Amazing kitchen facelifts

Undercover Blinds have you covered

Chris Reynolds started Undercover Blinds in 2007 primarily as an installations company. Then two years later he saw an opportunity in specialised external applications. “When I was a contract installer, we installed for quite a few companies in and around Melbourne and I saw how we could improve and do it much better. At that point I decided to go out and give it a go. I started with working out of the shed at home, and then in 2009 we began our first stage of manufacturing,” with the opening of our first factory. “Within the first two years we had outgrown the factory and had to get a larger premises and started to focus on a key group of products relating just to external applications.” These days, Undercover Blinds have a full range of internal solutions without forgetting our roots as a specialised external fabricator.

Stay fit and healthy thanks to Peninsula Aquatic Recreation Centre Regular physical activity provides huge health benefits – helping to prevent diseases such as diabetes, reducing symptoms of depression and anxiety and improving overall wellbeing.

But unfortunately, 1 in 4 adults don’t get enough physical activity. According to the World Health Organisation, it is recommended that adults between the ages of 18 and 65 years should do at least 150 to 300 minutes of moderate intensity physical activity each week.

Help, inspiration and motivation is at hand thanks to the friendly team at Peninsula Aquatic Recreation Centre (PARC), who have made it their mission to keep the Frankston and Mornington Peninsula communities moving and engaged in physical activity. Three of our valued PARC members share their motivations and celebrate their health and wellbeing journeys. Meet Shannon

Making a splash for mental wellbeing

Shannon’s remarkable story is harrowing, but also inspirational. Contracting Coronavirus in 2020, Shannon was quarantined in her bedroom for over six weeks.

The usually fit and healthy young woman was extremely ill, lost a significant amount of weight and suffered painfully from muscular atrophy. Her recovery was a slow process, but PARC was there to provide practical assistance every step of the journey. Shannon started out with online exercise, yoga and meditation classes offered by PARC via the free online exercise platform PARC Your Way www.parcyourway.com.au When Shannon was strong enough, she started swimming regularly in the outdoor pool at Pines Forest Aquatic Centre. “This was my saving grace in my recovery journey back to health,” Shannon said.

Shannon added: “The Pines Pool had such a positive impact on my wellbeing. Not only for my physical health in regaining muscle mass and lung function, but the emotional healing after such a traumatic ordeal.” Meet Rod

Runs on the board for a healthy body Rod holds a Complete PARC membership – giving him unlimited access to PARC’s state of the art health club and aquatic facilities.

Starting out in PARC’s Beginner Outdoor Run Program, included for free as part of his PARC membership, Rod has lost over 10kg and can now run 10km non-stop.

During the COVID lockdown, Rod participated in many PARC Your Way classes and viewed Nutritional Seminars and ‘Mel in the Kitchen’ videos for free. A beaming Rod said: “I didn’t think I could look or feel this good. I have never felt better. I have more energy and now I’m working towards running 15km without stopping.”

Meet Meryl

All for run and run for all: fitness = friendship

PARC member Meryl finished her first half marathon at the Mornington Running Festival in May this year. A regular participant in the PARC Fit Running Group, Meryl exercises because it makes her feel good and she gets to catch up with friends. Meryl said: “Being a member of PARC Fit Run holds me accountable. If I’m not there, the group asks after me and it makes me want to get out the door and get active. “I was so proud to cross the line after my first half marathon and it was so nice to do it with my crew from PARC,” Meryl said.

PARC is the premier health and wellbeing facility in Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula region. Located in the heart of Frankston, PARC boasts two world leading waterslide rides, an Olympic-sized

Day against discrimination Rainbow flags took flight in Frankston last week to mark International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, Transphobia and Intersex Discrimination. See story page 2. Picture: Yanni

Scrapped car park plans a ‘broken promise’ Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au PLANS to build more car parking at Seaford and Kananook stations have been scrapped. The Liberal government pledged funding to build extra car parks at the Frankston line stations in the leadup to the last federal election. Funding for Frankston Station car parking was topped up in the federal budget for 2021/2022, but funding for Seaford and Kananook stations was absent.

The Times sent questions to the office of urban infrastructure minister Paul Fletcher asking why the project was abandoned. A spokesperson for the minister responded “based on advice from the Victorian government and local councils, the Commonwealth has withdrawn funding from a small number of projects where the Victorian government or relevant local council has advised that the project cannot be delivered with the funding committed or where there was no feasible site or design options. This includes the Seaford

and Kananook commuter carparks.” “The funding that had been committed for both Seaford and Kananook commuter carparks specifically will be redirected to the construction of an alternative carpark along the same rail line following advice from both the local and state governments. “Should the Victorian government or local council come back with an amended proposal for the projects, the minister stands ready to discuss it. For example, Frankston City Council has advised the Commonwealth in the

last week that, following recent council elections, it has changed its position and is no longer opposed to carparks at Kananook and Seaford.” Dunkley MP Peta Murphy said that the “broken promise from Scott Morrison will leave locals disappointed”. “The promised 100 space commuter carparks at both Seaford and Kananook train stations have been scrapped by the Morrison government,” she said. “It just shows that it was an announcement without any consultation or plan for delivery.

