sitting down in a restaurant having not scanned the menu beforehand and realising this is going to be way more expensive than you imagined it might be.

Went to Hawskmoor in Spitalfields in London the other week, ,my mate booked the table for us and our ladies, said it was great steak...so I at least expected a bit pricey and I don't mind once in a while paying decent money for a meal if its worth it. However we sat down and within a few seconds of seeing the menu I knew it was going to be second mortgage time. The food was very nice but we only had a main each and a bottle of wine per couple and it was £125 per couple...and tbh I left hungry. Daylight robbery ...yet the place was packed out!

I was always good at sums so I make that £250 (did that include the tip?) On Sunday, my son and his family came down from Nottingham and my daughter and her family came over from not far away. Me, her indoors and the two families = 10. We went to our current favourite place, the Horse & Groom at Hare Hatch (Berkshire). We all had main meals, Sunday roast etc., - (excellent) puddings, drinks and coffee. £220. I can be in London in 40 minutes but avoid it like the plague.

Yes the whole bill was about £250 and that did include the 'service charge'...for one plate of food and a couple of glasses of wine each! As you say that could be the bill for a table of 10 with desserts at a perfectly decent restaurant

Well I mean, they can tell me what level the sea will be in 50 years, or how much an iceberg will melt by 2075, that the Moon is moving away from Earth by a fingernail every 50 years, but tomorrow mornings weather is a phantom mystery to them, ffs.

So you don't want to know about the hurricane hitting the US East coast tomorrow? Tough that because it's all you will hear about for days

If it gets me wet, or rather my parcels, (wet bar codes are a PITA), then very much so. If not, utterly arsed if I am honest.

This is a weather report rant.

I'm not expecting sympathy on this one, but my in-laws are getting on my nerves...

Mrs. tree is very big on always getting on with everyone, even if it means grinning and pretending to have fun for the sake of doing things that her family want to do even when it's not of interest to us. We've had several minor instances of this over the last couple years and I am very much of the view that if someone's being a prick it's important to tell them, and if you are invited along to something that is of no interest to you then its perfectly ok to decline. In her family, these are both cardinal sins.

For the second time this year we are going on a hot beach resort-style holiday (neither of us like these, we are both ski fanatics) with her family, because all her siblings crave hot weather and apparently 33 degrees for two entire months in England doesn't count. After finally getting to grips with this I thought I could tough it out, but I've just discovered that the dates we are away for this mean that she and I will be unable to attend either of John Williams' live performances this year. The man is well into his eighties and has announced that he will retire after the next Star Wars movie, so I'm now worried that we might not ever get to see him in the flesh. She won't budge, so instead of enjoying an evening listening to one of the world's greatest ever composer/conductors, I have to slap on a ton of factor fifty and try not to murder a bunch of spoilt tits who mock me for liking classical music in the first place.

I don't even feel better for ranting about it on here ffs.

WOOL
