Extract from Tony Blair's new book

kiwi_2005 · 09-19-10, 11:31 PM

‘I had regularly started jogging out of Downing Street. On each run I happened to jog past a hooker standing on the same street corner, day after day.

With some apprehension I would brace myself as I approached her for what was most certainly to follow.

"Fifty quid!" she would shout from the kerb. "No way, 50p!" I fired back.
This ritual between myself and the hooker continued for days.

I'd run by and she'd yell, "Fifty quid!" And I'd yell back "50p!"

One day however Cherie decided that she wanted to accompany me on my jog. As we jogged nearer the problematic street corner, I realised the "pro" would bark her £50 offer and Cherie would wonder what I'd really been doing on all my past outings.

I realised I’d need to have a damn good explanation for my illustrious lawyer wife. As we jogged into the turn that would take them past the corner, I became even more apprehensive than usual.

Sure enough, there was the hooker. I tried to avoid the prostitute's eyes as she watched the pair of us jog past.

Then, from the pavement, the hooker yelled,

"See what you get for 50p?"

That's actually funny!

Is that a real extract from the book?!

Fantastic

Ah must be real then. Our own president would never ever jog on public street. I mean just by himself or with few bodyguards for personal reason unless for an event.

Remember the good old days when National leaders would march with the army and command the battles from the front instead of hiding at home and dealing with politics?

He doesn't and neither do you, unless you were born somewhere in the 13th century

I'm afraid not...the original version was Charles and Camilla

Great joke though

There is nobody alive today who can remember when that happened, nor has there been for several hundred years at least.

Yes, but he wasn't being serious

Arrrgh would have been some funny story if it was reel. If not can't be bothered
