a threat to the community,” Cr Cherry said.

“As soon as Council was notified of the horrific attack, it has put considerable resources into investigating to try to get to the bottom of this incident.

“There is a strong burden of proof on Council to ensure we get the right dog as in such circumstances the dog will be declared dangerous and may be euthanised.”

Cr Cherry said it was important that Council use all available powers to prevent this from happening again.

“A dog that can do this to cattle, could do this to a child and we will do everything in our power to make sure it cannot happen again,” she said.

“My heart goes out to Mr Crosthwaite and his family. To lose animals in such a violent and senseless way is more than an impact on his business, it affects us all and Council will not tolerate irresponsible dog ownership.”

By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE Council will not tolerate irresponsible dog ownership says Deputy Mayor Chris Cherry, who said her heart goes out to the Crosthwaite family following the horrific domestic dog attacks on the family’s cattle recently.

Cr Cherry’s comments follow a report in The Weekly (April 16 page 3) highlighting several domestic dog attacks on the Crosthwaite’s dairy cows since 2018.

The injuries inflicted to the cattle were too graphic to print and have shocked locals with many now calling for the dogs involved to be put down (see letters page).

Cr Cherry has been following the issue closely and has been in contact with the family to explore the best way forward.

“There was insufficient proof as to the dog’s ownership in the 2018 attack and as such, although it was investigated, Council could not issue a dangerous dog notice,” she said.

“In 2019, the dog owner was fined and ordered to keep the animal contained.”

The 2019 attack resulted in Mr Crosthwaite building a fence for the dog owner to contain the animal. But this did little to prevent the attacks coming from another set of domestic dogs more recently.

“It appears this is a different dog this time and Council is doing the full investigation and will take all necessary actions to ensure this dog cannot remain

By Jonathon Howard AFTER MONTHS of concerns from Crystal Creek locals that Korns Crossing Bridge on Numinbah Road was in “dire need of replacing”, Member for Tweed Geoff Provest has answered the call and announced the bridge will close to all traffic for six days for major repairs.

Mr Provest said detours will add up to 20 minutes of travel time for locals but were “necessary to ensure work could safely be carried out to repair the bridge”.

“A routine inspection detected damage to the bridge’s support structure in November last year,” Mr Provest said.

Preliminary work will be carried out from Monday, April 27, to Friday, May 1, and includes setting up scaffolding and some steel work, with traffic control in place for the safety of workers and motorists.

The bridge will then be closed to all traffic from 8am Monday, May 4, to 5pm Saturday, May 9.

5G hysteria

There seems to be a constant stream of letters regarding the impacts of 5G on human health. It is claimed there are thousands of scientists and hundreds of studies warning of the harmful effects of radiation from mobile phone towers. Unfortunately there are no peer reviewed studies by reputable institutions or scientists named.

While it is prudent to be cautious, there is no reason to spread hysteria in the absence of evidence.

I would suggest doing your own research, which doesn’t mean reinforcing your worst fears in the nearest online echo chamber.

Have a search for “Dr Karl 5G” where our favorite scientist on the ABC explains the science behind 5G for the average Joe. This may help to free you of your 5G nightmares.

Dog owners should pay

My heart goes out to Mr Crosthwaite and his beautiful cattle.

How can people live with these bloodthirsty dogs and call them pets? It’s beyond me. I pray they will be found and destroyed.

Maybe we should throw them to the lions. The owner must be prosecuted and make reparations.

How can we sleep at night knowing this is happening?

Erolyn Hogarth, Byangum

Shocked by attacks on cattle

It was horrible to read the article about the dogs attacking the Crosthwaite’s dairy cows.

I can’t even imagine what it would have been like for them seeing and hearing the cows being attacked. I’m sure I will have nightmares about it.

Residential estates are encroaching on farms, beaches and forests, all of which have animals and birds that were there long before the housing developments. I do think they can coexist but the people that live in the

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

estates should be held responsible for their animals whether it be a dog or a cat. You can’t have a pool without a fence, maybe people should have fences checked by the council before they’re allowed to have a dog.

I read in The Weekly the story of the dog that attacked a horse at the beach and one that killed an old man’s small dog outside a cafe – people need to be responsible for their dogs when they go out with them too.

I do have another thing I’m concerned about and that is the section of Old Lismore Road between Hundred Hills and North Arm Road that I walk or drive every day. I can’t understand why that small section of road has never been fixed up considering there is a school so close – usually new subdivisions have good infrastructure. I have seen school kids riding and walking up that section and I’m surprised no one has been hit by a car. If two cars are passing there is nowhere to get off the road unless you dive into the slippery leaves in the ditch.

When physical goes mental

In January my ears pricked when China announced a new coronavirus was discovered. With the confines of the world now so easy to reach I predicted that through air transportation (mostly) coronavirus will arrive upon Australian firma and decimate our health and financial system. However, in the west, we took a ‘she’ll be alright’ attitude to our detriment, eventually closing off our island borders to planes and even cumbersome ships.

In February I was using the term physical distancing (1.5 metres), however the authorities that be keep using the term social distancing and rarely the contrary. Why? To control the masses maybe?

People are quite paranoid to converse whether shopping or exercising out of fear they will be pounced upon by the authorities for having a social tine (even at three metres distancing). So lonely people are more lonely and the rest are getting it.

Oh, and six months last month is still six months this month.

Anzac Day tribute poems

As a proud descendant of a WWI Field Ambulance stretcher bearer who I knew for over 30 years, let me assure readers that Dennis Scanlon’s statement on p17 of the Tweed Valley Weekly of April 16, that “wounded soldiers got down

the steep, rocky slopes of Gallipoli to first aid tents – mostly on the back of a humble donkey” is rubbish.

The great majority of wounded soldiers were carried to aid stations by their fellow diggers flat out on stretchers. The number of diggers whose wounds were sufficiently slight that they were able to sit up on a donkey and lean on the handler were comparatively small.

Ken Window, Pottsville

The good, the bad and the ugly of COVID-19

Outside of people becoming sick and some dying, here’s what I see as the worst and best outcomes so far.

Neighbours dobbing in neighbours (to settle old scores) under the pretence of government distancing rules; the meanness and bitterness of some in Pottsville and Cabarita calling the cops because cars with Queensland number plates had parked in their suburb so occupants could go to the beach (that they think they own); the car jacking and the spitting upon fellow Australians of Asian descent?

But the most appalling of all COVID-19 consequences surely must be the German zoo, now closed like other zoos, which recently announced it may have to feed animals to other animals because there is no income (500,000 Euros a week) because they now cannot afford the food required to sustain the animals. No economic stimulus for animals apparently. Humans incarcerate these poor creatures for their pleasure then slaughter and feed to themselves when the money is no longer coming in. How low can our species go?

The good sides are the health workers and the police who have awful jobs to do in stressful times and do it well.

Equally, if not more impressive, are the supermarket workers (no government resources to back them up and poorly paid) who turn up every day with no masks and do their job, sometimes sadly subjected to unfair abuse and having to umpire fights over goods. Special thanks to the manager of the Coles Tweed Heads store who several times when I was shopping came out to man the check outs, smiling, talking to shoppers, nodding to everyone and just being quite an old school Australian hero, along with his terrific staff.

Credit also to our NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian who has calmly managed the ups and downs of the crisis, sacked one of her own

ministers (who thought he was above the rules) and refused to be drawn into closing the NSW/Qld border or playing stupid tit for tat politics – which no one needs at this difficult time or any time.

Terry Sharples, Tweed Heads

We’re becoming control freaks

There’s a measure of control freakism emerging with the monastic demands made upon us to stay at home.

Last week in the Gold Coast Bulletin (17/4) headed ‘Defiant grocery outings’ there’s “startling new research” one in 10 people are “defying orders” and “shopping every single day”. The article states “millennials were the biggest offenders”.

One reason given: it was to the mixed messages according to Labor’s shadow health minister Chris Bowen. An epidemiologist at UNSW says we should limit weekly grocery shopping.

Whilst the reasons are clear in the current shutdown due to the COVID-19 virus, isn’t it true the recommended monasticism has become a control freakism with citizens being accosted for sitting on beaches and park benches and described as selfish for having a bush barbeque and ridiculously fined for breaching the rules?

The authorities must understand that since federation and before, we have had in Australia the cherished freedom of the right of transit, an established credo as a part of our national psyche. Dobbing on our neighbours is definitely not on.

It is under sufferance that we limit our excursions and gatherings and so far Australians have done very well with an apparent success. Control freaks need to butt out or learn a different approach.

Warren James, Tweed Heads West

The Way Ahead

By Yvonne Zumpe We sit inside our homes all day No friends to chat, no games to play We’re separated from the rest No north to south, no east to west Is death the only thing we fear?

To lose the ones that we hold dear?

The world has stopped, and that’s okay But what about the price we’ll pay?

Will food soon be in short supply?

How can we fix this, you and I? We’ve lost our voice, our right to choose Are we all just a tool they use?

To keep us locked up, for how long?

Will we show weakness, or be strong?

Someone must lead us through the dark It seems we’re back with Noah’s Ark

We must never forget

Nearly 2,500 years ago, an influential Greek called Perecles gave an oration in Athens, Greece.

He said: “Make up your minds that happiness depends on being free – and freedom depends on being courageous, for freedom is the sure possession of those alone who have the courage to defend it”.

One year after the commencement of WWI in 1919, Laurence Binyon wrote a poem ‘For the Fallen’.

