Dine And Dash
"All the rage at the moment Anyone tried it ? Not really a dine and dash however I was once involved in an unfortunate episode at a KFC involving a drunken bet, bargain buckets and the open hatch of a backed up XR3i getaway car It ended badly with concussion chicken strewn all over the road and pavement and a visit from the boys in blue"

"Years ago two friends of mine guided the taxi, which I had got out of one mile earlier, down a cul de sac which had a cut through. They both knew that they were brassic so the alighted and ran for it. They were a long way from home and got very wet and muddy before arriving home in the small hours. The next time we met up they related their story to me and I told them that I had paid for us all, from the whip that I held, when I had got out of the taxi."

"Was in a pub in Columbo one time, it was packed as England were there for a test series, me and me mate had about 5 pints each and asked for the bill, waited for ages no bill, so asked again, no bill, we agreed that we will try one more time and if no bill we're walking, asked again, still no bill, so walked off at normal pace towards the exit half expecting a tap on the shoulder, but nobody gave a monkies :-)"

Re: Dine And Dash
I disapprove of it... but did it once in my youth - Was with the girlfriend in Paris and had heard about a restaurant that was definitely well out of our price range but the food was supposed to be exceptional. I was warned though that the waiters were famously grumpy. We counted our cash out and thought we could just about afford it on our final night. The food was exceptional as promised but the waiters were the rudest I have ever come across by some distance before or since. I asked for the bill several times. Eventually a saucer was thrown on to our table with a bill. It wasn't our bill and had not only been paid but came with a lot of change too. I trousered the change and decamped sharpish. I have never felt bad about getting paid to eat there!

Re: Dine And Dash
"Many years ago after going to the premier place to rock your face at the Opera on the Green in Shepherds Bush, we would fall into the kebab shop at Hammersmith Broadway, where I became very proficient and ordering and then losing myself in the throng of pissed up clubers before pick up my donor and by passing the payment. I got so good at it I often returned to shop saying my chips and drink were missing. Did it for about about 3 months. Sticking it to Zorba then they got wise to it and put a stop to my Doner and Dash ."

Re: Dine And Dash
I remember Frank Carson telling the one about the Irishman doing a runner - he paid for the meal and ran out without eating it !!

Dine on gash? Perhaps in my younger years but now it's an occasional amuse bouche :-)

Re: Dine And Dash
Dine and dash is the behaviour of sub-human scum. If you can't afford to eat out then stay in and eat a Pot Noodle rather than rip off a service provider and its staff.

"Violator - Haha! I think sometimes folk just want something for nothing, regardless. I saw an interview with Barry Hearn recently he said he still takes home the tiny bottles of shampoo from hotel rooms."

"On another occasion when I had leg in plaster my mates decided to do a runner from the Indian we was in leaving me to foot the bill of course . On another note I was in a cafe the other day which had a sign in the window stating card payments only However by the till was a tips bowl with several coins in it. Just for the hell of it I claimed I had no cards so would only be able to pay cash. I was then told ""we don't take cash"" I pointed to the tips bowl but the penny still didn't drop so told them it was cash or nothing at all Eventually and only after the owner was called my cash was accepted"

"El Scorchio 3:05 Mon Jun 3 Mister, you just assured me that I could speak. Look, I'm under what? Gentlemen, this is democracy manifest. Have a look at the headlock here, see that chap over there? he- GET YOUR HAND OFF MY PENIS! This is the bloke who got me on the penis people. Why did you do this to me, for what reason, what is the charge? eating a meal? a succulent chinese meal. Oh, that's a nice headlock sir, oh, ah yes, I see that you know your judo well. Good one. And you sir, are you waiting to receive my limp penis? How dare - get your hands off me! Tetta, and farewell."

"When working in Athens, I woke up one morning and just knew I hadn't paid my restaurant bill at a place I frequented quite often. When back that evening, and asked, they confirmed, but said not to worry about it as I spent so much time there :-)"

"Chevy - Ag! Paying first and then getting on your toes is certainly a leveller for the restaurants. Did a couple back when from a Ghandi or two, they use to chase us down the road brandishing kitchen knives, gave it a few weeks and went back into the same gaff. Wouldn't have the legs for a dash these days."

Re: Dine And Dash
Me and a couple of mates had a curry on Mile End rd along from Benjis Nightclub obviously pissed but the restaurant stayed open after 2am. Sitting down ordered our food then one mates gets up and says fuck it I’m doing a runner. Me and my other mate looking at each other confused as our starters hadn’t even come out yet. 20 mins later our mate wonders back in just in time for our starters to arrive. Sits down and tucks in.
