Thank you to our Sponsors: Orange City Life is grateful to the following sponsors for their ongoing support over many years. These sponsorships, among others things, have enabled us to bring our readers a lot more enjoyment to our publications than would otherwise be possible. In return, we ask you to please support them as often as you’re able.

A big congratulations to the Orange Show Society on your 151st show last Saturday. From all reports, it was a top day and having been part of a local show committee some years ago. I know just how much work goes on behind the scenes to make everything happen and how few people there usually are to do it. Enjoy your brief respite before planning begins once again for 2024.

Well, we’re back to a full contingent once again after COVID struck the OC Life office, but with what we are hearing from other businesses and numbers of staff out sick, one wonders how long it will last. I’ve managed to dodge any colds or flu so far this year, but I don’t hold out hope for making it through this winter unscathed.

How beautiful is all the autumn colour around our city at the moment! I love seeing the subtle shift and changes in colour and textures across the parks and streets as leaves fall. Having grown up in a very different climate it’s something I’ve quickly come to appreciate and love about living in Orange… Those icy winds that cut through you while you’re shivering alongside a soccer field early on a Saturday morning, on the other hand, I could still do without!

Water warrior Anne Kennedy wants new blood to take up the cause — MICHELLE PETERS —didn’t really think much about where her water came from. It was a visit to her friend’s home at Nyngan, where she saw the true value of water.

“In the city, you don’t think about water. You turn the tap on and it’s there. When I visited the Nyngan property they’d say you can’t shower every day, and I went, oh really,” Anne says with a laugh.

The scarcity and value of our country’s water became only more apparent when Anne married and moved onto her husband, Neil’s property at Coonamble.

Water is our most important resource, says dedicated water conservationist, Anne Kennedy, who at 75 years of age is still continuing her decades-long fight to protect it.

B

ut, she says, it’s vital now that younger generations take up the cause.

A direct descendant of renowned Scots warrior king Robert the Bruce, Anne too, in a sense, has taken up arms for a cause, fighting for the conservation of artesian bore water and the end of coal seam gas mining.

Her fight has earned Anne an Order of Australia Medal (AM), and now her story has been published in a new book, ‘Nine Lives for Our Planet’ written by John Watts.

As a child growing up in Sydney, Anne

The couple’s only accessible water for the home came from the rainwater tank, while dam water was used in the garden.

“We often ran out of water,” Anne says, “I used to have to drive all the way to ‘Yuma’, my parents-in-law’s property, to do the washing.

“I realised how absolutely vital it was, and then we moved to ‘Yuma’, where we were totally reliant on bore water.”

It was here that Anne became curious to know more about the vast underground store of water in the Great Artesian Basin, the lifeblood of many properties in the Australian outback.

“Bore water is the greatest asset Australia has. And, I remember in school we were taught the Great Artesian Basin was constantly being recharged,” she says.

But it was reading Professor Lance Endersbee’s book, ‘A Voyage of Discovery’ that opened Anne’s eyes to the fact that the water from the Great Artesian Basin was ancient and finite.

This discovery prompted her to action, founding the Great Artesian Basin

Protection Group she tirelessly lobbied for the capping and piping of free-flowing artesian bore water.

Group, Anne has worked hard to raise money and fund research into the impacts of fracking.

“Over the years we’ve conserved the equivalent of Sydney Harbour every year, from a finite resource,” Anne said.

“At first, I was so naive, I thought if I just took all the evidence to the politicians, and they could see that I had scientific evidence from groundwater engineers they’d do something, but they never did a thing,” Anne says.

“Then the government decided to start auctioning off the water we’d saved – which we managed to stop for a while. So, from there I just got more and more hysterical about saving water.”

It was at this time Anne became aware of the dangers of “fracking” and coal seam gas on our underground water source.

Anne played a significant part in convincing the Coonamble Shire Council to pronounce a freeze on coal seam gas mining within the Shire in 2010 — a declaration that still stands.

In an attempt to allay her concerns for properties around Coonamble, a local politician invited Anne to tour a gas field, a tour she says was ‘sanitised’ in order to shine everything in a good light.

Moving to Orange five years ago, Anne now spends most of her days enjoying the company of her grandchildren and friends, but she still finds time to write letters and submissions to the government continuing her fight for our precious water resource.

“They wined and dined us, and they told us how wonderful it was, just wonderful,” she said.

It’s a battle that’s ongoing and expensive, she says, and fracking may have already done irreparable damage to our aquifers.

But it was when visiting Queensland farmer and anti-fracking activist, Dayne Pratzky (the “Frackman” as he has become known) that Anne witnessed first-hand the impact of coal seam gas mining.

“My incredible passion is still for water, and I must fight on — I have 13 grandchildren, and I look at our precious water, thinking what are we doing to future generations?”

“He showed me his bore, and it was burping with gas, out of the ground all the time,” Anne recalled, describing how he’d thrown a match on the bore and the water caught fire.

‘What I’d been working on, with capping and piping work, we were encouraging people to cap and pipe and conserve the water and pressure. They were draining the water, polluting it, removing pressure and undoing years of water conservation,” Anne says.

With the Great Artesian Basin Protection

Anne’s inspiring story...

Our precious and productive farmlands, and our vital water, are under major threat from coal-seam-gas mining.

Orange local Anne Kennedy has for decades been working tirelessly to protect these irreplaceable resources.

Anne’s inspiring story of the fight to save our land and water for future generations is told in this book, as are the stories of eight other amazing women.

But after two decades of action, Anne also believes it is time now for younger generations to take up the fight for their environment.

“We need more young people, because the older ones are getting a bit burnt out. I’ve been in it for over 20 years, and a lot of my friends have pulled out, or given up.”

Anne urged people to join or support the work of organisations such as Lock the Gate (www.lockthegate.org.au) or the Great Artesian Basin Protection Group (www.gabpg.org.au)

Donato calls for more flood support in first speech to new parliament Member for Orange, Phil Donato, has used his first speech to the 58th Parliament of NSW to appeal for additional support for the victims of last year’s terrifying floods that devastated the communities of Eugowra, Forbes, Molong and Cudal.

Addressing the NSW Parliament on May 10, Mr Donato welcomed what financial assistance had been provided, but he said more needs to be done.

“Mr Speaker my last speech of the 57th parliament was of the devastating impacts of flooding across the communities in my electorate of Orange,” Mr Donato said.

Mr Donato called for more funding to local government to upgrade infrastructure and also suggested river gauge improvements to provide early warning of future flooding.

Mr Donato also called out “financially motivated and morally bankrupt” insurance companies for denying claims leaving families in limbo and unable to rebuild.

He suggested that “perhaps there is scope for increased accountability from insurers by government.”

Finally, Mr Donato praised the courage and resilience of the people living in these flood-affected communities and those who came to their aid.

“The magnitude of loss and damage and ongoing effects to lives and livelihoods is such that it is the subject of my first speech in the 58th Parliament.

“The floods caused immense damage to homes, to property and infrastructure, and tragically claimed the lives of two people,” he said.

“The government must work to provide additional support and resources to the affected communities including funding for the repair and reconstruction of infrastructure and for families to rebuild their lives and livelihoods,” he continued.

“I’d like to pay tribute to the courage and resilience of the people of Eugowra, Forbes, Molong and Cudal in the face of the floods. Their determination and sense of community spirit is an inspiration to us all and I’m proud to represent these communities.”

What’s in season at the Orange Producers Garage Sale Orange is home to some of the best produce in the country and right now it’s time to make the most of fresh new season apples, pears and abundant winter vegetables.

