Passion for Rebellion A passion for the drama of the Eureka Rebellion has been crafted into a novel by Hastings author Fran Henke, which she reckons would make great holiday reading.

The retired journalist’s latest book Winds of Rebellion, is available at Petersen’s Bookstore (103 High St) Hastings; Farrell’s bookshop, Mornington; and Michael Leeworthy Gallery, Red Hill.

“The story is told from the point of view of people in Geelong, who were on the side of the gold miners – as long as there was no trouble,” Fran Henke said. “But there was of course trouble, driven by the Victorian Governor Hotham demanding outrageous licence fees to overcome the State’s debt.

“The book is about ordinary people caught up in the extraordinary circumstances of 1854,” Fran explains.

Peterson’s has signed copies of the first novel in the trilogy The Other Side of the Wind. Both books are illustrated by Fran’s relief prints.

“After the first, readers badgered me to know what happens next, so the sequel was born. Again they’re asking what happens next and I’m loving the characters in the story and the research so much that well, there has to be a third”, Fran said.

“Maybe next year”.

GIFT GUIDE 2016 Volunteers to the rescue with sound boating tips MORNINGTON’S award-winning Volunteer Marine Rescue service, now entering its 36th summer of operation, offers five recreational boating safety tips: 1. Before you go out, check the weather forecast. A calm day can quickly turn ugly on the water. Keep an eye out for changing weather conditions by monitoring the forecast. Check out www.bom.gov.au 2. Always wear a lifejacket and insist your crew and guests do the same. While it is only a requirement to wear one in certain situations, the low cost of automatically inflating PFDs is cheap insurance.

Remember, it’s only a lifejacket if you’re wearing it – and make sure it’s in good condition.

3. Check all safety equipment before heading out. Make sure everyone on the vessel knows where it is stored and how to operate it.

4. Always makes sure you have enough fuel – one-third for the trip out, one-third for the trip home and a third in reserve.

5. Stay with your vessel. In the event you end up in the water, ensure you and all occupants stay with the boat. It is far easier for rescue authorities to find you.

About VMR MORNINGTON Community Bay Rescue Service, now VMR Mornington and Hastings, was formed in May 1980 when a boating accident occurred within sight of land, and police stood helpless on the cliff top watching one of the occupants trying to reach shore.

By the time a boat could be located, launched and reached the overturned vessel, the swimmer had drowned.

The incident sat heavily on the shoulders of Mornington police who decided not to let it happen again.

The name of the man who lost his life that day, Paul Darbyshire, was honoured when the service named its first rescue craft The Darbyshire.

VMR operates three purpose-built search and rescue vessels, two at Mornington and one at Hastings.

Members assist boaties and other marine users under the direction of water police.

VMR’s mission is “Serving our local community in the protection of life at sea”.

VMR president Col Strawbridge said the service was staffed solely by volunteers, mostly boaties and anglers living on the peninsula.

“Our volunteers all love being on the water and, more importantly, helping others. They respond 24-7 and we can be on the water and underway in about 10-15 minutes,” he said.

VMR is a free service, but each year needs to raise more than $67,000 for maintenance, fuel, a berth at Western Port Marina and other costs.

“VMR has been fortunate to receive grants from the state government for Yamaha engines for its three vessels,” Mr Strawbridge said.

“Our Hastings vessel is fitted with the most advanced FLIR camera, usually found only on police and military vessels.

“FLIR, or forward looking infrared, is invaluable on night searches when people are in the water. It detects thermal heat and is a night vision camera that can ‘see’ 1.2 kilometres.”

For more information about VMR, look up www.vmrmornington.com.au

Keeping boaties safe: Volunteer Marine Rescue volunteers power across Port Phillip near Mornington harbour on one of their boats. The service was founded in 1980.

The beach mat that changes everything TWO Saturdays ago Jim Kolokithas turned his wheelchair along a strip of plastic matting down to the water’s edge at Mt Martha beach.

“It was amazing; a good feeling,” he said. “I got a bit emotional just sitting there.”

The emotion was not just for himself, but for the other disabled people who will now be able to enjoy the simple pleasure of crossing a beach to the water.

With the new matting being regularly rolled out in front of Mt Martha Lifesaving Club the soft sand will no longer be an insurmountable obstacle for narrow-tyred wheelchairs.

Shire loses way with path charge Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au SOMERS residents are celebrating their win against Mornington Peninsula Shire’s plan to make property owners pay for more than five kilometres of concrete paths through their town.

new concrete paths on the peninsula.

There were tears of joy and relief from opponents of the plan when VCAT declared late Thursday that the shire’s special charge scheme was “invalid”.

Michelle Gregory saw the decision as a “resounding victory for democracy at the local level and proof that the little people have a voice if they put their minds and efforts into it”.

“Somers people have realised that

they have to fight for the protection and preservation of our precious coastal village,” she said.

Infrastructure strategy manager Davey Smith said the shire “acknowledges the ruling handed down by the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal.

Council will review the ruling before considering any further action on the matter”.

Cr David Gill said it was “pleasing to see local democracy is alive and kick-

ing in Somers, where a community went up against town hall and made a difference”.

Cr Gill, elected to Red Hill ward in October, said that despite the win against the shire, he had “concerns about other aspects of our local democracy, especially about the role of councillors in being allowed to represent their community”.

earlier this year after the shire notified 1245 property owners who received a “special benefit” from the path they must pay between $428 and $1712 to fund half the cost.

Lawyer, Somers resident and advocate for two of the three groups opposing the scheme, Chris Atmore, said she believed the win was a “first” in Victoria for residents fighting councilimposed special charge schemes.

CEO casts doubt on council cost comparisons Neil Walker neil@mpnews.com.au MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire CEO Carl Cowie is questioning the veracity of figures which show shire councillor expenses far exceed those at neighbouring councils.

A ratepayer at last Monday evening’s public council meeting asked Mr Cowie to explain why shire councillors’ expenses in the previous 2012-16 council term “are so high in comparison” to Kingston and Frankston (“Shire’s councillors are costly”, The News 14/11/16).

Eleven shire councillors claimed $616,712 in ratepayer-funded expenses over four years compared to $205,329 for Frankston’s nine councillors and $101,807 for Kingston’s nine councillors over the same period.

Mr Cowie said he doubted the expenses were a “like with like” comparison and “after a discussion with Matt Green, chief financial officer, it seems that these numbers do not have the same things included for comparison”.

“We will find out more information about what is included in the Frankston and Kingston numbers, but our councillor expenses are well explained in each annual report,” Mr Cowie said.

“So, unfortunately, this is probably not reported accurately in the media but we will get you a correct answer to this.”

Shire councillor spending on training, conferences and seminars far outstripped Frankston and Kingston

councillor expenses over four years, according to figures officially released by all three councils.

Shire councillors spent $121,154 on such expenses over four years; Frankston councillors spent $52,293; and Kingston councillors spent just $5135 on two training courses.

No-one at council had disputed any media reports about councillor expenses before Mr Cowie’s public comments last Monday (28 November).

The shire refused to disclose councillor expenses spending for the full 2012-16 council term until after October’s council elections (“Four-month delay on costs”, The News 21/11/16).

Both Frankston and Kingston councils listed councillor expenses in annual reports for the entire 201216 council term.

The shire listed expenses for just two of the four years in its annual reports after the state government forced all councils to publish councillor expenses from the 2014-15 financial year onwards.

The shire councillor expenses figures had been requested by The News for four months before council released the expenses information after the elections.

Shire chief financial officer Matt Green, who began work at council seven months ago, has refused to name courses, conferences and seminars attended by councillors over the past four years.

However, it seems the shire has enough staff and resources to analyse Frankston and Kingston councillor expenses.

Councillors will await a report in February before adopting a new councillor expenses policy.

Club adds boat to Sailability fleet A “VERY fast” Red Access 303 dinghy named Guiseppe was launched last week as the latest addition to Mornington Yacht Club’s Sailability fleet.

The boat’s colour and name was inspired by Guiseppe Cristaudo, an active participant of Sailability for more than 10 years. He can be seen sailing boat number 2769 with other long-

term participant and volunteer Krista Bailey.

Mornington Yacht Club has run its Sailability program for 16 years, with Graeme Lyell and Noel Heyes manning the helm for the past five years backed by up to 40 volunteers.

The program offers sailing in its 11 boats on Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays to groups and individuals with special needs.

Call for action ‘not talk’ over road fears

Servo attendant bashed, robbed

Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au FEARS have been raised that another person will be killed before improvements are made to the two increasingly congested intersections linking Mt Martha to Nepean Highway.

A pedestrian was killed at the intersection of Forest Drive and Nepean Highway in 2014, resulting in a 700-signature petition to VicRoads urging the authority to upgrade traffic conditions at the access points of Forest Drive and nearby Uralla Rd. But despite the Mornington Peninsula’s soaring population and increased traffic accessing Mt Martha from the highway, no works have started.

Resident Mike Goethel said he had a “substantial folio” of correspondence with VicRoads going back four years.

“We are sick of talking because nothing is being done and someone else could be killed,” he said.

Mr Goethel attended a meeting between residents, VicRoads and the shire last year, during which VicRoads undertook to begin “suitable safety measures”. But he said the only action so far was to reduce the speed limits from 100kph to 80kph.

He said the effect of the speed reduction was negligible”, with accidents still occurring regularly.

A further consultation meeting in November was “disappointing”, with conceptual road arrangements presented but no timing or funding guaranteed.

However, VicRoads regional director Aiden McGann said consultation was essential.

He said almost 300 residents who

A DROMANA service station attendant was bashed by thieves who then helped themselves to a “significant quantity” of cigarettes, early Friday 2 December.

The 35-year-old man was outside the closed 7-Eleven fuel outlet on Point Nepean Rd, Dromana, 2am, when two men and ambushed him.

The man was knocked to the ground, receiving facial and dental injuries, and bound with cable ties.

One offender stood guard over him while the other used the man’s keys to enter the store and steal the cigarettes.

Detective Senior Sergeant Miro Majstorovic, of Mornington Peninsula CIU, said the offenders were seen on CCTV wearing dark clothing and balaclavas.

The attendant received help from a passing motorist and called police.

The value of the haul was still being assessed Friday afternoon.

Budget ideas Mike Goethel and his wife Margaret fearf that another person will die before two Mt Martha intersections are improved. Picture: Gary Sissons

attended two community workshops at the Dromana Community Hall last month heard about a range of safety measures being considered.

He said the aim of the community sessions was to begin a discussion about how people access and exit Mt Martha and the challenges they faced.

“It is important for us to gather information with the benefit of local knowledge, which is going to help us form

solutions to make it safer and improve traffic flow.” Mr McGann said the next step was to gather the information and “look at the sentiments” towards the approaches offered.

“Alongside our engineering principles, the input from the community will help us look at what is feasible and what isn't in terms of improvements.”

He said VicRoads would present the recommended solutions “in the first

half of next year” before submitting a business case for the government to consider.

