5973 6424 or email: team@mpnews.com.au www.mpnews.com.au Bienvenue: Kunyung Primary School students got into the spirit of French Day last week. Picture: Yanni

French is fun, n'est-ce pas?

FRENCH Day at Kunyung Primary School, Wednesday, culminated in a French-inspired lunch for all with students enjoying chicken baguettes or ham and cheese croissants, palmiers or meringues.

Another highlight was watching the movie Ratatouille in French and singing French songs.

The day is held each year to celebrate the students’ and teacher Madame Alexandra Montana’s hard work throughout the year.

“It’s an exciting day for the students to have fun and is a chance for the Kunyung community to celebrate the diversity of people around the world,” she said. “We want our pupils to be global citizens who are internationally minded and work together to achieve peace.

“Exploring a variety of cultures develops an appreciation of individuals and their similarities and differences while having fun with each other at the same time.”

Students participated in a parade, played pétanque, and created stained glass windows and Christmas cards.

The school says it aims to develop in its students a desire to form opinions, discuss and share thinking with others, and learn to accept and value other people and their culture.

Vive La difference!

Nets ban snares fishermen Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au THE lost campaign to continue commercial fish netting in Port Phillip has had a devastating impact on established participants.

One Rye fisherman of long standing was too upset to talk last week with his livelihood – and way of life – coming to an end.

Johnathon Davey said many bay fishermen, after fighting the impending ban for five or even 10 years, had “developed mental health issues which have not been thought through” by decision-makers.

The Fisheries Amendment Bill 2015 passed in state parliament last week specifies that net fishing will be phased out by 2022, with Corio Bay closed to all netting from 1 April 2018.

This was a key commitment of the

state government’s Target One Million plan for recreational fishing, which aims to get more people fishing, more often, and increasing participation to one million by 2020.

Proponents of the ban say it will increase recreational catch rates and the size of fish available for anglers over the next seven years.

But commercial netters, including those at the southern end of the bay, point out that they have sustainably

netted quality table fish for generations alongside recreational anglers. They feel hard hit by the ban which they say will deny buyers access to fresh fish at the Melbourne markets, and that compensation packages are inadequate.

The most popular species sought are flathead, whiting, bream, snapper, gummy shark, squid, garfish, trevally, flathead, barracouta and slimly mackerel.

The legislation also specifies how compensation will be determined for

the 43 commercial licence holders and provides for a non-netting fishery – such as long-lining – of up to eight licence holders from 1 April 2022.

Seafood Industry Victoria’s Davey said the “vast majority of the community does not understand what the ban will mean. By April, when the licences are bought out, about 500-600 tonnes of fresh fish annually will no longer be available to consumers,” he said.

Billson quits politics, puts family first Neil Walker neil@mpnews.com.au DUNKLEY will have a new elected representative after the next federal election. That result a certainty after Liberal MP Bruce Billson announced he is quitting politics last week.

In a statement released last Tuesday (24 November) Mr Billson said he will not seek re-election and “decided it is the right time to ‘hang up the campaign R.M. Williams’ [shoes]”.

The former small business minister’s exit from politics follows a 20-year stint as a parliamentarian including 12 years as either a cabinet or shadow cabinet minister.

Mr Billson was axed from cabinet by incoming Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull after Mr Turnbull ousted former prime minister Tony Abbott in September.

Mr Billson’s decision to walk away from politics came after consultation with his family.

“It has become clear to us that while I love what I do, it is not possible for me to fully do what I love,” he said in the statement.

He described his time in parliament as “both challenging and incredibly satisfying” since it included many roles in portfolios such as veteran affairs, defence, foreign affairs and trade, immigration, indigenous and multicultural affairs.

“To be able to work ‘selflessly’ for your community and nation is what is required and rightfully expected. However to do so requires a ‘selfishness’ in terms of availability and intellectual

focus which family experience as being physically and mentally ‘away’ an awful lot and for key events.

“Our conclusion after much consideration is that the goal of a more family-friendly professional life of purpose, challenge and impact is best pursued in another field.”

Despite being dumped from cabinet, Mr Billson vowed to support the Turnbull government by “ensuring the talented new Ministerial team has maximum opportunity for ‘clear air’ and a sure-footed start”.

He thanked his “sweetheart Kate, my children, the incredibly talented and committed staff I have had the good fortune to work with, the Liberal Party, my campaign team, supporters and all those whose advice, support and wise counsel has made possible my parliamentary career and the honour of representing the community in which I grew up.”

“I have loved these days and make public this decision with no regret, remorse or bitterness.”

Frankston mayor Cr James Dooley thanked Mr Billson for his work on behalf of the region in a statement issued

by Frankston Council.

“The Honourable Bruce Billson has served our community well for two decades, having done everything that he can for our community. This announcement is a great loss for council, as we will need to establish the same strong report and working relationship that we currently enjoy, with his successor. Whatever the Member for Dunkley chooses to do next, we have no doubt that he will succeed.”

Cr Dooley said council is preparing a federal election lobbying plan, follow-

ing its Speak Up For Frankston state election advocacy campaign last year, to “provide our city with an opportunity to highlight and escalate projects for our community”.

Labor has preselected defence lawyer Peta Murphy as its candidate for Dunkley at the next federal election.

The Liberal Party will now be forced

to undertake a preselection process to nominate a candidate to contest the seat.

Mr Billson will stay on as Dunkley MP until writs are issued for the federal election, just under a fortnight before polling day.

The next federal election must be held before or on 14 January 2017.

Busy callouts WILD weather last week saw crews from Volunteer Marine Rescue at Mornington and Hastings called out to several rescues.

VMR spokesman Tim Warner said the Mornington crew was called out last Wednesday at 5pm to search for a man missing near Frankston pier “We launched the boat within 15 minutes of receiving the call from Water Police and arrived at the search area 15 minutes later,” he said.

“Unfortunately, a short time after we arrived the Police Air Wing spotted the person who was deceased.

Our thoughts go to the family, and all volunteers who attended.”

Mr Warner said the crew returned to Mornington and received a call that a kite surfer was in trouble off Mt Martha. The crew arrived to find the wind had swung from north to west and the kite surfer had simply “run out of wind. A short time later the wind was up and the sailor shot back to the beach”.

He said VMR volunteers had experienced a few late nights last week. “At 10pm on Tuesday evening, Mornington was called to assist a vessel off Patterson River that had run out of fuel.

“Our Hastings crew has also been busy with a 10pm call to assist a vessel off Corinella with a damaged propeller as well as calls at 2.50am on Tuesday for a yacht aground off Hastings, at 10pm for a vessel with a failed water pump, at 9.30pm for a vessel with a flat battery, a 3pm for two kayaks stuck on a mud bank, and at 9.30am for a vessel that had lost oil pressure in its motor.”

To report a person or vessel in trouble, call Water Police on 1800 135 729, 000 or VMR on 0419 233 999.

Deadly toll: Students Rachel Dodd, Olly Brayne and Errin Lindner at the Counting Women display at Chisholm TAFE’s Frankston campus. Picture: Gary Sissons

Shirt fronts show reality of family violence A CONFRONTING project focused on domestic violence is on display at Chisholm TAFE’s campus in Frankston.

The student initiated ‘Counting Women’ T-Shirt Project, has a T-shirt for each woman in Australia murdered by a partner or ex-partner this year.

Each T-shirt lists the woman’s name and details where possible and is accompanied with relevant newspaper articles and a blackboard updated with the current death toll, 78 in 2015.

Chisholm group coordinator of community services Dr Ilsa Evans said the project had been a pivotal assignment for Diploma of Community Services students.

“Highlighting this topical issue is of critical importance to all members of our community and we see family violence not just a personal issue - but a community one,” Dr Evans said.

“We want this project to be an important representation of this serious topic and ensure

our community understands the impact it causes”.

The project was started after Rosie Batty, Australian of the Year, visited Chisholm TAFE’s Time to Change community forum to discuss family violence.

The students aim to use research from Destroy The Joint, an online community for gender equality, to maintain the display as an ongoing visual representation of domestic violence.

Last Wednesday (25 November) was White Ribbon Day, a day dedicated to raising awareness to stop men’s violence against women in Australia where more than one woman a week is killed by a current or former partner.

Anyone who has experienced, or is at risk of, family and domestic violence and/or sexual assault can call 1800 RESPECT (1800 737 732) for counselling and help. Call 000 in an emergency.

Owners banking on run for the money Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au MORNINGTON racehorse Claro El Banco is living up to his name for nine owners whose relatively small outlay in buying him could result in a big payday in January.

Spanish for “Clear the Bank”, the name sums up the fortunes of the two year old which is part-owned

by Roy and Liz Farrell, of Dromana, track ambulance driver Peter Seaman, of Somerville, Bobby Nissen, of Mornington, and six others whose involvement has added colour to the gelding’s rags to riches story.

Bought for $80,000 at the Magic Millions 2015 Gold Coast yearling sale in January by trainer Jason Petch, Claro El Banco last week won the Magic Millions Clockwise Classic at Ballarat, running as a $15 outsider.

