REVIEW\ MOUTHING OFF MAN OVERBOARD Can you match-make a successful, on-air partnership?

Well, none of us get to self-select, of course, but the ingredients needed for two people to spark and sync on television and radio are still mysterious to me. I know when it works; I sure as hell know when it doesn’t. So when the crusty former head of ABC News and Current Affairs, John Cameron, decided to pitch me with long-time foreign correspondent Peter Lloyd for a new television breakfast program, I was intrigued.

I knew Peter’s work well and admired it enormously.

I knew he was quick on his feet and seemed to love the live environment like I did. But Peter and I reckoned a boss was an unlikely Yenta. Like unwilling teenagers, we made our own plans.

The night before the big meeting in Melbourne at which the new show would be proposed, Peter and I skipped into the Supper Club, lined up the martinis and swapped our life stories. There I learned of his incredibly challenging recent life as a reporter, of his beautiful sons and former wife who was still his best friend. Of his

relationship with Mazlee and his desire to come home.

He was whip-smart and informed, quick and funny.

He seemed as highly-strung as the rest of us, nothing unusual there. He was, of course, hiding it very well.

The next morning, with somewhat foggy heads, we staggered our way through the meeting, but the die was cast for us. We were a team already. We said our goodbyes with great excitement about the project to come.

And then came the arrest and the beginning of his nightmare, and Peter Lloyd’s long struggle with and return from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

One of the great life lessons I have learnt the hard way is how important it is to turn up. To make the call; to extend the hand, or to jump on that plane and go. So I did. The next time I saw Peter was in Singapore as I accompanied him to his required meeting with the local police. He was shattered and I was trying in that helpless way to be encouraging and positive. But I wanted him to know his colleagues were backing him. This time, over fish-head curry, we shared a very different life story.

My phantom partner, and now dear friend and colleague, Peter Lloyd has told that story in Inside Story: From ABC Foreign Correspondent to Singapore Prisoner #12988. It’s an unflinching account of the events that led to his arrest in Singapore for possession of methamphetamine and his journey back from PTSD.

DISTRIBUTION \ 1800 032 472 distribution@theweeklyreview.com.au

It made sense the moment I heard it. I’ve heard and experienced varying forms of this trauma before and I’ve known enough people working in front-line occupations that I should be able to recognise the symptoms: the self-medication (yes, I feel bad about those martinis now!), the reckless behaviour; the nightmares and waking anxieties; the energetic, almost frantic highs; the shattering lows; the disappearances.

I’ve written before about how personal experience of a mental illness or psychological disorder forever changes your attitudes and expectations of people.

The challenge in the professional setting is, I think, a little different and requires even more of us. In the workplace the carefully constructed “rules” about who has and hasn’t got it together are of no use, compassion is better than expectation, and everyone has a responsibility to empathise.

Peter is safely back home now and I have the great pleasure of working instead with the redoubtable Michael Rowland, so doors do close but windows swing open. And I can see that clear air and bright sunshine is pouring in on my friend Peter.

REVIEW\ COVER STORY It’s a decade since a horseman galloped into the Sydney Olympic Stadium to signal the start of the 2000 Games. SARAH MARINOS talks to some of the Melbourne medallists about life after Sydney.

OH, HAPPY DAIS n September 15, 2000, Sydney welcomed the Olympic Games to Australia. About 110,000 spectators in the Olympic Stadium, and many millions worldwide, watched the spectacular opening ceremony that peaked when Cathy Freeman lit the flame.

From day one of competition, medals kept coming for the 632-strong Australian team, which bagged 58 medals – 16 gold, 25 silver and 17 bronze – and finished fourth on the medal table behind the US, Russia and China.

There were many highlights – Freeman’s gold in the high-pressure 400-metre final and the men’s 4x100-metre freestyle relay against the fancied US. The Australians played air guitars poolside – a payback after US swimmer Gary Hall jnr vowed to smash the Australian team like “guitars”.

The women’s water polo team won gold after a last-second goal and Australia also won two sailing gold medals and its first archery and taekwondo gold. Beach volleyballers Kerri Pottharst and Natalie Cook won gold on Bondi Beach and we also triumphed in cycling, women’s hockey and equestrian.

A decade on, The Weekly Review caught up with some Melbourne medallists to talk about life after Sydney.

“I’d like to organise my wedding. It won’t be a big do, just something simple. But that’s been delayed a little because I’ve just had an operation on my left hand – torn ligaments in my thumb. I took my cousin’s kids skiing and as I was teaching them how to ski, they fell, bent my thumb and tore the ligaments. After ankle and knee reconstructions I wasn’t too bothered. It’s just another op!” she says, laughing.

Reflecting on Sydney, Edebone admits she would have liked to do better. “Deep down we felt we should have been in the gold-medal game. But that’s sport for you, it wasn’t meant to be,” she says with a shrug.

“I walked away from Sydney knowing I gave it my all.”

RUSSELL MARK SHOOTING \ SILVER

PETA EDEBONE SOFTBALL \ BRONZE Peta Edebone, 41, represented Australia in softball 330 times before she retired in 2004. She competed at three world championships and three Olympics – winning bronze in Atlanta and Sydney and silver medal in Athens.

Edebone juggled her softball career with a job at the AFL. She joined the league in 1990 and now works in the Total Player Payment department, monitoring player contracts.

But the Bombers supporter has maintained her links with softball, coaching the Victorian women’s team.

“I’d still love to be out there playing but there comes a time when your body just can’t do it,” says Edebone.

