Options...

[timill]

We want to be in London on Friday night, staying later than usual. Three options present themselves:

(1) Book cheap hotel room; travel by train, up Friday, back Saturday, plus taxis in London.
(2) Cheap day return by train, coming back on the last train. Taxis in Ely and London.
(3) Limo service door-to-door-to-door. Champagne optional.

Since we're still recovering from Marcia being un(der)employed, we're going with the cheapest option.

So we will decline the optional champagne.

I could put you up.

Thanks, but we'll go with what we've booked. Even at the cost of not meeting Miss P.

One of the things the width of the punchline would not contain is that the limo service is one of the businesses Marcia works for, so we have a "staff discount" quote. Also, staying over would mean putting the dogs into kennels.
