Clarence Valley Council's 'man in the kilt' retiring
Happy retirement, Bob!
The Maclean office of the Clarence Valley Council just won't be the same after today. Its happy meet-and-greet face, aka Bob Nicoll, is taking his leave from that place today.
Bob is well known for his work attire - in fact he is very readily identified because he dons a kilt. Well, Maclean does claim to be Australia's Scottish town!
Bob's attention to local ratepayers and other visitors to the council's Maclean office has been A-1 and he'll be sorely missed.
Well done, Bob!

Bob was certainly a colourful sight. You're right, he will be missed. Pity the Daily Examiner got it wrong whn it said that he began wearing the kilt after council amalgamation. Bob began wearing that Maclean kilt when he was employed by Maclean Shire Council. Years before the valley councils amalgamated into Clarence Valley Council.
