Being a fan of swearing and food I decided to email Gordon Ramsey.
Hello Gordon Ramsey.
My name is Spike Tanner and I am a big fan of your swearing. (Or maybe I should say a huge fucking fan? LOL! Cunt!)
Anyway gather up a chair dear Gordon for I have a store to tell and at the end of it is a request, a very strange request which you might find advantageous?!?
For the past 68 years I have been travelling the world playing the Blues with my band Spike Tanner and The Bulging Sacks. I made a pretty sweet living out of it but unfortunately my behaviour on the road was never that sweet.
I have done some bad things in my time, evil sick things.
I have poured bacon fat into a Jewish man’s coffee, I have deliberately sneezed on a child’s grapes, I have put pornographic magazines in Catholic confessional boxes, I have pissed on a jockey’s saddle, I have sown phallic symbols into a nun’s habbit, I have smoked marijuana in a mosque and crack cocaine in the Vatican.
I have put laxatives in the water station on a marathon race, I have defecated on the ground at a Phil Colins concert, I have started rumours about Mel Brooks and Jennifer Love Hewitt, I have troubled cattle and bothered sheep.
I have lied about my favourite colour.
I have mocked the blind and disorientated the dumb.
I have denied the moon landings ever took place.
For all these acts I am truly sorry and I seek forgiveness but for me forgiveness will be hard to come by.
I do not believe in God or an afterlife, it’s all a load of hocus pocus mumbo-jumbo if you ask me! But I do fell I need reprimanded for my many crimes before I leave this mortal plain. And this is where Gordon , you come in.
I am 84 years and do not expect to see the next St Swithen’s day. I have meagre saving but enough for one last delicious meal at one of your restaurants. What I am proposing is that I come to one of your restaurants Gordon and order the most delicious meal on offer. Then as I sit enjoying the hearty repast I want you to come out in front of all the diners and give me a bollocking. but not just any bollocking but the bollocking from HELL.
I want you to tear strips out of me, call me all the names under the sun
“A fucking cunt-wallop”
“A pissing toad’s penis”
“A worthless fanny scab”
“A tambourine made of blood and dung.”
That sort of thing.
This way I will perhaps feel like I have served some sort of penance for my heinous acts and you will be able to get your usual hard-on from acting like a ignorant ball-bag in a room full of cowering tossers.
So what do you say? Please tell me you will grant a dying man his last wish, his only chance for eternal absolution? Or will you be your usual selfish shitty self, standing there in your little chef’s outfit with a head on you like a busted cock?
Let me know by return of email!
Yours fucking sincerely,
Spike