Making it easy to grab top-quality local produce, is the Producers Garage Sale, a weekly farmers market held every Saturday morning in the courtyard beside at Bills Beans East Orange.

Founded by local farmers last year, the Producers Garage Sale is all about making it easier to buy fresh local produce.

Head down this Saturday morning and stock up on delicious new-season apples and pears, broccoli, kale, pumpkin, cabbage, wombok cabbage, garlic, potatoes and more — all grown in our own backyard. Organic fruit and vegetables are also available.

Plus you’ll find gluten-free, grain-free, and paleo breads, baked goods and premixes. Along with High quality chutneys, relishes and local cheese.

You will find the Producers Garage Sale at Bills Beans East Orange courtyard (148 McLachlan Street) every Saturday morning, 8am–1pm.

Budget delivers treats, but also a few “broken bikkies”, says Gee Federal Member for Calare Andrew Gee has responded to this year’s federal budget describing it as “a mixed bag for the Central West.”

In a statement, Mr Gee said there were “definitely some budget treats in there, but there were also a few broken bikkies at the bottom of the tin.”

“On the positive side, the budget is back in black for the first time in 15 years with a $4 billion surplus for this financial year. Credit where it is due — that is an achievement to be proud of,” Mr Gee said.

“Unfortunately, we then go into deficit for the next four years. I would like to see the budget stay in surplus over those years.”

Mr Gee welcomed cost-of-living relief measures, including the $500 energy, but expressed concern that it does not go far enough and that a lot of working families will not qualify for the assistance.

But it was the lack of specific road funding for our area the Mr Gee said was one of the biggest disappointments in the budget.

“I was really looking for a big dollop of money to help our local councils clear their massive road repair backlog,” Mr Gee said. “It beggars belief that in 2023 local councils are choosing to close roads because they don’t have enough money to fix them.”

Mr Gee also lamented that there was no funding for Dixons Long Point and no word on what is happening to the Great Western Highway.

“I thought the $3.5 billion to help GPs do more bulk billing for pensioners, concession card holders and those under 16 was a welcome initiative,” he said, “although I remain concerned that the budget doesn’t do enough to help ease the country GP shortage.

“Similarly, I thought the $55.3 billion over four years for more childcare subsidies was good news, but I am concerned that there is not enough in the budget to increase the number of early childhood educators.

“All in all, credit where it is due to the government on the positives, but there’s still a lot more work that needs to be done to turn around some of the negatives for country communities,” Mr Gee concluded.

Dianne Yarwood on finding meaning near death, and the courage to live the life she wanted

Dianne Yarwood was a 40-year-old mother of three when she had a life-changing brush with death.

S

eriously ill and fighting for her life, Dianne found herself confronting the very real prospect of her own imminent death.

“In the emergency room, I knew I was dying,” Dianne recalls. “I expected to die… completely accepted that I was going to die within a day or two, but I was incredibly lucky.”

It was the emergency doctor treating Dianne that recognised she was suffering from a rare autoimmune disorder and his swift intervention saved her life.

But surviving this brush with death left Dianne changed, and reawakened her long-

neglected teenage dreams of being a writer.

“I went from the position of no life to being brought back to life — and I’ve never forgotten that feeling and that awareness of how precious life is and that’s the feeling I wanted to try and describe and show in novel form,” says Dianne, who recently published debut novel, The Wakes, draws inspiration from this experience.

“It’s a book about the importance of death – that it gives our choices meaning, and that life is finite,” explains Dianne, who is still thrilled to find herself a published author.

“It’s a bit of a dream to actually have it happen — it’s like I’ve woken up in someone else’s life.”

The Wakes, which also looks set to become a future television series, has been selected by Central West Libraries for the One Library One Book community reading program, and Dianne will be touring the region next week to meet with local readers and discuss the book.

Dianne’s excited to be coming to the Central West and says there’s lots to discuss regardless of where you’re up to in the book.

“We have some really interesting discussions about books and writing, and life and the experiences I’ve had with life and death – hopefully, in the end, an uplifting discussion,” says Dianne, who reveals that the Colour City also plays a part in the backstory of one of the

characters in The Wakes.

“It’s only brief, but it’s quite an important part of the book,” says Dianne, who lives in Sydney with her family, but is effusive about her fondness for our region.

“I love Orange, and I’m really excited to come back!”

Hear Dianne Yarwood discuss The Wakes at Orange Library at 5.30pm Tuesday, May 23.

Half a century of support from

Orange Premi-Babes Association

T

he Premi-babes Association of Orange are celebrating 50 years of providing vital support to Orange Health Service and other local district hospitals.

It was an organisation formed by concerned parents, said President of Premi-Babes Association of Orange Maggie Steventon, who realised that our local hospitals could use extra support.

“Although the hospital, in the day, did have the bare basics to look after these little babies, by having a fundraising group they could make things a lot better,” Maggie said.

“They could use the money to buy more humidicribs, and purchase other pieces of equipment which would make things easier for the nursing staff looking after the babies, the babies and for the parents of

these babies – that was really the driving force behind it.”

Fundraising is run by a small team of dedicated volunteers, conducting barbecues, raffles and donations, however, the results have been a godsend for many families.

The Association has been able to purchase items such as humidicribs, neonatal monitors, portable ultrasound units, jaundice meters, oximeters, blood pressure monitors, humidifiers, breast pumps and bottle warmers, weighing scales and carry packs.

“A couple years ago we donated about $30,000 to enable the hospital to set up another room with a crib that was away from the special care nursery – a separate room in case they needed a bit of privacy for parents,” Maggie said.

“Most of the time we’re donating money

for smaller pieces of equipment like breast pumps and bottle warmers, things that just make life a little easier.

“Another thing we do is we make little packs — because, of course, people don’t expect they’ll have premi-babes — in them we have beanies and a few booties, and 000000 Bonds suits. And we just put in some information about Premi-babes in case they’d like to join us,” Maggie said.

Recently, the group’s financial assistance has included support for midwives, and community nurses to attend training courses.

The past 50 years have seen many improvements in technology and training around supporting women during pregnancy, and when premature babies are born.

But Maggie said there is still a great need for the support the Association

provides and they always looking for more volunteers.

Then and now As part of the 50-year celebrations of the Premi-Babes Association of Orange, they are calling for anyone born prematurely at Orange Hospital between 1923 and now to get in touch for a special photo exhibition at the Orange Health Service.

“Were you a premature baby born between 1973 and now? Were you born at Orange Base Hospital, or transferred there? This year the Premi-Babes Association of Orange celebrate 50 years…

To help us celebrate, we would appreciate you sharing “then and now” photos of yourself, along with brief testimonials,” reads the group’s appeal on social media.

Thank You for the Music!

Early Years Music School celebrates 10 years “There’s so many things that are happening when a child engages in music; they’re naturally wired for it,” says early childhood music specialist and educator, Ruth Thompson.

“Making sense of the sounds around them, including voices and music, is the first skill babies are developing. From the prosody of a Carers voice to the delightful hum of a lullaby, children and music are a winning combination.

Queensland for 20-odd years,” she continues.

been welcomed into people’s lives where she has watched the impact of music on young children as they’ve grown.

“It was always in the back of my mind to marry the early years training with the music and it just gave me an opportunity to create work for myself — I didn’t think it would survive as long to be honest!”

“They can’t walk and dance, they can’t even move their bodies in a coordinated way to respond to what they’re hearing, but they’re definitely wired to absorb and learn from the rich environment around them!” she continues enthusiastically.

