Blanket appeal for winter THE southern peninsula branch of Food For All is aiming to better last year’s total of 413 items in its nineteenth annual winter appeal.

The group is asking the community to once again dig deep and donate blankets, rugs and quilts which are clean and in good condition to help peninsula families in need.

“We will ensure these are given to deserving families who urgently need help with winter warmth,” Food For All president Ken Northwood said.

Food For All is a non-profit community organisation devoted to providing food to families and individuals in financial difficulty.

Donation bins are located in churches and supermarkets. Non-perishable food is also collected and distributed in familysized parcels each week on the southern peninsula.

Collection points for wrapped and clearly marked donations are at Rosebud Cinemas, Rosebud Library and local churches.

Donations to buy food for the needy can be sent to Food For All, PO Box 440, Rosebud, Vic 3939.

Call Food For All secretary Diane Falconer on 5988 4353 for further information.

Conflict call puts brakes on resort Mike Hast mike@mpnews.com.au MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire Council’s pending decision on the controversial RACV Cape Schanck resort expansion has been thrown into disarray over potential conflict of interest.

The shire’s governance department cancelled last Wednesday’s meeting about the resort application just hours before it was due to start.

Advice from the shire’s legal adviser had previously given councillors who

are RACV members the all-clear to discuss and decide on the proposed $135 million resort but advice seen by The News disagreed. Governance took the conservative approach and stopped the meeting in Mornington.

The issue hangs on members of RACV roadside assistance being entitled to discounts of up to 25 per cent at club resorts throughout Victoria as well as discounted insurance.

The shire is remaining tight-lipped over the matter and issued a two-paragraph statement to The News: “The [development assessment committee]

meeting scheduled for May 20 was postponed to enable council to seek clarification from the Minister for Local Government on the potential for a conflict of interest for councillors who are members of the RACV. The meeting will be rescheduled as soon as council receives the advice from the minister.”

Councillors and the governance department have been more aware of potential conflicts since Cr Graham Pittock was fined $4000 plus massive costs in September 2014 after the Local Government Inspectorate took

legal action in 2012 over him voting on Southern Peninsula Aquatic Centre (SPA) matters in 2012. SPA was to have a gym and Cr Pittock owns a gym in Dromana.

It appears councillors will not be able to vote on the RACV resort unless they are given an exemption by the Minister for Local Government.

One council watcher said it would be better if the council asked for the minister to “call in” the RACV matter, taking it out of the council’s hands.

On Friday, local state MP Martin Dixon criticised the council over the

issue: “I am very disappointed that councillors cannot seem to organise themselves coherently and as such are causing even more unexplained delays in yet another important local project.”

Mr Dixon said the majority of residents in the Cape Schanck estate “have always supported the proposal for a redevelopment of the RACV resort and as such I requested the previous planning minister [Matthew Guy] to get on with making a decision on the proposed [planning] amendment [to facilitate the redevelopment] as quickly as possible”.

Caught on camera: Two men wanted for stealing cigarettes from the Rosebud store.

Wheelie bin used in cigarette raid

Peerless setting: The pier at Rosebud is disappearing and Liz Harris has been documenting its demise with her camera. Imagine her delight last week when a sunset created a seamless backdrop, making the pylons more of art installation than ruins.

Mother’s call for safety first in shoolyard clean-ups Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au THE mother of a child at Rye Primary School is “shocked” that over several years her children had been told to pick up rubbish in the grounds “with their bare hands”.

“To discover that my children completed litter duty tasks without being provided any safety equipment, like gloves or tongs, has angered me greatly,” Lisa Stone, of Rye, said.

“It would only take a sharp piece of hard plastic or glass, a discarded apple core from a child who has the flu - or worse still - a discarded needle to injure or seriously affect the health of my child.”

Ms Stone said she also contacted Rosebud Primary School and was told that it, too, asks pupils to pick up litter in the school grounds with their bare hands.

“Eastbourne Primary School stated that they don't ask students to do rubbish duty, but if they did would make sure students had gloves on.”

Rye principal Jackie Annable, who took over in Term 3 last year, said pupils had been asked to pick up papers

for five minutes over two mornings in the lead-up to Anzac day. She said this tied in with the learning topic Sustainability and Environment.

“That’s the only time it’s been done this year,” she said. “It was purely papers and nothing else. The children were supervised by a teacher and asked to wash their hands afterwards.”

She said buying 400 pairs of rubber gloves “wouldn’t be too eco-friendly”.

Ms Stone says the practice of using children to pick up rubbish at the school is not new.

“We moved to the peninsula two years ago. I have had three children enrolled at Rye Primary. My eldest daughter, who is now in Year 7 at Rosebud Secondary, picked up litter three times during her time at Rye. My son picked up rubbish twice and my youngest daughter, who is still at Rye Primary, has picked up rubbish three times in her two years there.

“The point is that, whether a child has been asked to pick up rubbish once, twice or 10 times, they are being told to do so without being provided with gloves or tongs. That is a safety issue.”

Ms Stone said a Mornington Penin-

sula Shire health officer had told her there was no harm in picking up “some paper rubbish or an apple core”.

“This is ironic when you consider that the council’s clean up team will always be seen picking up rubbish on our streets with gloves and tongs in hand,” she said.

“Are we then to assume that, according to the council, their workers’ health is more important than that of our school children?”

Ms Stone said she could find nothing in the Education Department’s schools’ policy directing schools to provide a duty of care by providing safety gear to pupils collecting rubbish in school grounds.

“In turn, all they advised was that I should approach the principal of my child's school to discuss this matter. If I were to do this I would have no doubt that the answer would be that the children are told to wash their hands afterwards. This just isn't good enough.”

Ms Stone said in cleaning the beaches excursions children always wore gloves. “Are we to just gamble with the health of our children in the naive belief that the rubbish left in school yard playgrounds is less hazardous?”

“It is ignorant to believe that the Rye Primary School grounds are secure enough to stop unsavoury people from leaving smashed glass, beer bottles or syringes in the yard. The fact that people have entered the school grounds during the night, climbed on the school buildings and sprayed graffiti on the walls is proof in itself.

“Are our school children even aware of what hazardous litter looks like? I don't believe that any school is staffed sufficiently for individual supervision of each child during litter duty.

“It would cost the school very little to purchase buckets and tongs for students to use when asked to pick up rubbish. Why not approach the local businesses who may wish to donate these items to schools to ensure the safety of our school children?

“I think collecting litter and keeping your school free from rubbish is an important way to teach children independence and pride in their environment. But I am not willing to risk my daughter’s health in the process.”

Ms Stone now sends her daughter to school equipped disposable gloves and a pair of tongs in case she is told to pick up rubbish.

POLICE have released images of two men who forced their way into the Tobacco Station store in Ninth Av, Rosebud, 2.37am, Tuesday 12 May. The men jemmied open the roller shutters and smashed glass panels on the door. One man stayed outside and passed a wheelie bin in to the other who filled it with cigarettes valued at $20,000.

The men drove off in a light green 1998-2001 Toyota sedan (similar to the one pictured).

The store owner suspects two men who appeared to be casing the store the previous day. One of the men is of Asian appearance with a distinctive hairstyle.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Constable Dave Clancy, Rosebud CIU, on 5986 0416.

Improved line marking, warning signs on Shands Rd and splitter islands at the intersection had improved the intersection.

Speed limited THE speed limit on Mornington-Flinders Rd, Red Hill, between Arthurs Seat and Shands roads - will be cut from 100kmh to 80kmh.

