RUBBISH BIN HOTROD

Talks held on easing restrictions in Dubbo sooner than Sydney

By JOHN RYAN Jeff Jardine’s imagination and creative steak has captured the hearts and minds of people across Australia. In a spurt of self-isolation genius, he built a hot-rod from two discarded wheelie bins and public reaction has trashed the internet! Jeff said a mate from Gilgandra who’s in the same motorcycle club invited him to join an online group called Bin Isolating Outing. “On the page people were getting frocked-up and dressed up in all sorts of fancy dress costumes to put their wheelie bins out, and they’re recording that as a way to help get through this time of social distancing and isolation that we’re in,” Mr Jardine said, adding that his idea to dress up a bin came from the fact “my wheelie bin goes out more often than I do”! “The idea of the hot-rod car was just to amuse myself and my daughter. I had a couple of wheelie bins left over from when the new bins were dropped off and I hadn’t done anything with my old bins. I also had an old broken ride-on lawnmower sitting in my scrap pile up the back so it came about from those bits and pieces. “Monique likes spending time on the iPad so I wanted to do something cool that was practical and hands-on instead,” he said. “I’m a sheet metal worker by trade, I did my trade here years ago, but I haven’t been in the trade for years – I’ve been working out at Fletcher’s for 23 years.” He said the response to his invention has blown him away. “It’s been pretty good, we’ve had people ask what sort of motor’s in it and I’ve joked around with it a bit. Ford put out a 351-cubic-inch Windsor motor so I’ve been telling them it’s got a Ford V8 Bindsor motor in it!” he said. Monique said the bin was weird but fun, although she let Dubbo Photo News into the secret that it wasn’t a “real car”.

BAD BEHAVIOUR By JOHN RYAN

ALLEGED riots, arson, multiple firearm thefts, a man wandering South Dubbo with a knife and million-dollar drug operations are just some of the challenges facing law enforcement across the region as police also struggle with the fallout from the COVID-19 travel restrictions. That’s without the headache confronting local investigators who are working out how to extradite a woman who was arrested in New

THE 2020 LOCKDOWN

Crimes and arrests as public information helps police

Zealand for the alleged murder of a man at Elong Elong in 2016. While the vast majority of Dubbo’s population is following social distancing guidelines and staying at home unless absolutely necessary, police say the criminal element is still at work. Orana Mid-Western inspector Dan Skelly said police are just getting on with the job. “We’ve still got our job to do, it’s

business as usual, we’re still performing a full range of duties because we have to ensure we keep the community safe, but we are taking precautions,” Inspector Skelly told Dubbo Photo News. He said most people are “doing the right thing” and following the current restrictions. “We’ve only issued a couple of infringements in the local area regarding people not doing the right thing, we have

a high degree of discretion but sometimes people are belligerent so they’ll get a ticket – we do need to enforce the law. “The people who commit crimes are still going about their business, they’re not worrying, we had an aggravated break and enter a few nights ago, and some people won’t care about their own health or the health of others,” he said.

EMERGENCY REPORT ❱ P18

DUBBO, and other regional areas like ours, could see the strict coronavirus rules relaxed sooner than the big cities. Member for the Dubbo electorate Dugald Saunders confirmed with Dubbo Photo News that discussions around how this would work are already underway. “I completely understand the thought of trying to relax restrictions in our region earlier than larger Metro areas, and it’s something I’ve spoken to the Deputy Premier about,” he said. “I think many people are looking for ways to bring us back to a more ‘normal’ way of life, and we all want that.” According to the Western NSW Local Health District, there had been no new confirmed COVID-19 cases in the Dubbo Regional Local Government Area since April 6, as at the time Dubbo Photo News went to press yesterday. Mr Saunders said decisions would be made in accordance with health authorities and it’s likely some limitations would remain in place. “Discussions around how that could work are happening, but any changes would have to be based on the best health advice, with some restrictions still needed, including on people travelling in from outside areas,” he said. “That said, I’m hoping there can be a way forward soon to support the economy in regional areas like ours.” Mayor of the Dubbo region Ben Shields commended the Dubbo community on their commitment to social distancing, saying that is how the region has avoided a “large-scale outbreak”. Mr Shields added, “Any decision to relax restrictions should be made by health authorities, not politicians, and shouldn’t put the good outcomes achieved so far at risk.”

IN BRIEF

Terrabella Bridge to get B-Double rating ONE of the area’s most unworkable bridges will be replaced after long-awaited state government funding for the project was announced. Dubbo Regional Council will receive $2.716 million to replace the Terrabella Bridge as part of the NSW Government’s Fixing Country Roads program. The older-style timber bridge that crosses the Little River south of Geurie has long been a bottleneck for local transport movement, particularly for farmers with oversize machinery. The State funding will complement $700,000 pledged to Council for the project by the Federal Government. “This is an important project for the agricultural sector as it will improve freight connectivity, particularly for farmers and stock producers in this area,” Dubbo MP Mr Saunders said.

Kidney health could be your issue By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY DEAN McDonald spends up to six hours at a time, three days a week, on a dialysis machine at Dubbo Hospital, so it’s no surprise he’s a dedicated advocate for getting tested. “It could be anyone who has kidney issues. Just because you look healthy doesn’t mean you are. If you saw me, or a few of the people who get dialysed, you wouldn’t think there was anything wrong with them. On the other hand, when people are unwell, they’re buggered,” Mr McDonald said. “I was reasonably healthy. I didn’t believe I even had an issue until after I was diagnosed because I was still in good health. If you don’t get tested you’re potentially a walking time bomb,” the 44-year-old Dubbo man said. “There were no indicators. In hindsight, I can probably associate some minor health issues, but hindsight’s 20/20 vision. “Things like gout. I could probably put it down to lack of kidney function, ie. unable to get rid of toxins out of your body, but I don’t know. It could just be coincidental.” Mr McDonald was in his 30s when he was first diagnosed and at that time didn’t need dialysis. “I went into denial because I was not unwell. Then I got re-diagnosed when I was about 41, and I took it a bit more seriously.” While properly addressing his

body’s needs now, he still refuses to let his chronic condition stop him from living life to the fullest. “I don’t let it hold me back. Certainly some people are very limited in what they are able to do. I’ve been on overseas holidays and done dialyses overseas. I won’t let this illness stop me. “I still work full time where a lot of people aren’t able to do that. My employer has been obliging and I can work remotely even when I’m in the chair at the hos-

pital,” he said. The impact of COVID-19 is widely being felt by locals with kidney health issues. One patient had his kidney transplant operation at Royal Prince Alfred Hospital postponed when elective surgery in NSW ceased. What doesn’t change is the reliance on affordable treatments which in turn rely on community support through fundraising events. The Big Red Kidney Walks, Kid-

ney Kar Rally and the Kidney Kids Camp have all been postponed until 2021. The Big Red Kidney Buses which offer mobile dialysis services for holiday makers in Mildura and Port Macquarie have been cancelled.

DUBBO’S EMPTY EASTER By LYDIA PEDRANA ON a weekend that would usually be bustling with visitors, Dubbo resembled a ghost town. The Easter long weekend is historically one of the busiest periods for the region, but with the current COVID-19 pandemic, the gates to our iconic tourist attractions were shut, motels were empty and local residents followed government orders to #StayHome. According to data from the Dubbo Regional Council, last year approximately 59,600 visitors flooded into town in April. Local accommodation providers in Dubbo were at approximately 76 per cent occupancy, while Wellington was around 59 per cent and surrounding regions at 67 per cent occupancy. Mayor of the Dubbo Region Ben Shields said the loss of tourism over the Easter period was substantial and there is no doubt the coronavirus outbreak has already had a significant impact on the local economy. “Typically, April has been a very strong month for tourism in the Dubbo Region and there has been strong growth in recent years, with visitations to major tourism attractions and Visitor Information Centres increasing by 63 per cent between 2017 and 2018, and a further 28 per cent increase between 2018 and 2019,” he told Dubbo Photo News. “This is another blow for local businesses who have been dealing with the ongoing impacts of the drought and are now seeing a steep decline in demand due to social distancing.” Murray Gilchrist, the owner of Orana Motel on Cobra Street, would ordinarily be fully booked out at Easter. While he is still trading, with incredibly strict coronavirus procedures in place, just two of his rooms were occupied last weekend. “It’s awful,” Mr Gilchrist said. “But it’s just the way it is, you can’t do much about it.” Understanding it will be a while

before things return to normal, Mr Gilchrist is using the down time to renovate the motel, hoping his business makes it out the other side. Taronga Western Plains Zoo (TWPZ) would normally see more than 7000 visitors through its gates over Easter, but last weekend, it was zero. Similarly, in April 2019, the Old Dubbo Gaol saw 6596 visitations, but this April there were none. Director of TWPZ Steve Hinks said the impact of the temporary closure on the Zoo has been “huge”. “Tourism is a large contributor to the local economy, so not being able to welcome visitors to the region at this traditionally busy time has a big economic impact,” he said. “We are, however, committed to following the guidance of the State and Federal Government and our health professionals to

ensure we support all efforts to protect our communities during this unprecedented time.” Mr Hinks hopes that when things do return to normal again, Dubbo and the Zoo are high on people’s to-do list. “When it is safe for the Zoo to reopen there will hopefully be an opportunity to provide a much-needed boost to the local economy through tourism and so many different businesses will benefit from this,” he said. “Especially with the national borders set to remain closed for some time, family holiday desti-

nations like Dubbo could be very sought after for a weekend away or holiday which is a positive opportunity for us and the region.” Mr Shields and the DRC are also looking ahead, working out ways to attract visitors back to the region once the pandemic eases. “The challenge now is to work out how we can get people coming back to Dubbo once the social distancing restrictions are relaxed or removed,” he said. “October is traditionally another busy tourism period for the Dubbo Region, and while it is difficult to know what circumstanc-

es will be in October, if people are allowed to travel again, there may be the opportunity for people to come and visit. “Council marketing staff are working hard behind the scenes and have been keeping in touch with the local Destination Network and looking at ways to ensure the Dubbo Region is in people’s minds when they are ready to holiday after this pandemic.” In the meantime, Mr Shields said he was impressed at how so many local businesses had pivoted to adapt to the current climate, encouraging the community to continue showing their support where they can. “We know that there are going to be hundreds of jobs losses across our region throughout this disaster, but we are in this together so I would ask that everyone prioritise local providers where possible, and if you are able to, consider spending an extra $50 a week on food services, to help that important industry survive through this,” he said. “Every dollar that is spent locally during this pandemic will help keep people in jobs and will also make it easier for the local economy to recover once it is all over.”

Dubbo MP calls out fuel companies on high prices

Vital meal delivery services to help seniors isolating at home

By JOHN RYAN

FOLLOWING last week’s Dubbo Photo News report on local business owner Wayne Gilbert calling on Dubbo MP Dugald Saunders to get tough on fuel companies charging exorbitant prices, Mr Saunders this week made a public call for fuel retailers in the region to do the right thing by consumers and reduce prices. Mr Saunders said decreased demand for fuel worldwide because of the COVID-19 pandemic had caused terminal gate prices in Australia to plummet to their lowest levels in years, but said some retailers have not been passing on these savings at the bowser, despite having a couple of weeks to

do so. “There is often a gap between when retailers get fuel at a lower price and when we see a change at the bowser, and that makes sense,” Mr Saunders said “But there is clearly a need for some of the larger companies at certain retail locations to do what needs to be done, and that’s drop their prices.” He said in some cases fuel businesses have been through the most difficult time on record over the past few years due to drought, but maintains there is enough of a margin now to keep everyone happy. “There’s no doubt some of the prices have been falling, mostly

led by the independents, but that has also highlighted a few cases of absolute rorting by some of the major companies,” Mr Saunders said. In Dubbo on Tuesday, the price of Unleaded 91 fuel ranged from 114.9 cents per litre through to 126.9. In Narromine the prices were more settled around the 115.9 mark, Mudgee ranged from 119.9 to 125.9, and in Wellington the prices were between 121.9 and 124.9. “I would encourage locals to make any complaints online through the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC),” Mr Saunders said. Dubbo bobcat operator Wayne Gilbert said he and his busi-

ness have had no choice but to pay the high price of fuel in recent months. He said while he’s pleased Mr Saunders has acted, the MP has been far too slow to act for the benefit of his constituents. “Why did it take so long for our local member to speak up and stand up for the people who elected him to this job,” Mr Gilbert said after seeing Mr Saunder’s Tuesday press release. “Apparently it wasn’t an important issue, but only days ago when a Queensland politician came out and publicly made a stand and stood up for his people, we now get a reaction from Dugald – the Nats are supposed to be for the rural community, it doesn’t seem that way anymore,” he said.

