June 2016

From books to brides - it’s a busy month!

I

AM DALLyiNG late at night with a Flamenco historical romance, am read Narnia post dinner, and only reached Magda Szubanski's earlier years (because the audio book Reckoning was so overdue, i wasn't allowed to renew it). My first Book Club offering was a very rude Dead Sexy - at least one other member besides me admitted it was funny. Last month i attended my first ever Book Club. it has been something i have wanted to be involved in for years. i am always rattling on about my latest favourites, even the talking books that have to wait until i drive miles on my own. What better than the Big Book Club, held by Maleny's Celebration of Books, plus more of the bookish delights that it offers? if you want something to read right now, HT offers a great selection for June. My goodness - it's the most pages we have published, ever! you'll find locals with international success stories, from Paint Horse competitors to artists applauded in London and with mirrors floating on far seas. There is also an interesting local who shares how crafting in a market helped her recuperate from a massive brain tumour and another inspiring

individual helping children with their reading. Read about the many events in coming weeks - Muscle on the Mountain, Gardening on the Edge, Kenilworth Quilt Show, Knitfest and don't forget - more school holidays! Plus we include some photos from the Glasshouse Business Awards (it was lovely to catch up with other business owners) and the popular Maleny Show. in the Village Wedding Expo pullout guide, the stories and images link our history to the glorious options the Hinterland offers brides and grooms today. if you are ready for still more to devour, check out our website - every day now, there are new stories about local people, local events and local businesses. it is our print date tomorrow, and since this is my last contribution for the June edition, i think i am about to dance my way back into Spain!

Regional newspapers go from strength to strength

i

T WAS WiTH great sadness that we learnt of the demise of the Range News, a weekly publication with a long history in our area. As we produce another bumper issue we want to assure locals that HT is going strong. in fact in a survey of 1,440 readers in the Think Local - News Media Research Report, our sector has almost twice the trust of television and radio. For the last two months, we have worked hard to include more news online - through our website and Facebook page. So now you will find new articles throughout the month (more HT!). unlike syndicated papers, you'll find only local news items here - many of which you haven't read before about local events, local people and local business. As an independent we don't have to rely on syndicated articles and ads like the larger players do. Our local team members and dynamic creatives ensure a top quality product, and we know from the comments we receive after every issue that our readers agree. More than half of the report’s respondents considered regional newspapers and their websites as a trusted source of information.

Enhanced Media Metrics Australia report that regional news media reaches four million residents in regional Australia. The report was commissioned by The Newspaper Works*, CEO Mark Hollands said, "The sector has a unique and valuable role in communities. Readers have an intimate relationship with their local paper that creates a highly effective advertising environment. “This campaign seeks to confirm the influential role of regional news media to both readers and advertisers. “Readers overwhelmingly turn to their local newspaper to stay informed about issues affecting their area, events in their region and to get practical, relevant information.” The report also found that 54% of people ranked regional newspapers as their most trusted source of information, followed by television at 29%, radio at 27% and online search at 18%. Regional newspapers were also the most engaging source of information, with readers 1.4 times more likely to find their regional newspaper more engaging than TV, 1.6 times that of radio and 2.9 that of letterbox dropped catalogues and flyers.

HT normally focuses on events coming up - but if your community group needs a voice, please contact us. We will do everything we can to help you get the word out about your club or organisation. it is also good news for small business. When it comes to providing information about their local communities and how to find businesses and services in their area, regional newspapers outperformed every other media at 77%. This compares with just 30% for radio, 24% for catalogues/flyers and 22% for television. in addition, regional newspapers ranked Number One for influencing shopping and buying behaviour at 37%. Regional news media readers are more likely to be high income earners, with one in three earning $80,000 or more per annum, making newspapers a source of high-value customers. The Nielsen Global Trust in Advertising Report, released last September, found that newspapers were also the most trusted medium for ads. *Conducted online by Research Now from 26 November to 14 December 2015

Maleny artist’s mirrors to sail the seas

It something seems too good to be true, it usually is. However, there is always an exception to the rule, as artist Glenys Fentiman found out. Dale Jacobsen paid her a visit to hear more and enjoy a treasure trove of light and beauty.

E HAVE ALL RECEiVED those emails: “We are interested in your work …” We just know they are a scam and ignore them. So did Glenys Fentiman when an email arrived in her inbox in March last year. But something made her investigate whether international Corporate Art in Oslo was a legitimate company. it’s just as well she did, as the company, impressed with Glenys’s glass artwork, invited her to submit a quote for six mirrors to grace Dazzles Piano Bar on Harmony of the Seas. The French-built Royal Caribbean line cruiser, accommodating over 6,000 passengers, is the largest ever to be built. “The owners stipulated mirrors from my Argentum (silver) Series, but left the design to me, so i decided on an Australian theme,” explained Glenys.

“Each element of each mirror design is hand-cut glass, and unique. Whimsically, i inserted a silver Australian coin in each mirror’s mosaic element. An accompanying plaque invites passengers to find the coin—my ‘Where’s Wally’ moment.” The very important commission is the pinnacle of Glenys’s 27-year career in glasswork. “it was a nice challenge, the best one i’ve had.” She has always been fascinated with colour and craftwork. When the family moved to Maleny in 1994, Glenys was approached to join the Peace of Green Gallery in Maleny. That gave her the inspiration to expand her work from copper-foil to mosaics. “i ended up with a lot of glass scraps—and glass is expensive. So i experimented with mosaics, originally creating lazy Susans, which remain my ‘bread-and-butter’ income. “it is fascinating the way glass responds to light,” said Glenys. “unlike painting, it changes mood with the different play of light. it comes alive.” Glenys’s whole home comes alive! Everywhere i looked, inside and out, colours danced on the walls and tabletops. She turned the kitchen light on when boiling the kettle, and the splashback sparkled.

hands-on tutorial book Embellishment for Glass Mosaic Art. Now in its third reprint, as well as an eBook, it sells worldwide to the niche market of the mosaic community. As we met, Glenys was busy filling many crates with materials for an advanced-technique workshop she will be running at Bacchus Marsh in Victoria. “Originally, it was to be a weekend workshop for 10 people, but it sold out quickly so they asked me to hold an extra class on the Monday and Tuesday. “That sold out too, so they asked me if i could stay on for the following weekend,” laughed Glenys. “With all the heavy boxes, we need to go by car.” Mark, Glenys’s husband, is the quiet helper behind the scenes since he retired from dentistry a few years ago. “i really couldn’t do it without Mark”, she said. “He prepares all of the substrates for the mosaics. We believe the back of the piece should reflect the quality of the front.” Glenys is a part of gallery cooperatives, and has been a member of Peace of Green Gallery since moving to Maleny, and is also a member of Seaview Gallery at Moffat Beach. She works well in such an ideas-rich community. it took Glenys six months to complete the six mirrors for Harmony of the Seas, each measuring 900 x 1200 mm and weighing 26 kg. “individual crates were made by the freight company for each one, then they were securely wrapped and shipped to France. i was very relieved when i got the news that they had arrived safely.” i asked her what is the next big thing, and she swept her hand around her workshop. “i’m not short on ideas. i am going to make a Glass Girl for every letter of the alphabet. So far, i have Amber, Beatrice, Celeste, Deedee, Ebony, Marina, Sandy and Shelley … i won’t stop until i have reached Zoe.”

Her workshop, filled with all manner of prepared glass— some etched, some silver-backed—is like an Aladdin’s cave of treasures. Works in progress are everywhere. Glenys themes her work into series: Rainforest Series, Art Deco Series, Magic Carpet Series, Alphabet Series (each letter of the alphabet is represented by a girl) and, of course, the Argentum Series sought out for Harmony of the Seas. “i play with different techniques, using paint or different backings for individual pieces of glass. it is important for them to stand the test of time, so i have test pieces that i prepared years ago, and monitor whether they fade or deteriorate in some way.” Over the years, friends have asked Glenys to share her knowledge, leading to workshops and the production of a

THROUGH

ADVERSITY by Gay Liddington

According to our Hinterland Times writer Gay Liddington, to characterise Maleny artist David Paulson is like describing his art. A mix of existentialism and the abstract, splashed with colour and wildness. His effulgent personality left her feeling hopeful and inspired.

A

TRiP TO ENGLAND ten years ago steered David down roads and laneways not forgotten or lost in a myriad of memories. “i was 62 years of age and had not been back since i was nine. i took my wife Judy exactly to the addresses that i remembered. We’d be driving down a road and the hairs on the back of my neck would stand up and i’d say, ‘it’ll be on the left down here’. “We walked the same laneways i used to walk down as a child. The oak trees were the same trees. We passed the church and i sat on gravestones. They were the same graves i sat on when i was a child. “And there was a tiny sign that said, ‘Syme Hall’, exactly as i remembered it from five years of age. We did that whole childhood rediscovery thing. it was very cathartic.” David’s parents had died in the war. He was fostered by an aunt who found she could not care for the child. And then he was placed in a Dr Barnardo’s home.

