Dear Sinners: Even though it is evident you are an unGodly lot at Little Darwin , I want to thank you for relentlessly campaigning to have my badly faded portrait and Southern Cross constellation (Up the Eureka Stockade !) in sleepy Townsville restored ( above ) while the devilish local media and the faithful said nothing .
In my featureless , faded portrait (above) , I appeared absolutely spooky, the Southern Cross resembled anaemic glow worms or floating dandruff , looking down on the Queen and Football Mad City of the North , until you took up my cause . I wish all the odd crew in Little Darwin , especially the Shipping Reporter, a cool Yule and a frantic first. Try and repent in 2020 . Yours, etc., New Look Mary .
