This week...

From the editor I have bags under my eyes bigger than the ones I brought my Christmas shopping home in – the result of broken sleep, interrupted by crying (some of which is only in my imagination); setting a feeding and napping routine; and an exhaustive play-sleep-repeat cycle.

No, I'm not hiding a newborn baby; I'm housebreaking a puppy.

That Christmas tree I optimistically assembled last week? Yeah, it’s toast.

The dangling baubles and glimmering lights proved irresistible for Wesley the mischievous Beagle. Can you blame him though? It’s important not to expect too much from a puppy as he learns the ropes of the big, wide world – something that is difficult to remember at 2am. Still, it’s easy to forgive his sweet, sweet face.

If you’re like me, you’ll be starting to think about how to set the table for Christmas Day. Picking a colour scheme is always a big decision: do you opt for traditional reds and greens, cool blues and silvers, or natural, earthy tones for a more pared-back Aussie feel? Well, this week we’ve taken the guesswork out of it, offering up tips to style your table and choose florals in Home (p41). The important thing is not to stress about it too much: your friends and family won’t mind if your home doesn’t look picture-perfect.

news Hospital to restrict access Ongoing concerns over the health and safety of patients and the local kangaroo population has prompted a decision to restrict public access at Morisset Hospital.

A working committee, made up of Lake Macquarie MP Greg Piper, Hunter New England Local Health District and representatives from the RSPCA, NSW Wildlife Council and NSW Parks and Wildlife, opted to lock the existing gates at the bridge on the main road into the site once appropriate infrastructure is in place.

Access will be restricted to emergency services, authorised visitors, and staff.

In May, Mr Piper called for appropriate signage to be installed in multiple languages after several incidents in which kangaroos had attacked tourists.

He said another major concern

surrounded the hospital’s status as an operational mental health facility.

“For many patients, the campus is their home and accessing areas of the site is part of their rehabilitation and treatment,” he said.

“Unfortunately, tourists have also approached mental health patients, which can impact their care and wellbeing.”

Hunter New England Health chief executive, Michael DiRienzo, said, despite clear signage that instructed tourists not to feed or interact with the kangaroos, many continued to do so.

Hunter Wildlife Rescue president, Audrey Koosmen, added the committee was formed on animal welfare grounds.

“Many [kangaroos] have had to be euthanised due to their illness from humans feeding them fruit

and other items,” she said.

“Also, there has been a huge increase of animals killed and injured by cars going onto the site, some days up to 780 people, 40 cars and at least 12 buses.

“So, we totally support the closing of the hospital [to the public] for the wellbeing of the kangaroos, as well as the patients and staff, and we thank Hunter New England Health for doing this.”

The existing gate will be locked

while custom-built ones are being constructed.

The new gates are expected to be installed by April 2019.

They will have swipe card access, as well as intercom and video cameras for staff.

Hunter New England Health has requested that tour operators and other visitor information websites remove any reference to the facility as a tourist attraction.

news Rocky road but plan to drive economy It has a small population base with a large road network of more than 720 kilometres, yet Dungog is the only local government area in NSW without state roads.

This is just one of many challenges facing the Upper Hunter town.

After being deemed unfit for the future by the Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal (IPART), Dungog Shire Council informed residents in February of its financial position and the need to apply for a Special Rate Variation (SRV).

Now, the council has formally notified IPART it intends to submit a proposal.

If approved, rates will rise 79% over a sevenyear period, starting in July 2019, while an additional 19% from the rate peg then puts the overall figure at 98%.

Dungog mayor Tracy Norman says the council acknowledges any rates increase will impact on some community members.

“Council’s response to this has been to review our Hardship Policy, with assistance from the NSW Office of Local Government,

so that we can sensitively and confidentially provide assistance to individuals who may experience difficulty paying their rates,” she says.

Cr Norman adds she is determined to create a positive and financially sustainable future for the community.

“The proposed Special Rate Variation is about fixing our roads and timber bridges to drive our local economy,” she says.

“The primary purpose of the SRV is to provide a safe and accessible road network for locals and tourists, and appropriately weightloaded bridges to get produce to market.

“Upgrades to our road and bridge network will also make our community a safer place by ensuring emergency vehicles have direct access routes, which seems even more relevant now that fire season is upon us.

“It is also important that school buses are able to travel safely on our bridges by the most direct route.”

