Yeah fair enough. I'm big on tipping and I understand where the sentiment is coming from and agree with it. I'd still probably just leave it after you've departed the restaurant for the reasons I already gave. What did you do in the end pal? @MEADOWXI
A card with a tenner and a note was handed on Sunday.

It's on his list to save, after he's sorted Gaza obviously, but before he gets Primark into Rochdale.
Truly a man that covers everyones needs.

I am getting on my nerves for not paying attention last night.
Out for a quick dinner last night before going to watch a recording of the BBC R4 news Quiz in Aberdeen, so early dinner in Miller & Carter to use up a voucher. Bill comes and its £84.60. When paying I hand the gift card over, it's £80.00 so only a balance of £4.60 to pay on card. The waitress had been good and basically a free meal so on the screen of the card machine it had tip options. Either 8%, 10%, 12% or amount. I hit 12% and tapped to pay without thinking. Checking my phone later have an alert from bank, get one for every transaction. Confirming I have paid £5.15. It took 12% of £4.60 not 12% of £84.60 which I genuinely thought it would. Feel like the tightest bugger alive today, it close to home and feel like sticking a tenner in a card and handing it in for the waitress. Was a genuine error but feel like have taken the piss with the tip.

The same technique can be used at work. Leave your computer on screen saver, and a spare coat over the back of your chair when you go home at night. In the morning people will think you're in early when they get into the office.
Used to work with a guy that always wore two jackets to work. Two hour lunches were covered by leaving one jacket on back of seat and wear the other. He would hit the pub, even when folk twigged, there was the day we had to phone to the pub to tell him a manger was on the way looking for him, he left by the back door of the pub as the manager came in the front. Days when you could have a pint at lunchtime.

Think it can be a bit of an ego thing, believing if they have got away with it for so long they are too smart to be caught, and flaunting it in the face of the police/media.

I’ve probably told this before but the Queen died on my wee boys birthday and just as we were singing hip hip hooray was the exact moment the flag was lowered and Huw the paedo announced it. I love to think what anyone walking past hearing the celebrations would have thought.
Least the BBC are stuffed from showing too much on the anniversary of old Liz pegging out, by the time the cut out the stuff fronted by Huw Edwards they won't have much more than enough for a 30min One Show special.

This really is quite petty, but I absolute do not get folk making a thing of anniversaries of shite things happening. Can just about accept birthdays and Wedding anniversaries, but having a wallow about in the anniversary of a loss is baffling to me.
It's the anniversary of the passing plus,
1st Christmas without,
1st Birthday (their birthday and the dead one) where you weren't there,
1st Easter without resurrection
1st Clyde win since passing.
Some I can get a younger sibling lost or child but it was your granny, it was 17 years ago, and she was 96 when she went,
hard luck on missing the telegram from the Queen but she had a good innings so let it go.

Based purely on personal experience, the one time I was in the home end at Central Park (as a neutral watching them play Queen's Park), the Cowdenbeath fans were permanently raging throughout a game when they were *winning*, right up until the last two or three minutes, when the rage subsided a little. The players and manager were seething too (manager was carded and one of the players was hooked for violent conduct). It's an angry wee corner of Fife, for sure.

So just before an updated report on MP safety is due to be published and to recommend extending exclusion zones for protests around MPs offices Hoyle is lying about the safety of MPs,
Introduce protest exclusion zones around MPs’ offices, says Sunak adviser (telegraph.co.uk)
Protest exclusion zones should be introduced around MPs’ offices, the prime minister’s official adviser on political violence has recommended in the wake of fresh safety concerns.
Lord Walney will use a forthcoming report to urge Rishi Sunak to extend “buffer zone” powers, which currently cover schools and abortion clinics, to constituency surgeries, Parliament and council chambers.
His recommendation comes after figures from across the political spectrum have been targeted in their constituencies by pro-Palestinian protesters since the Oct 7 Hamas attacks on Israel and the war in Gaza.
On Wednesday, Sir Lindsay Hoyle, the Commons Speaker, said he had chosen a Labour amendment to a motion on the conflict after being warned about threats to the party’s MPs if they were not allowed to support the proposal.
Lord Walney’s review, which was set to be submitted shortly after the Oct 7 attacks but has now been updated, will call for the expansion of expedited public space protection orders.
These orders were backed by MPs in 2022 and approved by the Lords last year following anti-abortion rallies at clinics across the country and demonstrations against Covid vaccines outside schools.
