Pedal power East Geelong grandfather Peter Baker hopes to entice a record 30 cyclists on a weekly ride from Geelong Showgrounds to Drysdale today. “I’ve put the word out and I’ve promised everyone an Easter egg,” the Cycling Geelong member said yesterday. “The most riders we’ve ever had is 26, so we want to beat that.” The 75-year-old began cycling about a decade ago after quitting running due to a knee injury. The cyclists have hit the pedals together each Thursday since restarting the 50-kilometre return ride following Victoria’s snap lockdown last month. “Most of the people are retired – they’re all grey-haired warriors,” Peter said. “It’s a good social thing – there’s a lot of people in the group that live by themselves. “It’s good exercise too.” He thanked Cycling Geelong’s office bearers for their work to keep the club going for 21 years.

Ford vaccine hub opens By Luke Voogt Geelong’s mass COVID-19 vaccination hub at the old Ford factory will be unveiled today with the region’s immunisation program to ramp up dramatically next week. Barwon Health chief executive Frances Diver yesterday announced the Norlane site would begin operating next Tuesday with the capacity to vaccinate more than 10,000 people a week. “The … site has the potential to vaccinate more than 2000 people a day, depending on stock supply,” Ms Diver said. “Dependent on supply, we anticipate it could take around six

months to vaccinate everyone in our region. We will work with our local healthcare partners to establish other community vaccination hubs and pop-up sites.” Managed and operated by Barwon Health, the site will cater for high-risk priority groups in phase 1A of the vaccination program, which began last month, along with phase 1B. This includes healthcare staff, disability workers, and emergency service workers such as paramedics, police, and firefighters. “The site will open to public appointments at a later date, after vaccine supply is sufficient and final details are released to outline the booking process and prioritisation for various

groups,” Ms Diver said. “The Ford site has a significant place in the history of the Geelong region, so it is fitting that it will play a vital role as the vaccination hub that will help protect our region from COVID-19.” Barwon Health worked with site developers Pelligra and local contractors to refurbish the site over the past three weeks. The upgrades include improved disability access, carpeted floors, new bathroom facilities, resurfaced parking, privacy screens and consultation spaces. The announcement comes as COVID-19 vaccinations in the Barwon South West region

surpassed 13,000 yesterday. The region’s vaccination program is “on target” according to Barwon South West Public Health Unit director Eugene Athan. “This is a major logistic undertaking with a lot of factors and details to consider, but has overall been very successful so far,” Professor Athan said. “There have been very few adverse reactions reported. “In future, the broader community will be able to make appointments at the Ford site, but we thank everyone for being patient as we work through the high priority groups identified by the Commonwealth.”

Study finds dummy, allergy link By Luke Voogt A Geelong study linking sterilised pacifiers with an increased risk of food allergies in babies has gained international recognition. The Barwon Infant Study compared dummy use and cleaning methods among six-month-old infants and those with a confirmed food allergy at one-year-old in more than 700 participants. The study, published in the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, found infants whose dummies were sterilised with an antiseptic

solution were more likely to have a diagnosed food allergy. Centre of Food and Allergy Research investigator and Murdoch Children’s Research Institute PhD candidate Victoria Soriano said the findings warranted further investigation into how good bacteria in infants’ mouths and guts could help prevent food allergies. “These findings support the growing recognition of the importance of good bacteria, known as microbiome, in our mouth and gut on healthy growth and development,” Ms Soriano said.

The research found no increase in risk of food allergy at one year of age among dummy users when the pacifier was washed in tap water, boiling water, put in the parent’s own mouth or not washed at all before being given to infants at six months of age. “This research should not discourage the cleaning of dummies, as this is a vital step in keeping a child safe from the more immediate risk of infectious diseases,” Ms Soriano said. “There is also no evidence from this study that cleaning dummies by other methods is harmful.”

With food allergies often causing life-threatening anaphylaxis and affecting up to 10 per cent of infants, more research is required to understand how to prevent allergies, according to Ms Soriano. Pacifiers are a source of microbial exposure in early life, according to study’s authors. The Geelong-based research’s authors also cited another study finding lower total immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels in children 10 to 18 months if mothers reported sucking the infants’ pacifier. High IgE levels can be a sign that the body overreacts to allergens.

JobKeeper void threatens operators Geelong tourism operators face potential closure following the end of federal government’s JobKeeper wage subsidy on Sunday. Operators relying heavily on international tourism are most at risk, according to Echidna Walkabout director Roger Smith. “We have run three small tours since March 23, 2020,” Mr Smith said. “Normally we would have run many thousands of trips in that time period with tens of thousands of people. “The backbone to our business, the international cruise industry, will not return to Australia until at least 2022.” The business’s employees have dropped from 25 to six during the pandemic, with most still

working due to JobKeeper, Mr Smith said. “Forward bookings are slowly beginning to appear but they are mostly for 2022. “My co-director and management staff have never worked harder in our lives to pivot and we are succeeding to a certain extent. But it’s becoming patently obvious that unless we have support to at least retain our staff, we may not make it.” Mr Smith raised the concerns following yet another blow to domestic tourism, as Brisbane went into lockdown this week following a fresh COVID-19 outbreak. Corio MP and deputy opposition leader Richard Marles urged federal government to

provide assistance to the tourism sector. “Scott Morrison’s JobKeeper cuts risk leaving thousands in our community behind, especially … our local tourism sector,” he said. But federal Victorian senator Sarah Henderson pointed out that the $90 billion JobKeeper program had always been a temporary measure. Federal government had invested $1.2 billion in its aviation and tourism support package, the Geelong-based senator said. She said the government’s JobMaker hiring credit scheme would also assist tourism operators.

