CHATROOM

Guy that shot cop dead gets his just deserts but is yet another example of bail/parole not working, causing a young decent family to lose their spouse. – Dad Robert Negotiating with a killer! He killed a police officer. What is this country coming to? – Broadwater Boy When will they get more police to the airport, what happened the other day was a joke, as other passengers had to restrain this idiot and wait 5 mins for security to arrive, well done to the golfers who helped Hey if you don’t like any of the big 4 banks or are con- cerned how they are going to pass on their new tax, try customer-owned banking. Yes Credit Unions. Service with a smile and locally owned. Any truth in the rumour that the council is going to pump sand from behind the surf break from Main Beach to Miami, in preparation for the Com Games? Car rego 8 years ago $300 now $900. Have wages gone up accordingly? No way. T.Z Does anyone see the irony that the people writing about the Schapelle Corby saga are the ones complaining about the Corby saga? – Dubya All you critics of Corby. Must be wonderful leading those perfect lives while sitting in your ivory towers. All the media is looking in the wrong place for Schapelle. She is at my place having a few beers, BBQ and having fun in Nerang. Opps … Choppa! Congratulations to the Stop the Gold Coast Quarry committee and Mayor Tom Tate and GCCC for unanimously opposing the environmentally devastating quarry that Boral wanted to impose on the Tallebudgera green space. Boral should accept the court’s decision and sell the green space for appropriate environmental use.– VJ Really going to do it this time. Home phone getting cut off. Mw Most of the money spent by cruise ship passengers is on their fare which includes all meals plus on-board duty free shops including liquor. They tend to spend very little on shore for the same thing that they have already paid for. – Barney CST - another white elephant. Why will ships refuel here when there is fuel readily available for the refineries near the new mega terminal in Brisbane? The extra cost to transport the fuel here will be prohibitive. The terminal will also be exposed to strong winds with no protection. Wake up Tom. Saw the Foreign Minister Julie Bishop in Parliament during question time, I thought that it was strange she was there and not flying around the world giving away borrowed money. – GT Who’s responsible for the seating at Pete’s Fish Shop, owner or council? This is a big tourist spot but the seats have not been painted in 20 years and one by the water has been broken for months. Bermuda Rd looking too much like the GC Hwy. Too many sets of traffic lights. I’ve enjoyed watching the War On Waste on ABC. I’ve learned take away coffee cups are not recyclable, so cafes please step up and offer a discount to BYO cup. Good for the pocket, good for the war on our waste. Hey Ken if you don’t like all the entertainment on the GC you can go and live with Tom Ray in the sticks.