Cr Norman says the council needs partners to achieve a financially sustainable future, and

believes the state government must contribute in the “heavy financial lift”.

She adds NSW Labor’s $10.5 million commitment to assist with the road network backlog, if elected in March, is “very welcome”.

“I am still in negotiations with the Nationals Local Member for the Upper Hunter [Michael Johnsen], but I’m confident that he has also heard our call,” she says.

“This is the support that we need.”

news Iconic site’s restoration a step closer to completion Newcastle council says it is about halfway through the restoration of Shepherds Hill Cottage.

The heritage-listed property has stood watch over the city from atop King Edward Park since the 1890s.

Current work includes a new roof and plumbing, repair of wooden windows and renewal of cladding, posts and beams, and removal of unauthorised extensions.

A council spokesperson stated most of the exterior work was finished and encouraged the public to provide feedback on its draft conservation management plan (CMP).

“The City of Newcastle is halfway through the restoration of Shepherds Hill Cottage, with most of the exterior work now done,” the spokesperson said.

“A revised conservation management plan for the whole defence site is on public exhibition, and restoration of the cottage should be finished mid-to-late 2019.

“A tenancy on the cottage can’t begin until the CMP is endorsed by the Office of Environment & Heritage, and the relevant Plan of Management, following recent legislative changes to the Crown Lands Act, is adopted by council.”

A CMP aims to identify the cultural significance of a place by investigating its history, fabric and context.

The level of cultural significance determines the type and degree of acceptable change, the levels of maintenance required, and the type of adaptive re-use that the place can undergo.

The military site served as an Schnitzels integralBreast command position up until the end of World War II. Marine Rescue NSW, the cottage’s former tenant, was forced to relocate after the April 2015 Superstorm wreaked significant damage to the roof and interiors.

news Parking petition

Suburb’s revamp

Cruises set sail

Hundreds of people have signed a petition that calls for more parking spaces around the Maitland courthouse precinct.

The petition urges Maitland council to work with Maitland MP Jenny Aitchison to resolve parking issues within the precinct by preserving at least 20 two-hour spaces near the courthouse, which will enable citizens to attend court and other business in the area.

In July 2017, Maitland council opted to conduct a review of parking within the city centre after The Levee and Stockland Green Hills developments were completed.

The Central Maitland Car Parking Study, which is expected to be finished by mid-2019, will look at access, location and distribution for both long and short-stay parking to help determine future car parking arrangements.

At its latest meeting, the council stated it would pass on the petition to the consultant undertaking the study to reflect citizen concerns.

A total of 388 people signed the parking petition.

A suite of major projects worth more than $7.5 million will aim to reinvigorate Windale.

Key projects include a new $6 million multipurpose facility, a $950,000 skate park, and $600,000 of environmental improvement works and art installations at the suburb’s retail centre.

According to Lake Macquarie mayor Kay Fraser, tenders are being sought for the design of the multipurpose facility.

Plans for the new skate park at Bahloo Reserve are also being developed, while the $600,000 project, which involves earthworks to improve waterflow and capacity, as well as erosion control and landscaping, is underway.

It is expected to be completed by the end of 2018.

“We’re planning to invest more than $7.5 million to build pride in the area and provide services and infrastructure that contribute to an even stronger, more vibrant community,” Cr Fraser said.

Construction has also started on a $58 million expansion of the Lake Macquarie Fair shopping centre.

Regular scheduled cruises are set to capitalise on a burgeoning demand to view Lake Macquarie from the water.

Nova Cruises, which has operated in Newcastle since 2006, will launch its Lake Mac cruises this weekend to coincide with the start of the peak summer season.

It will be the first time that regular scheduled cruises have been available in the region for more than four years. The cruises will range from 90-minute journeys, taking in the western end of the lake, to half-day expeditions travelling as far as Wangi Wangi.

Tours aboard the newly-renamed Lady MAC vessel, which has been refitted and modernised, will depart from the public wharf at Booragul.

Lake Macquarie council’s cultural services manager, Jacqui Hemsley, said the return of regular cruises would boost local tourism.

“These cruises give people another reason to visit Lake Macquarie, whether it’s for the day, weekend, or a longer stay,” she said.

