“We realised very quickly that the information that we had in the science community did not match what the local community said. “That makes a lot of sense because scientists can’t be everywhere and animals behave differently in different places. The importance of local knowledge really came through from thatTheexperience.”correlation of local knowledge and scientific knowledge is part of a new approach to shark safety in Queensland. After more than 60 years of almost total reliance on outmoded shark nets and drumlines, the new plan embraces a broad palette of technologies like drones and smart drums, plus a new approach to awareness and education programs that emphasises sharks are not the enemy – when we go into the ocean we are sharing their space.Speaking to a diverse group of marine stakeholders, ocean user groups, tourism authorities and local politicians – most of who had a love of surfing in common – Dr Chin outlined the conventional science about why and where sharks bite and then challenged it with local knowledge from Byron and Ballina, adding Noosa elements from the group as he went.

By Phil Jarratt To her dad and family friends she’s the pocket rocket. To her mates at Karate Noosa she’s known as Speedy. To avoid confusion here let’s just call Sophia Innis national champion. Sophia, 13, from Peregian Springs, is one of a new breed of local sporting juniors winning national honours this month, from the dojos of Rockhampton to the surf beaches of Port Macquarie. But Sophia was first, winning individual gold and team silver at the Australian Karate Federation National Championship in Rockhampton over the first weekend of August, competing in her age group (12/13) and fighting in the under 42kg division. In addition to her gold medal in kumite (sparring), Sophia won a silver medal in teams’ kumite, and placed a respectable fourth in kata (forms) in this, her first competition at national level, following cancellations of the nationals during Covid. Not that Speedy let the grass grow under herShe’sfeet. consistently won gold for both kumite and kata at regional and state level over the past four years. Standing only 148cm tall and weighing just 32kgs, Sophia is invariably one of the smallest competitors in her age group but, according to coach Bryan Dukas, only hardens her resolve to be better at her craft.

Listen to the locals, was the key message that came out of last week’s two-day SharkSmart workshop, hosted by the Noosa Biosphere ReserveFollowingFoundation.onfrom the first Noosa workshop last March, this one focused on fine-tuning messaging that combined local knowledge with scientific evidence in an attempt to increase awareness of real shark dangers, even in apparently benign waters like Noosa’s. Led by shark expert Dr Andrew Chin from the Centre for Sustainable Tropical Fisheries and Aquaculture at James Cook University, Townsville, the workshops were built around his relatively recent experience in community consultation in shark attack hot spots like Ballina and Byron Bay on the NSW northern rivers and Cid Harbour in the Whitsundays. “While the shark attacks at Cid Harbour were all related to diving and snorkelling and were exclusively tourists, I worked with the Byron and Ballina communities after they had a terrible run of shark incidents involving surfers, looking at the profound effects that had had on their communities, but also trying to get their perspective on what was safe and what wasn’t in local surf breaks,” Dr Chin told the workshop.

The Beach Sprint discipline is being proposed by World Rowing for inclusion in the 2028 Los Angeles Olympic Games, and this is the first national championship to be held in Australia for the discipline. Sculls, pairs and quads races will be organised by Rowing Australia with operational assistance from Rowing Queensland and Noosa’s local Coastal Rowing Club. Coastal rowing boats are broader than traditional rowing shells. The Beach Sprint races involve a head-tohead beach sprint of two crews over approximately 10-15 metres followed by a 250-metre slalom-course race to a buoy, a return leg of the same distance, and then a final sprint to the finish line. This, of course, means that the rowers must turn their crafts 180-degrees to return to the shoreline. The endurance format of the discipline also involves solos, doubles, and coxed quads over a distance of 4000 metres, which for Noosa would be from Main Beach to approximately 1st Point and return. “We are attracting membership from the wider rowing community with a number of new members maintaining joint membership with us and their flat water rowing clubs,” Mr Watson said.

“The best way to deal with the polarised views on dealing with the issues is to treat all of them with Meanwhile,respect.”theByron Bay and Ballina interactions have revealed a widespread commitment to accepting risk levels as a personal responsibility, something that is most likely replicated in Noosa’s surfing community.

Olympic rowing beckons

The inaugural Australian championships for Coastal Rowing, hosted by Rowing Australia and Rowing Queensland, start today at Noosa Beach-West and end on Sunday. Secretary of the Coastal Rowing Noosa, Peter Watson said “until now and without state and national competitions being available, Coastal Rowing Noosa has focussed on recreational and tour rowing with adult male and female rowers.With the advent of competition, we have reset our focus. We have set ourselves to attract a younger demographic for local and eliteAndcompetition.”elitecompetition

Coastal Rowing Noosa, with the support of Rowing Queensland, envisage the establishment of a centre for the development of a high-performance program to develop rowers for international competition. Noosa Main Beach is an ideal location for Coastal Rowing because it is north facing and is protected from the prevailing south-easterly winds, thereby providing excellent swells to test the skills of the rowers. In my role as honorary director of the Centre of Olympic and Paralympic Studies at the University of Queensland, it seems Noosa is well-placed to host the Coastal Rowing and Beach Sprint events at the 2032 Brisbane Olympics Games. Events commence on Thursday and Friday at 10am and 8am on Saturday and Sunday.

Local knowledge makes a difference in shark safety

NEW STOCK IN STORE

In other words, based on local knowledge of their own waters and a basic grounding in the science of shark behaviour, individuals conduct their own risk assessment and then make a cost/benefit decision on whether to surf.“This underlines the importance of locally-packaged risk messaging, but the problem is exposing tourists to that message. Not that they wouldn’t be receptive, but getting it through to them when they’ve come for a short break is difficult,” Dr Chin said. Balancing shark safety messaging with positive tourism messages will always be a challenge, but based on five-year figures of sharks caught in drumlines and nets to 2020 made available at the SharkSmart workshop, people need to be informed rather than fearful. A total of 139 sharks were caught in drumlines and net, including 50 tiger sharks and 20 bull whalers.

is highly likely very soon because Coastal Rowing will be an event at the 2026 Youth Olympic Games in Dakar in Senegal.World Rowing President, Jean-Christophe Rolland, has written to Rowing Australia stating: ‘’the beach sprints format is at the heart of our Olympic strategy to have coastal rowing included as a new discipline on the Olympic program for LA 2028 and Brisbane 2032.”

From page 1 For example, science and local knowledge agree that mistaken identity is a frequent cause of shark incidents, the movement of a seal in the water and a surfer on a board being one case of similarity. On the other hand, feeding is an uncom mon cause of shark attack, backed up by the small numbers of shark fatalities caused by being eaten as opposed to dying of blood loss. Baitfish and feeding activity rate high as risk factors in both the science and local knowledge, while the further offshore you are, it is agreed the higher the risk simply because help is further away. But the jury is still out on the advisability of staying out of the surf pre-dawn and at dusk.“The science on this is pretty variable,” Dr Chin“Somesaid.sharks hunt by day, some by night, often the same species in different places will be different in that regard. So we look at all of these things from a scientific and a local perspective and when both agree, then we know that the conclusion must be taken very seriously.”Other issues that Dr Chin and the SharkSmart program are examining include the traumatisation of coastal communi ties affected by frequent shark attacks, and the polarisation caused by people seeking solutions to attacks. “The impacts can be severe, and not just on family and friends of victims. It can have a major impact on tourism and the local economy, which is often when you get these polarising views on how to deal with it. “We believe the best way to deal with the trauma is to better understand the behaviour and ecology of these animals so that know more about their intentions, and can communicate safety messages accordingly.

Noosa Council Mayor Clare Stewart said moving traffic onto the roundabout made room for the rest of works to be completed. “Work will now focus on the northern side of Cooroy-Noosa Road and converting the old section of Beckmans Road into a service road access for nearby residents,“ Cr Stewart said. “After that it’s the finishing touches, with landscaping, commissioning road lighting, line marking and signs. “I am looking forward to seeing this project finished, as I’m sure the community is too, and we thank everyone for their patience while this important project is completed.”

Sandy Bolton was thrilled that the first stage was nearing completion “As everyone is aware through the years of advocacy, this intersection was a well-documented accident hotspot,” Ms Bolton said. “To drive on the new roundabout this week was fabulous, and I congratulate Noosa Council in managing the build, and the Queensland Government, Minister Bailey and Department of Transport and Main Roads for the funding and support.

Olive was a true treasure

The long-awaited, new roundabout at the Cooroy-Noosa and Beckmans roads intersection has opened to one lane of traffic. Transport and Main Roads Minister Mark Bailey said the exciting milestone was an important step to transforming one of the region’s busiest local roads, as the final stages of construction on Stage 1 of the Tewantin Bypass“Thestarted.newroundabout has slowly taken shape next to the existing intersection as the project team managed challenging conditions,” Mr Bailey said. “The $9.81 million project has been funded by the Palaszczuk Government as part of the successful road stimulus package, so I’m pleased to see traffic now on the roundabout. “When complete, the full two lanes will be open to traffic. “Not only is this project improving safety and efficiency on the road, it will also help to get Queenslanders home safer and sooner by reducing congestion. “The on-road bike lanes and off-road pathways will also open when the project is finished, which is great news for local walkers andNoosacyclists.”MP

Women’s Auxiliary life member, life subscriber to the RSL Sub Branch and well known community figure, Olive Joyce Donaldson, died on Tuesday 2 August.

