Been Let down by a caterer?

[cmp]

Today was our local Mother & Toddler Christmas party. With lots of food, music, games and Santa a typical children’s party.

The party was to start at 11am a decent time for young children. Unfortunately we were let down by the caterers, we had to phone them at 1030am, they said they sent an email on Thursday saying they were unable to do it for us……but did they……..NO, she didn’t, Not even the decency to phone and let us down.

Luckily for us, we all gathered round and were able to supply food and had a wonderful party.

The kids loved Santa.

That's a good solution when you have the right group of people. However, when not all the mums (not my sexist remark, just my quote) are able or have the time or whatever to join in, there is usually someone who gets annoyed and points out the fact.

If you pay someone to do a thing, they should be professional enough to come up with the goods.
