Initially we were going to scotland for a couple of days between xmas and new year then that was too far so we looked at closer for an overnight which bizarrely morphed into a day at Warwick Castle - today! Couldnt book tickets online so went along admittedly just after midday, the car park was full so I thought we could park on the other side and walk through a different entrance. Dh bearing in mind is whining and yelling at me because the car park is full which is my fault entirely. Unsure of how many hours to park the car for (pay and display) he asked me - ive never actually been into the castle so have no idea how long which i told him. He didnt want to make the decision so huffed off and left me the keys to teh car! He decided to take the train home. So armed with no money to pay for entrance tickets we;ve had to drive home. Dont have a clue where he is now though,

Drive home and change the locks. Miserable bastard!

jampots · 29/12/2006 14:18

as he was walking away from the car in the car park there was a large group of people not far away so I yelled out to dh (fish wife stylee) "David, I dont know how to get home.... David David..." obviously he didnt turn round but carried on walking.

Over reaction is an understatement........................

winestein · 29/12/2006 14:20

Can't you go out to a friends or something with the kids? Bottle of wine and have some tea and a laugh?
He shows a disgusting lack of concern and respect for you.

Fimbo · 29/12/2006 14:22

What are you going to do when he finally surfaces? I would be livid if my dh had done that to me.

jampots · 29/12/2006 14:32

well ive promised the children I'll take themfirst thing tomorrow - a single trip ticket for today would have been about £39 but I may just buy the annual pass for £105 tomorrow

Blimey jampots ... what a miserable fecker!!

would lynch dh if he even attempted something remotely similar!!!

I agree with winestein (great name that!) go out with the kids in tow to a friends and enjoy yourself (if you can...)

Hope you get it sorted!

jampots · 29/12/2006 14:36

his first words to dd hav been "why didnt you go to the castle..... fucking useless..... all because you and your fucking mother couldnt get ready....now Ive got to clean up after you lot...."

How horrible for you and the children and how childish and spiteful and unreasonable of him.

Carmenere · 29/12/2006 14:37

Sounds like a total wanker, what a horrible way to speak to your dd.

LIZS · 29/12/2006 14:38

silly ar$e . Does he behave like a 2yr old often ?

WideWebWitch · 29/12/2006 14:39

Jampots, this is really horrible, does he do it often? It's really nasty to speak to the children like that. What does he say if you berate him for it? Will he apologise and grovel for forgiveness later?

lulumama · 29/12/2006 14:40

he speaks like that to DD and treats you like an inconvenience!

i am appalled, he is a husband and a father,,,but is prepared to dump his family with no money because he is pissed off

has he done this sort of thing before?

guess now is not the right time to ask him why he behaved so badly... but I would have to get to bottom of it ... is this is one off or is he regularly so short tempered... maybe you both need to sit down and talk this through... but only after you have thought through suitable revenge!

SaggarClaus · 29/12/2006 14:44

Crikey jampots . He needs to take a long hard look at himself. How childish of him.

SnafuOutOfHiding · 29/12/2006 14:45

Jampots, forgive me if I've got it wrong but it's not the first time he's been so vile, is it?

Sorry your day was ruined. Agree he is certainly a joy leech (good phrase).

foxtrot · 29/12/2006 14:50

oh dear, he sounds a bit like my DH - gets up a good head of steam if he spends too much time being a 'family man' - which is why i told him not to take any extra days off this week . Two long weekends on the trot is quite enough for all of us.

jampots · 29/12/2006 14:51

i agree joy leech is an excellent phrase. He's now telling me I completely ruined the day and Im a "useless sack of shit" because I didnt fill the car with fuel on the way home.

He's always like this but especially at celebration times, ie. birthdays, xmas, easter, holidays etc. The real reason i suspect he is pissed right now is because he wanted to go to his birth mums for dinner one of these days and I wasnt prepared to commit to it without him first committing to something for us.