The Noosa community has paid tribute to Tewantin treasure Olive Joyce Donaldson, who died on Tuesday 2 August at the age of 94. Olive was a well-loved community figure, known for her roles as a Women’s Auxiliary life member, life subscriber to the Tewantin Noosa RSL sub branch, and former Noosa Councillor. Olive was the daughter of William J Ross, one of the founders and a long term president of the RSL Sub Branch. She was a patron of the Women’s Auxiliary, having been involved with the organisation for more than 40 years. Olive enlisted in the RAAF for six months in 1951 and was also a Councillor at Noosa Council for many years. Olive’s first cousin, Trevor Clarey gave the eulogy at her funeral on Thursday 11 August at Drysdale Funeral Home, followed by her wake at the Diggers’ Bar. “What a legend,“ Trevor said. “What a Tewantin treasure she is. To describe Olive’s life, one has to be standing here in a coat of many colours. “Many of us gathered would have been taught swimming by Olive… Many gathered today would have been taught dancing and ballet in the old Tewantin RSL Hall. “Olive was a service lady, staunch monarchist and war widow. It is fair to say the magnificent Tewantin RSL Club of today would not exist but for Olive’s generosity.” Long-time Noosa resident Dean Harlow said Olive was a very close and dear friend. “I had known her since I was about five years old,“ Dean said. “I used to live beside her when she was in Ross’s Butcher Shop in Tewantin. It’s only in later years that I’ve become extremely close to her.“Gary Roper said Olive was a woman much ahead of her time. “She was a go-getter,“ Gary said. “When I first met her she was delivering meat out of the back of a utility. My family lived out at Sunshine Beach so they would home deliver meat to us. She was a smashing sort. When you were a young boy, you would take notice of these things and she was a very attractive and resourceful woman.“ He said Olive was a woman of the world. “She knew all about what was going on in the world and she had an opinion,“ Gary said. thoughtthanarea,coupleShe“Nomatterwhatyousay,itwon’tbeenough.wassovastthatyoucan’twrapitupinaofwords.InallmytimeintheNoosathere’snofemalethathasdonemoreOlive.Shewaslikealivingicon.Ialwaysshewasgoingtooutlivemeactually.“Shewentto94yearsandwasstillintelli-gentintheend.Ithinkshe’llgetthroughthepearlygatesnoworries.“GarysaidOliveshouldbeappreciatedforhercontributionstothearea.“ThereshouldbeastatueputupinthetownsomewhererecognisinghercontributiontoNoosa,“hesaid.

Vietnam vet remembers

A Noosa veteran has recalled his chilling experience at war while paying respect to his mates who didn’t make it home forVietnamVeterans’ Day.Australians who served in the Vietnam War, including Tewantin Noosa Sub Branch’s Dean Harlow, have been honoured at ceremonies across Wide Bay on Thursday 18 August. Almost 60,000 Australians served in Vietnam, with 521 losing their lives in the war and some 3000 wounded. Noosa resident Dean Harlow spent 10 months in Vietnam from July 1969 to 7 May 1970, and recalled it as “quite a harrowing experience at times“. “I wasn’t in the regular army, I was conscripted into National Service,“ he said. “I was posted to an infantry battalion which was 6RAR and that’s where I spent my whole time in the country. “Like all the other Vietnam veterans, we were involved in a lot of skirmishes and contacts with the enemy. “Lives were lost and good mates went before our own eyes, which was a chilling experience, but we learnt a lot from that. “We learnt that life can be very short and you have to make the extreme most of it. “You go into it as a lad, I was only 20 years old, and you come out as a man after the experience.“Other fellows might have different tales to tell regarding the effect it had on them, but that was how I felt about it all. “The disappointing part was when we came home, all the mates you made were spread far and wide over the country, and unless they were close by, you lost contact. “Another one of the things that I’ll never forget is our involvement with the Vietnam War was to no end. When the Australians and Americans pulled out, it was just back to where it allMrstarted.“Harlow said Vietnam Veterans’ Day was a day of reflection for him. “It’s a day to remember the experiences, reflect upon memories, and give thanks to those who served,“ he said. “It’s the day where I stop and think of the close mates that I went through training with, and I came home, but they didn’t. I think of them on that day.“ Federal Wide Bay MP Llew O’Brien said the Vietnam War was the longest conflict in which Australians were involved in the 20th century. The first Australians arrived in South Vietnam in 1962 as Australian Army training team Vietnam members, leaving a decade later. “Vietnam \veterans are an important part of the ex-service community here in Wide Bay,“ he said. “We thank them for their service and courage and honour their bravery.” Department of Veterans Affairs data tells us 621 service pensioners, who likely have been in danger from hostile enemy forces, live in our Wide Bay communities with an average age of 75.62 years. “These veterans have had incredible experiences and have compelling recollections about their service and I encourage all Australians to engage with those who served in Vietnam in what were overwhelmingly challenging circumstances, and learn about our nation’s war history,“ Mr O’Brien said. Tewantin Noosa Sub Branch veteran Dean Harlow spent 10 months in Vietnam serving in the infantry battalion 6RAR.

Deborah Campbell from Back on Track Counselling & Psychotherapy said she would be discussing new research and therapy methods.“I’vebeen doing this work for over 30 years and the world of neuroscience is changing,“ Deborah said. “We know so much more about the neuroplasticity of the brain and it’s very exciting. “You’re never too old and it’s never too late to look at improving not just your wellbeing but your lifestyle as a whole. “I’m going to be sharing with the audience, when is a good time to reach out, ways of connecting with different therapists and other sources of support. “I want the participants on the day to be able to seek out and find the best matches for them in terms of improving their mental and overall wellbeing.“

The thought came back to me the other night when, following a glowing introduction, an old man with a shock of white hair, dressed in jeans and sandals, shuffled to the microphone at the front of the room and seemed to struggle with its operation. I use the term “old man” with the same sense of reverence used by Noel Pearson when he referred to Gough Whitlam, with the highest level of love and respect, as “this old man” in his beautiful eulogy. Being but a few years behind him, I don’t get to call Michael Leunig old with anything other than reverence. But in a way, the great cartoonist, poet and philosopher has always seen the world through the prism of a wisdom way beyond his years, and often completely beyond our comprehension. Except that it all made perfect sense, the duck, the moon, Mr Curly and Vasco Pyjama, the whole damn circus. It was the universe drawn small. As Barry Humphries wrote in 1975: “Leunig’s subjects are as ambitious as his technique is simple. World cataclysm, The Flood, loneliness, cruelty, lust and greed. Through these runs the vein of his compassion and humanity - his humour - illuminating many a darkling theme.” Or as the artist himself put it in 1992: “A cartoonist will create a standard figure - the Everyman, Everyperson image that becomes their messenger, their angel … In my case I create this character gradually over the years, this poor little wretched fool with big wide eyes, a bit of an innocent. He’s a bit genderless, a bit ageless — not quite human, more humanoid. A bit like a monkey or a foetus. But it’s a life spirit, you see, that people can trust. There’s no possible threat with this character. It can propose the most ridiculous things, or soft, touching little innocent things or it can be bawdy … People know it, know it can say anything and they always forgive it.”

I have great memories of travelling through Queensland with a rucksack on my back. “There was a family connection too, because my uncle was sent as a young man to Maroochydore to do his jungle warfare training before going off to New Guinea.

Leunig gently rocks boat

Although he never moves from the general to the specific, Leunig seems to be referring to last year’s “cancellation” from The Age and Sydney Morning Herald over his “Tank Man” cartoon which they declined to publish. In it he juxtaposes the famous 1989 photo of the lone man defying the tanks on Tiananmen Square with a cartoon of a lone protestor in front of a loaded syringe. I don’t know if it was anti-vaxxer sentiment driving the cartoon or a more philosophical objection to mandates, but perhaps the bigger question is why ban it? It was by no means my favourite Leunig but it didn’t offend me as much as the racist undertones of some of the late, great Bill Leak’s work, which we were all given the opportunity to see andInjudge.Peregian Beach last Friday, Leunig softens the mood by placing himself in the context of history.“[When I started] it was the ‘60s and people were into rocking the boat. Now I think it’s rocking too violently, and I just try to steady it.”

In a moment he will delight us with his skill at “making marks” on paper, but first he offers a poem from his canon: Artist leave the world of art, Pack your goodies on a cart, Duck out through some tiny hole, Slip away and save your soul. Leave no footprints, don’t look back, Take the dark and dirty track. Cross the border, cross your heart: Freedom from the world of art. I love that. The morning after, still pondering other parts of Leunig’s “muddle”, I pick up the Saturday Sydney Morning Herald, as is my habit, and go straight to the back page of the Spectrum section to see if the old man still has it. I find a beautifully-drawn cartoon of the prime minister kissing a baby, then dropping it and running after being informed that it had been named after Julian Assange. Cruel, coarse, caustic, hilarious – I laughed like a Yes,drain.Leunig still has it, in spades. Leunig talks and makes marks at the same time. The work unfolds. Work in progress.