Options for the intersections include:  Roundabout  Traffic lights  Staged right turn crossings  Minor intersection improvements  Right hand turn restrictions  New access points into Mt Martha, for example, Bay Rd.

IDEAS from the public to be added to Mornington Peninsula Shire’s 2017/18 budget close 5pm, Thursday 8 December.

Mornington Peninsula Shire mayor Cr Bev Colomb said the budget was developed to ensure its programs, projects and initiatives reflected community needs.

“The community submissions phase is one step in the budget preparation process, and the community is encouraged to contribute ideas towards the final budget that will ultimately deliver council’s range of community services.”

Stay clear of seals in summer BEACHGOERS are reminded to keep their distance from seals resting on beaches in Western Port and Port Phillip bays beaches.

Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning manager program manager Suraya VI said some seals may appear sick or emaciated, but should not be approached under any circumstances.

“While we understand that seeing a seal in poor condition may be upsetting, approaching the seal or trying to move it will cause an already stressed animal further distress,” she said.

“If people sighted seals or seal pups lying on the beach, leave them in peace and enjoy their presence from afar.

“We are really lucky to see marine mammals such as seals and dolphins so close up in their natural environment, but they are wild animals, and it’s up to us to give them the space they need.”

It is illegal to approach within 30 metres of a seal on land, and dogs are not permitted within 50 metres of a seal on land. At boat ramps or other man-made structures such as piers, people must stay at least five metres away from seals.

Anyone who finds an unwell seal should call the AGL marine response unit on 1300 245 678 or DELWP on 136 186.

New rules for bays CHANGES to boating and swimming zones in Port Phillip and Western Port bays are part of an ongoing review to improve public safety on the water.

Parks Victoria is inviting public comment on the proposed changes.

“It’s important that boating and swimming

zones are a good reflection of the current and future needs of water-based activities in the area, and that they maximise safety on the water,” acting senior manager for local ports and waterways Cathy Jenkins said.

“The focus of [the] review is to refine the zones in order to provide a safer environment through better separation of boating and swimming activities in high density bathing areas, and to ensure sport and recreational activities operate legally and safely.

“Parks Victoria is committed to ensuring our bays can handle the increasing numbers of visitors and a diverse range of recreational water activities.”

In 2009 Parks Victoria with Maritime Safety Victoria completed a comprehensive two-year review of all boating and swimming zones across both bays. It involved consultation with beach and boat users and operators, local government, business and life-saving clubs.

Swimming and boating zones are clearly marked with aids to navigation (piles or buoys) installed in the water and advisory signs on the shore.

An overview of proposed adjustments, implementation history, rules and supporting maps is available at: parks.vic.gov.au/boatzonereview Parks Victoria is seeking feedback from those interested. They should complete the survey via the Parks Victoria website, email boatingzonereview@parks.vic.gov.au or write to Boating Zone Review, Parks Victoria, 10/535 Bourke St, Melbourne, 3000.

The deadline for feedback is Friday 16 December.

Shire loses path fight Continued from Page 1 “This will be talked about for a long time, it’s a great example of a small community showing that what they want is important,” she said.

“We, the community, have shown that we love Somers just the way it is, and we don’t want concrete paths that don’t belong here.”

At the October hearing, Dr Atmore told the tribunal the footpaths as planned by the shire “will destroy vegetation, compromise habitat for wildlife including koalas, and will detract from the character and amenity of Somers”.

However, the tribunal’s decision was based on the shire’s failure to provide adequate details of the proposal in a public notice.

The issue had effectively divided the Somers township, with some residents wanting the council to build 5.5 kilometres of concrete paths to improve access around the town; others insisted that the concrete paths were not in keeping with the coastal environment.

The fight grew increasingly bitter throughout the year, with opponents accusing the shire of a lack of transparency, claims that residents were not surveyed properly and suspicion that the council had shown favouritism to a residents’ group which supported the scheme, and at one stage even referenced the group’s survey in its justification for the scheme.

20% OFF

The high legal cost of taking the protest to VCAT was a major stumbling block for opponents, who were almost forced to abandon their fight when the estimated fees for the four-day hearing more than doubled and an application for a fee waiver was denied.

Dr Atmore said she was “extremely grateful” for the donations from people around Victoria that enabled all three groups to raise the $3135.60 each to proceed.

Another resident, Pam Bannister, said the win felt like The Castle, in reference to a movie about ordinary people winning against bureaucracy.

“The community is absolutely rapt,” she said.

Resident and retired estate agent Andrew Satchwell said the decision was not only a win for Somers residents, but the wider community of other coastal villages.

“It has been a prolonged battle with many hurdles to jump,” he said.

“It’s great to see that little people can stand up for themselves and not be afraid to take the fight up if they believe in the cause.”

Dr Atmore said the tribunal’s ruling had important implications for other infrastructure proposals being considered by the shire, forcing more effective community consultation and a change in the way it operated its special charge schemes.

The point is a place of solitude for artists to take time out ARTISTS, writers and musicians are invited to apply to stay at a Mornington Peninsula Shire-owned cottage on land abutting Point Nepean National Park.

The residency program based at the former gatekeeper’s cottage at Police Point Shire Park provides an opportunity for artists to work in a different environment and explore new ideas.

Balnarring-based photographer Daryl Gordon, who finished his residency at Police Point earlier this month, describes his time there as “a great indulgence as a creative artist”.

“It's not often that you can take time out of a busy schedule and just be. By saying that, I mean having the chance to just think about your art, which in my case is fine art photography,” Gordon said.

“I entered the residency with no pre-conceived ideas and just let the creative essence come forward. It was a great time to be able to catch my breath, breathe and create.

“I loved to unwind in a comfy chair at night after a shoot and watch the lights blinking on the bay and the ships cruising past, which is much better than any TV.” Gordon said he spent time “exploring and photographing the many different aspects of Point Nepean and the Quarantine Station”.

“Photographing the Quarantine Station during the evening was quite an eerie experience - I definitely felt like I was the only living soul there.”

artists stay was built for the boatmen working for the nearby quarantine station and in 1901 became accommodation for the station’s gatekeeper.

The station was opened in 1852 to prevent the spread of diseases from immigrants arriving by sea.

An extension provides studio space and the cottage has been renovated to meet heritage requirements. It has two bedrooms, a reading room, studio, kitchen and dining room, bathroom, vegetable boxes and back verandah with views of Port Phillip Bay.

Packs for refugees MEMBERS of the Flinders branch of

Grandmothers’ Against the Detention of Children are filling backpacks with useful items for children being held in detention on Manus Island and Nauru who may be sent to the United States.

The federal government has arranged a refugee swap which may see many of the detained asylum seekers accepted by the US, rather than being settled in Australia.

The Grandmothers’ Against the Detention of Children group is collecting warm socks, beanies, scarfs, drink bottles, books and back packs for those children whose families may meet the resettlement criteria of the US. On Saturday 10 December the peninsula group will join a march from St Paul’s Cathedral, corner Flinders

MORNINGTON’S Main St ambulance station will get a $1.4 million upgrade and a new “super response centre” will be built under a $500 million plan to improve the Mornington Peninsula’s ambulance response times.

The upgrade is part of a five-year plan which will see Mornington’s station get a new ambulance and be manned round the clock by 14 fulltime paramedics.

Ambulance response times on the peninsula have been some of the worst in the metropolitan region, with ambulances meeting the government benchmark of 15 minutes in just 71.7 per cent of cases in 2014, according to the Victorian auditor general’s report.

Ambulance Employees Australia Victoria union secretary Steve McGhie said those times had improved in the past two years, with peninsula ambulances now meeting response times 76 per cent of the time.

Mr McGhie said the new station was a welcome addition to the “muchneeded” resources in the south east, and should go a long way toward further reducing response times.

He said the re-coding of calls in recent month to reduce the number of ambulances being sent to non-urgent cases was also improving ambulance service on the peninsula.

“There has been a lot of work done this year to make the system work better,” he said.

Ambulance Victoria Metro East

regional director Cath Anderson said the average Code 1 response time on the peninsula was 12.36 minutes in the September quarter, an improvement on the 13.26 minutes this time last year.

Frankston MP Paul Edbrooke said the south-eastern “super centre” and the peninsula’s new ambulance station was about putting patients first and giving paramedics the support they need to save lives.

Focus on suicide FREE community workshops on suicide prevention will be held this week at the Fruit Growers Reserve Pavilion, 328 Jones Rd, Somerville, to provide information and support to those affected. They are 4-8pm, Thursday 8 December, and 10am-2pm, Friday 9 December.

The workshops are being run by Mornington Peninsula Shire in partnership with Frankston Headspace. A workshop on grief and loss was held last week.

Participants will learn to identify the signs of suicide, asking about suicide intent, understanding risk and protective factors and resources to support a person at risk.

Local support groups that have helped shape and promote these events are For Kids By Kids and It’s Okay Not To Be Ok. To book visit mornpen.vic.gov.au/ suicidesupport.

But it’s the benefits of the matting for the less able that made the matting so special.

“I’m in Melbourne now [he says by phone on Friday] and there’s not really any place I can’t venture off to by myself because of improvements with ramps and getting rid of steps. Water – the beach - is the next place to make accessible for all.”

Mr Kolokithas is one of about eight disabled kitesurfers in the world.

He is at the forefront of designing the modifications necessary – a seat and quick release mechanism - to make the sport disabled-friendly and hopes more people will take it up “now that sailing is no longer in the Paralympics”.

“Kitesurfing is the only sport I can see these guys transitioning to,” he said.

Mr Kolokithas said he took up kitesurfing after his accident “because it was the only sport I’d really wanted to do but never had time for [because of business]”.

Apart from refining changes to the actual board in conjunction with colleagues in Europe, Mr Kolokithas is now working on a trolley to transport

the rig into the water. “Launching and retrieving is the most difficult part of kitesurfing.”

Before coming off his bike he went scuba diving and was a water skier and snow skier and had ridden motorbikes since he was seven.

The accident that nearly killed him happened when he fell off a dirt bike in sand dunes near Robe, in South Australia.

“It [the ride] just went pear shaped, there was other vehicle involved,” he said.

“I couldn’t breath and was fighting for my life; paralysis was the last thing on my mind. I had a collapsed right lung and five broken ribs.”

While being transported to hospital the main thing he wanted was to get home to his three sons and wife, who was pregnant with their fourth child (another boy).

Mr Kolokithas says his paralysis “is T10 on the ASIA scale, the worst you can be at that level”.

The accident also led to the loss of his fruit and vegetable home delivery business which employed 18 people.

“But I think now that I am somehow fortunate, although everyone has their own perspective. I have a lot of family time and life couldn’t be better.”

He also sees “this time in history” as “a bit of a blessing because before now disabled couldn’t access anything”.

“Quite a few councils are being proactive and providing access to water, the last frontier.”

to the water’s edge AFTER five years of negotiations and planning, beach matting has finally arrived to provide safe access for wheelchairs at Mt Martha beach.

Unrolled to public for the first time two Saturdays ago (27 November), the matting was quickly given trial runs, and the thumbs up.

