Sneaky McDonalds (lighthearted)

[LemonOJ]

First time posting; long time lurker.

First day off after a very stressful week at work with a shitty cold. Was looking forward to a much needed lie in but trains are buggered and DP needed to get to work so got up at 6:30 to drive him halfway across South London (he doesn’t drive) for second weekend running. On way out the door DP grumbling at me about the few tiny chores I had asked him to do (and he had done a half-arsed job of) which pissed me off given I had been so courteous about doing him this favour.

Supposed to be doing healthy January together plus not spamming money away on the unnecessary.

Have just stopped in McDonald’s drive thru on my way home and enjoyed a greasy breakfast. Won’t be telling DP. AIBU?

(Waiting for the ‘YABU for eating that disgusting garbage’ responses )

YABU for not telling us what you had

Sausage and egg McMuffin with extra hash brown

Nom. My favourite.

Next time - Grumpybollix can make his own way to his pigging job.
The bollix can go off and learn to drive too.

You had exactly what I have!!!! Treat yourself OP. There's something even better about a sneaky mcdonalds than a normal one 🤣 I currently have covid and when my isolation is up I'm going to do exactly the same as you!!!

YABU to have a maccies breakfast because they are generally quite crap. YANBU if you go back at lunchtime for a large meal with a side of Camembert bites

Excellent work enjoy your breakfast!

YANBU for the cheeky MaccyDs but your husband sounds like an arse, don’t let him get away with being lazy.

@girlmom21 McDonald's do Camembert fries now?! Oh my! Why isn't there 1 near me

That is the perfect way to enjoy a McDonald's breakfast, just reading your post, I can taste the cheese stuck to the sausage, and the joy of the secret. Yanbu and thank you for sharing!

Good for you - never tell him of course. If he's the one pushing healthy eating, do it next time too.

I dropped DH at the station half an hour ago, I really wanted to pick up a McDonalds dirty breakfast on the way home except it would have been a ten mile round trip so I came straight home.
I am now looking at my pain au chocolat and wishing I had gone.

Snap, just had a sausage and egg mcmuffin too! YANBU.

I do this at least once a week YANBU, top points for the extra hash brown too!

That’s what I want for breakfast
A double though and always have an extra hash brown. As a treat they are delicious couldn’t eat one often.
Am skint though…
Payday is Wednesday
Hope you enjoyed it op

Yanbu for having the breakfast. Tell him to pull his socks up, though. You’re in London? Are there really no buses? And he’s doing the typical lazy man thing of doing the bare minimum around the house but expects you to drag yourself out of bed to help him?

You lucky cow, I'm envious, I want one now

My absolute favorite! I'm eating healthily at the moment, don't drink or smoke but oh my ....I love a Maccys breakfast.. My parents are both poorly so any free time I'm off on a 500 mile round trip to visit..An audio book and stop in Maccys (both ways!) makes the whole situation a little easier..
Enjoy OP.

HIBU expecting you to chauffeur him.
YANBU in your sneaky order.
Hope you paid with cash so he can’t discover your indulgence!

I love a mcd breakfast and that is my exact order too. YANBU

They taste so much better when they are secret too.

Clearly Mumsnet posters have good taste. Separate bank accounts so no chance of getting caught! It was delicious, and all the more so as DP none the wiser.

Must try these Camembert fries…

Whaaaaat? Where can I get camembert fries?
Asking for a friend obvs

And if you eat it really quickly it doesn't count anyway.

Hold on you can order extra hash browns why didn't I know this 😱

McDonald's brunch is a fab treat. Mines usually a double sausage and egg muffin but I take the egg off. Hash brown although clearly I'm going to order an extra in future! Latte and an orange juice so I can kid myself it's vaguely healthy 😂

Are you Scottish? I read this with a Scottish accent in my head!
