Charming story and shows why we all needed those branch names!

After loading up a duffle bag full, we left the B+B and went into town. I carried the bag into the laundry where a young lady was sorting clothes. She asked if she could help me. She assured me that I had come to the right place. "Name?" she asked. "Sullivan." was my reply. "That alone won't do. Do you know how many Sullivans there are here?" I responded, "Mark Sullivan." And her, " We have a few of them also." Going a little further I gave her "How about New Hampshire Sullivan?" "Well, that will do for today. Go have a few pints and it will be ready at the end of the day." "When is the end of the day ?" I asked. Her reply--"If you come back and the door is locked, your are too late." She stopped sorting the clothes and looked at me with a big smile and said, "It will be ready at four o'clock." I thanked her and left. I enjoyed the little banter ba! ck and forth, but left as there were pints with the name Sullivan on them waiting for us. > > Mark Sullivan > > NH > > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
