Frankston crime rate through the roof last year

CRIME in Frankston sky-rocketed well beyond the statewide average in 2023.

There were nearly 15,000 offences recorded in the Frankston local government area in 2023, a 17.4 increase on the 2022 figure.

The figures were released last month by the Crime Statistics Agency. According to the CSA, crime increased statewide in 2023 by 8.4 per cent. Frankston’s offence rate per 100,000 people last year was its worst since 2019.

In the Frankston LGA, the suburb of Frankston was by-far the worst affected by crime in 2023. More than 7500 offenses were recorded in Frankston, around three times more than the second-ranked Seaford. Carrum Downs, Langwarrin, and Frankston North rounded out the list of local suburbs most-affected by crime.

Family violence order breaches were the most common recorded offence in Frankston - more than 2000 breaches were recorded in 2023. More than 1000 thefts from motor vehicles and criminal damages were also recorded.

CSA chief statistician Fiona Dowsley said that increases in “high volume property and deception offences categories, particularly in thefts from motor vehicles and retail stores” is to blame for the statewide crime increase.

“An increase in these acquisitive offence types reflects in part a return to pre-pandemic trends, but also is in line

with current cost of living pressures,” she said.

Victoria Police deputy commissioner of regional operations Neil Paterson said that the statewide increase represented a return to pre-COVID crime levels. “Crime in Victoria has gradually increased over the past few years as Victorian life has returned to normality post pandemic,” he said.

“When population is considered, Victoria pleasingly still has its third lowest crime rate at any point over the past decade – ahead of only 2022 and the COVID-marred 2021. While this is positive, that doesn’t mean there aren’t areas of concern.

“Child offending remains a real challenge for police and significant driver of serious and violent crime in Victoria. Victoria Police continue to hold these people accountable, with youth gang members targeted as part of Operation Alliance and young burglars and car thieves continually arrested and put before the courts under Operation Trinity. These operations have led to over 5000 combined arrests over the past year, with Operation Trinity alone leading to the arrest of almost four burglars and car thieves every day – the vast majority children.

“While police will continue to patrol known hotspots every evening until dawn as part of Trinity, we are also calling on the community to play their part and lock their properties and cars.”

Samira, a Labrador puppy who began attending The Mornington Centre with her owner, Karen Edwards, at only a few months old fell into the role of a wellbeing dog. Through her frequent visits and interactions at The Mornington Centre, Samira also quickly showed that she encompassed the qualities of a guide dog and was selected to become an official breeder. She has recently welcomed a litter of three puppies destined for a role as future guide dogs, enriching the lives of the blind and low vision community. The Mornington Centre organised a facility-wide competition to guess the size, colour, and sex of the puppies. The winner, Charlie Vo (pictured with Samira), a physiotherapist at The Mornington Centre, earned the privilege of naming the puppies Hiro, Hendrix & Huxley. Pictures: Supplied

Thousands use breast cancer facility

A NEW breast cancer imaging suite at Frankston Hospital is expected to see around 3000 patients a year by 2032.

The Peta Murphy Breast Imaging Suite was officially opened by Prime Minister Anthony Albanese in February. The facility is named after the former Dunkley MP, who died from breast cancer in December (“Murphy’s memorial at hospital” The Times 5/2/2024).

The first patient was seen at the facility on 2 February. It is projected to host around 2400 mammograms this year, a number Peninsula Health expects to increase to around 3000 in the next eight years.

Peninsula Health breast care co-ordinator Rhonda Barnes said that breast cancer diagnosis grew by 17 percent on the Mornington Peninsula between 2015 and 2019, and that the new facility would help detect cases.

“It will make a massive difference to patients on the Mornington Peninsula,” Barnes said. “The service is able to provide mammography and breast imaging services to the Peninsula Health community free of charge.

“If we are able to provide care in a timely manner it can alleviate the stress or worries for most patients who receive a diagnosis. In fact, 80 percent of breast cancer patients don’t have any problems in the future.

“We’ve got an excellent team here, and the service is very streamlined. If an abnormality is detected, we can organise breast biopsies within a few days, and if an urgent appointment is required their operation can be completed within two weeks.”

The breast cancer imaging suite is open three days a week. Its hours can be expanded in the future.

Gypsy Songs

PENINSULA Chamber musicians will be joined by soprano Suzanne Shakespeare and mezzo sopranos Juel Riggall and Katrina Waters for a night of Gypsy Passion, 5.30pm-7.30pm at Beleura House, Mornington on Friday 12 April.

Originating in northern India, the Romani people migrated to Europe around the 14th century bringing their musical culture with them. These sounds and styles influenced composers from Bizet and Brahms to Dvorak and Delibes.

The soulful style of these folk melodies, combined with the imagined freedoms of the bohemian lifestyle, inspired operatic characters and cycles of Gypsy Songs.

Oberon’s oldest member hits 100

WESTERN Port Oberon Association

has celebrated the 100th birthday of its oldest member, Duncan Lamont Mackinnon.

Born on a sailing ship, the steel barque Garthsnaid, on 5 December 1923 while it was moored in the Yarra River, Mackinnon is the oldest member of the association, which operates the Victorian Maritime Centre at Crib Point.

