New councillors lose support Neil Walker neil@mpnews.com.au NEW councillors elected to Mornington Peninsula Shire council will have half the support staff available to their predecessors.

Council CEO Carl Cowie told councillors last week, just before council elections, that two councillor support positions will be made redundant.

In an email, seen by The News, Mr Cowie said he had made a judgement

All four positions were made redundant and the staff involved have been told they can apply for the two new jobs. “We have a great team of people here and we will keep improving,� Mr Cowie stated in an email to all councillors. “In the end, you pay me to make decisions and execute the council plan, sometimes the decisions seem tough,

not right, sometimes it just takes time to see the fruits of the labour.�

Some councillors were surprised by the timing of the decision to axe two support jobs since there will be at least seven new councillors including firsttime councillors – likely needing extensive help learn about their new roles in local government – as a result of the weekend council elections.

Just four councillors out of 11 in the previous administration – Antonella Celi, Bev Colomb, David Garnock and Hugh Fraser – decided to stand for re-

Results from the 22 October council elections will not be known until 30 October at the earliest after a count overseen by the Victorian Electoral Commission.

Council elections are held every four years and, since so many councillors are stepping down, the shire faces an influx of councillors who may have no experience of local government or the administration of formal meetings.

Award for seniors’ travel group Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au A VOLUNTEER transport service which goes out of its way to get seniors out and about on the Mornington Peninsula has won an Age-Friendly Victoria award.

Peninsula Transport Assist president Neil Toyne accepted the honour at a ceremony at Government House earlier this month.

The service was formed to overcome two issues affecting peninsula residents without transport: the second highest proportion of elderlies in Victoria and the second lowest level of public transport. Added to this is the low proportion of taxis to residents.

These factors combine to make getting around a tall order for a significant proportion of the population and a challenge for PTA organisers Neil Toyne, Andrew Morse and Don Reeves.

To get things rolling, the trio registered the service as a charity in 2013 and formed a working partnership with the shire, the Brotherhood of St Laurence, and Mornington Peninsula Primary Care Partnership.

They found that many community organisations had 12-seater buses that often sat idle due to a lack of volunteers, and mulled over challenges relating to training and managing a volunteer workforce.

Now the service has 50 volunteer drivers, four buses, and another 11 vehicles listed on a bus registry.

“We often underestimate how

important the ability to travel is to a person’s quality of life,” PTA treasurer Andrew Morse said.

“Most people don’t give a second thought about their ability to drive a car, catch a train or order a taxi.

“But, for those who experience transport disadvantage, their inability to get around may leave them feeling disempowered, alone and unable to access basic services.

“Our service pools community resources together. By enabling community organisations to drive further for cheaper, we help combat transport disadvantage throughout Frankston

and the Mornington Peninsula.”

Mr Morse said the service enjoyed a 300 per cent jump in demand last year.

In the Peninsula Transport Assist model a volunteer driver, in their own vehicle, picks up clients from their home to take them to medical, social or other engagements.

“The flow-on effects of this are yet to be quantified but would represent a significant value to the community,” Mr Morse said.

Volunteer drivers use their own cars to transport older people by using a central booking system and are reim-

bursed for kilometres travelled.

“I think it’s important to highlight the value to our community of the ‘pooled’ bus model,” Mr Morse said.

“It’s a win/win situation where our community benefits from the use of idle buses and these organisations receive a financial return that they would not otherwise receive.”

As well as a volunteer committee, the service employs three part-time administration staff.

“The service shows how we can make our communities more age-friendly, enabling older people to maintain their autonomy, social engagement, civic participation and wellbeing,” Mr Morse said.

Walk to school A WALK-to-School day will be held at Rosebud Primary School, Friday 28 October. ‘Walking school buses’ will start from various points around the community and walk to school as a group to promote healthy life choices, Grade 6 teacher Ben Hallas said. The walk will start 8:05am and finish at 8:30am, with a breakfast at the school for all walkers.

4th November WEDNESDAY TO SATURDAY

CEO at AGM MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire CEO Carl Cowie will be the guest speaker at the Sorrento Community Centre’s annual general meeting on 27 October.

The meeting will also mark the opening of the storage centre at the early learning centre which was paid for by a golf carnival at Portsea Golf Club.

Several board member changes will take place at the AGM, which starts at 1pm.

AN exciting month is coming up for Mornington-based Aboriginal art group, Baluk Arts, as artists prepare to show off their works for the ‘On the MAP’ (Mornington Arts Precinct) project 10am-4pm Saturday 12 and Sunday 13 November.

The event is dedicated to showcasing the region’s creative talents and offers the chance for weekend visitors to the peninsula to view the artwork, meet the artists and even have a go at making a weaving or painting a boomerang.

Baluk Arts’s newest recruit, administration officer Tallara Gray, a descendant of the Yadhaigana People of Cape York, will also present her work for the MAP event.

Tallara, who graduated from the Queensland University of Technology last year, makes jewellery, sculptures and mixed media works from various materials.

Also on the same weekend, some of the Baluk artists will be at the Black Arts Market at Carriageworks in Redfern,NSW, representing Indigenous artists of south east Melbourne, Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula.

Baluk Arts opens Tuesday-Friday 10am-5pm at 6 Bruce St, Mornington.

Dessert Buffett A large selection of hot & cold desserts

MORNINGTON Peninsula identity Peter Holloway has passed away after a battle with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma.

Mr Holloway, president of the Mornington Peninsula branch of the National Trust of Australia, was a respected advocate of heritage on the peninsula, and had an in-depth knowledge of the area’s history.

Past president Judy Walsh will step into the role of acting president of the National Trusts’ peninsula branch.

Ms Walsh said Mr Holloway’s death was a sad loss.

“Peter was well known for the retention of heritage on the Mornington Peninsula,” she said.

Mornington Peninsula Shire mayor Graham Pittock said Mr Holloway was an “exceptional help” in heritage issues and had become a good friend, despite unsuccessfully standing against him in two past council elections.

“He was always honourable in defeat,” Cr Pittock said.

Behind scenes advice a Topsy service Neil Walker neil@mpnews.com.au NEW councillors elected this weekend who have never served on council may get a helping hand from mentorship services provided by a former Kingston councillor and mayor.

Topsy Petchey, a four-time Kingston mayor and councillor for eight years until 2008, has been a consultant for hire to both Frankston and Mornington Peninsula Shire councils in the past few years.

Her TePee Pty Ltd business offers mentorship, mediation and consultation advice and help for councils and companies.

Frankston Council confirmed $59,695 was paid to Ms Petchey over two council terms, totalling eight years, for work done to assist council and councillors.

Mornington Peninsula Shire advised that $70,600 had been paid to provide advice to councillors and help with performance reviews since October 2012, the start of the previous four-year council term.

Ms Petchey often helps councillors discuss the appointment of a council chief executive officer and the CEO’s key performance targets.

Frankston councillor Sandra Mayer, one of several councillors who consulted with Ms Petchey, said the former Kingston mayor taught her about the challenges facing councillors.

Cr Mayer said she found the mentorship service invaluable and felt a lot of councillor infighting over the past two years at Frankston Council may not have happened if Ms Petchy had been on hand to give advice.

Councillors’ counsellor: Ex-Kingston mayor Topsy Petchey is now in the consultancy business.

“She’s a really genuine person who is passionate about local government,” Cr Mayer said.

“It’s a bit disappointing in this term we had people saying they’d be fine without external assistance.

“This council was not interested in engaging with her and if they had they may have seen things from a different perspective – you’re not there for yourself, you’re there for your community.”

Former councillor Kris Bolam, hoping to be re-elected when council election results are announced on 30 October, said he had also consulted with Ms Petchy when he was a first-time elected

representative to council.

Mr Bolam has previously criticised council for “wasting” money on consultants.

“As a new council we required a steady hand to help ensure that infighting and personality clashes did not occur,” he said.

“Topsy provided a great deal of advice in preventing the infighting and personality clashes that we see at council.

“There is a good use of consultants and a bad use where the value can’t be accounted for.”

Mr Bolam said with six new councillors in the 2008 intake of elected representatives, Ms Petchey’s advice was beneficial to get newcomers up to speed quickly.

