A light snack

An elderly gentleman came in at the weekend.
He was on his own, and moved very slowly. And spoke very slowly.
"I'd like a cup of tea please," he said.
"And a piece of the fruit cake" he added.
I asked where he would like to sit?
"And a piece of Victoria Sponge," he said.
"And a piece of the Raspberry and Coconut Slice."
He waved to the table near the entrance and said he would sit there.
I delivered his three cakes.
He really wasn't at all interested in the tea.
