LISTEN UP Innovative project looks to create a sense of community among towns in Coryule Ward

BY ALISON MARTIN DO YOU know the story behind the paddlesteamer wreck at Indented Head or the legend of the ghost in the Grand Hotel cellar? Historical, fascinating, funny and quirky tales of the Coryule Ward – including Portarlington, Indented Head and St Leonards – are now being gathered for Murmur on the Bellarine. Murmur is a global community-focused initiative which started in Canada and has spread across the world, with Geelong the first city in Australia to introduce the ‘ears’ followed now by the Bellarine. Murmur on the Bellarine spokesperson, Stephen

Surf Forecast

Oakes, said the concept involved recording stories told by local community members relating to specific public locations on the Bellarine and then accessing the stories at each location via your mobile phone. He said at each designated location, a green ear Murmur sign, with a telephone number and a sixdigit location code indicated stories were available at the site. Visitors and locals can then use their mobile phone to SMS the number on the sign, wait for a call back and listen to the menu to choose their stories. He said stories would also be available on the Murmur website, but the idea of listening to the

stories at the location they related to was a key part of the project. The initiative aims to encourage people to “develop a new intimacy with places and the physical experience of hearing a story in its actual setting – of hearing the walls talk – brings uncommon knowledge to common space, and brings people closer to the real histories that make up their world”. Oakes said Portarlington was the first town on the Bellarine to be included and he urged any local people with a memory or story about people, places or anything of interest around the town to contact the Murmur group.

“We organise a time and I will come and record the story at the location. People can send in their own recording but it has to be really good audio quality so I’m happy to do the recording,” he said. “It doesn’t have to be scripted, and we want people of all ages; it doesn’t have to be an old memory, it could be a young person with a story about the local skatepark.” Oakes suggested that although Murmur sites would be determined by stories, the first ‘ear’ could be located at Portarlington’s historic rotunda. To have your story included in the Murmur project, contact CoGG arts and culture officer, Ross Mueller, on 5272 4703.

GMHBA Tour of Geelong road cycling classic

Editor Nathan Hale editor@bellarinetimes.com.au

THE GMHBA Tour of Geelong road cycling classic gets underway later this month and the Bellarine Peninsula will again feature in the sixstage race. Portarlington will host the individual men’s and women’s time trial, which incorporates the Victorian Open Road Championships, on Friday, August 13 from 10am to 2.30pm. The start and finish line will be at WG Little Reserve on the Esplanade, between Pier and Fisher Street, so this will be the best spot for locals to watch the race. The 20km time trial course also takes in St Leonards and Indented Head. Gale force winds forced the cancellation of the Portarlington stage of the race last year, so hopefully we can turn on the weather this year for the hundreds of cyclists from Australia and overseas. Cycling is a booming sport and recreational activity and this event is a great opportunity for local people to see some of our nation’s best cyclists in action. As well as being an important major event in its own right, the Geelong Tour will be a fantastic lead in event for the 2010 UCI Road World Championships, being held in Geelong in September and October.

to Drysdale. Starts at 8.30am. • 17km from Drysdale to Queenscliff. Starts at 9.45am. The Bellarine Rail Trail Run is free to enter and it’s certainly not a race – it’s all about encouraging people to get active and have fun. Plus the Bellarine Rail Trail is a very picturesque spot to go for a run. Last year around 150 people took part in the run and organisers are hoping for more to take part this year. To register phone Brett Coleman on 0438 434 260 or visit www.brtrun.com.au Entries close on August 21 at 5pm.

Portarlington rotunda restoration

Works are almost finished to restore Portarlington’s historic rotunda. We’re planning

to launch the fully restored rotunda later this month. It’s very fitting that we’ll get to reopen the fully restored rotunda almost 100 years to the day since its original opening. We have even managed to locate the speech given back in August 1910. The next step will be the redevelopment of the Portarlington Town Square. The tender is about to awarded for this project, which includes landscaping, paving, new lighting, terraces and seating. The redevelopment will also create better pedestrian linkages to the Pier and Newcombe Street. Works are expected to start in the coming months. These works will complement the proposed Portarlington Safe Harbour Project. Cr John Mitchell, Mayor, City of Greater Geelong

Coastcare group formed THE FIRST Coastcare group on the Bellarine has been formed by an enthusiastic group of volunteers who have recognised the need to actively protect the coastal environment. The new Ocean Grove-based Coastcare group has been created by students from Deakin University, Gordon TAFE and local schools, with the support of coastal-conscious community members. Department of Sustainability and Environment senior Coast Action-Coastcare facilitator, Joanne

Ludbrook, said the first activity organised by the group to encourage the community to take a fresh approach to caring for their coast would be a free film night this week at Ocean Grove’s Piping Hot Chicken Shop. “To create interest in Coastcare and encourage local involvement the students have arranged the film night. Everyone is welcome and entry is free,� she said. “Message in the Waves is about the accumulation

of plastic rubbish on an Hawaiian island. It’s an inspiring film with a great message about caring for the coast and will appeal to surfers, swimmers and everyone who values our distinctive coastline. “After the film, there will be time for a general discussion and a chance to ask questions about the new group and plan the next community event. People can also join the group on the night or register future interest.� Ludbrook said the group hoped to link in with

the local surf club, other sports clubs and local businesses. “The new Coastcare group will bring together all ages in a partnership project between Ocean Grove residents, Barwon Coast Committee of Management and DSE’s Coast Action-Coastcare,� she said. Message in the Waves will be shown at the Piping Hot Chicken Shop this Thursday at 7.30pm. For more about the group and the film night, phone Joanne Ludbrook on 0411 262 868.

Local art on display

David Kerr’s ceramics and Pip Williams’ lino prints are on exhibition at Pip’s 135 Art Studio and Gallery.

DRYSDALE’S 135 Art Studio and Gallery was formally opened on Saturday, showcasing a diverse collection of works by local artisans. The gallery is the creation of Pip Williams, who recognised the need for a place on the Bellarine where artists could share their work. Pip said the purpose-built studio and gallery had been a project shared with her partner, Chris, over the last 12 months and had attracted wide interest from artists and the community, including school groups. As a self-taught lino print artist, Pip is focused on refining her own style and providing workshops to teach others the hand print techniques she has developed.

The 135 opening exhibition, officially launched by Point Lonsdale artist, Deb Brearley, features a range of Pip’s work and selected pieces featuring the talents of four other artists. Wire sculptures created by Drysdale’s Pat O’Connell, melon baskets and feature pieces hand woven from natural fibre by St Leonards’ Annette Nichols, Japanese-style ink brush paintings by Lauren Leviston from St Leonards and rustic ceramic works by David Kerr are all currently on exhibition. Pip plans to host regular exhibitions at the gallery at 135 Andersons Road, Drysdale and information on workshops is available by phoning 5253 3461.

LEOPOLD Primary School staff, students and friends are preparing for next month’s Family Fun Festa – so circle your calendar and plan a visit on September 4. There will be many events, activities and entertainment, including the new ‘green fingers’ stall which will be introduced for the first time. Students have been growing plants from seed, separating and replanting seedlings and nurturing a

variety of vegetables, herbs, succulents and flowers, in the school’s own nursery. The garden initiative has enabled students to grow their own herbs and vegetables, which they harvest, prepare and enjoy at school. Students experiment with a range of gardening techniques to grow strawberries, potatoes, silver beet, snowpeas, broad beans, carrots and they have even picked their own apples this year. New ‘no-dig’ garden boxes will be introduced soon, as they explore alternative ways to grow and

learn valuable skills in the garden and the kitchen. To assist the school with its green fingers stall, the community is encouraged to donate spare four-inch plastic pots, plants or cuttings by contacting Rita Nolen at the school or phone 5250 1233. Leopold Primary School’s Family Fun Festa 2010 will be proudly sponsored by local businesses including the Leopold Community Bank and the Bellarine Times. More information on the annual school event will be available in next week’s Bellarine Times.

Club a boost for the aged

A great excuse to go shopping THURSDAY is your chance to treat yourself to some retail therapy while supporting the Geelong Hospital’s Children’s Ward. Portarlington fashion and accessories boutique, Montana’s, is hosting a ‘Breast pumps for our babes day’ on Thursday to raise money to purchase essential breast pumps for the children’s ward. Montana’s owner, Sandy Hillman, said the Bellarine community is invited to visit the store, enjoy a glass of bubbly and all profits from their purchases will be donated to Geelong Hospital. “We will also be selling cookbooks produced by the hospital for $10 each, to raise more much-needed funds,” she said. The special fundraiser is a unique way to support the region’s healthcare provider and the many babies and families who have benefitted and continue to rely on the quality care at Geelong Hospital.

IN A meeting with the Federal Minister for Veteran Affairs, Alan Griffin, the Ocean Grove RSL demonstrated how it is taking a leadership role in the community and safeguarding its future The meeting – hosted by Federal Member for Corangamite, Darren Cheeseman, and held at the RSL’s new home at Club Grove – looked at ensuring the branch’s long term role as it seeks to continue to support local veterans. Club Grove Ocean Grove Bowling Club is undergoing a $5million refurbishment and its community focus will incorporate a lounge and meeting space for the local RSL group while providing them with a space to house memorabilia. This will be a vast improvement to the aged facilities that the RSL was previously housed in. Ocean Grove RSL secretary, Brigadier David Gilroy said the merger with the bowling club was a good fit. “The bowling club wanted to become more than just a bowling club, they wanted to become a community club,” Gilroy said. With the deterioration of the former RSL club house, Gilroy was aware that a new residence was imminent. He said that the previous residence was “very ordinary” and that there were no funds available to be spent on it. Since the amalgamation there has been an increase in memberships. “The memberships have increased from 105 RSL members to 142,” Gilroy said. “With increased memberships we are able to expand our welfare base and look after the ageing community on the Bellarine Peninsula.” The minister fielded a range of questions from the veterans, ranging from financial pension enquires to training schemes. The group felt that the meeting was edifying and were grateful of the extended amount of time that Minister Griffin was able to spend with the RSL and Bowls Club delegates.

