This was written far too late last night and without the aid of eny environent to check syntax etc.

I'm now kicking myself with regards to starting the count at 100, not 99. The last verse should probably also use iMax as the suggested beer to buy quantity.

Oh, and the "1 bottles of beers" classic...