“My earliest memory of institution life was a place called Barrows Green in the north of England. it had suits of armour in the hallways and swords and shields on the wall. it was really quite a magical place for a young kid even though it was an orphanage. “And it was steeped in all this dark history. So coming to Australia from the north of England was astonishing. i just fell in love with the place.” David says he was selected to make the journey because he made the most noise. “One evening at dinner the superintendent asked if anyone would like to go to Australia. i put my hand up and yelled that i’d like to go. it sounded like a good weekend to me. “i was taken to a walled village called Barkingside in London. We’d do our homework about Australia and learnt that it was very hot, full of Aborigines; you’d ride horses to school and pick fruit off trees. Then we arrived in Fremantle

and discovered it was all fully civilised. i felt cheated!” The trip was an unforgettable adventure for the nine year old. However, he had been ripped from his home in Syme Hall and the family whom he regarded as his parents. David adds, “And i understand very well that the war left England with forty thousand orphans. But nobody wins in a war, particularly the children. i was just one of many.” New life in Australia began in another Dr Barnardo’s home. The child had been sent from one institution in the north of England to another institution on Sydney’s north shore. “it was just around the corner from where the Governor of New South Wales lived. And so, i was totally aware of inequality,” said David. The artist in David Paulson emerged at a young age. He created and sold his first painting in England at the age of seven. After settling in Australia he received a letter from the superintendent at Barrows Green. it contained two guineas (today’s equivalent of $100) and a request for a painting. “you know how you read stories about children retreating into books and fantasy…well mine was painting and drawing. i retreated into that world as a way of rationalising my life.” When David was ten he was collected by a couple who’d heard an appeal on the radio. it asked for families to take a Dr Barnardo’s orphan home for the Christmas holidays. “They were such simple and loving people they didn’t realise how complex i was. it was the worst decision they’d ever made. “i remember Feffie asking what i

wanted to do. i told her i want to be a commercial artist. She then asked what else i wanted to do and i said, ‘There is nothing else’. it was innate.” At high school, while it was evident David was artistic he was not afforded any artistic education. instead the teachers wanted the gifted athlete to play football for the school. The troubled teenager was deemed a failure but in fact he was educating himself. “i left school at 15 and worked in a box factory at Matraville. in three years i was designing the boxes. Two years after that i was working for one of the biggest advertising agencies in Sydney. i knew where i was going! “i worked as a commercial artist in advertising while studying art at evening classes until i was 23. Then i decided to go to art school full time and become a painter. So, the privilege of being an artist was my survival mechanism.” David’s work has been hung three times in the Archibald Prize, Australia’s coveted portraiture award. He is also a teacher at the Brisbane institute of Art and says, “it’s a great privilege to teach.” Every two years David has an exhibition at the Fireworks Gallery, Brisbane. He is currently preparing for the opening of ‘Space and Place – Paintings and Things’ on June 24, which will run for a month. “The exhibition features a series of paintings about Mt Tibrogargan where i’m talking about the space around the mountain, and more than just a landscape.” it also includes an existential expression of the Armidale countryside and sculptural style artworks of the male

and female form. in one such work the chair becomes the domestic device of women’s suppression. it’s about emotional beauty and geometry. “i don’t paint paintings about beauty because i think that if anything it makes beauty banal. i paint observations of the world or people. Nothing is more beautiful than the moment. “i used to feel incredibly isolated, marginalised and lonely and then when you get older you realise that everything is connected.” There is no doubt that David Paulson is an artist whose life reflects art. His connection with the human condition through painting is palpable…

There is something quite special about three harps in unison, it is an arresting sight and an aural treat that HT writer Dale Jacobsen has been enjoying for a few years now, thanks to Harpnotica, and she grabbed the opportunity to hear the stories behind the strings.

HAT’S BETTER THAN ONE HARP? Why, three harps, of course. i have followed the progress of the Maleny-based trio, Harpnotica, over the three years since they formed in 2013, and have been impressed with their dedication and enthusiasm. “We met at the Celtic Winter School and decided to get together once a week to play music. We haven’t missed a week since,” said Row Thomas. The impact of three harps, both visually and aurally, is not to be ignored. The trio, comprising Row Thomas and Jan and Graham Langdon, take their instruments seriously. in June, Harpnotica will be returning to Termonfechin in ireland for a five-day festival run by the irish Harp Society.

HiNTERLAND TiMES – JuNE 2016

“We went last year,” said Graham, “and it is just wonderful. We get to stay in an old country mansion along with 70 other harpists, and take part in workshops for four hours each day, learning technique and the history of the harp. “We also have access to one-on-one teaching. Then, in the evening, we sit back and are entertained by ireland’s top harpists.” Jan added, “it’s a unique experience to be able to immerse ourselves in the music; to play in a 50-piece orchestra of harps.” in 2015, Jan and Graham stayed on for a week after the festival to receive private tuition. On their return, Harpnotica hit the studio to record their debut album, Behind Bars, which has sold out. Row started playing harp in Brisbane when she was 18, under the tutelage of well-known player una Morgan. “i then drifted away from the harp, but meeting Jan and Graham has revived my interest. i had forgotten how much i

DANiEL ViOR enjoyed this music. i now teach adult players as well as performing with Harpnotica.� She still plays the harp made by South Australian luthier Peter Kempster—a 34-string gut harp constructed from Queensland maple and King Billy pine. After 30 years, Row has just purchased a Starfish harp from Scotland, and it should be waiting for her when she returns from ireland. “My dad was Welsh, and i lived in Wales for a year when i was young. i found myself really drawn to the harp, which is the national instrument of both Wales and ireland. Perhaps it’s genetic. After all, harps have been around for a very long time.� Jan took up the harp ten years ago when she bought a 34string Canadian harp by luthier, Larry Fisher. Graham said: “We played and recorded as a duo—Jan on harp and me on mandolin, bouzouki and guitar. Then i fell in love with the sound of the harp. “i now own three, two of which were made in South Australia by Tim Guster who took over from Peter Kempster after his untimely death.� The trio draws on folk music from different countries, although classical pieces find their way in at times. Graham has been a music teacher most of his working life, as well as conducting choirs, so arranging the harmonies for Harpnotica comes easily to him. i asked Graham whether the arrival on the range of Kim Kirkman has influenced people’s understanding and appreciation of the harp. “Believe it or not, Jan and i actually met Kim within minutes of meeting Row, at the Winterschool workshop. Maleny now has a very different harp culture from when we arrived five years ago.

“Jan and i began holding workshops and gradually the interest grew. Then, with Harpnotica being more visible, people started to listen to the music rather than just being attracted by the sight of three harps. “Add Kim to the mix, and harps enjoy a much higher profile than they did ten years ago.â€? Graham said they owe lots to Brigitte Schiffer who opened Le Jardin Gardens in Maleny, and Sarah Castaldi when she operated the Mary Cairncross cafĂŠ. “These two women made us so welcome whenever we wanted to play for their customers. Now that Le Jardin has become The Garden, Maleny we receive the same welcome from Kelly and Jason Pini. “And Sarah’s Unplugged has already told us we will be welcome when music is reintroduced. We perform for numerous charity functions and are happy to support worthy causes.â€? upon returning from ireland, the trio will continue their monthly workshops and, once again, enter the recording studio with all the new exciting tunes they gather in ireland, as well as a few of their own. i look forward to hearing the new CD. Graham voices their attitude to music very well: “We’ll never get rich, but we cover the cost of the instruments and the strings. “My biggest kick comes from sharing the experience of six hands on 100 strings; to see the faces of people when they listen. i just love that.â€?

Can I see you

tomorrow? by Kelli Dendle

I

’D LiKE TO BE ABLE to say that i still have that doe-eyed clear-skinned blush of youth but honesty compels me to admit that the youthful blush may have faded. Brutal honesty compels me to admit that it has not merely faded but run screaming from the building. As such, it’s been a little while since a male who wasn’t a first degree relative has more than looked up (and then down again) when i walk into the room. Let’s face it, i’m somehow invisible and usually they don’t even look up. Sorry, i digress…. What i wanted to tell you was that yesterday a young man looked into my eyes and said “Can i see you tomorrow?” i kid you not. He wasn’t accidently looking past me to someone more appealing, he meant me.

10

HiNTERLAND TiMES – JuNE 2016

After i pointed out that we’re only in the same place at the same time once a week he said, “Next week, then?” i dredged through the deep haze of memory for something to say to a young man that wouldn’t create unrealistic expectations. Just because we’re in the same place at the same time doesn’t necessarily mean … well … you know. He looked a bit crestfallen “The week after then?” he tried. i didn’t want to crush his spirit. i replied something to the effect that “i’d like that. Let’s see how it goes.” Now i know that you’re dying to know my new secret for impressing the boys. i suppose this is the moment to come clean. This young bloke wasn’t a Nobel laureate, he didn’t captain the Australian cricket team and is unlikely to bestow valuable gifts upon me (sadly). We had never met before, came together by accident and spent only an hour together, but i suspect i may have had played a small part in changing his life. you see i gave him a gift. My young man is ten years old. His teacher asked me to sit and read with him during my volunteer morning at my local primary school. There is no-one in his young life who reads to, or with, him. No-one. Ever. He bravely confided when we first met that he can’t really read. He is in the lowest reading level in his class and the other kids can out-read him with their eyes closed. Half an hour later we were walking back to the bookshelf so that he could choose another book to read. He proudly announced that he had a new hobby. “Really?” i asked “Tell me about your new hobby”. Head high and little chest puffed out he announced that his new hobby was reading books!

There are many children out there wanting to read to you - visit or call your local school and volunteer today!

The exclamation mark is his, not mine. The ‘Can i see you tomorrow?’ moment happened at the end of our hour. i carried around a kind of golden glow that stuck to my skin all day yesterday. Traffic wasn’t a problem, bills were just a minor annoyance, and family hassles were a nonevent when bathed in that golden light. in return for my gift of one hour of undivided attention my young friend gave me something that money can’t buy. And i don’t even know if there is a word for it. As it turns out his teacher was pleased but pointed out that she has three kids in that class on the same very low reading level. She is hoping i’ll see one of the other kids next week. What to do? i don’t want to live in the classroom. it’s hard to maintain enthusiasm if you have to keep it up for hours at a time. Then it struck me. You are able to run your eyes over these words and know what they mean. You have a fantastic skill.

One that you probably take for granted so much that you don’t even notice it any more. i’ll ask you to come in to read with one of the kids. An hour or two per week, or even per month. i’m just an ordinary person off the street, no special skills. What’s that? you’re too busy? Too important? This child means nothing to you? But that is the point isn’t it. if this child was yours then i’m sure you’d already be reading with them. But giving a little bit of your time to a child who you wouldn’t otherwise know is an investment in your humanity…and you can’t get that golden glow for all the money or importance in the world. Not every child i’ve worked with over the decade or more that i’ve been volunteering has been so enthusiastic. But i think next week i may be able to come in a few minutes early. Just in case my young man has an urge to read just one quick book with me.

