The Coolana 214 provides easy living.

at Leopold FINDING the ideal home at the right budget is one of the biggest challenges facing new home buyers. This could explain why the Coolana 214 is proving so popular. Part of the Easy Living Range by G.J. Gardner Homes Geelong, the Coolana 214 has it all: zoned open-plan living, alfresco dining, separate study and double garage, all at an affordable price.

A generously sized entry leads onto a separate study and living room, which would also make an ideal home cinema. Thoughtful

touches like the opening in the wall between the two rooms creates a feeling of light and space. Continuing down the hallway, a set of double doors opens to the kitchen, dining and family area. Once again clever use of light and space combine to create real wow factor. Taking pride of place is a stylish white on cream kitchen. Featuring a large pantry, stainless-steel appliances and generously sized central workstation, the kitchen is truly the heart of the home. Through a set of sliding doors is a covered alfresco dining area, perfect for lazy summer evenings and family entertaining. Beyond the kitchen is the bedroom wing with three gener-

LOUD, abusive youths at Clifton Springs’ skate park are instilling fear in neighbours, according to a resident. The resident, who wished to remain anonymous due to safety concerns, said “gangs” were creating nightmare situations for “a majority of” neighbouring residents “afraid to speak up”. “Teenagers or young men who use this park hang in gangs swearing foul and abusing threatening language to anyone who walks past. They’re trashing the area with rubbish that gets blown into the residents’ homes,” the resident said. Incidents worrying locals included a man being “bashed for confronting a gang to stop the drinking, language and the noise” at adjacent tennis courts and a mother with children being threatened. “With new estates in the area this problem will only get worse,” the resident said. Locals regularly contacted police and council but reported problems were persisting, he said. Bellarine Police Leading Senior Constable Robbie Adams said patrols visited the skate park two to three times a day without recent trouble. Recent reports showed damage to

the nearby school and some cars in the area but police had not seen serious problems in “months”, he said. “As soon as you’ve got an area designated to a bunch of kids, most do the right thing, but some will act up and cause problems for us.” Snr Const Adams advised concerned residents to call 000 “each and every time” they were concerned about noise or behaviour. The nearby assault was a “separate incident” that Geelong CIU was investigating, he said. Ward councillor Rod Macdonald said only one resident had alerted him to concerns and a youth worker had “not reported any problems” “If someone’s got problems they need to get back to me and I’ll get one of our community development people to follow it through.” Cr Macdonald said City of Greater Geelong chose the skate park’s Jetty Rd location due to its “high visibility under surveillance of people going past”. Drysdale Clifton Springs Association spokesperson Doug Carson said council should provide rubbish bins in the area. “People get a feed of fish and chips and a couple of cans of red bull and ditch it there,” he said.

Experience meets Innovation In 2012, OPSM Waurn Ponds proudly celebrates over sixty years of spectacle dispensing experience blended with groundbreaking eyecare technology. Colin Isbel (pictured right) has been dispensing spectacles for over forty years and in that time has witnessed vast improvements in lens technology, frame design and eyecare.

Brain damage cuts court fine

Now, Colin and the Waurn Ponds team combine new and exclusive advanced technologies with decades of experience and knowledge. These two new instruments span the breadth of eyecare and eyewear, comprising the Optos Daytona retinal scanner and the Accufit digital dispensing system. Optos Daytona retinal scanning captures a high-resolution, comprehensive 200° view of your retina in less than a second, without the use of drops. By comparison, conventional retinal cameras allow only a 45° view, less than a quarter of that offered by the Optos.

AccuFit, an exclusive digital eyewear measurement system, precisely measures a range of parameters from facial features to inter-pupillary distance to define a completely individual frame and lens fit. A high-definition digital Virtual Mirror enables customers to immediately compare different looks from different angles The LensSimulator tool also allows viewing of lens simulations to see what a difference the right lens can make. Optometrist Rowan Prendergast (pictured left), commented: “OPSM Waurn Ponds continues to make every effort to raise the eye care standard in the Geelong region. These technologies combined allow us to offer the most comprehensive eye check and the most accurately dispensed eyewear possible.” Optos Daytona and Accufit are available at OPSM Waurn Ponds.

A WOMAN’S brain damage lessened her punishment for possession of methamphetamine and stolen goods, a Geelong magistrate ruled this week. Magistrate Michael Coghlan told Julie Hickleton, 31, of Jabone Tce, Bell Park, her $400 aggregate fine for possessing .1 grams of methamphetamine and a stolen trailer and air-conditioner would be “substantially different” from the penalty for co-accused Francois Dominique due to her mental capacity. Hickleton had 40 per cent of her brain removed after a motor accident in 2000, the court heard. “I’m satisfied there’s evidence you have little capacity to assess right from wrong. If I believed you’d taken steps to bring those (illegal items) to your possession I’d consider significant penalty,”

Mr Coghlan said. Police prosecutor Leading Senior Constable Geoff Lamb told the court police issued a search warrant at Hickleton’s Bell Park address on 26 August, finding a snap-lock bag containing the methamphetamine wedged in a couch. “The accused was present at the address along with the coaccused, her boyfriend. She said ‘The amphetamine must’ve been left here by a previous housemate’,” Snr Const Lamb told the court. Hickelton gave no explanation for possessing a white LG inverter split-system air-conditioner also found during the search, he said. Hickelton’s mother and carer, Karen Hickelton, told the court from the witness box of her daughter’s brain injury and its change to her behaviour.

“Before the accident Julie had a career ahead of her. She was a hairdresser and an A-grade netballer,” Ms Hickleton said. “She had a fine life and she knew the fine things in life.” The accident “totally destroyed” her and she was now “very much alone”, Ms Hickleton said. She told the court all of her daughter’s prior convictions followed the accident and were always in the company of men, including Mr Dominique. “I think he’s a bad influence on Julie. I’ve asked both of them not to have the relationship.” Mr Dominique was due to appear in court on similar charges at a later date. Mr Coghlan stressed the coaccused had a “substantially different matter”, negating “any argument in relation to parity”.

