ON THE TRAIL Push begins to introduce an equestrian trail across the Bellarine
from Melbourne, Geelong and regional Victoria can be realised if safe connecting paths are built and relevant infrastructure developed”. Keith said a group of food and wine enthusiasts who were also avid horse riders regularly rode to various wineries and restaurants on the Bellarine such as Banks Road Vineyard and Loam restaurant, for coffee and lunch, where there are areas for horses to be left safely. Bellarine rider, Vicci Crowley, said there were many groups who regularly met for a similar ride but were forced to ride on unsigned roads with cars and trucks.

“The trail encourages one to discover our gourmet region, and has many packages available on the website that promote exploring the region by bike. We would love to expand this further for horse enthusiasts, but need to first ensure the safety of those visiting our region.” He said developing a north-south trail would unlock significant local tourism by opening up the hinterland of the Bellarine and allow access to wineries, cafes, farm gates and rural landscapes for tourists, walkers, horse riders and cyclists. Destination Bellarine officer, Emma Keith, said there was “huge tourism and economic development potential through visiting cyclists and horse riders
Victo ria S t
A CAMPAIGN by local and visiting horse riders to create a trail network across the peninsula has been boosted by Bellarine Tourism. Equestrians and horse enthusiasts have been calling for a network of horse trails on the Bellarine for several years, prompted by the huge increase of cars on local roads and growth of the local horse industry. Bellarine Tourism and the Committee for Bellarine are also pushing for the horse trail initiative to be implemented to address safety issues for riders and to capitalise on tourism and economic opportunities for the region.
Bellarine Tourism chair, Hugo Armstrong, said the City of Greater Geelong’s Bellarine Horse Trail Study identified the need for a north-south linear open space corridor on the peninsula to ensure a safer environment for horse riders, bike riders and other users. The study also outlined the need for improved signage, the development of off-road trails and designated ‘horse friendly’ roads. “The Bellarine is without an integral link between the north and south. It is has a missing link that we feel is imperative to the safety of riders, but also the further expansion and development of Bellarine Tourism’s hero product, the Bellarine Taste Trail,” Armstrong said.

MAYOR’S COLUMN Success of the music festival THE QUEENSCLIFF Music Festival continues to go from strength to strength – seeing ticket sales more than doubling this year. This year the festival had an increase of approximately 57 per cent on gross ticket sales. Festival director, Michael Carrucan said this was largely due to the re-introduction of the Friday night ticket and a popular Sunday lineup. Overall, weekend tickets were up 40 per cent. Friday night and Sunday were sold out. The highlight would have to be a great crowd enjoying RockWiz and John Williamson despite the heavens opening up on the Saturday. Queenscliff Music Festival has set itself the goal of offering the best in Australian music to the widest possible demographic. That was proved over the weekend just by looking at the packed tents and venues in Hesse Street. Carrucan’s reflection was: “A casual observer would not be able to pick out a dominant age group. It was a perfect mix of young, old, couples, male, female, singles, families (of which there were a lot). I think this aligns perfectly with the town and region in its efforts to open up the Bellarine to a new and wide audience throughout the year�. Local accommodation businesses also reported an increased patronage of up to 50-plus per cent and Borough of Queenscliffe officers have also received positive feedback from a number of community groups and local businesses. Well done to everyone concerned.
tourism businesses to get them to provide more information about their business and what they can offer the local and seasonal community. QLBTA will do the same with all other businesses, as it is an ideal opportunity to promote all businesses in the borough. This all augers well for every business that operates in the borough.
End of the school year As the VCE results are announced I would like to congratulate the local school principals and their staff on the completion of another successful year and their dedicated contribution to the young people of the borough. Many of our locally educated primary school students will now be travelling out of the borough to commence the next phase of their school life. It is an exciting time and I wish them well.
Neighbourhood House It is pleasing to see the increased activity at the Neighbourhood House given its relocation to Tobin Drive and the increased participation of residents in the wide-ranging activities provided. The increased area that the new site will
facilitate a broader range of activities to be offered and council are assured that the new location will be a major benefit to the community.
Princess and Citizens Park walking path This week contractors will be commencing the new path starting from the pier in Symonds Street, through to Tobin Drive and then up the escarpment to Fort Queenscliff. The works are planned to be completed by Christmas.
40km zone in Point Lonsdale Council welcomes the extension of the 40km speed restriction zone in Point Lonsdale Road recently implemented by VicRoads. The 40km restriction now extends from the shopping centre up to the Elizabeth Street intersection and includes the common crossing point at the adjacent playground area. Council believes this will greatly increase pedestrian safety in this area. We ask residents and visitors to be aware of this new speed restriction area. Bob Merriman Mayor, Borough of Queenscliffe

Call for Coalition to back Shell Road BY ALISON MARTIN A CALL for the new State Government to fund Ocean Grove’s Shell Road Sports Precinct by Member for Corangamite, Darren Cheeseman, has been backed by City of Greater Geelong and Member for Bellarine, Lisa Neville. The Federal MP urged the Coalition Victorian Government to match the Federal Labor Government’s $2million contribution – a promise made by the former Labor State Government if re-elected. Cheeseman said the Shell Road sporting facility project had been planned at a total cost of over $6million, but was now at risk. He said the Federal Government had promised to contribute $2million, but Ocean Grove’s proposed precinct required State and Local Government funding. “I believe this is the most important sport and recreational precinct on the Bellarine Peninsula, and this is something I have championed for the community where we want a first-class result,” Cheeseman said. “The issue is now whether we get an important regional-level project, or a glorified tin shed. “I believe all levels of government should be contributing to get an outcome that will last the community for two or three decades to come.” He challenged the Victorian Government that if it was “serious about community health and fighting things such as childhood obesity”, investing in sports and recreation
facilities was an absolute priority. “The Shell Road Precinct upgrade will help the footy club, the netball club, the soccer and cricket clubs and other sports to increase their levels of participation,” he said. CoGG councillor, Jan Farrell, said the Ocean Grove community was grateful to Cheeseman for his support in obtaining Commonwealth funding. “We look forward to briefing the new Minister for Sport and Recreation, Hugh Delahunty, on the project,” she said. “We are keen to progress those discussions at the earliest opportunity but acknowledge the fact that he has been in the job less than a week.” “In the meantime, we’ll continue to work with all stakeholders to deliver the new Ocean Grove clubrooms.” Neville also pushed for the State Government to commit to upgrading the precinct. “I have and will continue to strongly advocate for community projects on the Bellarine I have been working on for so long, including the sporting precincts at both Drysdale and Ocean Grove, even though they were not commitments of the current Government,” she said. “This is a very important project to support the growing community of Ocean Grove and I am determined that the new Government does not forget the needs of our electorate. “It is vital that sporting facilities are provided to cater for the demand and therefore encourage more community participation in sport and recreational activities.”

CADEL Evans has backed Bike Safe’s local initiatives while cycling around the Bellarine during his off -season break. The high-profile international cyclist, whose home base is in Barwon Heads, said Bike Safe’s ‘Share the Road’ message was an effective way of reinforcing respect and consideration for one another. He said the Geelong Region was a great region for cyclists and any endeavours to promote road safety can only encourage further participation and enjoyment. “I am pleased to support any initiative that promotes safety for all road users,” he said. “Locally, in Barwon Heads, I am particularly pleased that Bike Safe is promoting the message of improved behaviour by motorists and cyclists alike. “Under the road rules, bicycles are considered to be vehicles and therefore cyclists also have rights and obligations. “I particularly like the positive approach Bike Safe is taking to work together with authorities to effect positive change.”

BELLARINE women are making a difference, with ‘The Knockout Chicks’ raising more than $8,740 for the Breast Cancer Network Australia – and they’re still collecting! Inspired by Melanie Traynor, who has been undergoing cancer treatment, and cancer survivor, Faye Connors, the team of 63 women entered the BCNA Sussan Women’s Fun Run in Melbourne this month.
The Knockout Chicks included women from Mel’s new home in Barwon Heads, Ocean Grove and her previous community of Romsey, and made a huge contribution to the BCNA’s total fun run tally of around $90,000. BCNA spokesperson, Julie Reilly, said Faye was the top individual fundraiser for the event, which had a record number of 5,200 participants this year. She said The Knockout Chicks were one of two leading fundraisers overall and had continued to increase their tally after the event.
“Breast Cancer Network Australia would like to thank all those who contributed to support our work with Australians affected by breast cancer,” Julie said. “We are particularly please that through this event, local women diagnosed with breast cancer have linked together in friendship, fun and personal achievement and at the same time have raised funds to help other women facing breast cancer.” Donations to The Knockout Chicks can be made online at http://swfr2010.gofundraise.com.au

Support for SES BY ALISON MARTIN INSPIRATIONAL 11-year-old Tom McKenzie has taken on the challenge of raising money for the Bellarine State Emergency Service – and he is urging more schools to take his lead and support its valuable work. Tom sees first-hand the time, dedication and effort contributed to the community by SES volunteers, with his father, Brett, a member of the Bellarine unit. He decided to organise a fundraiser casual dress day at his own school, Drysdale Primary, but also took the initiative to the next level by writing to other schools in the area and asking them to do the same. Tom wrote letters asking Bellarine schools to hold their own casual day with students donating a gold coin to the Bellarine SES. He said Point Lonsdale Primary School had already agreed to his proposal and raised almost $200 for the local unit. However, he is hoping other schools will come forward to support the vital service. “The SES is a team of men and women who volunteer to help the community,� Tom said. “They go out at all hours of the day and night to cut down trees which are threatening to fall on houses, help people in floods, conduct search and rescue and use the Jaws of Life to extract people from car accidents. “The members of the Bellarine unit have also assisted police and fire brigade early last year in the fires which destroyed many communities in Victoria and also assisted in the clean up and removal of trees and debris after the severe hail storms which hit Melbourne earlier this year. “The money raised will go towards a new four wheel drive vehicle which will help the SES to help the residents of our community.� To support the fundraising venture and the Bellarine SES, contact Tom by email at je.mckenzie@hotmail.com
SES mascot, Paddy Platypus, is proud of Drysdale’s Tom McKenzie’s initiative to raise funds for the Bellarine unit – which included a casual day at his school last Friday.

