Indonesian Arts Festival to inspire Byron Bay Dragons, dinosaurs, jellyďŹ sh and giant eggs are some of the surprising and fascinating creatures that you might ďŹ nd at the Inspirasi Indonesian Arts Festival Finale at the Byron Peace Pole Park on Sunday 17 July. Preparations for the grand finale performance of the Inspirasi Festival are in full swing down at Byron Arts Factory. Indonesia’s foremost multimedia and international art celebrity Heri Dono is presenting a magical, mysterious performance of giant puppets, projections and installations which will tell a post-tsunami seaside tale from Indonesian mythology to delight children and adults of all ages. The performance will be a moving landscape of sounds and images narrated by the amazing voice of Melbourne vocalist Noemi Liba singing

the story joined by local musicians and gamelan orchestra. Festival highlights include the presentation of the Balinese Kecak Dance at the Buddha Bar this Saturday at 8pm to accompany the festival dinner. The Gold Coast Balinese community and local Indonesian and Australian communities have worked closely together over the past two months to create the ďŹ rst Kecak performance ever to be staged in Byron Shire. This group will also lead a beautiful Balinese procession with the stunning Barong and Rangda dancers in glittering costumes, gong music, Balinese umbrellas, ags and prayers starting from the Peace Pole at 11.30am on Sunday 17. A dedicated team of local and visiting artists have been

working non-stop to collaborate with Heri Dono in the creation of an array of beautiful art pieces for the performance art spectacular. Those who missed the Lismore Lantern Festival will get a chance to see some of its most spectacular pieces thanks to the festival’s Kathy McCormick who will be bringing the giant dragon and serpent to Byron Bay. Local sculptor John Lewis is creating jellyďŹ sh art pieces from recycled materials while internationally recognised installation artist Ginny Jones has invited Indonesian artist Firman Djamil from Sulawesi to collaborate on the production of giant seed pods to install at the festival site. Another highlight of the festival will be the public forum called ‘Neighbours: Who Needs Them’ to be

held at the Buddha Bar on Saturday at 2pm. ‘In light of recent events in Bali, the Schapelle Corby hysteria, the Bali bombing and other major issues that have rocked our neighbourhood, the Australia Indonesia Arts Alliance has chosen to speak out against the media manipulation of public opinion that has occurred in recent days,’ said a spokesperson for the Alliance. ‘The Inspirasi Festival itself celebrates 50,000 years of peace as the true reality of the Australia Indonesia relationship. Come along and have your say and hear what others feel about this most important relationship.’ Free performances of music, dance and arts of all kinds will run from noon until late this Saturday at the Buddha Bar and on Sunday at the Byron Peace Pole from 12-5pm. For more information contact the Indonesia Art Alliance on 6685 7789 or go to www.aiaa.org.au for the festival program.

Development plans in train for rail land

State Rail, which owns some prime pieces of real estate in Byron Bay and Mullumbimby, is hoping to increase their value by lobbying Council for favourable rezoning decisions. Under the current zoning, the land cannot be used for commercial or residential uses, however Railcorp has petitioned Council to consider changing the zoning. A zoning to allow commercial uses is being sought for a 6,000 square metre (1.5 acres) lot near the Byron Bay Railway Station and residential development has

been mentioned for land near the Byron Bay Market. Council have told Railcorp that any decision to rezone railway land is ‘premature’ according to General Manager Pamela Westing. While she says the change of use will not affect the running of the railway, a change of use for some of the parcels could impact on the development of the Byron Bay bypass. Of greater concern is the pressure the development could put on the centre of town. Ms Westing said that Council wants to complete their retail strategy and traf-

ďŹ c studies before any decision is made. However a proposal to rezone land in Mullumbimby adjacent to the rail line to make way for a new supermarket has already been thrown open for community comment. Pamela Westing, said ten submissions were received opposing the rezoning in Station Street, over 60 supported the move and a 900 signatures petition was submitted in favour of the plan. Council will be considering the proposal at their first meeting in August.

Local News State government rejects Survey Street development Alex McAuley Lennox Head residents have applauded the state government’s rejection of a development proposal for Lennox Headland. The development, named Coastal Grove Estate, was rejected last week because it failed to meet a number of guidelines aimed at protecting the environment. This is the third time that this development has been submitted and subsequently rejected by a number of planning bodies: Ballina Shire Council initially, then the Land and Environment Court and ďŹ nally the state government. The proposal, initially referred to as the Survey Street development, was ďŹ rst submitted to Council by William Dosser in late 1998/ early 1999 and included 45 residential lots in Survey St. Council rejected the application on a number of grounds including problems with drainage, proximity to one of the rarest trees in the world and the impact on the survival of this species and

the steepness of the site on which the development was to be built. Mr Dosser then took the application to the Land and Environment Court which upheld Council’s decision and made several recommendations regarding further applications for the site. Soon after the court’s decision, the state government assumed responsibility for planning approval for all major developments on coastal land. Mr Dosser subsequently submitted his most recent application for the newly named Coastal Grove Estate to the state government under the SEPP71 policy. Given that the new application appears to be very similar to the original one, it is perhaps not surprising that state government has rejected the proposal. NSW Minister for Infrastructure, Planning and Natural Resources Craig Knowles said, ‘I have rejected this draft master plan because it is inconsistent with the pro-

selection widest yarn h Coast rt o N e on th

visions of SEPP71 and the Ballina Local Environmental Plan, and because of the inadequacy of supporting information, the poor quality of the plan and supporting documentation, and the lack of detail about proposed uses of the residual parts of the site not proposed for residential uses. ‘There was also a disregard for the issues raised by, and the findings of, the Land and Environment Court in respect of a previ-

ous development proposal.’ Spokesperson for a Lennox residents’ group Mandy Andrews says the rejection validates the community’s feelings. ‘We feel really reassured that actually the community, Ballina Council and the state government are all on the same wavelength and agree that there was just a total lack of information,’ said Ms Andrews. ‘We’re very relieved that, yes, it has been rejected.’

Child support comes to Tweed Separated parents can ďŹ nd out about services available to them through The Child Support Agency (CSA) during a free Community Information Session at The Tweed Heads Civic and Cultural Centre next Friday. ‘CSA has more than 17,000 separated parents registered in the Tweed Heads and surrounding areas. The interview service is a great opportunity for parents to discuss all aspects of child support with our skilled staff face to face,’ said CSA spokesperson Bruce Young. ‘The impact of separation can be overwhelming. There’s a lot to sort through and parents will have many

concerns as everyone adjusts to their new circumstances,’ he added. ‘While the Government was considering recommendations from the Parkinson Taskforce at this stage there is no change to child support payments. Your child support arrangements will stay in place while the Government considers both the report and its recommendations.’ A copy of the taskforce report can be obtained from www.facs.gov.au by phoning 1800 050 009. The information session will be held at the Civic Centre, corner Brett Street and Pacific Highway, Tweed Heads on Friday July 22 at 5.30 pm.

Local indigenous artist, Sean Kay, helps aspiring artists Karla Brown, Isabel Dere and Tanya Burkhardt (left to right) create a large mosaic at the Byron Youth Service (BYS) weekly workshops. The project was established to build a partnership between the BYS and the Arakwal Corporation, and hoped to increase the number of young indigenous people who access the service. Funding for the exercise has been supplied by Regional Arts and is supported by Wilson’s Tiles, Green Garage and the Byron Bay Cookie Company. When finished, the mosaic which features native plants and animals, will frame the entrance to the Byron Youth Service . All young people aged between 15 and 25 are welcome to come along and try their hand at flinging down some tiles. Workshops run between 3.30 and 6pm every Wednesday at the YAC.

Owners of holiday rental properties in residential areas of Byron Bay received a weak thumbs down from Councillors last week as they considered new planning regulations for the town. A proposal to name Watego’s Beach, Belongil and parts of Suffolk Park a permanent holiday letting zone was thrown out by Councillors who were concerned about the negative impact this could have on residents’ amenity. Attempts to list holiday letting in residential zones as a prohibited use fell in a heap when planning staff con-

ďŹ rmed that permanent holiday letting is already illegal, except in commercial or tourism zones. A recent tourism audit by Southern Cross University lecturer Meredith Lawrence, revealed that 17 per cent of all visitor accommodation is located in residential zones and estimated that this amounted to over 330 properties. Council is currently taking legal action against only two property owners in Byron Bay for illegal holiday letting. A third case was dropped when the owner ceased let-

ting the property. Council seems reluctant to publicise these facts however as a warning to other landlords and Councillors have so far failed to grasp the nettle and agree on a clear direction for staff to follow. Council needs to get off the fence on permanent holiday letting and issue a clear signal to property agents and owners. Enforcing the regulations will understandably lead to a furore among angered landlords and create a huge headache for Council’s already stretched compliance ofďŹ ces, but to con-

tinue to turn a blind eye can only lead to an increase in the number of homes used for holiday lettings and more anguish for residents. Casual holiday letting, the practice where residents rent out their homes while on annual holiday, was removed from the draft Local Environment Plan and is tipped to be included in the Development Control Plan at a later date. No doubt providing Councillors with hours of fun debating the ďŹ ne line between an average length holiday and a commercial operation.

Local youth oppose star smokers Young people from around NSW are rallying against the positive portrayal of smoking in movies, with Hannah S t r o u d - Wa t e r s f r o m McLeans Ridges, Lismore and others volunteering to get behind the Cancer Council campaign. ‘When we launched the Smoking in Movies campaign in March we were taken aback by the number of youth who said they were angry when they realised they were prey to this form of tobacco marketing,’ said Diana Fisher from the Cancer Council’s Far North Coast regional ofďŹ ce. ‘More than 1500 young people from around NSW voted in the campaign’s survey, naming Catherine ZetaJones and Bridget Jones’ Diary as the worst offenders for promoting smoking in movies. Around 160 young people also indicated they were keen to work with the Cancer Council to reduce the impact of tobacco on youth.’ In March, the Cancer Council launched a cinema ad to be shown immediately before movies that have inappropriate levels of smoking. According to the Cancer Council, studies have found that screening an ad in this way encourages young people to question and challenge the smoking they see in the following movie. Byron Cinemas screened the advertisement and have supported awareness raising campaigns by the Cancer Council. ‘There is a large body of evidence showing that movies are a key inuencer for young people’s decision to start smoking. That’s why in the past tobacco companies have paid so much for product placement,’ said Diana.

Bids in for Lennox pub The auction for the Lennox Point Hotel took place in Sydney last Friday with several interested parties taking part in the bidding. Despite the good levels of interest, the reserve price of $15 million was not reached and the property was passed in at $12.75m. With the current highest bid at $13.5 million, Greg Haynes from John Parsons Hotels, the agent responsible for the sale of the hotel, is conďŹ dent that the hotel will sell for an acceptable price. ‘There are four genuinely

interested buyers involved in negotiations at the moment, so I am conďŹ dent that the hotel will sell for a good price,’ said Mr Haynes. ‘We’ve sold properties for Mr Condon and Mr Judd before and have always been successful. Auctions are unpredictable: sometimes you get your asking price under the hammer and sometimes it can take some negotiation.’ All four interested parties are experienced hoteliers operating hotels in NSW and Queensland.

Sporting fields closer for Suffolk Park

UPGRADING THE PACIFIC HIGHWAY

Planning for Suffolk Park’s first sporting facility got under way last week as the community and Council took to the Beech Drive site with tape measures and plans to find out how many courts, fields and tracks could be squeezed in to the land. On the drawing board is a multi-functional complex, providing facilities for children of all ages including playground equipment, a skatepark, day/evening tennis courts, a junior cricket pitch and practice nets, a basketball court, general purpose football field, Little Athletics running tracks and an amenities block with showers and toilets. Members of the Byron Catchment Community, Sporting & Recreation Working Group have taken on the task of driving the project and turning a long held dream into reality. Following extensive consultation with the local community, Council last year adopted a Plan of Management for the parcel of community land adjacent to the proposed school site off Beech Drive. Initial funding of $265,000 from Section 94 developer contributions was finally allo-

Community centre clears legal costs

When the Byron Community and Cultural Centre held its AGM recently, it celebrated two major achievements: elimination of the Centre’s legal debt and the purchase of a Steinway grand piano. In 2002, the Centre incurred legal costs of $164,000 as a result of legal action taken by the Over Our Dead Body group against the new building. According to the centre committee, the legal action increased the cost of building the centre by around $300,000.