To attend school in Port Melbourne he had to row a dingy with his bike aboard across the Yarra and cycle to school.

At the age of 10 his mother took him to Scotland where they lived for three years.

Aged 14 at the start of World War II, Mackinnon’s brother Archie helped him get away to sea as deck boy in the Merchant Navy. He signed on with the UK Blue Star Line on the MV Sydney Star.

The two brothers joined their older brother Donald in the Merchant Navy.

Mackinnon later jumped ship in Sydney and joined the army where, after completing his training, he was transferred on overseas duty. He fought to drive the Japanese out of the islands to Australia's north, including at the battle of Slaters Knoll on Bougainville. During this battle Mackinnon is credited with overpowering a Japanese officer and a sniper, seizing the officer’s sword and the sniper’s rifle. He brought both “souvenirs” back to Australia. The sword and bayonet are in the museum

and the rifle locked away in a safe.

Mackinnon’s brother Donald was killed when his ship MV Melbourne Star was torpedoed.

After the war Mackinnon worked as a storeman for several companies, including General Motors. The company’s warehouse was so big that he

used roller skates to collect parts to be shipped out.

Mackinnon was treasurer for the Merchant Navy War Service League until the league was disbanded.

In 2008 he joined the Victorian Maritime Centre project as a volunteer, eventually becoming secretary.

A CENTURY of memories: Duncan Lamont Mackinnon during World War II in Bougainville; his place of birth, the steel barque Garthsnaid after it was wrecked on Gabo Island; and a board containing letters of congratulation on attaining his 100th birthday, including best wishes from King Charles III and Queen Camilla. Pictures: Supplied

Mackinnon has written a book of his life and was interviewed by the late Dennis Gist on 3RPP talking about his life experiences.

He lives in Hastings with his wife Margo while his son Donald also lives locally.

The term natures gentleman can be

used to describe a person, sometimes overstated, but Mackinnon truly deserves that title.

* Max Bryant was the instigator of the Western Port Oberon Association (1999) which runs the Victorian Maritime Centre at 120 The Esplanade, Crib Point.

Police officer attacked with box cutter

A MAN has been charged for allegedly attacking police with a box cutter in Frankston last month.

At around 6.30pm on 22 March, police attended an address in Foame Avenue believing a stolen white Jeep to be there. They attempted to arrest a man, who then allegedly assaulted them.

The man allegedly slashed one police officer with a box cutter before fleeing in the Jeep. Both police officers were taken to hospital.

Crafts and toy contest at expo

THIS year’s Western Port Craft Expo will include new and longtime exhibitors, including wood turner Alan Poole who first showed his bowls, platters, rustic vases and pens, when the expo was held in the Hastings Uniting Church Hall.

Poole, who has been wood turning for nearly 20 years, said he had wanted to try turning as a young carpenter and joiner, but had to wait until his children were self-sufficient to afford a lathe.

“I started out with a small one, then a bigger one, and then even bigger,” he said. Since moving into a retirement village at Cranbourne he has “retreated” to the smaller equipment.

At this year’s expo he will show a nutcracker bowl turned from a piece of 100-year-old elm. He mainly uses

red gum, walnut and wattle to turn pen cases.

Poole’s Pickawood Turning stand will be in front of the big mirror at The Hub, Frankston-Flinders Road, Hastings.

Three other Cranbourne village residents are exhibiting at the expo with bags, cards, painted garden pots, knitted dolls as well as being accompanied by a bus load of neighbours.

Kat McKee has been part of the Western Port Craft Expo for five years, teaching sewing for eight years as Forever Four at Tyabb.

“Being part of the expo has been a highlight for me, where I get to showcase my passion for sewing and embroidery. It's incredibly rewarding to share my knowledge and skills with others while also inspiring creativity

in my students,” she said.

“Sewing isn't just a hobby for me — it's a way of life, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to help others discover the joy of creating beautiful things with fabric and thread.”

McKee’s daughter Jordyn will help visitors make bead friendship bracelets, popular from the Taylor Swift concerts.

The Saturday 20 April 20 expo at The Hub, Frankston-Flinders Road, Hastings will also include a toy making competition. Toys can be knitted, crocheted, made of fabric or wood. Entries can be for sale or donated to charity. Prizes for the best puzzle, most creative and people’s choice. The judge will be Cr Lisa Dixon.

FRIDAY IF BEALE STREET COULD TALK

ABC TV PLUS, 10.25pm

THURSDAY REBUILDING NOTRE DAME CATHEDRAL PART 2

SBS, 7.30pm

In this documentary, historian Lucy Worsley (pictured), donning a bright red beret and an infectious sense of urgency and passion, escorts viewers on an exclusive trek into Notre-Dame’s painstaking recovery and restoration. It’s her second foray into the intricate, expensive process (there’ll be no change from around A$15 million) as the renovation enters its final stages. It’s a mind-blowing feat of engineering.

