THE THUMBS
Thumbs up
and a massive thanks to our local firies – both the local town brigade and the Rural Fire brigades – who attended a fire last week at a property alongside the river. The fire was luckily reported by an observant neighbour and brigades were there in no time at all to contain and extinguish the fire. The guys and girls are a special breed and were efficient and caring for the safety of all. Please support them whenever you can. Thumbs Up just doesn’t seem enough.

Thumbs up to Leven Smash Repairs Dubbo. Fantastic service, job well done and very helpful, friendly staff. Thank you.
Thumbs down
to Dubbo Taxi Service which left me standing on the side of the road for 35 minutes because the driver didn’t know that address. After a phone call back to them, the same address was given and the driver arrived in 12 minutes. Very inconvenient!

Thumbs up to the Leading Edge staff in Dubbo. The level of service I received recently was exceptional.
Thumbs up
to the two kind ladies who stopped and assisted my partner when he had a fall near Boundary Road shops on Tuesday, July 17. Thank you for your help and kindness. Also thanks to the two young members of Dubbo Police who also helped and gave us a lift home as we were unable to walk back home due to my partner’s injured knees. It restores our faith in people.
Thumbs up to the young lady who helped an older gentleman make a phone call or two on her mobile phone in Palmer Street after he had a flat tyre, and then stayed with him until help arrived. Very much appreciated. A pat on the back to the younger generation of Dubbo.
Thumbs up
to Paul at JB Hi-fi in Orana Mall. He was a very attentive and patient salesman. We think he has the best customer service skills in Dubbo.
Thumbs up
to Mobile Travel Agent Sonya Hogan for her expertise in arranging holidays and simplifying everything that goes with it.
Thumbs down
to residents who throw their unwanted goods/garden refuse on the footpath, out of collection time, in the hope that they will be scavenged or Council will clean up. It is a terrible look for the city. Council, on your bike!

Thumbs down to those (often) young tradies who drive like idiots in their company vehicles. Is that an indication of their company’s management principles?
Thumbs up
to Don Crosby Veterinary Surgeons for their compassion during the hard time of saying goodbye to a beloved furry friend. It meant the world to me and made saying goodbye that little bit easier.
Thumbs up to Steve from the Wongarbon Shop. His contribution and commitment to the local community is remarkable and much appreciated.
Thumbs up to Morrisons Family Eye Care for their friendly and prompt customer service. They always go the extra mile to keep their customers happy.
Thumbs up to Rod at Scotts’ Parts Plus for his valuable assistance in acquiring car parts for us recently and having them delivered overnight. Just as importantly, Thumbs Up for Rod’s gentlemanly manner in serving us and making sure we had exactly what was needed. Thanks again Rod.
Thumbs up and thanks very much to Steve and Elaine at Northside Smash Repairs for their care and understanding when repairing our car recently. Steve’s generosity and his ability with the repairs is very greatly appreciated under difficult circumstances. It was a real pleasure to have such decent people to deal with within in our community.
Thumbs down
to poor-quality giveaway keyrings. It is too easy to lose your keys when they break.

Thumbs up to the organisers and volunteers of the 2018 Mount Arthur Challenge. It was a fantastic family day, well organised and fun for all ages. Well done!
Thumbs up
to the fabulous ladies at Home Sweet Home. Your customer service is brilliant, as is your attention to detail.
