The Lancashire Hotpots – The Beer Olympics
17 July 2012 | aaamusicWith less than two weeks until the Olympics start, this song is brilliantly fitting. The entire song is about making beer an Olympic sport – something that would work out well for Great Britain, I’m sure. The Lancashire Hotpots … Read More
