Expensive Mistakescoopsweb asks "What's the most expensive mistake you've ever made? Should I mention a certain employee who caused 4 hours worth of delays in Central London and got his company fined £500k?"
No points for stories about the time you had a few and thought it'd be a good idea to wrap your car around a bollard. Or replies consisting of "my wife".

MOOOOOooo!There is (was) a chain of butchers in the North-West called Dewhursts. In the late 80's they spent tens of thousands (probably) on a radio / newspaper advertising campaign. They came up with a witty catchy slogan.
Alas, the weekend the campaign was launched was the same weekend the BSE Mad cow diesease story broke in the worlds media.
And the catchy slogan?? What else?
"GO MAD THIS WEEKEND, BUY SOME BEEF"

that might explainwhy most of the Dewhursts down south have disappeared...they were national but don't know if they shut down everywhere.
