Merry Christmas! to everyone in Orange and in places like Molong, Blayney, Millthorpe, Spring Hill and beyond. As we at “Orange City Life” say goodbye to 2021 with our last issue of the year – it’s a great chance for us to also say “thank-you” to our readers, advertisers, interview subjects and contributors, for what has been a very memorable year. We literally could not have done it without you! While there were times around June-July when it looked like there was little light at the end of the pandemic tunnel for our region, we’ve certainly turned things around these last few months with the big re-opening, many businesses looking for staff, and a real Christmassy feel to the Colour City.

In the spirit of returning to our lives, this week we feature some great Christmas events in our “Socials” section as well as two full-pages of puzzles for those that enjoy a brain-teaser.

Other great holiday reading includes a story about local actress Eleni Cassimatis who has just been cast in her first main-stage theatre production of “Hamlet” being performed at the Sydney Opera House in 2022. In other arts news, we also discuss the U3A (University of the Third Age) writing group and their recruitment drive for 2022, plus a great win by Molong Central School which was recently awarded “Best Cow Design” in Dairy Australia’s “Picasso Cows” competition. Fans of the old English snooker television show “Pot Black” will also be fascinated by our chat with a local man, David Williams, who once played against the legendary “Steady Eddie” Charlton at Newstead Bowling Club. David would love to see the return of cue sports like snooker, pool and billiards in the Central Tablelands, and is interested in finding locals willing to have a go. Finally, as we look to say goodbye to 2021, we wish all our readers, advertisers and supporters a Merry Christmas and a safe and healthy New Year.

Pressure is on — but Santa always delivers! It’s that time of the year when the pressure’s really on for one very selfless servant of children Australia-wide and even further. He’s been making his list, and checking it twice, he’s finding-out who’s naughty or nice, but Santa Claus did take a few moments out from his frantic schedule to chat to our special North Pole “Orange City Life” correspondent…
Q. Hi Santa, what’s happening? A. Plenty, as you can well imagine. It’s all “go, go, go” at this time of year, and Mother Claus and the Elves are all putting in the long hours to make sure no-one is forgotten for Christmas 2021.
Q. COVID-19, no sweat for the North Pole? A. Well, “yes”, actually. I’ve been under lockdown too and, in a few weeks, I have to make an around the world trip in quick time… there’s toy supply issues, QR Codes, a special vaccine for our toy-makers, it hasn’t been easy, but we always deliver in the end…
Q. Ever suffer sniffles and colds yourself?
4 DECEMBER 16, 2021 — JANUARY 12, 2022
A. Not usually, I’m naturally well-insulated as you know, Ho, Ho Ho! (he laughs, tapping his ample tummy) , and I always dress very warmly in my Santa suit. But if I do ever get a touch run-down, Mrs Claus always looks after me, sending me to bed with a nice warm cocoa and a hot-water bottle. Because it wouldn’t do for Santa to “call in sick” on the most important day of the year… would it?
Q. Does every little boy and girl always get the present that they want? A. Well, not exactly, but I always try and make sure that every present is from the heart and is something that every little boy and girl will enjoy.
Q. So, Rudolph has heard some rumours that you might be going a bit high-tech this year, maybe looking at a jet aircraft to help with some deliveries? A. Not at all! That gossip has been around since the Wright brothers first took to the skies in 1903. It was going to be an airship in the 1910s, a bi-plane in the 1920s, and a supersonic Jumbo jet in the 1970s.
Me and the Reindeers — Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, Blitzen, and Rudolph — all have a special bond. They’re more than just a convenient way to get around to everyone on my list. We’re a team, and why break-up a great partnership?
Q. Christmas Carols, Yes, or No? A. Well, I love a good Christmas Carol as well as the next man, but if you’re asking, “what is my favourite,” that’s a “no can do”! People have been trying to see my streaming service list for years, “We reveal Santa’s favourite carol, blah, blah, blah,” but that list is strictly between me, Mrs Claus, Rudolph and the gang, and Spotify!
Q. What makes Christmas so special? A. it’s the one time of the year when we all pause from our busy lives and put other people first. Family, parents, children, loved ones, the auntie on her own, those less fortunate than ourselves. In the end, life is beautiful, and for many, they need reminding of that, and that is what Christmas is all about.
Q. Christmas night, quiet, busy, or crowded in the Claus household? A. As you know, (he taps his ample girth again) Mrs Claus is an excellent cook, so after a delicious Christmas dinner — a little later than most other people, I admit — I put my feet-up before the fire with a warm, mulled wine and watch a real old classic movie, ‘Miracle on 34th Street, ‘The Santa Clause’, ‘A Christmas Carol’, or ‘White Christmas’ though I do admit, I tend to nod-off after the intermission. (Santa gets up to leave as his most senior Elf, Shinny Upatree, comes in with a long list of items that need seeing to immediately…)
Q. Any last words of wisdom, Santa? A. Well, Remember the ‘reason for the season’ and the best thing that you can give, or receive, for Christmas, is the love of those you most care about, and for those who most care about you…
Q. Thanks Santa, one last question, about that “Dragster” bike I’m sure I had on my Christmas list back in 1979…

Comment with David Dixon
What makes a great Christmas carol? Whatever your beliefs or views of the Festive Season, none of us can avoid the ubiquitous Christmas carol at this time of year. Because — love, loathe, or simply hear them with weary indifference — they literally become the soundtrack to our lives each yuletide. We unconsciously hum them as background to television and online ads, or piped to us in supermarkets, shopping centres, in lifts, cafes, and even at work on music streaming services. We all know one when we hear it — “snowbells,” “reindeers,” “baby-in-amanger,” and “silent nights” — but what actually makes a good and a not-sogood Chrissie carol? First thing to remember is that there is more than one type. They are all not all the same multi-headed beast There’s the traditional church number sung in services or at Christianthemed carols by candlelight events. Classics such as: “Away in a Manger”, “The First Noel” “It Came Upon the Midnight Clear”, and “We Three Kings of Orient Are”. Then there are the more-secular, what one might call, “Disney” carols, including “Rudolph the Red-Nosed,’ “Jingle Bells,” the “12 Days of Christmas”, and “We Wish You a Merry Christmas”. There is also a third group — the Christmas “hit” written and performed by popular performers who, for either genuinely-festive or commercial reasons, put out a song knowing what sales monsters a Yule winner can truly be. Bing Crosby’s “I’m Dreaming of a White Christmas” is the most famous of these and is often rated the most successful pop song in history with estimated sales of 50 million copies. This chestnut was so associated with the old “crooner” that Bing’s Christmas specials became a yearly fixture on commercial television for decades, famously, duetting in 1977 with androgynous rock star, David Bowie, on an amazing rendition of “Peace on Earth” and the “Little Drummer Boy”. Others in this category include John Lennon’s “Merry Xmas (War is Over),” Wham’s “Last Christmas,” Andy Williams, “It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year,” and the Pretenders classic, “2000 Miles”. While these are all Christmas-themed songs, most don’t rank as “real” Christmas carols — songs which must be accessible and singable by groups of tipsy, talentless, 50-year-olds in public without embarrassment. One instance. While most red-blooded men of a certain vintage, still harbour fond memories of Maria Carey frolicking with Santa in the snow miming to, “All I Want for Christmas is You” — few would attempt a passable rendition of her five-octave vocal range with friends at Christmas drinks.

For mine, a truly-great Christmas carol must be musically-varied as well as having heart-felt lyrics of a certain complexity. “Once in Royal David’s City” is one, which also offers the added benefit of fantastic harmony arrangements, as well as “What Child is This?” usually played to the music for “Greensleeves,’ with “Deck the Halls” providing a wonderful, fast-paced counterpoint. Whatever your preference, once I’ve heard “Hark, the Herald Angels Sing” at the end of the movie classic, “It’s a Wonderful Life” each Christmas night, I know that I don’t want to hear a Christmas carol for another 11-months!

