Thieves target charity VOLUNTEERS are dismayed at the thefts of donated goods from the Southern Peninsula Community Fund Op Shop.

They estimate up to $20,000 has been lost to thieves who regularly target the shop after hours, stealing goods left by generous donors.

Photographs have been taken of the cars they say are being used by the thieves who probably sell the goods at Sunday markets, online or at garage sales.

In doing so, the thieves are depriving the shop of income it donates to community causes and clothing that could be bought at low cost by needy people and families.

Police have been given details of the suspect vehicles, but are powerless unless they can catch the thieves in the act.

RACV puts brake on roo cull Mike Hast mike@mpnews.com.au RACV head office moved quickly to stop the culling of kangaroos at its Cape Schanck resort last week after complaints from neighbours.

A couple who live in the adjacent estate were walking two dogs on leads on a concrete path just before 7am last Thursday when they saw a spooked

kangaroo hopping rapidly beside the third fairway then across the fourth and into bush bordering Cape Schanck Rd near the fifth hole.

Seconds later John Henshaw and his wife saw two men emerge from bushes where the third and fourth holes blend. “One had a large rifle with telescopic sights, a bipod [two-legged gun stand] and a very large silencer,� Mr Henshaw told The News.

The men climbed in to a golf course maintenance vehicle and drove off toward the course workshop.

Mr Henshaw reported the incident to the golf course pro shop as well as Rosebud police.

Later in the morning he was called by the resort’s acting manager, Allison McCrindle, who said the RACV had permission to kill kangaroos because, she said, there “had been an attack� but

would not elaborate.

Mr Henshaw speculated that an incident several months ago may have led to the proposed cull. A woman was riding a bike with her dog off lead.

The dog had encountered a kangaroo, which had turned on it and chased it, distressing the woman. “These kangaroos are protected in principle and are harmless in practice.

Football club eyes on new ovals Mike Hast mike@mpnews.com.au DROMANA Football and Netball Club wants in on a plan to develop a section of Crown land on Boundary Rd, Dromana, into an adventure park.

The senior and junior sections of the club have been seeking more ovals for several years as its ground off Pier St – Dromana Recreation Reserve – is at capacity.

Next season the club will have 15 teams playing at the reserve – 11 junior teams (including two girls’ sides) and four senior teams, including a proposed women’s team.

Thirteen teams played there this year.

A second girls’ team and the women’s team will be added for 2016.

Football club president Mark Crawshaw told The News the recently released proposal to develop a $6 million adventure park at 161-191 Boundary Rd – land managed by Parks Victoria on behalf of the state and known as Parkdale Estate – should have at least one football ground and a soccer pitch.

“Land for sports is limited in the area. It is the council’s responsibility to provide more facilities for young people with all the benefits that this would bring,” he said.

The adventure park concept is be-

ing promoted by a group of entrepreneurs led by Stephen Todd. The group wants to build a network of mountain bike trails, pedestrian and dog walking paths, fitness area, hall and car park.

The land is on the Arthurs Seat escarpment between Hillview Community Reserve and Hillview Quarries’ old Pioneer quarry, which itself is subject to a development proposal (“Hillview seeks new quarry”, The News, 1/9/15).

Mornington Peninsula Shire and Parks Victoria have had sporadic discussions over almost two years about a land swap of Parkdale Estate and a shire reserve known as Concept Spur, 55 hectares west of Purves Rd between

Seamists Drive and Waterfall Gully Rd, and adjacent to Seawinds Gardens.

Concept Spur was given to the Shire of Flinders in 1974 when a developer subdivided the land for homes.

Last Friday, Mr Crawshaw said he and other club officials heard about the adventure park from Stephen Todd at last week’s meeting of the Association for Building Community in Dromana (ABCD).

“We had a brief discussion with Mr Todd and told him about our wish list of two sporting grounds. His architect said there would have to be a seven-storey cut into the slope to create enough level ground but we think

MPs backed Abbott, welcome Turnbull Neil Walker neil@mpnews.com.au TONY Abbott was ousted as prime minister last week by his Liberal Party colleagues but local federal MPs Bruce Billson and Greg Hunt remained loyal to Mr Abbott until the end.

Both confirmed they voted for the former prime minister in the party room ballot won by challenger Malcolm Turnbull 55-44 last Monday evening (14 September).

Bruce Billson, the member for Dunkley and until Sunday, the Small Business Minister, said last week the Abbott government was “getting plenty of good things done but there wasn’t a sense that was being conveyed well and clearly to the electorate”.

“We’re two years into a three-year term and my colleagues felt a change in captain-coach would be a sensible thing to do,” he said.

“I voted for Tony Abbott. Being a cabinet minister brings with it an additional level of responsibility to work with and support the prime minister.

“I take that responsibility seriously and it might be a little old-fashioned but I’m a great believer that you go home with those who brought you to the dance and felt that was the right and proper and honourable thing to do.”

Environment Minister Greg Hunt, the member for Flinders, also believed cabinet loyalty is important.

“I supported Malcolm Turnbull when I was a member of Mr Turnbull’s shadow cabinet in 2009 and equally, as a matter of deep personal principle and duty, I remained loyal to Mr Abbott as a member of his cabinet and voted accordingly,” he said in a statement provided to The News.

The local cabinet members’ sense of loyalty to their leader last week was not shared by several of their cabinet colleagues, including Julie Bishop and Christopher Pyne, who sided with Mr Turnbull in the leadership ballot.

Mr Billson hoped the Coalition government

could now put internal divisions over leadership to bed and get on with governing the country.

“I think Malcolm Turnbull has made it quite clear that he and our team start from a solid foundation of good achievements and positive momentum on the economy, on jobs, on security and a range of policy fronts but he’s indicated a particular focus on preparing our nation, our economy and our citizens for the future.”

Mr Hunt congratulated Mr Turnbull “on becoming the 29th Prime Minister of Australia”.

“Prime Minister Turnbull has already said he intends to keep our climate change policies and targets,” Mr Hunt said.

“Right now our focus is on the future. We are focused on the economy, jobs and security.

We are focused on delivering Australia the good government it deserves.”

Mr Billson admitted some constituents were “were quite sad with the way Prime Minister Abbott was dealt with” by his Liberal Party colleagues and “felt if there was to be a change they would rather that was done at the ballot box” but he said others had contacted his office in the past few days to “recognise the need for change”.

“They realised we could not risk a change of government and Bill Shorten and the CFMEU running the country,” he said.

Mr Abbott was deposed as prime minister by his party just under two years after winning the 2013 federal election.

His time in office was marred by controversy including broken pre-election promises including funding cuts to education and hospitals and a first federal budget deemed by many to be unfair on lower and middle-income earners.

Opinion polls consistently showed the Abbott government was unpopular with voters after being elected.

Mr Turnbull announced a reshuffled cabinet on Sunday (20 September). Mr Billson lost his cabinet post as Small Business Minister to Kelly O’Dwyer but Mr Hunt remained Environment Minister.

part of the land close to Boundary Rd – known as Pat’s Paddock opposite Collins Rd – would need less cutting if a retaining wall was used,” he said. “Mr Todd said he was happy to work with the club.”

The adventure park plan was too limited as it currently existed, Mr Crawshaw said.

Clubs in the Nepean League needed at least two footy grounds. Rye was in the same boat as it too would have a new women’s team next season, he said. Mr Crawshaw said the AFL South East commission’s development manager Cam Roberts was interested in the potential new oval.

NDIS starts 2018 THE National Disability Insurance Scheme will be introduced on the Mornington Peninsula from 1 April 2018.

Roll out plans for Victoria were announced last week with the first places in the state to receive the scheme from next July.

Community services organisation Karingal currently offers a range of disability services on the peninsula as well as in the Barwon, Wyndham and southwest Victoria regions, supporting more than 2000 people.

It was part of the Barwon region trial, which has become a template for the NDIS in Australia, and will expand its services on the peninsula including showing residents on how to prepare for the scheme.

Brandon Howard of Karingal said 105,000 Victorians would benefit.

“The NDIS will empower people with a disability to ultimately lead a more fulfilling life, providing independence, opportunity and a greater inclusion within their community,” he said. “We will be scheduling information sessions on the peninsula to pass on our knowledge and experience.”

Come ‘n Try Day

Mr Turnbull will now keep an eye on opinion polls and could decide to call an election before January 2017 if the Coalition’s political fortunes improve under his prime ministership.

A FREE Senior Victorian Come and Try Day will be held at Camp Manyung, Mt Eliza, 10am-1pm, Monday 5 October.

A range of fun and exciting activities are planned.

“Our goal is to try and get senior Victorians outdoors and be active while having fun with each other,” program officer Kiandra Patterson said.

“We were hoping our event will help senior Victorians get active.”

Seniors can reserve a ticket for the day by calling 9788 1100.

Rye tip to close in three years David Harrison david@mpnews.com.au COUNCILLORS have taken a decisive step towards closing Mornington Peninsula Shire’s last rubbish tip, at Rye, after a long campaign to send all kerbside waste out of the municipality.

At their 14 September meeting, councillors resolved not to extend Rye landfill but to close the controversial Truemans Rd site from 30 June, 2018, conditional on what appears to be an easily met condition.

