Surprise Australia Day honour drops in on Clifton Springs defender Rex BY KIM WATERS WHEN Rex Ruwoldt opened the letter announcing he would receive an Order of Australia Medal he almost dropped it in surprise. The founder and honorary secretary of Darwin Defenders Association “often” received letters asking him to provide award references for other ex-soldiers. “But this time the award was for me,” he laughed. The Clifton Springs 88-year-old earned his Australia Day medal for his community service with the defenders association, comprising exservicemen who fought to protect Darwin in World War II. Mr Ruwoldt started the association 11 years ago to raise awareness of the defenders. “I was getting crankier and crankier that there was no recognition for those who defended Darwin. People had no idea what we did.” Mr Ruwoldt landed in Darwin aged 17 a month before the first Japanese bombings to join other Australians as the “first defence” against an enemy landing. “We were told that in the event of a landing we had to delay the enemy until enforcements arrived. We had enough ammunition for five minutes and there weren’t any enforcements, so it would have been a very short delay. “The government imposed strict censorship on us, so we couldn’t talk to our families about what we’d done – some even thought we’d been on holidays!” Borough of Queenscliffe handed out its own Australia Day awards, naming Alan Joyce and Patrick Callahan citizen and junior citizen of the year respectively. The borough also awarded Point Lonsdale Primary School’s grade three and four students for their campaign against plastic bags.
It’s an honour: Rex Ruwoldt has been recognised for his work spreading awareness of the Darwin Defenders. Picture: Tommy Ritchie 59346
Super plan wins nod BY KIM WATERS A NEW IGA supermarket will help keep down grocery prices while creating employment opportunities at St Leonards, according to Geelong’s council. Councillors voted this week in favour of rezoning land at 1364-1372 Murradoc Road for the proposed supermarket. Ward councillor John Doull said the proposal was a boon for the Bellarine Peninsula after “various petrol stations and
St Leonards set for groceries ‘competition’ supermarkets” closed in the past few years. “It’s very important to create that intention for developers to put in place services that are taken for granted in Geelong,” Cr Doull said. “It’s important for the local economy that we do have more supermarkets.” Cr Doull said the new IGA would com-
pete with Drysdale’s Safeway to create a “competitive” market, which would reduce grocery prices. Shoppers would also enjoy expanded choice from the presence of a second supermarket, he said. “It will also create more employment opportunities.”
Mayor John Mitchell said the IGA would “strengthen” St Leonards’ activity centre while encouraging additional development. Council’s exhibition of development plans for the site early last year attracted one submission objecting to the proposal, a report to council said.
The objector later withdrew the submission after changes to the plans reduced amenity impacts with dense landscaping and a higher acoustic fence. In November an independent panel recommended that council adopt the plans with “minor changes”. Council will submit the adopted amendment seeking rezoning to Victorian Planning Minister Matthew Guy for approval.

Duo wins gold at championships BY ERIN PEARSON GEELONG’S newly crowned disabled athletics world champions will return home with gold medals and records after blitzing their competition in New Zealand this week. Kelly Cartwright, who lost her leg to cancer at age 15, smashed the long jump world record for leg amputees on Sunday with a 4.9m
leap to score her first IPC Athletics World Championships medal. On Tuesday she earned her dual medal win when she took out the 100m. “I don’t think it’s settled in,” Cartwright said. “I can’t thank my coach Tim Matthews enough -) only months ago I was in hospital recovering from surgery.”
Geelong’s Richard Colman will also bring home gold after winning an 800m wheelchair race. The Athens Paralympics 800m gold medallist pushed hard through the second lap to secure victory with a new world championship record of 1.41:58. “I’m happy with my results. It’s the start of a big campaign,” Colman said.

‘Novice’ pens top ABC tune BY ERIN PEARSON A NOVICE North Geelong songwriter has won an ABC radio program’s nod as the best song of 2010 with an emotive ballad about the First World War. Michael Whittle said he composed Last Man From Dunolly in January last year for friends and family travelling to France for ANZAC day. But he was overwhelmed with attention after the ABC’s Australia All Over program broadcast the song nationally. “My music has been my avocation, the thing I do in my spare time, so everyone’s sort of
chuffed,” Mr Whittle said. “It’s been a nice surprise, especially for the family whose uncle I remembered.” Mr Whittle said the 5533 Australian soldiers who died in the 1916 battle of Fromelles inspired the song. He had tried to capture the sadness of communities when many Diggers returned to town alone from the battle. The retired Geelong College computers teacher said he had been “inundated” with emails and phone calls requesting copies of his song since program presenter Ian ‘Macca’ McNamara announced
Last Man From Dunolly as the top song. “I’ve posted out about 70 so far.” Mr McNamara, whose show features on 774 ABC’s Sunday morning schedule, said Mr Whittle’s composition was a “great little Australia song”. “You only have to look at what happens on Anzac Day in Australia to see how much a song like this means to many people.” he said. “Lots of little country towns like Dunolly lost lots of folk aged 18 to 25 , so it’s a little piece that says a lot about Australia and Australian country towns.”

