TABLE FOR FOUR !!

This tickled me yesterday:-

l rang my dad who lives in Spain to see how he is; whilst on the phone l asked if he'd seen anything of my older brother Tony lately (he lives in Spain too) he proceeded to tell me the following story:
My dad and his wife, Sylvia, had booked a table to have dinner at a resturant with some friends that were over visiting. On arriving at the resturant they told the waiter they had booked and the waiter looked rather confused when they said it's in the name of "Rush" the waiters then looked even more puzzled because they had already filled the reserved table that had been booked, bear in mind all of this confusion is happening in broken english and spanish.At this point being hungry they were becoming a little annoyed at the fact that they had taken the trouble of booking and the table hadn't been saved anyway - they managed to fit them in and find an empty table alongside the other group of four that had taken the reserved table !! It turned out to be my brother and his partner and two friends, apparently Tony had entered the resturant ahead of his partner and when asked if he had booked he said "oh l don't know have you got a booking for four in the name of 'Rush' when they said yes you've booked he didn't question it as he thought his partner must have booked the table earlier that day!! What a coincidence the same resturant, same day, same name!!!
