Elliot holds Richmond Michael McDonald

While the federal election outcome waits on horse trading between the major parties and independents, there was no surprise in Richmond. Labor’s Justine Elliot hung on to her seat, albeit with a swing against her. Despite a late start and competition from a Liberals candidate, the Nationals’ Alan Hunter proved to be the main contender to Elliot, polling 21.7 per cent of the primary vote. On two party preferences with 79 per cent of the vote counted Elliot had 38,861 votes or 56.91 per cent to Nationals candidate Alan Hunter’s 29,426 votes.

Primary vote result On the primary vote Elliot picked up 27,287 votes or 39 per cent, and Hunter 15,053. Liberals Joan van Lieshout came next on 12,836, followed by Greens Joe Ebono 11,008. Among the independents Tweed community activist Julie Boyd fared best with 807 votes, followed by Matthew Hartley 675, Stephen Hegedus 664, Nic Faulkner 466 and then Dem-

ocrats David Robinson 406. Van Lieshout’s reputation as a Tweed councillor counted for little in Byron Shire, most of the votes going to Elliot, Ebono and Hunter. Of the 18 Byron booths, Elliot took ten and Ebono eight. Elliot’s support was mostly in the towns and Ebono in the hinterland. Revenge on the local Greens failed to manifest in the hills, with Ebono taking 46 per cent of the vote at Main Arm Upper, 50 at Goonengerry and 58 at Wilsons Creek. Ebono even edged out Elliot in Mullumbimby, 33 per cent to 31. Independent candidate Julie Boyd issued a final statement after the event: ‘Can we please stop the bickering now, and work to clean this mess up, starting with shared leadership. ‘Julia Gillard can have Monday, Wednesdays and Fridays, Tony Abbott can have Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays and Bob Brown can have Sundays to clean up the mess they create and set the agenda for the next week!’ See full results at http://vtr.aec. gov.au

Electricity network receives $8.8 million boost Country Energy says it has begun work on an $8.8 million project to build a new zone substation and upgrade powerlines near Byron Bay. The upgrade is part of a $70 million investment of the Lismore to Mullumbimby electricity networks. It was approved by the NSW Department of Planning in 2009, following the completion of environmental, social and heritage studies. ‘The investment project will secure the power supply for the fastest growing region well into the future,’ Far North Coast regional general manager Richard Wake said. ‘The 18-month project includes construction of a new zone substation north-west of Suffolk Park

and upgrading the transmission network from 66,000 volts to 132,000 volts to increase power supply capacity and reliability,’ Mr Wake said. Country Energy’s civil contractors have begun preparatory works, including constructing a minor access road on private property at the end of Yagers Lane in Skinners Shoot. Construction of the new zone substation is due to begin later this year. ‘The network upgrade will secure the area’s future energy needs for at least the next 20 to 25 years, based on forecast growth figures,’ Mr Wake said.

Students at the Pocket School have been getting a taste for strawberries and an initiative by the New Brighton Farmer’s Market (NBFM), will see them chomping on all manner of luscious fruits and vegetables in the coming months. The School Gardens Project which has been running all of this year is a program providing support for local schools to develop their own vegetable gardens and orchards.

farmer Ian Cameron have been visiting the school to talk to the young growers about looking after their garden and last week delivered a cheque for $600 to put toward the improvement of the facility. Teacher Sonia Woods says the School Gardens Project is a great program for the kids and the whole school attends the garden. ‘Farmer Ian has been providing “seeds” of wisdom as well as seeds and seedlings to grow,’ says Sonia. ‘He has been a wonderful support. He reck-

ons our garden looks better than his. Judy has also been giving classes educational talks.’ Ms Woods says the donation from the Brunswick Valley Farmers Market Association will help establish an irrigation system and provide ongoing support on the plot. The children at the school also get the opportunity to cook with their produce, menus includes spinach and cheese rolls, Thai chicken and coriander rissoles and strawberry smoothies.

new category of Photographic and Digital Art. The Expo is a multi-media and participatory event. This year the school has organized free creative workshops and an Arts, Craft and Book Fair for Sunday. There are Community Canvasses to be completed by visitors to the show – previous community canvasses have been donated to the Mullumbimby Hospital. The show will open on Friday with school tours and the official launch and awards ceremony will be held at 7pm. Throughout the weekend there will be an artists’ delight of workshops, demonstrations and live entertainment as well as an historical display by Frank Mills. Ms Fraser says that it is important to support local artists and support a community project. ‘Trust your urge to buy that artwork you like,’ she says. ‘It is clear that this event is by community, for community. Just as we celebrate creativity, we also celebrate the joy of our connectedness, the harmony in co-operation that makes our community feel flowing and caring.’ For more information about the Expo, you can visit their website: www.osartexpo.com.

Fundraisers sought for Byron Library Professional fundraisers are invited to show expression of interest for investment in Byron Bay’s new library. One million in funding for the construction is needed, say council. Byron Shire Council contracts manager Trish Kirkland said the project has already been approved for Deductible Gift Recipient Status. ‘With the assistance of professional fundraisers and community support, we are hoping the project will be fully funded by the end of the year and construction can commence.’ The total cost is approximately $6 million, and will be funded from Council loans, reserves, a $200,000 State Li-

brary Development Grant and fundraising. Consultants have also been engaged to prepare the final construction contract documentation which is expected to take approximately eight weeks to complete. The construction certificate for the library is currently being finalised. Located on the corner of Lawson and Middleton Streets, the long awaited library is aimed at meeting multiple community needs. Expression of interest will close on 2 September 2010. Further information can be found on Council’s website at www.byron.nsw.gov.au/ expressions-of-interest/

Low rainfall rice crop produced in Casino Hans Lovejoy

Food security for the Northern Rivers has been given a boost after a Casino biodynamic grain grower successfully grew and milled 300 tonnes of rice. Low food miles are only part of the story, says Farmer Brett Slater. ‘The rice is grown without any irrigation, as opposed to current southern Australian rice crops.’ According to the CSIRO, these crops require around 1550 litres of water to produce just 1kg of rice. ‘The only water used on this crop is rainfall,’ Mr Slater said. This is the first time a staple grain has been biodynamically grown and milled commercially in the Northern Rivers. Mr Slater said he decided to grow rain-fed rice because of the region’s high rainfall and Ryan Hamilton from Santos and biodynamic rice grower Brett Slater.

For 75 years, the Brunswick Surf Lifesaving Club has been serving the community of Brunswick Heads. To celebrate, the club is inviting all members – past and present – to festivities that will be held over the Labour Day weekend October 1 to 3. The club will host an open house on the Sunday.

Bruns history Brunswick Heads is a long established fishing village and came into existence in the 1850’s when cedar cutters began felling timber, using the beach and entrance to load their logs. The Brunswick river mouth bar is notorious for upending large and small boats, and the

surf beach has not only a double bar system dominated by rips, but a prominent rip that runs out against the southern training wall, in addition to strong tidal currents and breaking waves between the training walls. To safeguard the bathers and fishermen, the Surf Club was formed in 1935. The Brunswick SLSC is responsible for patrolling the area from the Belongil Creek mouth in the south to the surf beaches of New Brighton and South Golden Beach to the north. The club is also on call year round to assist members of the public who may get into strife either in the ocean or the extensive river system of the Brunswick Valley.

Club president, Craig Reid has held the office for eight years and knows first hand how much hard work it takes to keep a surf club running. ‘It’s going to be a great weekend, with lots of fun activities. All the past member can catch up with each other and share their stories with the younger members. With events scheduled over the three days there will be plenty of time for everyone to enjoy each other’s company.’

Club Secretary Kris Southwell has been a member of Brunswick SLSC since 1982 and is thrilled to be part of the historical event. ‘There is a lot of history here at Brunswick, so many people have dedicated themselves to this club over the years.’ There will be a meet and greet on the Friday evening, dinner and presentation on Saturday (RSVP by 1/9) and a BBQ brunch at the club on Sunday.

One single point separated Lennox Head pizzeria Quattro from the chance to represent Australia in Las Vegas. For the third year in a row, the restaurant won the regional heat of National Foods’ Best of the Best Pizza competition and went through to the State finals, held in Sydney as part of the recent Good Food and Wine Show. For the past three years the Lennox wood-fired restaurant has won a category. Pizzaiolo and part-owner Paul Isaac told The Echo that this year he had

‘We had Italian sausage, pesto, garlic, red onion, rocket and fetta in the Mystery Box’, he said, ‘and you had to use at least four ingredients. You had half an hour to decide what to do and to do a bit of prep. Then you cooked it in front of a live audience and the judges.’ Technique, use and harmony of ingredients and presentation were all parts of the “quite intricate judging system”, Paul said. Quattro restaurant has been running for slightly less than three years, so the achievement is considerable. Even more so

only learnt how to make pizzas when he and his partner joined forces with Jo and Alessandro Matricardi to open the restaurant. ‘I had to learn from scratch’, Paul said, ‘I just started on the salad section! Everything’s done by hand – it’s part of the traditional way we do it and part of the theatre of the restaurant.’ He said that as far as possible they use local produce. ‘As much as possible we support local businesses and provedores. It’s definitely important to us, especially in a small town.’

Improving mobile phone coverage in Ocean Shores Optus 3G mobile Network Optus is committed to investing in infrastructure that ensures residents and businesses in the Byron Shire can access the latest and most effective communications services in Australia. We are planning to provide new Third Generation (3G) mobile services to Ocean Shores as part of a national project to provide better service telecommunications services to Australia.

Experienced a call drop out or can’t get wireless internet connections in your home or business?

