Home services crisis after switch to private providers Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au THOUSANDS of elderly Mornington Peninsula residents caught in the middle of the former Morrison Government’s decision to move home care servicing to private providers have been left without vital support. While the move to private providers is a result of recommendations outlined in the Aged Care Royal Commission Final Report, critics say it’s implementation without clear advice, time frames or options has left some recipients fearful and without any service at all. On the eve of the 1 July transition to private providers, many of the estimated 4000 home care recipients were still confused about what was happening and had still not received any contact from one of the designated private providers to alert them to when services would start. The shire announced in May that the federal government had appointed two new providers (Mecwacare and Bolton Clarke - formerly the Royal District Nursing Service) to deliver in-home care to peninsula residents under the Commonwealth Home Support Program. Marj Thomas said her 94-year-old mother Joyce, who lives alone in Rosebud, was “distressed” and confused about what was happening, and had not been able to understand the paperwork or find out when she would next get help. “She was due for an assistant to help her shower on Friday, but the service we had has finished and nobody turned up to help mum so we don’t know what’s happening,” she said. “I go down as often as I can but I can’t be there all the time and mum won’t leave her home, not should she be forced to. “I think it’s pretty disgusting, we are lucky and can take care of most of mum’s needs, but there will be families in a very difficult position and lots of elderly people left not knowing what’s going on. “I’m worried there are people who could actually die because of not getting the help they need, or end up being forced into nursing homes, which is not what they want.” Ms Thomas said she finally got to speak with someone at Mecwacare late on Friday, who said they were “hoping” to have someone phone this week to arrange services for the following week.
The shire’s manager Community Services, Jo Bradshaw, said it had been assured by both Mecwacare and Bolton Clarke that all essential services would continue to be delivered from Friday 1 June. “We did offer to keep a small number of staff available to assist with the post-transition period however this was declined by the federal government’s Commonwealth Home Support Program,” Bradshaw said. However, Ms Thomas said her mother’s lack of shower assistance on Friday showed the system was not working. Balnarring resident and home care recipient Barb Rimington said her many phone calls and letters to the shire’s CEO John Baker had gone unanswered, and there didn’t seem to be any “interim transition planning”. “My details have apparently been passed on to a nominated private provider, have tried to ring it on several occasions: no answer,” Ms Rimington said. “It takes no stretch of the imagination to wonder how many aged and incapacitated people across the peninsula have been left to rot. How many will be found dead?” On the day before the changeover, Bolton Clarke’s At Home Support Operational Performance, Sharon Kehoe, said the “team” was working hard in preparation for the transition of services the next day. “With a large number of clients involved, we are still receiving information from the council. Once their information is received, we are working to quickly be in touch with people to schedule services and understand individual needs,” Kehoe said. “We apologise for any disruption during this time as we prioritise essential care services.” The News understands staffing difficulties could be adding to the delays. Kehoe said Bolton Clarke was continuing “to grow our dedicated team by actively recruiting across the region and welcome applications from local people who are interested in employment opportunities”. She urged clients who had questions or who had not yet heard from their new provider to phone on 1300 221 122. The federal government and Mecwacare did not respond to media requests before deadline.
Deanna’s determination: Being diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis at 17, Deanna Renee has faced many challenges. She has refused to be held back by the disease and now intends to trek 100 kilometres to raise funds for MS research. See story on Page 5. Picture: Supplied

Young Victorian award for eco visionary Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au MORNINGTON Peninsula resident and co-founder of a wrap that is compostable and eco-friendly, Julia Kay, has been named Young Victorian of the Year by the Victoria Day Council. From a young age Kay, a former architect, had a knack for design, and wanted to have an impact on the environment. That led her to a career in architecture, which in turn has taken her around the world and led to her designing everything from galleries to schools. Kay said working in the construction industry was a real “eye opener” for her as she saw copious amounts of waste with no clear solution in sight. For someone who grew up caring deeply for the landscape around her, this was disturbing. She just couldn’t believe the amount of waste the everyday business was churning through. It didn’t take much time for Kay to discover that Australians send 150,000 tonnes of stretch wrap to landfills every year. With all of this in mind, in 2019, Kay co-founded Great Wrap with her husband Jordy, and today the business is providing the first step to stopping the waste. Today Great Wrap manufactures stretch wrap from food waste for homes and businesses at their local factories on the Mornington Peninsula and Tullamarine. Kay said the next decade would be
vastly different to the previous and it will be completely driven by the impact businesses have on the planet and generations to come. “We saw a materials revolution happening around us. Everything was changing rapidly; energy, transport, and agriculture, yet plastic stayed the same.,” she said. “We knew the technology existed to put an end to plastic waste but there weren’t any products available on the market for us to use. “That’s when Great Wrap was born. We invented the products we knew the world was missing so we can dump plastic once and for all. We are driven by impact, fuelled by demand, and have a 10-year vision for a world where plastic doesn’t exist.” The Victoria Day Awards celebrate Victoria’s Foundation at the time of separation from New South Wales on the 1 July 1851.

New CFA vehicle honours service Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au THE peninsula group of brigades has received a new addition to the fleet and named in honour of a former group communications officer. The new $85,000 Ford Ranger 4X4 was purchased via the Volunteer Emergency Services Equipment Program and replaced a seven-year-old model the group previously used. Peninsula group contributed an additional $29,000, supplementing the VESEP grant. Group officer Tim Desmond said the benefit of the new FCV was the improved layout and enhanced safety features. “The new standard build enables members to go between different vehicles quickly, as they all have a similar set up now,” he said. “The design makes it easier for members performing roles like strike team leader or sector commander as they often need to drive different vehicles, especially when on deployment. “The new vehicle also has more capacity to be used as a control point for localised incidents. “It has whiteboard facilities, drawers from rear, and slide outs from the sides which provide a working space to be used to assist the incident controller.” Peninsula Group’s previous five vehicles have been bought with group funds or generous community donations, and this is the first time the VESEP program has been utilised to fund a vehicle.

“Our group doesn’t have the capacity to fundraise the same way our brigades do,” Desmond said. “Peninsula Group encompasses nine brigades, if we were to fundraise within our response area, it would heavily impact the local brigades’ fundraising capabilities. “That’s the beauty of VESEP; brigades and groups can apply for grants to fund vehicles or projects, without having to rely on fundraising or funding the purchase entirely from brigade/group funds. “The VESEP program is just fantastic, I strongly encourage everyone to apply.” The recent handover event was also an opportunity to honour former Group Communications Officer, Dawn Hind. Dawn was present for what she thought was a simple vehicle handover and said she was dumbfounded
and quite shocked when the FCV, which was named in her honour., was unveiled. “I consider myself an equal, everyone deserves this honour. I was just assisting the workers; they were the ones out there doing all the work,” she said. A member of Rye Fire Brigade since 1968, Hind held the group communications officer role with Peninsula Group for almost 20 years, from 1984 through to 2003. “The radio was on 24/7 in my home. It was just part of my life, like many other women at the time,” Dawn said. “I did all my work from the kitchen, except on the big jobs when I would go into the group headquarters. “During those years, I had teenage children at home; other women had much smaller children though, which made it difficult for them.

