Pottsville creek mouth opened after farms flood

Local News 3

A PRIVATE CREMATION

By Jo Kennett

THE MOOBALL Creek mouth at Pottsville was opened by Tweed Shire Council, using earthmoving equipment, on Tuesday, October 16, after deteriorating water quality saw the creek closed for swimming and canals and farms began to flood, as the creek backed up after days of rain. A bulldozer and excavator were on the beach at 6am and began work on the low tide to remove the sand siltation from the estuary mouth, in front of a growing and very happy crowd of locals. Council had been waiting on State Government approval and Council Unit Coordinator of Natural Resource Management, Jane Lofthouse, was on the beach as work commenced and told The Weekly that Council had received the relevant approvals with the help of NSW Fisheries on Monday night. “The difference this time to previous openings of the creek mouth was the large volume of sand in front of the mouth of the creek and the low level of water in the creek,” Ms Lofthouse said. “This meant that early opening of the creek may not have been successful and there was a serious risk of a fish kill. “NSW Fisheries advocate minimal intervention in these events to ensure that tidal flow can be reinstated successfully. “Due to the persistent rain the decision was made to artificially open the creek mouth to reduce water levels and restore tidal flow to the estuary.” Locals had planned to take matters into their own hands on Sunday, October 14, with over a hundred people filling the car park, shovels in hand, for what they dubbed The Big Dig, but they were greeted by NSW Fisheries employees who warned they would be issued with large fines if they started digging. Councillor Chris Cherry was at the beach as work commenced and said Council could have received the same fine that residents were threatened with

if work had commenced without State Government approvals. “Council has waited for the approvals and has tried to time it right with the tide and they are doing exactly the right thing now,” Cr Cherry said. “It’s fantastic - they have been working since really early this morning and hopefully they can get it deep enough to stay open. “There’s nothing like working with an audience - they really don’t want to bog it.” Farmer, Colin Foyster, who lost ten-of-thousands-of-dollars worth of watermelons as the creek backed up at Wooyung, was also on hand as work began. “It’s nice to see things progressing finally, but Council clearly needs to have systems in place where they can overcome these problems as soon as they see them,” Mr Foyster said. “They may say that this is a natural occurrence, but we’ve modified the

whole creek and town and farming systems, and this is clearly due to a lack of maintenance on the seawall (which collapsed some time ago) and the siltation of the creek.” Mr Foyster said he thought the other eight hectares of watermelons which were also under threat could be damaged beyond repair as well. “It will probably take two days for the water to drain away and with some sunshine the field will dry out once the water table drops,” he said. “It’s the sugar cane crops as well, they are being affected and every day is critical - once it’s been underwater for three or four days it’s majorly affected and there are lots of fields out there in that situation - they have been under since Saturday. “That will be five days by the time the water drains away so it’s had the effect of a major flood.” Read more on page 5.

ATTORNEY GENERAL Mark Speakman, Member for Lismore Thomas George and Nationals Candidate for Lismore Austin Curtin, have sought to reassure residents there are “no plans to close the Murwillumbah Courthouse registry”. During a visit to the Lismore electorate, Mr Speakman reconfirmed Murwillumbah Courthouse will remain open and continue to deliver registry services to the Tweed, following Labor’s claims that services were to be reduced.

Mr George said Labor needs to stop fear mongering and playing politics with the community’s safety. “The Attorney General has visited the electorate and restated the NSW Government’s commitment to providing registry services at Murwillumbah Courthouse,” he said. “Murwillumbah Courthouse normally sits on the fourth Tuesday and Friday of the month, however, throughout 2018 we’ve seen additional dates added by the Chief Magistrate to manage Local and Children’s Court matters.” Nationals Candidate for Lismore, Austin Curtin, said keeping essential

services like the courthouse and hospital in Murwillumbah were his number one priority. “Murwillumbah is the heart of the Tweed and its residents should not have to drive or commute to Tweed Heads to access services that are already being delivered on their door step,” he said. “The average clearance rate at Murwillumbah for January to May 2018 was approximately 103 per cent, and I will ensure registry staff and operating hours are maintained so that remains the case into the future.” Local Court lists and sittings are a matter for the Chief Magistrate.

Letter of the Week

Hold your horses Cr Polglase

Before casting aspersions about “truth and transparency” and accusing fellow councillors of political lies (The Weekly, October 11) Cr Warren Polglase would do well to remember that the Council of which he was mayor was subject to a public inquiry over exactly those issues. Jeremy Cornford, Kingscliff

*Redeemable for 1 month from publication date

Cr Ron Cooper seeks to set the record straight on hospital

Cr Polglase (Weekly 11/10/18) every statement you claimed to be wrong was based on published documentation or the words of local MP Geoff Provest and Health Minister Brad Hazzard. Firstly, the closure of the Tweed Hospital in 2023 is straight from the mouth of the Minister for Health, and published on two of his websites. Secondly, the public/private partnership ambitions of the State Government have been realised at their most recent hospital project – the Northern Beaches Hospital at Frenchs Forest. Because construction tendering is preceding a development application, there is no way to know that this policy won’t be tried on the Tweed. Thirdly, both you and I know that plans and documentation exist showing that if the existing hospital was expanded, no private property nor the bowls club would need to be compulsorily acquired. These are the only issues you raised. The rest was confected offence and a rant in support of your political and speculator mates. In this case, it is you who has misled the public not only on these three issues, but on my honesty in disclosing them. Perhaps you should take a good hard look at yourself and give thought to withdrawing your trumped up allegations. It was a shameful attempt to defend the indefensible – the unnecessary sacrifice of the high quality, red soil farmlands – the destruction of the magnificent rural vista that is the entrance to Kingscliff and the Tweed Coast – the imposition of Regional City status on Kingscliff with high rise not far behind. Tweed Heads and its high rise buildings had already been declared the Tweed’s Regional City. Cr Ron Cooper, Kingscliff

In response to Cr Polglase’s attack on Cr Cooper (TVW 11/10/18) for providing information to the community regarding the proposed relocation of The Tweed Hospital to the Cudgen State Significant Farmland (SSF) and his claims of lies for a political agenda, he needs to take a long hard look in the mirror. His letter shows a real desperation by the local Nats to sell the long fight to rezone the SSF for development. I urge Cr Polglase to practice what he preaches and take a leaf out of Cr Cooper’s book and be “truthful, transparent, and by-the-book”, rather than preach the directive of the political masters’ spin (that does not pass the test) and take the time to review the documents as we the people do. Contrary to Cr Polgase’s claims the announcement of the relocation of The Tweed Hospital to the Cudgen SSF in April was with zero consultation and the undertaking of such after the fact is simply a sham, and there is yet to be any expert opinion or stringent modelling sighted. Government documents now confirm “existing hospital services provided at The Tweed Hospital will transfer to the new hospital once it is completed”, and the proposed relocation of The Tweed Hospital to Cudgen is to be part of the network of hospitals across our region being Byron Central, Murwillumbah District and John Flynn (private, Tugun Qld) hospitals, that is no Tweed Hospital. The Minister’s recent letter to Council lets the cat out of the bag and reaffirms the community’s concern of much more development on the Cudgen SSF with the loss of those irreplaceable lands forever and risk of the Kingscliff coastal village suddenly becoming a regional city and Tweed Heads losing its longterm strategic planning city status. As for the private-public matter the community are being kept in the dark. But what we do know is the governments addiction to privatisation and the fact a component of the new Byron Hospital went out for tender for private services. And the new Maitland Hospital for public/private

partnership was scrapped early this year after the backlash over plans to enlist the private sector, and has been the case for other hospitals. So Cr Cooper’s concern is well founded. Contrary to Cr Polgase’s claims the endorsed ‘Tweed Heads Hospital Redevelopment Master Plan’ (MP) does not include any acquisition of homes or the bowling club and the MP could be further enhanced without such acquisitions. Thus, the political spin is far beneath the standard of what our community should accept and indeed are entitled to nothing less than honesty and transparency from elected representatives. Lindy Smith, Tweed Heads

We are owed transparency

On Wednesday, October 4, I had the misfortune to witness the irresponsible stance taken by four of our councillors on the issue of water extraction and the increase of B-double trucks on unsuitable country roads. Hundreds of concerned residents attended the Public Access meeting regarding the proposed rescission motion on these issues and several citizens spoke eloquently and honestly about the effects on residents if the rescission motion was not passed. Matters addressed included safety, amenity and road maintenance, quite apart from the possible effects on Rowlands Creek and the flow on implications for people who rely on it. Rowlands Creek residents are concerned that it won’t be safe to ride horses or bicycles on their hitherto peaceful road, and having such huge trucks thunder past Uki school raises both safety and noise issues. It appears that there is currently no policing on either the number of truck journeys or the speed that the trucks go. Neither Rowlands Creek Road nor Kyogle Road are designed for such large vehicles and as Cr Ron Cooper pointed out: while the water extractor will have to pay to bring Rowlands Creek Road up to scratch initially, he won’t have to maintain it. Maintenance will come out of our rates. So, this issue affects every single rate payer in the shire no matter where in the shire you live. You will find your rates dollars paying for damage caused by big trucks benefitting private enterprise. And what’s more - a private enterprise that will enrich the proprietor only, very few locals will gain employment, and the trucks have Queensland number plates so clearly they’re not local either.

What really distressed me was that of the four councillors who voted against the rescission motion only one bothered to give any reason. Cr Byrne explained that it was a bit like climate change - the jury is out so you can’t let it hold you back. Embarrassing - does that mean that we’re expected to throw caution to the winds and just hope for the best? The other three said nothing. One of them didn’t even bother arriving until halfway through the public submissions. So what are their reasons? I have heard many people view their actions with great suspicion and perhaps these suspicions could be allayed if the people in the shire were told why they voted as they did. As our councillors surely they owe us transparency. Councillors Milne, Cherry and Cooper all made intelligent and informed comments, and all three believe that more expert information is required before a final decision is made. Surely that’s the rational approach. Jandra Faranda, Midginbil

Am I alone in the ridiculous and sickening irony of water?

Like many in the community, I am still trying to come to terms with the approval of the water extraction at Rowlands Creek Road, Uki. As I try to reconcile the variety of legal, political, financial, and personal factors at play, I read with absolute astonishment that Tweed Shire Council is flagging concern about water security, proudly accepting State Government grants for studies to be conducted and opening up a tender process for building a pipeline to South East Queensland to provide alternative access to water. Whilst I don’t at all disagree with the serious need for all levels of government to be proactively pursuing strategies for such an important issue, am I the only one who sees the ridiculousness and somewhat sickening irony that this is the same council allowing the extraction of our groundwater and its transport (on our roads) across the border, to the plastic bottling plant, for personal and corporate profit? Judith Magee, Uki

Hospital needs to consider traffic plan for future use

With all the discussions about the new Kingscliff hospital site there has been very little information about any traffic plan. The Tweed Hospital has four roads leading to it: Florence Street, Brett Street, Powell Street and Keith Compton Drive.

On top of that the hospital has vehicle access on all four sides. Then we come to the Kingscliff hospital which will be almost twice the size of The Tweed Hospital. This hospital will only have one road access, Cudgen Road, which is only a two lane country road. That means every vehicle including visitors, staff, nurses, doctors, day patients, deliveries, emergency services etc will all be using the one road in. Then you have the TAFE across the road with a car park of about 200 spaces using the same road, add all that to the daily traffic flow and it doesn’t matter how many entrances or exits there are every vehicle leaving the hospital will still end up on the one road. This will be a traffic nightmare all day and everyday, and also remember a few years back Geoff Provest wanted paid parking at The Tweed Hospital but backed off due community backlash so what’s the odds on Kingscliff hospital having a paid carpark? Terry James, Kingscliff

Democracy taking a battering

I recently attended a meeting where it was stated that our democracy is broken. That sounds harsh until you look at the negative influences that our country is facing. The stupidity of leaving coal in the ground, a source of energy created by the sun. Other countries are building coal fired power stations in record numbers, thus providing cheap power for its people and for industry but not Australia. The Paris agreement is no good for Australia but it’s pushed by the United Nations. The United Nations is no good for Australia, it once had relevance and purpose, but its been hijacked to push agendas that will take away my rights and yours to just be an Aussie. I heard today that the UN in Switzerland is telling if not demanding that we rehouse all refugees on Nauru in Australia now that’s probably a very good thing if you are a refugee but consider how many lives were saved at sea by our stance on illegal immigration? Our federal politicians are aware of the discontent throughout Australia with the impost of more restrictions, more pressure on our country to do what others want yet little is done to protest. Now I am not sure if our democracy is broken but it is certainly taking a battering.

