Our cover story, this week, is all about the rise in popularity of a seafoodadorned table for Christmas lunch. There’s no denying that this trend of replacing the traditional Christmas lunch (chicken, ham, pork, turkey, roast
22 26
the like, has gained a lot of traction in Australia over the last decade or so, not least of which here in the Hunter Region – an area blessed with an abundance of great seafood. While I enjoy a slap-up seafood meal as much as the next gastrophile, there is something about the traditional baked Christmas lunch that holds a special place in my heart (although possibly not as good for my heart) and the images of Christmases past that this mountain of baked food conjures up. While, this year, I might acquiesce and fill my Yuletide lunch plate with some prawns, salmon and a selection of zesty salads, for me Christmas just would not be Christmas without the Christmas leg ham (off the bone, of course) on piping hot toast with butter and lashings of seeded mustard. Yum. Have a great week! - Stephen Bisset

Local clinic a top priority
Newcastle Community Drug Action Team chairperson Tony Brown.
specialised clinic to treat and manage alcohol-related birth defects and disorders could become a reality in Newcastle in the near future. Newcastle Community Drug Action Team chairperson Tony Brown attended a roundtable, hosted by the federal Department of Health, in Canberra, earlier this month, where leading paediatricians and other health professionals supported the notion of a Newcastle clinic to manage Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD). FASD is a group of nongenetic, physical, intellectual and developmental birth defects caused by the consumption of alcohol during pregnancy. Like Thalidomide and Agent Orange, alcohol is a teratogen, meaning it damages
DNA in unborn babies. It is believed there are certain stages during pregnancy, when development is most critical, during which drinking any amount of alcohol has the greatest impact on the baby. In some people, FASD is recognisable through facial deformities, but in others, who suffer neurological impairments and mental health issues, it is not so easily detected. Although Australian FASD studies are limited, US research suggests it affects around 7% of children. At the roundtable, Mr Brown advocated for Newcastle as an ideal location for a treatment clinic. “Our large international health and research facilities and major hospital make Newcastle the ideal location for an integrated FASD
clinic with outreach services covering the Hunter New England region of just over 900,000 people,” he said. In the May federal budget, the government announced $10.5 million in funding, from 2016/17 to 2019/20, for five FASD treatment clinics across regional Australia, in addition to the two trial sites in Fitzroy Crossing, Western Australia, and the Gold Coast, Queensland. Mr Brown said this funding announcement was discussed at the roundtable, and, in due course, when the government began its tender process, the Newcastle Community Drug Action Team would apply for funding. “This is a hidden epidemic, that is primarily preventable,” he said. “We cannot ignore it.” - Georgia Osland

news Compass backs competition call A new report, released last week by the Productivity Commission, encouraging greater competition and user choice within the social housing sector has been welcomed by Hunter-based community housing provider Compass Housing. The Human Services: Identifying Sectors for Reform Study report, identified the social housing sector as one of six human services where outcomes could be improved. The other five services identified were: public hospitals; end-of-life care services; public dental services; services in remote Indigenous communities; and government commissioned family and community services. Compass Housing group managing director Greg Budworth said that while more research and study was needed, the
recommendation for the state government to open the door to a bigger role for not-forprofit housing providers could overcome problems currently hindering the system including, financial pressures on government housing authorities, increasing maintenance costs and changing demography of tenants. “Just like anywhere that is urbanised, the Hunter region is definitely experiencing these issues and, while more study needs to be done, Compass Housing applauds the findings of the Productivity Commission report,” he said. In Newcastle, there are approximately 1700 households on the social housing waiting list with waiting times varying from two years for a one-bedroom flat to more than 10 years for a larger property.
New lease of life for former Pasminco site Plans are afoot to redevelop the land once occupied by Pasminco smelter in Boolaroo. Greencapital Australia Pty Ltd has lodged plans with Lake Macquarie council for a 680-lot residential development on 66 hectares, in its first foray into development in the Hunter region. The Bunderra and the Lake subdivision project completely reimagines the vacant land, which has
caused quite a flurry in recent years, with community concerns the site had not been properly remediated after the smelter closed in 2003. However, blood-lead level testing, conducted last year by Hunter New England Health, revealed no elevated levels of lead in residents of Boolaroo and surrounding areas. Greencapital hopes to start work on the subdivision by mid-2017, pending council approval.
Consistent approach to shark management Lake Macquarie council is working with various agencies to ensure best-practice shark sighting management techniques in the region, and promote a consistent approach across the state. Council staff met with professional beach lifeguard service and risk managers from other regional councils, last week, along with representatives from the NSW Department of Primary Industries to discuss shark management, including the need to keep the public consistently informed about sightings.

