We thought as it was the Aussie's first Xmas here we would go to a particular large London Store to buy some Xmas decorations. We bought some and decided to have lunch in one of their restaurants - talk about customer service - or rather lack of it - the guy who served us would rather have been anywhere but working there and certainly not serving us with our lunch. He started a punch up over what we ordered because we simply didn't understand he mumbled comments about the food and when asked to repeat what he said with a pleasant 'sorry, could you repeat that' he huffed and puffed and mumbled again. Food was basically frisbeed at us across the restaurant and when we came to pay he wandered off with the money and didn't return - no way was he getting a 15 pound tip off me - we asked for the change and he actually stuck his bottom lip out. Had we not had to rush back for the rugby (don't ask) and I had not been so speechless about the attitude I'd have called him out. If only we'd have had an 'enjoy' ....
