The good news is that tropical cyclones are becoming less frequent. The bad news is they are moving south! PHIL JARRATT reports on ground-breaking local research.
Story of a storm ser Island and wreak havoc on beaches and in beachside towns. Recently-published research, conducted by researchers from the University of the Sunshine Coast’s School of Science and Engineering, and supported by Noosa Council, has bad news for both groups. We can expect fewer cyclones but of greater intensity, and they will
form in progressively more southerly waters. But as bad as that may sound, the good news is that the ground-breaking research produced by our local scientists will help predict and prepare for cyclone events with greater knowledge of their patterns and coastal impacts. Noosa has a long history of coastal dam-
age from cyclones, with the worst being three consecutive TCs over the summer of 1947-48, which tore the roofs off the Laguna House and Beachhouse guesthouses, blew campers out of the Woods, knocked down the lifesavers’ tower and stole Main Beach. - Continued page 4

The editor’s desk The school holidays have just about arrived and despite the borders being closed word is there will be plenty of holiday visitors coming to enjoy some surf and sunshine. And who could blame them. This year with the ongoing changes to coronavirus regulations there will be fewer organized activities than usual to entertain the kids. Maybe that isn’t such a bad thing. Give them enough time and boredom and they’re sure to find some way to entertain themselves. Just look at the story of the Bush Boys of St Andrew’s College who created their own space that made it fun to go to school. Isn’t it something kids have done for generations? Or encourage them to read a book or two and let them escape into their imagination. If you’re concerned about the arrival of tourists and the chance of them bringing in the dreaded virus have a read about the cyclone research being done by scientist Javier Leon and it might give you something else to think about. With climate change causing cyclones to move south it might bring a few lifestyle changes - as well as a few more surfers.

State steps in on need for minutes
Tingira Crescent peak hour.

Beachside rat run By Margaret Maccoll A Sunrise Beach cafe owner is calling for a pedestrian crossing to be installed on Tingira Crescent after a detour turned the small street into a major highway. Chalet and Co cafe owner Will Lillecrapp started up a petition for a crossing after Noosa Council commenced construction on the Orealla Crescent Bridge on David Low Way and diverted traffic along Tingira Crescent. Mr Lillecrapp said the normally quiet beachside strip had become very busy particularly at peak times in the mornings and afternoons. He said he had lost business since the construction began which was made worse because Council prevented vehicles from parking on the cafe side of the road. “They haven’t had any consultation process, no impact plan,” he said. “There’s only one cafe here and I wasn’t consulted. We get tradies who drive past every day. Now they can’t stop and get their coffee and bacon and egg roll.” Mr Lillecrapp said Council responded to his calls for a crossing by saying it would create a bottleneck. “Isn’t community safety paramount?,” he said. “The (roadwork) signs say it’s local traffic only. People are trying to get to the beach. If someone does get run over who’s accountable for that.”
Roadworks take highway traffic down suburban street
Orealla Crescent bridge under construction
Residents and visitors described the small street traffic as “full on”. “We’ve been coming up here for 20 years,” Britt Groom said. “It’s a really quiet street. It’s not really equipped to be the highway.” Noosa councillor Amelia Lorentsen submitted a petition containing 289 signatures calling for a pedestrian crossing at last Thursday’s Ordinary Meeting. Cr Lorentsen described the street as a “high safety risk”. The $3.8 million Orealla Crescent Bridge replacement project is jointly funded by Noosa Council and the Australian Government, as
part of the Bridge Renewal Program. The construction of a stronger and wider bridge is set to benefit the local community and economy and is expected to take about five months with the highway closed until late August. Roadwork signs alert drivers of vehicles longer than 8.8m to use the Sunshine Motorway via Emu Mountain Road and Eenie Creek Road and encourage motorists to take alternative routes where possible. TransLink and BusLink services are operating as normal on the David Low Way detour along Tingira Crescent.
The Queensland Government is to impose on Noosa Council a requirement to take minutes of all committee meetings to enhance accountability and transparency after recently passing an Act in Parliament to strengthen local government accountability. The previous Noosa council fought long and hard against this when it was put forward - with considerable backing from the community - by then Cr Jackson in pursuing a more open and transparent council. “I am delighted that the State Government will mandate this obvious practice as part of its latest accountability and integrity legislation,” Ms Jackson said. “Even the smallest sports and social clubs take minutes of meetings as a permanent record of discussions and agreements. “It was a shame that the former Wellington council would not take this small step towards greater transparency but now the State government has acted anyway. “Meeting minutes are important legal and historical documents.” Ms Jackson said that under mayor Clare Stewart, the new council was pursuing a more open, progressive and independent course. “The community will welcome that at last it has a council with professional and ethical leadership. “A council open to its constituency is respected and trusted by them. And this is exactly the kind of council Noosa needs.”

Plea to keep herd in hay By Abbey Cannan A Maleny based animal rescue group is calling on the community for donations after the founder crashed head on with a cement truck while on a hay run. Despite Save A Cow Foundation’s Anthony Walsgott now being out of hospital, he is still bed-bound and has a long recovery journey ahead of him. With 80 head of cattle in five sanctuaries, Mr Walsgott is asking the community to help his partner, Julianne Smith to keep the foundation running. “She is having to manage the cows and work with volunteers and on top of that she’s having to look after me,” Mr Walsgott said. “She’s got a lot on her plate, so it’s a lot of a work for her and I’m just trying to keep out of the way.” Mr Walsgott said he was in a lot of pain after breaking bones in the crash and could only help with directions. “I have a high pain threshold but it’s just going to take time before everything heals,” he said. “I’m in bed and only out if I can try to work my legs a bit.” Mr Walsgott said he was stunned to wake up in hospital after the accident. “It was a shock waking up after four days of being in a coma and then realising what had happened,” he said. “Julianne had already started organising volunteers and fundraising. “Thinking about the cows and the positives of what we’re doing keeps me emotionally strong. “I think about what cows go through at slaughter houses, I think about their lives on farms and I think about what we’re doing for these cows, who are some of the lucky ones, who are being looked after and kept away from

“It’s over $1000 every week to care for the cows but there are expenses on top of that in terms of moving them around and things like fencing. “To get to the end of the year we’re going to need $1500 a week. I don’t have a Ute or anything like that so right now we’re completely at

Surge of interest in coastal impacts, in story of a cyclone From page 1 The 1950s were kinder but Cyclone Dinah in 1967 gutted the beach again (prompting the building of the rock wall) and the eye of Cyclone Daisy passed right over our town in 1972. As a visiting surfer, I had my first taste of Noosa at the tail end of Dinah, and drove overnight from my job in Canberra to catch Daisy in ’72. In those days we thought Noosa only broke during cyclones, and the locals wisely did nothing to educate us. After Cyclone David thrashed Main Beach and Hastings Street for more than a week in 1976, Noosa was spared significant cyclone damage until well into the 1990s, when the cycle returned. Now it is changing again. Authors of “Tropical Cyclone Impacts on Headland Protected Bays”, Daniel Wishaw, Javier Leon, Matthew Barnes and Helen Fairweather, have used this cyclone history to inform their detailed study of the impacts of Tropical Cyclone Oma in early 2019, using state-of-the-art technology to project likely future impacts. Parts of the report make for alarming reading: “Future climate projections indicate that erosion and sediment supply issues will be exacerbated in the Noosa region in multiple ways. The expected sea level rise for the region for the year 2100, is between 0.8m and 2m, which is likely to cause widespread coastal erosion of the Noosa beaches. Future projections for the eastern Australia wave climate indicate that Noosa will experience a greater proportion of east to north-east swell and a reduction in south-east swell, which is likely to increase erosion frequency and reduce accretion supply. Projections for tropical cyclone events for north-east Australia indicate a decrease in cyclone frequency, an increase in intensity and more southerly migration of cyclones, with a consequential increase in storm surge and extreme sea-states in the region.” TC Oma developed in the South Pacific basin near Vanuatu between February 7-15, 2019, reaching peak intensity on February 19 as a Category 3 system. From Vanuatu, Cyclone Oma tracked south-west, passing New Caledonia to the north-west and tracking towards the 4 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 26 June, 2020

ditions. While the Brisbane wave buoy recorded significant wave heights approaching 7 metres, in Laguna Bay, partially sheltered by Noosa Headland, the maximum modelled wave height was 2.1m. “Even so,” says Dr Leon, “maximum water runup was 3.8m above mean-sea-level (2.46 m extra water from the storm) and at 4.5m water would’ve gone over the parking lot and onto Hastings.” The report notes: “Due to the orientation of Noosa Main Beach, waves required less refraction and were observed to be larger than at Little Cove, with increased wave energy, combined with the strong longshore current, resulted in strong erosion of the beach.” Dr Leon told Noosa Today: “In the future, with rising sea levels, we should expect even medium intensity cyclones to flood Hastings Street if sediment remains the same. But sediment transport along the east coast is forecast to slow down. What we don’t really know yet is how this will affect Noosa. Daniel Wishaw’s
PhD is trying to figure out how that natural sediment headland bypassing is going to evolve in the future.” The information gathered during Oma, as well as historical comparisons going back to 1958 and computer modelling of the future, have enabled the USC researchers to take giant steps forward in analysing how man-made developments since 1958 have hindered Noosa’s ability to withstand major cyclone events, and what we need to do to protect our town and beaches as sea levels rise and weather patterns change. But the report concludes somewhat sombrely: “As this beach has the inability to recede, it is likely that future, permanent sea-level rise will result in more frequent and significant erosion events ... ” Read the full and first peer-reviewed scientific publication about Noosa coastal processes at https://www.mdpi.com/20763263/10/5/190/htm#
northern New South Wales coast, before being downgraded to a Category 1 system on the morning of February 22, approximately 800 kilometres east of Noosa. It then turned southeast and continued to lose intensity, before finally turning north as a tropical low. During Oma, USC’s researchers went to work around the clock. “Not much chance for me to get a surf in,” Dr Javier Leon lamented. Beach volumes were measured using surveygrade drones and GPS equipment. Wave data was collected from two sites operated by the Queensland Government offshore from Brisbane and Mooloolaba. Regional wave and wind conditions were applied using sophisticated SWAN (Simulated Waves Nearshore) computer modelling and relevant tidal information also input. Fortunately, Oma suddenly changed its track so that the observed and modelled wave conditions showed that Noosa Main Beach was protected from the most energetic con-

Holidays have us all on shore patrol By Margaret Maccoll As school holidays approach the focus hones in on the behaviour of visitors to Noosa North Shore. Noosa Police acting senior sergeant Troy Cavell said with police patrols, Queensland Parks and Wildlife rangers and locals on the lookout they didn’t expect many problems. Snr Sgt Cavell said Covid-19 restrictions had reduced the numbers of visitors to a quarter of normal availability. He said last weekend there were 680 people visiting the island with police patrolling from Noosa and Gympie and 95 per cent of people do the right thing but with 70km of beach to patrol they can’t be everywhere. Police, rangers and locals will be working together to keep a close eye on occurrences on north shore but he advised anyone seeing unwanted behaviour to video it and contact police who could follow up their information. Snr Sgt Cavell said police resources would be stretched over the holidays with Hastings Street Association reporting 100 per cent capacity on top of Noosa’s regular 50,000 population. Noosa MP Sandy Bolton said last weekend there were no traffic offences or unlicensed drivers and all breath tests were negative. Campers reported behaviour was good so thank you to all lookouts, she said. The situation was a far cry from the previous weekend that she described as “horrendous”. “There was a lot of people there doing the right thing but some did not respect the safety of others or the environment,” she said. Ms Bolton said the problems arose from a few people north of Teewah village driving dangerously and doing doughnuts on the sand. Local residents report some “idiocy in driving behaviour and stupidity relating to campfires not being properly extinguished” among a few campers north of Teewah. Locals say reducing the numbers of permits issued during holiday periods would ease the impact on the environment.

Ms Bolton said from advice received, the mullet fishing currently occurring on Noosa North Shore is a seasonal event operating under commercial fishing licences. “Concerns have been raised with our office during this period each year and to date, all activities raised of concern have been legal under the permits held, including the use of nets close to the river mouth and camping,“ she said. “A further concern this year relates to those crossing the border from NSW, however under the current border restrictions there is an exemption for those working in certain specific industries including commercial fishing.“ Of most urgent need is a toilet facility at First Cutting, locals say.

“Toilets at First Cutting to service the needs of the adventure camp, hotel, holiday makers, makes sense,” they say. “The lack of toilet and rubbish facilities along the beach is a problem for us and despite whatever poetry Council and QPWS say after a holiday period the “overflow” of both these is evident on the beach and people do spend time volunteering to clean up.” Ms Bolton said she wants to make sure the region is well managed so people can feel safe and enjoy themselves. Until Covid-19 restrictions are lifted everyone visiting Noosa North Shore needs a Restricted Area Access Permit and a normal Vehicle Access Permit and a camping permit if camping.

