By Mike HastANTONELLA Celi is Mornington Peninsula Shire’s new mayor, elected at the council’s annual meeting on Monday last week.

She defeated Cr Frank Martin for the position after winning six votes in the 11-councillor chamber (see breakout box on Page 7).

Her win was a shock to many of her colleagues as well as residents who had been invited to witness the vote and attend the after-party as Cr Martin was the favourite.

Cr Celi (pronounced chay-lee) is the sixth woman mayor to lead the shire since it was created in 1994 from the former shires of Flinders, Mornington and Hastings.

Councillors were fi rst elected in 1997 after the shire was run for three years by commissioners appointed by the Kennett Liberal government following statewide council amalgamations.

Her predecessors are Judith Graley (now ALP state MP for Narre Warren South), Anne Shaw (2004 and 2008-09), Bev Colomb (2007-08) and out-going mayor Lynn Bowden.

Cr Celi, 45, was elected to the coun-cil at a byelection in July 2010 after Susan Beveridge retired mid-term.

The new mayor was re-elected in October 2012 in the multi-councillor ward of Seawinds, which replaced Truemans, Rosebud and Kangerong wards last year.

It was third time lucky for Cr Celi as she had previous stood in Dromana-based Kangerong Ward at the general council elections of 2005 and 2008, losing to Graham Pittock in 2008 and the late David Gregan in 2005.

Cr Celi became interested in a ca-

reer in politics after she and Mr Uri moved to the peninsula in 2004. She had a short association with the short-lived People Power party, co-founded by journalist and shareholder activist Stephen Mayne, prior to the 2006 state election. Born in Melbourne, Ms Celi started her working career in public relations and marketing as an execu-tive and administration assistant. She changed careers in 1992 and studied alternative medicine, working in the alternative healthcare industry as well as establishing a private practice in re-medial massage.

In her acceptance speech, Cr Celi said winning the mayoralty was a sur-prise.

“I am glad that my decision to put my hand up [for] mayor has come to fruition, considering how challenging the lead-up has been,” she said.

Cr Celi said she would “endeavour to fulfi l my responsibilities and duties in a way which makes it a great year for all councillors, a year of committed support and measurable outcomes”.

“The achievement of this position does not happen in isolation.”

By Keith PlattNOVEMBER has been nominated as “Say no to family violence” month in Hastings.

Posters are being put up and men are being asked to swear the White Ribbon oath to protect women from violence.

The oath – “Never to commit, ex-cuse or remain silent about violence against women” – is part of the non-profi t White Ribbon Australia’s male-led campaign to end men’s violence against women.

Emma Robinson of the Hastings Respectful Relationships Group said up to one in three women “will experi-ence family violence and one in four children will witness it in their own homes”.

“But despite being so common, it is still a problem that many people are unaware of.”

The latest crime statistics show as-saults on the Mornington Peninsula jumped nearly 11 per cent in the 12 months to June 2013.

While domestic violence is not listed separately, non-family related assaults dropped by nearly one per cent over the same period.

Ms Robinson said Hastings resi-dents were being urged to “take a stand against this hidden issue”.

“We’ve developed this campaign because there are still so many people who don’t understand the problem,” she said.

“We need to get the town talking to help everyone understand that vio-lence and controlling behaviour in re-lationships is not acceptable, and that

we can all do something to tackle it.“So many people are affected by

family violence but feel trapped in their relationship. They don’t talk about it because they’re ashamed or may even think they deserve it. We need to let people know it’s not acceptable.”

The campaign has received support from businesses displaying posters that “explain what family violence is, how common it is, and that we can all tackle it by speaking up and promoting respectful relationships”.

Maria Chemis, also a member of the respectful relationships group, ques-tioned what children learned from see-ing domestic violence.

“If they see someone hitting out in arguments, being controlling and put-ting someone else down all the time, they’re going to think that’s OK,” she said. “They won’t know how to solve arguments without violence. We’ve got to teach them about respect and equality.”

The anti-violence campaign runs all November and includes White Ribbon Day on Monday 25 November, which marks the national campaign to stop violence against women.

Volunteers from the respectful rela-tionships group will ask men to swear the White Ribbon oath at Hastings market on Thursday 21 November.

They will also give away white rib-bons and ask people to wear them to show their support.

The group is part of the Communi-ties Respectful Relationships project fi nanced through the Frankston and Mornington Peninsula Primary Care Partnership.

NATIVE and introduced birds love Hastings with its eu-calypts, other indigenous trees and shrubs, and proximity to bushland and Western Port.

The town is “invaded” at various times of the year by our feathered friends. Recent visitors included hundreds of corellas. The noisy birds that look a bit like white cockatoos loved a big gum tree at the corner of High St and Marine Parade but have headed off to parts un-known.

People spending a lazy day last Sunday on the fore-shore might have heard a new bird sound – a very loud piercing note that sounded like a parrot of some kind but not a local.

It turned out to be a sun conure, a South American parakeet, but it was not wild.