More than just a race, the win qualified him for a start in the $2 million Magic Millions 2YO Classic over 1200 metres in January, which could set the owners up for life.

On the way he will contest the $200,000 Magic Millions Wyong 2YO Classic over 1100 metres on 17 December.

The Ballarat win was a godsend for the owners who didn’t give up hope after Claro El Banco – or Rocky to his owners – came last in his only other start: the Maribyrnong Trial Stakes for two year olds over 1000 metres at Flemington in October.

“He performed well below our expectations due to the way the race was run and we disregarded that

Their boy: Roy and Liz Farrell, Jason Petch, Bobby Nissen and partner Rae Clarke.

as we knew we were good moving forwards,” Petch’s partner Lynne Rees said last week.

The performance was doubly disappointing for Peter Seaman, who watched the race from behind the wheel of his ambulance as he followed the field around the track.

The Ballarat win was a different story, but, in racing, there are many strange tales, as Ms Rees explains:

“Roy and Liz Farrell [who previously ran a Mornington book store] couldn't attend the race meeting as they had no substitute player for their bowls team and wouldn't let the team down. They have been loyal supporters and clients of the (Petch) stable for three years.

“Ambulance driver Peter Seaman and partner Nicole Joyce bought their share in the horse in July after attending a stable function and seeing him.

It is their first experience at ownership. What sealed their decision was that Peter’s father-in-law, Bob Cooper, was really sick and they thought it would give him something to be involved in as he had been a clerk-ofthe-course in Victoria for many years and loves the racing industry.

“He lives at Ballarat but was too unwell to make it to the track on Saturday, so Peter and Nicole were able

to take the trophy there and enjoy the celebrations with him.”

Ms Rees said owners Tyson Folland and partner Elisha Blake bought into the horse after Mr Seamen recommended it.

“It is their first racehorse, too,” she said. “They were unable to attend [Ballarat] as Tyson was best man at a wedding. He said he wasn’t game to mention the races and was happy when the wedding photographer asked if he could put the races on the radio.

“That's when Tyson told them that he part-owned a horse that was racing. As a result they all backed it at $15:1 and Tyson was the most popular person on the day – I only hope he didn't outshine the bride.”

Racing identity Bobby Nissen has worked around the area and in floating (horse transport) for years, but this is his first horse. He has mobility issues and couldn’t attend the Ballart race as there was no disabled car park available.

Other owners include Melbourne businessman and manager Paul Fielding. He joined the stable last year on the recommendation of his brother, Glenn, who has been a loyal supporter and client for four years.

Ms Rees said even naming the horse had its moments. “Paul picked it but, on the day I submitted it for registration, he messaged me and asked if he could change it.

“I said yes, but then I got a message saying: ‘In racing it is bad luck to change things, so let’s run with it.’

“And he has certainly cleared the bank for them.”

The blow-up in the chamber we had to have AFFABLE new shire mayor Graham Pittock was given a damned good tryout at his first council meeting of 2015-16. He remained affable almost throughout the four and a half hours the meeting ran. Close to the end all smiles had faded.

It was a heavy agenda, possibly too heavy for a single meeting. Some participants, despite this, adopted a leisurely pace, taking some items up side alleys and down the garden path.

All this came to a head late in the night when tempers were getting frayed. Cr Pittock suggested one exasperated dissident councillor, Anne Shaw, might care to leave the chamber.

Now was her time to build a CV as a debater par excellence. She taunted, she tantalised, she engaged in badinage, she advised the chair how to run the meeting. Her penchant for points of order was in full, vivid flower. She even engaged with the gallery when accused of being anti-democratic, asking them to mind their language.

The blow-up has been a while coming, but its coming was inevitable.

And understandable. Those who used to be known as the “rusted-ons� held sway in the chamber for a decade or more, rarely losing a vote on any issue they supported.

Then, in a byelection just over a year ago, Cr Tim Wood won Red Hill

Antonella Celi, a leading performer, possibly aiming to develop her debating and procedural skills in pursuit of a parliamentary career, state or federal, was in full voice.

She no doubt was aware that Frankston’s federal MP and dumped Coalition minister Bruce Billson had announced he was quitting politics and maybe sees a chance to live the dream – chauffeured cars, helicopters, fact-finding trips, a ministry, the lot.

ward and the rusted-ons’ 6-5 majority became a 5-6 debacle – so far as they are concerned. Politics without power? Bruce Billson knows how it feels.

Times have changed. Former rustedon Cr David Gibb has adapted to the times and is to be commended for it.

Cr Anne Shaw battles on, dedicated to her principles and her community, as does Cr David Garnock.

Cr Andrew Dixon must sometimes wonder, as he expressed in a moment of despair late in Monday’s meeting: “What am I doing here?� An existential question many have asked over the millennia.

Then there’s Cr Celi, a strong hyper-

active worker in her community, in social media, on committees, attracted moth-like to the glint of a camera lens.

She has a heap of admirers, who will not take kindly to this appraisal of her. No matter: that is the burden of a commentator.

Next October will see a new council elected. Manoeuvring has already started. Which councillors (if any) will call it a day? Who is eyeing off vulnerable seats? How will the numbers fall? Will we witness the rusted-ons rise like a soufflĂŠ, from 5-6 back to 6-5? What effect would that have on council policy?

Watch this space. We live in interesting times.

Comment sought on bushland fire plans RESIDENTS living near shire bushland reserves or with an interest in them can contribute to new fuel management plans released by the council last week.

The shire has 233 bushland reserves and draft maps for each one will guide fuel management for the next five years.

The plans will be on public exhibition until Thursday 21 January.

The mayor, Cr Graham Pittock, said the overall objective of the maps was to engage the community, assess bushfire threats, and guide risk reduction. “Meaningful risk reduction depends on the shire communicating its plans and work programs as well as understanding how residents prepare for and respond to fire risk,� he said.

The shire would also seek feedback

from peninsula fire brigades. “The shire takes fire fuel management seriously, and strives to achieve both best practice ecological and environmental management as well as ensure and preserve community safety and amenity.�

He said preparations for the fire season included fuel reduction in bush reserves, inspecting more than 4500 blocks of land, community education sessions with the CFA, roadside fire prevention works, patrols of reserves on days of total fire ban, vegetation removal for power line clearance and road verges, and “substantial fire planning in collaboration with CFA, Victoria Police, Parks Victoria, and the SES�.

Simon Thorning of the shire’s natural

systems section said opportunities for ongoing input into reserve fuel management planning would be provided through public forums, an online survey, multi-agency events, community group meetings, and “response to service requests�.

He said the shire was spending more than $1.6 million for fire management works – $700,000 on parks and roadsides, and $950,000 for “bushland management and other specialist contractors�.

The maps are on the shire’s website at www.mornpen.vic.gov.au under “Services For You� and then “Fire Emergency Management� or at shire offices in Rosebud, Hastings or Mornington. Call the shire’s fire education officer on 1300 850 600.

Program tackles ‘risky drinking’ among oldies

CHRISTMAS IS MY TWO

FRONT TEETH No false assumptions: Peninsula Health’s Older Wiser Lifestyles team leader Katherine Walsh with a patient.

exacerbated by alcohol, yet healthcare practitioners often do not ask them about their use of alcohol or drugs based on false assumptions.

“Not asking about drug use and drinking patterns and levels can result in healthcare professionals treating what they believe to be the symptoms of a medical problem, when, in fact, the symptoms are actually related to the use of alcohol or other drugs.”

Peninsula Health partnered with Flinders University to develop the first ever Australian guide for healthcare professionals.

AN “alarming increase” in alcohol and other drug-related problems by elderly residents is being tackled by healthcare professionals in what’s billed as an Australian first.

Peninsula Health’s Alcohol and Other Drug Services Program manager Stephen Bright will present the guide at a conference, Thursday.

“When we think about who experiences harm caused by alcohol, most people think about young people,” Dr Bright said.

“However, data shows the rate of risky drinking among young people has been decreasing, while risky drinking among older adults has been increasing.

“There is a similar trend with regard to the consumption of cannabis. This is very concerning.”

Dr Bright says “false assumptions” lead to older residents feeling they can’t ask for help. “Older adults are less likely to engage with traditional treatment services,” he said.

“They may perceive such services to be for younger people, or lacking mobility access or an appropriate ambience. Overseas, numerous services have been developed specifically for older adults.”

Dr Bright said Peninsula Health’s Older Wiser Lifestyles (OWL) – an older-adult-specific treatment service – provided early intervention through community development and age-specific treatment services.

Failing to tackle this growing issue now will have a major impact on future healthcare costs – especially given the rapidly ageing population, he said.

OWL team leader Katherine Walsh said: “Older adults represent a growing population who are experiencing a range of AOD-related harms that are often very specific to this population.

