MANGO MADNESS OUTBREAK IN FOUNTAIN

 For some strange reason , the  fountain  in Townsville's Anzac Memorial Park  ,marking   Queensland  breaking away from the colonial yoke of New South  Wales , has  turned into  what  appears to be  a pop up juice  dispenser . Instead of  squirting  clear  water , it  now  sprays  what could be mistaken for a  mixture  of  thirst  quenching   tropical  drinks. We  hasten to warn  that  no  one should  drink  from  the  fountain .

                

Puzzled groups of people  were seen  walking about the technicolour fountain when our  Shipping Reporter went  through  on  his way to Molly  Malone's Irish Bar.

The Shipping Reporter   was  delighted to see  that  the  city's Victory in the Pacific Fountain   seemed to be working , with very little rubbish  within    However,  there  appeared to  be  a  blob  of   bat droppings  on the seat  in the nearby bus shelter .  And  a   steamy pair  of  grotty , pre-loved jocks , with  attendant  photogenic  blowfly , below ,  added  to  the  exotic  tourist attractions . There was also a discarded shirt  nearby . Not so long ago, there appeared to be a pyjama top hanging in the bus shelter, with banana peels on the seat .
