HUGS: To the people who maintain the bicycle trails.
SLUGS: To the smokers who think cigarette butts are not litter.
SLUGS: To the person who cut down a yew tree on Badger. Not cool dude.
SLUGS: To the receptionist at the doctor’s office. Thanks for your “lack of help” for getting my papers signed. — Tired of incompetence
SLUGS: A slug to the otherwise excellent Nelson service station whose street sign appears to advertise diesel fuel at 10 cents under the price on the pump itself. Truth in advertising??
SLUGS: To the guy who leaves snot-like streaks on the library washroom mirror on a regular basis. I don’t want to understand your issues; just want that gross habit to stop. Other regular patrons feel the same way.
HUGS: Big hugs to the clean up crews collecting garbage along a stretch of Highway 6 between Taghum Bridge and Insight Drive recently. The volunteers, dressed in hi-vis orange vests, collected vast numbers of bright orange plastic bags filled with roadside garbage. Each bag had a conspicuous, timely reminder to all: “NO LITTERING.”
HUGS: Big hugs to the folks who took it upon themselves to clean the ditches along the highway from Taghum Bridge to the turnoff to the new transfer station. Our roadways have been littered with trash blown off of unsecured loads and thrown from vehicles by thoughtless motorists. Please secure your garbage before hitting 100 km/h on the highway, litterbugs!