“It isn’t good enough for Scott Morrison to constantly make announcements and then not deliver. Announcements are just political set pieces, delivery is all that matters. The Morrison government owes our community an apology.” In a statement on social media, Frankston mayor Kris Bolam said he held out hope that a solution could be reached. He travelled with council CEO Phil Cantillon to meet with ministers earlier this month. Continued page 3

Rainbow flag in full flight in Frankston THE rainbow flag flew proudly over Frankston last week for International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, Transphobia and Intersex Discrimination. The flag was raised at numerous locations across the region on 17 May, including Frankston Hospital. Peninsula Health CEO Felicity Topp said “this isn’t something that we are committed to supporting once a year, but every single day.” Peninsula Health LGBTIQ+ com-

munity advisory group member Byron Croft said “we are now a community striving together, from the highest level, towards inclusion and understanding for us and every person. This will be achieved by education and guidance in a constantly evolving environment.” The rainbow flag was also raised at the Frankston Civic Centre at an event attended by MPs Paul Edbrooke, Peta Murphy, Lee Tarlamis, David Van, and the mayor Kris Bolam. IDAHOBIT is observed on 17 May,

the date that the World Health Organization removed homosexuality from the classification of diseases and related health problems. The IDAHOBIT website states that 75 per cent Of LGBTQIA+ youth have experienced some form of discrimination, and that 39 per cent of LGBTQIA+ people have experienced depression in the past year.

Lantern festival this weekend

PRIME Minister Scott Morrison visited Leawarra station in 2018 to commit funding for the extension of the Frankston line. Since then no more money has been put into the project, and car parking promises on the line have gone unfulfilled. Picture: Gary Sissons

Solutions sought over rail impasse Continued from page 1 “While council is pleased to see enhanced car parking at Frankston Station reflected in the budget, we will continue to work with and advocate to the federal government to see if a solution can be delivered at Kananook and Seaford,” Cr Bolam said. “It is my hope that all seven hundred car parks can be delivered as per the coalition’s 2019 commitment – and if council has to use its land holdings to get the remaining car parks for Seaford and Kananook railway stations over the line, so be it.” In February this year a spokesperson for the Department of Infrastructure,

Transport, Regional Development, and Communications told The Times that “the commuter car park upgrades at Frankston, Kananook and Seaford railway stations are currently in the planning stage with consultation between the Australian and Victorian governments and Frankston City Council ongoing. All projects vary in complexity and are required to go through appropriate planning before construction can start.” Elsewhere in the budget, the federal government says that funding for the Baxter rail extension is still available. The federal government pledged $225 million to the project in the leadup to

ing safe place to strengthen the health and wellbeing of the growing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community and drive strong social, economic and cultural outcomes for the community.” The event will also feature performers and food trucks. The Spirit Dreaming festival runs from 5pm to 10pm on 28 May, 32 Nursery Avenue, Frankston. To register go to djambana.org.au or enquire by calling Naaz Stojkova on 0492 427 065.

the last federal election. Senator David Van said “with more people returning to public transport, the network needs to be ready to meet future demand. The federal government is ensuring locals can get to work and home sooner and safer.” The pledged funding remains well short of what would be needed to actually complete the project. A business case estimated the cost of electrifying the Frankston line to Baxter at between $1.3 and $1.5 billion (“Business case casts doubt on rail extension”, The Times, 19/11/20). The state government has not made a funding commitment to the project.

Thanks given to Frankston’s volunteers ROY Giesemann’s love of Frankston hasn’t dwindled since moving here four decades ago. The 91-year-old settled in Frankston in the early 1980s. In the 2000s he was involved in the establishment of the Visitor Information Centre, where he continues to volunteer today. “We fell in love with Frankston and wanted to contribute to the promotion and development of the tourism industry here,” Mr Giesemann said. “I was 75-years-old and starting to wind down from full time work when my wife Marie saw an article in the paper talking about the development of a Visitor Information Centre in Frankston. I attended the council meeting in 2006 and the VIC was developed in 2007.” National Volunteer Week was last week, from 17 May to 23 May. Frankston councillor Suzette Tayler said that without volunteers like Mr Giesemann, the area would be a lot worse off. “All our volunteers do us proud and continually demonstrate the true meaning of community spirit – from council services such as meals on wheels and the visitor centre to numerous noncouncil services including opportunity shops and not for profit organisations, every day we see volunteers going above and beyond to enrich the lives of others, bring people together and improve our social wellbeing,” she said. “Roy is an incredible ambassador for Frankston, along with our 30 other visitor information centre volunteers. They are integral to the running of the centre and do a great job assisting visitors and promoting our wonderful city.”

with Brodie Cowburn

Donated food stolen at school TWO people are wanted for breaking into John Paul College in Frankston last month. Police believe that between 2am and 4am on 7 April, two men broke into the school by cutting into the fence. They arrived on bicycles. The men allegedly forced their way into the school’s community food trailer. They stole an Esky and some donated food. Police have released CCTV images (pictured left) and descriptions of the two offenders. They describe the first man as “caucasian, approximately 20 - 30 years old with reddish hair and a tattoo on right hand” and the second man as “wearing black hoodie with text on the rear”. Anyone with information can contact Frankston CIU on 9784 5127 or anonymously contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Breaking in A MAN has been arrested for allegedly breaking into a Frankston home armed with a firearm. At around 10.40pm on 1 April, offenders allegedly forced their way into a Nursery Avenue home. Police say that they were “armed with firearms and other weapons and made demands for property”. Last week on 19 May, police made one arrest in relation to the incident. A 21-year-old Cranbourne East man was arrested and charged with ag-

gravated home invasion with firearm, theft of motor vehicle, possession of drugs, and assaults. The arrest came after a search warrant was executed at a Cranbourne East home. The alleged offender appeared at the Melbourne Magistrates court.

