Crap meals out
I'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.

Do it yourself
Never, ever, ever plan to go for a meal out on the following: Valentines Day, Mothering Sunday, New Year or in the month of December. You are asking for trouble. Not only will you end up paying 50% more, you can guarantee crap service, and possible food poisoning. If you're feeling romantic, festive etc. get your arse down to M&S or Sainsburys. Save yourself time, money and effort and you even get a nice bit of satisfaction of cooking something "homemade". Obviously not made in your home (or any home for that matter). But you can lie godammit!
Also, never eat in McDonalds. Ever.
