KIWI KERFUFFLE COUPLE’S OBSTACLES OVER OMICRON

By TIJANA BIRDJAN SINCE arriving in Australia six weeks ago, the Omicron variant has disrupted family gatherings, Christmas and New Year celebrations. In the past among the easiest to navigate, New Zealand and Australian border restrictions have rapidly tightened over the past two years but were set to again ease on January 17 prior to the introduction of Omicron. To enter the New Zealand borders travellers are required to apply for Manage Isolation Quarantine (MIQ) to secure one of 2000 rooms to isolate in when they return from overseas travel.

New Zealand resident Anna Rouse – formerly of Wellington and home to see family for the festive season – said there are more than 15,000 people applying for a MIQ room. Anna, her husband Damian and their five-month-old son Gabriel were fortunate enough to reserve a room from Thursday, January 13 when they return from their Aussie visit. Ms Rouse said they entered Australia on December 3 and were required to isolate for three days then do a PCR test on day six. “We tried to avoid Sydney as much as we could to enjoy our trip,” Ms Rouse said. “It was really hard for us be-

cause our son Gabriel had to get tested six times while in Australia. “As a mum, I was extremely anxious as he doesn’t have vaccines and can’t wear a mask so we had to protect him the best we could while travelling.” After leaving Sydney the trio travelled to Tasmania to meet her husband’s family. “The flight there was scary,” she said. “Police came on the plane and escorted six people out of the plane, probably for not having the correct documentation. “No one knew what was going on.” Once they arrived in Tasmania, the Omicron outbreak surged through the Apple Isle during the

Christmas period. “We’ve been really lucky as we have been able to see everyone and haven’t been a close contact to any positive cases,” she said. Anna and her family have recently been in Wellington spending time with her parents. “This is the first time my family has met our son, so it is great he got to meet his grandparents, aunties and uncles,” she said. “My sister has also recently had her first baby so I’m happy to be here and give her extra support.” Anna does not have any family in New Zealand, having moved there with her husband for a job opening. “I haven’t seen my family for

two years so thank God we came, but this trip has been very anxiety driven. “It is scary not knowing what is going to happen and where it is so we’re very lucky we have avoided it so far.” On their return to New Zealand, the family is required purchase an $80 PCR test to receive a letter to prove their negative results 48 hours before their flight. “The rest of the world is opening so it’s very difficult to see that Australia and New Zealand still have very tight borders,” she said. “Even when I was enjoying time with my family, I always had constant anxiety at the back of my mind about future uncertainties.”

Calm your farm, there’s plenty to go ‘round THE state’s peak agricultural body says there’s plenty of fresh food to go ‘round, and is calling for us all to stay calm amid supply chain concerns. NSW Farmers says production levels of fresh food are good, despite the challenging weather of the past few months and has urged shoppers not to panic buy. The state’s growers are sending plenty of produce down to the Sydney Markets, and the association says it’s working on making sure farm businesses can continue to harvest these crops. The big challenge for the sector now is sick workers and a lack of access to Rapid Antigen Tests (RATs), the combination of which is creating the broader supply chain issues we’re currently hearing about. NSW Farmers is also calling for the ACCC to keep a close eye on retailers to make sure they don’t use the perceived supply issues as an excuse to jack up prices.

Parkes MP Mark Coulton said a total of $7.9 million is available to give local show societies a much-needed cash injection after the disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. “Agricultural shows and field days are one of the biggest highlights on the social calendar for many communities in the Parkes electorate, providing a much-needed opportunity for locals to come together, catch up and support each other,” Mr Coulton said. “As a former ag show president myself, I know just how much hard work and effort goes into ensuring they go off without a hitch, which is why the past two years of cancellations have been particularly difficult for local committees, and communities who rely on the social and economic benefits these events provide. “These grants provide show societies and field day organisations with the confidence they need to go ahead and plan their events in 2022 and beyond.” Applications for support under this second round of fund-

New-look council: A fresh start for Dubbo By TIJANA BIRDJAN DUBBO Regional Council has a new-look line-up which has kicked off a fresh start for the term, with the newly elected councillors and their families attending a collective oath and affirmation signing at the Dubbo Regional Theatre and Convention Centre (DRTCC) on Tuesday this week. The elected council features eight new members and two former members, Mayor Mathew Dickerson, who returns to the chamber for the first time since the amalgamation of Dubbo and Wellington councils, and Councillor Vicki Etheridge, the only incumbent councillor to be returned at the last election. The newly elected members represent diversity and aim to introduce a strong cultural lens to the community. Councillor Matt Wright said he is very excited about the new group of representatives. “We’re all extremely diverse and I think a lot of communities are well represented. It’ll be great to bring ideas into the Dubbo community,” Cr Wright said. History has been made with two

Aboriginal council representatives Councillors Lewis Burns and Pam Wells, who also make history as the first brother and sister to sit together in the chamber. The sibling duo is passionate about bringing the community together and being strong representatives for Indigenous movements in the Dubbo community. “We need to improve communication with the traditional landowners and to represent our country,” Cr Burns said. “What we have isn’t working and we need to figure out a way to bring the community together, not split it up.” Councillor Pam Wells said she was honoured to have the opportunity to share a strong cultural lens across all the decision making through a government process. “My main priority is to focus on Dubbo’s drugs and rehabilitation centres and make sure the community has a voice at the table,” Cr Wells said. “We need to have more youth services for people who have antisocial behaviours or at risk of participating in criminal activities. “Children who come from any background can be a part of cul-

tural learning and by learning about different cultural backgrounds they grow up with a better trajectory of like, rather than being in the system.” First time elected Councillor Shibli Chowdhury, who was born in Bangladesh and brought his family to Dubbo 12 years ago, said his objective was to get trust back into the community. “I feel really welcomed by the community since I have arrived, and I want to give the same trust and respect back,” Cr Chowdhury said. Mayor Mathew Dickerson said he was “very excited” for the new group of councillors as most have no experience as elected representatives in local government. “It’s almost like we have a clean slate of paper, and we can start fresh,” Mayor Dickerson said. “I think our major point is that we need to build community confidence and we want people in the community to believe what council is doing and the strong direction we’re heading in.” Councillor Vicki Etheridge has been elected for her second term and said she is honoured to be given a second chance to represent

the community. “I want to concentrate on our housing and growth and development. Housing is a big priority to me as well as our roads and our major infrastructure in the city,” Cr Etheridge said. “I want to continue to green Dubbo and keep planting trees to make it a cooler place to live. I also want to fix parking as that is a big issue.” Deputy Mayor Richard Ivey and Cr Jess Gough are the two elected representatives for the Wellington ward. “Wellington is a fantastic little place; it’s got all sorts of natural beauties and attributes, but it just hasn’t been able to get there,” Deputy Mayor Ivey said. “It has some problems such as socioeconomic and crime issues, but it is not as bad as publicity will lead you to believe. “We’ve got a development of renewable energies in the Wellington area within a 20km radius of (the town). “In a five- to eight-year period, there will be over $2billion of capital expenditure and Wellington is not getting that much out of it. “We must harness the potential

of those renewables to bring economic benefit to Wellington.”

Councillor Gough said she will persist the rest of the members to lobby the state government in order to assist Wellington and surrounding towns, while Cr Damien Mahon said that with his business experience in private enterprises, he is constantly looking for improvements and will apply that expertise to council.

“There is always a lot of planning involved and opportunities where it would be great to capitalise on and help identify strong decisions as we go along,” Cr Mahon said.

Councillor Josh Black reinstated the financial strategies that the council ensures to improve over the term.

“We need to get the budget back in balance, it’s been down $20m for the past ten years and we need to fix that,” Cr Black said.