In this romantic period drama from Barry Jenkins, Tish and Fonny (KiKi Layne and Stephan James, both pictured) are old friends who become lovers in 1970s Harlem. However, their lives take a turn when Fonny is falsely accused of rape and Tish discovers she is pregnant. Her quest to clear his name is exquisitely and intricately told.

SATURDAY MURDER IN PROVENCE

ABC TV, 7.30pm

This amiable crime comedy is light and airy with a nose for fun. It’s the antithesis to crime shows that concentrate on the dark and disturbing side of murder – if you’re fond of distractions such as Father Brown and Death in Paradise, this beautifully polished crime caper will tickle your fancy. The sublime French terrain and buildings set the tone, with sun and whimsy the overarching focus as chief magistrate Antoine Verlaque (Endeavour’s Roger Allam, pictured) and his glamorous criminal psychologist lover Marine Bonnet (Father Brown’s Nancy Carroll) play detective in the small town of Aix-en-Provence.

SUNDAY VERA

ABC TV, 8.30pm

The beauty of this long-running detective series – returning for its 13th season tonight – lies not just in the Northumberland scenery cultivated with medieval churches and windswept cliffs. It’s the titular detective (Brenda Blethyn, pictured), grumbling and bluntly speaking her mind, who is categorically enchanting. These three new episodes feature an admirably unguessable whodunnit

Startup charges into EV industry

TWO young men from the Mornington Peninsula have made a spectacular entrance into the electric vehicle market, armed with nothing but a bright idea, a modest amount of savings and a lot of faith.

Twenty-four-year olds Toby Batters-Holding and Daniel Henry, who became friends while students at Western Port Secondary College, have launched a mobile EV charging business that has attracted interest from media around the country.

Before taking their idea to the market, Henry, an electrician, and Batters-Holding, a boiler maker, spent 12 months learning about the EV industry.

Although they did not own EVs themselves, they knew enough to see there was a gap in the market when it came to giving EV owners easy access to charging.

“We could see there are not enough charging stations and had heard many stories of car owners being stranded, so we knew there was a need for a charger that comes to you, wherever you are,” Henry said.

The entrepreneurial and hard-working friends poured their life savings into getting two purpose-built mobile charging vehicles and, after just four weeks of operation, are already starting to reap the rewards.

The have now started a subscription service to expand the business and better service clients.

“It’s been crazy, we have had interest from people all over the country and we see potential to provide a service to the fleet industry and the mining industry where EVs are becoming popular,” Henry said. “We are already looking at expanding the fleet … it’s not something we can do just yet, but I see that is where we are heading as we become more established.”

Apart from enthusiasm and a willingness to work hard, the young business owners share an interest in green technology and a cleaner future.

“It’s good to know we are doing something that’s part of the move to a greener car industry,” Henry said.

Parking trial hits business profits

Council has buckled under pressure and introduced some changes to its controversial paid parking trial after receiving a backlash from businesses and drivers.

It is believed the council has introduced a 50 per cent discount for people who pay through the PayStay App, and also recently offered a 24-hour grace period from the date of parking.

But a popular waterside Mornington restaurant which has spearheaded a

LETTERS

petition to the state government is calling for a bigger revamp of the parking trial.

Robert De Santis, who owns The Rocks restaurant and a separate cafe next door, at Schnapper Point, Mornington, claims paid parking is turning away up to one quarter of customers and hurting delivery companies, transport drivers, and patrons.

The parking trial operates under a video number plate recognition system that only allows 15 minutes from entry at the Esplanade to exit before an infringement is sent by mail. This is not stated on any signs and De Santis believes the concept is “fraudulent”

and traps people looking for a spot, doing a commercial delivery, awaiting a takeaway service or assisting a disabled or elderly person.

Mornington MP Chris Crewther, who presented the petition to parliament, said signatories drew attention to the Legislative Assembly that the parking trial started is having “grave negative effects” on small business, local residents, families and visitors.

“Business sale declines of up to 20 per cent, numerous negative reviews, fines and complaints have presented to local councillors, its CEO and relevant shire teams with little response or concern,” Crewther said.

Parks vegetation provided its own protection

There is a small bush reserve between Shire Hall and Mills beaches encircled by a popular walking track.

Recent notices erected advise that the “Friends” are restoring the bush”, which means they are removing introduced species which are not natural such as tea-tree and replacing them with grasses and shrubs.

A further notice advises “Management” requests visitors to stay out of the area to protect the vegetation which, if the area had not been “opened up” in so many places and the scrub had remained dense, there would be no reason to stray off the beaten track.

There is much admiration for residents who volunteer to work on community projects, but I would have preferred they had directed their efforts elsewhere as, to my mind, the area being left to grow wild was far more attractive than it is now.

However, Mornington Peninsula Shire has informed me that the work being undertaken is in accordance with its biodiversity plan, in which

case perhaps an effort could be made to remove the cones and stakes supporting the many plantings which have not survived and the proliferation of loose cones now littering the area and fast becoming an eyesore.

Also, it would be good to see dead foliage removed rather than left to further detract from the attraction of the reserve.

I can’t help wondering if the shire would be better directing residents’ rates to more pressing needs of the peninsula.

