Tuning into improvisation
Picture: Yanni
IMPROVISATION has transformed the way composer and performer Anne Norman thinks and feels about music. The internationally renowned shakuhachi player (a type of Japanese flute) is co-running musical improvisation workshops this month and next. Participants will step into the unknown in the acoustic series for strings, wind, percussion, keyboard and voice. A classically trained musician, Norman says she played and wrote music for decades before discovering the freedom of improvisation following a change in life circumstances. “I started working with actors and dancers and, in creating music for them, I found I could use their bodies as my score, and it was really liberating,” she said. Windows opened up and Norman delved further into the world of music improvisation, studying techniques and honing her skills to better respond to sound and visual cues. Norman says improvised music allows for self-expression and fosters a strong, creative relationship between musician and instrument. “It can be incredibly exciting when you are in free impro mode with another artist and you both move in the same direction at the same time,” she said. “It also enhances your listening skills and your awareness of the other. It can actually be quite mystical at times.” The workshops will be held by Norman and musician Paol Grage from the Mornington Improv Collective. The $30 a session workshops subsidised by Mornington Peninsula Shire Council are for skilled musicians who want to try musical improvisation will be held at Saint Marks Uniting Church, Mornington, from 7pm on Wednesday 28 February and 6, 13, 20 and 27 March.

Wards new names, new boundaries Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au NEW boundaries and nine new names have been announced for 11 singlecouncillor wards on the Mornington Peninsula. The changes will be used in the October council elections and replace the existing six wards, three of which have more than one councillor. The names of the shire’s 11 wards are Beek Beek, Benbenjie, Briars, Brokil, Coolart, Kackeraboite, Moorooduc, Nepean, Tanti, Tootgarook and Warringine. Briars and Nepean are the only
existing wards to retain their names, although each will be reduced in size and represented by one councillor. Briars ward currently has three councillors and Nepean two. The panel rejected changing Briars to Tichingorourke Ward and Nepean to Monmar. Ward names to be dropped are Cerberus, Red Hill, Seawinds and Watson. Six of the new ward names were on a list of 15 suggested by the shire. The changes to the municipal structure were announced in a December report by a three-person electoral structure review panel appointed last year by the Local Government Minis-
ter Melissa Horne. The panel said it decided the peninsula should continue to be represented by 11 councillors after considering the size and shape of wards along with the number of candidates who had contested past elections, incidences of uncontested elections and rates of informal voting. The panel said it had suggested Aboriginal ward names if it was the name of a place within a ward; the name was commonly used; and if it was registered under the Geographic Place Names Act 1998. The report said Cr Steve Holland had told a panel hearing last November that he believed reducing
the number of councillors from 11 to nine would save money and “allow equitable representation” throughout the shire. The panel said it found “no justifiable benefits in any nine singlecouncillor ward models to offset this increased [councillor] workload”. However, the panel had “agreed with the suggestion made by Cr Holland to simplify the names of wards based on significant features within wards”. Along with the new ward names and boundaries have come claims that the results may be subject to gerrymander, or manipulation, by political parties. “The result is a gerrymander be-
cause it is not based on the democratic, well established in Australia, system of only having a plus or minus deviation of 10 per cent to keep electoral areas as close as possible to even numbers,” Red Hill Ward’s Cr David Gill said. “My geographical area went up by nearly 10 per cent. It was 50 per cent of the shire, it’s now 60 per cent. “I believe only having [the local governmenr minister] in charge of electoral boundaries for local government leads to the possibility of the first political gerrymander in Australian history.” Aboriginal name for youth hub.

‘Potter’ prepares for new ‘stage’ Candidates urged to Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au IT appears to be business as usual for the teams behind the Harry Potter: A Forbidden Forest Experience event in April, with organisers pivoting quickly to focus on the new site at The Briars community forest dog park. Signs on the gate block people from using the dog park so that infrastructure upgrades and decorative installations can be completed by the event’s start on 6 April. The advertising spin of the event remains unchanged, tempting audiences with the line that it will be a “nighttime woodland trail experience filled with magical creatures and wizarding wonders from the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts films”. Apart from the deal not yet being sealed by an official letter from Warner Bros confirming the site change, those opposed to the wildlife sanctuary being originally chosen as the event site are celebrating the organisers’ change of heart. The site change was prompted by a global backlash that threatened to harm the Harry Potter brand and was enough for global entertainment giants Warners Bros and Fever Entertainment to rethink their choice - with approval from Mornington Peninsula Shire - of using a wildlife sanctuary. Community group Save Briars Sanctuary (SBS) was behind a national and international protest campaign calling on organisers to relocate the event away from the sanctuary.

Its petition attracted more than 22,000 signatures and the campaign gained support from the political parties, environmental groups and wildlife carers, in Australia and abroad, and the group wrote directly to Warner Bros. In a welcome move, on 8 February the group received an email from the senior vice-president of Warner Bros. Discovery Global Themed Entertainment, Peter van Roden, saying the companies were “reevaluating the current location of Harry Potter: A Forbidden Forest Experience in The Briars at Mount Martha”. The council then scheduled an extraordinary meeting to inform the community of the “joint” decision to relocate the event to the community forest dog park within The Briars. Responding to a question during the meeting by Cr Sarah Race about the “very big dog community” on
the peninsula, CEO John Baker said dog walkers would be accommodated at the public golf course in Mount Martha during the Harry Potter event, and “other dog walking” options were being investigated. A release from Save Briars Sanctuary stated: “The decision to relocate Harry Potter is a significant achievement and we are relieved that the wildlife will now be safe. “However, the seeming lack of scrutiny when approving the largest event in the history of the Mornington Peninsula is alarming. Especially when the location is a special and precious ecosystem. Our wildlife should never be put at risk for profit.” A spokesperson for the group said it was looking forward to the shire’s promised review of its processes and hoped that the shire “engages with the community during and after the examination”.
back Peninsula Trail THE Mornington Community Safelink Group is calling on Dunkley by-election candidates to commit to financing a safe connection between Frankston and Mornington. Convenor Graeme Rocke said that with more people walking and riding, the “critical missing link” of the Peninsula Trail which fell partly in the Dunkley electorate, would provide a connection to the peninsula for all residents of Dunkley and Melbourne’s southeast. Eight candidates are the contesting the Saturday 2 March by-election being held to fill the vacancy created by the death last December of Labor’s Peta Murphy (Eight line up for Dunkley, The News 13/2/24). Mornington Peninsula Shire Council recently released for public comment a draft of its strategic plan for the Peninsula Trail which identifies this section as being of its highest priority. The Peninsula Trail is council’s plan for a set of connected walking and riding paths that proponents hope will become one of Australia’s destinations for active travel and transport. Rocke said the Mornington Community Safelink Group supported the council plan. “At the last federal election the coalition recognised the value of this shared path and committed $5 million dollars to it, if re-elected. We are now
calling on both parties to recognise the priority the community places on this local project, and make a commitment,” he said. “The Safelink is consistent with the state government’s draft Frankston to Mornington Parklands Plan and, if developed in conjunction with both the existing steam railway and the potential of the area to create a green natural corridor, could become one of the peninsula’s major year round community assets.” The CEO of the Committee for Frankston & Mornington Peninsula, Josh Sinclair, said the project had strong community and local government support. “It’s a no brainer. This project would help connect the peninsula’s trail of networks, creating a worldwide cycling and walking network attracting visitors from across Australia,” he said. “Having better connected and healthy communities is a core pillar of local government and the committee, and this project should be a priority for the incoming federal member for Dunkley.” For details of the project go to mornpen.vic.gov.au/About-Us/Advocacy/Peninsula-Trail To comment go to shape.mornpen. vic.gov.au/a-strategic-plan-for-peninsula-trails Liz Bell Candidates’ have their say.