“After Athens I had numerous knee operations and my surgeon actually tried to convince me to retire after the Sydney Olympics. But I had unfinished business and I went against medical advice but after Athens, physically and mentally, I knew I couldn’t do it any more.”

While some athletes struggle to give up an elite sporting career, Edebone says her work and coaching softball helped her make that transition.

“I stayed involved with softball because the sport gave me so much,” she says. “But it’s nice not to have that highly structured routine now. My partner and I have an apartment on the Gold Coast and we take off for a weekend there quite often. I could never do that when I was playing softball.”

Edebone initially joined the AFL as a receptionist and worked in finance and membership before her current position. She’s also team manager for the Australian Institute of Sport under-17 AFL team.

Edebone’s partner of five years also works for the AFL and they became engaged in November.

The 2012 Olympics in London will be Russell Mark’s last Games. The sharpshooter from Hoppers Crossing won silver in Sydney and with his wife, Lauryn, also an international shooting champion, Mark runs a business organising shooting days for corporate customers.

Mark’s most powerful memory of Sydney was marching into the stadium during the opening ceremony.

“I was good friends with Andrew Gaze and to see him carry the flag for Australia was great,” recalls Mark. “Being involved in an individual event, that night was one of the few times I felt part of a team. I’d been to a few Olympics so the organisers plonked me up the front ... the reaction was unforgettable.

“Winning a silver medal gave me mixed feelings. I won the previous Olympics, so at the time silver was a disappointment but now I’m pretty happy with my career.”

Mark, 46, says London will be his last Olympics. “I’m aiming for London and I want to win gold and I’d like to retire after the Commonwealth Games in Scotland because I’ll be 50 then,” he says. “I’m one of the oldest competitors in clay-target shooting now. The other athletes call me ‘Fossil’. I remember going to the 1984 national championships and looking at the guys who were heading to the LA Olympics and thinking ‘I want to do what they’re doing’. I was only 20 and that became my aim in life. But it has to end.”

Life has been good to Mark since Sydney. He’d just started dating Lauryn after they met at a World Cup event in 1999.

They married in 2004 and have two children – Sierra, five, and Indiana, three. Mark also has a 12-year-old daughter, Holly.

US-born Lauryn became an Australian citizen and finished fourth at the Athens Olympics for Australia.

“I’ve been lucky to turn my pastime into my profession,” says Mark. “Before Atlanta I was a real-estate valuer. Then I went to Atlanta and won gold and never valued another property.

Nobody prepares you for how your life changes after you win an Olympic Games – like getting a call from the Sultan of Brunei, who has built a shooting range for his brother and wants you to teach him to shoot. Before I knew it I was on my way to Brunei – all because I’d won a medal for shooting things out of the sky.”

MICHAEL KLIM SWIMMING \ 2 GOLD, 2 SILVER

“MY IDENTITY WILL ALWAYS BE AS A SWIMMER AND TO WALK AWAY FROM YOUR IDENTITY INITIALLY IS DIFFICULT.”

Michael Klim, 33, retired from swimming in June 2007 but continues to enjoy a high profile. He has two children with his Balinese princess wife, Lindy – Stella, 5, and Rocco, 2 – and the couple started a skincare range, Milk, a few years ago. They have also just built a new beachside home.

Klim decided to end his swimming career on a high. As he saw his times in the pool start to plateau, he knew it was time to move on.

“Throughout my whole swimming career I had a passion and a love for swimming and I was losing that love. I was becoming resentful towards my body because I couldn’t get what I wanted out of it,” he says.

“So I decided to walk away before I became really angry. But it was hard. When I walk down the street in Melbourne today people still say ‘oh, that’s the swimmer guy’. My identity will always be as a swimmer and to walk away from your identity initially is difficult.”

But Klim had plenty to distract him.

“I was recently married, we had a new baby and we were moving house. I had also started to develop Milk.

But I had to stay stimulated. I could never sit at home and be a couch potato,” says Klim, laughing.

Sound advice from his businessman father also ensured Klim was financially set up for retirement. There were swim schools and Klim also turned his attention to skincare – an idea he came up with after years immersed in swimming pools. Today, the Milk range is sold across Australia and in Hong Kong, China, Singapore, France, Denmark, Holland and Switzerland.

“I sat down with a group of branding people and they said, ‘what does the Michael Klim brand represent?’ and for me it was about helping people be their best, whether that’s in skincare, motivational speaking and corporate training,” he says.

Klim averages at least one speaking engagement a week, often with businesses that want to learn how his swimming success can be transferred to their world.

“I did a presentation recently for a group of people who work for a national sports store and I started with the footage of the 4x100-metre relay from Sydney. Towards the end, they started cheering and clapping and saying ‘Come on, come on’. They were all still excited watching that event,” says Klim, laughing.

Asked about his personal highlights, Klim nominates “marrying a princess”. The couple met in September 2004 when they were paired for a Myer fashion show.

They married in 2006.

“Lindy isn’t a sporty person, she’s more creative and musical and she’s into fashion. I’m very much the typical athlete. But we complement each other,” he says.

As the 10th anniversary of Sydney drew nearer, Klim admitted there were moments when he still missed the excitement of competition.

“I miss standing on the blocks. I miss the performance,” he says.

REVIEW\ COVER STORY » GRANT HACKETT

SWIMMING \ 2 GOLD

Now enjoying a career in finance and as a TV presenter for Channel Nine, Grant Hackett won three gold, three silver and a bronze medal (in total) in Sydney, Athens and Beijing. He retired from the pool in 2008.