Wooyung farmers lose crops as Mooball creek backs up A WOOYUNG farmer has lost tens-of-thousands-of-dollars worth of watermelons after his crop was flooded by water backing up from the closure of the Mooball Creek mouth at Pottsville. Colin Foyster had 10 hectares of watermelons, but by Sunday, two hectares were underwater and destroyed, as heavy rain fell in the Mooball Valley from the catchment area, which runs all the way back near Uki. “I’ve been growing watermelons here for 45 years and I’m aware that I grow my crop in a risky area, but normally with this amount of rain it wouldn’t be a problem,” Mr Foyster said. “I’ve been trying to get council to move quicker to clean out the creek I told them I have all the equipment and could do it and they are aware of the situation. “The majority of my crop is still out of the water, but because we have this great dam there at the creek

mouth, with this heavy rain it looks like it will wipe out the entire crop. Mr Foyster said he called the Council emergency number on the weekend, but was told there was no contact person for this issue. “He told me I should register my complaint on the website and hung up, while I was still trying to stress there was no one monitoring the website,” Mr Foyster said. “It’s halfway through Monday and they still haven’t responded.” Mr Foyster said that there were no guarantees and always risks in farming, but farmers didn’t need the added risk the creek closure had caused. “We’ve lost approximately two hectares at this point (Monday, October 15) and we have 10 hectares (25 acres),” he said. “We can get 10 tonnes to an acre and at $500 to $800 a tonne we have already lost $25,000 worth and stand to lose $125,000, and a lot of that money is already spent in growing the crop. “We generally turn over well over $100,000 in one season and

sometimes it can be a lot more if the price is good. “My neighbour has watermelons and rockmelons as well and they are in a similar situation.” Mr Foyster said his family were fifth generation farmers in the area and the creek mouth closing was nothing new. “Prior to the groynes being built, my father and his father were involved in cleaning the creek mouth out when it blocked up - first with horses and later with tractors,” he said. “The groynes are dysfunctional now because the sand dunes have moved east past the end of the groynes. “They were originally built into the ocean. They need to extend the groynes.” Mr Foyster said it was a wake-up call for everyone. “The creek mouth needs to be fixed up,” he said. “They are talking about this massive urban expansion in Pottsville and there are major problems regarding drainage that could easily come back and bite them. “The whole Potty creek is not in its natural state - it’s silted up all the way up - the farmers maintain the drainage of the Mooball Creek ourselves upstream but we don’t have a budget to maintain the tidal section.” Mr Foyster was at the beach to watch the creek being opened on Tuesday, October 16, but thinks most of the crop won’t survive the root system being inundated for so long.

Les Hardy at the inundated canal off Overall Drive, Pottsville

Residents say Council should have acted sooner

Before the Mooball Creek mouth was opened, Les Hardy told The Weekly he had lived in Pottsville for 77 years and seen the Mooball Creek mouth close up before. “It closed up 11 years ago and it closed up before the rock wall was there about 40 years ago,” Mr Hardy, said. 80 years ago, Mr Hardy’s family built the house where the IGA is now situated. He said he fishes in the area every day and knows the beaches and estuaries well. “When you get northerly winds and currents it brings all the sand up on the beach - on the south side of the creek mouth - and that’s why it blocks up,” he said. “It should have been opened for the people down at Wooyung at least because all their farms are flooded. “They stopped everyone swimming in the creek on Friday (October 12) because of the poor water quality.” Mr Hardy took The Weekly to the canals off Overall Drive where the

water was backing up from Mooball Creek. “That’s a seat over there,” Mr Hardy said, pointing out a seat completely underwater. “There’s a boardwalk under there on either side as well, but it’s all under. “People are worried about their houses getting flooded because they won’t get any insurance for it, so a lot of people won’t be getting much sleep, but the creek will go over before that happens.” A couple who live in Edinburgh Court said a lot of people were concerned about rising water levels in the canals. “All the water coming in is fresh from up in the hills and too much fresh water kills the fish,” the man, who didn’t want to be named, said. “In 2005 the creek mouth was opened and we had 10 inches of rain in a week which came up level with the road and killed all the big trevally in the canal because they are saltwater fish. “We’ve lived here for 23 years and we’re not that worried about the house getting flooded but a lot of people are.”

THE Australian government are still providing generous solar rebates that could potentially save you thousands of dollars off your purchase price. Under the Renewable Energy Target Scheme, the solar rebate is set to decrease on December 31st. Based on a 6.6kW system, that’s a difference of approximately $300. That’s a serious saving not to be sneezed at. To make the most of the rebate, and to secure the current STC price, you must have your solar system installed and operational before December 31st. Which would also give you the added benefit of enjoying solar savings by the time summer hits, and along with it the typical summer electricity bill hike. What are STC’s and how can you benefit? In a bid to encourage Australian homes and businesses to make the financially and environmentally sound switch to solar energy, the federal government currently offers an incentive in the form of an STC (small scale technology certificate) rebate. This STC is applied directly to the solar system at the time of installation, meaning your solar provider will organise and claim this for you on your behalf, making it even easier. The rebate is set to decrease exponential every year until 2030. Solar experts recommend adding solar to your roof now before the STC drops, making the most of your solar investment in the long run. Instead of paying for those dreaded electricity bills, put your money towards a solar system where you can enjoy long term savings for years to come. Lock it in with SAE Group The time to act is now, with SAE Group offering a significant price drop on a quality 6.6kW solar bundle. Cut your electricity bills with 24 x 275W Seraphim panels with a 5kW X1 Solax inverter for ONLY $4,495. This really is an incredible price not to be missed. Lock it in before October 31st to ensure you make the most of the government rebate and this price crash special. This 6.6kW system will generate an average 27kW of power each day, based on the Clean Energy Council’s recommendation of 4.2 sunlight hours. If you self-consumed 50% of that amount (which is a lot), based on today’s average electricity tariff of 28c/kW, you could stand to make a saving of $1380 per year. That would mean your system would pay for itself in under 4 years in electricity savings alone, whilst still exporting the remaining 50% back to the grid. That’s a solid investment. SAE Group are a Clean Energy Council Approved Solar retailer, and a Master Electrician Member, committed to raising the bar in the solar industry. From consultation to installation, and after sales service, SAE Group are with you the whole way, and offer a 12-year workmanship warranty with every installation. Lock in this offer today.

A 21-YEAR-OLD Dum Dum man was arrested during a cross border police operation targetting Outlaw Motor Cycle Gangs (OMCGs) on Friday, October 12. The joint operation saw officers from the Tweed Byron Police District, the Criminal Groups Squad’s Strike Force Raptor, Queensland Police, Australian Federal Police and Queensland Corrective Services targetting organised crime gang members and their associates. Police conducted searches for firearms, firearms parts, and ammunition at four properties of OMCG members and their associates subject to Firearm Prohibition Orders. One of the properties was a Dum Dum address, where police allegedly located a quantity of green vegetable matter which police will allege is cannabis, a plant believed to be a cannabis plant, a BB gun, 12 gauge shotgun ammunition, a laser pointer, a set of handcuffs, an air rifle which had been modified with a shortened barrel, a number of seeds believed to be cannabis seeds, a spring loaded flick knife and a black coloured plastic pistol capable of firing projectiles. A 21-year-old man from the Dum Dum property was arrested and taken to the Tweed Heads Police Station where he was charged with firearm and drug offences. He was refused bail and appeared before Tweed Heads Local Court on Saturday, October 13 where he was released on conditional bail, before appearing again on Monday, October 15. Duty Officer for Tweed/Byron Police District, Detective Chief Inspector Luke Arthurs, said police across the region will continue to work closely with Strike Force Raptor to reduce the impact of OMCG activities. “We will continue to conduct highly-visibility and high-impact operations like this to target and disrupt the activities of outlaw motorcycle

gangs and their associates,” Det Insp Arthurs said. “The operation highlights how important it is for us to cooperate with other lawenforcement agencies, such as Queensland Police, to ensure members of these groups who break the law face serious ramifications. “The safety of the community is our priority, and we will not tolerate public acts of violence – or any activity – that puts that safety at risk.” Strike Force Raptor was established by State Crime Command’s Gangs Squad in 2009.

Aggressive man demands drugs A SYDNEY man has been refused bail after threatening staff and allegedly demanding drugs at The Tweed Hospital in the early hours of Thursday, October 11. The 43-year-old Bondi Beach man entered the Emergency Department around 3.40am and demanded medical attention. Police said the man became extremely aggressive towards staff and allegedly demanded he be supplied with drugs. “At the time the male was carrying a skateboard and was pointing it towards hospital security and members of the public,” police said. “Police attended and attempted to speak with him, however, he was extremely aggressive and continued to use offensive language.” The man was placed under arrest and taken to the Tweed Heads Police Station where he continued to be aggressive towards police officers and allegedly kicked a Senior Constable in the leg. He was charged with offensive conduct and assaulting police. He has been refused bail to appear at the Tweed Heads Local Court on December 3.

Cross-border operation targets bikie gangs

A 25-YEAR-OLD Bilambil man has been charged with assaulting police after a violent confrontation in Murwillumbah on Saturday, October 13. Police spotted the man in a vehicle in Church Lane, Murwillumbah, around 12.20pm, where they had cause to speak to him but he provided a false name. Following inquiries it was discovered the man had an outstanding arrest warrant and as he was removed from the vehicle and about to be handcuffed, he attempted to run from police officers.

“Police grabbed hold of the male and he resisted and wrestled violently,” police said. “The male resisted both officers for some time, before he was eventually subdued and handcuffed. “During the incident the male has hit a Senior Constable to the face causing a suspect broken nose.” He was taken to the Tweed Heads Police Station where he was also found to have a NSW driver’s licence that did not belong to him. He was charged with assault occasioning actual bodily harm, assaulting police, resisting police and having goods suspected of being stolen or unlawfully obtained. He was refused bail and appeared before Tweed Heads Local Court on October 14.

Illegal connections found

Murwillumbah Community Centre volunteers (from left) Gary Setchell, Judith Lindsay, Rodney Morrin, Fiona Mengersen and Mervyn Newell help out at the refreshment table at the official re-opening of Nullum House last Wednesday.

Community welcomes return of Nullum House “Nullum House is more than just a building. It is a home to those who don’t have one, a meal for those who are hungry, a family for people who have none, a shoulder to cry on when everything gets too much and to laugh when you thought you never would again. You have given us back more than just a building, you have given us a place to belong.”

These were the heartfelt words from the community shared at the reopening of Nullum House last week following its repair and refurbishment in the wake of the March 2017 flood. Nullum House was severely damaged in the flood and it was recommended that the building be demolished. But Council, with the backing of its tenant the not-for-profit Murwillumbah Community Centre Inc, rejected that recommendation and instead gutted and refurbished the building at a cost of $100,000. The building is now flood resilient and more vandal proof. The external blockwalls have been waterproofed to about one

metre above ground level; steel security screens have been fitted and the eaves have been lined with Colorbond. On the inside, a more open-plan has been adopted with fewer internal walls, tiles have replaced carpets and a stainless steel kitchen and benches have replaced the timber fitout. Electrical circuits have been lifted above likely inundation levels. Nullum House operates as a Social Inclusion Centre, providing a range of services to the homeless, lonely and struggling members of the community. It floods even in small events but this fitout will allow it to be hosed out and back in operation quickly after any future inundation. Over the past 12 years, the Murwillumbah Community Centre has grown from a staff of two to now having 24 staff and volunteers providing lunch twice a week, shower and laundry services, counselling services, art and music therapy and connections to other support services. Three evenings a week the Combined Churches run a soup kitchen from Nullum House. The Centre is open Monday to Thursday from 8.30am to 2.30pm and everyone is welcome.

Council is reminding anyone building a home that the first step to connecting to the town water supply is to apply to Council for that connection and a Council water meter. Council charges a standard fee of $510 to connect to its water supply for which Council puts in a standard 20mm connection and water meter and lodges all the appropriate documentation for billing. The reminder to apply first comes after several illegal connections were found by water meter readers. Connecting to the water supply without a Council water meter is illegal. Make sure that your builder and plumber understand this. “We read every meter once a quarter so tend to discover illegal connections fairly quickly,” Connections Engineer Elizabeth Seidl said. “While an unauthorised connection to the town water supply equates to water theft, Council is equally concerned that all connections are standardised and compliant for the ongoing management and maintenance of our water supply. “Any illegal connection may prove to be unsafe for our workers or pose a health risk to the connected household. “While we do have the power under the Local Government Act to fine property owners and builders who illegally tap into our supply, this is a last resort. We prefer to encourage people to do the right thing,” she said. For information on water connections, visit www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/ConnectDisconnect or call Council on (02) 6670 2400.

Green bins are good, yellow bins could be better

Council is carrying out audits of household bins to give personalised feedback so we can all improve our recycling habits.