“We all want to see Dubbo go ahead. There are a lot of good ideas and we’re all here to make the community better.” Meet their supporters ›› PAGE 9

Although there have been some fruit and veg shortages across the city thanks to transport issues, Dubbo residents can be assured there’s still plenty of food on the shelves. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS

By TIJANA BIRDJAN WHILE major supermarkets have been struggling to overcome low food distribution during this most recent Covid outbreak, Dubbo residents have been assured there’s no need to panic, particularly with outlets such as Ashcroft’s IGA having full shelves during this stocking crisis period. There have been some gaps in the selection of fruit and vegetables due to several public holidays calendared on a Monday and Tuesday over the break, according to owner Ben Ashcroft who said their transport and ordering has been affected. “The IGA Transport delivery days are on Monday and Tuesday, so our transport has suffered a bit in delays,” Mr Ashcroft said. “Other than that, we have not experienced any major food or stock shortages within our store.” The public holiday closures have resulted in a short product delay from fresh markets in Sydney. The shorter weeks have significantly impacted the fresh produce on the shelves, but Mr Ashcroft was pleased to announce that from this week, transport deliveries should return to schedule. The pandemic and lack of fruit

pickers have also increased the prices of fresh Australian produce with market prices having “skyrocketed” over the past few weeks according to Mr Ashcroft. “Unfortunately, like every other supermarket, we have had to increase our prices as well,” he said. “We still want to make sure we are providing the best quality to our customers.” Mr Ashcroft has reassured the Dubbo community to not worry about food shortages as there will be necessities for what is required. “The staff have had over two years’ experience with COVID and are always adapting to new situations,” Mr Ashcroft said. “Everyone here is family and we all help one another. “There’ll be times when the produce manager will jump in the dairy freezer when needed.” Mr Ashcroft said his supermarket follows strict cleaning procedures to ensure the store is a safe environment for every customer. “Coles and Woolworths have been hit hard in the recent weeks and I think customers need to understand that they are doing the best they can with everything that is going on,” Mr Ashcroft said.

Mark Knaggs said his business is fortunate not to be experiencing any shortages. “We’re really lucky as we have the opportunity to get supplies from various locations as well as our own farms, “Mr Knaggs said. “This helps us control our stock levels so we can always monitor what products we need.” DMC has hired high school and tertiary students to ensure the retail store is consistently stocked. “We aren’t relying on other companies or other centres as we cut all fresh meat ourselves.

“The only issues we have experienced was that two of our transport staff have been close contacts to a few cases, but we sorted that out quickly.” Mr Knaggs said he and his staff are doing the best they can to supply the Dubbo region with quality meats. “I think the important thing is not to panic because no one knows what is going to happen and where it will happen,” Mr Knaggs said. “It’s a bit of a headache, but we must ride through it.”

MARRIAGE celebrant Helen McLean’s distinctive car is a common sight around Dubbo. Tuesday’s wild storm brought down branches in many parts of the region, including two which landed on Helen’s car parked behind the library. On the bright side, Dubbo Photo News has been told by readers that Good Samaritans got to work near Geurie, jumping in to action with chainsaws to clear downed tree limbs that had fallen on to roads. Thumbs up to all who helped! Whilst the official rainfall tally at Dubbo airport for Tuesday afternoon was only 12mm, at one point a wind gust of 67km/h was recorded.

A century of caring for the bush By TIJANA BIRDJAN IN April this year, the Country Woman’s Association (CWA) of NSW will be celebrating its 100th birthday. The CWA of NSW had its beginnings at the Bushwomen’s Conference held in conjunction with the Royal Agricultural Show in Sydney in April 1922. Since then, the CWA has focused on fighting isolation and a lack of health facilities, funding more bush nurses, members starting work on setting up baby health care centres and building and staffing maternity wards, hospitals, schools, rest homes and holiday getaways for rural and remote families. CWA of NSW president Stephanie Stanhope said that throughout the century, the women of the organisation have fought and still fight for the services the regional community requires. “We’ve really proven what an organisation can do, and we implement the changes we want,” Ms Stanhope said. “Our organisation initiates from the grass roots members and gets politicians to vocalise the importance of our rural and regional issues. “We’re still making changes and assessing what the needs are. “It’s about practising advocacy to our government and implementing change and decision making faster.” Ms Stanhope’s presidency finishes in May and she has said her

biggest challenge was meeting throughout COVID. “We have all learnt how to meet online, but we all prefer a much more social interaction,” Ms Stanhope said. “During lunches or morning teas our ideas tend to bounce off another – Zoom doesn’t have the same effect. “I guess one benefit is that it has demonstrated how many members can use technology and keep up with modern times.” Ms Stanhope said a new wave of women are joining the CWA

through motions of advocacy. “The CWA is a place for all walks of life no matter what your interest is,” she said. “It’s about companionship, support and social networks that you have within and outside of rural communities.” The same values and ideologies are recognised in the CWA today as they were 100 years ago, according to Ms Stanhope. “The women who formed the constitution, aims and objectives are still applicable to the challenges and goals we have today,”

she said. “This year is such an exciting one for all of us and we’re so proud that the association formed all those decades ago has grown to be the largest women’s organisation in Australia and continues to positively contribute to rural and regional communities in so many different ways.” The association has many events and activities planned for 2022, the biggest being the CWA annual state conference at Royal Randwick in Sydney in early May, with the event to be officially opened by CWA NSW patron and NSW Governor, Margaret Beazley. Thirteen branches will also be celebrating their own centenaries this year. “This is an important time to reflect on just how far we’ve come and the successes of the association to date, but just as importantly to look to the future and determine our priorities, particularly around our all-important advocacy efforts on behalf of rural, regional and remote communities,” Ms Stanhope said. “The association has evolved in so many different ways in the past 100 years to remain as active and relevant as it was when Grace Munro became the first state president, and we’re proud to give our members not only the chance to engage with other like-minded women, but to continue the tradition of improving the lives of women and families right across the state.”

Rally to protest jabs for juniors DUBBO will be one of the centres in which the fourth #ReclaimTheLine freedom rally will be held this weekend to highlight what organisers say is the “critical issue of vaccinations for kids”, just days after the federal government’s rollout for 5-11-year olds begins. The Voices 4 The Kids rally will be held this Saturday, January 15, at locations across Australia, including capital cities and major regional centres. A spokesperson said while the government was touting the jabs as safe and effective for kids, there was no real evidence to support this claim.

Everything old is new again with local fossil ﬁnd A NEW but very old fossil site has been unearthed at McGrath’s Flat near Gulgong, proving parts of our wider central NSW region were once a temperate rainforest, with abundant and rich plant and animal life. A team of Aussie scientists discovered and investigated the new fossil site containing what they say are “superb examples” of fossilised animals and plants from the Miocene era, their findings being revealed this week in an industry publication, Science Advances. The site is one of only a handful of fossil sites in Australia that can be classified as a “Lagerstatte”, which is a site that contains fossils of exceptional quality. Over the past three years a team of researchers has been secretly excavating the site, discovering thousands of specimens including rainforest plants, insects, spiders, fish and a bird feather. The fossils formed between 11 and 16 million years ago and are important for understanding the history of the Australian continent. The findings reveal that many of the fossils found are new to science, and include trapdoor spiders, giant cicadas, wasps and a variety of fish. Until now it has been difficult to tell what these ancient ecosystems were like, according to the researchers, but the level of preservation at this new fossil site means that even small fragile organisms like insects turned into well-preserved fossils. ••• Right: University of New South Wales palaeontologist Dr Matthew McCurry holding a rock containing ancient fossils at McGraths Flat.

“It’s a team effort”: New councillors urged to work together THE enthusiasm was palpable as the new-look cohort of community representatives gathered to be formally inducted to their roles as councillors for Dubbo Regional Council, their excitement matched only by the pride of their families and friends who joined them to witness the re-signing of the oath and affirmation documents earlier this week. Gathering for their first official event outside the chamber, the newlook line-up followed the formalities with a celebratory morning tea, with Mayor Mathew Dickerson addressing the room for the first time in his “new” role, to which he is no stranger, having served as the last leader of the previous Dubbo City Council prior to its amalgamation with Wellington Council. Mayor Dickerson used the occasion to remind councillors that the effi-

cacy of the coming term will depend on everyone pulling together in a team effort. “The communities of Dubbo and Wellington have chosen us as a team, and that team is there to do the best thing for our community. Individual performances don’t matter on council and we won’t always agree on everything, but we have to work together to get the results that the community will remember. The new councillors will spend the next week in office participating in a number of key introductory workshops, with council’s CEO Murray Wood stressing that the provision of appropriate training for new, as well as experienced councillors, is “extremely important”. The first ordinary meeting of council will be held on Thursday January 27, at 5:30pm.

