      Perhaps not the usual wedding anniversary outing for a contractor but we're too tired to go somewhere posh.
      How long have you been married? Did you get her a present?

          13 years one month and one day.

          Same present as always: nothing.

              We would have gone to a posh restaurant in the town; I had booked a table.

              We were going to take champagne and so I phoned and asked how much they charge for corkage. They said ... £9.50 !

              So I cancelled the booking.

                Not even the opportunity to do some ironing.

                    But charging a tenner for corkage?

                    It cost them a booking.

                      It does seem alot - maybe they had other bookings who they figured would each buy wine?

                      I rarely drink so most restaurants lose from me. Mineral water mostly.
