More than 15,000 people set to converge on Queenscliff for weekend celebrations

BY ALISON MARTIN

THOUSANDS of people will be treated to a pyrotechnic display over Fort Queenscliff on Saturday night while the Australian Army Band plays Tchaikovsky’s 1812 Overture.

The presentation will be one of many highlights of a three-day celebration to commemorate 150 years of military presence in Queenscliff.

As history goes, “on September 16, 1860, four men braved the cold to man a gun battery that had been installed on Shortland’s Bluff; a coastal headland at the entrance of Port Phillip”.

“Their mission was to protect the gold-rich cities of Melbourne and Geelong from foreign invaders.

They were members of the first Queenscliff Garrison Artillery and among the first volunteer

force in Victoria.”

Spokesperson for the celebration’s organising committee, Liz Fountain, said the event had started as a gala ball to mark the fort’s anniversary and had grown to a full programme of activities for the community and interested visitors who would descend on Queenscliff for the weekend.

She said more than 15,000 people were expected to attend the commemoration which would include a parade, tours of the fort, entertainment and various activities and attractions presented by the Australian Defence Force and community.

The weekend will be launched with the gala ball for 160 Friends of the Fort and invited guests on Friday night.

Saturday morning’s street parade will feature the soldiers and officers of the Soldier Career

Management Agency, Army Band Melbourne, 2nd 10th Field Regiment Band, 4th 19th Prince of Wales Light Horse Band, members of the Queenscliff and Point Lonsdale RSL, Victoria Police, 429 Squadron Air Cadets, Members of the Geelong Military Reenactment Group, Historical Military Vehicles, Queenscliff Lighthouse Theatre Group and other local community groups.

A traffic management plan providing easy access for visitors will include parking at various locations with shuttle services.

Cars can be parked at the Marine Discovery Centre, the Bull Ring and Princes’ Park.

Parking will be available at the old Queenscliff High School site and the Bellarine Railway will operate trains for up to 300 people, taking them into Queenscliff station, with a 10-minute turnaround

and minimal return trip cost.

Car parking will also be available in Point Lonsdale and a bus shuttle service will ferry people between the two towns.

Geelong Taxi Network will bring in all war veterans from around the Bellarine Peninsula to the huge military event, with bookings on 131 008.

Fountain said the volunteer organising committee members had provided many hours work to bring the event together and there had been some “fantastic financial support from within the community”.

She said a wet weather timetable would be introduced if necessary to ensure the weekend of celebrations would not be affected by rain.

Portarlington Town Square and streetscape works about to start

Advertising Executive Sharon Radwanski sharon@surfcoasttimes.com.au 0425 704 625

Works are expected to get under way this week to revitalise Newcombe Street in Portarlington.

The first stage in the works will include the construction of a new Town Square centred on the recently refurbished century-old Rotunda and Bandstand. The new Town Square will become an inviting place where people can meet up with others or just have a seat and take in the ocean views.

The next stage of the project will be streetscape works in Newcombe Street, including new footpaths, street furniture and trees/gardens.

It’s a true regional facility that will be able to cope with our growth into the future.

Next month, Leisurelink’s water park, including two theme park style waterslides, a kids’ water adventure park and a splash park for little kids, will open with a free family fun day.

City of Greater Geelong provided $28million for the new Leisurelink and the State Government has contributed $2million plus the 50-metre legacy pool.

City hall turns blue this month to promote prostate cancer awareness On a final note, September is International Prostate Cancer Awareness Month, which aims to raise awareness and funds to help prevent this form of cancer.

City Hall will join iconic buildings around Australia by turning blue to promote Prostate Cancer awareness. Every night during September, city hall

will be lit up with blue lights kindly provided by local company LG Electrical Contractors.

The incidence of Prostate Cancer is increasing.

It is anticipated that around 20,000 men in Australia will be diagnosed this year, with a mortality rate exceeding 3,300.

In its early stages Prostate Cancer has no symptoms and the disease may be advanced by the time it is detected. Statistics also indicate that the mortality rate in rural areas is 21 per cent higher than in urban areas.

The earlier Prostate Cancer is detected the better the chances are of beating it, so make an appointment with your doctor today for a simple test. It’s a few minutes of discomfort, but it could save your life.

Local B&Bs Post-carbon future facing closure

BY ALISON MARTIN BED AND Breakfast accommodation owner Lyndsay Wright believes mixed use rate changes are ‘hit and miss’ and currently discriminate against B&B owners.

Responding to last week’s Bellarine Times story identifying concerns for the industry, Wright confirmed small operators had already closed because of City of Greater Geelong rate increases imposed on some B&B properties.

Wright said he opened Views End Bed and Breakfast 14 years ago and was one of the first B&B operators on the Bellarine, outside Queenscliff. “We were told when we came down here, that as long as we had accommodated no more than six people we didn’t need to be registered as a commercial business,� he said. “We have three bedrooms in our house we offer for B&B; it was a lifestyle choice and we don’t make a lot of money. “Then we received a letter from council to say our rates would go from residential to mixed use – a 38 per cent increase.�

Wright acknowledged there were other B&B owners with only one room who had been hit with the change of rating category and were even worse off.

However, he said the greatest inequity in council’s rating category change that targeted B&B owners this year was that not all B&B properties had been hit with the mixed use charge and many other

NO MAINTENANCE

DECKING

home-based businesses were still under residential rates. “I know a lot of people working from home and they’re making a lot more than any B&B,� Wright said.

He said he had been told by council that other home-based businesses would be charged mixed use when they were identified, but it had started with B&B operators with websites.

Wright said he would support Bellarine Tourism’s suggestion to split the mixed use rating into two levels, depending on the number of B&B rooms or the amount of income earned.

City of Greater Geelong financial services manager, Mike Kelly, said the mixed use rating classification applied to properties that conducted a business from home. “The mixed use rating classification is a higher rate than the residential classification, but lower than the commercial classification which is applied to properties purely used for business,� he said.

However, until a solution is found, the Bellarine’s hospitality industry is facing a significant number of closures and reduction in the number of beds available to visitors.

Like many other Bellarine B&B owners, Rade and Robyn Momcilovic who currently operate Wallington’s Rusty Owl, have decided to honour current bookings and then shut their doors because of the rate change and increase.

Turn to Letters to the Editor on page 16 and read more about the Momcilovic’s decision.

GEELONG Sustainability Group hosted open sessions on Sunday at some of the region’s most sustainable homes that have been designed for a post carbon future.

Houses at Leopold, Drysdale and Barwon Heads were among the list of homes visited on Sustainable House Day by community members interested in learning more about sustainability innovations.

Key features of the Leopold home, featured during the sustainability promotion, are its passive solar design, rainwater harvesting system,

greywater re-use system, solar hot water and vegetable production system.

Its floor slab is insulated and large windows, external and internal walls are double-insulated, which ensures room temperatures are as high as 20 degrees while it is 10 degrees outside.

Grey water is used on lawns and around one megalitre of rainwater is collected annually for food production.

For more ideas and information on keeping your home sustainable, visit the website at www.geelongsustainability.org.au

Leopold’s Warren Long opened his home to the community on Sunday to promote Sustainable House Day on the Bellarine, with Geelong Sustainability Group president, Monica Winston, on hand to assist visitors with sustainability information.

DRYSDALE Rotarian, Ron Medson, is urging Bellarine seniors to boost their confidence behind the wheel with a subsidised refresher driving lesson.

Medson, who initiated Drysdale Rotary Club’s link with Barwon Division of the Victorian Community Road Safety Council eight years ago, is currently promoting the Road Safety for Mature Age Drivers programme.

He said since many Bellarine residents received their licence, laws had changed, cars had changed and roads were “much busier�.

Medson said more than 1,000 Bellarine and Geelong drivers had taken advantage of the subsidised refresher lessons, which had no connection with VicRoads and would not affect their drivers’ licences.

However, he said there were many benefits, including “the enormous boost to your confidence and your ability to drive into the future�. “Many of us have not had a lesson of any kind since gaining our licence at age 18 or so,� he said.

Medson has also presented more than 130 road safety presentations to local groups, spreading his vital road safety messages. “Remember knowledge is the most powerful weapon we possess when it comes to the skills we need when driving a motor vehicle,� he said. “There are many reasons why road crashes occur, one of these is concentration on what is around you. “One of the most important things to remember is to check the ‘blind spot’ do a proper head check when changing lanes, turning, or entering a freeway.

Safe driving practices apply to all drivers.�

Medson said it was also each person’s responsibility to ensure they are fit to drive. “Have regular health checks and keep your car in

good condition. Remember, nutrition, good health, emotions, alcohol and being active, all play an essential role in our driving capability,� he said. “Our mobility influences our health; in turn our health can affect our mobility.�

A free Victorian Older Drivers’ Handbook

with more advice and road safety updates is also available.

To find out more about the refresher driving programme, the handbook, or to arrange a road safety presentation for your group, contact Ron Medson on 5253 2940 or 0418 396 099.

Panel decision on land?

A PLANNING amendment to open more Leopold land for residential development is expected to be referred to an independent panel.

City of Greater Geelong councillors will consider public submissions responding to the proposed amendment at tonight’s meeting.

The amendment seeks to rezone land bounded

by Moss Road, Portarlington Road, Kensington Road and to the north of the Bellarine Rail Trail, Leopold, from farming zone to residential 1 zone.

The 12-hectare area is expected to create between 120 and 130 residential blocks, however, two objections from neighbouring property owners raise drainage concerns.

The amendment proposes to make the land subject to a Development Plan Overlay to ensure the “new residential development is planned and constructed in a fully integrated and comprehensive manner, and that detailed issues such as urban design, drainage and traffic management are properly addressed prior to

The Lake Connewarre Lookout project at the end of Ash Road, Leopold, is nearing completion and will soon be a greatly improved asset for the community and visitors. The viewing area provides public access to the lake and improvements have been funded through a $158,000 Parks Victoria grant. Friends of the Bellarine Rail Trail members, (back) Peter Cowden, John Winter, Bob Hearn, (front left) Peter Rankin and (right) City of Greater Geelong’s Tim Goddard were among the team who planted 300 indigenous plants at the viewing site last week.

the development of the site”.