The first Lady MAC cruise departs from Booragul on Friday.

news Phil rewarded for heroic actions Wallsend Village security supervisor Phil Colelough has been recognised for his quick thinking after a centre employee suffered a massive heart attack.

Mr Colelough swung into action on 29 September when Coles worker Kerry Woseen collapsed in the food court.

“She was on her side and you could see some of the blood coming from behind her ear, so I thought she might’ve hit her head,” he said.

“It wasn’t until I got closer and then you could see her lips had turned blue.”

After failing to find a pulse, Mr Colelough raced to grab a defibrillator off the wall, set it up, and started CPR until paramedics arrived a few minutes later.

He feared the worst as he watched Ms Woseen being wheeled out of the centre but received an incredible phone call later that night.

“I barely slept – to hear she survived and, obviously, as the days went on, she was awake and talking,” he said.

Heart attack survivor Kerry Woseen and Phil Colelough (centre) with Glenn Shiell, Wallsend state MP Sonia Hornery and paramedics Joel Mayhew, Byron Wall and Jay Rossetti.

“Tests came back with no brain damage, no damage to the heart – I’m not a religious sort of person, but it was definitely not her time [to go].

“She was meant to survive.”

Mr Colelough’s heroic actions were acknowledged on Monday when Wallsend state MP Sonia Hornery presented him with a Community Service Award.

He said it was an honour to receive the award but spoke of his admiration for paramedics.

Rotary Youth Exchange students Chien-Chien HO (Candice) and Linda Mietes decorate their Christmas tree.

‘Tis the season for giving Hamilton Uniting Church’s Trees & Art for Charity Carnival has taken on an international flavour this year.

Rotary Youth Exchange students Chien-Chien HO (Candice), from Taiwan, and Linda Mietes, from the

Netherlands, helped decorate one of the 15 Christmas trees on display at the church to raise money for various charities.

Candice and Linda’s tree will support ShelterBox Australia,

which provides emergency disaster relief supplies, such as familysized tents, cooking materials and bedding for people who are stranded in disaster zones.

The two students are visiting Australia for 12 months, hosted by the Rotary Club of Charlestown.

Their assistance was greatly appreciated by the Beaumont Street church, which raises more than $6,000 through the charity carnival each year.

Members of the public are encouraged to drop in and vote for their favourite Christmas tree until Saturday 22 December.

Viewing hours are 11am to 2pm, Monday to Friday, and 11am to 1pm Saturday.

Morning tea and a light lunch is served at Bill’s Place, inside the church, every Wednesday and Friday between 10am and 2.30pm, with the proceeds also going towards the fundraiser.

There are also original artworks by well-known local artists for sale.

Thousands raised for kids Caped crusaders rode, roved and posed for photos during the Bikers for Kids Newcastle Toy Run at the weekend.

The annual event, in its 41st year, brought Wickham Park alive with Christmas cheer on Sunday as about 10,000 bikes, food trucks, children’s activities and prizes boosted the festive season favourite.

The 2018 ‘Superheroes edition’ included visits from the likes of Batman, Spiderman, Black Widow, Wonder Woman and Captain America.

Representatives from the Hunter Heroes – a small group of volunteers that bring popular characters to life – were on deck to lend a hand for the special occasion.

The true heart of the event, a massive donation point for new and unwrapped toys for the Salvation Army’s Christmas Appeal, saw a truck filled to the brim with presents.

Organisers estimated the donated items to be worth more than $40,000.

Salvation Army Newcastle Corps Officer, Major Christine Martin, said the charity, and wider community, was blessed to benefit from the toy run.

“The Bikers for Kids [Newcastle] Toy Run helps us

meet the need at Christmas and, together, we can ensure little ones wake to treasures under the tree and food on the table,” Major Martin said.

Other highlights on the day included a giant tug ‘o’ war, live entertainment, and the auction of an official Supercars shirt, complete with 13 signatures.

Meanwhile, about 500 people donned Santa suits and dashed from one Newcastle landmark to another on Sunday to help raise funds for Variety – the Children’s Charity.

Participants tackled hot conditions during either a 10-kilometre Speedy Santa course, from Market St Lawn, at Queens Wharf, to Bar Beach and back; a 5km Surf to City, from Bar Beach to Market St Lawn; or a 2.5km stretch from Newcastle Beach skate park.

Variety’s head of regional development, Jason Bourke, said it was a fantastic event.