Frankston Council was happy to provide a breakdown of the fees paid to Ms Petchey’s consultancy company, including the allocation of costs to each councillor, but Mornington Peninsula Shire was less forthcoming in releasing information about how ratepayers’ money is spent.

Shire media communications manager Mark Kestigian said caretaker provisions in force in the lead up to council elections on 22 October meant council could not release information that may affect the elections outcome.

The News requested the information from the shire three weeks before the elections caretaker period began on 20 September and regularly asked when the information would be provided only to then be told the information would not be provided.

Departing shire mayor Graham Pittock, who is not seeking re-election, was more open about the use of Ms Petch-

“Usually it’s the mayor and maybe a councillor might occasionally ask her for advice,” he said.

“It’s good to have someone to provide independent advice. She’s highly regarded and her advice is sought after.

Overall, I think we get value for money.”

Ms Petchey told The News she does not advertise her company’s services and is approached by councils when they need independent advice on matters such as CEO contracts.

“When you’re first elected you don’t know what you don’t know. And it

would have helped me, even 10 years ago, if someone said ‘this is available to do, just tap into it’ because you’re learning on the job and so many people have never had this sort of experience,” Ms Petchey said.

“I also can do the facilitation of discussions councillors have around the mayoral election - basically ensure it’s a process that stands up to scrutiny and everyone is able to present if they want to be mayor.”

She said she had not done any work for Frankston Council over the past two turbulent years.

Cr Pittock believed new councillors can benefit from mentorship advice.

“Next year we’ll have a minimum of seven new councillors and there’s so much to learn and they do need a reliable mentor.”

Fees for mentorship services are not solely listed as a councillor training expense at Frankston Council.

“Payments for various professional services provided by Topsy Petchey have been allocated to relevant areas of council’s budget as determined by the service provided,” council CEO Dennis Hovenden said.

“This includes training and development, consultancy and others as deemed appropriate.”

Mornington Peninsula Shire has been secretive about councillor expenses this council term and has refused to release the figures for the full council term before council elections.

More than $30,000 of ratepayers’ money, excluding council officers’ time, has been spent by Frankston Council on arbitration hearings into councillors’ misconduct during this council term.

Crowd controls coming to the Pillars Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au FENCES, trimming trees and erecting new warning signs are seen as the solution to crowd control at the Pillars diving and swimming spot on the cliffs at Mt Martha.

Mornington Peninsula Shire has teamed up with the state government to spend $50,000 to lessen risks faced by the hundreds of mainly young people who flock to perch on the cliff faces on any sunny day.

Police and shire rangers last summer booked hundreds of illegally parked cars on the Esplanade and surrounding streets, but the result has done little to counter the appeal of the Pillars.

The scenic spot - once known only to “locals” - has its own Facebook page and any news or photos portraying activities are instantly shared on social media.

Last month the shire also introduced an alcohol ban to control “inappropriate behaviours” in and around the Pillars.

The ban extends several blocks inland, effectively making it illegal for anyone to have a drink outside of their own property.

Last week the state government ($30,000) and the shire ($20,000) announced new speed signs, “vegetation management and minor fencing” along the Esplanade near the entrance to the Pillars.

The money will also go towards a management plan for the Pillars in conjunction with the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Plan-

Sands of time: In April 2010 tonnes of sand were trucked along the beach from Mt Martha South to the severly eroded Mt Martha North. Mornington Peninsula Shire and the state government are about to spend $55,000 on another study into the best ways of managing and protecting the area.

ning, VicRoads, Victoria Police and Ambulance Victoria.

The government ($38,500) and shire ($16,500) are also commissioning a coastal study of Mt Martha North beach.

The money has come to the shire through the state government’s Coastal Environments Public Access

and Risk Program.

At Mt Martha North, erosion has taken its toll of the foreshore and cliffs, with sand being swept from the beach, revealing clay and rocks.

Access steps have been demolished and cliffs, vegetation and bathing boxes undermined.

The study will include the foreshore

from Helena St in the north to Balcombe estuary in the south.

Earlier studies have resulted in recommendations for thousands of tonnes of sand to be trucked onto the beach from Mt Martha South and sand quarries in South Gippsland.

The sand appears to gradually reduce in depth over the following few

years, with storms regularly battering the cliffs and bathing boxes.

Offcially, this latest study aims to provide an understanding of the natural processes of this section of foreshore, as well as provide information to outline progressive management and ensure public safety and preservation of biodiversity.

Telstra operations staff received word of an issue affecting some fixed line and ADSL services, mostly to the north east of the town.

“We received reports of loss of service from 36 customers,” Telstra’s area general manager for eastern Victoria Loretta Willaton said.

“Crews identified the cause of the fault as being related to one of the cables supplying services to a street cabinet. Repairs were undertaken and all services were fully restored by 10am Friday.”

Crews halt shed fire MT ELIZA Fire Brigade members extinguished a potentially dangerous shed fire on Saturday afternoon last week.

Lieutenant Mark Turnham said the shed was “fully involved” when the two Mt Eliza trucks and one Frankston truck arrived at the Winona Rd property.

The shed containing garden tools was next to a garage and house and the blaze took 15-20 minutes to control. The cause is unknown.

“The crews did well to protect the garage and house,” Lieutenant Turnham said.

Councillors lose support Continued from Page 1 Council support staff help councillors with correspondence received from ratepayers, organise councillor diaries to attend community events and act as a point of contact between councillors and council staff in various council departments.

Two staff members will have to look after 11 councillors during the next four-year council term after the redundancies which will be made next month.

While the councillor support team has only been together for “a couple of years”, Cr Pittock said two of the employees are long-time council workers.

The shire declined to answer questions about how much any redundancies would cost.

“Mornington Peninsula Shire continues to review the delivery of programs to provide the best level of service to our community and to ensure

ratepayer funds are used as efficiently as possible,” Mr Cowie said in a statement.

“As part of this process, shire business units are continually looking for ways to improve their performance.

“It is not appropriate to discuss any specific staff circumstances.”

In his correspondence to the councillors, Mr Cowie said he valued their advice when discussing the council support team and other matters but ultimately: “Whether one takes the advice or opts to back oneself, that’s just an experiential judgement call and I’ll always do that, always trying to get the best result for the shire”.

Mr Cowie, born in Scotland, succeeded near 16-year predecessor Michael Kennedy as shire CEO in December 2014. Mr Cowie has a business finance background and there have been several staff redundancies since his appointment amid a restructuring of council’s operations.

Using rubbish to spread clean-up message Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au A RYE woman has won the Dame Phyllis Frost Award for her project The One Tonne Challenge, which focuses on “giving back to the ocean by encouraging people to pick up rubbish at our beaches�.

Josie Jones collected the award at Horsham, Saturday 15 October, in the annual Tidy Towns competition in which three Mornington Peninsula townships – Mornington, Hastings and Crib Point – were finalists in their categories.

Horsham won the 48th Tidy Town Awards which are run by the Keep Australia Beautiful Council. Media personality Mark Mitchell was master of ceremonies.

Ms Jones has a strong passion for the marine environment and her campaigns – The One Tonne Challenge, If you see it pick it up and I’m really a mermaid – have encouraged people to remove litter from beaches.

A catalyst to her beach-cleaning work many years ago was inadvertently watching a woman bury a nappy on a beach in Tahiti. She dug it up and disposed of it properly, but the image remained and the passion for the cause was roused.

The graphic designer uses her skills as an artist to create clean-up poster campaigns that, hopefully, get people onside. Sales from posters each year aid dolphin research as well as research and study into the southern right whale.

Ms Jones has also visited the whale protection ship Sea Shepherd and

Beaches along both Port Phillip and Western Port bays – where she began collecting rubbish 10 years ago – are a “soup� of plastics and litter. Her most frequent finds are cigarette butts, lollypop sticks, fast-food wrappers and plastic pieces of all sorts. Little red plastics soy caps are a bugbear.

On her daily walks between the White Cliffs hill and Capel Sound she picks up on an average three kilograms of rubbish.

