It is not unusual in the Kimberley and NT to use helicopters when there is a dire emergency and this story should turn the NT News green with envy.
The NT News prides itself on the extent to which its readership will go in the pursuit of alcohol - after all, Darwin has considered itself the grog capital of the universe for a very long time.
On ANZAC Day in Kununurra, tourism group Skal and members' guests set out on a boat cruise up Lake Kununurra.
Coldies were being cracked even before the boat left the shore.
By the time the cruise was heading back, disaster was imminent - they were running out of grog.
Being tourism people, they were used to dealing with emergencies and quickly produced a satellite phone and called up Banjo, who made the emergency dash with cartons of beer and wine to Sandy Beach.
Dehydration was averted and the whole party returned safely to Kununurra.
There has been a suggestion that the club change its name to 'Scull'. |