Some of the standout moments of Sydney for Hackett were winning his first Olympic gold medal (beating home 1500-metre superstar Keren Perkins, who was seeking his third straight Olympic gold) in front of a home crowd and the atmosphere in Sydney.

“The night I won the 1500-metre freestyle, a busload of us were taken to Darling Harbour,” he recalls. “There were about 100,000 people there and as I got off the bus they began screaming. It was overwhelming for a 20-year-old kid.”

Hackett went on to win at Athens (one gold, two silver) and Beijing (one silver, one bronze) before hanging up his goggles in 2008. By then he already had his sights set on a future career and has made a successful transition from athletics to finance.

“As a sports person, you have to be prepared to start again,” says Hackett, 30. “I went straight into working in finance with Westpac, something I’d been studying while I was swimming.”

Hackett completed a diploma of financial services and a diploma of business law at Bond University, Queensland, while he was competing and this year started an MBA. After working in Westpac’s private banking sector, he now heads a new division focused on bespoke financial services for people working in sports and entertainment.

He’s also relishing a TV career presenting sports and a weekly travel program.

“I spend four days with the bank, a day shooting the Postcards program, and then do Wide World of Sports up in Sydney on a Sunday. It would be disappointing to me if I got to 50 or 60 and sport was the only thing I ever really achieved something in.”

Hackett admits he has been a driven individual since growing up in Queensland. “I was close to my mates but I guess I was a bit different,” he says. “I was just focused on my swimming and my mates respected what I was trying to achieve. In sport you have to be mature at a young age.”

Elite sport has also taught Hackett to deal with life’s challenges – such as becoming a father to twins a year ago. He says the arrival of Jagger and Charlize makes an Olympic gold medal “look pretty average”.

“The first months are hard yakka but when I finish work I often run home in my suit so I can see them before they go to bed. Having those two little people in my life is a great joy,” he says.

Hackett lives close to his city office so he can spend more time with his family. “There’s no fat in there,” he says, laughing.

“But at 14, I was already getting up at 4.45am to swim seven kilometres before school, so I’m used to a busy schedule.”

Grant Hackett celebrates his gold medal in the 1500-metre freestyle on day eight in Sydney. Kieren Perkins, seeking a third gold, won silver.

MICHELLE FERRIS – CYCLING \ SILVER Michelle Ferris, from Warrnambool, won silver in the women’s 500-metre time trial at Sydney but retired at 23. In 2007, she got back on her bike and won three gold medals at the World Masters Championships.

When Ferris stepped away from cycling, she was mentally and physically burnt out.

“It took me five or six years to be at peace with myself,” she says frankly. “People were saying ‘why did you give it away?’ but it was the right time for me. You can’t be an elite athlete if you are not there mentally.”

The struggles after retiring were a far cry from when she stood on the podium at Sydney to receive a silver medal.

“I remember being at the start gate of the 500-metre time trial and all of a sudden I heard the crowd chant my name. The hype and support of the crowd certainly helped me. I did a personal best and came home with silver,” says Ferris, 33.

“Cycling was all I had known. I finished school at year 10, so I didn’t have a full high-school qualification and I spent three or four years in the wilderness after retiring, not knowing what I wanted to do and unsure of what I could do.

“In the tough times I wondered if it would be easier to just jump off the Harbour Bridge. So to be happy and where I am today after that is amazing. In the national cycling team I’d spent 10 years being told when to get up, when to sleep, what to eat and when to train. And then you walk away from that and have to fit back into society. I got through that period by slowing things down, concentrating on myself and being with the people I’m closest to.”

Ferris also started cycling again with the local Warrnambool cycling club. “Riding around the roads where I rode as a kid brought back the enjoyment of cycling. I couldn’t stay angry with it after that,” she says.

Ferris is now part of the sales team with international cycling company Shimano. She has also started a junior women’s development team in NSW to coach the next generation of Australian cyclists.

Ferris and her partner, Kylie, have a one-year-old daughter, Paige, who has also brought her happiness.

“There’s nothing better than waking up in the morning and seeing Paige smiling at me,” says Ferris. “I met Kylie in the middle of the hardest period of my life, about six years ago, so she’s seen me at my worst and she’s helped point me in the right direction. I’ve packed a lot into my life and, despite the challenges, it’s been a fantastic ride.”

LOUDY WIGGINS DIVING \ BRONZE Better known to Sydney fans as Loudy Tourky, Wiggins was only 17 when she competed at her first Olympic Games in Atlanta. In Sydney, she won bronze and became the first Australian in 76 years to win an Olympic diving medal.

From the age of five, she showed star quality as a gymnast, which took her to the Australian Institute of Sport. But at 11 she switched to diving and when the Atlanta Olympics came around in 1996, Wiggins, became the youngest member of the Australian diving team.

She came 19th in Atlanta but in Sydney she teamed with Rebecca Gilmore and the pair took the bronze medal in the women’s synchronised platform event.

“It was the first time synchronised diving was at the Olympics and we weren’t expected to win a medal, but we knew we could,” says Wiggins. “But my individual event was an absolute nightmare. I stood on the platform and my legs were shaking, nerves overcame me and I couldn’t jump.

Usually at a competition I had 25 people watching me. All of a sudden there were 8000 people and I was overwhelmed.”

Wiggins knew individually she could do better. The following year she came third in the 10-metre platform at the World Championships in Fukuoka and then won bronze in Athens. She then aimed for Beijing but a calf injury brought her diving career to a premature close.

“I cried myself to sleep for months. It was a disappointing end but now I can look back and be grateful,” she says.

Wiggins had already started to build a life away from diving.