“Seeing 500 Santas run, particularly across the Anzac walk and through King Edward Park, was just spectacular,” he said.

“It was a terrific, festive atmosphere and the end result was about $10,000 raised for disadvantaged kids and those in need of support.”

news PFAS inquiry recommends compensation A parliamentary inquiry has recommended the federal government offer compensation to property owners and businesses affected by per-and-poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS).

The Inquiry into the management of PFAS contamination in and around Defence bases, which was delivered in parliament on Monday, stated priority for financial compensation, including the possibility of buybacks, should, in the first instance, be given to the most seriously affected residents.

These were listed as property owners who had suffered losses as a result of being unable to use their land for a specific purpose that it was intended for at the time of purchase; persons who invested land between the time it was known by the federal government to be contaminated and the time of that contamination being

made public; and businesses and other property owners in the most highly-contaminated areas.

The inquiry saw public hearings take place at Katherine, Williamtown, Oakey and Canberra from July through to mid-September.

Chair of the PFAS sub-committee, Liberal MP Andrew Laming, praised the PFAS-affected communities right across the country who made submissions to the inquiry.

“This is not an easy process,” he said in parliament.

“They gave evidence, and they have given evidence before.

“The hearings in Katherine, Williamtown and Oakey gave the sub-committee a very strong feeling about the intensity of the emotion that has built up over years as residents sought justice.

“These communities are hurt and they’re angered. Many people didn’t

come and front the committee when we did visit, and we wish we could have heard from them.

“But the delays and the inadequacies in finding justice have done enormous damage to those living there and their families.”

Other recommendations within the report included a nationwide ban on the use of PFAS-based firefighting foam, and a review of the government’s existing advice in relation to the human health effects of PFAS exposure.

It was the second parliamentary inquiry into the issue.

The first, in 2016, recommended the Commonwealth commit to voluntary property buybacks at Williamtown and Oakey.

However, the government stated in May 2018 that it would not consider a “land purchase program”.

Red hot start to summer Surf lifesavers rescued more than 200 swimmers across the state in a blistering first weekend of summer patrol.

The frontline volunteers carried out 232 rescues – the most recorded this season so far (since late September).

Most of these incidents occurred at beaches on the Central Coast, Sydney Northern Beaches and Sydney Branch areas.

A number of tragic accidents marred the weekend, including one involving a man who couldn’t be revived after getting into trouble while swimming at the Colo River in Northwest Sydney.

Always swim between the red and yellow patrol flags. Check the BeachSafe app or website to find your nearest patrolled beach.

What’s your favourite festive sound?

Christmas songs, festive social gatherings and the excited chatter of children. The pleasure of hearing and taking part in conversations are what many take for granted.

Do you laugh and nod at what you hope are the right times, rather than really hear what others are saying and engaging in the conversation.

It’s time to take action and be part of the conversation this festive season.

Kids let loose on new-look playground at Kahibah These happy faces belong to the official testers of a new-look playground at Kahibah Park.

community to enjoy, and was on track to spend $4 million on improving parks and playgrounds in 2018-19 as part of its capital works program.

Park Street Reserve Playground, Killingworth, is next in line, with works expected to start in February 2019.

Rugby stars on way to Pokolbin A number of Australia’s outstanding female rugby union players will visit Pokolbin for the Foxtel Touch 7s competition.

Pokolbin Rugby Union Club president, Jerome Scarborough, said the tournament was a highlight on the club’s calendar and he expected a big crowd to attend the season-ending event.

“We have Australia’s star women rugby 7s players in Yasmin Meakes, Lauren Brown, Alicia

Quirk, Charlotte Caslick, Dom du Toit and Demi Hayes making an appearance at the tournament,” he said.

“It’s a great coup for the Pokolbin Reds in attracting such experienced players, who will be signing autographs and chatting about their experience in playing at the highest level of Women’s Rugby Sevens.”

The Foxtel Touch 7s will be played at St Philip’s Christian College, Nulkaba, between 5.30pm and 7.30pm on Friday 7 December.

The tournament is a mixed teams’ event and the round is the last in the competition before the winners are announced on the evening.

Scarborough adds the six Australian players will not be playing in the competition as they will have just returned from playing in the Dubai 7s.

“The girls have kindly agreed to come to our tournament as a promotion for the Pokolbin club while visiting the Hunter Valley,” he said.

