THE SKY’S THE LIMIT
BY LIZ ROGERS
I wonder if any of you can remember Mornington Peninsula Magazine running a story in 2014
about a ripper of a tracking device called skynanny that was being developed by local Mornington resident Jason Petch? Well, after much refining and redesigning, Jason and his team have come full circle and the result is an even more effective all Australian made and designed product that does exactly what it says it will. Jason explains: “We’ve been working hard over the last couple of years to improve our skynanny tracking device. We originally used a combination of GPS, GSM/3G and Bluetooth technology to link with the skynanny app which could be downloaded for free from any iPhone or android smartphone. We’ve now changed to a web based model to be more user friendly. skynanny can now be used on any phone, pc, laptop or tablet.” He continues. “Standard GPS tracking devices don’t work indoors. skynanny does. Standard tracking devices aren’t 100% waterproof. skynanny is. Standard tracking devices don’t offer you the education based complete customer service that we do either. This means we can answer your questions whenever you need to ask them. You won’t get that from an offshore producer.” Jason originally started developing skynanny after his young daughter went missing at Mother’s Beach, but
the device is also ideal for tracking elderly loved ones, the disabled and even pets. Jason is also in talks with one of Australia’s leading automobile manufacturers about building the technology into cars as a way of tracking the vehicle’s location similar to much more expensive fleet tracking systems. “We offer our customers real flexibility”, he continues. skynanny can track your lost child, has wireless charging, arrow and distance functions, gives you fivesecond updates and has an “out of bounds” notification system which prevents your child from going missing in the first place. It can be kept in a small pocket that can be buttoned or sewn inside any article of clothing, plus its GPS is five times stronger than the standard phone GPS. They also offer a ‘try before you buy’ service. “Our customers have 14 days to test skynanny and can return it if they don’t believe it is the product for them,” Jason says. You can buy the device outright for $299 or choose a no upfront cost option and set up a 12-month subscription at $30 per month. The new and improved skynanny works globally. It was the Victorian i-Award merit recipient in 2015 and there have been over 2000 sold world-wide since its launch in February 2016. Derryn Hinch has been skynanny’s ambassador from the beginning. The device doesn’t replace good parenting – but it can give you peace of mind. Visit www.skynanny.net or call 1300SKYNANNY for more information

Design competition unearths local talent A 21-year-old Hastings woman has won the ‘Milk Bar Label Launch’ - a design competition hatched by the team at Mornington’s Milk Bar Clothing in search of an aspiring local creative. Whitney McHenry was named the winner at an awards night on June 23. The young designer’s label is called Tanjee (the letters of her full name jumbled up), it’s less than a year since she launched it and her first three designs are killing it on Instagram. “I did fashion school for a year then decided to jump right in,” she explains. “My designs are easy, feminine and very versatile.” Whitney also sells Tanjee at the Emu Plains Market and has her eye on Main Street Mornington Market this Summer. The Milk Bar Label Launch is a collaboration between Milk Bar Clothing, Cam Morgan and Chris Davis from local label Nunday, Voyager Screen Printing Seaford, Mornington Peninsula Shire Council and the Mornington Chamber of Commerce. The intent - to kick start an unknown local designer into a career in the fashion industry. Milk Bar Clothing’s Alana Wilkinson explains: “We were looking for a person who really wanted a career in the industry. We have so many people interested in getting their label off the ground and sold in here.” Whitney has won $2000 worth of start-up stock to be sold in store at Milk Bar Clothing; a collaboration with the boys from Nunday to be cross promoted and sold in store and online; and ongoing mentoring.

All-out war between pirates and rights holders Unfortunately, Foxtel is but a luxury for some, as distant and unobtainable as the Iron Throne. However, with some basic technical know-how, and a quick slide of the hand across the key board, Australians can obtain the latest instalment for free. But while the benefits of such an act are great, the hidden dangers may not reveal themselves for some time (much like a certain pact between Robb Stark and Walder Frey).
It’s Monday night. Thirst for the next instalment of Game of Thrones has been steadily increasing throughout the afternoon. Come nightfall, friends and family all over the Kingdom of Australia pack tightly around Foxtel set top boxes, anxiously awaiting this week’s gruesome twist.
Although many see it as harmless, for others, torrenting (a form of illegal peer-topeer downloading) is seen as preventing the media and entertainment sector from collecting the revenue necessary to keep the industry alive and kicking. So what is driving Australians to break the law? Weren’t most Australians taught the difference between right and wrong, or has the insidious nature of House Lannister infected us all? The reason torrenting is on the rise boils down to a few things. Firstly to blame is the accessibility of the content and the role that
social media plays in urging us to stay up-todate and relevant. In a globalised world, it can be truly difficult to see posts from your overseas friends bemoaning the death of Lord Ficklefish the Grey, or the fall of House Gingerbread, and have absolutely no idea what they are talking about. Further, social media platforms just can’t keep a lid on it! Stories are important to people, and as the hysteria in the lead-up to release of new episodes begins on social media platforms, the anxiety about breaking the law is replaced with the anxiety of having an important plot point revealed by an inconsiderate Facebook friend. It’s also difficult for the average viewer to conceptualise the damage, if any, piracy is doing to the industry (and a proper survey of all the various opinions on this is beyond the scope of this article). But it must appear to consumers that someone is making money – a lot of money – off this and other shows, or else why would they keep making them? Why else would they release GOT branded versions of every product imaginable, from King Joffrey antacid tablets
to Iron Bank of Bravos savings accounts to Hodor doorstops? (This last one is not a joke – look it up). What’s certainly true though is that the industry is desperate to turn the situation around. With no recourse to trial-bycombat under Australian law, several large players have launched separate Federal Court actions which seek to block websites, including The Pirate Bay and SolarMovie, from facilitating the piracy of copyright protected content. Notwithstanding the outcomes of these actions, it seems that what is required to properly stop piracy in its tracks is either a complete shift in public perception or a complete shift in the way rights holders licence and distribute their content. But either of these is about as simple as claiming the Iron Throne – and keeping it.

Woodleigh School’s new Homesteads development has won the 2016 Learning Environments Australasia Award for best new construction/major facility. Principal Jonathan Walter said the award was an “outstanding result” for the school, especially considering the standard of competition within Australia and beyond. “Our Homesteads provide a home away from home for students at school,” Mr Walter said. “They blend social learning spaces with open-planned, flexible

teaching spaces, and connect beautifully with our natural environment. “This is an exceptional project, chiefly because the design team’s deep understanding of the school’s educational philosophy is manifest in every aspect of the Woodleigh Homesteads design. Woodleigh’s commitment to environmental education is visibly embedded in the environmental function of the buildings.” Mr Walter said the Woodleigh Homesteads were now part of a major research collaboration called Innovative Learning Environments and Teacher
Change, an Australian Research Council Linkage project valued at more than $1 million that will run over the next four years and will investigate the impact of new learning spaces within schools. “We believe that great education is more than just an excellent academic preparation for the future. A great education equips a student with life skills – resilience and independence. It provides an understanding of service, the building of a strong moral and ethical base, and the desire to make a contribution to the broader community. It’s the ability to work hard and give your best effort to everything that you do.”

