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?)

Glad it was just his clubs.

Imagine the fate of the poor bugger if he'd wiped his balls with them.

This is the funniest thread I have seen for ages. Thank god I logged on at work to see this, my life has been seriously enhanced.

What next week? How to get off Spelt that has been whelded to the bottom of the Le Creuset?

Leave the bastard. Not because of the towel, but because he plays golf.

Ha ComposHat I was just a out to post exactly that!

I disagree,the white company ime is really good quality,i havnt got their towels but i have got duvets and bedding from there and its amazing.well worth the extra cash.

I'd make him dry himself after the shower on his golf clubs towel for the next fortnight :)

Use one of his golf clubs to unblock a drain / price open the shed door / hammer in some tent pegs.

If he's the kind of guy to wipe his golf clubs on a posh towel, I bet he wipes his knob on the curtains too.

What an arse.

The curtains are probably Laura Ashley

And ignore the reverse snobbery.

We were given a set from my parents as 1st wedding anniversary present. Over 10 years later, still as beautiful and fluffy as the day they were bought.

Well, you have a towel trauma. I have had a paint trauma today.

Oh for heaven's sake

If you want to buy White Company towels - fair enough.
If he has wrecked them and you think the replacement should come from his spends rather than his - fair enough.

However:
First of all, instead of splashing the cash, just try a bit harder to get the stains out. Fair enough to expect him to do that - although as this is just one of those things that happen in life, I don't it "has" to be him.

Secondly, why the punitive measures just because he doesn't know that some old towel is a 'special towel'? Get over it. Unless he went to a locked cupboard with a big sign on it saying "herein lie the special towels, no golf club wiping allowed" how's he supposed to know?

But finally, and to me really most importantly... WTAF is it with "he ruined my special towel, so therefore I get to spend his money on a present for me?"
Really?
REALLY?
What kind of relationship is that?

If (and it really is an IF in this case) your husband has done something wrong, then he should apologise and make amends - by cleaning the towel, or getting another one. But I totally fail to see where you getting a present comes in to this.

miltons is great for stuff like this

use his golf club to knock in some nails that will teach him

Shouldn´t he be trying to clean it or making the effort to replace it?

... I wish I had towels that were just for show. But then where would the fun be in a towel you are only meant to look at and not use?

I have to say I'm more of a user of towels rather than an admirer of posh bathroom attire.

Agree with everything Cabrinha said ^^

But will add that putting butter on the handles of golf clubs works really well...

the punitive measures just because he doesn't know that some old towel is a 'special towel'?

I must admit some of the suggestions for the 'punishment' of a fully grown adult made me a bit .

No don't ignore the reverse snobbery!!

It's hilarious

Snigger

Mine aren't just for show. The set from my parents has lasted 10 years of being used at least once a fortnight and washed at 90 every other wash.

Does this rank better or worse than 'leaving an Emma Bridgewater mug on the compost heap'?

Hmm, £50 for a White Company 'super jumbo towel'? I'll take 7.

£38.25

My bath towels are excellent from Dunelm Mill about £10 each. I sed to have white but learned a lesson there and have black now.
