Too many units: Mt Martha residents opposed to a high density housing development brave the elements to show their opposition. Picture: Yanni

Upset at high-density housing Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au A ROW is brewing over a proposed high-density housing estate in Mt Martha in which 47 units and townhouses will be crammed onto one big block.

The 180 Bentons Rd site with its existing large, old homestead on five acres could be transformed into highdensity living with up to 28 single storey units and 26 two-storey townhouses.

Bentons Blossom Pty Ltd previously asked for 52 units in the $45 million project but reduced this to 47 in the hope of winning approval. The company propose blocking off access to busy Bentons Rd and, instead, linking three narrow internal roads with 5.5-metrewide Valerie Close and Jendalyn Close – much to the concern of residents.

The planned average 292 square metre blocks in the $45 million project will be dwarfed by properties of more than 800 square metres in adjoining streets.

Residents who have signed petitions and circulated objections among their neighbours say the site, bought last year for $5 million, should be limited to 19 homes.

They say the planned high density will bring the “inner-city” to their former semi-rural area, causing the loss of amenity and character.

Mornington Peninsula Shire had previously knocked back the proposal but the reduction in scope means it would probably succeed at VCAT, residents

have been told. They fear the narrow 3.5 metre internal roads will not be capable of handling large vehicles, such as fire trucks in an emergency and garbage trucks on their weekly rounds.

Despite the units and townhouses having double garages, residents say a lack of room means garbage and recycle bins will need to be stored inside – meaning one car will have to be parked in the street, adding to traffic congestion.

“It’s a mess,” says Valerie Close resident Paul Carigg. “This development

could change the face of Mt Martha.”

He said covenants on block sizes were not being followed. “The development was originally for 60 blocks, then 52 which we objected to and now 47,” he said.

“We have been advised that the council will probably have to accept it because it satisfies state government guidelines.

“They won’t even have space for bins which will probably be lined up in Valerie Close.”

RETIRED racehorse Tarawera enjoyed being put through his paces by triequithon participant Seumas Marwood at Coolart Farm, Tuerong, on Wednesday.

The 11-year-old racer was formerly trained by Fran Houlahan and Brian Johnston at Mornington Racecourse until they retired last month. His wins included the Australian and Crisp steeplechases.

Now in retirement, Tarawera has transitioned as an equestrian eventer, which combines dressage, cross country and show jumping. His next race is in Racing Victoria’s Off the Track Triequithon, Caulfield, Saturday 27 August.

The event aims to “shine a light on life after racing” for older racehorses, and gives aspiring and well-heeled riders the chance to compete for a $15,000 prize pool.

Marwood, of Pakenham, regularly brings Tarawera to Coolart Farm to brush up on his jumping skills under the watchful eye of former Olympic show jumper and property owner Jamie Coman.

Coman is considered one of the country’s top show jumping coaches who has a long association with Off the Track thoroughbreds.

Shire ‘all clear’ for changes at Martha Cove Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire has agreed to change land use definitions, increase building heights and the number of dwellings at the Martha Cove residential and marina development at Safety Beach.

Amendments to the planning permit approved by the shire last month give the green light for buildings apartments and shops in the area designated Martha Cove Village Centre.

The number of dwellings allowed at Martha Cove is now 1167, an increase of 114.

The original Martha Cove permit was issued in 1999 and in 2002 City Pacific estimated the project at $650 million, including 900 residences.

The latest successful application to amend the planning permit follows a presentation to councillors in January by Sydney-based developer Denarke Pty Ltd ATF Martha Cove Vineyard No. 1 Trust, a company which is also selling housing sites and boat berths at nearby Brindabella Point. Denarke bought the land in 2014.

Councillors were divided on the issue, with Crs Antonella Celi, David Gibb, Tim, Wood, David Garnock and Graeme Pittock being in favour and Crs Hugh Fraser, Tim Rodgers, Bev Colomb and Andrew Dixon against.

As part of its application to amend the permit, Denarke provided councillors with traffic and commercial impact reports from consultants it had hired.

The May 2016 traffic report by Ratio: consultants states: “The provision of a substantial surplus in parking provision, especially on-street parking for residential visitors and retail commercial uses customers and other visitors, will ensure sufficient provision for even the highest summer holiday season peak demands.”

The economic impact assessment by MacroPlan Dimasi showed the planned shops would have “some impacts” on shops at Dromana and Mt Martha but “it can be concluded that a net community benefit will result from the proposed development, particularly as the development will provide greatly increased shopping

choice for local residents while also creating job opportunities for the local community”.

Buildings heights are also being varied to allow 10 metres in five areas as well as the Martha Cove Village Centre.

Roofs and facades can exceed eight metres elsewhere providing the “internal floor levels [are not] raised above levels that would be achieved if the overall height limit was eight metres”.

In an extended description, “harbour commercial facilities" can now include art gallery, bank, nursery (retail), post office, service shop, shop, showroom, sail maker, spar maker, boat rigger, flag maker, take away food tavern, totalisator agency, restaurant and, office.

The approved plans for the 6.4 hectare Martha Cove Village Centre include a “marina hub” with a cafe and support facilities and services for the marina, one 1000 square metre shop, several small shops and a 200-seat restaurant.

The largest part of the site is devoted to housing: 215 apartments and 100 “townhomes”.

A public space – Anchorage Park – lies behind a block of three-storey apartments and three-level homes.

The proposal presented to councillors in January was outlined in a large, glossy 168-page Martha Cove Village Centre Development Plan Report (“Shire asked to clear Martha Cove plans”, The News 5/4/16).

The proposal is described as “a contemporary interpretation of the peninsula character”, and cites developments in Florida, Sweden, France, Spain, Perth and Queensland (Paradise Point) under the heading “Project Exemplars + Precedence”.

The village centre for Martha Cove is also described as “a habitat of modern lifestyle inspired by the spirit of the Mornington Peninsula”.

The village centre site is proposed to be subdivided into 13 “superlots”, either for apartments, “townhomes” or shops.

In one part of the document setbacks are described as “minimal” so they will “contribute to the urban character of the village centre”. Further on in the document most superlot setbacks are described as “zero”.

Close community: The green fields leading to the water’s edge at Martha Cove are earmarked for three-storey “townhomes” and shops, top; while, above, houses and apartments are already nearing completion overlooking the next staged development.

Long ride to deliver message of comfort Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au A CFA career firefighter is riding across Victoria to raise awareness of mental health as a result of his experience with depression.

Wangaratta-based operations officer Terry Heafield stopped off at Mornington fire station on Friday for morning tea and to speak of his experiences.

His told firefighters to seek help and not be ashamed if they were depressed. He said depression should be seen as an ailment, not a weakness.

The Mornington stopover was part of the Frankston to Rosebud leg of the trip which will take him 2500km through country towns and ending at Geelong where his brothers are also firefighters.

Heafield said he had gone undiagnosed with depression for a long time, with his family blaming the pressures of firefighting for his ill-temper and dark moods.

Now that things are out in the open, they are confident he is back on level ground, emotionally speaking.

His efforts have put much-needed focus into his life and wellbeing. “I cannot believe the support and interest that my ride has achieved,” Heafield said.

“My goal is to help just one person and not allow themselves to get to the point that I did.

“While this goal has already been achieved, I will continue to try and help others. The ride is a major step in my recovery as I would never have thought of doing anything like this in my life.

“I would like to have discussions with as many people as I can along the way and hope that everyone will get involved. I would like to hold discussions at locations where I will be resting for the night but am happy to do anything on the journey.”

The Facebook page Don’t Do It Alone allows people to make contact follow the ride.

Reprieve for councils facing the sack Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au MUNICIPAL officers have been accused of blunders and mistakes that have seen councillors across the state fail to fulfil a state government directive to adopt a new code of conduct.

The government last week was forced to take urgent legislative action to avoid sacking 13 councils and standing down nine individual councillors after a report from the Local Governance Investigations and Compliance Inspectorate.

