Is prohibition nearing an end?

Rumours are rife that the "no blog - no grog" ruling may soon be repealed.

Her Maj has appealed to Marcus Copperi to cancel the ruling after thousands of spectators have started leaving Manning Point to head back to the Commonwealth Games. "One was hoping for a few spare seats to sit ones Corgis on" her Maj complained.

In a turn of events completely unplanned for, traffic is actually banked up for many kilometres trying to get OUT of Manning Point.

Certain that the ban will be overturned, Uncle Dans Grog Emporium has cancelled plans to hold a 99% off sale on all beer stocks and has instead ordered in extra supplies of James Boag and James Squire for Thursday.

Pressure is also growing from Manning Point Bowlo who have had to lay off dozens of barstaff because of the ban.
