I've been in places that, although they'd serve the "unworthy", the staff went out of their way to make the customer feel very uncomfortable. The upshot being, of course, that said customer was unlikely to ever return. The only reason such places tolerated me was because I was the bloke sent to repair their lights. Even then, they'd rather I wasn't on the trading floor when the place was open for business. -- Regards _ / ) "The blindingly obvious is / _)rad never immediately apparent" I'm surfing on a wave of nostalgia for an age yet to come Nostalgia - Buzzcocks
