It’s difficult to choose a cover photo when you want to let everyone know they should be camping this first long weekend out of lockdown, but also want to celebrate International Donut Day on June 5.

So, the team at Dubbo Photo News has managed to get creative and do both.

Dubbo Photo News photographer Emy Harris found out she was the unwitting human model for this week’s front cover when Red Dirt Camping owner, Noel McNair, opted out after spending an hour setting the scene.

“We’ve been busy for the last 10 to 15 days, we’ve had quite a lot of preparation for this weekend,” Mr McNair told Dubbo Photo News.

Mr McNair says many people who used to take it for granted that they could go camping anytime they liked with as many people as they wished, now understand that it’s a privilege and are dying to get out into the bush with their mates.

“Definitely, definitely, people understand why we had to go through what we did, but now that the restrictions are starting to lift, they’re going yeah, it’s time to get out and start spending some money on gear, basically,” he said.

People are buying camp ovens and swags, the odd tent but most of it has been camp ovens, anything cast iron.

“A lot of families, mostly on the weekends we get families. The kids are excited, they’ve had enough of being locked up.”

Enjoy the long weekend and drive safely if you’re travelling.

DRIVER WARNING

TOMORROW’S LEADERS

Police on patrol for long weekend

Online leadership keeps kids learning

POLICE have begun targeting drivers for alcohol and drugs in the lead-up to the Queen’s Birthday long weekend.

Random Breath Testing (RBT) and Roadside Drug Test (RDT) have recommenced across the state after a massive reduction in both procedures last March in line with COVID-19 safety measures.

With the easing of various restrictions since Monday this week (June 1), including increased patronage at licenced premises and higher traffic volumes, frontline police across NSW have resumed proactive stationary testing operations.

Motorists will also see an increased police presence targeting dangerous driver behaviour including speeding, driving while fatigued, seatbelt and helmet compliance, and mobile phone/driver distractions.

WITH four classes, a total of 53 students and five teachers, Dubbo’s Leadership Academy has an ethos of flexibility which has served it well during the recent school restrictions and temporary move to online learning.

Within 48 hours of the NSW Premier’s announcement in March to move to remote schooling, the Academy took all of its classes online with teacher-led learning all day, for all timetabled classes for all year levels.

Principal Mandi Randell said COVID-19 had been a big challenge for the country and that she was proud the Academy staff were able to offer fully teacher-led and student supported learning for all courses from 9.15am to 3.15pm every day of each school term.

The Academy had 100 per cent daily online attendance and students were engaging with their classmates and their teachers via Zoom.

“We offer high quality differentiated learning that is teacher led. That didn’t change with the move to remote learning.”

Ms Randell told Dubbo Photo News the culture of a school allows for it to innovate and change when need arises and that culture is more a factor than size when considering the agility with which an institution can manage change.

“The Academy is future-focused and

harnesses technology to differentiate as daily practice. That is a planned value of ours that we enacted before COVID and that has allowed our staff to innovate for our children’s needs in the face of this change,” she said.

“Children need connection. In smaller schools it may be easier to attain the connection and level of support with lower student/staff ratios.

“Our team of teachers knows and cares for their students well and are able to work together to monitor pastoral care and reach out to parents and families to support them as best we can through this crisis. We never asked our parents to home school; we provided teacher-led remote learning for our students.”

Anna Bloomfield has three children enrolled at the Academy and posted her support on Facebook that her and her husband had been incredibly happy with the transition for all three of their kids to online learning.

“We are confident that the familiar school routine and the ongoing daily one-on-one support from the Academy staff will see the kids through this time with minimal disruption to their education,” Mrs Bloomfield said.

“The Academy are at the top of the game in the education field and we are incredibly grateful to be part of the community. Thoroughly recommend for anyone looking for supported, progressive, exceptional education locally.”

Family love: defending to the death

Above left: The wombat was described as a Terminator-like creature who was intent on killing, and refused to die.

Above right: Kim Ambrose not only had her finger ripped to the bone and pieces gouged out of her legs, she re-broke an ankle which had only just recovered from a previous break.

by JOHN RYAN HIDDEN in the scrub just north of Dubbo, four generations of one family live in a bush sanctuary.

For decades, matriarch Jeanette Ambrose has cared for native animals and birds on the property known as ‘Daybreak Wildlife Sanctuary’ – no woodcutting and no shooting allowed.

The 78-year-old knows the bush and its animals. She hand-reared some of the wombats which played Fatso in the long-running TV series “A Country Practice”.

“I’ve been here for 40 years now and I’ve always had a great love for wildlife and reared many, many animals and birds of all sorts over the years; wombats and all sorts of animals,” Mrs Ambrose told Dubbo Photo News.

“I reared the wombats, the babies, there was always a Fatso and there always had to be extras, I hand-reared them and they were taken from a wildlife park when they were needed. A Country Practice went for many years.”

When daughter Kim called her early one morning from her nearby cabin to say a wombat was wandering around, she said ‘that’s lovely’, thinking it was just another native animal the family could look after – that was until he tried

to get into her house after he’d climbed her verandah.

“He looked up at me and just dived to get past me and I held him for a long time while screaming out to Nazarena my 11-yearold great granddaughter ‘not to let him get you’, and then he started biting me. He’d bite pieces of my leg and so she ran to get help, meanwhile he was biting me up to my knees,” she said.

Daughter Kim heard the screaming and hobbled from her cabin to help, she’d only just had the cast taken off her broken ankle.

The wombat saw her as a vulnerable target.

“As soon as he saw me he immediately charged, he bowled me over and got the backs of my legs,” Kim said, describing her fear that he was closing in on her vital femoral artery.

“I shoved my hand down to protect myself, offering him my hand because I knew he was going to keep gouging. He was near my femoral artery so I had to have the guts to shove my hand down so then he got my finger and bit down until he exposed the bone.”

Kim’s daughter Gemma had been up working until 3am and heard her mother scream.

She rushed out of bed from a dead sleep dressed only in short

pyjamas – not fitting clothing for fighting a wild animal to the death.

“I saw Mum hobbling up and I heard Nan yelling to her to run, then I heard Mum screaming so I cut through the bush and saw Mum on the ground and the wombat on her finger. I picked up a plank of wood and hit him over the back – it was terrifying to hit him and it didn’t effect him,” Gemma said, describing the wombat as having a Terminator-type vibe.

“He just immediately turned around and bowled me over.

“I wasn’t covered up so he started biting my thighs and I was just screaming for my life, I rolled onto my knees to try and get up and he bit me on the bum so many times, all around the backs of my legs.

“I’d crawl along the ground and he just kept chomping again,” she said.

Jeanette said the three of them thought the wombat was unstoppable, and they believed they were all going to die.

“If anyone had weakened, we’d have died, if he’d got to our faces he would have bitten our noses off,” she said.

Kim said she saw red when Gemma was being mauled and acted like only a mother could,

fighting through her own pain and newly re-broken ankle to defend her child.

“I grabbed the shovel. We’d all been mauled so you had to have the guts, I hit him with the shovel and he lunged at me and I fell backwards,” she said.

“To see your own daughter lying there being attacked, my God, it was just a terribly frightening moment, I thought my daughter was going to die.

“Gemma has two other little kiddies, two and three, they’re bush kids and wander around and we were worried that if they’d come down they would have been killed,” she said.

Gemma agreed it was a desperation fight to the death.

“It’s like he knew where to bite, he was in for the kill, he was totally in for the kill,” she said.

Kim hit the wombat with the shovel and fell over backwards.

“After I fell, Mum came out of nowhere with the shovel and hit him to rescue Gemma,” Kim said.

By this time help was finally on the way.

Gemma’s husband works for a US aerospace company, and the family got stranded in Australia when coronavirus restrictions came into force while they were on a visit to see the family. He was

inside one of the houses with his headphones on, working remotely and oblivious to the unfolding drama.

Meanwhile 11-year-old Naz had phoned the ambulance and a neighbour had also been called, and Kim had worked out how to immobilise the beast.

“All of a sudden I understood I had to grab him by the ear and head and lie on his back, it was watching Steve Irwin wrestle crocodiles that made me think of it, then I had both ears and Mum had a grip on his head,” Kim said.

“Mum was the only one with the experience, so we’ve got the two men (Tim the neighbour and Gemma’s husband Khodr) and me to sit on the wombat and hold him down and I yelled to Mum to grab her axe.”

Jeanette grabbed the axe and directed the coup de grace.

“I got the axe and got them all to pull their hands out of the way and move their heads back while I swung it, I gave it two hits, the first one stunned him and even after the second one everyone stayed on him because we were all so terrified,” she said.

Police and ambulance arrived to tend to the wounded, the family say they’re just glad everyone is alive.

TRIVIA TEST

Vale Diane Quade THE St Johns College (SJC) school community is experiencing a deep sadness at the passing of their Year 12 coordinator, Diane Quade.

Mrs Quade had been battling cancer, but her condition had recently deteriorated. The unexpected news of her passing was gently announced to students and staff on Monday last week.

Year 12 students have expressed their love for Mrs Quade by filling the front of her office with flowers.

“I know Diane would have thought that this is too much fuss. She was always selfless, strong and professional in everything she did,” principal Kerry Morris said.

Mrs Quade’s funeral was held last Friday and Year 12 students from the College formed a Guard of Honour with their families.

“It was an opportunity for the College community to farewell Mrs Quade and celebrate her outstanding contribution to St Johns College,” Mrs Morris said.

Since joining the school staff in 1995, Mrs Quade’s career has touched the lives of many staff and students throughout the College community.

“Her personal commitment to Year 12 students and to the success of the College was resolute. We owe so much to her professionally and personally. Diane was an outstanding teacher, leader, mentor, role model to students and staff alike, and a dear friend we all loved,” Mrs Morris said.

Mrs Quade was Year 10 coordinator from 1996 and by 2000, Year 12 coordinator; a position she held to this year.

Her additional roles included organ-

1 2 3

isation of staff to her portfolio, supported senior students as the Stage 6 Careers and Pathways advisor and TAFE VET coordinator.

“Her extensive knowledge of career, university and TAFE opportunities has given the College Year 12 students very successful outcomes from their HSC experience for 21 years,” Mrs Morris said.

“Mrs Quade was a supreme professional, a true friend and a personal support to me. She will be missed terribly and certainly remembered as an extraordinary lady who was admired by her peers as a great leader and mentor.”

Mrs Quade is survived by her husband Michael, and daughter, Georgie.

Flu shot supplies topped up

By LYDIA PEDRANA

Ben Cross from Blooms The Chemist has had his flu vaccine supply replenished after weeks without.

PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/EMY LOU

LOCALS chemists have had their influenza vaccination supplies topped up after a national shortage hit regional towns.

The replenishment comes after this publication reported several Dubbo pharmacies had been stripped of stock for up to three weeks.

Pharmacist and co-owner of Blooms The Chemist in Centro, Ben Cross, said his flu shots arrived late last week after admitting the shortage had been “frustrating”.

“I think we now have an ample supply for pretty much anyone who hasn’t had one yet,” Mr Cross told Dub-

bo Photo News.

“It’s a different one that’s only available for those aged three years and up, but it’s still the same restrictions for us, we can only do from 10 years and above without a prescription.”

Mr Cross said this vaccine was slightly more expensive than previous batches, priced at $24.99 a shot.

The record demand for flu shots this year has trumped previous seasons with TerryWhite Chemmart expecting to vaccinate more Australians this year than the previous two years combined.

Encouragement from the government to get a flu shot amid the COVID-19 pandemic is believed to be the rea-

son behind the increased demand.

In response to the recent short supply, pharmaceutical manufacturer Seqirus Australia will roll out an additional one million doses over the next fortnight, taking the total produced by the company this year to nine million.

The Dubbo Grove Pharmacy on Boundary Road has also received more vaccine after weeks of sending customers wanting the jab to bigger pharmacies.

Pharmacist Nadia Barrett, who is administering the vaccinations at the Dubbo Grove Pharmacy, said people could pop in for the jab on Mondays or Tuesdays for $19.95.

TRADE barriers and subsidies in the European Union, China, Japan and Korea have been shown to reduce net farm incomes in Australia by 15 per cent while meat, wheat and dairy are the most affected sectors, according to an Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics report, released this week.

Federal Agriculture Minister David Littleproud says the report shows farmers “don’t need to rely on handouts to thrive”.

“The Australian Government recognises that investing in agricultural innovation and biosecurity, incentivising biodiversity efforts and opening up trade opportunities are the keys to unlocking growth.

“This report supports our view that removing subsidies actually spurs overall sector growth, increases participation in global markets and the contribution agriculture makes to the economy.”

China is accusing Australia of “secretly” subsiding Australian barley farmers through tax incentives.

China Institute of Contemporary International Relations’ Jiang Yong claims if Australian politicians continue to anger China, China would use more countermeasures besides tariffs to respond.

Mitchell’s Little Ray of Sunshine

By JOHN RYAN

WHEN Dubbo Photo News ran a story on six-year-old Mitchell Ray’s life and death battle with neuroblastoma, the response from our readers was overwhelming.

People were emailing and calling the Dubbo Photo News office asking how they could donate, or help.

Some of the callers were in tears as they talked about how this brave little bloke’s plight had so moved them, and how in awe they were of the entire family who’d had their lives wrenched inside out.

