Right i had a phone call of my mum the other night she and my father have booked myself hubby and our son a holiday to butlins at the beginning of july for our 1st anniversary in june going later as son in nursery i'm really grateful! I'm sure we'll have fun!
But... i phoned my mum the other night to find out what accommodation we were staying in as i was looking at the butlins website and wanted to see what our apartment would be like, my sister answered the phone and said mum wasn't there so i asked her she said we are staying in silver band as standard looked a bit shabby to my dad.. right ok wicked i thought.
She then told me that mum and dad have booked a holiday to turkey around the same time and that she was going with them i said oh wicked that'll be nice for you we go on our holiday and you go on yours i was perfectly fine with this. Then my sister told me that my dad had priced up for the 3 of us to go with them and it was going to cost nearly 2 grand as its high season as its june-july. She then said my uncle had phoned to find out what hotel in turkey they are staying in 20 mins later he phoned back saying he my aunty and cousin have booked the same hotel and will be joining mum dad and my sis in the second week, i was a bit jealous when she told me this but i thought ah what the heck me, hubby and our son will have a great time, to find out that the holiday was a consolation to the fact that we can't go with them. The thing that really gets me is that my parents didn't even give us the option of going with them or not
So whilst the remaining close family i have left are sunning themselves in turkey for 2 weeks we get a week in butlins.
can anyone see my point or am i acting like a spoiled brat?