New $23m pier ‘set to host visiting cruisers’ BY ANDREW MATHIESON A NEW Yarra Street pier will provide a berthing facility to meet increasing demand for cruise ships to visit Geelong, according to Mayor John Mitchell. He said the rebuilt pier would also ensure Geelong’s Victoria Week yachting event could make its international profile “even bigger”. City Hall has committed $5 million to building the pier but needs $15 million from other levels of government and a further $2.5 million from Royal Geelong Yacht Club. Cr Mitchell said council had been in talks to attract more cruise ships to
dock in Corio Bay. Each cruise visit would bring $1 million in economic benefits to the city, he said. The number of cruise ship passengers visiting Victoria was set to increase from 83,000 in 2010 to more than 216,000 by 2020. “Cruise ship companies have expressed interest in coming to Geelong and in fact we’re due to host the Silver Shadow and Silver Spirit this year but our capacity to host ships is limited through the lack of suitable public infrastructure,” Cr Mitchell said. “We’re calling on State Government to support Geelong’s Yarra Street Pier
project in recognition of the significant economic benefit it would deliver to Victoria.” The project would replace an original Yarra St Pier which burnt down in 1988. Council’s plans would build a pier to accommodate cruise ships as well as provide moorings for 78 smaller recreational and charter boats on floating pontoons. Cr Mitchell said the new pier would be a boon for Victoria Week, one of the world’s oldest yachting events with a history dating back to 1844. “The Audi Victoria Week regatta is an enormously popular and successful event with a long and celebrated histo-
ry but it could be even bigger if our plans to rebuild the Yarra Street Pier are realised. “One of the most important upgrades for Audi Victoria Week would be the ability to provide berths for maxi yachts in sheltered water, which would add considerably to the event’s international appeal.” The Independent reported in September that Silversea line vessel Silver Shadow, with a capacity of 382 guests, was scheduled to berth at Cunningham Pier on February 13. The 540-passenger Silver Spirit was scheduled to dock at Cunningham Pier on 26 February before departing four hours later.
in brief Swimmer drowns A 29-YEAR-OLD Glenroy man has died after a “drowning incident” at Geelong’s Eastern Beach Pool, according to Victoria Police. A spokesperson said police were preparing a report for the coroner after witnesses dragged the man from the deep area of the pool on Saturday afternoon.
Selwood rises GEELONG Football Club has promoted young star Joel Selwood to vice-captain for 2011 and reappointed captain Cameron Ling. A club statement said the rest of the leadership group remained unchanged apart from the departure of Gary Ablett to Gold Coast, with Jimmy Bartel, Joel Corey, James Kelly, Corey Enright and Harry Taylor retaining their positions.
Booze stolen POLICE want to interview an unidentified man, pictured, over the alleged theft of alcohol from a Liquorland store on Queenscliff Road, Newcomb, about 6.30pm on August 2. A Victoria Police spokesperson, who said two bottles were stolen before the man left in a silver Ford Falcon, asked anyone with information to phone Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or to visit crimestoppers.com.au.
Sports plan PLANS for a new sports precinct to service Drysdale and Clifton Springs are set to go on public display, Geelong’s council has announced. A council statement said the proposed precinct on 44 hectares south-east of the intersection of Portarlington and Grubb roads would eventually become a “sub-regional” facility to service the wider Bellarine Peninsula.
Charities benefit CHARITIES will be the beneficiaries of a new sports event set to attract thousands of competitors, their families and officials to Geelong next year, according to organisers. USM Events’ Angela Hamilton said the inaugural Geelong Multi Sports Festival had arranged a fundraising “affiliation” with MS Australia and the city’s branch of United Way, which raises money for 72 human health and welfare agencies in the region.

Australia Day crowd ‘saves’ historic regatta on bay BY ANDREW MATHIESON A BUMPER Australia Day crowd attracted to the sights of Geelong’s waterfront saved a historic sailing regatta from a shortfall in spectator numbers, according to Audi Victoria Week officials. They conceded the absence of Geelong’s name from the title of the 157-year-old regatta had cost the event support among residents. Event commercial manager Jav Greaves said about 60,000 visitors on
Wednesday ensured an overall turnout of more than 100,000 for the event’s five days in Geelong. The regatta included two days of lead-up events at Docklands to “draw people to the state” under a Tourism Victoria strategy. “There was definitely some resistance from Geelong people,” Mr Greaves said. “But they have to realise the event now is global and certainly national from a yachting perspective.
“I think that most people who understand tourism realise we need to market the state so Geelong can benefit from that marketing.” Mr Greaves said the name change ensured the regatta now secured “a lot of serious entries”. Until 2009 the event was known as Skandia Geelong Week. Mr Greaves said stretching this year’s regatta from four days to five to finish on Australia Day also hurt crowd numbers.
Attendance on Monday and Tuesday was “marginal”, he said. “That was difficult weekend with a lot of people going back to work on Monday and Tuesday rather than taking a long weekend but we’re seeing some really amazing crowds (on Wednesday),” Mr Greaves said “People know this regatta really well and it forms a part of Australia Day calendar. “It doesn’t take much to promote that on Australia Day.”
GEELONG Gallery attracted almost 52,000 visitors in 2010 at a cost to ratepayers of $818,000 in council funding, according to the gallery’s annual report. The report also revealed the gallery exceeded its visitor rate by almost four per cent and hosted 27 exhibitions compared to a 2010 target of 20.
Veterans boost A FUNDING windfall of more than $6000 will benefit RSL sub-branches at Ocean Grove and Queenscliff/Point Lonsdale, according to veterans affairs shadow minister Michael Ronaldson. The Senator for Victoria said the cash would help pay for commemorative cabinets at Ocean Grove and to replace a memorial cross at the front of the Queenscliff/Point Lonsdale sub-branch.
Deaf visitors GEELONG’S council expects over 2000 visitors to attend an Australian Deaf Games in the city early next year, according to councillor Kylie Fisher. She said the games was “primarily a sport event” but would also provide a social and cultural festival for visitors and residents from January 14 to 21.

Easier to buy ‘in New York’ BY KIM WATERS HOMES in London and New York are more affordable than in Geelong, according to a new international housing affordability survey. The Demographia International survey ranked Geelong among the 15 least affordable of 325 population centres around the world. Geelong earned its ranking for a median house price of $382,000 compared to an average annual income of $51,000. Hong Kong ranked least affordable with a median price of $2.6 million and average income at $225,400. The USA’s Saginaw was most affordable with a median property price of $61,400 and incomes averaging $39,500. Seven Australian centres including Sydney, Melbourne, Wollongong and the Gold Coast ranked in the 15 least affordable. “The concentration of severe un-affordability was particularly stark in Australia, where approxi-
mately 85 per cent of the metropolitan markets were severely unaffordable,” the survey said. “Housing remains the most unaffordable in Australia except for the single market in Hong Kong included in this survey. “Australia is characterised by more-restrictive land-use policies.” Housing Industry Association economist Matthew King blamed Geelong’s affordability ranking on “supply obstacles”. Land and housing supply in the city had failed to keep pace with fast population growth, he said. “Unfortunately, what we’ve seen is this supply of land coming to market not quite keeping pace with the underlying requirement for housing. We’ve also seen an escalation of infrastructure charges and inadequate infrastructure taxation.” Mr King said “streamlining planning schemes” would prevent state and local government “blockages” in land release. “We need to ensure a steady
supply of land coming to the market. “We aren’t going to be able to build the houses necessary if there aren’t large quantities of land zoned for residential development. “Infrastructure taxation should also be kept in check because stamp duty can currently be levied three times on a house-and-landpackage construction process.” Mr King predicted that declining residential construction activity this year would put further pressure on housing affordability in Geelong. “We need to ensure in the shortterm that we exercise a large degree of caution with interest rate increases and I’d recommend the reserve bank exercise significant caution in its monetary policy this year. “Australia has had a longstanding affordability problem and how we compare with other countries doesn’t measure too well.”