RECYCLE AND REUSE

Upcycling into Dubbo Works of art

Matt Rendell is hoping more people understand the importance of recycling, reusing and upcycling. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/EMY-LOU

By JOHN RYAN MATT Rendell grew up in the southern highlands in the tiny village of Exeter and says it was a great experience to live in a prestigious yet simple place. He attended the local school until Year 3 when he went to school in Moss Vale and at 16 moved down to Cooma with his family and lived there until he was 30 he tells Dubbo Photo News, explaining how he began his lifelong love affair with upcycling rejected and unused materials into usable and beautiful things. “When I was at school we struggled financially so my entrepreneur kicked in and I started making cat houses (for cat breeders) out of recycled ply-board and leftover paints. I’d do it in my lunch breaks in the woodwork room and at home after hours,” he said. “When I was at school, I decided I wanted to be a car spray painter and do up muscle cars and hotrods and I also wanted to be a carpenter and work on houses – it was there I set the theme of my work life which is up-cycling goods, building and renovating and restoring/building muscle-cars and

rat-rods.” Matt says his work career has been “crazy” across multiple arenas including maintenance, carpentry, building, car restorations and sales, pastoring and developing churches, belonging to multiple boards and management teams, developing and running youth and community centres, a couple of years in real estate, overseas missions work, supermarket stores management, a book distribution warehouse manager role, a digital printing company and a long-term personal mentor and lifecoach – that’s without including a bunch of side hustles. “My first restoration up-cycle was an old Werteim cast iron treadle sewing machine base converted to a hallway side table when I was about 13. I found this piece in my grandmother’s back shed and gave her $20 for it,” Matt said. He then realised the quality of the “old time” goods was far superior to the new build items and that set him on his way. “Myself and my first wife bought our first house when we were 17 and fitted a whole bunch of it out with up-cycled pieces built in the back garage. Back then it wasn’t

called up-cycling or re-purposing, but just straight up recycling goods. “I remember I built our bathroom vanity out of solid cedar panels I salvaged out of a large old wardrobe I bought for $50. It was literally one-piece cedar lengths that we cut down to make this federation style vanity – that was when I was 18, so nearly 30 yrs ago now. I’ve been doing this a long time.” A few years ago Dubbo Photo News did a feature on Matt’s involvement with Sydney’s Royal Easter Show where he was contracted to build dozens of furniture and decorative pieces from discarded materials. “We did that for four straight years, and it would take me three to four months to build the exhibition pieces,” he said. “How it started was I built a fully up-cycled glasshouse out of stained glass windows in the backyard of my house and had made friends with professional designer Deb De Jong who, with her husband, had started and established Fantastic Furniture, but had also been the host of Changing Rooms, the first lifestyle makeover show

that hit the Aussie TV screens. “She “loved loved” the glass house, and in a conversation with a good friend of hers who was the event co-ordinator of the Sydney Royal Easter Show, she showed off the glasshouse as a unique oneoff piece and it simply grew from there.” Up-cycling goods often takes double the time and Matt says the raw material has to be prepped and made ready for its new application or use, especially with timber where you need to de-nail and “clean-skin” the surfaces and anything that is weathered needs to be made solid and often made splinter-safe, while metal often needs to be de-flaked and sanded to spray or paint. “In doing this you get to study and see each and every piece for what it is, and in a sense, know where it will be used by working/ connecting with it – it’s hard work, but always has a great finish and wow factor if dressed and fitted where it is meant to go,” he says. “I decided I wanted to specialise in up-cycled and re-use/purpose fit-outs and over the last five years we have done multiple upcycled fit outs including a large

community hub and cafe in Narromine, a boutique cafe fit-out in Orange, an accountancy firm in Dubbo, and during 2021 we did two cafe fit-outs in Dubbo – The Harvest Central West in Palmer St with Georgia Stevens and Cacao House in Brisbane St. Matt is hoping people can understand through his works that the ongoing shortages created by the Covid pandemic can open the mainstream population to the need to re-use and not waste. “If you walk into Bunnings in Dubbo right now, there is no building timber currently stocked in the shelves and this may continue to happen,” he said. “The takeaway we need is to start having a greater value and fresh set of eyes to what we have sitting around as waste or no longer required for use. What we throw out because it’s use is finished for one reason may become a most valuable resource for the next project or purpose – it’s time we re-think about how we use and steward the resources that we have. “We need to desperately change how we approach the resources we have at hand.”

Dirty Dogs done dirt cheap By JOHN RYAN MELISSA Kerney loves her job and says the three and a half years she’s been operating the mobile Dirty Dawg Spa has been a happy time. She grew up in dubbo, attended Dubbo Public and Dubbo high before embarking on a career in the health sector. “I was working in health and our district was restructured so I was looking to do something different and I love dogs, always have so I thought it was a good time to do this,” she told Dubbo Photo News, remarking that one great advantage of the career change was the lessening of the paperwork burden. “A lot less paperwork involved, heaps less,” she laughed. And she loves the fact that at the end of each day, or the end of

each grooming job, she can look at what she’s accomplished in very real and simple terms. “You can see what you’ve done straightaway, you can see the difference in the dogs whereas working in health it takes forever for anything to be done and often you don’t ever see any end result, but in this job it’s so good to see the dogs happy and smiling.” Melissa believes her clients (the dogs, not the humans) have a healthy respect for the way they’re groomed, or not, and says a tidy-up can put pooches in a very positive mood. “I think it’s just that they know that attention is focussed on them, they tend to feel heaps better, I think they just enjoy being cleaned and pampered.” As with many businesses, the Covid restrictions hit Melissa’s operation hard but towards the end

of the lockdowns she says rules allowed dogs to receive “welfare” grooms for issues such as matted hair which could lead to health problems. “We weren’t allowed to actually groom for routine cases but if a dog needed a welfare groom then we were allowed to do it on advice from a vet,” she said. “It was mainly matted hair that created health risks for dogs, they’re uncomfortable and it can really be quite detrimental to their health or some dogs have double coats and they need to be groomed because of the heat.” Melissa says the best thing about the job is spending quality time with all the dogs. “I just love hanging out with them and spending time with them, getting to know their little personalities whilst they’re being groomed, that’s definitely my fa-

EMERGENCY REPORT NEWS OPINION AND ANALYSIS by JOHN RYAN

Snapshots of Crime I SPENT a few days at Lake Macquarie last week and what a beautiful place it is, but when I come back to Dubbo to have people telling me that crime here is out of control, it makes me think about my recent discussion with a police officer who recently moved here from that part of the world. It turns out the insurance premium for his car pretty much halved when he moved to Dubbo, so when you get spooked by fears of a local crime wave, in many categories we’re a whole lot better off than some places that seem more sedate. There’s a bit of property crime in town happening at the moment so it’s great to see Superintendent Danny O’Sullivan continuing his policy of posting all these stats to the Orana Mid Western police Facebook page – here’s the report from Monday, January 10 as an example of transparency when it comes to local law and order:

Probationary Constable Luke Dewberry was pleased to receive his Oath of Office from Superintendant Danny Sullivan.

Probationary Constable Harry Conn was another new officer who was handed his Oath of Office, a significant early milestone in the career for new police. PHOTOS: SUPPLIED

Crime Activity Report POLICE from the Orana Mid Western Police District are investigating nine property offences reported in the previous 24 hours. Six people were arrested and charged with various offences across our police district during this period. Anyone with information about criminal activity in the community is urged to contact Crime Stoppers: 1800 333 000 or https:// nsw.crimestoppers.com.au.

Darling Street fire I REALLY can’t praise our local firies enough, and this happens on pretty much a weekly basis in

or around Dubbo both with NSW Fire and Rescue crews in town and at car crashes and the like, or the Rural Fire Service (RFS) in the outlying areas. On Tuesday morning a number of local appliances rushed to Darling Street in South Dubbo where the front of an older weatherboard cottage was engulfed in flames. Thankfully no-one was injured in the blaze but there was a very real threat that the neighbouring wooden cottages, only a metre or so away from the burning building, could have gone up as well. The front of the home suffered extensive fire damage and the rest of the house suffered significant smoke damage. Well done to all concerned for getting the fire under control. Dubbo 280 Station Officer John Poulos told Dubbo Photo News that this fire shows what can happen, and how quickly disaster can unfold – he was keen to push the fire safety messages: “The fire crew did pretty well to knock the flames down and prevent it spreading to the houses on either side,” SO Poulos said. “We’d like to remind everyone that they should have at least one working smoke detector on every level of their home. It’s better to be safe than sorry.

“In older homes especially, it’s always a good idea to have an electrician check the wiring to ensure everything’s safe in that regard.”