The report listed Frankston as one of the councils that failed to meet the signing deadline and Mornington Peninsula Shire councillor Hugh Fraser faced being stood down for adding “signed under protest” to his signature.

“I signed off on the new code of conduct in front of the CEO Carl Cowie as required and within time. I have had no contact from them as to a problem - which I would have thought to have been a courtesy if there was a problem, which there is not,” Cr Fraser told The News in an email last Wednesday.

“As you know, I together with the mayor Cr Graham Pittock, Cr Tim Rodgers and Cr Tim Wood QC voted against council adopting this code of conduct. It contained a number of irregular, to say the least, clauses as to delegates, confidentiality, and no criticism clauses inserted by management and councillors which limit what councillors can say, discuss and do.”

Cr Fraser, a barrister, believes the code of conduct will restrict his input to the shire's Audit Committee.

Frankston MP Paul Edbrooke told parliament on Thursday that the Acting Local Government Minister Richard Wynne “blamed administrative blunders and incompetence in council administration and said they had failed in their duties”.

Shire CEO Carl Cowie did not respond to requests for comment from The News.

HUGH Fraser Among the 10-page list of expectations and behaviours, the code adopted by the shire makes it punishable for councillors to divulge confidential information, accept gifts other than of “token value”, “malign” other councillors for their decisions, and use council resources such as mobile phones and cars, for personal use.

The code backs up state government reforms introduced last year to deal with rogue councillors, who will now face an independent conduct panel that can impose six-month suspensions.

After the meeting in June Cr Fraser said the council was trying to push through changes before the deadline, calling the draft put up by management a “scissors and paste” job, inconsistent with the Local Government Act. Cr Fraser said the act already contained confidentiality clauses to promote transparent council business, but that the revised code of conduct departed from this and would prevent debate.

“The result is a repressive uncertain code which, under pain of a misconduct allegation, could be used to stifle democratic debate by councillors in council and the community.”

Mr Edbrooke said the new legislation intro-

duced to Parliament will allow councillors to review and amend their codes of conduct up until 22 February next year.

Council elections will be held across the state on 22 October.

“The new requirement to sign a code of conduct in front of the CEO within one month, which 66 of the 79 other councils were able to fulfil, was simple and very clear. Councils were advised on multiple occasions about this requirement,” Mr Edbrooke said.

“The vast majority of Victorian councillors were able to understand it. Councils were first notified of the new requirement at the end of 2015 — ample time I would have thought.

“What my constituents are asking is, ‘How can we trust these people to make extremely important decisions in our interests if they cannot even sign a form properly within a month?’, ‘If I don’t pay my rates, I get fined. If I am two minutes late getting back to my car in a council carpark, I get fined’.

“It is not mental gymnastics to sign a piece of paper in front of a CEO after being asked to do it plenty of times, but there are a lot of questions from our community that deserve answers because we are coming up to council elections of course and councillors need to prove to us that they are competent enough to do the job.”

The Premier Daniel Andrews said the government would step in so councillors are not disqualified “in the interests of ratepayers”.

Mr Wynne said the non-complying councils had admitted “to gross incompetence in not meeting this simple requirement, and they have asked the government for a solution to ensure ratepayers don’t suffer as a result of these mistakes”.

“Communities should be able to rely on their elected councillors to behave with the utmost integrity and professionalism at all times, so it’s important they abide by codes of conduct that reflect these values.”

Wrong date: All shire rates notices mistakenly list 29 February as a deadline day for payment next year.

No extra day at any rate ‘THIRTY days has September/April, June, and November/All the rest have thirty-one/Except February alone/Which has twenty-eight days clear/Twenty-nine in each leap year.’

So goes the rhyme, although there are variants, taught to children to remember how many days are in any specific month in any given year, but it was seemingly forgotten at Mornington Peninsula Shire council which added an extra day to next year’s calendar.

Rates notices posted out to peninsula property owners show the third instalment should be paid before a ‘29/02/2017’ deadline.

The date 29 February 2017 does not exist as, unlike 2016, it is not a leap year.

But puzzled ratepayers should have no fear, the shire wants to make it clear, the cost of late payment will not be dear.

“It was an error on the front of the rates notices. The correct date is supplied on the back,” communications and media manager Mark Kestigian confirmed.

“They won’t be reissued. Even with the incorrect date, ratepayers won’t be penalised if they don’t pay on the day.

“They will at worst get a gentle reminder notice in late March.”

Any late payment notices will hopefully be dated 31 March 2017 at the latest, not 32 March.

When healthy additives aren’t enough

Changed hands: Sages Cottage in Baxter has been sold to Wallara Australia which will use the farm for training programs for adults with different abilities.

New role for cottage SAGES Cottage Farm, Baxter, has been bought by not-for-profit service Wallara Australia to expand its training services for adults with different abilities.

The not-for-profit organisation had been leasing the 38-acre property for the past three years from Menzies, a support service for disadvantaged youth. It aims to carry forward its vision for the farm and support some of the most vulnerable people in the community. “We’ve already engaged with Rotary, Frankston RSL, Brockhoff Foundation, Mornington Peninsula Shire Council and a number of corporates, all of whom are assisting us with the development of the site and the innovative programs and activities we are able to offer adults with disabilities,�

Wallara’s Karen Scholey said.

Training programs for those at nearby special schools were offered

by Wallara last year and the farm has quickly become the agency’s fastest growing site, with 24 young people based there.

They build independent living skills through innovative programs on the farm or in the community, and there is a long waiting list for an extra 10 places from January, Ms Scholey said.

Another farm feature is the property’s suitability for weddings and functions which earn income to offset operating costs.

A partnership with caterer Going Gourmet has turned the rustic barn into a popular wedding venue.

Every function at Sages Cottage helps support Wallara’s training programs.

It aims to make the property more accessible to people of all abilities and expand its facilities so more adults can live there and take part in innovative programs and activities.

PARENTS who think “healthy� foods are better for their children’s health and behaviour should learn more about food labels, warns additive campaigner and researcher Sue Dengate.

Ms Dengate is speaking at Mornington Secondary College, 7-9pm, Monday 29 August, at the request of Mt Martha dietitian and nutritionist Joey De Backer, who is happy to share her experiences and that of her daughter Isla in the struggle against allergies. “My daughter was a colicky baby, waking every hour overnight, often crying inconsolably and kicking her legs, and then she developed eczema when we introduced solids and always had rosy red, scabby, pimply cheeks,� Ms De Backer said. “As a dietitian, I knew food could be causing these issues and so we cut out dairy foods early on, but that only helped a little bit. “When Isla was 20 months I read Sue’s book Fed Up and realised food chemicals must be the problem. “We did an elimination diet and within three weeks her eczema went from weeping, itchy and red to completely healed with no visible traces.

Her sleep and behaviour improved immeasurably, she was a different child. And my partner’s hay fever disappeared, too.�

Ms Dengate says identifying and finding harmful additives and foods containing them can be difficult: “Parents really need to know what to look for.�

Dangerous additives may appear surreptitiously: “There’s a yellow tide of natural colour annatto 160b coming into our food which has been

Different child: Joey De Backer and daughter Isla are reaping the rewards of an improved diet.

linked to a wide range of problems, including headaches, tantrums and headbanging in young children.

Adults can be affected, too.�

Up to 129 “natural� substitutes for MSG are also hidden in foods and can affect consumers of all ages, she said. “The bread preservative 282 is increasingly disguised as cultured dextrose or cultured anything in breads and wraps, even though it can cause irritability, fatigue or insomnia in children and adults. “Reactions to additives build up slowly, so most parents don’t realise they or their children are affected.

“When the family avoids additives for a few weeks parents are often amazed to see that their children are calmer, happier, sleeping better and doing better at school – and they themselves often feel better, too.�

Some people can even be affected by natural food chemicals in healthy foods, like berries or tomato-based sauces, she said.

