Monkey's Trumpet Creates Barmy Brass Storm

It's the most talked about brass instrument since Satchmo's and now even very high-up people are talking about Monkey Bill's trumpet... "The Barmy Army are ticket-paying, high-yield tourists, and should be allowed to sit together and should be given their trumpet back for subsequent tests" - Tourism Australia chairman Tim Fischer, a former deputy prime minister of Australia!

How funny is that. Go on Bill lampoon him with a quick burst!

Fischer was Deputy PM of Oz from 1996 and 1999 and "...was famous for his ability to mangle the English language with stilted grammar, using a few key phrases carrying his point before heading off in another direction entirely.". Any record of joint Pressa - Fischer press conferences from the late 1990s while Tony - I say to you - Blair, and John - Let them all drown - Howard were busy deciding what pizza to send New Zealand out for?
