Parks plans A rocking night at the gallery

Southern Downs Regional Council has released a list of all the green space it maintains in the region, all of which is set to be included in the parks optimisation program.

The list includes not only the parks in the region but also green spaces such as Allora Scout Reserve, Dalveen Hall Grounds, Karara Hall Grounds, Killarney Showgrounds, Mt Marlay lookout, Storm King Dam, and all the cemeteries and town entrances.

Funding windfall producers in the region.

“The economic and social benefits of saleyards directly impact at the saleyards site as well as the local businesses and greater community,” Mr Littleproud said.

“All stakeholders within the saleyards supply chain, including buyers, sellers, livestock selling agents, transport operators, employees and most importantly the livestock will benefit from this development.”

Southern Downs Mayor Vic Pennisi welcomed the funding announcement by Mr Littleproud.

“The Warwick Saleyards has been a major pillar in the identity of the Southern Downs for

this milestone announcement.

The Warwick Saleyards wasn’t the only recipient of National Bushfire Recovery Funding in Southern Downs.

The Condamine Headwaters Landcare Group will use their $44,440 grant to train local land managers about cultural burning of Country using First Nations fire practitioners to mitigate severe fire risk and enhance ecological health and productivity.

“This project will produce land managers who via their own networks, will continue the cultural changes towards reinstating burning as a management tool,” Mr Littleproud said.

Three projects to build a stronger Southern Downs community have been successful under the Australian Government’s Black Summer Bushfire Recovery Grants program.

Federal Member for Maranoa David Littleproud announced earlier this week a $4.5 million redevelopment of the Warwick Saleyards, along with a $44,440 grant towards the Condamine Headwaters Landcare Group’s training program for Cultural Burning for Healthy Country, and $28,500 to support the Grand Parade at Stanthorpe’s 2022 Apple & Grape Harvest Festival.

There’s something I really want to address in this week’s editorial but honestly, I’m exhausted at the thought of it.

We got a letter to the editor last week, sent to our editorial team very last minute, which I didn’t have the time to address in an editor’s note before going to print. So now we’re going to do that.

Every woman I have spoken to this past week has expressed shock that another woman wrote that letter.

Reading it back now, they invalidate their own argument by saying that maybe more men ran for Council and that’s why there’s more male representation than female.

Well, why are there more women running for Council? Why is running for Council undesirable to women? Is it because we get analysed in a way no man does? Receive hate in a way no man does? Are expected to represent all women in a way no man is?

I was involved in student council and dealt with too much nonsense to ever want to go into politics. And that was a piddly student council.

This person seems to think that women having the ability to run for Council solved the problem. That’s like saying we conquered the patriarchy when we got to vote.

And I love how it says the March For Justice last year was advocating for a large issue. Because...duh. You just admitted we have a huge problem.

The dig at all our journalists being female was honestly just hilarious to me.

Don’t get me started on the sexism female journalists deal with.

Frankly, I just found that letter embarrassing. You embarrassed yourself. It was ridiculous.

I thought about how I should approach this extensively. About whether I should form an academic argument, with sources and figures.

But honestly, I shouldn’t have to academically explain why women should be valued in the workplace and in positions of leadership.

I feel like the writer of that letter is too far gone; I’m not going to convince them otherwise and my energy can be better utilised elsewhere.

They talk about 70s feminism when they are very clearly stuck in the dark ages.

I look forward to celebrating impressive women in our region in next week’s edition, in time for International Women’s Day. If there is a local woman you think we should chat with, let us know by emailing me or our general journo email.

Updates on Eight Mile The Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR) is progressing upgrade works at the Cunningham and New England highways intersection, locally known as the Eight Mile intersection.

Later this month work will start to erect 10 super T girders that will provide the platform of the overpass. When complete, the overpass will be a single lane for traffic travelling from Toowoomba to Warwick on the New England Highway and will include a 66-metre-long bridge.

The girders will be erected from 28 February to 5 March, weather permitting. During this period there will be additional traffic management including stop and slow traffic control. To minimise traffic disruptions the super T girders will be erected at night, between 6 pm and 6 am.

These night works will be in addition to the daily construction operations which will continue between 6am and 6pm, Monday to Friday. Delays will be kept below 15 minutes.

Intermittent Saturday works may be carried out between 6am and 2pm.

Once the girders are installed, there will be a permanent height restriction for traffic using the Cunningham Highway as they will travel under the new overpass. Eastbound traffic will

be restricted to 6.1 metres, while westbound traffic will be restricted to 7.1 metres.

Motorists should continue to carefully follow all temporary traffic management signs, including digital message signs, at the intersection for the safety of motorists and road workers.

The project is currently scheduled to be completed in August 2022, subject to weather and construction conditions.

TMR aims to prioritise the use of local labour and contractors in major infrastructure projects. Construction at the Eight Mile intersection upgrade has successfully invested 99 per cent of project funds in Queensland businesses to date, including over 55 per cent in regional Queensland.

The safety of motorists and road workers is the department’s top priority. Motorists are reminded to remain alert as traffic conditions will often change during construction. Traffic management changes will include road shoulder and lane closures, and some minor diversions through the intersection.

We thank the public for their patience during construction and ask that they continue to follow all traffic management signs and signals, and the instructions from traffic controllers.

White spot of bother

By Dominique Tassell Construction began on 20 January.

Servo in progress

By Emily-Rose Toohey The construction of a service station and Subway on the corner of Percy and Albion Streets began in late January, commencing on the 20th.

However, Southern Downs Regional Council (SDRC) Mayor Vic Pennisi and chief executive officer Dave Burges said they are unaware of its development.

“There could be a planning application in but it’s not council,” Mr Burges said.

“I’m aware of two applications for service stations that are in the system.”

Mr Burges said he will have to look into this further.

JBBK Construction Pty LTD is currently completing the construction, and is set to be finished in May, as confirmed by a site worker.

A spokesperson from the company or the construction site was unavailable to provide further comment at this time.

Construction site on the corner of Percy and Albion Streets is underway.

Locals have raised questions about Southern Downs Regional Council’s plans for the Warwick streetscape after white spots appeared on trees up and down Palmerin Street.

Locals have expressed concern about whether this means the trees in question are set to be removed from the CBD, and if so whether this is due to disease or other reasons.

Questions have also been raised about how this might affect the Jumpers and Jazz in July festival.

Last year in September, locals expressed frustration when four Claret Ash trees outside the Criterion Hotel were removed without any known consultation with the community.

A Council spokesperson stated that the trees would be replaced with planter boxes “to freshen up the streetscape”.

These changes have not been made.

At the time, chief executive officer, Dave Burges, stated that “the trees were not in the best of health, they had some disease”.

He stated that the planter boxes solution means there’s no damage to infrastructure.

“We’ll trial them, we’ll see how they go,” he said. “The community will tell us what they think.”

Mr Burges stated that Council had applied for half a million dollars in funding under the Building Better Regions Fund to deal with the broader streetscape issue in the region.

If successful, he said Council would be rolling out a million-dollar streetscape program using funds from the grant and from Council.

Tentatively, $600,000 of that would be allocated to Stanthorpe to continue their streetscape program while some would also be used for implementing Urban Design Framework plans.

Some of the money would also be allocated to trial work in Warwick.

Council has not responded to a request for comment.

Programs funding victory Three projects to build a stronger Southern Downs community have been successful under the Australian Government’s Black Summer Bushfire Recovery Grants program.

Federal Member for Maranoa David Littleproud announced earlier this week a $4.5 million redevelopment of the Warwick Saleyards, along with a $44,440 grant towards the Condamine Headwaters Landcare Group’s training program for Cultural Burning for Healthy Country, and $28,500 to support the Grand Parade at Stanthorpe’s 2022 Apple & Grape Harvest Festival.

Mr Littleproud said the Warwick Saleyards upgrade will support the recovery of primary producers in the region.

“The economic and social benefits of saleyards directly impact at the saleyards site as well as the local businesses and greater community,” Mr Littleproud said.

“All stakeholders within the saleyards supply chain, including buyers, sellers, livestock selling agents, transport operators, employees and most importantly the livestock will benefit from this development.”

Funding of $28,500 will also flow to Stanthorpe’s Apple & Grape Harvest Festival to bolster the Grand Parade and provide social benefits and support local economic recovery and cash flow within the Granite Belt.

The three projects are among 524 projects funded under the program.

Mr Littleproud said the overall program funding was boosted by $110 million to $390

million to further support communities around Australia to recover from the 2019-20 bushfires.

“As part of the new $2.2 billion National Bushfire Recovery Fund, the Black Summer Bushfire Recovery Grants program is backing projects which the affected communities have said will best support their ongoing recovery,” Mr Littleproud said.

