Lead On

VB

How does it happen?
Your reading the news
Or lighting a fuse
Or straining till you thought you would burst
You sure got a thirst

A hard earned thirst needs an ice cold beer
And the best cold beer is Vic
Victoria Bitter

You can get it jumpin' You can get it pumpin'
You can get it chasing a cow.
Matter o' fact, I got it now

A hard earned thirst needs an ice cold beer
And the best cold beer is Vic
Victoria Bitter

The week's end!  Hurrah.  Charly is down with the 'flu now too and had yesterday off school.  Must strip sheets and disinfect the house tomorrow to minimise its further spread {that's something to look forward to!}.  One week to go before school breaks-up and we take some leave to embark on one of our famous roadtrips.  Meantime, I still have to go turbo-charged through today.  While I am most definitely not a beer-drinker, except perhaps with a curry, I can empathise with the sentiments of the well-known Australian advertising jingle for Victoria Bitter.  This past month I feel as if I have been wrangling cattle or crossing hostile, uncharted territory on horseback and the thought of an ice cold something in a glass and feet up, sounds very appealing.  Right. Off to get my lasso and spurs.