The Queensland Government’s plan for ongoing recovery from Covid-19 has continued this week, as another day of no new cases is recorded and active cases fall below five. As of Tuesday 23 June, there were two active cases, 1053 recovered patients, a total of 1066 cases, and 327,530 tests conducted. Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk said only one new case had been confirmed in a week when a major new phase of economic recovery stimulus was announced, along with the easing of restrictions on aged care, sporting crowds and funerals. The second phase of the plan to Unite and Recover for Queensland Jobs includes almost half a billion dollars to support our most vulnerable and to create jobs for tradies. Covid-Safe site-specific plans have been approved for Stadiums Queensland venues this weekend, allowing for crowds of up to 2000 people. Aged care residents can have two visitors at a time, including children, after restrictions were further eased this week, while up to 100 people can now attend funerals. Also announced this week: Two major productions to start again this month as the screen industry starts to recover. Boarding school students can return next term, after some restrictions are eased.

Hinterland Bush Links volunteers
Providing habitat for wildlife
Habitat links us to wildlife By Margaret Maccoll A Maleny-based organization that has engaged the community to connect wildlife corridors across the Sunshine Coast since 2012 will soon be operating in Noosa Shire. Hinterland Bush Links has been awarded $23,600 in Noosa Council funding to work in partnership with Noosa and District Landcare to replicate its successful Roving Restorers model in Noosa. Hinterland Bush Links founder and coordinator Susie Duncan said since the organization began they had restored wildlife habitat from Gympie to Caboolture and west to Nanango. Susie said the group identifies land that is privately or publicly owned that is important for linking corridors for wildlife and contacts the owners to assist those who are willing to join the program. “We set up Roving Restorers with organized volunteer groups who go out fortnightly to assist landholders with weeding and tree planting,” she said. “It’s been operating very well. “The volunteers learn a lot and the landholders learn a lot and they take that knowledge and experience on to their properties.”
“This work is critical to the recovery of threatened ecosystems and native plants and animals. “We are doing this restoration work to reverse the decline of many species as a result of habitat loss and fragmentation, and to assist their adaptation to Climate Change.“ Susie said the Environmental Grant projects funding from Noosa Council would enable them to engage someone to identify the important properties to operate on in the region and contact the landowners. “They may be adjacent to National Parks and can benefit from being well managed and contribute to wildlife corridors,” she said. Susie said the program also works in with the Land for Wildlife, a free voluntary conservation program that assists landowners to manage wildlife on their properties. She said there were a large number of Land for Wildlife properties in the region. “We have one year of funding and we hope we can apply again for another year,” she said. “In the long term we hope this will become sustainable funding to continue it ongoing as we have funding with Sunshine Coast Council.”

Environment grants raise conflict of interest questions By Margaret Maccoll

Noosa Council unanimously approved its Environment Project Grants at its Ordinary Meeting last Thursday following a debate at its General Meeting where a three-month deferment of grant payments was discussed. Councillors praised the work of volunteers engaged in the grant projects and again raised the issue of conflict of interest during the discussion. At Monday’s General Meeting Cr Brian Stockwell excluded himself after declaring a perceived conflict of interest (as defined in section 175D of the Local Government Act 2009) related to the application by Hinterland Bush Links Inc. (in partnership with Noosa and District Landcare). At the Ordinary Meeting on Thursday Cr Stockwell said he had reviewed the legislation and his connection to the organisation and felt he could participate in the meeting for the debate and vote. Cr Stockwell outlined his links to Noosa and District Landcare. As a Sole Trader in his business Watershed Australia, he has both been contracted by, and had subcontracted officers of, Noosa and District Landcare prior to becoming a Councillor. He is an ordinary mem-
ber of the group with long standing association including as a Council representative that assisted in its foundation in 1989. Cr Stockwell advised of his collegial relationships dating back to the 1980s with members of Landcare, his professional roles as a State Government public servant liaising with Landcare through those roles and his relationship with members of the current Landcare Committee. Cr Stockwell further advised that prior to him becoming a Councillor, he undertook a paid two day consultancy facilitating a meeting of Landcare members in 2015 and he had also subcontracted Landcare for a project. Cr Stockwell advised that there was no nexus between the work he had undertaken for Landcare prior to him becoming a Councillor and the project before Council for consideration. Cr Stockwell believed that he could consider this item impartially and in the public interest and requested to remain in the meeting room to participate in the debate and vote on this matter. Councillors voted in favour of Cr Stockwell remaining in the meeting. Only Mayor Clare Stewart voted against it. She said as a fairminded member of the community if asked whether Cr Stockwell could make an impartial decision relating to the organisation she would say no.

Launch in lockdown By Abbey Cannan Two Noosa residents have developed a new app that connects people who need their everyday laundry washed and ironed with neighbours who want to earn a bit of extra cash. Before officially launching, Craig Miles and Matt Lawton are seeking to recruit a dozen locals to put Airlaundr through its final paces. Co-founder Matt Lawton said they spent the best part of 18 months in development. “We think we’ve created something that is quick and easy to use but now we’d like to pay some trial users to help us prove it,” he said. Mr Lawton said they first developed an app for school lunches but abandoned the idea when government legislation made it “too hard”. “The idea for Airlaundr was then suggested by a friend and we thought it made a lot of sense,” he said. With the co-founders both working full time jobs and already having experience in digital production, they said nothing surprised them about the process of developing an app. “But juggling full time careers and family with this side hustle has taken a lot longer than we hoped,” he said. Mr Miles and Mr Lawton said they saw Noosa as a great place to launch the app later this year because a key target audience was families on holiday. They believe there are plenty of under-employed residents who can operate a washing machine and service those families when they start visiting the region again. “It works like a rideshare app so relies on us building a bank of washers before we go live in a suburb,” Mr Lawton said. “We’ve recruited lots of people in 4567 and 4573 to a waitlist of washers who are wanting to provide the service and I think the lockdown has helped us do that because people have been looking for new ways to earn money.” The app also has a social good element in

Airlaundr has already signed up a national cancer charity and a local Noosa sports club, Sunshine Beach Surf Lifesaving, but Lawton wants more good causes on board to help their fundraising efforts. “I think local schools and associations who
sign up can also help us drive app installs because they’ll promote it to their databases as an easy way to help them fundraise,” he said. “We’re hoping to really help strengthen communities.” Anyone interested in being paid to help test the app, should email their name and phone number to admin@airlaundr.com.

Inspired volunteers return The Hasting Street Noosa Inspiration Centre has welcomed back the army of wonderful volunteers. Tourism Noosa CEO Melanie Anderson said it was great to welcome the ‘vollies’ back to the centre. “They provide a friendly face and a warm welcome for our visitors and we are thrilled that the easing of restrictions has enabled us to open our doors again,“ Ms Anderson said. “They provide such an important role in welcoming visitors and providing them with advice on Noosa, whether its information on
where to stay, tours and experiences, restaurants and in general, provide that local knowledge that we know visitors are seeking out” said Ms Anderson. Seven year veteran Volunteer Neil Tomilson said it is wonderful to be back at the Centre. “I did not realise how much volunteering for Tourism Noosa meant to me,“ Mr Tomilson said.In addition to welcoming back the volunteers, the Centre has had some enhancements including more of a focus on brochures up front and centre for visitors to seek out information easily and the Centre now features an
indigenous mural designed by Kabi Kabi artist, Maurice Mickelo. Celebrating Noosa’s indigenous history, the artwork has been made possible by grant funding by the State Government and showcases the dreamtime story of Noosa, the creation of Noosa and Kabi Kabi country. The various colours of the installation represent different aspects of Noosa; green representing the hills and mountains of the area, yellow representing the sand and the beach, the blue is the ocean and the red ochre represent the river system running into the ocean.
The leaf coming from the river represents the paperback tree which is the main native tree of the area and important to the Kabi Kabi. Each of the animals represent the spirits of the area that the Kabi Kabi people descend from.

Direct service to Cairns Sunshine Coast Airport has joined forces with the Queensland Government and Alliance Airlines to launch a new service to Cairns, allowing Queenslanders in the far north and the south east to enjoy the best of both worlds direct from their doorstep. Flying three return services per week from 17 July, the route will provide a key connection between two of the state’s high value tourist destinations in time for the push for domestic travel, encouraged through Tourism and Events Queensland’s ‘Good To Go’ campaign. Sunshine Coast Airport Chief Executive Officer Andrew Brodie said the Cairns destination was highly requested by locals. “Cairns and far north Queensland are highly desirable destinations for Sunshine Coast people, and for the first time ever, this service will provide direct access to world renowned natural wonders like the Great Barrier Reef and Daintree Rainforest,” Mr Brodie said. “Expected to service up to 40,000 passengers every year, it is also great news for our local tourist operators, due to deliver a much needed $2.8 million injection of tourism spend into the Sunshine Coast region. “We also anticipate it will be popular among southerners who are starting to emerge out of isolation into a long winter, and now they’ll have the chance to experience two of Queensland’s premier destinations in the one trip, keeping them in the Sunshine State for longer.” Alliance Airlines Chief Executive Officer

Lee Schofield said the airline was delighted to partner with Sunshine Coast Airport and the Queensland Government to launch the new route. “We know that residents, tourism operators and the broader businesses community in both regions have been calling for a link for many years and we’re proud to be able to bring this to fruition,” Mr Schofield said. “As a 98 percent Australian and New Zealand owned airline headquartered in Brisbane and with operational bases in Cairns, Townsville and Rockhampton, Alliance is pleased to be playing our part to drive new visitation to these two Queensland regions that have been so significantly impacted by Covid-19.” Visit Sunshine Coast Chair David Ryan and Tourism Noosa Chief Executive Officer Melanie Anderson said the flights were a welcome addition and would provide an opportunity for more Queenslanders to visit the broader Sunshine Coast and Noosa regions. “We expect there will be considerable interest from the north Queensland market as the Sunshine Coast offers a distinctly different holiday experience from what they normally experience, and it will also help facilitate business travel and conferences in future,” Mr Ryan said. “We look forward to welcoming our northern friends and we encourage our own locals to support Queensland tourism and discover the Cairns and Port Douglas region,” Ms Anderson said.

No public say on budget The newly-appointed Noosa Council failed to deliver the previous Council’s promise to consult with the community on the 2020-21 Budget. Councillor’s at last Thursday’s Ordinary Meeting voted unanimously to defer community feedback until the budget review in November and consultation until the 2021-22 Budget. Councillors blamed the COVID-19 pandemic for forcing “a rethink on a much wider consultation process” and the need to adopt the budget on 10 July to maximise interest earnings.
“Unfortunately given much of the focus has and continues to be about dealing with the coronavirus pandemic, it was impractical to conduct an extensive consultation process involving business, residents and community groups for the 20-21 budget,” Mayor Clare Stewart said. “But there’s still a strong commitment from all councillors to get community views in the most meaningful and measured way that provides tangible outcomes.” Cr Stewart said the budget processes normally start in November but the new Council began work on it in May and there was not the
opportunity to engage with the community. However Cr Brian Stockwell said work on the budget did start in November but it was thrown in the wastebasket in February. Cr Stewart said Council would have more clarity on finances in the next financial year to understand the repercussions of the coronavirus. She said the community would have the opportunity to provide feedback in October for inclusion in the budget review in November 2020. “If there’s an allocation of additional funding, we’re keen to hear what areas the com-
munity would like those funds directed to,” she said “Conversely, if there’s less income due to COVID, we will ask the community what services or expenditure should be reduced.” A further part to the community engagement centres on seeking input on the type of process the community considers as appropriate for future budgets. “There are a myriad of ways we could engage with the community, but it’s important to establish a process that is driven by the community.” Cr Stewart said.
Noosa doctor’s reminder on bowel cancer dangers By Abbey Cannan With June being Bowel Cancer Awareness Month, Noosa Outlook Medical Centre GP Dr Claire Lawrence is encouraging people in the community to take responsibility of their health. Dr Lawrence said bowel cancer was Australia’s second deadliest cancer, affecting one in 18 males and one in 26 females in Australia. “The National Bowel Cancer Screening saves lives and it is still sending out test kits during the COVID pandemic,” she said.”Ninety per cent of bowel cancers are successfully treated if found early but fewer than 40% are detected early. “The guidelines recommend screening every two years, starting at age 50 and continuing to age 74. “The test detects blood that cannot be seen with the naked eye.” Dr Lawrence said like any screening test, it was for people who do not have any symptoms. “If you are obviously bleeding, or have had a change in your usual bowel habit, then don’t participate in the scheme, instead you should book an appointment to see your GP to decide a management plan,” she said. “More advanced symptoms of bowel cancer may include: unexplained weight loss, persistent abdominal pain, incom-
plete emptying of the bowel or generalised weakness. Again any such concerns should be discussed with your GP. “No one understandably likes the idea of a colonoscopy, but if indicated it means that the whole of the large bowel can be visualised and if any abnormalities are seen, they can be biopsied or removed at the same time.” Dr Lawrence said you are given a sedative that makes you forget that you’ve even had the procedure. “Family history of bowel cancer is important to know as having members of your family with a history puts you at an increased risk, compared to the general population,” she said. “The majority of people with bowel cancer, however, have no family history. “You could be at risk if you are over 40, have a poor diet, currently/previously smoked or exceed the recommended alcohol intake.” Dr Lawrence said talk to your GP if there is a family history, as screening may have to start earlier than the general population. “So we know 2020 has ‘given us all the sh*ts’ but let’s not put our head in the sand; sample your stool, prod your poo, scoop your poop, however you want to say it,” she said. “Take an active role in your health by participating in the National Bowel Cancer Screening Program.”

