Palmerston North rubbishes Cleese

Now here's a funny story from my home town of Palmerston North:

You may remember that John Cleese did a tour of NZ last year. When he was in Palmerston North he said the city was so miserable depressed people would find the courage to end it all there. "If you wish to kill yourself but lack the courage...I think a visit to Palmerston North will do the trick."

I think what he said about Palmerston North is so funny, and quite accurate really!! But now the Palmerston North City Council finally has a comeback. They have named a mountain of rubbish after John Cleese. Oh, well done Palmerston North, that will really ruin his reputation - NOT!
