20 Sep 1995 | - Another
new
use
for
the
SMH.
At
5
am
yesterday,
reception
staff
at
the
Novotel
Sydney
at
Darling
Harbour
saw
a
nude
man
holding
that
day's
Herald
strategically
in
front
of
him
coming
up
the
escalator
from
the
ground
floor.
He
sashayed
over
to
the
desk
and
told
his
story
-
he'd
been
locked
out
of
his
room,
so
he'd
picked
up
a
copy
of
the
Herald
from
the
hall
and
walked
down
the
fire
stairs.
The
first
exit
was
the
ground
floor,
so
he
calmly
walked
out,
then
up
the
escalator
to
the
first
floor
reception.
Issued
with
a
new
key
by
straight-faced
staff,
he
went
back
to
his
room,
we
hope
to
read
his
paper.
Luckily
it
was
not
Another
Newspaper,
which,
as
a
tabloid,
would
have
provided
only
half
the
cover.
