18. Tickle Me

[John]

I am sure at some point Tom will come out and will tell us that elvis secretly visited him in his hometown in england.
Because elvis loved Tom very, very much.

Tom had a place in Weybridge, which is a very wealthy area. John Lennon, Gilbert O'Sullivan, Engelbert Humperdinck and many other celebrities lived there. It was part of my area as a sales rep in the mid 70s and I used to park up outside their houses at lunchtimes and eat my sandwich. There was security, but no one ever stopped me or questioned why I was there, which was, to visit the tennis club to try and get their business.

Now I can't be 100% sure, but I think I saw him playing tennis one time against this slightly heavy set guy with big sideburns and a white jumpsuit.

Sounds like elvis.
He visited a car dealer with his jumpsuit.
Why not wearing one while playing tennis with his best friend and musically superior english colleague?

I remember he won the first point and shouted out 15 - love me tender, uh huh huh.

I am sure elvis did not hold the last note on "huh huh", as he was lazy doing such things.
And surely was imitating the style Tom played tennis.