Several wheelchairs and one man using two crutches took to the matting after a ribbon cutting ceremony involving Mornington Peninsula Shire mayor, Cr Bev Colomb, the shire’s MetroAccess officer Virginia Richardson, Mt Martha Life Saving Club president David Mowat and Karen Frankhauser.

The first roll of matting was given a kick by Mark Hopper before it was pinned to the sand by lifesavers.

Making the water’s edge accessible to wheelchairs has been a long-held aim of the Disabled Surfers’ Association Mornington Peninsula branch, which wants a similar system operating at other peninsula beaches.

The DSAMP has six wide-wheeled wheelchairs which it hopes to make available to the public when not needed for scheduled surfing events at Point Leo. The 50 metres of plastic matting now being kept and regularly rolled out by Mt Martha lifesavers was bought by the shire.

Ms Richardson said the success of the matting and its popularity would be evaluated in May and, if appropriate, made available at other peninsula lifesaving clubs.

Cr Colomb said the “pilot project … will now be rolled out every weekend until 30 April”.

Bequest a boon for BERG work BERG Mt Martha president Graham Hubbard is applauding the funding successes achieved by the conservation group’s philanthropy members Bronwyn Street and Bev Fryer.

Their aim is to generate money from new sources for the Balcombe Estuary Reserves Group, which was formed in 1997 to preserve and restore bushland around the Balcombe Estuary at Mt Martha.

“The committee thought it might be possible to raise $50,000 a year through the group, which would make a great difference to our ability to restore the reserves,” Mr Hubbard told the annual meeting.

In May it received $15,000 from the Sally Oatley Memorial Fund, a sub-fund of Australian Communities Foundation, which allowed members to start work on the north bank of the Reserves/Maude St project.

A further $3000 was given by members before June after an unsuccessful application for money from the Ross Trust.

Mr Hubbard said an anonymous donor had offered up to $50,000 in matching funds for on-ground work if Berg could raise a similar amount.

Bronwyn and David Street donated $10,000 which, through matching, brought in $20,000. Alice Opper donated $2000 which was also matched.

Last week the group had two more surprises: its application to the Helen Macpherson Smith Trust for $30,000

PAGE 12

was accepted, and then it received a separate anonymous donation of $3000 – with the original anonymous donor agreeing to match both of these amounts.

“This makes a total of $108,000 which this philanthropy initiative has raised this year,” Mr Hubbard said.

“This is truly a fantastic outcome and will be sufficient to complete the north bank of the Reserves/Maude St project over the three-year period of our plan. Congratulations (and thanks) to Bronwyn and Bev for their work in generating such enthusiastic support for our work.

“As always, we will watch our spending closely on this project and we have to report to our grantors on our outcomes. This indicates that, by looking more widely, we can access other sources of funds which help to speed up the restoration of the reserves.”

Mr Hubbard said $5000 of the original anonymous donor’s matching funds were still available to be matched. Potential donors can call Ms Street on 0447 160 288, or see contact details on BERG Mt Martha’s website.

The success of the project means Berg will be on the lookout next year for other trusts and funds to attract funding from new sources.

“What a great way for our year to end,” Mr Hubbard said.

Cricket charity helps kids wield willow worldwide Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au A BLAIRGOWRIE cricket player has given a lot back to the game he loves. But now Luke Serong is preparing to bid farewell to his charity Cricket4Kids, which has donated tonnes of second-hand cricket equipment to needy children all over the world.

After living in London as a flight manager with Qantas, Mr Serong, 38, flew home via Sri Lanka almost a decade ago with wife Bree. Visiting a school which had been devastated by a tsunami, they noticed hordes of children playing cricket in hand-me-down gear of poor quality.

“We cooked up the idea for the charity there,” he said, and set about getting things moving.

A call to his playing mates at Old Wimbledonians resulted in the arrival of 50-60kg of second-hand gear – much to the delight of the locals.

Now, almost a decade on, the charity has donated 9.5 tonnes of old gear to children in 18 countries, including the Cook Islands, East Timor, India, Indonesia, Fiji, Kenya, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Rwanda, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Tonga and Vanuatu.

Gear also goes to Indigenous children in regional and Outback areas.

“We received no funding for the first six and a half years, but then the International Cricket Council got behind us and offered $5000 for five years and that got us going,” he said.

Unfortunately, it was harder to win support from Cricket Australia, but hopefully, more support is in the offing.

Recipients of the gear in far-flung countries are encouraged to “take ownership” of the donations.

Cricket4Kids arranges to collect it but the actual shipping out is handled by agents of the countries involved.

“We spend our time collecting the gear and they arrange to ship it,” Mr Serong said.

A teacher and unabashed cricket lover, Mr Serong grew up in Dromana and played cricket for Rosebud, and then Brunswick.

A highlight of his “career” was attending the T20 World Cup in Bangladesh in 2012 and donating 900kg of cricket gear to teams from Nepal and Bangladesh. There he met an Indian man who has since begun a version of the charity in the SubContinent, ensuring the concept lives on.

Showing the valuable impact the donated gear can have on a community is a good way of attracting support, he said. “In one case, a woman donated the cricket gear of a brother who had died at work and, in another, the family of a boy who died in the Black Saturday bushfires donated his gear.

“We showed photos to those families of the joy it brought to the children in Vanuatu who got to use their equipment and that brought home to them the true value of their donations.”

A documentary Mr Serong made in The Solomons showed how the donated gear, when used by former civil-war enemies, came to represent common ground. Two of the old antagonists got together for a game of cricket, which gradually became part of the healing process.

Other donated gear is being used in Imparja Cup matches between Indigenous communities around Alice Springs.

Mr Serong is hoping a national cricket drive, with support from Cricket Australia, will generate added interest in the charity. He is already receiving publicity and ground space in the outfield at the MCG Boxing Day tests and on Channel 9’s Cricket Show.

A highlight was receiving quality gear of all sorts from former Test player David Hussey. Its auction raised “a couple of thousand” dollars.

With stumps on the charity to be drawn in autumn next year, Mr Serong can look back of a match well played.

Fewer cats will be killed if owners obey the law Protesters gathering to draw attention to the high kill rates of impounded cats bring to mind what I regard to be a far more urgent and critical problem (“Protesters call to end cat kill� The News 29/11/16).

A high proportion of cat owners are blatantly ignoring Mornington Peninsula Shire’s cat curfew. Cats may be seen roaming the streets at any time of day and night. Given the number of cats on the streets, it is apparent that the shire has no real interest in enforcing the curfew.

It is also apparent that many cat owners, if not a majority, have little or no concern for the damage their pets are causing to wildlife.

Repeated requests by me for neighbours to confine their cats in accordance with shire regulations have been ignored and, on several occasions, I have had to endure the sight of adult birds in my bird-attracting garden desperately swooping cats with baby birds in their jaws.

It is common knowledge that cats are natural born killers and cause massive damage to populations of native animals.

The fact that many cats are not reclaimed by their owners when impounded further highlights not only the neglect of some cat owners, but that the unchecked population of cats is also a major issue. I for one would prefer to see the humane euthanasia of these impounded felines than for them to be released to owners who allow them to roam at will.

If owners were to face the choice of either confining their cats properly in accordance with the law, or losing them to euthanasia if impounded, several problems would be simultaneously be resolved as the number of cats at large was massively reduced, the number impounded minimised, and local wildlife given some reprieve.

John Adamson, Rye

Unnecessary council Why did we need to elect a new council? It does not seem to matter what individual councillors may want to communicate to officers of our shire on behalf of constituents. The final arbiter of any request will be an unaccountable shadowy figure in the bowls of our council chambers, the governance manager (“New policy a surprise for councillors� The News 29/11/16).

Unaccountable that is to the ratepayers of this shire’s constituents. I fear for our right as citizens to have any influence over our rulers in the “castle�, just to use a quite appropriate Kafkaesque term.

An example of this is the approval of a development plan for a parcel of land in Balnarring, next to the present doctor’s surgery which has been vehemently opposed by locals for its footprint and intrusion on neighbours. I would have thought it should have been decided with the assistance of our new council, but it seems to have been done just when the new councillors had not been sworn in yet. It obviously “needed� to be decided while the wheels of a fully working council where not in place.

A sign being carried by one of the protesters on Sunday 30 November outside Mornington Peninsula Shire’s “community animal shelter� in Watt Rd, Mornington.

The protesters said they were demonstrating against the number of cats which were put down after being held at the shelter. The shire says 26 cats were put down between June and August this year but was unable to say how many cats were impounded.

Rupert Steiner, Balnarring Beach

Costly councillors I must confess to considerable anger when I hear of councillors spending too much in their limited roles as councillors, unless they are actively helping the community for more than a pathetic five hours a week as happens in far too many councils across the state.

And I should know because I was a councillor in another area and I put in an average 30 hours a week for the same “pay� as those who put in less than one fifth of the same.

And I have seen at first-hand how some councillors can waste money.

So to cut to the chase, how about council change its rules? Every month or, at the very worst, every three, a list is published for all to see of how much councillors are spending and on what. Transparency in practice. Hiding nothing.

Any councillor who refuses is sent straight to IBAC (Independent Broad-Based Anti-Corruption Committee) for a full and formal investigation.

Anything less is unacceptable for ratepayers.

Ange Kenos, Tootgarook

Decision maker Just as the Great Genghis Khan didn’t need advice from lesser mortals, so too it appears our shire’s great leader, CEO Carl Cowie. He has made it clear in his “Councillor and staff interaction policy� that he is the “... only officer appointed by councillors ... (who) will decide whether a request (for information) by elected representatives (and presumably by electors) will be granted or denied�, (“New policy a surprise for councillors� The News 29/11/16).

I see this policy as suppressing the concept of democratic representative government, and tantamount to the head of the Commonwealth public service telling the federal parliament that he was the final arbiter of what information federal politicians could disclose.

Geoffrey Gordon, Mt Eliza

Councillors ‘nobbled’ Unable to understand the full implications of the machinations within the Mornington Peninsula Shire Council, I at least understand that the council bureaucrats have effectively nobbled our elected representatives, the councillors (“New policy a surprise for councillors� The News 29/11/16).

I have to wonder if this move is to prevent any further milking of the council cow by some councillors, such as trips to Copenhagen and Paris, paid personal education courses and abnormally large expenses.

Perhaps it might put a damper on the pet fantasies of some councillors, like expensive carbon emission reductions, solar lighting and even tourism promotion. (Wonderful tourists,

causing pollution, road accidents, chaos, loss of our amenities, and carbon emissions.)

Next, it would be really good to see the bureaucracy itself contract in size instead of forever empire building, expanding into unwanted and unnecessary services, causing ever increasing rates. Perhaps rates could then contract downwards. (Only joking).

Brian A Mitchelson, Mornington

Pool needed Leaving aside the responsibility of all parents to teach their darlings to swim and learn the times tables by the time they have completed sixth grade, I have a question for Premier Daniel Andrews. We have schools down here in Dromana, Rosebud, Rye and Sorrento teeming with children to that sixth grade, and one skinny mini pool in the Rosebud industrial area. What plans are in place for our excellent teachers to carry out his wishes?

