All those bellyaching about the cluden roadworks are jolly hard to please, how else were they going to build it? It will be a real showpiece when completed. Ron Kelso. I now know what “minimum disruption” means when applied to construction work in the CBD. It means get all that loud annoying jack hammer work over early by starting on Saturday at 6: 15, this means the jobs done by 9am with “minimum disruption” except for the 100’ s of residents within earshot. MGNW Free Mystery Tours- just head for the Cluden roadworks. You never know where you’ll end up. TINKER. 4816. Spoilt Brat Tomic. If his father didn’t have money he would be a 2nd rate player. Lots of players missed out on a chance because Tomic Snr paid for Jnr to go to the right matches. Go home if you don’t like Tennis Australia. Grumpy4810 It was good 2 c Tennis Australias atitude 2 the arrogance of Tomic. Who does he think he is? The privileged r used 2 bhavin like this with ordinary people, nd think it goes 4 everthin. Joe Blake D. Bilton.. surely the convention in marriage is what has always been... one man and one woman. So, advocating falling into line with the recent same sex laws of the rest of the western world, as you put it, would be radical, not conventional.

AGACY, Thank you for that letter on Saturday, we need more people like you to step up to Townsville First, Mayor Hill deserves respect and so do the people of Townsville. Brenda West End. Public servant 4820, Australia never had black slaves. I’d hate to think someone reading your text would believe that. And also if we voted and 51 said yes, then it would be right. That’s how democracy works. Gary J Mt Louisa 4814. Well said Hetero. Popular democracy is not always fair. Your example of slavery was good point. So many changes in laws. No wonder youth are confused and disillusioned with life. S. Douglas Has anyone noticed the Brisbane Broncos have been scheduled to appear in 18 free- to- air games this regular season whilst our Cowboys have only three in total?

To all the people who have spoken out about my support of same sex marriage i wonder just how many of you have been in a relationship for 30 years like i have to my same sex partner! We just want equal rights. Thomas west end 4810. D. Bilton. I read some of your comments and wonder why people are so against what u say as I sometimes agree with you BUT for you to say that most townsvillians DONT want same sex marriage, well don’t make statements like that if you don’t have the figures. Only way is a referendum. I’m not gay but thinking that if I had to be married to you, God forbid, I would turn. j 4815 If Townsville isn’t a city of backwater h hicks, bogans and rednecks, then where did the word ‘ Boganville’ a word used by former residents and people living other cities to refer to us, originate from? ZRM 4814. Hopefully the “experts” keep tipping against the Cowboys. As when they do the ‘ boys win. Colin 4814 The greeks might have to sell some of their islands, to pay back the big debt.