Society I was already feeling the financial punch that was about to take place,” Mr Rendell said. “24 hours later, I was contacted by the main RAS event co-ordinator Jodie Sayre and was told they were going to honour this contract even though the losses on show set-up by itself would be in the tens of millions of dollars. “They wanted to make sure that

I, as one of their 300-plus priority suppliers, would have their contracts honoured,” he said. Normally around 830,000 people visit the Sydney Royal each year to watch as 35,000 entrants compete in multiple events and categories to be the best of the best in Australia. It’s the largest of the RAS’s major events and the biggest show in the Southern Hemisphere. Last week Wilson Towing trucked the finished products to Sydney, and Matt Rendell said Craig Wilson offered a good rate to help all concerned. “It was surreal, to be driving through Olympic Park knowing that this very day there were meant to be more than 60,000 people enjoying the show, but rather, it was a ghost town,” Mr Rendell said. “It was very saddening to see, knowing that this show is such a massive highlight for so many people from country NSW and Australia.” On drop-off they were met by Jodie Sayre who manages more than 1500 staff and volunteers when the show is up and running. “She met us at the stores shed and offered to unload the truck with us – I was very much taken back by such humility,” Mr Rendell said. “It was such a strong statement of character and integrity. Honouring the contract and rolling up the sleeves to unload a fully laden delivery truck, this is the spirit of the Royal Easter show.”

ROYAL EASTER SHOW KEEPS ITS WORD By JOHN RYAN

ONE Dubbo sole trader is thankful he wasn’t left in the lurch after Sydney’s Royal Easter Show was cancelled for just the second time in 197 years. The ‘Royal’ was established in 1823 to service the burgeoning city of Sydney. The last time it was called off was in 1917, during World War I, as the Spanish Flu pandemic swept across the world. The 2020 Show has been cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic. Dubbo carpenter Matt Rendell is the city’s specialist Upcycler and has been working under contract with the Royal Agricultural Society (RES) for the past four years, specialising in custom-made, upcycled, recycled and one-off unique pieces required by the show for several different pavilions and activities hosted at the Sydney Olympic Park. “Over the last four years, we have made over 200 unique pieces,” Mr Rendell told Dubbo Photo News. The constructs included kids’ farming interactive pieces, two-metre high sandwich boards, bench seats, a fake stables facade where kids role-play attending horses, minion cars, giant flowers full of pollen, and a custom-de-

signed upcycled, flatpacked sheep shed that looked 120 years old. “I’ve felt it an honour to be able to have this contract of supply, being able to source, reuse and supply quality unique pieces from country NSW to the Sydney show. “Thus far, we’ve upcycled nearly 8000 metres (8km) of timber from right here in Dubbo,” he said. The 2020 ‘Royal’ was cancelled while Mr Rendell was 80 per cent through the constructing and finishing of this year’s giant order. “When I received the official email from the Royal Agricultural

VITAL meal delivery services are the focus of a recent coalition government funding package to support our senior Australians. Meals on Wheels and similar services will be reinforced and prioritised, as senior residents across the country are urged to follow COVID-19 restrictions and stay home. “Older members of our community are extremely vulnerable at the moment and I urge my constituents to be mindful of those around you who may be doing it tough right now,” Member for Parkes Mark Coulton said. The National Cabinet’s advice for self-isolation, particularly for those aged over 70, will mean more people need support from community food programs. “A $59.3 million injection will ensure more prepared meals, food staples and essential daily items are delivered to those who need them most. “In total, $50 million will fund 3.4 million meals for 41,000 people for six weeks – the equivalent of two meals a day. “The remaining $9.3 million will be used to buy 36,000 emergency food supplies boxes,” Mr Coulton said. The support package will prioritise home delivery for senior Australians registered with My Aged Care, ensuring direct access to grocery suppliers via online and phone ordering. Ensure the availability of prepared meals and essentials services, with an extra $50 million to support aged care providers, and with more flexibility for the Commonwealth Home Support Programme (CHSP). The package will support working with supermarkets and commercial providers which have been supporting airlines and the entertainment industry and now have spare capacity – to support Meals on Wheels services.

Emmanuel Care op shop closed, now selling online

Working on the future of manufacturing in Australia By JOHN RYAN JAMES Barton is currently home from University because all classes have gone online, but he’s already having a stellar year. Mr Barton is one of seven students from the University of Wollongong to win a prestigious Young Technologists Scholarship awarded by the Westpac Scholars Trust, as well as a scholarship from the George Alexander Foundation. He is studying a Bachelor of Mechatronics Engineering and intends to work out the best ways advanced technology can help to improve lives. “I find the use of Computer Numerical Control (CNC) fascinating and believe that it is the future of manufacturing in Australia, and across the world,” Mr Barton said. “I am also interested by the ability to reduce the risk to human life in harsh or dangerous environments using robotics more effectively. “To me, the Westpac Young Technologists Scholarship is an opportunity to make change in the community through networks and friendships with other passionate young people.” The Westpac Young Technol-

ogists Scholarship is valued at $15,000 over three years, but beyond the financial support the scholarship includes a Disruptive Leaders Program – a one-week residential program in Singapore in 2021. Recipients will also have access to industry and university mentors, internships, ongoing leadership development opportunities, and exposure to new and diverse networks. As a country kid, James Barton wants to highlight to other students from the regions just how many similar opportunities are out there. “There are so many available and make sure that you apply for as many as you are eligible for,” he said. “Back yourself and have a go. Not all scholarships are awarded on the basis of academic achievement,” he added.

Mr Barton attributes some of his success to being well-rounded in senior school, not just studying all the time, and believes it was important to have a job and participate in community activities which for him included the Australian Army Cadets in Dubbo. “I attended an interview with the Scholarships board and it’s important to them that you can conduct yourself professionally. They like a broader outlook than just what you have done at school,” he said. “Year 11 and 12 are about hard work and setting yourself up for your future. “But I really think it’s important to have a good time as well, spend time with your mates, go out and have fun, and try and balance school with everything else. “ Scott Barton is James’ dad and said the family couldn’t be more proud.

James Barton’s achievements: z James was the winner of former Member for Dubbo Troy Grant’s Soapbox Challenge public speaking competition for two years running in 2017 and 2018; z Active member of the Australian Army Cadets for six years (235ACU in Dubbo); z Attended St Johns College Dubbo for Years 10-12, ﬁnished Year 12 in 2019. z Accepted an early entry offer to study Bachelor of Mechatronics Engineering at University of Wollongong (UOW) in October 2019; z Awarded a Westpac Young Technologists Scholarship at UOW; z April 1, 2020 – awarded a George Alexander Foundation Scholarship at UOW.

“Whilst the financial aspect of these scholarships is really helpful in reducing the financial burden of uni, it’s the additional benefits of mentoring, travel, internships and so on that are so valuable in building a career,” Scott Barton said. Mum Mel agrees and said it’s been incredibly exciting to watch James grow at uni. “We all try not to live through our kids but it is so rewarding when things go well for them,” she said. “We are so grateful to all the teachers at St Johns College who really went above and beyond to support the kids during Year 12. “It was a very positive year – he worked hard (but not too hard!) and managed to have a great time as well. These scholarships are a fitting reward.”

EMMANUEL Care Centre, which raises funds to support women’s shelters in Dubbo, have closed their Talbragar Street Op Shop but are selling online via Facebook. They will still receive donations via their Brisbane Street office opposite the Dubbo RSL Club main entrance. Please note donations are only being accepted, Tuesday and Wednesday mornings. They also wish to advise the public they are open for welfare, food parcels and household goods, at 177 Brisbane St on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday at 10:30am to 12:30pm, and 1:30pm to 3pm. These services will be by phone interview only with pick up outside the front door. Call to discuss if EAPA vouchers are, or are not, available via phone interview which will allow Emmanuel Care to assist with electricity and gas bills. For further information, call 68826755.

ADVERTORIAL

Dubbo Dental seeing emergency patients only Dubbo Dental wishes to advise that due to the COVID-19 Pandemic their hours have temporarily changed and are now, 9am to 5pm Monday to Friday, however due to regulations set by the Australian Dental Association they can only see emergency patients at this time. Should you need emergency assistance you will be cared for by a highly qualified team including the newest dental professional and team member Dr. Elizabeth Armitage, Dubbo Dental owner, Dr. Ryan Heggie and Dr. Sophie Halpin. Dr. Armitage was born and bred in Dubbo, is a lover of horses, country music, and has a passion for adventure and the outdoors. She studied dentistry at Charles Sturt University before moving away to practise and looks forward to returning home to provide the best possible dental care to her new patients. “I’m passionate about oral health promotion and prevention and striving to ensure my patients understand the important association between oral health and general health,” she said. Dr. Armitage believes developing long term relationships with her patients is of utmost importance to facilitate optimum outcomes and the best possible smiles. She strives to maintain a relaxing environment for both young and old patients to ensure a comfortable stress-free experience every time. Dubbo Dental first opened its doors in January 2019. “The public have responded very warmly

since we opened! Most people seem to appreciate the modern and different look and feel to our practice, and our attempt to create a more relaxed environment,” Dr. Heggie said.

Technology also sets Dubbo Dental apart and which allows the team to plan and place implants, email a crown preparation off to the laboratory, and even predict the outcome of orthodontic treatment before it starts. “Another very exciting addition to the practice is 3D X-Ray technology. This allows us to see things we previously had to guess, like the curvature in the root of a wisdom tooth and how it relates to the nerves, a crack in the root of a tooth that doesn’t show up in 2D imaging, the exact location of an impacted canine, or the location of the elusive fourth root canal in an upper first molar. “In implant procedures it allows precise mapping of the jaw bones so that the optimum implant size can be placed with a high level of accuracy. All of which means better outcomes for patients,” Dr. Heggie said. Dubbo Dental’s chairs also feature built-in intraoral cameras, integrated implant functions and the latest technology in endodontics. “I wanted this practice to be innovative in terms of ergonomics and comfort, provide a welcoming atmosphere for clients and an enjoyable workplace for staff,” Dr. Heggie said.

The board of Orana Early Childhood Intervention has recognised the long-term dedication and devotion of Mrs Nola Honeysett by making her a Patron. The announcement was made at the organisation’s Annual General Meeting on March 17. Mrs Honeysett ﬁrst became involved in the Centre some 32 years ago when her family decided to give the centre a donation. At that time, she was asked to go on the fundraising committee and the rest is history. In 2018 Nola resigned her

position from the Board and handed over the reins after serving 20 years as a Board Member, 12 years in an executive position and eight years as Chairperson. The Board felt it only ﬁtting that the signiﬁcant contribution made by Nola over the years should be recognised and would like to congratulate and thank her for the hard work and support that she has given to Orana Early Childhood Intervention. There is no doubt that the Centre would not be where it is today without people like

Nola Honeysett. Jane Diffey, who now chairs the organisation’s board, said Nola’s contribution has been awe-inspiring. "Nola has been an incredible asset to Orana Early Childhood Intervention,” Mrs Diffey said. “It is an honour to be able to recognise her contribution in such a way.” She described Mrs Honeysett’s dedication to the Centre as being “invaluable”, adding that Nola had also made similar contributions to many other organisations.

