A balding, white haired man from Sanctuary Cove in Queensland,
walked into a jewellery store on the Gold Coast with a beautiful,
much younger, woman at his side. He told the jeweller he was
looking for a really special ring for his new girlfriend.
The jeweller looked through his stock and brought out a $5,000 ring.
The man said, 'No, No, that’s a mere bauble… I'd like to see
something much more special.'
At that statement, the jeweller went to his special stock and brought
another ring over. 'Here's a stunning ring at only $140,000’ - the
jeweller said. The young lady's eyes sparkled and her whole body
trembled with excitement. The old man seeing this said,
'I think we'll take it.'
The jeweller asked how payment would be made and the man
stated, 'By cheque. But I know you’ll need to make sure my cheque
is good, so I'll write it now, you can call the bank on Monday to verify
the funds and we'll pick the ring up Monday afternoon.'
On Monday morning, the jeweller angrily phoned the old man and
said 'There's no money in that account.'
'I know’, said the old man wearily ‘but let me tell you all about
my fantastic weekend!!'
