to be PMSL about poor dh?

[edam]

Took ds off to the London Transport Museum today. dh elected to stay home, promising he'd do loads of chores. ds and I got home about an hour ago, only to hear a strange wailing coming from somewhere... 'help! I'm stuck! Get me out!'

Dh had been stuck in the garage since 2.30. The daft sausage had gone in through the door from the kitchen and it had slammed shut behind him. And the big door for the car was locked. About 6ish he finally found a crate of lager. Mistake, as then he realised he needed a pee... but managed to find a styrofoam cup. Which he promises me he carefully placed in a bowl so he wouldn't knock it over (although he hasn't said which bowl - must go and check it wasn't a family heirloom in one of the boxes we've never unpacked since we moved...).

(Apols to anyone on the 'stupid injuries' thread, I have posted it there but was laughing so much I thought I'd check I'm not BU...)

i would laugh too tbh. yanbu

Some people will do anything to get out of doing the chores!

He's laughing about it himself now, thank heavens (was very ever so slightly grumpy when allowed out). Although he did come and demand 'right, what have you said on MN?'. I was able to answer, honestly 'nothing darling'... and then started this thread once he'd gone away again.

Are you sure he hasn't been pissing up all day and then pulled this stunt just as you arrived home

Pmsl at him though

DP did this at PIL's house. Worse still, FIL was shut in there with him. IIRC, they were in there for about two hours until MIL and I got back with the DCs.

They both forgot there was a key for the door to the back garden hanging on the door to the back garden.

laugh away

I just keep bursting out laughing every time I think of it in a not-terribly supportive little wifie way.

Tidy, that is even more daft - at least dh genuinely had no way of getting out! Apparently he did a little bit of tidying up while he was in there, he claims. In the dark though so God alone knows what chaos has ensued.

This reminds me of my colleague telling me about her teenage son. He left the house one morning, into the porch and shut the front door behind him. It locked. He didn't have the key to the porch door to be able to leave and didn't have the house key to get back in. He spent the entire day stuck in the porch and had to wee through the letter box in a moment of emergency.

2kids- that is bloody hilarious! I've just laughed out loud for ages. Poor boy!

OP- YANBU! Glad he can now see the funny side though ;-)

This as made a shit night better! Strange how the larger was in there

That's one way of getting out of doing housework!

2kids my ex did exactly the same thing, aged about 30 though. Was stuck in the lobby for 6 hours. Ha ha ha.

I accidentally locked my husband in the shed for an hour once. He was putting up shelves, I went out to ask him something and shut shed door after I left as it was a windy day. Unfortunately I forgot it was a gate style lock that you can only open from the outside. By the time he managed to attract my attention (luckily I was in the room looking out in the shed) he had started to dismantle things in the shed in the hope of fashioning a tool he could break out with. I have to confess I pmsl when I realised. He still wonders if I did it on purpose (I didn't!)

I accidently locked DH in the garage once. I heard banging but he was making a Dalek so I ignored it while wishing he would shut up. Then the power went off so I went down to tell him and found him very cross in the garage....