The bird was perched on the shoulder of John “Mitch” Mitchell, who was visiting the town from his home in Ferntree Gully looking for a house to buy.

Mitch has had the conure for four years, and it was quite comfortable sitting on his shoulder as he walked around the town.

The News asked Mitch if the bird was a male or fe-male: “She’s a she and is called Ernie,” he said.

“When I bought the bird, I named it Ernie.“I was told the only way to fi nd out if it was a male or

female was a surgical examination, which I did not want to do, or by DNA testing, which sounded a bit expensive.”

Mitch later found out the DNA test cost just $25. He had it done and Ernie turned out to be female but the name stayed.

Ernie does not live in a cage, Mitch said.The colourful little bird eats fruit, vegetables and nuts.

Mitch pulled out of his pocket small pieces of apple for the bird to munch before he crossed High St, jumped in his car and headed back to the foothills.

By Mike HastTHE Australian Transport Safety Bureau is investigating a minor mid-air collision between two light planes at Tyabb air-fi eld on 10 November.

The investigation is not expected to be completed until March next year.

Peninsula Aero Club president Peter Bernardi believed it was the fi rst mid-air accident at the airfi eld since it opened in 1965.

“The club has investigated the colli-sion and will wait for the ATSB report so see if the bureau wants us to do any-thing,” he said.

The bureau said a Cessna 152 was conducting a practice glide approach and touch-and-go (landing on a runway and taking off again without com ing to a full stop).

Meanwhile, a Jabiru J160 was at the holding point for the runway.

“After confi rming the approach and runway were clear, the pilot of the Jab-iru lined up on the runway,” the bureau stated.

“Immediately after take-off, the pilot of the Jabiru saw [the Cessna] above.

“Shortly after, [the Cessna’s] elevator [part of the tail] contacted the tail of the Jabiru. The Jabiru was forced back onto the runway.”

The bureau said the Cessna pilot “initi-ated a go-around, which required a con-siderable amount of control inputs”.

The plane landed safely.The bureau stated both pilots reported

broadcasting the appropriate radio calls.“However, the pilot of [the Cessna] re-

ported that his turning fi nal call and the Jabiru’s lining up call may have occurred simultaneously.

“As part of the investigation, the ATSB will interview the pilots … and obtain photographs.”

The Jabiru, owned by Peninsula Aero Club sec retary Jack Vevers, has been re-turned to the Jabiru factory for repair, Mr Bernardi said.

Mr Vevers was carrying one adult pas-senger.

The Cessna’s damage was described as minor by the ATSB.

Mr Bernardi said the Cessna was re-paired and back in the air three days later.

He confi rmed reports the Cessna was being fl own by a trainee pilot with an instructor.

No one was injured although Ambu-lance Victoria was called to the airfi eld just after 11am to assess four people.

Peninsula Aero Club hosted FunFlight at the airfi eld on the day of the accident.

COMMUNITIES around Western Port are being asked to help fi ll a container with rice for the survivors of Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines.

With a still-mounting death toll and thousands left homeless and scrambling for food and water, the Western Port Oberon Association has launched a similar appeal for aid as it did soon after the 2004 Boxing Day tsunami hit Sri Lanka.

The association’s Max Bryant described the devastation in the Philippines as “unbelievable”.

“Only a few short years ago the association was the fi rst community group to start collecting after the massive tsunami, sending more than 300 boxes of clothing to Sri Lanka,” he said.

“It is time to stand up again and help people who desperately need our assistance.”

Mr Bryant said the association was conducting a “rice drive” to fi ll a container with rice to send to the people in the Philippines who are starving.

“Sending money is no good as it ends up in the wrong pockets.

“One of our members, Sue Tallon, spoke with a woman from [the Philippines city of] Tacloban on Wednesday morning and she said they were desperately in need of rice and water.

“We have also had contact with the Philippine Association in Australia, which is supporting the proposal and it in turn has had discussions with the Philippine Consulate in Melbourne.”

Mr Bryant said Coles in Hastings would provide 10kg bags of rice for $10 each.

“We are calling for volunteers to help with the project collecting donations and at the drop-off point,” he said.

“Tallons Real Estate has arranged the use of Factory 1, 1907 Frankston-Flinders Rd in Hastings and ‘Cash for Rice’ donations can be made at several venues around Hastings that have signs displayed.”

Continued from Page 1Cr Celi thanked her family, “Pierre

and Shekinah”, as well as “my mentors and all those who along the way have been there for me either personally or professionally who are in the gallery tonight; you know who you are”.

“As I take up the position of mayor with a sense of pride and honour I know that I will dedicate myself to the role and will endeavour to do my best at all times in representing the best in-terests of the community, the shire or-ganisation, fellow councillors and the municipality as a whole.”

Outgoing mayor Cr Lynn Bowden reported to the community “achieve-ments delivered by the council during 2013”, and thanked her councillor col-leagues, the CEO, shire offi cers and the community for its commitment and support over the past 12 months.

CorrectionCorrectionSEAWINDS Ward councillor Antonel-la Celi has never sought pre-selection for the Liberal Party as was referred to in The News on 29 October in the com-ment piece “Antonella Celi should be fi rst among equals”.