“It was important that we funded projects based on need and merit and which offered a lasting and tangible impact, tailored to local needs and conditions. The quality of the projects funded shows that our ‘locally led’ approach works.

“We understand that recovery from bushfires takes time, and we will continue to support impacted communities through their recovery from the devastating Black Summer bushfires of 2019-2020.”

Mr Littleproud said the funding flowing from the CHART program is timely as community-run arts and cultural organisations look to return to normal operations following some two years of disruptions caused by the pandemic.

“Both our local economy and community have been affected by the ongoing effects of restrictions and isolation. However, thanks to the Australian Government, we are able to support the development of appealing cultural tourism experiences that will reignite the economy and participation in the Arts.

“I encourage arts, cultural and heritage organisations in Maranoa to apply for a CHART program grant today,” he said.

The CHART program is being administered by the Australian Museums and Galleries Association (AMaGA) on behalf of the Government.

Applications are open until 29 April 2022, or until funding is allocated, whichever comes first.

Also currently open is the Supporting Cinemas’ Retention Endurance and Enhancement of Neighbourhoods (SCREEN) Fund.

The latest grants will allow independent cinema operators to keep providing a popular, and low-cost way for people to go out and enjoy a movie as part of their local community.

Administered by Screen Australia, the Government announced a second round of the SCREEN Fund in December 2021 to support independent cinema operators with grants of up to $85,000 if they have experienced significant declines in revenue due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

SDRC releases parks list

By Dominique Tassell Southern Downs Regional Council has released a list of all the green space it maintains in the region, all of which is set to be included in the parks optimisation program.

You can find the list included in this article online, as it was too large to print.

The list includes not only the parks in the region but also green spaces such as Allora Scout Reserve, Dalveen Hall Grounds, Karara Hall Grounds, Killarney Showgrounds, Mt Marlay lookout, Storm King Dam, and all the cemeteries and town entrances.

Initially, Mayor Pennisi stated this list could not be released until councillors have been briefed “so they understand what’s going on before anyone else”.

When asked why was a motion was put forward in November containing parks such as Arcoola Park and Pennant Park when council-

lors hadn’t been briefed, Mayor Pennisi stated that they ultimately left the motion to lay on the table due to this.

“We’ve had changes of staff and they’re not aware of the work that’s been had in the past.

So it’s important that we brief our councillors and the staff with where we were at with those things.”

He stated he was about to start a media campaign in relation to some of these parks,

to try and “put a little bit of calm back into the conversation”.

Mayor Pennisi stated he uses the work green space instead of parks, though he had been using the word parks for our entire conversation.

We stated this use of the word ‘parks’ may have led to confusion.

Mayor Pennisi did later state they need to make a decision about whether they want to focus on destination parks or not.

“If we go down that path, a lot of that infrastructure will go in and then some of those parks might get revisited” “It’s a helicopter view of the green space” “There are about 500 hectares of green space just in Warwick if you include Morgan Park and the creek and those sorts of areas.”

“I’m not saying that we’re not going to sell some of those green spaces, because Clintonvale is one that we are likely to ... why have we got it? We don’t need that land.”

Council discusses region’s housing crisis

By Dominique Tassell Southern Downs Regional Council touched on the housing crisis at the information session on Wednesday 16 February.

While discussing a review of the corporate plan, Mayor Vic Pennisi raised concerns about housing.

He asked when the other councillors felt it would be time to make a decision on housing, such as emergency housing for people moving to town for council jobs.

Councillor McDonald raised this could be included in the planning scheme.

Chief executive officer Dave Burges stated

they could put a goal to make planning applications easier in the corporate plan.

Mayor Pennisi again asked when those present thought council should intervene.

Mr Burges stated retention of staff has been an issue for the council.

The next day, Mayor Pennisi reiterated his concerns.

“Is it time for council to build some townhouses or houses? Because we’re finding that when we ask people to come here because of the jobs, they can’t because there’s no accommodation.”

“It’s something the council will need to discuss,” he said. “Until that discussion takes

place, there’s no formal position of council.”

“I think as a result of yesterday, there’ll be a report at some stage come to council for us to have that discussion.

“Whether it’s time or not for council to intervene in some way, I don’t know.

“We’ll see where the discussion ... it’s up to those nine people around the table.”

Mr Burges once more stated it has been difficult to attract people to the region.

It was raised that selling off land such as the current Rose City FM site and the Clintonvale site mentioned in the parks optimisation program would free up land to be developed in the region for housing.

Mayor Vic Pennisi raised concerns about housing at the recent information session.

Council’s core business

By Dominique Tassell Southern Downs Regional Council outlined its core business at last week’s information session, giving the community an opportunity to get updates.

While Stanthorpe library and art gallery are undergoing work, chief executive officer Dave Burges said it’s “business as usual” at the Warwick library.

He said council is currently looking at what to do with the space in between the library and art gallery and “making that a more userfriendly and usable space”.

Mayor Vic Pennisi said they are currently looking at connecting the art gallery to the library.

“What used to be delivered in libraries fifty years ago, when I was knee-high to a grasshopper, what used to be delivered there has changed and morphed over time and going forward it will morph into something else,” he said.

“Libraries today you can, you build those robots and robotics and those sorts of things.”

“Libraries have morphed into something else and necessity is the mother of invention and as time moves on I have no doubt that the offer in the libraries will change over time.

“But it’ll be based on the public need and what the public feels. It’ll just morph into something else over time.”

Locals have expressed that the library is a place that could be utilised more to give space to youth in the region.

Mayor Pennisi referenced the Youth Council in response and said they try to use that group to highlight what is important to those groups.

Regarding youth services, Mayor Pennisi stated that the Youth Council wanted sport that wasn’t competitive to be available in the region, so they added the come and try days to the Stanthorpe Sports Association lease.

When asked about concerns regarding affordability at local pools and fitness centres such as WIRAC, Mr Burges stated that there are no plans for council to have an additional pool.

When asked for any plans to make WIRAC more affordable or accessible, the chief executive officer replied “Queen Mary Falls”.

Mr Burges and Mayor Pennisi stated the fees at places like WIRAC are put forward to Council to adopt in the fees and charges every year.

Mayor Pennisi said, “if you ask me what it’s worth to go into WIRAC I wouldn’t have a clue because there’s thousands of those fees and charges”.

“If there’s a request from the public to review them during the budget process, we’ll review them.

“Anything that you don’t make out of WIRAC, the ratepayer will subsidise the rest.

“We already subsidise WIRAC to the tune of about $600,000.

“It was a lot more than that, it was over a

million and when the YMCA took over, they’re obviously better placed to run those types of facilities than what we are, and the running costs were seriously reduced.”

We requested to have the WIRAC costs, broken down into capital works and operating costs, for before and after the YMCA was involved sent through to us.

A Council spokesperson stated they would provide this, but it would take time.

Mayor Pennisi stated that WIRAC has “been neglected for too long, we need to fix it and bring it up to scratch.”

He acknowledged it “certainly uses up a lot of our resources.”

When asked whether there had been an assessment by staff on what it would cost to just build a new pool in comparison to upgrading the existing facilities, Mayor Pennisi stated Council had those conversations a few years ago.

He stated that council made a decision to “bring this one up to the speck that’s required”.

He said that maintaining the current facili-

ties and building new ones would both present issues.

“We have an obligation and a responsibility,” he said.

“There’s no one going to come and take the whole thing over.

It’s a community service obligation, we provide swimming pools all over the region and they all run at a loss. There isn’t any that make a profit.”

He stated that the pool is the most costly of the facilities to maintain.

“I think if you wind the clock back, I don’t know that they would have put an indoor pool in that fashion the way that they did.

“They probably would have left it as a diving pool and the Olympic pool that was there and maybe had something less expensive somewhere else to cater for the winter months ‘cause the heated pool is really catering for the winter months.”

Mayor Pennisi stated that council can reverse any decision made by a previous council if locals feel strongly about it.

Regarding other pools in the region, a council spokesperson stated that works will commence on the solar heating at Killarney and Allora pools when they are closed for winter.

Regarding council’s waste strategy, Mayor Pennisi stated that “there will be conversations going forward on how we’re going to look at waste holistically”.

He said conversations regarding a recycling facility in collaboration with other councils is “still ongoing”.

“I don’t know what the outcome of that will be, ultimately.”

“It’s a big issue and an issue that we need to...it’s costing more and more money because of compliance every year and the only place we can get that extra money is from ratepayers.

“So if we can find a better way we need to try and explore a better way.”

Join March for Justice A March for Justice will be held Sunday 27 February in Warwick.

The gathering will occur at the Leslie Park Rotunda from 4 pm.