Eleni Cassimatis can’t remember a time she didn’t want to act. Performing seemed always in her blood, she says, after recently landing a major role with the prestigious Bell Shakespeare company in a Sydney Opera House production of “Hamlet”. “I don’t ever remember telling my parents that I wanted to be an actor, they kind of knew that’s what I wanted to do,” she explains. “I did all the musicals at school, and I also used to put on little shows at home with my sister…but both my parents tell me I got it from them,” she laughs. With Hamlet, she’s in the unique position of having seen the current production performed live but, which due to lockdown, has now led to her being cast as “the Player Queen” in this “play within a play”. “The play was meant to happen in 2020 and I actually saw it at the (Sydney) Opera House… I was just blown-away, but the schedule was for it to run in 2020, then 2021, and now 2022, and this led to a couple of casting changes, including for my part,” she said.
Shakespeare role for local girl
Eleni with acting in her blood
After finishing school, the former local girl and Kinross student headed to the bright lights of Sydney with an inborn work ethic that has rarely seen her idle. “I left school and travelled and worked my way around to Sydney where I started doing as many acting courses as I could find,” she explained. Graduating from the Actors’ Centre Australia, her work since has included short films, poetry readings, and voiceover work. “I’ve been very, very lucky, I did a couple of independent shows, and then in 2019 with the company ‘Poetry in Action’ where we travelled through Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong and Dubai, and finished that with the ‘the Players’ for Bell Shakespeare,” she added. In the 1960s Danish setting for this production of Hamlet, she will also be touring to the Melbourne Arts Centre and Canberra Theatre Centre and was also recently chosen

Testimonial Fifteen years ago at the age of 60 I became incontinent having had no previous symptoms.It happened suddenly causing huge distress. I took to wearing incontinence panties because I could not control leakage. I would wake during the night to use the bathroom and because I couldn’t reach the bathroom without leakage I even wore panties in bed. After 2 sessions on the EMSELLA CHAIR I no longer wear panties at home day or night, sleep through till dawn and easily to the toilet without leakage. After 3 sessions I was confident enough to not wear panties when visiting friends or restaurants. After 6 sessions I now feel confident not to wear incontinence panties at all.

in Bell Shakespeare’s “In A Nutshell” in which she will be among the first cast to tread the boards at the company’s new theatre at Walsh Bay in Sydney. With everyone affected by the pandemic that effectively stalled all live performances in Australia, Eleni determined to remain busy by keeping her craft-up via new technologies. “During lockdown we were getting on Zoom and reading Shakespeare plays together… I tried always to keep active and passionate about my work,” she said. This passion is partly-inspired by the performative nature of her craft and its ability to relate essential truths to do with our lives.
Local girl Eleni Cassimatis has always had acting in her blood. She is starring as the “Player Queen” next year in Shakespeare’s “Hamlet” at the Sydney Opera House.
“I think it’s the story-telling and being able to tell important and exciting stories. Yet at the same time, we can go through anything, and it helps us understand ourselves,” she explained. “I love analysis, and art has so much power to do that,” she added. Eleni doesn’t subscribe to a particular acting school, seeing each role as a separate challenge to be approached with fresh eyes, something she believes is easy with the “Bard of Avon” due to his having performed in many of his own productions . “The process is different from project to project…the thing about Shakespeare is, that he gives you so much in the
language to work on, and that’s partly because he would have been an actor in his own plays. “He would have gone home and written the next day’s scenes,” she said, listing “Macbeth”, “Twelfth Night”, and “As You Like it” as some of her favourite of his works. Modern playwrights she enjoys include Americans Tennessee Williams, Sam Shepard, and Neil Simon. Eleni, however, doesn’t hold the view of many stage actors that television and cinema are lesser forms of her craft. “I love theatre, the direct contact with the audience and the story-telling, but I do have a soft spot for film, they’re just different mediums.” Eleni will remain busy during the theatrical run of Shakespeare’s longest play; she has also signed-on as the characters of the courtier, “Osric” and the second gravedigger with Harriet Gordon-Anderson in the lead role. With her Opera House debut in Sydney in March next year, Eleni takes her work seriously, but remains at heart an unaffected Colour City girl who likes keeping everything in perspective. “They say in acting to ‘hold on tightly and let go lightly’… Orange is my favourite place, it’s still home.”

Snookered by COVID:
David dreams of cue game revival — DAVID DIXON —
Time was that billiards and snooker players like Walter Lindrum and Eddie Charlton were household names in Australia. Tournaments like “Pot Black” on the ABC had thousands of viewers each week, and every pub, club, and hotel featured a pool room with at least a few tables. Retired businessman David Williams wants to bring back those glory days for sports that were both leisurely gentlemen’s activities and a way for talented working-class kids to make a decent living.
He saw some of the great players of the past, including legendary Irish player Alex “Hurricane” Higgins, famous for his fastplaying style and equal speed in downing a pint of beer. “That would have been 46–48 years ago when I was living in Perth,” he said. ”I used to go back for birthdays, get-togethers,” he says of his native Salford near Manchester.
First he’s starting small, appealing for any locals handy with a cue to enjoy the district’s last remaining top-flight full-size table at Molong RSL Club.
“I used to play a lot in England and also when I lived at Perth, in Canberra, and when I came to Orange 30-odd year’s ago (David ran a civil engineering supply service).
David was introduced to these ancient games as a child in his native England from where he arrived in the mid-1960s.
He said though, that the gradual disappearance of the “games room” from many social settings saw his interest decline.
“When I was 10, I played against John Virgo, the ‘Pot Black’ host, he was an impersonator at the time,” he recalls.
“Duntryleague had two tables, and they went, and Newstead had them, and it closed, and then one day, I was taking my daughter back to Sydney and I dropped-in at Lithgow Workies Club.
“I arrived with a suitcase and a smile, and I haven’t looked back, I was a ‘ten-pound Pom,’ he laughs. David also enjoyed a game against “Steady Eddie” Charlton when the three-times Pot Black winner and World Number 2 snooker player in the 1970s visited Orange. “I had a game with him when he came to Newstead Bowling Club many years ago,” David said proudly.
Retired businessman David Williams wants to bring-back snooker’s glory days at Molong RSL.
“They had a table there, and I rediscovered my love of the game and started playing again,” he added. The appeal of the game is not just its test of fine motor skills, temperament, and nerve, but as a way of making new friends and acquaintances, something that the pandemic has placed a brake on, David said.
“it’s the social aspect I enjoy, meeting new people through your love of the game. After joining Molong, I got on the Executive Committee and, before COVID we had invited a group from Dubbo for games, a drink, and lunch,” he said. “But COVID put a stop to everything,” he said. Undeterred, David would like to see if there’s interest from those who may have held a cue in the past in reviving these ancient games. “I’ve been trying to resurrect the interest in Molong, to see if there’s old players who’d like to get interested,” he explained. Living just outside of Orange at Clifton Grove, he invites any interested Orange players to trek-out to Molong for a game against the locals in a team’s event. “What I’d like to do, is for four or five people from Orange go out and play Molong, because I don’t think there’s any full-sized
tables left in Orange” he said. He said that Colour City cue players are also invited to enter the singles competition at the Molong Club with age definitely no limit. “It’s an indoor game that can be played by anyone. I’m 74 years young and I feel like I’m reasonably fit and I can still play, so can anyone,” he said. The table at Molong, he reveals, is not an old beer-stained reject from a pool hall but has recently been reclothed and balance-reset to a match-play standard. “It’s a very old table, but it’s also in very good condition,” he said. He said that reviving the local snooker competition at the club is also a way of supporting this unique community asset that, like so many in country towns, have suffered through the past two years. ”I’m on the snooker committee, and they’re doing it tough… we don’t want the club to close down, so any new interest we can generate is great,” David concluded.

