At train station toilets, always push the turnstile first before slotting your 30p in. Most times the gate is open. Pee for free my friends...

When negotiating, list your weaker grievances first, so they'll make quick concessions at no cost to your position.

When they think they've conceded all they need to, start to hit them with the big stuff, one at a time, getting a concession each time.

Spoken like a true Scotsman...

Actually ,on the turnstile tip

If you pull most turnstiles toward you a little first, then push it forward, they let you through.

Victoria Station is my fav fee-pee

Lighter fuel is a good cleaning agent for things like old photos, cds, dvds etc

When negotiating for a big ticket item like a car etc. after the initial to-ing and fro-ing about price, say what you want to pay and then offer your hand to the salesperson. They will automatically take it and shake. Done deal.

When buying a round of drinks (its never that large with me RD!) always order the Guiness first. By the time the rest has been poured your Guiness will be perfect and ready for collection and or drinking.

Or if you want to annoy an Irish barman, order the Guinness last.

When a bus ends its jorney early ask for a transfer ticket from the driver. Dont swipe in on the next bus you get.

While on a vacation to a new destination, and trying out a new resturant, dont go for difficult-to-pronounce-unknown-exotic-sounding dishes unless recommended so!

No-life tip:

Your flight has a bus transfer to the plane for boarding: bathe in the knowledge that the last person on the first bus will be first up the plane steps.

So if getting on the plane first is important to you, position yourself about a bus-worth of people back from the front of the boarding queue/scrum.

Letting go is not getting rid of, letting go is letting be...

If you're ever caught in heavy rain without an umbrella just walk into any pub and confidently say you left your umbrella there a while back. When they ask what it looks like just say "black" and take your pick from whatever they drag out. Not theft, more creative recycling...

Umbrellas are left behind as often as phone chargers in hotels - every front desk has a box of Blackberry, iphone and Nokia chargers to hand looking for a new home if you get stuck.

I went to Spec-savers because they had a very attractive promotion 2 for 1 on everything I think. Anyway had the eye test picked the glasses then came the bill they billed me for two sets of glasses. Apparently the promotion was only in "SELECTED STORES". Half hour wasted went back to my original Optician.

Generally on Virgin Trains the unreserved carriage is E. Sit here even if you have a reservation. Most folks now book on line and automatically get a reservation. People being people will insist on sitting in their reserved seat even if the rest of the carriage is empty, and usually for me it's a portly businessman who insists on cramming his carcass next to me.

Not for me, I'm in E stretching out and laughing at them!

[Jah Lush]

Always have a piss just before you leave the pub. You don't want to get caught short on the way home.

For those of you employed by a large company, make sure you do your pees and poos on company time. So much more satisfying knowing you're being paid to take a dump.

Dont forget to Smoke your Fags In work time also.
