In his grandfather’s overcoat pocket, John Smith finds a ticket for shoes left for repair in 1955

John Smith is cleaning out his grandfathers home after the grandfather’s death  at 90.
In one of the grandfathers old overcoats pockets he finds a ticket for some shoes that the grandfather had left to be repaired in 1955. Out of curiosity, he checks online and is amazed to see that the shoe shop is still in business at the same location.
John enters the shop and starts talking to the owner who explains that he is, in fact, the grandson of the original owner and has worked in the shop all his life. John gives the ticket to the shop owner who heads into the back of the shop just to see if the shoes are still there.
After some time he returns from the back of the and exclaims “Amazingly I was able to find the shoes! They will be ready on Monday.”

“And to my son…”

An elderly gentleman was on his deathbed as his wife, three children and nurse stood close by.

Then he spoke his final wishes:

“James, you take the Maple Hills houses”.

“Nicholas, you take the Kings Forest shops”.

“Joshua, the apartments at the Limassol Marina are yours”.

“To my dear wife, Anne, you take all the residential buildings in Highland Park”.

The nurse was really impressed. She said, “Your husband must have been quite a man, amassing so much property to leave to all of you.”

The wife responded, “What property? … the schmuck had a window cleaning round!”
