Last night my dh went for a night out I booked for him as an anniversary present. I booked from lastminute.com, it was supposed to be a swish evening out watching boxing and having a nice dinner served at the ringside, all drinks and food included and a VIP party after the boxing.
I imagined the VIP party might involve meeting the boxers, (which dh would have loved).
He came home early (left Canary Wharf at 11.00) explaining that the VIP party was going to be a lapdancing party and he didn't want to go. Apparently there were very obvious prostitutes dripping from the walls all evening, lots and lots of them with bits of their bodies hanging out. They were coming over trying to chat up the guests.
DH got talking to a couple of other guys, one of them had been bought the ticket by his daughter as a birthday present, and was as surprised as dh. He was planning to ring his daughter and ask her if she was trying to break up his marriage (tongue in cheek to the daughter, but seriously rattled about the women there). The other one had his wife with him, she had also arranged the evening as a treat for him, but she was not too happy as you can imagine.
I have nothing against prostitutes, but I am annoyed that a treat I booked my dh as an anniversary present turned out to be sending him into an evening boozing with a room full of prostitutes. I asked him whether he thought the dinner and the boxing made the evening worth the price of the ticket and he said, not really. I didn't realise part of my ticket fee was going to pay for prostitutes and lapdancers, or that I was treating my dh to an evening like this.
Do you think I should complain?
