Mothers Ruin

Trouble brewing

Mothers ruin

Gin and tonic

Supersonic

Filled with ice

Oh and a slice

of lemon in

and round the rim

to give it flavour

Just the one?

Do me a favour!

There’s pink gin

Orange gin

Elderflower too

Plum, vanilla, Rhubarb

To name but a few

Gordon’s, Greenall’s and Whitley Neil

Beefeater, Hendrick’s

Gin’s the real deal!

So when you go to the pub

forget the beer they’re brewing

Ask for a large glass

Of Mother’s Ruin!!
