Pun warning. Do not say that I did not warn you!

A group of friars moved into town and opened up a florist shop. Things were going very well as they could charge less than everyone else becuase they didn’t need much to live on.

Well their success was causing trouble for the only other florist shop, a family run business, in town. The owners of this shop went to see the friars to ask them to either close their shop or to raise their prices. The friars could not understand this request and refused to do either.

So the father of this family sent his son Hugh over to speak to the friars one last time.

Well this seemed to work, as the friars closed up shop the next day.

Do you know what the moral of the story is?

Hugh, and only Hugh, can stop florist friars.

Again, you were warned.