From that poem came what we call ‘The Ode’ which honours the fallen.

In this era of social media some of the deeper qualities of our culture and lives are being eroded.

My poem challenges young people on Anzac Day to not only hear the Ode, not only speak the Ode, but to live the Ode – lest we forget.

Living the Ode

By Dennis Scanlon The Anzac legend lives and thrives As we stand here today – So many Anzacs gave their lives That we could live this way.

Our men and women heard the call; In battles near and far – So many of them gave their all To make us what we are.

Democracy and freedom thrive: Our daily rights – to share.

We keep that spirit strong – alive; Australia: proud and fair.

So as we stand to honour those Who gave with no regret: We will – in our lives – now propose To live: Lest we Forget.

Petition to Council calls for halt to 5G

The petition to councillors said members of the Tweed Shire “do not consent to being irradiated by the extremely high frequencies of 5G”.

“Abundant peer reviewed scientific evidence shows exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic radiation (RFEMR) from wireless telecommunications can cause serious harm to humans and the environment,” the petition reads.

“There are safer technology options for the community.”

It should be noted that the rollout of 5G has the support of the World Health Organisation and the Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Agency (ARPANSA), with much of the Australian and global scientific community refuting suggestions the technology could be harmful to our health.

Mayor Milne could not get the numbers on 5G moratorium

By Jo Kennett TWEED SHIRE Council Mayor Katie Milne has apologised that she and a fellow councillor, who tried to have a moratorium put on 5G in the shire, were unable to get the numbers.

Mayor Milne said she had been inundated with calls and emails from concerned residents but her hands were tied.

“I put a motion up at the last meeting (Thursday, April 16) to have a moratorium on 5G and it was voted down five votes to two,” Mayor Milne said.

“It was a Mayoral Minute but only Cr Chris Cherry and I voted for it.

“We have had a lot of letters about that and people are very upset.

“People need to take their concerns to the federal and state government because the majority of this Council has shown it supports 5G.” Mayor Milne said herself and Cr Cherry were being “begged to advocate” on the behalf of concerned community members “but we need the community to know we aren’t in a position to do that after the results of the meeting”.

“Byron Shire has put in a moratorium and they were told if you don’t want us to come here we won’t come here but we weren’t successful in establishing that as even a request,” she said.

“All of a sudden it was rolled out with no consultation.

“The tower in Murwillumbah is 5G enabled but they never told us; they said it has the capacity but not that it is going to be everywhere.

“It needs hundreds of little installations every couple of hundred metres so it will be everywhere in front of people’s houses.”

Mayor Milne said it was “one of the few things that there has been no consultation on”.

“It’s the Federal Government regulation that allows it,’ she said.

“It just happened. They have told us that we are one of the first in Australia to have it but new technology is always very concerning “We had no idea that it was being enabled.

“I’m really sorry we weren’t able to achieve the moratorium but people can still advocate to the other councillors who did support it or otherwise they need to go to their local state and federal representatives.”

Telstra currently has four 5G mobile sites in the Tweed Shire and the company spokesperson said plans to build the Murwillumbah mobile site were communicated with the Council in October 2019.

“Signage was placed on the site and advertising notices appeared in the local paper,” Telstra’s spokesperson told The Weekly.

“There are no further 5G sites planned for the area in the immediate future.”

Telstra also highlighted there are more than 50 years of scientific research into the possible health effects of the radio signals used for mobile phones, base stations and other wireless services, including the frequency bands now being redeployed for 5G. “We rely on the expert advice of Australian and international health authorities,” the spokesperson said.

By Jonathon Howard THE FIGHT against 5G is back on with a petition submitted to Tweed Shire Councillors on Thursday, April 16, calling for a halt to the rollout of the mobile technology across the Tweed.

The petition was signed by 663 signatories and called on councillors to halt the rollout of 5G until “safety and security can be guaranteed” after the mobile technology was switched on by Telstra in Murwillumbah, Bogangar and Hastings Point recently.

In a statement to The Weekly, a Telstra spokesperson said the company did not believe a moratorium on the 5G rollout is “appropriate or necessary”.

“However, we would like to extend an invitation to the Tweed Shire Council to discuss the matter further,” the Telstra spokesperson said.

THE LEGAL LIGHT! Rafferty’s Rules for Tweed River crabbers Business law changes over coronavirus

83982

With businesses large and small all over the country shutting their doors over the coronavirus crisis, it is important owners and managers know the changes to business laws the government has brought in to help ride out the economic storm.

Business lawyer Tony Mitchell of Stacks Law Firm says a string of changes has been enacted to provide temporary relief to companies from statutory demands and liability for insolvent trading during the pandemic.

The Coronavirus Economic Response Package Omnibus Act 2020 also contains temporary changes for individuals with bankruptcy notices.

In brief, the main changes: • increase the threshold for issuing a creditor’s statutory demand from $2,000 to $20,000 • increase the threshold for commencing bankruptcy proceedings from $5,000 to $20,000 • increase the period for responding to a creditor’s statutory demand or bankruptcy notice from 21 days to six months • extend from 21 days to six months the period within which unsecured creditors cannot take action to recover a debt against a debtor who declares an intention to present a debtor’s petition • remove directors from personal liability for trading while insolvent in relation to debts incurred in the ordinary course of business. The time to comply with statutory demands is extended from 21 days to six months.

“It’s vital that business owners and managers who have been hit by the economic downturn during the pandemic make sure they are fully aware of these temporary changes to insolvency and bankruptcy laws,” Mr Mitchell said.

“By increasing the minimum debt required and increasing the time a creditor has to comply with a statutory demand, the government is trying to provide breathing space for businesses to deal with their creditors during the coronavirus crisis.

“The crucial words in the Act are ‘in the ordinary course of business’. This is intended to apply to a debt incurred while continuing a business over the next six months, while everyone is effectively in lockdown and income is squeezed. It would include taking out a loan to continue paying employees, or shift operations online or to home delivery.

“But there are pitfalls. It does not protect a director from debts incurred before the Act came into force on March 25. It only applies to debts incurred during the next six months. Directors still need to act with care and diligence if going into debt, and to determine whether it is for a proper purpose.

“Directors would be wise to get legal advice before making a decision to go into debt and risk pressing on to trade out of difficulties. This crisis could last far longer than six months, and directors could face future litigation if they fall during the balancing act.”

Responsibility for comment is taken by Stacks Law Firm

By Jo Kennett RAIDING CRAB pots used to be a popular pastime among those too lazy and unscrupulous to catch their own, but these days it’s Rafferty’s Rules on the Tweed River, according to one angry fisherman.

Daniel Gray was born and bred in Murwillumbah and grew up fishing the river but says he won’t be going crabbing anymore after repeated raids and thefts of his crab pots.

“I was born on Tumbulgum Road on the river so I have been fishing pretty much since I can remember,” Mr Gray told The Weekly.

“My son Patrick and I went out the week before Easter hoping to get a feed for Good Friday but when we went to get them all four pots were gone. I was filthy.

“It takes so much effort to get the bait, set all the crab pots, get the boat ready and launch it, and then you go out and set them but if you don’t sit there and watch them you are guaranteed they will be raided.

“At times like these it’s nice to go out on the river and get a feed – it’s a great escape from lockdown – but honestly it makes you think it’s just not worth it.”

Mr Gray said the thefts occurred several times last year and this year with

the floats required by law serving as an advertisement for thieves.

“If you put them in and leave them overnight and come back the next day, if the pots haven’t been taken, they will have been raided,” he said.

“Most people don’t put floats on them for that reason.

“They will just sink them in the bottom of the river, mark the spot and then go back the next day and fish them out with a hook, but that’s illegal.

“Fisheries were going through with sonar, picking up the pots and taking them.”

Legally crab fishermen are required to have floats with names and phone numbers on them so Fisheries can check the pot and cross reference it to make sure the fishermen have a licence.

“You have to have your name on there or they will be taken by Fisheries,” Mr Gray said.

“Now it’s Rafferty’s Rules on the river; it’s no holds barred with anybody.

“I think there are a lot of people doing it now, probably because it happens to everyone.

“Some people go out there with the idea that it’s happened to me so I might as well do it myself.”

Daniel Gray on the Tweed River with son Patrick

Mr Gray said the problem has become much worse in recent times and something needed to be done about it.

“All it would take is for the authorities to put in bogus pots with tracking devices for a period of time and catch these people and the problem fixed.”

A spokesperson for the Department of Primary Industries (DPI) Fisheries said that theft of any property, including fishing gear, was a Police matter.

“However, if persons want to report illegal fishing activity we urge them to call the Fisherswatch phone line on 1800 043 536,” a DPI spokesperson said.

Local radio station to broadcast special Anzac Day service

By Jonathon Howard LOCAL RADIO broadcaster on Memphis Mayhem Radio 101.3FM has produced a Dawn Service program for listeners to tune in and follow on Saturday, April 25, from 5.45am.

Radio 101.3FM manager Stuart Phillis is a passionate community radio station operator and wanted to find a way to bring communities across the Tweed Shire together for Anzac Day. It will be the first time Anzac Day has been cancelled across the Tweed Shire, with historical records revealing Anzac Day parades went ahead in Murwillumbah despite the Spanish flu outbreak in 1918 and 1919.

Radio 101.3FM’s Dawn Service Program will last about 33 minutes, which will be broadcast from 5.45 am on Anzac Day. “Those of you who live outside the greater Murwillumbah metropolitan region, like me, might find FM reception a bit dubious, but the service

will also be available on internet radio, from 5.45am on Anzac Day, here: memphismayhemradio.com,” Mr Phillis said.

