SUNSHINE Coast Council recently hosted its annual citizen of the year awards for those Mayor Cr Mark Jamieson describes as our everyday heroes. See coverage on pages 4-5.

Not surprisingly, quite a few of those recognised by these awards work with or are connected to the many wonderful local community groups in our towns.

Well, it isn’t surprising to me and it made me smile to know that nearly all of the everyday heroes we have showcased in this week’s edition have regularly featured on our pages. Quite a few of them have donned our front cover, including our last edition.

These days we live in a digital/ social media world filled with people who are called influencers or brand

Tourist drive tree clearing explained SINCE before Christmas, vegetation along the railway line side of Steve Irwin Way from Beerwah to Landsborough has been progressively cleared.

For a distance of about 20m o the roadside, all the trees and shrubs have been felled and mulched in an operation that has locals asking â€œâ€Ś what is it all about?â€?

The Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR) has conďŹ rmed that the work is the start of the previously announced $18 million project aimed to improve safety along Steve Irwin Way. When announced last October, the funding, which is part of a $415 million state and federal economic stimulus program, was to improve road safety on Steve Irwin Way from Beerburrum to Palmview, with Beerwah to Landsborough given priority.

A TMR spokesperson said this section of Steve Irwin Way had experienced increased traic growth over the years and this project aimed to reduce the potential for head-on, rear-end and run-o crashes. “We appreciate the patience of residents, businesses and motorists during the works. Vegetation clearing

is being undertaken to make it easier for project contractors to start main construction later this year,â€? the spokesperson said. “The western roadside was cleared as the reserve is wider, allowing the proposed widening to occur on this side to accommodate the wide centre line treatment, wider shoulders, intersection modiďŹ cations and an appropriate clear zone.â€?

The cleared vegetation has generally been mulched and spread on site to assist with weed maintenance, with some larger logs given to Australia Zoo. According to TMR, key features of the safety improvement will include: • Road widening from north of Foley Road, Beerwah to Mellum Creek Bridge, Landsborough. • Installing a wide centre line to provide additional separation between vehicles travelling in opposite directions. • Shoulder widening. • Installing dedicated right-turn lanes between the Irwin Road and Isambert Road intersections, where not already installed. • Extending and replacing culverts.

• Safety barrier installations at identiďŹ ed locations. “We will continue to speak with stakeholders as the project progresses,â€? the spokesperson said.

Thanks to our everyday heroes AT a special ceremony on January 22, attended by more than 250 dignitaries, nominees and their guests at the Events Centre Caloundra, Sunshine Coast Mayor Mark Jamieson said the annual Sunshine Coast Australia Day Awards highlighted the outstanding work of so many community-focussed citizens and organisations.

“2020 was a year that will never be forgotten for so many reasons but particularly because we saw our residents come together to support each other like never before,” Mr Jamieson said.

“The nominees for the Sunshine Coast Australia Day Awards are a very special group and this is our chance to say thank you. “Their stories highlight just how fortunate we are to have so many everyday heroes amongst us. All of our award recipients and nominees are truly deserving of these accolades.”

In the hotly contested category of Senior Citizen of the Year with 21 amazing nominees, the winner was Division 5 resident Carmel Crouch of Woombye.

Carmel’s dedication to providing opportunities for people with a disability began more than 45 years ago when she adopted a son with disabilities.

As he grew up Carmel felt compelled to create opportunities for him just like the ones her other two children (who did not have disabilities) had the chance to experience. Carmel took a leading role to develop supported training and employment programs.

The organisation STEPS Group Australia was born and Carmel has been a key driver in her voluntary role as chair and president for 33 years.

Through her tireless work Carmel has garnered the support of local business that have donated to the development of classrooms, living facilities and educational programs, and have helped to create a brighter future for people with a disability.

Councillor Rick Baberowski acknowledged the efforts of two other very deserving Senior Citizen of the Year nominees from his division - Kevin Wrayford and David Gower.

Carmel Crouch

Pat Habner

Peachester Rural Fire Brigade (PRFB) officer Kevin Wrayford has been an active member of the brigade as well as a member of the Peachester Hall Committee, Peachester History Committee, Beerwah Charity Sports Day Committee, Peachester Neighbourhood Watch and Hinterland Live Music Club.

Under Kevin’s stewardship the PRFB has grown to be a well-trained, well-equipped unit.

David Gower is also an active rural firie, joining the Glass House brigade in 1994. He is a respected officer, leader and mentor of all members. His level of knowledge is shared with other members at every opportunity, passing on the reins to the next generation.

Pat Habner, chairperson for the Blackall Range Care Group, was heavily involved with the CEO and the management team to navigate through the wide range of issues that arose throughout 2020. Pat went beyond the boundaries of chairperson by giving unprecedented support to all across the Range Care operations and to the board.

Former Beerwah High School student Laree-Anne Gadenne, who featured on the cover of GC&M News on January 20, was a nominee in both the Citizen of the Year and Creative Award categories.

Laree won several medals in dance and acting at the 2013 World Championships of Performing Arts held in Los Angeles. Since then she has travelled the world and landed supporting roles in films in London and a dance scholarship in Los Angeles at the prestigious Millennium Dance Academy.

She came back to the Sunshine Coast with her passion and skills in her crafts to help others. She has written, directed, produced and acted in a sitcom that has now taken to the world stage promoting the beauty of the Sunshine Coast and local actors, sound

engineers, video photographers and musicians. Laree has started three business platforms that create work on all levels.

Current Beerwah High student Poppy Ives was a finalist in the awards for both Environment and Sustainability and the Young Citizen of the Year.

Poppy was inspired by the work of the Tangaroa Blue Foundation to form her own monthly beach clean-up in 2017. Calling the group Visionary Ocean Warriors, Poppy’s focus was removing marine debris and protecting endangered marine life.

Since the group’s inception, Poppy has shown commitment to the cause by monitoring the Golden Beach site each month, engaging volunteers and sorting the debris into the Australian Marine Debris Initiative.

Poppy has entered 11,000 pieces of rubbish, totalling 183kg, into the database over the past three years.

Poppy also spreads the message of refusing single use plastic. She has hand printed ‘plastic free sea’ t-shirts with her own design, using money from the sales to fundraise for Tangaroa Blue.

Debut EP for Beerwah musician

By Sonia Isaacs Clark WITH a distinctive sound that draws on multiple musical influences and styles, Beerwah musician Julian Munyard is keen to share his creative capacity with the world.

