Cheers and Jeers for Oct. 5

Cheers to all of the newspaper carriers who get the papers to the readers on a weekly basis. Cheers to the organizers of the Collage Cultural Festival for bringing all of the great entertainment, food and vendors together under one roof.

Cheers to the plan to bring back the Rafferty Rumble to Estevan. It was great before and it will be great again.

Cheers to local band Hook and Nail for the great performance last week. They sounded great and they played a lot of fun music.

Cheers to the Estevan area schools that marked Orange Shirt Day last week. It’s important for our school students to learn our history, even when it’s not so good.

 

Jeers to paper straws. Who thought of these things? They’re a pain when trying to drink anything.

Jeers to the way in which some people insist on driving down back alleys. They aren’t designed for motorists to go 50 or 60 kilometres per hour.

Jeers to the shape of the sidewalks on the 500-block of Fourth Street. There are a couple of areas that are definite trip hazards.

Jeers to those who drove too aggressively on Wednesday after the snow. It made a treacherous driving situation even worse.

Jeers to non-customers who insist in using the parking lots of businesses, even when it’s after hours. Some people should have their vehicles towed.