Keeping busy with living after grief Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au SOMETHING almost magical is happening every month at Bentons Square Community Centre, and it’s transforming the lives of people who are grieving. A support group called Projex J and its three-word transformative and inspirational motto Get busy living, is giving people trapped in a cycle of sadness and despair a way to move forward. The trailblazing support group that welcomes people of all ages and backgrounds to come together to share their stories or simply listen, is the brainchild of Chantelle Ross, whose 23-year-old son Jamerson was killed in a road incident in Hastings in 2022. It’s that lived experience that partly makes Ross connect so well with others on the grief journey – whether it’s through the loss of a loved one through death or divorce, or the loss of a part of a life that is forever gone. Just three months after her son died, and despite drowning in the immense loss and hopelessness she felt, Ross got busy living and focussed on instigating change in the therapy and grief space. She started an annual fishing competition in her son’s name at Hastings to raise awareness and help finance an inspirational therapy group Projex J, a service she started to provide affordable counselling and support to

those in need. “What I found when I needed help to work through my grief and pain was that therapy was expensive and not accessible to everyone so, with the help of Bentons Square Community Centre, I started a therapy/support group myself,” she said. The group was almost instantly successful, partly because of Ross’s endearingly open, honest and welcom-
ing approach, and partly because it is filling a desperate need for community-based grief support. “We have met so many incredible people who have been suffering silently with their grief, unheard,” she said. “Some of them come along reluctantly after months or even years unable to find release or even talk about their struggles, but they always get something out of these sessions
and they come back.” Ross said it was well known among psychologists that talking and sharing was often the best way to work through personal pain, and a great way to exorcise the demons of loss and suffering. “People who come to the sessions experience beautiful connections with others, just through sharing and the realisation that they are not alone,
everyone in the room understands and relates to them,” she said. “It’s support, it’s validation of your feelings, it’s being part of something that’s bigger.” The sessions will often include guest speakers, such as Mornington Peninsula psychologist Ruth Chatwin and clinical hypnotherapist and meditation teacher Jan Winslade. There are also occasional art sessions where people in grief can explore creativity as a form of therapy. “We recognise that dealing with loss is not a one size fits all approach, so we look at all types of support and therapies, and people can find what suits and works for them,” Ross said. The sessions were structured according to the need and “mood” of the room, and there was no set agenda or schedule she felt obligated to follow. “But, always at the end of our sessions, people are lighter and happier. They may have had nowhere to put their grief, nowhere to put it in perspective and share, and it’s a lifeline for them,” Ross said. “I’d love to make this kind of support and affordable counselling available to everyone, we are looking to going Victoria wide, and maybe more, there is such a need.” Projex J has also applied for notfor-profit status so it can raise money and provide more targeted grief support to the wider community. Sessions run on the first Wednesday of each month at Bentons Square Community Centre, 5.30pm to 6.30pm. For details call Chantelle Ross on 0419 661 215.

Aboriginal name for youth hub THE release of the mainly Aboriginal names for Mornington Peninsula Shire’s 11 wards coincides with public approval being sought to name the “brand new Southern Peninsula Youth Hub in Rosebud”, Tounnin Wominjeka. The shire says it decided to use “traditional owner language” for the name after feedback from young people interacting with its youth services department and consulting with the Bunurong Land Council Aboriginal Corporation (Aboriginal names for $13m youth hub, The News 13/1/24). The land council had suggested three suitable names and the shire had since “engaged” with more than 360 young people, with most voting for Tounnin Wominjeka.

JPs on hand to meet demand MORE Justice of the Peace services will be provided at Rosebud and Rye. Volunteer JP coordinator Kit Hauptmann said JP hours would be extended at Rosebud police station and a new service to start at the Rye Community House. Hauptmann said that starting in March there would be JPs at the Rosebud police station for an extra two hours from 4pm to 6pm on the second and fourth Tuesday of each month. The new JP signing service would begin at Rye Community House from 11.30am to 1.30pm on the first Friday of each month. “Our current commitment of three
hours, two days a week, Monday and Thursday from 11am to 2pm, at the Rosebud police station still stands,” Hauptmann said. Hauptmann said it was essential that in today’s hectic, device-dominated lives that a justice of the peace was available at a known, regularly staffed, accessible venue to help people deal with the large volume of paperwork that must be witnessed and signed in a timely and efficient manner. “The additional lunch time hours at Rye will be an advantage to citizens whom, for many reasons, may not wish to go to a police station signing centre.”

Surveys show ‘eco-anxiety’ over climate change fears A SURVEY of 8800 of people aged 15 to 19 has found that those concerned about climate change were more likely to have higher psychological distress and “low wellbeing”. Mission Australia, youth organisation Orygen and academics at the University of Melbourne rated their mental health as "poor or fair". Youth mental health provider Headspace reported similar results after surveying more than 3000 18 to 25 year olds. The respondents were increasingly worried about their future, concerned that they would not have the same options that their parents had and would like to see more action taken on the challenge of climate change. Peninsula Voice says “eco-anxiety”, the fear and stress felt about climate change, is being worsened by repeated natural disasters and plans to “shine a light” on the issue during its 29 February event, Climate Change – our home, our future. “Topics like bushfires and floods, temperature and sea level rises, damage to our native flora and fauna are confronting us daily, but there’s less talk about what is being done to address it,” Peninsula Voice convenor Peter Orton said. “Anxiety eases when we take action, so we want to provide this hope to our community by sharing stories of local initiatives.” The event would see experts in climate change and human health share the latest evidence of the global and local picture and the efforts being made to address climate change “and the steps we can all take to make a difference”. Orton said the work of 19-year-old Sam Lundberg, who lives on the peninsula, was “a really good example”. Lundberg volunteered with Zero Positive, a
SAM Lundberg non-profit youth organisation that led initiatives to guide Australian schools towards emission neutrality while fostering positive mental attitudes towards climate action. “He’s currently working with Peninsula Grammar on a five-year plan to become emissions neutral and is also chairing the Melbourne branch for Zero Positive’s subsidiary GenZero, a youth climate advisory board.” Other speakers include Melbourne University Professor David Karoly (Climate Change on a global front) and Monash University Associate Professor Angie Bone (Climate Change and human health). “We’ll also hear from Repower and local action to reduce carbon emissions and the climate change team from Mornington Peninsula Shire Council,” Orton said.

OPINION
‘Multi-port’ option to keep Hastings in wind terminal loop By Josh Sinclair* AS many of us enjoyed our summer holiday, a small parcel of reclaimed land inside Western Port made national headlines. Situated between a major steel manufacturer and the Long Island Point gas plant is the reclaimed land foreshadowed by the state government as the home to the Victorian Renewable Energy Terminal. The federal government’s recent intervention to halt the project has created uncertainty for the region and the offshore wind industry. However, given the sensitive environmental and biodiversity concerns of a Ramsar listed wetlands, it’s important these matters are handled delicately and with great care for our environment. Western Port is the jewel in the Mornington Peninsula’s crown. It is home to world famous weedy seadragons, Phillip Island’s thriving colony of little penguins, and French Island National Park – home to Victoria’s most significant koala population. The peninsula community takes its role as local defenders of Western Port incredibly seriously. In 2019, the community fought off the proposed floating gas storage and re-gasification unit (FSRU) at Crib Point and, in March 2021, the planning minister ruled that the project was unacceptable. This was an important moment for the future of the bay in determining what industries are acceptable in our region. As a result, groups like the Westen Port Biosphere Foundation are working with local governments and key stakeholders to try and develop a framework for government and major proponents to develop guidelines and create stability. For the community and industry, this is pivotal work. Over recent years, the state government has given itself some very ambitious renewable energy targets to try and accelerate emissions reductions across Victoria. A target of 25 per
LONG Island Point, Hastings has been chosen as a site for a terminal to assemble offshore wind turbines. Picture: Gary Sissons cent by 2020 proved successful, but the updated targets of 65 per cent by 2030 and 95 per cent by 2035 will be more difficult to reach. Offshore wind has its own targets too, with 2GW of offshore wind generation originally anticipated by 2032, and 9GW by 2040. It’s fair to say these targets came to a screeching halt in December when the federal Environment Minister Tanya Plibersek vetoed plans for the renewable energy terminal to be built at the Port of Hastings. The state government remains “undeterred” and will assess what options it has available. So, how did we end up in this situation? The Commonwealth could have afforded Victoria the opportunity to amend its proposal before it rejected it as being “totally unacceptable”. Both levels of government are enthusiastic supporters of the offshore wind industry, particularly the Gippsland offshore wind zone – but a terminal that is strategically located close to