“In the meantime, if you or any veteran you know is doing it tough, please let us

know and we’ll see what can be done to help.”

Tweed Shire Council wishes to recognise the generations of the local Aboriginal people of the Bundjalung Nation who have lived in and derived their physical and spiritual needs from the forests, rivers, lakes and streams of this beautiful valley over many thousands of years as the traditional owners and custodians of these lands.

Last week we each used

COVID-19 planning changes The NSW State Government has announced new planning rules in response to the COVID-19 crisis.

Food trucks and ‘dark kitchens’ are now easier to set up and operate.

Dark kitchens are also known as virtual kitchens, cloud kitchens and ghost kitchens.

Construction sites can now operate on weekends and public holidays under new rules introduced recently by the NSW Government to support the industry during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Traffic delays on Kennedy Drive

Use cardboard and templates to recreate your favourite birds through the Tweed Regional Gallery’s ARTPLAY Online Activity – Explore the world of birds.

Explore the world of birds with ARTPLAY The Tweed Regional Gallery and Margaret Olley Art Centre is helping the community connect with art from home through a range of online programs and tours including the new ‘ARTPLAY Online Activity – Explore the world of birds’.

Taking inspiration from the exhibition Captive Companions by artists Anne Smerdon and Corinne Lewis, the activity uses cardboard and templates to recreate your favourite birds.

The activity is designed for all ages including adults. Younger children will need some assistance. View the artworks online by visiting artgallery.tweed.nsw.gov.au and download the activity sheets from the Public Programs page to get started.

Make sure you follow facebook.com/tweedregionalgallery to virtually connect with art, and enjoy everything the Gallery has to offer from the comfort of your home.

Traffic will be disrupted on Kennedy Drive, from Norman Street to Second Avenue, Tweed Heads, as Council contractors reline an old cast iron sewer main. The works start on Monday 27 April.

The old pipe used to be the main sewer trunk for the area and needs to be cleaned before the spiral PVC lining can be inserted.

The centre median traffic islands near Scales seafood shop will be removed to allow workers access to the sewer manholes within the road pavement. The sewer relining machinery will be working from a barge on Terranora Creek.

To keep two lanes of traffic flowing, both lanes of traffic will be squeezed onto the same side of the road during work hours from 7am to 6pm. The speed limit will be reduced to 40km/h.

Stop slow flagmen will be posted on Wharf Street at the Kennedy Drive offramp to assist pedestrians across to the northern side of Kennedy Drive, as the southern footpath will be closed to allow the barge machinery clear access to the sewer main.

The sewer relining is expected to take about two weeks, weather permitting. Council apologises for any inconvenience caused.

Don’t waste your time – avoid trips to the tip Council is asking all residents to avoid making trips to the tip at this time as visitors to the Stotts Creek Resource Recovery Centre (the tip) have increased by almost 200 per cent, compared to the same period last year.

On 30 March the Government announced that all residents must stay home unless they are attending work or education, shopping for food and essentials, exercising or receiving medical care.

Along with the health risks posed to the community and staff, Council doesn’t consider visiting the tip essential at this time.

Bin collection services are continuing to operate as normal during the coronavirus (COVID-19) emergency, however, collection truck drivers have been experiencing some difficulties accessing bins now

that many people are at home and there are more cars parked in the street.

Some easy tips to help things run smoothly and have your bin collected include: ensuring bins are clear of parked cars, trees or poles, avoiding parking in front of bins on collection days, keeping turningcircles free at the end of cul-de-sacs and placing bins on a straight section of road, where possible.

Vulnerable residents with special collection agreements will not have any changes. Council has temporarily closed the Tip Shop until further notice.

Council continues to deliver services Tweed Shire Council staff continue to deliver essential services during the coronavirus (COVID-19) crisis while taking every precaution to adhere to physical distancing and other COVID legislation.

Essential services undertaken by Council include maintaining and delivering safe drinking water to 90,000 residents; maintaining an efficient sewerage system with no sewage overflow into the environment or people’s homes; collecting and processing household and industrial waste; repairing roads and footpaths to ensure the safety of motorists and pedestrians; ensuring new buildings are constructed to be safe and comply with the relevant building code; and to ensure the safety of people moving around our parks and open spaces.

“Where we can deliver our services remotely without our people moving around the Tweed we are doing so. But, we cannot fix a broken sewer or flush discoloured water from a pipeline without going outside,” General Manager Troy Green said.

“To do our jobs and keep the Tweed community safe and supplied with the essential services they expect, sometimes we need to send two or more personnel to site to work together.

“While we are taking every precaution to allow two workers working together to maintain physical distancing – including ordering more fleet vehicles to provide physical separation when travelling to site – sometimes we just cannot separate people because to do so exposes them to higher risks. Examples of this are undertaking a two-person lift; placing pipework in a trench and patching potholes from the safety of a vehicle rather than while walking along a road.”

Workplace Health and Safety regulations require Council to ‘reduce risks as far as is reasonably practicable’. COVID-19 regulations require everyone to maintain physical distancing of 1.5 metres.

“The safety of Council’s workforce and the community is the organisation’s priority during this COVID-19 crisis. To that end, Council has closed its contact centres, art gallery and museum, aquatic centres and libraries and is doing all it can to continue to deliver these important services remotely or online,” he said.

Anyone who wishes to report concerns about physical distancing or other issues where people are not complying with a Public Health Order in the community should contact CrimeStoppers by visiting nsw.crimestoppers.com.au or calling 1800 333 000.

Grease trap waiver for Tweed businesses To help businesses closed down or not operating due to the COVID-19 crisis, Council is waiving their grease trap servicing requirements.

For those businesses still operating but at a reduced capacity, Council is offering to relax the frequency they need to have their grease traps serviced.

All businesses in the Tweed that discharge liquid trade waste to the sewer system must have a Liquid Trade Waste Agreement with Council. These businesses include food service businesses; commercial, manufacturing, trade and industrial premises; and commercial refrigeration, air conditioning and boiler operations.

Liquid Trade Wastes are liquid wastes that are discharged to the sewer that are not of a domestic nature. This can include liquid waste from commercial and industrial premises as well as from commercial activities carried out on residential premises. It also includes community and public premises (like education facilities, hospitals and clubs), trade activities (such as mobile cleaning services), saleyards,

racecourses, stables and kennels.

Liquid trade waste must be controlled to protect the public health, safety of Council employees, sewerage system and ultimately, our environment.

To apply for a waiver of servicing, businesses need to advise Council they have ceased or suspended operations and then contact their waste management company to suspend their grease trap servicing.

To stop a disused grease trap smelling, blocking or rusting, it should be pumped out and then partly filled with water.

To apply for a relaxation in servicing frequency, businesses need to write or email Council and provide evidence of their reduced trading capacity. Council may then check their water meter to confirm the claimed reduction.

Once businesses return to full capacity trading, the required frequency of servicing grease traps will be restored.

For more information on reducing the frequency of servicing a grease trap, contact Liquid Trade Waste Officers on (02) 6670 2640.

Council is offering to relax the frequency of grease trap servicing for businesses operating at reduced capacity.

Council services during COVID-19 Council's essential services continue as usual. Your rubbish will be collected as usual and our water supply and wastewater systems are being monitored and maintained.

Friends of the Pound has seen a reduction in the number of animals in their care.

Council face-to-face customer service counters at Murwillumbah and Tweed Heads are closed until further notice.

Who’s your best friend?

Friends of the Pound has seen a significant increase in the number of cats and dogs rehomed and sold during the COVID-19 shut down.

There has also been a decrease in the number of surrendered animals, down from five or six dogs a week to one or two a week.

Council – in partnership with Friends of the Pound – aims to rehome as many animals as possible.

Friends of the Pound President and Cat Coordinator Sonya Trichter said that the decrease was a result of people not having to move out of rental accommodation during the COVOD-19 pandemic, which is the number one reason dogs are surrendered.

Last week, Friends of the Pound supplied 10 cats to five south-east Queensland Pet Barn stores and all were sold within two days.

“As a small partner with Pet Barn, Friends of the Pound has, in the past, used funds from the sale of companion animals to finance a community program which offered cat de-sexing for the low price of $50,” Ms Trichter said.

“Six weeks ago we were caring for over 200 animals, this week we have only 93 animals left in our care,” she said.

If you are interested in purchasing a cat or a dog, visit Friends of the Pound at www.friendsofthepound.com or for more information on microchipping and registration of companion animals, visit Council’s at www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/MicrochippingRegistration Council Rangers would like to remind all dog owners to ensure their yards are secure to prevent dogs from escaping as well as ensuring their dog is adequately controlled by lead when in a public place.

Keeping animals is a big responsibility and roaming animals are at risk of being impounded, resulting in fines and holdings costs.

Tweed needs Virgin Airlines for tourism

COMMUNITY TRANSPORT IS STILL PROVIDING ACCESS TO VITAL MEDICAL APPOINTMENTS

83991

Looking after your regular health care needs is still important during the COVID-19 pandemic and Tweed Byron and Ballina Community Transport is here to help you get to your appointments.

We are taking extra precautions to keep you safe. All frequently touched areas are cleaned with antiseptic wipes between each passenger and each vehicle gets a thorough clean at the end of the day. There is no shared transport at the moment; all bookings are just for the driver and one client (though you may bring a carer). Passengers will sit in the back of the vehicle where possible and are asked not to travel if they feel unwell.

