All the in laws coming for lunch today and I'm hungover to fuck

[CattingT]

Send help please.

I'm such an idiot. Why did I drink so much gin last night. It was just me and DH in front of the tv.

I have 5 in laws appearing for a roast at 1.30. Cooking meat is making me want to vom.

Face palm.

*isn't

Eat cheese.

[quote toomuchlaundry]@CattingT maybe today is the day he needs to learn how to cook a roast. What is he doing whilst you are cooking?[/quote]
He's mowing the lawn then he needs to clean the bathroom

@Burtknowsbest

Lots of Toby Carverys in the South East - obviously not one near you though! Helpful…

Ooh where?! I've never seen one down here.

I've already got the meat and potatoes on.

Oh nooooooo! Stay strong. Eat a banana and some ready salted crisps if you’ve got any. Drink water or weak squash but not too cold.

Order in.

Eat snacks and drink lots of coke/irn bru/lemonade.

Have a shower.

Take painkillers.

Or the broken oven idea could work. Depends if your husband is sympathetic or will rat you out.

Will any of the in-laws be sympathetic and help out if needed

There’s a toby carvery in Mitcham and a harvester in west Norwood. That doesn’t help your current situation though!

short cuts where you can. buy in the pud, accept offers of help, tell them you didn't sleep well

I’d have to start drinking again in order to be able to tolerate hosting a family dinner. Good luck to you OP.

Only hair of the dog can save you. Have a glass of vino or another gin and all your hungover worries will be over! 😜

Send him to the supermarket

Two rotisserie chickens
Ready mash
Frozen roasties
Tinned peas and carrots
Frozen yorkies
Bistro

He cannot possibly go wrong microwaving and timing in the oven. Jobs a good one. Back to bed for an hour meantime.

Start drinking again now. It's the only way.

The first one will not go down well but after about three you'll feel like a million dollars!

Hang in there.

It’s noon - hair of the dog is the way forward

beware the hair of the dog - I tried that once, never again!! 🤢 at the most, a glass with lunch so you its not too obvious you're hung over!!

I'd have to ask DH to do it, like I did when I had flu and a 2yo's party to cater for.

You have my sympathy, OP. I did that to myself a couple of weeks back. Only I felt so nauseous, I couldn’t even drink water, just retching out bile till 3pm. Fucking gin.

Im in the south east and i have three toby Carverys in my immediate area.

Buy hot rotisserie chickens and serve with (obviously cooked) frozen roasties, frozen cauliflower cheese, peas, pack of frozen root roasting veg ... you get the picture. Anyone, even useless cooks can prepare so you can have a long bath with plenty of coffee

Definitely hair of the dog 🤮

Rotisserie chicken.

I currently feel like I'm going to either puke or shit myself

Everything is in the oven.

I've sent DH to Waitrose for ready made Yorkshire puddings. I can't face doing my own today.

The thought of a roast at 1.30 would make me heave and Ive not been drinking...we've only just put the sausages in for breakfast

yes I know lots of people still have a roast Sunday lunch but we've got out the habit

He's never cooked a roast in his life then it's about time he learned.
