If you were intending to give someone a bottle of wine ......

[BigSandyBalls2015]

...... would you turn up on their doorstep with a case of it?

DDs friends mum did this on xmas eve, as a thank you for giving her girl lifts to the sport they do. I'd had a little drink , and sort of took the box from her, saying how very generous, what a lovely thing to do! really no need etc etc.

DH has been winding me up ever since saying she only intended to open it and give me a bottle, and prob had five more mates to visit .
I keep thinking about it and going hot and cold!! How embarrassing, but who would do that? You'd come to the door with one brittle surely?

The dates puzzled me as last few said 3rd Jan. Then looked and was 2016

Great update tho

Her own fault. No one brings 6 bottles of wine or bubbly to door if driving , to give one 🍸🍸🍸🍸🍸🍸🍸

Love this thread, and the update

Cringe all over again

Oh dear .

Showed this to DH.

We were both nearly laughing tears ;)!

Thanks for the update OP, needed cheering up

Ah OP I remember this thread entertaining me last year when I had a newborn 3 week old. At least we know now

Brilliant update. Elephant in the room Ha Ha. Bet you didn't socialise with them much this year?

Just read all this brilliant, I'm sure it was all for you because who would bring 5 extra bottles of wine to the door when they didn't need to? Did she ever hint throughout the year that it wasn't all for you?

That's hilarious!

This was brilliant.

Was ready to comment "keep it all" then I noticed the date...

I'm of the opinion that if she didn't want you to take it all then she shouldn't have brought it all in.

I was reading this, thinking I was having deja vu - brilliant update. Why haven't you ever asked?

I remember this. Cant believe a year has gone so quick.

I remember this too from last Jan! Thanks for the update! So funny

I find it strange to suggest that someone would lug a box of wine to your door and expect to give you one bottle from it. Who does that? The box is yours, OP. Enjoy!

Bwahahahahhahaa well done OP. Next year you so need to turn up on her doorstep with a half-case of prosecco

Ah, just read through. She obviously learned a valuable lesson!

I love this thread
This is when mn is just brilliant. She needed scissors,your dd was right.

Lol....fantastic update! What on earth did u say when she presented you with just one bottle?

OP you're a total star for updating this, nice one

It's so satisfying to get a really interesting update!

🥂😂

Oh I remember this thread! The 'slight tussle' cracked me up! Well done OP on the update. Cheers!

Fantastic update
OP, did you ever invite her over to drink the wine?

This thread has made me smile :-)
Slight tussle lol lol
