Sick to fuckers of cooking , doing dishes and cleaning house. I'm a farmers wife and have 4 kids and quite frankly need a break so iv ordered Chinese and got a bottle of chardonnay chilling.

Enjoy! I'm also tired of cooking this Christmas. Chilled white wine sounds bloody lovely!

WorraLiberty · 28/12/2016 18:18

We can't order takeaway for delivery as none deliver as far out as we are 😔 DH is picking up salt and pepper chicken wings, sweet and sour king prawn, prawn crackers and pineapple fritters on his way home though. I couldn't drive as I've had a four glasses of Baileys. Enjoy OP.

Verticalvenetianblinds · 28/12/2016 18:25

Fuck it! Make sure you drink lots of wine Grin I've put the baby to bed early and sent dh to the pub so I can have a bath in peace!!

MrsBungle · 28/12/2016 18:33

She's probably just jealous OP. Grin

I know I am...

Enjoy your night!

Emmerdalefan · 28/12/2016 18:45

Enjoy your takeouts everyone. Hey we all need a break every now and again. I often wish I was one of those women who's husbands cook and clean. My dh is admittadly busy 7 days a week every day of year on our dairy farm but he can just about muster up making coffee and cereal haha x

Get in there!

Enjoy the wine more, that's the best bit.

(Tone doesn't come across well here but that was obviously meant in a light hearted way not a snidey or bitchy way!)

AlabasterSnowball · 28/12/2016 19:02

That sound lovely, what are you having? I love a Chinese takeaway

crazyoldfish · 28/12/2016 19:05

I think I would be thinking Chinese and wine? Chinese and beer- yes. Chinese and wine- less so. Maybe just the wine?

Frouby · 28/12/2016 19:07

We had takeaway last night.

Have just spied out of ds window to see if the chip shop is open (it is). Dp is waffling about pie and peas.

I am thinking kebab and chips.

In my defence I have been doing slimming world since May and promised myself Christmas off. So have been making the most of it. Only a few days left. Out nye and cooking nyd. Then back on it so a couple of days to eat shite really.

MrsMozart · 28/12/2016 19:08

Enjoy!

I don't do the cooking, but I ordered takeaway last night so nobody else (in our house) had to cook either.

Emmerdalefan · 28/12/2016 19:15

WE are waiting of kung po chicken with cashews and egg rice and deep fried shredded beef in Cantonese sauce with rice. A bag of chips and some prawn crackers xx

Why on earth would you be unreasonable?

DearMrDilkington · 28/12/2016 19:20

Yanbu, kung po chicken is my favourite! EnjoyGrin

AlabasterSnowball · 28/12/2016 19:22

That sounds delicious YADNBU enjoy

Muddlingalongalone · 28/12/2016 19:25

Gonna do the same as soon as Dd2 deigns to fall asleep - I've got no excuse apart from being lazy & loving Chinese. Cider is my accompanying refreshment of choice

SquidgeyMidgey · 28/12/2016 19:30

YANBU OP. We got a Chinese to go with the Agatha Christie last night. Enjoy!

fruitbats · 28/12/2016 19:30

Has Worra been hacked Confused

Sounds fantastic to me. Enjoy

plominoagain · 28/12/2016 19:33

I'd love a Chinese but I can't be arsed to go and get it and they don't deliver.

So it's two rounds of egg and bacon sandwiches here each with a side order of garlic mushrooms and my first Baileys of Christmas , as I've worked nights all the way through from Xmas eve until this morning.