Recently graduating from Glasshouse Christian College, the 17 year old has already notched up an impressive performance presence busking and playing at venues across the Sunshine Coast since the age of 10.

He recently released his debut EP ‘Talk in Pictures’ and is now planning to spend his gap year concentrating on his music and pursuing gig opportunities, both as a solo artist and part of the duo Julian and Bakani with long-term school friend and fellow busker Bakani Kombani.

Julian said his introduction to playing live kicked off at a relatively young age when he was encouraged to play guitar and sing at the local gigs put on by the Glasshouse Muso’s Club.

Julian credits the musical mentorship of older local musicians, such as John Brown and Michael Whiticker, who supported his aspirations.

Around this time Julian also started to busk regularly at Mooloolaba, building up a small following with his consistent presence.

“Every weekend on Friday and Saturday nights my dad would drive me over to Mooloolaba Esplanade to set up, and I’d pull out my guitar around 6pm and busk for a couple of hours each week,” Julian said.

“I think because I was so young the cute factor really worked initially. After my mate from school Bakani

joined me when he was 12, this became our regular busking stomping ground until we were around 16.”

After four years of busking together at Mooloolaba the duo were keen to explore other opportunities and Julian started to door knock local restaurants, bars and cafés to get gigs and transition his focus to performing in venues and at events.

“Regular busking for so many years was a great way to build my confidence and develop my live performance and musicianship skills,” he said.

They focussed on covers but Julian also developed the confidence to write some of his own material.

Julian said he started working on his EP in October 2019 at his small home-based studio, which was basically a desk in his room surrounded by his guitar, keyboard and computer.

Initially he had spent time penning and working on a track ‘Treasure Chest’, which, once completed, inspired him to keep working on creating other songs.

By May 2020, Julian had written, recorded and produced six songs to be released on his EP. At this point he decided to step it up and have it professionally produced.

He sent it off to Sydney to be mixed and mastered with the final product ready for release at the end of last year.

Describing his sound as a mix of styles including indie rock, new wave, alternative and laidback surf rock with the occasional nod to jazz and soul, Julian said he has been influenced by artists like David Bowie, Mac De Marco, and Sticky Fingers.

His new release showcases his versatility as an

Yes No Why?

branch to remain open.

The information and survey below has been provided by Mark.

TO all readers in the Glasshouse Country and Blackall Range regions. We need your participation in order to ask for a change of decision by the ANZ not to close its Beerwah branch.

Due to the ANZ’s diminished approach to banking services, and in view of ANZ’s increasing reliance on digital platforms and lack of perceived (and actual) interest of the general public in using the branch in Beerwah, ANZ has decided to close our branch in late February.

Although it must be said that they have confirmed that the smart ATM will remain somewhere in Beerwah.

Whilst ANZ has cited the above reasons for closing the branch, it has also said that the branch has been unprofitable for many years.

We, as a community, should support local businesses in order to maintain their physical presence, as this brings stability and provides the services that we need.

So, in order to help facilitate a hopeful change of decision by the ANZ to not close this branch, I am inviting your participation in the following survey so that we can provide feedback to ANZ regarding practical aspects of why the branch should remain as part of our community.

Please fill out the survey, cut it out and post it back to: ANZ Survey, Replied Paid 87870, Beerwah, 4519. Or complete the survey online at https://forms.gle/RchB4K8W211pvZQe6

YOU can now order your favourite takeaway food from one super accessible and convenient location.

Sunni’s Spot Burgers has relocated into the same shop as Sun’s Chinese Takeaway on Simpson Street, Beerwah.

Open seven days a week, Sunni’s Spot has proved popular with locals with a burger menu that gives customers great value, food that is filling and, judging by local reviews, extremely tasty!

Owner Simon Suen said that since relocating Sunni’s Spot in December from its previous premises to make way for the new Maleny Independent School, he felt customers were pleased with the opportunity to order their favourite takeaway options from the one counter.

BEERWAH PICTURE FRAMING Picture framing by appointment 3 Bridget Court, Beerwah

MOBILE 0407 678 520

Custom picture framing is a term that is often misunderstood. Fitting a picture to a store bought frame has limitations in that frame and mat colours and size are predetermined whereas a custom framer works to the size and style of the art. A custom picture framer uses best quality materials to enhance the presentation of art and its longevity. Seb Messina works with you to select the ultimate design to bring out the best look for your art.

“We’re easy to find, right next to the Beerwah Paint Place on Simpson Street, and customers can still take their pick of their favourite burger and chips with their full Chinese takeaway from this one shop,” Simon said.

If you’re feeling hungry, order one of the burger combos (large burger, chips and can of soft drink for just $4) and add a side of spring rolls, fried rice or fried chicken. While the location may have changed the burgers, meal deals and prices are the same.

For more details call 5494 0880. The takeaway outlet is open Monday from 4-8.30pm, and Tuesday-Sunday from 10.30am-8.30pm. 28 Simpson Street, Beerwah.

New face at Club Glass House CLUB Glass House recently welcomed Geoff Martin as the new secretary/manager at the popular Glass House Mountains community club.

With more than 40 years of experience in the hospitality industry and 14 years of management expertise under his belt, Geoff said he was drawn to the position for numerous reasons. However, one of the key considerations was the genuine friendliness of the club members and staff, which was immediately apparent as soon as he walked through the doors.

“When I saw this position advertised it seemed a perfect way to be closer to my family, who are based here on the Sunshine Coast, and to be involved in a unique and friendly club that had a really great feel about it, and that was ready to move to the next level of operation,” Geoff said.

His most recent positions included management roles at the Yamba Golf Club and Club Lennox located at Lennox Heads, which he helped to successfully reopen after a period of closure.

Geoff said that before relocating to the Sunshine Coast he had actually retired, spending two years travelling before travel options became limited.

“Honestly, I got bored sitting around at home and decided to see what industry opportunities were out there again. I’m looking forward to taking what we do well here at the club and doing more of it,” Geoff said.

With this in mind, immediate plans include looking at ways to improve the dining experience by building on the club’s reputation for good quality food, improving the bar facilities and extending dining capacity.

Geoff said he was excited about joining Club Glass House and was looking forward to the challenges ahead and getting to know the members and community.

Club Glass House is located at 10 Coonowrin Road, Glass House Mountains and is open WednesdaySunday. For more details call 5436 5000.

New premises for All About Autism LANDSBOROUGH-BASED education and support service All About Autism (AAA) featured in GC&M News last year when it was trying to find permanent premises after five years of operation.

