‘Don’t panic’ on planning Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au ALARM at planning uncertainty in Kingston has been dismissed by Kingston Council who insist residential areas are safe from overdevelopment while the state government considers council’s Plan Melbourne submission. Kingston is one of 24 councils awaiting a response from Planning

Minister Matthew Guy on its submission to have more than 75 per cent of the region included in the Neighbourhood Residential Zone (Planning ‘debacle’’, The News, 25/6/14). Single and two-storey homes to a maximum height of eight metres can be built in the NRZ. Since the new Plan Melbourne zones came into effect on 1 July, there had been fears the entire Kingston region would switch to a Gen-

eral Residential Zone while the state government considered Kingston Council’s submission. Properties in a GRZ can be built to a “discretionary height limit of nine metres”. Last week, council was unsure what a “neutral conversion” for the 24 affected councils – mentioned in a media release from Mr Guy - for the Kingston area meant in reality and had sought clarification.

The mayor, Cr Paul Peulich, said there was no risk of Kingston being “opened up to overdevelopment” before Mr Guy responded to council’s submission. “It has been confirmed a ‘neutral conversion’ means things remain as they are at the moment,” he said. During the interim period the previous Residential 1, 2 and 3 Zones no longer exist and will be effectively classed General Residential Zone,

Smokers face festival ban Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au WHERE there’s smoke, there’s ire. Festivals in Kingston could soon be near smoke-free zones after councillors agreed to look at banning smoking near non-smokers at all councilrun events. The Patterson Lakes Carrum Village Committee asked council to consider moving the smokers’ area at the Harvest Festival, held in May each year, to a location away from

non-smoking festivalgoers. Village committee chairman Trevor Shewan said families were regularly exposed to smoke at the Harvest Festival. “Adults and children have been exposed to passive smoking,” he said. Mr Shewan said village committee members volunteered to collect gold coin entry fees at the Harvest Festival at Roy Dore Reserve in Carrum and had noticed passive smoking seemed to be a problem. Village committee members spend all day at the festival collecting gold coin donations.

“There is a feeling…smoking is not far enough removed from the main tent where entertainment is on.” If council would not completely ban smoking at outdoor events, Mr Shewan said the village committee believed smoking areas should at least be located as far away as possible from non-smokers. Cr Rosemary West thought it was a “constructive recommendation”. “I think it’s worth considering moving smokers away from the nonsmoking public... if we are not going to ban smoking.”

Cr Tamsin Bearsley wanted to speak to the Harvest Festival committee and festivalgoers before making a decision. Kingston Council is conducting a review of its festivals and councillors agreed the suggestion to quarantine smokers away from other festivalgoers would be considered as part of the review of all festivals. Cr Bearsley noted council would consider making all council-run festivals in Kingston smoke-free from next year as part of the review.

DIAMOND CONCEPTS FOR AN APPOINTMENT CALL

KINGSTON Mayor, Cr Paul Peulich, has met with senior members of the federal government to discuss issues affected Melbourne’s south east suburbs. “As chair of the South East Melbourne Councils, I led a delegation of fellow mayors to meet with senior government members to discuss high speed broadband, transport priorities, the future of the manufacturing industry in the south east of Melbourne and the impact of the exit of Holden, Ford and Toyota.” “The South East Melbourne councils have now established a strong dialogue with the relevant federal ministers including deputy Prime Minister Warren Truss, Minister for Industry Ian Macfarlane, Minister for Communications Malcolm Turnbull and Minister for Small Business Bruce Billson.” “Certainly, Kingston Council as well as our City of Greater Dandenong neighbours are particularly concerned with economic development and the future of manufacturing.” Cr Peulich said manufacturing accounts for more than 50 per sent of the municipality’s total $25 billion economic output. “In the case of Kingston, our innovative manufacturing sector generates more than 50 per cent of the municipality’s total annual economic output of about $25 billion. “We’re home to household names including Coca-Cola, Corning Cables, Kookaburra Sporting Goods, Holden Special Vehicles and Goodman Fielder and our city is one of Victoria’s major employment centres accounting for 26 per cent of jobs. “We want to support our local businesses, big and small to be able to diversify, innovate and create more opportunities for local employment.

Exhibition to shed light on a soldier’s war life Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au

Saddle up: Kingston Historical Network curator Dorothy Booth is appealing to borrow WWI artefacts for a Mentone Museum exhibition. Picture: Gary Sissons

FROM little things big things grow – and that’s what history buffs at the Kingston Historical Network hope will happen to their fledgling World War I memorabilia display. The group is putting together an exhibition of items to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Great War, which began in August 1914. Residents are asked to fossick through their memorabilia and to loan the museum for display any items handed down by loved ones over the years. Of special interest would be tactile objects made by the troops in the trenches while waiting to go into battle, said curator Dorothy Booth, of Mentone. “They used to make items from bully beef tins, such as little toys for their children, or trinkets to send home. Or they made gaiters and caps.” She said “anything tactile or three dimensional” would be especially welcome, such as diaries, cigarette cases, compasses or clothing, but that they already had an extensive collection of photographs. So far, the museum has been “thrilled” to receive a saddle with a wooden frame, a pair of field glasses and a trench scope designed for watching the enemy without the soldier needing to lift his head up above

‘Clogged’ grants process may delay day of display A FLOOD of applications for First World War centenary celebration grants has clogged the system, jeopardised the opening date of the Mentone Museum’s memorabilia exhibition. Kingston Historical Network coordinator Graham Whitehead said $6000 from the Minister for Veterans’ Affairs to pay for catalogues had not yet been received, meaning the anticipated 6 August opening date of the display was in jeopardy. The date is important as it is the 100th anniversary of the beginning of the Great War. The printing of the 2500 catalogues – whose design has already been finalised and approved - is expected to take three weeks, so time is of the essence. They will

Draft Budget released Kingston Council has released its 2014-15 Draft Budget with a focus on improving services, maintaining $2.5 billion in community assets and delivering $44.9 million in capital works. Prudent financial management ensures the City of Kingston continues to deliver solid value for money to ratepayers. With a modest increase of 4.25% to total rates and charges, the 2014-15 Draft Budget responds to the community’s expectation that we continue to deliver services and facilities in a cost effective way.