A 26-year-old Corio man will face court in August over the shooting death of Daniel Eagle, 43, as he lay in a car wreck on Saturday morning. In a filing hearing at Geelong Magistrates Court on Monday morning, magistrate Franz Holzer remanded Joshua Rozynski, 26, to appear for a committal mention on August 6. Mr Eagle was the front-seat passenger of a white Ford SUV that crashed with an Australia Post truck on the Princes Highway in Corio about 6am. A second vehicle that had been following the SUV pulled over at the crash scene, homicide detectives alleged. Homicide detectives alleged that Rozynski fatally shot Mr Eagle at the corner of Harpur Road and Princes Highway, Corio, about 6.05am. Two other men aged in their 20s were taken to hospital with non-lifethreatening injuries. Police later arrested Rozynski, along with a 25-year-old man. Both men were interviewed at Geelong Police station on Sunday night before Rozynski was charged with murder. “A 25-year-old Corio man who was assisting police has been released pending further inquiries,” a Victoria Police spokesperson said. Rozynski did not appear in court or make an application for bail. The court heard prosecutors would spend coming weeks sifting through a large amount of CCTV footage, phone records and forensic evidence. Luke Voogt

Lara firefighters have begun training to use a new ultra light tanker that arrived at their local brigade in February thanks to the “amazing” generosity of locals. “It was a brilliant effort from the Lara community,” fundraising committee secretary Gary Bascomb said. “We were overwhelmed by the generosity of locals.” Chemring, RAPP Australia, Lara District Community Bank and Bisinella Developments donated the bulk of the $148,000 for the tanker. Other local businesses, groups and individuals chipped in, together raising the total amount in just over four months. “You could see the money flowing in from piggy banks and coin jars from what was deposited into the bank account,” Mr Bascomb

said. “People gave what they could. We expected the fundraising to take up to two years, so to fundraise and have the vehicle delivered in 12 months, particularly during COVID-19, is an amazing feat.” Lara Fire Brigade raised the funds in response to a risk analysis that found a need for a manoeuvrable vehicle to fight blazes in areas not accessible to larger tankers. The brigade hosted an afternoon tea last Sunday to celebrate the tanker arriving and thank the Lara community for its support. Lara CFA firefighters are undergoing training to drive and use the light tanker, which Mr Bascomb expected to end in coming weeks.

Winchelsea ward councillor Heather Wellington has announced she will take at least two months leave for treatment for a recently-diagnosed heart condition. Cr Wellington thanked various health staff and said she would donate her councillor allowance to Geelong Community Foundation for a Surf Coast Shire cause.

Apprentice decrease The number of Geelong apprentices and trainees in training has fallen by 4.2 per cent in the 12 months to September, according to National Centre for Vocational Education Research data released on Wednesday. The youth unemployment rate increased from 9.9 per cent to 10.9 per cent in the year to December 2020, according ABS data.

Ambo blowout prompts warning By Luke Voogt A one-minute blowout in Geelong ambulance response times has prompted union officials and health authorities to warn against delaying treatment and check-ups. More than one in five ambulances failed to hit the 15-minute target for code one responses, requiring lights and sirens, in October-December 2020 while overall incidents increased by 265 compared to October-December 2019. Victorian Ambulance Union secretary Danny King attributed most of the increase to

people putting off visiting their GP or delaying treatment due to fear of COVID-19. “We’re seeing a lot of people entering the health system through ambulance departments rather than being more proactive with their health,” he said. “Our members are reporting that [in many cases] residents with chronic conditions are probably not getting the healthcare they would normally. “The key thing we need to do is get patients back in to see their GP, restart regular appointments and hopefully avoid the need to call an ambulance at 2am.”

Geelong’s population growth and ambulance ‘ramping’ had also contributed to the increase, Mr King said. Ramping occurs when an emergency department has limited space for patients, leaving paramedics to care for them and unable to respond to other incidents until space becomes available, Mr King explained. He called for more beds in other wards to allow the improved transfer and discharge of ED patients where practical. Barwon Health spokesperson Kate Bibby said the organisation had “introduced an additional staff operations meeting after-hours

to address patient flow through the hospital” in the early morning. “At times, our ED is under pressure, and this is often resolved by activating other strategies to move patients out of the ED into wards,” Ms Bibby said. “We are currently undergoing building works in the ED to provide better facilities for the community.” Barwon Health was aware of some people delaying their treatment in lockdown months, Ms Bibby said. She echoed Mr King’s advice while urging anyone with a life-threatening injury or illness to attend the ED.

Conor’s amazing 2020 Conor Brown escaped bushfires at Mallacoota just weeks before boarding a flight to Germany on January 18, 2020. The 17-year-old from East Geelong remembers orange skies, distant flames, thick smoke and “sirens all through the night” during his family’s camping trip, before boarding a navy ship for Melbourne on January 3. He “hadn’t heard too much about COVID-19” when he left for a Rotary-sponsored exchange trip to Germany. When the pandemic hit worldwide, Conor and his parents were “on the fence” about him returning immediately, but had confidence in Rotary and Germany’s health system, he said. Conor endured Germany’s first lockdown in April, and lived in three towns between Dortmund and Cologne. He even travelled to France, Belgium, Luxembourg and Austria as the pandemic abated during the European summer. But “things really started getting bad” 4 GEELONG INDEPENDENT Friday, 2 April, 2021

mid-October with 10,000 to 15,000 cases daily and strict lockdowns. The exchange program’s insurance enabled him to fly home on November 2 and he had a row to himself with about 30 people on the plane. His sister picked him up from Sydney airport and, as an unaccompanied minor, he was permitted to quarantine with her in Wagga. With the NSW-Victoria border closed, he had to walk across a bridge at Albury-Wodonga to reunite with his parents. “I felt overwhelmed and happy to see them,” he said. Recently, Conor joined the Geelong leg – featuring 13 vintage cars – of a nationwide relay celebrating 100 years of Rotary in Australia. “I had a pretty bloody good year compared to some people,” he said. “[Bayside Geelong Rotary Club] sponsored me and I will be forever grateful to them.” Luke Voogt

Jailed for grandmother’s death By Luke Voogt A Bell Post Hill father who killed his grandmother while high on magic mushrooms will spend at least four years and nine months in prison. Nicholas Field, 38, pleaded guilty to manslaughter on March 5, which Supreme Court judge Leslie Taylor took into account when sentencing him to seven years and six months’ prison this week. The sentence includes a non-parole period of four years and nine months and 269 days already served. The court earlier heard that Field kicked

Beryl Field, 84, to the stomach after pushing her over for no discernible reason on July 4, 2020. Mrs Field suffered internal bleeding and underwent surgery but died 16 days later from injuries sustained in the assault. Field consumed two magic mushroom drinks and dried magic mushrooms at a birthday celebration on the evening of July 4, Justice Taylor said. He later told others in the group they were “shifty” and “up to something” and spoke “uncharacteristically” of his childhood trauma, Justice Taylor said.