Masterplan for hinterland By Rose Astley

Tourism Noosa, the Noosa Biosphere Reserve Foundation (NBRF), Noosa Landcare and the Noosa Council have teamed up to introduce a Masterplan that will see the region’s trails revitalised. The Masterplan strategy is on ongoing plan to improve and upgrade the Noosa Trail Network, working sustainably with the Kabi Kabi original land owners to identify new areas to link trails. The plan covers a diverse range of eight scenic trails and over 130 kilometres within the Noosa Biosphere Reserve which include national parks, state forests and private property throughout the region. Tourism Noosa CEO Melanie Anderson said the initiative is designed to shine a spotlight on the region’s hinterland. “It’s been an exciting journey but we have a lot of work ahead of us in terms of implementation and grant funds to apply for the full $6 million role out, but this is an initiative that will be imperative for our region. “Before Covid started tourists were telling us they wanted that nature based experience, and now that Covid has hit it’s even more important, and this is what this program is designed to do - work with our key bodies, our residents and build something that’s for all of us to enjoy,” Ms Anderson said. Newly appointed Councillor and member of the NBRF Tom Wegener spoke passionately about the project which will see Pomona, Kin Kin, Cooran and Cooroy highlighted by the trails. “The biggest idea for Noosa is enjoying the environment by the residents, and with the
new Masterplan (people) can walk, gallop or ride down the trails looking out at the flowers, the trees, the environment and enjoying it. “That’s the immediate benefit value to the community - is just simply enjoying the environment and the Masterplan truly enhances this,” Cr Wegener said. “An important part of this plan is education, so if you walk through the trails, the trees and the flowers, we see things and we want to learn about them, learn their names and history. “My ultimate aspiration for these trails is to learn the Kabi Kabi names of things, learn the stories and the history and perhaps just for a moment see through the eyes of the Kabi Kabi people,” Cr Wegener said. Chair of the NBRF Rex Halverson said the foundation is a proud key partner in the Masterplan, saying the idea will benefit the community socially and economically while protecting the natural environment. “An improved Noosa Trail Network will enrich the experience locals and visitors alike have with the natural landscape of the Noosa Biosphere Reserve. “The Masterplan also presents innovative opportunities to foster nature-based tourism, biodiversity management and education through improved land management and infrastructure,” Mr Halverson said. Noosa Mayor Clare Stewart said Council is excited to be part of the launch. “We are thrilled to be a key partner in the development of this draft Masterplan, which will provide significant economic benefits to our hinterland region,” Cr Stewart said. Tourism Noosa and Noosa Council will apply for government grants to help fund the $6 million project.

Paddling 26km for charity By Abbey Cannan One year down the track, Noosa resident Andy Fermo has made immense progress after forming his registered charity Invisible Injuries. What started out as an idea to create awareness and improve the lives of others also suffering from PTSD, has in turn helped the military veteran focus on his own self-care. The Covid-19 pandemic hasn’t stopped his charity from reaching people through their online presence, also having planned an active collaboration project to raise funds to create their new website. Andy said they formed a four-person training squad with Activate Body trainer Tom Molloy, who together will be paddling 26km in the Virtual Molokai to Oahu paddle board race. “The 26km open ocean course (depending on weather) will be from just north of Teewah or from Marcoola to Noosa Heads Surf Club on Sunday 26 July,” Andy said. “Tom approached me because we had been talking about getting a regular training squad in Noosa. “He also believes in Invisible Injuries charitable cause and wanted to collaborate on a project that can assist us with fundraising and brand awareness with a specific goal of the fundraising which is to create an (all-in-one) online database resource which will be the hub for all our programs/activities and stories and the connector for our target audience to resources locally and nationally.” The squad has committed to paddle sessions twice a week, with Andy welcoming anyone with a race board wanting to train to join them on Wednesdays from 4pm at Lions Park Noosa. “If they want to have a go I can organise for some demonstrator SUPs so they can have a paddle around Noosa Sound while we train. The use of the SUPs will be free,” he said. Along with their SUP initiative, Andy said they’ve launched several activities and programs throughout the past year, including; an Invisible Injuries Podcast, a workout of the day, and regular DJ Antix contributions for mindfulness through music. “We’re working with the Thomson Institute (The Alliance Sunshine Coast) for suicide 12 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 26 June, 2020

With all the work he’s been putting in, Andy said creating Invisible Injuries has given him purpose, motivation and inspiration to help other veterans and himself. “Volunteering with other ex-service organisations has given me the ability to network and have consistent social/meaningful engagement with my peers to reduce social isolation,” he said. “It’s allowed me to face my fears, accept emotions and talk about feelings in a positive, constructive, meaningful and blokey way. “It’s allowed me to focus on my own selfcare and mental health to be in a much more stable state.” Invisible Injuries will be launching their

Noosa’s Queen of Gossip By Phil Jarratt Susie Osmaston, now 78 and looking and sounding a decade younger, sums up her Cassandra years thus: “I met the deadline for 23 years, through desertion, near-suicide, falling in love, marriage, honeymoons, falling out of love, eloping, a hysterectomy, but pneumonia was a bit much. Then I tottered downstairs to write the last column, and signed off with, ‘It’s time to smell the roses’.” And that’s pretty much what she and husband John have been doing for the past decade - his golf, their bridge days, and the shared joy of grandkids. But to many long-term Noosa residents, Susie will always be “Cassandra”, the much-loved and sometimes-feared compiler of Noosa’s only real gossip column, starting back in the days when the town was still small enough to wander down Hastings Street at dusk on a Friday and naughtily note who was drinking or dining at close quarters with whom. But, over a glass of rose on her verdant garden deck, Susie says she never operated like that, was never so brazen. “I had another job so I had to exercise a bit of decorum.” Indeed she did. In the ‘80s and ‘90s Noosa was a hotbed of political intrigue (some say it still is) with environmental and development lobbies at each other’s throats, and for much of this time Susie was in the thick of it, working first for local State MP Gordon Simpson and later for Mayor Noel Playford at Noosa Shire Council. At a time when it was crucial for Noosa environmentalists to get a hearing with the LNP government, she was the conduit. But Susie O has been in the thick of the action for most of her colourful life. Born in Perth as Singapore fell (a correlation her mother never let her forget), she enjoyed a blessed childhood in the leafy glades of Mosman Park until her branch manager father (“Perth was a branch manager town in those days,” she recalls) was recalled to head office in Sydney when she was an only-slightly rebellious teenager at a time when rock and roll, television and the Olympics combined to drag Menzies’ Australia into the modern world. She won a scholarship to university but her father insisted she do a secretarial course first and review her academic options in a year. Says Susie: “By the time next year came around I was working for a psychiatrist, romantically involved and going out to dinner parties with fascinating and exciting people, so there was no way I was going back to school.” Instead she went to Melbourne with the first of her “three-and-a-half” husbands, a part-French much older gentleman whose hyphenated full name was too long for the marriage certificate but who wowed her with his savoir faire and his way around a wine list. Unfortunately, No. 1 was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, and the need for a decent wage to get through the grueling carer years saw Susie take up her first position in proximity to men in power, working with the publisher of The Age newspaper, Ranald Macdonald. She remembers holding a rampaging Rupert Murdoch at bay when he was trying to storm The Age office with an offer to buy, just one of the occasions that brought her closer to the quirky genius Macdonald. After the death of her husband, she met “the half” and began holidaying at his family’s Gippsland seaside cottage, where over Christmas the Melbourne smart set would gather to swim, eat and drink. Here she met the Amos family, who had recently made the sea-change to a place called Noosa, and loved it. Following several exploratory visits, Susie and the half had a huge caravan towed up the highway, bought two blocks on a bare subdivision called Noosa Sound, and vowed never to leave Noosa, if not each other. Susie took a job as a receptionist at Pine Trees Resort on Hastings Street, joined the party circuit with the likes of local larrikins Mumbles Walker, Billy Wardell and Debbie Higgin, and in the fullness of time eloped with Michael Prenzler, whose passion for her was only exceeded by his passion to own an FM radio licence. With investor friends, they bought 4GY and got the licence, but Gympie didn’t like interlopers so they sold for a healthy profit two years later and took a six-month sabbatical in Europe, but the marriage didn’t last. Back in Noosa, Susie began contributing snippets to a social column that Noosa News editor Julie Lake compiled. Soon she was contributing so much that she was asked to take it 14 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 26 June, 2020

Susie says she only got in trouble once, when a waiter passed on a detailed report of shenanigans at a private party, which she gleefully reported.

The Hotseat Phil Jarratt The other night, while we were sleeping, SANDY BOLTON MP was sitting at her Parliamentary desk going over the last of 229 amendments to a bill she cared about deeply, as the sun came up over Brisbane. The only true independent in the Big House, the Member for Noosa has no support staff so sleep deprivation is the norm during sitting weeks, but if there is one thing the Queensland Parliament has learnt in Sandy’s first term it is this: never under-estimate her capacity for hard work or her strength of purpose. Phil Jarratt sat her in the Hotseat. My research reveals that you’re a surfie chick from Gosford. Well, certainly born in Gosford, but I wasn’t a surfie, even when we lived at Evans Head. I come from a sole parent family and my mother was incredibly hardworking. She’d come from multi-generational poverty and hardships, so in an era when there was no welfare, she did whatever work it took to put food on the table, and a roof over our heads. Sounds like you’re a chip off the old block. My mother didn’t know anything else except to work hard. She taught us that whatever was needed to be done, you just got in and did it. She built up and sold businesses, including the jetty at Evans Head. We then jumped in a caravan and moved to Sydney’s western suburbs. Mum worked as a PA, a contract milker and house painter so that she could train horses. I grew up with many smells ... cleaning fish, turps and yes, manure! Did you have siblings? Yes, a brother and two sisters but much older, so by the time I was five they’d left home and it was just Mum and me. I left school early to contribute to the household, working in a variety of jobs, then from 18 in hotel management until at the grand old age of 22 I needed a break to see a bit of Australia. I had $100 and a backpack. Mataranka in the Territory was where I met my future husband and I found myself living on a million acres just below Arnhem Land. Suddenly I’d gone from high heels and a suit to life of beauty and isolation. After the first bub, to Brunette Downs, then by the time we were north of Julia Creek, we had three. During the annual visits back to Sydney, there was always a magical green patch. And after being in drought for three years, with our two oldest never seeing rain, this green patch on the old Bruce Highway at Cooroy became a beacon. That is how we discovered Noosa, and soon after bought a derelict old farmhouse on 60 acres at Kin Kin. That was 29 years ago. What was your first local job? Setting up the Kin Kin Village Voice with a $20 contribution from the guys at the sawmill to pay for the photocopying. It was basic but had the contact numbers for services and all the stuff you need in a small community. I just loved getting the stories from the old-timers. When were you inspired to run for office? A combination of things. When I came to Noosa there were very few jobs, so I took whatever was available including dishwashing, volunteered and when working for not-for-profits became very much aware of problems such as housing and domestic violence here. I wasn’t interested in politics per se, it was more that I wanted to resolve and couldn’t get any answers how to fix, though heard a lot of reasons how we couldn’t. To get answers I realised I needed to understand by getting inside the system, and so began the journey once our children had fled the coop - becoming a Councilor, running for Mayor and missing out, then running for State Parliament and getting in. When you were campaigning for the seat of Noosa in 2017, you said, “It seems no party will have a clear majority ... independent members like me will have the opportunity to exercise real influence.” Labor did win a clear majority, but have you been able to exercise real influence? When I ran I set out with six commitments to the electorate, and by the time the election
comes around I will have nearly delivered on all of them. However, it wasn’t about influence. It was persistence and hard work to put cases forward effectively without denigrating others. The day you see me throwing rocks, you’ll know something is very, very wrong. Do you sometimes feel as an independent that it’s you against the world? It was very daunting at first because there is nowhere to hide, and your every vote is read out, unlike when you are with a party, and yes, there were boos at the start! You have to take responsibility and explain how you got to that decision, and the research is extensive to get to that point. With difference of opinions, tackle the issue, not the person. Looking back on your time on Council and in the State House, how does the level of nastiness and the quality of debate compare? As a Councillor I’d have to go and lick my wounds out on the veranda after a vigorous debate, however it never got personal! At State level, I don’t support this idea of dragging the other side down to make a point, and wrote to the Premier and Speaker about this, as we have schoolchildren watching and listening. We have to set an example if we’re ever going to stop the bullying and harassment that is being experienced at all ages. You can debate with respect, hold the government accountable and call out the porkies without denigrating people in Chamber or outside on social media.
How has Noosa coped with Covid? I’ve been so proud of this community. It was like the bushfires all over again, except it has gone on for months and no one could see it or smell it. I saw the incredible selflessness of residents getting on and doing what had to be done. It was a defining moment for Noosa. Our health and businesses were at stake, but as I did my rounds I found that people were committed to be safe and responsible, supportive and resilient. What about campaigns? You’ve been through a few now. Any dirty pool? Oh, horrendous, where do you start? But I’ve always been clear during campaigns and elections. Our team has a code of conduct, and an ethos to lead by example. Never engage in those dirty tactics, never denigrate. You don’t have to do that to win an election, and I think I’ve demonstrated that. I haven’t had time to think about the (October Queensland) election yet, but I will be asking the same of candidates as I have before, for everyone to demonstrate how you can have an election that inspires others to follow suit. So should we open the border? There are components that are confusing everyone regarding the indicators that are being used for that determination. Understandably there is caution from residents and business people, because they don’t want to go backwards. But they’re confident, they’ve worked hard to set up their strategies to manage outbreaks, and they’re ready and looking forward to July 10. Friday, 26 June, 2020 NOOSA TODAY 15

