Council backflip on Drizzle no barrier to bikers land applauded Eve Jeffery

Council voted unanimously last week to rescind the decision to swap land in Brunswick Heads for land in Byron Bay with the NSW Land and Property Management Authority (LPMA). Council’s turnabout on their July resolution was applauded by the people of Brunswick Heads. Councillors’ background notes to the rescission vote stated ‘Since the passing of the subject resolution, it has become apparent that the current LPMA draft plans for the redevelopment of the Brunswick Heads Caravan Parks are potentially detrimental in many aspects of their community impact including parking, traffic movement, foreshore access, safety and residential amenity.

Not critically evaluated ‘It would appear that in moving to negotiate on land swaps with the LPMA these impacts were not fully taken into account and we now need to consider them in more detail.’ In her public access speech, representative for the Brunswick Heads Foreshore Protection Group Michele Grant said that is was clear that Council had not critically evaluated the five proposed sites in Brunswick Heads. She added that until recently they were not even aware of the impact of the resolution on traffic, parking, pedestrian access or the general amenity of the community. ‘The Land acquisition process detailed in the Corporate Manager’s report may be legal, but it has clearly failed to provide adequate information to our elected councillors or engage in proper consultation with the affected communities. There has been no consultation with interested stakeholders in Brunswick Heads. Neither Council nor LPMA have informed local residents or adjoining

neighbours of their plans to close the roads they live in.’ As a resident of Brunswick Heads, Councillor Diane Woods was unable to vote during the process, though her ideas on the subject were clear. ‘I think the rescission motion is fair,’ she said. ‘Given that the community did not have the opportunity to meet and discuss the implications of the change of ownership of the lands in question.’ Cr Woods said that the original decision was made when it came before council as a late report. ‘It was at the end of a very long day in the chambers and the collateral effect of all the changes was not evident at the time,’ she said.

Securing Fishheads tenure denied There is a suggestion that council’s main priority was to secure tenure over the Fishheads restaurant. Cr Tom Tabart denied that saying, ‘There is no possible connection between the land swaps and tenure of the Fishheads shop. ‘Any suggestion that there is must be the figment of an overactive imagination. There was however a dark and seamy tale surrounding the Fishheads past dealings with staff which completely passed the media by.’ Cr Tabart did agree that the original decision was not a good one. ‘Yes the majority of councillors certainly lost the plot on Bruns Parks.’

Mistakes admitted ‘impressive’ ‘It’s easy to see how Councillors “overlooked” the issue,’ said Ms Grant after the meeting. ‘I am really impressed with the way they admitted the report slipped under their radar and have quickly moved to reconsider the deal, now that they are properly informed.’

Velocette owners from the country gathered at Lennox Head last week for a run around the Northern Rivers. The cyclists had short rides planned for each day of a week long run but had to reduce the length of their daily rides due to the inclement weather that dogged the whole trip. The rain didn’t stop them taking a trip to Murwillumbah and the hinterland last Friday however. About 60 bikers stopped at the driver reviver at Yelgun, where Velocette veteran of 55 years Bryan Dawes, took the opportunity to warm up with a cuppa and cake served by the Lions ladies Val Armstrong and Lyn Fitzgerald. Bryan said that despite his protective gear, he was still wet underneath but the run was worth it.

Events policy sparks community debate Hans Lovejoy

Council’s events policy was passed last Thursday, and with it the future framework for the Shire’s festival management and size was outlined. The policy’s main points include a limit to 17,500 people per day, with two major music festivals per year.

Right balance: CFFS Coalition For Festival Sanity’s (CFFS) Mac Nicolson told The Echo, ‘We believe it is a very constructive step towards defining our community’s wishes in regards to the frequency, size and nature of events and festivals to be held within Byron Shire.’

CFFS represents over 30 progress associations, community and environment groups in the Tweed and Byron region. Mr Nicolson added that it finds the right balance between encouraging the local music and arts industry, while protecting the community, its infrastructure, amenities and environment from the excesses of too

many major, high impact festivals. ‘We applaud council for its careful and considered vote on the issue. ‘We believe that the policy finds the right balance between encouraging the local music and arts industry, while protecting the community, its infrastructure, amenities and

Best event in Australia? It’s Blues Fest

environment. ‘We applaud council for its careful and considered vote on the issue.’

No vision, cultural context says Artscape But what of smaller events? Artscape’s Byron Bay foreshore exhibition this year was no doubt a success. How does this policy affect them? Artscape’s Merran Morrison told The Echo, ‘Other than 16,500 people per day, two major music festivals per year, and no cruelty to animals, there is not much the policy is really saying. ‘There is no overarching vision, no cultural context or aspiration established.’ Ms Morrison also claims it

isn’t the role of council policy to tell event organisers they have to have effective and efficient resources allocated to the event. ‘What community events ever do?’, she says. ‘Does this mean we won’t be given approval because a council officer doesn’t think we can either a) raise the money (for which one needs an approval first!) or b) pull it off on a shoe string? ‘Council’s decision not to recommend a part time or full time events officer is also short sighted, according to Ms Morrison. ‘It took 18 months to finally get an approval to stage Artscape Biennial at Clarkes Beach reserve, and I am convinced that had there been a dedicated officer to deal with

our application it would have taken less than half the time and the savings of staff time would have been considerable. ‘There was so much time wasting by a variety of staff as they invented our approval process as it unfolded. ‘Byron Council is constantly hampered by a lack of specialised staff.’

Blues Fest granted 11 years in Tyagarah The Blues Festival was approved by Council to have its event in Tyagarah for the next eleven years. At the time of going to press, Splendour In The Grass management had not returned calls for comment over the policy.

The police, apparently, plus a few neighbours surrounding the streets of Byron’s CBD precinct. A trial of amplified busking in Byron Bay was approved by council this week, however the NSW Police Force came out against such a trial.

In a document to Council, Acting Inspector Doug Conners said it would increase anti-social behaviour, noise, obstruction and cause potentially anti-social and violent behaviour due to intoxicated onlookers. ‘The policy approves of busking until 12am, which is the most significant issue in relation to street related violence.’

However musician David Ades, a regular street performer, told The Echo, ‘I have never witnessed any arrests, or anti -social behaviour while busking. We provide free entertainment for the tourists, young people and families. It’s an opportunity to see live music up close on the street, away from licensed premises.’

Bangalow’s new pool on drawing board

Who wants to stop the music? Hans Lovejoy

Byron Bay’s Blues Festival has been named as Australian Event of the Year, as well as picking up the award for Best Cultural/Arts Event. The announcement was made at the Australian Event Awards, held in Sydney last Thursday. Director Peter Noble told The Echo he was taken by surprise. ‘They had us up the back of the auditorium, and we never expected to win. ‘It’s such a thrill,’ he said. ‘Of course I am very proud of all our team. It recognises the hard work put in by all.’ T h e a n nu a l f e s t i v a l trumped hundreds of entries vying for the prestigious title. ‘I can’t believe a small organisation such as ours beat Microsoft, WOMADelaide, Sydney’s FIFA, The Australian Tennis Open 2010 and

New plans for the much-anticipated Bangalow Pool will be released this week, according the Bangalow Pool Trust (BPT). 'We have been working on this project for 14 years now and over this time the plans have changed several times,' said BPT president Peta Heeson, 'but we now feel we have the right combination of

ideas which will be right for Bangalow.' In July, local architect Dominic Finlay-Jones came on board to build upon the hard work already completed. 'Our proposal to the Trust was to place an outdoor heated pool within a large recreational park so that the pool becomes integrated into the sports precinct, which is already a hub

for the community,' he said. Dominic said the facility would include a 25m 8-lane outdoor swimming pool, a shaded kids’ pool (both passively heated in the cooler months), a large multi-purpose space, a crèche and a café. The community is encouraged to view the proposed pool online at bangalowpool. com.au.

A short film featuring ‘Ollie The Apprentice’ was aired at the opening of the revamped Byron Regional College last Wednesday. Ollie’s journey through the construction took the viewer onto the building site to highlight the many eco friendly additions which are also mentioned on several plaques adorning the walls of the studios and offices. Tricia Shantz who was the Secretary of Byron Adult Education for 14 years, gave a brief history of adult education in the Byron Shire, saying that the original grant from the

Grail Quest

Introduction to Grail Quest (an 8-week course) which is the opening term of the two year parttime foundation course.

...a journey into the Spiritual Science of Rudolf Steiner...

GRAIL QUEST offers a modern form of adult education based on the work of Rudolf Steiner. Through a deepened understanding of the inner workings of the world and ourselves, inner development and soul transformation are brought about. This in turn leads to an enhanced capacity to transform the outer world. The course consists of lectures, discussions and workshops which are expanded through artistic experiences in music, painting, sculpture, story telling, speech, drama, craft and the new art of eurythmy. No previous artistic experience is necessary. The emphasis of the course is away from competition and is focused on individual growth. The course aims to teach through the heart, hand and mind and to bring our efforts to fruition through love of the deed. GRAIL QUEST is also the prerequisite for the Steiner Teacher Training programme.

R U OK: supporting mental health and wellbeing for youth Eve Jeffery

Our children are dying and something needs to be done to stop it. Between youth suicide and fatalities caused of high risk behaviour, the instances of the death of Australia’s youth are growing at an alarming rate, and a group of local parents, friends and the youth themselves are working to make a change. The Headspace for Mullumbimby action group is a team of concerned people who are alarmed by the high incidence of youth fatalities and who feel that the youth of our community, and the community at large, are traumatised with

grief at the loss of so many of their friends and children. Headspace was established and funded by the the federal government in 2006, and is governed by the National Youth Mental Health Foundation. The aim is to provide mental health and well being support, information and services to young people and their families across the country Thirty Headspace centres have been established nationally so far, with a further 10 centres allocated last week. It’s part of an ongoing national program to the cities and regional centres of Australia, and the Mullum group would like to see the program

run in this area. To raise awareness of the issue, the local group had a stall last Thursday in Burrungbar street for the 2010 national R U OK? Day, an event which is effective because it is a way of approaching mental health in a positive way. Volunteers offered information, support and referrals as well receiving support from the community for a Headspace for Mullumbimby. To join the Mullumbimby Action Group contact Karen Hodder on 6684 6407 or email: karen_hodder@ bigpond.com. For information or support call Lifeline on 1311 14 or check out www.headspace.org.au.

A world class sustainable event venue for the Byron Shire The proposal for a permanent sustainable cultural event venue on North Byron Parklands’ 660 acre site at Yelgun is now on public exhibition with the NSW Department of Planning. s

Your supportive submission will make all the difference to the success of the proposal.

s

The event usage proposed is in grazed pasturelands covering less than 50% of the site, leaving the majority for habitat use and bush regeneration.

s

Approval has been sought for up to 20 days of events each year: - Minor events – less than 300 patrons – no daily limits proposed - Small events – 300 to 3,000 patrons – no more than 4 event days per year - Moderate events – 3000 – 10,000 patrons – no more than 4 event days per year - Major events –10,000 – 35,000* patrons – no more than 12 event days per year. Splendour in the Grass would occupy 3 of these 12 days. It would take many years to build to this capacity. One or two major events would be held in the first year. * Incremental capacity increases from 35,000 would only be sought based on achieving stringent performance criteria covering a range of aspects such as traffic, noise, ecology etc. Extensive studies have shown that a manageable long term upper limit of patrons for a major event is 50,000. A later stage proposes a conference centre with a capacity of up to 180 people, a cultural centre covering indigenous and non-indigenous history from the immediate area, a depot and office for a rainforest restoration team and a nursery for rainforest and bush tucker plants.

s

The application details extensive commitments to avoid where possible or otherwise mitigate impacts upon the residential amenity of those living around the site. Please see our website.

North Byron Parklands will, when operating at capacity: s

Distribute over $100,000.00 annually to local community groups through the North Byron Parklands Community Grants Program. The Program will commence with the first major event held.

s

Inject $192.6 million (total multiplier effect) into the economy annually (RPS Group, 2010).

s

Create 210 full time equivalent jobs (RPS Group, 2010).

We value your support The NSW Department of Planning takes individual submissions via electronic submission or posted letter seriously. To support the proposal please go to our website and take five minutes to write a submission.

‘It’s amazing that the amount of news that happens in the world every day always just exactly fits the newspaper.’ – Jerry Seinfield

Are the big festivals in Byron generous philanthropic friendly giants or self serving greedy goliaths suckling at Byron’s resources? The North Byron Parklands proposal – where Splendour In The Grass wants to be – went on public exhibition on Thursday October 7, and has pro-

voked debate over its capacity to be environmentally sensitive on the grounds it has chosen to call home. The Coalition For Festival Sanity’s (CFFS) Mac Nicolson told The Echo the DA put forward by the Spendour in The Grass is currently unworkable. ‘It will transform the whole Shire into a permanent nightmare of partying, binge drinking and drug taking, threatening the fragile ecosystem of the adjacent high conservation area of the Billinudgel nature reserve and taxing to the extreme our local infrastructure and amenities. ‘We view the proposal as a massive over-development that seeks permission to hold four mega festivals of unlimited size per year plus another four of up to 10,000 patrons and an unlimited number of smaller events such as doof parties.

