There are lots of reasons tipping does not happen, never a set one. I have had some people with good attitudes and some people with bad attitudes being non tippers. Its just not fun spending your night serving a Huge table keeping you from serving others and then they dont tip. I am just so glad i am done waitering. Been a good year since. I enjoyed it, but there is so much unfairness going on, if not towards you, towards some of the people who are working with you.
The p990 hobbes? Tell us how you find it when you get it. Would like to know.
The w950i vs. M600i, if you own one of these, i promise you it will be better. There is a 3 week period of adjustment for any phone. My keypad was crap for me till i got used to it. Now i have trouble with nokias:) its all up about personal taste. My friends phone, the n80 was my second choice. I read reviews and someone said the keypad is uncomfortably situated. I tried his phone. For me that is true, cos i have big hands. He has small hands so it works for him.

Ya that would be quite obvious, but as I have not done waitering myself, I don't have too much room to talk on the subject, I guess.
Hope you have a better evening tonight though, boet.
Soak up some of that 'chill-stoep' environment; we'll have to check out that legendary stoep next time we're in SA. I plan to spend a week or so in Gauteng next July, with close friends of ours in Jozi.

Boet, where i grew up you learnt to stand your ground, even in the face of overwhelming numbers. And when the situation demanded immediate action, you never ever hesitate but use enough force to bring matters to a very swift conclusion. Learn to know what works best for you, hone it and use when necessary...
Wrt tipping, i've made it a practice to tip generously. My daughter could very well spend some time waitering someday, so i'm "paying it forward".

Ya, the left-over braai food came in handy for lunch today too.
Took this pic with the N73 late this afternoon, after cutting the grass. A bloody good thing there is something called air traffic control...

Did you guys hear about this...
£840,000 ( approx R11 760 000) car in world's costliest crash:
Motorists near Chertsey in Surrey may have witnessed the world's costliest car crash. One of the vehicles involved was an £840,000, eight-litre Bugatti Veyron, the world's most expensive and fastest street-legal car. The crash happened on a 40mph section of the B375 when the hand-crafted Veyron - which has a top speed in excess of 250mph - went out of control while doing about 100mph. The supercar collided with a Vauxhall (Opel outside UK) Astra before crashing into trees on a roadside bank.
Would love to hear the insurance company's reaction...

@da wanqsta: Heard about that crash last week, remember someone actually posted pictures on Esato and there was even a thread.
*Off Topic*
Anyone been following the Six Nations? Was looking forward to England being whipped but unfortunately the frogs couldn't quite do it.