“We’re hoping their attendance will help attract a big crowd and create interest in those young boys and girls who would like to play rugby for Pokolbin.”

Quirk (24 caps) and Caslick (23 caps) are two of the better-known Australian women 7s players who have flown back from Dubai for the event.

WSL to hit Redhead One of Lake Macquarie’s most spectacular stretches of coast will be showcased to a national and international audience when the city hosts its first ever World Surf League event early next year.

The Lake Mac City Pro Junior is set to move from Merewether to Redhead Beach for the event from 9 to 10 February 2019.

Surfest organiser Warren Smith said the Lake Mac City Pro Junior was the only Australasian WSL Pro Junior event to offer equal prizemoney for male and female competitors.

“It’s a JQS1000 rated event, meaning there is no higher ranked junior event on the WSL circuit,” he said.

“And, that means we will attract some of the world’s best surfers aged 18 and under.

“Where they go, the surfing world’s attention follows, so this truly will put Lake Macquarie on the map for our sport.”

Destination NSW has again thrown its support behind Surfest 2019, while Lake Macquarie council will host a range of free activities, including markets and skateboard workshops, during the two-day junior event.

Star-studded line-up for Lake Mac Carols

Damien Leith and Thirsty Merc will perform live at Lake Mac Carols.

Australian Idol winner Damien Leith and ARIAnominated band Thirsty Merc will headline the 2018 Lake Mac Carols at Speers Point Park.

Lake Macquarie council’s manager cultural services, Jacqui Hemsley, said landing these artists was quite a coup for what was widely hailed as the city’s biggest Christmas event.

“Damien is an amazing vocal talent and has vast experience with live performance,” she said.

“He won Australian Idol in 2006, has released an EP of Christmas carols and has performed at Carols in the Domain.”

Thirsty Merc has been an Aussie household name in rock music for more than a decade, with the band nominated for multiple APRA and ARIA awards.

This year’s carols, planned for Sunday 9 December, will also feature an afternoon screening of the family festive movie, Christmas All Over Again.

There will be plenty of live entertainment into the night, an appearance by Santa, and a

Choirboys take Christmas The Christmas season is filled with carols – you can’t escape them.

This year, rock will save the day as multi-platinum rockers Choirboys put their own spin on traditional Christmas songs in a semi-acoustic mode in a onetime performance at Lizotte’s on Thursday 13 December.

Imagine hearing favourites like Jingle Bells, Silent Night, Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus, You’re All I Want for Christmas, Happy Christmas (War is Over), Last Christmas and more, reimagined in the Choirboys’ signature gritty rock format.

Combine it with their classic hits and you’re in for one hell of a rocking good night.

Forty years ago, on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, Choirboys was born.

Having signed its first recording deal with Alberts, the band quickly became a fixture in Australian culture, after penning one of the country’s unofficial anthems, Run to Paradise.

The boys epitomise the essence of Australian pub culture and have secured their place in music history.

Through this and other hits such as Boys Will Be Boys, Struggle Town and Never Gonna Die, Choirboys and their music have found their way into our hearts, ears and minds.

Tickets to next Thursday’s show are available online at lizottes.com.au

Library space up for grabs Hanging space in some of Lake Macquarie’s busiest libraries is up for grabs.

The council is calling for applications from artists and art collectives to exhibit their works as part of an initiative to celebrate art and encourage new projects.

The Launchpad program provides free exhibition space at four libraries: Belmont, Toronto, Charlestown and Swansea, which

have a combined annual visitation of more than 425,000 people.

Successful Launchpad applicants would have their work promoted and supported through the council’s communication and social media channels.

Exhibitions could last up to 12 weeks.

Visit lakemac.com.au/ launchpad to apply before 12 December.

Amateur Lake Macquarie paleontologist Michael Dawson with a woolly rhino skull.

Exhibit exposes imposters They are lean, mean, prehistoric killing machines – just don’t call them dinosaurs.

Creatures such as the giant crocodilian predator deinosuchus are often mistaken for dinosaurs, but their fossilised remains tell a different story.

Hunter locals can dig deeper on the topic at SEEN@Swansea, where a fascinating exhibition, aptly named Dinosaur Imposters,

is on display from this Saturday 8 December until Sunday 3 February 2019.