Contrary to ill informed media reports we have never sought to have the Splendor In The Grass Festival leave Byron. ‘What they are proposing, however, and the manner in which they have operated, ie seeking approval from the State Government, we find no alternative but to strenuously oppose the development and encourage all within the community and all those visitors and families who love Byron to lodge submissions opposing this development. ‘This is in stark contrast to the much appreciated Blues Festival who have sought permission from the local authorities and engaged with the local community at every step in order to expand and grow their festival and who, subsequently, have broad community support and respect.’ However peak tourism body

Northern Rivers Tourism (NRT) has asked the public to write submissions of support to the NSW Department of Planning. ‘The Department takes individual submissions via email or posted letter seriously,’ NRT’s Russell Mills said. ‘A report by International consultancy firm RPS Group states that North Byron Parklands, operating at its full potential, will inject $192.6 million annually (total multiplier effect) into the region and will create 210 full time equivalent jobs.’ He also added ‘The event usage proposed is in grazed pasturelands covering less than 50 per cent of the overall site, leaving the majority of the site for habitat use and bush regeneration.’ At the time of going to press, Splendour In The Grass management had not returned calls for comment.

‘We recorded locally at Panoramix Studios and mixed it at Rocking Horse.’ She added the album also features percussionist Daniel Gonzalez from Tijuana Cartel and is expected to be released around Christmas. ‘Crowd funding’ is a platform to present artistic ideas and ask for funding via the internet.

Farewell Pete Jackson – community stalwart Byron Bay lost a very special community member last Tuesday. Pete Jackson, 50, passed away around 8:30 Wednesday morning in the Lismore Hospital. He was taken suddenly to the hospital the night before. Pete was a very familiar face around the Byron Community Centre and the Byron markets. He undertook various roles through the Community Centre and was a smiling happy face behind the bar at Byron theatre shows. He helped people to their seats as a theatre usher, and on ocassion was a very capable MC for shows in the theatre. At the Byron markets he was essential to the team as he chatted his way around the market

collecting stall holder fees. Pete was also the kind and upbeat manager for the Saturday Community Bazaar at the Centre, and was always ready to provide help and assistance and a much needed cup of tea. Pete will be sadly missed by everyone who knew him. He was a happy guy who engaged fully in life, and worked at Paradise FM, did voice overs for BAY-FM, and acted with groups such as Baywrite. He even did some TV work, including with Prime. A funeral service for Pete was held Friday in Ballina. Following the service family members and friends held a special gathering on the verandah at the Byron Community Centre in his honour.

There is a part in all of us that imagines when it is our time to die, we’d like to go out doing something we love. Tragically young film maker Anthony Fricker did just that August 2, 2009, leaving unfulfilled dreams and loved ones behind. During the filming of a downhill sequence on the Burringbar Ranges for his film Skate Australia, Anthony had a collision with a fellow skater and did not recover from his injuries. The film was still at a very early stage of post production when Anthony died and there were only two people with

Skate Australia documents a road-trip of discovery into this rapidly emerging and varying sport, covering all styles of long boarding: slalom, sliding, dancing and downhill. After skating beaches, mountains and big cities of Australia’s east coast the film comes to a climax in Bathurst and the biggest downhill skating event in Australian history, the World Championship in Downhill Skateboarding. Skateboarders dressed in full face helmets and leather suits, racing down Mt Panorama at 100km an hour, looking more like super V8 cars than skateboarders and to he honest, some of the footage is just

plain hectic. Just days before Anthony passed away, he recorded a scripted narration, originally to be used as a rough guideline through the editing process. The fact that it was not the official recording made it a perfect voiceover due to its relaxed and natural feel. There are not many documentaries that have pulled off a “one take” voice-over for a 35 minute long documentary. Skate Australia will be premiered next Saturday at the Lounge Cinema in Byron Bay, from 7pm. For more information visit the website: www.skateaustralia. com.au.

enough knowledge of the project to finish it – Swedish twin brothers Jonatan and Sebastian Lundmark from Dampling Productions. Jonatan and Sebastian had been working closely with Anthony. Three weeks after Anthony’s funeral they committed to the challenge of completing the production and dedicated a whole year to finishing Skate Australia for their beloved and greatly missed friend. The film is based on the simple idea of traveling the country with a group of skaters and their long boards, who within weeks were rolling with extreme downhill skaters from all over the world.

Garden winner tackles acidic soils

Bruce Dickson, winner of the Spring Garden competition Story & photo Eve Jeffery

The Ocean Shores and District Garden Club recently held their Spring Garden competition. As the competition covers the entire 2483 postcode, there were a few entries from Brunswick Heads this year with two of the prize winners coming from the town. There were a lot of new en-

tries among the 38 who competed, but first place went to Bruce Dickson and Daryl Sullivan of Ocean Shores. Their beautiful Pacific Resort Style garden has even been opened in the past to the Open Gardens Scheme of Australia. Bruce said that one of the challenges of the garden was getting used to the different soil.

‘We come from Adelaide where the soil is alkaline,’ he said. ‘The soil here is acidic. This block had been half levelled during the development of of Ocean Shores so there was only a small amount of top soil, then rock, rocks and more rocks.’ The garden club welcomes new members and can be contacted on 6680 5175.

A dangerous dip in the Basin Volume 25 #19

October 12, 2010

La Niña and El Niño partnership complete Despite the flooding here it’s not raining in the Amazon. It should be, according to the BBC, ‘A dry spell caused by high temperatures and reduced rainfall has diminished the Amazon river in Peru to its lowest level in 40 years, and is causing severe economic disruption throughout the country.’ It’s called a La Niña, and I heard it first from orchid enthusiast Jay at the Poinciana cafe in Mullum. He described the trend as opposite to the El Niño, and said we can expect further inclement weather because of it. Indeed El Niño and now La Niña affect both Australia and South America – causing opposite weather patterns across the globe. Like the degradation of the Murray Darling, the state of Peru’s rivers now threaten that country’s economy. The AFP reports ‘The low water levels have stranded several boats and suspended shipping services, closing several ports and harbours in Peru, which rely on the river for transport.’ No doubt industry will overcome short term geographic and technical obstacles, but the question remains: are we experiencing weather shifts due to human activity, or is this just another longer term pattern of the planet’s climate cycle? An incredibly toxic sludge from Hungary now threatens the Danube river, due to bauxite (aluminium) mining. It begs the question – how well equipped are Australian bauxite mines to respond to flooding? And what of uranium mining, now that the La Niña weather pattern threatens this continent? Environmentalist David Suzuki will be in Byron Bay at the end of the month, and although he doesn’t claim to have all the answers, he sure is a good person to ask. Elders such as Suzuki bring reason and wisdom to these debates, and their opinions are of great value to humanity’s quest to be better managers of the planet’s finite resources. Perhaps it’s not the greatest timing from Gillard for water restrictions – apparently production of the fourth Mad Max movie has been suspended due to the unseasonable green pastures of the film’s location in Broken Hill.

In the right headspace Among many other things, October is Mental Health Month in NSW. The theme is ‘Good Friends Help Us Bounce Back’ and puts the emphasis on the community to help build resilience. We certainly need resilience among young local people having to face a series of tragedies, including the suicide of their friends. To that end, concerned locals are pushing for a headspace support centre in the style of the national movement www.headspace.org.au. Already they have established a Facebook Cause ‘Support Headspace for Mullumbimby’ to lobby the federal mental health minister for a centre. The more funding for youth outreach services the better. Early intervention in the area of mental health is a winner on all levels. To join the Mullumbimby Action Group contact Karen Hodder on 6684 6407 or email karen_hodder@bigpond.com. Michael McDonald

t is now more than three and a half years since John Howard and his newly appointed minister for Water and the Environment, Malcolm Turnbull, promised to fix up the Murray-Darling Basin with a great big $10 billion dollar splash. The figure, and indeed the plan, were apparently plucked out of the air; they came as a complete surprise to Treasury, the Finance Department and even to Howard’s cabinet, but they produced spectacular headlines at the start of an election year. Unfortunately that was about all they produced; the state premiers in Queensland and Victoria simply refused to sign up to a scheme which, they correctly foresaw, would involve their own irrigators losing out. And in its first term Kevin Rudd’s government, beset by the Global Financial Crisis and the wider issue of climate change, didn’t do much better. Penny Wong did manage to spend one and a half billion dollars buying back some 700 gigalitres from willing sellers, but until the recent rains came the health of the rivers continued to worsen. The problem was obvious; human activity was taking too much water out of them. The solution, therefore, was to curtail the human activity, but this involved political pain which none of the six governments concerned – one federal, four state and one territory – was prepared to suffer. Thus it was left to the Murray Darling Basin Authority to come up with a hard sciencebased analysis of just what the options were. Business as usual was not one of them; if the rivers continued to deteriorate at the present rate, within a couple of

decades the local environment would break down altogether and human activity would not only be curtailed but would become altogether unviable. But going back to the pristine natural state wasn’t on either; this would require the return of some 7000 extra gigalitres at a current cost of $2.3 million each. At present just $3.1 billion is budgeted for the next three years. And quite apart from the

erage at a cost of around $7 billion, which would be spent on buying back water and improving infrastructure. A much better result would be achieved by a cut of 37 per cent at a cost of over $9 billion, but this would involve more dislocation and would therefore be harder to sell. Even the lower figure would result in the loss of about $800 million a year in production and about 800 jobs.

If the rivers continued to deteriorate at the present rate, human activity would not only be curtailed but would become altogether unviable. by Mungo MacCallum money, taking back that quantity would wreck most of the agricultural industries which are the basin’s economic raison d’etre. Clearly a compromise had to be found, but even so it was always going to be a controversial one: thus the Authority’s report was not released until after the election. And even now, the report makes it clear that it is only floating ideas for consideration by all the interested parties: the final decision will have to be made by governments after extensive consultation and explanation. However, its conclusions are clear: to get the system working to the extent that the Murray flows through to the sea for a reasonable amount of the time, an absolute minimum of 3,000 extra gigalitres will be needed. This would involve cutting existing allocations across the entire area of the catchment by about 27 per cent on av-

The irrigators claim these latter figures are a drastic underestimate: the National Farmers Federation put the job losses at ten times as high. And obviously the high water users like rice and cotton growers would be hit hard. It could, of course, be argued that such crops should never have been grown in Australian conditions in the first place, but there are still a lot of workers – and votes – involved. The redoubtable Barnaby Joyce came to a predictable conclusion: ‘It’s not going out on a limb to say that if you take 45 per cent from an area, the area for all intents and purposes is decimated.’ Well actually it’s worse than that; decimation would mean a loss of just ten per cent. But Barnaby was never very good at arithmetic. The electoral arithmetic is actually quite straightforward; almost the whole basin is Liberal or National Party territory, so in purely political terms a

federal Labor government has little to lose by going in fast and hard. But in a broader social context the choices are more complex. Obviously the environment is a precious and irreplaceable resource. But the rural lifestyle of some of the small farmers and irrigators, especially in the horticultural areas, is also a valuable national asset. The economic rationalists may deride it as wasteful and uncompetitive, and no doubt in the cold hard terms of the global economy they are right. But that does not mean that it is not worth preserving. Faced with a similar dilemma many years ago, France made what is usually seen as the irrational choice: it used high tariffs and subsidies to prop up the regional lifestyle of its small farmers. The free traders screamed with indignation, but the fact is that the French countryside remains one of the most desirable destinations in the world: the same well-paid economists who insist that they loathe the very basis of its existence queue to sample the delights of its local cuisine and culture. The Murray Darling basin is not just Australia’s major food bowl, and an important economic resource in its own right; it is also one of the most varied and interesting parts of the country. Restoring it to the environmental paradise of the years before white settlement might be the preferred solution of the extreme greens, but it would involve losses well beyond the immediate disruption of the present generation. Julia Gillard has promised that she will not shrink from the hard decisions. They won’t come much harder than the one she will have to make on the Murray Darling Basin.

Time to introduce park and ride Some things in life are just wrong – Julie Bishop’s eyes, the phrase ‘Places of interest in Lismore’ and traffic gridlock in Byron. When the rest of Australia wakes up and moves to this area, ‘Carpark Full’ will be a permanent addition to the ‘Welcome To Byron Bay’ sign. Recently stuck in Ewingsdale Road holiday traffic sorely tested my belief in life being the journey rather than the destination and got me thinking (again) about Byron’s traffic dilemma. Sadly, I don’t have all the answers (surprising, I know), but I am curious as to why the discussion seems to have slipped off the radar. A recent article in the SMH extolling the virtues of Amsterdam’s conversion to the bicycle had Byron Bay written all over it. Thirty years ago, when the writing was on the dyke wall, Dutch authorities began designing infrastructure around the bicycle rather than the car.

