Depending on your DH job you might get death in service benefits on his pension too? wink

Hmmmmm £100k not all that much really - and you'll probably get caught and sent to prison so for £100k I wouldn't risk it. It would have to be at least 2 million before I took the risk.

Also, whatever method you use, there will be evidence. I've been married a long long time so I've given this subject a lot of thought over the years and I have to say I have only ever come up with one method of disposing of someone and not leaving any proof behind.

Send him round here to stand next to our garden wall with the neighbour and DH we could get 3 done all at the same time!

Yes I agree £100,000 not really worth the hassle. You'd be better off becoming a high class prossie or finding a richer man.

Not sure that posting your intentions on MN is a great start to the perfect murder though. grin

Is he ugly Twinkie? Have you thought of shagging him and destroying him emotionally? He might move then.

There is always the Roal Dahl leg of lamb way though. Clock him on the head with it then roast it and serve it to the investigating policemen for dinner. Gets rid of the murder weapon. grin

I should up the cover a little first if I were you. Don't do it yourself though cos Columbo will cotton on straight away. Spend time convincing him he needs to up it. Actual murder methods up to you- not really much of speciality here I'm afraid.

Is this a new MN concept- the all woman hit squad? I think we might need a separate topic for it though...
Contact the poster Contact mumsnet about this post By JohnsonsIsBest on Sat 17-May-08 20:36:06
WEll there are some ideas here for me, i know £100K isnt a kings ransom or anything but he is driving me nuts at the mo. Is constantly talking about women he works with and sometimes I think this house would be a lot more fun with just DD and me!!

well, you could research poisons?
or is he allergic to anything?
if he cant swim, then you can always push him off a boat.
Contact the poster Contact mumsnet about this post By JohnsonsIsBest on Sat 17-May-08 20:41:43
he can swim
he says he is allergic to anchvoies and never has them on pizzas but i think he is BSing

try blitzing them in a food processer and adding to the pasta sauce. you will know if he is bsing for sure then.

I like the hemlock idea. i think i'm gonna post undr another topic about his comstant comments about women, then quietly plan an anchovy poisoning......

My friend's 'd'h is allergic to wasps. She found a massive hornet type thing in her lounge the other day while he was at work. She left it there. shock grinwink

Unfortunately He managed to kill it using a whole can of wasp spray when he got home.

I definitely think allergies are the best way to go without getting caught.

I have life insurance for £150000 and I'm a bitch, should I be worried hmm

Oh not unreasonable at all! Quite frankly I would kill the cock right now if I could get away with it, regardless of money!

Miserable tosser

Message
Emphasis: To bold a word, surround it with asterisks, so *hello* will display hello. For underline use _ , so _hello_ gives hello. For italics use ^, so ^hello^ gives hello. To strike out a word, surround it with two hyphens either side, so --dog-- gives dog

Links and smileys: To insert a smiley face,  , type [smile] or :)
For a big grin,  , type [grin] or :o
For a wink,  , type [wink]
For a shocked face,  , type [shock]

For an embarrassed face,  , type [blush]
For a sad face,  , type [sad] or :(
For an envious face,  , type [envy]

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