Trips to medical destinations in South East Queensland are still possible and we can even organise the cross border permit for you, by asking you a few questions over the phone.

Call 1300 875 895 between 8:30 and 4:30 Monday to Friday to make an inquiry or book your trip. If you are over 65 (over 50 if Aboriginal) and are not registered for community transport, call My Aged Care on 1800 200 422 and ask for a referral to community transport.

By Jonathon Howard FEDERAL MEMBER for Richmond Justine Elliot is calling on the Morrison government to protect local aviation jobs including Virgin Australia that supports the Tweed Shire’s tourism sector and local economy.

The Tweed Shire and Gold Coast could be among the biggest losers in Australia if Virgin Airlines were to fold with the tourism sector heavily reliant on both domestic and international visitors.

Mrs Elliot said she was joining a growing list of ministers across Australia calling on the Morrison Liberal-National government to guarantee that Australia’s two major airlines will survive.

“To protect local jobs, services and ongoing access to regular and affordable flights to other parts of the country,” she said.

Virgin Australia went into voluntary administration on Tuesday, April 21, threatening up to 15,000 jobs, after a board meeting of its international shareholders voted against providing more financial support.

However, the Morrison government was resisting pressure to invest in the airline and Finance Minister Mathias Cormann said the government wants to see two airlines remain in Australia.

H o w e v e r, M r C o r m a n n b e l i e v e s administration can find a sustainable privatesector solution to the company’s future.

Flights at Gold Coast Airport are currently operating three times per week on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays between the Gold Coast and Sydney.

Gold Coast Airport CEO Chris Mills said it was important to consider the future requirement of domestic travel once Australia emerges from the coronavirus pandemic.

“When we emerge from this crisis, Australia needs two strong domestic airline groups,” Mr Mills told The Weekly.

Powering On Through Tough Times

“The loss of a carrier would see fewer flights and less passengers, impacting visitation and tourism operators.”

Mrs Elliot echoed Mr Mills comments and said the local tourism industry had already suffered a series of blows, beginning with the bushfires late last year.

“We have also seen the coronavirus have an impact on our international visitors as far back as January this year,” she said.

“Then we had the added impact of travel restrictions affecting domestic tourism.

“Australia needs a two-airline system to ensure that access is given to regional areas like ours on the North Coast.”

Mrs Elliot said Labor had welcomed the government’s announcement that it will cover an initial eight weeks of flights on several critical metropolitan routes but regional routes, like to those to Ballina and Gold Coast, will still miss out.

“Our local economy has already suffered a series of blows as a result of coronavirus, and we cannot afford a further hit by losing Virgin Australia,” she said.

“It is so important for our local economy with so many local jobs at risk; local pilots, flight attendants, clerical staff and those who work in Ballina and Gold Coast Airport terminals.

“There are also thousands of jobs at risk in our local tourism sector who rely on Virgin and a robust two-airline system to service our communities.”

Stay isolated despite winning the COVID-19 war “The reality of COVID-19 closures and restrictions in supplies and travel have made all of us more aware of the value of buying local,” she said.

“This is not only in terms of local to Australia, for manufactured items, but also local to the region for fresh produce.

“The farmer’s markets have been thriving even in these times of restrictions because people are searching for the produce they cannot get in supermarkets, but also looking for food they trust to be clean and green.

“This has really highlighted the importance of our local agricultural sector and the need to ensure it can meet the demand of the people, here in our region, but also looking further afield when our economies open up again.”

Cr Cherry said Australia’s leading demographer, Bernard Salt, recently stated that the Northern Rivers is well positioned to meet these demands at the launch of the Northern Rivers Futures campaign.

“As a Council we need to do all we can to help our agricultural land holders and agribusinesses to be as productive as they can be,” she said.

By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE Council Deputy Mayor Chris Cherry says a precautionary approach is needed towards reopening of Council services and she’s encouraging residents to think and shop locally.

Cr Cherry said she understands that many people are facing hard times through loss of income.

“So, the best thing we can do is make sure we do not create a situation where we need to return to the lockdown or isolation,” she said.

“In order to do that, we need a staged approach such that children may come back to school, and the definition of essential travel may be relaxed, although still be limited.

“If we do it this way, we can test whether any impacts occur and make an informed decision about when we can lift restrictions completely.”

Cr Cherry said regarding Council services, such as libraries, galleries and front counter services, the councillors and staff will be guided by the State Government on lifting these restrictions.

In the meantime, Cr Cherry is urging residents to think and buy local.

A huge thank you!

Stunning mural brightens Hastings Point Winning the war

one test at a time

Amazing local artist Mealie Batchelor has created a stunning new mural

“I helped make the lighthouse on Aquaman as well and have been on movies for the last four years.”

For the last couple of years Mealie has been working on school murals.

“It’s all really positive messages to get kids feeling happy and good about themselves,” Mealie said.

“It’s all about spreading the love and so this is perfect.

“It puts a smile on people’s faces as they walk past.”

The owner said the reaction has been very positive.

“They say there should be more of it and you should talk your neighbours into getting it,’ she said.

“I think we should start a whole trend.

“Everybody says it’s beautiful, we love it, and they pick their favourite flower.

“We are getting beeps and cheers as people go past.

“It’s really nice and brightens things up.”

With so much disruption over the past month to our livelihoods it is easy to get caught up in a negative thinking pattern dealing with the isolation and change. We all have out own story of how this worldwide historical event has impacted on business, our income and home life. So how can we prevent ourselves from going down a negative pathway of thinking, which will impact our business furthermore?

Here are 10 tips to help you out: 1. Work with what you know.

Don’t spend time worrying about what you don’t know.

2. Write a list and remind yourself of all the good that your business offers to the community.

Mealie said she likes travelling and has done murals in several different towns.

“I did about ten in Killarney near Stanthorpe,” she said.

“I’ve done them all over the Gold Coast.

“I’ve painted my whole life pretty much and I worked in an engineering firm for a while as a graphic artist but my boss and mentor told me if I didn’t leave and pursue my art career he would fire me.

“The mural came at such a good time with all the work stopping and it has helped me so much to pay the bills.

“It’s much appreciated; I’m very grateful and what a beautiful environment to work in.”

The owner said she loved art and was really happy with the mural.

“If I had the money I’d get the whole house painted,” she said.

3. Make a plan of how you are going to recover, knowing this is not going to be forever.

4. Stay in touch with co workers, staff and clients.

Updating them with any positives for the week. They will appreciate your positive energy.

5. Innovate and pivot your business during this downtime. Can you go online?

Can you home deliver?

6. Gain a greater understanding of your financial situation to reduce stress.

7. Defer all unnecessary payments and subscriptions, unless it brings you joy. You still need to experience some joy during this disruption.

8. Give back to the community and give to others. Be willing

By Jonathon Howard ALTHOUGH NEW coronavirus cases remained at zero across the Tweed Shire this week, the Federal Government has opened the Murwillumbah General Practice Respiratory Clinic on King Street on Monday, April 20, in a bid to support the North Coast COVID-19 response.

We are winning the war against coronavirus but becoming complacent too early could spell disaster and result in a renewed spike of coronavirus cases.

The clinic is one of six respiratory clinics on the North Coast as part of a coordinated health system response to COVID-19.

Dr Doug Warne is the facilities’ lead doctor with a team of nurses and administrative staff ready to provide free assessment, testing and diagnosis for anyone with mild to moderate respiratory symptoms.

“Murwillumbah has the first clinic of its kind set up this week between the border and Port Macquarie,” he said.

“We’re here to help take the load off general practitioners.”

Dr Warne said the General Practice Respiratory Clinic will complement existing Local Health District COVID-19 Clinics, in partnership with general practice.

“The clinic is designed to reduce demand on local hospital’s emergency departments and free them up to support people with severe symptoms,” Dr Warne said.

“The clinic will also keep people with potential COVID-19 related symptoms separate from patients visiting general practice for non-respiratory issues.

“This will support practices to focus on chronic disease management and regular appointments.”

The clinic is also designed to optimise the use of available stocks of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) with staff changing their PPE every three hours.

Please note locals are encouraged to book a telehealth appointment with their regular GP in the first instance.

Where indicated, an appointment should then be made to attend the respiratory clinic. Referrals are not required. Bookings may be made online via HotDoc or by phoning: (02) 8188 3797.

The clinic is open from 9.15am to 4.30pm (Monday to Friday).

Anyone requiring assistance, including the clinic’s address, is advised to call ahead on the number above and remain in your vehicle at all times.

to give your time in a positive way and it will come back to you when you least expect it.

9. Value your health during this time so everyone benefits from your positive mindset.

If you are feeling overwhelm or experiencing too many bad days, please reach out to others and ask for some help.

10. The most important tip: Make time for you! What brings you joy? Don’t focus on what you are not permitted to do during this time, focus on what you can do.

By Jo Kennett A HASTINGS Point resident has brought a big splash of colour to the village by commissioning an eyecatching mural on her home and the artist responsible is getting plenty of positive feedback.

The owner of the home said she had always planned on doing a mural.

“I can’t stand plain houses, it drives me nuts and I love flowers,” she said.

“I wanted something that made me feel nice when I came home. It makes me feel happy.”

Murwillumbah artist Mealie Batchelor said the commission had come at a perfect time.

“I do a lot of murals at schools and basically that’s all dropped off since the schools and the borders closed so it was lovely to be asked to do this,” Mealie said.