So I feel an affinity with thisIt’sarea.”typical of Leunig’s body of work over more than half a century that he uses a tiny splinter of childhood memory to conjure an image that fascinates but leaves you a little puzzled as to its true meaning. Over the long ramble that he later refers to as “my muddled talk”, he does this often, leaving a partly-formed idea suspended above us, just out of reach. Born in East Melbourne in June 1945, he was the son of a slaughterman, the second of fiveHischildren.website bio contends he “was educated at Footscray North Primary School and Maribyrnong High School, plus at various factory gates, street corners, kitchen tables, paddocks, rubbish tips, quarries, loopholes, puddles and abattoirs in Melbourne’s industrial western suburbs”, finding creative inspiration from “Enid Blyton, Arthur Mee, Phantom comics, The Book of Common Prayer, J.D. Salinger, Spike Milligan, Bruce Petty, Martin Sharp, Private Eye magazine and The Beatles”. Following his dad into the meatworks straight from school, Leunig is politicised by receiving his military conscription papers in 1965.We’re not sure how he dodged that bullet, but he finds fame – and later adulation – as a political cartoonist on the game-changing Nation Review at the start of the ‘70s. As a casual contributor to the Review who never missed an issue, I was amused, fascinated and puzzled by Leunig’s cartoons, never having seen anything quite like them. I remain, more or less, in this state. The list of Michael Leunig’s awards and achievements is very, very long, but since the cartoonist says he’s forgotten most of them because they are meaningless, let’s just mention that the National Trust declared him an “Australian living treasure” in 1999, which seems appropriate.“Iwanted to talk about the role of the artist in difficult times,” he said. “Actually, life is a difficult time. It’s not easy. As well as the honorary doctorates and so on, I’ve also been cancelled quite considerably. “It’s a big thing to have spent your whole working life offering things to your culture in a quite experimental way, but I think I’ve done it in good faith, made a few mistakes, offended a few people, not deliberately. That’s the nature of political cartooning, but you hurt people without intending to, and so you have to become more thoughtful about your own ideas.”

From page 1 Sophia, who had to fight a 60kg girl in the open teams division at the nationals, added, “The bigger girls are a bit slower, so it’s not too bad. You just have to watch your head. But I’ve never had a black eye or broken a bone.” Although it wasn’t her initial choice – she just tagged along with twin brother Seb and his mates - Sophia began her martial arts training at the age of six and started training seriously in Shotokan Karate in 2017 with classes at her school, St Andrews Anglican College, conducted by Bryan Dukas’s Karate Noosa. This led to her training at the Noosa dojo, and her passion developed from there.

Readers of Ron Lane’s sports columns in NoosaToday will be familiar with the profound influence that South African sensei Bryan Dukas has had on the Noosa karate community since his arrival six years ago, and Sophia is the perfect example. He said, “The big change came when she started training here in the dojo with the bulk of our students. That was a real turning point, and as she’s matured she’s taken it more seriously. “I was expecting big things from her at the nationals, to be honest. “We were hoping for a semi-final finish but when she got into the finals and beat the current Australian champion it was incredible. She’s extremely dedicated, never complains about long training sessions. “As a coach, I value the fact that she never questions what I’m teaching her, she trusts the process. In the coming couple of years I think she’ll be a fixture on the Australian team.” But the speedy pocket rocket is by no means a one-trick pony. “I have other sports too,” she said. “I surf and I’m good at running but I choose to do“I’mkarate.aperfectionist and karate is such a hard sport to learn that it challenges me all the time. Everything is really hard. “If you train every day there’s still so much you have to work on. Kumite is what I’m better at. That’s sparring for points. “Kata is harder because it’s about movements that you have to perform, like a dance. Kumite just came naturally to me. I guess in my spirit I’m a fighter.”

Having recently passed her first (of three) brown belt gradings, Sophia is hoping to achieve the coveted black belt grading next year, while also representing at the Shotokan World Championships in Tokyo in November 2023, and the Oceanic Championships and World Youth Games in 2024. Will there still be time for school? Sophia says: “Of course. It would be cool to go professional when I get older, but I want to study the science of the body when I go to university and maybe I’d become a karate instructor at the same time. I think I can combine my sporting and academic life.” I don’t doubt that for a second. As dad Norm Innis, a former chair of Surfing Australia says: “She trains four or five days a week, and if it was up to her, that would probably be seven days a week, twice a day. “But she never neglects her school work. There’s no pressure on her, she’s just doing what she loves.”

The new bridge has an unrestricted weight limit, unlike its timber predecessor, making it accessible for the first time, for much larger trucks.“Work is also underway on a third hinterland bridge in Cooroy and Council expects the Cooroy Belli Creek Road Bridge replacement to be completed in late October, pending favourable weather and construction conditions,“ Cr Stewart said. “We again thank residents for their patience whilst this bridge is replaced with a new wider two-lane concrete bridge with added guard rails to provide better safety for motorists.”

Noosa Salvation Army Corps officer Matt Gluyas said they were so grateful for the wonderful work OzHarvest did to gather and distribute food to community centres across coast.“While we may live in paradise, we recognise there is so much pain among our community,“ he said. “The increasing financial pressures have seen more and more locals finding themselves accessing food support from the Salvos. It’s only because of the incredible work that OzHarvest does that we are able to support families at their point of need. We are indeed betterMicheletogether.“added that while food rescue was its core business, equally important was community outreach and education to advocate for reducing food waste in the home and in our community.“Wearealso engaged in other key education, outreach and advocacy programs that focus on changing attitudes and behaviours around food and food waste,“ she said. “These include school and community outreach, cooking programs and workshops, training around nutrition and healthy eating. We are always looking for community members to join our team of volunteers to help us not only get food to those most in need but to help us get that key message across - that wasting food wastes everything and we are each part of the solution to reducing food waste at home and in our community.“

Angus Innes at Noosa Parks Association Friday forum.

By Margie Maccoll Barrister Angus Innes has for years combined his work in environmental law with his love of birds to curb, through legislation, the enormous toll of killing and trapping of migratory birds.Noosa is a destination point for migratory shorebirds on the East Asian-Australasian Flyway route flown annually to and from their breeding grounds above the Arctic Circle in Alaska and Siberia. In his talk at the last Noosa Parks Association Friday forum, Mr Innes spoke briefly about the killing and trapping of birds on that flyway, particularly in China and Indonesia, for food and the keeping of songbirds in cages. But his emphasis was on the carnage experienced annually on the East African-Eurasian Flyway with many of the 37 species of birds in the migration not only contending with natural predators and weather events but meeting their fate at the hands of humans in southern Mediterranean and northern African areas.

Hope for migratory birds

Migratory birds.

Mr Innes said when Italy passed laws making hunting of the birds more difficult, hunting holidays were established in Africa, attracting the hunters there. A variety of methods are used to capture the birds, Mr Innes said. They are shot, often just forManysport.are caught in nets, attracted to them with bird calls and decoy birds. Others are caught with snares and spring-loaded traps and some die horribly when glue is applied to treeFrombranches.2015 to 2020, Mr Innes was a member of theWildlife CrimeWorking Group of the European Network of Prosecutors for the Environment (ENPE) whose major priority was the vast illegal killing, trapping and trading of migratory birds (IKB) in the Mediterranean Region, the heart of the African-Eurasian FlyWay. Managing a team of prosecutors of environmental crime for the English and Welsh Environment Agency, he represented the working group at international conferences on the subject in Egypt, Malta and Crete and was awarded the MBE in 2011 for services “to the prevention of environmental crime”. Mr Innes said the Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals (CMS) had been working with countries through a UN treaty to address legislation, enforcement, publicity and education in an attempt to promote action at all levels. “The biggest challenge is needed at a social level,“ he “Theresaid.iscarnage but there is hope. There has been improvement. There are enforcement officers. Broadly speaking there’s an increasing environmental awareness.“

He said a document, called The Killing, that was compiled from research and statistics, to provide scientific validation to the issue, estimated conservative reports of 25 million birds killed each year with the countries contributing predominantly to the deaths being Italy, Malta, Cyprus and Egypt. Twenty million of those were songbirds, small birds, he said. To paint a picture of the situation, you have to look at the motives and methods and cultural traditions behind the killing, he said. “Hunting is ingrained in people. It’s hard for people in the country to detach themselves from“Ifit.the majority of people think nothing is wrong, it’s difficult to enforce legislation against it.“ In some countries including Cyprus and parts of France, dishes made from species of small birds are highly prized and fetch high prices in restaurants. In other countries, killing raptors is considered a rite of passage for a male and, in others, the keeping of songbirds in cages is common practice.

Mr Innes said concerns were raised by Birdlife International in the 20th century in response to environmentalists taking direct action through protests and agitation. The issue was taken up by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) and legislation was created and enforced to varying degrees in various countries.

The Noosa building company has been on the Sunshine Coast since 2002 and is owned and operated by the man himself, Chris Smith. His work attracts both local, interstate and overseas clientele, seeking holiday properties and permanent residences. During the recent Master Builders Awards held at the Novotel Sunshine Coast Resort, Chris collected the coveted BUSSQ Building Super President’s Award for their Tinbeerwah project, Australis, as well as the Langs Building Supplies trophy for Best Residential Bathroom, and Best Residential Pool for Kareela in Little Cove. “I feel incredibly honoured to win the President’s Award for quality craftsmanship, and I can show how talented the carpenters are that I have working for me,“ Chris said. “I’d also like to thank all the tradesmen that contributed to the building of this house and to the architect David Teeland from Sealand Architects for entrusting me to bring his vision to reality.“Thewinning project, Australis, is arranged in a series of interconnected pavilions that follow the natural topography, connecting the home to the beautiful native forest and surrounding landscape. The family home boasts big, sliding, glass doors and windows that open onto the greenery.The builders have used spotted gum wood on all cladding, decks, and exposed beams and flooring, for its bushfire resistant characteristics.A timber theme is carried throughout with blackbutt feature ceilings and solid oak joinery aligned with polished concrete floors. “Exceptional quality and attention to detail,“ the judges’ boasted. “This incredible home exudes rustic charm and is a credit to the team of exceptional trades that helped in bringing this vision to life.” Chris joined the building trade as an apprentice when he was 15 years old and has never looked back, gaining invaluable knowledge and experience in the last 30 years.

Capturing waterfront views with an outdoor living feel, the Modern Thai House epitomises the Sunshine Coast lifestyle in a modern three-level home with timber highlights. “We would particularly like to thank our local tradesmen and suppliers who worked to such a high standard on the project,“ Sally said.“Chris Clout Design did an amazing job of designing the home.

