OK, Terry! I'll take a couple of months of that
Gardeners Delight. Bootleg daylight....now
there's a sharp idea.

The daylight we offer comes in three categories:
1) Farm daylight. This is the lowest grade and is
sufficient to allow
farmers to see well enough to work their paddocks
(fields) at night
but don't expect sunburn!
2) Gardeners daylight. Much brighter and warmer.
This is just the
sort of stuff to hasten the onset of spring. Using
this will enable some
folk to have roses flowering before the neighbours
crocuses are up!
3) City folks daylight. This is by far the
strongest and can
penetrate concrete walls and the darkest of sun
glasses. Suitable for
a grade yuppies who want a *real* all over tan
Prices available on application. Delivery via the
Internet (at the
speed of light)"
