Who is Bruno Mars? $345 a ticket sound like the second coming to me!!!

In response to letter saying buy Australian made is a brilliant idea, except nothing is made or manufactur­ed in Australia anymore. Free Trade? We sell our gas, minerals, iron and coal. In return we get cheap plastics, flammable building cladding and sweat shop clothing. Not a good deal for us. Trump has the right idea. America first. Spot

My goodness what is the world coming to when I can't say thank you dear when I’m thankful to them for their service or a favour they have done for me like helping me out of my immobility scooter? What am I supposed to say “Thank you madam?” when they may be only teenagers as many are. James P McGuire.

What a joke these BSL protesters are, the swans have moved to the clean lakes nearby and replaced with smelly disease spreading Ibis feeding on the rubbish left by the protesters, how hilarious, ha ha ha.

I’m not a Greenie but I do know global warming causes climate change. Some dills think it should just be hotter everywhere.

’Ladies’, if the work dress code were to be followed, ie; skirts to knee, no midriff, long sleeves, buttons done up, no ’evening’ makeup, minimum jewellery, clean and tidy hair, closed in shoes, etc. The workplace would be much easier for everyone, to simply be, a ’workplace’. - Queenie

Re: Aussies are up themselves. I work for a cleaning company at a Shopping Centre. All of my work colleagues are Aussies, except for one. People are very surprised, of what our actual hourly rate of pay is, considerin­g of what we clean. Vomit, faeces and whatever else the public decide to leave behind. And some say why do we do it, I just tell them, it’s better than the dole. Jay.

Every time that there is a cold snap, the head in the ground mob have a go at the global warming believers, but when we do have a heatwave, they are very quiet. Bunch of ignorant hypocrites. Luigi

No wonder teaching applicatio­ns are falling. Who wants to run the risk of being accused of harassment by some dissatisfi­ed student even if it’s found to be false, the damage has been done. Barney

Why is TransLink running empty buses down Old Burleigh Road ruining the lives of so many people with these noisy smoke billowing buses

running every 10 to 20 minutes when there is a perfectly good light rail 200 metres away? What a complete waste of taxpayers money. No doubt another political agenda.

To the fellow that advertised the GC 150 job vacancies. You forgot to tell us what kind of jobs they were. Telemarket­ing/sales . perhaps?

Had tickets for swimming trials Saturday morning. So many thousands of dollars spent on ’security’ fencing that goes for miles around the venue but not one cent spent on shade or shelter. Sitting there in 38 degrees blistering heat sun blazing down was ridiculous. I hope they have lots of medics on hand for the heat stroke come the games. There are too many vacant shops on the GC and this is not the commercial ’look’ we want during the games. Greedy landlords, bring your rents down, so small businesses can get a start. Tourism Reliant Business, GC.

The genuine carers of BSL condemn any violence to animals or humans if reported threat to GCTC has any substance. Kindness

Could the ratbags jumping on the bandwagon of the BSL issue please calm it if reports of threatenin­g violence are true. Not helpful

Plaudits to the lady in her 70s regarding drunken females not taking responsibi­lity for their actions when in a compromisi­ng position with an equally drunk male. I also, am in my 70s and totally agree with her. A male will always be after sex. It’s up to the female to act responsibl­y and have respect for herself.

I worked as a Public Areas Cleaner for 5 years in 4 1/2 and 5 star resorts and got a double hernia for my efforts. Pull your head in, Aussie hater.

Why is the ’Sisterhood’ so very quiet regarding Barnaby’s bonking buddy? Come on, what’s good for the goose .....

A great big thank you to the lady who handed my handbag into Woolworths customer service after I left it in the trolley in the car park at Nerang Mall on Sunday. I would have liked to thank you in person but you did not leave your contact informatio­n. Robyn