Preserving and maintaining our assets While Council looks to manage its operating budget, Kingston keeps rate rises to a minimum by effectively maintaining our existing assets to ensure their value is preserved. Constraining the operating budget means Council can contribute to delivering services and facilities with only a moderate rate increase.

Listening to our community From listening to Kingston residents we know the community wants to see continued investment in support services including family and children’s services; and facilities such as libraries, parks, sportsgrounds and pools.

US giant: Costco poised to build a vast retail warehouse at Moorabbin Airport after council go ahead.

Costco splits councillors Peninsula Fireplace Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au

COSTCO could be coming to Kingston with council’s backing despite a split in opinion between councillors. There was debate at last month’s council meeting about how the US bulk buy supermarket goliath’s arrival in Kingston may hurt existing businesses’ profits. A council officers’ report on Costco’s proposal noted it was “inevitable that such a store will be located in south east Melbourne” because of the broad catchment area for customers but cautioned that the viability of nearby retail hubs such as Aspendale Gardens, Dingley, Thrift Park, Cheltenham and Mentone could be threatened in the longer term. South ward councillor Tamsin Bearsley said she understood the council officers’ concerns but supported Costco’s proposal to build a vast warehouse-style store at Moorabbin Airport. “I welcome the jobs and the activity and the visitors it will bring,” Cr Bearsley said. “The benefits and opportunities far outweigh the challenges.” Cr Bearsley said the challenges could be tackled by continually speaking to both Moorabbin Airport Corporation and Costco as the plans progress. She acknowledged concerns that Costco could impact on supermarkets in Kingston suburbs such as IGA and Safeway but said Costco had a different business model than other retailers. “You buy in bulk there and the average customer only goes to Costco eight times a year and has to buy a (membership) card,” Cr Bearsley said. However, the arrival of Costco was opposed by Cr Rosemary West who said only green wedge or aviation approved activities should be given the go ahead on Moorabbin Airport land. “This application is inconsistent with every officer report and the argument that this is justifiable for jobs would mean we would build all over the green wedge,” Cr West said.

“This is putting business first, last and everywhere in between…it is not good planning and I think this council should oppose it.” Cr Geoff Gledhill disagreed and said a Costco warehouse would lure shoppers from a wide area to Kingston. “We can’t afford to reject a proposal like this and we should embrace it as a win-win situation,” he said. “We can’t hide from competition and as a council we don’t do any business any service by artificially or temporarily shielding them from the realities of the market.” Cr Gledhill said council “can’t live in the past but have to look at the contemporary demands of the community.” Cr Ron Brownlees realised the Costco proposal was “at odds” with council’s planning guidelines which oppose out of centre retailing but wondered how long council should “protect” existing businesses. “How long can we protect… Coles, Woolworths and Aldi?” he asked. “I do have reservations about this…but I don’t think Costco will affect some of the local shopping centres,” Cr Brownlees said. “You’ve got to pay to go in to Costco and shop… and not a lot of people will do that.” Costco has warehouse retail outlets at Docklands and Ringwood. Councillors David Eden and West voted against the Costco plan while councillors Brownlees, Bearsley, Gledhill and the mayor, Cr Paul Peulich, supported the proposal. Crs Tamara Barth, Steve Staikos are John Ronke were absent. Last Thursday, councillors Steve Staikos, David Eden and Rosemary West failed in a move to rescind council’s decision at a special meeting called. Cr Barth expressed opposition to Costco’s plan. “Going in with something that says we support the development…is not the right way forward…and we should maintain our stance of refusal [of out of centre retailing].” Federal minister for infrastructure Warren Truss will now consider the proposal.

Dog’s life: Pet owners will be able to collect dog poo litter bags from life saving clubs. Pic: Gary Sissons

Much dog doo leads to nothing A TRIAL providing dog litter disposal bags at Carrum’s foreshore has been declared a dud six months after Kingston Council first installed dispensers in the area. Councillors have decided not to roll out a supply of dog poo dispensers across Kingston due to prohibitive costs. Cr Tamsin Bearsley said dog litter bags “cost a small fortune”. “We would be up for approximately $88,000 if we put dispensers just along the foreshore,” she said. Cr Geoff Gledhill said dog owners had to take responsibility for cleaning up after their pets. “Ratepayers should not have to incur extra costs,” Cr Gledhill said. The Patterson Lakes Carrum Village Village Committee had pushed for the litter bags trial (‘Trail set to put doggie doo in bag’, The News, 11/12/13). Community feedback suggested some dog owners walking through Carrum expected the bags to

be available since neighbouring Frankston Council provided them along its municipality foreshore and in its parks. Cr David Eden said there had been problems with some dog walkers not carrying litter bags with them. “We should remind people they should carry bags with them at all times and there are penalties for not doing so,” he said. In some areas dog litter bags had been scattered across the Carrum foreshore area, according to Cr Rosemary West. “It doesn’t always work in the way it is intended.” She praised the village committee’s work on the issue. Councillors agreed with a village committee suggestion that dog poo litter bags be distributed by council for pickup before picking up at life saving clubs and cafes along Kingston’s foreshore in an effort to clean up beaches. Neil Walker

