A cut, mow and trim above the rest PENINSULA Mowers has been owned and run by the Weatherley family for the past decade, with original owners Brian and Patricia purchasing the business as a legacy for their family. The passing of Brian has triggered daughter Elizabeth, and her partner Ammon, to purchase the business from Patricia and continue the legacy that her father began years ago. “Mum and dad created the business when dad was 70 as a future for us. We want to let everyone know we are still here and running Peninsula Mowers, with the same great and friendly service, and an even better range of products,” said Elizabeth, who has worked in the shop for ten years this year. “Ammon does the servicing and mechanical side, while Nina and I work in the shop, and it is working out really well.” Peninsula Mowers stocks brands like Honda, Stihl, Masport, Wolf Garden, and Atom Edges. “We sell a huge range of power equipment including snippers, hedge trimmers, chainsaws, and all your garden needs, as well as lawn mowers,” said Elizabeth. “We have the brand new Stihl battery range which means no fuel mixing and no cords. They are very convenient and great for safety as well.” Peninsula Mowers is at 119 Mornington Tyabb Road, Mornington. Open Monday to Friday 8am till 5pm and Saturday 8am till 1pm.

Last orders: Oasis manager Jess Makool is eyeing alternative sites for the pop-up cafe. Picture: Cameron McCullough
Pop-up pops down over permit Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au THE Oasis Pop-Up Kitchen in Bentons Rd, Mt Martha, has been forced to close over an “issue relating to the planning permit”. The kitchen – which “popped up” three months ago in its temporary home while a full-size Oasis bakery is built on 1.6 hectares on Nepean Highway, Mornington – was to close yesterday (Monday 21 August).
Mornington Peninsula Shire’s executive manager planning services David Bergin said the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal had ruled on 4 August that “the use of the land must stop”. He said council was powerless to alter the decision”. Oasis manager Jess Makool said she had endured a fractious meeting with shire officers over another matter in early June and, two weeks later, received a directive to attend VCAT over not having a planning permit. “Someone was unhappy with us,”
what happens on your floor when you’re not around?
she said. “I am not sure whether we had a planning permit in the first place, but they seem to have ignored the fact that [a food premises] was here for 20 years before we came along.” Ms Makool said a factor in the dispute may be that the Bentons Rd site was not commercially zoned like their former pop-up site on Nepean Highway, near Mornington-Tyabb Rd. Works are due to start there soon on a “multipurpose landmark” with restaurant, cafe, food market, function room,
gardens and a petting zoo. Since the VCAT ruling, Oasis has applied for a planning permit – which may take up to three months to obtain – and its 20 staff remain in limbo. “We have been busy looking for new sites and have a meeting at one on Monday which is only about a minute away,” Ms Makool said. “It looks promising.” She said the customer support her team had received had made them feel “especially welcome” on the peninsula. “To be honest, the whole issue in
some ways has been a good thing.” Mr Bergin said the shire “regrets the strain that the operator’s failure to comply with legislation may have put on the business and its employees and hopes that they can re-open soon for their customers and staff members”. He said the council had liaised with Oasis over the permit issue since early June. “Despite several verbal and written requests, the occupiers failed to stop using the site for a cafe/restaurant,” Mr Bergin said.

Tougher checks burn children’s day out Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au A CLASS of Mornington preschoolers was looking forward to an excursion to Mornington fire station last week – until the visit was cancelled at the last minute by firemen concerned they didn’t have the requisite Working with Children checks. Leslie Moorhead Preschool had arranged the visit for the four-year-old group to “increase their understanding and sense of community”. But the visit fell foul of laws introduced on 1 August which take a tougher line on the actual wording of the act which aims to protect children from harm. The episode highlights the added bite of the new requirements which many groups and organisations, such as the CFA, must adhere to when working with youngsters. The act now requires those needing checks include adults who “work” with children aged 18 or under. The term “work” includes voluntary work, practical training, and paid employment at a job which involves direct contact. An organisation is committing an offence if it asks a person to engage in child-related work before they have applied for a check. Mornington Fire Brigade operations officer John Townsend was sorry the visit had to be cancelled. “Changes in
the legislation hinge around the word supervision,” he said. “The word’s removal has created issues and the CFA has decided to take a stand and get all its officers checked.” Previously, a staff member of an organisation, such as the fire brigade, could legally work with children if a teacher or instructor was supervising. Now, that oversight carries little weight and the onus is on the staff member, and their organisation, to justify their right to close contact. Under the new rules – and to prevent any future embarrassment – the CFA has told its members wanting to take part in any of these programs to complete a Working with Children check. The new rules are causing concern for the Mornington Peninsula branch of the Disabled Surfers Association (DSA) which relies on volunteers. Although its committee has the necessary clearances, members believe it will be a “problem” for the 240-plus volunteers who turn up to help out at their two annual beach days. In many instances the volunteers are responding to requests for help on social media or in The News and register their names an hour or so before the beach day begins, usually at Point Leo. Many of the 150 or so disabled surfers are children who are accompanied by their carers – usually family members. For them to have a safe time in the surf the DSA needs many more
volunteers who are formed into squads supervised by committee members. The problems facing the Victorian branch were on the agenda at last weekend’s annual meeting of the DSA on the Gold Coast. Nepean MP Martin Dixon has written to the Attorney-General, Martin Pakula, asking that he “provide assistance to the Disabled Surfers Association Mornington Peninsula so they can more effectively transition to the new requirements, without being forced to cut their programs”. Mr Dixon said that, although the Coalition supported the amendments to the Working with Children Act 2005, the “government deserves to be criticised over their implementation of these changes, which have occurred with little consultation, poor advice to the community and woefully inadequate assistance given to those organisations which rely on volunteers for their operations”. Working with Children checks are free for volunteers but staff members of organisations pay $121 which, in the CFA’s case, is reimbursed. The test can be done online. Registered primary and secondary teachers, and police, are exempt. All organisations have a responsibility to create and maintain child-safe environments, and to assess if a staff member is suitable to work with children. With Keith Platt
FOOD will be available over summer at Point nepean from mobile vendors for a sixmonth trial being run by Parks Victoria. Picture: Keith Platt
Food trucks for Pt Nepean POINT Nepean is one of 11 national parks where food trucks will be allowed for a six-month trial. The summer trial in the Quarantine precinct will be followed next year by a winter trial starting in June. “The trial will provide an opportunity to test food and beverage services in appropriate parks without leaving a permanent footprint in the park,” Parks Victoria chief operating officer Simon Talbot said. “Mobile traders will need to meet certain criteria including environmental considerations, social benefits to the community and the ability to strategically align with Parks Victoria and the Victorian governments’ healthy choices guidelines.” Parks Victoria is
calling for mobile traders for expressions of interest to offer food and beverage services as part of a mobile food services trial. The trial licence term will be a maximum of six months from November this year to April 2018 for summer sites. Winter only sites will be available for three to six months starting 1 June 2018. Other parks in the trial are Baw Baw National Park, Lerderderg State Park, Maroondah Reservoir Park, the former Olinda Golf Course car park (adjacent to the National Rhododendron Garden), Silvan Reservoir, Westerfolds Park, Westgate Park, Yan Yean Reservoir Park, Yarra Bend Park and Yarra Ranges National Park.

For the love of reading By Karen Charlton*
WHO says books are dead? Pop into Farrell’s Bookshop on any Saturday morning and you’d be hard pressed to make a case: kids in sports uniforms, mums, dads, grandparents and latte sippers alike are shoulder to shoulder, musing over their next read. Books, it would seem, are alive and kicking, and no more so than on Saturday 12 August when Farrell’s Bookshop – a Mornington institution – celebrated Love Your Bookshop Day with face painting, graffiti wall and visits from authors Anna Pignatoro and Paul Kennedy. For Farrell’s, the day celebrated by independent bookshops around the country aimed to give something back to the reading community on the peninsula, which has kept the bookshop in business since 1978. “It’s a day to celebrate reading, books and ideas, and it’s a way of thanking our customers for shopping local,” owners Ian and Meredith
Mornington Peninsula Shire invites you to attend a ‘Free’ workshop to ‘Declutter for a Simpler Life’ on Thursday 7 September 2017 from 6.30 pm – 8.30pm in the Mornington Council Chambers, Cnr. Main & Queens Streets, Mornington. Book for Free: eventbrite.com/e/declutter

Horton said. “It not only keeps this local business running, it also supports the local publishing industry and ensures Australian stories are told.” Love Your Bookshop Day began as National Bookshop Day in 2011 when then small business minister Nick Sherry famously declared that bricks-and-mortar bookshops would “cease to exist within five years”. Festivities at Farrell’s will continue as Children’s Book Week kicks off in the last week of August, and ends with a visit from author (and radio presenter) Alan Brough, author of Charlie and the War Against the Grannies, 3pm, Saturday 26 August. Farrell’s celebrates its 40th birthday next year with a rolling list of special author events.

