Numbers

To remember numbers He had visited a town in Spain famous for a tall church spire the inside of the church was a cavern of despair and promises not fulfilled. Now he waited outside for the coach to take him to the airport it was delayed, so he walked into a bar for a beer. When he came out, 5 bottles of beer later, the coach had gone he had to take a taxi to the airport. A cash machine nearby, but he had forgotten the code, asked a man behind him for his and was met with a blank stare. A building, at the edge of the town, he was told it has all the codes of the world on a ledger chained to a desk. He asked the clerk for his code giving the clerk his identification papers and passport were handed the code in a brown envelope. The taxi to the airport was uneventful, but the ride was of no avail the plane had lifted off, so he had another beer.