Ms Dengate’s Fed Up book series discusses reducing food chemicals for calm, happy families.

Footpath scheme cracks up Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire’s footpath construction scheme is in disarray, with 13 projects being deferred and two others awaiting appeals.

An emphatic rejection of the shire’s footpath construction plans by ratepayers has led to money being reallocated to fix footpaths at Hastings, Somerville and Bittern.

The highest support recorded in a survey of property owners due to be billed for part of nine footpath schemes was just 28 per cent.

In one case, the shire’s plan to build a footpath was rejected by 100 per cent

of property owners.

The rejection of the nine schemes has seen the team behind the shire’s footpath construction scheme recommend that $404,000 from the budget be used to fix footpaths rather than go towards the shared payment schemes.

Schemes at Somers and Sorrento already adopted by council are being held up by property owners who have lodged objections with the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT).

The footpaths that will benefit from the unexpected $404,000 “surplus” are at Babington Park, Hastings ($100,000); Stony Point Rd, Bittern ($110,000); and Frankston-Flinders Rd, Somerville ($194,000).

The footpath team, in a report to council’s 14 June meeting, said the survey to gauge support for new paths was part of the shire’s “commitment to improve the consultation with property owners”.

The footpath schemes rejected by property owners in the survey are for Booran Pde, Tootgarook (85.7% against); Braidwood Av/Brendle St, Rosebud West (89.6% against); Eliza Drive, Mt Eliza (87.1% against); Harrap Rd, Mt Martha (72% against); Hove Rd, Rosebud (88.9% against); Leon Av, Rosebud (97% against); Orana Drive/Kinross St, Mt Martha (100 against); Sudholz St, Bittern (94% against); and Wimbledon Av/Wimborne Av, Mt Eiza (87.8% against).

Property owners objecting to the Somers footpath scheme claim to not have been properly surveyed about their views by the shire.

The rejection of footpath schemes has led to the shire taking another look at the shared payment scheme it adopted in 2011.

“Based on results of the survey, it is proposed that the instigation phase footpath special charge schemes projects in their current form, be deferred and reassessed for consideration following a review of the shire’s Footpath Construction Strategy and Contribution Schemes Policy,” the report to council from infrastructure planning team leader Chris Munro and infrastructure strategy manager Davey

Smith stated.

“As part of the shire’s commitment to improve the consultation with property owners, officers recently undertook a survey of each scheme currently at the instigation phase. The survey aimed to gauge property owners’ support for a proposed scheme, prior to council considering the progression to the intention to declare phase.

“The survey was simplistic in nature, requesting property owners’ views on a proposed shared cost footpath scheme to be constructed in their street.”

The survey showed that a majority of property owners rejected the shared footpath schemes in all of the nine proposed projects.

No school nudes in sight on website Neil Walker neil@mpnews.com.au THERE were no photos of girls attending Frankston area schools on a website targeting Australian schoolgirls as part of a vile trade of nude snaps of women without their knowledge.

The overseas-hosted site where people publicly swapped images of nude women was reportedly set up in December and taken offline Friday (19 August) amid fears underage girls’ private photos sent to friends or boyfriends were subsequently exposed to the online world.

While a person posting on the site last

week specifically sought nude photos of students from two Frankston area schools The News understands none were ever uploaded to the site.

Another person asked for any nude pictures of students from a third Frankston area school, but again there was no response to the request on the comments thread online.

The site, which The News has chosen not to name, was reported to Victorian and interstate authorities by women disgusted that private photos were published without their consent.

Male visitors to the site hunted for nude photos by naming women and in

some cases listing their home suburb on the website in an attempt to solicit pictures.

Queensland Police confirmed on Wednesday (17 August) they had investigated the site.

“While we have not received any formal complaints, we are working with our interstate colleagues, the Australian Federal Police and the eSafety Commissioner and have conducted an initial investigation into the origin of the site,” Detective Superintendent Cheryl Scanlon, of the Child Safety and Sexual Crimes Group, said in a statement.

“We believe the site is hosted over-

seas and does not appear to contain any child exploitation material.”

Victoria Police said it will not comment on specific cases but did confirm a Joint Anti-Child Exploitation Team is investigating.

The Victorian Department of Education is helping police with enquiries.

“It is disgraceful to see Victorian students being targeted by this highly inappropriate website,” spokesman Alex Munro said. “The online exploitation of young people is a very serious issue that can have serious ramifications for those involved.”

Mr Munro said support would be

available for any students at schools named on the site if needed and people should report inappropriate photos published online to police.

Some photos were deleted from the site by users after its existence was reported elsewhere but there is no evidence at this stage that any of those images featured students attending Frankston area schools.  Call Crimestoppers on 1800 333 000 or the Child Protection Helpline on 132 111 with any information about the site.

Anyone suffering sexual assault or exploitation can call 1800 RESPECT and Kids Helpline 1800 55 1800 for support.

An independent voice for the community

TWO recent events encouraged people to sleep out for a night to help raise awareness about homelessness.

The sleep-in-your-car event, Saturday 6 August at Mornington Park, was organised by Fusion Mornington Peninsula.

The event was one of several similar events across Australia aiming to raise awareness and funding to address homelessness. “It is shocking to think that on any given night in Australia there are more than 100,000 people without a home or a safe place to sleep,” the mayor Cr Graham Pittock said at the sleep-out.

At the second event, on Tuesday 9 August at the Salvation Army’s premises in Rosebud West, Cr Antonella Celi spoke about all the ways in which the council was working with other organisations and the community to help reduce the incidence of homelessness across the peninsula.

Cr Celi said that night’s census was expected to tally the numbers of people who were homelessness and highlight how important it is that they receive the right help and support.

“Homelessness on the peninsula can be lowered in many ways and your action to help with just one situation will make a big difference to those suffering housing stress,” she said.

“Please consider making a donation for emergency relief, donating a swag or bed pack, or making available a vacant room or dwelling for rental.”

The shire is also advocating for state and federal governments to legislate for increased social and affordable housing infrastructure. It wants housing projects to be developed that are innovative and in keeping with neighbourhood character.

“Over the next 12 months the council will review its council plan, planning scheme, Triple A Housing policy and associated policies, to ensure that homelessness and housing stress are alleviated,” Cr Celi said.

Cold comfort: Urban Seed CEO David Wilson speaks at the sleep-in-your-car event organised by Fusion Mornington Peninsula at Mornington Park.

Hall hire hike puts squeeze performers Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au STUDENTS and community groups are facing higher rental charges following a rise in prices to use Mornington Peninsula Shire’s community halls and meeting rooms.

Regular hirers were invited to information sessions in November to update them on changes to conditions of hire, booking procedures and payment requirements. They were then asked to confirm their dates of hire for the next 18 months ( July 2017) but no mention was made of proposed rate increases during that time.

Billy Lids Theatre Company proprietor Annette Precht said existing hall hirers would have been entitled to assume that there would be no rate increases once they were locked in to their hall hire.

Her 50 students use Red Hill community hall for eight hours a week which, under the old arrangement, cost her $7 an hour as a community user or $560 for a 10-week term or $2240 a year.

Under the new rates arrangement, she will have to pay $10 an hour or $800 a 10-week term or $3200 a year – an increase of 70 per cent.

“That’s a lot when we are committed to July 2017,” she said. “It really hurts.”

She is concerned the higher fees may not result in improved facilities. “Will they be used to pay for hall improvements, such as better toilets and lighting?” she asked.

Red Hill community hall is classified as a secondary hall, with an outside toilet and poor lighting.

“It’s a hall with character,” Ms Precht said. “The water pipes are old and yucky but we are happy to put up with it.”

Mornington Peninsula mayor Cr Graham Pittock said the council stood behind the rate increases adopted on 1 July and had appointed a coordinator to ensure users adhered to them.

“Halls costs a lot of money and we are a user-pays society,” he said.

