    The manager of the restaurant wanted to show his hospitality as we had spent rather a lot, so at the end of the meal we all got a round of shots for free !!

    And sy02 and I toasted in our usual way. Our neighbours froze on the spot and wouldn't join in. Funny we thought.

    Then on the way back to the car they explained their problem with us. Using the word "chinky" was getting us some looks.

    LOL - you daft racist!

    Me: I like a nice quail egg.
    Si: NO, QUAIL LEG!

    Titter.

    I was once in a posh restaraunt with some friends who had brought along some other friends.

    The first course was ordered and the friend-of-a-friend chap ordered fish - "Can I have the Turbo please" (as in the turbocharger on a car)

    I picked up on this and told him that the 'T' wasn't silent on the fish 'Turbot'

    He then went on to order dessert and asked for the Sorbet - stressing the T on the end

    It was like having dinner with the Trotters!

    Smaller than pigeons, normally you'd get one whole as a starter.