Historical work

I recently worked during one weekend as a volunteer for the Mornington Historical Society in the beautiful Old Mornington Post Office at the end of Main Street.

I met some fabulous people, locals and even some young people from France.

It’s a small but interesting site and more volunteers are needed so I encourage people to think about it. I only help out every few months

for an afternoon.

The nine-month paid parking trial has been running since 1 December last year at Schnapper Point, Mornington, Sunnyside Breach, Mount Eliza and near Flinders pier.

Owner of The Rocks restaurant

Robert De Santis said any paid parking scheme should “make it easy” for drivers to get to their preferred destination, as opposed to the “difficulties” facing drivers wanting to park in the three foreshore parking areas.

“In December 2023, we noticed a 23 per cent drop in patronage, and most of them say the parking is too hard,” he said.

“To be clear, I understand being in

And I recently did a clean-up of things from my parents old home, clippings of my dad’s work at BP and Esso and donated these to the organisation. Please think of the society when you do the same – please don’t automatically send things to the tip.

Missing in action

Well, I am totally gob smacked. An opinion poll has the Liberals gaining ground against Labor and I cannot for the life of me see why.

The Liberal and National parties continually hoodwink their respective electorates into believing the Liberals will be good for them. That’s a load of rubbish. They’re good for the wealthy side of the spectrum but, not us, the battlers.

How often do we see the Liberals promise millions of bucks for a project during election time only to shelve it once they’re elected and then trot it out again at the next election or blame the Labor Party for not honouring the liberals promise?

The Jetty Road [Rosebud] overpass is a case in point. Another is the upgrade of Rosebud Hospital promised by [former Liberal leader] Matthew Guy. Now, the Liberals are agitating for Labor to honour a Liberal promise yet again.

We had a good Labor representative for Nepean in Chris Brayne, who was ousted after he

business that revenue is required to maintain expenses, hence the council seeking a revenue stream. Paid parking can work if it is fair, transparent, and accessible, but I don’t feel these three measures are being achieved.”

“The online e-permit process is clunky and the 24 hour grace period for residents with registrations in eligible areas should be three days, like road tolls,” De Santis said.

He suggested “tap and go” options would be easier for drivers.

To sign the petition, go to parliament.vic.gov.au/get-involved/petitions/mornington-peninsula-paidparking-pilot-programme

had done so much. We had a LNP representative prior to Chris who was the state education minister who I believe did nothing for our schools, Moorooduc Primary comes to mind.

I read that the state Liberal leader is being challenged and it was reported that [Nepean MP] Sam [Groth], our state rep. is one of the challengers. Strewth, he’s only been in the job five minutes.

As they used to say in the army, “the ink on your paybook is still wet”.

Nuclear wrong turn

Assuming that nuclear energy will win votes at the next federal election for the Coalition is naive. Electability requires quicker, more effective responses to pressing issues like cost of living, and nuclear is hamstrung by very long lead times.

Meanwhile, we need to keep the lights on, replace aged coal plants and address climate change now and every year ahead, not in two decades time perhaps.

It would be daft in this large sunny, often windy land of ours not to back nimbler renewable energy strategies combined with various forms of energy storage to counter wind and solar intermittency.

SONGS, STORY AND SOUL IN TRADITIONAL LANGUAGES

ARIA-nominated, award-winning singer Emma Donovan will tour to Frankston Arts Centre to share her trademark soul and country songs, and new music recorded in Gumbaynggirr and Noongar languages.

Emma is proud to be one of the First Nations artists spearheading efforts to put traditional languages on the music map.

“I am very proud to introduce new words and share languages with audiences and fans. It’s so important to preserve this part of our history, family and country,” she explains.

“This project will shine a light on Indigenous music culture, sharing stories and preserving language in song. I want to share my story with Australia and the world, and I want audiences to hear my songs and languages to enhance their knowledge of our expansive history of this country.”

Since first appearing on the stage with the renowned family band The Donovans, Emma worked with artists such as Paul Kelly, The Teskey Brothers, Paul Grabowsky, Spinifex Gum and the late Uncle Archie Roach and Aunty Ruby Hunter. She is also known for her work with the highly regarded Melbourne rhythm combo The Putbacks and the extraordinary Black Arm Band project. Joined on stage by Steve Magnusson on guitar and Samuel Anning on double bass, Emma is excited to share her stories with audiences in Frankston and the peninsula.

Squirrel Grip! My Life with Hardcore Hoarders

I’M surrounded. No matter what I do, it is my destiny to be put to shame and generally embarrassed by others who are masters of the art of self-restraint. With the possible exception of my feelings, I am not one for holding back. This is especially so at Easter, where large quantities of substandard chocolate are eliminated by me with the kind of ruthless efficiency that would embarrass a shark. Needless to say, I love Easter.

Growing up, Easter was a pretty magical occasion. The idea of a home invasion by what is (essentially) a gigantic rodent who, instead of making off with the Betamax, deposits chocolate treats beside each bed while the occupant is fast asleep, seemed impossibly thrilling when we were kids, rather than downright creepy. The joy of being young.