But from small beginnings, Ruth’s school has grown and thrived to the point where she can no longer take new enrolments, now accommodating people as best she can on a casual basis whenever a space opens up.

Spend any time talking with Ruth and you are quickly won over by her passion and the genuine love she has for music-making and singing. It’s easy to see why her Early Years Music School has been such a hit with parents — and more importantly kids — here in Orange, Millthorpe and surrounds.

It was ten years ago this month that Ruth founded the Early Years Music School, combining her experience as a classroom music specialist with her training as an early childhood teacher to provide fun, early music experiences specifically targeted for children aged 0-5.

Ruth said the support from the community these past ten years has been simply overwhelming. From being offered a space to work at Orange Public School and then at her current location, the Church of Christ Hall on Burrendong Way, to the many parents, grandparents and children who’ve eagerly filled her classes week in, week out.

“Mums and young bubs, mums and grandparents have really taken my vision to heart and supported me,” says Ruth.

“May 2013… I began in Millthorpe, in the CWA Hall. I used to pack my little car up with all my bits and pieces and set it all up in the hall and then pack it all the way and leave – so we began in a very small way,” recalls Ruth, who at the time had just relocated to the Central West from Queensland’s Sunshine Coast.

“I just came back to my roots, I suppose, in one sense… I’m actually an early childhood trained teacher, I’m musically trained as well and was a classroom music specialist in

“It’s really, really precious just to have grandmothers and grandfathers, carers, aunts, and all sorts of people coming in and engaging with me. I’ve had families with me from the time their babies are two months old through to when they start school and so I’ve been privileged to be part of their lives for a long period of time.

“They all have a greater level of confidence and it feeds into all areas of learning…they have a much greater level of language and understanding, even their ability to selfregulate, to self-settle is increased,” says Ruth.

I really want to say thank you to the community of Millthorpe and Orange because without them supporting my business, I wouldn’t be here.”

And while many of her students have gone on to pursue music, Ruth says creating musicians and singers has never been what her school is about.

“A lot of them have just been naturally drawn to music and that’s fantastic, but that’s not the primary goal,” says Ruth.

“The primary goal is to give children a beautiful experience that builds them into great human beings. Because without music, where are we? Music… it’s in everything, we need it!”

The Early Years Music School has been a labour of love for Ruth, who genuinely loves what she does, but it is not something she can do forever.

“I’d love to find somebody that I could train up, to work with me and then eventually take over the school because I’m getting older and it would be a shame if the school stopped,” she says.

“So it’d be really nice to find somebody with early childhood training, somebody that had a bit of a crazy personality — and played the guitar would be good. If there’s somebody passionate, I’d love to meet them!”

Charity dinner to support surgeon’s work in Africa

Special guest at the May 24 charity dinner at Duntryleague Golf Club will be the Barbara May Foundation’s medical director, Australian surgeon Dr Andrew Browning.

Dr Browning explained that obstetric fistulas result from a mother being in labour, sometimes for up to 10 days, leaving her incontinent of urine and/or faeces and often ostracised for the rest of her life.

“For more than 20 years I have been privileged to operate on more than 7,000 women living with obstetric fistulas in

“Obstetric fistula, or internal tearing or holes, result from obstructed childbirth where a doctor is not available to perform a caesarean section. This is unheard of in Australia but more than 2 million women in Africa suffer with this debilitating and isolating condition.”

“The Barbara May Foundation is an Australian-run charity established to help

prevent obstetric fistula, and at the same time provide fistula repair through good, free, maternal healthcare.

The night includes raffle prizes, and people can bid on items such as luxury short breaks in

“This care is available simply because people, just like residents of Orange, donate money to help operate our hospitals across Tanzania, Ethiopia and South Sudan,” Dr Browning said.

Canberra, Central Coast and the Blue Mountains.

“Many local businesses are supporting the event with fabulous prizes closer to home as well,” Dr Browning concluded.

“Very importantly the Foundation is helping to train African doctors to undertake this vital work.

Dr Browning will be sharing his firsthand experiences in Africa and also will be available to sign his book, A Doctor in Africa. All profits go to support the healthcare of women in Africa through the Barbara May Foundation.

The fundraiser will be held at Duntryleague from 6.30pm on Wednesday, May 24. Book your tickets now at trybooking.com/CGKXK Dr Browning will also be at Collins Bookshop at 11.30 am on Thursday, May 25 to sign copies of his book, A Doctor in Africa.

Arthritis is caused in pets just as in humans, when damage to a joint causes inflammation and pain. The movement of the joint is restricted and the pain can become constant for your furry friend. Arthritis is made worse by injury, by age or by general wear and tear. But it’s not just a condition that affects elderly animals - some breeds of dog are more prone to arthritis, and any overweight pet is at risk. Pets can’t tell us how they are feeling, so what signs should a caring owner look for?

In cats it’s much harder to detect the early signs

12

The good news is that there are many treatments for the pain of arthritis, and your pet can have his or her life transformed. Anti-inflammatories, pain medication and changing your pet’s diet to one formulated to help with joint health, can all make a big difference. Supplements like 4-Cyte make a delicious treat which also benefits joints.

Of course, keeping your pet at a healthy weight is a great way to improve his or her health – and not just for arthritis! This month, your cat, dog or rabbit can come to Mulberry Lane Vet Hospital for a FREE ATHRITIS CHECK UP and get advice about the best diet and treatment to help.

Our reception area is stocked with everything your pets might need – a full range of quality pet food including special diets for pets with arthritis, dietary supplements for better joint health, treats to help maintain healthy teeth, and flea/worm treatments. Plus friendly advice for you and your pet - we look forward to seeing you soon!

Have you noticed your dog looks sore in the morning? Is he reluctant to walk or play? Has their behaviour changed – perhaps he or she might be snappy when touched. An arthritic dog may limp, show stiffness or have difficulty getting upstairs or into the car. Jumping on to the couch might be hard work. If your dog is showing some or all of these symptoms, then a check up with one of the friendly vets at Mulberry Lane Vet Hospital is definitely needed.

of arthritis. Cats are very good at hiding pain, so it is important to keep a close eye on their behaviour. A cat in pain may sit in a hunched up position, or hide away. He or she might spend less time playing and more time asleep than usual. She may be hesitant to jump on or off the furniture, or be reluctant to climb stairs. Cats usually keep themselves very clean, so matted fur or a decrease in grooming is not a good sign.

Live The Life You Please: Uplifting film changing the way we think about end-of-life care Free local screening for Palliative Care Week, May 24

O

range residents are invited to a free screening of the uplifting documentary, Live the Life You Please at Odeon 5 Cinema on Wednesday, May 24 during Palliative Care Week.

Live the Life You Please is an Australian-produced documentary feature film about living and dying in Australia.

Orange advocacy group, Push 4 Palliative says it could change the way you think about palliative care.

“Our group has been working hard to

improve the range of options and choices available to our community for end-oflife care,” Push 4 Palliative vice president Janice Harris said.

and their families. The film shows that palliative care is more than medicine – it is about quality of life right up until the very last day.

“We are of course delighted to hear there is to be an increase in the number of palliative care beds at Orange Hospital, but we are also working hard with a number of stakeholders to secure a 12-bed hospice for palliative care for people of all ages,” she added.

“It’s about providing physical, social, emotional, and spiritual support to patients and their loved ones and embracing every moment,” Janice said.

Janice said this beautiful film will show everyone just what is possible when it comes to end-of-life care.

At the heart of Live The Life You Please are a series of unexpected moments of joy caught between caregivers, patients

This free screening is open to everyone, Janice said. Attendees will also have the opportunity to talk with members of Orange Push for Palliative about the film and the work they do in Orange.

