A VERY DIFFERENT KIND OF EASTER

As Easter approaches, four-year-old Thomas Smyth has been busy psyching up his female bunny rabbit, Percy, for the big day. With social distancing and self-isolation in force for the first time in Australia’s history, kids like Thomas are finding solace in their pets and family when it comes to celebrating major holiday events that traditionally mean get-togethers with family and friends. Dubbo Photo News wishes all our readers a safe and happy Easter and is urging everyone to reach out to family and friends, particularly elderly or infirm relatives, to keep those vital social connections alive and well – making sure to follow the current rules on social distancing. Thomas’ mum Rachel says their family will use Facetime to catch up digitally and ensure the family stays in touch. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/EMY LOU

YOU ARE NOT WELCOME Visitors to the region warned ahead of Easter weekend

By LYDIA PEDRANA

WITH the Easter weekend upon us, Australian’s have been warned to stay away from regional and remote NSW. Minister for Regional NSW John Barilaro (pictured) stressed the message on Tuesday warning that police will be out in force, fining people up to $11,000 and potential jail time if they are caught breaking the coronavirus laws. “You are not welcome,” Mr Barilaro said during a press conference. “This weekend is not the weekend to visit.” Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) and Royal Flying Doctors Service South Eastern (RFDSSE) division

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY THE search is on for 35 healthy individuals 18 or over, to take the place of dozens of regular donors unable to currently give up an hour of their day to change – even save – someone’s life by giving blood. Are you one of them? “We are currently seeing approximately 900 cancellations per day across Australia,” Australian Red Cross Lifeblood Spokesperson Nicky Breen said. “While there could be a number of reasons for this, we know people are changing their routines,” she said, referring to COVID-19 restrictions. Starting Monday, April 15, Lifeblood Dubbo needs 35 local donors to support local health needs. One third of blood donations helps treat people with cancer and every donation can help safe three lives. “There is no substitute for blood and we can’t stockpile it, so it’s vitally important people keep donating, and if they have an appointment, and are feeling well, to please keep it. “Blood is needed every day for accidents, emergency surgery, new mums and cancer patients,” Ms Breen said. The Lifeblood Dubbo donor centre is safe to visit. Their strict screening process means only

people who are well are inside. “Donor centres have always been highly regulated spaces – but we have implemented further measures to help protect our donors and our teams, including increased disinfecting, additional hand sanitiser, restricting non-donating visitors to our centres, and implementing social distancing wherever possible. In some centres, we’ve rearranged the furniture to make this possible,” Ms Breen said. “We have a dedicated group of experts who have been closely monitoring developments and giving advice. We have introduced new blood donation rules, including a 28-day wait period for anyone returning from overseas, or anyone who has come into contact with a confirmed case of coronavirus.” There is no evidence globally, of coronavirus ever being transfusion transmissible. The only age group of people not encouraged to give at this time are donors 70 years and over. “We strongly encourage people who have been advised by Government to stay at home and self-isolate for their own protection to follow this advice. This applies to people aged 70 and over, or other specified age groups with chronic medical conditions. For more information call 13 14 95 or visit donateblood.com.au.

COVID-19 rules: Avoid running in to trouble when you exercise COUNCIL WATCH By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY THERE are 16 reasons why you can leave home at the moment and exercise is one of them, under the NSW Government’s Public Health (COVID-19 Restrictions on Gathering and Movement) Order 2020. That the maximum number of people who can gather is two. “It is reasonable that people can still exercise in open spaces, footpaths, etc., while adher-ing to the social gathering rules, maintaining strict social distancing, and practicing good hygiene,” DRC spokesperson for COVID-19 Andrew Parsons said. “DRC is not issuing fines or directions under this Order, however, it must be noted, the NSW Government Order is enforceable by police and carries penalties if an individual fails to comply with a direction,” Mr

Parsons said. The penalties are six months’ imprisonment or a fine of up to $11,000, or both, plus a fur-ther $5500 fine each day the offence continues. Corporations that fail to comply with a di-rection are liable to a fine of $55,000 and $27,500 each day the offence continues. According to Orana Mid Western Police District inspector Dan Skelly, one person from Nar-romine and one from Tomingley have received infringements for the not complying with self-isolation regulations, but on the whole, people are adhering to the rules. “Police have interacted with a number of individuals seen not complying, however, after being spoken to, they do. We are taking the approach that issuing fines is a last resort, to (be used on) those people that are belligerent and not willing to comply,” Inspector Skelly said. Social distancing rules are not pre-

venting police from doing their job. “In doing so of course we will have to modify the way we do things when we interact with the public, so, taking sensible precautions such as the use of gloves, face masks, social dis-tancing, etc., according to the situation at hand. However, if neces-

sary we are prepared to go handson should the situation require,” he said. “This is not a time when criminals can relax, nor is it a time where the community should think the police will be relaxing enforcing the law. We will continue to keep the community safe by doing our job.” People doing the wrong thing cannot expect to just get a caution or warning. Instead, they can expect to “have the full force of the law brought against them immediately. This may include being arrested, charged, and put before the court. “We appeal to the community to stay at home unless they need to leave for the reasons in accordance with the current public health regulation,” Inspector Skelly said. Orana Mid Western Police are conducting patrols of shopping centres, parks, and other pub-lic areas, checking compliance and interacting with people as required.

Ibuprofen and COVID-19 confusion By LYDIA PEDRANA THERE has been confusion over whether to use ibuprofen to treat COVID-19 symptoms after the World Health Organisation backflipped on its warning to avoid it. Advice against the anti-inflammatory drugs came after the French Health Minister Olivier Veran flagged a recent study in The Lancet medical journal which hypothesised that ibuprofen could worsen COVID-19 infections. WHO then retracted its advice, stating “based on currently available information, WHO does not recommend against the use of ibuprofen.” According to NPS MedicineWise, paracetamol is the firstchoice medicine to reduce fever and while ibuprofen can also be effective, it is not recommended for people with asthma, who are pregnant, have heart, kidney or liver

disease, or who have or have had stomach ulcers or bleeding. Local pharmacist Tim Koerstz (pictured) said it has long been known that ibuprofen can cause issues for those with underlying illnesses. “If you’ve got things like blood pressure and heart conditions or even people with asthma, ibuprofen can exacerbate those symptoms,” he told Dubbo Photo News. “But that’s nothing new, we’ve always known that it’s not ideal in those situations and that’s why people should speak to their pharmacist and let them know what other medications and what conditions they have so they can be warned if it’s not ideal.” Mr Koerstz said he would generally recommend paracetamol for those who have “comorbidities that ibuprofen

would upset.” NPS MedicineWise medical adviser and general practitioner Dr Jill Thistlethwaite said common sense should always apply when it comes to medicine, but that it’s critical during a pandemic. “Remember that the dose you need of a medicine may be different for different ages, so it is important to follow the instructions on the packaging or from your health professional,” said Dr Thistlethwaite. “Always check the active ingredient of your medicines so that you don’t take too much paracetamol, ibuprofen or some other medicine over 24 hours. “It is also important to remember that a fever is a normal response of the body to many illnesses and that a mild fever may help get rid of

an infection, therefore medicines are not always needed.” Mr Koerstz also noted that over-the-counter medications including paracetamol and ibuprofen are still in short supply. As such, his pharmacy is following the NSW Health Department’s recommendation that customers be limited to one unit per person after media coverage revealed people were panic buying. “Ideally, we don’t want people stockpiling those sorts of medications around the house,” Mr Koerstz said. “That’s what it comes down to, and also, because they are in short supply, we are aiming to try and spread it around evenly.” If you have questions about medicines and how to use them, seek advice from your doctor or pharmacist or call Medicines Line on 1300 633 424.

Red Hot Summer Tour will return in 2021 By LYDIA PEDRANA LAZY River Estate has confirmed the Red Hot Summer Tour will definitely return to Dubbo next year. Originally scheduled for last weekend, organisers were last month forced to cancel the event after the government restrictions around gatherings were introduced. While the venue and promoters are stilling working to lock in a date, it is likely to fall early in the year. “We have been assured the Red Hot Summer Tour in Dubbo will be even bigger and better next year,” Pam Scott from Lazy River told Dubbo Photo News.

FUEL PRICES

Dubbo Triathlon Club scores $28,455 in funding

Fuel price logic running on empty

Wayne Gilbert says Dubbo motorists are being charged too much by the big fuel companies. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/EMY LOU

By JOHN RYAN WAYNE Gilbert has spent weeks lobbying against what he says are exorbitant fuel prices being charged in Dubbo. He’s crunched the numbers and says the price at the Sydney wholesalers bears little relation to what people out west are being forced to pay. “It’s basically every $10 you spend you hand over $4 to the petrol company... If you fill up a tank of juice and it costs you $100, you’re effectively giving them $40 of your money for nothing,” Mr Gilbert told Dubbo Photo News. He says the big corporate service stations making those windfall profits from 100 customers each day means a $4000 daily profit, or $28,000 each week. Mr Gilbert operates a Bobcat and Tipper and said it’s infuriating when he runs a small business on slim margins and one of his major overheads is diesel, to think the fuel majors are making far more than him from his own turnover, yet doing none of the

work and taking none of the risks. He’s calling for state MP Dugald Saunders to wage a public campaign against what he describes as the blatant rip-offs that are happening right throughout the Dubbo electorate. “It costs six cents per litre to freight fuel to Dubbo and they should allow two cents profit so it’s eight cents; so at 84 cents for the companies to get unleaded out to Dubbo we should be paying roughly about 92 cents a litre. Diesel costs them about $1.04 here and you can see the signs advertising it today for $1.41, so there’s 40 cents profit straight up,” Mr Gilbert said. “We try and give the customer the best price we can for the job that we do, and I go and put $100 worth of diesel in my truck and it only half fills the tank – it’s ridiculous. The price gouging is just ridiculous and if our local member doesn’t have the fortitude to stand up for the people that put him in that job, then he needs to step aside and let someone else do it.” Mr Gilbert says thousands of

vehicles drive through Dubbo on a weekly basis as well as the tens of thousands of families, businesspeople and individuals who fill up their tanks on a regular basis. He believes that massive percentage of cash put through the pumps that goes straight overseas as windfall profits should be redirected back into supporting the local economy, and believes state and federal governments should work to prevent such a monumental transfer of wealth from Dubbo to multinational corporations that pay little to no tax, yet are able to operate in Australia thanks to infrastructure paid for by taxpayers like himself. “We’ve just been through a three-year drought, we’ve had the fires and now we’ve been hit by the COVID-19 virus, and now we have this price-gouging. They’re just ripping people’s money out of their pockets just for their own greed, that’s all it is.” For his part, Dubbo MP Dugald Saunders says he’s an advocate for the cheapest possible fuel prices right across his electorate.

“I am pleased to see the ACCC has warned it will name and shame businesses that don’t pass on falling fuel prices to consumers, including retailers in areas like ours,” Mr Saunders said. “It is worth noting that in some cases fuel businesses have been through the most difficult time on record over the past few years due to drought, with high costs and barely any customers – it’s only now thanks to some rain and the Ag sector kicking into gear that some local businesses have some certainty again. “But that being said, there is a real need to support the entire community at this extremely challenging time, and I am calling on all our fuel retailers to do as much as they can to lower their prices as quickly as possible,” he said. Mr Saunders also pointed to the drop-off in the number of fuel customers because the majority of residents are driving far less than normal. “But now is not the time to gouge our communities on fuel prices.”