Bellarine’s ‘big picture’ BY ALISON MARTIN COMMITTEE for Bellarine has launched its 2010/11 business plan, with an innovative ‘big picture’ approach to facing future challenges for the peninsula. The committee’s founding chair, Graeme Smith, presented the draft business plan – which outlines the committee’s medium and long-term programmes and goals – to the CfB’s committed stakeholders last week. CfB spokesperson, Tom O’Connor, said the committee had entered into important partnerships with key authorities, private businesses and groups since its formation, which would provide an essential network for planning for the peninsula’s future. He said one of those partnerships was with Deakin University, and representatives from Deakin attended the business plan launch. Victorian Laboratory for Urban Ecologies research fellow at Deakin’s Geelong Waterfront Campus, Simone Leao, was accompanied by Vishal Singh and Rebecca Jing Yang, and presented the interim results of a comprehensive Bellarine-focused
study. O’Connor said the study addressed urban ecological issues confronting the Bellarine and the prospective effects that could apply with the anticipated future population growth. “After breaking into small discussion groups, attendees examined a suggested list of key activities nominated by the committee’s executive which, with the valuable input from the Deakin guests, provided an insight into key factors that should be considered when assessing future projects for the Bellarine,” he said. “The meeting concluded with an invitation to join the executive to assist in the completion of the business plan and continue the committee’s efforts to establish its priorities and confirm its partners.” O’Connor said the next step in the committee’s development will be a meeting scheduled with the City of Greater Geelong chief executive, Steve Griffin, before Christmas to be followed by a meeting with Committee for Melbourne executive officer, Andrew McLeod and Committee for Geelong executive officer, Peter Dorling, in January.

ON THE TRAIL
Bellarine Tourism’s Emma Keith and Taste Trail operator Peter Slattery, from McAdam’s Lane Winery, are leading the growing call for a north-south trail network across the Bellarine – joined by local horse riders Fiona, Madison, Deirdrie, Vicci and Hayden (front centre).
“Now that sections of the rail trail do not allow horses through, we are left in a dangerous situation as we are now faced with navigating unsigned roads that do not allow a safe distance for us to ride from passing traffic,” she said. “It is a huge concern for us and we implore council to install adequate signage to make drivers more aware and share the road until such time that the integral north south link is implemented,” Armstrong said. He said the anticipated tourism increase and growth in horse-riding gourmet tour groups, made it urgent that council adopted the recommendations
of the proposed trail network on the Bellarine Peninsula. Committee for Bellarine spokesperson, Tom O’Connor, said the committee had met with council regarding the need for the study implementation. “Equestrian, pony club, recreational and thoroughbred are the four components of the Bellarine’s horse industry which is a significant part of the Bellarine and very much a core component for the rural strategy,” he said. “The horse trail study provides the potential for employment growth and underpins environment, social and economic focuses on the Bellarine.”
O’Connor said he was confident the horse trail initiative could be a success, particularly if created in conjunction with the Bellarine Taste Trail. “It’s a great concept and can provide fantastic infrastructure for the Bellarine, with consideration given to the mix of horse riders, cyclists, joggers and walkers,” he said, throwing support behind the Bellarine Tourism push for action of the study findings. The study was “noted” at last month’s CoGG meeting, with short and long term actions identified but likely to be dependent on 2011/2012 budget funding allocations.

New Total Fire Ban districts. Victoria now has nine Total Fire Ban districts that align with the nine Victorian Bureau of Meteorology weather districts. This means Total Fire Bans and Fire Danger Ratings now apply to the same districts. Total Fire Bans are declared by the CFA on days when fires are likely to spread rapidly and be difficult to control. They can be declared either state wide or in specific districts.

Festive fun and health MORE than 60 children celebrated Christmas, their health and development, and community spirit last week at a Kids’ Fun Morning in Point Lonsdale. The popular family event was hosted by Bellarine Community Health and the Borough of Queenscliffe at the BCH site and community garden. Lizards, a crocodile and even Captain Koala made an appearance on the day, and children were
entertained with many hands-on activities, facepainting, music and a chance to dance. A new piece of artwork at the Point Lonsdale community garden, dedicated to the many kids who visit the Maternal and Child Health nurse and services, was also unveiled on the day. The fun morning also provided an opportunity for families to become more familiar with the Maternal
Bill, from Point Lonsdale, and Bridie, from Collendina, enjoyed the Roaming Reptiles at the morning.

O’Neill to provide a helping hand JACINTA O’Neill has rescued plenty of people from the sea during her time as a member of the Torquay Surf Life Saving Club. Now she wants to make a life-changing difference to rural and remote Australians by encouraging more health students to pursue careers in the bush. The aspiring doctor has just been chosen as co-chair of the 9,000-strong National Rural Health Students Network (NRHSN). The NRHSN brings together people studying medicine, nursing and allied health from 29 rural health clubs at universities around Australia. This network of clubs offers professional development opportunities, events that engage students in rural life and a social base for rural students moving to the city for study. “The NRHSN enables students to meet, form friendships and establish relationships that will help us work effectively together in the bush once we’ve graduated,” O’Neill said, who has just completed second year medicine at Deakin University in Geelong. “We’ll be having a big focus in the next 12 months on inter-club activities, rural high school visits and volunteering at events such as Indigenous festivals.” A former PE teacher at Sacred Heart College in Geelong, O’Neill is particularly keen to drive the rural high school visits programme as a way of inspiring secondary students to consider tertiary studies in health. Last year, more than 400 rural health club members volunteered for 300 high school visits where talks were given on healthy lifestyles and career opportunities in health. O’Neill and her executive team will also be
advocating for improved rural career pathways, including opportunities for more rural placements and training support for university health students.

Commonwealth Bank Torquay branch manager Greg Woolard with the 2011 diaries.
A worthwhile gift BY ELEANOR WOODS TORQUAY residents are getting behind Commonwealth Bank’s bid to help people affected by breast cancer.

is affected in some way,” he said. “The bank and staff like taking part in things like this, to help where we can.” Torquay is in the top 100 selling branched from over 1,000 nationally. Throughout the country, Commonwealth Bank is trying to raise $1million for the Breast Cancer Institute of Australia through the diary campaign. The diaries, which are full of important health tips and advice, cost $14.95 and are available until the end of the year. “They make a lovely Christmas present,” Woolard said.

All aboard the woodwork express BY ALISON MARTIN BELLARINE Woodworkers are preparing to showcase their intricate, handcrafted timber creations at the group’s 2011 woodworking exhibition in Queenscliff. The woodworking group meets at the Springdale Neighbourhood Centre in Drysdale twice a month, with other regular gatherings at members home who specialise in a particular style of turning or carving. Each member has their own interest or technique which range from model boats and trains to guitars and furniture. ‘Woodies’ member, Charlie Isaac, will have five made-to-scale wooden trains which he has painstakingly turned from Huon pine.
Isaac said each of his model trains, which are all Victorian Railways engines, have taken about 12 months to craft. He is particularly proud of his No. 34 train – a replica of the engine which first travelled between Melbourne and Geelong in 1857. The 2010 Bellarine Woodworkers Exhibition will also include demonstrations and there will be some pieces for sale, as well as the display. The public exhibition will be held at the Queenscliff Uniting Church in Hesse Street from January 1 to 3. The Woodies meetings are open to new members, experts and learners, who are welcomed to share their experience, knowledge and love of wood. More information is available by contacting the Bellarine Woodworkers on 5258 2380.
Enjoy the spirit of the season THE FESTIVE season is well and truly upon us and the community is invited to join in with Carols on the Lorne. The grassy knoll of the St Cuthberts Uniting Church will be lit with cheer this Saturday when the community event comes to life. Lorne community pastor Andy Davies, said families and friends were invited to join in the celebrations by bringing a picnic blanket and their best singing voice. “It will be a great night out. It is really family friendly atmosphere; a great chance to get together, sing together and celebrate the message of Christmas,” he said. Representatives from the Catholic and Anglican churches would be present at the event as well as a raft of entertainers. Rhys Bongetti, Annie Couts and Layla Norton will open the event before singer/songwriter

The Lions Club is providing a sausage sizzle from 6.30pm and pre-carols entertainment will run from 7pm. Candles and programmes will be available for sale on the night. “All the songs will be the traditional carols that everyone knows. The words will be in the programmes so people can follow along,” Davies said. “We have some great performers leading the way so it should be great. “I think this is a wonderful time of year to celebrate family and we are so lucky here in this beautiful environment and setting.”

Sneak peek at new library
13
Access Equipment now available from Torquay Hire
WE HAVE
MOVED
An artist’s impression of the Waurn Ponds Library.
CITY of Greater Geelong last week gave the community a sneak peek of the new $5.3million Waurn Ponds Library. The digital artist’s impression shows the unique, architecturally designed library, which will soon be built next to Leisurelink on Pioneer Road. The two-storey library will house a community hub, which allows space for community meetings, interest groups, information sessions and other community gatherings. The library will also provide space for general library usage as well as passive areas for reading, study, community IT access, plus spaces for children and teenagers.
It will include a City of Greater Geelong shopfront, where residents will be able to access council services. Federal Member for Corangamite, Darren Cheeseman, said the Waurn Ponds Library would be a terrific community asset for decades to come. “I believe what we are building at the new Leisurelink is a world leading community facility that genuinely brings people together from a wide range of community sport and recreation interests,� he said. “With all the facilities of a modern library it will accommodate the growing community in Geelong’s south, including Armstrong Creek.�
“It won’t be your standard library, but a high tech, state-of-the-art library and community hub which will cater for today’s library users, and this is reflected in the building’s contemporary design,� said City of Greater Geelong Mayor, John Mitchell. “There will be a greater emphasis on information technology and community gatherings than traditional libraries, however, there will, of course, be an extensive book collection as well.� Construction is expected to start early next year. The new $5.3million library and community hub is being funded by the Federal Government ($3 million), the State Government ($767,000) and the City of Greater Geelong ($1.52 million).

