Revenge story

Veronica telephoned me a few years ago to tell me she had visited a pub on the Yorkshire Moors, it was being looked after by the landlord’s ex girlfriend.

Nothing unusual about that except when you entered the premises the tall blonde Australian lady informed you that you paid what you wished for the food and drink.  In fact she said if you thought the food etc was not worth what you paid you could take your money out of the till on the way out. 

I asked her if she had been drinking and she assured me she had only drunk an orange juice.

I found Albert and we went out on a mission to the Moors, we were greeted by the ex girlfriend as Veronica said we would,  there was a huge table laid out with fancy breads, joints of meats, salads, puddings it was inviting.  There was a hand written sign telling clients that it was up to them to pay or not, the only condition was that you washed up after you had eaten.

The pub was very full and we had to wait for a table to become available.

Would you be surprised to hear that the landlord returned after a two week break to a pub with no stock, he must have been real mean to his ex girlfriend.