Mia has model career in mind
MARTHA Cove resident Mia Pollock is set to compete in the national finals of the Top Model Australia Model Search competition on 10 July. The competition travels Australia to find fresh faces in modelling, culminating in a runway event, featuring contestants from all over Australia aspiring to launch their careers as an international model. The winner will win the trip of a lifetime to compete in London on
the international stage, and walk in London Fashion Week in September, 2022. Pollock started modelling in 2018, partaking in a competition for Country Girl Management, finishing as a finalist and being signed by agents Giant Jnr. While being a part of the Giant Jnr team she has modelled for brands like Country Road, Just Jeans, Bardot Junior, Decjuba Kids,Lovisa, Sheet
Society and All Kinds. In 2020 she competed in Bali for ASOTY (Australian Supermodel Of The Year) where she won Teen Diamond Super Model of the Year. This year, Top Model Australia has partnered with Bully Zero, and all contestants partake in workshops to help them become ambassadors within their schools and community groups for the cause.
Help Deanna on her way AT just 17, in the middle of her VCE exams, Rosebud resident Deanna Renee was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. Suddenly her whole world looked vastly different. “I literally woke up one day and could barely see, my vision loss was so bad it was just like looking through a tiny black dot” she said. Renee’s ophthalmologist diagnosed Optic Neuritis, which was a red flag for Multiple Sclerosis, and after an MRI discovered lesions on her brain, the diagnosis was confirmed. It would have been very easy to give up dreaming about the future, but Renee refused to give in to the negative stereotypes that confronted her. “There was a lot of stigmatising, there still is, but it is just because people don’t know much about MS, and really, everyone has a different experience,” she said. “There still can be a lot of negative reinforcement, like people might say, ‘oh, you won’t be able to finish your studies’, or ‘you won’t be able to do….” Thankfully, Renee’s eyesight returned and rather than give in the diagnosis completely, she finished her VCE and went on to complete a Bachelors Degree in Social Sciences, a Masters of Science in Medicine and finishing in the top percentile of her class, and has almost finished her Masters in Social Work. In between she has backpacked around south-east Asia solo for four weeks, and spent six weeks backpacking in India. Despite admitting to bouts of selfdoubt and pity, Renee has pretty much achieved all her goals so far. The 32-year-old’s current challenge
is to raise the profile of MS, and in particular the need for younger people with MS to be able to connect with each other as peer support. She says while services such as MS Australia has been wonderfully supportive, and has helped by providing advice on treatments and support, she would have liked to have mixed with more MS sufferers her own age when she was dealing with the diagnosis. “There is support out there, and peer groups, but what I’d really like to see is more peer support for people my age,” she said. “I was diagnosed at 17 and am in my 30s now, and have found there to be a lack of representation for younger people specially to connect with,” she said. “For me, my first representation of those with MS were older people with heavy disability, while there is nothing wrong with that, I found it very confronting at the time and did not seek any further support in my 20s. “I am very able bodied and my MS is completely invisible, but the message I was given at an early age was my MS would limit me from achieving my future aspirations.” In October Renee will undertake the 100km Tuscany trail to raise vital funds for MS research. Thursday 7 July marks 100 days to the trip. Local Rosebud restaurant The Milbri has pledged to donate to the cause $1 from every coffee sale on a single Saturday, with Dromana restaurant La Onda Latin Mex pledging $5 per burrito on a date to be announced.

Raising the roof to raise funds for Ukrainian refugees
Stormwater scheme launches MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire’s new ‘stormwater quality in-lieu contribution scheme was launched on Friday 1 July and is applicable to all new eligible planning applications on the Mornington Peninsula.

Stormwater quality in-lieu contribution scheme
A SINGING group that wanted to help Ukrainian refugees has raised $1000 by entertaining audiences with their music. Musical director of the Harmony Singers, John Rogers, said he was watching the news and was “appalled” by the Russian invasion of the Ukraine. “I was challenged by the thought, ‘What can I do in this situation?’ and found an answer to my question some time later when I came across a YouTube of the famous choral composer John Rutter,” Rogers said. “John Rutter had been asking himself the same question, ‘what can I do?’. And, as a talented composer, he decided to write a piece of music which he entitled ‘A Ukrainian Prayer’. “I thought, ‘What can I do? I conduct a community choir, could we put on a concert to raise awareness and funds for Ukrainian refugees?,’ ” Mr Rogers said. “And so, the concert was planned and an audience invited. To my delight we were able to raise awareness and a thousand dollars which has been donated to Caritas, a Catholic Church charity, working on the ground with Ukrainian refugees.”

True passion the source of author inspiration MOUNT Eliza author Gaby Chase (right) has written a coming-of-age story that has an unusual focus on cooking and ambition, which helps it resonate with both the target audience of young readers, as well as their parents. Chase says the story, Joe Turns Pro, is about the importance of finding your true passion. “I love the story of Billy Elliott and I wanted to write an equally inspiring story about an average kid, one with no obvious talent, and how they go about finding something they’re good at and find that they love – discovering their passion,” she said. “In my experience, it involves a lot of trial and error, mainly error, until maybe something sticks.” Chase says the narrative also quietly explores unhealthy relationships with food and generational obesity. “Gradually, Joe takes his family on his food journey with him and through it they find a healthier relationship with each other,” she said. First and foremost, Joe Turns Pro, is a feel-good story that kids can enjoy and relate to, with an underlying message that while you may not initially know what you want, if you give it a go and muddle around long enough eventually you find the things you love. Chase says some kids are born with clear talents, which are then nurtured by those supportive people around them. But she wanted to write about the young people who take a little longer to work out their strengths and demonstrate their talents? “What about normal kids who don’t have all the right supports,” she said. Joe Turns Pro is for those kids who are trying to find their moment to shine. Joe Turns Pro started out as a screenplay that won the prestigious Final Break Family Category in 2020. This was the biggest year of the competition with 13,000 entries, which made the win even more special. Chase writes screenplays and novels for adults and older children.
“Writing novels provides a freedom to explore the character’s inner workings. I’ve always loved writing, but when I decided to have a red hot go at it, like Joe I quickly found out it takes practice,” Chase said. “Lots of practice. But after a couple of books, I definitely feel I am finding my feet.” Joe Turns Pro follows Joe who is looking for ways to make fast money so he can attend a tenpin bowling tournament. The high school cooking competition has a cash prize of $5000, and although never having cooked before, he gives it a go. With the help of a teacher, Joe finds that he’s actually quite good at cooking and, more importantly, he loves everything about it. Gradually, Joe takes his family on his food journey with him and through it they find a healthier relationship with each other. First and foremost, Joe Turns Pro, has the underlying message of ‘give it a go’ and if you muddle around long enough eventually you find the things you love.

Call for help after donation drop RSPCA op shops are appealing for more donations to help vulnerable people keep warm through winter, and to help animals in need. Liz Irvine, RSPCA Victoria’s op shop network supervisor, said RSPCA Victoria’s op shops relied on donations and community support to continue their critical work of caring for animals. “To support us in our work we’re calling on the local community in Mornington and surrounds to consider clearing out unused items this winter and donating them to the RSPCA op shop,” Irvine said.
“We have recently experienced a significant drop in the donation of goods across the state, including in Mornington. While we don’t know exactly why we’ve seen this decrease, we suspect this is due to winter, when people are generally less active and donations decrease. “Winter is a busy time for RSPCA Victoria, with more than 3200 animals expected to come through our doors. Donating and shopping at the RSPCA op shop is a fantastic way to support animals in need while grabbing a bargain.” The RSPCA has op shops in Mornington, Frankston and Chelsea.

