Sweet sound will be heard

Sweethearts band members Aurora Curtis, Skye Nagtegaal and Isabel Ella.

Geelong’s soul sisters the Sweethearts are determined to bring their signature festival to life despite organisers again postponing the event amid Victoria’s worsening COVID-19 outbreak. “It’s their festival and they’re so proud of what they’ve put together,” said Michael Fitzgerald, musical director of the Geelong school-based band. “They’re excited to go ahead when they can safely do it.” Organisers had already postponed Sweetfest from May 30 to next Sunday, August 29. But with 57 new Victorian cases on Wednesday and 930 people already registered to attend the free outdoor event, organisers have postponed again. “It’s just not the right thing to do at this stage given the number of cases in Melbourne,” Mr Fitzgerald said. The event features eight Melbourne artists, along with sound engineers and other industry professionals from the city, he added. Organisers now hope to hold Sweetfest next March and expect to announce the date in coming days. “It will come to life,” Mr Fitzgerald said. Luke Voogt

Priced out of the market decent block of land, unless you’re looking in Norlane and Corio, there’s nowhere in Geelong. “I’ve had a couple of clients who’ve had to alter what they’re looking for, because they can’t afford what they initially could.” Higher property values in Melbourne meant those moving down after selling had much higher budgets than locals, driving price increases, Ms Whittaker said. But even some Melburnians had begun looking elsewhere, she said. “I had one client from Melbourne who originally wanted to buy in Geelong. Now they’re looking in Ballarat.”

Ms Whittaker said the trend was making Geelong locals hesitant to sell, creating a supply shortage that in turn was driving prices higher. “They’re just worried that – even though they’ll get a good price – they won’t be able to find something else.” This week, Oliver Hume released research, commissioned by Villawood Properties, showing median prices for 350 square metre blocks had increased by $33,100 (13.3 per cent) from $247,900 to $281,000 in the year to June 2021. Prices for 400sqm blocks increased by eight per cent while 448sqm blocks were up 11.3 per cent from $292,000 to $325,000.

REIV figures show greater Geelong house prices increased 18.8 per cent for the year to June to a median $695,000. Oliver Hume head of research George Bougias said working-from-arrangements resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic had driven the influx of Melburnians. “People are rediscovering the regions, especially for the lifestyle they offer,” Mr Bougias said. “Geelong also offers great value for money. Many people in Melbourne are finding they have an appreciable asset that goes a long way in the regions.” 12509726-SN34-21

Geelong house and land prices are skyrocketing with an influx of Melburnians a boon for investors but forcing homebuyers to look elsewhere. The influx is causing prices to increase faster than local buyers, especially aspiring first-home owners, can keep up with, according to Geelong-based buyers advocate Vicky Whittaker. “What you could get three months ago, you can no longer get – $600,000 used to buy you something decent in some of the good areas of Geelong,” she said. “If you’ve got $550,000 to $600,000, and you want to build a house on a

Local scientists in vaccine study By Luke Voogt Geelong scientists have played an important role in developing heat-tolerant COVID-19 vaccines to help the Third World escape the devastating consequences of the pandemic. Most COVID-19 vaccines need refrigeration to remain effective, like AstraZeneca, which must be kept between two and eight degrees Celsius, and Pfizer, which requires specialised storage at -70°C. But CSIRO scientists at the Australian Centre

for Disease Preparedness recently tested the efficacy of new vaccine formulations developed by the Indian Institute of Science and biotech start-up Mynvax. The Mynvax vaccine formulations triggered a strong immune response in mice, protected hamsters from COVID-19, and remained stable at 37°C for up to a month and at 100°C for up to 90 minutes, according to project leader and co-author Doctor SS Vasan. Their work, published in the peer-reviewed ACS Infectious Diseases journal last month, indicates the

vaccine is effective against all current variants of the virus causing COVID-19. “Our data shows that all formulations of Mynvax tested result in antibodies capable of consistent and effective neutralisation of the alpha, beta, gamma and delta SARS-CoV-2 variants,” Dr Vasan said. The evaluation of different Mynvax formulations will support the selection of the most suitable candidate for planned human clinical trials in India later this year. CSIRO’s health and biosecurity director Rob

Grenfell said the pandemic had demonstrated a need for global scientific collaboration to address the urgent demand for cost-effective vaccines. Vaccines that can withstand warmer temperatures were vital for countries with hot climates lacking reliable cold storage, Dr Grenfell said. Along with countries near the equator, like India, this could include regional communities in Indo-Pacific region and even the Australia’s outback, he said.

never a matter of ‘are we going to close?’ It was, ‘how are we going to stay open?’ OneCare also began running a community food bank to fill the void left by the closure of other services for those in need. The changes allowed OneCare to provide up to 500 meals a week and 1.5 tonnes of groceries to families in need. “The [demand] never dropped, and it’s only increased since JobKeeper ended,” Claire said. As a result, Claire is now in the running to win $10,000 for the organisation’s food relief efforts after being nominated for a nationwide ‘local heroes’ competition. “It’s been lovely, but weird and awkward,

because it’s about me,” she said. “But the organisation’s not about me, it’s about the wonderful team we have here – especially eight regulars that are here hail, rain or shine. They are just sensational people. It wouldn’t happen without the amazing volunteers we have here.” The other local nominees are Feed Me Bellarine’s Anthony Woodbury, Fight Cancer Foundation’s Barb Speldewinde, Peace of Mind Foundation’s Bronwyn Haskell, Geelong Youth Engagement’s Andy Brittain and Eat Up’s Jennifer Chiu.