Apparently 57 per cent of all Amsterdam’s inner-city traffic movement is now via bicycle. The system is so safe, helmets aren’t necessary. Meanwhile, our Aussie visionaries remain busy trying to come up with a plural for sheep. The most favoured approach to the traffic gridlock in Byron focuses on the word ‘bypass’. A true bypass would bypass the town but the stats tell us 83 per cent of motorists on Ewingsdale Road are destined for Byron, not Suffolk Park and not Ballina. Nobody knows where Suffolk Park is and nobody wants to know where Ballina is. The other bypass, the one being promoted, directs incoming traffic down Butler Street to then re-enter Jonson Street opposite Marvell Street, which is like implanting a second oesophagus to cure constipation. When cities around the globe are banishing vehicular traffic

from their CBDs, why does Byron insist on remaining in the dark ages? Didn’t we manifest our existence in this paradise to transcend this sort of shit? Why has the ‘Park and Ride’ approach, proposed by the likes of our Mayor, not been given the same consideration as a ‘bypass’? The system, comprising perimeter parking and an efficient public transport system, has worked for years in ski villages like Mount Hotham and Falls Creek. Is Byron’s low snowfall the problem? We could tell the Queenslanders they’re not able to drive their Beamers to the Beachy because the streets are crotch deep in pixie dust only the enlightened can see. The perfect Byron commuter hub is currently under construction. Known as ‘The Sportsfields’, this area could accommodate all vehicles arriving from the north. A fleet of solar powered, open-sided,

psychedelic stretch jeeps could transport these visitors, and their luggage, anywhere from Sunrise to Suffolk. Branded as ‘Fast Truck$’ and funded by a consortium comprising developers, greedy landlords, publicans and a state government when we get one, these vehicles, unique to Byron, could provide everything from Rum to Rescue Remedy, ensuring any delays in traffic flow would almost be welcomed. Botox could be provided for the Gold Coasters so they at least look happy on public transport. Should delays still occur, overhead signs could explain why: ‘Mercury in Retrograde – Go Slow’. It might not be any of the above that solves the problem, but whatever does, I hope it’s instrumental in reclaiming the old Byron. C’mon you visionaries – on your bikes!

mobile phone base station. Comprehensive reviews of over 2500 research publications, including more than 600 studies specifically on mobile phones and base stations, by governments and health authorities continue, without exception, to find there is no substantiated scientific evidence of health effects. In fact, the World Health Organisation’s fact sheet states: ‘Considering the very low exposure levels and research results collected to date, there is no convincing scientific evidence that the weak RF signals from base stations and wireless networks cause adverse health effects.’ Also, a recent independent review of all the science on base stations and health by the Irish Government Expert Group found: ‘There is no scientific basis for, or evidence of, adverse health effects affecting either children or adults as a result of their exposure to RF fields from phone masts. This applies irrespective of the location of the phone mast.’ Furthermore, the Irish Gov-

ernment Expert Group said: ‘The public can have legitimate concerns over the physical appearance of such masts in their neighbourhood. It is also true that some will be worried about the possible effects the mast may have on the health of their family, but the scientific evidence does not support their concerns.’ A recent audit of base stations across Australia by the Federal Department of Health found base stations, even those expected to have the highest levels, emit less than 0.001 per cent of the safety standard, or 100,000 times below the standard. However, the mobile phone industry acknowledges that some people are genuinely concerned and we are committed to addressing these concerns responsibly through active community and local government consultation.

Almost a perfect day – game of golf at Byron Bay with my husband, then a most delicious seafood dinner near the beach. Feeling happy, relaxed and in holiday mode, I was in the mood for a treat – a single glass of scotch whisky to slowly sip and gaze into the night sky, savour my celtic ancestry and memories of my dear dad. After three pubs refused point blank to sell me ‘a shot’ citing a local hotels agreement, I gave up. On the way home, we encountered a group of intoxicated lads weaving all over the footpath, barely able to stand.

Council chambers in Mullumbimby during the occupation by so called nutters etc as described on your front page article of September 28, I would like to say that I did not have a hidden agenda and that my mental status is not that of a nutter nor am I a layabout putting down persons I have no connection with. I am not racist or arrogant towards my fellow human beings and I do have respect for the people who occupied this land before the British invasion but my IQ is intact, my motivations are honorable, my search for answers has covered many corners of the globe and exposed me to people of many experiences and opinions. All the time I am conscious of keeping an open mind that others have their story – be cautious not to judge uninformed, last but not least be prepared to learn always. I would like to finish my story by saying that I appreciate the opportunity for listening to the people of the park and the Council at Byron for allowing them the space to voice their stories and motivations.

New health service in Bay I am writing on behalf of the Byron Community Centre to inform the community that we have welcomed the Bullinah Aboriginal Health Service to the Fletcher Street Cottage, 18 Fletcher Street, Byron Bay. We enjoyed a welcome to country from Aunty Dulcie from the Arakwal People and Aunty Bertha and Aunty Nancy from the Bundjalung People. It was a happy gathering to celebrate a milestone for the Bullinah Health Service in setting up this clinic in Byron Bay. Bullinah Aboriginal Health Service was established to meet the health needs of coastal in-

digenous communities in a culturally appropriate way. It offers a wide range of services from education and counselling to GP clinics and the main office is located in Ballina. It was established two and a half years ago, and also has a clinic on Cabbage Tree Island. The Bullinah Health Service will operate at the Cottage every Wednesday from 10am till 2pm. If you want to see the doctor just come in to the Cottage and bring your Medicare Card with you. The team involved in the Bullinah Aboriginal Health

Service is Dr Jodi Stevenson GP, Mark Moore CEO, Emma Walk, practice manager, and Barry Phyball, health worker. If you have any enquries about this service or any of the other services that are offered at the Cottage please call the manager Katie Thompson on 6685 5959 10am till 4pm Monday to Friday. The Fletcher Street Cottage is supported and managed by the Salvation Army, The Byron Community Centre, The St Vincent De Paul Society and Byron Shire Council.

Principles’. Moreover it could provide a means by which a community consensus, so essential to success, could be developed. This is important when the possible scale of the West Byron project is considered – perhaps land for between 1,000 to 1,400 dwellings might be created. By way of comparison, Byron Shire had 11,942 occupied private dwellings on Census night 2006. Bangalow had 519, Mullumbimby 1,230 and Byron Bay itself had 2,250. West Byron could therefore be conceived as a completely new village in the Shire. How key issues such as housing diversity and affordability, local shops, community and education facilities, services infrastructure, vehicular traffic, pedestrian and cycle movement, employment opportunities and open spaces (to name a few) are to be integrated and balanced with site’s natural assets, cultural history and environmental imperatives needs to be spelt out. This could lead to a statement on West Byron’s future position in the northern NSW housing market. An understandable, distinctive, believ-

able and relevant positioning would demonstrate that the landowners are truly focused on the desires, dreams and needs of the Byron market. And it is important the landowners are proactive in defining their position so the community does not draw the conclusion that West Byron will be another ‘cookie cutter’ subdivision with built form patterns and homogenous housing forms typical of those produced by unimaginative developers incapable of innovation and only interested in short-term gain. A logical conclusion to the Vision Statement might be some clues on how different landowner needs are to be equitably accommodated, managed and resolved. This is important as the value of West Byron can be significantly enhanced if the development process demonstrates the seamless, orderly and coherent urban experience typical of that produced by a focused and single minded master developer. A well-considered structure could be a model for other developments in an environment where the pressure for more

West Byron vision It is mildly comforting to see the Byron Bay West landowners are prepared to engage so openly with the community and that most are Byron Shire locals (Echo, October 5). Hopefully their sensitivity to the Byron community, and the Shire’s unique environment and identity, will (at least) balance their economic objectives and simple adherence to the letter and spirit of the relevant legislation and policies. However, it seems their present focus is just on process, a box ticking exercise to meet the Department of Planning’s formal Study Requirements. What would be useful, even at this early stage, is for the landowners to articulate a coherent and compelling Vision for the site. This would provide the basis for measuring how well the planning process meets a set of objectives more precise than the current ‘Five

One rule for the big boys and another for the rest Anyone expecting a benign human scale shop development on the Woolworths site should take a stroll down Station Street. It is something of a shock to come into the shadow of grim grey walls looming above even the tall tree line. At the moment it looks as though sections of the Berlin Wall have been recycled. They are as imposing as those of a high tech prison. Spare a thought perhaps for residents in both Station Street and Prince Street for their loss in such brutal fashion of sky and horizon. I wonder how many residents confronted by these walls (fenced-in walls, so no Berlin Wall graffiti) are in favour of Woolworths coming to town. Perhaps those who are in favour, together with Woolworths executives, the Commissioner of the Land and Environment Court, Planning Minister Frank Sartor and others responsible would care

integrated and balanced neighbourhoods and better urban outcomes is increasing. The details of a Vision can be developed at the Master Planning stage but the principles can, and should, be clearly spelt out now. All this requires leadership. It will not come from the Department of Planning or Council as neither has the essential commercial and urban visioning skills required to influence a relatively complex process. Relatively inflexible thinking and prescriptive controls, rather than creative flexibility and market responsiveness, have been the inevitable outcomes of government involvement. But leadership is not a right, it has to be earned. Whether the West Byron landowners will earn accolades from leading a respected and commercially successful delivery process remains to be seen.

Festival compromises The misleading comments made by Northern Rivers Tourism Tourism CEO Russel Mills regarding Byron Shire Council’s Festivals Policy and it’s ‘non-consultative and overly restrictive approach to major events’ are an insult to our hard working community and need to be corrected. There has been considerable consultation with the community and industry over many years, and compromises have been made by the community to accommodate the industry’s needs, despite the widespread concerns about the impact on the community and environment by some of the large events.

Mullumbimby Q The Saturday Star has been more than generous with its coverage of the anti-Woolworths campaign on its front page; its tone, however, was less so. Is this journalism in The Star or is it astrological divination? Where on earth do they find their information? When referring to the antiWoolworths campaigners, does the unnamed reporter refer to the 1,300 or so signatories of letters of objection sent to the Department of Planning, Mullumbimby Forum or MCAN? Should the latter be the case, let me set the record straight. Naturally our very first step, years

moved to Woodford is also untrue. After the community took the organisers to the Land and Environment Court, and won, they lodged their DA for festivals at Yelgun with the state government. Their DA is currently on exhibition and people are now able make submissions. It’s not hard to understand why people have little faith in bureaucrats or politicians when they make such outrageous comments which have no relation to the truth. Mr Mills also talks about the Repco Rally moving to Coffs Harbour, butfails to mention the genuine concerns and opposition in the community about the way that event was forced them. He also fails to mention the millions (we’re not allowed to know how much) of taxpayer funds allocated to the event by the state government or the legislation rushed through by the state government to override existing laws to accomodate the rally. That’s obviously Mr Mills’s idea of community consultation. But it’s the outraged community which has been roundly cricised by Mr Mills and their state MP Thomas George, not the actions of the state government. Apart from the social and environmental impacts tourism and large events have had on our community for many years, it’s really not very smart to be putting all our economic eggs in such a fragile basket. These events, and tourism generally, rely on good weather and cheap oil to thrive, and as we’re seeing, our climate is changing fast and the supply of cheap oil may be coming to an end. We must diversify and encourage long term, sustainable industries which can

Uncle Harry fortuitously arrived under his own steam and was not ‘enlisted’. That being said, I thoroughly enjoyed the down-to-earth presence of the occupying mob, their audacity to set up a drop-in centre in the middle of town and their challenge to Woolworths. Furthermore, I applauded the tolerance of Byron Shire Council in allowing them their presence and space to have their voices heard. The Indigenous flag, the sacred fire and their hospitality was a pleasure to experience and made a harmonious contrast to the military zone set up by Woolworths across the road. Coincidentally, the Stan Robinson Park was also home to the statue of Nick Shand who founded The Echo in reprovide our young people with permanent, secure, well paid employment, rather than the seasonal, casual, insecure, low paid jobs provided by tourism and festivals. Developers and event organisers who choose to go down the route of ignoring the concerns of the community and the Land and Environment Court and take their DA to the state government to be approved under their dodgy Part 3A planning laws should not be surprised if their developments/events are not warmly welcomed by the community.

sponse to issues of social justice. Uncle Harry (legitimate or not) stood for social justice. MCAN stands for social justice. The Star assures us that the Woolworths development is ‘not illegal’. But is it just?