“Anything worthwhile takes hard work”, she says. “Students need to feel safe to take risks, to embrace challenge and to learn that mistakes are an inevitable part of life that help us to grow and learn”. Kellie Larkins is a Year 11 student and recipient of the Alice Sloan Memorial Scholarship. She says, “Being awarded a scholarship to attend Toorak College, I can now see how many opportunities there are in the world for girls. Toorak has really pushed me to achieve my best and accept nothing less. The scholarship has really shown me how important education is and what a difference you can make in the world when you have a great education.” “Moving from a co-ed school to an all-girls’ school was very scary, however it has been the best decision of my
life. The girls were so welcoming and always encourage me to do my best. They are like a second family to me. For me, some of the benefits of going to an all-girls’ school are that I am able to realise the potential I have as a young woman, and I now understand that women can most certainly become leaders and not just followers”. “If you are considering applying for a scholarship at Toorak College I would tell you to do it; you have nothing to lose and everything to gain. It will be one of the best decisions you have ever made, and nothing but good opportunities will come from it”, encourages Kellie. If your daughter is going into Year 10 in 2017, she is a good ‘all rounder’ who would thrive in a school like Toorak College then look closely at The Alice Sloan Memorial Full Scholarship. Visit www.toorakcollege.vic. edu.au to apply now, or register your interest for 2018 Scholarships. Attend the Open Morning on August 3, 9am to 11am, or phone 9788 7234 to book your tour.

Inside the former Adams Peninsula Garden Supplies shed on the Nepean Hwy in Mornington, George Makool and his team are working full throttle on plans for a massive food and produce destination called Oasis Mornington. This is the family behind the successful Oasis Bakery in Murrumbeena and they want to bring their proven mix of all things food and produce to the 1.6 hectare former garden centre site. “It’s going to be three times the size of Oasis Murrumbeena,” George explains. “This will be a landmark site in Mornington.” It will be a venue for foodies, families and, quite frankly, anyone who enjoys good produce. And the peninsula’s reputation for great produce and our community’s love of it, is exactly why George decided to buy the site and set up here. “Mornington is the gateway to the peninsula and has a community that naturally loves good produce, wine, food and cheese. We think it will be the perfect location,” he says. For now, a temporary (and rather funky) Pop Up Oasis, complete with faux grass and a mini commercial kitchen inside a shipping container, has been set up in the old Adams shed while plans for the major development are with council. Oasis Mornington plans include a
restaurant, cafe, food market, function room, gardens and, yes, a petting zoo. George is hiring locals, and plenty of them. He even envisages he will need a full-time gardener to look after the gardens and produce he intends to grow onsite. Executive chef Colin Wilson explains the idea behind the petting zoo: “It’s intended to be an experience for the kids. This is about getting everyone involved, being kid and family friendly.” Award winning architects Jackson Clements Burrows are designing the complex alongside Sydney-based design firm Luchetti Krelle. Oasis Pop Up caters for about 45 people and is open 7.30am - 3pm serving a full breakfast menu, lunch items and some of Oasis Murrumbeena’s most popular pastries and cakes. It’s at 988 Nepean Highway, Mornington (between the Hyundai and Kia car dealerships).

Forget the man cave, say hello to the ‘She Shed’. Women around the world are closing their doors on discarded cricket bats, lift-up toilet seats and couches covered in crumbs, and instead finding inspiration in private nooks affectionately known as ‘She Sheds’. It’s with this phenomenon in mind that Steph, Rachael, Ruby and Karen from Affirm Press have scoured the nation and published a delightful little book filled with stories and gorgeous photos of Aussie ‘She Sheds’. It’s called ‘She Sheds – A Treasure Trove of Women’s Creative Spaces’, it’s 180 pages and it retails for $29.99. It is, they explain, a celebration of “the creativity these
beautiful spaces inspire, the memories they preserve, the artistry they exhibit and the women who build them”. There’s ‘A Writer’s Taravan’ – an old blue caravan transformed into a retreat for writing and editing; ‘The Greenhouse’ – an old greenhouse remodeled by a professional photographer into a stunning space for client photo shoots; ‘Steph’s Shed’ – a cubby house reinvented as a creative space, and much, much more. Buy it online at www.affirmpress.com.au • Mornington Peninsula Magazine has five copies of ‘She Shed’ to give away this month.

Everything we love about the peninsula, fresh every month
Life is pretty sweet right now for Joel Norford. The “farm boy from Moorooduc” and owner of the iconic Garden of Quasimodo has won over Boost Juice founder Janine Allis with his revolutionary vertical dry stack walling system PENTABLOCK (www. pentablock.com.au). This mile-a-minute entrepreneur, aged 35, triumphed on episode 12 of Australian reality competition television series ‘Shark Tank’, which aired June 30 on Channel 10. The show sees aspiring entrepreneur contestants make business pitches to a panel of ‘shark’ investors, including Allis. The self-made multi-millionaire ‘sharks’ then decide if they want
to invest their own money to help market and mentor the contestant. Joel nailed his pitch (he’s got the gift of the gab), received two offers and took the one from Allis which amounts to a $350,000 business investment. “It (‘Shark Tank’) all happened very quickly,” he said. “I was sitting on the couch watching TV and an add came up – I’d never seen it before – about applying for ‘Shark Tank’. I had my ipad, I picked it up and applied.” A week later came the email: “We love it, come and pitch”. The timing is perfect for Joel, with his patented PENTABLOCK retailing around the country and sparking interest further afield. “I’ve got interest from all over the
world,” he says, rattling off a string of countries including Sweden, the US and the Middle East. “All from a farm boy from Moorooduc!” Joel still owns Garden of Quasimodo and his award winning landscape and construction business QScape, despite putting them up for sale earlier this year to focus on PENTABLOCK. Filming of Joel’s ‘Shark Tank’ episode took place in Sydney late last year and he has been biding his time until now for it to air. With that now done, it’s a fair bet this “farm boy” and his bright idea are about to soar. (PENTABLOCK is on display at Garden of Quasimodo and Joel is building a new major display centre and head office in Wells Rd, Chelsea Heights).

Ever wonder what it would be like to spend hours treading water while giant waves froth and curl and dump around you? What about swimming and rolling while holding a camera (or two) and waiting calmly for the one moment when surfer, board and wave come together in perfect harmony? Probably not, but for 25-year-old Mornington Peninsula surf photographer Hayden O’Neill, it’s all in a day’s work. He just loves to take water shots and has never imagined himself as a nine to fiver. He’s never had a plan b either. “I started taking photos with disposable cameras when I was 16. My mates and I have always surfed so it made sense to take surf photos. Once I started I couldn’t stop. It’s a bit scary sometimes. You’ve got to keep yourself composed while battling the rip, but I’m a strong swimmer and the camera floats.” He laughs. The media coverage of shark attacks wouldn’t do much for confidence either I suggest. “You’ve got to remember that the sharks were there first and respect that. It’s part of the gig.” The image of the surfer who travels the world in search of the magic wave holds true to this

talented photographer who loves jumping on a plane to find the shot that satisfies his creative urge. He’s spent time as a surf photographer at a resort in Micronesia and in Fiji. He’s off to Japan at the end of July and then onto Bali for four months after that. “I remember taking photos at P-Pass (Palikir Pass in Micronesia). The waves were eight to 10 foot. It takes a while to get used to that kind of swell. Teahupo’o in Tahiti is also on my list.” Hayden had his first solo ‘Lost Paradise Exhibition’ in 2012 and was part of a group showing at Black Spot Gallery in Mornington in June. He’s also published a limited edition, 72-page coffee table book entitled Cinema Paradiso which chronicles his five-year cinematic voyage across the globe. Log onto www.haydenoneill.com.au to grab yourself a copy. “The rest of the year will be about travelling and taking photos. I’m also in the process of developing a bit of a brand.” (Watch this space.) “I always look forward to summer here though and spending time at Gunnamatta or at the Portsea Pub!” Life’s tough hey Hayden? “My parents always encouraged me to follow the dream. That’s what I’m doing”. The dream, dear reader, is real.

