Taking the piss?
« on: August 07, 2008, 19:43:34 »
I stayed in a very reasonable 4 star hotel in Warrington last night, I went to the restaurant and ordered an 8oz Fillet Steak (without potato), this is what I got for £24.00, because I don't eat the chips I asked for extra salad, that was an extra £5.00, add two cups of coffee at £2.25 a cup  :shock:

I wouldn't have paid m8..... simple as that.. unless the company was paying for it (even then I would complain and see what sweetners you might get .... free beer !)

got my bike added to my ins today... £167 ... kicked off big style on phone, threatened to cancel my policy and after 30 mins waiting on the phone..... £58.... still more than I reckoned but save a few quid (will do nicely for my up n coming holiday !)

cheers
Will

Maybe you were misled by it being a massive plate and very big cutlery