Claire Faulmann dove into the deep end when she became chief executive of Geelong West charity OneCare as COVID-19 hit last year. “I started on March 10 and the World Health Organisation declared a global pandemic on March 11,” she said. “Turns out, I thrive in a crisis.” As food charities across Geelong shut their doors, OneCare instead ramped up its operations, modifying its community meals into a takeaway service. “The team just sort of looked at each other and said, ‘we’ll put it in takeaway containers’,” Claire remembered. “They were absolutely committed – it was

Geelong and Surf Coast mothers have missed out on $20.9 million in retirement savings while on parental leave in the past decade, according to a national industry group. Industry Super Australia analysis shows up to 19,000 mothers in the Corio and Corangamite electorates received Commonwealth parental leave payments in the past 10 years. In 2019-20, 1150 mums in the Corio electorate missed out on $1.5 million in superannuation payments, while 1295 in Corangamite missed out on $1.6 million, according to the organisation. Over the past decade, 9290 female recipients of parental leave payments in the seat of Corio lost $10.4 million in superannuation, Industry Super Australia said. Another 9340 in the Corangamite electorate together missed out on $10.5 million, the group said. “Geelong women are being made to sacrifice their retirement savings to have children,” Industry Super Australia advocacy director Georgia Brumby said. “It’s hard enough trying to juggle work and raising a family – it’s not fair that thousands of women are also being slugged with this hidden pregnancy tax on their super as well.” Industry Super Australia is calling for federal government to include a “modest” superannuation payment in its 18-week paid parental leave scheme. It said Geelong women have less super than men, with the gap widening “dramatically” in their 30s when many women take time out of the workforce to raise children. The lack of superannuation in the parental leave scheme could cost a mother-of-two $14,000 from their retirement nest egg, it said. Luke Voogt

Under-40s join vaccination effort By Luke Voogt Torquay’s Hayley Tucker was among thousands of locals rolling up their sleeves this week as mass COVID-19 vaccination centres opened up to those under 40. The HR manager and mother-of-two got the AstraZeneca jab at the Norlane hub on Wednesday to protect her children and help Australia exit lockdown. “I think it’s important we all do this, otherwise we’ll never get out of these lockdowns,” the 38-year-old said. “The Delta strain is so bad, and more children and young people are getting it.” Ms Tucker had the injection at 11am and had

yet to feel any side effects late that afternoon. Some people develop a minor fever or other mild side effects after receiving the vaccine. But Ms Tucker described that as a small price to pay for protection from the “horrific symptoms and long-lasting effects” of COVID-19. She said she was “happy” to take the extremely small risk of blood clots associated with the AstraZeneca vaccine – two to three in 100,000 for her age group. The possible complication was treatable if she remained vigilant, she added. The chances of developing blood clots from the contraceptive pill or COVID-19 itself are much higher than from the AstraZeneca vaccine. Ms Tucker has received one of about 175,000

vaccine doses administered in the Barwon South West region since the rollout began. According to the latest weekly federal health data, 56.5 per cent of people aged 15 and over

in Geelong alone had received their first dose as of last Sunday. More than a third had received their second dose, making Geelong the most fully-vaccinated region in Australia. These figures have likely increased with AstraZeneca bookings for people aged 18 to 39 remaining “strong” since eligibility opened last week, according to Barwon South West Public Health Unit director Eugene Athan. “We encourage any young people to consider the AstraZeneca vaccine and to discuss it with their GP if they are unsure about it,” Professor Athan said.

Green awardee’s hope for humanity In 375 hours of radio and podcasts, Mik Aidt has realised the world cannot afford to wait for a climate change saviour. “There probably won’t be a climate Churchill,” the joint winner of Geelong council’s Community Green Achiever Climate Action Award said. “It’s not somebody else’s problem, it’s everybody’s problem. It starts when people come together and realise they are stronger than they thought they were.” The East Geelong environmentalist, who migrated from Denmark in 2013, admitted he was initially reluctant to accept the award. “What I have been doing, so many others have as well,” he said.

“I don’t want to be put on the pedestal.” But he decided not doing so would “defeat the purpose” of the radio show he and three other locals put together each week, The Sustainable Hour, which highlights “positive green solutions” in Geelong. “The city is buzzing with community groups,” he said. “It’s very rewarding to hear about all these great things that are happening.” Among these was a project by the awards’ other joint climate action winner, Geelong Sustainability, to help people renovate a room in their home to be more energy-efficient, Mr Aidt said.

He said the world’s response to COVID-19 had filled him with hope for his three children and the future. “When things get really dark all the best things in humanity come out,” he said. “COVID has shown us that we’re better than we thought. We need to create a world where there is positivity and hope, and life is worth living.” The awards’ other winners were Lids 4 Kids, Friends of the Hooded Plover Bellarine founder Andrea Dennett and Friends of Waurn Ponds Creek.

Calls for better transport, freight and recycling networks to keep up with Geelong’s rapid growth have shaped a new 30-year plan for the state, according to Infrastructure Victoria. The advisory body presented Victoria’s Infrastructure Strategy 2021–2051 to parliament yesterday. “Drawing on new evidence, research and listening to the people who live and work here, we have finalised actions the Victorian Government should take to help meet the Barwon region’s infrastructure needs over the next 30 years,” Infrastructure Victoria CEO Michel Masson said. “As Geelong continues to grow and transform rapidly, its freight role is unique to Victoria with the state’s second largest port, Avalon Airport and major road and rail corridors to Melbourne, Ballarat and other regional towns. “Enhancing these freight corridors will create cheaper, safer and faster connections such as linking producers to the future Bay West port.” The plan calls for Geelong’s cycling network, suburban train and bus lines and road technology systems to ensure safer, smoother travel. “We have also identified opportunities to strengthen Barwon’s recycling and resource recovery sectors, which would create new jobs and services and reduced transport costs of recycled materials,” Mr Masson said. The report flags protection for the Great Ocean Road and other coastal areas from the effects of rising sea levels caused by climate change. “We need to change the way we manage coastal assets like the Great Ocean Road, focusing on targeted protection and long-term investment for these fragile coastlines and the communities and economies they support,” Mr Masson said.

