Was there any big fat people who thought it was a all you can eat buffet.

Can only fat people eat a lot? Being a troll I bet you can get through a fair bit too.

A funeral is food wise a light snack situation, it's not a wedding or any other feast. It's a cup of tea and a sandwich and a biscuit more or less and go. They were there to remember the deceased not to gorge. There was plenty on offer to share...given the food supplied some people took more for whatever reason and the food ran out is how I read it.

Unfortunately it was very difficult to do in the time scale we had

How long does it take to have a conversation as follows:

OP: "Can you put on a finger buffet for a 100 for a funeral wake?"

Golf Club: "Yes certainly that'll come to £1,250.00 inclusive"

OP: "What exactly will be served as part of that?"

Golf Club: "100 mini sausage rolls, samosas, 50 rounds of sandwiches etc"

OP: "Oh dear, that's not a lot for £1,250.00, I'll think I'll go somewhere else."

How much was wasted, people hear the word free and often take far more than they can eat, hence why someone serving often works best and tell any fatties to come back for seconds if there is any spare food left over.

Seen it with my own eyes, like a stampede they load up plates, some more than one plate, eat a quarter of it and leave the rest, well its free !

How many people are thinking straight when they are grieving?


Perhaps they have no experience of catering for such a large number and put their trust in the experience of the caterers.

Don't confuse enthusiasm for trolling

You're not exactly an old-hand here either!