The event is part of a National Day of Action designed to show solidarity and end gendered violence by working together to achieve justice, equality and respect.

Women’s Advocacy and Action Team (WAAT) stated that “the March for Justice held on 15 March 2021 was a monumental national event which made our Federal Government sit up and listen, sadly since that time very little action has occurred”.

“This has been mirrored in our region, hence the desire to have a follow up gathering and lobby for desperately needed local services.”

A photo from last year’s March For Justice.

The gathering will advocate for action on local needs and service gaps.

Promotional material for the event states that “this gathering is part of the M4J2 National Day of Action and is our opportunity to show those in power that we won’t be silenced about gendered violence”.

“We want ACTION - not meaningless announcements.”

Attendees are asked to bring or wear: Black clothing to mourn the women and children lost to gendered violence and sexual assault.

Pub Rock opening a hit

By Dominique Tassell Warwick Art Gallery officially opened its pub rock exhibition on Friday 18 February.

The exhibition celebrates the people, places and sounds of Australian pub rock and its enduring impact on the nation’s identity.

The pub rock phenomenon spread across Australia throughout the ‘70s and ‘80s, resulting in an evolution of music that has had an enduring impact on Australia’s identity and culture. Numerous Australian bands cultivated their style and their followings in urban pubs, making these venues – some now long-gone –

integral to the evolution of Australian rock and pop music. For the artists documenting this distinct cultural moment, the line between fan and portraitist was naturally blurred.

Warwick Art Gallery is free to enter. It is open Tuesday to Saturday from 10 am to 4 pm.

Pub Rock is on from 17 February to 16 March 2022.

This exhibition is supported by the National Collecting Institutions Touring and Outreach Program, an Australian Government program aiming to improve access to the national collections for all Australians.

Check out our photos from the opening.

Kick-start for local kids

Soils For Life is taking place at Junabee Hall on 4 March at 6pm.

Ag function coming up Soils For Life, a regenerative agriculture function, is taking place at Junabee Hall on 4 March at 6pm.

With a panel of experienced farmers and guest speakers, the event will be a discussion and information session about the role of healthy soils in creating resilient farms and families.

Soils For Life committee member Chris Rubie said the purpose of these discussions is to get a foothold on regenerative agriculture in the Southern Downs and to ensure the viability of farms.

“It’s to learn more about soil and therefore

maximise production – regenerative farming reduces the use and dependence on expensive poisons,” Chris said.

“Healthier soil, animals, and crops means healthier humans.”

Other topics the function will cover include regenerative agriculture improving the profitability, production, farm sustainability, drought resilience, and wellbeing of regional farms.

Bookings are essential as numbers are limited – RSVP before Monday 28 February.

Contact Chris Rubie on 0497 094 179 or email chris@sovereignpolldorsets.com.au for more information.

as well as an increased awareness of sustainability issues.”

Samantha Page, chief executive officer Early Childhood Australia, said: “Early childhood education and care plays an important role in sustainability. By participating in hands-on learning experiences such as setting up recycling programs, growing veggies or plants and exploring local animal habitats, Southern Downs children learn to explore, appreciate and care for the environment around them.

“The first five years of life sets the foundation for life-long learning and the earlier we educate children about the importance of sustainability, the better chance we have of a more sustainable future for our Regional community.”

The Woolworths Junior Landcare Grants program has been funded via the sale of Woolworths Bag for Good. Bag for Good was launched in 2018, when Woolworths went single-use plastic bag free.

To date, Woolworths has contributed more than $3 million to a total of 2760 Primary Schools and Early Learning Centres across Australia.

Applications for the 2022 Woolworths Junior Landcare Grants are open now and close 18 March 2022. To find out more about the Woolworths Junior Landcare Grants Program and to apply, visit landcareaustralia.org.au/woolworthsgrants

Local Southern Downs students are set to get a kick-start in becoming future environmental champions, with schools in the Southern Downs given the chance to share in $1 million through the 2022 Woolworths Junior Landcare Grants.

Woolworths will offer Southern Downs schools and early learning centres, up to $1000 each, to develop projects that focus on sustainable food production, improving waste management practices or enhancing native habitats.

Woolworths Queensland State Manager, Danny Baldwin said: “Educating young Southern Downs kids on how we can grow a greener future through hands-on learning is an incredible way to make an impact for future generations, and help our local communities today.

“The life-long skills that these young students will gain helps to plant the seeds for a more sustainable and environmental future.

“Last year, our Woolworths Junior Landcare Grant program saw the highest number of applicants ever. This increased demand is promising to see, as we understand schools and early learning centres in the Southern Downs are wanting to provide enhanced lessons on sustainability in classrooms.”

Landcare Australia chief executive officer, Dr Shane Norrish said: “Our goal is to encourage, influence and educate students on how to care for their local environment in a hands-on way.

“The Woolworths Junior Landcare Grants help grow students’ understanding of the importance of caring for the Southern Downs environment, beginning in their own school or early learning centre. To date the program has seen more than 110,000 fruit, vegetable and herb plants added to school gardens across the country. Through taking part, students learn new skills and knowledge such as composting, worm farming and planting bush tucker gardens,

ESD critiques tiresome We would like to respond to Mr. Pitards letter dated the 17th of February.

We are busy people as we have a dam to build, so we will keep it brief.

Unfortunately we fell asleep after the first two paragraphs.

So we will respond accordingly.

The Granite Belt is a very lucky region to have so many self proclaimed expert dam builders.

It is sadly regrettable that none of them have ever been heard of in the professional world.

To continually try and discredit a world renowned company like Jacobs has become tiresome.

They deemed the project viable so deal with it.

If this small group of experts could take the time to actually come up with their own costed and extensively researched alternatives they may be taken more seriously.

Till then looking forward to the first soil being turned and them actively chaining themselves to a few trees for everyone’s entertainment. But that would actually take up some of their own personal time so it most probably would not happen.

Best regards, The Emu Swamp Brigade

Show some respect Once again I am confronted in your Opinion Section by a letter, which takes aim at one of the Southern Downs Regional Councillors in a very personal and defamatory manner.

If there is to be debate on important issues and if we, as a community, are to benefit from the work of our elected representatives, then some respect must be shown along the way.

To take aim at Councillor McNally because she is self-funding a visit to Airlie Beach to attend the Local Government Women’s Association Conference and to spin this out into an anti-feminist rant is ridiculous.

To suggest that her commitment to gender equity and the rights of women is connected to

her loss of the Deputy Mayoral status is, to say the least, childish.

Thank goodness we have people to represent us who have values from which we can all benefit, if we have a mind to listen first and then respond. It does no good to attack in this very personal and defamatory way.

I would remind E. Smith, whoever she is, that the people of the Southern Downs have elected Councillor McNally and that there will be an opportunity to register her concerns at the ballot box.

In the meantime she would do well to engage in a much more respectful dialogue so that progress may be made and the politics of personality can be left out of it.

John Lucas

A ‘political hit’ rather than a genuine opinion Re: Ms. Smith’s letter: Councillor McNally’s attendance at a Local Government Womens Conference is by any reasonable consideration entirely appropriate and, in fact, commendable in that she paid her own expenses and is making an effort to broaden her understanding of a legitimate council and public issue.

And most publicly aware and fair minded people would fully support Councillor McNally’s attending a public meeting regarding the lack of equitable representation of women in Federal parliament.

As we live in a democracy and this issue is significant in the public domain, I think it

strange that Ms Smith gives any thought to any councillor’s attendance at such an event.

Ms Smith’s ignoring of the context of the event and then assumption of relevance to SDRC is not based on any evidence she has offered.

Of more concern with Ms Smith’s letter is what appears to be a toxic comment about Councillor McNally’s need for temporary leave from official council duties.

I don’t know nor wish to know the reason for Councillor McNally’s leave because I believe personal matters are not the public’s business.

Family matters, health reasons or whatever, it is Councillor McNalley and SDRC’s business and her leave was obviously legitimate and appropriately approved by council.

In her letter Ms Smith has distorted and drawn some quite vindictive assumptions from certain events which leads me to wonder whether her letter is actually a ‘political hit’ rather that a genuine opinion of a fair dinkum person?

John Morison

We should be embracing more diversity I write regarding the letter to the Editor “Cr McNally - Feminist champion or aggrieved exDeputy Mayor” by “E. Smith” (17/2).

It was extremely disappointing to read such vitriol included in the paper, normalising abuse directed towards women in public office.

Public trolling does not contribute to the

OPINION

discourse, and “E. Smith” obviously has a personal vendetta against C McNally.

Women in positions of power are subjected to abuse constantly and it has a known stifling effect on democracy.

