KS at Loose Change has a good eye for the amusing and ironic, and has spotted that Queensland Treasury Corporation’s investment guide includes a map identifying Brisbane, the Gold Coast and Cairns, but not Townsville:
I’ve previously posted on the amusing debate around whether Cairns or Townsville is the capital of the non-existent State of North Queensland:
Is Townsville or Cairns the capital of North Queensland?
I share KS’s surprise that the Cairns Post and Townsville Bulletin haven’t picked this up yet.
That is hilarious. Townsville residents will not be pleased.
My favourite was just a few years ago when the Cairns Post ran a front page campaign because Townsville had a big Christmas tree in the CBD which shamed our council into a competitive response. Never again will Cairns be without a big Christmas tree! š
