We didn't have mobile garden furniture in my day. We sat on old boxes that my Dad borrowed from the local grocers.

These boxes... nailed down? I mean, a box is usually quite portable

Boxes? You had boxes? You lucky lucky bast@rd! Don't you talk to me about boxes! When I were a lad, we had to sit on broken glass and rusty nails, wearing nowt but hand me down shorts. We used to dream of having a box. _________________John Vella BSc (Hons), PGCE - Still the official forum prankster and crude remarker  Sorry  I'll behave now. Promise

I'd heard of the London Tax, but that's ridiculous. Unless you're feeding about 450 people.

Why is it riduculous? 12% is pretty reasonable and the staff earnt it. I would be disgusted if was anything less. A lot of places add service charges as standard in London. _________________Still the official cheeky one

I've certainly seen places (outside London as well) adding service charge for large groups (say 10+). I hope to hell that bill was for more than 10 people
