Holiday tourism boom

By Abbey Cannan Noosa’s tourism operators are gearing up for a hat-trick of long weekends this month to deliver a bumper holiday season.

Tourism Noosa chief executive officer Melanie Anderson said the combination

of three long weekends in a row, along with three weeks of school holidays between Queensland, NSW and Victoria, has strengthened forward bookings to an average of 70 per cent across the region for the entire month of April.

Fight for Fed Hall

By Maggie Maccoll Federal doesn’t have a township, a pub, a general store or a post office, only a hall, built as a memorial hall to commemorate local soldiers, on land donated by the Otto family.

Now Noosa Council wants the prime lease of the hall to be taken over by an independent private school.

Last Sunday the Federal Memorial Hall and Community Centre Committee organised a public meeting to discuss an approach from

BOOKINENGSDED RECOMM

Noosa Council, proposing the hall be leased to the Mary Valley Steiner School, allowing the community only to sub-lease it when available on weekends outside school hours.

According to the 2016 Census there are 300 people in 86 families living in private homes in the farming community of Federal.

About 50 people from those families attended the meeting, showing by their numbers, comments and a petition containing more than 950 signatures, the support to retain the hall for the community.

Committee treasurer Mick Jones told the meeting Council notified the committee on 21 February about the hall’s low usage.

“Council want to obtain better utilisation of the hall. Federal Hall has one of the lowest usage rates in the Shire,“ he said.

At a meeting with Council, the committee heard the Steiner school wanted to hold the prime lease on the hall in order to have a base with which they could move ahead with a development application to get funding for a school.

The current lease on the hall is due to expire on 1 July.

“It would mean the current use of the hall would have to be a sublease from Mary Valley Steiner School.

“We didn’t understand how that would work for the community. The Council didn’t have information on how that would work.

“Council will provide more information on how that relationship could work at a meeting on 28 April,“ Mick said.

Noosa scored 70 out of 100 for liveability in the first ever Liveability Survey.

Noosa rates liveability Noosa scored 70 out of 100 for liveability in the first Liveability Survey conducted by Noosa Council and Place Score, where more than 1600 people rated their experience in their neighbourhood.

This rating places two points above Place Score’s national benchmark average and a higher score than similar surveys in Brisbane, Townsville and the Sunshine Coast.

Kin Kin, Noosa North Shore and Cooran were the only neighbourhoods performing under the national average, while Noosa’s worst performing attribute was noted as the range of housing prices and tenures (4.8/10).

The neighbourhoods with the highest levels of liveability include Noosa Heads (74/100), Peregian Beach and Marcus Beach (73/100), Noosaville (72/100), and Pomona (71/100).

Protecting our natural environment, neighbourhood safety and the importance of local business are considered Noosa’s greatest strengths by those who live, work and visit the shire.

Mayor Clare Stewart said the overwhelming response gave Council a clear way to prioritise

future investment and works.

“I want to thank the community for providing their opinions which has given us valuable data to utilise when making future decisions,” she said.

“The information will also be used in current budget deliberations.

“It was no surprise to see sense of community and our natural environment rank highly as strengths of this shire,” Cr Stewart said.

According to the findings, Noosa’s neighbourhoods are performing well where it matters most, meeting community members’ values regarding the local economy and environmental sustainability.

Another key finding was that regardless of how long people have lived here, the importance of Noosa’s unique natural features and protecting the natural environment rated highly.

The general condition of public open spaces and walking/cycling paths also are highly valued by the community.

“The beauty of this data is that it will assist us to better understand the different

The Easter holidays are in full swing in Noosa and the weather has turned it on for the tourists and locals to enjoy the beach and outdoors before the cooler weather arrives.

Just as they did before Christmas, the Queensland Government has further relaxed Covid restrictions ahead of the Easter long weekend.

With more than 90 per cent of Queenslanders 12 years and over vaccinated, Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk says the purpose of slowing the spread of the disease has been achieved and we can safely “ease the settings“ and maintain a high level of protection.

From Thursday 14 April, most venues that have been open only to vaccinated staff and patrons will be open to all.

These venues include pubs, clubs, cafes and restaurants, theme parks, casinos and cinemas, weddings, showgrounds, galleries, libraries, museums and stadiums.

There will still be requirement for vaccinations in vulnerable settings including hospitals, aged and disability care, prisons, schools and early childhood centres When the announcement came out on Tuesday, the state recorded about 9950 new cases of Covid. There were almost 60,000 active cases in the state, about 480 people in hospital, 15 in ICU and eight lives had been lost in the past 24 hours.

- Margaret Maccoll values and experiences in neighbourhoods and villages across the shire,” Council’s Principal Strategic Planner Michelle Tucker said.

“Some areas that are highly valued could be improved, which centred on the condition of public open spaces and the need to potentially invest in active and public transport options to improve connections,” she said.

Community in battle to retain lease for Federal Hall From page 1 He said no formal process had been initiated to date but they were told Council planned to hold an internal workshop on Tuesday 5 April for staff to provide information on the proposal to councillors.

Councillors Joe Jurisevic, Karen Finzel and Amelia Lorentson attended the public meeting.

“The committee thought it important to bring this matter to the community to gauge community support for the hall to continue as a community asset to provide for the community,“ Mick said.

“We want to understand what sort of support there is so we, as a committee, are acting in the best interests of the community.

“We’ve been asked by Council to provide a plan as to how we’ll better utilise the hall.“ “The committee has been told over two years (during Covid) we need to control events and restrict events. We’re only coming out of that.“ The committee called for the community to put forward ideas, which they would combine with the petition for a formal process of support for the hall.

Residents spoke about the many community events held at the hall, including Anzac Day ceremonies, weddings, wakes, birthdays and community dinners - events that couldn’t be held only on available times.

Former treasurer Bruce Cameron told the meeting the 90-year-old hall required maintenance but with the community unable to raise money for its maintenance, it was handed to Council as trustee in 1989.

Former committee president Jeanette McGuire said she was president at the time the hall was turned over to the Council as trustees.

“The discussion then was that the hall would be for the use of the community,“ she said.

Federal Hall Committee holds a community meeting to discuss the future of its hall.

Pictures: ROB MACCOLL “Council doesn’t own the hall.

“It’s for the community to decide what they think is the best use of the hall.“ The meeting heard Council contributed $3000-$5000 annually for maintenance while the committee was liable for ongoing operating costs of its security system and a hefty insurance excess, and required a lease in order to conduct fundraising activities for the hall.

Mick said financially the committee was very stable.

“We don’t make money but we’re not going backwards.“ Another former committee member said the committee’s plans to upgrade a playground next to the hall had been stalled with a development application sitting with Council for the past six months.

Former committee president Rosemary Burrows said her committee had been responsible for obtaining a $30,000 grant

for the playground.

Rosemary said prior to Covid the hall was well used with regular activities such as meal nights.

“We have a great little community. The hall is for the community not for Council. We don’t agree with it. Hopefully we’ll keep the hall.“ In February this year, the State Government acknowledged the importance of its 127 state-government funded community and neighbourhood centres with a funding boosts to each of $20,000.

At the time, Minister for Communities Leeanne Enoch described the centres as being on the frontline supporting Queenslanders through the pandemic but said they had faced challenges in delivering their service and support to the community as well as reduced income from the hire of venues due to the pandemic.

Some residents joined the meeting from the hall’s verandah.

The band.

Pictures: SUPPLIED

Band leader and bass player Con Delo.

Music’s game-changers Big, bald and buffed, and favouring tight jeans and tees, Con Delo looks like the kind of bloke you wouldn’t want to encounter late at night in a dark alley.

But nothing could be further from the truth.

Con is known throughout the music industry for his warmth, humour and generosity of spirit. And the 50-something bass player also happens to be the leader of the world’s biggest covers band.

From humble beginnings in Adelaide just four years ago, the Hindley Street Country Club has become the global poster child for the new/old music industry, with the mindblowing metrics of 230 million social media views of their 217-song catalogue of golden oldies, and a 600,000 subscriber base. These numbers will be wildly out of date by the time you read this, and by the time the 12-piece band gets here next month for two concerts at The J, their viewership on YouTube, Instagram and Facebook, growing at 500,000 a day, will have passed a quarter of a billion.

What the hell is going on?

“It’s just frickin’ outrageous,” Con Delo chortles down the line from Adelaide.

“I can’t quite put a finger on what is happening. It’s gone totally out of control, beyond my wildest dreams.”

But the phenomenal success of the band in all the major world music markets is certainly

not dumb luck, as anyone who caught their first Noosa show at The J last October will attest.

These hard-working session players are all known by their peers as “musicians’ musicians” whose virtuosity is renowned. Luck comes into the equation, however, with the emergence of the Hindley Street Country Club just before the world went into an entertainment-starved two-year lockdown.

The music industry’s incredible slide into the past didn’t begin with Covid and it won’t disappear when Covid does, but the pandemic has certainly super-charged a decade-old trend in which old music has almost buried new music.

Lamenting the fact that old songs now represent 70 per cent of the US music market in an article in The Atlantic magazine in January, music writer Ted Gioia wrote: “Even worse, the new music market is actually shrinking.”

In a perceptive article called Is Old Music Killing New Music? (answer: absolutely), Gioia cites damning evidence from MRC Data, the leading US music analytics firm: “The 200 most popular new tracks released in the US now regularly count for less than five per cent of total streams. The ratio was twice as big three years ago. And the mix of songs actually purchased by consumers is even more tilted towards older music.

“The current list of most downloaded tracks

on iTunes is filled with the names of bands from the previous century, such as Creedence Clearwater Revival and The Police.”

Other evidence of the trend away from contemporary music is the collapse of viewer numbers for the Grammy Awards, once the music industry’s biggest self-celebration.

From 40 million viewers in 2012, the televised awards dropped 53 per cent from the previous year in 2021 to 8.8 million.

This year they have been postponed and no one cares.

In the investment world, the big firms are getting into bidding wars for the song catalogues of artists in their 70s and 80s, like Bob Dylan, Paul Simon and Bruce Springsteen, and the best-selling form of physical music remains the vinyl LP, which is itself more than 70 years old.

While all this is happening, down in sleepy Adelaide HSCC have racked up 70 songs with more than a million views each.

At the top of the list is Grover Washington’s Just The Two Of Us (1980) with 13 million, followed by Starship’s Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now (1987) at 9.3 million. You can find the originals on YouTube, of course, but Con Delo says that HSCC’s point of difference is that he works hard on new arrangements.

“There are a lot of covers bands around the world, but most of them perform the songs verbatim, exactly as the original.

“I don’t. I change the grooves around, I muck around with the chords. The way I explain it is, I put a bit of Aussie muscle into them.”

Delo started playing music very young and as a teenager drifted into playing gigs with different bands around Adelaide where the flair and authority of his bass playing was soon recognised and led him to session work and to backing visiting major artists.

“I ended up working for the Hard Rock Cafe in China, opening up their venues in Beijing and Shanghai and bringing Australian bands in.

That helped get me a reputation internationally. In fact a lot of the music we do now as HSCC is what I was playing back then,” he said.

Delo writes all of the arrangements for the band, but adds: “I also write some of my own material, but the way the recording industry is now there’s just no traction for it, so a lot of my ideas end up going into new arrangements of old songs.

“I’ve got a lot of original material up my sleeve that I’d like to release one day, but I never go into the studio thinking, oh god, not more covers. They actually give you a great canvas to work on.”

The popularity of old songs has happened simultaneously with the collapse of what used to be known as record sales, now a diminishing market of digital downloads, vinyls and fastdisappearing CDs.

In the good old days, a band would release an album and go on the road to promote its sales. Now the business model has been flipped, with bands relying on social media to make their names and live performances to create revenue.

Despite having achieved global recognition in record time, and with more than $25,000 a month coming in from YouTube advertising (plus other smaller royalty streams, such as Spotify), Con Delo says he’s never had to work harder in his life.

“But I’m loving it,” he adds.

The way Delo describes how HSCC works, it’s clear that he’s as much an entrepreneur as a musician. He says: “The way the industry works now means that you have to work ridiculously hard. I select the songs we’re going to do and send them to the guys and girls to learn, then we get together for a recording session and I’ll make some final changes to the arrangements, then we run through three or four times and we record.

“It takes about 90 minutes a song, we do two songs a session and we do it over two nights on a Monday and Tuesday between five and nine, including setup time.

“So then we’ve got four songs, which is a month’s content. We release a song every Friday at 7.30am Adelaide time, which is late Thursday afternoon in America. Then you sit back and wait. Generally you can tell within a couple of hours how a song is going to go.”

So far, they’re all going well, many phenomenally well, and both Delo and HSCC’s manager, Noosa-based Dennis Dunstan, say the end is not in sight.

Says Delo: “It won’t end when Covid is just a memory because now we’ve hit critical mass.

We’re getting 13 million new views a month, the majority of them international.

