  • Talk's Mike Graham reacts to a couple who committed serial “dine and dash” offences - racking up large bills for food and drink before leaving without paying.
    Bernard McDonagh and Ann McDonagh appeared before Swansea Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday, where they pleaded guilty to five joint charges of fraud.
    Charges detail how the pair dishonestly obtained food and drink for themselves and their family at four restaurants and one takeaway in the south Wales area, with the unpaid bills totalling £1,168.10.
    It was alleged that the couple ate and drank at the eateries “having no intention of paying for” what they ordered.
    Mike says "Something else is going on here"

    Give people a menu and say hi, then say when you are ready go up to the counter order and pay, that’s what I would do. If you go in a pub you go up to the bar to order for food. That’s the way to go with the society today and a true abiding person wouldn’t mind doing this.

    Why do restaurants not have a system where you pay when you order your meal?