This condition is that the shire seeks expressions of interest by 14 December for kerbside waste disposal at a

site “other than at the Rye landfill�.

A site in Hallam Rd, Hampton Park, some half-hour from the peninsula, is considered a strong possibility.

No other site is available on the peninsula after the Environment Protection Authority’s refusal in 2013 to permit rubbish dumping at the disused Pioneer quarry at Arthurs Seat.

Councillors approved an amended motion, moved by Cr Hugh Fraser and seconded by Cr Anne Shaw, that included: ď Ž Seeking expressions of interest for moving waste off the peninsula. ď Ž Continuing the shire’s commitment to alternative waste technology,

possibly including high-temperature incineration of waste. ď Ž Expanding the weekly opt-in green waste service to include food. ď Ž Introducing a weekly summer recycling service. ď Ž Extending the free green waste weekend service to include the preceding Friday.

Councillors also approved deferring the shire’s waste and resource strategy to enable the expressions of interest process to proceed.

This resolution replaced the officers’ recommendation that Rye landfill be developed in stages “until an [alternative waste technology] is identified�.

years, compared with between $36.44 and $52.01 a household for full or partdevelopment of Rye landfill.

It also stated that 65 per cent of the additional $6.5 million budgeted for waste would go to extending Rye. The shire ran its own waste management strategy until a few years ago, when it lost its battle for independence and became part of the Metropolitan Waste Management Group.

Its policy, to keep shire waste in the shire, was defended with dire warnings of the distance – and cost – of taking shire rubbish more than 100 kilometres to Werribee or to slightly closer landfills at Sunshine or Deer Park.

No such technology appears to be imminent and would likely only result from a state government initiative because of cost.

The report to councillors stated that 28 complaints about tip odour had been received since early June after a letterbox drop at the 2300 houses within 1.5 kilometres of the landfill publicised the establishment of a hotline.

The shire developed the hotline and an “odour surveillance program� in consultation with the EPA. The report to councillors calculated that moving waste off the peninsula would cost between $55.88 and $58.38 a household at current prices over 30

– to spend $2.25 million on the Jetty Rd foreshore precinct including a proposed boardwalk on top of the sandbags and stormwater pipes.

In April, Len Warfe of Port Phillip Conservation Council said there was ample evidence that groynes interrupted natural coastal processes. “An excellent example is at the site in question – the stormwater pipes act as a groyne, trapping sand to the west and depleting sand to the east where the sandbag wall was built in 2009. Similar examples of groynes failing to per-

form as beach stabilisers exist around Port Phillip.�

Earlier that month, shire coastal planner Neil Daykin told councillors the sandbag wall was built to limit the erosion of the fill area as well as dispersal of rubble material.

It had been suggested the sandbag wall and fill should be removed to restore the beach to its natural state but this could cost $400,000 or more. “This cost would vary significantly if the fill material is found to be contaminated or unsuitable for alternative

Point multi-storey development on the beach side of Point Nepean Rd and Jetty Rd (opposite the pizza shop) and 2000 cubic metres is from a sand spit west of the stormwater drains at the western end of the beach.

The fresh sand has created a beach 170 metres long and 15 metres wide, and covers most of the sandbag wall as well as rocks and rubble from foreshore filling work done in the 1970s, which had been exposed.

The beach work is connected to shire plans â&#x20AC;&#x201C; known as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Project Rosebudâ&#x20AC;?

THE new section of Rosebud pier, officially opened two weeks ago with little fanfare by Parks Victoria, complements nearby beach renourishment completed at about the same time by the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning.

Parks has spent about $3.5 million on the 329-metre long pier in two tranches between 2009 and this year, while the state environment department has spent about $500,000 in two lots to replenish the beach.

The first attempt was in mid-2009 when contractors built a sandbag wall on the eroded shoreline and placed imported sand between it and the water.

The sand disappeared in April 2009 when storms and high tides blasted the beach as well as others around Port Phillip. The sandbag wall, or revetment, survived the battering.

The vandal-proof revetment consists of six levels, three below low tide and three above, and is designed to last 15 years.

The project cost $250,000 in 2009 and the department claimed it would create a beach 160 metres long by 10 metres wide. It did but nature took it away.

This time environment department contractors have placed 5000 tonnes of sand on the beach and built three groynes designed to keep sand in place. One groyne is right next to the pier on the eastern side and two stretch into the water from the â&#x20AC;&#x153;newâ&#x20AC;? beach.

About 3000 cubic metres of sand came from excavation of the Banksia

uses,â&#x20AC;? he told councillors.

Mr Daykin was quoting from a report prepared late last year by Alex Atkins, former director of infrastructure: â&#x20AC;&#x153;It may be noted that there appear to have been two eras of filling of the foreshore in proximity to the Rosebud pier â&#x20AC;&#x201C; one with relatively clean fill from the construction of Mornington Peninsula Freeway and one associated with a sewerage installation program, which appears to be the source of the rubble material that continues to be a problem.â&#x20AC;?

Earlier this year the shire received two petitions from residents â&#x20AC;&#x201C; one calling for the removal of the sandbag wall and fill (signed by 76 people) and one calling for the opposite (131 signatures).

The shire council backed the environment department plan to keep the sandbags and replenish the beach.

Proposed shire works to come include a new play area, â&#x20AC;&#x153;public plaza and waterfront deckâ&#x20AC;?, promenade, paths, fitness stations, sprint track, and â&#x20AC;&#x153;event servicing placeâ&#x20AC;?.

Foreshore â&#x20AC;&#x153;protectorâ&#x20AC;? Jenny Warfe, who lead opposition to the Port of Melbourneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Channel Deepening Project of 2008-09, says the shireâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plan for the precinct is â&#x20AC;&#x153;another giant waste of ratepayersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; moneyâ&#x20AC;?.

She said it made no sense to build â&#x20AC;&#x153;hard infrastructure in an area where, to get lasting solutions, nature needs to be restoredâ&#x20AC;?. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The reason there is no beach is because the natural beach is buried under 55,000 cubic metres of fill dumped there in the 1970s from the freeway and trunk sewer construction.â&#x20AC;?

Cull called off

THE man hired to shoot kangaroos at the RACV’s Cape Schanck golf club early last Thursday morning says he had a valid government permit.

Leigh Swan of Rosebud, a professional shooter for 30 years, was the centre of controversy on Friday when news of the cull hit the airwaves. He is angry his actions drew so much negative publicity – especially on talk-back radio.

Mr Swan said he had a big male kangaroo in his sights and was considering his options when his day was abruptly brought to a premature end.

“I want to get the story correct: I’ve had about 40 emails and about 50 texts and it’s been a big day,” he told The News last Friday afternoon.

“I did not take a shot at the roos.

“When they saw me they took off. I took the clip out and put the gun down because there was a house in the background.

“I am disgusted because I have been reading so much crap about this. I’ve read that people saw me shoot [at the roos] but I did not fire a shot.

“Safety is paramount and I do not fire crap shots. I know the greenies don’t like it but it’s my job – and I do a lot of golf courses.

“I had been planning the cull for two days and was just trying to finish the job.

“I don’t want to get into the politics of this; I am distressed because people are lying about it and I have already seen my solicitor.”

Mr Swan said had been contracted by RACV

resort management and regarded the cull as just another day on the job. “I do most of the professional shooting on the Mornington Peninsula,” he said.

“My aim was to take out the big male because he has five females and, in the next year or so, there will be 12 or more roos.

“They will do a lot of damage and the male is a monster. I saw them sunning themselves and that’s when I wanted to get the big bugger.”

Mr Swan said he had spoken with golf course management about “our options”.

“If we don’t get rid of the big male there will be trouble in future,” he said.

Kangaroo shooter angry at fallout

FR

Cull anger: John Henshaw and his dog Izzy being filmed by Melbourne TV stations at the RACV resort in Cape Schanck last Friday afternoon. RACV management in Melbourne has said the cull will not occur. Picture: Yanni

Continued from Page 1 Irene Wyld, chair of Moonah Estate Owners Corporation, said the incident occurred in a residential area near where “a number of us walk early in the morning”.

“Many other golf courses throughout Australia have kangaroos roaming the fairways – there is no rational reason why the RACV should be allowed to shoot any kangaroos on this particular golf course,” she said.

“There has not been one word of communication to residents in regard to this attempted cull.”

Another resident, Phil Gleadhill, used Twitter to complain about the incident and received a reply from the organisation: “RACV alarmed to hear of Cape Schanck cull permit. Unauthorised

by HQ and stopped immediately, no roos believed harmed.”

On Friday, the RACV’s southern resorts general manager, Mark Bennetts, emailed some residents: “We ... learned today that a permit had been obtained to cull some kangaroos at the resort. This was a total surprise to us, was not an approved activity and has been stopped immediately. We understand that no kangaroos have been killed.”

He later issued a statement to The News: “RACV can confirm that a permit was obtained to cull six kangaroos at its Cape Schanck resort after local residents and golf playing guests reported aggressive behaviour by kangaroos in this area.

