Just imagine the wealth of possibilities in a bottle
Warning! I am talking briefly about alcohol. I have to put an official warning on my words I think, if I don’t, forget the warning, be unwarned, BUT if I do, be warned.
I hope that passes the Department of Warnings criteria for warnings. If it doesn’t, I’ll be warned by the boss. Anyway , where was I, ah yes, I’m talking briefly about alcohol. But only because I saw it in a shop, um.. er…as I was passing by, a long way away, looking the other direction! Didn’t even know it was there, it was, and yes, it was my Barbs fault. She yelled LOOK! I said ‘NO way, oh ok”. I leapt over four trolleys, six cartons, a quick pirouette and a cartwheel through the wines, and there I was. I gazed upon this bottle with absolute shock and amazement! Green Ant Gin, GAG for short. NOOOO? What’s next, Frog Frangelico, or worse still (dont pardon the pun) Geckouzo. It’s getting outa hand eh. Next there will be Barra Beer, Palm Pilsner or even this calamitous concoction made in our parks, Bindiberg Rum. Let’s not stop there, I’m sure the liquor company’s are riveted to the paper or the screen reading this!
This will have you leaping to the shelves ‘Toad Tequila’. Imagine a happy little toady floating around in a bottle of tequila, of course there is the cheaper brand, with the flat toad.
Taipan Maria, Tia Maria with a bite. I’m not sure I should reveal a certain secret bottle called Dugong Daiquiri , as it was whipped off the shelves immediately, understandably
as they are protected, then instantly replaced by the top selling, Dugong Droppings Daiquiri! Actually that was whipped off the shelf rather quickly too when they realised their shocking mistake, and it became Dugong Floating Droppings Daiquiri. Well they wont drop will they, and if they did, how can you collect them, whereas if they’re floating, the makers go around with little nets and……never mind.
Back to the poor little Green Ants floating around in eternal bliss in the gin. Poor little buggers are about to be smashed upon an ice cube, showered with tonic, and white water rafting into oblivion. Though I must admit, they’re not exactly the Little Mermaid or Thorpy in the bottle. There’s not actually that many either! If they are going to make Green Ant Gin, give us some green ants for goodness sake. This is North Queensland, we could make Wheely bins of Green Ant Gin, daily. So if you see the GAG Flag flying nearby, and all these blokes in steel masks, steel gloves and steel underwear, climbing your trees Ant Napping, you know what they’re making. My Greek girl was not at all interested in Green Ant Gin, but is waiting with absolute rapturous anticipation for Geckouzo, with its glorious aroma of reconstituted Moths. Cheers, tears and Fears!
Happy Days
Oorum !
