Hetty, an elderly lady, has been driving around the Brent Cross shopping centre’s car park for some time looking for a place to park when at last she finds one and stops to pull into it. Suddenly, a youngster drives his car around her and parks his smart silver Audi in her space.
Hetty is so upset that she gets out of her car and says to the young driver, “I was going to park there!”
As he walks away, the man just laughs and says, “That’s what you can do when you’re young and quick.”
Well, this really infuriates Hetty. She gets back into her car, backs it up and then drives it at speed straight into his Audi. The youngster runs back to his damaged car and asks, “What did you do that for?”
Hetty smiles and replies, “That’s what you can do when you’re old and rich.”