Turners Furniture One There’s a new family in town and they are here to make a statement. That is, they can’t wait to begin serving the community of Orange. If you haven’t taken a drive down Endsleigh Avenue lately, you’ll want to put it on top of your to-do list. The Turner family have recently taken the reins from the Bobbeldyk’s at ‘Furniture One’, same location, same phone number, new look and new family. Now their seventh store in the area, servicing Young, Cootamundra, Temora, Cowra, Forbes, Bathurst – and now Orange. The Turner family have a collective 33 years as a family run business and they aren’t stopping there. Business Owner, Steve Turner said, “Orange is a great town within the Central West and its continual growth was a no brainer for us. Location-wise it’s in the middle of each of our current stores. We have delivery vehicles in the area, and we have a lot of the infrastructure set up to handle and supply Orange so taking on this location when it came up, just made sense.” The Endsleigh Avenue premises has been recently renovated with the help of local tradies, and has an exciting, fresh new look ready to greet the community. “We are excited to have the space to stock all of the favourite brands that were there before, as well as a lot of new ones,” said Steve. “We are running a lot of the popular brands
including Stressless, Lazboy, IMG, Sealy and Kingkoil mattresses and a whole new every day range – a lot of dining and Australian made lounge, dining, bedroom suites and fabric beds, we have quite a broad selection, and we’ve also added a huge amount of outdoor furniture to our range.”
to have the challenge of setting up a new store. “We are ready to open the doors and do what we do best! We look forward to seeing how the community responds to the new store and to see the changed from the old to the new, as well as the surplus of products that we have available.”
“As a family business with the buying power of seven stores, we can compete with national and online retailers. We also offer a buy local price beat guarantee, which gives the customer the assurance they are not only getting great service but a great price also.”
Anthony added, “Check us out for mattresses, we have quite a lot of stock ready to go and we have plenty of Australian made, from kids- to elderly- lift beds, and you don’t have to wait for stock to come in, it’s here.”
Steve continued, “I think our service as well as our quality of products and our experience set us apart. We are very selective with the products that we run and we are proud of that. “We want to look after the community and provide that real country service but customers will be buying at city prices. “We care about community, and when community is important to a business, customers are treated like family. “We have a long history of supporting our local towns. We are quite heavily involved in community events and projects and we intend to do that in Orange as well.

The local St Vincent de Paul also do home visits, but these have been severely hampered by the COVID-19 lockdowns over the past two years. “We have a couple of members that do home visitations to households doing it tough, but this year it has been really hard because of COVID, we simply haven’t been able to get access due to the lockdown restrictions,” Mr Davidson said.

Molong kids’ cow wins with “inner Picasso” Mixing fine art, healthy eating and education, Molong Central School pupils recently won a cow-painting prize – named after famous Spanish Cubist Pablo Picasso! The talented Molong kids took part this year in Dairy Australia’s “Picasso Cows” program; recently being awarded winner in the “Best Cow Design” category. Throughout the term-long program, the students decorated a life-sized fiberglass cow and completed a learning journal to help them understand the health and nutritional benefits of dairy consumption. The primary school educational program aims to get young students excited and informed about the Australian dairy industry, through providing interactive and curriculum-aligned learning opportunities. The project is also designed to inform Aussie kids about the origins of one of the healthiest components of most diets with
a recent study finding that more than one in four believe that yoghurt grows on trees. The study also estimated that 60 per cent of school-aged students are not getting enough dairy during a critical time for their bone growth. Participating schools who successfully completed the program had the opportunity to win one of four exciting dairy experiential prizes, with awards given for the Best Cow Design, Best Learning Journal, a Sustainability Award, and the Overall Winner, with Molong coming up trumps in the first category. Picasso Cows is Dairy Australia’s flagship school program designed to educate Primary aged students about the Australian dairy industry, the farm to plate process, and the health and nutritional benefits of consuming dairy foods, all while decorating a life-sized fiberglass cow and completing a learning journal over an eight-week period.
Throughout the program, students adopt one of two dairy themes – “Farm to Plate” or “Health and Nutrition” – to focus their dairy education, and provide them with inspiration to decorate their cow. The program is delivered as an interactive curriculumaligned learning experience that can be adapted to the needs of the students, and has been shown to shift children’s knowledge, attitudes and behaviours around dairy foods and the dairy industry. Since inception the program has reached more than 1000 schools and over 120,000 students in metropolitan, suburban and regional areas. “Whether students just want to learn more about their favourite dairy products or explore a career in agriculture, Picasso Cows has the tools to get them excited about dairy, and to release their inner Picasso at the same time!” Dairy Australia’s Schools Engagement Advisor, Jennie Annand, said.

amily Day Care is a fantastic way for pre-school children to enjoy a great home-style environment while also offering flexible lifestyle and financial benefits for carers.
The Orange Family Day Care Scheme – coordinated by Orange City Council – currently has 15 local educators. However, due to a shortage of educators, there are currently around 160 children on a waiting list for a place in Family Day Care.
Recently announced Federal Government funding is aimed tackling the major shortage of Family Day Care places in Orange while also providing employment for new day-care providers.
The latest funds, which will be split over two years, builds on this work by delivering a strategy of face-to-face approaches to recruit potential new educators through local community groups.
A total of $135,000 in support through the Community Child Care Fund (CCCF) is part of a long-term plan by the Australian Government to make Family Day Care Services more sustainable.
Local federal member Andrew Gee said this funding will create more childcare places in Orange, helping more local parents take on additional hours at work if they choose.
Family Day Care is a childcare service operated by trained educators who look after up to four children in a family setting at their own home.
“For more than 30 years, the Orange Family Day Care Scheme has provided a wonderful alternative to a traditional childcare centre, offering day-care that
feels just like home,” Mr Gee said. “Educators help kids get off to the best possible start in life by opening the doors to their own family homes, and providing children with the opportunity to learn and grow in a small, family-like group. “To back hard-working families in our country communities, access to quality childcare is essential – that’s why I’m proud the Australian Government is supporting an educator recruitment drive by Orange Family Day Care with a $135,000 grant.” Orange Mayor, Councillor Reg Kidd, said the funding would help boost childcare services in the Colour City. “I am delighted that Orange City Council can work in partnership with the Australian Government to improve the sustainability of the Orange Family Day Care Service,” Cr Kidd said.

“Family Day Care is so popular in Orange, there are currently 160 children on a waiting list, seeking a place. There are currently 15 Family Day Care educators, but there’s enough demand to double that number. “The real issue is recruitment, and this funding is going to let that happen. “There are many families with young children in Orange, and becoming a Family Day Care educator can offer a parent the opportunity to deliver a valuable service while working from home and making a good income. I’m optimistic this funding will make all the difference. “COVID has taught us how many people want to work from home. Family Day Care lets someone create a new job, while working from home,” Cr Kidd said.

Some members of this year’s Orange U3A course in Literature.
Lifelong learning:
U3A opens a door to fun and friendship Sometimes, the unforeseen paths that we travel in our lives are the most important. Sue Adams fell into leading a U3A (“University of the Third Age”) course in Literature by accident, but she couldn’t be happier. “The course leader had moved on, so I stepped into the breach!” Sue explained. “I’d been part of U3A in Orange since my retirement, and loved the Literature course so, with a bit of help, I took it on,” she added. Sue’s Literature group meets weekly with the course offering a varied and stimulating program of study that is updated and changed every year.
The course each year covers the full range of literature – from both fact and fiction – over a number of genres. Once each term, members also bring along a “poem of significance” for the group to read and discuss. “We study 12 novels a year that have been recommended by group members as ‘a great read’,” Sue said. “Group members are so supportive – they work together to prepare an interesting discussion sheet for each novel, so it really is a collaborative exercise.” In selecting these works and discussions, she added, members often access online
reviews which help in preparation. The group also studies “micro-fiction” such as essays, short stories and commentaries which require no preparation. Sue in her efforts is ably-assisted by her ‘wingman’ Julie Horspool, who helps produce the group’s yearly timetable. Orange U3A – which aims to provide education, stimulation and companionship for the more mature in our society – has been in operation for more than 30 years and continues to offer retired and semi-retired members of the community a growing range of stimulating courses and activities. New President of the Orange group,
Elizabeth Griffin, would love to hear from anyone who wants to share their skills, talents or knowledge with others. “U3A is all about opening a door to friendship, fun and learning so, if you’ve got a special interest or talent, please get in touch,” Elizabeth said. “We can help turn your idea into a great course for others to enjoy,” Elizabeth concluded. Anyone interested in registering to become a member of the local U3A in time for next year’s program of courses – or who are themselves interested in leading a course – can contact Jean Penrose on 0428 656 145.

