Does anyone still like 1D? (One Direction)

Laura from Pyes Pa

Well here's a piece of memorabilia ... a metal tin from 2011 that used to hold 50 coloured pencils. Used to. It's empty now. Maybe there's a fan out there who wants to add this to their stash?

Job not up to scratch?

If you have problems with services or products, you may be protected by the CGA. You should expect services to be carried out with appropriate competency and skills, and completed to a reasonable standard.

For example, Jan had two painters provide quotes for some painting and wallpaper work. She chose her painter and the work was completed. Two weeks later she noticed bumps and lumps in the wallpaper, that she hadn’t noticed at the time the bill was paid.

With a faulty product, you can return it and ask for a repair, replacement or refund. But that’s not so easy with a service! But Jan’s story ended well, the painter came back and rectified the problem at no cost to Jan.

Hit n run - letterbox - any one see?

Michelle from Greerton - Parkvale

A car just rammed in to my letterbox between 8.45 pm and 8.55 PM on Cameron Road, Greerton, guessing they were trying to turn around as people often do.

If anyone was driving past and saw the car and this happen, i would appreciate any detail. A worry though that surely they had to be drunk or under some influence to hit my letterbox so hard it split in half and was ripped off the post - I hope they get home safe without hurting anyone is my biggest concern.

They left and tooted before I had a chance to run out and get their license plate. I shouldn't be surprised but always like to believe the best in people,  but they didn't come and see me to apologise or offer to cover the cost. I am a solo parent and student, it's disappointing when someone is reckless and not giving too hoots about how it might impact on another persons life and my daughter who is a promising soccer player counting on me for new shin pads, futsal boots and futsal fees for instance. I will still pay for these things of course because I need to support her dreams and skills, but the hit n run letterbox doesn't help!