Peninsula high on animal cruelty list Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au MORNINGTON Peninsula is ranked seventh for animal cruelty reports and 39th on a per capita basis among Victoria’s 79 municipalities, according to a list of hotspots released last week by RSPCA Victoria. The RSPCA says it received 10,180 cruelty reports across the state in 2016-17 – or around 28 a day. Of these, 321 were concerns about the welfare of animals on the peninsula, which equates to one report for every 483 residents. The state-wide average is one report for 581 residents. Reports from the peninsula included 155 relating to animals with insufficient food, water or shelter; 100 relating to hygiene, grooming and housing conditions; 80 of underweight animals; 66 involving sick or injured animals not receiving vet treatment; 37 about animals being beaten or wounded and 34 abandoned animals. Of 321 reports received on the peninsula 161 involved dogs and puppies; 44 involved cats and kittens and 53 involved horses. RSPCA Victoria CEO Dr Liz Walker said understanding the rate of cruelty reporting and the different offences in various areas was critical to ensuring that the organisation could direct its education, advocacy and enforcement efforts to places where it was most needed. “This year, RSPCA Victoria has started working more closely with local councils to understand local animal welfare issues, and to put in place tailored local initiatives to educate owners and better protect animals.� As in last year’s data, reports in 2016-17 about
animals not receiving basic care far outnumbered all other offences reported. “It’s disappointing to see that, for the second year, too many animals were reported to us because of concerns about basic issues: food, water, shelter and vet care when they’re sick or injured. These kinds of problems are so preventable,� Dr Walker said. “Whether it’s asking family or friends for support, seeking assistance from animal welfare groups, or surrendering animals to be rehomed, we would strongly encourage owners who aren’t keeping up with the basics to seek help to care for their animals.� “In most cases, concerns reported to us are quickly resolved by our inspectors educating the owner or person in charge of the animals involved, and reminding them of their legal obligations to care for their animals,� Dr Walker said. “In some cases, a stronger response is needed: a notice to comply, seizing and taking an animal into protective custody, or – when all else fails – prosecuting.� RSPCA Victoria Inspectors issued 388 notices to comply, 433 advisory letters and 34 warning letters; laid 383 charges against 90 people, and finalised 90 prosecutions, with facts proven in 83 cases (92 per cent success rate). At the end of the financial year, 56 cases were still before the courts. Dr Walker said many of the 10,180 reports this year included allegations of multiple offences involving multiple animals. She said not every report resulted in a substantiated offence. Some concerns did not meet the threshold for an offence in Victoria, and others were not substantiated through investigation.

Unwanted ‘art’: Graffiti at Mt Martha Primary School is an eyesore and costs a lot to remove, police say. Pictures: Supplied
School’s unwanted additions MORNINGTON police last week executed four search warrants resulting in six arrests and the laying of 80 graffiti-related charges. Police recently joined forces with Mornington Peninsula Shire officers to identify those responsible for the graffiti that Acting Senior Sergeant Steven Duffee said was becoming prevalent in
the area. “But we still need people’s help to identify some of the graffiti,� he said. “If any of these photographs seem familiar, or you know who has committed these offences, please contact Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000 or Mornington police 5970 4900,� he said.

A JOINT operation in Langwarrin by police and sheriff’s officers, Saturday 12 August, led to 998 warrants being executed bringing in fines of more than $300,000. The police, from Somerville Highway Patrol and Frankston and Carrum Downs police stations, set up an automatic number plate recognition site on Cranbourne Rd. Two vehicles were clamped on the spot after their drivers had avoided several opportunities to pay fines or enter into payment plans. Police dealt with 28 traffic offences, including a drink driver who blew 0.112 per cent – at 9am in the morning. Three drivers were detected drug driving, 10 were unauthorised to drive – being unlicensed, disqualified or suspended – and six were for driving unregistered vehicles. Police charged three drivers and
impounded three vehicles – one for drunk driving and the others for driving while suspended. Sergeant Peter Martin, of Somerville Highway Patrol, said: “These joint operations are an essential part of our approach to policing and in holding people to account for their actions – outstanding sheriff’s warrants don’t just “go away”. “Those with warrants outstanding will eventually be dealt with. I suggest to anyone that may have outstanding fine warrants to contact their local sheriff’s office and make arrangements to enter a payment plan, rather than being dealt with at the roadside. “And, from a policing point of view, if you don’t have a licence, your car is unregistered or you are impaired by drugs or alcohol, then don’t drive – we may not get you every time, but with our ongoing operations we’ll get you eventually.”
THE rider of a Yamaha R1 sports motorbike performed a “mono” near the Bungower Rd on-ramp on Peninsula Link, Moorooduc, by lifting the front wheel. After slowing down for the speed camera at Eramosa Rd, he accelerated to 173 kph, 9pm, Thursday 10 August. Somerville Highway Patrol police manning their radar said the motorcycle then accelerated again to more than 200 kph approaching Golf Links Rd, with the windy weather visibly blowing the bike around. The 25-year-old rider, of Skye, was intercepted and is expected to be charged on summons with driving at a dangerous speed, improper use (loss of traction of the front wheel), and exceeding 100 kph. His motorcycle was impounded for 30 days with a release fee of $1032.
Search for driver POLICE are searching for a driver after a series of incidents where a car was driven erratically, causing many collisions in the Frankston area last week. The purple 2009 Nissan Micra was seen on Ashleigh Avenue and Karingal Drive before travelling along the Peninsula Link and then being abandoned in Baxter, 6.40pm, Monday 14 August. Police urge anyone with information to contact Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential report at crimestoppersvic.com.au online.

Shire bungle delays decision on hot springs Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au DEVELOPERS and objectors to a multi-million dollar hot springs and restaurant complex near Rye have been put on hold because of an administrative bungle by Mornington Peninsula Shire. A planning application for the complex on nearly 15 hectares in Browns Rd, Fingal, was withdrawn from last week’s planning services committee meeting because objectors were not given enough notice. The delay will enable them to be present and ask questions when the issue next comes before the committee. Planning services executive manager David Bergin said the report was pulled “due to an administrative error”. The item would be on the agenda for the committee’s 4 September meeting. A report by senior planner Alia Slamet recommended a permit be granted to Hao Yang Australia for the Tea Tree Hot Springs Resort, which includes a restaurant and spa. Ms Slamet said it had been decided not to hold a meeting between objectors and the developers because it would have been “unlikely to result in resolution between the two parties”. The 18 objections received by the shire included the development being inconsistent with the objectives of the Green Wedge zone; a danger of contamination of ground water; increased traffic;
loss of native vegetation and habitat; overdevelopment of the site; and the potential for accommodation to be added later. The shire’s planner said the use was compatible with the site and “satisfactorily responds” to development regulations covering the Green Wedge zone. Buildings on the land operate as the Hilltonia Homestead bed and breakfast. A planning assessment report prepared by consultants GHD and included on last week’s committee meeting agenda shows ownership the land was transferred to Hao Yang Australia in March 2013 for $3.5 million. A since-lapsed permit issued by the shire in October 2007 allowed a 52-room hotel, conference centre, spa and lap pool to be built on the site. Two extensions were subsequently allowed but a third application for more time in 2013 was refused. The land lies between the northern part of the Moonah Links Resort and the shire’s Rye landfill. Peninsula Hot Springs is about one kilometre south. Plans submitted by GHD show a five-winged building (maximum height 10 metres), car parking for 260 vehicles with a 150-car “overflow”, (400 patrons and 60 staff) and a “wellness centre” (spa and hot springs). The existing Hilltonia buildings will remain and continue to be used.

The birds are flying into oblivion Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au
Winners and losers: While the Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula areas have lost at least 40 bird species over the past couple of centuries others have found living near humans is not always bad. Pictures: Gary Sissons
previous three breeding seasons. However, birds such as the scarlet robin, Bassian thrush, red-browed finch and Jacky Winter are on the decline throughout Frankston and the peninsula. Mr Burrows believes these birds find it difficult living near humans, either through loss of habitat or through predation by cats and foxes. He said French Island may be the only place where adequate numbers of scarlet robins survive because of the absence of foxes. Even birds that move on when land is cleared or altered have trouble finding an available home “because there
are other species already there”. “Jack Winters were regularly seen around this area in the 1980s but we haven’t had any reports since 2000,” Mr Burrows said. “A southern emu wren was spotted at Tootgarook last year, the first after 25 years. But we’re not likely to get many of the [declining] birds back.” Mr Burrows said BirdLife Australia’s rare bird project was researching birds that had been declining or subject to habitat loss since 2008. Seven species being focused on are the black-shouldered kite, Australian king-parrot, scarlet robin, Bassian thrush, eastern great egret, red-browed

eastern great egrets, although their numbers noticeably decline with the draining of wetlands. Birds such as king parrots, galahs, rainbow lorikeets and corellas are on the increase, although their numbers will be limited by the availability of nesting hollows. Mr Burrows said there were about 220 species of birds living or regularly visiting the peninsula. The 40 species lost since the arrival of Europeans include emus, bustards and the orange-bellied parrot. “Birds can’t save themselves and we haven’t the expertise or ability to prevent their decline,” Mr Burrows said.

finch and Jacky Winter. “We have already established that the grey-crowned babbler no longer occurs in this region and the scarlet robin is now mainly restricted to French Island, the southern emu wren now occurs in only a few localities and is rarely reported,” he stated in an article in the September Mornington Peninsula Birdlife magazine. However all is not lost, with recent sightings of the thought-tobe-threatened crested shrike-tit and the possibility that there are more of the notoriously shy Bassian thrushes around than have been reported. There still seem to be plenty of