The exhibition will feature more than 200 items, from tiny trilobite fossils to full-size partial casts of a woolly rhino, deinosuchus and great white shark ancestor megalodon.

Amateur Lake Macquarie paleontologist Michael Dawson, who contributed items to the

exhibition, said the past five years had seen a resurgence of interest in prehistoric fauna.

“Almost every kid now knows dinosaurs; they can name just about all of them,” Mr Dawson said.

“I do talks in schools and I’m frequently being corrected by the children I speak to.”

Mr Dawson said, while creatures like deinosuchus – an apex predator that grew to more than 10 metres in length – resembled dinosaurs, they had some important differences.

“This exhibition is designed to shine a light on those differences, and demonstrate how each of these creatures was just as fascinating in its own way as a T-rex or stegosaurus.”

To coincide with the exhibition, Lake Mac Libraries will host a range of Dinosaur Impostersthemed activities and storytime sessions throughout the school holidays.

Go to library.lakemac.com.au/ events for more information.

Simple, understated style This Christmas, warm, earthy tones, handcrafted materials and native florals take centre stage for a laidback vibe. Here to show you how to style your table for the big day are two experts in the biz.

On setting your table for breakfast, lunch or dinner, Stage One Interiors stylist, Louise Hatcher, says: Most tables become overloaded once food and guests are in place, so, in beautiful Australian style, I like to keep it relaxed and inviting.

The buffet is always set on a separate space and decorations are kept minimal.

The last thing you want is for your guests to worry about ruining the table setting or not having enough space to place their champagne!

I love to use my everyday best: linen, ceramics, and cut glass.

Then, I always add something handmade and a stunning bunch of natives.

On choosing your flower arrangements, The Little Garden florist, Sam Watt, says: Native flowers are always a beautiful feature in your home for Christmas and are very on-trend.

Simple and whimsical floral pieces are always a favourite of mine.

Collecting botanical pieces from your very own garden can be a great place to start.

The beautiful herb rosemary was used in the arrangement featured in this cover story.

Its gorgeous aroma will fragrance your home and always reminds me of Christmas.

Pesky summer pests Summer is here! After a beautiful mild spring, we sure felt it last Sunday.

It is now time to water pots daily; indeed, on a hot, windy day, give them a second drink as evening comes to aid their recovery.

Gardeners with spare time: there is plenty of work to do. Summer pests are out with a vengeance, the worst of these being mealy bug, which presents as sticky cotton wool and can be hard to beat.

Mealy hides deep down in leaf folds or where stems join branches.

The best solution for this pest is Malathon and white oil but it will take several sprays to eliminate this pest.

Always, at this time of year, I receive many enquiries about citrus stink bugs.

These brightly coloured beetles do a fair amount of damage – their hard shells protect them.

Again, use Malathon and white oil every 10 days to catch their

IN THE GARDEN JUDY SHARPE

hatching cycle, and please be careful of the spray they exude; it can burn, especially your eyes.

I am amazed at the amount of fruit, riddled with fruit fly, coming into the nursery for diagnosis.

What can the home gardener do to protect their stone fruit and tomatoes?

Fruit fly traps work. Paint the tomato stake with a mix of Malathon and Vegemite; no specific ratio, just mix and paint.

Any fruit that falls on the ground should be bagged and dumped. If left, the fruit fly will end up in the soil and prolificate next year.

It is early for lawn grubs, but many gardeners begin to treat the lawn early, especially as black beetle and crickets start to attack.

PICK OF THE WEEK Arbitrage

The Silence Of The Lambs

Arbitrage

Saturday, SBS, 10.30pm, M (2012) Richard Gere is in careerbest form in this thriller as a morally bankrupt moneyman desperate to cover up some serious wrongdoing. Susan Sarandon plays his loyal wife and Brit Marling his heir-apparent daughter, both of whom are oblivious to the massive frauds the hedge fund manager has committed. They are also in the dark about the affair he is conducting with a femme fatale (Laetetia Casta). But after one cover-up too many, things begin to unravel.

Friday

Spectre

The Silence Of The Lambs

Sunday, GEM, 9pm, MA15+ (1991) Jodie Foster is superb as rookie FBI agent Clarice Starling, who enlists the help of jailed psychiatrist, sociopath and mass murderer Hannibal Lecter (Anthony Hopkins) to locate a missing woman and save her from a twisted killer. The winner of five Oscars, including Best Picture, director Jonathan Demme’s disturbing serial killer thriller remains the benchmark of the genre. The shock value and bold dramatics cast an incredibly entertaining spell.