She prefers to display her work through rubbish collection so that no-one can deny its existence, and she doesn’t ask anyone for help. “I allow my actions to be an example to others,� she said.

“Word of mouth gives leverage to the I’m really a mermaid campaign. “I am passionate about changing the views and habits of people about effective waste management.�

Ms Jones said winning the award was an “awesome achievement for the area�. “Currently the trophy is being shared: it spent two days at Captains of Rye, for whom I am a designer; it is now at Freaky Tiki and then it will go to A Mini Kitchen, which sells posters for the campaign.�

Six other peninsula initiatives were recognised in the Sustainable Community Awards: Mornington Community Information and Support Centre for its emergency relief centre which assists those experiencing financial crisis; Crib Point Community for the rubbish clean up after the bush fires, and Mornington Peninsula Shire and

MORNINGTON Community Information & Support Centre manager Lisa Elliott was thrilled her group was honoured in the Tidy Town awards.

It won praise for its efforts in providing food for low-income earners. “The award represents our many programs aimed at alleviating financial stress by providing free healthy food,� she said. “Much of this food is sourced through Secondbite and some is cooked for our meals program. The fresh food program provides a free parcel of food to around 15,000 people each year. “The meals are assisting a small group of low-income and isolated residents with healthy sustenance, as well as a warm and friendly evening out,� she said.

She thanked the shire for the “amazing support we receive in providing our most vulnerable residents with continuous support over 36 years�. “This support comes in the form of professional advice from many different sources, a generous annual financial grant and providing us with infrastructure to house our main Manton and Stony Creek Landcare Group for transforming the Red Hill Station Reserve into a useable community space.

Highly Commended Awards went to Mornington Peninsula Shire and

business of support, information and guidance to visitors to the peninsula,� she said. “The Masonic Lodge has welcomed our meals program and the work we are doing and allows us to use their kitchen and main hall twice a week,� Ms Elliott said. “St Marks Uniting Church has housed our Free Fresh Food Program for the past four years and the minister John Haig and his congregation support us financially with a supply of Woolworth’s gift cards each year.�

This program supports other community organisations, including Mornington Park Primary School’s breakfast, hot lunch and cooking classes. St Vincent de Paul volunteers work closely with the group.

Supporters help by donating to the food pantry, op-shop and winter coat appeal. “The community action involved in providing so much support to lowincome earners has been awarded on a state level and recognises a whole community approach to supporting our most vulnerable,� Ms Elliott said. “It would be difficult to quantify the incredible ways this community supports its own, with 140 volunteers over many programs.�

Mt Eliza Placemaking Group for the Mt Eliza Community Safety Signage project. Western Port (Hastings) community volunteers also received an award for their visitor information centre.

Girls walk for good cause A GROUP of friends from Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula are discovering the beauty and serenity of some of the Mornington Peninsula’s best-kept secrets while they train for the upcoming Wild Women on Top ‘Melbourne Coastrek’ walk.

Frankston South woman Sarah Watson is one of 12 friends who have been enjoying parts of the peninsula they never knew existed while training for the 60km charity walk, in between dodging Tiger snakes, brushing past kangaroos and echidnas, and marvelling at the beauty of the coastline. “We’ve been doing walks around Cape Schanck and Point Nepean and without doubt one of the best things about training is the incredible scenery we see,� she said.

Ms Watson said most of the group’s participants were mothers, who were enjoying the opportunity of bringing their children with them to enjoy the scenery and discover the

more remote parts of “our own backyard�. “It’s amazing just how pretty the peninsula is, we’ve been really enjoying looking at some magnificent parts we didn’t really know existed.�

The women began fundraising for the 30km and 60km charity event months ago, kicking it off with a trivia night in June that raised $6500, all of which goes to the Fred Hollows Foundation to restore the eyesight of underprivileged people world wide.

The women, divided into three teams, had a target when they started, but have already surpassed that thanks to the trivia night and fundraising on World Sight Day in October, and are hoping to keep collecting until the day before the walk.

The Coastrek walk, from Cape Schanck to Point Nepean, will be held on 18 November.

Win puts Ruby on nationals track

Thor’s day: The perfect weather for the Dress for Success charity golf day added to the costumed enjoyment. Picture: Daryl Gordon

Hits and giggles for charity 2008. President Prue Leggoe said the service provided a free dressing and support service to women and schoolleavers, helping to build their job-readiness and interview skills.

A free post-employment support is also offered through a ‘professional women’s group’, which focuses on assisting women through the transition to work, such as retaining their job, dealing with workplace issues and developing professional skills.

Ms Leggoe said the services provided by Dress for Success were often a pivotal step toward our clients achieving financial independence.

“We’re thrilled to receive an Australia Post Our Neighbourhood Community Grant. It will help us to reach out to more women in regional Victoria who can benefit from what Dress for Success can do to empower and prepare women for work.”

THE weather turned it on during a charity golf day at Mornington Golf Club this month, on Friday 14 October, to raise money for the Dress for Success Mornington Peninsula community service.

The annual golf day is organised by Bendigo Bank, with proceeds going to the Dress for Success service.

About 105 people attended the event, which last year raised $12,000.

The group, that provides women with interview clothing, has also been awarded $500 under a program that recognises groups that help build a more “inclusive” society.

Dress for Success Mornington Peninsula, which provides work-appropriate clothing to country, rural and remote women in Victoria, has a mission to help them rebuild their self-confidence and self-esteem as they seek work and financial security.

It’s helped more than 3500 women in and around Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula since starting in

MORNINGTON Secondary School student Ruby Stubbs, pictured, came second in the CT60 combined training section at the State Interschool Equestrian Championships at the Victorian Equestrian Centre, Werribee, during the second term holidays in April.

The win earned her a spot in the Victorian inter-school equestrian team to compete at the national level, which involves both dressage and show jumping.

The Australian Equestrian Godolphin Championships were held during the September school holidays at the Sydney Olympic Equestrian Centre.

Ruby, who lives at Somerville, prepared her horse Aljerrer Park Emirra to look its best for the trials. She won her section against 18 other riders from around Australia and received a sash and horse rug for her efforts.

Ruby was selected in the Australian Combined Training Team for which she received another sash and horse rug.

At the closing ceremony Ruby was judged the rider with the least accumulated penalty points out of 119 riders and was named Australian Combined Training Champion.

“Ruby has displayed great dedication to her training over many years,” college sport coordinator John Walker said.

“On behalf of the school I would like to congratulate Ruby and the Stubbs family on such a wonderful achievement.”

Community garden thrives Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au DROMANA Community Garden attributes part of its growth and health to financial support of service groups and Mornington Peninsula Shire.

Lions Red Hill donated $1000 to buy water tanks, and Mornington Peninsula shire gave $5000 to build communal raised garden beds, compost bays and provide for two community days, a spring launch and autumn harvest.

The shire also allocated $16,500 for a small dwelling at the garden, helped along by a budget submission from the Association for Building Community Dromana.

Hardware chain Bunnings donated trees, tools and blood and bone and may be able to provide an expert to help build the large raised garden bed.

“The garden has formed strong partnerships with Peninsula Specialist College and Chisholm TAFE and we look forward to having students regularly in the garden next year,” secretary and “project manager of sorts” Samantha Blair said.

“We plan to invite Dromana Secondary College and other local organisations to participate in the garden.

We have been joined by many local residents at our monthly working bees and we thank our regulars who come each week. They are really helping to build a strong membership.”

Ms Blair said the community garden needed people to get involved over summer, especially with so much building work to complete. “We need people with design and building

skills to help build a chicken coup, all-accessible raised garden beds and other garden structures.

“We also need more people with ‘green thumbs’, especially anyone excited to research and plan a permaculture food forest and an edible indigenous food garden.”

Peninsula Specialist College students joined volunteers at Dromana Community Garden every Wednesday over Term 1 and, together, they landscaped a large area for an orchard, garden bed and front verge.

TAFE VET horticulture students have been working every Friday morning for three terms and have achieved a lot, Ms Blair said.

Planted trees and shrubs include 20 heritage variety apple trees, donated

by The Briars heritage kitchen garden, as well as an orange tree, two chestnuts, 12 hazelnuts, red currants, raspberries, indigenous plants along the front verge, herb/vegetable garden, including garlic, shallots, culinary herbs and broad beans.