THE reduced speed limit on the Nepean Highway in Frankston has drawn fury from motorists. Multiple residents have contacted The News after receiving fines for speeding through the intersection of Nepean Highway and Davey Street in Frankston. They complained that the new 40kmph speed limit is poorly signed. The speed limit on the Nepean Highway between Fletcher Road and Plowman Place was reduced to 40kmph in October 2021. Some of the new speed limit signs were replaced just one month later to make them more visible. A speed camera on Davey Street has been enforcing the new limit since April of this year. One of the key reasons for changing the speed limit was to make outdoor dining safer. A VicRoads document released in June last year read “in the five years leading up to 30 June 2019, there were 30 reported crashes along this shopping strip, with 15 crashes resulting in serious injuries and one crash tragically resulting in a fatality. By installing new safety features on Nepean Highway in Frankston, we can improve pedestrian safety, prevent serious crashes from happening or reduce the severity of crashes when they’re unavoidable.” The project document also read that six electronic signs warning motorists of the speed limit would be installed. The Department of Transport has installed those signs, but they have not yet been turned on. They are expected to be operational in the next few weeks. Ian Robins, a retired engineer who uses the road,
says that an investigation must be commissioned to look into the installation of the speed limit signs. “Many submissions have been lodged with the Road Safety Camera Commissioner, but the investigation being called for is not about camera operations. It is estimated at least 18,000 infringements were recorded at the Davey Street cameras in May, alone,” Robins said. “There are clear indicators a low level of awareness of the change to 40 kmph is the key issue because the signage is not fit for purpose on a highly trafficked divided arterial road at the edge of a commercial zone. If 40 kmph limits are introduced on other divided arterial roads with the same minimum level of signage, a similar outcome will result.” Frankston Council CEO Phil Cantillon said that he is aware that motorists are having issues with the new speed limit. “Council has been working cooperatively with the Department of Transport to highlight its concerns and advocate for temporary electronic message boards to be installed pending the permanent signage being switched on, as well as writing to the Office of the Road Safety Camera Commission for its further consideration of the matter,” he said. “In this particular situation, the Nepean Highway is a state controlled DOT road and the introduction of the 40km zone is part of a state-wide DOT initiative to improve the safety of shopping strips. Frankston City Council welcomes the lowered speed zone introduced on this section of Nepean Highway in late 2021 recognising how busy it is with cars and pedestrians associated with the retail and restaurant activity, and for those walking to the waterfront and for commuters.”

QUEEN’S BIRTHDAY HONOURS
With Liz Bell
OAM for ‘Coodabeens’ Bill Baxter EVEN for people who only know very little about football, the name Billy Baxter rings of luminary fame, like the pseudonym or alliterative moniker of a screen star or wanna-be pop star. For those who don’t know, that name is attached to one of Australia’s most ‘under-the-radar’ and down-to-earth superstars of the entertainment sector, who says he was “shocked”, “humbled” and “grateful” for the recent honour of an Order of Australia Medal. The award is not just for Baxter’s 42 years of non-stop involvement in the music industry as performer and broadcaster, but also as author and actor, and for his part as a team player in that loveable, long-running, radio footy program The Coodabeen Champions, alongside Jeff Richardson, Ian Cover, Jeff “Torch” McGee, Simon Whelan, Andy Bellairs and Greg Champion, all of who made the Queen’s Birthday OAM list for 2022. Baxter was initially so surprised about his Order of Australia Medal for services to the performing arts and to radio, he figured it must be “a prank”. “It was almost like something we could have pranked on the Coodabeens, so I just wasn’t sure at first when I received the letter, then I realised it was genuine and I was quite humbled,” he said. Of course, the ever-modest Baxter has accepted the compliment with genuine pride, as he does when I tell him the ‘Coodabeens’ have legendary status in my world, and the worlds of hundreds of thousands of listeners who have grown up with them.

Baxter says it delights him that the Coodabeens have at least three generations of audience, even after moving from their long-time home of the ABC to their new “but basically the same” gig at ACE Radio’s 3MP. Baxter says the move gives the AFL radio show a wider reach in regional Victoria, while still keeping the loyal Coodabeen fans listening and laughing. “We have little kids who listen because their dad or mum listens, and they listen because their mum or dad listened, so there are generations of families who know the Coodabeens and have welcomed us into their homes,” he said. “That’s pretty special.” Baxter’s links to broadcasting spans four decades. As part of The Coodabeen Champions – he has been on air since 1981 when the show kicked off on community station 3RRR before moving to the ABC for the next 27 years. Baxter has also co-presented on 774 ABC, ABC Victoria and Tasmania (19881995), co-presented on 3AW (19952003), and was a founding presenter of 102.7 3RRR (1981-1988). In 2003, he was inducted into the MCG Hall of Fame, which cemented his position among Australia’s football ‘royalty’. But long before he gained fame from a footy show that is like no other, Baxter had earned his performance badge as a musician. Baxter’s name was best known in the 80s and 90s, which were the halcyon eras of live music and international recognition of Australian rock ‘n roll. He has been lead vocalist of Ghetto

Blasters, Big Fans of Jesus, the Hollow Men, and also worked as a solo artist in the early 90s. If you watch it closely, you might even notice Baxter as the part of the rock group The Cicadas, in the cult comedy Spotswood, in 1991. Baxter has also penned a few books, including Half a Chicken and Chips (2021), Coodabeen Champions: 40 Footy Seasons (2020), The Coodabeen Champions Take a Good Hard Look at Australia (1992), The Coodabeen Champions Big Book of Things (1992) and The Coodabeen Champions Big Bumper Footy Book (1990) Despite his personal successes and accolades, Baxter is proudest of the mentorship and encouragement he and his fellow musicians have provided for younger musicians coming up through the ranks, particularly in the latter part of the 80s and 90s when every second teenager had a garage band and many morphed into headline acts. Although his participation in the music industry today involves listening more than playing, he fulfils that mentoring passion these days by jamming with his 17-year-old son Gulliver. “Sometime we just sit in the bungalow and play guitar, and it’s great, I love it,” he said. “At 17 I didn’t know what I wanted to do with my life, but now I look back and am proud of having been part of the Australian music scene since the 80s, and I love seeing young artists have a go. “But receiving an OAM for something I love was the furthest thing from my mind.”

Overcome the challenge of stairs by future-proofing your home STAIRS are the most common place for accidents to occur in the home and falls from stairs can have serious consequences. Faced with this challenge, many people feel their only choice is to move to a single-level home. If you are going to enjoy your retirement, then you need to address the issue of the stairs; whether it is carrying groceries or wood upstairs, struggling to walk down them yourself, or whether friends and family find them so hard to navigate that they no longer visit. However when you go to look for single-storey homes, you may find that they are rare or expensive or just do not have the view. And besides, why lose all that money moving if you can stay safely in your home? Australian RESiLIFT® inventor, Peter van Emmerik, conceived the first ‘through-floor’ residential lift because he wanted to empower people to stay in their home as they aged. He wanted to design a lift that was able to be installed into existing homes at an affordable price. Peter’s award-winning lift has been replicated across the globe. His ground-breaking shaftless design was patented and has been the inspiration for many residential elevators. “I designed this lift so people could stay safely in the home they love,” says Peter. “It saves time, effort and money that would otherwise be wasted moving home. It also removes the emotional anguish of being uprooted from your family home.” Without a doubt, installing a RESiLIFT® enables people to stay in their two storey or split-level home without the limitations and dangers of stairs.
Pictured: Margot Ling installed a RESiLIFT a few years ago so she could stay in her two-storey home. easily installed in new builds. Many people on the Peninsular install the RESiLIFT® in their holiday houses as they prepare for their sea change. Despite its very small footprint, RESiLIFT® still fits two people. There are three different sizes available, some models can accommodate walkers and even wheelchairs.
“It’s such a relief! Now I know we can stay in our home! We love it!” says Margot Ling who installed a RESiLIFT® a few years ago. She said, “We love the area, we love living here, why would we move?!” RESiLIFT® is not only an affordable solution, it’s a smart choice. The RESiLIFT® can be retrofitted into existing homes with minimal hassle. It can also be
RESiLIFT® has truly been a ‘life-saver’ in many people’s homes. With the potential upheaval of an unexpected diagnosis, injury or surgery, it’s good to know that at least the challenge of stairs is removed. One customer initially installed the lift for when their elderly parent visited, but it later helped when their grandchild developed mobility issues. For many customers who are still agile and mobile, the lift may just be
used for carrying loads of washing, suitcases or groceries. This is much safer than carrying these items on the stairs and will help them stay fit enough to enjoy the rest of their retirement. Installing a residential lift in your home is enables you to stay in the home your love. For more information, videos and testimonials visit www.resilift.com.au.

