Must have been a drink with pineapple in it

... Or an umbrella drink

Pull plug on 'poofter drinks'

MEEKATHARRA'S Royal Mail Hotel has had enough of its so-called $3 "poofter drink" and after the number of emails we have received at IC over the past few days, it's wearing a bit thin here as well.

If you haven't yet received the mock dinner docket, which features dinner at the bistro ($15.50) and a couple of cans of super ($4) as well as the $3 "poofter drink", then collect your email, it's bound to be there.

But according to the hotel's management, there is no such listing on the pub's cash registers and yes, they're sick of fielding calls on the prank.

And while we're on emailings, readers can rest assured that we've read the Bali bombing tribute poem which starts: "You hurt us bombing Bali, but we can take the pain, But if you think you'll beat us, you can think a-bloody-gain" and no, we won't be running the whole thing . . . unless we can channel Leonard Teale.

Oh, now that's gone and ruined it - well and truly.
So much for keeping the prank alive...

Christ...this is sad.

Mike, You'd have to be an Australian to understand.