Sometimes, this can also happen because existing mobile facilities in the area are at full capacity or located at a distance too far away to provide a quality 3G service.

Byron Shire Council will advertise the Optus development application and during this period residents will have the opportunity to provide submissions to council regarding the proposal.

Rangers reward dog owners ‘doing the right thing’

Cultural learning continues at St Finbarr’s

Dog owners ‘doing the right thing’ in South Golden Beach, New Brighton and Ocean Shores will go into the draw to win a $100 dinner voucher at Reflections Restaurant at the Ocean Shores Country Club. The reward program is a new Byron Shire Council initiative to promote positive dog ownership and care. Council ranger Scott Brodie said staff had met recently with South Golden Beach community members to discuss a number of dog concerns from the area. ‘We have seen a noticeable increase in reports on dogs roaming the streets, being walked off leashes, barking and attacks,’ Mr Brodie said.  â€˜In an effort to reward good behaviour and responsible pet ownership, rangers will be issuing raffle tickets to dog owners they see doing the right thing. This includes walking a dog on the leash and picking up faeces. â€˜Responsible pet ownership

The strong tradition of celebrating NAIDOC at St Finbarr’s continued during a day filled with wonderful cultural learning experiences for the students and teachers. Year One student Ties Van Kempen said ‘It was the best day of the year because of all the activities as well as the fact I could dress in red, black and yellow and I didn’t have to go to class.’ After a Welcome to Country from Djurun Brown, a guest from the Bundjalung community, the children gathered into mixed age family groups and worked their way through a wide range of exciting activities which included story telling, music, examining cultural artefacts, learning Bundjalung language and watching a documentary film. The school would like to thank the Indigenous community for continuing to build strong links with the children and staff of St Finbarr’s and share their rich culture so generously.

also means keeping your dog in a secure yard and ensuring your dog is friendly and comfortable with people.’ The winning ticket will be drawn at the end of September.  Council rangers will also be undertaking additional patrols in the areas, letter box dropping information and issuing enforcement notices. Dog enforcement fines range from $165 for an unregistered dog, $220 a dog off leash, $330 for a dog in a prohibited area and $550 for a dog attack. Dog owners are also encouraged to read the signs before going onto public beaches. There are five beach zones in Byron Shire where dogs are allowed to be exercised off the leash. Even within these zones it is important to remain in control of your dog, carry a lead and ensure it does not harass other people, other pets or wander off outside the designated areas into bird breeding habitats.

‘Buy Local’ Business Directory for Bruns

Raising a-hairness for Science Week

As part of their ‘Buy Local’ strategy, the Brunswick Heads Chamber of Commerce is now compiling their 2010/1011 Business Card Directory. All retail, professional, trade and home-based businesses are invited to support the initiative to promote their business to locals and improve the town’s economic sustainability. Peter Wootton, president of the Brunswick Heads Chamber of Commerce, said ‘Small businesses rely heavily on local patronage to survive the leaner winter months. Keeping the money circulating in the area creates a “multiplier

effect”. This is a proactive and empowering way to survive difficult times and improve the economic health of a community’. The DL sized directory aims to include all businesses in town and has an entry fee of $45 for those based in Brunswick Heads. Businesses beyond Brunswick Heads are also invited to participate for $55. For more, contact Michael Glanz on 6685 1003 or drop your card into the Brunswick Heads Visitors Centre in Park St before the deadline of 4pm on Friday August 27.

most a relief that on Saturday night there wasn’t really a victory to claim. And if the last days of the campaign were to be taken as a sample of what each side was offering, it was probably just as well. Tony Abbott had never really presented himself as a prime minister: he had always been the opposition leader, attacking the government from all directions but offering noth-

strategists of Sussex Street, which amounted to the same thing. Up to this point I had retained a shred of optimism; I had relied on the hope that Labor’s expertise in holding on to its marginals against the odds might just push the government over the line. It now seemed improbable; any remaining swinging voters would surely have succumbed

It was all about them, not about him. And after this 36 hour, or 42 hour, or five week sleepless marathon he was okay, as opposition leader this was the role he had chosen right from the start and at least he could claim consistency. But incredibly Gillard spent the last 24 hours chasing him down the same road of negativity. She sounded not just desperate and panic stricken, but a trifle unhinged. It was not about her, it was all about Abbott, she raved. He was the great destroyer, the enemy of all that was good and decent. Not only that, he would bring back WorkChoices‌. Well hang on a minute. Gillard was the incumbent, the Prime Minister. It was her job to be positive about her government; she should have been saying Vote For Me, not Vote Against Him. This was elementary, politics 101. Either she had acquired a political death wish or she was still listening to the

to Gillard’s own despair. It became a matter of what ifs. What if Gillard had resisted the pressure to make a cynical promise to build the Parramatta to Epping railway, thus aligning and identifying herself with the loathed and doomed regime in Macquarie Street? What if she had rejected the advice to go early, and had waited until October to establish herself in the job and take full advantage of the high moral ground of incumbency? What if she had not accepted the Right’s blandishments, stayed loyal to Kevin Rudd and been content to wait until after the election when, win, lose or draw, she could have had the leadership without the stigma of treachery? What if she had joined Rudd to insist that climate change was indeed the great challenge and the Emissions Trading Scheme should stay front and centre in the government’s platform? And, the biggest what if of all: what if the government

had defied the cowardice of the numbers men and gone to a double dissolution on the issue of climate change back in February – just six months ago? I spent much of the day in such pointless contemplation, and I wondered if Gillard had the same thoughts as she made her way back to Altona to join the sullen and disgruntled voters, queuing to vote in an election they would rather not have had, to contemplate a choice they did not want to make. There is still a possibility that Gillard could survive in a minority government; she will get the support of the green Adam Brandt in Melbourne, and can hope for Andrew Wilkie in Dennison if he gets over the line. But she will still need at least one of the three resident rural independents, Bob Katter, Tony Windsor and Rob Oakeshott. All three are former Nationals but, as South Australian premier Mike Rann has pointed out, they left the Nats for a reason; they may be conservatives but they are not part of the pack. And all three have expressed strong support for Labor’s national broadband plan, which could still be the game breaker. But this is all speculation and fantasy: it would be at least another week before the fat lady was even ready to clear her throat. On the morning after the night before, only one thing is certain: Labor has lost the confidence of most Australians in the space of less than a year, and the architects of the policy failures which had brought this about through their cynicism, cowardice and self-importance should be hung by their testicles and lashed savagely with bulls’ pizzles.

Letters

Brunswick Heads rewritten by govt Last Friday the NSW Land and Property Management Authority (the old Lands Department) released plans to build a Gold Coast style tourist resort complete with a pool and six new amenity blocks along the entire length of The Terrace Reserve in Brunswick Heads. It will be fenced and gated to stop all resident access to the parkland, foreshore and river and the walking bridge access is also claimed by the resort. I’ve read the entire 50 pages of the plan and it’s a total whitewash full of errors, misinformation, downright lies and a blatant attempt to rewrite the history of Brunswick Heads for their own commercial gain. This review and subsequent plan was instigated a few years back due to the hundreds of complaints by residents about the continual and unauthorised expansion of the holiday park onto public parkland and into a residential street, the blocking of river access to residents, environmental damage, affordable housing, and the illegal road and river encroachments of over half the campsites. In

short this plan rectifies none of these issues and instead lists page after page of excuses as to why they won’t obey the very strict local, State and Crown Land regulations. What they will do however is build an upmarket tourist resort, and if you pay them $1500 a week for one of their cabins, you can get to use the land you used to use daily on your walk to the beach. Of most concern is the 30 per cent expansion of the current tourist park and the theft of the last remaining piece of this reserve from the people of Brunswick. To rub salt into the wound, it is planned to develop this parkland into 60 new, year round campsites. This new development will be in a residential street fronting 20 homes and affecting everybody who lives within a few blocks. The residents of this street will be forced to endure the constant noise and antics of up to 150 mainly young weekend revellers crammed into a tent area not much bigger than a football field. The proposed resort plan claims they have the right to

do so under existing use rights. They claim the residential half of the reserve has always been used for camping. My family has lived opposite The Terrace Reserve for five generations and I can assure you these claims are a total fabrication of the truth and an attempt to rewrite the history books. Up until a few years ago the parkland at the residential end of the reserve was only used as tent overflow for around four weeks of the year during the peak Christmas break and two weeks over Easter. Obviously the fact that the park was in a residential street made it totally inappropriate as a dedicated camping area. During this Christmas and Easter peak, appreciative camping families, who were mainly ‘locals’ from Lismore, Casino and even just up the road from Mullumbimby, would be permitted to ‘tent’ camp on the Reserve. These families stayed in those big old canvas tents that were usually about the size of a garage so there were probably about 25 tents scattered around the park under the trees. It was

this type of camping that was epitomised in the classic ABC radio series of the 80s, Brunswick Heads Revisited. This is a far cry from the weekend revellers now forced on residents since North Coast Holiday Parks took over management three years ago and invaded this park on a year round basis. The campers now using this parkland are predominantly large groups of young people (often up to packs of 30) who have come to Brunswick to party for the weekend. I am really keen to hear from anybody who will verify this real history of this parkland, especially anyone who has photos showing the overflow camping area and its natural charm before North Coast Holiday Parks cut down half the trees. Send your recollections and photos to slthomeara@ bigpond.com. While you’re at it, you have till September 10 to voice your opposition to this private resort by emailing the LPMA at CLWR.NorthCoast@ lpma.nsw.gov.au.

West Byron plans

best outcome for the area will take several years and there will be many opportunities for the community to share their views. We encourage your participation.