Accused faces court over St Albans Park aged care rape A man accused of raping a 90-year-old woman at a St Albans Park aged care centre on Sunday has appeared in court. Shane Huici, 23, of St Albans Park, appeared at Melbourne Magistrates’ Court on Monday night charged with rape, aggravated burglary, recklessly causing serious injury, common law assault and theft. Police allege the elderly woman woke to find Huici sexually assaulting her in her home at Tannoch Brae Aged Care on Aldershot Road about 4.45am. 4 GEELONG INDEPENDENT Friday, 20 August, 2021

Detective Acting Inspector Mark Burnett said the woman activated a distress alarm, which alerted staff. A staff member confronted Huici, who fled the scene, Detective Inspector Burnett alleged. The woman was taken to hospital after suffering injuries in the incident. Police searched the area but were initially unable to find the alleged offender. Sexual Crimes Squad detectives arrested Huici about 9am on Monday following a public appeal for information on the incident.

They took him to Victoria Police Centre in Melbourne. “I understand how much concern an incident like this causes in the community, so being able to make an arrest in just over 24 hours is reassuring,” Detective Inspector Burnett said. “Locating the person responsible has been a significant priority for Sexual Crime Squad investigators ever since the matter was reported to police. Our thoughts are with the victim and her family at this time and they will be offered a range of support services. I’d also

like to thank the community and the media for all their support in sharing the information we released yesterday.” Huici made no application for bail and was remanded in custody for a committal mention hearing on November 5. In a statement on Sunday Tannoch Brae Aged Care said management and staff were assisting police investigating how the “security breach” occurred at the facility. Luke Voogt

Battle to relieve crippling pain After suffering the crippling pain of endometriosis for more than a decade, Kristy Michalowsky and her husband Rob have launched a fundraiser for surgery they believe could give her “some quality of life back”. She speaks to Luke Voogt about her journey.

ndometriosis has no cure, but Corio mum Kristy Michalowsky hopes a hysterectomy can lessen the pain she has lived with for more than a decade. “Right now, I can barely get off the couch – it’s horrific,” the 36-year-old said. “It ranges from a burning ache to sharp stabbing pains to a hot poker. It can be like Freddy Krueger is right in your womb. “A hysterectomy is not a cure – there is no cure for endometriosis.” But Kristy believes surgery to remove her uterus could alleviate some of the excruciating pain, particularly that relating to her menstrual cycle. “It will give me some quality of life back,” she said. Endometriosis occurs when tissue similar to that lining the inside of the uterus grows outside of it as well. With no way to exit the body, the tissue becomes trapped and can cause debilitating pain.

You feel so vulnerable and not heard

She has also tried herbal medicine, acupuncture, massage, physiotheraphy, meditation and various diets in a bid to relieve the pain. Unhappy with previous treatment and surgeries in the public system, she and husband Rob dug into their superannuation to have another surgery at a private hospital to remove some of the endometriosis in 2019. Unfortunately, it did little to alleviate the pain. About a year ago, a gynaecologist recommended a hysterectomy and, after months on the elective surgery waiting list, Kristy visited University Hospital Geelong in June for a consultation. But specialists recommended against the surgery for at least six months. “I didn’t even make it to the car before I broke down in tears,” Kristy said. “You feel so vulnerable and not heard.” An outpatient report recommended Kristy see a local women’s health physio service, undergo a colonoscopy for a minor bowel condition and have a review in six months’ time.

The report says a hysterectomy could make her pain “worse, better or unchanged”. After having a son and two stepchildren, she and her handyman husband have no desire to have more kids. “We have two adult children who are out in the world and a 16-year-old at home, so we have absolutely let that ship sail,” she said. “It’s my body. Ultimately, I should decide. But we have nothing left to do this [surgery] privately.” For Rob, nothing hurts more than seeing Kristy in agony. “To see my wife crying and saying she wishes it would just end is the worst feeling I have ever experienced,” he said. “I have worked hard all of my life and still do, and knowing that the only thing that stands between my wife and a normal life is the fact that I can’t make enough money to help her, is killing me.” So he launched a GoFundMe campaign to raise money for the surgery. “I am doing something I have always been too foolishly proud to do before and asking you all for help,” he said.

Kristy hopes to raise awareness, along with finding some relief from her pain. “I just want to live, be able to work and thrive with my husband,” she said. Barwon Health gynaecology director Tony Ma said providing comment on an individual patient would be inappropriate. “Pelvic pain is a condition that affects at least one in nine women,” he said. “For some women, it can be debilitating, affecting all aspects of their lives.” Dr Ma said treatment for the condition involved assessment by a multi-disciplinary team. “Surgery is one treatment option, but it may not be appropriate for all women and carries both risks and benefits. “It is recommended that women seek an initial assessment by a gynaecologist to determine a treatment plan and then undergo regular reviews to monitor the effectiveness of treatment and referral for surgery if necessary. “The decision to operate should be a joint decision by the operating surgeon and patient.” To donate: gofundme.com/f/endometriosissurgery-for-kristy

Kristy was diagnosed at 16 with polycystic ovarian syndrome, a hormonal disorder causing enlarged ovaries and small cysts. She experienced pain on and off, until she gave birth to son Kobie in 2005, and the pain escalated. But she had no idea what was causing it until she met her “wonderful doctor” Bryan Johnston at Northern Bay Health, Corio, in 2013. “He put me on the path to finding out what I had,” she said. Prior to moving to Geelong, she had become frustrated with specialists in the Victorian and NSW public health systems, who she felt had not taken her seriously. “That’s happened a lot over the years,” she said. “Dr Johnston was the first one that really listened and helped.” He wrote a referral that led to exploratory surgery in 2015, in which surgeons diagnosed Kristy with endometriosis and removed some of the tissue causing her pain. She has since been diagnosed with stage three of the condition, with stage four being the most severe. “The pain is subjective,” she explained. “Someone in stage one with minimal lesions could be in absolute agony. Someone in stage four, riddled with lesions and cysts, could be living quite comfortably.” She has undergone several surgeries and tried all manner of hormonal therapies and pain medications.

