SKIPPY FURIOUS WITH NT HEALTH

NEW YORK: Skippy is hopping mad over the NT Health Department’s cruel decision to hire notorious biffer , Boosh, the ugly boxing kangaroo , to clear the massive mob of wallabies from the Tindal RAAF base.

There are so many wallabies hopping about Tindal that it looks like a rabbit warren during Spring- time in the Rockies and aero medical flights are prevented from using the runway . With criticism mounting over the NT Government’s failure to solve the problem, the desperate Minister for Marsupial Birth Control, Don Scissorfinger, ordered the Health Department to call in Boosh to go the knuckle on the fecund wallabies before the next sitting of the Legislative Assembly . ( See previous post on this subject. )

As a result, a large number of wallabies have turned up at the new Katherine shopfront police station to complain about the brutal hit man from south. Little Darwin's Big Apple correspondent says Skippy is outraged that NT authorities adopted such a brutal and time wasting approach to the Tindal problem. A quicker and more humane solution was self evident : mass hypnotism .

The Tindal wallaby horde could be driven en masse – like lemmings-over the Katherine Gorge cliffs into the river- a la Jedda movie ending. Skippy told Little Darwin that he fled to America for hormone treatment at the Mayo Clinic after a documentary , quoting a giggling Aboriginal busker at Circular Quay , revealed to the macho Australian nation that our TV hero- Skippy- was actually a female !!!.

Thankfully, the miraculous Yankee medical treatment has dried up Skippy’s pouch and he now talks in a deep baritone like Wilson Tuckey . Next week, our crazy , mixed up national icon, Skippianna , aka Skippy , will play the gumleaf for President Obama , his family, and pet dog , in the White House rose garden.
