This week... From the editor Basking in the glory of Floriade’s NightFest on a balmy Sunday evening, I missed watching the controversial NRL Grand Final. Two of our CW team who attended the big game said that prior to kick-off, the atmosphere at the packed stadium was electric and the sound deafening, amplified by the spirited Viking Clap. By contrast, the feeling postmatch was flat – from supporters of both sides. After all, most winners want to feel they’ve won fair and square. Say no more. What bothers me more was the Raiders’ Jack Wighton being booed while accepting the Clive Churchill Medal. When Raiders coach Ricky Stuart labelled the booing Roosters’ fans as “wombats”, he insulted wombats. It is well past time to stamp out booing of champions at sports games. I’d like to think it’s “unAustralian” – but shamefully, it isn’t. Reasons to be grateful this past week include meeting multi-media artist Samuel Leighton-Dore at the opening of his compelling – and timely – exhibition, Crying in the League Club, at Ambush Gallery Kambri on Thursday night, a fascinating time walking 16km of the ACT’s northern border on day one of the Conservation Council ACT’s 20-day Walk the Border fundraising odyssey, a perfect Sunday evening at Floriade NightFest, and a charming day exploring some of the treasures to be found in Binalong, Bowning and Yass on the Monday public holiday. - Julie Samaras

news Controversy mars Raiders’ grand final loss The underdogs came undone, the favourites claimed back-toback premierships, and what was an absorbing NRL grand final became marred in refereeing controversy. Perched high in the sky at ANZ Stadium on Sunday 6 October, there was clear support for the Canberra Raiders in their first grand final appearance in 25 years. Resounding cheers rang around the stadium, there was an energetic Viking Clap, and raucous boos for their opponents. But, unfortunately, it was not to be their day. As the clock ticked down, the Canberra Raiders had the ProvanSummons Trophy within their reach,

At a glance The Roosters defeated the Raiders 14-8 after leading 8-6 at halftime. A late second-half try to James Tedesco against the run of play proved the difference as the Roosters claimed back-to-back premierships in front of an 82,922 strong crowd at ANZ Stadium, Sydney.

Best on ground Despite the result, Jack Wighton was recognised as best on ground, claiming the Clive Churchill Medal, only the fourth player to do so from a losing team. After a tumultuous 2018, which saw Wighton receive a suspended jail sentence for a drunken assault at a nightclub and banned for 10 matches, he has had a remarkable season after a positional switch from fullback to five-eighth. The successful transition has seen Wighton rewarded with a State of Origin debut for NSW and he was named in the Australian squad alongside teammates Nick Cotric and Josh Papalii. 16

only for it to be snatched away. Plenty has already been made of the refereeing decisions – the early incident when the ball ricocheted into the Roosters’ trainer (expect to see some rule changes in the off-season) and the last tackle debacle call #sixagain – but the Raiders had their opportunities. They were unable to capitalise on their advantage when Roosters’ playmaker Cooper Cronk was in the sin-bin (credit to the Roosters’ defence), while Joey Leilua missed a golden opportunity to put Jordan Rapana over in the corner. This is not to say the loss didn’t hurt. It was written on the players’ faces, there were tears from the

The Raiders’ on-field success has also translated to representative selection for Elliott Whitehead and Ryan Sutton named in the England squad for the upcoming World Cup Nines, while Corey Horsburgh and Emre Guler have been named in the Junior Kangaroos side.

Sia’s a winner Even before kick-off, Sia Soliola was a winner, named as the recipient of this year’s Ken Stephens Medal.

fans (yours truly included), but there was also pride. Those passing through Olympic Park after the match may have been confused about who had won; there were Raiders chants, the Viking Clap rang out, and there was a genuine feeling of ‘we’ll be back’. The Green Machine will

take a lot out of the grand final experience and, with the players on hand, there is no doubt they will continue to push for a premiership title. To all those who hopped on the bandwagon, stay on board. There are some exciting times ahead for the Raiders. - Allison Turnbull

The award recognises the efforts of an NRL player who has not only achieved on the field, but has committed time off the field to community projects. Soliola’s citation describes his involvement in an extensive range of activities including Shave for a Cure, NRLD School Holiday Clinic and McHappy Day as part of his club commitments. In addition, he works each Monday in the Early Morning Centre’s Soup Kitchen; has donated his time to the Vinnie’s CEO Sleepout; is an ambassador for children with Angelman’s Syndrome and Menslink, and has also been involved with Kulture Break.

Recognition for Raiders

Sia Soliola was named as this year’s Ken Stephens Medal winner on 6 October, recognising his contributions to the community. Getty.

The Raiders had a number of nominees at the Dally M awards night on Wednesday 2 October, however the only success came for John Bateman named in the second-row for Team of the Year honours. Other nominees included: Jarrod Croker (Captain and Centre of the Year), Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad

Local support While a large contingent of supporters travelled to Sydney for the grand final, there was plenty of support back home. Around 400 people watched the match unfold on the big screen set up outdoors at Raiders Belconnen, with more watching inside. The club also hosted the Raiders on Tuesday 8 October, providing fans the opportunity to welcome the team home, hear from the players and celebrate their achievements this season.

A popular choice According to Telstra, the Canberra Raiders topped the charts as the most streamed team in the 2019 home-and-away season, with supporters logging 43.5 million minutes in the NRL Live official app and Telstra Live Pass.

capital hill Freedoms at stake eekly demonstrations in Hong Kong for democratic freedoms are now into their sixth month. They are having a serious impact on the city’s economy and reputation as an international business centre, tourism mecca and airline hub. But for the thousands who are defying what they see as Beijing’s puppet government, it is a small price to pay. On our nightly news, masked protestors make it crystal clear they have lost faith in President Xi Jinping’s commitment to or understanding of the “one country, two systems” policy guaranteed when Britain handed back the island to the mainland. The British legacy of the rule of law, the independence of the courts, a free media and free speech has been slowly but surely eroded since the July 1997

handover. The irony is their very existence has made it easier for mainland China to do business with the rest of the world. Investors can feel more confident if disputes can be resolved in courts truly separated from the government. What these protests show is people who have tasted freedom will not be beguiled by the offer of personal prosperity in return for political restrictions in a one party state. In southern China’s other mega cities like Shanghai, there is a greater willingness to accept this so called compact, though some I met there late last year believe the rapid economic development and social changes heralded by Hu Yaobang in the 1980s are stalling. Making the whole situation more problematic is the trade war launched by President Donald Trump. That, of course, is

disrupting world markets as well. But I think it is good to reflect on the broader lessons of the Hong Kong protests in our own context. We like to think of ourselves as a free country. But a free country, by definition, is one where journalists and the media are free to hold governments to account. That means, when journalists receive documents and information from within the bureaucracy that point to wrongdoing, it is in the interests of citizens to be told. But we have seen, particularly since 2001, a gradual erosion of press freedoms in the name of keeping our free society safe. The raids on the ABC and a Newscorp journalist’s Canberra home evidence of this. In both cases, what we have had is the media being hit by the full force of the law for merely doing its job. Like it or not, this is the

Chinese model at work. Then we had late last week the Home Affairs Minister, Peter Dutton, attack climate change protestors in terms very similar to what we are hearing about the Hong Kong demonstrators. He said they should be “named and shamed”, face mandatory jail terms and have their welfare payments stopped. Sure, protestors who cause traffic disruption or break other laws like trespass should face some consequences, but do we really want to shut the right to protest down? Maybe some, sadly, do.

news Public crematorium plans for Gungahlin The ACT Government has announced plans for a publicly operated crematorium at the Gungahlin Cemetery, which will also help meet the needs of the ACT’s multicultural communities. ACT Minister for City Services, Chris Steel, said that during recent consultations, one in 10 who responded commented that their cultural and religious needs were not being met by current services operating in the ACT. “A key finding from the community was that some religious communities in Canberra do not have their needs met when it comes to burial and cremation, particularly our Hindu, Sikh and Jain communities. As an inclusive and welcoming city, this is not good enough,” the Minister said. “We’re committed to ensuring that all Canberrans can access cemetery and crematorium services. We have a

vibrant multicultural community and it’s important that people have access to the services they need here, rather than having to travel interstate.” Member for Yerrabi, Deepak-Raj Gupta, said the proposed crematorium “will help to fulfil one of the significant requirements of the Hindu, Sikh and Jain communities, allowing family members to perform the last rites as per their religious beliefs”. The ACT is the only State or Territory where its primary cemeteries are “interment only”. The ACT has one privately owned crematorium to serve a population of approximately 425,000, but with a current cremation rate of 75%, Mr Steel acknowledged “we need to expand the number of cremation services that are available”. “The community told us that they wanted a publicly run crematorium in Canberra. The Government has

listened and I will appoint the ACT (Public) Cemeteries Authority to build and operate a new public crematorium at Gungahlin Cemetery,” Minister Steel said. Chair of the ACT Public Cemeteries Authority, Stephen Bartos, welcomed the development and said he believed “the ACT can clearly cope with having two crematoriums running side by side. There’s more than enough demand”. He said the facility is about being able to provide “choice” to the community. Mr Steel said they are expecting the new crematorium, which is expected to cost $2 million to build, to be developed over the next 12 months with the potential of services being operational by the end of 2020. The Independent Competition and Regulatory Commission will set prices at the public crematorium and

competitive neutrality principles will be applied to the new public facilities. Overall, Mr Steel said there is room in the market for three to four crematoriums, including potential for services at the Southern Memorial Park (SMP) cemetery to be located on the southside of Canberra. In February of this year, the ACT Government flagged design work was due to start for the SMP this financial year. The site is expected to be designed to allow for a crematorium.