Course plans sent to VCAT BY KIM WATERS PLANS to redevelop the former Geelong Golf Club have bypassed council and gone to the state planning tribunal, a councillor has revealed. Stretch Kontelj said site owner Links Living had lodged an appeal with Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal even though the company was “still in
negotiations” with council. “Even as we stand here the developer has lodged an appeal at VCAT,” he told Tuesday night’s council meeting. Cr Kontelj said council now had to make the most of the “controversial” 10-year golf course redevelopment saga and “the situation we’ve got”. “A consensus outcome is the
best outcome. A goodwill environment is still there.” Links Living controversially bought the 45-hectare course around eight years ago after the golf club struck financial problems. The company won council support in 2006 for redevelopment with nine holes, 200 building blocks and 120 retirement units but later dumped the plan as unvi-
able and locked out club members. Links Living produced other redevelopment options and tried to sell the course with the company’s other golf estates before taking them back off the market in 2008. Cr Kontelj was pleased council had not “buckled” to the previous four “ridiculous proposals”, which had included combinations of golf, residential, retail and ten-
nis developments. The latest plans are similar to the 2006 proposal, with a ninehole golf course and 320 residential allotments. “The community is sick of this eyesore,” Cr Eddy Kontelj said. “We continue to listen to the cries, anger and frustration of the community.” Councillors gave “in principle”
support to Links Living’s fifth plan subject to a series of alterations and conditions including a new Section 173 Agreement to ensure the proposed development would proceed within an agreed time. Links Living spokesperson Ron Smith told the Independent earlier this month that the company was “waiting for council approval” of the latest plan.

Humble: Les Borrack with his Reg Hickey Memorial Award. Picture: Tommy Ritchie
59273
BY ERIN PEARSON CATS legend Reg Hickey had a “huge impact” on the life of devoted clubman Les Borrack. Now 78 and still living in Geelong near Kardinia Park, the former midfielder remembered playing under Hickey as coach and even dining with him and his wife at Hickey’s home. Their decades-long association continued last week when Les won a Ron Hickey Memorial Award for 59 years of involvement with Geelong Football Club. Les, who played for Geelong from 1953 to 1960, was “deeply honoured” to win the medal named after his friend and mentor.
“He was a man with strength of character written all over his face,” Les remembered. A Cats life member who also served on the club’s board, he considered himself a “giver” to football. “A lot of people in this game always think about what they can get out if it but I’ve come from humble beginnings. I’m not a self-promoter, so I’ve made giving my life. “It’s the love of football and I’ve been terribly lucky.” Les arrived in Geelong from Ballarat in 1953, meeting his eventual wife just hours later in “a sign of good luck”. He played 95 day and nine night games for the Cats, kicking
15 goals and earning 18 Brownlow votes. He later played for Rokewood until a broken leg and a dislocated ankle in the mid-1960s ended his playing days. “It took me six months to get back on my feet but when you’re a fair dinkum sportsman you can’t give up. It would be like cutting your hands off, so I began umpiring.” Les conceded his body had taken a beating over the years. He labelled himself the “president of total hip replacement recipients in Australia”. “I can’t get anyone to take my position,” he laughed. “I’ve had four hip replacements on the right and two on the left.”

13th dune tracks win backing BY KIM WATERS PLANS to carve walking and cycling tracks through dunes at 13th Beach have won the blessing of Geelong’s peak community environment body. Geelong Environment Council’s Joan Lindros labelled the plans “a big improvement” on a previous proposal to run the trails on the ocean side of 13th Beach Road. “It will require a big commitment in both money and effort to make sure the recommendations for revegetation occur but it’s a big improvement,” Ms Lindros said. “The environmental integrity of the area will depend very
much on the re-establishing of plants that will have to be relocated. Barwon Coast has committed to restoring and weeding the area so as long as that happens it should be fine.” Ms Lindros said the environment council would “supervise” revegetation works. “It would be tragic if revegetation and maintenance of the area wasn’t properly supervised and monitored.” 13th Beach Surf Life Saving Club’s Peter Sutas said Barwon Coast Committee of Management’s proposal was a “win-win” situation for the environment and beach-users. “This has been on the books
for a number of years and as a club our members have given in-principle support because of the safety factor of people not having to walk on the roads to get to the beach or the club,” Mr Sutas said. “Safety is a major concern for us, as is the environment. If people are walking on dedicated trails it means they won’t be trampling the surrounding roadside vegetation like at the moment.” Mr Sutas said the area was unsafe for walkers and cyclists. “To put it bluntly, it’s not a safe road at the best of times, so properly designed tracks benefit everyone,” he said.

local artists like Charles Moodie who have received awards for exhibitions in Australia and France. “The big names we have at this exhibition, like Moodie and Christopher Lamb, will draw big crowds.” Ms Agg hoped the exhibition would “put Osborne House back on the map”. City of Greater Geelong took over the 153-yearold heritage building in 1995, with renovations work now underway. The house has previously served as a naval college and officers for the former Shire of Corio. “It’s a lovely old place and this is the first art show they’ve had there, so hopefully it will attract more people to Osborne House,” she said.

Mr Moodie’s contributions will be available for sale alongside about 120 other artworks at Geelong Art Society’s exhibition at Rippleside’s Osborne House, beginning Saturday.

