First Gentleman

22nd January 2007

THE CLINTONS ARE HAVING BREAKFAST.

“Hey Hilary honey, do you realise that if you make President that ah’ll be the First Gentleman.”

“We might just have a problem there, Honey”

“Honey?”

“Well what on earth makes you think that you could ever be called a gentleman, Bill?”

“No, ah’ll make it honey, you can be sure of that. Ah’ve already started giving up mah seat on the subway and holding doors open for ladies.”

“I think it might take a bit more than holding doors open, Hon.”

“There is more. Ah prefer blondes. And they do say that gentlemen prefers blondes, don’t they.”

“Monica Lewinsky wasn’t a blonde as ah recall.”

“Who?”

“And that’s another thing. I think you’ll find that Gentleman don’t go around having their cocks sucked by other women.”

“That gal was lahing, Hon. Ah’ve told you before. That was a big fat lah that girl told.”

“Surely you’re not still denying that bitch gave you a blow job are you?”

“Like ah’ve already explained a hundred times, Hon, ah’d been bitten by a snake and Monica was sucking out the poison.”

“The only snake she was sucking was you trouser snake, Bill. Anyway this conversation is academic because if I make it to the White House I’m going to ditch you and have someone else as my First Gentleman.”

“What!”

“Congressman Northcott.”

”Congressman Northcott? But that guy is nothing but a pussy licker, Honey, just as goddamn pussy licker.”

“Yes?”

“Ignore this if you have already read it. My books Dear Air 2000 and Football Crazy are now in print. They are priced at £8.99 each and are available from Amazon, but readers of my blog can buy them direct from me for £7.50 including p & p. Just send me a cheque and I will send the book/books by return.

Hi. I’m Terry Ravenscroft, I’m aged 67 and…..whoooah, come back, I’m not ready to have the lid nailed down on my coffin just yet. Anyway I’m a very young 67. (About five years ago I went to see Pulp at the Manchester Evening News Arena. I was older than everyone else by at least 35 years. The eighteen-year-old next to me asked me if I’d ever been to the venue before. I replied ‘Yes I saw George Formby here once’. She’d never heard of him.) This blog is going to be about my life and the way I see things. Before I retired I was a comedy scriptwriter for Les Dawson and Smith and Jones amongst others so there’s a sporting chance that some of the things I write will be funny. One of the reasons I’m writing this blog, although by no means the only reason, is because I have a website www.topcomedy.co.uk which I hope you will log on to occasionally. I have yet to meet anybody who doesn’t like Dear Air 2000…. My hobbies are walking, playing crown green bowls, watching football, birdwatching , cooking, and, according to The Trouble, moaning. Oh, and I have a thing about Kristen Scott Thomas. A couple of people I will be mentioning from time to time are The Trouble and Atkins Down The Road. The Trouble is my wife. I don’t call her The Trouble because it’s cockney rhyming slang for ‘wife, trouble and strife’, but because she has the habit of starting sentences, especially to me, with the words ‘The trouble with you is….’ Then goes on to complete the rest of the sentence with words like ‘you never listen when I’m talking to you’ or ‘you never see the other person’s point of view’ or some such other frivolous complaint. Atkins Down The Road is my best friend and lives, not surprisingly, down the road. I started a weblog a couple of years ago but stopped doing it to write a novel about golf called ‘A Good Walk Spoiled.’ If you want to read the weblog it can be found on my website, if you want to read the novel it can be found on my other website, Razzamatazz, at www.razza.fsnet.co.uk along with lots of other things.