Prepare yourself AS FAMILIES prepare for the Christmas break, Telstra is urging customers on the Bellarine Peninsula and Surf Coast to think about their phone services when preparing for summer emergencies. Telstra Country Wide area general manager for Geelong and the Surf Coast, Jodi Manion, said it is not just the physical surroundings of a home that people need to consider. “When we talk about being ready for summer emergencies people commonly think of preparing their surroundings for bushfires, storms and floods,” she said. “It’s easy to forget that one of the first things we do in an emergency is call for help so it’s really important to take simple steps to make sure we can stay connected to emergency services and of course, to our loved ones. “With the ever increasing reliance on the Internet and telephone services, now is the time to ensure that all telecommunication equipment is in good working order.” Telstra is encouraging local residents to consider the following tips that have been developed in response to customer enquiries about ways to optimise their telephone services in emergency situations such as bushfires, cyclones and floods. Telstra’s 10 top tips include: • Think about a Blue Tick mobile phone – different mobile phones have different capabilities. Telstra’s Blue Tick accreditation program identifies Next G™ handsets that offer superior handheld coverage performance in country areas • Consider a standard fixed phone - power failures will affect cordless PSTN phones and VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) services that require 240V power to operate. Customers using VoIP should check with their service providers • Have a spare mobile battery – it’s advisable to have a spare, fully charged battery on stand-by • Carry additional mobile phone chargers – an in-car and a separate AC mains charger are essential in case of evacuation
• Upgrade your 2G SIM – it’s important that customers upgrade their 2G SIM card when purchasing a Telstra Next G™ mobile handset to receive the benefits of Telstra’s extensive 3G network coverage • Keep essential numbers close by – have a list of essential contact numbers close at hand, including local Police, Fire, SES and Telstra’s fault line – 132203 • Use Triple Zero (000) appropriately – only call Triple Zero in life threatening emergencies. If your situation is not time critical but requires the attention of an emergency services organisation, you should call alternate emergency services’ numbers • Keep calls to a minimum – although Telstra monitors the network closely in times of emergency to avoid congestion, it’s advisable to keep calls to a minimum during natural disasters to allow people to call emergency service organizations • Gauge the benefits of a satellite phone – if living or travelling in isolated areas, consider purchasing a satellite phone for continuous phone coverage • Consider a Yagi antennae – having one of these antennas maximises mobile phone reception from your home or vehicle. As part of its own front line defences against potential natural disasters, Telstra invested in the development of the first Mobile Exchange on Wheels (MEOW) – a portable, fully functional telephone exchange, specifically designed to provide communications to disaster areas. The MEOW complements Telstra’s fleet of Cells on Wheels (COW), which are transportable mobile base stations that were used extensively throughout the bushfire-affected regions of Victoria. Telstra technology is also being used as part of the National Emergency Warning System. Telstra customers requiring further information or assistance should visit their nearest T[life] store, Telstra Shop or dealer.

Girls raise a healthy sum BY ALISON MARTIN OCEAN Grove’s ‘Girls Only’ Afternoon raised enough money to operate the Mphatso nursery school in Malawi – including the feeding of 1,000 children – for more than two months. The fundraiser coincided with a visit by Mphatso founder Robyn Casey to her second home in Ocean Grove and was hosted by a locally based support group for the Mphatso project.
Co-organiser, Andrea Robertson, said the final total for the girls’ afternoon was just under $2,800, with more than 110 people attending the event. “As expected, the afternoon tea itself was delicious, the scone baking contest was a good laugh and we had our Matt Preston impersonator, aka Geoff Trevaskis, there as judge,” she said. Robertson said the cooking demonstrations went well and the large crowd enjoyed hearing of Lena and Beth Johnstone’s plans to move with their family to Malawi for two years to support Casey’s work. Mphatso has 10 nursery schools in Malawi, which educate and provide a bowl of porridge to
more than 1,000 children five days a week and an open kids club which feeds up to 150 children once a week. The foundation has also started a feeding programme for babies, gives maize to elderly people once a week and employs 50 Malawi staff. Lena said the $2,800 raised would cover five teachers’ wages for almost a year; or all of the running costs for the nursery schools for a couple of months. All donations to Mphatso go directly to assist the people of Malawi, with Casey and the Johnstone family self-funded and working as volunteers.

Fair family law FAMILY law is best dealt with by an experienced professional who has a thorough knowledge of all aspects… and Ocean Grove now has a locally based family lawyer to help families through separation. Peter Lundberg has established an office in Ocean Grove offering a range of legal services, but specialising in family law. “I have been practicing as a family lawyer for more than 25 years and have vast experience in all the legal facets of separation, divorce, property division, and custody following the breakdown of a relationship,” he said. “I have represented many clients in a range of issues which confront those who are separated and are concerned to protect their rights and to ensure a fair outcome. “Very often these issues are complex and the source of considerable distress particularly when the welfare of the children is at issue. “Unravelling the financial aspects of a relationship can also be difficult and Peter has dealt with a wide range of disputes in cases, both in the Family Court and through the processes of mediation.” Lundberg began legal practice in Geelong in 1982 and became a partner in the firm of Phillip Considine and Co, which was involved in several mergers before becoming Harwood Andrews, where he became a principal in the Family Law department. Lundberg served on the Bethany Family Support board of management for several years and now lives in Barwon Heads, with his office at 1/83 The Parade, Ocean Grove. Phone 5256 3832 for an appointment.

Entertainment too good to miss BY ALISON MARTIN THE MUSIC line-up at January’s Tranquility Fair at Ocean Grove Park has been finalised and all sites are booked, with more than 110 individual stalls set to offer a fantastic range of handmade items, food and more. Ocean Grove Park Association president, Colin Atkins, said the fair was one of the park’s major fundraisers, along with the car boot sale held earlier this month. He said the events at the park were a great opportunity to bring the community together, taking advantage of the natural environment in central Ocean Grove. Atkins said about $2,000 was raised from the car boot sale, with many people donating to the park association’s stall, which would go towards maintenance of the community managed park. “It’s just good to see so many people enjoying the park, which would have ended up as housing rather than community space without the volunteer association,” he said. Atkins said after hosting the weekend’s Carols by Candlelight the next big event would be the annual fair on Saturday, January 8, from 10am-4pm. Performers confirmed to entertain the crowd include Rebecca Barnard, The Band Who Knew Too Much, Catherine Sanzaro and Stephen McEwan and The Yes Men. Barnard is the former lead singer of Rebecca’s Empire and has released her second solo album, Everlasting, this year. The Band Who Knew Too Much is a bona-fide foolproof floor-packing band, featuring Dave Evans, Andrew Reid, Matt Earl, Craig Farmanis and Rory Boast.
For over a decade they have branded their sound around the world; a highly energetic act that is at home singing on the festival stage, busking unplugged on the city streets, or anything in-between… including Ocean Grove’s Tranquility Fair! Sanzaro sings with a soulful, energy and intensity that defies her 17 years. Cutting her vocal teeth with The Sweethearts, she is now a solo act who has left audiences transfixed with the power of her delivery.
She is an up and coming performer who amazed at Queenscliff Music Festival and will do it all again at Ocean Grove Park, while Stephen McEwan and The Yes Men will offer their unique genre of folk, funk, country and blues. McEwan’s underlying sense of humour is balanced with more serious lyrical moments in the band’s songs from the heart, songs from the head and songs for dancin’ feet.

Market View Changing banks too hard: survey with tracey watts
change and worried about being hit with unfair costs if they do,” Degotardi said. The research showed that 37 per cent of customers of the big four banks said they had considered leaving and finding a new financial provider due to the banks recent behaviour. Forty per cent said they had considered changing their main bank at some point in the last five years, but two-thirds of this group ended up sticking with their current bank. Of those that wanted to change but didn’t: • 41 per cent said it was too difficult • 23 per cent there were fees and charges attached to shifting • 28 per cent said there was no point as all banks were the same. Respondents said they believed the major reason people stick with the major banks is a lack of information about the alternatives
AUSTRALIAN consumers want more information about alternatives, and believe that it is too difficult or costly to shift away from the big banks. Results of an Essential Research poll show a growing level of dissatisfaction with the major banks, but that consumers believe there are too many obstacles to changing. There is also a strong call for Federal Government action to promote competition and support credit unions, building societies and other lenders. Mark Degotardi, Head of Public Affairs at Abacus – Australian Mutuals, said recent interest rate rises by the major banks had left customers unhappy and looking for alternatives. “Customers are feeling trapped. They are not happy with the service they are getting from the major banks, but are unsure about how they can
Sentiment at extremes THE INTRIGUING thing about mass psychology is the phenomenon that, at its most committed moment, the herd will be disastrously wrong. This herding instinct is a part of human behaviour and explains such things as the ebb and flow of clothing fads through to the rise and fall of empires. Mass psychology is also found in financial markets where regular boom bust cycles have their origin in investor sentiment. Confidence and optimism become more pronounced as markets rise reaching an extreme at the top of the cycle – think the various housing bubbles; the 1990s tech boom. Pessimism and risk aversion build on the way down with all hope gone right when the market reaches the bottom – think March 2009 in global stock markets. This herding behaviour leads to the crowd being wildly wrong at the peak of booms and at the depth of busts. Contrarian thinkers recognise this and attempt to identify imminent turns in a market by analysing not only what the crowd is feeling but how extreme that feeling is. In general terms, the more one-sided and certain ‘sentiment’ is towards a market, the closer it is to being wrong. Quite simply, market turning points are always accompanied by extremes in sentiment – the tricky part is knowing how to measure those extremes. As famously recognised by John Maynard Keynes, “markets can remain irrational a lot longer than you and I can remain solvent”. So true! Increasingly sophisticated measures have been developed to determine when the ‘crowd’ is at an extreme – investor surveys, money flows, insider trading, put/call analyses are but a few. As with all technical tools, no single measure is the holy grail but sometimes in combination a persuasive picture emerges. That is why the recent extremes in a number of measures of market sentiment may be telling.
No hold on Christmas spending A POLL released last week by PRDnationwide shows half of home owners will spend the same or more on Christmas this year despite successive interest rate rises. PRDnationwide managing director, Jim Midgley, said 50 per cent of respondents would not be put off by the rising mortgage repayments. “Forty-three per cent plan to spend the same as last Christmas, while seven per cent of respondents will splash out and spend more than last year,” he said. “The majority of property owners are still better off than in August 2008
Tracey Watts is a director of Third Wave Group. This is an abridged version of their weekly Tidal Report which can be accessed at www.thirdwavegroup.com.au
when the standard variable interest rate was 7.8 per cent leaving slightly more to spend on presents and Christmas dinner.” Seventeen per cent of respondents said they would be spending slightly less than they did in 2009, while 33 per cent would fork out significantly less on the festivities. PRDnationwide research director, Aaron Maskrey, said the general mood leading into the Christmas sales season is surprisingly upbeat. “People surveyed obviously want to enjoy the holiday season,” he said.

(43 per cent), while 24 per cent say it is because it is too hard to shift from your financial provider. Only 29 per cent say that the bigger banks are more secure, and only 18 per cent say they offer better services. The survey showed that consumers support the Federal Government’s actions to promote competition and give consumers real choice. • 79 per cent agreed that the Federal Government could be doing more to promote competition in the finance industry • 84 per cent agreed that the Federal Government should encourage policies to make shifting accounts easier • 75 per cent believed the Federal Government should push policies that support credit unions and building societies in the finance sector.

Maskrey said the survey results showed the recent rate movements by the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) and lenders hadn’t caused significant change in spending attitudes. “Despite the recent increase to interest rates, consumer sentiment levels are still higher than mid-2010 when the rates previously went up,” he said. Maskrey said on average, Australian households now need approximately 34.8 per cent of the family income to service their home loan. “People will always find spare change for the silly season,” he said.