JUST one of Ocean Grove celebrant Jane Carrigg’s many success stories involved transforming the mood of a wedding amid nightmare weather. “I was standing on a bench and everyone was in bare feet with dripping hair,” Ms Carrigg said. “The poor bride was angry but I slipped something into the vows pertinent to the occasion, like ‘In sunshine and in rain’, and they all laughed.” Ms Carrigg was surprised to be honoured with a Westpac Women in Business award for service to her community despite beginning work conducting weddings and funerals only 18 months ago. “I’m not exactly high-powered.” Ms Carrigg was grateful for the award because she expected the winner to be in a career with a greater focus on money. Years in “personal services” including youth work and teaching gave Ms Carrigg skills for reaching out to people in times of need, she said. But “a little bit of distance and responsibility” helped her avoid tearing up during funerals. “As the celebrant, it’s actually not so bad. A couple of times I’ve felt a bit tight in the throat but I’ve never felt I’ve needed to let go.”

Liberal, Labor connections but Fagg says:

Council ‘politics-free’ By NOEL MURPHY GEELONG’S new council will be free of political dominance despite the Liberal and Labor alignments of councillors, according to the city’s first directly-elected mayor. Keith Fagg told the Independent council would promote Geelong as open for business and not be politically-driven. The new 13-strong council features several members with Liberal or conservative/ business connections and four

aligned to Labor. “A Liberal or conservative-dominated council? No, it’s a community-dominated council,’’ Cr Fagg said. “I think the range of its concerns will be issues the community has spoken about. Issues will include enhancing our economic development but at the same time a range of things in the community, not just council services but groups doing great things in our town.’’ Liberal-leaning council-

lors include Stretch Kontelj, Michelle Heagney and Ron Nelson. Tony Ansett was a Liberal member until 1999 but has since described himself as independent. Labor-aligned councillors are Andy Richards, Rod Macdonald, Kylie Fisher and Jan Farrell. Cr Stretch Kontelj, a former mayor and federal Liberal candidate, said council was unlikely to prove overly political. “I don’t think party poli-

tics of either side could claim any advantage. “Decisions will have to made by consensus, which is great - there will be some good debate.’’ Liberal ructions over support for candidates tainted the poll, including a call from within the party for the state executive to investigate whether the Liberals were funding candidates. Committee for Geelong also embroiled the party in hot water when it supplied its

member database to Liberal mayoral candidate Bernadette Uzelac for campaigning purposes. Two Liberal candidates in Brownbill Ward, Angelo Kakouros and winner Michelle Heagney, clashed bitterly over a letter-drop campaign. The Independent also revealed Labor activity in the election, with party state secretary Noah Carroll ordering candidates with ALP memberships to direct first preferences to other members standing in the same wards.

New owner to centralise Mill Markets at Newcomb GEELONG antiques dealer Mark Ward has bought Mill Markets and will centralise local operations at Newcomb, he announced this week. Administrator Muldoon Benton last week finalised the sale to Mr Ward of the Mill Markets brand and its Newcomb, Daylesford and Ballarat premises. The sale followed nearly two months of administration and the sacking of former boss Ian Ballis. Mr Ward said he planned to diversify the business and add tourist information to the three centres’ cafes. Stallholder Geoff Rossbotham said the market’s nearly-300 stallholders were thrilled with the sale. “It’s very upbeat in here now. It’s not doom and gloom anymore,” he said.

Mr Ward stressed that Mr Ballis would have “no involvement”. Mr Ward said he decided against purchasing former Mill Markets sites in Brougham St and North Geelong to avoid “too much dilution” in the town. “Newcomb is a large venue and I’m going to fill it up.” Mr Ward said in his first week of ownership about 40 stallholders who left the business during the administration period reapplied for stalls. “It’s a great vote of confidence and the uncertainty’s gone. It won’t be long until the place is back to its vibrant self.” Mr Ward said he would lease his Ryrie St antique shop to focus “100 per cent” on Mill Markets. “The investment was substantial, so it’s important I work hard to protect it.”

POLICE have launched an operation to crack down on late-night assaults in central Geelong. Inspector Garry Thompson said police would be “out in force” for Operation Owl, which would have an emphasis on patrolling Moorabool St’s taxi rank.

Although there is much talk these days about people becoming less active in our city, it certainly isn’t apparent when I am out and about the city streets and parklands. You have only got to take a look at the increased numbers attending fun runs, to know that certain groups are defying these trends. Young mums, in particular, can be seen out there pounding the pavement, doing themselves and their families proud. When mum or dad gets fit, so does the whole family! Leading by example is the most powerful message you can deliver to those you care about the most. Your health, and that of your loved ones, is your wealth! Need a better reason? You will struggle to find one!

Serendip cut angers residents By JOHN VAN KLAVEREN COMMUNITY groups hope to influence State Governementâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s budget process to reverse a â&#x20AC;&#x153;disgracefulâ&#x20AC;? decision to cut Serendip Sanctuaryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s education program. Lionel McWilliam, of Lara residentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; group TLC, said more than 70 schools from Melbourne and Geelong used the facility last year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The education program is now in decline yet schools made up 30 per cent

of the visits to Serendip,â&#x20AC;? Mr McWilliam said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is also affecting general visitor numbers.â&#x20AC;? Lara MP John Eren said the Government cut the education program after Parks Victoria decided against replacing a departing education ranger at Serendip. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The State Government has sneakily taken away Serendipâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s education ranger, so weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re speaking with community groups and residents to see what we can

do to have the ranger reinstated.â&#x20AC;? Former Serendip ranger Mike Helman said he was â&#x20AC;&#x153;absolutely devastatedâ&#x20AC;? after spending 20 years developing the education program. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Serendip used to deliver the program to more than 16,000 students a year, far more successful than similar programs at Wilsons Promontory, the Dandenong ranges and the Grampians. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yet these other less successful pro-

grams are still funded.â&#x20AC;? Opposition education spokesperson James Merlino said Parks Victoria promoted Serendip as â&#x20AC;&#x153;one of the greatest wildlife spectacles on earthâ&#x20AC;?. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Representing Dandenong, I know firsthand how important these programs are and I heard about the success of Serendip compared to the others. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is one of the most successful education programs in the state yet this is

the one that has been cut the most, courtesy of the Baillieu Government. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a tragedy, so Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m backing the community campaign to get this disgraceful decision reversed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;State Government is about to start its budget review process so now is the time to agitate for restoration of that funding.â&#x20AC;? The Government had not returned the Independentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s call for comment when the paper went to press.