The amendment is also accompanied by an agreement which requires developers to pay a contribution of $900 per residential lot towards the development of the Leopold Community Hub on Kensington Road.

The council report to be tabled at the meeting acknowledges the area north of Portarlington Road, including land where the submitters reside, is at the bottom of the catchment and subject to downstream flows utilising the open drainage

network. However council officers have advised the amendment is not expected to increase existing drainage problems.

Under the Planning and Environment Act 1987, councillors must vote to change the amendment in the manner requested by the submissions, refer the submissions to an independent panel appointed by the Minister for Planning, abandon the amendment or part of the amendment.

The council meeting will start at 7pm tonight, September 14.

Dancesport hits Port MORE than 500 people waltzed, quickstepped, foxtrotted and tangoed their way across Portarlington’s Parks Hall over the weekend.

Inspired by the television series ‘Dancing with the Stars’ last year, eight local dance fanatics formed a group to bring Dance Sport to the Bellarine.

After the popularity and success of the 2009 event, the group planned to ‘do it all again’.

This year enthusiastic ballroom dancers came from all over Victoria, including Wodonga, Bairnsdale and Horsham with a few couples travelling from as far as New South Wales.

A dance was held on Friday night, a ball on Saturday night and a tea dance on Sunday, with Parks Hall hosting the three events.

Organisers of the huge Bellarine weekend said it had been a tremendous attraction for the peninsula, bringing visitors who booked accommodation and spent money while they were dancing in Portarlington.

Bellarine residents interested in learning to dance and joining social dance nights every Tuesday night at the Portarlington Uniting Church Hall can phone 5259 1776.

Let’s dance! Turn to page 11 for more pictures from Portarlington’s big weekend of ballroom.

Rainwater is saved BARWON Heads Primary School has installed a new tank to water its kitchen garden and support its innovative sustainability programme.

The garden is a parent and staff initiative, which has been developed to grow a range of vegetables and fruit trees.

School principal, Darren Roskosch, said Year One and Two had already started harvesting vegetables for classroom-related activities.

He said the tank had been funded through a $1,000 donation from the All Saints Anglican Church Opportunity Shop and a $500 donation from the Ocean Grove and Barwon Heads Lions Club.

“The tank was supplied at a significant discount by Tankster Rain Water Tanks and installed free of charge

by BMC Plumbing,” Roskosch said.

When rainfall declines over the warmer months, Barwon Heads students Vijay and Max will be ready to keep the school’s kitchen garden growing with water collected in the new tank.

breaking the enduring silence.

Apart from being tremendous fun, legend has it that the sharp sound the wooden blocks made as they hit each other caused enough ruckus to keep the hungry bears at bay. So out of much fun and wood flinging, the game was invented.

But while the noise scared bears, Klop is a much more ear-friendly sound than television, digital games and bored children – and anyone can play, anywhere.

Gourmet roadhouse a hit

BY ALISON MARTIN ELK HORN Roadhouse has been open less than 10 months but has already shown what can be achieved by embracing “all that is on offer� on the Bellarine.

On the coldest midweek day, the Wallington cafĂŠ and store is busy with a mix of locals who have made it their regular eatery and visitors who have stumbled across the exciting home of seriously good food.

Its rustic yet vibrant atmosphere provides a refreshing difference to any other cafe on the Bellarine and the menu is superb.

Elk Horn Roadhouse is the creation of Terri Britton and Julie Taylor, who see the popular venue as an ever-evolving work in progress which combines the opportunity to showcase the best of the Bellarine with the relaxed ‘roadhouse’ feel that makes every diner and traveller welcome.

“We have always had a strong connection with Wallington and the local community and we are really excited that we have been able to establish Elk Horn‌ and it’s the food that has set us apart,â€?

Terri said. “We describe it as casual gourmet; good wholesome food with country flare and everything we serve has been made on the premises by our chef, Nathan Veach. “We support small producers and use organic and free range products whenever possible.�

Customers can also take the delicious produce home, with many of the locally-made or sourced items available in the Elk Horne kitchen essentials store.

Elk Horn Roadhouse, located at 420 Wallington Road, is one of the many highlights on the Bellarine Taste Trail. For more information on the trail, phone Bellarine Tourism on 5244 7107.

Terri, Nathan and Julie at Elk Horn Roadhouse are overwhelmed with the response they have received from the local community and visitors who love their casual gourmet menu – particularly their specialty tasting plate.

Future kindergarten plans Ocean Grove families are joining together to lobby for expanded kindergarten facilities – before children miss out on places.

IF YOU live in or near Ocean Grove and have a baby or toddler, ensure your child can attend kindergarten by taking action through the Ocean Grove Kindergartens’ Future Committee.

Committee spokesperson, Sally-anne Caligri, is currently inviting parents who will have kinder-age children in future years to join the committee and support its planning and lobbying for a long-term solution that meets the increasing population.

City of Greater Geelong has applied for

rapidly growing number of three- and fouryear-olds in the next few years.

A short term solution for 2011 has been developed by Surfside Kindergarten and Ocean Grove Pre-School, however, more space and staff will be required to meet the government’s mandatory increase in hours for four-year-old kinder to 15 hours per week by 2013.

To join or provide support for the Ocean Grove Kindergartens’ Future Committee, contact Sally-anne Caligari on 0400 258 848 or email sal@tvstream.com.au

State Government funding to build additional rooms at kindergartens in Ocean Grove and Leopold, and is planning to establish the municipality’s first integrated children’s centre in Ocean Grove.

However, Caligri said it was important local families were involved in the planning process for new or expanded kinders in the area.

She said the funding application was a positive step but there was a lot of work and money required – in a short time frame – to create enough kindergarten places for the

beach holiday all year round!

Finalist awards presented

Joanna Meyer, from Sustainability Victoria, Bellarine Bayside Green Team member Robyn Brooks, Bellarine Bayside plumber Mal Lawrence and Bellarine Bayside chair Cathy Whelan proudly display the foreshore committee’s award finalists’ certificates.

SUSTAINABILITY Victoria representatives arrived in Portarlington last week to present Bellarine Bayside Foreshore Committee of Management with its finalist certificates for the 2010 Keep Australia Beautiful Victoria Tidy Towns’ Sustainable Communities Awards.

Bellarine Bayside’s ‘Love the Planet, Love the Park’ sustainability festival – presented on the Portarlington beach in January – was named a finalist in the Pam Keating Environmental Innovation category.

Bellarine Bayside’s extensive efforts in water conservation have also been recognised as a finalist in the water conservation category.

Keep Australia Beautiful Awards

project manager, Joann Meyer, said it was a great achievement for a community to be announced a finalist for two separate entries.

Bellarine Bayside chief executive, Tim Page-Walker, said it was “fantastic to see Sustainability Victoria visit Portarlington and recognise the effort of all of the people who contributed to these sustainability initiatives�.

The awards celebrate and recognise community input into maintaining, improving and sustaining their local environments.

The winners will be announced on October 9 at a awards ceremony in Beechworth.

Joe achieves his lifelong dream MORE than 75 years after leaving school, Portarlington’s Joe Redding has realised his dream.

The 91-year-old Portarlington resident said he had always wanted to be in charge of the classroom. “I always wanted to be a school teacher but when I was 14, it was the end of the depression and I had to leave school. But now, after all these years my dream has come true‌,â€? he said.

Joe is one of those special people who make a difference in the Portarlington community and has been volunteering as a classroom helper at Portarlington Primary School since 2003.

He spends a day at the school every week and has taken on a grandfather role, which is extremely important for the many children who cannot spend regular time with grandparents.

Staff at Portarlington have describe him as a “fantastic role model� and appreciate the reading support and many other tasks he assists with throughout the day.

Portarlington PS is currently celebrating Enrolment Week through until Friday, with special Leap into Learning sessions planned for term four.

A starting school and school information session will be held at 7pm, tomorrow, Wednesday, September 15, and parents are urged you to attend and hear what Portarlington PS can offer families.

Joe Redding is an important part of Portarlington Primary School.

Warning on farm dams SOUTHERN Rural Water is warning all landowners to take the time to check the safety of their farm dams.

Groundwater and Rivers manager, Craig Parker, says that with recent heavy rains, there is a chance that some dams may fail if they have not been properly maintained.

“A failed dam is expensive to repair and will deny you of a vital water supply when you need it most,” he said.

“It can also cause significant damage to neighbouring, downstream properties – and you are liable for meeting these costs.”

The key things to look out for include: • Ensuring the spillway is of adequate size and is free of debris or long grass • If a compensation pipe is installed, that it works and is easily accessible • The dam slopes are not showing signs of leaking or slippage • The dam crest is even and not eroded and there are no cracks present.

“If you’re uncertain about any of this, seek advice from a qualified engineer with farm dam experience,” said Craig.

For more information about farm dams or other farm water management issues, phone Southern Rural Water on 1300 139 510.

Fresh is always best

BY ELEANOR WOODS

Harvey Lang is your local ‘milkman’ among other things. The savvy entrepreneur has tapped into a hungry market.

Photo: ELEANOR WOODS

THE SURF Coast’s Harvey Lang is not only your local milkman, he is also your go-to-guy for fruit, vegetables, meat, eggs and all sorts of other home-grown goodies.

As the local franchisee of Aussie Farmers Direct, Lang can bring you the freshest and best produce on offer – and skip the middle man, making it cheaper and more convenient.

Aussie Farmers Direct is a free home delivery service that provides locally sourced 100 per cent Australian produce direct from farmers to the front door.

Lang kicked off his career with AFD in May this year and has been met by nothing but praise for the concept and the quality he has delivered to doorsteps along the coast.

“My wife and I both grew up on farms so we understand the issues faced by Australian farmers and the importance of buying local produce,” Lang said.

“When I was given the chance to own a business that is 100 per cent Australian and helping local farmers compete against foreign imports – I jumped at the opportunity.”

The former physical education teacher, children’s book author and footy coach is a proud father of three, and believes passionately in the service he is providing.

