That goodness its Friday!

Well things have been quiet on the home front.  A tiny snippet in the daily today points out that there will be no Tourism Levy from Fraser Coast Regional Council.  It is also great to see Cr O’Connell standing up and telling the nosy minister to keep out of local affairs.

We’ve removed a post today at the request of a certain King & Company Solicitors of Brisbane.  It was old news anyway.  Here at Bringbackstrewth we’re aiming at keeping the public informed and give you a space to share your thoughts on current issues.  We will continue to do that but as always, we’ll try to stick to the facts and steer clear from gossip.. we’ll leave that to someone else.

And back on deck is this latest comment from John Neve..

Nancy Says (18th Edition)

 
“Why aren’t they at school?” Nancy Says and it’s a good question.
She is of course talking about truancy and it’s causes, one of the
causes given is bullying!  Little changes in our world, there was both
bullying and truancy when I went to school. Although I believe the
reasons were different. Based on memory, in my day (quill pens
were still in use), boredom and scrumping were the main reasons.
Today it appears rebellion and fear are the reason given.
 
While an interesting topic, that is not why I’m writing. It’s Nancy
change of heart that has me intrigued. Her paper is quoting from
an “anonymous blog”!! Based on the wording, the quotes appear
to have been written by adults and are obviously selective
(violence is highlighted). Little if anything, seems to come from the
students! I would have thought a constructive article would have
started with the school children, but what would they know?
 
At least it’s a step in the right direction, our Daily drawing it’s
information from an “anonymous blog”.