Having leaders with mixed backgrounds, genders and ethnicity has been proven to make for better decisions and results in a range of businesses and offices. We should be embracing more diversity, not cutting down tall poppies.

If people are willing to be so hateful publicly (and be rewarded for their hate by being published) then I shudder to think how much worse abuse Cr McNallly receives in private.

Name withheld, Stanthorpe

Wonderful Warwick As an 87-year-old pedestrian, I wait at the crossings on Palmerin Street for cars to pass, but most times the cars stop for me – would only happen in Warwick.

However, when I wave my thanks to the lovely, kind, patient driver, endorphins kick in, and I feel an overwhelming sense of happiness, and count my blessings to be living in wonderful Warwick. Thank you.

Warwick C.B.D signage The Editor, I am writing to voice my opinion of the perceived confusion regarding the signage in the C.B.D, when the sign clearly says ‘Pedestrians Give Way to Vehicles’, I fail to see any confusion in this very clear message.

My observation has been even when pedestrians do wait then the cars stop.

I feel the only confusion occurs when pedestrians mistake the white stripes on the speed at roundabouts as a pedestrian crossing.

My understanding of roundabouts is they were installed to keep the traffic flowing, not to have pedestrians walk across them forcing traffic to back up on the roundabout.

The signage needs to be visible or permanent at all sites, especially roundabouts.

Yours faithfully, An exasperated citizen

Celebrating its twentieth anniversary on Sunday 27 March 2020, Neighbour Day is a national initiative launched by Relationships Australia to reduce loneliness by building respectful and sustainable connections across communities.

“At the heart of this initiative is a timely reminder of the importance of building and nurturing social connections with the people in our immediate community and indeed over the backyard fence.

“I look forward to seeing how neighbours across the Southern Downs come together to celebrate Neighbour Day.”

Southern Downs Councillor Marco Gliori praised the humanity of the program and hoped the local community would get behind the annual celebration by applying for one of the grants.

Want to host an event for your neighbourhood?

To win a $200 voucher, go to https://www.sdrc. qld.gov.au/neighbourday and tell us about your Neighbour Day celebration and how it will encourage people to connect with those who live in your neighbourhood (200 words or less). Entries are open now until Sunday 13 March 2022. Winners will be notified by phone on Monday 21 March 2022. Terms and conditions apply.

“While we are a proud and resilient community, as a region we are prone to natural disasters which heightens the need for us to look out for one another,” Councillor Gliori said.

Funding for this activity is through the Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangement (2018), a joint arrangement between the Australian and Queensland Governments.

Council is supporting the initiative in 2022 by offering $200 Woolworths Essential gift cards to 20 neighbourhood-organised events on Neighbour Day.

Is your water meter easily accessible?

Half-yearly water meter readings commence across the region from Monday 21 February 2022. Council’s water meter readers will be easily identifiable in SDRC-branded uniforms and it would be appreciated if the community would ensure meters are clear of debris and safe to access.

A Council spokesperson said a quick review and tidy up around the water meter area would ensure minimal disruption to gardens and residents’ daily routines.

If gates are locked or an animal prevents Council staff from accessing meters, a calling card will be left in the letter box asking residents to call 1300 697372 to arrange access.

As undetected water leaks can unintentionally increase metered water consumption and be costly, Council also recommends residents regularly read property water meters at a similar time each week to track water usage and identify fluctuations.

“Council asks that residents keep water meters accessible and clear of garden debris, grass, mulch, building materials, vehicles and other objects,” the spokesperson said.

Council thanks the community for their cooperation and compliance in keeping meters clear and accessible.

“We all love our pets, but during meter reading time, Council requests that unrestrained dogs be controlled or restrained behind closed gates – this will keep everyone safe.”

Water notices for this half-year period will be issued in April 2022. Anyone experiencing issues with payments should contact Council to arrange a confidential payment agreement.

The Guide PICK OF THE WEEK

WOULD I LIE TO YOU? AUSTRALIA 10, Monday, 8.30pm

EUROVISION: AUSTRALIA DECIDES SBS, Saturday, 7.30pm

Australians are finally getting a local version of the much-loved British comedy panel show hosted by Rob Brydon, more than 15 years after it debuted. It’s better late than never though, with this Aussie format attracting the top-notch talents of Chrissie Swan as host, along with team captains Chris Taylor (The Chaser) and comedian Frank Woodley (pictured, right with Swan and Taylor) in a spectacle where each team must spin a ludicrous tale, with the opposing team guessing whether it is in fact truth, or fiction. In the premiere episode, Chris is joined by Carrie Bickmore and Ross Noble, while Frank coaches Luke McGregor and Zoë Coombs Marr in the art of deception. Tune in for a playful distraction.

Glitter. Sparkles. Over-the-top dance sequences. There’s a lot to love about Eurovision. Since 2015, Aussie viewers have had an extra incentive to tune in and enjoy the melodic spectacle, with Australia joining the list of competitors. In this live special, hosts Joel Creasey and Myf Warhurst (pictured) showcase the artists, including Paulini, and Jaguar Jonze and Isaiah Firebrace, competing for their chance to represent Australia at this year’s Eurovision Song Contest in Turin, Italy.

KILLING EVE ABC TV, Sunday, 9.30pm

After three enthralling, unpredictable seasons, the final instalment of Killing Eve is premiering with a racing pulse of gunshots, messy relationships, gorgeous clothes and breathtaking locations; for a spy thriller, it revels in subverting our expectations of genre and characters. As with past seasons, there’s an exciting new showrunner in Laura Neal (Sex Education). In “Just Dunk Me”, Eve (Sandra Oh) is out for revenge, whlie Villanelle (Jodie Comer, pictured) has found a fresh community to try to prove she is not a monster.

SAS AUSTRALIA Seven, Tuesday, 7.30pm

There aren’t any TV shows that advise viewer discretion not to watch on a full stomach, but perhaps that should change. “What doesn’t kill you, makes you”, declares chief instructor Ant Middleton (pictured) in this gruelling series. Some of the tasks (and the celebrities’ reactions) are so extreme that witnessing it could almost make you feel like throwing up. In this episode about leadership, discord among the recruits explodes, with a US Navy SEAL-style surf battle and a taxing waterfall climb.

This week on the farm

By Judy Barnet, Ag Columnist

View from my early morning paddle.

CJ has been going crazy on the rider mower and was delighted to find an old trailer to tow behind it lying in our piles of junk. I keep telling her there is a reason we never throw anything away on the farm!

A few years ago, the Rare Breeds Trust received a call asking for help in finding homes for one of Australia’s rarest breeds of sheep, a breed that originated in Australia, developed by the CSIRO. The Elliotdale breed, named after the research station, was a carpet wool sheep but with carpet being made overseas these days it had fallen out of favour. The RBTA struggled to get any takers for the sheep but such is her dedication that our Director and Coordinator of Sheep, Sue Curliss, bought what she could of the flock herself. Sue persevered with the breed and was able to get it accepted into the ASSBA Flock Book – no small feat. Here, Sue tells you a bit about the breed she brought back from the brink: (SUBHEAD) The Elliottdale – Australia’s Own Specialty Carpet Wool Breed The Elliottdale sheep was developed at the Elliott Research Station in Tasmania and is a dual-purpose sheep, although it was originally bred for speciality carpet wool. The rams should be polled and when mature, generally weigh around 80kg. The ewes are also polled and weigh in a little smaller at around 58kg.

The Elliottdale breed was founded using the main gene for fibre medullation called El, which was isolated from Romney stock, and bred into Romney ewes. The breed’s development began in 1967/68 when the late Mr Ron Sides identified a rare mutant gene that had the potential to produce speciality carpet wool. At each shearing, and due to the wool length, there are two per year, the sheep cut around 6.0 - 8.0kg of wool. The wool has a fibre diameter varying from 18 to 120 microns, the mean being about 42 microns. Staple length grows to about 300mm per annum, requiring two shearings per annum giving a long staple length of 120-150mm. The colour is dull, chalky white and the fleece is harsh to the handle. At least 30 per cent of the fibres are medullated or hollow, the quality giving resistance to compression in the pile, resistance to abrasion wear, and good appearance retention in the carpet.

The Elliottdale breed was commercialised in 1976 when the Australian Carpet Wool Industry was established. The effect of the Elliottdale gene (El) is similar to that of the Drysdale, Tukidale and to a lesser degree, the Carpetmaster (N series genes) in the Romney breed but is at a different locus on the chromosome. The El gene is semi-dominant, allowing homozygous lambs to be identified at birth, and unlike the other carpet wool breeds, is not associated with the gene for horns.