BY KIM WATERS CLIFTON Springs’ residents have triumphed over a council scheme to charge home owners thousands of dollars upfront for drainage works, according to Geelong councillors. They voted this week to instead offer a “deferred payment option” for residents to pay the levy only after selling or further developing their properties. Mayor John Mitchell said the proposed main drain in Central Road would also service homes in Jetty Road, Ada Street and Thomas Street. The Independent revealed in April that Melbourne-based company Pinnacle Living’s plans for a
retirement home on eight hectares fronting Central Road required construction of a new drain Residents faced levies of up to $250,000 to cover the cost. Cr Mitchell said a panel that considered residents’ objections had recommended that council proceed with the scheme on the deferred payment basis. “Council has negotiated an agreement with the developer of the retirement village land under which the developer will provide and fund the main drain up front. As part of the agreement council is to initiate a special charge scheme for cost recovery from the surrounding benefiting landowners.” Cr Mitchell said the new pay-
ment option was an “excellent result for the residents as well as for the developers”. But Drysdale Clifton Springs Community Association’s Patrick Hughes slammed the decision, saying residents who declined to pay up-front faced increases in their levies of up to five per cent a year. “For example, if a household defers a special charge of $10,000 for five years it owes $12,762 and if it defers for 10 years it owes $16,288,” Mr Hughes said. “The deferral option is a major change in the council’s special charge policy and...council introduced it after it exhibited the original proposal for public scrutiny and comment.”

BY ANDREW MATHIESON NEW Cats president Colin Carter has labelled developing a full-time training facility at Armstrong Creek “one of the next big challenges” under his leadership. Geelong Football Club has explored options for a base outside Skilled Stadium at Geelong new urban growth area, which authorities expect will be home to 60,000 residents within the next decade. “It’s still a live idea with us but nothing has been formally agreed or a deal stitched up yet,” he said. “But getting that decision right, both in itself and making sure the financial consequences for the club are sustainable, is one of the next big challenges.” Members last week endorsed Mr Carter to take over the reigns from Frank Costa after the election of the new board. Mr Costa told the Independent the board planned to boost capacity at Skilled Stadium past 40,000. Mr Costa planned to use his new role as club patron to lobby governments for addi-
tional funding of up to $80 million to upgrade the ground. Mr Carter said Geelong’s unique position of running its own AFL home ground weighed the club down. “The paradox is that the better the ground becomes the more the landlord (Geelong’s council) needs to use it for other purposes. “That leaves us with a problem getting access to it all the time. If you’re running a 21st Century professional football team you can’t do it with access to training facilities on a parttime basis.” Mr Carter said the Cats intended to overcome AFL draft and recruiting rules preventing extended periods of on-field success. “The reality is the competition is designed to take successful teams back to the field and our biggest challenge is to prove we can be the first team to beat that system,” Mr Carter said. “We’ve done extraordinary well without having ever bottomed out in the draft before. If we can prove we can continue to be successful having won a couple of flags then we have really re-written the rules.”

Taking care of Fagg business A FIRE at the turn of the last century did more than burn the records of a part of Geelong’s history – it could have easily killed a family legacy of more than 157 years. Brothers Barry and Keith Fagg now safely sit back in their boardroom, dwelling over century-old framed pictures of the Fagg hardware empire, born a stone’s throw away from the Barwon River. “This is where Geelong was first settled – the first house was here,” a reflective Barry says, pointing toward the river. “Then the settlement started on the bay and over the next 50 years they finally came together.” The historical site on the corner of Moorabool Street and Barwon Terrace is a far cry from the original building that was home to a timber merchant, a carpenter, a wheelwright and an ironmonger. An upcoming major expansion promises to deliver modern Fagg’s Mitre 10 its greatest onestop hardware complex since English immigrants Samuel and William Fagg first opened their doors in 1854. But when the blaze destroyed, ironically, the timber-based building in January, 1901, the first Fagg brothers were left devastated. The business was largely uninsured and rather than pack it all in they chose to start again from scratch. Barry now sifts through pages of historical records but with a heavy heart comes up empty on more than 30 lost years. “We really don’t know how they did it or what the process was at the time because we lost all that information,” Keith adds.
Local Legends ANDREW MATHIESON “The fact they rebuilt that building and got it going again is quite extraordinary. “Both Samuel and William weren’t young men, either.” Samuel, the great-grandfather of Barry and Keith, was 73 and William, 70 at the time. But William died the next year in 1902 to see his dream unfulfilled and his brother seven years later. Now Barry, 59, and Keith, 55, with a sense of responsibility carry the burden of custodians of a history that is more than just a family tree. Grandfather Charlie and their dad, Bert, still alive at 93, ran Fagg’s for nearly all of the 20th Century. Bert was just 16 when he picked up his first tool and was 82 when he called it quits. “Most businesses that age could be five or six generations, not just four,” Barry mentions. Keith’s 27-year-old son, Mark, is now the fifth generation working in the business. Fagg brothers is the eighth oldest family business in Australia, only 17 years younger than a transport and wine business that holds the coveted title. Barry boastfully finds a loophole that could elevate the family’s standing higher. “It is the same family, yes,
although the family business association regards son-in-laws and whatever as being in the same family,” he points out, “but Keith and I have a direct blood relationship back to Samuel Fagg.” Barry counts at least 25 Fagg family members as having worked more than a few hundred years combined in their South Geelong, Geelong West, North Geelong and Waurn Ponds stores. “Certainly, in the early 1900s and during the wars and depressions there weren’t too many other options,” Keith says. “Our father would have loved to have become an engineer but he ended up being a joiner because that was the only option when he was a teenager.” When Barry and Keith think of Fagg’s through their years, their minds cast back to the timber mill down the road. The smell of the sawdust inside the boiler and dry timber steaming out of the kilns remains fresh among their senses. The belt and pulley-driven machinery provided a child’s playground, Barry recalls. “Those were the days when occupational health and safety wasn’t an issue,” he laughs nostalgically, “you could walk around and the machines spinning.” But that’s where the affinity with timber ends. Neither, they concede, are handymen. “We’re probably not what you call the most practical DIY freaks – we’re acknowledging that and we don’t claim to be,” Barry grins before Keith interrupts: “We have a passion, we just don’t have the skills.”