THE Dubbo Triathlon club will be able to host a broader range of events in the future, thanks to $28,455 from the NSW Government to help build more steps with hand-rails into the Macquarie River for the swim legs during competitions. Member for the Dubbo Electorate Dugald Saunders said the grant is from the Stronger Country Communities Fund, and will provide a great boost for the club. “The Dubbo Triathlon Club has been noticeably growing in participation and community involvement over recent years, and this is a really practical way I can support the members into the future.” “The grant will go towards building more concrete steps with hand-rails along the riverbank at various distances to allow for a greater range of swim-legs and races, and although the club can’t be active right now, it will make a big difference in the future and give members something to look forward to,” Mr Saunders said. President of the Dubbo Triathlon Club Jason Dearmer said the club is very grateful to receive the money. “We’re really excited as a club to be receiving this grant from the State Government, and it’s going to give us a lot more opportunities during our future racing seasons to hold different events, and really get a lot of good community engagement in the sport of triathlon.” Mr Dearmer said the steps will be a fantastic asset for the club, but will also benefit the community. ‘The steps will be available for use by all people from Dubbo and surrounds to be able to utilise the fantastic resources of the river, and just make it a bit safer to use as well.” The $400 million Stronger Country Communities Fund is part of the NSW Government’s $1.7 billion Regional Growth Fund, which is being invested in local programs and infrastructure that improve the lives of people living in regional NSW.

IT’S been a distracting few weeks for school students across the region as they’ve adjusted to new social distancing norms and many have transitioned to home schooling for the first time in their lives. Dubbo College Senior Campus has adapted class rooms with zoom video conferencing. “The real power of learning comes from connection and the relationship between students and their teachers. This is why zoom video conferencing has been a crucial strategy in the Senior Campus’ transition to online learning.” Dubbo College Senior Campus principal Marisha Blanco told Dubbo Photo News. “It is also vital, that students, more than ever, receive explicit teaching. As a school, we have been using technology such as Screencastify to pre-record the teaching of course content for students to access from home. “The majority of our courses already utilise Google Classrooms, so we were able to continue utilising this technology to facilitate online teaching and learning,” she said. Students who don’t have a laptop have been able to borrow one from the school.

“We are pleased to be able to offer students with no, or poor internet connection, internet dongles as soon as they are made available from the Department of Education. Feedback received thus far, is that our families are appreciating the continuance of regular contact made by their teachers as well as our support staff,” Mrs Blanco said.

YOUR STARS ARIES: With your boss away for one reason or another, you’ll find yourself taking over for them, much to your surprise. Trust your instincts and your leadership skills will shine. TAURUS: With an important business meeting coming up, you may worry about your ability to communicate properly. Don’t fret; you’ll surpass your own expectations. GEMINI: You may go back to school or new learning with the goal of making a career change. Your patience and hard work will provide you with an opportunity to get out of a precarious financial situation. CANCER: Generally, you’re not the type to hesitate before making a big decision. This time, however, you extensively deliberate the pros and cons first. What’s more, new information will come to light at the last minute. LEO: While working, you’ll deal with emergencies and unsatisfied cus-

tomers. Your smile (virtual or personally) will diffuse a tense situation and help you iron out one or more difficulties. VIRGO: One way or another you’re sure to accomplish a great feat this week. You’ll be applauded for your efforts and held in great esteem. You may also save someone from a catastrophe. LIBRA: If you have young children, they may be more excitable than usual. In order to restore peace at home, take the time to establish or clarify the house rules. SCORPIO: You can no longer keep your opinions to yourself and will express out loud what others are only thinking. You may have to get used to a new phone or other device that’s much more complex than your old one.

SAGITTARIUS: Take the time to look over your bills and receipts. You may catch an error and recuperate a considerable amount of money. CAPRICORN: Patience probably won’t be your greatest virtue in the days to come. Any money worries you have now will go away in time. Solutions will present themselves when you let bygones be bygones. AQUARIUS: You’ll be hit by a wave of exhaustion this week and consequently need more rest than usual. Also, you’ll have a revelation that helps you approach your professional goals with newfound determination. PISCES: You’ll be in charge of an important group of people. However, the stress of handling everything on your own is exhausting and you’ll need to get some rest before the week is over. The luckiest signs this week: Aries, Taurus and Pisces.

AS aged care facilities in Dubbo have locked down to outside visitors in a bid to protect residents from the spread of COVID19, the Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety chair GT Pagone QC, has highlighted how the aged in our community are amongst the most vulnerable. She says they are “affected both by the potential to be infected with the virus as well as by the unintended consequence of the otherwise understanda-

ble and reasonable steps which have been taken to ensure for their safety.” “We have heard that an inability to receive visitors, or a lessening of time which visitors may attend to visit, can have impacts upon the supplementary care family visitors frequently provide for such basic things as feeding and toileting. The reduction of such visits from family needs to be supplemented by additional measures to ensure a healthy and quality life,” he

said. The Commissioners have suspended all hearings, workshops and group consultations of the Royal Commission for the time being, subject to ongoing review. Meaningful engagement with the aged care sector during the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is not possible and there’s an extended deadline for submissions to the Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety by two months to 30 June 2020.

ESSENTIAL SERVICE

Allied health professionals say business as usual By JOHN RYAN DR Garth Pywell has seen a marked decline in patients visiting his Awakening Health, holistic chiropractic clinic since the Coronavirus pandemic fears hit home to locals. “At this point in time we’ve seen pretty much a drop-off of somewhere between the 60 and 80 per cent mark,” Dr Pywell said. “Most of that, I think, is people following the social distancing guidelines which is a good thing but I think a lot of people are also quite paranoid about coming in to a space where there might be a lot of other people as well, not realising that we are taking the measures that we need to do.” He said those fears are unfounded as long as the proper processes are put in place to keep people at safe distances from each other. “We’re screening patients before they come in and as they come in, we’re doing what we always do in relation to hygiene so thankfully in our case we haven’t had to change anything there,” he said. “We always make sure that the rooms are sanitised, we always make sure that our personal hygiene is where it should be as well, so really there’s no change in policy that’s really been needed for us at this point. “I think a lot of people are just afraid of what’s going on in the environment at this point in time.” Dr Pywell said many of Awakening’s clients, much the same as those at any medical or allied health practise, are elderly or have complex underlying health problems which make them far more at risk if they catch COVID-19. He believes that vulnerability can be stressful and traumatic for people at greater risk, without having to worry about any added complications of being in pain because they’re too worried to visit their health practitioners. “Definitely – if people are concerned about visiting the clinic to get treatment they can just give me a call, I’m always available and most face to face practitioners in Dubbo,

‘physios’, ‘chiros’, ‘osteos’, we’re all here to help in this time,” Dr Pywell said. “I really see it as an amazing opportunity for us to really take more pressure off the medical system so they can focus on the pandemic at the moment. We have an opportunity to deal with people who are in that muscular-skeletal-physical pain as well as that mental and emotional stuff to take the strain off doctors.

“We’re lucky here in town, we work with quite a few of the GPs and they recognise what our role is,” he said. “If there’s any sort of fear or anxiety about coming in to any clinic situation, our local practitioners are here to talk to them about those concerns and hopefully allay them as best we can and keep observing the social distancing and come to see us if you feel you need it, we are an essential service.”

Six Box Elders trees to make way for Furney Street water main TO facilitate the replacement of a cast iron water main in Furney Street, Dubbo, six Box Elder (Acer negundo) trees will be removed. “In lieu of the Box Elder trees, eleven Acer negundo ‘Sensation’ trees will be planted along the northern side of the footpath in Furney Street. These are a new hardier variety of the Box Elder that have been recommended to suit the local environment. They can tolerate harsh and varying climatic conditions including extended dry weather periods to high rainfall events,” Dubbo Regional Council’s liveability architect Ian McAlister said. “The Acer negundo ‘Sensation’ species is quite versatile and can cope in a wide range of soil pH levels. They have a broad canopy, which provides more shade for the road surface. This contributes to lowering the temperature of the road pavement, increasing its useful life expectancy. A broad canopy also provides the benefit of catching more rainfall than a narrower canopy, reducing the loading on the storm water system,” Mr McAlister said. “Eleven Malus ioensis ‘Plena/ Crab Apple’ trees are to be replanted on the southern side of the footpath as they grow to a lower height and will not conflict with existing overhead power lines, increasing the tree population and improving the aesthetic appeal of the street.” Pipework is expected to commence April 13, 2020. Residents of Furney Street have been notified via letter drop of the disruption to localised traffic to facilitate the work.

Creative play never more important

In the imperial system, what does 16 ounces equal?

DUBBO Printing Works is providing respite for families across the region thanks to the business’s philosophy of challenging families and trying to bring generations together. Manager Janet Williams said the store has spent years working out products they can stock which show kids and families the importance of intelligent playtime. Now more than ever, during Australia’s current semi-lockdown, she said people have to make the most of precious time interacting and learning new things. “For some time we’ve specialised in a range of toys which have a creative base, so activity toys which encourage children to play creatively ranging from books through puzzles and craft packs,” Mrs Williams said. “There’s quite a diverse range within that including wooden toys for the littlies which encourage independent play, and play that isn’t on an iPad so they make their own stories.” She said many parents and grandparents are keen to find interactive, creative old-school playtime options which will boost learning by doing and thinking. “Oh yes, especially grandmas, many in the older generation can see the value in that type of play, that type of toy and we’ve had a very good response for them because they can’t find them at other places.” Mrs Williams believes the next weeks or months of social distanc-

ing will demonstrate the vital importance of showing kids how to engage their creative sides to play alone. “I’ve always believed that the ability to play is an integral part of a child’s development because it teaches them independence and resilience and it teaches them to use their initiative in what they do, they’re not just copying a story they see on TV or on an electronic device using characters that have already been created be somebody else,” she said. “It helps them to develop their own ability to imagine and see possibilities in things and I think that’s a very important part of them maturing and growing into

clever and creative people.” She said this lock-down is unprecedented for Australia, a nation where all sorts of freedoms have always been taken so for granted for generations. Now they’ve all just been stripped away from us, she believes it’s critically important for people’s mental health that they think, you know what, let’s use this time to try and develop as people and let’s at least make something good happen out of this. “It’s such a great way for the kids to develop,” she said. “It’s such a busy world that we’re in and we’re so used to being busy and having so much choice that we can forget sometimes about how

Double-edged sword for official messaging during the Coronacrisis The government dumped $750 into millions of social security accounts last week in a bid to get people spending cash to circulate in the community and help save businesses and jobs across the nation. Yet at the same time the government is urging people not to leave their homes, and not to travel unnecessarily. On April 3, it poured in Dubbo but while the rain normally sees

a drop-off in CBD patronage, last Friday the main street was as packed as the traditional late shopping rush on the Thursday before Easter.

important relationships are and developing those relationships, “I think it’s a time to step back in families and for parents to look at ways they can interact with their children and play is a big part of that because it’s so much fun – so why not take the time to have some fun in amongst a time that’s stressful enough.” She says going back to some of the old games and toys, things that a family can play together which don’t have an age limit on them, can be tailored toward littlies as well as older people. “They can still challenge people and they can still have fun.”

IN BRIEF

Cobra Street to be accessible to B-doubles THE completion of works on the LH Ford Bridge has sealed the fate of Cobra Street as a viable thoroughfare for B-double heavy vehicles rated to 68 tonnes which will now be able to travel up the Mitchell Highway through the centre of the city to move large quantities of freight. “This is great news for the freight industry and ensures the important job of getting supplies to and from the Central West can happen as efficiently and safely as possible,” Minister for Regional Transport and Roads Paul Toole said. “LH Ford Bridge is an iconic and essential piece of infrastructure in Dubbo, providing a link between the east and west of the town and a safe crossing over the Macquarie River in the event of a flood,” Member of the Dubbo Electorate Dugald Saunders said. The third and yet-to-be-built New Dubbo Bridge is billed by the RMS to maintain reliable access through Dubbo during flood events as well, despite a mountain of evidence to the contrary. Final work on the L H Ford Bridge supports, followed by removal of scaffolding, and site equipment will continue in coming weeks.