OVER the past few decades there has been no shortage of reports about bird species being wiped out or their numbers facing rapid decline. Most often these reports involve the northern hemisphere and birds that have to navigate several countries to satisfy their migratory instincts. But speak to Max Burrows of the Mornington Peninsula branch of BirdLife Australia and what seems a problem half a world away becomes an event in our own backyard. It’s not that long ago bird watchers were confronted by the local extinction of the grey-crowned babbler. Probably not a bird on everyone’s easily identifiable list, but a loss that was sadly added to the 40 or so species of birds that have disappeared from around Frankston and on the Mornington Peninsula since the arrival of Europeans. In recent years the plight of the hooded plover has so captured hearts and minds that a friends group was formed and was able to exert enough pressure to have dogs banned from the plover’s ocean beach nesting grounds within the Mornington Peninsula National Park. The group’s members also monitor and build fences around plover nests, which are sometimes washed away during big swells and extra high tides. The peninsula is thought to be home for about 70 of the state’s 550 hooded plovers and this year saw 13 chicks fledged, more than in the
Bid for boat ramps in Western Port Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au A STUDY by a boating industry-backed group has recommended building four launching ramps near Tyabb and adding another at Stony Point. Mornington Peninsula Shire has “noted” the plan which seeks to ease the “critical levels” of capacity facing recreational boat owners on both sides of the peninsula. The shire’s potential backing of suggestions by the Peninsula Marine Alliance could add 300 car and trailer parking bays for public use at Yaringa and at Stony Pt on the shores of Western Port. Land for the Stony Point parking bays could come through acquisition or lease of Defence Force land at HMAS Cerberus. The alliance’s study aimed to identify how to maximise the capacity, capability and efficiency of marine infrastructure on Western Port and identify potential new sites for boat ramps. It follows the shire’s controversial decision to expand and refurbish boat ramps at Rye. The study, outlined to council’s 8 August meeting by team leader – strategy Russell Smith, stated that Yaringa was the only site on the peninsula’s coast that could be developed as a new, large scale boat ramp without significant public opposition. The site at the end of Yaringa Rd is partly covered by mangroves and requires dredging. It adjoins the southern boundary of the commercial Yaringa boat harbour Council has asked the alliance to submit a community consultation strategy before seeking any statutory approvals for the projects. The report also discussed the need for money for
web cameras and other technological innovations as well hiring ramp rangers during peak periods “to improve ramp effectiveness”. The alliance says it is a not-for-profit industry association of marine enterprises, such as boat builders, marinas, yacht clubs, seafood producers and marine equipment manufacturers. It received a grant through the shire’s boating safety facilities program for the report completed late last year by consultants BMT Design and Technology. Mr Smith said the peninsula had about 10 per cent of Victoria’s coastline and that it was “well placed to provide good access to the two bays.” “However, coastal development is always a complex and contested issue with a variety of user groups, environmental issues and growing populations competing.” The report did “not foresee council having to provide any major funding for any of its proposals, although it may be involved in managing the facilities”. The report recommends building a public boat ramp at Yaringa on the site of the 1960 Yaringa marina on Crown land at the end of Yaringa Rd. Mr Smith’s report stated that any development would have to give “particular attention to the environmental significance of the environs”. The shire did not respond in time for inclusion in the Western Port News when contacted (Monday). The 135-space Stony Point public boat ramp has three lanes and a caravan park run by Crib PointStony Point foreshore management committee. “Boating capacity is at a critical level on the Mornington Peninsula,” Mr Smith said.

Triggers’ escape a Dimension dilemma FLEDGLING surfboard makers Paul and Phil Trigger thought they had a great idea when it came to naming and identifying their surfboards: “Let’s start with the First Dimension”. This was in the late 1960s when they were shaping boards in a lane at the back of their parents’ house in Bonbeach. By the time they were getting close to the Eighth Dimension they realised there was a need for a simpler numbering system. “What’s going to happen when we got to the 125th or 150th?” Paul Trigger remembers asking his brother. Instead of deciding to start with the number one, they decided against numbering their boards altogether, and that’s the way it’s been ever since. A couple of weeks ago the Triggers – who have shops at Point Leo and Frankston - received a call from Western Australia by someone offering one of the early “Dimension” boards. Paul trigger remembers taking it on a weekend's surf at Wilsons Promontory and quickly deciding “I didn’t like it”. He’s not sure if it’s the Third or Fifth Dimension, but it was built about the same time the American pop group The Fifth Dimension changed its name from The Versatiles. The group’s most memorable hit was “Up, up and away”, theme song for a nowdefunct Australian airline. You’ve got to wonder, and marvel, at how those US musicians heard about (and were inspired by) the Triggers’ Dimension numbering system. And while the musicians kept the name, the Triggers went back to just
building boards. Something they’ve been doing for the past half a century, with no end in sight. Paul Trigger says their older boards keep popping up. In the 1960s the surf industry was in its infancy and getting raw materials was not always easy. The fibreglass cloth with resin to coat a shaped foam blank was heavy and coarse. Putting their Trigger Bros brand on the board required using Letraset, a plastic lettering system that involved rubbing the paper-backed letters straight onto the surfboard blank. The Triggers chose and old English font which had previously been used by their father and an uncle on their “Trigger Brothers” grocery shop in Hesse St, Queenscliff. While the branding changed over the years, the brothers have now reverted to that old typography. And the boards? Well they have progressed from those early Dimensions, keeping pace with the trends to multi-fins and lighter materials. But the enthusiasm for coming up with the right shape and finish has not waned, as is shown whenever a new board is placed in the racks at their shops or, if custom built, handed over to its new owner. There’s anticipation and an appreciation by looking at its lines of how the board will perform in the surf. Keith Platt
Teed up: Josh Shaw is the new driving force at Flinders Golf Club.
New pro at Flinders JOSH Shaw has been appointed head professional at Flinders Golf Club after serving four years under outgoing professional Gavin Coyle. General manager Chris Poulton said Shaw began as a PGA trainee at the club. “He has matured into a fully qualified PGA professional, with a love of the industry, a passion for teaching and a drive to provide the best service to members and guests on the Mornington Peninsula,” Mr Poulton said. “The committee acknowledges that Gavin Coyle has left an indelible mark on the club, and while there are many aspects of Gavin’s work and style that they hope Josh will continue to provide, there are also areas where he can improve on and drive … over the next few years.” Mr Poulton said the PGA traineeship had provided Shaw with the right education, training and mentoring “to embrace his role moving forward”. “Flinders Golf Club is well regarded by golfers and is one of Australia’s true coastal golf courses,” Shaw said. “On the point of Western Port, it has spectacular conditions and scenery, and is an experience not found at many golf courses in Australia, or even the world.”
Board talk: Paul Trigger with one of the first boards he made with his brother Phil in the late 1960s - a board that helped take them out of their Dimension era.

THREE volunteers from Bittern Fire Brigade will compete against colleagues from Australia and overseas in the 2017 Melbourne Firefighters’ Stair Challenge at Crown Plaza, South Bank, Saturday 2 September. The race to the top will see Robin Adair, Dan Beattie and Matt Zerbe climb the building’s 28 storeys in a simulated rescue – wearing up to 20kg of protective gear and breathing apparatus. “We are training hard every day,” said Dr Adair, who is also director at the company Australis Biological. “Our team, nicknamed the Bittern Stair Slayers, is in shape and ready to go for their first stair challenge.” Money raised will go to the Melbourne Fighters Charity Fund to support post-traumatic stress disorders (PTSD), mental illness, and reduce
suicide in the emergency services and defence forces. The Black Dog Institute provides frontline assistance to those in need. “All of us have been touched by suicide and depression and wanted to help,” Dr Adair said. “We run up the 123 steps at Somers 10 times a session making 1230 steps.” He expects the stair challenge to take up to 10 minutes, with about 20 minutes of air contained in the breathing apparatus. When training on a stair machine at the gym, Dr Adair sets the gauge to 28 floors while lugging 16kg of gear. “That’s really hard and I am dripping with sweat and puffing very hard at the end,” he said. Tax deductible donations for the event can be made at firefighterclimb.org.au Details: Matt Zerbe, Bittern Fire Brigade, 0417 556 529. Stephen Taylor

Woman charged over drug haul MORNINGTON police searched a car in Fleet St early Thursday morning and allegedly found eight grams of the drug ice, 80 ice pipes, several mobile phones and $15,000 cash. Acting Senior Sergeant Steven Duffee said the night shift van “did well” in intercepting the 30-year-old Mornington woman, 2am, Thursday 17 August. “Due to their diligent patrolling this arrest has removed a large quantity of drugs from the street,” he said. “Mornington police will continue to patrol at all hours and if you are doing wrong you will be caught.” The woman was taken to the police station for interview and later accompanied police to her home. There, police allegedly found a further 50 grams of ice and a range of allegedly stolen
goods, including power tools. The woman was charged with trafficking a drug of dependence and dealing in the proceeds of crime. She appeared at Frankston Magistrates’ Court, Thursday, for a remand hearing and will likely appear at the same court at a later date.

