The following was deposited on my desk the other day.

	Douglas L. Lamb is pleased to announce
	OLD FELLA RED CLARET
	"The Big 69'er"

AN UNUSUAL "Rough-as-Guts" wine that has the Distinctive Bouquet of old and
ill-cared for animals.  It is best drunk with the teeth clenched to prevent
ingestion of the seeds and skins.  Connoisseurs will savour the slight
Tannin Taste of burnt shag feathers and soiled medical dressings. Possessors
of a cultivated Palate admire the initial assault on the taste buds which comes
from the careful and loving blending of circus hosings with perished jock
strpas.  The maturing in Midland Abattoir hogsheads gives it a very Definite
Nose.  In the United States this wine is marketed as Crow Brand (9 out of 10
people wo drink it for the first time exclaim "VRAAAARRRRRK").

It won a Bronze at the 'Kings Cross Homosexuals Convention' of 1973

Caution: avoid contact with the eyes and open cuts.  Keep away from
	naked flames- both old and new.