Cliff Ellen, Rye

Not rascists I refer to Patricia Rayner’s letter (“White Australia� Letters 22/11/16) in which she accuses the immigration minister, and other Australians who do not support her ideas of how the immigration process should work, as being terrible people.

She states that all the people who arrived by boats and are being held in offshore detention centres should be released immediately, brought to Australia and be placed in our communities.

In her words, to do otherwise, is to be “brutal and devoid of compassion�.

She further states that these people are being held hostage; that we are practicing the White Australia Policy; that illegal arrivals are not a burden on Australia’s economy; that politicians are not listening to what people are saying; and that racist elements in our society are being pandered to.

I am highly offended by Ms Rayner’s accusatory rant, as I’m sure many others are.

Considering that Australia is one of only 27 countries in the world that takes refugees via the United Nation’s humanitarian program and consistently ranks in the top three resettlement countries in the world. This blows Ms Rayner’s statement that we are somehow white supremacists or “racists� completely out of the water.

No one is being held hostage. The people in the detention centres can return to their home

land. Many come from countries where there is no war or danger to them.

We haven’t practiced the White Australia Policy in decades and that would be easy for Ms Rayner to verify simply by taking a walk through any part of our city and seeing the diversity of our population.

Illegal arrivals cost billions a year in resettlement, housing, education, health, security and welfare costs.

I would encourage Ms Rayner to do some research before she makes such generalised, emotional, sweeping and highly insulting statements.

Christine Fry, Blairgowrie Editor: According to the Refugee Council of Australia “Asylum seekers who arrive in Australia by boat are neither engaging in illegal activity, nor are they immigrants. The UN Refugee Convention (to which Australia is a signatory) recognises that refugees have a lawful right to enter a country for the purposes of seeking asylum, regardless of how they arrive or whether they hold valid travel or identity documents.�

Argentina’s dog race ban Argentina has joined most other countries in banning greyhound racing. In July, NSW Premier Mike Baird banned racing in that state, saying that it is legal in only eight countries around the world. Now there is one less.

The unfortunate back-flip by the NSW government notwithstanding, this vile industry is destined for history’s dustbin.

Greyhounds used for gambling spend most of their miserable lives muzzled in cramped cages, except when they are taken out to race. These gentle, friendly dogs rarely hear a kind word or feel a loving touch. Many dogs die from illness and injuries, including broken legs, heatstroke and heart attacks. Those who survive usually only last a couple of years before they slow down and are discarded like rubbish. Thousands are euthanised simply because they don’t win enough races.

Informed, caring people aren’t interested in watching dogs race to their deaths, treated like they’re mere racing machines. Attendance is plummeting, tracks are closing, and it’s time for Australia to join the rest of the world and ban this cruel industry for good.

Desmond Bellamy, special projects coordinator, PETA Australia

Mornington News 6 December 2016

5982 3200

Brigade celebrates its first 100 years Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au ONE hundred years ago this month – on 11 December 1916 – a group of Mornington residents met at the Mechanics Institute in Main St to discuss forming a fire brigade.

At that time, Mornington was a small but progressive township with a population of 1100. It had about 500 houses, four churches, four hotels, state school, girls’ private school, two convent schools, post office, courthouse, police station and a lock-up.

It was the middle of World War I, less than a year after Gallipoli, and armies on both sides were bogged down

in the trenches and sustaining heavy losses in France.

Like towns all over Australia, Mornington had many men away fighting at the front and the war weighed heavily on people’s minds.

But life had to go on and, as early as 1915, it was felt the town had developed to a stage where it needed better firefighting arrangements. There was no piped water and people used wells, tanks and dams, but it was felt firefighting measures could still be improved and that tackling fires should not have to reply on helpful neighbours with buckets.

The loss of the stately residence ‘Marina’ – burnt to the ground with nothing being saved – galvanised pub-

lic thinking and the town’s progress association began investigating using a manual engine (a water tank on a cart) pulled by men or horses.

Public subscriptions raised money for hoses and a shed to house the engine and a letter to 500 property owners requested more support. It also made the point that insurance premiums would be reduced once the brigade was formed.

About 30 men had already volunteered to be firemen when the Mechanics Institute meeting discussed forming the brigade.

A letter was sent to the Country Fire Brigades Board in Melbourne formally requesting approval and, soon after, the board gave its support.

The Mornington Fire Brigade was registered with 20 founding members on 1 January 1917.

Next year is the brigade’s 100th year of service to Mornington and surrounding communities, and 1 January 2017 will mark its 100th anniversary.

To celebrate, the brigade has published a 100 year book, researched and authored by Colin Fisher, of the Mornington and District Historical Society.

Fire museum fire trucks will lead the Australia Day (Thursday 26 January) parade along Main St to Mornington Park, where CFA chief officer Steven Warrington will speak at a flag raising ceremony, followed by a multibrigade torchlight procession from the

park to the pier.

An open day at the fire station on Saturday 28 January will be attended by ex-captains who will discuss the 100-year book and sign copies.

Residents can chat with firefighters, inspect facilities, see over historical fire trucks and the current brigade fire appliances and equipment, and view fire brigade memorabilia.

Copies of the 100 year book and other merchandise will be on sale.

The brigade will host a community cocktail party at the fire station on Saturday 25 March. Members of the phe public will be able to make a small donation to have their names displayed as sponsors of a Brigade 100 year Community Wall.

Service offers ‘lift’ to drivers and vehicles Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au MOTORISTS who continue to drive while over 0.05 per cent are often certain they “won’t get caught” and can best avoid accidents by driving slowly.

They ignore the risks while maintaining that it is more convenient, cheaper and quicker to take their chances than seeking alternative transport.

Many blame alcohol for reducing their inhibitions and responsible decision-making.

But the possible dangers for them and other road users is high, and the costs – after getting pulled over – far outweigh any presumed savings.

These confronting findings emerged from a nation-wide online survey (Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn) by designated driver service WeDrive Australia, which is becoming increasingly popular on the Mornington Peninsula.

A follow up pilot study of 300 people has drawn positive feedback from clients who found the app-based service to be a useful alternative to driving – not only for locals but also for city visitors to the peninsula’s wineries and weddings.

CEO Yan Flageul designed the service after losing a friend to a drunken driver. It gives tipsy drivers the option of being driven home in their own car, without the inconvenience of having to retrieve it next morning – thus reducing their temptation to drink and drive.

The company now has around 200 drivers nationally and claims to be the first designated driver service to use phone apps. Its clients have direct access to an automated booking service, and can search for the first available team of drivers or book a trip in advance.

Somerville man Ian Birch has been a designated driver for just over 12 months and is delighted with how it supplements his income. He does four or five jobs on Fridays and Saturdays with a partner, and can make $200$300 on a weekend, depending on the

Mornington News 6 December 2016

distances he drives.

After being contacted via the app the pair arrange to drive clients to their homes from hotels, parties, and a range of functions in their own cars, with the partner following in his own car.

Fares start at $30 for five kilometres for a driving team.

A typical fare of 20km would be $90 – with clients secure in the knowledge that their cars will be safely parked in the driveways next morning.

Clients pay by credit card, similar to

Uber, and the drivers carry no cash.

“It’s surprising how many fares are under 10 kilometres,” Mr Birch said.

Adaptability is the key, with many fancy European cars having indicators and wipers on the “wrong” side, as well as manual gear boxes.

“It’s often a challenge talking to the clients as well as driving their cars home at the same time,” he said.

“You can go from a late model BMW to a 14-year-old Honda CRV in one night; anything might pop up.”

Clients may ask to be driven anywhere in Melbourne, as well as all

over the peninsula. “One good job was to Torquay driving a beautiful old Jag, and another is for one of our regulars, who we drive all the way from Mt Eliza to Blackburn.”

Drinking at home is a no-no – and never while he is on the roster. “I don’t drink anyway,” he said. “But it would be impractical because you really have to concentrate.

“Anyway, that’s the whole point of the service: it’s what we are against,” he said.

Clients often see the benefits of the service while being driven home.

“I’ve driven through booze buses many times and, on one occasion, the car in front was pulled in while we were waved through.

“The client said, “That car would have been me.”

While some fares are irksome simply because alcohol is involved, others are a joy. “On one memorable job I drove four delightful young ladies around Yarra Valley wineries for eight hours and really enjoyed it.”

Another favourite fare was driving a busload of businessmen to the Buchan Cup and hobnobbing with guests in a stylish marquee. “It was a two-day trip and I didn’t have to pay for a thing,” Mr Birch said.

The associated costs WeDrive’s its fee and the co-driver pays for his own petrol.

“The money is good but the knowledge that you are doing a good turn is important, too,” Mr Birch said.

“One night I drove a mum and dad home with their three children in their own safety seats and they were very grateful and it felt good.”

VIKA AND LINDA BULL For 30 years, the glorious voices of Vika and Linda Bull have comprised one of the most distinctive, versatile and emotionally charged sounds on the Australian music landscape.

Since their multi-platinum conquest of pop radio with the Black Sorrows in the late 1980s, the sisters have forged diverse pathways into soul, gospel, blues, country and the island music of their Tongan ancestry.

By turns tender and powerful, their rich solo vocals and instinctive harmonies have spawned eight albums of their own, as well as illuminating studio and concert performances by Paul Kelly, Rockwiz, C.W. Stoneking, Deborah Conway, Kasey Chambers and many more.

Their invitation to join Joe Camilleri’s Black Sorrows ushered in that band’s most successful era: Hold Onto Me, Harley and Rose and Better Times were all triple-platinum albums between ‘88 and ‘92, and the sisters’ prominent vocals captivated massive audiences, here and worldwide.

Vika & Linda, their debut album of 1994, was produced by Paul Kelly and written by some of the most accomplished songwriters of the era, including Paul Kelly, Joe Camilleri, Stephen Cummings, Mark Seymour and Nick Barker.

The next decade found the sisters embracing a range of musical possibilities on a string of albums.

On stage and in the studio, the sisters continue to seek challenges as diverse Tell The Angels, a gospel album recorded live in a Brunswick pub; Meet Me In the Middle of the Air, an innovative mix of jazz and gospel created by Paul Kelly and Paul Grabowsky; The Merri Soul Sessions presented by Paul Kelly and Paul Kelly’s Seven Sonnets & A Song. Additionally Vika has taken the lead in At Last The Etta James Story in which this incredible show saw its world premier in Melbourne in 2013 and since then has toured all the capital cities in Australia, completed two sold out seasons at The Sydney Opera House and in November of 2014 rocked an enthralled Kiwi crowd at the prestigious Aotea Centre in Auckland New Zealand.

Open your ears, and hold onto your heart.