LET’S TALK MONEY with DANIEL McGREGOR
HAVE YOU BEEN FINANCIALLY NAUGHTY OR NICE? getting started!
It’s about now that we really start to think, “Where did the year go?” Even in a pandemic, time flies! And I think it’s fair to say that everyone has already started the countdown to Christmas. (Is it just me, or did the decorations start going up very, very early this year?)
If you’re not highly confident in the direction your financial decisions are taking you, now is the time to do something about it. I come across far too many people who are complacent in thinking that their regular pay cheque is good, and they are getting by... the danger to them is in having no long-term strategic plan to get them where they ultimately want to get to in life. Just a few changes could make a huge difference to their financial future.
Now is a good time to reflect on your financial behaviour in 2021. Have you been naughty or nice? So, let’s work through a few questions to see which of Santa’s lists you’re likely to be on come December 25th... You may find yourself on the “Naughty” list if you: • Didn’t have any financial goals, instead just cruising through life hoping things are on the right track. • Didn’t have a spending plan. • Increased your credit card debt over the year or didn’t reduce the debt you already had. • Took on “bad debt” for things you couldn’t afford. • Didn’t read your superannuation statement. • Didn’t save money on a regular basis. • Didn’t have an emergency cash reserve. • Didn’t have proper insurances in place to protect you and your family. • Still don’t have a will! • Took investment advice from someone who actually doesn’t know
much about investing. Santa will be adding you to the “Nice” list if you: •H ad goals in place to guide your financial decision making. •K now where you spend your money (i.e. you have a spending plan) – this also comes in very handy at Christmas! • Always shopped with a list. • Made inroads into your mortgage. •K now where your super is, how it’s invested and how much it costs you. ave financial protection in place for •H you and your family. •S aved a little extra money for retirement (or for a rainy day).
Here’s the simple reality we all face - the more years we spend on Santa’s financial naughty list, the worse off our long-term financial future will be.
• Invested sensibly in a widely diversified and low-cost way. • Or, if you’re not sure of some of the answers to the questions above, you have a professional and independent financial adviser guiding you. Just reading through the lists above is possibly sounding alarm bells because, when it’s put in front of most people, they can quickly see whether they are close to being on the right track or running off the rails.
So many people know they need to do something, they know they need help, but they kick the can down the road and just keep putting it off and putting it off. How many Christmases will pass by before you start getting your financial future on the right track? I hope Santa will be good to you this year. In the meantime, why not head to www.wealthtrain.com.au and book yourself in for a free initial consultation for the new year?
The question is, who then chooses to do something about it? And I don’t mean just thinking about it or talking about... I mean actually taking action. As usually the hardest part is just

The new initiative is also aimed at helping to alleviate loneliness and social isolation experienced by older Australians in Orange. The Australian Government is providing $249,818 over three years from the Seniors Connected Program to Orange City Council which operates the Senior Citizens Centre. The Orange centre is among 12 organisations across Australia that will share in $4.7 million to establish new Seniors
Connected Village Hubs. Local Federal Member, Andrew Gee, said this funding would help turn the centre 3:37a PM into hub of activity to help seniors better connect with their local community and live independently. “These new village hubs would encourage older Australians to socialise and engage in activities like bushwalking, crafts, yoga classes and information nights that support good mental and physical health,” Mr Gee said. “The Hub’s activities would range from the social, physical and educational to the artistic and cultural – all aimed at improving the wellbeing of older people.

“We’re looking for someone who can develop the programs and resources for the Seniors Hub. They’ll need to build community awareness across the region, and also recruit and supervise a wide range of volunteers,” Cr Kidd concluded.

New Shed for SCOUTS I was very pleased to visit with the 3rd Orange Scout Group to announce their successful Community Building Partnership funding of $15,000 for a new equipment shed. Scouts teaches kids lifelong skills like teamwork, leadership and discipline, and are an important part of the community. It’s good to see the upgrade is soon to be underway; the slabs have been poured and shed will be erected shortly.

PRESENTATION
Donato’s Diary COVID-19 With the recent cases in the Molong area, along with the new variant of COVID-19 named Omicron identified a few weeks ago, it’s important to remain vigilant with getting tested. That applies even if you’re fully vaccinated, or only have the most minor of flu-like symptoms. You can also ask for a ‘surveillance test’, which applies when you have no systems.
SHOP LOCAL It’s hard to believe Christmas is nearly here, I’m looking forward to some time with family. Don’t forget to shop local for Christmas, we have so many excellent small businesses in our region, and now more than ever they need our support!
Last week the students and mentors from the Orange, Cabonne and Blayney local government areas involved in the TEN4TEN Leadership Dialogue gathered for the end of program breakfast and presentation. TEN4TEN is a great initiative by RDA Regional Development Australia Central West, which is now in its second year. It’s an honour to be asked to be involved mentoring our future leaders. The future of the Central West is bright, and in great hands!

Growing Up in Orange
It was great to grab the footy and get down to Waratahs Sports Club to announce funding for the Orange Tigers Australian Rules Football Club under the NSW Local Sports Grants Program. The grant will be used to assist in the installation of new players’ shelters and sheds. Last week I caught up with Tigers Vice President Mark Gibson and the team mascot to check out the facility.

Orange Regional Museum has a new exhibit titled ‘Childs Play: Growing up in Orange in the 1950s and 1960s.’ This coincided with the book launch last week by well-known local author and historian Elisabeth Edwards. It was a privilege to attend the launch and purchase a signed copy of her book, as well as checking out the display of rare original photos and memorabilia from a bygone era. For those who wish to have a look, the exhibition is open to 20 March 2022. It will be sure to bring back many fond memories.

COUNCIL AT WORK BRIEFS:
Take Orange Regional Museum exhibition home for Christmas with new book
— As of Thursday 4 November 2021, Orange City Council is in caretaker mode.
Orange Regional Museum’s exhibition Child’s Play: Growing up in Orange in the 1950s and 1960s has been made into a book, just in time for Christmas. The exhibition, a collaboration between the Orange Regional Museum and the Orange & District Historical Society, traces the lives of children in our region from birth, baptism and baby shows to school days, swimming and scouts, through photographs, objects, multimedia presentations and hands-on activities.
It’s that time of year and workplaces are beginning to plan that all important annual event: the workplace Christmas party. The Orange and Cabonne Road Safety Program wants employees and employers to enjoy the freedom of the annual get together after what has been a difficult year for all.
The 76-page publication includes many of the stunning images featured in the exhibition, which were sourced from the Central Western Daily’s photographic archive, as well as images of toys and games from the era, accompanied by comments from local historian and exhibition curator Elisabeth Edwards. Orange Mayor Reg Kidd said the book would make an excellent Christmas gift and keepsake
“I’m sure everyone is looking forward to celebrating at their work Christmas party this year,” Cr Reg Kidd said. “This taxi voucher scheme is a great way to make sure we celebrate safely.” Road Safety Officer Andrea HamiltonVaughan says drink-driving could also affect a driver’s car insurance. “If a driver fails a random breath test and has been involved in a crash regardless of whether it is deemed to be the driver’s fault or not the vehicle’s insurance is null and void,” Ms Hamilton Vaughan said. “Every single glass of alcohol affects your driving, it reduces the ability to judge speed and distance, gives the driver a false sense of confidence and there’s an increased tendency to take risks with reduced coordination and concentration. “Crash data provided by the Centre of Road Safety supports this with some disturbing data for the Orange LGA. It points to the added danger of drink-driving, even when a driver is under the legal limit. “Between 2016 and 2020 there were 7 fatalities and 353 injury crashes in Orange in which the driver had been drinking alcohol but registered a legal bloodalcohol-concentration. “The statistics are extremely alarming and are a wake up call for all who head out on the road over the festive season. Businesses can register online via the Orange City Council website under the Road Safety section.

for those who grew up in Orange in the midtwentieth century, or had an interest in the history of the region. “It will certainly bring back memories for those who experienced growing up in Orange in the era and offer a glimpse of life in the city at the time,” Cr Kidd said. “Compiling all this wonderful information into a book provides an excellent opportunity for people to share the stories of local families and the history of our community, and they can revisit those stories whenever they like.”
Council’s annual taxi voucher scheme has begun for workplaces to register their staff Christmas party to go in the draw for free $10 taxi vouchers. Orange Mayor Cr Reg Kidd said the intervention strategy was to assist employers to meet their work health and safety obligations to get their staff home safely when alcohol has been served.

