Another (Thurs)day in paradise

I hate Thursdays up here, and if pictures tell a thousand words, you'll know why by the photo above.
Thursdays have traditionally been pension pay day, where everyone got paid, partied and drunk, usually within hours of the money being transferred to their bank account. Although Centrelink (Australia's social security agency) has tried to address the issue by paying people on different days of the week, Thursday still remains the biggest drinking day in the community.
With no permanent police presence, most people openly ignore the Intervention's prohibition laws, and by early afternoon, the community is littered with hundreds of green cans, red cans and wine casks.
The result creates a painfully predictable day to which you can almost set your clock to, from the time the grog gets in (10.30am), the fights begin (above; 2pm) and the police arrive (4pm). There's usually a brief interval from 5pm through about 8pm, with the remaining rounds continuing into the early hours of the next morning.
Just another (Thurs)day in paradise.
