THE THUMBS

Thumbs Up and thank you to the lovely lady and gentleman who came to my rescue when I had a car accident on Saturday evening, your care and kindness were appreciated.

Thumbs Up to Mackena from Dubbo Photo News, who assisted with arranging an ambulance for our elderly family member who had fallen over. Thank you, Mackena, for being so kind and helpful in our time of need.

Thumbs Up to NSW Service Dubbo for outstanding service to the public, especially to Emma Carter.

Thumbs Up and a big thank you to Pat at Axxis Technology for her expertise.

Thumbs Up and congratulations to the Taizé team for the fantastic day on Saturday, your efforts were appreciated. Well done.

Thumbs Down to Telstra and Optus for both having horrible call centre service. It’s like voting Liberal or Labor, they’re both as shocking as each other, yet there’s no other realistic option in rural areas.

Thumbs Up to Sherrie at Petrie’s Mitre 10 Dubbo. She was just a tremendous help with trolleys and plants.

Thumbs Down to the oil corporations killing our weekly budgets by extorting us with high fuel costs.

Thumbs Up to the box office staff at Dubbo Regional Theatre who are always so pleasant and cooperative with bookings.

Thumbs Up to Dubbo Meat and Seafood Centre (DMC) – the checkout staff and the ones who take parcels out to my car are so pleasant and helpful.

Thumbs Up for Technician Kim at Lumus Imaging (formally Orana Radiology) for being very patient with elderly people who need extra care.

Thumbs Up to your team at Dubbo Photo News for doing so much to highlight the importance of buying local, and thereby supporting local jobs and families.

Thumbs Down to wars that kill and injure innocent adults and children. Don’t buy items from Russia like vodka.

Thumbs Up to Matt and his team at Forever Electrical. I got a quote from them and in no time they came around and had the job done expertly. The team were so polite, all the young men are great at what they did and were so nice to us throughout the whole process. By the time they were gone it was like they weren’t even there aside from the electricity being back up and running.

Thumbs Up to the kind lady who offered to help me at the Macquarie/erskine Street traffic lights when I broke down in the turning lane recently and another Thumbs Up to the two police officers who showed up at just the right time to push me across the intersection and out of everyone’s way. Thank you.

Thumbs Up to all the wonderful volunteers in our city who keep so many things, which help so many people, running smoothly.
