Just found out what I ordered online on Saturday night

I had a rare night out with colleagues on Saturday (the first since before COVID), with 2-3 drinks involved. When I got home DH and I had a single drink together and chattered about a few things we needed to sort out. And apparently during this chat I ordered something online, which I had completely forgotten about until this morning when the email confirming the order arrived.

No prizes but much kudos to the person who guesses right/closest!

I was going to guess naked cleaner. It's a real thing apparently.

Fuck me, that’s dull

3k... a bit underwhelming. But good for you! Do you need to get sponsorship?

REP22 · 20/09/2021 11:12

I bet they do really lovely curtains though. D'you think they'll come on the Vengabus? Wink

Seriously, money well-spent.

My DP has a bad habit of ' drunk ordering' I've now got Shitty Little Owl, he ordered a pair of punk tartan trousers, in a size that he'd have to oil himself up to get into, a brooch that was so hideous it went to the charity shop. On the other had I've also received some perfume I've been after for ages, and new glassware.

Please, OP, take a photo of this curtain bus when it turns up!

Ah, Chipperfish I now feel mean.

I have not bought anything remotely interesting since at least 2011.

At least you have the Scooby Doo suit glory days to look back on Wink

@3GreenPullups

I like the idea of a curtain bus!

I once bought a baby grand piano off ebay when pissed. Never mind that I do not play the piano and lived in a bedsit on the third floor at the time.

What happened ?

Adaeasypeeler · 20/09/2021 11:52

Someone to clean a penis beaker?

3GreenPullups · 20/09/2021 11:53

@shinynewapple21 I asked the very kind vendor to keep it until I could think of what to do with it.

never picked it up. (Never asked for my money back either as was too embarrassed.)

It cost a fortune, but has probably saved me a fortune as now I have a 'no ebaying when plonkered' rule.

Doesn't matter that you've revealed your awkward curtains to MN, in true Can't Be Arsed To Read The Updates fashion, the suggestions will continue now.

In that spirit, did you order a Brian Blessed lookalike to brighten up next Tuesday?

You opened a starling bank bank account
