Mary Poppins was travelling home one evening, but due to worsening weather, she decided to stop at a hotel. She approached the receptionist and asked for a room for the night.
“Certainly madam”, he replied courteously.
“Is the restaurant open still?” inquired Mary.
“Sorry, no,” came the reply, “but room service is available all night. Would you care to select something from the menu?”
Mary smiled and took the menu and perused it. “Hmm, I would like cauliflower cheese please,” said Mary.
“Certainly madam,” he replied.
“And can I have breakfast in bed?” asked Mary politely.
The receptionist nodded and smiled. “In that case, I would love a couple of poached eggs please,” Mary mused.
After confirming the order, Mary signed in and went up to her room for the night. The night passed uneventfully and next morning Mary came down early to check out.
The same guy was still on the desk. “Morning madam…sleep well?” “Yes, thank you,” Mary replied. “Food to your liking?”
“Well, I have to say the cauliflower cheese was exceptional, Shame about the eggs tho….they really weren’t nice at all,” replied Mary.
“Oh…well, perhaps you could contribute these thoughts to our Guest Comments Book. We are always looking to improve our service and would value your opinion,” said the receptionist.
“Ok I will…thanks!” replied Mary….who then checked out, paused awhile, then scribbled a comment into the book. , and then left to continue her journey home. Curious, the receptionist picked up the book to read her comment “Supercauliflowercheesebuteggswerequiteatrocious!”