Adopt From Home scheme spikes By LYDIA PEDRANA STAYING at home advice has prompted a surge in the demand for pet adoptions. Local dog breeder Ashley Howlett said the demand for puppies has skyrocketed since the coronavirus hit Australia. “I have probably seen even more demand than Christmas sales,” she told Dubbo Photo News. “Everyone is thinking it’s the perfect time to raise a puppy being stuck indoors for about six months’ time, and it’ll keep the kids occupied, I guess.” Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) has paused its adoption services at the Wellington Pound and Dubbo City Animal Shelter as a result of measures to reduce face-to-face contact. The shelters are however sending adoption-eligible animals for rehoming, to rescue groups like RSPCA NSW which has also closed its shelters and care centres but introduced an online adoption process, reporting a 28 per cent rise with more than 500 animals adopted across the state in the last two weeks. “We have seen so many animals go into their forever homes, and we hope they’re bringing you some much needed love, warmth

and company,” says RSPCA NSW CEO Steve Coleman. “We are adapting to the changes as best we can to give our animals an opportunity to find loving homes, and to ensure our doors are still open for animals in need.” The RSPCA “Adopt from Home” initiative came into effect after the Federal Government introduced strict social distancing measures to limit the spread of COVID-19. Understanding why people are choosing to indulge in a pet at this time, Dubbo veterinarian Ross Pedrana said the community needs to be aware of the longterm responsibilities. “Think ahead about what are you going to do when things get back to some sort of normality; who’s going to look after the puppy when you return to work, and so on,” Dr Pedrana said. “I just want to encourage responsible pet ownership.” Dubbo residents can still retrieve lost or stray pets by a strict 30-minute appointment. “We’re also encouraging people to place surrendered animals in the overnight pens, as rangers may not be able to attend in person,” said DRC CEO Michael McMahon.

SOCIAL DISTANCING

Not horsing around with drive-through service

WHERE ON GOOGLE EARTH ? Where in Australia is shown in this satellite image? Clue: This capital city sits on a bay; Cox Peninsula is to the left; Channel Island is also there. ANSWER: SEE OUR TV+ GUIDE

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY THE last couple of weeks have seen businesses nationwide scramble to adjust to new social distancing measures but Horseland Dubbo owner Robert Barton was quick to adapt to ensure staff and customers remained safe. “There’s a few options for customers buying from either Horseland or PetExtra. They can use the drive through service or if people are more comfortable, they can still drive into our Horseland Town and Country car park and can make a phone call,” he said. “We can transact with a card over the phone or we can bring the Eftpos machine out to them and they do it from their car. We still take cash, we’ve got gloves and spray. “We’ve tried to meet every demand that customers require and ensure everyone’s safe at the same time.” Phoning first saves a lot of time for both out-of-towners and Dubbo residents too. “We can do an order up, have it out there packed up ready to go, and we load it. Locals have got that choice too, if they just ring, from their kitchen or wherever they are. We put the name on the docket. Then they drive through, we ask their name and put it in their car,” Mr Barton said. Top priority is everyone’s safety including staff. “We’ve altered our working hours to allow for two shifts per

day of two people. At the end of the shift we wipe everything down, including the phones, the whole lot. Then the B team, as I call them, comes in from 1 o’clock til 5.30. If one happens to catch it, we’re not all in contact and hopefully we can maintain the business flow.” Sadly, he says some people are still not getting the message.

Changed traffic conditions ABOUT 70 movements of truck and trailer combinations will disrupt traffic on the Newell Highway at Dusty’s Creek this month, eight kilometres north of Gilgandra, as part of early works for new northbound and southbound overtaking lanes being built at Pilliga, 15 kilometres north of Coonabarabran.

Gravel delivering trucks will be entering the highway at Dusty’s Creek between 7am and 6pm on weekdays, weather permitting, until Friday, April 24. The speed limits will 80km/h at Dusty’s Creek. Traffic control and speed limit reductions of 40km/h and 60km/h will apply at Pilliga.

“Some people are tending to want to come in and we advise them not to, please. We’ll service them from their car. It makes it a little frustrating but it’s not a personal thing at all. It’s something we’ve got to respect and respect everyone, and visa versa,” Mr Barton said. Horseland carries a range of casual and horse-riding wear

which can be purchased without entering the store. “That just takes planning. It’s a bit hard but we try to get their size over the phone. We bring what they want, let’s say it’s a shirt for example, out to a customer’s car, they have a look at it, and if they want it, we do the transaction and put it in their car for them. It’s hard but we try.”

Online safety advice for parents DUBBO parents can help keep their children safe online by referring to a new guide which has specific tips and advice to manage the risks kids can face online. Families being being required to keep their children at home provides a good opportunity for parents to start the online safety chat with their kids, according to Federal Member for Parkes Mark Coulton.

“To read the guide, simply search for ‘COVID-19 Global Safety Advice for Parents and Carers’,” Mr Coulton suggested. The government’s own eSafety website www.esafety.gov.au has top tips for parents in protecting their kids online include using parental controls in apps and devices, setting time limits for using devices during non-school hours, and more.

NSW Maritime wants people to avoid flocking to NSW waterways, crowding boat ramps, causing social distancing problems in the same way that was experienced on NSW beaches, requiring their closure. NSW Government advice requires everyone in the community to practise social distancing and stay at home wherever possible to help slow the spread of COVID-19. “(These school holidays) are traditionally a popular time for boating in NSW, but it is important to know that at this time, packing up your boat for a road trip and a half day fishing expedition is not in the spirit of the restrictions. This is about everyone doing their bit to save lives,” Alex Barrell from NSW Maritime said. The NSW Government has also reminded people that all non-essential travel to regional areas and remote communities must be cancelled.

IT’S A RECORD! Imagine jumping out of a hot air balloon 7400 metres (yes, that’s more than 7km) above land, into winds that reach a speed of up to 400 km/h. That’s what Swiss skydiver Marc Hauser did in an experiment to perform the ﬁrst skydive into the jet stream. Hauser’s record attempt, which took place at Forbes, NSW, took several months to plan with his small team.

Corona-crisis highlights there’s too much red tape for business By JOHN RYAN RED tape needs to be slashed for small business when things return to normal, according to Dubbo Sportspower owner Anthony Barnes. His business has survived droughts, floods and now faces the challenge of the coronavirus crisis, a pandemic which he says has illustrated just how enslaved governments have become to unnecessary red tape. He hopes the current crisis will lead to a new and simpler way of doing things. “There’s definitely a lot of red tape for small business,” Mr Barnes told Dubbo Photo News, pointing out the excessive hours business operators such as him have to spend on reporting. “We are an unpaid tax collector for the government, we have to submit all the taxes for all the wages, and all the GST.” He said there’s no acknowledgement by the government of all the workload that small businesses have to cover. “Cutting red tape would be an absolute advantage, it would take some of the pressure off small business operators who have to be everything in their business. They have to wear several hats, from being a salesperson to being a purchasing officer, a Human Resources manager, an accountant. “(There are already too many) things we have to pull together to be multi-skilled, so to have another layer of red tape on top does make it difficult – that’s probably a conversation for when we get past this coronavirus,” he said. Mr Barnes is also keen to see state and federal governments

start mapping out an exit strategy for the immediate post-crisis period because he believes it’s not just going to be a simple snap-back into activity but rather a slow ramping up. “We are going to need assistance during that period of time,” he said.

He’s also been concerned at mixed messaging from governments and says that language is vitally important to ensure the correct messages are communicated to a traumatised general public. He said the term “social distancing” is a misnomer, and that

the lack of accurate language to describe what the nation is going through is causing unnecessary problems. “The communication and language should be around physical distancing, because socially we want to keep connected; we need to keep connected for our own

mental health to our friends, to our family,” he said. “But what we’re talking about here is space – it needs to be ‘physically distancing’, so that should be the language that we use to get the message through to people that they need to stay oneand-a-half metres apart. “I still want to talk to you, but I don’t want you in my face, so keep your distance, because physical distancing is the key and that’s the language which should be used, not socially distancing, in my opinion.” While the CBD is sparsely populated with shoppers and his business has taken a big hit, Mr Barnes says he’s lucky that keeping fit and occupied is regarded as essential during the semi-lockdown restrictions. “The government’s been pretty clear that people do need to get out and exercise for your own mental health and physical well-being, so we’re finding that people are coming in and getting sports clothing, shoes and equipment to be able to do that sort of stuff,” Mr Barnes said. “Be as social as you can be but as active as you can be, whether it’s connecting with friends on Facetime or Zoom, but other than that, keep moving, be active – otherwise there’ll be a very large risk that the inactivity will cause a lot of weight issues down the track for a lot of people. “The other good thing about exercise is that it does give you that mental break from your routine. “If you’re working from home or staying at home, it does give you a bit of endorphin release and a bit of energy, it has a positive effect on the body and the mind,” he said.

Drive-thrus working well in pandemic RETAIL By JOHN RYAN MAJOR multinational takeaway companies have demonstrated a massive advantage over smaller local food businesses which don’t have that drive-through option according to PK’s Bakery owner Kelli Kempston. She says it’s just another case of the little bloke being squeezed out and is counting her blessings where PK’s set their business up already had an existing drive-through.

She says it’s like a living insurance policy for pandemics. “It’s allowed people to still come in and support us without having to walk into the bakery and without actually having to get out of their cars,” Mrs Kempston told Dubbo Photo News. “I’ve just had some kids come through, three kids in the back seat all in their pyjamas, little ones and their mum just came through to get some treats for them, so people can do that sort of thing without actually really having to go out. “With no dining and all just takeaway it’s just been great,

it’s always good but now it’s great and it’s getting us new customers, so thank you to all our regulars and all the new customers who are coming through our drive-thru,” she said. With dining-in no longer allowed and many people worried about other people in shops not following social distancing protocols, Mrs Kempston said the ability for people to pick up from their cars was a saving grace. “I think business would be a lot slower without having the drive-through, I really do, because I think people would

have forgotten they could still walk in the front door to get takeaways, or they may have been too apprehensive to come into the shop where there may be other people waiting,” she said, but feels sorry for other local small businesses where drive-through isn’t a possibility. “It’s a great advantage really. People can just zip through; it’s helped a lot. “If you had to build one to react to this situation you wouldn’t be able to get plans in and then pay for construction, you wouldn’t be able to do it at all really.”

Job Counter down – 26 years of stability where the jobs are FOCUS ON FLETCHER’S

By JOHN RYAN

David McMullen Job title? Leading hand at the Fletcher Grain and intermodal Freight Terminal How long have you been at Fletchers? I’ve been at Fletchers for 26 years. What prompted you to apply for a job out here? Due to a drought my role was made redundant with the previous employer. Take us through the different jobs you’ve done since you’ve been here? Fellmongery, salt and pickle shed, wool store, wool tops and currently at the Grain and intermodal freight terminal.

David McMullen has spent 26 years working at Fletcher International and said the stability of the business is crucial to its long term success. There’s a lot of long term employees in the business, why

do you believe that is? Because there has always been stability within the company to maintain employment no matter what the climate throws at the business. Many people say they enjoy the opportunities to move up in the company just by working hard and showing initiative, how important do you think it is to have that sort of culture in a workplace? Very important as it builds a strong team of employees that have the company’s best interest at heart. What’s the best part of your job? Turning up to work in a good environment surrounded by good team mates and facing the challenges of day-to-day work.

JOB SEEKING By LYDIA PEDRANA EACH week we publish the amount of jobs listings on SEEK for the Dubbo region, but this week, that number is considerably lower than usual. Historically, there have been anywhere from 300 to 400 job opportunities for the area advertised, however since the COVID-19 pandemic hit the country, listings have slowly declined. A spokesperson for SEEK confirmed that the drop in new job ads for the Dubbo region is similar to what they are seeing right across Australia, but it’s not all doom and gloom for job hunters. “We have seen firsthand on SEEK just how difficult it is for job seekers at the moment,” the spokesperson said. “The good news is that employment activity hasn’t ground to a halt – there are still some companies out there who

need workers, and in some cases, they need them right now. “This is due to the rapid rise in demand for some services, the need for businesses to bring certain services back to Australian shores, and the improved resource sector.” In the Dubbo region, industries including community services and development, healthcare and medical, mining resources and energy, and trades and services are all still hiring. Furthermore, sectors deemed as ‘essential services’ are also on the hunt for recruits. “Retail organisations are after shelf stackers, supply chain managers, warehousing supervisors and people in distribution such a truckdrivers,” SEEK’s spokesperson added. “There is also a huge demand for aged care workers; this includes roles as drivers, cooks and nurses particularly aged care and general medical, as well as pharmacists.”