‘Twitta Tea’ is quite possibly the world’s smallest tea plantation. The plot of 45 bushes is to be found on Derek Perry’s Witta property. Gay Liddington joined him recently for a brew to hear of a family tea journey which began in India in the 19th century and finally reached the Hinterland in 2002.

HE ROOTS OF DEREK’S family tea tree reach back to the early 1800’s in india. His great, great grandfather trader and adventurer Robert Bruce discovered a native tea plant in north-east Assam. “i have a passion for tea and say it’s in my blood,� said Derek. “Robert and his brother Charles, also a trader, went into the hills and plains of Assam along the Brahmaputra Valley where there was no European settlement. “The brothers noticed that the hill people were drinking a brew very similar to the tea that they knew. At that time the East india Company was importing from China. it coincided with a huge popularity in tea drinking right across Great Britain. “in 1824 plants were sent to a botanist in Calcutta. it was confirmed that indeed there was a relationship to the tea plant that existed in China. “Robert Bruce died that year but his brother Charles who was a go ahead individual began experimenting. “Soon it was confirmed that there was huge potential for this tea. Charles found the tea trees growing wild. They pruned them to a level that was easy for picking and under Charles Bruce’s guidance many acres of tea were established. He created what we now know as the modern tea plantation.� Chests of tea were sent to the London market to test how it would be received compared with tea from China. The outcome was favourable. As a result, tea companies were established in London with public capital. Derek recalls, “i was born and educated in the hills of

Derek Perry on his ‘plantation’

Assam at Shillong. i didn’t have any idea about my ancestors and their involvement with tea until i was about 14 years of age. “i learned that my great, great grandfather was responsible for planting out four different tea gardens in the area of the town of Gauhati, now the capital of Assam. it was inspiring. “After finishing school i went to London to take up an apprenticeship. But the call of Assam and tea planting was too strong.� A passage to india, a bungalow, servants and a car allowance afforded the 20-yea- old bachelor the lifestyle of a rajah. Add to that the many clubs built by the British establishment. They offered expatriates a heady social scene.

“i went out on a contract in 1954. They liked me and i was developing my management skills. “Labour for the Assam tea plantations was imported from central india. Workers were allocated a plot of land and by the standards of the day, they were deemed better off than other contemporary labour but gaining their trust was paramount.” The early sixties spelt uncertain political times in india. As a result there was a mass exodus of expatriates. Derek and his family returned to England where he began a new career as a bank officer. in 1973 Derek joined his sister in Auckland, New Zealand, began a new life and remarried. it was his home for 25 years. Visits to Australia with his wife Beverley, a wedding in Montville, and thoughts of retirement led the couple to discover their place at Witta 14 years ago. i asked Derek how his hobby of growing tea in Maleny began. “After leaving india and living in England in a semi-detached style house with a small backyard plot, i fantasised about having a little tea plantation. it was impossible there and not suitable in Auckland. “you have to have a humid climate, hot sunshine and wet weather to grow tea. That’s the first thing i thought when we came up here. This is ideal.” Derek then sourced the Camellia Sinensis seed from a tea estate in New South Wales. He grew the seedlings and once mature, they were transferred to a bush line. “it took about four years to produce the tea. What you’re trying to achieve with pruning is a wine glass effect. A flat top like a hedge makes it easy for the shoots to pop up. The essence of good tea is ‘two and a bud’. “it’s those fresh succulent leaves that are picked and processed. Harvesting season is November to April.” While we were drinking a brew of ‘Twitta Tea’ Derek explained the process. “The leaves are picked in the evening then placed on a tray to wilt overnight. The following morning i put them into an old fashioned meat mincer. “The ‘green’ tea has to oxidise for an hour and a half by which time it changes from green to a coppery colour. An hour and a half later i put it into the kitchen oven to dry…very rudimentary.” A four-cup a day man, Derek shares his tea leaves with friends and neighbours. its mellow flavour and fresh floral aroma has also found its way into teapots in England and Canada. it is obvious from Derek’s reflections that this journey with tea remains close to his heart. “i feel that spiritually tea is in my psyche. i talk to my ancestors too. i do this for them as much for myself. i would talk with them as i followed their footsteps in the Assam Valley. “i’d say, ‘i’m just retracing your footsteps from 100 years ago’. So that’s the fulfilment of my little hobby…”

Leading role for a quiet achiever

L

OCAL, BARBiE NORMAN, is playing the role of the wronged fiancee Angelina, in the upcoming performance of Gilbert and Sullivan's Trial By Jury, soon to be performed by Maleny Singers. Born and raisied in Zimbabwe, Barbie is no stranger to singing, "i was always interested in music and sang in the choir all my school life, but i only started serious voice coaching in my last year of school, when i began my solo career, performing in Eistedfods. it was an experience that absolutely terrified me" she said. Along with husband Mike, Barbie is one of the founding members of Maleny Singers. "We came to live in Australia in 2001," said Barbie "and i didn't do any singing until i met Margaret Taylor and she formed the group. it was at this point that my interest was

rekindled and i began taking voice lessons again." Barbie brings a wealth of talent to Maleny Singers having sung principal roles in every show performed by them. As a soprano, some of her roles have included Mercedes in Highlights of Carmen; Jill-all-Alone in Merrie England, Prince Orlolofsky in Die Fledermaus, Elsie in Yeoman of the Guard, Valencienne in Merry Widow, Patience in Patience, Diana in Orpheus in the Underworld, yum-yum in The Mikado, and Gianetta in The Gondoliers. She has also taken on minor leads as Edith in Pirates of Penzance, Cressida in La Belle Helene and Hebe in HMS Pinafore the last time it was performed in 2006. Taking on the role of Plantiff, Barbie will sing alongside tenor Chris Ward (Edwin, Defendant) whom she is suing for breach of promise, and newcomer baritone, Jim Flatt (Judge). "Trial By Jury is a witty send up of the legal system and filled with melodies well known by audiences everywhere," said Barbie "and the colourful costumes and silly dialogue make it a great family show." Performances will take place at Maleny Community Centre, commencing on Friday June 24 with a Gala evening performance at 6.30pm. Matinees will be held on Saturday, June 25 at 2pm and Sunday at 4pm. Tickets: Adult $30, Concessions $27.50, primary school children $15, and can be booked by phoning the Maleny Visitor Centre on 5499 9033.

Boben Mammen outside Adhithi in Montville

Adhithi arrives in Montville Boben Mammen recently opened his South Indian restaurant Adhithi in Montville, and praise is rippling across the range. Victoria McGuin caught up with him and found out this modern day Renaissance man has plenty to offer in addition to his delicious cuisine.

by Victoria McGuin

O

NE OF My FAVOuRiTE buildings in Main Street, Montville, with its domed roof and wrap-around verandah, has been reborn as Adhithi, which means ‘guest’ in Sanksrit. Boben Mammen originally hails from Kerala, “the only place in india with a 100% literacy rate. Education is a business over there. We export people!” he laughs. With a strong education behind him, Boben began working as an artist, painting portraits in oils for families in Kerala, until his father encouraged him to move into advertising. “i worked in advertising agencies, and back then it was all done by hand, not with computers.” He also became a selftaught graphic designer, and his skills and business acumen

led to him to becoming the head of a creative team for a Kuwaiti billionaire for seven years, travelling in his private jet and moving to the Middle East. “We built and designed a whole restaurant in Thailand and shipped it to Bahrain,” Boben tells me. “it was decorated down to the chandeliers and custom-made cutlery. “But my boss decided he didn’t like it. So it stayed closed for six months, with all the restaurant staff still being paid, before finally opening.” Eventually, Boben, his wife Anila, and their two children, Sharath and Hrithik, decided it was time for change. After a brief visit back to india, they moved to Maroochydore where Boben had regional sponsorship as a skilled migrant. “They insisted we live in Maroochydore, but there were no jobs really. it has become a youngster-dominated industry. So i went from being at the top of my game, travelling in private jets, to struggling for work. “People said, ‘why don’t you go back?’ but i knew it was better here. you throw away everything for your freedom.” By his own admission Boben is always one to bounce back, so he began painting again, oils and acrylics, and started a restaurant in Caloundra, then another in Golden Beach. “it was around this time that i saw this building advertised in Montville,” he says. “When i saw the space it just came to me. it would be a restaurant, where i could cook my own, very personal food, my own recipes. “But not only that, it has these wonderful other rooms, perfect for a gallery and selling beautiful objects and carpets.” Boben decides it is time for me to sample some of his food, and he disappears to cook. Sharon Cane, the restaurant manager, comes over to chat. Sharon used to live and work in Maroochydore and came up for her Part of the gorgeous verandah at Adhithi

Adhithi makes guests feel at home

daughter’s wedding at Spicers Clovelly. Within a short time, she “chucked everything in’ and moved to Mapleton. “it’s like someone lifts a mountain off your shoulders when you drive up the range,” she shares. My Mosala Dosa arrives, a traditional pancake made with rice and lentil batter, with a mild savoury filling and presented on a white plate with bowls of stew and chutney. it is fresh, full of flavour and absolutely delicious. The menu itself is full of interesting food combinations, from the Dosa selection to the Biriyani choices, and the simple surroundings with beautiful views add to the experience, as does the classical music from South india. “i want people to feel like they are at a friend’s home having dinner,” explains Boben. “i think hospitality is very personal – you can’t run it remotely.” Boben doesn’t plan to give the décor “indian-ness” though. “i want to create an interesting space, but one that doesn’t segregate from community. “i came to this country, and i adopted this new country. i want to celebrate that in the way i decorate Adhithi and with the art we show in our upcoming gallery, Artique Montville, and the things we sell.” Boben is busy. Not only with his new venture, but with his art, poetry, stories, iT, graphic design work and a forthcoming web/art project back in india, which fills him with joy. However, his main focus is Montville, and it seems even the grasshoppers are encouraging him. “in india, the grasshopper signifies luck or money coming,” he explains. “My father used to send money home, and Mum wouldn’t walk over the hills to the post office until she saw a grasshopper. Then the money was always there. “Now i see them in the evening here. i hope it means good things,” he smiles. Adhithi is at 6/184 Main Street, Montville, and open Mon-Sun 10am-9pm, with gluten free and vegan options. Take away available. Ph: 07 5478 5703.