No large organisations in the world, apart from governments, use an adversarial decision-making system and there’s a good reason for that. It’s an incredibly substandard way to make decisions. In an adversarial system various qualities we’d like to see when making our national decisions are not possible. Cooperative discussion, creativity, innovation etc are far too easy to attack so we get none of that. Consequently, and invariably, nobody is happy with any of the decisions that are made and, at every election, the population is divided straight down the middle. Who benefits from that? Not us… again.

Before we can do anything about fixing our political system we have to admit that it’s broken. Politicians and their parties won’t, they don’t know any other way. Political commentators won’t, the adversarial makes good copy and it’s so easy to provoke. The top end of town won’t, the adversarial system is far too easy for them to manipulate. This bullshit can’t possibly be the best we can expect.

The Byron Bay West Landowners Association would like to thank all local community groups who have so far provided their views on the future of West Byron. We would like to ask individual residents to ensure their views are known by completing the initial survey at www. westbyronproject.com.au.

Community Centre revealed an appalling lack of understanding/commitment to human rights and international law. On June 1, 2010, Foreign Minister Stephen Smith told the House of representatives that Australia supported the ‘easing’ of the blockade of Gaza. He did not call for the siege to be broken despite the fact that Gaza is the world’s biggest outdoor prison incarcerating 1.5 million people in appalling conditions. The UN has recently issued a dire warning about the shocking lack of clean water and sewage treatment and the impossibility of rebuilding schools, hospitals and houses after the Israeli blitzkrieg of Operation Cast Lead. Only Independent Nic Faulkner stated in response to my question that he would support breaking the siege. None of the other candidates gave that commitment.

So who needs big festivals? Q Tom

Hain’s attack (Letters, August 17) on the NIMBYs who deferred the Splendour festival sounds quite cynical to me. He suggests those objecting could just move somewhere sleepy and peaceful (sic!) and ‘merge with the paddock’. That’s exactly where I’m living, and where the Splendour entrepreneurs plan to plonk down their mega festival site and spoil the rural amenity of Yelgun and adjacent Crabbes Creek valley for good. The occasional doof party in the countryside proves how far the sound from those drum machines can travel. Now multiply the decibels and you will get an idea about the effect of Splendour’s hyper-amplified rock music. The entire population of

North Ocean Shores will be affected by ‘several festivals a year’. Do those NIMBYs really deserve Tom’s disdain? I believe the Belongil residents are quite happy that Splendour left them alone now. All this waffle about the loss of jobs or business for locals sounds like the usual spin of politicians to me. Yelgun is 30 km from Byron. The big buck will be made by the operators on site, the real locals and the environment pay the price. The solution is so easy. Leave Splendour where it is, on a well established festival site.

Byron Bay a ‘festival town’? The arguments against events the size of Splendour which totally disrupt the lives of the majority of us not making the 25 (or was it 30 million?) dollars, apparently lost over the weekend, are well known. And yet a small minority with vested interests continue to ignore the fact that a democratically elected council made a popular decision.

Returning home to The Cage I’ve been away for a few months, visiting aged parents overseas, and I expected to see a few welcoming fairies when I arrived back in Mullumbimby – instead I was greeted by The Cage. So for all of those that thought that Woolworths was going to be a benign influence on our town or, indeed, a benevolent benefactor, I hope that they finally get it. If you want a little peephole into the future for our town or indeed Australia, you only have to look at the UK. Two out of three people are overweight and one in ten is obese and the food is truly awful. The free (and that means healthy and fresh) marketplace

for food has died because the big boys have moved in and rung the death knell with one supermarket taking the place of an infinite variety of food/produce stores in most towns and villages and with it the death of service and community. We went to a pretty place called Woodford in Suffolk that has a charming pedestrian mall, full of bow-fronted shop windows and you can see that it used to have a butcher, baker, game and poultry shop, fish shop etc by the faded signs above the doorways. Not any more. In a street of about 70 shops there was only one food shop, Tesco’s (a supermarket), but it now has five banks, six

charity shops, four discount stores, one Centrelink, various tatty clothes shops and the rest were boarded up. This was repeated over and over again wherever we went in the UK. I went in hope to the last remaining butcher, close to my parents, in the village of Ramsey, Essex, for some real meat to cook up some stuff for them. Thirty minutes later, after the poor bloke was almost in tears, I was out of there – no osso bucco tonight. He told me that he just couldn’t sell stuff that you had to cook any more, he barely sold a roast and that people just wanted instant – like you got in the supermarket. Quick fry and rissoles

with all that disgusting sauce all over it (his words) – not a Jamie Oliver in sight. It beggars belief that a private entity, purely for economic gain, can disrupt a whole town with this appalling cage. I hope all those Woolies cheerleaders finally get it. Woolworths is a selfish, voracious corporate giant with no conscience – they don’t give a toss about you or your town. In silent protest follow Mandy’s advice and tie your undies to the cage. If you see some longjohns, they belong to my father in memory of the casserole he was going to have.

Contrary to the implied associations in your article, there are no grounds to claim that Better Place, (the company in which Mr Keneally has an interest) has received any favourable treatment from Ms McAllister, or her former Department. No contracts or financial benefits have been awarded to this company by the Department while contracts have been signed with their competitors. Furthermore, Ms McAllister was on maternity leave for the period in which the Electric Vehicles Taskforce conducted the bulk of its deliberations,

and only recently resumed a role in the Taskforce on her return to work. Ms McAllister has no financial or commercial interests with any electric vehicle company, and has impartially fulfilled her duties as a public servant charged with developing policy to tackle climate change. All of the above may readily be found by simple enquiry; indeed many of these details were printed in the original SMH article, but omitted by The Echo. Ms McAllister is our daughter, and a daughter of the north coast community. Argu-

ably her ten year track record working to protect the environment and climate change in her professional and personal life is a product of her experiences growing up on the north coast. Is it too much to ask that basic journalistic courtesies in relation to fact checking and balanced reporting could be extended in her case?

ai Drummond Morcom would have been 16 last month and he was making his mark in this world. He was a caring, unselfish people person with a great sense of humour who enjoyed life and projected a positive light around him. Almost a year ago today Australia was shocked, saddened and appalled at his death at Mullumbimby High after a schoolyard brawl. As a result Jai received bruising, bumps, abrasions and a massive brain hemorrhage. It was alleged he was pushed or thrown into a brick wall then attacked on the ground. Jai’s external injuries and brain hemorrhage appear to back reports of what happened that day. It’s heartwrenching to confront Jai’s medical diagnosis and the sickening knowledge he would have suffered intense pain at some stage. A year later no-one has been made accountable and there is no satisfactory explanation as to why not. A recent press release from detective in charge Terry Frost said, ‘We have 100 witness statements, we’re 99 per cent sure we have people who saw something and not enough evidence to charge anyone.’ It’s disrespectful to Jai, his loved ones and anyone believing in justice. It is also an insult to intelligence that we accept this explanation. Police should explain to the public why 100 statements and medical reports cannot give answers of what happened that day and who was responsible. From the very beginning I have had concerns about the progress and handling of this investigation. Early police reports to the Australian public played down the

J

incident by stating ‘Jai had no injuries consistent with being hit’. This is outrageous considering they had representatives present at the autopsy to photograph the injuries. If this was treated as a homicide, resources would be directed at who may be a suspect in causing Jai’s injuries and death. So what could possibly be the reason for the lack of accountability? Also disheartening are comments from the community like ‘it was a terrible accident’. In my opinion it was a fight full of aggression and Jai died as a result and that is the reality. Denial has been a huge player in many areas.

n an interview with The Echo, high school principal Ian Graham let us believe that after an internal review there are no problems at the school and suggests ‘the community has learnt a lesson from this tragedy’. This is and will be one of the biggest issues Mullumbimby or any town will face and it’s totally unresolved, badly handled and not enough questions have been asked. I have seen no discussion in The Echo or community in general, apart from the support I received at my petition stall. There appears to be more action debating against a bottleshop attached to the new Woolies supermarket. What are our priorities as a collective force when important issues need addressing and most certainly where is a sense of justice to that beautiful boy who did not deserve to die? Mullumbimby lost innocence that day and the reality of society’s violence came to

I

town. We have to acknowledge its enormity and work towards showing young adults a better way. It’s sad that people now associate Mullumbimby with ‘the boy who got killed at the high school’. Students and school faculty who have information on what happened that day or parents not wanting to involve their children should evaluate what constitutes good human behaviour.

hile in Sydney I had a 40 minute conversation with the Minister of Educaton Verity Firth, handed over 1,200 petition letters and expressed my concerns at the lack of accountability or responsibility for Jai’s death, the handling by the school internally and yes, the school does have problems with bullying and violence. We discussed youth violence, the possible causes, any proactive solutions and I handed over a detailed brief voicing many issues relating to my son’s death. For legal reasons, as expected, Ms Firth did not answer some questions but assured me she was 100 per cent behind wanting the truth to surface at the Coroner’s inquest. I will remember that. I sincerely thank Don Page, our local member, as he was instrumental in arranging that meeting. My detailed Coroner’s brief and 1,400 petitions I presented were handed over to the Crown Solicitor’s office and within a few weeks I was informed an inquest would be held with a date to be set. I thank all who signed and supported the petitions in this area, also special thanks to Mullumbimby newsagency around that time and all who helped prepare for that trip to Sydney, especially

W

Ash. I am extremely grateful for the generous donation and support from Dave and Jess, organisers of Splendour in the Grass festival. The Coroner’s inquest runs for two weeks from January 31, 2011, at the Lismore courthouse, and I have to put faith in this impartial system as a venue for resolution and hopefully positive change. Truth is a powerful word – in this situation it really is about doing what is fair, just and respectful for all concerned. It’s not too late to help and come forward or indeed encourage someone to do so. I appeal to people to write directly by letter, affidavit or statutory declaration to Jessica Murty, Crown Solicitor’s Office, PO Box 25, Sydney 2001, with any information. Even what you may have heard as hearsay evidence is admissible at an inquest and observing a case while in Sydney I found details can help proceedings and findings immensely. I also encourage anyone who has made a statement to police and wants a copy to ring the Tweed Heads police station and ask for it, as is your entitlement. Finally, on Friday August 27 it will be a year since that horrifying day. At 10.55am (his official time of passing) in honour and respect for that beautiful boy Jai and for peace, I will hold a minute’s silence outside Mullumbimby High with members of my supportive NZ family and invite you to join us. You are welcome to pay tribute over the weekend or any time at Jai’s Memorial at Heritage Park as the flag is still flying high and I hope it remains so until resolution and hopefully ‘Truth 4 Jai’.