He did not respond to his partner’s calls and texts after he left the group and walked to his grandparents’ house. He arrived at 8.45pm, telling his grandfather he was in “a bad way” and asking to speak to him outside. “Instead, he invited you inside,” Justice Taylor said. The court heard after his grandfather left to get help, Field fled to a nearby house and smashed a car window, Justice Taylor said. A resident confronted Field and pursued him to Herne Hill Primary School. Police arrested Field after he swung a star picket at them and asked them to shoot him.

Field’s family, including his mother and grandfather, wrote letters of support for him, which Justice Taylor described as a “remarkable” display of forgiveness. During sentencing Justice Taylor acknowledged Field had suffered sexual abuse as a child and bullying as a teenager. She noted his “strong” intention to give up drugs and educate others on their dangers after his release. But she described his violence against “an elderly woman sitting in her kitchen” as “abhorrent” and said his actions would permanently scar his family. For help phone Lifeline on 13 11 14.

Tim is also a police officer, and urges locals to drive safely to prevent the equipment being needed in the first place. He remembered attending a triple fatality as a policeman and watching VICSES crews rescue two surviving backpackers from the car. “[The three deaths were] such a waste – a completely preventable loss,” he said.

MY GEELONG From performing as The Gems or Geelong’s “desperate housewives” to their weekly show on community radio, Sam Durney and Trish Redman-Collister are nigh-inseparable. They speak to Luke Voogt about 15 years of friendship and adventure. Tell us about you … Sam is a tradie working for Fix ’N’ Chips, has a partner Aaron and together they have five kids. Trish is a co-owner of Rockin’ Donuts and Coffee, has been married for 30 years to Jeff and has three kids and four grandkids. We host and run events at the Potato Shed, both paid and voluntary, and have hosted Drysdale’s free Family Fun Day for many years. We also teach hundreds of preppies to sing, dance and act at the Potato Shed for Children’s Week in October How did your friendship begin? We met 15 years ago. With all our children at school, it was time to do something exciting and be us. We bought guitars, learnt a few chords and did our first gig two weeks later, which was a bit scary. This was the beginning of our adventures together! Life is busy but we never say never … we’ve done The Winter Solstice nude swim in Tasmania and a five-kilometre obstacle course together. We were even on TV show Game of Games, hosted by Grant Denyer. What gigs do you perform onstage? As The Gems we sing songs we and our audience love. Our Desperate Housewives nights have been running for 11 years and often sell out. These nights are unrehearsed and full of spontaneous product reviews, improvisation, music, laughter and audience participation, with a group dance at the end of the night. We have themes like Bollywood, bogan and Rocky Horror, to name a few. Between us we play the guitar, mandolin, drums, bass, harmonica and even the kazoo – basically anything we can get our hands on – and we love singing and harmonising. We’re also involved in children’s band Funky Mummies and Theatre 3222 kids’ plays. We love children feeling free to have a go. You don’t have to do things perfectly, you just need to have fun.

Compassion, support deserved I was very saddened to read that Geelong charities and emergency relief providers are expecting a sharp influx of demand with JobKeeper and the Coronavirus Supplement set to end soon (“Pleas for help’ to soar,” Independent, March 26). However, this steep rise in the number of people requiring support is not surprising given that parenting payments, Youth Allowance, Austudy and the JobSeeker Allowance will effectively fall by $100 a fortnight beginning April 1. I’m extremely disappointed with both the Coalition government and federal Labor for allowing this injustice to occur. They could 6 GEELONG INDEPENDENT Friday, 2 April, 2021

It was also distressing to read that Geelong has over 10,000 residents relying on the JobSeeker Allowance.

Activists should apologise Peter Rees letter (Independtent, March 26) is correct but the climate cultists are unlikely to apologise. We had a scientifically illiterate PM from 1996 to 2007 who sought a political way out of the global warming/climate change challenges. A flagship office was established comprising the BOM and (later) CSIRO. At the time, my scientific knowledge was shaken. What I learned in school and later at Melbourne University was being questioned. I promised myself, should I live long enough to observe the dire predictions of the Church of Climatology eventuate, I would recant. To date it appears that various chief scientists, professors and schools of learning

It is insufficient to commission report after report, and get nothing done, when the problem is staring us right in the face. I am sure councilors and bureaucrats, who might be sued personally by affected members of the public, will soon wake up to the fact that they do have valid and enforceable duties. If you are in the position, then liability is the key.

This was called Renewables by the Green Environmentalist movement. It is of note that Australia is not short of water. It is simply available in the wrong place and time.

Councils are contracted to provide municipal services, and that is it. If the people operating these councils renege on their obligations, then the public has every

FRIDAY FEATURE

Obsession inspires debut thriller Waurn Ponds teacher Belinda Lyons-Lee is set to launch her debut novel Tussaud today, after a dozen drafts and 15 years of writing “seriously”. She speaks to Luke Voogt about journeying into the depths of history to find the “incredible” Marie Tussaud, and how volunteering as a teen influenced her writing.

ublishing a debut novel has been a “long journey” for Waurn Ponds teacher of 20 years Belinda Lyons-Lee. “As I grew up, I tinkered around with little poems and short stories,” she recounted, ahead of releasing her historical thriller Tussaud today. “But about 15 years ago I thought, ‘I’m going to take this seriously and give it a red hot go’.” During that time Lyons-Lee published short stories and articles on teaching, creativity and mental health in various metropolitan newspapers and magazines. “When I see things happening, an issue or read about someone’s experience, and I feel strongly enough about it, I often sit down to write to try and make sense of it.” She also wrote a middle grade time-travelling series that she came close to publishing as a young adult novel instead. “But this has been the breakthrough,” she said of her new novel Tussaud.