Boben is also a talented artist

Hinterland Gems There is a secret in Montville, a treasure for all to discover and enjoy. A place of quiet beauty with pathways leading through rainforest at the headwaters of Skene Creek, with spring-fed lagoons providing sanctuary for local fauna and flora.

Russell Family Park receives recognition E

ARLy MORNiNG ONE hears the chatter of birds, excited at a new day; the evenings bring the haunting calls of currawongs and black cockatoos as they fly lazily overhead. All of this just behind the busy clutter of Main Street. Many resident and visitors may not know about this hidden gem. it is Russell Family Park. On Sunday, June 12, at 3pm in the Montville Village Hall, we are celebrating this treasure and we would like you to come along. Local biologist Eric Anderson will give a digital presentation, walking us through each stage of this amazing project. Artist Jim Cox, inspired to paint some of the wildlife now to be seen in Russell Family Park will launch an exhibition of these latest works. These will be hung in the luncheon room of the Montville Hall from June 11 to July 8. The Montville Village Association began this process 15 years ago, wanting to create a parkland within the village, ensuring their rainforest heritage was protected. They wanted open spaces for the community to meet in and places for children to play. They also wanted a bit more parking for visitors! Council bought this land in 1998 and extensive community consultation saw a Masterplan released in 2001. Environmental neglect had allowed huge weed trees to grow; Camphor Laurels, Privet, Celtis, and serious infestations of Lantana, Raspberry and Wild Tobacco. All tough work to remove and without Council support initially little happened.

Councillor Jenny McKay got this moving in February 2008, and a small band of local people started work. Council allocated funds each budget for removing weeds and building required infrastructure. Rainforest revegetation on the western side of the second lagoon was the starting point, and then onto the rainforest walk on the northern side. Community and school groups get involved with plantings several times a year and the first rainforest trees planted are now young giants. Frog habitats have been developed, butterfly plants are in place. The increase in birdlife is amazing, and frogs and lizards abound. A small group of passionate people gather early mornings on the first and third Sundays, and the second and fourth Tuesdays. For an hour and a half they remove weeds, plant, and weed, then share a cuppa and plan the next plantings. Eric Anderson, Diana O’Connor and Alan Felmingham are the on-going heroes of this adventure. Perhaps you would like to join in as there is still much to do adding further value with educational information, identifying trees and explaining the interdependency between fauna and flora. But now it is time to show what has been done and introduce our Range communities to this iconic place at a Presentation and Exhibition Launch. The MVA will crank up their new wood-fired pizza oven and pizzas will be available for sale. A cash bar will also be available.

for Gardening on the Edge

HE MALENy GARDEN CLuB inc. celebrates its 64th birthday this year. it began as the Maleny and District Horticultural Society and was formed on September 19, 1952. it has been in continuous operation since that date. There are currently 180 members who meet in the Old School House at Witta on the last Tuesday of each month. They are lucky to still have members up to 92 years old, who recall dancing around the floral carpet in the evening after the fairs, and money was raised by placing pennies around the carpet border as well as by an admission charge. This floral carpet idea began when storms damaged a crop of dahlias in 1953 and a carpet of flowers was created with the blooms, an image repeated at subsequent autumn and spring fairs to raise money for community groups. The Club has a continuing history of community support giving back approximately $250,000 in today’s dollars. During the intervening years members have won prizes for the best gardens on the Sunshine Coast, some of them in succession with one garden at Witta being crowned Champion Garden on three separate occasions. Because of the amount of work involved in preparing the garden designs and collecting all of the necessary blooms, in 2005 the members made the decision to change their gardening events to once yearly. 'Gardening on the Edge' was born, with six country style gardens in the local and surrounding areas open to the public each year. The Club President, Marnie Trass, said, “This year the Club will host 'Gardening on the Edge' for the twelfth consecutive year on Saturday 11 and Sunday 12 June.

Steve and Ann Robertson welcome you to their property during Gardening on the Edge Image supplied

“The CWA and Maleny Hospital Auxiliary also benefit by providing morning and afternoon tea as well as a light luncheon. “There is a Garden Market featuring growers of camellias, heritage roses, cottage plants, understory plants, and orchids as well as arts and crafts, the Maleny Garden Club plant and produce stall. “Entry to the Garden Market is free while entry to the six open gardens is $20.” The climate and wonderful red volcanic soil here means people can indulge themselves by planting things they have always wanted to, then sit back and watch them grow. “Each garden is different,” Marnie continued. “The majority (four) of them have never been opened before this year, while the others have not been seen for at least eight years, so anyone who remembers them will be surprised at the changes.

“Some gardens feature landscaping, rock walls, expansive decks taking full advantage of the views. One features a Japanese style stone garden with Oriental elements, a boardwalk leading to some surprising structures… “Others are on smaller plots but full of colour and demonstrating the owners green thumb, with everything transplanted from a cattle property in the last five years, and yet another featuring garden rooms linked together with meandering paths and mature trees.” Tickets are available at Maleny Showgrounds for the Garden Trail and Garden Market.

Narelle Hyde has been a constant in the Montville fashion industry for over a quarter of a century.

Fashion

by Michelle Gilmore

“N

ExT DOOR i've seen a bookshop, a doctor's surgery and two owners of Verde, and now a coffee shop!” said Narelle Hyde. On the other side, there were so many businesses she lost count! Narelle was born at Maleny Hospital and has lived at Kenilworth: “i was brought up on our dairy farm, between Conondale and Kenilworth.” it is a property that is now famous in the Hinterland for caravan-housed, nomadic-pastured poultry and eggs. When her parents retired from Cambroon, her brother operated it, handing it over to her niece Kacey - it is now known as Walker Farm Foods. But it was fashion that interested young Narelle. She worked for Cecily Slade in her fashion shop which opened in 1989 at Heritage House, and moved to the current location six months after. “i managed the business for 10 years before purchasing it in September 1999. We changed the name to Flair for Fashion and it has remained so for nearly 16 years.” Narelle did sell the business in 2013, but after a two year break she is back at the helm, resuming ownership. “Cecily used to design and manufacture locally," she said. "We still try to maintain Australian made product as much as possible like brands 4 Girls and Sister Sister.” “Our range is for everybody. People like to look younger. We cater for that.” Narelle knows her industry - she chooses eclectic attire that is well priced: "$99 for a dress designed and made in Australia - those prices are excellent! “i love the fashion and so does Sandy.” Sandy Reeves from Peachester has worked with Narelle for around six years - "She is wonderful, really helpful.” Sandy said she likes to show people to layer and they often tell her, “i never knew i could look like this!”

When i visited Narelle, Sandy was looking after a group of tourists. "These people come all the way from Brisbane, and they always bring friends with them!" Narelle said they have many loyal customers from the city. “But it really is the locals we rely on - all businesses need locals to be supporting them.” Flair for Fashion is open 7 days from 9.30am-4.30pm at 2/174 Main Street Montville, phone 5442 9209. Say hello to Narelle and Sandy, and browse through their enticing new season's wares.

Said Shane, "you only have to go to the High School to see there is a need (for storage). We know through our tenants that Maleny has always been growing. "it is a big investment," Shane agrees, "The kind of commitment for long term growth." They have just sold the Barrel Winery on MalenyLandsborough Road.

The HT team have recognised real growth in business confidence, across all sectors from service oriented, to professional with a rise in hospitality businesses. For instance, both Maudy's and Concept iT have extended and diversified (one of the reasons Concept iT won the Gold Glassy Business Award). Also planned are two new breweries around Maleny. District Vets are celebrating their first year in business. One of the largest construction projects to take place on the northern side of the range, Altitude on Montville has seen 15 slab pours take place at five-day intervals during construction. The boutique 23 unit, two- and three-storey hotel and restaurant development is expected to be completed by the end of September, 2016. The site is being developed by locals with more than 35 years in the restaurant and hospitality industry. The Purcell family created the very successful Montville Café Bar and Grill in 2008. The architecturally designed development provides panoramic ocean and hinterland views and represents a step forward for Montville in terms of innovative design and also job creation. interest in a retirement village in Montville has drawn positive and negative feedback, either way it shows business confidence is growing in the region.

A very special 5th Celebration of Books and you are invited...