BOUQUETS to all the crew at Smash Masters Geelong. I went into meltdown after my car was badly damaged in a collision two weeks before Christmas. Rachel loaned me a free car and my car was fixed for Christmas after her panel beaters worked over the weekend. Happy Customer Mia, Torquay
BUCKETS to Sick To Death Of Keith. He has provided much entertainment for Independent readers with his overwhelmingly negative approach to life. Many bouquets to Keith, who I thank for the laughter he has given time and again. Megan, East Geelong
BUCKETS to a manager who assured me rose petals could be supplied for my daughter’s wedding. The business was closed at the arranged time and when someone arrived half an hour later only half the petals amount ordered were available. When I returned for an explanation I was verbally abused. Disappointed, Portarlington
BOUQUETS to Keith. How hypocritical it was for other readers to bucket you for bucketing others. Talk about the pots calling the kettle black. You have all the right in the world to have your say in the local press. Bouquets also to people who join in community debate. Having My Say, Geelong West

BUCKETS to Motorist for bucketing cyclists who fail to ride inside bike lanes. Buckets should instead be given to councils for making most bike lanes too narrow and also to motorists who open their doors without checking for cyclists. Try riding a bike in this region to understand. Injured Cyclist, Newtown
BUCKETS to the Independent for publishing a smutty venue’s smutty advertisement on page two of the January 21 edition. Must we all have to look at such perversion? What about the young people who read the paper? Should they be subjected to such filth? Jane, Grovedale
BUCKETS to Motorist (Buckets and Bouquets, January 21). Law states that cyclists can ride two abreast because it increases their visibility on the road. Bike lanes are marked but car drives seem fond of driving in them, unfortunately. Can you spare 20 seconds during you trip to save a life? Simon, Portarlington
BUCKETS to a woman who was driving while using her mobile phone on January 17. She talked on it the whole way from Geelong to Werribee. Thankfully no children were in the car. When will dumb people learn? Disgusted, Corio
BUCKETS to the thieves who stole our solar garden lights and a massive concrete angel that was a Mother’s Day present from my daughters and which would have taken two people to move. They have made us question whether we should ever put up Christmas lights again. Angry And Heartbroken, Norlane
The best places to exercise and play!
BOUQUETS to Deb and Mel at Herne Hill Post Office for their patience and hard work with all my weird and crazy postings during the past month. They are always courteous, helpful and friendly. Michael, Newtown
BOUQUETS to an honest and kind person who handed in my wallet at Belmont’s Coffee Kitchen last week. Bouquets also to the staff member who phoned me to say he had my wallet. You have both restored my faith in humanity. Sarah, Belmont
BUCKETS to motorised bicycle riders who persist in riding in traffic lanes and not bike lanes. If you think you have the ride to ride in traffic lanes then maybe State Government should consider registration for your vehicles and licensing the rider. Motorists pay to be on the road without fools. Vicki, Leopold

letters Centre supported REGARDING a story headlined ‘Anger’ at super plan’ in last week’s Independent, I felt that nearby businesses did not want to face competition, so they were against the proposal of the new shopping centre. I am building a house in the Province Estate area and think the centre would save nearby residents time and petrol while offering the bonus of exercise from simply walking to buy whatever is required. I fully support this project in Highton. I know lots of people who support it as well. Jane Cooper Highton
Berth rights BRAVO to Joan Kenwood’s defence of Queenscliff’s small but embattled ‘couta boat fleet and the costing and availability of 28 proposed berths being provided by Parks Victoria adjoining Queenscliff Harbour (Independent, January 14). Let us take it one step further on behalf of the owners seeking refuge from the proposed fee structure in the existing harbour. Why not means test access to the proposed berths so applicants who are truly battling on, say, the full pension or below minimum wage and without the necessary assets, would obtain discounts. This would leave in the existing harbour only those who can afford it, such as multiple property owners, self-funded superannuants, dual-income couples and the like, which would eliminate the vast
and are faithful. Think of a poor dog dumped in a pound, in a pen day and night, upset and confused. The poor thing would be thinking ‘What have I done to deserve this? Will you come back?’ Dogs and all other pets depend on us to look after them because they can’t look after themselves, so if you can’t afford a dog or a cat then don’t get one. Debbie Hollis Winchelsea
Council candidate meeting expectations ANGELO Kakouros should be congratulated for organising a public meeting to discuss the proposed Barrabool Hills Shopping Centre (Independent, January 21). Angelo’s level of community awareness is outstanding. I’ll be delighted to support his election as our next Deakin ward councillor. Graeme McClure Highton
Support: Angelo Kakouros.
THE PUBLIC forum held by Deakin ward candidate Angelo Kakouros on the proposed Barrabool Hill Shopping Centre certainly had the effect
he intended. Designed to inform and help the Highton and Wandana Heights community make good lifestyle choices, it was an out-
majority from the pool of applicants. This way only those who actually need, not want, resolution will be the sole beneficiaries and the taxpayer-funded expense could be better spent on demolishing the eyesore derelict brick building and redundant Fisherman’s Wharf, which Parks Victoria and Queenscliff’s council have allowed to collapse into a state of disrepair. Greg Jones Point Lonsdale
standing success. Highton Tennis Club was packed and those attending had plenty of time to ask questions. It is wonderful to see Mr Kakouros bring our community together to discuss what is proposed to happen on our doorstep. Evenings such as the public forum give us the opportunity of raising awareness of the importance of having constructive and ongoing dialogue about what happens in the future. Elizabeth Cross Wandana Heights
Paper disappoints
Treated like a dog PEOPLE seem to be so careless about the welfare of our four-legged friends (Independent, January 14). A dog is for life. People seem to afford smoking and drinking as well as spending money at sales yet find it so hard to care for their four-legged friends. How can people throw out their pets like unwanted toys? Dogs have feelings, they love their owners

Seymour of world Arms Around Me and Holy Grail during an era of “big changes”. “I was sitting around with some old school friends the other day and talking about how people’s jobs change four or five times in a lifetime,” he said. “My parents had the same jobs all their lives, their generation back then did that, but when I made the decision to become a singer I never looked far ahead. “When I finished school had no idea what I wanted to do, so I became a teacher, then something clicked. That was the beauty of being young.” Seymour was “excited” about his future, with a new record due for release in May and an Irish collaboration toward the end of this year. “Hunters and Collectors was a rolling show with just two or three shows a year and in the meantime I just sat around,” he said. “Now I go out and look for work. It’s much more hands-on.” Seymour said his new “tight, little four-piece band” was “old school”, preferring to keep things “simple”. Seymour said Geelong fans could expect an eclectic mix of Hunters and Collectors classics and new songs from his solo career. Seymour will perform at Waterfront Cafe on February 13.