Runners join colour craze A call has gone out to Sunshine Coast schools to take part in the hugely popular School Fun Run Crazy Colour Day, and Noosaville State School is the first to get on board. School Fun Run is an organisation helping to bring health, exercise, and inclusion to school fundraising efforts around the country through their highly interactive and experiential Fun Runs. This November, the organisation is looking to help schools in the Sunshine Coast region turn students into running rainbows and give school communities something to look forward to after a year of uncertainty brought on by COVID-19. School Fun Run have launched a campaign for the occasion and have aptly called it ’Rainbow After the Storm’ to help spread the word and promote the colourful event. Director of School Fun Run, Brendan Hopp said they want to get as many schools on the Sunshine Coast as possible holding a Crazy Colour Day in the first week of November. “It’s all about showing Sunny Coast kids that their future remains colourful, bright and vibrant as together we paint the Sunny Coast Rainbow,“ he said. The lead up to the event will be promoted as a way to help boost community wide spirit on the Sunny Coast. It will place a special focus on reconnecting school communities, and raising much needed funds following the COVID-19 school shutdowns. Noosaville State School and Suncoast Christian College are the first two schools to get behind this cause. Principal Suncoast Christian College Greg Mattiske said, “After everything that has happened this year, we are delighted to bring joy, fun and a sense of normality back to our students with our Crazy Colour Day this year.“ “We have held this event before and we think it’s a perfect way to achieve these outcomes while raising some extra funds for our school at the same time. I hope all schools join us in 2020 as we paint the Sunshine Coast rainbow.“ Collectively, schools have raised over nine million dollars through the School Fun Run program last year alone. Lindfield Public School, Social Committee, Annabelle Woodhouse said, “It’s been so good to get the kids outside, laughing again and having fun; taking away the seriousness that’s covering the whole globe at the moment.“ “Our principal set a fundraising goal of $70,000, which we thought was crazy - but we reached it and more. “With the help, support and vision of School Fun Run, our students raised $91,858. “We couldn’t be more thrilled with the outcome; we’ll definitely do it again in the future.” Primarily a school fundraising initiative, the Crazy Colour Day was developed to replace dated and unhealthy fundraising tactics like the chocolate drive, promote healthy lifestyles for children, and bring colour back into school fundraising. “As childhood obesity rates continue to rise, it’s critical that companies working in the
Noosaville State School and Suncoast Christian College are the first two schools to get behind this cause. School System shift to meet demands for better products and services that empower entire families to embrace wellness and active lifestyles. At School Fun Run we’re always looking for new ways to do this while increasing net fundraising yields for our partner schools,” Hopp said. School Fun Run is committed to not just promoting healthy, happy children in schools, but is dedicated to keeping children safe, which is why they have partnered with the
Daniel Morcombe Foundation. The Daniel Morcombe Foundation, which was established to make a safer community for Australian children, became an Official Charity Partner of School Fun Run in 2019; a partnership they are excited to grow as they support more and more schools across the country. “School Fun Run connects with over 350,000 primary school aged children annually, so this partnership is a perfect fit for both organisations. School Fun Run could not be
prouder to help them ‘Keep Kids Safe’.” Hopp said. Annually, School Fun Run raises around $125k for Bruce and Denise Morcombe to continue their son’s legacy. Schools have found organising a Crazy Colour Day to be one of the easiest fundraising endeavors, with ongoing support, direction, and none of the upfront costs that traditional events, such as school fetes, can attract.
Snapshots of NDSHS’s teachable Covid-19 moments Noosa District State High School students have had a challenging Term 2, with the pandemic disrupting classroom teaching and learning, forcing teachers to become creative and flexible in the delivery of their lessons, with big changes and adaptations made to the parameters surrounding the classwork and assessment instruments set. One of the ways Year Level Coordinators maintained engagement with students in the at-home learning environment was by creating fun online tasks, which involved the posting and sharing photographs each week that were related to different themes. Students showcased their non-school uniform items, relishing in the opportunity to don crazy socks, odd hair styles and colourful attire. The students of essential workers were rewarded for their efforts at school with a celebratory lunch of party pies and hot chips. Some of the work produced across many subject areas since the pandemic began ad16 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 26 June, 2020
dressed the issues and feelings the students wanted to explore and bring to light. Year 11 art students Xali McDermott and Grace Hehir used Covid-19 in their art work submission. “The artwork is supposed to relate to decadence in the time of the pandemic (including sleeping in a lot, eating constantly and falling out of schedule). It can be personal or just generally what we see the people around us doing,” Xali said. A large number of Year 11 film students chose to base their short film assessment item around time spent in isolation, and a group of Year 11 drama students chose to create a dramatic concept around the effects of COVID-19 on the community, culminating in an annotated digital storyboard of ten key moments from a verbatim performance. Year 10 Drama students discussed ideas on how to use the pandemic to inspire their 21st Century takes on Shakespeare, with Macbeth’s witches in a ‘Covid Coven’ represented with
face masks and medical gowns and projected onto the state in a Fox News style broadcast complete with a signing interpreter dressed as an unworldly entity. English students completed a reflection on their time in isolation, with the Year 9 students looking into their own behaviours and changes as part of the Memoir Unit and the Year 11 students developed themselves and their family into characters they wrote about. English Head of Department Alarna Priestley said the real reason behind these tasks was to provide the students with a voice to express how they were feeling during such unprecedented times. “While for some students (those living in hinterland or rural properties) there was little difference, other students were impacted greatly by stress, finances and close family settings. I thought it was an important exercise as surely no one wants to return to ‘business as usual’ without having developed some new insight into themselves or the world around us,”
Ms Priestley said. Year 11 and Year 12 Social and Community Studies students wrote letters to the elderly in local communities to reach out and provide friendship in the form of ‘pen pals’ during a time when many older people in the community were forgotten and left alone for their safety. Year 11 Social and Community Studies student Gaby Davey said the letter writing was rewarding. “I hope our letters brighten up their day,” Gaby said. Year 7 student Dusty Marsh used the time in isolation to research all he could about the pandemic and he created a PowerPoint under his own volition to educate himself and his friends. “I just created it as a personal project,” Dusty said. The pandemic has certainly resulted in some invaluable teachable moments for the staff and students that won’t be forgotten.

Drivers toe the line By Abbey Cannan As static roadside tests resumed across Queensland due to easing restrictions, Noosa Heads Police Acting Senior Sergeant Troy Cavell said the large majority of drivers in Noosa were doing the right thing with their driving behaviour. Sgt Cavell said more than 350 random breath tests had been conducted in the Noosa region since the resumption on Friday 12 June. Out of those 350 tests, seven drivers in the Noosa region tested positive to drink driving, with two drivers testing positive to drugs. Impaired driving, one of the Fatal Five, remains a significant contributor to lives lost
and serious injuries on Queensland roads. With the recommencement of static breath testing sites, motorists will be tested any time, anywhere. Sgt Cavell said as the ‘Fatal Five’ road safety campaign has been going for many years, people often become complacent. “...But there are always media reports on drink driving, driving whilst tired and all drivers are aware of the hazards,” he said. “Driving with a mobile phone is also a major concern although it may be reducing in Noosa area. “Drivers attitude or disregarding laws are to blame for their decision making and behaviour.”
Sgt Cavell said police continued to conduct pro-active enforcement during Covid-19 restrictions with business as usual in completing targeted patrols. “The static sites for traffic interceptions recommenced last week after restrictions were eased,” he said. Across Queensland, more than 22,000 random breath tests were conducted from Friday 12 June through until midnight Sunday night. More than 225 drivers tested positive to drink driving over the three-day period. Around one in three motorists tested positive to drugs as nearly 300 roadside drug tests were completed across the same period.
Sharing culture at Sunshine Beach school Sunshine Beach State School recently celebrated Reconciliation Week by completing various activities within the classroom and on the playground. 2020 marks the twentieth anniversary of the 2000 reconciliation walks across the nation when families from all backgrounds came together in to walk together and show their support for a reconciled Australia. Much has changed since that year and the school was determined to ensure that this important part of Australian history is never forgotten. Classes were buzzing with various activities from storytelling, song, artwork, and technology to didgeridoo playing in the playground. Children were able to understand the significance of this era in Australian history immersing themselves in it. The children learnt about the colours and features of the Aboriginal, Torres Strait Islander and the Australian flag. Unfortunately, due to current COVID restrictions, no visitors were allowed within the school; however many online stories were viewed. Stories about Sorry Day and the injustices faced by indigenous people in the past and current day were discussed, with children making plans for how we can make changes now and for the future. One teacher even shared his skills with the didgeridoo! Cameron Gibson, while travelling Australia, learned to play with a cardboard textile roll. ‘I am totally self-taught and enjoy playing in a contemporary style recreationally.’ While listening to his talents, groups of children used ochre to paint images on their faces and skin within the school’s playground. Indigenous students were eager to paint the faces of other students with traditional ochre and explain the significance. Year 2 student Jahleice said he enjoyed celebrating the important event. “I like painting other people’s face - it was fun,” Jahleice said. “It’s important to celebrate Reconciliation Week so we remember not to hurt anyone.” Within yarning circles, children made plans
Owner in mourning at dog attack By Abbey Cannan Noosa Council Local Laws officers are investigating the circumstances surrounding an alleged dog attack in Pomona. Local Laws Manager Phil Amson said council received a complaint of an incident which occurred last Thursday. “Our officers are currently investigating,” he said. Mr Amson said council had recorded 80 dog attacks in the past 12 months. “Forty-seven of these attacks have been on other animals, with 33 on people,” he said. “Attacks are distressing for all involved so it’s extremely important for dog owners to know their responsibilities under the law, to avoid any potential incident.”

Comic genius with an itch to scratch Fleabag ABC Comedy Thursday 9.30pm and Iview The series, hailed by many critics and fans around the world as pure genius, has finally made it free-to-air to Australia. Adapted from Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s own stage play, the first series of this comedy was big in the UK and an underground success in this country. But it is this second and final series that really struck a chord with critics and fans alike and broke big in the US where it scooped Emmy awards by the handful. So what makes it so good? Waller-Bridge stars as a free-spirited and sexually active, angry and confused young woman living in London with the dysfunctional of all dysfunctional families and dealing with the aftermath of the death of her best friend and business partner. Set a year after the first series, this one starts with a quick recap of series one to bring those who didn’t see it up to date and then we are into the action. Waller-Bridge’s character - known as Fleabag, and never given a formal name - is standing in a restaurant bathroom wiping blood from her nose. Slowly we backtrack through the evening to discover just how she got there. It’s a night out with her family to celebrate the forthcoming wedding of her father (Bill Paterson) to her god-mother (Olivia Coleman) with the happy couple and her sister Claire (Sian Clifford) and her pompous American husband Martin (Brett Gelman). The sixth person is an opinionated, crass and open man - someone who almost seems to be Fleabag’s perfect match. But in reality - as she discovers - he’s the priest set to marry her father. Andrew Scott is perfect as the kind, caring and dysfunctional priest and it’s his addition to the cast that lifted this second series from clever to compelling. Fleabag is a lesson in comedy - the character doesn’t have a formal name but because she breaks the fourth wall often to look or address the viewer she is so well-rounded and filled out that she’s real. There are moments of devastating realness that leave us gasping and there are moments when you laugh out loud. It’s both real and hyper-real and compelling to the point that it’s probably worth watching

