Police in Alice Springs say they were appalled to find a driver put a seatbelt around a carton of beer - but left a five-year-old child unrestrained.
Officers stopped the unregistered sedan on the Ross Highway south of Alice Springs on the weekend.
They found the child sitting in the back seat without a seatbelt, but the driver had put a belt around a slab of beer.

Shorty
Thats a bit rough
I can understand if t was the mother in law,LOL, but not a kid.

Yep, the new Gov laws will be banning any premix drinks over 7% so all those high % ones will be upto 6.9% only and you'll pay more also.......bullsh!t!

binge!
They have 3 months to flush out the high % stuff and this is their way
to reduce binge drinking but imo binge drinkers dont spend that $$
anyway on premix's. Ironically they'll still be able to buy a bottle of
full strength stuff (not mixed) and neck that with coke...........go figure!

yeah well its not going to
yeah well its not going to stop you buying a bottle and mixing your own strong drinks anyway, just another way to piss people off and make more money imo
fishy fingers
Stop whining
about the cost of booze, We brew our own at one of the diy breweries it works out less thean a dollar a stubby using your own bottles i.e $146.00 for about 150 stubbies or if you want to can it you get over 100 500ml cans for about 35 dollars extra it taste better than the normal shite no chemicals etc means no hangover...however much you drink
No comparison in my mind
To all the virgins..............Thanks for nothing!

fishing!
If i had time i would but running my 7 day a week business and fishing 3 times a weeks leaves me no time for such fidly stuff.....

agree fingers, i always thought about doing it myself, might be the time to get into it i think, but thats for beer, spirits are different and i prefer bourbon or scotch sometimes over beer, no help there, just buy and bottle and mix it strong i say
fishy fingers
I agree Mako
You do have a point it is only beer but a hell of a saving
all the same
To all the virgins..............Thanks for nothing!

1 Hour
it only takes an hour to sterilise and fill you bottles!
you just order and pay then go back 2 or three weeks later and bottle piece of piss!
To all the virgins..............Thanks for nothing!

sounds ok , so you dont have
sounds ok , so you dont have the home one you go to one of those places like u-brew-it or something? and those prices you quoted are for the premium type beers like crownies etc?
fishy fingers
Thats right mako
we go to u brew it in rockingham the one we do is a premium but they have a lot of different ones cheaper.
they also have a bottle bank where you can buy bottle bank bottles from them, a dozen or so, fill them with your beer and then swap for what they have in the bank it's a good way of sampling without going to the expense of paying for a whole brew and then finding out it's not to your taste
To all the virgins..............Thanks for nothing!
Ryan Thipthorp
home brew!
My mate Pete D makes his own beer, awesome taste and cheap. I'm the same Matt...bourbon boy so that makes it harder!
Nice mix home brew, without the

A still
I think you need to build yourself a still haha....it is distilled isn't it?
To all the virgins..............Thanks for nothing!

Might be waiting a few years
Might be waiting a few years before you get anything out of it. Maybe a moonshine version is a lot quicker though. Might be quicker to put you in the hospital quicker though.

Always interested in someone to go fishing with
NoWorries
You can buy stills
And all the gear to make burbon, scotch, butterscotch snapps, etc (About $700 all up for the full set up)
costs about $5 a Litre
It is illegal though to make it, but not to buy the gear.

a mate of mine used to make
a mate of mine used to make his own spirits... the liquid comes out clearer than water and you just add your own flavour...his used to come out at about 96-97% and then he just water it down 50 50 add the flavour and presto. bloody nice drop to. he explained to me how he does it all and what goes in but i cant rememeber all of it. i know there was a shit load of sugar in it though.
mako magic
yeah along time ago i used
yeah along time ago i used to make some of my own sambucca, used to use that some sort of essence, hoyts brand i think, and yeah was a huge amount of sugar in it and the longer it was left the stronger it got
NoWorries
Totally different now
Those old essences that you mixed up got about a 20% mix
have a look at http://www.essencia.com.au/index.htm
There are quite a few places that sell them in Perth and as boofhead says you can water it down to what ever you want.
I have tried it and the burbon, Scotch and Butterscotch Snapps are great
As I said before it is illegal to distill alcohol but buying all the stuff isn't
I wouldn't ever do it because it is illegal