Behind the scenes of voteBehind the scenes of voteTHREE councillors told their colleagues they would be competing for the mayoralty – Antonella Celi, Frank Martin and Bev Colomb.

In the weeks before the vote, Martin was confi dent he had the numbers.Just hours before the election, he told people at Dromana’s Remembrance

Day ceremony he had his acceptance speech on his council-issued iPad.The key to Martin’s confi dence was knowing that Colomb was standing

and she and Celi would have split the vote of the so-called progressives, leaving Martin with a clear run home.

But Colomb withdrew before the contest when some colleagues convinced her the above scenario would occur.

Celi was the preferred option of fi ve councillors – Tim Rodgers, Hugh Fraser, Graham Pittock, outgoing mayor Lynn Bowden and Colomb.

When nominations were called, Celi and Martin “threw their hats in the ring”, in that order.

Votes for Celi were called fi rst. The fi ve listed above went for Celi – and she voted for herself. Six votes and enough to be elected.

For Martin’s supporters – David Gibb, Anne Shaw, David Garnock and Andrew Dixon – it was a shock result.

The look on some of their faces was, as one wag noted, priceless.Mayor Celi mostly votes with the dominant group led by Gibb and Shaw.

None of them voted for her on Monday last week.Mike Hast

Celi voted mayor in shock resultCeli voted mayor in shock result

Two in a row: New mayor Cr Antonelli Celi, left, and outgoing mayor Cr Lynn Bowden of Western Port-based Watson Ward at the reception for Cr Celi. It is the fi rst time since the shire was formed in 1994 there have been women mayors in consecutive years.

Using leftovers Using leftovers to make mealsto make mealsCHEF Alanna Bettles is holding a workshop to show how to make the most of leftovers.

Her methods will be dished up at the Luscious Leftovers workshop at Mornington Peninsula Shire’s Eco Living Display Centre at The Briars in Mt Martha.

Ms Bettles, who includes experience at the The Long Table in Red Hill South, will show how to improve menu planning and how to transform leftovers into “delicious” meals.

Mornington Peninsula mayor Cr Antonella Celi said food waste was an “ever-increasing issue, with Australians spending about $8 billion on food they do not eat”.

“This equates to 345 kilograms of food being wasted annually per household. Not only is the food wasted but also so is the water, fuel and resources used to produce this food,” Cr Celi said.

“It is estimated we could save about $1000 a year by planning our meals and using food more effi ciently.”

Climate worriers Several hundred Mornington Peninsula and and Frankston region residents rallied on Frankston foreshore on Sunday as part of the National Day of Climate Action organised by activist group GetUp. Organiser Claire Dawson said Prime Minister Tony Abbott and his new government was taking the nation backward on climate change. “It has just slashed jobs at the CSIRO and decided it wouldn’t be sending a senior minister to climate negotiations in Poland. It has already cut the climate department, abolished the Climate Commission, and last week started a process to repeal the carbon price and renewable energy funding.” Among speakers was former Mornington Peninsula Shire councillor Reade Smith, right.

By Chris BrennanAMBULANCE waiting times at Frankston Hospital are now longer than at any other major emergency department in Melbourne, fi gures re-leased by Ambulance Victoria and made public by the state Opposition last week reveal.

Labor’s Parliamentary Secretary for Health Wade Noonan said the state’s gridlocked health system was forc-ing ambulances to wait outside hos-pitals longer than ever before, with Frankston the worst affected.

The latest fi gures, obtained by the Opposition under a freedom of in-formation request, reveal ambulance ramping times at Frankston Hospital blew out from an average of 709 hours a month over the 2009-10 fi nancial year to 1275 hours in 2012-13, an in-crease of 566 hours.

“These fi gures prove what paramed-ics have been saying for a long time now – that ramping at hospitals has never been as bad as it is now,” Mr Noonan said.

“Longer ramping times at hospitals means patients are waiting longer to get into hospital and there are fewer ambulances available to respond to life-threatening emergencies. This places lives at risk.”

The fi gures came on top of a re-port released the previous week that showed Frankston Hospital had among

the state’s worst-performing emergen-cy departments.

Peninsula Health’s latest annual report revealed it had failed to meet the majority of targets set by the state government for timely treatment of pa-tients at Frankston Hospital.

The hospital was able to transfer patients from ambulances within the required 40-minute time frame just 56 per cent of the time – well short of the target of 90 per cent set by the state government – which was undermin-ing Ambulance Victoria’s ability to respond to new cases.

A lack of beds and funding shortfalls were blamed for the hospital’s inability to meet targets.

However, the state government last week unveiled new measures aimed at improving patient transfer times, with hospitals now required to assume im-mediate responsibility for people as soon as they arrive by ambulance.

Health Minister David Davis re-leased a report from the Ambulance Transfer Taskforce, which was formed to develop improved ways to transfer patients from the care of Ambulance Victoria to hospital emergency depart-ments.