SURVIVAL MODE

Some businesses thriving amid pandemic

By LYDIA PEDRANA

ALL is not lost for local business amid the COVID-19 crisis. While some are struggling with the current climate, others are grateful for the support shown by the Dubbo community during this difficult time. Brennan’s Mitre 10 has witnessed an influx of business with many people choosing to tackle home DIY projects while self-isolating. Mitre 10 Dubbo retail operations manager Jane Ensor said she was pleasantly surprised sales had somewhat increased. “We were bracing for the worst, we thought that our building side of it would keep going with all the trade, but we thought our retail would definitely slip back with people being asked to stay indoors and everything like that, but no, we have maintained, and feel a little bit busier,” she told Dubbo Photo News. “We have had a massive uptake in plants, anything associated with gardening, and painting projects, so it seems people are getting out in the garden and getting some work done inside.” Unsurprisingly, Brennan’s Mitre 10 has also seen cleaning products and loo rolls run out the door. “We still have toilet paper coming in now and again, but a there has been a bit of a shortage in gloves, disinfectants, Glen 20, masks, everything like that.” In light of the current climate,

Danilo Okazima and Christopher Sesio of Press cafe

Brennan’s is continually wiping trolleys and ensuring customers adhere to social distancing rules while in store. “We also have home delivery, we are taking phone orders and online ordering, and there is a cleaning schedule for each register,” Ms Ensor said. Dave Pankhurst from The Book Connection on Macquarie Street has also experienced positive business activity. When the gravity of the coronavirus first hit Australia a couple of weeks ago, Mr Pankhurst noticed people stockpiling reading and educational material. “People were mostly buying second-hand fiction and certainly primary level and HSC level textbooks,” he said. “There was some Australian history and there was also quite substantial interest in the new release non-fiction area, mainly in the state of commercial and government administration.” Furthermore, Mr Pankhurst said his online sales have surged. “The interesting thing is, late last week and over the weekend, we just had an unusual bounce in online orders, and we did advertise that fairly substantially (in Dubbbo Photo News) a week ago, but we even had an order in this morning from America and we have orders in from Queensland where the Photo News doesn’t circulate.” With a hand sanitising station set up out the front, Mr Pankhurst

Jane Ensor, Mitre 10

did recognise customers were being more cautious when it comes to handling goods. “I detect that people are more standing and looking and once they’ve decided on a book and they are fairly happy that’s the one they want, they will pull it off the shelf as opposed to taking three or four books and wondering which one was the best one,” he said.

Dave Pankhurst, The Book Connection

Popular coffee and food joint Press has been forced to close its doors to dine-in customers but is feeling the love when it comes to its new takeaway only approach. “All the local businesses that are still working in the office they are still supporting us a lot, even if they are working from home, they are coming to grab coffee,” manager and head barista, Chris Ses-

io said. As well as offering a breakfast box, a selection of gourmet sandwiches and salad bowls to take out, the trendy eatery has also introduced a dinner offering. “We are also doing dinner for Friday, and this week we are doing Saturday as well,” Mr Sesio said. “Friday is burger night and Saturday is pasta.”

Early Rise keeps the ovens going By JOHN RYAN AS toilet paper and pasta was disappearing off supermarket shelves, Early Rise bakery was rising to the challenge of supplying much of the western region after some supply chains from metro areas broke down. With much of the output from other brands being gobbled up by shoppers hoarding supplies in Sydney and along the coast, so supermarket chains put out the call to Early Rise to ensure the daily staple was available for their customers. The company was so inundated; all its bakers were working almost double-shifts just to meet demand according to Early Rise owner Bill Stevenson. “We have been very busy over the last couple of weeks with many of our staff having to do overtime. We are

so thankful that we have this amazing team that are always willing and able to step up during these times,” Mr Stevenson told Dubbo Photo News. “As we have all seen, there were many empty shelves at our local supermarkets and shops during this uncertain time. “We are grateful that we have the ability to always ensure enough supply of our fresh, quality made products to our western region even during these peak periods. Keep an eye out for our Today’s, Bloom and Boundary Road breads at your local,” he said. Mr Stevenson said people are waking up to the importance of being able to produce food locally after the shattering of extended supply chains made headlines day after day, with acute shortages of various

goods which have always been readily available all across Australia, 24/7. He’s praised other local family-owned companies such as Ben Furney Flour Mills which also worked around the clock to ensure there were no bread shortages out west. “We believe that the Dubbo community has always supported local businesses but now more than ever, we are proud of being a local business and able to deliver when the community needed fresh bakery products,” Mr Stevenson said. “We’d like to thank the Dubbo community for their continued support during this time and allowing Village Bakehouse/Early Rise to continue to be a part of their family. “The Dubbo community have proven time and time again through floods, drought and now global pandemics that we are stronger together.”

VACCINATION

Setting the record straight on vaccines By LYDIA PEDRANA

AS a young woman living both ‘on the spectrum’ and autoimmune comprised, Kimberley Matthews is fed up with misinformation about vaccinations being spread. Particularly during a pandemic, the 29-year-old is encouraging anti-vaxxers to rethink their position and seek facts from medical authorities rather than trawling the web for answers. “I think, especially with social media and things these days, it’s so easy for people to spread misinformation as well as spreading facts, so I’m quite passionate about being one of those people on Facebook who will share links to reputable articles and information and how ingredients in vaccines actually work to try and stem the flow of misinformation,” she told Dubbo Photo News. “Go and speak to a doctor, someone who can give you the facts and knows what they are talking about because a lot of people who don’t understand, if you tell them to just go and research it themselves, they don’t know what they are looking for, but most doctors will be able to discuss it with them and explain the vaccines and how they work.” According to a factsheet on the NSW Health website,

Autoimmune-comprised Dubbo resident Kimberley Matthews is fed up with misinformation about vaccinations. PHOTO: SUPPLIED

the vaccination autism debate was sparked in 1998 by a research group in the United Kingdom led by Andrew Wakefield who suggested children who had received the measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine went on to develop bowel disease and developmental disorders. This study only included 12 children and the results were published in a respected medical journal before the

authors retracted their claims of any association between vaccines and autism in 2004. In 2010, the paper was withdrawn from the journal when the General Medical Council deemed the results of the research “proven to be false”. But what baffles Ms Matthews most is that some people would rather put their kids in danger of contracting a potentially fatal and pre-

ventable disease over supposedly becoming autistic – a condition which she has navigated all her life. “This weird idea that people have that they would rather their child at risk of dying than having autism, is a thing that I don’t understand”. Being fully vaccinated also prevents those in the community who are already at risk of contracting infection – be it a common cold or coronavirus – being put in further jeopardy. As well as living with autism, Ms Matthews has rheumatoid arthritis where her body’s immune system attacks its own tissues. This condition is treated using immunosuppressants which means she’s more vulnerable to illness and further motivated to push her provax message. “All my family are fully vaccinated, and I get all my boosters as an adult that I can get and because I’m also autoimmune compromised now, I have an additional reason to want people to vaccinate.” This has also meant Ms Matthews needs to be particularly vigilant with social distancing as the COVID-19 pandemic unfolds. Usually a teacher’s aide, she has now pivoted to a more administration focused role where she can work alone in an office.

IN BRIEF

Wellington streets rich with history By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY RESEARCHING local history takes up a lot of spare time, which retired acting editor of the Wellington Times and local history buff Marie Hoffman is finding more of these days thanks to strong ‘stay at home’ advice for seniors. When asked how long she’s been working on one of her pet projects she replies with a smile, “Yes.” The inference being, ‘a long time’. In a room in her Wellington home are a couple of shelves that probably represent years of sleuthing but the end result are folders dedicated to whole streets in Wellington, where buildings are catalogued in order as they appear in their physical location. “There’s something about each building and the people,” she said. Each building has a dedicated plastic sleeve where Mrs Hoffman stores newspaper clippings, photographs and bits of information about people, owners, shop keepers and their families creating a street by street, building by building record of Wellington’s social Wellington resident Marie Hoffman is putting retirement to good use – now social distancing at home to research her past. many local history projects.

Stay home this Easter Many readers would be looking forward to enjoying a break over Easter this weekend. While I encourage you all to enjoy some downtime if you can, I urge my constituents to please stay home and do not travel. There are reports of some people heading to isolated rural and regional communities to ‘wait out’ the COVID-19 pandemic. This is exactly the wrong thing to do - it puts both travellers and locals at risk. Now is not the time to be travelling. We need to take care of ourselves and those around us, especially the most vulnerable in our community.

NEWS OPINION AND ANALYSIS by JOHN RYAN

State your business POLICE are out in force patrolling local streets and checking why people are out and whether they have a good reason to be away from their home or workplace. It’s a difficult rule for many Australians to follow as the nation’s culture has always been one of total freedom of movement. Police are doing their job and if people give them a hard time, that may impact on their continued ability to be as pleasant as possible – that could spiral down into distrust and meanness on both sides of the equation. Please, in these difficult times, just work at being nice to everyone.

Easter 2020 – Dubbo not open for business THE NSW Health Minister has stated that people have started taking “sneaky holidays” to regional areas for Easter, but unfortunately in 2020, that’s just not on. Communities across regional NSW and the rest of the state are trying to adapt to new rules and guidelines to slow the spread of COVID-19 and the state government has outlined orders under the Public Health Act that state a person MUST NOT leave their home without a reasonable excuse. Police have been tasked to enforce these new rules and it’s a pretty thankless job. They won’t be stopping people from going to the supermarket and pharmacy, going to and from work if you cannot work from home, going to medical appointments, or leaving for some brief exercise in your own neighbourhood – but recreational travel is not a reasonable excuse. The government has stated that travel and holidays are NOT ESSENTIAL at this time. Holidays throughout the state are not on that list of exemptions.

Health Minister echo STATE health minister Brad Hazzard has echoed the call for people to stay home unless they have a reasonable excuse for leaving. He says exercise is important for physical and mental health. “The list of exercise types is endless and it is not possible to list them all; and some forms of exercise are more active than others,” Mr Hazzard said. “The important thing is that people comply with the two person rule when doing exercise, or that they only exercise with their household. “As I keep saying, a good rule of thumb is that if you are questioning whether you should be doing something, it is best to give it a miss – treat every situation like YOU have the virus,” he said.

Double demerits in force THE Traffic and Highway Patrol Command is reminding the community that, while travelling for holidays is not considered ‘essential’ travel, officers will continue to be out in force over the Easter long weekend. The traditional Operation Tortoise, a state-wide road safety operation over the Easter long weekend, will see officers targeting speeding, mobile phone, seatbelt and motorcycle helmet offences – all of which will attract double demerit points.

DV major concern

Train derailed near Geurie after heavy rain A Dubbo-bound freight train partially derailed just east of Geurie on April 4 after heavy overnight rain caused localised flooding which washed Double demerit points commenced from 12.01am today (April 9) will continue until 11.59pm on April 13. Police minister David Elliott reminded the community that it is not the time to be out on the roads unless it is absolutely necessary. Traffic and Highway Patrol Commander, Assistant Commissioner Michael Corboy, reminded members of the public who were undertaking essential travel that the same road rules applied.

Sydney tower climb canned PLENTY of firefighters from the region have gone all out up the endless stairs for charity over the past few years, competing against firies from across the state in the annual MND Sydney Tower Climb, an event aimed at raising much needed money for Motor Neurone Disease research. Last year the guys raised $849,855, an incredible sum, and that sort of money will be sorely missed. This year’s climb is yet another victim to the social distancing requirements thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic sweeping the world.

Car stopped, drugs seized ON April 4 police stopped a green Holden Commodore on the Castlereagh Highway at Coonamble, subjecting the driver to a random breath test, which returned a negative result. After speaking with the driver, officers allegedly located and seized methylamphetamine, cannabis, unauthorised prescription

The 31-year-old man was arrested and taken to Coonamble Police Station.

The man was refused bail to appear at Dubbo Local Court this week.