The council had pushed VicRoads for a speed reduction “on behalf of residents and road users”, the mayor Cr Bev Colomb said.

Red Hill Ward’s Cr Tim Wood said the road had a history of serious-injury crashes. “The most recent statistics [from VicRoads CrashStats database] report three serious injury crashes 2009-2013,” he said.

A fatality last year at the intersection of Shands Rd and MorningtonFlinders Rd occurred when works were being done in Shands Rd. Improved line marking, warning signs on Shands Rd and splitter islands had improved the intersection.

Children urged to be seen, and heard

THE driver of a small sedan was lucky to escape serious injury on Monday evening when he veered across the Esplanade, Mt Martha, and into cliff top tea trees.

Sergeant Steve Ashley, of Mornington police, said a 34-year-old Rosebud man was driving south when he lost control and ploughed over the edge.

“He is unsure why the accident happened but he’s very fortunate to have escaped injury,” he said.

The man has been charged with unlicensed driving after failing to renew his licence.

Concert for Nepal THE Presbyterian Churches of Sorrento and Rye have organised a mini concert with hymns featuring students and staff form Kairos Christian College. They will perform flute, singing, drum solo, choir, band ensemble and piano in Christian music, associate minister Hui Lim said.

THE mini-concert is 1.30-2.30pm, Friday 19 June, Sorrento Presbyterian Church, Kerferd Av, Sorrento.

All welcome. This is a free event, with donations going to the Nepal Ministry.

Man charged over car speedo scam A MORNINGTON Peninsula car buyer was one of 91 victims of a trickster who allegedly wound back the speedos on cars he was selling on-line.

Police at Mornington last week charged the man, 29, of Reservoir, with obtaining financial advantage by deception and acting as an unlicensed motor car trader. He was bailed to appear at Frankston Magistrates’ Court for a filing hearing and is expected to be tried at the Country Court at a later date.

Detective Senior Sergeant Nick Vallas, of Mornington police, will allege the man on-sold vehicles to the value of $1 million after buying them at mo-

tor car auctions and then re-advertising them through online classifieds.

Police will allege the man used an easily-obtained speedo resetting device to “wind back the clocks” on the late model cars – with one reset from 240,000 kilometres back to 60,000 kilometres.

The ruse came to light when a Mornington car dealer serviced one of the cars and recognised it as one he had sold previously – when it had many more kilometres on the speedo. He notified the new owner who was, understandably, horrified.

Detective Vallas said police were investigating fraudulent car sales back to 2010 – but believed that they went back even further. There are also more than 91 victims, but “we had to draw a

line somewhere”.

It is claimed the fraudster conned his victims into believing the cars had genuine service books “which he had left home but would post next day”, and had used false dealer stamps on other fake service books.

He said the online classified service had provided valuable information on the fraudulent sales and that records had been seized from a car trader in Reservoir.

“More victims are coming forward following a three-month investigation,” Detective Vallas said. “They would not have bought the cars if they had known the true speedo readings.

“Unfortunately, they, and the peninsula car buyer, won’t be receiving any recompense – it’s just their bad luck.”

CHILDREN enrolling in Rosebud West primary schools in the next few years will benefit from a program making language development the priority.

Melbourne University professor Joseph Sparling launched his program at Seawinds Community Hub, Allambi Av, Rosebud West last week.

“The program responds to strong evidence that children who start kindergarten and school with developmental delays are at significant risk of underachievement in school,” Seawinds Community Hub CEO Heather Barton said. “It offers a comprehensive, preventive approach to help children become not just school ready, but raring to go.”

The pilot phase is being jointly run by Eastbourne Primary School, Seawinds Community Hub, Rosebud Literacy Village and Mornington Peninsula Shire.

The project, based on the evidencebased Abecedarian Approach, will roll out in three phases over the next year. The first will focus on supporting children’s language development from birth, and employ a powerful approach to early language development.

“This innovative, evidence-based approach has, since the 1970s, helped children and their families in disadvantaged communities in the US, Canada, Eastern Europe, and now in Indigenous communities in Australia,” Ms Barton said.

“A national study commissioned by the US Department of Education’s Institute of Educational Sciences found that an Abecedarian Parent Program increased parent responsiveness to children - correlated with child literacy and social outcomes - as well as the likelihood of teen mothers re-engaging with education and training themselves.”

About 30 educators and health professionals - from Seawinds, Rosebud kinder, Frankston Hospital, Anglicare, Rosebud Literacy Village, the shire library and Eastbourne Primary - are collaborating on the project.

Intensive training has been overseen by Melbourne University. The project is being supported by Foundation 59, The R E Ross Trust, Rotary Club of Rosebud-Rye, George Hicks Foundation, the shire, and Growing Child Mornington.

Man of principle JAMES Edward Fenton was Australia’s acting Prime Minister for five months in 1930 when PM

James Scullin was in England for the Imperial Conference. Fenton was living in Frankston when he died in December 1950 and was given a state funeral at the Methodist Church and buried at Mornington next to his wife Elizabeth who died in 1926.

Fenton was a long-time resident of Merricks North, and lobbied successfully for a post office as well as building of what is now called Fenton Hall on Bittern-Dromana Rd, which was used as a state school from 1938 till 1950 when Red Hill Consolidated School opened.

He was notable for having been appointed a cabinet minister by two governments of different political persuasions, Labor and the forerunner of the Liberal Party. The graves were restored in 2013 with a grant from the federal government obtained by Dunkley federal MP Bruce Billson.

Sisters work their way to a new life Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au A NEW land, a new language and no friends or job. It is a situation that is hard to imagine and even harder to experience.

However, that was the predicament confronting Luz Restrepo when she arrived in Australia five years ago after fleeing her native Colombia.

“I was a political asylum seeker with no contacts, very little English language and no employment,” Ms Restrepo said last week.

“I had left my successful communications business to protect my family under threat.”

It was a fear that she was unable to shake.

“When I arrived in Australia I was full of fear, I felt like I was invisible to society and I had lost my sense of identity.”

Without realising it at first, Ms Restrepo was part of a community: “I started to meet women with the same story, some were depressed, socially isolated, lacking confidence and some were at risk of domestic violence.

“One woman I met had been here 20 years and didn’t speak any English. I knew I needed to do something to turn this around.”

Believing the best way to become part of the wider Australian society was to achieve some sort of financial independence, Ms Restrepo wrote a business plan – in Spanish first, out of necessity – and start to learn English.

teaching ourselves craft”.

Although their products were being sold to shops in Melbourne, she realised the women were being isolated by making them at home.

“So I looked for some opportunities for us to sell our products together at markets. This way we were able to help each other by exchanging skills and improving our English.”

Meanwhile, several women from the Mornington Peninsula had joined others in supporting Ms Restrepo’s efforts and in May 2013 SisterWorks was established.

The organisation comprises 68 asylum seeker, refugee and migrant women, 44 volunteer supporters and three part time staff.

Now living in Dromana, Ms Restrepo says SisterWorks encourages the vulnerable women “to tap into their underlying business and entrepreneurial abilities to find selfsufficiency”.

Under her business by 2020 SisterWorks will be “a leading social enterprise known for the power of women from many nations working together to achieve amazing things”.

“We believe that together women are stronger and together women can create opportunities for personal and economic growth.”

Asked if she has a personal ambition, Ms Restrepo is quick to reply “be the minister for women, or entrepreneurs”.

As the organisation’s executive officer she is also its “main voice” and as part of fundraising to find a permanent for SisterWorks Ms Restrepo will “share the stories” of the organisation’s members at Mornington Community Theatre 10ammidday Wednesday 10 June.