Mr Davis said all recommendations of the taskforce would be adopted, as the government adopted “a whole-of-system approach to emergency care” that would “more sharply delineate

responsibilities between Ambulance Victoria and emergency departments”.

The report recommended Ambu-lance Victoria work to ensure “optimal distribution of ambulances” to avoid the clustering of arrivals at hospitals.

This would also be achieved through better information sharing between emergency departments and Ambu-lance Victoria, and enhanced by the progressive implementation of ambu-lance arrival board technology at major metropolitan emergency departments.

“Our investment in paramedics and hospitals, coupled with the recommen-dations of this report, will help tackle the challenges of growing demand,” Mr Davis said.

But critics of the move, who included doctors, nurses and paramedics, said the issue could only be fi xed by more hospital beds and that new measures would simply shift the problem from Ambulance Victoria to hospital staff.

The Opposition also slammed the new measures as a “dump and run” policy.

“Hospital chiefs have been lumbered with the task of fi xing Denis Napthine’s ambulance ramping crisis and in return they’ve had to contend with $826 mil-lion in cuts,” Mr Noonan said.

“Without the additional promised beds and staff, this dump-and-run pol-icy will simply deepen the pressure on our failing health system.”

MORNINGTON Peninsula ecologist Malcolm Legg highlighted the damag-ing impact of human activity, the inva-sion by environmental weeds and in-troduction of top order predators such as foxes and feral cats on native fauna populations during a talk to the South Eastern Centre for Sustainability’s (SECS) annual meeting at Mt Eliza Community Centre.

He said if native fauna was to stand a chance against habitat loss, death on roads, feral invasion and attack, the general public would need to become educated and aware of the damage oc-curring in order to take steps to reduce the extent of the damage.

SECS president Steve Karakitsos said the fi rst step would be to lessen the invasion of foreign species threat-ening local fauna, with 144 fauna species being classed as “threatened” in the Gippsland Plain bioregion, of

which the peninsula is a part.There was also a great need to edu-

cate the public on the plight faced by the ecosystem, Mr Karakitsos said. SECS had been designed with this in mind and was set to be an educational hub where students could learn about the importance of the environment and increasing local fauna populations for generations to come.

Mr Legg has carried out extensive fi eld surveys in Mornington Peninsula Shire and has created the Mornington Peninsula Wildlife Atlas, soon to be launched by the shire. The shire has completed a survey of wildlife on the peninsula taking in 71,000 reports over fi ve years.

He has conducted fauna surveys for most Parks Victoria properties in the shire, including Point Nepean National Park. Roger Ryan

CHRISTMASPARTYPACKAGES

LOOKING for a holiday with a difference, Deborah McDonell decided it was time to try out the high life.

Two months of research later, Ms McDonell was booked and in training. The high life suggested by her friend would take her close to the top of the world – trekking in the Himalayas, including Mt Everest base camp.

“It wasn’t something I had planned to do, but I was excited about the forthcoming adventure,” Ms McDonell said.

That was 18 months ago.Her “amazing” 13-day journey

took place last month and included adventures and near-misses reserved for those seeking extreme experiences.

Faced by a daunting 135-kilometre trek at an altitude of 5000 plus metres, the Mornington Peninsula resident began specifi cally training for the physical demands that would be required.

“I researched doing some altitude training but it was expensive,” she said. “I’ve been doing bootcamp with Hanley’s Fitness in Mornington for a few years now and Ty Hanley, who runs the program, and his partner Di helped me prepare for the experience by concentrating on all aspects of my fi tness including cardiovascular, strength and diet,” Ms McDonell said.

Ms McDonell joined a group of 12 Australians for the trek, which was led by a team of four Sherpa with four to six porters carrying their packs. The high point of the trip was

High aims for holiday experienceHigh aims for holiday experience

climbing 5500 metres to be at the top of Kala Patar at sunrise “with 360-degree views of the Himalayas, Everest base camp and Chola Pass”.

The clear skies and sunshine at the summit contrasted with getting caught in an avalanche while trekking through snow knee to waist high.

“Our head Sherpa was very experienced and with the assistance of the other Sherpa ensured that all of the trekkers were safe and survived the experience,” Ms McDonell said.

“We were told that to trek around

the base of a mountain following recent snowfalls, we needed to go in small groups and keep close to the side of the mountain.

“As a group of four we were moving from one rock shelter to the next.

“During one of these moves I became aware of a thunderous roar, looked up and the snow was just coming down. Instinctively, I just crouched down and ducked my head into my chest.

“After the snow stopped falling, I

looked around and two of the others in the group were being plucked from the snow by the Sherpa and one of the trekkers was not to be seen.

“Fortunately he was safe; no injuries but it was certainly not an experience that any of our group will forget, because not only snow came off the mountain but also rocks, which fortunately missed another of our group.”

The trek ended at “busy, crowded” Kathmandu, “which is an experience in itself”.

“This provided an insight into a country that is extremely poor, but the people were friendly, welcoming and eager to provide the people visiting their country with a memorable experience,” Ms McDonell said.

