A good story is being told regarding a Wanganui farmer who attended the recent Farmers’ Union Conference at Levin. The weather was particularly cold at the time and the farmer went to Levin fortified with a hot water bottle. Before retiring for the night, he took good care to put not too much hot water into the bottle, and to pour in also sufficient whisky so that the bottle answered the dual purpose of keeping both his feet and the inside of his stomach warm.