He was known as Peter Perfect - and is widely considered to be the best race driver this country has ever produced. But Peter Brock was a complicated man, at times very far from perfect as this feature-length documentary written and directed by Kriv Stenders (Danger Close: The Battle of Long Tan, Red Dog) shows. Stenders doesn’t try to sugar-coat Peter Brock instead taking an open and honest approach to his subject matter and by the end of it you are left of a well-rounded intimate and personal portrait of a man who was both a natural genius on the race track and flawed human being like the rest of us. He lets Brock and the people who knew him best bring his story to life with very candid interviews with his family, all three of his main partners, his colleagues, opponents and media around him. Stenders is helped in his quest to bring us the story of the King of The Mountain - warts and all by a treasure trove of rare archival material - both on and around the racetrack and from his brothers and early life. What is ultimately produced by the interviews from key players including Bev Brock and her children, brothers Lewis and Phil, Craig Lowndes, Dick Johnson, Alan Moffatt and key Holden team members is a picture of the past 60 years in Australia and the part Peter Brock played in it and why he was beloved by so many despite his flaws and mis-steps. Made for the cinema, Brock: Over the Top is available to rent from Friday, July 3 on Apple TV, Fetch, Foxtel Movies, Google Play, Sony PlayStation and Microsoft Xbox. - Tania Phillips
MUSIC
Bob Dylan transcends generations with new album There are some musicians that transcend generations, that intrinsically become part of culture - whether you listen to them or not. Bob Dylan is one of those musicians with a name that is instantly recognizable, that could be justifiably labelled legend. Yet he is also someone not to content to just rest on his laurels even if, in this case, they include a Nobel Prize for Literature. So, a new album by the man most people know just simply as Dylan is a big deal. The fact that it is first album of new tracks in eight years makes the 10-track Rough and Rowdy Ways, released around the world late last week, more of a musical event than an album. It is the first Dylan album since he was awarded the Nobel Prize in 2016 by the Swedish Academy “for having created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition.” And if you think that Dylan might be an anachronistic dinosaur no longer relevant in
today’s music industry - his almost six-decade career has been continuing unabated in the past two decades. He has released seven studio albums within the past 23-years; a creative span that also included the recording of an Oscar- and Golden Globe-winning composition, ‘Things Have Changed’, from the film Wonder Boys, in 2001; a worldwide best-selling memoir, Chronicles Vol. 1, which spent 19 weeks on the New York Times Best Seller List, in 2004 and was recently named the greatest rock memoir of all time by Rolling Stone. In his career Bob Dylan has sold more than 125 million records around the world. ROUGH AND ROWDY WAYS is the artist’s 39th studio album and is available now on Columbia Records through Sony Music Entertainment Australia. - Tania Phillips

Crop of refined creatives Following the ground-breaking success in its inaugural year, The Refinery creative incubator returned this year with a mission to help artists and creatives use business as a force for good. Fast gaining the attention of creatives, entrepreneurs and educators around Australia, The Refinery has attracted an incredible pool of participants and mentors this year, all who were keen to be part of this innovative incubator that joins the dots between creativity and business. In response to Covid-19, The Refinery reinvented itself in 2020 as an online program, helping creatives connect with each other and world class experts via online masterclasses, workshops and mentoring. Community Portfolio Councillor Rick Baberowski said The Refinery had exceeded expectations. “It succeeded in attracting excellent participants and in achieving its aim of fostering entrepreneurialism and helping to position the Sunshine Coast as a healthy, smart, creative region,” Cr Baberowski said. “If the success of last year’s graduates is anything to go by, the class of 2020 will be in the best position to succeed despite the challenging environment for the arts. “By building more extensive networks and collaborations for our talented local artists, I’m sure we’ll see more Sunshine Coast creatives sharing their considerable talents with the world very soon.” The Refinery alumni of 2019, Wildlings Forest School, recently made it to number one in Australia for Kids and Parenting podcasts and reached top 10 podcast rankings around the world. Thirteen creatives from across the Sunshine Coast and South East Queensland made it to the final cohort for 2020, following applications from almost 100 people around the country. The Refinery program coordinator Brendan Beale said following the success of 2019, they had attracted a diverse group of creatives, all with an idea to create a sustainable business in the realm of arts, film, fashion, publishing, 3D printing and First Nations projects. “The Refinery connects the dots between creativity and business and this year we’ve attracted world-class mentors,” Mr Beale said. “Our mentors come from the world of art, business, social enterprise, marketing, legal and finance.
Freya Heggarty is artistic director of The Mopoke creating ephemeral spaces, art and ideas that leap outta the dreamscape and into reality.
Sharka Bosakova is an artist and humanist who, with her namesake label, is creating interactive 3D printed jewellery. “We’re pumped to welcome Frankie Ratford of The Design Kids, a 250,000 strong community of graphic designers and a thriving business she runs from her van. “Also joining us is Kate Berry, publisher, photographer and creator of Lunch Lady Mag-
azine, alongside former Coast local and author Kay Langford of Startup Creative.” The Refinery has also engaged local creatives as mentors, including photographer Karina Jean Sharpe and First Nations emerging creative, Brianna Asher.
Alex Daffara is the creative director of a colourful, irreverent and nostalgic fashion label Tees By Alex.
Sweet dreams: Arts project invitation to soothe in song By Margaret Maccoll As Alison Burnley was singing a Welsh lullaby to her youngest child the arts manager came up with the idea to create a Lullaby Ensemble. With Regional Arts Development funding announced last week by Noosa Council her idea will become a reality. “I am so excited about collaborating with local artists to pilot The Lullaby Ensemble,” she said. “Mamas will learn folk lullabies from around the globe, singing to their newborns, creating sublime harmonies, unearthing their creativity and offering a much-needed opportunity to connect with new mums.” Alison said whenever she attended mother and baby groups songs were sung such as the Wheels on the Bus and she thought it would be nice to create beautiful music that would be enriching for the mums. Alison has been gathering together a collection of lullabies including ones from India and Nordic countries and hopes to include an Indigenous lullaby from the Gubbi Gubbi people. She will be working with Noosa singer/ songwriter Kate Anbeek who will be arranging the music. Alison has long been involved in creating “experiential and ceremonial works that provoke the mind and awaken the senses”. She has worked as a youth theatre director, studied Community Theatre at the Liverpool Institute of Performing Arts and co-founded multidisciplinary community arts organisation, Inside Out Arts.
Alison Burnley sings a lullaby Alison has worked as a producer for the BBC and as a freelance producer and facilitator and as a community engagement manager at the Birmingham Repertory Theatre. Since moving to Australia in 2013 she has worked on the programming team at The Edge
at State Library of Queensland and produced work for Woodford Folk Festival, BrisAsia and Brisbane Festival. “I’ve worked with the community before. You don’t have to sing well to be part of it. It’s beautiful what we can create,” she said.
Alison hopes to have the project up and running in October and the venue will be inside or outside depending on Covid-restrictions. It will be free for mums with a donation for refreshments. “It will just be somewhere for mums to go to sing beautiful music to their baby and meet other mums and not feel so isolated,” she said. This is not Alison’s first venture involving mothers and babies. When she became a mother she wondered how she could use her skills as an artist to support new mums and celebrate their journey of motherhood. “Mothers the world over are nurturing their newborns, often in isolation and often at the expense of their own wellbeing,” she said. So Alison began training as a postpartum doula, a non-medical role to support mothers after childbirth and The Mama Circle Sunshine Coast was born. “The Mama Circle provides postpartum doula services alongside creative projects for new mamas,” she said. “Whether you think of yourself as a creative soul or don’t think you have a creative bone in your body, The Mama Circle is for you. “In its essence, it’s about you being seen for the amazing work that you do and nurturing you in the way that you need, at the time you need it most. “I am passionate about nourishing, nurturing and supporting you by providing you with delicious meals for postpartum healing, rituals to honour your motherhood journey and a listening ear to bear witness to your story.” Friday, 26 June, 2020 NOOSA TODAY 23

THE READ
Utopian Avenue The man considered one of the foremost British novelists of his generation, David Mitchel, is back with his first full-length novel since The Bone Clocks in 2014. The much-anticipated Utopia Avenue delves inside the British music industry the strangest British band you’ve never heard of - Utopia Avenue. Emerging from London’s psychedelic scene in 1967 and fronted by folksinger Elf Holloway, guitar demigod Jasper de Zoet and blues bassist Dean Moss, Utopia Avenue released only two LPs during its brief and blazing journey from the clubs of Soho and draughty ballrooms, to Top of the Pops and the cusp of chart success, to glory in Amsterdam, prison in Rome and a fateful American fortnight in the autumn of 1968. Mitchell’s new novel tells the unexpurgated story of the band, of riots in the streets and revolutions in the head, a story of sex, drugs, thugs love and art, of fame’s Faustian pact and stardom’s wobbly ladder. For Mitchell, who’s novel Cloud Atlas made the Top 10 of the Guardian’s the ‘100 Best Books of the 21stCentury’, Utopia Avenue was a chance to ask and answer and ask himself some hefty questions and name drop some of the big names of music from Pink Floyd to Bob Dylan. “Writing about music is like dancing about architecture’ - one famous maxim, attributed to dozens from Miles Davis to Laurie Anderson to Frank Zappa,” Mitchell, the man who has been compared to Tolstoy, Don DeLillo and Haruki Murakami said. ”Is it possible to dance about architecture after all? Utopia Avenue is my rather hefty stab at an answer. Thank you in advance if you read it. I hope you enjoy the ride.” - By Tania Phillips ‘Bush Boys’ have paved a way to incorporate learning and outdoor time at school.
‘Bush Boys’ tackle breaks creatively They have been affectionately nick-named the Bush Boys, they’re cheeky, full of personality, adventurous, clever, passionate, full of good intentions mixed together with a slight hint of rebellion. They’re a group of Year 8 boys at St Andrew’s Anglican College, who finally found a way to divert their energy during break times. Using equipment brought in from home, the boys removed broken branches and cleared an area to build a giant secret cubby in an area of bushland surrounding the College. Their elaborate plan came a to halt however, when a facilities staff member came across their secret construction, which was in an unsupervised area of the College. Instead of reprimanding the group of boys, staff at St Andrew’s recognised their ingenuity, imagination and creativity and took the opportunity to problem solve and work with the students to explore new possibilities and ideas. The students were tasked to come up with a solution to the problem, which they ‘pitched’ to Principal, Chris Ivey and a group of staff with a plan as to why and how they could continue their bush play. They had researched a range of kindergartens, primary schools and P-12 schools that have unscripted play areas in the bush, as well as the increased benefits of this type of play which includes mental health, self-awareness and an appreciation of the land. “Our hut was fun, innovative, creative and was the reason we came to school - outside of learning,” Year 8 student Jarvis said. “We were only working on the treehouse for just under a week and we felt like that improved our approach towards school. “We felt like we had changed as people from 24 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 26 June, 2020
a couple of weeks ago, getting kicked out of the Hub (library) to now doing something that a lot of teachers think is amazing and is keeping us out of trouble. “We love our space to just have fun and we would like you to dream with us.” As a result, Mr Ivey agreed to ‘dream with the students,’ with a trial run for the last two weeks of term. The boys were assigned an area within supervision boundaries, and helped developed a set of expectations around safety and respect for the land. Head of Year 8, Miss Kerrie Dendle said she was extremely proud of the students and their initiative and passion to achieve something they had worked hard for. “I was a pretty impressive presentation for a group of 12/13 year old boys,” Miss Dendle said. “It is amazing what can be achieved when they are truly passionate about something. “These students had previously been the ones who get restless when cooped up - in our conversations, it was common they had nothing to do that interested them, and no space that they could claim as their own - but this group came up with a plan. “When first told about it - I thought it was brilliant! They had finally gone and thought of something they could do. Unfortunately didn’t communicate this idea very well. But I had some lunchtime meetings with them and heard their thoughts and tried to coach them into being proactive instead of reactive to the decision of banning them from the bush. “Activities like this are such wonderful resilience building opportunities and chances to problem solve creatively on the fly as challenges arise. “I am passionate about encouraging play,
developing friendships, resilience and some independence. It will be interesting to see how it goes.” Deputy Principal and Head of Secondary, Mr Brad Bowen, said this was an excellent example of staff building relationships and developing standards to engender student empowerment, rather than relying on rules as a method to control student behaviour. “Great schools who are willing to work on developing students and not just controlling them understand that to allow students to achieve their personal best, a positive relationship must exist between students and teachers,” Mr Bowen said. “Rules are not effective in teaching moral development, and when a student does not follow school rules, the tendency is to think in negative terms and students do not learn to self-regulate or maintain self-discipline. “At St Andrew’s we aim to focus on mutually agreed expectations and standards. The term ‘standard’ connotes a positive orientation and implies consideration for others and fosters a ‘We are all in this together’ attitude. “We take the more difficult and time-consuming expectations approach. When a standard is not met, a helping mentality is engendered, rather than an enforcement mentality. “Ultimately the student who graduates from St Andrew’s has a greater well-developed sense of self and is understanding, empathetic, responsible and self-assured. “Our expectations are clearly identified, and we enthusiastically work with both parents and students to ensure that these expectations are met for the betterment of our community.”
Cakemaker’s sweet wish The Cake Maker’s Wish by Josephine Moon Quaint and picturesque, the tiny village of Stoneden in the English Cotswolds is in danger of dying, due to all the young people and businesses leaving for the excitement and bustle of the city. A desperate and brilliant move by the Stoneden Renaissance Committee invites descendants of village residents, who wish to create a business and who have school age children, to move to the village to revitalise the population and bring youth and energy to the failing community. Pastry chef and patisserie owner Olivia is grieving the loss of her mother who was a resident of Stoneden prior to her move to Tasmania in 1966, where Olivia was born. Olivia is a devoted mother to her young son Darcy, whose father lives in Norway, and who has never met his son in person. Olivia decides a great opportunity has been presented to her; to move to Stoneden, open a cake shop and, as the distance is so much smaller, be close enough to Darcy’s father to foster a relationship between father and son. As in any community, there are different points of view about the renaissance project, and the new blood coming into the village, prompting some racial slurs and cruelty, but also prompting new friendships and kindnesses. In this tale there is romance, humour and delicious descriptions of the products created by Rambling Rose Fine Cakes. This well crafted novel is uplifting and a joy to read; a scrumptious slice of heartwarming escapism. (Penguin $30) - By Annie Grossman Of Annie’s Books On Peregian