Visitor centre recognised BOROUGH of Queenscliffe mayor, Bob Merriman, believes the local Visitor Information Centre is a deserving winner of its regional business award and plays a key role in assisting both tourists and business operators. The centre was a recipient of a regional business excellence award, sponsored by the Bendigo Community Bank. QVIC manager, Maree Greenwood, said the prestigious award reflected the work provided by the

dedicated and passionate team of volunteers at centre. The award recognises the critical role its volunteers play in promoting tourism in Queenscliff and Point Lonsdale. “They are the ambassadors of the borough, its tourism-related businesses and the council,� she said. “The QVIC’s primary role is to provide a firstclass information service to visitors, support local tourism enterprises and to maximise the contribu-

tion of tourism to the local economy. “Tourism is by far the most significant activity in the borough, accounting for at least 45 per cent of the local economy and contributes to the viability of over 220 local businesses.� Merriman said the QVIC did “a fantastic job�. “Council is always impressed by the energy and willingness to go the extra step and appreciate our volunteers’ willingness to give back to the people that visit our wonderful borough,� he said.

“We also want to recognise the family and friends of the centre’s 25 volunteer staff who support them in their voluntary roles.� Funded by the Borough of Queenscliffe, the QVIC opened as a level two accredited centre in 2002 and is the only accredited centre on the Bellarine. The QVIC serviced 58,400 walk-in visitors last year who spent an estimated $5million throughout the borough.

Fabulous fiesta fun ANIMALS, live music, kids’ activities and delicious food will combine for a great family day out at Queenscliff Primary School next week. The school will host the free ‘Fabulous Fun Fiesta’ on Saturday, August 14 from 1pm-4pm. There will be music with Sarah Carroll, cuddly animals, jumping castle, face painting, art and craft, sports and games and delicious food. The innovative primary school will also share its ‘green screen technology’ and children will be invited to join in television studio fun and take home a DVD recording their acting skills as a memento of the day. Queenscliff Primary School princi-

pal, Peter Martella, said the fiesta would also provide a great opportunity for the Bellarine community to visit the school and see its facilities. “With 40 students, three teachers and a principal the school is able to offer an excellent teacher-to-student ratio and this is reflected in the children’s success, both academically and personally,� he said. “Situated next to beautiful Swan Bay this school is something of a hidden secret. “Although we have students from around the peninsula, there are probably many others who don’t even know we are here.� For more information on the school and the Fabulous Fun Fiesta, phone Peter Martella on 5258 1696.

Federal Member for Corangamite, Darren Cheeseman, officially opened Queenscliff Primary School’s Environmental Learning Centre last month. The specialist environmental education space, funded under the Federal Government’s Building the Education Revolution programme, features two classrooms, storage space and a facilities which enable the school to extend its focused environmental studies.

Trail needs funding FEDERAL or State Government funding will be sought to take Queenscliff foreshore’s ferry to pier walking trail from its current planning stage to completion. The coastal walking trail, boardwalks and viewing decks will provide an added attraction for the local community and visitors, linking the ferry car park with Princess Park and its new playspace. The formalisation of the walking trail with the creation of a gravel path will also protect the dunes and vegetation from damage cause by people making their own tracks along the foreshore area. Revegetation of the

dunes and protection of bird nesting habitat will be a priority, with boardwalks installed to enhance the trail while separating pedestrians and pets from the restoration works. The proposed viewing decks will feature seating to create the perfect place to enjoy the seascape and boating activity. The Borough of Queenscliffe is hoping local politicians will see the environmental and community benefit of the project and consider the funding of the trail as an election commitment. BIG4 Beacon Resort manager, Lisa Shapter, and Destination Bellarine’s Emma Keith.

Huge jump in accommodation FAMILY-FRIENDLY accommodation available in classic Queenscliff has grown by 74 per cent over the past 12 months, with the two BIG4 parks playing a large part in the expansion. Geelong Otway Tourism executive director, Roger Grant, said the growth equated to an increase of 26,644 guest nights in the region. “That’s just fantastic news for the Bellarine as a tourist destination and for families wanting an affordable holiday in one of the prettiest parts of our state,� he said. “The new BIG4 Bellarine Holiday Park and BIG4 Beacon Resort in Queenscliff have accounted for most of the 74 per cent increase.� BIG4 Beacon Resort’s Lorraine Golightly said that as well as enjoying the new facilities, visitors were also extending the length

A day for the horses DRYSDALE Leopold Pony Club – along with other equine owners across the southern hemisphere – celebrated the birthday of their horses and ponies on Sunday, August 1. The equine birthday party at Drysdale’s Lake Lorne Reserve was also the first major fundraiser for the club’s new water jump complex on the cross country course. Club member, Megan Hall, said the new water jump was necessary for the club to continue hosting its annual horse trials event, which attracted competitors from all over Victoria. All proceeds from the event went to the major project for the club, with local families and Horseland Geelong donating treats for horses and prizes for their owners.

The pony club’s junior committee also provided an opportunity for all riders to win a special birthday treat for their ponies at the ‘birthday bonanza lucky dip’, held during the lunchtime break. “We have a fantastic bunch of kids who are very dedicated to their sport and a great committee made up of volunteer parents and helpers who eagerly get behind anything and everything for the club,” Megan said. The Drysdale Leopold Pony Club is urging any local businesses that would like to support the club’s project to construct the new water complex to contact the pony club district commissioner, Fiona Conroy, on 0407 345 718 for further details about sponsorship opportunities.

Teens aim for new target DRYSDALE’S Blaise White and his cousin, Zac Dodds, have surpassed their $10,000 fundraising target and set themselves a new goal of reaching $15,000 by September 19. The teenagers will walk 400 kilometres next month to raise money for the Australian Cancer Research Foundation and the Andrew Love Centre in memory of their grandfather, Alex Dodds, who passed away last year from pancreatic cancer. They had planned to raise $10,000 but overwhelming community support from the Bellarine and Geelong community has enabled them to aim higher. Blaise and Zac’s trek from Drysdale to Tocumwal has received great support and Prestige Jayco Geelong has donated a motorhome for them to use on the two-week walk. The motorhome will be driven by Blaise’s father, Phil, with support from Blaise’s mum, Kerryn, and

Zac’s parents, Colin and Julie, who have proudly provided encouragement and support with a range of fundraisers. The most recent event was an open mic at the Potato Shed on Friday night, which further boosted the boys’ fundraising tally. They will dedicate the walk to their grandfather and everyone who has suffered from or is battling cancer. Blaise and Zac will walk eight to nine hours a day, leaving from The Zoo café at Drysdale at 11am on Sunday, September 19 after a farewell breakfast. The pair are planning to walk into Tocumwal at 5pm on September 29, with their grandmother joining them for the last three kilometres of the walk. For further information on the walk, phone Kerryn White on 0407 743 376 or email alexdoddswalk4acure@hotmail.com DLPC Member, Chelsea Farrugia says ‘happy birthday’ to her pony, Minnie, with a kiss.

Ring Road remains on track

Rare breed of birthday party

THE GEELONG Ring Road continues to take shape with State Member for South Barwon, Michael Crutchfield, last week announcing another important milestone in the construction phase. Last Friday, traffic was temporarily switched onto a one kilometre section of the new southbound lanes, beyond the Anglesea Road. “Today we have passed an important milestone in the Geelong Ring Road project a traffic switch to the Ring Road Section 4A, the $125million Angelsea Road Link,” Crutchfield said. Traffic will be switched onto the section of the new southbound lanes, beyond the Anglesea Road roundabout through to Hams Road. This traffic switch will allow earthworks and major construction to continue for the northbound lanes. An existing section of Anglesea Road will be converted to a service road for adjacent properties. “In coming months roadwork speed limits will apply with temporary traffic lights operating during work hours to allow safe access for construction vehicles in and out of the work site,” Crutchfield said. The bridge over Princes Highway is on track for completion by the end of the year, with associated works scheduled to continue into 2011. Once completed, drivers on the Ring Road travelling to Anglesea and beyond will be able to travel on the new link, with the overpass of the Princes Highway separating through traffic from local traffic. In coming month’s works will also start on Section 4B, the westerly extension of the Ring Road, five kilometres from Anglesea Road to the Princes Highway at Draytons Road.

Anglesea’s Harry Vitkus is The Reptile Man. The 11-year-old has started a quirky new business bringing reptiles to kids’ parties.

HARRY Viktus was barely walking when he “fell in love” with animals. Now the 11-year-old Anglesea boy has turned his passion for creepy crawlies and rare reptiles into a business. The Reptile Man, as he calls himself, attends children’s birthday parties, giving kids an interactive show with his friendly menagerie. Harry’s quirky approach has already seen him host a handful of parties. “I just love animals. I always have, for as long as I can remember. I started doing this because I wanted to share my love for them with other people,” he said. Harry brings to the party a juvenile python, green tree frogs and blue tongue lizards and teaches the crowd how to handle and care for

the creatures. “The animals always make the kids happy,” he said. Harry first “fell for” reptiles when he attended a similar party at age two. “Mum reckons I just went crazy over the animals, asking heaps of questions and from then on I was hooked,” he said. Harry charges $40 per party, which includes the show as well as a small gift for the birthday child, who is star of the day. “The animals are totally safe and the kids love it. The frogs are always really fun,” he said. The Reptile Man requires a three- to fourmetre indoor space to conduct his presentation and all children will have the opportunity to get up close and personal with Harry’s special pets.