Go painting with Nolan

Can you tell if it’s a good egg?

Multi-tasking Mandy Nolan just doesn’t have enough on her plate. This entertainment editor for The Echo, standup comedian, comedy teacher, event promoter, mother of five and artist is offering to share her artistic knowhow at Still@the Centre in an ‘Art & Fun’ Workshop on Saturday August 28. And it’s not the practised artists she’s after, it’s the beginners, the people who’ve never touched a canvas, but have secretly longed to know if they’ve got any talent but were just too frightened to find out.

Story & photo Jane Abercrombie

‘I’m very much a naive artist – I paint from intuition,’ says Mandy. ‘I’m not going to teach you perfect anatomical life drawing, I’m much more inter-

ested in finding people’s passion. ‘I think it’s what I do best. What I can share are some techniques for breaking through those creative blocks people have in expressing themselves through art. This will be a great workshop for first timers who just want the courage to approach a canvas, make a mark and in the end, make a painting.’ Mandy’s workshop runs from 1pm to 5pm with limited places. ‘It’s not women only, but expect the workshop to be painting from the feminine.’ Join up at 6684 3374.

Which one of these free range eggs contains genetically modified material? If the chook that laid either of these eggs has eaten genetically modified soya bean meal, then you may end up unwittingly consuming GM food – and supporting the GM industry – with your breakfast omelette. Ingredient labelling regulations in Australia mean that Genetically Modified (or ‘Genetically Engineered’) food can often slip under the radar. Particularly if the GM ingredient has been through the food chain (via an animal), or been processed (like canola oil). For example, if GE canola seeds are processed into canola oil or GE soy beans into soy protein, they require no labelling. So as a consumer it can be pretty confusing. Bec Talbot, pictured, has for the last two years been employed by local health food retailer Santos to sort out just these sorts of issues. As ‘ethics coordinator’ she spends quite a bit of time on the phone to manufacturers, inquiring about product ingredients. Part of it, she says is ‘knowing what questions to ask’. Bec also contacts product

companies to let them know if a product does not comply with the Santos Ethics Policy. This generally means the product will no longer be stocked, however there have been occasions when producers have altered their ingredients in order to meet Santos’s ethics requirements. To encourage shoppers to become better informed, Bec will be conducting a three hour workshop on September 6. The session will include things you may not know about cheese, cotton, and veg-

etable oil, to mention a few. There will also be tips on how to research for yourself exactly what is or is not in your favourite products. Contact Byron College for details on 6684 3374, or enrol online at www.byroncollege. org.au. And by the way, neither of the free range eggs pictured are likely to contain GE, because both are certified organic. According to Bec, buying certified organic products is the easiest way to avoid GE food.

Passionate about the Bay’s future has dramatically decreased. ‘Closed-circuit television (CCTV) works,’ says Mr Ahern. ‘Lighting up the dark areas in the town also makes a huge difference. Despite there being a few businesses with cameras around town, the town needs cameras that are integrated on a network that police can use.’

Hans Lovejoy

Byron United (BU) president Ed Ahern last week retired after four years at the helm. He won’t disappear, however – his contributions with the organisation will continue as vice president and will be shared with Paul Waters of The Balcony. Sevegne Newton was elected unopposed as BU president last week. As a business owner, Mr Ahern employs around 80 staff, and manages the Green Garage, Byron Bay Handimart and Suffolk Park Bakery. He is passionate about the town and its future, and has been in the area since 1978. Formally the Chamber of Commerce, BU was established in 2006 and represents around 300 members. That is about half of Byron Bay’s businesses, according to Mr Ahern. ‘The follow-on effect of that is literally thousands of employees and families that have a vested interest in the future of the Bay,’ he says.

Achievements The lobby group is a vocal advocate for town improvements, and provides networking opportunities for business owners. Over the years BU has liaised with community groups and has instigated beautification campaigns such as ‘Beautiful Byron’, ‘Light Up Byron’ and the Christmas Tree that is erected in town during the holiday season. One achievement that Mr Ahern is particularly proud of is the artwork on the electrical pad stations around the CBD. ‘We worked with Country Energy and the artists about three years ago; there are a few of these dotted around and have had a great affect in limiting graffiti and presenting an alternative to it.’ The colourful and inspired artworks can be seen near the unused railway tracks when driving into town, and in front of Woolworths, among other places. ‘Next week we will be turn-

ing “Spew Alley” into “Surf Alley”,’ says Mr Ahern. The alley is located opposite The Great Northern Hotel, and joins Jonson Street with the carpark behind Cocomangas nightclub. ‘We will work with The Byron Boardriders and Mal Riders to create art murals and light up that part of town.’

BU and Council BU and Council have not seen eye to eye on many issues, with festivals being one of many examples. ‘We have been extremely disappointed with Council in relation to the township of Byron over the years,’ he says. ‘It has manifested itself through the state in which the town is maintained – there are four gardeners serving the southern half of the shire. That fact points to an attitude that we don’t care. The money is spent instead on court cases and legal fees. ‘If the toilets are clean, the gardens are maintained and there is no graffiti, then we would be a lot happier. Through the extra rates and levies that the Byron businesses pay, we would like to see these basic amenities maintained. Council have failed on their duty of care to the town of Byron. It’s not good enough to say we don’t

have the money – the money is there from all our rates.’ At last Thursday’s Council meeting, a motion for ‘Basic Maintenance in Byron Bay’ was approved, with Crs Barham and Cameron voting against. It was watered down, according to Mr Ahern, and BU plans to take the motion back to Council. Mr Ahern claims there have been improvements to the town since campaigning on the topic. ‘To be fair there has been more cleaning and maintenence done recently, but it appears only because we were so vocal about it.’ The fundamentals of the shire’s direction however are not that different between Council and BU. ‘No-one wants high rises and overdevelopment. We are proud of our environmental credentials – we do not share the Gold Coast mentality.’

Tourism is one of the three big economies of Byron Shire, according to Mr Ahern, agriculture and welfare being the others. ‘I see educational opportunities for Byron – Lismore University could provide a satellite campus for example. There was an offer by Southern Cross University a few years ago to build a campus in Byron CBD. The offer was that if the current library was sold to them from Council, they would fund a new library and build a campus.’ Mr Ahern claims that Council rejected the offer. Other townships that have traditionally relied on tourism – Cairns being one – have suffered greatly in recent months. ‘Byron needs to plan for a broader spectrum of economy than just tourism, and promoting professional industries to the region is another area of potential growth.’

Public Notice Investigations are currently underway to determine planning options for West Byron, south of Ewingsdale Road. The study is the first step in a long process which will look closely at what is involved in creating a modern village with its own local shops and parks, and which is pedestrian and bike-friendly. There will be many opportunities for you to have your say in the process and we have already sought the views of Council, government agencies and many community representative groups. Your input to this process is important to determine the best outcome for the land and the Byron community. You are invited to learn more and to give your views at; www.westbyronproject.com.au Surveys completed before Friday 17 September 2010 will be included in the NSW Department of Planning’s consideration of the first stage of the study. Please help us create the best outcome for all of Byron Shire.

World’s Best Stand Up Comedy direct from Great Britain Bad Boys of British Comedy, Sean Meo and Curtis Walker make their ďŹ rst Aussie appearance here next month with a show at the Byron Services Club. It’s international comedy at it’s best, these guys are two of the hottest comics on the circuit, with David Bowie raving Meo was one of the funniest comics he’d ever seen. Tuesday September 28 at 8pm. We have a double pass to giveaway email gigs@echo.net.au with the subject header

‘Brit Gits are Hits’

Justin, is The Bedroom Philosopher, a thirty something musician, come comic, come social commentator come romantic.

uncomfortable facing and dragging them under the bright lights of the stage for all to see. Sure, it’s a kind of therapy and why not? Some people drink, some people skydive, I get on stage and tell people about my intimacy issues.

Brought to the forefront by Triple J, his satirical voice has become the salve to many a broken spirit. He’s currently on tour in support of his new album Songs From The 86 Tram, named after his comedy show of the same name, which was awarded the Director’s Choice award at the 2009 Melbourne International Comedy Festival, and his sold-out slot at the 2010 MICF. He caught up with Seven leading up to his Byron show.

Do you believe that everything is material? You have this charming ability to be so completely open, like the pantry with the door blown off. Is there more Justin still up the back we haven’t seen yet?