The Elliottdale Project was terminated in 1993 and the Research Station became a Dairy Research Facility. Mr Carl Terrey, a research worker and member of the Elliottdale Research

team bought several of the sheep and continued to breed them. When the flock was at the Elliott Research Station it was performance recorded, and breeding indices were developed by geneticists for both wool and meat.

Although Carl did not have the same resources as the Research Station, he continued to use traditional stud phenotypic selection, with an emphasis on conformation and carcass market suitability, as this is where the economics of the breeding enterprise is based today.

Subjective selection for sound conformation is along traditional lines for dual-purpose breeds with emphasis on: Good prime lamb carcass conformation Capability for easy lambing and excellent mothering Uniform and dense coverage of best AAA quality carpet wool Soundness for easy care, particularly sound feet, dense staple, and open faces I first became aware of the Elliottdale breed when I was serving as Sheep Coordinator for the Rare Breeds Trust of Australia, and we discovered the last remaining flock of this beautiful breed was sadly being dispersed due to Carl, the breeder’s, deteriorating health. We desperately tried to find some new owners for the flock but the lack of commercial value of carpet wool in Australia and the requirement of bi-annual shearing made the sale difficult.

After several discussions with Carl, he decided to split the flock into breeding groups thus allowing people to purchase a smaller group and continue breeding them, with the emphasis on a Conservation flock rather than for commercial value. My research on the rare sheep breeds in Australia had made me very aware of

· · · ·

the vulnerabilities of breeds and the fine line between survival and extinction and I didn’t want to see another breed lost, especially one developed in Australia, so we bought a breeding group of eighteen ewes and two rams. Two other breeders also bought breeding groups, and sadly the remaining flock went to market.

As the criteria for being classed as a rare breed includes having a Registry, I approached the Australian Stud Sheep Breeders Association to see if we could be included in their Register and they were very happy to welcome us as a breed. Last year, the Elliottdale was accepted into the ASSBA Stud Register, and we also developed our own Association – the Elliottdale Sheep Breeders Association.

Keeping a Conservation flock is always going to be a labour of love more than a commercial venture, but I couldn’t be happier with this beautiful breed of sheep. They are delightful to own – a great size, sensible, easy to handle and with the most beautiful fleece. There is nothing quite like seeing the flock running towards you on a windy day, with their locks flying behind them. It is obviously not the softest of fleeces, but fleece and wool should always be appreciated for its purpose, and the purpose of Elliottdale is carpet, so perfect wool for rugs and homewares as well. Those who have chosen to purchase Elliottdales from us, have been very happy with their choice and they quickly become a talking point in the paddock. They also make beautiful pets, with their gentle temperaments.

And the most important thing - a breed that Carl and many others put their lives into developing and maintaining is still with us and hopefully will be for many years to come.

What a busy week. As I write, we are just taking a break from photographing and videoing the lambs for our annual sale. It feels like I have picked the hottest day! Unfortunately, we couldn’t start the job as early as we would have liked as I had an MLA (Meat Livestock Australia) audit this morning. The audit went well, the auditor had a farm herself so had a complete understanding of farming and was super easy to get on with. I think these audits are a good thing. You are given plenty of notice and I took the opportunity to do a good clean up of my paperwork to make sure it was all well in order and to clean up and throw out any old vet medicines I had lying around that had long expired. I also cast a critical eye over the yards and outbuilding to make sure there were no old oil drums etc lying around.

Richie has got the tractor back in action, a temporary fix, and nearly finished slashing one paddock specifically for the sale lambs.

They will get a haircut after their glamour shots and then reside in the slashed paddock until after the sale. Part of the reason for this is so they don’t pick up burrs and weed seed and carry it over to their new home. I mentioned last week I felt that they weren’t doing as well as I would have liked but after weighing and assessing they are pretty good on the whole despite a few runty looking specimens that won’t make the grade.

With sheep joining time only around six weeks away I realised I would need to purchase a new ram as my aged ram bit the dust a few weeks ago. A few years ago Richie and I went down to the Bendigo Sheep and Wool Show.

One breeder stood out by a country mile, due to the type of Southdowns he was exhibiting.

They were very much in line with my mediumframed historic type of Southdown sheep, compared to the long-legged clean-faced modern type. Silk Southdowns are a familyrun affair and their attention to detail and presentation of the sheep is absolutely first class.

I contacted Simon. Unfortunately, he had sold all of his stud rams for the year, however, he did have a few that were currently being joined to his own ewes that may be available towards the end of April. We normally put our rams in on the first of April but for the Southdowns, we will delay this year if Simon has a ram available later in the month.

Some excellent news – we were able to get Vicky Shorthorn artificially inseminated last week. One down, three to go! My decision to persevere despite the costs and difficulties of my distance from the AI man was justified when I received this email from a cattle and sheep judge I had contacted about my sheep, including a couple of photos of the girls I thought he might like to see. He had this to say: “Based on what I can observe in the two photos, those two Shorthorns are spectacular. They have excellent volume without being extreme frame, beautifully muscled whilst remaining feminine, ideal bone and appear to be structurally very correct, similar to some I’ve seen in a top herd in Iowa, USA. “Your heifers could walk into any show ring and be very competitive, especially if they have a calf at foot.”

I have only been able to get out in the kayak once this week. I was out on the water around 5.45 am, just as the sun was starting to poke its smiling face up over the hill. It was absolutely still and beautiful and I managed to get a couple of photos. Dora Dog had to stay home much to her disgust. I had her desexed last week and she is not allowed near the water until the stitches come out. On top of that, she was not supposed to run around or jump for five to seven days after the op. We managed five days with a great deal of difficulty. Since then she has been unstoppable, however, she seems to be healing well.

In the cottage this week we had Paula and Derek, friends from back in my Clintonvale days. They came out at the same time last year for Derek’s birthday and decided to celebrate it with us again this year. We were honoured they chose to celebrate with us once again. Derek and Paula used to have a Hereford Stud and Derek is a gardener so we always have lots of talk about. I was pleased to show him the two Hereford heifers I brought from the Pig and Calf Sale last October. Drought forced them off the farm many years ago so seeing the heifers brought back memories that were bittersweet I think.

Stanthorpe of old: 1882 The following is an excerpt from an 11 February 1882 newspaper article, digitised by the State Library of Queensland: As I write there is a steady rain falling, which commenced about midday yesterday, and has continued to the present without intermission other than an occasional abatement to a “Scotch mist.”

This, following closely upon the heavy downpour which occurred last week, bids fair to materially improve the agricultural, pastoral, and mining prospects of the district.

Apropos of mining, there is nothing particularly fresh or startling to record.

An attempt was made last week to jump Salter’s rich tribute claim on the Severn River, but the jumpers, having found a mare’s nest were compelled to beat a hasty retreat, much to the satisfaction of the honest and hardworking section of the mining community.

No fresh finds have occurred lately, but now that there is a probability of sufficient watorforouldido prospecting something may turn up before my next letter.

All the old mines continue to yield satisfactory returns.

In fact, I may fairly state that the aspect of mining affairs in the Stanthorpe and adjoining districts is more encouraging than it has been for some time past.

The pastoral and agricultural prospects are also, by reason of the welcome change in the weather, most pleasant, and should dispel all fears of starving stock in the coming winter, whilst, though somewhat late in the season, it will no doubt improve the position of those in favour of carrying out our usual annual show this year, from an agricultural point of view.

There is a division of opinion anent the holding of an exhibition of local products this year in Stanthorpe.

Mit the majority have decided to do so, and I am of the same opinion as the majority that we shall be able to compare favourably with our neighbours of Warwick and Tenterfield, if the producers and committee only work amicably and unitedly in the interests of the district.

The country looks well in all directions around Stanthorpe.

The Premier in Stanthorpe The following is an excerpt from an 24 September 1883 newspaper article, digitised by the State Library of Queensland.

The Premier at Stanthorpe The Hon the Premier accompanied by Mr B D Morehead, member for the Balonne, proceeded by special train to Stanthorpe on Saturday, in order to be present at a meeting to beheld that evening by Mr P O Sullivan, one of the candidates for the representation of the Carnarvon electorate.

The train left Brisbane at 8 a.m., and reached Stanthorpe shortly before 6 o’clock in the evening.

About thirty people were assembled at the station and on the train drawing up to the platform three cheers were given for the Premier Sir Thomas and Mr Morehead after a short drive round the town, put up at Talley’s hotel.

The meeting was held in the Good Templar s’ Hall.

The building, capable of holding about 200 people, was filled to overflowing.

The Premier, Mr Morehead, and Mr O Sullivan were greeted with applause, intermixed with main relations of dissent from one or two of those present.