Thank you to the Tweed community for your efforts to recycle garden waste and food scraps in the green organics bin, saving the equivalent of 43 collection truck loads each month from going into landfill. Correct items placed in the green bin have also been very high. Previous independent audits have shown that contamination in Tweed’s green bin is low compared to other services across the country – so well done and please keep this going. What is of concern however is the high amount of incorrect items being placed in the yellow bin, particularly as China has stopped taking recycling imports from Australia and other countries around the world. Previously, China was taking significant quantities of Australia’s recycled plastic and paper. We need to now create more local markets for this recycled material and the most economical way for this to happen is for us all to ensure we are not contaminating the yellow bin with incorrect and dirty items (i.e. with food waste and liquids still in the containers). In the coming months, Council will be undertaking audits of household bins to give personalised feedback which allows us all to improve our recycling practices and the contents of our yellow (and green bins). A Council officer may inspect your bin by way of a simple lift of the lid for a quick visual inspection of its contents. If your bin has been visited, an officer will leave a post card in your mail box confirming that we have been, and let you know how you are going.

Living and Loving the Tweed

Council’s contractors will also be tagging bins that have incorrect items in them. If the incorrect item is identified before servicing, the bin will be left and the contractor will only return and service the bin once the incorrect items have been removed. If the incorrect item is identified during servicing, the camera inside the hopper of the truck will take a photo. Council will then contact and send information to residents to follow up. You can help by knowing what goes in each bin and by keeping incorrect items out of your yellow and green bins. Too many incorrect items placed in a bin makes it more difficult to create a reusable quality product and may lead to whole loads having to be dumped into landfill. So please rinse out those bottles, cans and containers before putting them in the yellow bin and make sure food scraps and garden clippings are going into your green bin. Please do not put plastic, biodegradable or degradable bags into the yellow or green bins as these contaminate both of these recyclable materials. In the upcoming months, the councils in the Northern Rivers will also have a collaborative recycling campaign to further assist residents in all seven council areas. Keep an eye on the Tweed Link or follow Tweed Shire Council’s Facebook page for updates. You can find a complete listing of what goes in each bin as well as hints and summer bin tips at www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/Waste. Contact us on (02) 6670 2400 or email waste@tweed.nsw.gov.au for more information.

Small Grants Program Tweed farmers can apply for grants of up to $4,000 to help fund on-ground projects through Council’s new Sustainable Agriculture Small Grants Program. These could include best practice farming methods that lead to improved water quality, soil health and biodiversity outcomes. Council’s Program Leader Sustainable Agriculture Eli Szandala said farmers around the globe are realising that through greater implementation of best practice land management, new innovative farming practices or even revival of old (pre-industrial) farming methods, they can significantly improve the quality of their land. “This in turn leads to more viable and productive farms and associated benefits for the environment and the wider community,” Mr Szandala said. “Unfortunately however, most of our farmers are doing it tough, which makes starting new projects difficult. These grants can provide the incentive for our food producers to start a small project which can ultimately lead to big changes over time. “We’ve already heard about some fantastic project ideas and encourage all producers in the Tweed to consider their opportunities by applying for a grant,” he said. The new program complements Council’s existing River Health Grants and Biodiversity Grants Programs and provides opportunities to work closely with our farmers to achieve positive environmental and community outcomes. Applications close at 4pm on Friday 26 October 2018 and successful projects are expected to have grant funding expended by 30 June 2019. For more information and to apply visit www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/ agriculture or contact the Program Leader – Sustainable Agriculture on eszandala@tweed.nsw.gov.au or by calling Council on (02) 6670 2400.

At the time of going to press on Monday, sand was still blocking the mouth of Mooball Creek at Pottsville, stopping tidal flow. Swimming is not advisable in this creek this week nor in any coastal creek following heavy rain, due to urban and rural run-off. Council has been monitoring the situation closely and is seeking the necessary State Government approvals to take action to clear the blockage with machinery. At the time of going to press, there was concern that if not done properly and under the right conditions, opening up the creek with machinery could make matters worse. Good quality water drained out of the lower estuary would be replaced by lower quality water presently sitting in the upper estuary and cane drains of Wooyung. This water is lower in dissolved oxygen and has a lower pH, and potentially higher bacteria levels.

Hospital petition submitted to parliament as Minister calls meeting THE RELOCATE Team is preparing to host another peaceful rally at the Cudgen Leagues Club on Saturday, October 20, from 10am, following a trip to Sydney where the group presented a petition to the Labor Opposition Leader. Relocate Team members Hayley and James Paddon handed over a “Save Cudgen Farmland” petition to NSW Opposition Labor Leader Luke Foley for lodgement in the NSW Parliament. Mrs Paddon said community unrest over a lack of consultation and transparency in the Government’s decision to relocate the Tweed Valley Hospital to State Significant Farmlands at Cudgen reached a milestone this week. “One 8,000 signature petition was presented to the Lower House and one 800 signature petition was presented to the Upper House NSW Parliament on Tuesday, with a rally of some hundreds of community members to be held this Saturday, October 20, at 10am at Cudgen Leagues Club,” Mrs Paddon said. “All members of the public are invited to send a strong message to the Government.” Mrs Paddon said the group are standing up for the land and for their community. “We don’t want our rich farmlands to be concreted over and we don’t want Kingscliff to become a city,” she said. “You’d expect the Government, our elected representatives to take notice.

“Geoff Provest has been invited and it remains to be seen if he will step forward to listen to our concerns.” Mrs Paddon said a recent rally of more than 150 residents took place outside Geoff Provest’s office. “But Mr Provest refused to come out of his office to speak with the community,” she said. “Mr Provest needs to stop hiding behind other politicians and speak to his constituents, you cannot be happy to cut the ribbon on the day of the announcement on April 4 and then shrug all responsibility on the issue, with no further discussion with the outer community.” Mr Provest said he has recently contacted Health Minister Brad Hazzard’s office in a bid to secure a meeting with members of the Relocate Team. Mr Provest said he believed it was important for the group to be able to meet with Minister Hazzard to fully understand the government’s position on the new hospital site. “I know there are a number of people unhappy with the chosen site, especially with the amount of misleading statements that have been put out in relation to it, which is why I think it is important for a representative from the group to meet with the Minister,” Mr Provest said. “We need to get on with the job of building this life saving hospital, which is why it is important to move forward as a community so that we can celebrate the new facility together.” An invitation was sent to Mrs Paddon to meet with the minister on Thursday, October 18, but she

While Australia has been falling behind in all things Vincent Selleck renewable, Electric Vechicles (EV's) have been taking over the world. This may change suddenly because in less than 18 months time you may be able to buy an Australian-made electric car from Swedish company Uniti, with a 350km range and priced at a very attractive $20,000. Currently most EV's on the market here are $50k and up, but when you consider the costs of fuel, engine maintenance and servicing and other ongoing costs of owning petrol and diesel cars, EV's are still much cheaper to own and run. So why is Australia the neglected backwater of the EV world? EV's normally attract incentives like reduced registration costs, rebates and subsidies, but in Australia there are no incentives and expensive EV's like Teslas also attract a luxury car tax of 33%. The problem is that Government depends on fuel excises and massive political donations from the oil, coal and gas lobbies. It's all about the money. There is also a shortage of recharge stations which contributes to range anxiety for EV owners. That is about to change with Chargepoint announcing the rollout of another 2.5 million recharge stations worldwide with a strong presence in Australia. Major car manufacturers are also building more and more EV models and competition is hot. So, how can you use solar power for charging EV's and prepare for your new electric car? One of the best things you can do is get as many solar panels on your roof now, while there are still rebates available to cover about 40% of the cost. EV's use a lot of power, so the more you can produce the better. We also install home charging stations and couple batteries for the home with batteries in the cars.

had already arranged to fly back to the Gold Coast. “I was extremely disappointed that I was unable to meet with Minister Hazzard to discuss this further,” Mrs Paddon said. “Minister Hazzard suggested October 18 this week, however, I was unable to change my flights back to the Gold Coast and the costs were high due to the Indy 600.” Mrs Paddon also criticised Minister Hazzard’s response from the community meeting that was held on June 14 at the Tweed Civic Centre. “Minister Hazzard had very little interest in the community’s concerns or opinions at all and chose not to answer many of the questions that were put forward and asked by concerned community members,” she said. “Mr Hazzard’s response to why the redevelopment of the Tweeds Heads Hospital site was changed after such a long extensive redevelopment master plan had been completed from 2011, which was ready to go ahead and started until the middle of last year and his very answer was “because I changed my mind” with no consideration at all for the people that live in this area or reside around the currant hospital site. “It’s important for the group to have a meeting with the minister to fully understand the government’s position.” Mrs Paddon said the Relocate Team and community understand fully what the government’s position is. “The issue is that the government refuses to listen, acknowledge or understand the communities’

position you know the people who live in this area and the people’s lives that it will affect the most considering they are the ones who we elected to represent us,” she said. “The power of the people is greater than the people in power.” Meanwhile, Geoff Provest MP has announced that preparations are well underway for the new Tweed Valley Hospital, with the announcement of the preliminary works tender for the hospital site. Mr Provest said once ownership of the site is transferred - which is currently underway - Health Infrastructure will undertake several tasks to prepare the site. Dr Damian Licari, Principal Consultant Environment at G re e n c ap, t h e i n d e p e n d e n t ecological consultants for the project, said preliminary works will reduce the amount of sediment and other pollutants that currently wash into the environmental area.

“That will help improve the water quality for this important wildlife habitat,” Dr Licari said. The preliminary works will also include site establishment, removal of existing buildings and remediation of asbestos-contaminated land. Detailed on-site investigations including geotechnical drilling to inform the detailed design of site infrastructure. External roadworks, including intersection upgrades, are also being planned and will be undertaken in conjunction with Tweed Shire Council and Roads and Maritime S e r v i c e s t o a dd re s s s eve ra l community concerns such as the capacity of the Tweed Coast Road/ Cudgen Road intersection and the safety of the Cudgen Road/Turnock Street roundabout.

Unsafe staffing claims at Bupa Aged Care Pottsville By Jonathon Howard

MEMBERS OF the NSW Nurses and Midwives’ Association (NSWNMA) continue to express disappointment with what they say are “unsafe staffing levels” at the Bupa Aged Care Pottsville Beach facility, as the association continues to apply pressure for mandated aged care ratios. In a statement to The Weekly, a spokesperson fo r t h e N S W N M A s a i d t h at B u p a management has “not implemented any of the resolves put forward by the NSW Nurses and Midwives’ Association (NSWNMA) Bupa Pottsville branch”. “Particularly from a Work Health and Safety perspective,” the NSWNMA spokesperson said. The comments followed a recent walkout by Bupa Pottsville staff, who called on their employer to address their concerns. “Both members and the NSWNMA have raised significant concerns around unsafe staffing levels and increased workloads,” the statement read. “Bupa also continues to have members work in isolation in the dementia unit without evidence of safe systems of work in place. “The NSWNMA is urging Bupa to make the matters raised a priority and address them as a matter of urgency. “The NSWNMA is part of a national campaign calling for mandated ratios in aged care to address widespread staffing issues across the sector.” The Weekly spoke with Bupa head office and a spokesperson said the company welcomes

conversations with employees around improving the delivery of care. “We have looked into and responded to the NSWNMA’s claims and invited their further input,” the Bupa spokesperson said. “We always welcome conversations with our employees on how we can improve the way we deliver care to our residents and address any concerns they may have.” The Bupa spokesperson said staffing levels are rostered around the needs of residents, “and we have a registered nurse available 24/7”. “We work in partnership with residents, their relatives and other health professionals ranging from physiotherapists, to dentists and GPs,” the Bupa spokesperson said. “Our employees are provided with training which is appropriate to their role to ensure our residents continue to receive care from employees who have the skills and knowledge to deliver the best care possible. “Allowing employees to have better awareness of their surroundings is an important factor in reducing occupational risk while ensuring the safety of our residents and employees. “As such, we’re taking a whole of organisation approach to that by looking at ways we can improve safety through efficient design and floor layouts, training and implementing safety devices like duress alarms. “We’ve supported the announcement of a royal commission into aged care and are keen to see it also include a focus on supporting and growing the aged care workforce and meet the funding needs of the sector so Australia as whole is able to meet the health and care needs of our ageing population.”

Tweed Marine Centre opens

THE WORLD-CLASS Tweed Heads Marine Centre was officially opened on Friday, October 12, bolstering water safety operations across the Tweed’s waterways and centralising water services. The two-storey centre was officially opened by Minister for Roads, Maritime and Freight Melinda Pavey, along with Member for Tweed Geoff Provest. Minister Pavey said the new centre would provide free-flowing collaboration, improved information sharing, greater coordination and faster response times. “The Tweed is a high-volume waterway that caters for a variety of recreational activities as well as commercial fishing and charter fleets,” he said. “Sharing the one location provides the boating community with better customer service and safety reassurance. “The facility is the new home for safety officers from Roads and Maritime Services, NSW Police Force Marine Area Command and inspectors from the Department of Primary Industry Fisheries. “Following a trial in 2016 involving officers from each agency, we saw benefits of increased compliance capability in the area and increased offshore patrols between Byron Bay and Tweed due to additional available officers and vessels.”

