A nice thing about a holiday is being served properly even in an

the kitchen they would sell more food as people would be more inclined
to order extras. Nothing worse than getting to the head of the queue at
the bar and then having to go back and ask "Is that with peas or beans?"
I hate it after a meal when grandson decides a sweet would be nice and I
have to go back to the bar and repeat the process. If there was a waiter
we might all have a sweet every time and another round of drinks.??.

That's what you get for eating at a pub pretending to be a restaurant,
along
with microwaved food more often than not. There are plenty of inexpensive
restaurants with table service, there are plenty of pubs with restaurant
sections with table service. Take your business elsewhere if you don't
like
the level of service offered. Don't forget to tip your waiter if he has
done
his job well.

Trouble with the restaurants with table service is that too many of
them aren't cheap (especially the puds), and they substitute tasty food
with presentation. Whereas within some limits I doan, in fact, give a
**** how its presented.

Oh you philistine.

Didn't you know "you eat with your eyes"

(no, I don't buy it either)
