He spoiled our fun.
"Spoil" originally meant to sack a city after conquest. It has taken on the meaning of ruining things, or at least making them less good than they were. If someone spoils your fun, it means that you had been enjoying yourself, but the person in question interrupted it and prevented you from going on enjoying yourself as before.

He spoilt our fun - is perfectly OK. Spoiled is also an acceptable alternative to spoilt.
