DH ‘I’m not coming home.’

DH is out tonight. Someone at work is celebrating their 40th birthday.
They went to a golf club this afternoon and had lunch and drinks after. They’ve now gone into London. DH has just messaged me this:
‘Don’t wait up for me. I’m not coming home.’
I asked why.
His reply ‘crashing at work mates flat because it’s closer’ (he then said where it was. It’s 3 stops on the train before our stop. Hmm
AIBU to be annoyed at this??

@SpindleWhorl

I really don't think Sally's eating his kebab.
Oh my god GrinGrin😩😩

No trains running, or they're not able to board one, so they're going to all get a room or rooms in a budget hotel chain. Possibly?

BrilloPaddy · 28/08/2021 23:03

Sounds like he's too drunk for the train and has to find a place to stay as in a hotel???????

EKGEMS · 28/08/2021 23:05

I can't decide what post is better the singing Chris de Burgh or the kebab brought to bed in case wife was peckish? @Livvielo I think he's going to be hating himself tomorrow with a headache and you and the children will be relishing your McDonalds!

SpindleWhorl · 28/08/2021 23:05

I was going to say, at least he's with other people ... I hope he is tbh.

DoYouLikeOwls · 28/08/2021 23:09

I would question if he has drank over the recommended drink unit allowance, if he has LTB.

Livvielo · 28/08/2021 23:10

I really really hope not. We’ve just spent almost £400 on school uniform for DD’s new senior school… if he then blows a stupid amount of money on a hotel room, I will definitely not be reasonable. Hmm

Hope you sleep ok x

BigFatLiar · 28/08/2021 23:14

‘crashing at work mates flat because it’s closer’

Probably intended to get a curry, a few beers and continue drinking.

Hope he actually gets to sleep somewhere safe, you can tell him all about this tomorrow, he may not remember.

Has anyone got Sally and Rick’ number? (Asking for a friend)

Ihavehadenoughalready · 28/08/2021 23:16

Rick now allow in here no trains allow so we going try a place night love you I do.

"Right now we're not allowed in here; that is, we're not allowed on any trains, or the trains are not running; in any event we're all a bit confused. Therefore, we are going to try to stay at an alternate place rather than getting to my friend's house. Good night to you too. I do love you even though English and texting are a bit of a struggle right now."

Peabodi · 28/08/2021 23:17

Oh god OP I want you to be my best friend 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Wineandroses3 · 28/08/2021 23:20

So does it look like he’s saying that he’s not going to stay at his friends house anymore cos there’s no trains so he is booking into a hotel room instead?

riceuten · 28/08/2021 23:21

I'd be suspicious, and would (justifiably) surreptitiously be checking his card, his phone and his email.

Coffeepot72 · 28/08/2021 23:21

OP, I wouldn’t be too impressed but it doesn’t sound suspicious

Wineandroses3 · 28/08/2021 23:22

It definitely sounds suspicious

minitwister · 28/08/2021 23:23

Rick isn't allowed in here as he's got trainers on, going to find somewhere that will allow him in.

saraclara · 28/08/2021 23:25

Heh. You probably live along my train line, OP. The trains are absolutely fucked today. My friend left here for London at 7:30pm and what normally would take 50 minutes took two hours. And two out of three trains were cancelled.

ToooSensitive · 28/08/2021 23:25

This wouldn’t bother me at all OP.

Also, Rick and Sally sound fun.

joystir59 · 28/08/2021 23:26

Nite nite op, don't worry, he will be fine, he is with friends, he is just drunk and letting his hair down, he will be back home tomorrow with a bad head. Hope you get a good night's sleep

Lifeisaminestrone · 28/08/2021 23:26

He’s excited coming out of lockdown.

I’d make him do a covid test tomorrow.

Don’t think anything sinister - just a good time with chums.

Enjoy the morning with your kids!

Fifilafrog · 28/08/2021 23:26

He's definitely best staying out (and making this a one off). He owes you one! On the plus side, sounds dd like lunch with the in-laws is off 😃😂

joystir59 · 28/08/2021 23:27

I think this is what he meant

whynotwhatknot · 28/08/2021 23:27

My dh always falls asleep on the way home from a night out-its pot luck what bloody station he ends up

prob better off staying with someone

Catfox1 · 28/08/2021 23:28

I wouldn’t be too chuffed but on the plus side id be willing to bet lunch tomorrow is off. Unless he’s superhuman 😄 hope you have a nice sleep in a bed all to yourself!