A strongly worded letter announcing the changes said hire fees must be paid in full four weeks in advance, or by any other date stipulated in the confirmation letter.

“Failure to pay the fees by the due date may result in the termination of the agreement for hire,” the letter stated.

State government-imposed rate capping of 2.5 per cent has put pressure on councils to earn revenue from other sources.

“We will find it hard to absorb the proposed rate increases. Hopefully we won’t have to seek an alternate venue or regrettably be forced to close the business completely,” Ms Precht said.

Expires 15.0

Shire chief operating officer Alison Leighton said hall fees for all venues were ratified by the council as a part of the annual budget process. “Historically the users of halls have updated their bookings in November/December for the following calendar year which has meant there has been an increase in fees when the council ratifies them in late June,” she said.

“This has been the process for many years. By letting customers know 18 months out, it brings them into line with the financial year enabling casual bookings to be taken for January to April prior to the end of December.”

Ms Precht said she had considered hiring another teacher and boosting classes, but this is now in jeopardy.

“We really don’t want to impose fee increases on our students,” she said.

“A lot of families struggle to afford the fees already, and we have students coming from as far away as Mt Eliza, Somerville, Cape Schanck and Rye, including one triple amputee.

“These families are committed to their children’s development and we really care about them.”

Ms Leighton said a recent review of fees meant that, in many cases, fees would go down.

The shire manages 33 halls and takes about 18,000 bookings each year.

“Keeping up with this demand means rates cannot cover the upkeep and maintenance costs,” Ms Leighton said.

Meet The (Bootleg) Beatles

The long and winding road: The Bootleg Beatles will play Frankston as part of an Australian tour.

Neil Walker neil@mpnews.com.au THERE can never be a reunion of The Beatles but the closest modern fans of the most influential band of the 1960s and beyond, after they split, can see the next best thing in Frankston early next month.

The Bootleg Beatles, widely regarded by fans and music critics as the best Beatles tribute band in the world, will play the Frankston Arts Centre on Sunday 4 September and ‘Paul McCartney’, also known as Steve White, is looking forward to the show.

The 47-year-old joined The Bootleg Beatles about five years ago replacing original Paul who retired after two decades on the road.

Right-handed White learned to play bass left handed, such is the band’s dedication to giving Beatles fans a gig-going experience as close to the real thing as possible. “I practiced for ages and ages and eventually made the switch. The first gig I did playing left

handed was awful, I was absolutely terrible. After I came off stage I said I’m never doing that again ‌ but someone came up to me and said ‘it’s great to see a left-handed Paul’ and they thought it was great.â€?

White says he played in another 1960s covers band before being approached to join the bootleg Fab Four alongside ‘John Lennon’ (Adam Hastings), ‘George Harrison’ (Stephen Hill) and ‘Ringo Starr’ (Gordon Elsmore) but basically “played the John Lennon part, despite looking a lot like Paul, since he is originally a rhythm guitarist. “Every show we turned up to, as soon as they saw me they said ‘oh, you’ve got to be Paul’ so eventually over time me and the bass player decided to swap over.�

Music fans who turn up see The Bootleg Beatles in Frankston can look forward to a full Beatles

show featuring songs, band costumes and stage projections from every stage of the iconic band’s career and will hear some songs the originals themselves didn’t perform since they effectively stopped being a touring band in 1966 shortly before releasing the classic Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band album filled with layers of sonic trickery produced in the studio. “Obviously, there’s a staple of hits we have to do since the majority of people are, I guess, casual fans,� White said. “I could name 100 favourite Beatles song. I do tend to favour Ticket to Ride because I feel that was the start of when the music started to become more self-indulgent and was kind of on the cusp of when things were shifting from the happy go lucky pop song to more contemporary music. It was so different to anything that came before it.

“And Twist and Shout lifts the roof and also Hey Jude is one of those that’s a massive anthem.�

White hasn’t meet Paul McCartney but he says the original incarnation of The Bootleg Beatles, who also supported UK Britpop rock ‘n’ roll stars Oasis on tour in their 1990s glory days, did catch up with McCartney and George Harrison on a few occasions. “George asked ‘Who is the Bootleg Brian Epstein? Because he’s got all the money’,� White said. “McCartney told The Bootleg Beatles who were also playing the Queen’s Jubilee concert ‘not to play Hey Jude because I’m playing it’.�

It’s a full-time gig playing gigs around the globe as the bootleg Fab Four but White feels lucky to follow in the footsteps of The Beatles since he has been a huge fan of the band since the age of 8 when he remembers “playing their albums back to back over and over again and really, really loving it�.

He said Beatles fans in the Frankston area can come together for an evening of shared Beatlemania next month. “Come along one and all, old and young, and let’s have a big party together.â€? ď Žď€ The Bootleg Beatles play the Frankston Arts Centre on Sunday 4 September, 8pm. Tickets for the 2 hour 15 minute show, including interval, are $65.50, $55.50 (FAC members and concession), $45 (under 16s), $55 each (groups of 10+). See artscentre.frankston.vic.gov.au or call FAC on 9784 1060.

Lifesavers closing in on building target Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au PORTSEA Life Saving Club members are “absolutely thrilled� with a $1 million grant from Mornington Peninsula Shire towards their proposed new clubhouse.

The money brings them closer to a planned $7.36 million rebuild of the 50-year-old club house and sub-structure works on the popular back beach.

Club president Stuart Rayner said the money to be paid over three years “moves us closer to our funding requirement� alongside a state government contribution of $1.5 million and the club’s own fundraising of $3 million.

Members will set out to raise another $1 million over the next six months. “We’ll be hitting the road and explaining our cause to the locals who know of the good work we do and have seen our gradual demise,� Mr Rayner said. “We hope to be able to start works in February, which would see us delivering lifesaving and training services from a new clubhouse in time for the 2018 season.�

Established in 1949 by a group of concerned surfers and home to 2000 members, Portsea is reportedly the third biggest lifesaving club in Victo-

ria behind Ocean Grove and Anglesea.

Although set high above the surf, Mr Rayner said king tides lapped at the base of the dunes. “We’ve seen the damage the water can do at Collaroy,� he said, referred to the destruction of buildings during

recent storms along the NSW coast.

Shire chief operating officer Alison Leighton said the club had sought $1.5 million for rebuilding works after drawing up preliminary plans and providing a quantity surveyor’s estimate of costs.

The structure is said to be in poor condition and the “most degraded� lifesaving HQ in the state – yet its volunteers have saved more than 5300 lives and “undertaken immeasurable preventative actions�, she said.

The grant, which equates to 16 per

cent of construction costs, stacks up against the 26 per cent paid for works at Dromana Bay and 30 per cent paid for Mt Martha lifesaving clubs’ redevelopment costs.

The Portsea club faces extra costs of $1 million for beach access, dune stabilisation, and foundation works in its highly exposed location. An array of six and 12-metre-deep piles will be sunk into the sand to protect the building during storms.

Nepean Ward Cr Tim Rodgers said the “vast contribution� made by the club over 65 years was a major factor in the council’s support. “There are sound reasons for the shire to support critical community facilities like the Portsea Surf Lifesaving Club. These clubs make a significant contribution to community safety, well-being and tourism. “They promote a culture of volunteerism where members give their time, improve water safety skills and fitness and provide opportunities to socialise with like-minded people. “Through its work, this club has had a great track record of empowering youth, providing them with valuable life skills and developing future leaders.� Frankston City Council provided $1.4 million to Seaford and $910,000 to Frankston lifesaving clubs’ redevelopment works in 2003-04.

Love’s journey founders on great expectations A BOOK surely written from the heart tells of a Rosebud couple’s battle to have a baby through IVF and the pressures it puts on their struggling marriage.

A true story but with fictitious names, The Baby Makers follows the tortured eight-year journey of former real estate agent and advertising salesman Michael Reid and his wife Connie as they seek to “make” a baby.

