Midst the bustling pre-Christmas popular weekend Parap Market in Darwin , with its Cambodian , Vietnamese , Indonesian , Thai and Malaysian tucker , fruit and veg, Laksa soups , assorted drinks , vanilla slices , recycled inner tubes , trinkets , jewellery , massages , two anti-fracking stalls and prints , a small book stand was spotted . It displayed several interesting volumes, the titles, it was explained, were ones which budding authors would like to write , even about themselves . On opening the books , it was found all the pages were blank . An ideal Christmas gift , it was suggested .
No fear of flying to and from New Zealand evident in a bill for the Lano and Woodley FLY show about pioneers of flight posted to the door of the Chief Minister's office in Parap about which the market swirls , due to an ATM machine nearby . A poster offering a reward of $1000 for a missing dog was sighted during a Little Darwin visit to the market , along with a rusty crocodile.
