to ask WHERE he has put the WINE?

DH has gone out. He had half a bottle of wine just before I got in but I cannot find the bottle anywhere. I've checked the recycling (in case he finished it) but it's not there, nor anywhere else I can think of. He hid it once before and it was behind a curtain...

Ideas?! Shock

Taken it with him?

Bluntness100 · 30/08/2017 21:57

Can't you just go get some more? Do you only have one bottle and then he hides it? Can you not just make sure you have enough in for both of you? Hmm

whereohwherehasmylittledoggone · 30/08/2017 21:57

Unlikely... he's gone to the pub to meet a friend. The friend never meets him anywhere else

Why do you only have one bottle of wine a time in the house?!

ImperialBlether · 30/08/2017 21:58

Under a cushion. Under his pillow for later. Under the bed. Rolled under the sofa.

LittleBearPad · 30/08/2017 22:00

Ring him and ask?

The fridge, a cupboard?

TeeBee · 30/08/2017 22:00

Wardrobe.
But really...LTB.

PebblesFlintstone · 30/08/2017 22:01

Down by the corner of the sofa? In the garage? DH is a sneaky wine-hoarder.

Whisky2014 · 30/08/2017 22:01

Fridge?

whereohwherehasmylittledoggone · 30/08/2017 22:01

bluntness I can't go out, kids are asleep. Anyway, it's not so much that I want to drink it, it's more of a silly game we play, but he's not beaten me yet! I tease him that he drinks it too often and then he hides it... but dammit I can't find it this time! I will not lose Grin

good ideas imperial

Washing machine? Tumble dryer?

Wheresthattomoibabber · 30/08/2017 22:03

In his car.

dudsville · 30/08/2017 22:03

Bathroom cupboards.

MrsJamesAspey · 30/08/2017 22:04

Where have you found it before?

elephantoverthehill · 30/08/2017 22:04

Was it red or white? Red will be inside, perhaps tucked behind a door frame, white will be outside somewhere.

Notsoaccidentproneanymore · 30/08/2017 22:05

Do you have a pair of wellingtons he could have slipped the bottle into?

Or the freezer?

Under the sofa?

weebarra · 30/08/2017 22:05

Behind a curtain? In a cupboard?

Damia · 30/08/2017 22:08

Do you roll your towels to store them. If so in the middle? Ditto other laundry. Laundry basket?

Rosieposy4 · 30/08/2017 22:10

Rolled in a sleeping bag?

maudeismyfavouritepony · 30/08/2017 22:13

Cleaning / broom cupboard
Behind the loo (euggh)
Behind the TV / bookcase
Under his pillow
In the kids bedroom
In the toy cupboard
In the oven
In the shoe cupboard

Could be anywhere really

dangermouseisace · 30/08/2017 22:16

I've got it! It's me Wine No you can't have it back

whereohwherehasmylittledoggone · 30/08/2017 22:19

Doh, thought I had it then! There was a piece of a marble run under the sofa and it looked just like the neck of a bottle...

The thing is he's awful at hiding things. it's a relatively new 'game' and all previous hiding places have been just standing behind curtains/on windowsills/behind a box in the pantry etc. Simple places. Also they're usually cork rather than screwtop so have to stay upright. I've looked in all the places suggested but nope.

I'm beginning to think he drank the whole lot and took the bottle with him to the recycling point which is not far from our house and on the way to the pub...