Vika and Linda Bull will be playing at The Grand Hotel, Mornington, on Friday 16 December. Tickets at grand.oztix. com.au or www.grand.net.au

OBITUARY

Lindsay Thomson - teacher

By Peter McCullough LINDSAY Thomson, a well-known teacher on the Mornington Peninsula, died at Dromana on 8 November. A large number of friends and acquaintances, many from his teaching days, attended the funeral at Tobin Brothers Chapel, Mt. Martha, on 18 November. The service was conducted by celebrant Wendy Withers and the eulogy was given

by Lindsay’s son, Ian. Tributes were given by grandson Karlis Zaid and friend Basil Van Dongen, while another grandson, Andrew Thomson, read the poem “Miss Me But Let Me Go.” This obituary is based on Ian Thomson’s eulogy, supplemented with a personal experience or two. *** LINDSAY David Thomson was born in Williamstown on Christmas Day 1922, the fourth and youngest child of Wemyss and Jessie Thomson.

During the 1920’s the family prospered as work was plentiful for Wemyss who was an experienced Steam Engineer working at the woollen mills and on various boats in Williamstown. However tragedy struck the family in 1930 when Jessie became ill and died from stomach cancer, a month before Lindsay’s 8th birthday. At the same time, the financial effects of the Depression were compounding the problems of being a single parent family with four children. Despite all these tribulations, Lindsay and his siblings all came through these childhood experiences with strong, engaging personalities that served them well in their families, careers and the community.

Lindsay attended North Williamstown Primary School and was particularly friendly with the Dunstan children from the local dairy. He helped out in the dairy’s horse stables and when they bought their first car, a Ford 10, Lindsay looked after it for them and taught them how to drive.

However, at the age of 14 Lindsay’s driving career was temporarily interrupted when his uncle, who ran a garage in Newport, saw Lindsay and his friends driving past, and promptly informed his father.

At school Lindsay took up lacrosse, which he enjoyed, and joined the Williamstown Lacrosse Club, training two nights a week, with matches on Saturdays. He went on trips to Port Pirie, Hobart and Launceston with the club, but once he went to work away from Williamstown his lacrosse career ended.

Lindsay attended Williamstown High School, but as he did not really like school,he made a minimum effort. His real passion would have been following his father and eldest brother into working with machinery.

However, because of the effects of the Depression, his father made the decision that his remaining children that were still at school would go to university and work for the government.

Lindsay accepted this and although his first job was as a Messenger Boy at the Herald/Sun, he soon moved on to become a Clerk at the SEC in Flinders Street. Later that year, in October 1940, Lindsay took up a position as a Student Teacher at Yarraville West Primary School. He thought he would work for six weeks, have six weeks holiday and then do something else. Little did he realise that this was the start of a 43-year career with the Education Department.

A year later, after a 10-day training

course at Footscray Primary School, Lindsay’s next appointment was as the only teacher at Cudgewa North Primary School, south of Walwa and west of Corryong in north-east Victoria teaching 16 students. Lindsay then spent the following year, 1942, attending Melbourne Teachers’ College and completing his Teacher Training, before taking up his first position as a trained primary teacher in 1943 as the only teacher at Noorinbee North Primary School, north of Cann River in Gippsland, teaching 12 students.

He travelled to Cann River with his bike on the train and then rode his bike the 90 minute /23 km journey to his lodgings on a pig farm near the school. Later he saved up and bought a BSA 250 motor bike which enabled him to travel home on weekends, an 8-hour trip. Then followed Hollydale Primary School near Childers, also in Gippsland another one teacher school, with 18 students. This time he stayed on a potato farm. Unlike his secondary schooling, Lindsay received good reports from the schools’ inspector in each of these years.

However, he was restless and wanted a change. It was still wartime, so Lindsay joined the RAAF at the start of 1945. He was interested in becoming a pilot, as flying a plane appealed to him and involved another form of machinery. So, he enlisted and completed his initial training at Pt. Cook and Somers which was the theoretical training. However, he didn’t get to start the flying training as the war was ending and to Lindsay’s dismay he was made an “Education Officer” and sent to the 92 Beaufighter Squadron in Kingaroy in Queensland, where he remained until he was discharged at the end of the war four months later and sent home to Williamstown.

Mornington News 6 December 2016

Lindsay didn’t want to return to primary teaching, so his brother , a secondary school teacher , suggested that Lindsay should try secondary school teaching. It wasn’t long before he was appointed as a Temporary Secondary Teacher at Northcote High School, where he taught maths, science and geography. In 1946 he was also given the task of setting up and organising the Northcote High School Cadets involving 200 boys in 6 platoons of 32 boys each, running camps at Puckapunyal and Mt Martha at the old Balcombe Army Camp. For his efforts, he was made a Captain in the Army Reserve. He said that there were many types of cadets – tall, short, fat, slim, smart and not so smart, but there were only two uniform sizes: too big and too small.

During 1947 he met Olive Caffin at a dance in Melbourne. Olive and her sister Winnie had both moved to Melbourne from Adelaide. Olive was working as a stenographer at Ansett Airlines. In August 1948 Olive and Lindsay were married in Adelaide, followed by a honeymoon in Sorrento. At first the newly-weds rented a house in Williamstown, but shifted to Canterbury before the birth of their first child, Linda, in mid-1949. Three and a half years later Ian was born.

During 1947 Lindsay had decided to take up part time study at night at Melbourne University in order to progress as a secondary school teacher. After a few years of study and marriage, he applied for Part Time Study Leave which was granted by the Education Department. This allowed him to teach half time at Northcote High School and study the rest of the time at Melbourne University where he successfully completed a Bachelor of Arts in 1953.

In 1954 he was promoted to Senior

Teacher in charge of the secondary school section of Rushworth Higher Elementary School and this was where Lindsay and I first crossed paths. At Rushworth Lindsay’s preference for motor vehicles which were a little different became evident.

His “fleet” consisted of a small green German car called a DKW and a large beige American car, possibly an Oldsmobile. It is unlikely that anyone would have sufficiently fond memories of the DKW to form a DKW car club. The larger car, presumably of pre-war vintage, was always reluctant to start. This would prompt Lindsay to round up a group of senior boys after school and lead them across to the school residence where they were required to push the Oldsmobile.

Fortunately the school residence was on a slight rise which made pushing not so arduous; had it been uphill it would have been hernias all round!

Further promotions followed for Lindsay:  Mornington High School in 1958 as Senior Master teaching maths and geography. Although on a regulation size block it was here that Lindsay started acquiring cars for spare parts.

It was also here that he bought his first Peugeot 203.  Then came Bonbeach High School in 1964 as Senior Master teaching maths and geography and responsible for Timetable. From being a student at Rushworth, in 1965 I became a work colleague of Lindsay’s at Bonbeach. We started up a weekly squash game which continued for many years; in spite of our age difference Lindsay was always a fierce competitor Lindsay was of the old school and held strongly to the view that a bit of corporal punishment would encourage the most reluctant student. On

one celebrated occasion at Bonbeach a teacher sent a boy to Lindsay’s office to check on a time-tabling matter.

Lindsay, busy as ever, wrenched the door open, instructed the speechless student to hold his hand out, gave him two of the best, and sent him back to his classroom. Those were the days... Later in 1964 the family moved to a large double block on Nepean Hwy, Mornington where the Peugeot wrecking and spare parts hobby turned into a business after the tax office decided it was no longer a hobby. On one occasion while they lived at “Tooronga” there was a loud noise in the middle of the night.

Lindsay rushed outside in slippers and dressing gown to find a vehicle had failed to take the slight curve in the highway, and was resting upside down on the front lawn. It was a Peugeot 203. While they awaited the arrival of emergency vehicles, Lindsay ascertained from the driver, still strapped upside down in the vehicle, that he was not insured. Lindsay made an offer and the transaction was completed as emergency service vehicles arrived. Later that day it was towed to the back of the block to join the thirty other Peugeots in various states of repair, or disrepair. Only one vehicle was ever registered and this would require a shift of number plates to the vehicle which was in the best running order.  Lindsay’s first position as Principal was at Pakenham High School in 1969. It was new school and Lindsay supervised its move into new buildings on the Princes Highway, where it rapidly grew in his time there. Despite being a first-time Principal,the school was established on good standards; he was firm, but fair, where student discipline was not a problem, unlike many schools today. .

and Peugeot accumulator  Then came Parkdale High School in 1973. Once again the family, by this time, Lindsay, Olive, and grandson, Karlis, moved to Beleura Hill Road, Mornington and Lindsay bought his first factory to store the large number of Peugeot cars from the Nepean Highway house.

In 1978 Lindsay took long service leave, travelling both in Australia and overseas with Olive and Karlis, visiting Olive’s relatives in England and travelling to Wick in the north of Scotland to see the fishing village from where the Thomsons emigrated.

They also travelled through much of Europe before returning home.  On his return from leave, Lindsay was sent to Caulfield High School as a trouble-shooter in 1979.

The Principal had suddenly resigned without notice and the Deputy Principal had a nervous breakdown after considerable industrial unrest at the school. Lindsay was required to bring the school under control and minimise industrial action- which he did. For the next three years, he worked for the Board of Inspectors doing school reviews and teacher assessments throughout Victoria.  After turning 60 in December 1982, Lindsay’s last assignment was as a relieving Principal at Exhibition High School in Carlton in 1983, while the Principal took long service leave. He retired in Term Two of that year. ***.

In retirement, Lindsay was finally able to fully indulge his passion for cars. He sold his first small factory and set up his Peugeot and Renault wrecking business, Peugparts, in the newer larger factory. He ran the business for six years, before deciding to retire from work altogether.

In 1995, Lindsay and Olive moved from Mornington to Mt Waverley to a double block with a single bedroom apartment attached to the main house and a big double garage. The apartment was for Linda primarily, but she came and went from time to time as she battled with drug issues which were to eventually take her life.

Despite his passion being with cars and things mechanical generally, Lindsay had a strong belief in the value of education and encouraged Linda, Ian and Karlis to gain a tertiary education and become selfsufficient. Linda’s battles with drugs, especially in a time where very few families had experienced the insidious nature of the addict’s behaviour found Lindsay and Olive ill prepared for dealing with this sort of crisis. But deal with it they did and through it all they managed to continue to live their lives, when it could have destroyed many other couples. They also took over raising Karlis from Linda when he was 7 years of age and have produced a fine actor/singer/song & scriptwriter, who is self-sufficient and a contributing member of society.

Meanwhile, Olive’s health was

declining and by 2002 she had been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s Disease.

They moved to a retirement village in Mornington where Lindsay cared for her until 2005, when he was no longer able to manage her by himself and she went into respite care. Olive died not long after in November 2005.

Lindsay later moved to another retirement village in Berwick to be near a station until the end of 2014 when he lived with Ian and his wife, Marie, for 3 months before obtaining a place at an aged care facility nearby in Safety Beach.

Probably as a result of his early life challenges, Lindsay was always pragmatic and accepting of what life served up to him; not complaining or looking for others to blame, but just getting on with whatever was required to be done at that time. It did not always produce the required result, but it allowed him to move on, by stopping his mind from dwelling on issues that were outside his control.