Just before our last edition in 2020 went to print, AAA director and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) teacher Lizzie Vaughan told us she was excited to advise the business would be taking over the historic bank building in Cribb Street Landsborough at the beginning of February.

We caught up with Lizzie to find out more.

Q: Give us a brief update of how this came about?

We’ve been on the hunt for a year trying to find a suitable premises to keep us in the Glasshouse Country area.

Every tip off I had was followed up and - finally - we managed to find that the old bank building, which has been used as the site office for the Cribb Street upgrade, would be vacant by the start of 2021. With the fenced outdoor space out the back and the quirky interior with a homely feel, we knew it would be perfect for our next step.

Q: Your application is currently being finalised with Sunshine Coast Council.

As an historic building did you have to meet additional requirements?

Luckily, we are making no changes to the interior or exterior of the building,

so we are keeping all its historical character intact. We are working closely with the council to make sure the heritage space is protected and that everything is handled correctly to allow us to operate for the benefit of the kids and the local community.

Q: How many classes will you be able to offer from the building and what do you love about securing this site for AAA? We will be able to have three sessions running simultaneously, with each group having four children maximum. It is going to be fantastic to be able to cater for 12 children a day, running Monday to Friday. As well as our learning and therapy spaces, we will have dedicated sensory and play spaces, as well as our fully fenced outside play area, which is so essential in teaching social skills and how to navigate the playground successfully for their transition back to school.

Having permanent premises means we can offer a secure and consistent space, specially designed for the benefit of the kids. This will include chill out spaces, visuals and an organised space for optimal learning. We will be able to have our team working together in the one space and still be able to support the local Landsborough community. We will also have a base for workshops and information sessions later down the track.

BENEFITS OF USING YOUR LOCAL ���������������������������������� ������������������������������������ ��������������������������

Q: Tell us about some of the local support you have received?

One of the reasons why I have been keen to stay in the local community is because of all the fantastic support I have received.

The team at Morris House have been fantastic since we started using the CWA Hall in 2015, as well as the Girl Guides Boomjarril space. Jenny Broderick from Glasshouse Country Chamber of Commerce has been so supportive, as well as Judy Tomlinson from Celebrate Glasshouse, who has been on the lookout for us too. It has been a real local effort for us to get to this point and we are so excited to move forward with it thanks to everyone’s help.

COMMUNITY

Landsborough free pantry INSPIRED by the idea of a free neighbourhood pantry service to assist others in need, Landsborough resident Shirley King decided to open one of her own outside her house.

Shirley said she had seen the success of other free pantry services around the Sunshine Coast, including ones at Wurtulla, Sippy Downs and Maleny, and thought a similar setup would be of great benefit for the local community.

She said it would be available 24/7 for anyone in the community who might require additional food or items to get by.

“Previously I have helped out at Morris House Neighbourhood Centre and noticed that people in the area were needing food vouchers and assistance,” Shirley said. “Also, through my involvement with a local group that assists with housing options for women over 55, I know a lot of people were doing it tough.

“I thought if I could offer some extra help for people in need to come by and grab what they required without feeling embarrassed that would be good. I’ve been a single mum and know what it can be like to struggle to feed your family.”

Shirley said that since launching the initiative and putting the call out for donations she had a generous community response, with the pantry now packed with non-perishable foods and other items such as packet food, pastas, UHT milks and toiletries waiting for those who need it to come by and take items anytime.

The bottom section holds books and DVDs, and Shirley is happy to take any new unwanted gifts to help brighten someone’s day.

Volunteering proven to boost wellbeing

Free pantry and library at Landsborough She is also on the lookout for any art students or local artists willing to help paint the outside of the pantry to make it look more appealing.

After making initial enquires to Sunshine Coast Council about her idea, Shirley spoke with her neighbours and feels confident that she has addressed any potential safety concerns.

To ensure the pantry is weatherproof Shirley has made it from an old fridge with shelves that have been glued in. She has put temporary measures in place to help stablise it.

Wurtulla Free Pantry saw her Facebook post about the venture and offered assistance for a handyman to come and help secure the fridge, which Shirley is looking into.

The free pantry and library is located at 21a Toorbul Street, Landsborough. To find out more visit www.facebook.com/Free-PantryLandsborough-102983385119657

GO FOR gold

Cause you know you want to!!

Come and join us for a fun-filled 45minutes!

HAVE you been thinking of ways you can contribute to our local community in 2021? One opportunity is at the Bankfoot House Heritage Precinct in the Glass House Mountains where weekend visitor experience guides are needed.

Sunshine Coast Council’s cultural heritage coordinator Peter Connell said volunteers didn’t need any specific skills, just an interest in history and people.

“We give full on-the-job training, so just a desire to learn, enthusiasm and the ability to engage with others is all potential volunteers need,” Peter said.

“We receive applications from university or TAFE students looking to further their careers or research studies, retirees wanting to connect with and help the community, and those with a passion for heritage.

“Volunteers become part of an amazing network and receive free workshops, annual bus trips and many other opportunities to learn and participate in our heritage.”

Volunteers can choose from one of the many exciting roles in museums and heritage sites on the Sunshine Coast including event assistant, tour guide, education program guide, researcher, collections care assistant and data entry assistant.

Volunteers at Bankfoot House can expect to do a weekend shift at least once a month.

To become a volunteer at Bankfoot House or for more information, email cultural heritage services at culturalheritage@sunshinecoast.qld.gov.au or phone 5420 8600.

HI THERE Zumba Gold is a little different to normal “flat-out” Zumba. As most of us mature in age, it does not mean that we do not want to keep active! Do not be mis-led into thinking that in a Zumba Gold class you will not sweat! You will!

As a slightly more mature age woman, I have designed these classes around a solid workout, looking after the joints, (which is what Zumba Gold is all about), and fun! As a direct result of classes I have attended in the past, too often I look around the room, and instead of people actually enjoying the class, they have a worried look on their face, trying to get the steps right!

My classes are unique in the fact that I (the qualified instructor!) will make mistakes at times, and I make no apology for this!

Hey, if you go home with a smile on your face, and you have had a giggle with me, my mission for this class has been accomplished! Considering the downturn our world has suffered in recent times, I do believe we need to laugh and have fun more!

Time for singles to mingle

Nominations open for community awards

MALENY Lane, along with Cupid’s representative Debs Swain, will host regular singles nights for over 40s on the third Saturday of the month from 6–9.30pm, starting on February 20.