“On top of that we’re getting 25,000 new subscribers a month and a lot of them are coming from jurisdictions where they’re not dealing with Covid any more, they’re out and about. The graphs all show that it’s exponential growth.”

Says Dunstan, who managed Fleetwood Mac through two of their most productive decades: “In the modern music industry you just have to be on YouTube, and when you look at HSCC’s growth, Australia only represents about five per cent of those views whereas the US is around 30 per cent, so we’re planning a massive American tour later in the year to venues of up to 2000, and we’ll fill them.

“Europe is going to be good too. The band has the potential to make a lot of money touring globally. They are so good, so professional that they’re now recognised as the world’s best covers band.

“You’ve got a line-up that includes five lead singers, three of them gorgeous and talented girls. It’s a bit like Fleetwood Mac in that sense.

Something magic happens when they perform.”

After recent sell-out shows in Sydney and Melbourne, and with Noosa and Perth coming up, Con Delo says he can’t wait to take the excitement of a HSCC live performance onto the international stage later this year.

“If you’re a muso, it’s what you live for. And we all get along really well. We’re a bit older, there are no rampant egos and we’re thoroughly professional. But we want to have fun too, we don’t take ourselves too seriously.”

Seagrass is disappearing

By Phil Jarratt Noosa River estuary has lost more than 80 per cent of its seagrass over the last 33 years and it shows no sign of recovering, according to an alarming new report.

The Noosa River Estuary Seagrass Distribution Study 2021, prepared by Ecological Service Professionals for The Nature Conservancy, notes that ,in 1989, there were 337.4 hectares of seagrass in the estuary but by 2006 just 53.7 hectares.

After a slight recovery, the coverage had dropped back to almost that level (56.1) by 2020.

Storms and flooding are the most likely cause of the disappearing seagrass meadows, but the big question is what is preventing their recovery in the Noosa River?

ESP principal ecologist Dr Simon Walker, author of the study, says: “Recovery from impacts such as flooding in other similar seagrass meadows has occurred within a few years. This is not the case in Noosa.”

Seagrass meadows help to sustain the biodiversity of the river by providing food and shelter for a wide range of marine fauna which in turn provides food for many larger, commercially and recreationally important species of crustacean, mollusc and finfish. In other words, less seagrass, less seafood stock.

Noosa’s seagrass meadows have been challenged for a century and a half, since the late 1800s when the upriver timber industry caused the release of large quantities of sediment into the estuary.

The situation escalated after World War II as farms became more mechanised and the family tractor could push further up the slopes, and every time it rained, a mountain of mud would head downstream.

Then as now, this process released high levels of suspended sediment into the system.

The concerning factor about Noosa’s de-

Picture: ROB MACCOLL

pleted seagrass is that while neighbouring areas, such as Great Sandy Straits and Moreton Bay, seem able to regenerate over a few years, the long-term evidence now is that Noosa’s cannot, and the experts don’t yet know why.

“Because of their importance for estuarine ecosystems, the precise drivers for the decline and lack of recovery of the Noosa River Estuary seagrass meadows need urgent investigation,” Dr Walker said.

Seagrass meadows in the Noosa River.

“Better understanding of the Noosa River system would advise river managers who could advocate for resources to enable research and recovery action.”

Noosa River Stakeholder Advisory Committee member and vice-president of Noosa Parks Association Dr Michael Gloster said one hypothesis was that over the past century and a half, sediment had gradually accumulated in the system, and a tipping point had been reached sometime in the past 30 years, with

high levels of sediment blocking recovery.

Noosa Today understands the expert advice is that the seagrass depletion issue needs the development of small, targeted and experimental responses rather than large-scale intervention, which would be expensive and possibly counter-productive.

One theory is that Noosa’s problem with recovery relates to the fact that the river has several different species of seagrass in different areas, as well as different mixes of different types of sediment in different areas, so one fix doesn’t fit all.

Dr Gloster told Noosa Today that the worst outcome from the release of the report would be that nothing is done. “Previous reports on the health of the river have ended up gathering dust on council shelves.

“That can’t happen this time. It’s really important that council retains The Nature Conservancy to commission ongoing research work to better understand what’s stopping the natural regeneration that’s happening in neighbouring areas.

“It’s also vital that council retains TNC to do targeted trials on remediation.”

The current three-year TNC contract with council to commence oyster reef recovery in the Noosa River by constructing four new reefs between Tewantin and Noosa Heads, and to provide expert scientific advice to council on related issues such as seagrass, is up for review in the middle of this year. Interestingly, earlier oyster reef trials in the river showed that they helped stabilise the sediment in the water, and the seagrass started to grow back in adjacent areas, so the issues are closely linked.

Dr Gloster said he was cautiously optimistic that councillors would support further river studies since several of them, Mayor Stewart included, had already started to play a more proactive role in managing the river. “Over the next few months, we’ll see how serious they are about that,” he said.

Holiday boom for tourism From page 1 “This is about 10 per cent higher than last year and more than 15 per cent higher than in 2019. It’s even stronger in Noosa Heads, at 76 per cent,” Ms Anderson said.

“I would encourage visitors to get out and about and explore beyond the beach and explore our beautiful coastal, river and hinterland villages – our tourism operators are looking forward to welcoming you.”

For the Easter long weekend, bookings are around 84 per cent (almost 90 per cent in Noosa Heads) – about 10 per cent stronger than in 2019 and around the same as last year.

“We see strong bookings continue after Easter (75 per cent) and after the Queensland school holidays have finished, as NSW and Victoria still have another week of holidays,” Ms Anderson said.

“The southern school holidays flow into the Anzac Day long weekend, which is now at around 73 per cent booked. Labour Day long weekend is a little lower at 62 per cent occupancy, but we’d expect this to lift in the next couple of weeks.”

As a comparison, other normal weekends in May are now averaging about 50 per cent occupancy, and the Labour Day weekend last year was only about 45 per cent booked at this time.

Noosa Blue general manager Ryan Rae said it was shaping up to be a bumper holiday season.

“We are hoping this flows into the winter months as well, particularly with the New Zealand direct flights commencing in July and the world slowing opening up again,” he said.

“We are really looking forward to having some consistency in the market in general, particularly after the challenging past two years.”

Aspire Property Management’s Noosa Luxury Holiday’s manager Michal Svoboda said their team was ready for a busy, three-week Easter period.

Noosa’s tourism operators are ready to deliver the perfect getaway experiences for visitors.

“Easter is booked reasonably solidly from the first week of the Queensland Easter, school holidays, with bookings increasing from 8 April when NSW and Victoria start their twoweek holiday,” he said.

“With borders only opening in January, there are many families for whom this will be a first opportunity to get away in a very long time due to lock-downs.

“What our team and the whole Noosa tourism industry provides is just so very important to many people within our broader community. We are looking forward to welcoming our guests and working hard over the holidays to

make sure everything is well-managed, so they can relax, unwind, and enjoy some wellearned time off during their stay with us.”

The recent announcement that the Sunshine Coast Airport would be the base for Bonza Airlines, opening up access to 17 new destinations, was fantastic news for Noosa and the Sunshine Coast, Ms Anderson said.

Australia’s only independent low-cost carrier, Bonza, recently made the largest network announcement in Australian aviation history, and is now opening its doors for pilot and cabin crew applications.

“The influx of travellers from these new

destinations will provide great opportunities for tourism growth as well as providing employment opportunities for the region. This is great news all around,” she said.

Initially, around 200 roles will be available, with further growth expected.

“Recruitment, for largely pilots and cabin crew roles, comes at a time when the aviation industry needs a welcome shot in the arm, domestic tourism demand is building and Bonza is fast growing followers excited about our mission to give Aussies more choice when it comes to holidays,” Bonza chief executive officer Tim Jordan said.

“Considering the challenges they have faced - a global pandemic and the ongoing implications from this - and now the recent flood event, our local businesses need our support now more than ever” she said.

“Noosa Council has worked tirelessly to support local businesses and the aim of this campaign is to highlight how these local businesses benefit our community and how the community, in turn, can support them.

“Our small businesses are very much the lifeblood of this shire and we have over 7000 of them.”

Noosa Chamber of Commerce president Ralph Rogers commended Cr Stewart for this positive initiative.

“This is a great initiative of Cr Stewart’s,” he said.

“The Noosa economy has been underperforming and the only way we will change that is by politicians, like Cr Stewart, getting out and about and really engaging with the business community so we can identify and arrest this decline, understand the challenges that face our businesses, and work towards delivering the sort of growth the rest of Queensland is enjoying.

“This campaign demonstrates that Cr Stewart is someone who truly cares about people and our businesses.”

Cr Stewart kicked off the campaign meeting with local business Eclectic Style in Noosaville earlier this week.

Remanded for thefts A man was arrested by Sunshine Coast detectives at a Mountain Creek home following an increase in vehicle thefts on 29 March.

Rate rises on the cards Rate rises are on the cards after councillors at a special meeting held by Noosa Council last week spoke about the aim to keep rate rises within CPI levels while being mindful of cost of living and inflationary pressures on residents.

At the meeting, aimed at providing an overview of budget considerations, councillors urged residents to have input in the budget following Council’s inaugural year of community consultation on the budget last year.

Deputy Mayor Frank Wilkie said Council had taken feedback from residents on board.

“It did change the way we did the budget,“ he said.

The current budget forecasts a marginal deficit for 2021/22 of $0.6 million and a capital works program of $48 million with Council identifying its financial position as well ahead of budget but it has not yet incorporated any operating or capital financial impacts from the recent major weather event.

The budget is guided by Council’s Financial Sustainability Policy outlined by key principles that include ensuring Council operates in an efficient and effective manner, minimising general rate increases and achieves all financial benchmarks set by legislation.

External matters identified as influencing budget decision making and rate setting include household incomes, employment levels, rent prices and housing stock, house and land values, population trends, inflation, interest rates, economic conditions (GDP), ongoing impacts from Covid and disasters and state and federal government funding for grants and subsidies.

Average land values have increased 37 per cent across the board, rental prices are the highest in the region and the average household income is lower than Sunshine Coast and below the Queensland median, the meeting heard.

In its third year of Covid the impact has been felt in international tourism, commodity prices, supply chains, labour market and

Noosa spending examined in budget discussion. cost of materials.

Cr Brian Stockwell described the 2022-23 budget as one that would define this term of council. He said residents had voiced their interest in landscapes, livelihoods and lifestyle, not roads, rates and rubbish.

People want more pathways, better open spaces, streetscapes, he said. “We have to look

at priorities in capital works - how much we invest in assets most important to the economy - beaches, rivers, North Shore, so in 25 years time people will look back and say this council made the right decision, he said.

Cr Tom Wegener said roads, rates and rubbish were a huge part of the budget. The rubbish tip would be a huge cost coming up and

roads really needed a lot spent on them, he said.

Cr Joe Jurisevic said after the significant impact of flooding on some residents Council needed to look at flood mitigation and impacts of climate change.

Mayor Clare Stewart encouraged residents to get involved. “Have your voices heard. This is your budget, your community,“ she said.

DIGESTION & DENTURES DIGESTION: Is extremely important for your health: Eating heathy, nutritious foods is the key to a health digestive system. It is also especially important to consider how we chew and break down food for proper absorption.

Food particles that are not broken down properly can cause bacterial overgrowth in the colon, which can lead to bloating, constipation, and other digestive problems.

Does your denture fit securely?

When dentures do not fit securely, he pleasure of savouring foods is often accompanied by the fear of embarrassing slips or clicks.

Yet, another repercussion of poor-fitting dentures exists: a compromised digestive system. Issues such as indigestion, heartburn, headaches and low energy or fatigue could occur.

Your ability to eat: Missing teeth can also create difficulties in biting or chewing food. If your dentures are older than 5-6 years, it is time for an assessment to discuss the best options for your needs.

Apartment sells for $7m

The three-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment 15 at No. 1 in Hastings St, 1 Morwong Dve, Noosa Heads, has sold at auction for $7m. 273283

The two-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment 2 Tenalga, 21 Allambi Rise, Noosa Heads, has sold at auction. 273283

years of ownership and several generations enjoying Little Cove, our thrilled sellers have now passed the keys onto an over-the-moon excited buyer,” listers Luke Chen and Lauren Chen said, making it three out of three wins in two days. “The buyer and his wife were so eager to secure it, she went to sit on Little Cove Beach to calm her nerves, instead of being at the auction. “After attaching the sold sticker, the buyer walked down the hill with a bottle of champagne to surprise his wife and toast to their new slice of paradise.”

The Tenalga apartment was like a step

back in time ... a time when beach towels and bathers were rinsed in a shared laundry tub and hung on the clothes line to dry in the sea breeze from Laguna Bay. Tenalga is a peaceful complex resting on a quiet slip road, just above Little Cove beach and the boardwalk to Noosa’s National Park. Main Beach and Hastings Street are a few minutes stroll away.