In love and foreseeing a bright future together, the couple chases a dream believing – on current medical evidence – that IVF provides their only chance of having a baby together: despite each having children from previous marriages.

Eventually the harsh reality of what’s involved, the expense compounded by their failures to conceive, and the stresses that evokes, leads to physical violence which tears their union apart.

Michael leaves Connie for new love Tania, only to be shown proof that his quest for a newborn could have been achieved naturally in the first place.

His new partner’s pregnancy leads him to question the skills and professionalism of the IVF “establishment” and makes his case a national news topic. But the cost is high.

This self-published and admittedly “confronting” story is very descriptive and in-your-face, but not without its endearing qualities and folksy charm. Readers will have to accept that it

Tough tale: James Taylor with his book.

is written by a man with an interesting story to tell, rather than a practised writer.

In real life its author, James Taylor, is about to move to Mildura to work with men who have issues with violence against women, including all aspects of family violence, as well as Aboriginal welfare.

Moving on after 18 years CATERING company Wise Choice is on the move after being based for 18 years at Mornington Racecourse.

“Unfortunately for us, Melbourne Racing Club [which runs Mornington Racecourse] has decided not to renew our contract, which means the end to a fabulous era at the track,” Tony Carter, one of the three partners of Wise Choice said.

“Best we get on with business and get on with what we do best, serving the local people,” Cheryl Carter said.

She said Wise Choice “started with the three boys who call themselves brothers”.

“Although Tony is an in-law, they have shared a special bond, operating a tight knit family business on the Mornington Peninsula and beyond for over 27 years.”

Tony Carter, who has worked for some of Melbourne’s leading caterers, teamed up with brothers David and Gary, a schoolteacher and financial banker respectively.

“We’re not going too far,” Tony Carter said.

“We have purchased premises in Mornington where will set up our new commercial kitchen.

“We were all ready for a change and moving back into what we loved most, catering in people’s homes, beautiful marquee settings, and home weddings is what we do best. We also

cater for large and small corporate events.”

Wise Choice will still continue to service customers at such places as Eagle Ridge Golf Club, and has acquired Functions by the Bay, at the Frankston football oval, where it will be able to provide catering for up to 200.

Pakenham Race Club, which has a function room for up to 600, will also be a base for Wise Choice.

More than debate is being muzzled Michelle Gregory was spot on in her assessment (“Debate muzzled”, Letters 16/8/16) that the code of conduct signed by Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors could lead to muzzling of debate if councillors wish to keep a subject away from public scrutiny.

No doubt six councillors have all purchased a “confidential” rubber stamp to use when it suits them.

It also begs the question why four of our 10 councillors would not endorse the code of conduct? More baffling is this question when two of the four absenting councillors have very strong legal backgrounds.

For a practical example of how debate has been muzzled look at the minutes of the council meeting of 11 July, where Cr Anne Shaw moved (supported by the other “group of six” councillors) to defer adoption of the minutes of the Audit Committee meeting of 13 April until a report is presented to council that incorporates the committee’s status as an advisory committee and advice on its terms of reference.

Cr Shaw also wanted to remove reference to the procurement process concerning the shire’s future waste management facilities. How can you change the minutes to delete reference to an item if the issue was actually discussed?

The committee comprises independent persons, as well as Cr Hugh Fraser and Cr Graeme Pittock: not members of the “group of six”. Its current terms of reference - revised in 2015 establish its independence.

While we can only speculate why Cr Shaw wanted to prevent disclosure of the committee meeting minutes, perhaps it could be that the committee wishes to investigate Cr Antonella Celi’s conference expense budget or perhaps the over-enthusiasm of Cr David Gibb when it comes to waste management?

The motion regarding the muzzling of the Audit Committee should be referred to the Ombudsman.

Stuart Allen, Dromana

Leave coal underground In answer to criticism of the Carmichael coal mine, Alan Reid (“Coal is realistic” Letters 2/8/16) suggests to that Andrew Raff should “set an example” by “demanding the closure of the Latrobe Valley coal fired power stations”.

Are these really alternatives, or should we be encouraging the closure of one and the cancellation of the other?

At Paris the world already agreed it needs to cut down carbon emissions. According to climate science about 80 per cent of the world’s known reserves must stay in the ground unburned if we are to avoid cooking the planet.

The last thing our children and their children need while trying to close down Latrobe Valley is massive new coal mines with a planned 60year life, such as the Carmichael mine. That the Latrobe Valley power stations are so difficult to shut down (due to the financial investment made in them) is a powerful argument for not building

the Carmichael mine in the first place.

Peter North, Vermont South

Time for the truth As taxpayers and concerned citizens of the Mornington Peninsula, we would like to know what our government knows about the living conditions of asylum seekers and refugees on Nauru.

We are entitled to be adequately informed because of the threats to the health of these children, families and adults, as well as Australia’s international reputation.

Blaming of other organisations is not an acceptable answer.

The Labor opposition should also tell us what it intends to do about the situation.

It is a bipartisan responsibility requiring urgent action.

It is time that the Prime Minister and his ministers act on the intolerable situation in our refugee detention centres.

It is time to open these centres to proper public scrutiny and review. And time to settle refugees in Australia to contribute to our economy and community life.

Ann and Peter Renkin, Shoreham

Children in danger After watching the last Q&A, on our beloved ABC, it became clear to me that our children’s future is in great danger from the conspiracy theorists of the ilk of [One Nation senator] Malcolm Roberts. Again we saw an old man playing down and even denying that there is any conceivable danger from climate change to our future.

To him and his likes, it is too inconvenient to change their ways of consumption and energy production, to enable future generations to have a reasonable chance of a halve ways decent life on this planet.

Thanks Malcolm Turnbull for making it almost inevitable for what I see as crackpots getting a stage to spread their delusional messages.

When will he call the next double dissolution of government, seeing this one went so well?

Milk’s murky process Murray Goulburn, once a non-profit co-op for dairy farmers, becomes corporatised. Dairy farmers which were the reason for its very existence are placed second to shareholders.

Profit becomes the goal as the company loses direction. Global milk prices bottom out. The company in an unprecedented move demands that dairy farmers pay back “excessive” profits for milk which has already been sold as it reduces its prices to rock bottom unsustainable levels.

New Zealand dairy company Fonterra follows suite simply “because it can”. As our farmers go out of business, cashed up Chinese corporations

Protest for refugees COMMUNITY groups including Love Makes A Way, a Christian grassroots protest movement against Australia’s “appalling” treatment of asylum seekers, gathered early on Wednesday morning for a vigil at Frankston train station to mark the release of more than 2000 leaked incident reports from Australia’s detention centre on Nauru. The 2116 reports in the files, more than half involving children, were published by Guardian Australia last week and detail assaults, sexual abuse, self-harm attempts and child abuse in squalid living conditions. Protesters posted large paper dolls at the train station as a symbol of the children held in detention at Nauru. They then made their way to federal Dunkley Liberal MP Chris Crewther’s office to peacefully ask that Australia’s offshore detention centres be immediately shut down.

Mr Crewther’s office did not respond before publication to a request asking if he agreed Nauru should be closed.

Picture: Gary Sissons buy up our farms to export milk, an absolute food staple, back to China following their own contaminated milk scandal.

Meanwhile Murray Goulburn’s former CEO walks away with $10 million.

Think what choice this will leave Australian families in future next time you buy a $1 a litre container of home brand milk from supermarkets which also don’t seem to give a damn about our dying industry. How can our politicians let this happen?

Austin Sadler, Mornington

Containing the future A huge container ship has just been launched in Denmark, commissioned by the US firm Walmart. The vessel is longer than any United States aircraft carrier at 1302 feet long and so wide it cannot fit through the Suez or Panama canals.

The ship has been designed to carry 15,000 containers from China to the US in five days bringing 91 per cent of Walmart’s products.

Unloading takes two hours. Another two ships will soon be commissioned.