So, despite any challenges in his life, Lindsay lived a good life with virtually no serious health issues for 90 odd years and even in the aged care facility he was happy with his lot, joining in the activities and loved by all the staff. It was there that he met and nursed his first and only great-grandchild, Andi, who was five months old at the time.

HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS

Summer ears!

“WELL, I went to the beach, and the next thing I know, my ears were completely blocked after swimming”.

Peninsula ear nurse Chris, from Crystal Clear Ears, hears that story every summer. Chris spends her own summer holidays on the local beaches, but this year she will help beach-goers with their ear problems, at her new clinic in Tanti Ave, Mornington.

Ear nurses use the latest Micro-suction technology to clear your ears, which is gentle, waterfree & professional.

Mostly, the blockage is as simple as ear wax, but sometimes due to an infection. Over the year, earwax slowly collects without you realising it. You head off to the beach, jump in the water, the wax swells up, and suddenly you have a blocked ear.

Blocked ears drive you mad, and you just can’t enjoy your holiday until you get them cleared.

How do you know if the blockage is a swimmers ear infection? Your ear will be painful, blocked and very itchy. It may have liquid in it, and feel swollen in the worst cases. A thorough Micro-suction ear clean will clear it all out.

Some eardrops may be needed to help get your ear back to normal. It is important to keep the infected ear dry.

Chris says that many people book in for their annual ear clean in December, so they can avoid an emergency trip to the ear nurse or doctor in the middle of their holiday.

The facts about foot and leg pain DID you know more than 80% of Australians will experience serious foot and leg problems at some point in their lives?

The most common foot and leg ailments include: Heel pain (most commonly referred to as Plantar Fasciitis); Knee pain, injuries and arthritis; Shin pain; Achilles concerns; Ankle pain or injury; Arch pain and Bunions. All of these can be caused or aggravated by faulty biomechanics and/or bad foot posture continually pulling your body out of alignment.

Most of these concerns, however, can be quite easily addressed if diagnosed correctly and treated appropriately.

Dr. David Kavanagh, musculoskeletal and sports podiatrist at one of Australia’s leading foot & leg pain and injury practices says, “At our Foot & Leg Pain Clinics we see so

many people who have been incorrectly diagnosed & have been provided unsuitable or inappropriate treatment. Many others are being told that nothing can be done for them or that surgery and medication are their only options, which is so often not the case. With correct diagnosis, the utilization of the latest medically researched treatments and appropriate application, we’re able to treat most foot and leg pain quite easily, even cases that have been untreatable in the past, which is really exciting.”

So don’t just put up with foot and leg pain, injury or arthritis.

Foot & Leg Pain Clinics are located right across Melbourne including Mt. Eliza, Rosebud, Berwick and Moorabbin . For appointments call 1300 328 300.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Pair convicted of drunkenness in Frankston Compiled by Cameron McCullough FRANKSTON Court of Petty Sessions. Thursday 7th December, 1916.

Before Messrs S. Sherlock and W. J. Oates. Js. P. DISORDERLY VISITORS. Constable Ryan charged Kenneth Logan and Charles Brodie with having been found drunk and disorderly in a public place to wit Beach Street at Frankston on Wednesday night, 6th December.

Prisoners at first pleaded not guilty and afterwards amended their plea to guilty.

Constable Ryan informed the court that it was alleged that on the evening of 6th December two drunken men who answered to accused’s description, followed two ladies, using offensive language to them and generally misbehaving.

The ladies were obliged to hail a passing vehicle in order to escape from their unwelcome attendants. The ladies endeavoured to communicate with the police by telephone but, as there is no telephone at the local police station, a delay of some hours occurred before witness received word of the offence.

He then went in search of the offenders and at 11pm he arrested the two accused whom he found drunk and disorderly in Beach Street, Frankston.

The ladies did not desire to come forward as witnesses to identify the men, so therefore witness intended to proceed only on the charge of drunkenness.

The bench severely lectured the

prisoners and told them to take warning by their narrow escape from a more serious charge.

Each man was then fined 5s or 24 hours imprisonment. The fines were paid. *** THE friends of Pte F Murray of Somerville have been notified that he has been wounded (the second time) while in action in France. No particulars are to hand. *** THE object is worthy, the artists are worthy, and a worthy audience is expected at the Scotch Concert in aid of Xmas Bag Fund, for Langwarrin soldiers. *** A PAINTER named Minton met with a painful accident on Wednesday while painting on the roof of the of the Somerville Hotel Billiard room.

Through some mishap he lost his footing and fell to the ground sustaining a compound fracture of the leg below the knee.

Mr Coop conveyed him by cart to Melbourne Hospital where his injuries were attended to. *** GENERAL regret was expressed in Frankston on Wednesday, when word was received from the Defence Department that Sapper F. Burton had been, killed in action in France on November 6th.

He has lived in Frankston since boyhood, and gained the esteem and good will of all who knew him.

Heartfelt sympathy is extended to the widow and children who are left

to mourn their great and sad loss. *** MR A. W. Taylor, of the Frankston Motor Garage, has just been appointed agent for the Peninsula, for the famous “Trumbull” and “Victory” cars.

The former is a very snappy light car, with Australian built, three-seater body while the latter, a full size touring car although practically new to this country, is designed especially to meet the rough condition of most of our roads, and is replete with the very latest equipment. *** WE are pleased to record the fact that two sons of Dr Plowman have gained some distinction in College athletics.

At Duntroon Military College, Mr Frank Plowman has again secured the Mile Walk Championship, and is runner up for the Singles Tennis Championship.

Mr Sidney Plowman, junr., has tied with Mr Fetherstonhaugh for Championship in Gymnastics, at Geelong Grammar School.

Since the above was in print we notice that in the list of Trinity College Scholarships, published on the 7th inst, the name of Sidney Plowman, as having gained a Warden’s scholarship of the value of £25. *** WE are requested to call attention to an alteration in the date of the sixth presentation to Frankston volunteers to Thursday, December 21st.

His Honor Sir John Madden G.C.M.G., L L.D., D C. L. etc, has very kindly consented to make the

presentations and deliver an address, on the occasion.

We also have much pleasure in making an earnest request to friends of recent Frankston volunteers to forward to the hon. Sec., Dr Plowman, the names, and exact camp addresses of such recruits.

The labors of the committee will be much lessened thereby. *** THE return match between Langwarrin Camp Cricket Club and Frankston Cricket Club will the place today (Saturday). The soldiers expect to defeat the seasiders and the band will be in attendance to play the conquering heroes home.

A full attendance of “bots” is requested. *** ATTENTION is drawn to Military notice warning the public against entering the danger zone while rifle practice is being carried on.

It is found that visitors and others take unnecessary risk by walking immediately behind the stop butts and entering the danger zone.

There has been no accident on the Langwarrin since it was laid out over 16 years ago, and the authorities are determined to maintain their good reputation. *** IN consequence of the decline of several rifle clubs in the Mornington Peninsula, and the rise of miniature rifle clubs, the Cheltenham rifle club has made arrangements to allow any resident of the Mornington Peninsula to enter their Club.

The Club meets for practice at the Langwarrin Rifle Range on alternate Saturdays, as per syllabus.

The membership fee is 5s per annum with munition free, and free railway pass to Port Melbourne Competition for trophies is open to all members.

The annual reunion is one of the features of the bayside town.

Full particulars can be obtained from the Secretary, Mr J. H. Merrifield, secretary Rifle Club, Cheltenham. *** BRITAIN’S war bill up to the end od March 1917, will amount to £3,883,000,000 including advances to the Allies. *** AUSTRALIAN workers to the number of 450 are being sent by the Defence Department to work in munition factories in England. *** THE competition for competitive designs for the Federal parliament House in Canberra has been indefinitely postponed. *** GERMAN submarines have sunk another hospital ship, with 400 cases of sickness on board, in Greek waters. *** THE State Ministry is to endeavour to obtain stocks of brown coal from the Morwell fields for use in factories. *** From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 9 December, 1916

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

A post-truth post mortem

By Stuart McCullough SO long evidence. It seems the world has truly fallen out of the love with you. So much so that the term ‘post-truth’ has been crowned ‘word of the year’. I’m not entirely sure what the award ceremony for ‘word of the year’ is like, having pretty much lost interest in it after Beyonce got the gong for ‘Bootylicious’. In an ideal world, I’d like to think that ‘post-truth’ nailed it with a great performance in the swimsuit section. Even if that weren’t so, it wouldn’t matter at all, given that the world in general has now surrendered to the idea that saying something that’s spectacularly untrue is now a legitimate tool of communication.

Facts are not what they used to be. Which, generally speaking, was useful. Instead, facts are old hat. They’re the horse and cart of public discourse.

Worse than that, they get in the way of the point I’m truly trying to make. Which is precisely why they need to be called out as the disease carrying, terrorist-supporting cause of climate change that they are. It’s well accepted that ever since facts starting arriving here in 1834 on board the USS Enterprise that things in general have gone to hell in a handcart. And the sooner we get used to doing without facts clogging our arteries and melting the polar caps, the better off we’ll all be.

Truth be told (and from now on, it probably shouldn’t be) I am at least partly to blame. I wasn’t much for science in school. It never seemed as interesting to me as English and creative writing where making things up was pretty much the done thing. My eyes glazed over in biology. The mere mention of the words ‘Bunsen burner’ would plunge me into a torpor from which it would take me most of the day to recover.

In retrospect, I deeply regret my lack of engagement. Having reacted to matters of science and evidence with a shrug of the shoulders and a nonchalant ‘meh’ means that I’m especially vulnerable in the post-truth world. Because the problem with

Source: www.weeklyworldnews.com

facts and things that aren’t facts is that it’s now very difficult to tell them apart. It’s like they’re twins that have only just starting dressing in identical clothes. I suppose I never thought science would be much use to me. Or, perhaps, I simply assumed that facts would always be there. It never really occurred to me that they’d be under threat.

But, on the bright side, the dawn of the post-truth world has some serious advantages. It means that events from my childhood in which I did not so much embellish the truth as I did brazenly violate

its sanctity can now be reappraised. I would have been grade one when I got into a fight. I don’t remember the details, save that I was held down by a couple of kids while one of my fellow students pretended to be a horse and kicked me. It sounds terrible, but it’s possible that these egregious attacks were precipitated by some kind of action on my part. In short, it’s distinctly possible that I had acted like a twerp.

News of this schoolyard drubbing set the quadrangle ablaze. Some students asked me if I was

all right. Deeply embarrassed, instead of brushing off the events as I should have done, I used my imagination to make the situation sound far more horrifying than it actually was. When the whole debacle came to the attention of my teacher, I falsely claimed that I had been treated in hospital.

It is fair to say that merry hell then broke loose.

Parents were called and the other student hauled in for punishment. It soon emerged that I’d not required medical intervention at all, at which point the weather vane of primary school retribution turned swiftly in my direction. I was in trouble.

In fact, it was enough trouble to last me the rest of my life, as it’s a lesson I’ve never really forgotten.