TAKE MY BREATH AWAY PROUDLY set at one of the highest points in Mount Martha, offering some of the best views you will see of Port Phillip Bay heading up to the skyline of Melbourne, this impressive home measures an astonishing 511 square metres ( 55 square). The home instantly impresses with beautifully tiled floors to the entry foyer leading you through to a magnificent formal lounge which opens out to one of two expansive timber decks. Off to one side is a media room with richly carpeted floors and a sleek timber bar, and over in the west wing are three bedrooms with built-in robes that share the downstairs bathroom, a separate toilet and a powder room. After the impact of the formal lounge with its curved feature wall and elegant stylings, the contrast to the equally handsome, yet somehow more convivial main living zone creates the impression of two superb homes in one. Bright and spacious with great use of timbers and smart black bench tops and splash backs to the kitchen, the upstairs zone definitely has that reassuring vibe of a true family space. Incorporated into the kitchen space is a cosy meals area and across a tiled walkway is a separate formal dining room that can be closed off from the lounge for private dinner parties. The upstairs entertaining deck is absolutely breathtaking with the glass balustrades and retractable shade sails adding to the sensation of watching the incredible panorama before you through the ultimate wide screen television. Completing the top floor is the master bedroom, which rather than make a grand and opulent statement is simply just a lovely bedroom with a breathtaking view. There is a separate walk-in robe and the ensuite features stylish plantation shutters, twin vanities and a walk-in shower. The 1450 square metre corner block has access from Hove Road to a double garage, with a second double garage under the roof line of the home. ď Ž

Puerto de El Boyar in Andalucia, Spain: This was Mark Krieger’s first serious climb since leaving Galicia, northern Spain, two weeks earlier. Above, The Cyclists, Dutch sculptor Jits Bakker’s artwork is in Loulé, Portugal. Pictures: Supplied
Two-wheel freedom in Portugal, Spain ROSEBUD’S Mark Krieger has spent three years working on his latest book: High Spain Drifter, based around cycling in Europe. In the story, the keen cyclist sets off on another of his fascinating journeys – this time around Spain and Portugal’s Iberian Peninsula with Roz and daughter Emma in tow. The former teacher taught English and History at Mornington Secondary College for 22 years from 1992, after arriving in Rosebud the year before. “Of our five children, four have followed in our footsteps. Each has taught or is currently teaching on the Mornington Peninsula,” Krieger said.
“Cycling-wise, I have spent considerable time, along with Roz, travelling through many parts of Europe, including France, Austria, Switzerland, Slovenia, Italy, England, Scotland, Portugal and Spain. “I cycle up Arthurs Seat as often as I can – more than 4000 times since 2006 when I started counting. Perhaps there’s a touch of impulsive obsessive disorder in that but I still enjoy it.” The genre of the latest book is a combination of cycling, travel and history, along with the occasional film portrayal, written with a touch of humour, he said last week. Following in the tyre marks of the
Tour de France and Spain’s Vuelta a España through the Pyrénées, Krieger recalls many of cycling’s memorable moments: some inspirational, and some that the sport would rather forget. Crossing the border into Spain with summer approaching, they find the Catalonians in festival mode. Travelling west, he is determined to conquer a treacherous goat track near Oviedo after two failed attempts. Arriving in Portugal, they are enthralled by the country’s history and events like the ‘Age of Discoveries’, the 1755 earthquake, the Carnation Revolution and the humble beginnings
of Fado. As for the present, they savour the food and the distinctive way it is presented. Large cities are not normally on Krieger's to-do list, especially when cycling but, drenched in history and abundantly alive in the present, Lisbon proves an awesome exception. Just as evocative in its own way is the small Spanish town of Trigueros. Once the sun goes down, its neardeserted streets come alive. Continuing through the south of Spain, the travellers visit the Sierra Nevada range where Krieger attempts another first: to cycle up its highest peak, Pico de Veleta. Much higher and
harder than any mountain he’s ever dreamed of tackling, its final kilometres of treacherous road make even the thought of continuing seem foolish. Fast approaching the town of Solsona, where his cycling trek began, Krieger recalls some of the memories he and Roz have shared on their journey, while the thought of “where to next?” is never far away. The book, along with his earlier Lycra, Lattes and the Long Way Round (published in 2011), are available at Rosebud Book Barn and La Brocante, Red Hill South. It’s also on online bookshops.

Time sensitive Centrelink, so be prepared to wait I have a similar problem and do not want to go on the internet to reach Centrelink (“Centrelink blues” Letters 15/8/17). What I do is get a cup of tea and a good book and dial 132 300. Do this one hour before they close at 5pm. Yes, you will have the read the book and finished the tea, maybe your second, but hang on and do not hang up. Even are after they close you will be spoken to (in my case 5.15pm) and get your problem sorted. I also forgot to ask about he statement that used to be sent every year, and yes I had to call back again. But do it late and be prepared. Good luck. Faye Atkinson, Rosebud
Death by choice The Catholic church has been mobilised to stop the assisted dying bill going through the Victorian parliament, with Archbishop Denis Hart urging all churches in his archdiocese to campaign against the Bill. I have just finished listening to the TV news, hearing about the atrocities a priest has committed on 50 plus children, some as young as six, one held down by her father so the priest could abuse her. I’m not against religion, we all have a free choice and I’m not sure what will happen in the hereafter. If we are to be judged entering the next life I don’t think religion will be the benchmark as throughout history it has caused more wars and fighting and pain and suffering than anything. I hope we are judged on the good we have done. I’m sure all Catholics take pills to ease pain. I’m sure thay take antibiotics to cure diseases; they have blood transfusions and would use many other wonderful medical treatments rather than suffer. I don’t see using the gift of medicine to depart this world is wrong. If it’s a sin to die with the help of drugs I’m willing to take my chances. If the Catholics are correct and their religion is the correct one then heaven will be full of Catholics. I suggest the Catholics get their house in order, before interfering in the lives of others It’s illegal to let animals suffer, why should we? Geoff Budge, Rosebud
Right to choose I refer to your article “Church lessons on protesting” (The News 15/8/17). I was concerned at the misinformation and damage this article could do to very important pending legisation, especially with the inclusion of the main points of the [St Macartan’s Catholic Church, Mornington’s] sample letter. I would urge The News to follow-up with a more informative article as to what the Voluntary Assisted Dying Bill is actually about – because it is not about homicide or assisted suicide as the local Catholic church’s template/sample letter would appear to suggest. I am a lawyer who has worked in both the aged care and health sectors for many years. I have an active and passionate interest in seeing this Bill become law so that I and others may have the right to exercise our free will when the time comes (and our end draws near) so that we can choose to avoid unbearable pain and suffering. I do not want that a minority religious sector imposes its will on me and others and seeks to deprive me of this right. If they choose to suffer, fine, but don’t dare suggest we all should, The emphasis being that this should be an individual’s free choice. It is important that people who may wish to lobby parliamentarians have a clear, correct understanding of the terms of the Bill and are not unduly influenced by bias and scaremongering tactics of the ignorant. Leonie Schween, Mt Martha
‘Stupid’ gas plan How stupid can we be - planning to import gas, while also exporting it (“AGL chooses Crib Point for gas terminal” The News 15/8/17)? Burning filthy bunker oil in ships to transport
PAGE 42
Mornington News 22 August 2017
less filthy fossil fuel LNG back and forth around the globe would surely have to be the most inefficient and illogical use of resources. And it’s not just greenhouse gasses that we should be worried about, as air pollution kills more Australians than car accidents, as noted by a Senate inquiry into the health impacts of air pollution in 2013. Shipping emissions are responsible for high levels of particulate matter as oxides of nitrogen and sulphur, which lodge in the lungs, enter the blood stream and cause heart and lung disease. It’s been calculated that shipping emissions are already responsible for at least 60,000 deaths a year worldwide, especially in areas close to shipping lanes. Back in Crib Point, as well as the ships chugging away in dock, there’s also the environmental and health hazards from transporting coal from the LaTrobe Valley to Crib Point, then converting it to hydrogen right under our noses – while also creating various air pollutants and greenhouse gases. Jenny Warfe, Dromana
Labor’s plans Locals are aware that for years the Bracks and Brumby Labor governments have continued to try and force the dirtiest of industries down to Crib Point, including dirty and polluting bitumen and urea plants. This would have meant B-double trucks on our already damaged roads 24/7. More recently the Andrews government has been behind a push to locate a coal-to-hydrogen industry on the shores of Western Port at Hastings. Even in its trial stage this project would see a 1.5 kilometre long facility built on the shores of Western Port and 24/7 coal trucks. There is much the Andrews government is not saying about this proposal, including the fact that AGL is also one of the partners attempting to push through a hydrogen-to-coal conversion proposal at Hastings. This would once again see our area being treated as a toxic dumping ground for the state Labor government. I met with AGL to work through the specifics of its proposal for Crib Point (“AGL chooses Crib Point for gas terminal” The News 15/8/17) and sought an assurance that this plan will never lead to Crib Point becoming a B-double truck depot and haulage location. I advised AGL that our community will welcome the jobs wholeheartedly. However, we would continue to monitor closely not only the works that AGL is currently planning, but also any future plans they have to ensure they remain consistent with the character Crib Point residents want for their local area. Neale Burgess, MP for Hastings
Protect dolphins Reading news of upgrades of boat ramps normally wouldn’t concern me, I own a boat and know how busy it can be over summer launching and retrieving. Since moving to Dromana I have only ever seen one pod of dolphins off Safety Beach, on the very first day I went there swimming. It made my day, a great beginning to summer. However, I watched as more and more jet skis arrived each day, with the aim to apparently ride all day at full throttle and use as much fuel in as short time as possible. I know there are many reasonable minded jet ski operators, but too many seem to be drawn to a speed around at all cost until it’s time to go back on their trailers. We live in a stress filled time but, with the promise of more water craft competing for space on the bay, I wonder about the effect this must have on the wild dolphin population, which I believe is under massive environmental threats, including disturbance from shipping, pollution and plastic waste. I haven’t seen the dolphins since, perhaps they’ve moved to another quieter area of the bay, I hope so. But at the same time I have seen a steady increase in rubbish along the beaches and along the road sides of the Mornington Peninsula, I fear the bright summer days of summer that bring us such pleasure will become a nightmare for the defenceless dolphins.
Any upgrades to boating facilities should be accompanied by a protection zones for marine mammals and increased awareness among the boating fraternity. Bill Boyle, Dromana
Liberals paid costs Andrew Raff has commented on a conference arranged by [Flinders MP] Greg Hunt and [Environment Minister] Josh Frydenburg, two worthy and hard working federal ministers (“Feral calls” Letters 8/8/17). Like a lot of opponents of these men, he cannot get his facts straight. The cost of this event was covered by funds raised legitimately by the Flinders Electoral Conference. Not a single cent of taxpayers’ money was involved. It is time that all correspondents to this paper make sure their assertions are correct. Peter Grey, Rye
‘Tree terrorists’ Following receipt of notification from Mornington Peninsula Shire that council workers would be coming around Safety Beach to perform some tree maintenance, I and my neighbours waited with baited breath. Our street is not a thoroughfare and had no encroaching growth over the road, some of the trees are ornamentals planted by residents. Eventually in came the tree terrorists who indiscriminately hacked and sawed, leaving some trees unbalanced and in a parlous state. They even took it on themselves to trim back shrubs that were not posing any risk now or likely to in the future. In one street a perfectly good sheoak was completely sawn down to within inches off the ground, leaving a major tripping trap for pedestrians. I’d be more impressed if our rates had not been wasted on this destructive exercise, but rather put into repairing damaged footpaths and roads. If something isn’t done to repair the footpaths and clean them up from the massive overgrowth of kikuyu grass the shire is likely to face someone suing them following a serious fall. Elizabeth Albiston, Safety Beach
Gum backing I live in the Oakridge estate (Padua Estate) Mornington and concur with the comments made by Janet Turnbull (“ Gum problems” Letters 8/8/17). I have a strong affinity for indigenous plantings in suitable locations; unfortunately the large eucalypts on the nature strips of our estate have reduced the overall amenity of the area. Many of the tree roots have broken through the surface, causing damage to footpaths and gutters resulting in an unsafe and unsightly situation. I have lived in this estate for more than 30 years and have witnessed residents battling unsuccessfully to establish a front garden of their choice to a point where they just give up. It is extremely difficult to establish a green interesting garden when plants have to compete with large eucalypts not to mention the demand they place on water supply. I am not directly affected by eucalypts on my nature strip, however I enjoy living in this area but the appearance of the estate is disappointing. The eucalypts have contributed to the estate having an arid and uninviting appearance. Homeowners should be able to enhance the appearance of their properties without having to compete with large gum trees. I feel sure that if council allowed removal of the offending trees and replanting with suitable non-invasive species this would encourage and enable residents to plant the gardens they would like. In addition this would enhance the overall appearance of the estate. Pat Spedding, Mornington
rently in VCAT opposing a proposed development (that we found out about by serendipity) it seems council has approved another development before the land has even been sold (the council will get almost $1 million from the sale of the land – certainly a conflict of interest). And when were they going to tell residents? It will advertised later this month, as a fait accompli when the decisions were made mid-2016 and approved in early August. If this disdain for a community was an isolated incident then perhaps an excuse could be found, but it seems to be a recurring pattern. While I commend the council for standing up to adverse changes to planning legislation made by bureaucrats in Melbourne, it is hypocritical of them to request help from local communities in supporting their position while ignoring the concerns of locals about local planning matters. Council’s process must be improved. In the meantime, I urge everyone to join the various community groups that advocate for our environment and our voice. Bianca Felix, Bittern Residents’ Action Group (BRAG)
SPA decision I would like to commend the Mornington Peninsula Shire Council for making a final decision as to the location of the Southern Peninsula Aquatic centre (“Pool site chosen beside the park” The News 15/8/17). I sincerely hope that this will shut the “pro SPA on the foreshore people” up once and for all. I would like to state here and now that, despite the ill-informed ramblings and propaganda of a few retired councillors, a couple of serving ones and a soon to be retired state politician (not to forget the local chamber of commerce) my late wife Eunice, the members of the friends of Rosebud Beach and Foreshore and me were never ever anti pool. Our objection was always against the decision to place it on the foreshore, but facts were distorted by ill-informed statements by the above e. It was because of these people that Rosebud had to wait all these years because they were continually told by the state government of the day to select an inland site (I have documents through FoI to back this up). Unfortunately, facts gave way to ill-informed irrational statements. But now, fortunately, Rosebud will finally have its pool at an appropriate site and hopefully all those involved will work to that end. John Cain, treasurer Friends of Rosebud Beach and Foreshore
Wary of council I was dismayed to read the flurry of letters (The News 8 August) about the Mornington Peninsula Shire Council’s decision regarding a boat ramp in Rye. I know nothing about the ins and outs of the situation but I can very clearly see the anger at the council’s decision to go its own way and disregard the community’s wishes. At least the Rye community seems to have had some notice of what was occurring and had the opportunity to comment. Here in Bittern we keep finding out after the fact that various developments have been proposed or approved. While individual residents and representatives of the Bittern Residents’ Action Group are cur-
Artwork or footpath fiasco? “TOURISTS must think we are a fourth-world town,” Mornington’s Scott Crowe said after observing shoddy footpath repair work in Main St. “I was told future repairs would be in same material as original,” he said. “It is certainly not helpful for traders.”