news John Hunter Hospital’s emergency department waiting times are the worst in the Hunter region. Photo: Peter Stoop.
Hospital patients made to wait If you need to visit the emergency departments at John Hunter, Maitland or Calvary Mater hospitals, there’s a good chance you could be waiting longer than four hours to receive medical attention, new data suggests. Independent Bureau of Health Information statistics for the July-September period show that 38.5% of patients waited longer than four hours in the emergency department at John Hunter Hospital. At Maitland Hospital, that figure was 29.5%, while the Calvary Mater Hospital’s rate was slightly better, at 27.2%. These statistics are part of a grim,
overall picture of the state’s public health system, with almost 30% of all patients across New South Wales stuck in emergency departments for longer than four hours. Those 186,000 patients waited a collective 744,000 hours – or more. Elective surgery waiting lists were also at record lengths last quarter, with the median waiting time for non-urgent surgery being 220 days. “Unfortunately, patients wait at every stage,” Shadow Minister for Health Walt Secord said. - Georgia Osland
Safety boost for Bathers Way The next stage of Newcastle City Council’s Bathers Way project will see an existing footpath widened and road improvements made to provide a safer link between King Edward Park and Memorial Drive. The path, between Strzelecki Lookout and the heritage park, will be expanded to four metres in width to allow shared access for pedestrians and cyclists, while traffic flows will be tempered on surrounding streets to accommodate the expected increase in visitors to Memorial Walk. Work to be done in the King Edward Park to Memorial Walk link stage includes: a new pedestrian crossing at the entrance to Strzelecki car park; one-way traffic in Cliff Street; realigning the High Street and Memorial Drive intersection; smart parking signage for Strzelecki car park; and upgrades to lighting, landscaping, tree planting, drainage and park access points. Initial works are scheduled to begin early next year at the intersection of The Terrace and Bingle Street.

news Good deed helps homeless
Butcher Ian Wheeler, Lake Macquarie Mayor Kay Fraser, and Salvation Army Swansea Chaplain Greg Swane.
A good deed by one Blacksmiths man will see some of Lake Macquarie’s homeless population receive a free, pre-Christmas meal, and extra money in the Salvation Army’s pocket. Ian Wheeler often sees Salvation Army Swansea Chaplain Greg Swane down at Swansea RSL on a Friday night, optimistically
shaking a donation bucket. This Christmas, Ian wanted to do his bit to help those less fortunate. It just so happens that Ian owns Blacksmiths Family Meats butchery, and had a few kilos of meat to spare. At a special presentation, last week, attended by Lake Macquarie mayor Kay Fraser, Ian presented the Salvation Army with about $650 worth of meat – 35 kilograms of sausages, three legs of ham, 200 kebabs and a bag of onions, to be exact. The Salvation Army used the sausages to hold a sausage sizzle, at the weekend, to raise extra funds for the much-needed welfare service. The rest of the meat will be used in a big feast to feed the homeless the Thursday before Christmas. - Georgia Osland

news Happiness has long ears For Christine Berry, caring for sick or injured donkeys has been a consuming passion for 40 years. Christine’s Donkey Welfare With Heart Inc. charity, at Bishops Bridge, near Maitland, works tirelessly, with a team of dedicated volunteers, to improve the lives of these irresistible long-eared critters and currently cares for more than 269 donkeys in the Hunter Valley. “2016 is my 40th year involved in donkey care, I’ve had the same vet for 40 years and many of my 40 volunteers have been with me for more than 30 years,” Christine said. “But, donkeys have always been a feature of my life and they have always fascinated me – I think I might be part donkey.”

