PS. Ashley. I know the feeling. I often hold doors open for people who pass through without a thank you. At one stage I almost couldn’t be bothered doing it anymore for the thankless people. But then I visited a McDonald’s in Thomastown and everyone said thank you. There are good and considerate people around. Don’t let the rude and self involved spoil your day. Thank you for making the effort to help others.

Dead fox on Williamsons Road Templestowe

This morning as I rode the bike to the local shops I noticed a fox in the Eastern cycle lane on Williamsons Road, near the roundabout. The fox had most likely been hit by a car.

Painter Templestowe, Doncaster and surrounding areas

Quite a while ago I received an pamphlet in the letter box. It was from a local painter & decorator. I kept the pamphlet because I’m interested in local businesses. I don’t know about others, but I find dealing with tradespeople isn’t one of the most fun experiences for me. I’ve had quite a few bad experiences. I know there are good tradies out there, but finding them can be hard.

I needed some painting done so I called Bill. He was quite pleasant, came out quickly and was good to deal with. Needless to say he got the work.

If you’re looking for a painter you can now find Bill on the JustLocal service on the Templestowe page (www.JustLocal.com.au/3106) or direct at http://www.justlocal.com.au/clients/templestowe-painter-and-decorator.

Boatshack Fish and Chips Templestowe

I’ve tried nearly every fish and chip shop in Templestowe and the surrounding suburbs. Some are great with the fish, others provide generous serves of chips. I’d tried the fish and chip shop in Newmans Road a few years ago, but if I recall correctly, the serve of chips were insufficient. The current owners Lesley and Sarah took over a couple of years ago and with a change of ownership often comes a different approach.

I decided to give the Dinner for Two a go. For $15 it is good value. Two pieces of flake, two potato cakes, two dim sims and a serve of chips. The chips were delightful, the fish tasty and the serve of chips very generous. The potato cakes where fluffy with a nice crisp batter that I enjoyed. Normally I prefer thinner potato cakes, but in this case they were very good.

If you haven’t tried Boatschack Fish and Chips in Newmans Road Templestowe lately, give them a go. You’ll be pleasantly surprised.

You can find the Boatshack Fish and Chips menu on the JustLocal page www.JustLocal.com.au/3106.
