Meanwhile, several residents had contacted The Weekly in late 2017 to raise their concerns with potholes and corrugation on Round Mountain Road, which one resident said had become “increasingly dangerous” and needed to be sealed.

Council had sent a backhoe crew to Round Mountain Road in mid December to complete temporary maintenance works to the unsealed section of the road.

“This includes some removal of corrugations on the road and cleaning table drains/culverts where necessary,” a Council spokesperson told The Weekly.

“This is only a temporary measure until the maintenance grading crew can get there which at this stage is February or March 2018.

“If need be, we’ll send the backhoe crew back there if there’s a lot of bad weather between that time.”

In response to calls to seal Round Mountain Road, the Council

spokesperson said no future funding is allocated to upgrade unsealed roads unless there are grants available, such as the $750,000 of federal funding provided to upgrade Bartletts Road at Eviron,.

The Tweed’s road repair bill now stands at about $16 million, with floodaffected roads comprising the majority of the bill and repairs expected to take many months to complete once contracts have been awarded.

“Council now estimates the March flood caused approximately $28.9 million of damage to roads and bridges,” Council said in a media statement.

“To date, more than 1000 minor road and bridge damage items have been repaired at a cost of $5.5 million.

“Under current estimates, Council expects to recover $20.3 million of its roads bill through Natural Disaster Relief and Recovery Assistance (NDRRA) and grant funding, leaving a possible shortfall of $8.6 million to be funded from Council’s future operating and capital budgets.

“These figures continue to change as we firm up damage estimates, work to maximise funding opportunities and complete NDRRA assessments.”

Council said the NDRRA has strict funding rules, including that costs are recoverable only where Council uses contractor resources.

“That is, Council cannot use its own workforce to repair flood damage,” a spokesperson for Council said.

THE CONDITION of many Tweed Shire roads is back on the agenda in 2018, as several residents are calling for desperate road maintenance as Tweed Shire Council continues to grapple with a long list of repairs following the historic 2017 Tweed flood.

Council announced in late 2017 a third $1.35 million package of 80 minor to medium-sized flood remediation works under contractor Hazell Bros, with a fourth and final package expected to be announced soon.

Council said there were about 50 larger jobs currently in various stages of investigation and design and it was expected that most of these will be awarded by April 2018.

Work has also started on the first of the major road repairs on Tweed Valley Way, South Murwillumbah, at Blacks Drain, with a new bypass road in place to divert traffic.

This third package comprises repairs on 29 roads in Bilambil, Carool, Clothiers Creek, Cobaki, Condong, Duranbah, Duroby, Hopkins Creek,

Possible new hospital site raises concerns

In recent months, we have learned that the NSW State Government has allocated over $500 million for the construction of a new hospital somewhere between Tweed Heads and Murwillumbah. What a wonderful Christmas present.

With the knowledge of flooding that the Tweed Shire Council has amassed over many years following the 1954 and 1956 floods, logically this new hospital must be built on a site that is above the maximum probable flood.

With the benefit of hindsight, it is now obvious that the site chosen for the Tweed Heads hospital was far too small and did not allow for the explosion of population that has occurred since it was opened in 1973, it is susceptible to flooding of greater than a 1 in 100 year event and it has totally inadequate parking available for visitors, staff, doctors and patients.

It is logical to expect that the site for this very expensive new utility will be on an expansive site that will be above the maximum probable flood level, provide for future expansion as the Tweed Shire population continues to grow, allow for the provision for other allied facilities such as an ambulance station, police station, state emergency service, a helicopter pad and also a fire station.

And it should not be sited within an area zoned for future urban expansion.

I have personally taken a keen interest in this major project and I have submitted to the company which has been engaged to carry out the wide ranging exercise of due diligence required to identify this very important site. For obvious reasons that submission was made in confidence, but I had taken into account all of the factors mentioned above.

Additionally, I had researched the significance of the site and its accessibility to the Pacific Motorway

to ensure that it provided the best possible access for this hospital to service the extended population from the Queensland /NSW border right down into Byron Shire.

The only area that I fear may be considered is the Cudgen plateau. I fear this because it may appear to be the easy solution. It has a long history of opposition to development

by Tweed Shire Council because it was identified by the state as being land of state significance following a protracted period of investigation, consultation and review by a project team of 10 members, of which I was a member, and which commenced its protracted inquiry and ultimate recommendation in July 2002.

The project area included land in the Tweed, Byron, Kyogle, Lismore, Richmond Valley and Ballina local government areas.

In my time in Tweed Shire Council, the following are four examples of attempts being made by various persons to gain approval to build on this land; a campus of the Southern Cross University (the University itself respected the State’s zoning of this land and ruled it out), a Church on a portion of this land which Council opposed successfully in a Court action, a proposal to build a major shopping centre on a farm within the land zoned as being of State Significance and more recently, a plan had reached an advanced stage of preparation to build a station on this land, before the authorities when made aware of its zoning, took no further action to build on this site.

So with this background, it is my fervent hope that the state authorities will respect their own forward planning and retain this magnificent parcel of agricultural land for future generations and do not allow it to be covered by buildings as so much of the red volcanic soils along the coast in Redland Shire to our north have been lost forever.

The role of a Rail Trail

The Northern Rivers is renowned for its high percentage of politically motivated residents. Over the last few years, there has been an apparent stalemate regarding the best use of the rail corridor which from 1894 until its closure in 2004, was a rail service between the NSW Northern Rivers towns of Casino to Murwillumbah. This rail service was closed by the Carr government 14 years ago, as it saw increasing maintenance costs blowing out in the light of decreasing patronage.

Questions over Men’s Shed

Local newspapers are still reporting that the Pottsville & District Men’s Shed (PADMS) has no home. Ho hum. Two council reports identified Crown Land at the Barry Sheppard Sports Field as a permanent home

but they rejected it for no good reason. Other viable offers have also been refused.

For years PADMS were advised to make a formal application to Crown Lands to find out what’s available and then apply for it, but they would not. Once council approved the temporary Black Rocks site, PADMS spent their taxpayer-funded grant money erecting a temporary dwelling. Council’s General Manager confirmed that after five years they must move.

PADMS are still whining that they are looking for a home but cannot find one. The truth, I suspect, is they aren’t actively looking at all and have no intention of being anywhere but Black Rocks. It appears that they have dug their heels in and won’t budge. Perhaps by crying constantly the public will sympathise?

At the March 2017 Council meeting Cr Reece Byrnes tipped the scales between the conservative and progressive councillors. It appeared that Labor ‘saved the day’ for PADMS in a hugely political point-scoring exercise. Somehow endangered coastal koalas got left out of the equation based on PADMS (who are not koala experts) saying that koalas can live with human activity, however noisy. This contrasted sharply with prominent koala expert Dr Steve Phillips who said, in his opinion, construction and operation of the Men’s Shed would create ‘a strong likelihood of significant impact on the Black Rocks koala population.

PADMS is still playing the same old game. Will the community get hoodwinked and fall for this line once again? It’s time to wake up to the charade.

First Australian rights

I am shocked to hear that the Queensland Government is ready to extinguish Native Title rights of the Wangan and Jagalingou traditional owners of the land on which the Adani Carmichael coal mine is set to be built.

On four occasions since 2012 the W&J traditional owners have voted unanimously at an authorisation meeting to reject an Indigenous Land Use Agreement with Adani, u n d e rl i n i n g t h e i r s u s t a i n e d opposition to the mine. However, the Government has refused to wait until their Federal Court case to challenge extinguishment of their Native Title rights is heard next March.

As if our indigenous people have not suffered enough! We have invaded their land, murdered their people, stolen their children and wages, and destroyed their

culture. They fought long and hard for Native Title rights over their land. Why is another blow being inflicted on our First Australians?

It seems that Native Title rights are simply a symbolic gesture which can be retracted at any time that development and dollars get in the way.

The W&J traditional owners strenuously object to the Adani Carmichael coal mine and deplore the degradation that the Adani mining project will wreak on their culture, environment and ancestral lands. Why isn’t the Government listening to them? I encourage your readers to register their objection to this injustice on our First Australians by sending an email to thepremier@ premiers.qld.gov.au .

Beware of drowning dangers

Summer is here, and there is no better place than the local swimming pool to cool off and spend time with friends and family.

Australian communities, whether in the city or the bush, are dotted with public swimming pools of all shapes and sizes, some built well over 50 years ago. They are the hub of many neighbourhoods. We urge Australians to use these pools all year round, but particularly over summer.

Some of my favourite childhood memories are of my local pool; swimming with friends, warming up on the concrete in between bombs, and enjoying red frogs from the canteen. Later, with my own son, we initially chose the local pool that had a children’s pool and plenty of shade.

