Geordie billing
When a group of people (friends/family colleagues) are dining at a restaurant, the bill will be shared equally regardless of who orders what in terms food and drink.
In this situation, those who order recklessly are in a much better position at the end of the meal than those who do so frugally. Diners who argue that they ate/drank less therefore should pay less are often ridiculed as spendthrifts and must accept their fate as victims of Geordie billing.
This term stems from Newcastle and Tyneside area, whose residents are notorious for their reckless abandon when it comes to eating and drinking.

Geordie
A 'Geordie' is a person from Newcastle, UK. They have been named the nicest in Britain. Famous people such as Cheryl Cole and Joe McElderry are Geordies. Not all people from Newcastle have strong accents, there is a stereotype of Geordies that they are rough, common slobs who nest in council houses and suckle on 'Newcastle Brown Ale' and 'Guiness' all day. This should be ignored, as only the small minority of people from Newcastle are like this, people are like that everywhere, not just in the North East. People are generally well educated, and Gosforth High School is one of the best schools in the North and East.
geordie
A person who is originally from Newcastle, a city in the North East of England, but who also lives anywhere within the Tyneside area. They are known for their very distinctive accent, being die-hard Newcastle United fans and for their ability to consume vast quantities of alcohol. They also known for being quite friendly, approachable and charitable. They are absolutely not to be confused with "Chavs", but this happens frequently as a result of false stereotypes concocted by prejudiced Southerners. According to anyone south of Manchester, Geordies are poorly educated Neanderthals with a severe speech disorder who lives off benefits, gets drunk all day at the tax payers expense, have foul mannerisms, lives only for football and can be found in council flats - which describes Chavs perfectly, but not Geordies (unless they are Geordie Chavs).
Geordies are also known for their mastery in manual labour (i.e. construction, steel and ship building) or engineering. Newcastle was once devoted to ship building and various areas in Tyneside were known for heavy manufacturing and mining. Various world class colleges, universities and cultural venues exist in the Tyneside area today, drawing much tourism and revenue from education. Newcastle University is one of the UK's most highly ranked universities for medicine, mechanic and civil engineering and naval architecture. Geordies like Cheryl Coal, Bobby Robson and Mike Ashley stand as cultural icons.