No time like the present for lodging your tax WITH a suite of online tools that make lodging easier than ever before and the majority of prefill information now available, Tax Commissioner Chris Jordan said now is an ideal time to do your tax. “We have developed a suite of online services that have made it easier than ever before to get your tax return done, and now we have most pre-fill records such as wages, bank interest and dividends ready for taxpayers and agents to use. This means most of the work is done for you,” Mr Jordan said. “Your information can be accessed via myTax or can be uploaded by your agent. All you need to do is review the pre-filled information and add any deductions, it’s that easy. “We’re finding that people who lodge their own return through myTax are finished in less than half an hour. It’s one of the reasons why we have a 93 per cent satisfaction rate with users.” Mr Jordan said many taxpayers were taking
advantage of the tools the ATO had released which make tax time easier and faster than ever before. “Our ATO app makes it easy for individual taxpayers to manage their tax and super affairs on the go. One of the best features of the app is our myDeductions tool which allows you to take a photo of receipts using your smartphone, and store them in one convenient spot,” Mr Jordan said. “You can then share your records directly with your agent or upload your deductions directly to your tax return. If you haven’t used it yet, download the ATO app today and start snapping today. You’ll be able to use the data next year to make sure you don’t miss out on any deductions due to faded or lost receipts.” Mr Jordan said 2017 was shaping up to be a record-breaking year for lodgment numbers. “We’ve received almost five million returns already this year, which is an increase of 360,000 on this time last year,” Mr Jordan said.
“Over three million of these lodgments have come through tax agents, an increase of two per cent from 2016. Almost two million Australians have completed their returns themselves using myTax, up 13 per cent from last year. “So whether you lodge your own return or use an agent, the numbers show that it’s easier and faster than ever before to get your tax done – which also means getting your refund back even faster.” The ATO has already issued 3.6 million refunds worth a total of almost $8.5 billion. More than 96 per cent received their refunds within 12 days. Taxpayers can lodge online using myTax or by going to a registered tax agent. You can check your agent is registered through the Tax Practitioner’s Board website. If you are using an agent for the first time or using a different tax agent to last year, you need to contact them before 31 October 2017 to ensure you are on their lodgment program.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...
Frankston prepares for show of patriotism Compiled by Cameron McCullough NEXT Saturday, September 1st is to be a “Red Letter Day” for Frankston, and thousands of people will be given an opportunity of demonstrating their pent-up, patriotic, and loyal spirit. We know we have had a win, but we feel we are to and our hearts will not fail in the meantime. Our determination and burning patriotism will be by the boys in the trenches and will hearten and stimulate them. But no one can assist to show there is not going to be any downheartedness and every nerve will be strained for victory. The children will be specially well catered for. Mr McMuir who was deputed to collect on their behalf has had no difficulty in obtaining money and sweets. Given a fine day, the Pageant of Loyalty will be a monster success. In the evening a Grand Concert will be given by the Langwarrin Military Company and this is sufficient for a really first class entertainment. *** Mornington Junction. The local Progress Association held their Arbor Day on Saturday last August 18th, when the idea of planting trees for the soldiers was first mooted. The committee met with the usual cry of the Pessimist, “Who’s going to pay for the trees?” and’”You’ll never get the money for the guards? But we kept on working silently and surely with the result that the number of trees was oversubscribed for, each one guaranteeing to supply a guard of sawn timber. ***
AT a committee meeting of the Wattle Club, held in the Mechanics’ Hall, on Thursday evening last, it was decided to donate the following amounts: £10 10s to the Frankston Red Cross; £10 to obtain Xmas boxes for boys in the firing line and £25 to procure a Combination BedChair for uses at the Base Hospital. *** THE Shire Elections passed over very quietly in this Shire on Thursday last. Crs Oates and Murray being returned unopposed for the North and Centre Ridings respectively, and Cr W. P. Mason was returned unopposed for the Seat in the North Riding, rendered vacant by Cr Plowman. In the East Riding Cr Alden was opposed by Mr J. D. Hodgins and the letter was elected by a majority of 25 votes, the numbers being :—Hodgins 149; Alden 124. In the Mornington Shire there were five candidates for the three seats. Two of the retiring candidates (Crs Blacker and Nunn) were returned, but Cr Korner had to retire. The following were the votes polled :—J. G. Barrett, 471; R. Nunn, 434; J. Blacker, 426; F. M. Linley. 381; W. A. Korner, 205. *** Australian Battleplanes. WAR OFFICE APPRECIATION OF GIFTS. The following letter from Lord Derby, Secretary of State for War, under date of 19th June, 1917, to me, as Honorary Organiser of the “Australian Air Squadrons’ Fund” speaks for itself, as to the value each additional Battleplane is in helping to secure command of the air, upon which
everything now depends “Dear Sir, - Lord Darby desires me to thank you for the copies of your second appeal for the Australian Air Squadrons’ Fund, and to say that the question of air supremacy is one of such vital importance at this time that the fine work of your fund and The patriotism of your subscribers cannot he over-estimated, and is fully appreciated by the War Office. (Sgt) W. H. T. OTTLEY. *** Cupid On Crutches. WHY THE GIRL OF TODAY DOES NOT HESITATE TO PROPOSE TO HER DISABLED LOVER. THE love of a man for a maid and the love of a woman for a man are two totally different emotions. War has proved this to us. Every time a maimed warrior leads his bride to the alter he is demonstrating the strength of woman’s love. Cupid can use a crutch to help storm the citadel of a woman’s heart and the fact that hundreds of women are marrying the men they love, although these men are “broken in the wars,” goes to prove that woman’s love does not hinge on mere physical attraction. “WHEN I COME BACK.” When a woman loves a man she is willing to marry him whether he has left parts of himself on the battle field or whether he is physically perfect. That is where men and women differ. Man looks for perfection when he goes a-wooing, and there is hardly a man living who would go to a cripples home in search of a wife. The deformed woman usually reconciles herself to spinsterdom, and cupid
ignores her when he fares forth with a quiver full of golden-tipped arrows. Yet he will work in the cause of the maimed man, and especially of the heroes of the moment. “When I come back !” whispers the man, and the girl understands. If he comes back a wreck of his former self she does not hang back. She is ready to compensate, by her love, for the suffering he has undergone. The empty sleeve does not frighten her. “It wasn’t his limbs only that I loved” she’ll tell you. And, could you look down into the depths of her heart, you would find that the demands of war had increased her love. Some people tell you that women marry cripples out of pity, but pity is often the key that unlocks a woman’s heart; and what do keys matter when doors are open ? Let us have a little more pity, for it is a beautiful thing. CRUEL CONVENTION. War has acted as a Juggernaut to many of our old laws and conventions. Ten years ago we would have condemned the maid who proposed, yet we have her today, and the world says “God bless her!” Take the case of the maimed warrior who is sensitive. He imagines that honor forbids him to ask any woman to tie herself to a cripple. The woman knows, because her intuition is sharper than man’s, where the book of love is in question. And if she loves the bashful, sensitive hero, she proves herself when she ignores false modesty and old conventional laws that demanded that women should be the quarry rather
than the hunter. Under ordinary conditions we still prefer that man should propose, but war has created extraordinary conditions, which permit women to exercise their common sense when it seems necessary. A woman’s love is so mixed up with the maternal instinct. The very best women want to mother their men. The crippled man arouses this mother love, which makes for lasting happiness. THE TWO WOMEN. Most women who love suffer through man’s independence. They know themselves to be of his life but “a thing apart,” and are always getting hurt because they count for so very little. When a woman marries a cripple she knows she is going to count in his life, and that knowledge means a lot. War is giving us many cripples; that is the greatest tragedy of the times. But a deformity from accident bears no comparison with an inherited one There is no taint of heredity to worry about. It is wonderful to some people that women can marry our blinded heroes but it is not wonderful to women. If love is blind, why should not love come through blindness? The women whose soul is more lovely than her face can find the kingdom of love more easily with a blinded mate than with one who can see. There are two women who count in the life of every man—the mother who bears him and the woman who helps him to find his better self. *** From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 25 August 1917