They are the backbone of our company!“Andof course the wonderful owners who placed so much trust in Braeden to build the home during a very trying time of Covid when they were not able to visit the site regularly.“ Mick said the judging of the awards is based on quality, technical difficulty and value for money.“These are things that we always aim to deliver,” he said. “I enjoy building and enjoy the challenge of building these homes. Every job we do is different and has its own unique challenges and designs to “Workingtackle.closely, openly and honestly from an early stage with the design team and the clients is the best way to get a successful result.” He holds a reputation as a builder of the highest quality and integrity, but Mick’s attention to detail may have gone out the window when faced with making an on-stage awards speech.“Iforgot to mention my wife Sally the other night at the awards speeches. We are a great team. Without her, l would be lost,” Mick said. “Sally and I run the business together and we only take on a certain amount of jobs so that we’re in control of everything.

It’s comforting that over 10 seasons of grim discoveries (aka dead bodies), our titular protagonist hasn’t changed much, especially in her appearance. After countless murder cases, Detective Vera Stanhope (Brenda Blethyn, pictured) could be forgiven for being haunted by the horrors of her small, windswept town, turning up to work in track pants and gumboots. Instead, her olive-green trench coat and bucket hat live on. It’s one of the ways the charming series stays true to Ann Cleeves’ novels. In the season’s penultimate instalment, Vera investigates when the body of a medic, Dr Lucy Yo (Joyce Veheary), is found in the back of a burnt-out car. 9-1-1: lone star Seven, Monday, 9pm There’s nothing like a spot of therapy to really get to the nitty-gritty of a character. From the creators of AmericanHorrorStoryand Glee this fast-paced procedural serves up drama from a Texan fire, police and ambulance department, but lately an emotional blaze has been smoking inside firefighter Owen (Rob Lowe, pictured). This week, the troubled veteran of emergency situations finally opens up about his childhood, uncovering a hidden fear that is tested when the 126 gets a call involving a clown at a young boy’s birthday party. Grace (Sierra McClain) reaches out to a co-worker after a devastating emergency call.

Vera ABC TV, Sunday, 8.30pm

World’s Most scenic railWay Journeys SBS, Saturday, 7.35pm Who would have thought that a humble yet beautiful doco series celebrating spectacular train journeys around the globe could be must-watch TV in 2022? Besides the fact that most of the world has been cooped up at home for years, there’s something meditative about drinking in the scenery from a train from destinations dotted across the world map. Tonight, a vintage luxury train, the NorthernBelle, chugs from Chester to Cardiff featuring the spectacular Cefn Viaduct, a choir, a castle and old steam engines. It’s wonderfully cathartic.

A lot of water has passed under the bridge since artist Pam Walpole settled in the Sunshine Coast 20 years ago. All manner of group and solo exhibitions later, Pam’s commitment to her art is still alive and thriving, particularly when a huge space with soaring, unadulterated walls beckoned. Pam’s latest paintings have been inspired by the excessive amount of rainfall this past year. It started with a trickle was the beginning of a large body of drawings and canvases depicting the first trickle from underground springs seeping from Noosa National Park to the surface, to raging torrents of rivers bursting their banks and gouging new channels. We have all seen the changing patterns in the sand where the force of the water at inlets like Seaview Creek has eroded banks and changed course to reshape new sandbanks, and other beaches with exposed rocks once covered by metres of sand. Many of the works are portrayed from the air looking down upon outback areas and across vast spaces with spreading floodwaters. Others are small vignettes of ponds and creeks. Contemporary, bold and minimal in style, it is an exhibition and a space worth visiting for an artist who likes to paint large yet there are smaller intimate spaces for small works. Ca Gallery owners Joe and Erin’s ethos is for the contemporary art lover to view challenging works, and they are happy to take them through the stories behind the art of the artists they represent. Pam’s exhibition will run from 22 August to 12 September at ca Gallery, 5/43 Access Crescent, Coolum Beach with an official opening by Dr John Waldron on Saturday 27 August 4-6pm. All invited.

Alan Fox Rogers’ first novel, Wanderer, reflects these tumultuous times vicariously through the eyes of his hero Max, an affable and even more naïve boy-man who arrives with his family as his parents’ sole offspring in the still-country town of Brisbane, fresh from a middle-class English upbringing with his senior school years still ahead of him. Max’s journey lives up to his surname as he firstly finds his feet in Queensland’s thencorrupt capital during the infamous Joh era, latterly escaping the clutches of the equally corrupt local cops and marking out a pathway of discovery across the state and into the Territory and Top End. His growing capability with a camera germinates a budding career, while he meets and shares experiences with a diversity of characters on his part- hitchhiking and much-walking journey, from long-distance truckies to environmentalists to First Australians imparting their ancient wisdoms. Max’s sense of being an outsider ensures a non-judgmental openness to all his experiences – perhaps reflective of the author’s own youth. The narrative lulls the reader into a steady sense of Boys’ Own adventure punctuated with dark humour - until suddenly tragedy strikes in the most unexpected ways and moments.The sense of instant camaraderie on the road as Max encounters these characters is charming - but is it realistic today? Perhaps. Or is it nostalgia for the seemingly simpler, more innocent times of 50 years ago? Wanderer is an easy page-turner, a classic Australian yarn, that shows an understanding and an appreciation of the history, splendour and complexity of this vast land. It should be required reading for any city slicker choosing to venture out there. Fox Rogers is a well-known local figure, most recently employed as director of community services for Noosa Council.

The decade of the 1970s was a time when Australia discarded some of the last vestiges of its own cultural naivety. The coming of progressive government through Gough Whitlam, oil shocks, the dismissal, Vietnam, and a growing concern for the nation’s huge but fragile environment were just some of the hallmarks of that decade.

Silver - how to spot fakes

The ADFAS year starts in March and ends in October.“Itisan extraordinary program. Our eight speakers are global professionals in their particular fields and, until the pandemic, they came from UK and American universities, significant art galleries and libraries. “We have been fortunate in having fabulous Australian speakers this year and last and we are looking forward to welcoming overseas experts again next year.” As well as promoting enjoyment of the arts, ADFAS members financially assist young local artists through monthly raffle proceeds. One of them is 17-year-old Alfie Shacklock, a former dance student of the Dance Centre Peregian Springs who is now in his second year at the Royal Ballet School in London. Another ballet dancer is 12-year-old Yamina Yehoshua, a current student at the Dance Centre. She has been accepted into Level 4 of the Queensland Ballet extension programme, and the third to receive a grant is percussionist Quinn Ramsey (19) who has completed his first year at the Queensland Conservatorium of Music.Juliasaid the group also intended supporting Sunshine Butterflies at the end of the year with a grant for art equipment for the young people with disabilities. “It is amazing what the Butterflies do. We have been out to a couple of their workshops. It is a joy to see.” ADFAS Noosa venue, St Mary’s Church, 17 William Street, Tewantin, 3.45pm for 4pm start followed by drinks and canapes. Visitors are welcome for a $25 fee. Bookings to membershipnoosaadfas@gmail.com ADFAS vice-chairman Julia Gamble.

By Jim Fagan British-born international expert and valuer on antique silver, Jolyon Warwick James, has appeared on the BBC’s Antiques Roadshow and been an advisor to museums, auction houses and the Australian Government. He now lives in Sydney and, on Saturday 20 August, he will be at ADFAS Noosa’s meeting to talk about why people fake silver and what forms of faking there are with illustrations of examples of well-known cases. Jolyon will speak on how hallmarking prevents fakes and for the members of ADFAS (Australian Decorative and Fine Arts Society, Noosa) it will be yet another informative and entertaining talk. Julia Gamble, is vice chairman and she told Noosa Today that she started attending ADFAS lectures more than 30 years ago in Brisbane and Melbourne before coming to Noosa. “I loved going. I would just sit there absorbed in the talks on art, silver, photography, famous moments in history and related fine arts topics. “ She said ADFAS was a not- for- profit organisation run entirely by volunteers. There are 36 societies in Australia and Noosa was incorporated in 2010, although for two years before that it had been affiliated to ADFAS Sunshine Coast at Buderim. “I was a member but it was difficult to attend regularly as it was an evening meeting and I didn’t fancy the drive home at night. “I resigned and I was approached to start our own society here. It has just blossomed from there.We have 115 members and we have room for a few more. Anyone is welcome. You don’t have to be an expert, few of us are.”

LETTERS NOOSATODAY.COM.AU More tree deaths I was reading in your paper about the tree deaths at Settlers Cove and I was wondering if your team are aware of the recent deaths of two large gum trees on the riverfront at Hilton Esplanade?Council has sent teams to cut down the dead trees so must be aware of the issue. These trees were very old and significant habitat trees right on the bank of the river. What is even more worrying is that surrounding trees are also looking like they are on their way out too. I feel this would be an issue of concern for all shire residents and worthy of investigation by your paper. Hopefully you agree, and can get to the bottom of what is killing these magnificent trees and what Council proposes to do to prevent further deaths and rectify this great loss.

It has been a very big couple of weeks for the region’s iconic tourism attraction, the Mary ValleyFirstly,Rattler.the heritage steam train service was included in the Best of Queensland Experiences Program for 2022, a program that “identifies and recognises experiences that best bring the Queensland story to life and consistently deliver an exceptional customer experience”. The program was developed by Tourism & Events Queensland in partnership with the state’s Regional Tourism Organisations, the Queensland Tourism Industry Council and the Department of Tourism, Innovation and Sport. The timing for the Rattler couldn’t have been better as it gained a starring role in the new season of UK Channel 5’s massively popular World’s Most Scenic Railway Journeys. The Rattler received a high profile in the Bill Nighy-narrated documentary that followed a rail journey along the Queensland coast. TheTV crew spent over two days filming the historic Rattler and the surrounding Gympie and MaryValley region, including the village of Amamoor. The episode featured an interview with Rattler steam train driver, Adrian Hurley, who also assists the organisation with training, assessments and coaching.