“For example, they often take medications that adversely interact with alcohol, or have medical co-morbidities (more than one illness) that are

Anger over net ban Continued from Page 1 “We are asking the government ‘Where will the fish come from?’ That’s what we would like to know. Restrictions in other areas [of the state and nationally] mean we will not be able to cater to demand and this will mean consumers have to buy imported fish.”

He scoffed at claims the bill included a “generous compensation package”, saying the loss of the industry would financially ruin previously sound family businesses.

The decision to reduce payments over the seven-year buy-out period “to encourage early exit from the fishery” was also gutting fishermen whose lives were being turned upside down.

“The bay’s a unique fishery,” he said. “It offers a sustainable resource and fishermen use methods that are ecologically friendly.”

He said markets would be affected by a shortage of quality local fish which would then have to be imported.

Agriculture Minister Jaala Pulford said compensation payments would depend on catch histories and “will provide proper recognition of individual investment and loss of income to licensees”.

“The government appreciates that this decision impacts on the livelihood of licence holders, many of whom are multi-generational fishers with strong family connections to the industry.

“The phasing out commercial net fishing will get more people fishing, more often, right here on Melbourne’s doorstep. “[It] will attract more visitors to this prime fishing destination, boosting local economies and supporting local businesses.”

Melbourne Seafood Centre chairman Andrew McLaughlin said the “biggest loser” would be the consumer. “They've got a beautiful array of fish that’s available to them in retail shops and restaurants.

“They all utilise that fish and it’s not going to be available to them anymore. And it’s the sort of thing that they won’t realise until it’s gone.”

Buyout spells Mike Hast mike@mpnews.com.au MORNINGTON fisherman Neville Hutchins was in a sombre mood last week when he found out legislation to ban commercial netting in Port Phillip had been passed in the Parliament.

“We knew it was coming but Dalton [his brother and fishing business partner] and I are very disappointed. Our customers are ropeable and I don’t think many of them will vote Labor in future.”

More than 2500 people have signed his petition in the past year calling on the government to reverse its decision.

The brothers are fourth generation peninsula fishermen with George Hutchins arriving at Mt Martha in the 1850s and several other family members working the waters off the southern peninsula and Mornington in the 1800s through till now.

But it will be the end of the line for the Hutchins when they hand back their fishing licences as the government phases out commercial net fishing by 2022.

And a fifth generation Hutchins will never get the chance to carry on the family business – Dalton's 16-yearold son Scott.

Neville Hutchins is also disappointed about the way the government intends to compensate Port Phillip’s 43 commercial licence holders, only 27 of who are active (he and Dalton have one each that costs $4500 a year).

“The licence has to be renewed every April and the government will

end of the line for fresh fish era

Look for kingfish

Last gasp: Neville and Dalton Hutchins’s Mornington fishing business is doomed as the state government phases out commercial net fishing. Picture: Yanni

remove 10 per cent of the value of a licence for every year we renew,” he said.

This would mean many licence holders giving up fishing well before 2022.

A question mark hangs over over compensation for the Hutchins fish shop on Fishermans Beach, Mornington, where the brothers sell about 10 tonne of fresh snapper, whiting, salmon, garfish and mullet each year taken between Olivers Hill at Frankston and Safety Beach. An earlier version of the shop was built in 1890.

Neville Hutchins said licence compo would be based on the “three worst years” of the past five years of catches.

He said when the government banned net fishing in Western Port just before the 2006 election, “we received $2000 each”.

“The net ban hasn’t made any difference to fish stocks in Western Port and it won’t in Port Phillip,” he said.

However, there was a thriving black market for Western Port fish and the same would happen in Port Phillip with amateur fishers selling their catch, he said.

There will be a shortage of local bait for amateur fishers. “There’s a bloke working out of Williamstown who takes about 100 tonne a year of pilchards and white bait [anchovies] so that goes,” he said.

And what will the Hutchins brothers do after handing over their licences? “I can’t speak for Dalton, but I'm 64 next birthday. I know nothing except fishing.

Perhaps I’ll sit on the beach and remember the good times.”

THE state government is joining the growing ranks of anglers in tracking down kingfish in Port Phillip.

The prized fish is coming under scrutiny as part of a government plan to get one million Victorians fishing by 2020.

A two-year study being undertaken

by Fisheries Victoria is aimed at ensuring the sustainability of kingfish populations and involves anglers reporting their catches and donating kingfish frames for scientific analysis.

“Kingfish have enjoyed a resurgence in popularity among saltwater anglers who consider them great sport and very good eating,” Fisheries Victoria executive director Travis Dowling said.

“On a single day last February, around 100 boats actively targeted kingfish near the entrance to Port Phillip so we know Melbourne’s anglers are very keen on the species.

“Fisheries managers want to learn more about kingfish populations including their growth rates, population structures and spawning habits. “[The study] will also trial the use of satellite tags to better understand kingfish movement patterns, including depth and water temperature preferences.”

Mr Dowling said keen anglers could help with the study by donating kingfish frames and keeping records of their catches over summer.

He said scientists will extract otoliths (ear bones) from kingfish frames to determine their age and use chemistry analyses to investigate kingfish temperature preferences.

Interested anglers can call Dr Corey Green, the study’s lead fisheries scientist, on 5258 0275 or email corey. green@ecodev.vic.gov.au

New release recorded in the past Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au MENTION Steve Warner to parents in Mornington or Mt Martha and you’ll more than likely get the response, “oh, yes, he taught our kids how to play guitar”.

Actually, you can substitute drums and several other instruments to that statement.

It seems that Warner’s been around the area teaching music forever.

But what is less known is Warner’s extensive background and presence in the Melbourne music scene and commercial world, extending from advertising jingles to composing for television documentaries and serials.

Last weekend saw a piece of his musical history repeated: the rerelease of his solo, self-titled album, Steve Warner.

It was first released in 1979 and now, repressed in yellow and blue vinyl, is also available on CD. Alerted to the value of original copies being traded on eBay, Warner decided the time was right for a reissue of his music which in today’s terminology would be seen as "psych (adelic) folk or maybe art-folk”.

He has notes that show in 1976 he described his music as “acid-folk, and the other says it defies definition”.

Warner performs professionally most weekends – “solo and low key” – and has 65 students learning guitar and a few more wanting to be drummers.

He enjoys teaching but believes it has “definitely held back my performing and composing career”.

“Because I enjoy teaching so much, I find it a very creative thing to do and it fulfils and satisfies [that] part of me that would normally be spent performing or recording more.”

Warner grew up in Mornington and when aged 10 was inspired when his father introduced him to a jazz

The music goes round: Musician Steve Warner and a new, coloured pressing of his self-titled album released in 1979.

drummer. A few years later he was led towards the electric guitar curtesy of his brother Tim (who later ran the Mornington Music centre).

His first gigs were as a member of Satan’s Slaves, a four-piece that he now sees as having a name that seems incongruous when playing thwir regular gig - Mornington church dances.

Eight years and many moves and sounds later he was freshly back from living in Tasmania playing with Spiff Rouch and the Untouchables. He left when “the fellas started making serious noises about taking it to the next level”. The remaining Spiffs kept exploring their “satire rock with a retro surf twist” before moving on to form “the core” of Australian Crawl.

The formalities out of the way, Warner was about to enter the decade that in all probability remains the biggest influence on his life today.

Warner’s recollections of making music in the decade 1975-85 seems like he was caught in a creative whirlwind.

At this stage he’s already matched up with Tammy and there’s a seemingly never ending list of bands and appearances and bits of producing for other musicians. During a six-week stint at a club in Cairns came the realisation that “I could feed my young family by playing covers”.

It hasn’t been done yet, but Warner says “a book could be written about that decade”.

It was also the time of the initial release of his first album, Steve Warner.

Recorded in 1976 at a “big white three-storey house” overlooking Hobart, Warner tells of borrowing a trail bike to make it up the steep road each day.

There was no rush to record and he experimented with slowing tapes and, for one track, fitting his guitar with “weird rope-core strings”.

Looking back, he sees he was obsessed with playing every instrument, singing every part: “Others can do most of this better than I can – it’s just something I have a need to do.

Blitz targets fine evaders A SHERIFF’S operation in Mornington last week nabbed 16 people with 178 outstanding warrants valued at more than $55,000.

A roadblock on Mornington-Tyabb Rd used numberplate-recognition technology to spot offenders.

Payment was received from 12 people on the day to finalise 45 warrants worth more than $15,000, a spokesperson said.

One driver with six warrants worth more than $2000 was notified that their

driver’s licence and vehicle registration would be suspended if they did not arrange to pay within seven days.

“It is disappointing that so many people continue to ignore their fines and let their situation spiral out of control,” Sheriff of Victoria Brendan Facey said.

Anyone with concerns about outstanding fines can call 1300 743 743.

Fines can be paid at fines.vic.gov.au or at any Justice service centre.

Later, listening back in the control room – hmm. This can be a heightened experience on a project that has had a lot of planning – and when it’s working, this moment is where it's at, for me.”