Son charged with mother’s murder A MAN has been charged with murder after the death of his mother in Chelsea. At around 10.30am on Saturday, 15 May, police conducted a welfare check at a home on Drinan Road in Chelsea. When they arrived they discovered the body of 78-year-old Judy Bednar inside the house. Police issued a statement saying that the death of the Chelsea resident is “suspicious”, and that an investigation had begun. On the morning of 17 May police arrested Ms Bednar’s son, Thomas Bednar. They brought in the 53-yearold Chelsea man near his home to interview him. Later that day, police charged Mr Bednar with one count of murder. The accused man was scheduled to appear at the Melbourne Magistrates’ Court on the evening of 17 May. Police are still seeking more details to help with their investigation. They have asked anyone with information to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential report at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au.

Tribute to trees in library mural A NEW mural has been installed at the Seaford Library. The artwork, by Melanie Caple, features coastal banksias, a tea tree, and a swamp gum. The trees are inspired by those seen at Kananook Creek. “I featured botanicals that are indigenous to the Kananook Creek area. I was particularly excited about painting the tea-tree – those flowers are so beautiful,” Ms Caple said The mural makes use of the library’s entrance sign, front, and side walls. It is coloured with whites and greys, as well as highlights of orange, yellow and pink. The mural is one of many pieces of street art that can be found around Frankston. Street art walking tours can be booked to see the best and brightest. For more information visit www. discoverfrankston.com

Roads close to install bridge beams LANES on Lower Dandenong Road and the Mornington Peninsula Freeway will temporarily close this week to accommodate works on the Mordialloc Freeway. The westbound lanes on Lower Dandenong Road between Woodlands Drive and Howard Road will be closed 9pm until 6am each night from 24 May until 28 May. Work to install new bridge beams will take place while the lanes are closed. The southbound lanes on the Mornington Peninsula Freeway between Springvale Road and Thames Promenade will be shut each night between 9pm and 5am from Sunday 30 May until Tuesday 1 June. In April, project crews installed 42 beams for the twin bridges over the Waterways wetlands. 40 beams remain to be installed. New drainage and traf-

fic lights were also constructed, and asphalt was laid on Lower Dandenong Road at Howard Road. This month, Mordialloc Freeway project crews have planned to install beams for the bridge over Lower Dandenong Road, lay new asphalt on the Mornington Peninsula Freeway entry ramp at Springvale Road, build bridge retaining walls at Governor and Springvale roads, and continue work on the twin bridges over Bowen Parkway. They are scheduled to finish installing the remaining beams for the twin bridges over the Waterways wetlands.

Talks on future of estuary’s reserves MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire is investigating whether more planning controls are needed to protect the environmental values of the Balcombe Estuary Reserves. The estuary is one of the peninsula’s major waterways and regarded as a significant natural asset. The reserves are rich in biodiversity and offer picnic tables, playgrounds, fishing platforms and walking tracks and boardwalk alongside Balcombe Creek, extending from the bay to Nepean Highway and on to The Briars. Other recreation facilities include tennis courts, cricket and football ovals, pistol club, and bowls club, as well as Mount Martha PreSchool and maternal and child health centre. The shire is concerned that, with increasing population, the environment and the recreational facilities of the reserves will come under increasing pressure. A draft Balcombe Estuary Reserve Ecological and Planning Study aims to protect and enhance the biodiversity values of the reserves. The goal is to balance the preservation of the reserves’ ecological values while supporting sport and recreation uses of the area. “We want your thoughts on how we can best balance sport and recreation and the environmental significance of the reserves,” the mayor Cr Despi O’Connor said. The shire is recommending a new planning control have the power to limit the impact of future development and vegetation removal on the environmental significance of the area. It recommends small pockets of land be rezoned where the zoning does not match the current or

future land use. It is acknowledged that some planning controls protecting the environment may restrict certain community facilities and expansion of sport and recreation facilities. The shire may need to either buy land in or near Mount Martha if these facilities need to expand or dedicate parts of the reserves for recreational needs over environmental protection. A community consultation period runs until Monday 28 June. Those wanting to be involved can visit: mornpen.vic.gov.au/balcombeestuary They can then fill out the survey and/or make a submission. Hard copy forms are available at shire customer service centres. An information session is to be held online, 11am-1pm, Monday 31 May via Microsoft Teams. An in person drop-in session is being held 5.30-8pm, Wednesday 9 June, at Mornington Park Pavilion (9 Flinders Drive, Mornington). To RSVP for an information session visit mornpen.vic.gov.au/balcombeestuary.