Debs hopes to create a safe environment for over 40s singles to meet new friends and mingle each month in a singles club-like environment on their own or with other single friends.

Maleny Lane is a small rustic food alley filled with delicious gourmet street food from around the world right in the heart of the main street of Maleny.

Each month will be themed or have a different flavour with live music, icebreaker games, introductions, speed dating nights and prizes.

Drinks are available or you can BYO. Tickets are $10 at the door.

PUBLIC nominations are now open for the Fisher Community Awards organised by the federal Member for Fisher Andrew Wallace.

This year’s double awards ceremony will recognise winners from 2019/20 as well as the past year following the cancellation of the 2020 awards ceremony.

Mr Wallace said the awards this year would recognise organisations and individuals who have made a difference through the COVID-19 pandemic in the fields of education, employment and retirement.

“Over the past 12 months we have needed the resilience, the compassion and the energy of our volunteers and community leaders more than ever,” he said.

Nominations in each of nine categories can be made by members of the public at www.andrewwallacemp. com.au/awards until Friday, February 26.

The winners in each category will be selected from the public’s nominations by representatives of the Fisher Youth Council, Business Council and Seniors Council, which are consultation groups drawn from local residents and set up by Mr Wallace.

Winners nominated in 2020 and those nominated in 2021 will receive a trophy and a gift voucher from a local business at a special COVIDSafe awards night in late March at the Caloundra Power Boat Club.

“I need your help to find these unsung local people.

Please visit my website and tell me about an individual or organisation that you think deserves to win an award in any or all of my nine categories and why,” Mr Wallace said.

The award categories are in education for educator of the year, student of the year and education provider

Andrew Wallace with Ron Worthington of Palmwoods Singers Theatrical Society, which was a former finalist in the community group of the year category of the year; and in employment for business of the year, employee of the year and innovator of the year.

There are also categories for seniors for senior of the year and senior group of the year as well as the Andrew Wallace Community Group of the Year Award.

More information about the Fisher Community Awards can be found at www.andrewwallacemp.com.au/awards

WHEN entertaining, there are now many alternative disposable plates and cutlery that won’t be hanging around in our landfill for 500 years like ones made from plastic.

Some possibilities to check out are dishes and cutlery made from sugarcane pulp, bamboo, plant starch, palm leaves and paper.

Of course, using regular plates and cutlery that can be washed is the most sustainable option of all.

If you would like to join our group come along to the next meeting on Wednesday, February 17, from 6–7.30pm at the CWA Hall in Simpson Street, Beerwah. Phone 0427 873 701 or Facebook War on Waste Glasshouse Country for more information.

New database for Landsborough Museum THANKS to a grant from the Sunshine Coast Council, the Landsborough Museum is currently working to input data into a new database and cataloguing system called eHive.

This eHive system is well supported and used internationally by small to large museums.

It is a web-based database so the public will be able to access it when most of the object collection and library data is in the system.

If you know anyone interested in this type of work the museum would appreciate assistance from extra

volunteers, as it is going to take some time to load all the data. Phone the museum on 5494 1755 for details.

Dancing for fun and fitness SCOTTISH Country Dancing will recommence in Maleny on Monday, February 8 at the Maleny RSL Hall.

For those not aware of country dancing, it is not highland dancing but is danced in sets similar to bush dances and a partner is not required.

Classes will be held on a Monday night from 7-9pm and the cost is $5, with a

free first night for anyone who would like to come and try.

Newcomers will be most welcome and will find a friendly, helpful group to experience fun, fitness and fellowship.

Wear soft shoes, comfortable clothes and a smile! For further information call 0432 251 606 or 0429 654 033 after hours.

Energy rebates for concession card holders CONCESSION card holders are being encouraged to check with their energy retailers if they are eligible to receive electricity and gas rebates worth up to $416 a year.

The rebates provide welcome additional assistance towards the cost of living. Potentially, there are thousands of eligible households not taking advantage of the assistance.

The system was introduced to support pensioners, seniors and veterans, as well as healthcare card holders and asylum seekers.

Queensland Minister for Energy, Renewables and Hydrogen Mick de Brenni said the past year had been tough for everyone, so he urged all concession card holders to contact their electricity retailer.

“Just have your concession card details on hand and, if you are eligible,

you’ll be able to start accessing the rebate as a credit on your account,” Mr de Brenni said.

Concession card status is private information so electricity providers won’t automatically be aware of a customers’ eligibility. It is important to reach out directly to access the ongoing assistance.

Queensland pensioners, seniors and veterans could also be eligible for an annual gas rebate of $74.92 through the government’s reticulated natural gas rebate scheme and should check directly with their gas retailer.

For more information on the electricity rebate or reticulated natural gas rebate visit www.qld.gov.au/community/cost-ofliving-support/concessions/energyconcessions/electricity-gas-rebates or contact your electricity or gas retailer.

PLACES and FACES

First officer Scot Perrie from the Maleny and District Brigade, Rural Fire Service Queensland

Volunteering with the Rural Fire Brigade

By Sonia Isaacs Clark

IN this edition we chat with Scot Perrie, the first officer at Maleny and District Brigade, Rural Fire Service (RFS) Queensland.

Scot has been involved with the RFS for more than ten years and said being part of the organisation was like belonging to an extended family who all looked out for each other.

He said the work often brought out the very best in people, sometimes in tough situations, and he strongly encouraged those with a willingness to assist their local community to consider joining.

Q: Why should people consider joining their local RFS brigade?

It is a great way to give back to the community and it gives you a real sense of civic duty to support the greater good.

There is the opportunity to learn new skills that extend beyond firefighting and it is also a great way to network within the local community.

Belonging to the brigade gives you the opportunity work with people you may not normally meet.

Our brigade members come from a range of professions including doctors, farmers, engineers and painters and are aged from 18 to 74 years.

It also allows for new experiences, not just fighting fires, as we assist the Queensland Ambulance Service, Queensland Fire and Rescue Service (QFES) and State Emergency Service.

We do storm damage, community engagement and education, and also assist with recovering patients for other services. We can deploy intrastate and interstate to assist our colleagues in times of need.

Q: What is involved in volunteering?

Generally, two or three hours of training at the brigade per fortnight (depending on what brigade you are with) and volunteers undertake their firefighter minimum skills course, which is done over a six-week period at two hours a week and includes all the basic skills on fire behaviour, safety and communications.

Volunteers also participate in brigade activities, where they can give as little or as much time as they want.