Sharks end Tigers’ hopes PENINSULA LEAGUE
By Toe Punt BONBEACH put an end to Seaford’s season on Saturday, knocking them out of the finals’ race with a convincing 47 point victory. It was a key game for both teams, Bonbeach needing to win to maintain its place in the top three and getting the double chance, while Seaford needed to win to have any chance of playing finals. However, as one very good footy judge said at the Mornington v Mt Eliza game a week ago, even if Seaford had beaten Bonbeach (and Mt Eliza had lost to Mornington), they still would have missed out on the finals. Mt Eliza thumped Langwarrin on Saturday and given its supreme percentage, would have finished in fifth place. As it turned out, the difference in the end was four points and percentage. It was a good warm up finals-type game for the Sharks, who found the going tough in the first half despite leading at the major interval. Things were still tight at three quarter time (13 points) before the home side booted six goals to one in the final term to record a 14.15 (99) to 7.10 (52) victory. Trent Dennis-Lane booted four majors to win the league goal kicking award while their stars in Jackson Casey, Shane McDonald and Dylan Jones really took control of the match, especially in the end. Aaron Walton played a lone hand for the Tigers with five goals.
Eagles soar: EdithvaleAspendale thumped Mornington. Picture: Scott Memery
The Sharks can now look forward to what will be a cracking Qualifying Final against neighbour Edithvale-Aspendale this Sunday at Frankston Park. For Seaford, it’s time for reflection on what turned out to be a wasted season. The Tigers copped injuries to key players at the wrong time but they did lose their way for a six week block, which hurt them in the end. They learn from that and the desire should be there for a big pre-season. Edithvale warmed up to the big final with a monster win against Mornington, 16.20 (116) to 5.8 (38).
In what many considered to be a ‘danger game’, the Eagles blew the Dogs away in the second quarter and went on to boot 6.10 to three behinds in the second half. Mick Meehan booted four goals and Matt Clark three for the Eagles while Mark Mullins was at his best in defence, along with Stevey Mannix. With the resignation of Chris Holcombe as coach, it is now believed that the Doggies will pour all of their attention in getting back favourite son and current Cranbourne coach Simon Goosey back at the helm. The club
needs Goosey! Mt Eliza carried over its last quarter heroics against Mornington last Sunday and put Langwarrin to the sword in front of a home crowd on Saturday. The Redlegs booted six unanswered goals in the opening quarter and led by 54 points at half time. It then booted 10 goals to four in the second half with Shaun Knott and Karl Lombardozzi booting five goals each. ‘Lomba’ played forward last week too which raised a few eyebrows but with Justin Van Unen out of the team for the year, as well as ruckman Grant Goodall with a knee, the Redlegs needed to try something different. It worked. Jordan Capkin has also found form at the right time, booting four majors. Teenager Zac Foot was outstanding for the Kangas, as was Gerard Brown and Blake Harkness. It will be very interesting to see how the Langwarrin Football Club reacts to finishing on the bottom of the ladder in season 2017. One thing is for sure, if nothing changes, nothing changes. Pines warmed up for its Elimination Final showdown against Mt Eliza at Chelsea on Saturday with a solid 13.12 (90) to 4.5 (29) victory against Karingal. Sixteen-year-old Liam Cox was at it again for the Pythons with a couple of goals. Cox is the teenage son of former Python assistant Paul and was coached in the juniors by premiership player Glenn Cornell – a superb Pines connection.
Luke Potts and Paul Scanlon dominated through the middle and Corey Ash was up to his old trucks of shutting down opponents also. Karingal star of the future Darcy Hope was outstanding for the Bulls. Karingal will announce their new coach on the RPP Footy Show (98.7FM or livestream on RPP – The Voice of the Peninsula) this Saturday after Andrew Sharp would not commit to the job in 2018. Frankston YCW was very unconvincing but did what it had to do to win the game against Chelsea on Saturday. Once again, like it has done on many occasions this season, the Stonecats left it until the last quarter to shift up a gear and get the job done. The home side trailed by one point at three quarter time after being held to three goals in three quarters, however, booted five goals to one in the last to win 8.12 (60) to 5.6 (36).