In 2005 she completed a media and communications degree and in 2004 she met the man who would become her husband, Carlton footballer Simon Wiggins.

“After the Athens Olympics I took my first holiday and travelled around Greece with a friend. Simon was on a footy trip and we met in Santorini. I flew back to Australia the next day but we met up again later,” says Wiggins, 31.

The couple married in 2007 and are expecting their first child in October. Wiggins says she doesn’t miss international competition and is happy working in advertising and organising her inner-Melbourne home.

“I enjoy cooking and cleaning,” she says. “It sounds simple but as an athlete you can’t do normal things very often and, when I was diving, I craved normality.”

» LAUREN BURNS TAEKWONDO \ GOLD

“BECOMING A MUM HAS BEEN THE GREATEST THING IN MY LIFE. IT JUST DOESN’T COMPARE TO ANYTHING ELSE.”

Lauren Burns (right) celebrates her gold medal after defeating Urbia Melendez Rodriguez of Cuba in the women’s 49-kilogram taekwondo final. It was the first time the sport had been given Olympic status.

SEPT 27

(SHAUN BOTTERILL / ALLSPORT / GETTY IMAGES)

When Lauren Burns won gold in Sydney, she became the first Australian to win an Olympic taekwondo medal. A decade on, Burns, 36, has trained to be a naturopath and has just had her second child.

Some days Sydney seems like it was only a recent turning point in life for Lauren Burns. Other days it seems life a lifetime ago.

“There have been two Olympics since Sydney and I’ve commentated them, and watching those events I don’t always connect that I was part of the Olympics,” says Burns.

“It’s almost surreal. I see someone winning a gold medal and I think ‘wow, that’s amazing’. And then I think, ‘but hold on, that’s what I did’. Winning a gold medal was certainly a pinnacle for me. I went to Sydney with a job to do – to win. So achieving that was wonderful but there are other moments.

“It was my first Olympics and seeing so many athletes from so many different countries and sports in one place was something I’ll never forget. The whole circus of the Olympic Games was incredible.”

Burns retired from competitive sport after Sydney – injuries taking their toll. But the emphasis on fitness and health has remained. She has studied naturopathy and plans to start a business running corporate health programs.

But Burns currently has her hands full with an 18-month-old son and a baby girl who arrived in August.

“Becoming a mum has been the greatest thing in my life. It just doesn’t compare to anything else,” she says.

“I feel I’m at the right stage for children and I’ve just immersed myself in being a mum.”

Her gold medal opened doors for Burns that she never expected. She’s still in demand on the corporate-speaking circuit, with her audiences never tiring of Burns’ Olympic stories and learning the secrets of how she reached the top of her chosen sport.

“I never expected the media attention I got after Sydney,” she says.

“I remember after I won the gold medal people said to me, ‘the corporate speaking is fantastic. Do it while you can because those opportunities will probably only last about a year’. But that’s still my main source of income after 10 years.”

Burns began a bachelor of applied science in naturopathy while she was competing, fitting in subjects whenever she could between travelling and training as an athlete.

“Naturopathy has interested me for a long time and it was always something I wanted to do. I qualified last year and have a few private clients,” she says.

“Once my second baby is a little older, I’d like to become more involved in the health industry. My goals are simple – to work and to have a happy family. That’s the most important goal of all.”

SEP 29

KATIE ALLEN HOCKEY \ GOLD Katie Allen, 36, was part of Australia’s gold medal-winning field hockey team in Sydney. She also won World Cup and Commonwealth Games titles. Today, she’s head coach for women’s hockey at the Victorian Institute of Sport.

Allen can still remember the nervous energy that gripped her as Australia’s women’s hockey team drove towards the Olympic Village in Sydney. That nervousness stayed with her, only subsiding when the team won a gold medal.

“I remember coming from the Blue Mountains, where we’d been staying on a camp. And then we drove into Sydney on the bus and I realised the enormity of what was happening,” says Allen.

“We’d been preparing for Sydney for what seemed like forever and now it was happening and I was pretty overwhelmed. As we drove into Sydney that day, it hit me that this was when the hard work started. That anxiety never left me until our competition ended.”

Allen retired after the Athens Olympics in 2004, after she failed to be selected for the Australian squad for the following year. She returned to her native South Australia to play at national league level and then took a break for a couple of years.

“My hockey career with Australia finished in a disappointing way and I felt I needed a break. When you’ve been an elite athlete for years, there also comes a point when you need time out to get on with your career or to have a family,” she says.

“So I got a ‘real’ job.”

As a qualified primary-school teacher, Allen, who moved to Melbourne in 2002, began teaching at the Albert Park Primary School and then did relief teaching. She has also worked for the Australian Sports Commission and managed an after-school communities program in Victoria, which funds primary schools to run physical activity programs. She also married at the end of 2004.

“As an athlete you’re focused on your sport and everything else, like relationships, gets put aside,” she says.

“So getting married has been a highlight since Sydney.”

In April last year, Allen took on the head coaching position at the Victorian Institute of Sport.

“I loved competing at the highest level and now I want to get the best out of the athletes I work with. Coaching is different from playing.

“There’s more than skill – it’s about working with people, management, co-ordinating a group and analysing the players and the opposition,” she says.

“After spending some years away from hockey, I was really ready to be a full-time coach again. Hockey is in my blood.”

Sydney 2000 was Giaan Rooney’s first taste of Olympic Games competition and she walked away with two silver medals in the 4x100-metre medley and the 4x200-metre freestyle. In Athens, Rooney won gold and retired two years later to pursue a media career.