The ship returned all the containers empty. Is it no wonder unemployment in US is so high?

Is this an indication of things to come, not only for the US but other countries as well.

Saving greyhounds As a greyhound lover, advocate, fosterer and adoption group volunteer, I was ecstatic when I saw that a New South Wales state ban on greyhound racing had been announced. It’s long

THE RYE HOTEL PAGE 12

Mornington News 23 August 2016

overdue that this ban went national. How many more greyhound deaths at the track each year does it have to take? With up to 17,000 healthy greyhounds dying annually at the hands of the industry, 200 dogs reported injured during official races each week and the “lucky” survivors living in appalling conditions, the biggest tragedy is that this industry hasn’t been shut down sooner.

To see how desperately sad things have become, one only has to look at Bossey, one of five greyhounds found by RSPCA inspectors in a raid on a farm in Western Sydney. They had been living and sleeping on a stinking, muddy floor in a dark shed. Bossey was severely underweight, lame and limping on three legs - the pain in the greyhound’s eyes was palpable. And the punishment? A $10,000 slap on the wrist, while also being able to keep the dog.

Clearly the worst punishment being meted out here is to poor Bossey. How society has failed these beautiful animals.

It appears that the Greyhound Breeders, Owners and Trainers Association has hastily formed an industry alliance to campaign against the ban.

Perhaps the many (but undisclosed) dollars they are spending on their grandstanding could be better invested in rehoming some of the many greyhounds needing a forever couch. Or simply paying some vet bills.

In my experience, the couch is the only place a greyhound wants to race to. Sure, their campaign may go on for a long time, but it will be nowhere near as long as I will be fighting to get every last loving, lazy greyhound a soft bed and a home.

High school student wins prestigious award FRANKSTON High School Student and School Captain Reece Pellow has won the 2016 Annual Roy Ward Prize, one of two awards presented by the Order of Australia Association, Mornington Peninsula Regional Group.

The prize is granted to a secondary student in years 11 or 12, who has shown, both in his or her school, qualities of character, leadership and community service, which exemplify Australian citizenship, over an extended period.

Nominations were sent to 29 Schools in Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula.

All submissions were of a very high standard and illustrated the depth of talent and commitment of young people in the region.

The selection panel’s unanimously decided the submission from Reece Pellow and his impressiveness during the selection interview, warranted his selection as the 2016 Roy Ward Prize winner.

His submission highlights included Reece’s leadership roles at Frankston High School from year 9 through to becoming school captain this year, and participation in the Australian Defence Force Long Tan Youth Leadership and Teamwork Award, a leader and team

member in Frankston High School’s World Challenge Trip to India, participating in village life and improvements in several locations across India.

Reece has hands on experience in living with people with disability and special needs. His commitment to service to others extends beyond the activities organised by the school with Reece intimately involved in Riding for the Disabled at Mornington Racecourse and “busking” to raise money for The Riding for the Disabled Association of Australia.

The money raised has been used to widen the organisation’s services and buy specialised equipment.

Reece has been training assistance dogs for the past 24 months and has been a speaker at Monash University to the third year nursing and paramedic students and at the Australian Centre for Grief on the topic of “what it is like growing up with a disabled sister”.

The Order of Australia Association, Mornington Peninsula Group is grateful for the support of Spowers Architects in their sponsorship of the School Awards Program.

Tax time IT’S

ATO exposes dodgy deductions WITH over eight million Australians claiming work-related expenses each year, Assistant Commissioner Graham Whyte is reminding people to make sure they get their deductions right this tax time.

“Australians claim over $21 billion in workrelated expenses each year, and we want to support taxpayers to claim what they are entitled to – no more, no less,” Mr Whyte said.

“Most Australians want to do the right thing, but we are seeing mistakes, and while the amounts at an individual level are relatively small, collectively the overall impact is significant. That’s why, it is important for people to get their deductions right.

“From time to time we see people deliberately making incorrect claims. We’ve seen claims for car expenses where log books have been made up and claims for self-education expenses where invoices were supplied for conferences that the taxpayer never attended.

“Deliberately making incorrect claims is an

easy way to get into some serious trouble. It’s just not worth it.”

Mr Whyte said while most tax agents are there to help you do the right thing, sometimes the ATO identifies tax agents offering special deals, inflating claims to generate larger refunds.

“If it sounds too good to be true – it usually is. The ATO takes action against tax agents who make dodgy claims, but to protect yourself, make sure your tax agent is registered. You can check on the Tax Practitioners Board website.”

Mr Whyte said in 2014-15, the ATO conducted around 450,000 reviews and audits of individual taxpayers, leading to revenue adjustments of over $1.1 billion in income tax.

“Cases involved omitted income or overclaimed entitlements like deductions. This included people making claims significantly different to those made by taxpayers in similar circumstances,” Mr Whyte said.

“Every tax return is scrutinised using increasingly sophisticated tools and data analytics

developed by our ‘Data Doctors’ at the ATO. This means we can identify and review income tax returns that may omit information or contain unreasonable deductions.

“When a red flag is raised, our staff investigates further and if your claims seem unusual we will check them with your employer.

“If you’ve made a mistake, this will hold up the processing of your tax return, so it’s best to make sure you claim the right deductions from the start.”

My Whyte said this year the ATO has introduced real-time checks of deductions for tax returns completed online.

“If your claims are substantially higher than others in similar occupations, earning similar amounts of income, a message will appear, asking you to check them. This new process is just about helping you to make sure your claims are correct,” Mr Whyte said.

“If you are doing the right thing you have nothing to worry about.”

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Trooper’s message found in bottle Compiled by Melissa Walsh A TOMATO bottle was picked up on the beach a few days ago by Mr E. McComb, containing the following words. From the date on the note it has evidently been drifting about for a long time: “The finder would be doing a great service to me if he tell my mother (Mrs Sarratt, Claremont Avenue, Malvern) that all is well—Trooper Jas Sarratt, Albany, 29/10/14.” *** EX-COUNCILLOR G. Keast notifies in another column his reasons for not seeking re-election at the hands of the Centre Riding ratepayers. This advertisement was inadvertently omitted in our last issue. *** MR Marcus McBrodie ably conducted the auction of two laurel wreaths at the Scotch Concert on Saturday last.

This maiden effort of Mr McBrodie’s resulted in a substantial sum being raised for the Frankston District Soldiers’ Memorial Fund. *** THE public meeting convened by the advocates of 6 o’clock closing of hotels was held in the Frankston Mechanics’ hall on Thursday evening, at which there was a good attendance.

Mrs Beckett and Mr J. G. Barratt were the speakers. A report of the meeting will appear in our next issue. *** AT the evening given by the produce stall holders, on Wednesday night, the opal brooch, given by Miss McKenzie to he raffled for the Mt Eliza

Red Cross society, was drawn, and Miss Webster, of Malvern proved to be the holder of the winning ticket. *** AFTER being three and a half months in hospital, suffering from injuries received while in charge of an ammunition plant at Broadmeadows, Private A. G. Young has again been sent to that camp and is now attached to the 21st reinforcements of the 5th battalion of Infantry. *** THE annual meeting of the Frankston Athletic sports Club will be held in the Mechanics’ Hall on Friday 8th September at 6 o’clock when a full attendance of members is requested. *** SOME time during the performance at the Frankston Hall on Saturday evening some low down specimens of humanity crept into the room at the back of the hall, where the ladies had laid out light refreshments for the performers to partake of at the conclusion of the programme, and stole all the sandwiches and decorations on the table.

This sort of thing is despicably mean and paltry, and the persons who indulge in them are in a fair way to land ultimately in gaol. *** THE following letter has been received by the hon. sec, of the Australian Club:-Dear Miss McComb, please convey to members of your club my hearty appreciation of their kind thoughtfulness in presenting to the Langwarrin Camp Hospital the

towels, pillowslips, etc.

