Imagine you have worked half the weekend to prepare for a meeting.
Imagine that your daughter has conjunctivitis, and that your husband offers to stay at home so that you can get to that meeting, after he has selflessly taken over kidwrangling duties for a lot of the weekend.
Now imagine being the only one to turn up ... because the others had another date in their diaries.
And you learn the hard way to always confirm meetings that have been agreed in advance by
a) email
b) Google invitation
c) reminder
Remember - your own notes and your own memory are not binding!
