  1. An upside could be that it will take his mind off the stench of the lake and rotting carcasses from the abs.

    1. I thought that too, but figured I’d said enough. LoL

  2. Mr Howard needs to get a hoby and knock off the whinging. Should everyone else just drive around the entire Colac township to save you being inconvenienced for an entire 8 weeks?

  3. Actually… I drove past there this morning and there was a lady from a house on Marriner st out the front with her (guessing) grandson who was dressed up in a Hi-Vis vest and they’d made a little STOP sign on a pole. They both looked to be having fun watching the workers, so I guess she doesn’t mind the works.
    Kids= looked pretty cool too. 😉

  4. He can block the work all he wants, I’ll drag him outta the way myself. LoL It say’s in the story “eight weeks”… now that’s not a long time to be put out a bit for the benefit of possibly thousands of local and interstate travellers, both tourist & workers.
    Before anyone has a go at me about it all, I and many others live on Murray st and have done so by choice. So i can assure you all from my opinion it’s NOT BAD… and that’s with truck exhaust brakes and speeding vehicles, which he’ll have less of then myself.