Kingston ‘safe’ from homes zones harm Continued from page 1 Cr Geoff Gledhill contacted The News to express his disappointment at “very alarmist” interpretations of the Plan Melbourne planning process. “We [council] have been given every assurance by the state government that there is no need to panic,” Cr Gledhill said. The state government’s Residential Zones Standing Advisory Committee had not responded to Kingston Council’s submission before the 1 July deadline but Cr Gledhill defended the delay. “When you consider the scale of what they’re trying to do, they’ve done a good job,” he said. Cr Peulich said Kingston is not earmarked for

rapid development but said the area had to “do its bit” to accomodate the Melbourne region’s growing population. “We’re not a growth area, but if we can do anything to help we should,” he said. “There is pressure to grow the city.” Cr Peulich mentioned Westall as a suburb that could cope with more homes being built in the area. Mr Nevins believed Mr Guy had handled the process well despite delays in the process. “Kingston would like to thank the Planning Minister for ensuring appropriate transition provisions apply whilst he determines the final application of the new residential zones in Kingston,” he said.

The CSIRO laboratories at Aspendale are a hub for marine and atmospheric research. Scientists analyse ice core samples, air quality, pollution and undertake climate and atmospheric modelling research at the Aspendale laboratories. Last month, CSIRO spokesman Huw Morgan told The News “no decision has been made” on the Aspendale labs’ future (‘Abbott goes cold on science centre’, The News, 4/6/14). CSIRO research has led to the development of many practical inventions such as wireless internet, known as wi-fi, and soft contact lenses. Royalties payments for wi-fi alone have raked in more than $400 million for Australian government coffers.

MORE than one thousand CSIRO staff protested across the nation last week over federal funding cuts to the science research organisation’s annual budget. Scientists gathered last Thursday in Clayton to make public their dissatisfaction at the Abbott government’s May decision to slash CSIRO funding as part of its first federal budget. About $115 million has been axed from the CSIRO’s national budget as part of the federal government’s push to get the nation’s budget back into surplus. Protests were also held at Canberra, North Ryde, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide and Hobart. Kingston already bears the scars of funding cuts after it was revealed eight full-time employees would lose their jobs at the climate change and atmospheric research centre in Aspendale (‘Jobs axed as science cuts hit home’, The News, 21/6/14). CSIRO Staff Association president Dr Michael Borgas said staff feared further job losses as funding cuts bite. “It’s no exaggeration to say that CSIRO faces a jobs crisis, we could be looking at the largest reduction in staffing at CSIRO in the organisation’s history,” he said. “The CSIRO faces a cut of 700 staff in the coming financial year. This number of 700 is made up of 420 jobs lost to direct government cuts and 280 jobs gone as a result of the organisational restructure and cuts to important support functions.” The science research organisation’s staffing numbers are set to be slashed about 19 per cent over two years, according to Dr Borgas. The Aspendale facility’s ongoing viability was already in

Charges loom over shocking smash

Police hunt man over sex attack SEXUAL Crime Squad detectives have released an identikit image of a man they are hunting over the sexual assault of a teenager at Mordialloc earlier this year. A 19-year-old woman got off a Frankston-bound train at Mordialloc railway station just after midnight on Saturday 22 February. She was followed by an unknown man who struck up a conversation with her. The pair walked together north-east along Bear St to a reserve near the corner of Chute Street when the man sexually assaulted the victim. The offender then ran away and was last seen walking along Bear St. The victim ran back to the railway station where she raised the alarm. The man is perceived to be of Caucasian appearance, aged in his

A 22-year-old Dingley Village man is facing “serious criminal changes” after crashing his Holden Commodore sedan into a concrete power pole on Lower Dandenong Rd last Saturday. Police allege the man, who was accompanied by a passenger, was driving in a dangerous manner in the lead-up to the crash in Dingley Village about 11.15am on 28 June. The driver was injured in the crash and taken by ambulance to Dandenong Hospital for treatment. He is yet to be formally interviewed by police but is expected to be charged with a range of traffic and criminal offences stemming from the incident, including conduct endangering persons, which carries a maximum five year jail term. The force of the impact snapped the pole at ground level, leaving it suspended by high voltage power lines directly over the roadway. Surrounding homes and businesses were left without electricity and Lower Dandenong Road was blocked for the rest of the day.

Witnesses to the crash said passersby and nearby residents had put their lives on the line risking electric shock to drag the driver from the car. Springvale CFA senior station officer Josie Sensi said her crew worked with police to keep the area isolated from the public while power company officials assessed and repaired the damage. Power company emergency teams

worked throughout the day to replace the pole and rewire cables to restore power back in the area. Police have asked anyone who saw the crash or a white Holden Commodore sedan driving in the area in the lead up to the incident to contact Moorabbin highway patrol on 9556 6565 or Crime Stopper on 1800 333 000.

