A dramatic scene at a busy Townsville intersection made a big impact on the Queen of the Jungle . It has caused her to animatedly deliver details of the event over and over , giggle hysterically . She was a passenger in a bus which pulled up at a Ross River Road intersection when a woman was noticed waving a placard.
It read : JESUS IS COMING on one side , THE END IS NIGH on the other . Naturally , this caused the passengers to gape . But , dear sinners, there was more . Standing nearby was a voluptuous woman in black , with Wellington boots , tattoos.
The bus driver turned around and made a colourful comment . Townsville bus drivers are friendly folk, unlike the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse . There is none of this do not talk to the driver whilst bus is in motion.
An indication that Townsville's wicked past has caught up with it is the fact that at long last the clock on the heritage listed old post office building is finally working atop what is now a brewery . The clock had not worked for yonks ,which irked our Shipping Reporter ,saying it was like allowing Big Ben of London not to work for years, without anybody in authority caring . The fact that the town clock did no work was raised long ago by roving Pommie reporter, Tony Robinson , now Sir Tony, when he passed through Townsville making another interesting documentary .
