My DH bought himself 2 cases of beer...

My DH has been out all day on his man's secret MN hobby (you will never guess). He walked in after being out for 6 hours, obviously having come home via the shops, carrying 2 cases of beer for himself.
I said excitedly 'oooh! What did you get for me?'

Silence.

He's just sheepishly told me that he will make dinner this evening.
😆

"Thanks for the beer, DH. Had they run out of your sherry?" Wink
🍻🍻

@golddustwomen bud is horrible, now a few bottles of craft ale, perhaps Otter or better still stop off at the pub and get a couple of litres to go (they sell cask ale in to go containers)

I'm not usually a beer drinker tbh but am having a brave stab at it this evening.

Cheers!!!

If I were you I would be developing a raging beer thirst this evening 😁

Pink champagne sounds good for tomorrow! Enjoy your day out.

I love 'Ducks Folly' and other craft beers, can't stand wanky lagers

I don’t drink beer so wouldn’t be impressed if there wasn’t any wine in the house

zombie0037 · 29/05/2023 18:15

Do you buy him something everytime you go shopping for stuff for yourself??

Wheresthebeach · 29/05/2023 18:18

Now you’ve made me want a beer…but it’s my alcohol free night (sobs)

moggerhanger · 29/05/2023 18:20

Now I really want a beer.

A nice cold Leffe blonde, perhaps, or a geuze if I'm feeling posh.

Sussexcricket · 29/05/2023 18:21

What beer is it?

Just cracking open one of the beers.

I like your style!

Northernparent68 · 29/05/2023 18:23

do you get your husband something every time you buy yourself something?

Hamfish · 29/05/2023 18:25

your husband bought beer and you are now drinking one. Cool story bro

spir1t · 29/05/2023 18:26

What is the point if this thread???

MrsJBaptiste · 29/05/2023 18:27

FFS... and back to the original lighthearted OP...

Enjoy! I'm sat here with an ice cold wine really hoping you like beer 🍺 I'm not keen but would be forcing it down anyway!

I hate my neighbours who moved in years after me . We are both retired and keep ourselves to ourselves, very quiet and love animals and cats especially but have none now . I have a wild garden for wildlife but its private and not annoying anyone . Its a nice village but these people want everything straightened up . They come from London and dont understand the countryside . Now they are saying they saw a rat in our driveway and creating hell about it .We ourselves are next to a large churchyard and a field . There have always been rats on and off . We stopped feeding the birds because of the fuss . Now they have reported us to the Council and made us promise to get private pest control . They are very threatening nasty people . My partner did have a trailer in the driveway with some rubbish ready to go to the tip . He moved it on to our patio a long way from the neighbours and there is still a rat but the pest control man is coming tomorrow.

Why be such a mardy arse? Honestly MN is filled with joyless fucks nowadays.

But what type of beer do you both drink?

rosmarina sorry to hear about your problems but you've posted on the wrong thread.

Bramblesflock · 29/05/2023 18:35

I bet cycling. I don't even like beer and now I fancy one!

WhiteFire · 29/05/2023 18:35

You should have sent him back to the shop.