The sounds he chose for the album come from a variety of sources – guitar, piano, flute, bass, glockenspiel, percussion instruments (“some homemade or found”), a mono synth and clarinet.

Before entering the studio Warner and a close knit group of musicians had performed regularly around Melbourne’s coffee houses and folk clubs “cutting our performing teeth”.

“But this project sprang from a different beginning, one rooted in endless days and nights of recording at home as a teenager, making music in layers upon layers, discovering the concept of arranging, and of finding ways to make my reel-to-reel do things that it was never intended to do.”

It was a solo project that Warner’s

then girlfriend and now wife, Tammy, and a couple of friends “joined forces and made me promise to finally do”.

Neil Young’s line "24 and there's so much more" was also echoing around his head, “needling me to get this thing underway. I got there just in time”.

He was also “leaving behind a couple of years of dark, brooding, debilitating depression. Like a long, hidden, gloomy, subterranean tunnel with no exit, it had confused, engulfed and battered me until I could hardly breathe”.

Warner credits Tammy’s “love and perseverance” in helping clear his mind and getting him back where he felt at home - in the recording studio.

“This was a world I understood, the colours and textures of chords and harmony, and the journey that they can take you on if you are willing to follow.”

Back in Mornington with 500 completed vinyl records he and Tammy set about hand silk screening the album covers.

They were in a rented house “we couldn’t afford”, with covers spread over the floors and “pots of thick ink everywhere, turps, rags, squeegees, big screens, cardboard cover blanks and the smell of printing”.

The process was character building and Warner and Tammy now live in a house on a steep unmade road in Mt Martha. The main timber lined room looks out towards a bush-filled creek gully. It’s open plan living. The kitchen is part of the room which also doubles as artist Tammy’s studio and was included on last month’s annual Mornington Peninsula Artists’ Trail.

Trailers easy targets TRAILERS left unattended and unlocked in front gardens or on nature strips are tempting targets for thieves. Up to 13 trailers have been stolen in the Frankston and Mt Eliza in the past month.

Frankston detectives on Thursday 19 November charged a Frankston man with the theft of two trailers from properties in Seaford and Frankston. Detective Leading Senior Constable Richard Thomson, of Frankston CIU, said Mt Eliza, particularly, had been “hit pretty hard”. “Stealing a trailer is an easy crime to commit and cover up,” he said. “The trailers can be rebirthed and on-sold or cut up for parts or scrap metal, and their ID numbers can easily be removed.”

Medicentre shut AFTER hours GP care will still be available at Frankston Hospital after the Labor state government stepped in to provide funding to Peninsula Health to provide the service after the Medicentre at the hospital closed on Sunday.

The board of the privately-operated Medicentre decided to close the centre after losing federal funding. The afterhours clinic will remain open and staffed by locum doctors while Peninsula Health seeks expressions of interest to provide a longer-term service.

“The Frankston Medicentre provided vital care to local families for close to twenty years – by stepping in and providing additional funding we are ensuring this important after-hours care will still be available for local families when they need it,” Frankston Labor MP Paul Edbrooke said.

Ringtail possums and tree decline OPINION

By Dr Jeff Yugovic INDIGENOUS eucalypt trees are undergoing a massive decline from Mt Eliza to Mt Martha and beyond with the problem was first noticed by members of Mt Eliza Association For Environmental Care.

Ringtail possum overbrowsing “appears to be the main causal factor”, according to a 2014 study by Ecology Australia commissioned by Mornington Peninsula Shire to investigate the problem in Mt Eliza. The study concluded that the prognosis for remaining eucalypts was “extremely poor”.

Study findings were consistent with my observations. Possum damage is easily diagnosed and the recovery of trees after possum banding has proved that ringtails are killing the trees. Other forms of tree mortality are minor.

The tree decline is linked to dense, scrubby understoreys in which the ringtails evade their only remaining predator, the fox on the ground below.

The major native predators of ringtail possum are locally extinct including aerial and arboreal predators, which is why there is a ringtail overpopulation.

The problem is due to habitat alteration rather than habitat loss.

Recently my research has received attention in this newspaper (“Fox seen as answer to possum problem”, The News, 17/11/15), which caused some controversy. While MEAFEC agrees with EA and me that ringtails are the primary cause of decline, local wildlife experts Mal Legg, Hans

Chomped: Cathy Dowling of Mt Eliza Association For Environmental Care with a possum-damaged tree and its eaten top and hanging branches with uneaten leaves.

Brunner and Craig Thomson refute this (“Eucalypt dieback not just possums”, The News, 24/11/15).

They don’t live in the affected area or understand the problem. They say that tree decline has many causes, that it is multi-factorial. The EA study and my research have found that the multi-factors are essentially daddy possum, mummy possum and baby possum. Not to diagnose the problem correctly is to delay action, which could cost all of the remaining trees.

Mornington News 1 December 2015

The answer to the tree decline is simple and effective – thin the understorey and the tree decline will stop. Possums will be back in balance.

Why? Because there will be less habitat for possums and more possums taken on the ground by foxes, their only remaining predator. Culling is not an option, it is impractical to reintroduce the native predators, and we can’t band all the trees.

Understorey reduction as a management option is identified by Ecology

Australia. Its report suggests this will reduce ringtail habitat suitability and increase the risk of predation. It is fully supported by MEAFEC. Contrary to some claims, this is not a radical solution. Smythe’s 1841 survey showed that understoreys were mostly open at the time of European settlement so the currently dense understoreys are modern. The practical solution is to restore the open understoreys that previously existed.

It doesn’t require any more foxes than already exist. Foxes are everywhere and have proved impossible to eliminate. They partly replace the dingoes.

Yes, control foxes for fauna on the state threatened list, but there are none in the affected area.

Ecological thinning and burning will also greatly reduce the fire hazard in the affected area. As a CFA member I know that fuel loads are very high and there is the potential for very dangerous fires in the area. The possum solution will also address this fire danger in a major way.

Practical tips on diagnosing possum damage and installing possum bands are in the online discussion paper www.spiffa.org/do-ecosystems-needtop-predators.html I would suggest that people download and read this so we can save the remaining trees, with possums in balance and fire hazards reduced.

Space on wall for nature murals BUDDING Michelangelos from four primary schools are learning about flora and fauna in their area and then capturing their experiences on eye-catching murals.

The youngsters have been under the watchful eye of Red Hill artist Michael Leeworthy and their school class and art teachers.

The stunning result of their artistic endeavours will be unveiled by Cr Bev Colomb at Balcombe Estuary, Mt Martha, Old Campground rotunda at 10am on Monday, December 14.

Bushland friends group BERG Mt Martha supervised the project with the help of a grant from Mornington Peninsula Shire.

Children from Osborne and Mt Martha primary schools, Bentons Junior College and Balcombe Grammar worked with BERG Mt Martha volunteers and drew on their resources

to develop an understanding of the flora, fauna and ecology of the local environment.

The schools then painted four murals related to the Balcombe Creek environment.

Osborne primary children had a water-watch session looking for creatures in the creek. The resulting mural is called Under the Water.

Bentons Junior Grammar pupils painted Birds of Balcombe Creek Reserves after working with a BERG volunteer using a birds of Balcombe Creek brochure and their own research.

Balcombe Grammar pupils walked through the reserve observing the indigenous flora for their artwork. And Mt Martha pupils researched local fauna in the reserve for their mural.

On the day of the unveiling, schoolchildren will engage in activities inspired by the murals.

Providing paddle power to every one Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au IT’S now common at bayside beaches to see someone standing on a surfboard with a long, single-bladed paddle.

The paddlers seem to effortlessly glide past, often silhouetted against a setting sun and sometimes with a dog on board.

Stand up paddleboards (SUPs) provide an enjoyable exercise but, until now, have really been only available to the able bodied.

Matt Drysdale, a committee member of the Disabled Surfers Association Mornington Peninsula branch since 2011, decided the SUP experience should be available to everyone.

He explained his desire to make a SUP suitable for the disabled to members of SOLVE, a group of mainly retired “experts” who enjoy the challenge of designing aids for the disabled that are not commercially available.

After a few misses, SOLVE came up with a hit which meant that “test pilot” Jenny Angliss-Goodall could safely sit on a SUP, and even take a small dog along for the ride. In the past Ms Angliss-Goodall has also volunteered to be the first to trial a seat that enables disabled surfers to sit safely on a surfboard during the regular DSA events and be in a wheelchair pulled up a sand dune by a harness.

Both innovations were successful.

Mr Drysdale says his search to create “supability” came a couple of years ago when Ms Angliss-Goodall asked if

All aboard: Jenny AnglissGoodall seated on a stand up paddleboard with a support for a paddle and, above, holding on as Matt Drysdale provides the paddle power.

he could carry her on his SUP. “That weekend I made up a chair for the board and within two weeks we were testing it,” he said.

“The [first] chair [using a beach chair and PVC piping] was too wobbly and the board didn’t have enough volume to float us both properly.

We had a lot of fun finding this out, though.

