Bought a bacon roll on way in to work, someone collared me as I got out the car, 2 hours later I remembered the roll was still on the passenger seat......

I think this bit should go into the happy thread.
A player was sat out in a dym last night. I was the short stack and we got to the bubble. Obviously we don't say anything ourselves but hope that common sense prevails. I was delighted when the big stack said that we should all play sensibly. Less so when he then opened every single pot. The away player came back and it was game on again.
I have to admit that I took great pleasure in doubling up through the big stack and then busting him 2 minutes later..
In Response to Re: Jimis Advent calendar : Ah, now thats were sign language comes in handy. Just the one finger really, or maybe two. While im here, whats all this tipping nonsense? Do you tip the checkout lad or lass, the baker, the chemist, the bookie etc.........Noooooo. Posted by chilling
I have to say I almost always tip and if I don't there has to be pretty poor service to warrant it.
The staff are generally not paid a fortune in restaurants and tips can add significantly to their earnings. I suppose that it partly goes back to having worked restaurants/bars in my younger, much poorer, days.

I generally tip, i do hate it when there is a toilet attendant though, I always feel obliged and theres only so much aftershave you can use before you start smelling like the perfume counter at Boots.......

Xmas food shopping, got dragged along yesterday........does it really matter which dessert we have.
On the bright side we bought pigs in blankets from Iceland and according to The One Shows scientific testing, they are the best in the universe (or at least from budget supermarkets).