“The permit was obtained by a staff member without authorisation. As soon as RACV management was advised, a directive to cease all activity was immediately issued. As far as we are aware, no kangaroos have been harmed.

“We apologise for any alarm or distress caused by this unauthorised action.”

The Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning reportedly confirmed a permit was issued late last month to cull a “small number” of kangaroos at the resort.

A spokesman said the permit was granted after reports of aggressive kangaroos attacking people and dogs.

Councils align for port at Hastings Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au THE environmental health of Port Phillip and job creation are major arguments being used by Mornington Peninsula and Frankston councils to justify a second container port being built at Hastings.

In submissions to a select committee into the lease of the Port of Melbourne the two councils have lined up with other bayside municipalities wanting to protect the bay.

The shire, Frankston and Greater Dandenong are also part of the South East Melbourne (SEMS) group of councils lobbying to expand the Port of Hastings.

At least one member of SEMS, the Shire of Bass Coast, is less enthusiastic and wants to see economic, environmental and social impact studies before any decisions are made about building a container port at Hastings.

Landlocked Greater Dandenong - where “inland ports have been proposed - is concentrating solely on saying there should be no delays in proceeding with plans to develop Western Port.

“While the current focus is on the Port of Melbourne, it would be poor policy not to start thinking ahead about what else will be needed to guarantee south-east Melbourne’s freight future,” Greater Dandenong mayor Cr Sean O’Reilly said.

His council wanted to make sure a second container port was ready to start operating as soon as the Port of Melbourne hit capacity. That meant

Port in waiting: The number of ships coming int the Port of Hastings hovers around 50 a year and is likely to stay that way unless it is developed as the state’s next container port. Picture: Gary Sisons

that planning and construction “should be timed to run seamlessly”.

“The development of a second container port at Hastings would provide Melbourne’s industrial heartland across Greater Dandenong and the south-eastern suburbs with the efficient freight and transport services it needed to remain globally competitive, and to grow jobs,” Cr O’Reilly said.

The councils are concerned that the state government’s proposed lease of the Port of Melbourne provides for compensation if a second container port is built.

Before it was elected last November Labor also outlined plans to build a new port at Bay West, inside Port Phillip just north of Geelong.

Since its election Labor has said it wants Hastings increasingly used as a bulk port, for natural gas, petroleum products and, possibly, coal.

The question of just where the state’s second port should be built has been referred to the newly created Infrastructure Victoria.

Frankston mayor Cr Sandra Mayer says having a compensation clause in the Port of Melbourne lease “would be

the nail in the coffin for the proposed expansion of the Port of Hastings”.

“Frankston City currently has 15year high unemployment of 8.3 per cent. The Andrews’ Government’s current position is very unwelcome for Frankston City and our neighbouring areas, some of which have unemployment of up to 12 per cent,” Cr Mayer said.

Frankston has been promoting itself as the logical “commercial hub” for an expanded Port of Hastings.

Cr Mayer said Hastings was “the ideal” location for a container port.

She said Frankston’s submission to the select committee “highlights the need for the state government to enter into discussions about alternative opportunities to stimulate the economy in the south east”.

“Council would also like to see a commitment made to the protection of Port Phillip and its natural environment.”

Mornington Peninsula Shire’s submission states that previous channel deepening had “caused demonstrable physical loss and damage to this shire and to its beaches, natural assets and economy”.

However, the shire did not offer any meaningful opposition to the 2004 channel deepening, except to say it would be opposed if there was damage to the environment.

Now, it is listing environmental damage as one of its main arguments against further channel deepening and dredging at The Heads.

It says it supported the channel deepening because it recognised it would “provide international competitiveness” of the Port of Melbourne for another 30 years.

The Port of Melbourne refuted claims that channel deepening had led to the erosion of Portsea beach.

The shire’s submission also claims “a wider loss to the shire and its economy in the failure to proceed with the development of the Port of Hastings”.

The shire says the consequences of not having sufficient container port capacity when the Port of Melbourne reaches capacity (“by mid-2020s”) will be “severe” on the economies of Victoria, Melbourne’s south east and Gippsland.

Callous thieves steal op shopâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s stock Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au THIEVES have stolen an estimated $20,000 worth of donated goods from the Southern Peninsula Community Fund Op Shop.

At least three vehicles have been photographed making regular raids on goods left outside the shop overnight.

The thefts over the past 12 months has short-changed the long-serving Rye charity of money needed for worthy projects and denied needy families and customers of affordable clothing and bric-a-brac.

The shopâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s management has put up posters showing registration numbers and photographs of three vehicles regularly seen pillaging stock.

One couple have been stealing the lot and then returning the following night to bring back goods they did not want.

The shopâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s managers believed the stolen items are sold at weekend markets, online and at garage sales.

Op shop president Graham Fitzgerald admitted the charity had been having â&#x20AC;&#x153;a disastrous time with thievesâ&#x20AC;?. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are appealing to the public to help us catch them or stop them because they are ruining business for us. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not just a few bob they are stealing, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s getting to be a lot of money and that money is supposed to be going

back into the community.â&#x20AC;?

It is believed the thieves usually arrive at the shop at about 7pm, when a vehicle parked out the back would not arouse suspicion.

One lot of thieves wear torches on their caps to make it easier to rummage through the donated clothing.

The shop - affiliated with the Southern Peninsula Community Fund - has a history of solid fundraising, including donating more than $500,000 to the Rosebud hospital for its CT scanner.

Upgraded security measures, including CCTV cameras, have been marginally successful. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We put up the cameras when they were getting out of control, but they lasted only two nights before someone snipped the wires,â&#x20AC;? Mr Fitzgerald said.

A camera designed to operate without wires was provided by Rosebud police but it lasted just three days before being vandalised. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have a big bin where we prefer people to deposit donated goods, but it is easier for people to drive around the back and that makes it easier for the thieves,â&#x20AC;? Mr Fitzgerald said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we put a big padlock on the gate maybe the thieves would distribute all the stock around the car park. And, when weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got generous volunteers putting in their time, yet their first job is cleaning up the mess with the eyes picked out of everything, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s upset-

ting.â&#x20AC;?

Mr Fitzgerald said a volunteer had found a woman in her 60s on the ground beside her trailer after apparently falling while stealing donations about. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The volunteer helped her to her feet and took down her carâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s registration number before she drove off,â&#x20AC;? Mr Fitzgerald said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have discussed all our options with the police, such as putting notices up for customers to please drop of their goods during business hours, but so far we are up against it.â&#x20AC;?

Leading Senior Constable Scott Hanley, of Sorrento police, admitted being hampered by grey areas in the law. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At what point does ownership of the stock transfer over?â&#x20AC;? he asked. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a tough one.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;They need a gate or a chute where people can slide their donations, to keep it away from thieves. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We patrol there regularly and, if we catch anyone stealing, they will be charged with theft and trespass if they are found on op shop property.â&#x20AC;?

The suspect cars are a white 1999 Suzuki Grand Vitara, a fawn 1999 Mitsubishi Magna and a black 2003 Renault Convertible.

Anyone with information can call Leading Senior Constable Hanley on 5986 0444 or Crime Stoppers, 1800 333 000.

Mosque leader’s peace offering to attackers Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au

Numbers are up: The Southern Peninsula Community Fund Op Shop has made up posters of vehicles it believes can help police inquiries into thefts of donated goods. The posters are being displayed in the Point Nepean Rd, Rye, shop.

Although police can track the vehicle owners, they are hampered by a grey area of the law relating to the transfer of ownership of the goods.

IN a show of peace that reflects a main tenet of the Ahmadiyyan Islamic sect, the leader of a mosque in Langwarrin has shared a meal with the father of a young man who allegedly attacked members of his congregation.

A 61-year-old man was admitted to hospital with a broken nose and other injuries after being attacked by three men who are believed to have jumped a fence to gain entry to the Bait-ul-Salam Mosque in Leisureland Drive.

Police are believed to have identified and spoken with the three alleged intruders who were described by witnesses as being aged in their early 20s, Caucasian and wearing hooded jumpers.

No charges have been laid at this stage and the leader of the mosque, Imam Syed Wadood Janud, has said he does not want retribution.

Instead, he would rather the intruders and their families and friends go to the mosque for a barbecue.

Senior Sergeant Miro Majftorovic, of Frankston CIU, said police are “working closely” with Imam Janud. ”It’s an educational process and the suspects are young, but the course of justice has to be worked through,” Senior Sergeant Majftorovic said.

The assaults at about 9pm on Friday 4 September were the latest in a series of offences against the mosque over the past two years.

In other incidents, bottles have been thrown and worshippers abused by intruders in the grounds of the mosque and sensors have been damaged on the electronic gates.

“If they ring the bell we can let them in,” mosque spokesman Aziz Bhatti said.

Mr Bhatti said Imam Janud had had lunch on Monday 14 September with the father of one of the three men allegedly involved in the latest attack at the mosque. Two police and the three victims had been among the 10 or 12 people at the lunch.

He said the victims had also said they did not want charges laid against their attackers but realised this would be a decision made by police.

“The police have called the families [of the alleged attackers] and have told us it should be seriously investigated,” Mr Bhatti said.

“If the father and police agree, we’d like to have a barbecue or an event of some sort of event if they want to come back again.”