‘‘

invariably I just got tied up in her life

’’

- Belinda Lyons-Lee

While the worldwide business Madame Tussauds is universally-known, Lyons-Lee describes Marie Tussaud’s life story – which she discovered almost by accident – as a “hidden gem”. “I came into it sideways because I was toying with another idea for a middle grade novel, set in 19th Century London, about a 12-year-boy who was an apprentice to a wax sculptor,” she said. As she “jumped on the computer” to research for historical accuracy, “up came Madame Tussaud”. “And then invariably I just got tied up in her life,” she said. “I remember reading about her being in the French Revolution, and having displays of aristocracy and royalty in her windows. “She was an artist. She didn’t take them down … and that was the basis for her being branded a royalist and arrested. “When I began to pull out more details of her life, the middle grade novel was kicked to the kerb, effectively, and away we went with her.” After escaping the guillotine Tussaud made death masks of the revolution’s famous victims, including King Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette, according to her memoirs. “What an incredible woman,” Lyons-Lee said. “I imagine having such an extreme prolonged experience of fear – as she was [imprisoned] with her head shaved ready for execution – that makes a huge indentation on your inner life. “By reading about that experience, that’s what I wanted to explore – what would it do to a woman? “How do you recover from that? How do you make sense of that? And how do you go on in a time when people weren’t talking about [mental health]? “Not only did she live through that but she used her creativity as a way to survive. “She used what had happened to her to build a thriving business that’s still happening today, and in a male-dominated society when women just had no currency at all.” Delving deeper, Lyons-Lee discovered Tussaud’s partnership with “dubious” characters: a German stage magician and a British duke. “That drew me in even further,” she said. Lyons-Lee’s psychological thriller follows the story of the duke commissioning Tussaud to create a wax automaton in the likeness of a girl who mysteriously disappeared from the estate when he was a child. Tussaud must fight for survival in a world

dominated by male advantage and power, and in an estate full of locked doors and secrets, where no one is who they seem. The novel delves into the 19th Century obsession with spirituality and life beyond death, and blurs the line between history and fiction, with a “historically-accurate scaffolding”, according to Lyons-Lee. “I like stories with a little bit of bite,” she said. “I’m very interested in the psychology of crime and [human behaviour], so it’s only natural that I explore them in my work.” The novel reflects her own obsession with 19th Century history and Baker Street’s other famous, albeit fictional, resident Sherlock Holmes – the result of “being a copious reader” her entire life. “I’ve always read obsessively since I was a little girl,” she said. Trips to the library after school with mum Wendy were a highlight, she said. “Like a lot of bookish kids – that I see teaching at my own school – I turned to books as a companion, as way to try to understand [myself], to try to understand the world around [me], to escape, to be entertained – all those marvellous things that reading does for you.” At age 17 she began volunteering on Friday nights at ‘The Outpost’ in Little Malop Street mall, providing food and drinks to people struggling with homelessness and addiction. “I was exposed to some harsh brutalities at a young age,” she said. “I was really sensitive and had a strong sense that there were people hurting in my town. “I loved [volunteering there] – the people that I built relationships with – I really loved that.” Seeing first-hand the fear, isolation and

misunderstanding these people faced would later help her imagine Tussaud fighting for survival, she said. “I very quickly got attuned to who I felt comfortable being around and talking to, and seeing volatile situations happen in the mall. “I was exposed to a variety of people with all sorts of things going on in their lives. “And yeah, sometimes their behaviours are messy and ugly and unsafe and frightening. “But everyone comes with a backstory. There’s a humility that comes with realising I don’t know the backstory.” She remembered connecting with a “very well educated and interesting gentleman in his 60s or 70s” and inviting him to her family’s Christmas dinner one year. “There was also a young man who had a raging heroin addiction, who was just such a soft-hearted soul and yet was tightly in the grip of an addiction that literally saw him wasting away,” she remembered. “These experiences of pain and suffering, loneliness – or happiness – transcend social class and time, which is why I can bring my 19th Century characters to life.” After completing a degree in social work, she decided her “love of literature was something I could communicate to help” teenagers, and completed a teaching degree. Almost two decades later, in early 2018, Lyons-Lee submitted her first three chapters of Tussaud – in her fifth draft – for a nationwide initiative called Hard Copy. She was one of 30 writers initially selected, which were whittled down into a shortlist throughout the year. The initiative culminated in the shortlisted

authors meeting agents and publishers in a weekend featuring sometimes “brutal” critique, Lyons-Lee said. “Because I have been writing for so long, and have had so many rejections – countless rejections – I think I’ve become better able to process critique on my work,” she said. “Sometimes I’ve just thought am I just writing this for my mother or my husband. Why am I doing this? Am I any good?” But she had become better able to differentiate between “criticism of the product” and “criticism of the person”, she explained. “Which can be hard when the product has so much of you in it,” she admitted. She met representatives from publisher Transit Lounge during that weekend and in late 2018 received an email at 9pm saying that they wanted to print her book. “I was so excited, I jumped in the car and belted down to Indented Head, where mum and dad live,” she said. “I wanted to share it with them.” After a dozen drafts and several hundred hours of writing, mostly at Gusto Highton, Lyons-Lee is set to release Tussaud today. And the novel might just inspire some of her students to chase their dreams of becoming an author too. The year 9 English teacher describes herself as lucky to have many students at her current school, Geelong Lutheran College, who are eager to learn and be challenged. She hopes to teach them skills to “tell their own story” in memoirs, science fiction or whatever style interests them. Details: blyonslee.com 9 GEELONG INDEPENDENT Friday, 2 April, 2021