DUBBO CHRISTIAN SCHOOL is addressing a shortage of males in community theatre through a drama program that is encouraging young men on to the stage. Drama teacher Sarah Kelly said theatre begins in primary school where it’s a compulsory part of the curriculum. “It plants the seed that theatre is for everyone,” she explained. Mrs Kelly has been involved in a multitude of productions at the school during a 20-year period including Annie, My Fair Lady, Narnia, Pride and Prejudice, Fiddler on the Roof, Anne of Green Gables and the 2020 performance of Westside Story in February. She believes it can be difficult for some youngsters to pursue acting as an extra-curricular activity. “I think there is a stigma associated with the theatre,” she told Dubbo Photo News, explaining that, until recently, it had been difficult to fill male roles in their secondary drama productions. “There were always more girls, there weren’t enough boys to fill the gaps. It’s an ongoing issue. “We are often struggling to fill the male roles and we chose Anne of Green

Gables because there was a gap.” A young man who is now in Year 12 was selected for a role in Anne of Green Gables. He enjoyed it so much that he signed up for Westside Story. “He had a great time so this time he was definitely committed and brought in some other senior boys,” Mrs Kelly said. With the musical centred on two rival gangs, Mrs Kelly said she showed the boys how to have an on-stage fight. “One of the first things I taught them was how to punch someone on stage. They had so much fun. It gave them permission to do something that got out some of their physical energy within the context,” she said. “The mentorship (between the students) was amazing. Just seeing the goodness that came out of it. It’s not about the story or the show.” The pursuit of sport can stand in the way of boys entering the world of drama but Mrs Kelly said they have similar outcomes. “Sport can compete with theatre but they are very compatible. There’s a lot of comparable outcomes.” Mrs Kelly believes that getting the kids involved in performance-based activities is building the culture.

IN BRIEF

SPORTS FOR ALL SEASONS

Work starts on new Sport facility By JOHN RYAN WORK has begun for the Dubbo Indoor Multi Sport facility with local business Barnson beginning land survey work at Charles Sturt University (CSU). The survey data will be integrated into the site master plan which is currently being developed to envisage how a number of different indoor and outdoor sports could be involved in the project. Dubbo MP Dugald Saunders said he’s pleased to see work has started. “The community has certainly been looking forward to seeing some action in regards to this new facility, and this marks a step forward in that direction,” Mr Saunders said. “As part of the next phase we will also be looking to consult and re-engage with local

“Something like Moorambilla Voices has had a lot to do with that – what Michelle (Leonard) is doing is extraordinary. We had so many boys willing to be involved. And they had such a positive experience. Planting the seed early makes all the difference.”

sporting groups to get some genuine feedback on community needs and wants.” The Indoor Multi Sport facility was guaranteed late last year after $10 million from the Drought Stimulus Package was committed to the project – that’s a $23.3 million state government stake so far. The work couldn’t come at a better time, according to Mr Saunders. “With this development now started, I’m hoping it’s an opportunity to look towards some positive news for sporting clubs, which are all dramatically affected by COVID-19 restrictions at this time. “I’ll be continuing to push hard for this project to be built as quickly as possible, to give our clubs something amazing to look forward to.”

BUYER’S DOMAIN founder Nick Viner has called into question the federal government’s Mandatory Code of Conduct for Commercial Leases. “Commercial landlords are being screwed by this. Landlords have been stripped of pre-COVID-19 rights that were protecting their investment’s value, leaving them with the lion’s share of the financial burden through no fault of their own,” Mr Viner said. “The risks should be spread fairly across all stakeholders which should include banks, utility companies, insurance companies, and local Councils. There should be corresponding relief to landlords in respect of all these costs which should be waived or deferred as per the commercial rents,” Mr Viner said.

Cancer Council launches Hope at Home campaign CANCER Council’s Relay For Life has launched an all new initiative, Hope at Home, to enable the community to show their support despite the postponement of Autumn Relay’s due to the high risk to public health currently posed by COVID-19.

The kit, which can be purchased online for $25, contains a hope bag and candle to display at home on Wednesday, April 29. “Here at Cancer Council, we continue to support local people affected by cancer. Cancer patients across NSW need help now more than ever. They need help to get to their treatment or stay nearby. They need emotion-

al support from trained counsellors, clear information about their diagnosis, and access to emergency financial payments. We are excited to launch Hope at Home to bring our Relay and wider community together in these uncertain times while raising vital funds,” Cancer Council NSW Community Relations Coordinator Katherine Bodiczky said.

THE Australian Taxation Office (ATO) is announcing special arrangements this year due to COVID-19 to make it easier for people to claim deductions for working from home. The new arrangement will allow people to claim a rate of 80 cents per hour for all their running expenses for working from home expenses incurred after March 1, 2020. Multiple people living in the same house can claim this new rate. For example, a couple living together could each individually claim the 80 cents per hour rate. The requirement to have a dedicated work from home area has also been removed. “The shortcut method provides a rate of 80 cents per hour and will only require you to keep a record of the number of hours worked from home,” Assistant Commissioner Karen Foat said. This new shortcut arrangement does not prohibit people from making a working from home claim under existing arrangements, where you calculate all or part of your running expenses.

JobKeeper payment to help keep wheels in motion, says Federal Member Some of the cast of Westside Story, the Jets gang. The production was staged by Dubbo Christian School in February. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/EMY LOU z School plays have been suspended because of new social distancing regulations, but just before the new regime came into force Dubbo Christian School ran its version of West Side Story. The school believes it’s fulﬁlling an important social role by staging these sorts of musicals. These photos were taken prior to the current social distancing rules were put in place.

THE Coalition Government’s new JobKeeper wage subsidy will deliver essential assistance for workers in the Parkes electorate at a time when it is needed most, according to Federal Member Mark Coulton. Mr Coulton said the subsidy directly addresses concerns he has heard from small business owners and operators, as well as local employees in his elec-

torate during recent weeks. “This subsidy will support around six million workers around the country who will receive a flat payment of $1500 per fortnight through their employer, before tax,” Mr Coulton said. “We know that COVID-19 is having a significant flow-on impact on our local economy – I’ve been speaking with local

ERASER

The show must go on for musos By NATALIE LEWIS THERE is no way to replace the excitement of seeing your favourite band live but local group Eraser are doing all they can to maintain the momentum of their fan base through various online channels. Restricted by measures of social distancing and the closure of licenced venues around the city due to the spread of COVId-19, music partners Nolan Furnell and Bec Smith are using the internet to keep their audience up-to-date with information about the band. “One of the strategies I am using to keep audience engagement and maintain some momentum is to do fortnightly live streams where I chat about workflow, process, artistic integrity, song-writing, producing – whatever comes up,” Mr Furnell explained. “We are just using Facebook at the moment, engaging the audience we have there. I just think it’s important that bands don’t go AWOL throughout this time. It’s very interactive, I’ve been fortunate to have a small but engaged audience.”

small business and local workers on a regular basis about some of their challenges,” he added. “The $130 billion JobKeeper payment helps to alleviate some of those concerns, by supporting those in work so that we can keep our wheels in motion as much as possible as the COVID-19 pandemic continues.”

Over the Easter weekend, Eraser had planned to be recording new songs at the Dotted Eight Studio. In the current environment, this wasn’t possible. “The restrictions not only excluded the recording but even our rehearsals and writing – we haven’t been able to do much together except work on lyrics using Evernote.” Mr Furnell knows what a difficult time it is for

people at the moment but said it’s important to maintain interests and connectivity. “People‘s attention is, deservedly, elsewhere right now and they may not consider your music a priority for their time and energy, so I think it’s unfair to expect a huge amount of attention. Let’s face it – local music struggles for attention at the best of times. “But for me, it’s about positioning for when normality returns. Keeping

Burrendong Dam emergency pump project now installed

THE NSW Government has confirmed the installation of a WaterNSW drought emergency pump in Burrendong Dam. The pump will be used to supply remnant water out of the Dam if it experiences critically low dam levels again. The pump network and associated operational apparatus has been constructed and commissioned – part of a $6.7 million project that adds 16 gigalitres of precious additional town supply to communities in the drought-affected Macquarie valley. Inflows into Burrendong in April have lifted the storage capacity to above 12 per cent – up from 1.5 per cent in February – so the pumping equipment will be stored on site for future use should the storage again fall to critically low levels. The company installing the equipment, Seymour Whyte, employed local contractors and purchased locally available equipment and materials where possible to deliver the project.

NRMA urges stay home and enjoy backyard camping in touch with people. Using the newfound time to be creative rather than wallowing. And personally ... it’s important to have a focus, a project, connection with people, and something I feel like I can control.” Mr Furnell believes that what they are doing might not be a money-maker but it will help engage fans more effectively. “They are getting a behind-the-scenes look at our journey and the

heart behind it,” he said. “My hope is that a glimpse into the work in progress might inspire a desire to see the finished piece – although it could be six months away now – at best.” Check out Eraser at: www.facebook.com/ eraserau/ and the live stream at tinyurl.com/ t9pckfg Eraser’s new music video, filmed with local actors and filmmakers, is also due for release on April 21.

THE NRMA is asking families to stay home over the current school holidays and instead take part in the NRMA’s virtual Kid’s Club and set up their tent or caravan at home. NRMA Holiday Parks across the country remain closed for all non-essential travel, so managers are warning that those looking for a quick escape from isolation will be told to return home. The NRMA’s Kid’s Club is based on Treasure Island and includes videos, art and craft, competitions, games, tutorials and challenges. “Getting away for the school holidays is sacred time for many families, so we understand many feel disappointed to miss out this year,” NRMA Parks and Resorts CEO Paul Davies said.

FESTIVAL OF 50

ART e-Parties online celebration By NATALIE LEWIS THIS year’s birthday will be special in more ways than one for artist Kim Goldsmith, who will mark her 50th on April 30. Ms Goldsmith (pictured) has chosen that day to launch a new online multi-arts festival platform to present the work of fellow creatives from around the world. “It’s going to present a regional and international lineup of artists including visual artists, photographers, sound and video artists, filmmakers, musicians, performance artists, writers and more – possibly gamers and animators too,” she explained. Ms Goldsmith’s project is called ART e-Parties and is in direct response to the cancellation of multiple events due to the spread of COVID-19. “It only went into planning when all the cancellations were announced. I’d been planning to go to Dark Mofo in Tasmania in June for my 50th.” Ms Goldsmith described the online festival as a ‘birthday present to myself.’ “I’m personally inviting artists and curating the work – so it’s very personal.” Artists in the festival are being encouraged to provide links to their work for sale, commissions and downloads or merchandise.

EMERGENCY REPORT

The Dubbo Photo News column dedicated to the hard work of our emergency services personnel. done an excellent job in containing this situation and safely securing all inmates in their cells. This situation shows they are well trained and capable of dealing with such incidents,” Mr Severin said. CSNSW is investigating the incident. Dubbo Photo News believes Corrective Services sent emergency response units from as far afield as Bathurst and Lithgow to help restore order at the jail. We’ve also been told the fire has damaged more than one pod and that prisoners will need to be transferred. Visits to jails have been suspended because of the current pandemic, which may be creating underlying causes of prisoner unrest.

NEWS OPINION AND ANALYSIS by JOHN RYAN

Breakthrough in alleged murder LOCAL detectives are thrilled after a breakthrough in a long-running case of the alleged murder of a 70-year-old man at Elong Elong in June 2016. About 5.30pm local time last Tuesday, April 7, a 47-year-old woman was arrested by New Zealand Police at a home unit in Auckland. She was taken to Auckland Police Station and processed on a NSW arrest warrant, which relates to the alleged murder. She’s been formally refused bail and is next due to appear at Auckland District Court on Wednesday, April 22. Orana Mid Western detectives will seek her extradition to NSW once travel restrictions under COVID-19 have been rescinded. There are a number of court suppression orders in place regarding this case, so no other details are available at this time.