While Christine said that the work the charity does puts them face-to-face with some pretty unpleasant situations, she added that the feeling of accomplishment, when she sees a healthy donkey leave the ICU, was almost immeasurable. “Our volunteers see lots of terrible things like starvation, donkeys crippled due to hoof neglect,
obese donkeys, but we don’t often see blatant cruelty – most of what we see is due to ignorance of the owners, and part of what we do is try to educate as well as rehabilitate.” Christine added that one of the main aims of the charity, currently, was to raise enough money to buy a parcel of land for the donkeys to live on in perpetuity. “We need somewhere to leave to the donkeys so they have a safe-haven forever,” she said. Further, given the donkey’s connection to the Christmas narrative, Christine added that now was the perfect time to sponsor a donkey. “For $100 minimum per year, people can sponsor one of these beautiful creatures and we’ll give people regular photo and video updates and, while we’re closed to the public due to quarantine, we do have open days where people can come along and interact with these humble and gorgeous creatures.” For more information on how you can support Donkey Welfare With Heart Inc., visit donkeywelfare.com.au - Stephen Bisset

Young people in Newcastle and Maitland see alcohol and drugs as the most important issue in Australia, a Mission Australia survey shows. Of 293 participants aged 15 to 19 in Mission Australia’s annual Youth Survey, 34.5% ranked alcohol and drugs as the biggest issue facing Australia. After alcohol and drugs, 22.5% of respondents ranked equity and discrimination as the next biggest issue, followed by international

relations (17.8% of respondents). This pattern was similar statewide; however, respondents across New South Wales ranked mental health as the third-biggest issue in Australia – coming in at 22.6%. It was the first time in the survey’s 15-year history that mental health ranked among the top three issues. Sally Rust, who is based in Newcastle and manages Mission Australia’s Youth on Track program, which works with children who are at risk of or are already involved in the juvenile justice system, said the Newcastle and Maitland-specific responses were reflective of society. “I think it’s got a lot to do with what the kids are seeing in the media and how that’s influencing their thoughts,” Ms Rust said. - Georgia Osland

news Family’s bid to decipher bird’s past
Do you recognise this bird? He was found, lost and alone, on a Kahibah lawn one sunny morning, around 17 years ago, by Liz Sutcliffe. A real estate agent living in Valentine at the time, Liz rescued the little yellow cockatiel and searched in earnest for his owner. She knocked on doors, plastered signs around the neighbourhood, ran lost-and-found ads in the newspaper and on the radio – but no one came forward to collect him. A few weeks went by, and, when
15th - Sunday 19th Available Wednesday stocks last. ile wh or of December
Liz and her husband Tony hadn’t heard anything, they adopted him. “I didn’t take him home with the intent of keeping him, but someone needed to look after him,” Liz said. Soon, this cheeky cockatiel, which the family fondly named Oscar, became “the centre of the household”. He could repeat his name and sing melodic tunes, and was loved by the entire family. “He wasn’t a bird,” Liz said. “He may have been in a bird’s body, but he had a person’s personality.” Two weeks ago, Oscar passed away. His adoptive family had no idea of Oscar’s age, or his history. Now, Liz is reaching out to the Hunter community in the hope that she might find Oscar’s previous owner, and let them know how much he was loved. If you have any information about Oscar, email tsutcliffe@activ8.net.au

The group, or ‘community facilitators’, hope this figure will be enough to convince the NRL that a community-owned team is a more attractive proposition than privatisation. The club has been in the hands of the NRL since 2014, after former owner Nathan Tinkler’s three-year run left the franchise in

financial disarray. Phase one of the plan was the announcement, last week, and a call for expressions of interest on the website [ourknights.com.au], which is expected to run for three months. The group will also be hosting community and business forums as well as formal polling throughout the region. Phase two would see a trust account established and, if the community share-drive produces the projected $15 million minimum, it is anticipated stage three would be a three or four-month period, during which the club would make the transition to community ownership, in time for the 2018 season.

BACK TO SCHOOL TIPS
Life seems to go from zero to one hundred during the first few weeks of school and, while the 2016 school year may be wrapping up, it’s never too early to start planning for the year ahead. Here are some suggestions to help the year run smoothly. • Check the school has all your contact information, including daytime phone numbers. Have you changed address or phone number since last year? • Have you nominated a current emergency contact – someone who would be able to come and collect your child if you weren't available? After you check with them, supply their details to the school. • Medications that are kept at school. Are they up-to-date with complete, current instructions for use? Have you supplied any ‘consumables' necessary for administering the medication to your child? • Does your child need a mobile phone this year? Make sure they have your contact numbers and emergency
• •
•
•
contacts programmed into their phone. Also, establish the rules of use at school. Label uniforms, lunch boxes, bags etc. clearly (this will save you $$$!) If you pack a lunch box, make sure you include a frozen drink or ice brick to help prevent food poisoning – especially in summer. Buy a large pump pack of sunscreen and keep it somewhere visible and handy. Get into the habit of slathering your child's face, neck and limbs before school each day. Introduce yourself to the teacher early in the year. If your school has an orientation night or 'meet the teacher' event make a point of attending. - Source: schoolatoz.nsw.edu.au

