So was down at the pub knocking back a double fresh orange and soda, when that train guy swanned in, you know the good guy one not the other.one.

so I buttonholed him, and explained I couldn’t help but overhear his conversation on the train, and asked him how it finished

so it will involve, he, me, and the bad guy.( less of a bad guy, now, and closer to being a good guy),

Bad guy….. They might be turning a corner, better watch out those sharks in the States don’t gobble them up for pennies.

He……. Actually they probably did try that one on, cos the management decided to go it alone.

Bad guy, ha ha, hell hath no fury like an oil company scorned.

He …. Ha ha, you’re right, they came out swinging, a four well development programme this year, and a full field development of 16 wells over the next four years.

Bad guy….. like it, well good luck buddy, this is my stop, but I’ll definitely look further into this one.

He….. and that was it , I don’t suppose I’ll run into him again.

Me…. Great story mate, I wondered how that conversation would end. Can I get you a round.

He…. Sure thing mate, I’ll have a pint of bitter, cheers.

Nothing to beat good company and a double fresh orange and soda.
