Buckets and bouquets

BOUQUETS to Geelong East Men’s Shed for a second mini-DVD player cabinet created for me to exact measurements. The shed members are such friendly and obliging men.
Irene, East Geelong

BOUQUETS to the fantastic people who helped push my car off Wallington Rd after it broke down on 2 March. Bouquets also to the amazing family who drove me home. You restored my faith in human kindness.
Micky, Ocean Grove

BOUQUETS to Selina’s Hair Salon’s Selina for adjusting her appointments last Saturday morning and making sure my hair was cut and coloured in time for a surprise 60th birthday I attended. I was certainly made to feel special.
Happy Helen, Bell Post Hill

BOUQUETS to the staff at Barwon Health Newcomb, especially Anita, for all their concern and help. Bouquets also to the ambos and Geelong hospital emergency department staff, Professor John Amerena, my family and anyone else concerned with my recovery.
Kevin Baker, Whittington

BOUQUETS to City of Greater Geelong infrastructure management administration officer Michele Williams for sending me a letter on fencing suppliers, which I received in the post the day after speaking to her.
Krista, Newcomb

BUCKETS to all the smokers at Moorabool St’s bus stops. It seems that not only is smoking hazardous to your health, it also makes you stupid and ignorant. Apparently penalties do not apply.
Joy, Belmont

BUCKETS to the disgusting low-life who abused me for no reason when I returned to my car after filling up at Coles Express Norlane around 12.30pm on 19 March. Your finger at me and disgusting abuse were abhorrent and unwarranted. Other customers were in disbelief. Your mental issues need help.
What Goes Around, Corio

BOUQUETS to Bay FM’s Milly. I have regularly phoned the station about competitions over the years and been told to hang on but Milly talked to me, finding out my likes and dislikes so she could engage me in conversation on air. Nice touch, Milly.
Jenny, Highton

BOUQUETS to the wonderful girls and ladies at St Aloysius Primary School Queenscliff for their care after I collapsed. I feel much better. Thanks again and God bless.
Marj, Ocean Grove

BOUQUETS to Geelong West Neighbourhood House for organising an enjoyable community festival, WestFEST, with brilliant music, stalls, workshops, food and community spirit – and it was free.
West Is Best, Geelong West