The AGM also heard reports on the Centre’s other activities, including its ongoing community services and the Byron Bay community market. The new venue is going from strength to strength as the Centre builds its reputation across the Northern Rivers region and beyond. In 2004 and 2005, the theatre and other spaces were used for many different cultural activities. Hire of the centre has increased steadily since it opened two and a half years ago, with community organisations representing the majority of hirers. Community hire is 50% of the commercial rate in the theatre and approximately 70% of the rate for other spaces. The centre supports a number of groups by providing free or low-cost venue hire. It gives ongoing support to the parent and pregnancy support groups as well as one-off sponsorship for special events such as Sorry Day. The centre now employs six ongoing staff and around 21 casual staff at the market once a month. It has more than doubled the staffing complement since 2002, consistent with its aim of using the venue to generate new employment and skill development opportunities. Volunteers are the backbone of the organisation and at any one time, there are 80 or more volunteers on the books.

Minister cuts Byron rate increase The Minister for Local Government has knocked back Byron Shire Council’s plan to increase rates by 13.5%, instead approving a 9.5% hike. A decision was made by the state government to keep rate increases throughout NSW below 10%, although the official guideline or ‘pegging’limit for 2005/06 was 3.5%. This was to be the last year in a four year strategy of rate increases for Byron Shire

Council under their Rates to Recovery program. Council has indicated they will extend the program in to 2006/07 to ‘recoup’ the 4% lost this year. Residential ordinary rates will now climb to 0.24882 cents in the dollar, business rates go up to 0.37323, the Byron Bay Business Centre rate will become 0.49764 and the farmland rate will come in at 0.18345 cents in the dollar.

Sound youth projects wanted The Byron Youth Activity Centre is calling for young people aged 12 –25 years with innovative ideas for sound and audio projects to undertake a project mentorship in the centre’s Splendour Studio. The Splendour Studio at Byron Youth Activity Centre was established with proceeds from Splendour in the Grass 2003. Six thousand dollars was raised and subsequently spent on the pur-

chase of studio equipment for free use by young people on audio projects after undertaking a number of introduction sessions with a studio mentor. POCKET Youth Radio was aired on Bay FM and nationally on com.rad.sat. If you are a young person aged 12 –25 with an audio project in mind, contact the Byron Youth Activity Centre today on 6685 5775 and get your project off the ground.

Renting laws under review The Northern Rivers Community Legal Centre’s Tenants’ Service and the Tenants Union of NSW cautiously welcomes the review of NSW renting laws. The Tenants’ Service and the Tenants’ Union of NSW has welcomed the release by the NSW OfďŹ ce of Fair Trading of an options paper for reform of NSW residential tenancy laws, but has expressed caution about some of the options oated. ‘For a long time the Tenants’ Union has said that our renting laws need to be reformed to protect the interests of the more than 700,000 NSW households who rent their homes,’ said

David Vaile, chairperson of the Tenants’ Union. The Tenants’ Service and the Tenants’ Union will analyse all options in the paper and make submissions to the government. ‘We note that the options paper makes positive suggestions relating to tenants whose landlords default on their mortgages, and to problems in co-tenancies,’ said Ms Dowsett, senior advocate of the NRCLC Tenants’ Service. ‘Our current renting laws do not deal with these problems well and we look forward to law reform in these areas. ‘On the other hand, we are disappointed that yet again

the government has ignored the need for law reform that would provide enforceable rights for boarders and lodgers and for people listed on tenant databases of ‘blacklists’. ‘We urge anyone with an interest in tenancy laws, especially tenants, to read the options paper and make a submission.’ The review is being conducted by the OfďŹ ce of Fair Trading. The options paper, and information on how to make a submission, is available at www.fairtrading.nsw. gov.au or by calling 02 9338 8937. Submissions close August 31.

Prizes for youth in alcohol project NSW Health’s youth alcohol awareness and education competition Play Now Act Now is set to run for a fourth year in 2005. Play Now Act Now is an initiative of the NSW Government’s Youth Alcohol Action Plan 2001-2005 and of the NSW Summit on Alcohol Abuse. The project has been developed as a partnership between NSW Health and Metro Screen. The competition provides a unique opportunity for young people aged between 18 and 25, living in NSW to examine the health, social and cultural consequences of alcohol misuse through a creative peer to peer approach. In 2005, Play Now Act Now will continue to run as a video and ďŹ lm competition but will also be expanded to include a writing and design

competition. Prizes will include a share in $10,000 cash, industry internships, training courses and the chance to be published in a magazine to be distributed statewide. Judges will assess entries based on their artistic merit, knowledge, insight and critique of the alcohol issues addressed. Information Sessions will shortly be held around the state and will be open to all interested parties, including those interested in producing a short ďŹ lm, short story or design; and those interested in the issues of Young people, alcohol and drugs.

Council starts ood height survey The recent ooding in the north of Byron Shire may have been a one in 100 year event according to some sources. Residents of ood areas are being asked to contact Council with photographs of flood marks or water heights at the peak of the ood to help them compile an up-to-date ood mark survey. Surveyors from Manly Hydraulics Laboratory will be carrying out ďŹ eldwork in Billinudgel, South Golden Beach, Ocean Shores North, Ocean Shores and New Brighton to obtain water level information from the ooding of two weeks ago. The information will help council update their flood modelling of the Marshalls Creek flood plain and be used to determine flood heights and safe building heights. Anyone with flood level information should call Peter Davidson of Manly Hydraulics Laboratory on 9949 0200 or Michael King at Byron Shire Council on 6626 7026. Council is asking callers to supply the location of the flood mark, whether the mark is exact or approximate, was it taken at the peak of the ood and if so what was the time at the peak, if not was the level noted before or after the peak. Damage estimates of at least $25 million for the south east Queensland the northern NSW storms are being quoted by the Insur-

ance Disaster Response Organisation (IDRO) which monitors insured damage claims. ‘While many of the claims from damaged homes and cars are already in, the full impact on business will take longer to asses and that may push the insurance bill even higher,’ said Chris Henri, National Coordinator of the IDRO. Many residents in the affected areas were not insured and are now struggling to cope with the ďŹ nancial implications of the oods. The Lismore and District Financial Counselling Service has compiled a series of fact sheets covering issues such as negotiating with creditors and accessing hardship provisions. Copies of the information sheets can be ordered on 6622 2171 or from the service’s website at www.financialcounselling. org.au. In the wake of the widespread flooding, the State Emergency Service has issued a warning about the dangers of entering flood waters. ‘Entering flood water is the leading cause of death during floods,’ said SES Director General, Brigadier Philip McNamara said. ‘Recent rescues in flood affected areas highlight the dangers of entering ooded areas and areas that are subject to ash ooding during heavy rains,’ he added. Byron Shire recorded one fatal drowning with the death

Melissa’s sale to help ood-affected Melissa Moule is a resident of Mullumbimby who, like all of us, was shocked and upset by the impact the devastating oods have had on the community. As one of the lucky ones who sustained no damage to her home, Melissa desperately wanted to help those less fortunate than herself. ‘I was overwhelmed by a story I heard from a friend about a single mother with three children who lost ever ything – literally everything, beds, clothes etc – in the oods,’ said Melissa. ‘She has nowhere to put her

children to sleep at night and has to start all over again. I know that there are other people out there in similar situations and really want to help.’ Melissa has taken the initiative and is organising a day at Durrumbul Hall when anyone who would like to help may drop off unwanted household items such as clothes, towels, blankets, electrical goods etc. and those ood affected people in need may take them home. ‘Really we’d be grateful for anything; if you take a look

around your house at ground level and see what you keep there that would be damaged by a flood, that’s what we need. We’d also be happy to take cash donations and services or transport.’ Melissa is also calling on local businesses to offer assistance with sponsorship for ood victims. Donations can be dropped into the Durrumbul Hall between 8am and 11am on Sunday July 17, and those in need may come and collect from 12pm onwards. Offers of help to Melissa on 6684 4229.

Battlers rise up on IR ‘reform’ Vol 20 #08

July 12, 2005

Density intensity Anyone with a good memory or an interest in local planning matters will know that Byron Shire Council has been wrestling to update Byron Bay’s development regulations for at least the past five years. After a marathon Council meeting, or two, Councillors finally agreed last week on a new development formula for the town which will go on public exhibition in the near future. The draft Local Environment Plan (LEP) clears the way for a new residential subdivision at Belongil Fields, seeks to protect the town’s older houses through Heritage Conservation Areas, and aims to increase the stock of affordable housing by allowing garden flats in all urban residential zones. During the many phases of this tortuous process when the community was consulted, a desire for the town to remain relatively low density emerged as a popular and recurring theme. High-rises are not on the drawing board for Byron Bay, indeed the three storey limit in the town centre and two storeys in residential areas remains. Medium density developments or units have been discouraged (by increasing the required lot size) in most residential areas, but are still allowed in the Shelley Drive and Cooper Street precincts, close to the beach and in the centre of town. The rules concerning dual occupancies remain unchanged. All trace of that thorniest of issues, holiday letting, was erased from the new LEP, but for more on that see the news pages. One of the most significant changes is the identification of 40 hectares centreing on Belongil Fields as a future urban development site. While much of the land is environmentally constrained and parts will be dedicated for public open space, the LEP lists manufactured home estates, Department of Housing accommodation, residential units, and shops among the permitted development options. The significance of Byron Bay’s older houses has been recognised through three Heritage Conservation Areas which will require homeowners to seek Council assessment of their property before development or demolition. Preservation of the character of Carlyle, Kingsley and Ruskin Streets, Burns and Wentworth Streets and parts of Shirley Street should be the result of this new planning initiative, which started as an idea from several heritage-minded individuals in the community. An admirable but ambitious plan to require all new developments larger than five lots to dedicate 20% of the homes to affordable housing fell at the finishing post. Councillors asked for more research on a move which, while providing cheaper accommodation for lower paid residents, would undoubtedly attract an outcry from many developers. A consolation for affordable housing lobbyists was the introduction of small (60 square metres) garden flats, which will be permitted throughout the town’s residential areas, regardless of lot size. While Council steered away from any Gold Coast style scenarios, the cumulative effect of the future development model are likely to provide a recipe for greater road congestion and put car parking spaces on the endangered species list.

t is a great relief to return to Australia and ďŹ nd the Labor Party speaking with one voice, even if all it is saying is will Mark Latham please go away. Actually that’s not quite fair; Labor is also fairly unanimous about the need to oppose John Howard’s industrial relations legislation. This is indeed a subject on which all sections of the party can agree: left and right, workers and aspirationals, traditionalists and trendies. The difficulty for the beleaguered parliamentary party is that the running is being made not by the movement’s political wing, but by its industrial base. It’s not that Kim Beazley isn’t trying; for once there is genuine passion in his condemnation of a government which, in the past, he has frequently allowed to get away with murder (in the case of asylum seekers, almost literally). But his best efforts are being drowned out by the pre-emptive strike launched by the ACTU and its battlehardened secretary Greg Combet. Combet’s attack and the modest advertising campaign that has accompanied it are not only spot on (claims by Howard and others that they are misleading are themselves lies) but have been devastatingly effective. Perhaps for the ďŹ rst time, the battlers who have naively believed that a conservative government could be trusted to look after their interests are having serious doubts. Howard has been forced to take personal control of the struggle for hearts and minds (not that he was reluctant – the destruction of organised labour has been an obsession since his schooldays) and release his own

advertising under the benign headline: MORE JOBS, HIGHER WAGES, A STRONGER ECONOMY. Well, up to a point. Given that Howard and his ministers are, for the first time, unwilling to guarantee that no one will be worse off, one can only assume that the results will be little short of catastrophic for a large proportion of the workforce. Howard’s assertion that his plan is simply evolutionary, a natural progression from what has gone before, is equally absurd. If the destruc-

the precedent with his GST campaign many years ago, and he’s not about to embrace more honourable standards now. Given the public resources at his disposal, he will probably win the initial publicity battles and even when the changes become law many employers may hang back from exploiting the draconian new powers at their disposal, at least in a period of high employment and severe skill shortages; at first the victims will be conďŹ ned to the weakest and least articu-

Perhaps for the ďŹ rst time, the battlers who have naively believed that a conservative government could be trusted are having serious doubts. by Mungo MacCallum tion of the Industrial Relations Commission, a fundamental of Australian society since federation, and its replacement with an employer puppet preposterously called the Fair Go Commission (shades of 1984) is not a radical change, then Howard is a genuine liberal and I am a Dutchman. It is worth noting, incidentally, that the government advertising campaign is yet another gross misuse of taxpayers’ money; the legislation for Howard’s revolution is not even drafted, let alone enacted by parliament. The so-called ‘factual information’ (shortly to be enhanced by a wildly emotional electronic campaign) is not about informing the public of changes to their entitlements and obligations, but about softening them up for the assault, when it ďŹ nally comes. However, Howard set

late. But as time goes on increasing numbers will ďŹ nd that they are in fact losers, and that they have been conned yet again by Honest John. They will be at least tempted to turn back to Labor. Beazley and his colleagues may ďŹ nally have an opportunity to persuade them to do so.

