The whole family ate for free at lunchtime.

 

The missus did her nut when the vegetarian lasagne she'd ordered turned out to have beef in it; they replaced the meal and refunded the bill.

You jest, but I once knew a guy who did pretty much that. He used to pocket a few maggots (bought from a fishing tackle shop), go out for a meal, then right at the end 'discover' a maggot in his food. He ate for free for months until he tried it on in an Indian restaurant he'd done it in once before. The manager had the waiters take him outside for a kicking.

Well, it was a very long time ago, so I can't be certain, but I think he lost an eye.

Was browsing local Facebook group yesterday, when up popped some rattan garden sofa seats.  Quickly said yes please, and Lo am proud owner of semi circle of mint condition garden furniture for £100. Looked it up online, turns out I have £900 worth of gear!  Nice.

Today marks 3 weeks I've been camped out at the Royal with the wife who has meningitis. Imminent danger passed but still an abscess on the brain to try and fix   I'm drained 

 

That's awful.

 

I hope it works out ok.
