Hi dh has been drinking at a mates birthday since 2pm albeit not having much money this week. Has just rang me to say can I get some fags and bring them over to him in a taxi as dd in bed so can't go myself. He is a £13 taxi ride away wtf!

Fuck that, tell him he needs to come home if he wants fags.

jenwa · 04/01/2014 22:39

Haha natashabee good plan.
Why can't he walk to a shop?

ENormaSnob · 04/01/2014 22:40

Tell him get t'fuck.

Fool.

TobyLerone · 04/01/2014 22:40

Ignore him. What an arse.

Buzzardbird · 04/01/2014 22:41

He can call a taxi firm and they will do that for him. I suggest you ignore his selfish arse, lock the doors and go to bed.

Apparently all the shops are closed. Will get a phone call to book him a taxi home anyway in a bit

He doesn't have much money and he's out on the piss?! Oh and now he's ran out of fags, so he wants you to buy some and take a cab (waking up your DD in the process) and take them over to him?

Seriously, what the actual fuck?!

WitchWay · 04/01/2014 22:43

Tell him to smoke a tea bag - that's what we did as impoverished students Grin

Ifancyashandy · 04/01/2014 22:44

If he can ring you to 'order' fags, why can't he order his own cab to come home?

TobyLerone · 04/01/2014 22:44

Why can't he call his own cab to come home? Please don't that for him, OP.

jenwa · 04/01/2014 22:50

Are you sure this is your DH and not a child!!! Calling you to call a taxi??!! Confused! Go to bed and ignore the phone Wink

Salmotrutta · 04/01/2014 22:50

Do you mean he wants you to order the cab and get the driver to buy and deliver his fags?

Or does he mean for you to wake your child, order a cab, get in cab, buy him fags, and deliver these fags?

Are you his wife or his valet?

sheriffofnottingham · 04/01/2014 22:52

If he calls a taxi company they will probably pick some up and deliver them for him. DP is of the opinion that if you order a Dominoes pizza you can ask them to pick you up cigarettes on the way Hmm

alternatively there is the last resort of the desperate smoker, a rizla, a match stick and yesterday's full ashtray...

LynetteScavo · 04/01/2014 22:53

I bet he thinks he's genius to have concocted this plan.

He wants the taxi driver to deliver the fags so dd doesn't get woken up. I don't know why he can't order a taxi I do it every time - mug! Last time I had to help get his friend home too

EvaTheOptimist · 04/01/2014 22:57

Text him the taxi number and leave all the rest to him.

natwebb79 · 04/01/2014 22:57

What on earth possesses you to just go along with it?! Switch your bloody phone off and leave the piss taking man child to his own devices.

Sallyingforth · 04/01/2014 23:00

Tell him to burn his own money, not yours.

Buzzardbird · 04/01/2014 23:00

Jeez, if only you could put an old head on young shoulders :(

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 04/01/2014 23:03

Jesus Christ, what are you his mother? Actually scratch that, a grown man should not need ANYONE to look after him like that.
Turn your phone off and go to bed, OP.
