Don't mess with Senior Citizens

An elderly lady decided to give herself a big treat for her birthday. She stayed overnight in one of London's most expensive hotels When she was checking out the next morning, the desk clerk handed her a bill for $ 250. 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 for just  an overnight stop without even breakfast." The clerk told her that this was 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. " We have the best entertainers from Edinburgh, Glasgow and Aberdeen performing here," said the manager.  " 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 the Manager mentioned, she replied,"But I didn't use it!" The Manager was unmoved, so she decided to pay, she wrote a cheque and gave it to the Manager. He was surprised when he looked at the cheque . "But madam, it's only for $ 50." "That's correct. I charged you $ 200 for sleeping with me," she replied. " But I didn't!" exclaimed the surprised Manager. " Well, too bad, I was here, and you could have."
