..Paul Morrison..

Last week was INSANELY busy. We launched the new BMW 7 Series at the convention centre which required me to live in Impiana hotel for 1 week. Major stressed.

Anyhoo, as usual i have ZERO time to update much so I'm just going to leave you with one of the priceless moments had.. This is a classic and I'm voting for it to be the line of the millenia!

Characters:
Indian chappie: drunk as a skunk and unfortunately I noticed he was a friend of one of my clients at BMW.
Me: Trying to unwind a little bit at the end of a very hectic week.
Paul Morrison: My big black knight in shining armor. Deep voice with British accent. Hilarious. Note picture below. A wonderful character.

And so the story goes..

--------


I was standing at the bar towards the end of the event, having a drink and chatting to the team.

Throughout the night I noticed there was this group of Indian chaps who were giving me the eye and I could tell they were waiting for the right moment to approach.

True enough, one chappie approached me and instinctively I took two steps back. (Guys please note, if you're trying to chat up a girl, the first thing you SHOULDN'T do is step into her 'personal bubble' ie. 3 feet diameter around her.)

Back to the story. So he came up to me, I took two steps back and then this is the conversation:

Indian chappie: Hi my name is .... (editors note: not bothered enough to remember)
Me: I'm Jessica
Indian chappie: I knew it! I knew you weren't Malay.
Me: Ok.

Knight in shining armor: *steps in the 'conversation'* Sorry mate, she's with me.
Indian chappie: No, no. I just wanted to find out if she's Malay. I made a bet with my friends. So what is she?
Knight in shining armor: Well mate, she's half of me and half of something else!
Me: *rolls on floor laughing*
Indian chappie: Oh. Sorry.

At this point the chappie made a quick dash for the comfort and security of his other drunk friends. As for me? I was too busy trying not to pass out from laughing too much.

"She's half of me and half of something else.."

Priceless I tell you..
