Name changer. Please don?t shout troll and please don?t use this face because I?m devastated and shocked & sickend and I have no idea what to do.

My husband is in our shed. I have just watched him do something to himself with sandpaper. I set up a camera down in the shed today which is from a hedgehog home surveillance thing I?ve been given as a present. I took the camera out of the hedgehog box and have left it on the work bench. I was testing it out (wireless) with our telly eralier. I was just flicking through the channels when the hedgehog camera channel came up and that?s how I saw DH and what he was doing.

We?ve been through a bad time just recently and I know we have a long way to go before things are ok again but I don?t think I can forgive this. I want to be sick. How will I talk to him? What will I say when he comes in? I cant sleep with him tonight. Please help.

coppernails- dont google it, you saw it you know what he did. Just have a big slug of wine and tell him what you saw, tell him it made you feel a bit weird and see what he says.
You are not a failure at all! He could be just experimenting. There is nowt wrong with having an experiment with what might feel good.

Teak oil?

Is he a pirate with a peg-cock by any chance?

GumsNRoses · 09/06/2009 22:13

Sure some MNetter can find pics of the sandpaper condom

JonAndHate · 09/06/2009 22:14

Have you recently stopped breastfeeding? Maybe he got used to the dry feeling? Oh no, I see he asked for some lube oil.

Trikken · 09/06/2009 22:16

Surely it would hurt? has he done anything remotely similar before?

kalo12 · 09/06/2009 22:17

we don't have a shed, but my dh often wanks with a green scratcher over the kitchen sink.

can someone do me a link to a house mouse cam please

NoBiggy · 09/06/2009 22:18

You mean a pan scrub, kalo?

Does he have his own?

kalo12 · 09/06/2009 22:19

i asked him what he was doing and he just asked me to pass the fairy liquid.

he doesn't make lampshades but he is also good with his hands, he's a chef.

What do other mumsnets dhs do for a job?

SolidGoldBrass · 09/06/2009 22:19

Maybe he's considering going into business with this lot?

snigger · 09/06/2009 22:19

Feck, and I've spent all this time not googling dragonbutter.

Sandpaperhedgehogwanking does not a posting name make.

MerlinsBeard · 09/06/2009 22:20

Are you sure he doesn't just have some kind of infection and was itching himself?

NoBiggy · 09/06/2009 22:20

Giving it a deep clean then.

And you thought he was having a wank!

That's your dirty mind.

mumonthenet · 09/06/2009 22:21

I haven't laughed as much in years.......

as I do on mn these days.

Sorry, im rambling because im shaken up i think. he uses teakoil for his pictureframing stuff - its got nothing to do with what im asking for help with.

globes i meant bottom cheeks. bottom globes is a hangover from my mother.

i feel a bit more able to accept this becauase its been heard of before. i thought it was just him. i never heard of this before. ill try and talk to him again. hell be in for his cocoa in a few minutes. we've been married for 16 years. hes a lovely man but we argued at christmas about some of his other hobbies and its been very rough for us since. and now ths. its like hes not the man i once married.

Has she taken the teak oil then?

Because it's likely to be linseed oil, which I think may be toxic.

Good for cricket bats though.

GumsNRoses · 09/06/2009 22:23

Hmm see SGB has answered the question, the poor man is just trying to make more money, shame on you for doubting him

MerlinsBeard · 09/06/2009 22:23

So he was itching his bottom with sandpaper then?

WHen he comes in ask him if he needs to see a Dr for some cream - teak oil will not help

ClaireDeLoon · 09/06/2009 22:23

AT least things will be smoother from now on

ToughDaddy · 09/06/2009 22:23

Rubbing it down with sandpaper makes a change from lying on CopperNails! I don't blame him for trying something new.

Molesworth · 09/06/2009 22:24

What are his other hobbies?

ToughDaddy · 09/06/2009 22:24

...if the relationship is getting a bit rusty

NoBiggy · 09/06/2009 22:24

Maybe he should drag his arse along the carpet like a dog.

Perhaps he'd prefer to use the doormat.

Louby3000 · 09/06/2009 22:25

hey good luck lady, you can do it, and you know he is not weird for doing this. maybe it is something he can continue to do on his own...or maybe this will allow for a new direction in your sex life??

LastOrders · 09/06/2009 22:25

Hoping his other hobbies don't require the use of an angle grinder....

snigger · 09/06/2009 22:26

He'll be in for his cocoa!

Horlicks for the hedgehog-worrier!

Stop enabling him.
