WHO GOT THE IPAD ,THE PAPER CLIPS AND THE KEY TO THE EXECUTIVE LOO ?

Far from Darwin’s stormy and polluted waters , former Darwin Port Corporation CEO,Robert Ritchie, reportedly played corporate golf in Tennant Creek at the weekend . Soon he will be off to Perth for a round of conferencing , come back for a spot of leave and then take off on a six week tour of Europe .


Ritchie called DPC staff into the boardroom and firmly stated he was not being dumped as reported by the media ,that he was moving into the Chief Minister’s Department to carry out vital infrastructure work –before setting sail at the end of May.


Little Darwin has been informed that there were no tears, no expressions of regret, no renting of sackcloth by those assembled.However,the DPC corporate services manager, Melissa Reiter , with an admirable attitude when it comes to recycling and thus keen to salvage some of the flotsam and jetsam, asked if she could have his IPAD. Ritchie did not reply immediately to her request.
