'Twas a clear and hot day

Boiling hot, as only the great Outback can be, and I'd just driven into a little town for the first time. This one had three pubs and I'm straight into the nearest. Ordered a beer and the barmaid asks if I'm an RC. What's my religion got to do with this? "An RC, dear", she says. "A Regular Customer. There's a beer strike on and we're only serving Regular Customers, and obviously you're not one of 'em or you'd've known what a bloody RC is!" Next pub I introduce meself as an RC and the barmaid says she doesn't care about my religion, but where's me bloody glasses? Tell her I don't wear 'em and she says "Ya beer glasses, dummy. Don't ya know there's a beer strike on? We're only serving locals who know to bring their own glasses, so obviously yer an out-of-townie!" Pinched a couple of glasses on the way out, dumps 'em on the bar of the third pub, and says "Fiill 'er up". "Not Likely", comes the reply. "Yer've had ya bloody quota!"

Clearly need to master the art of beggin' - I'd beg with ya' but the CH won't let me. Think we could sell this as a cure for alchoholism? Tom

Would the owner of the propane torch, egg beater, pipe expander and vise grips please claim these items. They're lodged in my head and I need the space.
