Models to display ability for fashion in local fundraiser A CONFIDENCE-building program for young women with disabilities will culminate in a fashion parade with a difference. Featuring clients and staff of Encompass Community Services, the fashion parade will raise money to fund the next wave of the program. Target, Big W, Harris Scarfe, Eddy Elias and Strapper are among local retailers providing their latest fashions so the models can strut their stuff. Welfare agency support body United Way Geelong Region provided initial funding for the program, aimed at instilling sufficient confidence for clients to enter the workforce. Encompass chief executive officer Elaine Robb said funding from sources such as United Way and local businesses was crucial to the organisation’s ability to continue providing services for clients with disabilities. “Encompass is committed to encouraging and promoting equality and opportunities for all our clients and assistance like this from sponsors and the public makes a big difference,” she said. K-Rock announcer Kelli Paun will MC the parade at Kardinia Heights Centre from 6.30pm on July 9. Ms Robb asked anyone seeking tickets to phone Encompass on 5222 3377. Fashion statement: Banding together for the fashion fundraiser are, from left, Encompass’s Felicity Kenyon, Kate Baker, Alex Dowler, United Way Geelong Region’s Leigh Johnston, Annabel Fitzgerald and K Rock’s Kelli Paun.

Firm faces finger fine BY KIM WATERS A WORKER who lost three fingers could cost a Geelong company almost $500,000 in fines, a Geelong court has heard. Express Promotions pleaded guilty in Geelong Magistrates Court on Wednesday to three charges under the Occupational Health and Safety Act. The company was the second in Victoria to be charged with reck-

lessly endangering a worker, the court heard. WorkSafe prosecutor Niki Andriopoulos told the court 37year-old James Trate was attempting to fix a printing press in 2008 when he slipped and caught his hand in rollers, severing the three fingers. Ms Andriopoulos said workers had modified the 13-year-old press so it could continue running
with a rear safety guard open. “Cleaning with the guard down slows production,” Ms Andriopoulos told the court. “To aid easy cleaning and quick ink changes someone loosened the screws so the rear guard could be raised, which defeats the purpose of the guard.” Ms Andriopoulos said Express Promotions had failed to show Mr Trate or other workers a safety
manual for operating the press. Management warned staff against disarming the machine’s safety mechanism after discovering an unnamed worker had loosened screws so the machine could operate with the guard open, she said. The machine operated safely for two weeks until another worker again loosened the screws. Ms Andriopoulous urged Magistrate Stephen Myall to con-

sider imposing almost $500,000 in damages. Express Promotions solicitor Luke McWilliams said Mr Trate was “a worker over the age of 30 who knew that what he was doing was unsafe”. Mr McWilliams told the court his client, one of Geelong’s largest printing companies, had no prior convictions and was a “good corporate citizen”.
The company admitted the unsafe machine “should have been remedied earlier”, he said. He believed total fines of $105,000 without conviction was appropriate. “A conviction will have an affect on existing and subsequent tenders,” Mr McWilliams said The hearing was continuing when the Independent went to press.

Crims target square BY ANDREW MATHIESON NORLANE traders are fighting back to save their shopping strip. They hoped a meeting at Labuan Square this week would resolve problems from increasing criminal activities. The latest incident was another cash hold-up at a charity provider’s cafe last Saturday morning. Urban Bean was a part of Norlane Baptist church minister Brent Lyons Lee’s project to revitalise the square’s shaky image. Profits from the business are pumped back into the community to fund free meals for struggling families. Mr Lyons Lee said he would be forced to “review” operation procedures but would remain running “business as usual”. The Independent reported earlier this month that Mr Lyons Lee hoped his charity business could help turn around the fortunes of Labuan Square. “The robbery actually occurred outside operating hours, so no customers were at risk,” he said. Traders joined City of Greater Geelong officials and police to discuss options for re-designing the square to attract businesses back to Norlane. “The good thing about this meeting is that everything’s on the table,” he said. “We’ve got some advice from some other peak trading groups.” Mr Lyons Lee hoped Labuan Square could again rival Corio Shopping Centre. More than 20 retailers made it a bustling hub in the ’60s and ’70s. Now the same shopfronts are draped in roller doors to prevent break-ins and robberies. Mr Lyons Lee said stakeholders had expressed a “real sense of team” at Labuan Square. “I think it’s really exciting about what some of the reports are saying about investing in the regeneration of Corio and Norlane.

United front forms to fight for struggling Moorabool BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN THREE adjoining municipalities have banded together to try to save the Moorabool River. City of Greater Geelong joined Golden Plains and Moorabool shires in the combined effort to bring sustainable water flows back to Victoria’s “most-stressed river”. Councillors from the three municipalities have formed a coalition called Concerned Councils for the Moorabool River (CCMR). The coalition said it would follow up federal and state politicians to ensure they kept commitments to the health of the river. People for a Living Moorabool (PALM) spokesman Cameron Steele welcomed the coalition. “For the first time we have a government group looking at the river in its entirety,” Mr Steele said. Geelong councillor John Doull, who holds council’s environment and climate change portfolio, said the Moorabool was economically important to the region because it provided vital water for farms, vineyards and market gardens. “The Moorabool is also an important source for domestic water supplies and plays a major role in supporting a variety of social and recreational activities in the region.” Cr Doull said a CCMR draft action plan urged federal and state authorities to engage in “closer liaison” with local government and the community on the replenishment of the Moorabool. Cr Doull said each of the river’s qualities had been in decline to the point of extinction for a number of years due to water harvesting and lengthy drought. He said the flow on effects impacted on the Barwon River and internationally significant wetlands at Lake Connewarre. Cr Doull said authorities had failed
in brief Hunted here A POLICE manhunt for an alleged gunman on the loose reached Geelong this week before officers eventually swooped on Colac’s David Rowntree at Whittlesea, north of Melbourne. Police alleged Rowntree, 19, stole a car from Geelong before making his way back to Melbourne during his day and a half on the run following an armed robbery in the early hours of Monday morning.
Port millions TRADE through Geelong’s port will triple to be worth $220 million a year to the region’s economy by 2030, according to State Government. Roads and Ports Minister Tim Pallas released the prediction in conjunction with the opening of a $28 million, project to almost double the length of a wharf at Corio Quay to berth ships reaching 230 metres long.
Lanes promised MOTORISTS will enjoy four lanes of highway between Winchelsea and Colac if Labor Prime Minister Kevin Rudd loses the next federal election, opposition leader Tony Abbott has promised. Mr Abbott said the duplication of the highway would build on plans for the same work between Geelong and Colac to provide the region with a “major economic boost”.
Racing back Hope flows: People for a Living Moorabool’s George Belcher inspects the struggling river this week. Picture: Tommy Ritchie 49256 to meet commitments to the river in a 2006 Central Highlands sustainable water strategy. “This is at least in part attributable to the dry conditions experienced across the region in recent years,” he said. “However, it is evident that these conditions now appear to be easing, as earlier this year Central Highlands Water announced an easing of water restrictions in Ballarat, given increased water supplies and security
including the connection to the Goldfields super pipe,” Cr Doull said. “It is timely to remind all parties of existing responsibilities to the Moorabool River.” Mr Steele said PALM had been fighting for the river for four years. The coalition represented hope of saving the river, he said. “The river has suffered in the past by being split among the shires and electorates.
“The State Government has made commitments in the past of 6000 megalitres to come on stream when Geelong and Ballarat both had augmented water supplies. “With the Melbourne-Geelong interconnection, the Anglesea borefield and the Goldfields super pipe, that condition is being met. “It’s time to put the flow back into the Moorabool,” Mr Steele said.
HORSE races will return to Geelong’s synthetic track after a “longer than expected” trial of reconstruction work, according to Racing Victoria. Chief executive Rob Hines said racing would resume on Tuesday after a positive response from jockeys and trainers, with six meetings programmed before the end of the season on July 31.
Vendor call GEELONG’S mayor has issued a call for food vendors to feed an estimated 300,000 spectators at spring’s cycling world championships in the city. The organisers were seeking expressions of interest at the event’s melbourne2010.om.au website to supply “any sort of fast food”, John Mitchell said.
Food lights A “TRAFFIC light system” identifying foods by their healthiness has begun operating at Geelong Arena. Councillor Kylie Fisher said the healthiest foods were categorised as green, while yellow denoted “okay” and red was for “less-healthy choice”.
Water costs rising as NO DEBT..! one in 10 ‘go hungry’ ... it’s what we all want..!
“Already we have one-in-10 in Geelong have been unable to put food on the table in the past year because the household has run out of money,” she said. “The (cost of) basic essential services should allow people to be able to live. “We’ve had quite a cold snap over the past week and people have needed to use their gas or electricity to heat their homes. “These are not luxuries – they are basic costs and essential services for people.” VCOSS commissioned a study on the Geelong area last year, finding local households were under pressure from rising living costs. Ms Atkins said the study proved the
rising cost of living had become a “significant drain”. “Many families are spending 30 or more per cent of their income on housing, so that doesn’t leave very much for water and energy bills, any health costs or just meeting school fees,” she said. Ms Atkins said the squeeze on families was also increasing demand for counselling services while causing a spike in family violence and putting extra pressure on parents. Barwon Water managing director Michael Malouf said further increases were in the pipeline. The extra revenue would help the authority pay for a capital works program of more than $700 million,
including around $130 million to connect Geelong to Melbourne’s water supply next year. “All major capital works projects will result in a price increase,” Mr Malouf said. He could not say how much extra local consumers would pay after the connection to Melbourne was complete. Geelong users will pay more in line with additional costs in Melbourne for desalinated water. “The amount will be determined once the pipeline is completed and operational,” Mr Malouf said. Barwon Water hit customers with a 13.8 per cent increase last year, or about $100, to pay for fluoridation.