This latter gave umbrage to three or four persons sitting in the front row, who got up and going to the part whence the sounds of dissent had come, gave free expressions to their opinion in a rather demonstrative way.

This little disturbance, however, soon subsided.

In a few opening remarks, the candidates were briefly introduced.

Mr O Sullivan who was received with applause, spoke for about an hour on the hiding political questions now before the country.

He contrasted the position of the colony when the Government took office with its present prosperous state, and referred to the mail service as having been a great factor.

He had been put in at the head of the poll with Mr. Kellett as his colleague, for the Stanley electorate.

Since then, Mr Kellett, having had a quarrel with some of the present Government, had turned round but he (Mr O’Sullivan) had stuck to his country and the result was that he had been defeated.

However, although he had lost his seat, he dwelt at some length on the advantages of the land grant system as a means of maintaining the progress of the colony, and of settling the people on the lands.

He said he had always supported the constitution and had advocated that 1 issued a line as a link in a railway that would give it a far more direct unit than the present from Brisbane to Warwick and the southern border.

There was not a single branch line in the colony but had been established by the present Government.

Cherry trees at J. and H. Roesslers’ orchard (Applethorpe) the first commercial orchard north of Stanthorpe.

Stanthorpe back in 1884 In 1884: For the first occasion since its inception the Show Society had no show, because of the ravages of drought, development slowed down in the whole colony.

The following is an excerpt from the historical book, ‘They Came to a Plateau’, from the chapter ‘Mighty Oaks out of Little Acorns Grow’.

‘In light of further research interesting patterns of settlement emerge.

In 1880 it was felt by those wishing to develop horticulture that there was apathy by the Government to open up the best portions for selection, but the Government was hampered by objections from the mining community, who did not wish land to be offered for selection which might still produce tin.

With the completion of the railway, land values increased by 20 per cent.

The pattern of development was dictated by areas available, not always the best agricultural land.

George and Eliza Smith selected Lyra and commenced fruit growing in 1887.

Mr Smith, a builder by trade, had sleeper cutting contracts on the railway extensions from 1885-87.

Robert Mungall had bridge building contracts and also selected land, both inspired by T.H. Fletcher’s success with the first commercial orchard.

Thus the first fruit growing took place at Lyra, Ballandean, Wallangarra, Sugarloaf and Broadwater – but not necessarily on the best lands, which was known by Smith Bros. who moved quickly into Ballandean and Glen Aplin areas as selected prices opened up.

A later example was Mr. A. H. Paget who was up to 1913 was at Eukey, but quickly saw the potential of the infant are of The Summit, and changed location.

Mr. T. H. Fletcher, Fr. Davadi and Mr. Robert Hoggan, as said elsewhere, demonstrated the potential of horticulture.’

Interest for town readers The following is an excerpt from a 3 March 1885 newspaper, digitised by the State Library of Queensland: The Premier and the Minister for Works at Stanthorpe “As promised in our last issue we give below the speeches delivered by the Hon. S. W. Griffith and the Hon. W. Miles at Stanthorpe on Thursday last; the latter has a special interest for our town readers.

The Premier, on rising to respond to the toast of ‘the Ministry’, was received with a loud cheer.

He said: ‘Mr. Noble, Mr. President, and Gentlemen, -in rising to thank you for the cordial manner in which you have received the toast of the Ministry, I will not detain you long, because this is a luncheon and not a formal dinner, and long speeches would probably be out of place; more than that, the time of many of us is limited.

But there are a few things, I should like to say to you before sitting down, and first let me express the pleasure I feel at being here today.

I am sorry his Excellency the Governor was not able to come.

I communicated with him last week, and he expressed his regret.

Noble gave us great credit for three good qualities.’”

The 1880s were part of the tin/mining boom in the region: 1885: Miners find it more lucrative on railway construction than on tin fields.

Big Picture: Listening in

By Emily-Rose Toohey The Big Picture is a podcast operating as part of The Ringer network, a sports and pop culture website founded by Bill Simmons.

Since its launch in 2016, the site has expanded and grown and more and more podcasts have been created.

While The Ringer first came to attention for its sports commentary, it has widened its reach with entertainment.

The Prestige TV Podcast, Ringer Dish, The Watch, and The Rewatchables comprise some of these podcast ventures, and these are not just limited to movie talk.

They include the hosts discussing television and the current happenings in celebrity culture.

However, this review will focus on The Big Picture – a pure movie discussion pod.

The Big Picture sees its hosts, Sean Fennessey and Amanda Dobbins, discuss the best in past and present film.

This includes reviews, awards show reactions, rankings, and lists.

While this may not sound exceptionally

thrilling when it’s written so plainly, the show is in fact incredibly entertaining.

Sean and Amanda’s commentary is both insightful and interesting, and it keeps listeners engaged – especially when there are friendly disagreements.

It’s a podcast designed for the enjoyment of film enthusiasts, but both casual and hardcore movie goers are able to gain insights from the hosts who have an extensive knowledge of the industry and its history.

You’ll find yourself learning about different filmmakers, gaining film suggestions, and becoming invested (if you weren’t already) in the highs, lows, and dramatics of awards season.

In a world of a plethora of Hollywood productions being released every year and an overwhelming selection of films available on streaming services, it’s useful to have some clarity and recommendations.

The Big Picture provides this.

While the podcast as a whole may only cater to a specialised audience, it’s well worth a listen.

The Big Picture is available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and wherever you get your podcasts.

2. Circe by Madeline Miller In the house of Helios, god of the sun and mightiest of the Titans, a daughter is born.

Circe is a strange child – not powerful and terrible, like her father, nor gorgeous and mercenary like her mother.

Scorned and rejected, Circe grows up in the shadows, at home in neither the world of gods or mortals. But Circe has a dark power of her own: witchcraft.

When her gift threatens the gods, she is banished to the island of Aiaia where she hones her occult craft, casting spells, gathering strange herbs and taming wild beasts.

Yet a woman who stands alone will never be left in peace for long – and among her island’s guests is an unexpected visitor: the mortal Odysseus, for whom Circe will risk everything.

3. The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood When a fake relationship between scientists meets the irresistible force of attraction, it throws one woman’s carefully calculated theories on love into chaos.

As a third-year Ph.D. candidate, Olive Smith doesn’t believe in lasting romantic relationships but her best friend does, and that’s what got her into this situation.

Convincing Anh that Olive on her way to a happily ever after was always going to be tough, scientists require proof.

So, like any self-respecting woman, Olive panics and kisses the first man she sees.

That man is none other than Adam Carlsen, a young hotshot professor and well-known ass.

Which is why Olive is positively floored when he agrees to keep her charade a secret and be her fake boyfriend.

But when a big science conference goes haywire and Adam surprises her again with his unyielding support, their little experiment feels dangerously close to combustion.

4. It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover Sometimes the one who loves you is the one who hurts you the most. Lily hasn’t always had it easy, but that’s never stopped her from working hard for the life she wants.

She’s come a long way from the small town in Maine where she grew up - she graduated from college, moved to Boston, and started her own business.

So when she feels a spark with a gorgeous neurosurgeon named Ryle Kincaid, everything in Lily’s life suddenly seems almost too good to be true. Ryle is assertive, stubborn, maybe even a little arrogant.

He’s also sensitive, brilliant, and has a total soft spot for Lily, but Ryle’s complete aversion to relationships is disturbing.

As questions about her new relationship overwhelm her, so do thoughts of Atlas Corrigan - her first love and a link to the past she left behind.

He was her kindred spirit, her protector.

When Atlas suddenly reappears, everything Lily has built with Ryle is threatened.

With this bold and deeply personal novel, Colleen Hoover delivers a heart-wrenching story that breaks exciting new ground for her as a writer.

It Ends With Us is an unforgettable tale of love that comes at the ultimate price.

5. An Unapologetic Cookbook

by Joshua Weissman A Weissman once said “…can we please stop with the barrage of 2.3 second meals that only need 1 ingredient? I get it…we’re busy.

But let’s refocus on the fact that beautifully crafted burgers don’t grow on trees.”

Joshua Weissman is an online sensation, known for his ‘But Better’ series where he takes well-known meals and makes them from scratch at home.

While he’s known for his somewhat extravagant takes on fast food, he’s somehow not in danger of being called pretentious.

Swimming club action

By William Lister Since last year my brother Jeremy and I have been doing swimming club and swimming squad at the Stanthorpe Pool.

Swimming Club is on Friday nights and we get to race in events but just to record our times and see if we can go faster than last time.

Swimming squad is the training which is on before and after school.

Last Friday we did the Elaine Goebel Relay

after club night.

It was the first time I’ve ever swam in a relay and I swam the 25m.

Because it’s a 50m pool some people had to start in the water.