Rescuers at the cutting edge DROMANA and Langwarrin CFA brigades are among the first in Australia to receive cuttingedge, battery operated road rescue equipment. The three new tools include a cutter, spreader and hydraulic ram. They are battery operated and don’t require an external power source as well as being waterproof allowing greater access to road crash victims, including in drains and waterways. The tools costing $214,000 were funded by the Transport Accident Commission and the CFA. The two brigades are among the CFA’s 21 Road Crash Rescue Principal Providers across the state with specialised equipment to perform rescues. Last year the CFA responded to 4290 vehicle accidents across the state, with 170 requiring help from a rescue crew with about 80 people having to be cut from their cars. CFA Chief Officer Jason Heffernan said: “Our firefighters attend thousands of motor vehicle accidents each year so it’s important we have the most up-to-date equipment.

“These new cutting-edge, battery-operated tools will boost our capability and give our firefighters the best chance at saving community members trapped in vehicles.” The road rescue equipment comes as CFA recognises National Road Safety Week which honours those lost on our roads and raises awareness of road safety. Officer Heffernan said the campaign asks us to “pledge to drive so others survive” by behaving safely and responsibly on our roads. “Road trauma incidents not only impact our communities, they also deeply impact our firefighters and other emergency services personnel,” he said. “Many road crashes can be avoided. Every Victorian needs to play their part in ensuring they are vigilant and safe on our roads. “Let’s help reduce Victoria’s road toll by looking out for each other on the roads – your life and your loved ones’ lives depend on it.” Road users are encouraged to take the pledge online at roadsafetyweek.com.au

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

The Future of the Naval Base Discussed Compiled by Cameron McCullough REPLYING to a series of questions by Mr H. Gregory, M. P in the House of Representatives, the Minister of the Navy stated that the estimated expenditure on the Flinders Naval Base at Crib Point for the current financial year was £105,075. This was made up of £87,486 under the Works and Railways Department and £17,589 for the Navy Department. The expenditure for works included provision for sewerage, power station, coal elevators, water and fire services, hot water system and boiler house, laundry, drying rooms, residences, roads, footpaths and dredging. The Navy Department provided for expenditure in connection with the manufacture and erection of power and auxiliary plant required for lighting purposes and for power for workshops used in training of naval ratings. Certain buildings were also to be adapted for the accommodation of mines. The total expenditure to June 30th, 1920, was £723,055. The Minister declared that further expenditure at the Crib Point depot would depend on experience and future naval developments, so it was not possible to lay down arbitrarily the amount required for proposed works. This would not be the base for submarines and destroyers as designed in Admiral Sir Reginald Henderson’s report. It was intended at present that the depot should be used as a training establishment only, but future developments and the result of the next Imperial Conference, might make

it necessary to modify the present policy. *** MR W. Walker, who has been under the care of Dr Maxwell, suffering from swollen liver, is progressing satisfactorily. *** MR G. W. Wells, left Frankston on a motor trip to New South Wales last Monday. He was accompanied by Mr J. A. Cameron, Mrs Cameron, and Mrs Petrie. Miss Gregory also formed one of the party as far as the Victorian border. Mr. Wells will return with Mrs Wells who has been holidaying at Cootamundra. *** THE Frankston Caledonian Society held a committee meeting on Wednesday evening. There was a good attendance and considerable business was disposed of. Mr Milner Macmaster reported that arrangements had been completed for holding the first of a series of Scottish Concerts on Friday, 17th June, for which event a very fine programme was arranged, including some of the best Melbourne and district talent. *** AT the Frankston Police Court on Monday last, before Cr W. P. Mason and Captain S. Sherlock, J’s.P., the following cases were disposed of: May v. Baker – Claim for £6 12s, for rent of premises at Edithvale. There was no appearance of defendant. Verdict for amount claimed, with £1 11s 6d costs. May v. Baker – Illegal detention of

an iron sink valued at £3 3s. Order for the amount or the return of the sink within 7 days, with £1 11s 6d costs. In reference to the shooting tragedy at Carrum, Clement Eyles was yesterday found not guilty at the Supreme Court and immediately discharged. *** THE ladies of Frankston were invited by the Mechanics’ Institute committee to meet last Monday evening to discuss the question of arranging a bazaar to raise funds to pay for the extension of the main hall, which work the contractor commenced last week. For some reason not at present apparent, not a solitary representative of the fair sex responded to the invitation, and the committee, which has incurred a liability of nearly £200, could suggest nothing better under the circumstances than to adjourn for a week. Another effort is to be made to get the ladies together next Monday night at 8 o’clock. As the Mechanics’ Institute belongs to the people as a whole and is largely used by all sections of the community, it should not be difficult to enlist the sympathies of at least half a dozen willing workers who have the welfare of the town at heart. *** ONCE again the Mornington Racing Club has assisted very materially the Soldiers’ Memorial Fund as the result of last week’s race meeting. Mr Herbt. Downward, the club’s genial and highly efficient secretary, has notified Mr Vicars that a sum of £100 will be available for the