#thebathswillbeback - it’s the hashtag being used by the team at The Baths Sorrento as the rebuild takes shape on the Sorrento foreshore. The stunning beachfront restaurant and wedding venue is on track to be rebuilt in October and wedding bookings are being taken for 2017. October marks 12 months since The Baths Sorrento was destroyed by fire. The new structure, photographed in June, is well and truly taking shape at the foot of the Sorrento Jetty. The rebuild and re-opening are highly anticipated events – a recent Facebook photograph showing the roof, weatherboard exterior and new windows in place attracted more than 500 likes within a few hours.
A large crane hauled timbers into place for a vergola (an opening and closing louvre roof system) on May 31. Owners James Gibson and Helene Johnson are aiming to have the works completed in October and they have made this labour of love a local one. “We are pretty much using all local trades and we’re buying locally where we can,” Ms Johnson said. The Baths Sorrento is named after the Sorrento Sea Baths that were on the site in the late 1800s and early 1900s. For a venue and a team that have helped launch and celebrate so many life stories and milestones, it’s now their turn for a fresh start. The Baths Sorrento is taking wedding bookings for 2017: phone 5984 1500 or email weddings@thebaths.com.au For regular updates visit www.facebook.com/ bathssorrento

Giacomo Manzoni and Marco Tessari walk into The Epicurian Red Hill for lunch and heads immediately turn. It’s an unusual sight - two tall Italians, each holding what appears to be large lumps of dead wood. It turns out this is the modus operandi for the visiting vine pruning consultants (colloquially known as ‘pruning guys’), here by invitation to share their company Simonit&Sirch’s vine pruning method with Australian vignerons. The lumps of wood are actually sections of vine that they use to demonstrate the consequences of what they call ‘big cuts’ and to explain Simonit&Sirch’s sought-after sap respecting techniques. It’s a complex business, so complex in fact that Simonit&Sirch has published a pruning vine manual (the first one of its kind in the world), and Giacomo, Marco and their colleagues consult for 130 companies around the world, including some of the biggest names in the business. The Simonit&Sirch team also teach their techniques as part of the world’s first Master’s Degree in Grapevine Pruning, in Bordeaux.
A WEEK OF LUXURY, REST AND RELAXATION
Their clients include the likes of Gaja and Ceretto - two of Italy’s outstanding and most influential wine producers, located in in Piedmont; Ornellaia in Tuscany; Chateau Latour in Bordeaux; Chateau d’YQuem in the Sauternes region; Louis Roederer and many more. “The vine moves in space like a creeper and the way it moves in space is called apical dominance,” Giacomo explains. “To keep the vine within a certain space, the man prunes.” These “big cuts” cause the vine to create desiccation cones (dead wood) and can lead to trunk disease. “Trunk disease is probably one of the biggest problems in viticulture,” Giacomo says. Simonit&Sirch’s modern cutting technique works on the assumption that the plant cannot enjoy a long life if it keeps being wounded and then healed. “It increases the percentage of living and healthy wood and a healthy vine has more uniformity, more balance and better reactions to stress and disease,” Giacomo and Marco explain. The pair have extended their stay and will be on the Mornington Peninsula until at least mid July. More: www.simonitesirch.com

Mornington Peninsula winter family fun Winter on the peninsula. The wind off the bay is icy to the bone and shades of stormy grey set in where we once basked in sunshine. Having lived in England for a few years I have learnt to embrace winter by rugging up and getting out and about with family and friends. Here are my top four suggestions for family fun this winter on the Mornington Peninsula: 1. Peninsula Hot Springs Winter is my favourite time to visit the Hot Springs with my family. The water is so warm and relaxing and the café is great for lunch. If you can, I strongly recommend treating yourself and booking in a spa treatment. 2. Searoad Ferries The bay may be too cold to swim in, but heading out on Searoad Ferries is a great family day out. There is an on-board playground and café, plus you get amazing views of

the peninsula coastline and often you can spot dolphins swimming alongside. 3. T he Enchanted Gardens Rug the kids up and get active! The high ropes courses provide challenges for all abilities and the tube slide is so much fun. There is also the more relaxing option of exploring the mazes. 4. PARC (Peninsula Aquatic Recreation Centre) This is a great place to defrost and have fun. It’s 30 degrees inside and heaps of water-based fun, including two huge indoor waterslides and a water play centre to keep kids entertained and happy. Before we know it Spring will be here and we will be back on our beautiful beaches. Stay warm.

Free to Shine is a vibrant human rights organisation that gives girls in countries where sex trafficking is prevalent the possibility and probability of living free and fulfilling lives. The organisation was founded in 2010 by CEO Nicky Mih and has been giving girls in Cambodia (who would otherwise be targeted by sex traffickers) uniforms, bikes, bags full of books and pens in a quest to protect, educate and emancipate. The organisation has managed to raise $675, 513, enrol 700 girls across 44 villages in the Free to Shine program, provide 4000 library books, 313 water filters and build 10 houses!

OVERHAUL STARTS ON FRANKSTON’S HEART When work begins this month on upgrading Young St, it will signal the beginning of a massive project designed to transform the heart of Frankston. The $63 million revitalisation of the Frankston station precinct will unfold over the next three years and will, the State Government says, “transform the precinct into a safer, more modern place of business and activity and grow investment towards the longterm vision of a revitalised Frankston city centre”. It will include rebuilding the station itself, consolidating buses on Young St and upgrading the subway. Stage one of the project is the $13 million Young St upgrade, which is expected to be completed by next March and will include a high-quality pedestrian streetscape, better carparking access and management, new plazas and improved safety measures. Frankston Mayor James Dooley said the “positive long-term economic, environmental and social benefits” of the precinct transformation went “right to the core” of
( 32
the council’s Frankston Metropolitan Activity Centre Structure Plan. “This key project has been at the top of the Frankston community’s priority list for many years, with the development of Young St being an exciting first step towards changing the face of Frankston,” Cr Dooley said. “Young St is a very important gateway in our city centre, and we look forward to it being transformed into a hub for our community members and visitors to meet, shop and enjoy spending leisure time in.” As part of a broad plan to realise the longknown potential of Frankston, the Young St upgrade will support other imminent private sector developments, including the expansion of Chisholm TAFE and the station rebuild. These major projects will boost the local economy and increase the liveability of the city centre through more housing, education and employment options. “Residential apartments will bring benefits to the city, including an increase in safety in the Frankston centre with the space activated 24 hours a day, seven days a week,” Cr Dooley said.

Chris Farmer had been making his own beer for several years when he and a mate had the discussion that every home brewer eventually has: “What if we put some money together and gave this an actual crack.” Two years later, Chris’s Seaford-based Mr.Banks Brewing Co. has just produced and distributed its first batch, opting for cans and kegs rather than glass. Why? For a start it’s better for the beer, says Chris, because no light or oxygen – “The two killers of beer”- can enter a can. Canned beer also has a better shelf life, chills more quickly, is easier to ship … “and we think cans are way cooler”.

Chris, 30, was working 60 hours a week in a job he “didn’t have the slightest interest in” when he decided to have “an actual crack” at brewing. “I had a partner early on but things changed. Now I do pretty much the lot. My wife, Penny, is an accountant so she helps out on the tax side and on brewing/packaging days, and my old man helps out when and where he can, which is great. So at the moment it’s a family thing. “We’ve had a lot of help along the way, especially from other local breweries who were happy to share information and insights. All in all I would say we are joining what would have to be the most supportive and helpful community - the craft beer family - and we couldn’t be more excited about it. “Everyone seems to be enjoying our first beer (Pier Side Pale Ale) and hopefully we can continue in that stead, focusing on our own backyard and then slowly venturing towards the city to get our beer in people’s hands.” That should be easier when a canning machine arrives from Canada this month. The initial batch of beer was distributed in kegs, but by early to mid-August Chris hopes to have the first cans on the shelves. “I love a lot of styles of beer so when I found a beer I liked, I would try to make one my way with my own twist. I use friends and family to test different batches on to get second and third opinions, but in the end, unless I like it, it’s not going to be brewed again. “In saying that we do still have to make beers others are going to enjoy. If we don’t we won’t be around very long.” The brewery’s name, by the way, comes from Chris’s dog, Banks, who was named after a character in the film The Mighty Ducks. “We really like the name Banks, so we decided to throw a ‘Mr’ on the front to give it a little more personality.” To try a Pier Side, visit Chris’s website and go to the Find Beer section.