Monday, NBN, 9pm, M (2015) Daniel Craig’s rebooted Bond stays close to the globetrotting, action-driven spectacle of earlier entries in Spectre, although it remains reliant on the longestablished 007 formula.

The flick opens with Bond in Mexico City on a mission to kill an Italian terrorist, which leads to a fast and furious helicopter scrum. Bond then discovers a tentacled criminal organisation called SPECTRE and the action ups the ante.

2019 is Nicholas’ year to excel and to do so, he must ensure he is organised and takes responsibility for his career. The year ahead will be filled with passion, so his relationships will be based more on this than on the intellectual. It is time for Nicholas to make solid foundations in his life, which will allow personal relationships to last, grow and develop. His career will be favourably influenced by a Virgo and he will have a cosmic tie to Leo.

Dive deep undercover

Behind every great man

Adrenalin-fuelled and explosive, Bulletproof follows two undercover cops, Bishop (Noel Clarke) and Pike (Ashley Walters) as they chase down hardened criminals in London’s East End. On the surface, Bishop and Pike have a lot in common despite very different backgrounds: they’re cool, smart, unapologetically street-wise and tough, and they always have each other’s backs. Bonded by their moral code, they are two sides of the same coin and, using their own special brand of policing, they cause chaos, leaving a trail of destruction wherever they go. Disobeying orders and taking matters into their own hands, they get results, but at what cost?

The series is set for release on 19 December.

Behind every great man is an even greater woman.

Joan Castleman (Glenn Close) has spent 40 years sacrificing her own talent, dreams and ambition to support her charismatic, philandering husband Joe (Jonathan Pryce) and his brilliant literary career.

Their faithful pact reaches breaking point on the eve of his being awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature.

The Wife is an emotional journey of selfdiscovery and liberation.

VILLAGE I’m constantly in awe of our community commitment, whether it be groups or individuals, to ensure our vulnerable have a dignified voice. I treasured the opportunity to be part of Sleep Out for Soul and The Big Freeze - Fight MND. It is both humbling and empowering to be part of such community spirit and determination.

My favourite things RADIO I unearthed incredible passion hosting and producing radio programs, interacting with our community with sports commentary and interviewing luminaries such as Rosie Batty (Australian of the Year); Manuel Whitford (Friends with Dignity / Australian Charity 2018); rock greats such as Grant Walmsley; and sporting heroes Andre Hartgartner and Tae Saloumidis, to name a few.

Martine Paterson

LAKE MACQUARIE CITIZEN OF THE YEAR 2018 NOMINEE

A busy mum with, on the last count, five different school drop-offs, Martine and her cartoonist husband, Brett, love bringing up their kiddies in the area, with a real focus on beach life. You won’t remember Martine as Olympic swimming potential, and she’s now the forgotten face of Jeanswest from the 1980s.

She hung up the goggles and catwalk, determined to “get a proper job”, finding early the area of vocational rehabilitation, specialising in injury management for more than 25 years now. Martine began writing a Canberra City News column in the 1990s – a Dr Phil piece before Dr Phil was Dr Phil. Some just might recall her as co-founder of Dragons Abreast, as well as a media representative for Breast Cancer Network Australia after an unfortunate brush with the disease at just 24 years old. More than likely you know Martine as a presenter on local radio FM97.3, sports commentator, a passionate community advocate, and also recognise her voice from various commercials.

CONNECTING I feel strongly my professional role in mental health and public profile as a radio host demands that I require of community leaders to listen, consider, collaborate and act. I relish my role in the Polly Waffle program, providing a forum for working on solutions, irrespective of political party leaning.

STORIES Everyone has a story. Not everyone believes this, so I delight in finding a story that has been lost, forgotten or discarded and empowering the owner to build or even re-build as a determined author. My favourite stories are often those told after the interview, when the mic is off.

CREATIVITY My rockin’ Dad inspired exploration of all things music, arts, sports, dance and culture all over our fantastic planet. My mission is to pass this magic to my own kiddies, acknowledging the amazing local talent and muse in our amazing region. I revel in being able to do this in my radio programs.