BY ANDREW MATHIESON RISING living costs have left one-in10 Geelong families unable to put food on the table, according to Victorian Council of Social Services. And more pain is on the way after Barwon Water announced a 10 per cent hike in charges, with average household bills to rise $80 to $868 a year. The council for social services has called on State Government to scrap caps on water concessions for lowincome earners and pensioners to keep pace with the latest “massive” hikes in water prices, starting next Thursday. VCOSS acting chief executive Carolyn Atkins said rapidly rising bills were “eating up more and more of people’s fixed incomes”.

Coast fears debt crisis repeat Bellbrae’s Rod Foord said all groups were unhappy with council’s “back-flip” on development at Spring Creek. Community objection to Spring Creek development attracted an “unprecedented number of objections in Victorian planning history”, he said. “Council promised not to make any decision until the Sustainable Futures Torquay Jan Juc 2040 planning debate took place but in recent months has been lobbying Planning Minister Justin Madden on (a) planning scheme amendment, including moving the
Torquay boundary to allow development at Spring Creek.” Mr Madden recently approved the amendment, paving the way for residential development beyond the western boundary. “We’re not opposed to growth as such – we’re opposed to the fact our elected representatives are not listening to us or explaining why they’re so hell-bent on growth,” Mr Foord said. “We also question council’s desperate push for growth because its debt is running close to 60 per cent of revenue base. It’s a matter of extreme concern if council is
driving growth to generate rate revenue to overcome debt.” In a recent media release council admitted its debt was at 57 per cent of rate revenue but said State Government’s prudential level for councils was 80 per cent. Former councillor Ron Humphrey said the recommended prudential rate was actually 60 per cent: “The Victorian Auditor General has established that debt levels above 60 per cent represent potential long-term concern about the ability to repay debt,” he said. Mr Humphrey said council had already outstripped a strategic
resource plan put in place in 2007 to specifically prevent another build-up of excessive debt. Speak up for Spring Creek’s Grant Forbes said the community was generally dissatisfied with council and State Government. “They made promises and have not kept them,” he said. “There’s more anti-council feeling now that when the Spring Creek rallies occurred.” Surfcoast Community and Ratepayers Association’s Spencer Leighton said his group was “outraged” at the “done deal” between council and the Government to
Portarlington road so rough ‘drivers crash’ BY KIM WATERS A PORTARLINGTON foreshore road is so rough it makes drivers crash, according to police and residents. They have demanded urgent repairs to Beach Parade after attributing a series of car accidents to the road’s crumbling surface and numerous potholes. Portarlington Police Sergeant Dave O’Conner labelled Beach Parade “dangerous”. “The road is covered in potholes and it needs to be resealed from the pier along the park area,” Sgt O’Conner said. “It’s had potholes for years and (Bellarine Bayside Foreshore Committee of Management) throws a few stones in the potholes as a quick repair but it hasn’t helped.” Sgt O’Conner said that the popular road was particularly dangerous late at night when hoons tried to show off while negotiating the rough surface. “We’ve intercepted quite a few hoon drivers really late at night. It’s a pretty bad road and it’s dangerous.” Resident Pamela Edwards said local motorists treated the potholes and a bump from a drain running under Beach Parade as “speed bumps”. “It’s so dangerous because hitting that drain at a medium speed would send a car flying and tourists just aren’t aware

Picture: Tommy Ritchie of it,” Ms Edwards said. “The potholes are so bad you can easily lose control of your car if you don’t see them, especially at night. “There has been accidents there in the past and something needs to be done about it.” Ms Edwards urged Bellarine Bayside to fix the road or risk “endangering” lives. “Looking at the condition of Beach Parade – it’s clearly not a safe place to take a family,”
she said. “Portarlington relies so much on tourism and people won’t come to visit if we can’t even get safe roads for them to drive on down to the bay. “The road is so bad you drive on it at your own peril – it’s hopeless.” Portarlington Community Association spokesperson Stephen Wilkinson said the committee had started work on a walking path alongside

change the western boundary. Mr Leighton said the association was also worried about council’s growing debt, set to top $18 million. He wanted a “clear explanation” on how much council would spend and borrow for new offices as part of its $40 million civic precinct project. “We can see that rates will be rapidly increased to fund infrastructure borrowings. We don’t want a repeat of council’s debt problems of a few years ago.” Council refused to respond to the Independent’s request for comment.

Dissatisfaction with Surf Coast council’s performance has led to reconstitution of Speak Up for Spring Creek lobby group as part of an alliance of community organisations. Representatives of eight community groups met late last week to form the alliance. The groups claimed council was irresponsible for putting the community “back into a mess after suffering 18 per cent rate rises to get them out of the last mess.”

Here they come: Vuvuzelas in action at the World Cup. Australia’s match with Ghana. A City of Greater Geelong spokesman said the city would “generally abide by EPA guidelines” restricting noise to 65 decibels if fans brought the horns to local events such as the City’s world cup live site at the Arena. Controlling the use of the 127decibel instruments at open-air events has proven difficult for officials. Vuvuzelas have been banned at a number of events in Australia, including AFL matches. Appaloosa director Vaughn de Kretser said his company had recorded a 1000 per cent increase in orders of vuvuzelas from Australia and the Asia-Pacific region. Appaloosa had placed mass orders for vuvuzelas with producers in southern China, he said.
“We’ve been selling this product for the last three or four months but since the World Cup started it’s transformed sales. It’s like everybody wants to grab a World Cup memento.” Mr De Krester said Appaloosa had decided to direct retail the product in packs of two for $22 as a means of raising the company’s profile. “We’re dispatching 250 items a day because we’re the only ones retailing them in Australia. We had a hunch they could become a bit of a hit. “Volume is everything for this product right now.” Mr De Kretser said fans had now worked out how to extract a tune from the normally monotonous B-flat tone.

BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN GEELONG retailers are scrambling for supplies of a cheap, plastic, novelty horn that has blasted its way to infamy at South Africa’s FIFA World Cup. The popularity of the vuvuzela threatens to make it the dominant soundtrack to a series of significant events in the Geelong region, including spring’s UCI world cycling championships. Tates Toyworld manager Heather Dorris said her store was out of stock but trying to contact suppliers. “We’ve tried to get some more but we can’t get any. If we could get some we would – we’ve sold them before.” Westfield’s Geelong Mostly Two Dollars store said customers were asking for the horns. The store would source stock if the demand continued, a staff member said. Sydney distributor Appaloosa Toys appears to have cornered the vuvuzela market in Australia, retailing the horn through the company’s website and on eBay. About 300 vuvuzela’s are available for sale on eBay, with buynow prices ranging from $8 to $12. Officials have allowed vuvuzelas at the world cup in South Africa but discouraged them from soccer’s official Fan Fest bigscreen site in Sydney during

Residents bypassed: Margarita Kumnick and other Grovedale residents protesting the bypass extension plan. Picture: Tommy Ritchie 48934
Residents fighting $77m bypass link BY ANDREW MATHIESON HUNDREDS of Grovedale residents are protesting plans to extend Geelong’s bypass to Surf Coast Highway, according to their spokesperson. Margarita Kumnick said residents of Bickford, Riatta, Hansen and Burleigh streets opposed State Government’s plan to build the extension close to their homes, fearing their property prices would plummet. Ms Kumnick said occupants of more than 200 homes had signed a petition against the project. “This can destroy people’s lives,” she said.
“There are people selling their house because they can’t afford to keep it. They can’t find a comparable house in Grovedale, so they’re going to have to leave the suburb.” The Government announced $77 million for the Surf Coast Highway connection in last month’s state budget. Ms Kumnick said residents “fell across” maps of the bypass extension on a Geelong council website only after South Barwon MP Michael Crutchfield had announced the funding. Council’s on-line link estimated more than 16,000 cars would use the new extension
every day on top of 20,000 already using Torquay Road to Surf Coast Highway. “At first I showed people that map with the planned highway and some people couldn’t believe it,” Mrs Kumnick said. “Other people who had read the map were really concerned and signed (the petition) straight away. “Others didn’t believe it and said (the Government) wouldn’t do that.” Ms Kumnick said an Armstrong Creek planning committee, not Vicroads, was behind the proposed bypass extension. Residents had abandoned an initial option to sanction a 50-

metre green corridor between the highway and their homes. Mrs Kumnick said residents wanted the Government to move the bypass extension further south away from Grovedale and Marshall. They had also called on community consultation with planning authorities. “We want the outcome to adversely affect the smallest number of people – the road’s got to go somewhere but here it’s going to affect a lot of people,” Ms Kumnick said. “We built next to a railway line but we never built next to a big highway – it was never in their plans.”

Siblings escape years apart in aged care
Home of our own PUBLIC NOTICE INCREASE IN LANDFILL LEVIES The Victorian Government recently announced a proposal to increase municipal and industrial waste landfill levies. The proposed levy increase will come into effect from 1 July 2010. The rise in levy will result in significant increases in disposal fees the City’s landfills. For residential customers the new levy will mean that a boot load of waste will rise from $9.50 to $12.50 whilst a trailer will increase from $17.50 to $27.00. For commercial customers a tonne of industrial waste will now cost $71.30. Landfill levies are administered by the EPA on behalf of the Victorian government. The Victorian government would invest the $53.7 million raised by the levy over the next five years to help businesses, councils, households and communities address waste and its environmental impacts and assist in the transition to the higher levy rates. For more information regrading this initiative contact the EPA at www.epa.vic.gov.au
UPCOMING EVENT
BY ANDREW MATHIESON FOR loving siblings Chris and Nicole Jones, life’s fun again, just like when they little kids. “My bedroom is right across from his,” said Ms Jones, 31, looking across to her 35-yearold brother as he smiled broadly. “I’ve been known to throw my socks over to him for a bit of fun.” Both had been stuck for more than a decade in separate agedcare facilities, robbing them of their bond in the prime of their lives. Recognising the Geelong problem of young disabled people trapped in aged care, disability services provider Karingal committed to a purpose-built facility at Belmont to house five residents. Temporary accommodation nearby will host Mr and Ms Jones until the Amundsen Street
project is complete. Ms Jones said her parents were also rapt with the change of address. “They know they’re welcome and are happy to visit us much more often than when we were in aged care facilities with elderly residents,” she said. Ms Jones was thrilled to finally find a place offering services for young people with disabilities “I like this place – it feels like home. I have my own room, my own lap-top, I can shut the door and listen to my own music.” Mr Jones was happy to survey his new place with his trusty pet dog at his side. “Wherever I go, Dusty goes,” he said. Karingal general manager Robyn Bradshaw said the latest respite-care initiative was more than four years in the making. She said the lives of the Jones
Home sweet home: Chris and Nicole Jones inspect work on their new home. Picture: Tommy Ritchie 48961 siblings were restricted in aged care. “It (the new facility) certainly was about highlighting the fact that there was many young people living in nursing homes and it wasn’t appropriate for them to
be living there,” she says. “I suppose it shouldn’t take too much to think about walking in their shoes and imagining how dreadful it would be for them to be living in residential aged care.”

A TRIAL of new safety gear on Geelong posties is set to add a dash of vivid colour to mail runs around the state, according to Australia Post. Spokesperson Melanie Ward said Geelong posties had participated in a trial of new high-visibility uniforms and bike “enhancements” with “encouraging results”. Accidents were down significantly and posties had reported improved confidence while on
the road, Ms Ward said. The trial followed a report in the Independent last year revealing City of Greater Geelong was a national hot-spot for posties falling victim to careless drivers and dog attacks. The City had recorded 38 “serious incidents” in the previous year, prompting Australia Post to call for residents and motorists to consider the safety of posties. Ms Ward said the results of
Ex-coast musician wins APRA award FORMER Surf Coast musician Ash Grunwald has won one of the Australian music industry’s highest awards. Grunwald won APRA Music Awards’ Blues and Roots Work of the Year for his single Breakout. The award victory was the first time Grunwald has won an APRA title despite numerous previous nominations. He shared the award with Breakout co-writer Pip Norman. Grunwalled said he was thrilled to win the award. “It really means a lot to me,” he said. “It’s great to be recognised by your peers for your songwriting ability.” The former Torquay resident moved from the Surf Coast to Byron Bay, in northern New South Wales, six months ago. The win has provided welcome momentum as Grunwald tours Australia to promote his latest album, Hot Mama Vibes. Grunwald spent a night off touring to accept his APRA award.

the safety trial could save lives. Australia Post would now begin rolling out the safety improvements around Victoria. However, Ms Ward said drivers should still keep their eyes peeled for posties despite the safety upgrade. “It’s a timely reminder for the community to keep a look out for posties when reversing out of driveways or generally on the road,” she said.

The Independent, Friday June 25, 2010.
City to screen hoons, bogans BY ALEX DE VOS GEELONG’S reputation for “car culture� has attracted the premiere of a movie about hoons and bogans, according to its creator. Writer, producer and director Aaron Stevenson said he would unveil Hoon Capital in Geelong next month. The Bendigo resident said his six-part television series explored the Australian phenomenon of “hoonism� and what drove people to take extreme risks behind the wheel. Mr Stevenson said Hoon Capital included commentary about Geelong and “its strong car culture�. “From my understanding there are quite a lot of hoons in Geelong,� Mr Stevenson said. “Geelong is a car-oriented town and makes up a large part of our demographic.� Mr Stevenson said the series did not intend to encourage dangerous driving. “We’re not pro-hoons,� he said. “We explore why people do things and the psychology behind it.� The documentary follows an Independent report in 2008 that revealed Geelong was the secondworst city for hoon offences in regional Victoria behind Bendigo. In 2006 Geelong police were given new powers to impound, immobilise or confiscate cars if officers caught drivers drag-racing, performing burnouts or engaging in other dangerous driving.
Car culture: Scenes from Hoon Capital.
Mr Stevenson said the television show would also explain the state’s anti-hoon legislation. “We have this legislation but people don’t know what it’s all about,� he said.
“The series doesn’t have a positive slant on hoons – we’re not saying you should be a hoon.� Fatal Impact Productions will screen Hoon Capital at Geelong’s Ford Museum on July 19.

