Puts me in mind of a course I was sent on at work. Simon from Motherwell and myself went down to Doncaster for a course about downloading and interpreting the info from the data recorders being fitted to the locomotives.

First night we went down to dinner, I had the mixed grill, Simon had fish. The mixed grill had obviously been sitting dehydrating on a hotplate for a while, I asked Simon about the fish, his response was that there was a box with "Ross Frozen Foods" on it in the bin . . . . we were there for three days Luckily our Regional Manager and HR Manager were staying there as well and they were equally unimpressed by the catering. For the rest of the stay we dined in restaurants in Doncaster on their expense accounts.