Generations get board together Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au

THE making of six wooden paipos, or wooden Hawaiian bodyboards, is a centrepiece of a project that is sees generations swapping skills.

In return for being shown how to handle timber working tools by members of Mornington Men’s Shed students from Mt Eliza Secondary College are giving lessons on handling such digital touch screen devices as smart phones and hand held computers.

But the outcomes for both old and young go much deeper than the creation of a surfboard or ability to operate a smart phone or computer.

A surprising connection between the generations comes in the form of statistics: about 15 per cent of seniors on the Mornington Peninsula suffer depression and about 20 per cent of year 7 and year 8 students suffer depression.

“They’re horrible statistics and I don’t think we fully understand what they mean to our community,” Better Together Project leader Merv Stewart said.

“But both ends [young and old] have that problem.”

Mr Stewart said the Better Together Project is a “social enterprise … that believes that when generations, families, businesses and individuals from different walks of life share, connect and learn from one another we have a richer, more effective community”.

When he started his project two years ago it was aimed at “addressing one of the most significant challenges impacting the largest and fastest growing demographic in the population – addressing the digital exclusion of seniors”.

It didn’t take long for him to realise that having the two generations work alongside one another also brought them closer together, with obvious mutually beneficial outcomes.

The idea of having young and old working together was extended earlier this month to making the bellyboards with Mt Eliza-based wooden surfboard makers Tree to Sea. Gary Miller and Rob Ivers usually show groups of eight how to make surfboards from the plantation grown timber, paulownia. This time the half day workshop involved six students and six members of Mornington Men’s Shed.

They planed, sawed and glued the boards which will be varnished and polished by the men’s shed members.

Oh so quiet: A female seal pup needs to be left alone to thrive. Picture: Gary Sissons

Seal deal for a good life BEACHGOERS are being asked not to approach or feed a seal pup underneath Frankston pier.

The female seal has made Frankston beach its temporary home after coming ashore early last week. Wildlife volunteers are keeping a daily watch on the seal’s behaviour and wellbeing.

Australian Wildlife Assistance Rescue and Education president Jackie Brown said people are welcome to take photographs from behind orange mesh barriers erected by Frankston Council.

“We’re asking people not to approach and not to feed or stress her,” Ms Brown said.

“If we’re going to give her that chance to get out there and survive and do well then she needs to not be fed or handled in any way, shape or form.”

Ms Brown said the seal pup is “doing well”, is active and has been feeding.

Suspected fish hooks in the seal’s back turned out to be superficial barnacle injuries after an assessment by Melbourne Zoo officials.

“Other than being a bit small and underweight and needing some good rest [she’s fine]. She’s got to learn to hunt … so she needs some time for

peace and quiet and if we don’t humanise her or stress her out she’ll get stronger and will be able to get out there on her own.”

AWARE Wildlife Rescue is always keen to hear from volunteers who have time to “seal watch”.

towards running the shed.

Mr Stewart, of Mt Martha, says “real magic” happens when the two generations work together.

Within hours of the boards being built the story behind their construction was featured on the beyondblue Facebook page which in turn created an “unbelievable response” back to Mr Stewart.

Inquiries about the Better Together Project have come from all around Australia.

Another boost will come next month when Mr Stewart, a Mt Eliza Secondary College student and “a local senior” feature on posters promoting Westpac bank’s social change fellowships.

Westpac has appointed the Irish born consultant program manager one of its ambassadors.

“I’m being used to show what’s possible when you reconnect the generations,” Mr Stewart said. “They have shared issues.”

He hopes the Better Together Project will gain a “national momentum”.

When the two generations were working side by side “it feels good, you can feel the energy and there’s no need to teach anyone how to interact”.

Mr Stewart said the board-making half day had been a great success.

Seeing the departing students call out their thanks from a bus “says we’re really onto something here”.

Mr Stewart said the idea behind the project grew from the realisation that the “story” behind his family’s 16th century dairy farm in Ireland had been lost, partly because of the gulf between generations created as a by-product of the digital age. “They didn’t know how to use technology.”

He now plans to take the co-operation between generations into sport and hopes talks now underway will see Mt Eliza Secondary offering one-on-one computer training to seniors on a regular basis as part of its “real time learning” classes.

“We’ve run four or five events at the school and hope other schools will also pick them up.

“The generations are all training together and the activity and experience is the key to success, not necessarily the product.”

THE shire is publishing online an occasional column by the mayor Cr Bev Colomb.

The first “edition” was published mid-April and topics included the budget, the shire’s controversial, so-called organisational review (which saw the termination of 18 senior staff with more changes to come), this year’s Tidy Towns awards, and events attended by the mayor.

These included a meeting of mayors and CEOs with Melbourne’s Lord Mayor Robert Doyle.

The meeting was “part of the Resilient Melbourne initiative, part of the 100 Resilient Cities challenge”, Cr Colomb wrote.

“The initiative aims to improve the capacity of individuals, communities, businesses and systems within a city to survive, adapt and grow no matter what chronic stresses or acute shocks they experience.”

Cr Colomb plugged the recent Mornington Peninsula Tennis International at the shire’s expanded Civic Reserve precinct, which was informally opened late last year and cost more than $8 million, and attended the 11 April unveiling of the controversial, $100,000 sculpture “I Am” on a roundabout at Flinders, which was installed

by Flinders Community Association to mark the town’s 150th anniversary last year, and is now “owned” by the shire, which “bought” it from the association for $10.

The 3.7-metre high silicon, bronze and stainless steel work on a 60-centimetre concrete base was created by Flinders artist Andrew Rogers.

“Later that evening, it was my pleasure to join with Australian of the Year and proud peninsula resident Rosie Batty to contribute to her mission to help provide a national solution to the ever-growing issue of family violence,” Cr Colomb wrote.

“I’d like to thank everyone who came along and supported the Luke Batty Foundation. The organisers did an awesome job and raised thousands of dollars. Council is an active member of the Frankston and Mornington Peninsula Family Violence Network, and raising awareness ... and supporting actions that may reduce family violence are important elements of the shire’s health and wellbeing plan.”

Customers scammed by skimmers Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au BANK customers are being warned to watch out for skimming devices being fitted to some Mornington Peninsula branch ATMs. A Bendigo Bank customer at Dromana got a shock to find her savings account “cleaned out” on Monday last week and immediately posted a warning on her Facebook page.

Katrina Cooper, of Dromana, told friends to make sure the light was

flashing over the card insert slot “otherwise it may have a skimming device” and also to cover the keypad with their hands when keying in PIN numbers.

“People need to know for their own security,” she said. “My card had been copied and used in Sydney to steal $1100 – it just vanished.”

Ms Cooper heard about the theft from the Mornington branch of the bank, where staff had spotted the dubious transaction. “They were fantastic,” she said. “They asked if I needed any money while things were getting sort-

ed; if they could do anything to help in the meantime.”

She said another customer had also been skimmed on the same day.

A Bendigo Bank spokeswoman said fraud monitoring strategies were aimed at “preventing, detecting and reacting to skimming”.

“The bank takes these events very seriously and cooperates with industry partners and police to combat fraud,” she said. “We encourage customers to be mindful of their surroundings when making a transaction and, if they notice

any suspicious behaviour or devices at, or around, the ATM, they should stop the transaction.”

Many ATMs now have privacy shields to cover PINs. “Customers should be cautious when entering their PIN if the terminal has not been fitted with one,” she said. “We recommend they use their spare hand to cover their PIN entry.”

