to have had enough of dh and it's only 10 am

[manchestermummy]

As above.

He said no to all of my suggestions of what to do today and has instead planned a family bike ride. That would be fine but dd2 can't cycle at all (and refuses to try) and I don't even have a bike. After the bike ride dd1 and DD2 will get fish and chips from a chippie that's probably not even open,cycle back to the park where we will eat cold fish and chips (it's two miles from the chippie. Only I am trying to watch my weight and dd2 won't eat fish and chips, so I will have to make us a picnic. Which I can't be arsed with.

He does this all the time.

Sigh.

[manchestermummy]

Sorry, dd1 and dh will get fish and chips.

[Eebahgum]

Have you tried saying any of this to him? Would it be better for him to take dd1 and you go somewhere you suggested with dd2?

[slicedfinger]

Yanbu. Will he strop if you suggest alternatives?

[LordEmsworth]

He's planned a family bike ride, when you don't actually have a bike? Have you pointed this out to him?

[AgentProvocateur]

What was your suggestion? Apart from you not having a bike , your DH's day sounds lovely.

[HemanOrSheRa]

YANBU. How are you supposed to have a family bike ride if you don't have a bike?

[manchestermummy]

I'd be on board if I had a bike (we hire on holiday).

My suggestion was a trip out to the seaside. Rejected because it's too far.

Dh, however, was thinking where I said was in a different place, and actually too far. So when he realised he agreed.

It is typical dh to come up with a plan that largely suits him, though.

It does sound as though he hasn't thought it through properly. What with you not owning a bike and dd2 unable to ride one