“I then made up a set of handlebars to strap onto my other board that had more floatation and it was a success.

I started up the Facebook page and it

has gone from there.”

The first prototype chair made by SOLVE utilised a bar stool and included a strap so the paddle could not be lost overboard.

A second version has been undergoing sea trials at Mothers Beach, Mornington.

Mr Drysdale said it was an “amazing feeling being able to offer an experience [surfing and now SUP riding] that is taken for granted by most of us”.

“I love being out on the salt water

and think that every one should have that opportunity.”

The father of three describes himself as “a full time tradie. My spare time is spen between DSAMP, making art, surf, paddling and, since adopting an overweight rescue dog, running a lot”.

With SOLVE on the job to finesse the SUP design, Mr Drysdale now wants to create a beach wheelchair with changeable wheels to be used on any surface.

The wheelchairs will cost about $5000 each and once made will be

used at all DSAMP events.

He also needs SUP boards of varying sizes and volume and materials to make chairs and support frames for different people.

As well as launching a $12,000 appeal through the crowdfunding site gofundme.com/supability, which had raised more than $1000 by last Friday, Mr Drysdale and Ms Angliss-Goodall also plan to enter the Australia Day fun run.

LETTERS Restore habitat I was shocked and horrified to read the editorial by Barry Morris regarding with Ecologist Jeff Yugovic (“Fox seen as answer to possum problem”, The News 17/11/15). I cannot believe an educated person would offer such a short sighted method to the issue of dying eucalypts in Mt Eliza and Mt Martha.

To suggest that destroying the sanctuaries of native ringtail possums so that they will be forced to go to the ground in the hope they will be taken by foxes is so unacceptable.

When the possums are gone and the foxes are a big issue, what then? Foxes maim and sometimes kill small dogs, what then?

This whole problem began when we brought in animals that are feral to this country. We chopped down trees and removed habitat forcing the native animals to do what they have to survive.

Their predators were most likely killed by feral animals and destruction of their habitat and Mr Yugovic offers this idea.

It will only cause more issues. Why not try to reinstate the natural predators by setting aside areas that are native habitat for them and controlling or eliminating the fox issue.

I have a nesting box in a peppermint tree I planted and it has ringtail possums living in it.

I love watching them come out at night sometimes with joey babies on their back. They co-exist without any issues.

Plant more trees and look at the long term picture.

Mary Madigan, Langwarrin

Mixed diet l have heard it all now, using foxes to control ringtail possums in Mt Eliza and Mt Martha (“Fox seen as answer to possum problem”, The News 17/11/15). Does Ecologist Jeff Yugovic understand the behaviour of foxes and their eating habits. People often say to me because we are killing the foxes we are now in a rabbit plague.

That is an old wives’ tale.

A fox may catch a young rabbit and eat it but, like us, they change their diet all year round.

Do we eat chicken seven nights a week? l don’t.

Foxes will kill chickens for fun but l have never heard of them killing possums for fun, they will kill a few to eat.

Foxes are in the top 10 of the most destructive pest animals in Australia and we don’t need to protect them on the Mornington Peninsula, we have enough as it is, around 12 per square kilometre. Please come up with a better plan.

Thrilled by nature I'd like to celebrate the wonderful Wooleys Beach reserve at Crib Point.

Yesterday I wandered along the bush path, tall gums overhead, scented flowering shrubs and bushes with native grasses bordering the earthen path.

Magical, the sounds of birds chirruping and the air scented with native flora and sea breeze.

Minutes into my walk I glanced up to see a boobook owl pop its head out of a tree hollow, a few more steps and a big blue tongue lizard sunbathing on the path.

I started to really look around as I walked, two currawongs flew past, finches, parrots, honey eaters, native birds in profusion. Not one Indian minor.

I looked up, a koala waking from his midday snooze, further along an echidna digging up one of the many ant nests. Ant nests of every equation, tiny bush ants, honey ants and big, red bullants.

As I glanced down I saw a discarded snake skin, thankfully a sign of a recently departed renewed tiger snake.

All this wildlife flourishing in this fragmented tiny sliver of remnant native bush. Its own ecosystem layered with life.

With the recent over enthusiastic cutting down of trees and removal of native vegetation all over the peninsula, it is really important to educate people about what we are losing, one tree at a time.

I encourage everybody to visit Wooleys Beach to experience its beauty and wildlife. Possibly they will then be inspired to create a native wild-

life refuge in their own gardens.

Overhaul tax I think Australia’s tax system needs a complete overhaul.

The federal government could look at models in other countries like the United States and Singapore.

The states should be able to raise more tax instead of relying on handouts from Canberra.

The GST could be a state tax instead of a federal tax where each state is responsible for raising revenue from it and at a percentage they see fit and retain every dollar that is raised.

Of course, the percentage will be competitive to the other states so basically the same, like 12 or 15 per cent.

In the US the states are responsible for raising more tax than they do in Australia, including some income tax.

In Singapore the income tax is a low flat rate like 10 per cent but superannuation is 40 per cent which acts like a personal bank for such things as home loans.

I would like to see all stamp duty tax abolished to make way for a rise in GST and then maybe abolish capital gains tax, but that’s a federal tax.

While the tax system is being reformed the governments need to drive costs down as they seem to be spiralling out of control.

Patrick Geeves, Somerville

More effort needed Environment Minister Greg Hunt is trying to tell us how good Australia’s effort is for avoiding two degrees of global warming by the end of the century is. He sadly neglects to say that the target Australia has set for its CO2 emissions leaves the hard work to nations that can least afford it.

Australia’s 2030 target should be much closer to 60-70 per cent on 2000 emissions to be fair on a global scale. We should also be investing billions by financing underdeveloped nations to reach carbon neutrality. But under the Abbott government Australia reduced its foreign aid budget.

I hope Mr Hunt will follow up his proud pronouncement that Australia has been elected as co-chair of the Green Climate Fund with a hefty commitment to actually put some of the billions needed into this fund.

Planting trees under the direct action scheme is commendable, but will these trees be monitored for the carbon abatement they are supposed to create? Or is the whole scheme similarly unsupervised like the pink bats affair of a previous government.

If many of these trees are not reaching maturity because of our changed climate, will the parties responsible for accepting credits be held to account? Can Greg Hunt actually show how much carbon has been abated for real since hundreds of millions have been spent?

There is no reason to brag about Australia reaching its 2020 target, because it was so pathetic in the first place. Some of the drivers for reaching this target have actually been almost completely discontinued. The Carbon Tax and rooftop solar and wind power incentives were stymied by the previous prime minister because he believed global warming was crap. This all happened on our local MP Greg Hunt’s watch as Environment Minister.

Danger time While the build-up to Christmas is a busy period for every workplace, it should never be a dangerous one.

WorkSafe statistics show more Victorian workers die in the eight weeks leading up to Christmas than at any other time of the year.

We know that many businesses are rushing to finish projects so deadline pressures may be a factor. And we know that that many fatalities involve experienced workers doing routine jobs, particularly on farms. It only takes seconds for things to go very wrong, so carefully consider each job before starting.

The simple fact is that every workplace fatality is preventable. If employers have the safe systems in place to protect their workers, if people stop to plan each day with safety in mind, and if

Balnarring Picnic Racing Club everyone works together to identify and eliminate or reduce risks, then workplace fatalities can be prevented.

The upcoming Christmas holidays should be a time of joy. It should not be a time families are mourning the loss of a loved one who has died at work.

So please, everyone, take time every day to make workplace safety your absolute priority.

Marnie Williams, executive director of health and safety WorkSafe Victoria

Labor’s jobs loss Last week’s devastating data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) has clearly demonstrated yet again the Andrews Labor government’s bad habit of saying one thing and doing another.

One year ago Daniel Andrews said he would create 100,000 jobs within two years, but he has done nothing to create or sustain a single job, with 6600 full time jobs having been lost on the Mornington Peninsula alone.

The cancellation of the Port of Hastings development, along with the thousands of jobs it would have brought, while planning to again dredge Port Phillip and blast the Heads, the refusal to fund the Penbus or the Hastings submarine project and the cancellation of the restoration of Point Nepean Quarantine Station, are among the major blows this Labor government has already dealt to people in need of a job, and their families, on the peninsula.

Because the Andrews Labor government has only been interested in cancelling projects, such as the east west and airport links, and spending a billion dollars of taxpayer funds to do so, means that Daniel Andrews has not even tried to keep his promise on jobs to Victorians.

The only job creation scheme Daniel Andrews has actually implemented was when he paid Labor Party employees with taxpayer money to get himself elected as premier - a shameful and disgraceful abuse of trust.

This Labor government is demonstrating it will always put itself first and Victorians last.

Daniel Andrews and the Labor Party have demonstrated their contempt for the Mornington

Peninsula.

The Balnarring Picnic Racing Club will be holding their Christmas meeting on Saturday December 5. This is the meeting where many companies and family groups attend and have their staff & family Christmas parties in the beautiful grounds of the racecourse. Much work goes into preparing the grounds and course for the day and the following is just a small insight into what occurs before the racing commences. Michael Binney is a Vice President of the club and as track manager his race day commences well before the crowds arrive.

