What’s the appropriate punishment for drinking someone else’s wine?

[Maztek]

Had a long ass day and I’ve only just managed to get my nightmare toddler to sleep. Husband has gone out with friends, come down to see he drank the rest of my bottle of wine before going out.
i was really looking forward to sitting out in the garden with a glass of wine and a cigarette 🥲

Hung, drawn and quartered?

NOW you are going to get it !! Half a bottle of wine IN THE HOUSE ??? Are you an alcoholic ??

MN has a small glass of wine (just the one) at Christmas if you are very very reckless... as that emergency is just around the corner ..

I’m sure that half bottle was opened Christmas Eve and OP has managed to make it last until now (and on until next Christmas) by just taking a small sip every other week.

Otherwise, what would happen if the child fell down stairs whilst OP was drinking a whole glass of wine!!

Get him to bring you home a bottle on his way.

OMG* !! You are dicing with death there .. I am sooooo glad this is an anonymous forum because (gulp- confession coming up) I have at least one glass A NIGHT !! (Admittedly kids are 21, 25 and 29 .) . and with the exception of the youngest who is home from Uni)
.. they don't actually LIVE with me .. but still .. there COULD be an emergency...

I am currently eyeing some very unattractive thistles with which to beat myself for such serious child neglect..

Oh dear!

”head tilt” are you ok hun?

i’d be ringing him up and insisting he goes to the shop, immediately, and buys you more wine, then brings it straight to you, otherwise I’d tell him we were getting a divorce.

PS, you wouldn’t want to be sitting out with a ciggy here, it’s pissing down.

He did indeed come home with another bottle of wine so he may live a little longer.

I do really like the creativeness of husband murdering on here though.

I'm glad he brought you another bottle but next night he's off he better have a bottle and 20 cigs waiting for you 😂
Happy to be an alibi if he doesn't 🥰

Oh yeah and my punishment would be slicing off his penis with a rusty razor blade, frying it off (in chilli and garlic cos im not a sadist) and then feeding it to him.

Well, he’s earned himself a reprieve.

A second offence will be hanging, drawing and quartering, then an extra hanging just to make sure he’s got the message.

Or carefully placed Lego around his side of the bed after he’s got in and fallen asleep, make sure his mobile is on the other side of the room then ring it.

If there is more wine open another bottle.😊If there isn't make sure there are spares in future.

@Brightbear & @MIBnightmare

Goodness me - I have made a terrible faux pas admitting I sometimes have a whole bottle of wine in the house

Of course I only drink 1 thimbleful per month
If it's a nice white, alongside a Mumsnet chicken, which also lasts a month in various guises

I shall have to reduce consumption to half a thimbleful immediately <doffs cap>

This ! I would be absolutely bloody livid 😫

This seems suitable

Do you make a hearty soup with the chicken carcass? If you do, then you may be forgiven!

Of course @Brightbear
With the leaves from the outside of the cauliflower AND cutter up broccoli stems

You sound like an alcoholic.

I’d probably set him on fire.

Divorce

Stop being a people pleaser ….. it’s death

😂