Walgett break and enters POLICE are appealing for information following a spate of break and enters in Walgett over the past couple of weeks. About 4am on January 2 a service station on Fox Street was broken into with a number of items stolen, including food and cigarettes. It was hit again the next day and yet again on January 8, with food and cigarettes stolen each time. Police are also investigating a break-in at a sporting club on the Castlereagh Highway, on January 10 where two people forced entry to the club and smashed a vending machine, allegedly stealing a number of items before fleeing. Police would like to speak to two people in relation to the incident, the first person is shown wearing a red hooded jumper, black jacket and pants, black gloves and carrying a black backpack. The second person is shown wearing a grey hooded jumper, black jacket, green camouflage pants, and carrying a black backpack.

Investigators urge any witnesses, any motorists who may have dash-cam vision or anyone with information to contact Walgett Police Station or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

New “baby blues” SUPERINTENDENT Danny Sullivan APM had the great pleasure of presenting the Oath of Office to a couple of new probationary constables in the past week. At their attestation ceremony newly sworn in police cite their Oath or Affirmation of Office and during their first deployment that oath is presented to them as a milestone in the early part of their careers. Congratulations to Probationary Constables Luke Dewberry and Harry Conn.

Wet fire season THE wet weather and green landscapes are a soggy but a pleasant contrast to just a few years ago when the countryside was parched and tinder dry as the east coast went up in flames. But this current lush growth can present its own dangers with a massive build up of potentially flammable material so it’s great to see the Orana RFS getting out and about to check out local land-

Drug court A 29-year-old woman has faced Dubbo Local Court on drug charges. Last Saturday police responded to concerned calls regarding a Mitsubishi Outlander parked on

the side of the Castlereagh Highway, about 2km south of Coonamble and upon arrival officers found the woman asleep inside. The 29-year-old was spoken to before the vehicle was searched, with police allegedly seizing $26,345 in cash along with methylamphetamine, cannabis and drug paraphernalia. She was arrested and taken to Coonamble Police Station where she was charged with two counts of possess prohibited drug, supply prohibited drug and goods in personal custody suspected being stolen.

Car fires up like a rocket A VEHICLE was captured on video going up in flames and smoke on John Glenn Place during the night earlier this week. It’s pretty sad when so much valuable property is destroyed like that.

Drugged, sexually assaulted, charges laid POLICE have charged a man and a woman after another woman was allegedly drugged and sexually assaulted in the state’s north west on New Year’s Eve. On January 1, a 26-year-old woman attended Walgett Police Station and reported that she had been drugged, detained and sexually assaulted by a man and woman over a number of hours the previous night – she was taken to hospital for treatment and underwent a SAIK (Sexual Assault Investigation Kit). Following extensive inquiries investigators stopped a truck travelling through Bourke shortly before 4pm on January 9 and during a subsequent search of the vehicle, police located and seized methylamphetamine, cannabis, numerous electronic devices, and other items relevant to the investigation. The truck’s occupants – a 50-year-old man and a 39-yearold woman both from Queensland – were arrested and taken to Bourke Police Station, where they were both charged with six counts of aggravated sex assault-offender in company with other person/s. Additionally, the man was charged with two counts of possess prohibited drug. As investigations under Strike Force Aiver continue, police have identified a second person who believes they may have been drugged within the Cumborah area on the same night and are

urging anyone with information to contact police. It used to be that these sorts of date-rape crimes were things that happened in metro areas, but it appears that’s not the case. These days, when you’re out drinking, anywhere, you need to be super careful of your surroundings.

Wello guns stolen POLICE are hunting for information and are hoping members of the public can help them to find a number of firearms were stolen during a break and enter at Wellington. About 9.30am on January 3 police received reports of a break-in at a home on Marsh Street and were told that nine rifles, two shotguns, ammunition, a compound bow and a safe were stolen from the home. Officers established a crime scene, which was examined by specialist forensic police, and have commenced an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the incident. As part of inquiries, police are urging anyone who may have witnessed the incident or suspicious activity in the area – or who has dash-cam or mobile phone footage from the area during the mentioned period – to contact Wellington Police or Crime Stoppers

Westpac chopper in the air LATE in the afternoon of January 4 the Westpac Rescue Chopper was tasked by New South Wales Ambulance on an urgent medical retrieval to Coonabarabran Hospital to transfer a 60-year-old male to Dubbo Hospital – he was suffering a medical condition requiring specialist treatment. The patient was stabilised by the Helicopter Critical Care Medical Team prior to airlifting him to Dubbo. Just a day later the chopper was tasked to Ulan to assist a 40-yearold female who’d fallen and injured her leg whilst bush walking in rugged terrain on a hiking track.

The helicopter crew winch inserted the aircraft Critical Care Paramedic to the victim and she was treated before being winched up into the helicopter. The chopper then transported her to a waiting road ambulance to take her to Mudgee Hospital in a stable condition. It’s so good to see our own rescue/medivac chopper after all these years – looking at all the work it does, you wonder how we managed without it. It’s a similar scenario to the vast majority of people back in the 1990s who thought the campaign for a Royal flying Doctor Base at Dubbo was pie-in-the-sky.  Send your news tips to john.ryan@panscott.com.au or 0429 452 245 txt is best

Try a little kindness: Patience our top priority By BROOKE JACOBSON RETAIL and healthcare staff are being pushed to their limits right now and we’re being reminded to be kind. Western NSW Local Health District (WNSWLHD) acting chief executive, Mark Spittal, has warned people not to take their COVID-19 frustrations out on local staff. “Every single one of our staff (members) have been under incredible pressure for almost two years as a result of the pandemic,” he said. “They deserve nothing but respect and gratitude. “Unfortunately, some people are frustrated about the time it’s taking for COVID-19 test results to come back and they are taking that out on our staff and that is not acceptable. “If you are waiting for a result, don’t call the health service where you were tested – the staff there can’t make your results come back any faster and people abusing them isn’t going to change that.” COVID-19 test results are currently taking 72 hours or longer to come back, as service providers do their best to keep pace with demand. “Regardless of why you’re interacting with our team, please show some patience and respect, because they are doing the absolute best job they can for you, and for all of the communities in our district,” Mr Spittal said. “We understand it’s frustrating,

but I guarantee you that the person in front of you in the hospital, or who answered the phone when you called, is only trying to help. “Do not take your frustration out on them.” The Australian National University (ANU) released a report late last year looking at the impact of COVID on the retail industry. Titled, Pandemic Pressures: job security and customer relations for retail workers, the report found customer abuse and fears about job security spiked during the pandemic. “Employees in retail, fast-food and distribution sectors constitute at least 11 per cent of the Australian workforce,” the report said. “From job losses, to reduced hours, to increased hostility and abuse from customers, to the heightened risk of exposure to the virus, workers in these sectors have been among the most affected by mental health and wellbeing issues associated with

the pandemic. “With women, young people and other marginalised groups disproportionally represented in the retail, fast food and distribution sectors, the pandemic’s impact on the sector highlights the already fragile socioeconomic position of many members of these groups.” Many retail workers have reported stress over issues such as checking the vaccine status of customers, or customers becoming abusive over product, and staff shortages. Secretary of the SDA NSW – the union for retail, fast food and warehouse workers – Bernie Smith, said an urgent supply of free rapid antigen tests for essential workers such as supermarket staff was needed to keep stock on the shelves. “We’re not battling with a shortage of everyday goods, we’re battling with a shortage of the staff in warehouses, transport and shops needed to get the goods on

display,” he said. “We need to see free rapid antigen tests made available to essential works to enable them to get safely back to work.” Mr Smith added it was important for shoppers to remain calm and respectful when dealing with already under-pressure workers. “Supermarket and other retail workers are doing the best they can under incredibly difficult circumstances, they deserve to be treated with respect,” he said. “Retail workers have worked incredibly hard to provide people with essential items during the pandemic, despite being probe to contracting COVID-19 due to the nature of their work. “We’re urging everyone to remember to treat our retail and other essential workers with the respect they deserve.” If this story has raised any issues for you, please call Lifeline on: 13 11 14.

Lack of investment coming home to roost in housing crisis IF you’ve tried to rent a home in Dubbo recently, you’ll know the vacancy rates are at a record low, a trend that’s being reflected across the nation, prompting a call for urgent investment in social housing. The Everybody’s Home campaign says Australia’s national vacancy has decreased by nearly a third over the past 12 months and is currently sitting at 1.7 per cent, with that rate expected to decrease even further over the course of the coming month. A stronger demand for housing in January means the vacancy rate will continue to drop, meaning those most at risk of homelessness in our communities are facing an even bleaker prospect of finding affordable housing. The campaign says there will be a shortfall of more than 200,000 households across the nation that will need social or affordable housing, and that the situation is particularly dire for those on low incomes. It’s calling on the federal government to urgently invest in social housing to help ease the crisis.