See Live the Life You Please at Odeon 5 Cinema 6.15pm on Wednesday, May 24.

The screening is free and will be followed by a light supper.

Construction Cost Escalation NSW residential construction costs continue to rise at alarming rates.

In the period 2020-2021, the average increase in construction costs for an average residential home rose by 20%. Since 2021 they have risen, annually, at approximately 10.3%. In NSW there was a 4% rise in building costs during the 3 months to September 2022. Although this increase is predicted to slow down somewhat, predictions are an increase of 5% to 7% in construction costs in NSW during 2023-2024.

There has been a backlog of construction which was caused during Covid 19 and the catch up on that work has increased demand for construction materials and trades which has resulted in increased prices. Also due to disastrous floods and fire in the last 3 years there has been an extra demand in re-build and repair work resulting in a reduction of available trades and great demand for construction materials.

All of this has created problems for both Builders and Home Owners.

Builders are currently facing the dilemma that Building Contracts for which they have quoted, and signed Contracts in late 2021 or early 2022, are now substantially underpriced and when completed the builder’s profit margin will be significantly reduced and, in some cases, the costs of completing the residence will result in a net loss to the Builder. Builders cannot continue to absorb such reduced margins, or losses, as this effects their ability to purchase materials and maintain reliable tradesmen. Builders entering into new Contracts must therefore inflate their Contract Price so as to anticipate and absorb the rise in construction costs during the building period.

This cycle continues to increase the construction costs of the average residential home forcing Home Owners to borrow more when interest rates are continually rising.

Many building firms caught up in this construction cost cycle are being forced into liquidation, leaving Home Owners with half constructed homes, drawn down building loans and no effective redress.

Home loan lenders should be encouraged to be more flexible and more forward thinking in the way they structure building loans. Instead of insisting on Fixed Price Contracts where the building price may have been artificially inflated above what will be the ultimate construction costs plus builders margin, lenders could approve advances on a costs plus basis with approval extending beyond the quoted price to allow sufficient additional funds to be drawn down, if and when required to meet the final cost.

Alternatively, if lenders continue to insist on Fixed Price Contracts they should either require that the borrower retain a significant proportion of their equity deposit to cover anticipated increases or alternatively to approve loans based on the Fixed Price Contract but with an additional drawdown facility which may or may not be used but remains available if needed when and if the Contract Price is exceeded.

Home Owners should be careful not to borrow to their approval limit when entering into new Residential Constructions Contracts.

Please do not hesitate to approach Blackwell Short Lawyers for your legal requirements.

THE GOOD ENOUGH

Parent with EMILY THOMPSON

Mother’s Day support groups So OF COURSE I’m not complaining.

I appreciate the dads, the kids, the P&Cs, the teachers, the retail staff and everyone involved in making Mother’s Day as magical as possible. And especially my husband, daughters and their respective schools, they did a beautiful job.

better option.

But I’m here today to relaunch this column as the MWGBBDNOAB Support Group, that’s right, the “Mums Who Got Bath Bombs Despite Not Owning A Bathtub.

I received a new purse, lovely photo gifts and a jigsaw which I proceeded to ignore my family for the next five hours to complete. Miss Eight was incredibly impressed with the size of my new purse. “You could fit a whole taco in it!” she exclaimed, immediately cementing tacos as our new family unit of measurement. Spurred by this, I announce that tacos have been added to this week’s meal plan.

Now, I do currently have a bathtub, but didn’t for about 9 months in 2016.

I mean, I did… but it lived behind the couch in the lounge room as Hubby and I had the fight that nearly ruined us: “Let’s choose floor tiles together as part of a super fun bathroom renovation that will just strengthen our love for each other.”

I have long been a member of MWGEDNHPE (Mums Who Get Earrings Despite Not Having Pierced Ears) and I am a shameful member of MWGOITDHTSMBO (Mums Who Get Organisers In The Desperate Hope They Somehow Magically Become Organised). It’s never worked. I’m up to FIVE empty family planners due to my stubborn ineptitude for planning…

Also, it’s two-thirty in the afternoon. I just ate a punnet of cherry tomatoes for lunch despite the fact I’ll get reflux from them because I’m in my forties… and this article should have been submitted about five hours ago.

I also hold great, great love for the MWGNILWFCOSOT (Mums Who Got Nighties Incorrectly Labelled With False Claims Of Sleep On Them). Labels that read “Let Me Sleep In” and “Sweet Dreams” and the particularly cruel “Sleeping Beauty”. Lies. All Lies. “So Sleep-Deprived All I Can Do Is Ugly Cry In The Shower” would be a much, much

But this Mother’s Day was actually lovely. I got to sleep in (Sorry new mums!

You will sleep again someday, I promise!) and then I was treated to a divine breakfast made by Miss 14 and Hubby while Miss Eight read the book she bought herself while shopping for me.

“You meal plan?!?” asks Hubby incredulously.

Lastly, I’d like to start a support group for MM:MWMWTMHTTTDAGJ (Motherless Mothers: Mums Who Mum Without Their Mums Here To Tell Them They’re Doing A Good Job) because I miss my mum on Mother’s Day. But I miss her more the next morning when I ask Miss Eight why her lunch box is still on the floor from Friday and none of her washing has been put away.

“I was BUSY,” she informs me, like it’s completely my fault, “doing Mother’s Day things for YOU.” I miss her more because I would give anything in the world to call my mum and share Miss Eight’s hilarious antics as we both giggle.

So happy Mother’s Day to everyone!

The well-rested and the exhausted, the organised and the free-form, the mothered and the left-behind, the bathed and the bathless, and those who wasted their eight-year-old megalomaniac’s entire weekend. You are so, so loved!

HD is devastating for patients, their families and loved ones. The lack of awareness and support adds to the trauma and isolation.

Rachael Brooking and her small team have done an outstanding job to raise awareness and vital funding for HD in our region.

Thank you very much to everyone who attended the High Tea!

Not much is known in the wider community about HD. It’s an inherited condition that affects the nervous Andrew with Reg Goldring system. Although HD can occur at any age, symptoms often do not appear until middle age and they worsen over time.

While there are treatments that can alleviate symptoms, there is no cure.

Life expectancy for those with HD is generally around 10 to 30 years following the onset of

Unfortunately, we then go into deficit for the next four years.

There were some positives in there for cost-of-living relief, including the $500 energy rebates. That will help a lot of people, however I’m concerned that a lot of working families will not qualify for that assistance.

I was disappointed that there was no specific road funding for our area. While all of the existing funding programs have remained in place which is positive, I was really looking for a big dollop of money to help our local councils clear their massive road repair backlog.

Whilst there was funding for the Bells Line of Road (to honour a $100 million commitment the government has made which is positive) there was no funding for Dixons Long Point, and no word on what is happening to the Great Western Highway.

There was $845 million for increased biosecurity

I thought the $3.5 billion to help GPs do more bulk billing for pensioners, concession card holders and those under 16 was a welcome initiative, although I remain concerned that the budget doesn’t do enough to help ease the country GP shortage.

It is disappointing that the Government has not changed course on their plan to introduce 60-day dispensing, which will force many pharmacies to cut services, worsen medicine supply shortages, and may endanger the lives of vulnerable patients.

Similarly, I thought the $55.3 billion over four years for more childcare subsidies was good news, but I am concerned that there is not enough in the budget to increase the number of early childhood educators.

All in all, credit where it is due to the government on the positives, but there’s still a lot more work that needs to be done to turn around some of the negatives for country communities.

