king told the great writer

would

England's

Abbey.

wasn't
all.

I
am
writing

complaint
about
the
impolite
treatment
my
guests,
my
colleague and I received when we

tables had already
been booked.
We appreciate that there
must be great demand for restaurant meals at this
time of the year in
such a popular and
historic area but we were not expecting such an
ill-mannered reception on the
part of
your head waiter.
Our
Chinese
friends
are
currently
touring
the
'Shakespeare
Country'
and
were
looking
forward to a traditional English dinner
in such a charming setting. But our hopes for an
enjoyable
evening
out
were
instantly
spoilt
when
your
head
waiter
informed
us
that
he
had
received
