to divorce DH for this heinous crime??

After a bad few weeks, DH (bless him) brought me some chocolates which were lovely. He then nipped out to the shop and I asked him to bring some wine home - really looking forward to it.

He only bloody brought low-alcohol wine...

AIBU to divorce him for crimes against wine?

Yanbu Wine

I'll send you some. We had a party recently and there's tonnes left - my partner is on antibiotics and I'm breastfeeding so our kitchen is full and there's hardly space to move...

But yeh, LTB.

Lol don't worry mine was worse!! It was my birthday and I'd been working all day and was really looking forward to celebrating with a bottle of wine. My DP said he'd buy the food and make my birthday dinner. I asked him to buy a bottle of wine. I get home and ask for my wine and he face palms himself and said oh I bought a butternut instead!! A fucking butternut!! How the hell could he get mixed up with a bottle of wine and a butternut. Disappointed was an understatement 😂😂.

How did he buy a butternut instead of wine, Leigh?! At least I can understand how DH did it ("the bottle looked pretty") but.... how?!

I asked my husband to pick up some chocolate caramels at weekend as I was feeling sorry for myself. He brought back wine gums, I bloody hate wine gums (he loves them) Angry YANBU

Ha ha 😂😂😂. I've no idea, he's always getting things muddled up, but that definitely took the piss that time!

Poor OP, definitely divorce. today I was eating a chocolate biscuit (the last one) when my baby started crying. Realising it had suddenly got late I put the half biscuit down and hurried off to bath him, do bedtime routine etc. When I came back the biscuit was gone. I have actually updated my fb status to divorced am so cross (how old am I?)

China you could legitimately smother him in his sleep for that! Horrendous crime. ..

I went and bought a proper bottle today - and two mates for company

Unless he is on erythromycin he can drink.

OP don't ltb but do lock him out until he comes back with proper wine.

Newjobwoes · 06/05/2016 06:13

LTB, all of you, low alcohol wine, eaten biscuits, but BUTTERNUT!!!'

To the butternut PP, that's abuse, feel fee to PM me Flowers

ThumbWitchesAbroad · 06/05/2016 07:19

Shock at the denseness of these men!! Especially the one who can't tell the difference between a squash and a bottle of wine... Hmm

DisgraceToTheYChromosome · 06/05/2016 07:42

Kill him with HAMMERS.

Leigh1980 · 06/05/2016 13:55

Ha ha 😂 Newjob. The worst of it is he's even a chef! I said he should go to specsavers. 😳😎

Krampus · 06/05/2016 14:40

A gourd of wine? That's the only association I can think of with the butternut squash issue.
Getafix used to give Asterix his potion iin a gourd.

OP that is a heinous crime.

GrimmauldPlace · 06/05/2016 14:46

YADNBU! At least he didn't come back with a bottle of schleur (sp? That shitty 'grown up soft drink' crap) instead of wine like my DH did. Years ago that happened and I still bring it up.

Crinkle77 · 06/05/2016 14:56

Sashh you can't drink on Metronidazole either.

sashh · 07/05/2016 02:12

Shit, I meant Metronidazole, what made me type rubbish? Well spotted Crinkle77

x2boys · 07/05/2016 07:47

Was it deliberate or did he just not read the percentage often if I see a cheap.bottle of wine I think that's good value untill I realise it's 5%Hmm I have been married to dh for 11 yrs and he still forgets I m not really a chocolate person in prefer crisps and even when he does remember he gets me some crap flavourConfused