I have just read the practical suggestion of rate relief to release STAs to long term rental, but a lot of these properties are not budget, but more top end, not perfectly suited to the demand. Two weeks ago we advertised a basic two-bed one bathroom unit at $550 per week – 41 enquiries – this is the price level where the demand and need really is, not gourmet properties.Ifeel compelled to recycle a suggestion I made to a previous mayor. The problem is, it is State government, not local councils, who bear the responsibility to provide social housing. The old TAFE site in Tewantin is just over 11 hectares of usable land, lying unused. Still owned by the State Government, the sale to Noosa fell over several years ago. Access to a main road, bus services – in my mind, a very goodWhenoption.Iput the suggestion forward I was told the land was subject to an Aboriginal land claim. I personally was subject to a land claim in the Gold Coast Hinterland, arbitrary and not realistic, but I settled it with a donation of part of the land. It is not for me to comment on the validity of this claim, but settle the claim and move on. As an estate agency we deal with the issue of service workers being compelled to live in resorts constantly. I currently have two properties rented to business principals themselves to house their workers so they can maintain control over the problem of transient workers who are not looking as attractive applicants for the properties themselves. David NoosaGarwood, Turning to Quixote To enhance their scientific/ climate credentials, have the Federal LNP pollies taken Don Quixote’s (1612) musings about wind turbines as policy? “…… I intend to do battle with them and slay them……and the removal of so foul a brood off the face of the earth is a service God will bless”. Just asking. Margaret Wilkie, Peregian Beach Trust and beliefs CorrespondentWarrenWells (NT 12/08) raised an excellent question in his letter. How do we know what to believe? Most of us base our beliefs on the opinions of people who we think are experts, or at least knowledgeable, because very few of us are experts in the things that really matter, like economics, ecology, physics, law or climate change. It all boils down to who you are prepared to trust. Mr Wells holds that thinking about and challenging experts is a noble act.To that, I say, hogwash (just to be polite). Science, for example, by its very nature, subjects itself to intense scrutiny, not from average citizens, but from other experts in their fields. You cannot critically think about a subject in any meaningful way if you don’t already have a good grasp of the procedures and knowledge base and individual experience in that field. That’s why we should trust experts. Being an expert in a field requires years of study, consideration, experience, challenges, failures and enlightenment. I am sure Mr Wells is an expert in something about which he would be offended and condescending if I challengedChoosinghim.who to believe could depend on your ideology or who you last spoke to but it is much saner to choose what to believe based on a reading of many experts in that field to see what they think and what critical things they have to say about each other’s work. It is very unwise to trust newspaper articles or popular press coverage of the latest scientific contradictions. It is very rare that a single paper contradicting a widely held view will actually change things. That is because science depends on many concurring opinions, repetition of experiments and other independent conclusions.Theonemain attribute of science is that it has been dependable in making predictions. We were wise to stop producing DDT and CFCs and to stop mining asbestos and putting lead into paint and petrol, based on scientific advice.The predictions by climate scientists 50 years ago and since are coming true, and still, untrained and uneducated people want to think about it and challenge those predictions. That is not only ridiculous but potentially life threatening. Steve CooroyHall, Gary Fry was visiting Noosa from Ballarat, Victoria, when he captured this image of the river.

The Mary Valley Rattler joins many of the world’s most famous rail journeys and was selected because of its rich history, and the spectacular landscape the train traverses. The program synopsis says: “It’s a chance to stop off and travel back in time. It was gold that brought the railways to Gympie, and the Mary Valley Rattler offers a chance to experience Queensland as it was in the pioneering days, as we join a train pulled by a 1920’s C17 loco, No967, one of 182 built in Queensland. It will pull us high into the Amamoor National Park where we’ll spend some time with one of Australia’s strangest beasts: the Duck Billed Platypus - a mammal that lays eggs”. Episodes of the World’s Most Scenic Railway Journeys attract over 1.7 million viewers in the UK alone, and the show will be broadcast throughout the world later in the year. SBS has broadcast previous series of the program in Australia. Mary Valley Rattler general manager Linda Barry said the recognition of the Rattler in the Best of Queensland Experiences Program and then on prime-time TV in the UK was important for promoting the attraction and the region to consumers and the travel industry both in Australia and internationally. “We are fortunate that by being a volunteerbased organisation there is massive passion in the way we deliver our tourism experience, and that was reflected in the World’s Most Scenic Railway Journeys episode,” she said. “We don’t take the Best of Queensland accreditation for granted. We are continually reviewing and upgrading our services to meet changing consumer demands, and this is precisely what the Best of Queensland Experiences Program assesses. “After the impact of floods and pandemic, the recognition and profile we have received over the past few weeks will play an important role in rebuilding the Mary Valley Rattler’s business as well as providing exposure for the Gympie region’s tourism attractions.” For more information, visit maryvalleyrattler.com.au/ Filming of the Rattler for World’s Most Scenic Railway Journeys show.

NICA president Dr Jan Green said it was wonderful to be involved in the renewal of this key initiative once again. “NICA was involved in the design and installation of the first network of fishing line bins in Noosa Shire in 2004 but the distinct PVC bins have long since passed their usedby date.“Inrecent years we have observed a marked increase in injuries to wildlife from discarded fishing line along the Noosa River. It has been great to work in partnership with OzFish’s new Noosa chapter to develop and install a new purpose-built and fully recycled network to address this key issue”. “Given the increase in recreational fishing along the Noosa River its important we provide the community with a sustainable means to discard fishing line and tackle. This network addresses that need and we look forward to seeing how the community responds.”BenBroadfoot, President of OzFish Noosa Chapter and a keen recreational angler is proud of their achievement and of the collaboration between OzFish, NICA and Noosa Council.“Ithink every recreation fisher knows the importance of keeping waterways clean and free of “Withwaste.this program we highlight what we as anglers can do to help keep our fishing waste not only out of the waterway but more importantly away from any harm it can do to our precious wildlife.” “To be able to refresh the Noosa River fish inglinerecoverybinswiththisprojectandalso

On The Soapbox Noosa MP Sandy Bolton Estimates are for everyone

Old fishing line is better in the bin than in wildlife

So why is the recent Budget Estimates process so important, and why should we all be interested?It’sall about ramifications – to everyone –on how your funds are spent. For those who are unfamiliar with what may seem a dry subject, a quick overview. The operations of Parliament are a key part of how our Queensland democracy works, and its committees are an avenue to provide scrutiny and accountability of government, especially as Queensland does not have an Upper House, unlike other States. Committees handle inquiries, including on legislation before Parliament, and also Estimates Committee Hearings (Estimates) to scrutinise finer details within the State Budget. The current committee system comes from reforms that were undertaken in 2011. Ten years later in 2021, I was on a livestream panel with the architects of those changes, Judy Spence and Lawrence Springborg, as well Speaker Curtis Pitt , and we gave insights from our perspectives on the committee system, with the video available at governmentthetheprovethebecomingin-the-spotlight-parliamentary-committees/sandybolton.com/AsIhavesharedovertheyearssincefirstanMP,thecommitteesystemandEstimatesprocessneedtweaking,toim-itseffectiveness.SomeoftheissueswithcurrentsystemthatIhaveraisedincludelimitedtimeforadiversityofquestioning.Forexample,ina45-minutesession,non-membersreceivehalfofthat

For the list of questions as well responses of my Legal Affairs and Safety Committee, head to bit.ly/3dj10yy which also includes a link to the broadcast from that hearing. Once we have responses to our rerouted Questions on Notice, they will be added to that link. Until next month, something to contemplate. Any government at any level should have no reason to reject efforts for greater efficiency, as that adds to our sustainability. There should never be a reason to avoid transparency, as we are all grown ups and can handle the truth, even if we do not particularly like that truth.

time, after the Ministers’ opening remarks of six minutes are taken out, leaving 19 minutes. With the crossbench 17 per cent of the opposition, we receive 17 per cent of the time allocated, or just over three minutes. With the Minister allowed three minutes to answer each question, you can see how this may lead to only one question from the great diversity of the three parties and one independent that make up the crossbench. This is not a practical system at all and is why for a second year in a row I attempted to circumnavigate missing out by submitting Questions on Notice (QONs) to each Minister. Unsuccessfully, I might add. However, there are opportunities for change.TheCoaldrake Report (released in June), recommended expanding the oversight role of the committees, specifically that, “Integrity bodies independence be enhanced by involvement of parliamentary committees in setting their budgets and contributing to key appointments”. How this is done is important, hence my questions at the Legal Affairs and Safety Committee hearing regarding the role of Committees as key stakeholders in implementing the Coaldrake recommendations. Further, in response to a question on day one of Estimates, the Clerk of Parliament stated that parliamentary committees have not necessarily been discharging some of the things that were envisaged in the 2011 review, and that we have a long way to go regarding that accountability aspect and the work of committees. To think, I have only been saying this for some four-plus years? As I continue to request, the Committee of the Legislative Assembly (CLA) must review the Committee system. This should consider submissions put forward by myself and other MPs over the years, including current Opposition MPs, to address the flaws in what is ultimately our defacto Upper House. A review, plus the implementation of the Coaldrake recommendations, opens the door for greater transparency, accountability and efficiency, not only from governments and their processes, as well as us as MPs. Can I add in equity?AsIhave said previously in Parliament, we have nothing to lose and everything to gain, including by making Committee minutes public domain as a standard. As with Budget, there is always some good news to report back to you after Estimates time, as well some that do not pass the pub test in the many questions as to the whys. Whether it is funds spend on Wellcamp still sitting empty when we have an accommodations crisis, or misleading Queenslanders via those reply paid envelopes for postal vote applications being returned to a party rather than direct to the Electoral Commission of Queensland, being lawful does not make it OK and I always look to how these can be resolved. Our questions to all Ministers covered a broad range including a couple of my longstanding pushes such as for an audit of state land and Environmental Upgrade Agreements (EUA’s), which pleasingly now has added advocacy from our Council and hopefully the Local Government Association of Queensland. What is most frustrating is that these should not have taken the time they have to reach this stage (though the Minister’s response to my last QON some weeks ago gave a timeline of September for the EUA’s) and gives argument that there are some other processes that need tweaking, as efficient and timely responses save both time and taxpayer dollars. The questions I asked at my own Legal Affairs and Safety Committee live hearing included seeking clarification around funding for our coastguards after the Bluewater Review, and the ability of our emergency services ICT upgrade to connect in real time to the new early alert flood monitors that will be on our bridges. As well again, emergency domestic violence accommodations, resourcing for our hotspots, and prison transitional accommodation as examples.