news Top apprentice: ‘Australia needs tradespeople’

2019 ACT Apprentice of the Year James White says his decision to take up an apprenticeship was shaped by the fact he found hands-on work very rewarding. Photo: Denholm Samaras.

The 2019 ACT Apprentice of the Year James White has long held a passion for cutting, shaping and building with his hands. “I was always a tinkerer as a kid. I made coffee tables and bedside tables and things for fun,” he tells Canberra Weekly. “That progressed into radio controlled planes; I was eight years old when I made my first one. “It was something I’ve always enjoyed doing, and, yeah, I guess I’ve just taken it to the next level by doing it as a trade,” Mr White smiles. After finishing secondary school in 2009, he completed a Diploma of Leadership Management and spent five years pursuing a Bachelor of Engineering at ANU while working on campus as a member of the maintenance staff. He says his decision to take up a carpentry apprenticeship was shaped by the fact he found hands-on work more rewarding than the theorybased career path of engineering. “Tertiary education is fantastic, but Australia needs tradespeople, and the CIT’s competent, not yet competent system, means the people who need a bit of extra help will get it.

“The hands-on, practical nature of how CIT is taught works very well, and it produces some really good tradespeople. “There are people I did my course with, who if I was working for myself, I’d be looking to hire straight away.” Mr White says it feels outstanding to be recognised for the amount of work he’s put into his vocational education training. “There’s a lot of hard work going into completing an apprenticeship; this is a really good way to reward the hard work I’ve put in.” He says the skills he’s learned through his apprenticeship have provided the foundation for a rewarding career. “I’ll do a day’s work and I’ll have built a deck or a pergola or something, you look back and go ‘oh yeah, that’s really nice work’. “The client’s really happy, or I’m really happy if I’ve done it at my place … it’s very fulfilling.” Mr White now progresses to the Australian Training Awards, to be held in Brisbane on 21 November. - Denholm Samaras

Overcoming the hidden cost of mental health stigma The stigma associated with mental ill-health doesn’t just affect those living with mental health conditions – it affects businesses, too. Ironically, employer fears that hiring people with mental health conditions will add unnecessary cost to their businesses are exposing them to significant financial hits. They are also missing out on some highly sought-after benefits. One in five Australians are affected by mental illness annually, so it’s safe to say the majority of Australian businesses already employ people with mental ill-health. But thanks to stigma, these conditions regularly go undisclosed. This means that employers are often oblivious to the presence of mental ill-health among their prospective and existing staff and unaware of the hidden costs of not supporting these employees. Research from Beyond Blue shows that mental health is the issue Australian workers feel most uncomfortable discussing with their managers. It’s easy to understand why, when the most common messages that I hear from employers influenced by mental health stigma are: “It will cost too much in absenteeism” and “I can’t afford to have unreliable staff”. The reality is, stigma around mental health is already costing employers. According to PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC), untreated mental health conditions are costing Australian workplaces around $11 billion per year. Don’t think you can afford to have “unreliable staff?” PwC estimates that there could be an average $2.30 benefit to businesses for every dollar spent on investing in “mentally healthy” workplaces. And let’s not forget the widely acknowledged benefits of hiring people with disability, which includes higher staff engagement and retention, greater productivity, less time off and

enhanced brand reputation. Employers can’t afford to ignore the value of embracing diversity and being open and supportive to their staff’s mental health needs. The good news is that through the governmentfunded Disability Employment Services (DES), businesses can obtain tailored support to build sustainable, inclusive workforces and navigate the government funding available. Thursday 10 October is World Mental Health Day and this year’s theme is: Do you see what I see? So, as a person who spends every day working with employers and job seekers living with mental health conditions, let me take the opportunity to tell you what I see. Currently about 40% of participants seeking work through DES list a mental health condition as their primary disability. The true figure is higher when taking secondary disability and unreported and undiagnosed mental health issues into account. What these people represent is untapped potential. Not considering people with mental health conditions for roles cuts off 20% of an employer’s potential candidate pool. When employers take more inclusive approaches to recruitment and looking after their staff, they are able to better support their workforce, get the best from them, save money and benefit from the positive flow-on effects of a diverse workforce. When people with mental health conditions enter stable and supportive employment, not only do their lives and the lives of their friends and families improve, but they’re more likely to see improvements to their mental health. What I see are win-win solutions. About the author: Bryan McCormick is the Chief for Disability Employment Services provider, Workways Australia.

Empowering youth voices The importance of ensuring young peoples’ voices are heard was highlighted at a global YMCA forum in London which was attended by Madeleine Taylor, chief risk officer for the YMCA in Canberra. “I work with young people a little bit but you don’t realise how

much power they have or should have,” Madeleine said. The forum celebrated YMCA’s 175th birthday as well as focusing on how young leaders can help contribute to achieving the United Nations 17 core Sustainable Development Goals under themes

Spring Garden Festival and Open Day

including health, environment, economic empowerment and employment, civic engagement and education. “The (sustainable development) goals give a framework for how we have to fix the issues in the world so it’s an okay place to be,” Madeleine said, acknowledging that youth is key to the future. “The changes that are going to come and solve some of the global problems are going to come from this cohort.” Overall, 48 Australians representing the Y in Australia – almost two-thirds of whom were 31 or under – attended the forum with 10 of the delegates, including Madeleine, keynote speakers, workshop presenters or panelists. Madeleine presented two workshops – one on building personal resilience for young leaders and the other on nonverbal communication techniques for building credibility and

maximising impact. She said these skills are important to empower young people to have their say, especially given statistics suggest that fewer than one in five Australians: feel like their opinions are represented by politicians in government and feel able have a say within their community on important issues all or most of the time. “The evidence is clear,” Madeleine said. “The majority of young people in Australia today feel unheard and unable to have a say. “We also know that when young people are invited to participate and when they are invited to have a say on issues of importance to them, they are highly engaged. And they can be inspiring!” Madeleine is available to present her workshops on request. For more information about YMCA Canberra, visit canberra.ymca.org.au -Allison Turnbull

news Urgent Takata recall The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) has issued an urgent safety alert warning that 20,000 vehicles already under recall for defective Takata airbags are now classified as ‘critical’. In a statement, the ACCC warned that cars with airbags listed as critical “should not be driven”, with the classification meaning “manufacturers have assessed these airbags as being particularly unsafe”. “A Takata airbag misdeployment can result in death or serious injury, even in a minor collision,” the statement read. “Under this urgent recall, drivers are entitled to have their vehicles towed to the

dealership by the manufacturer and have the airbag replaced for free. Drivers may be entitled to a loan vehicle while the airbag is replaced. “We encourage all drivers to check if their vehicle is affected, even if they have checked before, and to act immediately to have their airbag replaced.” The car manufacturers affected are BMW, GM Holden, Honda, Mitsubishi and Toyota. Consumers can check whether their car is affected by visiting ProductSafety.gov.au or IsMyAirbagSafe.com.au, texting 0487 AIRBAG (247224) and following the prompts, or contact the vehicle manufacturer.

Slow down and share the road ACT Policing and the Emergency Services Agency are reminding drivers to slow to 40km/h when passing stationary or slow moving emergency services vehicles displaying a blue or red flashing light as part of the October road safety campaign. Detective Acting Superintendent of Traffic Operations, Marcus Boorman, said the 40km/h speed limit has been adopted to ensure consistency with the speed

applying around other vulnerable road users such as in school zones and at road works. “If the emergency vehicle is on the other side of a divided road, separated by a median strip, you do not need to slow down.” ACT Policing has issued 10 Traffic Infringement Notices and 41 cautions for passing an emergency vehicle too fast since the new laws were introduced. The infringement notice penalty for this offence is $257 and two demerit points.