Q: How can I register my pet on the NSW pet Register? A: Perhaps a Christmas guest leaves the front door open ... maybe your dogsitter doesn’t latch the gate properly. If your cat or dog goes missing this Christmas, will they have the best chance of returning home? If your pet is registered and your details are up to date, it can be safely returned if it gets lost. Check your details on the NSW Pet Register, especially if you have moved house or got a new phone number. Visit www.petregistry.nsw.gov. au to update your details or contact Council on 6393 8000 if you need assistance.
New Housing Strategy aims to solve puzzle: Larger population but smaller households By 2041 the Orange population will pass 50,000 but the number of people living in each household is projected to fall, according to analysis contained in the Draft Orange Housing Strategy. The draft strategy is currently on exhibition for community comment. To read more about the strategy or to have your say visit YourSay Orange. In 2016, when the last Census was undertaken, there were an average of 2.45 residents per household in the city. That is projected to fall to 2.27 people in 2041. However, three and four bedroom dwellings make up almost 70 per cent of all private dwellings. More than 60 per cent of the houses in Orange have two or less people yet only 17 per cent of the existing housing stock are one and two bedroom properties. Although there is demand for single freestanding dwellings which represents 86 per cent of the housing stock, the draft strategy found there is an increasing demand for the delivery of smaller dwellings which are better suited to smaller household types. Orange Mayor Reg Kidd said there would be
www.orange.nsw.gov.au
|
continued demand for some larger households so there was room for older households to share their home with visiting family and grandkids. “The data shows the city is changing so we need to get the mix right and making sure we have the right mix of housing types will influence housing affordability. Council has been working with the housing industry and providers to better understand the barriers to residential development in and supply and demand of alternative housing types” Cr Kidd said. “There might be a willingness for smaller housing types but the stock is not available.” “The challenge is to support social and cultural diversity through increasing housing diversity and choice. This includes retaining and attracting residents on high and lower incomes, key workers, transient employees, those who identify as Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander, families with children, people with disability, older residents, long-term renters, students, people living alone, shared households and more,” he said. The draft strategy is on exhibition for community comment until 21 February 2022.
PUZZLE: Most Orange households have only two people but most housing stock is three and four bedrooms.

OCLife WHAT’S HAPPENING AT CADIA
(Cadia’s Manager Bridgette Byrne – People & Social Performance), Jaroem Ah-See, Jayden Kemp, Aaron Brannigan (Cadia General Manager).
FITNESS EQUIPMENT TO PROMOTE HEALTHY LIFESTYLE TO STUDENTS Newcrest Mining’s Cadia Valley Operations (Cadia) has donated fitness equipment to assist in setting up an on-site gym for the Ngurang-gu Yalbilinya Program to promote the benefits of a healthy lifestyle to the students. The Ngurang-gu Yalbilinya Program provides a student focused environment addressing engagement, attendance, literacy and numeracy along with culturally driven programs aimed at establishing and/or improving young Aboriginal male’s connection to culture and community. The $32,000 donation made by Cadia’s Community Partnership Program has allowed the program to develop tailored fitness programs to educate young Aboriginal males in the benefits of a healthy lifestyle. Through
positive change and good choices, it is anticipated the effects will provide long-term health benefits to not only the individuals, but filter into their homes and families. The equipment includes exercise bikes, rowers and SkiErg machines which simulate the motion of Nordic skiing. Cadia General Manager, Aaron Brannigan said the donation would help build on the positive impact the program was already displaying. “We are really excited to provide our support to the Ngurang-gu Yalbilinya Program which is changing the lives of its students. In such a short time frame, the program has been so successful in engaging male Aboriginal youth in their education, culture and community.
“We know that the fitness equipment is going to be a valuable resource for the individuals within the program and help contribute to creating a healthy mind and body,” Aaron said. Ngurang-gu Yalbilinya Student Support Officer, Mark Polley said the fitness equipment was already having a positive impact on the students. “The gym equipment has not only enhanced the program, it has also enhanced the boys quality of life through exercise and their perceptions on the importance of healthy choices and a healthy lifestyle. It’s support such as Cadia’s that allows the Ngurang-gu Yalbilinya Program to provide lifechanging opportunities for these young Aboriginal men. The generosity of Cadia will
go a long way to ensuring the continued success for our community-based Programs.” Ngurang-gu Yalbilinya is fully supported by the Department of Education and Training (DET), State Aboriginal Education Consultative Group (AECG), NSW Premiers Office (Premiers Priorities), Orange Local Aboriginal Lands Council (OLALC), Orange Aboriginal Medical Services (OAMS), Orange City Council, NSW Police and Department of Juvenile Justice.
Important things to be aware of when purchasing a property This is Part Two of a two part article. 1. What is the difference between pre approval and formal approval from a bank?
You can usually access an online calculator on your bank’s website. It will ask you for your details, assets, income, and liabilities. A few minutes later you will be notified that your bank has given you ‘pre approval’ to buy a property worth a certain amount of money. When you find the property, you want to buy and your offer has been accepted, your solicitor needs the ‘pre approval’ to progress to ‘formal (unconditional) approval’. To obtain formal approval your bank, amongst other things, will require a copy of the contract to arrange a valuation of the property. The bank needs to make sure that what they are lending you is in line with the property value. For example, the bank might have given you pre approval for a house worth $500,000 based on your income and liabilities, but then the valuation of the house might only be $300,000. The bank might only give you formal approval for $300,000 which might force you to find another house. At this stage you aren’t locked into the purchase so you can just keep looking! Blackwell Short strongly recommends that you do not proceed to exchange without the formal (unconditional) approval. If you choose to proceed without this approval, and then the purchase falls through and you need to terminate, you may lose your deposit and be sued for the shortfall. 4. Auctions
When you attend an auction on a bright sunny Saturday morning (or an online auction if you’re in the middle of Covid lockdown), you need to have completed your due diligence beforehand, such as obtaining formal finance approval from the bank, arranging a pest and building report, having the contract reviewed by your solicitor, and any other relevant searches or inspection of council records. This is because there is no cooling off period when you buy at auction. Once the ‘hammer falls’ at an auction, you are locked in. No refund. The auction date becomes your exchange date and you must immediately sign the contract and pay your deposit. The countdown to settlement begins!
Please do not hesitate to approach Blackwell Short for your legal requirements.