Buds breathe life into Nepean race NEPEAN LEAGUE By Toe Punt A WEEK is a long time in football. A little over seven days ago Rosebud drew with Hastings and came out of that game looking highly unlikely of winning the 2017 Nepean Division premiership. Wind the clock forward a week and the premiership race is well and truly alive after Rosebud inflicted Sorrento’s first loss of the season. The Buds jumped out of the blocks and booted seven goals in one of the best quarters we have witnessed for the season. Not only did the Buds hit the scoreboard (6.2.38), Sorrento also made the most of its opportunities and trailed by just 13 points (4.1.25) at the first change. When Sorrento booted five goals to one in the second quarter and entered the major interval with a seven point buffer, it appeared that the Buds had fired all of their shots and simply needed to hang on. Not only did the Buds hang on, they went on to win the match, 13.11 (89) to 13.7 (85). In was an enthralling last quarter after just one point separated the sides at three quarter time. On a couple of occasions Sorrento appeared as though it was going to hang on, however, like the week before against Hastings, Rosebud just kept coming and booted the final goal of the match. This time the final goal got Rosebud in front, not level. The Buds needed to get some things right from last week and Jackson McRae coming into the side and playing a key
Picture: Andrew Hurst
defensive role on Nick Corp was a massive influence on the final result. Midfielders in Sean Downie, Fletcher Hustwaite and Brenton Payne were able to hit the scoreboard on multiple occasions and Matt Baker joined Keegan Downie once again in attack and they booted two goals each. Seb Krumeich and Bart Wallace did outstanding jobs defensively too while Ben Dwyer was masterful in the ruck. Leigh Poholke booted four goals for the Sharks to win yet another league goalkicking award, while Leigh Treeby and Marcus Gardner booted three majors each. Rosebud coach Adrian McBean said it was a good finals-type game.
“It was a great finals atmosphere and they’re the types of games you want to be involved in at this time, win lose or draw,” McBean said. “There were a numbers of factors in our win but more importantly we got our team defence right. “I thought Hastings was really good the week before and we were lucky to get away with a draw. “Before the Hastings game I think we got away with a lot of stuff and didn’t get hurt on the scoreboard but Hastings proved last week that we can. “We just got a few of those things right against Sorrento and we can’t underestimate the job McRae did on Corp – it was sensational.
“We really wanted to win this one and it was good reward for effort,” McBean said. Red Hill needed to beat Tyabb by five goals more than Dromana beat Rye by on the weekend to sure up its place in the finals – it achieved its objective. The Hillmen posted a massive 21.15 (141) to 2.4 (16) win against the Yabbies with 12 players hitting the scoreboard. Chris Irving was the major contributor with four goals while Sean Marchetti has found his best at the right time. The win was enough to see the Hillmen finish six per cent clear of Dromana in fifth place. Dromana did everything it could too though, beating Rye 21.17 (143) to 6.8 (48). Rikki Johnston, in arguably his final game for the Tigers as a player (he is contracted to coach next season), booted eight goals in a best on ground performance. The Demons, who have had a rebuilding season, blooding 10-plus new Under 19s, fielded one of their most inexperienced sides for the year. There is a little doubt that after coming so close to finals, there will be a little fire burning inside of the Tigers in the pre-season in preparation for 2018. Crib Point finished the season in the best way possible, smashing Somerville in its final game of the season. The Magpies booted 10 goals to two in the second half to blow the home side away 14.9 (93) to 6.14 (50). Mitchell Chopping, who played in the reserves last week, was one of the Pies’ best yet again while experienced players Luke Herrington and Taylor Stratton were outstanding. It shows that if eve-
rything clicked for the Pies, they were capable. Somerville President Andy Palmer announced he would be stepping down from the top job and coach Bevan Malloy cannot commit next season either for family reasons but will continue to run the bench on match days. It is believed Andrejs Everitt will step up to the senior coaching role next season. The Eagles’ nest will be an interesting place to keep an eye on in the preseason. In the final game, Frankston booted 19.14 (128) to 9.6 (60) to get the win against Pearcedale. Sam Fox and Zac Longham booted four majors each and Alex Harnett starred for the Bombers. It’s been a long season for the Panthers. Leigh Stewart selected his 49th player on Saturday to play in the seniors – we all think that’s got to be some kind of a record with the average being somewhere around 35 players for a team not playing finals. The positive is the entire list is now aware of what it takes to play senior football.

Langwarrin, Skye still have fate in own hands SOCCER
By Craig MacKenzie THE race for the State 1 South-East title and a spot in the 2018 NPL is on in earnest after Mornington’s 4-2 win over Langwarrin at Lawton Park on Saturday. The result cuts Langwarrin’s lead at the top of the table to just two points but Gus Macleod’s men still have their fate in their own hands while secondplaced Mornington has to win its last two matches and hope that Langy slips up in the process. Langy is at home to Clifton Hill then finishes the season away to Malvern City while Mornington is at home to Malvern City then away to Morwell Pegasus. A team of volunteers worked for hours on Saturday to get Lawton Park playable for the big derby. Armed with brushes, squeegees and pitchforks they eventually won the battle against the elements and although the reserves match was called off referee James Morgan gave the thumbs up for the senior game just 30 minutes before kick-off. Mornington struck the opening blow when Aaron Root was at the back post to head home Ryan Paczkowski’s cross from the right in the 30th minute. The visitors went further ahead a minute into first-half injury time when Langy defender Andy McIntyre slid down trying to cut out Sammy Orritt’s cross and could only deflect the ball past Langy keeper Robbie Acs. Within a minute McIntyre almost redeemed himself with a near post header that was cleared off the Mornington goal line. In the 57th minute Mornington went further ahead after McIntyre gave the ball away allowing Paczkowski to charge into the left of the area and his cutback was diverted past Acs by Langy defender Nick Thorogood for another own goal. Langy hit back a minute later when Mat Luak passed to Aaran Currie who turned and struck the ball past Mornington keeper Kris McEvoy from the right of the area. Currie’s back post header from Connor Belger’s corner in the 69th minute made it 3-2 but that was all the joy Langy would get from this contest and Currie was substituted a few minutes later. The tireless Paczkowski missed a chance to settle the issue in the 85th minute but dinked his shot past Acs and wide of the far post. Then a long ball downfield by Paczkowski in the 89th minute was misjudged by Langy substitute Navin Velupillay allowing Wayne Gordon to
Talented teenager: Travis Ernsdoerfer joined in the goalfest at Baxter Park on Saturday. Picture: John Punshon race into the area and square the ball for a tap-in by Orritt to make it 4-2. The State 2 South-East ladder tells a sorry tale of local sides with Seaford United now relegated and Peninsula Strikers staring down the barrel in second-bottom spot. Seaford lost 6-2 at home to Old Scotch last weekend while Strikers lost 3-0 away to Heatherton United on Saturday night. Second half goals to Ali Sanad, Meldin Klehic and Owen Walker accounted for Strikers whose night was made worse when Scott Buchanan was sent off the bench in the 79th minute. Another local State 2 outfit Frankston Pines went down 4-2 at home to Beau-
maris on Saturday but enjoys a fivepoint buffer over Strikers. Pines’ goals came from Matty Davis and CJ Hodgson while Beaumaris’ scorers were Gianni Allebi (2), Kieron Kennedy and Zach Lemke. Despite last weekend’s 2-1 home loss which gave Knox City the title, Skye United still is in the hunt for promotion from State 3 South-East. Billy Armour’s men are now third on goal difference behind Stan Webster’s Brandon Park which drew 2-2 with relegation-threatened Dingley Stars and Brandon Park travels to Skye in the final round of the season. Skye opened the scoring on Saturday in the 32nd minute when striker

Mornington News 22 August 2017
Daniel Attard controlled the ball from a throw-in on the left of the area then turned and casually volleyed it into the top far corner. Mathew Hames almost levelled five minutes later but his left-foot shot struck the far post then Nehemiah Verscharen’s curled shot a minute later was spectacularly tipped over by Skye keeper Jonathon Crook. Wide midfielder Jordan Avraham levelled in the 54th minute with a neat first-time strike after Grant Lane’s low ball from the right into the near post. A looping Marcus Collier header in the 66th minute forced Knox keeper Joel Becker to punch clear then a bizarre goal in the 85th minute decided the issue. Lane curled a shot toward goal from the left of the area and Crook was well positioned but the spin on the ball and the blinding glare of the sun combined to send it past his grasp and into goal to make it 2-1. Skye’s last good chance came a minute later but substitute Lawrence Komba shot wide from close range. Baxter smashed Harrisfield Hurricanes 6-1 in their State 4 South fixture at Baxter Park on Saturday. Louis Griffiths started the rout in the 8th minute then teenage dynamo Travis Ernsdoerfer made it 2-0 in the 13th minute. Alan Lipsett chimed in with goals in the 17th and 23rd minutes and big Dan Disseldorp added his name to the scoresheet in the 35th minute as the Hurricanes were swept away by a fivegoal first-half tsunami. Harrisfield’s sole reply came from Nick Tsantlogiannis three minutes into the second half but Baxter substitute Justin Brown joined in festivities two minutes from time to round out the scoreline. Rosebud Heart twice came from behind to record a gutsy 3-2 home win over Hampton Park United in their State 4 South clash on Saturday. Adrian Miranta caught Heart on the break and finished well to make it 1-0 in the 29th minute. A superb finish by Cory Osorio in the 53rd minute made it 1-1 but straight from the restart a long ball from Hampton Park and a defensive mixup by James Liddle and Matthew Pearce allowed Mitchel Hawkins to lob Heart keeper Sean Skelly and restore the visitors’ lead. Heart pressed hard for an equaliser which eventually came in the 77th minute via a superb corner from manof-the-match Blake Hicks which saw Daniel Hodge head home to make it 2-2. Three minutes later a Hampton Park short corner was well read by Tony Orr

who intercepted and passed to Dave Greening who was well inside his defensive half. Greening turned and charged toward goal going past three defenders before finishing superbly for a dramatic winner. Somerville Eagles recorded their fourth win of the State 5 South season and skipped four points clear of the relegation zone with a 2-1 victory over second-bottom White Star Dandenong at Dallas Brooks Park on Saturday. A Cormac Doherty header from Eric Manhanong’s free kick in the 8th minute opened the scoring and Doherty made it 2-0 from the penalty spot following a handball inside the area in the 31st minute. Aldin Pjevo’s penalty in the 54th minute made it 2-1 but the Eagles held on for an important win. Southern United beat the senior NTC side 4-1 at Monterey Reserve on Sunday. Southern captain Candy FerreyraBas opened the scoring in the 8th minute and a lightning-quick break in the 25th minute engineered by wide left player Elizabeth Robers and finished by Savanna Anastopoulos gave the home side a two-goal cushion at the interval. Southern’s US import Courtney Hueston scored twice in the second half while NTC could only muster a solitary response. Powerhouse Southern central defender Mikhaila Bowden was impressive. Southern’s under-15s lost 2-0 to NTC in an earlier match with a low shot from just outside the area by NTC’s Gemma Leo in the 33rd minute opening the scoring. Leo completed her double in the second half but Southern made the elite youngsters work hard for their win. Southern used five under-13s in its matchday squad. Southern’s under-18s have struggled this season following a massive turnover of players in the off-season and NTC accounted for George Perpina’s side 6-0. Paige Zois and Olivia Suarez both scored twice and other scorers were Nia Stamatopoulos (penalty) and Kiara Hronopoulos. Most local sides are inactive during this weekend’s catch-up round but not Southern which has an opportunity to clinch the NPLW under-13s championship. This weekend’s games: SATURDAY 3pm: Southern Utd v Geelong Galaxy Utd (Monterey Reserve, U13s 10am, U15s 11.30am, U18s 1pm), Somerville Eagles v Pakenham Utd (Barber Reserve).