It’s late May, just shy of winter and Tilly Riches from Shoreham is decorating. Her much loved weatherboard home is due to be renovated and the family have decided to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new with an event unlike anything they have had before. Tilly has booked local musician Jack the Fox to support Melbourne crew The Teskey Brothers through the Parlour online booking platform to perform at her home, and the buzz is palpable. There are hay bales, lanterns, tea lights and the fire pit in the yard is ready to roar, egg and bacon rolls are set for brekkie the next morning (for those who will be camping overnight) and her full-time musician partner Justin Lewis (from Jack the Fox) has set up the acoustics. Ready, set, go. Fast forward to June and I ask Tilly and the founder of Parlour Matt Walters what’s the verdict on all this in-house musician ship. Is it the way of the future and if so, how successful can gigging really be inside someone’s home and not in a traditional pub or club setting? (You do realise that Aussie icons Crowded House decided to play acoustic sets for industry insiders and small crowds at ethnic restaurants and in record stores to get noticed instead of doing large and expensive tours in the 80s?) Accomplished singer/songwriter Matt explains. “I realised there was a gap in the Aussie music industry and decided to look for a new music model. Many musicians are tired of playing in the traditional forums and deserve to be paid like all working artists. We ensure each artist receives a minimum of $300 per gig while the average is $550 for a 45-60 minute session. Gigs are safe and the audience are there to listen. There are often no PAs so the music sounds raw and really beautiful. It’s a win/ win situation for artists and hosts and has been well received Australia wide.” Tilly continues. “We had a cap of 70 people and sold 50 tickets (of which the artists get 90%). We supplied food but you can ask people to BYO drinks and bring a plate. It’s flexible and lots of fun. I’d definitely do it again.” “There are no bouncers or excessive drink prices either”, says Matt “and all you have to do is log on to our website, sign up, fill in a form and find a musician in your area. Once they accept, you get your tickets and start preparing for your gig. It’s that easy. Plus you get to hang out with the musicians after they’ve finished playing.” “And the party can go on for as long as you like”, says Tilly. To book your next in-house Parlour gig just log onto www.parlourgigs.com and get the ball rolling. Sounds like a sweet deal.

Manyung Gallery Mt Eliza, one of Victoria’s better-known art spaces, has just moved from the historic castle on Nepean Highway to a contemporary space at 60 Mount Eliza Way in Mt Eliza Village. The Tuscan-inspired castle was a great setting for the gallery, but directors David and Sharyn Wemyss-Smith are keen to create a brighter, fresher space that’s inviting to both artists and visitors. The Manyung Gallery Group has built a reputation as one of Melbourne’s largest and longest running contemporary art organisations with galleries in Mt Eliza, Sorrento, and Malvern. The new boutique gallery will stock the same artists and artwork Manyung is known for, as well as introducing new contemporary painters and sculptors. To support the new gallery, Manyung has
developed an art warehouse in Progress St, Mornington, where larger artworks will be housed and displayed. “We’ve found more and more that people want a hero piece in their home accompanied by smaller complementary artworks. This space allows us to showcase artwork across a range of scales,” Sharyn says. Manyung has experienced significant growth in the past 12 months, with the Sorrento and Malvern galleries both increasing in size. The group also has a mobile art service that delivers artwork for on-site assessment at clients’ homes and offices throughout Melbourne. “For us it’s about creating an experience for our visitors,” says Sharyn. “We aren’t selling a piece of artwork; we are providing joy and emotion through art. It’s really important that our clients are confident knowing that they can source the perfect artwork through us.”

“O, beware, my lord, of jealousy; It is the green-ey’d monster, which doth mock The meat it feeds on.” (Act 3, Scene 3) In a devastating exploration of the battle between love and jealousy, Peter Evans will direct Bell Shakespeare’s production of ‘Othello’, coming to Frankston Arts Centre on August 4, 2016. One of Shakespeare’s greatest tragedies, ‘Othello’ is a saga that probes the human capacity for petty jealousies and revenge while reveling in the sheer wickedness of malicious manipulations.
The triumphant general Othello returns from battle with the gratitude of the state and the love of Desdemona, who defies social convention and her father’s will to marry him. Jealousies around their match and Othello’s rise to prominence simmer to the surface, causing destructive rifts in a story that piles secret upon secret and betrayal upon betrayal. Othello’s ensign, Iago, harbours a deeply held resentment and Othello and Desdemona’s marriage is fatally undermined by the insinuations of a master manipulator.
Ray Chong Nee (Bell Shakespeare’s ‘The Dream’ and MTC’s ‘I Call My Brothers’) stars as Othello and Yalin Ozucelik (Bell Shakespeare’s ‘Henry IV’ and STC’s ‘Cyrano de Bergerac’) stars as Iago in one of Shakespeare’s most captivating and implosive pairings. The performance is on Thursday, August 4, 7.30pm, tickets $30-$66, bookings: theFAC.com.au or phone 9784 1060. Bell Shakespeare workshops: Tuesday, July 26, at 10am, 12noon or 2pm, free with performance tickets ($17 school price), suitable for Years 7 – 12. Bookings: 9784 1896.

WINTER WARMTH WITH MUSIC
The Winter Solstice Festival, hosted jointly over the weekend of June 17 – 19 by the Peninsula Music Society, at The Peninsula Community Theatre, and the Peninsula Chamber Musicians, at St Peter’s Church, saw eager audiences warmed by superb musical production. On the Friday evening, Karin Schaupp, guitar, and Ulberto Clerici, cello, were enchanting, coaxing from their instruments absorbing interpretations of brilliant compositions, transporting the listener from Brazil to Argentina and Spain. Sara Macliver, soprano, easily captured her audience on the Saturday night, her exquisite and richly resonant voice bringing sheer delight to Calvin Bowman’s settings of Friedrich Hölderlin. She was sensitively led by the Melbourne Chamber
Orchestra, which, having earlier triumphed with Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto, later supported Anne-Marie Johnson’s Bach. This young violinist, her technical virtuosity amazing and her touch impressive, brought the room to a tumultuous ovation. Sunday afternoon saw the truly dynamic Kristian Chong, virtuoso pianist, enthral a full house with showmanship matched to consummate skill. Wearing great talent lightly, Kristian moved passionately and sensitively through his repertoire. The icing on the cake came late Sunday afternoon, with the Peninsula Chamber Musicians showcasing Mozart, Copland and Grieg, in a powerful Festival finale of great sensitivity, played to a packed church.

