THERE’S been plenty of calendars over the years sporting the essential contact information distributed by members of Parliament.
Throw in the odd pen and in more recent years, the reusable shopping bag.
The practical Peter Walsh, now into his second decade as the local MP heading off to Parliament House in Spring Street, has taken the useful offering of pollies to a new sphere.
At last week’s Elmore Field Days, Peter and the National Party had queues as they handed out buckets - easily spotted in the bright yellow and green livery.
More than a few were used as head protection from the rain that fell on the first day of the 60th field days.
Thousands of people grabbed their handy buckets and there were constant lines of Peter Walsh’s very own bucket brigade wandering the displays.
The huge field days site was dotted with the bright yellow buckets.
The Loddon Herald discovered the trusty giveaways of pen and shopping bag were in the bucket!