Online safety while locked up NSW Police Force is urging parents and carers to remind their children about online safety during the current COVID-19 restrictions and upcoming school holidays. With the community spending so much time indoors following the directions to self-isolate, police are encouraging parents to speak to their children about their activities online. Safe internet use – tips for parents and carers: z Monitor how much time your child spends on the internet, what websites they are visiting and who they may be speaking to. z Ensure you are able to access your child’s email and social media accounts and randomly check the contents. z Remind children to never send pictures of themselves to anyone they don’t know and never place a full profile and picture anywhere on the internet. z Remind children to never give out personal information, including full name, home address,

Fire and rescue emergency measures NARROMINE Fire Station has sent Dubbo Photo News a list of operational changes the organisation will be adhering to during the current crisis. Some of the changes include: z Cancellation of all non-essential community engagements – the firies won’t be able to visit your school or childcare centre to pass on fire safety messages for a while. z If you visit a fire station for any non-life-threatening issues, they’re not going to be able to let you in. z You may notice fire trucks at emergencies with firefighters sitting inside. FRNSW is minimising the amount of close contact firefighters have between different crews and the community. z If you see firefighters sitting in fire trucks and not getting out, this is not us being rude. Feel free to wave from a distance – they’ll still wave back. z Home Fire Safety Checks – smoke alarms normally done at end of daylight savings were all postponed. z Open Days at fire stations have been cancelled. These measures are necessary to ensure FRNSW continues to be able to respond to all Incidents 24/7. Behind the scenes, firies are doing a lot of hard work to continuously decontaminate trucks, uniforms and fire stations to en-

West Dubbo ram raid Police are appealing for information from the public after the Free Choice Tobacconist shop in West Dubbo was ram-raided about 4am on April 3. Thousands of dollars of damage was done to the front of the shop, while the bandits escaped with a few hundred dollars worth of cigarettes.

DUBBO police say COVID-19 will never be an excuse for violence towards others and with so many people locked down in close proximity to others, where there may have been incidents of DV in the past, this issue is a real focus for police in coming months. Police say verbal, emotional, psychological and physical abuse is domestic violence. It can happen in all relationships. If you’re experiencing domestic violence and need the police, call Triple Zero (000).

Trips from home RURAL crime police say that brief fishing trips from home are considered exercise (within the two-person limit), but fishing and camping holidays are not. The inclusion of fishing, hunting and golf as an allowable recreation is about people who can access that activity locally, police say you cannot use fishing, hunting or golf as an excuse to travel on a holiday or to your usual retreat in country NSW. All police in regional NSW will be patrolling roads and conducting high visibility policing operations and, along with traffic law enforcement, those officers will be targeting unnecessary travel. Persons detected travelling without reasonable excuse will be directed to return to their home address and run the risk of being issued with a $1000 infringement notice, a police statement said. As on land, there are also exceptions that apply on water but if you’re on the river, social distancing rules always apply – at the boat ramp and on your boat. You should only be on your boat alone, or with no more than one other person; or with family who ordinarily live in the same household as you. A ‘reasonable excuse’ to use your boat could be to exercise (e.g. kayaking/sailing/paddling etc) or to fish.

Saleyard socialising stops THE Rural Crime Prevention Team (RCPT) has been monitoring attendances at saleyards and say it’s pleasing to see that those attending are respecting the social distancing protocols. They would also like to thank saleyard management for putting in systems and communication strategies to comply with the restrictions, whilst keeping the sales going. “We have also been impressed by the positive attitude of farmers and agents who are committed to get through these difficult times,” an RCPT spokesperson said. “For the RCPT it is very much business as usual and we encourage farmers to report all rural crimes immediately. “Whilst we have always encouraged reporting by attending local police stations, please ring your local police station or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 instead. “If you are not local to our regional areas, please don’t be tempted to visit, unless it is essential as defined by the current restrictions.” z Send your news tips to john.ryan@panscott.com.au or 0429 452 245 txt is best

Growing grass needs to be trimmed

WITH more than 25 years mowing lawns around Dubbo, Top Job Lawncare’s Glen Bloink said the scars from the vicious run of extra dry seasons are becoming a distant memory. “During the height of the drought I went back to about three days a week, I’d never seen anything like that, I’ve been running this business for 26 years now and it was unprecedented,” Mr Bloink told Dubbo Photo News from the seat of his ride-on mower. He said he saw daily, a general loss of confidence, with many people concerned that Dubbo could run out of water. “People spent a long time hoping for a bit of rain but no-one knew if and when it was coming. There was so much uncertain-

ty and no-one knew what was around the corner. “Two or three days after that first lot of rain the phone started ringing and it hasn’t stopped since,” he said. And while the Covid-19 pandemic has crippled much of the nation’s workforce, along with the freedom of movement Australians have always taken for granted, Mr Bloink said he’s glad his business can still operate and that he’d go stir crazy if he couldn’t work. “No, it’s fantastic to be able to keep busy and we’re actually getting more work now because of the Covid-19 because some lawnmower contractors have shut down so we’re getting a lot of their work,” he said. “And big organisations that rely on volunteers, they’re not actually allowed to get the volunteers to

do those jobs anymore so we’re getting their work as well.” With recent good rainfall across the city, he said the the growing grass is something people are keen to keep in check. “People are just glad that when they ring up we’ll say we’ll get there to do the work – it might take a couple of days but we always get there, we’re working long hours and Saturdays and Sundays at the moment,” he said. “There’s a lot of uncertainty. People are worried because they don’t know if this is going to last two months or six months. “You’ve just gotta take one day at a time and do what you can do, as long as people self-isolate and stay that safe distance apart and keep clean.” As well as the lawnmowing business, all his spare time is spent farming on a block not far

from Dubbo. He achieved national notoriety last year when his nudie run during a downpour went viral across Australia. Mr Bloink said he’s found the livestock market too difficult to buy into at the moment, the long running drought decimated the nation’s sheep and cattle numbers and now with plenty of feed and strong demand for meat, he said everyone who de-stocked during the big dry is trying to get back in. As for the damage caused by rain – he’s not letting that phase him for a second. “I’ve got fences that are flattened, paddocks that have been washed out and it’s good to see, you can’t complain about the rain. I’d much rather have flattened fences and good grass rather than standing fences and no grass at all.”

MEMBER for the Federal Electorate of Parkes Mark Coulton has confirmed the Government has set reasonable expectations of energy companies to protect households and small businesses during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Government expects electricity and gas companies to implement these measures until at least July 31, 2020 – including offering all households and small businesses that are in financial stress a payment plan or hardship arrangement, waiving any disconnection, re-connection or contract break fees for small businesses which have gone into hibernation, and not disconnecting customers who may be in financial stress, without their agreement. It also includes deferring referral of any customer to a debt collection agency for recovery actions or credit default listing and minimising planned outages for critical works. The Government says it will monitor retailer and network compliance with these measures.

IT’S A RECORD! Bob Weighton from the UK has been officially conﬁrmed as the oldest person living (male) at 112 years and 1 day as of March 30, 2020. Amidst the current UK rules around social distancing, a Guinness World Records adjudicator was unable to meet Bob in person as they normally would. Instead the assisted living home where Bob lives arranged for Happy Birthday to be sung to him on his balcony and presented him with his certiﬁcate, all from a safe distance to celebrate this remarkable milestone.

COVID-19

IN BRIEF

A ﬂush beats a full house By JOHN RYAN WITH confusion surrounding who could and should work during the current crisis, Steve Gower said he needed to get a ruling on his carpet cleaning business from the horse’s mouth. “I got in contact with our local member Dugald Saunders and he called me back which was fantastic and we had a very in-depth conversation in relation to my business and he deemed it as an essential service because of hygiene,” Mr Gower said. The water produced by Mr Gower’s cleaning machine is heated to a temperature of above 250 degrees Fahrenheit, and he says it gives a very clean, clean. “The biggest factor I spoke to Dugald about was with water damaged services that we provide when places have been flooded and sewer back-ups. “With so many people using towelling paper instead of toilet paper, towelling paper is not designed to go down the sewerage system so eventually it’s going to clog up, it’s going to happen all over the place at some stage.” He said if sewerage systems get overloaded it creates major problems, dramas which will be made far worse by the fact so many people are actually stuck at home during the current semi-lockdown. “It’s black water and it’s not

hygienic and people need to be aware of that,” he said. “People need to look at their insurance policies as well and make sure that they are covered under these sorts of instances. No two policies are the same, you can buy the basic or top of the line policies and you get what you pay for.” He said people often assume they’re fully covered; they get him in to do a job only to find out they’re not.

“Unfortunately they’ll often put the claim in and realise they’re not going to get this or that and even down to tenants. Don’t get complacent that this type of thing comes under your landlord’s insurance because it doesn’t. “Your landlord’s insurance covers that property, not your contents, so if you’re renting, take out a contents insurance, it’s not a lot of money,” Mr Gower said. At the end of the day he says

this crisis is so overwhelming, everyone needs to play their part. “Look after your neighbours, talk to them over the fence,” he said. “It’s not just a situation of what my business is about, it’s looking after everyone’s mental health as well, we’ve got to look out for each other, yell out across the street asking if everything’s alright or call a friend you haven’t spoken to for a while.”

Free, 24/7 mental health digital services made available for youth NIGHT or day, young people experiencing pressures because of the COVID-19 pandemic can find free support, and give it to others, through Australia’s leading online youth mental health service, ReachOut. “Many are facing a number of uncertainties including increased stress and financial pressure at work and home, the closure of schools and universities, and feelings of isolation from their social groups, particularly as sport and extra-curricular activities shutdown.” ReachOut CEO Ashley de Silva said. “Everything we do at ReachOut is digital, which means we can continue to offer the same level of support in safe online spaces, as well as provide resources and selfhelp tips designed specifically for young people. “We also know that some young Australians may be feeling disconnected from their usual supports – be it mental health professionals or even just a friend they can talk to about what’s going on for them. ReachOut and our peer forums are a great resource that can help support them during this time.” Support for parents is also available. Visit https://au.reachout.com

As of Friday last week they seem to be working on keeping their distance a little bit more – here they can do calm shopping, just pop in and get what they need and that’s what we’re aiming for here.” The newsagent thinks Australian society will see this crisis as a wake-up call and hopes that out of the pain and hurt, many people will realise that personal relationships are far more important that material possessions. “I think a lot of people will think, don’t sweat the small stuff, we’ve just gotta keep it simple and I think a lot of people are doing that,” she said. “I just hope that everyone stays safe and looks after themselves.”

Overcoming isolation

- the Oak Tree Way

With the current Coronavirus restrictions, society as a whole is experiencing isolation like never before. But seniors in particular are among those most heavily impacted, as families and friends do their best to keep their older loved ones safe and maintain their physical distance. The secure, community nature of our retirement villages offers a welcome reprieve, no doubt contributing to the steady enquiries Oak Tree has received since the pandemic spread. For anyone who has been weighing up retirement options, they’re finding that now is the time to take action and secure their future. The benefits of connectivity We know we generally feel happier when maintaining social connections, but did you know it actually benefits you mentally and physically? Interactions keep both our bodies and brains active. Engaging with others can help reduce the risk of heart disease, dementia and Alzheimer’s to name a few, while helping to stave off feelings of isolation, emptiness and depression. At Oak Tree, it’s reassuring to know that you can still have your own personal space, but that help from

Gratitude for front line pharmacies Federal Member for Parkes and Minister for Regional Health Mark Coulton receiving his ﬂu shot at TerryWhite Chemmart Delroy Park, following the Chief Medical Officer’s advice to get the ﬂu shot as early as possible this year. PHOTO: DUBBO

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY “I REALLY want to thank our team and our pharmacists. They are the first port of call when someone can’t get in to see a doctor, and right now they deserve a lot of recognition.” These are the words of Sally Sheehan, pharmacist and business partner of TerryWhite Chemmart at Delroy Park. “Staff in all chemists ought to be congratulated for what they’re dealing with. They’re at the real coalface of this. All our staff have got families but they’re turning up for work and soldiering on. “They’re all under stress. Everyone’s trying so hard and they are really coping so well with everything they’re having to deal with,” she said. Adding to the demands of social distancing, medicine shortages, Telehealth requirements and increased home deliveries, pharmacies from last week also started giving flu shots. “The Chief Medical Officer has encouraged people to have their flu shots early. We’ve started giving shots for 10-year-olds and over. Book online to avoid disappointment because of course we just can’t have everyone come in at the same time,” Mrs Sheehan said. Federal Minister for Regional Health and Parkes MP Mark Coulton says it’s even more important to be vigilant about the flu as we

deal with the COVID-19 pandemic. “Expert medical advice is that everyone aged six months and over should be vaccinated against influenza to protect themselves and others,” Mr Coulton said. Mrs Sheehan said no matter why you call on a pharmacy for help, remembering the pressure they’re now experiencing is a good reason to be kind.