In 2016 Bartercard is celebrating 25 years of trading, and the Gold Coast-born company has grown to operate the world’s largest trade exchange achieving $4.4 billion in cash savings for Australian businesses, equating to 21.9 million currency alternative transactions.
Everything we love about the peninsula, fresh every month
Saving $200,000 in business Mornington Peninsula based business owner and Bartercard member Suzanne Johnson has saved $200,000 in her hair and beauty salon, Peaches & Cream, by earning the currency alternative and using it to make business purchases in place of cash.
Bartercard Australia CEO Clive van Deventer said although Bartercard has expanded into a multi-million dollar industry which stacks up approximately $600 million in transactions each year This included a $40,000 saving on a recent salon across eight countries, its vision remains unchanged. relocation. “Barter has evolved and come a long way from the days of swapping a cow for a goat, but the basic principle of assisting small businesses to attract customers, conserve cash and increase profits in almost every industry has stayed the same,” he said.
Suzanne said she used Bartercard to offset the cash cost of the architectural plans, installing a new fitout, painting, flooring, new signage, plumbing, advertising and more, all paid using trade dollars instead of cash.
“Our vision is to make businesses successful by being the leading global business marketplace where members connect and barter.”
“Conserving $200,000 in cash has let me invest in new services like laser tattoo removal to stay competitive in the market,” she said.
Van Deventer said Bartercard is a tool to supplement the cash market, filling downtime, idle capacity and selling slow-moving stock as an additional sales and marketing distribution channel, but has turned into a viable economic alternative.
“There’s nowhere else in business where you have the ability to offset cash flow like you can with Bartercard.”
“Last year businesses saved over $130 million in cash through the indirect exchange of products and services,” he said.

“Today’s modern approach to barter steps away from a direct swap and instead uses trade dollars, recognised by the ATO as the equivalent to a dollar, transacted in a closed business network.”

Being self employed shouldn’t stop you from getting a loan There are more than 13,000 small businesses operating on the Mornington Peninsula, of which many are self-employed workers. When you look around it’s easy to see the peninsula has become a thriving small business hub. Unfortunately, when many self-employed workers look to finance their next big property or vehicle purchase, or even the expansion of their business – traditional banks can be less than helpful. Because self-employed workers don’t always fit the restrictive lending criteria of the banks, many are left disappointed and feeling as though their plans need to be put on hold. Thankfully there are lenders like Liberty that take a more free-thinking and personalised approach to assessing borrowers who are self-employed. So, if you work for yourself and need a smart solution to help you get financial, Liberty has a range of business, investment, home and car loans to help move you forward. Speak to your local Liberty Advisers, Sarah Huon and Mark Grange today.

More from our series by Jess Jones of Soar Collective. To bring some helpful tips for your business and talk about the exciting innovations of Soar Collective.
Three ways to manage your time better Most business owners struggle with time management, particularly if you’re throwing kids or a part-time job, a partner or any sort of lifestyle into the mix! Different things will work for different people. But here are three tips that could make all the difference for you:
2. EAT THAT FROG! Have you heard that expression before? It means do the tasks you despise most, first. Don’t avoid them and pop them on tomorrow’s to-do list. Just do them and get them out of the way. This then means you have the whole rest of the day to do the good stuff!
1. TIME YOURSELF There’s a rule around working for 52 minutes and taking a break for 17 minutes that has proven to be the most productive way to get through your day. So, set your timer to 52 minutes then take your 17-minute break. And make sure it’s a good one. Go for a quick walk, grab a bite to eat, read a few page of that book you’ve been meaning to read.
3. CREATE YOUR OWN TIMETABLE If you think multitasking is effective, it’s not. Let it go. Turn off all of your notifications (new mail, Facebook notifications etc). Then create a timetable and block out different parts of the day for various things i.e. social media, marketing, networking, bookkeeping. Stay focused and on track.

More than 70 Mornington Peninsula business women gathered on May 26 to have a cuppa for cancer. The Australia’s Biggest Morning Tea charity event, hosted by the Mornington Peninsula Business Women Facebook Group, raised $3387 and was held at The Green Room in Dromana. Australia’s leading female magician Cath Jamison provided entertainment and the day included manicures, massages and food by the peninsula’s finest. The event topped last year’s result of $2,374. Australia’s Biggest Morning Tea is a national event that sees friends, family and workmates share a cuppa to help raise funds for the Cancer Council. Event organisers Jo Violeta, Kerry Keys and Janelle Curry said they enjoyed connecting with other business women. “The day is as much about supporting each other in our community as it is about supporting the Cancer Council. We were thrilled to be coming together as peninsula women to support this great cause, and thank the Cancer Council for all the wonderful work it does in our community in so many ways,” Ms Violeta said.
Peninsula artists give local students a helping hand Mornington Park Primary School, Tyabb Primary school, Mount Eliza North Primary School and Dromana Secondary College are recipients of the Australian Decorative and Fine Arts Society (ADFAS) Mornington Peninsula Young Arts awards for 2016.
“It doesn’t matter if you are a successful business woman, juggling part-time work or starting out in your own business – if you are touched by cancer you need all the help you can get.”
Chairwoman Janet Glaspole announced the four schools at the ADFAS June meeting. Each school received a cheque for $850 to spend on their music or drama programs. The annual program provides an opportunity for ADFAS members to support the development of the Arts in the local community. The ADFAS holds monthly lectures and one of the highlights to come is a lecture on Friday, October 7, by English art historian Mary Alexander titled ‘David Hockney’s Mr and Mrs Clark: Fashion and Lifestyle Icons of the 60s’.

Indigenous students hit the right note with ‘Garden of Reciprocity’ Mt Eliza Secondary College students have enjoyed spectacular success with an idea for an outdoor classroom that includes a bush tucker garden and murals. What started more than 12 months ago as an idea pitched by a keen group of indigenous students to school leaders has earned the school a Mayoral Sustainability Award and exhibition space at McClelland Sculpture Park + Gallery. The young people collaborated closely in 2015 with local indigenous elders and artists to design and paint four murals, pictured, that incorporate the students’ personal clan totems (animals that were significant to their ancestors). Each panel represents a natural element supporting life: air, earth, fire and water. The four murals have been on display for the past two months on the outside wall of the McClelland Gallery to celebrate NAIDOC Week 2016. NAIDOC Week is an Australian observance that starts on the first Sunday in July. The outdoor classroom at the school is called the Garden of Reciprocity and the project was a collaboration between indigenous and non-indigenous students. A priority of the group, teacher Narelle Debenham said, was to educate their fellow students and the wider school community about sustainable resources and their ancestors’ cultures, laws, ceremonies and connection to the land. “The project highlighted a unique opportunity for our young people to work together collaboratively, while recognising the impressive history of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in this land and their unique contribution to the nation. Appreciating the natural elements we rely on for our survival unearthed the continuing responsibility we all have to care for our country.”

Beat your addiction with help from an Addictions Coach The depiction of a “hooded ice addict hiding in a dark corner” is a stereotype that addictions coach Simon Williams says is very unhelpful in recognising when someone is in the grip of addiction.
Addicted?
“If we wanted to paint a picture of the most prolific form of addiction, we could highlight a person drinking at home, or constantly with a screen in front of them, or even the classic workaholic who is hooked on the adrenalin rush of success,” says Simon. “Addiction occurs when a person is hooked on some activity or interest that they feel compelled to indulge in. Most addicts are already saying ‘no’ (but) their best intentions mostly dissipate in the cravings they constantly battle.” Simon, a qualified alcohol and drugs counsellor, certified life coach and minister, helps people from all walks of life overcome their addictions – from drugs and alcohol to gambling, work, sexual behaviour and risk-taking – with a range of courses and workshops tailored to the individual. Take the first step on your road to recovery by contacting Simon Williams today.

