I scored 3. A relief to not be all that knowledgeable about this silly man. Pel, are you SERIOUS?
I sort of met him once, years ago, a bit after the start of his career, he`d come to `support` the local Tory, and came to the nursing home where I worked. He was a babbling TWERP! My boss was all beside himself, having a minor celebrity in the place, trying to introduce him to residents (the only lucid ones around at the time that weren`t taking an afternoon nap were a couple of octogenarian ladies who were life members of the Labour Party. One of them asked something like `what have Your Sort ever done for us?`. He started to babble about Tories and she stopped him dead, not TORIES, I said YOUR SORT!` He knew he`d been Dismissed. I was trying to get past the bunch of people stood near the office at this point, and my boss turned and spotted me and tried to introduce me to his visitor - I excused myself as I had a large clinic tray in my hands with the kit to pass a naso-gastric feeding tube, I wasn`t rude, I just said `scuse me, I`m really busy`...my boss took him off to the dining room, out of the way, for refreshments.
At that time, the cook who did the tea tray was a dour Yorkshirewoman. Heart of Gold, very down to earth, did a beef and ale pie to DIE for, staff would swap shifts to be eligible for a meal when she was doing one of her Pies....I was busy, didn`t see Kathy Cook till just before teatime,
and she was still mumbling `wanker` quietly. I asked her who she meant and got one of her very dark looks...`HIM, that ...then her face cleared, and she almost smiled, and uttered the name of our boss and said `yeah, him as well!` |