The fully-renovated apartment 2 appears to float at the rear of the complex with its elevated position giving views to Laguna Bay and Noosa North Shore. When Tenalga was built, there were no numbers on the doors, Luke

said, just names such as Sunset, Tanglewood, and Sparkling Sea. The two-bedroom, one-bathroom, one-car apartment features expansive views through the floor-to-ceiling glass doors. The kitchen is highlighted by a stone-topped island bar and induction cooktop, built-in dishwasher and microwave.To the left, there’s a study area, wine nook and internal washing. The living area is open-plan and leads out onto the spacious balcony. As well as the main bathroom, there is a wet room off the main bedroom’s walk-in robe.

Apartment complex No 1 in Hastings Street is renowned for its spectacular Noosa Main Beach, Laguna Bay and hinterland views. And when apartment 15, listed by Tom Offermann Real Estate agents Luke Chen and Lauren Chen went under the hammer on Saturday, it was the first time in more three decades.

After a very strong marketing campaign, and spirited bidding, a repeat Victorian guest paid $7m. No 1 in Hastings Street has arguably the best aspect of Noosa Main Beach and Laguna Bay, according to Luke Chen. You can see along Hastings Street, to the river and the hinterland.

The three-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment has got everything. The open-plan living and dining spaces open seamlessly to the undercover terrace that stretches the width of the apartment. The U-shaped kitchen has 2-pac cabinetry, stone bench tops, the latest appliances and everything needed for the high-end holiday market.

The king-size main bedroom suite with terrace access, has a wall mounted television, a walk-in robe with long double vanity basins and ensuite bathroom. Two twin bedrooms have direct access to a family-style bathroom with a bathtub.

That wasn’t the only auction success for the father-and-daughter team at the weekend.

Bali Hai’s three-bedroom penthouse 11 at 20 Edgar Bennett Avenue, Noosa Heads, with a sky terrace and panoramic views, attracted an interested crowd who witnessed three bidders going head-to-head until the hammer fell at $1.8m to Brisbane buyers.

Not surprisingly, apartment 2 in Tenalga, a complex of four built in the ’60s with the premier address of 21 Allambi Rise, Little Cove, attracted much interest.

Six super-keen registered bidders battled it out until the gavel fell at $2.685m. “After 50

Shaun rallies for a cause

By Maggie Maccoll Noosa doctor Shaun Rudd became involved with a charity initiated in Hervey Bay in 2015 to raise money to help people who, through illness, have fallen on hard times financially.

“It all started with a young boy who had brain cancer and had to go to Brisbane from Hervey Bay for treatment,“ he said.

“We thought, how can we help these people and others with the same sort of problem.“ Rally for a Cause was formed with most funds raised through an annual Dunga Derby, a four day, three night rally, mainly on unsealed roads, from the coast to the country.

Other activities include raffles, gala dinners and sportsman’s lunches.

Over the years, the rally has grown and expanded from Hervey Bay. For the first time this year, the Sunshine Coast will stage its own rally to run on the same weekend with more than 100 vehicles and more than 400 people expected at the Dunga Derby on the last weekend in July.

Each car has to raise $2000 if there are two occupants and $2500 for four occupants, Dr Rudd said.

In addition, the administration expenses are sponsored by Hyne Timber and Hardware, enabling every dollar raised by the participants to go to the people who really require it.

The charity has so far raised more than $2 million and helped 168 families.

As well as being a derby participant, Dr Rudd, who moved from Hervey Bay to Noosa about five years ago, is on a recipient committee set up to screen all nominations for financial help.

“The money is no good to us sitting in the bank. We have one to two nominations a week come in and 99.9 per cent are well worthwhile,“ he said.

“We do anything to help anybody with a health issue in our own community.“

Dr Shaun Rudd and mate Brian get ready for the Dunga Derby.

Dr Rudd said the charity was recently asked to help a single mother with three kids who needed radiotherapy for brain cancer and in another instance to pay for tradesmen to provide house modifications for a family

with a disabled child.

After participating in the Dunga Derby for the past two years in a car with mates from the Sunshine Coast Masters AFL Club (Rayners), Dr Rudd will this year join a crew made up of a

Shelly’s cancer message

Shelly Rankin at Bloomhill.

Picture: PATRICK WOODS

Imagine you’re 20 years old, fit and healthy. You go to your GP for the 10th time to find out why your cold won’t go away, and after several tests and an X-ray are told you have a disease you’ve never heard of - Hodgkin’s lymphoma.

You’re uneasy because the doctor looks worried, but you don’t know what Hodgkin’s lymphoma is. After the appointment, you Google it.

“Oh f*#k. That’s cancer.”

Shelly Rankin is now 21 and cancer-free. She was diagnosed almost exactly a year ago, at Easter 2021.

Six rounds of chemotherapy and six months later, Shelly’s treatments had been successful, the tumour was gone and she was in remission. Blood tests and other scans have shown

no evidence of the disease. She has six-monthly check-ups and monitors for symptoms, but as far as she knows is cancer-free.

When Shelly found Bloomhill Cancer Care and came to the wellness centre in Buderim, she felt relief that there were people who “just got it”.

At Bloomhill, it was normal to feel the shock she was still in, to experience trauma from the treatments, and feel alienated as she watched her friends go to uni while she felt stuck in mud, taking one step at a time and hoping she would get through.

“What’s helped me is having a community who understand,” Shelly said.

“Even if they’re not your age or your cancer, people get it. You just talk to people and keep in touch, find like-minded people. We’re all a lot more mature than others our age. Nobody else really gets it.”

Bloomhill Cancer Care is launching its Greatest Need Appeal, celebrating 25 years providing personalised support to those touched by cancer.

“We’re delighted to launch our Greatest Need Appeal, which will run throughout the month of April. This month, please join with us as we begin celebrating Bloomhill Cancer Care’s incredible 25-year legacy,” chief executive officer Christopher John said.

“The Greatest Need Fund is for individuals or organisations who want to give, but want their dollars to go toward the most urgent shortfalls, across any area of the organisation, from nurse wages to paying the main operating expenses.

“We are a community-based organisation and receive no ongoing government funding.

Almost 100 per cent of our funding comes from our entrepreneurial endeavours and community donations, which allows us to provide dedicated care services for those touched by cancer.

“Over the past year, we have supported more than 1400 people and provide more than 7120 occasions of nursing, allied health care and wellness activities each year at our wellness centre in Buderim.”

Unitywater offers relief

14 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 8 April, 2022

Unitywater has announced it will offer $50 off water bills for customers whose properties were inundated in the lateFebruary extreme wet weather event.

Unitywater acting chief executive officer Pauline Thomson said the utility empathised with customers who had been impacted.

“We want to support our customers where we can and this rebate will help cover the cost of water used to clean properties,” she said.

“The $50 rebate is equivalent to the volume of water a family of four uses in two weeks, or running a hose for eight hours straight.

“The majority of our staff live in our service region too and we know how upsetting and stressful it can be when you’re affected by these extreme weather events.

“The process of setting up this support takes time and we thank the community for their patience while we’ve been assessing our options to ensure our approach is fair and prudent to all our customers.”

Ms Thomson said impacted property owners should apply for the rebate online. “Customers have until 31 May to apply. Once they submit their application, it will take about 6-8 weeks for us to assess and apply to eligible accounts,” she said.

“Once approved, the rebate will be deducted from the next bill following the 31 May closing date.

“We encourage anyone who may be struggling to pay their bill to contact us as soon as possible so we can work with them – we have payment and hardship plans available to support our customers when times are tough.”

One of the many incredible photographs taken by Betty during World War 2.

Noosa resident Betty Bainbridge has died peacefully in her home at the age of 97.

Elizabeth Bainbridge was enlisted in the Australian Army’s top secret Aerial Reconnaissance.

Betty leaves her legacy

By Abbey Cannan

“Mum and Dad went on to establish a house building business in Sydney and, in 1956, made the move to the Gold Coast and used a large sand dredge to pump sand onto low lying flat land at the bottom of now Cavil Avenue,” Betty’s son Mark said.

“They both have the distinction of developing and building the first strata title apartments in Surfers Paradise with 15 one-bedroom units they called The BOATEL. “Due to its waterfront position, Cavil Avenue is today one of the main streets of Surfers Paradise.”

The family then took a series of moves northwards to eventually end up as early day residents in Noosa in 1978.

“Dad and Mum liked Noosa Sound and settled the family at Key Court where many happy years were had.”

The family continued to live in Noosa, with Betty then spending many years at Noosaville and, of late, at Elysium Estates.

Betty was an inspiration to all who knew her through her desire to continue exploring the world.

With many trips overseas, she particularly loved Bali and its people, fell in love with Venice at the age of 90, and even took a solo buggy trip around the Egyptian Pyramids.

At 92 she went on a cruise to New Zealand to enjoy the Fjords and New Zealand hospitality.

Interestingly, Betty was the daughter of Minnie Horton, the youngest of 10 children of the famous south east Queensland land surveyor Thomas Horton, and great grand daughter of William Horton.

Recorded in the book The Life and Times of William Horton by the historian Max Chapman, William was a 16 year old convict transported to Australia from England on the sailing ship ‘The Planter in 1832.

The Bulls Head Inn built by William Horton in Drayton Toowoomba is now an Australian Heritage Museum and was the site in 1849 for the first public meeting, and became the centre for the separation of the Northern Districts from the Colony of New South Wales, which would shape the destiny of the breakaway colony of Queensland.

A Noosa woman who took a big step forward for women’s rights during one of Australia’s most famous murder mysteries has died peacefully in her home at the age of 97.

“They don’t bury something that keeps moving,” was the motto of Elizabeth Bainbridge, known to her friends and family as Betty.

The Noosa resident for more than 40 years was an avid traveller, impressively touring eight countries at the age of 90.

Growing up in Parramatta Sydney in the 1920s, Betty developed an interest in photography at an early age.

She received training led to her World War II enlistment in the Australian Army in the top secret Aerial Reconnaissance Photo Interpretation Department.

Her role had her identifying the Japanese soldier strength, Bunker Fortifications that had heavy gun locations and Japanese supply lines, which was all vital time sensitive work for our front line troops.

During her time in the army in 1944, she

took a big step forward for women’s rights by being the first woman to appear in a national court in the uniform of the Australian Army.

Betty gave specialist advice on the photos taken during one of Australia’s most famous murder mysteries, The Pyjama Case.

Australian Screen states the body of an unidentified woman found on the side of a road on 1 September 1934 was dubbed Pyjama Girl by the media, in reference to the remnants of the yellow and white exotic silk pyjamas that were found – and thus began one of Australia’s longest and most sensational murder mysteries.

Because of the brutality of the crime, the young age of the victim, and the unusual clothing she was wearing when found, her case captured the imagination of the Australian public.

The war was not all bad for Betty as she found the love of her life in the army, and married Thomas Bainbridge in the Saint Patrick Church in Parramatta in 1946. Betty was blessed with seven children, Peter, Chris, Margaret, Mark, Anthony, Helen, Lisa, and has 10 grandchildren and 11 great grandchildren.

Noosa Shire Council’s Girraween Nature Refuge gets a makeover

Ecologists Liam Pratt and Kate Gregory are enhancing glossy black-cockatoo habitat in Girraween Nature Refuge.

A degraded three-hectare site within the Girraween Nature Refuge is being transformed, courtesy of a more than $500,000 investment by Blue Care.

The five-year project will see more than a thousand glossy black-cockatoo feed trees and other Australian natives planted on the former landfill site, using healthy soil and biota taken from nearby land Blue Care owns at Grasstree Court that is destined for conversion into its Sunrise Beach aged care precinct.

Ecologist Liam Pratt, whose Sunshine Coastbased ecological services company Biodiverse Environmental has been contracted to deliver the land rehabilitation works, said the project would kickstart the process of restoring healthy ecosystem processes to the area.

“Our goal is to create habitat to benefit the glossy black-cockatoo.”

Mr Pratt said he and his team had already started the process of clearing the rehabilitation site of weeds in preparation for planting cockatoo feed trees, and that mature native trees were present and had been retained to provide valuable nesting habitat for local birdlife and cover for new seedlings.

“With 15-year-old trees already in place, it will help us to develop multiple layers of strata that a natural ecosystem would have in place. Over the long-term of the project our goal is to have it functioning as a natural area would.

“We’ll be incorporating permanent nesting boxes and monitoring them as they go up too.”

Mr Pratt’s colleague and fellow ecologist Kate Gregory said birdlife is already plentiful in the area surrounding and on the rehabilitation site.

“We have identified over 25 glossy blackcockatoo feed trees, the Allocasuarina, within very close proximity of the rehab site and on the site and there is evidence of recent feeding behaviours occurring on those trees,” Ms Gregory said, adding she had also heard scarlet honeyeaters, the rufus fantail, the grey fantail, the black cuckoo-shrike, rainbow bee-eaters, and numerous other species calling to one another on the rehab site.