Gippsland and close to a substantially qualified workforce is necessary for the industry to take its first steps. Both governments need to work out a solution, as further delays will only stall the state’s renewable energy transition and send offshore wind proponents to other states or other parts of the world. The scale of dredging required is clearly a problem for the community, and the federal government acknowledged this as one of its key concerns in making its decision. So too is the project’s footprint and its effect on migratory birds and marine life. To address some of these concerns, the state government could look towards a multi-port model, scaling back the size of the terminal in Hastings and using ports at Barry Beach (near Toora in Gippsland) and Geelong to share the assembly process. These two additional ports have been identified by offshore wind proponents as crucial, so plans are already underway to use
them for servicing, maintenance and operations. However, it’s critical that the home of offshore wind assembly remains at the Port of Hastings. Hastings was identified by the state government as the most appropriate location for the terminal. It has strategic advantages over Gippsland and Geelong given its proximity to Melbourne’s workforce, natural deep water channels and available land. Furthermore, offshore wind components are obtrusive, heavy, and require a unique set of requirements that no terminal in Victoria is currently capable of assembling. If the state government’s response or appeal means a pathway to an environmental effects statement (EES) process is possible, then the socio-economic benefits for Hastings and surrounding townships are important to discuss. Hastings frequently tops government lists of disadvantage, rental stress and unemployment statistics. Australian Bureau of Statistics data from the 2021 Australian census ranks Hastings as the most disadvantaged suburb in Melbourne, alongside Capel Sound, Sunshine, Cranbourne and Broadmeadows. An industry that is home grown and nation leading will require local jobs and skills. Opportunities for the often forgotten side of the Mornington Peninsula don’t come up often, so we should embrace these positive winds of change which will bring so much good to our region. As the nation continues its transition to a clean energy future, Hastings has an opportunity to assert itself as the home of renewable energy in Victoria. Our region could play a pivotal role in the nation’s battle against the adverse effects of climate change. With the right balance and the opportunity to commence a thorough EES process, offshore wind assembly could redefine Hastings for the next half a century. *Josh Sinclair is CEO of the Committee for Frankston and Mornington Peninsula

Mount Martha ‘hot spot’ for break-ins
Living the dream: Liz Hincklin, Jacquie Beddows and Gidja Walker are the subjects of documentaries in the Dreamweavers series that focus on their inspirational activities after overcoming adversity. Picture: Yanni
Women’s adversity leads to inspiration DREAMWEAVERS, a series of short documentary films about three Mornington Peninsula-based women who have suffered adversity and inspire others, will be screened as part of the Flinders Fringe Festival on Sunday (25 February). The series was made by award winning film makers Heather Forbes-McKeon and photographer for The News, Yanni Dellaportas. Gidja Walker, an ecologist and ethnobotanist who has worked for years protecting Earthscapes, overcame discrimination in a male dominated profession. Walker mentors young women entering the world of nature-based learning and an advocate for traditional
owner custodianship. Jacquie Beddows suffered a stroke and aneurysm in 2011, aged 50. While no longer able to work as an early childhood support worker, she established Singing for Wellness in 2015 and Art for Wellness in 2019 at Seawinds Community Hub, Rosebud. The third subject of Dreamweavers, Liz Hicklin, is an inspirational 92-year-old author, poet and raconteur whose enthusiasm for life and entertaining others challenges assumptions about old age.. Following its success in 2023, the Flinders Fringe Festival will be held from 23 to 25 February. For bookings go to flindersfringe.com.au/
A SPATE of break-ins around a Mount Martha “hot spot” has residents calling for more intensive policing. In recent weeks the number of houses around the Hearn Road area that have been targeted has put home owners on alert. Mount Martha resident Sonia said residents were sick of the crime and the inability to stop the offenders, who had been caught on CCTV and appeared to be teenagers or young men. “In December, January and this month there have been a lot of properties affected. I know of people in Capri Drive, Shearwater Drive, The Point, Churchill, Stanley, Ponyara Road and others around the hill area,” she said. “They have been targeting us for weeks … early hours …. police are patrolling and trying to identify them”. Sonia said police were trying, but were probably under resourced. “People need to be aware this is happening, and be alert … have security and just be aware,” she said. MP for Eastern Victoria Region Renee Heath late last year called on the Minister for Correction Anthony Carbines to address the crime rate. Heath said a rise in crime over summer had signalled the need for more police on the Mornington Peninsula. Carbines said the police commissioner recognised that highly visible proactive policing operations – ensuring police officers were on the frontline, responding to calls for assistance – would best ad-
dress crime and keep communities safe. He said the 2022-23 state budget included an extra $600 million, of which $342 million was for an additional 502 police officers. Carbines said the extra police was on top of the more than 3600 additional police already on the frontline financed as part of the Allan Labor government’s record $4.5 billion investment in Victoria Police. “I encourage you to remind your constituents that they should continue to call triple zero (000) for emergencies or the police assistance line (131 444) or online reporting service for non-urgent reports”. Victoria Police was contacted for comment. Liz Bell

DUNKLEY BY-ELECTION
Candidates target cost of living Brodie Cowburn brodie@mpnews.com.au EARLY voting has begun in the Dunkley by-election. Polling day for the by-election is on 2 March with eight candidates on the ballot - in ballot order they are Nathan Conroy (Liberal), Bronwyn Currie (Animal Justice), Chrysten Abraham (Libertarian), Reem Yunis (Victorian Socialists), Darren Bergwerf (Independent), Alex Breskin (Greens), Heath McKenzie (Australian Democrats), and Jodie Belyea (Labor). Early voting centres have been set up at Lyrebird Community Centre in Carrum Downs, Functions by the Bay in Frankston, and 1st Ranelagh Scout Group in Mount Eliza. They are open from 8.30am to 5.30pm on weekdays (6pm on 1 March), and from 9am to 4pm on Saturday 24 February. The Dunkley by-election was triggered by the death of incumbent MP Peta Murphy who died of metastatic breast cancer in December. Murphy first won the seat for Labor in 2019 and retained it with an increased margin of 6.3 per cent at the 2022 federal election. Before Murphy’s 2019 win, the Liberals had held the seat since 1996. Bruce Billson was the local member for 20 of those years. The News sent questions to all candidates last week about their priorities. All candidates who responded* identified cost of living as one of the most prominent issues facing Dunkley voters.
NATHAN CONROY (Liberal Party)
JODIE BELYEA (Labor Party)
What do you do for work? I have served as the mayor of Frankston City since 2021. How long have you lived in Dunkley? I have lived in Dunkley for six years. My wife, Steffie, was born and raised in Carrum Downs. Why did you decide to run in this by-election? In my time serving the community, I’ve seen first-hand that people are hurting under the Albanese Labor government. I’m passionate about the future of this community and believe I am the best candidate to represent it in federal parliament. What is the most prominent issue facing Dunkley voters? Voters are concerned about the Albanese government’s cost of living crisis, as well as Labor’s cuts to local infrastructure. What local infrastructure projects should be prioritised? Frankston-Baxter Rail Extension, Monterey Reserve Redevelopment in Frankston North, Bruce Park Pavilion in Frankston, Len Phelps Pavilion in Carrum Downs, and the revitalisation of Nepean Highway along with the modernisation of Mount Eliza Secondary College. What specific measures would you take to ease cost of living pressure? Under Labor, Australia’s inflation is higher than any major advanced economy. I’ll fight for - and be part of a team that delivers - responsible
What do you do for work? I founded and run the Women’s Spirit Project, a local not-for-profit that supports local women doing it tough. Over 6 years, we’ve helped empower women overcoming trauma and abuse. How long have you lived in Dunkley? I have lived in Dunkley for more than a decade. I live in Frankston with my husband Dave, our son Flynn who studies at Frankston High School, and we’ve got two dogs and a mortgage. Why did you decide to run in this byelection? I’m running because I love our community, and I want to make a real difference and improve people’s lives. The late Peta Murphy encouraged me to think about public service. Peta and I shared similar values: compassion, fairness and a deep commitment to social justice. My priorities, are easing the cost of living, strengthening Medicare, housing affordability and improving access to fee-free TAFE. What is the most prominent issue facing Dunkley voters? When I’m out doorknocking in the community the top issue raised with me is cost of living. My number one priority is helping locals with the cost of living - and that’s why I’m supportive of tax cuts to every taxpayer in Dunkley. I’ll be a local MP that listens and advocates to make our local community in an even better place.
LIBERAL candidate Nathan Conroy. Picture: Gary Sissons economic and energy policies that lower inflation and take pressure off interest rates. For example, we don’t need the 10,000 new bureaucrats this year Labor are hiring. We need to focus on better service delivery. We also need to back small businesses, rather than burden them with red tape and higher costs - so they can deliver better value for customers and grow our economy.
NO ONE’S UNSINKABLE To all those Unsinkable Guys out there – You might think it’s safe to have a few drinks around water, skip the life jacket when you’re out on the boat or go for a swim without checking the conditions. But statistics prove that 4 out of 5 drownings are men. Just remember that no one’s unsinkable.