Community services strategy The ACT Government has kicked off a nine-month process to develop a long-term strategy to guide how community services are delivered in the ACT. The Strengthening Partnerships – Commissioning for Social Impact discussion paper is the first stage of the

process which will set out a commissioning framework to guide how the government and community sector can continue to deliver fundamental services for Canberrans. For more information, visit communityservices.act.gov.au/ strengtheningpartnerships

news A walk in the park for Parkinson’s There is a common misconception that Parkinson’s affects only older people but for those diagnosed with Young Onset Parkinson’s disease, Young@Park provides valuable support. According to Parkinson’s Australia, Young Onset Parkinson’s generally refers to when the condition is diagnosed before the age of 50. Anthony Overs, who founded and convenes a local Young@Park group, said this provides its own set of challenges as a “typical young person with Parkinson’s might have a young family, be mid-career and have a mortgage”. He was inspired to start a local Young@Park group because of a lack of support for young people with the disease.

Established about 18 months ago, it is modelled on similar groups in Queensland and Victoria and, according to Anthony, has “a very simple premise”. “It is an opportunity for young people with Parkinson’s to come together and share experiences.” For Jaymi Kingston, who was diagnosed at 33 years of age, and is now 35, the group provides valuable information specific to Young Onset Parkinson’s, not just Parkinson’s. “Currently there isn’t a lot of information or support, particularly for Young Onset Parkinson’s disease so it’s great to see the Young@Park group starting to push for more awareness,” she said. Jen Harkness, who volunteers with Parkinson’s ACT and was diagnosed in 2014 at age 48, said

Jen Harkness, Jaymi Kingston, Elliott Overs and Anthony Overs are encouraging the Canberra community to attend A Walk in the Park and help fundraise for Parkinson’s ACT. Photo: Kerrie Brewer.

everyone’s Parkinson’s is different and “there is life after diagnosis”, however, there are people who choose to hide their situation. “I know people in our community who are hiding,” she said. “The sad part from that is they don’t get the support and to see people living their life well.” Parkinson’s ACT will hold their biennial major fundraiser, A Walk in the Park, on Sunday 20 October, raising funds to help provide and

expand support for people living with Parkinson’s and their families in the Canberra region. A Walk in the Park starts at 9.30am on Sunday 20 October at Rond Terrace, Commonwealth Park with options including a 5km bridge-tobridge fun run and walk, a timed Nordic Walking race, and a 1.5km walk, roll or stroll in the park.

BurHor advertising moment

Gary and Mark Burgess own and manage BurHor, which has been providing exceptional horticultural services to corporate, government and residential clients in the Canberra region for 32 years.

BurHor: help from the ground up Music was the dream for brothers Mark and Gary Burgess, but their father’s decision to encourage careers in horticulture planted the seeds of success with BurHor (Burgess Horticultural Services) having provided 32 years of service in the Canberra region. The brothers were in the process of completing their HSC when they became selfemployed with BurHor, which started in 1987. “Our older brother (John) was in the horticulture industry and did a trade apprenticeship with City Parks,” Gary says. “He was working for Kerry Packer at his house in Red Hill and our father was proud of what he’d achieved and thought it was a good career path for us to follow.” While there have been challenges along the way, BurHor is a local success story, and of similar businesses that were around back then, Gary says “we are the only ones still here”. In part, the brothers attribute their longevity to surrounding themselves with “great people and great employees” and their willingness and capacity to adapt to change. “We’ve always developed and been ahead of the market with technology, systems and looking to be at the front edge of our service delivery,” Gary says.

And there’s been plenty of hard work along the way. While the brothers shared a love of music, Gary says their father was honest about their aspirations. He told them “if you want to make money out of music, sell your instrument” – but it still had a role to play. The brothers received no wages for the first 12 months they worked in the family business, before receiving a pay raise to $50 per week. The music industry ended up supporting them while they built the business. From humble beginnings of “one service, one client”, BurHor now has seven service divisions and can supply: • Open space management • Amenity horticulture • Tree services • Geographical information services • Landscaping • Waste and equipment hire • Environmental services. While they’ve worked on large-scale projects including Defence contracts, federal and local government projects, the team at BurHor also enjoy the opportunity to tackle residential projects and pride themselves on providing

BurHor offers a range of tree services including stump grinding, removal, assessment and pruning.

exceptional service to all of their clients. Their residential offerings are geared more toward landscape and tree services, such as stump grinding, tree removal, tree assessment, tree pruning and more. “We don’t get bored, we’re always learning, it’s interesting work and we’re passionate about doing a good job,” the brothers say. And you can be sure you’re dealing with an expert and qualified team: Mark and Gary are qualified landscapers, arborists and horticulturalists; the staff are multi-skilled, experienced and fully accredited; and BurHor is ISO accredited for occupational health and safety, quality management systems and environmental management systems. For all your horticultural needs and projects, contact the team at BurHor today on 6238 1930 to see how they can help.

Extinction Rebellion demand action Hundreds of climate change protestors took over Commonwealth Bridge on Monday 7 October to demand real action. According to a Facebook post, the ACT Chapter of the Extinction Rebellion “held the bridge for over an hour in an impressive display of people power, disrupting business as usual to force the government to take notice”. The event follows on from Friday 27 September when Extinction Rebellion ‘swarmed the City’. Their next action will occur on Friday 11 October with 36

a “bike ride starting at 7.45am from Ainslie Football Club, down Northbourne Avenue to London Circuit, ending in a die-in”. Extinction Rebellion calls on the government to: tell the truth by declaring a climate and ecological emergency, working with other institutions to communicate the urgency for change; act now to halt biodiversity loss and reduce greenhouse gas emissions to net zero by 2025; and create and be led by the decisions of a Citizens’ Assembly on climate and ecological justice.

news Firefighting is a family affair for this Googong crew

Firefighting runs in the family for Will, Karen, Eadie (3), Stephen, Flora (2) and Tom Gibbs.

It’s exciting when your dad is a firefighter … but it’s even more unusual when your uncle and grandparents are in on the act too. Eadie (3) and Flora (2) Gibbs, of Little Burra, are seventh generation Googong pioneers and likely to be seventh generation

volunteer firefighters too, along with their dad Tom, Uncle Will and grandparents, Karen and Steve Gibbs. The family are all members of the Jerrabomberra Creek volunteer brigade. Steve joined more than 40 years ago. Now, as Senior Deputy

Captain, he has just returned from fighting raging bushfires in Queensland after recently retiring from his day job as a professional firefighter with ACT Fire Rescue. Fire trucks are the stuff childhood dreams are made of and the big red vehicles will be rolling into Googong for the annual Rural Fire Service open day on Saturday 12 October 10am-2pm. The free family fun day is one of the most popular events on Googong’s colourful social calendar giving everyone the chance to climb the big ladder, make a splash with the giant hose or check their handle on emergency radio. If you’ve always dreamed of being a firefighter, don’t miss your chance to have a go. Bring the family to meet some amazing local heroes and hear about their heartstopping adventures.

The free community party has a serious side too. It’s a great chance to pick up some tips from the experts and make sure your property and loved ones are safe and ready for bushfire season. Crews from Queanbeyan Fire and Rescue will also drop by for a quick chat about fire safety in the home, along with local Landcare, sports groups and wildlife carers, including Aquatots Swim School, Icon Water, Googong Landcare, Tinderry Googong Scouts, Googong Hogs and Wildcare. It’s a great day out and everyone is invited to enjoy the music, jumping castle, sausage sizzle and truck loads of free family fun. Googong Rural Fire Service Open Day is on Saturday 12 October 10am-2pm at Beltana Park, Googong. For details, visit googong.net

Aussie Tradesmen: you’re in safe hands A one-stop shop for any task, Kevin Barnes and his team at Aussie Tradesmen take care of a wide array of work by turning up and doing whatever needs doing. “We do a lot of different jobs ranging from property management for residential and commercial properties, where we might go to fix a door or replace light globes depending on landlord or tenant needs,” Kevin says. “And we go right through to renovating homes, redoing kitchens and bathrooms, and we also do garden maintenance, landscaping, mowing lawns, and basically everything else in between. “You can come to us where we might predominantly look after carpentry work, but where you also need electricians, plumbers, painters, - we organise all of that, too. “That way the customer isn’t having to run around trying to negotiate with a number of people, we organise all of the work and it’s built into the price that we provide the client upfront,” he says. Covering all of the ACT and surrounding NSW towns of Queanbeyan, Bungendore and

