This is a question Weddings

Attending a wedding is like being handed a licence to act like a twat. Oh how I laughed when I sobered up and realised I'd nicked most of the plates and cutlery from the posh hotel lunch and those vague memories of stealthily exiting like a cat-burglar had in-fact involved falling out of the hotel, knives and forks clattering onto the steps.

Tell us your wedding stories.

silver service
Once in dire need of cash I managed to blag a job as a silver service waiter at a posh hotel in spite of the fact I'd never done it before and had only the vaguest idea what it actually was.

First day on the job - a wedding reception. First task, clear up all the pims, champagne and sundry other alcoholic dregs the guests had left when they went down for dinner. Naturally I "cleared" most of it down my gullet.

Second task - silver service for the wedding guests. Within 30 seconds I'd managed to tip gravy all down the bride but fortified by alcohol I soldiered on regardless.

I wasn't asked back a second time. But I still went and enquired what was going on when I realised I hadn't been paid. They still owe me, the bastards.