What local infrastructure projects should be prioritised? We are delivering investment in local infrastructure - the Chisholm TAFE redevelopment, Hall Road upgrade, and the new Medicare Urgent Care Clinic. Improving our health system, housing affordability, and making it easier for people to get access to TAFE and university, are priorities for me. At age 25, I went to TAFE as a mature aged student to study youth work and community development, it gave me the experience I needed to kick start my career. What specific measures would you take to ease cost of living pressure? I’m a strong supporter of giving tax relief to workers and Labor’s cost of living tax cuts will give every taxpayer in Dunkley a tax cut from 1 July. For instance, a retail worker at the Bayside Centre earning $73,000 a year will get a tax cut of $1,504 – that’s $804 more than under the Liberals. Making prescription medicines cheaper is a practical way we can help older people with the cost of living.
LABOR candidate Jodie Belyea. Picture: Gary Sissons
BRONWYN CURRIE (Animal Justice Party) What do you do for work? Convenor, Animal Justice Party Victoria. How long have you lived in Dunkley? I live minutes from Dunkley - I’m the AJP regional leader of South-East metro. Why did you decide to run in this byelection? Human and non-human animals deserve representation. The Labor government does not care for iconic wildlife, they have not fulfilled their promise to phase out live sheep export by sea, they have allowed duck shooting to continue, the kangaroo culls continue and they are missing huge economic advantage by not investing in plant based and cell based businesses that will help to ease the burden of our food systems and improve the climate crisis. What local infrastructure projects should be prioritised? Affordable and appropriate housing developments with wildlife corridors considered a priority in planning. What specific measures would you take to ease cost of living pressure? The AJP would see Veticare implemented which would directly assist people with the cost of living crisis through subsidised veterinary care, similar to medicare for human animals.
CHRYSTEN ABRAHAM (Libertarian Party) What do you do for work? I’m an employment relations specialist (HR), and work for a locally owned business. How long have you lived in Dunkley? My fiancé Hayden and I rent in Frankston with our fur baby, Lacey, and I have lived on the peninsula most of my adult life.
Why did you decide to run in this byelection? To see change, I believe you have to try to enact that change yourself. David Limbrick, our Libertarian MP for South-East Metro in Victorian Parliament has been able to make big, positive differences for our region, and if elected to Dunkley, I can absolutely make the same, positive impact at the federal level. What local infrastructure projects should be prioritised? If elected to represent our community, I will be advocating for the government to stop sending taxpayer money overseas, so it can be spent locally on educational infrastructure that enables school choice, such as vouchers to send your kids to a better school, or support for homeschooling. I’ll also advocate to cut red tape to enable more housing development, to increase the availability of rentals, apartments, units and houses. What specific measures would you take to ease cost of living pressure? • Cut fuel tax - 49c per litre, cheaper transport costs leads to cheaper groceries. • Increase tax-free threshold to $45k, with flat 20% income tax. • Let energy companies work to find the cheapest source, not government. Legalise Nuclear. • Cut alcohol taxes – save $27 off a slab of beer. • We must increase housing supply to solve the housing crisis.
REEM YUNIS (Victorian Socialists) What do you do for work? For the past 24 years I have been a teacher. How long have you lived in Dunkley? For the past year and a half I’ve lived in Clyde North with my two daughters
and my grandchildren. Why did you decide to run in this byelection? There are two main reasons. I’m angered by the domination of big business interests in politics, and the lack of any real assistance to people doing it tough in the cost of living crisis. As a Palestinian-Australian I’ve also been appalled by Labor’s and the Liberal’s support for Israel’s war on Gaza. I want a government that stands against war and focuses on issues like housing, transport, education, and healthcare. What local infrastructure projects should be prioritised? I believe the Peninsula Rail Link should be built to extend the rail line to Rosebud. This should be the number one priority as it would have a number of positive flow-on effects like reducing traffic congestion and the problem of lack of parking around Frankston Station. What specific measures would you take to ease cost of living pressure? My policies include price controls on essential goods to stop supermarket giants and other corporations from ripping off consumers, a five-year freeze on rents, and establishing a free, publicly-run childcare system to reduce costs for families with young children.
DARREN BERGWERF (Independent) How long have you lived in Dunkley? I have worked and lived in the Dunkley electorate since 2005 Why did you decide to run in this byelection? I am running in this election to address the issues of: Expose Media bias and government corruption, drug, alcohol and mental service short falls, homelessness, housing/rental shortage crisis, exacerbated by excess (sic) immigra-
tion, cost of living, crime/suicide rates, which is a disassociated society. This needs to be rectified. What specific measures would you take to ease cost of living pressure? Monies being spent on new infrastructure when existing services are already serving the community and then redirect those monies to help the real needs of the community.
ALEX BRESKIN (Greens) What do you do for work? I am a long-time campaigner, I studied information technology and systems in Monash University and I work full-time as a software engineer. How long have you lived in Dunkley? While I live a couple of suburbs over, I don’t currently live in the electorate. I’ve been living in this corner of Melbourne for over 25 years, and I love it. Why did you decide to run in this byelection? I believe the people of Dunkley should have a real choice of candidates and the option to vote for their values. As a Greens representative, I want to put real action on the climate crisis and tackling the cost of living on the agenda. By ending the billions of dollars in handouts to coal and gas corporations and making billionaires pay their fair share in tax, we can tackle the climate crisis and make sure no-one is left behind. Across Australia but especially here in Dunkley, people are feeling the pinch in this housing crisis. The Greens have a solution to fix the housing crisis by freezing rents and mortgages and building 1 million new homes. What local infrastructure projects should be prioritised? We need to prioritise public housing first and foremost so that everyone has a place to call home. Getting people into a
home is the top priority to ensure people can get by. We also need to ensure the environment is taken care of, which will mean upgrading Kananook Creek and Saltwater Creeks oxygenating and filtration systems to prevent algae blooms. We also need local civil society propped up with more facilities for grassroots organisations to accommodate themselves in. What specific measures would you take to ease cost of living pressure? The government should make dental and mental health free under Medicare so people aren’t out of pocket for necessities. I will seek to wipe student debt, since the education of our country makes us richer without having to put the squeeze on people leaving education clawing away at a debt. We need to build a million new affordable homes so the people can actually afford a place to call their home. *Australian Democrats candidate Heath McKenzie did not respond.

Picture: Yanni A MORE than 20-year drought has broken for the Rosebud Sea Scouts. Bruce Male was presented with his Queen’s Scout award on Saturday 10 February, the first received by a member of the group since 1999. The presentation made by DRRH Venturer unit leader Sam Blair was the first at the group since 1999. Fewer than five per cent of Venturer scouts aged 15-18 earn the award which involves achieving milestones, completing an adventurous journey, providing community service and leading others to achieve. Male’s achievements included such challenges as a seven-day 100-kilometre mountain hike, leading the only Victorian patrol to win the Scouts Invade Tasmania event, working behind the scenes at major Statescout events, mentoring younger scouts, helping restore the floor at Rosebud Sea Scouts’ hall and restoring its fleet

Repair of stairs to quarry The timber stairway at Moorooduc Quarry has had a new-age facelift. Mornington Peninsula Shire Council last year upgraded the stairs refurbishment project to include the landing of the stair to long-lasting fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP). The fire access to the quarry was also repaired and the two timber foot bridges at the top of the reserve were upgraded with FRP material, including new handrails. The cost, including the fire access track, stairs, and bridges, was $90,000. The mayor Cr Simon Brooks said the project involved labour-intensive work due to accessing the site, transporting materials and removing waste. He said the stairs had taken more than one month to complete. “Moorooduc quarry is a fantastic open space for our community and we want to ensure residents are able to enjoy it for many years to come,” Brooks said. “I’m pleased we have been able to incorporate fibre-reinforced polymer into our upgrade of the quarry access steps and track. It’s a more effective material than wood and lasts significantly longer, so there should be little or no ongoing maintenance needed. “Trying to juggle the many competing infrastructure maintenance priorities across the peninsula is a perennial challenge with the limited resources we have as a council.” Members of the project crew were on site last week for an extra three days for minor repairs on the stairs and to carry waste to the bottom of the stairs. Fibre-Reinforced Polymer is a composite material made of a polymer matrix reinforced with fibres. With one of the highest strength-toweight ratios of any material, it is strong and durable, ready for years of dependable use Liz Bell
Prize offer for budget ideas MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire Council is offering a prize for residents’ “ideas and aspirations” for its next budget. The inducement follows the unprecedented backlash the shire faced over its secret decision to allow the wildlife sanctuary at The Briars, Mount Martha, to be used for the sound and light show, Harry Potter: a Forbidden Forest Experience. Despite weeks of saying it was not possible, the shire last week moved the show out of the sanctuary and into the community forest, dog leash-free area (Sanctuary may be forbidden for Harry, The News 13/2/24). Suggestions for items to be included in the 2024-25 shire budget can be made until 15 March. “By participating, you have the chance to win a $100 voucher from one of the many food establishments that were nominees in the hospitality category for our 2023 Business Excellence Awards,” a news release stated (including exclamation marks) and issued by the shire the day before it performed the Harry Potter backflip. Budget suggestions can be made at mornpen.vic.gov.au/budget-2024-25 “If your name is chosen, we’ll be in touch via email to arrange your chosen voucher. Easy and delicious!”, the shire quoted the mayor, Cr Simon Brooks: “Don’t miss your chance to go in the draw! Your feedback is food for thought for council, so what better way of thanking our community than with a good feed?” Keith Platt

