George left his shoes outside his hotel room for the overnight polishing service.
In the morning, they looked wonderful.
He checked inside each shoe, then went to reception with a complaint.
The receptionist asked whether the shoes belonged to him….
The hotel offered an overnight shoe-polishing service.
George had never used one before. He placed his brown shoes outside the door and went to bed.
In the morning, the leather shone.
George inspected the heels, the laces and the soles.
Then he went to reception.
They look wonderful, he said. But something’s missing.
The receptionist asked whether they’d returned the right pair.
Definitely.
Were the laces damaged?
No.
The receptionist offered to fetch the porter.
George reached into his pocket.
I’d prefer whoever does the mattresses. There were two little chocolates in those. I’ve checked both shoes.