Business survives the COVID test Leading professional hair care retailer Price Attack Salons has targeted Melbourne and surrounding suburbs for expansion, setting a goal to open five stores this year. Tanya Kanaris, Price Attack Salons’ network development manager, has already identified key sites and is now on the hunt for an entrepreneur wanting to COVID-pivot and be their own boss, offering incentives and special deals. The hair care sector is valued at $500 million a year and continues to grow three per cent year on year. Price Attack Salons is ranked third largest in the hair care industry. As reported by commercialrealestate.com, interest in buying a business in 2020 had exceeded the number of businesses for sale, as buyers looked to secure future employment amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Ms Kanaris says Price Attack’s brand resilience came from being both a service provider and a retailer, with stores across Australia reporting strong and increased figures even during the toughest of lockdowns. “We have already identified a number of sites for a new store – so anyone with a love of hairdressing, customer service and the desire to be their own boss can apply and create their own destiny, quite possibly in their same suburb,” she says. “Our new focus on network expansion has already brought about a big increase in franchise applications in other states and now we are focused on Victoria. Maybe our new store owner is already in another franchise and wants to diversify. “Price Attack Salon owners don’t have to be hairdressers or come from the beauty industry. Our franchisees range from husband-and-wife teams to investors who have a passion for creating a great customer service experience

with professional products and expert advice: they come from all walks of life.” “Anyone made redundant can have confidence in the franchise sector; it continues to be resilient and, if managed and supported correctly, a strong success model. As for how much money can be made and what costs to expect, these are dependent on store size and location, but we’re determined to

meet the market with incentives.” Jodie Hackett bought her northern New South Wales business mid-COVID 2020 and has already seen such unprecedented figures; she plans on opening a second store. “The duality of the business is key to its success,” Ms Hackett says. “If that marriage of retail and service can hold up during a crisis, it says something.

lockdown, the retail side boomed with people buying DIY. When lockdown ended, people craved a treatment, not to mention a new ‘Zoom-look’. You cannot get a haircut on the internet.” To find out more about a Price Attack franchise, visit www.priceattack.com.au/ own-a-franchise

‘Four Musketeers’ forge new friendships A friendship group dubbed “The Four Musketeers” has provided fun and laughter for Lara resident Veronica Shine. Veronica has been attending genU day respite services for the past two years, after her daughter encouraged her to engage in more social activities. Veronica said she quickly formed new friendships with fellow respite participants Sylvia Oats, Margaret Upton, and Trish Lagerwey. “There’s four of us who we call ‘The Four Musketeers’, and we’re all going away for Easter. I met them when I started and we’ve stuck together ever since. I really enjoy their company,” she said. “My daughter said I should go along to mix with people, I’m 83 so it’s not always easy to meet new people, but from the day I joined I loved it.” Veronica enjoys social activities, painting, drawing and craft work through her respite services, and is always keen to catch up with her friends. “And the staff are very good, too; they’ll help you in any way they can. Nothing’s too much for them,” she said. genU offers overnight and centre-based day respite services for over 65s in Newtown and Ocean Grove. Both locations offer social activities, support to promote independent living and large outdoor gardens. Activities can be tailored to suit individual interests, all sites employ COVIDSafe practices, and additional security measures are in place for peace of mind. Veronica said people thinking about joining respite services should “give it a go”. “I think they’ll enjoy every minute of it … the people look after you very well – it’s good for your health and it’s good for your mind.”

Jessica Chastain plays Molly Bloom, a world-class skier who decides to run underground poker games for the rich and famous, eventually becoming the target of an FBI investigation. The dialogue is full of Sorkin’s trademark sparkle and the film bristles with energy – despite its length and overuse of narration, audiences will most likely find themselves drawn into Molly’s world.

SUNDAY

THE WOLF OF WALL LL STREET TEN/WIN, 8.30pm

In this car-crash vision of the American merican Dream gone horribly wrong, Leonardo eonardo DiCaprio (above) is fabulous as nal infamous money market criminal Jordan Belfort. Based on a truee story, it chronicles Belfort’s spectacularr rise and fall. It’s a long and dizzying ride (the runtime clocks in at almost three hours), but DiCaprio’s performance – his character is fuelled by money and drugs – and his electric chemistry with Aussie co-star Margot Robbie as his put-upon trophy wife make for an eyeopening trip. Jonah Hill is highlyy entertaining as Belfort’s manic business partner Donnie Azoff. Director Martin Scorsese proves es he’s still got it with this rather humorous tale of destruction.

SATURDAY

FINDING ALICE ABC TV, 8.20pm

Starring Keeley Hawes (Bodyguard) and Joanna Lumley (Absolutely Fabulous, right), and co-written by Simon Nye (Men Behaving Badly), Finding Alice is likely one of those series you either adore or a source of annoyance. Depending on which side of the fence you find yourself on, it’s a delightful black comedy, or a confused drama infused with sudden light moments.

Overcome with grief, and debt, Alice’s bereavement is heightened by the unfolding mystery.

Independence and freedom of choice - it’s ingenious secure, whilst maintaining their beautiful community spirit.” At the heart of each Ingenia Gardens village is the Community Room which hosts a number of events throughout the year. “It’s where you can relax and enjoy a catch-up with your fellow residents, watch a movie, enjoy lunch with your friends or participate in the Activate program,” Ms Jentz continues. Activate is an events-based program provided complimentary to all residents in Ingenia Gardens communities. The program consists of activities, themed meals, performances, bus trips and educational talks. “Many of the activities in the program have been put forward as suggestions by our residents which ensures we have a fun and varied schedule. “Over the past 12 months, we’ve adapted our Activate program to help our residents maintain social connection while keeping COVIDSafe.” If safety and wellbeing, low-maintenance living, freedom of independence in an affordable rental retirement community appeals to you, as well as living in a socially connected community where you know your neighbours and everyone looks out for each other, contact the caring and friendly Ingenia Gardens team.

Nicole Jentz, Portfolio Manager – Residential Communities, believes there’s never been a better time to downsize to a low-maintenance unit in a community of like-minded people who share a strong sense of belonging and connectivity. She says that Ingenia Gardens, leading owner-operator of rental retirement communities, offers a popular alternative for independent seniors by providing the opportunity to experience the benefits of community living without the many up-front costs or complex locked-in contracts common in traditional retirement living options. The Ingenia Gardens rental model provides seniors the freedom of independence and flexibility, with the added benefit of a secure lease, along with the lifestyle, convenience and safety aspects of belonging to a retirement community. “Having access to on-site managers and living in a gated community with level, covered walkways connecting them to communal facilities are just some of the many ways residents feel safe and secure,” Ms Jentz says. “Renting in retirement is a great way to enjoy the best of both worlds – maintain your independence whilst enjoying community living. “And, during these challenging and changing circumstances, the safety and wellbeing of our residents is of the utmost importance, which is why Ingenia has been proactive in taking steps to safeguard their health and provide support, so they feel

Take control of your hearing loss The team at Geelong Hearing Aid Services wishes everyone a Happy Easter. Geelong Hearing Aids Services has been providing hearing care for Geelong locals for 40 years now, and audiologist Ashlee Willis says they aim to provide quality caring service to ensure you can hear and listen to all of the wonderful sounds in life. “Hearing is such an important part of our lives, and hearing loss can impact you in many ways besides asking “what was that?” One of the more common impacts hearing loss can have on people is isolating you and causing feelings of loneliness. “When you’re not hearing conversations, eventually you stop listening. This leads to missing important information, not going out, not participating and missing out on the social events that you once loved. “But hearing loss doesn’t have to be isolating, and with our help you can take control of your hearing loss and improve your social wellbeing.”

