This reminds me of the commandment, “Thou shall not tell thy wife that you are taking her to Paris for a romantic weekend when really you are going to the Paris Agricultural Show!”
This really did happen to me, we went to Paris the most romantic city in the world and eneded up at the Agricultural show.