These articles all help to make the poor fellows comfortable. It is not easy to find people showing such true Christian benevolence and such little acts make our efforts in the men’s behalf worthwhile.

Again thanking you, I am Yours truly, I. Blezard, Major. *** IN a paragraph appearing on the 5th inst in our columns referring to winners in the Victorian Poultry and Kennel Clubs Show held recently a slight error occurred in mentioning Messrs Taylor and Brand’s awards. It should have read: They not only secured 1st prize for farmers’ trio, with Plymouth Rocks in the Utility Class, but first prize for best utility hen in the open class against all breeds and second prize for White Leghorn cockerel.

The above mentioned hen being a white leghorn purchased from W. Aisbhett “Lynwood Poultry Farm” Langwarrin, who also possesses the father of the 2nd prize cockerel. *** THE I.O.R. social tens No 151 Frankston, held its quarterly meeting on Monday Aug 14th. In spite of bad weather about 30 members were present. During the quarter two Amore of our members have enlisted for active service.

There is about 2400 from Victoria serving for King and Country. There has been a steady increase of members for the quarter. Three more candidates were proposed last meeting.

A resolution was passed that we invite the Rev H. Warrall down to address a public meeting in Frankston regarding closing of Liquor Bars and the secretary was instructed to call a public meeting of the trustees reinvesting in the war loan.

Various other items were brought forward, and after business the members retired to the anti-room, where supper was arranged by the sister members.

After justice had been done to this part of the program, games were indulged in. A very enjoyable evening was spent. During the evening the C.R. on behalf of the tent, presented Brother F. Girdleston with a travelling bag on his departure from Frankston. *** THE Frankston Court of Petty Sessions was held on Monday last, before Mr Cohen, p.m., and Messrs Williams, Oates, Clemaens and Grant J.P. Two cases of alleged breaches of the Licensing Act were heard.

The first one was that of the licensee of the Bay View Hotel, who was charged, by the police, with supplying drink to other than a traveller, on the 30th July.

Mr Brayshay appeared for defendant. From the evidence adduced it appears that the accused had taken the necessary precautions before supplying the drink, and she was led to believe that the man supplied was a bona fide traveller. The bench therefore dismissed the case.

The licensee of the Half Way

House, Carrum, was then charged with illegal traffic in liquor on 23rd July last. Mr Meagher appeared for the defense.

A number of witnesses for and against, were heard and the Bench ultimately decided that the case had been proved, and a fine of 40s was imposed.

On a charge of having her bar door open on 30th July accused pleaded guilty, and was fined 7£. *** THE news of the death of Mr C Blythe came as a shock to the residents of Frankston on Monday evening, when it became known that he had expired at the residence of his son-in law, Mr P. Wheeler, from internal hemorrhage.

Though the deceased gentleman has been somewhat of an invalid for the past 8 or 9 months, he has been able to get about and seemed to be improving, and his death came most unexpectedly.

He filled the position of stationmaster at Frankston about 24 years ago, and was well known to the older residents. Prior to his illness he filled the responsible position of pier master at Williamstown, but since then he has resided with Mr Wheeler, at Frankston. The remains were conveyed by motor hearse to Williamstown on Thursday, where he was buried alongside his wife, who predeceased him about 12 months. *** From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 26 August, 1916

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

Farewell to the snow globe of my youth

By Stuart McCullough I’M sure it’s not just me. Even though I’m so far into adulthood that I’m in danger of bursting out the other side, it’s fair to say that I’m yet to move out of my parents’ house. Not completely.

Instead, my old bedroom in Tyabb remains a repository of items that I have deemed both too important to throw away and yet not nearly important enough to take with me. They sit on shelves and are stuffed in cupboards, silently waiting for the day when I finally decide their collective fate. As a result, these items have languished for decades.

Physically, I left that house in my teens. Since then, I’ve lived at various addresses in a variety of circumstances; and each one of them was home for a time. But there’s nothing quite like the house you grew up in. Whether it’s a lack of organization on my part or an attempt to keep one foot in a distinctly distant camp, I can’t say. All I know is that, after more than twenty years, the excuses are starting to wear a little thin.

There are books, lots of them. These include activity workbooks from French class that may well contain homework I ought to have submitted in about 1986. If I were to attempt to hand these in now, chances are I’d be escorted from the premises rather than congratulated. Tempting as it may be to make one final appeal to have my mark reviewed in the hope of being bumped up from a ‘B’ to an ‘A’, it’s time to let that dream go. Besides, were I to attempt to submit my homework now, the teacher might ask me a question in French, thereby revealing

PAGE 48

that I have failed to retain anything more than a few stray Serge Gainsbourg lyrics and the chorus of Plastic Bertrand’s ‘Ca Plane Pour Moi’.

There are prizes too. These I largely

Mornington News 23 August 2016

accumulated in the early part of my high school career before they dramatically petered out. Mostly they’re in the form of novels but there are a couple of trophies too, denoting im-

probable sporting prowess. Without exception these are suitably miniscule.

The sports trophies are located not in my old bedroom but my father’s study, together with the assembled product of his own athletic career which, to date, consists of a medallion (I’m not sure for what. Probably car-pooling) and a plaster figurine of a bloke with his leg raised in a pose I’d describe as ‘post torpedo punt’. By congregating the awards won by the entire family, my father hoped it would look impressive. It doesn’t. Even less so since one of my nephews started to over-achieve and collect trophies that tower like skyscrapers over our meager statuettes.

As for the books, they were items I’d chosen at Robinson’s Book Store.

In a sense, they were the worst kind of gift. I was charged with the awesome responsibility of selecting the present that the school would then give back to me. Accordingly, I felt an overwhelming responsibility to choose something that was suitably intellectual rather than anything that might trigger a recount. There was a volume of Dickens so large that it required a forklift.

Despite the fact that it was beautiful, it was impractical. In fact, so many of Charles’s works were contained in a single book it meant the print was so necessarily small that even an ant would have struggled to read it.

Then there are the souvenirs. These are last remains of various family outings purchased with significant budgetary limits and a looming time constraint. It was common for us to be informed that we had five dollars and just as many minutes in which to select

an item from the gift shop by which to remember the moment for the rest of our lives. The results were predictably uneven. In Tasmania I bought a sculpture of an old lady’s face carved into an old apple. The years saw it plunge further into a state of decrepitude until it collapsed. There was also the snow-globe that I bought at Mount Buffalo (money, incidentally, I should have spent on a hot chocolate). The intervening years have seen the water evaporate and the snow vanish. I blame climate change.

Often I received a book for Christmas. Each of these has a message from my father in handwriting that is not so much messy as it is encrypted. I’m not sure what these messages mean, but I’m not yet prepared to give them up.

Some books are about subjects I have long since abandoned including cricket, rock collecting and gunfighters of the Wild West. Beside these tomes is a rabbit’s foot. It too was a gift, intended to bring good luck, although presumably not for the rabbit.

Soon, the hour will come. The umbilical connection that has so long ensured that part of me remains in Tyabb will be severed. Some things I will keep. Others will be sent to the great hard-rubbish night in the sky, never to be seen again. So long droughtaffected snow globe. Farewell rabbit’s foot. I’ll be sure to leave something behind, though. Perhaps a book tucked discretely on a shelf or my ‘most improved’ football trophy. A sense of place is a powerful thing. There will, I think, always be part of me in Tyabb. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Eagles pull off a miracle PENINSULA LEAGUE

By Toe Punt EDITHVALE-ASPENDALE pulled off one of the most amazing results in memory on Saturday when it held on to draw against Frankston YCW and subsequently, snatch a last gasp spot in the top five.

The Eagles broke a four game losing streak to pull off the draw, a result that was a long way from anyone’s wildest imagination prior to the match.

Edithvale-Aspendale had struggled with injuries and lost its place in the top bracket at the hands of Seaford.

Having to beat top of the table YCW was remote and although Seaford was odds-on to lose to Mt Eliza, there was little chance the Eagles could wrest back their position in the five.