Seniors Loving Life!
Enjoy the magic of the arts OSCAR Wilde once said “I regard the theatre as the greatest of all art forms, the most immediate way in which a human being can share with another the sense of what it means to be a human being.” To share in a live communal experience is a very powerful thing. Each person experiences a play individually, but reacts as a group. While everyone in the audience is unique, they share a common bond in their love of the arts. It’s uplifting to be surrounded by like-minded people and experience that sense of community. As some people get older, their social sphere shrinks through loss or other life changes. Seniors can become quite isolated leading to loneliness, depression and anxiety. The arts can act as an antidote by offering insight, entertainment, stress relief, upliftment, emotional and intellectual engagement as well as community. From its inception, Frankston Arts Centre, has been a leader in offering inclusive programming that brings the joy of theatre, music and art to people of all ages. Their Daytime Theatre and Music program makes theatre accessible to seniors who may prefer not to drive or venture out at night. Even better, these programs are very affordable. A visit to the theatre is an event to look forward to whether it’s a trip out to enjoy a show with friends and
family or a chance to see a beloved play, musical or musical performance. That link to community, like-minded people and the arts has a huge impact on positive mental health. The Mental Health Foundation notes that ‘engaging in arts, social activities and interaction within our communities can help with major challenges such as ageing and loneliness. It can help to boost confidence and make us feel more engaged and resilient. Besides these benefits, art engagement also alleviates anxiety, depression and stress.’ The arts can also be important therapy – stimulating cognitive function in older adults who have dementia or related disorders. It has been well documented that music stimulates memory. Theatre is thought provoking. Evidence shows engagement with the arts has real benefits for both mental and physical well-being. “If you get involved in a play or other forms of the arts, it takes your mind off your anxiety. You get involved in it internally. It’s an escape,” says actress Lorraine Foreman, 93. She adds, “The arts are a shared experience. If you’re at a play or a concert or in an art gallery, you’re experiencing it with others. Being with other people helps with anxiety.” For many, the arts are also a way of connecting across generations. Older and younger people who may not otherwise meet discuss what they
The arts have a huge impact on positive mential health have collectively enjoyed. The arts engage people in the world, help them to escape the everyday and express their thoughts and feelings. They inspire positivity, celebrate life and honour artistic progress.
If lonely or isolated, in need of company or inspiration, a trip to the theatre might be just the solution. You will undoubtedly find yourself moved and uplifted. With the storytelling magic of theatre and/or music, you’ll
be transported to another time, another world or deeply steeped in the present, but when you’re there, you won’t be feeling depressed or anxious. You can share your joy after the show.
Big band tour comes to FAC THE long-awaited national tour of John Morrison’s ‘swing city’ big band has arrived at FAC. Musical Director John Morrison is recognised as one of Australia’s leading jazz drummers, band leaders and educators. This concert spectacular features 15 leading Australian musicians and singers, and showcases the talents of two of Australia’s leading jazz singers; Gregg Arthur and Jackie Cooper.

Enjoyed for over 85 years, these hits are timeless.
John Morrison has delighted audiences for more than 25 years with his humour and dedication to sounds that swing. Equally at home in a small group or big band setting, his musical facility runs the entire spectrum from traditional jazz, swing, bebop, R&B, soul and commercial jazz rock. The Celebration of Swing will be performing at the Frankston Arts Centre Sunday 10th July at 3pm. Bookings 9784 1060.

Rate your hearing at Nepean Hearing FOUR million Australians have a hearing loss. Nepean Hearing is offering free hearing tests and rating your Hearing for Your Age (for the over 40’s). The number of Australians who are hearing impaired is increasing because of • the ageing population - we are living longer • excessive noise - in the workplace and high level music Hearing loss is often described as the ‘invisible disability. People often wait for 5-10 years before they seek help. Hearing loss may also be a contributing factor in the speed of onset of dementia. The degree of loss is also correlated to the risk of Alzheimer’s disease. It is important to know about your hearing. Many people ignore the signs of hearing loss, which include; turning the TV or stereo up so loud that others complain, frequently needing to ask others to repeat themselves, and not being able to hear properly on the telephone. Constant ringing is also another warning sign of hearing loss. As technology advances, many people with hearing loss benefit from hearing aids. These innovations have made a positive difference in the way they can communicate and enjoy their lives. Nepean Hearing is an independently owned clinic and the audiologists are University of Melbourne trained.
Audiologists: Tony Wilms and Sandra Priolo.
For hearing screenings our main office is located at 30 Foot Street, Frankston, phone: 9783 7520 We are also located at: 171 Camms Road, Cranbourne, phone: 5966 1117, and Hastings Community Health 185 High Street Hastings, phone: 97837520. Take advantage of the free hearing test offered by Nepean Hearing to ensure your hearing is at its optimum.

MOVIN’ TO THE COUNTRY
ABC TV, 7.30pm
Possibly every single city slicker in Australia has toyed with the idea of a sea or tree change, but few actually have the gumption to do it. With a second season premiering tonight, this series is sure to fire up that pipe dream again with a fresh haul of savvy entrepreneurs who have begun a new venture in the countryside. In Orbost, Victoria, Craig Quartermaine (pictured) visits a brewery run by a couple who make avant-garde beer under the guidance of Indigenous writer Bruce Pascoe.
SUNDAY
JULIA ZEMIRO’S HOME DELIVERY
ABC TV, 7.40pm
In a perfectly fitting conclusion to this much-loved series, the host herself, Julia Zemiro (pictured above), takes her own personal trip down memory lane. After a decade of hanging out with well-known guests as they share the pivotal places and moments in their lives, this time Zemiro shares her past with viewers. What’s more, she reminisces with four of her friends: Gardening Australia’s Costa Georgiadis, satirist Mark Humphries, comedian Judith Lucy and entertainer Justine Clarke.
SATURDAY
CAPTAIN MARVEL
7MATE, 7.30pm
In addition to being a dynamite Marvel blockbuster full of ’90s nostalgia, the first female-led superhero film to make more than US$1 billion worldwide is also a handy origin story for franchise stalwart Nick Fury (a digitally de-aged Samuel L. Jackson). At its heart is Vers (Brie Larson, pictured), an amnesiac intergalactic warrior plagued by recurring nightmares, who is captured during a mission and crash-lands in 1995 Los Angeles. It’s not long before
The anxiety of witnessing some of the terrible accidents and situations in this series is thankfully tempered by the humanity, kindness and infinite goodwill of the medical professionals who try to take the chaos and uncertainty in their strides. Returning with a third season, Emergency goes behind the scenes at Royal Melbourne Hospital, giving viewers with a steely resolve – or perhaps a penchant for shedding a sympathetic tear – a fascinating insight into how hospital emergency departments operate. Tonight, a young man who is comfortably numb is examined by Dr Emma. Emma West treats patients in Emergency.