Remember that although the pool lifeguards are highly trained, they are not babysitters. They need your help. Some pools have introduced programs to keep you off your phone and focused on your child’s safety.

Actively supervise and stay within arm’s reach of children under 5.

Look out for signage, talk to the lifeguard, introduce your kids and explain the rules.

Last summer we had great weather, but there were too many tragic drowning incidents, many in rivers, beaches and home pools.

This summer, why not try the local pool? Let’s keep the heart of the community open so everyone can stay safe and healthy.

in 2004, there has been a hopeful bunch of politically minded people that have doggedly insisted that this region “needs” and “deserves” the train back, even though in 2012, the NSW government commissioned the “Arup Report” at a cost of $2 million, which determined amongst many details, that it would then have cost $940 million to reinstate a rail service. This report also stated that the only viable use of the corridor was to build a rail trail on it, which would require removal of the tracks to asphalt the surface to accommodate cyclists, walkers and horse riders etc.

L o c a l re s i d e n t s h ave b e e n witnessing an ongoing “debate” on trails versus rail, when clearly, no government has expressed any interest in committing the enormous funds needed to get trains back.

Indeed, the corridor even entirely misses two of the major centres in our region, Ballina and Tweed Heads.

Trains are magnificent in reducing traffic congestion during peak hours in our cities, and for transporting the likes of iron ore and coal from pits to ports, but in a region where retiree hobby farmers with SUVs are dotted along most of this northern corridor, it’s no wonder governments have no incentive to even start to consider a rail rebuild along the 1894 alignment.

So, we find ourselves in this ongoing debate over an argument that in all reality doesn’t even exist.

Governments are loathe to secure funding for projects that don’t have clear community support, even though the Northern Rivers Rail Trail (NRRT) recently ran a crowd funding campaign which raised an incredible $75,000 devoted to its engineering plan.

In order to secure the corridor in public ownership, and from the fate of sell-off into private hands, which haunts disused government assets, there must be a united wish for holding on to the corridor for future use. And in order to achieve this, the whole community must realise that governments are not going to fund rail infrastructure on this corridor, and that there is only one viable runner, a rail trail, as our only hope of securing our corridor for future use. We must all be very clear that we either use the corridor, or run the increasing likelihood of losing it altogether.

Wedding bells for first same-sex marriages

SOME OF the first same-sex marriages in Australia took place across the Tweed Shire on Tuesday, January 9, marking the first day in Australian history that LGBTQI couples can now legally marry.

Already a hot spot for weddings, the Tweed once again provided a stunning range of settings for two

couples with the first at Summer Grove Estate, Carool, at midnight.

The Summer Grove Estate wedding was between Commonwealth Games sprinter Craig Burns and his partner of three years and fellow athlete,Luke Sullivan.

The wedding attracted a huge media presence and marked a historical moment in what for many will be a day to remember.

Craig told the ABC he had not considered marriage until he met Luke.

“It’s another way to show your love and appreciation of your partner in front of the people in your life,” he said.

“Not being able to do that, it kind of sucks a bit - you want to be able to show your partner you love them.”

The second wedding took place at dawn at Point Danger and was organised by celebrant and wedding planner Shane Vincent, who pulled together the Tweed’s and Queensland’s best wedding vendors to give one lucky gay couple the ceremony of their dreams.

Shane married Cabarita Beach locals Michelle Edwards and Zoe Nolan as the sun rose over Point Danger.

Zoe, a former Australian Matilda, has been with Michelle for 11 years and had never thought about getting married or even discussed it until recently.

“It’s always been easier to not talk about it than to be upset by the fact we were unable to share this right,” Michelle said.

“We are so excited to finally have the opportunity to celebrate our love and be recognised by Australia as equals and have equal rights.”

Over $10,000 of time and services was donated by the vendors who

made the lucky couple’s dream wedding a reality..

“I have been a big advocate for marriage equality in Australia and what better way to celebrate than to make one gay couple’s dreams come true,” celebrant Shane Vincent said.

Many more same-sex weddings took place on Tuesday, January 9, and are taking place across the Tweed Shire as the legislation allowing same-sex marriage under the Marriage Amendment (Definition and Religious Freedoms) Act 2017, passed the Australian Parliament on December 7.

4/42 MACHINERY DRIVE, SOUTH TWEED

2018 IS shaping up to be a bright year for the former Poinciana Motel on Tweed Valley Way, South Murwillumbah, after the accommodation was reopened on December 22 - nine months after the devastating Tweed flood.

Owners Bruce and Susan Weston have owned and operated the motel for the past 15 years and have a passion for both the Tweed Valley and their business.

But nothing could have prepared them for the flood waters that swept through their property on March 31, 2017, destroying much of their downstairs accommodation including their onsite residence.

Fortunately, the couple had flood insurance, which has helped in replacing much of the refurbishment plus some of their own investment to get back on their feet.

“We’ve decided the refurbishment and reopening provided a great opportunity to change the name with a fresh approach to the motel with the name now The Galley Motel,” Mr Weston said.

“It’s a change we felt was more in line with the region’s offerings and many people are either travelling to the gallery along Tweed Valley Way anyway, so we figured the change was a positive one.”

But that’s not all that’s new at The Galley Motel with the installation of new bathrooms, carpeting, Wifi in every room,

plus a range of gadgets such as Chromecast and two Tesla battery power stations for electric vehicles.

“We felt like it was chance to start afresh by embracing some of the new technology available in the rooms and incorporating power saving devices such as LED lighting and solar panels,” Mrs Weston said.

Mr Weston said where possible the couple used local tradespeople and local suppliers.

“It’s important we use and support our local businesses and we made sure we did this where possible throughout the refurbishment,” he said.

Barking Toad Murwillumbah is also currently undertaking a redesign of the motel’s logo and signage, which is expected to be completed and erected in the coming days.

The couple also wanted to extend their gratitude to the local community for their assistance in the flood and ongoing support from the community for the motel to reopen.

“We were absolutely amazed by the support that came from everywhere,” Mr Weston said.

“It’s a real testament to the resilience and community strength of the Shire and something we should all be proud of.”

The couple said help came from local neighbours, church groups and children.

To find out more about The Gallery Motel phone: (02) 6672 3666 or visit 453 Tweed Valley Way.

PLANS FOR the next stage of the Knox Park development in the form of a toilet block is gaining momentum with the construction of a single new facility likely to replace the current two toilet blocks.

Council’s Unit Coordinator of Recreation Services Matt McCann told The Weekly that Council had no immediate plans to close either of the two existing toilet facilities at Knox Park after a development application was lodged in December to demolish the two toilet blocks.

“As part of the Masterplan for this site – Stage 2A incorporates the installation of a new modern toilet facility similar to the one at Jack Evans Boat Harbour,” Mr McCann said.

“The plan is to place the toilet in a more central location within the park taking away the need for the two older facilities that currently exist.

“There is no plan to close any toilet facility at Knox Park until a new toilet is built in a more central location, taking away the need for the existing two older facilities.”

But a snag in funding could delay development of the facility as Council seeks State Government grant funding through The Stronger Communities Fund (SCCF).

“Unfortunately, Council has no existing funds to build a new toilet facility and have applied for funding through a grant opportunity called The Stronger Communities Fund,” Mr McCann said.

“The SCCF has been established by the NSW Government to support regional communities and help deliver local infrastructure projects.

“The purpose is to provide the kind of infrastructure that improves the lives of local residents - from park-lands to health centres and community halls.

“As a result, this fund will also ensure regional communities across NSW remain attractive and vibrant places to attract residents and new visitors.”

Meanwhile, Nullum House in Knox Park, which was formerly an active community centre prior to the 2017 Tweed flood has been earmarked for possible refurbishment.

Dr Betty’s collectables sale attracts attention

HOT WATER & GAS HEATING SPECIALISTS

A RARE collection of homewares belonging to local icon Doctor Betty Marks has recently been placed on display for sale at New Release Antiques Murwillumbah, with several items attracting the eye of collectors.

Ornate tea settings, hardwood furniture, rare porcelain figures from across the world and silverware, are just a sample of what’s on offer and the best part is the prices.

The items came after Dr Betty, a highly revered local doctor who worked tirelessly for 66 years in medicine up until her retirement at age 90, decided to move to Melbourne.

Despite her absence, Dr Betty remains a popular local figure for her outstanding commitment to her patients and as one local family described her “a rock to our family�. “Dr Betty always made the time for her patients and many would wait hours or days to see her,� one local told The Weekly.

