DH has an inbuilt distrust of internet shopping so when I placed my Ocado Christmas order he became very agitated and insisted that all the fresh vegetables be removed as he wished to choose them himself.

OK, I say. If you wish to visit the supermarket on the busiest day of the year to buy exactly the same items that would have been carried straight into our kitchen then who am into argue? Vegetables were removed.

This morning, on his way to the gym he suggested I might like to go to Waitrose this evening to purchase the Christmas fucking vegetables whilst he enjoys a drink at the pub. After he’s finished playing golf. Xmas Shock

I have explained in good Anglo Saxon English that this will not be happening. Oh, and it’s his family coming, not mine. Xmas Grin

AIBU to suggest he is the CF of the day?

I hope you said no, go yourself!

Aridane · 22/12/2017 13:02

ha ha

FlouncyDoves · 22/12/2017 13:03

Ha. Good effort on his part though.

fortifiedwithtea · 22/12/2017 13:04

YANBU I'd have given him a robust response. Tell him to shove sprouts where the Sun don't shine.

retainertrainer · 22/12/2017 13:04

What’s CF?

pictish · 22/12/2017 13:04

I hope you told him to get to fuck.

Hahahhaahaaa.
He can fuck off.

Cantuccit · 22/12/2017 13:08

I hope he's cooking and hosting!

JeNeBaguetteRien · 22/12/2017 13:08

Matilda well done for telling him where to go (the supermarket!) rather than starting a thread about being in a 2 hour queue clutching the last scrawny parsnips available.

To retainertrainer CF is Cheeky Fucker.

dramaticsigh · 22/12/2017 13:09

YANBU!! What an arse!

yawning801 · 22/12/2017 13:09

retainer CF stands for Cheeky Fucker... which this H definitely is!

babyturtles · 22/12/2017 13:09
Shock

Surely he realises even if the Christmas Vegetables hadn't arrived with the shop, he's still having to go to the shop, just as he would have if they hadn't arrived?

Cheeky Fucking Fool

Bippitybopityboo · 22/12/2017 13:10

You have a true festive CF on your hands op. YANBU Xmas Grin

metalmum15 · 22/12/2017 13:10

Haha, as if! As long as you have meat and pudding you don't need vegetables! Or ring his family and tell them they'll have to provide their own because he's too busy socialising to buy any 😆

CiderwithBuda · 22/12/2017 13:11

Did he suggest it with a straight face? He's brave. I'll give him that. A brave CF.

My DH wasn't keen on getting veg in th Sainsbury's delivery which came last night but he went and got them himself this morning.

Butterymuffin · 22/12/2017 13:12

Glad you told him where to go. Not that there'll be anything left in the evening. When he returns crestfallen with a battered bag of sprouts, tell him it's either him getting up at dawn to try the supermarket again tomorrow, or baked beans with Christmas dinner. Xmas Grin

LemonRedwood · 22/12/2017 13:14

Good response Matilda.

My DH suggested I "pop" to Waitrose today to buy a few bottles of a beer he likes. After I endured the ninth circle of hell that was Tesco yesterday.

Funnily enough, he's happy to put up with the alcohol we currently have in the house after I suggested he "pop" somewhere himself.

Tenshidarkangel · 22/12/2017 13:15

I think you need to inform us of exactly what Anglo Saxon English was used...
Y'know for posterity.

starfishmummy · 22/12/2017 13:16

I would be serving up a few an Kent frozen peas each and the emergency tin of sweetcorn and making sure that his family know why...

starfishmummy · 22/12/2017 13:17

Oops that's ancient peas nothing to.do with Kent

DeleteOrDecay · 22/12/2017 13:18

Oh hell no.

He has some gall doesn't he? Glad you told him where to go (to Waitrose of course!).

Usernamegone · 22/12/2017 13:18

‘‘Tis the season for cheeky fuckers

I did a 4 hour round trip to give CF and his family xmas presents whilst heavily pregnant as I would be too pregnant/uncomfortable/about to drop after Christmas. CF then wanted me to do another 4 hour round trip after Christmas to see them. Apparently, I am unreasonable to travel at 9 months pregnant!