“Being an Aussie Farmers Direct franchisee allows me to support the local economy as well as giving me the chance to meet new people, spend more time with my three boys, and have a positive impact on my community,” Lang said.

“This place goes mad over summer and from what I hear the supermarkets can’t keep up. People can avoid the hassle and get onboard Aussie Farmers Direct and not have to worry.”

The ‘milkman’ has invigorated the old-fashioned concept of having someone deliver to your door the freshest and best produce – with a smile.

AFD sources and delivers 100 per cent Australian owned and made produce, with the current range of goods on offer including milk, bread, eggs, cheese, bacon, butter, coffee, water, tortillas and juice.

It also delivers fruit and vegetables, meat, chicken, salmon, prawns and even seasonal lines such as hot cross buns.

Rip Curl to launch ‘ultimate game’ RIP CURL has announced that it will release a high-end 3D surfing game to the iPhone market this month.

Titled Live The Search: The Ultimate Surfing Game, the application is being driven by Rip Curl’s ‘Search’ philosophy, with the game allowing players to travel the world as Mick Fanning, Stephanie Gilmore or a self-created surfer, chasing swells and surfing some of the most secret waves in our oceans.

The player advances through the game by completing goals, unlocking trips and completing other objectives.

“I can’t wait to play the finished product – I’m a big iPhone and iPad geek so it’s going to be good to have a surfing app. It will be the perfect game to surfcoasttimes.com.au

kill down time,” said two-time ASP world champion Mick Fanning.

“The ‘Search’ concept is such a big part of Rip Curl’s culture and I’m glad we decided to focus on this for the game – traveling the world in search of perfect waves is what surfing is all about.”

Reigning women’s world champion, Steph Gilmore, is another looking forward to the launch of the application.

“I can’t wait to surf like Mick,” Gilmore said.

“It’s really cool that Mick and I are characters in the game. I’m going to play it all the time!”

Live The Search: The Ultimate Surfing Game is currently being reviewed by Apple and will be available via the iTunes store later this month.

Driving us out of business

Support for bike laws push

Dear Editor, On reading the article in the Bellarine Times (front page, September 7) it reinforces further that the City of Greater Geelong has not taken into consideration the impact to small businesses such as B&Bâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s.

We decided to run a single cottage B&B in Wallington and opened in April 2009. The last financial year it ran at a loss mainly due to minor improvements, spare bedding etc.

With the same amount of bookings this financial year we could expect approximately 20-25 per cent profit. The profit would almost cover last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s property rates.

Consequently, due to low profit, we were looking at increasing our exposure from one website to promoting our site with Bellarine Tourism. This is now on hold.

After receiving our rate notice I contacted COGG and was advised that the objection would not be considered as the property is now listed as mixed use.

The only option would be to cease our B&B and send a statutory declaration to that effect and the rates would then return to residential. I also noted to COGG they should at least apply some means test for small businesses to establish a fair and reasonable rate.

We decided to run the B&B to make a small income to cover some expenses and to provide unique accommodation to Geelong and Bellarine.

Guests have been thoroughly delighted in our facility and some have returned for a second visit.

Typically they visit the local wineries, restaurants, adventure park, a day at the beach and shopping.

We leave tourism brochures, local newspapers and Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s On magazine on a buffet at the front door to encourage visitors to experience our locality. We were excited by the development of the Bellarine Taste Trail and the potential it would bring.

With rising costs in utilities, COGG registration fee â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;food premisesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, web advertising, cleaning and maintenance labour â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a 40 per cent increase in rates â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and maintaining a reasonable tariff, the viability of continuing to run a B&B is marginal.

Currently we intend to honour new bookings up to the last confirmed booking in January 2011 (a booking from the UK for three nights) and then we will close down.

Dear Editor, In response to your article in the Surf Coast Times (September 7) about Amanda Slattery and her bike accident â&#x20AC;&#x201C; I am not a friend of Amanda nor do I know her, but I have to agree with her when she speaks about setting laws for bike riders.

I understand that people have the right to ride bikes, but it is the only sport I know of where you can practice racing on the roads and cause havoc for car traffic.

I have had a number of near misses with cyclists around the Surf Coast area who show no respect for cars on roads, or people on footpaths.

Bike riders mostly go out around dawn and dusk, the two most dangerous times for bikes, cars and pedestrians as the sun is rising and setting at these times.

It is hard enough dealing with peak hour traffic with the sun in your eyes, let alone coming across a group of bikes sitting four and five abreast across the lane that you are in and then having oncoming traffic making it impossible to swing around the bike riders.

Sometimes there is just nowhere to go and you have to hope that your brakes do the job.

Remember, cars are doing between 50 and 100 kilometres an hour and they are very unforgiving when they make contact with a person.

I see bikes on my way to work nearly every morning coming down the Surf Coast Highway through Jan Juc â&#x20AC;&#x201C; some going faster than the cars.

Surely this is not common sense as there is no way the bike could stop in a critical situation.

I would just like to say that nobody wants to hit a cyclist and then have to live with that for the rest of his life.

Rade and Robyn Momcilovic

Is it not trespassing?

Dear Editor, It was an interesting article on the front page of the Surf Coast Times of September 7.

I would like to ask councillor Dean Webster if he would open a fence on his property to allow the public to wander through his land.

If not, why is he proposing that the Catholic Church take away its fence?

Surely the church has as much right as anyone else to fence its property.

I would suggest that people using the church land as a thoroughfare are, in fact, trespassing.

By admitting that they have done so for a long period, should be taken as a guilty plea to the charge of trespass.

Well done councillors Dear Editor, I just wanted to extend publicly a huge thank you to all the councillors who voted to reject Bunnings coming to Torquay This was a very important decision for the future of the town and the small traders and, just as importantly, it shows that with good information and communication the shire has listened to what the people of the town really wanted for the future.

I know we still have a long way to go as this will go to VACT, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good to know we are all on the same page now.

Linda Cherubin Torquay

Story passes the blame Dear editor, In regard to your article â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Hit pedestrian urges new lawsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; on September 7, this article is just passing the blame and then creating an atmosphere of vindictiveness for drivers towards cyclists.

Over the past year we have had three fatalities

in the Surf Coast Shire involving cyclists. A great campaign â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Sharing the Roadâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; has been developed

by VicRoads and other members of the Victorian Bicycle Advisory Council, including Victoria Police, RACV, Bicycle Victoria, Cycling Promotion Fund and the Retail Cycle Traders Association.

The primary objective is to reduce the incidence of injury and death caused by the interaction between cyclists and motorists and in doing so hope to promote a safe and harmonious relationship of shared respect between the two groups.

With a little research you would have found that road expenditure in Australia is financed by all three levels of government. The presentation of government road related expenditures and motor vehicle revenues does not imply that there is any direct linkage between the two.

On the contrary, revenue collected by governments from most taxes and charges on motor vehicles is paid into consolidated revenue accounts, along with income from other sources. Therefore, all tax payers contribute to the maintenance of our roads.

The cyclist (name withheld) involved in the accident with Amanda Slattery is a cyclist, car user and a tax payer. He was riding on the road within the designated speed limit, had night lights mounted on his bike.

Amanda Slattery, however, was walking in the middle of the road at dawn. It is unfortunate the accident occurred, however, Amanda Slattery has only herself to blame.

I could continue writing to try and express my disillusion with the Surf Coast Times but all I can really do is plea for you to write an article which highlights the benefits of cycling for health and the environment.

Kathy Seoane Jan Juc

Urgent action required Dear Editor, Over 95 per cent of the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s scientists agree that it is a fact that human beings are affecting the levels of CO2 in our atmosphere, and that this is having an impact upon global earth and sea temperatures.

Even former sceptics such as the high profile â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;sceptical environmentalistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Professor Bjorn Lomborg are now urgently calling on governments to address CO2 emissions. Hopefully we can now move beyond this part of the debate and our governments can go about the business of addressing how we can reduce this impact.

Facts such as Alan Barronâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x201C; relating to the CO2 emissions of volcanic eruptions â&#x20AC;&#x201C; are difficult to consider within the same argument, as the CO2 emissions he speaks of are completely outside of human control.

To change something within our control â&#x20AC;&#x201C; humansourced CO2 emissions â&#x20AC;&#x201C; can only help reduce the impacts of climate change.

Any reduction in emissions is worthwhile, and not a â&#x20AC;&#x153;pointless and futile exerciseâ&#x20AC;?, as pointed out

by Mr Barron.

Whether this be through a carbon tax, forest preservation or otherwise, urgent action is required now. And that is a fact.

SPREADING CONTRACTOR LOOKING AFTER YOUR SOIL

Unhealthy soils are unproductive soils. Like the human body, soils require essential vitamins and minerals to support good health. Excess water leaches away vital trace elements and compaction from over stocking retards grass growth. When soil is down in condition it gets diseased thus harbouring bacteria, fungi and parasites affecting your livestock.Fertiliser, lime and gypsum provide essential nutrients the soil requires to prevent disease and promote good growth.

Cowrie Market calling

BY ELEANOR WOODS SOUK season kicks off in style this month when Torquay Cowrie Market plants its spring seed for a summer of growth, colour and creativity.

Cowrie Market organisers, Mark Trinham and Kyla Vinton, have been driving the event for the past five years.

“It is just such a fantastic market and is in such a beautiful location. People come again and again for

the atmosphere, the fun, the food, the produce and the live music,” Trinham said.

The monthly event kicks off on Torquay Esplanade between Gilbert and Anderson Street, this Sunday, and will run from 10am until 3pm every third Sunday of each month until the end of April next year.

“We are excited that market season is upon us again. The spring and summer season is starting which is always refreshing,” Trinham said.

The artist and musician involvement has been an integral part of developing the market as a place for local performers to play to a live audience.

“We have some amazing music at the markets.

There’s a real lack of opportunities for musicians to play live in Torquay,” Trinham said.

“I think it’s important to give performers that opportunity – whether they are an experienced group or an emerging artist.”

For the past decade, both Trinham and Vinton have

been involved with the Surf Coast Arts Commitee, which organises the event.