New Release Antiques manager Jenny Leneven with some of Dr Betty’s collection

James Marks who retired in 1976. Dr Betty retired in 2014.

The sale of a portion of her impressive collection was handled by her family members and at the request of the family is being made available at affordable prices.

New Release Antiques manager Jenny Leneven told The Weekly that some of the items were “extremely well priced�. “It’s a truly amazing collection and at the request of the family the prices have been marked lower, in many cases lower than their true value,� she said.

The collection has already sold a range of items including several tea sets, silverware and furniture with plenty of interest from collectors, but also from Dr Betty’s fans.

Mrs Leneven said there had been a lot of interest from local nurses keen to own a piece of the collection. “There’s been about 15 nurses come in and talk about how much they admired Dr Betty’s work,� she said. “Many are just keen to own something that belonged to Doctor Betty.�

Solar rebates are set to decrease

Australian households and businesses continue to embrace solar energy at a rapid pace in a bid to avoid rising electricity costs.

The STC delivers real upfront savings to Aussies moving towards renewable energy and is not to be confused with the feed it tariff that is an ongoing discount determined by your electricity retailer (that’s a story for another day). So just what is an STC and why do you need them right now?

Understanding the federal STC rebate The federal government currently offers a financial incentive designed to encourage Australian homes, businesses and community groups to take up solar in a bid to meet our renewable energy target by 2030. This incentive comes in the form of an STC (Small scale Technology Certificate) which is applied directly to the solar system at the time of installation. As the end user, you do not need to pay up front or claim any money back, you are not out of pocket, the incentive is built in to your upfront cost of your solar system.

Under the governments Renewable Energy Target scheme (RET), the current STC calculation will reduce again at the end of the year and will do so each year until it is phased out in 2030, so if you’ve been considering solar, now is the time to act.

Today, the STC incentive for a 6.6kW system is just shy of $4,200.00, fast forward to January and the annualisation of the STC scheme has come into effect and this will have dropped significantly to around $3,890.00, dependant on the STC value, that’s a difference of $400 in a matter of months.

To secure the current STC price, it’s worth that noting your solar system must be installed and operational before the 31st of December, taking into account that solar just doesn’t happen overnight. By the time you’ve signed your contract, its then over to the supply authority to apply for a grid connect, and this can take anywhere from 2 to 8 weeks, and then there’s installation and finally operation. From the time you sign, to the time your STC’s take effect, you will need to allow a period of eight weeks, so don’t delay, ACT NOW and save yourself some serious money before the December 31st deadline.

advising that it could not,” she said.

Council’s Acting Director of Engineering Paul Morgan said Council considered a report on the matter on April 21, 2016, under both former and current Councillors.

“It is a complex situation as a significant length of the track previously used by the public are not in the Wabba Road Reserve but within private property, so owner’s consent would be required to continue using the current track,” Mr Morgan said.

Mr Morgan acknowledged that Wabba Road had been used by horse and bicycle riders, bushwalkers and runners to access Mooball National Park over an extended period.

“These persons have entered Lot 1, with or without the consent of the landowner, where the physical formation of the track directed them, as well as traversing over old banana tracks within Lot 1, well away from the road reserve,” he said.

“Anecdotal advice is that the horse riders and bike riders also used the banana tracks to avoid disturbing the landowner.

“It’s clear that such use had to occur only with the consent of the landowner, and when such consent was withdrawn, the response by these users, in particular horse riders, was through correspondence to Council and the State Government representatives.”

According to records, the landowner, initially allowed access for horse riders and bicycle riders, however, as such use escalated over time, the landowner no longer wished to allow these people to traverse the property, and has installed a sign at the entrance to the land and placed an electric fence across the old banana track.

“The landowner has expressed concern to Council about the expectation of unimpeded access by these users to the National Park, and has lodged the application to close the road,” Mr Morgan said.

“The application was received in early 2016 and it was decided to advertise the intention to close the road prior to Council determining the application.”

According to Council, the landowner has agreed create a non-vehicular access point to the national park but has been delayed due to the March 2017 major flood event.

“In late October 2017 the newly proposed road was inspected by both Council and National Parks officers and has been deemed to be acceptable,” Mr Morgan said.

“The vehicular access has now been formed and the fencing of the non-vehicular new road reserve is near completion.

“Council understands that a survey of the works and proposed boundaries will be completed shortly.”

AN ONGOING dispute over access to the Mooball National Park from Wabba Road and Cudgera Creek Road has reignited in 2018, with fresh calls from Tweed-Byron Trail Horse Riders Club Inc to Tweed Shire Council to complete a public easement in order to access the iconic park.

Trail Horse Riders Club members and secretary Debra Minto along with mountain bike riders caught up with The Weekly on Tuesday, January 9, to highlight that access could become “extremely difficult” with the proposed alternate access route.

Mrs Minto said the trail had been accessed by horse riders and walkers since the 1970s.

The current access issues have emerged due to the construction of a private dwelling on the public road reserve several years ago.

In February 2016 Council advertised the proposed closure of Wabba Road and subsequently received over 200 written submissions objecting the closure.

Councillors later voted to partially close the road on the provision that a Right of Carriageway for vehicular access for the Office of Environment & Heritage is created over Lot 1 and a suitable alternate road reserve is created to provide non-vehicular public access to the Mooball National Park.

“This is an appalling situation for the riding club and other public users, with now no access at Wabba Road into one of the great riding trails in the Tweed Shire,” Mrs Minto said.

“The property has now been fully enclosed by a fence, including sections of the public road reserve - Wabba Road.

“The route appears to follow a steep dropoff toward the bottom end of the newly constructed dam. Uneven terrain in such close proximity to a barbed wire fence raises safety concerns for both horse riders and mountain bikers.

“We as a club believe that the current Councillors and Council staff should undertake a site visit to determine the best way forward, and yes that could include raising a fresh motion with current Councillors.

“Council has not consulted with the recreation user groups who have used this trail for decades.

“The current Councillors need to be made aware of what has happened and attend the site visit to determine the best way forward.”

Mrs Minto said the most recent letter received from Tweed Shire Council dated November 21, cited flood damage for the reason for the delay where heavy machinery could not access the property via Cudgera Creek Road.

However, she alleges that since that date significant earthworks and tree clearing have been completed at the Cudgera Creek Road property.

“Heavy machinery seems to have travelled along Cudgera Creek Road, despite Council

Tweed house prices predicted to rise in 2018

GROWTH IN house prices continued across the Tweed Shire throughout 2017, with coastal areas such as Pottsville and Cabarita and parts of the Tweed Valley recording growth in median house prices of around 20 per cent in just 12 months, with continued growth predicted for the first half of 2018.

The coastal boom reached Pottsville in 2017 where median house prices increased by 17 per cent to $665K and units grew by 16 per cent to $458K. Bogangar also saw similar growth with its median house price increasing by 19 per cent to $673K, whilst units dropped 2.5 per cent to $385K. Further up the coast Casuarina homes hit a high of $916K last year but have not shown any growth over the past 12 months, whilst Kingscliff house prices lost two per cent.

Median house prices grew substantially in the Tweed Valley, despite the devastating impacts of the flood, Tumbulgum house prices rose 19 per cent to $520K, South Murwillumbah increased by 20 per cent to $440K and Murwillumbah inched closer to the half a million mark, rising 14 per cent to $452K. Sales remained relatively strong throughout the Tweed with slightly less sales recorded in most areas compared to the previous year.

Deb Wheeler, Principal at Raine and Horne Murwillumbah told The Weekly in late 2017 that the current market is “quite buoyant with strong buyer activity across both residential and small rural lifestyle properties”.

“There has been a slight increase in listings in the past quarter, but the buyer demand continues to outstrip the availability of suitable properties for sale; currently it is a sellers’ market,” she said.

“Murwillumbah has experienced a period of property price growth over the past 12-18 months, but in context, the area was going through a ‘catch-up’ period, coming off a relatively low base when compared to price surges that had occurred earlier around the Gold Coast/ Tweed and the Tweed Coast areas.”

Ms Wheeler said the Murwillumbah market was showing some signs of cooling but future interest rate rises are likely to have minimal impact on house prices.

“Prices now seem to have levelled out, but buyers are not willing to pay over market price, even despite the relatively low number of properties on the market for sale,” she said.

“It is hard to predict what type of impact rate rises will have on the local market, but given that the average price of homes in Murwillumbah is $417,000 compared to the median price of homes in Sydney being more than $1 million, it is expected that any impact of a 0.25 per cent rate rise will be minimal.”

Now is a good time to sell according to Ms Wheeler who said a high volume of buyers along with increased interest during and after the Commonwealth Games would increase demand for Tweed properties.

