The Hotel Bill
> An elderly lady decided to give herself a big treat for her significant
> birthday by staying overnight in one of London's most expensive hotels.
> When she checked out next morning, the desk clerk handed her a bill for
> £250.00.
> She exploded and demanded to know why the charge was so high. "It's a
> nice hotel but the rooms certainly aren't worth £250.00 for just an
> overnight stop without even breakfast."
> The clerk told her that £250.00 is the 'standard rate' so she insisted
> on speaking to the Manager.
> The Manager appeared and forewarned by the desk clerk announced: "the
> hotel has an Olympic-sized pool and a huge conference centre which are
> available for use."
> 'But I didn't use them," she said.
> ''Well, they are here, and you could have," explained the Manager.
> He went on to explain that she could also have seen one of the in-hotel
> shows for which the hotel is famous. "We have the best entertainers
> from Edinburgh, Glasgow, and Aberdeen performing here," the Manager
> said.
> "But I didn't go to any of those shows," she said.
> "Well, we have them, and you could have," the Manager replied.
> No matter what amenity the Manager mentioned, she replied, "But I
> didn't use it!"
> The Manager was unmoved, so she decided to pay, wrote a cheque and gave
> it to the Manager.
> The Manager was surprised when he looked at the cheque. "But madam,
> this cheque is only made out for £50.00." ''That's correct. I charged
> you £200.00 for sleeping with me," she replied.
> "But I didn't!" exclaims the very surprised Manager.
> "Well, too bad, I was here, and you could have."
> Don't mess with Senior Citizens
