SURPRISE GIFT TO DARWIN PRESS CLUB


Death notice , NT News, March 14, 2012 , above , inserted by pollie ( wants a cracker), lays bare hidden plumage of famous local nudist.
*********************************************************
The will of pioneering Darwin nudist, political journalist Dick Muddimer, contains a shock for the city’s high flying reporters. He has left a rare collection of stuffed birds to the Darwin Press Club, a croc infested waterhole frequented by squawking Plovers . While most alert reporters knew Muddimer was a naturist, not one knew he was a noted ornithologist , like Sir David Attenborough , and had written the official guide to Territory twits. However, the MLA for Fannie Bay, Michael Gunner, said he knew all along that Dick was an ardent naturalist . People should have twigged when they saw Dick running about the Free Beach with a Swearing Cockatoo on one shoulder and a Little Whimbrel on the other . Gunner revealed another side of Muddimer -he was also a registered bird carer and nursed sick Dodos back to life in his Philip Street , Fannie Bay, nature reserve.