“The trip was an experience that I will remember for the rest of my life, from life in the city to the incredible beauty of the Himalayas and also the friendships made during the trip.”

NEW data shows the reliability of Frankston line trains has improved over the past three years. In October, 92.9 per cent were on time compared with 71.1 per cent in October 2010.

“This is a noteworthy, 21.9 per cent improve-ment and shows what the government’s commit-ment to fi xing our public transport can achieve,” Mornington MP David Morris said.

“The fi gures illustrate a substantial gain in re-liability of trains running on the Frankston line. This is terrifi c news for Mornington Peninsula commuters who use the service on a regular basis. A more reliable public transport system means less time travelling, and more time at home with your family.”

Mr Morris said new fi gures showed the punctuality of Metro’s services had improved on every one of its 16 lines last month compared with the second-last month of the former Labor government in October 2010.

The improvement had occurred despite Metro operating an extra 1078 weekly services this year compared with 2010, Mr Morris said.

In the 2013-14 Victorian budget, the Coalition government committed more than $520 million to public transport improvements, including: A $177 million order for eight X.Trapolis trains and associated stabling and signalling with trains due to begin running from 2015. A $2 million to plan for the procurement of high capacity trains, which would be able to carry more than 1100 passengers. A $100 million upgrade to the Frankston line, with additional track, signalling, power and maintenance facility and station upgrades to im-prove service reliability and enable X.Trapolis trains to run on the Frankston, Williamstown and Werribee lines. A $78 million injection to continue the rollout of Protective Services Offi cers at train stations.

“October’s fi gures show a huge improvement in services in just three years,” Mr Morris said.

MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire’s library service has signed up with eSmart Libraries, a cyber safety initiative established by the Alannah and Madeline Foundation, and supported by Telstra, to promote positive use of technology.

Geoff Carson, the shire’s manager of libraries arts and culture, said the rapid growth of technology had changed how people communicated.

“The eSmart Libraries initiative will enable peninsula libraries to evaluate current cyber safety status, roll out proven cyber safety programs and provide training and knowledge to support the library community,” Mr Carson said.

The mayor, Cr Antonella Celi, said cyber bullying was an issue that required much attention and it was important to minimise negative impacts.

“By implementing eSmart, the community experience of accessing technology in our libraries can be one of safety and it will achieve many positive benefi ts and outcomes,” she said.

Schools have reported positive results after joining the eSmart program. The need to provide a safe environment for people to access technology was essential as use of free library digital services becomes more popular.

By Chris BrennanPOLICE divers conducted a fi nal search last week for the body of a New Zealand student who disappeared in rough surf off rocks near Blair-gowrie after he had jumped in to rescue a friend a week earlier.

Divers conducted an extensive search of the rocky coastline at Pearses Beach last Wednesday but were unable to fi nd the 20-year-old man’s body.

Underwater search efforts – following the Mel-bourne University student’s disappearance on Wednesday 6 November – have been hampered by poor weather and rough seas.

Police search and rescue offi cials said no fur-ther dive operations were planned in the area at this stage but Parks Victoria would continue to monitor the shoreline.

Police believe the man was swept under a rock ledge or crevice, rather than out to sea, based on

interviews with his two friends, who had wit-nessed his disappearance.

The man, a New Zealand resident of Korean descent, was visiting the peninsula with two friends when one of them slipped off rocks into rough seas.

Sorrento police said the man had bravely jumped into the water and helped his friend safe-ly back onto the rocks but was then swept under-water when hit by a large wave as he attempted to climb out.

A rescue helicopter arrived within an hour but was unable to locate the man.

Uniformed police from a number of Morning-ton Peninsula stations were joined by the police air wing, search and resuce divers as well as SES and coast guard volunteers to continue the search over the past week.

The man’s mother, father and brother visited the area last weekend accompanied by police.

By Mike HastMORNINGTON Peninsula Shire spent 41 per cent less than planned on roads in the last fi nan-cial year.

It had budgeted to spend almost $19 million but outlaid just over $11 million.

If there are more potholes and other damage on the roads you use, now you know why.

It also underspent on buildings, aiming to spend $8.5 million but only shelling out $4.78 million, a difference of $3.78 million or 44 per cent. The shire blamed “planning issues, weather delays and extended con-sultation”.

It underspent on public toilets, sports pavilions, and Mornington’s Ben-tons Square Preschool and Baxter Preschool.

However, shire spend-ing on land jumped from a budgeted $50,000 to just over $7 million, most of it on Rosebud Central shop-ping centre in Wannaeue Place and two adjacent properties that face Ninth Ave. This was a jump of an extraordinary 14,000 per cent.

The three properties were purchased just weeks before the October council elections to take the heat out of the Southern Peninsula Aquatic Centre (SPA) controversy.

Councillors were bitterly divided over the proposed foreshore site for SPA and the shire bought the shopping centre as an alternative site.

The underspending statistics reveal how the

shire was able to buy the shopping centre and the two shops without borrowing more money.