It was magical. We’d wake up and find ourselves astonished before leaping out of bed to conduct a quick audit of each family member to ensure that the haul had been distributed equitably. Then it was down to business.

Fittingly, we’d then go down the rabbit-hole as we started to consume chocolate eggs with the laser-like focus of a fighter pilot. With minutes, extreme quantities of sugar transformed us from polite children into manic, raging beasts who were determined to consume a year’s worth of confectionary in a single sitting. By the time we were done, the discarded remnants of ripped foil would litter the living room like metallic confetti. Panting, bloated and feeling slightly ill, we’d each lie back on a beanbag, chocolate drawn

around our lips. All except for my brother, Cameron.

Just as a squirrel will hoard nuts with an eye to leaner times, my brother would keep rather than consume his Easter bounty. Not that he’d make a song and dance about it. He’d sit back and watch as we worked our way into a chocolatey lather before bearing the full brunt of the ill-effects. He’d then shuffle off down to his room with a haul of Easter eggs and hide them. For months. It wasn’t that he wasn’t inter-

ested, it’s that he had an eye for the bigger picture.

Long after we’d forgotten about Easter, Cam would appear in the living room holding an Easter egg. I’ll admit that I may not have reacted especially well. That he had the foresight to preserve rather than consume his easter eggs as though he was competing in a time trial seemed outrageous to me then. It felt unfair. It felt unjust. It felt like I’d been completely outmanoeuvred by my younger brother which, if

NEW WAVE 24 AT MPRG

NEW Wave 24 is an exhibition at Mornington Peninsula Regional Gallery that showcases the works of local VCE and VCE VET art, visual art, media arts, fashion, design and technology students within the Mornington Peninsula Shire. The exhibition includes paintings, drawings, multimedia, ceramics, installation and more by a new generation of young artists. The show offers students the opportunity to participate in a group exhibition in a public gallery and serves as inspiration for other senior students to see the work and ideas of local students.

Also on display at MPRG is New Exuberance, a Jam Factory touring exhibition focusing on contemporary Australian textile design featuring Ikuntji Artists, Iordanes Spyridon Gogos, Grace Lillian Lee and Romance Was Born and more. There is also a solo exhibition of Flinders-based weaver Emma Shepherd’s recent works.

In early May, MPRG is hosting a symposium at Beleura House and Garden, Contemporary Australian Fashion Here & Now. Join industry leaders, curators and designers for a full day of in-depth discussion about Australia’s fashion industry. Speakers include Meryl Ryan, New Exuberance curator, Paola Di Trocchio, a leading fashion curator, writer and speaker, formerly Curator Fashion at the NGV, Nathan McGuire, Director of Mob in Fashion, designer of ready-to-wear men's label SOLID OCHRE and leading First Nations model, and Nixi Killick, New Exuberance exhibiting artist, designer and imagineer. Learn about the history of Australian fashion, First Nations designers’ work and the significance of fashion as an instrument for responsibility, social consciousness and community collaboration.

The MPRG Shop has been carefully curated

with a selection of jewellery, ceramics, art, books and clothing and textiles to celebrate the current exhibitions. The shop is stocking products from The Social Studio, a notfor-profit social enterprise providing work and learning opportunities for Melbourne's refugee and new migrant communities. They also have Bábbarra Designs fabrics, earrings by Lisa Waup X VERNER, wall hangings and cushion covers by weaver Emma Shepherd and upcycled clothing from Mt Martha slow fashion guru Angelia Dixon.

I’m being honest, I had. In retrospect, I can respect that he had an eye for the long game, especially when instant gratification usually resulted in nausea and a headache.

Years later, I’d try to compete. From time to time, I’d send Cameron a picture of my Christmas cake; proud that I had bent my will and managed to preserve the last remnant until April. Without fail, he’d shoot back a photo of his own cake that looked largely, if not entirely, intact. Perhaps foolishly, I didn’t ask when the photo was taken, and simply accepted that, once again, I had been bested. I learned my lesson – it’s futile to try and out-squirrel and champion squirreler (not really a word, but it should be).

Now things have come full circle. Or to be more accurate, full squirrel as, once again, I find myself in the company of squirrelers. My partner, Katrina, has two sons – Ryan and Conor – who remind me a lot of my brother. They are very good at squirreling things away. They’re both at Uni and take a backpack almost everywhere they go. Much like Batman’s utility belt, those backpacks contain pretty much everything you could ever want or need.

It's common for one of them to ask during dinner whether there’s any soft drink. If the answer is ‘no’, they simply reach into their backpacks and produce a bottle of soft drink they’ve been saving for just such an occasion. If the subject had been loungeroom furniture, I wouldn’t be at all surprised if one of them reached in a pulled out a three-piece settee. I’m left to feel constantly behind the eight ball. I’d

tell them this, but one of them would probably reach into his backpack and produce an eight ball.

As Easter approached, I faced the prospect of being embarrassed by my propensity to hoover up any easter eggs that came my way, as Conor and Ryan took a far more cautious approach. I had hoped that time and maturity would result in a greater restraint on my part. It hasn’t. The boys will likely look on with disappointment as I plunge face first into a sea of chocolate eggs without even using my hands. Sigh.