It’s important to note that there are both operational (active firefighters) and support (community education, logistics, communication and maintenance/stores) roles available, and there is no cost to the member as all uniforms, equipment and training is provided free of charge.

Q: What training opportunities are there?

We offer firefighter minimum skills combined with respond to isolated/remote structures, which give a Certificate II in Public Safety (Firefighting). As you progress there are many more courses you can take including training in firefighter advanced skills, first aid, crew leader, officer training, chainsaw use, 4WD, incident management, airbase operator and public information officer. There are training opportunities available that can provide additional knowledge and skills for everyday life.

Do you like helping older people in your community?

Working in aged care could be for you!

WE ARE SEEKING PARTICIPANTS FOR CHC33015 Certificate III – Individual Support (Ageing, Home and Community) STARTING EARLY 2021 Training and Work Placement at NO COST to eligible participants

For enquiries and to check if you are eligible* call Aimee for a chat 0424 811 238 or 5491 4000 aimee@calcomm.org.au

2 days a week, 16 week program, face-to-face classes, March 2021, Beerwah

Training offered is both accredited training (nationally recognised) and non-accredited training (recognised only within QFES).

Q: What do you think makes a good RFB volunteer?

I think desirable qualities include a willingness to participate and learn, and a strong sense of community. Common sense is also important as you need to know “when to hold ’em and when to fold ’em”, meaning you need to know when to walk away from a dangerous situation – we all go out together and we all come back together.

Q: How can people get involved?

Local brigades include Maleny, Landsborough, Beerwah, Glass House Mountains, Peachester, Crystal Waters, Conondale and Eudlo. You can either drop into your local brigade station or call 5293 4206 (Caloundra area office) and have a chat and they can put you in contact with your local brigade or go to the RFS website www.ruralfire.qld.gov.au to fill in an expression of interest for volunteering.

New member Dianne Potts (centre) with president Deb Sanchez and Norma McCormack

EACH year the Zonta Club of Blackall Range creates a business directory for the range community that is made possible with the support of local businesses.

The directory is one of the main fundraisers for the club, supporting projects such as purchasing birthing kits for developing countries and preparing refuge packs for various women’s shelters on the Sunshine Coast.

If you have seen the directory you will recognise the colourful rooster featured on the cover, which was painted by Dorothy Peall, a member of the Blackall Range Visual Artists for the past 12 years.

Originally Dorothy was commission to create a work of a single rooster with attitude for a friend as a Christmas gift.

Dorothy said commissions were very daunting but she was “always surprised at what I am able to push myself to create (artists are our worst critics) and the wonderful reaction of the person who ordered it”.

Keep an eye out for the free directory that can be collected at various locations including Maleny, Flaxton, Montville, Mapleton, Palmwoods and Woombye.

YOU First Nations’ remembrance day ON January 26 I attended a remembrance ceremony at the RSL Hall in Maleny.

What was it in remembrance of?

Those ďŹ rst and original inhabitants of this land and country Australia, who had very sophisticated land management and food supply systems across the country.

Read Bruce Pascoe’s book ‘Dark Emu’ to grasp the scope of their developed culture.

Rather than the First Fleet of 1,500 men, women, children and military, including 560 convicts, we chose to acknowledge the original inhabitants who we now know fought and died for their country, one they had continuously inhabited for 60,000 plus years.

There were 200-250 people, locals from Maleny and surrounding areas acknowledging First Nations.

Australia Day is also known as Invasion Day as the original people lost their land, their food sources, their culture and their language. A series of massacres occurred and resistance wars were fought against white settlement.

Thousands lost their lives to guns and poisons.

At the remembrance ceremony I heard that we need a new history of our country that records the truth of what happened to the original peoples so we can go forward and build on reconciliation.

Read the local award-winning book ‘Warrior’ by Libby Connors about local South East Queensland Aboriginal leader and lawman Dundalli (18201855). It will tell you a story you may not have heard about before on Aboriginal interaction with white settlement right here in SE Queensland and its consequences. Pre-settlement in this area had a very rich regional economy and exquisite natural features

and resources. Much was lost due to expansionist settlements reaching into Aboriginal lands.

Today the best you can do is to learn about what was here before and acknowledge the lost land and people.

Then we can go on to move forward to a better joint future.

Support Local Businesses I would like to clarify the misconception that I am not a supporter of “shop local� (GC&M News, December 21).

For many years we have been involved in retail in our community, including 31 years in the Glass House Mountains Post Oice. We always shop locally where possible, as do most residents of the hinterland townships.

I did mention in my letter (GC&M News, December 9) that the Caloundra South shopping complex would be able to provide goods and services that are not available locally in the hinterland townships.

One could wonder whether Coles may have led the community astray somewhat with talk of hardware/ nursery, bulky goods, white goods, etc and by comparing the proposed Beerwah Homemaker Centre with the Homemaker centres in Maroochydore and Kawana.

Yes, it would be most convenient to have a big comprehensive homemaker centre in Beerwah but it is unrealistic given the population of the hinterland and that such centres favour locations of high density housing development.

In a recent response to questions from the community, the Coles Group actually ruled out Bunnings or Spotlight stores in their development.

Australia wide, bulky goods outlets are small in number. For example, The

Good Guys has 100 stores, Early Settler has 54 in Australia and New Zealand, Harvey Norman has 193 and JB Hi-Fi has 198.

Therefore, I believe that there is very little chance of attracting any such outlets to Beerwah. Hence my comment that locals could shop for these goods at the Caloundra South shopping centre.

Queuing at QML I am disappointed with the lack of common courtesy and inconsiderate attitude of some people.

On Monday, January 25 I went for a blood test at QML at the Coral Street Medical Centre. I am an insulindependent diabetic who had to go for a fasting blood test.

Fasting tests are always a problem for me because my blood sugar levels (BSL) are generally low before breakfast and I can’t eat before the test.

said

IT

I always go early so that I am ďŹ rst in line for a test and then I can go home for something to eat. People were gathering as normal and I have always found that people sort themselves out in order of arrival.

On this occasion a woman arrived later - she may have been number ďŹ ve or six in order of arrival. She stood right in front of the door and when the QML lady opened the door she marched straight in ahead of earlier arrivals to get the number one ticket.

Not wanting to make an issue of it, I ended with ticket number four, which put me back 45 minutes.

As a result my BSL was getting critically low before I had my test.

If this lady was so intent on being number one she should get there early as I did and not jump the queue in front of earlier arrivals.

