Abusing freebiesA friend of mine recently attended a 'Champaign Lunch', where he was compelled drink as much fizzy stuff as he could between the first and last courses. In an ideal world we'd ask restaurant staff to tell us stories about fatties stuffing themselves at All You Can Eat places, but we recognise that our members don't all work in the catering trade, so for the rest of you - tell us something about abusing freebies. BTW: Bee puns = you fail.

Liptons Ice TeaOne very hot year in the 1990's I was a member of a Kite display team, named Lost in Space. You know the sort of thing fly in formation, interweave do some jiggery pokery and unwind to be free from each other....anyway... We were displaying over a long weekend at the Essex County Show, and after the display we found Liptons Ice Tea being given away in little cans, absolutely ice cold, by a bevy of beautiful ladies. We snaffled one each, and then found Anglian Water giving away iced water to compare their own with a famous french brand, and 'Could we taste the difference?' Too right we could, Anglian Water is way better than the french stuff by a mile! especially cold.
We wore very distinctive Tshirts and sidled back to the Liptons Ice Tea stand to meekly ask for another can, 'YES' they said 'weve had loads of people ask "Can we have some of that stuff the Kite team are drinking?" you're helping us out, come whenever you like' And we did, lots of times, but I think its because our lead kite fancied one or two of those ladies.
Oh Happy times

Firstly,a kite made of lead wouldn't fly, surely?
Secondly, how can a kite fancy someone?
