It's official - outgoing Mayor heads to Tasmania ...

The outgoing Mayor said rumours at the time of the recycled water referendum of her moving to Tasmania were scurrilous.

Turns out they were spot on.

Excerpt from the Chronicle:

Toowoomba Mayor Dianne Thorley has bought that quiet hotel in Tasmania she always dreamt of.

The hotel, overlooking the Huon Valley and the Huon River, was advertised for $650,000 walk-in, walk-out. The half-hectare site has a main bar, lounge bar, dining room, kitchen, amenity rooms, stock rooms and a three-unit motel block.

Cr Thorley's Cottesloe Street home and Toowoomba investment properties are for sale.

"I don't know how many times I have to say it - after March 15, I am not here," Cr Thorley said.


See - Outgoing Mayor buys into Tasmania.

Commiserations to the residents of Franklin and the Huon Valley for drawing the short straw ...

She was NEVER going to drink recycled water. She was always going to sell up and move to some place with plenty of water and no need to drink recycled water. What a hypocrite.

And Beattie and Flanagan will do the same.

I agree. None of them will stick around to drink it. Remember Beattie said 'We're trialling it in Toowoomba but I wouldn't drink it.' He hasn't changed his view.

It does'nt look very busy!
When it was said she had bought a pub I expected to see something special.
Pictured open verandahs and iron lacing.
Oh well at least there is a swing she can play on and entertain the sippers when they visit