Queenie-style fun: Kelly Nash holds the floor.

Comedy in the RAW ENTERTAINERS RAWcollective are holding a “night of comedy and Christmas spirit, Queenie style”, 7pm Sunday 13 and Tuesday 15 December, Royal Hotel, Mornington.

The show, starring Kelly Nash, is designed for friends and work colleagues to celebrate the end of the year at the restored, historic hotel.

Dinner and show is $69. Book at: trybooking. com/JUFI. Details: ru@rawcollective.com.au or call 0421 012 191.

It is around six o clock in the morning at the Balnarring racecourse. As the light starts to lengthen over the racecourse, a lone horse gallops around the track with a former jockey on the horses back.

Having a horse gallop over the racecourse on the morning of the race meeting is a requirement of Racing Victoria. As the track manager my role is to get feedback from the rider as to what condition the track is in. After the gallop is completed, and over the preceding two days prior to the meeting some ninety readings have to be taken from given points around the track. These readings are taken with a device called the “Penetrometer.” Armed with all of the above information I then make an assessment of what rating the track shall be for the days racing. Once I have made my assessment of the track rating, I send that information to Racing Australia who must receive it by 7am. Every race club that race that day must comply with the regulations regarding track ratings.

The reason that the readings have to be submitted by 7am is for trainers to assess whether any horses they have racing that day will handle the track conditions. If they a trainer decides that the track condition may not suit there horse or its chance of winning, they can scratch the horse. But they the trainer is also bound by the rule that states, if they do not scratch the horses prior to 7.30 DP WKH\ PD\ LQFXU D ˉQH 7KLV DUWLFOH JLYHV \RX D ORRN EHKLQG WKH VFHQHV RI ZKDW KDV WR EH GRQH WR conduct a race meeting.

CRAFTED from West Australian sandstone, this magnificent rural-residential property combines the best of natural materials with a contemporary style and superb quality throughout. Enjoying a tranquil setting on about 6500 square metres in the always popular Kinfauns Estate, the home is set well back from the road privately ensconced amongst the trees. Wonderful timber decking features to all sides of the property which greatly increases the already considerable size of the home - there is also a four-car garage under the roof line - and certainly with the warmer months here will be an entertainerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s paradise on summer nights. A spectacular alfresco deck seamlessly

opens through concertina doors to a formal lounge which in itself is the true standout feature of the home. A massive sandstone wall dominates the room, with soaring cathedral ceilings and exposed beams equally majestic. Amongst the more contemporary stylings of the nearby dining, kitchen and family room, the rich spotted gum timbers used here create an amazing contrast that is absolutely breathtaking.

The kitchen is another design marvel, answering every storage need with a host of soft-close cupboards and drawers. Appliances include a stainless-steel oven, range hood and double-drawer dishwasher with servery windows opening out to the verandah and outdoor entertaining area.

Three bedrooms all have built-in robes and share the main bathroom with spa bath, and a powder room. A separate study could be a fifth bedroom if required. The upstairs zone is a superb retreat for parents with an enormous main bedroom enjoying a private balcony which overlooks the property, a walk-in robe and the splendid ensuite has a frameless walk-in shower, twin vanities and a spa bath.

There is a healthy amount of lawn area around the home for children and pets to really enjoy themselves and lowmaintenance landscaping to the front of the home includes native grasses and palm trees, with one particularly large palm tree a great focal point as you enter the property.

Diabetes and your hearing ACCORDING to Diabetes Australia, 280 Australians develop diabetes every day. That is one person every five minutes.

Diabetes is a chronic condition that occurs when glucose (sugar) in the blood is too high.

Glucose is an important form of energy for our body and cells. There is elevated blood glucose levels when the body does not produce enough of the hormone insulin, or the insulin does not work effectively. Diabetes can be managed well, however, poorly controlled diabetes can lead to a range of serious health problems such as: heart attack, stroke, kidney damage, eye damage, limb amputation, and depression.

Recent research has shown that hearing loss is another complication of diabetes. As the high levels of glucose in the blood travels throughout the body, damage can occur to the nerves and blood vessels of the inner ear. It has been shown that hearing loss is approximately twice as common in adults with diabetes compared to those who do not have diabetes.

Diabetes can affect the whole range of the

hearing but predominantly the higher pitches of sound, which makes it more difficult to hear clearly in the presence of background noise.

Consequently, it is important to have your hearing checked should you have diabetes or pre-diabetes (a condition where blood glucose levels are higher than normal, which increases a person’s risk of developing diabetes).

Along with eating well and staying physically active to manage your diabetes, it is also important to monitor the health of your ears. At Stay Tuned Hearing, we will provide you with a comprehensive hearing assessment to obtain a baseline result which we can use to monitor your hearing to detect any changes. Early detection of hearing loss will allow for prompt treatment and rehabilitation if necessary. A written report will also be sent to your General Practitioner to monitor your hearing health.

If you have any questions please contact us on 03 9708 8626. A few minutes of your time could save your hearing forever.

Compiled by Melissa Walsh ON and after 1st inst, the morning mail for Melbourne will close at 9.15 a.m, in lieu of 7.55 a.m. *** MESSRS Brody and Mason will hold a clearing sale at the Mechanics’ Institute, Mornington on Friday next of household furnishings in the assigned estate of Mrs A. E. Bell. *** THE “Wattle,” Club will hold a euchre party and dance in aid of the Wounded Soldiers’ fund, in the Frankston Mechanics’ Hall on Saturday 11th inst. Good prizes will be given to the successful players and at the conclusion of the play a short dance will be held. *** THE Archbishop of Melbourne will be in Frankston on Thursday evening next, when a Confirmation service will be held at ten minutes past eight at St Paul’s Church. Candidates for Confirmation will be presented by Rev G. A. Kitchen, Vicar of Frankston and Rev R. H. L. Croker, Vicar of Aspendale. *** MESSRS Alex Scott and Co will hold their monthly sale at Tanti on Monday next, when they will have a big yarding of stock. At the same time they will offer for sale on liberal terms the farm of Mr A. Jacobs, situated two miles from Mornington, on the corner of Hastings and Balnarring road, containing about 12¾ acres. *** THE opening of the tennis season was celebrated at Somerville on Saturday last, when a team from the Naval Base engaged the local players.

After an enjoyable afternoon’s sport, victory rested with the home team. Refreshments were provided for the visitors and public by Mr G. Keast, who has been re-elected to the position of President of the Somerville Club. *** AT a public meeting held at Mordialloc during the week, Cr. White presiding, it was resolved to make an effort to give the soldiers at Langwarrin Camp a Xmas treat. A strong committee was formed, and £30 was collected at the meeting.

Mrs Coyle was deputed to act as organiser and collector at Frankston, and she will be pleased to receive donations in cash or kind, which will be acknowledged through these columns.

Five pounds has already been collected to date.

We expect a liberal response to such an appeal. *** The wedding of Mr William Herbert (Paddy) Gomm, ‘”Glenboya” Somerville, to Jean, eldest daughter of the late William Firth and Mrs Firth, “Orkney Farm”, Somerville, was quietly celebrated at St Auselm’s Church of England, Middle Park, on November 20th, the Rev A. P. McFarlane being the officiating clergyman.

After the ceremony the party motored to the residence of Mrs J. D.Graf’s “Arundel”, Bloomfield road, Ascot Vale (sister of the bridegroom) where the wedding breakfast was partaken of, and a very enjoyable time was spent, the happy couple left later for a short honeymoon. *** AT the conclusion of the business of the Frankston and Hastings Shire Council on Thursday, Driver A. G. Young, who is at present on a furlough after having served some fifteen months at the front, received a warm welcome from the President and Councillors assembled.

Congratulatory remarks were made on his return and hopes expressed that he would soon be fully restored to health. Driver Young, in responding, thanked the Crs for the unexpected honor they had conferred upon him, and said that as soon as he was fit he was prepared to

resume his duties at the front. *** THE following is a report of a combined meeting of the Tyabb ladies Red Cross branch, with A. N. A. committee, forwarded to us by the secretary: —At the invitation of the Combined Picnic and A.N A. day committee, the Tyabb Ladies Red Cross branch met them in conference on Friday night, 26th ultimo.

It was extremely gratifying to the combined committee to note the intense interest taken by the ladies in the doings of the committee, by such a large attendance. The chairman, on opening the meeting, gave a short, descriptive account of the doings and future aims of the committee, and in his concluding remarks called for suggestions from the ladies as to the most fitting way they thought they could help best on A.N.A. day.

After a general conversation it was finally decided that a Grand Fete should be held on the recreation ground on A.N.A. day, that the ladies would supervise the stalls, and other special items of interest, while the gentlemen carried out a programme of amusing competitions within the arena. *** THE usual good attendance was again present at the Red Cross social, on the 19th ult. The fund will benefit to the extent of over £3. The sum of £2 11s was also raised by raffling a handsome home-made cosy, and a bottle of champagne, both gifts of Mrs L. Nichol.