“Don’t panic”: Health service prepared for case numbers By BROOKE JACOBSON LOCAL area health officials have reassured the community of Dubbo and the region that despite an increase in COVID cases, there is no need to panic. A spokesperson for the Western NSW Local Health District (WNSWLHD) said they had been “prepared for the potential increase of transmission for some time”. “As restrictions eased and transmission rose across the state, transmission was expected to rise in Western NSW too,” the spokesperson said. “We are fortunate to have strong vaccination coverage

across the district, with more than 95 per cent of the eligible population (aged) 16 and over fully vaccinated. “Vaccination is our best protection against transmission and serious illness if transmis-

sion occurs. “We encourage everyone to make sure they are fully vaccinated and to book in for their booster shot as soon as they are eligible.” The spokesperson added the

majority of people who tested positive for COVID could safely manage at home, while isolating to protect the community. “Most people who test positive for COVID-19 do not need hospital care and WNSWLHD’s COVID care in the Community program is able to provide support to those managing safely at home,” they said. “Through continued pandemic planning, which includes staff and workload management, the District remains well-prepared to provide safe and appropriate care to all patients who require hospitalisation, including those who have tested positive for COVID-19.”

I’ve been exposed to COVID-19 – what next? z If you live with someone who has COVID, or if you have spent a long time with someone with COVID (for example driving long distance, stayed with them overnight, or spent a lengthy period of time with them indoors) your risk of contracting COVID is classified as “high”. You must isolate for seven days from the last time you were in contact with the COVID positive person. Take a Rapid Antigen Test (RAT) as soon as possible, and again on

day six. If all tests are negative, you can leave isolation after seven days. If you get a positive result, continuing isolating and follow the health advice about managing COVID at home. z If you spent a short amount of time with someone who has COVID, or if that time was spent outdoors, your risk of contracting COVID is “low to moderate”. Monitor for symptoms and if you have any, get a Rapid Antigen Test (RAT) im-

mediately. If you do not have symptoms, get a RAT as soon as possible and then again on day six. If you get a positive result, you should isolate and follow the health advice about managing COVID at home. z I’ve tested positive to COVID-19 – now what? If you are under 65, have had two doses of the COVID vaccine, do not suffer from chronic health conditions and are not pregnant, you can safely manage COVID at home. For most people, this

will be a mild illness and can be managed with: bed rest, regular paracetamol and ibuprofen; throat lozenges; staying hydrated. z Call your GP or the NSW Health COVID-19 at Home Support Line on 1800 960 933 if you are: pregnant; obese; have severe or complex medical conditions; diabetic; immunocompromised (including if you have cancer); dealing with severe mental illness.

What are the rules? Current COVID restrictions in place across NSW All people over the age of 12 must wear a face mask: z In indoor areas (shops, libraries etc) z While waiting for public transport z While on public transport, including taxis and ride-shares z If you are working at a hospitality venue z On an aircraft COVID-19 Safe QR check-ins are required at: z Retail premises z Food and premises z Hospitality venues z Hairdressing and beauty salons z Gyms – except dance, yoga, pilates, gymnastics and martial arts studios z Hospitals z Residential care facilities z Places of worship z Funerals, memorials and gatherings afterward z Nightclubs z Casinos z Indoor music festivals with more than 1000 people Vaccination evidence is only required if you attend an indoor music festival with more than 1000 people, or if you work in certain industries. Singing and dancing at hospitality venues and nightclubs is not permitted other than for: z A performer who is performing or rehearsing at the premises z A person who is instructing, or being instructed in singing or dancing on the premises z A wedding service or reception that is being held at a hospitality venue, including a function centre Drinking indoors can be seated or standing and density limits apply in indoor areas of hospitality venues and nightclubs.

Kids’ jabs roll out from this week By BROOKE JACOBSON CHILDREN from Dubbo and across the region will be able to get their first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine from today (Thursday, January 13) Children aged between five and 11-years-old are now eligible for the vaccine with parents urged to make a booking as soon as possible. The bulk of the children’s vaccination program will be delivered by general practitioners and pharmacies, along with Aboriginal Medical Services and Western NSW Local Health District’s (WNSWLHD) vaccination hubs and mobile clinics. WNSWLHD acting chief executive, Mark Spittal, said hubs in Bathurst, Orange and Dubbo would be delivering vaccinations to children, alongside the adult vaccination and booster programs. “At vaccination hubs, parents and carers will need to book ahead for children’s vaccines and to make life a bit easier, they’ll be able to book both the first and second shots for their kids at the same time,” he said. Children aged between five and 11 will receive two, specially-sized doses of the Pfizer vaccine, eight weeks apart. “The local health district’s vaccination services will play a small but pivotal role in the roll out of this phase of the

vaccination program, including pop-up clinics in smaller areas,” Mr Spitttal said. “Our children’s vaccination service will kick off on Tuesday, January 11 with a threeday stint in Mudgee that will include around 50 spaces a day for children.” Mudgee, Cowra, Walgett, Parkes, Cobar, Tottenham, Tullamore, Trundle and Trangie, will host clinics, with mobile services targeting smaller, and more remote communities. “Our hubs in Bathurst, Orange and Dubbo will have their first appointments on Thursday, January 13,” Mr Spittal said.

“Those hubs will operate six days a week and will have space for more than 30 children each, per day. “That will account for at least 500 children a week able to be vaccinated through our services alone, with hundreds more delivered through the primary care sector. “Spots in our hubs are already starting to fill up quickly, so we encourage parents and carers to look at all their vaccination options, along with our clinics.” Mr Spittal said there were several important reasons to ensure children were vaccinated against COVID-19 including:

• COVID-19 can still be a serious illness for children including possible longterm effects, although many children will experience relatively mild symptoms • Vaccinating children will help to reduce transmission among family and friends in the community, which is particularly important for vulnerable people of all ages • Vaccination will help to allow children to involved in school and social activities For more information go to: www.wnswlhd.health.nsw. gov.au or to find your nearest vaccination provider, go to: www.health.gov.au

Let Kintyre Lodge help you rethink respite The primary purpose of Kintyre Lodge Dubbo is to provide high quality aged care residency services but for the many primary carers living at home supporting their loved ones, Kintyre Lodge can assist you too. Our respite service is key to helping you take a well-earned break. It’s common for carers to put their own well-being last and to feel that a break is not deserved. You may just feel too tired to make the effort or aren’t sure how to book respite. It’s important, however, you give yourself time to recharge those batteries, get those nagging errands or jobs done, take time to nurture other relationships in your life and focus on your own goals - to nurture you. It’s also perfectly natural and common to feel the care of

your loved one is all your responsibility all the time yet without regular breaks the quality of that care and your own wellbeing can suffer. Another hesitation you may feel is being worried about leaving your loved one in a new environment but at Kintyre Lodge we regularly welcome Dubbo region residents for respite and are very well prepared to ensure your loved one – and you – have a positive experience. Your loved one will stay in a private en-suite room and enjoy freshly prepared meals, and morning and afternoon teas which are all made on site by our resident chef. They will be cared for by registered nursing staff who are on site 24/7 and will have ample opportunity to enjoy activities and interactions with our permanent residents under the caring and experienced supervision of our

creative activities officer. We can guarantee you will have peace of mind during your break, which might be a few hours, overnight, a weekend or longer, knowing your loved one is enjoying quality care in comfortable surrounds, eating exceptional meals and making new friends in a welcoming, fun environment. Too often families wait until they’re in emotional crisis and are forced to ask for help. Please get in touch today to book a tour of the Kintyre Lodge and respite facilities so when the need arises, you’ve already met us, seen the surroundings, have had time to process what you need to do to get prepared and understand completely what we can and want to do for you.

Respite guests get a warm welcome into the Kintyre Lodge community, even more so now restrictions have eased. If you would like to know more about joining the Kintyre community, either independent living or residential aged care, please contact us.