T

HE CELEBRATiON OF (Women and) Books takes place over three days from July 1-3. There is much for readers of all ages to enjoy: a book sale and book swap in the library; bonza bookmark making for children; artistic video projection onto trees in the streets of Maleny, and narrative writing workshop for aspiring writers of children’s books. There will be a special screening of The Daughter, starring Sam Neill, Geoffrey Rush, Miranda Otto and Anna Torv, on Saturday night. Women talking Writing discussion in keeping with the theme, the session on Day 3 (Sunday July 3), entitled Selfish Strident and Shameful – Women talking Writing, promises to be a most lively discussion as some of the leading lights of Australian literature come together to discuss their process of writing. Jane Caro, author and outspoken social commentator, knows just how to connect with her audience, and her clear precise views get to the nub of the matter in language that is clear and well expressed. She is not afraid to say what she thinks because she knows her facts. Joining Jane will be Susan Johnson, shortlisted for an impressive list of awards, including various Premier’s Literary Awards. Susan describes herself as “author, incurable Australian, friend, feminist, ambivalent mother skewered by love and struck by eternal wanderlust”. She is also a woman committed to writing the best prose she can. She will bring much to the discussion. Facilitating the forum will be Krissy Kneen, a well-known and loved Brisbane-based, award-winning author and winner

of the Thomas Shapcott Award poetry collection. Krissy brings a certain zest to any panel she joins. Rare exhibition of first edition books by Australian women authors Some events over the three days will be new; some will be revisited, such as the private collection of first edition Australian books by Mt Mellum collector, Neil Glover. it all began for Neil in 1980 when he happened across a first edition copy of The Sentimental Bloke by CJ Dennis in a Brisbane St Vinnies’ shop. He now has over 1,000 first editions on his bookshelves. “Two things happened in the 1980s to change a book collector’s life,” said Neil. “Firstly, Lifeline started their annual Bookfest, and secondly, the internet. This year i found one of the rarest books that has eluded me for years: The Getting of Wisdom by Henry Handel Richardson. On eBay, of all places!” The COBM organising group is making a selection from Neil’s collection, focussing on Australian women authors, in keeping with this year’s theme. Alongside The Getting of Wisdom, books by May Gibbs, Miles Franklin, Dorothea Mackellar, Ruth Park, Katharine Susannah Prichard, Ethel Turner, Judith Wright, Kath Walker (Oodgeroo Noonuccal) and many others will be displayed, behind glass, in the Maleny Library. The rare display, curated by Sue Collaro and Fiona Dempster, will be in the library from June 18 with an official opening on June 20. To bring these books to life, a couple of Maleny’s own women authors will read short passages during the opening. While this is a free event, bookings are essential. The collection will remain on show through until Friday July 8. Big Book Club The organising group chose Charlotte Wood’s The Natural Way of Things for the signature event, the Big Book Club (Saturday July 2). This gripping and controversial novel is now the most awarded book of the year having won the 2016 indie Book of the year and the Stella Prize. Discussions at the book club will be led by an expert panellist.

For details of the programme, and booking (which is even for the free events) visit essential, http://www.celebrationofbooksmaleny.com, or ask at Rosetta Books in Maleny.

Narrative Writing for Children — Workshop A workshop for adults who aspire to writing children’s books. Presented by children’s author Aleesah Darlison who will introduce the essentials of narrative writing. Aleesah is an award winning author, well known for her picture books, chapter books and novels.

for Kenilworth Quilt Show by Michelle Gilmore

O

LiVE HASSALL BELiEVES they are on a good deal. The Kenilworth Quilter is gearing up for the annual show. The format doesn't change much, because it is so popular. "The men can sit down and have a cup of tea and something nice to eat while ladies are browsing through the quilts. The camphor laurel woodwork is interesting to the men - i think we have five craft stalls with large selections of fabric and craft items." But there is a new theme. This year Boyz Toyz means there will be lots of men's quilts. When i asked what we would see, Olive said, "For some that might mean masculine blues and browns in colours, panels with fishing or motorbikes, even aeroplanes. And

there are a lot of lovely tractor panels." What man doesn't like a John Deere? But i could tell she had some surprises in store. The tool bag of your choice is the competition - decided on by one vote per attendee. it is hush hush - you don't know who created what. Having visited last year, i have a good idea just what delightful edibles visitors will enjoy. A plethora of sweet treats and warming meals. Olive laughed, "Everybody likes our food - pumpkin soup is probably the favourite." Bring some friends and enjoy morning tea, lunch or afternoon tea, 10am-4pm, June 11 and 12 to Kenilworth Community Hall (opposite the school). Admission is only $4 and wheelchair access is now available. i asked how many of Olive's quilts we would see. She said, "i have one finished and one almost finished and one i'm thinking about..."

The Last Painting of Sara De Vos

When Breath Becomes Air

Rockhopping

by Paul Kalanithi

by Trace Balla

by Dominic Smith

“Severe illness wasn’t life altering, it was life shattering. It felt less like an epiphany, a piercing burst of light illuminating what really matters and more like someone had just firebombed the path forward. Now I would have to work around it.” Paul Kalanithi was just thirty-six years old when he was diagnosed with terminal cancer. Before entering medicine, he debated whether to follow his love of literature into teaching and writing. it’s touching that he got to do both in his short life, and that his one attempt at authorship produced the poetic and profound “When Breath Becomes Air”. This book asks some big questions - what makes life worth living in the face of death? Kalanithi died while working on this profoundly moving book. When Breath Becomes Air is a life-affirming reflection on facing our mortality and the relationship between doctor and patient, from a gifted writer who became both.

Join Clancy and uncle Egg on a rambling, rockhopping adventure in Gariwerd (the Grampians), to find the source of the Glenelg River. A story about following your flow, and the unexpected places you may go. Balla uses humour and show respects for the indigenous language and culture, and uncle Egg is so laid-back, he's likely to fall over. More than just a book about how we should understand and protect the environment, this is also a book about taking time out of busy, tech-dominated days to really look at, listen to, and appreciate all the wonders around. it's gentle but it's clear.

What a brilliant melding of subject and atmosphere. This book reads as if it were a 17th century Dutch Masterpiece -- beautiful, clear, complex and infused with both joy and longing. As good a novel as i've ever read that uses art and art history as a way of elucidating the human heart. Highly recommended! This is such a fascinating story, taking place in 3 distinct time eras: 17th century Netherlands, 1950s New york City and Sydney, Australia of 2000. What might potentially become dangerously confused in less sure hands, is here intriguing and pulls the reader on through the pages and years. Smith is assured in taking us through these times and peoples' lives; learning their secrets, their inspirations, their pain and hope and love and loss. A beautifully written book that will captivate you from the first page.

Wedding dresses through the decades

H

OW the bridal gowns change! Desley Malone from the Maleny Historical Society shared some gorgeous wedding photos and stories from the last century - including her own parents.

1916: Charles Maud (Shirley) Dickson on her wedding day 1916 St John’s Cathedral, Brisbane. She married Bill Dickson and their youngest daughter, Jean Larney and she’s about 92 and in Erowal Nursing Home. She’s lived in Maleny all her life, and were sharefarmers at Pattemore Farm for many years.

1936: Henry and Nellie (Kirk) Neilen at Albert St Methodist Church, Brisbane. Daughter Desley Malone said, "It was very difficult to buy material for a traditional bride’s dress when they married, Mum made both dresses. A year after they married they moved to Balmoral, to the farm at the Balmoral Lookout which is where they were living when I was born in 1942. My eldest brother Bruce rode a horse to school in Montville.

Charles Thorne married Matilda Burton. He and his brothers were early settlers of the Curramore area. On May 2, 1906, they were each awarded adjoining selections of 300 acres, and the back-breaking task of clearing timber began.

Jack Thorne (born in 1913) wed Margaret Cranney in Brisbane. They were to have two children: Charles (born in 1950) and Jean (born in 1957). Jack Thorne and family dairied at Curramore until December 2001, then the property provided grazing for beef cattle.

Thorne Brothers’ sawmill operated through the 1920s. Charlie and Mattie Thorne had two children: Jack and Edna.

VILLAGE WEDDING EXPO - MONTVILLE

A romantic coincidence T

AKE a quaint Anglican Church from Beerwah, add 100 years, a move to Maleny and some serendipitous path crossing, and you have a recipe for ‘it’s meant to be’.

Cheryl and Michael Gibbs were the last couple to be married in the Beerwah Anglican Church some 20 years ago, and their son Bryce was the last baby to be christened there. So far, so simple. Now comes the beautiful twist of fate. After the building was auctioned, new owners Mark and Victoria Elston relocated this idyllic building to North Maleny Road, restored it and renamed it Victoria’s Chapel. Meanwhile, Cheryl and Michael’s son, Bryce, who had grown up at Glasshouse Mountains became engaged to Brittany Toth from Caboolture. “Brittany found the chapel,” Cheryl explained she had heard about the relocated church through an old friend and celebrant, Marguerita. Marguerita had bid for it at auction years ago, but it had been bought by someone else. “We knew that it was the one we had been married in!” “So, Brittany, my daughter Chelsea, who will be a bridesmaid, and I went to have a look,” Cheryl said. “Brittany loved it. She said ‘That is where we’re going to be married’.”

Cheryl and Michael Gibbs were the last couple wed at Beerwah Anglican Church in 1993, the very same chapel where her son will be the first to marry in the new location

Cheryl approved of the restorations, “The verandah used to be on the side - and you would walk in the back, now it is out the front. Although the altar is not there I think you still get the same feeling. “I really like it. I think they have done an excellent job.” Owners, Mark and Victoria, are thrilled with the interlacing history. Their first wedding is on June 19, coinciding with the start of the Village Wedding Expo, and it is wonderful that it will be Bryce and Brittany. “What’s also funny is, I met Cheryl’s friend Marguerita last year at a Montville wedding event and found out we had both been bidding for the chapel at auction 20 years ago,” Mark said. “What an amazing litany of events has led to this wedding, with all the family so excited. Cheryl has shouted the wedding and absolutely loves the chapel.”

Bryce and Brittany will soon celebrate their wedding with Alexis and Amity

The same family that saw the close of one chapter for this beautiful building opens a new one. And, who knows, it may be the scene for future family weddings. Now called Victoria's Chapel, the family fell in love with the wedding venue

“My daughter really likes the chapel too!” Cheryl smiled.

Montville’s Cynthia House is an art finalist in London

M

ONTViLLE ARTiST Cynthia House has every reason to be excited, because her painting The Ghost in the Mountains has been selected as a finalist in the highly prestigious David Shepherd Wildlife Artist of the year Award. The exhibition is held annually in the Mall Galleries in London in June and attracts much attention, as well as a

“Exciting the Senses�

massive online audience. it is Cynthia’s deep-seated concern for endangered wildlife which is the key to her striking paintings and obviously appealed to the selectors. “This is such an honour because i know what great artistic company i shall be in, but also because the David Shepherd Foundation ensures that their profits go straight back into wildlife conservation� Cynthia said, “That is extremely important to me.� The Ghost in the Mountains is a mixed media work of snow leopards. The beautiful creatures are depicted in detail against a collaged backdrop about their region, allowing more understanding of their plight. Cynthia studied art, graduating in 2002, and has steadily found her unique style, inspired by the animals she wants others to care about and to consider. Her work is represented locally at ‘Art on Cairncross’, where her paintings have certainly found an appreciative audience and this now is another major step in her growing career.

