Am I allowed to kill DH

[angeltulips]

for putting my favourite white silk shirt through the wash?

It's all rough and pebbly.

Yes, I'll cover for you

GUTTED. I'd kill mine. Where'd you get it from?

Yes. There isn't a court in the land that would convict you.

Oh, dear. Husbands: can't live with 'em; can't shoot 'em during hunting season.

My husband put a cashmere jumper I got from Calvin Klein in Rome on a 90 degree wash. This was in 1999 and he is now my ex. It still boils my piss when I think about it!

Nothing needs to be washed at 90 degrees!

Work away angeltulips. We've got your back.

I did this to DH's favourite posh wool jumper and shrunk it . He was

We have a separate wash bag for special stuff, but I got wrong setting on machine.

Get him to do the digging for the new patio first!

I shrank DH's Italian cashmere jumper this week . Luckily he has no interest in clothes (it was a present) and he thought it was hilarious as it would now fit 15 month old DD!

I dyed dh's cricket kit pink by accident once he was a bit furious

But yes, kill him.

I shrunk two of DH's nice merino jumpers. On two separate occasions.

The first one had got caught up in a load of other washing so I just didn't see it and the second one I had some sort of brain fart and put it on at 40 degrees. I did buy him new ones though.

Luckily, he didn't kill me.

It was beautiful

I can now use it to exfoliate my body it's so rough

Google tells me that soaking it in warm vinegar solution might work. I bet it doesn't. Sob.

Make him buy you a new nicer one.

DH used my expensive, impossible to buy in this country, Tweezerman tweezers to degunk the vacuum cleaner wheels. It made the ends all jagged and rough.

I told him I was going to use them to puck out his pubes.

Make it painful.

I once heard 'oh no, oh dear, oh no' type mutterings coming from the kitchen. When I was brave enough to look in DP had washed a bright red t-shirt with his whites and had a lovely collection of pink sports wear and pants.

His reasoning was that once it had been washed once it can all go in together.

This is exactly why I would rather do all the laundry myself than let DH anywhere near the washing machine!

Dont kill him yet. He owes you a new one [ one of your choice] Go shopping on his card. Its payback!

Yes!

My DH nearly copped it yesterday when he put my new favourite, brand new, only worn once, dry clean only shirt through a 60 degree wash.

Now, admittedly it was never going to see the inside of a dry cleaners, but I was going to attempt to gently hand wash it.

It survived though so he lived to see another day

I have a separate my-stuff-only wash basket now for this very reason. All my wools and delicates go in there. He knows not to touch it, ever.