FairPlay kicking goals for families

Swimmers team up

THE latest round of the Queensland Government’s FairPlay vouchers are now open, with eligible families of children aged 5-17 years able to apply.

As thousands of Queensland kids are about to line up for their favourite sport or activity, for low-income families having access to the $150 voucher could be a huge help.

Minister for Sport Stirling Hinchliffe said the government was investing $7.5 million to help pay club registration fees for up to 50,000 young Queenslanders from low-income families.

“The Palaszczuk government’s FairPlay vouchers could be the difference for many kids between getting fit and active or spending the season on the couch,” Mr Hinchliffe said.

“FairPlay reduces one of the barriers standing between some young Queenslanders making the team - the cost of joining a club.”

Parents or guardians should have a valid health care card or pensioner

THE Beerwah Swim Club believes last year was the first time that the club had teams competing in relays at the Queensland Swimming Championships.

GC&M News was told that while the club’s records don’t date back very far, it was definitely the first time that the small club’s current members can remember.

The Beerwah Splash club is a closeknit small crew, which means there are rarely four boys or girls in the different age groups to make up a relay team.

However, for this event six girls came together to form two relay teams.

Kael, Grace, Indi and Iris competed in the under 14 medley and freestyle relays while Poppy, Ella, Indi and Iris competed in the 15 and over freestyle and medley relays.

concession card with the child’s name on it, or be identified by a registered referral agent such as a youth worker or child safety officer.

There are many sports and activities to choose from including cricket, tennis, football, basketball, netball, scouts, roller skating, equestrian, calisthenics, canoeing, BMX, cheer-leading and martial arts, with a number of local clubs registered.

Applications close on March 17, unless vouchers are exhausted earlier. To find out if your child is eligible and how to apply visit www.qld.gov.au/fairplayvouchers

Safer fencing for bocce

The ladies return to 2021 at Tibro’s

THE Beerwah Sportsground’s management committee is constantly undertaking tasks to maintain the whole area to an excellent standard for the community.

The most recently completed project was the long overdue job of replacing the fencing surrounding the bocce bowls area that had become unsafe, rusted and rickety. It is now new, very stable and safe.

The $4,500 funds required for the job was provided by a Queensland Government grant and the work was completed by Domestic and Rural Fencing.

music gig GUIDE LIVING

music TODAY

with Dr Michael Whiticker

Live performance and playing in a band today LIKE many musicians, I enjoy most of my playing at home in the privacy of my studio space these days. It is not just COVID that has reduced public performance - there are simply fewer opportunities than there were 30 or 40 years ago. That, of course, is only of academic interest. Should it matter that music making is becoming more of a private passion?

We have the advantage today of the internet and the endless resources it provides and live streaming is improving in quality. Why not let musicians fade away to the privacy of their own space? Well, for a start, live performing is an individual need. Some musicians must play in a front of an audience and will do almost anything to perform publicly. There is also the strong argument that as well as entertaining, live performance is therapeutic for both the giver and receiver.

Taking the argument that it is good for musicians to share their music making, how can they best do it?

Again, it is an individual thing. I know of some players who are confirmed soloists, but most enjoy performing with others. Group ensembles such as choirs and ukulele orchestras suit some but many enjoy a smaller band format of one sort or another.

Many of us have played in bands and the experience can be both good and bad. In a typical four-piece with

vocal, drums, lead and bass guitar, each member is integral to the sound and if one falls out with the others or moves away or changes musical direction, or simply gets frustrated with the weekly rehearsal, then there is a hole in the band and a new player has to be found and has a repertoire to learn.

How many times have I heard the story of an essential member leaving the band in the lurch? A friend related that his Police tribute band (the late ’70s group, not the force) had rehearsed for a year and was ready to start performing when the singing bass player (the Sting of the band) moved to Tassie.

My personal ideal is a duo format. With popular music/folk/jazz, etc, it gives you the potential of two voices for harmonies, someone for a soloist to bounce off, variety for an audience and, let’s face it, two is better than one. Two reasonable players at their best lift each other and generally make better music than one good player.

Today with loopers and subtle use of backings for accompaniment, a band sound can be achieved.

Business-wise there is little payment in music anymore, so most are performing for love. It can be a lonely occupation, especially as a soloist, so more than anything the company with a duo or trio is welcome.

It’s time to kick back, relax and not take yourself or others too seriously. With Mercury out of phase, think carefully about creating rifts that you’re likely to regret. To ward off Mercury’s pessimism do everything in your power to alleviate stress and have fun. A little romance and revelry might do.

Some healthy exercise too.

This week Ariens are hit by an emotional superstorm. It’s not your fault blame a malevolent Mercury. Unexpected or hidden issues resurface, and you’re not happy about it. Some will choose to hide away from life’s current madness. Others will stick around and resolve troubling matters.

Do whatever soothes heart, mind and soul.

Your real rewards will arrive soon Taurus but, despite a meddling Mercury, there’s plenty to accomplish this week. If you can survive an untimely setback, there’s no stopping you. Just stay determined. One individual in particular has a powerful effect on you. A little extravagance is also likely, as you may have some extra cash to spend.

Mercury slips into hibernation, inviting Geminis to do the same. This looks like a quiet week. Talk could turn towards moving house or the need for DIY to a residence or relationship. Of course, life would be more exciting with a touch of passion. Don’t fret – someone special is nearly within kissing distance.

The pace continues to be slower this week. While Cancers love a break, you don’t enjoy disruption to your routine. Should retrograde Mercury halt plans, don’t try to speed things up or you may jeopardise future opportunities. While waiting for your own ventures to get back on track, offer to help others. The favour will eventually be returned.

Many facets of our lives are continuously subject to change, and this week it’s relationships. This kind of repair work will need your commitment but progress in any area is seldom easy without patience and, perhaps, some compromise. Besides, there’s a special kind of wealth to be found in genuine love and friendship.

Your outlook on life undergoes a major revision right now, particularly as a pensive Mercury has you reassessing relationships. If you no longer share the same values, start replacing friends for those that truly understand you. Indeed, expect associates to come and go for a while. Life may be unsteady but you will also feel a sense of relief.

You prefer your life uncluttered Libra. It’s unfortunate, then, that this week looks a tad messy especially for those in love affairs. Perhaps one participant has failed to mention that there’s a third party in the mix.

If that’s you, are you really prepared to risk everything for a short-term fling? Business matters look more settled.

