Crap meals outI'd chosen to take my in-laws to one of my favourite restaurants, only to discover it had changed hands the week before. We waited half an hour to get menus. The waitress broke the cork in the wine we ordered. She got our order wrong. The food was luke-warm, mine was overcooked, the rest was undercooked. After waiting another 40 minutes for the last course, we were told that we couldn't have any as the chef had "forgotten to de-frost the puddings".
Let's just say they didn't get a tip. Tell us of your crap meals out.

Every sodding family meal since the age of six......my Dad feels the compelling need to trot out his array of "hilarious" restaurant jokes.
Someone drops a plate - "Sack the juggler!" followed by howls of laughter.
The sweet trolley arrives - "Is that a trifle or am I wrong?" (to be said to sound vaguely like "a meringue") followed by howls of laughter.
The bread rolls turn up - "Do you have to use your loaf for this job?" "Do you earn a lot of dough?" followed by howls of laughter.
The Soup of the day turns up - "Oh souper!" followed by howls of laughter.
At the chinese when all the dishes turn up at once - "ooh lovely. Whats everyone else having?" followed by howls of laughter.
At the indian placing an order - "Couple of Naans and a grandad!" followed by howls of laughter.
When the bill arrives he hums the theme tune to 'The Bill'.
He once ordered shark just so he could hum the 'Jaws' music as it arrived.
I could go on (making a 'bra' out of his napkin, telling the waitress there's something wrong with his spoon and handing her his fork and don't even get me started on the "leg or breast" shennanigans at Christmas dinner every year) but frankly I'm losing the will to live.