“Mutual Respect�

B

ORN iN MELBOuRNE in 1958, Lorraine showed artistic talent from a very early age but it was dressmaking not painting she chose as her career. By the time she turned thirty, her passion for painting could not be ignored. She joined the Mentone-Mordialloc Art Group and enrolled in an art course. The following year, she won her first major award. She now has more than one hundred and fifty awards to her credit. “Lorraine is now one of Australia’s most sought after artists, best known for her iconic beach scenes and exquisite still life paintings,� said gallery director, Joan Page. “Her portrayal of still life emphasizes the natural beauty of each subject using light and shade to capture the very essence of our country’s beautiful flora.� “i love to take the ordinary and turn it into something extraordinary�, Lorraine explained. “For instance, i take commonplace objects such as tea towels, paper bags full of vegetables, bowls of fruit and vases of flowers and with the help of clever lighting turn them into something very special so that the paintings really excite the senses.� “Despite her enormous success, Lorraine’s paintings are still affordable,� said gallery manager, Lisa Powell. “She is one of our most popular artists and i can confidently recommend her paintings to collectors. We also have a constant stream of grannies coming into the gallery with photographs of their grandchildren playing at the water’s edge, wanting to commission Lorraine to do a special painting for them.� “i’m happy to do so�, Lorraine added. “But i do insist that the children are wearing sun-safe clothing and i do prefer to paint back or side views rather than portraits of the children. This way, i believe i can best capture their innocence and their sense of wonder and delight in what they are doing.� Open daily, from 10 to 5, the Montville Art Gallery is located at 138 Main Street, Montville opposite the Village Green. As from June 1st, Lorraine’s paintings will be featured under “Exhibitions� on the gallery’s website:

A

T THE START of the year a quartet of longterm friends were re-united over lunch. This simple event, brought together four of Queensland’s most respected artists and the idea of this exhibition was born. The lives and careers of Rex Backhaus-Smith, Tom McAulay, Rick Everingham and Michael Nicholas have been interwoven since the 1960s, but each has followed their own styles and directions and established themselves in the state’s cultural history. Amid the laughter and reminiscences between them, there is the unbreakable bond of art and this collection shows their exceptional range of talent. From Rex’s captivating outback narratives, to Tom’s engaging bush characters; from Rick’s evocative italian scenes to Michael’s ruggedly beautiful desert landscapes, these are all paintings of substance and meaning. Artists of such experience have the confidence to portray what they wish and to entice each viewer into their visions and that includes each other.

“Mutual Respectâ€? sums up the relationship between these four who tell stories about early days of fence painting competitions and of attending each other’s exhibition openings. They were all married men with families, so every sale or every award really mattered. “We used to think we had hit the jackpot winning $100,â€? says Tom, “and that was cause for a party!â€?, but it was the painting which truly motivated them. “i have always wanted to just share positive and joyful images,â€? says Rick and Michael adds “i fell in love with the desert country and i want others to see it as i doâ€?. This shared history through the past 50 years of Queensland art is perhaps best summed up by Rex though, “What a wonderful journey‌and still so far to go!â€? “Mutual Respectâ€?

Mungo MacCallum

Conflicted N OLD AND politically savvy friend of mine is becoming AHeseriously conflicted over the election. is a long-time and committed Labor voter, but he thinks Labor cannot win. For one thing, the devastation of 2013 was just too great; the rehabilitation will take two terms, not one. But more importantly, he regards Bill Shorten as simply unelectable: always has been, always will be. So for the party’s long-term prospects, the immediate need is to change leaders, and to do so as quickly and smoothly as possible. With the advent of Malcolm Turnbull, he thought this would happen as soon as the 2016 election was out of the way. The leader’s firewall constructed by Kevin Rudd would then become inoperable, a spill would be automatic and a more voter friendly candidate would emerge. But this scenario has become seriously problematic with the decline of Turnbull and the consequent rise of Shorten. Turnbull’s missteps have been part of the picture, but it cannot be denied that Shorten has, if not actually blossomed, at least budded quite promisingly. The embarrassing zingers are gone – well, almost; he speaks in short and pithy phrases, he connects to his audience, and he appears relaxed and confident – even enjoying the mammoth campaign. One report is that he has been taking lessons from Greg Combet, previous aspirant for the leadership before illhealth forced him out of the contest. But whatever the reason, Shorten has become competitive. it is still very unlikely that he can win, but he is likely to go close – close enough to retain the leadership, which, my friend feels, will condemn Labor to another term in the wilderness. The problem with Shorten is not just the political baggage he is still carting around: his reputation as an operator in smoke filled rooms, a faction boss who owes his ascension to the unions, a parliamentary power-broker who played a major role in the demise of two Labor Prime Ministers. All of this would be bad enough, and it is certain that the

Liberal campaign will make it sound even worse as the days and weeks go on. But it is not only the substance of Shorten, awkward as that is, which make the punters shy away from him. Perhaps more damaging still is his style. Shorten is a lot more user-friendly than he used to be, but there is still a feeling that he is too calculating, too glib – always seeking an edge. He is hardly unique in that; it goes with the job. But in Shorten’s case, it cannot be disguised – even when he is trying to appear most open and sincere, there is touch of the political operator that cannot be disguised. And the public knows it: however unhappy they may be about Turnbull’s reversals of what were thought to be unassailable positions, the Prime Minister is still seen as more likeable, and, crucially, more trustworthy than his opponent. it is a deficit which is likely to prove fatal. And although it seems certain that he will claw back a number of seats surrendered in 2013, and may give the coalition a serious fright in the process, he will not, cannot, win. So: what happens then? The party’s instinct will be to reward him for his manful effort; he will have brought Labor back from a seemingly hopeless position to one which will bring them in range of an election victory next time. But if it hesitates, the opportunity for renewal will be much more difficult: the protection program devised by Rudd will click back into place. So if the change is to be made, it would be easier and neater to do it straight away. And there are obvious contenders: the favourite would certainly be Anthony Albanese, who won the popular vote over Shorten in 2013 and is still regarded as popular among the rank and file. Another likely starter would be the deputy, Tanya Plibersek; she has considerable support, but is handicapped because in a race between her and Albanese, both are from the left: the faction would split, possibly knocking both of them out. if Shorten is seen as dispensable, the right’s candidate would probably be Chris Bowen, who has performed very

well as shadow Treasurer. He has comfortably held his own with the underwhelming Scott Morrison and effortlessly bested the Finance Minister, Turnbull’s frequently malfunctioning campaign robot Matthias Cormann. His problem is that he is even less charismatic than Shorten himself. Others in the mix might include Tony Burke, Mark Butler and Mark Dreyfus, although they are a long way behind the front runners. The young guns, Jason Clare and Andrew Leigh, will have to wait their turn. The point is that there is no lack of talent within the party, and to take the plunge might be more sensible than to give Shorten another three years, and probably another defeat. But then there is the Liberal Party, and Turnbull could be in even more strife. The rationale for toppling Tony Abbott was to hold the marginal seats – even to win some more. So Turnbull’s then popularity was the essence of the result, in which Turnbull won by just ten seats. if ten seats fall – or even a couple more – the whole exercise becomes pointless, and the Libs will explode into a decidedly uncivil war. Turnbull’s strength is that the only real potential replacement is Abbott, and although many of the conservatives would support him, it is most unlikely that the majority of the parliamentary party would reverse their decision, at least so soon. But the backbiting, the destabilising, the sniping, wrecking and undermining would intensify. Turnbull’s hopes of a clear and decisive mandate will simply not eventuate. And the signs for Turnbull are not promising. in the knockabout atmosphere in the first leader’s forum, Shorten beat him comfortably. in the more formal surrounds of the National Press Club, neither man really engaged; Turnbull made a comeback, but Shorten remained competitive. The opposition leader is still most unlikely to win. But even my conflicted friend has to admit that he is certainly trying.

Community News Community News Community News What future for Maleny Library?

Motor enthusiasts, the mountain calls!

Parents of teens - you are not alone

Dale Jacobsen visited an interesting community meeting to extend the much-loved Maleny Library, and encourages you to give feedback. Sunshine Coast Council wants to hear from you. Division 5 Councillor Jenny McKay said Maleny Library was one of council’s most utilised and valued community services. She said the Sunshine Coast Library Plan 2014-2024, the result of an extensive community engagement program, identified a need to investigate opportunities to redesign the Maleny Library, which is the second smallest in Council’s library network, but one of the busiest. “That piece of work is now set to begin and it is important that the community takes this opportunity to provide its input for the Maleny Library Facility Development Plan, which will provide recommendations to Council on the expansion of the Library,” Cr McKay said. “The feedback we receive will help to prioritise future investment that aligns with community needs, patterns and interests.” See the concept drawings at Maleny Library and help shape the future of the Maleny Library.

Having teenagers can be challenging as our children become young adults with different views on life to ours, wanting to explore the world their way or not always being able to communicate with us. Anne Delmas, Group Facilitator (pictured) said "As parents of teenagers we sometimes get isolated. Participating in a group helps to remind us we are not alone feeling the way we do, facing small and big challenges. "There is a lot of wisdom shared, a few tears, some laughter too and friendships created." These parent groups are confidential and guest speakers are invited to speak about chosen topics, such as neuroscience and parenting or dealing with trauma. if you want to share, ask questions or just connect, come and find support with other parents in a facilitated small group. The group of parents of teenagers meeting on Tuesday mornings has reached its capacity. A new group is starting on Thursday evenings 5 - 7.30pm. Please call Anne on 0490 314 011 if you are thinking of coming or for any questions.