The consequences of lying can be profound. Or so I thought. If I were to reappraise these events, my claims would no longer be considered a lie but as ‘post-truth’. They might even win me a prize of some kind.

But post-truth is much more than a tool by which to reappraise the past. It’s really about the future. Apparently there is now such a thing as ‘fake news’. That is, news that is only real in a kind of ‘I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter’ kind of way. The proliferation of fraud as the new reality means there can never really be consensus on anything. Ever. Instead, we’re condemned to a state of perpetual antagonism and snarling conflict.

So here we are. The earth is flat. The sky is pink and purple polka dots. The moon landing was filmed in a back lot studio between episodes of ‘I Dream of Jeannie’. Phar Lap was an android built from leftover transistor parts and Flipper was played not by an aquatic mammal but by Charles Laughton in really, really heavy makeup.

And Fidel Castro isn’t dead; he’s just resting his eyes. Granted, I can’t back any of those assertions up with anything remotely resembling evidence.

But, when all’s said and done, I don’t need to. And that’s the (post) truth. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Mounties shoot to the top PROVINCIAL

By IT Gully MT ELIZA has shot to the top of the MPCA Provincial ladder after recording its second outright victory for the season against Pines on Saturday.

While the Mounties have moved to the top of the table, the top four have now given themselves a buffer of 24 points.

Langwarrin, in fourth place, recording a convincing win against Moorooduc with leaders Jake Prosser and Travis Campbell starring with the bat.

Baxter star Chris Brittain was at his sensational best with an amazing 155 to help his side record a 50 plus run win against Mornington.

Peninsula Old Boys are in second place on the ladder after hanging on in a thriller against Pearcedale.

In other results, Sorrento knocked over Long Island by six wickets and

Somerville proved too strong for Crib Point, who are experiencing a rough trot.

Chris Brittain was without question the story of round five in the match between Baxter and Mornington.

Arguably the best all-rounder in our game right now, Brittain blasted 18 fours and six sixes to help his side thrash Mornington.

The Doggies opened well, picking up openers Joe Rule and skipper Daniel Warwick to have the home side on the back foot at 2/38.

However Brittain, along with Justin Bridgeman who scored 66, quickly took the game away from the visitors.

By the time Bridgeman was out, Baxter was already five runs ahead and the 12 points were in the bank.

Pearcedale went within 40 runs of chasing down Peninsula Old Boys 266 on Saturday.

At various stages throughout the con-

test, it appeared that the Panthers were going to cause an upset, however, the Old Boys claimed important scalps at important times to grab yet another victory.

Brad Trotter got the Panthers away to a solid start with 54 and formed a solid partnership with Chris Dew, who top scored with 70.

Max Blackburn (24) and Shayne Gillings (34) did all the hard work in the middle, making the most of the foundation that had been laid for them.

Their wickets were the difference between winning and losing the match, eventually dismissed for 237.

Skipper Kaine Smith, as he so often does, gave the visitors some hope late in the innings with 22, however when he went, it was all over from there.

The Olds Boys are a very professional outfit who are at the opposition relentlessly all day. It was this attitude that saw them win the match and main-

tain their strong position at the top of the ladder.

Langwarrin was in a strong position overnight against Moorooduc at 1/65 chasing 155 for victory and were never in an kind of trouble when play begun on day two.

Simon McEvoy (39) and Joel Bateman (40) got the Kangas away to a solid start and then Aaron Edwards (29), Jake Prosser (59) and Travis Campbell (68) dominated.

Prosser, who has been extremely patient this season, belted four fours and five sixes in his innings, while Campbell smashed 15 fours in his innings.

Langwarrin declared at 5/263 before sending the Ducs back out into the middle.

The Ducs were never in any trouble, finishing the day on 4/134 as the Kangas used eight bowlers, including McEvoy, who went for 10 off one over.

Mt Eliza was just 39 runs from vic-

tory when it resumed play at 2/50 on day two against Pines. The Mounties finished at 8/163 before sending the Piners back into bat.

After scoring just 88 in the first innings, Pines fared worse in its second dig, bowled out for just 79. The Mounties needed just eight runs to pick up the outright victory.

Justin Grant picked up an amazing 5/5 from eight overs in the second innings, giving him match figures of 8/18 off 26.5 overs, including 17 maidens.

Crib Point got its season back on track with a great victory against Somerville.

Chasing 233 for victory, the Magpies got the win with three wickets and plenty of overs to spare.

The top order set up the win with Henry Dolphin scoring 42, Matt Blake 69 and Luke Herrington 58, while Ricky Thompson once again chimed in when it was required with 21.

their own way against Seaford Tigers but still managed to record a 42-run win.

In other results in perfect conditions on Saturday, Baden Powell went within four wickets of recording an outright win against Boneo, Rosebud hung on to win a tight one against Heatherhill by 32 runs and Delacombe Park recorded a comprehensive win against Seaford.

Rye was unable to avoid yet another outright loss against Flinders.

Flinders batted first and declared with eight overs left on the first day at 9/226.

Rye faced the final eight overs of the day and lost Beau Suffern and resumed on day two at 1/11.

They were bowled out for 77 before being sent straight back in.

Max Royal with 4/14 was the best of the bowlers in the first innings while Tom Clements snared 3/11 from eight overs. Clements picked up 4/23 in the second innings for Flinders, however Rye avoided outright defeat, finishing on 8/116.

Boneo resumed at 1/59 against Baden Powell, who scored 9/242.

Things weren’t as positive on the second day though for the Pandas, bowled out for 170.

Baden Powell then fired off a quick 2/125 before sending the Pandas back in to bat. The home side finished at 6/106.

Rosebud set Heatherhill 218 for

victory in their match at Olympic Park and for the visitors, it was a score they couldn’t chase down.

Although Kristian Miller scored 48 and Christian Heath 28 at the top of the innings, things couldn’t get going in the middle order.

Matty Meagher led a slight revival with 30 but the Hills were eventually rolled for 185.

Jason Nagel was at his vintage best for the Buds with 5/65 from 28 overs while Billy Quigley chimed in with 4/51 from 24 overs.

Seaford resumed on day two at 1/23 against Delacombe Park. They were rolled for 125.

Dean Blight was the pick of the bowlers with 4/38, while Rob Fisher,

Andrew Stapleton and Ricky Ramsdale all picked up two wickets each.

Seaford Tigers had their work cutout to hunt down the 280 required for victory against Mt Martha.

The Tigers did well though, scoring 6/237 before the match was declared a draw.

Ash Mills scored 82 and David James hit 62, while Aaron Mountey hit 47.

Kyle Bendle was outstanding with the ball for the Reds with 5/44 from 17.3 overs.

Red Hill easily accounted for Main Ridge.

Resuming at 1/64, chasing 103, the Hillmen declared at 7/195. Main Ridge was 6/137 at the end of play.

Tight at the top of District DISTRICT

By IT Gully A LOG-JAM continues at the top of the ladder in MPCA District cricket after the conclusion of round five on Saturday.

There are nine teams all within a game of the top four with Red Hill, Flinders and Mt Martha all providing themselves with a little buffer after recording wins on Saturday.

Both Red Hill and Flinders failed in their attempt to record outright wins over Main Ridge and Rye respectively on Saturday after being in strong positions to do so, however, still recorded strong victories.

Blues on their own SUB-DISTRICT

By IT Gully HASTINGS sits alone at the top of the MPCA Sub District ladder after smashing Carrum Downs on Saturday.

The Blues took 20 wickets for just 164 runs against the Cougars, giving them a 14 point break at the top of the ladder.

It was one of Carrum Downs’ worst results in recent times while Hastings appears to be flexing its muscles after a couple of years in lean times.

In other round five results, Dromana won a nail biter against Tootgarook,

Carrum was too strong for Balnarring, Ballam Park upset Frankston YCW and Skye recorded a rare win against the up and down Tyabb.

The match of the round was no doubt between Dromana and Tootgarook.

The Frogs set the visitors 187 for victory after being bowled out in week one in the 78th over for 186.

After a wobbly beginning and a middle order collapse, Dromana’s Zac Clan and Craig Dunlop put on a 38-run partnership for the ninth wicket to get their team across the line.

The Hoppers looked to be in some strife at 6/90, however, Jedd Savage

(61) was able to offer some resistance.

It was then left to Clan and Dunlop to knuckle down and get the runs required to grab the all-important 12 points.

AJ King was the front line bowler for Tootgarook with 4/37 from 28 overs, including 14 maidens. Matty Whelan jagged 2/59 from 17 overs.

The scoreboard will show that Ballam Park recorded a solid 25 run win against Frankston YCW, however, the scoreboard isn’t always the best indicator.

The Knights had just two batsmen score double figures on Saturday, Stuart Plunkett scoring 54 and Jay Yates, bat-

ting at nine, hitting 46. It was enough to record a win.

At one stage the Knights were in a world of pain at 5/33, then lost 2/1 to be 7/62.

The Stonecats, who batted again and were 0/90 at the end of play, shared the wickets.

Lai Leaunoa was the pick of them with 3/48 from 29 overs, the evergreen Andy Kitson snared 3/45 from 25 overs and Jack Butland helped himself to 3/32 from 13 overs.

Hastings added just a further 40 runs to its overnight score and lost six wickets, however, it was enough for an out-

right win over Carrum Downs.

The Blues responded with 197 in reply to the Cougars first innings total of 62.

Hastings then bowled the visitors out a second time for 102.

Isuru Dias was outstanding for the Blues in the second innings, claiming 6/27 from 11 overs.

Balnarring was bowled out for 189, chasing Carrum’s 256 and Skye bounced back from being 1/15 overnight to score 7/198 to get the win after Tyabb scored 156.

Andrew Craddock was superb for the winners with 70.

Imports galore as Langy goes all out for title SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie LANGWARRIN’S assault on the 2017 State 1 South-East championship will be powered by a raft of visa players.

The Lawton Park outfit will throw down the gauntlet to local clubs Mornington and Casey Comets and cashed up Greek-backed opponents Malvern City, Clifton Hill, South Springvale and Caulfield United Cobras by backing the quality of its imports to take the league by storm.

Central defender and former Macclesfield Town youth team captain Kieron Kenny has agreed terms with Langy and should arrive within a fortnight.

Kenny, 23, is currently on the books of Congleton Town in the Hallmark Security League, which is the former North West Counties League in England.

Kenny is a friend of Langy defender Andy McIntyre and looms as an ideal replacement for 2016 Langwarrin captain Alex van Heerwarden who quit the club recently and joined nearby rival Casey Comets in a move that caused ructions at Lawton Park.

“I want players that want to play for Langy and any players that leave the club I’m confident that we can replace them with better players,” said Langwarrin senior coach Gus Macleod.

The canny Glaswegian will be at the helm for a record 19th straight season having joined Langy near the end of last century, a remarkable feat in a sport renowned for brief coaching tenures.

Classy capture: Alex Metcalfe

Connor’s coming: Connor Belger

Top target: Kieron Kenny

There was a buzz about the club on Thursday when pre-season training started and Macleod is looking forward to seeing his new signings in Langy colours.