“It is a good time to sell, there are a lot of pre-approved buyers in the market and they are always keen to inspect new stock,” she said.

“In my view, 2018 has much to offer in real estate terms. There will be a lot of interest in our area generated by the Commonwealth Games, interest rates should remain relatively low and we are finishing the year with strong buyer activity which should carry on through the early part of 2018.”

David Stringer Principal at DJ Stringer Property Services said the real estate market had been “electric during 2017 and certainly a seller’s market”.

“The lack of stock and a surge of buyer enquiry has seen property prices increase considerably,” Mr Stringer said.

“The market is exceptionally strong and buyers still want value, for units close to the beach and homes of all calibres close to amenities. The demand for rural properties has also been strong.

Mr Stringer said he predicted ongoing demand for properties in the first half of 2018 fueled by ongoing buyer demand and the Commonwealth Games.

“The first quarter in 2018 will see a swarm of buyer activity with hopefully more property being listed to suffice demand – coupled with the hype surrounding the Commonwealth Games in April 2018, we see this quarter setting up what will be a record breaking 2018.”

Sally Mather of First National Murwillumbah said the current market is “still quite strong” and now is a great time to list your property.

“We have listed a lot of properties in the last quarter,” she said. “In the past 90 days there has been a total of 48 properties listing in Murwillumbah itself, this doesn’t include other areas of the Tweed Valley.

“Sales enquiries have been very strong this year. We live in such a diverse area where we have a range of buyers looking for all different things but residential in Murwillumbah always has the shortest days on market.

“I believe the first quarter will be as productive as this past quarter. The New Year always presents new opportunities, with people relocating to and from the area.”

NOMINATIONS ARE now being accepted for representatives of stakeholder groups to join the Bray Park Weir Tidal Protection Project Reference Group.

Successful nominees will join a project reference group considering options to mitigate the entry of salt water into the Tweed Shire water supply, as occurred when a combination of high tides plus an unforeseen sea level anomaly caused the weir to be overtopped twice in August 2017.

Tweed Shire Council Director of Engineering David Oxenham said this is an issue which will become more of a frequent concern over time due to the impact of climate change and subsequent increases in sea levels.

“We have already had a number of stakeholders register their interest in being part of this group and they have been contacted about nominating,” Mr Oxenham said.

“We now want to make sure anyone else who might have something to contribute has an opportunity to put their name forward.

“This project seeks to identify and assess a range of options to reduce the risk of salt water ingress into Bray Park Weir, both now and into the future, and to identify a preferred option for Council’s consideration.”

The events in August, which at no time posed any risk to human health, came at a time when river flows were low due to low rainfall levels in the catchment.

Mr Oxenham said Council staff will monitor conditions during upcoming peak high tide periods.

If staff assess there to be a risk a number of temporary measures have been adopted which will protect the weir pool.

These measures involve concrete blocks and sandbags, which can be put in place when required and left for a week at a time, but the project reference group will look into a more permanent solution.

A page dedicated to the Bray Park Weir Tidal Protection Project has been set up on

the Your Say Tweed community engagement portal at yoursaytweed.com.au.

The page includes the latest project news, key dates and a document library including the nomination form for the project working group.

The library also includes the terms of reference for the group along with a number of reports about the original inundation.

Nominations close on Wednesday, January 31.

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

Local bee man leaves sweet memories Aboriginal Cultural TWEED SHIRE residents will celebrate the life of local icon and apiarist Victor Metcalfe at his funeral on Friday, January 12, after he passed away on Friday, December 29 The Weekly spoke with Victor’s family on Monday, January 8, who provided some background information on Victor who was fondly known locally as the “bee man”.

His nickname not only represented his passionate work as an apiarist but also his concerns for one of the Earth’s greatest pollinators.

Victor shared his views on the plight of local and national bees with The Weekly on several occasions. He also aided bee colonies at risk of extermination, due to their location, by helping rehome them.

Victor’s family told The Weekly that Vic was always up for a chat especially to share his knowledge of bees.

“He used to teach many young people the trade of bee keeping and had a few that helped him with different things as he got older,” a spokesperson for the family said.

Among Victor’s biggest concerns for the future of the Northern Rivers bee population was the ravenous pest known as the Small Hive Beetle which consumes bee brood, pollen and honey and is destroying the local industry.

Small hive beetles feed on bee larvae and turn honey into a disgusting fermented slime and Mr Metcalfe had previously told The Weekly he had been operating about 155 bee hives on his Stokers Siding property in June 2016 until the beetle attacked.

Heritage Management exhibition extended

Since arriving in Sydney in 2002, the beetles have spread north to the Queensland border and are causing extensive damage to hives in areas with a warm humid climate.

“In some cases, they may lead to a total collapse of bee colonies,” Mr Metcalfe previously told The Weekly.

Victor was born in Lismore in October 20, 1945, to Clara Ridley and Lenard Metcalfe and was one of six children.

A devoted husband, Victor spent his life committed to his loving wife Betty Metcalfe.

Victor was a passionate St George Illawarra fan, enjoyed listening to Slim Dusty and watching Western films, but his real passion was working with bees.

He also loved babysitting his grandkids and enjoying an occasional scotch in the afternoon.

Victor worked for Tweed Shire Council for 25 years, but retired due to medical reasons and this was when he started to work on his bee hives.

His honey has a local reputation as some of the finest with supplies provided to Sunnyside Soul Pattinson Chemist Victor played footy for a Lismore team in his teens and continued his passion for footy.

A proud moment for Victor was seeing his picture hanging up in Medtronic in Sydney for being the first man to have one of their stents done.

See The Weekly Memorials page 47 for more information.

THERE’S STILL time to make a submission on Tweed Shire Council’s draft Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Management Plan (ACHMP), with the submission period extended to mid January.

The shirewide planning policy, prepared to protect Tweed’s Aboriginal cultural heritage identifies and maps the landscape locations of Aboriginal cultural heritage and provides a framework for the consideration and assessment of Aboriginal cultural heritage as part of all development applications within these mapped locations.

The ACHMP has been on exhibition since October 17 and submissions were due to close in December, however, a number of Terranora residents had expressed concern that they were not aware of the exhibition and have requested more time to make submissions, Council’s Acting Director Planning and Regulation, Iain Lonsdale said.

“Given a high proportion of Terranora residents who have been in contact with Council have indicated that they were not aware of the ACHMP and/or the formal exhibition period, submissions will be received and considered outside of this formal exhibition period until Friday, January 19,” he said.

“This will enable additional opportunity for the Terranora residents and broader community to review the material and make a submission.”

An additional ACHMP community workshop will be held in the Terranora area in the New Year to provide the opportunity for residents to directly discuss any concerns or queries with the ACHMP project team. The date, time and venue will be advised as soon as possible.

During the exhibition period Council Officers have held 11 community-based workshop across the Tweed, with a number of advertisements and media releases appearing in both the Tweed Link and local newspapers in the lead up and during the exhibition period.

Special Feature...

How to Zero Your Power Bill - and Stay Connected to the Grid On the 1st July power prices increased by 20% in NSW. Solar Feed in Tariffs doubled. In this special report you will find out how you can get the most benefit from solar power on your house and minimise the impact of higher power prices.

If You Use Less Than 10 kWh per Day...

Install 5-8 kW of Solar Panels to Eliminate your power bill

With Feed in tariffs at 12-16c you can now sell power back to the grid as part of a strategy to minimise and eliminate power charges completely. Production from 2.5 kW of solar - about 10 panels - will offset the dreaded electricity supply charge when all the generated power is exported. You now get half as much for the power you sell as it costs you to buy from the grid. If you export enough, the rest of your power charges can be eliminated. This strategy is ideal for retirees or small households.

If You Use 10-25 kWh per Day...

Install 5-8 kW of Solar Panels and Batteries if Export is Limited If Essential Energy will let you export 5 kWh or more to the grid, then stacking your roof with as many solar panels as possible will work well for you. If export is limited, consider storing extra power in a battery bank for night time use. A combination of solar for export, self use maximised during the day and battery storage is a great strategy to bring your bill closer to zero for medium households with 3-4 people.

If You Use More Than 25 kWh per Day...

Install 8+ kW of Solar Panels and Solar Batteries Export 5 kWh to the grid, use as much as you can during the day and store power for night time use in a larger bank of solar batteries. Power prices are expected to rise by another 50% in the next 2 years, so everything you put in now will work even better in the years to come. Get a free energy plan from 888 Solar Tek because every home is different and you need help to get your solar system sized right and working perfectly.