remain perennial favourites, Matt added that there were some, more exotic options, that were becoming more popular. “We’re definitely seeing a much bigger demand for Moreton Bay Bugs, especially this year,” he said. For Matt, while the Christmases in his formative years always revolved around a traditional baked dinner, since first putting seafood on the table, he hasn’t looked back. “I grew up in Newcastle and seafood was never on the menu at Christmas,” he said. “It was something I started seeing in Sydney around 15 or 20 years ago and it just keeps radiating out and getting more and more popular. “For me, it’s the simplicity, freshness and convenience – I mean, I prepare my Christmas

While there’s always going to be a place for the traditional baked dinner for Christmas lunch, there’s no denying that seafood has taken more and more of a centre stage on the festive table – especially here in the Hunter region, an area abundant in fantastic seafood options. Matt Osborne from Steel Street Fish Markets said that, year-on-year, the demand for seafood during the silly season was increasing, which he put down to a number of factors. “It’s definitely fever pitch at the moment and it seems to be getting busier every year,” he said. “I think it’s due to the weather, for one. I mean sitting down to a bowl of prawns in 40-degree heat is a lot more attractive than a baked dinner. Also, seafood is a lot more of a convenient option and fresh seafood is also a much healthier option.” While prawns, oysters and smoked salmon

CRACKING CHRISTMAS TUNES Everyone loves a good Christmas song at this time of the year and, as such, Newcastle Weekly has compiled a list of some of the best Christmas albums that are sure to get you in the festive spirit, come December 25.
She & Him – A She & Him Christmas (2011) Twee US actress Zooey Deschanel (Elf, New Girl) teams up with alt. rocker M Ward for this whimsical take on some great Yuletide fare with uncomplicated arrangements featuring guitar, piano and ukulele. The winter classic Baby It’s Cold Outside is a definite standout, as is their take on Brenda Lee’s Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree and Elvis’ festive staple, Blue Christmas.
Sufjan Stevens – Songs for Christmas (2006) Idyosyncratic US songwriter Sufjan Stevens’ five-EP collection box-set boasts a formidable 44 Yuletide songs – a beguiling mixture of Sufjan’s take on such classics as Silent Night, Away In a Manger and O Holy Night, and his own quirky festive concoctions such as Did I Make You Cry on Christmas, Sister Winter, and That Was The Worst Christmas Ever. A true Christmas original. What Christmas would be complete without a bit of Michael Buble. Photo: Noam Galai/ Getty Images.
Phil Spector – A Christmas Gift for You From Phil Spector (1963) Despite his recent fall from grace and current incarceration, there’s no doubt that Phil Spector, creator of the ‘wall of sound’
style of recording was one of the greatest producers of all time and this – a compilation of some of his Philles Records best artists doing the Christmas thing, including The Crystals exuberant Santa Clause is Coming to Town, Ronnie Spector’s Frosty the Snowman, Darlene Love’s White Christmas and The Ronnettes Sleigh Ride – is a true Christmas pop classic.
Michael Buble – Christmas (2011) This troubadour’s first long-player foray into Christmas fare sold three million copies, back in 2011 and it’s not hard to see why. Buble and his velvety, dulcet tones croon their way effortlessly through a slew of Christmas classics including Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas, All I Want For Christmas is You, Santa Claus is Coming to Town and Santa Baby. What Christmas would be complete without a bit of Buble?
Bing Crosby – White Christmas (1945) Given that Crosby’s rendition of Irving Berlin’s White Christmas is the most popular song in history, it’s not too much of a stretch to say that Christmas wouldn’t be the same without Bing. This album, released in 1945, features some classic duets with the Andrews Sisters and Carole Richards. While the title track is the obvious standout, tracks like Mele Kalikimaka and Santa Claus is Coming to Town shine just as brightly. - Stephen Bisset