Sole-saving project for Geelong By Luke Voogt

There is nothing “lazy” about a sole-saving New Zealand project sneaking its way into Australia through Geelong. Geelong council has backed the Lazy Sneakers initiative to rehome shoes with aspiring young local athletes who need them to get active and participate in the sports they love. Since 2018, Lazy Sneakers has distributed more than 4000 pairs of runners to children and young people all over New Zealand. Geelong council partnered with the initiative recently to bring its sneaker

bank to its first location outside of New Zealand. Circular economy portfolio chair Belinda Moloney said council was “passionate” about “removing the barriers to participating in active living” and “creating more equitable access to services and facilities”. “Not only will this initiative help community members participate in sport, it also reduces waste by giving preloved items a new purpose and diverting them from landfill,” Cr Moloney said. Geelong locals can donate second-hand or new sports shoes at Leisuretime Sports Precinct in Norlane. Council plans to work with local schools,

sporting clubs and community groups to identify children and young people who could benefit from a pair of donated shoes. Shoes in suitable condition will go to those in need, while other donations will go towards Australian Sporting Goods Association’s Save Our Soles initiative to recycle sneakers. The Running Company Geelong has donated about 40 pairs of runners in near-new condition to the Lazy Sneakers initiative so far. For more information phone the Leisuretime Sports Precinct on 03 5272 4990 or email leisuretime@geelongcity.vic.gov.au.

Organisers have cancelled White Night Geelong for 2021 amid Victoria’s worsening COVID-19 outbreak. White Night Geelong had been scheduled to take place on October 2, but organisers yesterday announced they would postpone the event until 2022. “We know this is very disappointing for ... Geelong but we’re looking forward to bringing back these great cultural events in 2022,” Visit Victoria chief executive Brendan McClements said. “The decision provides certainty to artists, suppliers and the community – and reinforces Visit Victoria’s commitment to these premier public events. “Visit Victoria will continue to work closely with its regional partners to deliver the events in 2022, with new dates to be announced in due course.” White Night Geelong attracted 70,000 attendees and delivered an economic impact of $6.1 million to the region in 2018, according to Geelong council. The free public event features colourful projections and light installations across central Geelong streets, laneways, parks and the waterfront. White Night Bendigo has also been cancelled for 2021. Victoria recorded 57 new COVID-19 cases on Wednesday, bringing the state’s active cases to 296.

Mumpreneur’s the word “The word mumpreneur says it all” for businesswoman, doctor and mother-of-two Saba Qutub. “I love being both a mum and an entrepreneur, and I couldn’t see my life without either one of them,” she said this week after making the AusMumpreneur Awards final. “My children and business make me who I am, and I wholeheartedly believe that it’s important for mums to know that it’s okay to want both.” Dr Qutub, the older sister of Angel Next Door charity founder Aamir Qutub, is up for the Rising Star and Multicultural Business Excellence categories. She and her husband migrated from India several years ago before opening their practice, Armstrong Health, in 2017. Dr Qutub juggled adapting her practice to the challenges of COVID-19 with pivoting her other business, DRSQ Skincare, online and

home-schooling her children – from work. “I wasn’t willing to give up either of these responsibilities, so between patients, I would hop on Zoom with my daughters and help them with their school work,” she said. Her daughters, aged eight and 11, stayed at home during lockdowns with her in-laws, who lived with them at the time. “I didn’t get the luxury of being at home because, being a doctor, I had to be at the practice,” she said. Dr Qutub hopes her journey can inspire other local mums. “If you are passionate about it, then you should chase it,” she said. “Do your financial homework to have a realistic idea of how much it will cost, and don’t forget to create a network. Don’t be afraid to ask questions.” Details: www.ausmumpreneur.com Luke Voogt

Two Norlane blazes in half a day By Luke Voogt A Norlane house fire – one of two separate blazes in the suburb in less than 11 hours – has left a man with burns to his upper body. Firefighters rushed to the blaze on Donnelly Avenue and Iona Street at 12.36am on Tuesday. “Arriving within five minutes, crews found the front of the 10x10 metre house on fire and quickly worked to make the scene safe,” a Fire Rescue Victoria (FRV) spokesperson said. “The scene was brought under control at 12.55am. One person was placed into the care of Ambulance Victoria paramedics.” Ambulance Victoria said paramedics took the man in his 30s to University Geelong Hospital in

a stable condition with burns to his upper body. A Barwon Health spokesperson said the man was recovering in hospital on Tuesday afternoon. Fire crews attended another fire in Norlane later that morning on Bellbird and Robin avenues. “Arriving at 11.01am, in less than four minutes, crews identified the single-storey house fully-involved and began searching the residence for possible persons inside,” the FRV spokesperson said. “The subsequent search found no occupants inside.” Firefighters brought the blaze under control at 11.19am. Victoria Police and CFA crews assisted FRV firefighters at the scene. The fires remain under investigation. They are not linked, according to FRV.