‘Pop Up’ Art Gallery moves

Paul Cannon every Thursday

The ‘Pop up Art Gallery’ is something of an institution in Maleny, having tenanted six premises in Maple Street in just over three years. Members come and go as life circumstances change, and there are currently seven members exhibiting brand new works in a wide range of styles and media. Newest members are Michelle Maclennan (pictured) with fine detailed works telling stories of endangered species, and Rob Natoli, a well known local arts figure with lovely landscapes and wood fired pottery. Visit the new gallery at 66 Maple St, next to Telstra, and say ‘hi’ to the artist on duty.

Tracey Ferguson is the producer for the Coast’s newest theatre company, Gateway Theatre Productions, and said she and fellow founders Paul and Lucas Lynch recognised the need. “According to the ABS, close to 30,000 Sunshine Coast locals are already participating in performing arts in some form and more than double that amount attended a performing arts event or venue in the 12-month period,” Ms Ferguson said. The production company is currently undertaking casting for its October/November production, Jesus Christ Superstar, with auditions July 8-9. For an audition pack, please email info@gtp1.com.au

In the Wild

“W

HEN IS THE BEST TIME to plant in the hinterland?” is a question i often hear (and although it could be rightfully pointed out that i have a conflict of interest being in the nursery business), my answer is that in this place and with benign climate that we are blessed with, that there’s no time better than the present to plant, but as always there’s a few important factors to take into consideration. Soil moisture is crucial for plant establishment, the roots of your planted stock need to quickly move from the confines of the potting mix that they have been established in and into the soil and moist soil is crucial for this process. For the bulk of the year when high temperatures are below thirty degrees and the soil that you’re planting into is mulched you may find that you don’t need to water after planting. i often time my reveg’ plantings at home for rainy days and save having to water at all, with the added benefits of a mud bath by the end of the day. in your garden you’ll probably have access to unlimited water for most of the year so maintaining soil moisture is not an issue, just make sure you don’t over water and drown your plants, you need moist not wet . Back to reveg, the most risky time for soils drying out is

spring and early summer, but we do generally get just enough rain and mulching with hay keeps soils moist and cool even when temperatures get over the mind thirties. Beneficial supplements include water crystals to maintain soil moisture, anti-transpirants to reduce water loss from your planted stock, mulch, mulch, mulch and tree guards for tubestock. Frost is perhaps the biggest obstacle to establishing plants on the hinterland. A year or two of good growth can be burnt or damaged if a severe frost hits. Not all plants are frost sensitive and we have many frost hardy local natives that can be planted any time of year. Even frost sensitive plants can be planted once the threat of frost has been beaten by the shade and protection of more frost hardy species. Frost damage in our area primarily occurs due to the plants thawing too fast when the sun hits them first thing in the morning. Planting very frosty areas in spring after the last frost can be beneficial to establishing your stock as it allows the maximum growth period before the next frost hits. in the garden anytime is a good time to plant. For more advice of what’s best to plant and when, visit us at Forest Heart.

Feral Yellow

i

T’S THAT TiME of year, once again, and the hills are alive with feral yellow. The yellow referred to is the bright colour of the large daisy flowers belonging to Japanese Sunflower, Tithonia diversifolia. This shrubby plant can grow 2-3m tall and has greyish-green hairy leaves. Whilst frequently called Japanese Sunflower, it is native to eastern Mexico and Central America, the home ground of quite a lot of our weeds. Whilst in flower, it is certainly eye catching but for the remainder of the year those large swathes and patches are a dirty grey-green and decidedly unattractive to both people and livestock, although goats will break it down and eat at least some of it. However, letting goats loose except under strictly controlled conditions, is not generally recommended. A monoculture of this plant is of absolutely no value to our native fauna, and it will certainly spread to

form a dense mass, excluding all other plants. The message to everyone, Councils, Main Roads, and private landholders, is to get rid of the patches before they spread. The plant is susceptible to spot spraying, cut and paint methods and manual removal. Since it is flowering now, make sure all accessible flower heads are removed and bagged before seed is set. Once it has spread across a steep hillside, it is much more difficult to control. And now for another daisy. Montanoa hibiscifolia, closely related to Tree Daisy and also cultivated in gardens, is native to East Africa, and is a weed of roadsides, rainforest margins and the banks of watercourses. Flowering usually follows that of Japanese Sunflower and these daisies are white. it is not as rampant in its growth habits but does, nevertheless, need to be controlled. Remove the flowers before

Japanese Sunflower, Tithonia diversifolia they set seed. We have a wonderful climate here in the Hinterland, which regrettably, also favours weeds. Controlling them is an ongoing battle but it’s a battle worth winning.

of frost is ideal with soil PH of 6-7.5. The root system is fairly shallow therefor a sheltered sunny position with good friable soil is best. Pruning top growth in early Autumn after fruiting to encourage lateral branching and to keep the shrub compact is recommended. Pests and disease is usually not a big problem. Root knot nematode, scale and aphids may be problems that need to be dealt with, however i have grown Acerola cherries on the range for many years with no significant disease problems. The fruit is best eaten fresh and raw discarding the couple of seeds inside.

PRINCIPAL LAWYER

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU ARE AN EXECUTOR Being appointed as Executor of someone’s Will means that you are the person with the primary legal responsibility for the carrying out of the deceased’s wishes as noted in that person’s Will. This ‘administration’ of the deceased’s estate involves winding up the deceased’s affairs and distributing the assets to the entitled beneficiaries. Above: Greg Jenkins and his three daughters Hannah, Claire and Jamie-Lee who look forward to opening their show bags

A source of great confusion to a lot of executors is the topic of Probate, what it means and when and why it is needed.

Left: Arianna, Tara, and Alannah enjoyed rides at the show

Probate means that the authenticity of the deceased person’s Will has been proven and confirms the Executor’s authority to administer the estate in accordance with the provisions of the Will. The process of obtaining Probate allows others to object to the Will, and if there are any objections, to determine if the Will is valid, because it is always possible that: 1. there was a later Will (which, if valid, would replace the older Will), or 2. the Will was made at a time the deceased was not mentally competent to make a Will, or 3. the Will was the result of fraud, mistake or “undue influence” or 4. the Will was not properly “executed”, or

5. the so-called Will is actually a forgery, or 6. for some other reason the Will is not fully valid. Obtaining a Grant of Probate means that the court has recognised that the Executor has the right to administer the deceased’s estate and also that the Executor has title to the assets of the deceased in his or her capacity as the legal representative of the estate.

i recently re-visited a large Eucaluptus Dunnii, Dunn’s white Gum, that we had pruned back significantly after it had been damaged in the extreme weather event that was Ex-Tropical Cyclone Oswald which hit Maleny on Australia Day, 2013. This visit was part of the planned management of this large specimen, which has a DBH, or Trunk Diameter at Breast Height, of more than a metre and was originally 35 metres tall. Due to the damage it had sustained, and to eliminate risk to the surrounding buildings, we had to reduce it back to a low framework of just over 8 metres tall. The purpose of the visit, and the point of this article, is to stress the importance of managing the suckers that regrow on many species after they have been reduced. These suckers, known technically as epicormic shoots, grow rapidly, generating a large sail area, but are only weakly attached to the main trunk and can fail in the next good wind, so we came back to shorten these suckers to reduce their sail area and give them more time to bind onto

the trunk. We also carried out some formative pruning to ensure a structurally sound canopy in the future, and removed some deadwood. We will re-inspect in another two years, when another light prune may be required, but after that it should be strong and sound.

The Maleny State School students Archer Sayer, Olivia Henzell and Tristan Audley are looking forward to the under 8's day. Teacher Lindy Hocks has been at the school for 16 years, when the under 8's day was already a firm fixture in the school calendar - her favourite thing about the day was the "joy on children's faces." Lindy said there would be real community involvement with stories from a town librarian, local musicians John Mays, Col Finley and Lisa McDonald playing, and the flexischool display at the newsagent plus they will help create a mandala. Chappy Becky is planning shaving cream finger paint and face painting. Other fun on the day includes mask making, puppets, playdough, an obstacle course, wind spinners, kites, chalk art, painting and much, much more. P-2 students, Kindy, daycare, the River School and playgroup are all invited and the wider Maleny Community will be celebrating under 8’s Day on Wednesday, June 8 from 9am – 10:30 am.

Wild animals can have major impacts upon lifestyles in and around the Sunshine Coast Hinterland, and a team from Griffith university is looking for participants to help with research into responses. The team, led by Prof. Darryl Low Choy, wants to interview people about their attitudes to wild dogs in and around Kenilworth, Obi Obi, Mapleton, Flaxton, Montville, Diamond Valley and North Maleny. These former rural areas are undergoing significant changes, and have a diversity of residents and land uses. The research is investigating the potential for community-led responses in areas like these. “Capturing the diverse voices of the community is a fundamental first step to investigating and facilitating a community response”, says Dr Edward Morgan, a member of the research team, “and we would love to hear the views and thoughts of readers of the Hinterland Times”. if you would like to participate in an interview or find out more about this research, please contact Dr Edward Morgan on 07 3735 9248 or email ed.morgan@griffith.edu.au

Kids with dogs or siblings more independent

Medicinal cannabis approved

C

M

HiLDREN WiTH AN older sibling and/or a dog are more likely to be allowed to walk around their neighbourhood on their own, according to a study, led by Dr Hayley Christian from uWA’s School of Population Health, published in the Australian and New Zealand Journal of Public Health. Dr Christian said it was widely accepted that fewer children were being allowed to walk around their local area without adult supervision due to parental concerns over issues such as stranger danger and traffic.

iNiSTER FOR HEALTH Cameron Dick said feedback from Queenslanders showed overwhelming support for medicinal cannabis.