Super quick police work MOST people are doing the right thing but there are still some local crooks who appear to be taking advantage of the current Coronacrisis, just when most people are doing it very tough. One case in point, police will allege two men broke into a business on Dubbo’s Victoria Street about 2 o’clock Sunday morning, April 12, and stole two motorcycles plus some accessories. Officers attached to Orana Mid-Western Police District were notified and commenced an investigation and were conducting patrols in the area when they spotted two men pushing the motorcycles on Young Street. Both were arrested and taken to Dubbo Police Station. A 37-yearold man was charged with aggravated break and enter dwelling in company steal, possess housebreaking implements, carry cutting weapon upon apprehension, and goods suspected stolen given other not entitled. He was refused bail to appear at Dubbo Local Court. A 41-year-old man was charged with aggravated break and enter dwelling in company steal, and two counts of possess prohibited drug. He was given strict conditional bail and is due to appear at Dubbo Local Court on Thursday, May 28.

and other emergency services personnel who attended the blaze – it could have been a lot worse without such an immediate an overwhelming response.

Wello drugs ANOTHER great result at Wellington stemming from a search warrant police executed on a Marsh Street house back on April 2. Police say they located a significant amount of prohibited drugs at the residence which included methylamphetamine, heroin, cocaine, and MDMA tablets – some of the drugs were located in wall cavities and other hiding places throughout the residence. Along with the drugs police allege a significant amount of cash was located which they suspect was obtained unlawfully. Further investigations resulted in a 35-year-old Wellington man being arrested and charged with numerous drug-related charges including allowing the residence at Marsh Street to be used as a drug premises, possess prohibited drugs, and deal in the proceeds of crime.

Mudgee Bandidos: million-dollar drug bust A SENIOR Bandidos outlaw motorcycle gang (OMCG) member is one of three men charged after police raids on a Coolah farm netted more than $1.65 million of cannabis on Monday, April 13. Acting on information, detectives from State Crime Command’s Drug and Firearms Squad, Strike Force Hyperion, have been investigating drug supply in the central west. Officers located and seized about 250kg of dried cannabis plants, a double-barrelled shot gun, ammunition and dried cannabis from a shed on the property, as well as equipment consistent with the cultivation of cannabis. Three men, aged 21, 45 and 47, were arrested and taken to Dubbo Police Station where they were charged with cultivate prohibited plant (commercial quantity), sup-

ON April 9, Dubbo Photo News broke the story of a flat in Fitzroy Street going up in flames. Now police have charged a man. The drama unfolded at about 3.45pm and when emergency services arrived at the flat which was well alight. Police ordered the total evacuation of the building and located the occupant of the unit standing at the front of the unit block uninjured. The unit where the fire originated was extensively damaged and is now uninhabitable. Police instituted a crime scene and an investigation commenced – that’s now resulted in a 30-year-old Dubbo man, the occupant of the unit damaged by the fire, being arrested and charged with arson.

ply prohibited drug (large commercial quantity) and participate criminal group, contribute criminal activity. Police will allege in court that the men, including the 45-yearold Bandidos OMCG senior member, were involved in the largescale cultivation and supply of cannabis across NSW. The men were refused bail to appear at Orange Local Court. Investigations by the Drug and Firearms Squad are continuing, and further arrests are expected.

Cruel ‘Wello’ theft – World War I medals thieved SOCIAL media went into meltdown last weekend after medals dating back to the First World War were stolen from a Wellington property, two weeks out from ANZAC Day. Police have been told that sometime after 6pm on April 11, two WWI medals, WWI discharge papers, two firearms and cash were stolen from a garden shed on the Montefiores Street property. Two people were asleep in a house on the property at the time of the break-in and were notified after paperwork was recovered nearby by a member of the public. An investigation has commenced and detectives are appealing for anyone with information on the break-in to contact Wellington Police Station on (02) 6840 2099 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000. Police are also reminding the community to ensure firearms are kept in a safe manner as stipulated in the Firearms Act 1996.

‘Wello’ jail riot and fire WHAT’S been described to Dubbo Photo News by correctional insiders as a fire and a riot at Wellington Jail has been downplayed by Corrective Services. A Corrective Services spokeswoman told Dubbo Photo News the incident started about 12.20pm on Saturday, April 11, when a fire alarm was activated in one of the pods. Officers responded and extinguished the cell fire. A number of inmates in two neighbouring pods then refused to follow directions to muster and chemical munitions were deployed. The inmates were secured by 2.30pm without further incident. Corrective Services NSW (CSNSW) Commissioner Peter Severin commended staff for their handling of the incident. “The correctional officers at Wellington have

Hand sanitiser up in flames WITH an increase in the use of hand sanitisers, firies from Dubbo 280 Station are reminding everyone that the ingredients which make up most hand sanitisers are flammable. If you’re planning a barbecue, firefighters are urging everyone to ensure they completely dry their hands after using hand sanitiser, before coming into contact with a naked flame. Personally, I reckon the major risk to Australia in coming decades is the stockpiling of millions of tonnes of toilet paper in suburban homes. If that went up, we’d all be in strife.

Narromine firie 10 CONGRATS to Lucas Walsh who’s clocked up 10 years as a Retained Firefighter with Fire and Rescue NSW (FRNSW) in Narromine. Lucas was appointed as a Retained Firefighter April 1, 2010, and is the grandson of former Narromine FRNSW Captain Robert Hawkins AFSM, great grandson of Cyril Hawkins, and great great grandson of Alfred Hawkins, all former Retained Firefighters with FRNSW. The Narromine Fire Brigade was formed in 1929 by Alfred Hawkins, and the bloodline continues with more than 100 years of combined service from the one amazing family. Due to social distancing, no formal function could be held at this time to recognise Lucas’s achievement. Captain Ewen Jones presented Lucas with his 10 years’ chevrons (two stripes), and a plaque purchased by the Narromine Fire Brigade Social Club at drill on April 6. Well done mate.

Dunedoo fatal charges POLICE have charged a 40-yearold man with dangerous driving causing the deaths of a mum and her baby in a car crash which occurred near Dunedoo last month. Emergency services responded to the crash scene on the Golden Highway on March 18, after a white Holden Caprice sedan and a blue Hyundai i30 hatchback collided head-on. A 26-year-old woman driving the hatchback, and her 11-monthold son who was in the back seat, died at the scene. Three other passengers, two men aged 25 and 29, and a girl, aged two, were injured. The 29-year-old man suffered suspected internal injuries while the driver of the sedan, a 40-yearold man, suffered a suspect fractured ankle. They were air-lifted to Westmead Hospital in a stable condition. The girl was air-lifted to the Children’s Hospital at Westmead in a critical but stable condition with suspected spinal fractures. The younger man was initially taken to Dubbo Hospital and later flown the Royal North Shore Hospital with suspected spinal fractures. Following extensive inquiries by officers attached to the Crash Investigation Unit, a 40-year-old man was served a Future Court Attendance Notice for the offences of dangerous driving occasioning death (two counts), dangerous driving occasioning grievous bodily harm (two counts), negligent driving occasioning death, and negligent driving occasioning grievous bodily harm. He is due to appear in Dubbo Local Court on July 15.

New police EVEN amidst the pandemic, new police are always needed and life throughout the force goes on. Orana Mid-Western scored five probationary constables from the latest crop of new cops.

Social non-distancing

‘DUBBO-ITES’ haven’t been featuring too much when it comes to the non-compliance of social distancing rules, not ones that have been acted on by police, at any rate. But, here’s one example: A 25-year-old man was stopped and searched by police around 2.40am on April 11, on Tink Avenue in South Dubbo. He was allegedly found to be in possession of a knife, housebreaking implements and suspected stolen items and he couldn’t provide police with a reasonable excuse for breaching the current Ministerial directions. He was issued a Penalty Infringement Notice for fail to comply with noticed direction in relation to section 7/8/9 – COVID-19 – Individual. The man was also charged with goods in personal custody suspected being stolen, possess or use a prohibited weapon without permit, possess housebreaking implements, and custody of knife in public place. He was refused bail to appear at Dubbo Local Court. z Send your news tips to Narromine Fire Captain Ewen Jones (left) pre- john.ryan@panscott.com.au senting Lucas Walsh with his 10 years’ chevrons. or 0429 452 245 txt is best

IN BRIEF

Red tape cut to release free flow of sanitiser supplies THE Australian Government Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) has cut the red tape on the manufacturing of hand sanitiser, whilst maintaining strict safety requirements, to bolster supply in Australia. “Many of my constituents would be well aware there is currently high demand for hand sanitiser in our health care system and hospital networks – particularly in rural and regional parts of the country,” Minister for Regional Health and Member for Parkes Mark Coulton said. “The TGA has introduced an urgent legislative instrument and guidance to make it easier for local businesses to manufacture hand sanitiser, for health care facilities as well as for general use. “These changes will make it easier for Australian businesses to produce and supply hand sanitiser to meet rising demand caused by the COVID-19 outbreak,” he said. Further information is available by calling 1800 020 653 or by emailing otc.medicines@health. gov.au

THE National Association for Loss and Grief (NALAG) photo treasure hunt is being done with a difference this year and participants are being urged to upload their photos to an online event. Treasure, Growth and Tomorrow are the themes, with prizes awarded across three different age categories. “There is a total of $600 prizemoney and a People’s Choice prize,” NALAG NSW clinical manager Kerrie Noonan explained. The annual competition runs from April 9 to 24 and is a great way to stay creative and connected at a time when most people are housebound or social isolating from others due to the spread of COVID-19. “We are asking for submissions, we have added categories this year and we want to engage with people of all ages,” Miss Noonan said. The NALAG team is still available to those in need of support, with assistance via

phone or Zoom conversation. “Our volunteers are doing phone support and we can offer Zoom for people who have that capability. We are trying to respond to what the community needs and we are really keen to put it out there and connect with people.” Miss Noonan said that many people might not associate what is happening in the world with the experience of grief yet that is exactly what it is. “The incredible change that we are all experiencing in our lives at the moment is absolutely grief,” she said. “People don’t often think about it that way. “We know that the reason we are doing this is because of COVID-19, it has changed our world and people are dying. And every death is an absolute tragedy. It’s incredibly confronting.” Miss Noonan said that we may be working from home, but we are missing out on social outings to parks and cafes and spending time with friends.

“We are missing play and socialising, coffee with friends. Working from home, we are going to work but we are staring at the screen and talking on the phone. Not having regular face to face communication with people is exhausting.” Miss Noonan’s advice for dealing with this situation is to be kind and stay connected. “We are looking out for each other more. We are sharing more. We are having a cup of tea across the back fence. We need to stay connected. There’s lots of kindness going on. One of the best things we can do for each other is be kind and thoughtful

and staying connected seems essential.” Maintaining personal space, hygiene, sleep patterns and exercise are all important at this time. Trying not to overload on news bulletins and social media updates is also advisable. “Seek support, keep a routine, speak to your kids, talk to friends. If your routine gets out of whack, it’s not so good for your mental health. We have an online grief support enquiry form if you need assistance and volunteers across the state. There are heaps of resources.” Visit nalag.org.au for more information about the service.