Midwife launches bid for Corangamite APOLLO Bay midwife and nurse, SallyAnne Brown, last week announced her candidacy for the seat of Corangamite. In launching her campaign, Brown said she is aiming to give a voice to Australian women who have lost maternity services. Recently, 11 of the 13 midwives servicing Corangamite have been forced

to cease their practices, and Brown is one of only two remaining midwives to service an area of nearly 8,000-square kilometres. Apart from campaigning primarily on maternity services reform, Brown is also focusing on a strong social, environmental and health policy

Portarlington Focus

Tuesday 3 August 2010

Festival’s timely boost “The Bendigo Community Bank was happy to provide the funds and we now have these bright colourful banners to display in the town before the festival on October 30,� she said. “We would like to publicly acknowledge the Bendigo Bank’s continuing support of the garden club and look forward to hearing from anyone who is prepared to display the banners.�

Debutantes and their partners at Portarlington’s first Twenty Ten Ball.

Unveiling one of the new banners promoting Portarlington Pelargonium Festival were (from left) Portarlington and District Garden Club secretary, Judy Margolis, club member Kylie McCormick, Bendigo Community Bank manager Ian Faulkner, club member Alf Burke, Signs on the Move’s Graeme Dunn, club president Rita Oliver and member Barrie Lefever.

TRADITION returned to Portarlington last month with the inaugural Twenty Ten Debutante Ball hosted by Church by the Bay. The event was attended by 15 debutantes and their partners, along with more than 350 family and friends at Parks Hall in Portarlington. Church by the Bay pastor, David Rock, said after 12 weeks of rehearsals the ball was held “with grace and ease�. “The theme of the night was taken from the Phantom of the Opera. The debutantes’ dramatic entrance saw them wearing masks, which they removed as they entered to reveal their faces,� he said. With white dresses and black tails, the debutantes and their partners were presented to David and wife, Julie Rock and Rob Evans, of Youth Foundation Victoria. “The debutante set showcased five dances, including the Tango and the Samba, with the sixth dance of the evening being performed by the debutantes with their special friend or parent.� Funding was provided by the Youth Foundation of Victoria, Greater City of Geelong, Church by the Bay, Bellarine Peninsula Community Bank, and the Victorian Government.

THE GROWING popularity of the Portarlington Pelargonium Festival has received a further boost with a grant to assist publicity of the Bellarine’s gardening event. Bendigo Community Bank has provided $550 in funding to the Portarlington and District Garden Club for the creation of two large promotional banners.

Garden club secretary, Judy Margolis, said the two large banners had been designed and made by Graeme Dunn from Signs on the Move, and the club was looking for prominent locations at the entrances to Portarlington to hang them. She said the club was interested in any properties where the banners could be hung and would be highly visible to locals and visitors.

Debutante ball a success

Tis the season‌ PORTARLINGTON Neighbourhood House hosted a Christmas in July event last month and raised more than $2,400. The funds will go towards urgently-needed heating and cooling at the popular community hub in Brown Street. While the many local residents who attend courses, classes and regular group gatherings have been arriving prepared during weekdays with scarves and coats, evening classes have been postponed until warmer weather. The neighbourhood house has no heating and the decision to cancel parts of the programme was made to address the health and wellbeing of participants. Classes at night are expected to re-start in the warmer weather, but the neighbourhood house committee is hoping to attract enough funding to install heating and cooling as soon as possible.

Joining the garden party were Friends of Ann Nichol House member Monica Sweatman, BCH project manager Chris Fogaty, resident Kevin Wagstaff, BCH’s Sandi Patterson and resident, Jack Dunstan.

A garden for everyone

THE COMMUNITY garden at Portarlington’s Ann Nichol House has been formally opened with a celebration involving gardeners of all ages. The garden, which includes raised, no-dig garden boxes and seating which can be easily accessed by concreted paths, has been created by residents and staff at Bellarine Community Health. BCH chief executive, John Fendyk, said the construction of the garden had been assisted with a $2,500 grant from Bendigo Community Bank and a $5,000 State Trustees grant. The official opening was attended by supporters: State Trustees’ representative, Kirsten Smith, Portarlington Community Bank manager, Ian

Faulkner, BCH staff, Ann Nichol House residents, Friends of Ann Nichol House, Portarlington Garden Club members and Portarlington Primary School students. Garden-loving residents Val Howard, Jack Dunstan and Kevin Wagstaff, who have been involved in the design and creation of the garden, cut the ribbon to officially open the new recreational area. BCH staff and residents are encouraging local garden club members and school children to continue their ‘hands-on’ assistance with the garden, including replanting and other ongoing tasks.

THE LIBERAL Party has promised to improve and expand the existing Education Tax Rebate to help families with the costs of their children’s education if successful at this month’s federal election. Liberal candidate for Corangamite, Sarah Henderson, said the coalition would increase the rebate to up to $500 per year per child in primary school, up from the current $390 rebate. “Eligible parents will be able to claim a 50 per cent rebate for up to $1,000 of education-related expenses for each child in primary school,” Henderson said. “The Coalition would also increase the rebate to up to $1,000 per year per child in secondary school, up from Labor’s $779. “Eligible parents will be able to claim a 50 per cent rebate for up to $2,000 of educationrelated expenses for each child in secondary school.” The pre-election promise also included a significant expansion of the types of expenses to which the rebate would apply. Under the Coalition, eligible expenses will include: school fees, school camps and excursions, special education costs for children with disabilities, extra-curricular activities such as music, dance or drama lessons, tutoring costs, musical instruments required for lessons, school photos, sporting fees and equipment. The Coalition has stated the expanded rebate would start from January 1, 2011 if it is elected to government. “This means that eligible parents will be able to claim the rebate for expenses incurred for the next school year,” Henderson said.

Walk for the homeless

A COMMUNITY walk to raise awareness of homelessness throughout the Bellarine, Surf Coast and Greater Geelong regions has been launched. The event – known as Walking Home – will happen on November 13 this year along the Bellarine Rail Trail from Queenscliff to Geelong, with different start points along the trail for participants of all fitness levels. City of Greater Geelong Mayor, John Mitchell, said Walking Home was a chance for the community to come together and “walk the talk” about homelessness. “Homelessness is a tragic situation for anyone, and sadly it is more common than most people realise,” he said. CoGG community development portfolio holder, councillor Kylie Fisher, said the event will help to bring the plight of homeless people to the community. “Walking Home is all about raising

awareness so that the wider population understands the complexities and causes of homelessness in Australia, and more specifically in our region,” she said. “Hopefully the increased understanding and awareness will lead to communities being better equipped and more willing to reach out and help those in need of shelter.” Patron for the event, Frank Costa endorsed last year’s event as “an inspiring initiative that brings together service providers and communities across the Barwon South Western Region”. Costa urged everyone throughout the region to support Walking Home 2010. Last year’s event raised more than $20,000 towards shoes for homeless people in the region. For more information, visit www. City of Greater Geelong community development portfolio holder, Kylie Fisher, (left) and Kardinia Men's Service's Kez Holub get ready walkinghome.org.au for the walk with their daughters, Abbey and Zoe.

Stars back bike safe campaign

EVERYONE’S favourite Geelong forward, James Podsiadly, and former Cats’ star Billy Brownless have thrown their support behind the Bike Safe ‘Share the Road’ campaign. The campaign – which aims to promote better behaviour by cyclists and motorists, encouraging everyone to obey the road rules and to show courtesy and respect – was officially launched late last month. Podsiadly, who is a keen advocate for health and

fitness, was keen to point out the benefits of cycling, and said the initiative would help to promote riding among the community. “Regular exercise, like cycling, improves cardio vascular fitness and can reduce the risk of diseases,” he said. “Cycling is low impact on the body, helps muscle tone, improves bone mass and helps with personal weight management. “Making our roads safer and improving behaviour

by all road users to one another, clearly encourages cyclists of all ages. “People need to show a little patience and goodwill. Hopefully the authorities are doing their bit to improve our on-road infrastructure as well. Every little bit helps along the way.” The ‘Share the Road’ campaign also highlights that under the road rules, bicycles are considered to be vehicles and have a right to be on the roads. Cyclists are legally allowed to ride two abreast and

at roundabouts may occupy the whole lane. In turn, cyclists must also obey all the road rules and ride responsibly. In addition, both motorists and cyclists must not use a hand held mobile phone whilst driving or cycling. The Bike Safe group was formed as a result of recent increases in poor behaviour towards cyclists, accidents and fatalities involving cyclists and motorists. Last year there were six cycling fatalities in Victoria – with two of those in our region.