The spokeswoman said customers should take care not to let their card leave their sight when making a purchase in a store.

“They should never allow their card to be swiped through a device other than the EFTPOS terminal.”

Bendigo Bank customers should call 1300 236 344 if they have any concerns or queries, or if they notice any unusual activity on their account.

Rye, Dromana and Rosebud Community Bank branches senior manager Gary Sanford said there were “not many instances” of skimming.

“If customers have concerns they should contact their branch immediately,” Mr Sanford said.

Black cockatoos showing style aloft DURING late autumn and winter, residents of and visitors to the Mornington Peninsula might be lucky to spot male black cockatoos as they show off in the hope of attracting a mating partner.

Susanna Bradshaw of the Foundation for National Parks and Wildlife says that “just like hipster human equivalents who strut their stuff along uber-trendy streets, male black cockatoos are preening themselves and combing their quiffs in an effort to impress females”.

Ms Bradshaw, CEO of the foundation, said there are five black cockatoo species in Australia and they can be found across much of the country.

“The yellow-tailed black cockatoo is the main species in Victoria. In Melbourne they can be seen at the Botanic Gardens and in rural areas they prefer forested areas. Sadly their numbers are declining due to land clearing with Victoria being the most cleared state in Australia.”

On the peninsula, the birds can be seen in the hinterland – Red Hill and Main Ridge area – as well as on the Western Port side but they range far and wide. The peninsula’s many stands of old, tall pine trees are favourite places.

“Unlike their sulphur-crested cousins, black cockatoos do not damage houses and only eat fruit crops when their native foods are low or missing,” Ms Bradshaw said.

“The distinctive cry of black cockatoos as they fly past on a crisp autumn day is a very sentimental Australian sound. Their intelligent and gentle nature is also a delight to witness. These unique Aussie birds are very deserving of our help to make our suburbs and towns better places for them.

“Tips for living with black cockatoos include:  With the extreme weather battering the eastern coast of Australia recently, many people are turning to the chainsaw to remove large trees from their properties. It is these big trees that many Australian animals depend on for nesting and protection. Land clearing is the single biggest threat to the black cockatoo. Seek professional advice before removing trees and leave them be if they are safe or away from pedestrian areas so

that beautiful black cockatoos and many other creatures can enjoy the trees for years to come.  To encourage black cockatoos into your backyard, plant their favourite foods such as casuarinas, native pine trees, banksias and tall eucalypts.  Radiata pines are very popular as they love to eat pine cones. However, these trees are introduced and highly invasive. Before removing them, try to build up native trees nearby so cockatoos will have somewhere to eat and hang out.

“Don’t get the wrong idea about these show-off males. They are not just about looks; they’re also very intelligent and loving. A cockatoo pair will mate for life, which can be more than 50 years, and they will care for each other into old age, even after they can no longer reproduce.

“The male bird will dance to impress his mate by bopping his head like a hip-hop star and fluffing up his crest. He will also bring her food gifts, sing to her and preen her feathers to show his affection during the breeding season. The female will often give the male a sharp peck for his efforts as if bringing him into line.

“Their gregarious and loving nature has made black cockatoos popular pets. Sadly there is a black market trade, particularly in the United States where they fetch the highest price. Because they are slow at reproducing, poachers illegally taking babies and eggs has significantly affected their wild numbers.”  Black cockatoos are the biggest parrots in Australia.  Most females lay two eggs, however only one chick will survive. The chick will stay with its parents for about six months, making these birds very slow reproducers.  Old Australian bush lore suggests the screeching of a black cockatoo means rain is on its way, so keep an ear out for their distinctive cry so you can bring your washing in on time.  The foundation has a free “Backyard Buddies” program with members receiving a monthly email with tips to make your backyard inviting and safe for native animals.

LETTERS Turning away It seems the official position of our country is to now turn the other way when people are drowning at sea off the coast of Malaysia.

It is the problem of the countries in the immediate region who, apparently, are somehow responsible for the policies of the government of Burma, another sovereign country. And to show our objection to them fleeing, we will not agree to re-settle any of them, although it is pretty clear they are fleeing immediate violence and ethnic cleansing policies.

All this in the interests of avoiding people drowning at sea.

These are inhuman attitudes which infect the rest of our society, because they come from the top. Declare to your politicians - Not in our name.

Kevin Bain, Frankston

One rule for all Flinders MP Greg Hunt recently attacked the Christian community by asserting that they had a lot of nerve to complain about children in detention and were not troubled about African refugees. This is really rich coming from a guy who actively participates in a government that made political heyday about the legal execution of two kingpin drug smugglers in Indonesia.

When, we wonder, will Mr Hunt’s government protest the executions in China (maybe an Australian or two soon to be executed there) and the executions in the United States? When will we hear appeals to spare the Boston bomber from the death penalty?

When will we hear demands to not apply the death penalty for the black teenagers who murdered Australian baseball player Chris Lane?

Joe Lenzo, Safety Beach

Develop for jobs Whenever I read the local newspapers, I am reminded how lucky those of us who now live on the Mornington Peninsula are. We have beautiful countryside, fantastic beaches and some great villages.

It would be even better if it were still 1815, or even 1915.

Unfortunately, it is 2015, a reality apparently lamented by some of your regular contributors.

There seems no end of correspondents who are against something - be it a chairlift at Arthur’s seat, an improved port at Hastings, more economic use of land in Mt Eliza or an expanded resort at Cape Schanck.

It seems these people have everything they want already and don’t see any reason to accommodate the needs or aspirations of people from somewhere else who may want to live here – especially anyone born after the 1950s.

Although The Greens and ALP may disagree, we can’t all live on welfare or be public servants. There have to be opportunities for genuine employment in the private sector, especially for the young and those not yet born. If we keep fighting against any development that may actually create jobs, we are dooming them to a bleak future and our nation to economic ruin.

Change is inevitable and it makes more sense to anticipate and plan for this than to bury our heads in the sand.

How about we have a moratorium on people trying to deny change and replace it with a campaign to encourage effective planning and development? Maybe an award scheme to recognise any project which can secure employment for our younger people – as long as it is not the construction of an impenetrable wall along our shire’s northern boundary.

Greg Dixon, Mt Eliza

else would people abuse themselves with such evils as pornography or drugs such as alcohol and Ice? Why else would people allow the killing of their unborn through abortion? Why else would people kill their children in order to take revenge on an estranged partner? Why would some societies allow their senior citizens to be treated shabbily or, worse still, be subjected to involuntary euthanasia?

Until some means arises which switches society’s values back to those of an earlier time, when human life in all its forms, warts and all, was regarded as truly precious, any flailing and wailing by the aforementioned politicians and the media is doomed to fail.

Michael Long, Frankston

Change direction

Ceremony praised

The present cacophony being uttered by politicians, the media and others regarding family violence may be well meaning but is, for the most part, utterly futile, because it addresses the symptoms of the problem not the underlying cause. When the underlying cause is identified one realises that the problem effects not only women and children, but the unborn, the old and men.

The underlying cause is a loss of respect for the human condition. Why

On Friday 24 April, I was very fortunate, as a Mornington Rotarian and community member, to attend Mornington Secondary College’s Anzac ceremony to commemorate the ‘100th anniversary of the Gallipoli landing. It was one of the most impressive school ceremonies that I have attended and it is important that our community should appreciate the excellence of this ceremony and the quality of education provided by this school.