Archibald Prize Geelong-bound Australia’s best-known art prize is heading to Geelong this November for its century anniversary tour. Geelong Gallery recently announced it would be the only Victorian venue to host Archie 100: A Century of the Archibald Prize. The often controversial competition began in 1921 following a bequest by Jules Francois Archibald to the Art Gallery of New South Wales. Christened John Feltham, Archibald was born in Geelong West in 1856 and lived in the region, beginning his journalism career in Warrnambool when he was 15-years-old. The founding editor The Bulletin magazine, he was a passionate supporter of a distinctly Australian style of nationalism, journalism and the arts. The Art Gallery of New South Wales now awards $100,000 each year to the winning artist of the prize. Archie 100 celebrates the centenary of Australia’s oldest portrait award with paintings from every decade of its history. The exhibition follows years of research into more than 6,000 works appearing in the Archibald Prize and a public appeal to help find lost portraits. The exhibition runs at Geelong Gallery from November 6 to February 20, 2022. Details: geelonggallery.org.au

Lehmo in punchlines at Norlane By Luke Voogt Stand-up veteran and TV personality Lehmo will cruise down the highway to headline Punchlines on Pako – now at Norlane – next Friday. The self-described “full-time funny person” is well-qualified to mentor the next batch of Geelong jokesters in the gig showcasing the region’s emerging comedic talent. “To be honest though, I get as much out of it as they do,” Lehmo told the Independent. “I always love meeting new comics because they’re so full of beans and they’ve always got fresh, different ideas. “They’ll have a lot of questions and be excited to meet you. “Sometimes young comedians will look for a magical tip that will propel them onto radio or TV. I’ve been around for a while so I’ve got a few. “But mostly, at the end of the day, it’s just like any job – it’s about work. They’re often disappointed when I tell them that. “In a sense you’re working all the time – you’re always thinking about jokes and other bits.” Anthony ‘Lehmo’ Lehmann has been a regular on the festival scene since the mid-’90s, and has performed for Australian troops in the world’s most dangerous war zones several times. His long list of TV credits includes co-hosting Before the Game, and appearing on

Lehmo entertains St Joseph’s College parents in February. (Supplied)

current programs like Have You Been Paying Attention? and Hughesy We Have A Problem. Lehmo has worked in radio since 2003, and can be heard on ABC Radio’s Grandstand on weekends and across the Triple M network throughout the week. He regularly performed in comedy clubs and festivals across the globe until COVID-19 brought his travels and live shows to a grinding halt for months at a time. But he still managed a few gigs in Geelong

this year, joining Dave O’Neil for show at St Joseph’s College, brought ahead at the last minute to prevent it being cancelled by Victoria’s lockdown in February. He also managed to appear at Kardinia Park in May. With Melbourne currently in lockdown he is thrilled to “get out for a laugh” in Geelong again next weekend. “I can’t wait – it’s been a hell of a year for everyone, comedians included,” he said.

“We’ve had so many cancellations, especially June, July and August.” Once the world returns to normal, he hopes to “do as many gigs as I can, in as many locations as I can” and go on holiday with his wife and son. But planning anything further for his future is a “fraught business at the minute”, Lehmo reckons. “I’ve always got 100 ideas floating around but I don’t want to share any of them,” he said. “You never get ahead of yourself in this business or you set yourself up for a fail. You tend to only to talk about new projects once they’re signed, sealed and delivered.” Lehmo joins local comedians Luke Massey, Sam Gebreselassie, Ash Greblo, 2021 National Raw Comedy Winner Prue Blake, Urvi Majumdar, Aurelia St Clair, Tim Young and MC Tosh Walker for Punchlines on Pako. The group behind the gig, Locally Grown Funnies, had initially planned to hold it at Geelong West Town Hall on July 31. They postponed Punchlines on Pako due to recent lockdowns and, with Geelong West Town Hall booked out on August 27, have moved the gig to Centenary Hall, Norlane. Fellow Australian comedy veteran, Denise Scott, will headline another line up of emerging local comedians in a second Locally Grown Funnies gig on August 28 at Westend, central Geelong.

Wood sculptor reveals ‘beauty from the inside’ A surfboard with 40 offcuts and wooden pieces that almost seem to move is the manifestation of Darren Matthews’ long-time love of working with timber. “That’s about 40 different bits of timber that I’ve used – some are offcuts from pieces I worked on 20 years ago,” the Wandana Heights sculptor and furniture-maker said. “The sculptures are almost a bi-product. I struggle to throw the off cuts and old timer away, so I always keep them. “I’ve still got trunks that I cut 15 years ago

Once you start recycling something you can see it go from a state of disrepair to getting a new life

’’

- Darren Matthews sitting in the shed, waiting for me to make something out of them.” Matthews was a “hands-on kid from birth” and worked 25 years as toolmaker in iron and aluminium foundries and factories for Ford. But his marriage to wife Linda about three decades ago led him to a new medium. The couple bought their first home together in Moriac, inspiring Matthews to have a go at furniture-making, he explained. “When you buy your first home you sort of think, ‘I need to make something like a table or stand’,” he said. “As a toolmaker you can use those hand skills to manipulate wood.” His work began with a slab of grey weathered timber from an old pig sty on the property. “I always admired how neat it looked and how well it had weathered,” he said. Cutting into the slab revealed “beautiful rich brown timber” inside, and after restoring the piece he gave it new life as a table by mounting it on forked tree stump.

“I presented the piece to a gallery and they put it in, and it sold a month later,” he said. “Then I really got interested, because it was a little bit of extra pocket money, and I started looking at things a bit differently. “When I’m walking past a tree now, I’m always thinking, ‘what could I do with that bit of branch or that trunk?’ “I’ve been doing it ever since.” He began searching for old timber and felled trees, bringing back “the natural beauty from the inside” of wood that would have otherwise ended up burned, mulched or at the tip. “Once you start recycling something you can see it go from a state of disrepair to getting a new life,” he said. “Not every piece of wood that you cut into will work. They’ll tear or you’ll find grubs in them and you’ll say, ‘I actually can’t use this’. “But you’re never sure until you cut into them.” And having an arborist as a mate also helps in his search for wood to recycle. “They would say, “hey, do you want this trunk?’” he said. “We have a house full of stuff I’ve made.” And some of his work is now on display, until September 27, in Geelong Sculptors’ annual exhibition, Recent Works, at Eagles Nest Gallery in Aireys Inlet. Matthews is vice president of the group, and among 45 Geelong and Surf Coast sculptors exhibiting more than 80 works in a variety of mediums, shapes and sizes. The exhibition launched last weekend, after the group postponed last year and again the weekend before last due to COVID-19 lockdowns. The exhibition is open Friday to Monday 10am-5pm.