Community focus to independent living AT Greenways Village we provide a choice of accommodation to give you an independent lifestyle in a convenient location at an affordable and predictable cost; a community within a community served by loyal and caring staff. Greenways was one of the first villages to be accredited by the Retirement Village Association of Australia, the village meets the prescribed standards in respect of accommodation, village facilities, support and services and most importantly management practices. With the passage of time our housing and lifestyle requirements change – the children leave home and increasingly go interstate or overseas in search of careers; we need less space; a partner may have died; what was once an enjoyable weekend pastime like maintaining the garden, doing some painting around the house or even cleaning the gutters has become a source of stress rather than pleasure; rising home ownership bills such as rates and utilities, concerns over security if we go away and fixed or reducing income change our priorities and make us reassess our needs. For many hundreds of residents, over the last 45 years, Greenways Village has provided a welcome solution and a new lease on life. We do hope we can do the same for you. We encourage all prospective residents to visit other villages. Read their information and understand their particular legal and financial arrangements and, if possible, talk to existing residents about their experiences of village life. That is what we want you to do at Greenways Village – it is a big decision and not one that should be rushed. Greenways enjoys a very strong sense of community and pride in its long history and the lifestyle that has been sustained at the village.
Life feels good “There is just nothing like being surrounded by good people”
Safe, secure and full of the most wonderful people. Staff and residents alike, the people of Greenways Village are caring, supportive, and lifelong friendships ready for the making.
See it for yourself. Come visit, talk to the people who live here. We’re certain you’ll be making new friends in no time.

Finally, relief from your hip pain DOES this describe YOU? • You get hip pain laying on your side in bed, and just can’t get to sleep. • You place a pillow between your legs to help you get to sleep but laying on the painful side is still waking you. • You find yourself standing on one leg with your other hip hanging lower, or you sitting with crossed legs causes the pain • You are a runner worried your hip pain will get worse and stop you from exercising. If so then read on. The pain on the outside of the hip can be due to inflammation of the gluteal tendon, of Gluteus Medius and Minimus, where the gluteal muscles attach. It can also be where a bursa (a fat pad called the trochanteric bursa) can become inflamed. The hip pain may be associated with a stiff back. Physiotherapist Mark Charalambous, says that it is an injury affected by hip weakness and postural habits that place the tendons under stress. It requires a full analysis of the hip and lower limb, looking from the foot to the back biomechanics. It can require massage, and specific strengthening exercises for the gluteal muscles as well as improving core stability to control pelvic movement. In addition to the above solutions, there is a recent healing technology that is making a profound difference to outside of the hip pain sufferers.
Physiotherapist, Mark Charalambous
Practice owner, Paul Rowson says “Shockwave Therapy is often useful, because the gluteal tendons are a connective tissue, not a muscle. It puts a significant shockwave through the tissues you apply it to. It is a pressure wave which brings blood flow to the area. Tendons and connective tissue do not have much blood supply and can take a long time to heal. Shockwave artificially stimulates the healing of the tendon.” Shockwave therapy can also be used on Achilles tendonitis, Plantar Fasciitis, golfer’s and tennis elbow, and rotator cuff tendon problems, and is usually most effective on long term
chronic problems, rather than acute injuries. Shockwave is not the first line of treatment for injured patients. Physiotherapy and graded exercise are more likely in the first instance. But for more stubborn conditions, shockwave has shown good results. “The evidence at the moment suggests between three to five treatments are required, but most people should see an improvement within three sessions. It has a success rate up to 90%” Mark says. The Shockwave therapy is administered for a three-minute period to the affected area during consecutive weekly appointments. “It is a bit of an
uncomfortable sensation” Mark says, “like most physio hands-on treatments, with a little discomfort during the treatment.” Paul says, “After each session, most people get a significant reduction of pain and symptoms. Long term it stimulates healing, short term it reduces pain. The best thing is, the effects are long lasting. It prevents a lot of people having more invasive things like surgery or injections. The treatment is considered safe, but can produce skin reddening or bruising, short term pain, and cannot be used on people taking blood thinning medications or with bleeding disorders. “
“It is important to know that Shockwave has a long-term effect. Most of the time you have good outcomes, without having to have further treatments.” Shockwave is now available in Balnarring. Call the practice now and speak to one of our physios to see if Shockwave suits your condition.

Ethane better used for power than ‘flaring’ into the air The decision by Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors to reject their own officer’s recommendation to support Esso’s request to generate electricity from surplus ethane gas, which could be used to power 35,000 homes, demonstrates their absolute ignorance of reality (“Shire ‘no’ to Esso’s bid for power” The News 28/6/22). The ethane is produced by extracting it from the natural gas (methane) produced in dwindling quantities from the Bass Strait. It used to be utilised to manufacture polymers at Quenos in Altona, but the ethane is now surplus. Despite Cr David Gill suggesting that gas has had its day, gas is a major factor in generating electricity when the wind is not blowing, and the sun goes down that stops the lights going out and trains and trams coming to a halt. The ignorance of the Premier [Daniel Andrews] in banning exploration for and development of gas in Victoria for the past decade, means that Victoria is short of gas and was recently in grave danger of experiencing electricity blackouts, and “gas-outs”. The gas shortage in Victoria is a significant factor in higher electricity prices for Victorians. The gas in Queensland that is exported belongs to Queensland, not Australia and its development at high cost was only due to it being underwritten by overseas buyers, otherwise it would not exist. The pipeline from Queensland is already at capacity in winter, there is no pipeline from Western Australia and an import terminal at Hastings that could have allowed (LNG) gas from elsewhere to be imported was quashed. Utilising ethane to generate electricity, which can help avoid blackouts when the intermittent and unreliable renewables fail to deliver, is far more sensible than flaring it into the atmosphere. Do any of our councillors respond to being called “dill”? Alan Reid, Sorrento
Aircraft protection Having attended the ESSO information night about the plan to use ethane gas to generate electricity I agree with Cr Susan Bissinger that the lesser of two evils is a preferred option (“Shire ‘no’ to Esso’s bid for power” The News 28/6/22). Esso claims natural gas usage will increase to a peak and then taper off. An increase in ethane will be a by-product of that increased gas usage, over which we have no control, and will occur whether there is a generator or not. Cr David Gill states that there will be a six per cent increase in emissions, but does not give any information on what those emissions would be if the ethane is simply flared off. If the current market for ethane has dried up and more ethane is on the way, using the waste for useful work and then “scrubbing” the emissions is surely preferable to just burning to waste. The proposed life of the [power generation] plant is 10 years. The relatively small native vegetation removal is an issue that would be easily mitigated.