Boyd makes another pitch at international glory By Ben Triandafillou TALENTED baseball pitcher Jackson Boyd, of Langwarrin will again represent Australia as he heads for the under-18s Baseball World Cup in Thunder Bay, Canada. Boyd, 17, flew out last Saturday 19 August and will have eight lead-up matches before the opening round of the World Cup on Friday 1 September. Boyd made the selection for the 20-player team, following an impressive performance at an Australian academy camp on the Gold Coast earlier this year. This will be the first time that Boyd has made the Australian World Cup side and he said making the team is a whole other level. “I’m going to be playing with the best of the best and they could even be future Major League Baseball

787 Tennis searches for “new players” By Ben Triandafillou THE unique 787 Men’s Tennis Competition will enter its 80th season this month since being founded by Mount Eliza resident Kevin Morley in 1977. The private doubles competition has been played on member’s home tennis courts in and around the surrounding areas of Mt Eliza for the past 40 years. It is now entering a new phase and is looking to increase their number of members with a “new players” drive. 787 Tennis are seeking interested players with or without a home tennis court and who are ideally aged 35 years plus. 787 committee member John Patchell said you don’t need to be a champion to join the
Bell has golden run at championships By Ben Triandafillou OUR Lady of Fatima student Joel Bell returned last week with two gold medals and a top 10 finish in the under-12 School Sport Australia Cross Country Championships. Bell, 12, joined the Team Victoria Cross Country team after finishing fifth in the regional cross country and was given the opportunity to run at the championships in Hobart from Friday 11 August to Monday 14 August. He took everything in his stride and helped the under-12’s Team Victoria side earn an overall gold medal. Bell was also awarded a gold medal in the 1500m composite relay. Bell said that just getting the experience to run in Hobart and meet new friends the highlight of his trip. “We went really well and the track was really tough with a 300m hill,” he said. “I really just want to thank my mum and dad for taking me everywhere and helping with the travel.” Bell is part of the Mornington Little Athletics and is now looking at running a marathon or triathlon in the near future.
competition and residing in Mt Eliza is not a prerequisite. “We have a lot of fun – it’s competitive but still very social,” he said. “It’s a great competition and you get to go and enjoy some incredible facilities.” “You get time to mix and meet a bunch of people. You might need a plumber to fix an issue at home but you might have just played with a plumber who can help, so you never know who you might meet. The 787 tennis competition plays every Saturday afternoon and will play its first round of its 80th season on Saturday 26 August. For any further information contact John Patchell on 0418566651.

stars,” he said. Boyd, who was part of the Southern Mariners, a representative charter for the Victorian bayside suburbs, is no stranger to performing at the top-level. Last year the Southern Mariners managed to reach the senior level championship game at the Little League World Series in Bangor, Maine, United States and in doing so became the first Australian side to make the finals of a World Series tournament. The Southern Mariners journey started in Geelong where they won the state championships in January last year before taking out the national championships in NSW later in May. They then went on to triumph at the Asia-Pacific Championships in The Philippines which secured them a spot in the World Series. Boyd said making it to the World Series was an achievement in itself but to do as well as they did wasn’t really expected. “We won our way all the way up to the World Series where we managed to finish runners-up,” he said. “We didn’t even think we would win a game over there so coming second was a massive shock.” Boyd and the under-18s Australian side is now set to face world number three, Korea, on the opening day of the 2017 Baseball World Cup.

Parkdale cricketer gets “massive” opportunity By Ben Triandafillou PARKDALE secondary student, Joshua Sugden, represented Victoria for the second consecutive year at the National Indoor Cricket Championships in Mackay, QLD last month. Sugden, 14, was given the opportunity to captain the second under-15s Victorian team and was able to lead the side into fifth place. Sugden said the team trained for close to three months before the tournament to decide who would represent the state. “Having the announcement two weeks before the tournament that I would be captaining the Victorian side was massive,” he said. “It was a big achievement as that was my main goal and was something I was aiming for when doing all the training leading up to the event.” Sugden said most of the matches they played at the cham-
pionships were pretty close but noticed a big difference playing in Queensland this year compared to Dubbo last year. “It was a really good tournament and learning experience. “It’s completely different playing in Queensland to what it was like last year in Dubbo as the ball swung a lot more because of the weather and the heat.” “It was a much different atmosphere with all the little things making a big difference.” Sugden has played in the Parkdale senior’s side and has been playing in a super league tournament for the past few months in Cranbourne where he captains the fourth side. Sugden, a recipient of the $500 Local Sporting Champions grant, met with the federal Isaacs Labor MP Mark Dreyfus to thank him on Monday 21 August. The grant went towards the championship’s fees as well as equipment and playing gear.

Get fit at Fernwood Fitness Mornington GOING to the gym can be really intimidating, especially for women. But at Fernwood Fitness Mornington, it’s about more than just creating a safe space for women to workout – it’s about creating a place where women can be themselves and work on all aspects of wellbeing in their life, both inside and out. For owner Keirsten Wallace and her dedicated staff, the focus is to support women in their wellbeing and self-confidence, creating an environment where they can come to feel good about themselves and get some balance from the stress of their lives, whatever that stress might be. Whilst this might involve a workout, yoga class or personal training, it’s also about good nutrition, a positive mindset and looking after the mental wellbeing of gym members. This is one of the reasons Keirsten, a qualified reiki practitioner offers treatments inside the gym to bring a holistic approach to wellness. Fernwood Fitness Mornington has a huge range of classes on offer in addition to personal training, run club and a sauna to help those tired muscles after a session.

Rapid Tune Automotive Services RAPID Tune Automotive Services are Melbourneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fastest growing automotive franchise, and since February 2015 we are lucky enough to have one in Mornington. Thanks to owner Rino Frisinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s love of the Mornington Peninsula, he started Rapid Tune Mornington two and a half years ago, working alongside mechanics, Justin and David. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have always loved cars and been interested in them, and after being with Rapid Tune for ten years, decided to combine my love of the peninsula with my business,â&#x20AC;? said Rino. Rapid Tune Mornington specialise in general services, brake repairs, transmission services, all suspension, clutch and steering work. Rapid Tune uses the latest in modern procedures and equipment, servicing and repairing all makes and models, with highly experienced and qualified motor mechanics. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have a lot of repeat customers as our goal is to offer value for money, expertise, and customised care that is second to none. At Rapid Tune our aim is to provide a personalised trusted service and treat every vehicle as if it was our own,â&#x20AC;? said Rino. Rapid Tuneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s growing success is primarily based on customers returning again and again for all of their automotive needs. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable and will have your car back to you as soon as possible. With a reputation for being courte-
ous, professional, and flexible with booking times, Rapid Tune Mornington has already become an automotive business with corporate and individual clients. Rapid Tune is the best place to have your car fully looked after, whether it is a general service, a specific problem, or a roadworthy certificate.
If you want to keep your new car warranty and maintain optimal safety and performance then logbook servicing is for you. Automotive manufactures are extremely particular these days. The manufacturers insist on their vehicles being serviced a certain way at recommended and specific schedules. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our fully certified mechanics at
Rapid Tune have a firm understanding of the log book criteria and are able to complete all log book service requirements on any make or model. To maintain your new car warranty and aid in the re-sale value of your vehicle, your logbook will be stamped and all paperwork completed in compliance with the manufacturer,â&#x20AC;? said Rino.
Rapid Tuneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s expertly trained mechanics can also assist you with suspension and steering repairs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Failure to maintain your wearable chassis components can have devastating results. Faulty or worn suspension can cause a great increase in stopping distance in the event of an emergency situation. In an aversive steering situation (like avoiding a child that has run out on to the road) worn or faulty shock absorbers will transfer the weight of your vehicle unevenly, causing a loss of steering and vehicle control. All of the Rapid Tune team have customer service and your best interests at heart,â&#x20AC;? said Rino. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For our special customers who bring in the newspaper coupon, they will enter into a draw to win some cash at the end of the month,â&#x20AC;? said Rino. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you suspect your car has a braking problem, then bring it in today for a comprehensive brake check. Rest assured as part of every service package we will thoroughly check your brakes for wear and tear.â&#x20AC;? Rapid Tune Mornington is open Monday to Friday, 8am till 5.30pm, and Saturday 8am till 1pm Rapid Tune is at 9/205 Mornington Tyabb Road, Mornington. (Next door to Horseland Mornington).
