It's much nicer on Mumsnet. They know how to treat successful contractors over there. Probably due to the number of single mums and mums whose husbands have pissed off to the pub to get some peace and quiet.

Provide the food and entertainment yourself. Play games with the kids. Why the lack of imagination?Originally posted by MarillionFan View PostDaughter is 5 next month. The wife(who doesn't work but think's that money is something that the cash point fairy just conjours up) has booked the local church hall.
4 hours at £15 per hour. OK. Sorted with that.
And hired a bouncy castle. £60. Fine with that
And booked a children entertainer and magician. £200 for two hours. WTF! £100 PER HOUR!!
And paid caterers to do the food £120!!!! WTF £120 for the a childrens ******* party!
£440 for a four hour childrens party!!! WTF!!!!
Is this excessive? She thinks that's what it should cost!Comment