The mosque is the Victorian headquarters of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, an Islamic movement whose members are persecuted by Muslims in some other countries, particularly Pakistan.

Following the latest incident Imam Janud said he believed three men who abused and assaulted members of the group had “probably been here before”. “[Racism has] been an ongoing issue and we have had people come in four times in the past three months,” Imam Janud said.

“But this is the first time they have confronted and assaulted our members physically and that’s why the police became involved.”

Iman Janud said a man in his 20s entered the Muslim community centre about 9pm and began “racially abusing and using indecent language and cursing” its members.

“He was asked to leave and our members followed him out but there they were met by two others and the trouble began.”

Arthurs Seat areas closed for 15 months THE summit picnic area atop Arthurs Seat and the car park at the bottom will be closed for about 15 months during the construction of the gondola ride, Parks Victoria stated last week.

Parks Victoria regional director Chris Hardman said “works to build Melbourne’s newest major tourism attraction” would start in the week beginning Monday 5 October when fences would be erected around the construction site after the spring school holidays.

“The picnic area alongside Purves and Arthurs Seat roads will be fenced off for the duration of the construction period,” he said.

“Safety fencing is there to protect contractor works and ensure visitor safety during the build, which is our top priority.”

Visitors could picnic at “the expansive and secluded Seawinds Gardens, just a short 600 metres walk from the summit picnic area”.

“Seawinds Gardens offers stunning sea views and is often visited by kangaroos.”

Mr Hardman said picnic and barbecue facilities would remain available at the main picnic area to the north (Port Phillip side) of Arthurs Seat Rd, where public toilets, playground and picnic shelter are located.

“The project provides $16 million in private investment and $1.5 million in public facility improvements in the park, and will create jobs dur-

ing construction and through the tourism industry for the term of the lease,” he said.

“I look forward to sharing the magnificent views of Port Phillip that are available from Arthurs Seat with park visitors when the gondola opens late next year.

“During the works, a number of special arrangements have been made to keep the park open to visitors.

“Building an exciting tourism attraction for the Mornington Peninsula will create some temporary visitor inconvenience during the works period.

“Parks Victoria is working closely with the lessee, Arthurs Seat Skylift Pty Ltd, and Mornington Peninsula Shire to keep the park open to visitors and curious onlookers during the works. We apologise for the inconvenience.

“At times during the construction period, public car parking areas are expected to be busy with contractor vehicles. We remain committed to maintaining as much public car parking in the park as possible.

“The lower car park at the base of Arthurs Seat will be closed throughout the construction period to allow Parks Victoria and Skylift to establish a safe work compound and construct the new gondola lower station and public facilities.”

Shire appoints new media manager FORMER Port of Hastings Development Authority manager media and communications Mark Kestigian has been appointed to the new role of manager communications and media at Mornington Peninsula Shire.

A similar role was held by Todd Trimble who this month left the shire after about 14 years.

Mr Kestigian’s previous jobs have included

marketing and communications manager of Victorian Managed Insurance Authority, senior corporate affairs executive for the Port of Melbourne Corporation during the 2008-09 channel deepening project, and project manager stakeholder relations with Nufarm Limited during the release of the first crop of genetically modified canola in 2007.

LETTERS Shire on world stage

Canning assessed

Mornington Peninsula Shire is being urged to back East Timor’s gas field claims (The News 15/9/15).

In 2009 the shire also sent two councillors to the Copenhagen, Denmark, climate change conference.

I think it should warn Russia to get out of Ukraine, broker a settlement between China and Japan over the disputed islands and demand a seat at the United Nations.

However, Cr Tim Rodgers is factually correct.

I remember how disgusted I was when Labor minister Gareth Evans signed up a deal to effectively steal the gas fields in East Timorese waters by altering the seabed boundaries, thus ensuring billions of dollars to balance the Australian budget and ensuring absolute poverty to continue for a tiny, ravaged, defenceless, helpless little country with negligible income.

A change of government here has not changed this crime.

Brian A Mitchelson, Mornington

As an undecided swinging Canning voter, I attended last Thursday’s peoples’ forum to meet the candidates.

I was very impressed with the Greens candidate Vanessa Rauland. She is highly intelligent, compassionate and very well qualified having a PhD, Master of Science and a BA. I found the LNP candidate to be a clone of Tony Abbott. Slick and aggressive and all about bombing Syria and home security. He ignored the fact that more bombing will create more refugees and he did not explain how his ambitious plan to tackle ice can be funded. Especially now that our hospitals, schools and police have suffered from Abbott cut backs with more to come.

The ALP candidate was very calm and measured.

Terry O’Shea, Halls Head, Western Australia.

Letters to the editor can be sent to The News, PO Box 588, Hastings 3915 or emailed to: team@mpnews.com.au. Letters should be kept to a maximum 300 words and include name, address and contact phone number for verification purposes.

Time to disconnect I note the letters from Peter Strickland, Balnarring (“Right to object”, 8/9/15) and Peter Holt, Somerville (“Climate for fires”) objecting to approvals granted by the Environment Minister Greg Hunt for the Carmichael coal mine in Queensland. Clearly they want the poor in India to stay in the dark, without electricity to provide the opportunity for economic development to try and achieve the level of material benefits that they enjoyed.

I assume that they have disconnected themselves from the grid and are using only solar and wind power to power their internet (and electronic communication), heating, television and heating and cooking, but only during daylight hours or when the wind blows.

They can sit in a privileged position and pontificate to deny the poor of India the potential right to a future with energy and electricity which could mean economic progress and welfare, as they certainly enjoy.

Taxing caller If, as Peter Strickland says, climate change is the responsibility of every human. He is being hypocritical if he has not totally disconnected himself from the Victorian electricity grid. Similarly Peter Holt.

Alan Reid, Sorrento

Acid threat to oxygen Ocean acidification due to rising levels of atmospheric carbon threatens not only the visible plant species but microscopic phytoplankton (some 0.002mm to 1mm) which produce more oxygen than all land plants. They are vital to maintain the earth’s atmosphere.

We know that the very fact of exposing coal, let alone burning it, creates atmospheric acid which is harmful to sea life and can kill it.

Phytoplankton, the small single celled organisms that live in the sea provide the very thing we need to breathe – oxygen.

We would be just as guilty as the politicians who are promoting the mining and export of coal, as well as destroying the oceans by dredging, if we do not do everything possible to prevent the oceans from acidification and the destruction of organisms on which the very breath of life depends.

Peter Strickland, Balnarring

A MT ELIZA woman says she was “nearly hooked” by a phone call from someone claiming to be from the Australian Taxation Office.

Kate Hardy said the credible female caller – who knew her name and phone number – called last Thursday saying she owed $4789 and had “better pay promptly to avoid jail”.

The woman even used the word “criminal” in the conversation to emphasise the seriousness of the supposed taxation breach.

“She was very believable, even though she did not speak English well,” Ms Hardy said.

Police referred The News to Scamwatch and the ACCC as well as the police site Acorn.com. au which refers to tactics to combat e-crimes.

GREAT sheets of silent lightning flashed over the Rip as Council Watch headed for the Rosebud meeting, listening in the car to excited radio speculation on who would be prime minister after this night. CW wondered what the Boon Wurrung (or indeed the Bunurong) made of dramatic celestial pyrotechnics back in the Dreamtime. They had not heard of Canberra.

The restless sky portended rain. The restless radio appeared to be hoping for a warm change in Canberra, where the boxer and the banker were contesting Round 2 in their drawn-out bout for supremacy. CW recalled Simon & Garfunkelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s The Boxer: â&#x20AC;&#x153;After changes upon changes we are more or less the same.â&#x20AC;?

Inside the predominantly tory council chamber, the atmosphere was flat, preoccupied, thoughts probably wandering north to the political stoush. Two councillors, David Gibb and the mayor Bev Colomb, were apologies. Lynn Bowden remained on leave of absence.

Deputy mayor Graham Pittock was in the chair, brisk and businesslike. CW wondered how he votes. Anne Shaw and Andrew â&#x20AC;&#x153;Billyâ&#x20AC;? Dixon have tory links and Cr Bowdenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s spouse is a retired Liberal MP, but the chamber sees little evidence of party line voting. Several councillors studied their iPads intently, possibly awaiting political news.

The national capitalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s name is generally regarded as aboriginal-derived, from â&#x20AC;&#x153;cobbrraâ&#x20AC;? or derivations â&#x20AC;&#x153;kaburaâ&#x20AC;? or â&#x20AC;&#x153;kaberaâ&#x20AC;?, meaning great corroboree meeting ground. Emphasis on the first syllable. The settlement was originally named Canbery. A rather unprophetic tombstone marking an 1845 death states: â&#x20AC;&#x153;For here we have no continuing city, but seek one to come.â&#x20AC;? The

city without a heart flourishes despite this.

But CW digresses. The council meeting recorded the passing of John M Morgan, pharmacist and 1970s councillor of Mornington Shire, aged 78. Then followed a single question, on possible leachate from Rye tip damaging the Tootgarook wetlands. Assurance was given that this was highly unlikely, but that an old landfill closer to the wetlands was being monitored as the Environment Protection Authority requires.

