Picture the scene:

Lovely lunch, great(ish) company, dome serious catching up to do. Hours of free time - the pire unadulterated pleasure of being with a friend and setting the world to rights in a quality environs. And the anticipationof lovely pudding. Should be utter bliss, right?

Bloody waitress used any exuse to clatter, throw chairs under tables, rattle cutlery and generally clomp around.

It quite spoiled the meal and the minor perving of a z list sleb. Wink

WIHBU to complain? I didn't, as I'm a wuss - but it spoiles what should have been a grand couple if hours. Customer service is paramount in this day and age, innit, when f urns are struggling?

She's already said why she didn't complain. Read the OP guyzzzz

Whiskwarrior · 10/01/2014 22:19

marmalade - people don't care about the OP - too many PO and catsbums about lately!

MarmaladeBatkins · 10/01/2014 22:30

Where has OP gone anyway? Unfair to leave us hanging like this.

I reckon it was one of the cast of Crossroads.

LittleMissGerardButlersMinion · 10/01/2014 22:33

Oh dear Chaos didn't you say 'don't you know who I am'?

How very rude of them!

Whiskwarrior · 10/01/2014 22:34

I reckon it was one of The Chuckle Brothers!

Mariposa70 · 10/01/2014 22:36

Dean Gaffney?

Whiskwarrior · 10/01/2014 22:40

Surely old Gaffers is at least C-list by now?

SaucyJack · 10/01/2014 22:43

Who'd be perving at Dean Gaffney anyway? Confused

Whiskwarrior · 10/01/2014 22:45

Oh yes - she said perving, didn't she.

Erm. No, I don't think I perv over anyone z-list. Only A-listers get my attention.

Wolfiefan · 10/01/2014 22:48

I assumed celeb was perving over Chaos!

Whiskwarrior · 10/01/2014 22:50

Gosh, that's a different take on it. In that case, what if it was Dean Gaffney? Maybe that's why she hasn't come back. She's in his arms right.now.

MeepMeepVrooooom · 10/01/2014 22:56

Shamelessly place marking to find out who the z-lister was...

Shakey1500 · 10/01/2014 22:59

I dunno.

I think sometimes, like run up to a period, I swear my hearing goes off kilter and things seem/are A HELL OF A LOT LOUDER AND MORE NOTICABLE THAN OTHER TIMES.

hmc · 10/01/2014 23:23

I think Chaos is now sleeping it off. Hope you drank some water before bed Chaos!

TalkativeJim · 10/01/2014 23:29

'Do you think you could throw your chairs and cutlery around a bit more softly, and thus cause less of a hullaballoo? I am beginning to think that I might start to cry - loud, racking sobs - and I don't want your manager to think that you might have attacked me.'

You could have said something like this perhaps?

MeepMeepVrooooom · 10/01/2014 23:34

hmc I think she is with the Z-lister

BerylStreep · 10/01/2014 23:36

I think OP has passed out from the boozy lunch.

Ditavontitty · 10/01/2014 23:47

Oh dear I think the op may be mortified by this thread tomorrow.Note to self-don't start threads when pissed.

BlueStonesBells · 10/01/2014 23:50

I dunno, I've had similar: waiters loitering very loudly right by our table, poking around with tableware, and it wasn't chucking out time. I was also to soft to say anything. Sorry, unhelpful!

wobblyweebles · 11/01/2014 01:12

I'm still chuckling at someone pointing out the 'tipos' in the OP's post.

MarmaladeBatkins · 11/01/2014 08:14

OP always posts under the influence.

She should be ashamed. Sad

Crowler · 11/01/2014 08:21

Ahem.

Who was the z-lister. Please?

ChaosTrulyReigns · 11/01/2014 11:15

Mortified? Gosh, no. How bizarre. A n d completely sobre as I am now. Obvis. Grin

Z lister? a clue - he was fired...

OP posts:
Crowler · 11/01/2014 11:26

Fired. From his job?

Spermysextowel · 11/01/2014 11:34

An Apprentice? The one who was a whole field full if horses & not just a 1 trick pony or something?
