Laurence Wilson Posted October 30, 2002 Share Posted October 30, 2002 The following letters are taken from an actual incident between a London hotel and one of its guests last year. The hotel ended up submitting the letters to the Sunday Times. Dear Maid, Please do not leave any more of those little bars of soap in my bathroom since I have brought my own bath-sized Imperial Leather. Please remove the six unopened little bars from the shelf under the medicine chest and another three in the shower soap dish. They are in my way. Thank you, S. Berman ------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Room 635, I am not your regular maid. She will be back tomorrow, Thursday, from her day off. I took the 3 hotel soaps out of the shower soap dish as you requested. The 6 bars on your shelf I took out of your way and put on top of your Kleenex dispenser in case you should change your mind. This leaves only the 3 bars I left today which my instructions from the management are to leave 3 soaps daily. I hope this is satisfactory. Kathy, Relief Maid ----------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Maid I hope you are my regular maid. Apparently Kathy did not tell you about my note to her concerning the little bars of soap. When I got back to my room this evening, I found you had added 3 little Camays to the shelf under my medicine cabinet. I am going to be here in the hotel for two weeks and have brought my own bath-size Imperial Leather, so I won't need those 6 little Camays, which are on the shelf. They are in the way when shaving, brushing teeth etc. Please remove them. S. Berman ----------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Mr Berman, The assistant manager, Mr Kensedder, informed me this morning that you called him last evening and said you were unhappy with your maid service. I have assigned a new girl to your room. I hope you will accept my apologies for any past inconvenience. If you have any future complaints, please contact me so I can give it my personal attention. Call extension 1108 between 8AM and 5PM. Thank you. Elaine Carmen Housekeeper ----------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Miss Carmen, It is impossible to contact you by phone since I leave the hotel for business at 7:45 AM and don't get back before 5:30 or 6.00 PM. That's the reason I called Mr Kensedder last night. You were already off duty. I only asked Mr Kensedder if he could do anything about those little bars of soap. The new maid you assigned me must have thought I was a new check in today, since she left other 3 bars of hotel soap in my medicine cabinet, along with her regular delivery of 3 bars on the bathroom shelf. In just 5 days here I have accumulated 24 little bars of soap. Why are you doing this to me? S. Berman ----------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Mr Berman, Your maid, Kathy, has been instructed to stop delivering soap to your room and to remove the extra soaps. If I can be of further assistance, please call extension 1108 between 8 AM and 5 PM. Thank you, Elaine Carmen, Housekeeper ----------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Mr Kensedder, My bath-size Imperial Leather is missing. Every bar of soap was taken from my room, including my own bath-size Imperial Leather. I came in late last night and had to call the bellhop to bring me 4 little Cashmere Bouquets. S. Berman --------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Mr Berman, I have informed our housekeeper, Elaine Carmen, of your soap problem. I cannot understand why there was no soap in your room since our maids are instructed to leave 3 bars of soap each time they service a room. The situation will be rectified immediately. Please accept my apologies for the inconvenience. Martin L. Kensedder Assistant Manager --------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Mrs Carmen, Who the hell left 54 little bars of Camay in my room? I came in last night and found 54 little bars of soap. I don't want 54 little bars of Camay. I want my one damn bar of bath-size Imperial Leather. Do you realise I have 54 bars of soap in here? All I want is my bath-size Imperial Leather. Please give me back my bath-size Imperial Leather. S. Berman --------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Mr Berman, You complained of too much soap in your room, so I had them removed. Then you complained to Mr Kensedder that all your soap was missing, so I personally returned them. The 24 Camays which had been taken and the 3 Camays you are supposed to receive daily. I don't know anything about the 4 Cashmere Bouquets. Obviously your maid, Kathy, did not know I had returned your soaps, so she also brought 24 Camays plus the 3 daily Camays. I don't know where you got the idea this hotel issues bath-size Imperial Leather. I was able to locate some bath-size Ivory which I left in your room. Elaine Carmen Housekeeper ------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Mrs Carmen, Just a short note to bring you up-to-date on my latest soap inventory. As of today I possess: * On the shelf under the medicine cabinet -18 Camay in 4 stacks of 4 and 1 stack of 2. * On the Kleenex dispenser - 11 Camay in 2 stacks of 4 and 1 stack of 3. * On the bedroom dresser - 1 stack of 3 Cashmere Bouquet, 1 stack of 4 hotel-size Ivory, and 8 Camay in 2 stacks of 4. * Inside the medicine cabinet - 14 Camay in 3 stacks of 4 and 1 stack of 2. * In the shower soap dish - 6 Camay, very moist. * On the northeast corner of the tub - 1 Cashmere Bouquet, slightly used. * On the northwest corner of the tub - 6 Camays in 2 stacks of 3. Please ask Kathy when she services my room to make sure the stacks are neatly piled and dusted. Also, please advise her that stacks of more than 4 have a tendency to tip. May I suggest that my bedroom window sill is not in use and will make an excellent spot for future soap deliveries. One more item, I have purchased another bar of bath-size Imperial Leather, which I am keeping in the hotel vault in order to avoid further misunderstandings. S. Berman ------------------------------------------------------------- I bet you've seen it before - but you said you were bored 😬.

