Peter Grant's performance contract discussions

Recommended Posts

"Well Peter", says Delia, "a strange couple of weeks- you''ve moved your photos onto your desk and bought yourself a new paperclip holder, but we do need to work out your objectives for the year".

"How about eradicating third world debt?" says Peter.

"Oh no, far too easy and that Robert Boomtown rock star person is already doing that", says Deals. Peter thinks hard.

"How about solving global warming and avoiding a world economic catastrophe?" he says.

"Come on now, dear" says Delia "That nice Mr Cameron has said he will have that all under control soon, so lets have some more positive carbon emissions from you". Peter is still trying to impress.

"I have it!" he exclaims "I''ll end all religious hatred and fundamentalism, all without bringing back David Icke".

"Oh dear. Have we made a mistake here?" asks Delia rhetorically. "Lord Nigel was always so much more optimistic about what he could do". Peter is stumped.

"OK Pete. I have something which is far more challenging than all of that which I have no doubt even Anthony Worrall Thompson could manage between TV shows. What I want  you to do is get that bunch of good for nothing third rate mugs kicking those small round leather things we keep in the store room to each other, and in the right direction. Not only that but you have to persuade those pie-eating fools who buy season tickets that you are better than my dearest Nigel so that means only losing by two goals to Burnley next year".

"No way. No way. Impossible. You''re a madwoman. Barmy. Look I came here for a nice easy life. I''ll send a manned mission to Mars, even me. Anything. You ask too much. You''re all loonies. I''m off, keep the paperclip holder".

Peter hurtles off up Prince of Wales Road. He is last seen with a pencil up his nose muttering "Wibble"
