Tonight i had a bath with a glass of wine and a bowl of peanuts. I knocked the peanuts into the bath and spent the rest of my time in the water fishing them out.

Heartily disappointed. You?

Ran out of wine Sad

Did you eat the watery peanuts? Grin

JustStayAtHome · 28/03/2020 20:27

the British public......biggest disappointment

No 30th birthday party tonight 😭

Whatdayisit2 · 28/03/2020 20:29

Not enough chocolate

Pigsnduvets · 28/03/2020 20:31

Somehow ended up on The Daily Mail website. I was disappointed in the content, the bullshit & myself for even going there!

😂

No fruitybum, not quite desperate enough for that yet. Did consider the health benefits of washing the salt off though Smile

The pot noodle I bought for isolation treats has milk in it 😭

Sad to hear about your 30th. Lots of proper disappointments happening. Big hugs 🤗

It was supposed to be my hen do this evening. Gin isn't helping.

MuddyPuddlesAndPrettyBubbles · 28/03/2020 20:41

My food shopping came but they didn't bring my crisps. Not even any substitutions.

But then I weighed myself and suddenly ok with having no crisps in the house.

Artinsurance · 28/03/2020 20:41

The British Public and the Daily Mail are always disappointments, sadly 😕

OP posts:
Artinsurance · 28/03/2020 20:42

Are you at least having a Zoom gin Delilah? Thanks

OP posts:
Artinsurance · 28/03/2020 20:43

With your friends that is. Don't want to recommend drinking on your own (I wasn't 😜)

I assume milk is off limits wibble? I think that fits in the realms of proper disappointments

OP posts:
Artinsurance · 28/03/2020 20:45

No crisps? But no temptation. Always good to see a silver lining Halo

Yea. Dumbass baby is allergic to it.

RJnomore1 · 28/03/2020 20:45

The chip shop is shut.

That was a let down.

MuddyPuddlesAndPrettyBubbles · 28/03/2020 20:47

Oh Delilah what a shame :(

Wewearpinkonwednesdays I had swine flu on my 28th birthday and gallstones on my 30th. I've given up on birthdays a bit. You shouldn't though, have a MEGA 30.5th birthday instead.

Artinsurance · 28/03/2020 20:49

Our Chinese is shut RJ. I feel your pain 😕

Artinsurance · 28/03/2020 20:52

Ok. We are now on to eating up the vegetarian party food left over from Christmas and trying to decide what film to watch. I hope you all have some lighthearted disappointments that you can smile about to offset the real ones or none of either.

@Artinsurance no, but had lots of messages from my hens which meant a lot. Made a nice meal with dp and tried not to dwell.

WisestIsShe · 28/03/2020 20:56

My favourite mug, which I have had for twenty years (!) has a big, leaking crack Sad
In the great scheme of things it's not at all important but it made me sad.
