‘Hit The Road, Jack’

By David Palmer

27 Years Ago – Brighton, England

As the car draws up to the curb, two girls in silver hotpants leap into action. They come together, pubic bones grinding, knees between thighs. They strike a faux lesbian pose. The big one massages the small one’s breast. The uniformed doorman looks on, expressionless. He’s seen it all before.

Wearily, Jack climbs out on to the sidewalk.

‘Wotcha doin’, girls?’ he drawls in that casual flat delivery only the British can muster at five o’clock in the morning.

‘You,’ choruses the teen duo. The big one says, ‘We’ll do you – any time, any place, anywhere.’

Jack turns his back on them to help his companion out of the car. She is wearing a sunshine-coloured silk maxi coat and little else under it. She’s beautiful enough to be a slap in the face to Jack’s teenage fans. They groan with disappointment.

The couple sweeps past and out of sight.

‘Sorry, girls,’ the doorman says. ‘As you can see, Jack’s got his hands full.’

But the girls turn up again next morning at breakfast. Still in their silver hotpants and wobbling platform shoes, they teeter across the lobby to the cordoned-off area of the hotel restaurant where Jack’s Pack, in varying states of hangover, are eating bacon and eggs.

‘Who let them in?’ Jack mutters to Connie McKenzie, tour publicist.

‘I think they spent the night in Wills’s room.’

‘Get ’em outta here. We got the bleedin’ BBC coming. I don’t want them around.’ Jack returns to his coffee and a copy of the London Times.
