Reputation: Reputation Power: 9 | WTF is Christine? The Mayor or something?  The writer for the Gympie Times is a bit of a twit. "...their opinion of their adopted home is enough to squash Paul McDermott’s narrow view of our city and have him running for cover." Um, yes, if you consider tossing more "insults" on the bonfire to be "running for cover"?  That's HI-larious! | ||

Reputation: Reputation Power: 9 | Ohhhh, I'd just take him around the town and get him a coffee and a ride on the steam train and show him the sights and then TAKE HIM FOR A ROLL IN THE HAY! Even the name of the town is funny, what do they expect? | ||

Reputation: Reputation Power: 3 | Just my luck that my computer speakers chose this weekend to stop working (and I don't know why!). Got no idea what Paul said in the interview but I can just imagine... Liked the dig in the Gympie Times about "southern entertainer". A couple of years ago I spent four months working in the NT and was better known as "The Southerner" rather than my name! Just a thought, Paul's not going anywhere near Gympie in February, is he? Could you imagine it? A bean-picking showdown in Gympie's main street! | ||

Reputation: Reputation Power: 5  | I've been to Gympie, it's the town that saved Queensland after all. *puts on historial voice* back in 1889, Brisbane was building it's parliment house, only to find themselves a few thousand dollars short, so the search was on for gold to make up the costs, and gympie was the place were the gold was found. ahem *clears voice* Paul likes to stir up queensland doens't here  what have we done to piss him off? | ||

Reputation: Reputation Power: 3 | I'm glad the Gympie Times have done their homework.... "Television host McDermott first raised the ire of local residents and tourist operators when he bagged Gympie during episodes of the recent reality TV dancing competition Strictly Ballroom." and as for Christine... wtf?? she can't be real.. can she??  | ||

Reputation: Reputation Power: 4 | Aaaah Gympie home of backpacker murders. Why do it Ivan style (remember kiddies he did his killin' just down the road from there), all that bloody work, fetching and carrying - lure them to one spot and torch the joint. As for dumbarse Sydney expats - yeah the cheap a chips bullshit came through for me as well, "he probably hasn't been here" - quote not a real quote, just my angle of a quote. He's been everywhere man!!! And Cooloolah is not fucking Gympe - Cooloolah is north coast for I can't afford to live at say Noosa, Mooloolaba, Marroochydore, or even a shit hole like Caloundra, but hey Martha, there's them big grassy bits of land way out over there. Drove out there once meself lookin' for land, left that cosy little Hastings Street and drove and drove and drove and when I finally got there I looked around and thought, fucking 'ell, this is too bloody far and the land looks like shite. Gympie is a small country town you drive through and say "oh look at all the historical buildings and that one new hostel." You don't stop in Gympie - not even at the Matilda Servo outside of Gympie......I told you not to stop, bwahhhhhhhhaaaaa." | ||

Reputation: Reputation Power: 3 | Oh, no, Gympie's the halfway mark for Brisbane to Hervey Bay. Having said that, the only thing we stopped in Gympie for is to feed the turtles then fuck off up north again (and the Matilda :p). Did some horse competitions up there... Gympie people are fine, it's the ones who live just outside Gympie you have to look out for  That article seems a bit self-serving though. I swear someone's tweaked the primary school kid's quote. "I really love it here! They have an eco-garden! Yeah!" | ||