There were numerous highlights de-

Parties irrelevant Now the Labor Party is also happy to slash the renewable energy target by 25 per cent. The “climate change is crap” party,(the Liberals) is going to leave the coastal dwellers around the planet to drown, because no meaningful action on carbon reduction is in its ideological tool kit.

Profit before any other consideration is the motto of these old and, frankly, irrelevant parties.

If we want some action to stop them from selling our kids and grand kids future to the highest bidding multinational, it is time to populate the barricades and make our politicians for once work for the common people and not just for the upper 1 per cent.

Rupert Steiner, Balnarring Beach

Brakes on resort plan Continued from Page 1 “The minister eventually approved the amendment, which then enabled council to advertise the proposal and commence the planning process...”

Asked if he was an RACV member, Mr Dixon said it was irrelevant. “The decision to approve the [planning] amendment was the minister’s and the decision to approve the design is for councillors.”

Opponents of the planned resort have consistently said they supported the concept initially but then saw plans for a building of five storeys

that will be almost 30 metres high. They are concerned about increased traffic and noise, too.

The RACV wants to demolish the existing clubhouse and construct a building to accommodate 650 conference delegates, up from the existing 250 limit. It will have 120 rooms, a restaurant for 140 people and a cafe for 44 people.

Opponents claim there have been “breaches of process”. “We are not seeking to stop the development – we just expect compromise to ensure it meets all requirements of the Incorporated Document [the precinct’s separate planning scheme,” spokeswoman Irene Wyld said.

serving of praise, particularly the fact that the entire ceremony was conducted by students, and in a most dignified and solemn way. The catafalque party and the MC Bastion Merson were superb and it is hard to conceive of a more precise and professional display.

The CFA drum corps, the raising of the flags, the contributions of the college band and school choir, the recitation of the Anzac requiem and bugler Tara Bischorn’s sounding of the Last Post all contributed to the dignity and symbolism of the occasion.

The exemplary level of respect displayed by the entire student body was particularly moving and noteworthy.

The placing of the poppies by students and presentation of Lone Pine seedlings ready for planting along the school drive were wonderful touches.

The students of Mornington Secondary College deserve our heartiest congratulations and praise for the splendid manner in which they honoured this historic event, the fallen and the spirit of Anzac. Likewise, the staff and executive deserve commendation for the successful role they are playing in nurturing and supporting the development of young people who value respect and responsibility, in a society that places so many other conflicting pressures on to young people.

Anzac Day, 2015, we will not forget, and there is no doubt that the student cohort of Mornington Secondary College 2015, in 50 years, will not forget their honouring of this day.

Frank G Fisher, Mornington

Tough winter A growing number of our neighbours will face a lonely winter this year with as many as 7 per cent, or 1.5 million Australians predicted to be considered isolated or very isolated this year.

Having friends around us makes us more resilient to life’s knocks and challenges.

Red Cross helps people of all ages who are doing it tough. We help isolated people reconnect with their communities by assisting them to join social groups and build new friendships. Red Cross also provides free

phone calls to thousands of elderly Australians each day just to check they’re OK. We help people who are homelessness or at risk of becoming homeless, those with mental health issues and disadvantaged families who want a better future for their children.

Across the Asia Pacific region we are working provide clean drinking water and better sanitation, and help rebuild lives after major disasters.

All of our work relies heavily on the generosity of people who donate to Red Cross.

I’m asking everyone to dig deep before 30 June to make sure Red Cross will always be there for our friends and neighbours.

To make a tax deductible donation by 30 June call 1800 811 700 or go to redcross.org.au.

Pedestrian concern The number of pedestrians who have been killed or injured in Victoria in recent years is of great concern.

Last year, 44 pedestrians lost their lives on Victorian roads – an increase of 22 per cent on the previous year.

Almost one third of the victims were elderly and the majority of them were men.

In the past 12 months, hundreds of pedestrians were also seriously injured in Victoria and required hospitalisation.

During the same period, our law firm has seen a jump in enquiries from injured pedestrians.

In Victoria we are lucky to have a no fault scheme that gives injured pedestrians access to a range of benefits, but no amount of money can ever properly compensate them for the physical and psychological trauma that they have suffered.

Whether you are pedestrian, a driver or a cyclist, it is important to remember our roads are shared zones and we all bear a responsibility to look out for each other.

The fall and rise of James His half dozen steps to $240,000

We never expect to be in an accident, especially something as simple as a fall in a public space. But as we get older, these types of accidents can become a more common occurrence, so it is important that we know what to do when they happen.

There are some basic steps you should follow if you do experience a fall in a public space:

The 6 Basic Steps 1. Look to see what has caused you to fall 2. Take a photo of what caused you to fall (mobile phones are great for this) 3. Get the names of all witnesses to the accident 4. Report the fall to those responsible for the public space 5. Do not sign any document (especially a Release) that may be given to you by those responsible for the public space

Ouch!

When you think about insurance premiums, you start to realise it’s really just your money being collected to safeguard against unfortunate accidents in the future. That money is then pooled with other premiums, invested and sits waiting to be used when needed. So when accidents happen - as they inevitably do - it’s simply a matter of moving the money back from the insurance company to the person who now needs it most... you.

At Henry Carus, we know what you’re entitled to, we know the system and we know what you deserve. It needn’t be combative if it is handled as an intelligent, informed process that moves the money back into your hands, in the amount you need and deserve.

LIKE a literal breath of fresh – with just a hint of lavender – air, this charming weatherboard home, on just shy of 700 square metres, has been well-maintained by a one-owner family. Coming up to a solid half century in age, this property has been restumped and has seen some extensions during this time. The interior features a combined living and dining area with gas heating, and a separate casual meals area adjoins the kitchen. There is a quaint sunroom, and three bedrooms all with built-in robes share the one bathroom. The property has access through to the back of the block with a detached single garage and carport. With the large backyard and a 27-metre frontage, developers will certainly see some potential here (STCA), however for first home buyers looking for something a little different, this is an absolute charmer.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Horse breaker found not guilty of negligence Compiled by Melissa Walsh THE Emu Plains and Bittern Race Club will hold their postponed race meeting on Tuesday next (weather permitting). *** S. S. PRICE, dentist, of Melbourne, will be at Garrood’s Prince of Wales Hotel this weekend, for the convenience of those who may wish to consult him. *** MR Allan W. Taylor, of the Frankston Motor Garage, has been appointed agent at Frankston for the Dunlop Tyre Co., and has in hand a good stock of all their motor accessories. *** THE secretary of the Frankston Football Club acknowledges with thanks the following donations to wards the club’s funds: Messrs C. Grant, W. J. Oates and Jacobs, 10s 6d each. *** SERGEANT Walter Fisher, who is reported wounded at the Dardanelles, previous to enlisting, lived at Frankston for some years, where his wife and family now reside. He is one of six brothers, all of whom are in the service of the King. Four of them are at the front, one is at Broadmeadows, and another is with the Heavy Artillery at the Heads. Mrs Fisher, the mother of the boys, resides at Footscray. *** MUNICAPILITIES which do not contribute directly to the funds of the Infectious Diseases Hospital at Fairfield will not in future be entitled to have patients treated free of charge at

the institution. A regulation has been made under the Infectious Diseases Hospital Act, 1914, by the Governor in Council, fixing 1s per patient per day as the sum which the Fairfield Hospital authorities may recover from a non-contributing municipality in respect of each patient from its district received at the institution. *** A MEETING of the committee of the Frankston Football Club was held in the Mechanics’ Hall on Wednesday evening. Present - Cr Oates (vice- president), Messrs Kinnimont, Jackson, Young and C. Twining (hon. sec). The minutes of the previous meeting were read and confirmed.

