World's biggest bookmark* unveiled in Civic Square

They got in touch with Guinness world records who basically said if you want to classify it as a world record you have to pay for someone to come and check everything. They didn’t have the funding.

All that and it ends up just being “Canberra’s biggest bookmark”!

what, has dapto a bigger one?

If it’s downgraded to only the Northside’s biggest, expect angry scenes involving needles and a fleet of very slow four cylinder cars ramming things.

But can you see it from the moon?

There are Martians looking through telescopes at what they think are canals as we speak…

But can you see it from the moon?

And to think people here used to disparage it as “the world’s biggest useless thing.”

Any sign of the book?

The matching book has been postponed due to printing cuts in the public service:

Could also double as a massive scarf?

You should see the book it was made for.
