A little tounge in cheek, But................. How annoying is it when "Friends" orginise functions that fall on long weekends.

Late last year I was invited to a fishing comp in Maude NSW on the Murumbidgie (I think) on the Australia day weekend, the missus says fine! no problems enjoy yourself, but something rings a bell on that weekend!............whoo hoo I think, as for me there's NOTHING better than camping on a river with some ripper fellas, chasing Murray Cod (C&R only)

A couple of weeks ago that "bell" rang annoyingly loud when we re-read an invite to a good couple's combined 50th on this Saturday night, they are good friends (not great) but i feel obliged to go (with a little help from you know who)

A few weeks ago I was only disapointed at the timing of the two occasions, but as I sit here doing bugger all just waiting for sat'dy night, knowing I could be on the road with boat in tow dreaming of Greenfish to be caught and drinks to be had and stories to be told.....ahhhhhhghhhhh.

The trouble is doing the "right" thing doesn't earn me the browny points I deserve I reckon, as knowone truly feels the hurt..........Except of course for my fellow EO forumites.

(Sigh) Still don't feel anybetter, anyone else stuck home this weekend due to "inconsiderate" invites!

Browny