Solar Batteries Ensure You Never Have Blackouts in the Storm Season

Solar Rebate to Drop in 2018 But Don’t Panic!

Every year, for the next 14 years, the value of subsidies for new installations of solar panels will fall. The payment is made based on the installation date, so many solar companies are getting people into a panic to sign up now or miss out. The incremental decrease is about $300 less for a 6 kW solar system installed after 31st Dec 2017.

Don’t Panic! 888 Solar Tek will pay the full 2017 rebate for any system ORDERED before 31st of Dec 2017 regardless of install date.

You also get 2 Extra Panels Free with any Solar System

Until the 22nd Decemebr 2017, 888 Solar Tek will add two extra panels to each New solar system ordered for FREE! You get 2 extra 270 Watt, tier 1 Seraphim solar panels - over half a kW more power with our highest quality Seraphim panels - the first panel in the world to ever pass the Photon Labs independent torture test. You will also receive FREE solar WiFi monitoring, setup on your phone, tablet or computer & expert tuition on how to get the most from your solar system.

Possums to reopen next month

POSSUMS COMMUNITY Preschool is set to reopen for the school term at its original 20 McLeod Street premises in Condong, after the business was forced to close for more than nine months due to the 2017 Tweed flood.

The property was so badly affected by flood water that the preschool was forced to vacate the property, a former church, and took up residence at Tumbulgum Public School.

Following a lengthy process to apply for the school to be refurbished, builders from ARMAC Construction were quick to get stuck in, according to Possums director Karen Shackell.

“The bulk of the work took ARMAC about six weeks and they’ve done an amazing job,” she said.

Ms Shackell told The Weekly that she wanted to extend her deepest gratitude the Tumbulgum Primary School, local businesses, residences and the wider community for their support.

“There’s so many people to list and we’re just so grateful for the support to get this beautiful preschool back up and running,” she said.

“I’d like to extend a special thank you to Tumbulgum Public School Principal Jenni McKeon and staff, who have been a huge help by allowing Possums to continue at Tumbulgum.”

The new preschool offers a whole new range of exciting activities and play spaces for preschool children, as well as a great outdoor adventure playground.

Ms Shackell said the pre-school was already receiving a range of interest from local parents and was keen to hear from other families.

“We are delighted to be reopening from February 1 and would encourage parents to get in early as places are filling fast,” she said.

For those who can’t attend, signature events from around the state will be live-streamed to the TAFE NSW Facebook page throughout the week, with extended hours and extra activities for ‘TAFE Tuesday’ at select campuses.

10 Tips for a better start to the school year Back to school tip #1: Keep lunch boxes easy (for mum) While we all want to love and nurture our children by packing the best and most exciting lunch box possible, we also need to balance our aspirations against reality. Making sure morning routines are achievable and easy is the key to a successful lunch box, not the fanciness of your pinwheel sandwiches.

It takes some time to find the right snack ideas the kids will love and you will find easy to prepare while there are other priorities to attend to.

Back to school tip #2: Create a laundry routine that works Washing. Oh so much laundry, washing and ironing to do.

School brings new laundry management routines to stop dirty clothes baskets exploding before you get the chance to wash all those stained uniforms and dirty socks.

Back to school tip #3: Make mornings organised Trying to get out the door on time when a school bell or a work commitment beckons makes for a stressful time before

9am. Clever mums know that a morning routine that works is the key to starting the day happy, prepared and ready to leave the house with a smile.

Back to school tip #4: House work during term time should be eased A busy school year means less time washing the floors and tidying so you can spend time where it really counts.

That might mean making extra minutes for homework help, reading the reader or sorting out the sports gear.

Back to school tip #5: Keep time Whether you’re trying to speed your kids up (to get them out the door, say) or slow them down (as they practice reading), clocks become a useful device once the kids reach school age.

Explaining time, routines and showing the children how to read the time for themselves will give your kids the power to keep themselves organised (without nagging from you).

Back to school tip #6: Ready, set breakfast

A healthy nutritious breakfast not only puts kids in the right mood for learning, but blesses mothers with a righteous feeling of success that they managed to have their children eat well at the right time of day. Kids as young as four or five can get a bowl of cold cereal for themselves, and as they get older they can learn to safely use the toaster or microwave.

Back to school tip #7: Problems are a learning experience Term time at school isn’t always perfect and our children don’t always behave like angels or the genius we had hoped they would be. School rules, expectations and social pressures can be too much for our kids and it’s not uncommon for problems to rear their head once children settle in to the school year. It can be anything from bullies to learning problems to physical problems that come up and unsettle us – be ready to embrace them!

Back to school tip #8: You are the best teacher Learning always starts at home and your child’s mood affects how well he learns. A positive outlook is the best thing you can inspire in your children to keep them performing well at school and willing to tackle their homework.

Back to school tip #9: Labels, names and ownership Label all your child’s belongings, especially the school hat.

Encourage your child to dress themselves so they can manage things like taking jumpers or coats on and off at school.

Explain the concept of “lost property” to your kids, so they know how to find lost items on their own. Then cross your fingers and hope they have listened to you!

Back to school tip #10: Rules and behaviour Schools have a range of approaches to reinforce the good behaviour measures taught by parents – so learn what they are and make sure you can back them up at home! For students in the early years the focus will be on learning to work cooperatively with others and to follow instructions from the teacher. It’s a mother’s job to remind and reinforce the school rules at home so kids understand why certain actions are unacceptable.

Local News 29

Meetings to discuss solar and battery storage Pharmacies seeing rush TWEED SHIRE renewable energy provider The Solar Man is hosting two free public information sessions to discuss home battery power and the future of energy use with a Tesla representative on hand to present the latest information.

The two sessions will take place on Tuesday, January 16, with the first session at 10.30am and the second at 6pm at the South Tweed Community Hall on the corner of Heffron Street and Minjungbal Drive..

Local solar expert Arnaud Cugy from The Solar Man will be hosting the two free battery information sessions and will speak about specific opportunities for 2018.

Mr Cugy said he had structured the sessions to be broad, suiting home and business owners with or without solar.

“I will share inside industry information relevant to local homes and businesses,” Mr Cugy said.

“It will be the ideal opportunity to ask any specific questions you may have about your own property, or to learn about the latest technologies available.”

One of the biggest questions to be raised is whether battery storage is worth it.

According to The Solar Man, South Australia has the highest electricity prices in the world with NSW and Queensland following close behind.

“The latest report by the Clean Energy Council shows almost half our dreaded quarterly bill goes towards paying for the infrastructure that delivers our electricity,” a spokesperson for The Solar Man said.

“Solar and ‘off-grid’ discussions are becoming a hot topic and for good reason. A large proportion of a grid owners' income in Australia depends

on the valuation of the network. The basis of this deal has seen a massive infrastructure upgrade to the country’s grid over the past 25 years.

“This upgrade far surpasses the needs of the current supply system and has been widely criticised. To put it into perspective, the entire US network powering 135 million homes is valued at $US100 billion. The Australian network is valued at $US75billion and powers a much more conservative nine million homes.

“To rub salt in the wound the US typically pay around half the price for their average electricity bill.

“In short, regardless of energy consumption the grid owners are under an agreement in Australia whereby they will always earn a percentage of their total asset worth. In other words, when usage goes down prices can go up to cover their shortfall.

The spokesperson said that now more then ever we need viable solutions and with batteries becoming more

accessible 2018 is picked to be “The Year of the Battery”.

“This solution is much more cost effective and will produce savings significant enough to create a lucrative return on investment,” the spokesperson said, “It also means you will have Australia’s $75 billion gold plated grid to back you up should you have a spike in your electricity usage.

“By connecting a battery to your rooftop solar system, you can store and generate the majority of your own power.

“You will gain more control over the excess power you generate, be more self-sufficient, and by staying grid connected you can still maintain a level of security and peace of mind provided by the high-tech infrastructure on offer in Australia.”

for codeine products

TWEED SHIRE pharmacies are experiencing high demand for over-the-counter medications containing codeine as the Thursday, February 1, deadline looms for the drug to require a doctor’s script.

The Weekly spoke with several pharmacists who were unable to comment on the record, but said sales had been particularly high in the lead up with a limit of 40 pills per customer.

After February 1, all medications containing codeine will no longer be available from pharmacies. The reasoning behind this decision has been stated as the potential risk of codeine tolerance, dependence, poisoning and even death (in high doses).

According to the Australian Pain Management Association (APMA), codeine is an opioid drug which is similar to morphine, with a high health risk of developing tolerance or physical dependence.

“When tolerance occurs, codeine becomes less effective, and the body needs higher doses to create the same effect,” according to the APMA. “Once dependence has occurred, discontinuing use of codeine can lead to withdrawal symptoms such as head and muscle aches, insomnia, diarrhea, mood swings and nausea.