Mr Pratt agrees: “All the birds are already here.

It’s exciting. We’ve got the perfect surrounding habitat, and we’re basically just strengthening it to provide more feed trees for the glossy black-cockatoos.”

Mr Pratt said he and his team are also looking to enhance the site by creating a new water resource for the birds.

“Although there is water in the area we have identified it would be value-adding to incorporate another permanent water source for the cockatoos, provided we can do so safely and Council permits it.”

He said he and his team had also salvaged 172 grasstrees from the aged care development site and that these would soon be replanted in Girraween Nature Refuge, as part of landscaping at Grasstree Court, and at a number of community sites in Noosa.

Ms Gregory said investment in effective weed

management at the beginning of the project is essential to support future planting, and that significant upfront investment in related activities has been made by Blue Care to ensure they will be successful in restoring natural ecosystem processes to the site.

Mr Pratt said the rehabilitation site is an ideal location for offsetting the loss of 56 feed tree resources on the site Blue Care is developing for aged care and retirement living.

“The rehabilitation site is right in the middle of really important habitat and connected to the development site by land dedicated to conservation and National Park that is abundant with glossy black-cockatoo feed trees.

Before it was degraded it was very similar in nature to the development site, with the same dominant species and soil type that is typical of ecosystems in the region.

“With the ability to bring soil over from the site Blue Care is developing that has all the right biota and seed stock, we have the perfect opportunity to enhance this area.”

Following the land restoration maintenance period, the land will be handed back to Noosa Shire Council to be maintained in perpetuity for community benefit.

Bard’s big hearted play

By Abbey Cannan The sixth installation of Little Seed Theatre Company’s annual Shakespeare at the Lake is set to provide plenty of laughs as the talented cast subverts the traditional rules of romance.

Set overlooking the beautiful Lake MacDonald, Bard’s big hearted comedy in partnership with Anywhere Theatre Festival kicks off on Saturday 14 May. The short walk through the gardens falls to a breathtaking view of the lake framed by the spectacular Greco Roman-styled amphitheatre.

Upon a stage, costumed characters play their part in restoring this ancient banter to the modern audience feasting on both performance and goods within their baskets, sipping wine and absorbing the moment.

Little Seed Theatre Company creative director Johanna Wallace said auditions for the annual Shakespeare at the Lake began in February and rehearsals started in March.

“The cast rehearse three times a week

Tilly Wood as Rosalind and Naire MacDonald as Touchstone. and come together for a five-day intensive in April,” she said.

“Little Seed always works hard to create shows that are vibrant, physically interesting with an emphasis on strong storytelling.

Picture: NATHANIEL KNIGHT

“We frequently hear from audience members who have seen Shakespeare productions all over the world and who believe our version to be the funniest and most physically realised they have seen.”

Regular Little Seed audience members will recognise Tilly Wood who plays Rosalind, Callum Johnston who plays Orlando and Jack Millar and Naire MacDonald, who share the role of Touchstone, from previous shows in the amphitheater including: Much Ado About Nothing, Twelfth Night and Wind in the Willows.

Celebrating nature, shifting politics and the absurdities of politics, confusion reigns supreme in this big hearted comedy from the Bard.

Little Seed Theatre Company has been in operation for 13 years and stages six productions each year.

As You Like It - Shakespeare at the Lake: Dates: May 14 - 15, 21 - 22.

Time: 2:30pm Adult: $30, concession: $25, Little Seed Student: $18 (Running time is three hours with intermission) Tickets available now at little-seed.com.au

Go on safari with a Cooroy-based African travel expert Nights in Botswana’s Okavango Delta can be cold, but you’re warm under your blankets in your spacious tent.

You’ve left the window flaps open so that you can drift off to sleep peering through the gauze at the crowding stars which seem to reflect the sparkling water of the delta.

The day was long, scented with wild sage, and deeply satisfying. You spent it in the African bush in an open game-viewing vehicle with a driver/guide so friendly and accommodating that he seems to have stepped straight out of the pages of one of the Ladies

No 1 Detective Agency novels.

You’ve seen lions, leopards, buffalo, cheetah and elephants as well as a vast variety of birds and general game. You’ve lost count of the photos you’ve taken. Somewhere beyond the dying campfire hyenas are whoo-ooping and, further away, a lion is announcing his presence with a series of staccato grunts. It’s comforting, rather than frightening, for it is reassuring to know that wilderness like this still exists in an otherwise frantic world.

This is Ucango on Safari’s annual Highlights of Botswana safari, escorted by Peter

Emery, a Cooroy-based African travel expert.

It’s a nine-night, comfortable adventure including ensuite tents, all meals, wine beer and soft drinks. Eight nights are spent in private campsites accommodating only the eight people in the group – no one else.

The safari begins on 17 June in Maun, Botswana and ends in Livingstone, Zambia on 26 June. The cost is $4995 per person twin share.

Mustering CWA latest Last week the Tewantin-Noosa branch of the Country Women’s Association (CWA) enjoyed a visit from Tourism Noosa chief executive officer Melanie Anderson.

CWA spokesperson and vice-pPresident Leigh McCready said, “We were thrilled to have Melanie speak with us about the challenges the tourism industry has faced over the past two years in Noosa.”

“Only now is Tourism Noosa starting to see the greenshoots of the recovery emerging, although many issues, particularly the reduced number of staff still working in the industry post-Covid and where they are housed, are still current.

“We also heard about the many programs TN is running to support its growing membership (currently 680 members, the largest tourism membership organisation in Australia) and the amount of revenue contributed to the Noosa economy through tourism.

“After our conversation with Melanie, we discussed the newly launched partnership between the Gympie Muster and the Queensland CWA. This year will be the celebration of 40 years of the Gympie Muster. The Muster has chosen the Queensland Country Women’s Association as it’s charity partner for the event.

We look forward to working with the

Students learn value of giving There was no stopping these Noosa District State High School students putting into place the practical component of their Active Volunteering course.

Despite the interruptions to the term, students have regularly helped out in the library, looked after the animals at the agriculture farm, weeded the native bush flower garden bed, helped Sue at the tuckshop, performed recycling tasks for teachers, and helped Chappy Lisa at the Wednesday morning breakfast club.

“These students are all an inspiration in your enthusiasm and commitment made to perform all tasks in such a professional manner,” digital delivery teacher aide Cathy Smith said.

Muster to create some fantastic anniversary events in August.”

Ms McCready invited interested community members to become a member of the Tewantin-Noosa CWA. “We currently have an offer of 15 months for the price of 12 for all new members, costing only $48. Please see how to join at our Facebook page at facebook.com/CWATewantin or by emailing leighmccready@outlook.com”

The Guide The fab four: Amanda Keller, Barry Du Bois, Dr Chris Brown and Miguel Maestre return with season 11 of The Living Room.

PICK OF THE WEEK THE LIVING ROOM 10, Friday, 7.30pm

If the sneak peek of season 11 of The Living Room is anything to go by, the crew are swinging back to the ’60s for a whole lot of fun. But for hosts Amanda Keller, Dr Chris Brown, Miguel Maestre and Barry Du Bois, variety is the spice of life: we don’t expect them to spend long in their psychedelic ’60s getup before another round of dress-ups takes their fancy. One thing fans can expect from this fun and enthusiastic lifestyle series is the return of The Help Desk and heartwarming stories of the team lending a hand to Australian families and communities in need, along with a series on travel for dummies and some pretty special dinner guests to keep everyone on their toes.

Tonight, Miguel embarks on a ‘Crazy Bull Five-Star Tour’ of Melbourne with Chris, who has no idea what he’s in for with the charismatic chef in charge.

Meanwhile, Barry and Amanda help a local soccer club in need of a makeover. It’s reliably fun Friday night fare.

JANET JACKSON Nine, Sunday, 8pm

From her underprivileged childhood to becoming one of the highest-selling artists in music history, this four-part exposé manages to shine new light on Janet Jackson’s (pictured) life.

It was filmed over a five-year period, compiled using home footage, interviews with family and friends – including some of her brothers, mother and fellow musicians, Missy Elliott and Paula Abdul. In this double-episode special, Janet’s early years, including her personal life and career missteps, are put under the magnifying glass.

BRITAIN BY BEACH SBS, Monday, 7.35pm

The beautiful and rugged coastline of Britain has seen more than just ice creams and children’s toes in its long history. While presenter Anita Rani (pictured) is, of course, partial to a sorbet on the sand, she is also keen to reveal the remarkable stories that have taken place on the country’s beaches.

She begins her windswept, salty air pilgrimage in Devon, where she recounts the wartime disaster Exercise Tiger, visits a gorgeous hotel adored by writer Agatha Christie and encounters a haunted village.

THE ROOKIE Seven, Tuesday, 8.30pm

Now that we’re more than halfway through season four of this comfort viewing-style police dramedy, it’s questionable whether we can still call its main protagonist, middle-aged cop John Nolan (Nathan Fillion), a rookie, but this season really has dialled up the drama. In “Heart Beat”, Nolan is confronted with big moments, both personally and professionally when a plane crashes in the city. Then, in “End Game” Officers Chen (Melissa O’Neil) and Bradford (Eric Winter) investigate the murder of a homeless teenager.

Birds of the Amazon talk Peter Odekerken has always admired wildlife and worked with CSIRO Wildlife Research in Canberra when he left school in 1969. However, he worked on rabbits and decided at the ripe old age of 18 to go to Africa to hopefully be involved in working with African animals.

This didn’t eventuate, but he ended up working in civil engineering and has been fortunate to have visited remote areas in many

countries around the world where he pursued his hobby of photography with a special interest in parrots.

Peter has visited the Amazon Basin on three occasions and says, “it is an absolutely incredible natural wonder, having so much to offer for those interested in Neotropical wildlife”.

In September 2019, he specifically visited

Amazonia National Park to see the rare Golden Parakeet which is endangered.

System broken When Government departments, large corporations and general facilities websites don’t work or their contact numbers have an automated voice that ‘press 1,2,3’ etc. doesn’t fit your needs, what are you to then do?

Millions spent on advertising how efficient and dependable they are but truth be told – they’re useless.

Hence, why the world is spinning out. There is a ceiling now walled off so we can’t penetrate their world.

Our country leaders no longer protect and care for their people.

They lead their financial sponsors to the same trough they feed off. Our taxes.

What happened to cleaning up all the plastic in our environment? Where does all the used Covid masks, aprons, boots, gloves etc end up? Just ask Attenborough.

Our family doctor would advise on what to exclude/include from our diet when sick.

In those days it was about vitamins and nutrition. Now it’s about a pill.

Why do we keep building more and more nursing homes on prime vegetation when they can’t even provide enough staff in our current ones? Such developments are the reason for our loss of koalas/wildlife.

We only ever got homework if we were lagging in a subject. Now kids get it every day.

When are they allowed to play once home?

Why are lethal drugs now saturating our streets and youth?

Once, the only communication was a landline. Conversations were clear and precise.

Now we have landline, mobile, fax, email, letterbox, PO box, computers.

Yet our millennials are the loneliest and shallowest communicators since caveman.

Why do women who’ve endured botox or facelifts all end up looking like Daffy Duck?

Must be the same surgeon reared on Disney.

Tried getting a tradesman of late?

Our so-called professionals have led us to ruination. They’ll tell you it’s the system but they do nothing to change it because it’s been built into their system of thinking.

The arrival of all these viruses is the cause and effect of what we’ve done to this planet.

It’s spitting Big Macs back at us.

Until we learn to clean up our own act and removing what isn’t leading us to healthy living, will we breathe again?

Jen Oakley, Noosa

Reality watchers My wife and I have will have been married for 61 years this coming September and can unashamedly admit to watching most if not all of every Australian series of MAFS. Being aware it’s for entertainment and the producers orchestrate all the drama good and bad, we treat it as armchair experts and see often events that remind us of our past experiences and those of people we knew.

To demean the experts who match the couples is not my intention.

But from the start of each blind marriage, the end result and the drama about to happen is an attempt to steal viewers from Channel 10 and their record of the daily soap box, The Bold And Beautiful.

Tonight’s reunion dinner was held in the perfect setting to my weird sense of humour.

Seeing the large chimney stack behind the building its obvious it was a disused crematorium.

Kev Long snapped this shot in Sunshine Beach recently of a rarely sighted Mountain Brushtail Possum or Bobuck spotted from his verandah.

The bobuck, being black and white and much larger, is very different from our commonly-seen ringtail possums, he said. If you have a Lenscape please email to newsdesk@noosatoday.com.au

Focus on waste Could we please move on from the silliness of man-made climate change and 0.04 per cent atmospheric CO2?

Let’s not think about the might and moods and motions of our sun and planets. Even the galaxy in which we rotate and spin and the effect of it all on our tiny beautiful rock.