Coalition pledge for Colac A FEDERAL Coalition government will commit $1.8million for student doctor accommodation at Colac Hospital, Liberal candidate for Corangamite, Sarah Henderson, announced last week. The pledge comes as the countdown to the August 21 federal election continues. “The project comprises three high-quality units that will encourage students to fulfil their placement obligations at Colac Hospital,� Henderson (pictured) said. “Once a student doctor has established a connection with the region they are more likely to return to Colac to fill the health professional positions this community so desperately needs. “From the outset I have supported Colac Area Health’s push to gain $1.8million of Federal Government funding to build accommodation units for 14 students – medical students, nursing students and other allied health professionals such as physiotherapists and welfare workers. “I am delighted a Coalition Government will deliver on

this commitment. “This will be of great benefit to the community and will serve as the only comprehensive student accommodation for trainee doctors and allied heath professionals in the region. “This funding is very important because it will help to combat doctor shortages throughout the Colac region, both in the short term and the long term.� The announcement follows a series of meetings between Sarah Henderson and Colac Area Health and a recent visit by the Federal Shadow Minister for Health, Peter Dutton. Colac Area Health has previously applied for Federal Government funding for the facility but was unsuccessful. “Doctor shortages in the Colac Otway region is a very big issue,� Henderson said. “The need for this accommodation is abundantly clear. It will nurture the next generation of doctors and other health professionals who will provide care to Colac and surrounding communities for many years to come.�

Barwon Health unveils five-year plan BARWON Health chief executive officer, Dr David Ashbridge, last week hosted a community forum to introduce the organisation’s five-year strategic plan. The forum – held at the Royal Geelong Yacht Club – gave the community an opportunity to hear Barwon Health’s bold approach to providing firstclass health care over the next five years and beyond. The new strategic outlook, dubbed ‘at the heart of change’, took into account the views of staff, the board and the wider community when considering

and compiling the plan. The strategic direction of Barwon Health and the values the organisation were discussed at the forum, while the presentation also focused on a commitment to managing the prevalence of chronic disease in the community. So far the strategic plan has been rolled out to staff at six of Barwon Health’s major sites and at a business breakfast held last month. Dr Ashbridge said he was looking forward to showcasing the new strategic direction to

the community. “The Barwon Health 2010-15 Strategic Plan has been formed with particular emphasis on our five important values,� he said. “The new values govern the way in which we relate with and care for our patients, our partners and the wider community across the Barwon region. “This forum gives us an opportunity to share our future goals and plans with the wider community and showcase that Barwon Health is much more than an acute hospital.

Cheeseman slams Coalition pledge

Walking for awareness Ex-Surf Coast Shire chief executive officer, Peter Bollen, is calling Surf coasters to help raise awareness and funds for Parkinsons.

BY ELEANOR WOODS

PETER Bollen knows how crippling Parkinsons disease can be. When he was at his most ill, he could barely sit and hold a conversation. The former Surf Coast Shire chief executive officer said that downing close to 30 tablets a day couldn’t stifle the illness and that simple things became mammoth tasks for the active community member. “It took me some time to speak openly about having Parkinsons. I guess I was embarrassed and did not want to appear vulnerable,� Bollen said. Now, having had deep brain stimulation surgery

to negate incorrect messages that the Parkinsonsaffected brain sends, the 50-year-old has learned to live with the disease and is helping others do so too. More than a decade on from his diagnosis, Bollen is an ambassador for Parkinsons Victoria and is encouraging Surf Coast residents to support fundraising and awareness initiatives. Bollen is taking part in the Uniting Walk on Sunday, August 29 in Melbourne, and invites all to join in the walk for awareness. Designed for individuals to raise funds to help the fight against Parkinsons, the walk has a symbolic meaning as sufferers of the disease experience movement disorder.

The four0kilometre walk on paved footpaths along the Yarra River in Melbourne begins at 11am and costs entrants $25. The highest individual fundraiser for the event will win a gold service trip for two on the Indian Pacific between Perth and Sydney (either way) and anyone who raises more than $250 will go into the draw to win a trip for two to Hawaii. Money raised goes towards supporting those living with Parkinsons and helping find a cure for the disease. To register for the walk, visit www.unitywalk. com.au or do so on the day at Federation Square from 8.30am.

THE FULL impact of Tony Abbott’s proposal to cut after hours health services has been revealed, according to Member for Corangamite, Darren Cheeseman. Cheeseman said Abbott has pledged to cut the 24-hour GP helpline from July next year if the Coalition wins power, and that will have an effect on services. “In Victoria, Tony Abbott’s cuts to after hours GP services mean cutting around 41,200 GP after hour services and 146,900 nurse triage services,� Cheeseman said. “Tony Abbott’s cuts to after hours services would mean that a family whose child wakes up sick at night will be more likely to need to turn to our local emergency department. “People visiting the area would not be able to call one national number for help and be linked with GP services in an unfamiliar place, so they would go to the emergency department as well – putting more pressure on our local hospital.� Cheeseman said the Labor government is investing $417million to improve after hours care through a 24-hour helpline that can provide health advice over the phone. The 24-hour helpline would be able to link Australians needing urgent attention with a GP or nurse at any time of the day or night – including on weekends. Cheeseman said that as Health Minister, Abbott cut $1billion from Australia’s public hospitals and contributed to the doctor shortage across the country by capping GP training places. “Tony Abbott has made it clear he will make more cuts to the health and hospitals services that Australians rely on,� Cheeseman said.

Retirement village planning BY LEANNE POCOCK of the Investment Banking Institute THE THOUGHT of entering a retirement village is daunting for most people. Questions arise about independence, mortality, friendships lost and other personal matters. Good research should be undertaken before a move has to take place in order to overcome the wealth of matters that need attention to at that time. The retirement village industry is highly regulated. Why? The reason is that people outside your family are dealing in family finances and

where there is money, there is the potential for fraud or mis-handling of funds. Families often think of retirement villages and retirement as the end-game of financial planning. The truth is that financial planning is undertaken so that you can retire and keep financially strong and this is known as the ‘withdrawal phase’. Today, there is no need to close a superannuation fund and buy investment products from life insurance companies (called annuities), as you can leave your superannuation savings in the super fund and draw them as required under certain rules. An increasing number of families are relying on

advice from the retirement villages on how best to structure finances before a member takes residence. The retirement village, however, looks at the finances from only one perspective. Banks and financial planners are becoming increasingly skilled in establishing plans. As soon as you start to feel that mum or dad needs to think about a move to a retirement village, then you need to get a financial plan in place with particular attention to an estate plan. That way, when they are ready to move, you have been able to assure them about their finances and that is one less worry for them in a time of change.

Market View with tracey watts Stimulus did not save us

THE SUCCESS or otherwise of fiscal stimulus as the saviour of the Australian economy has again created news this week. Noted economist and avid ‘Keynesian’, Joseph Stiglitz, was in Australia and lauded the success of the Australian government’s extraordinarily large fiscal stimulus. Extraordinarily large is perhaps an understatement. The OECD estimates that Australia’s stimulus package is the third largest behind the US and China. The 2009 Mid Year Economic and Fiscal Outlook figures, however, shows that additional spending doubles Australia’s stimulus – making it the world’s largest. The Stiglitz viewpoint is not universal. Tony Makin, professor of economics at Griffith University, disagrees wholeheartedly. With the enormous levels of private debt in our economy, the rapid reduction in interest rates from 7.25 per cent in March 2008 to 3 per cent in April 2009 had a dramatic impact on domestic consumption. Likewise, the free-fall in the Aussie dollar from 98 US cents in July 2008 to 60 US cents in October 2008, provided a cushioning for our economy that no government could engineer. The danger is, that when the next downturn arrives, political pressure will demand a new round of wasteful spending be implemented and Australia will end up further in the red

Victorian rental market update ACCORDING to the Real Estate Institute of Australia’s March Housing Affordability Report, Victorian rental homes are more affordable than in most other states and territories. The affordability of rents is determined by comparing the proportion of family income needed to meet median rental payments. In this year’s March quarter, 22.6 per cent of the average family income was required to meet the cost of a rental home in Victoria. This compares favourably to the most expensive state, Tasmania, where 29.4 per cent is required. In New South Wales 27.4 per cent is required and in Queensland, 24.9 per cent. There are only two states or territories where it is less expensive – Western Australia, where 21.9 per cent in required, and the ACT, where it’s a very affordable 16.6 per cent. In every state or territory other than the Northern Territory it is more affordable to own than rent a home. For instance, in Victoria 32.6 per cent of the average family income was required in the March quarter this year to meet loan repayments. The affordability comparison does, however, obscure the more difficult problem with renting a home in Victoria: the incredibly low vacancy rate. The vacancy rate remains unsustainably low for the same reason house prices have been increasing at an unsustainable rate: Victoria has far fewer homes than necessary to meet the needs of our growing population. The response of State and Federal Governments to this problem is correct: fund more affordable rental homes and increase the number of approvals granted. However, far more is needed.

Aireys Inlet proves a buyers’ favourite THE STANDING of Aireys Inlet as a haven for investors and holiday-makers continued to surge over the last 12 months, following recent data released by PRDnationwide. Aireys Inlet was the only non-metropolitan area to figure in the top 10 for growth in house prices over the past 12 months. During this period – measured from March 2009 to March 2010 – house prices rose a massive 41.1 per cent, with the median price now standing at $670,000. Jim Midgley, PRDnationwide managing director, said nine out of Victoria’s top 10 growth suburbs were located within 10 kilometres of the Melbourne CBD.

“Topping the list for best price growth was Kew – registering a whopping 52.8 per cent increase,” he said. PRDnationwide research analyst, Dan O’Halloran, who produced the report, said South Yarra recorded the second highest price growth of 47.2 per cent, followed by Albert Park (42.6 per cent) and Canterbury (42 per cent). “Bucking the inner-city trend for growth was Aireys Inlet,” O’Halloran said. The research shows seven of Victoria’s top 10 suburbs for median price growth recoded a median sale price figure greater than $1,000,000. “The majority of these suburbs also saw a major decline in median sale price throughout the market

downturn in 2008,” O’Halloran said. “This large slip, accompanied by a following spike in the median, has attributed significantly to the suburbs apparent soaring median sale price.” O’Halloran said as confidence began to return to the Victorian market, home buyers had taken advantage of the emergency low interest rates throughout last year, enticing them to spend more and buy in the higher price bracket real estate markets. The unit market outperformed the housing market, with Abbotsford achieving the highest growth rate, with a staggering 74.2 per cent growth in the median sale price throughout the 12 month period ending March 31 2010.