East Timor was in the agenda and was also subject of a notice of motion on seabed boundaries, as reported in The News (â&#x20AC;&#x153;Shire urged to back East Timorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gas field claimâ&#x20AC;?, 15/9/15).

The shireâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Friends of Lospalos group, now 15 years old, advanced a step last December with the signing of a municipal agreement formally linking the Mornington Peninsula with Timor Lesteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Lautem municipality, in which the Lospalos sub-district is located.

The motion, moved by Friends group chairman Cr Tim Rodgers, was carried, with a couple of abstentions. It calls on the federal government to start negotiations on establishing permanent seabed boundaries that would provide the impoverished fledgling country with a revenue share from offshore oil and gas fields.

Cr Tim Wood pointed out that Australia was acting properly in its approach to these fields, the Greater Sunrise and Laminaria Corallina.

Continued from Page 14 Cr Rodgers said East Timor was 45 minutesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; flight from Darwin. The Koreans and Chinese were more active there than is Australia, he said.

Ditto the â&#x20AC;&#x153;four-step context analysis and design response guideâ&#x20AC;?, aimed to â&#x20AC;&#x153;assist prospective planning permit applicants and design consultantsâ&#x20AC;? to achieve better results â&#x20AC;&#x153;and hence contribute to the quality of the built environment on the Mornington Peninsulaâ&#x20AC;?. CW remains sceptical, having seen monstrosities rise on hills and valleys around the peninsula.

Municipal waste, also on the next agenda, usually raises temperatures in the chamber but this evening a profound change was approved without a single raised voice. Councillors decided to close the shireâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s last tip, the odiferous Rye Landfill in Truemans Rd, and seek a site outside the peninsula to take the kerbside waste.

Shire policy for years was to keep shire rubbish in the shire. That changed when it became part of the metropolitan waste management program and the EPA refused to allow the old Pioneer quarry on Arthurs Seat to become a rubbish tip.

Oh, and not to forget the proposed RACV behemoth, high as a seven-storey building, about to loom over the Cape Schanck settlement.

What VCAT orders, the shire must cop.

Blessed be the name of VCAT, and the folk who render their judgements on our neighbourhoods.

Red gondolas? Splendid! Blue gondolas? Even more magnificent! A great contribution to the natural beauty of Arthurs Seat, to be sure.

The Hastings plan for High St and local laneways prompted discussion on traffic speed â&#x20AC;&#x201C; no provision for fast cyclists and a ring road speed of 40kph in the interests of pedestrians, mobility scooters and children â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and passed, with a dissenting vote from Cr Pittock.

The Tootgarook wetland, rightly a favourite of councillors, has had imposed on part of it an environmental significance overlay, with two land parcels, part of the Boneo Equestrian Cen-

tre, excluded, effectively for reasons of mapping difficulties.

In the same agenda item a small area of Bittern was proposed to be protected by an overlay, to create a graduated density zone on the outskirts of the village. Councillors were told a decision that night would protect the area until a ministerial ruling was made, by designating it â&#x20AC;&#x153;a seriously entertained proposalâ&#x20AC;?. In the intricacies of planning, CW is a babe in the woods, but he thinks that was the gist of the explanation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are some greedy developers out there,â&#x20AC;? the meeting was told.

A series of items on land subdivisions, tennis courts and waste monitoring whizzed through on the â&#x20AC;&#x153;moved, seconded, carriedâ&#x20AC;? basis. Then came the notice of motion on flood maps â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a show-stopper which, councillors were told by governance manager Joe Spiteri, would have no effect even if councillors passed it, since the maps already had ministerial approval.

Cr Tim Rodgers had proposed suspending use of the maps as they were causing great difficulties for builders â&#x20AC;&#x201C; as reported in The News (â&#x20AC;&#x153;Flood maps blamed for $2m work lossâ&#x20AC;?, 15/9/15) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; as well as what were described as inaccurate as well as involving tedious bureaucratic requirements and unnecessary costs.

Municipal building surveyor David Kotsiakos was not present to help with the map problems, which deeply disappointed Cr Rodgers. Cr Anne Shaw came to the rescue, suggesting replacing the words â&#x20AC;&#x153;council suspendâ&#x20AC;? use of the maps to â&#x20AC;&#x153;council require a report â&#x20AC;Ś on 12 Octoberâ&#x20AC;? regarding the maps.

Problem neatly solved, and probably a nice problem created for Mr Kotsiakos.

The final agenda item was so confidential mere ratepayers could not even be told its subject. So, back into the lowering night, to await the result of our national leadership bout. Like a chess move, an Abbott fell to a Turnbull. Checkmate?

Boundless views with nature all around Address: Auction: Agency: Agent:

170 Coast Road, FRENCH ISLAND Saturday 17 October at 2pm at the office of Century 21 Homeport Century 21 Homeport, 2100 Frankston-Flinders Road, Hastings, 5979 3555 Phil Bock, 0438 497 715

BREATHTAKING 180-degree bay views abound from this sophisticated, architect-designed home set high on the hill amongst 46.5 hectares (115 acres) of beautiful French Island. This exclusive island has a population of about 100, and 70% of the land area is national park. Residents are not charged council rates, and after the ten-minute passenger ferry ride to Stony Point, the peninsula awaits.

Park your car on the mainland and away you go. This meticulous custom-built home offers all the urban comforts with high-quality fittings and fixtures which include double

glazed windows and hardwood floors throughout. The flexible floor plan has a vivid colour scheme and currently provides for two bedrooms and a separate study. The main bedroom has an ensuite with bay views, and a selfcontained unit also with bay views is perfect as a third bedroom for visitors. An open plan living area incorporates a comfortable lounge, and in the designer kitchen is a huge island bench and plenty of prep space for the chef of the family. From the living space you step out to a vast, wrap around timber deck where you can enjoy sunsets and the

glorious star-filled night sky. Another external improvement is the large shed, perfect for a hobby room or storing the boat and trailer. This is the ideal lock up and leave holiday home, and the sought-after sea change property all in one fantastic package. Beautifully situated with privacy assured this island jewel has no fences to mend, livestock to tend, or neighbours to intrude, there is just the solitude and the innovative, sustainable designed home that ensures year round comfort, living off the grid with solar and wind power.

Southern Peninsula News 22 September 2015

PAGE 29

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

List of killed and wounded rising Compiled by Melissa Walsh “A Spring Poet” forwards us a poetical effusion entitled the “Stay at Home Soldier,” but as he has omitted to enclose his authenticated name and address we must decline to publish same. *** IN our report of the send-off to Somerville volunteers in the third page, the names of Privates A. Conningsby and E. Mead were inadvertently omitted as amongst those who were farewelled. *** TROOPER W. G. Connal of Frankston, late of Malvern, who left Melbourne last Oct, with the 4th Light Horse Regt. 1st A.I.E.F. and was invalided home by the hospital ship “Kyarra” in July, after an operation for appendicitis, took his discharge on Monday last, and immediately enlisted. He goes into camp at Broadmeadows on Monday next. 27th inst. *** THE anniversary of the Frankston Christian Endeavor Society was held in the Methodist Church on Thursday evening last, when there was a good attendance, including visitors from kindred societies on the Peninsula.

Rev R. Jackson occupied the chair, and excellent addresses were delivered by Mr W. J. Northey and Rev. P. Parnaby. At the close if the proceedings the visitors were provided with refreshments in the schoolroom. *** THE news that Mr. A. H. Gregory, of Frankston, was suddenly taken ill at the end of last week was received with

sincere regret by his many friends.

As his condition did not improve, Dr Worniski was called in for consultation with Dr Maxwell, and his removal to Miss Cadle’s private hospital was determined upon on Wednesday morning.

During that day and Thursday his condition was very critical, but we are pleased to state that by the latest reports, the patient has very much improved, and his recovery is now a matter of time. *** THE following apology has been received from Sir John Madden by Dr. Plowman, honorary secretary to the recent fourth presentation to Frankston volunteers, in reply to an invitation to be present, under date September 11 :—” I am very sorry that it will not be possible for me to be present at the presentation ceremony at Frankston on the 20th inst. I shall be on my way to Shepparton on that evening to hold the Assize Court at that town.

It would have been a very real pleasure to have bidden good bye to our gallant Frankston soldiers and to have joined in the hearty cheer which their friends will raise in their honor. However, I wish them a great part in the Empire’s victory and a safe and happy return to their friends and homes.” *** THE commonwealth statistician, Mr G. H. Knibbs, has already ascertained that certain persons have not yet sent in personal cards, and in one case a material fact has been misstated. Until the alphabetical register has been

compiled, prosecutions can of course be undertaken only in cases coming specially under notice.

All persons who have either not sent in cards, or who having sent them in have made any misstatement, are advised to send in, at once, a properly filled in personal card with an explanation of the delay or of the error, as the case may be. Those who fail cannot be excused. Any amended return sent in should be distinctly marked “Amended Return.” *** THE list of killed and wounded of the Peninsula lads is increasing, week by week. Amongst the killed is Private W. Hartland, brother of Captain Hartland, who was killed a few weeks ago. Mr and Mrs Hartland have thus been bereaved of both their sons, and the sincerest sympathy of their many friends is extended to them.