Q When it come to compliance in the Byron Shire there is one rule for the big boys and another for the punters. For months now Woolworths’ construction site’s minimal to non-existent erosion and sediment control measures result in considerable amounts of sediment polluting the Brunswick River. By Byron Shire Council’s (BSC) own Sediment and Erosion Control Guidelines for Developers and Builders, Woolworths’ sediment control measures are surely way short of adequate or compliant.

This concern led to the Mullum Community Action Network lodging a complaint with BSC. Following that complaint we received a report from Woolworth’s private certifying authority BW Consulting. BW reported all was just fine with their client’s activities. BW Consulting even had the audacity to blame the water from upstream of the building site for the problems created by Woolworths’ massive excavation. To top it off they made the ludicrous claim that ‘We confirm that the water quality leaving the site is probably better then when it arrives overland.’ The consultant obviously did not visit the site when it was raining. In wet weather only a proportion of the muddy water running off the site and road works flows through the socalled geofabric detention basin. Most of the site and the disturbed road verge has

remained as bare earth for months now with no form of stabilisation or revegetation. How come BSC officers have not hit Woolworths with on the spot fines for what has been totally inadequate for months? How come small local builders are fined for piles of sand or rubbish without detention fences, materials encroaching on the public road verge, and for roadways and drains not clean and swept? How come BSC’s General Manager can justify fining a resident for a couple of cycads growing out front of their house while not issuing an onthe-spot fine to Woolworths’ builder when, 200m from his office, gross volumes of muddy water flow to the Brunswick River when it rains? Why is it that BSC pursues the ‘little fish’ to the point of ridiculous and lets the ‘big ones’ go free?

the past two years our homes and streets are being traumatised. Some DAs passed by the local council are not necessarily certified by the local council which means they have little or no control over the builders’ practices. Some developments are being left without safety fences or protection from un-

finished work being washed away into the streets. Above my property, both front and back, the roads and driveways of the new developments are not sealed. The heavy rains have washed mud and loose gravel onto the roads, blocking the drains, covering neighbours’ lawns, flooding

the roads and filling any uncovered sewer pipes. This did not happen before all the trees were cut down. Should the planned development of the New Byron Bay urban development go ahead, then we of the township would be very grateful if the council

Load of bullocks Diana Gall’s letter in last weeks Echo is a great insight into the very unfortunate governance situation that the residents of NSW now find themselves in. Obviously concerned by the many letters to the editor, info drops, organised town rallies and newspaper reports about the state government’s Draft Plans of Management for the Brunswick Heads Foreshore parklands, Dianne contacted the author of the plan for clarification and explanation. After a phone conversation with Derek Sinclair from Integrated Site Design, the private contractor for the NSW Land and Property Management Authority who developed these plans, she is now convinced that all is fine for Brunswick and is now even recommending that

anyone, like herself who is concerned, should contact Derek to put their mind at ease. To quote Diana, ‘it is much safer to speak with the people who have most of the responsibility for this planning rather than solely rely on other people’s interpretation of the situation’. This morning I attended the Byron Shire Council meeting to observe our local councillors unanimously rescind on a previous agreement with the LPMA concerning the Brunswick Foreshore Parklands. It became obvious to the councillors that ‘those responsible for the planning’, the LPMA, had in fact deceived Byron Shire Council with misinformation and incorrect maps to try and gain control of public Crown Land and rezoned it so it could be turned into private tourist resorts. Luckily, some ‘other people’s interpretation of the situation’, a group of suspicious locals, alerted Council to the real intentions of the LPMA, its failure to observe proper regulations and notifications and the huge negative implications this could have on the town and its residents. Councilors even apologised to the residents for initially being fooled by the LPMA into believing their cleverly disguised proposal. I really hate to burst Diana’s bubble, but the ISD plans of Management for Brunswick Heads will be a complete nightmare for the residents. Diana says in her letter that Derek Sin-

Compliance under the microscope Preparing a court case is stressful, time-consuming and expensive but in my coming stoush with Council’s compliance section there are certain things I’m looking forward to. Firstly I’ll get to cross-examine David Murray, undoubtedly the least diplomatic (shall we say) of Council’s field officers. I look forward, for example, to hearing his reasons for bringing a posse of cops along during the August 09 inspection of my property. Secondly I will subpoena Jan Barham and Ross Tucker to belatedly get some reasons why they voted the way they did and why they resorted to procedural trickery to get their desired result, trickery which resulted in utter denial of my rights. The main issue in the case will not be whether the dwell-

ings on my property are illegal (which is mostly a foregone conclusion) but whether in seeking to close them down the Council acted in good faith. This is a critical issue because Council claims that in some cases it has the discretion to look the other way and allow illegal dwellings to continue in operation. This is fact what Council did on my property in 2003; they inspected, took photographs, made measurements etc and prepared a report which concluded that there were no problems they needed to address. Accordingly Council faces the hurdle of explaining what has now changed to warrant the recent harassment. The only pertinent changes that I can see are 1) we have a new GM,

2) I’ve been criticising Council’s compliance regime. It is an indication of Council’s compliance inconsistency that while they on one hand claim the discretion not to act, in my case they now claim that allowing the dwellings to remain ‘would create a precedent’. This is nonsense; where compliances are dealt with on a case-by-case basis each case is different and therefore by definition cannot create a precedent. To demonstrate Council’s hypocrisy I will need to subpoena large amounts of Council’s compliance files. If you try to find instances where Council has in the past elected to look the other way you will come up against the old ‘confidentiality’ barrier. People who have benefitted from Council looking the other way are

hardly likely to draw attention to it either, so when you try to find out what’s actually going on you have a tough job. I will also need to subpoena some files regarding to holiday letting, an industry which has consistently benefitted from Compliance’s selective vision over several years. I have the feeling that this case will bring many problems to a decisive head; looking back it all starts to acquire a certain inevitability. I will close by asking social worker Cr Simon Richardson how much low cost housing he will be able to personally provide to make up for the reduction in supply that will result if Council wins the case against me.

clair explained to her that the Terrace road reserve was now OK to be closed (to make way for a tourist resort) as bullock teams who needed wider roads no longer used it so it could now be handed back to the caravan park. What a load of bullocks! This road reserve has been closed for over 30 years. My family have lived in the Terrace for over 90 years and know all the history. I have had previous conversations with Derek trying to establish exactly what

his complex and deceiving plans really intend and usually find that while they say one thing the opposite is often the case. When I challenged Derek about his bullock statement he immediately denied it, but said he may have said something about all roads needing to be wider years ago. I also challenged Derek as to his assertions to Diana that there would be an improved public path through the Terrace Reserve that would be suitable for wheelchairs and prams as his current plans show no such thing, on the contrary, they recommend that all public access be stopped for security reasons. Again Derek acknowledged that as yet there is no defined walkway, so this was also not true. Finally, Diana ends her letter by stating there is no evidence of a ‘land grab’ in Dereks’ plans. This intrigues me as currently Diana lives opposite a beautiful riverside public park that she can walk 50 metres through to swim in the river. If Derek’s plans are adopted, this historic public parkland will become a treeless concrete car park and a fenced and private tourist resort.

ations impinge adversely on the majority. Such an example would be ‘freedom of speech’. We either have it, or we don’t have it, and we can’t lose that freedom simply because some minority feels such freedom makes them feel unsafe. Our national rights are diminished to accommodate the minority. The law is there to protect our society, and can deal with transgressors, and must not change to give preference to minorities at the expense of the majority. Only by the population taking back the power, can we protect ourselves from the treachery of people like Rudd and Howard who, while making a great show of being both Christian and staunch Australians, creep up the backsides of powerful ‘internationalists’ in New York or Westminster, who now openly declare their intentions of establishing an atheistic, all powerful, world government. Under our present style of government we are unable to stop them, and until we replace power in public hands, we must demand the right to ‘single issue voting’. I repeat, power belongs to the people. We delegate people (MPs) to act on our behalf and we’d better let Canberra know this before the next economic (financial) crisis hits us.

Power to the people The aim of Australia’s members of Parliament, all of them up to the present time, is to get into power, and by whatever means, stay there. Over the years I have been writing to The Echo and other newspapers, urging the necessity of removing power from Parliament, and parliamentarians and replacing it into the hands of the citizenry, where in a true democracy, it rightfully belongs. Only by such an urgent move will the Australian people govern their destiny. Decisions like dealing with our natural assets, to privatise or not, to go to wars which don’t affect our lifestyle, immigration, from where and how many, should our religious leaders have any say in national policy, dealing with ethnic groups, in considering what special considerations should there be for the minorities, and should such special consider-

Learning to follow a braid of freshets to the sea Story & photo Mary Gardner

The night was dark and stormy. The wind was lashing the tree branches against the house roof. Rain was pouring down. A heavy thud against the floor to ceiling window startled me out of my book. There, the noise again and again. I shone my torch at an angle through the lowest section of the glass. Facing me was a large green frog. That’s the third species this evening, pausing at my window. Perhaps the frogs are catching a breath. This time, I grab my camera, switch on the outdoor light and step out the front door. I’m confronted by the alter ego of the yard: a braid of freshets. Already the frog is gone from view, taking advantage of the dark flow as only amphibians can. Not till late the next morning did I go myself, down the freshets. Any other day, this would be a track down to the sea. As I slopped along, I could hear to my left a full concert of amphibians. There, somewhere at the lowest point in that large bed of reeds, were either frogs and toads or both. I couldn’t tell for sure. In Australia, the fates of frogs and these sudden flows of freshwater due to rain are so

intertwined. From egg to tadpole to frog can take as little as six weeks but an adult can live up to fifteen years. Freshwater can be in the sea or a pond in an hour or at Lake Ayre in a few months. It can join a water reservoir or underground water table and slow down for years.

At the interface They are both artful ephemera tracing processes that we don’t see plainly. Frogs convert the rich kilojoules of water bugs into protein that feed birds and other animals. Freshets move soils, with seeds, plants, bacteria and fungi as well as animals and eggs. They also mix in pesticide residues, exhaust dust and chemicals. Relying on this same wet, breathing through their moist skins, frogs live at the interface of water and land. This is how the crisis of frogs worldwide is tied up with not only water use but changes in the shape of land and its natural cover. Frogs reflect these disturbances. Weakened, they are suffocated by a type of fungus growing over their skin. Afflicted by chemicals, they are then cut down by bacteria. They are tricked by our urban and rural developments at the water/land interface. Where was a frog going when she

shows up in a toilet? So researchers now tracking frogs in the Murray Darling Basin are actually mapping the catchment’s recovery. The whole world is watching us as we wrangle the water free. The fate of the Basin is one of the international priorities for safeguarding biodiversity. It’s singled out in an initiative by

George Monbiot, the watchdog journalist at the UK Guardian. Monbiot is heading the upwelling of citizens who are publicising these specific challenges throughout the media. They will put this in front of the international delegates at the Biodiversity Convention in Japan (October 18-29). They are calling on people every-

where to not only change what they can themselves but to insist their governments add clout. To think as an entire catchment may seem grandiose until we doggedly follow aspects like the freshets and frogs. Our views change. We find farms can switch to new crops. All along town and farm, water conservation becomes a given. We see that swathes of invasive plants change habitats so drastically: what nursery can be allowed to sell them any more? As 22 species of exotic ornamental fish now crowd our waterways, eating up eggs, tadpoles and frogs, we accept that the live aquarium trade must change drastically. Recently, I heard a farmer describe how he learned and revived his farm in the Basin. He changed his entire enterprise to adapt to his catchment. So do others like him as well as developers, planners and builders. Urbanites are as much part of this land/water interface. We are all swapping or forgoing ‘water rights’. We all are changing practices. After training our senses on water catchments, we can then consider wildlife corridors. To soar and see connections across landscapes urban and rural, along coasts as well as inland from sea to mountain,

across all property boundaries and roads. To track the movements of animals back and forth over the cycles of days and seasons.

Critical needs Right now, understanding those movements takes more skill than ever before. With many wetlands, dunes and nearly all of our Big Scrub rainforest destroyed, we are forced to anticipate the critical needs of fauna. What is required by birds, bats, koalas, possums, all the other small mammals, the reptiles, frogs? And by the echidna, quoll, emu and yes even dingo? Natural corridors are critical. Like exchanging ‘water rights’, swapping ‘land use’ over to enhance these is vital. Alongside, investing in large buffer zones of compatible land uses is needed. We’re only starting to do as much as is needed. As Monbiot says, do what you can and demand of your government more. But like the freshets, there is something else we must accept. Everywhere is a living corridor and an endlessly changing habitat. We are always guests in other creatures’ homes. Ancient rules of hospitality as well as ecology require us to be at our best. How do we behave?