Frankston Memorial Fund, and a similar amount for Mornington. The races provided by the Mornington Race Club are steadily gaining in popularity, thanks to the forward policy of the management. In view of the uniform courtesy and consideration experienced at the hands of President McArthur and his committee it is difficult to understand the grievance voiced by a correspondent in another portion of this issue. That a satisfactory explanation exists, there can be no doubt. Mr Downward’s practical sympathy with returned men is beyond question. *** A PAINFUL accident and one that might have easily had more serious results, happened on Sunday last. Mrs John Maloney with her child were sitting in a jinker, while the pony was quietly grazing in front of the house of a friend. The pony became startled and rushed off. Mrs Maloney, in her anxiety to protect the child, lost control of the reins. The trap collided with a fence, throwing both occupants out. Mrs Maloney being thrown against a post, receiving a severe shaking and lacerations to her head. The child was not so seriously hurt. The sufferers are under the care of Dr Somers, of Mornington, and are progressing favourably. *** ONE of Hastings’ leading orchardists, Councillor H. E. Unthank, has replaced his waggon and team with an Internationial motor van. For many years Mr Unthank devoted the best part of two days every

week during the season in conveying his produce to the Melbourne market. It was a dreary undertaking, entailing long hours, and exposure to all kinds of weather. With his new motor van Mr Unthank can leave his home with a two ton load late in the afternoon, and pull up in the Melbourne market 3½ hours later. The return trip occupied only 2½ hours. Mr Unthank is now learning to drive his up to-date vehicle, which is specially built for the service and is capable of carrying 90 cases. *** LIEUT. Ray Parer will begin a flight around Australia on May 30th, for the purpose of raising £15,000 for the purchase of an aeroplane for a transPacific flight. Thos. H. Ince, the Morris magnate, has offered £30,000 to the first aviator to cross the Pacific. All his Frankston friends will wish Lieut. Parer a safe flight – and success. *** THE Railway Department states that the Frankston line will be electrified (complete) by August, 1922. The contractors’ promises, however, were cabled before the coal strike in England. If the strike continues, the lines to be electrically operated in 1922 will be delayed beyond the dates forecasted. *** FROM the pages of the Frankston and Somerville Standard, 20 May 1921

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

The Quagmire and the Questionnaire By Stuart McCullough I PAUSED. Up until then, I’d been tearing through at what I can only assume was world record pace. Consistent with my long-held philosophy that all administrative tasks should be treated as some kind of competitive time trial, I had hoped to be pen-down long before the recommended time was up. But now I was stuck. Having come to a screeching halt, I stared at the page as the question in question (so to speak) sat there, taunting me mercilessly. The query that had so quickly left me immobile, slack-jawed, and gawping was this: how would you describe yourself? Here’s the thing: I wouldn’t describe myself. Not ever. It’s something that I’m quite comfortable leaving to others. Whether this can technically be considered a ‘life-hack’ or just outsourcing, plain and simple, I couldn’t really say. In asking others what they think of me, I’m sure there’d be no shortage of adjectives, depending on to whom you spoke. Some of them you could probably print. Whatever the case, it really shouldn’t fall to me. To be frank, I simply don’t think I’m capable of being objective. In fact, I’d go so far as to describe it as a classic conflict of interest. When faced with a questionnaire, there are multiple approaches you can take. For those whose natural inclination is towards modesty, answering questions about yourself can be a real problem. Modesty is an endearing quality, but it does nothing for accuracy. If you answer questions of a personal nature that way, you end up describing someone other than your-

PAGE 10

Frankston Times

self. No good can come of it. The best I could come up with was ‘punctual’. As fine a quality as turning up on time may be, it’s a long way from inspiring. If modesty is out, then it raises the question of whether hubris might be the way to go. At least there’s no fear of underselling yourself. In hiphop terms, this requires you to be your own ‘hype-man’. While being a ‘hype-man’ is absolutely one of the things on my bucket list, I always hoped it would be as hype-man for somebody else, rather than for myself. But beggars can’t choosers, not that a hype-man worth his salt would ever concede to being a beggar under any circumstance. But filling a question-

25 May 2021

naire as if you’re Mohammed Ali in your spare time might be off-putting and no more informative than being modest. I began to write the words, ‘I am the greatest!’ before thinking better of it. Put simply, I knew it was a boast that I’d be unable to back up. Perhaps I was looking at things the wrong way – being asked to describe myself was, instead of a burden, an all too rare opportunity to say anything I wished. In effect, I was being granted total creative control There is no wrong answer and, by definition, the task is entirely subjective in nature. Given complete freedom to say whatever you like, how would you describe yourself? Seizing the opportunity, I wrote ‘sophisticated, urbane and – to

put in bluntly – a borderline genius.’ But there was something missing. With a family full of journalists, it should have occurred to me earlier to try and tell both sides of the story. Balance demanded that I serve up a dose of both yin and yang in the hope the two might balance out. I added: ‘however, I accept that this is wildly inaccurate’. I then said: ‘Others might say that I’m punctual and worry too much about filling in questionnaires. They may be right.’ While this restored the equilibrium, it also left the reader to decide for themselves much like one of those ‘Choose Your Own Adventure’ books. Which might entirely defeat the purpose of the questionnaire in the first