CLASS ACTS: Matthew Gargan, 16, and Gabby McMahon trial the captioning system at Grovedale College. Picture: TOMMY RITCHIE can catch up on anything they missed.â&#x20AC;? Grovedale College student Matthew Gargan, 16, said he liked the transcripts. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I get a second chance to check the classroom work, which the other students donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get,â&#x20AC;? he laughed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The caption system makes me feel like I belong; it gives me confidence to participate. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I feel more comfortable with the system when Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m in class.â&#x20AC;?

The system is part of a new Victorian Deaf Education Institute aiming to improve education outcomes for hearing-impaired students. Education minister Martin Dixon said Victoriaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2760 deaf and hearing-impaired students previously lacked the same educational opportunities as their peers. A review discovered that one in two deaf or hearing-impaired students dropped out of school between years 10 and 12, he said.

HEARING-IMPAIRED students across the region are set to benefit from a live captioning pilot program at Grovedale College. Teacher Gabby McMahon said the system enabled deaf and hearing-impaired students to participate in classroom discussions and activities virtually in real time. A teacher wears a microphone plugged into a mobile phone, which relays their words to a â&#x20AC;&#x153;captionerâ&#x20AC;? who re-speaks them into speech-to-text conversion software. The text then appears on the studentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s laptop or tablet computer in seconds. The pilot program is operating in a deaf facility serving prep-to-year-12 students at Grovedale primary and secondary schools. Ms McMahon said the facility was the only one for the Barwon south-west region, including Warrnambool, Portland and Colac. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We run outreach programs through video conferencing to help teachers of deaf students with advice and resources. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It also allows deaf students to talk to each other and share experiences, so they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feel so isolated.â&#x20AC;? Ms McMahon said the captioning program had multiple benefits for hearingimpaired students. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a discussion in an English class, for instance, hearing-impaired students could miss out on large parts of it, with people behind and to the side as well as the teacher all contributing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The caption system also provides transcripts for students to take home so they

10,000 jobs go ‘in one month’ By MICHELLE HERBISON UNEMPLOYMENT in the Barwon South-West region soared to 7.1 per cent in September, more than double the same time last year, according to Australian Bureau of Statistics. The region was 1.6 per cent worse in September than August when unemployment was 5.5 per cent. State Member for Western Victoria Region Gayle Tierney quoted the “bad set of numbers” in parliament, urging Employment and Industrial Relations minister Richard Della-Riva to take action. “The Geelong and Barwon South-Western regions lost more than 10,000 jobs in one month,” she said.

“Of the 12,400 jobs lost in August, 83 per cent were in my electorate.” Ms Tierney criticised State Government for announcing fisheries research job cuts at Queenscliff as Geelong employers including Brace and Ford struggled. “There have been continuing redundancies at Ford Geelong yet the Government has still seen fit to continue with its cuts to the Department of Primary Industries. Teaching and support staff at TAFEs have lost their jobs, including The Gordon and South West TAFE, and jobs have been lost from the public service right across the electorate.” Employment Minister Richard Dalla-Riva said Ms Tierney was “misreading” the ABS data to concoct a gloomy “scenario” .

“According to the official ABS statistics for September, the number of Victorians employed increased by 9100 from 2,877,900 to 2,887,000,” he said. Regional labour force statistics were subject to a “high level of sampling error” and “may not be a true reflection of actual movements in the labour market” due to small sample sizes,” Mr Dalla-Riva said. “Since the Coalition Government came to office in December 2010 employment growth in Victoria (has been) the second highest of all states. “This attempt by Ms Tierney to mislead the people of Geelong and the Barwon South-West region once again proves you can’t trust Labor.”

Gallery’s bush burial in digital age 1040122-KG44-12

GEELONG Gallery is hosting one of its “most ambitious” exhibitions, according to the gallery’s curator. Lisa Sullivan said artists Cameron Bishop and Simon Reis’ digital installation followed a new concept for the gallery. “We’ve had projections and digital works before but not something interventionalist like this,” Ms Sullivan said. The interactive installation uses audio-visual elements to incorporate the viewer as part of the work on display. Digital manipulation of resident painting Frederick McCubbin’s A Bush Burial replaces the original subjects with the viewer’s face in a coffinlike box, while two wooden structures show inside a video for a new analysis of the 1890 artwork. Mr Bishop, a Deakin University art lecturer, said the concept played on McCubbin’s melancholic sense of pioneer civilisation.

Doctor exposes fish oil ‘sham’ By JOHN VAN KLAVEREN FISH oil tablets do little or nothing for heart or brain health, a Geelong lecturer and doctor has revealed. Dr Michael Vagg said fish oil or Omega 3 tablets were virtually placebos. Dr Vagg, a clinical senior lecturer at Deakin University School of Medicine and a pain specialist at Barwon Health, said regulatory issues clouded the

marketing of fish oil and other vitamin supplements. “One of the problems with the supplements being sold is that they get preliminary research that suggests it’s a plausible idea. All of a sudden they set up pill presses and are designing a brand but when the proper science is done it reveals there’s not much of an effect, if there’s any at all.” Dr Vagg said the Therapeutic Goods Administration was toothless on enforcing regulatory standards

for fish oil and other dietary supplements. “Do we need a quarter of the population on supplements? No. “People who are otherwise fit and well and don’t have the risk factors are not adding to their health by taking fish oil but they’re adding millions of dollars to the manufacturer’s bottom line.” Dr Vagg said people taking supplements could be less vigilant on other health risks.

“People want an easy way out but it really is best to have a healthy lifestyle. “Popping heaps of supplements and vitamins is concentrating on wrong part of the health equation.” Dr Vagg said supplement manufacturers were breaching as much as 70 to 90 per cent of regulations. “It is the ultimate placebo industry and it’s okay if it’s advertised as such but it’s not.”

