So in summary you spent over £200 and didn’t even get a shag

Better luck next time

No, in summary I went 50/50 on the bill so spent £100, I didnt get a shag but I didn't go out with her with that intention in mind, though if she had been really ******* fit I might have changed my mind. I just wanted a quality night out at a top restaurant with a classy / intelligent women and thats what I got.

Yes, and if the police report doesn't use the words "alcohol was a factor" then you're doing it wrong.

I almost never drink French wine any more. Apologies to you and to Francko if you assumed that I was taking French wine as standard. Italy over France is no contest.

You are forgiven as long as you also admit Fiat and AlfaRomeo supremacy over Renault and Peugeout.

Apperently she was in her younger years, she won the national Mr Butlins or Pontins in the mid 60's when it was a big thing, and best legs in some other comp, but I have NEVER fancied my mum

So did my missus. What a co-incidence.

In the end we went for this red £30 a bottle was not offensive at all Cahors, “Le Combal”.

so only a 250% mark up on the wholesale price then

I'm with Francko on this one, but I have no idea what the selection of Italian wines is like in the UK. Here in NL it's very good, and you'll generally get much better value for your euros from Italy than France.

That's why you took the girl who looks like her into posh restaurant...

[Bumfluff]

Is your mum a looker then?

Nah I had met her before couple weeks back but I was rather drunk at time and her facebook picture looked great when sober and not like my mum. She has actually just texted me saying 'what a lovely night she had' , may be I might change my mind got to get over the mum thing though , also just want a bit of fun at the moment
