BUNDY RUM
(Bundaberg Rum)...Queensland's famous product! Forget Jamaica or any other
rubbish! (For you o/seas people..a King Brown is one of the
deadliest snakes on earth. Out of the world’s top 10, Australia has 5.
When I was recently on holidays I finally got around to going fishing this morning on
the Burnett River, Bundaberg, with Barry Cane an old Army mate, but after
a while we ran out of worms.
Then I saw a King Brown with a frog in his mouth, and frogs are good bait. Knowing
the snake couldn't bite me with the frog in his mouth, I grabbed him right
behind the head, took the frog and put it in my bait bucket.
Now the dilemma was how to release the snake without getting bitten. I grabbed
my trusty bottle of Bundaberg rum (a Bundy Boy never travels without
it) and poured a little rum in its mouth. His eyes rolled back, he went limp, I released him into the river without incident, and carried on my fishing with the frog.
A little later I felt a nudge on my foot.
There was that same snake with two frogs in his mouth.

The power of accurate observation is frequently called cynicism by those who don't have it.