Mum Erin updated Dubbo Photo News on Mitchell’s past couple of weeks: “Mitchell has done so much better than expected. He had to go into theatre as a preparation for his big surgery the following day – the doctors wanted to take a better look at a blood vessel near his spine as there was some fear that they wouldn’t be able to clear the tumour well enough from this vessel, so he went in for an angiogram under anaesthetic,� she said. “He returned to theatre again the following day for his big surgery. Mitchell went into surgery at 9am and at 7.30pm we got the call from his surgeon that he was out and went well. The main cancer has been removed from his abdomen. “I’m not sure of the exact measurements but when the doctor held out his hands to show me

There’s a long way to go but despite ongoing treatments that bring plenty of pain to his tiny body, Mitchell keeps smiling. PHOTO: CONTRIBUTED

how big the tumour filling his body was it was honestly about the size of a pineapple.�

Mrs Ray said he removed over 95 per cent of this main tumour, with Mitchell intubated that first night and in intensive care. “Jeremy stayed by his side all

night, and in fact didn’t leave his side, or sleep, for two nights.

I was there when Mitchell was woken and the tube was removed,� Mrs Ray said. “He was so good, calm, and just wanted to know what all the cords were that attached to

him. The list was pretty impressive with two central lines, three local pain blocks, two cannulas, urinary catheter, chest drain, feeding tube and a huge scar across his chest. “Mitchell made it to surgical ward where he has recovered much quicker and easier than expected, even with a line infection and the need for oxygen.�

The next stage is tandem, high-dose chemo with stem cell transplant, which the family says sounds like the most challenging treatment yet.

If all goes to plan, that treatment should start in the next two weeks and will involve one week of high dose chemo, stem cell transplant and about 6 to 8 weeks in hospital with predicted nasty side effects. “Just as he’s starting to get better he then does that again for a second time,� Mrs Ray said. “We’ll all keep fighting and really appreciate all the wonderful messages of support we’ve been receiving.�

Humans allowed back into zoo Will our future still be wild?

Zoo staff jump for joy as the gates open to the public for the ďŹ rst time in more than two months.

PHOTO: TARONGA WESTERN PLAINS ZOO

By JOHN RYAN WHEN Dubbo’s zoo closed its doors for two days after being hit by a mini cyclone on October 1, 2003, it seemed like the end of the world as school holiday visitors were unable to enter the gates.

A severe storm cut a narrow swath of destruction just to the south of the city, smashing hundreds of trees in its path.

Walking around the zoo as a reporter covering the story, I literally couldn’t take a single step without having to jump over scattered debris from trees.

Now the iconic local attraction has been physically untouched but shut down to the public since close of business on March 25, more than two months ago.

This lockdown has cost the community far more than those two days of zoo closure 17 years ago but just how much will only be able to be analysed in the coming months and years.

The good news is Taronga Western Plains Zoo Dubbo opened its gates to the public on June 1 – last Monday.

Zoo director Steve Hinks said his team had been working tirelessly applying the finishing touches to new safety measures in grounds including the installation of signage to encourage social distancing and hand hygiene, additional hand sanitiser stations throughout the Zoo and undertaking deep cleans of key buildings and amenities. “Whilst the past week has been a busy one preparing to reopen, the wider Zoo team have been working hard during the closure period to complete a number of projects. These projects will improve our guest experience as well as further enhance some of our animal habitats,� Mr Hinks said.

Projects have included significant works at the zoo circuit exit, repainting of all road markings, improvements to the circuit road and parking, resting and re-

generating pasture in some of the paddocks along the circuit, as well as significant progress on The Waterhole and Gateway to Africa precincts. “We think guests will definitely notice the changes we have made as well as how good the zoo looks thanks to the recent rainfall over the past few months,� he said. “Since the announcement that Taronga Western Plains Zoo will be reopening, we have been inundated with enquiries with plenty of demand for both tickets and accommodation.�

Tickets to the zoo are available online only at www.taronga.org.au.

Guests looking to visit Taronga Western Plains Zoo in the month of June will enjoy a discount of 25 per cent off gate prices.

Zoofari Lodge and Savannah Cabins opened on Thursday, June 4, with some changes to the Zoofari Lodge program to ensure social distancing.

Concerns have been raised that Dubbo’s Taronga Western Plains Zoo could see visitor numbers drop because of the new open range zoo that’s been established in Western Sydney, an area where a large per centage of the region’s tourists come from.

Now, major investors have thrown their support behind wildlife tourism, auguring well for the sector’s potential.

Wealth manager Atlas Advisors Australia has acquired a signiďŹ cant stake in the Elanor Wildlife Park Fund which consists of two iconic wildlife park assets: Featherdale Wildlife Park, located in Western Sydney and managed by ENN since 2013, and Mogo Zoo located in Batemans Bay on the NSW South Coast.

Atlas Advisors Australia executive chairman Guy Hedley said the two wildlife parks were core attractions for domestic tourism with a mixture of property and longstanding and proďŹ table business assets.

The Elanor Wildlife Park Fund is the ďŹ rst of its kind in Australia and is looking to capitalise on the growing nature-based tourism industry.

Mr Hedley said parties were looking to add other private zoo and wildlife park assets to the portfolio, claiming nature-based tourism is the fastest

growing sub-sector of the tourism industry in Australia and around the world. “It is the perfect time to invest with nature-based tourism experiencing strong growth and much potential in the industry yet to be realised,� Mr Hedley said. “As our environment comes increasingly under threat, wildlife parks and ecotourism offer residents and tourists the ability to experience, enjoy and learn about wildlife and nature in an animal-friendly and environmentally sustainable way. “These organisations also contribute to building resilient regional economies which generate employment and innovative new experiences and products.�

Mr Hedley said there are around 86 private and 14 public zoos, wildlife parks and sanctuaries across Australia which present further acquisition and consolidation opportunities for the fund. “These are recession-proof assets that align with our strategy to ensure investment is put towards socially and environmentally responsible organisations,� he said. “It also corresponds with investor calls for good corporate citizenship and increasing appetite for socially responsible investing.�

COUNCIL WATCH

Council receives $274,020 to combat pests FUNDING of $274,020 will be used to help combat pest animals and weeds across our drought-affected region.

The Federal funds will enable Dubbo Regional Council to work with rural landowners crippled by the drought to provide assistance to manage control practices of priority weeds including blackberry, serrated tussock and African boxthorn, as well as pest animals including feral pigs, rabbits and wild dogs.

Council’s Natural Resource Officers in conjunction with Central West Local Land Services Officers will identify farmers and rural landowners who require assistance to combat these pests.

Control work will occur through aerial and ground baiting.

IN BRIEF

Smith Family focuses on disadvantaged kids ONE in six Australian children and young people live below the poverty line and rely on children’s education charity, The Smith Family, for ongoing support.

The charity has launched its 2020 Winter Appeal with a target of $4.2 million by June 30, to help keep kids facing enormous social and economic hurdles in life. “Not only has their education been disrupted, but their families may not have been in the best position to support their children’s home learning. This may be due to a lack of access to digital technology, having inadequate learning spaces at home, or parents’ own schooling experiences potentially limiting the educational support they can offer their children,� The Smith Family’s Dr Lisa O’Brien said.

Gee calls for independent audit on Charles Sturt University MINISTER for Decentralisation and Regional Education and Member for Calare Andrew Gee has called for an independent, external audit of Charles Sturt University’s financial position. “Ever since the University announced a decline in revenue of $80 million stating that the majority of this sum is associated with CSU’s international

program, there has been an enormous amount of community concern, rumour and confusion about what it means for the future of regional campuses and jobs,� Mr Gee said in a statement. “While I have now been given varying explanations, nobody from the University has been able to explain with any clarity precisely how that figure

of $80 million could be a direct impact on Charles Sturt University’s bottom line. “For example, most of CSU’s international students (approximately 8,000) appear to be in the capital cities of Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane. As the Prime Minister has stated, 80 per cent of international university students are back in Aus-

tralia studying. We need to find out how those figures translate into an $80 million revenue decline,� he said.

Mr Gee also said it has emerged that CSU took a $16 million deficit into COVID-19, a figure which was apparently included in the $80 million. “This needs to be looked at. The audit would also need to include a pre, dur-

ing and post COVID-19 analysis of the University’s international student enrolments. “We need a full independent, external audit of the University’s position so that everyone knows exactly where CSU stands, and why. This will also allay community concerns and put to rest the continuing rumour, speculation and uncertainty.�

Carers doing it tough as coronavirus crisis drags on CARING for someone with dementia is a 24/7 job so for spouses or adult children in carer roles, getting a break is vitally important to prevent burnout.

COVID-19 restrictions have played havoc with support networks such as short-term respite or home provider support.

“Respite has been hard or non-existent,” Dubbo-based Dementia Australia Dementia Care Navigator Sharon Doyle said.

“There were those that took their loved ones out of respite in fear of them catching COVID-19; there were those whose respite place was closed, such as the Day Centre at CHCS Tony McGrane Place or the CHCS Respite Cottage on Cobborah Rd. “Many carers have been really impacted. Some have just got on as best they could, others cancelled in-home services in fear,” she said.

A new study has confirmed that 60 per cent of carers’ support networks fell away with the onset of COVID-19 restrictions.

Considering official government statistics put the number of carers in Australia looking after someone who needs help with their day-to-day living at 2.65 million people that means at double that number have been doing it tough.

The study also found the number of carers giving over 46 hours of care per week rose by 23 per cent to 50 per cent, without a break.

For Mrs Doyle, continuing support for carers in the community across the western region has been challenging.

“I have had to cancel attendance at several events around the region, for example, the Trangie

DUE to the impacts of COVID-19, Council’s Economic Development and Marketing team is extending its current Destination Partnership Program to ensure that partnering businesses receive value for their investment in destination marketing.

Family Fun Day that was to be held on April 9, and the Wellington Community Services Expo also planned for April.

“I had planned community information sessions to be rolled out over April and May, visiting towns in the wider Dubbo region before the potential winding up of my trial position at the end of June. All these opportunities for community awareness, support and navigation through the Government subsidised aged care system had to be cancelled,” she said.

“Fairly quickly we all learnt to zoom and be tech savvy! There have been My Aged Care and Dementia on-line sessions by the Navigators and Dementia Australia (DA) has many of the education sessions up online as webinars.”

Fortunately, much of the support provided by Mrs Doyle was already done by phone or email.

“So, that of course has continued. I have continued to take referrals, with the added layer of COVID-19 information provision, risk management advice and support. I have been unable to see people face-to-face which is disappointing as many people have a great sense of relief in having someone go to them, especially where carers and loved ones living with dementia are concerned.”

The program and associated marketing campaigns target the visitor, new resident and events markets, with inclusion in printed and digital guides to build destination appeal and encourage visitation and investment.

June 4-10, 2020 Dubbo Photo News IN BRIEF

NSW says, it’s okay to go boating overnight and intrastate THE Boating Industry Association (BIA) welcomed the move by the NSW Government to permit intrastate travel and overnighting from June 1.

BIA president Darren Vaux said the move by NSW would reinvigorate the boating sector which shares much common ground with tourism.

“NSW with this move will join with South Australia, Western Australia and Northern Territory to enable people to travel and stay overnight,” Vaux said. “From rivers, bays, lakes, estuaries, harbours and coastal waters, NSW has a smorgasbord of fabulous waterways on which to enjoy all manner of boating from paddle, power and sail.

In 2018-19 the boating industry in Australia employed more than 28,000 people with more than 14,500 contractors.

The boating industry will continue to support governments in disease control measures and that includes the need to promote COVID-Safe physical distancing and hygiene practice across recreational and commercial vessels which is an important part of containment and recovery.

COTTAGE CRAFT

Sewn for success

By NATALIE LEWIS THE therapeutic qualities of sewing became a business idea for Dubbo seamstress Lyndal Cook, after she was left with a debilitating injury following the birth of her third child.

“I developed a rare bleeding disorder called postpartum-acquired haemophilia and reacted badly to the chemotherapy I had.

I ended up with no feeling in my arm and excruciating pain,” she explained.

Mrs Cook struggled even to change nappies for her daughter.

“I had a little girl and the thing that kicked my bum was that I couldn’t make her a first birthday cake,” she said.

Sewing had always been an interest for the mother of three and she began to make some items to aid her recovery.

One of the tools of the trade helped Mrs Cook to gain more use and functionality in her injured hand.

“I learned to be ambidextrous and use the rotary cutter.

I learned how to hold it, and it helped me to use my hand again.”

Mrs Cook has been sewing since she was six and started her business in 2014.

“I make shopping totes, library bags, scrunchies, custom-made clothes, zipper bags and memory teddy bears. I started making scrunchies before they made a comeback.”

She decided to put her handmade wares on Facebook and quickly sold a lot of items.

“The business went on the One Day Closer to Rain page and sold 80 shopping bags and 14 memory bears,” Mrs Cook recalled.

These days, she has her own page and sews at her own pace.

“I’m now very good on the machine. I haven’t had many injuries,” she laughed.

“I get a lot of feedback about the quality of what I produce. Unless it’s something I’m proud of, I won’t sell it. I don’t see how people can be proud if the finish isn’t there.”