“We’ve been on it for a couple of weeks but it’s quite high so it’s been a bit tricky with the scaffolding.

“A few days I couldn’t come because I was too sore.

“We have been working on the design, we are doing native flowers at the moment and bees, birds and butterflies.

“This side is more Australian natives and around the front they are brighter flowers like gerberas, sunflowers, daylilies, frangipanis and daisies.

“We’ve got the willy wagtail and he actually is a resident here and we are putting a magpie up.”

Mealie said she had been commissioned to do a mural in New Zealand but that had been on hold due to the coronavirus, as had the film sculpture work she does.

“I worked on Thor and helped make the whale bone at Hastings Point for Pirates of the Caribbean,” she said.

Modular homes could hold the answer to affordable homes of the future

Modular homes hold the key, says councillor “They are employed mainly in the hospitality and retail sectors and their jobs are captive to the ups and downs of tourism.

“The employees in these industries are often under rental stress as rents in the Tweed continue to rise.”

Cr Cooper said property investors have been opting to go into short-term holiday letting, developers are targeting the wealthier seachangers and retirees and these two groups are absorbing the Tweed’s housing stock.

“Affordable housing is rarely built because of the high cost of land,” Cr Cooper said.

“Another thing Council can do is direct more effort into attracting light industry to the Tweed.

“This can smooth out the waves of unreliable employment created by the ups-and-downs of tourism.

“The natural qualities of the Tweed will always attract tourists.”

Cr Cooper said it was in the Tweed’s interest and should provide industry with more stable employment.

“We are well positioned for light industry near a major airport and major connecting highways,” he said.

“We can move production in all directions by road and air and stable employment gives renters a fighting chance.

“Older residents on fixed incomes are also prone to rental stress and the Wardrop Community Village will be a safety net for them as well.”

Cr Cooper also pointed out that the Tweed has a disproportionate number of older residents.

“It will be a waste and a loss to our community if young people, are forced out of the Tweed,” he said.

“It will be much better for all of us if the younger generation developed their skills, creativity and productivity right here with us.”

In a workshop at the end of this month, councillors will discuss the concept plan for the Wardrop Community Village developed by a Brisbane architectural firm.

One new case of COVID-19 for Tweed

THERE HAVE been no new cases of COVID-19 across the Northern NSW Local Health District (NNSWLHD) since Friday, April 17, and one new case in the Tweed reported on Wednesday, April 15.

More than half of the 56 confirmed cases for the NNSWLHD have now recovered from the virus.

One patient remains in intensive care according to the NNSWLHD, and has been in ICU for several weeks.

There are a total of 15 reported cases of COVID-19 in the Tweed Shire, an increase of one since last week’s edition, with the new case residing in the 2486 postcode which includes Banora Point and Tweed Heads South.

The only reported case in the Tweed Valley (2484) was locally acquired with the contact still not yet identified.

The remaining 14 cases in the Tweed Shire were acquired overseas or interstate.

There has been a significant drop in the number of new cases throughout the nation.

At the time of print (Wednesday, April 22), there were 6,647 confirmed cases of COVID-19 in Australia and 22 new cases reported in the past 24 hours. A total of 4,291

cases have recovered, 74 have died and 440,000 tests have been conducted nationally.

According to data from NSW Health, a total of 999 COVID-19 tests have conducted throughout the Tweed Shire since January.

The majority of testing has occurred in the Tweed Heads area, followed by the Tweed Valley and the Tweed Coast.

There remains no confirmed cases on the Tweed Coast between Cabarita and Pottsville, with 101 tests conducted. See below for tests.

By Jonathon Howard THE CORONAVIRUS pandemic has brought the plight of Tweed Shire renters into sharp focus this month and according to Councillor Ron Cooper, the Tweed Shire Council will have a role to play in future employment downturns with the Wardrop Community Village project.

While still in its infancy, Cr Cooper’s vision is to develop a village of low rental modular homes to provide an affordable option for low income earners.

As rents continue to increase across the Tweed, a lack of affordable accommodation drives many more residents towards homelessness.

“Everyone has a basic right to a roof over their head,” Cr Cooper said.

“A l l l eve l s o f g ove r n m e n t h ave a responsibility to explore new and innovative affordable housing options.”

Cr Cooper said Council is rising to the challenge with the Wardrop Community Village project.

“It is well located in an attractive setting, and near a large and expanding industrial estate,” he said.

“The village will consist of studios, along with one, two and three-bedroom residences.

“The project will place great emphasis on encouraging a supportive village community.”

Cr Cooper said coronavirus is a catastrophic wake-up call for all of us. Even Airbnb and other short-term holiday agencies are feeling the pinch with some short-term accommodation now listed for long-term renters.

“Rental stress caused by unreliable casual and part-time employment will remain with us long after the current emergency is over,” he said.

“One of the key groups needing this accommodation are people on fixed incomes or have unreliable, part-time or casual employment.

The novel has been adapted three times for the screen, the first time in 1934 starring the great Greta Garbo with Herbert Marshall, the second time in 1957 under the title The Seventh Sin starring Eleanor Parker with Bill Travers, and the third time in 2006, starring Naomi Watts as Kitty and Edward Norton as Walter. The 2006 movie was filmed in Shanghai when I was living there, and I worked on that production, but never imagined that I would be watching the film again not so much because of its artistic merits – which are several, it is a very accomplished movie which has won many international awards – but because of a pandemic that is now occupying my thoughts most of the time..!

The tragedy and destruction that a disease brings to a community serves in the story as the background to the existential and romantic plight of a scientist with an unfaithful wife. Kitty is a pretty, uppermiddle class girl who accepts to marry doctor Walter Fane to get away from her family. When Walter is sent to Shanghai she follows him only to fall into the arms of another man there, a handsome British diplomat who abandons her once their affair is discovered.

Devastated, Kitty decides to follow her husband to work in the village beset with a cholera epidemic. There, the dynamics between the two, confronted with the human tragedy unfolding in front of their eyes, starts to change, and the prospect of a new beginning seems possible until fate catches up with them…

The story revolves around a British bacteriologist who in the 1920s is sent to a remote village in China to help in the fight against a cholera epidemic. Apparently the novel was influenced by Maugham’s study of science and work as a junior doctor – although he abandoned the medical career soon after starting to establish himself as a writer.

COURT HOUSE HORTAELNT TAKEAWAY RESTAU

“I am not a scientist (just a teacher) and there are remarkable resources that detail the ecological value of this gorgeous headland; “The fragile edge: a natural history of the Tweed Coast”

by Michael DeGood is the best.

“I believe it is time we start protecting Hastings headland for everyone’s sake, so who’s with me?”

Hastings Point resident Van Johnson definitely is and has been riding his bike to the headland every day since the closure.

“It’s not as busy and people can come up on their bikes and it’s just a better atmosphere,” he said.

“It’s less crowded and less dangerous and you get more of the experience.”

Hastings Point surfer Paul Young said a lot of people are talking about it.

“So many people have commented saying they want it kept closed,” Mr Young said.

“I’ve been talking to people in the surf, and all the local guys agree it’s much more peaceful and gives the headland a break.

Your thoughts: Do you think the top of the headland at Hastings Point should be permanently closed to vehicles? Send your thoughts to editor@theweekly.net.au

This week I have been thinking about movies that highlight the heroic efforts of doctors, nurses, scientists and all the others who are intimately involved in the fight against infectious diseases like the one we are facing now. One of the movies that came to my mind is The Painted Veil, based on the novel of the same name by W.Somerset Maugham.

$

“Hastings headland has been used and abused for far too long,” she said.

“This precious ecosystem is vulnerable yet the beauty and location of the headland makes it a must-see for touring people, weekend drivers and for a growing number of people living in their cars.

“The headland is a well-known viewing platform during the whale season and it has been years since local residents could find a park on the headland.”

Ms Monniot-Kerr, a teacher librarian and Green Team leader who organises environmental projects at Tweed River High School, said that before the outbreak, “the situation was at a tipping point”.

“People park there and stay all day, often overnight,” she said.

“Large numbers of people and no bins is not a good combination; I regularly pick cigarette butts and plastic rubbish left by drivers.”

Ms Monniot-Kerr said the solution was “staring us in the face and has been the elephant in the room for many years.”

“Let’s close the headland for good,’ she said.

“Parking should be restricted to the lower car park near the camping ground and everyone should walk up the headland to see the surf and whales.

By Jo Kennett THE CLOSURE of beach car parks to deter visitors from gathering at Tweed Coast beaches amid the coronavirus pandemic has led to a push for Hastings Point headland to be permanently closed to vehicles, and Mayor Katie Milne has put it on the Council’s agenda.

Mayor Katie Milne said Council is “very interested” in doing a master plan for Hastings Point.

“The rocky headland is really significant and the headland could definitely do with a review of the management of access et cetera up there,” she told The Weekly.

“It does need some serious attention.

“That would have to go out for some serious consultation as there would be a lot of stakeholders involved.

“It would involve state and Crown Lands and waterways.

“The rocky platform is Crown Land so we don’t have authority over that area.”

Mayor Milne said that as it involves both state and local government, it was “quite complicated”.

“I have put it on the agenda to discuss, along with Fingal Headland, at the next meeting of the Tweed Shire Council Tweed Coast and Waterways Advisory,” she said.

“I want to thank everyone for their interest and suggestions and a potentially positive benefit of the Covid-19 situation.”

The Weekly was recently approached by many Tweed Coast residents who were all in favour of making the change permanent.