Volleyball seeking to bounce back in Geelong Join the

club John Van Klaveren

VOLLEYBALL was big in Geelong once – the competition boasted 100 teams in its 1960s heyday. These days Geelong Amateur Volleyball Association’s senior men’s competition, for example, is down to just four teams. But GAVA’s jack of all trades, Robert Straube, holds hope for the struggling sport, in the form of juniors and recent arrivals. “The sport was very European-centric because that was its power-base. Volleyball is popular in Eastern Europe in particular,” Robert explained. “But somewhere along the line the ball was dropped and we’re trying to get it back. Like other sports, we suffered from a lack of funds, resources and volunteers. “What we want to do now is rejuvenate volleyball in Geelong, to rekindle interest, through a major push into schools in the region. “Our initiative is to engage schools to set up a volleyball program within the school, developing coaches and referees from parents and teachers.

COURTING PLAYERS: Robert Straube, at right, with GAVA juniors. Picture: TOMMY RITCHIE 88538 “We’re looking to build a broader base of the sport in Geelong than we have at the moment, which is next to nothing.” The effort to pump new air into volleyball has already reaped rewards, with young players from the Afghan

and Kareni communities picking up the sport. “We’re involved with (multicultural services provider) Diversitat because members of the refugee communities asked to get involved in volleyball.

“They’re so eager, they’re easy to coach, they’re keen and they apply everything they’re taught. “We’re in discussions with the council to include a mixed social competition at the Leisuretime centre. “We’re trying to fit it in with our junior coaching and training sessions for our under-15 and under-13 girls teams.” Robert said volleyball had a number of benefits in a school sports program, particularly because it was a non-contact sport and accepted any type of physique. “We’re looking for schools that would like to generate teams. If we could get 18 high schools involved it could be quite a large competition. “As an example of what can be achieved, the North Geelong secondary college boys made it to the metropolitan finals earlier this year. “The efforts of the Australian volleyball team at the Olympics will hopefully inspire more people. “Australia thrashed China in three sets to qualify and that sent a message to the volleyball world. “We followed that by outplaying our 11th ranking by beating the number three team in the world, Poland.” Robert said more information was available by phoning him on 0410 412 657 or emailing robert.straube@geelongvolleyball.com

The Independent has seen documents sent to GAWS’ executive, claiming the board had acted against its own constitution in trying to sack the members President Joyce Doherty said the board was dealing with the issue “in a formal and confidential manner’’. “We’ve sought legal advice and our

lawyer is in contact with these ex-board members.’ The resignation call emerged as controversy surrounding GAWS deepened this week amid claims the organisation was unable to account for 300 animals, with the society revealing the same number was killed in the four months to October. A bitter debate has raged among GAWS supporters in recent weeks amid deaththreat allegations, warnings of legal action and claims a pet dog was killed accidentally and other animals were given away free.

Ms Doherty said the first priority of GAWS’ new management had been to implement on online shelter management system. “Prior management ran a hand-written minute book that we believe was not accurate.” Ms Doherty said GAWS had given away some pets to rescue organisations to avoid “euthanasing these animals”. GAWS put down 1517 animals in 2011/2012, according to a draft annual report on the internet.

Gender war

Force Avalon benefits

THE move to place women in combat roles in the ADF is a backward step. Most people in the community according to opinion polls do not favour placing such positions. As a general rule of thumb, most polls indicate that around 70 per cent of people are opposed to including women in front-line combat roles. Increasing the participation rate of women in the military does not increase efficiency, contrary to the claims of some. It is humbug to suggest that gender does not matter and is purely incidental. Research in Europe and the US, clearly shows that women in combat roles lower battle efficiency and male cohesion within combatant units. I thought modern society was trying to shield women from domestic violence and such like yet here we are wanting to place women in harm’s way. It doesn’t add up. Besides, with women having lower unemployment rates than men, why the rush to get women into a traditional male role? With men making up the majority of the unemployed, the military should be looking at ways of getting more men, not women, into the army. Alan Barron Grovedale

CALL it a healthy cynicism but Avalon Airport’s international terminal, despite a building block or two seemingly in place, remains, given the precipitous status of federal and state governance. How best can political promises be held to account, given the Craig Thomsons, Peter Slippers and Geoff Shaws of a dually parlous political landscape, not to mention Tony Abbott’s ineptitude when it comes to firm policies. Lindsay Fox is entitled to feel aggrieved with the Baillieu coalition’s premature push for a third international airport on Westernport when Avalon, which requires essentially cosmetics and an international carrier or two, still isn’t able to service a demographic of 2.5 million because the waters have become further muddied. Asian carriers for both tourists and produce are entitled to be scratching their heads. It’s critical that an Avalon-centric, accountable taskforce comes into play for the long haul, holding state and federal governance to account as well as stumping up public/private partnerships to give Linfox a fair go. Regional flow-on benefits accruing from an upand-about Avalon remain pretty much unquantifiable. Richard Worland Manifold Heights

Grovedale future IT was reported recently that there had been a significant drop in demand for electricity around the country. While some of this was due to current economic circumstances and the recently introduced carbon tax, a significant percentage was the result of the number of solar panels on the rooftops of many of our nation’s homes. Apparently the suburb of Grovedale has one of the biggest uptakes of solar panels in the country. Well done, Grovedale! This is truly a quiet revolution that will usher in a future without dirty coal-burning power stations. It is a turning point and I encourage everyone who can afford it to install a solar system to help the planet and to never pay an electricity bill again. Leigh Adamson Belmont

Balance retained THE attempt by the Restore the Balance candidates to seize control of the Borough of Queenscliffe failed miserably, with only one of the trio being elected. Between them they received only 28 per cent of the vote. Despite their high public profile, glossy leaflets and posters and the backing of a local paper, the community wasn’t fooled and saw through the glib promises and the fancy words. This result was a triumph for those of us who see unfettered development as anathema to good governance at the local level. It reinforced the idea that planning proposals must be subjected to appropriate environmental, heritage and social checks and balances. Finally, it endorsed the right to object to proposed projects and how that right should be sacrosanct. One of the failed candidates once wrote that the 2008 election was a result of public apathy. No, sir, it was not disinterested and half-hearted locals but an informed and sophisticated electorate that voted for common sense and the greater good, not the self-interest of a few.

Funding comes around OVER the past 12 months the Labor Federal Government has made one of the biggest investments ever in regional health, education, infrastructure and skills development. The first two rounds of the Regional Development Australia Fund (RDAF) saw $350 million of federal investment leverage more than $1.2 billion in total investment through partnerships – a multiplier of up to four to one. I recently announced that rounds three and four of RDAF would make available another $225 million in funding from the Minerals Resource Rent Tax (MRRT). Round three will see $50 million dedicated specifically to projects in small towns with a population of 30,000 or less, while round four will distribute $175 million to support strategic infrastructure projects. I urge community groups and leaders to persist with projects that missed out in the first two rounds and to talk to their Regional Development Australia committee to discuss the sorts of projects that should be put forward for consideration.