We had to do two relays with the same team in the same order and try to get the same time both times.

We haven’t got our results back yet. This Friday I can’t go to swimming club because I’ll be at the Scout Camp in Clifton.

Department of Regional Development, Manufacturing and Water

PROPOSED TOOWOOMBA TO WARWICK PIPELINE Community consultation.

Have your say!

Residents in Toowoomba and Southern Downs regional councils are invited to provide feedback on a proposed water pipeline from Toowoomba to Warwick, as part of a drought resilience package for the region.

In addition, an independent engineer has been engaged to assess Toowoomba’s ongoing water security and options, so that the community can have confidence in Toowoomba’s water security.

The pipeline is intended to be used as a contingency measure for drought conditions experienced by Southern Downs Regional Council, rather than a routine water source. The pipeline design could also enable the future provision of a daily raw water supply to the Toowoomba Regional Council satellite towns of Cambooya, Greenmount, Nobby, and Clifton.

Nine qualifying swimmers from Stanthorpe Swim Club competed in the event.

Swimmers make a splash wore their aqua coloured swim caps.

Isabella Jackson, Brianna Anderson, Levi Fittock, Ellice Gow, Zoe Petrie, Georgina Lester, Jessica Pradella, Lillian Kendall and Ava Lester comprised the nine representative swimmers.

For some of the kids and their families, this was their first state meet and was a great experience.

The swimming season for them is from September school holidays until Easter, meaning the training schedules are short.

Most competitors at this level train all year round with more favourable climate or indoor facilities in their favour.

The Stanthorpe swimmers made their competitors know they were there and made their mark.

The 50m short course included open events with heats and finals, 11-year-olds to 18-yearolds with heats and finals, 10-year-old times and finals, and multi class events heats and finals.

There were 80 events in four sessions over the course of the weekend.

Out of those 80 events, the Stanthorpe team competed in 24 events, finishing up with 14 personal bests for the team.

Long-time local coach Gail Smail was on

Casey O’Connor

Steketee is at the ready Good things comes to those who wait or so they say. Cricketer Mark Steketee (or Mark Spaghetti as Kerry O’Keefe cheekily dubbed him) must certainly be a believer.

It is no coincidence however that the quick, a product of Warwick Cricket, has received a call up to the Australian Test side to tour Pakistan.

It is reward for the Queensland quick who finishes the Sheffield Shield season as the leading wicket taker after an impressive season.

Earlier this week he was named as one of the top 50 Australian cricketers this season coming in at No 32. Unsurprisingly Pat Cummins was named at No1.

Steketee’s success is a victory for his patience and dedication to his craft. It should also be an inspiration for a number of young players from across the Southern Downs who are this week plying their craft at the QSS 1315 Cricket Championships.

Stanthorpe players Rohan Brady, Ryan Hines and Warwick’s Jack Ragh don’t need to look too far for inspiration.

I am sure there would have been some celebrating among family and friends in Warwick this week with the announcement of his selection.

There is no doubt Steketee will trouble the Pakistani batsmen almost as much if not more than his name will provide the local broadcasters with their share of headaches.

LOCAL SWIMMERS GET A TASTE OF CHAMPIONSHIPS

JOEY HINES – ENERGIZER BUNNY In the past week we farewelled Joey Hines a loveable larrikin and one of the better soccer (yes soccer not football) players to pull on a boot in Stanthorpe. Joey was a gifted sportsman and enjoyed not only soccer but rugby league and cricket. I, along with many others had the pleasure of playing alongside Joey back in the days of the Thulimbah Soccer team and also played cricket with him for Souths.

I clearly remember him as a talented and speedy winger and a mate who loved a frothy one.

It was on the soccer field that Joey shone.

Small in stature Joe was tough talented and a real energizer bunny. Off the field he was a real character and there were many funny stories (unable to be repeated here) recounted as mates gathered for his farewell. Joe suffered a debilitating stroke some years ago and coped with the aftermath in his own unique way. He will be sorely missed by his family and many friends.

- RIP Joey

A small group of Stanthorpe swimmers recently competed in the 2022 Queensland Sprint Championships at Brisbane Aquatic Centre.

WILSON DISPLAYS FULL BAG OF TRICKS The ever-present wind that has been a curse for Warwick golfers in past weeks was at its best on Saturday, but it did little to prevent some excellent scoring in the Secretary’s Pen; a a single stroke, honour board event sponsored

by Hynes Newsagency.

Doug Wilson had his best round for some time, recording nett 63 and is the latest golfer to have his name added to the honour board list.

Wilson playing off his 16 handicap has reputation for winning the nearest the pin shots and in doing so collects plenty of balls, but on Saturday he pulled out his full bag of tricks showcasing his entire game and finished a great round with 79 off the stick.

Runner up Nic Lane was one shot in arrears but a few shots ahead of Chris Hynes (67).

Kris McLennan also finished with 67 which was a one under off the stick in the tough conditions. The current club champion showing his likely to be the one to beat when the championships begin in a couple of weeks.

Darrell Bain, Shane McDonnell, Jay Roberts and Clayton Frank all recorded 68. Peter Hynes and Ron Simon were the only two players on 69 to win a ball in the run down.

This Saturday members play in a Canadian Foursomes sponsored by King Street Mechanical. Canadian Foursome format but one which is always enjoyed by players.

On Sunday players will be hoping conditions are good for the qualifying round of the Lane Cup. The mixed match play event is an honour board event with the top eight pairs qualifying for the final round. It is a noon shotgun start on Sunday.

Another reminder to the members. There are still payers not raking after taking their shot from the bunker. It is simple golf etiquette and rule to do so. Playing out of a bunker is never easy added difficulty of playing out of someone else size 12 hoofmark. It is after all simple golfing manners.

Isabella Jackson, Brianna Anderson, Levi Fittock, Ellice Gow, Zoe Petrie, Georgina Lester, Jessica Pradella, Lillian Kendall and Ava Lester proudly donned the Stanthorpe aqua caps.

It was exciting times for some of the kids (and families) as this was their first state meet and a great experience.

Unlike many competitors at this level who train all year round, the swimming season in Stanthorpe only runs from the September school holidays until Easter, therefore training schedules for Stanthorpe swimmers are short.

Despite this the Stanthorpe swimmers let their competitors know they were there and made their mark.

The 50m short course included heats and finals in the Open events, 11yr to 18yr group and times and finals for the 10yr age group.

There were also heats and finals in multi class events. In all 80 events in four sessions over the weekend.

The Stanthorpe group swam in 24 events. At the end of the meet the Stanthorpe swimmers had recorded 14 PB’s.

Stanthorpe coach, Gail Smail was on pool deck to meet the swimmers before and after their races and said, “The kids are there to soak up the atmosphere and it’s a reward for all their hard work so far.

“To enjoy swimming at the Queensland States, they deserve to be there as much as anyone else.”

President of the Stanthorpe Swim Club, Brendan Kay congratulated the nine swimmers and thanked their parents for their support. He also thanked Gail Smail for her continued support and guidance to the swimmers and club.

Last Friday night (18/2), the club held the Elaine Goebel Relay in memory of the late Elaine Goebel, a long-time supporter of the

swimming club. Teams of all ages nominated to race in either 50m or 25m. The goal for each team is to keep as close as possible to their first relay time recorded with the winning team not announced until the club’s presentation day.

Last Sunday Stanthorpe swimmers travelled to the Pittsworth Swimming Club.

It was a successful trip for 12-year- old Georgina Lester who won age champion finishing with three gold and two silver medals at the meet. She also set a new pool record for the 100m breaststroke. Teammate Ellice Gow was also successful winning two gold and one silver medal. A reminder that the Stanthorpe Swim Club Presentation day is scheduled for 27 March.

LANGHAM SLASHERS ON COURSE The Langham Slashers were treated to a spectacular February morning last Sunday for their early morning round of golf. The keen group the fairways with the sun shining and the birds chirping until the first couple of drives off the 10th tee hit that dreaded gum tree short right.

Gary Millard, the winner for the day, had no such trouble handling the conditions admirably to record an adjusted nett 20. The ever consistent, Laurie King was runner up with an adjusted nett 23. Brodie Quirk, (Gary’s future son-in-law) home for the weekend won the best gross with a commendable 42.

Wayne Wells came up with another booming drive finishing 20 meters past the stump on the right of the fairway at the 17th to again claim the longest drive. Another win this week and I understand Wells is likely to be the subject of an inquiry and there could even be a swab called for.

A dart that finished just two meters short of the pin on the 11th ensured the NTP went to Darren Rabbit. Danny (Tiger) Lyons cleaned up at the 13th with one of the best shots of his round.