Dear Editor, In regard to the toilet/shower facility on The Esplanade at Torquay’s Front Beach, I would like to say congratulations to the Surf Coast Shire for a very positive facility which is benefiting our community and visitors alike. I was very critical of the Gilbert Street toilet block but, in this latest instance, the shire has ‘got it right’ – well done! David Cheatley Torquay
Few trouble makers tarnish Schoolies visitors Dear Editor, Leigh from Torquay (Surf Coast Times December 7) hit the nail right on the head regarding Schoolies. It’s a shame that the few trouble makers give a bad name to all those who are out to enjoy a well deserved break after long hard years of school. From the day they arrive, the Spring Creek Reserve walking track is always strewn with bottles, cans, broken glass and rubbish from revellers going to and coming from town. And I concur, the same damage and destruction is more prevalent during the two to three weeks that Schoolies are in town, compared to any other holiday period during the year. To all Schoolies – you are welcome to share this beautiful part of the world with those of us lucky enough to live here – but please have some respect for residents and the planet on which you live. Jenny Torquay
A big thank you for my four years Dear Editor, To the people of western Victoria, it is with some sadness that I must now acknowledge that it is unlikely I will retain my seat as a Member of Parliament for Western Victoria. I would like to congratulate David O’Brien of the Nationals who now seems to have won the seat. It has been a great delight over the past four years to meet with so many people throughout Western Victoria and on occasion, to help them. I would like to thank most sincerely the people of Western Victoria for electing me four years ago. It has been the honour of my life to represent the Democratic Labor Party (DLP) and Western Victoria in Parliament. I would like to take the opportunity to wish every western Victorian a happy and fulfilling Christmas with family and friends and a wonderful 2011. Peter Kavanagh Democratic Labor Party MLC for Western Victoria 2006-2010
Editorial makes you wonder Dear Editor, How dare The Age pretend to defend Julian Assange and “the free flow of information that makes democracy possible” (The Age editorial Sunday Dec 12). Most Australians are against the war but the media promotes it. Democracy means government of the people, by the people and for the people but we need Wikileaks to make it transparent. I want to hear more cables about the coterie of evil
schemers behind the American alliance. It stinks. Yvonne Francis Apollo Bay
Esplin earned respect from CFA volunteers Dear Editor, Volunteer Fire Brigades Victoria (VFBV), representing CFA volunteers, thanks outgoing Emergency Services Commissioner, Bruce Esplin, for his work and support for emergency service volunteers over the past 10 years. In announcing his resignation, Bruce Esplin said “professional is not whether you are paid or volunteer, but how you do the work you do. By any definition Victoria’s volunteers are professional”. Bruce Esplin understood that CFA is volunteerbased, and he knew the importance of engaging and consulting with the volunteers and the communities they serve. As Victoria’s first Emergency Services Commissioner, Bruce worked to change emergency management for the better. He pressed for greater co-operation and interoperability among emergency services, enabling a world class, ‘all hazards, all agencies’ co-ordinated response capacity. His leadership of the inquiry into the 2002-03 bushfires, his consultative style with communities and volunteers, and his incisive recommendations were important in building better bushfire emergency management. Bruce respected the CFA’s volunteers and recognised their professionalism, and the volunteers feel the same way about him.

Attitudes Art Exhibition Dear Editor, We had a lovely opening night. Despite the hot, humid and stormy weather there was a very good amount of people, which made for a friendly and lively atmosphere. I always think that people take a lot of things for granted, so we had arranged with the SES for representatives to be present if possible, to speak to us about their activities. Because of the storm that evening, some of the crews were already out on calls, but our men came in their big rescue truck which created a lot of interest amongst our guests. Their presence, I am sure, created a greater awareness of their work and was a boost to our fundraising effort which continues until the end of January. We knew that they would have to leave us if they got a call for help, but they still made time to clear away a tree which had come down in the mill grounds blocking the back stairway entrance, Susanne Johns Portarlington

Gardening made easy BEACH Tree Nursery and Landscaping has branched out to become a fully fledged garden centre. The Surf Coast Highway Garden Centre now boasts a flourishing nursery, a flower shop, coffee shop, as well as a garden art shop. The melting pot of specialist alfresco and garden stores are all within a stone’s throw of each other; offering customers an easy one-stop-shop for garden improvement, gifts and snacks for the famished. Chris and Di Noble started the nursery close
to eight years ago. The couple had always shared a passion for the outdoors, the environment and native plants since their days of teaching at Geelong Grammar’s Timbertop campus when they were first married. “We didn’t want to sit in an office all day. We wanted to open a nursery with a coffee shop and gift area so that all the businesses could work off each other,” Di said. The nursery has an extensive range of flowers, herbs, trees and shrubs with a strong focus on native

and indigenous plants. “Our plants are not hot-house grown and are climatised to be strong and grow well in coastal conditions,” said Chris. Throughout December the nursery is busy selling Christmas trees. Employing eight staff, the business offers garden novices and enthusiasts a range of assistance. “We have an onsite garden design office where we can assist clients in producing plans for their dream gardens. We also have a landscaping business for transforming the plans into reality,” said Di The new shop, Pantai Garden Art, has an Asian vibe and features distinctive pieces made of limestone, teak and glass and other medium. Large stone pots, vases and vessels for the alfresco area and garden are available. The neighbouring flower shop, Beachtorq
Flowers, has an array of blooms and arrangements ready to be wrapped, as well as cards, avante garde gumboots, umbrellas and much more, while a new standalone café is almost complete. “Research shows that cafes that have a great vibe work really well in attractive garden centres,” Di said. The couple is currently looking for an inspired person/s with creative ideas to run the new café and to make it a really special place. Set in between Mt Duneed roundabout and Torquay, The Surf Coast Highway Garden Centre – open seven days a week from 10am until 5pm – is the answer to your garden, gift, floral and design woes. “We just love what we do here. The best part is the interesting people we meet. We often get to know them and build great relationships by helping them create their own unique landscape environment,” Di said.

All wrapped up at Waurn Ponds make a difference. Every five minutes, another Australian is diagnosed with cancer. While survival rates are improving every day, cancer remains a leading cause of death. That’s why it’s so important that we raise funds to fight it. “Every dollar we raise from gift wrapping this Christmas at Waurn Ponds Shopping Centre, will contribute to fundraising for the main Relay for Life event next March.” Relay for Life funds help the Cancer Council to investigate new ways to prevent, detect and treat cancers, educate communities about ways they can reduce their cancer risk, advocate for cancer control and most importantly, support people during their times of greatest need. To find out more information and how you can join Relay For Life, visit the gift wrap station outside Target or contact the Cancer Council Victoria on 9635 5000 or visit www.relayforlife.org.au

Calling all cricket legends
Research looks out for koalas PARTS of the Great Otway National Park appear to support high numbers of koalas, but over the last decade there has been concern about the health of some of the tree species the animals feed on. To explore the relationship between koala densities and the health of food sources such as the manna gum, Parks Victoria is beginning a new monitoring project. The project, based in the West Otway section of the Great Otway National Park, will provide important information on koala numbers and tree health which will guide future management. “We hope the results will help us to develop the most effective strategies to maintain sustainable koala populations as well as protect the vegetation,” said Parks Victoria environmental scientist, Mark Antos. But before new strategies can be implemented there are some questions that need answering. “We need to know how many koalas are there, where they are, and the condition of the trees they feed on,” said Peter Burns, ranger in charge for the West Otways. To answer these questions Parks Victoria researchers will use different survey methods. The health of the trees will be assessed using a method developed by the University of Ballarat, while the koala population will be estimated using a standard double count method. The research team is working with local Parks Victoria staff, scientists for the Cape Otway Centre for Conservation Ecology, as well as universities and volunteers to establish a range of monitoring sites where these methods have been tested. Over the next year it is hoped to establish ongoing monitoring sites where there are high, medium and low koala populations, and in a range of different types of forest.
ALL ASPIRING young cricket stars are being encouraged to enter the McDonald’s Little Cricket Legends competition for the chance to join Shane Warne at a cricket clinic next month. The clinic will be held on Tuesday, January 11, where 120 children aged between six and 12 will be put through their paces by Warne at Rupertswood in Sunbury. Entrants are required to submit in 25 words or less why they believe they are a ‘Little Cricket Legend’ to be a part of this opportunity of a lifetime. The winning entrants will be split into two groups and the clinics will operate in a round-robin format, giving each budding young cricket star practice in bowling, fielding and batting under the watchful eye of an Australian cricketing great. “Little Cricket Legends is a new initiative designed to encourage sportsmanship, and a healthy and active lifestyle among young Victorians at a grassroots level. This will be the first of many community-driven sporting workshops Victorians can enter in 2011,” said McDonald’s Victoria representative, Adam Kelly. “As part of McDonald’s ongoing commitment to supporting aspiring young athletes, the Little Cricket Legends is a great opportunity for Victorian cricket fans to take part in a clinic to learn and develop skills from a player like Shane Warne who’s been at the top of his game on a global scale.” Entries to the competition are open to kids aged six to 12, with 60 spaces available for children from regional Victoria, and another 60 to children in metropolitan Melbourne. The competition opened last week and entries close on Wednesday, December 22. Children in regional Victoria can enter via www.mcdonaldscricket. com.au, while children in metropolitan Melbourne are required to enter via www.sen.com.au

Grand markets, Scandinavian enchanting cities and wonderful waterways adventure
Le Maitre, with Bridget Leopold d Travel Harvey Worl
RECENTLY I spent a month travelling through beautiful Scandinavia – visiting Denmark, Sweden and Norway. All are totally different countries with varying scenery and a lot of history. I did a 16-day tour of Scandinavia. The tour started in the beautiful city of Copenhagen, where the smell and taste of Danish pastries was divine. Copenhagen has an enclosed amusement park – Tivoli Gardens – it is open during the summer months, and has a theatre, band stands, restaurants and cafes and flower gardens. At night the whole of Tivoli lights up with fairy lights and lanterns. Nuhaven was worth a visit with a picturesque harbour with boats docked and you can enjoy fresh food at the many restaurants and cafes. A lot of the cities we went to in Scandinavia had pedestrian streets with cute little cobblestone footpaths; bikes were the main transportation within the cities, with bike paths taking the place of footpaths. Throughout Scandinavia we drove through winding valleys, rugged gorges and towering mountains and took in scenic highlights and main cities and capitals. We also caught the ferry a few times which was a nice change from the coach. The cruise along the breathtaking Sognefjord in Norway was a real highlight of the tour. We also visited Hans Christian Anderson’s
home town of Odense, which is on the fairytale island of Funen, where a lot of the fairytales were made. Another main city that we visited was Oslo, the capital of Norway. It was the most expensive city in Scandinavia – an average beer costing $11 Australian dollars. Bergen, situated on the north-western coast of Norway, is a stunning city and the view from the top of Mount Floyen was spectacular. We also visited the colourful port of Bryggen, with wooden buildings that are centuries old. Next was Sweden’s capital, Stockholm, which is also known as Venice of the North as it is known for its beauty, its buildings and architecture. Stockholm ice bar was a real highlight, where we were geared up (we looked like Eskimos!), and drank out of frozen ice glasses. Overall, I would recommend Scandinavia as a great destination to travel to, with its magnificent scenery, cosmopolitan cities, and wonderful locals who were very friendly and happy to help. If you think a trip to Scandinavia might interest you, please call one of our offices for further information regarding the range of tours we have on offer.