Andrew GEE MP
FEDERAL MEMBER FOR CALARE
Merry Christmas!
Droughts, bushfires, the COVID-19 pandemic, snowstorms, a mouse plague, a freak tornado… and now floods. The past few years have certainly put the character of constituents in the Calare electorate to the test, and 2021 was no different. No matter the challenge, residents in our region always respond with hope, heart and plain old hard yakka. This year, the strength of our country communities has been supported by a wealth of funding. Some big-ticket items in Calare were given the go-ahead to ensure residents will benefit for generations to come. When the Delta variant made its way to Western NSW, residents came out in force to get the jab at dozens of pop-up vaccination clinics run by the Australian Defence Force (ADF). Thanks to these ADF hubs, by mid-September the Central West had the strongest vaccine uptake in Australia! More than 55,000 jabs were delivered during the 10 week program. In my position as Minister for Veterans’ Affairs and Defence Personnel, having stepped into the role in July, I had the privilege of meeting and thanking many members of the ADF deployed to our region. When the history of this pandemic in our area is written it will be the ADF pop-up clinics that will be seen as the turning point and I again thank them for their wonderful work. To everyone who travelled to an ADF vaccination clinic to have the jab, thank you for rolling your sleeves up! I would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a safe, joyous and relaxing festive season with family and friends. Thank you for your support this year. I am honoured to be the Federal Member of such a wonderful and resilient electorate. Here’s to a bright 2022! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
2021 Runs on the board worth celebrating!

$10 MILLION FOR THE ORANGE CONSERVATORIUM AND PLANETARIUM The new Orange Regional Conservatorium is a step closer to construction with the Australian Government officially signing off on a $10 million grant for the project under the Community Development Grants Programme.
√ $2 billion for upgrades to the Great Western Highway
With a 250-seat auditorium, 40 practice studios, a 74-seat planetarium auditorium and an 11 metre dome, the new Orange Conservatorium and Planetarium will be a spectacular project. I am proud that the Australian Government is making sure the bush gets these top drawer facilities and I can’t wait to see it finished!
√ Over $1.6 million for childcare centres in Calare √ Over $2 million to improve Cabonne streetscapes √ Establishment of a Regional Banking Taskforce √ $308,175 for a new Education and Training Centre at the Australian National Field Days site

$900,000 IN FUNDING FOR ORANGE ANGLICAN GRAMMAR SCHOOL
√ Almost $2 million for headspace centres in Calare
Since 2007, Orange Anglican Grammar School has helped children across the region grow into happy and successful learners, with a life-long thirst for knowledge and a desire to be the best they can be.
√ Over $95,000 for the Golden Memories Millthorpe Museum
That’s why I’m thrilled staff and students will see the construction of a new building, funded with a $900,000 Australian Government grant! The project will deliver four new classrooms, student amenities, staff areas, and an outdoor learning space.
√ $494,000 for the Belubula River Heritage Walk in Blayney √ $10 million for the Orange Conservatorium and Planetarium
I congratulate Orange Anglican Grammar School on their successful grant application and look forward to seeing the positive impact these new facilities will have on the school community!
√ $60,000 for Orange Cinema to keep the projectors rolling √ $250,000 for improvements at Orange Airport √ $93,306 for telecommunication enhancements at Larras Lee and Boomey √ $14 million for highway upgrades between Orange and Lithgow √ $1.9 million for forestry plantations in the Central West √ $10.7 million for the Orange Southern Feeder Road √ $114,000 for improvements of Spring Hill Rec Ground facilities √ $30,000 for the Orange Wine Festival √ CSU Medical School open!
OVER $1.6 MILLION FOR CHILD CARE CENTRES IN CALARE! For more than 30 years, the Orange Family Day Care Scheme has provided a wonderful alternative to a traditional childcare centre. Coordinated by Orange City Council, the Orange Family Day Care Scheme currently has 15 local educators. However, due to a shortage of educators, there are currently around 160 children on a waiting list for a place in Family Day Care. That’s why I’m proud the Australian Government is supporting an educator recruitment drive by Orange Family Day Care with a $135,000 grant. This funding will create more child care places in Orange, helping more local parents take on additional hours of work, volunteering or study if they choose. The funding is through the Community Child Care Fund (CCCF) - part of a long-term plan by the Australian Government to make Family Day Care Services more sustainable.

Funding for a new building comprising classrooms and associated amenities was recently revealed at the school’s Molong Road location under the Australian Government’s Capital Grants Program.
“The school’s 500 students, in their journey from pre-Kindergarten to Year 12, are encouraged to become independent and creative thinkers, prepared to take their place in the world,” he added.
Local federal member Andrew Gee said at the announcement that the Commonwealth would provide $900,000 towards the new project at OAGS.
“Students and teachers thrive when their schools have modern and up-to-date facilities, that’s why I’m thrilled Orange Anglican Grammar will receive $900,000 in federal government funding to build new and updated infrastructure.

“Current students at Orange Anglican Grammar School and children in generations to come will benefit from the new building project, which will deliver four new classrooms, student amenities, staff areas, and an outdoor learning space. “Orange Anglican Grammar School has a wonderful school community, and these new facilities will further enhance the learning environment,” Mr Gee said. The school was established by the Bathurst Anglican Diocese with initially only a handful of students with the aim of providing reasonable cost Christian education for local families.
First classes were held in the Holy Trinity Memorial Hall in January 2007, right next to the original Trinity Grammar School that ran on the site in the 1920s. The school is now at 7 Murphy Lane on a 10-hectare campus on the north-west fringe of Orange, on a site ultimately designed to accommodate an enrolment of 700 students from Transition to Year 12. “I congratulate Orange Anglican Grammar School on their successful grant application and look forward to seeing the positive impact these new facilities will have on the school community,” Mr Gee concluded.

BRENTON STANDS TALL IN HANDYMAN STAKES Brenton Hoskins-Murphy stands 183cm – about six feet tall. Hence the name of his handyman venture, the “6ft Workshop”.
game, Brenton says that he “grew up on building sites” at a time when one learnt the skills as they went along.
“I was looking for a name for the business, and I’m six feet tall, so that’s where it comes from,” he explained.
“My dad was a builder and, before you had to have tickets and things, I started working on building sites when I was 14,” he explained.
From a trades and property management background, he is the perfect tradie for any construction and installation, maintenance and home services, and repair and remodelling jobs you want done.
“I walked away for a few years to run pubs and clubs, such as the Orient Hotel in Sydney, but the thing is, when you run pubs and they know you have the skills, you’re always doing repairs about the place,” he said.
“I do a lot of remodelling and repainting. I was recently working on a house built in Orange in the 1970s with one of those beautiful arches between the kitchen and the dining room in a dusky pink, I rebuilt and repainted it,” he said.
“My dad and I then went up to Coffs Harbour where we did cladding and roofing and windows,” he said.
“I make stuff as well – furniture, blinds, tables. I hang wallpaper, minor construction, any handyman work,” he added. With a family background in the building
He then travelled to England where he property managed and refurbished a number of hotels and restaurants before the call of family brought him to the Colour City. “My wife’s a local girl and wanted to move home. I got a job at Housing Plus as property
manager, before becoming construction and quality manager for a project home builder,” he explained, The appeal of a simpler life then led to Brenton striking out on his own. “You’re less time-constrained and there’s less of having to listen to eight people at once, I’d rather work directly with clients,” he said. This work, he said, also offers a greater sense of personal satisfaction. “I like helping people with their projects, that’s what underlies it,” he said. “I like it when people say, ‘Can you fix it? Can
you make it?’ and then getting the job done right for them.” Currently weather-proofing a roof that is under an outside deck, he says that every job is different. “That’s the thing I like, it’s fun to make use of all the skills I’ve picked up over the years and then applying them to a problem,” Brenton concluded.

The eggs came from poultry farms within a radius of about 75 miles around Orange, including Forbes, Eugowra, Wellington, Bathurst, Woodstock and Parkes.