place. Perhaps I’m out of practice. Maybe I was looking at it all wrong. Why settle for using boring old words when you a submit a self-portrait? I immediately got to work, sketching out an idea that involved me, a velvet jacket, clutching a pipe with an Irish Wolfhound at my feet. After seven hours of brushstrokes and a hail of colours, I remembered that I can’t paint. At all. In fact, I couldn’t paint a bookshelf, much less a person. In answer to the question, ‘how would you describe yourself?’, the answer my painting gave was ‘splodgy and indistinct.’ Perhaps I could answer as though I was the subject of an advert. For a moment I considered something along the lines of ‘sleek, sophisticated and the very height of German engineering.’ Granted, that sounds more like an Audi than it does me, but it looks good on the page. Or perhaps I could do it as a late-night infomercial, with each morsel of information followed by ‘but wait! There’s more!’ I wrote what I could and saved my answers. Hopefully, my description of myself wouldn’t be marked as a ‘fail’. Or mistaken for something I cut and paste from Wikipedia describing someone else. For safety’s sake, I’m hoping that whoever has to read it is unfamiliar with the life of Burt Lancaster. Shakespeare once said, ‘To thine own self be true’. But Shakespeare never had to fill in a questionnaire. Perhaps the whole miserable experience is best summed up in something else he wrote – ‘To be or not to be – that is the questionnaire’. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Stonecats flex their muscle, big win for Bombers DIVISION ONE

By Brodie Cowburn THE Stonecats remain on top of the MPNFL ladder after another impressive victory on the weekend. Frankston YCW played host to Rosebud at John Coburn Oval. The Stonecats raced out of the blocks in the first quarter. A five goals to one first term put them in the box seat early. Things didn’t get any easier for Rosebud in the second quarter, as YCW continued to put pressure on. A four goals to none second term saw the Stonecats go into half time with a 56 point lead. Rosebud showed some fight after half time, but the damage was already done. Frankston YCW ended up winning by 69 points 16.15 (111) to 6.6 (42). Matthew Troutbeck and Christian Tsiampas kicked four goals each for the victors. Frankston Bombers scored a big win on Saturday, defeating Sorrento in a hard-fought match. Both sides traded blows in a tense contest. The Bombers led by just two at half time, and six at three-quartertime. With the game in the balance, the Bombers held their nerve. A seven goal final term saw Frankston Bomb-

ers get the win 12.12 (84) to 17.12 (114). Alex Harnett and Khan Haretuku were named the Bombers’ best, having kicked four goals each. Mt Eliza got the better of Dromana in a low scoring affair at Emil Madsen Reserve. Both sides struggled to hit the scoreboard throughout the afternoon. Despite kicking just three goals in the second half, the Redlegs managed to win 7.13 (55) to 5.9 (39). Elliot Simmons was named Mt Eliza’s best for the day. Edithvale-Aspendale worked hard on Saturday, but weren’t able to back up their good win from last week. They were defeated by Red Hill, but were competitive throughout the day. Edi-Asp led at the first break, before the Hillmen wrestled back momentum. Red Hill secured the win 13.6 (84) to 15.15 (105). Jake Mold and Chris Irving were among the best. Bonbeach has a good day at home, dominating Pines 17.15 (117) to 4.4 (28).

DIVISION TWO

By Brodie Cowburn A HUGE eleven goal haul from Jackson Calder was the highlight of the day at Alexandra Park on Saturday. Calder’s Mornington thrashed Crib Point. Crib Point couldn’t get close to Mornington. The Bulldogs scored freely, putting 24 goals on the scoreboard throughout the day. Of their 24 goals, 11 came off the boot of Jackson Calder. The star forward hasn’t been at his best in the last couple of games, but put on a show on Saturday to remind everyone what he is capable of. He has now booted 42 goals in eight games this season. Mornington ended up defeating Crib Point 24.15 (158) to 9.10 (64). Chelsea also had a day out on the weekend, defeating Tyabb by 119 points. Jack Francis was Chelsea’s best, kicking nine majors. Curtis Bywater also contributed seven goals to the scoreboard. Chelsea won 5.13 (43) to

25.12 (162). Somerville also scored an impressive win on the weekend, defeating Devon Meadows. Both sides came into the contest in a decent position on the ladder, but Somerville were the more impressive outfit on the day. The Panthers struggled to keep up. Lachlan Williams, Thomas Roberts, and Andrew Fergusson led from the front in best on ground performances. Somerville secured the points with an 18.13 (121) to 10.6 (66) win. Karingal had a bad day at home as they played host to Seaford. The Tigers were terrific. They restricted the Bulls to just one first half goal, squashing their hopes of a victory. Seaford triumphed with a well-deserved 7.9 (51) to 13.14 (92) win. Around the grounds, Hastings and Langwarrin also claimed wins. The Blues were inaccurate but still won 9.9 (63) to 12.24 (96). Langwarrin kept up their excellent start to 2021 by defeating Rye 14.15 (99) to 6.5 (41).

