Ugh.

Come home from a trying day and DH has put up the outside Christmas lights. I have no friffing idea why - he's got a massive snagging list for inside the house Hmm

Do I

A/ go in and mention that they'll need to come down?

B/ ask him to re erect in a less unseemingly fashion?

C/ drink gin and fuggetallabahtit?

I know I'm being a nob, but homsetly, this shizzle bothers me.

For clarity C/ isn't an option as gin isn't terribly Slim World friendly.

I thought this thread would be much ruder!

Go with C, do the inside jobs and tackle the erection when you are both ready to.

MyKingdomForBrie · 05/12/2017 22:41

You don’t say why they need to come down?

NotCornflakes · 05/12/2017 22:43

What? You want him to take them down just because there's other stuff he was meant to do first? YAB a grinch!

No I think she wants them to come down because he hasn't put them up very nicely? Is that it op?
I would go out tomorrow and do it myself. Other people never get it right Grin

NotCornflakes · 05/12/2017 22:49

Oh I see. Well, if it's because he hasn't put them up properly then I take it back - YAB entirely reasonable!

ChaosTrulyReigns · 06/12/2017 19:23

Absolutely not done it properly!

Inconsistency of loopage, ffsHmm

I took a photo, but I'm not outing myself on here! Grin

Might do a diagram...

You'll have to be subtle and sort them out when he's not home. Can't abide unequal loopage 😀
