Buckets & bouquets

By Editorial

BUCKETS to the person who vomited on one side of my little red car while it was outside my garage for sale on 24 August. It was a disgusting thing to do to a pensioner. I hope someone does the same to someone in your family.
Irate Pensioner, Ocean Grove

BOUQUETS to Barwon Solar’s Renee and Stephen for making the purchase of our solar system so easy with their patience, courtesy, transparency and follow-up service. The fact their quote was the cheapest was a bonus.
Nicci Wall, Corio

BOUQUETS to lovely female dentists at Shannon Avenue Dental Care for their care and professionalism.
Tooth Fixed, East Geelong

BUCKETS to a political wannabe for giving out misleading information. If you want to represent the people of this electorate you should demonstrate honesty or at least get your facts right.
Voter, Grovedale

BOUQUETS to Awesome Playgrounds for going out of its way after we changed our mind, making sure we received what we wanted at a great price. Our kids will love their new cubby house.
Indecisive, Lara

BOUQUETS to the person who found my dog’s collar, with tags attached, and left it hanging on my gate post. You must have known where Mojo lives to have been able to find our house, so thank you, our mystery benefactor.
Mojo’s Mum, Highton

BUCKETS to a neighbour who leaves a loud V8 vehicle rumbling in his driveway for extended periods before leaving for work early in the morning. Some of us are still trying to sleep, so show some courtesy. At least you could save petrol.
Shut Up, Belmont

BOUQUETS to a young couple who helped mum after a fall at Ocean Grove on the weekend. Thanks for waiting until I arrived. I’m sorry I forgot to ask your names. Mum’s fine now.
Daughter, Waurn Ponds