Let’s just switch on at 6 or 7pm and be told what to think and believe.

Could we, for a change, give a little consideration to the little discussed subject of the pollution of our beautiful home. Not just every day plastics and chemicals which alone are bringing in billions for the big boys. But the increasing amounts of non biodegradable synthetics all of which, will one day, be thoughtlessly thrown to smother our mother earth.

We are told that in the near future we will be transiting into electric cars for a cleaner, greener earth. Many of the components of cars we now drive are made of non biodegradable synthetic materials. Where will they go?

The same applies to the millions of solar panels (which only produce energy when the sun shines) Oh I know about the marvellous storage batteries. What are they made of and what is their life span?

And wind turbines (which only produce energy when the wind blows. And at a certain velocity).

What are they made of and what is their life span? What happens to the billions of tons of synthetic components when the turbines need replacement?

Then we might consider the thousands of satellites which have been launched not so far above our heads, all with limited use span before they fall to Earth and need replacement.

Does anyone know the damage also being

done to the stratosphere; our protection from the sun? Of course the same applies to our choking of our mother with synthetic clothes and building materials not to mention weaponry for war. And all this has happened in less than the last 100 years. No, the CO2 distraction is not our main problem.

Elizabeth Cameron, Tewantin

Climate response I was intrigued that your correspondent Richard Deane (NT 25/03/22) feels forced to endure my “banging on” about climate change but then asks six questions that encourage me to bang on some more. He is mistaken about me being vociferous, as my comments are in writing. I am hesitant to oblige his request, only because he prefaced the questions by calling my comments “ideological currency of evidence-free opinions that are noisily (once again, in writing. Can’t be noisy) proclaimed to have majority consensus”. Very articulate, that. I even enjoyed the flow of it, but it’s not encouraging, Richard.

It is worrying that this paper may be his only source of information. Why, otherwise, would he ask me, when there is an online universe full of expert opinion that would answer his questions many times over? I am willing to reply to Mr Deane only because some others may really want to know. Don’t believe anything I say before you confirm it with the CSIRO, NASA, NOAA, University of Queensland, the Australian Academy of Science or any other sciencebiased source. There is only room to answer his first question. I will try to answer the others later.

CO2 accounts for about .041 percent of the Earth’s atmosphere. Seventy years ago, CO2 accounted for .03 percent, the highest it had

been in the last 800,000 years (For comparison, hHomo sapiens only began to evolve about 300,000 years ago). The 30 per cent increase in CO2 concentration in that time is entirely due to the burning of fossil fuels (gas, oil, coal). All CO2 molecules absorb the energy of infrared light and re-radiate it. So, collectively, CO2 is doing this more than 30 per cent better than it did 70 years ago. The extra 30 per cent can be identified as coming from ancient carbon by a mass spectrometer differentiating the isotopes of CO2.

On The Soapbox Ingrid Jackson

Integrated plan needed The devastating flooding in Southeast Queensland and NSW has tangibly raised awareness of the impacts of extreme weather events, just as the 2019 bushfires did.

There are scientific forecasts that such extreme weather events will happen more frequently as the climate warms and changes, in part due to controllable emissions and, in part, due the downward spiral caused for instance by the emissions of those very fires and further melting of icebergs and glaciers, raising sea levels and changing ocean currents and weather systems.

Governments need to take steps to prepare communities for increasing numbers of extreme weather events.

Acting NSW Premier Paul Toole has announced an independent inquiry into the recent disaster, including reporting on “current and future land use planning and management and building standards in flood prone locations across NSW”.

But more is needed than just changing land use embedded in planning schemes.

There is an urgent need to plan for climate change adaptation. This must be about putting in place policies, action plans and infrastructure to deal with the range of ways properties and people’s lives are likely to be effected in the future, and how this can be addressed in advance, not just waiting for disaster to strike.

Homes, commercial properties, farms, public buildings and infrastructure will need protection and/or upgrade to be ready for extreme impacts. And there needs to be transition planning to reinforce and protect structures and/or to shift dwellings and buildings to safer ground, as flood prone, erosion-prone and fire hazard localities begin to come too frequently under threat or become uninhabitable.

There is already - and will no doubt be more in the future – a need to construct social housing as well as transition housing, to cater for

people whose homes are fatally damaged.

As well, like the Queensland government has already begun to do, governments will need to step in with buy-back funding schemes, so people can sell homes and move/ rebuild in a safer location.

Noosa Shire Council has gone a long way in mapping flood-prone, inundation-prone, coastal erosion-prone and bushfire-hazard land. But Noosa’s land use planning is not yet fully integrated with holistic adaptation planning.

So far, the focus in Noosa has tended to be along the lines of the previous council’s unsuccessful attempts to stop people from adding to or replacing their already existing homes, an approach which is negative rather than supportive, and does little for future-proofing the whole community and transitioning to living in a less amenable climate.

A holistic integrated planned approach is required.

Ingrid Jackson, former Noosa councillor.

You may have noticed how different society is today A reoccurring thought that quite frankly keeps me up at night is, have we noticed how different society is today?

If you don’t have a box of masks in the glove box and three in your bag and one in the wash, then who the hell are you? Not to mention you’ll have booster shots one, two, three and four on record ready to be whipped out at any time you get blocked up by a sorry waitress.

You also want to be sure your phone isn’t supposedly flat, otherwise you might be a suspect unvaxxed, the new age troublemakers, menaces and conspiracy theorists out to wreak havoc and break down the fabric of our society.

Who would have thought Covid-19 could have uncovered this rebellion of people.

All it took was a virus which we can all agree has a lot to answer for. The unvaxxed come from all walks of life truckies, teachers, artists, musicians, athletes, doctors (albeit now deregistered), checkout chicks, miners, and a few of your local waywards. They seem like ordinary people but don’t be fooled, being unvaxxed means they know something you don’t

Noosa journalist Charlley McQuade-Hall offers a young perspective on life since Covid. or quite the opposite, you or whoever, perhaps the neighbour, knows something they don’t.

Information that goes against the flow of social media’s narrative will be considered by authorities as misinformed, though a notice on your phone will set us on the straight and narrow if we ever steer in the wrong direction.

I suppose no one wants to end up in Facebook jail for voicing their opinion. A platform that functions and exists for freedom of speech

has also changed. Twisty, twirly kind of society, don’t you think?

So, you may think, well, why make such a kerfuffle about it?

Well John, I’ll tell you, your dress code has changed, your social life, your work life, your family’s holiday plans, and probably your attitude towards people and politics.

Society has been through a few unpleasantries that you and the person closest to you have seen, felt, and heard about. Fear and confusion have clouded and also regulated a lot of thoughts and ideas.

You might have been the one to be updated on every Covid case, chasing down news and victims, or the opposite, you might have had your head in the sand to put distance between you and the chaos.

Yet others found themselves rallying for, dare we utter it, freedom, wanting their fellow Aussies to hear them.

So, let’s reflect, and empathise because that’s the only thing left to do. Although not too much empathy for those who sew, breed dachshunds, and have a newfound love for

photography because we see you and how well you’ve done during the pandemic with your social media platforms booming with good business.

For old times’ sake let’s start by doing what we do best, cheering on the underdog, holding up the downtrodden. Thank the producers for trying to provide for us, even though we took a ute load more toilet rolls than we needed.

Thank those that have been supporting others when they struggle to support themselves.

Pray for those who have lost loved ones. Send love to the parents that continue to protect their children from doom and gloom-filled media, and who fight for their children’s childhood.

Thank everyone for doing the best they can.

We are Australian and we are united by one voice - you are, we are, we are Australian. Our catchphrase that we have fought for, died for, and thrived for. Why cast freedom off when it’s the one thing that keeps us strong.

Our society has changed, you may have noticed, and it’s time to be Australian again, whether you’re vaxxed, unvaxxed or other.

Fairwell Mr Haffman (M): Based on a multiaward winning play, the gripping new historical drama from writer/director Fred Cavaye depicts a Faustian pact made between a Jewish jeweller and his apprentice in 1941 Occupied Paris, one that will forever change them. Our closing night film.

When: Sunday 24 April from 2.30pm and Wednesday 4 May from 7pm.

Little Nicholas’ Treasure (PG): As fun-loving as its namesake, Little Nicholas’ Treasure captures the magic of childhood and the values of both family and true friendship. With an allstar ensemble cast including Gregory Gadebois (Delicious), Jean-Pierre Darroussin and Noemie Lvovsky, this wildly entertaining film will strike a chord with audiences young and old.

When: Wednesday 13 April from 7pm and Sunday 1 May from 2.30pm.

Maigret (M): The legendary Gerard Depardieu plays Georges Simenon’s beloved police inspector - charged with uncovering the truth around the death of an unidentified young

Dog days at The Summit

By Phil Jarratt After enjoying sunset cocktails and the 360 degree view from former Noosan Chris de Aboitiz’s private residence at the very apex of The Summit 1770, we walked back down a tier to the beautifully-appointed Dingo Den, one of three Summit Cottages, a little apprehensive about the prospect of sleep for the night ahead.

As we had toasted our good fortune to be watching Agnes Water turn to gold from mountains to sea in the last light of day, the owners and staff of Rococo Bar and Restaurant on Hastings Street were setting up for the mother of all night-long parties, a celebration of the end of Covid (maybe), the end of the summer holiday season and the sale of the business. While we drank, a cocktail bar, dance floor and lighting system went up on the grass around us as 30 or so elegantly-dressed revellers made ready to rave.

The Summit is a bit like this: you have to expect the unexpected, whether it’s an impromptu dog whispering exhibition from Chris or an all-night rave. But to be honest even the bass notes shaking our cottage didn’t keep me awake for long, and when a torrential downpour forced the party indoors, the night was silent again.

Although we are regular visitors to the Discovery Coast, this was only the second time we had stayed at The Summit Cottages since they were built three years ago, and much has changed since then.

In 2019 I wrote: “To be honest, we were imposters at The Summit 1770. We tried to hide it from fellow guests at this stunning hilltop accommodation, but it didn’t take long for them to notice that in the matter of man’s best

Campsite at the Eco-Park. friend, we were seriously canine-deficient.

It was a nice twist, being on the outer for not bringing your dog to an upmarket boutique resort, but owner Chris de Aboitiz insisted that four-legged friends were optional. After a few days spent at The Summit, I can honestly say that one of the great pleasures of being there was seeing so many dogs having an actual holiday – not just waiting around while their owners had one!

Pictures: SUPPLIED “While hardly unique, the concept of dogfriendly accommodation has taken on new meaning under Chris, the former world tandem surfing champion and one of the leading all-round watermen in the world, who has perhaps become best known in recent years for his dog-surfing exploits, seen at events like the Noosa Festival of Surfing, and on numerous hugely-viewed clips on social media. Chris has managed to combine his passions for the surfing sports with his love of dogs by teaching

them to surf with him, and in so doing, he has singlehandedly created a booming surf-dog culture around the world.

“But while teaching dogs to feel comfortable on an ocean wave, Chris discovered that he also possessed an extraordinary ability to teach dogs a broad range of behavioural patterns and skills. In addition to first-rate accommodation and a wilderness experience close to the pleasures of the town, this is what he offers at The Summit.”

And then along came Covid. Throughout 2020 and 2021, stripped of their ability to leave the state, Queenslanders started ticking off more localised items on the bucket list, and somewhat remote and achingly beautiful Agnes/1770 figured high on those lists. Overnight every campground in town was overflowing, so Chris acted quickly to add a dog-friendly family eco-park at the front of the 40-acre property, offering 10 spacious powered sites with concrete slab, 240-watt power and rain water tap connections. There are also five unpowered, grassed sites suitable for tents or self-sufficient rigs.

Chris has also built a well-appointed amenities block, with a communal kitchen, outdoor dining area and a fire pit for those yearround sunset drinks and nibbles with friends, as well as a couple of funky accommodation options, including a beautifully repurposed school bus.

We loved our stay in the Dingo Den, less than five minutes from town and the beach and yet in a world of its own, perfect for bush walks (dog or no dog) or the simple pleasure of rising early and watching the sunrise over Bustard Bay.

Slow Food keeps growing

By Erle Levey It was a chance for foodies to get together and celebrate the goodness grown in Noosa and surrounding regions.

The Slow Food Noosa Snail of Approval Awards Night held at View by Matt Golinski in Noosa Heads was a great success.

Producers, suppliers, restaurant and bar operators, food lovers and supporters enjoyed the chance to rub shoulders after so many interruptions over the past two years due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

A local producers’ expo started the evening, held in Matt Golinski’s View restaurant at Peppers Noosa Resort.

Honey, beef, lime, mushroom and macadamia producers were among those passing on information, together with Noosa Landcare members who have been working harder than ever through floods and Covid.

The Snail of Approval Awards included accreditation to producers who had been approved for their clean, green and fair approach to their operations, whether it be growing or serving foods.

