An Unlikely Vacation...
A travel agent looked up from his desk to see an older lady and an older
gentleman peering in the shop window at the posters showing the glamorous
destinations around the world. The agent had had a very good week and the
dejected couple looking in the window gave him a rare feeling of generosity.
He called them into his shop and said, "I know that on your pension you
could never hope to have a holiday, so I am sending you off to a fabulous
resort at my expense, and I won't take no for an answer."
He took them inside and asked his secretary to write two flight tickets and
book a room in a five star hotel. They, as can be expected, gladly accepted,
and were on their way.
About a month later the little lady came in to his shop.
"And how did you like your holiday?" he asked eagerly.
"The flight was exciting and the room was lovely," she said. "I've come to
thank you. But, one thing puzzled me. Who was that old guy I had to share
the room with?"
