    Not too bad, feeling better today (thank you Mr. Lemsip) and I have stocked up on Strepsils for the day :) Thanks!
    Glad to hear!

    I only need to buy for my dad and one small thing for my buddies but I'm broke until Friday - still waiting to get expenses from work :mad:

    Anybody else all leaving shopping until the last minute?

    ...something I've done at weddings since is give a tip to one of the bar staff early in the night before they get too busy and tell them to look after you later :) They'll remember you if they're anyway decent at their job and you won't have to wait too long for drinks that night :)

    Sometimes works, sometimes doesn't.. I worked in the bar trade for 8 years and some peeps in bars just don't get it. They tip you but then think they own you for the night. It doesn't work that way.

    Yes its nice to get a tip and yes I will certainly keep an eye out for them every time they are at the bar but I will not be dropping everything just to suit them. Then they get p*ssed off and the usual line comes out.

    "I'm paying your wages"

    And I reply..

    "Well thats very decent if you, so if you're paying my wages, what are the other 100 people at the bar doing? Giving me a tip?"

    Usually shuts em up fairly quickly.. :pac: :D

    Anyway,

    Morning all, Only 6 days to Xmas!!!! :P

    Not last minute, but I had my sisters pressie arranged and the shop I was buying it off announced late last week that it won't be in until after Xmas, so cancelled that and now have to go order it online and pay through the nose for express shipping :mad:

    So much for supporting your local economy :rolleyes:

    I normally do, but I have been super organised this year. Just have to get the last thing for my mom, sister and boy and I can get them all on my lunch :D Sorted!

    Last year my Christmas shopping was a disaster as I had to do it one handed :pac:

    Waiting on expenses sucks D :(

    That should be a good wedding TP - NYE is all the rage now for weddings, it's a good time as NYE can be pretty crap!

    Welcome miamee :)

    True - you'll have it happen to you every now and again - tbh - I find the people who act in that manner haven't even tipped tbh, dear god when I think of some of the people I came across doing bar work.....*shudders!

    Shít buzz on the present scenario too, hope the shipping comes through for you at least!

    Can't see the video at work, but I thought you were going with Billie Myers. Instead, after a google search, I see McFly(aka the poor man's Busted)?