Online comments have also backed the move.

Pottsville resident Lilas Monniot-Kerr contacted The Weekly to try to gather support for the move.

Anzac Day 2020

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

First Tweed Shire Anzac Day to be cancelled Burringbar reflects on

By Jonathon Howard THIS YEAR is the first time in the Tweed Shire’s history that public Anzac Day services have been cancelled on April 25, as historical reports reveal that while the movement of people was restricted during the 1918-19 Spanish flu outbreak, Anzac Day services and marches went ahead.

Several residents have phoned and emailed The Weekly this week to highlight that while several locations around Australia had cancelled or postponed Anzac Day parades and ceremonies, the Tweed Shire’s Anzac Day parades and events went ahead in both 1918 and 1919.

As Māris Bruzgulis pointed out, Anzac Day commemorations in 1919 were “very successful”.

“The Tweed Daily reported the following day that the sight of about 100 diggers in uniform marching through the streets of Murwillumbah was one of the most proud and thrilling this town has witnessed’,” he said.

“And where the day now elicits sombre reflection, in 1919 it called forth remembrance of the deeds of Australia’s soldiers at ‘Gallipoli, in Palestine, in Mesopotamia, in Belgium and in France’.

“And there was also ‘the spirit of rejoicing that should mark always the day’ because no longer would ‘mothers and fathers, wives, sisters and brothers set their teeth in determination to carry on the fight then in progress, not knowing

what cost might be exacted but ready to pay even the very highest whenever it was demanded’.”

In addition to commemoration, the program included seventeen or eighteen sports events including “a bomb throwing-competition”, trophies for “the best military or naval turnout, and the best collection of war trophies and curios”, with a prize list of £60 “to attract a good number of competitors”.

“In Sydney, the parade was postponed, not cancelled,” Mr Bruzgulis said.

“Anzac Day itself was still observed at numerous church services, including one in the Domain, where masks were worn by the great majority of the gathering in compliance with prevailing regulations.

“The postponed parade was held on May 22, 1919.

“One reason for these vagaries was that the New South Wales regulations to prevent the spread of pneumonic influenza were imposed piecemeal.

“They only came into force in the Tweed Shire on May 21, 1919, to be cancelled on August 27, 1919.”

Reports from the Tweed Daily News on September 21, 1918, titled “Influenza Epidemic” outlined some of the concerns during the outbreak.

“The influenza epidemic, which is sweeping over Sydney just now, and is also making its presence felt in the Tweed district, appears to be part, of a worldwide invasion,” the Tweed Daily News reported.

“Though generally in a mild form, the number of victims of the disease was

extraordinarily large, and the result was a serious interference with industrial and local life.

“The German army was reported to be suffering severely from influenza, and even royalty did not escape.

“But news to hand by the last English mail shows that the outbreak was much more serious than the cables indicated.

“Spanish flu has eclipsed everything.

“It was no respecter of persons.

“It is recorded that in some cases entire households were struck down.

“Influenza mixtures were sold in quart bottles in London and there was a rush for quinine and oil of cinnamon, which Dr Reginald Jewesbury stated at an inquest is one of the best-known preventatives.

“Queues formed outside chemists’ shops, while patients waited to be served in turn, and doctors’ consulting rooms were besieged by hundreds who, in many cases, were compelled to wait in queues for admission as room became available.”

The Spanish flu outbreak continued to plague the Tweed Shire in 1919 with a report in Tweed Daily News titled “Influenza Decreasing at Lismore” on Wednesday, May 21, 1919.

“Only one patient suffering from influenza was admitted to the Lismore District Hospital on Monday night, and three were discharged during the day,” the report read.

“Sixty-three patients then remained in hospital.”

Anzac Day cancellation BURRINGBAR RSL Sub-Branch, which proudly celebrated its Centenary in December 2019, has issued a statement that it “deeply regrets having to cancel their Anzac Day Service this year due to COVID-19 restrictions”.

Burringbar RSL Sub-Branch President Phil Connor said this is probably the first cancellation in a hundred years.

“During these difficult times we need to pause, reflect and remember our service personnel past and present,” he said.

Mr Connor provided the following from an Australian Army Anzac Day speech: “We need to think of those who served.

Those who joined together to make the formidable fighting forces that Australia was and still is proud of.

“We salute their fellowship and courage. We think of the families, those who stayed behind. They battled their own problems in tough wartimes and supported those who fought.

We salute their endurance and strength. We think of the prisoners and wounded - those who still suffer today.

“Above all, on Anzac Day, we honour those who died for us, for our nation Australia and for peace.

“It is a day of reflection and honouring our forebears. Anzac Day is a great Australian & New Zealand tradition. It is celebrated all over the two nations and wherever Australians are overseas.

“It is our day; a day to remember with affection the courage of people and the value of mateship; to honour the dead and to acknowledge those who suffer still from the effects of war.

“We do not celebrate victory or glorify war – we celebrate the human spirit – the spirit of Anzac.”

Lest we forget.

Cricks Tweed is open for business with great deals available

By Jonathon Howard CAR DEALERSHIPS across the Tweed Shire are adjusting their business models to allow for contactless car purchasing and servicing including Cricks Tweed, which has pulled the end of financial year sales ahead to offer some great local deals.

Cricks Tweed is locally owned, with Dealer Principal Ryan Harding a part-owner and responsible for the day-to-day operations.

Mr Harding said the closure of the Queensland border has locked out at least 40 per cent of customers and has put staff jobs and livelihoods in danger.

“However, we have not made a single redundancy or let go of any staff and we are choosing to keep everyone attached to the business whilst working to manage our way through the pandemic,” he said.

“Like many businesses we have reduced our hours and staff roster and made adjustments to our 18 vehicle technicians and service staff, nine sales staff and 13 admin/ management staff.”

Mr Harding said car dealerships have been classified as an essential service to ensure all Australians can complete their essential transport needs safely and reliably.

“Cricks Tweed has pivoted like many businesses and is now

The team at Cricks Tweed are here to help with a great range of new and used cars available at end of financial year prices

offering Contactless Car Buying and Servicing,” he said.

Mr Harding said Cricks Tweed was seeing an increase in vehicle maintenance, servicing and warranty repairs as customers take advantage of the spare time.

While sales of new and used cars have plummeted, Mr Harding said there are now some great deals on offer as the dealership clears stock.

“Customers could expect a great deal with end of financial year specials being pulled ahead, and a simpler and quicker transaction

process, either in person or over the phone,” he said.

“Cricks Tweed has implemented various contactless processes to ensure customers can get what they need done, without breaching any rules or endangering their health.”

Mr Harding said his team felt fortunate to represent two extremely strong brands such as Subaru and Mitsubishi.

“Both have been very supportive through the challenges created by the border closure and pandemic,” he said.

“Recent new model introductions include the Subaru Forester Hybrid, Subaru XV Hybrid, the all new Mitsubishi ASX, the all new Mitsubishi Pajero Sport, and a range of new special edition Mitsubishi Triton utes.”

Mr Harding said you can now buy your next car in the comfort of your own home.

“Speak to our team via phone, email or online,” he said.

“We will help you pick the perfect car. With contactless test drives, we

can bring the car to you or pop in if you prefer.

“These measures have been adopted to keep our business running, while ensuring the safety of our staff and customers in these challenging times.”

Cricks Tweed’s Service and Sales departments are open Monday to Saturday, or by appointment.

Your Local What’s new at the markets?

This week Spice Palace is introducing a delicious new product – their Tumeric & Nut Fermented Pate. I was very fortunate to be given some to taste test over the weekend and I can tell you – it is so delicious I am adding it to my weekly market shopping list.

Made with activated insecticidefree almonds and local macadamia nuts and macadamia oil plus Duska and Rob’s home grown organic turmeric – no wonder it is delicious. Add in the other ingredients – lemon juice, nutritional yeast, onion powder and starter culture and it is a simply superb. And like all Spice Palace products, it is made with lots of love.

It is so delicious on rice crackers that I haven’t ventured yet into trying it in other ways but I know it would be a tasty addition to a salad. The reality is I could just eat it straight from the jar.

While you are at Spice Palace pick up some Grumpy Grandma’s olives. They are divine and perfect for a platter, salad and in pizzas.

Fuertes avocados are in full season now and very popular as always. Costanzo Apples’ new season pears have arrived and Tweed River Pecans harvest will be at the market from next Wednesday.

As we move into May leafy greens of all kinds become more abundant and extra delicious as well as the early brassicas such as cabbages. Summit Organics for example has been planting about 6,000 seedlings per week to keep us well supplied and Jumping Red Ant has just planted thousands of lettuce on their sunny slopes while still undertaking the constant planting of all their other vegies.

New season juicy fresh ginger is coming in now and root vegetables of all kinds and colours begin to appear. Likewise all our market farmers are planting and have been planting extensively. It takes excellent planning from early in the year to sow the seeds, grow the seedlings and plant these out is such huge numbers.

Here in the Tweed Valley this is our most abundant time of the year. Watch out for lots of citrus coming in over the next two months as well.

Stay safe everyone

Change is a constant in our lives right now so enjoy lots of new season, super fresh produce.

Our bodies need this to keep us healthy. It really is a time to adapt and thrive to the best of our ability. Sing to lift your spirits and look out for the welfare and safety of others. Please take care.

Thank you for supporting our farming families and local producers at our market every Wednesday.

our wonderful community of producers and consumers together supporting one another we simply would not have been able to expand and develop. So a big thank you. The social connections that take place at the market have been a highlight and we hope that these will again be a highlight in the future when this crazy virus settles and its restrictions fade into the distant past.