Proposal is pitch perfect By Margaret Maccoll Dusko Borota wanted his marriage proposal to Lucy last Friday to be an occasion to remember so he called in the experts. As one of the first events permitted since the easing of Covid-19 restrictions it became a special occasion for everyone involved. It was the first flight post-Covid-19 restrictions for pilot Shawn Kelly of Paradise Seaplanes, which had been grounded since March. A pilot for 25 years Shawn realised a longheld dream when he established Paradise Seaplanes based at Maroochydore five years ago and he was thrilled to be allowed back in the air. “It is so good to be flying again,” he said. Shawn has been emotionally and financially impacted by months of shutdown but
has been buoyed by the well wishes of locals happy to see his return. The seaplane can carry three passengers but under current guidelines all have to be from the same household or friends and Dusko and Lucy fitted the bill. Shawn lifted off from Maroochy River in his Wilga 80 Seaplane, known affectionately as Willy, and headed for Chambers Island where the couple were greeted with a romantic picnic scene prepared by Noosa Picnics. “We had a beautiful proposal with a musician and take home flowers when the plane landed,” Katrina Scott of Noosa Picnics said. “He went all out. She loved it.” After a month in the planning the event went off without a hitch. The couple alighted from the plane and were seated on white cushions under a white teepee as they enjoyed champagne and a cheese platter.
Music was performed by Angie Newcomb. Videographer Lucia Santiago from Four Elements Films and photographer Rebecca Colefax were there to capture the occasion. Rebecca said creating beautiful proposals was a regular event for her and Katrina and something they put a lot of time and effort into perfecting. “We spend hours preparing for the shoot,” Rebecca said. She said they prepared a list of guidelines for the person proposing that included tips from what to wear to how to stand to capture the best photos. “There’s a lot of lead up to it,” she said. Rebecca said Katrina made sure the cushions and fabrics were fresh and crisp and she always picked up fresh flowers on the day. “She runs around the universe to get it all together,” she said.

New date this year for postponed 2020 Noosa Show The new date for the 2020 Noosa Country Show has been announced after being postponed in May due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The date has been revealed as Saturday 24 October 2020, with the Noosa Show Society yet to determine which ring events will be included, bearing in mind that the sub-chamber and state level points scoring competitions like stud cattle, dairy and equestrian have also been cancelled for this year. Noosa Show Society president Charlie Pattison said as the society owns their showgrounds, they are in a great position to be able to reschedule and reorganise the annual show. “We want to make this one in 2020 a real community event for the greater Noosa area,” he said. “We hope it will be a celebration for the community, as so many people come through
what has been a particularly challenging year. “Entry to the 2020 Noosa Community Show will be by optional donation, and we will have free exhibits, entertainment, and demonstrations for all ages. “As usual, tickets for sideshows will be available for purchase.” The Noosa Show Day is a gazetted public holiday, and it has been confirmed that the original date of the Show Day, Friday, 11 September 2020 will still be a public holiday in the Noosa Shire. In order to make the day a success, the society would love the participation of more volunteers for set up, knock down and during the day of the show. Volunteers are invited to contact AdministrationOfficer@NoosaShowSociety.org.au

Rough gem Whisky Boy, reviewed by Trevor Pepys Possibly thinking that it was some kind of skid row bum’s bar turned trendy, where I would feel relatively at home, a group of friends and colleagues last February presented your reviewer with a $150 gift voucher for Whisky Boy to celebrate some mildly significant occasion. Since we went into lockdown a week or three later, said voucher has lived behind a magnet on the fridge door ever since - a slightly sad reminder that someone, somewhere once had $150 worth of love for an old journo with a crook back - but as we come crawling towards the light at the end of the tunnel, last week it moved from fridge door to back pocket as I grabbed the child bride and headed into the night to find said Gympie Terrace hoochery. Look, my generous colleagues were not entirely wrong. If there was a skid row on Gympie Terrace, it would probably be situated on the mini strip mall on the corner of Thomas that houses Whisky Boy. The eateries therein all face onto a car park, that is relatively attractive, I suppose, as car parks go. But wait, there is the hint of a river beyond. Whisky Boy itself resembles at first glance a double garage that has been converted into a granny flat and a kitchen, but hey, some of the best meals Trevor Pepys has ever eaten have been in sheds of one kind or another, and this is a pretty classy example of the genre. Oh, and a short note here: Trevor Pepys occasionally lapses into the third person because a) there is no third person, just you, the reader, and he, the writer, and b) he is a bit of a tosser. Still bound by social distancing, the Whisky Boy staff gave us plenty of space, but not quite enough to get us out of range of a large group of shrieking hyenas at the next table. But then again, people eating out again now can be forgiven for their over excitement. (The bride and I had only managed to quell ours by administering double doses of Panadol before leaving home.) We opted for a few entrees to share, along with an excellent bottle of Domaine Grand Cros rose ($45). The ice cream dollop of
house-made chicken liver pate, served with grilled flatbread ($16), was excellent in flavor and texture, the salt and pepper calamari ($18) made up for in taste what it lacked in presentation. Only the raw tuna special ($16), billed as sashimi, disappointed. Nothing wrong with the tuna strips, as fresh as yesterday, but sashimi needs wasabi and soy, and none was forthcoming, and neither did the kitchen have any. But they obligingly ran out and got some, and it must be said that our service was like that throughout. Fast, courteous, and nothing too much bother. Leaving the bride to munch on the generous serving of calamari, Trevor Pepys devoured a rib fillet with smoked garlic and herb butter, accompanied by crispy fat chips and a tomato salad ($30). You can’t get much more basic than steak and chips, and, when it’s done well, you can’t get much better. And this was medium rare but well done, if you get my drift. We finished with a shared whisky affogato and espresso shot ($14), washed down with a lovely Pulteney single malt nightcap ($12). Was Trevor Pepys satisfied with the dinner for two? With qualifications, yes, he was. Would he go back to Whisky Boy? Yes, he would, even on his own dime, and he’d know what not to order. The verdict: Whisky Boy styles itself as a “kitchen + bar”, which is exactly what it is. The bar happens to have the best and biggest whisky selection in town, much of it at reasonable prices, and the kitchen focuses on simple fare done really well. Above all, it’s friendly and it’s fun. 10/203 Gympie Terrace, Noosaville 0403 600 406, whiskyboy.com.au While Trevor Pepys was born in Queensland and has been in and out of Noosa (not to mention Boggo Road and Wacol) most of his adult life, he is also a direct descendent of Samuel Pepys, the famous London diarist of dodgy habits, which may explain Trevor’s predilection for writing and the low life. He threatens to write semi-regular restaurant reviews in this space.

People flock to gardens By Tania Phillips With people taking up gardening in record numbers during lockdown, Gardening Australia presenter and Horticulturalist Jerry Coleby Williams is a man very much in demand. “I normally answer between eight to ten thousand gardening questions through my website and my Facebook page in a year that’s doubled,” the Wynnum-based Brit-born garden expert said - and it’s only June! Demand is so high he admits he is having a little trouble keeping up - though with the popular ABC TV show about to go into a budget induced hiatus for a few weeks he will have time to catch up a bit. He said it was ironic that the show wouldn’t be producing new episodes at a time when so many more people were both gardening and needing help - though the hiatus had been telegraphed by the channel before the pandemic and has become a fairly regular occurrence. “There has been such an enormous uptake of gardening because people have had the time to do things in their garden they would normally not consider doing,” he explained. “And there has been the concern about health, so people are growing food when they would normally not do that. “We’ve got an enormous upswing in people who are seeking information about really basic things and some of the things are so basic that you forget how confronting gardening can be for some people. They just don’t understand what’s going on in some cases. A lot of the time if you can help somebody through a simple problem and they can see a result, that’s often what results in people becoming a fulltime gardener. “It’s amazing how small tweaks at the beginning of somebodies gardening experience can actually change them into a gardener and alter their career.” And since Jerry has been gardening from the age of four, initially training with the Royal Horticultural Society, before working at the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew and qualifying in curation, horticultural estate management, soft landscape design, horticultural and botanical sciences, he is an obvious man for the job. He admits he doesn’t have time to answer multifaceted questions or help with garden design but if you keep your request to less than 100 words - he will get to you as soon as he can - though probably not at his usual “within 24 hours” As well as giving advice, aimed particularly at those suddenly out of work and still trying to pay bills and feed a family, Jerry also opened up his own collection to people not able to source seedlings or seeds after the rush on garden centres which left them unable to keep up with demand. “I was in the final stages of preparing for our annual open day,” he explained. “Every year for the past 15 years I have been opening my garden for two days during the mother’s day weekend. It’s actually built a following - about 2000 people each year and generally I will have 2000 plants - that’s what the demand will be. “During my working year as I lift and divide or save seed, I’ll put aside a surplus (some for myself) but a surplus for other people for my open day. “When the shops were unable to provide what people needed I was lucky enough to have 2250 food plants in pots. I had about 800 packets of home-saved vegetable seed.” The plants were distributed in a socially distanced, safe way from Jerry’s driveway in limited number (the busiest day was about 10 people) but it made enough money for Jerry to turn a small profit and even make his usual donation to a charity - this year the Brisbane Bat Conservation and Rescue. If you have a question about your new garden or need advice head to https://jerry-coleby-williams.net/ or follow him on facebook. Jerry holds his open weekend each May in the Brisbane suburb of Wynnum.

Without the support of our community paper, it would be that much harder to get the word out about the opportunities for people of all demographics, locations and backgrounds to get behind their local surf club and help it grow to become once again the thriving heart of the Peregian community. Lifesaving is not ‘just’ about saving lives, it is a movement which uniquely engages all coastal-living Australians, from tiny child to wise elder, about the importance of community, service to others and building confidence in all our abilities. I encourage everyone who has ever considered joining a club to give it a go - the benefits gained for yourself and others are truly priceless. Leigh McCready, Peregian.

Noosa a different river now The Noosa River might be “the best performing in terms of water quality in South East Queensland” but it is hugely different to when the oysters were at their prime. So many mangroves lost, Noosa Sound and Noosa Waters built, not to mention all the other developement with all the storm water run off. The bags didnt work and the most worrying aspect to me was where were the oyster shells obtained from? I read Morton Bay and if so no shell fish of any discription alive or dead was to be taken out of that area. Are they bringing back the fish or introducing white spot to our river? The money would have been far better spent on investigating the enormous increase in our river of a little fish called a pony fish. Local netters are now catching this fish by the tonnes each year.It wasnt known much five years ago It muddies the water and could be the cause of the lack prawns and the reported benthic loss. Noosa Rivers own version of the carp perhaps? Pam Burton, Tewantin Beautiful clouds at Sunset last Wednesday over the beach.
Noosa in Vogue Turning back the pages by Phil Jarratt was a reminder of the Noosa Today glossy magazine and a complimentary letter I wrote in 2016 (how time flies) with the heading Noosa In Vogue (I didn’t write that heading). I suggested it would not look out of place on the coffee table tables in waiting rooms alongside Vogue. I added as a joke that Kramer in one of Seinfeld’s episodes wrote a book and was waiting for its legs to extend and make its own table. Suggesting maybe Noosa Today could copy his brainwave.

