    if a client take you out for the night...

    ..do you charge over time for it?

    ..or put it down to good relations....and just just the free food and wine tasting?

    Well you looked so stylish I thought you batted for the other camp - thats like the ultimate compliment!

    I couldn't imagine you ever having a hair out of place!

        Tight get!!! Unless it's work related, down as many beers as you can. If it is a 'business meeting', then charge for your time.

        The beauty with this is, if it's the first option, you'll probably end up sh@gging the Welsh munter anyway...

                  If the client has invited you to attend a night out I would view it as taking the pi$$ to try and charge for it. I would however drink my body weight in G+Ts though.