Slow Food started in Italy in 1986, with a demonstration to say no’ to having a McDonald’s outlet in Rome next to the famed Spanish Steps.

It was a defining line against the fast food industry.

Ratified three years later in Paris, the movement is now celebrated in 150 countries.

Australia is very supportive of small-scale primary producers to have a future, rather than just large-scale farming.

To be entitled to a Snail of Approval, restaurants, cafes, food stores and farmers are audited to test they are doing all the right things - to be good, clean and fair.

Good for the environment, fair for the farmers, fair for the workers, and with an emphasis on local.

Slow Food Noosa president Jason Lewis said last week’s event highlighted the success of Slow Food.

“We have gone full circle on nights like this. It has combined the producers that grow things, with the local chefs who welcome and value local produce to serve.

“It was fantastic to see so many producers there to enjoy the event.

“The real essence of it is, having grown up as a primary producer, to see so many outlets now proudly saying on their menus where the food comes from.’’

This was highlighted when View consultant executive chef Matt Golinski presented a full menu of dishes prepared basically from locally-produced food.

A highlight of the evening was the presentation of $25,000 in grants by Noosa District Landcare for projects to revegetate property and revitalise it for production.

Landcare’s Ilana Kelly said the grants were for Snail of Approval members nominated for improving native vegetation, nutrient management, erosion control and remediation, soil health, water management, pasture and grazing management.

“The land and how we manage it, is how we build a strong community, and a healthy

lifestyle,’’ Ilana said.

“We build strong communities by investing in local food and how we grow that food.’’

Grants went to Eastwell Farm at Kin Kin, K2 Beef at Kandanga, Bunya Grove at Amamoor, and Petersen’s Farm at Woolooga, for projects involving vegetation, plantings, soil health and farm management.

For chef Matt Golinski, it was a real pleasure to include as many local producers as possible onto the menu.

“Even [after] more than 30 years in the industry, I still get excited when produce comes in like this,’’ he said.

Discussions are now underway about staging another Slow Food Noosa restaurant event

over the next few months.

Then on June 18-19, CC’S Kitchen at Woolooga will hold their annual Big Rosella Field Day. Slow Food Noosa will be supporting this event that is to be highlighted by the opening CC’s newly built facility and commercial kitchen.

Happy holidays for fishing Well, here we all are and welcome to April.

With the school holidays now in swing, you can expect things to be a little busier at the boat ramps and around the town. This should only get you up and about earlier as we have some great weather coming to start the week off.

This is a great time of year to get out as we start to see big snapper moving in and the longtail tuna becoming increasingly active.

For those wanting to target Spanish mackerel then these are also still in good numbers once you find them.

Offshore, all the local reefs will start to see cleaner waters making bottom bashing worthwhile. Good numbers of sweetlip have been reported with some fish reaching 50cm.

These fish can be caught using high quality braids and FC leader like Shimano Ocea around 20lb. Using medium 5-10kg spin rods like the Shimano Raider snapper and a 5000 reel will serve as a great all rounder capable of many different angling styles.

While you are out there, if conditions allow a small flow of burly will really help fire up the reef fish and can even bring on the mackerel. Spanish and spotty mackerel love a burly trail so make sure you have your floated gang hooked pilchards out there. Snapper will also smash these as will tuna and cobia making this a must do method. If getting snipped off, try one of the premade Halco bait trace rigs.

This features a short length of wire crimped to a swivel to help you land that big fish.

Surf fishing continues to surprise anglers with the occasional sweetlip and snapper turning up. For those on heavier gear or wanting a challenge there are large shovel nose sharks/rays around. These fish will exceed 6080kgs making them a powerful sport fish. Ensuring you have a solid reel like the long cast 7500 from Penn and a rod with some serious backbone is a must. These rays will put in big runs and certainly test you angling ability not to mention they can get massive. Ask us how to target one if you like a challenge.

River fishing is getting better and the lead up to the new moon some great flathead and jack captures. In the mix are a good numbers of golden trevally and big eye trevally. To target jacks and sizable bream you only need to use mullet on a beak style hook and 8-12lb leader for bream and anything up to and over 50lb for jacks depending on where you target them. For those fishing around rocks with braid for jacks don’t be afraid to use up to 4 meters or more of leader. This won’t cast particularly well but it could certainly save you from getting bust off with traditional leader lengths.

As we see things start to clean up the waters further up stream will once again start

Jacob Bartley got this Diamond Trevally from the Maroochy river on a soft plastic prawn profile. to fish well and the spring tides this week certainly helped with that. There will also be more bait inside the river so if your luck is not that good upriver try scanning around Weyba Bridge, Noosa Sound and the dog beach.

These areas will hold good flathead, whiting and trevally to name a few. You can use unweighted baits like whitebait, peeled prawn, and beach worm which all of these fish love.

Freshwaters are starting to settle down following the torrential flooding. The bass are starting to feed again but can be hard to find.

With the dams open and the sun shining, now is a great time to get out an explore. Don’t forget you need a SIPS permit to fish most dams and lakes and these can be purchased online

SPORT

Pin High Peter Owen

Kelvin’s golf gets better every year Golf must seem a pretty tame pastime for a man who was once considered one of Australia’s most fearless motor bike drag racers.

But Cooroy’s Kelvin Brittain, born in Kin Kin and a Sunshine Coast resident all his life, says you need equal amounts of focus and concentration to succeed at either sport.

And Kelvin’s in a position to know.

For more than 15 years, he competed on his Suzuki at drag racing circuits across the country and in the early 2000s once took out top honours at the Winternationals at Willowbank, near Ipswich.

Now 61 and recently retired from his role as a maintenance turner and fitter at Pomona’s Page Furnishers, Kelvin focuses more on sinking putts these days than on keeping his bike upright at high speeds.

He’s been a member of Cooroy for 28 years, but it’s only in the past seven or eight that he’s played much golf.

And recently he’s hit a patch of red hot form.

A fortnight ago, playing in the Wednesday veterans competition, Kelvin tallied 41 stableford points to win the A grade trophy. And last week he shot a net 67 to win the A grade stroke event.

He humbly puts it down to having lowered his expectations, and not trying too hard on the golf course.

“I used to practice hard on Fridays, but found it raised my expectations for next day – and that didn’t work because I lack the ability to live up to those expectations,” Kelvin said.

He’s being too modest. At an age when most golfers’ handicaps are heading north, Kelvin finds himself playing off eight – the lowest handicap he’s ever earned.

Kelvin plays regularly with the vets on Wednesdays, and enjoys taking on all comers in the Saturday comp.

One of his regular playing partners is Cyril Trist, Cooroy’s junior golf coordinator and teaching professional, who he says will often supply him with advice on how to keep his game on track.

“He’s very passionate about the game and I enjoy playing with him,” Kelvin said.

Cassie takes a well-earned break When Cassie Porter takes a break, she really means it.

After 10 weeks of non-stop golf on the WPGA circuit in Queensland, Victoria and NSW, the Peregian star looked forward to six weeks off before her next tournament – the Australian Women’s Classic at Bonville, near Coffs Harbour.

And for the first fortnight she didn’t touch a golf club.

Porter, 19, spent a week in Brisbane with her trainer, and the rest of the time catching up with family and friends at her Peregian Springs home.

She said she had been surprised and delighted with her form since turning professional late last year.

“My performances have far outweighed my expectations,” she said.

“I was just hoping to make cuts in most of the tournaments, and I was so thrilled and grateful for the chance to be playing.”

She did much more than make cuts.

Following a debut 10th in the WPGA Championship at Royal Queensland in mid-January, Porter reeled off five more top 10 finishes in her next six tournaments to rocket up the world rankings.

Her next two tournaments – the Bonville event, which begins on April 21, and the Women’s NSW Open at Coolangatta-Tweed Heads the following week – will be crucial for the young star as she considers her schedule for

Soldier drill gets you firing well TAKE THE TIP PETER HEINIGER Are you a golfer who has excessive hip slide in your backswing that turns into a reverse pivot?

If so, you probably experience a lot of inconsistency with your ball striking.

You may hit the ground well behind the ball or strike the top of the ball.

That can be easily fixed with probably the oldest drill ever known.

The soldier drill is where both feet stay together while you swing. It’s very effective in highlighting the correct and incorrect turn in the backswing.

You should be able to swing into the top of your backswing position without losing balance. Of course, if done incorrectly, you will lose your balance.

The drill can be done with or without a ball.

Simply apply the same sensation of the different turning motion when hitting the ball with your feet apart. This drill has passed the test of time and can be used by any level of golfer to improve both the full swing action as well as the pitching action.

Cassie Porter’s great form has been one of the highlights of this year’s WPGA Tour. the rest of the year.

With the WPGA Tour coming to an end, and with Porter having no status on any other tour, any ranking points she collects at Bonville and Tweed Heads will be important in her gaining starts overseas.

Whatever happens, Porter’s ambition is to play her way onto the LPGA Tour in the United States just as quickly as she can.

Maddy in the mix in junior event Noosa’s Maddison Kelly found the conditions tough in the JGQ Two-Day Easter Classic at Wynnum this week, but her first round 84 saw her in 11th spot at the half-way mark of a tournament which is a qualifier for the Greg Norman Junior Masters.

Maddy, who has lowered her handicap to an impressive 1.4, is one of several Sunshine Coast girls taking part in the event.

Maroochy River’s Ionna Muir shared the first-round lead on three-over-par 75.

In the boys’ section, Noosa’s Eli Cookman shot a first round 79, well back in gross competition but a handy seventh in net standings at the half-way mark.

Charity Swim looks to golf The Sunshine Coast’s Island Charity Swim – the iconic ocean swim that has raised more than $1 million for Sunshine Coast special schools since it began 20 years ago – has added a golf event to its annual schedule.

The Island Charity Swim Golf Day has been scheduled for Friday 6 May – the day before this year’s swim - at the iconic Palmer Coolum golf course at Yaroomba, scene of 11 Australian PGA Championships between 2002 and 2012.

The charity event is an 18-hole four-person Ambrose competition, with an 11am shotgun start. Prizes worth $4000 will be on offer and the cost of $110 per player includes a sausage sizzle.

Players can register by emailing their details to islandcharityswimgolfday@gmail.com Sponsorships of holes can be arranged by contacting Pat Burns on 0400 944 453.

Consistent Tooman contends in SA Veteran Noosa pro Simon Tooman played solid rounds of 72 and 69 to finish in the top 10 at a Legends Tour pro-am hosted by the Stirling Golf Club in South Australia late last week.

Tooman, who is following the tour as it makes its way through South Australia, finished tied eighth – eight strokes behind the winner, Peter Senior.

Fellow Noosa pro Mark Tickle was 27th after rounds of 73 and 73 in the 36-hole event.

NOOSA AFC TIGER TALK 202103085735_1-SG12-21

Pressure on all games was immense on the weekend.

Tiger faithful proud and happy with weekend games.

Season start near perfect

By Julian Pitts Well it was almost the perfect start for the Roccoco Noosa Tigers on the Goldy last weekend with the colts winning a thriller, the ressies winning a classic game of reserve grade footy and our seniors going down in a closely fought battle by three goals.

To be honest, even barring our seniors getting beaten, it was just a great day at the footy with a heap of the Noosa contingent making their way to Broadbeach. A terrific set up and their hospitality was spot on!

As I have mentioned many times over the journey, the performance of our senior team is what we are judged by, and all the Tiger faithfull were pretty proud and happy with what they saw on Saturday. Only for a lapse late in the game were the spoils taken away from the newly formed Noosa side against the defending premiers. The pressure all game was immense, played at a frantic pace with many a contested stoppage. Never once did the Tigers look out of their depth, unlike in 2021, when Broadbeach belted Noosa at home by 18 goals.

Big key forwards Freeman and Bussey looked damaging at times, booting three apiece, while small forwards O’Dwyer and Johnston were forever dangerous and impacted with two goals apiece.

This game should not be missed and I’m certain a huge Noosa crowd will be in attendance to see the much improved Tigers under heralded head coach Chris Rourke back in their home town.

Judo state championships in Noosa The Noosa community is being encouraged to cheer on competitors at the Judo Queensland Championships in Noosa.

The matches will take place at the Noosa Leisure Centre on Saturday 9 and 10 April from 9.30am.

This will be the first time a judo state championship has been held on the Sunshine Coast with more than 200 entrants from across Queensland, many of who will compete in national titles and beyond.

Judo is an inclusive martial art that has been included in every Olympics since 1972, with female categories introduced in 1988.

The sport revolves around throwing or

grappling an opponent, usually in spectacular fashion, to the ground and also involves pinning the opponent to the ground or submitting them by strangles or joint locks.

Judo Queensland state administrator Daniel Bazzana said the state championships should be an exciting day of action and a great event with all ages including veterans and no limits athletes competing. There are also special events such as the City vs Country teams’ competition and Kata (choreographed pattern of movements and throws).

