Buckets & Bouquets

Bouquets to Joe and another guy who came to help me out when my car broke down near the top of a hill on the Bellarine Hwy. Bouquets also to a lady who came to help. I was embarrassed but very grateful.
Rose, Leopold

Bouquets to a stranger who paid for my groceries at Woolies Corio on 23 May. What a lovely surprise! You left with your juice before I could thank you.
Happy Shopper, Corio

Buckets to a councillor for inadequately informing us of a proposed chemical plant. Was anything about it in the local papers before the approval was signed off? Why must it be so close to our homes? The manufacturer should produce the products in its own country.
Lung Cancer Survivor, Lara

Bouquets to a man who came to my aid in a Waurn Ponds Shopping Centre car park on 3 June. I finally found my car, thank you.
Getz Lady, Highton

Buckets to a public servant who conducts inspections in the Newtown area for harassing and loudly shouting at an elderly pensioner. The victim is now extremely ill as a result of the bullying. The conduct was disgraceful.
RT, Belmont

Bouquets to a beautiful Highton lady for taking me to my destination in her four-wheel-drive. I was ill, stressed and had panicked.
Tilley, Geelong West

Buckets to a rude, surly team member who is obviously unhappy in her customer service job at a large, recently opened chain store. If you don’t like your job I will happily take it off your hands.
Another Store For Me, Grovedale

Buckets to selfish dog owners who let their pets poo on Mt Pleasant Rd, right outside Montpellier Primary School where children walk. A trail of stepped-in poo is constantly present. It’s just disgusting. Pick it up.
Alicia, Highton

Bouquets to Andrew for changing an older lady’s flat tyre near the railway station in peak traffic on 28 May.
Heather, Colac