Fee Madigan believes that there should be no barriers to creativity. It is this belief that prompted her, eight years ago to start Art Mania Studio. Art Mania runs a wide and eclectic range of art classes and workshops – from kids’ classes and glass fusing, to painting and up-cycled vintage jewellery. Fee told Newcastle Weekly that a sea-change, eight years ago, prompted her to start the business. “I used to work in the corporate sphere in Alice Springs and I ended up spending a long weekend in Newcastle and thought ‘that’s it, I’m moving here’,” she said. “Leaving the corporate world high and dry, I was interested in re-connecting with my own creative process and thought it was also a good opportunity to offer others the chance to explore their creativity.” Fee added that Art Mania was all about promoting creativity in a safe, fun and supportive environment and there was an over-arching theme of inclusion. “Art Mania is about creativity, it’s about inclusion – no matter what a person’s ability level is or what challenges they may have in life,” she said. “We’ve had a number of people come to our classes who have issues with mental health,

depression and disability, and we believe that art has a great ability to inspire and build confidence. “Our target age range is primary school kids from four or five years old right through to…we have a lady at the moment doing a stained-glass class with us who is 89, so anyone can come along and have a go.” Fee said that Art Mania was always on the lookout for community groups who wish to have targeted art programs specifically tailor-made for their organisation and they have quite a robust program to keep the kids entertained these school holidays, as well.

NEVER FINITE AT CAVES BEACH Finite Gallery originally opened in 2013, in an unused service station, in the picturesque Lake Macquarie suburb of Caves Beach. It was transformed into a unique, bustling art gallery by the imagination and hard work of Newcastle artist Leslie Duffin. When the gallery was forced to move or close due to development, many of the gallery’s regulars rallied to help locate new premises, but it was by good fortune that a couple from Sydney came to the rescue. They offered Leslie the lease of a beautiful light-filled space, set-up perfectly for an art gallery

Supporting both emerging and established artists through the professional exhibition of their artworks, and local makers by stocking handmade products in her gallery shop. For the most part, the gallery is filled with an everchanging display of work which can be purchased and taken away on the day, unlike most independent galleries, which have fixed exhibition times. However, occasionally the gallery will present fixed exhibitions, such as the current display of paintings by The Caves Beach Genteel Ladies and Tea Society (Susan Berryman, Janelle Goldman, Anne-Marie Hall and Karen Tipper), which ends on Sunday 18 December. The four artists have all been painting weekly under the direction of established Newcastle artist, John Morris at Finite Gallery, and have come together for their first group exhibition.

local needlewoman retires Pat has retired to run a small cottage in the snow at Anglers Reach in Victoria, with her husband Keith, which they plan to let to youth as holiday accommodation. Born into an era where dressmaking was essential, and sewing was routinely taught in home economics classes at school; Pat learnt to sew at the tender age of 12. “It became very much a passion of mine,�
she said. Before long, Pat turned her passion into a career. She worked for other alterations businesses in Newcastle, until the 1989 earthquake hit and damaged the shop in which she was working. This gave her the motivation to open up her own shop on King Street, and, a year later, she moved into the City Arcade on Hunter Street, where Pat’s Stitchery has been for the past 26 years. “I’ve had lots of returning customers, some who’ve been coming to me for close to 20 years,� Pat said. “Others who’ve left Newcastle look me up again when they return.

lot of lovely people come through my doors over the years; I will miss them.� Over the years, Pat has seen just about as many fashion trends come and go as she has customers. From broad-breasted, baggy clothing and padded shoulders to mid-riffs and short, fitted clothing – Pat has seen it all. And while Pat has now retired – albeit to pursue another venture – she’s not about to give up sewing altogether. She said she would continue to sew mementos for the cottage’s patrons. Pat’s Stitchery remains open for business under new owners; however, it will undergo a name change in the new year, to Altem Stitches.

NEW YEAR, NEW YOU For whatever reason, we are more likely to set a new goal and stick to it at the beginning of a new week – or a new year; there’s just something about wiping the slate clean that makes it easier. With 2017 fast approaching, you might be thinking about new year’s resolutions. Are you hoping to get fitter and healthier? Have you got a nasty habit you’d like to kick, such as smoking or biting your nails? Or perhaps you just want to be kinder toward others. Whatever your goal, there are certain steps you can take to help you stick to it. • Pick a single resolution. Sometimes we get over-ambitious and try to do it all. If you haven’t already successfully put multiple goals into action, the turn of the new year isn’t likely to change anything. Pick a single goal, and stick to it. • Be specific. ‘I’d like to get healthier’ is probably too broad a statement. Set specific goals, like eliminating or reducing your fast food intake. That way, you’ll be breaking your bigger goal down into smaller, more achievable steps. You’ll be on your way to a healthier you in no time. • Remember to look back and see how far you’ve come. Goal-setting works best when we reward ourselves – but not with naughty treats!