WHAT’S NEW...
A garden party for a great cause FUSION Mornington Peninsula is a local organisation supporting at-risk young people and families through housing and support for those experiencing and at-risk of homelessness. Each year a major fundraising event is held to raise awareness and funds to ensure these programs can continue to be delivered and to provide opportunities for our young people to learn employability skills at the event. Gemma Bell from Fusion Mornington Peninsula shared her insights. ‘Our local community is now very aware of the prevalence of homelessness within our neighbourhoods. It is hard not to be confronted with the tragic impacts of unaffordable housing, rising living costs and conflict within the family home. Many of us are asking what can we do? For over 40 years our local community-owned response Fusion Mornington Peninsula - has welcomed young people most impacted by the heartbreaking reality of homelessness. Today this response is carrying the heavy weight of the influx that has come from our local housing crisis. Despite this weight, our community is committed to continuing to create ways where young people and young families faced with the bleakness of homelessness and family violence can find safety, community, and home. Within the heart of our
community lies a need for an authentic togetherness that holds the capacity to chase away the darkness our young ones carry. Let’s invite that heart to lead us all home.’ This year Fusion Mornington Peninsula’s fundraising event is being reinvented as the Friends of Fusion Garden Party. Join us on Saturday 16 March from 2.00pm to 4.30pm for an afternoon enjoying gourmet food, beverages, entertainment, and playing lawn games, as we all come together to support our community.

After 18 seasons across 10 years, the formula for this much-loved series hasn’t changed one iota. For those who are yet to fall for this amusing distraction, it’s essentially TV lovers idle in their living rooms watching the latest shows, unfiltered and honest, as secret cameras capture every spontaneous remark and facial expression. In this 19th instalment, original cast members including the Daltons (pictured) are dutifully back on the couch. It’s an entertaining window into our national psyche.

THE BOURNE LEGACY

Set in the same world as Matt Damon’s outstanding trilogy, The Bourne Legacy makes do just fine without the series’ original protagonist. Taking on the lead role this time is Jeremy Renner (pictured) as super soldier Aaron Cross. After surviving an attempt on his life during a training exercise, Cross sets off to find those responsible for his genetic enhancement. A fine cast, clever plot and some incredible action sequences mean this Bourne chapter loses nothing without Damon.

HOUSE OF GODS
ABC TV, 8.30pm
This sophisticated thriller about family and power takes place in western Sydney and comes from Ali’s Wedding writer and creator Osamah Sami. It’s personal for Sami, based on his teen years growing up as the son of the head cleric at a Melbourne mosque. Starring Kamel El Basha (pictured above, right), it’s an immersive view into an Iraqi Australian community and culture, which is rarely represented on screen. We follow a charismatic sheik who is elected as head of The Messenger mosque amid a flurry of controversy. Gripping and original.