I

n the meantime, Labor is once again being urged to abandon its traditional ideal of a fairer and more equal society (‘the politics of envy’, as those seeking to safeguard their own positions of privilege describe it) and to pay more attention to the travails of the top end of town, as if the Libs weren’t already doing that job with a single minded tenacity. A Mr D Webber of the highly predatory Macquarie

Bank recently bemoaned his plight: ‘I live in a $2 million house, but there is not much else,’ he snivelled. ‘While I am on a big income, my lifestyle soaks that up.’ Oh, the tragedy of it. It was reminiscent of a letter writer to the Sydney Morning Herald last year who explained patiently to the readers that there was a good reason that the rich needed more money than the poor: it was because they had higher expenses. While one expects this nonsense from the self-interested, it is alarming to ďŹ nd it within the Labor Party itself. Craig Emerson, a former front bencher who should know better, stated last week that someone ear ning $100,000 a year in Sydney was not rich. Twaddle, Mr Emerson. Rich and poor are comparative terms, and those with incomes within the top ďŹ ve percent of the population are by deďŹ nition rich. The fact that they want to become richer is a matter of greed, not of economics.

A

nd dear old George W Bush, still defiantly refusing to set greenhouse gas emission targets, has his own solution to global warming: soon, he told a breathless media, we would all be driving hydrogen powered cars. The last political loony to espouse this idea was the late and unlamented Joh Bjelke-Petersen, who also believed in miracle cures for cancer. Sure, hydrogen powered cars (if they eventually become practical and widespread) would help, but they hardly constitute a coherent, long-term policy. That, of course, is far too hard for a man too lazy to learn to pronounce the word nuclear.

NAIDOC thanks The Arakwal people – thank you for your sharing of NAIDOC celebrations at the cultural awareness day. I had a great time being amongst the elders and families having fun and time together. Well done Delta and Gavin and all the various groups that made the day memorable. I look forward to more days such as this throughout the Shire as part of the reconciliation process. The desire to know and begin to understand other cultures empowers us to work together in times of adversity. Good life to you all. Marie Hayes

A deluge of ood experts Q Jim Mangleson stated that the recent flooding in the north of the Shire was manmade and cites the various reasons. But he failed to mention the ones that would have had the most impact. Since the last one-in-onehundred-year ood (1987), in the South Golden Beach area there has been the completion of the North Ocean Shores, Fern Beach and Sea Lark Cove estates. At Billinudgel the El Dorado Industrial Estate (weir) ďŹ lled in a huge volume of ood plain. There are ďŹ ngers of blame (some, I’m told, loaded with litigation) pointed in all directions, but they should not be aimed at the builders, engineers, councils or developers. After all it was the Land & Environment Court and the Carr government that told us that these developments would be OK. Like everyone else, I’m

looking forward to the construction of a new highway so I can escape from the B-doubles, but like Jim Mangleson, I’m dreading the ďŹ rst extended period of rain (not just one day) after its completion. The Costa of the Carragance might be a budget blowout owing to an increase in disaster relief funds. P Anderson

South Golden Beach Q As a long term member of Council’s Marshalls Creek Floodplain Management Committee, I find it disappointing to hear the uninformed calls for various ood works ranging from constructing ocean ‘outlets’, to enlarging the Kallaroo Circuit Bund, to dredging the north arm of the Brunswick River. What a pity these new ‘flood experts’ paid little attention during the extensive community consultation dur-

ing 1997 that went with the development of the Marshalls Creek Floodplain Management Plan. The large scale works listed above (plus others) were assessed by real flood management experts and found to be unworkable. The Plan acknowledged that we cannot reduce ooding on our floodplain through any large-scale engineering works. So the Plan aimed at works such as house-raising at New Brighton and prohibiting developments that would reduce flood storage areas (low-lying areas). Unfortunately old development consents could not be changed and so for example we lost five per cent of the whole oodplain storage area due to the Fern Beach development. If the Kallaroo Circuit Bund pipes had been enlarged prior to this downpour then instead of half a metre of water downstairs in our

house, the Capricornia Canal levee would have been breached and the water would have been more than a metre throughout South Golden Beach, and it would have stayed longer (and therefore most wouldn’t have been covered by insurance). During the development of the Floodplain Plan many myths were put to rest, but obviously not everyone paid attention. Of course there are those who will never let go of these myths no matter how much evidence is put before them. Here are some of the myths that were put to rest: That dredging the Marshalls Creek would reduce ooding; that this creek has been silting up for some time; that there were a number of natural flood outlets north of New Brighton; and that the river walls at Brunswick Heads were increasing ood heights.

Obviously I cannot detail the assessments of these myths here due to space constraints. Those interested should read the background report which accompanied the Floodplain Management Plan. Apart from technical assessments, readers will ďŹ nd 38 pages presenting the ood records and views of long-term local families. Their documented memories date back to the late 1800s. Those who were there say there was never natural flood outlets (except at the turn of the century at Wooyung); that Readings Bay was always shallow, etc. Still, those like the Manglesons and those that parrot their misguided views, remain: I prefer accurate information that doesn’t give people false hope and promote unwarranted antiCouncil sentiment.

Too powerful

Much of what he says may be true, but I do believe the point remains that I should be given the right to choose what I eat. I suspect many others in the area may feel the same way, and if I’m wrong I wouldn’t think the restaurant would have much hope of success. Yes indeed, a special town. All peace, love and harmony – as long as you toe the party line. Express any other opinion and it quickly turns ugly.

ditions in which we live continue to worsen. This cannot mean that a ‘conspiracy’ exists, because all branches of the media tell us so! Yet the points made by Mr Lawler have been made by quite a number of us over the years. I have personally ‘been at it’ for some 35 years, but my efforts pale to insigniďŹ cance alongside the warnings of CH Douglas, a double qualified engineer and classics scholar, who revealed the aims of the ‘conspirators’ and their sycophants as far back as 1919. All of his forecasts, based on his understanding of the ‘faceless men’ have been spot on. Can it be pure coincidence that the international bankers, the Communist Party, Freemasons, the Fabian Socialists, the world federalists, the Bilderberger Society, the Trilateral Commission, and the Council on Foreign Relations all tell us we need a world government? Does anyone still believe there is no conspiracy?

Sewage on the loose Last week’s Echo informed concerned Ocean Shores people that our Council denies their sewage overow claims while stating any sewage entering flood waters would have been isolated. Up river in Mullumbimby as expected we had a very large volume of raw sewage go straight into the river via the overow pipe down at Mill Street. Even before we had enough rain to reverse the upstream flow of the tidal flow the overflow pipe was

discharging raw sewage to the river. Twenty-four hours after the rain stopped raw discharge continued into the river. The town’s sewage piping system leaks like a sieve in heavy rain and overloads. A portion of the town’s raw sewage is then diverted straight into the river before even reaching the treatment works. I reported this situation two years ago in The Echo after frustration with lack of action via my membership of the Brunswick Wastewater Steering Committee of Byron Council. Council were then quick to assure the community, measurers were in process to correct thus situation. A lot of work has been done but not much progress has been made. The fact is that we have a very deep (much is below sea level), old, patched, leaking sewage reticulation system in a town with normally high water tables and rainfall. We don’t even have a monitoring system that works to measure the volume of the overows, just me in my gumboots. I have seen a lot of raw sewage from Mullum go to the river in the last three years, and can’t see much improvement. I have seen enough to say the current reticulation system needs to be written off and just like a

rusty car that’s past it, we are throwing good money and effort into a bottomless pit. The style of system Mullum has was designed and built in the 60s and not what would be considered adequate today considering Mullum’s low levels.

Brunswick Heads Q Hands up those who know that the ‘Don’t be a Tosser’ signs on the new steel poles at the entrance of Byron Bay were paid for by the tobacco industry. Not many, I bet. The Butt Littering Trust was formed by British American Tobacco Australia in 2003 with a million dollar budget to roll out its ‘holistic butt litter reduction strategy’. Check out their website on www.bata.com.au. The Department of Environment and Conservation NSW received funding from the tobacco industry so that

these advertisements could be placed. Some people would also not know that ‘tosser’ is the English slang word for a wanker. It’s not a very nice way to greet visitors to Byron Bay. More sinister though is the fact that the tobacco industry is delighted to fund this campaign. And why? You notice there are no health warnings on these ads. Sure it appears they are designed solely to discourage people from leaving their butts on beaches or in the streets, which is certainly a major problem. In actual fact, though, what these advertisements are really doing, and those with experience in advertising would know this, is legitimising a continuation of

smoking as a socially acceptable habit. The underlying message is that smoking is OK as long as you don’t leave butts everywhere. You don’t seriously believe that the tobacco industry would invest millions of dollars in a campaign that was going to harm their sales and their legitimacy? The end result is that we have large but subtle cigarette advertisements at the entrance of Byron Bay – reminding people to smoke. The tobacco industry must be laughing all the way to the morgue. No doubt DEC had the best of intentions and needed to be seen to be doing something ‘environmental’ with its slashed budget. It is exceedingly regrettable that the Carr government has

underfunded DEC to the extent it has to go cap in hand to the tobacco industry for funding. Well intentioned people who wish to address the intractable butt problem have unfortunately been conned by the greatest con artists of the lot – an industry which, without a twinge of conscience, kills literally half of all its hopelessly addicted victims. Instead of allowing the tobacco industry to subliminally advertise its wares, the existing laws against littering should be more actively enforced and perhaps we could ban smoking on our beaches altogether as other councils have. But then the tobacco industry wouldn’t like that, would it? Richard Jones

unwanted tourism’ and I support the Chamber of Commerce and ‘festivals supported more by business and visitors rather than residents’. I presume all members of the Chamber of Commerce and all those who support the Kites & Bikes and Old & Gold events by helping out on the day like me are also ineligible to be members of BRAVO. This could cut out a lot of Brunswick’s residents, even including BRAVO’s own president Leigh Rees who held a garage sale during the last two Old & Gold weekends. BRAVO (Brunswick Residents and Villagers Organisation), despite its name, is not a representative residents’ organisation, but rather a narrow ginger group as evidenced not only by their stance but also their process. At their inaugural meeting, BRAVO dispensed with almost all normal meeting protocols, didn’t consider adopting a set of rules or constitution and didn’t take a proper vote on anything. BRAVO’s mission statement actually makes no reference to ‘unwarranted tourism’. By endorsing the vision statement of the Brunswick Heads Settlement Strategy, BRAVO’s mission statement actually supports ‘a dynamic local

business sector with developments underpinned by principles of environmental sustainability’ and ‘employment opportunities for all residents’. BRAVO doesn’t want festivals to ‘be organised over the next two years while the bottleneck caused by the RTA Road reconstruction is under way’. Are they serious? Kites and Bikes and Old & Gold take up only three days, with no roadworks happening on at least two of those days anyway. As for ‘unwanted tourism’ Brunswick was predominately a fishing, holiday home, and tourist location for many years before it developed its current residential/holiday town mixed character and up to the late 1970s it had for more tourist accommodation that Byron Bay. As early as 1921 a Town Improvement Committee was promoting Brunswick as a low key nature based holiday location and as our Mayor Jan Barham recentlypointed out, ‘tourism is an essential part of our identity and economy’. The Draft Tourism Management Strategy is both consistent with all previous community based visions for the town and a serious and balanced attempt to grapple continued on page 12

Pagan stirring At the risk of stirring up the ‘pagans’ this letter is about Creation as per the Bible. Whoa – hang on – what a provocative subject in the Byron Shire! Science has not disproved the Bible – in fact quite the reverse – using the same facts as secular science Christian scientists are more and more showing how God’s Word is describing many aspects of His Creation in simple non-scientific language that are either provable or at least more plausi-

Bangalow Q I have a proposal arising from your editorial ‘Where’s the Voice?’. Part 1:That Byron Bay should be re-named Business Bay. Part 2: That all residents should be registered as shareholders and receive a yearly ble than today’s ‘scientific’ explanations. Perhaps this is why the increase in the secular rejection is growing – Satan will do anything to draw people away from God! The Creation Science DVD program that I have had running for over twelve months has drawn only a few participants – from just two local churches. Ever y attendee has been a committed Christian so the audience I’m trying to reach, the agnostics, the disbelievers etc is not coming. Each church in this district could benefit if only we will co-operate with one another for the sole purpose of drawing our neighbours into God’s Kingdom. I let the films do the talking and I don’t refer to any individual church doctrine or do any preaching. My emphasis via the DVDs is solely to show Biblical truth from a stand-

