| Category: Games Watch With the Commonwealth Games coming to Melbourne early next year there are almost daily items in the press echoing concerns of the form: What will Games visitors think? This example is about Flinders Street station looking a bit shabby. It's looked shabby as long as I can remember but it seems Games visitors deserve better. This comment from a failure takes it right over the top: Failed lord mayoral candidate Gary Morgan said the station's decay "typifies Melbourne -- a city in decline which has lost its leadership in a world market".Me, I've been telling my children to finish their homework because we don't want Games visitors thinking Melbourne children are idiots. |
