GHK News - The View from the First Man Over the Top

 

Illustrious.

 

Rugby Players, Coaches and Allakadoos in General should use OLD ANNIESLAND SPIRIT.

 

‘To Old Anniesland Unlimited.

The Oxford Crew this year drank Old Anniesland Spirit and found it very sustaining….They found it both grateful and comforting.

(Signed Guy Nikalls)

President Oxford University Boat Club

OXFORD WON.

 

OLD ANNIESLAND SPIRIT

 

Note it contains a fine powder, the actual fibrine of the front row. Invaluable to all who aspire to Rugby eminence.

Guaranteed absolutely pure. Makes a grand drink in an instant. Unequalled for enriching Soups, Gravies, Entrees etc., etc.

Ask Jim Dempsey or Maureen for it, and refuse imitations.

 

TO EVERYBODY

 

Never be without it!

Use it morn and night,

There’s no doubt about it,

OLD ANNIESLAND SPIRIT puts you right!

Keep it in the Household,

Have it on the shelf;

Give it to your children,

Take a cup yourself.

 

USE OLD ANNIESLAND SPIRIT!

Yours as always, running towards the gunfire. 11am Flying Scotsman. Pulling armpit hairs. Never wearing white boots. The need to pee at five to three. Forwards should always hunt in packs. Grasp the waistband. Never face the grass and never put your hands on backwards. Challenge your twilight hours. Teamtalks in the showers are the German way. Altos Band. Pate Pies. Cammy Little’s novel One Name. Mine. The temptation of the comeback. The back seat of the bus. The front seat of the bus. Percy’s Tipple. Friebe’s impeccable attendance.
