Can We Go Home Please?
Can We Go Home Please?
It was quite late.
The restaurant clock showed 1.30 a.m. The waiters were feeling rather tired and
were beginning to yawn. There was one fairly middle-aged couple left. They had
clearly had rather a good meal. Now they were looking at each other across the
table and were quite unaware of the world around them. The waiters wanted to go
home. One of them asked the couple if they wanted any more to eat or drink. He
didn’t get an answer. It clearly wasn’t any/much use asking questions! One of
the waiters had rather a good idea. He began stacking chairs upside-down onto
the tables. The others joined in. Another waiter turned off the lights. In the
end, the restaurant was quite dim. The chairs were stacked on the tables around
the couple who just sat and sat and sat!
