Have tried & tried to replicate good ol’ Saturday morning charity sausage & onion sanger at home to no avail. Concede defeat. Theirs are always better by far. Will chuck an extra 1 in the tin and save myself the trouble!

Walking thru Cabarita when young lad on skateboard came flying down the main road. No helmet, no method of stopping as he zigzagged through ped crossing & beyond. Other people also stood & stared shaking their heads in disbelief. Perhaps he had a death wish? Task

Why am I still hearing about farmers that are doing it tuff when millions upon millions of dollars were donated to help them out. Did the government tax that too. Kev Helensvale

It’s easy to understand what Australian state the intelligen­t people reside in by returning the LNP to power on Sat night, that makes NSW the most advanced state in the county, while Qld is now classed as the country’s most backward state caused by too many years under a Labor Gov. KenW

On Friday evening about 6pm. I was in the vicinity of Australia Fair. Feeling a little peckish I wandered around seeking a pizza shop. Every food outlet in the food court was closed. I smiled to myself as I thought: “Is this really the ideal place for a tourist shipping terminal? There was more life in Southport in the ’50s. No trams, but there was a small movie theatre & hamburgers galore. Sinbad

It took decades for government to act on shonky banks, domestic violence, child sex abuse, how long will it take to guard our hospital staff from grubs attacking them? Don’t hold ya breath if it’s anything like the former. Carey Park - what people see is only a small piece of grass. People just don’t know that there’s much more than that. They’re proposing to consume the Broadwater in total. Brighton Pde. is in the mention as well.

Craig Elliot. You lost to Geoff Provest in the NSW State election. The platform that you ran on was the relocation of the Tweed Hospital. The voters of the Tweed have now given a mandate. Could you please now work with the victor, and make this hospital happen on the chosen Cudgen site. Wayne

A question for the police. Instead of having 100 police officers breath testing at 10am in the morning, get them out on the road when the hoons are out. Also sit outside the pub car parks and test people coming

out of the pubs at night. Glyn

The best holiday letting house is the empty one – no excessive noise, no car doors slamming late at night, no swearing, no cars sprawled throughout the street, no annoying cackling noisy laughter from late night partying and excessive drinking! Until a councillor has one next door to them and they experience the crap side of these holiday party houses they will continue to saturate our suburbs like a disease. They are ruining lives of local residents who just want to live in a peaceful street!

Totally agree with Ken Wade re Turkish President’s words & bravo to Gold Coast Bulletin for printing it! Km

To the disgusting troll – your vile and unwarrante­d words have done nothing but fire up your target and the team – YOU’VE LOST! A very strong, great game ladies. The very best of luck for the grand final next week! Blue Baggers forever!

Has anybody noticed the number of cyclists riding around Surfers and Broadbeach at night with no lights on their bikes? Don’t they value their lives? Who cleans up the mess when they get hit? Big Ben

My Chinese wife keeps asking me why Oz local, state and federal politician­s just talk, talk, talk and not do, do, do as in her home country, which now has 20,000km of fast rail and now has trains going from Yiwu/Shanghai to London.

Just what does it take to have our judges hand out appropriat­e sentences? Case 1. A fellow has $90,000 worth of drugs he is selling to fund his habit. 4 months in jail. Case 2. An unprovoked girl, viciously beats & kicks a younger girl, while on probation … no jail time. You have to be joking. John Mc

I am all for the “fast train” but can somebody tell me why the new ones we have can’t go faster? Is the engine not big enough or are the rails not up to it? It’s a pathetical­ly slow journey to Brisbane!

Let’s hope P Dougherty read Bob Janssen’s letter in GCB 23/3 re the 19 y/o who attacked an old man in a bus trying to break up a fight between 2 young women. So much for P Dougherty’s claim that this generation are the most educated and advanced over past generation­s and will be our leaders. Did he mean leaders of crime? Susan, a wise oldie.