Competition doors open at 8am.

Dolphins down in opener Fierce was how coach Matt Buckland described the Ray White Noosa Dolphins’ last minute loss to Maroochydore on Saturday with both sides starting the match with intent and conviction.

“With a starting team of so many new faces, it was pleasing to see the commitment and defensive approach for the full 80 minutes,“ Buckland said.

“We spoke before the game about our focus being on effort, and the boys produced that in spades.“ The match was a seesawing battle with the Ray White Dolphins getting away to a great start, pinning the much bigger and experienced opposition inside their own half for the opening 20 minutes. That pressure resulted in a 17th minute try from a lineout to prop Tyler Searle for the Dolphins to take a 5-0 lead.

The Swans responded well though and after relentlessly attacking the Noosa line, broke through for a score equalling try five minutes later. The teams went onto half time with Maroochydore adding a penalty to take an 8-5 lead.

The Swans hit back quickly after half time taking advantage of two quick penalty taps to post another five-pointer, the 13-5 score remaining for another 20 minutes before the Dolphins mercurial Jay Moffat stepped his way for a converted try. Another penalty conversion by Noosa took them to a late 15-13 lead.

However, a red card to the Dolphins full back in the dying seconds presented too good an opportunity for the Swans who converted the penalty to snatch victory from defeat 1615.

Reserve grade saw the Ray White Dolphins take control from the outset, ending with a comprehensive 38-0 result.

A night time rescue in progress.

Treacherous forestry roads still closed after floods Following substantial rainfall in February and March, all plantation forests in SEQ remain closed to allow conditions to dry out and road repairs to be undertaken safely.

This includes plantation forests in the vicinity of the Mary Valley, the Fraser Coast and the Glasshouse Mountains which are all closed to the public.

Despite that, there have been a number of drivers disobeying closure signs and finding out the hard way what a very bad idea that was.

HQPlantations is appealing to all recreation users to respect these closures so that safe and responsible access to the plantations can be restored as soon as possible.

Plantation forest closures fall under the Forestry Act 1959 and can be enforced by police, QPWS rangers and plantation officers.

Fines for non-compliance currently range from $276 to almost $1400.

People are reminded that driving through mud on plantations roads at any time is also unlawful and penalties apply.

State and local government-managed roads through plantations remain open unless otherwise indicated by road signage or police.

People are advised to refer to the Parks and Forests website parks.des.qld.gov.au for restrictions in relation to campgrounds managed by Queensland Parks and Wildlife

Service in this area.

For a map showing the full extent of closures, please visit the closure page.

Damage to the road network has been extensive and repairs are underway, however, continued rainfall has delayed progress. Reopening is weather dependent so the following dates are a guide only, weather permitting.

Plantation districts that will remain closed until at least 8 April 2022: Fraser Coast South (includes Toolara, Ringtail and others).

Beerburrum (includes Glasshouse Mountains and everything between Landsborough and Ningi).

Fraser Coast North (includes Elliott River, Tuan, Wongi).

Plantation districts that will remain closed for at least two months (end May 2022): Mary Valley (includes Amamoor, Imbil, Jimna and others).

Passchendaele.

The status of the closures will be updated on HQPlantations website at hqplantations. com.au/closures Enquiries can be directed to information@hqplantations.com.au or the nearest HQPlantations office, phone numbers are available on the website or by calling head office on 3882 8240.

Off road adventures boom

By Margie Maccoll Covid has been a boon for the caravan and camping industry.

With international and sometimes domestic travel restricted, people of all ages have taken to the road to explore more of their own backyard. And with housing shortages, caravans are becoming a more popular long-term option.

And off-road and off-grid was what camping and caravanning holiday makers have been increasingly demanding, exhibitors and visitors to the Nambour Expo: Camping, Caravanning told Noosa Today over the weekend.

Expo spokesman Bob Carroll said people were looking for sophisticated equipment to give them independence with solar power, battery packs as well as creature comforts and the industry continued to develop equipment to meet the demand.

Nigel Brealey of Lawrence RVs said their range of Lumberjack camper trailers was increasing in popularity, being a lower cost, off-road option that could be pulled with a smaller 4WD, was easy to set up and was selfcontained.

“People want to roll up with no set up time,“ he said.

South Australian family business operators Maverick campers brought along their Viper range of hybrid vans which are fully off-grid with solar panels to power a fridge, electives and ensuite provide “luxury inside, rugged outside“.

“We get people who want to travel around Australia and go off-road. They can drive along the beach and camp on the beach and for long-term living, there’s lots of storage,“ brothers Bailey and Ethan Winen said.

RACQ spokesman Simon McClelland said lithium batteries were becoming the musthave item for solar powered campers.

More expensive at about $1500 than a standard $400 battery, it was worth the extra cost due to its fast charging ability, light weight and ability to use up to 80 per cent capacity, he said.

The lithium battery can enable campers to run their vans for about three days and can be recharged by solar panels within a couple of hours, he said.

For those wanting to take the family away with all the luxuries of home, the 3.5 tonne Wonderland RV, at about $118,500, delivers a queen bed, four bunk beds, kitchen, dining area, bathroom and washing machine. Still an off-road van, it would require a powerful 4WD for towing.

Pirates launch season ‘22 On Wednesday evening of last week in the Heads of Noosa Brewery Taproom, some 70plus guests assembled to celebrate the official launching of the 2022 Noosa Pirates Rugby League Season.

In what Pirates’ marketing manager Deb Gillard described as a very successful evening, supporters from all areas of the club were in attendance. Sponsors, officials, committee members, coaching panel and players from the various grades, both men and women, all proudly wearing their official club polo shirts were there to show their support for the season ahead.

Premier aponsor, Always Cool, was acknowledged by Pirates, who also extendws their heartful thanks and gratitude to all other sponsors.

With several trial games already underway, and the selection of teams starting to consolidate, all involved are eagerly looking forward to the season ahead.

In his words of welcome, club president Paul Dwyer first of all welcomed all in attendance and thanked them for standing strong in what have been a very turbulent 2021 season.

“In particular as president, I would like to acknowledge our sponsors. No matter how big or small your contribution may be, your involvement is of the utmost importance.

Without you, our future would no doubt be in jeopardy,” he said.

“Now that our two clubs, the juniors and the seniors, are united as one, we have teams starting from U/6s right through to our A grade. With trial games under way and head coach Brett Winkler and his coaching staff in place, all this puts us in good stead.

“The major community project in which we are involved is still in progress and this is, of course, very important to our club. At present all aspects of our club life are indeed looking very positive.

“As your president, I consider that one of my most important goals is to ensure that all of you understand that this season. Regarding management, the big word is approachable: friendly and easy to talk to, we are there for you and the betterment of the club.”

In his speech to the guests, head coach Winkler said: “I would also like to add my thanks to our sponsors. Your role in our club is vital and thank you for the way you stood by us last season.

“At present I am happy the way things are going. We are having a good attendance at training and all our coaches are getting things settled with their teams.

“We have picked up more new players and this is good for the future of our club. Also, I would like to point out that a good solid structure within the reserve grade ranks is critical as this is always the major back up for the A grade squad.

“Trial games have been underway and this gives us a good look at exactly where we stand and what is required for the season ahead.

For us, our first competition game will be this Saturday against Maroochydore at Maroochydore.

“A big welcome to our ladies’ teams and,” he added, which drew a loud laugh from the guests, “I love coaching them because they always listen to what I say. Once again thank you to our sponsors and supporters.”

The speeches finished then Liam Anlezark, marketing and sponsors coordinator, bought forward a couple of young players who modelled the newly designed club T shirts, brightly coloured and noting the names of club sponsors.

It was definitely an evening that was enjoyed by all.

Rugby league As stated at their launch, Pirates played their first competitive game of the season Saturday afternoon in Maroochydore and as stated by coach Brett Winkler their first up was tough.

Despite being dwarfed by a huge forward

Pirates mark the launch at Heads of Noosa.

A good night to launch the season.

Thumbs up to the launch. pack and giving their all-in defence Pirates finished in a 34-34 draw.

“As usual in the first game of the season there was quite a few errors, but the boys kept fighting in a seesaw match that was very entertaining to watch,” Winkler said.

“Many teams won’t get any points against Maroochydore this season but we will take that one point.

“However, we will be looking forward to a much improved performance this week against Beerwah” Surf sports With our Australian surf lifesaving championships now well and truly underway, a lot of our supporters will be watching with interest the performance of our local girl Lana Rogers.

Bring on the season.

Pirates celebrate with players and supporters.

Despite now competing for Alexander Headlands, she is still a Noosa girl and we wish her and coach Sharlene Kelly every success.

For Sharlene, a former Australian kayak team member, is still competing and will represent Noosa in the masters.

“My program will keep me busy as I have entered for several ski team events, double ski, ski relay and the Taplin relay. When this is over it’s back to my coaching duties with Lana so it is going to be full on.”

News just to hand tells us that in the Board Riding Championships, the Open Female Longboard gold medal was won by Kirra Molnar of Noosa.

In the restricted categories 30-39 division, Male Shortboard, Noosa’s Jack Lewis won bronze, and in the 50-59 division Female

Shortboard, Alison Pegg won silver.

The 50-54 Male Board race saw Darren Mercer, Noosa’s head coach and former National Iron Man Champion win bronze.

With Noosa’s Masters team being one of the biggest entered in the titles their results are just too numerous to mention. Therefore, it is only right that we acknowledge their coaching panel and say well done to all.

We wish the Golden Oldies of Noosa the very best.

In a well-balanced club, the role of the Masters can be of the utmost importance, for their presence amongst the young ones on their way up, can be a great source of advice and encouragement, two major factors on the road to success.

Life of Brine Phil Jarratt - philjarratt.com

Surf scribe leaves beach For a guy who hadn’t actually surfed for many years, Stuart Scott maintained the stoke throughout an adventurous, creative life that ended too soon last week.

Born in Sydney but raised on Hastings Street, Noosa – and how many people can claim that! – Stu was not quite six years old when his parents rolled into town in 1956, seeking a new life in the sun. In fact, the manner of the family’s arrival in a VW Microbus (the forerunner of the Kombi) set the tone for a life that was just beginning.

In the driveway, a “van that rocked”, right out front a series of perfect point breaks where he could start “surfing the ‘60s”. Both concepts would become best-selling books for Stu in later life.

Stuart Scott started surfing in 1963, at the start of the golden era of Malibu boards, and just after transferring from Tewantin Public to Cooroy State High. He fell in love not just with the act of riding waves but the whole ethos and culture, alongside an equally unstoppable passion for motor vehicles, ranging from slick Ferraris to rust-bucket panel vans with a mattress in the back.

After studies at the University of Queensland, he became a journalist in Brisbane, eventually becoming chief motoring writer for the Sunday Mail, a position he would hold for 30 years. An avid collector of surf magazines, photos and memorabilia, he began collecting material for a book about the early days of surfing in Noosa in the early 2000s and published Noosa: Surfing the ‘60s in 2007.

He told journalist and surfer Bill Hoffman: “It was magic in the ’60s. Our memories have forgotten about the sand flies and the sunburn. It was a much mellower place then. If you were going surfing, you’d first have to find someone to go with you. There would be more surfers along Main Beach which had perfect triangular-shaped sand banks. Life was really easy. Now it’s about where you can find a car park and somewhere there’s not 100 people in the water.”

A book about a surfing club established at Vung Tau in the late 1960s by Aussie diggers fighting the Vietnam War was his next project.

Typically Stuart, Charlie Don’t Surf – But Aussies Do told the fascinating story of war-weary soldiers seeking an escape from their terrible realities through surfing. The Vans That Rocked, a homage to the panel vans of our shared youth in words and pictures, followed in 2013.

Although we began sharing emails and information when we were both writing books about surfing history in the early 2000s, I didn’t meet Stuart Scott in person until perhaps the last decade of his life when he became one of my best customers every time I held a garage sale to move on some of my vast collection of surfing magazines and books. (Stu always asked me to keep these transactions a secret from his loving wife Lynda, which was relatively easy since we hadn’t met.)

I was also blissfully unaware that he had been fighting lymphoma for decades. What I saw was the unfailingly sunny side of a guy who loved to reminisce, particularly about the passions we shared, for Noosa, for surfing and for journalistic adventures.

Recently we traded yarns about the rorts and junkets enjoyed by motoring writers (I had spent several years writing for 4WD magazines) which became a feature article for this newspaper.

When I wrote my Noosa history, Place of Shadows, in 2020, Stu was a frequent sounding board who often pulled me up on misconceptions I’d formed about the social fabric of Noosa in the ‘60s. Although he had a wealth of knowledge on these and many other subjects, he was never superior about it. He simply loved to share.