A GROUP of Burmese refugees are showing Geelong employees the meaning of a good work ethic, according to a multicultural services provider. Diversitat said it had run a survey of local businesses participating in an initiative encouraging employment of refugee staff, finding that refugees from Burma’s Karen community returned “exceptional” results. Boomaroo Nurseries human resources manager Calum Urquhart said his experience with the workers was “extremely pleasing”. “Based on our positive experience, we would recommend any employer give strong consideration to complementing their current workforce by assisting this group with employment opportunities,” Mr Urquhart said. “Their employment has definitely renewed our employees’ sense of teamwork.” Mr Urquhart said the new employees had “uplifted morale” with their hard working attitude. “The Karen employees settled in very quickly and were readily accepted into the workplace, engaging in meaningful conversations, providing input into group meetings and workplace safety,” he said. “Their attendance, attitude, work ethic and appreciation of being given an opportunity exceeds that of many of the workforce.” Mr Urquhart said the Karen employees’ commitment was a “positive example” for other workers. “They’re having their own personal challenges, such as integration, language restrictions, acceptance and a steep curve learning. The commitment shown by all has been commendable and proven this initiative to be very successful.” Diversitat revealed Colac timber products manufacturer CMTP had reported favourable results from employing two Afghan refugees as part of the initiative. CMTP spokesperson Travis Meade said his company initially took on the Afghanis to “fill a gap” in his workplace.

The Lion king IT COULD be a scene played out behind the Vatican walls rather than in another dusty Australian hall. Wise old heads gather around, interview candidates, analyse credentials and, after four or five ballots elect their new leader. But this time the only white smoke to waft out – which would otherwise ceremoniously signal a new pope – is from the occasional puffs of a cigarette smoked by weary Lions clubs’ governors celebrating a job well done. The similarity to the process in the papal enclave causes the Lions’ latest national council chairman, Bob Gilchrist, to giggle uncontrollably. “It’s a bit like that,” he jokes, “but without the robes.” Bob’s record with Lions as a two-time Leopold club, secretary, treasurer, even district chairman representing a handful of zones and 68 small clubs in Victoria’s south west, makes for an impressive portfolio. Outpointing seven rival district governors from three states won him Bob the final nod for the national job. But, surprisingly, the service club organisation

Local Legends ANDREW MATHIESON established in Australia in 1947 has never had a Geelong resident ascend to the top until this year. “I don’t know why,” Bob ponders. “I know three others here have gone for it but it’s a process of elimination.” Once in the job, the role as national council chairman is more akin to politicking. During the one-year term, the chairman presides over the national convention and meetings all over the country. At every public appearance Bob’s wife, Barbara, joins his side more often than would the partner of the most popular Prime Minister. Partners are an integral part of any Lions’ governor’s leadership chances. In fact, they even play their part in the election process. As a husband, Bob’s smart like a pollie, too, mentioning Barbara’s name in dispatches like a wellworn speech. “She’s there to keep me in line with the fans as well,” he says. Just like a campaign trail, Bob and Barbara hop into a car after lunch in Ballarat to head toward Heywood for the afternoon where, as chairman, he will swear in the club’s new board of directors. It’s all part of the job, Bob observes. Not that he wants a rest but, at 70, he probably deserves one. After arriving from Northern Ireland in 1959 Bob joined Australia’s original Apex club in Geelong. The club sponsored him to work at the city’s Ford factory in product development for the next 34 years under the former Bring out a Brit scheme. As a young man, he learned how to express himself with confidence in Apex through traditional public speaking competitions. “But I still have the nerves talking until I get into it,” Bob admits five decades on. “I’ve had to speak in front of 1200 (people), so I sort of have confidence speaking in front of large crowds.” However, Bob’s stage fright withers away when he dons a costume and his voice can reach a higher octave in song when indulging his love of amateur theatre. He has no fear in playing leading musical roles as Curly in Okalahoma, Billy Bigelow in Carousel, Ben Rumson in Paint Your Wagon and Colonel Buffalo Bill in Annie Get Your Gun. Bob has produced shows year after year and run workshops that have seen Guy Pearce, Barry Crocker and Tim McCallum walk through the theatre doors. Bob now restricts productions to retirement homes these days but still can’t crack the habit of putting on a good show for the audience. “I got involved with the theatre way back and have done a fair bit of singing,” Bob proudly boasts. “I enjoy working back stage and front of house at times but I enjoy the performing the most.”
buckets & bouquets
BUCKETS to someone who pinched my car’s side indicators while I was out for dinner with friends. I have decided never to return to the restaurant where we were dining. I hope the person gets what’s coming to them. Very Disgusted, Leopold BUCKETS to an uncaring man who bought my puppies, telling me they were for himself. What a lie! He also ripped me off and gave a dodgy phone number. He drove away with his radio so loud that my babies would have been terrified. Despicable, Lethbridge
BOUQUETS to nurse Wayne at McKellar Centre for his helpful manner when I enquired about a patient. It was most appreciated. Ex-Nurse, Portarlington BUCKETS to whoever is responsible for an entertainment venue’s advertisement in another newspaper. The ad is so small it is hard to read. A competitor’s ad is a lot bigger. My friends agree that the first venue’s ad must be smaller because it is cheaper. Hard To See, East Geelong BUCKETS to Go To The Highway (Buckets and Bouquets, June 18). If you don’t speed it won’t matter how often speed camera cars operate in your neighbourhood. By the sounds of it the operators have a good reason to set up in your area. Slow Down Stupid, Grovedale
BUCKETS to a neighbour in a quiet court for choosing to have our much-loved cat impounded. She is a friendly, well-caredfor and precious pet who did not deserve to be impounded. If there was an issue the neighbour should have seen us. Neighbours should look after each other. Disappointed, Highton
BUCKETS to a low-life who smashed into my parked car in Ghazeepore Road, Waun Ponds, during the afternoon of June 9. You did a lot of damage to my car. If you had left your details you would only have had to pay the excess on my insurance. Maria, Waurn Ponds
BOUQUETS to the kind person who returned my handbag after I left it on the 62 bus on June 15. Your honesty was much appreciated. CP, Whittington
BOUQUETS to Geelong RSL for a wonderful night. Our group of ladies enjoyed good food, service and entertainment by Soul Sister Swing. We will be back. Curves, East Geelong
BOUQUETS to all the people who helped my mum and I after an accident on Fisher Street, Torquay, at 6.15pm on June 15. It was scary and you were so nice. We are getting better every day and are thankful for air bags and seatbelts. Hugs to you all. Seven-Year-Old Jordan, Torquay

letters Truth about CPATSS
k c o t S e v i s s a M
I WAS disappointed by Glenda Arenson’s comment in last week’s Independent regarding concerns about Concerned Parents About Torquay-Surfcoast Schooling (CPATSS), that “we haven’t got any negative feedback” This is simply wrong. I have written twice to express my concerns. I am also not the only person to articulate concerns and “negative feedback”. I am further disappointed by the lack of response to my most recent email to the group on June 7, in which I posed a number of questions regarding the efficacy of the group’s campaign. The lack of response made me wonder whether my questions were just too difficult to answer or whether they revealed the lack of substance and educational basis for CPATSS’s campaign. The more research I undertake the greater my concern about CPATSS and its motivation. If it truly had the best interests of children at heart it would stop and listen to the views of the majority rather than continue its politically motivated, highly partial, damaging and noticeably fluid campaign. I note the current concern being pushed is congestion in Grossman’s Road - has CPATSS finally realised the lack of rigour in its case against the principle of P-12 schooling? Of course people are entitled to their opinions but if CPATSS wishes to have any credibility it should at least give the people of Torquay the truth. C Farmer Torquay

REGARDING David McRae’s letter titled ‘Bullied into pipeline’ in last week’s Independent, can someone tell me what is going on with State Government’s mentality. Which part of no does it not understand? The community is labelled if we say yay or nay. What is the hurry with the pipeline? Where was the consultation? Who is paying for the pipeline? Who benefits from it? Are our representatives afraid the truth may hurt them? Independent candidate for South Barwon Keith Oakley may come up with some answers for us.