Which test do I need? PCR or RAT? A PCR COVID-19 test is administered at a COVID testing hub or fever clinic, while a Rapid Antigen Test (RAT) can be done at home. If you have COVID symptoms and have received a positive PCR test, no further testing is required. Similarly, if you have a positive result from a rapid test, you do not need to get a PCR swab to confirm you have COVID unless you are:  A person at high risk for health complications such as a pregnant woman, Indigenous person, unvaccinated person over 16 years of age, or immunosuppressed  A worker, resident or patient in a high-risk setting that has been asked to get a PCR swab from a facility such as healthcare, aged care, disability care, correctional facility, or your GP You must self-isolate at home

for seven days from the date you got tested, even if you are fully vaccinated. This means staying at home and remaining separate from other people as best you

can. You must tell everyone you live with you have COVID-19 and your household contacts should get a rapid test as soon as possible. You must also tell your work-

place or school you have tested positive to COVID-19. If you, or someone you live with, (particularly children) has tested positive for COVID and becomes seriously unwell with the following symptoms, call Triple Zero 000 immediately and inform the operator the person has COVID-19.  Fever above 39 degrees Celsius which is not responding to treatment  Breathlessness  Vomiting or diarrhoea  Unable to stand or walk  Dehydrated Call the NSW Health COVID-19 Care at Home Support Line on: 1800 960 933 (8.30am to 8.30pm) or the National Coronavirus Helpline on: 1800 020 080 (24 hours a day, seven days a week) if you’re looking for further advice.

School bells due to ring on time state-wide By BROOKE JACOBSON SCHOOLS across NSW, including here in Dubbo and across the region, are racing to be open in time for the start of Term 1. NSW Department of Education Secretary, Georgina Harrisson, said school-based staff would now be required to have a third booster shot of the COVID-19 vaccine. “As we prepare for the start of Term 1, our focus remains on keeping our staff and students

safe,” she said. “Adding a booster shot to the vaccine mandate will help maintain confidence that schools are a safe place to learn and work.” NSW Premier Dominic Perrottet has reiterated his plan to have students start the school year on time. “I am incredibly confident we will get kids back into the classroom on day one, term one,” he said. “That doesn’t mean I don’t ex-

pect there to be bumps along the way.” In the past two years, NSW students have lost a semester – half a year – of face-to-face learning, with seven weeks of home learning in 2020 and 13 weeks (or more for some schools) in 2021. Ms Harrisson said she wanted to reassure parents that planning for the start of the 2022 school year was well under way with a focus on ensuring the continuity of learning for all students, while

ensuring staff and student safety. She also encouraged parents to book their children in for vaccination ahead of the return to school. Students are due back at school on January 28, or February 2, depending on the school. Other states have chosen to delay the start of the school year due to the ongoing Omicron cases. Queensland students, who were due to start school on January 24, will now not be starting Term 1 until February 7.

IT’S A RECORD! Jumping out of a plane thousands of feet above the ground (even with a parachute) would be terrifying for many. But for KEBE Keith Edward Snyder (USA), this freefall isn’t terrifying at all. For him, it’s almost tranquil. KEBE is one of the few skysurfers in the world – people who take the pursuit of skydiving to the next level by strapping a board to their feet and “surfing” the air. After years of refining his skysurfing skills, KEBE decided to attempt the Guinness World Record for the most helicopter spins while skysurfing on November 1, against the striking backdrop of the Pyramids of Giza. KEBE jumped from a height of 13,500 feet, as he had done so many times before, but this time he was focussed on achieving a world record. He is well known in the sport after winning national championships and being an alternate for the X Games, before the category was removed from the event in 2000.

The “Djoker” won and Australia was the punchline Tijana Birdjan ❚ OPINION “RULES are rules” except when Scott Morrison was granted an exemption to return to Sydney for Father’s Day despite prohibitions which would require him to isolate for 14 days. The Prime Minister stating “Rules are rules” when addressing number one tennis player Novak Djokovic in his twitter post contradicts the Australian political sphere when politicians themselves are granted access. On Monday, January 10, Djokovic’s court win made the Morrison government and the rest of Australia look foolish through the global lens. “Rules are rules”, and Djokovic had followed the advice from Belgrade to Melbourne, where border security was waiting for him. If “rules are rules” why wasn’t Czech tennis player Renata Voracova investigated initially when Novak was? Since the pandemic started, Australia has been an isolated outlier, but when the rest of the world is moving on, we are still restricted by our internal borders. Not only are we restricted with-

OPINION & ANALYSIS

THE TOONS’ VIEWS

in our own states for two years, but asylum seekers have been restricted within immigration detention centres for almost a decade. Djokovic spent several days confined in Melbourne’s Park Hotel only to highlight the nation’s appalling laws over migration policies. The entire global network watched Djokovic being detained, bringing light to our poor government system and refugee centres. By publicising the conditions he lived in there by using the words “disgusting” and “cruel”, I hope there are further inquiries into the treatment of asylum seekers who plead for only refuge in our multicultural land. His anti-vax stance has unintentionally exposed Australia’s xenophobic policies and our leader’s fear of migrants. What would’ve been a tenth Australian Open win and cemented history for one of the greatest tennis players of all time resulted in a political game due to the upcoming federal election. The only win Australians had from this outcome is knowing that our court system is independent from our policy and law making. Being born in Serbia myself, I idolise Novak Djokovic the same way most Australians view Ash Barty. He is kind, honest, a good sportsman and cares a lot for the vulnerable community.

To my Serbian nation, he celebrates a new wave of empowerment in the way the world views Serbia through historic national complexities, however, I do recognise the pain of being fully vaccinated and still having to comply with daily restriction and border changes. I am fully vaccinated and am passionate that everyone should roll up their sleeve but, respectfully, everyone has a choice – especially when it comes to their own bodies. By permitting an exemption based on having contracted COV-

ID in the previous six months, the federal government cannot use the term “rules are rules” when they can’t even figure out the rules between their own governments. Also being an Australian citizen, I understand the national anger caused by daily restriction amendments and constant lockdowns, but Novak should not be the person to target our anger towards. The two years of built up frustration should be directed with our government. We have complied with snap lockdowns, border closures, curfews, vaccina-

tions and boosters – what more do they want? Through the constant anxiety, lack of financial security and uncertainty of the delicate future, the government has given up the fight to survive this pandemic. Who do we blame? Our border security? Our national government? Tennis Australia? Or do we just forget about this? z Serbian born Adelaide-expat Tijana Birdjan is Dubbo Photo News’ newest full-time journalist, having moved to Dubbo just this week. She’s also a tennis fan.

When justice lies in the exception, not the rule Stephen Lawrence ❚ OPINION THE setting aside of the Djokovic visa cancellation was inevitable. I knew that as soon as I read the submissions prepared by his lawyers and posted online over the weekend. The Commonwealth eventually consented to the decision being quashed on a particular technical ground, being that Djokovic wasn’t given enough time to be heard from before the cancellation occurred. I suspect determination of the other more substantial grounds could have been even more embarrassing, especially the allegation that the Minister “irrationally” interpreted the health advice on when recent Covid-19 infection increased vaccination risks. It’s another fail for a thoroughly politicised Home Affairs Department that so often seems to have an outcome in mind before an administrative process is undertaken. Australia’s determination to keep out unvaccinated players sits in contrast to some other comparable countries. France has also made up its mind in advance, having publicly announced Djokovic will be welcome at the French Open under a special “health bubble” policy for significant events. At the time of writing (Monday night) Djokovic is free to play in

the Australian Open. The decision however does not protect him from future cancellation action and the Minister’s lawyers have already flagged that possibility. Complex legal and political considerations will no doubt come into play. Renewed cancellation action would be lengthy (Djokovic has well and truly “lawyered up” and will no doubt demand an extended period to be properly heard on what are complex issues) and properly re-considering the matter may take so long that the proper conduct of the Australian Open is put in jeopardy. Australia’s reputation has already been battered and there are already news stories suggesting foreign countries are keen to take the fourth grand slam away from us. My gut tells me further cancellation shouldn’t be pursued, but if the Prime Minister reads that inaction will damage him in the polls, it is probably likely. Some interesting material has circulated in the media this week suggesting Djokovic’s claim to have been diagnosed in December with Covid-19 might have been

false. These matters would not have been before the court that made this week’s decision. Such challenges to the legality of administrative decisions are process-based and the court can generally only receive evidence and material that was before the decision maker. Such material however could be considered by the Minister in any second cancellation effort. As a barrister specialising in migration law (among a few practice areas) I make a living in part on the errors of officials in applying the Migration Act 1958. I regularappear in the federal courts for a ly people whose visas have been re-

but the case to my mind raised a far more interesting question about whether Australia is justified in apparently applying a blanket ban on unvaccinated travellers who cannot make out to the satisfaction of the Commonwealth a medical exemption from vaccination. Migration law (funnily enough much like public health policy) is all about rules qualified by exceptions. My initial reaction to hearing of the action against Djokovic was that the economic and social interest in allowing the proper operation of an internationally significant event like the Australian Open probably warranted some mitigation of the vaccination rules, so long as any necessary special caution could be applied. The bloke is the world number one after all and millions of people want to see him play. Nothing I have heard since has changed my mind. Sometimes the justice of a situation (and the public interest) is found in the exception not the rule. Sometimes public officials have to bear accusations of special or partial treatment in order to achieve such an outcome. The Australian Open is crying out for such an approach, just as the French are doing. I hope the Australian community doesn’t confuse pandering to a mob with political courage.

fused or cancelled, where you can only succeed if you can show the decision is affected by “jurisdictional error”, a complex concept, but basically a serious error of law or fact that impacted the decision that was against your client. Often the stakes are incredibly high in these matters. The Djokovic matter on the other hand would have been a dream brief for the lawyers involved; win and you get paid and your client plays tennis, lose and you get paid and your client returns to his millionaire lifestyle and plays tennis somewhere else. z Stephen Lawrence is a Dubbo The Djokovic case raised some Barrister whose specialties include interesting technical legal issues, International Law and Migration Law.