“We have had a few customers who have been a little aggressive towards staff because they may not be aware of the new regulations that came in due to COVID-19 such as pharmacies only being permitted to dispense a 30day supply of prescriptions every 20 clear days. “Asthma reliever puffers also have stricter protocols of who

can access them over the counter without a doctor’s prescription,” Mrs Sheehan said. “There have been some wonderful caring customers who have made the team morning tea, delivered coffees and even bunches of flowers. This is why I became a community pharmacist. So I could help our local customers and their families. It’s very rewarding

when you know you are making a difference.” TerryWhite Chemmart has always offered free home deliveries but recently demand has greatly increased. “We’re happy to do it. We’re doing free delivery for people who are frightened about being exposed, particularly elderly or people with elderly parents at home, or those who actually can’t get out. “Mums with young kids can use the service, if they really don’t want to take the kids out into the public.” Telehealth services are another important area staff need to find time to manage. “We’re having to ring and chase up scripts so there is a lot more work involved than someone just walking in with a script. “During the day our focus is just on customer needs so we have shortened our opening times by one hour in the afternoons, just so the staff can get all their normal jobs done. I really can’t thank our team and our pharmacists enough,” Mrs Sheehan said.

Meat pies, milkshakes, we’ll deliver to your car

Dubbo Photo News April 9-15, 2020

Dubbo’s Village Bakery Cafe is renovating and just about to re-brand as Village Bakehouse as the nation confronts the current Covid-19 crisis. But after baking the best beef pies in Australia and surviving more than 100 years in business, Village Bakery Café manager Emma Stevenson said it’s a matter of quick innovation and adaptation so they can provide the goods and services their customers need. The cafe has just launched an online ordering platform which allows people the opportunity to click and collect from the comfort of your car or free home next day delivery for orders over $40. “As well as the staple box there are lots of readymade packs which include a Family Pack 2 - that includes two loaves of bread, two white bread rolls, two family pies and six sausage rolls,” Miss Stevenson said. “They’re thought out for you and the whole family giving you one less thing to think about.” Added to the family staples and goodies such as donuts, coffee, pastries and milkshakes, Village Bakery Café is also offering a fruit and vege box for online ordering. It can also be picked up in store, brought to your car or home delivered. “The fresh fruit and vege box is 11 to 12 kilos of mixed fruit and vegetables. We get our fruit three times a week fresh from the markets in Sydney from Harris Farm and we wanted to be able to share that with the public as part of the package,” Miss Stevenson told Dubbo Photo News.” “If they don’t want to leave their home they have the comfort of knowing we can deliver it to their door.” High demand for the new service has caught the Bakery by surprise, with families and elderly residents who don’t want

to leave their homes taking advantage of the delivery option. “Oh, they absolutely love it, it’s really really good. We’ve been servicing the community for over 100 years, it’s a nice way for us to be able to say thank you back to them and they’re just loving it, so it’s really good,” Miss Stevenson said.

She said it wouldn’t be Easter without hot cross buns and they can be delivered fresh to your door ready for the long weekend. “We’d like to thank the Dubbo community for their continued support during this time and allowing Village Bakehouse/Early Rise to continue to be a part of their family.” You can head to www.villagebakehouse.com.au to order.

COUNTRY Women have joined the rush online as traditional meeting places are ruled out because of current social distancing restrictions. The Country Women’s Association of NSW Tea Room has always been a favourite at the Royal Easter Show, but with the show’s cancellation this year the organisation has given its famous Devonshire Tea a cyber twist in an effort to keep vital fundraising dollars ticking over. This week, the CWA of NSW launched its “virtual scone” campaign where people can go online and purchase a virtual Devonshire Tea or even whole batch of virtual scones. NSW CWA president Stephanie Stanhope said the show’s cancellation meant the loss of a significant fundraising opportunity, but with challenges also comes opportunities and a very 21st century initiative has been devised to keep funds coming in. “There’s no doubt the

show’s cancellation was an enormous disappointment and not only from a fundraising perspective, The Easter Show Tea Room is a big part of our heritage and this year would have been our 73rd year in running it,” Mrs Stanhope said. “We have more than 400 volunteers involved across the two weeks with an enormous amount of work going into the preparations and then its operation – some members have

been making the trip to Sydney to work at the Tea Room for decades. “But, at the moment all of our lives have had to change and we as an organisation are adapting along with everyone else. In recent years the CWA of NSW has run the Tea Room at the Royal Easter Show has raised an average of $150,000 from the sale of about 50,000 scones, tea, coffee and products made by members.

SOCIAL DISTANCING

Come on in but keep your distance By JOHN RYAN Social distancing was causing massive dramas for staff just trying to do their jobs and keep customers fed at the Myall Street Mini Mart according to manager Fiona Gaffney. She said people were crowding the counter, not keeping a good distance away from each other and becoming angry with workers just for asking them to give everyone some space. “You need an actual physical barrier, that helps. Some customers were getting very angry or anxious or just carried on if they were told not to touch the food counters,” Ms Gaffney said. The solution was as simple a getting a few rubber bollards and tying some emergency warning tape to them so people didn’t have to be told, they could see the physical boundaries that had been set. “Putting this up just stopped all that, they’re a lot better now, they’re more patient too because they realise without having to be told one by one. “You can see the strain on everyone because they’re worried about this virus – most people will try to separate and do the right thing but many will forget if you don’t have a physical barrier in place,” she said.

Myall Street Mini Mart has introduced physical barriers to remind customers to keep their distance. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS Myall Street is one of a number of local businesses which has swung into unchartered territory, offering delivery of food to customers and often dropping groceries off to them at the same time. “We didn’t have to do it before but we do now. There’s just not enough room in the shop for people when we get busy so we’re getting them to ring up, tell us what they want and we’ll

drop it off between 5pm and 7pm.” It’s been a difficult time, with the shop forced to cut down on staff because they can’t have so many people together behind one kitchen and counter, yet the workload remains the same. It does make it a little harder,” she said. “People are quite happy to pay over the phone and we don’t have to handle cash.”

A passion for printing

By NATALIE LEWIS RETIRED Dubbo printer Bryan Smith has a very special connection with local history. His father Claude Smith published the very first “Photo-News” newspaper which began in the 1950s. “He was born in Dubbo and grew up in Brisbane St,” Mr Smith explained. In his early years, Claude and brother Leo were both runners with a very well-known local connection. “They were both trained by Tracker Riley. Both had a crack at the Stawell Gift which was the biggest professional foot race in Australia. They probably ran a few foot races in Dubbo too.” However, Claude Smith’s passion was in printing. “Claude was always in newspapers,” Mr Smith said, saying his father had served his apprenticeship in Lithgow, before returning to Dubbo to utilise the skills he had learned. He worked on a free newspaper,

The Herald, which was situated at 37 Church Street, a time which Mr Smith remembers well. “We lived behind the office,” he said. “It was delivered to every house in Dubbo. I was one of the delivery boys. “Dad eventually joined up with the Dubbo Dispatch and Photo-News merged with that.” Mr Smith believes this was in the 1960s. In 1971, the Dubbo Dispatch was acquired by the Daily Liberal. While other printers explored different ventures, Claude was always a newspaper man through and through. “He was never very much into commercial printing,” Mr Smith said. His own career path mirrored that of his later father when he followed him into the printing business. “I learnt my trade with Dad as soon as I left school,” he said. “I could hand-feed a press from when I was 10 or 12. It was a new thing then. I was a linotype opera-

tor. You learnt things quickly!” Mr Smith ventured to the ACT where he initially worked at The Australian. “When I worked for The Australian, Dad was with the Dispatch. Then I went into commercial printing doing docket books and letterheads. “When I came home from Canberra, I joined him again at CS Printers – Claude Smith Printers. Dad died in 1975 and I worked there into the ‘80s. We had our moments but generally we got on well. We were both very good workers. “We knew what we had to do and that is what we did. In those days, it was what you did.” Describing his father’s character, Mr Smith said he was a very generous person. “He was a member of Rotary. He was very well-known and he was willing to give free space to promote something. That is still the same (in today’s Dubbo Photo News).” Mr Smith said the printing in-

dustry in Dubbo in its heyday was hectic. “It was a frustrating business at times. There was a lot of competition in Dubbo in those days,” he said. Mr Smith took a break from printing for 13 years and bought a milk run. When Dubbo Photo News commenced in the 2000s, Mr Smith once again delivered the newspaper. “I used to deliver the paper again when it started, the Dubbo Photo News. I was quite chuffed that (publisher Tim Pankhurst) picked the same name. I told him about the coincidence.” Mr Smith later worked for the Orana Education Centre (OEC) before retirement. “I took great delight in seeing the OEC produce high quality publications,” he said. His career spanned a time when printing and press production changed so dramatically that it became almost unrecognisable from the ways of old.

“The way in which news and documents are produced is constantly changing. Today’s printers are a world away from them,” Mr Smith said. He still loves to read hard copy newspapers such as the Sydney Morning Herald as well as watching the ABC every day. “Printing has always been in my blood.”

Dubbo Herald Printing Works

THE Herald Printing Works was operating in Dubbo in 1933. Sometime in the 1940s, the business was taken over by Albert Grace (machinist) and Kenneth Wirrell (printer). After the partnership was dissolved in 1955, Grace continued the business located at 37 Church Street under the name Dubbo Printing Works. George and Stanley Maliphant ran the Dubbo Dispatch between the 1930s and the 1960s.