When I voted Green and handed out how-to-vote leaflets for the Greens at the last election, I did not realise I was voting to give the Byron Bay chamber of commerce a veto over such a simple, mainstream, commonsense measure as paid parking.

for councillors who’d go weak at the knees so easily. Over the ten years I’ve lived here, the Green/progressive side of politics has called consistently for measures whereby the local community would get a reasonable return from the massive and massively profitable tourism industry that imposes substantial extra costs, inconvenience and irritation on ordinary ratepayers and residents. For years people lobbied for bed taxes. The state government refused. Apart from higher rates on commercial property, paid parking seems the only other measure available. If you listened to the chamber of commerce, you’d think paid parking was a bolshie, greenie, pinko, anti-business

outrage perpetrated only by Stalinist dictators. ‘We’ll all be rooned,’ they scream like a squawk of starlings. The ugly truth is they want every dollar from tourism in their own pockets and not one cent returned to the ratepayers who pay for the roads, footpaths, garbage service, sewerage system and so on that tourism relies on. Shame, you selfish bullies, shame. Drive up to Brisbane CBD and see how much you pay to park. I would guess Brisbane experiences about the same ‘parking pressure’ (number of vehicles per available space) and accept that if I want to park in the CBD I need to allow about $10 for parking. Even Launceston and Devonport in northern Tasmania, with nothing like

the parking pressure here, have paid parking throughout their CBDs. It’s no big deal and not the end of business as we know it. Paid parking is a normal, widely-practised and widelyaccepted revenue-raising measure for local government. Ratepayers are entitled to a reasonable social dividend from tourism – after all, we bear the vast bulk of the costs and inconvenience. I urge Council to adopt a system of paid parking (residents exempt) throughout the commercial zone and make it as profitable as possible. Mayor Jan, you’ll need to use your casting vote to get it through – wow, that will impress me.

spray was called off when ROAR informed Council that mothers had mobilised to march on the works depo with their children so the Services Manager could tell the children why Council was poisoning their parks and sports fields. Weeding and slashing are now taking place instead and I have had a lot of feedback from people who are delighted at being to be able to shop and enjoy being in town with out breathing offgassing RoundUp. As for re-registering each year, apparently Council does send out notices, a better idea would be for residents to be considered permanently registered unless they notified Council that they wished to be once again exposed. I suggest a box to tick saying unless notified otherwise, I wish to be permanently protected from RoundUp, thus saving paper (trees) and Council work time. Duncan is also mistaken in believing that everyone in the Shire can apply for the register. When I first began negotiating with Council, I was told that all the names I supplied would be put on a register, being chemically sensitive was not a requirement. When I immediately came back with over 25 names, it seemed to freak Council out and I was told I was cheating, had obtained the names by devi-

ous means and that people would have to apply themselves, which most of them did. So then the goal posts were changed once again and residents had to prove chemical sensitivity to apply. One in eight Australians are now chemically sensitive as a result of overexposure to chemicals such as RoundUp and we are all potentially chemically sensitive. As such we should all be given the right to apply and yes, Duncan, then we could stop RoundUp (glyphosate) in our streets and along our road sides.

Waste grappling A belated reply to Duncan Dey’s letter on the proposed Rural Garbage Service to provide some factual information and counter-balance a number of points Duncan makes. I am a long-standing member of Council’s Solid Waste Management Committee. The committee has grappled with this and other waste issues for many years – all with the intention of managing a better waste service for the community and adopting practices to help reduce the amount of waste generated. In fact we spent around two years working on the Shire’s Waste Strategy. This

Q Your opinion piece, ‘Where’s The Voice?’ (Echo, July 5), highlights, and maybe exacerbates, one of the great shortcomings of our democracy. That you are calling for the community to raise its voice overlooks the basic element of democracy that we elect representatives to conduct our communal affairs in our interests. Of course, local government is set very bad examples by state and federal governments. At their levels we only get to choose, in reality, from a clutch of hand picked, ‘pre-selected’ indeed, candidates, favoured by the party machines. These ‘representatives’ then vote according to party dictates paying more attention to well-funded, all-expenses-

Those who benefit from terrorism This means charges had been set in the building days in advance – days in advance of a ‘surprise attack’! 4. WTC 2 fell in ten seconds (free fall).WTC 1 fell in eight seconds – faster than gravity – because of the vacuum created by the high explosive used. This explosive blew huge girders upwards and outwards, up to 200 metres away, and pulverised the concrete to dust. 5. At the time of the WTC attack MORAD were conducting at least five wargames in NYC – simulating an attack on the WTC! This is why no fighters were scrambled. 6. No plane wreckage was found at the Pentagon. The ‘plane’ (a 757) allegedly disappeared through a fourmetre hole! Eye-witnesses described a small plane or missile. It goes on and on. Meanwhile, while the mainstream media remains silent, there are 100,000 websites devoted to objective analysis of the 9/11 attacks. So if it wasn’t Osama (from his cave in Tora Bora) and his

involved an extensive community consultation process with the strategy finally being adopted by Council in February 2003. From this flowed a Position Paper which addressed the wide range of issues raised – basically the nuts and bolts of what was possible and what wasn’t and the parameters we needed to address. This then went to Council in August 2004. All of what we did on the SWMC committee was endorsed by our elected Councillors. I also know that random surveying of rural residents was done across the Shire to ascertain their interest in a rural garbage service. A fair number of rural residents have already been using a fortnightly service provided by Richmond Waste. Council is now offering the equivalent service for half the price – previously $520 per year or $20 per fortnight, reduced to $142 per year. So, what’s the complaint? I also know that many properties will warrant an exemption because of access issues, or already have in place an alternative and adequate disposal of their waste. Knowing Duncan’s property I believe he would have an automatic exemption from paying anything. It is only the properties on roads accessed by the existing Richmond Waste truck – or new areas where it is viable for the truck to go – which will have to either accept the new service or pay the $10 opt-out service availability fee. This allows residents to

change their mind and hook up to a garbage service at any time, or for a new owner if the property is sold to access the service. Ten dollars a year is mere tokenism as Tweed Council charges $64 for the same item, Ballina charges $137 and it is compulsory. Clarence is $165, while Lismore is a low $5. It is common knowledge that some (and I don’t know what percentage but I have personally seen it happen and also found direct evidence in the bins!) rural residents put their waste into park and street litter bins and sometimes into householder’s bins. The emptying and servicing the park and street litter bins costs us ratepayers something like $250,000 per year and comes out of the Parks and Gardens funds. So, to sum it up, we who live in town subsidise the rural residents who dump their waste in park and street litter bins in town. Gayle Russell

Pets on the kill Wild dogs? Perhaps it’s possible things have changed so much in 25 years since I lived in isolated forest in back of Mullum, but I wonder if there’s a bit of sanitising happening here to protect the much maligned family dog. Back then, I would regularly hear packs of dogs baying as they ran wallabies to ground in their hunting frenzies. They also took down 18 goats on my friend’s property in the valley, leaving my agisted one

band of raggedy-arsed followers, who was it? Who has the resources, the expertise, the motivation... the track record? Think about it. So now, who was responsible for Bali, Madrid... and London. It’s unthinkable, isn’t it? Ask yourself ‘Cuo Bono?’: Who benefits? Wise up. David Gregson

Byron Bay Q Another terrorist attack has occurred, this time in London. My heart goes out to the people of my birth countr y and all those involved. It brings back a nightmare of memories from my experience with terrorism in Bali. It is a clear indication that the current methods of ‘fighting’ terrorism are not working, but are acting to increase likelihood of attacks. As long as people want to send a message via hurting people, there are always new ways to achieve this. The people wanted no part in the Iraq war, and now they are suffering as a result of because she luckily had horns. They only ripped her open a little bit trying to take her liver. So, when I looked out my window one day to check on my two year old daughter playing just below our front deck, I was naturally on alert when I saw three dogs surround her. One was a rottweiler type, the other two were knee high, fluffy, butter wouldn’t melt in their mouths kinda bitsas. They were all foaming at the mouth from the exertions of their hunt. Visions of Azaria in my head, I chased them off. Please, let’s get it straight. Maybe there are wild dogs out there now but I know from experience that it’s the uncontrolled domestic pets that have been killing wildlife and stock for years around here. That has not changed. Recently, a woman told me the dog next door harassed her chickens repeatedly until, one day, he just killed them all. He wasn’t wild, wasn’t hungry. He was the neighbour’s beloved dog. She was too kind to demand his demise. Pity, because he’s now got the taste of the hunt and I doubt he’ll be content with the verandah life for long. Trude Helm

their government’s so-called war on terror. If we are at war on terror, it is no surprise to me that terror is striking back. How many innocent civilians have we killed in Iraq? We have to seek peaceful, longterm solutions to terrorism. This involves questioning any reasoning behind acts such as this. Here we have an opportunity to change this world for the better. My direct message to Blair two years ago was to treat the causes of hatred and disparity, and the powerful countries currently meeting in Scotland have the ability to set cogs rolling to address poverty with long term solutions such as education and fair distribution of wealth. By caring for the environment which sustains life on this planet. The climate change affects the poorest countries first, although the greatest contributors to global warming are among the most wealthy, particularly the US. To truly understand the reasoning behind these acts, which are likely to continue, a level of dialogue should be

considered. This approach has not yet been attempted, and if leaders are serious about tackling problems of terrorism it is reasonable to consider finding out why this is occurring. Get to the source of the problems. If we are to take steps to restore balance to the world, true economic indicators of social and environmental costs are needed in order to reduce poverty.Those in immediate need must be aided and given methods to recover permanently. There is enough food produced globally to feed the world. The problem is distribution and economic systems which drive production and distribution. It is all linked: the poorest countries are Muslim and many are sick of getting the raw end of the deal. When they see their brothers in Iraq and Palestine being attacked and oppressed, this can increase hatred towards us. When people do not have proper access to education they are more likely to fall into anger and hatred. They have access to television and

can see our way of life and comparative wealth, this increases the numbers willing to take the step farther towards extremism. We have a responsibility here, and once again we are presented with an opportunity to change the intrinsic faults of our society. I have been a victim of terrorism, and I lost someone dear to me. I saw the effect on his parents and family. I witnessed the effects of one bomb, and it is truly horrific for every person concerned. This has to stop now! I want to see an end to all of this, not escalation. We cannot allow terrorism to become a normality. Let us treat the causes by looking inwards on our society, seeking to take responibility for our role in the world, not falling into the trap of escalating fear. Please, Howard, Blair and Bush, all those in positions of power, there is an alternative path to improve the mess our world is in, to bring a real end to terrorism. Hanabeth Luke

Q I was stunned an saddened by David Messiter’s casual mention (Letters, July 5) of the 19 foreign criminals allegedly responsible for the socalled terrorist attacks of 9/11.The fact that six of these suicide bombers are alive and well and that no Arabic names appeared on the American Airlines flight manifests seems to have passed Mr Messiter by. This is more than just nitpicking. In the wake of the recent London bombings, let’s have a quick look at that related incident on September 9, 2001: 1. No steel-framed hi-rise buildings have ever collapsed as the result of fire – except WTC 1, 2 and 7. 2. At the time of the attacks the TV networks were reporting explosions in and around the WTC complex. NewYork firemen reported multiple detonations as the towers collapsed – ‘just like controlled demolitions,’ said one. 3.WTC lease-holder Larry Silverstein, interviewed on PBS TV, admitted authorising the demolition of WTC7!