Housing outlook bleak, says HIA A MODEST improvement in housing finance in the month of October wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t shake off a deteriorating outlook for new home building in Victoria, claims the Housing Industry Association, the voice of Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s residential building industry. HIA Victorian executive director, Gil King, said that in October the total number of seasonally adjusted loans (net of refinancing) increased by 1.7 per cent, but total lending was down by nearly four per cent over the three month period to October. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lending for construction and purchases of a new dwelling fell by 6 per cent over the three months to October. That highlights weakening conditions for residential construction in Victoria,â&#x20AC;? King said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This situation occurred before the interest rate hikes of early November. These hikes have had a considerable negative impact on sentiment and activity in the housing industry. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Against this backdrop, a constant focus on bolstering Victoriaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s housing affordability will be vital. Otherwise the weakness in residential construction we are seeing could turn into something uglier.â&#x20AC;? Over the three months to October the number of new home loans fell by six per cent in Victoria, 5.8 per cent in New South Wales, five per cent in Queensland, and 18.4 per cent in South Australia. New home loans were up over the three month period in Western Australia (1.8 per cent) and Tasmania (2.5 per cent).

Drysdale team claims silver DRYSDALEâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S Stockdale and Leggo team has won the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s national silver sales award for the last financial year. The locally owned and managed real estate agency took out the major accolade despite competing against Stockdale and Leggo agencies in metropolitan areas where median house prices are significantly higher than in the Drysdale area. Director, Daniel Lamana, and his wife Courtney, have owned the Stockdale and Leggo Drysdale office for more than six years and have established a thriving, reputable business with a successful, professional staff. Daniel said the recently presented award was based on 2009-2010 figures and the local market had continued to record good activity levels at the peak of the spring selling season. Stockdale and Leggo has reported that house prices had averaged an annual growth rate of 8.4 per cent annually over the past 30 years, compared to an inflation rate of 4.6 per cent over the same period, and 3.2 per cent over the last decade. What the figures basically add up to is that property, despite short-term fluctuations, periods of under-performance, and indeed over-performance continues to attract strong capital growth. They also highlight the importance of two factors: firstly, the most successful property transactions are those conducted with an objective, long-term perspective, rather than by knee-jerk reactions to short-term fluctuations; secondly, capitalising in any market isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t about luck, but about understanding the market through research, experience and informed advice from experts in the area. The Stockdale and Leggo team at Drysdale can be contacted at 19 Clifton Springs Road or on 5251 1566.

Stamp duty cut good news for all
Drysdale Stockdale and Leggo agency owners, Daniel and Courtney Lamana, have received a silver nationwide award for sales.

Â&#x2021; Subdivision
THE REIV has welcomed the commitment by the new State Government to cut stamp duty for all eligible first home buyers by 50 per cent over the next four years. This policy will be implemented in stages, with a 20 per cent cut on July 1, 2011 and then 10 per cent each year thereafter until 2014. We have also welcomed the commitment to maintain the existing current first home buyers grant and bonus for new homes. These policies will assist in addressing affordability for first home buyers. This means that as of July 1, 2011 the first home buyer of an established home with a value of under $600,000 will be entitled to a 20 per cent cut to stamp duty and the $7,000 First Home Buyer Grant. On a home that cost the buyer $450,000, the current stamp duty payable is $18,970. On July 1 that will drop to $15,176. In addition, the first home buyer will be entitled to the $7,000 grant. On a home that cost the buyer $565,000 the current stamp duty payable is $28,970. On July 1 that will drop to $23,176. In addition, the first home buyer will be entitled to the $7,000 grant. Buyers of a new home in metropolitan Melbourne will retain an entitlement to the bonus worth $13,000 and those buying a new home in regional Victoria will retain their entitlement to a total of $20,500. A new policy will see farmers under 35 exempt from stamp duty on the first $300,000 worth of agricultural land purchased. First home buyers who are planning to buy from the middle of next year should study the detail, including eligibility requirements, when deciding what and where to buy.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Edgeâ&#x20AC;? Every so often a daring and innovative developer steps outside the box, situated at 59 Beach Road only a short walk to the shops, beach, bowling club and Barwon health complex. Full credit must extended to the developers, architect and the builder for the sense of style, space, choice of fittings and the standard of construction in this outstanding development. This townhouse boasts three larger than normal bedrooms with opulent en-suite to the master, the remaining bedrooms offer floor to ceiling windows, access to court yards and large BIRâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. Two large living areas, rooftop deck with sweeping ocean views, chefâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kitchen with state of the art fittings, Miele appliances, plumbed for an ice maker, inbuilt bar to the lounge and reverse cycle air conditioner. Outside offers larger than normal garage with room for more than 2 cars and access through for the boat or other big toys, private court yard and well established easily maintainable gardens. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s obvious on entering this property that budget was not the ingredient in this project that moreover comforts, space and style was the object. Inspection is highly recommended so potential purchasers are able to appreciate one of the latest and desirable developments located in the ever popular old Torquay area.

The bathroom industry also grew strongly last year. The report found it was worth $4.2 billion in 2009/10, which represents a healthy 10.9 per cent increase on the previous year.

The bathroom industry
Benchtops: Engineered and stone benchtops were most popular followed by solid surface benchtops and granite benchtops. Door types: Two-pac polyurethane or colour painted doors, followed by low pressure laminate doors, were more popular in 2010. Splashbacks: Glass and engineered stone splashbacks are in. Granite and tiled splashbacks are out. Appliances: New appliances that are hot in include LCD/plasma TV’s, two-door fridges with icemakers, wine cooler/fridges, and European freestanding stoves. Tap ware: Budget tap ware and insinkerators are no longer in vouge. The fastest growth was in lever tap ware followed by multiple sinks and taps in bathrooms and premium tap ware. Sinks: Under-mount sinks continue to be the fastest growing sink, but there was also an increase in use for double-bowl sinks and square-form sinks. Water filtration systems are becoming much more popular. But on the way out are solid surface sinks, round bowl sinks, and single bowl sinks. Draws: Soft closing draws and deep and wide drawers for pots and plates are now hot. Opening door and drawer systems (included for the first time this year), and concealed garbage bin/disposal units are also popular.

In value terms, the kitchen industry was worth $6.9billion in 2009-10, which represented a strong lift of 9.2 per cent on the previous year. There were 509,400 kitchens (new and renovated) installed by Australians in 2009-10 – an increase of 7.5 per cent on the previous year. “The number of kitchen installations will struggle to grow further in the short term, particularly in light of the deteriorating outlook for new home building,” said HIA chief economist, Dr Harley Dale. “Total kitchen installations are forecast to ease by 0.6 per cent in 2010-11 before ticking up by 0.4 per cent in 2011-12 to 508,000, still slightly lower than the level reached in 200910. Nevertheless, the report predicts the value of kitchens will rise to $7.6billion in 2011-12. “We are forecasting growth of nearly 11 per cent in the total value of kitchen installations over the 2010-11 and 2011-12 periods. That is a healthy outlook.”

The kitchen industry
The number of bathrooms installed (new and renovated) was 711,200 – an increase of 9.2 per cent on the previous year. “There is likely to be a very moderate decline in bathroom installations in 2010/11, due to weakness in the new home market,” Dr Dale said. “That having been said, we are still expecting a total of 704,600 installs this year and 705,200 installs in 2011/12.”
1991/92
The HIA Kitchens and Bathrooms Report highlights the amount of money Australians spend each year on new and renovated kitchens and bathrooms and the state of industry activity. The past financial year was a positive one for the kitchen and bathroom industry. There were more than 1.2 million kitchen and bathroom installations (new and renovated) in 2009-10, and roughly the same number is predicted for the 2011-12 financial year.

Kirk’s solo extravaganza BY ELEANOR WOODS MULTI-INSTRUMENTALIST Shaun Kirk, who plays Torquay Hotel this weekend, is “taking the one-man band genre to the next level”. Kirk, who hails from Melbourne but spends his days touring the land Down Under, plays a host of instruments in his solo shows, including foot and hand percussion, harmonica, tambourine and slide guitar – sometimes all at once. “I guess guys can multi-task,” he joked. After discovering his passion for storytelling in his teens, Kirk pursued his dream of becoming a one-man band. He collected the 2006 Basin Music Festival Youth Songwriting prize, and in 2008, released his first independent EP, Seagulls. In January this year, Kirk launched his award-winning debut album, Crusin’, which was followed up with a string of gigs across the country. “I’m living the dream. I feel so lucky. I’m stoked,” the 22-year-old said. Crusin’, which features five of Kirk’s own tracks and three classic covers, took out the 2010 Victoria/Tasmania Blues Music Awards Best Debut Album and was runner-up for the Best Duo/Solo Album. Kirk’s songs are infused with tones of blue and the depths of roots and imply a mature, insightful take on life. His influences range from Bob Dylan, Robert Johnson, David Bowie, Howlin’ Wolf, Jeff Lang and John Lee Hooker, but Kirk seeks his own sound through the collaboration of instruments. “I get my inspiration from meeting people and all the colourful experiences that come with life on the road,” he said. “I have a real thing for blues, but not the sad kind. For me blues is about writing about hard experiences that have turned into a positive in some way.” The rising musician has graced the air on radio and television, and has received great support from Triple R, PBS and the ABC. He has played at the St Kilda Festival, Queenscliff Music festival, the Bellarine’s Blues Train and many, many more. He has also supported Ash Grunwald, Dallas Frasca, Marshall & The Fro, Lloyd Spiegel, Carus Thompson and Jimi Hocking. Expect a captivating experience when Kirk takes the Torquay Hotel stage, at 9pm this Saturday night. “The Torquay Show will be a lot of fun; a real good vibe,” he said. Award-winning blues and roots multi-instrumentalist Shaun Kirk plays at Torquay Hotel this Saturday.

