Overheard at the LFGSS golf club bar

I was a waiter at the 40th birthday party for the producer of that show. And or Dec, no idea which is which, fell asleep in the sun during the day and had a beetroot face and was semi delusional, Judy from Richard & Judy was so shitfaced she opened the cage lift about two feet too early and fell face first into the foyer (Andy Peters helped me get her into a chair), Philip Schofield arrived in a helicopter too pissed to speak and in the morning I saw Cat Deeley stark naked when the birthday boy (her boyfriend) let me into their room without her knowing to deliver a tray of breakfast, and gave me £50 for the privilege

Amazing and reads like a Jim'll Paint It 😂

Haha! I remember once getting some money for a tour and I just couldn’t work it out, like there must be some kind of mistake

My biggest payday was a 30min set at a record fair in Mallorca. We arrived on the Thursday afternoon, 5 star accommodation in Palma old town, gig wasn't until Saturday evening, fed and watered (and etc) for the duration, we were coming home with ~£650 each. It was mental.

Our singer lost one of his US passports on the way back to LHR, the important one with his visa in it. We had to give him most of the money back to pay for his fucking immigration lawyer, new passport, visa. Easy come, etc.

Just needs a huge pile of weed and a handgun stuffed down some tracksuit pants...

£14k in cash on a train to go and buy a car, when the owner refused any other payment method

How badly did you want THAT car? I'd have told them to poke it.

I was personally liable for the entire amount

I don't see how they'd make that stick, given the delivery arrangement.

Let me know if you're carrying that much again and I can arrange your "robbery".

Yeah, any real Aussie would've spunked the £20k on booze, drugs and women, before even thinking about going to the airport.

He did chuck his housemates enough to have a party after which they woke up having forgotten all about him, or at least any details that might identify him

Hahaha now THAT sounds like an Aussie :)

Similar situation- which I first became aware of when all non-British staff were asked to provide a copy of their passport.

Remember the amount of money I used to take to the post office? That was from the bar on Regent Street Turns out that my peer at Henrietta Place had bundled up her banking and headed out to the post office- and never returned. The cleaner called another cleaner at a different bar to sound the alarm and an investigation was started.

The lady in question was Polish, was renting a room in a shared house under a different name (also not her own) and had popped back on the day she vanished from the bar, grabbed her passport and a bag and headed for (per her housemate) the airport.

I don’t know how far £45,000 went in Poland in the mid 2,000’s, but clearly far enough for her to be worth it.

"holy shit, we broke even!" (Took 5 weeks off work to sit in a stinky van and come home with €20 each)

out of context self referral

somewhere to display the Cervélo

Easy come, etc.

if you buy a picasso you're a fool

Miro, signal, manoeuvre.

reported for misquotation

What is the term for for a story that has a basis in truth? Looking at others seems it was quite common.

The id/driving licence thing is quite common for clandestines living here.

amazing! ❤️❤️❤️

Sounds hellish