“WITHOUT FEELINGS OF RESPECT, WHAT IS THERE TO DISTINGUISH MEN FROM BEASTS?” CONFUCIUS 551BC-479BC. Members of the Orange Oral History group often suggest the different topics we talk about. Sometimes, at first glance, those suggestions seem to be not related to social history and almost impossible to lead to further discussion. This is how I felt when the idea to look at the way “respect” has changed from our childhoods to the present day was suggested. How wrong I was! Everyone was enthusiastic and had something to contribute.
Res p e c t admiration. In our schooldays, respect for God, our country and royalty was instilled in us every morning by reciting The Pledge. “I honour my God, I serve my queen, I salute the flag,” intoned Keith who still remembered after years of reciting it each morning at school assembly.
Whether it was the pledge or the prevalence of corporal punishment “In our childhoods we were taught which made us behave in class we to respect the position people held,” could not decide, but Bruce felt that said John. children today show little respect We thought about this and decided for their teachers. that in order to have a cohesive Glenna said that respect is a two society it is necessary to have rules way street. and for people to conform to “I don’t like people to be false,” she those rules. said firmly. “If you treat people with It naturally follows that there must respect you will find it is returned.” be people to make sure the rules Doreen agreed with her. are obeyed. “We had to respect teachers, doctors, policemen and all those in positions upholding the law,” said John. Of course in order to retain that respect the people in those positions had to be worthy of our

Christian names was mostly frowned upon in our youth. “I still find it hard to call people by their first name,” said Rosemary. “We were told we had to treat our elders with respect.” This is where our discussion took off. Were people entitled to respect just because they were aged? We had differing opinions. “When I was teaching at TAFE we all called each other by our Christian names,” Dick told us.
Ann thought that, although we were brought up to treat a position with respect, it could easily be lost by bad behaviour as has happened to some people in public life. There were other things that we were taught to respect when we were young. Boys were told they must open doors and stand aside for women. Men wore hats which they raised when they met a woman but had to take off altogether when inside a house. This was all a part of respecting women and giving them a special place in society. Of course this has all changed now with the movement towards equality which is no doubt not before time, but some may regret the passing of what seemed to be a gentler society.
Parents taught children that manners and respect for others was important. This is difficult in today’s “But when I was teaching flying I society when parents are time poor was certainly treated with respect!” and much is left to teachers to do. Joan said she was quite happy to Respect for the property of others be known by her first name and and for oneself, we decided was also many of us agreed. important.

All you could ever want; just add ............................................you and your family Just 16 kilometres North-East of Molong and about 38 kilometres North of Orange lies "Beri". Just over 100 acres of beautiful North-Easterly red basalt country, "Beri" has a long list of features that need to be seen to be appreciated. Starting at the 10 year old brick home that features all the comforts we have grown accustomed to, surrounded by lush lawns and gardens plus spacious formal living area in addition to beautiful enclosed and open-air casual entertaining areas overlooking the farm, "Beri" has it all. The workshop and machinery shed is just about everyone's dream set-up. With two hi-lift roller doors, full concrete floor throughout, LED hi-bay lights plus an adjoining lock-up room and bathroom and kitchenette, this is the perfect doghouse that any bloke would love to be banished to. A new bore, multiple rainwater tanks, 1 dam plus frontage to the permanent, spring-fed Weandre Creek all combined provide a bulletproof water supply for man & beast alike. Sub-divided into four main paddocks all with thick stands of endemic phalaris and sub-clover, 120 cross-bred ewes and lambs are currently lost in the masses of feed on offer. At least 60% of the property would be considered easy cultivation or hay country where you could mow easily without smashing machinery to pieces.

Final farewell to May Raechelle At the end of February 2022, we will close the doors of May Raechelle Gallery in Millthorpe for the final time after five, fun-packed years. The bulldozers arrive soon after to raze the little white house we have called home for most of our art journey. Our landlord (who has been so generous to us during our tenancy in both good times and bad) has some amazing plans for this patch of Millthorpe, so watch that space. With no advertising budget, we relied on the generosity of newspapers and magazines to publish our articles about upcoming exhibitions. Orange City Life magazine and Bathurst City Life magazine were particularly supportive, and we appreciate their help in highlighting the talent of artists in the local area. Orange Visitors Centre are also tremendously supportive of Millthorpe businesses. It’s been quite an adventure, something we had always wanted to try and, with the support of the people of the Central West and beyond, we were able to achieve success. Beginning in October 2016, we had our first rural art exhibition in 2017 and never looked back. We wanted to be a gallery for the average person, just like ourselves. So, there were never going to be white walls
and plinths and certainly no looks from down our noses. We hoped instead, that we were able to bring quality artworks from around the region and around the world which would appeal to everyone’s eye and budget. Enormous ‘thank yous’ to our customers over the years. Whether you were regulars or one-offs, we appreciated your support and kind words about our gallery. It was great to get to know people from the area, some of whom became friends, not just customers. The same also became true of many of our artists. Regional artists – we are in awe of your talent. We have been so privileged to display your works. To every artist who brought in works, felting, jewellery, mosaics, sculpture, ceramics, paintings, drawings, crafts, millinery, stained glass, even chocolate, you have incredible imaginations, abilities and skills. Your works would easily be at home in galleries far more upmarket than our modest abode, but we were so glad you chose us. We encourage you to find new places to show your works... you are all far too good to be hidden away. Now I’m beginning to waffle on as usual, so all that’s left to say is ‘farewell’ and, perhaps, we’ll see you some day on a new adventure!

Thank-you to Orange, from an “honoured” candidate The 12 days of voting are over, and we are moving onto the “12 days of Christmas”. But first for me, some post-election observations – what a roller coaster of a ride! Delays, COVID restrictions on how to wage the battle of the corflute posters, the 100-metre rule on handing out how-to-vote cards, and the Electoral Commission site being down more than it was up; impacting on i-Voting. Any wonder the informal votes is so high – it will probably never be known how this may have impacted on the outcome of the election and sentiments of the community. I do know that many people commented they had no idea who was even standing. On the other hand, many voters came well-prepared and had obviously done their homework to make sure their vote counted. Many were also confused by the absence of how-to-vote cards from candidates. I have my own questions about the cost, both financial and environmental, of elections and how we conduct them, wondering if it is not time for some new thinking. After an event is a perfect time to reflect and learn, exploring options for ‘doing it better’ next time. You know by now that I chose to stand as an independent candidate with no political or group allegiances in order that I be free to consider every issue impartially and informed by community sentiment. This process has further convinced me that, while expedient, voting ‘above-the-line’ does not necessarily ensure the best outcome and, in reality, it is still a vote for an individual. The voting process to select our Council for the next three years is done and just remains to be tallied. I thank you for allowing me the honour of standing as one of your candidates and I wish all the best for our newly-elected mayor and councillors, as we lend our support to this team in securing the best possible outcomes for a prosperous Orange that preserves the best of who and what we are, while delivering progress that is intelligent, considered, innovative and aligned with community priorities. And a shout-out to all the candidates who stood for election. Do not underestimate the physical, emotional and financial commitment required to put your hand up for election. I never want to stand outside the Scout Hall, for 11 days, in extremes of weather in a bright-orange Visy vest, again. However, it was worth it to meet so many remarkable people. Especially the first-time voters. Loved showing them how to vote but not who to vote for... that seemed like taking advantage! Lesley Smith

Farewell Fred — PHOTOS CONTRIBUTED —
Past and present team members of the Orange Ex-Services’ Club family came together recently to farewell on of OESC’s most loved and long serving icons.

Gym exercise Fred was the first barman at the OESC Country Club when it first opened in the mid-80s, and pulled the last beer at the club in 2020. He is now looking forward to physiologists being on the other side of the bar to taste the first beer at the soon to be reopened OESC Country Club in 2022.