“We’ve seen the market grow so much during that time. It has developed into something very special,” Trinham said.

“Our focus is creative, handmade produce, arts, crafts, fresh food, and environmentally friendly products. It is also a social event… people come along to meet up with friends and enjoy the best the region has on offer.”

New look for Barwon Water BARWON Water has a fresh, new look.

The corporation has launched its updated visual identity, which was developed through a community competition to find a “brand that encapsulates the essence and future direction of Barwon Water”.

More than 100 submissions were received in the Make A Splash competition, with elements of the three winning entries, submitted by Mitchell Cox (Community), GSDM (Business) and Josiah Combridge (Education), combined to produce the new identity.

Barwon Water board director, Diane James, said the refreshed brand was in response to a customer perception survey in which customers called for a ‘new Barwon Water’ that showed

greater leadership, was more consultative and provided education, advice and support to the community and business.

“The first thing customers will notice is the new look, but the rebranding process actually goes deeper than that. It is about the way Barwon Water does business,” she said.

Torquay based GSDM production director, Shane McGrath, said their business entry was based on Barwon Water’s link to the environment.

“It incorporates a leaf, which represents sustainability and the environment, and water droplet. The two shapes are almost intertwined, or working together, just as Barwon Water works with the environment, community and as a team,” McGrath said.

Marketgoers get into the swing of summer during a dance workshop by Wild Moves at Cowrie market, in Torquay.

RYLOCK CONTINUES TO SET THE PACE Rylock’s Murray Riccardi said the company can now virtually manufacture a window to what the customer, architect or building designer wants to use to complement or enhance the overall design.

The new G3 thermally improved suite boasts all the existing Rylock features that have made it so sought after by discerning homebuilders – such as the extensive use of stainless steel fixings and operating mechanisms, mitre cut frames, superior weatherseals and superior latches, catches and locks.

Riccardi said that the new bi-fold doors incorporate three-point locking and were so well designed that they can be used in the most exposed locations along our notorious, often wild and windy coastline.

The bi-fold doors offer a great alternative to the

FOR SOME time now, Rylock Windows has been working behind the scenes to put an exciting new product on the Australian building products market.

In keeping with the push for greener homes that consume less energy, Rylock’s new Generation Three (G3) window and door range boasts a lot of new features, not the least of which is a six-star energy rating.

Originally the first to offer the best in energy efficiency with their now market leading double glazed windows at an affordable price, the new window and door range is offered in a greatly expanded range of double glazed opening types, all of which offer even larger sizes than have previously been available.

classic sliding door; fully opening to provide clear access from a room to an outdoor living area up to six metres wide. They can also be manufactured as a kitchen window, providing the perfect servery for outside dining.

Another innovation is the ‘in-line frame’, which means the over reveal and outer frame dimensions are the same, or parallel, making framing set-up and installation simpler in the multitude of external cladding used today.

Twenty-five years ago over 90 per cent of homes were traditional brick veneer, but these days the exterior can be almost anything, even the straw used by one of the three little pigs in the nursery rhyme.

“As well as keeping up with customer orders, we

are making the time to progressively replace our existing showroom windows and doors with the new G3 products,” Riccardi said.

“Although we almost need a bigger showroom to display the full range of products in the new range, the showroom which adjoins the factory is progressing nicely, with the new G3 range on show constantly expanding.”

Rylock is located a stone’s throw from the Ford Factory on Melbourne Road, at 61-63 Morgan Street, North Geelong, and can be contacted on 5278 8711 or 1800 066 628.

Platform aids anglers LOCAL and visiting anglers to Apollo Bay can now enjoy improved access on the banks of the Barham River.

Executive director of Fisheries Victoria, Anthony Hurst, said more than $30,000 had been provided from the Enhanced Recreational Fishing Programme towards building a fully accessible fishing platform and other associated on-ground works.

“The new platform, at the bottom of Gambier Street, is spacious and allows anglers of all ages and abilities to fish comfortably for species such as black bream, estuary perch and brown trout,”

Hurst said.

“A bitumen car parking area has also been created along with an access path leading to the platform.

“Before these improvements were made anglers had to contend with unstable and slippery banks.

“The new platform provides anglers with a much safer option for fishing this great little river.”

However, this is not the only improvement that anglers will see on future visits to Apollo Bay. Two new fish cleaning tables are soon to be

installed though the Enhanced Recreational Fishing Programme.

“One table will be positioned at the boat ramp and will cater for the offshore anglers,” Hurst said.

“Another table specifically designed for installation on piers will be positioned on the main wharf to service the large volume of landbased anglers that this structure attracts.”

For more information about the Enhanced Recreational Fishing Programme, contact the Department of Primary Industries on 136 186 or visit www.dpi.vic.gov.au/enhancedfishing

Warning on BigPond email hoax TELSTRA has moved to remind Surf Coast and Bellarine Peninsula residents of the dangers of hoax emails following reports of an email scam claiming to be from BigPond.

Telstra Country Wide Area general manager for Geelong and the Surf Coast, Jodi Manion, said the hoax email is among thousands that circulate around Australia every year and puts customers at risk of fraud when they inadvertently respond and provide their personal details.

“Telstra urges locals to be very suspicious of emails sent by people unknown to them, containing misspelt words or directing them to a link,” Manion said.

“These hoax emails are often malicious and designed to obtain private information such as credit card details and passwords, or potentially expose your computer to a damaging virus.

The best advice is to ignore and delete these messages.”

Telstra’s warning follows research indicating that while there has been a global decline in hoax emails, also known as phishing attacks, scammers are increasingly pretending to be organisations such as telecommunication and insurance companies.

“Telstra and BigPond will never send an email requesting passwords, account verification, credit card details or other personal details by asking you to ’click on a link’,” Manion said.

“You should only provide this type of information in response to an expected request or one you have initiated.”

“We have also established a page at www. bigpond.com/help/ContactUs/MisuseService where customers can report hoax emails that appear to be from Telstra or BigPond.”

Otway Fly unveils new tour FOR A fun-filled day out, the Otway Fly has your needs covered.

And starting next month a new attraction will open in the shape of the Otway Fly Zip Line Tour.

The tour is a unique eco-wilderness adventure that takes place in the magnificent Otways rainforest.

The first of its kind in Victoria, the zip line tour involves traversing from one platform to another connected by tree platforms called ‘cloud stations’, and attached to steel cable suspended up to 30 metres above the forest floor.

The concept

Zip line tour participants will zip amongst the treetops through the old and ancient forest of the Otways Ranges while enjoying amazing views.

This exciting adventure lasts three-and-a-half hours and will have you flying on a series of cable spans from cloud station to cloud station and enjoying some features on this tour that are not available on any other zip line tour in the world.

Visitors will see the trees and forest ecology in a new light and learn about our growing and vibrant forests and when you come back to ground, you’ll get to walk on and enjoy the Otway Fly Treetop Walk.

The tour is guided by trained and experienced guides who provide participants with an insight into the Otway forest’s history and its features and provide you with an experience you won’t forget.

The tour is classified as a ‘medium adrenalin’ activity.

How it works

When visitors arrive at Otway Fly Tree Top Adventures they are met by the zip line guides, who conduct a full briefing on the tour, including the fitting of safety equipment and all safety standards of the tour, followed by a session where full body harness, pulleys and climbing equipment is issued and checked and a trial session on the zip line simulator occurs.

Tours will be of no more than 12 participants per tour, including two guides.

Everyone is supplied and fitted with complete safety equipment, including helmet, harness, and all attachments to secure participants to the cables and guides will ensure that each participant’s equipment is comfortable and secure.

More information

The tour will operate seven days a week, all year round and in all weather, with tours leaving the visitor centre at hourly intervals.

The tour is suitable for all healthy individuals aged from 3 to over 80.

Bookings are now being taken and are essential. For more information and to book, phone 1800 300 477 or visit www. Enjoy the thrill of the new zip line tour or perhaps a stroll through the trees is more your style. otwayfly.com.au

‘Great start’ celebrated

By Enzo Raimondo, CEO REIV

First home buyer assistance WHEN the current First Home Owner Grant was introduced to compensate buyers for the impact of the GST in 2000, it was set at $7,000 – and at that time the median price of a house was $222,500.

In the past decade the median price has more than doubled to $540,500, yet the grant has remained at $7,000.

Over that time the Victorian State Government has created an additional scheme, the First Home Bonus, and that is currently between $2,000 and $11,000, depending on the type and location of the home.

As a rule they provide higher assistance for new homes and even higher assistance for new homes in regional Victoria.

The Federal Government also introduced the First Home Owner Boost to help first home buyers during the Global Financial Crisis (GFC).

These schemes saw the proportion of loans given to first home buyers increase by 50 per cent and it ensured that house prices in the more affordable segment of the market did not record any substantial falls during the GFC. Now that the boost has ceased and the State Government has provided no funding for the bonus to continue past June 30 this year, it is timely and sensible to reassess the assistance provided to first home buyers.

The REIV has asked the State Government to review first home owner assistance as part of the budget for the next financial year.

The review should consider replacing the different forms of assistance with either a doubling of the grant of $14,000 to ensure it maintains the value set in 2000, or replacing the grant and bonus with a total exemption from stamp duty.

BARRY Plant in Torquay celebrated its second birthday recently – toasting a “great start” to business.

Owners Glenn and Kylie Hardman and the team have worked extremely hard over the last 24 months, putting the new business on the map.

“It’s been just fantastic. We work so well together… we have such an enthusiastic, hardworking, caring team,” Kylie said.

Glenn agreed, saying he was proud to be working in a place such as Torquay.

“It is such a nice community.

And a lovely place to be,” he said.

Since the real estate business began, the team has celebrated many successes, including the phenomenal sale of a $6.25million property as well as being awarded Barry Plant’s Property Management Growth Award in its first year.

The Torquay office also has two accredited property managers on staff.

The Barry Plant group as a whole has recorded consecutive record sales for the past 18 months in what Glen described as a “down turning” market.

“Barry Plant remained strong and we like to think we’ve contributed to that success,” Glenn said.