Chelsea Mordialloc Mentone News 2 July 2014

5 July – 9 August Southbank Theatre

Starring Alex Dimitriades

THE People Place Music Club’s ‘Big as Texas Concert’ is getting bigger each year. Organiser Jamez Harrison said preparations for the fourth annual concert to be held next month are well underway. Mr Harrison said five peninsula music clubs get together each year for a good old fashioned hoedown. “The concert features a mixture of porch music, folk, blues, country music and basically all kinds of music,” he said. The bill includes The Chris Newman Show, Veranda Music Club, Peninsula Folk Club, Fathers of the Chapel, Berwick Music Club and The People Place Music Club members. The People Place Music Club – much like Cuba’s legendary Buena Vista Social Club – is a welcoming place for musicians to meet and exchange ideas, play together and encourage the less experienced to get up on stage. “We have had everything from carpenters ‘playing’ hacksaws to 90-yearold strippers,” Mr Harrison said. It is to be hoped the two acts do not share a stage at the same time for health and safety reasons. The club was established 15 years ago and Mr Harrison, a livewire 60

year old, has been involved for the past four years after retirement. “I love it – it’s a great way to meet so many enthusiastic people who have talent in musical spades.” He also volunteers to visit nursing homes and psychiatric institutions to “try to cheer people up” by playing banjo, piano, keyboards and several other instruments. He’s a veritable one-man band and force of cheerful nature. “I also go busking in Frankston. I haven’t got much money but I’ve been very blessed in life,” Mr Harrison said. “Much as I love Judge Judy, I couldn’t face sitting at home every day watching daytime TV after I retired.” nTickets for The People Place Music Club’s ‘Big As Texas’ concert to be held on Sunday 20 July, 1pm-4.30pm at Mahogany Neighbourhood Centre, 26 Mahogany Ave, Frankston North are available for $8 each (concessions $6). Call 9786 1445. All proceeds go to the peninsula music clubs to help with running costs. See a preview of the Big As Texas concert on Frankston TV’s YouTube channel at www.youtube.com Neil Walker

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Skeletons of man and child found in Merricks Compiled by Cameron McCullough MR and Mrs A. Aitken left Melbourne on Wednesday by the Loongana for Launceston en route for Hobart, where their future home will be. *** MESSRS Brody and Mason will hold their monthly sale of stock, Wednesday next. A large yarding of cattle and sheep is advertised for. *** MESSRS A. Scott and Co.’s monthly sale at Tanti on Monday next, which will commence at half past 12 o’clock. *** ABOUT seven nominations were received by the Fiinders campaign committee from persons willing to oppose Sir William Irvine. Regret was ex pressed that Mr J. K. McDougall had not nominated. *** A SLIGHT error occurred in the Frankston Brass Band balance sheet, published in our last week’s issue. The total in the expenditure reads £151 1s 11½d. It should read £153 1s 4½d. *** IN our report of the euchre party in connection with the Mornington Progress Association, in our last issue, an error occurred in ascribing the ladies’ first prize (a valuable hand bag) as the gift of Mr A. E. Bates. It should have read as being donated by the president of the association, Mr F. M. Linley. *** DEPOSITORS in the State Savings Bank are reminded by advertisement that the auditor (Mr L. G. Smith) will be in attendance at the Frankston Bank on Wednesday, 8th July, and at

the Mornington Branch on Thursday 9th July, for the annual inspection of passbooks. It is incumbent upon every depositor to produce his passbook at this time. *** MR “Son” Wilson, the popular player of the Mornington football team, met with a very severe accident on Wednesday afternoon last, caused by the axe he was using slipping and inflicting a nasty cut several inches long across his leg. His brother-in-law, Mr W. Wilson, had the misfortune to crush his hand in a bullock wagon two days previously. *** THERE was a good attendance at the picture show, held in the Mornington Mechanics’ Institute, on Friday night last, in aid of the funds of the Mornington football club. On Wednesday night the “Last Days of Pompeii” was screened, and the Mornington Progress Association will annex the profits. *** THE annual demonstration and concert in connection with the Ragged Boys’ Home and Seaside Home at Frankston will be held in the Auditorium, Collins Street, Melbourne, on Monday evening next when a firstclass programme will be presented, consisting of special bioscope pictures, singing by leading artists, and a display by children of the Mission. The musical portion is under the director ship of Miss Mabel Mattingley. *** THE pair of horses attached to Mr Jacob’s cab, while standing at the Frankston railway station on Monday

last decided to take a trip on their own, and although the wheels were tied, by the time they arrived in Bay street had got up fair speed, but a stop was put to their gallop by Mr R. Dixon, of the Savings Bank, who pluckily ran, clambered up behind and getting on the box, secured the reins and speedily brought the steeds under subjection. He drove them back to the station, unharmed, much to the delight of the owner. ***

THE skeletons of a man and a child were found on Monday above the high water mark between Merricks and Cole’s Beach. The bones were almost entirely buried in the sand and had lain there for many years.

THE annual meeting of the Tyabb Hall will be held on Wednesday next, when the business will be: To receive and adopt annual report and balance sheet, election of secretary, treasurer, caretaker and committee. *** THE skeletons of a man and a child

were found on Monday above the high water mark between Merricks and Cole’s Beach. The bones were almost entirely buried in the sand. Constable O’Shannassy, of Hastings, unearthed the remains, which had lain there for many years. Alongside the adult skeleton were the remains of a pocket knife, only the bone handle being intact. The discovery was made exactly opposite where at one time there had been an old wreck. The remains were brought to Hastings. *** A MEETING for the purpose of forming a gun club will be held at the Hotel Somerville on Tuesday evening next. All interested are invited to attend. *** THE secretary of the Frankston Fire Brigade wishes to acknowledge with thanks the sum of £7 ls, being proceeds of Mr Frederick harp’s concert, given in acknowledgment of work done by the brigade at the late bush fires. *** ON Tuesday last Ganger Nicholls discovered several rifle cartridges and dog spikes on the railway line between Frankston and Langwarrin. He informed the police, and Constable McCormick, after a deal of trouble, discovered that the articles had been placed on the line by two boys. The lads were severely cautioned, and it is not likely they will again go in for the same kind of “joke.” *** RESIDENTS in the vicinity of the Frankston Park complain bitterly of the disreputable conduct of some men who use the pavilion as a resting place. They frequently go there drunk,