JAt the start of July you are likely to expend effort to maintain your status but unlikely to make much progress toward a goal as the planet Mars is stationary. As your ruling planet changes direction so do you. You need to let go of something in order to move forward.
Taurus
Leo
Money flows, your career is on track but you may need to slow down and smell the roses. Perhaps a project is requiring a concentrated effort or it could be that your energy levels need topping up by resting a while. Either way you need to withdraw and focus.
Virgo
Sagittarius It is time for some changes in the way that you invest your time and money. Joint finances need to be assessed and perhaps altered, if you share resources with anyone. Your professional life is likely to benefit from any adjustments that you make this month.
Capricorn
Communicating with neighbours, siblings and loved ones is the name of the Taurean game at the start of the month. If you want to take a short trip then now is an ideal time. You need to listen to those closest to you and then make up your mind on important decisions.
July is a good month for Virgos to make social connections to move you forward in your personal aspirations. You are likely to meet old and new contacts who give you a renewed sense of purpose. Your health and wellbeing are boosted as you experience good fortune.
Partnerships are the focus during July. It is time for you to focus on the people who help you achieve your goals. This could be a personal or business association. Responding to significant others helps you in the long-run. Selfless deeds are required.
Gemini
Libra
Aquarius Life could be busy in July as you are required
Scorpio
Pisces Your personal health and happiness continues to
It is time to use your intuition when it comes to money matters. The more that you value your own attributes the more likely you are to attract good fortune. Now is the time to make solid monetary decisions rather than indulge in unnecessary retail therapy.
Cancer Your own personal health and happiness may
be at odds with your relationship requirements. If you are in a personal or business partnership then negotiations are at hand. If not then you are likely to reconsider your status. The time has come to protect yourself.
Now you can focus on your professional aspirations. A special event can boost your public profile. Hospitality and public relations are the name of the game when it comes to being noticed in your work arena. In fact, work may be a pleasant escape from troubles at home.
You need to set your sights on the bigger picture this month. This is the best way to avoid conflict. If you get embroiled in petty disputes then you are unlikely to reach your goals. You would do better to rise above politics, aiming for the higher ground.

From clients with small weight-loss goals to those on the brink of surgical intervention, she is having success, and plenty of it. “I’ve had so many clients who’ve tried everything to lose weight but unless you deal with the subconscious mind and rewire the brain, it just doesn’t last,” she explains. Gayle taps into beliefs and thought patterns that limit her clients or hold them back from achieving their full potential.
She practices in Mt Eliza and South Yarra where she runs individual and group Hypnotic Gastric Band weight loss programs, treats anxiety related issues and runs stop smoking programs.

Breakthrough study leads to improved breast reconstructions
Clinical hypnotherapist Eileen Scott has more than eight years’ experience helping clients gain insight into their emotional and mental wellbeing.

She has already helped hundreds of people stop smoking after quitting herself through hypnosis 15 years ago, so she understands. Samantha Kelly writes: “Today is 31 days since I have quit smoking. I’m feeling so much better and saved some money and it is all thanks to Eileen”. “It’s much easier to quit than people think!” Eileen continues. Eileen also helps people with the amazing Virtual Gastric Band therapy which breaks the diet cycle once and for all. Call her to make your change today.

A breakthrough study at Peninsula Health is improving breast reconstruction outcomes. High-tech 3D modelling can now be used to improve planning for breast reconstructions, aiding aesthetic outcomes and reducing operation times, and it’s all thanks to a study at Peninsula Health led by Mornington plastic surgeon Associate Professor David Hunter-Smith. “It is a really exciting time to be working in this field,” Mr Hunter-Smith said. Until now, surgeons have had to estimate the ideal volume and shape of breast implants or soft-tissue flaps using 2D photographs taken with a CT scanner. “While we would do the best we could, there was always an element of error with estimation. Now, with the use of a new technique and 3D printing we can remove the guesswork,” Mr HunterSmith explained. While there have been a number of other techniques using 3D images to measure volume and shape, until now none have proven reliable. “What we can now do is create software-generated 3D reconstructions, calculate and visualise volume differences, and produce bio-models of
the breasts using a 3D printer for tactile appreciation of volume differential,” Mr Hunter-Smith said. In one case study, researchers found the new technique accounted for a volume difference of 116cm³ from traditional methods, dramatically aiding in preoperative planning and reducing operation time. “By printing the breast model we also can give the patient something physical to hold onto, helping them get a better understanding of the reconstruction. This gives them the invaluable opportunity to provide feedback before the surgery,” Mr Hunter-Smith said. He said ensuring the size and shape of the reconstructed breast was in line with the patient’s expectations was of upmost importance to reconstructive surgeons. “We know breast reconstruction after breast cancer can be a significant milestone for patients. In 2014 we completed a study using 10 years of data that confirmed breast reconstructions have positive effects on a patient’s psychological, physical and sexual well-being,” he said. The 3D printing study has been published in international medical journals.

Reconnective Healing ® is on the Mornington Peninsula Reconnective Healing originated from a revelation to Dr Eric Pearl - a successful chiropractor in Los Angeles. When practising his profession, he suddenly found that patients were coming in and experiencing spontaneous healings without being touched. Reconnective Healing has now been experienced by many thousands of people worldwide. It is recognised and supported by science and documented in international studies. Reconnective Healing completely transcends traditional energy healing techniques. It is neither a therapy nor a treatment. It does not focus on symptoms. Reconnective Healing is a return to the optimal state of balance, and is the result of interacting with a spectrum of frequencies that consist of energy, light and information. It induces deep relaxation that activates the body’s ability to naturally heal itself. Clients report effects such as mental clarity, emotional balance, vitality, a feeling of peace and well-being. For those who have experienced it, Reconnective Healing is frequently life changing in its impact. Both Jill and Barbara have trained with Dr Eric Pearl and are both Certified Reconnection practitioners. Recently they attended a refresher seminar with Dr Eric Pearl at the Sunshine Coast. Reconnective Healing is available on the Mornington Peninsula by local practitioners, Jill (Mt Martha, 0422 697 301) and Barbara (Skye, 0433 240 874).

Everything we love about the peninsula, fresh every month
“Beautiful India, to return again after almost 20 years in a completely different capacity and phase in my life with 15 women, one of them being my 14-year-old daughter.”
What a challenge I had set myself, an age range of 14-73 on a 12-day ‘heart of the yogi tour’. We were to experience yoga, meditation, bathing in the Ganges River and seeing some of India’s highly worshipped temples including the Taj Mahal. What we got was so much more, some of the most enriching, powerful, unforgettable experiences. I don’t think there was one person in our wonderful group who wasn’t deeply deeply touched by the beauty, poverty and spiritual richness of India. We had a highly humble, devoted Indian Rajasthani man called Mukesh who made us feel safe and nurtured. We went to unique off the beaten track places and spent time in a traditional mud village hut after being blessed through ceremony at the lake in Kusum Sarovar. We were even shown the temple’s secret fresco treasures unlocked
by the local grey-bearded, white-robed clad keeper of the Kusum Sarovar temple. There were moments of great emotion and tears of sadness and joy at the Sandipani Muni school where, after meeting the children and the workers, we knew that our sponsorship WOULD truly change the life of a child and her family. I was moved by Nicolette’s devotion to the school and the humanness and love of the cow shelter man. There were special mornings of yoga and meditation as the sun emerged, time dancing with the orphanage children, a moving moment on Mount Kunja Puri practicing yoga with 24 people as the sun rose over the Himalayas. All these moments were so precious. I love that we have this memory together.