“Because some of these symptoms feel similar to the symptoms over-the-counter codeine products are used to treat, people can misjudge and continue taking codeine products in higher or longer doses.”

The APMA said overuse of codeine can result in serious internal bleeding, kidney failure and heart attack. Long term and/or high doses of paracetamol, which is often combined with codeine in medications such as Panadeine can result in liver damage.

“If you experience chronic pain and currently use overthe-counter medication containing codeine, we recommend that you speak with your GP to work out the best pain management plan for you,” the APMA said.

“Alternative options may include using different over-thecounter or prescription medicines, non-medicine therapies from an allied health professional such as a physiotherapist, self-management tools such as exercise and relaxation, or referral on to a pain specialist or pain management clinic.”

A NEW pop up market stall this week is on Bangalow Road with stallholders Naomi and Joel bringing their delicious raw, activated and cold pressed (insecticide free) Almond Milk to the market.

Naomi said that it is natural and pure; no gums, thickeners or preservatives and is handmade with love.

The Carool couple produce their products in a commercial kitchen in Byron Bay and supply it throughout the Northern Rivers so we are privileged to have them bring it to our market.

This week you can enjoy their ice cold chai latte almond milk or cold brewed coffee – both perfectly thirst quenching and nourishing on these hot summer days.

Bangalow Road will be fortnightly (next at the market on January 24) and can be found under the camphor laurel trees in the spot that is shared on alternate weeks with Belles Kitchen (next at the market on January 17).

Deliciously crunchy green beans. Yum! Jumping Red Ant has been picking up 100kgs per day - that means long eight hour days of back breaking picking as they have such an abundant crop right now.

So, this week let’s all celebrate locally grown green beans and thank our farmers including Cecil’s Farm and Everest Farm who also grow and supply fresh beans.

My current favourite way to enjoy green beans is very lightly steamed and served with a generous dash of toasted black sesame oil. Simply delicious hot or cold! And for extra crunch you can add a handful of toasted sesame seeds. This is too good to imagine, so try it out this week.

Costanzo Apples have delicious green grapes this week and blood plums – ever so popular and with such a short season so enjoy these while you can. Unfortunately their apricots got wiped out, so these will not be available this

Top calendar pick for 2018 Santaland a roaring success THERE’S PLENTY of amazing local 2018 calendars on offer across the Tweed Shire this year including one stand out from the Tumbulgum Community Association featuring Tumbulgum’s favourite furry friends.

The Weekly spoke with Tumbulugm Community Association president Jenny Kidd who said the calendar was a great community initiative.

The calendar features an array of images of local dogs in various hilarious poses for the camera, which are both well thought out and reflective of the Tumbulgum lifestyle.

“The calendar was made possible by the generous contributions of ideas and photographs by both residents who love their dogs and those who love our village,” Mrs Kidd said.

“Special thanks to our honorary guest photographer Leonie Jennings who is a regular visitor with her dog Pebbles.

“Leonie generously took the opportunities as they presented to capture the large landscape photographs that appear in the calendar.”

One standout image was taken for December 2018 and features Boris the dog

by Josh Baker.

The calendar was proudly supported by and printed by the Print Spot Group Murwillumbah.

The calendars are available at the Tumbulgum General Store and Bakery for $15.

For further information about the Tumbulgum Community Association please email: tumbulgumcommunityassociation@ hotmail.com Sarah enjoyed having her photo taken with Santa at the Salvo’s Store, Murwillumbah

Tumbulugm Community Association president Jenny Kidd with the amazing local calendar

SANTALAND AT the Murwillumbah Salvo’s Store on Main Street has again been heralded a success after having its busiest year with locals of all ages lining up to have their photo taken with Santa.

The Salvo’s staff once again created a magical Christmas display while photos were taken by talented local photographer Kathy Booth for the bargain price of $8.

Murwillumbah and District Business Chamber Vice President Helen Stubbin said that 2017 was Santaland’s busiest year yet with several adults having their first ever Santa photo.

“Santaland was particularly enjoyable this time because many adults took the opportunity to have a photo with Santa,” Ms Stubbin said. “Several adults had never had a photo with Santa before.”

“One customer was 81 years old and she thoroughly enjoyed her photo shoot with

Santa and our fabulous photographer Kathy Booth.

Santaland will be back again for Christmas 2018 at the Salvo’s commencing on Saturday, December 1 and residents are being urged to put the date in their diary.

“Our Santaland doesn’t start as early as other Santa photo displays around the Tweed but we are worth the wait,” Ms Stubbin said.

“Our photos are a very good quality, the prices are reasonable, and the experience is fun and memorable.

“Large shopping centres can be avoided for a quieter Murwillumbah experience.

“Thank you to everyone who supported Santaland in 2017 and we look forward to your patronage again this year.

“The Board really appreciate the work that the Salvo’s staff put into our display and also the generous amount of floor space we are able to occupy for our photos.”

Join this year’s Murwillumbah Art Trail flood it’s timely and relevant to the community,� he said.

Dev pointed out that art was a fantastic medium to interpret and deal with life changing events. “MAT18 is about celebrating resilience in the face of traumatic events, but it’s also about how events - even ones that aren’t too traumatic shape our lives. It’s about Moving On.�

Creative Caldera and MAT18 said it’s a great pleasure to have engaged Dev in this role. “We are excited about MAT18 - there are some truly terrific things in the planning,� a spokesperson said.

Expressions of interest MAT18 and Creative Caldera invite visual artists, performers, musicians, sculptors, people from the arts to contribute to the Murwillumbah Art Trail 2018.

Artists, makers and creators will combine to make the event truly

memorable as part of the cultural life of our town.

Murwillumbah becomes the gallery and the town comes alive with interactive art works, dance, music, food, busking and everything imaginable in between.

The festival will redefine the way how artists and a small town interact to make an event that’s bigger than the sum of its parts.

Creative Director Dev Lengjel and the organising team of MAT18 invite artists to participate in what promises to be a landmark event for Murwillumbah.

MAT18 expects to attract more than 120 artists to exhibit and contribute to the international artists’ exchange.

Expressions of interest close on January 15, 2018.

For further information please email: dev@sculptureshow.net

FILMS th Mia wi

THE POST If during this school holiday period you had started to despair about serious-minded films ever coming back to Murwillumbah you can take comfort in the knowledge that The Post is coming to town, decisively bringing us into Academy Awards’s territory.

Steven Spielberg’s latest film has already won several awards in the US and six Golden Globe nominations, and will surely feature in the nominations for the forthcoming Oscar competition.

The Post is a docudrama about the early 1970s publishing by The Washington Post of the Pentagon Papers – documenting the involvement of the US government in the Vietnam War - but it is ultimately a film about the larger subject of press freedom and why it is such an important element in a democratic society. The film’s release in the US – and simultaneously in Australia - is very timely as it is coinciding with the latest controversy over the release of a book exposing the dark side of a presidency.

The Post stars Meryl Streep and Tom Hanks in memorable performances, the former in the role of The Post’s publisher – the first female newspaper publisher in the US - and the latter in the role of the newspaper’s executive editor. The two are united by their conviction of the need to defend the rights of the press to publish and to inform the public but have conflicting personalities, so the film is as much about the historical importance of the events surrounding the publication of the Pentagon Papers as it is about the dynamics between the two protagonists.

The film has been compared with All the President’s Men, the journalism film par-excellence winner of four Academy Awards in 1977. Let’s see how many will The Post win..!

THE MURWILLUMBAH Art Trail 2018 (MAT18) is pleased to announce the appointment of Dev Lengjel as its artistic director as expressions of interest for artists to get involved close on January 15.

An Ocean Shores resident and sometimes international traveller, Dev is the site curator for the Gold Coast’s SWELL sculpture festival.

A highly experienced organiser, talented artist and photographer in his own right, Dev is breathing new life and fresh ideas into the Murwillumbah arts community through the already iconic MAT18.

Dev visited The Weekly office this week to drum up some early publicity and to encourage artists to take part this year. “I look forward to the roll out of MAT18 and meeting Murwillumbah’s community,� he said. “The curatorial theme, Moving On, will use art to reflect on its meaning - moving on from relationships, childhood, communities and places of living, the awful 2017 flood.�

Dev invites the community to examine our community’s life through the prism of Moving On, to acknowledge its meaning, recognise its gravity and at the same time reinterpret it all with grace, creativity and good humour. “It’s a slightly difficult theme, but against the backdrop of the 2017

HILARIOUS COMEDY duo and muchloved North Coast locals Ellen Briggs and Mandy Nolan will perform several shows as part of their “Women Like Us” tour across the shire this month.