Mr H. Simcock, of Somerville, succeeded in winning the champagne, and Miss E. Hollier the cosy. This local branch has received a free roll of flannel, valued at £3 12s from the Central Depot, for having purchased a like amount during November.

Up to the present the ladies have been making up two of these rolls into garments each month.

Up to the present time very little progress has been made by the fruitgrowers’ association towards taking over the Government Cool Stores.

The committee found that there are many problems to be faced, and that some consideration is necessary before taking the last step. *** REFERENCE was recently made in “The Age” to a family of seven sons, all of whom were enlisted for active service. This record has now been equalled by the family of Mrs Fisher, of Newell street, Footscray, who also has seven sons serving in the Expeditionary Force.

Brigadier-General R. E. Williams, State Commandant, stated on Thursday that he had received the following particulars with regard to the family. The names of the seven sons were as follows:—Sergeant-Major E. Fisher, D.C.M., who also saw service in South Africa; Lieutenant W. Fisher, of Frankston, twice wounded at the Dardenelles; Sergeant T. J. Fisher, wounded at the Dardenelles; Sergeant-Major T. R. Fisher; Corporal M. J. Fisher, killed in action at the Dardenelles ; Private G. Fisher, and Private Eli Fisher. The record is a particularly fine one, in as much as that in a family of seven sons one holds commissioned rank, and no fewer than four are non- commissioned officers. *** DANDENONG Market. Monday, Nov 30th.

Alex. Scott and Co., report:— A large number of milkers and springers forward and prices were again firmer. Milkers from £9 2s 6d to £17 10. Springers from £10 to £22, store cattle, heavy yarding and prices about the same. *** From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 4 December, 1915

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

The unbearable lightness of being an idiot

By Stuart McCullough PITY the youth. Once you could be young and behave like a complete twerp and (relatively speaking) very few people would know about it. It was all part of growing up. You could do or say something irretrievably stupid, make a total goose of yourself and learn something from the experience.

With any luck, these missteps might even make you a better person. The rules, however, have changed. Now we have the Internet and all kinds of social media and the means by which to make a huge spanner of yourself in front of a vast audience have never been more accessible.

A few weeks ago, a private school student succeeded in humiliating himself by making some stupid comments on Facebook. In short, he lorded it over his fellow students solely because he’d attended a private school.

He even went so far as to thank his parents for having the vision to send him to such a prestigious educational institution before imploring fellow students to say ‘hi’ to him one day in the future, when he’s their boss. Not so very long ago, if such thoughts had been expressed aloud, they’d have been greeted with incredulity, some name-calling and an atomic wedgie.

But it doesn’t work like that anymore.

Nowadays, being an adolescent who acts like a dill isn’t something done in comparative private. Rather, it can now land you on the front page of a major metropolitan newspaper. That, in turn, means a whole bunch of people who are older and, at least in theory, wiser will make comments about

your stupid comments that are, themselves, teetering dangerously towards being silly. The resulting maelstrom of absurdity that followed was a sight (and sound) to behold.

I wouldn’t call it a ‘controversy’ as such. More a brouhaha of epic proportions (and if anything deserves

the mantle of ‘brouhaha’, it’s this).

As I drove home from work, the repercussions of ‘Twerp-Gate’ were everywhere on the radio. People were ringing in, aching to pass judgment on the school kid responsible for these ill-considered remarks. Many could not contain their fury, treating the

Facebook remarks less like the ramblings of teenager on social media and more like a declaration of class war.

Had both tar and feathers been readily available, doubtless many of them would gladly have metered out their own brand of rough justice.

But it wasn’t just ordinary punters ringing in to vent their fury. Columnists wasted precious ink by providing detailed analyses of the Facebook comments and pontificating at length about what such comments meant about our society as a whole; the conflict between public and private education and how such remarks pose a threat to our broader social cohesion.

All of it was nonsense. It’s worth remembering that the people writing these profoundly stupid things are paid professionals. The child responsible for the Facebook post was merely an amateur.

As the talkback frenzy continued, I couldn’t help but wonder what it all meant. Plainly, there were some obvious lessons to be learned; chief among them being that the time has come to abolish talk back radio altogether given that it has so plainly outlived its usefulness. It’s also clear that ‘outrage’ is now a form of entertainment all by itself. Worst of all, it now seems that the space left for young people to make mistakes without being pilloried by a bunch of adults frothing at the mouth has been vastly reduced.

After several days that made the Salem Witch Trials look like a minor misunderstanding in comparison, I began to reflect upon the many, many stupid things I did as a teenager. To take but one example of my youthful

exuberance gone horribly awry, for several years I sported a ponytail. I also had acid wash jeans, boots with buckles and earrings. No, really. I must have looked like a nerdy pirate.

If that doesn’t deserve an entire afternoon of calls to the wireless, I don’t know what does. And yet, these atrocities were not front-page news. I was allowed to be a bit of an idiot until I figured things out for myself.

Let me be blunt; the Facebook post was arrogant and silly. His peers told him so. In fact, the other students on the page held him accountable. That’s probably as it should be. Being young is a fragile thing. Humiliation is an inevitable part of growing up and it’s how you figure out where the boundaries are. I suspect that many of the outraged hoards pictured this young person basking in the controversy whilst luxuriating in a castle, sitting on an iron throne and stroking a bald cat whilst planning world domination.

I very much doubt it.

I suspect that the teenager, his parents and the school involved were all embarrassed. A little embarrassment can be a good thing, but it’s important to keep a sense of proportion. Upon reflection, maybe I should have called talkback radio. Perhaps even written a letter to the editor. If I were more technologically capable, I might even have gone onto Facebook. I wouldn’t have posted a rambling message of support. Just a photo. Of me as a teenager, complete with ponytail, earrings, boots and acid wash jeans. That, I feel, would have been enough. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

THE TEA PARTY’S JEFF MARTIN SET TO TAKE FRANKSTON BY STORM

By Andrew Dixon Few rock bands exude a musical culture born of global influence with the finesse and polish of The Tea Party. 1.6 million albums sold worldwide under EMI and a cult Australian following are testament to that. The Canadian rockers took an extended break in 2005 but have come back with a vengeance, touring extensively in Australia and Canada and even releasing a new album since reforming in 2011. Frontman Jeff Martin now calls Australia home, having built a secluded musical retreat on 100 acres just outside of Byron Bay. He calls his new rural studio ‘Riverhouse’.

“My roots are here now. It’s a very spiritual place, and a big part of my creativity,” Martin explains. It’s the birthplace of their latest album The Ocean at the End; a quiet place “with no clock on the wall” that’ll serve as a base for The Tea Party’s song writing efforts going forward.

Moonlighting as a producer, Martin’s role with The Tea Party is two-fold. “Most of the time I’ll present a musical schematic to the band – a little riff, some lyrics, or something like that… and then as a producer, it’s like an architect going back to the first drawings after the building’s complete.” Without it, they just couldn’t have maintained their signature sound – this level of creative control is a rare gift for the eclectic musicians, from writing through to production. “The friendship that exists between the three of us, the longevity of the relationship going back to when we were five or six years old, that vast expanse of musical influence… it would be very hard to understand if you hadn’t been a part of it all along.

You’d have to have a pretty vast musical encyclopedia!”

“In the 90s I had a beautiful home in old Montreal… it’s where we created The Edges of Twilight and Transmission.

Riverhouse reminds us of those wonderful times, where we were free to explore. The proof was in the pudding… this house provides the same thing. It’s pretty exciting to think of what might come in the next few years.”

They were trying times, both professionally and personally. “I wasn’t happy, I stopped looking after myself…

I needed a break. I needed to find the reason for making music again, and my years in Ireland did that for me.” He describes a literal “addiction” to the band’s music, being “so much greater” than the sum of its parts. “In the years that the three of us were apart, what seemed like insurmountable differences began to look quite petty… it wasn’t about money or fame or anything like that – the power of the music that The Tea Party makes was something we just couldn’t stay away from.”

Rather than jumping back into bed with EMI, the band’s currently making arrangements with a new label. “The three of us are concentrating on getting new music out there, celebrating it with the fans and doing some touring.

We’re not the type of band to rest on our laurels, but watch this space!”

In the meantime, the Jeff Martin will be getting back to his musical roots, revisiting the classic acoustic sound he mentioned for the pending Victorian tour. He’ll be appearing at Pier Live in Frankston for the southern leg, with other dates scheduled all over the state. “After the big, beautiful monster that The Tea Party is, I’m really looking forward to it!”

Having recently completed The Edges of Twilight re-release tour on the big stages with the band, Jeff’s acoustic gigs will provide some contrast – more intimate venues and a spiritual edge, but the same stellar tracks and hypnotic voice oozing tranquillity and soul.