Yass, Kevin says that by managing the job in its entirety, it alleviates any potential stress for his clients. “Our customers are really happy because it means there’s a lot less running around for them, it allows them to pass on what their desires or needs are, and then it’s up to us to make sure that we meet that requirement,” he says. “It’s the same for real estate agencies; instead of having to ring around a number of different tradies trying to get them into a particular residence to fix whatever it might be. They just give us a call and we organise all of the work for them.” Kevin says the whole concept behind Aussie Tradesmen is the customer-focused mantra of looking after the customer with professional service and making sure the job is done right. “Firstly, it’s listening to the customer, identifying what their needs are, and ensuring that when you’re carrying out the job that you’re doing what they’re after and what they want,” he says.

providing that little bit of extra service as well. “Recently we did a garden maintenance program – laying mulch and pebbles – then at the end of it we mowed the lawn. It wasn’t part of the job but it ended up giving a really good finish to the job. “The client was extremely happy, and they’ve then since referred on work to us simply because we looked after them,” he says.

news Putting second-hand first A 1970s inspired lounge room is set to pop up around Canberra this month to highlight the importance of putting secondhand first and encouraging people to sign up to this year’s Garage Sale Trail on 19-20 October. ACT designer Candice Addicoat created the 1970s inspired lounge made entirely from second-hand finds donated by The Green Shed. The lounge will visit the #WodenExperiment at Woden Town Square on Friday 11 October 11am, be opposite the Alinga Street Light Rail Stop (14 October) and in City Walk/ Garema Place (15 October). According to Garage Trail Sale co-founder, Andrew Valder, the aim of the Garage Sale Trail is “to make sustainability fun

and social”. “To spread the idea that, ultimately, we are the ones responsible for the waste we create and for the impact we make on the planet both locally and globally. Garage Sale Trail hopes to show people that small actions, done at a scale, can make an important impact and by getting involved with your community, you can amplify the difference made.” Last year, over 10,000 Canberrans participated in Garage Sale Trail, with over 150 tonnes of items reused. This year’s event is on the weekend of 19-20 October and Canberrans are being encouraged to host a sale or shop the Trail with any unsold items being donated to Givit.

Road users can win a daily $50 petrol voucher by spotting riders and sending details of their location to joe.rider@mraact.org.au. “It sounds like a simple campaign, but evidence has shown being aware of motorcycle riders on the road is a key factor to ensuring they remain safe,” QPRC’s Road Safety Officer Jo Wilson-Ridley said. “We’re proud to be teaming up with MRA ACT to spread this vital campaign into the NSW regions as we know motorcyclists enjoy riding our roads and we want to ensure they do this safely.”

QPRC will run ‘Joe Rider’ with the local motorcycle rider training facility ‘Stay Upright’ from 12 to 27 October. Road users can win petrol vouchers by reporting motorcycle sightings on Council’s webpage at www.qprc.nsw.gov.au. GMC will be running ‘Joe Rider’ from 22 to 28 October and will be offering a special mystery prize for the resident who spots Joe the most. “The campaign encourages motorists to be actively aware of motorcycles, reminding car and truck drivers to keep a special eye out for them,” GMC’s Road Safety Officer Tracey Norberg said.

This is an extract from Bish Bash Bosh by Henry Firth and Ian Theasby, HQ Non Fiction, $39.99. Serves: 6 75g cashews 1 400g fresh tiger loaf 2 garlic cloves 1 Tbsp tapioca flour 1½ tsp salt, plus extra for seasoning 3 tsp nutritional yeast 1 tsp apple cider vinegar 150ml warm water 1 sprig fresh rosemary 1 tsp olive oil Black pepper For the herb oil 2 garlic cloves 1 sprig fresh rosemary 1 tsp salt ¼ tsp black pepper 8 Tbsp olive oil Preheat oven to 180°C. Line a baking sheet. Line a 12cm ovenproof dish with parchment paper, and place a small saucepan of water on a medium heat to boil.

Platter up

CW food writer Libby Kimber this week helps you to impress your guests with recipes that are bound to take your cheese platter to the next level.

First, make the cheese. Add the cashews to the pan of hot water and boil for 20 minutes to soften. Remove from the heat, drain and leave to cool. Prepare the loaf. Use a bread knife to cut even slices across the top of the loaf, 3cm apart, making sure you don’t cut all the way through as the base needs to remain intact. Turn the loaf 90 degrees and cut across the first slices to make a criss-cross pattern. To make the herb oil, peel and roughly chop the garlic. Remove the

leaves from the rosemary by running your thumb and forefinger from the top to the base of the stem (the leaves should easily come away) and finely chop. Put the garlic, rosemary, salt and pepper into a mortar and bash them with the pestle to make a paste (or put the ingredients in a small bowl and use the end of a rolling pin). Pour the olive oil into the mortar and mix with a fork. Put the loaf on the baking sheet. Use a pastry brush or teaspoon to drizzle the herb oil deep inside the cuts. Put the baking sheet in the oven and cook for 25-30 minutes, until golden and toasted. Meanwhile, finish the cheese. Peel 1 of the garlic cloves and put it in a liquidiser (blender). Add the drained cashews, tapioca flour, salt, nutritional yeast, apple cider vinegar and warm water. Blend to a smooth cream. Pour the cashew cream into a saucepan, taste and season with salt and pepper. Put the saucepan on a medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes, until slightly thickened. Pour into the parchment-lined dish. Peel the remaining garlic clove and cut it into sticks. Remove the rosemary needles. Gently push the garlic sticks and rosemary needles into the top of the cashew cheese so that they stick out the top. Drizzle over the olive oil and sprinkle over a little black pepper. When ready to serve, put the cashew cheese in the oven alongside the bread and bake for the final 12-15 minutes, until the cheese has formed a skin and the colour has darkened. Remove and serve immediately.

Preheat oven to 180°C. Prepare the brie by shaving off the top of the white rind on one side. Position onto a tray lined with baking paper, then arrange blackberries and scatter small dollops of blackberry compote in between the berries. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until the brie is soft and gooey. Sprinkle with pistachio nuts and desired herbs. Serve immediately.

Blackberry compote 1 cup blackberries ¼ cup caster sugar 1 Tbsp lemon or orange juice 1 Tbsp water or Chambord (optional) 1 tsp vanilla bean paste

Place blackberries, caster sugar, lemon, water and vanilla in a saucepan and simmer over a low heat until sugar has dissolved and has thickened slightly, approximately 5-10 minutes. Do not boil. It will continue to thicken slightly as it cools. Transfer bowl of compote to fridge and leave at least 1-2 hours before serving.

Linton Manor: a Yass local treasure A few words immediately spring to mind when describing Linton Manor – elegant, eclectic and easygoing – and are all apt when talking about the 170-year-old estate. One of Yass’ local treasures that’s situated right near the heart of town, the historic home and its sprawling gardens can be enjoyed by the public in a rich profusion of ways – with a café, restaurant, functions, weddings, Airbnb lodging, and historical tours all to be found on site. Director Aiden Jitts says he and his family have carefully restored the property to its former glory since they purchased it. “Over the past 13 years we’ve slowly but surely brought the property up to what you see today,” Aiden says. “Everything here was done properly, there were no shortcuts taken and the idea was for the property to continue standing for at least another 200 years.”

Beautifully restored, Linton Manor in Yass offers a café, restaurant, Airbnb accommodation and caters to functions for up to 300 guests.

Functions/weddings

Airbnb

During the day, Linton Manor operates a family-based café where everyone is warmly welcome to stop in and enjoy their famous scones with premium quality tea or coffee, or any number of other home-made food options. With a focus on both sustainability and enjoying your surrounds, they offer no takeaway options, instead encouraging guests to sit either indoors our outside in the picturesque courtyard, relax, and take in the wonder and charm surrounding them. “We started the café after getting a feel for Yass and seeing what people wanted,” Aiden says. “Everything is table service. The menu is designed with food prices ranging from $8 to $30. There is sure to be something for everyone.”

Set in the manor’s magnificent French ballroom, Linton Manor’s restaurant brings everything back to the 1920s, which, according to Aiden, was when the ballroom was in its prime. “We thought ‘we’ve got to do something with this’, so we acquired tablewear, linen, cutlery and glasses all to match, and then brought the ballroom up to scratch,” he says. Open by reservation only, their Executive Chef Sean Bell creates a number of pan-European dishes, with a seasonal menu that rotates almost nightly. “We are working on growing our own food and poultry on site, so guests can always be assured of quality and freshness!,” Aiden says. Both the café and restaurant currently use only fresh, local produce direct from suppliers within 150km of Yass.