Mrs Cook said her mum was a perfectionist with sewing, and

Lyndal’s spindle is always half full: Lyndal Cook (above) says it’s important to face adversity squarely and do the best you can with the skills you’ve got. PHOTOS: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/EMY LOU

that is how she learned her craft.

“My mum had a sewing machine, my grandma used to do the sewing for DATS (Dubbo Amateur Theatrical Society). She always had her sewing machine set up and was always doing something for someone.

“I have an identical twin Val and we would stay at Gran’s on the weekend and that’s where we got an interest in sewing. When we got to high school, we made our own shorts in the holidays.”

While she studied teaching at university, Mrs Cook now enjoys her craft making memorable products for people.

“I do pride myself. I’m a one-person business so I try to give myself extra time to finish projects.

My health isn’t so good.”

Two of Mrs Cook’s children also have conditions which impact on their lives and wellbeing and need to be effectively managed.

“My eldest has muscular dystrophy. My youngest has Type 1 Diabetes,” she explained.

Their ongoing care resulted in Mrs Cook’s recognition as the recipient of the Women Out West Outstanding Carer Award in 2016.

It can’t be an easy task managing motherhood with her cottage industry but Mrs Cook takes it all in her stride. She’s a night owl and works a lot in the evenings when she needs to check on her daughter’s blood sugar levels during the night.

“It gives me something, contributes to the family. When I go to the markets, the kids help me. I set it up by myself, they help me pack up. The oldest children helped with the threads and cords.

“I try to give myself extra time with everything. I focus on what I can do rather than what I can’t.”

IT’S A RECORD! A pair of Nike Air Jordan 1s have become the most expensive trainers (sneakers) sold at auction, fetching $US560,000 ($A855,990) at an online auction held by Sotheby’s on May 17. The Nike Air Jordan 1s were game-worn by Michael Jordan in 1985 after being made exclusively for the legendary NBA Chicago Bulls player. Despite being expected to fetch $100,000 to $150,000, the bidding increased by $300,000 within the final 20 minutes of the sale, taking the total up to a record-breaking amount.

CAREERS

A Kase in point – Farrier’s a great career

By JOHN RYAN

AT 21, Kace Potter says he’s got the ideal life.

He went through Dubbo Public School before spending four years at Dubbo College South Campus, leaving after Year 10 to start his apprenticeship as a farrier.

“I started my apprenticeship when I was 16, in 2015. It’s a fouryear apprenticeship, you do most of your time under a farrier and once every month for three days you go to Scone in the Hunter Valley for TAFE,” Mr Potter said.

“We make shoes, shoe horses, study anatomy, all that, for the first three years. The last year is just with your employer, so that’s a Cert III,” Mr Potter told Dubbo Photo News.

He says it’s important to him that he did a formal apprenticeship under a top farrier, to hone a range of skills learning on the job.

“Farriers can do it where they just do the TAFE side and get their certificate but as an apprentice you get to spend a lot of time every day under different types of horses and you always have someone there explaining to you and helping you, so I think you come out a lot better off.

“I was lucky, I did my time in the Hunter Valley and the fella I worked for took an apprentice every year to America for the International Hoof Care Summit, so I got to go to Cincinnati in Ohio in January 2018, and heard lec-

tures from vets, farriers, anything equine from all around the world.

“I had a really good employer and he’d put a lot of apprentices through before me and he’d done his time in the Hunter Valley under a man called Billy Neville and he was one of the greats in the Hunter, so I was pretty lucky doing my time there,” Mr Potter said.

One challenge of the job he feels is often overlooked is the relationships you need to form with the owners of the horses being worked on or looked after, rather than just the physical and mental state of the horses themselves.

With owners often valuing their horses seemingly more than themselves, he said it’s vital to have good people skills.

“We always used to say as a joke that shoeing a horse was easy, it’s dealing with the people, that’s the joke in the trade, but if you’re a phenomenal farrier and you’re not a people-person, you’ll definitely struggle,” Mr Potter said.

“Probably 90 per cent of the trade is working with clientele, communication with them and they have to trust you, especially when they value their horse so much. They have to feel trust and confidence that you’re going to do right by their horse, so it’s very important.

“It’s a good job, I meet a lot of people, I get to stay physically fit

Monster Signs owner Dave Petty says the industry is a great one to join if you have a flair for the creative and enjoy the challenge of different work every day.

and am always travelling round so there’s a lot of advantages to being a farrier, it’s a really good trade,” he said.

He said farriers are a dying breed but the demand for their skills was incredibly strong, and he believes most people don’t understand just how much economic activity and jobs are created by the equine industry across all its forms.

He also believes a major barrier for those starting out is the work associated with actually running their own businesses, a problem across all trades where young people having a crack on their own have to learn all about bookwork, GST, superannuation, insurance; a daunting prospect when they’ve already got their actual work to occupy so much of their time.

“Yeah, that is one of the big things you’ve got to learn when you come out of your time. I didn’t finish school, I only went to Year 10 so I didn’t have a real look at business studies and things like that and throughout my apprenticeship I learnt more of the practical and not a great deal about running a business, so that’s one of the things I’ve sort of had to take on by myself and learn how to do all that, but you learn along the way,” he said.

“That’s probably the hardest thing for young farriers, would be learning the business side of things.”

Kace Potter says he’s doing the job he loves every day, surrounded by horses and the people who care for them. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS

OPPORTUNITY

Signwrite your own job application

By JOHN RYAN MONSTER Signs is a small family-run and focused signwriting business in Dubbo and the company logo often seems all-pervasive.

Owner Dave Petty says at the end of last year the on-going drought saw a definite downturn in revenue, and the COVID-19 lockdown has been the unwanted icing on the cake.

“We were very lucky to have some great loyal clients and business associates to help us through the new year, but even the industry and essential services in Dubbo couldn't cope with shut downs directly and indirectly, so we saw a month where we primarily worked on small projects and cleaned the shop,” Mr Petty told Dubbo Photo News.

Now the firm is on the hunt for a first-year apprentice who has an affinity for what’s essentially a creative and hands-on industry.

Mr Petty believes it’s all about a person's attitude for the role of signwriting apprentice.

“They need to be an easy-going type of person with good listening skills and able to put the instructions into practice. The job is not very difficult, but there are multiple tasks throughout the day that can be overwhelming for anyone who does not learn on their feet,” he said.

“We would like someone who has had previous customer service experience to show their ability to learn and apply.”

There are some unusual innate skills, abilities and commitments needed for the role.

A personal attribute like not having any problems working at heights is important for the role as the candidate will assist with installations and this cannot be taught.

“I guess we are looking for someone to fill our last superstar apprentice’s (Sam) shoes as he was a part of our family, and we hope the new person will appreciate our family-orientated work ethics, as Sam did,” Mr Petty said.

The role includes assisting the

workshop manager in the area of sign manufacture (making) and installation in-house and potentially onsite as required, and the candidate will essentially know all the practical areas of sign manufacturing and installation when they finish “Dubbo has been a self-contained industry for the many years we have been operating, probably due to the distance from the major cities,” Mr Petty said, “It has only recently been affected by the ‘outside’ after prolonged exposure to multiple pressures, particularly the lockdowns.”

He says he believes in the underlying economic strength of Dubbo, bolstered by the fact the city services such a large western population who consider it their regional capital.

“I have full confidence the city will bounce back once the COVID-19 shutdowns are over. The distance makes us lucky as people still have to live and eat, creating opportunity for the local industry here to continue to grow.”

Working up a “Thirdst”

By JOHN RYAN STARTING out as one of the company’s first female boners, Renee Black now runs training for new and existing employees at Fletcher International and says it gives her great pleasure to see people go on from that training to achieve great things.

Name: Renee Black Job title: Training Manager How long have you been at Fletcher’s?

Three years this time. This is my third time out here.

What prompted you to apply for a job here?

It was meant to be an in-between job, ‘LOL’, but with all the variety and opportunity of roles, it kept me interested and coming back.

Take us through the different jobs you’ve done since you’ve been here?

I started as a labourer in the cold

boning room, being one of the first girl boners. Went onto QA Officer (Quality Assurance), then into the training office for an administration role and up to training manager.

Tell us about the people you work with, and do you socialise out of work hours?

The direct team I work with are an amazing bunch of people; office staff and trainers are always up for a laugh and work really well together. I’m also involved in our touch football team, not A-grade material as we’ve never won a game but it’s hilarious.

There’s a lot of long-term employees in the business, why do you believe that is?

Job security. It’s hard to get bored here with all the different avenues you can take and grow.

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?

SINCE Monday this week, NSW residents have been able to take a holiday anywhere in NSW, sounding the bounce back for regional tourism providers like Coonabarabran Milroy Observatory’s astronomer and owner Donna Burton. “As we are going only to be doing outside shows, that will make it easy to comply with social distancing. We also did a thorough disinfecting of all public areas and equipment and will wipe down everything between shows, provide sanitiser and request people with cold symptoms not to come, with a full refund policy,� she said.

To make ends meet during the stay at home period, Mrs Burton evolved her outreach astronomy. “I set up a podcast and did Facebook “lives� during the meteor showers, and also operate virtual stargazing sessions for people at home, where they go outside and I talk via Zoom and talk them through what is in the sky, where they are. Also, I became involved in “Skype a Scientist� and have spoken to schools, here and abroad,� she said.

An added bonus to the new found freedoms of NSW travellers, is the fact global emissions were reduced dramatically across the world and

less need for having lights on in cities, have made for better night sky viewing. “My opinion is that it is true – evident in many of the satellite images etc available. Here, we are always dark but friends in some of the bigger centres have commented that they can see more – as I guess less industry means less pollution and fewer places, sports grounds, etc, open at night, definitely mean less light,� she said.

As a member of the Coonabarabran Chamber of Commerce Mrs Burton has observed that COVID-19 impacted the town. “On top of the drought, COVID-19 has had a big impact on businesses in the negative mostly – although some businesses have actually done well thanks to the government impetus payments – but most are suffering,� she said. “Many have tried to become more online and that has been a challenge but a positive for those whose businesses lend itself to it. The community is stronger for it, as people are looking out for each other more and checking up on each other. “But like everywhere else it has been hard for those going through tragedy and not being able to be supported in the way we normally do.

But we are a resilient lot and most

COUNCIL WATCH

NSW Teachers Federation gives Perrottet’s $1000 offer the dunce hat

Applications now open for share in $127,000 community services fund

NSW Teachers Federation president Angelo Gavrieltos has put a red line through NSW Treasurer Dominic Perrottet’s attempt to give public servants a one-off payment of $1000 in return for forgoing a pay rise. “This offer adds insult to injury following the huge amount of work teachers have done to ensure educational continuity for students during this crisis,� Mr Gavrielatos said. “Teachers live in every suburb and town across the state. It is the disposable income of teachers, nurses, police, indeed all public sector workers, that stimulates the economy necessary to create jobs.�

Mr Gavrielatos said TAFE teachers had not had a pay rise since November 2018 despite concluding an agreement with the NSW Government in March 2020, which had not been honoured.

DUBBO Regional Council is inviting community organisations to apply for a share of the $127,727 Community Services Fund allocations for 2020/21.

The fund aims to support projects and programs that deliver social, cultural or environmental benefits for communities throughout the greater Local Government Area.

Mayor Ben Shields said these grants help groups secure a range of resources and deliver value-added services for the community. “We are very lucky to have some amazing community groups in our region, who like many commercial businesses have felt the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Community Services Fund can help these groups continue the great work they do for our community,� Cr Shields said. Applications close June 12.

Message for blokes: get better at getting tested

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY NEW data shows 58 per cent of women have presented themselves to be tested for COVID-19, compared to 42 per cent males. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think, traditionally, Australian men have had a â&#x20AC;&#x153;sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be right mateâ&#x20AC;? approach to their health, which definitely needs to change, and thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no better time to change it than right now,â&#x20AC;? Western NSW Primary Health Network (WNSW PHN) CEO, Andrew Harvey said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;No matter what respiratory complaint anyone across our region has right now, any flu-like symptoms, difficulty breathing, asthma concerns, anything like that, not only will people be tested for COVID-19 at our Respiratory Clinics but theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll also receive expert health advice on their conditionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s management and treatment,â&#x20AC;? Mr Harvey said.

Respiratory Clinics currently established in the WNSW PHN region include Bathurst, Broken Hill, Cobar, Cowra, Dubbo, Mudgee and Orange thanks to a $21m boost from the Federal Government.

Of the 100 respiratory clinics being established by the Federal Government, one is a mobile unit servicing Gunnedah, Narrabri and Boggabri.

The newest GP-led respiratory clinic is a mobile service visiting Gunnedah, Narrabri and Boggabri.

The mobile clinic is being run by Ochre Health and will assess patients who have mild to moderate cold or flu symptoms and test them for COVID-19. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is exciting news for the North West as we continue to strengthen our local capacity in response to the COVID-19 pandemic,â&#x20AC;? Federal Member for Parkes and

Minister for Regional Health Mark Coulton said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Federal Government has been working with local GPs and Aspen Medical â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which has significant health emergency management experience in Australia and overseas â&#x20AC;&#x201C; to roll out the mobile clinic.â&#x20AC;?

Dr John Hall, Ochre Health Director of Medical Services and President of the Rural Doctors Association, said the new mobile clinic has strict infection controls and safety

measures in place to protect staff and patients. He said part of this is a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;no walk-insâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; policy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really important that people make an appointment and follow our teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s instructions when they arrive,â&#x20AC;?

