tis the party season.....

so it's the party season and mad friday but sometimes corporate hospitality in llandod is not all that it should be.
A former employee of the metropole regaled to us how the metropole were given a couple of crates of grot by carlsberg tetley by way of thanking them for their business.
So slimeball MD Baird Murray decided to keep them for the staff xmas party.
Quite generous when you think about it.
However Mr Baird Murray in the true spirit of xmas decided to charge his staff £1 a bottle for the freebies at the party.

Bah humbug

I was at a Christmas do at the Met a couple of weeks ago.

No-one could decide what the soup was. There were diverse offers from 'potato' to 'sprout and cabbage'. Not even the head waiter could tell us, and, funnily enough, he didn't offer to go to the kitchens and ask.

You'd have to pay me (and more than a quid) to drink Carlsberg.

perhaps the confusion over the soup was because they couldnt find the right tins seeing as they buy joblots many without labels.

im sure a man of your discerning taste mr r could be persuaded to drink denmarks finest,since when have you been fussy?

You mean it wasn't crafted from scratch by the chef from the finest local, seasonal produce? I'm shocked and saddened.