Although the first show at Pottsville Community Hall on Friday, January 12, is already sold out, there are still tickets available for the Uki Hall show on Saturday, January 13 (at the time of print).

It has been an incredible two and a half years on the road for Women Like Us comedians Ellen and Mandy, whose busy schedule has taken them all over Australia with rave reviews.

They call themselves ‘the bogan woman’s thinking woman and the thinking woman’s bogan’.

The show is two hours of stand-up comedy, an hour a piece by these powerful, no holes barred, tell it how it is pin-up girls for what they call “real women”.

“We want our comedy to demystify a lot of the garbage that we’re fed about being women,” Ellen said.

“We tell everyday stories about our struggles, our failure to parent, the beauty industry, getting fatter, strange surgeries, obsessions, frustrations, and at the end of the day who unpacks the dishwasher.”

The show sells out at nearly every stop which was something that initially surprised the two comedians, but now reinforces what they call “a need for truth”.

“Sure we’re making jokes,” Mandy said.

“Women are leaving our show thanking us not just for how much they laughed, but because they said we made them feel normal.”

Briggs and Nolan performed at the sold out Up Front showcase at Melbourne Comedy Festival at the Melbourne Town Hall last year and were clearly the comedy picks of the night.

One reviewer reported: “the two totally relatable ladies who hit the nail on the head of charismatic female comedy. Prepare yourself to be hunched over in hysterics!”

“But this isn’t just a show for women, the show is also for men who love women,” Mandy said.

“Men who have mothers, sisters, wives and daughters. Men who work with women.

Women Like Us is an opportunity for blokes to step inside the female psyche and get an insight into what we really think.

“So often women leave the show declaring ‘I wish I had brought my husband, he needed to hear this.”

Women Like Us guarantees two hours of non-stop laughter with crowds declaring it the funniest show they’ve seen.

The most common refrain is ‘I can’t believe you girls aren’t on television’ but TV wouldn’t handle Women Like Us. It has to be seen to be believed.

Tickets are $30 – womenlikeus.com.au or at the Uki Supermarket or at the door if not sold out.

DESCRIBED AS the bastard love child of Bill Hicks and Robin Williams, comedian Jonathan Atherton will present his hilarious show at the Kingscliff Bowling Club tonight (Thursday, January 11).

All Darkness and Light, Atherton has spent a decade as a full-time resident of Kuala Lumpur where he ran The Crackhouse Comedy Club, the first ever dedicated comedy club on the Malaysian comedy scene where he provided what he calls ‘stress relief and legal highs’.

Originally Brisbane based, Atherton has always had a love affair with the Tweed, with his legendary Corndale Hall shows and his numerous warm friendships forged over decades of performing.

A love of culture and adventure drew him away from the staid corridors of academia and into the heart of the third world. He spent most of the 80s travelling through Asia and Africa where he worked as tour guide, salvage diver, teacher, set builder, photographer, restaurateur and actor.

In Thailand in 1991, he was run over by a truck and evacuated to Australia where he spent over a year in traction, fighting gangrene, an antibiotic resistant infection and the devastating effects of 17 compound fractures to his legs, arms and spine.

He underwent a dozen major operations but he never lost his sense of humour.

In fact, the stories he brought back from his prolific travels formed the nucleus of his initial comedy performances. While still in plaster he was coaxed on stage by a cabaret singer who maintained that his poignantly hilarious anecdotes were funnier than the diatribe of the professional comedians who worked at the club where she performed.

Atherton is the headline act at the Kingy Comedy Night, which is a free event and starts at 7.30pm.

The show is supported by Paul McMahon and Mandy Nolan is MC.

Glorious race day at the Tweed River Jockey Club TWEED RIVER Jockey Club hosted a spectacular race meet on Sunday, January 7, with almost 1,000 people through the gates.

Jockey Club GM Leanne Moore said the second race meet for the club this year was a big success, with a great turnout.

“It was good to see local families and visitors enjoying the club facilities for

our second meet this year,” she said.

The Jockey Club also presented a $10,000 cheque to the Cook family, which was raised by the Tweed River Jockey Club Sportsman’s Lunch.

The family was rocked by the death of Grant Cook during a local rugby league match.

“The family was extremely grateful and said it will go a long way with the

kids’ schooling,” Ms Moore said.

Racing was hot to trot throughout the day with local star trainer Matthew Dunn chalking up several wins through his local business Matthew Dunn Racing.

Mr Dunn was also awarded the Summer Series of Racing Trainers Bonus of $5,000 with Bruce Hill in second place.

Having a win were the Tumby Punters Club members

SOMATIC THERAPY AND BODYWORK is now being offered by Meherpal in Tweed Heads. A powerful approach to helping to restore the central nervous system to calm, wellbeing and resiliency in a gentle yet powerfully effective process. Over 20 years experience.

Especially effective in helping to restore balance if suffering from trauma, whether present or past including PTSD, anxiety, shock, depression, addiction, sexual issues, grief, panic, confusion, relationship distress, abuse issues, physical illness that won’t heal like thyroid disease, adrenal fatigue, chronic fatigue, cancer, hormonal imbalances, auto-immune diseases, infertility, accidental trauma from motor vehicle accidents or falls, chronic pain,

immobility and generally just feeling unwell with no real understanding as why?

effective healing process I have found in my many decades of personal and spiritual exploration. Deep and powerful healing transformation has taken place within me as result of this therapy.

I am passionate about providing Somatic Therapy as I have found for myself personally this to be most the

Is your Psychology or Physical Therapy not working? Somatic Therapy works beyond the rational brain and takes us deep into the Limbic Brain to heal at the core where we store Trauma in the Autonomic Nervous System. We basically get stuck in the Body’s resource of Fright, Flight, and Freeze survival instinct and never fully come out this state back into a healthy functioning nervous system that is relaxed, calm and alert, but not in a high state of arousal or low state of immobility.

A sacrificial anode is a vital part of your water system, and having it inspected can be the difference between an efficiently working system and a costly replacement.

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.

POLICE BEAT

THE TWEED District Rescue Squad was recently presented with $5,000 in community grant funding, following a successful application through Southern Cross Credit Union’s 2017 Community Grants Initiative.

A s p a r t o f t h e i n i t i at i v e, SCCU offered local community organisations the opportunity to apply for one of three $5,000 Community Grants.

Recipients were decided based on the strength of their application and community engagement through voting.

“Words cannot describe how much a grant or donation means to our squad,” the rescue squad posted on their social media page.

“It may be crews cutting a vehicle open or rescuing a cat from a tree, whatever it may be it is the funding from generous donations and grants that has allowed Tweed Rescue VRA to operate and continue saving lives.

Thank you so much.”

The Rescue Squad will use the funds to purchase new life saving equipment. They have also recently announced the purchase of a new rescue vehicle called RESCUE $.

SCCU’s CEO Stuart Edwards said more than 60 applications were received from community groups and events throughout the region, attracting over 5,000 votes.

“It was an extremely difficult task to select our three recipients as all applicants undertake extremely

important work in our community,” he said.

“Support of the local community is an important function of customer owned institutions like Southern Cross Credit Union.

“As a customer owned financial institution, it is important to us to make a meaningful contribution to our local communities. The Community Grants Initiative is just one part of our wider Community Engagement Program, designed to show our appreciation of the communities in which we operate.”

The other two winners were Enova Community to train and deploy energy coaches within Byron Shire and Future Dreamers to fund their Summer Holiday 2018 Program.

Residents urged to get ready for storm season THE RICHMOND-TWEED SES is urging residents to be prepared for possible thunderstorms that are predicted for the Northern Rivers area towards the end of the week.

The Bureau of Meteorology had forecast the chance of a thunderstorm on Thursday, and Saturday at the time of print and a 50 per cent chance of rain on most days through to Tuesday, January 16.

According to the SES there are a few simple things you can do to prepare and help reduce the potential damage cause by severe storms.

1. Secure or put away loose items around your yard or on the balcony 2. Trim overhanging tree branches 3. Clean your gutters and downpipes

The storm that swept through the Tweed on Christmas day

4. Check that your roof is in good repair 5. Make sure your insurance is up-to-date 6. Prepare your Emergency Kit 7. Check on your neighbours

Community spirit shines at Christmas A FREE Christmas day lunch held at the Murwillumbah Community Centre had a great turnout with 45 guests enjoying the day and more than 40 volunteers helping make the day a possibility.