BY ERIN PEARSON LEGENDARY Australian band Hunters and Collectors became a “bubble” for front man Mark Seymour. Now out on the road as a solo artist, Seymour told the Independent he still relished the opportunity to immerse himself in the real world after almost two decades fronting Hunters and Collectors. The singer-songwriter formed the chart-topping band in 1980 with a bunch of university friends before they split in 1998. “I think Hunters and Collectors ended up in a bubble. We didn’t realise there was a world out beyond the boundary of what the band was,” he said. “My view is whatever you decide to do have to be excited about it, you only live once.” Seymour said he only occasionally “reflected” on his success with Hunters and Collectors, preferring to concentrate on his future in music. Seymour grew up in country Victoria with deeply religious Catholic parents. After graduating from Melbourne University in 1978 he worked as a schoolteacher before feeling the bite of the music bug, and formed Hunters and Collectors. He went on to write hits for the band such as Throw You

oft cafes now has two great licensed locations for functions. Numbers up to 90 can be well catered for, with a further opportunity to use external locations for even larger groups. Anyone seeking affordable options for events should consider contacting Soft’s management team. Enquiries and venue images are available at www.softcafe.com.au. “Each event is different, so individual quotes are necessary to meet the requests of that host,” says Soft general manager Craig Morrissy. Events with food and beverage are essential in most occasions to celebrate Soft Newtown achievements or an anniversary of a special time. Soft can offer its facilities at reasonable prices because its cafes generally don’t open in the evening, so availability is usually no problem. “Our offers of food is substantial, wholesome and priced to meet most budgets,” Craig says. “We don’t kid ourselves by aiming at the top end of the market. We’re in the middle market, providing relaxed surroundings, quality finger food and sincere customer service.” With a strong focus on the competitive takeaway coffee market, Soft offers three sizes in “good strengths”. Soft’s offers a freshly ground blend from Soft Herne Hill Redstar plus organic beans and decaf coffee. Three styles of chai latte are also available, all made with passion and pride. “Ring your order in to have your coffee sitting on the bench as you walk in the door,” Craig says. Soft’s three cafes are air-conditioned, while alfresco areas are also available for guests to enjoy the warmth of summer. Wheelchair and pram friendly, the cafes also have room for a handful of children’s toys. Anyone wanting to provide feedback on recent dining experiences at Soft Cafes or to make enquiries about catering or employment opportunities can email Soft Belmont info@softcafe.com.au.

Taxing credulity JULIA Gillard’s plea to corporate Australia regarding assistance with flood damage is an abrogation of her government’s obligations to the voting public, which is nothing new. Taxes are collected by a government that seems to act like they are its own private property rather than the national piggy bank. The flood disaster is exactly what tax reserves are
meant for and surpluses are irrelevant when overseas aid amounts to billions of dollars. Federal Government is obliged to use taxpayers’ financial resources as best fits without panhandling for donations from the public or anyone else, including corporate Australia. Disaster relief is a prime contender. Government is busily creating a scenario of helplessness, which does not equate logically with the tax department’s rapacious quest, always, for more tax revenue. The taxpaying public is being seduced and must not accept Prime Minister Gillard’s insipid cop-out. The Government is nowhere near helpless and we should not accept that it is. If it will not spend our taxes on this most important matter then perhaps it should stop collecting them and just let us look after ourselves. We might do a better job. Gary Oraniuk Geelong
Trading places
industry is a great option for VCE graduates considering their futures. The best thing about studying a trade is that not only will you earn while you learn but you don’t have to pay back a HECS debt. After completing a four-year apprenticeship you can expect to earn $50,000 to $60,000 a year. Traditional trades identified as in short supply by National Skills Needs List include carpentry, joinery, plumbing, gas fitting, bricklaying, roofing, and painting. According to the list, average weekly earnings in the industry are $1215 Australia-wide and over 86 per cent of workers in Victoria are employed on a full-time basis. High school graduates or parents interested in more information about the sector can contact Master Builders Association of Victoria’s careers team on 9411 4555 or visit www.mbav.com.au Brian Welch Master Builders Association of Victoria executive director

THE BALLIEU Government has reinstated a full duck-hunting season in Victoria this year (Independent, January 21) despite the fact our native waterbirds are only just starting to recover from a devastating 13-year drought. More-progressive governments in Western Australia, Queensland and New South Wales have banned recreational shooting of waterbirds completely and with good reason. Hunting flocks of wild waterbirds with shotguns is undeniably cruel. Studies show that for every duck retrieved a wounded bird flies away, often suffering a slow, lingering death. Studies of thousands of wild waterfowl have found that one in five birds of some target species has shot lodged in its body. Rare and endangered species are also killed with shocking regularity by irresponsible hunters, which will continue this year due to vastly inadequate policing of Victoria’s wetlands during the threemonth hunting season. Despite these facts, however, and despite polls consistently showing the vast majority of Victorians
oppose duck hunting, our new State Government has continued a tradition of pandering to vocal, selfinterested minority groups at the expense of our native wildlife. It seems the duck hunting season is routinely rubber-stamped in Victoria regardless of bird numbers, environmental conditions or the basic immorality of people slaughtering our precious native wildlife for so-called sport. I want to know why. That some people still consider it entertainment to kill animals in the 21st Century is extremely disturbing. That our government continues to sanction them is even more so.