Linton Manor, its ballroom, courtyard, and two-and-a-half acres of sprawling, landscaped gardens are available to host a wide variety of functions or weddings with a capacity of 100 guests in our ballroom, and 300 guests in our gardens. “We do all sorts of functions, weddings, host community groups, wakes, conferences, baby showers; we even hosted the 2019 Yass Valley Business Chamber Awards just earlier this year,” Aiden says.

One of the original bedrooms of the house that’s been recently renovated, Linton Manor’s Airbnb suite is a large, light-filled, spacious area with a walk-in wardrobe, sunny seating area and ensuite bathroom. The highly private suite has its own external access to the front of the house, and is perfect for couples wanting a weekend away.The room features a custom-built queen size four-poster bed on a majestic teak frame, a beautiful dressing table, electric fireplace, stained glass windows and elegant furnishings.

Get the kids back to school with these cute and tasty recipes for the lunchbox or after-school snacks.

5 raisins 2 thin slices of celery stalk

To make the rabbit, monkey and bear, spread the nut butter on half of the puffed grain cakes. To make the cat, dog and owl, spread mashed avocado on the remaining cakes. Then arrange fruit, berries and vegetables as pictured. Or, follow your imagination and create new animals. Eat them straight away. If you’re storing these in a lunchbox, you probably want to squeeze over a little lemon juice to prevent the fruit from turning brown, and expect the grain cakes to go a little softer instead of crisp, but kids usually don’t mind.

A helping hand: If you prep the ingredients, the kids can create and decorate faces on the cakes themselves.

Sweet potato and spinach muffins Makes: 12 muffins

3 eggs

Active prep: 20 mins

2 handfuls (50g) baby spinach

Start to finish: 45 mins

2 soft dates, pitted

1 sweet potato, peeled and coarsely grated

New breakfast and toastie menu has arrived!

180ml (¾ cup) plain unsweetened yoghurt 125ml (½ cup) olive oil

160g (1¼ cups) buckwheat flour, sifted

2 tsp lemon zest

100g (1 cup) oat flour

75g (½ cup) pumpkin seeds (pepitas)

2 tsp baking powder

2 tsp runny honey or maple syrup

1 tsp ground ginger

1 Tbsp olive oil

½ tsp sea salt

¼ tsp sea salt

Topping

Preheat the oven to 200°C. Grease a 12-hole muffin tin and line it with baking parchment or paper muffin cases. Alternatively, use a silicone muffin tin. Put the sweet potato in a large bowl along with the rest of the dry ingredients. Stir together, make a well in the middle and set aside. Crack the eggs into a food processor, add the spinach along with the rest of the wet ingredients and blend until completely smooth. Pour the wet mixture into the well of the dry ingredients, gently fold together and set aside, making sure not to overmix, as the muffins will turn out tough otherwise. To prepare the topping, put all of the ingredients in a small bowl, stir together and set aside. Spoon the muffin batter into the prepared tin and top each muffin with a couple of teaspoons of the topping. Bake for 25 minutes, until golden and springy or until a skewer inserted in the middle of one of the muffins comes out clean. Remember to turn the tin around halfway through the cooking time to ensure that the muffins bake evenly. Once cooked, remove from the oven and set aside to cool slightly in the tin, before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely or devouring while still warm!

Lunchbox tips Nutritionist and dietitian Susie Burrell says a nutritious lunch will help kids concentrate and stay on task throughout the day. She partnered with Don Smallgoods to give us some tips for preparing the perfect lunchbox: • For younger children, lunchboxes are all about bite sized, visually appealing options that taste great. Where possible, cut food into small pieces and choose as many different colours to encourage your children to try a range of nutritious foods. • Use chopped up fruit and vegetable pieces or cubes of cheese in rolled up meats. • Children are more likely to enjoy what’s in their lunchbox when they have played a role in determining what’s included. You can get them involved

by asking them to help bake homemade mini muffins or banana bread. Always ask them what their favourite sandwich filling is or consult on which fruit and vegetables they prefer. • When packing a lunch, remember it is important to include some protein rich options. You can also try snacks of yoghurt, cheeses or beans to keep little tummies full and satisfied throughout the day whilst also helping to regulate blood glucose levels to aid concentration at school. • Don’t be afraid to mix it up with occasional treats and fun foods. This will help your little ones to learn that good nutrition is all about balancing the daily nutritious foods with sometimes foods.

Comedy legend Ferguson’s still on a roll One of Canberra’s finest comedy exports is returning home to give audiences a fascinating insight into his remarkable life later this month. Tim Ferguson’s acclaimed new solo sit down/ stand-up comedy show, A Fast Life on Wheels, is about his own experiences living with Multiple Sclerosis, and more broadly about getting people to laugh at the problems we face in life. “I have MS, which is no fun, but we all have to face them and overcome them somehow, and the best strategy I’ve found is to poke fun at problems,” he tells Canberra Weekly. “It could be male pattern baldness, sore ankles, or just people and just our short tempers; whatever it is, it’s best dealt with by laughing, which is why the show is funny, it’s more effective. “I could sit there and play a tiny violin but even that would look funny after a minute,” he says. Ferguson says his show also deals with mortality in a blunt fashion that’s garnered a number of different reactions from audiences. “Grown men will burst into tears and sob, and then they’ll be sobbing and laughing at the same time. “Mortality is always a handy topic in comedy because it’s something everyone has in common, apart from millennials, they haven’t quite worked out that it’s coming.

“But for my generation, it’s an important topic because it’s starting to weigh on their minds. My approach is very simple, ignore it,” he says. Despite acknowledging how difficult it is, Ferguson says he’s found having MS has been “enormously beneficial” to his quality of life for a number of reasons. “I know what to worry about and what to ignore, so it’s narrowed the focus of my worries. I don’t really worry about first world problems. “If my coffee is cold, I drink it. If the traffic light is red, I wait. I’m a much happier, more positive and productive person not worrying about the little stuff. People should try it,” he says. Through A Fast Life on Wheels, Ferguson also seeks to break down the stigma many hold toward people living with disability. “People with disabilities can be enormously effective; look at Dylan Alcott, the guy is a wheelchair tennis champion, most tennis players wouldn’t be able to do what he’s done. “People with all kinds of illnesses and disabilities are leading highly productive lives, so we have to change people’s perspective on that, and my show touches on that,” he says. Ferguson is well known for beginning to forge his highly successful comedy career here as a member of the musical comedy group, Doug

Anthony Allstars (DAAS), back in the 1980s. He says busking with DAAS in Garema Place is one of his fondest memories of his time living here. “It was always great fun. We set fire to ourselves, we stole people’s handbags and camera, sometimes they never came to collect them … We’d kidnap audience members and demand a ransom – only $2 – but we meant it. “Garema Place is still a place that looks like the zombie apocalypse has cleaned all humans from the face of the earth, so it was always fun gathering the shoppers and making them dance and sing and cause trouble,” he says. While in town, Ferguson will conduct his Comedy Writing Masterclass, a one-day course where he explains the fundamental principles of comedy. “Instinctively, young comedians do it all by themselves, the things that work are the same in any culture, language, any topic at any age, it’s just that they’re human. So my job is just to save people a lot of time guessing,” he says. Tim Ferguson’s A Fast Life on Wheels comes to The Street, City West on 19 October 8pm; thestreet.org.au His Comedy Writing Masterclass will run at Ainslie Arts Centre, Braddon, 20 October 9am-5pm; $200 via trybooking.com/BFURM - Denholm Samaras 55

What was the experience like to create this set list of all these smash hits? It was born from working with Andrew Farris again last year, when we both shared the stage raising money for Rural Aid. We played a couple of INXS songs together, and he said to me ‘you need to play more of them in your

I’m an immigrant like 99.9% of Australians.

How have you seen the music industry change since when you started? In my day we came from old school where you had to learn the instrument long before you even dared get on stage, you were practising the instruments in your bedrooms. Today they have whole orchestras at their fingertips. The technology is a creative tool that, when used properly, is wonderful; there’s a lot more artists out there and that’s fantastic. How is a theatre gig different to a stadium or a pub gig for you as a performer? It’s 100% from us every time, we hit the stage at 100mph wherever we are.

Canberran Elena Kirschbaum’s Rouge is a “circus show for grown-ups” that covers an array of circus skills and is playful at heart. Photo: Mark Turner.

