- Description
Shows a backyard barbeque party where the funnel of the frigate Wellington 'F69 RNZN' is sitting on top of a car. Shows drunk people in the backyard, some people passed out and drinking from the large beer 'funnel', and another man with a pump next to the car. Two men are beside a barbeque and looking at the next door neighbour who has rocketed out of the roof of his house with a beer in hand. One of the men comments "There goes the bloke who got the torpedo firing unit." Refers to the sale of parts from the decommissioned ex-Royal Navy frigate HMNZS Wellington (F69).