Eat your pet to save the planet, or reduce its pawprint Kel Raison

Dog owners may be eating more than humble pie when it comes to the war against cats, as research suggests a German Shepherd size pooch leaves approximately double the carbon pawprint per year as driving a Toyota Land Cruiser. Cats, on the other hand, equate to a VW Golf, according to sustainable living architects Robert and Brenda Vale, authors of the book, Time to Eat the Dog: The real guide to sustainable living.

The little critters take their toll, too, with two hamsters leaving the same size pawprint as a plasma television, one canary a quarter of a plasma telly and one goldfish swimming in at two mobile phones. As the title of the book suggests, the Vales are of the opinion that pets are a luxury item the planet cannot afford, and the only environmentally responsible form of pet ownership is to keep the ones that we can eat. So hats off to the rabbit who,

unlike the old fable, actually wins this race – as long as you are willing to eat them. Apparently two breeding rabbits who provide meat in the form of their regular offspring produce more energy than they require to sustain them, leaving a negative footprint of 0.09 ha per year if they are fed commercial feed. This cancels out the equivalent of two chihuahuas a year, or if you grow the rabbit food on site, three. Chickens do well, too, with three free-range laying hens

leaving two thirds of the carbon footprint of one hamster. This figure is reduced again if you are willing to eat the chooks when they are too old to lay. The figures are based mostly on the food consumption of domestic animals and have caused a stir in the international pet owning community. They are contested on the basis of incorrect calculations, with one conflicting report suggesting the Vales may have overestimated the meat consumption

of a medium sized dog by double, and underestimated the footprint of the Land Cruiser. Another viewpoint is that humans themselves are overconsumers of meat and as pet food is mostly made from byproducts of the human meat industry, the use of animal parts that would otherwise be discarded should reduce the calculated carbon pawprint of our pets. Then there is the animal rights perspective that our pets have as much right to be here as us, one that is difficult

to contest, considering which species has done the most damage to the planet. However the pawprint analyses remain thought provoking when it comes to feeding and caring for our chosen animal companions. Dogs are omnivorous scavengers by nature, not carnivores, and have quite hardy digestive systems that can cope with reasonable human leftovers. Supplementing your dog’s diet with food scraps that would otherwise go to waste significantly reduces their pawprint, and sourcing bi-product meat from your local butchers has a similar effect. However some human food scraps are toxic to dogs and cats according to Mullumbimby vet Dr Richard Gregory. ‘Onion and chocolate, particularly dark chocolate, can be toxic to dogs,’ Dr Gregory said. ‘Large quantities of grapes, sultanas, raisins and currants can cause acute kidney failure. Too much garlic (one clove a day should be okay), macadamias (particularly raw) and avocados, including avocado leaves, are also toxic to dogs. ‘Cats are pretty much the same, although more sensitive than dogs to onion.’ However feeding Fido the same diet as the average Westerner actually increases the carbon pawprint, according to the Vales, so stick to leftovers and offcuts. If you trust their calculations, the Vales also suggest that dried dog food has approximately half the footprint of a human diet whereas tins have a higher carbon footprint. Cat foods vary in quality and ingredients and if you can’t make your cat feed exclusively on rats and mice (not Antechinuses please), then steering towards tinned foods made from chicken and poultry with a low meat content is about the best you can do. As with dogs, making use of offcuts from the butcher that Westerners generally don’t use also helps. What goes in to your pet must eventually come out, and dog and cat faeces can impact the biodiversity and chemical levels of the surrounding environment. One solution to this problem is a worm farm which can break down faeces and animal hair, turning it into useful garden compost. Further environmentally responsible things you can do as a pet owner are: desexing your animal to reduce unplanned pregnancies; keep your cat inside at all times; don’t walk your dog in ecologically sensitive areas, even on the lead; try natural alternatives to chemical flea control such as flea combs and vacuum cleaners; use kitty litter made from recycled materials such as newspaper and pick up your pets’ poo for the worm farm so that it doesn’t contaminate waterways. www.echo.net.au

Suzuki’s vision for the future A rebel take on Buddha The Legacy: An Elder’s Vision for our Sustainable Future, by David Suzuki (Allen & Unwin) Rosy Whelan

Some 20 years ago, I had the disconcerting pleasure of hearing David Suzuki, Canada’s best known environmentalist, speak about the plight of our planet. Much of what he said was common knowledge, albeit knowledge we choose to put aside, but there was one thing that haunted me and changed my modus operandi: ‘When you throw something away, it doesn’t go anywhere. It stays with you – and all of us – for the rest of your life.’ Suzuki has written more than 40 books, but none as eloquent as this one, based on his 2009 Legacy Lecture, delivered at the University of British Colombia. In the Introduction to this slim volume of some 100 pages, the author, who turns 75 next year, asks, ‘What’s it all about? What have I learned over a lifetime that I’d like to pass on?’ He also writes, ‘I offer my vision, based on a lifetime’s worth of experiences, for a future that is possible, one rich in joy, happiness and meaning.’ Starting with the big questions of who we are, where we came from and where we’re going, Suzuki divides his book into three sections: Evolution of a Superspecies, Finding a New Path, and A Vision for the Future. I’m not sure how he managed to pack so much into so few pages, for not only does he outline and address the major challenges we now face, but he also offers solutions and a positive vision for the future. Additionally, Suzuki quotes extensively from a wide range of literature that includes ecologists, anthropologists, theologians, philosophers, linguists, writers, biologists and economists to name just a few.

Throughout the book he weaves details of his profound and productive life into a narrative thread, accompanied by fascinating family photos. There are many lessons to be learned from this little book. As Suzuki writes, ‘We have lost our sense of place in the world and our reverence for nature. We need a new relationship with the planet that is, in fact, our ancient understanding.’ I commend it to anyone who cares about the future of humanity. Q David Suzuki will speak at the A&I Hall in Bangalow on Wednesday October 27 at 7pm. Tickets $15, from Northern Rivers Writers’ Centre, Jonson Street, Byron Bay phone 6685 5115, or SCU Co-op Bookshop, SCU Campus, Lismore, phone 6621 4484.

Stephen Batchelor, former monk, translator of classical Buddhist texts and author of the best-selling Buddhism without Beliefs, will be in Byron Bay this month. He’ll be talking at the Byron Community and Cultural Centre and focussing on the secular intent of the Buddha’s teachings and the relevance of that message today. Stephen Batchelor was a monk for ten years, first as a Tibetan Buddhist and then in a Korean Zen monastery. He’s translated texts from Tibetan as well as Pali and he’s used the logic and deductive skills taught in Tibetan Buddhist training to question the some of the foundations of the more religious forms of Buddhism. In recent times he has had an interest in what the historical Buddha’s life might have been like and what really differentiated the Buddha’s teachings from those of other traditions. Stephen’s personal journey and research have led to a string of books including Living with the Devil: A Meditation on Good and Evil and the more recent Confession of a Buddhist Atheist. According to his publicists, Stephen regularly challenges the more religious aspects of Buddhism like the belief in rebirth and the idea that there

is a metaphysical core to the Buddha’s teachings. He has the view that many current day Buddhist practices and attitudes go far beyond what the Buddha intended and as a scholar and translator he is in a good position to back up his claims. This is Stephen’s second visit to Australia. He last came in

2004 and was keynote speaker of that year’s Buddhism and Psychotherapy conference in Sydney. On this visit he’ll be leading retreats with his wife Martine and giving talks in Sydney and the one in Byron Bay. It’s at the Community Centre at 7 pm on Friday 22nd October.

The Byron Shire Echo October 12, 2010 17


Even though women have contributed to economic productivity since the dawn of history, the phrase women in business typically describes the more modern phenomenon of women participating not only in successfully running their own businesses but also in taking on roles that in the past had been more of men’s domain

Women own and run approximately a third of New South Wales’ 650,000 small businesses. There are many resources available to support the challenging role of being a woman in business; the state government has a small business website – www.smallbiz. nsw.gov.au which has a section dedicated to women in business.

In an effort to harness the potential of emerging female entrepreneurs the NSW government supports business women through its Women In Business mentoring program. In the Northern Rivers there are many inspiring women who have seen a need in the market and have created niche businesses to fill that gap. Some are showcased on this page.

Yummy Mummy Fitness

Spangled Drongo

Lisa Parkes has been operating her own businesses in Byron for 7 years and currently Y\UZ [OYLL Z\JJLZZM\S OLHS[O HUK Ä[ULZZ businesses – Results Based Training, Yummy Mummy Fitness and Seachange Retreat. Lisa is known in the region for her practise-whatshe-preaches lifestyle – she is the true little TPZZ Ä[ Using her own experience as a mother, Lisa designed Yummy Mummy classes where new mums can tighten and tone their bodies while having baby safely with them and meeting other mums. Many mothers want to exercise and get their pre-baby body back but feel uncomfortable leaving the baby at such a young age. Yummy Mummy classes give mums the opportunity to exercise within weeks of the birth. The exercise class involves mums and their babies using touch, sound and song to help the cognitive development of your child. This program has the backing of local busines Nature’s Child who will be providing gift and information packs and locals discount cards.

Opening the Spangled Drongo Thai restaurant in October 2007 was a gamble for Inez Price, but she knew that her son Tom could cook amazing food. Three years later, with a liquor licence and an excellent reputation for Thai food, locals and tourists continue enjoying the feasts. Inez believes that a small restaurant can survive initially only if it is run by hardworking family. Serving up a high standard product from a well balanced menu, supporting local growers, using organic produce and catering to special dietary needs can help it to prosper and grow in this area. The Spangled Drongo will be catering for the famous Blue Moon Cabaret in Nimbin on November 6 at the Town

This circumstance leads to a variety of physical and psychological ailments and illnesses. Atlasprofilax is a neuromuscular technique that liberates the Atlas with only one application Accurately, Safely and Permanently. This powerful relocation immediately activates a self-healing and harmonising process. It is holistic in nature, promoting wellness and rejuvenation on all levels, mind, body and spirit. This method is non-medical, non-chiropratic.

One treatment can be life changing. The Atlas supports your head and governs structural alignment. A misaligned Atlas causes restriction of the brain stem, spinal cord, cranial nerves and arteries. This limits our potential for wellbeing and creates tension, restricting the free flow of energy. When the Atlas is installed correctly, the body begins an unwinding process, releasing holding patterns and enabling the body to heal and regenerate.

Moreover, the defective position leads to problems concerning the whole spine and causes repercussions with muscles, eyes, ears, jaw, nerves, circulation and organs. The spine also compensates with a rotation down to the pelvis.

The King and I .. p24

.........

... MUSIC

Talking with Kaki King is mesmerising. She doesn’t give normal musician style answers.

CULTURE ......... p27

For King, her music is about philosophy and connection and melancholy and breaking rules. It’s about chasing traditions from classical to jazz, indie and pop and then smashing them apart with a weird ukele riff. King’s latest album Junior is her fourth to hit the racks, and right now this petite but fierce girl from New York is at the top of her game. Mullum Music Festival welcomes Ms King as the headline act for this year’s festival. I caught up with her in the Big Apple (on the phone from Mullum, the squashed banana).

GIG GUIDE ...... p32 CINEMA

S ......... p

33

EATING OUT ..... p35

STARS................ p34

So what kind of music does King want to be making and who influences her? ‘I think that there are certain people that are great and there are so many artists that I love, people going back centuries, its jazz and twentieth century music, it’s a broad spectrum and it’s unbelievable, it’s always different and as recording becomes looser, it just opens it up. It’s amazing to think that you couldn’t record even a demo at your house 20 years ago!’

GUITAR LESSON with Brewster Bros! To promote their upcoming show at the Courthouse in Mullumbimby on

For the prolific King it’s all about time. The less time she has the more music she makes. Too much time she claims is the enemy of the artist!

Sunday 24 October Rick and John Brewster have offered one lucky reader the chance to win a ONE HOUR GUITAR LESSON with the infamous duo. Also have DOUBLE PASSES for the runner ups. Email gigs@echo.net.au with subject header ‘Brewster’

‘Time is a very very powerful tool, when you have a time limit you are very very productive, having endless time is the achilles heel of the home studio, it’s like great we can have as much time as we want, and you just procrastinate, but having a time commitment is an inspiration.’

So how does King approach her time in the studio? ‘It’s never been track by track, its been typically let’s get this bit down, and all the things that are for sure, they are the bits we get down, all the bits we don’t know the flourishes and the unknown, the things that make the songs interesting and cool, well we do that in the second week, and the third week let’s drive in the car – and listen. I don’t like to spend a lot of time in the studio. I’ll do 10 - 12 hours straight but then that’s enough.’