MY GEELONG Tell us about you… I was born and raised on the Surf Coast and went to St Bernard’s Primary School in Belmont. Aldi now occupies that space but I used to climb the most amazing peppercorn trees there while waiting for dad to pick me up in his bright blue Falcon. Back in the ’70s I was a Sacred Heart College student that learnt to smoke on the school bus from Torquay to the mall in Geelong. Smoking interfered with my lifestyle and I enjoyed dancing too much, so thankfully that habit was short-lived. I’ve had lifetimes as a secondary school teacher and lectured at Deakin University in dance education for nearly 30 years.

Jacqui Dreessens shares her love of dance with Luke Voogt following the opening of her Mangroves from the Water exhibition last weekend.

Why do people make up dances? How is dance constructed and why is it meaningful to people? I have created many dances for the High Tide Festival here in Torquay over the years. I love creating dances that reflect where I live. It helps me to feel that I belong to the community. My most interesting choreography happened in a slave dungeon in Ghana in 2007: Children of the Blue Light. My son Immanuel Dreessens-Owusu and I performed with Asanti Dance Theatre and my Australian dancers in Wild Moves International.

Why do you love dance? Dancing brings me into the present moment where nothing else exists except the feeling of oneness with nature, people, music and just being a human being. I’m an ethnochoreologist – I study humanity through the lens of the dance.

healing between nations. What are your favourite things to do locally? Walking my dog Spozzie Woz along the Jan Juc cliffs and searching the rock pools at Bird Rock. Hanging out in sea caves and gathering ideas for choreography as I jump from rock to rock at ‘steps’ when the tide is out. My favourite Yoga studio is Desa Retreat for time out to tune into just me. How are you coping with COVID-19? I had to change gears and reinvent myself.

All my teaching and gigs in schools, the community and at festivals stopped. My rumpus room turned into my dance and drumming studio on Zoom and my family got used to me thumping upstairs and calling out, “Hoodie Boogie! Dogs on leads! Hoodie Boogie! Take my Lead!” During COVID I have been dancing in the mangrove forest at Lake Connewarre making my new dance film Échelons. It’s a dance about grief and transformation to love and connection. My father was passing into the next world and I felt like my roots

were being severed. Kayaking on the Barwon River and silently sitting, filming and dancing in the mangroves forged a new way of being. I used this experience as I performed at the opening of Mangroves from the Water at Gordon Gallery. It never ceases to amaze me how important my art form is to lift me into a new beginning and how lucky I am to share that with the community within a brief window between lockdowns.

Honda City proves a great family option Honda City is a four-door sedan that shares most of its underpinnings with the Honda Jazz. However, it has a completely different body and sits on at longer wheelbase. The sedan body made the City almost as large as the five-door Honda Civic, though slightly narrower inside. Having said that, it might be worth checking out a used Civic if you’re planning to use a Jazz as a family car. As they tend to be bought by sensible people Citys are often looked after, driven gently and serviced strictly by the book. So used-car buys can be in very good condition for their indicated mileage. However, we still recommend a full professional inspection, just in case. The City was late arriving in Australia when it came here February 2009 as it had been been sold in other countries for many years. Small sedans aren’t big sellers here as many prefer hatchbacks or small to medium SUVs. Interior space in the Honda City is impressive, with good head and legroom front and rear. The low floor in the back seat means three adults can be carried. There’s a rigid structure under the back window of sedans, rather than a very large hole in hatchbacks. So, there’s a quieter, more comfortable ride in the four-door than a five-door. Particularly on harsh roads. The boot of this Honda sedan is impressive at 506 litres. In fact, it’s bigger than the big Aussie rear-drive family sedans of the time. A facelift in 2012 saw a bright chrome grille, redesigned front and rear bumpers and revised rear lights. Inside, there’s aluminium-look details on the panels, and new seat fabrics. Thicker window glass and enhanced carpets improved cabin quietness. May 2014 saw Honda launch the second generation of its City. Slightly larger than before, with boot capacity up by 30 litres to a whopping 536 litres.

It was fitted with a comprehensive kit of active and passive safety features as well as advanced communication technology. Power comes from a high-revving engine displacing 1.5 litres. This was refined in the 2014 gen-two City to give more performance with slightly less fuel use. The biggest change under the bonnet was the fitment of a CVT automatic in place of the conventional unit on the early cars. Handling is pleasant enough, with the City being happy to turn into corners and stable once in them. It’s happy to change direction and only when you are pushing it hard does understeer come into the equation. Honda is thoroughly established in Australia as a mainstream player so there are plenty of dealerships. Spare parts prices are about average for the class. Though a good home mechanic can do routine servicing and minor repairs it really is best to leave the work to a qualified mechanic.

What to look for A City that has been poorly repaired after a smash may attract rust. However, we’ve never seen rust in an undamaged City.

Make sure the engine starts promptly and idles evenly pretty well straight away. If possible, arrange to start it when it’s cold after an overnight stop. An engine that hesitates when revved suddenly may have problems. Manual gearchanges should be light, positive and quiet. Problems will usually show up first on fast third-to-second changes. The clutch pedal should be smooth in its operation. A conventional automatic transmission should be crisp in its changes and not hold onto any gear for too long. A continuously variable automatic transmission feels different in its operation so have an expert check it out if you are not confident it’s working correctly.