The Noosa Integrated Catchment Association (NICA) and OzFish Noosa Chapter, in partnership with Noosa Council, are pleased to announce the roll-out of new, purposebuilt and fully recycled fishing line recovery bins at popular locations along the Noosa River.The network of 30 bins, easily identified by their distinct Noosa-oriented styling, will enable recreational fishermen to dispose of fishing waste, line and tackle responsibly, removing the threat of entanglement and injury to our iconic marine wildlife.

Tackle World Noosa Northern species showing up in Noosa local waters

With another week of cool temperatures and sunny days its been a case of watching the weather and timing your bar crossings for some great fishing. The swell has been present but holding around a metre. This has allowed for most offshore anglers to have a crack. North reef has been popular and for good reason. With more species than you can shake a stick at, anglers have been doing well on baits and lures. The usual run of cod, moses perch and sweetlip was overshadowed with some cracking spangled emperor and venus tusk fish. On the jig even an iron jaw job fish was caught which shows more northern species are showing up. There have also been some chunky kingfish and cobia showing up. All of this lined up with a run towards the full moon. Out wide around double island the sharks are making their presence known however the amberjack and longnose trevally continue to stretch arms. These fish are both great eating and although thought as poor table fish you may well be very surprised with the sweet flesh trevally offer. Bait anglers were doing well with pilchard, fresh strip baits of mac tuna and mullet on heavy paternoster rigs around 50lb. Lure anglers have a wide range of choices from jerk shad style soft plastics in deeper water with 2-3oz jig heads. Jigs have also been working well with the rear weighted Berkley skid jigs in 100 grams a popular choice. They come equipped with a single strong VMC hook so you need not change this. Combine this with a long length of Shimano Ocea leader and see what you can tempt. Surf fishing has seen some cracking dart to 45cm landed as well as some bream getting near 40cm’s in length. Both of these fish are exceptional fighters on lighter surf gear. Try to keep lines around 6-8 kg and a suitable rod like the Shimano Mikuro light surf. Tailor are plentiful around Bribie and are starting to push toward the coast so trips to Fraser should be planned soon. River fishing continues to see a continued run of trevally, flathead, bream, the odd chop per tailor and even jacks. With the river chang ing its course the usual holes and drop offs have seen them fill in with sand but new ones are always forming. Its always worth exploring the river around the turn of the tide as this can be a trigger for fish to feed. Using your sounder can really help you discover new spots to fish and those with live mapping can build up an accu rate map of the bottom. This not only helps you navigate, but find likely fish holding spots. Bait anglers have continued success with prawn and herring as well as mullet chunks for bream. If you are finding baits become picked off easily try switching to mullet. Lure anglers will find a huge array of options instore so be sure to ask us how the river is fishing and what colours are working best. If you are looking to get a cast net we can show you how to throw one and even spool your reel while you wait. Freshwater continues to be quiet with the cold air temps. If you are intending to fish the local dams, be sure to fish those areas that receive the most sunlight. The majority of fish are seeking out the warmth and this will boost their metabolism. Once you find the fish be sure to try small lures like 2-3inch grubs and use suspending lures in the smallest of sizes. Zerek tango shads or Jackall squirrels are great starting lures. Keep leaders light so these lures suspend for long periods of time as fish may be less aggressive and take longer to hit a lure. Don’t forget that Mary River cod are in closed season and snapper are back on the catch list as of Tuesday 16 August. Now, for all the latest information log onto fishingnoosa.com.au for up-to-date bar and fishing reports, don’t forget to drop into Tackle World Noosa, Noosa Boating and Outdoors and Northshore Bait & Tackle in Marcoola for all the right equipment, bait and advice to get you catching.

Cameron was successfully playing team ten nis and practicing at a facility which catered for both tennis and golf, when it dawned on him that he preferred to play golf than tennis. He’d played the game at Middle Ridge when he was growing up in Toowoomba and was good enough to have trimmed his handicap to five while still a teenager. So Cameron secured an apprenticeship as a professional golfer, opted to pursue a career as a teaching pro rather than a tournament player, and settled down to a life of work and play in Europe.Years later, that decision would lead Cam eron on a path that would bring him to Noosa where, last week, he became a member of Pe ter Heiniger’s team of teaching professionals at Noosa Springs. It was a dream job for Cameron who was un able to find a position in the golf industry when he returned from Germany to Toowoomba 10 years ago, even though his European qualifica tions bridged to Australia. Undaunted, he went back to university, gained a commerce degree, became an accoun tant and eventually found himself teaching le gal studies at a Toowoomba high school. His first love, though, was always golf and he was regularly in touch with Middle Ridge and City – Toowoomba’s two golf clubs – asking to be remembered if a teaching position became available.Eventually one did. “It was great to be back at Middle Ridge where I’d played as a junior,” Cameron said. Later, he also coached at City Golf Club. But he and wife Maxine, a hair stylist, were keen to tackle new challenges and were con sidering moves to either Melbourne or Noosa, when the position opened up with Heiniger Golf at Noosa Springs. “It’s really good to be here,” he said. “I’m enjoying the lifestyle and meeting the members, and looking forward to building re lationships.”Cameron said he had always loved teaching golf.“It’s about the outcomes, I guess,” he said. “There’s nothing quite like teaching the right things to a player and seeing their enjoyment when they start hitting the ball well. “Sometimes you can see really quick im provement. I also love working with kids, help ing them improve their games,” he said. Dark day for Noosa in pennants Noosa/s A grade pennant team – champions in each of the past three years – crashed out of contention for this year’s title on Sunday when they were demolished by Maroochy River 6½½ in a one-sided semi- final. The shock result came only seven days after the powerful Noosa squad had thrashed Ma roochy River 5-2 in the final round of fixtures. And in another massive upset, unbeaten Headland went down 4-3 in the other semi-fi nal, setting up an unexpected final on Sunday between Maroochy River and Mt Coolum. In what turned out to be a dark day for Noosa, the club’s B grade team went down to Cooroy 6-1, while Gympie dominated against Nambour, winning 5-2. Sunday’s finals will be played at Headland, beginning at 7am. The junior Division 1 final, where Noosa Springs defends its title against a Maroochy River team, is scheduled for 9.30am. Full details are available at sunshinecoastgolf. org Home advantage in Millbrook Challenge It’s not quite the Ryder Cup, but the annual challenge between New Zealand’s Millbrook Golf Club and Noosa Springs is an international event that has become one of the highlights of the golfing calendar of both clubs. As is the case with many great ideas, the Millbrook Challenge was conceived over a few glasses of wine shared by an Australian and a Kiwi after a round of golf. It was early in 2007 that Noosa Springs’ Da vid Meldrum and Graeme Evans, from Mill brook in Arrowtown, near Queenstown on New Zealand’s South Island, agreed to canvass the idea of an annual cross-Tasman competition between members of the two clubs. The concept spread like wildfire and, in Au gust of that year, a team from Millbrook arrived at Noosa Springs for the first Millbrook Chal lenge.Itwas played over two days – the first featur ing a mixed 4BBB stableford event and the sec ond a single stableford competition contested by men and women. The top 10 scores from each club were counted to determine the win ner.Noosa Springs won that initial encounter, themansquadstablefordeventcombinedthedaysSprings.MillbrookshelvedMillbrookKevin–untilhomethroughouttoandin2018asquadfromNoosaSpringstrekkedArrowtown,onlytobebeatenbythehosts.Thecompetitionformathascontinuedtheyears,ashasthepracticeoftheteamalwaysclaimingthetrophy.Therewasabreakincompetitionfrom20142018,whenthechairmenofthetwoclubsNoosaSprings’JeffBarrettandMillbrook’sPeterson–resurrectedtheevent.In2019,hosted,andwon,thecompetition.Covidandtravelrestrictionssawtheeventuntilthismonth,whenateamfrombroughtthetrophybacktoNoosaHappily,theyleftitherewhentheyreturned.Thelocalswerefartoostrongoverthetwoandclaimedthetrophy,largelythrougheffortsofNoosaSprings’MikeAngus,whowithwifeDanatowinthe4BBBteamonthefirstday,thentooktheindividualwith35pointsonthesecond.Soattentionnowturnstonextyear,whenafromourshoreswillheadacrosstheTastoattempttobecomethefirstteamtowinMillbrookTrophyonforeignsoil.