Dr Hall said.

Patients can book online by visiting ochrehealth.com.au/ boggabri and selecting â&#x20AC;&#x153;Respiratory Clinic appointmentsâ&#x20AC;? (this link applies for all three locations), or by phoning the clinic on 02 6760 9765.

EMERGENCY REPORT

NEWS OPINION AND ANALYSIS

by JOHN RYAN

Wellington crooks ICED

THE fallout for plenty of alleged crooks in and around Wellington continues after police seized “millions of dollars” of illicit drugs last Wednesday, May 27. As Dubbo Photo News reported last week, police claim to have smashed a Wellington organised crime syndicate which had links to Sydney and throughout the western region.

Officers raided ten homes in Wellington and five in Sydney, allegedly recovering hundreds of kilograms of drugs including ice, heroin, cocaine and cannabis.

The town’s honest citizens are rejoicing, and many have told Dubbo Photo News it’s like a crushing weight has been lifted off their shoulders.

There’s an interesting dynamic to this mix – many locals have been calling for a 24-hour police station, or at least a round-theclock police presence in the town for years. Yet now, without that facility or those resources, local crime figures have been taken down.

Some residents have told me the situation couldn’t have gotten so out of hand if there had been more cops on the beat, others are just glad it’s happened.

There is one thing the drug busts have shown us – that Wellington’s crime kingpins, able to supply Dubbo and so much of the western region for so long, cannot be allowed to do so again.

In an undercover operation as long-running and sophisticated as this one must have been, anyone who hasn’t yet been scooped up can rest assured they’ve had covert eyes on them.

One step onto the wrong side of the law, and hopefully you’ll be joining your mates behind bars.

So far 33 people have been charged in relation to the operation.

Knives, ute confiscated POLICE have charged one man with illegal hunting and trespass near Nyngan.

About 1.20pm on Sunday, May 31, police had a report that two men were trespassing on a property on Pangee Road when their white Toyota Hilux became bogged.

The two men had left the location on foot with dogs when they were approached by employees on the property. Police attended and

Dozens of people were questioned during the operation in Wellington last Wednesday morning, with police keen for that assistance from members of the public.

seized the Toyota, allegedly finding three knives during a search of the vehicle.

Following enquiries, a 24-yearold man attended Nyngan Police Station where he was arrested and charged with ‘enter private land to hunt animal without owner consent’ and ‘enter agricultural land with hunting dog’.

He was refused bail to appear at Dubbo Local Court.

Central North Police District Commander, Superintendent Andrew Hurst, said it was a great example of reporting a matter in a timely manner to your local uniformed police.

“If any member of the public has information about rural crime offences, contact your local police station or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000,” Supt Hurst said.

The investigation is continuing.

Stolen car crashed in Dubbo POLICE are urging community members to come forward with information after a stolen vehicle was crashed in Sturt Circle at about 2 o’clock on the morning of Monday, June 1.

Police have been told the Holden Rodeo hit a gutter and rolled, before landing on its roof. Two male occupants of the utility crawled out and fled the scene on foot.

Subsequent checks revealed the Rodeo was stolen from a business on Hawthorn Street, Dubbo, earlier that morning.

Narromine unit fire POLICE are investigating the cause of a fire in a block of six units in Narromine on May 31.

Emergency services responded to reports of the fire at 5.22pm and evacuated 11 people while they attacked the blaze.

The fire was contained to the unit in which it started, and noone was injured in the incident.

Fire and Rescue from Narromine, Trangie and Dubbo were on scene as was a Hazmat unit from Dubbo, while Rural Fire Service (RFS) brigades, VRA, police, ambulance and Essential Energy crews also attended.

REPORTING on the daily goings-on of local emergency services is normally fairly simple because you’re distanced from the events, and you don’t know the people involved.

Not in this case.

The 38-year-old man who died in a farm accident at Cathundral last week, on May 28, wasn’t a statistic to me – he was a mate and his brother is one of my best mates.

The event summary reads like so many I’ve reported on over the years – about 4.30pm emergency services were called to a property on Thornton Road, Cathundral, 112km west of Dubbo, after reports a man and woman were unconscious in a water tank storing fertiliser.

Police have been told a 30-yearold woman entered the tank to assist a 38-year-old man, when she collapsed soon after entering.

The woman was treated at the scene by NSW Ambulance paramedics and taken to Trangie Hospital where she was airlifted to Orange Hospital for further treatment. She is reported to be in a stable condition.

It was an incredibly gutsy effort by the woman to try and save a brother, an effort that almost cost her own life. You simply cannot put a price on that sort of loyalty and courage.

The man was declared deceased at the scene.

Detectives attached to Orana Mid-Western Police District attended and have notified SafeWork NSW. A report will be prepared for the Coroner.

That bald set of notes doesn’t begin to even touch on the heartbreak of all concerned, his grieving family, his mates, all the people who appreciated what a cheeky larrikin he was, and whose lives will be forever diminished now he won’t be around to share in the good times, and the bad.

It’s not just the family and friends who are impacted – the emergency services personnel who respond to all manner of catastrophe do so on a daily, weekly and monthly basis, and many suffer Post Traumatic Stress in many forms.

It can take such a bite out of their lives as well – everyone’s different but the cumulative effect for so many people can be incredibly detrimental.

Vale Marty – Rest in Peace mate.

June 2: Thank a First Responder Day

Firefighters evacuated the motel and set up traffic diversions.

Dubbo Photo News has been told the fire had been deemed accidental, with firefighters believing the blaze was sparked in the flue area of the kitchen.

Damage was minor and no-one sustained any significant injuries during the incident.

Geurie highway work MOTORISTS are being advised to take care when travelling near Geurie from next week, with roadworks beginning on the Mitchell Highway in a bid to improve safety.

Work will involve the installation of an additional grate to allow excessive water to drain away more efficiently.

Work will be carried out from Monday, June 9, between 7am and 5pm weekdays, and is expected to take one week to complete, weather permitting.

Traffic control and a reduced speed limit of 40 km/h will be in place for the safety of workers and motorists.

Condo cop assaulted A 41-YEAR-OLD woman has been charged with assault after she allegedly became verbally abusive towards police before throwing a large porcelain dog statue in the direction of a female detective senior constable in Condobolin.

The woman was charged with three counts of ‘assault officer in

execution of duty’, ‘resist officer in execution of duty’ and ‘common assault’.

She was granted strict conditional bail to appear at Parkes Local Court.

COVID-safe venues the focus in regional NSW MAINTAINING social distancing and ensuring Public Health Order compliance at licensed venues will be the focus of a month-long high-visibility policing operation across regional NSW. With the NSW Government easing of restrictions related to gatherings in public places imposed under the Public Health Order from Monday this week (June 1), an extended period of Operation Pariac has commenced and will be conducted until Tuesday, June 30.

Operation Pariac is a high-visibility operation regularly conducted by general duties and specialist licensing police in the Northern, Southern and Western Regions, but will have an altered focus for June 2020.

The operation aims to ensure education and compliance around the Public Health Order conditions, relative to the easing of restrictions in licensed premises.

Police will also be targetting alcohol-related crime, including assaults, anti-social behaviour and public order incidents. z Send your news tips to john.ryan@panscott.com.au or 0429 452 245 txt is best

VOLUNTEER

IN BRIEF

Power outages planned for Tottenham and Tullamore

There’s a job for everyone in the Rural Fire Service

By JOHN RYAN

MARK Walkom is based in Dubbo and manages engineers at a Dutch software company.

Outside work, he’s desperately hoping for a restart of the local soccer competition and in his spare time he’s a volunteer for the Cumboogle Brigade in the Rural Fire Service (RFS) based just out Obley Road past the zoo.

“About two years ago I joined for the social aspect and to help support our immediate, and the larger, Dubbo community. It was also a great opportunity to learn new skills, try out interesting activities and stay fit,” Mr Walkom told Dubbo Photo News.

He says he enjoys attending training, taking the trucks out for maintenance runs, chatting with other members about things they can look at doing around their brigade area to make it safer.

He says the erratic nature of emergency call-outs keeps life as a volunteer firie interesting.

“They can be 12 to 14 hour days, in heat, dust and smoke. It can go from sitting around waiting, to rushing to protect a property, to patrolling an area. You do get to see some amazing country, you’re fed well, and the locals are always super appreciative.

Exhausting and rewarding and worth every minute,” he said.

“There’s basic firefighting skills that everyone gets, from there you can do whatever you want.

Ranging from going inside burning buildings with breathing apparatus, first aid, off road driving, chainsaw skills, logistics and even being dropped out of helicopters into super-remote areas.”

At a guess, Mr Walkom says he probably commits around one month a year to the RFS, the recent fire season saw him do a few five-day deployments as well as some single days.

“Generally though it’d be a day or two a month if you added it all up. It’s really whatever you are able and willing to commit to.”

He said the wildfires which ravaged the eastern states last summer opened a lot of people’s eyes up to the role played by volunteer firefighters, as well as driving home the responsibility everyone needs to have when it comes to personal fire protection measures.

“There’s definitely an image of us racing towards fires or other emergencies, sirens and lights all running, but 90 something per cent of what we do is outside that, and that’s definitely something we try hard to share with anyone

A PLANNED power outage will affect Tottenham, Tullamore and the surrounding area on Sunday, June 14, between 9.00am and 3.30pm.

“During the rescheduled power outage crews will replace seven cross-arms, two insulators and one power pole, along with other maintenance tasks,” Essential Energy’s Central operations manager Bronwyn Sigmund said.

The scheduled works are dependent on suitable weather conditions and may be postponed if the conditions are unfavourable or unforeseen circumstances arise.

Council-produced guides on hold until 2021

Mark Walkom says volunteering can be pretty selfless and is not always recognised, but you do it because it’s the right thing to do, and it makes everyone better for it. And, he says, that’s pretty darn special. PHOTO: CONTRIBUTED.

that’s interested in what we do.”

He’s pleased so many “fantastic” new members have joined the Cumboogle Brigade but says the flipside of that is the current COVID-19 restrictions meant the onboarding has been far more difficult, social-distancing requirements meaning much initial training is far more complex and time-consuming.

“We’re pretty limited with COVID-19 at the moment, there’s no Friday evening social catch-ups, and training has been cancelled.

“Frankly, the lack of social aspects has been the hardest! We still turn out to any 000 calls that we get though, which is probably once a month on average,” Mr

Walkom said.

“Being able to support the community is hugely rewarding.

Learning all the skills opens up a tonne of ideas and potential as well.

“Being out of town means that you help your neighbours in an emergency, but that they will also be there to support you in-kind.

“There’s a pretty massive aspect of paying things forward in that, and using our own privilege, skills and connections to help people, is important to me.

“It’s fun, challenging and rewarding. As much or as little time as you have available makes a huge difference to the people that you care about.

DUBBO Photo News has received a Thumbs Down to Dubbo Regional Council regarding an overgrown section of Cobra Street, opposite Orana Mall.

The reader submitted a photo of the overgrowth, telling Dubbo Photo News it was taken on May 17.

“This area has not been mowed since before Christmas, so the council can’t

blame the COVID-19!” the reader said.

“It certainly does not create a good first impression to visitors coming into Dubbo,” the reader commented.

Dubbo Regional Council’s Liveability director Skye Price advised Dubbo Photo News that council has operation team members exclusively dedicated to mowing throughout the whole of the local government area.

IN BRIEF

Parking officers return to patrolling the city’s CBD DUBBO Regional Council (DRC) has advised motorists that the city’s Parking Patrol Enforcement team has returned to normal enforcement of all areas and parking zones in the local government area.

With Coronavirus (COVID-19) restrictions in place, Council had reduced patrols as there have been fewer vehicles on the road. However there are increasing incidences of people flouting the rules and enforcement officers are warning that they will be fining people caught disregarding the traffic laws.

In particular, parking officers will be patrolling disabled and bus zones where there has been an increased number of motorists choosing to park illegally.

There will be no chances for vehicles found disobeying the signage. Drivers who received a parking infringement can pay it, or request to have it reviewed by going to the NSW Revenue website.

THE community is being warned not to get complacent when it comes to social distancing and hygiene practices as COVID-19 restrictions ease.

As rules began to relax in May, the number of Australians adhering to personal protective measures dipped in comparison to previous months, according to research

by Monash University’s research arm BehaviourWorks.

Data revealed 85 per cent of the population were washing their hands with water for 20 seconds or using hand sanitiser, down from 88 per cent in March, and more than half of respondents (56 per cent) admitted they were not using the Federal Government’s COVIDSafe tracing app.

Chief medical officer for Royal Flying Doctor Service South Eastern Section Dr Randall Greenberg said following the government’s self-protection guidelines were critical in preventing the spread of the virus.

“I think a lot of us are getting a little bit relaxed, if not complacent, and while there’s no known active cases in western New South Wales and no known active cases in Dubbo, but as we have seen by other parts of the country, for examples the abattoir

outbreak in Victoria and the Northwest Hospital in Tasmania, all it takes is one person to come in and unwittingly infect, so we have all got to be very careful,” he told Dubbo Photo News.

Mr Greenberg reinforced the importance staying home if you are showing respiratory symptoms and maintaining a 1.5 metre distance from others but placed extra stress on correct hand washing.