Trust: easily lost, hard to regain The relocation of the Harry Potter Experience to a less sensitive at The Briars will come as a great relief to those who pressured Mornington Peninsula Shire Council to reconsider its decision. A new ecological report for this community forest (dog walking park) will be published on the shire website soon. This new location is 500 metres from the nearest point of the wildlife sanctuary and, we are told, will have minimal effect on the fauna and flora. CEO John Baker acknowledged that the community backlash definitely influenced this decision to change the venue. Cr Despi O’Connor moved the recommendation then went on to make excuses as to why the councillors were the “heroes” in this debacle. I’m not sure if all the councillors get it, even now. Looking forward to the commitment by the mayor Cr Simon Brooks that there will be a review of the process undertaken by the council to locate [the performance] at The Briars in the first place. Maybe that review will make the council realise that trust, easily lost and hard to regain, is the first casualty of lack of transparency and consultation. The Greens Mornington Peninsula played an active role with Save Our Briars and other community groups to engage in robust discussions with all stakeholders and with all levels of government. A great relief to all. Julie Gunn, Dromana
Thanks for Gill I would like to thank Cr David Gill for standing firm in the protection of The Briars’ wildlife and not following the non-disclosure and secrecy demands raised for the Harry Potter project. It is not the first time that Cr Gill has stood up for the Mornington Peninsula’s needs. On many occasions before has he shown, often on his own or with a small number of fellow councillors, that his attitude as a councillor is to work and lobby for the better of the peninsula and its ratepayers, rather than like others who are driven by party politics or matters of self-esteem. Norbert Wichmann, Mornington
Dunkley’s choice The groundswell of folk willing to protect the wildlife within The Briars sanctuary was uplifting evidence of how much people on the Mornington Peninsula care about the environment. Given recent wild weather and power outages, amid a cost-of-living crisis, the upcoming Dunkley by-election offers an interesting choice for voters. On climate and energy, the coalition is increasingly pushing for nuclear, which modelling from the CSIRO says is five times more expensive to build than firmed renewables and, according to many experts including former Chief Scientist Alan Finkel, wouldn’t be online until the 2040s. Labor, meanwhile, is pushing ahead with its plan for 82 per cent renewables by 2030. If we care about addressing climate change and protecting our environment in a way that doesn’t further add to cost-of-living pressures, it’s worth thinking through these and other policy options prior to ballot day. Amy Hiller, Kew
Climate chaos We’re fast approaching third world status when an admittedly strong weather condition can knock our power and communication systems out and put 500,000 people in peril. In the meantime, our climate change denying NLP members of parliament are still clinging to their mantra of, “It costs too much to do anything meaningful about our CO2 emissions”. It’s starting to become clear to all and sundry that doing nothing is going to be a lot more expensive for us all. Civilisation is only skin deep and if we keep having disasters like a few days ago more frequently, society will be in great danger of drifting into chaos. Rupert Steiner, Balnarring
Voicing strategies It was heartening to read that the community group Peninsula Voice is providing a forum for residents to discuss and combat climate change (Facing up to climate change, The News 6/2/24). The Climate Change Empowerment Handbook of the Australian Psychological Society lists eight strategies making the acronym ACTI-
VATE. The third strategy is “Talk about climate change and break the collective silence”, while the fourth strategy is “Inspire positive visions”. It’s clear from Peter Orton’s report that the forum to be held on Thursday 29 February at the Peninsula Community Theatre includes both these key strategies. The group’s events page at peninsulavoice.org.au/our-events is well worth a visit. Ray Peck, Hawthorn
Change is needed The current global warming is different from previous ones. (Climate ‘normal’, Letters 13/2/24) Our planet’s average temperature has, as your correspondent wrote, risen 1.48°C in just over 170 years, since 1850. But since 1970 the rate averages 1.7°C a century - and it is speeding up. In the past, changes were typically much, much slower; in the previous 7000 years to now, for example, the temperature was declining at a rate of 0.01C a century. The current rapid changes are too fast for species, including us and our systems, to seamlessly adapt. Current rates of species extinction are reckoned to be at least 1000 times the so-called background rate. Of course, if we don’t want to, we don’t have to believe any of these documented findings. Hopefully, science and logic will have us question how we can ask the planet to keep absorbing ever increasing volumes of greenhouse gas pollution from our sometimes wasteful, frequently fossil-fuel dependent lifestyles, and not expect consequences. To keep the climate the way we like it, we need to change. Lesley Walker, Northcote
Unwanted added extra What a Sunday I had. I went to church, and they passed around the plate. They said 15 per cent surcharge extra. We have staff to pay on a Sunday. Then I went to the supermarket to get milk and bread. The girl at the checkout said 15 per cent surcharge extra. We want to get paid. It is Sunday. I decided to go to the movies. The box office person said they wanted 15 per cent surcharge on my ticket because it was Sunday and there were wages to pay. As I was leaving the cinema I fell and broke my leg. I called the ambulance. They said 15 per cent surcharge extra. It is Sunday. At the hospital they said it is Sunday, so we need 15 per cent surcharge extra because of Sunday wages. Lucky I didn’t go to a restaurant because they would have charged me 15 per cent surcharge because it was Sunday. Judi Loughridge, Rosebud
Promises easy to make The Liberals claim that they will provide money for the electrification of the Frankston-Baxter line. Voters should be wary of this promise. The Liberals are in no position to actually deliver this money as they are in opposition and will be so for the remainder of this term and probably the next. Promises are always easy from opposition. Secondly the coalition’s ability to deliver is also dubious, who can forget the “station car parks” debacle in their last term of government. Ross Hudson, Mount Martha
Age old questions OMG. 2024 already, so quick. It sneaks up on you. And with it a frightening thought: This coming March I reach 88 years. Those last 20 years slipped by almost unnoticed. One minute I was an actor, the next nothing? The Chinese say it’s double good fortune, but I’m not Chinese. Whichever way I look at it, as in my future, I’m an octogenarian, so at best small mercies. Little or no subtext to fall back on. The cupboard is empty. Of the world, even the Yanks are in trouble, a Donald Trump presidency on the cards, we live in hope of Anthony Albanese updating his courage and dispensing with the dangerous Peter Dutton in 2025, do something about Julian Assange and watch, hoping the Russians, the Chinese, and those in the Middle East forget us and sort out their fights among themselves.
Signs of having personal problems On our typical Sunday walk we see street signs ripped out of the ground. I do feel sorry for the poor souls that have nothing better to do on a Saturday night, however I do seem to recall reading of an international
study that showed there was a direct correlation between disrespect for public property and a low IQ, together with sexual inadequacy. I guess they just don’t get it. John Power, Mornington
Meantime, another AFL football season awaits, those small mercies, assuming I last another season. The old joke of walking into a room, stopping, and asking yourself “Why did I come in here?” uppermost. Google doesn’t answer that one. Cliff Ellen, Rye
schools, better roads, modern trains and improved services and care for our ageing senior citizens. Since Albanese’s Labor came to power we’ve had 11 consecutive cash rate hikes (from 0.1 per cent to 4.35 per cent) and the quarterly inflation figure of around 5.3 per cent. in December 2023. In March 2023, the inflation figure climbed to seven per cent. That figure was the highest it has been since Labor’s Paul Keating, 30 years ago. The cost of living has seen household expenses rise 11.2 per cent ( December 2022) with electricity prices forecast to rise 50 per cent by 2024 and mortgage rates for the average owner occupier paying a variable rate of 6.54 per cent in 2024. In 2019 there was Labor’s retiree tax targeting almost million retirees, investors and pensioners. Those Australians had spent their lives working, saving and contributing to superannuation, for most, a compulsory savings scheme, designed to enable them to live out their retirement years free of the need of a government pension. Send Labor the message that forcing up fuel, electricity and gas prices, increasing taxes, ongoing teacher shortages, inadequate rail services, high crime rates, the rising cost of living and inflation won’t be tolerated. On or before 2 March, vote one for Nathan Conroy of the Liberal Party. Thomas Quinn (Liberal, Victoria), Moe
Building too high I have lived in Frankston for 25 years and am appalled by the proposal to undermine the most beautiful natural assets of the bay by building a wall of up to 16 storey dwellings close to the foreshore. [Frankston mayor and the Liberal Party’s Dunkley candidate] Nathan Conroy reiterates he supports those struggling with the cost of living. However, these million dollar apartments which he supports wholeheartedly are not affordable for strugglers, so I am doubtful he really cares about the community. Avril Bradley, Frankston
Politics as usual Frankston councillor Liam Hughes was appointed acting mayor while overseas. It appears that he did not nominate for the position and he had leave from council. There are councillors who have been mayor in the past who could take over the responsibilities of mayor until either Hughes or the Liberal candidate for Dunkley Cr Nathan Conroy returns as mayor or resigns. What is occurring is politics and it seems the reason the council is angry and wants Cr Hughes’ resignation and return from overseas is so that it can get the money the Commonwealth promised to build the Frankston to Baxter rail extension, not build it. The money for the unexplained projects which the council are after cannot be given to Frankston Council as it is unconstitutional for the Commonwealth to give local government money, even though there is an unconstitutional Commonwealth ministry and minister for local government which cost taxpayers millions of dollars every year. What is happening here is politics to remove Hughes as the councillors removed his father from council. If they are so concerned then they should appoint one of the councillors to meet with the [Dunkley by-election] candidates to lobby for the money. Prime Minister [Anthony] Albanese has promised $1 billion dollars towards the building of the extension to the Frankston Hospital only. So that leaves the mayor of Frankston, Nathan Conroy, the Liberal candidate who no doubt will give the “world” with promises of unconstitutional revenue. Russell, Morse, Karingal
Record of debt The voters of Dunkley simply can’t afford the “debt and deficit” culture of Jodie Belyea and [Prime Minister] Anthony Albanese’s Labor Party. Australia’s net debt in 2024 is forecast at $491 billion, or 18.4 per cent of GDP. That’s a massive debt that our grandkids will be left to pay off. In effect money that would have been better spent on new hospitals, more
Heart of the matter Heart Research Australia is dedicated to reshaping how Australians approach cardiovascular wellbeing without causing financial strain. Beyond our collective effort to raise funds for life-saving research, our goal this year is to shed light on the financial and health implications associated with heart disease, affecting individuals regardless of their financial circumstances. Heart disease touches the lives of two in three Australians and stands as the leading cause of death. Prioritising heart health is an investment in both personal wellbeing and financial stability. In the midst of escalating living expenses, allocating resources for health might seem like a luxury. However, overlooking heart health can result in severe financial consequences, impacting wages, work capacity, career advancement, and long-term financial stability. Knowledge plays a pivotal role in fostering a healthier heart, with eight out of 10 cases of premature heart disease and stroke preventable through healthy lifestyle choices. From hearthealthy, budget friendly diets to accessible exercise options and stress management techniques, there are numerous practical and cost-effective strategies. We invite all Australians to explore our free online Heart Hub, offering a wealth of expert advice on cultivating heart-healthy habits. Research is a lifeline, emphasising Heart Research Australia’s steadfast support for world class researchers. This is why we encourage all Australians to wear red this February and, if possible, extend a helping hand by contributing to fund vital research against heart disease.

Local farmers Direct is a family friendly business that supports local and Australian farmers. We promote eating with the seasons. Our story began in Heatherton, 1956. As we developed and grew bigger, the family moved to the Cranbourne-Clyde area, and became one of the leading suppliers to Coles. In 2000, the family was hit by hail 5 times in 3 months; stock was hail damaged but still fresh and consumable. As the farm was struggling to make ends meet, the family came up with the idea to open up the farm, and offer fresh fruit and vegetables straight from the paddock to the public.