The writer also said it was fairer when a profit was not made. Therefore, he can hand half his wages back. No company works without trying to make a profit for its shareholders. If you look into Wayne Swan’s ear you can see straight through. Bob Brown would be proud of him. D Freeman Lara Lake

STUART McCallum and Jacinta Stephenson (Letters, June 18) rely on ridicule to discredit anyone who dares disagree with their alarmist climate change views. Today it has become all too easy to attribute natural disasters to climate change. Many well-intended people have been swept along by this touchy-feely, do-gooder environmentalism. What must be kept in mind is that so-called experts who have committed Australia, England and the USA to take action on global warming are mostly economists. Contrary to what alarmists would have us believe, there is hardly scientific consensus on climate change. Twenty-five years ago many scientists were warning of an impending ice age - now they say the planet is warming! Who knows, in 10 years from now they may predict another ice age given solar cycle number 24 is upon us, which means less sunspot activity and cooler temperatures. The pursuit of scientific knowledge is a journey, not a destination. I, like many others, laymen and scientists alike, reject the thesis of global warming because of the science. If Mr McCallum and Ms Stephenson are so convinced they have got it right on climate change then I challenge them to debate me at a venue and date of their choosing. Those of us who reject the dodgy science of the IPCC do so because we have solid grounds and would welcome the opportunity to bring this to the attention of the public. Alan Barron Grovedale
letters Questionable survey GEELONG Regional Libraries is asking users in a survey to “tell us what you think is important”. The eight-page survey contains 180 items, mostly tick-a-box or circle-a-number, but almost nothing on books. I had thought books were the core business of the library, that most library users borrowed books and that many sought a quiet place in which to read their books. Naively, I had expected the library to take a real interest in books and to ask users for their views on the scope and quality of its collection, on writers, genres and subjects. Instead, the library merely asks whether books in general are useful or important and whether “this service” is satisfactory. Express your enthusiasm on a scale of one to three. Do not elaborate. With books thus dispatched, the library bestows comparable importance on sundry matters from computer clubs to council services and on personal matters such as the age, income and postcode of the respondent. Many survey respondents will dutifully tick their boxes without much thought for the scope of the questions or the possible interpretation of their answers. Not happy with the books? Well, books are just
one consideration among dozens and we can’t do everything. Many respondents will meekly accept they can not offer substantial comment on matters of their choosing. This is regrettable because the self-appointed social engineers of Little Malop Street will claim to have consulted stakeholders and will carry on “building communities” when they should be building libraries. Andrew Hackett South Geelong
Anger expanding SURFCOAST Community and Ratepayers Association is bewildered that, according to Planning Minister Justin Madden, the western boundary of Torquay is now one kilometre west of Duffields Road, meaning a large part of Spring Creek Valley is now available for housing. We thought this had been held in abeyance until Surf Coast Shire’s 2040 plan was finalised. Duffields Road should be the boundary to stop longitudinal sprawl on both sides of the Great Ocean Road, with its resultant traffic and beach access problems. This one-kilometre strip will create many problems apart from ruining the valley. Torquay’s expansion, if it must expand, should be
to the north where the land is more amenable to housing and where there would be fewer infrastructure problems. Does our council have any power? Did it not listen when thousands of people cried no to development of Spring Creek Valley earlier this year? We would like some answers.

Ideas for Westfield WESTFIELD Geelong should have a good takeaway food outlet like a Hungry Jacks or a McDonald’s. It should also have a cinema, which would give people something to do while shopping and it would be a safe place for a cinema. If Westfield has the space or is thinking about building again soon, I hope it would consider a cinema. Brian Porter South Geelong

Our tax system needs to change. The first step is to make it simpler and fairer for everyone. We all know that we live in a time of rapid change. We see it happening all around us. Our population is ageing. New challenges arise almost every day. So it’s important for us to have a tax system that is able to meet those challenges. By making our tax system simpler and fairer for individuals and business, the proposed tax reforms are an important first step towards making our economy stronger and preparing us for the years ahead. Increasing our super By 2050, one in four Australians will be over 65. We need to plan for that and make sure everyone has enough super for a comfortable retirement. That’s why raising the superannuation guarantee and contributing more to super is so important. Better tax on savings Under the current system, interest income is taxed higher than many other forms of savings. To make it fairer, there will be a tax cut on bank and other interest income. This will reward Australians who put money away for their future. Making tax simpler Tax will be made simpler for individuals by introducing standard deductions, and for business by simplifying depreciation rules. Cutting tax for small business Small business is one of our biggest employers. So anything that makes it easier for small business to grow and do business is good for all of us. Giving small business companies an early tax cut is a good start. And instant write-off of assets up to $5,000 and simplified depreciation for all small business will improve their cash flow and cut down on paperwork. A fairer share of our resources wealth Before the last mining boom, the Australian people received $1 in every $3 of mining profits through royalties and resource charges. By the end of that boom, our share had fallen to just $1 in every $7. Changing the way we tax mining profits will ensure everyone shares in the benefits of our natural resources. The proposed reforms will affect all of us, so it’s important that you know what’s on the table.

Joe blows back into Geelong musician said. “It’s pretty full on – I’m trying to catch a flight home tonight (after the gig in Sydney) so I can get to the studio the next morning. “My body is saying don’t do it but my mind is telling me otherwise. “It’s exciting, though. I won’t know what to do with myself when it’s out.” Camilleri and his band The Black Sorrows will showcase tracks from the new album in Geelong this weekend. He said fans could look forward to hearing some fresh sounds as well as plenty of the band’s old chestnuts including Hold On To Me, Chained To The Wheel and Harley and Rose. “I’ve played in Geelong many times now and it’s always a fun gig,” Camilleri said. “There are different people from different age groups and as long as you do the songs they remember they’re happy. “You also want to play things they haven’t heard before and I think they expect that from me. “If I don’t do something new and create some atmosphere, they’ll think I’ve given up.” Joe Camilleri and The Black Sorrows will perform at Deakin Waterfront Cafe on Sunday.

He’s gotta wear shades: Joe Camilleri is still playing around Australia in his fifth decade of music.
BY ALEX DE VOS AT THE age of 62 most rock and roll artists would be thinking about hanging up their guitars for good. But veteran Australian musician Joe Camilleri is showing no signs of slowing down. Preparing to board a plane bound for Sydney, Camilleri told the Independent over the phone he would continue belting out tunes for as long as his aligning diaphragm allowed him. Now in his 46th year of performing, Camilleri still clocks up between 150 and 180 shows each year in between writing and recording. “If I can stay healthy I’ll keep playing,” he said. “I reckon it’s great – if you’re still writing songs and you believe you’re still in the game then no one can take that away from you, except for dementia. “We’re never off the road – we’re like those old, hairy work horses. “But that’s what we love to do.” Camilleri said he was working on a new album that he hoped would hit shelves sometime this year. “I’ve mixed 10 of the songs but I’ve probably got another 16 to do,” the legendary Melbourne

hef Chris Kinley and owner Ron Budd have decided it’s time for change with a new menu at Henry’s Heritage Restaurant. Seated in the dining room among historical photos of the township, diners can graze on local Meredith cheese platters or indulge in fanciful oyster combinations, Thai-style prawns or a range of ciabatta or sourdough delights. Main courses also feature the use of local cheeses on dishes such as herbed prawns Napoli-blended through fettucini or beef in red wine pie. A number of chicken, lamb and vegetarian dishes are available. Henry’s Hertiage Restaurant can also cook dishes for special needs, such as gluten-free recipes, on request. Risotto has become popular at Henry’s, while discerning diners should not miss the restaurant’s home-made stocks. Six flavours of parmigiana are available every day of the week, with the Blazing Saddles recipe highly popular during winter months. Home-made strudel served with hot custard or caramel puddings are part of the dessert menu, which changes weekly. Kids in particular love the desserts at Henry’s. Meredith is only a 30-minutre drive north of Geelong, half way between to Ballarat on the Midland Highway. Local wines are available, while Henry’s also serves Vittoria coffee. Bookings are essential to ensure a full complement of the menu. Group bookings are welcome. Henry’s Heritage Restaurant is open seven days a week at Meredith Country Hotel, phone 5286 1100.