HEALTH

World of hidden pain By JOHN RYAN

WHILE COVID-19 sweeps news headlines like nothing that’s come before, many people trying to promote ongoing causes of pain and frustration are struggling to get their messages out. Olivia Beasley spent all of March fundraising for Endometriosis Australia – it was Endometriosis Awareness Month. She’s been living with endometriosis for nearly nine years now and says she was misdiagnosed for six of those years. Late last month, her workplace, JB-HiFi, staged a morning tea and most of Olivia’s co-workers dressed in yellow to support not only their workmate, but all sufferers. “I was 12 years old when I first started getting these excruciating pains,” Ms Beasley told Dubbo Photo News. “These pains at the time were very hard to explain. I would usually be doubled over in pain, either in tears or close to it, to the point where I would need to get sent to the sick bay at school and then go home to sleep away the pain.” A long series of visits to doctors began and the testing started. An ultrasound was taken to eliminate appendicitis and a check of her kidneys revealed she had been born with just one. Ms Beasley has been a professional wrestling fan her entire life, and up until that point had thought about competing in the future, but now that was all in doubt. “It didn’t really hit me until I had a specialist appointment where he told me I couldn’t have physical contact because I would die. “At this point, I was about 13 or 14, and my dream of competing in

wrestling or martial arts was shattered and I still had no answers why I was in pain,” she said. Ms Beasley said some male doctors she had visited as a young teenager recommended she go on the pill, believing it was just period pain and “every single woman goes through it”. “I knew in my heart that what I was experiencing wasn’t just your typical period cramps, and as I was getting older, the pain was starting to get unbearable,” she said. At age 17, Olivia was scrolling through Facebook and came across a post by Libra about Endometriosis so she Googled it and some of the symptoms started adding up. She questioned her local GP who referred her to a female gynaecologist. “She broke everything down for me, explained that on the same side I have no kidney, the horn of my uterus on the right side didn’t develop properly, that I had a blood bank pooled up and that was partially the reasons for my pain.” Three options were presented: the contraceptive pill, the contraceptive bar, or surgery. “I turned to Mum and knew that I wasn’t going to be fixed unless I had surgery. “My first trip to Bondi Junction to see Dr Rebecca Deans was life-saving and eye-opening. She laid everything out – the pros and cons of surgery – and reassured me that she would be the one to

operate on me,” Olivia explained. “By the time I was 18, I was graduating high school and already on a waiting list to have a hysterectomy. I was very depressed and anxious leading up to surgery. I can remember waking up after surgery and the nurses came around to explain in full what had happened.” Originally the surgery was to remove Olivia’s right horn but while on the operating table doctors discovered stage three endometriosis and immediately cut that out. “A year later, I started getting different pains compared to before surgery; shooting pains, stabbing pains, sharp pains up my vagina.” She went back to Bondi to get the contraceptive bar inserted in her arm but the pains persisted; now she gets a special $99 cream made up to numb the pain. “I am 20 years old. I’ve been severely depressed and I’ve gone through four weeks of therapy. I am so grateful for the incredible love and support from my family,

my friends, my work colleagues, even the ladies I attend bingo with every Wednesday who helped me raise over $500 for Endometriosis Australia,” Olivia said. “I would not be here if it wasn’t for the support of my best friend who was FaceTiming me the four nights at hospital so I wasn’t alone, the multiple friends in the wrestling business with their numerous supporting messages, my incredible work colleagues for showing their support by wearing yellow, and my family and friends for always letting me vent and never passing judgment if I was in pain.”

She said she owes a special thanks to her mum who made every trip and never left her side during the procedures and ensured all questions were answered by medical staff. “If I can raise awareness to one other woman in this country, and then she passes it on to other women, then I feel like I’ve achieved something,” Olivia said. “One in 10 Australian women suffer from this invisible illness – surgical intervention is the only way to properly diagnose endometriosis and there is no cure.”

TRAVEL

Have sister, will travel – Part 1 By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY ONLY one thing mattered to Val Clark on March 5 this year and that was meeting a sister not seen or spoken to for more than 50 years – until making contact just two years ago. The sister, Averil Sanders, lives in Tenerife in the Spanish Canary Islands, and when a reunion trip was booked back in June 2019, Val pinned on an extra couple of months to the trip, to bucket list the UK and Europe. COVID19’s rapid and tragic decimation of Italy and subsequent spread into France, Germany and Spain, meant the three-month journey ended after two weeks when Val and husband Martin heeded government warnings to come home. She said changed travel bookings and flights getting cancelled almost as rapidly as they were confirmed made the return journey a story that captures the uncertainty of these extraordinary times. “The Coronavirus was just beginning to become news, but I was concerned if we didn’t go, we might never have the opportunity again. I don’t think anybody in Australia realised how bad it would get,” Val said.

In early March, Val and Martin spent a “fabulous” five days getting to know Averil and her partner, Peter. “Eating, drinking, talking, laughing, connecting deeply as we tried to make sense of our shared heritage,” she said. When Averil was born, their mother Joyce emerged from hospital to find husband Pat jobless and together with their two toddler boys they were also homeless; a common story in Britain three years after WWII. “My parents eventually found jobs at the Butlin’s Holiday Camp in Bognor Regis, but there was no room for a baby,” Val said. Averil had been left with an aunt and would be four years old before the family were reunited but for reasons Val doesn’t know Averil was not returned to her parents. “So, Averil was raised as my cousin. I had a sister-sized hole in my heart and continually nagged Mum for a sister. It wasn’t until I was 13 and living in Australia that Mum got sick of my nagging and told me Averil was my sister.” After Val’s parents passed away, contacts with Averil faded away until no-one knew for certain where she

was. “For a long time I was reluctant to try and find her, scared she wouldn’t want to know us, or me. Eventually I decided that it didn’t matter if she rejected me, what was important was that she knew I wanted to connect.” Val posted a photo of a young Averil on a Facebook group called “Aussie and UK Angels – Reuniting Long Lost Family and Friends”. “Within 20 minutes they had found her! She was retired and living in Tenerife with her German partner, Peter, and delighted to reconnect. We started to Facebook message each other daily and over time I realised she has a compromised immune system so is unable to travel by plane.” The only way forward was for Val to visit Averil and their first hug in over 50 years happened on Thursday, March 5. On the same day back in Australia the airline industry was reassuring the public that flying was low risk for catching COVID19 but numbers of travellers were falling fast. By March 19, Qantas stood down 20,000 workers and available flights to Australia became rarer than handshakes.

NEXT WEEK: Part 2 – Val Clark and husband Martin cut their three-month UK/Europe holiday short and head home to Australia amidst a global transport industry shut down.

Memorial donation

Behnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s big heart for little lives lost While he prides himself on pouring his heart into every job, for Dubbo landscape designer, Behn Monley, one recent project became more personal than usual. After completing some work for NALAG (National Association for Loss and Grief), a chance tour of the Dubbo centre with long-time Chief Executive, Trudy Hanson, led Behn to share his own familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s story. Trudy explains: â&#x20AC;&#x153;We recently contracted Dubbo Landscaping to make a special area for support and counselling. When Behn saw the Babies Remembering Garden, he opened up about his familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own loss â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a baby brother â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and we had a talk about how important it is to acknowledge and memorialise those little lives lost too soon,â&#x20AC;? she recalls. Behn offered to design and donate something for the garden and asked Trudy what he should put on the memorial in terms of inscription. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I said he should ask his mum what she would like to go on the plaque. The result is absolutely beautiful. â&#x20AC;&#x153; Behn says seeing NALAGâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Babies Remembering Garden â&#x20AC;&#x153;really hit close to homeâ&#x20AC;?. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I was in primary school, my mother lost a baby boy, so I know what itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like for families to go through a loss like this. When my brother died, we went through all the ups and downs, and I remember the downs very well.â&#x20AC;? The landscaper says the donation

of a memorial for the garden was an opportunity to use his skills to â&#x20AC;&#x153;give backâ&#x20AC;? in many ways. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something you never get over â&#x20AC;&#x201C; I know Mum will never get over it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So to be able to do this, not only for NALAG and for other families, but for my own family, is a really good feeling.â&#x20AC;? Trudy says NALAGâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Babies Remembering Garden is a very valuable place for families who have suffered this deeply painful kind of loss. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The loss of a child through miscarriage and stillbirth can easily become what we call disenfranchised grief where peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s losses are often unknown, unsupported and can sometimes be kept hidden,â&#x20AC;? she says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These days weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re able to have funerals, where in times past that wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even thought of. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been recognised in more recent years that miscarriage and stillbirth DUH VLJQLÂżFDQW ORVVHV DQG ZH QRZ have things like the internationally recognised Pregnancy and Infant Loss Day in October each year.â&#x20AC;? The experienced grief and loss counsellor says that as a society weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re now recognising the importance of ritual around any type of death or loss, and that memorialising is a very valuable part of the grieving and healing process. â&#x20AC;&#x153;NALAG is deeply grateful for the kindness and generosity of Behn and the others involved in the donation of this new memorial for the Babies

In dedicating the memorial, Behn paid tribute to Rob and Michelle Mackay, local artists and stonemasons who donated a VLJQLÂżFDQW DPRXQW RI WLPH WR EULQJLQJ WKH project to life. Behn says he was just â&#x20AC;&#x153;the ideas guyâ&#x20AC;? and the Mackays jumped at the opportunity to be involved. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A number of different local families have had input to the memorial â&#x20AC;&#x201C; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been a collective effort from a number of people who have been touched by this particular kind of loss.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;This memorial has a lot of meaning for a lot of people.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t until I did the landscaping job for NALAG that I realised how much (the organisation) does for the community, so it was really great to have the opportunity to do something for them, and at the same WLPH DFNQRZOHGJH P\ RZQ IDPLO\ÂśV VLJQLÂżcant loss.â&#x20AC;?

Why the embargo on floodplain harvesting Dear Editor, On March 1 this year, Dubbo Environment Group sent a letter to NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian requesting an explanation regarding her government’s sudden lifting of an embargo on floodplain harvesting. This unlicensed diversion of February’s “first flush” of floodwater promised to the desperately dry lower basin rivers, was diverted instead to the holding dams of a select group of properties in the northern basin. We also asked the NSW Premier, on our behalf as honourable citizens, to comply to the Murray Darling Basin Authority so that all stakeholders in all states received their fair allocation of water. NSW has refused to cooperate for more than a year, effectively running their own race without any regulation. Mrs Berejiklian referred our letter to the Minister for Water Melinda Pavey. Melinda Pavey has not replied. On March 19, our group met with Dubbo MP Dugald Saunders. We expressed our concerns about the over-allocation of water to irrigators at the expense of river health. We described the dire condition of the Macquarie Marshes and the hundreds of centuries-old river red gums which had died there. Mr Saunders assured us that plenty of water is delivered

to the Marshes and that the river gums died from too much water. Here are direct quotes from two University of NSW scientists: “Our research shows the Marshes, which provide vital habitat for millions of water birds, are progressively drying out,” says Director of the UNSW Centre for Ecosystem Science Professor Richard Kingsford. “The plants tell the story: river red gums have died in large numbers in some areas and the reeds and other aquatic plants that used to be wet most of the time are not receiving as much flood water as before. “We found nearly half – 44 per cent – of the river red gums that were alive and healthy in 1993 were dead by 2012, despite the widespread flooding at the end of this period,” said a second UNSW researcher, Katherine Catelotti. In July 2019, Professor Kingsford reported to the ABC that in the 30-plus years that he had been conducting bird-count surveys in the Murray Darling Basin, the waterbird population had fallen by about 70 per cent. Dubbo Environment Group eagerly awaits the answers to 19 questions tended to Mr Saunders about the NSW National Party’s water-management practices. We eagerly await responsible poli-

Thumbs Up to the print shop at Officeworks The Editor (letter dated April 1), This past weekend our father passed away very suddenly, and due to the government restrictions on funerals at the moment only the four siblings and our partners will be able to attend the service tomorrow. We lost our mother less than 12 months ago and her funeral was attended by over 150 family and friends, so tomorrow will be a very difficult time for the eight of us sitting at opposite ends of alternate pews. When I went to Officeworks on Tuesday afternoon to print out a

few copies of the order of service, I attempted to pay for the printing however the lovely guy behind the counter at the Printshop told me there would be no charge as they had been given discretionary funds for special circumstances. I was so touched by his kind gesture that I didn’t get his name. It really has made a difference to such a difficult week, and I will be returning to the store to find him and express my thanks in person. Name supplied but withheld on request.

MP urges “Please don’t travel” The Editor On behalf of the people of Port Stephens who I represent, and all other regional communities, I have a simple plea. A plea to people who were going

to travel this Easter: please don’t. A plea to people who’ve already set off on their Easter holiday: please return home. Port Stephens is a beautiful and welcoming community, but like many regional areas, we are also an ageing and vulnerable community. We cannot afford for the virus to circulate more in our midst. Nor will our limited health services serve you or your family well if you need them. Our police don’t want to fine people for taking a holiday, but if you do, they will. Rest assured, regional NSW will be welcoming visitors back with open arms when it’s safe for you and for us. Until then, please stay home and stay well.

