or in the U.K. James had a piece of mail yesterday from Pizza Express. It's about Father's Day and it just made me laugh. (We had a similar one about Mother's Day but it involved an ice cream sundae.)

Dear Junior Club Member
The clock is ticking and Father's Day on Sunday 17th June will be with us very soon. It is always so hard to surprise Dads but one sure way that works every time is with food (especially pizza!) and drink. So don't worry, I've got a great gift idea for you to show just how special he is. Colour and cut out the Fathers Day Gift Tag before and add a heard warming message. Then, bring the Gift Tag to your favourite PizzaExpress restaurant along with your Junior Membership Card and pass it to the serve who will place your tag around a FREE bottle of beer for your Dad to celebrate his big day!
On Father's Day there's also the chance to win a pair of tickets to see the musical Peter Pan and other great prizes!
Bye for now

At the bottom of the paper there is what appears to be a "Do Not Disturb Sign" which you'd hang around a doorknob. Except that it has a picture of the two kids' club cartoon kids on it, says "To Dad" with several lines where you can write a message and then there's "Love from" and a blank space to sign your name. Obviously the sign goes around the beer which your server then brings to your dad! Something about this just makes me laugh...
