Paula supplied curtains and blinds for our whole house. The best part about the service was her inspired ideas which were mindful of our taste, budget and requirements, particularly as we do not have good ideas about curtains. The other companies who provided quotes either were unable to help with ideas or, when we asked them to quote on similar ideas to Paula's were more expensive. The service was very quick too.

I wanted to have my gas ducted heating and evaporative cooling serviced. I phoned for an appointment and was given a time the next week. This was much better than some people I had phoned who do not get back to you as promised or returned calls. They kept the appointment time punctually and seemed to work quickly and efficiently. I have not used either system yet, so I couldn't really say if they are working better, but I was happy to find someone who gave me a prompt appointment and kept it. It cost $180 to have the cooling serviced (we have a double story house) and $105 to have the heating serviced.

I found Pass-the-Parcel on the internet and was a bit nervous as I had not seen their work before, but my concerns were unfounded. The entertainer kept a group of about 20 4 and 5 year olds entertained for almost 1 and a half hours, and they really enjoyed it, she had them all laughing. The entertainment included interactive storytelling, games and balloon animals. Even my 10 year old said he would recommend it for 4 and 5 year old birthdays. Lolly boxes for the party guests were included in the cost.

Approximate cost: $250

I have had a couple of special occasion lunches, and while the food is very good I think the best thing about Bistro 1 is the feel of the restaurant. The decor and the stylish, professional and efficient staff contribute to the atmosphere which make you feel like its a special occasion.

Approximate cost: $35

We dined here for dinner on Mother's Day. It has a very cosy atmosphere. Food was great and the pancake menu is reasonably priced, $12.90. Other main courses from the specials board are $25+. Very child friendly. My hubby and I had very yummy desserts, highly recommend the blueberry pancakes and the black forest pancakes.

I have bought a number of lovely dresses here, including a special dress for my sisters wedding. The clothes is good quality and is cut well to flatter real women. The dresses I have bought here I have been able to wear a lot, not just for one occasion. The staff are friendly and helpful. They will not tell you something looks good when it doesn't. They also have shoes to try with your outfit.

Approximate cost: $190

I always buy nappies here. They have large boxes of Huggies at a good price and a good range of seconds quality nappies which are great for day time use, and a good bargin. They also have everything you could want or need for baby at a great price.

I have a weekly clean from Easli. I love the fact that the Easli cleaner uses environmentally friendly methods that are clean really well and use less water. I am very happy with the quality of service, it is so nice to come home to a sparkling clean house without the chemical smells.

The staff are helpful and friendly, the doctors are very thorough and have a pleasant manner with patients and always give credible, competent, considered advice. Very satisfied with the level of care. Great with children.

Showgrounds Child Care is a community child care centre run by a committee of parents. It is a not for profit centre. The centre has wonderful staff who create a soothing environment for the children. The staff turnover is very low and the level of care is top quality