“We know that one of the modes of transmission is yes,

by coughing or breathing in the virus, but one of the other important ways of transmission is called fomites which is where the virus is actually on a surface and we touch that surface and then somehow touch our face or it somehow gets into our system,” he explained.

“That is the reason it is really important to be very vigilant about hand hygiene, so hand rub is now available, it wasn’t for a while, but if you can keep a bit of hand rub

with you, use it frequently and wash your hands frequently.

“Soap and water is as good as a hand rub, if not better, hand rub is good because it’s very mobile, you can keep it in your pocket and use it anywhere, but viruses hate detergent, so soap and water will kill the virus.”

Dr Greenberg also encouraged local residents to download the government’s COVIDSafe app, endorsing it as a vital tracing tool in the case of an outbreak.

“I am delighted to be presenting a $2,500 grant to the Wellington unit, for the purchase of a defibrillator for its medium rescue vehicle,” Mr Saunders said.

“We continually see how hard our emergency service workers fight to keep us safe when disaster strikes, and with a record $1.7 billion budget, they will get every resource they need,” he said.

Library’s living lounge room

By NATALIE LEWIS MACQUARIE Regional Library’s Wellington branch will soon have all the creature comforts of home, thanks to $50,000 allocated under the Federal Government’s Drought Communities Program.

Dubbo Regional Council received $1M which will be used towards five projects, including creating a living lounge room at the newly-reopened Wellington Library.

Macquarie Regional Library manager Kathryn McAlister said the funding will be well-received at the community facility.

“Libraries are vital community infrastructure and this funding is crucial to plans to transform the library space into a living lounge room and create a vibrant and welcoming space for community members and visitors,” she explained to Dubbo Photo News.

Mrs McAlister said the library has proven to be a vital hub dur-

ing the drought for people to gather and utilise the space.

“During the drought, people turned to the library to read, relax and have quiet conversations. The public library is often considered a place of quiet contemplation, and the library has wonderful views... of picturesque Cameron Park.”

Mrs McAlister said the refurbishment will help transform Wellington Library into a more progressive and contemporary space for the public.

“This is part of an overarching plan to provide an aesthetically appealing environment that will enhance community social space,” she said.

As the needs of people change, the library can continue to meet those needs in the future.

“Community expectations have fundamentally changed the way people are using library spaces.

“Changing social and demographic trends... are integral to the future of libraries and the pro-

vision of services and public space.

“Libraries have the ability to change with the social fabric of the community, and this is a great space for people to come.”

The funding will also assist with providing the opportunity to host small events, functions, gatherings and assist small business owners and jobseekers with a

meeting space within the library.

The Federal funding is part of a budget of $259,510 for the upgrade. It is also expected that all projects will be completed by December 31.

In announcing the funding, Member for Calare Andrew Gee said the Wellington projects will be a great boost for the area.

“The Wellington Library is another integral community facility and the planned upgrades will bring new life to this important piece of community infrastructure,” he said.

The facility’s popularity was reflected by 24,870 visits from members of the public during 2018/2019.

NEWS EXTRA A little piece of heaven OPINION, ANALYSIS, FEATURES, DEPTH.

EULOGY

The following is an excerpt from the eulogy of Narromine community leader and Wiradjuri Aboriginal elder, the late Richard “Uncle Dick” Carney, published with kind permission by his loving wife, Aunty Ruth Carney.

COMPASSIONATE, courageous, hardworking and gentle are just a few words to describe Richard Mervyn Carney, better known as Dick.

We honour his life and nurture the fond memories we have all had the privilege of creating them with him.

Born October 20, 1942, into a family with fourteen siblings, Dick was the third eldest son to Bill and Josie Carney. Dick spent most of his early life living in the community of Warren.

Dick’s beginnings invited many trials and tribulations which he learnt to overcome with the guidance of his parents. “Get better, not bitter”, was the advice his mother gifted him from a very young age.

At 15, he began working with his father, as a station hand and jackaroo, at ‘Buttabone Station’. It was here he developed his strong work ethic, values and honesty.

After many years in the work force Dick discovered his love of shearing. He found himself a family in the shearing sheds and it was a passion he shared with his brother Bill.

Shearing was a large part of his life until political movements saw him venture in the Dubbo base hospital linen service.

At the age of 20, during a visit to Narromine, his brother Bill introduced him to the love of his life Ruth who was a fresh 15-year-old.

Bill knew Ruth through her sister Betty.

This famous meeting sparked the love story of a generation.

Dick would often cheekily tell of how he first laid eyes on his love through a car window. He would remind us how he used his elbows to make sure Ruth would not wind up the window so he could have his chance with the beautiful women.

The two were married on August 10, 1963. Dick would often tell how he walked to his ceremony wearing odd socks and he later joked his life had been odd ever since. The two created a prosperous life in the community of Narromine.

The bond and love the couple shared is an inspiration to all who had the chance of witnessing their connection. Together they built a

life surrounded by passion and optimism. When the two star-struck lovers were unable to have children of their own, they embraced the children of the community with open arms and loving hearts, earning the title of Aunty Ruth and Uncle Dick.

Dick drove the preschool bus for 14 years in Narromine. It was more than a job for him, the young faces he would drive to and from school soon took a large part of his heart. He would often tell cheeky and warm-hearted stories of the students. You could see how proud he was of all the students that stepped on and off his bus.

Uncle Dick had created a special bond with his little mate Isaac.

The two were known to have morning tea under the table with a number of races to the clothesline. Dick would always cheat but would always let Isaac order him around. The joyful laughter the two created will forever ring through our minds.

Debutante balls were a huge part of Dick’s life. From being turned away from his first ball to becoming the leading man and lifetime member of the local debutante society. Ruth and Dick have spent a large portion of their lives nurturing the young women being presented to the community.

We have all had the privilege of watching Dick effortlessly twirl Ruth around the dance floor. In

these moments we had the liberty of feeling the bond and connection the two shared.

We all know Uncle Dick and Aunty Ruth to be our local superstars. From a professional play that toured interstate to his written biography. Dick would hide a stash of books or flyers in Ruth’s handbag, always handing them out to new friends he would meet on his traveling expeditions.

Dick would often say how he felt validated and brave telling his story to others. Through his time in the limelight he reinvented himself and inspired so many to be humble and to have courage.

He was a man of many talents; we all fondly remember mostly his love of Charlie Pride and Karaoke. A highlight for Dick was finally receiving the chance to see Charlie and take a picture with him. We all know if there was a Karaoke competition Dick would be there and would take home winnings!

Other passions of Dicks were treating his nieces and nephews to sweets, volunteering at the local museum with Ruth, travelling to see family, NAIDOC activities, mentoring at the local high school, playing solitaire on the computer, making burls, and visiting the Tamworth Country Music Festival every year.

Uncle Dick was a very selfless man who prioritised his family and friends’ needs over his own.

He was known to many as the ‘gentle giant’ his loving nature is one that could not be replicated.

This world has been gifted with Uncle Dick’s compassion and generosity; he will be dearly missed by so many.

We remember the joy he brought to all our lives and we can carry his memory with us knowing his love made us all better people. z Dick Carney Festival: Celebrating the life of Uncle Dick Carney, Saturday, October 24, in Narromine

NEWS EXTRA

F is for ‘Find my truck’ IT’S a common thing for blokes reaching middle age and beyond to look for things that connect them to carefree childhood times and Scott Blanchard is no exception.

Some people chase old-school motorbikes they rode as teenagers, farmers may look for the first tractor their grandfather owned, or someone’s dad may have had a 1963 Chevy that carted all the family and their friends around the place.

Scott Blanchard has one specific target, his dad’s old Ford F-100.

The classic F-Truck spent a lot of time in Dubbo – he’s hoping readers of Dubbo Photo News can help and he has a compelling reason why we should.

Scott told John Ryan about the truck and why finding it means so much to him.

••• My father, Brad Blanchard bought the 1975 model Ford F100 from Griffith about 1980.

At the time we were living in Warren and dad was a builder.

I was only 2 or 3 when he got it and it remains strong in my memories.

I remember as a kid believing it was the biggest and loudest ute I’d ever seen.

Dad called the truck the ‘Green Machine’ due to it being lime green in colour with dark green pinstriping and he used it as his workhorse building and renovating houses in and near Warren.

Dad’s name was written on the sides of the steel tray.

I recall sitting on the middle of the bench seat with my sister while we travelled out to go camping along a river somewhere.

We camped usually at Easter and always with plenty of Mum and Dad’s friends.

I remember it rained once while out camping and when leaving, the noise the ‘Green Machine’ made was fantastic.

It had a 351 V8 engine and an exhaust system that made it roar.

It spun and slid with Dad having great fun rapidly changing gears in the four-on-the-floor gearbox while navigating the muddy tracks to get us out.

I remember numerous times the truck did ‘donuts’ and my sister and I laughing hysterically throughout this drive.

Occasionally being allowed to sit in the back of the ute with friends while Dad drove us around is also a clear memory.

One of these occasions was when Warren township was flooded, and dad deliberately drove quick enough through the floodwater to cause water to spray and soak us kids. It was great fun for all.

In 1984 or ‘85 we moved to Dubbo when dad had joined the police force and no longer had a need for the ‘Green Machine’. He sold it and life went on.

Throughout my childhood and even more so after I got my drivers’ license, the ‘Green Machine’ came up in conversations within the family.

We weren’t a family of revheads, but I know the sound of a big cranky V8 engine is something dad, my brother Chris and I all enjoyed.

The ‘Green Machine’ was regularly referenced in comparison to loud motors and I’m sure was what started my enthusiasm with V8s and their associated exhaust systems.

I live in Wagga Wagga now and am married with a young family of my own.

In March 2020, I was medically discharged from a 17-year career with NSW Police suffering Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).

Now while battling to deal with my injury, I try to regularly reflect on the less challenging times and that often takes me to my childhood and the ‘Green Machine’.

I recently thought it would be nice to know where the truck ended up, so I got as much information from my parents as I could.

It wasn’t much to work with but having been a Detective for the previous 14 years, I thought I’d have a crack at tracking it. I know there’s a fair chance it no longer exists, but the investigation would be good for my curiosity and possibly give me some temporary relief from my PTSD battle.

All I had to work with was dad sold it shortly after moving to Dubbo to a local bricklayer. The registration was also known to be MIA-923.

I commenced the search via the RMS website doing a rego check.

The registration was unknown to the system. I then started making phone calls to Dubbo bricklayers and builders. I was surprised with responses. Quite a few of the older tradies remembered the lime green F100 in town, but everyone knew it wasn’t around now.

Several people made phone calls on my behalf throughout Dubbo to car enthusiasts and mechanic shops. I was appreciative of everyone’s assistance and can honestly say I didn’t expect half the effort people made.

From all these enquiries I had names of possibly every bricklay-

er working in Dubbo in the ‘80s and leads and possible sightings in Brocklehurst, Mendooran, Bathurst, Orange and Broken Hill.

I resorted to the white pages, Google and Facebook to locate and attempt contact with every named bricklayer. I spoke with most and left messages for others. I also eliminated several of the possible sightings through random contact with residents in those areas.

Again, the assistance was incredible, with people travelling to locations and addresses on my behalf.

I eventually got the name of two retired bricklaying brothers, both of whom now live on the north coast. The information was solid, and I believed one of these guys had owned the truck. Contacting either of these guys proved difficult, but I eventually made contact with one of them.

I finally had confirmation the

‘Green Machine’ was purchased from my father by one brother and sold to the other a couple of years later. The truck was then swapped in 1990 for another vehicle and the new unknown owner took it from Dubbo.

Posting requests for help on Buy, Swap and Sell pages on Facebook is where my search is currently at.

With the amount of interest and assistance I’ve gotten so far, I’m encouraged and believe I’ll eventually track the ‘Green Machine’ to its end and hopefully it’s still a truck.

If I do find the truck, I’d like to see it, if possible, drive it and maybe even own it.

But until then, the distraction of the search and the help strangers have given is a pleasant and encouraging relief.

SOLAR FARMS

Resident asks where are the jobs for locals

By NATALIE LEWIS A WELLINGTON woman* who has witnessed the town’s decline since her childhood is disappointed by developers moving into the area and not hiring local people.

The lady, who is a full-time carer, has been helping family and friends apply for work at new solar farms under development including Photon Energy’s latest Suntop project, AGL’s Wellington North Solar Plant and Sterling and Wilson’s Wellington Solar Farm.

“It’s really deteriorated from when I was growing up here.

There’s no work here. I was helping others to fill in applications for friends and family and spent hours filling in applications only to find out that they have backpackers out there.

“The jobs there are labourers and trades but they are not hiring anyone from Wellington.”

The resident explained that solar farm roles had been advertised

by Workpac Group before being placed with the local Sureway, an agency that assists jobseekers registered with Centrelink.

“Sureway took over from Workpac and started advertising in November. It was delayed until March. Sureway said it was delayed but it’s not on hold, they are

out there working. They started working at the end of April.”

The local woman is upset that, to her knowledge, Wellington people have not been hired as labourers for the project. Extra trades people and services are also needed from Wellington.

“The majority of this town are on Centrelink benefits but some of them are desperate and want to work,” she said.

“So far every application has been put off by Sureway. It’s wrong and it makes me angry. It’s very, very disappointing. They (the solar farms) said they would support jobs.”