Painting the town Rouge Combining acrobatics, operatic cabaret and burlesque, Canberra arts legend Elena Kirschbaum created the highly acclaimed Rouge two years ago. Kirschbaum describes it as “circus for grown-ups” that covers a wide array of skills and is playful at heart. “There’s that sense that if you’re making something for adults it needs to be sophisticated, a bit dry … what’s different about our show is we don’t take ourselves too seriously. “Audiences get a real sense that they get to know the performers on a real level, and that makes it quite an intimate and special experience,” she says. As creative director, Kirschbaum says while she came up with the broad concept and vision for Rouge, from there she engaged in a creative process with the cast of six performing artists. “When people came up with ideas we never shut them down, just gave them a go. We tried to keep the process really open so people could explore any ideas they had. “What came out of it is a show that is more open-minded and explores more stories than you

would usually see because it came from the creative vision of a number of people.” A “circus show for grown-ups”, Kirschbaum says Rouge is vastly different from the two conventional circus shows, the traditional big top or the contemporary Cirque du Soleil style. “We wanted to give this show a tagline to let people know it’s completely different, it’s not a family-friendly circus, and for adults this is a fun night out with a group of friends or on date night. “This is a bit more of a twist than what you’d expect to see from a circus,” she says. Kirschbaum credits Canberra for providing her with a fantastic environment to develop the performing skills she’s used throughout her career. “It’s a small place, there’s a lot of opportunities and it’s a very vibrant and supportive arts community. “Canberra has something that’s really special and unique and gave me a headstart I really couldn’t have gotten in a big city,” she says. Rouge will be performed at the Canberra Theatre, 23-26 October; canberratheatrecentre.com.au - Denholm Samaras

Jeff Popple reviews three new novels about ghosts, farming and the dark side of coastal living. More of Jeff’s reviews can be found on his blog: murdermayhemandlongdogs.com The Shape of Night by Tess Gerritsen Bantam, $32.99

Tess Gerritsen is best known for her popular series about homicide detective Jane Rizzoli and medical examiner Dr Maura Isles. In her latest novel, however, she leaves her detective duo behind and heads instead into the realm of romantic suspense. Successful cookery author Ava Collette flees her Boston apartment after a tragic event and heads to a coastal village in Maine to write her new book and forget about what happened. She rents an old, isolated seaside mansion known as Brodie’s Watch, but instead of peace she encounters a ghost and becomes involved in a modern mystery. Engaging, easy flowing and highly enjoyable.

Work your body and brain, with music and laughter to accompany you all the way!

Wearing Paper Dresses by Anne Brinsden Macmillan, $32.99

Melbourne author Anne Brinsden makes a strong debut with her powerful novel about life on the Mallee where “droughts are as eternal … as the salt and the sand”. Urbane Elise was not meant for the harsh reality of farm life in the 1950s. Transplanted to northern Victoria when her husband returns home to work the family farm, she struggles to adjust, much to the detriment of her wild daughters as they grow up. When tragedy strikes, the youngest daughter, Marjorie, must decide where her heart truly belongs. A heart-warming and evocative tale about life on the land.

A U S T R A L I A’ S

Silver by Chris Hammer

Now showing Joker (MA15+) In 1981, Arthur Fleck (Joaquin Phoenix) lives with his mother, Penny (Frances Conroy) in crime-ridden Gotham City. Fleck works as a party clown, but also suffers from a neurological disorder that causes him to laugh at inappropriate times. Gotham’s economic downturn is leaving segments of the population disenfranchised and impoverished. After some young adults severely beat Fleck, he loses his access to his social services and therefore, medication. To help, Fleck’s co-worker loans him a gun, which leads him down a path to his tragic destiny. Heath Ledger won a posthumous Academy Award thanks to his performance as Joker in Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight. With nightmarish smeared makeup and full of

clicks and ticks, Ledger’s Joker was likened to the shark in Jaws: a fully-formed antagonist without an arc, coming in and out of the movie’s action. Phoenix’s Joker is all origin story. We see Fleck living in poverty with his unwell mother as he becomes a victim to a society and a system that cares little for people like him: poor, unemployed and mentally ill. Heavily influenced by Martin Scorsese’s Taxi Driver and The King of Comedy, Fleck organically spirals into his ultimate transformation. Director Todd Phillips of The Hangover films apes the look of a 1970s-era Scorsese movie while delivering a commentary on contemporary American politics and the cause of a society’s frustration and anger. Verdict: Brutal, uncomfortable viewing. A brave new way forward for DC movies. 4.5 stars. - Luke McWilliams

Gender bending Japanese theatre

... rather a challenge, to achieve the unthinkable. To drive cars worth just $1,000 across Australia via some of its most formidable roads, all in the name of charity. This year, all the teams are driving their shitboxes from Melbourne to Townsville, via Birdsville. Team Brindabella, Local Canberrans Jeremy Maher and Charlie Tizzard are taking part in this years Rally and are extremely proud to raise funds for Cancer Council. The fundraising is the hard part, so any donation you can give is greatly appreciated. To donate and to follow, head to:

The Australian National University’s Za Kabuki theatre is set to open its 2019 season with a newly created performance that showcases gender bending at its finest. On 11-13 October, ANU Za Kabuki presents Old Timers, a heartwarming comedy set during Japan’s Edo Period. ANU Za Kabuki’s performances maintain the traditional feeling of kabuki theatre whilst providing twists for a modern Australian

audience, including stage effects and live ‘subtitling’. The troupe is run by ANU students who study or have an interest in Japan and Japanese language. It is the longest running Kabuki group in the southern hemisphere and has been performing for 42 years in Canberra and Australia to share Japanese culture, and to deepen knowledge and understanding of the art amongst local and national audiences. ANU Za Kabuki’s Old Timers will be presented at Canberra REP Theatre, Acton, 11-13 October; bit.ly/Kabuki2019

Opening up a world of Possibility Three of Canberra’s youngest voices will earn a place on the stage this October thanks to an exciting new project at Canberra Youth Theatre. Three emerging young writers are being mentored by local playwright, Cathy Petocz, to create an original work for a large teenage ensemble, directed by Anna Johnstone and Luke Rogers. The play, which takes the form of a mosaic of micro scenes, is called Possibility. It interweaves a diverse collection of narratives, genres and styles from political fantasy fiction to gentle existential poetics, to absurd and surprising drama. Petocz says the process of working with the emerging writers was a very enriching experience. “This form is really exciting because it means that we could hone each individual writer’s skills and work on refining their voices rather than homogenising them for the sake of one story,” she says. Possibility will be performed 17-19 October at Ralph Wilson Theatre, Gorman Arts Centre, Braddon; cytc.net/production/ possibility

The V.I.Pooch experience Taking your dog to a hotel seems like it’s bound to end badly, especially if you own a (sometimes) naughty miniature dachshund. But when we found out Ovolo Hotels are now ‘pooch friendly’, and offer a V.I.Pooch package, we had to give it a go. We took Charles the dachshund (and V.I.Pooch) to Ovolo Nishi in New Acton to experience the package and see whether or not you should, in fact, take your dog to a hotel. Earlier this year, Ovolo’s V.I.Pooch

package was rolled out around all Ovolo hotels in Hong Kong and Australia, with dog-friendly rooms available for an additional $80 per night (I don’t know how much a kennel is because Charles would stage a rebellion if I put him in one, but I have heard dog vacations can almost cost more than human ones). “We’re thrilled to offer this unique perk to extend our ethos of effortless living. Trips are more fun with your best friend, so why put your V.I.Pooch in a kennel?” said Ovolo Hotels Group founder and CEO, Girish Jhunjhnuwala, at the time of the launch. “Your furry friend can snuggle into their own bed and dig into a special doggie bag curated just for them. It doesn’t get more pawesome than that.” And the Ovolo team have done a great job at making Nishi feel welcoming for furry friends; the staff were super excited for Charles’ arrival

Charles, the Canberra Weekly dachshund, on the job at Ovolo Nishi, feeling like a Very Important Pooch.

