Dh’s work lunch was at 12, when would you expect him home

[Lightswontstopflashing]

If it was you?

Not expect as in, he has to be home a certain time, but 5.30 now and still not back..,almost 6 hours at a work lunch 🤷🏻‍♀️

It’s a 10 minute drive away

Ours started at 12pm last week. Most left around midnight.

Probably 8/9pm. My dh couldn’t do a late night if he’s started at lunchtime.

When we had Christmas work lunches you had to be there until your normal finishing time at work. You could not leave early and expect to be paid.

Sometime before breakfast tomorrow and possibly with a couple of colleagues in tow who live further away.

I'd expect him home when he's had enough. He can decide when that will be. I certainly wouldn't expect him home at a certain time.

I would think it was quite a boring party if we didn't go to the pub after lunch and then stay til closing. So pub chucking out time would be average.

If it's a raucous party then maybe later. Eat without him.

My husband loves a bevvy so probably any time
after midnight

When he's ready.

It’s the day before Christmas Eve - my DH would have been back by about 2am

No earlier than 8pm, probably later tbh if drinking

closing time TBH
maybe 8-9pm if driving and not drinking

So many party animals 🤣

We’re in another country, I miss the U.K. so much celebrating

For my DP…I would expect him back at 12…delighted with himself because he wouldn’t be bothered going 🤣🤣

My work Christmas lunch started at 12 (lunch) and finished at 12 (midnight) 😁

Around midnight.

When young free and single, sometimes our Christmas lunch would end some time the following morning!

If drinking then anytime. Definitely after midnight. It could be any time and I’d be gone to bed anyway so wouldn’t care.

First husband would roll in in the early hours having tried to shag somebody from work all evening. Would then wake up and pee all over his pile of clothes on the floor because he would be convinced he was in the bathroom.
Second husband home about 6-7 depending on colleagues. Would have communicated a likely time as would have asked me for a lift.
( no taxis available to our village) . Would be happily tiddly and very grateful for the lift. Would return the favour many times over.

This was actually exH.

Current DH - about 12.30pm because he has a team of nerds. With friends? 12.30am

Soon i would expect but then both my exh and my current dh would be calling for a lift or have invited me along

my husband would come home when he’s had enough!
He's not a big drinker, lol he very rarely goes to the pub but he has got a nighttime hobby, so he goes out I go to bed and I don’t know if he’s home until I get up in the morning and see he’s at home !

Whenever really. In the meantime I’d enjoy the remote to myself and the chilled Chardonnay out of the fridge 🤩🤩

Back today. Or early tomorrow.

About midnight? I wouldn't expect him back before 10pm, anyway.

I traded up as well

Praise be to second husbands!