Coronavirus brings an awakening for capitalism Greg Smart ❚ OPINION HUMANS occupy the middle earth between the microscopic we cannot see and the cosmos we barely comprehend. For millennia this led us to attribute our existence to the supernatural and the unseen. Without an understanding of germ theory, plagues were seen as punishment for ungodliness or revenge from a warring neighbour. In the modern civilised world, it took a scientific understanding of microorganisms to give us the basic hygiene practices which provide the level of health and longevity we enjoy today. We cannot deny we are co-dependent on biology and the environment. Over this co-dependence humanity has laid a system of globalisation that prioritises increasing consumption of our finite resources. The free market encourages us to buy bigger and more often, in fact it relies on us doing so, and mass transport allows us to transit the globe in hours. Which explains why a newly mutated virus can rapidly spread around the world and bring the free market to a halt in a matter of weeks. The Covid-19 pandemic has high-

lighted the importance of labour compared to capital. Without the movement and supply of labour, capitalism has come to a grinding halt. People can’t work and earn an income, business revenue stops, travel and tourism halts, and the fragility of the infinite growth marketplace is revealed. With no tangible ending to the pandemic in sight, governments have been forced to put their hands in their pockets to sustain the marketplace. In Australia we have a good benchmark of large government stimulus packages following the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) of 2009, when $42 Billion was injected into the Australian economy by way of infrastructure building, small business tax breaks and cash payments to citizens. The GFC was a crisis of demand (hence more money in the system generated demand,) whereas this pandemic is a crisis of supply – no labour, no tourism, no hospitality, crippled health and education services. With interest rates at record lows and an Australian economy at near recession prior to the pandemic, the federal government has very few stimulus levers to pull. And it can’t magically repair logistics and supply chains suffering from quarantined manpower. But in a time of national crisis, it has to been seen to be doing something, otherwise a hammering at the next election

is inevitable – especially after the PR disaster of PM Morrison’s Hawaiian holiday during the bushfire emergency. In what I think is a surprising move, the federal conservative government has adopted the macroeconomic policies of British economist John Maynard Keynes, who advocated for increased government spending and lower taxes to stimulate demand and pull England out of the Great Depression. To go ‘Keynesian’ is against the key tenants of the free market ideology of the Liberal Party; the Party having campaigned on its economic credentials of lower taxes, and reducing the ‘debt and deficit’ left by the Labor Party. The $228 Billion Morrison Government stimulus package deserves scrutiny. As a mixture of payments to welfare recipients, wage subsidies to businesses via

the ‘job keeper’ payment to be passed onto employees, plus a further $90 Billion from the Reserve Bank for business lending. But will businesses borrow to invest in this time of uncertainty? Not likely. For a government which for so long resisted any increase to the Newstart Allowance as a means of stimulating the economy, it is miraculous they have now opened the coffers to support those who have lost or will lose their jobs. But it is somewhat disconcerting that only those in the privileged position of having on-going employment for more than 12 months will qualify for the more generous ‘job keeper’ payments. In this gig economy, which has been touted as allowing businesses to be agile and adaptive, it means that once again the most disadvantaged will miss out. Free childcare is welcome and should be a remit of government, pandemic or not. What of assistance payments ` The Covid-19 pandemic to a highly profitable, once government owned corporation, like has highlighted the QANTAS, or a billionaire/foreign importance of labour owned corporation like Virgin Aircompared to capital. lines? What does the taxpayer get Without the movement for propping up these companies? and supply of labour, No government money should be going to any business who hides capitalism has come to a grinding halt... a profit in offshore havens to avoid tax bills, to start. But there is no

doubt any deals will be made behind closed doors and remain ‘commercial-in-confidence’. It also begs the question about the how the government suddenly found hundreds of billions of dollars, when for years the public health and education systems have been calling out for increased funding to care for our human capital, only to be told we can’t afford it. Smarting from having to abandon his fabricated budget surplus, Morrison is already telegraphing a ‘snapback’ to the government of old once the pandemic is over. It will be a tall order to unwind free childcare but selling his abandonment of neo-liberal principles will be difficult to his usual voters. I predict the word ‘unprecedented’ will continue to be prominent until the next election campaign. If this pandemic has done one thing, it has brought into sharp focus the worth of front line workers like teachers, nurses, cleaners, aged care staff, hospitality and supermarket staff. Their importance to maintaining a functioning society could not be more evident. Underpaid and undervalued, these workers outshine over-paid CEOs, hedge fund managers, and elite sports people in their dedication when the proverbial hits the fan. Isn’t it time we recognised their worth with appropriate renumeration? z Greg Smart lives and works in Dubbo, and is a keen observer of current affairs.

IN FOCUS THE THUMBS

& Thumbs Up to OfficeWorks and the lovely guy behind the counter at the Printshop who told me there would be no charge for the few copies I printed off of my father’s funeral service as they had been given discretionary funds for special circumstances. I was so touched by his kind gesture it really made a difference to such a difficult week.

Ready for Easter at Stepping Stones Contributed by AMY WHITELEY A few of the children at Stepping Stones Early Learning Centre in Dubbo lined up for this photo to help wish everyone a very ‘Happy Easter’. Thanks kids!

Thumbs Down to the large supermarket that doesn’t pack for customers and without enough room on the conveyor belt to place your goods before you can get to the other end to pack. This makes it very awkward for out-of-towners who do a large shop on their own and the staff just pile heavy goods on soft goods and become rude when asked not to do so.

Thumbs Up and congratulations to our neighbours despite being small business proprietors for their 14 day self-isolation and abiding by the rules, after returning from overseas.

Thumbs Up to St Brigid’s Dubbo, for live streaming Sunday Mass at 9am and other Easter Services in these stay-at-home times. We can still kind of feel together and connected.

Thumbs Down to people who do not take Social Distancing SERIOUSLY especially at Delroy. Look where you are going and step around 1.5M of other people. This virus is deadly and we all have to take it seriously. An even bigger Thumbs Up to those who do.

Thumbs Up and a big thank you to all you wonderful Media people for providing space in your newspaper to promote the annual MND Sydney Tower Climb over the years, VERY MUCH appreciated! Such a pity that the climb has been cancelled.

Mini lakes after three inches of rain WHEN Peter Bartley ventured out to pick up the papers on Saturday morning, he was greeted by more than one small lake. The first photo shows the pooling of water in a York Street front yard, while the second shows the "water retardation basin" (as councils like to call them)

' Thumbs Down to Water NSW for the condition of the river at Wellington.

WELLINGTON NEWS What’s the go in Wello?

PHOTOS by Colin Rouse

This old mural in Arthur Street may be faded, but it’s a perceptive sign of the times when it comes to practicing, and enjoying, social distancing and self-isolation.

Above: These old BP Bowsers are long unused, a prediction of today where so many Wellington locals no longer have need of petrol or diesel if they’re staying at home. Left: Good to see the streams running near Mount Arthur after some much needed rain – early this week the ﬁgures showed rivers and creeks further up the valley must have been doing their bit after recent heavy rains, with Burrendong Dam above 10 per cent with inﬂows still running into the storage. Mini Waterfall on Mount Arthur

Wello takeaway Photos taken at McDonalds Wellington – McDonalds is still open for takeaway in Wellington. The staff are so friendly, pleased they can still be employed at such a time of uncertainty and also happy the local community is supporting the drive-thru, which in turn underpins the jobs of so many locals.

Coronavirus has come and hopefully it will go, but the remains of the old Wellington Brick Kiln will remain, looking over the landscape in total serenity.

What is this photographed in Gisborne Street, does anyone have a clue? If you do, let us know.

Courtney Cummings, service with a smile in troubling times.

WELLINGTON NEWS

A scaled back Boot for 2020 By COLIN ROUSE WELLINGTON Race Club ran its famous Wellington Boot race meeting last weekend and a club spokesperson said these have been the toughest times endured by locals, first battling through the crippling drought and now the Covid-19 pandemic. The 40th Anniversary of the Wellington Boot was all the club could have asked for in terms of a race meeting as the track played fair and gave all involved a great chance of winning, the $200,000 “Boot” and

$100,000 Wellington Cup great drawcards for some of the state’s best horses. Unfortunately the social distancing currently in force across the nation meant the normal race day crowds couldn’t attend, the live excitement at the track limited to jockeys, trainers and those others necessary to prepare and race the horses. Wellington Race Club was upbeat, saying the crowds will return and more importantly the 2020 event has created memories in the owners and trainers’ minds for years to come.

SPOT THE DIFFERENCE

SUDOKU EXTRA

The idea of Go Figure is to arrive at the ﬁgures given at the bottom and right-hand columns of the diagram by following the arithmetic signs in the order they are given (that is, from left to right and top to bottom). Use only the numbers below the diagram to complete its blank squares and use each of the nine numbers only once.

Place a number in the empty boxes in such a way that each row across, each column down and each small 9-box square contains all of the numbers from one to nine.

ODDS, ENDS & INSPIRATION STRANGE BUT TRUE z A World War I homing pigeon saved 194 men by delivering a message despite losing a leg and an eye, and having been shot through the chest. z Before settling on the Seven Dwarfs we know today, Walt Disney also considered the names Chesty, Tubby, Burpy, Deafy, Hickey, Wheezy and Awful. z A study showed that customers in a bookstore were 3.48 times more likely to peruse romantic books if the store smelled of chocolate, and 5.93 times more likely to buy them! z Gaius Julius Caesar arrived in the world on July 13, 100 BC, but contrary to popular belief, it’s unlikely that the future Roman emperor was born by caesarean section. Although the procedure existed at

the time, it was usually fatal to the mother and therefore only performed when a pregnant woman was dead or dying, in an effort to save the child. Caesar’s mother, Aurelia, lived until 54 BC – nearly half a century after her son’s birth. z While the technique of ﬂattening fabrics with hot pieces of metal was introduced in ancient China, the ﬁrst actual ironing board (then called an ironing table) was not invented until 1858, in New York. z The Christmas song “Silver Bells” was originally called “Tinkle Bells” until co-composer Jay Livingston’s wife informed him that “tinkle” had another meaning. z Martial arts legend Bruce Lee was a cha-cha dance champion, winning a competition in Hong Kong in 1958. z The lifespan of a taste bud is just 10 days.

NOW HERE’S A TIP z If you’re able to, fold and hang clothing straight from the dryer. The warmth of a cycle can set wrinkles that occur from being stuffed into a laundry basket. z “I really abhor bar soap, but my husband prefers it. After cleaning the soap dish, I smear it with petroleum jelly. I do the underside too. There’s a little lip that will keep the soap from sliding off, but the petroleum jelly keeps the inevitable sludge from sticking to the soap dish, making my cleaning routine much easier!” – A.D. z For maximum effectiveness, spray, then wait, then wipe. Spray cleaners need contact time to both cut through grime and to kill germs. Give surfaces a light mist, then wait up to 10 minutes before wiping clean.

z To make an avocado rose as a garnish, place half an avocado cut side down and slice. Fan the slices out into a long line, then wrap around into a spiral shape. z Chef’s secret: If you sprinkle salt from 12-14 inches above the food you’re seasoning, it’s called “raining”, and it helps the salt crystals to distribute evenly across the food’s surface. Plus it will make you look cool! z “This tip is for gardeners who live in areas that don’t often freeze. I’m safe most of the year, but when temperatures do dip, I cover my vulnerable plants. In addition to the freeze cloth, I also add a string of twinkle lights, which can add a surprisingly margin of heat. And they look pretty as well.” – M.M. z Send your tips to now-heresa-tip@dubbophotonews.com.au

By GEOFF MANN MARK Pavan was never a cricketer but his old fruit and vegetable gardens are the latest addition to Dubbo’s burgeoning fields. On Saturday morning the Italian man who has called Dubbo home for over 60 years, looked out over his Macquarie St balcony onto a partly-turfed complex that had turned into a lake overnight. The incredible downpour in the early hours revealed a 30-40 metre artificial water course. By the time our photographer, Ken Smith was alerted on Sunday morning, the “tide” had receded somewhat but the dampened ground reveals just how extensive the catchment had been. By the time Dubbo and visiting players get underway on Pavan’s Oval next season, the Council will have no doubt developed a method of handling the problem. If not, it might be “clear the water” to get a six!