Finally Friday THE CRITICALLY acclaimed production Lying Cheating Bastard combines James Galea’s three passions – magic, acting and music. “It’s also an interesting story,” the award-winning performer told the Independent. Part mystery, part coming of age and part magic show, Lying Cheating Bastard follows the life of Jimmy “the cricket” Galea – Australia’s most convincing conman. “I was learning from a guy who I thought was a magician but he was a conman and when I started telling people the story they thought it was really interesting,” Galea explained, “so we sat down and wrote the thing loosely based on his life.” The show features close-up projections of Galea’s card tricks live on stage with some audience participation and a piano solo thrown in for good measure. “I started out as an actor and magic was kind of my back-up plan – this is a way of combining all my skills,” he said. “What happens is the conman does all these things to try and cheat people out of
Tricky: James Galea stars in Lying Cheating Bastard at GPAC until Saturday night. their money. “I get the audience to become part of the show and help out with the tricks.” One lucky audience member will also have the chance to win $1000. “Great, huh,” Galea boasted.
Born and bred in Bondi, the 29-year-old said he was “loosely based here in Sydney and Los Angeles”. “Magic is big here but it’s really big over in the states,” he said. “I’ve also been doing some work for the Ellen DeGeneres Show, which is really interesting.” Galea plucked his maiden rabbit out of a hat at 14 and by 18 he had performed at James Packer’s first wedding and was starring in his own show at an isolated hot springs resort north of Tokyo. Despite more than a decade of creating illusions, Galea said the art of magic still surprised him. “It’s like asking an architect if he gets excited when he sees a building even though he knows how it’s built,” he explained. “I still appreciate a good piece of art when I see it. I still get excited – magic is my passion.” James Galea’s Lying Cheating Bastard finishes its run at Geelong Performing Arts Centre on Saturday night.

Homes turn to solar water warmth ome owners in Geelong have a new way to reduce energy consumption and power bills while doing their bit for the environment. Solahart, Australia’s leading manufacturer of solar water heaters, has appointed Climatic Air Conditioning as the new local dealer, servicing an area from the Bellarine Peninsula to Apollo Bay and Colac. With electric water heaters accounting for around 25 per cent of household energy consumption, switching to solar hot water is a great way to reduce household bills. Further savings of up to $1500 are available through federal and state rebates for eligible home owners replacing an electric system. Another $1000 is available in renewable energy certificates for a standard Solahart 300-litre system. “It was an easy decision to join up with Solahart, as right now is the perfect time to go solar,” Climatic Air Conditioning owner Damian McCormack says. “Along with the benefits of the rebates and incentives, switching to solar hot water reduces water heating energy consumption by up to 50 to 70 per cent depending on the system and the home’s location. “Replacing an electric water heater with a solar

he worst component of the 1923 Buick Roadster is the brakes, according to Roy Cook. “They’re only rear wheel drum brakes that are external-grabbing. It circles the drum and just squeezes mechanically,” the St Leonards’ resident explained. “But you’re not doing any real speed. Top speed is around 30mp/h [60 km/h] and after that it wobbles and shakes a bit - they can be very tiring to drive. “The car’s got three forward and one reverse gear. The gears are so low I can go through first, second and third very quick. “If I go through the gears quickly it feels like synchromesh but if I let it rev out I’ll have to try matching the revs and double clutch to try getting it into gear.” Roy said he used unleaded fuel in the old car but occasionally put in an

additive product. “The car has to be lubricated each time before it can be driven,” he said. “There are a couple of holes at the top of the rocker cover and I have to slide across a chute and it reveals a hole in the top of the rocker shaft. I introduce oil from the oil can onto a piece of soft felt that runs down the inside of the rocker shaft and that lets all the oil weep out onto the rockers. “It runs well as long as you keep plenty of oil in it. The excess oil just runs down the side of the motor and onto the ground but it doesn’t leak too much at all.” The motor is a three-litre, fourcylinder overhead valve. Roy said the car had quite a substantial gearbox, with a big floor shift. “The car has a multi-disc clutch with all these flat discs in it. They separate as the clutch is depressed. “When I first got the car going the clutch discs all stuck together and I couldn’t get them to separate. “I contacted the secretary of the Buick car club and he told me to spray them with kerosene. “I thought ‘Kero on clutches is not the usual thing’ but it worked well and they separate every time.

New-look store for Land Rover, BMW specialist technicians unter Cuthill has unveiled its new-look store which features a renovated reception room and office space, expansive parts storage area and convenient off-street parking. Hunter Cuthill’s Adam Hunter says the store, which specialises in Land Rover and BMWs still offers customers a variety of mechanical services at affordable prices. Hunter Cuthill also offers breakdown services and is fully equipped to service the latest models of BMW and Land Rover for 30 per cent less than what a dealership would charge. Adam says the store uses a computer diagnostic tool called Autologic, which is capable of doing everything on the computers of Land Rover models including the latest Discovery 3, Freelander 2 and Range Rover Sport. Autologic can also be used for servicing the latest BMW 3, 5 and 7 Series to the latest standards. “It’s the absolute best software at dealer standards,” Adam says. “It’s an outstanding piece of machinery.” Adam says the tool can also be used to complete a power upgrade on diesel Land Rovers. “It plugs into the car and downloads a new fuel map, giving 30 per cent more power and better fuel economy,” he says. Hunter Cuthill uses Castrol Oils, as recommended by Land Rover and BMW. Technicians Gordon Cuthill and Adam opened the workshop in 2005 as an independent specialist in Land Rover and BMW. Hunter Cuthill combines Gordon’s 25 years working on Land Rover vehicles with Adam’s more than a decade of experience with BMWs. For more information visit Hunter Cuthill at 9 Autumn Street, Geelong West or phone 5229 4299.

were also reducing their outputs. These are quality cars that seldom give any problems. They are relatively complex so most repairs should be left to the professionals. Preferably those trained in Mazdas because the fourwheel steering setup is a pretty specialised unit. The good amateur can do some routine servicing, but that should probably be the extent of home-based work on these sporty machines. You may also care to look at the Ford Probe while you are searching out Mazda MX-6s. Only sold here from 1994 until 1998, and never particularly successful, it shared many of its underbody components with the latter day Mazda MX-6. All the visible body panels are unique to the Ford, quite a few mechanical components are interchangeable. Turbocharged engines are generally reliable, provided they have been correctly driven and maintained. If there’s a service book with the car make sure the engine oil has been changed to schedule. Any untoward sounds from the turbo are a cause for concern, as is hesitation under acceleration and/or smoke from the exhaust. The fuel-injected V6 should start within a couple of seconds of the key being turned and immediately settle into a vibration-free idle. There should be no hesitation under acceleration and the exhaust should be free from smoke. Gear changes on the manual ‘box should be light and easy and automatics should change ratios almost imperceptibly. If the car is being driven very hard some shift shock is acceptable. Check for signs of uneven tyre wear, especially on the front tyres of a turbo MX-6. These could indicate hard driving, though it may be wheel misalignment problem. Look for signs of repairs to the bodywork. Paint that doesn’t quite match and/or ripples in the panels are relatively easy to spot once you have some experience. Be sure that all equipment works correctly, especially in the upmarket V6 variants. Use the owner’s handbook for details of operation of everything from the complex stereo to the multi-function ventilation system.

Too hot: 1994 Mazda MX-6 was considered a sleek family coupe but was too hot in the back seat.

BY ERIC BLAIR azda MX-6 is a sporty coupe that was sold in Australia in two distinctly different models. When launched in October 1987 it was a hard-edged machine for the serious driver. Using a turbocharged fourcylinder engine of 2.2-litre capacity it had plenty straight-line performance. Though, as was the way with most turbocharged engines of the era, it had too much turbo lag. First there wasn’t enough power then there was too much. Which was great fun if the driver was properly trained and alert. If you know what you are doing and drive the hot turbo Mazda according to its needs it can be very exhilarating. Most modern cars don’t demand any real skill from the driver, so enthusiasts of these early Mazda MX-6s take pride at getting the best from them. The biggest problem was that the MX-6 uses front-wheel drive and the wheels can be overwhelmed at full turbo boost at low road speeds. The result is savage torque steer, with the car even moving substantially sideways at times. It is even worse on wet roads. Four-wheel steering became an option in February 1989. Not so much to tame the torque steer as to improve high-speed cornering. It also makes parking simpler. The 1991 MX-6 has a sleek appearance with a distinctly pronounced slope of the cabin at the rear. Headroom in the back seat suffers. Try it with the kids if you are thinking of using the car as a family coupe because not only is there restricted space over the seat, but also the glass can let in too much summer sun. Both the MX-6 models are sold with the choice between a five-speed manual and four-speed automatic transmission. The automatic is the more common in the later models, the manual is the unit of choice in the sporting turbo. After a reasonable amount of success on the Australian market, the Mazda MX-6 was removed from the scene in September 1997. That was more a result of the severe rationalisation that was taking place in the financially troubled Mazda corporation, than because of any fault with the cars. But coupes were also falling out of favour at the time and other makers

