Iced Tigers

Why Tigers you may ask? Tiger Beer of course. From last year Tiger Beer has been brewed in Mongolia. Mind you, for the past week you cannot buy alcohol in Mongolia. On the 31^st Dec. 11 people died, poisoned by tainted Vodka with dozens of others became ill, some losing their sight. A tragedy. So the government has imposed a total ban on the sale of all alcohol, no matter where it comes from, no matter what type of drink it is in and no matter where it is sold. Not only shops and bars but restaurants are also dry. Even the State Department Store. As of today, 8 days later, there is no sign of the ban being lifted. The word is, it will not be lifted until the Mongolian New Year. Boy, will that be a party night!!!!! As a direct consequence of the ban, the police are reportedly having a much easier time. Far fewer crimes reported, no drunks to lock up, fewer cars crashing into each other and much reduced violent offences. Every cloud………. etc.

Big aren’t they? Brave isn’t she? GRRRRRR! or should be that Brrrrrrrr!
