Happy Moon Festival!

It’s almost over, but Happy Moon Festival everyone!

I hope you all got a chance to crouch down and cook dead animals over hot coals, to eat a mooncake or two, to spend some time with family and friends, and to have a couple of gin and tonics. And to think there’s only one more work day until the weekend.

And what a long workday it’s likely to be, so save a couple of those gin & tonics for me.

Happy Moon/Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone!

Cranky, I’ll make sure I’ve got a couple of bottles for you. Any time you want some Bombay GTs, you let me know. I’ll even put a little mooncake on a toothpick in it for a garnish.

I heard somewhere that moon cakes are a con and not really made out of the moon, is this true ?
