family members to celebrate the birthday of the glw. We are going to a rather nice seafood restaurant in Brighton.

A visit to a seafood restaurant means certain things to me. It means foaming tankards of black velvet, half a dozen natives and then lobsters or Dover Soles. It does not mean fillets of sea bass or pan-fried cod or any other standard fish dish I could cook for myself any day of the week. However, if I order what I would like, when it comes to splitting the bill, the majority of those present will shít themselves.

What should I do, Awimb? Compromise my beliefs and eat ordinary people's food? That would be dishonest. Insist on paying for everyone? That would be humiliating for the other gentlemen present. Just get on with it in a cheery spirit of 'fúck you'?

The one who made the invitation is paying; proper order. Enjoy your oysters.

Lunch report: Black Velvet, oysters, Dover Sole, Chocolate Marquis. Excellent in every respect. Service exceptional. Lunch evolved into a 10 hour drinking session. There was even some cider. Allin all, a successful day.

how was the bill split?

Oh, I paid it. There was never any other likely outcome, I'm afraid.

you're a soft touch, sc.

I'm a idiot, i. But I suppose it's important for a chap to remain true to himself.

Would black velvet be seen as a normal beverage to accompany seafood or is this merely a personal thing?
