Mirror, mirror on
the wall... which country
has
the most romantic
politicians of them
all ? The answer to this stupid
question , inquisitive One-Eyed Person ,
is undoubtedly Australia
. Love is in the air and other more comfortable locations among true
blue Coalition
types in various parts
of the nation . It is pleasing to see so many Tory politicians support holy wedlock
by frequently gathering
at weddings to shower happy
couples with confetti and long grain
rice , tie Imelda Marcos old boots and empty caviar
cans to their gilded carriages.
Witness the Sophie Mirabella wedding, attended
by prominent
Tories and the ghost of Uncle
Tom Cobley. Then there was the case of the
shock
jock who attracted
back slapping pollies
like bees to nectar.
In
Queensland , medicos
report a surfeit
of banana smoothies , sun and
surf
turns many locals , including the odd polly or two, into romantic
chasps after a platter of Balmain Bugs , a pile of tinnies, some Bundy , a carafe of
plonk . With so much
pent up passion
in Qld , it is not surprising to learn
that there is a chain of adult shops in
that state , trading as Cupid’s Cabin , catering for
those keen on a bit of slap and tickle, offering lubes , vibrators , DVDs, lingerie , costumes , mags , etc.
One
such Cupid’s
Cabin
shop is in a curious threesome
in
Townville , in Nathan Street , Aitkenvale . It is next to Townsville Wedding
Flowers and Design .
A reasonable
grouping – after all , Cupid
and weddings
go together , like a horse
and carriage , in the words of a once
popular tune sung by
wholesome Doris Day , married four times . But the next shop has caused a few
wry comments about the Newman Government and what it is doing to the state as it is the electorate office of the Member for Mundingburra, Liberal National Party Minister for Local Government , Community Recovery and Resilience , David Crisafulli . David , a former journo and
Deputy Mayor of Townsville
City Council
,
is happily
married and loves to stroll along the banks of the Ross River with his family , according
to his webpage . It is sincerely hoped that none of those awful mossies give him a love bite on those walks , resulting in him developing Ross River Fever.