Trees planted in September include two mulberries, 12 almond, apricot, two walnut, two lemon, two olive and a lime tree.

Ms Blair said she appreciated the help of Chisholm high school students, Peninsula Specialist College students and the regular working bee participant.

History analysed: Author and history teacher Brendan Murray writes about the mysteries of HMAS Australia.

Naval mysteries explored AUTHOR and former Mornington Peninsula resident Brendan Murray is coming to Mornington and Rosebud libraries in November.

Murray, who grew up on the peninsula, will talk about his new book, The Drowned Man, an investigation into alleged murders and mystery on HMAS Australia.

The book, which touches on some the seedy aspects of Australia’s naval history, details the intrigue surrounding the apparent cover up of the death of a gay man, suspected murdered, on

HMAS Australia during the Second World War. The writer and history teacher stumbled on the story following a chance encounter in a fish‘n’chip shop with a navy veteran, which launched him on the quest to uncover the uncomfortable truth.

He will be at Mornington Library on Thursday 3 November, 6.30pm and Rosebud Library, Saturday 5 November, 11am.

New councillors face great expectations Congratulations to the yet to be announced new Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors and their successful campaign to serve the residents the shire.

I hope they realise that residents have invested and entrusted them with the power to make MPSC the envy of every other municipality in Australia.

It’s going to be a huge job and a long hard slog because MPSC is coming off an extremely low base. They should adopt the mantra of [former football great] Ron Barrassi: “If it is to be, then it’s up to me.”

First and foremost, they should not rush to elect a mayor. Previous experience as a councillor is not an essential requirement to be a figurehead. Residents do not want a mere figurehead.

We want a “can do and will do” mayor. A mayor who will take personal interest in the operations of council officers to ensure that local laws are obeyed and enforced.

The next new CEO should be put through the same vetting process. Does anyone know if we currently have a CEO? An even more stringent vetting process is required for hiring unit managers and their officers. They should all know the local laws and how to enforce them - that is their job. They should also know that it is their duty to respond to letters, emails, messages and telephone calls.

Finally, to make it abundantly clear that MPSC is serious about improving its rating, notify all employees in writing that it intends to reinstate the age old consequence for dereliction of duty, for negligence, for indulging in deceitful practises and blatant fabrications - dismissal.

There are plenty of well qualified, even better qualified unemployed people waiting to replace them.

Having been elected to council, I hope councillors don’t let your supporters down.

Jane Smith, Hastings

Humanitarian approach Refugees make up a very small part of the 800,000 people coming to Australia each year: short and longer term immigrants, students and workers. The government’s current policies for refugees, which are shrouded in secrecy, seem punitive and short-sighted and certainly lacking understanding of the plight of refugees.

It also seems that refugees coming by boat are considered separately to immigrants and that the huge numbers of arrivals is not common knowledge to government advisors.

It is a relief to know that there are people and organisations looking at the whole picture in a humanitarian way, with a view to finding solutions to very difficult and complex issues around refugees in Australia and around the world.

The government has many people in our communities who would support changes to our current policies of mandatory detention and certainly to allow the men, women and children to come to Australia from both offshore detention

centres. We need big thinkers in government, not the narrow-minded rhetoric and cruel unsustainable and expensive policies advocated and supported by our government.

Our taxes could be spent much more wisely and successfully and we should look to the advice of the people who will suggest considered policies to manage this complex issue.

Ann Renkin, Shoreham

Health labels a joke It has been a year since the introduction of “health star” food labels and health ratings on packaged food and they are a complete joke and waste of time because they are optional. Virtually no product has them.

Most people have never heard of them.

I don’t want some government agency telling me what is healthy for this individual. This foolish scheme should be immediately abandoned and replaced with a system that is valid, informative and compulsory.

As a diabetic it is critical that I know the percentage of sugar in a food. I will then decide how healthy, or poisonous, that food is. The same goes for fat.

All Australians must be made aware of these simple facts, given that we have serious epidemics of diabetes and obesity in this country.

People don’t know what they are eating. Such labelling must be compulsory and conspicuous.

Like the cancer warnings on cigarette packets.

We also must know where the food is made.

We have strict food hygiene regulations in this country,”clean and green”, and this is what I want to buy. Some other countries use raw human sewage as crop fertiliser, some have appalling food hygiene standards. Eating E-coli cannot be healthy. The misleading label “Made in Australia (or Belgium, France, USA) from local or imported ingredients” should be made illegal. It means simply local water added or packed here from the cheapest possible ingredients imported from somewhere.

There is also the use of GM foods (genetically modified). Surely I have the right to know if the canola margarine I may use is made from this?

Will we ever get protective and informative food labelling or is our government putting free trade agreements and food industry profits ahead of the health of Australians?

Brian A Mitchelson, Mornington

High price to protest The shire’s ill-conceived concrete pathway program for Somers is coming up for a hearing at VCAT this week. But the opponents to this totally over the top proposal by Mornington Peninsula Shire have been hit with a demand for around $9000 to be able to be part of the proceedings at VCAT. This demand was communicated less than a week before the hearing.

It seems justice and local government are possibly conspiring to disenfranchise our local population. It seems as if the shire is hell bent

to get this pathway built to create a precedent for shifting the financial burden of infrastructure development onto ordinary ratepayers.

Rate capping by the state government is making it harder for councils to just increase rates to ever higher levels, so this scheme would enable local government to circumvent the new laws.

Rupert Steiner, Balnarring

Save the ducks My family members and myself are totally and extremely angry, shocked, horrified, disgusted and appalled beyond words at our the Daniel Andrews government-approved duck shooting season, which is nothing less than a huge massive insult and affront to everyone and everything good, decent, humane and ethical.

Please support animal welfare in Australia and contact the premier to totally stop this so-called sport permanently.

Sharon Bayer, Frankston

Save the Dolphins The AFL hasn’t trousered any of my hard earned for over 30 years. Having witnessed Sting being paid more than $1 million to perform three songs at this year’s Grand Final while, at the same time, seeing the Frankston Dolphins and their creditors allowed to go to the wall, I won’t be patronising the AFL in any way in the foreseeable future either.

Michael Long, Frankston

Peninsula crime wave The latest crime statistics confirm what I have already been hearing from locals and that is that we are in the midst of an increasing crime wave on the Mornington Peninsula.

We have seen a 9.4 per cent increase in crime over the past 12 months and the Andrews Labor government still believes that, in defence of its own ideological purity, we deserve to feel unsafe in our own homes.

Unfortunately the government has done nothing to resolve this issue which has been building up since it stopped recruiting enough front line police after the 2014 election.

Our hinterland areas are particularly vulnerable as the response times are now extending out to the point where criminals can operate with virtual impunity, knowing that they will be out of the area long before the police arrive.

I will continue to take these concerns direct to the police minister whose only solution to date is to slash funding for the very successful Neighborhood Watch program, without any plan to actually reduce crime and restore order to our community.

Martin Dixon, MP for Nepean

Powerful argument The almost total blackout of South Australia, in part, to unusually strong winds and weather conditions, clearly demonstrated what climate change scientists have been predicting for a long time: more frequent and stronger unseasonable weather conditions.

Prime Minister Turnbull showed his colours by jumping in, boots and all, attributing the total blackout as a demonstration of the unreliability of renewable energy.

Photographs of the power towers crumpled on the ground, clearly suggest that these towers were not designed to withstand a strong wind.

One wonders, was it cost cutting, or design, or lack of understanding of the real effects of

climate change which caused the damage. In Europe the towers are often caked in ice yet they withstand similar or greater winds.

With the cutting of research grants to the CSIRO, some of which could have been used to research power from wave action, we lost another source of power which would have provided extra energy when sun or wind fails.

The prime minister and other ministers will, I hope, learn from this episode. More thought and professional advice before making such misleading statements would be advisable.