Key features of the new centre include open plan workspaces, meeting rooms, interview rooms, seized evidence room, secure weapons room, a boat ramp and two jetties. The site also features a new fuel bowser allowing safe refueling in situ, rather than using handheld jerry cans. A total of 15 staff, previously divided between Tweed Heads and Coffs Harbour will now be under the same roof. Each agency will retain their respective vessels and there will be no reduction in numbers. Member for Tweed Geoff Provest welcomed the new centre, saying the Tweed community would benefit from a more coordinated approach between the agencies. “This area has seen significant increases in boating patronage in recent years, having a facility that encourages these agencies to work together, will deliver improved services on our waterways, something the community has been asking for some time,” Mr Provest said. “A regional education and compliance campaign aimed at introducing the joint approach to waterway users will be carried out later this month.” “Roads and Maritime Services will provide the community with details in advance of this operation once they have been finalised.”

Reforms devastating Tweed fishing industry By Jo Kennett

TWEED fishermen are calling for an inquiry into the Department of Primary Industries (DPI) Fisheries management over the latest industry reforms, after Luke Foley said NSW Labor would hold an inquiry into the industry if elected. Kevin Solway operates prawn trawler, the Sundown Karina, out of Tweed Heads Wharf and told The Weekly that the legislation, which will be implemented in May next year, has made it virtually impossible for him and other trawler owners to operate. “I’ve sold my licence because the new legislation makes it impossible to work,” Mr Solway said. “We would have to sacrifice a night’s work in NSW to work in Qld and you have to report your catch two hours before you cross the border, which makes it virtually impossible to work. “Now I will have to leave NSW for six months and fish in north and central Queensland instead, which is a whole disruption of my business and way of life. It’s something that I certainly didn’t want to do but it’s been forced on me.” Mr Solway said that the reforms have been going on for 34 years and it was still the same people in charge in the DPI Fisheries Management. “ T h e L i b e r a l a n d L ab o r government sling mud at each other and have inquiry after inquiry and it’s cost millions, but the blokes in Fisheries Management causing the problems are still in charge,” he said.

“What they need is an inquiry into the DPI - the senior management is incompetent, and they’ve squandered millions and millions of dollars and the consumers and fishermen of NSW are the big losers.” Richard Brown from Markwell Fisheries told The Weekly that the DPI reform is to all fisheries in NSW. “Basically the government has increased the amount of shares they required to keep fishing,” Mr Brown said. “Fishers were forced to participate in a share trading scheme when they had no idea of the price they would be paying for shares, with DPI using a secretive algorithm to decide who purchased these shares and who didn’t, creating a false economy by inflating share prices.” Mr Brown said another issue of major concern was that prior to this trading scheme, a number of fishermen who previously sat on committees advising DPI, managed to secure fishing businesses at extremely favourable prices from fishers who were unaware of the drastic changes the DPI had planned for industry. Subsequently, these fishers now own the majority holdings in a variety of fisheries throughout the state. “It’s not only trawlers, it’s beach hauling, crabbing, line fishing, every fishery is affected.” Mr Brown said that the share prices differed significantly for the inshore and offshore sectors (inshore they were going around $5 compared to $500 plus offshore)

but the government was going to amalgamate those shares later on. “Local fishermen like Kev could have done what fishers with prior knowledge did and bought up inshore shares,” Mr Brown said. “Each time you buy blocks of shares you get access to more nights. “In Kev’s situation now, he is going to lose around 70 nights a year because there weren’t enough shares available, or if there were any he couldn’t have afforded them.” Mr Brown said the public needed to understand that the vessel and many others will be lost from the local port. “Kev and other fishermen have to move to Qld or get out of the industry so there will be limited access to fresh local seafood which will force prices up as well,” he said. “There are less trawlers working the east coast than ever before, so it’s not about sustainability. “People don’t understand that we have a completely environmentallysustainable industry.”

Tweed fishermen face the added disadvantage of being on the border. “Kev has to poll in on a NSW DPI Fisheries phone app to let the department know he is going to work and if he crosses the imaginary border of Qld/NSW during a night’s work - and he may not be aware if he’s out sorting prawns that he has crossed the border - the Qld Vessel Monitoring System (satellite) will let Fisheries know and he will lose a night’s work in Qld as well losing the night in NSW,” he said. “Qld Fisheries are also going through the ongoing process to contain and control white spot disease and uncooked product can’t be taken out of Qld due to a control zone.” Mr Brown said the problem will lead to a lack of local supply and force local retailers to use imported product from countries overseas that caused the white spot breakout in the first place. “Kev and the majority of fishers haven’t received tangible support

-I’ve spoken directly to the minister Niall Blair and he is unmoved by industry’s plight,” Mr Brown said. “We’ve been to ICAC, the NSW Ombudsman, we’ve battled through court cases, all to no avail.” Mr Brown said that NSW had gone from having 4,000 commercial fishermen in the 1980s to less than 800 today. “It’s a process that the department has pushed and it was originally promoted under the guise of making the NSW fishing industry more financially viable and offering security, where in reality it is causing businesses to close, fishermen’s livelihoods and mental health to be seriously affected and also is severely restricting the NSW public to access fresh local seafood.” The Weekly contacted NSW Minister for Primary Industries Niall Blair for comment, who was unable to respond before the print deadline.

Mr Eagle said that people still seemed to have money to spend. “When you get Sydney or Melbourne or Brisbane people they always seem to have money in their pockets so that helps.” Owner of Wazza’s Bait and Tackle at Pottsville Warren Kussrow said that his business had been down around 30 per cent from normal - not holiday - trade, and badly affected by the creek mouth closure. “It’s been shocking especially as the water has become stagnant,” he said. “It’s not good for swimming or fishing or any recreational activity and everybody in Pottsville is in the same boat. “We normally only do really well in the Qld holidays, not so much in NSW holidays.” Warren said Council should have opened the creek mouth earlier. “The number of complaints I’ve had from people in the caravan park is unbelievable,” he said. “Warren Polglase was in the other day asking about it. “I told him we have to extend the wall another 20 foot (six metres) out.” A Kingscliff clothing retailer said that their holiday trade had been “pretty good” “It picked up a bit before the holidays which was good,” the owner said “It was terrible a few months ago so that’s been great. “It’s been pretty steady business the whole way through and NSW school holidays were good as well. “A lot of other businesses in Kingscliff didn’t do so well though.”

WILD WEATHER on the Tweed Coast has significantly impacted school holiday trade for some local businesses. Amy Dennis, who works at Hastings Point General Store, said that the weather had caused a downturn in the normally thriving business. “We had one massive family camping at the headland who kept us busy the first week, but it wasn’t as busy as the school holidays normally are,” she said. “On the long weekend it was flat out insanely busy - but it was pretty average the last week of NSW holidays. Once the weather got really bad it quietened down a lot. “Some of the staff didn’t even work Sunday because it was so quiet, as a lot of people packed up earlier than they normally do to go home.” Cabarita Surf Shop owner Col Eagle said the weather had really affected his trade. “It wasn’t good beach weather, which really spoilt things,” he said. “I don’t think it was as good as the last holidays. “There was a little kick from the Queenslanders, which we really needed after a long winter - but the weather really spoilt the NSW school holidays.” Mr Eagle said that the high price of rentals, which has affected Tweed residential properties, had also impacted commercial rentals. “The rents have become really high, they are unrealistically high actually,” he said. “Business isn’t as good generally as it has been in the past - online shopping has had a huge impact as well.”

Expect surprises for Murwillumbah Show

EXCITEMENT IS building for the M u r w i l l u m b a h S h ow n ex t m o n t h (November 2-3) with several new pavilion categories, competitions, a dunk tank and an Australian first competition to keep locals and visitors entertained. The Murwillumbah Show is one of the longest continuously running agricultural shows in Australia and since its inception in 1898, has celebrated the best local agriculture and produce. The Tweed River Agricultural Society has this year ramped up their efforts to keep locals and visitors entertained by announcing a range of exciting new exhibitions. Society treasurer Ralph Kraemer said the introduction of the new honey pavilion was a great step for the show. “We’re including a competition this year for our local honey producers, which is a great way for people to find out more about how to produce their own honey,” he said. “The honey competition will include entries from the Gold Coast and Northern NSW.” There’s plenty of other surprises this year including a dunk tank with local police officers signing up to take part. “This is a great new addition to the show and punters can have their shot at dunking a local police officer, all in the name of good fun with funds raised going to a local charity and school,” Mr Kraemer said. Another new additional, and possibly Australian first, is the sweet potato throwing competition. “This is the chance for someone to be crowned the first Australian champion sweet potato thrower,” Mr Kraemer said. Another new addition this year is Troppo Bob the Roving Magician, who will cruise around the showgrounds entertaining locals and visitors.

Residents and showgoers can also expect all their favourite displays, show rides and exhibitions with the addition of a new pavilion display, Chutney, Chooks and Champions: Stories from the Show, presented by the Tweed Regional Museum. Chutney, Chooks and Champions organiser Erika Taylor said since the nineteenth century, Australia’s agricultural shows have provided us with opportunities to reflect on the values and aspirations of our communities. “Chutney, Chooks and Champions: Stories from the Show celebrates the stories behind the show, and the people that have made it what it is today,” she said. “Explore the history of the Tweed Agricultural Show, including photographs, prizes, ribbons and trophies from the early 1900s. “Watch fascinating video stories about the farmers, judges, bakers, and sideshow alley showmen that reveal the show as an event held close to the heart of the local community. “As part of the exhibition the Museum has sponsored a new section at the show in 2018. “The new fermentation section will be held in the Pavilion and includes Kombucha, Sauerkraut, and Kim Chi. “The Museum has been running demonstration workshops in fermentation over the past six months to show the community how easy and delicious fermenting at home can be.” To enter any of the pavillion competitions visit the Murwillumbah Show: www. murwillumbahshow.com.au Make sure you pick up your copy of The Weekly next week (October 25) for everything you need to know about the 118th Murwillumbah Show in our special Murwillumbah Show Feature.

Drought-stricken farmers get a hand from Tweed but more needed By Jo Kennett

DROUGHT VOLUNTEERS are asking for help with drought relief funding and extra hands, after their last trip out west with supplies for drought-stricken farmers left the group's coffers empty. Tr a c y L aw h e a d s t h e Murwillumbah District Supporting Aussie Farmers who went with M u r w i l l u m b a h Ro t a r y A M members and truck drivers to Mingoola, near Tenterfield, on Saturday, October 12, with a range of supplies that they distributed to farming families. “Farmers were blown away, they couldn’t believe the generosity of people,” Tracy said. “They were very humbled and so grateful. “It was such an emotional day, but anything I say can’t even touch on how desperate the situation is out there - you have to see it to believe how bad things still are.” Tracy said that prior to the group's visit, the farming families had no help at all. “These are proud, hard-working people who would never put their hand out for anything,” she said. “The government is doing nothing - nobody qualifies for help. “It’s just devastating and it’s been really hard trying to hold the tears back.” Tracy said that although the Tweed has received welcome rain in the past week, they have had hardly any out west. “Even the kangaroos are so skinny,” she said.

“If I could take everyone out there to see for themselves we wouldn’t have to ask for help - we’d be flooded with donations. “Extra families turned up and it was just heartbreaking.” Tracy said the group had no funds left and were also looking for volunteers to help out. “There are only six of us doing it at the moment and it’s exhausting, but we want to keep going out there, keep helping, because that help is so desperately needed,” she said. “We need a lot of money now because feed is really expensive. “Tweed Valley Fruit Exchange helped out with a lot of fresh produce, donated by all the boys at the markets, which the families weren’t expecting and just loved. “I want to thank Shoobridge Transport who supplied a truck, Norco, The Reject Shop and Coles Murwillumbah who have all helped out.” Jenny and Paul Magner have a property at Mingoola and organised and allocated feed to the families. “It was just fantastic on Saturday, the fresh fruit and veges and all the feed and produce was amazing,” Mrs Magner told The Weekly. “Even in the last week where other people had inches and inches, we only had a bit of drizzle over a week and there is still no feed and our dams are almost totally dry.” Mrs Magner said that that the visit from the Murwillumbah team was the first time they had received any help. “We couldn’t believe all the stuff they brought out and then fed us and

then departed, it was just amazing,” she said. “For them to give that time and fundraising and travelling out and being so caring and so nice it was just unbelievable.” Mrs Magner said that no one has been socialising and “no one sees anyone because everyone is too busy feeding stock”. “It was really good to have everyone get together,” she said. “It gives a massive boost to all the farmers.” Truck driver Tim Newell has been spending his weekends off carting hay and other supplies in a donated O’Connors truck to different areas in need and was one of three truck drivers who took loads to Mingoola.

