The wedding planner threatened to call the police.
Then a hotel employee found a letter in Vanessa's room.
The letter contained only one sentence:
*"If you're reading this, I've made a terrible mistake."*
Nobody knew what it meant.
The ceremony was canceled.
Guests began leaving.
And that's when the police arrived.
They weren't looking for Vanessa.
They were looking for the groom.
Apparently, he wasn't a successful businessman.
He was the target of a massive fraud investigation.
Millions of dollars had vanished from investors.
The police believed Vanessa had discovered the truth and fled.
Everyone was shocked.
Except me.
Because twenty minutes earlier, Vanessa had called my phone.
She was crying.
My shoulder was bothering me so I went to see a doctor today
A nice nurse at the reception greeted me saying it’s “7 hours wait minimum”
“Not a problem” I said, and sat down to read the EU Constitution (I carry a pocket copy everywhere)
Finally the doctor called me
“So what’s wrong?” he asked
“My shoulder hurts when I lift my arm”
“Then don’t do that” he replied
5 minutes, done
That’s how efficient healthcare is in Europe
On my way out I stopped by the reception desk
“How much was the visit?” I asked
“It’s free”
“I know” I whispered proudly, putting on my sunglasses
This is what a functioning society looks like
Meanwhile Americans are dying in Ubers because they can’t afford ambulances
Congratulations to our Elite under 7s, 10s, 11s and 13s for their excellent matches against Coventry this morning. The games were played in great spirit, with some fantastic football on display, well done to all! 🔴⚪