THE problem with politics is that today it plays its constituency instead of providing for it. politics should not be a game. On the local political level, another matter that concerns me became apparent during the past council term. At a public meeting on a matter of local controversy, a councillor said he could not, in advance of a council vote, offer any comments or indicate his preferences on the matter on the grounds that he was required to be “seen to be impartial”. What rubbish! I am not attacking the councillor personally if this is the case but of course we have to know our council representatives’ opinions on controversial matters – that’s how we know who to elect in the first place! If we know what they stand for at election time why can’t we know their opinions on matters arising during their term of office? Local government is meant to be a work in progress, not come to a standstill between elections. As someone once said, democracy is only ever truly representative on polling day. Whether the political system is monarchist, democratic or revolutionary, surely what is important is that its administration shows a duty of care and is competent, comprehensive and compassionate to what is essentially its own, albeit very large, family.

Snakes warning Community Calendar for local homes Friday RESIDENTS should beware of long grass and clean up around the homes to avoid harbouring unwanted and deadly serpentine guests, council has warned. City Hall issued the warning as growth from a wet winter and spring drives a rich habitat for snakes this year. Council’s environment and natural resources unit warned that anyone who came across a snake should keep themselves and pets clear. “Snakes tend to take a higher toll on pets than people,’’ a council spokesman said. “All snakes are protected, so people must not kill them or injure them. There are penalties in legislation for doing this.’’ Anyone who encountered a snake “concerning them” should contact a commercial, licensed snake catcher or Department of Sustainability and Environment on 136 186 for advice, the spokesperson said.

Organ has sax appeal to Neal By CHERIE DONNELLAN AS A burgeoning jazz musician, Tim Neal discovered his love for the Hammond organ while playing saxophone in a blues band. So he did what any serious musician would do - he sold his beloved Volkswagon to buy one. Now a highly sought-after Australian musician, the humble Ocean Grove jazz cat has spent several years passing on his knowledge of the organ, sax and bass guitar while teaching budding musicians. That’s when he’s not touring with renowned musicians the likes of Archie Roach, of course. “I’m playing with Archie at the moment and I’m about to tour for his new album,” Neal said. “In between gigs (Australia-wide, I can stop for an extra day and run a Hammond organ workshop. “It’s great because with the Hammond, there are so many different techniques so I get to see everyone’s variations. I love the freedom and interpretations of it.” Neal hailed Ocean Grove’s Piping Chicken Shop, where he will play with his band, The Scion Pirates, on November 9, for celebrating local talent and encompassing the “community spirit of jazz”. “We’re lucky enough to have a regular gig there but its great when we get to have other talented musicians play with us,” he enthused. One of Neal’s former students, saxophonist and vocalist Jacky Wong, and guitarist Jaron Mulholland will also play at the shop’s Jazz Week celebrations. “Jazz is all-encompassing and it’s even creeping back into mainstream music, so these talented musicians get the chance to shine.”

BABY BOOMER: Jon English is returning to Geelong.

THE IRONY of casting performers with an average age of 23 for a ‘60s and ‘70s-themed rock stage show was evident to Australian music legend Jon English. But he said the youth of Rock Revolution’s performers would still stir nostalgia among “baby boomer” audiences. “The music period of ’64 to ’80 was the time when all the baby boomers were teenagers or tweenagers,” English observed. “At that period we were growing hair in strange places and going through the angst and there were millions of us. “My theory is we’re still the largest demographic in the world.” English said bands within the era had bigger fan bases than today’s tween pop group One Direction. “If you were a popular band back then it was like One Direction times 100. “It was an interesting time to live.” English told the Independent the era had many ironies.

“It’s shown as the time of peace and love but there was violence and the Vietnam War. It was a time of change and of revolution. “For our generation there was also a revolution within our own minds, through music.” English described the cast of Rock Revolution was “incredibly gifted”. “It’s not just a tired old Jon English show,” he joked. “It’s fun and upbeat. There’s lots of comedy and dialogue and lots of stories.” Former members of his stage production Rock Show were in the ensemble, while English found other cast members through his networks rather than relying on “dangerous” auditions. “Auditions don’t give you an insight into the business, into how they’ll perform in different situations, so I found people through our networks, our little club.” “We had a play (with some songs) and a chat and it worked.” English will star in Rock Revolution at Geelong Performing Arts Centre this Friday night.

AN Australian Securities and Investment Commission (ASIC) study has discovered that Australian consumers lack understanding of the products they buy when planning ahead for funerals. The research suggested that people would settle with the first product they came across instead of looking at value for money or taking long-term costs into account. Funeral insurance seems to be the main discussion point when planning ahead but not for good reason. Consumer group Choice described funeral insurance as “junk insurance”, noting that premiums can add up to several times the benefit families. However, other options are available, with Choice describing pre-paid funerals and funeral bonds as “smarter alternatives”. Tuckers Funeral & Bereavement Service will open its doors at various locations around Geelong from November 12 to 16 to help education the community on the alternatives. Tuckers will providing free information about funeral plans, with talks covering topics such as pre-paid funerals, funeral bonds, general information about the funeral care process in Victoria and details on the company’s services they provide. Tuckers Funeral & Bereavement Service’s Michele Van Liessum said the business has been serving the community for over 125 years.

Streets alive with festival GEELONG’S Streets Are Alive festival will host an array of talented locals performing diverse acts this weekend. Co-organiser Grant Conn says entrants for the festival’s Bell Ringer street performer competition could include “musicians, jugglers, dancers or acrobats”. “We know from last year’s competition there’s a heap of local talent around and we want to give them a chance to show how good they are,” Mr Conn says. “The more diverse our performers are, the happier our Streets Are Alive patrons will be.”

A cast of colourful performers is set to perform in central Geelong this weekend.