“Of the more than 1000 people who had their say, 96 per cent were in favour of medicinal cannabis as a treatment option,” he said. Mr Dick said the approval cleared the way for medicinal cannabis oil capsules to be administered to a Queensland patient following approval for importation from the Therapeutic Goods Administration. “This is an Australian first. The granting of this approval represents the first, legal, medically-supervised application of medicinal cannabis in this country,” he said.

It’s junk free June! uEENSLANDERS WiLL GiVE uP soft drinks, sugary treats and unhealthy indulgences next month to raise funds for Cancer Council through its newest campaign – Junk Free June!

Q

“We know up to a third of all cancers are preventable through simple lifestyle changes including maintaining a healthy weight, eating a healthy diet, limiting alcohol and being active.

Spokesperson Katie Clift encouraged Queenslanders to jump in and give up junk this June to support Cancer Council Queensland’s vital work in cancer research, patient services and prevention.

“This is also a fun way to get friends and family members healthy – you can participate as a group and pool your funds to make an even greater difference.”

“The Junk Free June rules are simple – decide on a ‘junk food’ to give up, register online and get people to sponsor your efforts,” Ms Clift said.

Register now at junkfreejune.org.au – and check out the prizes, recipe ideas and hints. “Why not set a goal to incorporate more physical activity during June too?” Ms Clift said.

“Everyone has their own ‘junk’ to give up – from soft drinks to chocolate, takeaway foods or snacks high in saturated fat, sugar or salt.

“Many Queenslanders aren’t offsetting the extra kilojoules they’re eating, which can increase the risk of becoming overweight and obese.

“Going junk free this June will benefit your personal health and wellbeing, and make a difference to the one in two Queenslanders who will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime.

“Aim to get moving for your health this month – join a gym, find a workout buddy and aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity every day for overall health.”

In Fitness ...and in Health Chronic Stress and Adrenal Fatigue

O

NGOiNG STRESS, whether it be structural (spine and joint problems), biochemical (digestive issues for example), or emotional, will over time deplete your adrenal glands. So ask yourself, do you have some or all of the following signs and symptoms: • poor resistance to flu and colds • fluid retention and elevated blood pressure • rise in triglycerides (leads to rise in incidence of heart disease) • in women, tired adrenals can cause and/or intensify menopausal symptoms such as headaches hot flushes, insomnia and irritability • men can also experience these symptoms as well (male andropause) • lowered libido • memory impairment • poor sleep patterns (eg get to sleep, wake up but can’t get back to sleep) • arthritic pain. All of these signs and symptoms further stress the body and the adrenals will eventually get to a stage where the glands are exhausted. This is chronic fatigue, both physically and mentally. And at this point, your coping mechanism is not healthy. i use Applied Kinesiology and a holistic approach to diagnose the causes of your adrenal fatigue and then correct them. Once the adrenals are healthy again, the ageing process slows down and as long as you maintain the improvement, your energy levels will stay high. Joh n Pir ie Give me a call, i’d love to be able to help.

Ayurvedic Health Advice to Suit You

Improving Digestion

i

N THE PuRSuiT of losing or gaining weight, avoiding allergies to certain foods or maintaining steady energy, the Wendy Rosenfeldt emphasis is usually on what to eat or not eat. However a properly functioning digestive system is a vital ingredient for balanced weight and overall well being. Ayurveda has some simple tips to enhance your digestion. Eat according to you appetite. Forgetting mum’s advice about it being polite to eat everything on your plate and ignoring nutrionalists recommendations that 12 serves of fibre per day is necessary, eat to suit your hunger. if you can’t digest the food it will just sit in your stomach and create a sticky substance that causes blockages in the body. Ayurveda defines this undigested substance as Ama. it can manifest in a variety of forms, such as cellulite or cholesterol, stiffness in the joints, skin problems or congestion. Eat in a settled manner. This means turning the T.V. off and restraining yourself from sending text messages while you eat. How many people sit down to dinner with stories of devastation and violence every evening? We metabolise everything around us, everything that we see, hear, smell, taste and touch creates an impression on us. When we are tense or excited our body goes into the flight or fight response, the blood flows to the extremities ready for action thus weakening the digestive processes. Eat at regular mealtimes. Our metabolism gets used to processing food at a certain rate and if we give it a regular intake

of food, it can provide us with a constant supply of energy. if we skip meals or overindulge, the digestive system spends a lot of energy coping with the changes. Constant snacking is synonymous to adding raw ingredients into a soup that is already cooked. The soup never gets quite done but the energy is required to keep the cooking process going. it is the same with our digestion; we create strain on our digestive system if we eat small amounts all day long. Live in accordance with nature’s cycles. Midday is the best time to eat your main meal. The sun is highest in the sky and our digestive fires are also strongest. Food eaten at this time is more easily digested than a meal taken at night. it is preferable to eat smaller amounts at breakfast and dinner. During the night the body is cleaning out the impurities in the physiology. if you are struggling to digest a heavy meal, the overall metabolism is impeded. Eat, Drink and be Merry! it is important to enjoy your food. The widespread misconception that anything you love to eat is bad for you is putting out good appetites everywhere. When we are happy, we create chemicals in the brain which are conducive to good health. Sitting down to a meal in a pleasant environment with family and friends will be more easily digested than miserably ploughing through the healthiest food imaginable.

Its that time of the year again

T

HE DAyS ARE BEAuTiFuL the nights are cooler and its time to get the woolies out once again and begin to implement a few habits that will give you greater protection against colds and flu’s. During winter its best to cut down on your intake of dairy products and white starchy foods, these can increase the mucus levels in your body and you don’t need that. its also important to increase your intake of healthy fluids, like healthy herbal teas (lemon honey and ginger, peppermint, or honey and a sprinkle of cinnamon) experiment with what your body best enjoys and also increase your filtered water intake. Though it might be tempting to stay indoors, get outside and move your body, your lymphatic system will get the benefit that the increased circulation brings while also enhancing your mood and filling your lungs with fresh air. and that warm sunshine will top up your Vitamin D3 levels which are shown to increase your immunity. Oral hygiene is important and so is regular gargling. you can use a little salt in water or even a squeeze of lemon juice. Look at taking a Vitamin C supplement, though you don’t need large doses, best to accept natures timely gifts of abundant fresh

citrus fruits and berries. Keep ventilation flowing in the home, and if a cough or a cold does sneak up on you consider investing in a good humidifier, the gentle steam alone or with a few drops of essential oil often makes breathing easier. Adequate sleep and keeping your stress levels low will take unnecessary burdens off your immune system leaving your body more refreshed and able to maintain optimal health and well being. A little raw honey on a teaspoon is one of the best ways to treat a cough, it soothes the cough while also having an antibiotic action, however if the cough persists, consider professional advice. Olive leaf, Echinacea, and Andrographis are some of the herbs that help to boost the immune system and help treat colds and flu’s, remember though all herbs are potent, they work wonderfully but it is best to check with a professional before self treating.

ADVERTORiAL

Research shows the majority of shoulder problems will settle with exercise, modified rest and re-education. Although osteoarthritis is uncommon in the glenohumeral joint, subtle changes in the bone may be present that can predispose to specific conditions developing. Acromial spurs are an example of this. Diagnosis and treatment must be tailored to the individual client. Early diagnosis and physiotherapy treatment will produce quicker improvements and better outcomes in the majority of clients.

Physiotherapy can help ...

shoulder disorders

If you are experiencing shoulder pain, come in and see Tim or Mary Bagshaw at Maleny Physiotherapy.

T

HE SHOuLDER COMPLEx is a complicated area. it consists of the glenohumeral joint, acromio-clavicular joint, sterno-clavicular joint and scapulothoracic articulation. There is minimal bony support which enables a large range of movement to occur through the upper limb. This leads to problems as in essence, the shoulder complex is controlled by soft tissue. The gleno-humeral joint has often been described as a watermelon on a saucer. This is not far from the truth. The rotator cuff muscles need to work in good synchronisation, with supportive ligaments for effective shoulder function. A full subjective and objective assessment of the shoulder and surrounding areas can be a lengthy process but is essential for good clinical outcomes. There are three main subdivisions into which shoulder disorders nearly always fall: 1. impingement/rotator cuff injuries 2. instability 3. adhesive capsulitis/capsular restrictions. it is also important to consider other factors when assessing a shoulder disorder: • referred pain (from the cervical or thoracic spine) • sporting technique including equipment changes/modifications, eg. tennis racquet change • biomechanical and postural issues.

if these factors are not addressed they will affect the healing process and the patient’s outcome. A thorough subjective and objective assessment is important. Experience in orthopaedic shoulder tests is vital. Shoulder range of movement, scapulathoracic rhythm, strength, impingement and stability tests should be an essential part of your assessment to assist diagnosis. if necessary, imaging will also assist diagnosis.

Prevent Inflammation! We all know the burning throbbing sensation of inflammation with injury or infection. But what about the inflammation we can’t see? The type that is concealed within the body’s tissues and organs causing gradual dysfunction and degeneration? All chronic diseases may have one major trigger in common; inflammation, which has been linked to everything from heart attacks

and strokes to type 2 diabetes, Alzheimer’s disease, arthritis, allergies and cancer. In a healthy body the process of inflammation offers protection. Injury mobilises immune system components to launch the inflammatory cascade, resulting in a physical and biochemical barrier to infection and a heralding of the processes involved in tissue repair. However chronic inflammation harms rather than heals, because the immune system response never shuts off. Whether it be free radicals, altered pH, corticosteroid dysregulation with stress and poor sleep, leaky gut, toxins in

our environment and foods or the foods themselves which are triggering an immune response, the rising incidence of chronic inflammation and auto-immune disease is truly alarming. Changes to diet and lifestyle can be the first step to better health: • Alkalise • Restore gut barrier • Protect gut microbiome • Detoxify • Eliminate pro-inflammatory foods • Consume anti-inflammatory foods • De-stress
