Caption contest

They're de rigueur, these invitations to lavishly praise or mercilessly mock our public figures. I usually take advantage of the opportunity on other blogs, so feel I should offer up the chance to have a go here. If I have any followers still interested in this blog and if they would like a chance to show the cut of their jib, now's your chance.
The occasion of this photo was John Key's visit to Invercargill this week, where he nagged everyone he met for gifts of oysters. The most distasteful aspect of the story to me, is the fact that Key likes them cooked and encased in batter! Barbarian!
In this photo, Eric 'Photo Op' Roy presents an oyster-opening knife to His Lordship.
Go nuts.

"And if you do see Guyton while you're out and about in Invers John, use this!"

It's the key to the city, John.

When Brash makes his move to oust you - slip the knife between his ribs and twist.

This is for when you want to lay it on real thick.

It's one of the old scalpels we used on the welfare system last time we were in boss. Don't worry. We've got new ones sharpened up for this next round.

Just slide the sharp end into a poor persons wallet and flip it open they will never feel a thing.

It's not a caption Rob; I just have to say thaqt I agree with you wholeheartedly re battered oysters; raw, with a drop of lemon, and swallowed whole is the go.

Well, that gets you out of the 'barbarian' category Invent. For myself, I like oysters to be on the sea-floor.
It's a benthic thing.