Make sure you catch Jeff Martin at Pier Live in Frankston on Friday 11 December. Tickets from the venue (call 9783 9800) or www.moshtix.com.au

MOR

Not all bands manage to come back from such an extended hiatus. Fed up with the way The Tea Party was being handled, Martin left the band and Canada for the rolling plains of Ireland, where he

rediscovered his love for acoustic guitar.

It’s where he raised his first kid, Jacob, and developed that 20/20 hindsight used to look back and see just what a powerful force the music of The Tea Party was for them all. “Things were changing at EMI. Everyone’s record sales were down, especially in rock music, and the record companies were scrambling… it became a case of too many cooks in the kitchen.”

Mounties in more strife PROVINCIAL

By IT Gully Mt Eliza’s season went from bad to worse on Saturday, being bowled out for 121 against Long Island. Languishing just above Rye at the bottom of the ladder, the Mounties’ top order were brittle as the team slumped to 6/35. Nick Baron (26), Matt Travena (26) and Jordan Fuhrmann (22) were the only batsmen to break 20, while skipper Justin Grant again failed with the bat, making just 12 runs.

Long Island’s opening bowlers

Scott Phillips and Andrew Tweddle were superb as usual. ‘Flippa’ bowled 21 overs and finished with sensational figures of 4/26, including 11 maidens.

Tweddle was equally as impressive, claiming 4/44 from 21 overs. Long Island faced the last seven overs of the day and were 0/16 at stumps.

The Peninsula Old Boys have already picked up the win against Pines. The Piners batted first on Saturday at the Peninsula School and were bowled out for just 87. Jarred Coad top scored for Pines with 32.

Adam Gailitis and Zac Fillipone were firmly in control with the ball for the Old Boys, with three and six wickets respectively. In reply, POB went for quick runs and batted for 34 overs, netting 7/104 before declaring and sending Pines back in. They’ll resume at 2/52.

Crib Point is in a commanding position in its match against Langwarrin. The Magpies batted first and were in some early trouble, before Luke Herrington (49) and Matt Blake (80) took control. Henry Dol-

phin also contributed 33. Daniel Bray returned to the First XI for the Kangas and snared 4/56, while skipper Travis Campbell got some early breakthroughs and picked up 4/62. In reply, Langwarrin is 1/4 with opener Simon McEvoy back in the sheds.

Baxter has set Sorrento a sizable task in their clash of titans. Daniel Warwick was back in the First IX and helped himself to 65, while Ben Metters scored 48 and Dale Irving 47.

Chris King was the pick of the Sorrento bowlers, with 5/79. Sorrento

now sits at 1/14.

Moorooduc has already beaten Rye. The Demons again failed to get to 100, such is their lack of confidence right now. Adam Bayly picked up 5/6 off 12 overs for the Ducs, including a devastating spell of 4/0. In reply, Mooroduc faced the final 36 overs of the day and finished on 4/98.

Ben Williams opened the batting with 52.

Mornington has left Somerville with some work to do after making 242.

Lions being tamed

DISTRICT

By IT Gully CARRUM is in a world of pain as it enters the second day of its match against Flinders. After bowling out Flinders for 227, Carrum slumped, scoring an ordinary 4/29 after facing the final 14 overs of the day.

Boom recruit and skipper Andy Johnson again failed with the bat, caught by Simon Parrott off the bowling of Matt Burns for a blob.

Johnson has just 54 runs in four hits for the season.

Fellow recruit Jake D’Atri was also removed without troubling the scorers – his side was reeling when Shaun Foster – as usual – came to the rescue, hitting 18 runs to stop the carnage. Dwayne Field finished the day for the Sharks, bowling an impressive 2/0. Burns finished with 2/9.

Earlier in the day, the bottom order did the job for Flinders after they too found strife early at 5/47. Shane Beggs hit 49, Blake HoganKeogh 36 and Max Royal 47 to bring the home side 227 runs in 65.3 overs. Timmy Clements also scored a respectable 32. Liam Dobson was the best of the Carrum bowlers, with 4/51.

Mt Martha, despite scoring just 142 against Pearcedale, has a reasonable prospect of victory at the close of day one. The Reds batted first and made 142, with Jake Smart producing what we have come to expect with 71.

The talented Sam Frawley stepped up to the plate for the Panthers and picked up 5/23, while ‘Mr Consistent’ Shayne Gillings claimed 2/24. The Reds needed to produce something special with the ball, and they did.

Curtis Stone claimed 2/6 from eight overs to have Pearcedale 4/39. Chris Dew and Gillings are the not-

out batsmen, while Shane Maggs is not playing in this game.

Boneo has set Main Ridge a massive target of 294 for victory after making their highest score (8/293) for some time.

The Baden Powell juggernaut continues after the home side belted 7/314 against Delacombe Park.

The Braves are sky high on confidence right now, and Tom Wood has been a sensation. He was right amongst the runs again on Saturday, scoring a clean century. It was his first three-figure performance for the year, having hit 78, 84, 7 and 79.

Wood has 432 runs for the season, including 55 in the Jack Peacock Cup. Fellow opener Nathan Cassano was cruising to three figures too before being run out on 69.

Rhys Elmi joined the action with 61, while Elias Carter was out in force with 45.

Red Hill is cruising to victory against the Seaford Tigers, who were rolled for 130. Glenn Collett headlined the Hillmen attack with 3/30, while Lincoln Toy claimed 3/30 to give him 13 wickets for the season. Mattty Meagher topscored for the Tigers with 40 runs. In reply, the Hillmen are 0/59 from 22 overs.

Heatherhill has set Seaford a target of 176 for victory. The Hills batted first with Kristian Miller at it again, scoring 54. Christian Heath supported him well with 48, but Faisal Payenda was the pick of the Seaford bowlers with 4/45. Seaford is now 1/6.

Whelan show comes to town SUB-DISTRICT

By IT Gully TOOTGAROOKâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S Matthew Whelan can do anything on a cricket field. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s extremely talented and his best is as good as weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen. On Saturday against Skye, Whelan strode to the crease with his side in a spot of bother at 2/37, but left the ground with the team score at 301. Whelan had 174 next to his name.

Together with Travis French, who scored 80, Whelan dominated the Skye attack and set the side up for a solid victory after completing 80 overs on 9/327. Pat Clinch picked up three wickets for Skye.

Frankston YCW made tough work of batting their 80 overs against Dromana, scoring just over two runs an over to finish at 7/169. Jack Greenwood opened with 37 and Levi McLoughlin-Dore made 58 batting seventh to help the home side see out their overs. Aaron Kaddatz was the best of the Dromana bowlers with 2/17 from 13 overs.

Hastings is less than 50 runs short of victory, with eight wickets in hand after dominating day one of their match against Balnarring at Thomas Barclay Reserve. Balnarring were bowled out for just 93, Tim Birch dominating with the ball for the Blues, claiming 4/16 from 20 overs and Luke Hewitt 3/26 from 18 overs. Isuru Dias chimed in at the end with 2/3 from 5.2 overs. In reply, Hastings lost their openers with a mere 12 runs, before talking control and finishing on 2/52.

A 100-plus partnership between Pete Doughty and Matt Maher has Rosebud in a strong position against Ballam Park. The Knights will chase 243 for victory after Rosebud made 6/242, coming back from 6/137.

Victory in sight: Hastings are less than 50 runs short of victory in their match against Balnarring. Picture: Andrew Hurst

Motoring Live radio broadcast celebrates Alfa Romeo launch HEAD on down to Mornington Park this Thursday and see 3AW’s Neil Mitchell broadcast live, thanks to Bayside Alfa Romeo. He’ll be there from 8.30 through until midday, talking about the issues facing Melbourne and the country, as well as drawing the winner of “Neil’s Valuable Player” from a pool of weekly winners throughout the year.

“Neil’s a doyenne of news broadcasters and he will be broadcasting from Mornington Park. It’ll be great for Mornington and great for the Peninsula – a unique event for locals and car enthusiasts alike”, says Brad Fitzsimmons from Bayside Automotove Group.

“Plus we’re going to see someone drive away in a $30,000-plus Alfa Romeo Julietta.”

Neil Mitchell will also be unveiling the Alfa Romeo 4C Spider – the vehicle’s Australian debut. “The 4C’s obviously a very unique car, there’s

about 100 in Australia, but this is the first Spider that’s been seen!”

Each week the winner of “Neil’s Valuable Player” gets to drive an Alfa Romeo for the weekend, and goes into the draw to win the Guillietta at the end of the year.

“This will be the second one given away through Neil Mitchell and 3AW. It’ll be a live broadcast this year, so it’s sure to be an exciting event.

There’ll be coffee and food available on site, and the Alfa Romeo car club will be out in force, no doubt bringing a host of restored classic with them,” says Brad.

“The car club could bring anything!

It’s going to be a really fun event and really sums up the unique nature of Alfa Romeo – it’s not a car, it’s an Alfa Romeo!”

Brad’s going to be there too, no doubt fielding questions about the new 4C Spider. He might even be taking orders!
