I know it’s not an AIBU but it’s urgent, I’m absolutely gutted.
I have just returned from holiday with my DM and DD and whilst we were there I fell in love with a wooden duck with pink boots painted on and a little scarf around it’s neck. My DM brought the duck as a little surprise for me and I adore it. However Sad my daughters dad has just come to visit my DD and he threw this duck at me and it’s smashed to bits and it’s totally unfixable. Can anybody help me find another one before my DM notices? I’ll post a picture of the said duck albeit smashed to bits.

BTW, my DD never saw or heard anything. His temper is the reason we are not together.

@OneMamaAndHerGirl
Have a look at Duckbarn Interiors’ website. It’s just popped up on my Instagram with something very similar.

I have a beautiful wooden duck from Mrs H Interiors

CharlieAteThePies · 20/06/2021 22:20

OP - he sounds horrific. I’d always want to know if my DC were upset or distressed. Your mum 100% won’t mind about the duck when she hears what that shit bag did!! Wishing him a chronic case of norovirus. Hope you find a replacement duck 💐

@glitterelf

She's back weds
This looks like it - this seller could get themselves lots of publicity if they were to send you one!!!!
Arbadacarba · 22/06/2021 19:05

Has the OP confirmed we have a duck match yet?

DogsSausages · 22/06/2021 19:06

I hope OP is ok and finds a replacement or her dad managed to fix it. I dont think OP would want any publicity though.

glitterelf · 22/06/2021 21:45

It's market day tomorrow so if anyone can reach the Op to alert her and give me a shout as tomorrow will be my only opportunity to pick one up and the signal here is really crap Smile

LeonoraFlorence · 22/06/2021 21:52

This is lovely. Hope you manage to get your duck.

CatRamsey · 22/06/2021 22:40

Oh I hope OP comes back!! @OneMamaAndHerGirl

I got mine from the last who owns this business. She can decorate in whatever colour/design you want.

Try to get contact details of the stall holder so at least OP can ring them to place an order.

Hope OP is ok

@OneMamaAndHerGirl
hoping have you seen
@glitterelf's post!

please come back and let us know all is well. . . .

diddl · 23/06/2021 13:59

Hope this gets sorted today!

VestaTilley · 23/06/2021 14:01

I’m sorry about your duck, I hope you find another.

But please, please don’t let your DD have unsupervised contact with an abusive father. And he shouldn’t be smashing your things - you should report that to the police. It’s criminal damage.

Please go to a family solicitor so he doesn’t get overnight stays with her.

glitterelf · 23/06/2021 15:19

@OneMamaAndHerGirl I have contact details for the stall holder and they are happy to post so give me a shout and I'll pass the details on Smile

SecretKeeper1 · 23/06/2021 15:21

Good work @glitterelf, really kind of you Flowers
Im a bit worried about OP though, thought she’d have been back by now.

glitterelf · 23/06/2021 16:09

I'm worried too hopefully she's just busy.

OneMamaAndHerGirl · 23/06/2021 19:27

OH MY GOD I AM HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!! I’m so so sorry everyone!!!!!!!! Let me catch up and reply to you all xx

Yay for ducky! Smile

Your ex is a cunt.

SecretKeeper1 · 23/06/2021 19:45

HeronLanyon · 23/06/2021 19:46

Do we need a mn naming thread ? Or sleep routine thread ? We’re all involved now.