When the 2012-13 budget was set in May 2012, there was no mention of the planned pur-chase of the shopping centre and two shops.

The shire stated in its 2012-13 annual report that it had underspent on: The Safer Local Roads program by almost $2.8 million and Black Spotss by $2.79m. The Sorrento seawall project by $500,000

“with the project delayed due to planning and scop-ing works”. Footpaths by $478,000 and urban roads by $469,000. Walkway, bike path and footpath repairs by $383,000. Mornington bus transit precinct by $346,000.

The shire also under-spent on other infra-structure projects such as recreation master plans, skate parks, playgrounds,

netball courts and its “neighbourhood activity centre structure plan” by a total of almost $1.5 million, or 32 per cent.

It planned to spend almost $300,000 on fur-niture and equipment but underspent by almost $100,000, or 32 per cent. However, its budget for IT jumped from zero to $186,000 with some of the furniture and equipment being “moved” into the IT category. Oddly, the 2012-13 budget was adopted by councillors before the 2011-12 fi nancial statements were fi nalised.

Open 7 Days

PUPILS in Grade 4A at Balnarring Primary School had a sleepover with a difference in the school hall on Friday night.

They had none of the comforts of home except for a sleeping bag.

Dexter, above, and other children slept on cardboard on the fl oor to experience a little of what it’s like to be homeless and raised $400 for swags for the homeless in Frankston.

The sleepover was part of the school’s ruMAD project (Are you making a difference).

Teacher Suzanne Litchfi eld said pupils in grades 3 and 4 had selected a project that “al-lows them to come to deeper understanding of global issues”.

Issues included better treatment for refugees (Grade 3A), preserving orang-utans and their habitat (3B), a home for all people (4A), a world

where everyone is healthy and safe (3/4A) and a world where everyone is kind and friendly (3/4B).

Activities include raising money for various charities including Cancer Council Victoria and Presentation Family Centre, which runs respite holidays for refugee families.

By Fran HenkeWHEN Geoff Tate completes his visual arts diploma at Chisholm in Frankston this month, 50 years will have passed between the start of his dream to study art and its realisation.

Tate is now 76. Aged 17, he wanted to be a commercial artist and enrolled at Caulfi eld Tech with the aim of staying the full course of four years.

But his father decided Tate should leave and get a proper job. Unwillingly, he obeyed.

He moved into “bus driving, factory work, anything that made a quid” but never lost the urge. Married with children, in 1965 he tried again, opting to work by day, studying commercial art over four years at night school.

As a student, he won 50 pounds with a fabric design for Nylex and “that helped” with his young family including twins. Two of his daughters have their father’s passion for art.

A man of precision, he taught himself signwriting. “Fine art was something you did as a hobby,” he said.

After seeing an advertisement for a children’s books illustrator, he submitted his portfolio to a Sydney publisher.

Among the work was a train illustration and this won him the commission.

“I was keen on trains but didn’t want to be typecast,” he said. Tate did the train book called Racing the Moon by Melbourne author Morris Lurie.

He illustrated a second book for Lurie called Greedy Roger or The Naughty Cookbook.

After retiring as a graphic artist and now living in Frankston, Tate wanted to go to university but found he could attend Chisholm for a visual arts diploma to fi nish what he started in 1954.

He majored in painting, with sculpture as a minor. Ill health has made sculpture a challenge but “I have created the required three bronzes from black wax models”.

He prefers to paint in watercolour and continued to attend life drawing classes from those early days at Caulfi eld Tech.

“I am most interested in people; portraits,” he said. “I like paintings to be anatomically correct. The epitome for me is Chloe [the famous nude painted by Jules Joseph Lefebvre; hanging in Young and Jackson’s hotel in Melbourne].

“I would die happy if I could paint something like that. But there are many better artists than me who could do it, so I don’t think this is going to happen,” he said modestly.

Tate paid tribute to staff at the visual arts campus, but particularly mentioned painting and sculpture teacher Jon Hatfi eld. “He goes above and beyond the call of duty in his guidance for us, although not everyone gets his sense of humour.”

Geoff Tate’s work will be on show with other students’ painting, sculpture, printmaking, photography and illustration at Building C during the Open Studio exhibition from 21 November to 12 December. The exhibition will be opened by cartoonist-painter Geoff “Jeff” Hook of Somers.

COMMENTBy David HarrisonTHE next round in Mornington Pen-insula Shire Council’s long slugfest over Rosebud’s contentious pool and gym complex is set for 9 December, if Rosebud Chamber of Commerce has a reliable source inside the shire.

Get there early for a front-row seat. The chamber is advertising the

meeting (4.30pm at the Mornington shire offi ces) on a sign near the pool site. It has been a fervent advocate for the Southern Peninsula Aquatic Cen-tre (SPA) for years.

It’s anticipated that councillors will fi nally decide where the project will be built – and it is rumoured the contro-versial foreshore site is back in play.

A new shire-commissioned report on SPA’s location is said to conclude the foreshore would be a cheaper place to build rather than the “inland” site at Rosebud Central shopping cen-tre in Wannaeue Place.