Symptoms of hearing loss • You can hear, but not understand • You don’t always hear the phone ring

• You are turning the TV up louder than usual • Everyone seems to be mumbling • Pain or discharge in the ear • A blocked feeling in one or both ears.

What to do if you think you may have a hearing loss • Call Geelong Hearing Aid Services to book your hearing health check. • Speak with your GP if you are experiencing any pain, or discharge from your ears.

What if I do have a hearing loss? There are different options and treatments, depending on the type of hearing loss: • Hearing aids • Cochlear implants • Wax removal • Treatment

What now? Call us to organise your hearing check! Geelong Hearing Aid Services, 96 High Street, Belmont. Opens 9am-5pm Monday-Friday. Inquiries: 5243 1019 or www.qualtone.com.au

Making sure you stay mobile Mark Dillon, director of Scooters & Mobility Geelong, is always keen to get the message out to residents of the Geelong region that his business is literally a one-stop shop for all things mobility and home help aids. Now, as travel restrictions are easing, Mark highlights the store’s wide variety of airline-friendly Lithium-Ion powered scooters. “We have the world’s best – the Freerider Luggie – plus the range of Supa Scootas including the world’s lightest, the Microlite, along with its big brother, the Supalite,” Mark says. “These beauties make transfers from vehicles so much easier, and couldn’t be more perfect for airline travel. “And portable scooters, with brands such as Shoprider Little Cutie and Little Beauty, Invacare, Merits and Pride, are well represented and provide a great way to scoot around the shops.” At any one time, there are more than 20 scooters and powerchairs in stock, so there’s bound to be one that’s just right for purpose, whether for scooting around shopping or visiting friends, or wheeling along trails to take in a good dose of nature.” The store also carries a big range of Afikim mobility scooters – the only brand with a three-year warranty (12 months on battery and charger). Also in stock is an extensive range of tyres,

tubes, batteries, chargers and many spare parts and accessories for all makes and models of scooters and powerchairs – and at the region’s best prices. “Our team can help guide a customer’s choice and, if a purchase is ever in need of repairs, we have our technician Martin Coote to keep everything in good running order.” Scooters & Mobility is also home to some fabulous aids, such as walkers, sticks, frames and crutches, and mobility aids used in bedroom, bathroom and kitchen. And a lift and recline chair in the lounge room can improve mobility no end. Small items can make a big difference, too – for example, an Etac Contour Pen that’s perfect for arthritis sufferers or those with poor grip; or an adjustable pressure EquaGel cushion with washable cover that can make a car trip so much easier on the body. As Mark puts it: “We’re all about improving quality of life and wellbeing, helping people to remain mobile and get the most out of living every day.” No-obligation demonstrations and trials in store, or at any time (day or night) in customers’ own homes are available.

New partnership with a view to success Geelong Independent is proud to launch its new real estate partnership with realestateview.com.au, a trusted portal offering a suite of marketing options for real estate buyers and sellers. Established in 2001, realestateview.com. au is one of the country’s most visited real estate portals, with a monthly audience of circa 1.5 million. Chief executive officer Toby Balazs said the business has gone through a period of significant change over the past two years to set it up for future growth. “With a new CEO and executive team, the business has undertaken a successful capital raise, a migration to a completely new technology platform, partnerships with businesses like ACM and Apartment Developments, as well as a content deal with CoreLogic to power the hugely successful Price Estimator tool,” Mr Balazs said. “Response has come in the form of audience growth of more than 40 per cent year-on-year pre COVID-19. “With a 20-year history and strong industry support, realestateview.com.au is the trusted source for property and will now further grow its offering through this partnership with Star News Group.” Star News Group managing director Paul Thomas said the Independent is excited to have a new online real estate partner with realestateview.com.au, a platform with direct industry links and a sensible value offering for vendors. “A combined print and digital offering will normally increase the price vendors ultimately receive for their property,” Mr Thomas said. “The Independent and Realestateview.com.au will be the perfect marketing vehicles for vendors.”

Two-man show gets it right Keleman Motors is a well-respected name in Geelong and the Bellarine Peninsula and has been for more than 40 years. Shane Lockyer and Joe Atkinson took ownership of the region’s only independent Mazda specialist three years ago and Shane says it’s meticulous workmanship and customer focus that’s seen them continue building on a solid foundation. “We offer a strictly honest approach to workmanship of the highest quality,” Shane says. “We’re also known for our fair prices.”

The duo each has more than 15 years’ experience in the trade and make sure looking after their customers is a top priority as they carry out servicing and repairs to all makes and models. “There’s just the two of us in the workshop,” Joe says, “so customers can talk directly to the mechanic actually doing the work. And we always take time to explain in detail any issues their car may have. “No work is ever carried out without approval, but we’ll recommend what a vehicle

needs. Then the decision is left to the customer whether to go ahead.” Shane finishes by saying, “It’s just a two-man show but we do it right – price and quality-wise.” Keleman Motors, Factory 3, 13-15 Crown Street, South Geelong.

Cats face physical clash By Luke Voogt Ex-Hawthorn speedster Isaac Smith hopes to avoid former teammates’ efforts to “clean him up” while wearing blue and white for the first time in the traditional Easter Monday clash. Smith joined the Cats as an unrestricted free agent last year, after winning three premierships in 210 games with the Hawks. Smith said next Monday’s game would be physical after Hawthorn veteran Luke Breust indicated some Hawks were “pretty happy to clean him up”. “All the blokes I was looking to avoid have probably retired now,” Smith responded in Tuesday’s press conference. “James Sicily’s not playing either, he’s got sharp elbows. “I’m sure it will just be a good contest, they’re usually pretty close games, and if they want to worry about that stuff, hopefully we end up getting the ball.