La BohĂŠme Rhapsody FOR ME, these new wines from De Bortoli â&#x20AC;&#x201C; just maybe â&#x20AC;&#x201C; might be the heralding of a new dawn in wine appreciation in Australia. Big call I know (but then Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m known to be prone to the odd one or two!), but they speak of a style that is lighter, dryer, paler, textural, and less fruit dominant than most in the price bracket. The â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;La BohĂŠmeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; series of Yarra Valley wines are innovative and strikingly packaged â&#x20AC;&#x201C; nay, beautifully packaged. The feel (and intent) is very Euro, with a predominance leaning toward Paris circa 1880s labeling wise. This vision was derived from a trip to Europe by head winemaker at De Bortoli, Steve Webber and co., where they sipped, slurped and fell in love with the lighter, dryer, more savoury food-friendly wine styles â&#x20AC;&#x201C; in particular, those of southern France. Steve has brought a real â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;laissez faireâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; attitude to the table where the blends are what they are, with a dose of devil-may-care involved in the winemaking process. The range takes inspiration from and pays tribute to Dame Nellie Melba, Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and the Yarra Valleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own renowned 19th Century international opera diva who played â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Mimiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in the 1880s production of La BohĂŠme â&#x20AC;&#x201C; hence the name. Refreshing, delicious and captivatingâ&#x20AC;Ś why not give â&#x20AC;&#x2122;em a go this summer.

A festive farewell AS THE year draws to a close, so too does Geelong Performing Arts Centreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ever-popular Musical Mornings programme. After another year of wonderful performances including Mario Lanza â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Loveliest Night of the Year, the Colonial fun of On The Wallaby Track and the brilliant La Prima Opera in â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Ovationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, GPAC is inviting everyone to farewell 2010 and welcome the festive season this week. The two performances â&#x20AC;&#x201C; on Wednesday and Thursday â&#x20AC;&#x201C; will be the final shows for the year. Christmas Around The World is the brand-new Christmas production from Musical Mornings favourites, The Gaslight Company, combining traditional Christmas carols and some beautiful contemporary Christmas songs spiced with great humourâ&#x20AC;Ś and some very special guests! Joining The Gaslight Company on stage will be the Geelong Welsh Ladies Choir. Producer/director Chris McKenna has been working with the local choir to integrate their performance into the show, utilising special musical charts developed by Kevin Hocking. This unique performance is part of GPAC and Diversitatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s commitment to presenting culturally diverse entertainment as part of the Musical Mornings programme. It also provides a great opportunity for the Geelong Welsh Ladies Choir to work with a professional company. In 2011, Musical Mornings promises two
new seasons of peerless performers and great entertainment, beginning with Season One in February as audiences will be treated to a dazzling new treatment of Gilbert & Sullivanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most popular musical, The Mikado. In March, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be tapping along with the Air Force Band and their repertoire of classics, musical theatre, cinema and swing, while April sees the return of one of Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most loved entertainers as Julie Anthony performs in concert accompanied by Kevin Hocking. Martine Pavey and her three-piece band return in May with the unforgettable Divas, while John Bowles wraps up the season with My Life in the Musicals, joined by long-time friend Michelle Fitzmaurice. Musical Mornings concerts are held in The Playhouse at GPAC on Wednesdays and Thursdays at 10.30am. There is free morning tea available to patrons before the show, along with delightful pre-show performers and exhibits in the GPAC foyer, presented by the regionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s various cultural communities with thanks to Diversitat and the Department of Plannning and Community Development.

La BohĂŠme â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Act Oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Sauvignon/ Semillon/ Rolle 2010 ($18)
A slight twist to the normal Australian Sauvignon Blanc/Semillon blend with the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Rolleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; (AKA â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Vermentinoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;) adding lighter, subtle dry, savoury textures and complexities. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot to like about this wine, with a bit of everything there to please most palates and is best served with food. Terrific stuff.
La BohĂŠme â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Act Twoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Dry Pinot RosĂŠ 2010 ($18)
Chilled, dry, pale rosĂŠ is catching on in a big way. This very Europeaninspired style has delicate Pinot Noir aromatics (boosted by the minor addition of Pinot Gris), juicy strawberry-like flavour with a definite savouriness and slight nutty character that complements the overall textural feel. Delicious drinking and just made for fun in the sun yet itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not at all frivolous.
La BohĂŠme â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Act Threeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Pinot Gris and â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Friendsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 2010 ($18)
Unfortunately this wine was unavailable for tasting at time of press, but from all reports is another stunner in the vein of the previous two with the theme being â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;fresh, crisp and deliciousâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a blend of 90 per cent Pinot Gris and the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;friendsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; component incorporates the use of Riesling and Gewurtztraminer. I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wait to try it!

MANY people have their own fish story – you know, about the ‘one that got away’. Well, I have my own oyster story and it involves a bear that got away. Some years ago we were lucky enough to have a very short trip to Canada, where together with two very dear friends we bare-boat chartered a small sailboat to mooch around in a marine park not far north of Vancouver. Lots of protected little coves to explore, we were under motor most days as there was not enough wind to fill the sails. We moored late one afternoon and the two ‘boys’ rowed over to the shore some 200 metres away in the small dinghy we towed, to try their luck at prising any oysters they could find off the rocks at the shoreline. Triumphant, they came back holding aloft two five gallon plastic buckets full of oysters – many of the shells were as big as my hand! We all took turns to open some of them, and enjoyed these flinty tasting molluscs simply with a squeeze of lemon, black pepper and a cold beer. Only 15 minutes after our hunter-gatherers had clambered back on board, and we were busily shucking, we looked back to the grassy shoreline to see a huge black grizzly, feeding on the salmonberries (trees) basically in the same spot! It goes without saying we were very pleased the bear did not happen upon our private cove any earlier. Or that grizzlies are not fond of oysters! But more to the point, we have from our own waters the famous
OYSTERS ALIVE!
Sydney Rock Oysters, Coffin Bay in South Australia and Coles Bay in Tasmania – these are just a few of the premier sites where oysters are farmed. My only lament is that we cannot readily buy un-opened oysters? Oysters still in their shell will remain fresh and alive for up to two weeks if kept in damp hessian, in a cool place. The taste of oysters will vary depending on their origin, and time of year. They are probably best eaten in the raw, the oyster that is, not you – although recently it has been categorically proven that Casanova was right – the 50 or so oysters he breakfasted on did trigger increased levels of the ‘sex hormones’ due to the high zinc content of shellfish, including mussels and clams. If nothing else, I hope this article will encourage you to try oysters in the many and varied ways they can be served. If you have never eaten a freshly shucked oyster, do so, soon! You’ll be amazed at the fresh taste of the sea, which explodes in your mouth – truly fragrant and memorable. Once an oyster is opened and left in the refrigerator – even for a day – they die and lose their beautiful juices. Learning to shuck an oyster is not that difficult, just protect your hand with a cloth, and invest in an oyster knife or shucker to do the job. Your fishmonger may even be happy to open them for you just when you buy them from him. If eating them raw is just more than you can cope with, try steaming them for a few moments on the ½ shell with a dash of soy, ginger, sesame oil and wasabe combined together.
WARM OYSTERS IN CHAMPAGNE AND CHIVE SAUCE (Recipe source - Gabriel Gate – serves 6 as an entrée) INGREDIENTS 36 freshly opened oysters 2 large shallots, very finely chopped 40ml (2 tablespns) red wine vinegar 150ml sparkling white wine 2 teaspns cream 100g butter cut into small cubes 2 teaspn finely cut chives
METHOD Pre-heat oven to 100 degrees Celsius. Remove oysters from shells and place in a bowl. Wash the shells and place on an oven tray in the oven to warm. Place shallots, vinegar and half the wine into a small saucepan over a low heat and cook until the liquid has almost all evaporated. Stir in the cream, bring to simmer and gradually whisk in the butter. Season with salt and pepper and set aside. Pour the remaining wine into a small pan and bring to the boil. Add oysters, shake the pan to distribute the heat and cook for only 20 seconds but avoid boiling. The oysters will become a little plumper. Drain and spoon oysters into the shells. Spoon a little sauce over each oyster and season with some extra pepper. Sprinkle with chives and serve immediately.

TORQUAY’S Front Beach Café is launching a new series of wines perfect for summer sipping. The Rosemount Botanicals series features a variety of wine styles infused with subtle floral and fruit notes, driven by nature. Waitress Lana Roche encouraged patrons to roll in and enjoy the relaxed atmosphere, great food and excellent coffee the café had to offer. “Front Beach Café is a really down to earth, friendly and relaxed place. All kinds of people are welcome here,” she said. Manager Sally Tranter said the café, which is a stone’s throw from the sandy shores of Torquay Beach, was “the place to come”. “People can enjoy a nice bite to eat, a cold wine or beer and a great view,” Tranter said. The new Rosemount Botanicals wine range, which will be launched in the New Year, is the perfect summer drink. The range includes a Chardonnay infused with green apple and cucumber. “It is so refreshing. I don’t usually drink Chardonnay, but I love this,” Tranter said. The range also offers, a Pinot Grigio infused with blood orange and rosewater and a Sauvignon Blanc infused with lemon and elderflower. The menu will also have a variety of light summer meals on offer as well as wonderful Amanti coffee and cakes. The Front Beach Café is on The Esplanade and open from 9am until late every day except Christmas Eve (closed from 5pm) and Christmas Day (closed all day).

START the new year with some magic and intrigue, revenge and romance, comedy and song as OZACT brings its production of The Tempest to Lorneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Qdos Sculpture Garden. Two performances will be held â&#x20AC;&#x201C; on New Yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day and Sunday, January 2 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; in the picture-perfect setting at Qdos. The sculpture garden is a spectacular setting, surrounded by the Great Otway National Park, a unique moderate climate rainforest, with towering eucalyptus trees and abundant native birds and wildlife. The architectural and natural elements of the setting provide a perfect setting for the production. As Prospero raises his staff and summons the spirits of the sky, a mighty tempest forms. The quarreling survivors of a terrible shipwreck washed up on a lonely shore are confronted by this strange and embittered enchanter, his beautiful daughter, and their strange associates, heralding a journey of dramatic adventure, swirling passions, confrontations and reconciliations.

Women the key to menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s health WOMEN are key in driving men to see the doctor when it comes to embarrassing menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s health issues, according to the GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) Health Index released recently. The latest GSK Health Index surveyed 1,005 men and 1,003 women about menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s health issues and revealed nearly 70 per cent of men experiencing symptoms below the belt confided in their partner about their symptoms with 69 per cent of these men compelled to consult a doctor after their partner asked them to. Despite admitting their symptoms affect their sleep, ability to work, relationship and sex life, and one third of men incorrectly believing their symptoms are an untreatable natural part of ageing, 48 per cent have not sought medical advice and 34 per cent of men are not able to identify where their prostate is. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This research is encouraging and goes against the belief that men donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t listen to anything their partner says,â&#x20AC;? said Dr Camilla Chong, medical director at GSK. â&#x20AC;&#x153;However, it is important that men not only speak with their partners, but also listen to the advice by following through and seeing the doctor.â&#x20AC;? The reliance upon advice from their partners on health issues comes none too soon, with nearly 20 per cent admitting to having no idea about health issues like prostate cancer, bowel cancer or benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged prostate). The survey also found women mistakenly believe their partners donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t listen to what they say when it comes to health advice. Surprisingly, 52 per cent of women believe their request for their partner to go see the doctor has been ignored, and 38 per cent of women feel like their partners werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t confiding in them, suspecting their partners have symptoms and havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been told about them.

