Sincere Thanks

Yesterday, Wednesday, I tripped over in a construction area in Albert St. It was not good, and I was taken away in an ambulance etc. I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you to the couple with the beautiful 1yr old boy, who stood with me for so long as I lay on the ground in pain and feeling ill. … View moreYesterday, Wednesday, I tripped over in a construction area in Albert St. It was not good, and I was taken away in an ambulance etc. I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you to the couple with the beautiful 1yr old boy, who stood with me for so long as I lay on the ground in pain and feeling ill. They were calm and supportive and just very kind.
You are most appreciated, I wish I'd been in a state to ask your names.
Also, the construction workers who stayed with me til the ambulance came...cheers for that, nice to not be alone.
Thank you soo much,

Hi to all,

Kindly please if you have pitbulls as pet please keep them in your property or on leash at all times. There was an aggressive Pitbull that wandered into my area at 415pm and it was snarling and growling at my door.

Got my pots and pans and start clanging to get it to get out of my backyard and all. 😡😡😡

If you know your Pitbull is aggressive leash em up and not let it stray out. When something happens and your fave pet gets taken away, do not blame it on anyone but you 🤦‍♂️