Ironically rain hampered efforts to get hay bales out of the paddock. “I got bogged trying to get out of the paddock with Brickie Butler and he had to get the tractor to get me out and bring the hay out. which we loaded in the pouring rain,” Tim said. “Two of the loads we took out were donated by Bangalow Adopts Bingara and the Rotary AM group put on a barbecue lunch for everyone which was great. “Stone and Wood donated a few cartons so the farmers could have a beer.” It was Tim’s fifth trip out west and he hopes to be able to make more with the support of the Tweed community.

“We are still looking for donations - if it keeps coming we’ll keep going,” he said. “You can just pick a spot on a map - there is so many places that need it.” See Tracy Law at the Roundabout Takeaway for any large donations. There will be tins out across the Tweed Shire so please give generously. The Roundabout Takeaway is donating $3 per Parmy Burger from next Monday and also has donated fresh produce including avocados going towards the fund. They are also after more donated produce and donated prizes for another big raffle.

Tumbulgum flood resilience recognised

THE TUMBULGUM Community Association has been recognised for their incredible resilience after floods devastated the area following Cyclone Debbie more than a year ago. In a media statement, Minister for Emergency Services, Troy Grant, presented the award during a special ceremony at Parliament House in Sydney, on Tuesday, October 16, alongside Member for Tweed Geoff Provest. The 2018 NSW Get Ready Community Award and the Resilient Australia Awards help highlight significant community-led disaster preparedness and response initiatives across the state. Mr Grant said while our emergency services do a tremendous job preparing and protecting the community, their efforts are often bolstered by unsung local heroes across NSW communities.

“Over the last 12 months, the Tumbulgum community has come together for this project to strengthen relationships with stakeholders and ultimately ensure they are best prepared for any future incidents,” Mr Grant said. “This community survived horrendous events, but under the worst of circumstances showed us the amazing things local residents and community groups can achieve when they work together.” The 2017 floods following Cyclone Debbie caused considerable damage to property in the Tumbulgum area and surrounding districts. Most distressingly, the community was then faced with the death of a local mother and her two children when their car went into the Tweed River, two days after flood water had subsided.

Mr Provest said he was incredibly proud of the association for their outstanding efforts to fortify flood recovery strategies into the future. The group appointed coordinators, established a Flood Recovery and Resilience Sub Committee, held community meetings, barbecues and forums to move forward with recovery efforts. “By involving the whole local community, the Tumbulgum Community Association’s proactive response not only improved access to information, but also forged stronger relationships with the local council, government and support agencies,” Mr Provest said. “After such devastating floods and the tragic loss of life in our community, it’s so heartening to see people banding together in this way to support one another.”

SAM FORD will attempt to walk eight kilometres from Salt Surf Club to Cabarita Beach Hotel on Saturday, October 27, to raise funds for an independent living space in a new home his parents are having built in Cabarita. Details of the walk include leaving Salt at 9am and at 10.30am he will stop at beach access one. The team expect to stop roughly every hour for a quick recharge and they are aiming to hit the Cabarita Beach Hotel at around 2.30pm, where Sam will walk down the hill to the grassed area in front of the pub. A barbecue will take place at Cabarita Boardriders to kick off from 2pm to 5pm An ongoing art exhibition and silent auction will take place from 2pm to 7pm. The team is hoping to raise in the vicinity of $25,000 to support the shortfall of funds that the family has to complete the required modifications to Sam’s home. Donations are being taken on the GoFundMe page and at Xcell Health and Fitness in Kingscliff. Jason Thatcher, from Xcell, said Sam has been working towards this walk since the Commonwealth Games Baton relay in which he did his first public walk, which was only 250m. “This walk will be 8km in total which is a massive progression for Sam,” Jason said. “Sam has worked tirelessly to gain the strength and endurance required for such a mammoth task and his desire to become independent is admirable. “The entire team behind Sam couldn’t be more proud of the effort he has displayed and his willingness to push the boundaries.” Donate at https://www.gofundme.com/sam-ford039scoming-home-charity-walk

Local News 19

Do Australia’s Northern Territory Australia’s Northern Territory is the home of the real outback, known around the world for its iconic natural treasures, ancient Aboriginal culture, birds and wildlife and dramatic landscapes. A place with a plethora of national parks and isolated towns, The Northern Territory is a place for reflection, relaxation, exploration and adventure. With an area of 1.421 million square kilometres, there is a lot of space to explore. Here are the main areas that are worth a visit on your trip to the top end.

Darwin

The capital city and main gateway to the Northern Territory, Darwin was named after Charles Darwin. Darwin’s tropical savanna climate means it has two distinct seasons: wet and dry. The dry season is the best time to visit, when the weather is warm, but humidity is low. In Darwin you can visit the Waterfront

Precinct, Crocosaurus Cove, the Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory, Mindil Beach and the Botanic Gardens. Sunsets here are something special.

Litchfield National Park

Litchfield National Park can be done in a day trip from Darwin. Highlights include swimming holes at Florence Falls and Buley Rockhole, bushwalks at Tabletop Track, the magnetic termite mounds and the Lost City, which includes a series of large freestanding sandstone formations that look like ancient city ruins. Visiting Litchfield National Park in the wet season also makes for amazing wildlife viewing.

Kakadu National Park

The World Heritage-listed Kakadu National Park covers an area of approximately 20,000 square kilometres (7,722 square miles). It is here you can find ancient Aboriginal rock art sites at Nourlangie and Ubirr, which is

known for its spectacular sunsets. Visitors can also cruise the Yellow Water billabong; swim at Maguk, Jim Jim Falls or Gunlom Plunge Pool with its panoramic views; or take a scenic flight and see Australia’s biggest national park from the air.

Katherine

Known as the place where the Outback meets the tropics, Katherine is located 320 kilometres (200 miles) southeast of Darwin. For a small town, this place has a lot to see and do around the small town. Highlights here include Nitmiluk National Park and its Katherine Gorge, Elsey National Park, Mataranka Thermal Pool, Bitter Springs and Cutta Cutta Caves - one of Australia’s only tropical limestone cave systems.

Uluru

The world-famous Uluru, known as Ayers Rocks, and Kata Tjuta (also known as the Olgas) are both beautiful destinations to visit

within this World Heritage-listed national park. The large red sandstone monolith that is Uluru is said to have begun forming over 550 million years ago. Uluru is culturally and spiritually significant to the local indigenous Anangu people. The Olgas are another ancient red rock formation within the national park. Both sights are best seen at sunrise or sunset, when the sun makes them change colour.

Alice Springs

The very remote town of Alice Springs is a great destination to base yourself in the Northern Territory, as there are plenty of things to do around Alice Springs. Explore the West MacDonnell and Finke Gorge National Parks, Alice Springs Desert Park, the Olive Pink Botanic Garden and the Alice Springs Reptile Centre. The team at Helloworld are here to help every step of the way, so if you have any questions about exploring the Northern Territory, contact them on 02 6672 1031.

Hopefully this is the beginning of the end of this devastating drought. The wet weather has seen a decline in the sugar content of the cane. However, the average CCS for this season is still well above budget, at 11.7 per cent and the ash level is 1.8 per cent (average) for the year to date. Condong’s crop is now 75 per cent harvested and the expected finish date is mid-November. The world sugar price has been very low in recent months, but this week’s small lift in the world sugar price gives the industry some encouragement, let’s hope this trend continues. After a dry winter with cold nights, we have now had more than sufficient rain and the oncoming warm spring weather will be welcome. Condong Mill has performed well this year without too much breakdown time and Condong should be the first mill in NSW to finish crushing this year. Bye for now and best wishes, Rob Hawken.

A WEEK of wet weather has impacted the NSW Sugar industry in several ways. Cane harvesting has ceased due to growers being unable to burn the cane, and the soft ground conditions mean that harvesters cannot work. Cane planting has also stopped, and many growers have not yet planted, while some have partially completed. Other farm chores such as fertiliser application and weed control are suspended. The baling of cane straw has also ceased as hay can only be made in dry conditions. The cane straw has been very much appreciated in the western drought area. The cane straw is used as a fibre supplement in stock feed. The wet weather could see the end of this drought relief effort in our district. But it is good to see some rain in the areas where it has been so dry.

Dual Bathurst winner sells for a mint

Ford Falcon GTHO Phase IV

Ford to give Holden a run for its money

One of the best Commodores ever made sells for record price at auction

PETER BROCK’S 1982/1983 Bathurstwinning HDT VH Commodore sold for $2.1 million at auction on the weekend breaking the Australian record. The famous record-breaking vehicle was the first car to win two Bathurst races in a row and has continued to break records 35 years later. “This result really shows that Peter’s legacy lives on and that people valued him as not only as one of the best drivers in motorsport but as a person,” said Peter Champion – Owner of the HDT. “Thousands of people came through our doors on Saturday, taking photos, sharing stories, parents passing on the legacy of Peter Brock to their children,” Bill Freeman Head Auctioneer of Lloyds Auctions said.

“This passion and enthusiasm for Peter Brock and these cars will definitely continue to live on. “The amount paid for this car doesn’t surprise me with its rich history and shows that the market is strong and is continuing to grow.” From the great results and interest in the auction Lloyds believes that many more race cars, cars with chrome bumpers and cars with links to Peter Brock will soon surface to the market including pieces of rare memorabilia. The auction event attracted the attention from not only thousands of people but racing legends including Allan Moffat, Fred Gibson and David Parsons striking excitement within the crowd.

ONLY TWO weeks after a $2.1 million record was set for a Dual Bathurst Winning Commodore, a Ford Falcon GTHO Phase IV is set to give Holden a run for its money with up to $3 million expected at auction this weekend. Current bidding of over $1.5 million on the extremely rare Ford Falcon has already surpassed recent records of $1.03 million on a GTHO Phase III. Auctioneers and Ford muscle car experts anticipate that this car will fetch around $3 million, as it is one of only three left in the world. “We are extremely humbled to have the opportunity of handling the transition of this car to its next custodian,” Brett Mudie, Chief Marketing Officer at Lloyds Auctions said. “We have not seen a Phase IV and are very excited to auction it alongside what is undoubtedly Australia’s best Track Red GTHO Phase III. “We have recently sold two Track Red Phase III’s for ‘seven figure amounts’ and

AUTOMOTIVE SUSPENSION & EXHAUST

this Phase III has been described by many Phase III experts as the best in Australia.” The Phase IV is expected to fetch $3 million as it was the car that changed Australian Motor Sport forever. Phase IIIs dominated the racetrack prior to the release of the Phase IV and left little opportunity for competitiveness amongst rival race teams. This XA GTHO is one of only four built before the ‘Super Car Scare’ which forced Ford to abandon its plans to continue the legend of GTHO Phase cars that dominated Australian motor racing. Built in Ford’s Special Vehicles unit known as Lot 6 these cars were going to be driven by motorsport greats Allan Moffatt and Fred Gibson. A Knight Frank Wealth Report Update has revealed that certain classic cars have shown a higher return on investment. “Cars in original condition, with chrome bumpers, celebrity affiliation or prominent history seem to be the ones that are rising in value first,” Mr Mudie said.

Fingal Head Coastcare recognised THE ACHIEVEMENTS of Fingal Head Coastcare have been featured at the Australian National Landcare Conference in Brisbane recently, with a poster depicting restoration work carried out on the Fingal Peninsula. The recognition is a huge pat on the back for Fingal Head Coastcare, which has for the past 32 years, been reestablishing 32 hectares of littoral rainforests, coastal woodlands, dunal and headland vegetation at Fingal Head, which had been degraded by sand extraction during the 1960s. Fingal Head Coastcare member, Kay Bolton, said the group was also delivering environmental education programs and organising community activities to increase community awareness and involvement in environmental protection. “Fingal Head Coastcare Inc has been operating continuously for 32 years and has volunteers working four mornings a week, revegetating 32 hectares of crown land on the Fingal Peninsula,” she said. “In 2017 alone 2,588 seedlings were planted, and 3,109 voluntary hours recorded, making it the oldest, continuously operating dunecare group in NSW.” Mrs Bolton said the group has 222 financial members and also propagates local native plants in the Fingal Head Coastcare nursery, including endangered and threatened species. “Our work and achievements have been recognised by 51 regional and state awards, including being named 2017 State Landcare Champion in the Sure Grow Coastcare Award in NSW Landcare Awards,” she said.

The Landcare Conference poster which shows before and after pictures of Fingal Head Coastcare’s regeneration efforts.

Fingal Head Coastcare works under the guidance of Tweed Shire Council, bush regenerators and management plans. “We also control weeds using manual and mechanical removal and chemical controls,” she said. “Coastcare’s method was famous in the 1990s and showcased at early Landcare Conferences. “We revegetate degraded areas with native species including endangered species and general enrichment planting.” Among some of the Fingal Head Coastcare’s greatest achievements include 32 hectares of area formerly degraded by sand mining now supporting healthy native vegetation. The regeneration has increased biodiversity which provides healthy habitat for flora and fauna.