With Mercury still sliding backwards, don’t start anything new. To avoid errors, double check your finances, reconfirm appointments, have everything ready before a deadline and leave extra time for the unexpected. Also remember – the past has a cute way of reappearing on your doorstep when you least expect it.

Mercury is at a standstill, which has most of your zodiac neighbours in a flutter but not you Sagittarius. This week you’re determined to take that proverbial leap of faith. Go for it. You have planetary permission to take what’s yours and the time is right to trash whatever’s stagnant or obsolete. So out with the old and in with the new.

Retrograde Mercury brings its usual disruption with home life becoming chaotic. If feeling frustrated or angry, your patience with loved ones may run thin. Every Capricorn has a true sense of justice, so what you give is what you expect to receive.

If loved ones are taking advantage, you’ll quickly let them know.

Glasshouse Country & Maleny News

Don’t let it get to you Aquarius.

If this week runs like a comedy of errors try to laugh with every turn. If it all becomes too confusing, things will just run amuck.

So, whatever you’ve had planned may not happen. This needn’t be a disaster even if it is unscheduled. If still pushed for direction, be inspired by your amazing creativity.

Now, here’s a better week as others seem more prepared to grant your requests. By now you’ve probably accumulated a very long wish list, so gently start hinting at what you want. They say that there’s a time and a place for everything. For you it’s now. There’s also focus on rebuilding friendships – more so via social media.

Someone simply doesn’t understand your thoughts or actions this week and they may even go out of their way to hold you back. Best advice: never allow others to smother your dreams. You knew what you wanted long before they arrived on the scene. If this individual truly loves you, they will support you through thick and thin.

A chance to cash in enables enterprising Taureans to make the best of negotiating skills. There’s a strong emphasis on money and property. This week also brings a crucial emotional crunch. For a while now you’ve been battling with difficult restrictions and you’ve worn them well. By late week, however, you can expect a happy surprise.

Much can be achieved this week, but you must avoid burnout. Push your energies if you really need to but not to the point where you’re teetering on the edge.

Similarly, don’t let competitors force you beyond your limits. Remember, you call the shots not them. Upside: the week could also offer extra cash.

Times have been hard for a while now with money issues demanding more attention. Good news: this week anxiety starts to ease to the point where you can relax. Quality time isn’t so easy to come by during difficult times, so accept this short spell of fun and friendship as a gift from the heavens. Whatever happens, simply enjoy.

You’re entitled to be proud of your resilience Leo as you’ve come through a difficult time. Now comes the irresistible urge for something new. This week’s changes release tremendous reserves of inner power – a perfect time for the real you to shine through. If a constricting job or relationship is holding you back, this could be the time to break free.

Many Virgos have been rushed lately. Perhaps you should stop for a minute and tend to more mundane tasks – groceries for instance. You need to eat. On the upside: you start to notice much self-improvement.

It’s all to do with a clever mind, confidence and strong personal magnetism. You’re also entitled to your fair share of fun!

You long to confide in someone but you’re not sure who to trust. Holding your cards too close to your chest isn’t the best idea as you need someone to help you process those confused thoughts. Just don’t call that gossipy or casual friend. Dial up a true confidante. You could also book a spa session to simply relax.

Your head’s spinning Scorpio. Not surprising considering this week’s cash crisis.

And for you no funds means no fun. Perhaps it’s time to restore financial equilibrium. Soon the cosmos will step in with an emergency back-up plan but not for a few weeks. Until then, stay frugal. There are many ways to have fun without spending a fortune.

It doesn’t matter whether you focus current attentions on moving house, career or love – this week instigates changes, mostly positive. Some say you’re impatient. Possibly, but only regarding the trivialities of life. The strong resolve you’ve had to call on in recent months will now make you much more confident. You won’t be disappointed.

If you can placate rather than push you’ll be fine. Unfortunately you’re in a stubborn mood and not really open to others’ suggestions. This week asks that you resolve any emotional issues. A tough ask considering what’s been happening. Nonetheless, forgiveness of both yourself and others can only lead to peace of mind.

State Member for Caloundra

And they’re off SUNSHINE Coast students are back at school and hoping 2021 is less eventful than the school year of 2020.

On Wednesday I attended the Baringa State Secondary College for the first day of its foundation year and what a genuine privilege it was to see the students walking into a brand new school with state-of-the-art modern facilities.

We will all sometimes encounter and even be guilty of echoing the “back in my day” sentiment, reflecting that students of today are luckier than we were with lavish equipment and schools that are luxurious by the standards of our own schooling.

I would urge caution before the backin-my-day idea takes hold.

First, the pressure on modern students and the depth of expectation on them is very considerable and is,

Caring for our parks and gardens There is no doubt Division 5 includes some of the Sunshine Coast’s most stunning outdoor areas and I’d like to ask for your patience while council’s parks and gardens team works to keep them looking great.

Our region is currently experiencing high turf growth due to optimal conditions, and weather and site conditions (including possible future fire risk), which may result in some delays.

Please know our dedicated team is hard at work catching up and continuing with scheduled maintenance.

Keeping you connected Please keep an eye on my Facebook page for the latest Division 5 news and information. Visit www.facebook.com/ winstonjohnstondivision5scc

dare I say, far greater than back in my day.

The modern curriculum is a wonderfully diverse expanse of choices and opportunity for modern students and our young people rise to this challenge with an effortlessness that frequently leaves me shaking my head in admiration.

Second, lavish is exactly the expectation that I think should go hand-in-hand with education.

As parents we should be demanding that the fiscal and material resources directed into the education of our children is lavish.

Science labs, learning resource centres (libraries to us older folk), all of them should be lavish because our students deserve nothing less.

The future looks bright … just like our kids.

FREE community-based workshops that focus on positive steps towards managing chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes are once again being offered by Sunshine Coast Health and Hospital Service (SCHHS).

SCHHS health promotion officer Kerry Roach, who coordinates the workshops, says type 2 diabetes is the most common form of diabetes.

It affects 85-90% of all people with diabetes and can be largely prevented by leading a healthy life.

“With the easing of COVID-19 restrictions our workshops are scheduled to run regularly across

the Sunshine Coast and Gympie region, giving people an opportunity to remain focussed, stay updated with knowledge and feel well supported,” Kerry said.

The workshops are open to anyone diagnosed with type 2 diabetes or pre-diabetes, with family or carers also welcome to attend. They will run all year with the first block starting on February 11.

