Our man who keeps his powder dry, Alan Crichton, is back and this time he has set his sights on the well lubricated Alexander Fitzpatrick and his less than exemplary police record: www.ironoutlaw.com/keep-ya-powder-dry/entrapment-at-the-eleven-mile/
Impressive bottle and label design makes this a great collector's item. And yes, I actually bought this from their website. Although I must say in taste, NED's more whiskey (bourbon) than whisky (i.e. it's sweeter). #nedwhisky #nedkelly #drinkresponsibily
I wonder if there was any mention of the Queen's personal involvement in the removal of an elected Federal Government? #1975Dismissal #KerrsKerr #PalaceLetters #GoughWhitlam #WitchQueen #AustralianRepublic

The inaccuracies in Rebecca Wilson's book 'Kate Kelly' have caused quite a bit of consternation particularly around her unfounded claim that Kate and Constable Fitzpatrick were the parents of Alice King, the baby Ellen Kelly took to the Beechworth then Melbourne Gaols. To read what Kate's descendant Ellen Hollow has to say, and to view a timeline of the events by Mick Fitzsimons, jump over to our Feedback section on the Ironoutlaw website...![]()

The rumours are true, Alan Crichton and 'Keep Ya Powder Dry' are back! After surviving a horrific fall into a vat of red wine where he valiantly fought off his rescuers for over four hours, Alan eventually succumbed to dehydration (after drinking the said vat dry) and was magnanimously hauled into rehabilitation where he has spent the past twelve months. On release Alan headed straight to his local Chiltern IGA where he bought out their entire stock of liquor (even the vanilla essence). Back to his witty self, Big Al has put quill to parchment and pumped out his latest instalment of 'Keep Ya Powder Dry'. You can check out his mad ramblings via the link below:![]()