The Torquay team said that as well as hard work it was the support of

the Barry Plant group that ensured its success.

“The systems, management, philosophy and ongoing training the group provide is just great,”

“We are so lucky to be working in such a great place. I think we’ve been embraced by the market.

We love it here – it’s home,” Kylie said.

GREAT OCEAN ROAD REAL ESTATE APOLLO BAY YOUR SALES SPECIALISTS

THIS YEARS RECORD RESULT WILL HAVE THE MARKET TALKING! A residential home along the Great Ocean Road in Apollo Bay has just sold for a record price.

Darren Brimacombe from Great Ocean Road Real Estate says “the sale will certainly have the market talking.” The property is positioned on the Great Ocean Road in a strip known as ‘the golden mile’ on the northern side of the town.

The market activity has been excellent in the last 9 months and we have come through the Global Financial Crisis. With continued buyer enquiry and sales we are now starting to see consistent sales back in the middle to top-end. Although the demand in the Bellarine and areas closer to Melbourne have been steady through the last 2 years, the last 6-9 months has seen a resurgence of buyers back to Apollo Bay and surrounding regions. With the bi-partisan government announcements on the road extension to Colac and the excellent value that the Apollo Bay market offers, combined with an increasing demand on the populations of Melbourne, Apollo Bay is certainly well positioned to continue to be a great investment and coastal holiday destination.

Darren Brimacombe 0418 317 424

Eureka – it’s Grinspoon ENDURING rockers Grinspoon will hit Geelong’s Eureka Hotel tomorrow night as part of their huge regional tour.

The New South Wales band have been touring along the east coast of Australia as part of the promotion of their sixth studio album, Six To Midnight.

Although the album was launched in September last year, the band only decided on a tour to promote it months ago, and were quick to pencil in Geelong as a venue to play.

Since forming in Lismore in 1995, Grinspoon has gained a huge following courtesy of a number of hits.

They burst onto the scene in 1995 when they won the Triple J-sponsored Unearthed competition for Lismore with their song, Sickfest.

After pleasing success with their opening two albums, Grinspoon’s sound became a little more mainstream with the release of their 2002 offering, New Detention.

The album peaked at number two on the ARIA charts – a feat matched by their 2007 album Alibis & Other Lies – while 2004’s Thrills, Kills and Sunday Pills entered at number four.

The following year, Thrills, Kills and Sunday Pills won the band their only ARIA for Best Rock Album.

Grinspoon had built a strong local following after their rise, and they were regulars at Australian music festivals.

In March 2006, the band had the honour of performing Hard Act To Follow and Better Off Alone at the Commonwealth Games closing ceremony in Melbourne.

The Eureka Hotel appearance will include performances from special guests Amy Meredith and The Snowdroppers.

Six To Midnight was an immediate hit when released late last year, debuting at number four in the ARIA charts and winning mountains of praise from fans and reviewers alike.

The first two singles Comeback and Summer, and the latest single, Premonitions, have received huge reactions, gaining high rotation on most major television and radio stations Overwhelmed by demand to play shows in regional areas, the band decided to undertake a regional tour of Tasmania, the ACT, New South Wales, Victoria and South Australia.

Legendary US producer Rick Will (Johnny Cash, No Doubt) was behind Six To Midnight’s

production and mixing duties, and has delivered one of Grinspoon’s finest records to date.

The band returned to their spiritual home town of Byron Bay to record the album, which helped them capture their affinity for a good, live, hard rock record – something the band really wanted to achieve.

The Eureka Hotel is located at 98 Little Malop Street, Geelong. For more information, phone 5229 5266.

Tuesday 14 September 2010

with Mary-Ellen Belleville

You canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really serve ice-cream in tights... can you?

SOME people have weird ideas about how best to store things.

Wads of notes hidden under the mattress or in Milo tins in the backyard perhaps, but storing icecream in tightsâ&#x20AC;Ś well I never!

I think youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll enjoy this rather amusing story, and I know youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll enjoy the recipe for the semi-freddo dessert that is so easy to make and will be a huge hit with family, or for a sensational dessert of the best kind, as it must be prepared in advance .

A very dear friend of mine was speaking on the phone to her about-to-be-new-son-in-law after the usual dining hour one evening.

Both households had finished dinner, but as they lived nearby, she asked if they would like to come over to enjoy dessert and coffee? The invitation extended was welcome, but ice-cream in tights?

Just what sort of dessert was future mother-in-law offering?

My friend, acting as host, had extended an invitation to share a delicious chocolate iced confection available in the supermarket called â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Enticeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. Her son-in-law misheard what she had said, and in true mother and son-style humour,

thought that the offer was to partake of some icecream in tights.

It was, of course, all quite harmless, a simple misunderstanding and the coffee and Entice went down a treat!

Homemade ice cream

I would like to share with you a truly perennial favourite recipe for a homemade ice cream that is so easy to make.

I was first given this recipe by a cousin, but he realised it was originally printed in the summer 1982 edition of Vogue Entertaining. You know what a bowerbird of recipe collecting I am! Well, hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the proof!

I have made this delicious semi-freddo so many times, and it is always so yummy.

Tortini is one of those moreish recipes that is lucky to make it to the tin for baking, or in this case freezing â&#x20AC;&#x201C; you will be fighting over who can lick the bowl.

Amaretti biscuits are available from delicatessens and some supermarkets while the Masala â&#x20AC;&#x201C; yes, I know it is rather old fashioned â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but

 �

S

you just might have some at the back of the liquor cupboard.

There is no real substitute for the flavour in this recipe, so line up at the local bottleshop if you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t find that hidden-away bottle of Masala.

You will find that Tortini will soon become a firm favourite for all the family, and like so many recipes, you can play around with it.

For example, present it as an â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;adultâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; version of a cream-between by serving a slice between two lightly fried wonton wrappers, dusted with icing sugar. Or embellish it with a chocolate sauce made by gently melting some dark chocolate with a good dollop of cream.

If you fancy, melt some chocolate and make motifs using a small piping bag â&#x20AC;&#x201C; squiggles, butterflies, dragonfly shapes â&#x20AC;&#x201C; as a dessert at a dinner party these decorative motifs add the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;wow factorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; to the presentation of a scrumptious but light finish to the meal.

Enjoy, and you probably know my â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;otherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; philosophy by nowâ&#x20AC;Ś if you run out of time to make the Tortini, cheat and resort to the Entice (chocolate ice-cream in tights)!

BROUGHT TO YOU BY

THE RHONE Valley is home to some of the great red wines of France.

Stellar sub-regions like Chateauneuf-du-Pape, Cornas, Cote Rotie, and Hermitage readily spring to mind and evince thoughts of seriously seductive wines of great structure, elegance and seamless character.

The region as a whole extends south from Vienne just below Lyon in central France and along the valley of the Rhone River to Avignon. It is divided into two major areas – the Northern and Southern Rhone.

The Southern Rhone wines include those from areas such as Chateauneuf-du-Pape, Gigondas and Cotes-du-Rhone (‘Hills of The Rhone’ – an area which comprises 16 Villages), and are generally blends of Shiraz, Grenache and Mourvedre.

The most sought-after Cotes-Du-Rhone wines come from the villages of Cairanne, Rasteau, Vacqueyras and Seguret.

The wines are regarded around the world as great value and are known and loved for their supple, spicy complexities and rich, savoury fruit characters.

Last week I attended a terrific tasting of new releases from this region (plus some great Italian and Portuguese wines too), and here’s a few I really liked…maybe you will too.

Domaine De L’Ameillaud Cotes Du Rhone 2007 ($24) From the village of Cairanne, this is choc full of rustic regional spice and character with deeper, brooding colour, flavour and complexity. Easily one of the bigger, more fuller examples I’ve seen for some time due to the heat of the vintage, it’s loaded to the gills with brambly dark raspberry accented fruit, fruit cake nuance and richness to burn… very good.

Domaine Raspail-Ay Gigondas 2007 ($50)

W E D N E S D AY N I G H T S

LOCALS NIGHT

Special meal with glass of house wine or tap beer

The highly acclaimed/respected Rhone wine commentator, Remington Norman, rates this estate as “One of Gigonda’s best wines… this is a five-star domaine.” Founded in 1854, this has only 18 hectares under vine. Terrifically ‘dense’, I thought this was super stuff indeed – it has an edge of ‘wow’ factor about it. Once again, a powerful blend of Grenache, Shiraz and Mourvedre that is very rich, dark and brooding with spice, pepper and grainy tannins all woven together and showing lovely balance… bring it on.

F R I D AY N I G H T S

CURRY NIGHT

Roger Sabon Chateauneuf-Du-Pape ‘Les Olivets’ 2007 ($70) This was so good that I took a bottle home from the tasting to enjoy with dinner that night. I keep banging on about texture and ‘mouth feel’ and this is a great example of what I’m on about. The ‘weight’ of the wine was just perfect, rich, supple and complex yes, but all in proportion and so drinkable which belied the 14.5 per cent alcohol level. Definitely one for a special occasion and good food.

Sail away with a magical story THE 2010 GPAC Bendigo Bank Family Magic programme continues during the school holidays with Boats, an enchanting tale from Terrapin Puppet Theatre.

Utilising physical theatre, acrobatics, enchanting story telling and breathtaking puppetry, Boats is the story of Jof and Nic, two sailors who meet through bizarre circumstances involving a chicken, a deserted island and a sombrero.

With his new friend, Jof begins the journey home, using knots to solve problems, songs to lift spirits, and a message in a bottle to remind him of the beautiful harpist, Eliza Turk.

Boats a story of two mariners fleeing their past and embracing adventure.

This is a poetic show where the magic is created in front of the audience: it is classic story-telling done up close. Jof and Nic transform the world in front of you using everyday objects that would be found on a boat’s galley.

Each scene is a unique and highly inventive use of space and puppetry: a boat is made from a piece of bread and ropes; an island is made from a hat; a circus is made from a jacket, and a storm is made in a teacup.

A moving story of friendship, Boats features a twist at the end, which will leave a lump in your throat and a smile on your face.