Call for interest rates to remain on hold THE BOSS of Australia’s largest independentlyowned mortgage broker believes the latest Australian Bureau of Statistics Consumer Price Index (CPI) strongly supports a hold to the cash rate for at least the September quarter. Michael Russell, chief executive officer of Mortgage Choice, said last week a rise in the CPI meant the Reserve Bank should maintain rates at their current level. Regarded as Australia’s key measure of inflation,

CPI rose 0.6 per cent in the June quarter 2010, lifting the annual rate to 3.1 per cent, only just outside the Reserve Bank of Australia’s target range. “The release of the Consumer Price Index shows core inflation is only nominally outside of the Reserve Bank’s two to three percent target band. With this, the bank has little reason to lift official interest rates at its August meeting,” Russell said. “Many Australian home owners, investors and buyers-to-be are still adjusting to recently increased

interest rates. Those who are looking to enter the market also have to combat rising housing prices plus stricter lending conditions. “Consumer sentiment is still volatile so the Reserve Bank needs to do all that it can to protect the positivity of Australians. “We cannot risk any deterioration in the confidence of everyday consumers and business owners, which will in turn have a negative effect on the economy.”

WRECK OF THE ‘JOSEPH H SCAMMELL’ CONT.: Extracts from ‘History of Torquay’ by James A Baines 1938 The deckhouse now assumed a new role. The history of the Joseph H Scammell, and the seaside cottage “Scammell House� in Pride St, Torquay. The scroll-work of the wrecked ship’s quarterdeck is retained as ornamentation on the verandah, and many fittings bear the ship’s inscriptions. The narrow door gives ingress and egress to the old saloon, the living room on the lower floor of this double decker cottage. Portholes provide light in the north & south walls. All available fittings and timbers were secured from the wreckage to fit out the cottage. Some relics were stolen, but the atmosphere of the ‘ Joseph H. Scammell ervades the building.

MARKET UPDATE

THE COMING MONTHS

PROPERTY REPORTS

We can again report excellent sales volumes & results from your dedicated sales team. A record land sale in Jan Juc & top results in home sales have been achieved over the cooler months. There has also been several exceptional sales in the rural area in and around Bellbrae / Bells Beach. The market remains buoyant across all sectors & we are seeing time on the market decreasing whilst prices across the board continue to escalate.

Stock levels have remained constant for the last few months after a dramatic drop in availabilities as we moved out of the effects of the GFC late 2009. Despite the cooler weather enquiry is strong though naturally numbers around town are down. As buyer confidence continues to improve we see further decreases in stock levels which can only impact positively on prices.

If you are considering selling we would be pleased to view your property at a time convenient to yourselves and provide a current market appraisal and report. Our report will include recent sales, availabilities, market conditions and options for marketing and selling programs.

YOUR GUIDE TO BUILDING & CONSTRUCTION ON THE SURF COAST & BELLARINE

Built for living

FOR more than 60 years, Simonds has been building a better life for Victorians. As times change and builders come and go, Simonds’ commitment to quality workmanship, innovative design and affordability has seen them become Victoria’s leading homebuilder. Simonds’ Product Development Manager, Bill Giannikos, said that “Victorian families love living in Simonds homes”. “Our homes set us apart. We call them Living Homes because they are truly built for living. I urge prospective homebuyers to visit our display centres in Newcomb, Lara or Torquay and see them for themselves”. Our homes have great living spaces, generous bedrooms and all of the features you’d expect. There is also a range of upgrade options available, so people can fit the homes to their lifestyle. “When you visit our display centres, our friendly consultants will make you feel welcome, and you’ll quickly see why Victorians love living in our homes.” “The other thing that sets Simonds apart is their commitment of being right alongside people during the homebuilding journey”,

says Bill Giannikos. “We listen to people, answer any questions they have and guide them through the process from start to finish. It’s this commitment along with our quality homes that sees more Victorians choose Simonds than any other homebuilder.” Simonds Display Centres are open seven days a week, Monday to Friday 12pm – 5pm and Saturday to Sunday 11am – 5pm. For more information give us a call or visit www.simonds.com.au

National Builders for a structurally sound home NATIONAL Builders Group have made a structural framing breakthrough, offering the most superior and environmentally friendly structural house framing option exclusively to customers at no extra charge. National Builders Group offer termite protected ‘blue’ timber framing to the whole house and all load bearing outer walls are framed with 90mm x 45mm studs at 450mm centres, giving greater strength and reliability and are totally vermin proof. The great thing about the National Builders Group termite protected ‘blue’ timber framing is that the treatment process involves the application of organic insecticides, safe and widely used in household consumer products, which are safe to handle and pose no significant threat to humans, plants and animals, but are toxic to termites. This offers the opportunity for National Builders to provide a 25-year structural guarantee to customers – some conditions may apply. National Builders Group recognises that structural framing is made from

natural timber grown and harvested from managed renewable plantation pine. As a result the following benefits apply: • No rainforest timber or endangered species are used • Plantation timbers grow on solar energy • Timber absorbs and reduces greenhouse gases. That’s right, trees absorb greenhouse gases during growth while releasing oxygen into the atmosphere whilst storing carbon. These timbers require low energy for growth and production, transport and installation. So, there you have it, National Builders Group provides the very best of structural integrity within your new home in an environmentally friendly manner. And that’s not all – National Builders Group also offer a long list of ultrapremium inclusions with no extra charge. To find out more, visit 16 Ironbark Street, Waurn Ponds, phone 5241 8355 or go to www.nationalbuilders.com.au

Warralily hits the mark WARRALILY at Armstrong Creek continues to establish itself as the location of choice for buyers with sales at Geelong’s newest community off to a flying start. Following the success of the first land release in June that saw all home sites sold out in just one day, the second stage was recently brought forward due to high buyer demand and is now on the verge of selling out too. Warralily sales and marketing manager, Crystall Mousios, said the strong sales results were indicative of the interest in the development. “People are excited about the opportunity of

being a part of a master planned community that will incorporate walking and cycling trails, parks, green open spaces, shops and community facilities,” she said. “The location is also attractive to buyers who are seeking the sought after coastal lifestyle with all the benefits of being close to Geelong’s CBD and waterfront, as well as the Ring Road to Melbourne.” Mousios said that Warralily will cater to the needs of all life stages with the range of residential lot sizes and housing options, from detached family homes to medium density housing close to community hubs. “We’ve had a mix of young families, retirees and

couples buying land but there is a skew towards buyers in the 25-35 year old age bracket,” Mousios said. “Most of our buyers are also second or subsequent home buyers who have identified Warralily as being a community that will provide them with everything they need from location to lifestyle.” The new Warralily community will begin to take shape with civil construction expected to begin this month. For more information please visit the Warralily Sales Office at 259 Charlemont Road, Connewarre, (Melways reference 480 E3), phone 1300 661 719 or visit www.warralily.com.au

FAST FACTS • Warralily is just a 10-minute drive to Torquay, the Bellarine Peninsula and Geelong. Melbourne is only a 50-minute drive with access to the new Geelong Ring Road only a few minutes away. • Warralily will have a distinct environmental focus with existing conservation reserveas protected and rejuvenated to their natural form. • The reinvigorated Armstrong Creek will act as the centrepiece of Warralily’s walking tracks and central landscaping features with nine kilometres of creek frontage. • There will be seven football ovals; three soccer ovals, 11 netball courts, 18 tennis courts, lawn bowls facilities, designated open space areas, a multi-purpose stadium and four pavilions included as part of the three active recreational areas within Warralily. • One third of Warralily is dedicated to open space, meaning that the majority of homes will be within 400 metres of a local park, playground or sporting reserve. • A future retail centre will be within easy access for all Warralily residents including attractive streetscape with a diverse range of shops, supermarkets, cafes and dining and plenty of nearby parking. • Warralily already includes Geelong Lutheran College which opened its junior and senior campus (P-8) in 2009. Three additional schools are proposed for the community. • Telecommunication technology, including state of the art fibre optics, will be available to every Warralily home to ensure residents stay connected via high speed broadband and cable television capabilities. • Sustainable living is a key feature of Warralily with the inclusion of infrastructure to provide Class A recycled water to all homes. • Vline trains service Armstrong Creek via Marshall Station, which is only a seven minute drive from Warralily.

Find it all at Front Beach BY NATHAN HALE TIMES are a changing at Torquay’s favourite Esplanade eatery, Front Beach CafĂŠ. While Steve Christou and his staff will continue to provide the same friendly and welcoming service, a few noticeable changes have been occurring behind the scenes. A new menu is the biggest change, as Steve and his chefs look to revamp and freshen up the dishes on offer. “It has been 12 months since we have changed the menu so we thought it was time to have a look at it and give it a bit of a freshen up,â€? Steve said. “Our eye fillet is pretty unique and it has been one of our signature dishes – it will be the first time in two-and-a-half years that it has changed.â€? The eye fillet will now be served wrapped in bacon with olive tapenade, smashed potatoes, roasted truss tomato, broccolini and red wine jus. Other items on the menu sure to become quickfire favourites include the pan fried duck breast, roasted stuffed capsicum, while the everpopular seafood feast for two remains. And move over fish-and-chip Friday; Front Beach Fridays will be known as curry night. Following on from the success of the curries during the popular locals nights, the dishes will now be offered on a regular slot on Friday nights. “We have been doing the curries on our Wednesday locals nights and

they have been really well accepted,â€? Steve said. “So we have decided to make Friday night curry night and there will be a couple of dishes on offer each week. “They should prove a good winter warmer.â€? Not one to forget those who love their breakfast, Front Beach now has pancakes on offer from Monday to Friday until 12pm. And for those who enjoy top-class beers, Front Beach is also proud to have leading Japanese beer, Asahi, on tap. Asahi will complement Front Beach’s other beers on tap – Carlton Draught, Pure Blonde and Fat Yak – as well as a range of national and international bottled beers. “We are really pleased to have been able to get such an exclusive beer as Asahi on tap,â€? Steve said. “We have been trying for a while and to get it is great – we think it will prove really popular with customers.â€? Apart from the new additions to the menu and drinks on offer, Front Beach has also made some internal changes, and there are plans afoot to make external changes as well. Front Beach CafĂŠ is open 9.30amlate Monday to Friday and from 9am-late Saturday and Sunday, with bookings essential.