Chisholm is exploring Aussies’ love of food from exotic destinations and challenging us to consider quality native ingredients “right on our doorstep”.
Award-winning indigenous chef Clayton Donovan
A unique dining experience organised by Chisholm is sparking the conversation about how we treat Australia’s native foods, with awardwinning indigenous chef Clayton Donovan and culinary author John Newton serving up a four-course bush-tucker degustation experience in Dandenong in June. “If the acceptance of (new) foods can help Australians become more tolerant of new arrivals to this land, surely then it can do the same with the food of those who were here long before we arrived,” says Newton, author of The Oldest Foods on Earth (NewSouth, 2016) “Food shapes culture, food binds us together and forces us apart. In the
same way, by accepting the food of this land, which we are beginning to do after almost 230 years, this will contribute to culinary reconciliation.” The degustation menu included Merimbula Oysters with Finger Lime and Pickled Sea Blite, Cheese and Macadamia Nut Beignets with Native Reductions, Fried Saltbush, Lemon Myrtle Smoked Kangaroo and Wattle Seed and Bush Tomato ice cream. In the lead-up to the dinner, Donovan ran master classes for cookery students at Chisholm’s Dandenong campus. “Lack of knowledge is the barrier to integrating native ingredients, which is why I’m at Chisholm,” Donovan said. “People want to know about, and experiment with, these ingredients so by working at a TAFE level, we can provide young people with the knowledge that can create change. It’s reconciliation on a plate through the oldest ritual in the world.”

Peninsula snares seven International Cool Climate Wine Show Trophies BY ANDREA KELLETT
The Mornington Peninsula has claimed seven Trophies at the prestigious 2016 International Cool Climate Wine Show - Australia’s foremost show for cool climate wines. Tucks Ridge, Elgee Park, Red Hill Estate, Foxeys Hangout and Bittern Estate all produced Trophy wins – the highest award at the annual event. Many Medals were also won by Mornington Peninsula wines. It is a coup for the peninsula and further cements the region’s reputation for producing top class cool climate wine. The event attracts more than 600 wines in 25 competition classes from around the world. Tucks Ridge scored a trifecta of Trophies, with its Buckle Pinot Noir 2013 winning the coveted Best Red Wine of Show Trophy as well as the Best Mornington Peninsula Red of Show and Best Pinot Noir 2013 Trophies. Tucks Ridge Operations Manager Ashley Brewer said his team was thrilled. “The Buckle Pinot Noir has been a high scoring wine for close to a decade but we were up against other fantastic operations,” he said. The Buckle Pinot Noir is Tucks Ridge’s flagship wine and Mr Brewer said the 2013 vintage was made with beautifully concentrated fruit. “It was kind of a Goldilocks vintage in terms of the volume,” he said. “We didn’t get too much or too little… The 2013 vintage is definitely one of the great ones.” Elgee Park was awarded the Best Mornington Peninsula White of Show Trophy for its Elgee Park Family Reserve Chardonnay 2015. Elgee Park General Manager Laurence Tedesco said it was recognition for a beautifully balanced, elegant wine by celebrated JULY 2016 (56)
winemaker Geraldine McFaul. “It’s certainly a good talking point for our cellar door staff,” he said. The Elgee Park Family Reserve Chardonnay 2015 is made using quality French oak and grapes from Chardonnay vines planted at Elgee Park since the late 1970s and early 80s. Red Hill Estate won the Best Pinot Noir 2014 Trophy for its Single Vineyard Pinot Noir 2014 and Cellar Door Manager Mark Nolan said everyone was excited. “It’s the best Pinot Noir we’ve done in about 10 years and there was only such a small amount of it too,” he said. “The 2015 is looking exceptional as well.” Foxeys Hangout won the Best Pinot Gris Trophy for its Foxeys Hangout Pinot Gris 2015 and Foxeys Hangout owner Michael Lee said it was a wonderful result. “It was a warm year and we got lovely floral aromatics in the wine,” he said. “Part of the story, I feel, with Pinot Gris, is the wines that you get can be quite neutral but we do a lot of work to bring out the aromatics and we get a really great result.” Bittern Estate claimed the Best Rosé Trophy for its Bittern Estate Rosé 2015 and Bittern Estate’s Garry and Matthew Zerbe (father and son) said they were “over the moon”. “It’s pretty special because we produce both Shiraz and Pinot Noir and make Rose from both of those juices,” Garry said. “The combination of the two makes it more complex than single-grape Rose. It’s a very interesting wine.” The wines are judged by a 12-member team including two Masters of Wine: Meg Brodtmann, chair of judges, and Alison Eisermann.

FOOD WINE PRODUCE Eldridge Estate Winemaker/Proprietor David Lloyd is a busy man. In between running a vineyard and researching the science behind it, he recently jetted off to the UK to share his expert knowledge at the International Cool Climate Wine Symposium. 2016 also marks Eldridge Estate’s 21st birthday. Mr Lloyd spoke with Mornington Peninsula Magazine during a break in his schedule, from Iceland. You are presenting a paper at the International Cool Climate Wine Symposium. How did this come about? The symposium is held every four years and is aimed at people who have an interest in sharing their experience of growing grapes and producing wine in cool climate regions. This year it was set in Brighton, England. Not enough people are aware of the extent of grape and wine production in England and Wales. I accidentally discovered that my vineyard produces quite different styles of wine from places within its boundaries only 100metres apart. I trained as a scientist and set about trying to find out why. The first thing to note is that the differences between the wines from the two patches were described by those who tasted them as “Structural”. I had them tested by an independent laboratory who found that although the acid levels are the same in the two wines the tannins were measurably different eg 700mg/l compared to 1080 mg/l. Technical stuff but an answer. The next point to note is that the two patches have a subtle difference in soil temperature and the air temperature through the growing season. I have spent three years investigating all this information using a range of equipment such as soil and air temperature data loggers, soil moisture data loggers as well as laboratory tests. The French use the word “Terroir” to describe differences between places where wine is produced but it is a little ethereal in terms of giving information about what is going on at the places. I had developed techniques to study the terroir of my vineyard and the Symposium seemed like the perfect place to show my work to others. Tell us about your new release Pf Methode Champenoise I started making wine in the mid ‘70s and not long after that discovered how wonderful the Mornington Peninsula

is as a place to produce the styles of wine that I love. A friend bought a small vineyard in the late ‘80s and asked me to make wine for him. I thought his site was too shaded and suggested he let me make some “fizz” as a first try. He did and the result was very good. In 1990 I obtained some Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes from a vineyard in Red Hill, now known as Staindl and made my own batches of fizz. People really liked it and called it Davos Peninsula fizz. Many local winemakers used it for family celebrations and I explored various methods and blends. In 1995 when my late wife Wendy and I bought a 10-year-old vineyard it was suggested by Nat White the region’s most experienced vigneron - that I make my own sparkling. We produced it but decided to call it Pf in recognition of its history rather than any hip marketing term. The new release is from 2010. It was picked in March 2010 and was fermented and aged for a little while in French oak barrels before I used what is known as Methode Champenoise to turn a still white wine into my Peninsula fizz. I then let it rest in the bottle on its yeast lees for 6 years before disgorgement in April and release in June. The extra time in bottle on its yeast lees gives it extra complexity. It has a long lasting flavour and fine mousse. 2016 is Eldridge Estate’s 21st birthday. What’s the story behind your ‘prayer of thanks in another cellar door’? Many winemakers believe Saint Vincent will look after them and their vineyard. I am not religious but in acknowledgement of the tradition gave thanks to an image of St Vincent that I saw at a cellar door in France. The friends took the photo and we thought it appropriate to acknowledge the faith and belief that others have and also in memory of my late father who was an Anglican minister with faith and belief. My father was also a very practical person who told a story of a chaplain in the first world war running away from a gas attack with a group of soldiers. He came across a soldier praying and asked the man what he was doing and the soldier replied that he was praying for God’s help. The chaplain replied that as God had already given the man legs, he should start running. That pretty much sums up my thoughts. It is now 21 years since my late wife Wendy and I bought our vineyard. We had a shared dream of producing cool climate wines of excellence in a place that we thought was pretty perfect. We worked very hard amongst the vines as well as maintaining day jobs for quite a number of years. The aim was to get it set up well so that when
we gave up our day jobs life could be a little more relaxing and maybe even enjoy the fruits of our labour. I released some very special wines this year, 21 years after we started chasing our dream so I thought it appropriate to share the celebration with many of our friends and customers. Can you tell us a bit about that 6-minute video you have on your website? It looks like you’ve hired a drone photographer and spent a year working on it? I met a young man called Vaman Porovit who makes videos using a drone. He is an accredited drone pilot and set up a business called Helix Aerial and I asked him to make a video for me. I have long had a vision in my mind of producing instructional videos about Eldridge. The use of a drone made it possible. It took us nearly 18 months and many hours of filming to produce the 6-minute video but I think it is worth it. Most people have a view of how a vineyard and winery go about their business but few understand the reality let alone the hands-on nature of the work. Eldridge produces less than a 1000 cases of wine a year spread across 10 different wines from our 3 hectares of vineyard. The video compresses all the events of my year into about 6 minutes. There is a large video screen on the wall in my cellar door where people can see it or if they go to the Eldridge Website it is under the FAQ headed Vineyard i.e. https://eldridge-estate.com.au/ vineyard/ You write on your website about the loss of your wife, with whom you bought and transformed the vineyard. What drives you to continue? This is a tough question to answer because it was a shared dream and we set about doing everything together. What kept me going from the time of her diagnosis in June 2012 until her death in Feb 2014 was the help of the local community who wanted our work to continue. Since 2014 it has not been easy and my view of the future has changed a lot. I now have a very philosophical perspective where I would rather enjoy life but give it my best with the understanding that the joy and pleasure we have now could be snatched away at any time.