Routine correspondence was read and received, and accounts amounting to £5 5s 4d were passed for payment.

Mr Scoble was elected a member of the committee, and took his seat, on the motion of Mr Young, seconded

by Mr Jackson. The secretary was instructed to write to Langwarrin club re payment of umpire’s fee for next Saturday, and the meeting closed. *** THE Consulting Engineer of the Frankston Gas Company, Mr V. U. Crowley, A.A.I.E.E., visited Somerville and Hastings on Friday and Saturday of last week in connection with the Frankston and District Electric Supply. Under the guidance of Messrs Watt and Keast, local councilors, he interviewed nearly the whole of the residents of these towns, and met with a good reception everywhere.

Undertakings to take current as soon as available were given by household-

ers to a most satisfactory extent. The other districts in the shire, where it is proposed to take supply lines, will be canvassed at an early date. *** MR F. W. Roper, of Somerville, has been nominated to act as Lay Representative of the parochial district of Westernport in the Synod of the Diocese of Melbourne. Failing the receipt of any further nominations Mr Roper will be duly elected.

Nominations close on the 31st May, 1915. The Rev. F. E. Watts will be away from the district on Sundays, 30th May, 6th and 15th June, when he will exchange with Rev. G. A. M. Ceruthy, Rev. A. R. Mace and Rev. M. Griffeth, and will return on Friday, June 18th. During the absence of the Vicar the district will be in charge of Rev. A. J. Thompson, whose postal address is Somerville. *** FREDERICK Knox, of Pearcedale, was charged at the Melbourne County Court on the 19th inst; with the loss of a horse valued at £20, and alleged trespass and negligence. It appears that Knox, who is a horse breaker, residing in the same locality, proceeded to Jas. Burton’s paddock (the owner of the horse) in company with his brother and another man, and tried to catch the horse for the purpose of breaking it in, and while doing so the animal ran into a ti-tree pole in the fence and impaled himself. The judge said he could not see any evidence of negligence. No doubt Burton wanted the horse broken in and Knox came to get it. He seems to have done nothing

improper or unusual, and there was no negligence on his part. A verdict was given for defendant, with costs, to be taxed. *** A GREAT game was witnessed by a fair crowd at Langwarrin on Saturday last, when Langwarrin and Mornington met. A good solid game was played which ended in anything but a sports manlike manner on the part of the visitors. When our goal umpires came to tally up (to our amazement) our goal umpire being closely interested, had forgotten to put down two points which Langwarrin had scored in the last few moments, and the visitors’ goal umpire seeing this turned away and was seen deliberately to turn away and destroy his official score card and then came forward and said he had it snatched from him.

Well this is not clean sport, but in all confidence we uphold ourselves the winners by 2 points, being backed up by a majority of Mornington’s supporters, by male and female. The game was fast and full of hard knocks from start to finish, and the work of the umpire was made very hard through the bad state of the ground in general. *** EMPIRE Day was celebrated at Frankston on Monday, 24th May, very quietly. If it had not been that several of the townspeople displayed their flags, the day would hardly have been remembered. No doubt this can be accounted for by the war taking a paramount place in the minds of the people at present, and it being

brought more forcibly before their minds as each day fresh lists of dead and wounded are published in the press.

The children at the State school at Frankston were given interesting addresses in the morning by Rev. R. Jackson, Mr Adams and Mr W. W. Richardson. Mr E. M. McComb (member of the school board) was also present. The afternoon was devoted to games and amusements in the school grounds.

In the evening a picture show by Mr Alex Gunn (of Melbourne) was given in the Mechanics’ Hall, which was well attended. A small charge was made for admittance, and the surplus over expenses will be given to the Belgian fund. *** THE local branch of the Red Cross Society is proving themselves to be a live and enthusiastic body. The secretary, Mrs E. P. Mair, has just purchased £3 worth of flannel from the Lady Mayoress, and has distributed it among the ladies to be worked up into garments for the soldiers. As the result of the canvas, a large number of residents have become members of the society, and are paying their subscriptions by monthly installments. On Wednesday next a social will be held in the hall in aid of the fund, when a thoroughly enjoyable evening is guaranteed. The committee of management is making excellent arrangements as regards music and refreshments, and a bumper house should result.

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

Dog day afternoon tea

By Stuart McCullough MORNINGTON Peninsula’s grunge overlords, The Fauves, were absolutely right: dogs really are the best people. It was a sentiment that, until recently, I treated with considerable suspicion. In our house, the push is on for a dog. Initially, I sought to broker a compromise by suggesting a robot vacuum with a wig stuck on, but it seems there is no room for compromise. Having conceded that there will be a canine addition to our family, we must now decide what kind of dog we want. This is no easy matter.

The considerations are endless.

First there’s size. Smaller dogs may not take up much room, but they can be yappy. Large dogs are generally require less exercise but, in a certain light, can resemble a horizontal Wookie. My needs, as always, are simple: just give me a dog that’s good with kids and can reverse park a station wagon and I’m happy.

When faced with big decision, we like to do a lot of research. This meant attending ‘The Dog Lovers Show’. It would be my first such event. I’d been to the Royal Show a bunch of times and attended several Big Days Out, but never anything quite so canine focussed. I had many questions. Would there be showbags? Crowd-surfing?

Would The Fauves make an appearance? And what role will the Ford Precision Driving Team play? As a novice, it was clear that I was going to need some help. Preferably, from someone who was all over the entire

puppy caper.

My niece, Matilda, is such a person.

She is nine years old and besides being a top quality fudge chef and netball enthusiast, knows a lot about puppies. Generously, she offered to be my guide as I navigated my way through a canine minefield. Unlike me, Matilda wasn’t facing the impending puppy maelstrom with any kind of trepidation. In fact, she was totally pumped.

The Exhibition Buildings in the Carlton Gardens are amazing. They were not only the location for John Farnham’s ‘That’s Freedom’ music video, but Australia’s very first Parliament also. Presumably they are plaques commemorating both these momentous events somewhere, although I’m disappointed that there’s not a statue of John and his magnificent mid-eighties crowning glory of a

mullet in the forecourt. Perhaps it too has retired. Temporarily, of course.

We arrive early and experience an immediate sensory overload.

Without any explanation, we are given a copy of the Herald Sun. I’m not sure if we’re meant to lay down sheets as a precaution or roll it up as some kind of training tool if an overexcited mutt piddles on the Parliamentary floor. I ask the guy at the front and he tells me that I’m meant to read it. This would never have occurred to me. As we enter, there are people everywhere. In broad terms, the dogs are organised much like street gangs with the Bloods, Crips, Sharks and Jets all kept a healthy distance apart.

The first stall belongs to Bernese Mountain Dogs. These are so gargantuan that a small child could ride one to the shops. If you gave it a hat and bow tie, it’d look a lot like Fozzie Bear. There are English Sheepdogs who seem always to be hiding behind their fringes and an Irish Wolfhound that ought to be called a ‘Werewolfhound’. In the middle on the ground floor is a small racetrack. Later, a group called ‘the Wonderdogs’ run up and down and perform tricks. I can only say that it’s a lot like the Ford Precision Driving Team, but hairier.