We would like to take a moment to thank all our customers who have embraced the new restrictions – or even reluctantly complied with them. Compliance is essential so that we can continue to offer delicious fresh locally grown produce every Wednesday.

We ask that you continue with 100% compliance: social distancing of 1.5m, no group gatherings – one person per family to shop, if you touch it you buy it, we respectfully ask that you shop and go and takeaway food must be consumed off the premises – so please grab and go.

We usually encourage you to linger and enjoy our music, the beautiful market ambience and delicious food but for the moment we are all adopting these new rules to keep you and the market safe.

APRIL IS the month when we celebrate our ninth birthday.

I can barely believe that it was nine years ago in April 2011 that we first opened the market to the public. This followed more than two years of planning, submissions and lots of work by a very dedicated team to bring the market to fruition.

Our celebration this year will not take place at the market in our regular style ending with cake for all. This year it will be a virtual celebration so make a cake and a cuppa or pour a glass of bubbly and raise a cheer for all our farmers and producers. Without

Explosion of moths follow butterflies

By Jo Kennett FIRST THERE were clouds of Lemon Migrant and Blue Tiger butterflies and now thousands of moths have appeared across the Tweed Shire and some local gardeners are not happy.

However, according to one of the country’s leading entomologists, they have their role to play in keeping the ecosystem in balance so we shouldn’t rush out to poison them.

CSIRO entomologist Dr Ted Edwards said the population of sod webworm moths had ballooned, as had butterflies, because the long dry period followed by good rain provided the perfect breeding conditions.

“There have been a lot of outbreaks of moths in NSW and everything has burst out of the bounds of the parasites that feed on them like wasps,” Dr Edwards told The Weekly.

“The parasites will catch up with them in a generation or two, which is only a couple of months, so it’s best to leave them be.

“They don’t have a purpose or use as far as humans are concerned, they are just a part of the biological systems and it’s all about keeping a balance.”

“All these moths have a role to play in keeping plants under control so you should just let nature take its course.”

Queensland Museum Entomologist Dr Chris Burwell said the sod webworm is native to Australia and occurs at the top of the Northern Territory and from Cape York to Central NSW, including Sydney.

“They feed on a variety of grasses as caterpillars and that’s where the sod comes from, as in sod busting,” Dr Burwell said.

There has been an explosion of moths across the Tweed this month. Photo: CSIRO

“When they are fully grown the caterpillars are about 2cm long, but you don’t see them because they are on the soil surface in a silken tube.

“They mostly feed at night, so you don’t see them until they are adults.”

Dr Burwell said they can be a pest of pastures and lawns, much like army worms.

“They come into conflict with humans when we want nice lawns and they seem to be most pestiferous to lawns and grass in late summer through to autumn,” he said.

“Moths and butterflies are from the same order, lepidoptera, which means scaled wing and is one of the characteristics of moths and butterflies.

“The wings are covered with hundreds of overlapping scales like roof tiles.”

Kingscliff’s Kate Heffernan, one of Australia’s most renowned experts on Australian native plants and sustainable gardens, said human-

induced climate change had made the rains erratic leading to the outbreak but “everything is food for something”.

“Parasitic wasps are the natural control for many of them and they were hammered in the drought,” she said.

“In the garden it’s best to check a couple of times a day and pick the larval caterpillar stage off garden plants if possible, or use an organic product like spinosad or spinetoram – both are active ingredients in garden pesticides based on a soil bacteria.

“Commercially named products can be found in most general hardware stores and large garden centres.

“Birds are the best control but that needs a holistic approach with plant selection based on habitat.”

The Queensland Museum website runs Dr Burwell’s bug blog and has all sorts of fun facts about insects: http:// athome.qld.gov.au/

School works to start soon

THE TWEED Shire is another step closer to commencing major upgrades at four schools, with Evolve Constructions awarded the early works contract.

Member for Tweed Geoff Provest has welcomed the progress on the projects at Tweed Heads South Public School, Tweed River High School, Kingscliff Public School and Kingscliff High School.

“I’m excited that these projects can now get started and I look forward to watching the fantastic new facilities take shape,” Mr Provest said.

“The contract for the early works signifies the next milestone in the $120 million upgrades which will deliver permanent new classrooms and refurbished facilities to each of the four schools.

“Tweed Heads and Kingscliff are important, growing regional centres, so I’m very pleased the NSW Government is prioritising the educational needs of our young people.

“These upgrades provide our local business community with the opportunity to provide skills and services that further build the capability and strength of our communities, while improving economic growth for the region.”

The upgrades, which are due to be complete by the end of 2021, include the following new facilities: • The upgrade at Kingscliff Public School will provide 32 new permanent classrooms, a new library, play spaces and outdoor amphitheatre, and new school entry and teacher facilities.

• At Kingscliff High School, students will benefit from refurbished learning spaces and library, a new visual and performing arts building, new senior learning environment and the refurbishment of hospitality teaching facilities.

• The upgrade at Tweed Heads South Public School will deliver 11 new permanent classrooms, a new library, new out of school hours care facilities and a new school entrance and improved playground space.

• At Tweed River High School, the school community will benefit from a new library, new senior learning environment, three new science labs and two new classrooms, extension of the technology and applied studies building and refurbishment of the hospitality teaching area.

The early works, which are due to be completed by the end of June, will deliver a new canteen and extension of the hall at Kingscliff Public School; a new purpose-built sports pavilion at Kingscliff High School; a new canteen and school entrance at Tweed Heads South Public School; and an upgrade to the canteen and landscaping at Tweed River High School.

I know and understand that everyday life is very hectic and for a lot of people to keep their house clean and organised is an extra burden on their life, which can put a lot of unnecessary strain on the whole family. So I have been offering a range of household duties, such as cleaning kitchens, cleaning bathrooms, vacuuming and mopping of floors, dusting, making beds, cleaning fridges, cleaning ovens, washing of clothes, organising cupboards or even the whole house.

Has Your Hot Water System Been Checked Lately?

Ever Heard of a Sacrificial Anode?

NSW Lic: 213024C

QLD Lic: 724433

Manufacturers recommend that you maintain the anode in your system in order to prevent damage from rust + corrosion.

THE ANODE IN YOUR SYSTEM SHOULD NEVER BE ALLOWED TO CORRODE AWAY, WHATEVER TYPE OR BRAND OF SYSTEM YOU HAVE SOLAR, ELECTRIC, GAS OR HEAT PUMPS Cutaway section of a typical electric hot water heater

FOR A LIMITED TIME we will check your anode in the Tweed & Gold Coast area FREE OF CHARGE.

“REMEMBER YOU CAN’T LOSE, NO ANODE REPLACEMENT NO CHARGE” Comes with a 5 year warranty ~ Make your Hot Water System last for 30 years!

MICHAELA FLOOD As the Regent Cinema is currently closed tickets are redeemable when the Regent Cinema reopens.

Please look out for precious wildlife JobKeeper deadline looms

By Rachael Lebeter ALTHOUGH THERE’S currently less traffic on Tweed Shire roads, cars still pose a threat to our native wildlife.

Sadly, the total Australian roadkill annually is four million, producing an estimated half a million marsupial orphans each year.

Babies can survive horrific accidents and often live for a day or more inside their deceased mother’s pouch.

In the Tweed Shire, car strike is our largest reason for wildlife coming into care.

We have around 500 every year and Murwillumbah’s our worst area for car strikes with 50 car strikes a year.

Residents are asked to drive carefully, watch out for wildlife and to stop for animals that have been struck by a car.

If you cannot stop safely, call TVWC’s hotline on (02) 6672 4789 with the location of the injured animal, and one of our volunteers will check it out.

If you do stop, carefully remove the animal from the road if you can do it without endangering yourself.

If the animal is female, you can check for a pouch on the lower abdomen if the babies are large, it will be easy to see them moving in the pouch.

The easiest way to transport the babies is to wrap up the mother and take her to the nearest carer.

It is important not to remove babies from the teat as this can permanently damage their mouth.

Marsupials carry their young on their backs once they have grown too big to fit in the pouch.

A possum and a bandicoot lost their mothers due to car strike

Back-riding young will be thrown off during a car strike and sometimes babies are even forced out of the pouch.

It is important to look around the edges of the road as even the smallest babies can crawl away, trying to find safety.

Different animals have different numbers of babies. For our local short-eared possums look for one baby, for common possums sometimes two, ringtails three or four while bandicoots can have four or more.

Echidnas can carry a baby, called a puggle, in a tiny skin fold on their abdomen until it starts to develop spines. Look for a little black baby shaped like a jellybean.

If you find any babies that are not in the pouch, it is important that they do not get too cold. Please wrap them in something like a sock and keep them close to your body to warm them up.

It is important not to warm them up too quickly. Again, they need to get to an experienced carer as soon as they can.

There are many wonderful locals that stop to check any marsupials that they see on the road.

These good Samaritans are essential for our native wildlife.

They ensure injured animals are not suffering and they rescue dozens of baby animals each year.

Currently, Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers is raising a bandicoot, several possums and a wallaby joey.

All of these babies survived a car strike that killed their mothers.

Star is a baby bandicoot who came into care after his mother was hit by a car.

Like many marsupials, bandicoots have an extraordinary ability to heal.

Star had one eye closed and was fitting when he first came into care.

But with appropriate veterinary treatment and lots of nurturing from his carers, Star is nearly ready for release.