GEELONG patrons have been flocking to the newly refurbished Irish Murphy’s. The pub will host its official reopening this weekend with live entertainment. Geelong cover band Wooshka will perform its rock music repertoire on November 3. Irish musicians will also have audiences singing and dancing. Irish Murphy’s upstairs restaurant, the Argyle, offers patrons contemporary cuisines in an inviting dining atmosphere. The restaurant windows frame beautiful views of Geelong and the You Yangs. Irish Murphy’s restaurant

earned its namesake from the site’s original Argyle Hotel, home to the Geelong Football Club in the late 1800s. History enthusiasts can learn about the pub’s historic site from framed published articles lining its walls. The pub can be hired for a range of functions by simply asking Irish Murphy’s friendly staff. Owner Barb Smoorenburg says patrons have been raving about head chef Aaron Templeton’s newly designed restaurant menu. “It’s great to get such positive feedback.” Menu options include the

chef’s special seafood boullibaise, pan-roasted snapper, traditional chicken parmigiana and eye fillet mignon. The downstairs lounge and bar serves traditional Irish pub grub including bangers ‘n’ mash and Irish stew. Gourmet pizzas and a tapas menu are also available. Patrons can enjoy $10 pizza specials on Thursday nights. The venue’s friendly staff are always happy to field enquiries about bookings for Christmas functions. Irish Murphy’s is open seven days a week at 30 Aberdeen St, Geelong West, phone 5221 4335.

WORLD’S MOST ENERGY EFFICIENT SPA

Losing weight

• Full & partial dentures • Mouthguards • Relines/Rebases • Health fund claims • Repairs/Emergency appointments

Mandy Fisher

DO you feel tired and have a lack of energy? Maybe you need to drink more water. Even mild dehydration can drain your energy and make you tired. Water is your body’s main chemical component and makes up about 65 per cent of your body weight. Every system in you body depends on water. Water has many health benefits. Water flushes toxins out of vital organs and carries nutrients to your cells. Daily you lose water through breathing, perspiration, urine and bowel movements. For your body to function properly, you must replenish its water supply by consuming beverages and foods that contain water. Water is one of the best tools for weight loss because it’s a great appetite suppressant and often when we think we’re hungry we’re actually thirsty. Drinking water could lower your risk of a heart attack. Often when we have headaches it’s simply a matter of not drinking enough water. Drinking water can help clear up your skin. Our digestive systems need a good amout of water to digest food properly. Water is used by the body to help flush out toxins and waste products from the body. We should try to consume at least two litres of fluid a day through what we eat and drink. To get into the habit of drinking water it is best to form a routine, such as drinking a glass when waking up, having a glass with each meal or between meals and drinking it before, during and after exercise. Drinking water is one of the healthy recommendations when following The Weight Works. Join now and learn more about the healthy habits that can help you lose weight and maintain it.

WINDOW films are an easy, affordable answer to reduce those energy bills and make your house more sustainable. Energy saving window film is one of the most effective passive solar devices available to home owners. Window tinting improves the energy efficiency of homes by reflecting, absorbing and re-radiating solar energy, helping to keep the heat out in summer, while some films are designed to retain heat in winter. Government and industry modelling has shown that for an average home, solar control window film can result in a 30 per cent drop in air conditioner usage, equating to a 10 to 15 per cent

reduction in your home’s annual electrical costs. Creating a consistent and neat external appearance, films allow natural lighting while reducing hot spots and reducing glare, including on television and computer screens. Views are enhanced and the general lighting within the home is softened. Privacy is improved making life more comfortable year round. Window film blocks more than 99 per cent of harmful UV rays, not only saving furnishings and floors from fading, but helping prevent ageing, skin cancer and damage to the eyes, which is important for every member of the family including pets. Window films offer far more

value than many other products designed to reduce energy gain through windows. As a retrofit option, they work in easily with existing blinds, shutters and other passive solar devices. Films are environmentally friendly and offer a negative carbon footprint. Torquay Tinting’s Vincenzo “Vinnie” Tabacco is also a registered building practitioner whose positive approach toward helping the environment and improving the energy rating of client’s homes helped him win a CSIRO Passive Solar Award.

BMW’S X5 has proven to be a huge success in Australia, primarily because it’s more of a sporty people mover than an SUV. Indeed, BMW prefers to call it an SAV (Sports Activity Vehicle) rather than an SUV (Sports Utility Vehicle). Though you can use an X5 as an offroad explorer if the conditions aren’t overly rough, most owners never take them off sealed surfaces. The BMW X5 first reached Australia in November 2000 and gained a good reputation right from the start. It really appealed to those looking for a prestigious station wagon to cart kids. And many buyers had dreams of one day carting those kids into some interesting out-of-the-way areas in the Australian bush or desert. Or perhaps even to the beach. The second generation X5 came here in early 2007 and has been given regular upgrades, the most recent in January 2012. The third generation BMW X5 is due to be launched in 2013. With a large majority of X5 buyers now choosing diesel engines, BMW has made the xDrive30d its entry level model, replacing the previous petrolpowered xDrive30i. Although there was no change in the price of the 2012 xDrive30d there was a substantial jump in value with the previous Innovations Package, valued by BMW at $16,000 and priced as a $9000 option, now included in the manufacturers list price of $92,100. The new ‘free’ equipment includes satellite navigation, reversing camera including a new ‘Top View’ facility, a head-up display that projects speed and satellite navigation onto the windscreen in front of the driver, powered front seats, high beam assist and power tailgate. Other standard equipment includes active cruise control, lane departure warning, hill descent control, dualzone climate control air conditioning, bi-xenon headlights, anti-glare side mirrors, high beam assist and more. See your local BMW dealer to delve further into the full range of fascinating features offered. The latest addition to the BMW X5 range is the xDrive 30d Perfomance Edition a package that includes 21inch alloy wheels, front and rear aerodynamic trim, high-gloss black kidney grille, side sills and wheel arch extensions.