“I’m not overly physical – have a look at me – but there’ll be a bit of lip out there I’m sure.” Friend and former teammate Liam Shiels joined the banter in a promotional video earlier this week. “I’ve been into him telling him I’m going to tag him and he’s telling me I won’t be able to keep up,” Sheils said.

Smith’s speed has certainly impressed Cats fans this season, and he kicked the match-winning goal to help Geelong escape with a one-point win over Brisbane last Friday. “You don’t need to be playing your best football now, we just need to be playing well enough to win, so hopefully we can keep winning and our better footy’s to come,” Smith said. The game included a divisive non-call in the final seconds and verbal confrontation between Cats coach Chris Scott, Lions players and their coach Chris Fagan at quarter-time. “I was fortunate enough to play for Clarko [Alastair Clarkson] for 10 years and he’s as good as I’ve seen at having his player’s backs, and Chris is every bit as good,” Smith said. “You want to see your coach being competitive and passionate, and if there are a few words exchanged between a player and coach it’s not too bad.”

Smith acknowledged players and coaches needed to be “smart” and “careful” with their behaviour as “role models”. But with 22 “extremely passionate” players “moments like that are going to happen”, he said. The fierce battle with the Lions was good practice for what looms as a physical clash with the Hawks after a 10-day break. “It was a pretty physical contest – it … played out … more like a final than [a regular season] game of footy,” Smith said. The Cats will be without explosive forward Gary Rohan, who accepted a two-match suspension for striking Brisbane midfielder Lachie Neale, and suspended star midfielder Patrick Dangerfield. Jeremy Cameron is unlikely to return from injury, making Geelong’s battle against Hawthorn more challenging. The Cats have the firepower to get the job done. Geelong by 12 points.

Jan Juc grommets dominate at 13th Jan Juc grommets have taken out five of six age divisions at the Victorian Junior Titles on Sunday in conditions organisers described as “epic”. The junior surfers enjoyed 2-3 foot waves, light onshore winds and fine weather at Thirteenth Beach, with nice running right-handers on offer all day. Willis Droomer won the under-16 boys division, posting 9.57 and 8.77 (out of 10) in a series of incredible turns. “The rights were good and I’m glad to get the

win,” Droomer said. Droomer had the rest of the field in a combination situation after his third ride – with all competitors needing two new scoring waves – and stayed in that position for the rest of the final. Rye’s Lucas Hickson finished 3.94 points short of Droomer in second, while Willem Watson and Jack Bassett, both from Barwon Heads, placed third and fourth respectively. Isla Huppatz took out the 16 girls division with smart surfing under pressure to post 5.83

and 7.43 for a heat total of 13.26. “The conditions were good all day,” Huppatz said. “The waves were really fun.” Sandy Point’s Eva Bassed nailed a 6.67 ride but was unable to find another wave to overtake Huppatz as the heat drew to a close, finishing with a total of 12.57. Ethan Huxtable, Mia Huppatz (Isla’s older sister) and Jarvis Barrow, all from Jan Juc, won the under 18 boys, under 18 girls and the under 14 boys respectively.

Coming into the long weekend there is some fantastic weather due, so the fishing options are almost endless – especially when there is plenty of good fishing on offer. If you’re chasing a Good Friday feed then getting stuck into the king George whiting is going to be a very good option as the bite has been red hot this past week. Clifton Springs right through to Queenscliff is still producing some great fishing, with big numbers of fish and at a good size. Fishing tide changes, or late in the afternoon, is going to be your best bet. Calamari are still in great numbers right around the peninsula. Ocean Grove through to Torquay is still fishing well for bluefin tuna, anywhere between 30-60 metres of water is holding plenty of fish. They are proving to be very flighty and are moving quick so it has been tricky to get the bites out of them. Casting stick baits into the bust-ups has been very effective. The fish are feeding on tiny pilchards so casting lures to replicate them is ideal. Barwon River, down towards Ocean Grove, has had some great bread-and-butter fishing on offer these past few weeks and is a great option if you’re keen to take the kids for a fish over the long weekend. King George whiting, trevally and salmon have all been chewing quite well through the system. Although you may not break any records in size there is plenty of action to remain entertained. The west coast estuaries have been fishing quite well over the past week with most systems producing quality fish – bream, perch and mulloway all finding their way onto anglers hooks. Casting soft plastics and hard body lures t has been very effective in getting the majority of fish as has surface fishing in the early mornings and late afternoons.

SPORT Grovedale wins senior section 1 flags LOCAL TENNIS Donna Schoenmaekers Grovedale Yellow has handed Waurn Ponds its first defeat of the season in the grand final of Geelong’s top mixed tennis division. Grovedale upset the injury-depleted minor premiers – who had not lost a single match for the season – 4-2 in Saturday’s section 1 grand final. Waurn Ponds was hit hard during the week with Billy Spicer going down with an ankle injury. Ben Meeke stepped up to fill the void. Grovedale started strong with Abbie Walker and Dave Meehan winning 6-2, followed by a long, tough 6-4 victory to Nicole Mullen and Jason Tomicic for Waurn Ponds. The men’s and ladies’ sets went each way again, with Grovedale taking the men’s 6-3. The ladies provided the closest set for the day with Nicole and Mikaela Mullen taking a tiebreaker over Bianca Duff and Walker 7-6. Level on sets, Grovedale went into the final two mixed doubles sets with a four-game lead, and needed to hold their nerve to keep it. The last two sets were tight, with Grovedale taking them 6-4 and 7-6 to clinch an upset 4-2 win with a seven-game lead. In the section 1 men’s grand final, the first

two sets went each way; 7-6 to Grovedale and 6-4 to Leopold. Grovedale snuck ahead in the middle sets, winning 6-4 and 7-5, taking a 3-1 lead with three games in hand. Ryan Lee and Braeden Lubcke sealed the victory with a 6-0 win, with Grovedale triumphing 4-2 and by seven games. Lee and Leopold’s Taj Cayzer continued their rivalry, facing off at number one for their teams, with Lee winning his three sets on the day. In the section 1 boys, minor premier Wandana Heights Blue came out hard against