McMonagle wins top award MELBOURNE artist Tim McMonagle has been awarded the Geelong Gallery’s prestigious 2010 Fletcher Jones art prize. The prize, valued at $30,000, was awarded to McMonagle for his work titled The happy song. The announcement was made by ABC TV’s Fenella Kernebone – presenter of the show, Art Nation – at the gallery’s exhibition opening Forty-three works were selected for the 2010 Fletcher Jones art prize from almost 900 entries submitted by artists from around Australia. In commending the work of short-listed artists, Geelong Gallery director, Geoffrey Edwards, hailed this as “very likely the most vital and provocative prize exhibition we’ve hosted for some years�. “Certainly, it’s the largest field we’ve shown for some while. With the range of visual reference from classic abstraction to colonial appropriation and on to a fresh and spontaneous style of imagery that might be dubbed ‘Facebook naturalism’, the 2010 prize exhibition encapsulates many of the current directions and concerns in contemporary painting in Australia.� Guest judge for the 2010 prize was Max Delany, director of the Monash University Museum of Art, who was joined by Edwards and Geelong Gallery curator Lisa Sullivan. Inspired by the languid demeanour of a homeless woman observed by the artist while on a residency in New York in 2008-09, McMonagle’s painting depicts a dishevelled, barefoot figure reclining on a vast and

bulbous mound representing her worldly possessions. Discarded high heel shoes and a plastic drinking cup are positioned in the foreground – symbols of the consumer culture from which she is seemingly displaced. Reminiscent of the social satire of 18th and early-19th century British artists such as William Hogarth, Thomas Rowlandson and James Gillray, McMonagle’s ‘dreamlike’ composition offers a contemporary parallel to the social commentaries of these earlier artists. Using the square format that has become a signature of the artist’s practice, the work is rendered in a severe monotonal palette, the sepia tint emphasising McMonagle’s strong drafting skills. Thick impastoed paint, juxtaposed with light, almost scumbled passages test the possibilities of the oil medium. McMonagle is represented in a number of significant public collections including Artbank, National Gallery of Victoria, Newcastle Region Art Gallery, Monash University Museum of Art, The University of Melbourne Art Collection, as well as private collections in Australia and abroad. This is the first work by McMonagle to enter the Geelong Gallery’s permanent collection and will be an excellent addition to the existing holdings of contemporary Australian paintings. The exhibition of selected paintings at the gallery continues until September 12. The gallery is located at Little Malop Street, Geelong, and is open from 10am-5pm with free entry.

Brewed for thought… NOW HERE is a serious beer… or three, (sip)… a‘quiet’ ale, soft and alluring, (sip), a thoughtful beer that allows ones thoughts to gently meander and dream along until, (sip)…? Refreshing (sip)… Ahhh! A beer to ponder over as it slides down leaving you marveling at the skill of the maker and his craft – how does he do it? (Sip), no, it makes you want to discuss and dissect the merits of micro-brewing, (slurp)… nay, you may even want to debate the quality vs quantity argument (a foregone conclusion I would tender), (slurp), actually, I think I’ll just write copious notes on these as I’m quite warming to their mellifluous liquid attractions, (bigger words = bigger sips…gulp)… Articulation, yes, that’s right, that’s what they require, why, how else can one begin to describe such complexities without resorting to a finer, more detailed analysis? (Gulp) Maybe I’ll get all prosaic about them? (Glug)… hang on a minute, (as I then woof it down!) what am I saying? Its just beer isn’t it? …well isn’t it?? Of course not! Ok, time to get on with the story then… Head Brewer Luke Scott started out as a trained chemical engineer working with Fosters and quite naturally ‘caught the bug’, which lead him to work in the UK with a number of smaller breweries making all sorts of exotic concoctions whilst traveling to Europe to further his education by ‘researching’ the beers of France, Germany and Belgium. Eventually, he arrived back in Australia where he ended up working for Potters Brewery in the Hunter Valley for five years, but the Melbourne raised boy had a hankering to get back down Victoria way which saw him land a dream job as head brewer at Otway Estate. Here, Luke’s given free reign to ‘go for it’ and create an exciting range of micro brews which have already won awards and drawn high acclaim. The Prickly Moses range of beers have gained strong support among beer enthusiasts, but it’s the Belgian and French inspired trilogy of farmhouse beers that’s really allowing Luke to spread his beer making wings. More akin to fine wine in style (and should be approached and appreciated in like manner), these beers made from the pure rain waters of the Otways are turning fine beer appreciation on its head… food, or should I say ‘brewed’ for thought indeed…

Pizza for breakfast? Count on Bomboras EVERYONE loves pizza – and everyone loves having a relaxing breakfast, especially when the cooking is done for you. So Bomboras are now bringing pizza and breakfast lovers the ideal offering – breakfast pizzas! The initiative kicked off last weekend and proved a hit for those looking to satisfy their craving for an early morning pizza fix. “Everyone loves eating out for breakfast and everyone loves pizza, so we thought ‘why not combine the two?’,” said Bomboras’ Tom McGrath. “We are not typically known as a breakfast venue, I suppose, so we thought it was something worth a try.” The normal Bomboras’ breakfast menu will remain available on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, but for those more adventurous, why not try some of the following pizza offerings: Benedict: Spinach, bacon, poached eggs and hollandaise sauce; Sunrise breakfast pizza: Egg, kransky sausage, bacon and tomato; Big break pizza: Egg, kransky sausage, bacon, tomato, mushroom and spinach; So-far unnamed: Bolognese sauce, capsicum, onion and hash browns. And it’s not just your breakfast needs that Bomboras have covered; their popular Shank and Shiraz promotion on Wednesday nights continues to prove popular. What better way to warm up on a chilly winter’s

Sing and dance for funding Students set to shine LOCAL community groups that foster dance and music throughout the Surf Coast and Bellarine are being called on to nominate for their share in available funding. From ballet to ballroom and choirs to hip hop, groups are invited to put their hands up for a share of the Telstra Assistance Fund for the first time. Telstra Area general manager Geelong and Surf Coast, Jodi Manion, is delighted to see the programme expand to include dance and music community groups. “We understand that not everyone is into sport, and we have extended the fund to include more people in our community who enjoy different ways of getting active and meeting people,” Manion said. “Through these equipment grants, we can assist people of all ages to get involved in the enjoyment, fellowship and health benefits that come from music and dance.” Grants for dance groups are open to eligible groups from within the regions visited by this year’s tour of The Dancers Company – The Australian Ballet’s annual regional touring group. Proudly supported by Telstra, The Australian Ballet’s principal sponsor, the 2010 tour brings a brand new production of the ballet classic Don Quixote to 13 locations across Australia. Artistic director of The Dancers Company, Danilo Radojevic, said The Australian Ballet aims to make

ballet more accessible to regional communities around Australia. “With The Dancers Company we’re bringing the magic of classical dance to people who don’t live in major capital cities,” he said. “The Telstra Assistance Fund is a great initiative – it’s fantastic that we can leave a lasting legacy in each community we visit this year.” The music category is open to eligible groups within 400 kilometres of the 12 Telstra Road to Tamworth heats taking place across Australia from July to November this year. The Telstra Road to Tamworth is a national talent development programme which travels around Australia each year to uncover independent performers and songwriters from all corners of the country. Since 2003, the Telstra Assistance Fund has provided more than $7million worth of equipment grants to more than 5,700 community and sporting clubs across Australia. This year Telstra is extending the fund to include new groups that help people connect with one another, and help bind our communities. To apply, eligible community groups can visit www.ideasforgood.com.au/taf, choose the most appropriate equipment package for their group and identify how the package would benefit the group.

SCHOOLS from throughout the Bellarine Peninsula and Surf Coast will take centre stage at Geelong Performing Arts Centre next week for the Geelong Schools Music and Movement Festival. From next Tuesday until Friday, schools will take part in the festival, which is being held as part of GPAC’s Bendigo Community Banks Education Programme. Now in its 64th year, the festival gives students the opportunity to shine as they sing, dance and perform in rock bands and orchestras on The Playhouse stage. For many students, the festival ignites an ongoing love of the performing arts and for many schools, it is a celebration of the creativity that exists within the school community. GPAC is pleased to announce the return of VicRoads as a major sponsor in presenting this historic, much-loved event. “The support from VicRoads ensures maximum participation from local students and the ongoing viability of the event,” said GPAC general manager, Jill Smith. “VicRoads’ sponsorship of the 64th GSMMF recognises the important role the performing arts plays in the community and ensures GPAC

can continue to provide this opportunity for our talented young people.” Local student Brodie McCoy is one of many in the region who have gained confidence and enjoyment through GPAC’s Education Programme activities. “We’ve learnt pretty much how theatre works, what it’s like backstage and actually performing on a stage, and just gained a lot of experience out of it all,” Brodie said. “I actually love acting, I’ve only discovered that this year, but I would love to work in the industry.” The festival will showcase a variety of acts from 38 schools as young people from throughout the region come together to perform on The Playhouse stage for friends, family and fellow students. Students from Surfside, Anglesea, Wallington and Drysdale primary schools, as well as the Lorne P-12 Campus, will be among those performing on The Playhouse stage across the four-day festival. Performances will take place from Tuesday through until Friday and tickets to all sessions are just $5 each and are available from the GPAC box office, phone 5225 1200.