MENTAL HEALTH

Opportunity to ‘grow’ through program By NATALIE LEWIS AN organisation committed to changing the lives of people experiencing mental illness is adapting its structure in order to meet current restrictions around direct contact with others. Grow Australia is a community-based mental wellness program where participants usually meet face to face to aid recovery and offer support. “Grow is a peer-oriented, mutual support program where people share their lived experiences through stories of mental health recovery,” Dubbo Grow group organiser Leonie Musgrove told Dubbo Photo News. “Grow also offers personal leadership development within a community of like-minded persons.” Like many other businesses and community groups, Grow has been grounded by the COVID-19 pandemic which has gripped the world. Meetings have gone online, but so far, this has had limited success in terms of connectivity. “Grow meetings are held weekly, with refreshments afterwards and no formal referral necessary,” Mrs Musgrove explained. “Each week we describe how Grow has helped us in a way that everyday people can relate to. We listen to the needs of others we are interacting with and create healthy relationships.” Many groups have started meeting online which is

accessible with a landline phone, mobile phone or a computer. “We are hoping to do the same thing in Dubbo this week if the technology does not let us down,” Mrs Musgrove said. “We have tried to keep members in the loop about what is going on but it is a disadvantage for no meeting to be held at all. The meetings keep everyone in touch which helps relieve feelings of isolation and the negative thinking that can go with that.” Mrs Musgrove said there are also online groups called eGrow that don’t usually meet in person. “They have just recently been introduced. I am not sure how they are going but it is a wonderful opportunity for people who can’t access a local Grow group because of time or distance but when things get back to normal it is recommended to meet in person if you are able.” Mrs Musgrove said Grow changes the lives of people experiencing life challenges through prevention, recovery and maintenance of good mental health. “There is no group professional facilitator and the members run the meeting via a proven agenda. We do have a support worker when guidance is needed.” For more information about the organisation, visit grow.org.au The New South Wales Mental Health Hotline in times of crisis is 1800 011 511.

Family planning clinic introduces telehealth service By LYDIA PEDRANA

Jodie Duggan, director of clinical operations at FPNSW

LOCAL residents can now access reproductive and sexual health services over the phone thanks to Family Planning NSW’s new Telehealth system. The remote service is available for contraception, pregnancy options counselling, asymptomatic sexually transmitted infection screening, medical abortion and gynaecological problems, including

menstrual issues and menopause symptoms. It is hoped this service will take pressure off GPs and other healthcare workers during the current COVID-19 outbreak and encourage those who need reproductive or sexual healthcare assistance to seek help, rather than feeling as if they have to wait it out. Jodie Duggan, director of clinical operations at FPNSW, said reproductive and sex-

ual health care is personal, time-sensitive and absolutely necessary, even amid a global pandemic. “Our telehealth service means that everybody who needs access to this type of healthcare will have it, and it can be conducted safely and remotely,” she said. “If anybody needs to update their pill prescription, has concerns around STIs, is experiencing gynaecologi-

cal issues or needs pregnancy options counselling, we can help.” Face-to-face consultations are still available for those who require them, and they will be conducted in line with NSW Health recommendations for the safety of clients and clinicians. To arrange a telehealth or face-to-face consultation with FPNSW Dubbo clinic, contact 02 6885 1544.

NEWS EXTRA Have sister, will travel – Part 2 By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY LAST week, Dubbo Photo News talked with local Val Clark, currently in self-isolation until Friday, April 10, who travelled to Tenerife to meet a sister not seen for over 50 years, who she’d grown up believing to be her cousin. All travel plans however were changed thanks to COVID-19. This is the story of her journey home. After Val Clark’s time with her long-lost sister Averil Sanders, she and her husband Martin headed to an Airbnb in Cornwall, with plans to house sit in England, Scotland and Geneva and stay at Airbnb’s in Italy, Prague and Lock Ness. “Preoccupied with making the most of our time together with Averil, we hadn’t kept up with the news while in Tenerife, but once in the UK we were bombarded. As European countries closed their borders we said goodbye to our dream of seeing Pompeii and, on March 12, cancelled our booking for Italy and Prague. “I subscribed to Smartraveller. gov.com on my Facebook and my laptop and watched the situation escalate. I’m not a fearful person, I don’t panic, but if flights out of the UK were cancelled and with no relatives to fall back on there, it was better to be off home,” Val said. The second challenge was calling the online agency they’d booked their travel with. “Along with thousands of other people apparently.

CYBER SAFETY

Pssst, wanna buy a watch? By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY OF the $21 million dollars lost to online scammers in Australia, just in January and February this year $4 million fell out of the pockets of over 65s according to statistics from the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission ScamWatch. An increasing number of complaints are being received about scammers falsely selling coro-

navirus-related products online, using fake emails or text messages to try and obtain personal data and sending “phishing” emails or phone calls impersonating the World Health Organisation(WHO), government authorities, and legitimate businesses – including travel agents and telecommunications companies. “Unfortunately, scammers are using the uncertainty around COVID-19, or coronavirus, to take advantage of people,” ACCC deputy chair Delia Rickard said. Under normal circumstances many community colleges in the Dubbo, Orange and Bathurst region offer Telstra sponsored Tech Savvy Seniors classes. Under current restrictions these are not pos-

sible at a time when over 60s, and over 50 Indigenous seniors, are strongly advised to stay home, and rely more and more on the internet to stay in touch. “It’s sad, but the seniors are an easy target for the fraudsters because they’re a lot more trusting and they don’t know what to look for,” Verto CEO Ron Maxwell said. “They don’t understand that they need to be a bit more diligent than what they’ve needed to be in the past, especially in the online environment because there’s some not so nice people out there.” A trainer from Verto offered the following tips for seniors. “Just say NO to clicking links, learn how to outsmart email scams, beware if the email is NOT

Don’t open emails from someone you don’t know or a site you haven’t visited. “Another way the bad guys try to get you is with phony messages from your bank or other financial institution saying there is an alert or problem with your account.

The email address won’t align with the company logo if it’s a scam. An email might say it’s from the Commonwealth Bank but if the email address doesn’t end in @commonwealthbank.com.au for example, but something obscure that’s a clue it’s not genuine. If you don’t know what to look for, you can get caught. Also, NEVER give away personal details. “If it’s too good to be true, then it’s probably not,” Mr Maxwell said.

COUNCIL WATCH Council pleas for public to stop heading to the tip THE number of people paying a visit to the Whylandra Street Waste Facility has significantly increased in recent days, prompting Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) staff to issue an urgent plea to the community, to avoid the risk of spreading COVID-19, and avoid receiving a potential fine under emergency NSW pandemic laws. “A lot of people are finding themselves with much more time at home, but if you feel the urge to do that long overdue clean out, please think carefully before you roll up your sleeves and fill up your trailer and head to the tip,” says Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) Manager Resource Recov-

ery and Efficiency John Wisniewski. Following the announcement under the NSW Government’s, Public Health (COVID-19 Restrictions on Gathering and Movement) Order 2020, that all residents must stay home unless they are attending work or education, shopping for food essentials, exercising or attending medical appointments, DRC is reminding residents that police may not consider a trip to the tip as ‘essential.’ These measures are enforceable by law, and anyone failing to comply faces a maximum penalty of six months’ imprisonment and/or a fine of up to $11,000.

Dumping rubbish illegally will be enforced by police ﬁnes IN addition to police enforced fines, anyone who decides to dump their rubbish illegally instead of just hanging onto it until it’s safer to visit the tip could also be issued a fine for illegal dumping. “Please sit tight and hang onto any unwanted items that can’t be correctly disposed of via your normal household waste, recycling or organic bin collection service,” Dubbo Regional Council’s Manager Resource Recovery and Efficiency, John Wisniewski, said. “If waste is left on the kerb or dumped where it shouldn’t be, it’s

illegal and you can be fined. Let’s work together to ‘Keep it safe’. “Find a suitable corner in the shed, garage or spare room to store your unwanted bits and pieces for responsible disposal when it’s safe to do so. We don’t want you to be fined, and we’ll still be here when the pandemic ends,” he said. Council wants to assure the community that that their services will continue operating, but that can only happen if staff are healthy and safe. Report illegal dumping to www. ridonline.epa.nsw.gov.au or calling 6801 4000.

‘Don’t put tissues in your green organics bin’ DURING the COVID-19 pandemic, residents are asked to please not put their tissues in their green waste organics caddies at this time. When organics waste is delivered to the Dubbo Region-

al Organics Processing Plant (DROPP) at the Whylandra Waste and Recycling Facility, some manual sorting is required to ensure only green waste is present. For the safety of Dubbo Re-

gional Council staff and contractors, such as those pictured, and whose job it is to sort through the city’s organic waste, please dispose of used tissues in the general waste bins. PHOTO: DUBBO REGIONAL COUNCIL

OPINION & ANALYSIS THE TOONS’ VIEWS

Readers speak out in support of owners of damaged business

Emergency Report in Dubbo Photo News last week

LAST week’s Emergency Report in Dubbo Photo News reported on the alleged ram-raid at the Free Choice Tobacconist shop in West Dubbo in the early hours of April 3. Thousands of dollars worth of damage was done to the front of the shop, while the alleged bandits escaped with a few hundred dollars’ worth of cigarettes. If there was a silver lining to this cloud, it was the support expressed for the business owners via our face book page. Here’s a selection of com-

ment, some edited for clarity. + Karen: Seems like everywhere needs to do what IGA South Dubbo has done after it happening to them just weeks ago – install a sandstone block to stop them! Alex: I feel so much for the owner. He is truly such a lovely man. I hope the culprits are found quickly and the full force of the law comes down on them! Donna: This is terrible, and for those saying ‘That’s Dubbo’ – news flash – it happens everywhere. There are plenty of worse

places to be, it’s just a shame that difficult times make some resort to low acts like this. Tracy: That is so shocking. What is wrong with people? I feel just awful for the owners as if things aren’t tough enough already right now. Elizabeth: This Free Choice had been open a few months. The chemist and newsagent both moved out in the last couple of years, and this store provided locals with access to lottery tickets and the like. These shopkeepers are young migrants and, like all Australians, giving life ago.

How sad for them to have this happen. Nathan: Great business owner. He doesn’t deserve this. I will continue to support his business Dianne: I have no words, this is just awful, so much damage done to the shop. Vaishali: I feel so much for Bhaiya and Didi. That is so shocking for me. Sharon: The police have enough on their plate at the moment without these morons! Seriously, times are hard enough. Hope they get caught and dealt with harshly.

Yes China, you will be accountable to the world Yvette AubussonFoley ❚ OPINION

ON Monday, March 23, the Communist Party of China (CCP) formally apologised to Wuhan physician Dr Li Wenliang’s family for arresting him, after he’d raised the alarm on December 12, 2019 (over three months ago), about a “SARS-like” coronavirus, which we now call COVID-19. His crime? So-called “rumourmongering”. Yes, a Master of Medicine can be accused and found guilty of a 14th century law in modern China. Forced to “confess” his “crime”, the 34-year-old returned to work as an ophthalmologist in time to witness COVID-19 decimate the local population, because CCP authorities had left it to spread in the community for 42 days after he’d warned them about it, until January 23 – the day Wuhan went into lockdown. It killed thousands, including 34-year-old hero “whistle blower” Dr Li Wenliang on February 7. He was called a “whistle blower” by the people who saw him exposing the flaws in the CCP because they know they live under a regime where alerting authorities to a deadly virus means you’re a whistle blower. Chinese social media users attacked the CCP in response to the

news of Li’s death and for their attempts to discredit him. Had authorities listened when Dr Li rang alarm bells, and a lockdown enacted immediately, perhaps the world might be in better shape today. As hell slowly rained down on Wuhan however – Italy times 10 – the CCP were also busy with their little PR problem, systematically shutting down Chinese social media sites and the individuals curating them, for that same darned thing, rumourmongering. Once the loudest voices were silenced and their accounts blocked, a new narrative began to emerge. The video of dead children from one family being body bagged together on the floor of a hospital overrun with dead was replaced by images of happy children in floral flocks under fluffy clouds, paying homage to the great leader Xi Jinping. Oh, that’s so much better. Just a little ‘boo boo’.