(even when he barked at them), guests didn’t bat an eye when they were greeted with a sausage dog in the elevator and, the best bit, in-house restaurant Monster is dog-friendly – guests can take their meals in the library and dine in the company of their pooch (we did not do this, Charles has been known to attempt to pinch other people’s bacon at cafés). He was even given a fluffy bed of his own for the night, a goodie bag full of treats, and bottled water to fill up his

personal bowls (talk about spoilt!). All in all, once the stress of having your pet in a fancy hotel has worn off, it’s a really pleasant experience to enjoy with your pooch. And, if your budget can swing it (and you trust your dog enough), it seems like a rather nice alternative to shelling out for a kennel. Editor’s note: Libby Kimber (and Charles) stayed overnight as guests of Ovolo Nishi. - Libby Kimber

How often to you stop to notice and savour the world around you? Let’s start with the natural world; do you know what phase the moon is in right now or the name of the highest mountain or tallest tree you can see outside? We live in an era when our attention is the subject of unprecedented competition. Did you know that all social media platforms, apps and mobile games are engineered to monopolise your time? They are developed to be addictive, all the better to make you keep coming back for more. It’s the digital equivalent of the supermarket putting the essential items like milk and bread at the back of the store or the labyrinth you must navigate to find the exit at Ikea. Now, if you’re completely satisfied and content with how your life is at the present moment then don’t change a thing. However, if you’re not, then I encourage you to notice and play around with where you place your attention. It starts with catching yourself in the moment before you might normally reach for your mobile phone or switch on the TV.

The joy of discovering beauty in your immediate surroundings is you’ve now enriched your everyday experience. It was there all the while, yet you were missing out. Have you ever noticed when you buy a new car you suddenly see the make and model you’re driving everywhere? It’ because the mind is now predisposed to notice it. It works the same way if you train yourself to look for beauty, you’ll start to see it everywhere. I’ll leave the final words to the celebrated poet Mary Oliver, who spent a lifetime noticing and appreciating the little things most of us are too busy to see: “Instructions for living a life.

TOP TIP: How to choose between a candle or diffuser? Ecoya general manager Claire Barnes says candles need space to ‘breathe’ so aren’t always suited to small, enclosed spaces, and diffusers work well in areas where there is airflow such as an entrance way. Diffusers are also suited for bathrooms so you can enjoy consistent fragrance. 72

What are the elements that make a great spring/summer scent? Floral notes, such as waterflowers, peach and hyacinth, have a freshness in their aroma and can awaken your senses, helping you revive and reset. - Kirsten Walker, Palm Beach Collection

Diffusers are suited for bathrooms so you can enjoy consistently fragranced air.

Making scents of home fragrance There is nothing better than walking into a home that smells amazing. To help you make ‘scents’ of home fragrance we went to the experts…

What are the key tips and trends on home fragrances? With design at the moment, one of the biggest things is layers and textures, you may not think this is something you can do in your home but it is very simple. Every room doesn’t have to have the same fragrance; if you love gardenias you don’t have stick to only that fragrance in the house but what you should do is stick to the base scent of that candle. One room may have gardenia, the next orange blossom and the next jasmine as they all have a citrus and a strong blossom scent that work well together. The fragrances are individual enough to stand out but not clash when the layers of scents change in an adjoining room. - Shaynna Blaze, interior design expert How do you choose the right home fragrance? Look at the location you want the scent to

enhance. For breezy areas, choose something light and fresh. Or if your space is more intimate and cosy, go for something more sweet and comforting. When choosing between a candle or a diffuser, look at your surrounds and consider the practicality. A window sill that might have fresh air coming in would suit a diffuser or, if you have young children, a diffuser is always a safer option. What diffusers don’t do well is offer ambience and atmosphere, whereas a candle can. - Kirrily Grocott, freedom Fyshwick interior designer What common mistakes do people make when burning candles in their home? Not trimming their wick! We can’t express the importance of maintaining a short wick to get the most out of your candle. It is also really important candles are not burnt when there is 10mm of wax or less remaining in the jar. Although it is tempting to continue burning your candle until the wax is gone, we strongly advise against this as the flame needs a solid base of wax to avoid overheating the glass jar. - Claire Barnes, Ecoya general manager

Creating a diverse and healthy garden landscape in your backyard helps store carbon and reduce greenhouse emissions.

Carbon storage in urban environments Plants, especially trees in our urban landscape and backyards, have the ability to absorb and store carbon over many years. In fact, healthy forests, especially those with a diversity of plants, animals, fungi and organic matter, play a critical

role in regulating greenhouse gas emissions in the atmosphere. Having green spaces in our urban environments enables us to: • Offset daily human activities which contribute to greenhouse gas emissions;

• •

Create thriving plant and animal ecosystems; Create a more protected and energy efficient urban environment. By having thoughtfully designed and situated green spaces, we

help protect our city and homes from damaging winds, hot summer suns, bitter winter frosts and airborne pollutants such as dust and traffic fumes. To put matters into perspective, a healthy 8m Eucalyptus tree with a 40cm diameter has the potential to sequester one tonne of carbon in its lifetime! Due to increased volume and ability to photosynthesise, larger longerlived trees with broader crowns store more carbon than smaller ones. Indigenous plant species, which are more likely to thrive in local conditions, often store

Things you need to know before planting for carbon storage in your backyard •

•

Consider any potential risks, e.g. ensure trees aren’t planted too close to buildings, that they won’t impact on your home’s solar potential, and they don’t pose an undue fire risk; Draw up a planting plan and plant species list to take the guesswork out of how many plants are needed and which varieties are best suited; Plants, especially trees, should be allowed room to grow and develop into strong resilient specimens. Spacings will vary depending on plant variety, e.g. Forest species of Eucalypts can be planted approximately 5m apart for a continual tree canopy;

•

Select plant species for attributes such as longevity, hardiness to weather extremes and drought, fire resistance, pest and disease resistance, low maintenance, and suitability to urban and backyard environments (e.g. trees which don’t pose significant safety risk such as a branch dropper). By selecting reliable species, the ability to store carbon over a prolonged period is increased; Consider growing native plants propagated from seed and from local provenance as they are genetically diverse and more acclimatised to local conditions; Reliable watering is essential during the establishment phase and also over prolonged hot dry periods. Replenish organic matter and mulch as needed, avoiding plant stems. If necessary,

•

carry out any formative pruning on trees when they are young; Ideally, the aim is to replicate and encourage a diverse and wholly self-sustaining system, using a range of plant types and sizes.

Where to buy Australian native plants •

Research suggest most Australians struggle to get rid of their old electronics and mobile phones, but 73% haven’t used old mobiles they’ve held on to in the last two years.

Say goodbye to stuff An inability to say goodbye to certain things once found useful or valued is contributing to a build-up of stuff in Australian households. According to research commissioned by MobileMuster, the majority of Australians (88.1%) feel like their old and unused things are cluttering their space but 68.3%

struggle to get rid of them. The findings show that the struggle to let go of things no longer needed is causing more than half of Australians to feel annoyed at themselves (58%), despite the vast majority of people (89.2%) admitting that they would feel happier if they could get rid of their old things.

Trash to treasure When it comes time to say goodbye to your unwanted goods, throwing everything into landfill seems like a waste, so consider selling second-hand. After all, your trash is someone else’s treasure. Monique Annetts, founder of AMA Event Management, shares her top five tips for selling your unwanted goods at a trash and treasure market. Don’t overprice your items: It’s always tempting to overprice second-hand items, especially if they have some sentimental value. When pricing items, take into consideration the quality of the item, the brand, its age and how popular it currently is. Price lower and watch everything sell! Don’t overload your stall: If your stall is stacked with stuff, shoppers will bypass you. As a general rule: display your best items upfront; have a system

that makes it easy to browse; hide items not currently on display from customers so as to avoid clutter; hire a table or clothes rack if required. Offer what is popular: When picking the items to display, as a general rule, toys and books are the most popular, as long as they’re in good condition. Otherwise, choose clothing that is in the current season, or the one to come. Expect hagglers: Make sure to be flexible with your pricing. If the customer makes any reasonable offers, never decline. Remember, you’re there to clear your goods and a bit of cash is better than none at all. Set up early and smile: There is a large community of regular market-goers. Make sure you’re there early so they can scoop up your bargains. Say hello, be engaging and stay enthusiastic throughout the day. A happy stallholder is inviting to the customer.

Midnight welcomes first guests Midnight Hotel is now open for business, and has welcomed its first guests to the newly completed Braddon hotel. Home to 199 premium rooms, a restaurant, Braddon Merchant, and a bar, Midnight Bar, Midnight Hotel is part of Marriott International’s Autograph Collection and is Marriott International’s first hotel to open in the national capital. Marriott International and Iconic Hotels, the hotel development arm of developer Geocon, entered into an agreement for the operation of the hotel in August. “Celebrating the world’s most distinctive independent hotels around the globe, each hotel in the Autograph Collection is a product of vision, handpicked for its mark of craft, heartfelt design and authentic sense of place. These principles guide the curation of the portfolio, ensuring each hotel experience is remarkably unlike anything else,” said Area Vice President, Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific, Marriott International, Sean Hunt. Guests at the hotel have access to a heated indoor pool with cabana seating, sauna, and shared and

private gym areas, as well as conference and event spaces. “Midnight Hotel is unique in design, thoughtful in spirit and affords a prime inner-city location with exemplary guest service,” said Iconic Hotels’ General Manager, Rien Donkin. “We are proud to be recognised as part of Marriott International’s Autograph Collection and excited to share our city’s story with our global guests.”