However, despite the ball spending 80 per cent of its time in the YCW forward half in the tense final quarter, the home side was somehow able to prevent the opposition from scoring enough to grab victory.

The game seemed to be going to script in the first half when, despite the Eagles playing some good footy, the visitors led by 15 points at the main break.

The Eagles though, through the likes of star players Mark Mullins, Jeremy Heys and Stevey Mannix, got their nose in front in the third term with three unanswered goals.

Edithvale had 22 scoring shots to YCW’s 17 and outscored the Stonecats 5.5 to 3.2 in the second half.

The final score was YCW 10.7 (67) to Edithvale 9.13 (67).

The draw came on the back of the announcement earlier in the week that Stonecats coach Scott Mathers would not seek reappointment for the top job in 2017.

The Stonecats were on the phone to at least three prospects early in the week, including premiership coaches Tony Blackford and Gavin Artico.

Despite winning though, the draw was as good as a win for Edithvale.

Seaford was only two points clear of Edithvale going into the final round after they gave up a five goal three quarter time lead against Karingal earlier in the year to hold on for a draw.

The Eagles will play neighbour Bonbeach in the cut throat elimination final on Sunday at Frankston Park af-

Dog’s day: Mornington dispatched Karingal by 59 points. Picture: Scott Memery

ter the Sharks finished in fourth place on the ladder.

Bonbeach had a scrap against Langwarrin, scraping home by the smallest of margins.

The corresponding game earlier in the season was without question one of the worst spectacles for the season – this one wasn’t much better.

The Sharks led by 21 points at quarter time after kicking with the wind, led by three points at half time and by 15 at three quarter time.

The Kangas dominated the play in the last and prevented the Sharks from scoring, however, despite opportunities to win the game, Langwarrin failed by a point, 7.8 (50) to 7.9 (51).

Jackson Casey and Daniel Smith were superb for the Sharks while Nick

Tuddenham with three goals and Zach Andrewartha were very good for the Kangas.

Mornington continued its steam train ride to the very end with a 20.13 (133) to 10.14 (74) victory over Karingal.

The Doggies opened up a break in the opening quarter before getting eight goals in front in the second.

Jackson Calder, Stuey Seager and Dale Whelan all booted four goals for the Dogs while Ryan O’Dell dominated.

Chris Hay kicked six for the Bulls while Aaron Lees and Harry Czarnecki got the top votes.

The Bulls have formed a subcommittee and have begun the interview process for a new coach,

with former coach Bevan Malloy and former Mt Eliza coach John Georgiou believed to have thrown their hat into the ring.

Pines got back onto the winner’s list with a big 19.9 (117) to 9.17 (71) win against Chelsea.

The Pythons restricted the opposition to one goal in the opening half and led by 42 points at the main change.

The game opened up a little in the second hour with the Gulls kicking eight goals to Pines’ nine.

Michae Bezzene booted four goals for the Pythons in only his third game for the season while Aaron Ludewig and Brad Kiely were impressive also.

Grant Trew gets all the tough jobs for the Gulls and he was outstanding again while Curtis Bywater also

Gormley finished with a game high four goals for the Redlegs and Dave Barton and Harper leonard dominated.

Chris Murfett and Kyle Mathews were the best of the Tigers, who missed out on a final berth by percentage.

Buds and Blues make it through NEPEAN LEAGUE

By Toe Punt ROSEBUD made it nine wins in succession against Somerville in the qualifying final on Saturday, withstanding a last quarter surge to win by seven points.

For three and a half quarters at Red Hill Recreation Reserve, Rosebud completely dominated the Eagles.

However, trailing by five goals at three quarter time, the Eagles changed things around in the last term, won the ball on the outside and outscored Rosebud 4.6 to 1.1 to almost steal the match.

The momentum swung in the game when Rosebud gave away two free kicks in the goal square, resulting in two goals before the ball was taken back into the centre square.

Those two goals to coach David Hirst reduced the margin to nine points, then Tim McGennis booted a long bomb to reduce the margin to just three points with seven minutes left to play.

Somerville continued to dominate general play but could only manage a further two behinds, reducing the margin to just a point.

Then, for the first time for the quarter, Rosebud won the ball at half back, kicked the ball into space, Nick Boswell gathered and bounced his way to half forward before the ball ended up with the best player on the ground, Ben Dwyer, who kicked the sealer with just a minute on the clock.

The stranglehold that Rosebud has on Somerville dates back to 2013.

In that year, the Buds and Eagles met in round four (Rosebud by 19 points) and round 13 (Rosebud by 10 points) In 2014, they met in round eight, Rosebud winning by 65 points.

Both clubs missed the finals in 2013 and 2014.

In 2015, they met four times - in round six (Rosebud by 11 points), round 13 (Rosebud by 5 points), in the second semi (Rosebud by 16 points and the Grand Final, which Rosebud won by 20 points after trailing by eight points at three quarter time.

In 2016, we had to wait until Round 10 before we got the replay of the 2015 Grand Final.

Rosebud jumped out of the blocks on that day and kicked the first seven goals of the game, ending the contest at Olympic Park there and then.

After the first change, Rosebud just outscored Somerville 7.9 to 7.8.

Rosebud was all over Somerville in the first three quarters.

They were more committed to the contest, calmer under pressure, cleaner with their disposal and worked together as a team a whole lot better.

The 28 point half time lead and 30 point three quarter time lead was justification for the hard work.

Rhys Bancroft, Ryan Spooner, Dale Stephens and Brenton Payne worked tirelessly through the middle, along with Dywer, who again had the bet-

ter of Justin Farrelly, Chris Zurek, Seb Krumeich, Matt Baker, Brenton Davidge, Chris Dew and Nick Boswell all led the backline and the likes of Keegan Downie and Daniel Wilson looked dangerous in attack.

The Buds were all over the Eagles and to make matters worse, none of the ‘stars’ for Somerville were having any impact.

Desperate changes needed to be made by Somerville and they were simply made too later.

Trailing Rosebud by 28 points at half time, the Eagles needed to produce Plan B. They waited until three quarter time to get dangerous and adventurous.

Scott Simpson was outstanding for the duration for the Eagles across half back but he should have been swung into the ruck or up forward much sooner than he was.

Luke Collie did a great job on Keegan Downie, restricting him to just one goal, while Adrian Speedy was the best run and carry player for the Eagles.

The facts are that the Somerville brand is not good enough to beat Rosebud. If they get the chance again, the Eagles need to change it up and be unpredictable.

They may not get that chance!

On Sunday in the elimination final, Hastings led from early in the second quarter to the finish to knock Red Hill out of the 2016 premiership race.

However, the 10.12 (72) to 7.9 (51) victory came at a price for the Blues with ruckman Josh Mulheron being aided from the field with what appeared to be an ankle or knee injury, while key forward Colin McVeigh was reported in the last quarter for striking and was offered a mandatory two week ban.

The Blues were disciplined and well-coached, preventing the HIllmen from playing on, protecting the corridor, pressing up at the half backs and getting numbers back behind the footy.

Red Hill dominated the inside 50 metre tally in the opening quarter but continued to kick it to the opposition.

Brendan Dunne, Terry Green, Paul Rogasch and Matt Clifford did well down back, Nathan Gray, Mark Deveraux, Pete Mawson and Luke Smith were influential through the middle and Shaun Foster, Luke Clark, McVeigh and Luke Hewitt were dangerous in attack.

The Hillmen played into the Blues’ hands and it cost them victory.

The margin was four goals at half time when McVeigh nailed an after-the-siren goal and the margin blew out to five goals at three quarter time.

The Hillmen outscored the Blues in the final quarter but never threatened. Sean Marchetti, Jake Mold, Blake McCormack and Ben Poole were the best of the Hillmen.

Hastings will now play Somerville in the first semi final on Sunday at Devon Meadows while Frankston will play Rosebud at Rye on Saturday.