We never saw ourselves living in a retirement village, but look at us now, we’re thriving.

Oak Tree Retirement Village residents Jan and David

Making 2022 the year of you As we embark on 2022, it’s important to think about how you’re going to put yourself first and what changes this will mean for you in the new year. If you’ve been weighing up retirement options, there’s never been a better time to start planning and securing your future. If certainty, security, less home maintenance, and keeping your independence in a relaxed lifestyle are all important factors for you, one of Oak Tree’s boutique retirement villages could be the perfect fit. It’s time to put yourself first After spending years caring for others and working hard, retirement is the time where you can sit back and enjoy all you’ve earned. Make a bucket list of the things you’d like to achieve and places you’d like to visit, and with the newfound freedom and time you’ll have after moving into a village, you can start ticking them off! Oak Tree’s lifestyle offering means you have the luxury of spending more time doing what you love. Since making the move, residents Jan and David Allen often find themselves having a roll on the village bowling green, while Jan also attends exercise and arts and crafts classes run at the village. “We never saw ourselves living in a retirement village, but look at us now, we’re thriving.” If maintenance of the large family home is becoming too much for you to manage, you’ll no longer have to burden family members

with the task. Instead, you can spend quality time with them relaxing in your villa or enjoying the village facilities. More time for what matters Having less to worry about means you can dedicate more time to the things that enrich your life like hobbies and travel. Oak Tree residents Jan and David were apprehensive about making the move at ﬁrst, but now can’t see themselves living anywhere else. “David was reluctant to move into a retirement village at ﬁrst. Our old home was just too beautiful to leave. But now we’re here and settled we’ve both said we won’t be going anywhere else.” Jan is a long-time artist with a passion for painting. Since moving into the village, she has more time than ever to spend painting landscapes from photographs she took when she and her husband David travelled Australia in their caravan. They now have quite the collection of paintings from all of the

destinations they visited over the years. “We knew we were onto a good thing on that very ﬁrst visit, and we were right. It was just as well we did go back with our deposit. There were other people due to look at it after us and I’m certain they would have bought it if we hadn’t.” Make 2022 the year you put yourself ﬁrst and start securing your dream retirement. If simplicity, certainty, and more time for what matters are part of your new year resolution, then take the opportunity to visit a village with your family and experience the Oak Tree difference for yourself. This new year, your new life awaits you!

ing short staffed and with supplies being hit and miss and people generally on edge. And thumbs down to the people who are not treating the check-out people and shelf packing staff with respect and patience. Have a bit of humanity. We’re all completely over it, but there’s no need for rudeness.

ity to do this.

Thumbs Up to the professional service at Harry’s Menswear. Leanne was knowledgeable, helpful and she and Peter have a wide range of good quality menswear. Lucky to have this shop in Dubbo, so we can “Buy from the Bush”. It’s a pleasure to shop there, thank you.

& Thumbs Up to Steve Evans and the professional staff at the Covid vaccination clinic at the showground.

I appreciated being able to have my booster there. Well done and thank you.

Thumbs Down to the thrill seeker driver who overtook me on the Old Dubbo Road last Saturday doing at least 150km. I was sitting on 100 and he shot past me and was out of sight within seconds. This driver is a menace to other road users.

Thumbs Up to Kat at Dubbo Family Doctors who went absolutely above and beyond her duties to try to secure Covid vaccination boosters for two elderly patients well done and thank you.

Thumbs Up to Customer Service Officer Justine of Dubbo K-Mart. I was recently served by her when trying to ﬁnd items. Although she was obviously busy, she went out of her way to help me with a smile and her cheery, efficient manner is an asset to the store.

Thumbs Up and very happy new year to the person/people with fantastic imagination and artistry who have done the chalk drawings along the western pathway of the Macquarie River. What a nice surprise on an early morning bike ride. Good luck, I hope you have the best year ever.

Thumbs Up to Chris Fallon who comes to your house while you’re on holidays to look after your pets and put the rubbish bins out. What a great service it is and far more convenient and cheaper than having to put your pets in care. Thumbs Up to the friendly efficient young man at & the Dubbo Vacuum Cleaner specialists.

Buninyong celebrates Nell turns 90 Christmas in the park

years young

Contributed by LORNA BRENNAN AROUND 80 Buninyong School as Community Centre playgroup members gathered at Wahroonga Park on a lovely December evening before Christmas to celebrate the end of another 'interesting' year. Families brought along their own picnics and everyone relaxed, chatted and explored the lovely play space. Dubbo and District Pipe Band energetically entertained us with some lively seasonal tunes, much to the delight of the crowd and many other park goers who joined in. The Great Buninyong Christmas Bake-Off competition was hotly contested by a number of talented members and the judges had a hard time choosing the winners. Whist Santa was unable to attend in person this year, his very able assistant Piper Dave stood in and distributed gifts to the little ones. With the evening's perfect weather and amazingly no mozzies, that brought us to the end of 2021 for Buninyong SaCC, but we will be back again in 2022 with more fun and games for families with 0-5-year-olds. For more information join our Facebook page – Buninyong Public School – NSW DoE SaCC.

NELL is 90 wonderful years young, and her friends at Horizons Village wanted to share a big happy birthday wish for her through a shout out from Dubbo Photo News. The little birdie who told us of the milestone birthday says Nell came to Australia in early 1950 from Holland, and is much loved by her husband Tom and their cat. She’s still enjoying life to the full and is very active, attending yoga classes twice a week. Happy birthday, Nell!

COMPLETE EACH GRID WITH NUMBERS FROM 1 TO 6, KEEPING IN MIND THAT: - a number can only appear once per row - a number can only appear once per column - a number can only appear once in each box of 6 squares

MEGA MAZE

SPOT THE DIFFERENCE

SUDOKU EXTRA

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

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

Ducks farewell for two valued members By GEOFF MANN LAST Sunday the Dubbo Vets Swimming Club gathered to pay tribute to Teresa Greenwood who had inspired all in her battle to overcome cancer in recent years. Teresa and Bill have been regular swimmers and participated in Ducks trips to the coast as well as Nyngan, Narromine, Forbes and Lightning Ridge and the effervescent smile of the wife, mother

and grandmother will be sadly missed. “We shall always remember her happy laugh and willingness to help,” long-time friend and fellow swimmer Nicole Johnstone wrote. On another level, the Ducks wished all the best to Brett Schloeffel who is off to Melbourne to further his career in radiotherapy diagnostics. He has been a campaigner for the prevention of ovarian cancer following the death of his

mother, Nola in recent years. Brett’s father Brian and brother Andrew have been a ‘force’ on the Duck pond for years with their good-heartedness and dry sense of humour. Brian declared on Sunday that “Ned Kelly was alive and kicking” when Dave Sparkes declared himself as the winner of the first trophy race of the year – the Hendersons Menswear Monthly Medal. “There was a collective

shaking of heads as well,” Judy Walsh smiled. Once again it seems the Christmas and New Year break has resulted in plenty of ‘breakers’ and some very slow times, especially in the 100 metres Freestyle. The Ducks are now in hard training for the Western Districts Carnival at Nyngan (Feb 13th) and preparations are underway for the follow up AIF Championships at Coffs Harbour in March.

