When you're contracting away from home, do you eat out by yourself - visit a bar for a drink or two, stroll to a restaurant, etc? Do you read or spend the time looking like you're embarrassed to have no friends?

Of course, unless you're trawling the dating sites for a bit of fun or some sad fck who never leaves the hotel room :eyes

Doesn’t bother me at all, used to it. Pub type places are best as most people don’t mind sharing a table and a chat.
 
I was out on me own tonight in NE2, met some people in a Bar and chewed the fat.

Boring fookers, if off to my sordid little grief hole for a bit of iPad porn.....

In an Indian now, she's quite happy with it has it happens....
 
Is that in Newcastle? :rollin:

Yes, but having had the curry in serious mode now, wonderful...

Faultless...

Well happy for a jizzfest on xshare on iPad when I get back to my sordid little grief hole just around the corner...

I cant understand those kinda people.

On a business trip before, all my other colleagues wanted to eat ASAP, then go to their rooms alone. We were in a lovely area (compared to our home area) as well.

I rather liked going back to the hotel, savouring a company paid feast, then walking and exploring a nice local pub for one or two or walking and enjoying the summer evening.

They'd rather stay alone in their rooms than join you outside. :wink
 
Definitely. My favourite trick is to go to a smart place, pay in cash, then take ages counting the change when it comes back so that everybody thinks I'm skint but eccentric.
 
Hallo there! Just got back from a splendid evening having a beer and some food in the West End. On my own.