Justin, you are so many things... musician, comedian, which is your strongest calling, or are they all inextricably linked? I suppose at heart I’m a writer. The Bedroom Philosopher is a way to get my words out there. I have a disclaimer that if you find me funny I’m a comedian, if you don’t find me funny I’m a musician. If you don’t like my music well, I’m work for the dole.

How much of yourself do you share on stage? I’ve always enjoyed the juxtaposition of taking the darker, weirder parts of life that we are often

I’m still discovering parts of myself. It’s complicated. Sometimes I feel like a tired parody of myself. In that, I’m kind of perpetuating this ‘dark, awkward, messed up’ nerdy kind of character because that’s how I’ve actually been. Once I can get over those hurdles in real life then I’m okay to make fun of them through my songs and jokes. Truth is, I’m actually quite confident and forthright these days bordering on sassy and antagonistic on stage – so it’s a bit weird clutching onto this more emotionally juvenile idea of myself for the sake of the joke. I’m not sure how honest that is. Wherever possible I’ve always wanted to share my life as some kind of public service. I wanted to leave that little pantry door open and stick my neck out and offer up the kind of secret insights that many edit out

for fear of judgement. As the writer Dave Eggers said ‘you make electricity from dirt’ when you take the crap parts of life and make them interesting or funny.

How do you cope share housing? Are you over it yet? Always. It’s like a neverending date where you never get to sleep with the person. You just keep on making chitchat and finding out all this stuff about them in a pseudo intimate way, and then you get passive aggressive about how many towels they have in the bathroom and the fact they don’t wash the coffee mugs out properly. I moved house five times in two years, I’m pretty hard to live with actually. Noise sensitive and really introverted around the house. I do clean the bathroom though, yes, that’s right ladies, but I need a roster because men need rosters and women resent them for that.

I love Tony Martin, how much has his input boosted you as a comic/performer? Massively. He came to my Comedy Festival Show and emailed me afterwards and we’ve stayed in touch since. He was always my favourite on the Late Show. He is by far our most intelligent, genuinely funny comedian and writer. He needs his own show like yesterday. And not one of those ‘hybrid comedy’ shows. One more of them and I’m going to turn Amish.

SEX LIES AND PHARMACEUTICALS... O O O OH MY GOD!

OK, ladies, prepare yourself for some big news, almost half of you have a disease. Thanks to brand new research funded by the pharmaceutical company Pfizer (the people who put pork back on the fork with Viagra) a brand new lady problem has been born. Female Sexual Dysfunction. Or FSD. Yes, chances are you aren’t orgasming enough, or perhaps your vagina isn’t as well lubricated as it should be, and maybe you’re not thinking about sex all the time. Well, I’m sorry to tell you that you’re not normal. Sure, you

might be standing in the canteen buttering breadrolls, but that’s no excuse not to be fantasising about being bent over the microwave for a bit of good old fashioned defrosting... you ‘frigid bitch,’ as Dr Freud might add. But don’t panic, help is on the way. Pretty soon there’s gonna be a pill for your ill. Women all around the world will be achieving five star bloodcurdling climaxes just walking to the shops. In his new book ‘Sex Lies and Pharmaceuticals’ published by Allen & Unwin, journalist Ray Moynihan reveals just what ‘dysfunctions’ drug companies have been cooking up to create new markets for product peddling. It’s something they’ve been doing for the last few decades, making illness out of ordinary life. Women with premenstrual pain have ‘premenstrual dysphoric disorder’, people with extreme shyness have ‘social anxiety disorder’ and kids who exhibit any high energy non-compliant behaviours are diagnosed with attention deficit hyperacivity disorder. They used to be called little shits, and rather than being sedated into submission they took careful, patient and firm parenting. Anything can become a disorder. I hate paying my bills. So is that ‘Payment Deficit Disorder’? I abhor doing my

tax, and at times I’ve let it go for up to seven years. Do I have a Taxual Delay Dysfunction? I also hate Tony Abbott. But apparently that is normal. No drugs have been successful making him palatable. I feel sorry for the blokes, the whole erectile dysfunction thing came out of nowhere, and before we knew it there were billboards on highways asking if he’s hard enough and can go all night. The bloke who was a two minute hero of burning passion the night before is suddenly a quaking pool of limp-dicked inadequacy. With pharmaceutical companies funding researchers to define and create diagnostic tools for Female Sexual Dysfunction, is it any wonder that they decided that a whopping 43 per cent of women are sexually inadequate? They are the pioneers of a new frontier, creating a new land of normative expectations about our sexuality, where it’s assumed that men all want huge 10 hour erections, and women are lining up for multiple orgasms and vaginas so wet you need wellingtons just to get to the bathroom. While the dysfunction addresses problem with lubrication, orgasm, arousal and pain, it fails to address woman’s biggest sexual organ: her heart. Sure, pump us

with drugs and we’ll fuck like rabbits, we’ll come like steam trains, we’ll make every day like living in a porn film, but once the orgasms have all burnt out, we’ll still spend the rest of the day sulking about not feeling loved enough. I don’t know if you really need a drug for that. You want to know how to turn a woman on and get her to the peak of sexual excitement? Do the dishes, put your undies in the dirty clothes basket and say ‘Wow, did you buy new cushions? They really look fantastic. Is that organic cotton/silk blend..?’ ‘Sex Lies and Pharmaceuticals’ could be the most important book you read all year. The brainwashing machine is getting ready and coming to a doctor’s surgery near you. As Leonore Tiefer says in the book ‘Sex is like dancing... you’d see a doctor if you broke your ankle but not to get tested for your dancing abilities or advice on how to improve your steps.’ Mary Ryan’s is taking bookings for the launch (with author Ray Moynihan and my good self). There will be cosmopolitans and salsa, 6 for 6.30pm, Thursday September 2. Book via emailbyronbay@ maryryan.com.au

Why is love such a mystery do you think? It’s a source of constant inspiration... and sorrow.... is it the sorrow that inspires the most?

How do you keep your hand in at standup, it’s easy to lose your nerve if you’ve been off the rails for a while.

You get a lot more material out of heartbreak, for certain. Relationships are fatally flawed because we are kind of emotionally lazy and as soon as we sense that we can outsource our love for ourselves we switch off and stop working on ourselves and allow our partner to be our source of spiritual nourishment. Ultimately once the novelty period of lust wears off you realise the scales are poorly imbalanced and you hurriedly try to overcompensate only to create a topsy turvy dynamic that might last a few months or years but ultimate you realise you are very unhappy. It’s about pain thresholds. I’ve been told that the first five years of a marriage are crap because you’re trying to get over your expectations of each other. Our programming is all messed up from childhood and we spend our first 30 years getting over that. The vibe I get if you’re with the right person and you persevere through the crap period then it’ll get REALLY good. But understandably most people want to bail as soon as it gets boring. I’m single at the moment and realising I have to genuinely love myself before I’ll be much good to anyone.

Yeah, to be honest I don’t really try. I don’t go to comedy club nights to work up a new five minutes. I don’t enjoy that scene, so I suppose I’m a lot more comfortable as a muso than a comic in that respect. I’ve found it’s not worth battling in front of a crowd who aren’t there to see you or don’t like irony or absurdity much. I’d rather cultivate my own audience slowly but surely and perform to them each year in the Comedy Festivals. That’s starting to happen which is a massive relief.

How do you take an idea and make it into a song? A comic idea still has to hold its own as a song... and as a comic idea. It has to be a good song through and through, regardless of lyrics. Honestly, I think the difference between me and most musical comedy is that my songs stand up as songs, you can listen to them over and over, they follow pop music conventions. My greatest fear is being mediocre. Cynical standups tend to think that musical comedy is just average material turned into rhyming couplets with some music under it. I would argue that I am a good songwriter therefore I understand when you need to repeat a chorus, and that not every chorus has to be different to get another joke through. Some of my stuff is more ambiguous and ‘quirky’ than laugh out loud funny. That’s why I perform in music venues as well, it takes all that pressure off.

How was the Melbourne Comedy Festival Roadshow? Is it mentally tiring being on the road with comics being ‘on’ all the time? Personally I’d find it depressing. I hide from other comics. Doing six gigs a week for three and a half weeks is nuts for a musician. I was doing 13 songs a night, all different voices and accents, I had to wrap myself in cotton wool and take it really easy. I’ve found the festival enormously demoralising in the past – I’d get so intimidated and freaked out. This was the first year I’ve been confident enough to actually enjoy it and be in the moment rather than being electrocuted by nervous energy.

What is it about the 86 tram that lights your candle? It’s the rock star tram. It has all walks of life, from trendies to blokes without shirts on yelling. It’s the great equalizer, and from a character study perspective it was the perfect place to start. It’s the theatre of the every day. Someone once said ‘people watching is like church for me’ and I agree with that.’

What’s in store for the show in Byron – who do you have playing with you? My brilliant band The Awkwardstra. We are like the rock eistedfodd for home school children. There’s double percussion and a sitar. It’s surprisingly funky.