How Ron made a Buick from parts
1/56 Sun Street, Moolap
- from page 77 Roy was inspired by the many beautifully restored old cars that passed his front door in Bendigo on their way to the city’s famous swap meet. This fueled his ambition to restore and drive an old car of his own. Roy bought the old Buick in Bendigo as a pile of bits and pieces about 25 years ago. “I decided to buy the car because it was a Buick – I thought it would be better value than a Chev,” he said. “I was living in Bendigo at the time and I bought it from this bloke who had found it rusting in a paddock near St Arnaud. “This bloke had every intention of restoring it but all he did was pull it all to pieces and realised it was too hard, so he advertised it for sale. “I had a big shed in the backyard in Bendigo and I bought all the bits home in four trailer loads. “He should have left it the way he found it in the paddock - at least that way it would have made it easier for me to restore.” Fortunately, among the bits and pieces of the old Buick was a manual and a parts book. This helped Roy, who was a fitter and turner at the time, start the restoration. “But it still took me 15 years to restore it working on it at weekends and at night after work,” he admitted. “It was also about finding the time and the money. “I did about 60 per cent of the restoration and got a bodywork specialist in Chewton near Bendigo to do the body repairs. No one in Bendigo wanted to touch the panels - they preferred to do just modern stuff.” “I did all the mechanical work and the chassis restoration. It’s got a big, conventional chassis that goes right through from front to back.”

1923 technology: Bonnet mounted temperature gauge and “soft-acting” drum brakes on the rear wheels only. The body frame was all softwood timber but Roy was advised to restore all the woodwork using hardwood. “I had to copy the framing for the doors. The doors had meranti softwood in them but it was recommended that I should use hardwood throughout. “This proved to be a major job just trying to get the angles right. The old cars were all built from a timber frame. “They were true craftsmen the old coachbuilders in those days. The biggest job was trying to get the angles right before I put the skin over them.” Roy soon discovered it was more difficult than it appeared. “When you are trying to do a door and it slopes and curves all different ways and angles, it’s very hard. “A lot of the woodwork was done for me by a bloke with a band saw. He cut it approximately but the timber work still took me hours and hours to finish to get it right.” To make the restoration even more complex, the two-seater
Buick had been cut down the back and converted into a utility at some stage in its life. “I had a pile of original timber shapes but I didn’t have the original back on it so we had to rebuild it from pictures and spec sheets,” Roy remembered. the mudguards and the hardwood timber running boards were rebuilt and new rubber added, while vents were cut in new panels. The Buick is a roadster version – a two-seater with a boot. The boot lid opens towards the front but in later models it was swapped so it opened to the rear and offered as an optional “dickie” seat. When Roy moved to St Leonards a few years ago he drove the car all the way from Bendigo. “The wife followed me all the way in her car at 60km/h and, although they’re not meant to be a long-distance car, the Buick made the trip well.” Roy is still a member of Buick Car Club of Australia.

Wattlebird Gardening maintains gardens around the family home. Wife Monika, husband Steve and son Ben Brooks have been tidying up the Geelong area for six years. The family business handles a series of garden makeovers including pruning roses, mowing lawns and general yard maintenance. Cleaning up gardens and taking away rubbish for house sales are another important service. Monika says preparing for re-growth was important to a maintaining a neat yard. “This time of the year is pretty good for pruning roses and prepare garden beds for the blooms of the spring, so that means a lot of fertiliser and mulching,” she says.

Cats reach 40,000, set target of 46,000 THE CATS have set a lofty target of 46,000 members in the next three years after this week breaking the 40,000 mark for the first time. Geelong signed up its 40,001st member last Friday to achieve its membership goal for 2010. Club acting chief executive officer Rob Threlfall was thrilled. “The first thing (to say) is obvious and that is to say thank you to all of our supporters that are on board as members,” Threlfall said. “Without our supporters and members the club would not exist. When you consid-

er that as recently as 2004 we had just over 25,000 members, this increase has been an incredible achievement. “Our team has been outstanding over the past four years and the on-field success we have enjoyed has been a catalyst to encourage our supporters to join up. We have also seen our facilities improve dramatically with two redevelopments at Skilled Stadium over that period that has also allowed members to watch games in greater comfort.” Threlfall said the Cats had now set their target on further membership records. “We expect to see continued growth in
membership and our goal is to reach at least 46,000 by 2013,” he said. “There has never been a better time to be a member and we encourage all supporters that can sign up to do so.” Threlfall encouraged fans considering becoming members to sign off before the 2010 cut-off date next Wednesday. “There are still seats available to members for the remaining home-and-away games and (remember) that only members will have access to grand final seats by way of a ballot if we are fortunate to make it again,” he said.

GEELONG Supercats could be forgiven for glancing across court and thinking they saw a mirror image looking right back. The team is different but the similarities are eerie. With Knox and the Supercats, both sides hold down third spot on their respective conference ladders. Both are also two wins behind nearest rivals with a game in hand, eyeing off the semi-final double chance. But that’s where it ends. Geelong has been better record on the road – one win better – than playing on the Arena. Not Knox. Where the Raiders play makes a difference, comparing a 7-3 home record to 3-5 away. Knox also hasn’t won at the Arena for five years. The Raiders’ poor record flows on to league leading scorer, CJ Massingale. The star 190cm guard struggles against the Supercats’ defence, averaging a below-par 16 points on Geelong’s home court. The clash of two of the competition’s traditional heavyweights will start at – the earlier time – 7pm on Friday night.
‘Advertising in the Independent really works’ ‘At first I was a little sceptical when our training organisation started advertising in the Independent and Geelong Jobs. But the response was really good and the advertising is great value for money. Now we don’t advertise anywhere else because we get enough business from the Independent and Geelong Jobs.’

sport Joeys set to climb over Saints ST JOSEPHS gets the chance to climb back into Geelong Football League’s top five this weekend when it plays St Albans at St Albans Reserve. Joeys have been much maligned this year and making the finals looked very remote only a few weeks ago but to its credit it has managed to get its year back on track. Having Peter Street back in the side helps and it looks as though Paul and Dale Carson have finally settled into the style of their teammate’s play. Beating St Albans will be no easy task because the Super Saints are developing well for coach Peter Davenport who has instilled his never-say-die attitude into the team. Adam Marsland, Mark Dragicevic, Tye Holland and Pat Tucker are having good seasons and the side has already won more games than expected. Joeys won’t take this game lightly, as Grovedale has already taught it what can happen when you underestimate an opponent. Expect Joeys to win.

BFL Poor old Ocean Grove can’t take a trick. Just when it closes to within one game of the top five, the fixture throws it up against top-of-the-ladder Geelong Amateurs at Queen’s Park. Last week everything went right for the Grubbers when they beat Modewarre and fellow fifth-place aspirant Anglesea went down to Drysdale. Bernie Lynch, Greg Costello, Callum Jones and Travis Gavin provide a great example to the many young players in the Grubbers’ side.
Key player Jamie Dalton will be sorely missed but it’s likely that he will miss the rest of the year, so the rest of the side will have to lift. Playing Ammos on its own turf is a big ask for every team in the competition because Amateurs has proven stars all over the ground. Jason Tom is firing in the forward line and is second on the league goal-kicking ladder, while Anthony Fagan, Trevor Edwards and Blair Kelly are giving him plenty of opportunities. Barwon Heads proved a few weeks ago that Ammos can be beaten and the Grubbers will be looking to exploit the same weaknesses but the Amateur’s all-round strength should see it take the points. Other selections: ANGLESEA v Portarlington, DRYSDALE v Modewarre, Newcomb v TORQUAY, Barwon Heads v QUEENSCLIFF.
the second-placed Tigers. The Centurions have not been beaten this year and are two games and a healthy percentage clear of the rest. Travis Johns, Brad Bunworth, Anthony Kitchen, Nathan Lovell and Blake Pilkington are just a handful of stars that the coach David Leatch has in his line-up and he is utilising them perfectly. Big, strong and mobile are the key attributes of the sid, with many predicting a premiership and a champion’s flag at Galvin Park by the end of the year. Bannockburn is also having a good year for first year co-coaches Ron Pilgrim and Ross Dillon. Last week the Tigers had an unexpected loss to North Geelong and will be champing at the bit to prove that they too have a chance of taking this year’s flag. Aaron Eddy, Rohan Pidhaini, Duane Broom and Brad Furtulla will have to be in thick of the action if the Tigers are to have any chance because Werribee looks too good. Other selections: Corio v INVERLEIGH, EAST Werribee Centrals’ domination of Geelong and GEELONG v Geelong West, BELL POST HILL v District Football League comes under threat this Anakie, Belmont Lions v Winchelsea, Thomson v weekend when it travels to Bannockburn to take on NORTH GEELONG.