Today was another milestone with the reopening of Eugowra’s famed butcher shop, Eugowra Quality Meats.

The shop was hit hard by the floodwaters and since then, Rob Taylor has taken it over from Bill and Helen Turner. I picked up some top quality t-bones while I was there this afternoon! Make sure you support it! A lot of effort has gone into bringing this business back.

LET’S TALK MONEY

with DANIEL MCGREGOR

“What’s the best way to invest money at the moment?”

T

his is a question that’s often asked and there is no magic answer.

Here’s some important advice… anyone who tells you they know the best place to invest money RIGHT NOW is either a dodgy salesperson or they’re kidding themselves.

There are many factors which need to be considered when choosing how to invest money. In broad terms, there are only four places you can invest money – cash, fixed interest, property and shares. You can invest your money across all four of them in any combination and how you choose to invest across them will determine how much risk you’re taking with your money and the potential you have to make money.

Everyone has a different tolerance for risk and different people are willing to go

to different lengths to make money. It’s all about passing the ‘Sleep at Night’ test.

That is, however you choose to invest your money, it needs to be in a way that you’re comfortable with. If you’re not comfortable with your investments, then you’ll likely panic when things change.

Many people I work with come to see me with preconceived ideas about what investments they think are best. Therefore, a big part of helping people find the right way for them to invest their money is in educating them about what the different investment options are and the pros and cons of each. After all, we don’t know what we don’t know!

Often this is quite enlightening for people as their existing ideas are often based on not having all the information. The reality is that most of us pick up our money habits and our thoughts on investing from our

parents and those closest to us. And most of our parents didn’t have much of an idea about these things because neither did their parents. It’s a fact that financial literacy is poor, but as we are all living longer and longer, it’s never been more important.

That’s why I invest the time with my clients to open their eyes and empower them with information when it comes to investing.

term. Property and shares are growth assets – higher risk, higher return and they’re perfect for money earmarked for the long term. Matching the right investments to the right time frames is how you achieve the balance of protecting money in the short term, while also growing money to combat inflation and create wealth in the long term.

And here’s the thing: investing is nowhere near as hard as the ‘experts’ would have you believe!

At the end of the day, the ultimate investment mistake is not investing. The trick is to get the right mix of investments.

Once you know the investments that are available and how they work, it starts to become much easier to see how you can make investments work for you. The key is to choose the right investments for the right time frame.

And don’t forget, we’re all investors through our superannuation.

Cash and fixed interest are defensive assets – low risk, low return and they’re perfect for money earmarked for the short

‘Puffin’ Along With Betty:

B

Going Solo From Afghanistan to Venice etty Stroud loves to travel. From short hops over the ditch to New Zealand to trekking overland from Kathmandu to London, the former music shop owner and retired Uniting Church minister is not afraid of adventure and, mostly, travels alone.

“Some people ask, why bother travelling to those places?

And for me, it broadens your mind, gives you a different perspective on life.”

Writing a few tales for her family and friends, Betty said they encouraged her to keep going and the end result has been this book: a collection of stories detailing such experiences as her time in the Galapagos Islands, a one-day trek to Machu Picchu, leaving her passport behind in Afghanistan, spending two hours with a puffin colony on Fair Isle in Scotland and walking the last 115 kilometres of The Camino in Spain.

Now Betty has compiled a small selection of her travel tales into a new book, Puffin’ Along With Betty: Going Solo From Afghanistan to Venice, which she hopes might spark a little wanderlust in others.

Born and raised in Dubbo, Betty was initially a piano teacher, who saw the need for a local music shop and opened her own, ‘Betty’s Music’, in what is now The Grapevine Cafe.

But in 1995, she says a change of life beckoned, and Betty became a Uniting Church Minister, going on to serve in Cowra, Singleton, Parkes and Forbes, before retiring to Orange in 2010.

It was as a child, Betty says, that her imagination was stirred by books containing pictures and stories of far-flung places.

And then sister’s tales of exploits overseas only further ignited her desire to travel.

“I was always determined that before I went overseas, I was going to see a bit of Australia which I did,” says Betty

“Then I went from Kathmandu to London in 1976 — alone – which took me through places such as India, Afghanistan, Iran and Turkey. That took three months and I was away for ten months in all.”

And Betty has continued to travel ever since, usually alone, at any chance she can get.

“I find travelling solo to be a great way to travel,” she says.

“I meet lots more people, am able to go where I want and do what I want, and it forces me to rely on my ingenuity and imagination.

CELEBRATING 10 YEARS OF OPERATION The Management Committee would like to thank all volunteers, sponsors, donors and customers who have been an integral part of FoodCare Orange over the past 10 years.

CalCium SCore

VIC HOTEL

One fifth of Australians aged 45-74 years have a high chance of having a heart attack or stroke in the next five years. If you are over 45 years, you can have a regular heart health check with your GP. They will check your cholesterol, blood glucose levels and blood pressure, and if appropriate, may refer you for a CT calcium score. CT calcium score measures the amount of calcified plaque in the arteries. It’s a quick, noninvasive test that takes around 15 minutes. Based on the result, they are able to estimate your risk of heart attack/stroke. Understanding your risk of having a heart attack or stroke is the first step in lowering your risk. Together with your doctor, you can then take steps to lower your risk.

100 YEARS

A local institution since 1923, The Vic, celebrated its 100th birthday this month. A great local music venue too, with 4 On the 4loor celebrating 25 years. Congratulations on these magnificent milestones.

CLANCY PYE’S NEW FEEL GOOD, GUITAR DRIVEN TRACK Local country singer/songwriter, Clancy Pye, has released a brand new single, alongside a music video filmed in her hometown of Oberon.

‘Feels Like Home’ is Clancy’s first release since launching her 2020 self-titled EP, which featured two #1 iTunes Country Chart singles, ‘Get Lost’ and ‘Heaven Can’t Wait’.

It’s the first single from her new album set to be released next year.

‘Feels Like Home’ is an infectious feel-good, guitardriven track that embodies Clancy’s country roots.

It draws inspiration from her own family upbringing, growing-up on a property outside Oberon.

“One of the strongest connections I think we all have in life is our connection to home and those simple things that make us feel at home, wherever we may be,” Clancy said.

“As we go through life, I think we often come to think of ‘home’ as not necessarily a place, but a feeling and I wanted this song to capture those sentiments that

hopefully other people can relate to as well.”

‘Feels Like Home’ was written during the height of the Covid outbreak, a time of disruption for many of us, but for Clancy, it was a time of great creativity where she penned over 150 songs having set herself a goal of writing a song every week.

“I’ve been performing most Friday and Saturday nights since I was in primary school, so it was a very rare time in my life, with the lockdowns, where I, unfortunately, wasn't able to be out performing every weekend,” she said.

“But what that time allowed me to do was spend a lot of time at my desk songwriting, and I actually found it a really enjoyable time, as tough as it was. It just allowed me to really focus on that creative process, and allowed me to write a lot of songs that I might not have been able to in the busyness of everyday life.”

For the music video that accompanies her new single Clancy went back to her hometown of Oberon, teaming up with Orange-based video director Dave Smyth and Toby Howell (The Studio Door Creative).

“I really wanted to showcase the place that most feels like home to me in the music video,” Clancy explained. “ It was nice to go back to Oberon and film many of the locations I had in my mind when I was writing the song. It’s special to be able to share the places I grew up and my hometown in the video.”

With more songs in the pipeline for release, Clancy looks forward to sharing more music throughout 2023 and beyond.

‘Feels Like Home’ is available to download or stream across all music platforms.