Geelong Lawn Green taking a 5-1 victory. Lawn won the sides’ previous round 13 encounter by just one game, but the Wandana boys were fiercely competitive in the grand final. Jack Henry and Jarrod Zanardo started the team on its path to victory with good serving. Aaron Hanson continued the team’s good form with a strong 6-1 win, and the only blemish on the scorecard was Rupert Sever taking the fourth singles for Geelong Lawn against Austin Batty 6-3. The first doubles match was tight with Wandana winning 6-4 to secure the flag. Batty then atoned for his singles loss, taking a 6-0 dead rubber win with Hanson. In the section 1 girls, minor premier Geelong Lawn dominated the opening sets with Katie Alderton and Klara Nuc-Kraljak winning their singles match-ups 6-1 and 6-2 respectively. The middle sets were closer with Geelong Lawn’s Shylah Tucker winning 6-4 and Highton’s Matilda Puckett taking a tiebreak 6-5. Trailing 1-3 and by 10 games, Highton faced an uphill battle needing to win both doubles sets by a total of 10 games to force the draw. Highton won the first in a tiebreak but Alexandra Tidlacka and Tucker won the second 6-1 to claim Geelong Lawn’s second section 1 girls premiership in three years.

Bagg’s bag clinches flag By Luke Voogt North Geelong has scored an emphatic 78-run victory to win the GCA division one firsts premiership following a five-wicket haul by off spinner Tom Bagg. Bagg took 5/43 for the Magpies while spearhead Tom Mathieson took 4/20, backing up a stellar year in which he topped the division’s bowling averages. North Geelong chose to bat first last Saturday, with Sam Hall and Blake Troy combining for an opening stand of 86. Hall, North Geelong’s best batsman for the season, scored 89 while Casey Meehan hit a quick 39 not out off 32. Meehan earned a promotion thanks in part to his monstrous 212 (16 fours, 17 sixes) in the thirds earlier in the season. Together they helped the Magpies post a defendable 7/224. 30 GEELONG INDEPENDENT Friday, 2 April, 2021

After reaching 38 for the first wicket, East Belmont lost two batsmen for one run and struggled to recover. All-rounder Mitch Troy dismissed danger man Sean O’Neill, the division’s best batsman, for 32. Thomas Elliot was the only other major contributor with 40, before Mathieson bowled Chris Williams to dismiss the Lions for 146 and begin the celebrations. East Belmont (155) tasted defeat in the seconds too with South Barwon (3/156) comfortably winning the premiership, while North Geelong (4/104) won the thirds flag over South Barwon (103). Newtown-Chilwell (9/121) won a one-wicket thriller against minor premiers St Josephs (9/120) to win the fourth XI premiership. In the division two firsts grand final, Ben Muir’s 42 and Matthew Reid’s 59, and excellent

team bowling, helped Bell Post Hill (9/192) defeat Geelong City (163) by 29 runs. City (155) lost again in the seconds with Shane Fowles’ 66 not out guiding St Peters (5/156) to a five-wicket victory. In the thirds, Brodie Craig’s 122 not out and Matt Grgic’s 6/14 helped St Peters (2/220) smash Marshall (127) to win the thirds flag too. In a low-scoring division three firsts grand final Corio posted just 115 including 44 from Shane Bremner. But Brodie Coon’s 5/32 off 10 helped Corio bowl out St Albans Breakwater for just 92 for a 13-run victory and the premiership. In the seconds, Geelong West (6/219) beat Waurn Ponds-Deakin (159) by 60 runs with Daniel Reed Sharry and Joshua Lythgo taking 4/26 and 4/31 for West respectively. North Shore won the retire 100s north one day flag while Torquay won the south division.

Geelong reaches finals in a thriller Geelong has made the Victorian Premier Cricket finals with a thrilling eight-run win over Northcote, despite losing Gus Boyd and spearhead Brodie Couch to COVID-19 precautions. Boyd was isolating after a recent work trip to Brisbane, the site of Australia’s latest COVID-19 outbreak, while Couch travelled there to represent Victoria in a one-day game. Northcote sent the Cats in amid blustery conditions at Geelong Cricket Ground last Saturday. Geelong reached 37 before captain Eamonn Vines was caught behind for 27. The Cats then lost Josh McDonald (8) and Tom Jackson (1) in quick succession but Tyler Larkin fought for 23 off 70 before holing out to midwicket, getting the cats to 4/112. Younger brother Josh Larkin provided some support for remaining opener Hayden Butterworth, who was also caught at midwicket on 86 (5/170). Josh Larkin was next to go after a quick 36 off 33 getting the Cats to 6/188 off 47.5 overs. Lower order batsmen Tom O’Connell, Jack Wrigglesworth and Dom McGlinchey scored 22 off the last 13, getting Geelong to 8/210. Josh Garner dismissed Mark Phelan and Joshua Sundberg, and Northcote was reeling at 3/40 when Jack Lalor edged a leg side ball to keeper Josh McDonald. But opener Steven Taylor and Tearan Gleeson turned the tables with a 93-run fourth-wicket stand. Tom O’Connell got the breakthrough with a full toss that Gleeson lobbed to the mid-on fieldsman (5/133). Josh Larkin backed up his batting with tight off spin dismissing Jonty Rushton caught behind for 5 (6/169) and McGlinchey trapped Aaron Crispe LBW for a duck (7/170). Taylor reached triple figures, but shortly after tail-ender Blayde Baker ran himself out at the end of the over attempting to keep Taylor on strike (7/172). McGlinchey, Garner and Larkin restricted Northcote to 30 off the next seven leaving the Dragons needing 10 off Larkin in the final over. Taylor was run out attempting a second run on 120 and Michael Edwards hit the next ball straight to Larkin, who ran out Topp after he charged down the pitch. With Northcote still needing nine off the last two Larkin clean bowled Roby Lane for the win. The win sets up an exciting clash in Geelong’s (5th) qualifying final against St Kilda (4th) at Harry Trott Oval tomorrow, with Boyd and Couch set to return. Geelong leads the league in runs for while St Kilda has the least runs against. Luke Voogt
