THUMBS UP AND DOWN

  • Thumbs Down

Thumbs down 24/5/22

I saw the thumbs down item recently about ‘the worst corner in Narrabri’ but I would like to add every corner that intersects the highway through town needs a roundabout. Each one needs a roundabout. It is ridiculous that highway traffic comes to a halt on the Tibbereena street Narrabri river bridge approaches. A roundabout could easily be put there – plenty of room – and the traffic could continue to flow.

Thumbs up 24/5/22

Thumbs up to the new government. Now we will see prompt action on climate change, and we will all be saved by wind farms and solar panels. There is just the small matter of a new Chinese coal-fired power station being built every few weeks, plus those in Turkey, Vietnam etc., to be attended to by the government and the new ‘teal’ green independents, but that shouldn’t be a problem. I look forward to the promised new world.

Thumbs up 19/5/22

Thumbs up to the election candidates for Parkes who we met at the Meet the Candidates forum held by the Chamber of Commerce. Any of the candidates would be a sincere and effective advocate for the community. The reality is that only one will get the voters’ tick on polling day but it was very encouraging to see such competent and articulate people stand up and offer their services as our representatives.

Gunnedah FC completes Narrabri double with comeback win

Narrabri FC’s struggling start to the 2022 Namoi Soccer League campaign continued on Saturday when the side was defeated 2-1 on the road against Gunnedah FC. Narrabri FC led the contest, which was played at the Geoff Morgan Fields in Gunnedah, 1-0 at half-time after Colby Williams controlled a Cooper Brayshaw pass and slotted a shot from just inside the 18-yard box into the bottom left corner. However, Gunnedah came out firing in the second stanza as player-coach Andy Cygan levelled the scores with his seventh goal in four matches. Gunnedah was awarded a penalty with about 15 minutes left […]

Topical 24/5/22

What next? A viral infection called monkeypox has arrived in Australia – the first ever recorded in NSW. Fortunately, it is usually a mild illness, very rare and not easily transmitted to humans. A man in his 40s was diagnosed with monkeypox several days after arriving in Sydney. NSW Chief Health Officer Dr Chant said monkeypox is a viral infection that does not spread easily between people and is usually associated with travel to Central or West Africa, where it is endemic.