Terrapin Puppet Theatre presents Boats in the Drama Theatre at GPAC for two shows only this Saturday, September 18, at 11am and 2pm.

Tickets are available on 5225 1200 or online at www.gpac.org.au

Drysdaleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s big family fun day Tuesday 14 September 2010

MELBOURNE four-piece outfit, Skipping Girl Vinegar, will return to Drysdaleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Potato Shed Multi-Arts Centre to headline the 2010 Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Week Family Fun Day. The contemporary, alt-acoustic group who delighted audiences at the Shed in March, will provide a free performance on the venueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s outdoor stage in a highlight of what is expected to be even bigger and better than last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s inaugural community festival.

The free Family Fun Day will bring families together in a fun-filled environment to celebrate the arts and life on the Bellarine Peninsula when it is held on Sunday, October 24.

More than 3,000 people flocked to last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s event which showcased performers, sporting clubs and community groups in a day-long celebration of family life.

This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s festival will see the return of popular attractions such as Leedy the Storyteller, childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s high tea, community theatre showcases, an animal farm, face painting and Glitter Monkeys art activities.

New additions to the fun will include the chance to ride the Eastern Beach train, Zumba showcases and an Australian football handball competition.

The festivities will kick off at 11am with a free performance of the Three Little Pigs Go Green by Theatre 3Triple2.

Children will have the chance to participate in art and craft workshops, theatre and dance demonstrations, plaster and easel painting, or perform on stage during an open mic session.

Roving entertainers, musicians, face painting, stalls and games will also be on offer.

The Family Fun Day will kick off the Potato Shedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Week festivities, which will include performing arts workshops for local Prep children held throughout the week.

The Potato Shed is particularly keen to hear from any performers, musicians, band or community groups, including dance, ballet, karate and sporting clubs, who are interested in performing or hosting a free activity on the day.

To register your interest in being part of the fun, contact Lisa Warwick on 5251 1998.

For all other details about the Family Fun Day or Geelong Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Week activities, contact the Potato Shed on 5251 1998.

Storytelling in Torquay Tuesday 14 September 2010

SURF insider Phil Jarratt spilled the industry’s beans in his book Salts and Suits and is in Torquay this month to speak about his work.

No stranger to controversy, the Noosabased author knew he would ruffle a few feathers in surf company boardrooms when he decided to write the “warts and all” insider’s account of the rise of surfing from cottage to global industry.

After all, for 40 years Jarratt was friends with many of the surf brand founders, worked at management level for two major surfing brands, and had witnessed first-hand many of the industry’s best and worst moments.

So, when asked why he would put these friendships at risk he replied as any great storyteller would.

“Firstly, I take the old journo’s defence – it’s a bloody good story,” he said.

“Secondly, I think it’s a very positive story about a bunch of surf bums who survived wipeouts in the surf and the financial markets, drug busts, and the constant pressure to act like grown-ups, to create a multi-billion dollar industry.

“Thirdly, I think the surf industry

has matured enough to handle a bit of in-depth analysis. If anyone gets really pissed off, it’ll be interesting to see if it’s a salt or a suit.”

Jarratt will be putting that to the test when he gives a book presentation at Tigerfish in Bell Street, Torquay, this Sunday.

“I suppose some people might see that as a bit like taking coal to Newcastle, but in fact many of the favourable comments I’ve had about the book have come from people who actually work in the industry but weren’t aware of its fascinating history,” Jarratt said.

“There are more industry pioneers in Torquay than anywhere else, but I think the book paints them in a very good light. They’re the ones who have kept it credible while others just saw money.”

The “salts” and “suits” of the book’s title are industry jargon, referring to the process of replacing surfers with business professionals as the companies grow beyond their cottage roots.

Phil Jarratt will present Salts and Suits at Tigerfish Gallery in Bell Street, Torquay, on Sunday from 1pm.

Comedy explores family and faith A HIGHLY anticipated new work by one of Australia’s most regarded young playwrights, Tommy Murphy, opens at Geelong Performing Arts Centre this month as part of the Alcoa Theatre Season 2010.

Gwen in Purgatory is a portrait of contemporary family life, centred on 90-year-old Gwen.

Gwen woke up one morning to discover that purgatory is sitting alone in a new house in a new sub-division on the edge of town, trying to work out if the remote in her hand operates the TV, the air-con or the fan-forced oven.

But the kids are coming round and Father Ezekiel is on his way to bless the house, so the beginning of the end is looking up…

Gwen’s brood of ordinary souls is battling along in a changing world and wringing out the last drops of their matriarch’s faith. Between them they may just find their way to some sort of forgiveness.

This La Boite Theatre Company production is directed by Neil Armfield and

features a stellar cast, including Melissa Jaffer, Grant Dodwell, Sue Ingleton, Pacharo Mzembe and Nathaniel Dean.

Murphy has quickly earned a reputation as a writer with plenty of talent.

His play, Holding the Man, was first staged in 2006 in Sydney and is now considered one of Australia’s most successful productions.

The 30-year-old has twice won the New South Wales Premier’s Literary Award, as well as the Philip Parsons Young Playwrights Award. He is regarded as one of the country’s most formidable playwrights: canny, dangerous and very funny.

Gwen in Purgatory is Murphy’s illumination of the fear and humour at the heart of Australia’s Irish-Catholic inheritance.

A Victorian exclusive, Gwen in Purgatory comes to GPAC after premiering in Sydney.

Geelong performances are in The Playhouse at 8pm Thursday, September 23 and Friday, September 24; and at 1pm and 8pm on Saturday, September 25.

For more information or to book tickets, phone GPAC on 5225 1200 or visit www. gpac.org.au

Funny guys confirmed for Falls Festival date THE FALLS Music and Arts Festival has announced a line-up full of fun, frivolity and cutting-edge humour.

While Falls is well known for its music, the festival has continued to build on its comedic offering, and this year some of the biggest names in comedy will be attending.

Tom Gleeson, The Bedroom Philosopher, Michael Chamberlin, Josh Earl, Dave Thornton, Tommy Dassalo and Nazeem Hussain have all been confirmed to appear at the Lorne festival, which kicks off on December 28 and runs for four massive days.

In total, more than 50 performers and comedians will appear at the festival, along with there being The Falls Arts Village, films, spectacular natural amphitheatres and free camping.

Tom Gleeson is a regular on television, having made appearances on Good News Week, The 7pm Project and Thank God Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re Here, as well as at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival Gala.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s on stage, however, where he really shines.

The Bedroom Philosopher is a triple threat of charming wordsmith, intelligent comedian and inventive musician.

He recently released his third studio album, Songs From The 86 Tram, taken from the multi-award winning show of the same name which won Directorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Choice at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival last year.

Michael Chamberlinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s boyish looks may initially deceive but watch out as he counters this unleashing his sharp, intelligent,

75

quick wit. With various TV comedy writing jobs under his belt, Chamberlin has also performed six solo stand-up shows, four of them in the Melbourne International Comedy Festival.

Traversing TV, radio and stage â&#x20AC;&#x201C; hosting, performing, acting, dj-ing, Dave Thornton is one busy guy. His solo debut performance at the 2007 Melbourne International Comedy Festival garnered a nomination for â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Best Newcomerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; for his show, Euromission.

Josh Earl is a regular on many radio stations, including Melbourneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Triple R, Triple J and even 774 ABC Local Radio.

His brand of hip, sharp, loveable musical comedy has seen him in splendid company supporting the likes of Rod Quantock and Arj Barker in his early years on stage.

Tommy Dassalo combines masterful storytelling with stand-up comedy. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s appeared on television shows such as The Librarians & Sleuth 101, written jokes for shows such as Rove, Talkinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Bout Your Generation and TV Burp and has been a featured cast member on Channel 31â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s award-winning Studio A. Nazeem Hussain is one of Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most incisive and daring comedians. Hussain was part of Fear of a Brown Planet, which won the 2008 Melbourne International Comedy Festival â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Best Newcomer Awardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. The show shocked and awed audiences at home and abroad with trademark confrontational style.

Investment Properties – When and Where?

BY MIKE WALMSLEY EXPERIENCED property investors will give an immediate answer as to when is the best time to purchase an investment property. The answer is “yesterday”. The reason behind their response is obvious to most and it is simply because property continues to increase in value, and for this reason will always be a very sound investment.

Since records commenced property has increased by a compounded 10.4% each year.

Buying an investment property is a business decision so it requires the purchaser to understand the fundamentals to achieve the best result.

Anyone can buy real estate but not everyone will profit greatly without committing time to the process. Opportunities extend far and wide throughout Australia. At this point in time to buy locally in the Geelong area is wise move and there are also excellent buying opportunities in both Adelaide & Perth.

IMPORTANT TIPS

The process Investment properties should be bought without emotion. The moment you involve your personal tastes the deal will be spoilt. Investing is all about numbers and if the deal “stacks up’ it should seriously be considered.

Finance Have your finance in place. This will allow for you to place an unconditional offer on a property and all vendors enjoy seeing a line ruled through “special conditions”.

Budget Work within a budget. Your broker/bank will

advise you of your borrowing capacity. Remember to add a 5% sum to your potential purchase price to allow for stamp duty, legal costs etc. If your are purchasing a $400,000 property you will require access to $420,000.

Where to buy?

Always consider infrastructure when purchasing an investment property. Tenants are tenants for a good reason. The reason is that in the majority of cases that they cannot afford their own home so they lease a property and pay rent. Many who pay rent are saving for their own home. If you are saving or simply paying rent and enjoying life you will want value for your rent payment. Value comes from being close to many of the things that are important to you and these include public transport, schools, shopping centres and sporting facilities.

Auctions Avoid the auction situation if it is at all possible.

Why? The answer is that most properties sold at auction sell above the reserve price. If several parties are interested in the same property then the purchase price is often inflated in a bidding war.

Decision making The worst decisions are made by two types of purchasers. They are those who are greedy and those who cannot swallow their pride. When purchasing be sensible and be fair. Make a genuine offer which will allow the communication channels to flow freely. A “silly” low offer on a property will harm your relationship with the agent and the vendor.