small spaces, big impact
There’s just something about small spaces that inspires Newcastle interior designer Louise Hatcher. WITH HOME EDITOR, GEORGIA OSLAND
Sydney, travelling to and from the city and working on a number of Newcastle projects, including Queen’s Wharf Brewery and The Edwards bar and restaurant. Then, about two years ago, she made the bold decision to start her own business, Louise Hatcher Styling. With a hint of Scandinavian influence, and a lot of her own personal flair, Louise styles homes for sellers, ‘stayers’ (people redesigning existing homes), and ‘starters’ – older couples who are designing their last home. Based on past projects, Louise says styling a home before it is sold can add between $40,000 and $60,000 to the sale price. When it comes to sourcing materials and furnishings, Louise’s motto is: ‘buy once and buy it well’, meaning, invest once in good quality items that will last a long time. And, while she’s not one to follow trends or buy mass-produced materials, preferring, instead, to buy handmade, vintage and one-off items; Louise says IKEA is her go-to for unique designs.

She grasps, with both hands, the challenge of creating beautiful, functional spaces and maximising flow within the constraints of four walls. Louise’s affinity for minimalism is owed mostly to time she spent living in Japan and Denmark when she was younger. “I’ve always been fascinated by how other people live,” the Lambton mumof-two said. “The Japanese only live with what they need – small, decluttered spaces bring them clarity. “Denmark, being quite a dark country, has such an emphasis on natural light and beautiful architecture, but again, their homes are small, because there are farms everywhere.” While this inspiration struck Louise in her formative years, it wasn’t until she and her husband, Andrew, started renovating their beautiful old home in Lambton, about 10 years ago, that she unearthed a passion for interior design. She started small, working for a boutique interior design firm in
Newcastle interior designer Louise Hatcher inside a New Lambton home she recently styled for sale.
LOUISE’S SUMMER STYLING TIPS • Take the opportunity to declutter • As with your wardrobe, pack your home – less is more. Paring away heavier items such as everything right make makes for blankets and drapes. Sheer easy summer living. curtains and linen fabrics work wonderfully in summer. • Make use of natural light. We get lighting all wrong in • Bring the outdoors in, with Australia; we chuck in downlights indoor plants. This will help everywhere. Often, when I’m create an open, summery feel styling a room, I have to fix the throughout your home. lighting before anything else.
in the garden Alternatives to spraying
IN THE GARDEN JUDY SHARPE
Now that summer has arrived, the pests will as well, with gardeners seeking alternatives to spraying. It is a little mythical to think that planting basil near tomatoes will prevent fruit fly. To prevent any type of pest attack you will need to build a barrier wall of herbs such as basil. This is a pretty one to try - plant out a border of marigolds. I know orange isn’t a popular colour, but marigolds also can be found in yellow, and these hardy annuals also help combat nematodes, for which there is no cure.
Encourage ladybirds, as they eat 400 aphids in a week. Oregano is a great herb to grow amongst cabbages and broccoli to keep pests away. One of the easiest herbs to grow is parsley. Not only does it add great flavour to food, it keeps away the aphids that love to attack new growth. It actually looks fantastic planted as a border in front of white petunias. To stimulate a lush, green colour, my secret recipe is to add a little blood and bone to the parsley as it grows.
This week • Apply Flourish each week to encourage annuals to flower for Christmas. • Watch for bullet disease on passionfruit beginning to produce. This demonstrates as knobbly, distorted fruit. • Thin out beetroot, carrot, lettuce and parsnip seedlings grown from seed. This will make each plant stronger.