How much? Expect to pay from $3000 to $5000 for a 2009 Honda City VTi; $5000 to $9000 for a 2012 VTi-L; $6000 to $10,000 for a 2016 VT-I; $7000 to $11,000 for a 2014 VTi-L; $8000 to $12,000 for a 2015 VTi-L; $9000 to $13,000 for a 2016 VTi-L; $11,000 to $17,000 for a 2020 VT-i; and $13,000 to $18,000 for a 2020 VTi-L.

Tight battle for top four in final round of season LOCAL TENNIS Donna Schoenmaekers

Wandana Heights’ pair Rohan Perrott and Tania de Koning-Ward help their side reach the finals with a 4-2 win to leapfrog opponents Portarlington. (Supplied)

It was put up or shut up for Tennis Geelong’s junior and senior players in the final round of the home-and-away season last Saturday. In the Section 2 mixed seniors three teams battled for fourth spot with Portarlington (fourth) just one premiership point ahead of opponent Wandana Heights (fifth) going into the round, and Ocean Grove (sixth) another point back. Portarlington would have hoped for a repeat of its comfortable 4-2 win against Wandana Heights in round 7. But last Saturday started badly for Portarlington with Wandana making the most of its home court advantage to take the first two sets 6-2 7-5. The men’s set put Portarlington on the board with a 6-2 win, but Tania de Koning-Ward and Robyn O’Donoghue countered for Wandana in the ladies taking a tight set 7-5.

The final two sets saw Wandana take a comfortable win in the fifth 6-2 and go down in a tie-break in the final set, with the 4-2 win pushing them past Portarlington into fourth. The win left Ocean Grove needing a straight-sets victory over seventh-placed Waurn Ponds to leapfrog into fourth. But Waurn Ponds proved too tough an opponent at home for an easy scalp, with Ocean Grove only able to eke out a four-game win with the sets level at three-all. The match seesawed throughout the day with five sets decided by just two games. The difference came in the men’s set where Lochie Treharne and Beau McGoldrick blasted their opponents 6-0 to give Ocean Grove the win on games. Ocean Grove passed Portarlington but finished agonisingly short in fifth. Top team Moolap cemented their place as minor premiers with a 6-0 win over wooden-spooners Anglesea. With only one loss for the season, the team

of Courtney Leech, Sophie de Wit, Lachie Edgar and Mark Core are showing ominous form leading into the first semi-final against Grovedale Black. The two teams played each other twice in an interrupted season with one win each, so it will be a match to watch. The final clash of the round was a grudge match between Grovedale’s second-placed Black and third-placed Yellow. Black were four points ahead at the start of the day so, with a lower percentage, Yellow needed a 5-1 win to push past their club rivals. But Black had other ideas and came out strong taking the first two comfortably 6-2, 6-3. Yellow’s men rallied to take their set 6-2 but in the ladies Bronwyn Attard and Lynette Marshall proved too consistent taking the next 6-4 for Black. Black took the final two 6-1 7-6, consolidating second place and a double-chance final against Moolap, with Yellow now facing a sudden-death clash against Wandana Heights next Saturday.

Perfect storm at Bells Jeff Sweeney. (Zaz)

Local surfers braved towering storm swells at the Bells Beach 50 Year Storm Invitational on Monday. Competitors rode waves more than three metres high, measured from the rear, equating to about the height of a two-storey building on the face. Tim Stevenson took out the best surfer despite no sleep after working the night before. “This is such a special event and I feel honoured to win,” Stevenson said. “It was really fun, it was a storm and the reason behind the event is no joke.” Diminutive giant-killing teen surfer Angela Ball won the Johnny Utah award with an epic wave after taking some heavy wipe outs earlier in the heat. The oldest competitor, Jeff Sweeney, surfed what was considered to be the biggest wave of the day. The event runs on the best and biggest surf day between June 1 and August 30, with a public voting system to choose the invitees. The field featured 30 local male and female surfers aged 16 to 56, with 10 surfers competing in each heat for the best wave out of 100 points. The Bells Beach 50 Year Storm Invitational is held in honour of former world junior and Victorian open champion Shaun Brooks, who took his own life in 2012 after a long battle with mental illness. “I was bummed that I couldn’t come down to compete in the event,” said Shaun’s younger

brother Troy, a former WCT competitor who was unable to attend due to COVID-19 restrictions. “Our family is stoked that a bunch of Shaun’s mates have come together to put on not just an awesome memorial surfing event, but also drive support for mental health and youth suicide prevention.” The event has so far raised $20,000 for mental health organisations and initiatives including 50 Year Storm, One in Five, Headspace and Movember.

Stakes are high for Cats By Luke Voogt Geelong faces a potentially season-defining clash against Melbourne for the minor premiership tomorrow night. With the Cats guaranteed a top-four spot following last week’s win over St Kilda, a win against the ladder leaders would move them into at least the top two. Geelong coach Chris Scott indicated the Cats would not “take liberties” despite the reduced rest period due to the AFL scrapping the pre-finals bye. “The stakes are too high in terms of improving our game,” he told a press conference yesterday. “We’ve got some parts of our game that we want to continue to work on. “It’s always a better opportunity to work on those things against the better teams, and Melbourne are clearly that.” Gary Rohan looks likely to return from a hip injury tomorrow, which could allow Esava Ratugolea to spend more time in the ruck as