“Remember make decisions with your mind, not your heart”.

Market View with tracey watts

Fudging the Data IT WILL be interesting to see if a story that was broken on the weekend by Kris Sayce, editor of Money Morning Australia, attracts much media attention this week.

The basis of the story is a presentation lodged with the Australian Stock Exchange by the Commonwealth Bank of Australia entitled “Australian residential housing mortgages: CBA mortgage book secure”.

The presentation itself is hardly alarming – an overview of the Australian housing market (a market to which the CBA is significantly exposed) to be presented to international investors (a set of investors upon which the CBA is significantly dependent).

As a result one would expect the CBA to be trying to convince their much-needed overseas investors that everything is perfectly fine with the Australian housing market; nothing to worry about here, please keep lending us money.

So what is the ‘story’ that broke with respect to this presentation?

The CBA has been found out fudging the data that allowed

them to come to this optimistic conclusion.

The CBA’s presentation compares house price to income ratios in Australia with those from other coastal cities but has purposely used differing data for the comparisons.

Kris Sayce picked up on the fiddle. “In order to make their point, the CBA have used the Demographia numbers as a reference point for all the nonAustralian cities, yet they’ve used the UBS numbers for the Australian cities”.

Why? “Simply because if they’d used the Demographia numbers it would draw exactly the opposite conclusion to the argument they’re trying to make”.

The obvious question to ask is why would CBA do such an amateurishly deceptive thing?

Most analysts would be incredibly familiar with this data and bound to pick up the misrepresentation. This can only reflect badly on the bank and convince skittish international investors that perhaps all is not so well.

The giant pigs are coming THIS monthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Piggy Bank Appeal aims to raise more than $1million and is the biggest annual fundraiser for Very Special Kids.

The appeal runs until September 26, with businesses, community groups and towns getting together to organise activities which raise money for this unique Victorian organisation.

This year is an exciting year for Very Special Kids, which celebrates a major milestone of 25 years supporting families caring for children with life-threatening illnesses.

Piggy Bank Appeal activities are often centred around a visit from one of the five giant (700-kilogram) piggy banks named Penelope, Percy, Princess, Patrick and George.

Events include barbecues and fundraisers, which have been organised by Piggy Bank Appeal supporters in suburbs and towns across the state to coincide with the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Piggy Trailsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;We need to raise more than $1million from the 2010 Piggy Bank Appeal so Very Special Kids can continue to support more than 850 Victorian families caring for a child with a life-threatening illness,â&#x20AC;? said David Agnew, chief executive officer of Very Special Kids.

The first Piggy Bank Appeal was held in 1998 and since then it has gone from strength to strength and each year it is one of the most fun and exciting fundraising appeals in Victoria.

The Piggy Trails are the highlight of the Piggy Bank Appeal.

For two weeks, a group of volunteers drive the giant piggy banks throughout the State, visiting hundreds of towns and suburbs. At each Piggy Trail stop, volunteers collect donations, sell merchandise and distribute information about Very Special Kids.

Penelope the Piggy Bank will visit Colac this Friday from 12.15pm-4.45pm along Murray Street.

Jimmy Barnes aims to provide â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;a givingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Xmas gift ROCK legend Jimmy Barnes, his singer/song-writer daughter Elly-May who has cerebral palsy, and chart-topping solo artist Ricki-Lee Coulter, have joined children with cerebral palsy in a unique project to spread Christmas cheer and raise money for research.

As part of Band Together 2010, the group has recorded two Christmas carols which are available as video eCards for companies to purchase and send to clients and customers in lieu of traditional Christmas cards and gifts.

All proceeds from sales of the video eCards go to

the Cerebral Palsy Foundation for research to find the prevention and cure of cerebral palsy.

Every 15 hours an Australian child is born with cerebral palsy, making it the most common physical disability in childhood.

Chief executive officer of the Cerebral Palsy Foundation, Rob White, said Band Together 2010 was a unique way for people to spread Christmas cheer and at the same time help fund vital research. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The video eCard is a Christmas gift that will keep on giving,â&#x20AC;? White said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is fun, jovial and inspiring, and represents the

recent 30-day challenge and has come out energized, rejuvenated and ready to step into spring.

The client lost more than five kilograms during the 30-day programme and has urged others to follow suit. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Totally do-able,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Can you successfully take on the 30-day challenge at Curves? Absolutely!! Many of us could look at our lifestyles and appreciate the benefits of some changes to our eating and exercise habits.

QUAY LANDSCAPES AND LAWNS

Barrow of business ITâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S A family affair for Quay Landscapes and Lawns which is owned and operated by Torquayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hogan family.

Shaun Hogan, along with wife, Anne, and son, Paul, bring to the Surf Coast a wheelbarrow load of knowledge and experience in landscaping and custom gardens. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We do mostly landscape construction and go out of our way to create something special for people,â&#x20AC;?

Anne said.

Quay Landscapes and Lawns does rotary hoeing, landscaping, planting, retaining walls, water features, paving and drainage and also installs quality synthetic grasses. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Shaun is excellent at what he doesâ&#x20AC;Ś and he is

enjoying doing what he does,â&#x20AC;? Anne said.

One of Quay Landscapes and Lawnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proudest moments was turning a tip into a beautiful garden. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have worked on some spectacular projects and always try to give people exactly what they want,â&#x20AC;? Anne said.

The coupleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s son, Paul, brings to the business the eyes and skills of a graphic designer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He has such a fine eye for detail. He is pedantic.

It is so useful being able to see the bigger picture,â&#x20AC;?

Anne said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You can get a better idea of form and colour. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great having him on board. We just love it here in Torquay. We live and work in the area and the town has been really good to us. I doubt weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll ever leave.â&#x20AC;?

Crossword Solution

SEP 14 - SEP 20 2010

You’re a whirling dervish of energy as you tackle challenges and take on additional jobs but don’t come on too strong or you’ll scare others away! With the Moon, Venus and Mars all in your intimacy zone this week, you’re full of ardent and romantic feelings. So make sure you spend time with someone special who makes your heart sing.

Come on Crabs! Have you been putting your head in the sand, afraid to face the facts? Stop side-stepping problems and start facing them head-on. With Venus and Mars both in your creativity zone, don’t underestimate the power of your imagination. As birthday great Lauren Bacall observes “Imagination is the highest kite one can fly.”

Are you desperately holding onto a romance or friendship that you should be letting go of? (The tighter your Taurean grip, the more they’ll slip away.) Be proactive about forgiving others and moving forward.

You’ll feel especially creative and productive this week, so make sure you express your inner muse in your own particular way.

Your home is your castle, where you can wind down and relax after a busy day ‘performing’ out in the big wide world. This week is the ideal time to clean and redecorate your domestic space, as you turn your Lion’s den into an oasis of calm. When it comes to relationships, diplomacy will get you a lot further than dramas.

Thank goodness Mercury is moving forwards again, so domestic dramas should start to settle down. There’s a real streak of freedom activating your career zone so aim for the stars but keep your day-to-day plans grounded in reality. Attached or single, your love life is complicated and challenging at the moment - but it’s certainly not boring.

A tricky problem can be solved, as long as you keep things in perspective. Don’t expect loved ones to behave in predictable ways this weekend, as Jupiter and Uranus shake up your relationship zone.

Single Virgos – when it comes to dating, it’s time to move out of your comfort zone and choose someone who’s not your usual type.

It’s not a good week to hit the shops as you’re likely to buy expensive things based on fluctuating emotional desires. If you separate your wants from your needs, it will shorten your shopping list considerably.

With Saturn moving through your sign, it’s time to be responsible and thrifty, as you live within your means – for a change!

Capricorns are serious souls but, with Jupiter in your communication zone, it’s time to showcase your dry sense of humour. Be inspired by Roald Dahl (born on September 13) “A little nonsense now and then is cherished by the wisest men.” Be on your toes on Sunday, when financial or professional opportunities may come your way.

Prepare for a Jekyll and Hyde kind of week as the Moon, Venus and Mars all move through your sign. You’ll be at your passionate, proactive best – and your possessive and pushy worst. Sunday is the day when your special Scorpio magnetism really sparkles and shines.

Your motto for the coming week? Don’t use love as a weapon.

Money is unpredictable at the moment and having a ridiculously positive ‘Pollyanna attitude’ won’t help. If you think outside the square (and budget carefully) then you can turn your financial situation around. Don’t let your enthusiasm for a new project overtake your ability to knuckle down and get the job done. Patience is the key.

Changes are brewing on the home front, which will bring more freedom and adventure into your life. You’re feeling restless but finish uncompleted tasks before you launch ambitious new projects. We all know you’re a smart-cookie but take the time to explain things carefully, otherwise you’ll just come across as a Sagittarian smartaleck.

Are you feeling restless? With Jupiter and Uranus joining up in your sign, your wanderlust is probably switched onto high. So it’s the perfect time for a weekend escape – or to organize a heavenly holiday for later in the year. With Venus and Mars visiting your travel zone, love is likely with someone from another country or culture.

Ratings boost for local pair LOCAL professional surfers Nic Muscroft and Adam Robertson have returned from Europe both well established inside the top 100 on the ASP One world ratings.

Being inside that top 100 threshold has become important with the recent restructure to how professional surfers are ranked and which events they can and canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t compete in.

Prime rated events, of which there are about 12 per year, will only cater for the top 100 rated surfers and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s through these prime events that surfers can qualify for the

elite world championship events.

Muscroft is currently rated at 53 while Robertson, who had a number of big scoring winning round performances on the recent European leg, is at 83.

The pairâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s other travelling partner, Jack Perry, hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t had as good a season and sits at 165 on the ratings.

Over the coming month all three will remain at home and prepare for the final three crucial prime rated events of this season which take place in the United States, Canary Islands and Hawaii.

Matthew Wilson won A grade with 66 nett. B grade, Gavan Pitcher 71 nett, Len Timms for C grade and of course Wayne proudly donning the September Medal.

For the women, Kerry Bond, once again cleaning up before she leaves us with a great 71 nett. For B grade, Jean Pardy with 73.

