A full grown adult male has today been accused of some rather juvenile behaviour.

Angus Broderick, a 35-year-old from Betoota Heights did so last night while enjoying a nice Sunday roast with some friends.

Having a few people over for a low-key little dinner to catch up, Angus and his better half allegedly put on quite a spread.

With a large chunk of local Betoota Valley Lamb virtually falling apart courtesy of a patient 6 hour slow roast, Angus’ friends marvelled at the beautiful piece of meat.

Complemented by a delicious potato bake and some parmesan baked broccolini, there was wide spread agreement that it doesn’t get much better on a rainy Sunday night.

However, that quorum of agreement was rudely shattered when big Gus decided to drown his beautiful cuts of lamb with giant blobs of mint jelly.

The man who also likes toothpaste ice-cream (ie mint choc chip) defended the bold action, by claiming ‘mint jelly is awesome.’

With a couple of other rogue guests also partaking in the desecration of a beautiful baby sheep – a heat debate ensued with some people genuinely arguing that mint jelly is yum.

Thankfully a conclusion was quickly reached with everyone agreeing that gravy and mint jelly should not be mixed.