Sergeant Arch Ashmore is also amongst the killed. He was a great favorite in Frankston, having been a regular visitor for years, and a prominent member of the football club.

News has also been received that Driver H. Dial, Corporal Cyril Richardson, Privates Vagg, (2nd occasion) and Ray Dawborn (2nd occasion) have been wounded, and Private Twyford, of Somerville, missing. *** WAR and Woman’s Dress. Has the war affected woman’s dress? This is a question that will interest all our women readers, and it will be fully answered in the pages of “Everylady’s Journal” for September. This is the

semi-annual fashion number, and contains over fifty new spring and summer pattern designs, exclusive of the four selected paper patterns which are given free with the magazine.

One noticeable effect of the war is that there has been an increased demand for up-to-date and reliable paper patterns. “Everylady’s Journal”—always a live and up to-date periodical—offers any of our readers, free of cost, a summer pattern catalogue of 250 designs. The coupon in September issue should be used to secure the catalogue.

While this care for fashions of the day is a particularly strong feature in “Everylady’s Journal” there are other conspicuous items. For instance, an expert in poultry tells how the world’s records in egg-laying were recently broken, and gives instructions so that the house holder may secure the same result.

Amongst the interviews is a capital talk with the Queen of England by Mary Roberts Rinehart, who is also the writer of the serial story “K.’ The practical is again uppermost in a beautifully illustrated article on the making of floor mats in rafia. Readers are reminded that the War Puzzle Competition, with £100 in cash and 121 other prizes, is still open, and may be entered at once. If any reader is unable to obtain “Everylady’s Journal” locally, she can secure it by post for 6 months by sending 3s in stamps or postal note to T. Shaw Fitchett, 376 Swanston St Melbourne. ***

THE social held on Friday evening last in aid of the Red Cross Fund was a decided success. The hall was again beautifully decorated by the committee, and was well filled with patrons.

Songs were rendered in fine style by Miss L. Conly, of Fairfield, and were very much appreciated by those present. Mr A. Diggerson provided tip-top music and dancing was kept going till 1.30 a.m. *** THE annual meeting of the Tyabb Cricket Club will be held on Thursday evening next. The meeting is an important one, as owing to the present unsettled state of affairs it is hardly known whether or not the cricket season will be carried on as usual. *** AT the monthly meeting of the Fruitgrowers’ Association held on Thursday last, Mr A E. Benton, ex-vice president of the Society, was made recipient of a very handsome presentation on the occasion of his marriage, in the shape of a silver and glass breakfast cruet and biscuit barrel. *** RECRUITS WANTED. Every man physically fit is wanted for enlistment. Age—18 to 45 years. Minimum height—5 feet 2 inches. Chest measurement—33 inches. Persons desiring to enlist should apply at the nearest Town Hall, Shire Hall, Drill Hall, or Recruiting Depot, where arrangements will be made for medical examination.

From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 25 September, 1915

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

Apology to one angry dude (wherever he may be)

By Stuart McCullough I’M sorry. Truly. Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine that I’d be the source of such heart-felt angst and misery. It was not my intention. The mere knowledge that I have caused such gut-churning anguish is something over which I am truly remorseful and more than a little embarrassed.

It was never meant to turn out this way. I was simply driving along the river towards work. Then I saw you, helmet on, pedalling your heart out.

You were doing such a wonderful job.

Who could have known that soon you would be shaking your fist at the heavens because of me?

Let me say that in terms of provoking another person to the point they’re willing to shake a clenched fist: it’s been a while. Truth be told, I’m unaccustomed to provoking so fervent a reaction from pretty much anyone, with the possible exception of members of my immediate family. Beyond just an angry glance or raised eyebrow, you held your furious fist aloft. It is, perhaps, little comfort to learn that the whole catastrophe was an accident. I should have said as much at the time but feared stopping to explain might (of itself) be interpreted as an act of aggression.

In my defence, it had been raining.

For this, I cannot reasonably be held responsible. The heavens themselves conspired to create the perfect conditions for the profound misunderstanding that followed. Perhaps that’s why you shook your fist in the air – you weren’t angry with me at all but at the skies themselves for pouring forth their glorious bounty and ensuring an

ordinary road should be replete with hundreds of tiny reservoirs of water.

These pools of liquid are the inevitable result of rain. As I drove, I thought very little of them.

It is, I feel, at least partly your fault.

Southern Peninsula News 22 September 2015

Your bike was not so much running along the edge of the road as riding right up the middle. This is in spite of the fact that there is a separate bike path just a couple of metres over. Regardless of your decision to shun per-

fectly good bicycle infrastructure the powers that be had seen fit to grant you, the fact that you had decided to hog most of the road wasn’t really a problem. There was nothing in the way of on-coming traffic and plenty of room to get around. As I always do, I made sure I left a wide berth to ensure that you would feel safe at all times.

Not only do I consider this appropriate but also an act of friendship towards a fellow citizen who has decided to do the planet and everyone on it a favour and forsake motorised transport in favour of a bike. Leaving an overly generous margin between our respective modes of transport is the least I can do. It was as I overtook that the unthinkable manifested itself in one supremely ugly second.

Let me say right now that you were doing an excellent job. Backside raised and pointed skywards, trouser hams pumping like pistons, face flushed with exertion; you steamed along the boulevard like a man possessed. As my car pulled up alongside, I could see the determined grimace on your face. I wanted to wave. Show you my support for your athletic endeavours. I wanted to do anything that would let you know that your supreme effort had been duly noted and, for what it was worth, there was at least one person on this big round earth that was impressed. Fact is, I was so busy being impressed that I failed to notice the large pool of water that had congregated on the roadway.

Without warning, my front left tyre sank down into a concealed pothole, displacing a large body of liquid and sending it in the form of a miniature

tidal wave over you. An instant earlier, you had been completely dry. Now you were entirely drenched. I had, it seems, quite literally poured a bucket over whatever hopes and aspirations you might have had to go about your morning whilst remaining relatively arid. It is little short of a miracle that you managed to remain upright under the circumstances.

Of course I was horrified. I had no intention whatsoever in giving some stranger a complete drenching. And I could not help but notice as I glanced up at my rear view mirror that you as my unwitting victim were not just wet, you were angry. Very, very angry.

You shouted. Your face, which had been ripe with exhaustion, was now molten with rage. You raised your fist high into the air and shook it with fury.

Railing against me and my potholesquashing, cyclist-soaking proclivities, you expressed your displeasure in the clearest terms possible. I simply want you to know this – message received, loud and clear.

I don’t know where you were heading that day. Maybe you were meeting some friends for coffee at a local café. They too will have ridden their bikes and would have been decked out in various forms of lycra. Doubtless, you would have regaled them with tales of an unthinking driver who cast water all over you. They will have been aghast before consoling you over a decaf latte and a muffin (possibly).

Perhaps you might be kind enough to let the gang know that I am truly sorry and that there is little risk of a repeat offence. Happy cycling. Yours truly… stuart@stuartmccullough.com

DEF LEPPARD SHAKE OFF THE HATERS

By Neil Walker

The haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate but Def Leppard are due more credit in rock and roll’s history books than critics generally give them. Taylor Swift certainly thinks so.

The biggest pop star in the world right now performed with Def Leppard in 2008 as part of a US series called Crossroads that paired modern musicians together with their idols from yesteryear.

Swift reckoned that singing the likes of the hit song Photograph with the band was “my childhood dream come true”.

“My mom was a huge fan of theirs when she was pregnant with me,” she said at the time.

“So growing up, the music that was playing in my house was Def Leppard. It was music that she liked that I could like too.”

Def Leppard sold more than 100 million albums in the 1980s and 1990s – mostly thanks to the Pyromania (1983), Hysteria (1987) and Adrenalize (1992) trio of albums and hits such as Pour Some Sugar On Me, Love Bites and Let’s Get Rocked - but there is a feeling the rockers, despite Swift’s praise, have been unfairly tarred with the same brush as certain flash-in-the-pan ‘hair metal’ bands of the era who quickly rose and fell just before grunge conquered the music world in the mid90s.

There have been tragedies for Def Leppard among the glory days along the way – guitarist Steve Clark died of a prescription drugs and alcohol overdose in 1991 and drummer Rick Allen lost an arm after a car crash on New Year’s Eve in 1984 – but the core of the band including Elliott, bass player Rick Savage, guitarist Phil Collen, drummer Allen and ‘newcomer’ Vivian Campbell, who joined in 1992 to succeed Clark as guitarist stand strong today.

MINT spoke to Def Leppard frontman Joe Elliott on the eve of the band’s latest Australian tour and asked whether he resented the band being (h)airbrushed from rock history by some sections of the music press, most notably the weekly UK mags such as NME. Elliott, on the road and calling from India-

PAGE 32

napolis in the midst of a US tour of stadiums, sounded like he and his bandmates had the last laugh as he recalled the band’s critical reception in some quarters despite their global success.

“There’s an elitism within the media and from certain artists,” he said in a distinctive Sheffield born burr.