But not all the fun was hairy. If you were so inclined, you could have your face painted. Matilda opted for ‘Chihuahua’. I, in turn, asked for Ace Frehley, which caused no end of confusion. Having had our faces transformed, we continued our search for

the perfect dog. This being the twenty first century there was, of course, a technological option. By feeding details into a computer and through the miracle of science, I would be matched to the dog breed most suited to me. Although tempted, I ultimately declined for fear that if I hit the wrong button I would instead be matched to someone on ‘Married at First Sight’.

We patted every kind of mutt imaginable. We even met a Chow Chow. I don’t like anything named twice. For this you can blame Duran Duran and Mr. Mister. My niece and the dog were exactly the same height and each stared into the eyes of the other. Clearly something special was happening.

And then the Chow Chow screwed up its Chow Chow face and let fly with an almighty sneeze, spraying a bucket of Chow Chow saliva all over my niece.

Both looked a little shocked. I would probably have looked embarrassed were it not for my Ace Frehley make up. The owner prepared to apologise but, instead, my niece tipped back her head and laughed so uproariously that the Chow Chow hid behind its owner.

And there it was – I’ve gone this long without a dog, I’ll admit I’m a little anxious. Something could go wrong.

But what’s the point in worrying? I should be more like my niece. Even if I do end up with a face full of saliva, the best response is to laugh. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

WHAT’S ON AT THE SOMERVILLE HOTEL

Music  Arts  Food BRITISH INDIA: THE LAST GANG IN TOWNS

By Neil Walker QUIETLY, just quietly, British India have become one of Australia’s best bands. While they haven’t fully crossed over into the mainstream yet, relentless touring in far-flung cities and towns and the subsequent good word of mouth has earned British India a well-deserved decade-long career and counting.

Many bands may pay lip service about working hard to win fans but even a quick glance at British India’s full-on tour schedule shows they mean it, man.

They’ll play venues anywhere, even if it’s “not a big college town” as Polymer Records promoter extraordinaire Artie Fufkin once put it.

More often than not, the four-piece from Mentone – singer and guitarist Declan Melia, guitarist Nic Wilson, bassist Will Drummond and drummer Matt O’Gorman - is out there playing live somewhere because they genuinely love it.

O’Gorman told Mint Magazine it’s actually British India’s lack of mainstream success which has made the band determined to work harder than ever, even after ten years on the road.

“We still like getting out of the house and touring. Speaking to a lot of bands … they say it would be good to tour less but we’ve still got the desire and the hunger.

“We still feel like we’ve got a bit to prove, going out and playing. We’ve never really had that big hit. We’ve done really well and can’t complain about anything [but] we’re all still very ambitious and we’re always wanting to get to the next level.”

Latest album Nothing Touches Me, their fifth, builds on the momentum of 2013’s Controller which saw songs such as Summer Forgive Me and I Can Make You Love Me playlisted by Triple M. The ‘alternative nation’ at Triple J has always supported British India since their debut single Outside 109 way back in 2005 but Triple M’s backing is a new development.

Tracks on Nothing Touches Me such as the opening Spider Chords, Suddenly and Jay Walker show – music journalism cliché alert – ‘a newfound maturity’ in British India’s sound with a mellower tone in contrast to earlier thrashier punk-like efforts.

All four band members write the songs and O’Gorman doesn’t reckon the band deliberately set out to make a “mellower” album. He said British India have their own studio “which is an old milk bar” and had 70 to 80 songs to pick from for Nothing Touches Me and some that didn’t make the final cut “are punk and grunge”.

“When it came to picking the songs [for the album], I don’t think it was our intention to be mellower but we picked the best songs we think we had.”

As for the rise in the band’s public profile, evident in the crossing over from ‘The Js to The Ms’, O’Gorman gives credit to Mushroom Records and its staff’s promotional legwork.

British India released their first three albums independently on Shock Records but suffered a major blow when that label went into receivership owing the band money.

“We were kind of in limbo … we recorded some demos and sent them out. Mushroom heard them and was keen to get on board.

“Since we’ve been dealing with Mushroom, it’s been amazing for a band like us to have ‘the Mushroom machine’ on board for the last two albums and that’s definitely been a big reason [for more success].”

The band hasn’t suffered a ‘I prefer their early stuff’ backlash from the hardcore British India faithful, according to O’Gorman.

“The older fans have stuck by us which we’re

PAGE 34

Southern Peninsula News 26 May 2015

quite lucky about and thankful for,” he says.

“It almost feels like we have two sets of fans.

We have the first three albums fans and then the Controller and Nothing Touches Me fans.

Sometimes we’ll play a couple of old songs and no-one will know them and then other times we’ll play Run The Red Light [from 2007’s Guillotine debut album] and people will go nuts.”

O’Gorman says British India are still committed to the album as a concept, even with the dawn of the music streaming era with listeners able to easily cherry pick individual songs to listen to.

“It’s weird how it’s all changing. We still feel pretty strongly about albums. It’s a lot different now even to when we started. You can put out a single rather than having to put out an EP. You can just literally write and record a song, send it off, get the OK from everybody and it’s out three weeks later.”

Royalties from music streaming services have become a bugbear for some major artists.

Radiohead’s Thom Yorke, for example, has heavily criticised the lack of money flowing into bands’ coffers.

How does a band at the level of British India feel about this?

“It’s not really about the royalties. The thing about Spotify is, it’s cheap and you can listen to whatever you want but it’s also great exposure to a lot of people that wouldn’t have heard your music. Bands like us, we don’t really make any money off CDs any more … live gigs are kind of our bread and butter.

“If someone can get on to us through Spotify

and come to a show then that’s exposure we wouldn’t have had before. It’s kind of swings and roundabouts in that you really don’t make a lot of money off it but you get exposure from it.”

From royalties to rock royalty is quite a trip.

Last year, the band met The Rolling Stones when they supported The Stones at NSW’s Hunter Valley.

“We got there about 3pm and were sitting in our small dressing room which was a little portable and everything around us is huge – the stage is massive, their backstage area is massive. We heard them soundchecking and thought ‘how good would it be to get out there and watch them?’”.

They “snuck out” and watched The Stones up close from the front row.

“It was a surreal moment - ‘Oh my god, we’re watching The Rolling Stones soundcheck right now’.”

O’Morgan had heard previous bands who’d supported The Stones hadn’t had a chance to meet the legends so British India were “stoked” when The Stones stopped to say “hello” on their way to the stage on the night of the big gig.

It’s been a long road on tours over the past ten years to get to where British India are at now, Stones gigs and all, and many of their early Australia music scene peers including The Vines and Jet have either fractured or fallen by the wayside. O’Gorman puts the secret of their relative longevity down to being school mates before the band existed.

“The fact it’s been the same four guys really does have a lot to do with it. You hear about bands that as soon as they lose a member … things can often go a bit pear-shaped and I think our kind of dynamic works because we all write. Everything is split four ways.”

And if any of the four decided to quit?

“I think everyone would call it stumps … we’re all great friends. We’ve never really had an argument before so we’re quite lucky with that as well.”

UK music journalist David Hepworth has a theory that the drummer is in fact the most important member of any band and things are never as good for a group if the drummer leaves.

Departures can be voluntary – think Reni of The Stone Roses or Bill Berry of REM – or involuntary - The Who’s Keith Moon and Led Zeppelin’s John Bonham spring to mind – but somehow the magic that binds a group together is gone.

When this is put to O’Gorman he is reluctant to give his opinion but does declare “that’s what I’ve been saying for years”.

“It’s in your hands … when the band reads the article they may look at me and think ‘Yeah, he’s alright – we can’t lose this guy. We should give him a raise’.” *British India’s latest album Nothing Touches Me is available now. The band will play live at the Pelly Bar at the Pier Hotel, 508 Nepean Hwy, Frankston on Friday 5 June, doors open 8pm, tickets from $27. See pierlive.com.au or call 03 9783 9800.

