Tripoliville

Scene 1

Jack Straw and Peter Mandleson are meeting.

Straw : I'm getting a right arse reaming over the this Libyan thing Peter.

Mandleson : If I could I take it for you Jack I would!

Straw : We better get some bloody investment out of Gaddafi for this shit.

Mandleson : Listen, I've heard there is going to be a major move very shortly

Straw: What is it? Some tie in with the old black gold?

Mandleson. More like brown gold.

Straw: Brown gold?

Mandleson: Let's say forget Bournville, think Tripoliville.

Straw: What?

Mandleson: No more Creme Eggs, think Creme Semtex.

Straw: Cadbury's? The Libyan's are buying Cadbury's?

Mandleson: Oh yes!

Straw: They can't.

Mandleson: Why?

Straw: Dairy Milk! They won't like that will they? Cows and all that.

Mandleson: They're Muslims not Hindus!

Straw: Okay then, Animal bars – they won't put pigs on them anymore.

Mandleson: Small price to pay for saving all those jobs.

Straw: Well I suppose so , I can't see people being keen on Curly Burka's though.

Mandleson: Look the Libyan's aren't terrorists anymore, we should accept them with open arms. I have it on good authority that he is going to lower prices and up production!

Scene 2

Tent in Libyan desert. Gaddafi is addressing his government.

Gaddafi : So bombs and guns failed! I have a new plan gentleman. Death by chocolate.

Nicely topical.

Nicely topical.

And funny?

I did chuckle at this, liked it quite a bit. In fact, it really got me goat...oh do you know what Mr Big, go on GIve us a hug!:)

Hug

Howdi Bigfella - 2ns scene didn't float my boat, but I liked the first one. And yep, funny. Topical stuff doesn't usually do it for me, but that's good stuff

Quite good, in particular 'curly burka's'

Thanks for the feedback folks