Peter Strickland, Balnarring

Not a solo act Cr Hugh Fraser is obviously misinformed when he says I am putting at risk much needed capital investment by the state government and council to revitalise Rye (“Community ignored” Letters 11/10/16). The $588,000 boating safety and facilities grant won’t be lost should the boat/jet ski facilities be made more efficient rather than expanded. These government grants are offered every year and are a very easy-to-get bucket of funds, which the Mornington Peninsula Shire regularly taps into.

Cr Fraser mentions these innovative and exciting proposals revitalising Rye. There is nothing innovative or exciting about the foreshore plans that have been presented to date. However, Rye is finally being paid some attention. If Rye received funds to actually do something that was needed or wanted rather than funding allocated for more plans, that would be exciting.

Rye’s popularity as a place to live and visit is growing in leaps and bounds. Its common knowledge that the younger set see Rye emerging as the Fitzroy of the south. Planning and development of Rye around the Fitzroy concept and other aspects of Rye’s unique funky character would indeed be innovative.

Mechelle Cheers, Rye

Misleading application I believe it is disingenuous of Cr Hugh Fraser to say that I have put at risk much needed capital investment to revitalise Rye, as the $588,000 grant is specifically for the construction of a fourth boat ramp (“Community ignored” Letters 11/10/16). It is questionable whether it is needed as it wasn’t a priority in two of three council reports and the other only did so only after it had dismissed a recommendation in the major report.

How will an extra boat ramp revitalise Rye? I have not conveniently overlooked facts. It is precisely because the Boat Ramp Precinct Plan had “in principle approval” that I have attempted to have the decision overturned. It was also because the “input from further consultations” was ignored that I have pursued the matter further.

The community and I were misled into believing that our input would be considered, when the decision had already been made. The grant application also misled the state government, as [Nepean MP] Martin Dixon has stated in parliament.

I have attended consultations about the draft Rye foreshore master plan, but Cr Fraser is mistaken about my attendance at the Rye Movement and Place public meeting as I was overseas.

No one is more passionate about Rye than me, but any changes need to be properly thought through and the community consulted before the release of any plan.

NEWS DESK Creative feats: Multi-faceted artists Lorna Gerard of Mt Eliza is part of the Peninsula Studio Trail. Picture: Yanni

On the trail for art ART lovers or anyone looking for a unique Christmas gift can enjoy two consecutive weekends of creative expression, when 18 artists showcase their work for the Peninsula Studio Trail.

About 20 artists from Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula will display their work, covering a range of mediums including painting, sculpture, textiles, ceramics, jewellery and printmaking.

Some artists will demonstrate their techniques and take questions from visitors.

One of the artists participating in the event, Mt Eliza author and publisher, designer, silk painter, printmaker, card designer and teacher Lorna Gerard, said the event was an opportunity for residents and visitors to the peninsula to meet artists as they work in their studios.

The Peninsula Studio Trail runs 10am-5pm on 12, 13, 19 and 20 November.

Visitors can download a map of studio locations at peninsulastudiotrail.org. Inquires: info@peninsulastudiotrail.org or call Bryan Baldwin on 0417 120323.

Officer’s 40 years on beat celebrated Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au VICTORIA’S longest serving police officers were honoured at a special morning tea at Parliament House last week.

Police Minister Lisa Neville and Chief Commissioner Graham Ashton hosted the event in Queen’s Hall – where they thanked the officers for their dedication and service in keeping the community safe.

Over their time the officers have witnessed changes in crime fighting techniques, including the introduction of random breath testing, drug testing and DNA profiling. It’s a whole new world.

Among the 50 police honoured were Highway Patrol Sergeant Bruce Buchan, who has served at – among others stations – Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula Traffic Operations Group.

Sergeant Buchan was celebrating 40 years to the day since joining the force, making him one of 242 officers to have served more than 40 years.

“It is a bit of a mystery why I wanted to join,” Sergeant Buchan said last week. “A work colleague went to the same high school as I did and he told me that he knew I was going to be a copper as I was always reading Police Life magazines in the school library.

The problem is I don’t remember doing this.

“I do recall that, when I attended the Dandenong police station for an interview, I was asked by the senior sergeant why I wanted to join and I

All smiles: Sergeant Bruce Buchan looks back on a career of service as part of the Victoria Police force.

replied that I wanted to help people.

That’s what I saw the role of the police to be.

“So, when I was accepted into the force I had been working as a legal clerk in the Melbourne and Metropolitan Board of Works in Lt Collins St. That had been my first job and, although it was a good start, I couldn’t see myself staying there.

“I left there on 15 October 1976, had the weekend off and began training at the Police Academy on 18 October.

Training lasted five months and, unless you had exceptional circumstances, you had to live in there.

“In those days you graduated on the Friday and began three months’ duties at a training station, which for me was the Elsternwick Police Station. It wasn’t an exciting police station and,

after my time there I, like all the others, ended up at the Russell Street Police Station where you seemed to be in a holding pattern.

“I remained there until early 1978, learning the ropes, performing stints at the City Watch House, Parks and Gardens locking up drunks, Flinders Lane Police Station and East Melbourne Police Station.

“As I wanted to work closer to home, I managed to transfer to the old Moorabbin Police Station. That was a good little station with a good boss and I then transferred to Frankston Police Station where my learning curve really kicked off.

“Frankston has always been a busy place and you learnt a lot. I got there not long after the Frankston Riots in May 1979.

“In those days you seemed to be in court every week giving evidence for the drunks you had arrested and every court case you were involved in had the potential to be a contested hearing.

You got to know your local magistrates quite well and they you, in fact, if you were a fair police member, the magistrate would seem to note this. Your reputation before the courts was very important.

“After three years I decided that I needed further experiences and transferred to the Cheltenham Crime Cars.

It was mainly plain clothes’ duties and life consisted of going on raids, taking out warrants and arresting crooks, but it was a lot of fun.

“In 1985 I transferred back to Frankston and worked there for about 18 months before transferring to the

Traffic Operations Group at St Kilda, then to the Traffic Operations Group at Frankston. I really enjoyed those duties but it was time to take promotion and I was promoted to sergeant in 1990 at the Transit Police. That was an interesting place and I remained there for four years. I was lucky to investigate a high-profile crook while there and ended up extraditing him to Victoria from NSW. “In 1994 I managed to transfer to the new Moorabbin Police Station as a supervisor until I returned to the TOG in 95 as a supervising Sgt. Been there ever since and have seen the name change from TOG to TMU to HWP. “Of the highlights, the entire job has been an eye opener for me, and it afforded me a lot of confidence … I used to hate public speaking, but now I can talk the paint off the walls.

“I think my involvement and interest in road safety has been the most satisfying of all the policing duties I have performed. It seemed at the time to be one of the only jobs within Victoria Police that you could make a real difference to the community’s driving attitudes.”

Southern Metro Region Acting Assistant Commissioner Glenn Weir said he was happy to “provide some words around Sergeant Buchan to recognise at local level his 40th year of service to the Victorian Community”.

“Bruce has been a long serving member of the Highway Patrol in the Frankston and Mornington Peninsula area over many years. He is a passionate advocate for road safety who really cares about the community and his staff.”

Holes being bored along railway line Neil Walker neil@mpnews.com.au WORK is being done along the Frankston line to prepare for the removal of eight level crossings between Cheltenham and Frankston.

Geotechnical investigations will be conducted until the end of the year so work crews will remain a familiar sight even before the larger scale separation of road from rail at Balcombe Rd (Mentone), Charman Rd (Cheltenham), Edithvale Rd (Edithvale), Eel Race Rd (Carrum), Seaford Rd (Seaford), Skye/Overton Rd (Frankston), Station St (Bonbeach), Station St (Carrum) starting next year.

The Level Crossing Removal Authority (LXRA) says more than 130 boreholes, about 100 millimetres in diameter, are being drilled to a depth of 40 metres to analyse soil and rock types and ground water levels at each site.

“Geotechnical investigations provide valuable information about ground conditions in and around the dangerous and congested level crossings we are removing on the Frankston rail line,” project director Adam Maguire said.

“Geotechnical information, together with feedback from local residents, businesses and traders, will inform the design of the projects in each location and how they will be built.”

The LXRA, a state government body, said the investigation results will be published and be part of design options at each level crossing to be removed on the Frankston line.