The shire bought the shopping cen-tre and two adjacent shops in Ninth Ave for $5.87 million just weeks be-fore last year’s council elections. At the time, shire CEO Michael Kennedy said the purchase was made to stop the council “tearing itself apart”.

Councillors have been bitterly di-vided over the foreshore site since early 2012 when Environment Minis-ter Ryan Smith gave the shire “in prin-ciple” coastal consent to build on the foreshore, subject to it providing more information.

The purchase also had the effect of neutralising the issue at the election. Pool – and foreshore site – supporter Cr Antonella Celi, elected mayor last week, subsequently scraped back into council in Seawinds Ward, which cov-ers the two pool sites.

The latest pro-foreshore report is a happy stroke of serendipity for the relentless foreshore lobby group, led vigorously by veteran councillor Da-vid Gibb.

So too is the timing of the Decem-ber meeting, after election of the new mayor, Cr Celi, and the departure of Cr Lynn Bowden from the role. Cr Bowden had generally voted against the foreshore site.

Mayors have two votes. The second, or casting vote, can be used to break a tie. More of that later.

The foreshore site had the support of a majority of councillors until a geo-technical report warned it could add as much as $7 million to cost of SPA, estimated to be between $30 and $45 million.

Vision splendid: This is the only drawing released to the public of how Southern Peninsula Aquatic Centre might look on the Rosebud foreshore. It was created by renowned Melbourne architect Daryl Jackson, whose brief was broad and unrestricted by a building budget. The pier, saltwater pool and lighthouse will not be built.

Battle to resume on pool siteBattle to resume on pool site

Are councillors well enough in-formed about this massive proposal to cast a vote? With less than a month before the expected December slug-fest, councillors appear to be singu-larly ill-equipped for informed debate, disadvantaged by a lack of essential material.

SPA will be the shire’s most expen-sive project. An orderly and effi cient planning approach would have en-sured councillors saw the new report well before now. They may not see it until the day of the meeting, with inad-equate time to digest it and raise ques-tions with council offi cers.

Nor have all, if any, councillors seen SPA-related material Minister Smith required from the shire to back its case for the foreshore location. For all they know, the information has not been sent to Mr Smith and the government, nor a response received.

Until the shire sends the informa-tion, the foreshore option cannot be given fi nal ministerial approval. This approval is conditional on getting and approving the information sought. But that will not necessarily stop council-lors voting to approve it.

It is safe to assume the shire would

have announced ministerial approval from the rooftops had it been granted.

Among the information Environ-ment Minister Ryan Smith sought was: Detailed design drawings. The business case. A traffi c management assessment. A coastal vulnerability assessment. Assessment of the design against the Siting and Design Guidelines for Structures on the Victorian Coast.

“It is anticipated that Mornington Peninsula Shire will be preparing the above documents and I encourage you to engage in the shire’s process-es,” a senior Department of Sustain-ability and Environment offi cial told the Mornington Peninsula Ratepay-ers’ and Residents’ Association on 26 March last year.

(DSE is now called the Department of Environment and Primary Indus-tries.)

That letter was received one year and eight months ago. In that time one councillor, Graham Pittock, has had to remove himself from SPA discus-sions and votes because of an anony-mous complaint that he has a confl ict of interest. Cr Pittock has a squash and gymnasium centre in Dromana.

His absence from SPA matters makes it more likely the foreshore will be the chosen site.

Support for the foreshore site will come from fi ve councillors – David Gibb, Anne Shaw, Frank Martin, Da-vid Garnock and mayor Antonella Celi. Against will be Tim Rodgers, Hugh Fraser, Bev Colomb and Lynn Bowden.

The imponderable is Cr Andrew Dixon, whose election material last year promised he would not support a “costly and environmentally damaging pool on Rosebud’s foreshore”.

Cr Dixon generally votes with the Gibb camp and has sided with it twice on SPA. Will he vote that way for a third time, against his election pledge, on the pool location?

If he votes against the foreshore site, it will be tied at fi ve-all. Cr Celi, who supports “a pool for Rosebud” on the foreshore, could then use her casting vote.

Section 90 of the Local Government

Act states that “if there is an equality of votes the chairperson has a second vote”.

Convention is the casting vote be used to preserve the status quo. Thus, mayor Celi’s casting vote should be against building SPA on the foreshore, since councillors rejected the fore-shore site at a meeting in June.

Interestingly, this vote was led by Cr Dixon, who said that abandoning the foreshore site would “break the dead-lock that has plagued this project and the council for too long”.

Such common sense from one so young and new to council is to be ap-plauded.

Is anyone else who usually aligns with the Gibb camp likely to change sides on this pivotal matter? With a dearth of solid evidence, including no plans, no costings, no ministerial ap-proval, no business plan and massive borrowings required by a heavily in-debted shire, it is likely to be the hard-est decision councillors will make.

AN art exhibition exploring the history of Sor-rento by Mornington Peninsula painter Justine McNamara is at Gallery Sorrento this month.