Stuart’s wife Lynda posted on social media last weekend: “He was brave to the end. Given only weeks to live without treatment, he chose to start a gruelling regime of chemotherapy which resulted in cardiac arrest soon after. He did not want a funeral. I am hoping at a later 46 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 8 April, 2022

Nic Hunter of Tom Offermann Real Estate at 60 The Peninsula, Noosa Waters. 274386

A five-bedroom, four-bathroom waterfront house with pool and jetty at 60 The Peninsula, Noosa Waters, goes to auction at 12pm on Saturday, May 7. 274386 the most beautiful property we’ve had the privilege to represent,’’ Nic Hunter said.

“The level of finish and construction is perfect to the eye.

“The easy-flow nature of the house draws you in and makes you feel at home.

“A great blend of textures have been expertly chosen to reflect a homely environment with a luxe splendour.’’

Nic said he has been swamped with interest in the first few days of the property hitting the market.

Inspections are being conducted with qualified buyers as the general interest would be huge.

It will be a private auction at 12pm on Saturday, May 7, with pre-registered bidders invited.

From the spectacular entry, the impact of the outlook from the living area to the water and stone bridge on Mermaid Quay is stunning.

You could live on the outdoor entertaining area alone.

Three fireplaces are framed with dry alpine-stacked stone.

The custom kitchen by Wyer + Craw comprises two island benches/breakfast bar, porcelain-topped shaker-style profile cabinetry with glass panels, Carrara marble splashbacks and multiple high-end appliances, also a butlers’ pantry and a wine cellar.

The west wing has two bedroom suites.

Bathrooms are tiled with imported gold inlay Carrara marble tiles.

One with access to the northerly terraces has an outdoor stone bath and rain shower.

POSITION, POTENTIAL AN ATTRACTION The campaign for the five-bedroom, threebathroom house with pool at 23 The Quarterdeck, Noosa Heads, is going well in the lead-up to auction on Saturday, April 9, at 11am.

Marketed by Gillian McCauley and Rick Daniel of Richardson & Wrench Noosa, it has attracted a lot of interest - especially when the history of income is taken into account.

“Open homes have been well attended,’’ Rick said, “... mid-week as well as weekends.

“It ticks all the boxes for holiday income

when buying on the Hill or in Noosa.’’

A well-proportioned family home, it has two living areas and great separation for large families with multiple indoor-outdoor living areas throughout.

And it’s a short stroll to Noosa Junction, Main Beach and Hastings St. This is a lifestyle property built for privacy and taking advantage of the tropical, elevated position and natural light.

Rick has also reported the four-bedroom, two-bathroom house at 13 Attunga Heights, Noosa Heads, is under offer after being listed with a price guide of $2.60m.

Three more contracts have been requested after this offer had been agreed to.

On 506sq m, the classic original beach house has proven popular due to its location, with a pathway down to Hastings St. Yet the medium density zoning has been another attraction.

Well maintained over the past 34 years of ownership, the offers were all from Queensland - Brisbane, Gold Coast and Noosa - as well as Victoria.

VARIETY OF CHOICES Noosa Estate Agents have a variety of properties lined up for auction this month - from duplex apartments to expansive homes in Noosaville and Noosa Waters.

This follows the sale under the hammer of the four-bedroom, three-bathroom house with pool at 42 Southern Cross Pde, Sunrise Beach.

Nathan Howie said the property attracted two registered bidders - from Sydney and Brisbane - with the Brisbane family winning out on the day with a bid of $2.98m.

This Saturday, April 9, Nathan is taking the three-bedroom, two-bathroom, twocar house with pool at 18 Sternlight St, Noosaville, to the market at 9am.

The substantial brick-and-tile home features high ceilings, renovated kitchen and bathroom, over-sized windows that enhance the sense of space, while banks of sliding glass doors invite you to step outside to the covered patio.

Ceiling fans are fitted throughout, there is split-system air-conditioning and double gate side access.

Inquiry to date has been from locals more than anything, Nathan said, especially those who have been looking for some time at what’s on the market.

On April 16, Nathan will present the three-bedroom, two-bathroom, two-car duplex apartment 22/29 Bluefin Ct, Noosaville, for auction at 3pm.

In a sought-after area in close proximity to shops and the river, the apartment is a blend of contemporary elegance, low maintenance appeal, a thoughtful open floor plan and a private, secluded location.

This double-level duplex features a private solar-heated pool and would suit as a permanent home or a lock-up-and-leave residence.

On Saturday, April 16, Scott Cowley and Kelsie Melville will take the three-bedroom, two-bathroom waterfront duplex 2/1 Sunseeker Close, Noosaville, to auction at 1pm.

Set alongside picturesque parkland with views across the waterways, this spacious duplex villa is in arguably the best position in the street.

A private courtyard opens to expansive living areas that span the lower level and lead onto wrap-around entertaining decks overlooking the canal and views.

The large central kitchen has Caesar stone benchtops, 2-pac cabinetry, and Westinghouse appliances.

There is a spacious downstairs bedroom with two-way bathroom, plus two other bedrooms on the upper level.

The property features fresh white shutters on all windows and doors, airconditioning and ceiling fans throughout.

LOVE THE GOOD LIFE RIVERSIDE DO you aspire to being in the coveted cosmopolitan heart of Gympie Terrace a few footsteps from the sparkling Noosa River foreshore, classy cafes on your doorstep, fishing from a jetty, and watching the kids splash in the shallows and build sandcastles, or envy locals who walk their dogs or two-wheel it along the dedicated cycleways?

What about living the dream with a sure-fire investment in a boutique enclave, where there’s a sassy bright white, 2-level capacious tropical-style townhome in a row of four with only one neighbour. Catching the breeze whilst sipping sundowners with friends on the front terrace certainly says holidays every day ... in spades.

Open the double glass and timberframed doors and notice how natural light drenches the open plan living space and continues through to the dining area on the south side. There’s a monochromatic palette with a long modular sofa in muted grey fabric, with complementary timber accents.

In-between is a large kitchen with VJ-profile panelling, caramel-toned 2-pac cabinetry, grey stone-topped benches/ breakfast bar, plus every appliance necessary to create a family dinner or just salads to go with takeaway fish and chips.

ON THE COVER

PRIZED LOCATION WITH POSTCARDPERFECT VIEWS THIS generous-sized family residence is truly nirvana on Noosa Hill is undoubtedly a sun-splashed class act displaying the aesthetic trend of industrial chic. It commands an enviable vantage point, with 180° views surpassing most others, sweeping beaches along the Coral Sea to beyond Coolum, to the Glasshouse Mountains, and across the coastal playground of Lake Weyba, Noosa Sound, Noosa River and the Hinterland.

Timber decking to the side of contemporary façade, which is framed by verdant natives, leads to an entry way where a rack of surfboards pays homage to the beach locale.

Open the custom door and note the white-washed timber flooring also how this upper level, open-plan, high-ceilinged, over-size living space has an unequivocal connection to outdoors, also one of the numerous massive undercover terraces.

This is akin to taking a seat with the audience in a theatre, or in this case sitting in a canopy above the treetops, in readiness for the daily light and sun show as it moves across the sea and landscape.

Of course, an evening ritual is clutching a glass of one’s favourite, when naturally the sunsets are stupendous including Mt Tibrogargan which is 75kms south in the Glasshouse Mountains, equally the twinkling stars and night lights.

With so much drama outside, it is fitting the interior is considered and calm, yet it exudes function and flair with a fireplace for the winter months and banks of louvres for cooling summer breezes. The kitchen with stone-topped benches and island, has all the bells and whistles for any large family and those with a penchant for entertaining.

Downstairs is a serious bliss zone.

Spoilt for views is also the master bedroom with banks of louvres and doors opening to the undercover terrace, the width of the house. It also has a walk-in robe, ensuite with double glass vanity basins, separate toilet, large corner spa bath, and for those who like to almost commune with nature, the shower has glass walls.

Two additional queen-size bedrooms

have built-in robes and green outlooks.

They share a bathroom which has double glass-topped vanities with stainless steel basins. Laundry facilities are also here, and a toilet is separate.

On the lower level is a two bedroom fully self-contained apartment. Entry to Holiday Haven is via a side gate and a path leads to the poolside terrace.

Central to the great outdoors is the dazzling pool with water feature, surrounding sundeck and undercover pool lounge. At the rear of the block, shrouded by lillypillies and impressive jacarandas, is a firepit. There’s definitely an air of love and deuce coming from the sports/tennis court.

“It’s easy to fall in love with the serenity of an endless summer and those spellbinding 180° views,” say Tom Offermann Real Estate agents Roark Walsh and Tiffany Wilson, who are taking the property to auction on Sunday 24 April 2022.

The popular and obviously prized location is highly sought after. It’s in a quiet leafy street and is walking distance to cosmopolitan Noosa Junction, with its many buzzy cafes, sophisticated restaurants and bars, supermarkets, cinema complex, boutiques, essential services and transport links.

PRIVATE 3 ACRES WITH SHEDS LAKE Macdonald offers an enviable lifestyle with so much to explore and enjoy.

From this secluded cul-de-sac location you can walk to Noosa Botanic gardens and pristine Lake Macdonald (2km) popular for picnicing and kayaking. The Noosa Trails network is easily accessed for hikers, horse riders and mountain bike riders all only a few minutes to Cooroy CBD. Welcome to 86 Racehorse Lane, a property of 3.1 acres with a blend of open lawned areas around the home and sheds and a portion of natural forest at the rear.

The near level land is easily maintained and the established gardens and paths make this private oasis feel like you are free to enjoy life on your own terms.

The Circa 2000 home is of generous proportions and has been well cared for by the original owners. Situated at the end of this quiet lane (local traffic) the home sports a circular drive-way and side access to the 2 sheds. The formal entry leads into abundant living areas and the well-appointed kitchen which has a sunny aspect over the gardens, pool and

large entertaining area.

This home offers 5 bedrooms plus a large home office with separate access, perfect for working from home and meeting clients without compromising family

privacy. The use of nice bright L.E.D. lights throughout the home and sheds has been a good power conscious decision and is aided by 5 Kw solar inverter with 6.5kw of panels. Other features to mention are split

system air-conditioning and fans, salt-water pool, fire-pit surrounded by sub-tropical foliage and flowers, dog fencing and a secure back yard.

Combine this comfortable contemporary home with 2 sheds and ample parking room for cars, caravans and you have a property that meets the needs of every family member. The 22m industrial shed is designed for the serious workspace enthusiast or home-based business operator STCA. The high lift roller doors (ap 4m) will allow parking for motorhomes and taller vehicles with ease. The second 9m x 7m shed is a great space for household storage and car parking. 3 phase power is available at house and shed and 15 amp power points are installed in shed.

The natural forest section at the rear of the block is a haven for local native birds and an ideal place to create some walking tracks or just enjoy nature.

This property represents a great example of thoughtful design for functional and pleasurable living in a desirable location. ●

THERE is no doubt that Noosa River is one of the many jewels in the crown of our local area.

And the best way to appreciate it with family and friends is by boat.

Over the last 80 plus years, tourists and locals alike have been enjoying this beautiful river by renting boats, kayaks and jet skis from T Boat Hire.

With its prominent position at the roundabout of Gympie Terrace and Weyba Road, T Boat Hire is one of the first things people see as they enter the river precinct.

The current operators have held this rare gem for over 25 years and are now ready to retire.

NORTH SHORE ‘MANGO LANDING’ ABSOLUTE riverfront on the glorious Noosa North Shore. “Mango Landing” has been the treasured home of its owners for 31 years.

The views of the Noosa River and Estuary all the way to Mt Tinbeerwah from the living areas and across the home’s wide decks are simply magical. It’s time for you to relax and enjoy the calming ambience.

After the “busyness” of city life, the owners fell under the spell of this pristine and protected nature habitat and claimed the easygoing lifestyle on offer. Reluctantly, it’s time for them to leave.

The well maintained home sits on a huge 991m2. Separate living areas boast high, raked ceilings for cooling airflow.

With 2 generous double guest bedrooms and a main bathroom, plus the master with ensuite, there’s plenty of room for everyone.

The self-contained flat is ideal for guests and family surplus. The large workshop is a perfect space for the hobbyist. A breezeway can accommodate a pool table or other entertainment or sporting equipment.

And if you need to escape to read a book or dream, you can choose a private spot from one of the decks or verandahs – or cast a line from the jetty and throw your catch straight on to the barbie!

The jetty is yours, there’s a covered slipway, 3 bay car parking, water tanks

and solar panels.

Just a tinnie ride to Noosa Marina and Tewantin Village for all the amenities – shops, cafes, clubs, medical. Five minutes by boat and you’re at Gympie Terrace, 5 minutes more and you’ve arrived at Hastings Street!

If you’ve ever dreamed of owning your own island – without the hefty price tag - this could be your closest opportunity.

Noosa North Shore is a unique environment loved by its residents where properties are seldom for sale, so don’t delay. ●
