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 center 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 check and gave it
to the Manager.

The Manager was surprised when he looked at the check.  "But madam, this
check 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

Nice one.

I don't mean to be picky but...

Why was she charged in dollars in a London hotel?

and $250 would be about the cost of one of London's cheaper hotels!

plus Aberdeen, Glasgow and Edinburgh entertainers? Really? People would pay money to see that?!

Please do better next time, Jack!
