Gordon : So Mrs Banking Corporation, you're thinking of sending little HSBC to join our happy little band.
Mrs BC : Well only if it's the right place for him.
Gordon : We like to think we give our pupils the schooling they need.
Mrs BC : I feel that my little dear really needs a stern hand.
Gordon : Well only this week I had to give RBS a very strict telling off. I told him that I was very cross with him and I didn't expect that sort of behaviour in the future.
Mrs BC : Very good. How many pupils do you have here.
Gordon : Well there's RBS of course, Lloyds TSB, Funny old Bradford and Bingley – they both insist on wearing their silly hats to lessons and our oldest student Little Northern Rock, bless him. Of course we expect quite a new influx over the coming months.
Mrs BC : It sounds just the place. We need to discuss fees of course.
Gordon : Well £300billion is the norm here.
Mrs BC : Yes that sounds just fine.
Gordon : Of course little HSBC will get full board during his time here, access to a full range of extra circular activities and access to our special course "Lending again" taught by Professor Darling.
Mrs BC : I think this is just place I'll take it.
Gordon : Lovely – well we'll see HSBC next week then.
BOTH STAND UP AND MRS BC HEADS FOR THE DOOR, THEN STOPS.
Mrs BC : Oh what about the money Mr Brown.
Gordon : I'm sorry I almost forgot. Hang on I'll write you a cheque.