Testing, testing: Work crews testing soils and water levels between Edithvale and Aspendale along the Frankston line this month as part of the level crossings removal project.

Picture: Gary Sissons

A ‘rail trench’ and ‘rail bridge’ are options for level crossings at Seaford, Bonbeach, Edithvale, Mentone and Cheltenham.

A rail bridge may be built at a new crossing at McLeod Rd in Carrum and the Station St crossing could be shut and a new rail bridge built at Eel Race Rd. A new ‘road connection’ at Station

St over the Patterson River is also being looked at as an option.

The state government says a trench cannot be dug at Carrum due to nearby Patterson River.

The government says there is no option at Skye Rd in Frankston – rail over road must be built due to an overland flood plain.

Anti-sky rail protesters have

dubbed any form of elevated rail “rollercoaster” rail and say the skyline of bayside suburbs will be marred by any elevated section of the line and raised rail is only being considered since it is less expensive.

Frankston and Kingston councillors voted to oppose any form of elevated rail along the rail line before going into caretaker mode before

council elections to elect councillors on 22 October.

The LXRA is still seeking feedback before 30 October on options released publicly earlier this year.

The final decision on how each level crossing will be removed See your.levelcrossings.vic.gov.au or call 1800 762 667 to give feedback.

Message from the Premier This summer is forecast to be a dangerous fire season. Fire Action Week is the time for all Victorians to begin preparing.

Many communities throughout Victoria have been battling with persistent rain and rising flood waters. This rainfall has provided the stimulus for increased growth of vegetation in forested, bush and grass fire areas across the state. As summer intensifies, these regions will dry out quickly, increasing the risk of uncontrollable fires, especially over the Christmas and summer holiday period.

stay safe. Leaving early means leaving before a fire starts – not when you can see flames or smell smoke. Leaving early means avoiding panic, being trapped and making the wrong decisions that could be dire.

The steps to take are simple:

Use Fire Action Week to prepare your home and property and think about summer fire safety, especially if you live in bush and grass fire prone areas. Taking the right steps now will help make your decisions in an emergency easier and clearer.

neighbours about what you’ll do on high risk days and have a plan if fire threatens you and your home this summer

The Hon Daniel Andrews MP Premier of Victoria

Emergency services are working with communities, businesses, local councils and government to reduce the risk in your area, while ensuring resources are in place to respond to all emergencies. However, it is up to you to understand the risk in your area, monitor conditions and take responsibility for your own safety and the safety of your household.

THE REASONS ARE BLACK AND WHITE.

Fire Action Week The Right Time To Prepare

2. Check Fire Danger Ratings daily

at emergency.vic.gov.au to find out how dangerous a fire would be if one started and monitor warnings, especially when the Fire Danger Rating is Severe, Extreme or Code Red

3. Pack an emergency kit of

essentials – including important documents, a first aid kit, medications, blankets, water and a battery powered radio – and keep it handy Planning and preparing for fire is everyone’s responsibility. Make it yours this week and help keep your family and the community safe this summer.

For more information on how to get prepared, go to emergency.vic.gov.au.

Taking steps to get prepared before summer means you know what to do when a fire starts.

Talk to your family and friends about how you’ll know when to leave and where to go to

Be Fire Ready.

1. Talk to your household and

1. Plan what you’ll do in the event of a fire, talk to your household and know where to access information on high risk days.

2. Keep grass short. Fire can ignite and travel quickly through long grass.

3. Get rid of dry grass, leaves, twigs and loose bark around your home.

4. Remove or prune shrubs near windows and well away from branches of mature trees.

5. Cut back overhanging tree branches close to property – no branches within 10 metres.

6. Keep gutters and roof areas clear of leaf litter (if you are physically able to).

7. Remove all materials from around the home that could burn, such as boxes, furniture and woodpiles.

Planning and preparation Taking steps to get prepared before the fire season means you know what to do when you’re at risk of fire.

It’s important to prepare your property for fire, but you also need to plan and prepare for your safety.

• Pack important documents, photos, medications, money and clothes so you can leave easily before a fire starts • Talk to your family and friends about how you’ll know when to leave and where to go to stay safe. Leaving early is the safest option to protect yourself and your family. Leaving early means leaving the area before a fire starts – not when you can see flames or smell smoke. Leaving early means avoiding panic, being trapped, making the wrong choices and risking serious injury or death • Do you have family, friends or neighbours who might need help preparing to leave early? Talk to them about when they’re going to leave, where they’re going to go, and how you can help • Fire Danger Ratings are a good way to decide when to leave. They are not a weather forecast – they tell you how dangerous a fire would be if one started. As the ratings increase, so does the risk of a fast moving and uncontrollable fire.

• Never drive if you can see smoke or fire. Thick smoke will make it hard to see and traffic jams and accidents are likely. You also need to keep the roads clear for emergency services • You could be at serious risk of uncontrollable fires on Severe, Extreme and Code Red days. It’s up to you to stay informed. Check the Fire Danger Ratings daily and act to protect yourself and your family • Prevention is everyone’s responsibility. Early action can prevent fires threatening lives and property.

If you see smoke or fire, call Triple Zero (‘000’) immediately. If you see something suspicious, call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 • Preparing your property gives it the best chance of survival during a fire, even if you plan to leave early • Keep trees, overhanging branches and shrubs to a minimum near your home, particularly around and under windows. A big clean up before the fire season can make a huge difference to the survival of your home in a bushfire • Embers are one of the most common causes of homes burning down during a bushfire, even if the fire front doesn’t reach the property. Check where leaves and twigs gather around your home as this is where embers are likely to fall. Keep these areas clear all summer • Before you leave, make sure you remove all flammable items from around your home. Houses have been lost from things as simple as embers landing on a doormat • Keep leaf litter, shrubs and any other fuels to a minimum under trees on your property. This will help to stop a fire from reaching the tree tops, which will reduce embers and the fire intensity near your home • Check that your home and contents insurance is current and includes a level of cover that will be in line with current building standards and regulations.

Changes in those building standards and regulations mean that replacement homes must be built to better withstand natural disasters which can add to the cost of rebuilding.

For information on how to stay safe this summer, visit emergency.vic.gov.au or ring the Victorian Bushfire Information Line on 1800 240 667

THE FIRST FULLY ACCREDITED 6 OR 12 PERSON SAFETY BUNKERS VISIT WILDFIRESAFETYBUNKERS.COM.AU

OR CALL 1800 559 859

Wildfire Safety Bunkers Pty Ltd are committed to supplying and installing superior quality, fully engineered, Government accredited, purposebuilt bushfire bunkers. Wildfire bunkers are rated to the highest current Australian Standard (BAL-FZ), Bushfire Attack Level – Flame Zone.

Each year in Australia our weather seems to become more unpredictable with higher than average winds and extreme temperatures.

Forecasts from the Climate Institute of Australia and the CSIRO predict that Australia will experience an increasing occurrence of WILDFIRE events that threaten life and property. The fire season will start earlier and last longer and will be more intense throughout the season’s length.

Residents who live in isolated areas and areas of surrounding bush land are at high risk during the bushfire season and may wish to consider the installation of a bushfire shelter. When situations change and the time to execute your evacuation plan has been cut short, a Wildfire Safety Bunker could be a resident’s last option.

Anthony Tratt, owner and Managing Director of Wildfire Safety Bunkers said, “We have been in the bushfire shelter business for many years now and our products have been welcomed by residents Australia wide. “I believe the reasons our units have become so popular is that they have been extensively tested and accredited by the Government, they can be installed in a short amount of time, they can be landscaped into existing garden beds and embankments, and they are at an affordable price point “.

Wildfire has received many awards over the past years, these include two High Commendations from the 2012 and 2016 Resilient Australia Awards and in 2015 the Product Innovation Award from the Bushfire Building Council of Australia.

A crusade against the body blues Cameron McCullough cameron@mpnews.com.au IT is a stark statistic; 91 per cent of all women hate their bodies. That was the finding of Taryn Brumfitt who interviewed more than 5000 women on the subject while making her landmark film on body image, Embrace.

