The round-dodgers
SCROOGE drinkers will use a host of underhand tactics to dodge getting the beers in over Christmas, research reveals.
From slinking off to the loo or popping outside for a cigarette, more than half admit to doing pretty much anything to avoid standing their round.
The round-dodgers are at it all year round but their sneakiness reaches new heights over the festive period

Re: The round-dodgers
Wait a little while and when it comes to your round there will atleast be some people who have had enough and don't want another one. Makes it cheaper.

Re: The round-dodgers
The easiest way to avoid having a round dodger in the group, is for the whole group to put an agreed equal amount of money into a kitty. That's what we used to do.

Re: The round-dodgers
I spy an attempt at free publicity here ... I wonder who fed that press release to the Express.

Re: The round-dodgers
I started 100% round-dodging when the smoking ban came in... I just don't go to pubs any more.
