The pudding took quite a while. When it did arrive the waiter said,

“Chef apologizes but one of the Apple Tartine’s is slightly over-caramelised”.

By which he meant ‘burnt’.

“Not to worry”, said I “when it comes to the bill you will find that payment will be slightly under-capitalised”.

By which I meant ‘short’.