The statistic was no surprise to one Mount Martha mother, Yasmin Chandler, who has suffered from a lifelong negative body image, and is only now breaking free from its effects.

“It has taken up far too much of my life,” Yasmin said.

“If I am raw about this, if I put myself out there, maybe other people will benefit from my honesty.”

Yasmin’s journey to body acceptance has been a long one. But there is no doubting where it started.

“I was an early developer. By the age of eleven, I had a womanly body.

I found myself being teased at school, and it was a issue that consumed too much of my thoughts.”

After Yasmin left school she spent most of her work life in very competitive and male-dominated industries.

Firstly in car sales, and later in horse racing.

“I was very obsessed with making money, with being successful. But deep down, I wasn’t feeling fulfilled in life.”

After leaving the car industry, Yasmin worked with her husband in his horse training business.

“I became 100 per cent focused on the success of my husband.

“I began to forget about my own success in life.”

Things changed dramatically nearly three years ago when Yasmin’s marriage fell apart.

“I literally took a year off from life to sort it out,” Yasmin said.

“I realised that I had been pursuing someone else’s goals. Not only that, I had spent my entire adult life thinking about performing and achieving goals, making money mostly!

“Now I was lost. I was totally shattered and, I must admit, I had become someone I just didn’t like anymore.”

Yasmin, now a single mum with two young children, made the decision to go back to basics.

“To change my mindset, that money and success was not the answer, but passion, desire and a absolutely love for what you do is what make you soul tick.

“That void quickly disappeared when I followed my heart’s desire in my career choice and no longer valued myself on what I could earn.”

Yasmin’s business, Mojo Makeovers, was born.

“I am sure many women are just like me. When we have our mojo, we feel invincible, life follows in harmony. We let go of insecurities and walk with confidence. I decided to dedicate my time to helping women get their mojo back!

“Mojo Makeovers is a tranquil, peaceful, discrete environment for women to completely let go, be one with themselves and escape from the outside world.”

Services include Venus Viva skin rejuvenation, facials, essential oils, nutrition products, Jane Iredale makeup, and the Environ skin care range.

“My mission is for women to look

in the mirror and fall back in love with their skin.”

Yasmin also founded ‘The Listening Lounge’ – a confidential, nonjudgemental and safe place where women can air worries, thoughts or challenges.

“After seeing Embrace, I realised I had to bring it to Mornington to help other women who, like me, have been obsessed with body image issues,” said Yasmin.

“I was amazed to discover that 10% of young women suffer from eating disorders and more than 50% of 5-12 year olds want to lose weight.

“I feel like this is a journey I have to go on for the good of my daughters. I don’t want them wasting their time worrying and obsessing like I did”.

After some determined effort, Yasmin arranged for the movie to be screened at Mornington Cinemas on 28 October, which quickly sold out.

“I have managed to get approval for another screening on 18 November at 7pm. Tickets are flying out the door already, so get in quickly if you’d like to come along!” said Yasmin.

Yasmin is now happy and healthy.

She has moved on from her separation and maintains a great relationship with the father of her daughters.

“I have found my inner peace. Now I want to share it around.”

Mojo Makeovers is based in Mount Martha. To find out more about Yasmin’s business, see mojomakeovers. com.au.

To book to see Embrace on 18 November call 0418 144 427.

Respect yourself: Yasmin Chandler is on a mission to help women get their mojo back and embrace who they are. Picture: Cameron McCullough

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

W. L. Gregory writes to his parents from the front Compiled by Cameron McCullough The following letter has been received from W. L. Gregory by his parents: Just a line to tell you I am getting on as good as gold since I got smacked. I dare say you have got my card by this from the Convalescent Camp at Boulogne.

I told you I would give you a description of what it was like when I wrote. To sum the whole thing up it was just like hell let loose.

Anyone that reads about it at home cannot imagine what it was like.

One division of Australians went in (I cannot name the division as it would only get crossed out) and they had to take Posieres. They had as hard a fight as anything on the line. We saw them come out and I can tell you it made our chaps think a bit.

Another division (Australian) was sent in to relieve them and we had to relieve this division. We knew that things were going very hard with them but our chaps stuck to it and were as lively as crickets when they were going in.

We sent one Battalion to the front but they had to retire back, the fire was that hot. They got up later at night and relieved the men that were in after the terrific bombardment.

The next morning that division had to be sent out for re-organization as they had lost heavily.

Our battalion went up the same night and two companies faced the bombardment and got through and relieved the men in the firing line and supports. Then one of the pluckiest things happened for the time we were in the trenches.

Some of the battalion that was sent

out for re organization got surrounded by about fifty Germans. The Germans had taken them prisoners and were getting back to their lines when Lieut Jacka V. C. hopped over the trench and called to two platoons to follow him.

They went out and captured all the Germans and got our own boys back. It was a great piece of work, considering the fire they had to go through.

That night we moved up into the reserves and the following afternoon into the firing line. They were shelling us with shrapnel the whole way up.

I do not think we had a casualty going up. We had no sooner got in than Fritz started bombarding.

You talk about shells coming over, they were falling like peas, the shelling was that heavy. What put heart into our boys more than anything was the fire that our Artillery was sending back to Fritz.

We were getting it bad enough, but I would not have lived in Fritz’s trenches for all the money in the world. I think for every shell he threw over our Artillery threw five or six.

They were going that fast you could hear an incessant humming as they were going over. It used to be just the thing to hear the big 9in and 14in shells going over our heads during the day towards Fritz’s lines. The Tommy artillery used to fire them from about six miles back.

Every time we heard one you should have heard the boys cheering it.

In the front line we had no trench at all. We had to take up our positions in big shell holes and build it up with sandbags. You would get up against the parapet wondering where the next shell

was going to drop. It was only a matter of going in and waiting your turn to get knocked, and of course, if you were lucky you would come out alright.

In one of the machine gun bays (position where the men and guns are) I saw one section levelled to one man. They were all killed or wounded, but he stuck there waiting to see if an attack was going to be made by Fritz, until he was relieved by another section.

All the night through we had to keep observing to see if there was going to be a counter attack by Fritz. If he had come he would have got a pretty warm reception I can tell you.

The boys were worked up to a nice pitch waiting, We were all glad when dawn came. I think it was more to see what damage had been done.

The following afternoon our company was relieved and we went back into the supports, thinking we were going to have a rest, but Fritz started up a very heavy bombardment and gave us a pretty rough time. The trenches were levelled to the ground in places by the shells. There were numerous cases where chaps had to dig their mates out during the night while the shelling was at its heaviest, they having been buried in the trench.

That night our company lost thirty wounded, and 4 killed.

Up till now I have only told you about our losses. Well, they are slight to what the Germans are losing. They brought up their 48th and 168th reserve regiments to have a go at us but they lost very heavily.

I was talking to an A.M.C. orderly and he said our killed were very slight

compared with the wounded. A great number of our men were wounded slightly with shrapnel. Of course these count as casualties.

Everywhere you look you can see dead Germans lying. We hadn’t the time to bury them.

Well, to get on then with the story.

Our company was being relieved that night, after 48 hours in the trenches. In the morning I lost one of my best mates in Joe Bickley from Hastings. He and I had been together right from the the start.

He got badly but not seriously wounded. He and I had our dugouts with about a foot of earth separating us.

During the night two other chaps got shelled out of their dugouts and came to Joe and I. One got with him and the other with me About five in the morning a shrapnel shell burst and a piece or two flew back and got Joe and the chap who was with him. It hit them both through the leg about the thigh. Both had their legs shattered.

The chap who was with me got a big piece through the shoulder and I never got a scratch. Just before this a big piece bigger than a hen egg hit me on the back but glanced off doing no damage.

I had the three of them to look after on my own for about three hours, the stretcher-bearers being occupied elsewhere.

Vince Callanan form Balnarring was with us and was marked as missing but I have found out since that he was sent down to the dressing station with shell shock. He will be alright by now.

That night I got my crack as we were being relieved. We had got well behind

our support trenches when Fritz started putting shrapnel into us. One came right at us and of course we all bobbed, (one bobs naturally after they have been there a while when they hear a shell coming) but did not get low enough.

