A brand new Northern Territory flag has recently been raised at the
Darwin Casino and , according to our
learned vexillologist, who regularly tries to
beat the pokies, it is flying the
right way-
not upside down , as it has on many occasions.
At sea, a flag upside down is a
sign of distress, indicating
loss of propulsion,
yellow fever ,
cholera , sweaty crew badly in need of a
Royal Navy shower ... a quick dust down with talcum powder before you go ashore and mix with the female voters .
