A MUM-OF-THREE has revealed how she got revenge on her husband who stays out late during the week.
The wife was getting irritated by the fact that her man stayed drunk in town late after work and never took the key with him.

This meant she would have to leave the back door unlocked while her three young children slept inside.
And since she was tired of doing this, she decided to take a stand.
The mother turned to Mumsnet for reassurance that she was not being irrational in her actions.
“My husband often goes out after work for drinks with his colleagues, boss, and senior leaders at his work,” she shared.
“He has a very well-paid and respected job, and he says that the culture of the city of London greatly promotes this aspect of his work.
“I have no problem with that – and I know that a lot of networking in your field comes from staying out for drinks and dinner after work.
“However, my husband never, ever takes the key to our house with him!”
The businessman expects his wife to leave the back door unlocked – something she hates doing because of their three young children.
“Even if it was just me in the house, I wouldn’t want to leave it unlocked,” she explained.
“My apartment was robbed a few years before I met my husband and that made me even more vigilant about security.
“I don’t understand why he can’t just take a key with him.
“The last few times he came home, he woke me (and probably the neighbors) up by ringing the doorbell, calling my phone and knocking on the door.
“This is all after midnight.”
To position herself, the woman refused to leave the door unlocked for her husband’s last party.

“He just texted me that he was coming home and to leave the back door unlocked,” she wrote at the time.
“I told him that if he doesn’t have a key, he will need to sleep on the sofa in the annex as I won’t leave the door unlocked.
“I’m not even prepared to be woken up in the middle of the night to let you in.
“He is now very angry with me, saying I am being irrational.”
The husband slept in the annex during the night – but his wife assured that “he didn’t suffer much”, as it has a sofa, heater and TV.
“Interestingly enough, he’s going to cut another key while we’re in town today to make sure he can keep it in his work bag and always have a spare in the future,” she later shared.
