"So, Tracey, you mum tells me you got another modelling gig today."
"Yes, Dad."
"Well, tell me all about it."
"Err, it was just a seasonal photo-shoot, you know, some girls Xmas shopping, red outfits, that sort of thing."
"Did you remember my advice: show them the £7,500 teeth I paid for from my redundancy settlement and your perfectly plastic-surgeoned face I paid £12,000 for with my accident policy pay-out?"
"Err, yes Dad."
"So, when do we see the pictures?"
"Err, not sure. Somewhere round New Year."
"I thought you said it was Xmas shopping?"
"Err, no, January sales, that was it."
"In red outfits?"
"Err, yes. Sort of."
"Sort of? And why do you keep saying 'Err'?"
"Err, umm, oh! I was being a princess out shopping with her friends. Yes, that was it! And I was known as 'E.R.' just like the Queen. I had nice boots and pretty Xmas stockings and everything. It was all very tasteful, Dad. But I think it might be for an overseas thing. Yes, that was it. Canadia or New Zealand or summat."
"Oh, good. Just so long as it was tasteful."My all-time favourite Dilbert cartoon, this is: BTW, a Dumpster is a brand of skip, I think.Comment