McDermott wins it for Baxter SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie BAXTER triumphed in a nine-goal thriller against local rival Somerville Eagles at Tyabb Central Reserve on Saturday. One of the games of the season had spectators spellbound as the visitors recovered from a two-goal deficit to win 5-4 and clinch the inaugural Eagles Cup, which will be contested each time these sides clash in the league. Football Victoria CEO Kimon Taliadoros witnessed the gripping contest and presented the Cup to Baxter captain James Foster along with a trophy struck by FV especially for the occasion. Taliadoros had just watched a battle with wild momentum shifts and stunning goals. Here’s how the action unfolded. 19th minute: Bryce Ruthven’s free kick from the right to the far post is headed back across goal by Zach Karolidis to Dave Greening whose side-foot volley from close range puts Somerville 1-0 up. 22nd: Somerville assistant coach Stan Packer is left yelling at his players over slack marking that allows Charlie Parker to level with a low shot into the far corner. 25th: Luke Grant loses possession inside Baxter’s defensive third presenting Naseer Mohammad with a gift that he gladly accepts and the home team is back in front. 34th: A bizarre moment where a blatant handball to block a Nat Daher header right in front is unpunished then seconds later Jack Elliott goes for a low header and a wild swinging boot has referee Charlie Dass ruling dangerous play and pointing to the penalty spot. Grant redeems himself with ease and it’s 2-2. 46th: In the first minute of time added in the first half another Ruthven free kick, this time from the left, sees Karolidis head the ball down and it bounces up and off the crossbar only for Greening to volley over. While half-time allowed players and spectators alike to catch their breath it didn’t take long for the action to heat up again. 47th: Greening sets up Conor Mc-

fall whose neat finish gives Foster no chance and restores Somerville’s lead. 50th: One of the reasons Greening’s goals are the stuff of legend is because of his ability to think quickly and act decisively. Pressure from Karolidis forces a poor clearance. Greening spots Foster off his line and from long range strikes a superb shot over the stranded keeper and into the unguarded goal to make it 4-2. 57th: A cracking left-foot drive from Ben Meiklem gives Somerville keeper Nathan Brown no chance and suddenly Baxter has a lifeline. 74th: Let Lachie McMinimee free at your peril. Daher sets up McMinimee down the left and he slips the ball under Brown for the leveller.

84th: The moment that won the match. Baxter substitute Niko Juric drives his free-kick on the right to the back post and big Matt McDermott’s header is decisive. In other State 4 games Seaford United drew 2-2 at home against Keysborough while Chelsea went down 3-1 away to Springvale City. Seaford’s star striker Dylan Waugh returned from suspension and scored both of his side’s goals, the second from the penalty spot. Despite the dropped points Seaford is now unbeaten after nine rounds of the season and is second in the league but this Saturday it is away to champion elect Noble Park United which thrashed promotion contender San-

down Lions 6-0 last weekend. In NPL2 news Langwarrin defender Vojo Milojevic and striker John Maclean have signed with State 1 NorthWest side Fitzroy City. Langy had to settle for a point last weekend when it drew 0-0 at Lawton Park with Kingston City. In State 2 news Skye United beat Peninsula Strikers 3-2 in Friday night’s derby at Skye Recreation Reserve. Mark O’Connor put the hosts in front in the 23rd minute following up a Jack Gallagher shot that Strikers second string keeper Caleb Phillips, deputising for injured Robbie Acs, could only push wide and O’Connor finished easily. Then O’Connor set up Jason Nowakowski in the 40th minute who made it 2-0 from the right edge of the box with a shot across the keeper and inside the far post. But Ben Doree struck from the restart when he broke into a one-on-one and rounded Skye keeper Jonathan Crook then calmly struck the ball past Billy Painting on the line. Ten minutes into the second half Doree’s pace got him clear again to make it 2-2. The winner came in the 60th minute when left-back John Andrinopoulos cut the ball across the face of goal and Mitch Blake’s low shot beat Phillips at his near post. Harrison Michaelis returned to Skye last week and was in the starting lineup. Skye’s depth has been tested recently with injuries to Caleb Nicholes, Daniel Attard, Dean Piemonte, Alex Rojas and Daniel Walsh while Travis Ernsdoerfer has joined State 5 side Casey Panthers. “I wasn’t really enjoying football in the higher leagues so I’d rather drop down and enjoy my time for the rest of the year,” Ernsdoerfer said. Nicholes and Walsh came off the bench in the second half against Strikers while Piemonte and Rojas are expected to return to full training this week and Attard (calf) is probably a fortnight away. In State 3 Frankston Pines have signed former Langwarrin and Doveton midfielder Brandon Giles and con-

tinued their march towards the title with a 5-2 home win over Diamond Valley United last weekend. A Joe O’Connor hat-trick, his first for the club, and a double from CJ Hodgson took care of business. Rosebud was the only local State 5 club to win last weekend beating Bunyip District 2-1 while Aspendale Stingrays lost 3-2 to Mentone who scored twice in the last minute and Mount Martha went down 2-1 at home to South East United. Rosebud’s Stef Papaluca returned from a two-week suspension only to be sent off nine minutes into the clash at Bunyip but Dougie Cunnison scored from the penalty spot after Cory Osorio had been fouled and the 10 men led 1-0 at half-time. A Liam Lenders’ header in the 77th minute made it 1-1 but a through ball from Rosebud player-coach Mark Pagliarulo allowed Chris Parry to chip advancing Bunyip keeper Dimitri Sougioultzis for the winner in the 83rd minute.

