I just cut a sesame seed role in half for lunch.
There was seed on 20 per cent of the roll and they don't taste anymore like sesame seeds that used to be all over the roll.
How hard is it for our bakers to make a good roll and gourmet pies?
A good baguette like Vietnam would pull customers in for sure.

Heartfelt thanks to Batemans Bay Hospital
The treatment and care I received as an in-patient for 11 days at Batemans Bay Hospital was second to none.
Many thanks to all nursing staff who were so supportive, caring and informative of all my procedures and treatments.
I also thank all catering and cleaning staff who helped make my stay more relaxing.
I am unable to name each and every one, so I would like to pass on my appreciation and many thanks to all who looked after me in room 105. They will know who they are.
Also, many thanks and appreciation to Dr David Rivett.

Grumpy urged to take the puppy cure
Regarding Grumpy Old Woman (Bay Post/Moruya Examiner, January 6): your article and puppy photograph have certainly hit a raw nerve.
I am sure there are thousands of Public Enemy No 1s out there, instead of your claim on innocent canines.
I was hoping we were becoming more liberalised towards dogs in our Eurobodalla community.
As travelers in this wonderful country of ours, with two dogs, we find it difficult to visit markets and cafes and are very happy when we are able to.
As responsible pet owners, we often comment how our dogs are better behaved than some children.
Pets are wonderful companions, extending life and improving health in humans.
Perhaps you should get one so you are not so grumpy?

Mucho time to ponder Moruya traffic
Regarding the holiday traffic problem (Bay Post/Moruya Examiner, January 6, 9): how about turning off the traffic lights, putting an officer on point duty and letting the traffic flow with an intermittent interruption to let traffic on the side streets enter or cross over?
At present, people in the know, turn right at the roundabout and then proceed to Church Street, knowing that they will get through quicker than those travelling north on the highway.
A similar situation exists with traffic travelling east on Church street; a short wait and they are through, whereas the poor buggers on the highway usually have to wait for about three or four changes of the light from the South Head roundabout before they get out of Moruya.
An officer directing traffic would alleviate this, let the traffic on the highway travel unimpeded for ten to fifteen minutes and let the side street traffic merge or cross when he sees that it is warranted.
This would also stop a lot of the traffic that currently uses these as “short cuts”.
It would also be a bit of positive PR for the boys in blue: seeing one of them facilitating their quick passage through a normal bottle neck, rather than the usual sight of them booking someone.
Just a suggestion, ‘cause what we’ve got now a’int working.