Cr Lisa Dixon’s emotive statement about [Tyabb] airfield is misleading. Esso proposes a danger area (not an exclusion zone). The intent here is twofold, it warns operating aircraft of the potential danger, protecting the personnel operating the aircraft which will ultimately assist in protecting asset, Victorian energy supplies and public safety. “We plan to request a vertical limit of 100 metres and a lateral limit of two nautical miles”. The Tyabb airfield is 2.5 nautical miles (4.5km) from the proposed site and aircraft are not allowed to operate under 150 metres (CASA) unless landing or taking off. it seems this area should have no impact on airfield operations. Ample information is available in the EPA licence application. Peter Davis, Tyabb
Help goes missing My in home help announced he was finishing up, as are the rest of the team. I have had no response from letters to Mornington Peninsula Shire CEO, John Baker; there has been no interim transition planning; my details have apparently been passed on to a nominated private provider; I have tried to ring it on several occasions [but] no answer. It takes no stretch of the imagination to wonder how many aged and incapacitated people across the peninsula have been left to rot. I wonder if any will be found dead? Barb Rimington, Balnarring
Services blown The way I see it and agreed to by my ever dwindling list of living pensioner friends, Mornington Peninsula Shire Council has shafted us. The wonderful, odd jobs people and our fortnightly hour from the equally wonderful cleaning people, gone with the wind. [They have been] replaced by people on a lesser salary rate (no disrespect intended) and (for us) a sizeable increase in our hourly costs. Thus, the principle, seemingly common nowadays, being the more they get (council salaries and allowances) the more they want. Nothing (sadly) we can do about it. One day at a time. Cliff Ellen, Rye
Bid for control In my opinion, Mornington Peninsula Shire Council does not currently have these laws is because they are petty (“Laws for everyone and (nearly) everything” The News 21/6/22). It is a case of petty people seeking to control others, such as ratepayers who will have to pay a disproportionate amount in comparison to reasonable laws to administer and enforce the proposed laws. Stephen Jones, Cape Schanck
Voices not for all Voices of Mornington Peninsula criticise Mornington Peninsula Shire Council for not following
THE entrance to the Esso fractionation plant at Long Island Point, Hastings where the state government had been asked to allow ethane gas to be used to generate electricity. Picture: Yanni best practice regarding the removal of $200,000 from its budget for carbon offsets (“Voices questions shire’s transparency” The News 28/6/22). Is this the pot calling the kettle black? Voices of Mornington Peninsula purport to be a community-based organisation. Best practice for a community-based organisation is for the Voices’ board to consult the local community before taking a position on carbon offsets. If Voices had consulted us they would find many people living on the peninsula disagree with carbon offsets. We prefer our rates to be spent on tree planting projects on the peninsula rather than projects in India or China. Ruth Morrison, Mornington
No-credit council I should like to revisit the carbon offsets credits issue which has had Cr Steve Holland summarily dismiss as an “conscience soothing paper shuffling exercise” when retaliating against a perfectly reasonable ratepayer’s criticism (“Carbon credits cash dropped from budget” The News 21/6/22). Cr Holland would be well advised to get out more often and read the financial pages where he might learn that many large scale organisations use this strategy to attack climate change by providing carbon sequestration, especially with the mass planting of trees. I took comfort from the previous experienced and more worldly council adopting this sensible policy and am disappointed that Cr Holland lacks the moral and spinal fortitude of the millennial and Gen X inheritors of our planet. Indeed, he was only one of several incoming councillors that resorted to letterbox exhaustion from daily political propagandised election leaflets, questionnaires and newsletters espousing their environmental responsibility. Judging by the repetition of the non-recyclable paper and paid for marketing services expended to buy their three ward positions, the Briars Ward councillors would have spent close to that $200,000, making this whole issue a nonsense.
Self-seeking, time wasting and an inability to tackle major issues such as the lack of social housing, transport and disability and aged care problems, marks this discredited and untrustworthy current council. The sooner they go the better because they aren’t getting a second chance to con the electors. Ian Morrison, Mount Eliza
Political promises Apparently, Liberal Party supporters believe that if they spruik garbage long enough people will accept it as truth (“Tunnel vision” Letters 21/6/22). There was never any state money set aside for the Jetty Road, Rosebud overpass; it was federal money “promised “ by [Flinders MP] Gregory Hunt to secure Flinders for the LNP. The amount was never a realistic figure. To get the project up and running, we were looking at hundreds of millions of bucks, not the petty amount offered up by Hunt. I’m sure [Nepean Labor MP] Chris Brayne has many future projects simmering on the back burner. We’ve received funding for school renovations, a new bus timetable including an express bus service to Frankston. Previous LNP state members gave us nothing. John Cain, McCrae
Homeless move on Once upon a time three pigs decided to make a sea change to the Mornington Peninsula. Unfortunately, they were constantly harassed and became homeless. They had nowhere to go because suitable housing had not been built in Capel Sound. They reached out to others who were welcome in the shire, “cats ,dogs, horses, donkeys, sheep, goats, llamas, poultry, fowl and cattle”. The pigs and their rooster friends were told they were not allowed to reside in the shire. With mental health issues they eventually moved to Castlemaine. The end. Judi A Loughridge, Rosebud
100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...
Frankston Football Club hold a successful fair Compiled by Cameron McCullough THE Frankston Football Club has a big asset in the enthusiasm and energy of its lady supporters. About a fortnight ago the club committee invited the ladies to meet and discuss the best means for raising money for the club funds. As the outcome of that meeting a jumble fair was held on Friday and Saturday nights last in the Masonic Hall, in Young street, under the direction of Miss D. Gregory, president of the bazaar committee and Mr. J. Daly, who undertook to carry out the secretarial duties. The result was wonderfully successful, no less a sum than. £73 being taken. Friday night was wet, and people could not be expected to leave their homes, but on Saturday evening the spacious hall was crowded and the utmost enthusiasm prevailed. The opening ceremony was performed by W. O’Grady, who in years gone by was a leading spirit in Frankston sporting institutions, and practically carried many of the clubs on his back. Mr. H. J. McCulloch, president of the Frankston Football Club, in introducing Mr. O’Grady, referred to this fact, and the veteran “sport” was accorded an enthusiastic reception. The ladies are to be congratulated on the splendid show made in the hall, the building lending itself admirably to this form of function. *** This week Cr Mason, secretary of the shire council committee appointed to deal with High School matters,
received a communication from the Education Department stating that the consent in writing of the Frankston cricket club should be forwarded to the Lands Department, agreeing to the transfer, to the Education Department, of the area known as the old cricket reserve, for High School purposes. This letter was read at yesterday’s council meeting, together with a communication which Cr Mason had forwarded to the president of the cricket club requesting him to convene a meeting of the members of his club and provide the written consent asked for by the Lands Department. Cr Mason said he had been assured that the cricket club would meet next week, the date of meeting to be advertised in this week’s “Standard.” Cr Gray said he would be given credit for sincerely desiring to see a High School established in Frankston. At the same time he considered that the general public, as well as the cricket club should be consulted also. As the chairman of the previous public meeting he had urged the people to make this ground available under certain conditions, and they had consented. Those conditions had now been varied, and the people should be again consulted. In spite of the talk going around he believed that a overwhelming majority of the people would be in favor of the ground being given to the Education Department on the terms now laid down. Cr Mason said the people would have been consulted had time permitted, but it was necessary that the
council’s decision as to the land should be in the hands of the Department not later than the 30th June. Cr Gray – I am not moving a motion of censure. Cr Mason formally moved that the action of the council’s High School committee in agreeing to transfer the old cricket ground site to the Education Department for High School purposes, conditionally that should the area at any time be abandoned for educational purposes, the land should again revert to the public. Cr Unthank seconded. Cr Gray had no objection to the motion provided a public meeting was called to put the matter before the public. He was prepared to do the best that was in him to get the public to endorse the council’s action. The motion was carried, all the councillors voting in favor, with the exception of Cr Oates, who adhered to his contention that the public should be consulted first. Cr Gray then moved and Cr Mason seconded, that the president of the shire convene a public meeting to endorse the council’s action. Carried. Cr Oates spoke of the splendid work done by Cr Mason in connection with the High School movement, and moved that a minute be placed on the book in appreciation. Seconded by Cr. Armstrong and carried by acclamation. On the motion of Cr Gray a similar vote was accorded the president of the Flinders shire. ***
VERY few supporters of the Frankston Football Club have as fine a record as Miss Dolly Gregory, whose loyalty to the club has been manifested in so many ways. It is no exaggeration to say that, amongst lady supporters, Miss Gregory’s services in the interests of local football has no parallel on the Peninsula. She has been the sort of worker every club would like, but seldom gets. That these fine services have been appreciated is manifest by the Life Membership conferred upon her by the Frankston Football Club some time ago and the valedictory accorded her by the townspeople and sporting fraternity on Wednesday night. That the future may be bright for Miss Gregory is the sincere wish of all who know and appreciate what she has done for the. Frankston Football Club. *** FRANKSTON POLICE COURT MONDAY, 26th June, before Mr. Knight, P.M:, and Messrs. C. G. V. Williams, C. Grant, W. Armstrong and P. Wheeler. Js.P. A man named Alfred Healey was charged with assaulting Archie McKinnon, at the Prince of Wales Hotel, on Sunday, 18th June. The evidence by complainant was that defendant, after representing himself as a bona fide traveller, was served with drink. He suddenly turned on McKinnon, and using obscene language, struck him. It took five men to remove defendant from the bar. Alan McKenzie, barman, gave cor-
roborative evidence. Constable Jewell deposed to arresting defendant at the Frankston railway station, where McKinnon gave him in charge. Defendant said on arrival at Frankston on the day in question he had a couple of drinks at each of the three hotels. He had no recollection of striking McKinnon or creating a disturbance. Defendant was fined £1 or 7 days. Monday, 3rd July, before Messrs. C. Grant (chairman), and P. Wheeler, Js.P. Two young men were charged with stealing money from the residence of Mr. Finch at Seaford. After hearing the evidence one of the accused was discharged; the other was sentenced to 14 days’ imprisonment. *** MR J. L. Pratt, who has been spending a short holiday in the Bendigo and Macedon districts returned to Frankston on Tuesday last. *** LAST week Mrs V. Wells, of Frankston received the sad news of the death of her father, Mr H. Cheyne, at the age of 75 years. *** MR Melvin Prosser, while hand shuting at the Frankston railway station this morning was crushed between the the buffers of two trucks, and badly injured. He was removed to Dr. Maxwell’s private hospital. *** From the pages of the Frankston and Somerville Standard, 7 July 1922

