PLEASE EXCUSE THE FAIL LINK

Due to fly home Sunday.

They're talking about closing access by air, sea and road.

It says on the photo as of midnight last night no one can leave??

I can't find a conclusive report. An official one I mean rather than tabloid reports

Wait for the message tomorrow that says he's stranded and send 'Ha ha ha ha ha. It's over. Don't come back'.

Change the locks and when he eventually comes back, call the police when he's banging on the door.

What an idiot he is. My cousin works at the airport i Barcelona she has been sent home, she says all the bars and restaurants are closed and the airport was very quiet in her area.

SistemaAddict · 14/03/2020 19:11

Oh god OP, what a twat. Serves him right but I'm glad you're doing the righty him for you and your kids. I read your other thread but don't think I posted on it. Stay strong and I agree with changing the locks. I was agog at no travel insurance!

Squigean · 14/03/2020 19:28

Like LouHotel, I feel proud of you despite not knowing you OP. Well done.

WhatHappenedThen · 14/03/2020 19:38

What a pillock he is..

SilverySurfer · 14/03/2020 20:00

What sort of a moron goes on holiday in the middle of all this and doesn't have travel insurance?

Tell him you hope he likes walking and swimming and you'll see him in three months.

OnTheEdgeOfTheNight · 14/03/2020 20:22

The dp has his own flat so OP can rightly just leave him to it.

Pinkerpellosa · 14/03/2020 20:25

Did I read earlier you took half the money from your joint account/savings?
You should actually take it all four fifths as you have the children too

Hellsbells123098 · 15/03/2020 11:44

Any news or update?

SassyBrassyBitch · 15/03/2020 12:19

His mate put a post up with pics of their trip. They walked around sightseeing and had a lockdown party.

I did an angry face reaction and I got blocked on all social media.

He's at airport now apparently waiting for flight home.

And he's said he won't isolate as he has to get shopping

StSaulOfSnacks · 15/03/2020 12:44

Speechless. This your HUSBAND??

Pumpkinpie1 · 15/03/2020 12:45

He doesn’t think much for your families welfare if he’s planning on coming home without self isolating for 14 days !
Get those locks changed today ! X

MoonBlood · 15/03/2020 12:48

My father and stepmum left Barcelona yesterday evening, the friends they were holidaying with were due to leave today but have said that they’re now stuck and unable to leave. Heaven knows what’s going to happen to now 🤷‍♀️

LittleMissnotLittleMrs · 15/03/2020 12:57

@Bulbosaur name change fail op? If so, get your post deleted.

Either way, another one proud of your determination and mother bear instincts to bin him 🦾💐

MoonBlood · 15/03/2020 12:57

Bloody hell, I hadn’t rtft before my previous response. I’m sorry your DH is such a shit! You’re handling it incredibly though, another one here reading with pride. It must be so hard to be going through this with him during the current situation though, I really am sorry. Love and strength to you and your children FlowersWine

Does he know the relationship ship is over? Him blocking you has saved you a job. Bag his stuff up and leave it outside. You've done the right thing.

PotsOfPebbles · 15/03/2020 13:09

If he's quarantined here, then it's his own fault and his problem. He blocked you before, now is the time to return the favour.

PotsOfPebbles · 15/03/2020 13:16

Bag his stuff up and leave it outside.

Change the locks if you can, or do you have a deadbolt?

Unhook your doorbell, let the kids know what you are doing and why.

OnTheEdgeOfTheNight · 15/03/2020 13:34

He has his own flat, OP can just leave him to it.

champagneandfromage50 · 15/03/2020 13:37

hope your not letting him in your home?

Gadgnkk · 15/03/2020 13:39

If he is your dp then you don’t even need a divorce, thank God

Bulbosaur · 15/03/2020 13:51

Of course I'm not.