Mark Blicavs moves back to cover the void left by injured star backman Tom Stewart. Tom Atkins appears likely to return too, but Scott indicated small forward Gryan Miers was only an outside chance to return from a lower leg fracture. The Demons dominated contested possession against Geelong’s midfield, minus Patrick Dangerfield, in their 25-point win in round 4. But with Dangerfield back, Scott said he backed “our guys” against Melbourne’s dangerous midfield. With Victoria’s COVID-19 worsening, winning tomorrow night and securing a top two spot still might not earn Geelong a qualifying final at GHMBA Stadium. “The probability is that the finals series will be played on neutral venues,” Scott said. But he highlighted the multitude of obstacles and factors that the AFL had to consider in fixturing the finals series. “The AFL has been an outstanding custodian of the game throughout an almost impossible

period to govern,” Scott said. “They will be beholden to the governments and the rules of the day.” Scott played down the importance of the AFL scrapping the pre-finals bye, although he admitted it would lessen the chances of Zac Tuohy (hamstring) and Mitch Duncan (knee) returning in time for the qualifying final. “As a collective we’re fine to roll on,” Scott said. “It has hurt those two individuals ... a little bit, but if we can get the job done and play for long enough, then it won’t be an issue for them either.” The lack of bye would not affect the return of Stewart, according to Scott. “Tom Stewart’s come off his surgery, by all accounts, really well,” he said “But the pre-finals bye wasn’t going to be a factor there especially given his only hope at this stage of playing would be on grand final day. To the best of our knowledge that date hasn’t changed.”

More than a milestone for Blicavs Geelong’s clash with Melbourne tomorrow night is much bigger than a milestone game for Mark Blicavs with the Cats fighting for the minor premiership. “I’m very excited for this week’s game, not only because it’s my 200th but it’s a chance for us to get top spot and … really push the momentum going into finals,” he said. “I’m trying to not think too much about it. I think it’s something post-career I’ll look back more fondly on.” But the Cats utility took a little time during Tuesday’s press conference to remember wrestling tall defenders, like the legendary Matthew Scarlett, in marking contests during his first training drills almost a decade ago. “I just couldn’t believe how physically-strong [they] were, and I was 79-80 kilos thinking, ‘oh wow, what have I done here?’” he said. “To play with all of these legends of the game and to get to the stage where I am now, it’s something I try not to take not for granted each day.” The former steeple-chaser and middle distance runner worked hard on his kicking and marking after switching from athletics to football and deciding “I’d better give this my all”. “Initially I just got to the club and wanted to prove people who thought I couldn’t do it wrong,” he said. Unsurprisingly, he excelled in his first time trial at the club, lapping the field including “fitness freaks” Joel Selwood and former Cat Josh walker at Landy Field. “I was never thinking to pull back at all. I wanted to win by as much as I [could] to show that I could run,” he said. “That’s what I’ve tried to be my whole career – just really competitive – and push myself as much as I can, and hopefully that pushes others as well.” The 30-year-old reckons his athletics background also helped him avoid injury throughout his football career. “I think it helped me build resilience in my body which has allowed me to play 20-plus games every season,” he said. “I’ve had injuries due to big hits or tackles, but any soft tissue type stuff – touch wood – I’ve been lucky.” Unfortunately for the Cats, Blicavs will have to play his 200th without backline comrade Tom Stewart, who underwent surgery this week for a foot injury. “It sucks. I’m personally really sad, we all are,” Blicavs said. “It’s bad timing, he’s a superstar player, who is having ... in my opinion another All-Australian year, and [he is] one of our most important players.” 22 GEELONG INDEPENDENT Friday, 20 August, 2021

Salmon are running riot along coast ON THE BITE Peri Stavropoulos The inner harbour of Geelong is still offering some reasonable quality snapper with anglers continuing to land good fish. The north shore area has definitely seemed to be the main spot worth looking with fish reaching upwards of 6kg cruising about with more than enough fish to 40cm amongst them to keep busy and put a feed on the table. When fishing this time of year for snapper it is important to have as much going for you as possible, so fishing with freshly-caught baits is definitely an odds-booster. Squid, garfish, snook or salmon all make great bait and fishing a tide change after dark is the key to most anglers’ success. Garfish have unfortunately slowed down a bit during the last week or so, we wouldn’t be surprised if they were all caught. There are still a few anglers getting around in search of them with some success and some big garfish amongst the buckets of fish. Owen Westwell fished off St Helens during the week and managed plenty of yellow eye mullet as bi-catch whilst chasing the gars. The fish were reaching around 35cm in length – plenty of burley was the trick to get them around and silverfish made the best bait. They’re a very underrated target species as they’re fun to catch, make great bait and, when bled and put on ice, they make a good feed. As with most weeks the squid and whiting fishing remains pretty good and steady with anglers managing to secure their bags of fish most outings. St Leonards, Queenscliff and between have been the best locations for both species. The squid have been responding well to solid black and natural coloured jigs, and the whiting have been biting best whilst fishing the stronger tide changes. The surf beaches have been a great option to get your fishing fix during the crazy windy conditions with Australian salmon running riot along the coast. Bombing out long casts into the schools of fish and ripping metal lures through the school should produce plenty of bites with 30-60 grams being the ideal weight. Lake Purrumbete is still giving up some very good quality trout in the shallows to anglers casting hard-body lures during the week with fish to 4kg being caught. Mudeye under a bubble float is another great option to use when chasing trout in there also.

Scarlett, now the Cats’ backline coach, called on his defenders to “all step up” and collectively fill the “massive void” left by Stewart’s injury, according to Blicavs. “We can’t replace him because he’s a pretty unique player,” Blicavs said. “But we can all defend a bit better, attack the ball a bit better, and that’s what Scarlo’s asked of us and we’re training like that. “I don’t think it’s one player that can step up dramatically. I think it’s a lot of players that just need to fine tune a little bit.”

Blicavs said he would likely “play a lot more behind the ball” than in the ruck, on-ball or on the wing, at least initially as the Cats adjust. Wingers Isaac Smith and Sam Menegola had set the example for Geelong’s midfielders in getting back to help out their defenders, he added. “We demand everyone to come back and help in [defensive] 50.” Luke Voogt