Upcoming workshops include Maroochydore on February 11 and Caloundra on February 25. Both run from 9am–1pm and are free to attend.

To register your interest phone 5479 9670.

Start your 2021 by giving yourself a lift WE all know that looking out for others starts by looking after our own mental and physical wellbeing. In fact, it’s vital in maintaining healthy relationships.

You can make a positive start to 2021 by taking part in the third round of the Sunshine Coast Council’s free online wellbeing program, The Lift Project Sunshine Coast, which starts on February 8.

More than 4,000 Sunshine Coast residents of all ages participated in

the 10-week program last year and the council would love to hear from you if you would like to give it a go.

The council was one of the first organisations to partner with creator and international wellbeing expert Dr Darren Morton. The lessons are easy, fun and educational.

• It’s important to keep up regular watering of citrus while they are flowering and developing small fruits.

• Fertilise your Camellia sasanqua bushes as the buds appear. Use a special camellia and azalea fertiliser.

• Remove the spent flowering stems of agapanthus. You can collect the seed and grow them yourself.

• Prepare bulb beds and beds for spring-flowering annuals with deep digging, addition of organic matter and mulching. Start looking in books or on the internet for different spring flowering bulbs you might like to order this month and plant in autumn.

• Once the sweet corn has finished, start to prepare it for pea and snow pea crops by digging in some garden lime to raise the pH level in preparation for March/April planting. Chop up the old sweet corn plants and dig them back into the garden as organic matter. A mower with a catcher does a good job of this if you don’t have a mulcher.

Talking bugs ‘DAYS of our hives’, ‘Eating insects for sustainability’ and ‘Sects, bugs and rock n roll’ are some of the titles of a fascinating series of bug talks, hosted monthly by Mooloolah River Landcare on Saturday afternoons by renowned entomologist, the bug lady Michelle Gleeson.

The first talk in the series was about insect classification and included a pinning/mounting workshop with attendees going home with a sustainably sourced rhinoceros beetle and an orchard swallowtail butterfly to start their own collections.

The Days of our hives talk will be held on February 27, Eating insects for sustainability on March 27 and Sects, bugs and rock ‘n’ roll on May 1.

Michelle is the director of Bugs Ed

and an adjunct university fellow at The University of Queensland.

She is the author of ‘Miniature Lives: Identifying insects in your home and garden’ and one of her career highlights was working with Sir David Attenborough wrangling rhinoceros beetles alongside real rhinos at Australia Zoo. Her monthly presentations are held onsite at the Mooloolah River Landcare native nursery, 2671 Steve Irwin Way, Glenview. Placements are limited so bookings are essential.

Sunshine Coast Council’s grants program supported this initiative and tickets are $10 per person. If you are interested in attending email Jessica Raintree at mrwl.projects@gmail.com.

Maleny Bowls Club

Contributed Miles Allen

It was another action-packed week at the club.

On Monday we welcomed six teams from Kilcoy, Woodford and Mapleton in our monthly pairs competition. We were generous in letting Bill Edwards and Noel Lane from Kilcoy win the competition again. Graeme Glover and Miles Allen were the runners-up.

We are now into our Wednesday night competition and we saw 40 bowlers enjoy the barbeque, beer and the bowls.

There are four teams with maximum points and two teams with zero points, but it’s early days.

The 3 Flamingos beat the Outlaws on the last end. Mo’s Marauders had a close win over the Golfers. RPT (ex-Handles) were merciless in annihilating the Mighty 10s and the Oblimeys easily

Kay Gesch and Liz Williams inspect an unusual end – the idea is to keep the bowls on the green

squashed the JAM team.

The Musketeers had their first win of the season by beating the Mavericks.

Pegasus continued their winning streak by beating the Wot Notts. The Amigos gained three points for being there.

Rumours suggest that the Tutors have been busy devising a new game plan which involves turning up and bowling.

On Friday 19, players turned up for scroungers. This week most of the winners had low handicaps but it’s not always like that. And because they won, their handicaps have been lowered.

John Williams narrowly beat Sally Squires and Joe Walters. Miles Allen beat Kay Gesch and Liz Williams.

Kay got off to a flying start with 14 points after three ends but couldn’t maintain that standard. Brian Squires beat Dennis Kyling and Don Ginns. Brian scored maximum points on three ends.

In a close game, Marg Ginns beat Dave Robson and Mick Bulger with only three points separating them. Marilyn Podmore excelled with a raw score of 52 over Brett Gillis and Wendy Bulger.

While John Long played consistently to beat Ben Fawns, Judith Lees and Relma Godfrey.

We play every Tuesday morning, Wednesday night and Friday afternoon.

If you want to know more, phone the club on 5494 2335, leave a message and we’ll get back to you.

Range Croquet Club Contributed by Ken Barker

TWO games of doubles were played on Thursday, January 21. On lawn one Donna Manning and Bev Sockhill won against Vince Carbery and Janelle Wilson 12-6. On lawn two Ken Barker and Gillian Bradley came a close second to Val Carbery and Lynette Evans 5-6.

Sarah Widin was the star on Sunday, January 24, pegging out 26–1 against Vince and Donna. Wallace Roy and Nick Cram were no match for Helen Andrews and Kath Smith in their game, going down 8–10 with Wallace scoring as many hoops as Nick in some intra-team rivalry.

Ken and Val played to an exciting finish. Val, on her last turn, missed four back leaving Ken with a 16–15 win. Lynette and Janelle played a very

instructive game to finish 6–2, with Lynette taking home the spoils.

Our excellent, well cared for lawns are on the right-hand side of the Maleny Showground.

Play days are Thursdays and Sundays at 2pm for 2.30pm. Contact Sarah Widin for other days. Coaching is available on Saturday mornings at 8am.

JUST FOR LAUGHS Helpful neighbour

A little silver-haired lady calls her neighbour and says: “Please come over here and help me. I have a killer jigsaw puzzle and I can’t figure out how to get started.”

Her neighbour asks: “What is it supposed to be when it’s finished?”

The lady says: “According to the picture on the box it’s a rooster.”

Her neighbour decides to go over and help with the puzzle. The lady lets him in and shows him where she has the puzzle spread all over the table.

He studies the pieces for a moment, then looks at the box, then turns to her and says: “First of all, no matter what we do, we’re not going to be able to assemble these pieces into anything resembling a rooster.”

He takes her hand and says: “Secondly, I want you to relax. Let’s have a nice cup of tea and then,” he says with a deep sigh “let’s put all the Corn Flakes back in the box.”