Grinspoon sets Geelong date GRINSPOON has announced it will play Geelong’s Eureka Hotel in September as part of its huge regional tour. The regional tour is part of the band’s Six To Midnight Tour – which promotes their sixth studio album of the same name, with the Geelong appearance penciled in for Wednesday, September 15. The Eureka Hotel appearance will include performances from special guests Amy Meredith and The Snowdroppers.

Six To Midnight was an immediate hit when released late last year, debuting at number four in the ARIA charts and winning mountains of praise from fans and reviewers alike. The first two singles Comeback and Summer, and the latest single, Premonitions, have received huge reactions, gaining high rotation on most major television and radio stations Overwhelmed by demand to play shows in regional areas, the band decided to undertake a regional tour of Tasmania, the ACT, New South Wales, Victoria and South Australia. Legendary US producer Rick Will (Johnny Cash, No Doubt) was behind Six To Midnight’s production and mixing duties, and has delivered one of Grinspoon's finest records to date. The band returned to their spiritual home town of Byron Bay to record the album, which helped them capture their affinity for a good, live, hard rock record – something the band really wanted to achieve. For more information and to buy tickets, visit www.grinspoon.com

Brush up on pets’ dental health BY DR MARK YEE DENTAL disease is the most common infection seen in pets. In fact, 80 per cent of dogs and 70 per cent of cats over the age of three have some form of oral disease, and this is often not found until the animal has spent some time in pain. Symptoms of dental disease in dogs and cats include: • Yellow and brown build-up of tartar along the gum line • Red and inflamed gums • Persistent bad breath. Periodontal disease is a painful condition where bacteria in the mouth attack the gums, tissues and bones that support the teeth. This can result in other problems including tooth decay, bleeding gums and even tooth loss. Bacteria that cause periodontal disease enter the bloodstream and over time, damage the heart, liver, kidney and lungs. The consequences of this can include heart disease and kidney failure. The key message of this year’s Pet Dental Health Month is that ‘Healthy teeth mean a healthy pet’. So how can you help your pet to avoid this painful condition? In the month of August, Torquay Animal House Vet Clinic is offering your pet a free pet dental check up. We will check your pet’s teeth and gums and advise on the appropriate treatment for the dental disease that may be present – or how to avoid it. We can advise home dental care for your pet. This may involve daily teeth cleaning with special pet toothpaste, dental treats and prescription dental diets and feeding of raw meaty bones. For some pets, peridontal disease will be already well-established. In these cases, anaesthesia is performed to permit a full scale and polish of the teeth, with extractions of infected teeth if required. Every pet that has a free dental health check at Torquay Animal House will also get a complimentary sample of Royal Canin Dental diet and go into the draw to win a home dental care pack for your dog or cat. Call Torquay Animal House on 5261 6486 to make an appointment. Dr Mark Yee is a vet at the Torquay Animal House Veterinarian Clinic and Hospital.

AUG 3 - AUG 9 2010

Attention rambunctious Rams – boisterous, bossy behaviour will get you into trouble this week, especially at work. You’re ambitious for success but think twice before you challenge authority figures and arouse the opposition of colleagues. Diplomacy is not your natural forte, but it’s exactly what you need at the moment.

You may be thrust into the spotlight at work. Keep your cool Cancer! Jupiter is giving you a confidence boost so polish up your professional persona. With no less than six tricky transits, Saturday will be a difficult day so perhaps you should give it a miss and stay in bed. Things improve on Sunday, when you’ll feel more social and settled.

Venus (your ruling planet) vamps into your sign on Saturday, which usually signals a time of heightened romance. But Uranus throws a curved ball into your love zone, and a relationship heads off in an unexpected direction. It will be hard to balance your need for constant companionship with your partner’s need for independence.

If you are being jealous and possessive, then your partner (or potential partner) may decide that being single and free is much more fun. Is it time to change your attitude and give your lover a lot more space? As birthday great Andy Warhol said “They always say time changes things, but you actually have to change things yourself.”

Leos are proud people who love to pontificate, but heaps of hubris will land you in heaps of hot water this week. If you are too full of yourself, others will cut you down to size. Try a little humble humility instead! Venus moves into your communication zone on Saturday which favours conversation, companionship and co-operation.

Thinking you have all the answers could attract an angry response from others. Compromise will get you a lot further than confrontation. With the Sun shining in your career zone, all eyes are on you at work. So make sure you are putting on a good show! If you’re looking for employment, cast your net far and wide.

Are you trying to get closer to a teenager but they are pushing you away? Patience (not one of your virtues) is the key. Avoid the temptation to be a gossipy Gemini this week. If you pass on information that was given to you in confidence, you may end up feeling foolish and friendless. Zip your lip and find something constructive to do!

Financial matters are on your mind and your favourite word at the moment is ‘thrifty’. If someone else is managing your money, then make sure you have your finger on the pulse and know exactly what’s going on. If you can balance rational reasoning with intuitive insights, then you’ll have a surprisingly satisfying and successful week.

Keep your ego (and enthusiasm) in check this week. If you impulsively jump on your Sagittarian high horse, you’ll arouse the opposition of others. Friends and finances are also a messy mix at the moment, so try to keep the two separate. Spontaneous shenanigans could backfire, so take the time to think things through.

It was taken by Joe Calleri at Eastern Beach.

What name is given to the formal writing system of the ancient Egyptians? 7. “Macho Types Wanted: Must Dance And Have A Moustache” was an ad placed in a music trade magazine by which disco group?

Moderation and compromise are what’s needed this week Capricorn. A condescending attitude will only lead to a fraction too much friction, especially with work mates or family members. It’s the ideal time to repair, restore or rebuild something at home. Don’t expect everyone to like the finished product though!

With Venus, Mars and Saturn activating your aspirations zone, it’s time to dream big dreams for the future. They won’t materialize overnight though - you need to be patient and persistent. Be inspired by Barack Obama (born August 4) “It’s only when you hitch your wagon to something larger than yourself that you realize your true potential.”

Impulse buys now could lead to serious problems later on. So avoid making major purchases or important financial decisions, as you may be biting off more than you can comfortably chew. In the present economic climate, slow and steady wins the money race. Pay attention to your dreams – are they trying to tell you something?

Golf Tips: Sean Charleston (AAA) PGA Golf Pro Lonsdale Golf Club Playing better golf in winter conditions: I recommend the following; • Keep the body warm by wearing multiple layers of clothing, rather than a thick garment. • You should take the time in the locker room or clubhouse to do some stretching. • Finally, ensure you hands and head are kept warm at all times. Majority of body heat is lost through your head. Enjoy you golf during these winter months and I look forward to seeing you on the course in the near future. Demonstration days Come along and make use of the following demo days: Greg Norman: Women’s fashion exhibition on Friday, September 17, 1pm and 2.30pm. Titleist: Friday, September 10, 10am to 2pm; 30 minute sessions Ping: Friday, September 3, 10am to 2pm; 30 minute sessions. Srixon: Wednesday, September 15 10am to 12 noon demo day.

THE LATEST news, not that anyone needs to be told, is that it’s still wet and cold, testing even the hardiest of golfers down Port way. We started the week of results with the men’s Tuesday comp, a stableford. Trophy of the day was well earned by Dave McKeon with a whopping 46 points, blitzing his rivals. A grade winner was Matt Salter, on 41. B grace went to Bob Horne also on 41 and C grade to Tony Bond with a creditable 43. Tony’s would have been a trophy-winning card any other day that Dave doesn’t turn up! On Wednesday, the ladies played the final round of the Winter Plate par event. Winning a hole proved difficult in the cold and foggy conditions, but the eventual winner of the two-round event was Geraldine Collison with 3 up. Grade winners were A, Judith Webber with 1 down, B, Mary Quick also 1 down and C, Carmel Scarff with an excellent 2 up. Carmel attended the SWDLGA ladies clinic at Anglesea on Monday and you could say that was a good move. On Thursday, in the mixed Stableford, Trevor

McKeon, a visitor from Northern, shot an excellent 43. Close behind was our illustrious leader Peter Taylor with a 42 points. The 11-hole event saw Graeme Dryden score 40 points. Friday saw the popular nine-hole chook run for men and ladies. For the men’s section Brian Webster, after adjustment, returned 40 points and among the ladies Jean Pardy pipped Marian Keskinen in coutback for a win with 38 points. On Saturday, the morning players had a rainy start, but by afternoon the sun shone and it was a pleasant time to be on the course. It was a par event again, and scoring was once again difficult. 5 up won the trophy of the day for the men. Alan Hansen was the clever one there. Other grade winners were Miller Gelic, 3 up who also helped himself to NTP’s on 2 and 7. Lynton Barmby 4 up, Damien Lancaster 3 up. For the girls, scoring was also difficult, unless you were Jenny Emery who managed a very nice 3 up. Jenny won B grade and Sharon Antonio took A, with 2 down.

