ABSTRACT:
A device for delivering an audible message is described. It includes a housing adapted for releasable emplacement on an externally threaded bottle neck. The housing includes a substantially disc-shaped main body, and a downwardly depending skirt around the perimeter thereof. Circuit means are located within the housing and include means for securing thereto a source of electrical energy, and programmable means for encoding an audible message on the circuit means. A speaker is provided within the housing, electrically connected to the circuit means for delivering the audible message. Switch means are associated with the circuit means adapted to maintain the circuit in an open state whilst said housing is in releasable emplacement on a bottle, and to close the circuit upon removal of the housing from the bottle. Removable of the housing from the bottle causes the audible message to be delivered via the speaker.