No click bait
You’ve got to be kidding
Congratulations on the new printed edition of Noosa Today. Well written, balanced articles, full of local interest, and I especially like Phil Jarratt’s return. It’s also good to see a paper that avoids the type of click-bait, controversy stories that the Noosa News has often published since their Murdoch takeover. I wish you every success. Noel Roberts, Sunrise Beach.
Are you aware that following the demise of the Noosa News you have new serious competition. Yes, The Courier Mail every weekday produces a special Sunshine Coast and Gympie edition which comprises three quarters of a page of local news and one page of Letters and Facebook Feedback. They’ve got to be kidding! Dennis Robinson, Tewantin

28 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 26 June, 2020
Plan adopted by state Wonderful to have our local newspaper back in print, with a Soapbox feature to air a variety of community viewpoints. I was pleased to note that the Editor corrected ex-Councillor Ingrid Jackson’s claim that the new Noosa Plan has not been approved by the State Government. Seeing as it was definitely approved (in writing) four months ago, no doubt the council staff and councillors are determined to finalise and adopt this important plan as soon as possible. Julia Walkden, Cooroy
Relying on volunteers Cr Amelia Lorenston tells us the public is calling out for greater transparency to prevent community organisations becoming the subject of public misunderstanding and mistrust. Cr Frank Wilke is correct in taking offence at her comments. Frank, like many of us, has given Noosa a lot of community service through his volunteering, as have Cr Jurisevic and Cr Stockwell. As a volunteer over many years I have given many hours of my time working with various

Noosa based community organisations, some of these eligible to be part of the council’s environmental grants scheme and some who are not. Without volunteers Noosa and Noosa Council would suffer greatly. Amongst other thing these unpaid volunteers clear up rubbish, pull weeds, look after injured animals, help the arts community and the list goes on. Cr Lorenston obviously has no idea of the work done by volunteers to help make Noosa a good and caring place to live. Let me explain about one of the associations I am the treasurer of, this is Friends of Noosa Regional Gallery. The Friends is an organisation which because of its close council ties is not eligible for a council grant. We save the council a lot of money and work very hard to be able to do this. We supply all alcohol and catering for openings, we finance Artplay for children and assist with prize money. Our finances are audited. It is only right that Cr Lorenston tells us more about all of these disgruntled people who are calling for greater transparency. Obviously none of them are volunteers, or they would know about the immense amount of work unpaid volunteers do to save council money and improve our lifestyle. If Cr Lorenston cannot tell us, I think she should offer all volunteers a written apology via Noosa Today and on the council website. Those organisations who have been successful in getting a grant should still receive it, they must have a worthwhile project or they would not have received the grant. Now is not the time for council to play Scrooge. It would be a good idea for all new councillors to take a look at the volunteer organisations which help to make Noosa the place it is, to see what they do, and perhaps give them a hand.

OPINION
On The Soapbox Annie Grossman Bookseller ANNIE GROSSMAN (Annie’s Books, Peregian Beach) ruminates on reading.
Books are my therapy I can’t imagine my life without books. These days they are my livelihood, but all through this life, they have been my friends, my entertainment, my therapy and my medication. The last few months have been surreal to say the least. The whole world has joined together in the Covid dance, creating a strange kind of unity; we are all facing the same enemy. From my perch in the Peregian Beach Village, I have watched people rekindle their love of reading, and have seen many return to reading for the first time in many years. “I just don’t have time to read” is no longer an excuse. What we do have is plenty of time. Many of those people who read on devices have also returned to the paper version, finding comfort in the more tactile form of reading, and within the publishing industry great new books have continued to be available, maintaining interest and excitement. My shop and many others have remained open throughout the lockdown; we were providing an essential service after all! We are all so grateful for the ability to keep working and offer an enriching way for people to survive and enjoy their confinement. Prior to the virus, my small, tight community bonded together as we faced the very real possibility of losing our village and many of our homes as an out-of-control bushfire raged around our perimeter. I developed a (temporary) love of social media, as we could share our experiences, our knowledge and our fears as the fire licked at our village. As luck would have it, there were few fire emergencies at that time around the state and country, as opposed to a few weeks later, and we had an enormous number of fire fighters camped around the village, protecting us at great risk to themselves. We all have a new respect and love for these people who put their bodies on the line to protect us. A memory which I will always have is of people enjoying coffee out on the street in Peregian Beach, standing up and cheering as a fire engine drove by. Once the emergency was past, and we came back to our homes and businesses, a group of about 20 to 30 of us got together for a drink at Pitchfork restaurant, finally able to relax and talk through the almost-disaster. We were a bit hysterical, as people tend to be after a near miss or a shock. (I remember a similar hysteria when a group of us in a remote part of Africa were surprised by a lioness who decided to join our campfire party!) During our debrief drinks, we compared notes about how we had got through this week, the most entertaining conversation being about what we decided to pack and take when we were evacuated. Personally, I packed a box of old photos, my binoculars, a bottle of wine, the book I was reading and my partner’s ashes! It’s funny what becomes important in an emergency. Just a month before the bushfire, I lost my beloved partner of 20 years to an enemy we did not know was lurking in our lives; that insidious beast, cancer. My lover, my friend and my hero who helped to beat off the hardships and evils of the world was gone. Almost a year down the track I am doing well. I have lost the constant overwhelming sadness that I woke to every day, and find much to be joyful about. Again, reading has been my balm and my escape from sadness. Books have been my doctor and my grief counselor; again, I am so grateful that my parents put books into my hands and encouraged this love. My little business, which has always brought me joy, has been even more therapeutic during this time; I feel a smile appear as soon as I put the key in the door. My days are filled with conversation about books, life and all other things, and my relationships within my community continue to grow and blossom. It has indeed been an “annus horribilus” but I feel that the future is bright. My amazing 93-year-old mother seems to have an endless supply of wisdom, but I feel this says it all: “We cannot direct the wind, but we can adjust the sails.”
Annie Grossman in her place of the heart.

Can’t wait for marathon Marcoola resident Shannon Taylor will be setting off on his bicycle this October with the mission to ride across Australia; raising awareness for mental health relating to obesity and educating the public on weight loss surgery. Taylor underwent weight loss surgery in April 2018 after losing large amounts of weight naturally, but feeling defeated by the constant regain. The weight loss surgery completely changed Mr Taylor’s outlook on life and his attitude to health and fitness. “Obesity isn’t seen as a mental health issue, but rather as a physical illness. Where I see that the two go hand-in-hand,” Taylor said. Depression and severe social anxiety led to Taylor becoming obese. “I found myself getting worse as my physical form crossed deeper and deeper over society standards of acceptable,“ he said. “This made me stay at home more and eat more, which goes to show how hard an addiction to food really is.“ Taylor likened his unhealthy relationship with food to a drug addiction. “Understanding this (unhealthy) relationship so you can better see it for what it is, makes building a more healthy lifestyle more accessible,” he said. Taylor provided sound advice for those faced with similar demons. “With self-esteem, it’s something that won’t be fixed overnight, because as humans we care a lot about what others think,“ he said. “By taking time to appreciate what you can do and what you have, rather than spending time to dwell on what you don’t or can’t you will form a better relationship with yourself.“ Motherly advice also assisted Taylor with his emotional and physical recovery postweight loss surgery. “My mum used to always say you can’t love someone else unless you love yourself first ... if we don’t do that then we will always be drowning in our own insecurities and selfdoubts,” he said. A journey across Australia on a bicycle is Taylor’s next challenge. He is hoping his bike ride will showcase how weight loss surgery, when partnered with the right mindset, can change a person’s life. Taylor hopes he can influence and change other people’s lives for the better by motivating them to see the potential they can unlock when they set goals and seek betterment. A foundation that addresses mental health issues related to obesity will be set up by Taylor with funds he hopes to raise from the event. “We are hoping to set up programs all over Australia where people can connect with others [and] have a support network behind them ... they can talk to psychologists and nutritionists to better understand their relationship with food,” he said. The names of all those who donate to Taylor’s crowd funding page will be displayed on his bicycle helmet. As a final hurdle, or “cherry on top,” as Taylor describes it, at the finish line in Western Australia. He plans to take part in the half ironman event in Busselton. Training for the cycle across Australia was halted when Taylor was hit by a car on the Sunshine Coast three weeks ago. He was lucky to escape with minor injuries. “Honestly, it isn’t ideal, but I have to look at the positives,“ he said. “I could of been a lot worse off injury-wise and at least it happened far enough away from the ride that I should be able to get my fitness back by then to make it happen.“ Taylor has not lost his sense of humour post-accident, and describes his life story to date as, “Man loses 95 kilograms, gets hit by a car, and rides across Australia. Got to look for those silver linings.” The Virtual Brisbane Half Marathon was completed at a walking pace, which Taylor said was not ideal, but it was better than not finishing at all, and he hopes his tenacity inspires others to refuse to quit when “the going gets tough“. Post-bicycle ride across Australia, Taylor would love to continue to do a full lap around the world spreading his story, and inspiring others to be the best version of themselves. 34 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 26 June, 2020

Hook, Line and Sinker Jack Mangrove
Anglers busy with catches With a week of blustery winds, easterly swell and showers the fishing was all about the river and freshwater with a good mix of species keeping anglers busy. Starting around the mouth, flathead can be located around the many drop offs that litter the lower river area. These fish respond well to drifted whole fish baits like whitebait and froggies. You can gang hook or snell two hooks for the best presentation and even fish these with little to no weight and allow the current to do the job. As the weather starts to cool around the river mouth rocks and the snags of the dog beach you will find sizeable bream as well. This area is best fished from a boat or kayak as fish will instinctively run for cover. Around woods bay in the mornings and high tides you can expect to find trevally and even queenies mixed together. These fish have to be experienced using a surface lure. Look at the new MMD splash prawns for a skipping option these species love to chase down. Around the coastguard you can expect to find golden trevally, flathead and whiting in the shallows. Whiting love a live beach worm on a running sinker rig and some red whiting tube to help with attraction. Away from the lower river toward the ski run the continued run of flatties and trevally continues with the deeper holes on the Northshore side of the river a great place to throw smaller 2-3 inch soft plastic grubs and paddle tail plastics. This week we are in the new moon phase and as such the currents will be stronger in the river so fishing around the last of a tide and the turn will be your best option to avoid lots of current. The mouth of Lake Cooroibah is a favourite spot as you can sit out of the main channel and find those fish taking shelter. You will need to increase jighead weights if running plastics and like the lower river area, fishing unweighted baits works very well here. On the offshore scene, most reports came in on the Sunday as this was the first opportunity that many anglers got to head offshore, snapper are really starting to make their presence felt with some quality fish boated. Sunshine Reef has fished well for pearl perch, cobia, tusk fish, big sweetlip and of course snapper. With some good conditions forecast larger craft will do the miles to the Barwon Banks and The Hards which should be fishing extremely well. The Banks is likely to producing snapper, cobia, tusk fish, moses perch and pearlies, hussar and Maori cod. North Reef is another on the radar with cobia, pearl perch, moses perch, snapper and tusk fish. For those doing the run to the Double Island Reefs expect to see snapper, red emperor, tusk fish, pearl perch cod and cobia all in larger sizes. Freshwater saw things warm up with hotter

Both Lake Macdonald and Borumba Dam have seen fat bass smashing the bait and putting on a bit of size. These fish are still down deep with smaller fish coming mid water in tight schools. Break out anything that vibrates and around 50-70mm in size. The new Samaki Redic 60mm turbo mullet looks like a baitfish and is sure to get the bite for those working jerkbaits. If you are working the deeper schools then try Keit-

Could be a while before the oranges are wheeled back on to local sporting grounds.
Clubs face challenges The coronavirus, Covid-19, has certainly rattled the cages of every sport in recent months and all sports have their own individual challenges to overcome. I’m not sure if some of our NRL club’s have caught their own particular type of virus but I am hard pressed to recall a recent or distant season when the gap between the good, the bad and the downright ugly is so vast. In fact you could be forgiven for thinking the NRL is running a two tier competition. After losing their two pre-Covid games, the Roosters are crowing in rarefied air and while there is still plenty that can go wrong for them in the remaining seven or eight rounds of the amended competition they are currently freewheeling and flying high and heading towards the top of the table. They have a fairly handy draw in the lead up to the finals, meeting only a couple of the fancied teams on the way. The Eels currently head the standings ahead of the Knights, Panthers, Storm, Eagles, Raiders and Bunnies who round out the current top eight. The gap between those sides and the remainder seems to be widening with each week. It is not good news for Maroons fans as the three Queensland teams all find themselves at the wrong end of the ladder and there is precious little light at the end of the tunnel for their supporters. While there is a long road to travel before we start talking State of Origin 2020 our Queensland stocks are looking pretty thin on the ground and a good transfusion of the famous Queenslander spirit may be necessary this season. Of the teams in the bottom half of the ladder the Tigers look to be the only side knocking on the door of the top eight trying to force their way in. The Cowboys horror run of injuries is only overshadowed by their very tough draw between now and round 20 and must be giving Coach Paul Green nightmares. The Sharks have lost their bite; the Dragons have their own injury concerns before you mention form. Now one of their greatest back stops, James Graham is heading back to the Old Dart to finish his playing career with 36 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 26 June, 2020
In the end the Board has run out of time and options to get season 2020 off the ground. While it is disappointing for clubs, players and fans they join a large number of senior leagues across the state who have made teh same decision. The Noosa Pirates Open Women’s, Under 18, Division 1 & 2 teams will not play under the local Senior competition banner this season. While this is disappointing the Pirates Board are investigating what alternatives are available. Perhaps even some exhibition games. In the meantime it is understood that some players from clubs in the SSGRL may now look to play in the Brisbane Rugby League competition or even change codes.