Look out ladies, the hunks from Sydney Hotshots are back to sizzle and seduce for one night only, June 17, at the Orange City Bowling Club.

This smorgasbord of sexy guys are selected from 100s of men nationwide and put through an intensive “Hotshots Bootcamp”, all graduating with an A+ in hip thrusting! These fellas come from various backgrounds – tradies, cops, farmers, firemen — and are all eager to entertain the ladies of Australia!

Hosted by one of original cast members of Manpower Australia and Las Vegas headliner, Paul Reynolds, whose cheeky banter with the audiences makes for an extra entertaining evening.

A totally interactive production, it’s the perfect night out with the girls!

Breaking the silence around First Nations human rights Featuring an all-First Nations cast, Queensland performing arts company Karul Projects presents SILENCE, a powerful new contemporary dance performance about a conversation they refuse to let be silenced.

Critically acclaimed for the contemporary treatment of issues that evade First Nations’ human rights, SILENCE is an hour-long performance that encompasses dramatic and visual storytelling replete with dialogue, humour, and rhythmic percussion – all the elements of which add up to a transformative stage experience.

Choreographed and written by Karul Projects’ co-founder and director, Thomas E.S. Kelly, SILENCE explores First Nations people’s struggle for land rights and unheard conversations around Treaty.

“It’s about continuing the conversation about a treaty, and continuing a conversation about the relationship between Indigenous and non-indigenous Australians,” says Kelly, a proud Minjungbal-Yugambeh, Wiradjuri and Ni-Vanuatu man.

There has never been any agreement about what the world is today for Indigenous Australians, he continues.

‘What we’re offering is a conversation-starter so that people can continue to talk about a Treaty in the foyer, and when they get home, with their friends. As a proud

Indigenous man living in this world, it was important to me that this was something that we could have a conversation about, in a heartfelt, meaningful way.”

Dynamic live percussion is a driving feature of SILENCE, performed using traditional possum-skin drums, representing the continuous heartbeat of Country.

“People are always surprised at how amazing the drum kit is and how much it resonates – it’s pretty kick-ass!” says Kelly.

But SILENCE is very personal for Kelly and the rest of the cast, he says, and at times emotional.

“There’s definitely a lot of emotions when we’re performing, and when we’re chanting the slogan, ‘Always was – always will be,” he says.

“I really love performing it. Every time I do it, I just think there’s something special about it.

“It’s a pretty incredible show – the reviews and the feedback has been incredible. It is a dance work, but there is theatre. There’s humour too, which I think is important. If people are laughing it means they’re listening.

See SILENCE at the Orange Civic Theatre, 7.30pm Friday, May 26. Book your ticket at Ticketek or call 6393 8111.

Last chance to catch OTC’s School of Rock this weekend Orange Theatre Company’s production of School of Rock is in its final days! Don’t miss out on this fantastic local adaption of this much-loved musical comedy.

Based on the hit film, this hilarious new musical follows Dewey Finn, a failed, wannabe rock star who decides to earn a few extra bucks by posing as a substitute teacher at a prestigious prep school. There he turns a class of straight-A students into a guitar-shredding, bass-slapping, mindblowing rock band!

Featuring 14 new songs from Andrew Lloyd Webber and all the original songs from the movie, this high-octane smash delivers face-melting guitar riffs and touching romance in equally awesome doses!

See Orange Theatre Company’s School of Rock at the Orange Civic Theatre: 7.30pm Friday, May 19 1pm and 7.30pm Saturday, May 20 1pm Sunday, May 21 Book your tickets at Ticketek or call 63938111.

400g large dry beans

·

4 garlic cloves, peeled

·

·

1 carrot chopped in half

·

1 crushed tomato tin

·

200g fresh chorizo (whole)

·

10 g Smoked pimentón (Spanish paprika)

2 Bay leave

·

METHOD:

Judias with Chorizo In a town where fast food chains are taking over the hospitality scene, I’d like to keep offering to your family recipes that are economical, nutritionally delicious and perfect for the cold season ahead.

As you know, I love eating with a spoon and pulses are a very important part of Spanish traditional food.

Thanks to my cooking classes here in Orange, I’ve realised that many people are quite afraid of cooking with dry pulses.

That’s why today I’m going to share with you one of the most traditional recipes you’ll find in the Iberian Peninsula: judias con chorizo (beans with chorizo).

First things first, allow me to tell you that beans are an amazing source of protein, fibre, iron and heaps of antioxidants — essential for your diet — especially the dry ones! I know we always talk about the lack of time to cook slow food at home, but trust me when I tell you that your pocket and tastebuds will feel the difference.

Here are the three basics things you need to know about dry beans, to help you understand what to do with them: First, you need to soak them overnight

(super important).

Second, if you want to end up with a perfect-looking bean at the end of your cooking (instead of skins falling off, broken beans, etc..) you need to learn the Spanish technique of ‘scare the beans’. This is the literal translation of the Spanish name for a very simple process where you adjust the temperature of the boiling cooking liquid by adding a glass of cold water (which must be done three times).

Third, you don’t need to spend a lot of time chopping your vegetables really small, because your sauce will be made by blending the cooked vegetables with some of the liquid at the end. This is a very smart way to create a rich and thick sauce without having to add any starch to it!

I really hope you give this traditional Autumn recipe a try, part of our humbled and rustic ‘cocina de aprovechamiento’, the zero-waste home cooking approach we learned from our grandmothers when we were kids.

1. Soak the beans the night before so they are hydrated. The next morning, drain the beans and wash them well under the tap. Place them in a pot and add enough cold water to cover them.

2. Bring it to a boil, you’ll see the beans release foam and impurities that we need to remove. In order to do this, pass the beans through a strainer and rinse them well under the tap. Return the bean to the pot, along with the vegetables, peeled and roughly chopped. Add the whole chorizos, smoked paprika, oil and bay leaves.

3. Cover everything with cold water again and turn your stove on. Bring it to a boil. When this happens we need to add a glass of cold water (this step is called to ‘scare the beans’, it is a Spanish technique in order to keep the skin from the beans intact, so they are whole and look perfect at the end of the cooking process). FYI we will have to repeat this process twice more (remember, bring it to a boil and then add a glass of cold water).

4. Once the beans have been ‘scared’ 3 times, cover the pot and cook them on low heat for one-and-a-half to two hours (remember, the older the beans are the more time they need to cook). After this time, taste to test the texture of the beans.

Are they soft and ready? Perfect. Are they not? Give them another 30 minutes.

5. Remove the vegetables and chorizo from the pot. Put the chorizo aside on a plate.

6.

Meanwhile, blend all the veggies together with a little bit of the cooking liquid, making a puree. Return this sauce to the pot with the beans and stir gently until everything combines.

7. IMPORTANT! Taste again and adjust the seasoning (please do not do it before this moment or the bean may not cook evenly).

8. To serve: slice the chorizo and serve everything while it’s piping hot. Add a bit of fresh thyme on top if you like.

Enjoy!

Please make sure to cut this recipe out and put it on your fridge, your family will love it!

agent Ash Brown, of One Agency Orange.

“And the fact that it’s heating up the floor too, means you would probably go into the early hours of the evening and probably wouldn’t need a heater.

“Plus to have batteries and a whole lot of solar panels it virtually runs at zero cost or close to it, which is fantastic these days.”

The home has two 80,000L rainwater tanks, but conveniently, is also connected to town water and natural gas.

“Which is quite rare for a rural property, added Ash. “That whole estate has gas and town water” The five bedrooms (or four bedrooms and an office) and multiple living spaces all with external access make this a very versatile home, Ash said, whether you are looking for space to work from home or room for the kids.