MEL POCKNALL

Cycles of glory IN an amazing weekend on both the velodrome and the road, the Dubbo Cycle Club has made a great start to 2022 with some very respectable performances at a national level and claiming the first medal of the year. To kick off the action on Friday Isabell Russell contested the National Junior Track Series at the Disc Velodrome in Melbourne. Racing with the best in the nation at a carnival series shared between Brisbane, Melbourne and virtually, Isabelle ran 4th in the Scratch Race, 1st in her Tempo race and a gutsy ride in the Pointscore saw her take a hard-fought 2nd Place. With a second overall behind Nicole Duncan from Central Coast by the end of the first day, it was an excellent rush of points for “Izzy” in the National Point score series. With a 4th in the Elimination and 6th in the Scratch race, the sprint to follow do not suit an endurance athlete like Isabelle, so points were hard to come by. This would not however be the end of the proceedings for Isabelle swapping her track bike for her road

bike and joining her teammate Kurt Eather where both riders arrived in Geelong to compete in the combined Victorian State Criterium championships and the Lexus Bay Crit Series. Saturday saw Kurt Eather start with the race with Australian team members pro signed athletes for the fastest Criterium event that is held in Australia. At speeds well over 60km/hr and tight cornering, Kurt snatched a third in the first sprint and an amazing second place to back that up in the next race, setting up to lead out another teammate over 600m out from the finish. Kurt set sail but unfortunately, the lead-out was fierce and Kurt realized he has lost contact with the team mate he was leading out, he had to continue on after spending all that energy. Digging deep Kurt has delivered an amazing 4th place against most of the elite riders in the nation. On Sunday Isabelle returned to competition to contest the Victorian Criterium Championship and after a very fast race covering multiple attacks the race ended in a

gruelling uphill slugfest well suited to her, finishing on the heels of National Track series leader Nicole Duncan from the central coast to take a brilliant Silver Medal. This fantastic performance delivered the Dubbo Cycle Clubs Its first medal of 2022. In the afternoon and through a rough and tumble race Kurt Eather came away with 7th place and 5th overall and 7th in the Sprint Ace Competition. An excellent result

for Kurt and Isabelle. Riders, family and support teams will now converge on Ballarat to cheer on fellow teammates Haylee Fuller, Ben Anderson, Dylan Eather, Emily Williams and Kurt Eather to Contest the 2022 National Road Titles from January 12 – 16. All riders have been training incredibly hard for so long with the support of coaches and even though there is immense competition in front of each of them,

they will throw everything at each event and no matter the outcome are champions all. Crit racing returned to Dubbo with members having an enjoyable morning with some fantastic performances from Harry Weeks and Bella Weeks with Dylan Eather too strong for the field. Guest rider from Newcastle Nathan Johns joined us and enjoyed the racing along with riders of all abilities that meet each Sunday.

From the greens – 2022 and playing for the trophy Contributed by PISTOL PETE DUBBO’S Combination Bowlers may not be up there with Usman, Pat, Davey, “Bolo”and the Aussie cricketers but we are just as enthusiastic about being on “the green strip”! Last Sunday we had 30 bowlers on the rinks for our first “Sundee Sesh” of the year. In 2022, RSL Combo Bowlers will be playing for a perpetual trophy that congratulates a bowler for attendance, weekly wins and overall wins throughout the year. The trophy comes with a cash prize, with second and third placings also awarded with some cash. There will be more info as the year progresses. Although heavy rains fell upon the greens during the week, the synthetic surface played as good

as it gets and everyone was able to roll good bowls down the rinks. Gordon Lummis with Roger Shirwin & Bryan O’Sullivan were determined to put Cheryl Storch, Pete Ruzans & Col Dover to the sword. Ambition is one thing; ability to convert is another! Lummo’s mob did not realise that team Dover had the same idea. Cheryl, Pete & Col surged to a 5 shot lead before Sully called on his troops. The two teams were all square (8 each) after nine ends and 9 each after 11 before Col’s team commandeered the scoring over the closing period – 17 shots to 9 the final score. Helen Emblem, Ross Pharo, Col Cottee d Shirley Marchant, Gary Huggins & Ruby Stockings with Helen calling on all her experience, Ross using his natural ability and Col – well he is a

match-winner anytime – proving to be hard to beat. They won 12 of the 16 ends, scoring 18 shots in total. Shirley – always a trier – Gary – well, normally consistent – and Ruby giving it all – were just not good enough on the day. Final score was 18 – 5. Steve Kelly, Karen Greenhalge, and skip Gordon Scott played Dave Davis, John Cole, and skip Eric Satchell. In an enthralling encounter, a six shot first end should have set the intent for the game, but Gordon’s team could not maintain the rage! Eric got his side to push harder – and they did. Four shots at end 3 and five at end 5 had them in the lead by three shots. Steve dug deeper, Karen kept her cool, Gordon all but as they got within a cooee, just one behind after 11. As close as it got! Eric’s team

snared four shots at end 12, three at end 13, six at end 15. To have a game started by one team with six shots and finished by the opposition with the same is incredible. The latter onslaught gained Eric’s team a comfortable win 28 – 14. Sue Armstrong, Peter Bennison & Meryl O’Sullivan d Leo Balstrad, Gaye Cottee & Greg Brown. Rink 4 is no different to any of the others, yet it produced the closest match of the morning. There was plenty of ability on both sides but bowls can be a cruel game, and for Sue, Pete & Meryl they experienced it to the max! Having won 10 of the 16 ends, they felt they deserved the win but it was not to be. Leo, Gaye & Greg managed to score three shots at end 1 and five at ends 7 & 12 which was enough to scramble a win 16 – 14 after having the mat only six times.

Peter Sinclair skipped Alan Stratford & Doc Livingston, while Tod O’Dea skipped Frank Armstrong and Sue Brown. Keeping the mat is one aspect of the game. The more you have it the better your chance of getting a win. Peter usually plays well; Doc and Alan try hard and are mostly in a good zone. As a team they did well, never really threatened but kept honest. Tod and his crew battled on but were just not able to stir up enough steam to grab the game, going down 15 shots to 20.  Winners – Helen Emblem, Ross Pharo & Col Cottee with 25 points.  Runners up – Dave Davis, John Cole & Eric Satchell with 24 points.  Resters – Ross Pharo, Dave Davis & Steve Kelly.  Lucky numbers – Gordon Scott, Tod O’Dea & Leo Balstrad.

Dubbo’s Junior Cricketers grace the famous SCG By GEOFF MANN DUBBO and Narromine were well represented during the fourth Ashes Test when Cricket NSW Manager Matt Ellis accompanied coaches, parents and a group of young players for a rare opportunity to savour the atmosphere. The group was part of a contingent of over 400 Junior Blasters (5 – 7 year olds) and Master Blasters (7 – 10 year olds) from right across the State who participated in cricket-related activities at one of the world’s most famous grounds, in front of thousands of fans during an Ashes Test Match. One Dubbo player said “it was an unre-

al experience to walk in the footsteps of Glen McGrath, Elyse Perry, David Warner, Usman Khawaja and Allisa Healey”! Cricket NSW CEO Lee Germon, who was in Dubbo for the NSW age championships just before Christmas, said the impact of the Woolworths Lunch Break Experience on those who get the opportunity to participate can’t be underestimated. “There are many amazing things about attending a Test Match at the Sydney Cricket Ground but to witness the pure joy on the faces of the children who feature in the Woolworths Lunch Break Experience is something which always resonates with me. “At Cricket NSW we strive to inspire

people of all ages and abilities to play and love cricket through engaging programs such as the highly popular Woolworths Cricket Blast, and thanks to both Cricket Australia and Woolworths, we are able to make some dreams come true through this unique experience. “The NSW Cricket Pathway has a very proud and successful tradition of producing cricketers for Australian men’s and women’s national teams, and here’s hoping many of the junior cricketers we see during this Ashes Test Match at the SCG are walking out to the middle wearing a Baggy Blue or Baggy Green in the future.” The local teams had an anxious wait

as rain threatened to hinder proceedings but it was all worth it on Day 2, Jan 6, when representatives from Narromine District Junior Cricket joined Orange CYMS and six other groups on the hallowed turf. Dubbo Juniors rolled their arms over and hit imaginary (and some real) boundaries on Day 3. “It was such a fantastic moment when our fledgling young Emma Hughes and Chris Tremains walked onto the SCG. It was my absolute dream to do this when I was their age but I lived in Sydney so it was much easier to get down for Shield and Test matches but for kids from the bush and their parents – wow!”
