To be devastated that he's missed the Christmas shopping deadline

[tilypu]

I only asked for one thing. The deadline passed last weekend and it turns out he hasn't even bloody ordered it.

Christmas is ruined! He's suggesting he fashion one out of tin foil instead. He thinks he'll be able to fasten it together with the Tiffany paperclip he got me a few years ago. To be fair, he created a surprisingly good mock up of a Jackson Pollock painting, although I think Crispín and Tabitha suspect it's not genuine.

I'm utterly discombobulated.

😂

LTB. So many red flags here. He has done this on purpose to ruin your day. I bet he is also sleeping with the nanny.

Nothing says Christmas like a sterling silver cabbage…Christmas is over.

Heartless!

😂🎄

Didn't the purchaser eat the turner prize banana?

By kind on the man - perhaps the cabbage could be the centre piece to go with the Easter roast lamb.

Wish I'd read the opening post in full as I went straight to the link and then spent awhile looking on the internet for something similar and was very sad that I couldn't.

I contemplated ordering some silver leaf and decorating a real cabbage and posting it to the op in commiseration.

I wonder if this attempt at humour will get into one of the tabloids.

How incredibly selfish.
Get your ducks in row now !

Ducks!? Surely you mean her Fusaichi Pegasus. OP is not common.

Christmas isn’t Christmas in our house without a silver cabbage.

I am pretty sure if you order it they will find a way to get it to you in time.
I have a feeling they’re not as rushed as the average retailer as someone had time to write ‘ precious cups, bowls and saucers of rare beauty that reflect and testify the extraordinary abundance and inventiveness of the universe in which we live’.

Is it too late for click and collect to your local Premier Express?

Don't worry, you can still save Christmas. Send him out to buy a pack of Tunnocks tea cakes and you can craft this beauty

Thoughts and prayers OP.

Why didn't he ask the butler to o der it?

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I still remember last year when all I asked for was a simple Seletti sofa for my bathroom. But no. It got stuck in customs. Allegedly. As they say, this year I’m saving my tears.

@tilypu

Oh darling!

Would this do instead?

If that fails, maybe buy a cabbage and silver metallic paint? I'll make it for you for half the price and hand delivery it to your door. I'll do a closed cabbage and an open cabbage version and you can select which one your prefer.

Flaps.
utterly childish snigger

Cabbage from the market, can of silver paint from Screwfix.

Jobs’ a good ‘un.

Cancel Christmas and leave the bastard.

Have a lovely hot choc.

You have missed online delivery.
There are three stores in London that have it.
So he could collect it for you.

Came on this thread ready to be annoyed with you - what an absolute cabbage forgetting bastard he is.

Time to get your Swarovski ducks in a row and LTB, so sorry OP!
