OK, so I saw Jason’s post on his lovely Castle hamper that he received and all of a sudden felt like a terrible person.

I have received one of the Castle hampers too. And they rock my socks off, truly. There is a freakin’ place to hold your beer of choice in the braai apron. That’s classy stuff right there.

But on a more serious angle, Castle Lager is doing something very smart this year. They are telling people to drink, but stay the fuck away from driving cars if they are drunk. Now they obviously didn’t use these particular words in their campaign but that’s the gist of it.

Don’t drink and drive. Don’t be a tit, don’t be a murderer and don’t be a tool. Wait, wasn’t that a Van Wilder line? “Don’t be a fool, wrap your tool” – Not pertinent to this topic but nevertheless great advise for this festive season.

Anyways, the entire point of the campaign is to promote “designated drivers”, to make sure that those guys and girls are not the losers of the evening. So you can download the pdf now to find out where the parties are happening and get smacking.