and indulge in most foul language, not infrequently. One night last week one of the residents had all the pickets torn off his front fence, and was kept awake most of the night by these unseemly brawlers. *** DURING this week the Government Statist, Mr A. M. Laughton, will post about 37,000 cards to the farmers in the wheat and oat growing districts, with the request that they will furnish the area sown with wheat and oats for the present season, and state the quantity of wheat on the farm on the 30th. As it is a matter of great interest to the public, and to farmers especially, to know the total area under these two important crops, each farmer is requested to fill in his card and return it immediately after the 30th June, so that the information can be compiled and published at the earliest possible date. It is particularly requested that the cards sent to farmers be returned, whether they have sown or not. Schedules are also being sent to the Railway Department, and, by post, to flour mills and wheat stores, with the view of ascertaining the quantities of stocks of wheat and flour on hand at the end of last month,. Holders of wheat in bulk who do not receive a Schedule are requested to communicate with the Government Statist. The Government Statist hopes that all concerned will do their utmost to assist him to make reliable estimates of the area sown and the stocks of wheat and flour on hand, by answering his questions fully and returning the cards and forms promptly.

Why Cinderella wears gumboots and other bull By Stuart McCullough I’VE often wondered what went wrong. Cinderella was tying one on, having the time of her life at the Ball before the wheels and, more importantly, slipper came off. Until then, the night had been nothing short of a triumph. She’d blitzed Karaoke with a masterful rendition of Two Princes by The Spin Doctors before crumping herself into oblivion to the sounds of Skrillex. Her dance floor moves caught the eye of a handsome Prince and they were just about to exchange digits when, due to a strictly enforced magical curfew, she had to scarper before her Ford Festiva turned into a pumpkin, taking her e-tag with it. In all that haste, poor Cindy left her shoe behind. How does anyone manage to lose a shoe? This is either an act of high incompetence or, possibly, not everything in fairy tales should be taken at face value. Given that most fairy tales are fairly old, it’s reasonable to assume that as the story has been told and retold, some exaggeration has crept in. Time, I think, lends itself to embellishment. It can make the mundane heroic or the simple spectacular. It’s precisely this principle that has seen my ‘Best on Field’ award of a free hamburger from Brammell’s milk bar for the under 9s match between Tyabb and Tootgarook Junior Football Clubs elevated, over many years, to runner up for the Brownlow medal. I doubt Cinderella was wearing a pair of slippers that fateful evening. To lose footwear under those conditions, there’s only one plausible explanation: Cinderella was wearing gumboots.

‘If the shoe fits’ is all well and good when you’re talking about a pair of Bata Scouts but hopeless when it comes to gumboots. As kids, we all had a pair. Mud was all around us and you wouldn’t think of walking anywhere outside without your gumboots. In the winter, they stopped water from seeping through to your socks. In summer, they were (at least in theory)

protection against snakes. At the back door of our house was a rack with seven pairs of gumboots. For years, the boots were in descending order of size from my father down to my youngest brother until we outgrew him. My father has what can only be described as ‘goblin feet’. When I left home, my gumboots stayed behind. They were unlikely to

be any use to me at University, or so I thought. Over a number of decades, I watched as they withered. Anecdotes and fairy tales may get bigger over the years, but the opposite is true of unloved footwear. Eventually, they were not so much gumboots as affordable housing for spiders. There comes a point when you should just accept that your gumboots are no longer yours and best off left as an arachnid timeshare resort. We decided to have a working bee at my father’s house. There was wood to be chopped and chores to be done. But before anything else, I needed new gumboots. Attending what looked like an aircraft hanger but was, so my brother assured me, a hardware store, I found rows of them. Some had steelcaps in the toes. Others had satellite navigation. It was clear that the art of gumboot making had come a long way. But not only did I purchase a pair of boots containing more metal than my first car, I also got myself a pair of work gloves and a face shield that made me look like an Storm Trooper understudy on the set of Star Wars. Between my father’s house and the bush is a paddock. In that paddock are a bunch of harmless cows who, when they’re not wasting time playing Angry Birds, spend the hours eating grass. There is, however, one bull. In his infinite wisdom, my father decided to separate the bull from the cows for the week leading up to the working bee. Which means that old Boris the Bull was in a somewhat heightened state. These, it must be said, were not ideal conditions. It’s been years since I’ve chopped

up firewood. This might explain how I managed to miss the particular log I was aiming for and break the axe in half. For this reason my brother decided that – steel-cap gumboots or not – it would be better for everyone if I didn’t use the chainsaw. With wood duly chopped, I loaded up the wheelbarrow and set out on my perilous journey from the trees back to the house. Sensing weakness, Boris the Bull stood and watched as I huffed and puffed my way over the creek and towards the top gate. He then started doing some huffing and puffing of his own. I should say that whilst I’ve seen Crocodile Dundee at least twice, I am not drawn to the idea of trying to subdue a giant bovine by using the ‘Hang loose’ hand signal. It might have worked for Paul Hogan, but I preferred a different approach – I bolted. Boris immediately took off in pursuit. I ran like a man who, quite literally, had lead in his shoes and could almost feel the steam from the beast’s nostrils as I raced up the hill. With one last superhuman effort, I leapt over the fence and my right foot slipped free of my boot. As I tumbled onto the front yard I was safe, but one gumboot short of a working bee. I immediately retired. Last I heard, Boris was travelling around the peninsula asking people to try on the gumboot. It’s only a matter of time before the inevitable happens. When the moment arrives, I will only say that wish Boris and Cinderella all the happiness in the world. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Meanwhile Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe has revealed that he turned to alcohol to deal with his huge success. He told UK Sky Arts he struggled with fame and sometimes turned up to filming still drunk. Radcliffe has been a teetotal since 2010. *** Guns’n’ Roses are working on a new album, six years after the release of their oft-delayed album, Chinese Democracy. Axl Rose (born William Bailey) formed the band in 1985 and they become cult favourites matching their vision of punk nihilism with traditional heavy metal.