An insider’s view of the metamorphosis of Australian dining Review of Gay Bilson’s Plenty by Steve Snow

P

lenty has recipes and speaks of chefs but is not a cookbook. It is an enthralling read. A wonderful version of the metamorphosis of Australian dining viewed through the eyes of someone who was an integral part of it. Gay Bilson’s way with words and turn of phrase ensures the reader is constantly informed and captivated. You do not have to be involved in the restaurant industry to enjoy Plenty. The opening page sets the time, place, prejudices and family relationships that colour Bilson’s view of the world as a child. ‘Don’t you even think of touching the skin of pineapples or bananas, Chinamen have touched them,

wash your hands,’ says her grandma. Mothers are usually pivotal in a cook’s life. In Bilson’s case this is not so. ‘My Mother was the hard talker wanting all the attention.’ Bilson sought solace by climbing the backyard fruit tree and dreaming. Her restaurant life started at Tony’s Bon Gout. ‘I’d gone to bed with a cook and ended up with a restaurant and a b a b y.’ T h e m o n e t a r y dilemma is addressed when Bilson speaks of her reticence in employing new staff (even if they are cheap and you are absolutely overworked). Employing a kitchen hand can be the difference between making some money or nothing at all. I did not dine at Bon Gout but wish I had. Bilson explains, ‘Bon Gout was raw, Author and restaurateur Gay Bilson.

had minimal décor, cheap plates and glasses, with great food.’ Sounds good to me! Today, many restaurants rely on expensive fit outs and good looks to carry very ordinary food. Bilson believes there are definite parallels between the evolution of food and architecture in this country. How profound when she states ‘restaurants should not be expected to invent a new thing every Monday morning’. Why try and reinvent a Coliseum every Monday morning, or for that matter, a sauce Neapolitana? Bilson’s next restaurant was Berowra Waters Inn. Everyone who says ‘when I retire I might buy a little restaurant and kick back”

should read this chapter. Restaurants involve long hours, high stress, are hard on relationships, and, you are often poorly paid. Bilson’s description of presiding over Berowra Waters Inn transported me to Fins at Brunswick Heads. She speaks of snakes, water rats, beautiful scenery and the constant battle to run a restaurant in difficult circumstances while keeping people happy. Restaurants are disasters waiting to happen. I remember nights at Fins Brunswick Heads where water rats conducted victory laps of the dining room. You would book your special occasion outside by the river only to have to dine in the

rain if we were booked out. Unlike Berowra Waters Inn, there was no Glenn Murcutt design for us. Let’s not forget the punters that got drunk and wanted to fight me, nor the snakes that would crawl under tables. The piece de resistance occured in the middle of a busy service when a fisherman knocked on the back door seeking our permission to ‘rest’ a dead person found floating in the river. We declined, reasoning he was already dead and it would be bad for business. Bilson’s favourite foods often consist of offal and cream, perhaps due to her grounding in French cuisine with Tony Bilson. Her cooking collaboration with Janni Kryssis, involving their combination of loved ingredients like saffron and chillies, is one I wish I had not missed. Bilson moved to the Bennelong restaurant in the Opera House on Sydney Harbour. ‘I failed Bennelong and Bennelong failed me.’ Bilson was never comfortable working in the Opera House. ‘Unlike Berowra, people actually stole things and waiters basked in the reflected glory of the kitchen, while demanding more remuneration to deliver the food.’ It must be a cook’s thing. Like Bilson, who now seems to have found solace in the simplicity of seasonal produce at her farm in South Australia, I too provide for Fins and myself by using my home as a mini farmers market. Too often cooks have

scant regard for the freshest, organic produce. Bilson’s generosity is demonstrated by purposely buying extra pumpkins to give to the neighbors, and baking three cakes so she can give away two. A sense of generosity is paramount when running a restaurant. In Bilson’s chapter on annoyances she lists a personal one as eating dessert as it destroys the memory of the savoury. Being a person with a two cake a day habit our philosophies differ. She is on a roll when she states the only place for curly leaf parsley is in a butcher shop window. Bravo. Gay blushes on behalf of the chef at a much touted Parisian restaurant specializing in nouvelle cuisine when he presents a yabby broth in which floated a mousseline island. Rising from the island, at least fifteen centimetres high, were two chives. She states it seemed like an edible take on a Japanese flower arrangement. The aphorisms on gastronomy of French chef and a ‘father’ of nouvelle cuisine Fernand Point contained in this chapter are most enlightening. The most controversial notion of Plenty for me is Bilson’s disillusionment in not being able to make and serve sausages using her own blood. She elaborates, ‘I would be giving myself to others, no cook could do more.’ Well, Gay, the book is brilliant, and who am I to comment (having been sacked from both McDonald’s and KFC) but really, you can keep your sausages.

We consistently offer the biggest and most familiar literary names, alongside new and emerging writers of great talent.’ It is the emergence of the new that is a growing source of excitement for the festival. Not only new writers, but also new visitors. In this age of new media and confusing, conflicting means of entertainment and information, it seems the word is able to adapt and reinvent itself to maintain its relevance. Developing readers and writers are well catered for by the

festival, with an extensive range of events made available to secondary school students from years 7-12, full details of which may be obtained from the website www.byronbaywritersfestival.com. Younger readers have a venue all to themselves on Festival Saturday, showcasing bestselling picture book author Alison Lester, local writer Stephen Axelson and the wonderful Nike Bourke. Everyone’s favourite fantasy writer Isobelle Carmody will be launching her warm and earthy new book Little Fur and James Valentine, Simon Higgins and Brian Caswell will attract the teen readers. On Sunday afternoon, Brian Caswell will discuss young people and their relationship with literature in an event directed towards teachers and parents. Help the next generation of readers on their journey of exploration and discovery.

And while we’re talking new, let’s look at what else’s on offer. Writing for multi platform delivery: Kerry Sunderland is a web designer/ journalist who will speak with film maker Cathy Henkel about writing for different media, using Henkel’s Spike Milligan project as reference. The panel ‘Writing: what sort of career is that?’ examining how many jobs there are for writers in the new creative age, will also look at new media and the changing role of the writer. Bruno Bouchet’s passion is comedy. He encourages new writers to find their voice and will conduct Writing Humour: a workshop for teenagers in which he exhorts participants to leave their tortured souls behind and put the fun back into writing. Anyone who has read Bruno’s novels will know he is just the man to do it! Local success stories are surely epitomised by Byron

writers with new books being launched at the Festival. Akkadia Ford will present her third book, Egyptian Animals: Guardians to Gateways of the Gods and the popular poet Max Ryan will launch Rainswayed Night, published by Dangerously Poetic Press. Australian literary icon Robert Drewe will be launching his magnificent novel Grace and Jesse Blackadder’s much anticipated first novel After the Party will also be welcomed. Remembering Mothers, the Family History Writing Group’s anthology of stories, letters and poetry is on the list and Debbie Kruger, a Byron favourite, brings Songwriters Speak to the Festival. All launches are included in the three day pass,. Festival dates are August 4-7 and the workshop program begins on August 1. For bookings call Jetset on 6685 6262.

Pubs and clubs start to kick the smoking habit Alex McCauley The recent introduction of compulsory smoke free areas in pubs and clubs across NSW has been met with a mixed response. State government legislation has limited smoking in pubs and clubs to one area from July 4 2005 as part of a progressive move to ban smoking in all indoor areas of licensed venues by July 2007. NSW is not alone in taking steps to ban smoking in licensed venues. Since March 2004, Ireland, Norway, New Zealand, Sweden, Scotland and Italy have all passed smoke-free legislation. According to Anne Jones, chief executive of Action on Smoking and Health Australia (ASH), the move is a positive one, especially for employees working in bars and clubs who are exposed to high levels of passive smoke. ‘Occupational Health and Safety legislation is clear in its duty of care for workplaces to be safe for employees,’ said Ms Jones. ‘It is well documented and widely accepted that secondhand smoke is harmful. According to a press

release from Bob Carr last year, the average eight hour shift for an employee in a smoky environment such as a bar or club is approximately equal to smoking half a packet of cigarettes.’ The major concern that the licensed venues have with the legislation is loss of revenue, mainly from gaming. Rob Smith, general manager of Twin Towns in Tweed Heads, says that his establishment has spent $1 million on refurbishment in order to comply with the legislation and to try to minimise what he believes will be the negative impact the smoking ban will have on the club. ‘Victoria has seen a 20% reduction in gaming revenue since non smoking legislation has been introduced,’ said Mr Smith. ‘In Ireland, pub revenue has dropped by 20% and it is similar in New Zealand. Half of our revenue comes from gaming, so we have had to take the situation very seriously.’ Our local publicans have a different opinion. Terry McCulloch, manager of the Beach Hotel in Byron Bay

and The Hotel Brunswick ,has embraced the new legislation as a much needed step towards ensuring the safety of employees at the pub. ‘There’s no doubt that it’s in the best interests of the health of the staff,’ said Mr McCulloch. ‘I don’t forsee any problems for us as we have large beer gardens and have had a no smoking at the bar policy for more than eight years. We’ve made the public

bar at The Beach Hotel and the gaming room atThe Hotel Brunswick our smoking rooms. No doubt we’ll have people who forget themselves, but we’re confident that a gentle reminder will be all that is needed to enforce the rule.’ Laurie Driscoll, manager of The Hotel Great Northern, agrees. ‘In the short term licensed venues with no outdoor areas will be at a slight disadvantage, but once the

public has been educated things will settle down. I’m fully supportive of offering a safe working envirnoment for our employees.’ Despite having invested a good deal of money into an extremely effective exhaust system for The Backroom, Mr Driscoll tells us that he has decided to make the premier north coast entertainment venue and, perhaps more surprisingly, the gaming room non smoking. ‘We’ve nominated our public bar as the only smoking area in the hotel. This means that we comply with this year’s legislation and next year’s; there will be no further changes now until 2007 when the whole hotel must be smoke free.’ The current legislation requires that a multi room venue allow smoking in a maximum of one room whether it is a bar, gaming or recreation room, and that this room must not exceed 50% of the total combined area of bar/gaming recreational rooms. If a venue consists of a single room, then smoking is permitted in up to 50% of

that area. In addition, smoking is banned in toilets, foyers, lobbies, thoroughfares, dance floors and auditoria throughout all licensed venues. Ms Jones says that the legislation works well in multi room venues, but in the single room venues it is not successful because it has not addressed the drift of smoke. Further, she disputes the claims that non smoking legislation has a long term negative impact on business. ‘In the early stages of the legislation in Victoria, there was a slump in gambling revenue. However, it has now recovered to nearly the same levels as prior to the legislation. Reliable economic studies which rely on sales tax data indicate that the smoking ban has actually been good for business in most cases,’ said Ms Jones. ‘There is bound to be a drop in business in the early stages while smokers adjust, but as they are already accustomed to leaving the workplace to smoke outside, leaving the bar/club/poker machine for a smoke is surely not such a big step.’

MORE JOBS HIGHER WAGES A STRONGER ECONOMY Australians working together have helped to build a stronger economy and we have all benefited as a community. Since 1996 real wages have increased by 14.7% and well over 1,600,000 new jobs have been created as the economy has grown and businesses – small, medium and large – have employed more staff. New jobs and higher real wages are a direct result of a more efficient and growing economy. So too is our capacity to provide more health, education, social and community services. To keep Australia strong, we must continue to improve the way we work together so that our country can compete more effectively in a global economy. That’s why we can’t stand still. If we want Australian workers and their families to continue to enjoy the benefits of low unemployment, jobs growth, higher wages, low inflation and low interest rates – more needs to be done to keep the benefits flowing.

SENSIBLE AND FAIR CHANGES It is important that you know what is, and isn’t, being proposed and why. In 1996 when changes were made to workplace relations some people expressed concern. Others tried to exploit those concerns. But the results speak for themselves. Australians clearly benefited with more jobs, higher wages and a stronger economy.

OUR PLAN TO SAFEGUARD WAGES AND CONDITIONS • The Australian Government will protect the rights and conditions of Australian workers by legislation. Protected conditions include: 4 weeks annual leave, personal/carers leave, parental leave (including maternity leave), and a maximum number of 38 ordinary working hours per week.

KEY POINTS OF OUR PLAN We are committed to continuing Australia’s prosperity; to keep the strong economic benefits flowing to workers and their families; and to secure Australia’s future.

✔ New safeguards for wages and conditions – guaranteed by Federal legislation. ✔ Encourage a cooperative approach in the workplace. ✔ Simpler, fairer and more flexible workplace agreements. ✔ Safeguard workers with a modern award system. ✔ Protect workers against unlawful dismissal.

OUR PLAN FOR A SIMPLER AND EASIER PROCESS The Government’s plan is designed to make it simpler and easier for workers and employers to agree on working conditions. Workers on AWAs currently earn 13% more than workers on certified agreements, and 100% more than workers on award rates. All agreements will be required by law to meet the new test set out by the Australian Fair Pay and Conditions Standard.

✔ Preserve the right of workers to have a union negotiate a collective agreement if they wish.

THE AUSTRALIAN FAIR PAY AND CONDITIONS STANDARD

✔ One set of national laws to cover workplace relations.

This new Standard will be the test for all agreements.

WHAT WE WON’T DO

✖ WE WON’T cut 4 weeks annual leave ✖ WE WON’T remove the right to join a union ✖ WE WON’T cut award wages ✖ WE WON’T take away the right to strike ✖ WE WON’T abolish awards ✖ WE WON’T outlaw union agreements • Wage rates previously contained within awards will be set by the Australian Fair Pay Commission. These will not fall below the 2005 Safety Net Review decision and can be increased by the independent Commission. Awards will not be abolished. • The Australian Government will continue to protect workers with a fair and sustainable safety net of wages and conditions. A new body – the Australian Fair Pay Commission – will set a single adult minimum wage on a periodic basis. It will also adjust minimum junior, training and disability wages, wage rates previously contained within awards and casual loadings.