“We used to joke about it. We used to imagine some guy walking onto the open plan floor of Rolling Stone magazine’s office wearing a Def Leppard T-shirt and being asked ‘what the hell are you doing?’ while they’re all wearing their Loudon Wainwright, Lou Reed, REM, Springsteen T-shirts.

“We are one of those bands that certain parts of the media just love to tear to pieces because they see us as these dinosaurs.

“We never got the credit for rewiring the way rock and roll was recorded in the 80s. When we put out Pyromania and Hysteria people hadn’t put out records that sounded like that before, because the material wasn’t like Morrissey or Psychedelic Furs style.”

It’s part of what we do.

“There is a core element of certain songs you know that if you don’t play you won’t get out of the building alive. They’re the songs that put you in those buildings so you can’t deny them.”

Australian fans are in for something different from the current US tour though with the band releasing their first album of new material since 2008 in the form of a self-titled Def Leppard album next month. “‘This is a track from our new album’ are the most dreaded words a singer will ever say,” Elliott joked.

“Let’s not turn every act that goes out live into a nostalgia act.”

“There was times when we literally were outselling everybody on the planet,” he noted.

He assured old school Def Leppard fans that they will hear all of the band’s best-known songs though.

“Back in the day, standing toe-to-toe with everyone from Bono to Springsteen was great but we’re not exactly down in the bowling alleys now.

“When you’re massive with the public but not big with the press it really gets up their nose.

Unlike so many of their 80s and 90s peers, Def Leppard have also refused to go down the break up/reunion/repeat route to sell tickets for live gigs.

The band are still playing the big venues, a testament to their longevity with old and new fans alike, and Elliott also credited this with Def Leppard’s enthusiasm for still playing their biggest hits in the live arena.

“Any band that’s been around as long as we have – bands like The Who and The Rolling Stones – are going to play stuff people know.

Southern Peninsula News 22 September 2015

“I’d rather play the [Glasgow] Barrowlands than work on a building site.”

“But also they’re the most important because as long as you’re saying it you’re still doing something current. You have to keep making new music whether the rest of the world think it’s important or not.

“I don’t buy into that ‘these are the songs that made us popular but we’re not going to play them’.”

“That’s not coming from a sense of bitterness.

I couldn’t give a f*** what the press think.

The fact is we’ve got an audience and that’s what important.”

“We didn’t fear failure but maybe not being able to do it at any kind of level. None of us wanted to go back to the regular life,” he said.

The working class worth ethic saw Def Leppard push on and become one of the biggest bands on the planet at the height of their career in the 80s and 90s and Elliott looks back on it with some fondness but also thankfulness for the present.

Elliott believes some in the music press can hold a grudge if a band becomes big without its backing or permission.

“People in the press wouldn’t admit to liking Meat Loaf in the press or Bon Jovi or Taylor Swift ... but these are the very artists who will sell stadiums out,” he said.

vaesque behaviour could be traced back to the bands roots in working class Sheffield.

The singer says the band members were “very aware of the opportunity” afforded them by their hard-working parents’ encouragement in allowing them to pursue their rock and roll dreams.

“Yeah, there are certain bands that do that. I mean, god bless ‘em but The Scorpions have been doing a farewell tour now for about six years, The Eagles have been doing one for about 20 and I think Cher’s being doing one since the 1980s,” Elliott said.

“As unsexy as it sounds, we get on really well.

There’s no agenda, there’s no big drama in the Def Leppard camp. We have our moments where we don’t see eye to eye on certain things but we’re man enough to stand up and talk about it, nip it in the bud before it becomes a volcanic eruption, and get on with it.”

This reluctance to engage in showbiz di-

“No-one even bothers looking at the charts anymore but we’re still playing to 20,000 people in Dallas, for example, so it’s not like we’re not still one of the biggest bands in the world it’s just we’re one of the biggest touring bands in the world, if you like.

“In many respects, it’s been and gone and come back and that’s because of the hard work we’ve put in and we do have a legacy and we do have a massive collection of hit singles and well-known songs.

“Our standing with the audience has never really dropped and our standing within the business is rising again.”

Def Leppard play Rod Laver Arena, Melbourne on Wednesday 18 November with guests Live and Electric Mary. See premier.ticketek.com. au online or call 13 28 49 for tickets including VIP tour packages and backstage passes to meet the band.

Jimmy Rees - A life worth giggling about

By Melissa McCullough TWENTY-eight-year-old jimmy rees has been lulling our children to sleep during the “goodnight hour” since 2009. Now it’s time for him to apply all of his techniques at home with new son, Lenny. Mornington Peninsula Kids sat down to chat with Jimmy about being a new dad and how a kid from Mt Eliza ended up becoming a superstar to pre-schoolers and parents alike.

“I was doing amateur theatre in Frankston and knew I just wanted to get into the industry at some point. I enjoy making people laugh and entertaining people. I don’t see myself as an actor per se. I’m good at playing a silly character like Jimmy Giggle.”

Jimmy hadn’t looked into getting an agent to organise auditions when then girlfriend, Tori, saw the advertisement for a national call in the paper. There were 5,500 entrants and this was Jimmy’s first audition.

He tells us, “I got the phone call with the offer for the role in new preschool show Giggle and Hoot while I was working at the local pub. I ran upstairs into the office to take the call.

The producer asked if I could sing and asked for a sample of my vocals on the spot.” As the front runner for the part, staff on the set started referring to the actor as Jimmy Giggle… and it stuck. He was casted in October and on air in December. “It was sort of like in a big whirlwind. There was quite a learning curve.” So off to Sydney Jimmy and Tori went. But the move didn’t last long. They returned to Melbourne after a few months and Jimmy commuted.

Little did he know how popular the lovable characters Giggle and Hoot would become. “My first realisation of how well it was going was when a little signing and meet and greet was organised at Eastland. I went out there in my pyjamas and there were literally hundreds of families lined up. It was a wow moment. OK – this is popular.”

After getting used to the routine of working Wednesday through Friday, Jimmy and Tori tried for a second time to move to Sydney. It didn’t last long. Tori fell pregnant and the now married couple thought they’d better come back down.

Right: Jimmy Giggle on set.

The Mornington Peninsula is definitely home for Jimmy Rees. He grew up in Mt Eliza and attended St Thomas Moore Primary School and then The Peninsula School. Tori taught at Benton’s Junior College for a year before moving to Sydney. She loved teaching, but for now, is relishing being a stay at home mum.

Fatherhood It was a crazy time in the lead up to Baby Rees’ arrival on April 7th. The Giggle and Hoot tour was beginning in April and little Lenny was due to arrive in late April.

They had to wait 12 weeks to announce the birth of baby Lenny to due to agreements with a magazine and Jimmy’s fans were growing quite concerned. “Even if I mentioned we

had a tour coming up people would respond with, ‘when’s the baby coming, is everything ok?’”

Once they were able to officially announce the arrival of Lenny they received great support from plenty of social media groups such as Mornington Peninsula Kids that were happy to share the photos and good news.

Jimmy remembers the birth going well. Tori and Lenny were safe and happy and then all of a sudden thought, “I’m a dad! I’ve got to keep him alive!”

While mum does take care of most of what Lenny needs Jimmy is the entertainer. He’s happy to pitch in with feedings and whatever else he can do whenever he can.

“It’s so amazing. He’s only four

months old and the growth is exponential. Smiling, then winking, and frustrated because he can’t do something.”

On the topic of sleeping, Jimmy tells us that Lenny has been a dreamboat from pretty much as soon as they got home from the hospital. (Jealous much?) He’s now practically sleeping all the way through; waking up once around midnight for a feed and then back to sleep until around seven. His day sleeps aren’t that great, but he’s coming along.

When asked about the all important support system Jimmy tells us, “All of our families live around here within a few postcodes. That’s another reason we came back from Sydney, at least for our first. We still

At the Bendigo it starts with U.

Rosebud win the title NEPEAN LEAGUE

By Toe Punt ROSEBUD came from 14 points down early in the last quarter to win the 2015 Nepean League premiership by 20 points on Saturday.

After the Eagles scooted away to their biggest lead of the afternoon, care of a Justin Allsop snap in the opening five minutes of the last quarter, Rosebud then dominated the next 30 minutes of the match to run out 13.14 (92) to 10.12 (72) winners.

In a see-sawing battle that saw momentum swing many times during the afternoon, Rosebud refused to be beaten in the final term and its leaders stood up.

While the Eagles appeared to be trying to shut the game down after skipping to the 14 point lead, the Buds were looking at ways to score goals and get themselves back into the match.

Skipper Ryan Spooner led the charge. He willed his side across the line and brought every team mate along with him.

The premiers had a whopping 23 inside 50 metre entries in the last quarter, compared to just five for the Eagles. Rosebud completely dominated.

Jason Bristow, who was the best player on the ground with 34 possessions, including 11 in the last quarter, fittingly kicked the sealer with his first goal of the match.

Keegan Downie was absolutely superb and just shaded for best on ground honours. The 19-year-old was a wonderful target in attack, booting three goals and also spent some time in defence in the second quarter when Somerville got on top.

Rosebud started in sensational fashion, working its way back into the contest after Somerville dominated the first 10 minutes and booted the opening two goals of the game.