Tweed Bird Observers recorded 23 bird species in the 1960s before revegetation and 217 species in 2017. Mrs Bolton said Fingal Head Coastcare was also a long running, successful, active voluntary group, not only regenerating native vegetation but also educating, raising awareness and involving the community in improving and protecting the region’s natural assets. “As part of this we are hosting a graffiti removal day on Sunday, October 21, in conjunction with Fingal Head Coastcare, Fingal Head Community Association, Tweed Valley Sailing Club, Tweed Byron Local Aboriginal Land Council and other members of the community will be helping.”

Councils tackling climate change TWEED SHIRE Council has joined with several other councils across the country who are outstripping the Federal Government on policies to tackle climate change by committing to hundreds of projects to cut greenhouse gas pollution, according to a report released by the Climate Council’s Cities Power Partnership. The report, Tackling Climate Change Together: Local Governments Lead the Charge, highlights hundreds of climate pledges made by councils in the Cities Power Partnership, Australia’s largest council climate alliance, of which Tweed Shire Council has recently joined. Member councils are required to make five climate pledges, committing to projects ranging from powering council facilities with clean energy through to setting ambitious citywide renewable energy and emissions reduction targets. The pledges come as the Cities Power Partnership grows by 31 new councils, taking the network to over 100 councils representing almost 11 million Australians. Chief Climate Councillor, Professor Tim Flannery, said that as Federal climate policy sees Australia falling short of our emissions reduction targets, climate action from our cities and towns is more important than ever. “Despite the latest data showing that Australia’s emissions are soaring, our towns and cities are quietly shifting to a renewable future,” he said. “A huge surge of local government renewable energy projects are underway - and with over 100 councils joining the Cities Power Partnership, we’ll see many more. “As councils control over $380 billion of the nation’s land and assets, what happens at the local government level is hugely significant - and there’s a clear signal coming from them that climate action is needed, now.” Cities Power Partnership councils have submitted over 300 climate and energy pledges, making up a huge combined effort to drive down greenhouse gas pollution. Over 130 of the submitted pledges focus on increasing renewable energy to reduce greenhouse gas pollution at council or community level. Councils are setting ambitious emissions reduction and renewable energy goals, with over 70 pledges focused on how councils can work together and with their communities to drive down local emissions. Councils are saving ratepayers money through energy efficiency, with over 60 pledges to introduce energy efficient lighting (particularly street lighting) and to make council buildings more energy efficient, reducing climate impact and saving thousands of dollar off power bills.

Tweed gets hooked on delicious seafood ONE OF the Tweed Shire’s most popular seafood restaurants, Get Hooked Fresh Seafoods, continues to go from strength the strength after the current owner took over the business nearly four years ago. Mother of three boys, Anne Berta, recently caught up with The Weekly to talk about her passion for the small business that’s quickly become her fourth pride and joy. The business employs more than 18 staff from the Tweed shire and has grown threefold since Anne took over the business. Get Hooked Seafoods strives to deliver the best quality seafood to locals and visitors at affordable prices. “We have fish and seafood from Queensland waters and we even have fresh fish flown in from New Zealand,” Anne said. “We use only the best seafood and provide top quality service to our valued customers. “We are in a beautiful location on the Tweed Marina, with indoor and outdoor dining to suit all occasions, and you can even get to us by boat.” Get Hooked stocks more than 25plus varieties of fish including fresh Snapper, mixed reef, Flathead, Pacific Plate, Sydney Rock Oysters, Ocean King and Tiger Prawns, Moreton Bay Bugs and great salads made daily. “We also do great burgers and chips, cooked seafood snacks like crumbed Sea Scallops, Fish Bites, homemade Calamari (which is tender and tasty) and more,” Anne said. “I can buy cheaper produce, but I just won’t do it. “We use A-Grade everything and all of our fish is deboned and has the belly

flap removed, which means that you only pay for the premium fillet. “I think this has greatly impacted the success we have experienced. We have something for every budget and every taste.” Anne said among the most popular orders was the fresh seafood platters which range from $10 to $59. “They are ready to go, great for entertaining and great value for money,” she said. “We also now have online ordering and our own phone app, so you can pre-order. “It saves you on wait times when it’s busy, and it’s really easy to use. You just need to search ‘Get Hooked Seafoods’ on Google Play or I-Tunes.” Get Hooked also provide gluten free and healthy options, such as grilled fish

and calamari and amazing homemade sauce options. Customers were always looking for a nice place to have lunch on the weekends, and Get Hooked has recently introduced live music every second weekend. “Being fully licensed makes this a great place to spend an afternoon in the sun, by the clear waters of the Tweed River,” Anne said. Get Hooked Seafoods is open 364 days of the year (only closed Christmas Day), at 2 River Terrace, Tweed Heads. Check out their events page on either their website: www.ghseafoods.com.au or via Facebook to keep up to date with live music sessions and for reminders about specials and competitions.

MEMBER FOR Tweed Geoff Provest recently announced $3.2 million for the Kingscliff Sports Complex along with another $350,000 grant to breathe new life into Barry Shepherd Oval at Round Mountain. “This is an exciting time for sports facilities on the Tweed Coast with this funding to provide new change facilities and field lighting,” Mr Provest said, “The upgrade of these facilities will enable the newly formed women’s team and senior men’s AFL teams to fully utilise the field for competition and training during the day and into the evening. “I congratulate Tweed Shire Council and the Tweed Coast Tigers on the success of this application and know these sport and community facility improvements will make the Tweed an even more attractive place to work and raise a family.” Deputy Premier and Minister for Regional NSW John Barilaro said the funding was provided in the second round of projects through the NSW Government’s Stronger Country Communities Fund. “The $300 million Stronger Country Communities Fund is part of the NSW Government’s $1.6 billion Regional Growth Fund that is employing local tradies, putting local suppliers to work and providing the right environment to operate regional businesses,” he said.

Tweed businesses scoop Northern Rivers Business Awards TWEED SHIRE-BASED businesses scooped seven awards at the 2018 Northern Rivers Regional Business Awards gala dinner on Saturday, October 13, at Elements of Byron. Among the winners this year was Stone & Wood Brewing Co, who was named the Business of the Year and won the award for Outstanding Employer of Choice. Stone & Wood was recognised for their “Think. Do. Share.” policy which is a full company safety program to embed safety as a number one priority at Stone & Wood, who have been able to reduce incident rates by 80 per cent within the 18 months of implementing the new initiatives. This year’s Outstanding Young Employee award went to SAE Group employee Caitlyn Knight, who started with SAE Group in 2012 as a trainee and has since worked her way through the company to her current role as General Operations Manager. Next up was the Excellence in Innovation award which went to Sunshine Sugar, which is the only 100 per cent Australian owned producer of raw and refined sugar products. Sunshine Sugar’s Condong Mill has also teamed up with Nutrition Innovation Group to produce Nucane a Low GI sugar and a 100 per cent wholesome raw cane sugar that retains naturally occurring phytochemicals beneficial to human health when consumed moderately and in a balanced diet. The Excellence in Small Business award this year went to the outstanding kitchen garden restaurant Potager at Carool. Set on a 10-acre farm, Potager – A Kitchen Garden, provides great food

in a relaxed dining environment with excellent service to showcase the region. Potager is a multi-award winning business with many repeat customers and five-star reviews online. The award for Excellence in Social Enterprise went to Yaru Water & Mount Warning Spring Water. Yaru tells an important cultural story, whilst creating better health outcomes for Indigenous communities. Their business strategy is underpinned by their social mission as they have numerous projects in place to help close the health gap including working with the Fred Hollows Foundation to raise $150,000 and prevent unnecessary blindness. This year’s Excellence in Aged Care and Wellbeing winner was the popular Murwillumbah-based business Varela & Swift Pharmacy. Varela & Swift Pharmacy first began serving the Murwillumbah community more than thirty years ago building a

legacy renowned for strong family values and personalized service. The Varela and Swift family are strong advocates of preventative health, promoting long-term wellbeing through training their staff to be active listeners in order meet customer’s needs. Murwillumbah & District Business Chamber (MDBC) president Karrisa Ball said it was an outstanding result for the Tweed Shire. “As chamber president I am very proud of how well the MDBC was represented in these awards and particularly pleased to see the top award going to Stone and Wood, as a representative of the best of Northern Rivers business,” Mrs Ball said. “Our chamber board is highly skilled and it’s great to see those skills being recognised at the Regional Business Awards. “We wish our businesses the best of luck as they progress into the State awards now.”

What’s new at the market? So what’s GREAT at the market NOW?

There is so much variety right now that it is hard to choose so here are just a few suggestions. Jumping Red Ant Farm (JRA) stall has broad beans for a few more weeks and several stalls including Summit Organics (SO), Bio Organic Farm (BOF), Sylva Lining Organics (SLO), Everest Farm (EF) and JRA have broccoli/ cauliflower for a little longer. SO and EF have rhubarb for another couple of weeks and SO, BOF and SLO have celery too until the heat prevents further production. Coriander is also very popular. Did you know that this is the world’s most commonly used herb? Yes that is correct according to SBS Food. Native to southern Europe and the Middle East coriander is now available and used worldwide. Both the fresh leaves and seeds are used either as a garnish or flavour enhancer. It is also great in pesto and if you want to buy ready-made both The Gourmet Salad Hut and Spice Palace give you great choices. Coriander is a very divisive herb though: on one side of the fence are those of us who love coriander - but those who dislike it are very strong in their aversion. Unlike other herbs where only the leaves are used, with coriander you can literally use every part of it. The roots have a stronger flavour though so if you are cooking for anyone who

dislikes it then the tops are much milder and as they are best added towards the end they can be used sparingly on that person’s serving. There are so many delicious recipes using coriander that we are spoilt for choice. My favourite is Adam Liaw’s Coconut and Coriander Chicken Curry. https://www. goodfood.com.au/recipes/coconut-andcoriander-chicken-curry-20151027-457pl Beetroot is also abundant right now. With beautiful big bunches of new season beetroot jumping with freshness. And don’t waste their leafy green tops. They are perfectly edible with a flavour similar to kale and are wonderful cooked! If you have not yet become familiar with Yotam Ottolenghi’s recipes you are missing something truly inspiring. His book Plenty More has a delightful recipe for Smoked Beetroot with Yoghurt and Caramelised Macadamias. It is so good! And so are many more for example Honey Roasted Carrot with Tahini Yoghurt or Tomato and Almond (maybe pecan or macadamia) Tart. You may be interested in checking out his podcast called Simple Pleasures where he shares more of his recipes. The one on September 1, includes roasted beetroot salad with yoghurt, dill and preserved lemon and tahini. Don’t forget that Blueberry Fields has returned with their buckets (and punnets) of delicious

blueberries but they are only a fortnightly stall and can’t pick after rain. So check out my weekly updates on our website to know what weeks they are at the market. Thank you for supporting our farming families and local producers at our market every Wednesday. For more details and weekly updates follow us on Facebook at www.facebook. com/Murwillumbah-Farmers-Market or visit our ‘What’s New’ page at http:// murwillumbahfarmersmarket.com.au/whatsnew/ Weekly updates go live at 4pm every Monday, so sign up to receive all the latest news directly to your inbox.

o you love to indulge in beautiful soaps or enjoy giving them as gifts? Church Farm has joined our market bringing their handmade botanical soaps and their sauces and pickles too. These vegan friendly naturally coloured and palm-oil free botanical soaps are all handmade at Church Farm. Their rose soap made with pink clay and almond oil is divine. With so many fresh combinations how to choose only one is the challenge. Will it be a lemon myrtle with macadamia oil or a lavender with purple clay and lavender oil? Or one of the many others! A very happy customer who recently bought some when visiting from Perth is busily ordering more online as she is so in love with them. Such a great recommendation! Church Farm also brings a range of their popular sauces and pickles including a smoked hot sauce, barbecue sauce and tomato ketchup and passata. If you haven’t tried their products you must visit them at the market soon. For all our sugar cane juice lovers you will be excited to know that we have a new Organic Sugar Cane Juice stall commencing next week. Local Murwillumbah mum Zijing Barber is adding to the range of thirst quenching drinks on offer at the market as the weather heats up coming into summer.