The Ghost Writer

Salt I’m told that both Margaret and David awarded this four stars. That seems more than generous, but, the Oz cine-world being as small and incestuous as it is, they’d probably just been duchessed at the PR party for their mate, Aussie director Phillip Noyce. There can be no argument that the film is not made with clinical expertise – it moves at breathtaking speed and, significantly, is wrapped in a shroud of mystery that keeps you guessing throughout. The problem is that the genre itself is so bogus and tired. As always, the suspension of disbelief demanded of the audience is extreme, but included in the preposterousness that we are willing to swallow because it’s that type of movie, there is one scenario that really does go too far – we are asked to accept that Angelina Jolie, FULLY AIR-CONDITIONED EVERY WED ALL SEATS ALL SESSIONS $8 ONLY

our luscious lipped super heroine, could hide her hair, don a military uniform and pass herself off as a bloke. God help us all if the brass that run the free world are so stupid as to buy that. Evelyn Salt (Jolie), a highly placed CIA agent, is suspected of being a Russian mole when a defector walks in off the street and claims that she was trained as a child by the KGB and has been waiting twenty years to execute a daring mission. To Salt’s astonishment, the dobber’s persuasiveness turns her own people against her, so, cornered by security guys, she makes a nifty rocket launcher out of the janitor’s cleaning fluids and the hollow leg of an office table and blows them away (they are the first of a spiralling body count), then toes it in a chase sequence that I feared might never end, though I did enjoy the leaps between semi-trailers (Ange was at home by the pool with the twins while the stuntwomen did all the dangerous work). As a character, Salt is entirely superficial. The only emotional insight we get of her is when she says goodbye to her cute dog before embarking on her path of murderous mayhem – but it’s enough that we have Jolie, who is both sexy and smart, to barrack for. Casting the always likeable Chiwetel Ejiofor and Liev Schreiber, an actor who has mastered the sinister art of speaking without opening his mouth, as Salt’s conflicted associates tends to dilute the element of surprise that is otherwise skilfully withheld, but if you dig high gloss violence, including a splendid garrotting as coup de grâce, go for it. ~ John Campbell

INCEPTION

<echowebsection=Cinema>

common sense, the patriarch with the enviable cellar but who keeps his heart locked. Soak up every tiny moment, the director seems to be saying, after all, things can never be the same again. In a way, the film is an ode to parenting, taken at a mature and sophisticated level. The joys of Rémi Bezançon’s dense and ever-changing

story lie in the different perspectives, the surprises and the sequence of events which can never be prearranged. This is a vibrant film filled with truths of everyday life – trying to communicate, misunderstandings, circumstances and emotions which mesh together like a single heartbeat. ~Lounge Cinema

Known only as the Ghost, we never learn the name of the writer, played by Ewan McGregor, who has been called in to smarten up the memoirs of former British PM Adam Lang (Pierce Brosnan). He is a novelist rather than historian (his most recent, the story of a magician, is ‘I Came, I Sawed, I Conquered’), but the bucks are too big to refuse. The body of the hack who’d been working on the project before him was found washed up on the beach after he’d apparently got drunk on a ferry and fallen overboard, however the Ghost discovers that there is more to it than that as, like

Denmark). McGregor employs his natural boyishness to telling effect as the naïve hired hand who is out of his J.J.Gittes (Jack Nicholson) depth but compelled in Roman Polanski’s classic ‘Chinatown’ (1974), he unearths to follow his instincts, while Brosnan is a potentially controversial revelation as the vain, details from his subject’s light-weight but volatile past. Intrigue and a sense of Lang - I had no idea he imminent danger grow when could be so good, and the Ghost moves in with if there is a flaw in the Lang and his calculating wife movie it is that he does Ruth (Olivia Williams) at their isolated residence among the not have more time in it. The environment windswept sand-dunes of Martha’s Vineyard. Meanwhile, is colourless and inhospitable, while the International War Crimes Commission in The Hague has the interiors, mostly in a bunker-like house of raw called for Lang’s prosecution concrete walls, add to the over an incident in which unease, in much the same he sent a group of alleged way that they did in Polanski’s terrorists to be interrogated ‘Repulsion’ (1965). It frequently by torture in Egypt. The link feels like Hitchcock – how with Tony and Cherie Blair easy it is to see Cary Grant is obvious, but Polanski also makes droll observation of his in McGregor’s place as he escapes his pursuers by own circumstances, he being jumping from a moving ship ostracised in Switzerland to the dock – and Alexandre while the US courts were Desplat’s spare but unsettling out to have him extradited (and shrewdly not overused) (set in Massachusetts, it was score makes patent reference shot mostly in Germany and to Bernard Herrmann. With an ending that is pure ‘Chinatown’, directed with a beguiling lightness of touch and a straightforwardness that does not stoop to modish trickery, this is an outstanding film from a great filmmaker. ~ John Campbell

Television Guide Not much in the way of new movies this weekend despite all the channels popping up like mushrooms. Programmers must have been exhausted by the election. 1. A couple struggling to make ends meet decide to make a porn movie. Ends meet spectacularly. That’s Torremolinos 73 (SBS1, Friday, 11pm). 2. How excitement! Kirsten Dunst and Gabrielle Union exchange bon mots in Bring It On (NBN, Saturday, 7.30pm), a comedy about cheerleading. 3. Will Ferrell stars in the clever satire Talladega Nights (GO!, Sunday, 9.30pm). American muscle car racing never seemed so interesting before.

Mungo’s Crossword first published in The Week.

E ARIES: Don’t let this demanding, hard-to-please week press your buttons, but do exercise one of your best and most loveable strengths: uncomplicatedness. Anyone can complicate matters, few move naturally in the opposite direction. But you can, so do and others will thank you. F TAURUS: While disruptive forces may necessitate your stepping up and lifting your game, hold off on radical decisions till the end of week because many others are also adjusting to fit changing circumstances. And remember that relaxing isn’t a luxury right now, it’s a necessity. G GEMINI: Despite retro undercurrents this is a buzzy week in the business arena. In the private sector significant others might be emotionally withholding, though probably not enough to affect your perennial smiley face. Discretion’s your most important call of all, as in what you disclose to whom. H CANCER: If you can’t change your mind you can’t change anything, so if what you’re thinking this week isn’t making you feel good, find some new thoughts and midweek full moon could see you undergoing a change of heart – or at least making a heartfelt change. I L EO: The general public could be abrupt, sharp-tongued, argumentative and temperamental this week – or oops, was that you? Careful, majesty. There’s plenty of healing energy presently available on all relationship levels but it needs tender and, dare I suggest, humble handling. J V IRGO: The Sun joining Mercury for Happy Birthday Virgo month combines with midweek full moon in persuasive Pisces to smooth this week’s prickly interactions just for you. If others infringe or impinge, be tactful and considerate because this week gives back exactly what you offer it.

M S AGITTARIUS: If misunderstandings, mixed messages or fiscal stresses have drained you to low resistance levels, forget about saving the world just for this week and take care of yourself. Focusing on home, loved ones and your own creativity will get your mojo working again in no time. N CAPRICORN: Midweek full moon activates life-altering flashes of comprehension about what’s happening to our planet, and this week’s Sun in a fellow earth sign supports your modelling the changes you want to see in your world, though results won’t reach full bloom for another month. O AQUARIUS: Other peoples’ ideas mightn’t be music to your ears, but the answers you want become apparent this week if you’re able to convert critical feedback into a learning curve. While it seems obstacles are blocking progress and evaporating your patience, see them as blessings in disguise. P P ISCES: If anything in your life needs realistic adjustments this week will make them – beautifully too, so long as you filter drag-down influences from positive, nourishing input. With emotional turbulence and uncertainty doing the rounds, avoid confrontations and infighting which only escalate tensions.

The favourites triumphed at the World Junior Championships in Poland in a tournament which showed that Asia still has a long way to go to match Eastern Europe in depth at the Under 20 tournament. In the absence of superstars like Magnus Carlsen – yes, the world number one is still technically a junior! – and Anish Giri, Russia took three of the top four places in the open division, with top seed Dmitry Andreikin (pictured) taking the title on a tie-breaker from the 17-year-old from Elista, Sanan Sjugirov.

Beauties within the Beasts Victoria Cosford At the risk of hurting the feelings of the fruit and vegetables concerned – there are those whose appearances are so odd, undistinguished or just plain ugly that they are frequently overlooked. Shoppers’ fingers reach instead for slender glossy zucchini, plump plum-coloured eggplant, the wax-like crescent of a moon-coloured banana, a tangelo like a jewel. The unspectacular colours of lumpy, bumpy, knobbly, nubby specimens camouflage them among flamboyant displays of infinitely more glamorous produce. I could feel sorry for them except I know that disguised within are such great delicacies. Often it isn’t enough, anyway, that the vegetable is too unprepossessing for purchasing: it also looks challenging to prepare and thence to cook. Take the artichoke, for example, one of the most blissful vegetables in the world but, at least in this country, often ignored. A friend told me recently that she simply did not know what to do with that bunched-together dome of tightly packed leaves looking like an over-size thistle. In fact a thistle it is, and fervent admirer Jane Grigson rhapsodises thus: ‘The artichoke above all is the vegetable expression of civilised living, of the long view, of increasing delight by anticipation and crescendo. No wonder it was once regarded as an aphrodisiac. It had no place in the troll’s world of instant gratification... It is first for admiration then each leaf has to be pulled away for eating and dipped in sauce...’ Really, there is nothing daunting about it, and whether or not you eat it raw as she describes it, or as part of the Italian raw vegetable mix called pinzimonio, or prepare it for cooking, the treatment is simple. Snap off all the tough outer leaves until you are left with the pale lemony lime of the firm inner heart, and with a strong knife chop off the top third. Cut vertically into quarters and simmer in olive oil, garlic, chicken stock and white wine until meltingly tender; season with salt and pepper and freshly