One piece killed one poor chap just behind me, another took the rear portion of another chap off, and the third piece got me in the head. It hit my rifle and smashed it, then went through my helmet and stopped at my skull.

The doctor told me that I am one of the luckiest chaps at the present moment.

They sent me to Boulogne to the 13th General Hospital (English). From there I was transferred to the 1st Convalescent Camp after having a few days treatment and rest. I asked the doctor to put me out of there and let me get back to the Battalion. It didn’t seem to suit me although it is a beautiful little camp.

I get dissatisfied being on my own. I am now at the Base waiting to get back to the Battalion. The wound has not quite healed yet. You will have to hand this around if any one wants any news as I have said everything. I hope to get back soon to have another go. I do not think I can tell you any more as I am just blown out for news. I hope to see Fred any day now, as I hear his division is somewhere kicking round. I have not seen a letter from you all for at least ten weeks.

Well I will have to close; hoping you are in the best of health with best love from your loving son. *** From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 28 October, 1916

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

Frightening the daylight savings out of me

By Stuart McCullough THANK goodness that’s over. Goodbye to my least favourite night of the year and the dreadful week that inevitably follows in its wake. Farewell for another twelve months when it will, once more, lob upon the doorstep like a marooned but distantly related backpacker determined to move in and devour the contents of the refrigerator wholesale. But for now I must suffer through the consequences of its most unwelcome arrival. Truth be told, I’m tired, grumpy and for this entire week have felt as though I’m running late.

Thanks for nothing, daylight savings.

Once upon a time, daylight savings was shorter. In fact, it used to start in the last weekend of October.

But like some deadly virus, it has slowly spread and now occupies half the year. That means that for a whole six months, we’re running on summertime. Summer, however, is just as long as it always was. I don’t recall anyone voting to expand daylight savings. It’s one of those things that just seems to have happened when we were putting the bins out or looking the other way.

Perhaps it’s climate change. As the earth’s temperature increases, maybe summer and (therefore) summertime, has increased along with it. Doubtless, the Paris accord contains a sub-clause somewhere up the back that reinforces the need to curb emissions and halt the increase in global temperatures in order to contain the spread of daylight savings. Sometimes, looming disasters are described by the number of minutes until midnight. This method, of course, becomes wholly redundant

PAGE 42

when you have to wind the clock forward an hour. Folks, we are in serious trouble.

I truly resent the start of daylight savings. Every hour I have is precious, especially those in the middle

Southern Peninsula News 25 October 2016

of the night because that’s when I do all my best sleeping. If they dropped an hour between four and five o’clock on a Monday afternoon, I probably wouldn’t mind so much. But to be robbed of a whole hour over the

weekend is patently unfair. It’s nothing short of burglary. The effect was exacerbated by the fact that I was unaware that it was due to start as early in October as it was. I felt as though the whole catastrophic experience snuck up on me whilst my back was turned. I was, it seems, completely unprepared.

I mean, where does that missing hour go? Not just mine, but yours too. Just imagine all the things you could have achieved this week with another sixty minutes in your back pocket. You could have finished that book you’ve been reading, gone for a long walk or cooked a meal. Instead, you’ve been way, way, way too busy because some unelected time bandit stole an hour that rightly belongs to you. They have some nerve.

When daylight savings kicks off, the first thing I feel is tired. Then I spend the rest of the entire week that follows trying to get over the fact that I feel tired. And it’s not just me that’s suffering. The dog is confused. The curtains are fading and the cow that I’m currently renting the back room to is confused-as-all-get-out in terms of when to rock up for milking. It’s an incredibly unsatisfactory state of affairs. I can’t begin to think how Flava Flav copes with these kind of shenanigans. I think it’s time we reconsidered the whole idea of moving the clock hand around as though it were some kind of plaything. Time should march to its own beat. It ought to be sacrosanct.

This madness must stop. If we don’t act now, daylight savings will continue its ceaseless march and take over the entire year. Soon, there’ll be no more regular time. Normal time will cease

to matter at all and, instead, we’ll always be an hour ahead of where we should be. My fear is that taking over the whole year won’t be enough for those daylight savings extremists who believe we’re all better off from the exercise inherent in winding the clock forward. Having successfully moved the clocks forward by an hour, there’s now a risk that they’ll seek to claim yet another hour, leaving us a full one hundred and twenty minutes adrift from reality. Before we know it, time will be meaningless.

I appreciate that Queensland has long recognized that daylight savings is dangerous. They have continued to hold out against the advancing tide of summertime, perhaps sensing that it was the thin end of the wedge. I plan to move there. I will seek refuge in the sunshine state to pursue a life free from the tyranny of daylight savings.

Only in Queensland will I able to keep the hour that rightfully belongs to me.

There are some practical impediments, though. Upping sticks and moving north is far easier said than done. There’s another way. Instead of moving, perhaps this is a problem that should be faced head on. It’s time to take a stand. Or, at least, it would be time to take a stand if some oxygen thief hadn’t wound the clock forward.

As of this moment, I will be boycotting daylight savings. If you and I are due to meet, you might wish to take this into account, lest you should end up twiddling your thumbs for an hour.

Time, I feel, is on my side. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

By Melissa McCullough MUSIC: Count Us In is Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s biggest schools initiative, where students across the country sing the same song, on the same day, at the same time. Encouraging young people to become passionate about music and music education, 2016 marks the 10th year of Music: Count Us In and the invitation is out for all Australian schools to get involved.

Schools have register now, learn this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s song and join more than half a million kids for Celebration Day on Thursday November 3rd.

What is Music: Count Us In? Working directly with schools and teachers, Music: Count Us In exists to assist teachers in providing quality music education and to address the gap in specialist music education provision in many Australian schools. The program is both a participation program and an advocacy program â&#x20AC;&#x201C; raising the profile of music education on the national stage, and providing hundreds of thousands of students with practical music learning.

Spurred on by a 2007 National School Music Review which pointed to glaring inadequacies in music education in schools, the report included a recommendation to raise the status

of music in schools. Music: Count Us In was the response. Its purpose â&#x20AC;&#x201C; to energise and engage teachers, principals, school communities, and families, and to provide quality music participation opportunities, available to all.

The program has far exceeded expectations, extending into all states and territories, and connecting with schools of every shape and size. It is freely available to every student in the country â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and beyond. Commendably it has also been consistently supported by both sides of politics, in a bipartisan show of federal support for school music, which extends through until at least 2018.

Actor and singer Jay Lagaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;aia of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Play Schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; fame joins Music: Count Us In 2016 as program mentor, commenting: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m really looking forward to seeing how people interpret the song. This is very much a story that you send to different communities and they come back with their versions of the story. To get together on that special Celebration Day and for everyone to sing it â&#x20AC;&#x201C; for me, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be very exciting!â&#x20AC;?

Registration is still open. Register for free at www.musicaustralia.org. au

JAY chatted to the kids from St. Macartanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Parish Primary school in Mornington about Music Count Us In: Lucy (pictured): Every year at our school we get together in the hall for Music Count Us In and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fantastic.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re looking forward to it this year.

Pearl: How long did it take to make, (organise), Music Count Us In 2016?

Jay: Music Australia works on each yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Music Count Us In across the whole year, taking time to organise the students picked to help write and record the song and then to share it across the country with everyone.

Ava: How many Music Count Us In songs have there been?

Jay: There have been 10 songs in total. This year is Music Count Us Inâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 10 Year Anniversary Judd: Why is the Music Count Us In program so important?

Jay: Designed to encourage young people to become passionate about music and music education, the program is both a participation program and an advocacy program â&#x20AC;&#x201C; raising the profile of music education on the national stage, and providing hundreds of thousands of students with practical music learning.

Rain plays havoc

By IT Gully RAIN was the only winner in MPCA cricket on Saturday.

Dale Irving picked up a couple of wickets for Baxter while Chris Brittain and Justin Bridgeman snagged one each.

The only other play in Provincial cricket was at Alexandra Park.

Harley Peace-Stirling offered some resistance when play resumed and score 33.

Stumps were finally drawn though with the Piners 6/63 off 28.5 overs.