Local News 35

Pottsville woman celebrates her 110th birthday THE OLDEST living person in Australia, Wilhelmina Elizabeth Overall, recently celebrated her 110th birthday at Bupa Aged Care Pottsville Beach. Wilhelmina has lived in Pottsville for the past 50 years and has an incredible story to tell, having grown up in Northern NSW in a farming family. For the last five years, Wilhelmina has been a resident of Seabreeze Community Aged Care and now of Bupa Aged Care Pottsville Beach. Whilhelmina’s daughter Jan Denzel recently caught up with The Weekly to highlight her mother’s extraordinary story, spanning two world wars and more than a century. M r s D e n z e l s p o ke o n h e r mother’s behalf as she has difficulty communicating. Wilhelmina Elizabeth Overall was born on October 6, 1908, at home in Coopers Shoot, an area overlooking Byron Bay. Her parents, Elizabeth and Jack Hill, were a farming family and Wilhelmina was the youngest of five children; Roy, Lyle and twins Mary and Elma. She was helped into the world by midwife nurse Schrubb, a friend of her mother and a lifelong friend of the family. Mrs Denzel said Wilhelmina describes herself as having a happy childhood with loving and caring parents. “She commenced school as a five-year-old and like many

country children, walked around two kilometres across paddocks and fields in all weathers with her brothers and sisters to attend the classes,” she said. “In later years the transport to and from school was on horseback. “No buses, cars or parents to run you to school. “In time, Wilhelmina sat and passed the exams for her QC certificate, the entrance exam for high school.” Mrs Denzel said Wilhelmina unfortunately had no high school in which to advance her education. “ I n h e r c h i l d h o o d d ay s Wilhelmina, together with sisters Mary and Elma, began to learn to play the piano,” she said. “Enough for the girls to join with family friends and the rest of the family and sing the current songs when gathered around the piano. “A chore she and brother Roy were required to do was to pluck and remove the feathers from chickens, for the family meal. “The family moved for a few years to Tyagarah, where a tennis court on the property meant that many friends and family would gather to play.” Mrs Denzel said growing up, Wilhelmina was very keen on dancing and would attend as many of the local dances as she could. “Often riding horses with her brothers and sisters to get there Bangalow to Byron Bay, Wilhelmina was always ready for dancing,” she said.

“Her father, Jack, would often play the fiddle in the band.” After leaving primary school, Wilhelmina and her family moved to a dairy farm in Knockrow and Wilhelmina was required to participate in the running of the farm. “Her father, Jack, bought a car and took driving lessons from a Percy Overall,” Mrs Denzel said. “Percy met with other members of the family, particularly Wilhelmina, where romance and love blossomed.” Percy and Wilhelmina married in Lismore in 1934, moved to Sydney and lived in Bondi Beach. “After five years I was born (1939) and then John (1941),” she said. “World War II had commenced, and Percy had joined the RAAF and was stationed in Darwin. “This time Wilhelmina was on her own with two children. “Japanese wartime activities in the Sydney Harbour had Wilhelmina packing up and moving to her parents’ home near Bangalow. “She lived and worked on the dairy farm until the war ended and Percy came home. “With the birth of Tony, the family moved back to Sydney and after a time, to Diadem Street, Lismore where the children commenced school. “From Lismore the family moved to Stokers Siding where Percy and Wilhelmina managed the Post Office and General Store.”

Wilhelmina Overall at 105 years

Wilhelmina and Percy retired to Pottsville in the 1960s and Percy died in 1979. “Wilhelmina was a keen and successful bowler, playing at the Condong, Cabarita and Pottsville Bowls Clubs for many years,” Mrs Denzel said. “She played her last game of bowls at 93 years of age.” Wilhelmina was a non-smoker but enjoyed a beer (always a 7oz Tooheys Old) when socialising with members of her family and friends.

“She enjoyed watching bowls, rugby league and cricket on television,” Mrs Denzel said. “In her retirement years she would have been found sitting in her sunroom on Elizabeth Street, crocheting, or reading the local newspaper or conversing with the many local people who would drop by for a chat.” With her three children, Jan, John and Toni, Wilhelmina has four grandchildren and four greatgrandchildren.

Pottsville rallies for local legend FRIENDS OF John and Pottsville Beach Neighbourhood Centre (PBNC) are holding a special Dance for John event to raise funds for local resident John Castner, who has volunteered and worked at PBNC for more than five years and is universally loved by those with whom he has worked and served in our community. This fundraising event is being staged because John has recently been diagnosed with brain cancer (glioblastoma) and has experienced health challenges from a very early age, after contracting leukaemia at two years-old and undergoing a bone marrow transplant when he was six. John is well known for his courtesy, thoughtfulness and helpful attitude and actions in assisting coworkers, customers and clients associated with the PBNC toy library, child and family activities, opportunity shop, second hand furniture store and at the community barbecues and arts, crafts and produce markets on the first and third Sunday of each month. These life-preserving treatments impacted on his growth plates and created additional health issues which have meant that his entire life experience has been about living with very short stature and endless visits to doctors to monitor and treat existing and emerging health conditions. John’s health issues have also impacted on his quality of life, self-esteem and confidence, which have proved to be barriers to working in mainstream

employment, thus creating a further disadvantage for him financially. Prior to being employed at PBNC, John had volunteered at Mullumbimby and District Neighbourhood Centre, when he lived in Mullumbimby. The community is encouraged to join the initiative to help raise funds for John, who has been such a wonderful asset to Pottsville and at the PBNC in which he has given so much to our community. Tickets are now on sale at Pottsville Newsagency and the Pottsville Beach Neighbourhood Centre.

Tickets for adults are $15, family (two adults and two children under 15) $30 for seniors, children and young people aged 5 to 18 are $10, children under five are free. The event will take place on Saturday, November 10, at Pottsville Community Hall from 6.30pm to 10pm. Along with a Raffle Megadraw there will be an auction of a fabulous painting by local indigenous artist Bianca Gardiner Dodd. There will also be face painting available for the children at this family friendly event.

FILMS th Mia wi

A STAR IS BORN

Film critics worldwide are raving about A Star is Born, the fourth remake of a classic story that dates back to 1932 and that revolves around a hard-drinking rock & roll musician, still popular but in existential crisis, who discovers and falls in love with a young fresh-faced singer-songwriter who becomes his lover and stage partner before eventually rocketing on her own as a pop musician. While she takes off he slowly crashes - that in a nutshell is the film’s concept. The previous remakes of the film were the musical directed in 1954 by George Cukor and starring Judy Garland and James Mason, the 1976 rock musical starring Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson, and a 2013 Bollywood romance film. The latest version is set in the present day, evoking the electrifying atmosphere of huge rock concerts – even more so since Ally, the female protagonist, is played by Lady Gaga, the ultimate rock star. Bradley Cooper plays Jackson Maine, her mentor and lover who first encourages her to find her voice but later struggles to accept not only her independence but also the changes that time brings to the way music is made and performed. Ultimately the message of the movie is that both in pop music and in life it’s always time for the old ways to die and for new ways to be born.

John Castner receiving his Certificate of Appreciation with Julie Watson and Drew Stevenson at PBNC.

Bradley Cooper in this film debuts also as film director. The performances of the two protagonists and the palpable chemistry between them have received wide critical acclaim, together with Cooper’s directing style. In order to prepare for the film the actor learnt how to sing and play guitar at a professional level and the effort paid off, as from the electrifying opening scene the movie looks, sounds and feels thrillingly believable and authentic.

Tyalgum Dance Spectacular THE LINE-UP for the Tyalgum Dance Spectacular has recently been finalised for Saturday, November 10, with some bigname stars set to hit the dance floor. Recently announced by Hearts Aflame Productions, the Latin American dance segment of the event will be performed by Professional Latin Champions Jarryd Byrne and Alarna Donovan from Melbourne. Jarryd has competed in three seasons of Channel 7’s series Dancing with the Stars, making it to the grand final twice. Jarryd also toured internationally with Burn The Floor and performed in the national tour of Baz Luhrmann’s Strictly Ballroom the Musical. His partner, Alarna Donovan, is an Australian Latin American Champion and winner of the prestigious Blackpool Rising Star Championships, among many others. A new dance partnership, Jarryd and Alarna’s first competition together was in July this year and they have won the Professional Latin title at two major championships since then. The Ballroom segment of this year’s show will be presented by Andrew Nolo and Sarlote Jakse, also from Melbourne. One of Australia’s top competitors, Andrew and Sarlote are the 2018 Victorian Ballroom Champions and 2018 Crown International Dancesport Champions and were placed second in the 2017 Australian Championships. They will be performing with Australian Professional Championship finalists (and Tweed locals) Rhett and Emma Salmon who, this year will perform the elegant New Vogue segment of the event. “We’re also thrilled that dance celebrity Mark Wilson, former judge on Dancing With The Stars, was keen to return after an absence of three years as our MC,” said Hearts Aflame Productions manager, Solar Chapel. “He was absolutely stunned at the calibre of performances when he was last in Tyalgum, and his consummate professionalism as host brings real star quality to the event.” Presented in the historic Tyalgum Hall, Tyalgum Dance Spectacular has emerged as one of the highlights of the region’s entertainment calendar, attracting audiences from all over the Northern Rivers and South-East Queensland. “There is no other event anywhere in Australia like this where professional Ballroom, Latin and New Vogue dancers can perform free-style, without the restrictions of competition,” Solar said. “This really adds an extra element of magic, where our performers enjoy themselves as much as the audience.

“The dancers love it, because they can relax and perform the routines they want to perform, without the strict limitations imposed by competition guidelines,” he said. Now in its eighth year, the annual Tyalgum Dance Spectacular features a beautifully choreographed program of couple and group performances, interspersed with the operatic talents of guest soprano, Petah Chapman. Touring nationally and internationally with the Seven Sopranos and a regular soloist with Queensland Symphony Orchestra, Petah’s blend of classic and popular opera arias has made her a Tyalgum favourite, after performances at the past three Dance Spectaculars. Dinner and show packages for the Tyalgum Dance Spectacular on Saturday, November 10, are priced at $95 per person and include a two-course pre-show dinner at Flutterbies Cottage Café. Show only tickets are priced at $65 per person. For more information or to book your spot phone 0488 713 241 or book online via: heartsaflameproductions.com

THE WEEKLY, in collaboration with Earth Learning, are launching The Living Valley, a series of articles that focus on the Tweed’s amazing wildlife and the important role our young people have in telling the stories of the plants and animals of our shire. Earth Learning are working with Banora Point Primary year 5 and 6 students, to write in-depth stories about the plants and animals of the Tweed, as a community education project. Our rich volcanic geology, soils and high rainfall have made this area a refuge for the rainforests that once covered Australia, before we became the driest inhabited continent on earth. Earth Learning’s Ages of the Tweed levee wall mural in Murwillumbah depicts the deep history of our landscapes and the lineage of the wildlife that inhabits this area. In coming weeks the mural will become a treasure hunt for young people to explore which habitat each animal or plant chooses to find their food and shelter. The first article in The Living Valley series is about the Albert’s Lyrebird (pictured), which has been researched and written by year 6 Banora Point Primary School students Angus Brindley and Luke Mooney.

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

The Albert’s Lyrebird is a large ground-dwelling bird. Females are approximately 75cm in length and males are around 90cm. They weigh 930g and have a wing-span of 76-79cm. Albert’s Lyrebird’s head and neck are mostly grey and the forehead is red and brown. They have black and brown feathers that are darker than Superb Lyrebirds. Their tails are lacey with rounded tips and they have large eyes and a pointed beak. Albert’s Lyrebirds have feet ideal for grasping onto branches. Albert’s Lyrebirds are found in Northern NSW and can also be found in south-eastern parts of Queensland. The Albert’s Lyrebird is a rare species that can only be found in places with an altitude of 300m and on occasion 100m above sea level. Gullies along watercourses, slopes and ridges of steep mountains are common places where the Albert’s Lyrebird can be located. Albert’s Lyrebirds like wet sclerophyll forests or rainforests with a dense understory of vines and shrubs for protection and foraging. Albert’s Lyrebirds are mainly carnivores but occasionally eat seeds, they forage in areas with leaf litter and fallen logs. Their legs have adapted to powerfully rake away soil and dead leaves to reveal small invertebrates such as worms, spiders, snails or myriapods like centipedes and millipedes. Even though the rainforest provides excellent protection for the Albert’s Lyrebird, they have introduced and non-introduced predators. Predators of the Albert’s Lyrebirds include foxes and dingoes whilst also being hunted by

feral cats and dogs. Albert’s Lyrebird’s eggs can be eaten by goannas and snakes. The Albert’s Lyrebird has developed numerous ways to protect itself from predators. The most common defence the Albert’s Lyrebirds have is their powerful call that gives them a vital advantage when facing predators. If they are attacked by a terrestrial animal, Albert’s Lyrebirds make a high-pitched vocalisation of an alarm whilst running and dodging throughout the forest floor. It is rare for Albert’s Lyrebirds to be attacked by aerial animals due to the protection the rainforest provides. The Albert’s Lyrebird is an egg laying animal that breeds in winter. They start to reproduce in June or July because of the cooler climate. Albert’s Lyrebirds breed beneath the canopy in the darkest areas of the forests. These birds are not like other species of birds who nest in trees, they nest on the ground. Albert’s Lyrebirds may breed in rocky areas, deep ravines and on occasion in caves and cliff faces. When a female Albert’s Lyrebird egg hatches the baby bird is naked and its eyes are closed. It takes six to ten weeks for an Albert’s Lyrebird to become independent and fend for itself. Watch out for The Living Valley stories over the coming weeks and join us to explore our local wildlife, as seen through the eyes of the future generations who hope to inherit this treasure trove. If your younsters would like to join this treasure hunt please contact info@ earthlearning.org.au or phone Adrienne We on 0432 917 555.