City accepting old technology harmful to the environment. These materials pose no threat while they are contained within equipment but if disposed of in landfill could eventually leach into nearby waterways and the environment. The good news is that recycling of computer equipment is available in the Geelong area. Residents can take computer equipment to either the Drysdale or Geelong Resource Recovery centre. The cost of recycling and safe disposal of computer components is available at no cost to residents through Byteback, a government and industry-funded program. With the advent of digital television, a national TV recycling program is in the pipeline. Residents will be notified when it
is available in Geelong. In the meantime, residents can keep their old televisions until the program is available or take to them to either the Drysdale or Geelong resource recovery centre. Depositing a television at either centre costs $12.50. City of Greater Geelong is investigating the type of household items that residents need to dispose of or recycle. A survey will be delivered to letterboxes in mid February, along with new collection calendars. Residents who complete the survey will provide the City with information allowing it to improve its response to their needs. The survey will be available online at www.geelong australia.com.au/council/yoursay/ from February 14.

AUSTRALIANS are some of the biggest users of new technology in the world, buying more than 2.4 million personal computers each year and over one million televisions, according to Australian Bureau of Statistics. However, their desire for latest technology is making e-waste the fastest growing waste stream in the world. Household computers and other items of e-waste contain metals such as gold, copper and silver and plastics. These materials can be re-used but others, such as mercury and lead, can be harmful when not recycled properly. Monitors and screens have a high lead content.

Shoe-Horn set for GPAC stage eelong Repertory has chosen a prize-winning drama, The Shoe-Horn Sonata, to open its 2011 season. Based on real events, the play examines the lives of two women captured by the Japanese in World War Two. Playwright John Misto donated his prize money to the Australian Nurses’ National Memorial Fund. “I don’t have the power to build a memorial, so I wrote a play instead,” he says. The play is about memories masquerading as nostalgia and “memories that ensure you never really come back home”. Characters Bridie and Sheila share

memories of life as prisoners of war, although their recollections of the experience differ. The memories haunt and seduce them. The women’s story was forged in fires of endurance and survival but will their love be strong enough to endure the truth? Or should they let the past bury itself? The play celebrates the women who went to war and survived. It is a play of joy and triumph. The Shoe-Horn Sonata runs from February 4 to 19 at Woodbin Theatre, Coronation Street, Geelong. Tickets are available at Geelong Performing Arts Centre, phone 5225 1200.

Debbie passing on stage passion ebbie Fraser has for 22 years been passing on her passion for the stage to the many young people who have attend Musicbox Theatre Company. Some have even continued on to professional careers. Debbie believes theatre is about being in the moment, so Musicbox classes teach the Spolin method, which includes improvisation, mime and script. As well as learning acting techniques that can be applied to all areas of performance, Debbie’s classes also encourage self-confidence and support working together as a small ensemble. Each class is structured to suit the age range involved, with all working toward a performance. Most classes have 16 to 20 members, with students at ages beginning from six and extending right through to adults. Theatre games are a major part of the syllabus and

Kicking up a rukus BY ERIC BLAIR f car buyers based their decisions solely on practicality and convenience the Toyota Rukus would be just about the biggest-selling car in the world. Tall and boxy, it’s easy to get into and out of; there’s plenty of interior space and the 2.4-litre petrol engine gives it plenty of power. Based on the huge-selling Corolla but with a very different body style, Rukus has the square styling that’s been all the rage on the streets of Tokyo for the last few years. A shape that not only looks trendy in its own right, but also acts as a metallic canvas on which automotive artists can make their own personal statements. Though the exterior is all square, boxy and edgy, Toyota’s stylists have taken the opposite route in the interior, going for lots of round areas, knobs, vents, audio controls and so on. The instruments consist of circular dials (though the speedo has a digital readout) and are set in the centre of the dashboard, not in front of the driver. Toyota is calling the model grades of the Rukus Build 1, Build 2 and Build 3.
smartly as well as to overtake smartly. Hill climbing ability is good and we seldom found our road test car needing much in the way of lower gears to keep moving on average grades. Fuel consumption is pretty good for a car of this size, usually sitting in the nine to ten litres per hundred kilometres range around town and numbers in the sevens are possible with a bit of care on motorways and level country running. Ride comfort takes precedence over handling competence in the new Toyota Rukus. This provides a smooth, quiet ride that doesn’t deteriorate much on even rough Aussie bush roads. Tyre noise on coarse-chip surfaces is better than in many other cars of this size. Steering is on the light side and if you corner at much more than average speeds the higher centre of gravity becomes obvious. But that’s not something that’s likely to upset many buyers of a car like the Toyota Rukus. Rukus is something right out of the ordinary and will do Toyota’s reputation nothing but good as it helps the Japanese giant to lift away from its image of building nothing but sensible cars.

aniel Hose has made a few changes since taking over Geelongâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Rally Motors about five years ago. First, he added Rally Offroad to offer four-wheeldrive owners a bigger choice of accessories and knowledge. Now he has joined forces with OzTrail, one of Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s favorite suppliers of camping products. The result is that customers now get the convenience of specialist knowledge, great service and a huge range under one roof. Whether customers like to hit the beach or the bush, holiday around the corner or simply around the country, the whole team at Rally Motors and Rally Offroad is dedicated to helping them drive safely and making sure their holiday is memorable for all the right reasons. Everything is truly about the customer at Rally and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s easy to see how. Rallyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s off-road club is free to join and gives members a five per cent discount. Also, on all purchases over $500 customers are welcome to use Certegy EziPay, with easy fortnightly repayments and no interest ever. Certegy EziPay means less hassles, more convenience. As a special offer, Independent readers who mention this ad will receive free bonus chairs or a sleeping bag when they purchase certain camping packages on sale during February. Anyone planning an Easter getaway should visit Rally Motors at 36 Mercer Street to see the difference.