Doma Hotels recognised Doma Group’s Little National Hotel has been awarded Best Midscale Hotel at the HM Awards for Hotel and Accommodation Excellence for the fourth time. “In just five years of operation, Little National has been honoured by HM in the Midscale Hotel category a staggering four times,” said Doma Director of Hotels, Patrick Lonergan. Doma Hotels Brassey Hotel was a joint winner of the Economy Hotel category, while Hotel Realm’s Buvette Bistro and food and beverage associate Robert Mawson were highly commended.

Doma plan to open hotels with the Little National blueprint in both Sydney and Newcastle.

Little National Hotel was named Best Midscale Hotel at the HM Awards for Hotel and Accommodation Excellence.

Commercial construction to soften Master Builders Australia (MBA) has released forecasts suggesting commercial building will soften over the next few years. MBA chief economist Shane Garrett said commercial building has grown steadily over recent years to reach its highest level on record, due to demand for commercial projects such as schools, hospitals, shops and restaurants. “We expect that the volume of commercial building across Australia totalled $45.75 billion during 2018/19, an increase of 8.0% on the previous year,” he said. “The favourable economic backdrop is forecast to propel commercial building forward by another 6.5% during 2019/20. However, market activity is then expected to revert to lower levels. By the end of our forecast horizon in 2023/24, the size of Australia’s commercial building market is projected to be 8.9% smaller than in 2018/19.” Mr Garrett said several segments of commercial building are set for healthy growth over the period to 2023/24, including retail/ wholesale, transport buildings and health facilities. “If the rollout of newly committed government infrastructure work were to be speeded up, this would enhance the viability of more projects in the commercial building space and get recovery underway more quickly.” Master Builders ACT CEO Michael Hopkins echoed this sentiment from a local perspective, and said the forecasts indicate commercial building in the ACT is entering a downturn over the coming years.

Spacious living areas provide all the room you need for entertaining family and friends, while the generous bedrooms offer plenty of storage with built-in robes. An ensuite off the master bedroom firmly cements these townhomes in the ‘luxury living’ category. Outside, Fresco residents can expect to enjoy fully landscaped and irrigated courtyards for outdoor living and entertaining, as well as double garages with internal access.

Blue Velvet

Thursday, SBS VLND, 12.10am, MA15+ (1986)

David Lynch’s masterpiece takes you to an inexplicable place where something sweet and innocent reveals itself to be depraved and terrifying. Kyle MacLachlan (pictured) is Jeffrey, an all-American college boy who returns to his pseudo-’50s home-town.

Mia will need to be highly self-sufficient during the year ahead with opportunities to be snapped up after careful consideration. 2020 will be an excellent time for laying the foundations for future success in all areas of her life. She will have the chance to start again in many areas; the emphasis will be on the new – fresh faces, more opportunities and new experiences. She must be prepared to step out of her comfort zone and push the boundaries of daily life.

If friends or loved ones turn out to be wet blankets, you’re likely to step outside your comfort zone to explore different avenues of fun. The 13 October full moon warns you to avoid acting like a tyrant at work or that won’t help you win friends and influence people!

People will take notice of you and

The full moon on 13 October warns that the lure of returning to some old form of work or past pattern of employment may be the completely wrong approach. You need to be patient and bide your time for now. At work, try to focus on the bigger picture.

friendship around the full moon of the 13th, if you are feeling unpredictable and impulsive. You need to be mindful of the attitudes and outlooks of others in your relationships and friendships. Ask those you trust to share their insights!

TAURUS 21 APR – 21 MAY Around the full moon on 13 October be very wary of overloading your schedule and making a rod for your own back. It may become necessary to re-evaluate plans. Try to get a broader and clearer picture before committing yourself to a schedule or project.

GEMINI 22 MAY – 21 JUNE Teamwork and pulling together as a family and realigning each and every member’s goals will bring an uplifting energy to the household. On the full moon of 13 October, be careful of how you deal with your friendships and colleagues if you don’t wish to get them offside.

LEO 23 JULY – 23 AUG The full moon on the 13th warns you not to become too disillusioned as someone you trust could hurt you and this is because you are looking at life through rose-coloured glasses. Take a deep breath as your business or personal life could overwhelm you with additional demands.

VIRGO 24 AUG – 23 SEPT On the 13 October full moon you need to be careful of unexpected expenses or hidden charges regarding your credit/ debit card statements, taxation or BAS payments, mortgage payments or insurance premiums. Perhaps there’s something that has been overlooked and now needs to be dealt with.

will feel inspired by what you have to offer. On the full moon of 13 October, be wary of expecting your loved ones and friends to follow one set of rules while you follow another. The good old double standard!

SCORPIO 24 OCT – 22 NOV The 13 October full moon encourages you to nurture your health. More rest, a better diet and exercise routine will do wonders for your overall wellbeing. An opportunity for friendship rests upon your ability to share some secrets. By offloading guilt, the other party will immediately identify with you.

SAGITTARIUS 23 NOV – 21 DEC Around 13 October your hotheadedness could get you into trouble. You’ll be competitive and also unreasonable. Try not to take this out on the people you love as you will only alienate them, and will need to work twice as hard to win them over.

AQUARIUS 21 JAN – 19 FEB If you’re working in a dead-end job simply to pays the bills, it’s time to rethink your career. The 13 October full moon suggests you need to be careful of electronic devices, the car or mobile phone malfunctioning at the worst possible time as Murphy’s Law is in operation!

PISCES 20 FEB – 20 MAR The full moon on 13 October warns you to be careful regarding your finances, otherwise you’re likely to blow a big hole in your budget. A meal at home is often cheaper than one at an expensive restaurant so think about how you can better manage your hard earned cash.

Based on Philipp Meyer’s New York Times best-selling novel of the same name, season two of The Son (MA 15+) concludes the journey of cattle magnate Eli McCullough (Pierce Brosnan).

Win one of 10 x double passes to a preview screening of Brittany Runs a Marathon (CTC) at Dendy Canberra on Wednesday 23 October. New Yorker Brittany Forgler (Jillian Bell) is everybody’s best friend – except maybe her own. At 27, her hard-partying ways are catching up with her. When she stops by a doctor’s office, she gets slapped with an unexpected prescription: Get healthy. Too broke for a gym, Brit is at a loss, until her neighbour Catherine pushes her to go for a run. Soon, she sets an almost unthinkable goal: running in the New York City Marathon. In cinemas 31 October.

My favourite things FAMILY Bonnie says her husband Stephen and her family “have been my backbone and support for everything, but especially the past three years. We are a very tightknit family”.

DANCE Photo Kerrie Brewer

While Bonnie danced and performed as a child, she returned to learning to dance last year at Kokoloco. Bonnie says “I have a newfound love for Latin dance” with samba and reggaeton favourites. “Dance has also been therapy through everything.”

CARS “That’s something that Steve and I share but individually we had that interest before we met.” Summernats attendees, Bonnie says her dream would be to own a Ford XY GT.

Bonnie Carter

Lifeline Canberra Rising Woman of Spirit

Bonnie Carter is the 2019 Lifeline Canberra Rising Woman of Spirit and an advocate for infant loss awareness. Bonnie says she was honoured to receive the award and has many “new ideas of what I want to do with stillbirth awareness and this will open more doors”. Bonnie became a mother for the first time in 2016 to Grace, stillborn at 19 weeks, and in 2017 birthed Matilda, stillborn at 23 weeks. She has also suffered two miscarriages. “The only way we are going to reduce stillbirth and the taboo nature of any pregnancy loss is to talk about it,” she says. “Everything I do is for our girls. I know that they would be proud and happy with what we are doing. Everything I do is to honour them.” October is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month. Bonnie has again gained ACT Government approval for Canberra’s structures to be lit up pink and blue for Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day on 15 October. - Allison Turnbull 170

TASMANIA Born in Launceston, Bonnie says she loves Tasmania’s “untouched beauty and wild landscapes and particularly Flinders Island where my family is from”.

BOOKS Bonnie says she grew up reading and, after seeing a Street Library in Melbourne, decided to make her own. “We decided to make it in memory of the girls. I always imagined that as I grew up with books, they would grow up with books.”

Unadulterated exhilaration. The Audi S Range, the perfect combination of sport and sophistication. Where performance truly does meet luxury.
