Leave it as a conversation piece! In my parents house, we had a plastic cork from a very cheap bottle of 70's fizz stuck in the polystyrene tiles in the living room for a good 15+ years.

People actually commented when it was removed!

I'm sure Mrs Rusty will understand... Oh see that man of mine... 🤣🤣🤣

Edit: get a tattoo?

Painting over it might be an adventure, tends to show through a lot of paint. Try a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and baking soda, about pancake batter consistency. Apply to stain. Leave. Return after watching approx half a series on netflix. Wipe off paste. Might take off stain. Do it when the distaff side is out, if it works you can claim to have painted it.
If the paint is latex based, alcohol will soften it, so alcohol really 'soaks' in. If the paste doesn't work, an alcohol soaked rag might take off the remains of the stain, because it takes off the surface of the paint.
If that fails get a really good stain blocking primer.

Are you dead yet? If so can I have your bikes?

If she changes her mind and decides to kill you can you please move the big tent so I have easy access to your bikes?

I'm not sure that's red wine staining on the ceiling this morning...

Op, are you there? Knock twice if you're safe...

Reminds me of a story from my youth when a friends and his lady companion managed to get bodily fluids on the roof liner of his dad’s car. A bit of gentle rubbing removed the offending matter, but it also removed about 10 year’s worth of dirt leaving a very obvious clean patch. So they set about cleaning the whole roof which then didn’t match the rest of the upholstery, so they cleaned that as well…

By the time the sun came up the car looked like it had just left the showroom.

The biscuit thread last night was a source of many amazing revelations....

For future reference - live on your own. There's tomato seeds on my kitchen door that have been there for 4 years. Nobody cares. 😀

She’s back about in about an hour.

Her: Is that red wine on the ceiling?

You: Yes, yes it is, Impressive, no?

And walk away...explain nothing

I squoze an abscess on someone's back the other day (at work, mind...) and it jettisoned the contents all voer my surgery wall!
Grim!
Narrowly missed a beautiful canvas print of my son running on the south downs!!!

Oh the laughs we have..

When my son was younger he had a lump appear on his jaw. I give it a gentle prod and the jet of goo hit me in the teeth.

Throw some white wine up there.

Underappreciated comment.

If that doesn't work, try squirting a bottle of lemonade at it.

Pressure cooker safety valve activation of 1992 was fairly spectacular: Approx 2 litres of beef stew, exiting under 100 psi via a 8mm hole. Marmite stock dripping off the kitchen ceiling for what seemed like hours.
Falling asleep cooking pea and ham soup after a night out with ‘the boys’, 1988,whilst the then Mrs CFSB was away on a course, until the following lunchtime took some explaining. Two( sadly) overcome by smoke budgies and a scorched cooker hood…..

I challenge your red wine stain with the mighty gearbox oil episode of 2011.
Still never forgotten..ummm the sticky stinky marks that never went away.

My daughter dropped a tube of glitter about 5 years ago. Still finding it.

She’s more annoyed about the lack of adequate ventilation and mask compliance at the dancing venue.

People still wear masks?

Granted, I often see the odd lunatic outside, or driving their car. On their own...
