PETA LOVES HER NEW DIRECTION

FOR five years Peta Downie had that “sand between her toes” feeling at Surfers Paradise Alliance. Now she has set up shop as the marketing manager for Oasis Shopping Centre and is working her magic for the retail sector. “It’s a different direction but I am loving it,” she said. “The first thing we are doing is having a quirky promotion with a reallife mermaid book reading commencing next Saturday outside the Cotton On mega store.” Who knew mermaids could read?