This spacious family home was built just 10 years ago and offers three living areas, a large master suite, an undercover alfresco area, and an open plan kitchen, living and dining room. The pitched ceilings in these living areas and large double-glazed windows optimise views from all rooms and let in an abundance of natural light and solar heat in the cooler months.

And the home also features a 5.22KW solar system and two LG CHEM 48V lithium batteries for reduced energy costs.

“A standout, for me personally, would be that it’s solar passive, there’s a lot of northern aspect, which on a sunny winter day you just wouldn’t have to turn any heating on,” said selling

“Another of the standouts for that property for the kids is the access to the creek,” Ash said.

“It’s very nice quiet acreage, very little traffic and very private.

The owner planted that block out very well in the early days, so it’s quite a leafy block with a nice outlook too, some beautiful uninterrupted views.

“You have acreage with a shed and spot for the kids to run — it seems like a lot of people’s dream package!”

See for yourself!

Garden tips from The Avid Gardener…

Autumn means it’s time to propagate!

Passionate local gardeners Henrietta Hood and Peta Swift, co-founders of The Avid Gardener, are here to share a few tips and tricks for the garden with Orange City Life readers.

and lavender, which are not only lovely to look at in the garden, but they also attract bees. These wonderful little workers of nature will, in turn, assist in pollinating your veggie patch, increasing production and yields.

This week, Henrietta gives us a few pointers on the art of propagating plants.

Other cuttings that can easily be propagated include; bay, sage, banksias, grevillea, buddleja (butterfly bush), westringia (coastal rosemary), wormwood, hydrangeas.

Autumn is a wonderful time to think about propagation. Not only is this a very cost-effective way of sourcing plants, but it also means you are creating strong, robust cool climate plants that will thrive in our unique and tough climate (rather than hothouse-grown seedlings).

Some of our favourites to propagate are rosemary

Pot in small containers with good-quality potting mix Keep just moist (don’t over water) and sheltered from strong sun and wind.

Take 10cm cuttings from mature plants - choose healthy stems with fresh growth

Orange Property MARKET

Award-winning tourism destination, vineyard and stunning lifestyle home Heifer Station under the hammer June 23 One of the Orange region’s best-known tourism destinations and vineyards, Heifer Station, will go to auction on June 23.

reverse cycle heating/cooling, solar panels, a superb double-sided Philippe Cheminee wood fire, and a built-in barbecue kitchen and alfresco area with vineyard views, it is a home anyone would love to call their own.

The diversity of what this property offers is its biggest selling point, says selling agent Stewart Murphy of Elders Emms Mooney.

And there’s scope to take things to the next level, Stewart says, with a DA already “And the position of their house on the block in place to add a commercial kitchen to the ‘Barrel Shed’ function centre, plus a building is spectacular. It’s got some elevation and a northerly aspect. It looks over the vineyard, but entitlement to develop the stunning hilltop ‘Bull Paddock’ site, the location of past food and is set far enough off the road that you’re not wine festival events. getting noise… there’s a really beautiful feel about it.”

There is also scope to bring winemaking on site and increase the volume of wine produced, A profitable trading enterprise, Heifer as only half of the fruit grown on the property is Station’s multiple revenue streams include cellar door wine tasting experiences, retail wine currently being bottled, the rest being sold on the wine market. sales, small and large group functions, and

“It offers a lifestyle. Not just grapes, not just the cellar door… it offers a lifestyle within the Orange area, not far from town with diversity,” Stewart says.

Overlooking the entire vineyard, with views from every aspect is the exceptionally finished four-bedroom home, built by current owners Phillip and Michelle Stivens.

Featuring spacious living areas, doubleglazed windows, ducted gas heating and

which is being sold with all furniture and stylings included.

This rare 51.44ha (127 acres) offering includes an award-winning wine business and cellar door, plus a stunning four-bedroom country homestead with spectacular uninterrupted views across the 24ha (59 acres) vineyard and out to Mount Canobolas.

“It’s been beautifully done — it’s hard not to be impressed by it, to be honest with you,” Stewart says.

two-bedroom luxury ‘B&B’ accommodation,

Heifer Station has also hosted ‘Day on the Green’ music festival events with crowds of up to 10,000 people — a relationship the organisers are keen to continue.

The next chapter of the Heifer Station story is

Orange Property MARKET just waiting to be written, Stewart says.

“Whether that be getting more concerts going, building a restaurant, planting more grapes, exporting,” he says.

“It’s a story that has begun and now it’s time for new owners to start the next chapter and I think the opportunity is there to take it to a new level.”

Neglected blackberry patch to thriving wine and tourism business Heifer Station today is one of Orange’s most popular visitor destinations and a producer of sought-after premium cool climate wines — but it almost never happened.

When Phillip and Michelle Stivens bought the property in 2009, the vineyard had been long neglected, was overgrown with blackberries and full of disease.

“We purchased the property with the view to retire. It hadn’t been pruned or sprayed for five years and our plan was to just push it out and run fat cattle,” recalls Michelle.

It took three years of hard work to get the vineyard back into shape, with Phillip and Michelle borrowing equipment from neighbours and doing most of the work themselves, getting help from family and friends.

Their efforts were rewarded when their very first Shiraz in 2012 won a bronze medal and Heifer Station wines have gone on to receive many accolades since, including a medal from the London Wine Show and Trophy for the best Pinot Noir in NSW at the NSW Wine Awards.

In 2016, Phillip and Michelle took the leap and opened their now iconic cellar door, repurposing the century-old timber and corrugated iron wool shed on the property.

In the years since they have increased the area under vine and continued to expand the cellar door grounds, even opening a second tasting room and function centre, known as the ‘Barrel Shed’.

And there’s so much more they would have liked to do, says Michelle.

export. So there’s just so much potential left for the right person to take it to that next level.”

“But we just need to be 20 years younger,” adds Phillip.

Thoughts of selling the property hadn’t actually crossed either of their minds until they received an inquiry out of the blue.

While that sale didn’t eventuate it got them thinking seriously about the possibility, says Michelle.

“I actually resisted it for 12 months. I did not want to sell,” says Michelle. “And then, when we started imagining what our life could be without the business, it sounded good and we thought it’s probably time.

“We’ve loved it and it’s been good fun. It’s been great being involved in the community and great having a business where we can give back to our community. We’ve met some really lovely people and learnt so much.

“It’s going to be difficult to leave, but I know, no matter where we go, we will make “We would have loved to have been here it a lovely home with our family and friends long enough to put some cabins, some farm — and it’ll give us another project to do.” stay accommodation,” she says.

“Then Phillip kept coming home from town “We could bring winemaking in-house, saying someone else congratulated us on we could have a function centre for onbuying that vineyard and eventually he said, site weddings, a restaurant on site, more wholesale and we haven’t even touched on I’d really like to give it a go.”

Heifer Station will go to auction on June 23 at The Auction Centre, 152 William Street, Bathurst. The property is open for inspection by appointment only.

wo local entries in this year’s Never Late Fe-Mail Postie Bike Ride have written to say thanks to all those who supported their fundraising efforts for charity, Wings4Kids — an organisation that provides free regional air and ground transport service for seriously ill children and their families.

The two local teams; “The Fab Five” made up of Joanne Westcott, Jane Elliott, Tania Dalzell, Di Fenner and Michelle Zarnow and “Not Fast, Not Furious” made up of Michelle Morton, Annie Meagher and Bridgette Byrne wish to extend a very big thank you to all the local businesses, family and friends who contributed to their recent fundraising efforts.

