ronttuk Posted June 24, 2006 Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 An elderly gentleman walked into a jewellery store one Friday evening with a beautiful young girl at his side. He told the jeweller he was looking for a special ring for his girlfriend. The jeweller looked through his stock and brought out a $5,000 ring and showed it to him. The old man said, "I don't think you understand, I want something very special." At that statement, the jeweller went to his special stock and brought another ring over. "Here's a stunning ring at only $40,000", the jeweller said. The young lady's eyes sparkled and her whole body trembled with excitement. The old man seeing this said, "We'll take it." The jeweller asked how payment would be made and the old man stated, by cheque. "I know you need to make sure my check is good, so I'll write it now and you can call the bank Monday to verify the funds and I'll pick the ring up Monday afternoon," he said. Monday morning, a very annoyed jeweller phoned the old man. "There's no money in that account." "I know", said the old man, "but can you imagine the weekend I had?" Don't mess with Old People!

old rooster Posted June 24, 2006 Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 Damn it, I had hoped the jeweller wouldn't have mentioned that, mind you he did say he'd get his own back on me one way or another and he did seem a vindictive old ***. The girlfriend wasn't too impressed on Monday but it was one hell of a weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