Exercise is important. We all know, yet still most of us don’t do enough of it. And while it doesn’t get easier as we get older, it’s more important than Kerry Dillon, Marianne Robinson and Sue Neville ever to maintain an active and healthy lifestyle.
But gyms aren’t for you, you say? Well, the Uniting Seniors Gym is not your typical gym; There’s no loud music, no arcane industrial looking equipment, the room is light, airy and has plenty of comfortable seating. “There is always that stereotypical image around gyms, but I guess I don’t really like to think about it as a gym,” said Uniting Seniors Gym exercise physiologist Michael Dillon. “It is more just somewhere to come and be a little bit more active than you normally would at that age… I think once people see the service and realise it is not your typical gym, they relax a little bit and it is not so intimidating.”
how it’s meant to be moved,” said Michael.
“Typically, a lot of the people we work with have zero gym experience and zero exercise experience,” said Michael.
"Too many people think that as your body ages, you lose function and there’s nothing you can do about it. Margaret Lane and Stuart Vaughan
“When they first come in it’s just about getting to know the client as much as we can, and we try to make them feel comfortable with us and with exercise and starting off at a level that suits them then progressing as they get better.” The equipment in the Seniors Gym is also unique in that it automatically adjusts to suit every individual member at the tap of a card.
...Typically, a lot of the people we work with have zero gym experience and zero exercise experience...
“They are all electronically controlled and set up, so the client doesn’t have to remember anything, they have like a little credit card and you tap the machine and it remembers seat setting, counts their Michael’s clients range from 65 to 96 years of age reps, does rest periods, sets their resistances and and surprisingly most of them had never previously Terry Flood and Lindsay Wright Marianne Robinson and Fred Maw Jessica and Ben Coster literally all they have to do is move the equipment used a gym.
“I think that is a little bit of a misconception in terms of exercise, people think as you age that’s just how it is, but if you continue with exercise and physical activity there’s actually improvements you can make so you can do things you want to for longer,” said Michael. “Most clients who come in get pretty good results and we see big improvements. That’s probably the most rewarding thing about working with this group, the impact you see and the progressions that they make over the first couple of months is huge! Most people make some big steps forward and Jason and Sue Neville that’s what keeps them coming.”

Finally, we have been able to get together and experience to FUN, FRIENDSHIP and FELLOWSHIP of Probus. Christmas is the season of good will and good cheer, so let’s keep it up for the rest of the year.
In February, Jeff File will delve into the use, abuse and management of water, and in March John Tancred will recount some interesting experiences in his career as a barrister. Keep tuned in.
Probus Chair Judith Maestracc wrote, “Covid has not and must not defeat us; I see strength, resilience, positivity and HOPE. Look for a world with more hugs and less restrictions – more joy and less fear”.
Henry Lawson said, “Old age is golden, or so I’ve heard it said, Sometimes I wonder as I crawl out of bed,
The Christmas luncheon saw a heartening roll up of members, partners and guests from other Probus Clubs. We were treated to an excellent meal by Services Club in a room beautifully decorated by our “fair ladies”, Gabrielle, Judy and Patricia. Thanks Ladies. Many chocolates were won for lucky door and quizzes, all in Christmas mode.
With my ears in a drawer and my teeth in a cup, my glasses on the table till I get up, As sleep dims my vision, I say to myself, is there anything else I should have on the shelf, The reason I know my youth is all spent, is my get up and go has got up and went,
The Committee met and noted the strong financial position. Plans are under way to arrange several one-day tours, including Bathurst, Parkes and Dubbo. All will be revealed when we meet on 5th January.
But in spite of it all I’m able to grin, and think of the places my getup has been.” Don’t forget, we next meet on Wednesday January 5th, so come and enjoy.

THUMBS UP to the man that directed traffic at a Clinton Street intersection. It possibly avoided another accident as one lane was closed.
THUMBS UP to Bec at the north Orange Subway who, with a smile and great interest, made sure our Subway meal didn’t contain any allergens that could affect us. Great work Bec!
THUMBS UP to Orange City Council. We have been away for a while and are very pleasantly surprised with some changes in town. New seats... YEH! The oldies – mainly us – will be very happy indeed to be able to sit for a while when in town, and the seats are also timber with a back rest. Also, “thumbs up” to the addition of more pedestrian crossings. Congratulations to Council.
THUMBS UP to Officeworks, Orange for kindly supporting the “Riding for the Disabled” Orange Centre. They paid for printing of new brochures and certificates, which was much appreciated by our riders and volunteers. Thank-you! THUMBS DOWN to “Orange City Life” for continuing to print ridiculous “Thumbs Down” claims without verifying the facts. It would be so easy on your part to do a little investigation before you print unsubstantiated rubbish! Editor’s Note: “Thumbs Up” and “Thumbs Down” are designed to allow our readers to air their personal views on a range of subjects. As such, it is not our role to judge, censor or dismiss these views, just because others disagree with them! We encourage all Thumbs readers to check the explanation below, which we include here every week.
THUMBS DOWN to the two retail assistants complaining and chatting to each other about their pay rates as several customers were waiting for service. Very unprofessional, which only appeared to justify the fact that they were apparently not on manager’s pay rates. THUMBS UP It will be “Thumbs Up” if the new Council do one thing first. Put the Showground back the way it was! The grandstand and horse stables were all pulled down. The creek needs piping and filling in. This will make a better look for Orange. Also, put in a proper caravan stop in Orange. When you have a convention of caravans passing through Orange, they bypass the town and go elsewhere.
THUMBS UP to Alex – a lovely young person at the Orange Ex-Services Club – who helped me to my car after I won several hams on Sunday evening. Above and beyond his duties. Merry Christmas Alex!

THUMBS UP to Newey’s Dry Cleaners for their car service. I had an extra kingsized doona which I struggled to get into the car at home, but was pleasantly surprised when it was collected from my car when I showed up to get it drycleaned.
THUMBS UP In the flurry of advertising trying to entice us to spend up for Christmas, there has virtually been no mention of the “Baby” whose “birth” we celebrate. So, I was delighted to find in my letterbox a neat booklet, “The Truth About Christmas”, which was apparently letter-boxed right across Orange. It’s a modern translation of Luke’s Gospel, without showing the numbers for verses or chapters. Very easy to read.
THUMBS UP to Hearing Australia in Orange for their outstanding service and care at all times. We are so grateful. THUMBS UP to a young gentleman at the ANZ Bank, Orange, for helping me to access my internet account. You were so patient and helpful to someone not-so-savvy with these matters. THUMBS DOWN to the kid with his dog who decided to run across the road against the traffic lights on Wednesday afternoon. You were almost hit by two cars, one being mine. And yes, to your disbelief, that was a few choice words that came out of my mouth! What did you expect!
THUMBS UP to Barnes Prestige who must have a Council contract for mowing, tidying and trimming at some of our local parks. They were hard at it last week in Ken Rawle Park which, like so many parks and gardens, has been growing like crazy. It can’t be easy, given all the recent rain that they’ve had to work around. It looked like some job, so your efforts are appreciated.
THUMBS UPto Melanie Meers and all the wonderful staff at Anson Street School. The Orange (and surrounding) community is so privileged to have our special children under your guidance and care. Thankyou all for your timeless efforts. You deserve medals!
THUMBS UP Isn’t it great that we have people like this in Orange. It was a tiny wedding group posing for photos in the garden outside the celebrant’s house, when the neighbour noticed the bride had no bouquet, so she quickly cut a bunch of gorgeous roses from her garden and sent them over. Lovely!
THUMBS UP to the cyclist and pedestrian who helped the distressed young motorist change his flat tyre in the middle of the North Orange Bypass/Molong Road roundabout during peak hour on Wednesday morning. That was wonderful community spirit. Some advice though for anyone in this situation, it is far safer to attempt to drive or even push the car a few metres off the roundabout onto the road shoulder at the roundabout exit beforehand. THUMBS UP to the lovely girl who returned my handbag, which she found while walking under a bush near the skate park. She was able to find me by the address on my driving licence, still fortunately left in the bag. I stupidly never obtained her full name and address before I thought to thank her properly. I would like her to get in touch with me through Orange City Life Magazine, by emailing them your name and phone number to reception@oclife.com.au, so I can thank you.
THE THUMBS REPRESENT THOUGHTS AND OPINIONS OF READERS AND DO NOT NECESSARILY REFLECT THOSE OF ORANGE CITY LIFE STAFF. EVERY CARE IS TAKEN NOT TO PUBLISH THUMBS THAT ARE CONSIDERED DEROGATORY OR DEFAMATORY IN NATURE . PLEASE NOTE THAT THUMBS MAY BE EDITED FOR CLARITY, SPACE OR LEGAL REASONS.
