DH has washed his golf clubs on a White Company towel...

[Teamumizumi]

... And now I can't get the grass stains out. He's colour blind so he can't see how much damage he's done. Should i just get his credit card and buy two more ( plus a present for me while I'm at it?)

I'd be furious too, yadnbu. His golf clubs would be down a deep hole at this stage

Squeakytoy - you have obviously never used their soap and hand cream. Nothibg to do with class, ALL to do with divine smells!

I don't think a grass stain will make it less fluffy and luxurious. It's just a different colour.

Gerroverit.

Don't buy things you cannot afford!

haggisfish doesnt everyone??

I also thought you meant a white towel from his place of work

SoleSource - she didn't, it was a wedding present!

my visitor hand towels are just from H & M (but they do have pretty vintage pics of soap and toothpaste on ).

before i realised that i also have 'special' towels i was going to tell op to get over it, but now i may have to lay down quietly instead.

Its a towel, get a grip!

This has got to be a contender for the most middle england provincial MN thread title ever

Ha ha Noddy! Scroll up

Drip feeding, drip drying OP..

Leave the towel abusing bastard.

Oh and colour blindness does not prevent someone seeing a whacking stain on something white. My father is colour blind and while his clothing combinations can be a bit.......eclectic at times, he can tell if something is stained!

Buy the new towels but also figure out what you can use the golf clubs for - inappropriately obviously! - to hammer home that just because something looks like it could do a job, it doesn't necessarily mean that it should be used for the job when there are plenty more appropriate things around to use instead. Or maybe threaten to use them for if he might use any minor, inconsequential damage to old clubs as an excuse to buy new ones at your expense.

First thing that springs to mind - hammer obviously. Beyond that - umm lever, stick for rescuing things in the garden, walking stick, errr, errr hopefully you'll think of others!

Bogeyface - the towel is blue. DH cannot see green or purple or pink. The towel is not white.

All you mad White Company Hating Bastards, try the hand cream. It is seriously better than sex.

In future, tell him if it doesn't actually have the word GOLF woven into it, he can't use it for cleaning golf stuff. He could get these sorts of towels from a golf shop himself. My DH plays golf, and while not colour blind would never use anything that looked like an ordinary towel to clean his gear. I give him old facecloths though, he says they are handy to wipe clubs and golf balls if they get a bit muddy during a game. The permitted towels/cloths live in the garage with the rest of his gear.

If you can't get the stains out at all, I think it would be politic of DH to replace the ruined towel, or risk reduction of the amount of games he is allowed to play as a punishment. Or you could buy him golf towels for his birthday or Christmas presents just to make the point clearly.

This is an issue of respect for the things in your home, regardless of their cost.

I am now a little scared of beliveInpink

Haha, I'm a pussy cat.

Seriously. Buy the cream.

Ecover stain remover gets out most stains. Give it a rub then wash on cold--hot helps stains to set. Don't tumble dry unless the stain is gone. I would put the nice towels separate and put a note on them "use only for (whatever)" and designate some rags for cleaning dirty stuff.

Give him the towel, replace with a nice new one and make sure he knows how much they cost. He'll find a J-cloth in future or use his swanky "new" towel
I feel your pain - we got some nice ones as wedding presents which are still unused as my DH insists on drying his old fashioned razor on the (not expensive) bathroom hand towels. The blade keeps nicking the towels so that they now all look like we have a bad case of moths! I refuse to break out the nice new fluffy wedding gifts until he stops !!! How ridiculous is that.

I am very reluctant to buy expensive towels etc especially after I caught DH using one of these
uk.spacenk.com/Lift-Sculpt-Cleansing-Cloths/MUK200005031,en_GB,pd.html?start=7&cgid=SPUK3010110
to wipe the kitchen work surfaces.

No DH not all cloths on the clothes horse are for wiping up spilt coffee

He wipes his golf clubs on your towels?
Watch he doesn't wipe his apendage on your curtains!

You could ring TWC and see if they have any magic suggestions - may be they'll take pity on you if you mention it was a wedding present.