chopped parsley and eat just like that, with bread. Then there is the quince. Though related to apples and pears it is impossible, virtually, to eat this fruit raw – it must be cooked , and cooked long and slow. Even before you cook it – and generally speaking it is best either poached or baked – you must rid it of its exceedingly tough skin. Cooking quinces is one of those glorious acts of alchemy whereby the change is so dramatic that magic has taken place, the chunked pale flesh transforming into ruby translucence. Custard apples are another example of an unbeautiful fruit whose interior yields so much pleasure. There are two varieties, Pink Mammoth and African Prides, the latter the more prevalent in this region and the former, as its name suggests, weighing up to as much as 3 kg per fruit. You don’t even need to cook custard apples either – simply halve them and spoon out the luscious white flesh whose large smooth seeds are effortlessly removed. More a creamy watermelon flavour than custard, they may be blended and folded through yoghurts for smoothies, ice creams and mueslis, cream to fill cakes or meringues. Just make sure when you gently press a custard apple that, like an avocado, it will gracefully yield. As for celeriac! This bulbous root, a member of the celery family, hides beneath its uncomely exterior an earthily delicate flavour with a hint of heat. Its most common representation is as a French remoulade when it is very finely shredded (peeled first, naturally, and often blanched to retain whiteness) then folded through a mustardflavoured mayonnaise – but it is as lovely roasted with other vegetables or turned into a soup. As with artichokes, if you do not plan to cook the vegetable straight away you should drop it into water made acid with a cut lemon or a tablespoon of vinegar, to prevent the sort of unsightly discolouring which may be as off-putting as its appearance. At the Northern our team of Italian chefs and pizzaioli are dedicated to bring you a mix of autthentic flavours from Italy as well as a selection of burgers, steaks, fresh fish dishes and all the favourites. Our wide range of traditional Italian wood fired pizzas have us voted one of the best throughout the Northern Rivers.

Given that many of these are not only regular restaurant goers but also belonging to the generation most likely to spend more money in restaurants and to refer more customers to them, this is a situation which would be in the interests of venues to address.

Eighty per cent of the respondents surveyed Byron Beach Cafe owner Ben Kirkwood, said they would sometimes or always avoid in accepting the award, was keen to point those restaurants that looked or sounded out that their success ‘could not have been noisy, rating acoustics as the third most achieved without the support, feedback and important factor when choosing somewhere cooperation we receive from so many of the to dine, after food and service. other great accommodation and tourism activity providers in this area, as well as The survey was carried out as part of the backing we get from Byron Bay Visitors Hearing Awareness Week by hearing care Centre, Northern Rivers Tourism, Byron Shire provider HearingLife.

All they find in the forest st is the burnt remains of a house made of sugar and bread, the scorched bones of an old woman and a recipe for gingerbread. ‘Why would someone come to the middle of bugger-all to knock an old lady?’ says Sergeant Grimm, as the forensics team slip under the blue and white tape. ‘Family maybe,’ says Detective Inspector Anderson, kicking over the traces of a fairy toadstool ring. ‘Bad blood, delayed inheritance.’ ‘Those footprints are pretty small. Gnomes maybe.’ ‘Nah, not the gnomes’ MO. The gnomes are more likely to be knocking trolls near the bridge over the gold concession.’ ‘No weapon. We’ll have to wait until forensics looks at the marks.’ ‘Mightn’t need a weapon if the woman was as old as the doc thinks. The perps could just give her a push.’ ‘What’s with those iron cages, though? What’s an old bag need with cages?’ ‘Keeps her dogs?’ ‘No traces of dogs.’ ‘What’s on that paper?’

Shores Pennant ladies in championships Byron Toss Geckos Brian Mollet

Ocean Shores Ladies Pennant Team: Lyn McGowran, Barbara Sprengel, Joymaree Quirke, Maureen James, Margaret McConville, Thelma Warr, Joan Bartlett and manager Glenys Johnston.

The Ocean Shores Women’s Grade 3 Pennant team contested the State Finals at The Entrance from August 14-16. Fine weather but a cold wind on Monday and Tuesday, warmed up for Wednesday and bowls were fought on one good fast green and another which was slower and not in as good a condition. Teams from 12 groups from all over the state descended on the championships and we were divided into two sections for the playoffs. The Ocean Shores team were in section one. The ladies played two

rounds per day with five all together over the tournament. Day one saw our girls play Tura Beach and win overall with one rink win and one rink loss. They won on both rinks in their second match to win overall against Lidcombe. Day two saw a repeat of the previous afternoon with a two rinks win for an overall victory over Pittwater. The Goulburn Railway team proved to be the undoing of the team, they won one rink but they fell short by four shots, which would have seen the

winners of the section. The final results saw them achieve second place in division one with a score of 19 out of a possible 25. Goulburn Railway won the section with 23 points. The winners of each section went on to play the finals on Thursday at Ettalong and the section two team from Orange City were the champions. The team said the weather was fine with a cold wind on Monday and Tuesday, which warmed up for the Wednesday afternoon matches. Bowls were

played on one good fast green but the other was slower and not in as good a condition. ‘We all came away very pleased with our efforts and felt we were competitive with teams from all over the state,’ says bowler Maureen James. ‘Obviously we were disappointed that we didn’t make the finals but pleased to have had the opportunity to represent our club and the Tweed Byron District. Hopefully the southerners now know where Ocean Shores is, we had to explain where we came from to every team we played’.

For players in the Nick Shand Memorial series, it was a relief to face the cold hard certainty of a cricket ball on Sunday after a night of chasing political shadows. At least you know if someone serves you up some spin you can hit them out of the park. Reigning champs, the Byron Full-Tossers took on St Seymours Geckos, Alex winning the toss for the Tossers and deciding to field with Lomath Ovals turf thicker and slower than your average voter and the weather like the boss’s daughter, bright and fine but a little chilly. The Tossers were soon off to a flying start as Jan tied up one end while Alex wrecked the top order with two wickets in his first over. Greg-O and James weathered a torrid period where the Byron lads, with their trademark unrelenting banter and boundless enthusiasm, pressed for an early rout. James woke the scorer from an induced coma with a few timely blows but the Tossers strangled the first session with Neil, Christian and Jeff all taking scalps, the most crucial of which was Gregs overhead ald 34 ¼.

mark on the boundary to account for the dangerous Cliff. St Seymour joined James and at last we had a batsman stubborn enough to place a high price on his wicket, every stroke in his three- shot repertoire was on display. At the other end however, after James bought up his defiant 30, the batsmen were being turned away like Sri Lankan economic refugees. Fiaz got a prize first wicket when he had James caught for 36 to close out the Geckos for a lean-looking 98. After the break Neil and Christian knew they could play fairly safely. They saw off Mr. Curly (Greg-O) and Stewies slingers and had 30 on the board before Sean removed Neil. This brought in fast Eddie whose 33 quick runs blocked the Geckos out of the game like a fortified fence festooned with ribbons around a battling small business. Brian and Greg were at the crease and enjoying themselves when the total was passed to give the Byron Tossers the win and a mortgage on second place in the preliminary rounds.

Giants end season with hattrick win Junior AFL in Bruns

Last game? Giants’ club captain Aaron Diehm was so set on Sunday being his last dash across the paddock, that he played in both the reggies and the firsts. Will we see Aaron next year? More Giants photos: www.treefaeriefotos.com/events. Story & photo Tree Faerie

So what do I know about rugby league? Not a lot. I spent my first two years as an Echo sports writer listening to a chorus of ‘LEAGUE!’ thundering through the hallways of the office, every time I said the ‘r’ word without following it up with the ‘l’ word. I have had the luxury of sitting behind my desk and letting Mr Campbell do all the work, and rabid Rabbitoh that he is, the saving grace for a Melbourne girl who likes her footy players long and lean and able to reach the jars at the top of the kitchen cupboard. Mr Campbell has also been the saving grace for you lot, who sit and enjoy the luxury of reading one of the best league (see I got it right) reports in the country. Unfortunately for thee and me, this week Mr Campbell was otherwise occupied so it became my job to trudge out to Les Donnelly and try and make

sense of what happened. Well to be honest, I am not much wiser than I was when I got there, but here goes. The fact that I got any of it right was due to Aaron Diehm’s missus. She said it was lucky I was there on such an auspicious occasion, of her husband’s last game – although, she says he has been threatening this for a while – and she was able to point out the difference between some of the players. ‘See that one has head gear and that one has a knee bandage,’ says she. ‘That one over there has both knees bandaged because neither of them work very well any more.’ A nervous last minute call to the ladies reminded me that this wasn’t the netball, the smell of liniment on the eastern side of the canteen a noteworthy hazard. When I got to the field, the 18s were just finishing off their match, to see them into the finals. The opponents for the day were the Murwillumbah club

and Mullum’s 50-0 win said one of two things: Either Murwillumbah had already started their end of year celebrations or there is something seriously wrong in the north. I am not sure how a team can get to the end of the season and not score a point in a match. One down, two to go and the reggies were up. The Mullum team came out onto the field and then the Murwillumbah team came out onto the field and that’s where my confusion started. The ball went one way, then the other, and large slabs of human slammed into other large slabs of human, the sound effects making me want to vom. But players and spectators alike seemed to enjoy the run, and for all the noise of flesh on flesh, there were actually only a few injuries. The game was sort of interesting and I think I began to get the hang of it. Run, fall down. Run, fall down. Run, fall down. Run, fall down. Run, pretend to fall down, kick, run, run, run,