OUR PLAN TO SAFEGUARD WORKERS WITH A MODERN AWARD SYSTEM Awards will not be abolished. They will be updated so they continue to provide modern terms and conditions for those workers who choose not to have a workplace agreement.

OUR PLAN TO PROTECT AGAINST UNLAWFUL DISMISSAL Workers will continue to be protected from unlawful termination, including dismissal on discriminatory grounds such as: • family responsibilities, • pregnancy, • race and gender, • union membership, • political affiliations. It will also remain unlawful for workers to be forced to sign an Australian Workplace Agreement (AWA) or be sacked for refusing to sign an AWA. The Government’s plan includes assistance to workers who have been unlawfully dismissed. Laws introduced in 1993 which govern some aspects of unfair dismissal have not worked. They have cost jobs and continue to make employers reluctant to take on more workers. For this reason, businesses in the federal system with up to 100 employees will be exempted from those provisions to generate more jobs in small and medium businesses, the engine room of the Australian economy.

• It will safeguard workers rights and conditions. • It will be based on minimum and award wages, as set by the Australian Fair Pay Commission, and the guaranteed minimum conditions of employment as set out in legislation. • Workers and employers will be able to compare any proposed agreement against this new Standard.

THE AUSTRALIAN INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS COMMISSION To keep pace with our modern economy, the Australian Industrial Relations Commission will focus on dispute resolution and further simplification of awards.

A NATIONAL SYSTEM Australia currently has six different workplace relations systems. Forcing employees and employers to work with this complexity is something we can no longer afford to do. Australia only needs one set of national laws to cover workplace relations.

OUR PLAN FOR SECURING AUSTRALIA’S FUTURE By working together we will create more jobs, with higher wages in a stronger economy and secure the future for Australian workers and their families.

Articles The critic goes to the wall

Son also rises on this year’s Fatherhood Festival What does living the balance mean for fathers? For their families, relationships and their work? This and more will be explored at the 2005 Fatherhood Festival in September. The Fatherhood Festival at the A & I Hall and showgrounds in Bangalow features a Fatherhood Concert for families, with Jimmy Barnes singing with his daughter and Archie Roach onstage with his son Amos. Dr Bruce Robinson, author of Fathering from the Fast Lane, will travel from Western Australia to be the keynote speaker. The Dads Breakfast Party on Fathers Day is hosted by Steven Snow from Fins

Festival organising team, from left, Dave Hughes, Jill Benham, Alan Goldstein, Colin George, and Susanna Freymark.

Restaurant and Friday is a Conference Day for service providers. In partnership with ACE Byron Shire and award-winning artist Suvira McDonald,

a community arts project will be central to the weekend. With music, comedy, art and photography exhibitions and free activities for the kids, it is the place to be on Fathers

Day weekend this year. The full program booklet will be available on August 1. Any enquiries to 6688 4357 or check the website www. fatherhoodfestival.com.

If you are heading down to Sydney visit the Salmon Galleries at McMahon’s Point to see an exhibition of paintings by Echo movie critic, social commentator and Goonengerry artist John Campbell.

Your animal’s voice

‘Imagination or Intuition?’ is a two day workshop, July 31 and August 7, on learning to communicate with animals. Talking to animals is as natural as watching the sun set, we just need to remember how to do it, says Deb McBride. She has been working in the community of humans and animals for five years and during that time many people have asked her, ‘Can I do this?’ Well, the answer is yes and to help you find your animal’s ‘voice’, Deb is running the workshop. During the two days, participants will learn not only how to interpret the vibrational messages that animals are sending us but also the workshop will cover how to read the obvious signs from animals and how to better care for the physical needs of

our animals incorporating both traditional and alternative methods. As we lose touch with our environment, our natural cycles and our inner knowing, we also lose touch with the animals living around us, according to Deb. This is causing much harm in the community with distressed, abused and wild animals left to fend for themselves. Animal Communication is just one way of learning how to live in harmony with our surroundings by offering us the opportunity to look at animals in a different way and to consider the possibility that we may be able to change our way of seeing the world via the insights of our animals. For more information visit www.purelyanimal.com or contact Deb on 0412 455 512, email info@purely animal.com.

It seems that since September 9/11, terrorism in the Western World has become a way of life. Only hours after winning their Olympic bid, London got itself off to work only to ďŹ nd that its public transport system had become the latest terrorist target – although one of my co-workers did suggest that it could be some rogue French cell, shitty after Paris’s lost bid. Years of living with IRA bombings has meant the Londoners did seem to have more of the stiff upper lip about it all, and when they couldn’t get home, or get to work, they just nicked off to the pub. I think it goes without saying that acts of violence like this are cowardly and horriďŹ c. As is most of the media coverage. What is it now – do they have live to air terrorist action coverage teams to transmit ongoing carnage updates? It happened with the Twin Towers – there was live coverage blitzing most of the telly. The Bali bombing received similar treatment. The train bombing in Madrid made a newstory, but didn’t qualify for

continuous coverage. Perhaps it’s that wogs don’t rate. For whatever reason, one can’t help but feel that the media’s reaction to acts of terrorism is something akin to the way they treat the World Cup. Is this a civil disaster, or am I watching the World Wide Sport update? They report casualities with such a grim urgency it’s like we’re macabrely competitive about it. Is it a report or a score? The media coverage of urban terror is a bit like driving past a car accident. It’s human nature to be reviled, distressed yet transďŹ xed at the same time. Acts of terrorism invite inappropriate media induced gawking. It just seems entirely distasteful. The ticker continues under the program updating number of deaths, attempting to communicate that this is up to the minute information. I watched some coverage this morning and had to check that it wasn’t a CNNNN send up. They were interviewing some bloke from the Melbourne Train Union about the possibility of it happening here. Next, they

tried to get Peter Beattie on the line about some incident at Roma Street’s Police Headquarters. We crossed back to London where some poor chap with a bandage around his head was harangued about his grisly experience. Attacked ďŹ rst by terrorists, and then the media. It was such a beat up. An obvious media ploy to ďŹ ll the time slot and up the ratings. Next we cross to the airport where journalists are waiting for the ďŹ rst ight from London to touch down. Brilliant questions to jet lagged tourists like: ‘So when did you ďŹ nd out... how did you react?’ What are they supposed to say? ‘I was shocked but the lebbo guy up the back of the plane smoking blonde hash seemed pretty chuffed’. In this so called ‘War against Terror’ the media might as well enlist themselves as Al Qaeda operatives because their sensationalist coverage fosters a culture of fear more damaging than any bomb blast. How about a War against Media instead?

LiveMusic â– GIVE TREES A CHANCE

What would you do to save a tree? Would you be prepared to chain yourself to one? To set up house in the branches and refuse to come down? Or would you sing your way to leafy limbed liberty? In the eighties the name Brenda Liddiad was synonymous with musical activism. Some of her songs featured on her ironically titled album: ‘Lock On – Songs for Australia’s forests’ was written from the front lines of rain forest campaigns including Terania, Nightcap and the Franklin Protests. After twenty years in New Zealand she returns for a ying visit, with her long time partner Mark Laurant. Mark and Brenda have been touring New Zealand and overseas for many years, using music, poetry and humour to talk about ‘life, the universe, and everything’. They will be giving an intimate acoustic concert Saturday at Nimbin’s Media Centre (behind the Apothecary) starting early, 6.30pm.

This ensemble of some of Byron’s ďŹ nest musical talent comes together on Sunday at the Byron Community Centre by popular request after their highly successful CD launch. Singer/songwriter Colleen and classical guitarist Eddie Blatt are the heart of Ionnah whose music is both poetic and lyrical – calling forth a tenderness and compasssion for the human condition.

■YOU CAN’T STOP THE MUSIC

That’s right kids, it’s what the overdressed dudes from Village People said, and this Sunday is a big one at the Beach Hotel. With Swara Naga fronting the stage from 2pm, Method coming on board at 4pm and FDel and Dusty Fingers from Downsyde getting primal with the vinyl from 9pm.

July 12

LiveMusic worlds of rock, jazz, funk, hiphop and drum n bass together in an energetic live onslaught. They’re a knockout at the Hotel Great Northern on Sunday.

â– BABY LOVE

The thing about babies is that once Mother Nature has turned you on to them, you just can’t get enough. Just the thought of them has you gurgling and cooing like a dribbling drunk. It’s got so bad, I’m banned from their gigs. The Durga Babies’s singers Tim Tonkin and Michael Turner perform as a duo with guest Gabi Bliss at the Rails this Sunday.

â– SUPER FREAKING OUT

Freakylou are a Brisbased seven piece jazz reggae band with an extensive repertoire of original dance music, and selected versions. They combine these inuences together to create deep, dynamic sound that is quickly breaking new ground. The songs are cleverly structured, lyrically relevant, and also very melodic and catchy. Augmented with one of the heaviest rhythm sections in the land, and featuring soloists on sax, trumpet, trombone, lead guitar, keyboards, percussion and voice, the Freakylou sound is irresistibly danceable. They perform at the Beach Hotel on Saturday.

â– WHY GO TO A PUB WHEN YOU CAN BE PART OF A CLUB? After a month’s hiatus, the Byron Vista Social Club is back this Sunday from 7.30 pm in the newly renovated Ewingsdale Hall. The night of ďŹ ne Hi-Fi musical entertainment will feature New Zealand’s forefront alternative singer/songwriters Mark Laurent and Brenda Liddiard (see Give Trees a Chance Story). Also appearing are the fabulous Vista Sistas who’ve got the whole town talking about their soulful songs and heavenly harmonies. The crew are joined by Santana-style street guitarist extraordinaire Juan Salvador, and Lisa Yeates, yet another well-known and popular star from the protest ranks, turned Jazz singer. Also on the bill are Corey O’Connell (who wowed ‘em at the last Vista night), the Bahloo Ukulele ensemble, Madhu, Mook and Shanto and of course the usual and unusual surprise guests who regularly appear out of nowhere and thrill the rapt audiences.

â– CHORAL FIXATION

Just getting your attention. Now that I’ve got it are you interested in a wonderful enriching arvo of choral workshops, followed by a concert? Led by Judith Clingan A.M. a conductor, composer, music theatre writer and director, multi arts educator and full time multi tasker who usually resides in Canberra this promises to be an enriching day where you may ďŹ nd that hidden voice! For the last 15 years Judith has been working in Steiner schools and teacher training programs in Australia and Europe. Since 1997, when the ďŹ rst Wayfarers toured to Brisbane, hundreds of young people (and older people as well!) have had their lives enriched, and in some cases transformed, by Wayfarer tours around Australia and the world. Everyone not only discovers a whole new realm of music, but also makes lifelong friendships with people from different walks of life. Wayfarers Australia is a performing choir for students, teachers, parents and friends of Steiner schools. Forty to sixty singers aged 10 – 65, from all over eastern Australia, will come together for a 3-day rehearsal at Shearwater followed by workshops and performances at the Bangalow Catholic Hall. This could be the lip service you were after! Enquiries about the workshop to Judy on 0410617427 or 66841989.

Bexstar Nights In La La Land with Luke, Keri and Peter Raff

La La Land is open again, Monday to Saturday... and with a club licence! Cocos has cut back to four nights, Wednesday to Saturday... but only for winter! c-moog has knocked holes in the wall between the bar and the dancefloor... at last!

WEDNESDAY

FRIDAY

SUNDAY

The new-style La La Land takes the house style electro with Giv, head honcho of Toomba Records and a regular at Elsewhere and Gold Coast venues.

Byron DJs Rock Hardson and Willjay join forces at La La Land spinning disco to deep house. At c-moog it’s the fortnightly turn of Lucky9 with house and breaks.

Hip hop & breaks productions at the Beach Hotel, beats from Perth’s Fdel and tunes from Dusty Fingers from Downsyde. Live Brisbane tribal-trance act D-Ko launch their new single at the Northern. Teaming up with Melbourne’s K-Oscillate for a dual tour, the gig will be a high energy performance.

THURSDAY

SATURDAY

Capoeira at Cocos. The Zambiacongo crew is back for another Brazilian theme night of the acrobatic martial art, showgirls and Carnival elements.

Tone Broker takes to the decks in La La Land, playing latin-ish house and spicing it up with guests & gadgets. Adam Wade brings a west-coast crossed with Chicago-sound to Ben Abrahams’ Motion Theory night at Elsewhere.