Go pink for a good cause IGA STORES throughout the country will join forces with the McGrath Foundation to donate 30 cents from every pack of Bakers Oven Raspberry Lamington Fingers sold from January 10 to February 6 to the foundation. The funds raised will go towards the placement of McGrath Breast Care Nurses in communities right around Australia and increasing breast awareness in younger women. There are currently 55 McGrath Breast Care Nurses located in areas as far reaching as Hervey Bay (Queensland), Geraldton (Western Australia), Armidale (New South Wales), Warrnambool and Whyalla (South Australia), providing an invaluable health resource and support for Australian families experiencing breast cancer. The McGrath Foundationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Tracy Bevan said she is excited to see the fifth in-store IGA fundraising activity taking place around the country in January. â&#x20AC;&#x153;IGA has been a wonderful friend to the McGrath Foundation over the past two years, hosting pink fundraising activities for us, with everything from the sale of pink lady apples, pink mud cakes, M&Ms and now raspberry lamington fingers,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Having raised over $120,000 so far for the McGrath Foundation, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re thrilled to see this friendship continue to grow, as it is a true example of a friendship that makes a difference in the community.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;IGA retailers across Australia are pleased to again be involved in this McGrath Foundation initiative. This January we raised
$12,500 for the McGrath Foundation through the sale of over 31,000 pink chocolate mud cakes so we hope to raise even more money next year,â&#x20AC;? said IGA national chairman, Mick Daly. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sadly, many Australian women and their families undergo a breast cancer experience so we hope that by raising funds through our network of over 1,300 IGA stores we will be able to support the McGrath Foundation in carrying out its vital work of supporting Australian women and their families by providing even more McGrath
SURFCOAST CHIROPRACTIC CLINIC
Breast Care Nurses where they are really needed.â&#x20AC;? Through the IGA Community Chest and associated programmes, independent retailers from across Australia have raised in excess of $54million for local communities, charities and worthy causes over the last eight years. Be sure to look out for the IGA limited edition Bakers Oven Raspberry Lamington Fingers to help raise money for a worthy cause. Lamingtons will be available in-store from January 10.

Making things clearer for the community AUSTRALIAN Hearing is excited to introduce Scott Pasquill as the principal audiologist of its Torquay site. Australian Hearing is a government agency which delivers hearing services to clients eligible under the Australian Government Hearing Services Programme. Pasquill (pictured) said a career in healthcare was on his radar because he wanted to help people. He joined Australian Hearing at their Geelong centre in January and moved to the Torquay centre due to the large demand for hearing services in the area. Working in Torquay gives Pasquill the chance to meet new clients as well as building ongoing relationships with his current clients. Australian Hearing has been helping people hear since 1947, and was first established to provide
services to veterans who suffered hearing damage during World War II, along with children whose hearing was affected by the rubella epidemic of the late 1940s. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Helping people with their hearing needs is my top priority,â&#x20AC;? Pasquill said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hearing problems are unique and we all have different lifestyles, so I work with each client to come up with the best outcome for their needs.â&#x20AC;? Hearing loss is a gradual process which often goes undetected. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lots of older people may feel embarrassed about having a hearing loss because they maybe shy or self conscious,â&#x20AC;? Pasquill said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But modern devices are discreet and have technological features that adapt to a wearerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lifestyle.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would recommend people who suspect they may have a hearing loss or knows someone who might have one to get their hearing checked. It is great to see the positive difference that hearing can make to peoplesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; lives.â&#x20AC;? Australian Hearing is providing weekly visiting services at Barwon Health, 100 Surf Coast Highway, Torquay, and can ben contacted by phoning 5222 1277. Australian Hearing provides services to aged pensioners, veterans, Indigenous people over 50 and children under 21. You can check your hearing using TelscreenTM, Australian Hearingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s over-the-phone hearing test. Call the toll free number 1800 826 500 and follow the prompts. For more information, visit www.hearing.com. au
Tis the season for asthma THE NATIONAL Asthma Council Australia is warning the two million plus Aussies with asthma to approach Christmas with caution this year as the seasonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s many hidden asthma triggers could be enough to start you wheezing. According to the council, Christmas this year could be particularly problematic with the hay fever season lingering due to recent rains and a prolonged grass growing season and widespread thunderstorm activity, which can stir up pollen in the air, increasing its potency.
Even the humble Christmas tree â&#x20AC;&#x201C; real and fake â&#x20AC;&#x201C; can harbour hidden asthma triggers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Most people are unaware that Cypress and pine trees produce high amounts of pollen and pollen can trigger hay fever symptoms and asthma, especially when the trees are displayed indoors,â&#x20AC;? said Kristine Whorlow, National Asthma Council Australia chief executive officer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Artificial trees may seem like a safe alternative, but these trees are often used year after year and they can accumulate dust and even

extremes of emotions, including stress and laughter. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you have asthma itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important to be aware of your asthma triggers and avoid them if possible. You should also continue to follow the personal written asthma action plan that you have developed with your doctor,â&#x20AC;? Whorlow said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At this time of the year, make sure you have your medication with you and take it as advised by your doctor, even if you are out partying or away on holidays.â&#x20AC;?

To minimise the Christmas wheeze, the National Asthma Council Australia recommends vacuuming artificial trees and decorations as you get them out of the box, unpacking them outside if possible and wiping down artificial trees before putting them up inside. Other potential triggers that are likely to be encountered during the festive season include dusty decorations, highly scented candles and

What makes models like the new RS 170 so special is ground-breaking ‘Kleer’ technology. For the first time, Kleer wirelessly transmits digital audio to the headset putting it on par with wired headphones, and streets ahead of old analogue models, when it comes to fidelity. It’s an end to the hiss and fuzz that has plagued wireless headphones from the very beginning. Wireless headphones are now a great way to listen to the music or television shows that you enjoy at your own volume level – without disturbing anybody else. The best thing about the Sennheiser range at this time of year is our buying power. Save $100 on the RS170 and pay just $349 until Christmas.
Note: iPhone4 not included
// A high-tech Christmas from SONOS! The S5 is a high-performance, all-in-one wireless music system that delivers crystal-clear, room-filling sound. The 5-driver speaker system is individually powered by 5 dedicated digital amplifiers for high-quality sound that rivals much larger audio equipment. To start playing music, a “ZoneBridge” connects to your router, and then the S5 works wirelessly. Several S5s can actually network together to conveniently distribute music wirelessly throughout your home. Simply plug an S5 in wherever you want music and enjoy. There are even zone players that attach to your existing Hi-Fi system.
Merry Christmas from Steve Bennett HiFi
Sonos S5 is available in black or white and sells for $699. It is very easy to setup and, with a bonus ZoneBridge (a saving of $189) until Christmas, all you need is your WiFi network and iPod touch or iPhone and SONOS’ free App to get started. An add-on ‘dock’ is available for $199.

LITHIUM IRON PHOSPHATE GOLF BATTERY // // I was horrified to see my 80+ parents lifting four, toxic, 19kg golf batteries in and out of the car to drive their golf scooters. Something had to change and it has. We have brought in, 4kg non-toxic golf batteries to replace them.
Harvey Norman Waurn Ponds 33 Princess Hwy Ph 5240 6200
WOOD PELLET BBQ // // Cooks to Perfection with flavour you can’t resist
A Lithium Iron Phosphate Long Life Battery (LiFePO4) lasts a lot longer than lead acid Batteries. Over 2000 recharges. Eco-friendly. Suitable for Golf Trolleys/ Buggies, Scooters, motorised wheelchairs, camp fridges and lights, solar power storage, and the list goes on. Made with Lithium Iron Phosphate.....LiFEPO4 (Our Battery has more LiFe!). One third the weight of Lead Acid Batteries. No more back-breaking walks to the car or Clubhouse. Safe Technology will not catch fire,explode or produce dangerous gas. Absolutely Maintenance Free for the Life of the battery, Over 2000 or more recharges compared to Lead Acid Batteries with only 300 or more recharges, Virtually flat discharge rate means maximum power available during discharge whereas Lead Acid Batteries lose power faster as they discharge. Our Battery has an protective Circuit (BMS Battery management System) which means it can never be overcharged or deep discharged. We designed this battery to cover 36 holes on your average golf course, although we recommend recharging the battery after each 18 holes.
How the Traeger Works All natural wood pellets are poured into the hopper. When you turn the switch the hot rod activates for about 4 minutes, igniting the pellets from the hopper to the firepot where convection air is added, acting like a miniature forge. Heat & wood smoke surround the food resulting in a fantastic taste. Drippings are channeled out of the cooking chamber into an external bucket for easy disposal. Flipping the switch to 450 allows you to grill. 300 you can slow cook. 180 setting allows you to hot-smoke food. In the ‘smoke’ mode, the grill delivers an even smoke to your food without having to tend the fire. Traeger gives you the convenience of gas and the flavour of real wood. Digital Thermometer Control The operating temperature of the grill is controlled by a patented electronic control board. The digital thermostat control allows you to set the desired temperature. The RTD (Resistance Temperature Detector) monitors the cooking temperature inside the grill and reports it on the red LED display. When additional heat is needed, the auger is activated to feed the fire and increase the cooking temperature. Using this technology, precise temperatures can be maintained for hours on end.