Champs vs champs: Peninsula Football League got up over Ovens & Murray Football League 11.14 (80) to 10.10 (70), a result that left Ovens & Murray player coach Brendan Fevola, above, dazed and confused. Pictures: Michael Kompa Photography

Champion team beats team of champions PENINSULA INTERLEAGUE

By Toe Punt PENINSULA Football League will get another crack at Geelong Football League for the top dog title after hanging on to beat Ovens & Murray Football League in Albury on Saturday.

The visitors beat their more fancied opponents for the third time in as many meetings after knocking them over at Frankston Park and Optus Oval in previous meetings.

Other than trailing by two points at quarter time, Peninsula FL controlled the game for most of the match.

There were some tense moments in the final quarter when Ovens & Murray made a charge in front of their home crowd.

Despite the home ground advantage and AFL talent including interleague coach Brendan Fevola, Matt Prendergast and Dean Polo, Peninsula Football League was able to hang on to record an 11.14 (80) to 10.10 (70) victory.

Peninsula FL set up the win with an explosive second quarter which netted 5.4 to one straight goal. The visitors coughed up a number of opportunities

in the first half and could have iced the game in the opening hour.

The visitors maintained their work rate in the third quarter and were still in command at the final change 7.14 (56) to 5.5 (35).

Edithvale skipper Stevey Mannix was doing the job for Peninsula FL through the middle of the ground and Langwarrin skipper Scott Sienkiewicz, who was awarded the VCFL medal for being the best player on the ground, was in and under and doing the hard things.

Peninsula FL went into the match with only one ruckman, Bonbeachâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Dylan Jones. The move paid off, allowing the visitors to have some run in their legs when it mattered most late in the game.

Former Richmond player and Edithvale-Aspendale star Brett Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Hanlon booted three goals for the winners while Pinesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Aaron Edwards, YCWâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Anthony Bruhn and Seaford coach Ben Crowe finished with two goals each. Crowe was even used in the ruck at times to gives Jones a spell.

Warwick Miller was named vice captain of the side and he did a superb job down back, while Morningtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

Adam Symes kept Fevola to just one goal.

Pinesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; gun Luke Potts had a heap of the footy through the middle of the ground and the composed Sam Gill from Mt Eliza was cool in the crisis and provided plenty of drive from half back.

It was an impressive win for the Peninsula FL, who went into the game without the likes of Ash Eames, Anthony Barry, Michael Gay, Justin Van Unen, Rohan Heasley, Matthew Clark and Brent Guerra.

Ovens & Murray, however, were at full strength. Last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s O&M medal winner couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make the final squad of 25.

According to Ovens & Murray media man Rob McKinlay, his league picked a team that was experienced and hardened. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Before the game we said that Peninsula FL was embarrassed last season against Geelong and would be looking to send a message,â&#x20AC;? McKinlay said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our boys have taken a pretty relaxed approach to the match and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really know what to expect from the opposition,â&#x20AC;? McKinlay said before the game.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to lose though because that drops us back to a five/ six ranking, which means its three years before you get another chance to challenge for the number one title.â&#x20AC;?

After the game, McKinlay said the loss would â&#x20AC;&#x153;smash the ego of the groupâ&#x20AC;?. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Fev (Brendan Fevola) said Ovens & Murray was the best league in Victoria in the lead up and now we drop back to the third tier. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He was contracted for three years by the league to take us back to number one. It will be interesting to see what happens now,â&#x20AC;? McKinlay said.

Whilst Ovens & Murray players were playing golf on Friday, Peninsula FL was travelling five hours up the Hume Highway to make a statement.

Before the game, Peninsula FL coach Troy Shannon said his charges hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t travelled the distance to embarrass themselves. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They (O&M) have picked 15 midfielders and generally a team full of talent,â&#x20AC;? Shannon said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have picked a team. Back pocket players in the pockets, wingers on the wing and forwards in their spots.

We didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want a team of midfielders

playing in pockets. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had two Mornington and two YCW players in our back six and two YCW players and two Pines players in our forward six. They play together and know what to expect. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our preparation started in the preseason and this is the reward for effort.

Geelong FL did the same last year and look what they did to us. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were as prepared as we could be.

We picked a team we were confident would be good enough to get the job done and we knew as much as we possibility could about the opposition.

We knew who their good players were, their capabilities and what we needed to do to stop them. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We knew they would come home strong because of the brand of footy we played for the first three quarters, however, I was always pretty confident we would hang on. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Any win is great but against quality opposition on their own ground is always sweeter. They deserved the win. The league deserved the win,â&#x20AC;?

Shannon said.

Nepean blows its chances in big showdown NEPEAN INTERLEAGUE

By Toe Punt NEPEAN Football League dropped its Victoria Country Football League ranking from 13 to 12 on Saturday despite going down in a thriller to Riddell Football League at Mecedon.

Wasted opportunities were the difference between the sides, Nepean FL having 31 scoring shots to just 24 but going down by three points, 15.9 (99) to 13.18 (96).

The visitors dominated possession time in their forward half in the final quarter, however, could only manage 4.6 to Riddell Football Leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 3.3.

Trailing by 12 points at three quarter time, the visitors quickly went three goals down in the opening minutes of the last when Jack Mills kicked the first of his two crucial last quarter goals.

Nepean FL booted four of the next five goals though and hit the front through Sorrentoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Leigh Poholke at the 22-minute mark.

Poholke finished with five goals, adding to the eight interleague goals he kicked last year.

Sharks teammate James Hallahan, who was sensational throughout the match, had the chance to extend the lead to a match winning eight points a short time later. Unfortunately the star midfielder sprayed the kick and it went through for a minor score.

Riddell took the ball up the other end of the ground and Mills took a strong contested mark at the 24-minute back.

He went back, drilled it and took back the lead for his side.

The home side stacked numbers at and behind the footy in a tense final four minutes, preventing Nepean FL to penetrate its attacking zone.

Ryeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Kris Bardon was awarded the VCFL medal for being the best player on the ground. Bardon kicked the opening goal of the match and added a second late in the quarter to give the visitors a four point break at the first change.

However, other than squandered opportunities, Nepean lost the game in the second quarter.

Riddell booted three unanswered goals in the first 14 minutes of the second quarter and finished with four of the five goals in the term. They led 8.5 (53) to 5.7 (37) at the main interval.

Luke Clark, who has been in superb form for Hastings this season, was well beaten by Brett Chambers, who won the battle for four quarters. Chambers, who has been in his sideâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best in four of five matches this season, took five telling marks in the last quarter which went a long way in Riddell FL winning the game.

Nathan Henley and Ryan Mullett lifted in the third quarter and helped Nepean FL draw within two points at the 13 minute mark, however, Riddell again answered with three quick goals in six minutes and pushed the margin back out to 17 points. A late goal to Poholke deep into time-on in the third gave Nepean FL a sniff in the last.

Nepean FL booted 8.11 to 7.4 in the second half. It had its chances, many of them considered in footy terms as â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;sittersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;.

Rye skipper Adam Kirkwood was a soldier all day for Nepean FL while Rosebud teammates Rob Forrest and Tom Baker were also outstanding over four quarters.

It was a game that got away for Nepean FL but - unlike regular leagues - thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no game next week to rectify the situation.

Close encounter: Nepean Football League went down to Riddell Football League by just three points.
