My sis used to work in a hotel at home and they (pikeys, tinkers, knackers, gypos - pick one) used to come in and ask if they could book a wedding in the hotel. Invariably they'd bring 25 or 30k cash - in a plastic bag, I might add - to pay for it.... would cost way more than that to fix the place after they leftBazza gets caught
