How often do you eat out?

[minestrone]

Friday lunch and probably one evening.

Eating out does my tits in sometimes, I dont eat sweets and dont care for coffee that much, as soon as I am finished the main I a quite happy to put the fork down and get out.

Trying to keep the waistline down I usually opt for a main only but at least one lunchtime per week do three courses. Saturdays are for cooking at home while entertaining.

Every night while contracting away from home (and that's at least the last 7 years) and possibly 1 or 2 nights when at home...and I'm not even a fat bastard (yet!)

I had a sandwich whilst sitting in my car in Sainsbury's car park this lunchtime. Does that count?

Was it a Sainsbury's sandwich? If so, that's technically 'eating in'.

If it was a Tesco's sandwich and you drove to Sainsbury's carpark to eat it, then that's 'eating out.' This one counts.

Used to be almost every weekend but since the sprog was born we don't do that any more

Ditto me for a while. Now he's older we eat out quite a bit with friends etc. I wouldn't do so if he were a shit:bag child though.

That brings up another question. Is it fair to other diners to bring a noisy / bawling child to a public eatery?

Too many women around here treat restaurants like a creche. Waiters carrying around plates of hot food and toddlers running around unchecked, squealing as they treat the resturant like a playground?

I'd ban all children under the age of twelve and those meeting the criteria subject to review dependent on behaviour.

Once in a blue moon.

but we go quite often when Mrs EO eats and I drink. for some reason I cannot eat and drink ale at the same time.
must be psycometrical or paranormal or something.

thinking about it, I dont get great pleasure from eating, like I know some people do

Eating out can be a decent nosebag at the Waterside in Bray or a "special" in Subway.

Failed poll.

Oh, hang on, there was no poll. Failed thread.

It's not just toddlers

eating with mouth open
having a public row

LoL

However much we love them, every parent can relate to the phrase "sh1tbag child" at some point.

[edit] - strangely when I read this post, MaryPoppins did say "shitbag" and not tulipbag

is there a time delay on the CUK censor? [/edit]
