what can you put in a box to make it lighter, that can be seen with the naked eye?
its not a light....
its not a light....
Tree guys go into a hotel and get a room for the night. The cost of the room is £30 so they pay £10 each.
When they have gone to the room the hotel receptionist discovered he has overcharged the gentlemen. The room should have been £25 so he calls the concierge and gives him £5 to deliver to the room.
On the way to the room the Concierge decides to pocket £2 and return £1 to each of the gentlemen.
So lets do the maths.......
The gentlemen paid £10 each....... 3 * £10 = £30
The concierge returned £1 to each of them, so....... 3 * £9 = £27
And the Concierge pocketed £2
£27 + £2 = £29
Where did the remaining £1 go ?