On Easter Sunday, we visited my brother and his family. Melissa, his wife, makes the most amazing Easter Sunday dinner and it is, without fail, one of my favourite events of the year. The food is amazing. It is not an event where squirrelling of any kind should be contemplated. But as the different disparate threads of my life come together over trays of lasagna and meat balls, it makes me wonder if they know how much they have in common or, indeed, how much influence they’ve had over me.

I love Easter. Not just the eggs or sugary haze, but in the opportunity to stop, be thankful and spend time with those who mean the most to you.

Whilst we’re at my brother’s house, I can imagine him disappearing for a moment before re-emerging with an easter egg. The foil will be chipped and the structure ever so slightly compromised. ‘From 1987,’ he’ll say. ‘I’m saving it.’ Once a squirreler, always a squirreler. Long may it continue. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

That “Jolly” fence causes litigation

Compiled by

AT the Frankston Court yesterday, before Mr. W. G. Smith, P.M.; and Messrs. C. Gray, P. Wheeler, and J. Brown, J.’sP., Miss Irene Galt sought an order from the Court to compel J. B. Jolly to erect a six foot paling fence between their respective properties on Melbourne Road, Frankston.

Mr. Robertson appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. J. Hogan for Mr. Jolly.

Irene Galt said she was the owner and occupier of property on Melbourne Road, Frankston. Mr. Jolly occupied the property on the north side of her place.

The properties at present were divided by a fence of posts and three wires, with scraggly bits of hedge.

Two years ago she spoke to Mr. Jolly, and he agreed that a fence was necessary. She obtained an estimate as to cost of a new fence, but Jolly then said that the existing fence was adequate.

Witness considered the fence was inadequate. Anything could get through it, and she was unable to keep a garden owing to Jolly’s fowls invading her property.

Witness suggested the erection of a paling fence.

To Mr. Hogan – My complaint as to present fence was not only that it allowed poultry to get into my property, but also as to lack of privacy.

She knew that Jolly kept his poultry in wire-netted yards, but these enclosures were no good when the gates were open. I want a fence that will keep my bulldog in and other dogs out. My bulldog is not on the chain.

The P.M. – I wonder that Jolly has any poultry left. (Laughter.)

Witness, in reply to further questions by Mr. Hogan, said the depth of the sideline between the properties was about 300ft. She considered that the windows of Jolly’s house would be more than 3ft. from the boundary fence.

Witness never advised Jolly to sell some time ago, because she was going to darken the windows of his house. Witness had conducted a picture show on her property. She did not consider she was called on to say whether she was going to continue the picture show.

This closed the plaintiff’s case.

Mr. Hogan argued that under Section 8 of the Fences Act it would be sufficient for his client to show that he had provided the kind of fence usually erected in the locality. If it was shown that the fence was out of repair he was willing to replace it.

James B. Jolly said he was the owner and occupier of the property adjoining Miss Galt, in Melbourne Road, Frankston.

The present fence consisted of solid posts and four wires, and the front portion was covered by a good ti-tree hedge. The fence was paid for by the original owner of the property.

It was in good order, except that the wires had recently been cut by Mr. Robertson.

Did you see them cut?

Witness. – No; but I can produce someone who did. Witness said he valued his house and property at £2000. If a 6ft paling fence was erected as proposed it would damage his property to the extent of £300 or

£400. The fence would darken the windows, which were only 2ft in from the side line.

The poultry referred to were enclosed in wire pens 6ft. high. He merely went in for poultry as a hobby, and intended get ting rid of his poultry at Easter.

To Mr. Robertson. – When Miss Galt gave me notice to fence I told her the existing fence complied with the Act.

The P.M.– Do you consider a wire fence suitable?

Witness. – I do.

Witness said he did not like the idea of being cooped up in a yard. Frankston had been referred to as a suburb, but he liked to think of it as the country, with fine open spaces.

Senior–Constable Culhane said he knew the properties in question. He inspected the fence referred to, and considered it to be in good order.

There was only one paling fence in the locality, all the others were ti-tree hedges.

To Mr. Robertson. – The hedge fence between Jolly’s and Galt’s ex tended from the frontage of the properties for a distance of 30 or 40ft down the side line. It was a nice hedge. For the remainder of the distance on the side boundaries the fence consisted of posts and four wires, with the hedge growing in places.

At this stage the Bench decided to inspect the properties. On returning to the Court, the P.M. said:

“We have seen the properties, and we discussed the matter. As usual, a difficulty arises in being sufficiently specific as to the order that might be made. The conclusion arrived at is

that the ti-tree hedge is a sufficient fence. It would be a pity to remove it.

As to the other portion, we think some fence should be erected, and suggest a paling fence 5ft high.

Mr. Hogan.– My client is prepared to agree to a paling fence from the rear of his house to the back boundary.

Mr. Robertson.– But the front hedge is not fowl or dog proof.

The P.M. – Can’t we leave that to the intelligence of the parties?

Mr. Robertson. – My client wants a fence that will keep the bulldog in.

The P.M.– Perhaps Mr. Jolly would make a fence that is bulldog proof.