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES
A Farewell To (Bending) Arms By Stuart McCullough LOOKING back, I failed. Failure, it must be said, is something of a broad proposition; on the one hand you can just fall short and comfort yourself that you’ll do better next time, or; you can go so spectacularly wide of the mark that your failure is an achievement of itself. If that all sounds confusing, think of it in ‘Birdman Rally’ terms. Some entrants in the Birdman Rally soar majestically and when they fall, we’re inevitably disappointed. We are poisoned by a sense of a potential that’s not been realized. Other contestants fall off the platform into the river and never stood a chance and we cheer. I was the latter. I speak, of course, of alcohol. If I’m being completely honest, I was never any good at it. Two years ago, as the pandemic came down with all the subtlety of a lead balloon, I gave it up. There was, at the time, something of an extended social license to get stuck into the liquor to cope with such perverse and unusual circumstances. While I realize that ‘quarantinis’ were a comfort to some, I went the other way. It may have been my rebellious streak kicking in. It was, I think, something I could control at a time when everything else seemed out of control. In the movies, such things only happen when the protagonist not so much hits rock bottom as crashes straight through it, before plunging into the depths of hell and reluctantly deciding to change their ways. It was different for me. Instead of reaching rock bottom, I kind of lost interest. Two years later, I think I’m ready to accept that my days of drinking alcohol are behind me. As such, I must now come to terms with the fact that there are certain things I’ll never achieve. I longed to understand spirits. Whiskey, gin and vodka – you name it; I found them all absolutely intriguing. All those movies where sophisticated urbanites meet for cocktails, witty banter and dancing to jazz – that’s who I wanted to be. I desperately wanted to be the one in the

crowded room holding the glass of some exotic liquor who was, somehow, above whatever else might be happening at that moment. It just didn’t happen. I was rubbish with spirits. I tried my sincere best to like whiskey, but it didn’t work out. At the risk of sounding like a total neophyte, it felt like trying to suck down a tumbler of petroleum. Instead of looking like an urbane intellectual giant, each time I took a sip, my face bore the expression of someone who’d just swallowed a lemon and the tree it grew on. Getting to the end of a glass of whiskey was an act of endurance rather than enjoyment. I
watched on as friends became connoisseurs, even going so far as to discuss their preferred brands and the great whiskey-producing regions of the world. The way they spoke made the stuff sound like the highly intoxicating nectar of the gods. But it all tasted like premium unleaded to me. Vodka was something I always experienced more by accident than design. I don’t recall ever electing to buy vodka; rather, it would simply materialize in the cupboard from time to time. Gin was, without doubt, the sneakiest of them all. I never knew where I stood with gin, right up to the point that I could no longer stand at all.
One minute you’re wondering whether someone substituted the hard stuff for water, the next your tongue has inflated like an airbag and you can no longer speak. Red wine was my absolute favourite. It was how I ended most weeks for a very long time. Like a starter’s pistol, a glass of red wine was tangible evidence that the weekend had finally arrived. Often, I’d fall asleep on the couch on a Friday night, a glass of red wine by my side. I’d thought that maybe I’d been drinking too quickly but I’ve since discovered that, alcohol or not, I’m still likely to nod off in front of the TV on Fridays. Special mention must be made of beer. In many respects, beer is a lot like love in that it too is a many splendoured thing. At the right moment, beer can be extraordinary; the first sip on a hot day or the way it melts when it’s poured into a cold glass. Having said that, I don’t especially miss the way it sits like lead in your body when you’re tired or how it makes you supernaturally flatulent. I have, instead, discovered a host of non-alcoholic beers that are actually pretty great. When I first stopped drinking alcohol, it was like a test to see how long I could go without. I marked the days off the calendar with a texta. Now, after two years, I’m enjoying not ever having to think about alcohol. Don’t get me wrong; I’m not suggesting for a moment that other people shouldn’t drink. But, for me, I’m glad to be done with it. Thinking about it now, there were times in my twenties when I deliberately misunderstood the term ‘alcohol free’. Things have definitely changed. For the better, I think. I’ve no idea whether this will be forever but, for the moment at least, it feels like one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. If that means I can never be the whiskey-sipping sophisticated urbanite of my dreams, so be it. Frankly, failure never felt so good. Cheers. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

