Wise Old Dude.................
An old, white haired man walked into a jewelry store
one Friday evening with a beautiful young lady at his
side. He told the jeweller he was looking for a
special ring for his girlfriend.
At that statement, the jeweller went to his special
stock and brought a 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 cheque 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 teed-off 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?"
