Robyn Ritchie from newsXpress Whittlesea this morning delivered the newspapers for the first time. Their regular driver has relocated following the loss of his home in the bushfires. Robyn and one of her girlfriends hit the road early and tried their hand at the whole newspaper throwing thing. She said the only complaint they are likely to get is about the noise they made as they laughed their way through the round.
I bet lots of newsagents can recall the first time they threw a newspaper. It’s a good thing to reminisce about. Up at Whittlesea things are a bit different thanks to the considerable challenges brought about by the fires. It is inspiring that Robyn and Neil are finding some laughter amid those challenges.