However, it is believed that labourer jobs have not become available yet as Continuum Recruitment is currently advertising on Indeed for a range of solar farm roles including plant operators, a QA/QC Manager and an Electrical Supervisor.

Photon Energy is currently developing several large-scale solar PV projects across NSW. Their website features a community engagement page ‘in order to be as close as possible to residents and keep them informed.’

“We have set up this to interact with residents, hear their questions and potential concerns and inform

them about all possible aspects of the project and solar energy in general.”

There is also an email and phone number listed for potential job applicants.

AGL has already built plants at Nyngan and Broken Hill, and their website shares their ‘commitment to maintain a diverse workforce.’

In a presentation to Dubbo Regional Council, AGL as representatives of the Wellington North Solar Plant (WNSP) shared their Environmental Impact Statement overview in which they stated they ‘are working with employment consultants to develop a WNSP supported apprenticeship program.’

“The concept emerged after extensive consultation with the community where employment opportunities were raised as a primary concern.”

The program is expected to employ eight local apprentices over the life of the project.

The document also explained that ‘AGL expects that the approved project would require approximately 250 employees during construction.’

“AGL would seek to source as many construction workers and facility and maintenance operators from the local region as practicable.

“Local procurement and employ-

ment has been AGL’s demonstrable approach in the past and is consistent with AGL’s Community Engagement Policy.”

The local woman was also disappointed that Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) was considering building temporary accommodation to cater for transient workers when there are plenty of providers in town. She said construction of other developments in the past had also involved a lot of external labour hire.

“I was disappointed and felt that Dubbo Regional Council (previously Wellington Shire Council) has done this again. It’s wrong that they could temporarily accommodate them.”

Wellington-based councillor David Grant confirmed with Dubbo Photo News that Council had looked into construction but local facilities were now being used to accommodate solar farm workers.

“Council supports the use of local accommodation providers to enhance the town’s development,” he said. *Dubbo Photo News has been given the lady’s identity but has agreed to withhold it Photon Energy, AGL and Sureway were contacted for comment for this article.

COMMENT

Renewing agriculture and regions via wind and sun – Dubbo’s Renewable Energy Zone Comment by KARIN STARK A NSW-ACT Agrifuture’s Rural Women’s Award Finalist in 2019 THE planned Dubbo Renewable Energy Zone (REZ) has come at the right time for regional NSW. Planned to commence in early 2022, the development of largescale solar farms where sun and land abounds will help regional towns, hit by years of drought, to prosper.

Development of solar and wind farms creates jobs, can increase economic activity in local towns, reduces emissions and can provide an important secondary income for farmers. Despite these benefits, some concerns from local communities have been raised.

I live on a farm an hour west of Dubbo and in September 2018, we installed the country’s largest solar diesel irrigation pump.

Being the first of its size meant we weren’t without some teething issues, but despite this, the system is on track to pay for itself in the predicted five years.

The solar diesel pump has saved our farm business $170,000 a year in diesel costs and reduced CO2 emission by 500 tonnes a year.

I can clearly see the benefits of

renewables on farms, so having founded the National Renewables in Agriculture Conference, with the next planned for Dubbo in 2021, I’ve heard from many other farmers who also recognize the benefits large scale solar and wind farms can present.

They understand the benefits aren’t just for themselves who host the turbines and panels, but also for the communities surrounding them.

One such farmer is sheep grazier Charlie Prell.

Charlie hosts several wind turbines on his property in Crookwell NSW and the secondary income he receives from the wind farm has significantly assisted the running of his business and helped build resilience.

He is a strong advocate for ‘shared benefits’ so that neighbouring farms and towns can share in the windfalls that these large developments can bring.

There are several types of shared benefits that communities and farmers can negotiate.

For example, some wind or solar farms start a community fund that could help with upgrading or building public amenities such as pools.

Other models are proximity based

where neighbouring farms receive an income based on impact or distance from the development.

It’s important for communities and potential host farmers to be informed of these models and opportunities early in the engagement process as this may help with community acceptance of these large developments.

While there are some concerns about prime agricultural land being converted to solar farms, the Central West community should see the REZ as a massive opportunity and that such concerns can largely be managed.

There are tools available, such as the Sharing and Enabling Environmental Data (SEED) mapping tool that identifies prime agricultural land based on soil and infrastructure data.

This information can then be factored in when considering the placement of large-scale solar farms.

Additionally, research from overseas points to agrivoltaics as another possible solution.

Agrivoltaics is the combining of cropping and solar panels and research has found that soil moisture tends to be higher under solar panels than in exposed land.

The Art of War and getting down to business ADVERTORIAL

FROM THE BOOKSHELVES ] By DAVE PANKHURST, The Book Connection

TOUGH times – special efforts needed.

The circumstances of the last few months have impacted across the country and people in small businesses have had to meet the challenges. Here are just a few relevant books taken from the hundreds of business titles on our shelves.

A real classic for the business mind is Sun Tzu’s “Art of War”. A translation by Thomas Cleary is worthy of reading as he includes the comments from Sun Tzu’s generals that relate to the original comments.

One comment to his warriors that we can relate to small business is this: “Never attack an army that are on their way home.

They will fight to the death.”

The comments on the subject from others combine to explain that the army has had a great deal of experience, they know strategies, they are determined to get home, and when attacked they will fight to the death.

Well, that has to be a wonderful incentive to small business operators. You have been there long enough to know the details, and achieving your goal is the only

outcome of interest.

Daniel Priestley has written “Entrepreneur Revolution” which will help develop your business mindset and operate a business that works. When we encounter circumstances such as those currently experienced, we can consider just how we approach the future. Do we keep operating as in the past, do past practices make the best impact in the marketplace today, and how do we implement marketing strategies that will make us better that in the past?

“A collection of glittering, brilliant insights that make us think, and that tell the reader ‘that’s how it works’.”

Those few words support the title “Here Comes Everybody” by Clay Shirky, who describes how change happens when people come together.

In this age of emails, texts, blogs and wikied communications, it is an interesting analysis on how unpaid volunteers – the general public – can help your business.

In current times we have the tools to make this happen in favour of the business.

Tom Peters is a well-known business writer and is seen as one of the world’s most innovative business gurus. “Re-image!” is his text noted as “Business Excellence in a Disruptive Age”. The motivation for the text came after 9/11 and he cites the circumstances of how a small group of 19 terrorists devastated New York

and the whole of that nation.

It emerged that a state trooper in Maryland had stopped one of the offenders, but the trooper’s database was not connected to the CIA database – and the fellow listed on their database was on the CIA terrorist Watch List.

While this is not a book about the war on terror, it is about the failure of organisations and how, when faced with a major impact, we can re-organise the operation of our business to our advantage.

A book that deals with why most small businesses don’t work and what can be done about it is “The E Myth Revisited’ by Michael Gerber. The author’s aim is to bring the dream back to small business – this book has become a real classic.

Gerber walks you through the steps in the life of a small business – from entrepreneurial infancy through the growing pains to the mature perspective, providing a guiding light to all businesses that want to succeed. Importantly, Gerber provides the vital, overlooked distinction between working on your business, rather than working in your business.

A book specifically for the ladies is “The Millionaire Mystique” by Jude Burke. She writes on how working women become wealthy and how you can too, explaining self-management techniques key to healthy work and family life, and listing five per-

sonality traits that predict success. It includes stories of women who moved from childhood adversity into the resiliency, focus and drive needed to fuel their professional and personal successes.

Here are two books that deal with internet business operations. “B2B How to Build a profitable e-commerce Strategy” by Michael Cunningham provides a comprehensive account of the structure and gives a strategy for a pragmatic approach to crafting an e-commerce strategy.

And Richard Branson has written the foreword for “Little e, Big Commerce – How to make a Profit Online”.

The author Timothy Cumming explains how to set up, and get more out of, your website. Read about e-suppliers, e-competitors and e-customers, so that you can make money instead of draining your resources.

Guidelines for bricks and mortar businesses planning to make the move to internet sales are included.

With the popularity of coffee shops and cafes in today’s world, gaining a reputation for being at the top of that game is another challenge. “Grande Expectations” is about “a year in the life of Starbucks’ Stock”. Karen Blumenthal writes about the share

market, the ups and downs of the value of shares, and answers the question, ‘What are the implications of trading at the front line?’

I recently read “The Diary of a Bookseller” by Shaun Blythell who owns a second-hand bookstore in southern Scotland – the largest of its kind in that country.

As a shop that uses Amazon as a vehicle to sell books, and it occurs on a daily basis, he also explains the Amazon strategies in dominating the market, particularly on pricing.

Helen Burwell has written “Online Competitive Intelligence” which deals with using cyber-intelligence to operate in that marketing system. Read about creating your online search strategies, finding intelligence sources, accessing public records and government databases, tracking tools, mining company web pages, locating people via the internet, and much more.

Buying and reading a book on operating a business can be one of the best investments anyone in the trade can make – spending $20 can be the catalyst in generating thousands of dollars. Early in my working life I read Maxwell Maltz’s book “Psyco-Cybernetics” which has been the motivation to carrying on through time. You can do the same.

Enjoy your browsing, Dave Pankhurst

COMMENT Some studies in America have also shown higher yields of crops like tomato, grown under solar panels compared to crops grown in the open.

Countries like Japan, Austria and the US already successfully use agrivoltaics with the added benefit that crops grown un-

der the panels can also improve panel efficiency by reducing their temperature through the cropâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s transpiration.

Grazing of sheep is similarly becoming a more common practice, with Neoen, a solar farm developer, using this model with several of its projects, including at its

Dubbo solar farm.

This helps keep weeds and grass down in a cost-efficient manner and allows the farmer access to continue to use the land for agricultural purposes.

Another concern often cited against solar farms, is increased fire risk.

This risk must be addressed by the projectâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Environmental Impact Assessment and their Environmental Management Plan, produced as part of the planning approvals â&#x20AC;&#x201C; these plans will see mitigation measures put in

place before a solar farm can be approved.

Perhaps a further consideration for the Dubbo REZ would be that a portion be allocated as â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;community owned energyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;.

This allows locals to buy into the benefits of renewables and the income derived from these community owned assets stays in the region.

A call for submissions is out now as Helen Haines MP is developing a plan for supporting community owned renewables at a Federal level, with submissions due July 3.

AEMO and CSIRO released a report stating solar energy is the cheapest form of new energy generation.

The opportunity now exists for large scale renewables to complement farming operations and strengthen regional communities.

THE TOONS’ VIEWS

Drug bust a huge weight off Wellington’s shoulders The Editor, Finally, a drug bust operation worthy of its efforts!

Last week’s massive drug bust that was coordinated across Sydney and Wellington was like a huge weight lifting off the shoulders of Wellington township.

The high-ranking operation netted the local individuals and associates, who are well known to be long term drug selling offenders within our community.

For years these drug dealers have been active in our quiet rural community, ruining the lives of our youth by sourcing and selling drugs, attending regular court appearances that result in a slapped wrist while being affiliated with long term syndicates that have masterminded the years of drug distribution across our region and state.

For nearly twenty years Wellington community has witnessed the social and moral degrade of our society because of this minority group, and while these scumbags come and go, one family has dominated and we all now wait for the ‘matriarch’ to be also locked up!

Why has this taken so long when their actions were so blatant?

Wellington has suffered long enough.

We have endured years of lack in police numbers stationed at

Wellington, our reports of criminal activity falling on what appeared to be deaf ears, the horrible ‘ice capital’ branding, bad press stories and pathetic judges who have let this behaviour keep rolling along.

We deserve better and we will continue to stand proud and show that this community is rejoicing, even if our name is tarnished yet again, but this time for a grand result.

We need the judicial system to follow through and sentence these scumbags heavily instead of the usual slap on the wrist and see you out next week on bail.

A message to the law enforcers – we need continued follow up actions, continued surveillance, continued arrests and continued police support to stop other scumbag dealers moving in as distributors now there is a perceived ‘gap in the market’.

Congratulations to the many teams of police who have worked covertly on this long term and successful operation to nail the scumbags.

Pity this didn’t happen long ago but we are very grateful it has finally netted a whole syndicate with many people being arrested.

This minority of undesirables will not break the spirit of this fabulous country town and the won-

A Pandemic time to Quit The Editor, May 31 was World No Tobacco Day and the Cancer Council is urging smokers to quit smoking.

Over the last few months, we have seen a significant spike in the number of people going to our website for information and support on smoking.

We know that stress and anxi-

ety caused by the COVID-19 pandemic may have made it harder for people to quit, so we want our communities to know we are here.

While it’s not certain that people who smoke are more likely to get COVID-19, we know that they are at a higher risk of getting respiratory infections in general.

This means that it’s more likely, than not, that people who smoke have a higher risk of getting COVID-19 compared to people who don’t smoke.

No matter how long you have smoked, quitting will benefit your health in both the immediate and long-term future. It will also benefit the health of your family and friends and save you money. It’s never too late to stop smoking.

The younger you are, and the

sooner you stop, the better. Even smokers who quit at the age of 60 can reduce their chance of getting cancer and other diseases.

We know it’s not easy, but we can help point you in the direction of the support you need.

Choose something that is safe and suits you. Stick with the tried and tested approaches and be very wary of methods or products that seem too good to be true.

No matter what method you use, getting the support you need will improve your chances of success.