PICK OF THE WEEK Friday, NBN, 9.15pm, M (2014) Director McG followed his big-ticket blockbusters Charlie’s Angels and Terminator Salvation with this similarly high-octane actioner. Retired international spy Ethan Renner (Kevin Costner, above) is dying when he is given one last assignment in return for an experimental drug that could save his life. It’s loud, brash and exactly what you’d expect from The Transporter and Taken writer Luc Besson, but the French and Serbian filming locations at least give an interesting backdrop. Bombshell Amber Heard co-stars.
Friday
Old School
Non-Stop
3 Days To Kill
Saturday, NBN, 9.15pm, M (2014) After plane-set flicks such as Red Eye and Flight came this Liam Neesonbacked actioner. The plot lacks sense, but does it matter when you have an edge-of-your seat ride? Neeson plays an unstable, alcoholic air marshall who receives text messages from an unknown villain threatening the London to New York flight he is on, unless the airline transfers $150 million into an offshore account. Julianne Moore (above) plays a passenger and confidante, while Michelle Dockery (Downton Abbey) and Lupita Nyong (12 Years a Slave) are gutsy stewardesses.
Sunday, GO!, 9.30pm, MA15+ (2003) Todd Phillips, the director who gave us the uproariously funny The Hangover first brought us this surprisingly memorable tale of three 30-something pals (Luke Wilson, Vince Vaughn and a show-stealing Will Ferrell, right) who try to shake off the shackles of marriage and careers by starting their own college frat house. Despite the KY Jelly wrestling and inevitable pants-down pranks, Old School is more than just a slew of familiar gross-out gags.

Female friends will help Bridgit sort out her priorities and start to crystalise her goals and ambitions for the year ahead. She may not have all the answers, but a chat with her most sensible of friends and colleagues will go a long way towards clearing her head. The world of romance is especially attractive now, but she mustn’t cling to the past because of guilt or misplaced loyalty.

With Mercury turning retrograde on the 20th you need to be selective of what you and the family do; taking on too much will only exhaust yourself. Business and pleasure intertwine and a chance encounter or new connection will feel like serendipity at play.
Mercury retrograde on the 20th warns you to tread lightly with loved ones and associates as disagreements are likely as you won’t appreciate others telling you how to live your life. Be diplomatic in trying to persuade them you know what’s best for your own wellbeing.
Long-lost relatives or friends from your past may re-enter your life; they are likely to be feeling somewhat vulnerable so avoid pushing a friend beyond their limits, be gentle with them. With nostalgic stars blazing brightly, you will be spending time revisiting the past.
Stop procrastinating and focus on tying up loose ends in order to start 2017 fresh. With beneficial influences from both Venus and Neptune, your chart is full of possibilities. If you want to ask a favour or discuss a tricky topic with a superior or loved one, just do it!
TAURUS APR 21 – MAY 21
LEO JUL 23 – AUG 23
SCORPIO OCT 24 – NOV 22
AQUARIUS JAN 21 – FEB 19
Mercury retrograde indicates that if you have travel plans, be certain to check out all modes of transport and times of connections, as delays of all types are likely. Also avoid taking yourself too seriously and focus on creating a light-hearted atmosphere.
Focus on being creative with decorations and Christmas cards and on being the host/hostess with the mostest. If you’re out socialising, it would be a good idea to catch a taxi, because despite your best intentions you're bound to drink and eat too much.
If you're trying to be healthier, focus on ditching bad habits and keep an eye out for an inspirational book. On a professional level you're becoming more efficient with both your time and money, but don't waste energy trying to cajole others; they'll join in their own time.
Mercury is retrograde and it’ll be necessary to avoid negative thinking; a pep talk with a trusted friend will set you straight. This is the ideal time to rein in your bad habits, so focus on improving your diet. If that sweet tooth has flared, restock your pantry healthily.
GEMINI MAY 22 – JUNE 21
VIRGO AUG 24 – SEPT 23
SAGITTARIUS NOV 23 – DEC 21
PISCES FEB 20 – MAR 20
If you've been feeling tired or rundown, a quick detox might be just the tonic you need. Instead of overindulging in food or drink at the slightest provocation why not declutter your wardrobe. Consider a gentle exercise program or go for walks with the family dog or friends.
This is an ideal time to socialise. You will be feeling confident and can look forward to plenty of good chats and a few startling revelations. If you’re looking for Christmas presents listen to your intuition and you’re sure to nab a few bargains.
Saturn the disciplinarian remains in your sign on 21 December and will force you to get your finances and health into order. You will no longer be able to drift along making the same old mistakes; the lessons you learn will be of accountability and responsibility.
Some much anticipated news will bring a fortuitous gain, so get that bubbly on ice! For singles, be careful of mixing work and play. Mercury is retrograde so watch your Ps and Qs when discussing sensitive subjects with loved ones, otherwise you could cause offense.