Nationals Candidate for Lismore, Austin Curtin; Minister for Early Childhood, Sarah Mitchell; Scholarship Awardee, Kuljit Dillon; Thomas George MP and Murwillumbah Early Childhood Centre Manager Renae Van Eck

Early childhood teaching support

MEMBER FOR Lismore Thomas George said he was pleased to congratulate early childhood educator, Kuljit Dillon, who has been awarded a rural and remote early childhood teaching scholarship, at Murwillumbah Early Education Centre to commence in 2018/19. Minister for Early Childhood Education, Sarah Mitchell, announced the successful applicants last week and said they would increase the numbers of degree-qualified teaching staff in early childhood education and care services in rural and remote areas. Mr George said it is a great opportunity for local educators to receive up to $10,000 in funding to help with the costs of study, making it easier for more people to boost their qualification to a four-year bachelor’s degree. “These scholarships support early childhood educators working in regional, rural and remote areas, outside of the big cities,” Mr George said. “I congratulate Kuljit who has been successful and wish her well in her studies. “It’s great news for families and for our local community.” Minister Mitchell said the scholarship program helps ensure rural and remote areas have a sustainable, highly qualified early childhood workforce into the future. “More educators with degree qualifications gives more children access to the benefits of qualified teachers in their local service,” Mrs Mitchell said. “I congratulate the new group of scholars and strongly encourage people to pass on their support to any scholarship recipients in their local areas.” For more information on the scholarships and how to apply, visit the Department of Education website at http://www. dec.nsw.gov.au/what-we-offer/regulation-and-accreditation/ early-childhood-education-care/scholarships

HOT WATER

Has Your Hot Water System Been Checked Lately? Ever Heard of a Sacrificial Anode?

A sacriﬁcial anode is a vital part of your water system, and having it inspected can be the difference between an efﬁciently working system and a costly replacement. Manufacturers recommend that you maintain the anode in your system in order to prevent damage from rust + corrosion. THE ANODE IN YOUR SYSTEM SHOULD NEVER BE ALLOWED TO CORRODE AWAY, WHATEVER TYPE OR BRAND OF SYSTEM YOU HAVE SOLAR, ELECTRIC, GAS OR HEAT PUMPS Cutaway section of a typical electric hot water heater

FOR A LIMITED TIME we will check your anode in the Tweed & Gold Coast area FREE OF CHARGE.

Holding with Shot Judy Tuckey LIFE IS full of surprises and so is lawn bowls as was witnessed at the President’s Singles recently conducted at Cudgen Leagues. Jim Gibson, whose prowess on the greens is well documented, was facing off against Granville Woodhouse in the final of this event. Woodhouse, himself no slouch with a bowl in his hand, is known to be a reliable all-rounder who can successfully handle any position he plays in and also can boast an impressive track record. So, the stage was set for a tough encounter between these two well-seasoned bowlers. Woodhouse opened the card and delivering steady draw bowls was 14-0 up after 10 ends before Gibson found his mark. As the dual continued, “Cool Draw” Woodhouse resumed his articulate drawing game, never allowing Gibson into the picture at any time. 21 ends later, game over and Woodhouse claimed victory with a substantial margin

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals to have his name etched on the Honours Board. Well done, Granville. With the turbulent weather all districts are currently experiencing, it was also surprising that the State Rookies Pairs Qualifiers took place at Ballina on Saturday. Cabarita duo’s Jan Jensen and Larry Parker and Finbar Carnelley and Gary Bosden were in the mix of 13 teams contesting this event. In the sectional play Jensen and Parker suffered defeat by a very strong Evans Head and drew against South Lismore. Carnelley and Bosden, secured a good win against Ballina but were then defeated by the eventual runner-up, South Grafton. A great effort from the local lads. Zone One Management thanks all players from the border down to Grafton who attended and played in such terrible conditions to ensure this event was concluded. Due to inclement weather TBDWBA District Shield scheduled for this week has been postponed to a new tentative date (October 29) which is yet to be confirmed. Please note your diaries. See you on the greens. Good bowling everyone.

Caba takes on the Straddy Assault weekend This weekend sees one of the longest running team events after the Kirra Teams Challenge, the Straddy Assault get underway Saturday morning at Point Lookout on North Stradbroke Island. It is a rite of passage for most surfers going to the Straddy Assault, fun times, good waves, and the island vibes. It has been pumping all week on the Northern side of the island with reports of former WCT surfer Ethan Ewing and the local crew getting stand up barrels that ran for miles from Deadman’s to Cylinders. It will be a different story this

weekend when 32 teams from Noosa to Coffs Harbour will be competing to win the event. Snapper Rocks Surfriders will be the team to beat, winning an incredible amount of times (I may get in trouble if I don’t get the exact number right - at least more than half the wins in the events 30 year plus history.) Cabarita will be there as always competing with a very strong team, and will be out to rattle a few cages. With their recent placing in the board riders battle qualifier, the team is in form and ready to get a result. Conditions are looking like solid Main Beach at Point Lookout, with northerly winds meaning clean conditions, and more than likely pumping waves depending how the banks shape up after this week’s huge swell. Point Lookout Boardriders have a rich history, and are the host of the event, and have produced surfers of an incredible standard for decades, including Bede Durbudge, Ethan Ewing and many others. They will also be a team to beat on their home breaks. I will wrap up the results next week.

Portugal Underway

Steph Gilmore missed out on winning the World Title in France by six hundredth of a point and Julian Wilson put himself back in the title race by winning the mens event.

The penultimate event of this years Men’s World Championship Tour is underway, with the three contenders for the title, Medina, Toledo, and the Sunshine Coast’s Julian Wilson, all progressing through to the 3rd round. Medina is in the box seat to win the title if he wins the event. The possibilities are as follows:- Only Medina can claim the title in Portugal by winning the event. - If Medina wins the event, Toledo will need a 9th or better and Wilson a 3rd or better to take the World Title decision to Hawaii; - If Medina finishes 2nd or worse in Portugal, the WSL Title will be decided in Hawaii. Portugal will play an interesting role in the World Title showdown as all three contenders have won this event before. Defending event winner Medina defeated Wilson in the Final of last year’s event. Toledo took his win in 2015, and Wilson won in 2012. Action starts around 6pm AEDST, so look forward to some late nights if you want to watch this one.

Between the Flags

Cudgen Headland SLSC - Keith Kennedy NO CLUB activities last Sunday with the Byron Bay Carnival cancelled as were our junior activities and the beach closed due to surf conditions. As our open carnival on 28th October is the only one in the Branch until the Branch Titles on the 17th February selection of the team for the Inter-Branch Titles at Blackhead on 8th December will have to be based on results from our carnival and last seasons performances, whilst the juniors have the Cudgen Classic on the Saturday before our Open and a carnival at Brunswick the following Sunday. This weekend the Branch IRB training scheme ALBERT will be taken to the Far South Coast Branch seven clubs at Tathra. Costs for this instruction have been met from the sponsorship of the Tweed Coast Freemasons. The NSW Dept. of Primary Industries in conjunction with SLS NSW launched last month its second drone surveillance trial with an additional 15 beaches, assisting lifeguards and lifesavers. The devices will not only be used for shark spotting but also to identify swimmers who may be in trouble.

Equipped with sirens, the SLS NSW coloured drones will enable lifesavers and lifeguards to sound an alarm should a shark be spotted. In the second year of partnership, SLS NSW are also working on improvements to the drones. Among the beaches on the north coast where they will be used are Kingscliff, Yamba, Coffs Harbour and Port Macquarie. The trial will continue until the end of April. The NSW 2018 AGM will be held at the NSW Office in Sydney on 2nd November to adopt the 111th Annual report. The President will also announce the newly elected NSW Life Members. Our secretary Kim Holdom is a Life Member, elected in 2006, and is currently a member of the State Life Member Committee and the Rules and Constitution Committee. The AGM of the Club Ltd. will be held at the Surf Club this Sunday morning at 11.30 am to receive the 2017-18 report, financial statement, and to elect Directors and Committees for 20018-19. All financial members eligible are welcome to attend. Congratulations to new Bronze Medallion members; Derek Child (Fingal); Zoe Hawkins, Brodie Copeland, Trevor De Young, Amanda Clarke, Jesse Vrbanic and thanks to our members who

Liam Worling, Joey Warne and NSW Coach Susan McCaughtrie (Brunswick SLSC)

organised and assisted in their training and also the Surf Rescue Squad - Sue Eke, Dennis Eyre, David Rope, Tim Regan, Alex Torrance, Greg Wood and our assessor, Matt Bell. The NSW U/18 Pool Rescue Development Team raced at the SLS NZ Pool Lifesaving Championships in Auckland last weekend with Joey Warne and Liam Worling competing. Competition was quite tough – 29 NZ Records were broken. The

boys came 2nd in the U 19 male resuce medley relay and Joey won the U 17 100 m Manikin tow and 100 m Manikin carry events, 2nd 50m with fins. Thank you to SLS NSW, FNC BRANCH, Cudgen Headland SLSC, Cudgen Headland Old Boys Association and the NSW management team for giving our young athletes this opportunity:- Max Gonzales, Callum Lowe-Griffiths & Susan McCaughtrie (Brunswick SLSC).

Tweed surfer heading to ISA World Juniors after two French QS wins CASUARINA SURFER Zahli Kelly is set to compete in the ISA World Juniors at Huntington, California on October 27 after a stellar year where she backed up as 2018 Australasian / Oceania WSL JQS champion and then went on to win two Qualifying Series events in Europe. Zahli’s mum Sue said they had picked two QS1500s for Zahli to surf in with CT surfers like Paige Hareb and three ex CT surfers, Chelsea Tuac, Dimity Stoyle and Pauline Ado who Zahli beat in the final of the Pro Anglet in France. “For the Caraïbos Lacanau Pro we told her not to worry about her heat results - we just wanted her to be comfortable with the waves and if you surf your best you will get good scores,” Sue said. “She did one heat where she scraped through and she came out and said she thought of it as a heat and started surfing to get the

Pauline Ado with Pro Anglet winner Zahli Kelly

scores so she stopped doing that and started doing really well again. “She was relaxed but towards the end it was probably quite scary because she is so quiet and they are so into it in France, even a QS, and it would take her 20 - 30 minutes to walk up the beach because everyone wanted her autograph. She said, this is all my worst nightmares rolled into one.” When she won the contest, Europe WSL representative told Zahli she would have to get used to it. “Zahli said, how often do you win a QS and then she won the next one,” Sue told The Weekly. “When we went to Anglet she said, I won one so if I get knocked out early that’s okay and she just kept going and we just kept laughing about it. “I think she was more relaxed and had no pressure which made a huge difference because she’s so young and she’s not scared to be progressive - she went for airs and massive turns.” Sue said that she won despite not landing the airs. “Even in the final at Anglet she went for a huge air but her foot just slipped off - she won it on turns,” she said. “I think Anglet in the final against Pauline Ado - she lives

there and Zahli thought she didn’t have much chance so she said she was just going to go for it. “It seesawed back and forth and was a great final and Zahli won she handled the fans better the second time.” Sue said that when Zahli surfed the next event in Spain, she was exhausted after surfing 15 heats in a row and made the fourth round. “Now she’s off to Huntington for the ISA juniors where you surf for your country - she classes it as the worst wave she’s ever surfed but she loves it over there because she loves Trestles,” Sue said. “After that she has the last QS6000 for the year in Port Stephens on November 7 and the big one - the WSL World Juniors in Taiwan in December. “She qualified by winning the Australasian Pro Junior series only the top two girls from each WSL region qualify for this event.” “Her goals this year were to win the Australasian title and to be in the top 50 in the QS in the world and she’s jumped from 77 to 33 so she’s really happy with how she’s done plus she got to surf at the Surf Ranch and her airs have progressed which is what she loves. “The sport is progressing and she wants to progress with it.”

Men of League Bowls Day at Coolangatta FORMER CHEEKY livewire Wests Magpies’ halfback Greg Cox is reported to have been seen practising bowls at the Coolangatta club. Cox, who hates to be beaten at anything, is an organiser for the 11th Tweed District Men Of League Bowls Day at Coolangatta on Sunday, October 28. “Numbers have increased each year and I can’t see why this year will be any different,” Cox said.

“The Coolangatta club has been very supportive as this is one of the major fundraising days on our calendar. “Two years back we had an increase in lady bowlers and last years there were more family teams. “We will announce the inaugural winner of the John Strong awards for community service.

“Again we have been lucky enough to have secured the service of Shine and Panda who will be in charge of the barbecue.” The triples competition day starting with registration at 9.15am (Qld time) cost $30 and includes the use of the latest bowls, lunch and some refreshment. Cox said a great day was guaranteed.