“To all those who gave food and time to make this possible a big thank you,” a spokesperson said “We had no difficulty getting

helpers because people contacted us after seeing advertisements in the Tweed Valley Weekly and the Community Centre Facebook site.”

The day began with carols that were thoroughly enjoyed by all followed by a short devotional about Christ being the greatest gift at Christmas.

The guests were served their lunch first, followed by the helpers, and

everyone sat together. According to the guests the food was as good as Sizzler.

“The program showed how church and community can work together to serve the community,” the spokesperson said.

The dinner was sponsored and organised by the Murwillumbah Seventh Day Adventist church.

Charges laid following Tweed pursuit Police stop reveals drugs and stolen goods Officer threatened A 47-YEAR-OLD Chinderah man will appear before Tweed Heads Local Court later this month following a high-speed pursuit that occurred at Tweed Heads South on Thursday, January 4.

Tweed Police said they were patrolling local streets in Tweed Heads South when they observed a red Toyota, Corona driving in a dangerous manner.

“Police activated lights and sirens in an attempt to stop the vehicle however the driver failed to stop and accelerated to avoid police,” Police said in a media statement.

“The vehicle was eventually stopped and the driver arrested and taken to Tweed Heads Police station where he was charged with traffic offences.”

The man was taken to The Tweed Hospital for blood and urine samples. He was granted bail and is due to appear before court on Monday, January 29.

A 37-YEAR-OLD Coolangatta man was arrested and charged with multiple offences after he was stopped at Tweed Heads in the early hours of Saturday, January 6.

Tweed Police said they were patrolling Rose Street, Tweed Heads, when they stopped a Holden Commodore to speak to the driver.

“During a search, police allegedly located methylamphetamine, two knives and an identification card believed to be stolen,” police said.

He was charged with supplying a prohibited drug, possessing a prohibited drug, two counts of possession of a knife in public and having goods suspected of being stolen.

He was refused bail and appeared before court earlier this week.

A CHINDERAH man has appeared before Tweed Heads Court earlier this week after he was arrested in Kingscliff on Friday, January 5 for making threats towards a police officer.

Tweed police said the man had threatened the police officer the day before and was arrested at Sand Street, Kingscliff.

He was refused bail and appeared before court on Monday, January 8.

Bowls Notes CABARITA BEACH Bowls Club is bemoaning the fact that long-time member and bowling icon, Joy Lake, is moving on to greener pastures.

Joy, and her husband Graham, are heading back to sunny Queensland to continue their retirement years in the Gold Coast hinterland.

Joy began bowling back in 1985 in Queensland and over the years has produced a formidable list of achievements.

In her early days, whilst a member of Coolum Bowls Club (Sunshine Coast), Joy made her mark winning the District Singles and Triples; was placed fifth in the State C of CC Singles and won the 1997 Maroochy New Year Singles.

with Judy Tuckey On moving down to NSW in 2000, Joy joined the Cabarita Beach Bowls Club and over the years since has built up an impressive dossier of grand accomplishments. The Club Honours Board is testament to Joy’s numerous successes in all championship principles that have been conducted during her time at Cabarita.

At the district level Joy has won three triples, two singles, one open fours and one senior fours and, on going forward, has won singles, triples and senior fours at the regional level.

Pennant was another success area as Joy skipped teams that won grade two five times at district level that went on to state level play-offs several times as well as the State Grade 3 Finals last year.

2017 was a stellar year for Joy as she skipped the triples and senior fours teams that went on to contest at state level following their success at district and regional play-offs, but the icing on the cake would have to be with the Cabarita 2017 Grade 3 Pennant side that swept all before them, undefeated, to win district, regional and then the State Grade 3 flag.

Joy has also been an accredited coach as well as an official measurer for the past 30 years.

This lady has been a wonderful ambassador, not only for the game of bowls, but also for her club and the district and will be sorely missed by all. Best wishes for a happy and healthy continued retirement go to Joy and Graham for the years to come.

See you on the greens. Good bowling everyone.

Taj Burrow Takes Out 21st Single Fin Classic IN MARGINAL conditions, bordering barely surfable, Western Australian former World Tour Surfer, Taj Burrow took out the 21st Burleigh Boardriders Single Fin Classic. A crowd of more than 6000 people watched competitors in the Open, Women’s, and Junior Divisions negotiate the dreaded rocks of Burleigh Point, showing incredible skills in tiny waves.

Burrow opened his account with one of the best waves of the event scoring a perfect 10-point ride from the judges, wrapping up the victory with his second and only other ride late in the 20 minute final.

“To win this event today is unreal. I had such a good time, there were no waves and it was great!” said an ecstatic Burrow.

“I want to come back and surf it with real waves, then it will be the best event I have ever surfed.

“I love coming to Burleigh Heads and catching up with all my mates.”

Burrow feeling at home at the event said Burleigh is one of the best spots in the world: “to sit on there taking it in with my mates, is the best thing ever”.

Burrow won from former World Tour Surfer Mitch Crews in second and Sunshine Coast surfer, Jack Lewis taking 3rd place.

It was Western Australian domination with renowned Women’s big wave surfer Felicity Palmenteer winning the Women’s Division from fellow World Tour surfer Isobella Nichols. Palmenteer recently relocated to the Gold Coast from Western Australia, and is a member of the Burleigh Boardriders, stoked to win at her new home.

The Junior Division was won by last years winner, and Burleigh Boardrider, Maddy Job, the current Burleigh Boardriders Club Champion who gave a dominant display of single fin surfing over his rivals to win the title for the second year in a row.

Commentator and Burleigh stalwart, Dwayne Harris won the Vonu Lager award for the best traditional single fin surfer.

Harris won a Wayne Dean Neal Purchase Junior shaped 7’3 single fin and a years supply of Vonu Lager.

Once again the Burleigh Boardriders Single Fin Festival has lived up to its reputation of the best weekend of the year, with fun, great surfing, good times, and live music. Overall an awesome community event.

The four event series will see surfers from all over the world concerting on the Tweed Coast, and there should be some great surfing action around the traps.

Local surfers in both the men’s and women’s divisions will be looking to pick up some vital WSL ratings points during the series, to build higher seeds to tackle the higher rated contests later in the year. There will be plenty of local talent on show to take on the travelling internationals, and I will update you with more news on the series next week.

Following two races so far this season, first place is shared by three boats, “Epic” (Peter Skinner, James Nickolas, and Caspian Nicholas), “Odin” (Daniel Sieders, Adrian Dokter and Tamara Sheppard) and “Minnow” (Bill Fenelon, Max Hennessey and Jessie Normand).

Only one point behind in second place is “Keenas” (Mark Reynolds, Craig Foley and Taj Krasna), three points behind Keenas in third position, Swell Lady, (Monique Smith, Deborah Flannery and Matt Andrews) equal fourth but 10 points back with two did not finish is Capers and Melita.

It will be impossible to pick a winner.

This Sunday’s race will feature the return of Monique Smith’s legend sheet hand, Matt Andrews, and we can expect to see fireworks on board Swell Lady, as Monique will try to salvage her season.

Odin has sailed well this season and will be very fast and hard to beat in the fresh breeze, Keenas has been very fast in all races and got the bullet in race two, Peggy will be making its first appearance and we expect it will be very competitive, there’s a rumor they have a new “big” kite.

Previous Class Champion Kevin Burke will be also in the hunt and doing his best to put points on the board.

Boats are expecting a stiff breeze of between 15 and 20 knots, (36km/h) shifting from NNW to SE during the race.

At start time the tide will be in full ebb flow and sailors will hope the wind stays in the north.

Junior Sailing will go ahead this Sunday, starting at 9am at Fingal Head.

The Tweed Valley Sailing Club always welcomes new members, even if you have never sailed before.

We have many opportunities for people to become involved, from crewing on racing boats, driving the rescue boat, or helping out with time keeping.

It’s a very pleasant way to spend Sunday by the River at Fingal and spectators are very welcome.

Any enquiries please phone club commodore Bill Fenelon on 0411 123 405.

PUTTING Most people have expectations that are far too high when it comes to putting.

If you were to look at the statistics from the PGA tour you will see that a tour player averages 5 out of 10 putts from 8 feet.

And from 30 feet they average 2.0 putts.

• Before you tee off in an event you could putt to a spot on the green instead of the hole.

• Just putt until you can achieve a consistent pace.

• You should find 30 minutes at least twice a week to go and work on your putting speeds, uphill, downhill and across slopes from varying distances.

• Measure using your putter-place 10 coins around the hole in a circle, then start 20 feet from the hole and putt 10 balls until you can keep all 10 inside the circle, then move back to 30 feet and hit putts until you can putt at least 9/10 inside the circle and so on.
