Excuse me while I gloat here.......& yeah DH I hate to say it but "I told you do!". Bit of background......we have ss every Tues & Weds & every other wkend BM has him Mon & Thurs & every other wkend.So firstly last year BM was due to have ss on the weekend her hen do was planned so she e-mails DH & says " you need to have ss Thurs through to Mon morn as its my hen do".No please would you just you will do. I said to DH no she should make her own arrangements for child care as its her wkend.DH ignored what I said & agreed to have ss.Then a few months down the line BM informs DH that she wants to change the wkend rota as it clashes with her work rota on wkends.I said to DH I don't believe it and she obviously has something up her sleeve but anyway DH agreed but informed her as he is best man at his cousin's wedding he has planned the stag do for a weekend he was originally not due to have ss which if they change the wkend rota will now fall on his particular wkend so she would need to have ss for that particular wkend if he agrees to change in wkend rota.BM said of course she would.Subsequently we found out change in rota had nothing to do with BM work rota but because she wanted to have her son same wkend as her SD as she thinks its unfair that she doesn't have a kid free wkend.Anyway it is now 2 weeks before stag do & BM has informed she won't have ss after all-*shock!* *horror!* Really DH?!Now DH is moping about the house because he doesn't know what you do with ss for the stag wkend .I have made it crystal clear I WILL not be looking after ss as this was an arrangement strictly between HIM & BM & when I tried to tell him this a year ago he dismissed my concerns.Oh well DH not my problem you think you know best.

CaptainD I would rather chew my arm off.When I make my mind up I can be as stubborn as a mule.DH knows this which is why it has dawned on him he is snookered.Besides I had already arranged for one of my friends from out of town is coming to stay that wkend and we going to be having a full on girly wkend so "sorry DH no can do if you can't attend the stag do remember you doing it for YOUR kid .....& as YOU have a kid I'm sure you understand". }:)
