Cheers to a Merry Christmas 2021 and a Happy New Year?

If there is one thing that sends panic into Australian's hearts and stomach's it's the thought of an alcohol shortage at Christmas and New Year ... or any time really:-)

The newspapers like to scare us Aussies (probably in an effort to stock up to make $$$ off us) into buying frenzies by promoting stories like the one above about s#it beers like Corona running out.

But I paid (literally) a visit to my local big barn bottle-shop yesterday to secure my Christmas beer supplies and there were no worries as far as beers running out from what I could see.

One guy even had about 10 cartons of Corona on his industrial strength shopping trolley ... so thank God I'm not invited to his place for that party:-)

My choice for Christmas for the last few years has been Cooper's Stout and I picked up a six pack yesterday JUST LIKE THAT:-)

A Sync "Just Like That!"

And even if I do test positive for Covid and have to self-isolate, I'll still have a six-pack of Cooper's Stout for Christmas Day:-)

All ready for NYE 2021:-)

$10 Bucks Fizz that's just as good a Moet, I reckon:-)

And who needs French Sparkling Wine when even the cheap Aussie Champagne stuff tastes better?-)