(Laughter.)

By agreement it was decided that no order of the Court be made, and that the case be adjourned for eight weeks, the parties in the meantime to provide the fence, as suggested by the Court, both parties to pay half cost.

Mr. Robertson asked for costs.

Mr. Hogan objected. He, on behalf of his client had tried to meet the other side without coming to Court.

Mr. Robertson was not the original solicitor in the case, and knew nothing of this.

The Bench ordered that each party pay their own costs.

***

WHEN the Frankston Park Committee decided to lay the agricultural pipes in the oval at the Frankston Park, under the supervision of the Shire Engineer (Lieut.–Colonel Lazarus), quite a number of persons declared “that they would serve no purpose.”

How far this has proved correct or not has been demonstrated by the

results of the recent heavy rains, for while most other flat and low-lying country has been practically under water, the oval of the park, with the drains running at full pressure, has been passable the whole time.

This should certainly be a sufficient test to justify the action of the committee in doing this work, and whilst much remains to be done in connection with the park improvement scheme, it is only right that an expression of appreciation should be forthcoming when it is justified.

In this case we believe that credit is due to the committee, to its officer, and also to the contractor who did the work. We, therefore, tender our need of praise to those responsible for this good work, and trust that many other improvements equally necessary will, at no distant date, be given effect to.

AFTER a prolonged absence of one year and eight months, Mr. C. G. V. Williams, of Frankston, intends sailing from England for Australia on September 12 next. He is expected to arrive about the 25th October.

Mr. and Mrs. Williams have been touring England, Scotland, and Wales, and are at present in the South of France.

MR. McCarthy, of the Bay View Hotel, went to Melbourne yesterday to place himself under the care of a specialist. It is feared that Mr. McCarthy may have to undergo an operation for appendicitis.

Dromana continue reign, Yabbies down Demons

MPNFL

DIVISION ONE

FOOTY kicked off on Good Friday with reigning premiers, Dromana, heading to Red Hill.

Red Hill ended the 2023 season in seventh place, so looked to be no challenge for the Tigers, but came out blazing in the first quarter.

Red Hill kicked 4.1 to just three points by Dromana to take a 22-point lead into quarter time.

It was wake up time for Dromana, and they came out firing in the second quarter slotting five majors and keeping Red Hill to a solitary goal, slipping to a three-point lead at the main break.

It was the same again for the third quarter; five goals to one, and Dromana had found their stride and extended their lead to 27-points by three quarter time.

In a closer final quarter, Red Hill held their own, but could not prevent Dromana running further ahead with the reigning premiers winning by a comfortable 25 points, the final scores 8.4 (52) to 13.9 (87).

Sorrento headed to Rosebud on Easter Saturday in a match up between teams that finished sixth and eighth respectively last year.

Both teams have been spending time in the finals wilderness the last couple of years and were keen to get 2024 off to a solid start.

It was neck and neck for the first quarter with Sorrento managing to get four points ahead by the first break 4.3 to 3.5.

In the second quarter, Sorrento were a different team, kicking the next five majors and leaving Rosebud to a single goal for the quarter. They went into the long break with an impressive 34-point lead.

The third quarter was Rosebud’s turn, slotting in four goals to Sorrento’s single major, but they couldn’t quite peg back the Shark’s lead, and still trailed the visitors by 14 points at three quarter time.

In the final quarter, Sorrento went

on a scoring frenzy, kicking 8.5 for the term, and kicking well away from Rosebud, finishing the day with a 49-point win. The final scores 11.13 (79) to 19.14 (128).

It was a stand-out day for Sorrento’s Bailey Holt who kicked six goals for his side, while Kirk Dickson kicked five for Rosebud. The remainder of the round one games will be held next week.

DIVISION TWO

DIVISION Two kicked off the season with two Good Friday games in a split

round one.

Chelsea headed to Edithvale-Aspendale for their opening match. Both teams had ten wins last year, so it looked like a close game on paper, and it turned out that way.

Chelsea went into quarter time with a slender single-point lead after a slow start on the scoreboard for both teams, with just two majors apiece.

Chelsea managed to pull a goal ahead by the main break to take a fivepoint lead into the main break.

The visitors started hitting the scoreboard in the third, but inaccuracy cost them what should have been a much

bigger lead. They kicked 5.10 for the quarter, an impressive 15 scoring shots, but with Edi-Asp’s 5.2, Chelsea went into three-quarter time with only a 13-point lead and lamenting a missed opportunity.

The accuracy in front was a bit better in the final quarter, and Edi-Asp couldn’t claw the visitors back, Chelsea running out 21-point victors for the day, the final scores 14.11 (95) to 16.20 (116).

After a terrible 2023, Rye had something to prove against Tyabb in their first game. Tyabb has had a lean few years but nothing like Rye who re-

mained winless in 2023.

But it was another disappointment for the Demons, who couldn’t match Tyabb from the first bounce.

The visitors took a 20-point lead into the first quarter and extended it out to 36 points at the main break.