meant, attributable to anyone who gave the appearance of being “up themselves”. Now I see AFL footballers out on the ground, cuddling. They call it a huddle but it looks like cuddling to me. Before the game and at the start of the third quarter. Even three quarter time? Perhaps, and it’s simply a suggestion (in line with the many AFL special days), we might consider extending those days to a “coming out” day? Joke Joyce. *** JOE Hockey’s budget remains a fascination, particularly the end of entitlement nonsense. Is Joe of Dutch descent, as in double dutch? The super tax concessions for high income earners are entitled; likewise concessional tax on capital gains, negative gearing, and company cars - all unchanged, entitled. The young mums, the unemployed, nurses, teachers, pensioners and the like join this unentitled fantasy queue, or is it a nightmare? Austerity, building to a crescendo, but without the music. Sonny Joe, you’ve stepped over the mark. *** I LIKED the line in Old School (ABC TV 8.30 Friday 13/6) from Sam Neil’s justifiable complaining wife “We’re meant to be enjoying this time of our lives”. Joe, the $10 million dollar man (plus self managed super and family trust) would agree with the lady. I wonder if Joe was watching? Nah, it was a Friday. Fish for tea, with Kilikanoon

‘testament’ shiraz or veuve clicquot. *** MATCH fixing in cricket? Where there’s betting with money there are crooks, but not in Australia? Probably India, or Sri Lanka; likely in Pakistan with all those beards? It’s un-Australian! Our players don’t take drugs; illegal drugs anyway. Fine fellows, including Essendon footballers. Good old Sportsbet, using a “Jesus baloon” floating above Melbourne. No shame there. Rampant capitalism and corporate greed live on, forever. Tony tells us demonstrators are unAustralian. How would he know? Such a silly stupid word. C’est la vie. *** ANTI-SMOKING activists consistently criticise the tobacco industry for misleading data, lately on plain packaging results; a fine example of the pot and the kettle. Both are consistently loose with the truth. It’s all about the price of a pack of cigarettes, darlings! After the first month nobody noticed the pictures. Chop chop. *** CAROLINE Wilson returned to her vindictive best in her longstanding quest to bring down Collingwood champ Dane Swan. As always doubtful assumptions and a quote from “a source” providing much pleasure for non Collingwood supporters. No-one cuddles Swanny! *** FROM lovely Bettina Arndt in The Age

on great sex: “Being focused and absorbed in the moment; being in synch, as in two becoming one; mutual respect & trust; being tuned to each other’s feelings, moods & responses; being genuine, uninhibited; exploration, interpersonal risk taking, fun. Great sex involves laughter; vulnerability and surrender”. Thanks Bettina. I’ve made enough mistakes in life without you adding to them. “I’d rather regret the things I’ve done than regret the things I haven’t done” [Lucille Ball]. *** NATASHA Layton of Occupational Therapy Australia talks of “substantial research” in regard to elderly drivers, concluding evidence of lane positioning, approach to intersections, hazards and blind spots as common errors. Goodness only knows what “substantial” means. I thank Natasha for her efforts on our behalf but suggest she might take to the roads between 3 and 4pm weekdays for additional research on school parents and tradies to assess the wider picture. My theory is that drivers drive in a fairly close alignment with their personality. Some people say the same applies to dog owners. I had a sweet, generous, loving, shih-tzu. *** THE mid life crisis for males (existential panic/anxiety/depression/brain damage?) begins mid-to-late 30s, according to something I read, or if you like-a

*** CELEBRATING 50 years of performing, Suzi Quatro returns in January 2015 for her last Australian tour. With 30 Australian tours under her belt, this will be the final chance for Australian fans to see their rocker Suzi on stage. Australian promoter Harley Medcalf, said: “This will be our 15th Suzi Quatro tour. Duet Productions did the first ever Australian tour in the 70s, so it’s a great honour to be presenting the Final One for the Wild One. Born in Detroit Michigan, Suzi was raised in a musical family who all played various instruments. Suzi made her stage debut, playing bongos in her father’s Jazz band, The Quatro Trio. From

an early age, she studied classical piano and percussion and at the age of 14 began an all-girl band with her sister Patti calling themselves The Pleasure Seekers. Suzi was ‘told’ she would be playing bass guitar which was as tall as she was and also became the lead singer. In 1969 they changed their name to Cradle and it was this band that caught the attention of famed record producer Mickie Most who offered her a solo contract Between 1973 and 1980 Suzi Quatro featured in the British charts for 101 weeks and to date sold over 55 million records including hits, 48 Crash, Too Big, Devil Gate Drive, Daytona Demon, The Wild One, She’s In Love With You, Rock Hard and her duet with Chris Norman, Stumblin’ In. In 1977 Suzi then spread her wings and headed for the small screen playing Fonzie’s girlfriend, Leather Tuscadero in Happy Days. She continued to act in other television series including Minder, Dempsey and Makepeace, Absolutley Fabulous and Midsomer Murders. In 1986 Suzi made her West End debut playing the lead of Annie Oakley in Irving Berlin’s Annie Get Your Gun receiving critical acclaim. Suzi was one of the first rock and roll acts to tour to Russia where she performed to 500,000 people in six weeks in 1989. The leather clad bass playing rocker from Detroit who paradoxically found success in the UK singing the bubblegum rock of songwriters/producers Nicky Chinn and Mike Chapman will appear at the Frankston Arts Centre, 10 February tickets 9784 1060 and the Arts Centre Melbourne, Thursday 3 February, tickets 136 100. www.duetgroup.com www.suziquatro.com

