Am I in the wrong here?

I would make a tea for him, but just full of laxtie, haha he will no choice but to get out of bed. Then I would hide all the bog roll as well, just so he gets the message

Either that or pull your trousers down a bit and stick a dicky bow on and tell them you might as well do it properly....

Kinda like this:

Its a real good job you added this picture because I had an entirely different picture forming in my mind ....Pull yer trousers down and put on a dickie bow eh? thats just kinky.

Haha having possession of a dirty mind myself I was well aware clarification was necessary

Well if he stays in bed:
1. How do you know he wants a cuppa
2. How do you know he's actually there, and not sneaked out whilst you were eating!

I wouldn't do it.

next time make two cups, one for him t'other for his fum chum. then tell him to come out closet and introduce fumchum!
ha ha

I would flatly refuse. If he can't be arsed to be sociable, then why bother?

But flymo, here's a more fundamental question.

Why are you allowing this to go on? I mean visiting your parents in law for Sunday lunch every weekend.

You are storing up a lot of trouble. Why don't you do what you want to do? I'd stop this if I were you.

And do it NOW - before its too late!

Simple answer - compromise.

Make him a cuppa, leave it on the table downstairs and bellow up, "Your tea's on the table." When he does surface some 30 minutes later hand him a cup of foul cold tea with scum on the top. Don't forget to say, "Oh, it's gone a bit cold, you'll probably need to pop it in the microwave", before he refuses to drink it.

If they've got silver top milk be sure to put the creamy bit into the cup that's going to be served cold. It's extra disgusting when it separates out.

Next time, when they insist you take it up to him, just be sure to finish your tea first. When his is unpleasantly lukewarm it's time to take it upstairs. In an emergency you can always add a dash of cold water to ensure it's at just the right temperature.

After two or three lukewarm cups if he's really whiny be sure to pop a really hot one in the microwave for 30 seconds before taking it up. (Take care it doesn't boil over onto your fingers).

Not sure I understand Ed. We get on perfectly, and the lunch is great. This is just a little thing that came up.

Simple answer is he's spoilt and I'm certainly not joining that game. If he comes out of his pit he gets a cuppa no problem. I'm not waiting on him though he can sod off.