Adding a welcome new dimension to Byron nightlife, La La Land finally opened as a club last Thursday. A packed-out party launched the venue in a suitably rock n roll style. Guests draped themselves over the earthcoloured sofas, sipped champagne under the glittering chandeliers and crowed the dancefloor for Melbourne house DJ John Course.

MONDAY Half price drinks at La La Land’s staff night, with house tunes from the warm up DJ at the opening party, Movin Marty.

ΑIt’s been a massive task to change La La Land from a restaurant into a club,’ explained Luke, a founding partner. ‘This was always the direction we wanted to go in, but it’s taken five years... four and a half years longer than we thought it would!’ Luke’s known partners Keri and Peter Raff for nearly 20 years, since meeting on a dancefloor in Melbourne. They now combine their club interests, talents and friendship. Luke and Keri opened La La Land five years ago, but Keri’s been splitting his time with La La Land in Melbourne and Baja in Kerra. Peter Raff had helped establish Baja and brings his Kiss FM credentials, OneLove connections and years of Melbourne club-running to join the party of partners. ‘We’re each good at different things,’ admitted Keri. ‘My thing is more behind the scenes, Luke’s into the legal-side and Peter does the entertainment... and this place is now definitely entertainment driven.’ ÎPeter’s plan is ‘lots of house music... rock-house’. He’s aiming for a mix of rock, electro and deep edged house, with possibly

some midweek funky breaks from DJs who happen to be in town. At this stage, the mix of Byron and Gold Coast residents include Rock Hardson and Willjay, Tone Broker, Movin Marty and Giv... and Peter predicts regular visits from Melbourne OneLove DJs. Asked to compare OneLove with Byron’s La La Land, Peter reckoned that although OneLove plays a similar style of house music, it’s quite a different space. ‘This is more bar-club than pure-club. It has a warm, comfy feel and a relaxed environment. OneLove is fifteen hundred people each Saturday. It’s quiet different, but a lot of the music crosses over. Î’He believes there’s an audience crossover too. ‘La La Land has always been popular with visitors from Melbourne. We’re bringing a touch of city to Byron... and people who’ve moved here in the last few years have probably been looking for a place to hang out, especially after midnight, that’s more mature. I think people here are into their music and they appreciate quality.’ ÎLuke adds that La La Land has enjoyed a strong Byron following for five years; he’d like to thank locals and he hopes that the next five will be even better. ‘Hopefully as an intimate lounge bar-club, we’ll attract a respectful crowd.’ The guests at last week’s opening may not appreciate the incredible amount of work involved in creating the new club in Byron, but they certainly seemed to relish the results.

ComedyArt COMEDY

■ SPLENDOUR IN THE LAUGH!!!

Splendour in the Grass is almost upon us, with some of the planet’s most talented and left of centre musicians making their way to our grassy slopes. With so much music happening all weekend it seems only fitting that some of JJJ’s most loved comic voices should take to the stage Splendour eve, Friday 22 July. The night features Akmal Saleh, hit of this year’s Melbourne Comedy Festival, a comedian who is very much making a name for himself as one of the strongest, funniest and most timely voices on the scene. Egyptian born Saleh has a unique perspective flavoured by his Arabic heritage and Aussie childhood. Akmal is one of the most sought after acts, touring with

international comedians such as Steven Wright, Ben Elton and the Amazing Johnathan. In 2002, Akmal co-wrote and starred in the Miramax feature film ‘You Can’t Stop the Murders’. Akmal continually displays an incredible ability to deal with hot topics in a nonoffensive way, as he touches on issues such as religion, terrorism and hysterical looks at modern day life in Australia. This has resulted in regular appearances on TV shows such as ‘Rove Live’, ‘The Footy Show’, ‘The Glass House’ and on Triple M, 2 Day FM and Triple J radio. Akmal is joined by JJJ’s Scott Dooley (most know him as the Dools) as MC and comedian Justin Hamilton (also JJJ announcer) as support. This fab show is for one night only. All tix are $15. Bookings and ticket sales direct to the Byron Bowling Club, 6685 6202.

■ SO YOU THINK YOU’RE FUNNY!

Ever considered yourself a bit of a card? Want to learn how to transform everyday experiences into humour and humour into routine?? Well, with your 6 week personality autopsy in a stand up comedy course you might just be able to give it a go! Bookings now through ACE 6684 3374.

■ THE ART OF NIMBIN

The Nimbin School of Arts (town hall) is in the middle of its first ‘Indigenous Art & Culture Exhibition’ which is open daily throughout the school holidays until Sunday. The theme of the show is ‘Living Culture’. In collaboration with the National Parks and Wildlife Service Annual Aboriginal Art Award the exhibition features an incredibly diverse

selection of works from all about the region; the major award winner is Nimbin artist Burri Jerome. Over 120 works are on exhibit, more than double last year’s award entries, and the exhibition has been attracting much attention with over 3,000 people viewing the works in the past 2 weeks. While in the Nimbin Valley visitors should also check out the Cabbage Tree Island indigenous exhibition at the Blue Knob Hall Art Space.

tor of this lesser known art form is its wondrous capacity for intimacy with the viewer. While the ‘do not touch’ dictum stands firm in most gallery situations, our viewers will be invited to don the white gloves and interact.

Sounds almost delicously kinky! Chapter 64 will be officially opened by Tim Mosely who teaches printmaking at Southern Cross University and is well known for his exquisite books and prints. From 6pm.

■ BACK TO BOOKS

This Friday Regional artists will be showcasing their work next to nationally acclaimed book artists such as Stephen Spurrier and Diane Longley at the Mullumbimby Piece Gallery. Artists’ books are reinventions of the traditionally bound book. A common denomina-

BEWITCHED TRAVELLERS & MAGICIANS Khyentse Norbu’s first feature, The Cup, was a rough diamond. This is more polished and ambitious, but with a similar theme. Dondup, a government official in a village in Bhutan, is a cool dude who can’t wait to migrate to America. A monk whom he meets on the road tells him the tale, more Zola than Siddhartha, of Tashi, a ne’er-do-well farmer’s son who is lost in the woods and comes upon the house of an old man and his beautiful young wife, Deki. The narrative flows from the real to the allegorical, with gentle humour, simmering tension, and a scene of breathless eroticism, before Tashi and Deki fall victim to their crippling desire. A film that celebrates the natural world through the magnificent landscape of Bhutan and the myriad sounds of water, wind, birdsong and all manner of bangings, clangings and rustlings. Unhurried, enriching and a welcome respite from super-heroes and the Hollywood blueprint. John Campbell

h AN AMAZING FILM ACHIEVEMENTv

(((((

The Ephron sisters came up with a good idea; to make a film about the revival of a classic sit-com from the sixties, Bewitched. In it, and unbeknown to the TV producers, the new Samantha would be a real witch who falls in love with the leading man. But the script is undeveloped and the result is disjointed. Nicole Kidman, inexplicably, plays Samantha as a pre-feminism dill and, as the actor who will be the new Darren, Will Ferrell monsters the movie with an awful performance as an unlikeable character. Michael Caine swans in and out for his bagful of easy money and Shirley Maclaine looks every bit the superannuated mother witch in off-therack coven-wear. There are some laughs along the way (three from memory) and effective inserts from the likes of Talking Heads, The Who and REM, but the spell does not work. And, in any case, Jeannie was always sexier and funnier. John Campbell

Batman Begins explores the origins of the myth. Christian Bale stars as millionaire orphan Bruce Wayne. Styling himself as “something elemental, something terrifying� Wayne uses his company’s cutting edge technology to fashion a fearsome masked vigilante. Fear is the film’s theme: confronting it, conquering it and using it. It is Batman’s greatest weapon. Memento director Christopher Nolan has smartly stocked his picture with excellent, established actors: Michael Caine as Wayne’s wise butler Alfred, Morgan Freeman as his business ally Lucius Fox and Gary Oldman as Batman’s weary friend Detective Gordon. Director Nolan takes the material seriously, nailing the emotion in the story of a damaged child who grows up to work out his demons through violent retribution. Bale plays Wayne as a wounded, determined human and Batman as a raging, relentless beast. This is easily the most engrossing and faithful screen adaptation of the Batman story. It is also the most intelligent and entertaining.

ARIES: Dogged, determined Mars in Aries says: Do it now! – but this week’s moody and edgy. Overriding someone else’s resistance could be the spark that starts a towering emotional inferno, leaving you wondering What the‌? So now you know, mind how you go.

CANCER: Adding extra energy (complaints, grumpy attitude, miffed feelings) to what’s wrong, off or not working makes you part of this week’s problems. To be part of the solution, find whatever’s good, no matter how small, and concentrate on expanding that.

LIBRA: Librans are undeniably easy going, but they’re also the sign of justice and a fair go. Communicator Mercury in the Lion’s den could have you speaking up and speaking out this week about something that just isn’t good enough. Some things even Librans can’t go along with.

CAPRICORN: If anyone’s mastered the art of not telling others what they’re really thinking, it’s you members of the Capricorn tribe. This often works to your advantage, but with this week’s misinformation and disinformation you’re better off letting others know what you’re up to.

TAURUS: This week other people’s views may start to grate like chalk on a blackboard. If you begin gritting your teeth and growling, it’s time to remind yourself that opinions are like assholes: everybody’s got one. There, you’re smiling already‌

LEO: The legend of King Midas is a cautionary tale about the perils of gold fever, a syndrome Leos are sometimes susceptible to. Something glittering prettily this week may not be the real deal - could turn out to be fool’s gold. And your Majesty so hates playing the fool‌

SCORPIO: Scorpios are adept at accumulating information and sitting on secrets till the moment’s ripe – an attribute you’ll put to practical use this week, making inside knowledge work in your favour. But if it’s at someone else’s expense there’ll be tears before bedtime‌

GEMINI: This week your most important role will probably be mediating disagreements. Keeping accord in the workplace and home zone by downsizing drama which at this point will only end up being wearing, expensive and decidedly unstylish.

VIRGO: If you can keep your nerves on an even keel, this has the makings of a magic Virgo week. Others are attuned to your feelings, amused by your humour and appreciative of your thoughtful attention to detail – when they’re not biting your head off‌

SAGITTARIUS: To quote Leonard Cohen, this week others are as stubborn as those garbage bags that just will not decay. Reasoning against their resistance could take forever, so if you want something done plant the suggestion in casual conversation and they’ll think it was their idea.

AQUARIUS: In the present climate of mind changing, drama queeny scenes, moods, brooding, power sulks and unreasonable behaviour, domestic is really your best bet. Cosy times at home base, during which teamwork will accomplish more than you ever expected.

Tosser Digby had been whiling away the afternoon potting feral chihuahuas with a blowpipe acquired from an Amazonian tribe better known for their vertical lovemaking technique, His aim was deadly accurate. From the club deck we watched as chihuahua after chihuahua fell silently beneath the poison darts in the base of their skulls. At appropriate intervals, as Digby whet his whistle, the club’s Afghan hound would pick up the limp bundles by the neck and deposit them in a pile for later immolation.

‘That’s for Cynthia, Megan, and Rose,’ said Digby, a grim, almost Eastwoodish, look in his hunter’s eye. These were the names he had given to the brush turkeys which frequented a wooded area in the clubhouse grounds. Unfortunately the chihuahua pack had hunted them down and Digby must have his revenge. Somewhere a stout matron, in Watego’s perhaps, was lamenting the loss of her little Fwuffy, turned vicious killer with bloodstained fangs, now merely a lump with veins quickly congealing from the poison’s effect.

After the entire chihuahua population of Myocum had been slaughtered, and after the second G&T had done its work, Digby put aside his blowpipe and relaxed.

‘There, there, old chap,’ consoled Abbotsleigh, patting Digby clumsily on the arm. ‘We’ll get in another batch of the blessed birds.’

Until sunset

‘Can’t do, old boy,’ said Digby. ‘While some anthropologists might bruit abroad outlines of the knotted vine scrotum technique, I am sworn to secrecy. You might care to undertake the sacred initiation which involves scariďŹ cation of the private parts with a thorny vine.’ Fotherblossom winced. ‘Knew there’d be a catch,’ he said. ‘Don’t know what the fuss is about,’ joined in Abbotsleigh. ‘All a chap needs is a judicious application of the lash and a pot of yoghurt by Bizzy Lizzy and his jollies are well and truly satiated.’ New readers might not be aware that Miss Lizzy is the club’s dominatrix-on-call. Grown men have cried for mercy beneath her hearty ministrations, and been given none. ‘If sirs have had enough of copulation for the morning, luncheon is served,’ intoned Sanders the butler, who had miraculously and silently appeared like an angel on oiled teon wings. Chef had whipped up agellate of moorhen in a sedge grass cream, accompanied by sweet potato dumplings and bruised peas. ‘To absent friends,’ said Digby, tossing back a Byron Bay Interminable Roadworks Ennui Shiraz Cabernet ‘To dead dogs,’ said Abbotsleigh, following suit.

