Meeting



The AGM of the allotment committee was a dull affair.
It was full of elderly people who looked like they could draw their last breath at any second.
“Any other business?” the chairman of the committee asked.
“Yes!” yelled the Winston Churchill-alike on the back row.
There was a collective gasp. Nobody ever had any other business. What the hell was going on?
“The rabbit problem.”
“Yes?” asked the chairman.
“What are you going to do about it?”
“I’m sorry,” interrupted a man who resembled Terry Nutkins, “but what does that have to do with the committee?”
“It has everything to do with the committee!”
Churchill rose to his feet and headed towards Nutkins, knocking chairs and people out of the way as he went.
He picked Nutkins up, a feat of strength which surprised everybody in the room. He carried the man above his head and slammed him through the table at the front of the room.
“Just a minute,” said the chairman. “You’re responsible for the rabbit problem if it’s on your plot.”
Churchill picked up a chair and smacked the chairman in the face with it.
He left the room, leaving Nutkins and the chairman unconscious.
The secretary looked perplexed. “How do I record this in the minutes?” she asked.