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES
The Maroon fifth Circle of Hell By Stuart McCullough EVERYONE has a limit. A point beyond which, if pushed, they are destined to break. For some, they stumble across their breaking point when they least expect it. Not me. I know all too well the thing that sends my spirit into freefall, generally eviscerating my will to live. For some it’s the sight of a sodden kitten caught in a rainstorm. Others can’t stand the thought of an impending nuclear holocaust. But, for me at least, it’s the music of Maroon 5. Normally, I’d write something here about ‘not wanting to offend any fans of Maroon 5’. But if I’m being honest, I do. There’s something about their highly-preened soft-rock stylings that gets me completely offside. It’s not that they rub me the wrong way; it’s that the thought of the physical contact necessary to rub me in any direction at all that gives me the heebie-jeebies. It’s music that’s custom-made for carparks and shopping malls. Like Nickelback but with a better haircut and a higher voice. I had rung my internet service provider for the simple reason that I had no internet. The way I see it, they’ve only got one job and they were failing terribly. They weren’t much better at running a call centre. When you ring a call centre, they do everything they can to talk you out of it. The experience begins with a recording, featuring a voice solemnly intoning that wait times are ‘longer than usual’ as a result of a ‘high volume of calls’. If that’s not enough, they then offer you the option of a ‘call back’, so that instead of wasting time on hold, you get to suffer the indignity of them ringing you at the least convenient moment possible. I wasn’t going to give up that easily. I hung on. Then things turned nasty. Without warning, I was put on hold. Generally, hold music falls into two distinct categories – there’s the ‘corporate loop’ message, where a musical tidbit is played incessantly whilst someone who sounds so up-
beat that they must not be on hold tells you all kinds of useless information about the company. These information morsels generally begin with ‘did you know?’ and then tell you that instead of being stuck on hold and visibly ageing as you wait, you could submit your query online instead. Which, of course, would be true if the reason for calling was for something other than the fact of not having any internet. But corporate shoutouts are one thing. What happened to me next was an entirely different level of inanity. As the voiceover segued into music, I was suddenly and unexpectedly confronted by the sounds of ‘She Will be Loved’ by Maroon 5. On a loop. Which, if you’re on hold for the best (or worst) part of forty minutes, is quite the experience. In Dante’s Inferno, some people mistakenly think the fifth circle of hell is wrath, made up of a
swamp. Those people are wrong. The fifth circle of hell consists exclusively of the music of Maroon 5 in all its steaming, sulphuric glory. Ordinarily, if exposed to the music of Maroon 5, I’d take evasive action. If that means jumping from a moving vehicle because ‘Moves Like Jagger’ comes on the radio, so be it. Hot asphalt at twenty miles an hour is still preferable to having to sit through ‘Moves Like Jagger’. But this time there was nowhere to jump to that wouldn’t cost me my place in the queue. After what seemed like and may well have been an eternity, I was put through to someone who gave me ten different versions of ‘have you tried turning it off and on again?’ After an exhaustive exchange that included everything from trying to reset the modem using a paper clip, to jumping up and down on one leg and chanting, I was no closer to having internet.
I’ll admit I was cranky. When the very cheery person on the other end of the line asked whether I had any feedback, I took my chance. First of all, I checked to make sure that our call was being recorded for quality and training purposes. When he confirmed it was, I unloaded. I told him in no uncertain terms that leaving people on hold and making them listen to the same soft rock song repeatedly was not so much ‘customer service’ as it was a calculated attempt to punish anyone foolish enough to ring for help. There was an awkward silence, before a gentle ‘click’. Our time together was over. It’s an awkward age we live in. One where corporate behemoths are so desperate for your approval that every interaction – no matter how minor – warrants a customer satisfaction survey. Mine arrived about thirty seconds later. If you’re the fire department, you’re unlikely to issue a satisfaction survey whilst someone’s house is still on fire. Similarly, internet companies should avoid sending surveys that beg you to tell them how awesome they are whilst you still have no internet to speak of. Not even Maroon 5 would do something that silly. It took some time, but I now have internet again. That means I’m finally in a position to submit an online query to my internet provider to ask why my internet isn’t working, even though it is. I could always say that I was asking for a friend. And whilst I sailed through my internet-less life easily enough, due in large part to the fact that I’ve refused to get rid of my DVDs, the soft rock stylings of Maroon 5 now haunt me in my dreams. In fact, things are now so bad that I commonly avoid closing my eyes altogether, just to be sure that the gentle strains of ‘She Will Be Love’ doesn’t devour me as I sleep. Consider it lesson learned – never ring a help line. Instead, from this point on I’ll make all my complaints by telegram. stuart@stuartmccullough.com Mornington News

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...
Bank manager accidently shot while examining revolver considered necessary. So imbued was the Engineer with the feeling of the necessity of the work being done, that he not only made the necessary arrangements for the loan; but also, at his own home during the evenings, prepared the required plans. When this was completed, and the money was made available, he reported to the Council that all was in readiness. The whole scheme was blocked, however, by one of the Councillors moving that £500 of the loan should be used for improvements to the Cranbourne Road Reserve. It was at once pointed out that the money, having been raised for a specific purpose, must be used for same. However, through the general discussion that followed, and the fact that the matter was not forced to a division, the loan, not being availed of within the time agreed, it consequently lapsed. And while it is quite within the province, and we hope will be decided by the Council to again ask their Engineer to proceed to get the necessary money for the Park Improvement Scheme, we are afraid he will not be able to get it at the same low rate as heretofore. *** THE Misses Craig, with their brother, Mr. Craig, of Wedderburn, who have been enjoying· the salubrious climate here for the past month, are about to take their departure for their home town. Before leaving, however, they all expressed the pleasure they had experienced whilst on their visit.
The Misses Muntz, of Nathalia, who have had an extended holiday in Frankston, are leaving this week for home. They have had a most enjoyable time, the only thing missed by them being a croquet lawn, as at their home they have one laid down and both of these ladies are experts at the game. They also said that when they again visited Frankston they hoped that the suggestion of Mrs. Heymanson had been carried out. This sentiment was also expressed by the Misses Craig. *** THE many friends of Mr. E. P. Davis, of Wells Street, Frankston will regret to hear that his son Roy whilst working at his trade as a cabinet maker, in Melbourne, had the misfortune to cut his left arm so severely with a chisel, necessitating eight stitches being inserted. We understand that so far the injured arm is progressing as well as can be expected. We trust it will soon be quite healed. *** WE regret to hear that Mrs. McComb, wife of Mr. T. McComb, had another bad turn. We sincerely hope that the set back will be only a temporary nature, and the old lady, will soon be about again. *** MR. Lalor, station master, Frankston, is at present on furlough. The relieving officer is Mr. Mulchay. *** MRS. Kitchen, wife of Canon Kitchen, of “St. Paul’s,” Hay, New South Wales, and formerly vicar of Frankston, is at present with her children spending a holiday with
Feldman, Wells Street, Frankston. *** FRANKSTON is indeed honored and favoured in the appointment for the staff of the High School of Miss Broughton, B.A., Dip. Ed., who amongst her many other honors holds the much coveted Distinguished Service Medal of the Royal Life Saving Society. This medal, which was sent to her from London, is the only one held by a woman in the Southern Hemisphere. As a matter of fact, there are only four other women in the British Empire holding it. The public can, therefore, judge the qualifications needed to be its possessor. In addition, Miss Broughton holds the Bronze Medallion, and the Award of Merit of the Society. Last year Miss Broughton’s club, i.e., The Bendigo High School Club, were the winners of the “Lewis Excellence Cup,” for the best ladies’ club, securing 294 points, while the next club, which was a seaside club, gained only 130 points. In addition to this between 80 and 100 of the pupils who have passed through her hands have secured the Bronze Medallion, and another 150 have been awarded the proficiency certificate. With all these honors crowded up on her, Miss Broughton is most unassuming, her whole soul being centred upon the good work she is doing — and, like most people who have rendered good service to humanity, she shrinks from publicity. However, as this information has come to our knowledge, we feel it is only just that the people of the district

— whose children are partly in her care — and others, should also know the calibre of the lady to whom we refer.

Since then, however, we learn that there is quite a history attached to this instrument, which is, in our opinion, well worth repeating. It appears that in the early stages of the war this cornet belonged to the band of a battalion under the command of the gallant colonel, and from then on served its useful purpose on the other side of the world, finally passing into the hands of the aforesaid gentleman, who has now donated it to the band. Whether the experiences it has undergone will enable the operator to produce sweeter music remains to be seen; but we feel that we could not let it come into our midst without the little comment we have made. *** From the pages of the Frankston and Somerville Standard, 22 Feb 1924

Compiled by Cameron McCullough MR. Cyril Cameron, 38, manager of the Bank of Australasia at Port Melbourne, visited Frankston last Tuesday, and on Thursday morning it was reported that he had been found in the camp of a contractor named Hodgins, on Humphries Road, about three miles from the town. He was in a pitiable condition, and on examination it was found that he had been shot in the chest. The police had him removed to Frankston, where he was attended by Dr. Maxwell. He explained that he was examining an automatic revolver, when it went off and wounded him in the chest. Mr. Cameron was out throughout Tuesday night’s storm. He is now in Sister Creswick’s private hospital. *** Some discussion having taken place at the last meeting of the Progress Association on the question of the Frankston Park Improvement Scheme and the £2000 loan raised by the Shire Council for that purpose. And believing the general public – who are apparently in the dark – would like to know the exact position, we have made some inquiries, and find the following to be the case. When the Council decided to float a loan of £2000 for the purpose before indicated, they empowered the Shire Engineer, Lieut.-Colonel Lazarus, who is a past master in the art of raising of finances, to at once make the necessary arrangements to secure the loan. Further, he was instructed to prepare plans for the proposed alterations, and general improvements that were

