Forex issue
Colleague trying to send money in US dollars home through internet banking was told he would have to go and fill a form at the bank now. And the limit has been brought down from 25 grand to only five now. Something is certainly amiss in the state of our economy.
At last
Finally the K14 million New Zealand-funded market at Gordon in Port Moresby will be opened. A large sign outside says it will be opened on Thursday – almost 12 months after NZ prime minister Jacinda Ardern came to Port Moresby to view the site.
No toilets
There is no public convenience within sight for the thousands of people who mill around the temporary main bus stop at Unagi Oval in Port Moresby every day. Well, there are the two big brains on either side of the oval which seem too convenient to some when nature calls.
Torn pants
There were a few giggles among passengers in a Route 16 bus travelling to Gordon in Port Moresby when a gentleman who boarded at Erima and sat behind the driver facing the passengers had a slight “wardrobe malfunction”. Fortunately, it was only a short distance from Erima to the Gordon bus station.

Missy Kwin’s first-born pikinini is in Japan presumably to cheer on England and Wales in their World Cup campaigns. It cannot be confirmed however if he will be travelling down to NZ after that to cheer up the Kiwis.
