...to have exacted my revenge in this way? <lighthearted>

[nevermindthecrocodiles]

In bed last night, DP patted my leg and went "Oooh, you're so...FLESHY" he saw my face and tried to backpedal. "No, I mean you're just lovely and squishy!" Still then tried to save himself with "Soft! Nice and soft!" Grrrr. I then went to sleep in a massive huff

This morning, in an obvious attempt to get back in my good books, he offered to pop to boots in his lunch break to pick bits and bobs up, and asked if there was anything he could get me - I said shower gel, soap, cotton wool pads....and a mooncup.

"Wait...what's a mooncup?"

"It's a brilliant type of hair product...get the assistant to show you where it is. Oh, and ask for a quick demo as well - just to be sure about how to use it"

When he left I was sniggering away...now I'm feeling slightly guilty. That was a bit too mean wasn't it?! But I'm NOT fleshy. Or squishy. I do have nice soft skin though

You are pure evil OP, I love it. Good on that assistant for giving such a...comprehensive demonstration though! Is your DP going to kill you?

And now I'm feeling sorry for the assistant whose wonderful mime was thrown back in his face .

Genius just genius. You are my new hero OP!

You are an inspiration to all of us!

I have just received a text from DP: "You are in big trouble. I am going to start calling you Squishy in public. MINX!"

He seems to have survived unscathed then.....

I'm a bit sad about the assistant though. May have to go back in and buy a mooncup just to praise his fabulous mime!

Omg that is VERY funny. Are you going to catch up with him (whilst crying with laughter).

Oh this has made my afternoon.

You'll have to watch out for his revenge though. If my DH did something like that to me I couldn't let it go, I'd have to something really EVIL. He'll be plotting, mark my words.

Brilliant!

All hail NeverMind!!! That is definitely a memory to savour
However, I am a little bit that your DH still thinks you are a minx...bet you can think of some way to get out of big trouble tonight!!

This has really made me laugh.

I'd watch your back OP. He's plotting his revenge I bet!

Is this really true OP?

If so, it's the funniest thing I've ever read on mumsnet!

You are cruel..... very clever though.

Won't someone tihnk of the poor sales assistant in Boots, having to mime the insertion of female sanitary products in public to another bloke?

Poor lad having to wave his leg around for your amusement.

Votes nevermindthecrocodiles in charge of the revenge department!!

Oh my! Too funny. That has made me really laugh!

Too funny. You really should have recorded it on your phone op!

Genius. Bravo I'm still laughing at the thoughts of the mime and your poor DP's face.

Brilliant, laughing hassle my headache worse but it was so worth it.

Haha I like it. I would also be wary of revenge attempts though.

He threw the box back at the assistant . Really? I don't believe a word of this story.

Oh god. Hilarious. Wish I'd never told my dp what a mooncup was and then I could have used this trick on him.

worsestershiresauce it is true, I promise - I'm not a fantasising mooncup troll! Although having read it back I do concede that it sounds very mad indeed...next time I will just tell him he's squishy too. Less hanging round Boots like a slightly confused shoplifter that way!

Oh Im not sure if this is for real or not buy I dont care. I LOVE it. My chest hurt from laughing so hard.

OP I love you.

I thought you would like an update...DP has just waltzed through the door with a boots bag - and took out a mooncup! And said (full and exact quote!) :

"Here you go. Right size too, I checked. And I know how it works. I'm not afraid, because I'm a REAL MAN!"

My tummy is actually hurting from laughing! Unfortunately I bought myself a mooncup from the marvellous mime boy earlier (massive surge of guilt) and my DM bought me one when she went shopping this afternoon because she thought it was "wrong" of me to "bully" DP - I will be drowning in mooncups soon. Perhaps I could have a mooncup museum...

But ah, bless him, he's so proud of himself!! I expect the return to boots must have taken a lot of bravery oooh I do love him!