There are five engines, three diesel and two petrol, all with some level of turbo assistance. The xDrive30d generates 180 kW of power at 4000 rpm and torque 540 Nm between 1750 and 3000 rpm. Despite its size it can accelerate from zero to 100 km/h in just 7.6 seconds, yet it uses just 7.4 litres per 100 kilometres on the Australian combined cycle test. Not surprisingly it dominates X5 sales. The second diesel engine, powering the xDrive40d, is of the same (3.0-litre) capacity but comes with two turbochargers and so provides significantly more power (225 kW) and torque (600 Nm). Despite this extra performance, fuel consumption is only fractionally higher than that from the xDrive30d, at just 7.5 L/100km, an amazing figure for a vehicle with a kerb weight of 2100 kg. Saving the best till last, BMW has just added the X5 xDrive M50d to the range. As the ‘M’ in the name indicates, it comes from BMW’s highperformance division (similar to Holden’s HSV and Ford’s FPV). Under the bonnet of the M50d is a new 280 kW six-cylinder which, according to BMW, is the most powerful volumeproduced six-cylinder diesel engine in the world. Using triple turbocharging technology it generates a staggering 740 Nm of torque between 2000 to 3000 revs, with the 280 kW peak power coming between 4000 and 4400 rpm, equal to the sports car performance of 93.6 kW per litre and 5.4 seconds for the standing 100 km/h dash. Despite this the x50 M50d can use as little as 7.5 litres per 100 km although we don’t anticipate many owners will be driving this off-road hot rod too conservatively. We’ve yet to test drive it but will report on it when we do. The xDrive35i has a 3.0-litre turbocharger petrol engine that uses BMW’s TwinPower technology combined with variable valve control to enhance performance to 225 kW and 400 Nm. The extra value proposition comes as the X5, which has been the market leader in the luxury SUV category for far longer than its competitors would care to remember, is being challenged by the latest Mercedes-Benz M-Class – and such competition that can only be good for buyers.

GEELONG’S mechanics and authorised service centre Rally Motors has split its business to improve services for customers. Rally Motors, at 11 Curtis St, Belmont, now operates as the company’s service centre. Rally Off Road, at 305 Bellerine St, South Geelong, looks after all customers’ four-wheel-drive needs. Manager Daniel says the move has been successful. “We’ve basically done it so each business can focus on its own expertise,” he says. Rally Motors, the company’s general service and repair centre, services all late-model vehicles as well as classic and heritage cars. Log-book servicing, general repairs and diagnostic are just some of the areas Rally Motors covers. Daniel says Rally Motors’ staff-members are at the forefront of keeping up with the latest technology. “We do a lot of training and keep up to date with the latest diagnostic equipment,” he says. Rally Off Road offers a full range of four-wheeldrive services, from accessory sales and fitment right through to logbook servicing, pre-trip inspections and modifications and repairs. It is one of the region’s few dedicated off-road specialists. Rally Off Road is Geelong’s sole distributor for Ironman 4x4 products including bullbars, winches, suspensions and more. Daniel says Ironman 4x4 is the fastest-growing four-wheel-drive accessory company in the country. “It’s a good product at a reasonable price and affordable to the average person.” More information is available at www.rallymotors.com.au Bookings for Rally Motors car servicing is available by phoning 5222 1777.

IndySport Indy Sport Geelong bats seeking a boost GEELONG Cricket Club put in a much more determined effort last weekend in the first week of its match against Essendon. After losing the toss and being asked to bowl, the Cats didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have it all their own way but stuck at their task to dismiss Essendon for a very gettable 224. Marc Carson, 3/26, rediscovered his rhythm and returned the best figures of the day from his 18 overs, while Adam DiGiacomo, 2/21, and Jacob Thorne, 2/23, leant good support all day. Geelong had to see off three overs to complete the first dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s play and did so without fuss, knocking eight runs off the target for the loss of no wickets. If nightwatchman Michael Condy can

Local

cricket Jim Timberlake

provide some nuisance value and give his side a good start the Geelong batting lineup should have enough talent to record a morale-boosting victory. In Geelong Cricket Associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s match of the round between local rivals South Barwon and East Belmont the Lions hold the upper hand after a strong batting display on day one.

When Andrew Ross, 2/50, had both openers back in the pavilion with just 36 runs on the board the Swans had a sniff of some quick wickets but Chris Bambury, 65, steadied the ship with help from Grant Ward, 10. When Bambury was run out the score was 4/130 and the dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s play was in the balance. However, a brilliant counter attack from Sean Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Neill, 75, and Mark Hanley, 85, and a late charge by Matthew Caulfield, 28, saw the Lions finish the dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s play on 6/300. Most teams would normally be very confident defending 300 but, with Clinton Peake in exquisite form, this game is a long way from over. In division two St Albanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Breakwa-

ter flexed its muscle to send Modewarre a message that it still has a long way to go before it can compete with the top teams. Modewarre batted first and skipper Michael Brown, 37, showed his experience at the top of the order but received little help as the Saints bowlers tore through the rest of the order, dismissing the Warriors for just 123. Jackson Burke, 3/27, and Andrew Vine, 3/13, were the pick of the bowlers, while Justin Miller, 2/29, bowled with good pace. Modewarre had 22 overs to try to get itself back in the match but Saints opener Phil Lang, 71, ensured there would be no collapse as his side finished day one on 1/94.

If St Albanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Breakwater can get some quick runs tomorrow an outright result might be on the cards. Winchelsea batted first in its division three match against Meredith and dominated the dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s play to score a huge 9/262. Matthew Partridge, 86, was the mainstay of the Blues innings, with help from Tom Stephenson, 49, and Matthew Tench, 38. For the Rams, John Boljkovac, 4/97, toiled hard bowling 30 overs, while Ty Watts, 3/91, went for a few runs. Meredith has the batsmen to get these runs but it will take all their skill and experience to do so.

Snapper taken in shallows as summery weather arrives On the

bite Brian Long

SUMMERY temperatures in the past week fired up the snapper in Corio Bayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s inner and outer harbours. Many anglers worked the channel line although it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem the best location, with better captures have been coming further away on the inshore grass and reef beds. Last weekend Paul Tanner fished off the quarries in around six metres of water where all was quiet. He moved inshore looking for a few whiting but caught a trio of snapper better than 3kg each in only 3m of water. A similar report came from Campbell Jones who fished off Bird Rock to also catch three nice snapper. Campbell fished the run-off from high tide on Sunday afternoon. Garry Holt anchored up on the Stingaree Bay spoil grounds on Monday evening to instantly catch a 4kg snapper. The next two hours were quiet until a frantic 60 minutes just after dark when he caught and released most of another seven snapper better than 2kg. Noel Henry fished the southern side of Wilson Spit where he found the snapper easy to locate on his sounder but they waited until just on dark to bite. Noel boated three big fish on fresh pilchards. Troy Van Der Hart trolled in five to 7m between Clifton Springs and Alcoa to catch quality fish in each of his past three outings. Rapala Taildancers were his lure of choice. Snapper were also being from the deep water off St Leonards. The 20m line was productive, with bag-limit captures common at first light.