Laurence Wilson Posted October 30, 2002 Share Posted October 30, 2002 OK ... erm ... ah 😬! ------------------------------------------------------------- Ethel was a bit of a demon in her wheelchair, and loved to charge around the nursing home, taking corners on one wheel and getting up to maximum speed on the long corridors. Because the poor woman was one sandwich short of a picnic, the other residents tolerated her, and some of the males actually joined in. One day, Ethel was speeding up one corridor when a door opened and Kooky Clarence stepped out with his arm outstretched. "STOP!", he said in a firm voice. "Have you got a license for that thing?" Ethel fished around in her handbag and pulled out a Kit Kat wrapper and held it up to him. "OK" he said, and away Ethel sped down the hall. As she took the corner near the TV lounge on one wheel, Weird Harold popped out in front of her and shouted, "STOP! Have you got proof of insurance?" Ethel dug into her handbag, pulled out a beer coaster and held it up to him. Harold nodded and said, "Carry on, ma'am." As Ethel neared the final corridor before the front door, Craggy Craig stepped out in front of her, stark naked, holding a very sizable erection in his hand. Oh, God," said Ethel, "not the breathalyser again!" Peardrop Edited by - Peardrop on 30 Oct 2002 21:03:03 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laurence Wilson Posted October 30, 2002 Share Posted October 30, 2002 Hmmm ... while - IMHO - I believe the thread has gone past it's use by date it can not be denied that others (including yourself) are still using it. It's obvious what the thread is which consequntly makes it easy to skip. If people don't like it they should leave well alone. Unfortunately it is also apparent that for some the thread is slowing the site down (although I've not noticed this). That is why I proposed this suggestion to Barry. But this is not chit chat and I am getting dangerously serious. 😬 😬 😬 😬 😬 😬 😬 Peardrop Edited by - Peardrop on 30 Oct 2002 22:49:06 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hibster. Posted October 30, 2002 Share Posted October 30, 2002 That's the one, perhaps he is F1 champion in which case I forgive him otherwise he's an UFT If there's beer, we'll drink it. If not, we'll wait. 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurence Wilson Posted October 30, 2002 Share Posted October 30, 2002 I don't see what part of being F1 world champion means he can't simply tap the return key . Peardrop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hibster. Posted October 30, 2002 Share Posted October 30, 2002 Mr Peardrop Are YOU becoming an GOG or somesuch ? A thread such as "word association" or "countdown to curborough" may well slow down BC but only by weight of popularity, I do hope that you are not throwing you slim weight behind the idea that each thread on BC should be a previously un-asked question and a single definative answer. Q: What tyres are best A: ACB10 q: What sort of screen should I have A: Aero Q: Should I have a heater A: No Q: Should I drive my car, except on 6 weekends a year N: No Your dark alley or mine, sweety ???? 😬 😬 😬 😳 Edited cos it was OTT Edited by - paul davis on 31 Oct 2002 09:17:02 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scooby dooby doo Posted October 30, 2002 Share Posted October 30, 2002 i'm not interested in the word assoc thread either. but i know what it is and its easy to ignore, a lot of people seem to like it so it has as much right as any other to exist in chitchat. I don't like Michael telling everybody to stop though. A quick glance through the last few pages reveals the "toys, pram, throw, out, of" comment to be most apt.... now, can we all make up and go and eat sossiges 🤔 😬 HOOPY Membership Number 4136 R706KGU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