The Never Late Fe-Mail Postie Bike Ride saw 38 ladies

at Crossroads Park,Cumnock (opposite General Store) travel approximately 750 kilometres over four days on postie bikes through dust, mud and pouring rain on dirt roads, laneways, paddocks and river crossings.

Spectacular scenery was enjoyed, while also dodging sheep, cattle and wildlife. There were more than enough near misses with kangaroos, deer and snakes!

The two teams pushed themselves out of their comfort zones and supported each other, while meeting other incredible women.

The Fab 5 team raised a whopping $17,000 for Wings4kids and $200,000 was raised overall through the ride.

Plans are already underway for next year’s ride.

With lots of fabulous country cooks contributing the fresh cakes and biscuits are legendary!

So too are the jams, chutneys and pickles.

Local honey is always popular and there are also stalls with beautiful craft items that make great gifts for any occasion.

Excellent coffee is available across the road at our General Store.

If it is raining, the market will be held under cover.

Visitors, or anyone wishing to have a stall, can get further information from Pat Gilmour by calling 6367 7270.

Last week I spent a few days down at my grandma’s house in southern Tasmania to help with a clean-up. My grandma has just gone into full-time care and we needed to get in and do a bit of a tidy-up. The thing was though, my grandma liked to collect things.

And I mean everything. She always had a plan to reuse and recycle as much as she could, like weaving a small handbag together out of old bailing twine and crocheting a hat out of old bread bags. We had a big job ahead of us and it was hard to know where to start when we opened the garage and the doorway to under the house.

But, by the end of three days, we achieved a lot. The hardest part of the clean-up process, however, was knowing what the trash was and what was the treasure. At many points throughout the day, I would hear cries of ‘Wow!’ or ‘What is that?’ from various parts of the house. Some of our best finds were a couple of old sea chests that my ancestors used to transport their belonging from England in the early 19th century, a couple of bottles of port and muscat that were 40-45 years old (and were delicious) and newspapers dating back to 1888.

But there was a lot of trash. We filled three skip bins of trash. At times we didn’t know whether we should throw something, keep it, or throw it on the bonfire. There were also moments when I found myself

feeling so sad. To be throwing away items that had been special to someone in years past. In my eyes it looked like junk, but to another it would have been special. We can sometimes think about our worldviews in that way too. What was once something that was held dear to many, is now regarded as rubbish, and must be thrown away.

Or what some regard as garbage and not worth a second look, is more precious than gold to others.

We see this in our world in the attitudes people can have towards one another or to people who hold a particular faith compared to others that do not. So, what is a treasure that some may regard as trash? For me, it is the life that God has promised to give through his son Jesus. This is the greatest treasure. In the Bible, in Proverbs 2:4-5 King Solomon described searching for God, like searching for treasure when he wrote: ‘If you seek it like silver and search for it as for hidden treasures, then you will understand the fear of the Lord and find the knowledge of God.’ This is the greatest treasure I found, or really, what found me and it changed my life. The next time you are doing a bit of a cleanout and wondering what is trash and what is treasure, perhaps you might also stop and think about what is trash or treasure when it comes to things of eternal significance.

CROSS PURPOSES

“WE COULD BE GOOD IF WE TRIED ….?”

WITH GRAHAME HORNIDGE “Hi, Bill,” said Eric. “I’ve been thinking again.”

“Careful!” said Bill, with a laugh. “You could blow your head up!”

Learning how to save a life There was plenty of drama when a man was ‘rescued’ from a ‘blazing’ room in Tattersall’s Hotel one day in April 1958. The rescue was part of a demonstration of artificial resuscitation given by St John Ambulance volunteers as part of Save a Life Week.

But the rescue was delayed when the Fire Brigade had to rush off to attend a real fire.

Pictured are John Spencer attending to the victim, watched by Police Inspector T Schuback and a large crowd.

The patient was then taken by ambulance to Orange Base Hospital.

Artificial respiration demonstrations were also given at the interval in the Century and Coronet cinemas that week.

Photo courtesy CWD Negative Collection, Orange & District Historical Society. Volunteers meet at the Heritage Centre, 148 March Street, on Wednesdays between 10.30am and 4pm, when members of the public are welcome to call in with inquiries.

“Lots of the blokes here at work reckon that they could be good if they tried, although they have no plans to try yet. They say they’ll put it off till they’re old.”

“Yeah,” said Bill. “And they think that having good intentions, or turning over a new leaf, or writing bullying policies for schools, those things will fix the problems around us. If only the government would pay for something or other, or make some new law, it would all be okay.

“But it doesn’t work that way. Those things remind me of painting over mould – the mould’s still there underneath and, after a while, it shows through.”

Eric was thoughtful. “I see it again. That’s why God had to intervene in Jesus. We actually CAN’T change ourselves; we need God to change our nature underneath. He can kill the mould. We can’t, because it’s our nature.”

“Yup,” said Bill. “It’s not about being good, but starting again with God’s help.”

THUMBS

EMAIL: reception@oclife.com.au | FACEBOOK: inbox “orangecitylife” | SMS 0459 022 084 this is a text only number standard SMS rates apply

THUMBS UP to the two precious paramedics who delivered me safely to ED very early last Monday morning. Thank you to the caring doctors and beautiful nurses in the Emergency Department and the Coronary Care Unit. Thank you to all the Technicians who carried out numerous testing, both in the hospital and P.R.P. Thank you immensely to Dr Ruth Arnold, Dr Ryan and Dr Luke for your professionalism and thoroughness in my medical support.

And a huge, warm ‘Thank You!’ to my GP, Dr Dona Monteray. We certainly are so very blessed with having such caring, supporting, knowledgeable medical personnel in our community.

Thank you all, again! Warm wishes from a happy patient!

THUMBS DOWN to Orange City Council for making paid parking in the Ophir carpark. Surely, we pay enough in rates to cover some things. We pay the highest rates in the state.

THUMBS DOWN to the person who leaves unsigned complaints in our letter box. At least have the decency and courage to sign the notes.

THUMBS UP to the truck driver from West End Motors who stopped to help me replace a blown-out tyre on Thursday, May 4 despite it being cold, miserable, and early in the morning. From a very grateful elderly lady.

THUMBS DOWN Can I just say a big thumbs down to the NSW government, and indeed the local government, for their lack of acknowledgement and celebration for the coronation of a new king. You may actually find that there are still a lot of people around who consider the coronation an important moment in all of our lives. Shame on you all.

THUMBS DOWN to Orange city council making residents pay for parking at the Kite Street parking lot across the road from the gym across the street. Seriously, what else do we have to pay for just to boost revenue? That’s a joke. Also, another big thumbs down for your idea to bring a KFC to Orange. This is why people are going out of town to buy things that we don’t have. (We are not entirely sure we understand this last complaint - Ed.) THUMBS DOWN to the guy who was flashing his high beams at people in his ute on Sale Street on the 8th of May. DOUBLE THUMBS UP to Orange City Council road workers for their efforts in fixing Cully Road. I do hope the locals and other road users are thankful and appreciate the work done. And most importantly that people obey and follow road signs.

Less speed, more care and respect for our rural roads and natural environment.

THUMBS DOWN to the Sydney Opera House for not being lit up for the King’s Coronation. Regardless of perceived popular opinion, Australia is still part of the Commonwealth, and we should have acknowledged our King’s special day.

THUMBS UP to Luke at the Orange Cemetery. Thank you so much for helping us locate an unmarked grave we have been searching for.

Have something on your mind?

Or would like to offer someone or a local business, some praise for a job well done...