‘Not the same,’ replied Digby. ‘They each have a different personality. Cynthia in particular was a fully formed character.’

The unbearable sadness of bananas

Mullumbimby

Vi c t o r i a C o s f o rd There is something about bananas which inspires within me pity – I feel sorry for them, and I’m not quite sure why. Is it their shape, their rich source of material for jokes or slapstick, their lack of glamour? Peaches, strawberries and melons possess distinct sex appeal but a banana even sounds funny.

Below is the recipe for my Banana & Almond Bread, a lovely way to ease into winter mornings with a mug of good coffee. I like to slice the bread quite thickly once it has cooled then freeze it in lots of two – once thawed, it toasts like a dream.

Yet there it is, a tropical fruit in its own protective sheath to peel away and expose a esh both creamy and subtly sweet, an excellent provider of Vitamin B6 and potassium, a portable source of immediate energy. Nothing sad about any of that. And while it may be one of my least favourite fruits, its resources are many. Bananas, like carrots and potatoes, are cheap all the year round: basic, earthy staples, ďŹ lling and faintly stodgy. Yet metamorphosed into other forms they have their chance to shine. Bananas folded into sweet batters ensure a beautiful moistness for days; this is probably best illustrated with Banana Bread. A popular breakfast item in cafes, the best I ever ate was made by Swell Cafe at Bronte Beach in Sydney where I sat facing a wild and wintry ocean, soothed and warmed by mouthfuls of eggy, light and luscious Banana Bread. My own recipe is gorgeous too for its inclusion of cinnamon and sultanas and a crunchy almost-streusel topping of almonds and brown sugar. Banana cakes could be the backbone of CWA bake-a-thons and community stalls, and because bananas couple so handsomely with many other fruits they are ideal for mufďŹ ns. Their ease of preparation further endears me to them: all you need to do is mash. I love mashing up a large ripe banana into a basic lemon cheesecake mixture, then adorning the baked result with a glaze of sliced kiwifruit. There used to be a pizzeria in south Sydney called The Tower of Pizza whose most popular type contained banana : amazingly it worked with the cheese, the green capsicum and the tomato sauce. Banana and bacon pair successfully. There is a fairly famous tart called a Banoffee Pie, a decadent creation consisting of a creamy condensed milk toffee-style ďŹ lling in a pastry crust and a topping of concentrically arranged banana slices and whipped cream; the fact that this is an American invention should come as no surprise.

BANANA & ALMOND BREAD

"URRINGBAR 3T -ULLUMBIMBY

Many of Jack’s relatives have beneďŹ ted from his racing tips and were watching closely for a nod or a wink. Which of these or the other six items on offer will get your nod and take home the prize of $1000? This will be decided on audience voting over four performances at the Byron Bay Community Centre Theatre on two Fridays and two Saturdays at 7.30pm July 15, 16, 22, 23. Tickets are $17 and will be available from the Byron Bay Community Centre, at the door or by phone 6685 5659.

â– KIDDY THEATRE

If you’re feeling a bit stuck as to what to do with the kidlets on the second week of the hols, then why not take them along to see the Firetrax pantomime ‘The Pied Piper’. There is plenty of opportunity for the children (and the grownups) to join in the action as the story unfolds. Then there is the inevitable ‘hug’ session at the end of the show to keep everyone happy. All performances are at the Bangalow A&I Hall at 2 pm. on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Tickets are available at the door or can be booked by phoning 6687 1998. Prices are $6 for children, adults $9 and a family of 4 or more at $6 per head.

Did you know that The New Zealand badminton team want to nickname themselves The Black Cocks? Or that Amanda Vanstone is an anagram of “venom and a satan? If you don’t then you clearly weren’t at InQuizition’s Trivia at The Rails last month. Don’t live in ignorance any longer, be there this Sunday when Mick Hidden and Frank Coorey present the next instalment of InQuzition Pub Trivia. It’s witty, deranged, entertaining and educational, come along and think while you drink. It all happens at 2pm this Sunday at the Rails. You can also catch Trivia with Frank at The Bangalow Pub every Thursday from 7.30PM

Government issues whooping cough alert NSW Health Director of Communicable Diseases Dr Jeremy McAnulty has today issued a health alert warning people, especially parents, to be on the look out for the symptoms of whooping cough following a disturbing rise in cases across NSW from 317 cases in April to 373 cases in May, with almost 1800 cases reported this year so far. Dr McAnulty said whooping cough can be unpleasant for people of any age, but it can prove to be very serious in babies, even fatal. ‘Young babies will not have been fully vaccinated and so remain vulnerable to whooping cough,’ said Dr McAnulty. ‘If you have a baby in your family, make sure you don’t let

anyone with a coughing illness visit the child. The best way to protect babies is to keep them away from anyone with a cough,’ he said. A vaccine is commercially available for adults from GPs. People who have contact with small children, such as parents or grandparents, or people working with small children including health care and child care workers should receive this vaccine. Dr McAnulty said whooping cough is easily spread to other people by droplets from coughing or sneezing or by direct contact with an infected person’s nose or mouth. Someone with whooping cough will be able to spread it to other people for up to three weeks after onset (unless they are treated). So it is important that people are treated early to stop the spread of the disease.

‘Whooping cough usually begins just like an ordinary cold with a runny nose, tiredness and sometimes a mild fever,’ said Dr McAnulty. ‘Coughing bouts then develop with attacks followed by a big deep gasp that sometimes produces a whooping sound. Vomiting may follow these bouts of coughing. ‘Whooping cough can be very serious in babies and small children who might go blue or even stop breathing during a coughing attack. Often children need to be treated in hospital,’ Dr McAnulty said. The Health Department recommends that all children be given a triple vaccine to protect against diphtheria, tetanus and whooping cough.

The vaccine should be given at 2 months, 4 months, 6 months and 4 years of age. Teenagers should also receive an adolescent formulation vaccine (‘booster’) at high school. As part of a comprehensive vaccination program across of all high schools, NSW Health immunised more than 330,000 students between January 2004 and June 2005 against diphtheria, tetanus and whooping cough. See your doctor if you or your child have a coughing illness that lasts more than a few days. A fact sheet on whooping cough can be found at the NSW Health website at www. health.nsw.gov.au.

Delivery of waste bins begins Byron residents will be receiving new waste and recycling wheelie bins over the coming weeks. Byron Shire Council General Manager Ms Pam Westing said the new red lidded waste bin and yellow top recycling bin are part of a new collection system to begin the ďŹ rst week of August. ‘Crews will be delivering around 25,000 bins along with information packs to help residents familiarise themselves with the new service,’ said Ms Westing. ‘The information pack includes a recycling guide and a calendar that shows residents their collection week for the fortnightly recycling service.’ Any enquiries relating to the new service should be referred to the Customer Service Line on 6687 0455.

Sports Roundup with Alex McAuley Rams toss top of the table Ballina After a two week lay off due to rain and representative ďŹ xtures, the Byron Bay Rams played host to competition leaders Ballina. The reserves put on an inconsistent performance allowing Ballina too many chances to capitalise on mistakes, ďŹ nishing up the wrong end of a 4-0 scoreline. The premier division was a different story, however, with the Rams playing all over the opposition to win the game comfortably. The first half saw the Rams continually in attack with Tom Ruhl volleying in a corner for a ďŹ rst half lead of 1-0, which could have been 2-0 had they not missed

a penalty late in the period. In the second half, Paul Bird led the Rams in their continual attack on the former impregnable Ballina defence, causing the leaders some major concerns. Bird was rewarded with the second goal from his curling corner which eluded the classy Ballina goalkeeper. The third and final goal from Patrick L’Orange was the result of excellent teamwork with the Rams playing six passes from the back to the front before Patrick ran through the defence and slotted home the goal. The win was highlighted by solid defence from the

Rams, great keeping from Kai Connell who made tow telling saves early in the game, complete dominance in the midďŹ eld and clinical ďŹ nishing from the strikers. The result is even more impressive when you consider that the Rams still have live wire Adam Bostock, who has just returned from his stint in Scotland, and Bruce Morhaus who were unavailable for the game to come back into the line up. Next week the Rams have a double header travelling to Maclean on Saturday and then Casino on Tuesday.

performed well with the 15s finishing fifth after several very narrow losses, the 13s eighth in their first ever state championships and the 14s (pictured) winning their division after some outstanding play from the girls. For such a small association to continue to produce such a high standard of players is a testament to the quality of coaching at both club and representative level; all players and coaches are to be congratulated.

Giants too strong for Murwillumbah Mullumbimby Giants have consolidated their place in the top ďŹ ve after an excellent win over top of the table Murwillumbah on Saturday night. Once again, Paul Latta was a star performer scoring three tries and four goals for a total of 20 points out of the 32 scored by the team. He combined brilliantly with Mullum’s other centre, recently returned Glen Godbee, who was another stand out for the side scoring two tries in his ďŹ rst game in the

top ight for the season. Despite spending years as rivals with Godbee playing for Mullumbimby and Latta for Brothers, the partnership looks like it will cause all sorts of problems for their opposition for the remainder of the season. With both players showing outstanding pace, they were almost impossible for Murwillumbah to contain. In what has been described by Dave Latta as the fastest game so far this season, the Giants had the advantage

over Murwillumbah in the forwards who paved the way for the speedsters in the backs to break through. Mullum came back from a 12-10 deďŹ cit at half time to clinch the victory with both sides showing good completion rates and making few mistakes for an exciting game. Final score Mullumbimby 32 d Murwillumbah 24, reserves Murwillumbah 20 d Mullumbimby 16, U18s Murwillumbah 21 d Mullumbimby 6. Next week the Giants have a bye.

On Saturday, Brunswick Valley Soccer Club third grade took on the undefeated Ballina at Pine Avenue. The home team started strongly, dominating possession for the ďŹ rst ten minutes. There were a lot of early shots coming from some good build up work and it was only a matter of time before the Valleys slotted their ďŹ rst through Ben Wills who took a beautiful cross on the head for his second goal of the season. The boys kept up the pressure and again the Valleys found the back of the net with an attack down the left ank and another great header from Ben Wills. The Valleys remained solid for the remainder of the ďŹ rst half as Ballina had no answers to their enthusiasm. The beginning of the second half saw more great soccer from the home team and ďŹ nally a well deserved third goal came from yet another well placed cross which Shane Ander ton put

away with a great header. Best for the Valley were Matt Hughes at the back and Tubby Taylor in the middle. With a 3-0 win against the team at the top of the table, things are looking good for the Valleys for the rest of the season. Fourth grade took on Byron Bay at home and started with a cracking breakaway goal to Jason Lowenthal. The boys maintained the pressure on the oppostion and received a penalty for their efforts that Mark Stephens made short work of and the Valleys looked good at 2-0. Byron got their heads down and the Valleys kept up the dominance which saw a good buildup for Lowenthal to slot in his second of the match. The Valleys created a lot of opportunities in the second half but just couldn’t ďŹ nd the back of the net. They conceded a late goal but it was a good win against a younger Byron side.

Dirt Slaves get a taste of wheel life Rusty Gromfest has celebrated ten years of high-class junior surfing at Lennox Head main beach and this year was no exception with four days of outstanding surfing from all age groups. Byron Bay boys dominated with outstanding results from Ellis Ericson (pictured), Garrett Parkes and Sol Bailey. Ellis Ericson took out the 16 boys division and was delighted with his win.

‘Gromfest is the most prestigious contest for young surfers in the world. It has taken me five years to win this title and I am so happy. This is a stepping stone to the pro tour and it has been an incredible ride,’ said Ericson. The 14 boys competition was magic, as Byron Bay’s Garrett Parkes earned cheers and applause from the crowd for his stylish turns and impeccable timing. Proving

to be a consummate profession, Parkes competed in the final with ‘flu, testing his strength to the limit and winning in fine form. Sol Bailey at only ten years old managed an extremely creditable fifth in the 12 boys age group. Catching his best wave just after the siren, he was extremely unlucky not to make the final, but with another two years in this age group, he has a very bright future in the event.

Best state team yet for Surfing FNC Surfing Far North Coast has selected its team to compete at the state titles in Coffs Harbour later this year. The team has been selected on overal point score from the Last Sunday four Byron Bay lads headed up to Ipswich to compete in the Downhill South East Queens- best two out of three rounds land Sunshine Series round four in a field of over one hundred riders in all categories. Having had the in the regional titles held previous round at Toowoomba postponed due to rain, they were looking forward to a fun day out on recently. The team is as folthe short but flowing track.