Cameron Orford, a promising tennis player with a powerful right-hand serve, left Australia as a young man determined to make a living on the pro circuit in Europe. He returned a decade later as a left-handed golfThepro.remarkable transformation – from ten nis, which he played right-handed, to elite golf, where he’d always been a leftie – took place in Dortmund, Germany, a city better known for its beer and its soccer team than for producing tennis or golf stars.

PETER HEINIGER, of Heiniger Golf, is Noosa Springs’ head PGA teaching professional Get a grip on slicing TAKE THE TIP PETER HEINIGER

42 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 19 August, 2022

It’s no secret that most golfers have a slice problem and a lot of the time that slice can be simply attributed to a poor grip and not necessarily the golf swing. Quite often slicers have their two hands turned on the handle too far towards the hole, which is known as a weak grip. A weak grip delivers an open clubface to the ball at impact. Golfers are sometimes mislead by the arrows or lines on their handles when placing their hands on the club. Those arrows or lines are often there for cosmetic reasons or for ease of installation.Withaslicer’s grip, at the address position, golfers will see no knuckles on the outside of the top hand and then two on the outside of the bottom hand. Ideally to influence a draw it should be the opposite, where the two hands will turn away from the hole. It may feel strange at first as the club face will feel closed at address but, trust me, it’s worth persisting.Thecorrect grip should never be underestimated as many other problems can be corrected at the same time. It’s the only contact you have with the golf club, so it’s vital that your hands connect with the club correctly.

Cooroy vets remember their history It’s nearly 20 years since Cooroy opened its second nine holes, but many of the club’s oldtimers clearly remember how the course used to beAndplayed.even if those memories may fade, the Cooroy veterans make sure the old nine-hole track is never entirely forgotten – at least for a couple of rounds a year. Three weeks ago the vets hosted the first round of the Foundation Members Old Course Challenge – a competition that began in 2017 and is decided by scores recorded on the course’s original nine holes. The second, and final, round was played last week. The original holes are one, two, three, four, five, six, 16, 17 and 18. All golfers play an 18-hole stableford com petition on the day, but separately record their scores for the nine old course holes on a second scorecard.Afterthe first round, Andrew Aves led with 23 points. But the winner, after second round scores were added, was James Henderson, who had rounds of 19 and 20 for an excellent aggre gate score of Remarkably,39. it was his second successive win in the event. And the 39 points he accumu lated over the full 18 holes on Wednesday was good enough for the C grade stableford prize. As well as preserving a bit of club nostalgia, the Old Course Challenge commemorates the efforts of foundation members Ed Otto and LionelWillett.Sadly,95-year-old Lionel couldn’t make it to the clubhouse, but was quick to pass on his best wishes to young James Henderson.

A mixed bag for the RayWhite Noosa Dolphins last Saturday with the A Grade bowing out of the finals’ race, the women gaining immediate entry to grand final and the reserve grade heading to Saturday’s elimination final. While the 33-15 loss to Caloundra spelled the end of the race for A Grade, all was not lost in the eyes of Noosa coach Matt Buckland. “Saturday’s match was a tough day out that’s for sure, but it wasn’t through lack of trying. With a penalty try, and a length of the field intercept try contributing 14 points to the Caloundra tally, the score line does not reflect how close we were to progressing,“ he said. As he reflected on the year that was, Buckland was clearly proud of his young side and their“Theycommitment.cantruly hold their heads up high and be proud of what they have achieved as such a young group, most being in their very early 20s,“ he Buckland’ssaid.views were supported by Dolphins president Jerry Lewis who could see the potential that existed. “The team across the paddock has shown they have what it takes to lead the club back to premiership glory in coming years if they can stick together. They may have finished fourth, but there was only three points between fourth and second and experience will just galvanise that talent,“ he said. The reserve grade survived their first elimination test against Caboolture, cleverly executing a very precise game plan. “The Snakes are a very big and highly competitive side so I was very happy to see the way the boys stuck to our plan. The second half was particularly impressive, taking the half time 7 all lead and finishing ahead 26-17,“ coach Mark Winder said. Players impressing on the day included Dom McGarth, Lincoln Parsons and Sam Hasler.The team takes on Wynnum this Saturday with the victors heading into the grand final clash with University. While the men continue to fight for survival, the Dolphins women earned direct entry into the August 29 grand final with a defenceled 12-0 victory over the highly fancied and previously undefeated Nambour side. While an intercept try added to the A grade defeat, such a try by Bronte Langbridge started the points tally for the women with Queensland Country rep Dillyn Blackburn adding to the try count. Coach Damien Cogill pointed to his team’s relentless defence and strong set pieces as the foundation for the victory, despite the two yellow cards reducing their numbers in the secondImpressinghalf. Cogill were the hardworking props Rhiannon Zanelli and Ashleigh Wark along with the tenacious performance by half back Pearl Fitzgerald. But it was a last ditch tackle at fullback by Aqua Meaney that bought the wet crowd alive. “Not only was it try saving but potentially match-winning,“ said Cogill as he reflected on a great team effort.

Mixed results for Dolphins

Great team work pays off on field for junior Dolphins

Under 14s by Toby Eller Noosa 36 defeated Caloundra 28 The Noosa Dolphins Under 14s had the home-ground advantage this week against Caloundra. Caloundra was the first to score back-to-back tries but Noosa was able to claw its way back into the game, scoring two quick tries soon afterwards. At the end of the first half Caloundra was up by a conversion. After a quick half-time chat from coach Roxy, the U14s came out onto the field for the second half with a different attitude to score a quick try off the kick-off, and piling on the pressure for Caloundra. There was a lot of back and forth during the second half but in the end Noosa finished on top. At the end of Round 14 we are now sitting third on the Under 14s ladder. Freddie Monahan was Domino’s Pizza Player of the Match. Under 12s by player Alex Bingham After a rough and dirty game of rugby, the Noosa Dolphins Under 12s came out on top over Matthew Flinders. The boys began strongly, making great tackles from our hardhitting players and the backs using the set plays they’ve worked on at training. The Dolphins took control pressuring the Flinders attack with a turnover leading to a try. After a few great plays, the Dolphins led at half-time, 17-0.The second half was a tough one. Flinders pushed through rucks pressuring the Dolphins. Still the Dolphins scored one more unconverted try, leading 22-0. Flinders pushed over two tries, 22-10. Both teams were fired up for the rest of the clash. Flinders scored the final try with the final score 22-17. The Dolphins U12s will finish fifth on the table out of nine teams. Domino’s Pizza Players of the Match were Chaise Coughlan and Eli Hammersley. Under 11s After another fast start, the U11s delivered in the wet conditions with an early try to Luke at home on Dolphins Oval. Not letting Sunshine Coast Grammar into the contest, the team was disciplined to maintain possession and territory to register a second try to William.While the team let in one runaway try to Grammar, the Dolphins U11s seemed to be in control of the match throughout the game. The second half brought another try to super speedy playmaker, Luke. Most improved players today Noah and Kade who ran hard all day, and Mac who straightened the attack. Big effort from all the forwards who drove hard at the breakdowns. Some great goalkicking as well. All the boys gave their all and played so well as a team, finishing the game 17-7 up.

It was not long until Ben was back in business with a great try. Ben decided it was time to add to his try tally with another great run to touch down again. Hudson had been busy all day with some big runs up the centre, leading to a hat-trick of tries to Eric. No sooner did we get the ball than Hudson decided it was his turn and after some great work from Zac, Hudson was in for another try. To cap off the day, Mason went in for a brilliant try and the final score was 8-1. Every player was worthy of the Domino’s Pizza Player of the Match, but it was decided that a well-deserving Hudson would get the honour.

Good luck to all those representing the Noosa Tigers this weekend. Go Tigers Tiger women have a week off before the finals. Tiger Reserves and Colts recorded wins last weekend.

By Julian Pitts The Rococo Noosa Tigers have guaranteed themselves a finals spot in the very strong QAFL competition after a resounding physically bruising win over modern day rivals Wilston Grange last Saturday. A massive crowd showed up to watch the much improved Tigers under legendary coach Chris Rourke go from winless and stone motherless bottom of the ladder to a finals berth and maybe even a surprise packet. Other than Redlands, the Tigers have been super competitive with every other team in the six with no better pre-finals practise than facing Labrador on the Gold Coast this Saturday fromIn1pm.aday where well known ventriliquist Darren Carr had our luncheon guests in hysterics and past players turned out in their plenty, the Tigers didn’t Ex-Bulldogdisapoint.VFLskipper Josh Wallis was a standout in the tough conditions, forever winning the ball or putting it in a great spot for his teammate going forward. He just continually racked them up the entire day and was well supported by fellow on ballers Jai Fitzpatrick, Tommy Templeton and Captain Aaron Laskey. Small forward Ethan Johnston was scintillating up forward showing all the forward craft Ginninvan-style to an adoring Noosa audience.Aaron Wilson continued his great season bagging four goals up forward while down back, Lachy Flagg again showed why he was so sought after with Riley Buntain prominent in his favoured half of the field once again. A terrific win by the Tigers with some very exciting weeks ahead.

This was indeed a very good achievement for the Regardingclub.the official designation of the tournament, the World Karate Federation, an International recognised body was in charge, and the supervision of events was under the Australian Karate Federation.