Rye showed some resistance in the third, slotting a couple and keeping Tyabb to a single major for the term, but in the final quarter, Tyabb booted 3.5 to Rye’s solitary point, to run out comfortable 52-point winners. The final tally being 5.7 (37) to 12.17 (89).

Only Langy, Skye left in Cup

SOCCER

LANGWARRIN and Skye United are the only two local clubs remaining in the 2024 Dockerty Cup after last week’s fourth preliminary round.

Both Peninsula Strikers and Chelsea have been knocked out of the competition which doubles as Victoria’s qualification tournament for the Australia Cup.

Skye’s fate will be known soon as it plays its round four tie against Dandenong Thunder on Wednesday 10 April.

Langwarrin, Strikers and Chelsea all used their Cup ties to give full senior debuts to a host of young players.

Langy defeated Doveton 3-1 at Lawton Park last Thursday night in a home tie for the Doves who agreed to switch the venue.

Jacob Brito put Langwarrin ahead after four minutes when he cut inside from the right then played a one-two with Juan Ramos before going past a defender and striking a low shot into the bottom corner from inside the area.

Langy controlled the contest with goalkeeper Griffen Bambach stopping any threats from Doveton and the Lawton Park outfit went further ahead in the 35th minute when Brito’s corner to the near post was headed home by Kameel Khan.

But Doveton hit back right on halftime when a bad back pass to Bambach was intercepted and Luka Slavica made it 2-1.

In the 63rd minute Brito was brought down inside the box and a penalty awarded.

With regular penalty taker Tom Youngs not playing Brito took the attempted conversion only for Doveton keeper Tom Avdoulos to effect a fine save.

But six minutes later Rahul Suresh gave Langy a two-goal cushion which proved too much for Doveton.

The average age of Langwarrin’s back four was 19 and two of the club’s under-18s came on as substitutes in the second half.

Peninsula Strikers went down 1-0 to East Bentleigh at Centenary Park on Saturday.

East Bentleigh was relegated to State 5 East last season but an influx of players from Chisholm United has made it one of the promotion favourites this season.

And the visitors confronted the youngest senior team ever fielded by Strikers’ head coach Scott Morrison with an average age of just 20.

Strikers’ Noah Musso had the first good chance of the contest when

through on goal but he could only get a faint touch on the ball with East Bentleigh keeper Dylan Clifford well off his line.

In the 21st minute pacy Strikers winger Campbell Steedman robbed Athanasios Panagiotou only to shoot wide.

Nine minutes later East Bentleigh struck the decisive blow.

Central striker Juho Kim and winger Josh Oresti had pace to burn for the visitors and the latter peeled off opponent Jordy May before taking a touch then drilling a well-struck low shot across Strikers’ keeper Nathan Brown and inside the far post.

In the 35th minute Musso jinked past two defenders only to have his shot blocked and seconds later a Steedman cross from the left was marginally behind Riley Anderton who could have had a tap-in.

Musso, Steedman and Anderton had further chances in the second half but couldn’t convert while the visitors also missed a couple of good opportunities to put the contest out of Strikers’ reach.

After the match Morrison was keen to highlight the positives.

“The result wasn’t what we wanted and at times the way we played was disappointing but we still created a lot

Sudoku and crossword solutions

and had enough chances to win comfortably,” he said.

“But it was positive in terms of the club as we had numerous boys who made their senior debuts and we got minutes into guys such as Jaiden (Madafferi) which is important.

“We had six boys who have been in the reserves start the game and a 17and 18-year-old.

“We’re in a pretty good situation where we’ve got experienced players like ‘Buzza’ (Wayne Gordon), Stevie (Elliott) and ‘Macca’ (Andy McIntyre) who can teach these guys and keep driving them at training and that can really help them a lot.”

Chelsea lost 5-1 away to NPL club Moreland City last Thursday night.

The scoreline doesn’t tell the tale of the local club’s performance against a side that plays six leagues higher.

Chelsea opened the scoring after 23 minutes when star striker James Stinson was brought down inside the area following a long ball downfield from Chelsea keeper Rhys Davies.

Stinson converted from the spot and the minnows from State 4 led 1-0.

But Moreland levelled after a contentious penalty decision converted by Apai Ukuno and in the last minute of the half Michael Tzoutzidis scored to give a relieved home side a 2-1 lead

at the break. This Cup tie was still up for grabs during the second half when Moreland made five substitutions bringing on some first team players and it eventually overran the visitors scoring three times in the last 15 minutes.

“Don’t take the score for granted because they were a wee bit worried for periods in the game and at the end I was happy with our performance and so were our players,” Chelsea gaffer Gus Macleod said.

In other news the grandstand at Centenary Park is set for a major upgrade.

Peninsula Strikers president Adrian Scialpi confirmed that the outer area will be fenced off on Monday 8 April and requests for quotes are due back to Frankston council by 20 April.

Work on what will be a two-stage project is expected to start during May and finish just before the season’s end.

“The grandstand will be similar to what it is now in height and depth but we’re looking to have internal cladding and filling in the sides to give added protection from the weather,” Scialpi said.

“Stage 2 of the development will be new tiered seating that will be a lot higher than the current seating and council has indicated that it will be individual seating in our club colours.”