While winning two silver medals at her first Olympics put a wide smile on Rooney’s face, when asked to pick one of her most special memories from Sydney, she nominates another medal moment for Australia.

“I remember the night Cathy Freeman won the 400 metres. I’d snuck in to the stadium because it was a sell-out,” recalls Rooney, 27.

“I remember sitting on the concrete steps, near the finish line of the running track and watching Cathy win that race.

And then I watched nearly 100,000 people get to their feet as one and go nuts. That was an amazing moment.”

Rooney had been a member of the Australian swimming team for three years when she raced in Sydney.

“We were at our pre-camp in Melbourne and Kieren Perkins came to speak to us and he said it would change the rest of our life,” says Rooney.

“Being part of Sydney brought home to me how much I wanted to experience an Olympics again. After that, I was totally committed to the next four years of training because I wanted to go to Athens.

“The time has gone incredibly fast but in some ways Sydney also feels like a lifetime ago. A lot has changed in 10 years. But when I talk about these moments, it seems like it was yesterday.”

At the time of the Sydney Olympics, Rooney hadn’t given much thought to the day when her swimming career would

“I REMEMBER SITTING ON THE CONCRETE STEPS, NEAR THE FINISH LINE OF THE RUNNING TRACK AND WATCHING CATHY WIN THAT RACE. AND THEN I WATCHED NEARLY 100,000 PEOPLE GET TO THEIR FEET AS ONE AND GO NUTS. THAT WAS AN AMAZING MOMENT.”

end. But when she retired in 2006 she was already enjoying a flourishing media career and she’s since become the face of Palmer’s Cocoa Butter and Jockey underwear.

“My parents instilled in me that swimming was fantastic but it could end tomorrow so plan your next move,” she says.

“As a swimmer I was sponsored by Channel Nine for a few years after the Sydney Olympics. I enjoyed that world and I learned about how the media worked, so when I retired, Channel Nine offered me a job presenting.

“I like that no two days are the same – unlike in swimming where it can be very monotonous. One day I might be in the countryside filming a piece for Postcards and interviewing and then I might do some voiceovers and then I might be on an early morning flight interstate to host a function somewhere. I get to go to different places, see different things and meet different people all the time and I love that.”

Rooney says swimming has taught her the correlation between hard work and success and how to handle pressure.

“I was 17 at the Sydney Olympics. Now I’m older, hopefully wiser and know a little more about the world,” she says.

“I’d definitely love to see marriage and children later.

My parents are celebrating their 32nd wedding anniversary this year and I’d love to be a mum. My aim in life is to have no regrets and to find happiness in what I do.” \ editorial@theweeklyreview.com.au » WE WELCOME YOUR FEEDBACK @ www.theweeklyreview.com.au/cover-story

REVIEW\ HIS VIEW

When the safety net fails s we all slowly decompose into cardigans and comfy slippers, we’re told to respect our elders. In practice, however, it’s hard to respect someone who still thinks pencils are the height of communication technology. I love my grandmother dearly, but my throat is parched from the grains of salt needed to accompany her outdated wisdom. Yes, she is a fierce woman who survived World War II, but I can’t help rolling my eyes at a woman whose technological prowess is limited to using the phone to call my dad to ask how the VCR works.

Every job I’ve had that remotely involves a keyboard is described to my grandmother’s friends as “he works in computers”. Which is like saying I’m a chef because I can open a packet of chips. It’s a shame I can’t get my dear old grandma on the net, as it’s the perfect

(THINKSTOCK)

A

resource for the elderly. Without leaving their chair they can reunite with friends who have been strangers for decades, read entire libraries of books, and old people can lose their minds over photos of cats. After all, the internet is the penultimate source of all things kitten.

More importantly, the internet is the nexus of complaining. On any given forum you’ll find a nearunlimited supply of youths to harass about face-piercing and hitching up those darn jeans so we don’t have to see their underwear. You can practically hear denture adhesive coming loose from old people salivating at the prospect. Despite all these appealing factors, I simply can’t get my grandmother on the net. All she will say on the topic is, “I don’t need a computer, my brain works just fine.”

How dare she imply my beloved internet somehow makes us stupid? It’s the greatest educational resource this world has ever known. We can instantaneously view the sum of our knowledge and, through openly sharing our thoughts and feelings, we have a real shot at understanding what it means to be human.

Although when I get sent yet another link to a video of a cross-dressing obese guy dancing to Beyoncé, I can’t help think the mauve battleaxe has a point.

In fact, I know she does. For the past week my internet has been down, and while my provider assures me they are working diligently to sticky tape my umbilical chord back on to mother internet, I am not coping well. The first day or so was fine, but by week’s end I had massive withdrawal symptoms. There was no one to validate my thoughts with a digital “thumbs up”. In a world obsessed with social status, I had none to update.

Yesterday I couldn’t just type :) to express happiness.

I had to smile at the checkout girl – with my face. I think

I creeped her out by tilting my head 90 degrees to make the smiley face more authentic. Then my girlfriend came home to find me curled up foetal, pressing the tiny screen of my iPhone against my face. I even used said phone to actually call someone instead of emailing them. Can you imagine what that’s like? Using a phone as an actual phone. Even now, the thought of it makes me shudder.

It’s completely annoying when your grandparents are right, but I don’t think computers have turned us into fools. I think the internet is to attention spans what drive-throughs are to hunger. We get what we want with little to no waiting and, if you’re like me, the ringmaster of a constant carnival of ideas, it’s tricky to stay focused on just the one thing with so many tempting interruptions to click on. This means the final fruit of my labours is a little on the green side of ripe as I don’t dedicate all my attention to it. Basically, I can’t see the forest for all the pop-up ads.

