The suffragette movement and how it all got started. It all began very sudden like.
Lang, Lang agan the brewers of Toon Ale decided to change the name to something mair touristy, because that’s the way the powers that be do things. Just when everything is cosy they decide to upset the apple cart. Well after months of deliberation they called it Comet Ale. They kept the sign of the Blazing comet so ivvory body would knaa it was the genuine article. As you know it was taboo for wimmen to sup of it, but they had their aan brew, which was called Toon Spirit. For years and years both men and wimmen war ower the moon with this arrangement. The women because it pleased them to have a brew specially made for them. Ye knaa a vanity kind of thing, and the men because it kept the wimmen folk quiet.
As I said before this arrangement went on for donkeys’ years until a lass called Cushy Butterfield decided women should be able to sup Toon Ale if they so desired. This set the men up in arms they barred Cushy out of ivvory inn and tavern in the city, but this just inflamed matters.
All the wimmen started talking saying Cushy was reet. So they stopped doing for their men. They even started to burn their shawls in the Market Square. It just seemed like ower neet aal the wimmen war banded together. Cushy Butterfield even chained hor sel to the railings of the moot hall shouting for the reet to sup Toon Ale. Well after a couple of weeks with no stottie sarnies the men left the name as it waas and gave in ti the wimmen.and that’s how the wimmins lib got a haad. The worst thing that had happened in Geordie land. Just look at the numbers of wimmen suppin Toon Ale To this very day.
