‘Have a drink, have a drive’

Love this animation – it's a 10/10.
How, can anyone dislike this song??
1st line is, In the Summertime 'When The Weather Is Hot'.Seems like it should be 'High', since that rhymes with Sky. Good Video 🙂
What a song! My older brother told me this story about my Grandad during the 70's. He was at an all night poker game in the backroom of some South London cafe. He left the cafe about 9 o'clock the next morning the game had just finished, he walked out with 8 grand in his bag. This song was playing in the cafe as he left. Back then you could get a house for 2 or 3 grand, so you get the gist. And something funny he told my older brother about money….."they're just fun tokens" 😂 that will never ever leave me lol
