I do hate it when I complain and all I get is:
"Nobody has mentioned it before".
I went to a cafe for lunch today where I have been several times over the last 2 years; I love their baked potatoes with Coronation Chicken.
They have menus in A5 plastic pocket folders/booklet thingies. To be honest, the one on my tables was acting like a petri dish; it was disgusting.
The meal was fine but, when I went to pay, I took the offending article to the till and told them what I thought.
It was as if I had sprouted an extra head - total disbelief. Then she uttered the line above. My retort was "Just because nobody has said anything before doesn't mean I am wrong". I wish I had added that other people may not have SAID anything but may have made a mental note not to return.
Assuming she was correct and I was the first to say something, there has to be a first person at some stage. How long will she wait? Until 20 people have mentioned it?

One has to hope their kitchen is cleaner than their menus.
Just a thought.!
Bet she's praying that service is never so slow that people get tempted to eat the menus.
Ray: So far so good. This is the point I made to her - she goes to so much trouble in other respects.
Steve: Yuk
just as well you are not eating in my house I think. There's no telling what you might find incubating in my fridge, or worse still in my microwave. I tell myself that I'm building stong immune systems in my children, or perhaps I'm just trying to poison Mr Angelic! Now there's a thought!!!
Dark Angel: Are you related to Mrs Saw?
Happy days. Fond memories of the local Whimpy. Fag ash and dried egg.
Marg: I remember my first Wimpy.