At least my generation will be one of the first to truly benefit from the internet in our woolknit years. This future group of Grey Surfers will be similar to our grandparents in a lot of respects. My grandmother used to tell me how her family gathered around the wireless, and I’ll tell my grandchildren that we used to gather around the wireless internet connection, downloading photos of kittens and celebrities.

Those were simpler times. \ SIMON KECK frenchelbow@gmail.com » WE WELCOME YOUR FEEDBACK @ www.theweeklyreview.com.au/my-view

Pakistan floods.

Vulnerable children urgently need your help.

Approximately 18 million people - equivalent to almost the whole population of Australia - have been affected by Pakistan’s worst floods in living memory.

The situation is far worse than first thought. According to the UN at least 8 million children have been seriously affected.

Humanitarian operations are underway and aid is being delivered, but relief needs to be scaled up.

UNICEF is appealing for US$141 million.

REVIEW\ TRAVEL Buenos Aires’ amazing economic recovery has rejuvenated the city, writes KENDALL HILL.

FAST TANGO IN ARGENTINA ess than a decade ago Buenos Aires was a bankrupt, derelict capital where those who managed to salvage some cash from the country’s 2001 economic collapse fled to Europe or America.

Today, all the traffic is in the opposite direction as the Argentine capital enjoys a renaissance centred on dynamic design and cuisine and a passion for beauty and life. This city of about 14 million porteños (port-dwellers) has tango, sure. Eva Peron, definitely. And yes, it’s a carnivore’s feast. But Buenos Aires is far more than the sum of its clichés.

L COLON THEATRE

STAY

Inner-city Palermo is a thriving neighbourhood of cool boutiques, bars and cafés and makes an excellent base for a visit to Buenos Aires. The city’s first boutique hotel, 1555 Malabia House, is a former convent offering comfortably modern accommodation in 15 rooms. www.malabiahouse.com.ar

CAMINITO STREET, LA BOCA

Near Palermo Hollywood (so-called because it’s home to media and TV companies), an old motor mechanic’s workshop has been reborn as Costa Petit, an elegant four-room hotel decorated beautifully with vintage mementoes. A compact swimming pool now occupies the pit once used for vehicle inspections. www. costapetithotel.com

In raffish San Telmo, the city’s oldest neighbourhood, the 39-suite Moreno Hotel is in a handsome art-deco building with a wrought-iron lift and four-metre ceilings. The in-house theatre often hosts tango performances. www.morenobuenosaires.com For stays of a week or more, there are hundreds of affordable apartments for rent. The website www. bytargentina.com is well-established and reliable, with a huge list of properties searchable by suburb or street. Expect to pay an average $US300 ($A338) a week for one bedroom, $US600 a week for two bedrooms. Palermo Viejo and Recoleta are good neighbourhoods to base yourself, handy to key capital attractions.

EAT AND DRINK

Carnivores are spoilt for choice in a land where the average Argentine consumes about 70 kilograms of beef a year. Head to the down-at-heel worker’s pub El Obrero (64 Agustín Caffarena Street) for a hefty side-serve of dockside ambience with your steak.

At the opposite end of the dining spectrum, Casa Cruz (1658 Uriarte) is the must-do dining experience for those who like to see and be seen. Celebrity chef Germán Martitegui cooks nouveau Argentine cuisine in glamorous surrounds here, while at his other restaurant,

Olsen (5870 Gorriti), Scandinavian fare and about 60 varieties of vodka are the order of the day.

In the city centre the atmospheric Café Tortoni (829 Avenida de Mayo) has borne witness to Argentina’s volatile history since 1858 and remains a charming spot for coffee (a cortado doble is vaguely similar to a flat white) and croissants, called medialunas here.

Palermo is café central: Cluny (4618 El Salvador) does a decent menu of international favourites and makes a fine spot for a long liquid lunch; the popular Sudestada (5602 Guatemala) does Asian-fusion food – expect familiar Thai staples and innovative desserts such as lychee and cashew-nut tart.

For a purely theatrical eating experience, Sifones y Dragones (174 Ciudad de la Paz) has 16 seats in a pop-art kitchen, where menus are delivered in sealed envelopes and diners are handed a “conceptual gift” at the end of their meal. The food is conservative by comparison – soy poached salmon, for example, and terrific chocolate cake.

Popular cheap street snacks include milanesas (crumbed veal schnitzels), empanadas of every persuasion, and delicious gelato, a welcome antidote to steamy summers.

Pizza is also huge in this city of Italian immigrants; one of the most popular pizzerias is Filo (975 San Martin),

SEE AND DO

The recently reopened Teatro Colon is regarded as one of the world’s finest opera houses and offers a grand (but inexpensive) night out in the capital. On the schedule for 2010 are symphonic performances by conductors Daniel Barenboim and Zubin Mehta as well as ballets and operas. www.teatrocolon.org.ar

Eva Peron’s remains draw daily hordes of pilgrims to the Recoleta Cemetery (1790 Junín) – just follow the crowds to her flower-strewn tomb, and mind the touts at the entrance.

The power and the passion of Argentine football are on display at La Bombonera, home to Boca Juniors. Boca’s supporters are famously rowdy, so book a visit through your hotel with a licensed tour operator who can chaperone you through the sometimes-volatile stadium. Giant hotdogs called superpanchos are the spectators’ snack of choice.

