Hundred and Nineteen

'Hey George! Vive la France!'
'Oh God here we go George. Just ignore them'.
'Allez les Bleus!'
'Did you see they're all flying home second class?'
'Yeah and their coach didn't even shake hands with the South African coach at the end of the match'.
'It's not in the spirit of the game'.
'I think it's disgraceful'.
'Not as bad as Anelka telling Domenech to 'fuck off you son of a bitch'.
'No!'
'That's what he said'.
'They're going home to a government enquiry'.
'Yeah sickbag! Your team's performance has been fantastic. Really magnifique!'


'Good afternoon, Simon Lewis's office, can I help you?...... No I'm afraid he's in a meeting at the moment. Can I take a message?..... I don't know when it will fin/.... Mike Clark? Yes of course, I'll let him know you called. Bye. Good afternoon Simon Lewis's office?...... Oh hi Abbie how are/ What?..... No no it's fine. He's in his office watching the football. He brought his TV in from home. Can you believe it, we've just made a number of people redundant, everyone is on a pay freeze and Simon is watching the football. Sorry I didn't call you back the other day but George has been on a rampage ever since I spoke to you and he's trashed the flat. There isn't one thing that he hasn't chewed, bitten, torn, scratched, shred/.... Why? Because France are out of the World Cup and he's the laughing stock of the office. They can't resist taunting him/ wait a minute, where is he?....... George?... Shit, I've got to go Abbie. I can't see George. He's probably wrecking something. I've got to go. Bye'.


'George! Get out of the stationery cupboard right now! What are you do/ Oh my God what a mess!'
Simon fiddled the draw so he can take/
'What's all this white stuff? Oh no. Is this Tippex everywhere? OK that's naughty George. Come on, out! NOW! I've had enough of this ridiculous behaviour'.
You have no right to tell me how to behave when Simon is a cheat and/
'It's a bloody game for heaven's sake/'
It is NOT A GAME!
'so stop this nonsense right now'.
IT IS NOT A GAME PIPS IT IS NOT A GAME!
'Ssssh! If you don't start behaving you're going to be put on the next bus home just like your team - and on your own too'.
Like I care.
'George come back... George!'
Up yours Pips.