Conscientious Capricorns – your perfectionist side is likely to go into overdrive this week as retro Mercury, Mars and Pluto all hook up in your sign. Avoid taking on too many commitments (and remember that perfection is a goal, not a destination). Family and friends are happy to help lighten the load so don’t be too proud to ask for assistance.
Your words and actions have the power to affect others deeply, so think carefully before you open your mouth or make a move. With the Sun stimulating your adventure zone, it’s time for a walk in the park, a weekend in the country or a visit to your local travel agent. Stretch yourself in exciting new directions – physically, mentally and spiritually.
Don’t dwell on what might have been. Venus promises love, but you have to leave the past behind and be open to new ways of relating in the future. When one door closes, another opens. Moving onto fresh romantic pastures has you back in the saddle of love again. Attached Crabs - resist the urge to stir the pot and bring up old grievances.
Are you overwhelmed by all the jobs that need to be done at home? It’s time to hone your handyman/woman skills as you tackle overdue DIY projects and complete unfinished work. Don’t expect family members to be happy with the results though! With Venus in your money zone, you’re keen to to hit the shops and grab some pre-Xmas bargains.
One-on-one relationships are set to blossom, as diplomatic Venus (temporarily) patches up problems with loved ones. Slow down and listen carefully to what they have to say. If you are attached, it’s time to up the romance factor and make your partner feel extra special. The more adaptable you are, the more enjoyable the weekend will be.
Your playful side is highlighted. So it’s a great time to connect with the child within (and the children around you) as you laugh, play and enjoy yourself with loved ones. You’re not a fan of Uranus upsetting your carefully created plans but sometimes a shake-up is needed so you see things from a fresh perspective. Sunday is one of those days.
Many Scorps will be intensely preoccupied with exchanging gossip, trading witty emails or flirting with someone special. However, with Mercury in retro motion, tone down what you say and write, or you could unintentionally upset someone. Venus is visiting your sign, so turn up the charm as you captivate others with your smooth Scorpio style.
Your stars encourage impulse shopping and making hasty financial decisions. So, before you buy anything this week, stop and think “Do I really need this?” If the answer is no, then put your money away and keep on walking. Unpredictable Uranus sends a curved ball in your direction on Sunday – which is just the way you like it!
You’re keen to zoom ahead but remember there’s a fine line between making smart snap decisions and being recklessly rash. Singles – love and work are lusciously linked so make sure you’ve got plenty of lipstick or aftershave in your briefcase. When it comes to professional projects, double-check you’ve done all the research required.
This week’s stars highlight obsessive, fussy behavior (something you’re familiar with!) but try not to sweat the small stuff and make mountains out of molehills. Creative business strategies are favored, as you find clever ways to make your money work harder. A disciplined approach will transform the financial picture – it will just take some time.
Are you suffering from aspiration exasperation? Does it seem as if your dreams are constantly dashed or put on hold? Saturn is asking you to review and modify your wish list, and then do the hard work required to make those dreams come to fruition. Talking isn’t the same as doing – you have to roll your sleeves up and get your hands dirty.
Expect group situations to be super intense this week, as everyone tries to have their say – and words and motives are misinterpreted. When it’s your turn to speak, make sure you do so clearly and concisely. Saturday favors creative and spiritual Piscean pursuits as you connect with your inner muse, listen to your intuition and follow your dreams.

JAN JUC Beach will host some of Victoria and South Australia’s strongest boardriders this weekend. Australia’s Boardriding Club Teams Challenge, the Jim Beam SurfTag will be battled out at the beach this Saturday. The Jim Beam Series runs throughout Australia and the top clubs from each state will go on to compete in the national final, which will be held in Sydney, in early February. The strong Torquay Boardriders Club is tipped to win the Saturday event. Nic Muscroft, Troy Brooks and Jack Perry are all competing, having completed their overseas professional surfing commitments for the year. The team will be at full strength and are excited to take the opportunity to shine at the local venue. The biggest challengers on Saturday are likely to come from Phillip Island, South Australia’s Seaford Club and Mornington Peninsula. The Jim Beam Manufacturers Cup will also be held on the weekend with Ocean Grove-based Cory Surfboards set to take on the all powerful Island Surfboards. Island team were Australian Champions a few years ago but don’t under estimate the Cory team who have Adam Robertson on their side. The Cory team also features Josh Johnson Baxter, Ben Collier and Cahill Bell Warren.

WELL, we are not done with the bad weather yet, but still managed to play some good golf this week. Tuesday, and the Men of Port celebrated Christmas with a stableford round followed by fun and frivolity over a wonderful lunch. We still had time to congratulate players returning some great scores. 43 points was the best score returned by 3 players. Dereck Wright, Reg Perkins and Tavea Sauni all played well while Max Boyle and Laurie Walsh both 41. Wednesday it was the women turn to celebrate, and they did, music man and all. Thunder storms put an end to their fun game, but inside and dry, they enjoyed a sumptuous feast toasting each other goodwill of the season. Thursday with the weather surprisingly sunny had the members and guests playing Stableford where Derek Hunter won with a terrific 45 with ex-club president, Barry Ruler taking the 11 hole comp with 42.

comp with 41 points while Geoff King had to be content with runner-up after finishing with 40 points. The nearest the pins went to Graeme Hardy and John McKoy. On Saturday, the radar was closely watched as the sun shone, but heavy downpours continued all morning and no-one could work out what the weather pattern was going to do next. In a howling wind, playing in the afternoon group, Steve Troon won the day with 42 points while Alan Hartley won A grade with 41 points. Wayne Monaghan won NTP on the 5th, while Luke Vassallo took the honours on the 7th. Emad Youseff hit a fabulous shot to win NTP on the 13th and Jason Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Meara won NTP on the 17th.
Scott and Lisa Reade won the front nine with 45 points while the trio of Sally Ludlow, Judi Bullock and Christine Yelland combined brilliantly to win the back nine with 47 points. Ros Baylis won NTP on the 7th hole. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great to see a regular group of women playing on a Saturday and it is hoped that more will join. Carol McDonald won the Saturday comp with 38 points.
Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s competition There was plenty of festive cheer on Thursday with the women holding their Christmas break up to mark the end of the season. A womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Irish 3 ball event was held over nine holes, followed by a scrumptious Christmas lunch. The team of Kathy Simson, Ann
Twilight golf This Friday the traditional Twilight Golf Christmas break up will be held and fingers crossed the weather stays fine after the previous event was washed out! Tee times are available from 4pm with players competing in a stableford event on either the front or back nine. Non-playing members and guests are most welcome to attend the dinner that follows. Happy golfing!

Project update Excavation work has continued and we can now see a massive hole where the buildings with underground car parks will be situated. From that hole in the ground a clubhouse and five-storey motel will eventuate. Yes, VCAT has approved RACVâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s application for a fifth level. This will take the number of motel rooms to 92 which is a significant increase on what was conveyed to the members early on in proceedings.

Competition golf is available every day except Mondayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and even if comps are not what you are looking for, with daylight saving, there will be ample time after the players hit off to enjoy all that Portarlington has to offer. Thought for the weekâ&#x20AC;Ś You can hit a two acre fairway 10 per cent of the time and two inch branch 90 per cent of the time!
FROM THE PRO SHOP
THE PRO shop says farewell today to a valued colleague who will be very much missed, not only by pro shop staff but also by members of The Sands. After five years in the pro shop, Matt Stewart is embarking on a career change and we wish him well in his new position at the Big 4 Holiday Park on the Bellarine Peninsula. While his good humour and affable nature will be missed in the pro shop, his driving skills will not Whilst driving the golf carts Matt has managed to re-design the ball machine, and a number of outside structures that were cemented in place! His new employers have been forewarned! Members have had to battle some pretty tricky conditions this week, and once again mother nature has thrown everything down; rain, hail, wind, sun and plenty of humidity!

FROM THE
mat
With Torquay Bowls Club
GUESS what? Players fronted on Saturday for their game of pennant bowls and all was looking rosy – until the opposition arrived, and then the rain. Yes, it is the sixth time in 11 weeks that we have had washouts, with the lunchtime downpour rendering the greens unplayable within 15 minutes. However, while the pennant players continue to tear out their hair (and some don’t have a lot to spare), the barefooters are making the most of the club. The club is rapidly becoming the venue of choice for Christmas break-ups, weddings, parties and just about everything. To see some of the beginners taking to the game – and the performances of many of our Twilighters – it would appear that the future of lawn bowls in our town is assured. Added to this, the club has just completed its school programme for this year, which attracted a group of Year 6 students from Torquay College. Some of these youngsters showed the eye-hand co-ordination and physical flexibility to make older members green with envy. The club runs the bowls as part of its community engagement efforts.
Now also is the time to brace for the annual influx of holiday-makers, many of them bowlers who fill out our team sheets, keep the bar busy and enjoy our bargain Friday night dinners. On the subject of holidays, the club wishes all of its generous sponsors and people who frequent the clubhouse a Merry Christmas and a safe and healthy New Year.
Torquay College students from left, Mitchell Schafer, 11, James Reither, 12, Jack Stanton, 11, and Gryan Miers, 11, have been bowling as part of the school’s Community Sport Program.
Golf ladies think pink ONE hundred and twenty eight ladies teed off for Thirteenth Beach Pink Ladies Christmas Golf Day. It was a sea of pink at the annual People@Work Pink Ladies’ Christmas Golf Day, last Monday. Tickets for the popular event, which raises awareness and funds for the Breast Cancer Network of Australia, sold out within 24 hours of going on sale. Organisers were thrilled with event, which raised more than $18,000 for the cause. The winning team was from 13th Beach with a
Sail into summer TORQUAY Sailing Club is conducting a youth sailing program in the lead up to Christmas. During the programme, youths will learn basic sailing skills in a fun group environment. The four-day course, from December 20 until December 23, will teach young people how to use the sailing schools’ Hobie Wave catamarans. The course costs $120 and runs from 9am until 12pm daily and is open to ages youths aged eight to 17-years-old. The rain has played havoc with the building works of clubs new sailing shed. The work was delayed and will not commence until just before Christmas. While the delay is a little frustrating the end outcome is going to be fantastic with vastly improved storage and a safe upstairs area for monitoring and viewing sailing activities. Racing has been up and running on Sunday afternoons at Torquay with the fleet being a mixture of Hobie 16s, Hobie 14s and Hobie 18s. Recent racing has seen father-son combination Tim and James Norris being hard to beat. Sailing on a Hobie 16 they’ve been the clear leader and won the Angus Belton Trophy race. If you want to get involved with sailing but don’t own a boat, Torquay Sailing Club can help you get on the water. There are easy to sail Hobie Wave, sea kayaks and stand up paddleboards for hire. The club also has some older style Hobie 14’s free for members use. For additional information on any of the above visit www.torquaysailingclub.org.au or call Chris on 0418 543 220.

WELL, Christmas is almost upon us, holiday-makers are almost ready to descend upon our coast to enjoy what to many is there summer playground. Retail stores are only too ready to gladly open their doors and help you enjoy the festive season even that little bit more. This time of the year is the time when people create memories of the great holidays they have… ones they remember for many years to come. Fishing is a major part of that fun on the coast, you will see more boats than ever on the water trying to find that elusive big catch, with our coastal waters fishing better than ever and producing some great fish this is not surprising. The practices that are now in place help ensure the sustainability of our waters with most if not almost all fisherman doing the right things. Howeverm there is always a small percentage who fail to follow the rules and fisheries request should you see any such improper behaviour taking place that you call them. Fisheries officers issued fines to some recreational anglers on the weekend as part of a wide ranging blitz to enforce snapper bag limits and other regulations.
Executive director of Fisheries Victoria, Anthony Hurst, said all the indications were that the snapper season was showing great promise, with good quantities of fish between three and five kilograms and a good run of smaller fish in the one to two kilogram range. “Victorian anglers can enjoy a world-class fishery due to favourable conditions and sustainable fisheries management,” Hurst said. “The future of the fishery depends on everyone who targets snapper, whether recreationally or commercially, understanding their rights and responsibilities.” We all want to see our fisheries remain sustainable and to be able to continue to fish as we have for years, so we can teach our children and they in turn can teach theirs so they can learn how to fish responsibly for their future.
