A Yugoslav friend used to say that it's not a party unless someone has killed a pig.

Hah, it's very easy to miss-read an audience. I've done it a couple of times recently.Originally posted by TestMangler View PostDuring my own wedding speech, I held up my hand to pass some bland comment on my new wedding ring, but i had already slipped it off under the table. When i held up the empty ring finger, I said "oh no, it must've come off in that hooker's ass". You'll be surprised how quiet things can go at a busy wedding reception if you mis-read your audience....

I spat out my champagne along with a few others that managed to get the reference.

Went to someone's garden party the other year who did a hog roast - main problem was they did not seem to have put any suace/baste/rub etc on the meat so it ws just plain pretty much unsalted pork I mean it was ok but just pretty bland - think they missed a trick tbh.
Also @Ladymuck - No.
