Perhaps I have low standards, but I don't think I've ever had a bad meal out in London. Lousy service, yes. Perhaps, they keep you waiting forever = you are so hungry you'll eat sandpaper. Which would explain the chafing.
I've never done a runner. I've even returned excessive amounts of change. I'm as honest as the day is long (which is why I move to Norway every winter - only way I can make a living).

Consciously not paid for something flat out -- hell no. That's rude.

Nope, I just don't get it. Nasty people? Who tell fibs? You're scaring me now.
Also, it was actually december '00, not thi Christmas. And it still gives me a warm and sexy glow.

This question was only prompted by our Mexican fiesta, Tracer, admit it. The worst run out in history was with Otis Wheeler, we were all in this dumpy ass diner in, where, Northampton? Who the fuck knows, anyhow for no reason whatsoever - I mean we all had the cash - we decide to get up and go without leaving the money. The problem was that I somehow got stuck on the edge of the table (my trenchcoat, incidentally, actually ripped because of this, and like the puke on the collar I still haven't fixed it) and while everyone else walked outside, I was stuck with the waitress staring me down. But then everyone CAME BACK for me, and we STILL RAN OUT. So in retrospect I'm not sure if we completed the worst or the best run out in history.

Then the waiters and the restaurant owner come round your house and kick your head in.
Curry house in Camden there was a dispute over whether we had paid all the bill or not (we had) so we ran down the road flicking the V's and bad mouthing the joint. Ha ha.

So, dine and dash baptism tonight, involved lots of running but I'm fast and it was worth it: service was awful and we really had to go.