If you have any questions or concerns, call our Information and Support line on 13 11 20 or contact the Quitline on 13 78 48.

Take care and stay safe.

Can’t shoot the messenger? Then shut it down Yvette AubussonFoley ❚ OPINION

DUBBO PHOTO NEWS readers are spoiled. You have access to an independent, locally produced, locally owned, newspaper. No big conglomerate telling us what to write, who to favour, what truths to demonise.

You probably agree, the stories that appear here are largely yours. Your kids, your neighbours, your friends, old school mates, your boss, your grandma, your community.

Your struggles, hopes and dreams have all been packaged here, week after week, for the past 15 years, journaling for future generations to read and marvel at the dumb stuff we did, the babies we had (who might be their grandparents), the issues that mattered to us, the decisions leaders of the day made or didn’t make, who won the local footy comp, what community leaders were lost, or emerged, what kids said.

If there’s something Dubbo Photo News will be remembered for it’s as the snapshot of life in this time and the biggest bonus is it’s

freely accessible to all people picking up copies around the region, in Dubbo, Wellington, Wongarbon, Cobar, Nyngan, plus all the other places our Delivery Angels who – off their own bat – take bundles of the paper to their town or village like Narromine, Trangie, Mendooran, Gilgandra, and everywhere else Dubbo Photo News mysteriously appears.

Of course it isn’t “free” to create. There’s staff, an office, utilities, printing, distribution. All the things that are typical of print publishing and we can all – staff and readers alike – thank our advertisers, some of whom have stuck with us since 2005, who pay for it all.

It’s a win-win though because Dubbo Photo News is so widely read, so popular in the community the exposure is priceless. Our publisher has consistently operated on a very simple model of success. If we support local businesses with the tools we have, help them thrive, then we’ll thrive too.

Even through drought, followed by one of the most challenging episodes in humanity’s history, the Coronavirus Pandemic, Dubbo Photo News is ploughing on. We’re just as affected as anyone else, but working hard to keep going so that our readers staying at home could be connected to their community and see that it too was staying strong.

We love that! However, it’s certainly not the only thing that melds the community. What stands us apart from non-independent media, driven by shareholder demands or lobby groups, is if you have a gripe or something to cheer about, you are welcome – no, invited! – to share it here.

Want to write to the editor? Send your letter in. Yes, you can share it online with millions of people gathered in the digital space, but millions of people won’t care because they don’t live here and share in the inconvenience of a local situation or the wonder of one.

Your neighbours do.

Last week, a story broke that NewsCorp Australia would be closing dozens and dozens of community and regional newspapers across the country. It’s a business and can do what it likes, but it’s an exclusively profit driven company favouring short-term profit over people. Step forward and show me otherwise.

This pending, vast, information vacuum now belongs to a joke do` ing the rounds known as: “WelEven through drought, come to 2020”. It highlights disasfollowed by one of the ters of this year; the bushfires from most challenging episodes hell, a WWIII near miss, COVID-19 in humanity’s history, the devastation, UFO’s, close meteor Coronavirus Pandemic, passes... what’s next?”

For a little while, what came Dubbo Photo News is ploughing on... a next was, we went home, connected with the kids, exercised, travThe one day I can remember in the 12 years I’ve worked on and off for Photo News is the day the printer broke down and the papers weren’t on their stand one Thursday morning.

To say all hell broke loose would be an understatement but it proved to be one of the most effective surveys we’ve ever done.

“Every Thursday morning, I pick up the paper, grab a coffee and head home to read it,” one woman said at that time, phoning in to find out what had happened. “I didn’t know what to do with myself!” she said.

Dubbo Photo News is such an integral part of the fabric of the regional community and lives of residents, to the point it’s taken for granted it will appear each week and people shape their habits around picking it up because they value what they’ll find inside; a reflection of their home.

elled less, polluted less, bought less stuff and waited for... what’s next.

The death of more community and regional newspapers means information becomes exclusive and controlled, not by the hundreds of journalists operating at the coal face in cohesion with their community members, but soon, by a distant corporation, and algorithms.

How will the voices of the people on the street, in so many regional communities around the country be heard, their stories be told, if not in print, on record, shared, discussed, addressed and accountability demanded.

What NewsCorp gives for free on their already existing digital platforms like news.com or Fox, is the information equivalent of toxic waste; platforms blatantly designed to polarise or counter genuine truths such as the Earth is round and climate change is real.

It isn’t to say that news available from a digital source is not representative, hungry for, and demanding of the truth. WikiLeaks, the Guardian, The Saturday Paper, the Conversation, Juice Media... there are many examples in Australia of loud voices refusing to be cut from the conversation, with journalists doing their job, keeping the b**stards honest.

In an information void, what’s next?

Meerkats keeping warm on a freezing Dubbo day Cathy Eves was wondering if, as a human, she was actually smarter than the meerkats she was watching at the zoo on a freezing morning this week.

“It was bitterly cold as you know lol, Cathy told Dubbo Photo News.

“We were shivering in the open and they were huddled under a heater...who are the clever ones?”

Hopping to the pub!

DUBBO PHOTO NEWS reader Peter Rendell snapped this kangaroo for us just near Dubbo’s skatepark and he said it was looking longingly at the Garden Hotel just across Gipps Street.

We’ll never know if it was after a coldie after being in bush-isolation these past few months, hoping the front bar would be open for a session with a few mates.

JOSH IRVINE of Narromine and Megan Seis from Dunedoo are off to Charles Sturt University as two of four students to be awarded scholarships worth up to $20,000 under the Australian Rail Track Corporation (ARTC) Inland Rail Skills Academy program.

“I’m proud Narromine and Dunedoo locals Josh Irvine and Megan Seis have been awarded scholarships.

They’re both studying scientific degrees and have expressed a desire to work in regional Australia once their studies are complete, giving back to the communities that raised them,” Federal Member for Parkes Mark Coulton said.

“We all see the benefits Inland Rail is bringing our region, and these ARTC scholarships are another excellent initiative to keep those benefits coming over the long

term.”

Mr Coulton says the scholarships offer regional students a chance to further their education and kickstart their careers to the benefit of regional Australia.

“The Inland Rail Skills Academy will enable us to build the skills of young people in regional Australia and help them get started in careers which directly contribute to the prosperity of their regions.”

Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Infrastructure, Transport and Regional De-

velopment Michael McCormack said the Inland Rail will require scientific solutions during construction and once it’s operational.

“This scholarship program is helping to develop the scientific minds of the future – young Australians who will directly contribute to the future prosperity of their region,” he said.

“Each and every person employed, or trained, through Inland Rail will gain skills and expertise that they can take back to their

Dubbo Photo News June 4-10, 2020 VOLUNTEER STORIES

Former paramedic fights fires for two brigades in her spare time

By JOHN RYAN LORRAINE GOULD spends much of her time as a volunteer with the NSW Rural Fire Service (RFS).

She’s a member of two brigades, Dripstone and Geurie, and for the past 10 years has responded to fire calls, bushfires, structural fires, backburns, motor vehicle crashes and anything else that gets the brigades called out.

Her speciality is as a Volunteer First Aid instructor and it was through those medical skills she first had a brush with the RFS. “Initially I was just an instructor while I was with the Ambulance Service and helping out another emergency service,” Mrs Gould told Dubbo Photo News.

“Then, when I retired from the Ambulance Service I thought I would be more proactive and help fight fires as well as be a first aid officer on the truck.”

Other duties include maintenance runs on the truck and assisting in any area that’s required, including training.

She says it’s non-stop action when on deployment to firegrounds.

“Oh boy. While deployed you work non-stop. I get up, have a

Lorraine Gould

meal and head straight to the debriefing area,” Mrs Gould said.

“We’re assigned an area that we are sent to, day by day, this can be the same area that you worked on the day before or another area, you pick up your meals for the day, check your truck and crew, fuel and head to the fire.

“I worked in a strike team most of the time and I was the crew leader on my truck as well as being the driver – this means you

are also responsible for the welfare of your crew,” she said, you work all day, once I think we worked 17 hours before being relieved by another crew, it’s fullon and really rewarding knowing you are helping people, livestock and property.”

As an RFS member she said the support and training offered is incredible, with courses running in the off (fire) season including chainsaw, four-wheel driving, off-

road driving, fire- fighting at so many different levels, first aid, and more.

“I can’t say how many hours I have done each year as things change, I had five trips away with the fires around December, January and February this year. I have been to Queensland for the floods, Tasmania for the fires and I will go where they need me,” Mrs Gould said.

“I think the general public at large don’t realise how many volunteers are out there and how committed most of them are.

Australia is blessed to have people willing to help out a mate, let’s hope that we can say that in another 50 years.”

She said it’s difficult to attract the right kind of volunteers, people who are committed to work and who can also commit the time into training so that they are skilled enough to carry out the tasks that are required.

“Time and commitment are the keys to a good volunteer and many just can’t find the time.

“I think it is a privilege to be a volunteer. I have been involved in volunteer service all my adult life and feel that I am the one that gets the most reward out of doing

what I do. I don’t need a “thank you” because you see it in peoples’ eyes. Their gratitude, their relief, their smiles, their support, their tears.

“Honestly doing something for someone else without expecting something in return is the most rewarding experience I can imagine. Then, when you do get a thank you... it just melts your heart,” she said.

Mrs Gould said it’s difficult to explain what motivates a volunteer until you feel it, but says that act of unselfishness makes you value yourself, helps build your own self-esteem and that you become addicted to helping others.

“There is always someone worse off than yourself, you know yourself how great it is to get a helping hand with no strings attached. Pass it forward and feel the joy.

“Good volunteers are those that have the time to get skilled, and the desire to help others and be fit enough to do the job at hand.

Even if that job is passing someone a cup of tea at the driver reviver, there is a volunteer job out there for everyone.”

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 Italy was the only country to issue stamps specifically for mail travelling through bank tubes until the practice was discontinued in 1966. z Kleenex tissues were originally developed as crepe paper and used for gas mask filters. z Proof that human nature is the one thing that never really changes: The oldest “your mama” joke was discovered in 1976 on a 3500-yearold Babylonian tablet in Iraq. z The “Jesus Nut” on a helicopter fixes the rotor blades to the vehicle.

It comes by its unusual moniker because, if it should fail, your only option is to pray to Jesus! z Do you, like most people, normally skip reading the fine print?

You might want to reconsider that.

In 2017, 22,000 people who signed up for free public Wi-Fi from the UK-based technology firm Purple

learned their lesson when they inadvertently agreed to 1000 hours of community service that included cleaning toilets and “relieving sewer blockages”. The company said it inserted the clause in its contract “to illustrate the lack of consumer awareness of what they are signing up to when they access free Wi-Fi”. z In 2014, a new species of vine was discovered in Chile that can mimic the leaves of many different host trees by changing the size, shape, colour, orientation and even the vein patterns of its leaves to match the surrounding foliage. It is the only known plant that can do this. z When asked how he was able to portray battle scenes so accurately, Stephen Crane, author of “The Red Badge of Courage”, replied that he learned all he needed to know about war from football. z Women blink nearly twice as much as men.

NOW HERE’S A TIP z Need a twist tie in an emergency?

Check your coffee bag. Many bean bags sold these days – from the grocery store and specialty roasters alike – come in a bag with a twist tie built in, so you can fold the bag down and retain freshness. If you really need one, you can pull the twist tie off and seal your grounds in a tin or a zipper-top baggie. z Get to know your frozen veggies.

There’s been a lot of emphasis in the past about fresh vegetables.

While they’re great, it’s not always possible to get to the supermarket or farmer’s market regularly. Frozen veggies often have the most vitamins because most are flash frozen right after harvest. You can find many varieties, and they’re easy to use in most recipes. z New use for a favourite mug: “My friend gave me a coffee mug that’s

adorable, but it’s not very nice in the microwave – it just gets too hot! I drink hot tea, and my mug is constantly in and out of the microwave. So, I use my gift mug to hold tea bags! It sits on my counter and holds enough packaged bags for a full week. And I can look at it and think of my friend.” – T.W. z “To get the rubber tops of my son’s sneakers clean, and keep them that way, I use the melamine cleaning sponges, like the Magic Eraser or White Magic. Just get it damp, rub off (most) grass stains and keep it handy.” – P.E. z Gotta paint a door? Put a lag bolt into the top and bottom of the door, on the narrow. This way, the lag bolt rests on your sawhorses, and you can flip the door over to paint each side. No longer do you have to paint one side, let it dry ALL THE WAY and then flip it over, risking paint getting pulled off the edges.

...inspiring locals!

Two-wheeled laptop learning

Two weeks ago Dubbo Photo News reported on the Olympic dreams of Dubbo cyclist Haylee Fuller. The teenage cycling sensation had learnt she was one of just 10 athletes across all sports to win a coveted NSW Olympic Council Athletes Grant. Aside from her cycling achievements, Haylee continues to study at school in Dubbo. Haylee reveals how she’s handling school and sporting life during COVID-19 restrictions in this interview with JOHN RYAN. How did you find schooling online?

I actually loved online schooling.

It gave me the opportunity to fit my schooling work in with training. A few times I was getting my work done while on the indoor bike which was really efficient and especially being in year 11 the workload is fairly heavy so I had to ensure I was organised and kept on top of everything.

Being an elite athlete, are you already well organised when it comes to getting your schoolwork done so you can also focus on your training?

