Buckets and Bouquets

Buckets to a radio station for failing to provide Friday night football results or a weather report with news at 7am and 8am Saturdays. It’s the same again on Sunday morning.
Joe, Norlane

Bouquets to Anthony and his staff at Cucina One 12 Restaurant for making my 80th birthday such a memorable occasion for my family, friends and I. The venue, hospitality, food and service were first-class.
Mack, Belmont

Bouquets to B & R Windscreens’ Matt for friendly, informative customer service and reasonable pricing. Support small business in Geelong.
Debbie, Newtown

Buckets to the organisers of a public transport meeting in Geelong. How do they expect us, especially the elderly, to arrive in Grovedale at 7pm without adequate public transport? They should have a second forum in the northern suburbs at a more-appropriate time so we can have a say too.
Shirley, Corio

Bouquets to Eyecare Plus Optometrists’ Carol, for whom nothing is too much trouble, even the tightening of a little screw on my sunglasses. It’s the best customer service in Geelong because they really do care.
Laurel, Highton

Bouquets to all the blood donors out there. I recently had surgery and needed blood. I can’t thank the donors enough.
Still Smiling, Torquay

Bouquets to Mr and Mrs Tito for finding my wallet on the ground after I dropped it at Hamlyn Heights. It’s so lovely to know honest, caring people are still around. I’m extremely grateful.
Jodie, Waurn Ponds

Bouquets to Dr Martin Schaap, Dr David Campbell, Barwon Health’s community palliative care nurses and their colleagues at the McKellar Centre for their care of our beloved husband, father and grandfather, Max. Their professionalism and empathy were outstanding. We are eternally grateful.
Max’s Family, Torquay
