So really it’s the volume . So as long as you talk on your phone quietly it’s ok.

Only if you talk quietly…outside.

How about put your fucking phone in your pocket and enjoy your meal. It’s blatantly rude to the person you’re eating with and to every other person who has to listen to you. Mobile phones are a privilege, not a right. I expect to say things like that to my children, not to adults.

On the plane this happens a lot too now.
Yep, I had a guy next to me a year or so ago watching something on his speakerphone for almost the whole flight. When we landed at Heathrow, he asked if he could borrow my phone to call his taxi driver, because his phone had run out of battery. I'm afraid I declined.

Builders finishing work on my house today. Got a text from him last night saying that he would appreciate 2k over the fixed price quote of 25000 for losses he has incurred on the job due to things going wrong, which we've already paid 2.5k extra for. He has explained that he hasn't been able to pay himself a wage for part of the job. My partner and I are cleaning toward no but it's a tough one.

Told him that we had agreed the fixed quote and already paid extra and couldn't afford any more. He was upset, but we managed to end it on ok terms. There was some argument and difficulty, so I am pleased it is over.

That’s good news and I’m glad you held your ground. The only way I would have paid is if:
1). My indecisiveness put the project on hold for a period of time
2). I changed the specs of the project which altered the scope of work.Now, I’m really interested in seeing how @Giles text went for the boat…

TBF, if that were to happen, you'd want to specify the changes and their impact to the charges in an amendment or else you're effectively giving the person carte blanche to charge whatever they want.