The Bradman ball for the week went to last week’s winner, Doug McBeth.The handicappers adjustment, a hill too high to climb. Putting guru - Leigh Nisbet cleaned up all comers with a tremendous display needing only 12 putts for his nine holes.

At the other end of the scale, Robbie Eastwell struggled to find the hole winning the Ollie ball.

TRIP BACK TO FORM FOR MANY Stanthorpe Golfers played an individual stableford event last Saturday sponsored by local travel group, HelloWorld. Conditions on the course were very pleasant. Whether or not this was a contributing factor is unclear, but many golfers reported a general improvement in their scores. Quite a few players reclaimed their good form and there were some personal milestones achieved.

A number of players played to their handicap and there was none better than the men’s winner, Matt Waterworth, with a score of 40 points for the round. Matt’s round included an eagle two at the 14th hole. At his second shot the ball was in the hole at the bottom of the cup. Waterworth returned a gross score of 72, par for the round. Stephen Kay was another who had a good round. His 38 point secured the runner’s up prize.

Matt Waterworth was not the only player to record an eagle. Nathan Stibbard at the sixth and Scott Constable at the 11th both got in on the act. Stibbard’s playing partners reported his second shot onto the green at the par five sixth was very close to going into the hole. Apparently, he missed out on the albatross by the narrowest of margins.

Nikki Waterworth made sure the wins stayed in the family. A welcome return to form saw Nikki claim first place the Ladies’ event with a round of 39 points. Her score one point less than Matt. The improving Christine Hood finished two points back with 37 and claimed prize for the runner up.

Next Saturday golfers will be getting into festival mode playing for the Apple and Grape Cup. The individual stroke event sponsored by Spano’s Supa IGA Stanthorpe. The time sheet for this event is on the Board at the club and is filling fast.

A reminder also, still in the Festival mode the the Apple and Grape Two ball Ambrose sponsored by Crisps Coaches is on Friday 4 March. It is a 9am shot gun start and again the time sheet on the board at the club is filling fast. Players set to be joined on the course by some A & G celebrities. Get your names in now to avoid disappointment.

IRWIN MAKES IT TO WINNER’S CIRCLE Stanthorpe Sporters were joined on the back nine by several visitors last Sunday making up for a few notable absentees.

Mick Irwin has been hovering around the winners circle recently. He’s been close to a win on several occasions only to be stymied by a bad hole here and there. This all changed on Sunday. His round got off to a shaky start, but his game warmed up and recorded good scores for the remainder of the round to finally come away with a winning nett 27. It wasn’t all plain sailing for Irwin. He had to endure a three-way cut of the cards before getting the nod. Terry Byrnes (27nett) came off second best in the cut of the cards and was relegated to runner up leaving Aaron Simmers, (also nett 27), to pick up the dregs in the run down.

Ivan Juriss needed only 40 strokes for the nine holes to take the Best Gross. Ivan is another golfer whose game has been out of sorts lately. It was good to see him returning to form.

Only one of the two pin shots on offer were won. No one managed to stay on the 12th green. Angelo Maugeri had to be convinced his tee shot at 17 was on the green. He didn’t see that it had finished just centimetres from the pin leaving him an easy putt in for birdie.

Sporters will be out and about again next

Sunday morning on the front nine. Tee off is from 7.30 to 8am and there is a standing invitation for anyone to join the group.

WIN GIVES SOUTH’S MINOR PREMIERSHIP Stanthorpe Cricket has only one round of fixtures remaining before the finals, but the Minor Premiership sits safely in the hands of Souths following their win in last weekend’s top of the table clash with RSL at Sheehan Oval.

RSL won the toss and captain Luke Brady chose to bat first on a wicket that did not appear to hold too many gremlins.

When the RSL top order went cheaply much rested in the hands of Sam Dowie and Rohan Brady. Things were not looking too bad for RSL when Jordie Lanza claimed the Dowie’s wicket in the 27th over. The Score 3/83. Lanza clean bowled Brady four deliveries later and RSL were suddenly 4/84. From that point RSL crumbled like a house of cards.

No other batsman making it to double figures.

At the end of the innings, they were looking at defending a miserly 104 runs. South’s captain Jordie Lanza the main destroyer taking four wickets. Lachie Pill and Will Sheather each taking a pair.

The RSL bowlers were looking for something out of the wicket when they took the field.

Souths wobbled early and were 2/23 when the captain came to the wicket. Lanza scored a much needed 41no as partners came and went. When Tom Bonner (18) came to the wicket the score was 5/55 giving RSL and their supporters a glimmer of hope.

The partnership between Bonner and Lanza quickly took the score to 6/89 and in sight of victory. There were a few nervous moments when South’s eight and nine fell for ducks, but Souths got home in the 31st over. Young Noah Mackenzie and Anthony Di Bella did their best to conjure an RSL win each taking three wickets. The youngest Mackenzie, Ethan finished with a pair.

With the Minor premiership now decided and one more round of fixtures to be played, the Stanthorpe teams now have two weekends off. This weekend the Mitchell Shield team travels to Toowoomba in an effort to defend the Mitchell Shield against Toowoomba and the following weekend cricket is on hold due to the Apple and Grape Festival.

EASY WIN FOR VALLEYS Valleys and Wanderers played on the turf at CF White Oval on Saturday with Wanderers looking for a change of fortunes. Unfortunately, it was not to be.

The Wanderers bowlers did a reasonable job dismissing their opponents early in the 31st over for just 131.

Anthony Marino was the stalwart of the innings with a 46 not out. Captain Damian Anderson smacked a quick-fire 23 from 17 deliveries.

Wanderers Brendan barker took three wick-

ets and Eddie Filmer continued his recent good work with the ball taking two wickets.

Barry Bulow another in form with the ball claimed two wickets.

Wanderers could hardly have got off to a worse start. I the blink of an eye they were 3/8 thanks to some slick bowling by Coup and Martin. Things did not improve for Wanderers as their middle order collapsed. The only point of resistance coming from the captain Brendan Barker who remained no out 25.

Wanderers dismissed in the 23rd over for just 60.w The Valleys bowlers dominated Sandro Stefanon finished with 4/11 from eight overs which included two maidens. Martin and Andersen also bowled well each taking a pair.

RSL and Valleys are now locked on 18 points on the ladder. They meet on March 12 to determine who plays South in the Grand Final.

TIGHT RACE TO MINOR PREMIERSHIP With one round of fixtures remaining in the Warwick Cricket Association competition the race for the minor premiership will come down to the final game of the final round when Redbacks play Maryvale at Slade Oval on Sunday. Only one point separates the two sides. There is sure to be plenty of interest in Saturday’s game between Colts and Vic Hill.

Colts sit on 40.5 points and within striking range.

Last weekend Maryvale had a solid win over Vic Hill who were dismissed for a paltry 67 after being set 155 to win. Pat Bourke was again amongst the runs for Maryvale with another top score of 67.

Vic Hill batsmen had no answers as Paul Bourke cut a swathe through the batting line up taking 5/23 from 5.4 overs. Percy Kruger did his bit with the ball taking 2/8 from six overs. He was also sharp in the field running out Tom Morris.

Colts had a win over Allora after chasing down a total of 170. Colts breezed past the required runs in just the 28th over and for the loss of only two wickets. The Fern brothers the only wickets to fall. Tom for three and James for 23.

Maugan Benn remained not out 69 finding a willing batting partner in John Cleary who also remained not out 59 at the end of the innings. A good win for Colts heading into final’s territory.

In Saturday’s game on the Queen’s Park turf Wheatvale won the toss and sent Sovereign Animals in. It proved a good move when Sovereign were dismissed for 74 after 28 overs.

Wheatvale had little trouble reeling in the runs losing just the wicket of Lachie Boal (44) on their way to a big win.

In a bowling spell that helped win the match for Wheatvale’s R Doherty took an amazing 8/4 from just 6.2 overs. His spell included three maidens. Another repeat of those figures and he might be getting a call from the Australian or Qld Selectors.

Tony Schubert led a local Summit and finished in second place with three wins and a draw (+ 63).

GI Jopson’s team from Glen Innes were the last round winners .

At the completion of the round, a chip between all comers took place. The group lined up at the back of the 18th and chipped at the flag on the 9th. There was one small problem – an obstacle or two in the form of the gumtree tree on the edge of the 10th fairway and the hedges between the ninth and 10th. It proved the undoing of many but not Bert Bownds who came up trumps with a calculated shot negotiating all obstacles. His ball coming to rest about three meters from the pin and he claim the cash.

The Slashers will be back onto the front nine at 6.30am this Sunday. All golfers regardless of their competency level are welcome to join in the fun-filled morning.