////////// I SEE RED \\\\\\\\\\\ You just can’t account for human stupidity. It seems that our potential for supreme acts of idiocy has always grown in direct parallel to our ability for sublime human acts of genius. With every step forward into the light of our own brilliance, we’re dogged by the shadow of consequence and catastrophe. Here we are evolved from primordial slime logging onto Facebook on our iPhones, sending robots to probe Mars as scientists doodle on the borders of their map of the human genome. At the same time we are the authors of environmental havoc that threatens to end life as we know it. Corporations repeat their global safety assurances, mantras like ‘Relax it will never happen’ or ‘It’s safe’ , but it just doesn’t cut it. As Australia expands uranium mining at Roxby Downs and Olympic Dam, perhaps it’s time to turn our attentions to the latest European industrial disaster, a kind of Nouveau Chenoybyl. Last week a reservoir burst at a metal plant just 160 kilometres southwest of Budapest and within hours an estimated one million cubic metres of toxic waste was dumped into the environment, swamping villages, farmlands, and countryside in a poison red sea of radioactive contaminant. In what is quite possibly one of the prettiest areas of Eastern Europe, all three towns close to the site have been wiped out with no possiblity of rebuilding. The sludge is high in lead, caustic soda and heavy metals. It’s radioactive and inhaling the dust can lead to lung cancer. God knows what wading waste deep in the shit is going to do to you. Or to the land where you once grew your food. Or to the water sources that the waste has leaked into. As the sludge made its way to the Danube the spin doctors were already in place claiming that the sheer volume of water would have diluted the aluminium byproduct to the point of being benign. In fact I can’t wait for them to sell the bottled water here. Geez, we paid top dollar for sparkling Evian. What would we be prepared to pay for a

bottle of Blue Danube? Well, sort of a bit Red Danube now, but that’s not poison, it’s just an explosion at the cochineal plant when the giant cupcake reservoir sprung a leak. What assurances do you give people while they sit around for the next few decades growing cancers? Luckily for big business, cancers from contaminant exposure are slow growing and, as radiation expert Helen Caldicott has said, can take up to 20 years or more to take hold. Villagers would have been relocated, communities rebuilt and tragedies forgotten when metastised cancers wash through the internal organs. It’s the second wave of the red sludge, the most lethal of them all. It’s corporate murder. But happily aluminium would have been smelted, profits made, and the red sludge victims so displaced it would be hard to get a real picture of just what had caused their unfortunate illness. After all Istvan was a heavy smoker. It was just a coincidence that he grew his food in a field where the sludge had settled and caught his fish in the Danube. Like the Queensland politician who sang the praises of Monsanto and the harmless nature of its infamous herbicide by skulling a glass of RoundUp and ending up stone cold dead, I expect the people of Eastern Europe will be experiencing their own red terror. How does a company give back a village? A history? An ecosystem? A child’s life? How have we as human beings come to a point where such devastating accidents with irreparable environmental damage are normalised? The Exxon Valdez oil spill has managed to pass itself off as an unfortunate corporate mishap and the leakages at Ranger & Olympic Dams form the basis of a few more workplace safety reports for OH&S. So welcome to the resource boom. Australia has become the world’s quarry; environmental disasters of this massive scale are just around the corner. It’s only a matter of time. At least it takes away that horrible uncertainty worrying about whether or not we have cancer. Everyone will have cancer. Except for CEOs.

Driving is a creative time for King. She uses the time to deconstruct her recordings, to fine tune and create. ‘I have the whole driving thing sussed out: when you are driving the logical parts of your brain are engaged because they are doing something non intellectual – you become mesmerised, like if you were moving a pile of rocks to another bunch of rocks, it takes up that part of the mind that’s super critical and stops you making more lateral jumps.’

So how does an artist make the choices they need to make, when every door can lead to a completely different song? ‘That’s the problem. It’s all arbitary. There are so many right choices, and so many wrong choices, but that’s what makes music magic, and you have no idea why, the countless amount of songs that people have written that are amazing. Beethoven, it’s five notes, it’s the stupidest thing (she starts playing the keys over the phone) – it’s Ode to Joy. It’s whatever he did, it really is dumb but it’s perfect, you have to go after these intuitive and very visceral ideas , you can’t listen to your brain, it’s not the emotional part of ... I think that there is music that really does stimulate the brain and that’s important.’

Catharsis is a big part of King’s songwriting. ‘I think we have something in our internal nature that speaks to the reason why we listen to a sad song. It’s not to become sadder; it’s to become happier, catharsis is a cool idea, it’s about release, that’s why so much beautiful music is written around that theme. We need to let our emotions out, things are incredibly beautiful and we need to let things out and suddenly we feel better!’

King’s ironically titled track Sunnyside does just that. ‘It came out in 20 minutes, there was no arguing, nothing I had to change. Sunnyside is a neighbourhood in Queens., I said to my girlfriend, whatever you do, don’t live there, and she did, and it just fucking killed me. Why do you have to move to the one place I asked you not to live in because of an old girlfriend, it’s dumb – when you see the title of the track, you think sunnyside of life! But it’s like the worst possible place you could imagine! It was so crippling that everytime we get in a cab I’d be going, why why!’ Understandably the relationship didn’t survive Sunnyside. Kaki King headlines Mullum Music Festival with a performance on Sunday 28 November. Tickets are available online at www. mullummusicfestival.com or call the hotline on 6684 6195.

Mick Music Mick McHugh returns from Far North Queensland to play three duo gigs joined by a violinist.

Ed Kuepper headlines the Lismore Show this year. Building on the fantastic foundations set by the infamous Cock’n’Bull Tent, 2010 will see performers covering a huge chunk of Australian rock’n’roll history and contemporary music from midday on Saturday October 23rd through to late. Dolphin winners Koi Kids are the opening act Under The Tent. In a minor coup, the Lismore Show is also proud to present winners of the 2010 Dolphin Album Of The Year and the new Garage/Indie section, The Tendons. Sara Tindley and the Kingfishers hold a special place in the hearts of many North Coast Music lovers and the country tinged, melody heavy, sunshine filled tunes will certainly satisfy. The North Coast’s hardest working country rock band The Re-Mains return and ARIA Award nominated Holly Throsby also appears. Throsby has garnered glowing reviews from music press across the globe and with her band will present songs that have been described as ‘poetic distillations with an elusive profundity’ (Mojo, UK). Kim Salmon and Ron Peno are two men so respected in Australian music thanks to their stints in so many classic left of centre groups that their coming together a few years ago left any wondering why it didn’t happen earlier. Rounding out a day of amazing music is the enigmatic Ed Kuepper, a man who is simultaneously a Saint, A Bad Seed and A Laughing Clown. A man whose impact on Australian music stretches back to the mid 1970s when he and his band mates declared they were Stranded up until he was invited by Nick Cave a year or two back to become a permanent Bad Seed. Ed has such a profound and diverse back catalogue but is always looking to the future it is impossible to say exactly what he will offer up in Lismore. Nevertheless you can be assured it will be the kind of show that folks will talk about in hushed tones for many, many months to come.

Mad about Martha Lismore Jazz Club is excited to bring alto saxophonist/composer Martha Baartz to the Lismore Bowling Club on Sunday from 2pm to 5pm. Admission is $7 for members and students and $10 for non members. Preceding Martha, from approximately 12.30pm to 1.30pm will be students from the Conservatorium.

Ghent seems to be quite big on groovy tunes and clubbing, but also for alternative music.

In the early Soulwax days, Stephen Dewaele (of 2manydjs) and I used to DJ for fun, mixing anything from disco and funk to rock and electronic stuff. Then I moved to New York for seven years. When I came back to Belgium, I steadily started DJ-ing more and more; from the bar to the local clubs to international places. The name One Man Party came from James Murphy (of LCD Soundsytem) because I was known for dancing and partying hard on tour and at parties. It seemed perfect to use as a DJ name.

When he isn’t pounding rhythms behind the drumkit for Belgian indie crossover band Soulwax, Ghent-based artist Steve Slingeneyer is quite likely to be mixing tunes, slipping beats and raising the roof at some venue around the world. Under the name of One Man Party, Slingeneyer has been putting together the most awkward of musical mash-ups in a manner that eludes categorisation, let alone description.

How did you first get involved in music and then in bands? My father is a musician; my whole family is musical. We would dance in the living room to Earth, Wind and Fire and rock out to AC/DC. I got into music at an early age. I was 13 or so when I picked up the guitar and then got into drums, formed a punk/hardcore band and that was it. It just grew from there.

Apart from the Soulwax connection, what gave you the urge to set up your one man party alter ego, and when?

26 October 12, 2010 The Byron Shire Echo

Eclectic setlists are becoming more and more popular. Why do you think have clubbers become more receptive to such diversity on the dancefloor? Being eclectic is completely natural to me. I get bored hearing or playing just one style of music. I think people in general have broad tastes. One has to cater for that. It’s also a real challenge to make different styles of music work together. You can mix by tempo but also by key, finding little bridges between tracks is what excites me. Although clubbers tend to follow ‘styles’ a lot it’s nice to tease or surprise them with a track they wouldn’t normally dance to. A DJ should just want to make as many people dance as possible and hypnotise them with his selections, but it’s also a lot of fun to shock sometimes; throw somebody off. By the way, I never rehearse a set.

Any particular people you’d care to mention who have had a major musical influence on you as a musician and as a DJ? There are loads and it’s mostly because they’ve taken me on a trip… Maurice Fulton, Carl Craig, 2manydjs of course, Riton, James Murphy and Pat Mahoney, Erol Alkan, Justice.

<echowebsection=Entertainment>

Ghent has been producing some good music lately. My favourite new band is called Teddiedrum; a two-piece band that plays electronics, a ‘teddybear’ drum, guitar, keys… they sound like a cross between Hot Chip and Devo. Then there’s a good indie band called Wallace Vanborn and others such as Hong Kong Dong, Das Pop, Drums are for Parades, Waldorf, Mascotte and many others. There’s a lot of diversity and many of the younger bands are often quite experimental, which is always good. On the dance front there’s Nid and Sancy, The Glimmers, Ultravid, Sound of Stereo, Disco Drunkards, Hermanos Inglesos… a lot of bands. Ghent has been a real source for dance music but there’s a lot of live action too thanks to clubs and bars such as Charlatan, Make-up, Vooruit, Culture Club, Video and Roerkuip.

Your top five tracks at the moment are… Yeah by Boys Noize, Zaffrica by Zzt, Coma cat by Tensnake, I Am Europe (Dj Edjotronic Remix), and La Riots Bomba (Mowgli Remix).

You’re playing at Brat Pack alongside Sam La More. What are you cooking up for the occasion? Brat Pack will drop the funk and I bring on the rave…

Any expectations on your part from Byron and its clubbing scene? Sadly, I don’t know the clubbing scene in Byron but I can imagine it’s an easy atmosphere with all the sun you get! I am definitely interested in spending some time on the beach and I’ve heard about Nimbin, which I hope to visit… depending on how the club night goes of course (laughs).

Your Big Phat Chance

Fashionistas hit LismoreÂ

On the back of a year already packed with a massive touring schedule, including the national Inkstains tour and supports for heavyweight acts like Method Man & Redman, DJ Premier and The Beat nuts; Solo Artists Phatchance & Coptic Soldier are once again hitting the road with their unique brand of fiercely independent, progressive Australian hip-hop. Both solo artists have quickly established themselves as key members in the new guard of Australian Hip-Hop music, their pragmatic approach and personal song writing has bridged the genre gap and seen them forge a dedicated and growing following beyond the typical reach of the genre. They play the Brewery on Thursday.

A Meek Man Loaded with charisma, Melbourne based songsmith Ryan Meeking is a captivating story teller. His journeying songs have a powerful dynamic that often reveal shades of Jeff Buckley. These alluring tales come to life on stage with his band – a potent combination that will silence any noisy room. Appearing at The Beach Hotel Saturday at 9.30pm. Free Entry.

Red Eyes next Friday The Red Eyes describe themselves as a bit like the Hotel California – you can check out anytime but you can never leave. Now with a core group of seven multi-instrumentalist musical talents, performances can feature up to 12 members onstage, with their recordings including over 30 of Australia’s most talented musicians. The band is led on stage by enigmatic front man El Witeri who draws on his New Zealand upbringing and Maori heritage for inspiration. Don’t miss their show at the Byron Brewery on Friday October 22.

This Friday the Lismore Workers Club will play host to a night of glamour, as new and familiar local designers showcase their latest collections at the Debut Gala Event. The gala event will be a truly community celebration as the Lismore Fashion Society has gained the support of many local businesses, public personalities, musicians and designers to create this exciting event.

Carola Funks It Up Carola Christian is a versatile performer and singer. She is an incredibly passionate and distinct vocalist with a commanding voice. With a broad range of deep haunting vocals to screaming soprano, Carola has the ability to move her velvety tones thru raw sensuality to gutsy power. Together with ‘The Dirty Funk Affair’ they produce a unique sound fusion of Rock, Soul & Pop with a strong retro vibe succumbing to affairs with Latin and wayward romances with Funk...creating an eclecticism that makes them hard to categorise. Friday at the Rails.