On a wild Sunday, the Arch Baker 4B Par was played and won, in a three-way countback by the top two, Peter Taylor and Kerry Bond, CEO and a very handy golfer with 6 up. The losers in the cb were Tom and Carmel Scarff and Jim and Geraldine Collison. In an individual Stableford, Stephen Jansen played a great game to score 44 points. What’s coming up The men and ladies both get a chance at a monthly medal this week, with the ladies on Wednesday and men on Saturday as well as a round of the eclectic. Carnival For available events, please check the Port website. The Beach Balls tribute show is on September 4 and at $50 per person, with a two-course meal, we can throw sand at each other and pretend we are toooo young to remember all the great music from that era. Contact the club to reserve your table, drag out your Hawaiian shirt and lei and enjoy the night with some friends.

WITH THE PRO SHOP

WHAT a wonderful sight to see two pennant flags flying at the club following the Geelong and District Golf Association finals at the weekend. Congratulations to all involved with the Division 1 and 3 teams who were the victors on Sunday. After a night of apprehension about the weather, the day dawned with blue skies, although there was a strong westerly and it was freezing! Division 3 showed why they were the hot favourites, defeating Barwon Valley five matches to nil. Congratulations to all the players who represented the team during the season. On the day, the victorious team was Peter Chappell (captain), Barry Tippett, James Eccles, Rod Brown and Luke Muller. The Division 1 final against 13th Beach was a nailbiting affair, with The Sands eventually prevailing four matches to three. The final produced some wonderful golf from all players, which the spectators appreciated. While the golf was hot, the weather was not! Well done to Craig Corker and his team of

Deyen Lawson, Ben Eccles, Andrew Field, Peter Babiolaskis, Matt Bruce and Tim Jarman. Special mention to team managers Cam Muller and Ray Hocking who had the difficult jobs of selecting the teams from a wonderful pool of talent at the club. Men’s competition Those hitting off in the morning for the Wednesday comp had the best of the conditions, while the afternoon players had to battle continual rain but came in with the best scores. Jim Demetrius, who has been knocking on the door for some weeks, finally had a win on a countback from Brett Jones. David Mallet won NTP on the 7th while Dean Bernasconi took the honours on the 13th. A large field played on Saturday despite the weather forecast and some terrific scores were carded. Matt Bruce won A grade with 37 points off a handicap of 1 while Ian Davis won B grade with 38 points. The par 3 specialist Barry Tippet won NTP on the 5th while John Booker was closest on the 7th. On

the back nine, John Williamson won NTP on the 13th and Peter Gray the 17th. Women’s competition Thick fog greeted the girls on Thursday and a small field rugged up for the par event. Carol McDonald was the winner with a great score of 3 up, while Heather Smith was runner-up with 2 up. Deb Hocking won NTP on the 7th and Sue Browne on the 13th. On Saturday, the women played a stableford event with Deb Hocking winning with 29 points. Future Events The Torquay Football Club will hold its major annual fundraiser at The Sands on Sunday. A great day is always ensured with plenty of entertainment provided by the competitors as the Tigers try to tame the course! A reminder that the black-tee visitor day will be held on Saturday, August 14. Members may bring up to three guests for the reduced rate of $35. Happy golfing and enjoy the flags!

FROM THE

mat WITH ANGLESEA BOWLS CLUB

CONGRATULATIONS and well done to the following bowlers who have all been in the winners’ circle at some stage throughout the past fortnight: Ken Voisey, June Healy, Josie Bizewski, David Schneeberger, Harry Mann, Henry Love (from Lorne), Ada Kuik, Dot Hermann, Doris Wendler, Renate Holdinghausen. Edna Gleeson, Glenys Murphy, Gerard Morrison, Bill Sanderson (from Torquay), Bob Jennings, Moss Darby, Heather Chalmers, Karen Bird and Helen Mann.

Slip, slop, sliding along: Cold and wet conditions greeted the teams on the weekend, with the men’s first grade team having to settle for a 0-0 draw with Bell Park.

Tight struggle developing HEAVY rain overnight on Friday turned an already waterlogged pitch at the Quay into what was pretty much a flooded field. By the time the under 14 girls, the FFV men’s reserves and finally the FFV men’s firsts had all played, it was a quagmire! Overall, Surfcoast FC did well this weekend, in spite of the heavy conditions across the region, with wins or draws in most leagues.

FFV Provisional 2 Men: Surfcoast (0) v Bell Park (0)

The second local derby this year ended with a muddy nil-all draw, meaning the top of the table race (and for the top two positions) has tightened considerably, but Surfcoast takes the honours against Bell Park for 2010, with a win against them in the first encounter. The result sees Surfcoast clinging to the top of the table by two points, with second placed Western Eagles having a game in hand. Next week is a mustwin against Lalor United.

GRFA 2nd Division Men: Surfcoast (4) v Corio (2)

In a very messy game the SCFC team got up 4-2 against a nine-man Corio squad. If this SCFC team can keep up their form, finals will be awaiting them - it’s possible with the team growing stronger and stronger every week.

U17 Boys: Surfcoast (2) v Geelong Rangers (3)

Surfcoast under 17s again went down for a battle this weekend against Geelong Rangers. The second half saw the game getting fiery with Surfcoast going

The ducks are winning Did you know that lawn bowls is not the only competitive sport played at the Anglesea Bowling Club? For the past few months, there has been a continual battle between the ducks (who love to leave their droppings on the synthetic greens) and our greens staff (who spend hours removing the offending debris). At the moment, we believe the ducks are winning!

Chicken run The next Chicken Run will be held this Friday, August 6 at 2.30 pm. Could all experienced bowlers please make the effort to play with our limited members who benefit greatly from your encouragement and enthusiasm. Weather permitting, the Anglesea Bowling Club winter programme (in neat casual attire) will be as follows: MON Mens commencing at 12.30pm TUES Ladies commencing at 11.00am (BYO lunch) SAT Mixed commencing at 12.30pm All visiting bowlers are cordially invited to play on these days. Please register your name with the club by 9.30am on the day of play (either in person or by telephoning 5263 1229). Ladies luncheons Attention all the ladies, there are only three more dates for this season’s Winter Luncheons – i.e. Wednesday, August 11 and 25, and September 8. So come along to the Anglesea Golf Club at 12pm and join in the fun.

down to 10 men courtesy of a red card, making the job harder for them as Rangers put two past an excellent Surfcoast keeper. Although they tried hard it was not to be for the Blue and Yellow, losing 3-2.

U16 Girls: Surfcoast (5) v Kardinia (0)

The girls under 16s game was a peculiar contest with Surfcoast winning 5-0 but putting in close to the team’s poorest performance. While the teamwork wasn’t great, Surfcoast struck some great goals, and there were some terrific individual performances.

U14 Girls: Surfcoast Yellow (2) v Surfcoast Blue (1)

The local derby took place in what looked like it could be horrendous conditions but the ground scrubbed up better than expected due to some late sunshine and a strong wind. After drawing in the last two meetings, the Yellows finally sealed a much deserved win. It wasn’t easy though, with the Blues aiming for the same outcome and putting on an excellent performance. Overall a very even game again with skills of the girls on both sides coming to the fore in very poor soccer playing conditions.

U12 Girls: Surfcoast Legends (2) v Geelong Rangers (0)

The Legends had a re-scheduled start and the rain had disappeared, leaving the ground in spectacular condition compared with the Quay. The Geelong Rangers made the trip south to face the Connewarre Doctor blowing 30 knots. After reaching 2-0 at halftime, the score remained there until the final siren as the Legends creep closer to that holy grail.

My Big Catch proudly sponsored by:

“It felt good,” he replied, but then he turned towards his grandfather and said “but not as good as when we caught it.” We all laughed and with that I gave him a small gift for his effort, which helped round off the perfect day for him. To me, this is what fishing is all about – shared experiences, good memories and bonds formed. A memory a nine-year-old boy will always treasure as he grows older, a special day when he and his granddad caught ‘the biggest bream you’ve ever seen’.

Last week I received the Liberal party’s policy on marine parks (http://www.liberal.org.au/ Policies.aspx) below is a quick summary of the main points. 1. Immediately put on hold the marine bioregional planning process to allow for its restructure 2. Provide a fair and balanced displaced effort policy 3. Base marine protected areas on science 4. Establish sensible and balanced marine park boundaries and develop management plans in consultation with industry. The Greens responded through their candidate for Moreton, Elissa Jenkins, who described the policy as ‘flawed’, she said this was because it ignores the issues raised in the 2006 animated film, Happy Feet. “Anyone’s who’s seen the animated children’s film Happy Feet would know that overfishing is the biggest threat facing our fishing and tourism industries – not sanctuaries,” she said.

ALL YOUR FISHING NEEDS

LAST week I was reminded of why fishing can be so special and I would like to share this with you as best I can. Recently a customer came in to my store and asked me if I had my camera ready; he was quite excited and smiling like a Cheshire cat. I asked him, what he had caught, he replied: “No, not me, it’s my grandson.” There was definitely no mistaking the pride in his voice. “Well, go get him and his bream and I’ll take the photo,” I said. When he came in, the young boy’s grin was larger even than his grandfather’s. “What have you caught?” I asked. The boy looked up at me and took a gulp, and said “A bream, a big bream… look at it, isn’t it huge?” I looked into the bucket and there it was, a real thumper. “It’s the biggest bream ever he cried out, granddad helped me, but I caught it,” he said with delight. I looked at them both and their smiles said it all. He proudly handed up his bream to me, which I then measured and weighed – and it came in at a whopping 38 centimetres and 850 grams. I’ve seen bigger bream, but in this young boys eyes you could see that this bream was the biggest bream that anyone had ever caught. After some discussion with his granddad and myself, the young boy decided it would be good to release the bream safely back into the river, once he realised how old it might be. Afterwards I asked him how he felt letting the bream go.