Snapper anglers hit the traditional big time amid the chill of winter On the bite BRIAN LONG CONDITIONS in the past week returned mixed results in both salt and freshwater. Winter’s traditional big snapper catches have resumed, although most of the best results have been in the cold hours after dark. Jacob Knowles landed his bag limit catch from the inner-harbour twice during the week on pilchards while fishing close to Rippleside Jetty. Dan Fernley also had success, landing a quality snapper of 8.2kg on the Stingaree Bay spoilgrounds on Monday night along with another fish of 3kg. Boat anglers who worked between Cunningham Pier and the ruins of the Yarra Street Pier caught fish mostly between 900g and 3kg. This area has also produced salmon, some pushing 2kg, on bait and soft plastics. Steve Dmytrenko had success with soft plastics along the Geelong waterfront, taking small snapper, salmon and bream. Steve managed a nice snapper of around 2kg fishing on first light this week.
Cold front: John Uwland with a winter snapper from Corio Bay’s outer harbour.
Blue bag: Steve Reed with tuna from Port Fairy. Fisherman’s Pier produced a couple of quality snapper to bait anglers, the best nearly 3kg. This area will be worth fishing early this weekend for a few hours on the high tide running off despite the cold. St Helens rewarded a couple of hardy anglers with nice snapper. Pilchard and squid are are working here, with first light the most productive time. Paul Barnett fished the North Shore rocks where salmon were thick, taking his soft plastics as soon as the lure hit the water. Paul also caught a nice snapper of 1.2kg while using Gulp three-
inch minnows in the Mouldy Cheese colour. Peter Noble fished a few hundred metres off Bird Rock to find whiting on the boil. Peter landed his bag limit in just two hours, with all fish between 30cm and 33cm. Even anglers fishing the outerharbour found snapper. John Uwland landed a cracker of a fish off Clifton Springs close to the channel on pilchard early in the morning. Henry Hyland also boated a nice snapper of 4.5kg along with a few small fish while anchored up close to Point Wilson Spit. Squid are generally still in
good numbers all the way along the south shore, with ever more anglers walking the shore casting jigs over the shallow grass beds for top results, particularly between the Clifton Springs and Hermsley. Swan Bay again produced small gummy shark from the jetty after dark. Soft plastics anglers fishing the bay also caught silver trevally to 900g on worm-pattern lures. Queenscliff cut was the best area for trevally, particularly on Turtleback worms on a 3.5g jig heads. Two hours either side of high tide has been best, while bait anglers need to fish close to the
time of slack water with pilchard fillets and berley. Salmon have appeared in the Barwon River but well upstream. By all reports, the best numbers have been caught between Lake Connewarre and the break but a canoe or very small boat is required to access this area. Large surf again frustrated surf anglers in the past week, with sandy, discoloured water in close limiting caputres. When the water cleared salmon were in good numbers at all the major beaches, so anglers should keep an eye on this fishery in coming weeks.
In freshwater, the western district lakes have been clearly the best option. Lake Purrumbete produced fish for both bait and lure anglers. Trolling with Tassie Devils, especially in the gold wing colours, produced good results on both brown and rainbow trout. Mudeye fished close in to the weed beds was ideal, producing browns close to 3kg. Lake Bullen Merri was the best bet for land-based anglers using Powerbait fished on a running rig just close to shore. Trolling with Tassie Devils was also working well, with the rainbow trout close to 2kg at present. Tuna continued running anywhere from Apollo Bay to Portland, with Port Fairy a clear favorite. Fish to well over 10kg were again caught. This fishery should continue for another month or so if the conditions allow. Most fish are between 10kg and 30kg, which is ideal for most anglers to catch for the table. Steve Reed and mates Trent Leen and Travis Tournier have been typical of anglers fishing Port Fairy, loading up all the light spin rods on their last outing as they moved into 180m of water. A pass over the same grounds produced a similar result a short time later.

‘Call of duty’ against Saints BY ANDREW MATHIESON SEEMINGLY in cruise mode for the first half of the year, Cats coach Mark Thompson has predicted Geelong will have to “go beyond the call of duty” in Friday night’s grand final re-match. To prove the Cats are serious, Thompson has floated the idea of bringing back champion full-back Matthew Scarlett to curb the influence of St Kilda pocket dynamo Stephen Milne. Scarlett, who has overcome a hamstring strain that kept him sidelined for three weeks, would hold a whopping 14cm height advantage over 178cm Milne. Geelong has won its past seven games after early-season shock losses to Fremantle and Carlton. But Thompson expected the second-placed Saints to provide the biggest threat yet this season. “I don’t think it really matters who you play out of the top teams,” he said. “If you don’t bring your top team to the ground ready to play, it’s going to be awfully difficult. “That’s just the state of play. It’s a fantastic competition, it’s really healthy but we’re going have to prepare well and be prepared to go beyond the call of duty to beat the Saints.” That would call on the defending AFL premier breaking St Kilda’s much-vaunted tackling pressure and zone defence, which led to a record 118 tackles in last year’s premiership decider. “Players from both teams will be gearing themselves up for the same type of performances, contests and (to) be prepared to sort of go that extra yard knowing that’s what’s needed to get them over the line,” Thompson said.

Hawkins return risk DEJECTED Tom Hawkins could make a shock AFL return as early as next week. Doctors had diagnosed the young Cat forward with a serious hot spot injury earlier this month and coach Mark Thompson said they offered up to eight weeks to rest a sore foot. But Hawkins is showing little side affects after less than three sidelined. “Tom is coming on really well and we expect him to play the next week or the week after,” Thompson said. Geelong medicos were surprised Hawkins has returned to fitness so quickly, fearing he could be out for several months this year. Thompson told the Independent a fortnight ago that Hawkins “could play” immediately after the prognosis but at high risk of further injury. “They have just decided through all these specialists and
through Tom making a decision with his friends and family that he’s going to play in probably one to two weeks.” The club was prepared to take a conservative approach after former defender Matthew Egan’s unsuccessful battle to recover from a fractured navicular injury. Thompson said Hawkins’s decision was based on the “best available information”. “All we did was just lay out the cards on the table, the facts, and let him make the decision,” he said. “We don’t know if it’s a new injury or an old injury, if it’s been there for two weeks or ten week, we’re not really sure.” Injury-plagued ruckman Brad Ottens is also a chance to resume next week in the VFL. “He’s coming along really well, running on the ground and everything else, so we’re happy with his progress,” Thompson said.
The football world has been forced to wait 272 days for Geelong and St Kilda to clash at the MCG again. Thompson said the glory behind the grand final win would not rate a mention inside the dressing rooms. Thompson rated Josh Hunt a “good chance” to line-up on Milne but, with superstar Nick Riewoldt still recuperating from hamstring surgery, the Cats coach refused to mark a line through Scarlett’s name. It could be just a further challenge for the controversial Saint after a television report earlier this
week revealed threats from inside Victoria Police scrapped an investigation into rape claims against Milne and teammate Leigh Montagna in 2004. Thompson refused to be drawn into the latest accusations from a former police detective, instead pointing to his defenders to cover Milne on the field. “We probably play our defenders on where we want to play them rather than a match-up basis,” he said. “Scarlett will probably try and stay deep, Josh plays deep and if Milne’s deep, Josh or Scarlett will go on him.” 424749-TB25-10
