Hurrah!

Love DH v v much, but I like it when he goes on a night out!

I'm going to scoff a Chinese and a bottle of fizz, and I'm trying to decide what utter shite to watch. I'm leaning towards old ANTM or maybe Greys Anatomy.

Does anyone else love when DH clears out for a night?

Oh god this thread has made me so jealous. DP used to work occasional night shifts, and I absolutely LOVED it. I'd settle myself down with a bottle of wine and Netflix, order a takeaway and have an absolutely lovely night.

Then he moved into another job with no nights, no weekends - it's been great for us as a family and is definitely better for him, I don't usually begrudge it... this thread has made me nostalgic for the old days though!

Sounds like bliss… enjoy!

I love it when DH goes out for the night, he has 3 Christmas parties lined up over the next Month and I can't wait for all of them! Enjoy your night OP! WineThanks

Don't watch shite, watch The Outlaws on BBC iPlayer. You can thank me later.

chonkybuoy · 18/11/2021 19:19

I love that everyone else likes to do this too!

Once I've finished my take away and wine what is your pissed dancing around the kitchen choice?

I'm thinking Despacito and Gangnam Style tonight, they're my usual wine dances. Might give the cat a few Boyz to men serenades. I have until at least 2am before DH gets back.

Dancing on my own to allll the music I like is my favourite part 🍷 💃

Mine is out too. I love it!! TV to myself. Can watch whatever crap I want with no complaints. He was also out earlier in the week. I treated myself to take out Sushi. DH doesn’t like it. It was a proper extravagance.

JesusInTheCabbageVan · 18/11/2021 19:51

@waltzingparrot love Outlaws so much! Just finished episode 5 so only one more to go...

Evvyjb · 18/11/2021 20:19

Mine too! Watching "showtrial", bottle of wine, curry is ordered.

Thursday night of CHAMPIONS

Im so annoyed, DH told me today he isn't going out on Saturday after all Sad he wasn't pleased when I looked unhappy about it! Love him to bits but he mainly works from home and I just want some peace!

BigYellowHat · 18/11/2021 21:38

I didn’t know that there was a second series of Tiger King, how did I miss that??? I know what I’m going to be watching next.

scooterbear · 18/11/2021 21:49

Dp is also out. We are still in the honey moon phase where I actually miss him a bit Blush. However I've laced about with the dogs, caught up with succession and had an m and S microwave meal for tea and it's not been half bad Wink

Timeisavirtue · 18/11/2021 22:17

Oh yes, I usually have to contain my enthusiasm.... I love DP dearly but oh my god he can be annoying. He calls and says you don’t mind if I go out do you..... sometimes I answer before he’s even finished asking the question....😜
