Good God, you're not still doing that?
by MedbhYes I am, so get used to it. In fact I didn't even do this one. Medbh who blogs at Dante and the Lobster did it. I've got more too from the Anonymous Boxer and someone called Charlie. They made me chuckle. And very few things have made me chuckle this week.
And so the table arrived. I took the advice of the poll and decided it would be better to stay away from them. I had intended to call in to the room and smarm my way around the table with lots of "Oh yes madam, water? Fantastic choice!" and other such merriment. It's a wonderful technique called "Killing with Kindness". But events in the restaurant took over my plans and soon I was knee deep in lovely people and had no time to seek revenge. Probably the best result all round. I left before they did but by all accounts they were having a great time. Bastards. I begrudge them it. I really really do.
How bitter is that?
Don't forget your cameras when you are out stuffing your faces this weekend. Sorry I mean dining and having a lovely time with family and friends. I begrudge you that too....
Don't worry about me, I'll be risking my life for a cancer charity thing I was press-ganged into doing at work on Sunday. Sorry I mean happily volunteered for. Well it's time I gave back to society. A society I have taken so so much from..........

Thanks so much Manuel, but the picture wrote itself practically.
It's best you didn't have to waste your time grin-fucking them. I doubt she's a good tipper at any rate based on her poor manners on the phone.
Good man for agreeing to do work for the cancer charity. Karma and all that.
I keep all of my charity work secret, the smiles of thanks are enough.
"before setting out for revenge, first dig two graves"
- old ballymoney proverb

Medbh: "grin-fucking them" genius...
Old Knudsen: I prefer the Jimmy Saville approach to charity work....
Toast: "before setting out for revenge, make sure manager is somewhere else" old waiter proverb...
Sheepo: 10K RUN? Are you having a laugh? Bless you for even thinking I could do that...

Anonymous Boxer: if only you knew....

I spend too much time eating out. Perhaps I can find a waiter willing to be shot.