Uruguay lies just across the River Plate and a fast two-hour ferry trip will take you to the World Heritage-listed resort city of Colonia del Sacramento, with its evocative historic quarter and orange blossom-scented streets. Buquebus (www.buquebus.com) operates daily services between the two cities for about $US50 return. \ khill@theweeklyreview.com.au

TRADITION TAKES A BREAK MARIA HARRIS discovers a house that goes against the normal trend in Eaglemont … but in a very, very good way.

aglemont is known for its large leafy blocks and substantial, tightly held period houses.

But as some of the larger estates are subdivided, new houses are being built, creating a contemporary style to the Eaglemont landscape. One of these is this stylish, modern house on one of the best-known streets.

The house, on a sizeable block of about 650 square metres, was built in 2002 on land carved from the backyard of a neighbouring property. It is well sited on the block, so that it has a large area of north-facing deck, balcony and garden for outdoor entertaining and relaxing. And, best of all, it has the grand views over the hills for which Eaglemont is renowned.

All living areas face north. From the street, the rendered, two-tone façade, with large windows on the upper level and ground floor, gives no sense of the house’s size. The ground floor is devoted to living,

dining, kitchen and indoor/outdoor entertaining. As with many modern houses, the formal dining room is a thing of the past. Four bedrooms and a study are on the first floor. The basement contains the double garage and a large storage room.

That’s the accommodation, but this house is all about light, large living spaces, low maintenance and entertaining, indoors and out.

A generous entry has the carpeted staircase directly ahead. Stairs go up to the first floor and down to the double garage. Off the entry, and open to it, is the living room. A picture window overlooks the front garden and a window on the side wall provides a view of the garden on the southern side of the house.

From the living room, steps take you past the powder room to the heart of the house – the kitchen and meals area. Open plan, with an island bench and Gaggenau appliances in the bench against the wall, this kitchen is designed so that the cook can always have a view

through the sliding glass doors to the balcony and need never feel isolated from what is happening in the meals area or outside. The balcony is large enough for a barbecue and tables and chairs. Even on a cloudy spring day, the house is light, thanks to the windows all along the northern side. But the design provides wide overhangs that give protection from the summer sun.

From the kitchen/meals area, a few stairs lead to the family room, which has large expanses of windows facing east and north. In the rear wall, double doors open to a large timber deck, which has been designed to create a series of outdoor rooms. Then there is the main deck, which is perfect for outdoor living and entertaining. The deck is also around the side of the house and is part of the landscaped garden.

At the front of the house, again, the wide staircase – carpeted in grey/blue – opens at the first-floor landing, where the rooms are arranged off a long hall.

The main bedroom and en suite occupy the full width

of the front of the house. With a skylight and window that overlook the streetscape, it is light and airy. As expected, it has a walk-in wardrobe and – adding to the sense of privacy – a luxurious en suite. It includes a bath surrounded by mosaic tiles, a floating vanity set in front of a mirrored wall, black granite benchtops, two stainless steel oval basins and burgundy cabinets.

Two more bedrooms and a large family bathroom are on one side of the hall. All three rooms have windows on the south side. The large fourth bedroom, at the end of the hall, has a north-east-facing corner window with sweeping views over the treetops and to the hills. On the other side of the hall, a large balcony also has these views and abundant northern light. The sunny study, with views to the hills, is also on the northern side.

This house might break with Eaglemont traditions, but it could be the way of the future for this tightly held pocket of the inner north. \ mharris@theweeklyreview.com.au

“IT’S CONTEMPORARY, IT’S LARGE, AND IT’S EAGLEMONT. THAT SAYS IT ALL.” ANTHONY LAPADULA – SELLING AGENT

With its leafy surrounds and hilly topography, Eaglemont is one of the smallest residential pockets in Melbourne.

The 3767 people who made up Eaglemont at the 2006 census have a median age of 40.

It is made up of established families and elderly couples, hence the low turnover of houses. The average Eaglemont stay is about 23 years, says agent Anthony Lapadula.

Eaglemont buyers are usually on their third or fourth house and might have moved from neighbouring suburbs or from further north. Once there, they tend to stay.

The suburb has very few flats.

The great architect and town planner, Walter Burley Griffin, designed most of Eaglemont, including the famous Mount Eagle estate. Burley Griffin, best known for designing Canberra, planned Eaglemont to incorporate curved streets that follow the contours of the land. Several hidden parks are features of the landscape.

The Eaglemont Village is a quaint, old-world shopping street. Also nearby are the East Ivanhoe Village and the strip shopping centres of Ivanhoe and Heidelberg.

WE LOVE IT Let HARI RAJ help you select houses for your must-see shortlist.

IVANHOE The houses built into the hill on The Boulevard are often quite charming, and this one is no exception. Its elevated aspect gives it a refined, almost stately air, surveying the surroundings.

There’s a double garage on the street level; nothing to shout about, but the terraced aspect of the house means that the roof of the garage doubles as a spacious deck.

Further up is the house itself, which makes

sensible use of lots of floor-to-ceiling windows to make it light and airy. There are three good-sized bedrooms on this floor, all with built-in wardrobes.

The lounge room has views of Chelsworth Park, while from the dining room there is a glass-encased spiral staircase that leads one level down. Here you’ll find what the owners have set up as a study and rumpus room with two desks next to a picture window and room for a television, couches and a pool table.

There’s an abundance of under-house storage,

along with a separate bathroom; another entrance means that this would be ideal for a tenant, a teenager or the in-laws. Out the back is a pool and a spa; there’s also an external bathroom to clean up if you’ve just had a dip.

A water feature trickles down a carefully-maintained garden, set at an angle, into the pool.