Another orphan who came into care as a result of a car strike is Stan.

Stan is a short-eared possum who was found in Burringbar.

She has also recovered from the accident that killed her mother and is doing well in care.

Because we live in such a beautiful, biodiverse area, there are many native animals throughout the Tweed.

This includes in built up areas where you might not expect to see an animal. For example, Star came from Cabarita Beach.

Therefore, drivers need to be on the lookout for wildlife even in urban areas.

In the worst black spots for wildlife on our roads, you will see signs with the Tweed Valley Wildlife Carer’s phone number.

Please call us for any wildlife on our roads. Our hotline operates 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Call (02) 6672 4789.

BUSINESS OWNERS impacted by the coronavirus pandemic are being encouraged to get their JobKeeper applications lodged ASAP and prior to Sunday, April 26, deadline if they want to be eligible for the first two fortnights of JobKeeper payments.

Anyone needing extra help or wants to check their eligibility for the JobKeeper payment scheme is encouraging to contact their local tax agent or Grant & Brady Accountants who are ready to help lodge your application on your behalf.

Grant & Brady Principal Stuart Brady said eligible businesses that have experienced or have forecast a fall of at least 30 per cent or more in revenue and meet other criteria, are eligible to register and lodge an application.

“The important steps businesses need to take is to register their interest for the JobKeeper payment scheme, ensure they meet the eligibility requirements, obtain completed and signed JobKeeper Employee Nomination Notices for all their eligible employees (if they have employees) and enrol in the JobKeeper Scheme through their Business Portal or through us or a registered tax agent. Sole traders can also register through their MyGov account,” Mr Brady said.

Mr Brady said the forms are reasonably straight-forward and easy to complete.

“There are three guides available, depending on your situation including sole traders, employers reporting through Single Touch Payroll (STP) and employers not reporting through STP,” he said.

“If you do not want to set up your business on the Business Portal, or you’d prefer for us to lodge the application on your behalf, you need to act quickly”.

Mr Brady said it was important business owners have access to the relevant documents, but help is available.

Mr Brady said he also wanted to make people aware that they can now access $10,000 from their super accounts and anyone wanting to undertake should speak to their financial adviser and contact their superannuation fund.

“You can also apply yourself through the ATO online services via MyGov,” Mr Brady said.

Eligible Australian citizens and permanent residents are able to apply to access up to $10,000 of their super until June 30, 2020, a further $10,000 from July 1, 2020, until September 24, 2020.

“To apply for early release, you must satisfy one or more of the following requirements including you are unemployed, you are eligible to receive Centrelink payments (conditions apply) or on or after January 1, 2020, either you were made redundant, your working hours were reduced by 20 per cent or more and if you were a sole trader, your business was suspended or there was a reduction in your turnover of 20 per cent or more.”

There are some important links provided below for JobKeeper: www.ato.gov.au/General/JobKeeper-Payment/In-detail/JobKeeper-guide--employers-reporting-through-STP/ If you do not currently use single touch payroll below is the ATO’s JobKeeper process that you should follow: www.ato.gov.au/General/JobKeeper-Payment/ In-detail/JobKeeper-guide---employers-not-reporting-through-STP/ Please note the above information is general advice only and for more information please contact your accountant.

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

Holding Shot with Judy Tuckey WITH ACTIVITIES on the greens currently non-existent, courtesy of COVID 19, an opportunity has presented itself wherein some of our local bowlers, as well as activities of yesteryear, can be given the exposure so well deserved.

One such bowler who comes to mind is Kingscliff member, Gil Steinhardt, who has certainly left his mark in the record books.

Gil began his bowling career up in Queensland at Oxley Bowls Club in 1972, when a relatively young man, before moving to the Gold Coast in 1985. He also spent some time at Cabarita Beach as Coach and Bowls Co-ordinator before moving on to

Merrylands Bowls Club in 1995.

Seventeen years later Gil returned north and joined Kingscliff club.

Gil misses the days that he describes as “when bowls were bowls, with 16 players to a pennant side, and 25 ends were played”.

In those days Gil, together with Ian Schuback, Rob Parrella and Kelvin Kerkow skipped the four pennant teams (Gold Coast) respectively and succeeded in winning District Pennants and Championships many, many times over. Within 12 months of moving to Sydney, Gil went on to become a dual State Skip such was his prowess on the greens. He also enjoyed success skipping in Premier League as well as Zone 10 comps.

Added to the countless Club titles he has won during his stellar career, Gil also has bragging rights to multiple Invitational Singles event wins; was crowned Gold Coast Player of the Year three years in a row; won Queensland State Singles and Gold Coast Winter Carnival Singles 1991 and skipped the Queensland State 4’s winners in 1994.

2020 and Gil is still enjoying the game and friendship his fellow members offer him as well as playing club championships and pennant at Kingscliff. His advice for the learner bowler – learn and understand the basics of the game and enjoy the rewards it may bring you. Many thanks, Gil, for sharing your experiences with us. Best wishes for good health, much happiness and many more enjoyable years on the greens.

Take care everyone and stay healthy.

Matthew Dunn Racing bags first Sydney race win with Snitz MURWILLUMBAH STAR trainer Matthew Dunn has had his first Sydney win against his metropolitan rivals with Snitz winning the Catanach’s Sprint (1200m) on Saturday, April 18.

Jockey Nash Rawiller rode Snitz ($12) to victory by 1-3/4 lengths over Jen Rules ($12) with Outrageous ($9.50) taking third place.

Dunn’s wife and stable representative Kiera told AAP that Snitz’s win was a

milestone, giving them their first Sydney victory outside Highway Handicap class.

“It’s obviously our first winner down here against city trainers and it’s definitely a thrill,” Kiera told AAP following the race.

The Dunn Stables were confident Snitz could run a solid race after Rawiller rode the horse in a barrier trial and followed up with the race ride.

“Once we knew he was chasing the ride we were pretty confident with how he was going,” Matthew told AAP. Rawiller told AAP that he was able to get Snitz into a good rhythm and knew he had the race in the bag at the top of the straight.

“He did give me a great feel in the trial and still had a fair bit up his sleeve, but the team has done a great job with him,” Rawiller told AAP.

Tapped in to the waves With Terry Tappa’ Teece

Hurworth shapes his future on the Tweed MATT HURWORTH is a local surfer shaper, here on the Tweed Coast.

An always friendly smiling guy, he is a big part of the local area here on the Tweed, and his boards, Matt Hurworth Surfboards (MH), are being ridden by many a local Tweed Coast surfer.

I met Matt about 20 years ago and it is always a pleasure catching up. We don’t play up as much these days!

I asked a few questions of Matt for this week’s Tapped in to the waves.

Matt moved to Cabarita around 20 years ago from Cronulla.

“There were a lot of people from the shire already here like Ross Marshall, and the Wilsons.” said Hurworth looking back.

“I was getting into the surfboard industry and would work at a factory in Byron a couple of days then another factory on the Gold Coast a couple of days. The Tweed Coast was located in the middle and is mellow with that country

vibe, it has great people, and back then had uncrowded waves which was perfect to test boards.”

Things are not all bad, but COVID-19 really messing with his overseas market.

“Its a weird world at the moment, some businesses are really hurting.

Our board label in Bali is on hold as I’m supposed to be there at the moment.

“I was booked for Japan in May, then the United States later in the year, but all travel has been put on hold.”

Hurworth is very thankful for his local customers.

“We are fortunate we have loyal customers here in Oz and we own our factory in Tweed Heads which creates lower overheads,” he said.

“Our market in Australia is 90 per cent custom based and we find people are still ordering custom surfboards. Sure business is a little slower but this gives me the opportunity to design and test new models and shapes plus spend

time with my family who all surf on a daily basis.”

Matt Hurworth believes getting a custom board from a local shaper is a big advantage.

“Getting to know your shaper is a great advantage,” he said.

“We focus on customer service and quality rather than mass producing for shops. We speak direct with our customers and ask questions like; how often they surf? Where they mainly surf?

What level are they are? Also their weight, size etc.”

Hurworth also believes on an ongoing relationship with his customers.

“All our custom designs are kept on file, with all boards shaped by myself personally,” he said.

“Communicating with your shaper is a great advantage for people getting what they want as everybody surfs different.”

A longtime member of Cabarita Boardriders, Matt has a lot of time for the club,

“Cabarita Boardriders is a family based club where everyone watches out for each other,” he said.

“We are based on having fun, not taking things too seriously and always backing each other.

This is why we have had some great results over the years and are still getting stronger.

“Chicka our president is a born and bred local, my partner is secretary (taking over from Donna Wilson after 20 years) and everyone chips in and helps out.”

Matt says there is plenty of talent in the local area as well.

“Chippa Wilson, Brent Savage are better known, but there is so much underground talent too,” he said.

“Sixteen-year-old Zahli Kelly for example missed out by one spot to qualify for this year’s WCT Tour. Others to keep an eye on are Se Bungate, Blake Neka, young Kyan Falvey and a bunch of frothing groms.”

Matt Hurworth loves the Tweed Coast.

“The best part about living on the Tweed Coast is its mellow vibe, good climate, good waves and friendly people who all watch out for each other,” he said.

Grommets just ride and cruise around with their parents knowing they are safe. I couldn’t think of a better place for Jonelle and I to raise our three boys.”

Matt is a great bloke and a local lad doing well, even in these times.

Smile and say gday when you see him around, you’re guaranteed a smile back.