Kenny has played in the Swedish Second Division with Gaellivare Malmberget and figured prominently in a 2-2 draw with AFC Liverpool in September.

The significance of that league clash is that two more Langy imports featured for AFC Liverpool, 23-year-olds Connor Belger and Paul Speed and they are due to arrive in Australia with their partners in midJanuary.

Belger and Speed are former teammates at Formby and have been recommended by ex-Langy marquee player and former England youth international Kevin Townson.

Belger is a midfielder while Speed can play in midfield or up front.

Towering central midfielder Mat Luak, 25, is another Langy capture

and was prominent in Thursday’s training game.

The 194cm Sudanese powerhouse from Morwell Pegasus has silky skills and is a former Altona Magic star who also has played college football in the US. Macleod has been in charge of the Scotland team in this year’s All Nations’ Cup, an annual tournament held at Egan Lee Reserve in Knoxfield, and he’s snapped up two more visa players in Scotsman Aaran Currie and Englishman Alex Metcalfe.

Currie is a teenage winger who has been involved with Hearts, Hibs, Livingston, Hutchison Vale and Preston Athletic and joined Moreland City in Victoria’s NPL 2 for the back half of last season while 22-year-old Metcalfe is a left-sided player who has had stints with Hull City, Scarborough Athletic, Harrowgate Town and Ossett Albion.

Former Brighton and Hove Albion and Pagham defender or midfielder

Alfie Bunker, who has been playing with Doncaster Rovers in Melbourne, quicksilver forward Nasser Mohammad from Casey Comets and teenage Kenyan midfielder Sulieman Ahmad Mahfudh from Hampton Park United also are on Langy’s radar.

“We’ve been stable for the last few years so now’s the time to give the supporters and the whole club something to cheer about,” said Macleod.

“I’ve won championships with every club I’ve been with so I know what it takes.

“It’s about getting the balance right and just remember we’ve got a lot of younger players who now have first team experience, guys like Solly, Brandon, Kurt, CK and Dylan.

“We’re going to give this title a good shot. Last season we competed with the top six but bringing in more quality players means it’s time we started beating these types of teams.

“I’d like nothing better than to be

in my 20th year here with the club in the NPL.” Entrance to Victoria’s elite National Premier League setup is the carrot being dangled in the faces of State 1 clubs in 2017 and this has sparked a signing frenzy.

However, one player unlikely to return to Lawton Park is Warragul United captain Thomas Ahmadzai.

One of the gun central midfielders in the competition, Ahmadzai has been courted by both Langy and Mornington among others but is likely to remain with Warragul.

If Macleod can retain Robbie Acs, James Foster, McIntyre, Nick Thorogood, Boris Ovcin, Johnny Guthrie, Grant Lane, Sam Scott, Caleb Nicholes and Nabil Mozaffaruddin he may have assembled the strongest squad in the club’s history.

Koray Suat and Chris Driver have retired while Anthony Selemidis is believed to be pursuing business interests.

Langy’s war chest has benefitted from increased sponsorship from former player Greg Kilner, the principal of Premier Builders’ Group, and another former player in Craig Hosie, managing director of civil construction company LOJAC, who recently joined Premier as a main sponsor.

Macleod’s support staff again includes assistants Neil Collyer and Robert Mathieson with Robert Mathieson senior as team manager.

Tanya Wallace has stepped down after two successful years as club president, a role once more in the capable hands of John Heskins.

A celebration of Australia’s newest Toyota showroom MORNINGTON Peninsula’s only authorised Toyota dealer proudly announces the completion of the most modern and technically advanced Toyota sales and service facilities in Australia.

Mornington Toyota’s Managing Director and Dealer Principal Anthony Smith, who has owned Mornington Toyota for the past four years, said that the investment was long overdue and the new home of Toyota on the peninsula is something he is very proud of.

“We’ve gone to painstaking lengths to ensure that our new facilities not just meet, but exceed the exacting criteria of modernToyota dealerships”.

Mr Smith, who is also an involved peninsula local has said that he emphatically believes that motorists on the peninsula are among the most discerning in Australia.

“We’ve created a car dealership that will attract our guests”.

Over the coming months, Mornington Toyota will, no doubt, be attracting guests from all over the state to what is regarded “the benchmark in car retailing”.

Mr Smith believes that peninsula residents will have no reason to go beyond their local Toyota dealer for the ultimate in sales, service and parts, that is second-to none!

Their coveted Toyota “Five Star Guest Experience” rating for superior service already underpins this.

When the new showroom doors open to the public on December 5, we’ll be celebrating with huge savings on the entire Toyota range of cars, commercial vehicles and 4X4’s.

Mr Smith commented that after nearly twelve months, “it feels like Christmas has come early for me. Our guests will think so too, with the spectacular deals we have on offer!”

Mornington Toyota is located at 915 Nepean Highway, Mornington; 200 metres north of Main Most modern and technically advanced in Australia: Mornington Toyota’s brand new showroom Street.

The stars in the bright sky looked down where he lay, The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay.

The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes, But little Lord Jesus no crying he makes.

I love thee, Lord Jesus; Look down from the sky, And stay by my side until morning is nigh.

Be near me Lord Jesus,I ask Thee to stay Close by me for ever and love me I pray Bless all the dear children in thy tender care And fit us for heaven to live with Thee there.

GIFT GUIDE 2016

Stay safe and enjoy the drive THIS time of year is one of the most high-risk times on the roads with many people driving to Christmas parties, end of year celebrations, and heading on holidays for a well-deserved break. Drivers must remember that travelling during holiday periods can be more risky because of increased traffic volumes, congestion, tiredness, people driving in unfamiliar environments, and a higher number of people who are driving under the influence of alcohol. Unfortunately, road accidents and fatalities over the Christmas period are often significantly worse than the rest of the year. Tragically, a percentage of these accidents and fatalities are often preventable.

Before you, your family and friends get behind the wheel this festive season, make sure you are ready, and able, to drive. Here are a few tips to help you get there safely.

Plan Ahead and Be Flexible.

Take the time to plan your trip. Plan which route you are going to take and identify the places you are going to stop and rest along the way. If possible, plan to travel in non-peak traffic and congestion times, and do not plan to drive for more than 2 hours without a break. Take the time to recover at your rest spots.

Be Alert to Changes. Check relevant traffic and travel information when you plan your Christmas/ Holiday road trip. This may help you

plan a route around traffic congestion and road works.

Drive to the Conditions.

“Conditions” doesn’t just mean the weather conditions. Also take into account the traffic conditions, speed limits, state laws, the children in the car, and your ability to drive.

Be Aware of Fatigue. Tiredness is a major cause of fatal accidents

on Australian roads. At this time of the year, many people are driving long distances on unfamiliar roads.

You may choose to leave in the early hours of the morning to avoid traffic, which means you are driving when your body is programmed to sleep.

Australia Wide First Aid advises you not to drive when you would otherwise be sleeping. Fatigue will

set in, and the only cure is sleep.

Identify the Safest Route, not the Fastest. Some routes are safer than others. Take into account hazards such as trees, ditches, narrow shoulders, potholes and dirt roads.

These hazards can contribute to the accident risk. Don’t forget to take extra caution on higher risk, rural

roads.

Before you Travel. Check your vehicle including tyre tread, and pressure, lights, brakes, engine oil, coolant and power steering fluid.

Consider getting a car service before you head off for your journey.

Check your Trailers and Caravans.

Ensure all attachments including chains and plugs are secure. If you are pulling an open trailer, make sure everything is tied down.

Be Patient. Holiday driving can be frustrating with busy roads and potentially slower sightseeing travellers. Fellow cars could also be full of impatient children asking “Are We There Yet?”. Be courteous and patient and don’t be provoked by other driver’s aggressive behaviour.

Buckle Up Safely. Seat belts save lives. It is as simple as that. If you are driving, it is your responsibility that every passenger is buckled up before you start the engine.

Remember, You are sharing the Road. Traffic volumes undoubtedly increase during the holiday season.

As it is a time for holidays, there are often larger, slower vehicles in addition to those towing trailers, caravans and camper-vans. Always follow at a safe distance and don’t over take unless it is guaranteed to be safe, preferably using an overtaking lane.

GIFT GUIDE 2016

Check the car before summer holidays BEFORE the holidays and a road trip to a favourite beach or inland destination, a pre-summer check of the car should be a priority.

The RACVâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s website states the most common problem affecting motorists during summer is an overheated engine, but a few simple checks can reduce the risk of being stranded.

The pre-summer checklist should include not only the radiator and cooling system, but also the electrical system, brakes and tyres, plus an overall â&#x20AC;&#x153;spring cleanâ&#x20AC;?.

Cooling system Top up your radiator coolant to the required level, taking care to add the correct amount of coolant mixture as recommended by the vehicle manufacturer.

Check all radiator hoses (including heater hoses) for firmness, replace any that are spongy or leaking, and keep spares of the main hoses and belts in the boot for emergencies.

The fan belt and any other drive belts, such as for air-conditioning or power steering, need to be inspected thoroughly â&#x20AC;&#x201C; for fraying and correct tension â&#x20AC;&#x201C; so they do not slip. Any belts that are even slightly frayed should be replaced.

Electrical Batteries manufactured nowadays are maintenance-free but check the water level and top them up if necessary. Use distilled water â&#x20AC;&#x201C; never use tap water as it will harm the battery.

Routine maintenance should include removing any corrosion from battery

terminals, which can then be smeared with petroleum jelly to slow the corrosion process.

An added precaution is to wipe the high-tension leads, sparkplugs and distributor cap with a dry cloth.

Tyres All tyres, including the spare, must be properly inflated to cope with the demands of long trips and hot weather.

Check the pressures when the tyres are cold.

Recommended tyre pressures are

printed on a sticker affixed to most cars. Tread depth should not be less than a match head. Many tyres now have tread wear indicators to remove the guesswork.

Uneven wearing of tyres may indicate a fault with the steering, suspension or wheel alignment, and these items should be checked if in doubt.

Brakes Consult a brake specialist if the car has a tendency to pull to one side

when braking, if the brake pedal goes too close to the floor or has any other symptoms that seem unusual.

Check the hand brake as well â&#x20AC;&#x201C; park the car on a hill, put it in neutral and, if it does not hold firm on the handbrake, have it checked and adjusted.

Clean lights and windows Car windows should always be kept clean, as dirty glass can drastically reduce the driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vision when heading towards oncoming headlights or a low sun. Dirt increases the effect of glare.

Exterior dirt is easy to wash off, but it can be a constant battle to keep the inside of the glass free from the hazy film that builds up when a car is parked in the sun.

The â&#x20AC;&#x153;hazeâ&#x20AC;? can usually be wiped off with a chamois, methylated spirits or most domestic glass or general cleaners, but there is no magic formula to eliminate the problem altogether.

For good visbllity, keep the windscreen washer bottle topped up, and clean all lights and lenses.
