Yo chahi Saturday afternoon ko lagi hai..or whenver you read it :) THERE was a rather old-fashioned lady, always quite delicate and >>elegant, especially in language. She and he husband were planning a >>week's vacation in Florida, so she wrote to a campground and asked for >>a reservation. She wanted to make sure the campground was fully >equipped, >>but didn't know how to ask about the toilet facilities. She just >>could not bring herself to write the word "toilet" in her letter. >> After much deliberation, she finally came up with the term >>"bathroom commode". But after writing that down, she still thought >>she was being too forward, so she rewrote the entire letter and >>referred to the "bathroom commode" merely as the "BC". "Does the >>campground have its own BC?" is what she actually wrote. >> >>Well, the gampground owner wasn't old-fashioned at all and when >>he got the letter, he just couldn't figure what the woman was >>talking about. That "BC" business really stumped him. He showed >>the letter to several couples, but they couldn't imagine what the >>lady meant either. So the campground owner finally came to the >>conclusion that the lady must be asking about the location of >>the nearest Baptist Church, sat down and wrote the following reply: >> >> >>DEAR MADAM, >> >>I regret the delay in answering your letter, but I now take the >>pleasure of informing you that a BC is located 9 miles north of >>the campground and is capable of seating 250 people at one time. >>It is located in a beautiful pine grove and is open only on Sundays >>and Wednesdays. I admit it is quite a distance away if you are in >>the habit of going regularly, but no doubt you will be pleased to know >>that many people take their lunch along and make a day of it. >>They usually arrive early and stay late. >> >>My daughter met her husband in the BC. Sometimes it is so crowded >>there are five to a seat. It may interest you to know that right now >>there is a supper planned to raise money to buy more seats. They are >>going to hold it in the basement of the BC. It pains me very much not >> to be able to go more regularly, but it is surely not due to a lack >>of desire on my part. As we grow older, it seems to be more of an >effort, particularly in cold weather. If you decide to come to our >campground, >>perhaps I could go with you the first time you go and sit with you >>and introduce you to all the other folks. We will be sure to get >>a seat up front where you can be seen by everyone. Remember, we are >>a friendly community. >>Sincerely, the Campground Owner.