The Still Curtin

Wild Dance

Since moving to Byron Bay four years ago, Bernadette Curtin has extended previous themes begun in Melbourne. In her new series presented this Thursday at Still @ the Centre gallery, she painted directly from observations of the changing and dramatic weather patterns of our area. The title chosen, Forecast, also refers to the times we are now experiencing, as if the paintings were not only about her present environment but, in a wider context, sounding out the future. Forecast will be opened this Thursday by Candida Baker, director of the Writers Festival at Still at the Centre, 3 Centennial Circuit, Byron Bay. The exhibition will run until November 6th. Enquiries: (02) 6685 5808 or www.the-centre.com.au

The Wild Honey Dance Festival is double the fun in 2010 with an intensive workshop program on October 23-24 and a bohemian performance extravaganza, Rhapsody, short workshops and markets on November 13-14. Local resident and former pilates instructor to the Australian Ballet, Harjiwan, will strengthen your core at her Body Conditioning session on 23 October while guest artist, Melusina (Melb) will teach sensual, syrupy-slow, succulent moves reminiscent of moving through honey at her 4 hour Tribal Fusion workshop intensive. The next day Hilary Cinis (Syd), slinky fusion dancer extraordinaire, who moonlights as senior web designer at the ABC, will explore figure 8 movements and apply a design technique called ‘Information Architecture’ to facilitate rapid creation of a choreography in her Contemporary Fusion workshop titled ‘Infinity’. Students are invited to ‘co-create’ choreographies with Hilary and Melusina with the final product being performed three weeks later at the Rhapsody event. All workshops are being held in Byron Bay. See Melusina and Hilary, Opalesque, Danielle Sansom of the Barefoot Gypsies and more at the intimate Performance Parlour on Saturday October 23 from 7pm in Brunswick Heads. Tickets $5 at the door, sweet honey cakes and spicy chai are also available. For details of the November festival program visit www.wildhoneyfestival.com or call Belinda on 0420 398590.

1. If you ever wanted anyone to fly a spaceship to an asteroid and blow it up, then you’d probably pick Bruce Willis and Will Patton. That’s exactly what they do, not without difficulty, in Armageddon (Prime, Friday, 8.30pm). 2. Elizabeth Banks and Leonardo Di Caprio get funky with it in Catch Me If You Can (TEN, Saturday, 8.30pm), one of the best movies of the week, based on the real life of an amazing con man. 3. In a sort of Gaslight for teenagers, Leelee Sobieski begins to have suspicions about the family who takes her in after the death of her parents. Such is life in the Glass House (NBN, Sunday, 10.30pm).

cannot make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear. Liz is an unconvincing character who deals in nauseating platitudes and whose most telling expression of understanding is to halfclose her eyes and gaze in wonderment into the middle distance. Bali is the Love chapter and upon her arrival there a baby nearby, who looked unnervingly like Charles Laughton (it was Reel Mums’ day), unleashed an appropriately brown pong that I thought summed it up perfectly – the life-changing experience is done better and with more sincerity and far more emotional impact in ten minutes in ‘The Rebound’ (2009). And at the end of her journey, what is Liz’s ultimate reward? A bloke. But not just any bloke – it’s Javier Bardem! She’s got it all, and God’s in his heaven.

Buried Lodged in my brain is the memory of an episode from ‘The Twilight Zone’. A fellow in prison arranged with his contact outside to be buried with an old inmate who was about to die. The buddy would then come and dig him up. When the escapee was lying in the coffin waiting for his release, he struck a match, pulled the shroud away from the corpse and, to his horror, saw that the dead man was his buddy. It is a pity that Rod Serling wasn’t still available to tidy up the script of Rodrigo Cortes’s otherwise excellent thriller. The film begins in pitch blackness, with Paul Conway (Ryan Reynolds), an American truck driver working in Iraq in 2006, waking to find that he is bound and gagged in a coffin. He has been abducted by terrorists,

one of whom contacts him on the cell phone that he has been left with and demands five million dollars for Conway’s release. The psychological hell of the situation is instantly established, but so too is the worry that the story can surely not be maintained without other characters and locations being introduced – a man

in a box for ninety minutes is a daunting prospect for any moviegoer. Not unlike in last year’s brilliant ‘Moon’, which also dealt with extreme isolation, Cortes succeeds in drawing you deeper and deeper into Conway’s claustrophobic world. Through countless subtle camera and lighting variations and an edit that never allows for stagnation – if anything, the pace is quicker than it need be – you experience with Conway his panic, frustration and hope. There are a few suss elements – the snake that appears, underground (if it wasn’t already in the coffin, how did it get there?), is employed for no other reason than to ratchet up the scariness, which it did one hundred per cent, and Conway’s lighter has more fuel in it than you might reasonably expect it to have. Also, in communicating with his family, employer, the State Department, the FBI and an organisation that has been established to rescue hostages from insurgents, his cell phone battery, already down to three bars at the commencement of his ordeal, lasts a hell of a lot longer than mine ever does. Heavy-handed commentary about bad Big Business, idiotic officialdom and terrorists as freedom fighters thankfully takes a back seat to the intensity of Conway’s riveting struggle and the drama is only slightly diminished by a climax that comes across as rather too much like a Monty Python black joke. ~ John Campbell

Mungo’s Crossword ďŹ rst published in The Week.

E ARIES: This week offers lessons in the affections sector, whether that’s self value, appreciating others or just a general spring cleanse of your love receptors. With October’s emphasis in your house of teamwork, joint ventures, shared resources and combined efforts, two heads are definitely better than one. F TAURUS: As personal, business and social relationships come under the cosmic microscope for recalibrating terms of general give and take, this week’s planetary salad recommends clarifying what you want for yourself along with setting your highest intentions for what you’d like to share with others. G GEMINI: Feelings‌ everybody’s got them this week and even Geminis could start behaving like emoticons. Should that happen don’t clam up, press yes to Ebay buys you’ll regret or entertain the usual escape fantasies. Just do what you do best talk about it. Sharing brings clarity. H CANCER: Domestic pressures or office politics unsettling? Then it’s time to meditate on Cancerian chronicler of the human condition Michael Leunig’s take on life as a holiday on earth‌ The personal planets are extending the olive branch to patch up quarrels, repair friendships and reconcile differences. I LEO: If power struggles and control issues are up and running, lion-tame those unruly emotions – it never pays to make enemies. Buying luxury love substitutes probably won’t work either with post-purchase rejection high during Venus retrogrades. Be cool, review your options, remember your sense of humour. J VIRGO: If others are unreliable this week just deal with it, because the only thing you can change is yourself. You do have your own tiny flaws, so take responsibility for the mood you create – you’d prefer that affectionate rather than fractious and frazzled, wouldn’t you?

The Australian teams left the Khanty-Mansiysk Olympiad with no medals but satisfaction over a difficult job completed. Australia’s Open team, seeded 49th in a field of 148, finished as predicted: =49th. Remarkably, every Australian Open player scored above 50 per cent, with David Smerdon top scoring for the team with 6/9. Our Open team seemed to lose momentum in the second half of the tournament but veteran Grandmaster Darryl Johansen still had the energy to win the last game to finish in Siberia – a 132 move marathon against a young Nigerian opponent. Australia’s Women’s team finished better than their male counterparts: a tie for 37th in a field of 114, having been seeded 53rd. After winning her final three games Giang Nguyen top scored for Australia with 6.5/10, although Arianne Caoili’s 6/11 on first board was equally meritorious. Australia’s Women’s team

M S AGITTARIUS: This week’s strife and spice whips up a bonanza of lively interactions, plans and engagements. Exhausting, because you’ll be the one maintaining an optimistic light and plugging positive possibilities in the face of conflicting agendas, general pessimism and lowest common denominationalist thinking. Factor in some rest. N CAPRICORN: Don’t make the mistake of thinking nothing’s going on in the emotional zone this week. There’s plenty, but it’s up to you to figure out what‌ Hard work, so reward yourself by kicking up your heels under late week Capricorn moon in a capricious, delicious caper. O AQUARIUS: Earth signs have roots, Aquarians have aerials, which at present are likely to be receiving messages from distant friends or relatives. This week favours the arts: of negotiation, compromise and creative adaptation, especially when dealing with that one in every crowd who’s a prize pain in the arts. P P ISCES: So what if you change your mind this week – a little oscillation isn’t a federal offence. It isn’t easy being multifaceted when your facets head in different directions. A heart to heart talk about unfinished business will get some of them working in synch this week.

And I was loving every luscious mouthful. Later Greg came out to chat, telling me that he had cooked the goat long and slow, 130oC for about six hours with spices like juniper berries. He had had goat on his menu last year and no one was interested; this year it has been running out the door and in fact a wedding party booked for the following evening had specifically requested it.

Which came as a surprise for Byron Bay chef Jade Campbell-Scott of Cafe One One One when I later related the story. Some years previously he had offered it on his menu a few times – done Greek-style as a braise after marinating it in yoghurt and lemon – but the interest was never really there. Perhaps the interest Greg is now experiencing is to do, generally, with a public ever more curious about food, better educated, prepared to take risks. Even so, goat meat recipes are few and far between in the more popular food magazines like ‘Gourmet Traveller’ and ‘Delicious’ – which itself suggests that eating goat is not yet mainstream. Why is it? At first I decided it was that emotional response many of us have to eating animals employed as pets – rabbits and horses spring to mind – or who have faces too sweet to contemplate the cooking and consuming of what is attached to them. But then cows have the sweetest of

faces; lambs are positively adorable; ducks are too cute to mention – so why without a second thought do I blithely proceed to devour them with glee? The goats Greg has on his current menu are Yarrabee Boers and they come from one of the largest and most established studs in Queensland, located on the Darling Downs. Boer goats, as the name suggests, originated in South Africa in the early 1900s when farmers began to select their goats for meat qualities. It is in fact the only goat breed that has been specifically bred for meat and it is recognised as the world’s premium meat goat. (The word ‘boer’ means ‘farmer’ in Afrikaans.) These goats were first introduced into Australia in the 1990s; Australia is now the largest exporter of goat meat and live goats in the world. As a source of low-fat nutrition, goat meat is magnificent. It is as lean as chicken. However, precisely due to its natural leanness, there are two important rules for cooking it: namely to cook it slowly (at a low temperature) and to cook it with moisture. Thyme, olive oil, citrus and both red and white wines lend themselves beautifully to the meat. There are two types – capretto (Italian for kid goat), which is meat from very young milk-fed goats between four and eight weeks of age, and Chevon which is the meat from heavier goats who are six to 18 months old. And it is often said that the former resembles spring lamb in flavour, whereas the latter is more like venison. The cuts are all very similar to lamb – leg, rump, rack, shoulder and diced. Wholly Smoked Butchery in Byron Bay occasionally has goat meat in stock, and the stunning new Howard’s Butchery and Deli in Lismore has it too, so next time you feel the stirrings of culinary adventurousness, give it a go! Drawing the line, perhaps, at goat’s head soup. The Orion Curry House has had top reviews by international travel magazines as the great curry house by the sea. The annual winner/finalist of the Indian Award of Excellence, the Orion is also producing the best coffee by Segafredo, continental all day breakfast, lunch, curry house dinner, and the mystical ambience to match. The 3am cocktail lounge and entertainment is the highlight this summer. RSVP for private functions in upstairs lounge is recommended.

