Only in London can you draw a picture of a monkey and get a whole bunch of whiskey goodies.
Yep. That’s right. The first week I got here, I was sitting at the Sunday Up market with Zak, waiting for Katie and there were these little cards sitting on our table that said “Draw the money and win Money Shoulder Whiskey!” I wasn’t really interested in the monkeys, or the whiskey, but moreso just killing some time. So I doodled away, and as we left, Zak and Katie convinced me to drop my submission in the box.
Cut to 3 weeks later. I’ve totally forgotten about it, and get a smam-looking email. But when I saw the words “monkey” and “drawing” in the subject line, it started to come back to me. Turns out, I was a finalist!! After a patient week of waiting, I finally got my goodies today!!
A t-shirt, a monkey moleskine with whiskey mixer recipes inside, a deck of cards, a keychain, some monkey cufflinks (wtf?), and most importantly, some monkey whiskey.
I love London.
