What Can Happen

I’ve got to tell this story, defiantly a first.

Date 03.06.09.  Place Cornerstones bed and breakfast manchester. The names of the people have been change to protect the innocent.

This particular week we’re fully booked with a group of people over from America, they’ve taken the whole place except for one room which is booked out to a Ms Ann Lewis.

So it’s around 8pm and we get a telephone call from a very well spoken lady, Royal Berkshire, just to give you some idea of the tone.

“Hello I’m phoning on behalf of my sister who’s staying with you tonight, I’m afraid she’s been some what delayed on account of her dreadful aeroplane, but she will be with you around 10.30 to 11pm, is that ok?”.

The supper efficient business mind kicks in, right, yes, I know, it must be Ms Ann Lewis shes talking about.

“No problem thanks for letting us know, how ever if it’s going to be any later can you phone and let me know”

“O yes, we certainly will”

Like a Murder  Mystery Weekend with out the Murder

About half an hour later I see this young lady, about mid twenties, walking past our office window towards the front door. Now who can this be, we’ve only got one room and it’s booked out. I opened the front door and she smiled and step in with the confidence of some one who knows there in the right place.

“Ann Lewis I have a room booked”

Ann Lewis, Ann, Lewis, the cogs stat moving, she can’t be Ann Lewis she’s delayed.

“Ok if you’d like to sign in”

What’s your problem, you have a room booked for Ms Ann Lewis this is Ms Ann Lewis, give her the key.

I asked what time she would like breakfast, 7.30, ok, and off she went to her room.

Now go and check the signing in book just to confirm it is Ms Ann Lewis, yep.

The woman who called must have got it wrong.