TYPICALLY NICE: Ethan Middleton with a typical trevally from Corio Bay, left, and Ash Rawlings with a pair of nice bream from the Barwon River estuary. The sheer numbers of pike in the bays have been unbelievable. Trolling small bibbed lures anywhere along the inshore grass beds attracted constant hook-ups, with light tackle best. Anglers confined to the shore should try North Shore rocks on any of the evening low tides with small, metal baitfishprofile lures. Bruce Wallace has been hitting the

whiting off St Leonards with new but yetto-be-released whiting worms, an artificial bait that has been out-fishing conventional baits and due to be available soon. Squid anglers found their quarry on the grass beds between Clifton Springs and Pelican Shores. Small natural-coloured jigs were best, with the best results in less than 3m. Edwards Point and Duck Island pro-

duced bigger squid, some over 2kg and taken on similar jibs. Daniel Palmer trolled The Rip area for plenty of salmon on deep-diving lures. Most were under 1kg but some reached 1.5kg. Snapper and gummy shark were taken offshore in 20m to 30m on squid baits. Surf anglers took snapper and whiting

from the rock platforms along the coast. Salmon also made regular appearances inside Corio Bay at St Helens, North Shore rocks and the grammar school lagoon. Early morning or the evenings were best. Trevally were taken in the Barwon River estuary on the run-up to high tide and in Queenscliffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cut around slack water. More than 220 children participated in Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ron Nelson Fishing Clinic at North Geelongâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Seagull Lake, with good numbers of rainbow trout landed on owerbait, worms and corn. The Barwon River in Geelong remained discoloured, forcing anglers to work hard to find redfin. Any of the running water locations should produce a few fish, with Breakwater and Buckley Falls presently viable options for anglers using lures. The onset of warmer weather should make Lake Tooliorook fantastic for anyone looking to catch a feed of redfin. Fish to over 1kg were caught on vibe-style lures in the past week, with vibing best practices from a boat in the open expanses of the lake. This weekendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s afternoon tides should be perfect for catching bream and trevally from the Barwon River estuary. Bait choice is critical, with fresh bait, such as shrimp, bass yabby, sandworm and crab, returning the best results. Snapper anglers will have perfect tides for Clifton Springs to Geelong if they fish the afternoon high tide running off toward dark. Anglers should be prepared to fish after dark because the best recent results have been coming just after sunset. Send reports and photos to info@ raylongtackle.com.au or visit Brian at Ray Longâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Fishing World, 105 Shannon Ave, Manifold Heights.

you want to build? The square metre area of a home can be measured in different ways. Some builders include decks, eaves, patios or cobbled areas. Is it just a porch and floor slab area? Does the builder provide a comprehensive design consultation service including a professional colour consultant and other specialists as required? Will the builder provide modern visual design aids and access to professional designers to help ensure you achieve the ideal plan for your needs? Will the builder help you ascertain there are specific requirements or restrictions regarding your homeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s location on the section and whether there are any protective covenants? Will the builder ensure your house plan will meet all council standards relating to yard sizes, height-to-boundary measurements, service courts, boundary setbacks and site coverage? Will the builder advise whether your section has specific requirements, such as an engineerdesigned foundation, special reinforcement or treatment due to high winds zone or proximity to the coast, anti-termite treatments, or storm/foul weather disposal systems? Are colour selections conducted locally? Are changes to standard plus accepted without resistance and large penalties? Is the quote comprehensive in its inclusions and is it easy to understand? Has the builder explained what is not included? Are the standard foundation design costs covered? Some builders often treat even simple excavations and earthworks as extras. Has provision been made for any soil tests that may be required? If the builderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s contract or quote includes any provisional sums, do you understand what they do and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t cover? Is the quote a fixed cost?

Can the builder provide written testimonials from past clients? Does the builder offer compensation if they are over construction time (liquidation damages) and is it a fixed quick build time? Does the builder have a dedicated construction co-ordinator who will personally manage all subtrades on your site, keep you informed of progress and answer any questions you may have? Does the builder have a structured business with the systems and back-up to manage the construction of your home in an orderly, professional manner? Does the builder have the support of a large national and international franchise network? Can you speak directly to the actual registered builder who is actually responsible for your new home construction? Does the builder acquire homeownerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s warranty insurance from a large reputable insurer?

Simple steps such as getting a soil test on the land where the home is to be built is critical to provid-

Styling up with Verona

Finished to the highest standard, the Verona is welcoming and embracing.

G.J. Gardner Homes’ Verona design rounds out years of collaboration to deliver a beautiful and innovative display home. On display at Bendigo’s McIvor Forest Estate, Junortoun, the Verona follows the award-winning Moondarra and popular Ferrara designs. As an example of what G.J. Gardner Homes can mean to clients, the Verona leaves nothing to the imagination. Finished to the highest standard, the Verona is welcoming and embracing. And because G.J. Gardner means better-built homes, buyers can rest easy knowing their new home will last the test of time. Bendigo/Gisborne directors Danny Breen and Kris Gill say interest in the Verona has been high since it opened for inspection in March. “We love it – it’s got everything our buyers have daydreamed about as well as some new touches that really make the Verona stand out,” Mr Breen says. “Everyone we know has been looking forward to this one, so we worked really hard to design and build a display home that would get people excited about the options for family living that G.J. Gardner homes provide.” Mr Gill, a master builder, says his tight-knit team of local tradespeople created an amazing display of what’s possible with G.J. Gardner Homes. “Four beds, a study, a classy top-ofthe-range kitchen – it’s all there. “We have a walk-in pantry and a spacious master retreat, an ultra-modern en suite with a free-standing bath, timber floors and stackable doors to the outdoor entertaining area. We’re genuinely happy with the workmanship and creativity that went into this display home.” The Verona is open midday to 5pm daily at 22 McConnell Dve, Junortoun.
