MANANA IN MYER AND MONEY LAND

While the Chief Minister and Fisheries/Health/ Primary Industries / Easter Egg Juggler Kon Vatskalis were giving people indigestion by announcing in the Casuarina Square food hall that Myer would be opening in Darwin in 2016, across the road there was the usual Banana Republic scene at the banking precinct. Fallen fronds from palm trees caused obstacles for customers . The same offensive stains were on the footpath outside the Westpac entrance and inside CEO Gail Kelly had obviously failed to INSTRUCT her Darwin staff to rectify the shabby branch office appearance by the outlay of less than a couple of grand . Litter piled up near the Commonwealth ATM accumulated over a long period of time could well go up in flames during the next six months of fireworks.