There’s also a rear entrance to the property, with room to accommodate one more car; the path to the kitchen meanders around the pool and is a sensible alternative to bounding up the front steps when you’re laden with groceries. \

This well-presented house in Briar Hill features five bedrooms, one of which could also be used as a study (it has all the wiring you would need for the various electronic paraphernalia). The main bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe and an en suite, and the living room is under a charming sloped ceiling. The kitchen and family rooms look out onto the backyard, and there’s a laundry nook next to the kitchen, so unobtrusive you would hardly notice it. The big backyard is a definite highlight; there is all the room for entertaining you could want, and there is also a raised gazebo right in the middle from which you can survey the various goings-on. Shops and Briar Hill Primary School are close by. \

Deceptively large interiors lie in wait behind this house’s modern façade. The two living rooms downstairs and the large kitchen are appealing, as is the family room and the paved outdoor entertainment area – but the best use of all that space is upstairs, where you’ll find all four bedrooms.

The main bedroom is massive, with an en suite and a walk-through wardrobe, and the other three bedrooms have built-in wardrobes and are of generous proportions. The house has ducted heating and vacuum, and ceiling fans for the summer months. It’s situated in Springthorpe estate, which is a very attractive proposition for some families – residents get access to the country club, and at all times there’s the feeling of belonging to a particularly vibrant community. \

Driving down the long driveway that leads to the house, the first thing you pass is the pool; it looks out onto an expanse of greenery, with trees strategically placed to hide the road. There’s a deck surrounding the pool, which makes it ideal for lounging on summer days or entertaining.

The house has an unusual façade; it’s very ’70s but spiced up with a modern finish. It’s essentially one long rectangle, with liberal amounts of floor-to-ceiling windows (and a balcony, too) to provide views of the grounds and let in lots of light.

Inside, a corridor bisects the house; the living and dining rooms are on one side, along with the kitchen and the large meals area. Towards the rear are the bedrooms, including the main bedroom with its massive en suite. A family room separates the two other bedrooms on this floor, one of which is amazingly big – bigger even than the main bedroom.

One level down is the house’s entertaining precinct – there’s a billiards room (and yes, the table comes with the house), a wet bar and a rumpus room. There’s also another bedroom on this level, with an en suite bathroom, and under-house storage that runs almost the entire length of the house.

There’s a covered carport at the rear of the house that accommodates two cars, but there’s space for more; when the vendors entertained recently, more than 30 cars parked on the property. That should give you some idea of its size – but it’s well worth having a look yourself. \

homebuyers as we know it is returning to some sort of normality.

As this magazine lands in your letterbox, selling agents will be jetting back into Melbourne from warmer climes and, as the wheels touch the tarmac, mobiles will be switched back on and you may finally get your messages returned.

Some of you will be hearing about new homes and some of you will be asked if you are ready to sell before Christmas, with the line “it is a great time to do so now”.

The truth is, if that is what you want – or have – to do, you don’t have a lot of time left. You need to get on with it.

The new home stock mini-surge you will see this week and next is not the norm; it is the most you will see for the next four weeks as agents roll out their four-week auction campaigns before the next major buyer/ seller interrupter: the Melbourne Cup. After that we will get a second and final

mini-surge in the first three weeks of November. That’s when we will see four types of sellers release their homes for sale: 1 Those who bought in early spring and

now need to sell their previous home; 2 Patient sellers who needed a read on the

market before committing; 3 Election nervies (I hope they’re over it); 4 Speculators who put their homes into

the pre-Christmas cauldron in the hope some buying “wood-duck” will yell out a miracle 30 per cent above market price at their Saturday auction.

Come the end of November, for many buyers, the summer siesta begins and the general buying public will not see any new homes until school resumes in 2011.

That is not to say that the business of real estate grinds to a complete halt in Upper Heidelberg Road, Main Road and High Street – it’s just that a lot of it is done behind closed doors.

As buying agents, our email boxes run hot in late November/early December from

agents, acquaintances and inquirers who bought in late spring and want to sell in the same market but worry that putting their home on the market just before Christmas may leave it as a “stale” (unsold after a few months) come February. For those with a low risk profile, buying and selling in the same market is a must.

However, buyers, please don’t think you have the upper hand or the market all to yourself come Santa time. Those risk-averse transactors also work the other way. These are people who sell first and then must buy in the same market – for example, before Christmas.

So how is the post-grand final market looking for stock right now?

Synopsis: We think the market is back to some normality after the 2008 GFC, the 2009 recovery and the 2010 election. If demand remains, as seems likely, relatively level (that is with no Foreign Investment Review Board rule changes, no bank interest-rate surges or dollar drops), then it will be all about supply. Excess supply

ACT NOW IF YOU WANT TO SELL BEFORE CHRISTMAS the football WELL, has come to an end and life for

will see prices drop between now and Christmas, while a supply shortage will see prices firm.

So what is the word on the street right here and now come Mad Monday, to use a football parlance (my last one until next year), regarding supply?

That depends on who you talk to. David Oster, of Jellis Craig, Ivanhoe, believes that stock levels are looking very good after a soft September but thinks it will be a late spring.

Stewart Oldmeadow, of Miles Real Estate, also in Ivanhoe, agrees: “We’re finding numbers pretty strong at the moment in this area. I think it’ll hold at this level through to Christmas now. People have seen that the sky is not falling in, so emotion alone will determine if it has hit the apex or not.”

But Doug McLauchlan, of Marshall White in Hawthorn, says: “ Stock is extremely low at the moment. Uncertainty seems to be an issue.”