The battle for union finals is on The battle for a rugby union finals berth is on this Saturday at the Bangalow Sports Fields when Byron Bay who are fouth on the ladder, play Bangalow who are third in the Village Competition knockout semi final. In the first round at home, Byron accounted for Bangalow 7-0. In the second round Bangalow got up on the bell 24-22. Both clashes were exciting high speed and physical games. In recent seasons there have been some classic encounters with Bangalow taking the honours, but this year Byron have recruited well and will play a Bangalow team minus eight players from last years premiership winning team. This season Byron have www.echo.net.au

toughened up their forward pack under the guidence of coach Warren Fisher and lead by Michael ‘Wombat’ Leece. They have troubled the top teams with their willingness to spread the ball to the wings through their quick and skilful backline. Bangalow have failed to reach any great heights as per normal but will be looking to up the ante in front of their loyal supporters finally having a settled team finally. Finals experience in the past should assist Bangalow’s performance, with six players lining up having won the last five premierships in a row. Captained by Jock Craigie and coached by Simon Balcon, Bangalow will be looking to their go to men. Both teams

won’t stray from what has worked previously. Byron is playing a more structured game from previous years. Their set piece has improved and they have ball players across the park. Their natural game is to spread the ball at any opportunity. Bangalow will look to play a disciplined structured game, controlling the ball and building pressure. It will be a case of which game plan works on the day. Sport lovers and spectators are invited to come along to the grounds to watch what is expected to be a great game of union at 2.30pm. Support your local team and enjoy grass roots rugby at its best. Food and beverages will be available at the ground.

fall down. Mullum must have run and fallen down really well in the game because the score at the end was 36-6 and the locals were a happy bunch. By three o’clock I was in the home stretch and the first grade players hit the field. Mrs Diehm’s hubby decided that since it was his last, he may as well play the whole day. I soon discovered that first grade play is a whole other ball game. These fellows mean business and I suspect there really were a few sheep stations at stake. The first thing I noticed was that a couple of these blokes might be able to reach the jars on the top of the cupboard. Secondly I noticed that if anything, the slap of human on human was louder than before and I began to get seriously concerned about the health of these blokes. I hoped their mothers weren’t watching. If it were me I’d be running out onto the pitch, ‘Are you okay junior? Did that big man hurt you?’ The formula for the game was pretty much the same with the running and the falling, but I was starting to see the sense and had an over powering urge to swear at the ref. The game, as it turned out, was quite exciting for all the running and falling and occasional kicking. In the end Mullum scored the last try right on full time. Mrs Diehm’s husband decided to really have the last word on the match and lined the ball up to kick. I closed my eyes and walked away, not wanting the fairytale to end. The good news for league (see I got it right again), fans is, that you lot will continue to be spolied as Mr Campbell will be back next year to serve up his special menu of league lasagne and I’ll go back to what I know best. EATING HOT PIES! Giants enjoyed ‘Mad Monday’ with brekky at the Bruns, lunch at the Billi and a relax in a paddock down the street.

The Brunswick Valley Junior AFL had their presentation at the sportsfields in Brunswick Heads on Sunday afternoon, following a morning of indoor soccer at Billinudgel. The league had a fun season that was enjoyable for both players and parents alike. They are looking forward to a great 2011 as all players showed great improvement during this year’s season. During the presentation celebration and BBQ, each of the children received an award for their participation during the year. Two special awards were given to Connor Facey who was the most improved player and Neesha Clarke who was Best and Fairest for the season. Photo Janice Dutton.

Magpies down to Lismore In the final game of the season, the Magpies hosted the team they love to hate: Lismore. The Magpies were missing four key players and started the game flat. The inclusion of Big bird Jay Campbell and ever green John Porrit lifted Magpie spirits. Tommy Clune, Kane Bullock and Marcus Atkinson were getting their hands on the ball in the centre and supplying Nick Preston up forward who kicked 6. Johnny Brooks and Sean McQueen were trying to lift the Magpies with some hard

running football but overall the Magpies were beaten by a more desperate team. The final scores were 16-16: 112 to 11-12: 78. Coach Floyd was disappointed by the lack of commitment and skills shown by the Pies. With both sides to play again in next Saturday’s sudden death semi-final at Oakes oval at 12.30pm, the Magpie players will need to show a bit more endeavour and pride in the jumper if they want to progress.

BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY – BYRON BAY Painted Earth is a young growing business – a paint shop selling Australia’s largest range of sustainable paints and wood finishes. Established seven years ago as a home based business, it moved to retail premises in the Arts & Industry Park of Byron Bay in June 2008. The business has a good reputation, a strong stable product and knowledge base and valuable strategic relationships, and is now poised ready to expand sales both locally and Australia wide in the rapidly growing LOHAS market. The owner, Deborah Preston, is seeking a business partner to both invest and work in the business with her, to take it into this next stage. The person must have solid business experience, sales and marketing expertise, and good communication skills. They must be ready to participate in a conscious, forward thinking business, able to adapt to our uncertain times, have high integrity, attention to detail and an enthusiasm for the green building and renovating industry. An understanding of paints and wood finishes and training in Greenstar accreditation or other relevant sustainability consultancy would be advantageous. Investment capital of $100,000 is required to buy a half share in Painted Earth. Contact: deb@house-paint.com.au

Grow your own home with hemp Entering the housing market is not With legal industrial hemp licences only a challenge for first time buyers, now available throughout Australia, but also for consumers wanting to including New South Wales, Growing take care of the environment without Your Own Home is now a possibility. spending a fortune. According to longtime local industrial hemp expert Paul Benhaim, ‘Just one acre of land is enough for you to grow a crop of hemp that can be converted to a regular looking building on that same piece of land. ‘And we are not talking rustic homes, but regular looking, solid council-approved buildings.’ These new eco friendly buildings are built by regular builders, and don’t require specialist designs, though the developers recommend solar passive designs that take advantage of the thermal mass offered by the hemp walls. As well as residential and commercial proProperties in focus jects, simple renovations are possible. pages 52 Until now you had to import materi-

inside:

als to be sure of a standard building product. Previous versions of similar technologies commonly known as ‘hemcrete’ have also required processing of hemp in large factories, which do not yet exist in Australia. The new technology developed over ten years by Klara Marosszeky allows simple harvesting of hemp that makes use of the whole stalk to create a building material that has excellent fire and insulation properties. Although an option, no rendering or finishing is required (you can colour through the mix) and all local materials can be used in what is becoming the leader in the latest trend in environmentally friendly building techniques.

Klara is currently hoping for a project to see some genuine and direct outcomes for the Indigenous people of Australia in regards to affordable ‘homegrown’ housing. Klara Marosszeky and Paul Benhaim are about to launch their findings in a new book on Building with Hemp which will include a detailed construc-

tion manual. To support professional builders, self-builders, renovators and eco enthusiasts Klara and Paul will personally share this technique at workshops around Australia in 2011. A oneoff preview workshop will be launched at Starseed Nursery (home of the Bamboo Festival) in Byron Bay on September 4.

Homeowners told to research before renovating Business Directory page 55

Open Houses, Auctions & New Listings page 55

The post-GFC economic climate has created an ideal market for home renovations but according to Suncorp Bank it’s worth New S outh Wales residents doing their sums before they splash any cash. An independent survey commissioned by Suncorp Bank found one in ten Australians who’ve renovated their homes admit to blowing their budget. Suncorp Bank Regional General Manager for NSW Regional Stephen Morgan said a slower economy and relatively quiet housing market had created a more competitive environment for tradespeople for smaller renovation jobs.

‘Hom e ow n ers could take advantage of the better market for tradespeople but in order to avoid wasting thousands of dollars it’s a good idea to do your financial homework before calling in the builders,’ Mr Morgan said. The survey found 67 per cent of New South Wales people faced with a decision about whether to renovate or relocate chose to renovate, 28 per cent of those chose to renovate because they didn’t want to go through the hassle of moving house. Mr Morgan said if avoiding hassle was the major reason for choosing to renovate, homeowners should tread carefully.

‘Renovating can be a messy and time consuming experience and it’s often not the best investment to pay big dollars to have the best house on the street, especially if its value is likely to remain the same as the others around it,’ he said. The survey also found New South Wales residents were more likely to seek advice from their friends (44%) or the internet (40%) than a real estate agent (30%) or financial advisor (21%). ‘While a friend’s advice can be invaluable, consulting a professional expert who understands the local housing market should be a priority,’ Mr Morgan said. ‘Housing markets are more conservative than they were two years ago and it’s important to take that into consideration too. ‘It’s also a good idea to seek financial advice on how to pay for the renovations. If you can’t afford to spend the money up front, speak to your bank about taking

out a loan with a repayment plan that best suits your lifestyle. Extending your mortgage or taking out a personal loan are some of the options.’

Three Important Home Renovation Questions 1 Why do you want to renovate? Is it for long-term lifestyle reasons, such as creating space for a growing family or to add value to an investment? 2 How much will your house be worth once the renovations are complete? If you’re renovating to add value in the short term make sure you don’t pay out more than you’re likely to get back. 3 Who have you asked for advice? Seek the advice of friends and neighbours but make sure you also consult a few experts, such as local real estate agents, accountants or professional financial advisors.

Oh no, fruit bats (flying foxes) are getting a taste for coffee beans! According to a local grower, the beans are ripening earlier in the warmer weather – what happened to winter anyway? – and fruit bats are making the most of it.

Signs of the times. ‘Opposite the Buttery, on the corner of Friday Hut Road and Lismore Road I noticed a young woman trying to add a word above the altered sign, which read now GIVE UP instead of GIVE WAY,’ says our informant. ‘I stopped the car and she said she couldn’t reach. I was as short as she was so I couldn’t do it so I moved the car next to the sign and she stood on my bonnet in her socks and added the word NEVER, plus a smiley face. There’s another altered sign near Possum Creek which has been changed from FAST FLOWING WATER to FAST FLOWING WORRIES. Someone is trying to tell us something.’ Photo courtesy Susanna Freymark
