Ambulance wait times
I had a motorcycle accident three weeks ago, ambos were there and cutting up my $270 protective jeans within four minutes. Unfortunately, a lot of slow response times is the result of poor health industry funding resulting in lots of staff and utility cuts where rural/small towns suffer the most. It's the result of the Liberal government thinking Australia will be run on coal ports and not infrastructure.

Until a permanent solution is found, why not automatically respond with the fire brigade? Both Fire Rescue and the RFS have defibrillators and it could mean the difference between saving a life or not.

NYE fireworks
Sorry if I offend. Always hated them since I was a little girl. Money literally up in smoke and animals fleeing. Don't see the fun or reason. Plenty of kinder, cheaper and friendlier ways to celebrate.

Sadly never [watching] again in Merimbula. It was very poor info given on where it was going to be held and atmosphere of it all is gone.

Christmas lunch for all
Thank you to everyone who makes this place such a great place to live. Christmas 2017 was the best yet but the true heroes are the people behind the scenes. Christine Smith leads an amazing team of chefs and Janita leads an inspired group of hosts.
