Easy 10
Brain dead MUG SHEEP
Hmmmm.
Went for a swifty in the Kings Head after work this evening, and a chap I vaguely know, and who drinks there quite regularly, came in, draped his arm over my shoulders, and said "You're not skint are you mate ?".
"No, I do alright" I said.
"Can I ask a really big favour then ?" he said. "Would you mind lending me some money till tomorrow lunchtime ?"
"How much ?" I asked.
"Sixty quid" he said. He then offered me his passport and promised faithfully to come back tomorrow lunchtime and leave the £60 behind the bar for me.
I pondered. He's a local and I often see him there. Regular readers of NSC may recognise him from last year - he's the chap who was de-bagged by the strippers, then laid prostrate on the pub floor with shaving cream squirted on his privates, had a golf ball placed on his knob, before the stripper set fire to the whole thing and took a 7 iron tee shot off his gonads, sending shards of flaming shaving cream and a toy golf ball into the audience.
Anyway, to cut a long story short (ish), I LENT him it. I didn't take his passport (who's going to leave the country on sixty quid ?), but he's left his passport behind the bar anyway, and tomorrow evening, I'll go there for my usual Friday night bevvie and see whether I've been royally STITCHED. I don't think I will have though, as he's good mates with the Landlord there, who I get on very well with, and he's down there often enough for me to lamp him if he's pulled a fast one. Have I done the right thing ?
