How long do we wait?

[Salty]

We invited our neighbors to dinner today. The agreed time was 2 pm. It is now 215 pm. How long should we wait until we start eating?

Salty

and I am getting hungry?

If they are your only guests, I'd say to give them a call to be sure they are coming. If I'm having someone at 2PM, I don't plan on lunch being until 2:30 to give them time to get here. If I was eating at 2, I'd say something like "We'll eat at 2 so why don't you get here at 1:30 or 1:45." That way they know when to get there and when we're going to eat.

So I'd give them a buzz.

They live downstairs (2 apt bldg). and they are not at home. And yes, they are the only ones comming

Mrs Salty is hungry, so I must go - we are eating!!

 

[SaggyWoman]

I would say go ahead and eat.

So did they come then, expecting to dine, or had they just stood y'all up??

Inquiring minds want to know!!??:laugh:

Remind me to show up at your house on time the next time you invite me over.
