A waiter's friend is a type of corkscrew.

And I don't think so, I have the Greenfield Backpack and rug, I want that cooler as well, but in green. :)

Isn't it the corkscrew bit in the picture? Its not to my taste but then I've never been to Spain...

catswag · 22/05/2015 13:48

oh thanks, my guess would have been something that ties around the bottle or helps you tip it up

What Bicarb said. Or a euphamism Wink

I have loads of corkscrews floating around but my waiters' friend is the indispensable one. Knife to slit the foil, corkscrew and bottle opener and can usually salvage the situation if some lesser tool has splintered the cork.

I like the carrier! Although, I'd probably faint if I started drinking wine on the beach in Spain at lunchtime.

howabout · 22/05/2015 13:54

I think YWBU to have glass on the beach in case of breakages and I never mix waves and wine cos I am a safety first sort of girl.

I had a waiters friend and a heely wheel remover taken out of my handbag and confiscated at airport security. They were in an inside pocket I'd forgotten about.

Where we were in Spain on holiday a couple of years ago all the Spanish folk had very impressive picnic accoutrements. I don't think that would make you look twattish.

catswag · 22/05/2015 13:58

I would make sure glass stayed on a table
and I woundn't get pissed

They are Polycarbonate Wine Glasses which are not glasses but a form of plastic

howabout · 22/05/2015 14:08

In that case I think you would look the very thing and not at all twattish.

OnIlkleyMoorBahTwat · 22/05/2015 14:10

Oh yes, Notso. Spanish families really know how to do a day at the beach.

We use a very cheap Ikea coolbag and take cans of lager bought from the supermarket and chilled in the hotel room fridge .

I thought this thread was going to be about one of those wooden table things which hold a wine bottle and two glasses, which you stick in the ground on a spike.

A waiters friend is excellent, though I do have affection for the froggy ones. I knew I'd been accepted in my waitressing job when the head barman gave me my very own waiters friend to keep. That cooler looks excellent, I might get one for lovely days in the park.
