Loading ...Mary Poppins was traveling home, but due to inclement weather she decided to top at a nice hotel for the night. She approached the front desk and requested a room.
“Certainly, Madam”, the clerk replied.
“Is the coffee shop still open?” she asked.
“No, Madam, I’m sorry,” he replied, “but room service is available all night. Would you care to select dinner from this menu?”
Mary graciously scanned the menu. “Yes, I think the cauliflower with cheese would be fine, and may I order breakfast in my room as well?”
“Of course, Madam, what would you like?”
“A couple of poached eggs would do”, smiled Mary, who signed the register and retired to her room.
In the morning, as Mary was checking out, the night clerk was still on duty. “Good morning, Miss Poppins, I trust you slept well”, he smiled.
“Yes, thank you, very well.”
“And the food?” he asked.
“The cauliflower was absolutely delicious, but the eggs… I must tell you they were cold and very overcooked. Inedible, actually.”
“I am so sorry, Madam” replied the clerk. “If you would care to fill out a comment card for the management, I can offer you a voucher for a free meal on your next visit.”
“Thank you, I shall,” responded Mary. She completed the card and checked out. Curious, the clerk looked at the comment card to see what Mary had written.
“Supercauliflowercheesebuteggswerequiteatrocious!”
