Hang on, hang on hang on hang on. I've got your real present here.
It's a piece of paper. It is a small piece of paper.
Read it.
"Madame Swish, 3:30." Oh! Eddie! You haven't? Oh, what a pal you are. "Madame Swish". Ooh-err! God, at last I'm really going to do it. And on my birthday as well! Oh, I wonder what she's like?
She's a dead cert mate, a real stayer.
Really?
Yeah, she'll come first.
What, before me? Good grief, that's quick. So she'll think I'm great! Oh, what a pal you are! And it's all paid for?
Um, not exactly. I need a tenner.
A tenner. Right. That's quite cheap, isn't it?
Er, well, no, in that case it's a tenner each way.
How many ways are there?
Well you'll come first, second or third?
Third? How many people are gonna be there?
Well, a few thousand.
What!
It's at Kempton.
Kempton?! I can't get all the way down to Kempton by 3:30!
You won't have to, mate. It'll be on the telly.
They're going to televise it? Well what if my auntie's watching?
Well what's illegal about betting on a horse?
A horse?! Madame Swish is, is a horse!
Yeah! What did you think it was?
Oh nothing. Just checking.
I have given you a red-hot tip.
I know and there's nothing I can do about it now, is there!