Chamfer House Mihaly Slocombe Residential Architecture - Houses (Alterations and Additions) Chamfer House revisits a post and beam dwelling designed in 1977 by Kevin Borland. It sits within an established garden on Oliver’s Hill, a crucible of late modernism overlooking Port Phillip Bay. The clients wanted to protect the timber structure and ceilings they loved, while updating the house to suit their young family. The architect’s intervention assumed a strategy of sensitive infiltration. They touched every room, some more heavily than others, yet retained the house’s core personality: the romantic rationalism that characterised much of Borland’s later work. They unkinked the plan, pulled back a touch on the 1970s psychedelics and reconfigured the living and sleeping areas to better connect with the garden. They sought to build on the juxtaposition of structural rationality and romanticism, layering a rational spatial sequence with an exploded interpretation of the chamfer. (pictured left and right)

Main Ridge House Noxon Giffen Residential Architecture – New ‘Penny’s House’ lies on a 1ha site amongst orchards and rural holdings in Main Ridge. With expansive views of rolling hills to the south west, the site is exposed to the prevailing cold southwesterly and seasonal northerly winds. Central to the brief was the desire to optimise the views to the west and for a simple and functional house with ‘texture and patina’. The dwelling and outdoor spaces nestle into the hillside, connecting with views and natural elements, thereby embedding the occupants in their ‘place’. The dwelling has been sculpted to draw the inner spaces out into the landscape and light and air deep into the interior. The site strategy also creates a northerly courtyard with a more sheltered and contained quality. A covered deck space has been carved out of the dwelling, bringing light into the interior and light-scoops further articulate the interior. The architecture is elemental, raw and honest.

Split House BKK Architects Residential Architecture – New Set within a relatively recent subdivision on the side of Mt Martha, the Split House negotiates a complex range of conditions typical of emerging coastal developments. New houses for ‘downsizers’ in a suburban mode, paved driveways and letterboxes prevail, vying for the expansive views to Port Philip Bay, and backed by the relatively wild, coastal woodland of Mt Martha Public Park. Construction works are ongoing in the area; completed houses with gardens at varying stages of maturity are punctuated by empty lots cleared of all vegetation. Within this context the Split House provides a range of spatial relationships to its site and the broader territory that balances the owners’ desire for privacy and engagement with their surrounds. The house comprises two simple
volumes linked by a splayed stair that also acts as a seating area for people to gather. Occupying separate levels that follow the natural contours of the site, the two pavilions provide a separation between the upper living/master bedroom zone and rumpus room/ guest bedrooms below.
Winter is the perfect time to start planning your dream outdoor transformation in time for Summer, whether it’s an alfresco deck, landscaped gardens or a combination of both designed around a swimming pool. Peninsula local Andrew Whyte, of Andrew Whyte Landscape Design, has been project managing and crafting custom outdoor spaces for more than 20 years. The key to a beautiful result, he says, is the design and the role of the landscaper designer is to bring all the elements together with precision. “The design starts with a wish list – and that might be a pool, cubby house, entertaining area – and then we expand on that,” he explains. “We talk about structure and function. We always talk about the size of the table and the number of chairs required on a weekly basis and a yearly basis.” Andrew Whyte Landscape Design specialises in contemporary outdoor spaces. The team can advise on swimming pool design, from shape and location to intricate tile selection to suit the space, the client’s personality and lifestyle. Start planning now and enjoy your perfect outdoor space next Summer, by design. ANDREW WHYTE LANDSCAPE DESIGN T: 9017 4344 E: andrew@whyte.net.au W: www.whytelandscapedesign.com.au JULY 2016 (56)

Winter is considered by most home owners as somewhat of a “downtime” in the garden. If you are an avid or an aspiring food grower, however, this time of year is when we can not only continue to grow many crops but also get prepared for future harvests. While the cool season may see many of our favourite crops fade away, there are many abundant fruit and veggies that can be planted, nurtured and harvested during this period. Vegetables such a leafy greens, broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, peas, broadbeans, garlic, onions, among others, and many herbs, thrive during these wintery months. Several fruits are also providing nature’s goodness now, in particular the huge range of citrus that we can grow here on the peninsula. Keeping up with successive plantings of your vegies is an important step in linking growing seasons and ensuring that you and your family are receiving the year-round pleasures of edible gardening. Depending on the crop and your available space, you will want to be
planting new seedlings every two to six weeks to keep up with your meal requirements. Crop rotating is one tool that we use to determine how this process works in the garden, and it is worth familiarising yourself with the process, but it’s not “the be all and end all”. If you are relatively new to edible gardening, what we want to focus on is simply getting new plants in the ground on a regular basis. Even if you have a small patch, there is always room to squeeze in the next plantings. For a few brief examples, broccoli or broccolini can be planted every four weeks, lettuces and radishes every two to three weeks, and dark leafy greens such as spinach and Kale every six weeks (depending on your usage of course). Perennial vegetables including rhubarb and asparagus can also be planted now as bare-root crowns that will spring to life again as the weather warms. The cooler months are also the time when we maintain and plant our deciduous fruit trees. Structural pruning, feeding and disease control are all carried out at this time of year. We can grow an extraordinary range of fruit trees on the peninsula, including apple, pear,

quince, peach, nectarine, apricot, plum, mulberry and fig to name a few. Also many nut trees. While caring for these during winter is most important, it is a great time to expand your small home orchard or begin the journey with your first trees. And it’s not just fruit trees that can go in now. The deciduous caneberries (raspberries, blackberries, etc), currants and gooseberries can all be planted now also, and planning for space in your garden for a range of these beauties will surely add some flavour to your summer harvests. When planned, planted and cared for well, many people are surprised the amount of food you can produce around your home. It’s not so rewarding when you don’t harvest much. But if you manage your garden cleverly, regular harvests will become your new norm. And if there’s an oversupply? Well, preserving aside, sharing your excess brings its own joys. Get inspired.
Happy gardening. Drew Cooper, Edible Gardens www.ediblegardens.com.au