A Grain of Salt AS an actor in years past I’m appalled at the $28.2 million cut to Australia Council funding; moreso when considering the $245 million allocated for school chaplains to provide spiritual guidance. True, Christopher (Pyne) says no proselytising, but there will be. They won’t do any more damage than a mosque in Bendigo apart from bringing all the ratbags (Aussie self-styled Christian ratbags) out in force. The problem is the emerging pattern: Science, CSIRO, Climate Commission, the ABC and those Coalition (‘Bad mouth the Labor Party’) Commissions. We all form part of Tony Abbott’s revenge; a beating, a kicking, hopefully never to recover. Our mate Billy (Shorten) appears to favour this spending on the chaplains. Also no objection to detention facilities and bodyguarded Julie Bishop’s call to reclassify East Jerusalem as ‘disputed’ rather than ‘occupied’. So much for taking sides. “Revenge is sweet” said the Lord, or as Shakespeare said: “Heat not a furnace for your foe so hot, that it do singe yourself” Hopefully, or lost in space. *** I WORRY about AFL footballers. Each club now has a leading players group calling the shots, like prefects. In my schooldays prefects were always a bit suspect; the disdain on their faces clearly visible when I walked by. I would privately think of them as “poofters” without having a clue what the word

By Cliff Ellen “source”. All my kids are over 40 so it follows all of them have been through this mysterious mid life crisis. The question is, therefore, at what stage in their lives does the “learning to listen” arrive? *** RACV advice to combat petrol price cycles is well timed “Hold off from buying until the prices drop.” Or “shop around for the best price.” Why didn’t I think of that? ...I wonder if Caroline Wilson and Cathy Jackson are good friends?...Retiring Liberal Senator Sue Boyce suggests Tony Abbott is sexist. True of course, as is Sue, myself and everyone else...Julie Bishop says Australia is committed to human rights?...A full seven pages in The Age of Queens Birthday honours and no mention of my name, again. Time is running out.

Kangas fall to a new low PENINSULA LEAGUE

By Toe Punt LANGWARRIN reached a new low on Saturday, humiliated in front of their home crowd by archenemy Pines. The Kangaroos played without spirit and passion, a far cry from the side that won their opening five games of the season. Langwarrin have now lost six games on the trot and are no certainty to beat Karingal this weekend. The Kangas are playing like they are scared to be offensive. They are reactive. Pines on the other hand are playing inspired football, now winning their past three games. On Saturday, they were six goals up by quarter time. The margin was 42 points at the last change and while Langwarrin predictably came back in the final quarter, they still went down 12.10 (82) to 9.16 (70). Chris Guganovic was clearly the best player on the ground. At no stage was he tagged or even respected by

the opposition. Guy Hendry completely dominated and intimidated. He finished with a career-high seven goals playing across half-forward. Jake Berry was again dominant and Jamie Messina ran around doing as he liked. Beau Muston with five goals and Nick Tuddenham, who was back from Frankston VFL, were clearly Langwarrin’s best. It was a struggle to find any other good players outside of these two. A number of weeks ago, Pines’ coach Steve Ryan resigned from the position, paving way for a new coach to come in next season. If the Pythons can maintain this level of intensity and spirit, they will become a very appealing proposition next season for any prospective coach. The Kangas on the other hand need to get back to enjoying their footy. They look like a group that isn’t enjoying things and it’s becoming a chore. They are frightened of failing. Frankston YCW once again stamped its authority on the competi-

tion, leading all afternoon to thump Mt Eliza to the tune of 44 points. The Stonecats held the Redlegs scoreless in the opening term and restricted them to just one behind in the final term. The home side doubled the score of the Redlegs, winning 12.16 (88) to 7.2 (44). YCW is playing with renewed spirit and enthusiasm under new coach Scott Mathers and the results are evidence of that. On Saturday, the Stonecats had nine different goal kickers, while Josh Pickess returned from the VFL and dominated. Tony Lester also was at his best yet again and Kyle Hutchison found plenty of the footy and finished with two goals. Sam Wettenhall was Mt Eliza’s only productive forward with four majors while Rob D’Orazio and Jordan Moncrieff tried hard. In the grand final replay, it was Edithvale-Aspendale that got the chocolates again over Bonbeach, winning a thriller 13.20 (98) to 11.19 (85). The Eagles opened up a 32-point lead kicking with the wind in the

opening term and while Bonbeach kept coming, they never got in front. Inaccuracy in the opening half prevented the Eagles from winning comfortably. They had 14 scoring shots to just two in the first quarter but only netted four majors. Jarrod Garth continues to be a revelation in this competition, booting ten goals in the past two weeks (five on Saturday) after sitting out three weeks due to a hamstring tear. Tim Mavric also returned and quickly found his best and Jordy Derbyshire continues his ‘fly under the radar’ season. Cal McQueen booted three for the Sharks while Gary Carpenter continues his purple patch of form with another three club votes. Jackson Casey and Dylan Jones were also at the top of their game. Many believed that on the closed spaces of Edithvale, Bonbeach would win. It seems they still have some work to do to get a win over the Eagles. Mornington had 12 goal kickers in its 20.23 (143) to 9.5 (59) win against Karingal.