Jeanette Barclay putted her way to the win with an amazing 28 putts.

Kerry defeated a gallant Dorothy Emerson on the 18th in the singles matchplay knockout. Kerry fronts up again to play for the captain trophy on Monday.

Sunday mixed Stableford and Gerry Lorkin blitzed the field with 46 points.

Also spotted on the course was Irene Ramsay, who has been missed in recent weeks, welcome back Irene.

After all this beautiful rain, which brings with it difficult times for our ground staff, I am ever surprised the way Steve and staff manage to bring our course up to a level that makes it a pleasure to play on. We, as all courses, have experienced enormous amounts of rain and while we can reap the rewards in the months to come via full dams, it is a monumental task to be able to present a very useable surface on which to play.

Only talented superintendents can manage this feat and we are very fortunate to have Steve and his team working for us, thank you.

Matt the master is plying his trade up on the border this week, so we hope he plays well and provides us with a gem of his wisdom next week.

I will leave you with some wisdom of my ownâ&#x20AC;Ś..

Since bad shots come in groups of three, a fourth bad shot is actually the beginning of the next group of three.

FROM THE PRO SHOP

Menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s competition SPRING is in the air, at last!

After weeks of rain and howling wind the Wednesday men finally had something to smile about.

The sun was shining and just a gentle breeze was blowing for the 4BBB par event. The comp was reduced to 15 holes because of the works being done on the bunkers.

The dynamic duo of Laurie Gudykunst and John Casboult won the day with a fabulous 9 up.

Leighton Bullock and Ted Matson also had a great score, but had to be content with runner up with 8 up.

It was a good day out for Ted as he also won NTP on the 7th while Billy Mitris took the honours on the 13th hole.

A large field teed off on Saturday for the stableford event, and early on, conditions were perfect.

However, by lunchtime the wind picked up, making it a little tricky for the afternoon players.

Good to see Dale Carroll finding some form and posting the best score of 39 points. Michael Yates won A grade with 38 points.

Dean Bernasconi won NTP on the 5th and must have wondered how the ball didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t drop in, finishing right on the lip of the hole.

Dean is a master of the par 3â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and has a very healthy supply of golf balls as a result! Bruce Hay won NTP on the 7th hole, Dean Turner on the 13th and Barry Tippett on the 17th.

Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s competition Bunker works meant that holes 2, 14 and 15 were still closed but there were no grizzles from the women having to miss the two furthest holes.

The women played a stableford competition with one of our â&#x20AC;&#x153;veteransâ&#x20AC;? Anne Scott having a marvellous score. Anne had 20 points on the front nine (actually eight holes) and finished with 32 points.

Dot Tattersall was runner-up with 30 points.

A small contingent played on Saturday with Deb Hocking winning with 31 points.

News from the shop Darrell competed in the PGA Australian Professional Championships at Sandhurst last week and had mixed results over the three days.

He saved his best until the final day, firing a 73.

The form of other pro shop staff has been letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s say, a little â&#x20AC;&#x153;below parâ&#x20AC;?. (no names required!)

So itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s back to the driving range, and heaps of work on the short game. A never-ending quest to â&#x20AC;&#x153;get it all togetherâ&#x20AC;?.

But one player who is in great form at the moment is our current club champion Deyen Lawson.

After taking out the Portarlington Championship last week, Deyen has followed up with a win in the Ocean Grove Open on the weekend.

FROM THE

mat WITH ANGLESEA BOWLS CLUB

AT THIS time of the year, most sporting clubs are hoping the winter rains are finished, and that sunshine will prevail.

Unfortunately, even though the Anglesea Bowling Club has synthetic greens, heavy rain forced the greens committee to close the greens on Saturday, September 4, and the orange ball was raised up the flagpole at the Anglesea Bowling Club to signify that no-one is allowed on the greens.

It also meant the cancellation of the men’s first practice match versus Cement. It was the first time some of our newer members, and local residents who are non-bowlers, had ever witnessed this. Hopefully it won’t happen again this season.

Action on the greens Better weather conditions were evident on Monday, allowing a good number of bowlers to participate in the morning skills session organised by our four accredited coaches. The men also enjoyed their afternoon triples competition.

Tuesday, September 7 saw excellent bowling performances at the Pennant Practice game – Ladies versus Men.

At the end of the day, the men finished two shots up, and they agreed it was the hardest practice match they had ever had.

Look out next year gentlemen – the ladies will really be trying!

Ladies AGM At the Ladies General Meeting last Thursday the main item on the agenda was the forthcoming Open Day to be held at the club on Thursday, October 28. Any clubs wishing to enter a ladies team should contact our tournament manager – Trish Bodman on 5263 1249 for more details and/or an entry form.

Chicken Run The next Chicken Run will be held this Friday, September 17 at 3 pm.

This is a fun afternoon for everyone, so put your name down and come and play.

After the game, the first barbecue for the 2010/2011 season will be held.

These have proved very popular in the past – so don’t miss out – but please put your name down early in the week to assist with catering.

Coasters carve a place in history SURFCOAST Football Club is blazing a trail through the record books in the region, courtesy of its men’s provisional 2 team.

For the second season in a row, the team secured promotion – becoming the first local team in more than three decades to achieve such a feat.

On top of the men’s success – and underlining the strength of the club – the women’s teams reached the grand final in every age group.

FFV Provisional 2 Men: Surfcoast (7) v Western Eagles (1)

Surfcoast Prov 2 men smashed the ladder leaders – the former national league club – the Western Eagles 7-1 on the weekend to secure promotion to Provisional League 1 in 2011.

U16 Girls: Surfcoast (2) v Surfside (1)

Surfcoast under 16s girls turned on a strong performance to win the grand final. The Surfcoast girls, most of whom are actually under 14s, can be proud of their efforts this year playing above their age group and being the standout team in the competition for team play.

U14 Girls: Surfcoast (0) v Kardinia (1)

After losing their first game 9-0 to Surfside, the Yellows were proud of their achievements to have even made it to the grand final. They were matched up against Kardinia, who finished top of the ladder and had only lost one game the whole season. Unfortunately, a lapse in concentration allowed Kardinia to get a quick one home and in spite of repeated chances, the Yellows couldn’t equalise in the remaining 10 minutes.

U12 Girls: Surfcoast (0) v Geelong Rangers (1)

The Legends faced off against Geelong Rangers for the grand final after Rangers had a surprise win over second best team Surfside on Thursday afternoon. The Legends battled hard but fell just short of victory.

Liam’s hockey selection TORQUAY’S Liam Williamson has been selected as a reserve for the Australian Schoolboys’ hockey team competing in South Africa next year, after playing in the national championships in Bunbury.

Liam was a member of the Victorian under 16 Boys Hockey team which won the silver medal in the School Sport Australia National Championships.

The talented local hockey player has also

represented Geelong in the U17 and men’s State League teams this year. He also co-coaches a Newtown U15 team, with fellow state team member, Harry Dolenc, and umpires junior and senior games for Hockey Geelong.

In other hockey news, the Torquay under 13 team, which is playing its first season, made it through to the Hockey Geelong grand final on the weekend. More hockey news next week.

a rod with a luminous section that starts up the rod and continues on to the tip.

The rod itself is called Blue Thunder and the innovative aspect of this rod is the luminous section they have incorporated into its structure.

It is a fibreglass solid-tip rod with Eva grips, ALPS guides and an ALPS reel seat. The tip section produces a solid glow which provides good illumination to enable you to see your rod tip at night.

This enables you to do away with the need for all the little gizmos you had to previously attach to your rod to be able to fish at night.

Add to this the Okuma lifetime warranty guarantee and you are looking at a rod with a true sense of value.

Show us your catch

A reminder that if you have some REAL catches you want to send in, please forward them by email to mybigcatch@bigpond.com with the type of fish, weight, length, location and your name.

OCCASIONALLY I report on some innovative products that come to light. This week I would like to take the chance to report on one such product.

All of those fishermen who enjoy a bit of night fishing will understand the problems associated with undertaking this particular aspect of recreational fishing.

To enable you to see the tip of your rod, in the darkness of night, has inevitably led to the invention of such things as night sticks, clip lights and fishlites to mention a few.

All of these items have been designed to illuminate the tip of your rod at night, so you could see when a fish bites. However, most of these products have a limited life span, so it continues to be an ongoing cost out of your pocket.

Each time you want to undertake night fishing you have to replenish normally either the lights themselves or batteries for the lights. So how good would it be if this became a thing of the past?

Well now, one well known supplier of fishing gear, Okuma, has done just that by producing

Hawks go back to back

BY NATHAN HALE A BARNSTORMING seven-goal last quarter sealed Drysdale’s second successive Bellarine Football League premiership over Geelong Amateur on Saturday.

The Hawks looked down and out when trailling by as much as 30 points late in the third term before a stirring last 40 minutes enabled them to record a memorable 13.13 (91) to 11.17 (83) victory at Spring Creek Reserve, Torquay.

The eight-point win will go down as one of the club’s best in memory – and enabled them to register success flags for the first time since 1976 and ’77.

The Hawks won the toss and decided to kick with the aid of a three-goal wind in the opening quarter, but following a promising start, they led by just nine points at the first break and looked vulnerable.

Ammos attacked hard in the second term but a combination of inaccurate kicking and good defensive pressure from Drysdale held them in check.

Geelong kicked 3.10 to a solitary point to lead by 18 points at the main break. While Drysdale managed to cut the deficit slightly in the third term, few could have predicted what was about to unfold.

With Mitch Scott leading the charge, the Hawks improved their disposal by both hand and foot and within a matter of 10 minutes the game had changed complexion.

The Hawks appeared to have more run and as Ammos tired, the reigning premier surged clear – booting to a 20-point lead late in the game.

Captain Brent Taylor, defender Brett Dowie and assistant coach Luke Matthews all stood out for the winners in a stirring victory.

A Drysdale player looks to send his team into attack against Ocean Grove in the under 18s grand final.

Happy Hawks: Giant Drysdale forward Luke Maher celebrates Saturday’s victory.
