ABOUT THE NT AUSTRALIA DELEGATE
Australia:
Northern Territory
Bill Bee may be twisted, but he's far from bitter. After all, he lives in a land where more beer is drunk per capita than anywhere else in Australia -- and (he claims) even the entire planet. G'day, Bill!
Bill Bee's submission to the Review your favourite beer page really grabbed our attention.
It wasn't enough that he'd been to Cambodia, had a beer there and wrote about the experience.
He'd gone so far as to paint the scene in ink and BEER and upload the results!
This makes him a true piss artist, and where we come from, that's a major compliment.
From his description of the Northern Territory, people don't have much more to do there but imbibe copious quantities of beer. (And wonder which drunk dingo designed their state flag. Ed.)
Our livers shake in fear at the very thought of his mate Stein, who gets through 20 litres of homebrew in the average week!
Let's hear from the man himself.
Bill's proposal speech:
Hi all you beer drinkers out there. I'm an Aussie
beer-only drinker for Darwin in the Northern Territory. My favourite
tipple at the present is any of the various Coopers Home Brews,
but I have been known to "try" a few others.
Now It is not my intention to create controversy here, perish the
thought that the Secretary General will be inundated with rival claims,
but:
I am fully aware that the administrative center
for the UNOB is far away from us Territorians, in a gentle and more
sophisticated place, but the true heart and soul of global beer
drinking lies well and firmly here in the Northern Territory.
This is not a wild guess on my part, but it can be backed up
by solid facts.
-
Our per capita consumption of beer by far outstrips any
other region of the world. Google it if you don't believe
me. In the Wikipedia stats there are a few countries higher
than Australia, but it is a well known fact that a lot of drinkers in
our southern states waste their time drinking plonk (wine), not beer,
so some one has to keep our country's ratings up, eh! -
My mate Stein brews 20 liters of beer a week, say, 50 weeks a year. That's the Australian yearly average in just over four weeks. He is not on his own...
-
Our current Administrator, that is the legal representative of Her Majesty The Queen of England, Australia etc. (similar to Governor Generals in the Australian states), is a chap by the name of Ted Egan, of whom we are all justifiably proud. Ted rose to fame as a singer songwriter with a major hit worldwide, "We've got some bloody good drinkers, in the Northern Territory"
-
Our Administrator (the Queens rep. remember) is also an accomplished musician. His instrument of choice featured on many best selling recordings is the humble empty beer carton. (Presumably he empties the carton himself before he fires up singing)
Cheers, Gan Bei, Kanpai Che Loong, Ge Natz, Ji Ve Li, Salud, Prost, L'Chaim,Slainte, Bottoms up, Skaal.
Wonderful! Welcome Bill, great speech mate...