James Cameron returned from Frankston Dolphins with four goals and a dominant display while Emilio Bitters and coach Stuart Seagar with three goals also took charge. Michael Burke was at his vintage best for the Bulls while Hadley Tomamichel kicked three goals in a strong display. Seaford turned the tables on Chelsea on Saturday, coming from behind to record a really strong 12.20 (92) to 9.9 (63) victory. The Tigers were mauled in the opening quarter and found themselves 29 points down at the first change. The home side still trailed by 15 points at the long interval and by the same margin at the last change. However, with the wind at their backs, Seaford kicked 6.9 to one behind in the final term. Johnathon Haidon and Matt Herbert aren’t well known Seaford names but these two dominated on Saturday, while Rory Luxton and Dean Kemble were also dominant. Daniel Aarsman (four goals) and Brad Clarke tried their best for the Gulls.

A devil of a time: The weather was gloomy, and so was the mood for Pearcedale, going down to Rye by five goals. Picture: Doug Farr

Blues coach out for season NEPEAN LEAGUE

season, Pies coach Duane Annable was keen to get a replacement quickly. Murray hasn’t played a game of footy since undergoing a knee reconstruction a couple of seasons ago. Murray joins former teammate Glenn Boyd at the Pies. Boyd booted four goals and was instrumental in the win on Saturday. When the game needed to be won in the last quarter, with his side trailing by eight points at the last change, Boyd booted three of his team’s five last quarter goals. The Pies led by one point at quarter time and by eight points at half time. Dean Warry and Brad Arnold were outstanding for the winners and James Cook was a tower in the ruck. Ryan Spooner was close to the best man on the ground with four goals for the Buds while Tommy Baker and Daniel Hickey were also outstanding. The Magpies remain in third place on the ladder, a game clear of Sorrento in fourth and two games clear of Rye in fifth. Rosebud on the other hand is now three games off third spot, currently sitting in seventh position on the table. Frankston Bombers trailed all afternoon against Somerville on Saturday. However the booted 5.6 to 3.1 in the final term to win 10.15 (75) to 10.13 (73). Matt Harris was outstanding in the win for the Bombers with four goals, while James Degenhardt and Mitch Bosward dominated through the middle of the ground. Duncan Proud was also very good for the winners. Travis Bravo finished with four goals for the Eagles while Brad Rowe, Luke Collie and Kane McKenzie picked up the votes. Rye moved back inside the top five with a five goal win against Pearcedale. Rhett Sutton and Ryan Semmel dominated through the middle and around the ground for the Demons while Adam Kirkwood returned to some of his best. Chris Gleeson finished with four majors while Andrew Dean played predominantly forward of centre and finished with two goals. Troy Jacobson and Mitch White were the best of the Panthers and Pat Heijden booted three majors. Red Hill maintained its position in the top three with a comfortable 56 point win against Devon Meadows. Devon booted three goals in the second quarter and only booted a

By Toe Punt HASTINGS’ bad run with injuries continued on Saturday in its one point loss to Dromana. In a game that had everything, the Tigers’ Anthony Bruhn was the only player to kick a goal in the final term, which was enough to get over the line 8.11 (59) to 7.16 (58). Blues’ coach Brendan Dunne broke his arm in the first quarter and won’t play again this season. Dunne’s injury adds to those of Daniel Wishart and Alex Goodingham, who are both out for the season, while Dylan Hand and Peter Mawson will miss the next four or five weeks with shoulder injuries. Jason Kestle is still weeks away with bone spurs in his ankle. It was a fitting match for these two clubs, who came together to play in heritage jumpers to raise awareness and money for bowel cancer. Both clubs auctioned their jumpers at the end of the game. Obviously, as was the case with all games on Saturday, the wind played havoc and favoured one end of the ground. Hastings kicked with the wind in the opening term at Pier St Oval but couldn’t take advantage of it. Losing Dunne also threw the Blues’ structures into a bit of chaos. The Tigers booted 4.2 to Hastings’ five behinds in the second quarter. This was probably the difference between the sides. Dromana took advantage of its opportunities while the Blues wasted some of theirs. Hastings finished with 23 scoring shots to 19. They booted 5.10 to 5.6 in the second and third quarters. Jay Neratzoglou was superb down back for the Tigers and led from the front while Jay Hutchinson and Daniel Guerts were also on top of their games. Steven Gaertner and Ash Waterstone kicked two goals each for the winners. Colin McVeigh and Justin Berry were outstanding for the Blues again, while Will Jolley was also excellent. Crib Point celebrated its hard fought 11-point win against Rosebud on Saturday with a major announcement. Former Somerville skipper Aaron Murray has signed with the Magpies. The Magpies were keen to replace key forward Torin Petrie, who decided a couple of weeks ago to head back home to St Arnaud and finish the season there. After such a wonderful start to the

further two points for the rest of the match. They were smashed 11.11 (77) to 3.3 (21). The defensive style of play from the Panthers continued, running two players behind the footy from the first bounce. It’s unattractive and isn’t going to win games of footy. Red Hill on the other hand attacked from the first bounce. Daniel Allsop, a 16-year-old in his

first year in the Hillmen’s Under 18s, made his debut, booted a goal and didn’t look out of place in the seniors. Michael Mock was outstanding for the winners, as was Nick Bateman, while Jarryd Douglas finished with three majors. Steve McInnes and Clint Walker were the best of Devon, while Alex Doria played his best game for the season.