JUNIORS PIRATES BACK Although the Sunshine Coast Senior Rugby League season has been cancelled the Sunshine Coast Junior Rugby League has planned a return to competition for 2020. Following a meeting between the Noosa Pirates club and Junior team Coaches and Managers, the U/13 to U/16 teams commenced training this week. It is anticipated the U/6 to U/12’s will return to training in the first week after school holidays (from July 13). Updates with training times, dates and locations will be available of the club Facebook page and also the team pages.
2020 SENIOR LEAGUE WRITE OFF The Board of the Sunshine Coast Gympie Rugby League last week officiallly cancelled the 2020 season. After weeks spent trying to find a solution, the Board sought nominations from the 16 affiliated clubs to participate in a centralised venue concept with the possibility of returning to home and away games if restrictions were lifted. President of the SSRL, Glenn Peatling said only two of the 16 clubs showed an interest in this concept. These are truly extraordinary times and this will be the first time in over 100 years that there has not been a rugby league competition in the region. Although there are lots of whispers around rugby league of pending changes and easing of restrictions there is no concrete evidence of any changes happening soon.
GOOD NEWS FOR THE TIGERS It has been a tough few months for the Noosa Tigers unsure whether they would get back on teh paddock this year to defend their 2019 premiership. Things are looking up however. There has been a positive response from current players to the return to training despite the restrictions. In a boost to the club Brett Meredith, former Sydney Swans player Brett Meredith has signed up and is eager to help the club to back to back premierships. The 31-year-old, midfielder made the move to teh Sunshine Coast last year and after canvassing a few other clubs settled on the Tigers as a good fit. Meredith has that winning touch in 2018 and 2019 he played in back to back premiership sides with the Port Douglas Crocs.
Noosa Pirates juniors are keen to get back on the paddock following news the 2020 season will go ahead. St Helens. Their Coach Mary McGregor is just one of half a dozen coaches under the pump. The fate of Bulldogs coach Dean Pay appears from the outside noise to be a week to week proposition but an improved performance last weekend may give him a little wriggle room. The axe has already fallen on Warriors coach Stephen Kearney. A bitter pill to swallow for him no doubt but on the flip side the Warriors performance was pathetic last weekend. Obviously their owner was not prepared to wait and see if an improvement under Kearney could be salvaged. Of course they weren’t alone the Titans were shambolic and saving the best or worst for last, the Broncos a disgrace. Who would ever have contemplated the mighty Brisbane Broncos Club would be in such disarray. The Broncos don’t have the easiest draw in the next few weeks and how they handle their problems in 2020 is developing into an intriguing story in itself. A loss to the Titans this week at Suncorp might cause all sorts of changes and unfortunately if you are a Broncos fan, brace yourself it could be on the cards. Let’s hope these NRL clubs in the bottom
half of the ladder can find a vaccine to fix whatever virus they are all suffering and put their fans out of their misery.

Between The Flags Ron Lane
Sunshine Beach Surf Club opens for business.
Lana Rogers - a winner.
Sunshine Beach Surf Club
Things are looking up The flags on Noosa’s Main Beach are once again up and sea conditions allowing, they are spread wide apart. Senior Noosa Shire Lifeguard Adam McKane said, “This will be the second week that the flags have been back and so far, the people have been good. We think by now people have it in their sub conscious about group size (20 people) and are sticking to this on the beach or in the water.” Regarding rescues there have been several but they have been minor; first aid calls there were two and both were in National Park, a young girl suffered a fractured ankle and another suffered heat exhaustion. Over the hills at Sunshine Beach SLSC, the Supporter Club is open for business. This is being run strictly according to regulations as set down by the proper authorities. After being greeted at the door and passing the temperature check, the house rules regarding seating are explained: the floor plan for this, covers the Ocean Deck, the Seaside Deck and the Ocean Room, each with its 20 diners capacity. Add to this there are two sides for drinking with table service only. These regulations are working well. The atmosphere is pleasant and relaxing and the ocean views are beyond description; add to this watching the whales as they swim north and you have it all. To enjoy these facilities, it is essential to ring first; check trading times and make necessary arrangements. With the Sunshine Beach club being relatively new, it is good to see them back in business. With the ever-increasing cost of running the modern-day surf club the role of the Supporter club, plus a good core of local membership is of the utmost importance. The restricted numbers maybe a drawback business wise: however, because of this the usual pressure placed on the chef and his team is not there, thus giving them that extra time on presentation. As a result, there has been many complements regarding the menu. We wish them well.
Lana Rogers and coach Sharlene Kelly Regarding the senior surf lifesaving club everything involved in the running of the club is undergoing a full overhaul, in preparation for the forth coming season. As yet the date for this is to be announced. Their core business which is patrols and lifesaving is being fully addressed and patrol rosters are under discussion. Rooms such as the gym and first aid, which have been under lock and key, are being double checked and cleaned; training calen-
dars for the forthcoming competitive season have been drawn up -all ready to go. The junior activities ( Nippers) club also has programs for training and competition under way. Despite our present predicaments, all aspects of both the lifesaving and the supporter clubs are indeed in a very positive frame of mind. When talking about lifesavers with a positive attitude, there could not be a better example than Noosa’s team of iron woman Lana
Rogers and coach Sharlene Kelly. Last season their achievements, while working together as athlete and coach were outstanding: Lana achieved that impossible double of winning both the Nutri Grain Iron Woman Championship of Australia and the most coveted trophy of all-- the Coolangatta Gold. Apart from this Lana also won the Queensland Iron Woman championship then went on to win a unique double by winning both the Queensland and Australian Women’s Open Belt Race Championships. Now as we go to press, Lana is in her third week of her preparation for this year’s Coolangatta Gold; all being well this will be held on 25 October. Her program is so well balanced that it will take her through to the final week. Following this at the end of November, Lana along with Australia’s other top four Nutri Grain iron women, plus a wild card, (plus a men’s team of similar structure) will travel to West Australia. The reason for this, is to contest a week long program made up of a series of difficult events: then following this the contestants will take part in yet another gruelling event; a 27km ski race known as the Doctor. When asked her feelings facing such a tough program of events, her answer was very clear and positive. “I am really looking forward to it. With my success and the experience that I have gained I am now feeling very calm and in a good frame of mind: also, this event in West Australia will definitely be a new adventure.” For any athlete to repeatedly achieve such results while competing against the best the country has to offer, speaks volumes for her coaching. Her coaching team of Sharlene Kelly ski coach and mentor, Clint Irwin board and Brian Stehr swimming, have created a champion athlete that is now held in high regard throughout the world of surf lifesaving; and of course, as often happens, in the background, there is that greatest foundation of all-- the fam Friday, 26 June, 2020 NOOSA TODAY 37

Life of Brine Phil Jarratt
Great waves, great loss Another great week for waves (until Skunky Sunday, which seems to be becoming a habit) but also a sad week for surfers. Last week in these pages we noted the passing of Danny Watt, a gentleman who quietly personified what we all hold so dear about the surfing lifestyle. This week two more true gents of surfing who flew pretty much under the radar most of the time moved on to the perfect point break in the sky, one a Noosa local since childhood, the other an inveterate surf traveler who passed through Noosa often, and left only good vibes and cruisy tracks. Peter Neely grew up as a surfer on Sydney’s northern beaches, worked in advertising for a while, but, like this writer, heard the Morning Of The Earth call and joined the first wave of Bali surf tourists in the mid-1970s. Around the same time he had also discovered Noosa with muso mate Col Noble (see photo), but while Noosa was ultimately home, Bali was to be his lifelong passion. A good surfer, Peter mastered the waves of the Bukit peninsula during almost a decade living in Bali, and was a judge at Bali’s first professional surfing event, the Om Bali Pro, in the early ‘80s. When he returned to Noosa in 1986, he opened the Kuta Baru Bali-based clothing and accessories shop in Hastings Street with wife Lynne, while working on a master plan that would “force” him to keep returning to Bali on a regular basis. Peter, like many of us who developed a fixation on surfing in Bali back in the day, felt a cultural responsibility towards the tiny island whose future had been fundamentally changed by its discovery by surfers. His response was both simple and ingenious. He began publishing a humble guide book called “Indo Surf and Lingo”, which, while masquerading as a guide to surf breaks, cheap accommodations and even cheaper restaurants for first-time visiting surfers, was really a guide to showing respect for a beautiful culture we had invaded. From the simplistic Indo lingo phrases and basic vocabulary, to Pete’s sly advice about behavioral adjustments, it was a book that worked on all levels. At a lifestyle level, it also meant that through its lifespan of more than 25 years, every time stocks ran out, Pete would have to nick back up to Bali and sell enough ads to cover the next print bill, hopefully coinciding with a good winter swell or two. Sadly, Peter Neely was diagnosed with motor neurone disease last year, and passed away earlier this month. He spent his last months campaigning for greater MND awareness and legalizing euthanasia in Queensland. He will remembered by his many friends and colleagues as a man (and a surfer) who cared deeply about those whose paths he crossed. Born in Adelaide in 1945, Ken “Kiwie” White was one of those wonderful surf travelers who could pop up anywhere in your life, anywhere in the world, and you could immediately resume the conversation you were having decades before. Which is exactly what happened to me when Kiwie fronted me at the Noosa Festival of Surfing not so long ago and resumed a conversation we’d started in the ‘70s in either Whale Beach, Burleigh Heads, Sunset Beach or Kuta, we couldn’t remember the place but we could sure as hell remember the substance. Originally one of the “West Coast Surf Chasers”, a bunch of surf-crazed Adelaide teenagers who drove an old woody around the Eyre Peninsula in search of waves, Kiwie (the nickname came from Kiwi boot polish but Kiwie always spelt it his way) was selected to surf for his state in the first world surfing championships at Manly in 1964, where he met star surfers from Hawaii and California like Joey Cabell, Mike Doyle and LJ Richards. Kiwie’s humble approach to life won him friends everywhere, and he soon found himself invited to hang out with the stars in Kauai, California and Mexico. Over the decades, Kiwie would just show up to go surfing, and was always made welcome, in the knowledge that if ever you were going to Port Lincoln, where he had settled with his 38 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 26 June, 2020

causes, which included paying for the installation of defibrillation stations at remote Cactus. Two very different men, Pete and Kiwie, both good surfers who I feel privileged to have known.

WHAT ARE YOUR BEST POOL OPTIONS? WITH memories of the summer heat still strong, the thought of having a backyard swimming pool to cool some steam and lounge away is a timely one. Thanks to ingenious creations that have resulted in backyard pools coming in all shapes, sizes and styles, it’s easy to find the perfect match for your backyard. Better yet, you can also find one that suits your price range. Before jumping into the intricacies of design detail, it pays to learn a thing or two about the different categories backyard swimming pools have. This way, you can narrow down your selection based on category, design, and price. In-ground pools Just as the name is self-explanatory, in-ground pools are the classic pool at ground level. They look great and have the advantage of lasting a long time. However, with beauty comes price and in-ground pools can be expensive to purchase with a higher maintenance requirement along with longer installation times compared to other backyard pool options. Typically made from concrete or fibreglass, concrete in-ground pools are constructed on-site making them extremely durable. On the other hand, fibreglass pools are usually manufactured beforehand and will take less time to install, although they aren’t as resilient as concrete. The process of building an in-ground pool is highly complex with requirements to rip up your entire backyard to get the job done. Not only will you have to undergo backyard renovations, but the future soil conditions of your yard may also be compromised when installing an in-ground pool. To build a backyard in-ground pool, you will need to apply for council approval which can take the process (including construction time) anywhere from 3 to 6 months. Above ground pools An alternative to in-ground pools, above ground pools, have become increasingly popular due to their versatility. Being cheaper and faster to install when
compared to in-ground pools, above ground pools are also quite modular, which gives you the flexibility to resize according to your needs. You will need to make sure that the site in your backyard is flat and levelled before placing an above ground pool (unless you want a real shallow end on one side and real deep end on the other). The majority of above ground pools have been designed for easy DIY installation, making it straightforward to put into your home. As above ground pools aren’t fixtures, you can simply take them with you wherever you go. Most above ground pools are made from steel or resin and often have a vinyl interior. Depending on the model, you may have one that tolerates freshwater or one that does well with chlorinated saltwater. Some above ground pool packages come supplied with everything needed to set up a working pool, from pumps to filters and even ladders and decks.
Portable pools Those with restricted space in your backyard won’t have to miss out on having a pool thanks to the portable pool. It’s versatile and suitable for most gardens, so long as you have flat ground and access to water. The range of sizes and shapes make portable pools fantastic for pool parties and for families with kids. Plus, they’re also easy to put away when not in use. Inflatable pools If you like the idea of using a pool once in a while, a backyard inflatable pool is your solution. You won’t have to worry about storage nor having a fixed pool in your backyard. Inflatable pools are often made from durable plastic that can last for a long time. They come with cartridge filter pumps that keep the water clean and safe from bacteria.
Kids’ pools For those who only want to buy a pool just for the young ones, getting a kids pool is your best option. Specifically made for kids, the design means shallow water that provides enough space for splashing, some paddling, and having a good time. Some kids pool models are even big enough to cater for the whole family to sit in. It is strongly advised that you supervise your child at all times when in or around a pool, no matter the size. Backyard pool decisions Everyone’s needs are different, which means that the best backyard pool option for you is a personal one. Depending on your budget, space, and use of the pool, you will easily fall into one of the pool categories above, bringing you one step closer to a backyard pool decision. - realestateview.com.au ●

and whistles such as Smeg appliances, VJ-profile doors, multiple over-generous dining/living spaces and internal courtyards which spill seamlessly to maybe a terrace, garden and/or pool plus breathtaking sunsets towards Mt Cooroy.