Long Island wins a thriller, Pirates hold on wrapped up a win over Carrum Downs without too much trouble.
By Brodie Cowburn
PROVINCIAL
LONG Island held on for a thrilling win over Sorrento last Saturday. Long Island scored 272 runs on day one, giving the Sharks a tough task to tackle on day two. After a few early struggles, middle order batter Matthew Rulach took control of the game. Rulach smashed 103 runs from 151 balls for the Sharks to keep them in the contest. Jake Wood’s late half-century also kept them in the hunt. The game ended up going down to the final over. With one run required to draw level with four balls left to face, Sorrento lost their final wicket. Matt Shimell was the match-winner for Long Island. He took five wickets. Red Hill wrapped up a hard-fought four wicket win over Pines on Saturday. At Bruce Park, a century by opener Nathan Cassano couldn’t prevent Heatherhill from falling to defeat against Old Peninsula. Heatherhill were valiant in defeat, scoring 313 runs. They were chasing a target of 329. Langwarrin comfortably beat Baden Powell by 105 runs last weekend on their home deck.

in their sights. The Tigers’ second innings started disastrously. They lost skipper Brayden Roscoe for a golden duck, and couldn’t recover. The Tigers were bowled out for 77, dooming them to defeat. Tom Baron was the pick of the bowlers on Saturday. He took 4/20 from 20 overs. Somerville's victory over Moo-
rooduc was confirmed on Saturday. Dromana and Rosebud picked up wins over Mornington and Baxter respectively.

BALNARRING have batted well to grab a win over Flinders. Balnarring was chasing a score of 193 to win at BA Cairns Reserve on Saturday. Helped by a patient half-
century from opener Darcy Warmbrunn, Balnarring were able to reach their target in the middle of the day’s play. Jackson Hannah top scored for his side to get them over the line. The number six batter scored 60 of Balnarring’s runs. Seaford and Crib Point comfortably beat Delacombe Park and Main Ridge respectively last weekend. Carrum
BONEO were in good form on Saturday, claiming a five wicket win over Frankston YCW. The Stonecats set Boneo a target of 255 to chase down on day one. Boneo proved up to the task. Openers Samson Storey and Chris Jobling scored 52 and 81 respectively last Saturday. Their good starts set Boneo on the right path to a final total of 5/263. It took Boneo most of the day, but they managed to beat the Stonecats with time to spare. Mt Martha bowled well to defend their total of 216 against Tootgarook last Saturday. After a strong start on day two, Tootgarook lost 5 wickets for 15 runs. They couldn’t recover, and ended up falling to an 85 run defeat. Mt Martha skipper Ben Stallworthy impressed - he posted figures of 5/21 from 10 overs. Pearcedale, Tyabb, and Skye were victors over Ballam Park, Hastings, and Rye respectively.

’Buds make play for Greening SOCCER
By Craig MacKenzie ONE of the greatest goalscorers in Victorian football history could be on the verge of a sensational comeback if a plan hatched months ago by Rosebud comes to fruition. When Stuart Johnston and assistant Stan Packer took over as senior coaches they identified a need to add to the team’s firepower. Johnson knew Nathan Yole from their days at Mornington while Packer was a long-term friend of Dave Greening and given that both forwards had joined forces at Baxter a couple of years ago it seemed logical to try and revive their partnership. The first part of the plan dropped neatly into place last week when Yole signed and the second part could fit smoothly alongside it on Thursday when Greening trains with the senior squad. Greening’s impact on senior competition at varying State League levels can’t be overstated given his remarkable haul of nine league Golden Boot awards. The last time he kicked a ball in anger was against Endeavour United at Reema Reserve on Saturday 4 June 2022 and it looked as though the story of his playing days would have a horror ending. Greening had to be helped off in the first half and later taken to hospital after a reckless and dangerous challenge left him with a fractured cheekbone. “I’d hate to finish my playing career on that memory from Endeavour,” Greening said. “Look I was probably 50:50 about playing again but it’s more like 80:20 now and I’d like the chance to finish up on my terms rather than have someone knock my cheekbone out of place.” Greening is now 42 and has a threeyear-old son Alfie with partner Emma. He has been a physical education and classroom teacher at Boneo Primary School for over a decade. He took up athletics again last year having competed at county level when growing up in England and his return at masters’ level reaped spectacular results winning gold medals at state championships. Greening recently won three gold medals at the New Zealand Masters Games in Dunedin. But it’s his pending return to playing ranks that looks certain to cause a stir at Olympic Park and beyond. No doubt Rosebud fans are hoping that opposition defenders are soon to

be taught a lesson they will never forget. In VPL1 Langwarrin and Eastern Lions shared the spoils after Friday night’s 0-0 stalemate at Lawton Park. Both goalkeepers were among their team’s best with Keegan Coulter to the fore in the first half and Langwarrin counterpart James Burgess making some excellent reaction saves in the second half. Lions were a far different proposition to the previous week’s visitors Bentleigh Greens and represented a genuine attacking threat through South African-born left winger Deandre Vollenhoven, Barbados international Omani Leacock and right winger Nathan Stamatelos. In the 13th minute Coulter was forced to parry a shot on the turn from Langy striker Archie Macphee. Langy livewire Tom Youngs was prominent and three minutes from half-time his corner was met by Brad Blumenthal whose glancing header was saved on the line by Coulter and eventually cleared. In the final minute of the half Vollenhoven cut the ball back from the left of the box to Leacock who blew the best chance so far by blasting well over the bar. Two minutes into the second period a Stamatelos free-kick struck the wall and Vollenhoven’s volley lobbed over Burgess but Luke Adams headed off the line.

Lions created the better chances in this half but Burgess parried a closerange strike from Lions sub Nick Koutsoubos. In the 69th minute Vollenhoven broke through the middle then neatly played in substitute Davut Tahir on the left but he dwelt on the ball and his eventual shot was blocked. This Saturday Langwarrin will play its third consecutive home match when it hosts North Geelong at Lawton Park at 7pm after the under-23s’ curtain raiser. In State 3 news Frankston Pines midfielder Calvin Delaney had to be stretchered off just three minutes into Saturday’s friendly against Bundoora United at Hillsview Reserve. The club reports that Delaney injured an ankle and “will be in a race against time to make the season opener.” Pines have signed 27-year-old central defender Ben Philips who is a former Mazenod player returning after a break from the sport. Pines will kick-off their 2024 league campaign by hosting Middle Park under lights on Friday 22 March and hope to play all their home games under lights on Fridays. In State 4 news Baxter has signed its first Japanese player while another is trialling. Last week 20-year-old Kennusuke Kameshima, a right-sided full back or winger from Okinawa-based amateur
club Chatan, agreed terms. “‘Kenni’ is technically excellent, has a great first touch with a good range of passing and like most Japanese players I have encountered has an unbelievable work rate,” Baxter head coach Kevin “Squizzy” Taylor said. In Football Victoria news the state body announced last week that all its clubs had made the deadline to arrange payment of outstanding fees. Previously FV had claimed that clubs owed just over $2 million and threatened to suspend non-financial clubs from competition. However FV is yet to publicly announce that the oldest club in Victoria has withdrawn from competition. South Yarra was formed in 1928 and 96 years later the club has withdrawn from State League competition a week after forfeiting its Dockerty Cup tie with Mount Eliza. South Yarra is based at Fawkner Park and was competing in State 3 South-East which will now consist of 11 teams next season. South Yarra will continue to run a junior program and a women’s program as well as fielding teams in the Metropolitan Leagues. In other news iconic Frankston Pines figure Tommy Mitchell is the new team manager of Casey Comets. Mitchell has had various roles at Pines since joining the club in 1970 among them ground manager, team manager and committeeman.
He is a life member at Monterey Reserve and Pines’ scoreboard is named in his honour. Comets gaffer and former Pines player Billy Armour was delighted by Mitchell’s appointment. “He’s one of the best signings I’ve made this season,” Armour said. “His experience will be invaluable.” Meanwhile a unique event takes place at 11am on Saturday when Steve Keenan’s Wild Rovers take on touring Czech Republic side TJ Ostrovan at North Seaford Reserve. Seaford’s senior coach Paul Williams and assistant Steve Keenan play for Wild Rovers which were formed in 2009 and consist of former players with an average age of 50. The team regularly competes in fivea-side competitions and has been successful in Victoria and interstate.