NOTHING could separate finals contenders Pines and Dromana last weekend. Pines hosted the Tigers at Eric Bell Reserve. The away side were the better team in the first half, going into the main break with a ten point lead. Pines managed to chip the lead back to four points heading into the final quarter. The game was poised to go down to the wire. Both sides ended up locked at 70 each with five minutes to play. Pines thought they went ahead when Dromana defender Josh Holloway appeared to fumble the ball over the goalline before completing a mark, but the umpire ruled that the mark should stand. The controversial decision ended up deciding the game. Neither side hit the scoreboard after that, with both ending up on 10.10 (70) and sharing the points. Dromana finished the round in fifth place, and Pines finished in sixth. Another close game unfolded at Red Hill Recreation Reserve between Red Hill and Mt Eliza. The Redlegs looked in control at half time, with a 22 point lead. The Hillmen managed to whittle back the lead and took the game right to Mt Eliza. The Redlegs only managed to kick two goals in the second half. Despite their scoreboard struggles they just managed to do enough to hold on to the win. Mt Eliza beat Red Hill 7.12 (54) to 8.9 (57). The Redlegs sit second on the ladder. Ladder leaders Frankston YCW continued their winning ways on Saturday. They defeated Frankston Bombers by 26 points 16.10 (106) to 12.8 (80). Sorrento and Bonbeach also scored good wins this weekend, defeating

KARINGAL grinded out a gritty seven point win over Pearcedale on Saturday. The Bulls have hovered around the top six this season, but haven’t managed to put together a consistent run of results lately. They were comfortably defeated last weekend and looking to bounce back. Pearcedale started strongly and went into half time ahead by 13. Karingal had more scoring opportunities, but failed to capitalise. Karingal wrestled back the lead in the third term, going into the final break ahead by four. They managed to hold on to their lead in the last quarter. The Bulls ended up defeating Pearcedale 13.19 (97) to 14.6 (90). The win leaves Karingal outside the top six by percentage only. Darcy Hope kicked four majors for Karingal. Seth Kelly kicked three. Seaford ended the round in fifth, equal on points with second place, after defeating Mornington in a good game on Saturday. The two sides faced off at Alexandra Park. Seaford took a lead into the first break, and managed to maintain that momentum throughout the game. The Bulldogs got close, but couldn’t quite do enough to topple Seaford. The final score was Mornington 10.16 (76) to Seaford 12.13 (85). Hunter Quint, Ishak Bashir, and Joel Filippone were named in Seaford’s best. Undefeated Langwarrin notched up another win on Saturday, getting the better of Chelsea. Somerville, Devon Meadows, and Hastings rounded out the winners list by beating Crib Point, Rye, and Tyabb respectively. Devon Meadows’ win was especially impressive, as they held Rye to just one goal for the whole game.

Steele retires, ‘Stirts’ to Seagulls SOCCER
By Craig MacKenzie SOMERVILLE’S Adam Steele has been forced to retire due to ongoing concussion issues. The uncompromising defender is the second local player to stop playing this season due to the risk of head injury after post-concussion syndrome prematurely ended the career of Frankston Pines’ stalwart CJ Hodgson in April. London-born Steele, 32, arrived in Melbourne in 2012 and his first club here was Manningham United where he made the switch to defence after playing most of his career up front. He joined Somerville in early 2021 after stints with Eltham Redbacks, Ashburton United and Mount Martha. “Somerville’s been a fantastic club for me in terms of the culture and the playing group,” Steele said. “It’s a great club to play for with a tremendous family atmosphere and I’ll be continuing with my role as technical director of the juniors.” His farewell match on Saturday – a State 4 clash against Noble Park at Tyabb Reserve – went to script as the local side won 5-2. Tom Simmons’ four-goal haul and a Connor Carson half-volley sealed the visitors’ fate but not before Noble Park recovered from a 2-0 half-time deficit to draw level after the interval. In NPL2 Langwarrin lost 3-0 away to Moreland City and Langy captain Rogan McGeorge was sent off in the second half for the third time this season. The big news in State 1 was Mornington’s capture of David Stirton who joined from Doveton last week. The former NPL forward had been training with the Seagulls for the past few weeks and came off the bench in the second half as the local side’s clash with Fitzroy City ended in a 0-0 stalemate on Saturday. Josh Hine had Mornington’s best chance of the first half but took too long to shoot and his eventual attempt was blocked while Josh Heaton’s back post header from a Danny Brooks free-kick in the second half was denied by an excellent reaction save from Fitzroy keeper Jaik Parekh. Fitzroy’s best chance of the second period fell to striker James Papadimitriou who beat Seagulls’ custodian Taylor Davidson to the ball and rounded him only to scuff his shot which was cleared. The match was played at North Seaford Reserve due to ongoing problems with Dallas Brooks Park and Mornington’s postponed fixture against Ca-
Chelsea lost 3-0 away to league leader Dandenong South on Saturday. “We made defensive errors and gifted them the first two goals,” Chelsea head coach Carlo Melino said. “We had a number of chances including hitting the cross bar twice and while it was a good effort from the lads, it was disappointing that we didn’t take our chances to make it a closer game.” In State 5 Mount Martha and Aspendale drew 1-1 at Civic Reserve last weekend. The visitors had the better of the first half and a Keiran Hughes goal gave them the lead at the break. But David Oswald’s 73rd minute strike from the edge of the area ensured that the points were shared. Rosebud played out a thrilling 4-4 draw away from home against Hampton Park United last weekend. First-half goals from Cory Osorio and Blake Hicks had Rosebud 2-0 up at half-time and Jacob Field made it 3-0 early in the second period before Hampton hit back twice with the first from the penalty spot. Field made it 4-2 with an overhead volley from a corner but a rare Hayden Hicks error allowed the home side to get to 4-3 and late in the game snatch an equaliser.
NEXT WEEK’S GAMES
sey Comets will be played on Wednesday this week at Lawton Park with a 7.30pm kick-off. In State 2 Peninsula Strikers came from 2-1 down at Ballam Park to beat Monbulk Rangers 3-2 on Saturday night. Strikers led 1-0 at half-time after Riley Anderton finished off a quick freekick from Cooper Andrews. But goals from Monbulk’s Theo Danilis and Tom Wilkinson in the 63rd and 66th minutes had the home side in trouble. Substitute Mohsen Chehimi levelled with a low, left-foot strike from an Ahmad Tabbara cross and Jai Power headed home the winner following an Andrews corner. Chehimi had been cautioned before coming on and a second caution in injury time earned an automatic sendoff. Skye United lost 2-1 at home against Mooroolbark on Saturday in the local

88th minute saw him casually stroke the ball into goal following a defensive blunder. Pines make their long-awaited return to Monterey Reserve this Saturday. In State 4 Baxter has signed Brodie McMinimee from Doveton and he had a fine debut in the club’s 2-0 home win over FC Noble Hurricanes on Saturday. The local club had to act quickly after three senior players – Luke Grant, Nat Daher and Charlie O’Connell – joined Mazenod in State 1. Baxter’s Jack Buttery gave the hosts a half-time lead after a superb Lewis Gibson cross was met first time by Joey Bucello whose shot was blocked before Buttery finished well from the rebound. Gibson made the points safe in the 75th minute when he cut in past a defender on the right and his shot took a slight deflection.

club’s Chris Attard Memorial round. Jack Buglass put the visitors ahead in the 13th minute after a long ball caught out the Skye defence. The home side drew level in the 71st minute after Jack Gallagher pounced on a loose ball in the box but the Barkers clinched the points in injury time when Geordie Scott’s strike found the top corner. The Chris Attard Memorial Winners were Jack Gallagher in the seniors and Nick Wright in the reserves. Skye’s fixture against North Caulfield will be played this Thursday at Skye Recreation Reserve at 8.30pm. In State 3 Frankston Pines stayed on top of the ladder with a 2-0 away win over Whitehorse United last weekend. Two goals from Liam Baxter in the last 10 minutes of normal time settled the issue. His first goal came when he was put through and rounded the keeper before finishing calmly and his second in the
