After a particularly piggish day, he's just walked in with a selection of whoopsied Tesco party snacks and said , let's have these and snuggle in with a glass of wine. And they all cook at the same temperature!

He's a keeper.

Have a lovely evening 😉 🥘 💋

Fluffiest · 20/12/2019 18:52

That sounds like a lovely night. Enjoy!

ironicname · 20/12/2019 18:53

That's the stuff of long term love!

We're having pasta and wine and watching a film. There is nothing, nowhere and nobody that could be better!

I think mine's the other way. I came home last night with paprika pringles for dh. He's gone out with work tonight for a rare drink and I'm eating his pringles Blush

There's the secret to true love!

Party food dinner is the best!

BikeRunSki · 20/12/2019 19:08

I’d love that, but my DH has fallen asleep on the sofa. So that’ll be me taking DS to a d from scouts then. He hasn’t even been to work today

InTheShadowOfTheMushroomCloud · 20/12/2019 19:16

My DH has gone to work. He is a lorry driver for GIST - they are the M&S lorries. He has had all of his shifts changed to help get everyone's turkeys and pigs in blankets into the shops. He is knackered. He got in at 6am this morning and has just gone out to do the next shift - he won't be home until 6am tomorrow.
He is nearly 60 and on his knees bless him...he hasn't worked night shifts since he was in his 30s.
I have health problems and only work a few hours a month. He is doing all this work so we can have some extra money for clothes for me. He is definitely a keeper..

He says merry Christmas to you all and he doesn't want to see anymore pigs in blankets!

Mine is making steak and chips for dinner.

Hats off to your DH @InTheShadowOfTheMushroomCloud

katmarie · 20/12/2019 19:43

Mine has made some kind of spicy chicken stew which smells amazing, and is currently holding the baby and waiting to serve dinner while I put DS to bed. He also iced our Christmas cake today. And did dad duty with 8 week old dd from 6am til noon so I could catch up on some sleep. Hes a keeper.

Katinski · 20/12/2019 19:46

Intheshadow, another Merry Christmas to your DH from me, too! delivery drivers are the real unseen heroes, specially at this time of year.
Halo so please thank him from meStar

Dowser · 20/12/2019 20:21

Big thanks to everyone working in retail and it’s associated businesses to make sure Christa s is delivered
You are all heroes.

Dowser · 20/12/2019 20:22

Christmas

InTheShadowOfTheMushroomCloud · 20/12/2019 20:29

Aw thank you... he will be chuffed when I tell him. He is taking lots of Christmas food to M&S supermarkets in Merseyside tonight. He is working through to Christmas Eve but he says he likes it better the closer to Christmas it gets. He gets to deliver the red boxes to the shops and they hold your ordered food...he sees names and imagines the happiness it all brings.

We will be having an ALDI Christmas.....😂🎅

TripleSeptic · 20/12/2019 20:31

Sounds like a story board for next years Tesco Christmas ad 😂

InTheShadowOfTheMushroomCloud · 20/12/2019 20:34

Yes...with the ALDI twist!

And...DH has a longish white beard too...........true🎅

MrsPerfect12 · 20/12/2019 20:43

Defo a keeper! Enjoy. 🎅🏻🎄

izzybee55 · 20/12/2019 20:47

That was a lovely thread to read Smile

HappyHarlot · 20/12/2019 20:53

We're singing along to old TOTPs on BBC4 with a glass of wine and Maltesers.

DecemberSnow · 20/12/2019 20:57

Partner has asked what i want for dinner and has bought me tea in bed and the Christmas snacks 🎅🍫🍬
He said he will go out tomorrow and buy more ♥️

tell your husband from all many of us, that he is a total star and we totally approve of you loving him.
