In my travels I have had comments wondering why Council don’t put any lights in some of the smaller towns around the Shire. Wooroolin for example, on the highway, not a single piece of tinsel or light in sight from Council. Thought they could put in at least a little effort for the residents outside Kingaroy …
For someone who constantly complains about Council waste, you’ve managed to set a new benchmark with this post. I have no doubt you’d be the first to complain if your suggestion was taken up. Please pull the other one – it has (jingle) bells on it.
So if it isn’t Council, who puts up the decorations in Wondai and Blackbutt?