I train usually twice a day, so I have to ensure I use my class time and study very efficiently while at school. So, having to be organised at home was much the same for me, if not probably better.

Did that background help you settle into a routine while school lessons were online?

Having put so much determination and commitment into cycling, I do the same for my schooling. So I followed my normal class timetable, but from home, so I made sure I didn’t miss anything, this meant if one subject needed more work I could spend more time on that, as for some subjects I got the daily work done quickly.

Take us through a day of training and schooling in isolation from the time you woke up to the time you went to sleep.

I would get up around 6, have breakfast, and get my first block of training down. Then I would have something else to eat before starting school and I would do that till about 4pm. Having breaks in between. Then I would go out training again for another two hours and basically repeat each day.

How much different was training during the lockdown period?

Training for me during this time

was the exact same, my program didn’t change. Just the way I did the program changed such as having to ride solo and having to do gym from home. At the start I found riding solo hard as this was something I had never really done much before.

How were your coaches able to help in that regard?

My coaches have been really good. I was able to still fit in my training with the new way of doing my schoolwork. I was getting gym programs each day from Red City which was really good as they challenged me to push my

limits. I set many goals each day for this time period and within my Sydney Uni-Staminade road team we do weekly skills which is always good fun and challenges my ability.

Do you normally train with your friends and if so, how difficult was it to train by yourself?

I would normally train in groups of about 10 other riders from the Dubbo Cycle Club, but with the enforced restriction due to COVID-19, I had to train alone. I was getting a fair few rides in with my younger twin sisters which I had not normally done much

before. I had never really done much solo kilometres and didn’t realise how privileged I was to have been able to train with so many riders of the same age and level as me as many cyclists across Australia don’t get this opportunity.

Anything you’d like to add?

I am grateful to so many groups and individuals. St Johns College has been outstanding with the way they have had to deal with the change of school circumstances. The college kept in constant communication which allowed me to continue my

learning in a supported environment. My cycling family, such as coaches, my club, my team, Cycling NSW, Cycling Australia and NSWIS have been on hand to offer support in many ways, such as online support, zoom calls, vertical racing just to mention a few. And of course my family and friends have been supporting me and encouraging me to achieve and accept the challenges that we all faced during the pandemic. I think it has allowed me to grow and develop in ways that I would not have necessarily done otherwise, if it were not for COVID-19.

Wal Norman story prompted positive feedback

By GEOFF MANN OUR profile of retired pharmacist Wally Norman and his recollections of Astley Cup contests in the 1940s in last week’s Photo News brought some welcome responses.

Former Dubbo High student and Dubbo High historian Patrick Bourke added some interesting insights.

“I am sure that Wal will fondly remember his football coach, the late Clive Henry “Nip” Ward.

Nip played 16 first grade rugby league matches in Sydney – 15 for University (1929-31) and one for North Sydney (1936). Nip’s obituary which was written by Mrs Small and published in the 1969 Bindyite, Dubbo High’s Yearbook is well worth a read.”

Wally recalled how two of his classmates, Doug Sadler and John Whittle had put on hold their sen-

ior studies to volunteer in World War II. Patrick contributed more information.

“Over 450 Dubbo High School ex-students served during WW2.

Names are on the War Service Honour Boards at Dubbo College.

There are around 475 including names of those who had been recognised at South Dubbo and Delroy.

45 Dubbo High ex-students died during WW2. Amongst those were several who played for the school in the Astley Cup. They included: z John (Jack) Eddy who was in the 1923 Astley Cup football team z Greg Benham DSC who was a star in the 1932 Astley Cup in athletics z Thomas Jones who was in the 1928 Astley Cup football team z John (Jock) Gardiner who was in the 1941 Astley Cup football team

z Rawdon (Ron) Middleton VC who was in the 1934 Astley Cup tennis team z Barrington Knyvett DFC probably would have been in the 1931 Astley Cup football team but the Astley Cup was cancelled in 1931 due to the Great Depression,” Patrick wrote.1 “Another ex-student who participated in the Astley Cup and died during the Second World War was Bruce Astley, the third son of the donor of the Cup, Laurence Astley. Bruce was on the 1934 Dubbo High football team.

As a Sergeant Pilot, Bruce lost his life in an aircraft accident in England on 28 January 1942 while serving as an Instructor.”.

Patrick reminded me that the Astley Cup was cancelled in 1940 because of the war, however it resumed the following year.

“As the late Mrs Small, who was the Sportsmistress at the school

for 17 years (1939-56), stated: ‘We needed to cling to stable things and traditions that were not swept away, in a world where so much was being destroyed.

“2020 is the 75th anniversary of the end of WW2 so it is heartening to provide our current cohort with stories of their forebears.

The Japanese unconditional surrender in principle was on 15th August, 1945 and the documents were signed by the warring nations on 2 September 1945,” Patrick added, “so it is maybe fortuitous that this year’s challenges will fall closer to that date.”

Patrick also referred to a photo of the 1941 DHS Astley Cup football published in the Dubbo Photo News on 30 March 2017 “A number of the young men who are in the photo served in the War. Two of the footballers, John (Jock) Gardiner and William McLeod who were in the

RAAF, died during that time.

Jock was killed in a flying school accident at Port Pirie, South Australia, on 27 August 1943; William died in a flying battle over PNG on 11 April 1945.”2 Patrick finished with a note that we wholeheartedly endorse.

“I trust that Wal can be there for the 75th anniversary of the 1946 rugby league team next year and the centenary of the Astley Cup in 2023.”

Don the Crocodile hunting Duck – Molong born; Dubbo reared!

By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL

DONNY Attenborough says his early years in the small town on the banks of Molong Creek created a love of swimming.

“Joining the Dubbo Ducks cemented my love of the water and introduced me to a lifetime of fun and friendship and thousands of miles of travel with a group who share my love of the outback,” he told Dubbo Photo News.

Don Attenborough turned 90 years young yesterday (Wed), a feat celebrated with wife Betty, two of his offspring and grandkids at their home of over six decades.

The retired train driver reflected on his time in the city.

“I was on the railway all my working life, starting on the platforms and finishing up driving trains right across the west,” Don recalled Don and wife Betty settled into their home in Alfred St in 1959.

“Sue, Bob and Jack grew up in this house. Now our grandchildren enjoy the greenhouse and the fairy garden we’ve built down the back,” he said proudly.

Don and Betty’s neatly cropped lawns and welcoming “nursery” in the backyard have been the venue for hundreds of Ducks gatherings over the years.

When Tony Wall, Reg Ferguson, Dave Sparkes, Henry Wilcockson and Judy Walsh got together for morning tea last week, the memories flowed. Betty had kept a photographic record of most of the events.

“There are others we dare not capture on film,” Betty

laughed.

‘Suffice to say, what goes on in Alfred St Duck gatherings, stays in ‘the pool’.

We have had birthday parties, christenings, end of year celebrations and lots of other times when we’ve just partied because we could,” she laughed even louder!

The camaraderie of the ageing Ducks is contagious.

The group recalled 20 or more “end of season, winter warmers” trips to the northern parts of Australia.

` It was a way to remember the big fella who took a large chunk out of our motor on one of the trips. a “Our son Bob left here for the wet and dry seasons in Western Australia when he was 29 and he’s never returned. He’s been living in Borroloola for the past thirty years so when Don would go north, he captured the imagination of the (mostly) boys at the Ducks. Pretty soon they all wanted to go and as often happens, word spread and the adventurers grew in number.”

Don loves the outback.

Although his travelling days are over, the back verandah is filled with memorabilia.

There are photos, artefacts, a cross-cut saw lovingly painted with Australiana by one of Don’s creative Duck friends.

“I also brought home the skull of a crocodile we caught in the swamps. It was a way to remember the big fella who took a large chunk out of our motor on

Betty served up morning tea for “her Ducks”

one of the trips,” Don said with a cheeky grin.

The Ducks are a resilient group who have overcome all sorts of adversities over the years. They have shared the full gamut of life’s experiences.

“We’ve had the full range of hatch, match and dispatch along the way and we’ve shared tears and laughter equally as life has gone along. The Ducks have been and continue to be the cornerstone of our lives,” Don and Betty assured me.

Life member Judy Walsh, whose husband Brian had brokered a pathway with Henry Willcockson and Marie Priddis, became the first woman to swim with the club.

Current club president Henry remembers it fondly.

“Marie backed us to the hilt when Judy wanted to swim with us. There was some resistance and a few blokes left because they wanted it to be a boy’s club but it has been one of the best things we’ve ever done. Now we have lots of women and girls who join us on Sunday morning. In fact, there have been plenty of days when the Ducks would not have been able to race if the girls weren’t on the blocks.”

Don and Bett, Ducks and descriptions of daring endeavours in the northern parts of Australia demonstrate the immeasurable strength of local sporting clubs.

Happy birthday Don. We look forward to you chalking up the next ten years.

There is every chance there’ll be more croc hunting tales from the next generation to head to the Duck gallery!

Don with his croc!

DUBBO DUCKS

Walking Ducks

By GEOFF MANN PERFECT weather and the desire to maintain contact saw 21 of the Dubbo Veterans Swimming Club gather for a walk and talk rather than a splash and dash on Sunday.

Duck’s Club President Henry Wilcockson says it’s important to keep everyone connected.

“This is our 60th year and we had planned to host the Queen’s Cup Carnival on the Long Weekend and celebrate our anniversary but when the pandemic hit, we were all at a bit of a loose end. Some suggested we go walking early in the piece but of course we were not allowed to gather as a group but now those restrictions are lifted we can all see each other again.”

The Ducks have been waddling around the riverbank paths for the past couple of weeks and will continue.

“On Sunday week, the 13th June, we are planning to gather at the Macquarie Club and set off in many directions to walk for an hour or so then we’ll gather to celebrate Donny Attenborough’s 90th. We are encouraging everyone to wear purple, the colour for the nonagenarian stage of life,” Henry added.

Coffee and a chance to pick some fresh herbs and vegetables at the St Brigids “market garden” last Sunday capped another day in the life of the famous Ducks

FEEDBACK

Courts will be brighter when iso lifts Netball will have more options to facilitate training and games with new lights installed at the Nita McGrath Courts last week.

We’ll have more news on this exciting addition to Dubbo sporting facilities in next week’s Photo News.

Bruce Lincoln tribute DEAR Geoff You may recall me from years gone by, I am the proud son of Bruce Lincoln.

On behalf of mum, Vanessa and myself, I just wanted to thank you for the great story you put together and ran recently on dad. For me it rekindled a lot of memories of some of the fun days had by all and the characters that played and all the parties back at our place after a game.

It always amused me that both teams were there, sharing a drink and laugh!

That is what sport is all about.

Many thanks again Geoff

CYMS cricket unearthed a trove of treasured memories OUR Time Warp on the CYMS cricket team’s unique double 65 years apart brought a tear and a smile to Gail Barrow.

“Geoff, my dad was Max Hartley. He was in those photos,” she texted.

“I had never seen a photo of him without a hat! He died when I was very young and I always saw him wearing his hat.”

Gail discovered something else about her father.

“I didn’t even know he played cricket! He was a great horseman and used to break in young colts and fillies around the area so to see him in a cricket team... Wow, it blew me away,” she added.

We are so glad we are able to connect people through our pages.

Gail’s story is not unusual.

These days we take so much for granted with our flash phone cameras and instantaneous so-

cial media shares but 60 or 70 years ago cameras were not so available so it is rewarding to open the eyes of our readers.

By the way, Max Hartley wasn’t “just a cricketer”. The all-rounder topped batting and bowling averages in Dubbo cricket on a number of occasions and was captain of the CYMS team that won the second of three successive Whitney Cups in 1954/55.

Golfers on par with course restrictions

By NATALIE LEWIS WHILE many winter sports have been frozen out by the COVID-19 pandemic, Wellington’s golfing fraternity has been enjoying the picturesque course on a daily basis.

Club member Marie Cornish said they have been fortunate to have remained on the fairways through the past few months.

“We haven’t been affected.

We are very lucky we have been able to play,” she said.

In line with public health orders relating to limits on gatherings, golfers have been allowed to continue as part of allowances for exercising outside the home. Mrs Cornish said they have been following rules established by Golf NSW. “There’s a lot of restrictions,” she said. “We are using social distancing, it’s been all individual players, with one person per cart and one set of sticks per player.

“Some clubs are also letting

husbands and wives, brothers and sisters, family members go together but that’s an individual club thing.

“Some clubs are members only but we are accepting others on the course – members and non-members.”

During May, it was announced that groups of four could begin playing a round of golf together. Wellington golfers have also been playing competition rounds.

“We have been allowed to run

competitions. There’s someone there on the course every day.”

Mrs Cornish also works at the club as a bar attendant. While the clubhouse remains closed, she said golfers have been allowed to make purchases to take home.

“We are selling takeaways.

We have had a huge downturn but we are still out there on the course most days. We are doing okay.”

Restrictions set around bars and pubs are also set to be

eased this week.

That’s welcome news to Wellington croquet club president Jennifer Wykes. The group is based at the local bowling club and hasn’t been able to play since trading restrictions began.

“We are looking at a tentative date to start back again, she said.

“If we can get into the club, we will be able to start playing again, although there will be a few changes with social distancing and morning tea.”
