How well can you count?

Can you count?.

Three friends hire a car to go away for a day, Scott, Jock and Jimmy, They all go together and book the car and all pay £10 each giving a total of a £30 hire charge. Leave happy and go away for the Day in the hire car.
After Scott, Jock and Jimmy, Left the car hire office!,
The manager said to the receptionist how much have you charged them for the days hire, the receptionist replies £30,
The manager says have you forgotten we have a special offer this month it's only £25 per day, so when they get back refund £5 to them.
All-day the receptionist was thinking to herself, how am I going to divide this £5 between three people? So she decides she will give each fella £1 each refund and pocket the remaining £2.
1 + 1 +1 +2 = 5
Problem......If she gave each fella £1 refund each then Scott, Jock and Jimmy would have paid £9 each for the day's car hire....
9 + 9 + 9 = 27 and the receptionist pocketed £2
27 + 2 = 29.... So what happened to the missing £1 ?????

I have not got it, It's not in my pocket.... do you know where it could possibly be.
