Mary Poppins was travelling home but, due to worsening weather, she decided to stop at a hotel for the night. She approached the receptionist and asked for a room for the night. 'Certainly madam', he replied courteously. 'Is the restaurant open still?' Mary enquired. 'Sorry, no,' came the reply, 'but room service is available all night. Would you care to select something from this menu?' Mary smiled and took the menu and looked at it. 'Hmm, I would like cauliflower cheese please,' said Mary. 'Certainly madam,' he replied. 'And can I have breakfast in bed?' asked Mary politely. The receptionist nodded and smiled. 'In that case, I would love a couple of poached eggs please,' Mary said. She then signed in and went to her room. The night passed, and next morning Mary arrived at Reception early to check out. The same guy was behind the desk. 'Good morning madam...sleep well?' he said. 'Yes, thank you,' Mary replied. 'Food to your liking?' he asked. 'Well, I have to say the cauliflower cheese was exceptional, I don't think I have had better. Shame about the eggs though. They really weren't nice at all,' replied Mary truthfully. 'Oh...well, perhaps you could contribute these thoughts to our Guest Comments Book. We are always looking to improve our service and would value your opinion,' said the Receptionist. 'OK, I will...thanks!' replied Mary....who checked out, then scribbled a comment into the book. Waving, she left to continue her journey. Curious, the receptionist picked up the book to see the comment Mary had written - 'Supercauliflowercheesebuteggswerequiteatrocious!' CB >|< |

CB Thanks - just read it to hubby and he's laughing too. He says it reminds him of the onward crisp bin solderers joke. Something about a biscuit tin factory going on strike. Unfortunately can't remember it properly. Chrissie x |

Chrissie, I remember hearing that crisp bin solderers one years ago, but I can't remember how it goes either. Probably just as well, I think! Bendy, I think 'diving' to new depths, rather than 'plumbing'! LoL CB >|< |
