Londoners' work ethic

(true, smirk)

When I was in London several months ago, I was staying in a hotel that is
well known for its great service.  Anyway, we got back from the theater one
night at around 12:30 AM, and we decided to call for a little tea and apple
pie.  So anyay, we phoned down for it, and an hour passed and it still had
not come.  

I phoned down again and asked when the apple pie might be here.  The response 
was:

"Oh, we beg your pardon sir, it's just leaving the kitchen now.  It should be
up to your room momentarily."

To that, I asked, "But I ordered it an hour ago.  What took so long?  What
were you doing, baking it?"

"Yes, sir."

I put the phone down.
