Sister cities?

Since “President” Stanhope is so keen on saving the Greek and Turkish Cypriots from one another, how long before Nicosia becomes a Sister City?

Queanbeyan?

Typical of the over correction of “sexism” … where’s my fkn brother city?!

If ratepayers knew there were periodic junkets to Versaille by municipal clerks, then there would be outrage. So of course they don’t advertise the linkage (if there is one? who knows? who ever will?)

You could FOI it if you’re really hard up for thrills.

What happened to the parantheses around one of the ‘n’s in Ngun(n)awal? Looks like the Waradjiri cousins won out!

When I visited Nara recently, there didn’t seem to be any reciprocal signage there – I should have brought my own sign and planted it.

Do the new signs have sideways writing, per the current fad? (I haven ‘t seen these ones yet, but I’m getting a sore neck reading all the other new sideways signs! I suppose they thought it was cool and arty to do this??)

Favouritism – it happens in so many families.

*sigh*

Obviously Beijing, Nara and Dili are the favourites. Atlanta is not so cute now that she is older, Versailles has blackened the good family name and poor little San Francisco was an unwanted accident.

The main benefit is the provision of junket opportunities to civic leaders.

But it also gives schools the chance to run inane activities.