That new narrative included finger pointing and blaming America, despite the CCP hiding the spread, blaming it on bats and then America. Today, they’re holding street parades for the good job Xi Jinping has done fighting the virus. The first known case (but not ` Patient Zero) has been traced to a Once the loudest voices man who died in Hubei on Novemwere silenced and their ber 17, 2019, which means COVID-19 actually wandered freely in accounts blocked, a Hubei for two months and six days new narrative began to emerge. The video of dead until Wuhan’s lockdown. January 23, 2020, was also the children... was replaced by literal ‘eve’ of a 10-day Spring images of happy children Festival national holiday starting in floral flocks under fluffy the next day, followed the day afclouds, paying homage ter that by Chinese New Year for which millions leave or enter Chito the great leader Xi Jinping... a na to visit family or friends to celebrate, or go home to places like

Italy where 300,000 Chinese work, predominantly in the rag trade. In Italy, fears of catching COVID-19 from the returning Chinese workers and Spring Festival holiday-makers ignited prejudice toward all Chinese. As Italy is the only G7 country which has signed on to China’s Belt and Road initiative, the last thing they wanted was to upset the CCP by appearing to be a “racist” country. To counter the mood, the mayor of Florence in Italy kicked off a social media campaign on February 1 called ‘Hug a Chinese’. The country’s first two cases had only been identified a few days before, namely two Chinese tourists in Rome. In social media speak “it went viral”, in COVID-19 speak “it wouldn’t have helped”. Flights to

and from Wuhan remained open for the economy’s sake. Now, videos of young attractive Chinese people standing in Italian piazzas holding signs that read “I’m not a virus, I’m a human” were probably heart-warming on February 1, but just over two months later, looking back, they’re spine-chilling. I changed my Facebook profile recently to a sketch of Dr Li, circulated on Chinese social media after his death. I’ve attached the add-on of “Stay at Home” which I think Dr Li would want us to do. It’s there to remind me that when COVID-19 is eradicated by lockdowns and/or hopefully a vaccine, and all the disruption to lives are over and we are left to mourn the needless deaths – including all the brave “Dr Li’s” that have died and will die fighting COVID-19 – that I should still be mad. We got in this mess thanks to incompetent government officials who around the world have reacted to the wave of COVID-19 by putting their jobs and agendas before lives, and by convincing themselves there were more important reasons than giving 100 per cent transparency. We are in this situation because of that initial dumbass decision to keep it all hush hush, followed by many more similar decisions by successive governments around the world. Wuhan came out of their twomonth-two-day lockdown on Wednesday, March 25. Be safe and stay home.

A happy shout-out from Indigo to her grandparents

Thumbs Up and big thank you to Rhonda and Beverly for their kindness and care especially the day of my Flu injection appointment.

Thumbs Up from a grateful 91 year old client to Clancy’s service department and John for their assistance and advice to keep me mobile after a ﬂat battery.

Thumbs Up to Robertsons Tyrepower for their service replacing my battery, a job well done.

Thumbs Down to those people who don’t keep their footpaths free of weeds and burrs. Council does a wonderful job keeping our public areas free of weeds but needs our help as weeds can spread from poorly maintained footpaths.

Thumbs Down to shoppers in supermarkets who “have a go” at the staff on the check out when they have exceeded limit purchases. The shopper is in the wrong and it is so unfair to blame the checkout staff, wake up to yourselves and ask the question. Would my mother be proud of my behaviour?

Thanks to Dubbo Photo News reader Amy for sending this very ‘happy’ photo. She wants to send a shoutout to her extended family as everyone does their best to cope with the current social distancing and workingfrom-home requirements. Amy writes: “Here’s a photo of my daughter Indigo Coyle, sending lots of love to her friends and family.”

Thumbs Up to all teachers who are doing an amazing job to support all the children and parents home schooling during this hard time and also to the frontline people doing an amazing job. Well done guys!

MADDI Croft is sending this shout-out to the Year 12 St Johns College 2020 class. Maddi is captain out at the college and thought it would be nice to organise this shout-out for her peers. Maddi said the Year 12 students are all doing it a little tough in such an important year for schooling – as is everyone in the community – but wants all students to remember that times may be tough, but they are tougher!

Thumbs Up to Josh Walkom from Techni Clean Dubbo. He responds to calls promptly, supplies quotes straight away and goes the extra mile when doing the job! My ‘techni-cleaned’ driveway looks great after an oil spill accident!

Thumbs Down to the usual presentation of our town. Lack of garden maintenance at its usual poor level. The millions invested in equipment must be suffering from the COVID19.

Fran Rowe walks along the riverbank every day and says that sort of exercise is important for both mental and physical health. “I do this each day and picked up the habit of the walking sticks walking the Camino Trail a few years ago, it’s the Pilgrims Way in Spain, I didn’t do the lot, just the last leg, 120 kilometres,” Fran told Dubbo Photo News.

St Mary’s misses their kids!

Calare phone check-in service bow operating

Contributed by LEANNE CLARKE, PRINCIPAL ST Mary's Catholic School Wellington staff miss having their students at school. Last week they recorded messages to send to families wishing them a Happy Easter and reminding them to keep staying safe. The fun videos provided staff with a way of connecting to the school families and sending the Easter message home. Years K to 10 students at St Mary's Catholic School are also pictured here having fun at home with their remote learning. The school staff want to give a big shout out to all families, students and teachers in our region from the St Mary's community for the amazing job that they are all doing right now.

FEDERAL Member for Calare Andrew Gee has launched an initiative aimed specifically at supporting residents across the Central West through the coronavirus pandemic. Calare Community Care is a phone check-in service connecting local charities with people experiencing social isolation and others who may need support in additional ways. “To begin with, the main service will be a regular phone check-in for people who are living alone, for seniors, those living in remote locations, or anyone in a vulnerable situation,” Mr Gee said. “It will work like this: you can register yourself (or anyone that you are concerned about – with their permission) to get a regular phone call which will be provided by your local service clubs, like Lions and Rotary and other volunteer groups in the region that are already doing this kind of work. “While there are some positive signs that we are starting to get on top of this insidious disease, there is still a long way to go so we need to keep supporting each other in any way possible,” Mr Gee said. For further information or to register, email andrew.gee.mp@aph.gov. au or call in business hours 02 6361 7138.

AUSTRALIA’S higher education and vocational education providers have been hit hard by the coronavirus crisis and they’ve taken huge funding losses, according to Federal Member for Calare’s Andrew Gee who has welcomed the Australian Government’s $18 billion Higher Education Relief Package. “This package delivers them some funding certainty that I hope will help them get through to the other side of this,” Mr Gee said. There’ll be financial assistance for tertiary short courses, with online course fees from universities and private providers set to be slashed to help Australians retrain. These courses will start at the beginning of May and initially will run for six months, with 20,000 places available in short-term nursing, teaching, health, IT and science courses. Mr Gee said there’ll also be guaranteed funding for universities at current levels, even if there is a fall in domestic student numbers. Tertiary and international education providers will get regulatory fee relief so they can better support domestic and international students, as well as exemptions from loan fees under FEE-HELP and VET Student Loans. Fees charged by the Australian Skills Quality Authority (ASQA), and the Tertiary Education Quality and Standards Agency (TEQSA) will be refunded or waived. There will also be a six-month exemption from the loan fees associated with FEE-HELP and VET Student Loans in the sector in a bid to encourage full-fee paying students to continue their studies despite these difficult times.

WELLINGTON NEWS

A quiet Easter like none before IN line with other western towns Wellington’s streets were quiet over the Easter holidays when they would normally be bustling, spurred on by visitors to the caves and phosphate mine as well as collecting a tourist overflow from centres like Dubbo, Mudgee and Orange. But while it was quiet and locals stayed at home along with the tourists who stayed away, there was still plenty of social-distanced activity happening in town for our Wellington photographer Col Rouse to document. Even when many businesses and attractions are locked down, life must go on. Right: Members of the same household shopping in Smart Dollar in Wellington

BUSINESS GROWTH

Solid monument to the region By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY

DUBBO City Toyota’s new showroom was built when the state was gripped in drought and it says everything about dealer principal David Hayes’ faith in the region’s resilience. “It just shows my personal confidence in the region because it’s a major investment but we’re happy to do it because the region’s so strong and solid,” Mr Hayes told Dubbo Photo News. Seven years in the planning, he had a hand in designing the showroom space which he describes as “non-confrontational”. “It’s very customer friendly. We’re not sitting in offices, we’re sitting in an open showroom, happy to help people get what they came for, rather than trying to sell them something. That’s the atmosphere we’re trying to create.” He said the final stage when David Payne Constructions was physically putting the building together was one of the most challenging. “The thing I’m proudest of is how the team just put up with what we had to do. We had people working in “dongas”, side by side by side, which wouldn’t have met the current social distancing rules by the way. We had many people working in confined spaces. Both our customers and staff understood, they could see the bigger

picture. “I’m very proud to say too, that we employed local builders to do the job and they in turn employed many, many local subcontractors so it’s basically been kept local. They did a great job too,” he said. “I want to thank everyone for their patience through the renovations, and thank David Payne Constructions for the excellent job they did. They stuck to their timeline, they stuck to the budget and we’ve got a great result.” With so many tradespeople in the region, it’s little wonder the Toyota Hilux is one of the dealerships’ best selling models followed closely by the RAV. “The Hilux is certainly our mainstay, but it’s crossed over from just being a work vehicle to also being a family SUV. The hottest new vehicle is the RAV, it’s in high demand. It’s got a bit more room; a family station wagon feel,” Mr Hayes said. While customers are voting with their purchases, feedback from staff and customers about the new Dubbo City Toyota showroom has been “glowing”. “I think it makes a statement about who we are, who Toyota is and who Dubbo City Toyota is and how proud I am of the team. It provides a nice place for both our staff and our customers to interact,” Mr Hayes said.

All in the name of exercise By KEN SMITH A BEAUTIFUL Sunday, with a light breeze and my camera, I decided it was time for some much-needed fresh air and exercise. That all-important exercise was still one of the permitted activities under current social distancing rules.

I covered a fair slice of territory including the South Dubbo Weir Rock Wall and Fish Ramp, Tracker Riley Cycleway, Devil’s Elbow and Troy Bridge, all connected by the now fast flowing and muddy Macquarie River. Along the way, there was plenty to photograph.

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 Artist Salvador Dali had a unique way of occasionally avoiding the bill for drinks and meals – he would draw on the cheques, making them priceless works of art and, therefore, uncashable. z The governor of China’s Hunan Province banned Lewis Carroll’s “Alice in Wonderland” because he believed that animals should not be given the power to use the language of humans, and to put animals and humans on the same level would be “disastrous”. z When the ancient Greeks staged plays, their costumes enabled audiences to identify characters. Tragic actors wore raised platform shoes called buskins to symbolise their superiority over comic actors, who would wear plain socks. z A researcher in Madagascar was

so interested in sand ﬂea development that she let one of the bugs live inside her foot for two months. z U.S. President George Washington died after his doctors removed 40 per cent of his blood over a 12-hour period to cure a throat infection. While critics have claimed for decades that he was bled to death, the exact cause of his demise is still debated among scholars. z The longest time between the births of twin siblings is 87 days. Amy Ann Elliot debuted prematurely on June 1, 2012, and Kate Marie Elliot followed on August 27, at Waterford Regional Hospital in County Waterford, Ireland. z When the mummy of Ramses II was sent to France in the mid1970s, it was issued a passport. Ramses’ occupation? “King (deceased)”!

z In the early stage version of “The Wizard of Oz”, Dorothy’s faithful companion Toto was replaced by a cow named Imogene. z Enjoy looking after kids? Consider attending Sullivan University in the U.S. state of Kentucky, where you can major in nannying.

NOW HERE’S A TIP z Spice racks can pull double duty on the walls by your bathroom mirror. They are the perfect size for toiletries and makeup items. They also work very nicely for nail polish bottles. z “To get the best reading on meat using a meat thermometer, try sticking it in from the side. It can go in further, and to me it feels like I get a better reading than poking it in all over a steak.” – M.E. z Things you can freeze in small

portions using an ice cube tray: tomato paste, coffee, coconut milk, broth or stock, wine, herbed butter or herbed olive oil. z “If you have trouble holding your cat still to clip his claws, sneak up on him while he’s asleep. You might only get a couple done before he catches on and wriggles away, but you’ll get there.” – P.L. (This great tip works for babies, too!) z If you ﬁll a ﬂowerpot with clean sand, you can use it to store your garden hand tools. It looks cute, and they are accessible, too! z “To get the dog to stop eating his food so fast, my daughter puts dry food in a silverware sorter – the plastic insert that holds cutlery in a drawer. Their dogs have to work at it, and it has helped them slow down so they don’t get sick. She can just toss it in the dishwasher to clean, too!” – U.E.

