    For Suity

    BBC News - Tables for one - the rise of solo dining

    Not too long ago solo dining was synonymous with a greasy takeaway scoffed down in the car, or room service consumed in the sterile anonymity of your hotel room.

    This was preferable to the thought of dining alone in a proper restaurant, and the associated stigma of being seen as a "friendless loser".

    Some of that sense of unease surrounding booking a table for one no doubt dates back to our childhoods, when sitting alone in the high school cafeteria was paramount to social suicide.

    Yet today, a growing number of us live alone - including one out of every seven adults in the US - so the stigma surrounding solo dining has started to dissipate, says Aaron Allen, a Florida-based global restaurant consultant.

    for goodness sake will someone meet Suity and buy him a plate of scouse?
    Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

    I met him and bought him a burger and chips. I've done my duty.

        He smeared his own mayonnaise on them, then he asked if they had brown sauce but he had to make do with ketchup.