Neindorf salutes for first time at Flemington HORSE RACING

By Ben Triandafillou APPRENTICE jockey Lachlan Neindorf has landed his first winner at Flemington in sensational fashion aboard $126-pop Romancer on Saturday 22 May. The Mornington-based apprentice took the Grahame Begg-trained gelding back towards the rear of the field in the 1200m straight race before unleashing his run along the inside. He put a winning break on the field and held on to score by one-length over the fast-finishing Amy and Ash Yargi-trained I’m Telling Ya. The win also provided Neindorf with his second Stakes success. “He was super. That’s my first one [at Flemington] but I’ll take it in a Listed race,” Neindorf said post-race. “He’s only better as he gets out over further ground but I just dropped him out the back and he relaxed and travelled nice. When I blew him up on the inside I thought I was going alright.”

Pinecliff, Mount Eliza-based trainer Grahame Begg said he was surprised at the odds of his consistent galloper. “My wife said to me ‘I don’t think you’ve ever had a horse go around at 150-1’. I’ve had some at long prices but I thought he was well over the odds,” Begg said. “He’s got a very good Flemington record but over a bit further distance.” “He’s a grand old horse. He puts in every time he goes to the races. It’s fantastic to be able to get a Listed win with him.” Begg said he would look to continue Romancer’s successful record at Flemington as he gears up for the Winter Championships Final at Flemington in July. Romancer’s record at headquarters now reads three wins and five placings from his 14 starts.

Lardners Solicitors - not just lawyers! Lardners Solicitors and Prudent Legal recently merged into a single firm to provide clients in the Frankston and Mornington Peninsula region with legal services backed by a strong team and significant depth of resources.

Jimmy Lardner was the founding principal of Lardners Solicitors in 1991. In late 2003 he sold the firm to Charles White. When Charles retired in March this year, Jimmy took the opportunity to merge his old firm with his then existing practice, Prudent Legal.

“Charles built this firm to an excellent level of dedication and quality of services to the community. It is with great pleasure that I take the baton from him to continue this trajectory and commitment upon which this firm’s foundations were laid long ago. Our clients have at their disposal the wealth of knowledge, experience and resources accumulated over close to 30 years of our continuous operations” says Lardner.

“Education, guidance, encouragement and support is what our solicitors intensely focus on when working with clients. We are very conscious legal journeys are often difficult for many of our clients. Clients can experience a range of emotions, changing needs and stresses. We deeply understand this and take the responsibility to help them navigate and make pragmatic decisions carefully

Solicitors Jimmy Lardner and Andrea Griffiths as they travel through their matter to completion. A prudent approach to a prudent pathway leading to a prudent destination is how we work to achieve an outcome for our clients” says Lardner.

Lardner says he cannot emphasise enough that whilst Lardners Solicitors is excited about continuing to innovate through better utilisation of technology for convenience, cost control and efficiency,

it will never waver from engaging with and deeply understanding each of its client’s needs foremost through good old fashioned friendly chats. The firm’s solicitors freely visit homes, hospitals, aged care and retirement villages to assist seniors and others with special needs for legal services. After hours and video conferencing appointments and meetings are also made freely available to assist other clients unable to make office visits.

When clients tell us “I want a solicitor

who takes time to listen, understands my

issues, supports and gives me advice that is applicable to my specific needs” we

get that. It’s just the way we have always practiced, says Lardner.

Lardners Solicitors are located at Level 1, 65 Mount Eliza Way, Mount Eliza.

When Shane and Maxine Kelly opted for a career change in the 1990s, initially, they had no idea where their journey would take them. However, with family, people and relationships being important to them, it seemed a natural progression to return to study and become certified carers. Once qualified they gained valuable experience working in aged care facilities, and for various In-home care agencies. They soon noticed a gap in the industry for in home care providers and support services along the Mornington Peninsula. Subsequently, in 1999 Shane and Maxine started After-Care from a spare room in their Rye home. Over the years, After-Care has been recognised for its contribution to the local community by being awarded multiple Business Services and Business Excellence Awards. “We also proudly support many local sporting and community groups through valued sponsorship” said Shane.

After-Care’s mission is clear and concise. We are passionate about providing quality in home care with a strong client focus.

Perfection is our goal. Excellence is tolerated. We have earned a solid reputation built on honesty, trust, reliability and respect.

Today, Shane and Maxine both remain the driving force behind the day-to-day running of the business, and the core values that After-Care upholds.

Now a Registered NDIS Support Provider and Approved Aged Care Provider for Home Care Packages, After-Care continues to deliver high quality in-home supports to older people and person’s with a disability so they can remain living independently in their local community. With a purpose-built office in Rosebud on the Mornington Peninsula, After-Care employs local Carers and supports over 600 people each week across the peninsula, Frankston and surrounding suburbs, so they can remain living independently at home. After-Care also assists people looking to enter the industry by offering traineeships to people with a caring nature who are looking for a rewarding career as a Carer.

They offer a range of bins for scrap metal collection for industry and domestic supplies. They can also arrange to have loose loads collected. They offer very competitive pricing on all non-ferrous loads as well, including domestic and industrial. Western Port Metal Recyclers 1953 Frankston-Flinders Road, Hastings Ph:0418 524 433