NSW won the Sheffield Shield in a truncated season that saw Cowra batsman Dan Hughes named Steve Waugh winner for the first time. The hard-hitting left-hander had a breakthrough season scoring twin hundreds against South Australia to have him formally in national selectors’ sights. He was also named NSW Blues One Day Player of the Year. Dan was in Dubbo last season to promote the Baggy Blues. His easy-going nature was a hit with kids at the coaching clinic and he was keenly sought after for a chat at the dinner and breakfast which

followed. Interestingly, Daniel recalled his days with the Cowra Eagles when he was at No 1 Oval. “I played in two Colts premierships here in 2006/07,” he recalled. In fact, in one of those grand finals he scored two tries and kicked five goals to guide the Eagles to their second successive Central West premiership after snatching an intercept in their historic first win. Hughes was joined by Western Zone products Trent Copeland and Nathan Lyon at the gala Cricket NSW Presentation Dinner.

SPORT BRIEF

Golf and tennis back on...

IN this uncertain world, only one thing seems guaranteed. Sporting backflips! It seems after I had prepared a story on golf’s changed rules for last week, the word came around that there would be no play. Golf NSW has since reinstated under strict guidelines. Tennis, too has had a change of heart and locals have been able to follow certain protocols and begin lobbing and smashing over the nets once again. Racing, greyhounds and trots are still on, although Dubbo harness racing fans have limited options with Bathurst hosting most of the meetings.

LEAGUE LEGENDS

Remembering their champions By GEOFF MANN IN a tribute to modern tech-savvy league lovers with long memories, Narromine Jets, Macquarie Raiders and Dubbo CYMS Fishies Facebook pages have been overrun with postings from people keen to share their thoughts on “best players”. It is intriguing as most people recall a particular era. Their nominations reflect perhaps a filtered view so I thought it might be an idea to broaden the field a little and look at the overall lists.

Weir Medal on Group XI grand final day. The ‘74 team was led by Patrick Smith, a brilliant ball-playing five-eighth or centre who was to captain Country Firsts and the South Sydney Rabbitohs in a stellar career. Other stars of the 1974 team included future Canterbury and State of Origin star John Coveney, Penrith and St George prop Ross Cale who formed a fearsome front row with Dennis Ritchie (‘74 Amco Cup and Battle of Wade Park against Great Brit-

1953-4 Narromine team. Back, Jock Weir, Fred Wilkins, Leo Nosworthy (c/c), Joe Dundas, Jack Smith, Max Milgate, front, Ron Walsh, Kevin Wilcoxon, Maurie Wright, John McGarry, Victor Darcy. Ball boy unknown. PHOTOS: SUPPLIED

Jets Narromine of course is dominated by Bob Weir. Regarded as one of the toughest men to lace on a boot in country NSW, the crash-tackling centre played first grade as a teenager under Leo Nosworthy, sharing the spoils in three or four premierships in the 1950s. In a testament to Bob’s durability, he coached the Jets to a premiership in 1974. Despite watching from the sideline after snapping his leg late in the season, Weir plotted the win over hot favourites CYMS in a boilover at Parkes. His influence remains with players competing for the Bob

ain) and hooker Peter Walls. Then there was brilliant fullback Kymball Riley, clever half Phil Phillips and hard-working lock, Murray Bouchier. Bourchier was one of the rising stars when Weir led Narromine to a win over Ken McMullen’s CYMS team in 1968. Other local legends in that team were Norm Newman, Charlie Burrows, Des Walsh and Malcolm Dawes. Arnold “Puddy” Gillespie played Country alongside Weir in those years. His no-nonsense approach was the platform for the club’s premiership; twenty years later, son David was in the Jets Under 18s toughing it out against West-

side gun, Les Davidson. The pair represented NSW and Australia over the next decade and are always talked about as men to be feared. Others who come to mind are Mark Smith, Steve Calder, Greg Barling, Bob Weir junior, Josh Cale – the current NSW Country coach – and half Steve Thompson. Coaches like Rod Frail (1995), Tony Hutton (2000) and Terry Fahey (2005) have also been included in the eagerly anticipated Facebook postings.

Raiders Any Macquarie supporter will tell you “there was never a better playing group than Nosser’s ‘59, ‘60 and ‘61 Blues” who swept all before them, claiming the esteemed Clayton Cup for the first time in the future Balmain Tigers’ coach’s first year. “Nosser” was the talented ex-Narromine premiership winner, Leo Nosworthy who lives in retirement on the Central Coast. Test winger Don Parish was chosen on the 1959 Kangaroo tour after standout performances for Country and NSW. The brilliant Dubbo junior forced mercurial Tommy Rutherford to the wing in the Blues lineup as he charmed the crowd in the No 1. Wellington champion Johnny George played half beside Doug Moore, while Athol Curry and Barry Perry terrorised opposing packs in the old “no limit tackle, three yard rules”. Turn the clock forward and the Blues produced Amco Cup hero Bob Pilon, whose father “Tiger” had been one of “Nosser’s boys) and Noel Sing. These two crafty halves have aroused plenty of interest as club supporters search for a No 7. Ross McDermott, Bomber Forrester, Warren Wilson, Mick Perry, the Wheeler boys Peter, Phil and Malcolm as well as the Smith’s from Narromine and their teammate Kymball Riley who all pulled on the Blue and White. Dean Pay was captain of the Juniors in 1988. His record is impeccable – Country Origin, NSW, Australia and premierships with

Canterbury Bulldogs. Mark Soden, Robbie Beasley, Billy Noke were Australian Schoolboys. Amongst the most loved of all Raiders are David Peachey and his uncles Martin, Marshall and Mick. “Peach” and uncle “Marsh” are regarded as Raiders royalty! “Boony” pops up on almost every list! Peter Boon started with Macquarie as a fresh-faced boy from Wilcannia. The little star was a key player in the ‘90s, representing Country and the NSW Residential composite side drawn from all players outside the NRL. He was named Group XI Player of the Year and Referees’ Best and Fairest and claimed premierships in 2000, 2008 and 2012. He is still running around with Trangie in the Castlereagh League. There will always be debate, especially in the club that became known as Macquarie when CYMS entered in 1958. The previous Dubbo team in Group XI had its own list of champions including Eric Bennett, Bill Brown, Doug Greenwood, Alan Nylon, Keith Deacon and Billy Hill. Macquarie Raiders – “Here We Are Together Again”.

CYMS Formed as the Catholic Young Men’s Society in the mid-1940s,

the modern day Fishies entered Group XI in 1958. The club had produced many Dubbo representatives during the ten years they played in the local competition but it wasn’t until 1958 that they were accepted into the Group as an entity on their own. The early years were tough but CYMS continued to produce champions. Jack Harrison was an early coach, while the likes of John Stroud, Max Ensor, Terry Ryan, Ray McTiernan and Bob Cremin were some of the blokes who forged the club’s story. Jack Harrison was the club’s first coach while Newtown second-rower Barry Harris coached the Greens from 60-62 before returning to play with Souths in 1963. He represented Country and NSW before returning to North Sydney and continuing his career. Harris was a Penrith “pioneer”, playing 15 matches in the Panthers first year in the NSWRL Premiership in 1967. The former CYMS mentor was joined by Wayne Peckham in that historic year and played against another CYMS junior, Mick Wilson who was at Cronulla. CYMS produced champions through the early years who would become part of club legend but it wasn’t until 1963 that “the Fish Eaters” as they were then

known, downed big brother. Max Ensor, Peckham, halves McTiernan and coach Frank Byrne were instrumental while a fiery young prop, Mick Wilson took on the Blues hard men in the middle of the rucks. Since those days there have been many memorable matches as the two local clubs – and for a twenty year period – Westside, battled for supremacy. CYMS has thrown up plenty of names for supporters to sift through. When Wallaby half Ken McMullen was signed in 1968 he added a professionalism to the club that spawned a golden era. During McMullen’s time rising stars Col Parkes and Peter Walkom flourished and by the time he retired there was a crop of brilliant players he’d nurtured with Juniors coach Tommy Nelson, to carry the club through. Parkes, Steve Merritt, Martin Meredith, Brian Wilson (Cootamundra junior) all played with Manly alongside Jim See. Peter Frew became a local story with a fairytale debut against Great Britain in the bloodbath at Wade Park and was a member of the famous Amco Cup winning team alongside Peter Walkom and John “Punchy” Wilson. David “Nana” Grant was another who developed under Tommy Nelson and when North Sydney and Canterbury second-rower John McDonnell led the Greens to a first grand final win over Macquarie, the giant front rower was taken to Sydney. Nana played with Easts, Souths and Balmain and was the Canberra

Raiders’ first skipper before dying from chronic asthma far too early. In 1986 Steve Hall took CYMS to a record-breaking 56-0 win against Lord Teddy Goodwin’s Forbes Magpies. Danny Shepherd and Hall both played Country; Shepherd played a couple of seasons with Eastern Suburbs before suffering a physical meltdown while playing in severe heat. Steve Linnane played with St George, Souths and Newcastle, Coonamble junior Steve Fulmer progressed through the ranks to succeed Linnane in the Knights No 7 guernsey and there have been plenty of others who have reached the top level. CYMS latest batch of NRL stars include Isaah Yeo, Kayde Ellis and Matt Burton while in years gone by Steven Yeo played with Illawarra Steelers. CYMS coaches have included the legendary Balmain half Keith Outten and Cronulla lock John Glossop while Justin Yeo and Bernard Wilson both brought Sydney first grade experience home to their junior club and Joe Williams was at the helm when they won in 2011. In recent years Tim Ryan has led the Fishies to ten grand finals and has an unmatched premiership-winning record. His brother,

Andrew captained Canterbury to Provan-Summons Cup and is regarded as one of Western Division’s greatest, playing for both NSW and Australia. He continues to foster the game as an NRL

Pathways Development manager. The list is endless and there are many “discussions” to be held before any definitive teams are decided. It’s probably best just to remember!

GREG Ryan turned the clock back to his early days, piloting Reward Seeker, What The Fuss and Iamacrumpet to claim three of the first four races on Wellington Boot day. The former motor mechanic who turned his hands to horses in his early 20s has ridden hundreds of winners on the track in his illustrious career. In normal times, the popular hoop’s rides would have had the grandstand rocking but instead he returned to the salutations of a handful of handlers and the acclaim of race caller Col Hodges. It was a miracle the Boot went ahead after Friday night’s downpour dumped nearly 60mls on the track at the foot of Mt Arthur. The local curator deserves all the credit for the track’s availability. Wellington Jockey Club President Ian Darney says they’ve battled the conditions over the past few years so to get the meeting underway was a fabulous result. “Six weeks ago we were paying for water, now we are praying the rain stops,” Ian told me on Saturday morning. City trainers dominated the $200,000 Boot with Kris Lees’ charge, Zeftabrook holding off Damien Lane’s Girls Kick On and Bjorn Baker’s Lady of Luxury. “This is an enormous purse for a country town. I remember the first meeting was only worth $18,000 for the whole card,” Ian laughed. Dubbo trainer Kody Nestor drove home from Sydney on Saturday night to saddle up two winners. After Fast Talking had come within a nose of grabbing third place in the Country Championships Final on Saturday, the former jockey scored with One Pound and What The Fuss on Sunday.

‘Ridge and Bourke meetings cancelled EASTER staples featuring Lightning Ridge Bracelet Cup and Harry Hart Memorial Trophy at Bourke have fallen victim to the Corona Virus for this year. Racing NSW stopped all nonTAB and Picnic meetings over a month ago in a blow to both communities. This year’s events had enormous potential for communities to gather and celebrate the return of life-giving water to western rivers and the burgeoning regrowth after recent rains. Mudgee will host a seven race TAB meeting on Easter Sunday with Coonabarabran on the following Friday and a specially sanctioned Picnic Cup qualifier at Forbes on the same day.