WSKF representatives at the Australian National Championships lead by Head Coach, Bryan Dukas.Noosa’s little athletes

The medal tally for Australia in the track and field events at the recent Commonwealth Games, 10 gold, 10 silver and four bronze is something in which we can take pride. These are the type of results that should give encouragement to all those who train and compete under the banner of Noosa Athletics. With a head coach such as Mick Hooper and the hard-working club officials, supported by more media attention, who knows what can be achieved by our athletics. According to coach Hooper, there are busy times ahead for our athletes. ‘’From 23 to 25 September, our senior athletes and our best school athletes, will travel to Townsville to compete in the North Queensland Championships. These championships continue to be the premier regional athletics championships in Australia. “For example, in 2021, over 700 athletes of all ages and abilities competed. Our athletes will be using this competition to try and secure an early season national qualifier for the Australian Championships to be held March 2023. “The school squad has been in training since early May and has been progressing nicely. They have now completed all the Noosa District carnivals for primary , secondary and independent schools and have 15 squad members qualified through to the Sunshine Coast regional track and field trials to be held at USC on 31 August and 1 September. “If successful at these trials, athletes will progress to the Queensland School Championships in Brisbane 11 to 16 October“. The new season for Nooses Athletics will start 16 September and Fair Play vouchers are now accepted on line. All are welcome to Come and Try Sessions to be conducted on 4 September from 11am to 1pm and again on 11 September, same time. Also, on 16 and 30 September, starting at 5pm, trials for new members only, will be held with an entrance fee of $10 per night. These trials will be held at Girraween Sports Complex, Eenie Creek Rd and Langura St. Noosa Heads. For more information, contact 0434121365.Withastrong athletic club in Noosa capped off by the annual Noosa Gift and well supported by media, this club should be starting to draw good crowds. We wish them well. And remember the Olympics are just around the corner. Karate At the recent Australian National Karate Championships held in Rockhampton, which is contested by state representative teams, eight members of our local club, Karate Noosa, were chosen to represent Queensland. Those chosen were Bianca Caddell Finn, Campbell Finn, Dempsey Finn, Sophia Innis, Flynn Noakes, Reilly Noakes, Lochlan Noakes and Dannica Starkey. It is interesting to note the strong family membership that is now taking part in the sport of karate. The results from the championships saw Karate Noosa members come home with a total of seven medals. In the women’s 45-55 yrs Kumite (sparring) Bianca Finn won bronze, Campbell Finn 11-12yrs male kumite won bronze, Sophia Innis children’s female won the silver in the Qld team kumite and gold in the female 42kg kumite. Reilly Noakes won silver in the 11-12 male children kumite 35 kg. And Dannica Starkey came home with two silver medals, in the cadets’ female open weight kumite, and the Qld team cadet Kumite. Karate Noosa’s head coach Bryan Dukas said “We were very happy with Qld teams results as the standard amongst the competitors was very high in both team and individual events. Also, it was good to see all styles represented. This is a good indication that the future of the sport in Australia is on the up.”

Rugby League On the weekend our local Pirates venture to Shark Park Caloundra was a day of mixed results. Our U18s stayed in finals contention with a close 12-10 nail biting victory over Caloundra, but the women’s team, despite a good first half against the Sharks couldn’t match the competition heavyweights in the second. In the Division 2A, our team kept their best till last which saw them hold the Sharks to a 10all draw. For a team that put in big time all season they were unlucky not to get a win. In the main game Pirates got off to a great start with early points and were looking ominous. However, an early injury and some unforced errors plus a more determined Sharks pack saw them go to the break with a 16-6 lead. Despite an uplift from Pirates in the second half, they failed to achieve the momentum to break Sharks Unfortunately,defence.their loss dispelled any chance for a finals berth for the 2022 season.

FOOTNOTE: Sometimes timing is everything. I happened to be running an errand to the Noosa Surf Museum one day last week, right around lunchtime, when I stumbled into a test run for the kitchen of Nguyen Brothers Vietnamese restaurant, which is about to open on ground floor below the surf museum in the revamped convention centre building at Noosa Lakes Resort. I plonked myself down at a table full of tradies just as Yen Nguyen directed his staff to bring out a feast. Oh my … sensational! Unfortunately, your columnist repeated the mistake of fallen comrade Trevor Pepys and gobbled all the good stuff before remembering to take a picture. But this crisp and fragrant spring roll will give you the general idea. Can’t wait for this place to open officially.

We smash longboard nats

It seems like Noosa’s Landen Smales is hellbent on smashing the record books as he continues his climb to longboarding supremacy. Landen, 15, completely demoralised the opposition last week at the Australian Surf Festival at Port Macquarie in the junior logger division, scoring two perfect 10s in the semis before cruising to an easy win, then moved into slightly more vertical mode to take out the juniorWithlongboard.twoAustralian titles already under his belt, he could be forgiven for relaxing a bit against the big guys in the open men’s logger, but there’s certainly no shame in going down to the likes of Declan Wyton and Ben Considine.The scary thing about Landen is he’s just as good on a Remindsshortboard.meofJulianWilson at that age. He could take his surfing anywhere. But enough already about the ubiquitous Smales brood. Landen’s incredible performances at North Haven Beach were just part of a massive Noosa Mal Club search and destroy mission, with trophy rooms all over town straining under the weight of new gold. Noosa World Surfing Reserve president and high-ranking WSL pro Kirra Molnar also went excellent with a near-perfect nine to take out the final of the open women’s logger in some North Haven bombs and win her first Australian title, while Wally Allan also went into the excellent range a couple of times in dominating the over 40s senior men’s logger to win his first Australian title. To complete the Noosa trifecta, Kate Dwyer took out the women’s over 40s logger for her first national too. Young Mia Waite also deserves a special mention for making the finals of both junior longboard and logger. As I write, the super seniors are still at it with several Noosa surfers in the mix, so the count of Aussie champs isn’t necessarily over. Maybe our surfing councillors should start thinking about a ticker-tape parade down Hastings Street, with plenty of free beer for the champions and, of course, the media. Is this Harry’s world title? Meanwhile, across the Pacific pond, the Vans Duct Tape WSL US Longboard Open concluded after our last deadline in fairly lamentable conditions at Huntington Beach with California and Angourie’s three-time world champion Taylor Jensen taking out the men’s from Kaniela Stewart, and Hawaii’s Kelis Kaleopa’a beating three-times champ Honolua Blomfield to take the women’s. These results create some interesting scenarios for the 2022 WSL world longboard title, which will be decided at Malibu in early October. Under the WSL system this year, the championship will be decided on the best two results of the tour’s three stops – Manly, NSW, Huntington Beach and Malibu, both in California. With double points on offer at Malibu, and a 10-day window to catch an Indian summer swell at California’s best point break, it could be an exciting finish. Let’s take a look at the women’s first. Honno Blomfield is close to unbeatable with a win at Manly and a second at Huntington. Ke lis, who didn’t surf at Manly, would have to win again at Malibu, surfing backside, to win the title.There are probably mathematical possibil ities that she, and even Brazil’s Chloe Calmon could win the title without winning at Malibu but both would depend on Honno having an absolute shocker. I can’t see that happening. In the men’s, current ratings leader is Kani Stewart with a third and a second place, but the veteran Jensen, now 38, is tied with Noosa’s Harrison Roach in second, both sitting on a win and a ninth throwaway. I’ve seen both these guys surf their brains out in great Malibu, and a final between them in good conditions would be something for the ages. But first they have to get there, and both have been known to falter in early rounds. I would say Harrison is less likely to come unstuck at Malibu because he’s become more competitively focused with age, whereas until Huntington, Taylor had been a long time off theOnpodium.theother hand, Harry let the inexperienced Tosh Tudor take him out at Huntington. By the time this comes around, the shortboard WSL finals series will be done and dusted and this will be the last big event of the year. What better way for us to celebrate the imminent arrival of summer, than for Harry to bring his first world title home to Noosa. But no pressure.

And there is no time like now to indulge in that Noosa Sound lifestyle. Open the oh-so-tall bespoke timberframed glass panelled doors of a classy yet serene sculptured form,step into a gallery-like foyer where natural light, thanks to a soaring ceiling and the atrium’s glass wall, dances over what appears to be endless glamorous Italian terrazzo floor tiles. Eyes are immediately drawn to the massive centerpiece of the residence – abundant use of plantation shutters in the open plan yet defined living and dining areas, which have the added benefit of a cathedral-style peak, while lanky disappearing doors on the south side, morph in a seamless fashion to outdoors. The covered terrace with Merbau decking, has integrated barbeque facilities, extends almost around the dazzling pool and the rear and side gardens are fringed with tropical plants. No matter the reason or the season, it certainly all adds immense entertainment value to the residence. Commensurate is the on-trend bright white, galley-style kitchen with stonetopped island and 2-pac cabinetry, a clear pane splashback looking out to the Bromeliad-dotted garden, plus the latest induction cooktop and double ovens. Additional bench space also an integrated dishwasher in the butler’s pantry will delight anyone channeling Nigella Lawson.

In property marketing, the value of print advertising cannot be overstated. Some real estate agents are telling sellers all buyers (and potential sellers), will see the property on the Internet, but that is far from the truth. “Sellers are missing opportunities which could be costing them dearly” explained Tom Offermann, eponymous real estate company principal. “We gather an enormous amount of data which dramatically demonstrates how powerful print media is. The numbers at open houses can quadruple when an ad appears in Noosa Today, and the trafﬁc to websites clearly spikes as readers head there for more information. Property editorials, auction results and up-to-the-minute stories in early general news, are also invaluable.”

“Add cost. Marketing is not the place to take shortcuts if you are aiming for a premium price, and advertising in the local newspaper is inexpensive. I feel sorry for property owners who have been advised to solely advertise on the web. It would be nice if it was that simple, but the truth is it is not. A lot of work goes into designing and running a comprehensive marketing campaign and agents who think web-only advertising is the quick ﬁx, are taking risks with their client’s investment.”-TomOffermann
