Bouquets to Rosie who was working at the entrance of Big W. I had been looking in vain for a pillow advertised on TV and she went out of her way to get me one, even bringing back two so I had a choice. Rosie gave good old-fashioned service.
June, Geelong West
Buckets to the short-sighted hypocrites criticising council’s decision to erect a floating Christmas tree on Corio Bay. Make sure you don’t take your kids to see it. Keep identifying yourselves with public comments so we can laugh at you on the waterfront this Christmas.
Making A List And Checking It Twice, Newtown
Bouquets to St Jude for prayers answered. This novena never fails. I am still praying.
Very Grateful, Geelong West
Bouquets to a kind gentleman who gave me change for parking when I was visiting a friend in Geelong Hospital. I left home in a rush without money and my card wouldn’t work in the ticket machine. I hope nice things come his way.
Felicia, East Geelong
Bouquets to Central Geelong Marketing for two holiday events we attended, Super Hero Party and Fairytale Cookbook. Not only were they free, they were well run and lots of fun for the children.
Gran Cheryl and Amelia, Herne Hill
Bouquets to special lady Jill for returning my wallet and its contents to my home.
John, Geelong
Bouquets to the person who found and handed in my car keys at South Geelong Railway Station. Not only did it save me huge inconvenience, it saved me $400 for replacement keys.
Absentminded Duffer, Belmont
Buckets to a football commentator for calling the Cats’ Harry Taylor a “big poofter”. Bouquets to the Cats for supporting marriage equality (Independent, 11 July). I know whose side I’m on.
Gay Cats Fan, Corio
Bouquets to the ladies at Ocean Grove’s Sunset Milk Bar for outstanding service. As a newcomer, I was unaware the shop existed until my grandsons wanted hot chips, which the shop cooked crispy in rice oil and with chicken salt to boot. It’s a delight heavens like this still exist.
