Buckets & Bouquets

BOUQUETS to Geelong Removals. As a voluntary support person, I want to thank Geelong Removals for helping me after someone badly let me down. Kindness has a snowball effect. Well done to Lyn and Adam.
Milly Molly Mandy, Geelong West

BOUQUETS to North Geelong Glass for its effective work after giving me a quote and fixing my glass for a reasonable price and within a week. I highly recommend it for any glass needs.
Happy Customer, Bell Post Hill

BOUQUETS to Kerrie, Glenda and Jess, the most caring, hard-working vet nurses at Leopold Pet Hospital. They are always caring, considerate and helpful, even when handling several patients and their owners, answering the phone and accepting lost dogs simultaneously. These ladies deserve pay rises.
Marg, Ocean Grove

BUCKETS to dog walkers who let their pets bark and growl before sunrise outside the homes of shift workers. Some of us are trying to sleep while you’re out having fun with your noisy pets. If you can’t silence your stupid dogs, at least walk them away from homes.
Woken Too Early, Highton

BOUQUETS to Myers Family Medical Practice receptionist Bec. Her warm, friendly and welcoming manner is like a breath of fresh air. Her conscientious work ethic is appreciated.
Patient Patient, Herne Hill

BUCKETS to Tosser (Buckets & Bouquets, 14 November). I certainly did not “mouth off back” at my Facebook troll. I have more class than that, unlike you. I used the paper instead.
You’re A Knob, Geelong West

BOUQUETS to University Hospital Geelong emergency staff for their professionalism and caring response when treating my husband this week. We could not have asked for better treatment.
Impressed And Grateful, Belmont

BOUQUETS to food distribution company PFD and Signature Foundation of Geelong for their assistance in donating goods toward my fundraising quest for The Cure Brain Cancer Foundation by way of Christmas plum puddings.
Robert, Belmont

BOUQUETS to Lions Club of Corio/Norlane, Alkira Ave opportunity shop’s Anne, family, friends and others who helped with and attended a trivia and silent auction night. We raised $2800 for Cambodia’s The Heart and Love Centre. The money will renew the centre’s 12-month lease.
Helen, Bell Park
