A funny thing happened to me the other day. I went for lunch at my favourite beach restaurant in Ibiza and someone had taken my reservation pretending to be me!
The owner was not at his usual post and the blaggers managed to fool his understudy. Despite the mild annoyance at the time, my sense of humour returned when I was relocated and I almost felt like taking them a bottle over later and giving them a hand slap for the cheek of it! Go on my son!