sport Geelong’s Ringwood challenge GEELONG Cricket Club got back on the winners list last week with a relatively easy win against Essendon. The most-pleasing aspect of the Cats’ victory was the spread of performances across the board rather than the side relying on an individual standout. Essendon batted first but could only manage 173 thanks mainly to veteran Cat Trent Walerys taking three wickets and the two each to Marc Carson and Jeremy Hart. In reply Geelong cruised to a sixwicket win, Tom Elliott leading the way at the top of the order with an undefeated 74. Liam Buchanan was also handy with a tidy 40, while Hayden Butterworth finished on 30 not out. The fourth placed Cats travel tomorrow to take on Ringwood, which sits seventh on the ladder. The match is hugely important for both sides. With just four rounds remaining, neither would want to drop a game now. In Geelong Cricket Association, Geelong West is staring down the barrel of missing this year’s division one finals. Falling short would be a disaster given the side played in the past two grand finals. Geelong West finds itself in seventh spot, half a game out of the top six although a healthy percentage means it can get back in with a couple of wins. But to do that it will first have to overcome Newtown and Chilwell and, while the Two Blues haven’t been world beaters so far this season, they are on the right side of an extended slump for the club and appear to be making steps in the right direction. For the Rams, Glen Talarico and Mike Chapple have both made centuries this campaign and hold the key with the bat. For Newtown, Ben Neville and Sam Arthurton both have surpassed the 200-run mark with a healthy average each. Geelong West should triumph but
Local Cricket JIM TIMBERLAKE won’t want to take its visitors lightly. Other selections: LEOPOLD v Manifold Heights, EAST BELMONT v South Barwon, LARA v North Geelong, ST JOSEPHS v Bell Post Hill, Thomson v GROVEDALE. With just three rounds remaining this season, Alexander Thomson is on the cusp of missing out on finals action in division two. The team sits in eighth place on the table and has the unenviable task of taking on second placed Waurn Ponds. After a bright start to the season under Sean Arnott, the Vikings haven’t really hit their straps and, although Lucas Benci has done his bit, too much has been left to too few. Benci will need support if his team is to cause an upset in this match. Other selections: GEELONG CITY v Murgheboluc, Highton v ST ALBANS BREAKWATER, GUILD ST MARYS v Marshall, ST PETERS v Newcomb & District, TORQUAY v North Shore. With just two wins to its name, one of the early season division three favourites, Meredith, is in serious danger of failing to contest finals this year. Meredith is in eighth position and hosts ninth placed Bannockburn tomorrow in a match that will surely spell curtains for the loser. Ty Watts will have his charges fired up as they look to repay the faith put in them by the Meredith committee during the last off-season. Selections: Inverleigh v CORIO, MEREDITH v Bannockburn, Winchelsea v MODEWARRE, TEESDALE v Bell Park, LITTLE RIVER v Lethbridge, Corio Bay bye.

AROUND 650 swimmers will compete at the Victorian country championships in Geelong this weekend, according to organisers. Geelong District Swimming Association’s Kevin Nolan said spec-
Chewing gummy: A Queenscliff Fishing Charters and Scenic Tours client with a gummy shark.
Pinkies storm bays as kings show offshore CORIO and Port Phillip bays continued producing the mostconsistent captures over the past week, with the same results likely into the weekend. Corio Bay has had a huge influx of small snapper. Many are undersized although a patient David Dean caught snapper to 48cm and whiting to 35cm with a liberal berley trail on the Stingaree spoilgrounds. Norm and Harry Jennings had similar results close to the channel off Point Henry where garfish were also present. The boys caught fish from just on daylight, with the action slowing as the wind picked increased. Peter Welsh cast soft plastics near Alcoa Pier to land around a dozen quality salmon, the best pushing 1.5kg. Peter also found pike happy to bite, landing four fish close to 1m. Graham Faull did well on trevalla while anchored close to the old freezer pier ruins, catching a dozen fish to 900g on chicken baits. The outer-harbour produced plenty of snapper to 55cm from the spoilgrounds along with some nice flathead and huge pike, many over 1m. Casting soft plastics has been the best method, with this area to continue fishing well over the weekend during the late morning or early afternoon run offtides. Trolling from Alcoa Pier to Hermsley for pike in under four metres of water could be worthwhile if the weed isn’t too thick. I would use a small, bibbed minnow that dives to around 2m. Experienced trio Mark Sesar, Chris Stamalos and Andrew Phillips used there local knowledge for bag-limit captures of King George whiting in a fourhour session in 5m of water off the Mountain View quarries. Using mussel baits, their fish were up to 40cm. Darren Jones found whiting
On the bite BRIAN LONG in just three metres of water out from Bird Rock where he landed his bag limit in two hours on South Australian pippies. Darren’s best fish was a cracker at 46cm, with the fishing hottest just before and after sunrise. The same area has also been producing good numbers of garfish. St Leonards provided most anglers with reasonable captures of whiting from the inshore grass beds but others who pushed out to the 15m depth returned with some of the best fish, including flathead over 60cm. Drifting with both bait or soft plastics was productive. Swan Bay’s entrance yielded whiting, garfish and leatherjacket but anglers who know how to fish for the flathead started to see some better-quality fish. Sydney’s Tyler Maher, 12, took the best, a 3.85kg specimen that was one of four fish over 2kg he caught with his dad. Queenscliff Fishing Charters and Scenic Tours has been getting clients onto gummy sharks recently, so anyone wanting to catch on should call operator Tim right now. Anglers fishing Queenscliff’s cut on daylight with soft plastics such as Turtleback worms and should find some quality silver trevally at present. Fair numbers of squid have also been in the cut area recently. Small mako shark have been
Whiting biting: Mark Sesar with a pair of 40cm whiting. taken offshore from around the 50m to 60m metre drop, with a few threshers showing up in close off Collendina in 20m. All the offshore talk in the last week was the number of kingfish taken, with most responding to knife jigs and a few taken on squid baits. Size has varied, with the best pushing 9kg. Surf anglers should look to Black Rock where snapper to 50cm were taken in the evenings. Squid is the bait required, with long casts essential to get into the best water depth. McLeods Watering Hole at Drysdale was again ideal for carp, with Jenny Nash landing two fish around 2kg each on corn. Jenny also lost two huge fish that broke her line while during attempted netting.
Wurdee Buloc Reservoir was quieter but rainbow trout to just over 1kg were caught on both mudeye and lure. Browns were harder to come by but a few big redfin pushing 1kg were taken amid all the smaller fish. This weekend’s best bets are Swan Bay’s jetty from midmorning to early afternoon for garfish or fishing for whiting from Bird Rock to the quarries area in around 3m to 5m. Soft plastics fanatics should try the Hermsley spoilgrounds for snapper.