LEAGUE FLASHBACK

Kel Brown – CYMS ﬁrst home grown NSW Blues player By GEOFF MANN IN last week’s look back over the best players to have pulled on a CYMS guernsey I deliberately left out a little bloke who continues to have a huge influence on the Fishies. Kel Brown was a De La Salle junior who played with CYMS as soon as he was allowed. When Ken McMullen took over the club in 1968 the demon tackler caught the eye of the former Eastern Suburbs first grader and Wallaby tourist. Kel had attracted plenty of attention during his early years but now the tiny hooker built on his reputation as a smart distributor from dummy half. He stood up to all the best front rows in the days when the then “No 12s” had to use their feet to rake the ball back and their wits to avoid unwanted attention from opposition hit men! Kel made his debut as a 16 year old in 1964 and was in the Greens’ team that went unbeaten throughout ‘65 before Canowindra pulled off a stunning 19-7 win in the Grand Final at Parkes. Kel moved to hooker in reserve grade in 1966 and became a fixture in the first grade

front row in 1967. He was to play three grand finals with Ken McMullen’s team including the club’s historic first premiership in 1969. Ironically CYMS won as the underdogs against Parkes after going down to Bob Weir’s Narromine who were red-hot favourites the previous year. In 1970 Kel and his teammates were gutted when Tony Slacksmith (ex-Coonamble) and the great Peter Kennedy, engineered Forbes Magpies 7-3 win on a No 1 Oval quagmire. The ginger-haired rake had been picked for Western Division in 1969 and the following year impressed against the great City hooker Elwyn Walters. He came into the NSW team for the third match of the series. The Blues won 34-8 and the Dubbo hooker leveled the scrums 16all against future Test hooker Brain Fitzimmons. NSW was captained by League Immortal Graeme Langlands and included Test stars Mark Harris, Dennis Pittard and John “Pogo” Morgan. Kel was held up by Bob O’Reilly and Jim Morgan, two of the two of the toughest Kangaroo props of all time. The little bloke from Dubbo impressed Eastern Suburbs of-

ficials and signed for the 1971 season. In his first year with the Roosters Kel played 17 first grade games; in 1972 he was alongside Australian captains Ron Coote and Arthur Beetson in the team that fell to Manly in the grand final. Peter Muscat was the club’s leading rake and played in the decider. Injuries cost Kel any opportunity of regaining his place in 1973/74 but his fortunes changed in 1975 when he led Western Suburbs to the Brisbane premiership, a feat they repeated in 1976. 1977 was to be Kel’s last when he returned to join Gilgandra in

No 1 Oval progress By GEOFF MANN Dubbo sport has revolved around Victoria Park forever. The three main ovals have catered for everything from athletics to Zumba exhibitions, the aquatic centre is ever-evolving, there are bowling greens and plenty of passive recreation sites to keep everyone engaged.

Photo News has been plotting the redevelopment of the entire park over the past few years and today we are another step closer to bringing the Queen’s No 1 Oval into the 21st century. The cycle track which has been the training ground for hundreds of country, state and national champions is ﬁrmly entrenched at the soon to expand sporting complex in North

the now defunct Group 14. Kel was the first locally grown CYMS product to represent the State when he ran onto the SCG on Wed August 5, 1970 although former Sydney first grader, Barry Harris played against Queensland while he was with the club in the early 60s. Kel has been one of the driving forces behind CYMS Old Boys who have raised over $200,000 for the club and various charities with their always popular Joker Draws. Like everyone else in the rugby league fraternity he is counting the days until football returns. Kel Brown – one of CYMS’ greatest.

Bulldozers pave way for sports stars. Coaches will be aiming to ﬂatten opposition teams when union and league return; bowlers hope they’re just as destructive next cricket season! PHOTOS: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/KEN SMITH

Dubbo and the excavators have done their work creating a level playing ﬁeld for cricket, AFL and rugby. Ken’s photos capture the next level – stabilisation, placement of permanent post holes and a top-dressed centre wicket square.

GEOFF MANN

MEL POCKNALL

And then there was turf... in “Marco” Bradman’s back yard!

By GEOFF MANN LAST week we brought you photos of the water views local gardeners Mark and Anna Pavan had as they looked from their balcony across the sprawling cricket oval development adjacent to the Lady Cutler Ovals on the riverbank. The contractors and Council staff have taken advantage of the change in weather to literally “roll out the green carpet” for the west’s newest cricket wicket. If you walk, as so many are increasingly doing,

along the banks of the river down the bottom end of Tamworth St or if you are driving along Bligh St, you will be amazed at the neatness of the work. The change from dustbowl to velvet is remarkable! Mark and Anna grew up in a country that traditionally knew no cricket. Little do they know that the greatest batsman of alltime, Sir Donald Bradman’s roots are in “the old country”. The Don’s grandparents were from Genoa! Throw in Joe Scuderi, Mike Veletta, Michael De Venuto, Adam Zampa and

current opener, Joe Burns who is Italo-Australian and there is plenty of history for the Pavan’s to follow up. Maybe next season, Mark and Anna will be regulars on their balcony – or is it “The Don Bradman Stand”, binoculars in hand, with the latest Marylebone Laws of Cricket in hand and a “Beginner’s Guide to Cricket” listening to ABC Grandstand’s coverage of Australia’s national sport. “Come on mate, ‘ave a go ya mug” might well be heard – you’ll recognise it by the accent!

THERE is no more passionate advocate for the welfare of his animals than Dubbo Club President Shayne Stiff so when Greyhounds NSW (GRNSW) announced the temporary closure of 70 per cent of venues across NSW his response was simple – “What do we need to keep our trainers and dogs working?” The answer came from GRNSW Chief Executive Officer, Tony Mestrov – “Implement stringent protocols to ensure the well-being of everyone.” Shayne and his committee went into action straight away. “We are committed to keep racing alive in the west, so we have created the safest possible environment for our staff, stewards, trainers and the lifeblood of our industry, our four-legged champions,” Shane told me with typical enthusiasm. “We are following strict biosecurity guidelines established by GRNSW, including one trainer for every four dogs and a limited number of people at the track on race day.” Shayne says this means for a race meeting there’s a maximum of 40 people. “Even for a larger 12 race meeting there will be less than 50 people at Dawson Park to keep the

sport alive”. Shane sees this as a setback, not a devastating blow. ‘Look when the NSW government shut us down a few years ago that was a catastrophe for greyhound racing but we showed then we are a resilient group and fought to get our beloved animals back on tracks across the state so this is merely a hurdle and not a closed door,” he said determinedly. GRNSW has commissioned 10 tracks across the state in seven strategically located zones outside of Sydney. Dubbo, Gunnedah and Bathurst are the western cluster. “This works well for us because our three clubs know the commitment of our people and we work together to maintain the highest standards”. “Racing in all three forms – greyhounds, gallops and the trots

DUBBO’S Ella Penman is one of four Rising junior athletic stars congratulated on her achievements after being announced as a McDonald’s scholarship winner for 2020 and presented with $500. The 14 year old I’ve labelled the “smiling assassin” has been participating in athletics with Dubbo LAC for the past eight years. This season Ella qualified for the 200m, 400m, 800m,1500m and 3000m events at the 2020 State Track and Field Championships as well as the 4 x 100m senior girls relay team. Ella has represented NSW at national levels in cross country and athletics over the past four years. She also set qualifying times for the 2020 Australian Junior Championships and won six gold medals at the 2020 Region Championships. Unfortunately Ella will not get to compete at State and National titles in the near future but if her training in isolation program continues there is no doubt she is destined for much higher honours. Ella’s father Mark is the Dubbo Club coach.

– pump nearly $86 billion into the economy. There are more than 70,000 people involved across the three codes, with thoroughbreds creating a living for nearly two thirds of those employed. To shut down completely would be a devastating blow, not only workwise but on a social level as well,” Shane noted. “Many of our trainers might only have a few dogs but they are like family to them. These beautiful animals provide companionship and a reason for many of the women and men to get up and exercise them each day. We are especially conscious of our older members and have been up front with them about everything. They understand the benefits of having the strictest protocols in place. They just want to keep racing!” Dawson Park was alive – albeit, minus spectators – on Holy Thurs-

day and there is another meeting today and again next week. “This situation has certainly presented challenges but we will be even better for the changes we’ve had to make,” Shane added. Dubbo is indeed fortunate to have sports administrators and volunteers dedicated to their individual interests, however Shane pointed out, they have a much broader vision. “We are parents and grandparents and want nothing more than our kids and all sportspeople to be back on the fields as soon as it is safe for them to do so. The Council has done a brilliant job restoring all venues after the prolonged drought. The staff deserve praise for their professionalism”. There is plenty of information available on the GRNSW website or follow links from Dubbo Greyhound Racing Club’s Facebook.

z The use of one designated toilet block at race tracks. z Trials to continue at all tracks but these must be booked. This allows separation and still allows greyhounds to trial. There will however be no access to kennels. z Ensuring clubs provide best practice hygiene for both greyhound and participant with stringent cleaning of venues.

RESTRICTIONS As part of the plan to continue racing, GRNSW biosecurity measures have been increased at all venues. These include: z No more than 50 participants will be allowed at the venue at any one time. z No interstate greyhounds or trainers will be permitted to race in NSW. z New protocols to permit a trainer, where appropriate, to leave the

RUGBY LEAGUE

Narromine Jets finalising their Popular Pick team THERE has been plenty of interest across the west as Narromine league supporters throw their two bob’s worth into the best players to ever lace on their boots for the club. Last week’s feature on the Jets plus Macquarie and CYMS drew plenty of comments including the following from Narromine secretary Sally Everett. “I loved the photos. I was a bit teary when I saw my Pop, Ned Dodd with the Dubbo team from 1955. I really miss him! “Pop loved footy and when I told him I was going out with Anthony, he asked me what team he played for. When I told him it was Narromine, he said, that’s okay, if it was one of the others I’d tell you to break up,” Sally laughed. One of the great things about being in isolation is that I now have more time to pursue my love of history about sport in the local area and so I was able to dig out many clippings from Sally’s Pop and share those across the net!

SPORT Dubbo Easter meeting kept alive... in Bathurst! By GEOFF MANN Photos by COFFEE PHOTOGRAPHY DUBBO Harness Racing Club worked with Bathurst to ensure the popular carnival went ahead over Easter. The closure of all the smaller tracks was overcome as the two groups worked closely to ensure a successful venture that incorporated all that would have occurred on our local track – minus spectators. Regular contributor Graham Phipps alerted me to the fact the meeting would go ahead on Saturday night at the foot of Mt Panorama. “In a nice gesture, Bathurst acknowledged Dubbo’s sponsors across the entire card. “To assist with the social distancing protocols for trainers, Dubbo lent Bathurst our saddle cloth racing numbers so they had the extra sets to keep everything sanitised between races. Each club has two sets so ours will ensure

there are no problems as Bathurst will be hosting all the meetings in this area for the foreseeable future,” Graham added. The Happy Easter Pace was a coup for the Hewitts. Bernie trained The Mustang driven by son Doug, beating off the hot favourite Gotta Party Doll (Amanda Turnbull). This race was for horses with the highest National Ratings (NR up to 70). The Dubbo Harness Racing Club Pace was the perfect build-up for Team Hewitt as Bernie trained and Drove Dukkah to victory against $26 chance My Mels Place with Mark Hewitt in the gig. The first race, the Dubbo Caltex Petroleum Pace was taken out by young Mark Hewitt behind Mighty Joe. Doug drove Gemma Hewitt’s horse, Princess Danika into second spot. Amy Rees cashed in on the absence of Hewitts from the Dubbo RSL Club Pace (Race 2) steering Matamua home for Peter Trevor-Jones.