Wineries of the Gold Coast Pt 1

6685 6029

Once you get past the beaches and the high-rises, the hinterland of the Gold Coast offers rich wining and dining experiences. Motor through rainforest and into countryside rich with vineyards, boutique wineries and associated dining treats. According to Queensland Vineyards (www. queenslandvineyards.com),the Gold Coast Hinterland Wine Country is ‘one of the fastest growing wine regions in Queensland, encompassing the cooler climate of Mt Tamborine and Springbrook, through to the milder climates of Albert River and Canungra Valley; the region allows a diverse range of grape varieties to be grown. These range from plantings of Verdelho, Chambourcin and Semillon, through to Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Shiraz and Chardonnay. ‘Many of the cellar doors offer superb restaurants, cheese tastings, gourmet picnics and winery and vineyard tours. Group tours are welcome, as are individual travellers who are looking for an escape from the stress of city living.’ Below are two you might like to visit: O’REILLY’S CANUNGRA VALLEY VINEYARDS – ‘one of the premium boutique cellar doors in South East Queensland. Located in the peaceful Canungra Valley, in the Gold Coast Hinterland, we are a scenic 60 minute drive south of Brisbane and 35 minutes’ drive west of the Gold Coast. This area is one of Queensland’s newly emerging wine growing regions. Canungra Valley soil is well suited to grapes, as the rich river loam has been built up over centuries by the flooding creek and a naturally occuring layer of gravel a metre under the surface allows for excellent drainage. ‘Eight of the fifteen acres of land belonging to the Vineyard are “under vine”, consisting of 4,000 vines of primarily Chambourcin and Semillon grape. ‘Chambourcin is a subtropical grape variety that is ideally suited to our climate here in South East Queensland. Chambourcin produces good-quality, ruby-colored

wines that have a reasonably full, slightly herbaceous flavour and aroma. This grape is used to produce our lush sparkling red, still red wine and port. ‘Semillon is a white wine variety often grown in the Hunter Valley. This grape variety makes a dry, grassy style of white wine. The crop is harvested in February, before the tradtional wet season. The semillon grapes turn from a pale green colour to a golden yellow before ripening. – www.oreillys.com.au/cvv THUMMS WINERY – ‘The Thumm family has been involved in viticulture and winemaking for over three hundred years, originally in the Neckar Valley, a tributary to the Rhine in one of the most delightful wine producing regions of Germany. ‘History saw an extension of the family tradition due to the tumultuous religious wars. New settlements were established in the rich and fertile southern Caucasus in Russia. Here, a substantial winery and distillery development extended the family experience within the industry. Human upheaval once again sourced natural extension of the family with the immigration of H Thumm. ‘He brought his colourful family traditions with him when he emigrated to Australia in 1946. Almost immediately he found the ideal site to begin his new winery: the ruins of a historic flour mill dating from the 1870s situated at the junction of two streams and surrounded by majestic gum trees. This was the perfect base for H Thumm to forge his life’s dream: a winery/chateau complex reminiscent of the old country. ‘He named the winery “Yaldara”, an Aboriginal word meaning “sparkling”. This is a very fitting name as Chateau Yaldara has become renowned for its champagnes and sparkling wines. ‘In 1947 wine production in Australia was still concentrated on ports, sherries and muscats so Chateau Yaldara extended its range to include fine vintages of red and white wines in the traditional European style. – www.thummestate.com/winery.html

Blood spilt for the cause in epic playground test John Campbell

DS Sheffield was the kid at my school who ran the fastest, scored the most tries in the footy and went head to head with Andros Kaladelfos, who couldn’t speak English, for the wooden spoon in reading and writing. As a batsman in the IVA Richards mould, he was less stylish than brutally effective in our playground test matches, and his appetite for my bowling was insatiable. Sheffield’s favourite shot was a slog over extracover. If he got onto it with more than his usual venom, he’d send the ball sailing across Unwins Bridge Road and into the yard of Tempe Boys’ High, where it would be lost forever – those bastards never gave us one back. Hatless under a blazing sun, toiling away on a blistering asphalt deck, I’d been copping my usual pasting. As the playground’s first leg-spinner since RB Simpson (it’s a toss up as to who is Tempe Primary’s most famous son – Simmo or Col Joye. Both born in 1936, they would have been in the same class.), my stock delivery was a

Nobody could believe it, least of all my victim. He glared at me with murder in his heart as he made his departure. Flushed with my historic success, I called LJ Creek in from the outer and asked him to stand at silly mid-on. Creek was less than gruntled at the field alteration, but with the master blaster gone his reaction was not as mutinous as it would otherwise have been. What neither of us knew was that Sheffield, as he stormed off centre stage, had run his hand through his oily rocker’s hair then transferred a glob of Brylcreme onto the taped handle of the bat that he gave to the next man in, FP Haines. ing 9; J Turner, M Battese 29 d G Carter, M Knott 16; J Brook, G Brook 28 d M Berger, B Saric 20; M Hannaway, R Reid 24 d B Sullivan, R Sullivan 16; Lennox Head Women Wednesday 29 September 2010 Major/Minor Pairs Competition E.

The First Test In Egypt, 2000 BC

As he did, the bat greasily slid from his grip and flew with ghastly speed and accuracy towards Creek. And you know how people say that car accidents seem like they’re happening in slo-mo? Well from the bowler’s end that’s exactly how it was. The flight of the bat from FP Haines’s hands into LJ Creek’s forehead filled a brief, poetic eternity. The thud on impact was sickening. My silly mid-on went down for the count. We dragged him to his feet, blood gushing from the wound. No less immortal than Nelson’s ‘kiss me Hardy’ was Creek’s ‘I wanna fucken go home.’ The game resumed after Mr Prendergast took him off to Marrickville Hospital to have his forehead sown back together. With LJ Creek in the tender care of Nurse Ratchett, I volunteered to open our innings. Naturally, DS Sheffield took the new tennis ball and, seeing me at the wicket, counted out the steps of his long run-up. This would ordinarily have put the fear of God up me, but something had changed forever with my earlier humbling of our bête

noir. Fluke or not, I had his measure. In he ran. I gritted my teeth, eager for the challenge, determined to show him that I would not be dislodged cheaply. Sheffield’s action was as kosher as CC Griffith’s, but noway was he going to be called. He arrived at the crease all fire and brimstone, overstepped the mark and hurled the ball with phenomenal pace. I never took my eye off it, visualising it racing past mid-off after I’d smote it with a classic drive. My shot selection was perfect and my execution text book, the only trouble was that it was done after the event – the ball hammered the garbage bin with an echoing ding and DS Sheffield gave me a GD McGrath gobful as I trudged off, another golden duck added to my annals. LJ Creek returned a few days later to a hero’s welcome (none of us had seen a stitched head before) but refused point blank to field anywhere closer to the bat than long-on, while I worked fruitlessly at reproducing that freakish leg-break, my dream of playing for Australia fading with every scorching summer.

Haines blocked my first delivery with undue caution, saw that my dismissal of Sheffield was, indeed, an aberration, and opted for all-out attack.

He stepped down the wicket, as in that famous picture of Victor Trumper, and flailed wildly at the full toss that was wafting harmlessly towards him.

Byron’s Rugby 7s turns 21

Story & photo Eve Jeffery

I can guarantee that if you have one sporting bone in your body, the most fun you could possibly have this weekend is at the Byron Bay Rugby 7s. Now we all know I can’t tell union from league or rugby from knitting, but this swift succession of games is entertaining to say the least and though not always ‘G’ rated

(in 2008 one team stripped to their undies for their knockout match), it is way too much fun. The competition gets underway on Saturday at the the Byron Bay Recreation Grounds, from and the knockouts begin on Sunday morning until 1pm. The fun really begins when the residue of 32 men’s teams from across Australia, New Zealand and Fiji will go headto-head in the finals from 1pm.

This year there will also be a strong showing from the 16 women’s teams from New Caledonia, Dunedin, Sydney and Brisbane. The ladies will battle it out with the combined USA and New Zealand girls’ team KUSA, who are tipped to beat three-time winners Eastsyde from Brisbane. I just can’t say enough to recommend you go to the event. Just do it! Ya know ya want to.

Nipper’s great weekend at Lennox Byron Bay Nippers had several entrants in the the Lennox Head SLSC Dolphin Enduro which was held on last Saturday. The weather conditions were too hazardous to hold the event in the open water, the exception being the under 17s. Lennox utilised Lake Ainsworth to hold the swim and board legs while still using the beach for the run leg of the endurance ironman event. The Under 10s and 11s did a 400m swim, one kilometre board, one kilometre run with Moby McMullen winning the under 10 males and his sister Isabelle coming third in the Under 11 females. In the Under 13s females Alex Barnes completed the 750m swim 1.5 kilometre board two kilometre run in seventh place. Stepping up to starting line in the U14 and U15s to compete in the one kilometre swim, two kilometre board, and two kilometre run, was U14 female Kisane Irwin in fifth U14 male Josh Brown second and Max Hulbert who was fifth and in the U15 males, Lorne Greenlaw secured first place.

Goalkeeper Nat overcomes life’s challenges

Local Byron football goalkeeper Nat Caldwell, was one recently of sixteen goalkeepers from across Australia selected for assessment in Sydney with well known goalie coach Jim Fraser and NSW Institute of Sport Coach, Ken Greenhead. www.echo.net.au

Since attending this camp Nat has been invited to continue his development in Sydney for the next six months, training at Blacktown Olympic Centre. This year Nat has competed in both Futsal and football. After representing Northern

NSW at the Vikings Futsal Pacific Titles, Nat was chosen to represent Northern NSW at the Vikings Futsal Nationals in Sydney in 2011 and for the Vikings Australian 16 Boys 2010 UK tour. The three week UK tour includes training and competition against the UK’s top Futsal and Football clubs, participating in Futsal tournaments at Rhyl Academy, Flintshire, Rhyl FC, Denbigh Shire. The team will also receive training with Greg Strong (Bolton), Rhyl FC, Manchester City, Liverpool and experience clubs Manchester United, Chelsea, Alston Villa, Stoke, Bolton, Manchester City, Arsenal, Liverpool and Rhydymwyn . The team will be participating in a demonstration game of Futsal before kick off at Rhyl FC and finishing the tour with a football game against Rhyl Academy. Nat is excited about the complete Football experience and will also get to see his Aunty Sarah and Uncle Chris who he hasn’t seen in three years and other family and friends who will cheer him on. Like all athletes Nat has experienced challenges along the way and last year Nat became a carer for his mum who was in a car accident in March 2008, which resulted in complex pain, spinal and nervous system injury. As a result Nat cycles 20km round trip to continue training, buying the groceries on

the way home. This added responsibility and time consumption has made it impossible for Nat to fundraise this year while meeting his other commitments. Nat is looking for assistance in the form of donations from the community to assist in the financing of his Australian Vikings Representative and training trip to the UK and is hoping to raise $7000 to cover basic costs. Every little bit helps and every cent will be well used and appreciated. Donations can be made through the Westpac bank BSB: 032 573 AC: 217 887.

tre run with Zoe Heineger third in the females and Brendan Irwin seventh in the Males. The Nippers were lucky to have Ironman Champion Zane Holmes pesenting the trophies to the lucky Winners.

ditions to overcome Roy Powers from Hawaii and fellow Aussie Chris Davidson. Meanwhile sister Tyler was in great form winning through to the semi finals at the Oakley World Pro Junior Championships in Bali on Friday. In a much anticipated clash of probably the world’s two most exciting 16-year-old surfers, Wright defeated Lakey Peterson from the USA.

The Reserve Bank of Australia’s (RBA) decision to keep official interest rates on hold is what was needed given the affordability pressure on Australia homeowners�, said Real Estate Institute of Australia (REIA) President, Mr David Airey. Just last month, the REIA reported in the Deposit Power Housing Affordability Report that affordability has reached a level that has not been seen since the third quarter of 1990 – when the quarterly average banks’ variable mortgage rates were at approximately 16.4%. The report also highlights that average monthly loan repayments are now $446 higher than they were twelve months ago. “With interest rates being a major determinant of housing affordability, Australian homeowners are already enduring affordability stress and another rate rise would have only compounded the issue,� continued Mr Airey. A rate rise this month would have seen the average Australian dedicating 35.2% of their monthly income to “The Reserve Bank is sensible to wait for the release of the household loan repayments. “With the current state of affordability, the decision to leave interest rates on hold was the Consumer Price Index (CPI), to be released this month, before making any decisions on official rates�, concluded Mr Airey. news that Australians needed,� said Mr Airey.

A private entrance provides the gateway to a long sealed driveway culminating in an extraordinary contemporary residence set amongst arguably the most beautiful established sub-tropical 2 hectare garden in the district. The expansive timber hardwood 4 bedroom home has massive raked ceilings, all new bathrooms and kitchen leading to delightful outdoor verandahs taking in the extraordinary elevated views to the Nightcap Range. Separate from the home is a charming timber studio set amongst the rainforest. With an abundance of water, solar hot water, combustion stove, established fruit orchard and expansive living areas, the owners are reluctantly selling this greatly loved property to move interstate.

We’ve had no response to our query about the disappearance of ‘Byron Shire Youth Road Toll A Tribute To Our Local Fallen Friends R.I.P.’ from Facebook but it might have been replaced by ‘In memory of our Byron Shire family & friends’ after a bit of argy-bargy broke out over Queensland drivers.

Seen last Wednesday: a group of young men laughing heartily in a dark green car on Left Bank Road, Mullum, as they overtook another car at 90kph in a 50k zone. They obviously didn’t see the Facebook page ‘Byron Shire Youth Road Toll A Tribute To Our Local Fallen Friends R.I.P.’. Or if they did, they forgot to engage their brains.

Woolworths in Mullum is developing a fine siege mentality: along with the perpetual fencing, a lovely moat develops around the building in the wet. All they need now is John Cleese on the roof doing his French knight impersonation. If anyone else littered the landscape in the manner of this supermarket giant they’d get served with notices to behave, but in this case Council and Planning NSW appear not to give a toss.
