School Reunion

I am no longer allowed to arrange the school reunions. 

I was the first to arrive at the local pub where we meet and had booked a table earlier, optimistically for twelve people.

Imagine my dismay on finding that they had laid the table thinking we were going to eat – I only wanted a table; to make matters worse only four of us turned up.  Extra staff had been brought in, the chef was waiting in anticipation …………. another venue to avoid for a while.
