Fruit Free State

Damn government, it just can't get anything right.

Plans to implement random roadblocks in a bid to intercept motorists carrying fruit into the Sunraysia area have been delayed.

The roadblocks will not be in place for the current school holidays, despite the Mildura Country Music Festival attracting thousands of visitors moving into the area from fruit fly hot-spots.


So please, interstaters - when you're travelling interstate and need some refreshment, stick to chocolate, beer, or hallucinogenics. Keep the fruit in your own damn state.

UPDATE:
On second thoughts, stay away from the hallucinogenics. You'll start dreaming about bugs, which are just as bad as fruit flys. Stick to the safer alternatives, like snorting crack.

  1. Oooh, stories of ilicit products being smuggled in over the borders! Do tell!

    One of these days, I plan to get myself a real live shrunken head. How much would I have to bribe the border guards to get that into Australia?

    ...Turns out that he had a whole bunch of rare birds eggs resting within the lining of the coat, and because of the warmth they started hatching ...

    The guy managed to get 30 hot chicky babes under his coat? Well damn, some guys have all the fun.

    Okay, okay, I'm an idiot.