Rosebud booted six of the next seven goals in the opening quarter to waltz into the quarter time huddle with a 19 point lead. Rob Forrest was magnificent early, having seven first quarter possessions and booting two goals.

Greg Bentley, who finished with 18 touches, had six of those in the first quarter and Bristow also had eight possessions in the opening stanza.

However, Somerville gained the ascendancy in the following two quarters and kicked six of the next eight goals of the match to lead by eight points at the last change.

Josh Westerman shut down Forrest.

Tommy Shaw was working tirelessly up and back from the forward half of the ground. Luke Rowe started to clunk a few marks and hit the scoreboard. Todd Farrelly continued his domination of Tom Baker (two goals). Ben Sedewick was making life very difficult for Lachy Armstrong.

Justin Farrelly started to break even

with Ben Dwyer in the ruck after being beaten early and Scott Simpson asserted his authority with some very heavy, bone-crunching tackles.

With the likes of Jedd Sutton, Justin Allsop, Leigh Stewart and Cal Dixon winning plenty of the footy, the Eagles looked the hot tip leading into the last quarter.

It certainly looked even better for them in the last when Allsop got on the end of a ball inside 50 and nailed it from 30 metres.

At that stage, the scoreboard read Somerville 10.10 (70) to Rosebud 8.8 (56).

Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s where the celebrations ended for the Eaglesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; players and supporters.

While the Eagles went into protection mode to maintain the lead, Rosebud came charging.

Dwyer again started to jump higher and stronger in the ruck. Bentley, Forrest, Brad McDonald, Rhys Bancroft and Bristow started to force their way forward of centre through sheer will and strength and the back half, led by the dashing and powerful Nick Boswell, began to repel all Somerville attacks.

Matt Baker, Jack Jarman, Chris Zurek and Daniel Wilson, who collectively worked tirelessly all day down back, also grew a leg and made it difficult for their opponents.

Seb Kremich had a fantastic battle with Billy Rolfe all afternoon and broke even in the end after Rolfe had

a bit of it early.

At the other end of the ground, the likes of Tom Stoffells and Glen Peterson started to get busy when the ball went inside and Downie was going for everything in the air, either bringing it to ground for his smalls or marking it.

Dale Stephens had an impact on the match on a number of occasions, utilising his blistering pace, while Brenton Davidge provided sensational support in the ruck for Dwyer.

The Buds certainly lost nothing when Davidge went into the middle.

While the likes of Cade Williams and Kurtis Corrin didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have big numbers, their influence when required supported this Rosebud culture of â&#x20AC;&#x153;team firstâ&#x20AC;?.

Somerville played into Rosebudâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hands when the game was there to be won. It got in front in the second and third quarter because it took the game on. The Eagles took risks, moved the ball quickly and gave their forwards an opportunity.

However, when they got out to 14 points, they went defensive, slowed the game down, didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t run and carry, didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take risks and did nothing to change the momentum.

Rosebud has proven that they are the best in the business at these tactics. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the way they like the game to be played. The result was 11 scoring shots to three in the final term.

Rosebud deserved to be premiers.

They were the minor premier and went straight into the grand final after a second semi-final win.

The entire club deserves to be congratulated. Following the Nick Jewell resignation, the club could have gone off the rails.

While itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s certainly been tough from an off-field perspective, the club has remained vigilant. The on field team has certainly not buckled at any point.

There is only one reward for hard work in footy clubs and that is premierships.

In 2015, Rosebud Football Club are the deserved premiers.

In the reserves, Devon Meadows won its first ever club premiership with a 13.14 (92) to 8.7 (55) victory over Somerville.

Somerville booted the first five goals of the game before the Meadows responded with 13 of the next 16 majors.

Forty-one-year-old club legend Craig Hunter booted three goals while 19-year-old Luke Duhig was judged best afield.

In the Under 19s, Dromana continued its fairytale finals run, beating Rosebud 15.11 (101) to 9.12 (66).

Stars Sam Fowler, Billy Quigley and Sam Guerts dominated for the Tigers while Ethan Johnstone was judged best afield.

It was Rosebudâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second loss in two seasons.

Dogs maul Redlegs to advance to grand final PENINSULA LEAGUE

By Toe Punt MORNINGTON will play Frankston YCW in the 2015 Peninsula Division grand final for the second year in a row after smashing old foes Mt Eliza by 48 points on Sunday.

The Doggies were simply too committed for the Redlegs, who looked as though they would have preferred to be somewhere else other than Kars St in a Preliminary Final.

Mt Eliza were pathetic and gave up without a whimper. If it had not been for Sam Gill, Darren Booth, Karl Lombardozzi, Matt Little, Jimmy Clayton and James Anwyl, they would have been belted by far more than eight goals.

Mornington came out with intent and a desire to play in a grand final. You could have been forgiven for thinking Mt Eliza didn’t care if they got there. The Redlegs kicked three goals in the first half and just two in the second. Mt Eliza averaged 17 goals a game in 2015.

The final score was 13.7 (85) to 5.7 (37).

When you have a full forward like Justin Van Unen, who has kicked more than 100 goals in a season, it’s difficult to understand why he started on a wing. If it was to shake Adam Symes as an opponent, it was naïve by the Mt Eliza brainstrust. Symes is comfortable wherever he plays and was more than happy to stand with Van Unen on the wing. He was far too good for him wherever he played.

James Cameron set the game up for the Doggies with six possessions in the first quarter and 21 for the match. He also booted two goals.

Joel Miller and Ben Wells (two goals) didn’t get a possesion in the first quarter but dominated after that, while Ben Clements was busy all afternoon with three goals.

Jackson Calder just works so hard and wills himself to contests. This attitude is usually rewarded with opportunity and he finished with four goals.

Danny Nolan and Emilio Bitters were back in the side and got better and better as the game went on. Coach Chris Holcombe said before the game that he expected Warwick Miller to play in the grand final.

Michael Gay was dominant in the ruck while Dale Nolan was comfortably the second best player on the ground, playing as a defender. He would have had more than a dozen marks.

While Symes carved up Van Unen, Ryan Smith and Jai Haddock had the ball on a string from half back, while Ryan O’Dell, Josh Halsall and Barry Smeeton did a lot of the grunt work.

Yet again, it wasn’t the prettiest of games, however the Doggies were the side that wanted to win.

If you were a Mt Eliza supporter, you would have left the ground very disappointed.

Obviously, the Doggies’ fans loved it and they are into yet another Grand Final.

Every dog has its day: Mornington are heading to the Peninsula League grand final after slamming Mt Eliza. Picture: Gary Bradshaw

Jewell to coach Sorrento in 2016

By Toe Punt The worst kept secret in local footy can be revealed – Nick Jewell will coach Sorrento next season.

The 2015 premiership coach resigned his post at Rosebud after round six when he was offered the job at Sorrento.

For more than half of the 2015 season, Nick Jewell has been the coach of Sorrento for 2016.

Ideally, according to Jewell, he would have liked to have continued to build on the success that he and the Rosebud Football Club had built over the past three years during his time at the club.

However, the Buds would not give him the job after six rounds of the 2015 season and he exercised his

right to accept another offer that was on the table.

It is believed Jewell was offered the Sorrento job just one year after being at Rosebud, however, he declined the opportunity because he felt there was great opportunity with the Buds.

His father, former Richmond Premiership coach Tony Jewell, is a member at Sorrento, Nick played at the club and plays cricket at the club.

Jewell makes no secret of the fact that it was always a dream to coach Sorrento, however made it clear Rosebud were always his first priority.

Despite winning the 2015 premiership and the reserves and Under 19s going deep into the finals, only one formal application has been made for

the senior coaching position.

Without question, it is the plum job in the entire MPNFL. Footy Show goes to Brewery The last RPP FM Footy Show of the year will be held at Mornington Peninsula Brewery from 9-10am this Saturday, September 26.

It would be sensational to have as many people there as possible to celebrate what has been another awesome year of local footy.

Get down for a free breakfast and try all the local beers on tap – there will be free tastings all morning.

Mornington Peninsula Brewery is located at 72 Watt Rd, Mornington.

Like Jewell at Sorrento, it is believed Taylor Stratton has been the new coach of Crib Point since at least round 15 of this season.

While Crib Point and Stratton refuse to admit that he has the job, we can categorically tell you that the former team of the year midfielder has the top job.

And it is believed that Stratton approached the Magpies for the job, not the other way around.

It is alleged that Stratton was on a recruiting drive within the Hastings group well before the season finished.

We can also tell you that Hastings powerbrokers have made it very clear to Stratton to stop the phone calls to Hastings players.

It is believed his brother Kain

will go with him to Crib Point, with at least one other Hastings player, although no one is sure who that is.

Pearcedale lands big fish Pearcedale announced on Saturday that former Peninsula League medallist, three time premiership player and Seaford star Chris Irving has signed as assistant coach.

Jamie Merchan will continue to be the head coach, however, Irving comes into the fold to support.

Pat Heijden, Ben Mitchell and Dylan Hoare will concentrate on their footy.

Irving is not expected to play at all, however, the Panthers are hopeful of announcing some big signings in the coming weeks.
