"Here is my version of the Monkey Magic drinking game, for those of you who are lucky enough to find a couple of episodes. At this point I'd better include a disclaimer: this game is not intended for playing using alcoholic beverages. It is strictly for nostalgic fun.
I would really like the feedback that you have to give me or any suggestions that you might like to make. I don't know of any other Monkey drinking games, so please enlighten me if you have found another one.
It is probably best if you pick one character and drink along to that. Trying the whole lot would be hazardous to your health (especially if you're drinking Sydney's water)
Happy drinking (of non-alcoholic beveridges of course)!"
If you know of any other Monkey drinking games, or if you have any suggestions for this one, please either contact Cecilia (mahna@hotmail.com), or contact me using the Monkey Feedback page.