Once Upon A Time in Sorrento explores the history and changing face of the popular town-ship through the 1950s, ’60s and ’70s.

Iconic landmarks depicted in the exhibition include Sorrento Hotel, which was built in 1872.

Having grown up in Sorrento, McNamara (pictured) said she had witnessed much growth and change and wanted to capture a historic snapshot of the town as it used to be.

“With so much talk about how much Sorrento has changed, I wanted to create a series of paint-ings depicting the town through the ’50s to the ’70s as a way to remember aspects of the place that now seem lost,” she said.

“I met with historical groups and friends who have generations of family dating back to fi rst settlement who shared their wonderful photo-graphs and stories with me. The town has such a rich history.”

Once Upon A Time in Sorrento is open daily 10am-5pm until 29 November at Gallery Sor-rento, 141 Ocean Beach Rd, Sorrento.

ONE of a only a handful of peninsula properties that could be described as world class, “Bushy Park” has been meticulously designed and appointed with breathtaking luxuries from around the globe. The 22.25-hectare property has been owned by the Hodgins family for more than 100 years, and standing pride of place is the magnifi cent, 1116-square metre reproduction of “Oak Alley” – a historic mansion found on the banks of the Mississippi River in the community of Vacherie, Louisiana. Defi ned by its sheer size and extravagance, the design innovations are sure to leave a lasting impression. Built about 12 years ago, the home spans two levels, both offering panoramic views across the manicured grounds and two of the property’s three lakes. There are two kitchens and multiple formal and informal living zones that will be perfect for any type of gathering. Complementing the four bedrooms are three bathrooms, including the palatial ensuite for the master bedroom. The set-up rivals the fi nest fi ve-star hotels. Testament to this is the inclusion of a lift as an alternative to the sweeping staircase. Other time-saving features include a ducted heating and vacuum system. The gorgeous grounds boast more than one hectare of lakes, making this grand estate a private lifestyle retreat with an overwhelming sense of serenity and beauty. Like many properties of this stature, “Bushy Park” is a working property, offering plenty of business potential. An enormous three-car garage is positioned under the roofl ine of the home, and there is offi ce space in the home and the many outbuildings. Two factory-style sheds total more than 1700 square metres offering plenty of storage for machinery and heavy vehicles. With the peninsula more accessible than ever, this enticing location is under an hour’s drive from Melbourne and, to capitalise on the lifestyle this area is famous for, wineries, beaches and fi ne dining are all close by.

The final countdown to digital-only TV has begun!

*Please note: switch off may occur earlier in some towns. Residents in these towns will be informed about the switchover dates. See the website for more information.

Melbourne and surrounding areas switch on 10 December 2013*

The analog TV switch off is happening on 10 December 2013*– and there’s no turning back. After this date you won’t see anything if you’re not ready for digital-only TV.

What do I have to do?Remember, to keep watching free-to-air TV shows, you’ll need either:• one set-top box or a digital TV recorder for each analog TV you use; or• a new TV with a built-in digital tuner.

Most importantly, you do not have to buy a new TV if you do not want to.

Most antennas and cabling should work after the digital switchover. However, if you have any concerns about your reception, you may consider asking an endorsed Antenna Installer to check your antenna and cabling.

If you have any other questions, or to find your nearest endorsed Antenna Installer, visit our website or call the Digital Ready Information Line.

Don’t put it off any longer. Get ready for digital TV today.

Foreshore belongs to allForeshore belongs to allIT is a disgrace that in future the shire council will deny families, children and grandchildren the enjoyment of Rosebud and Rye Christmas Carnivals beyond this year by refusing to extend the lease by more than four months when it previously suited the council to lease the sites for six years.

The carnival has been an iconic part of Rosebud for 60 years.

It is also very selfi sh of a few self-appointed members of a Rosebud-centric “loose alliance” who believe they speak on behalf of all peninsula residents to deny families and the broader Victorian community the pleasure of the carnival and foreshore by wanting to build the Rosebud pool on the foreshore.

If the pool is built inland at Rosebud Central shopping centre in Wannaeue Place, in what is the most central location in Rosebud, both groups can be accommodated.

It is not necessary for a massive pool, gym, hydrotherapy pool, and health and wellbeing centre to be built on our precious Port Phillip beach and foreshore, which is increasingly being threatened and diminished by coastal development.

There are more than 150 aquatic centres in Victoria located inland, which proves a beach location is not necessary.

Port Phillip’s beach and foreshore belongs to all Victorians, not just a select few in Rosebud.

Dr Alan Nelsen, president, Mornington Peninsula Ratepayers’

and Residents’ Association

Danger at workDanger at workWITH the festive season rapidly approaching and most Victorians looking forward to a well-earned summer break, it’s important that safety remains a priority in our workplaces.

The simple fact is that November and December are the most dangerous times of year in workplaces.

Last year seven people died as a result of workplace injuries in November-December, more than double the number of fatalities in any other two-month period. In 2011, nine people died in a six -week period just prior to Christmas.

As the end of the year approaches, people naturally start thinking about things other than work, which means safety may not be uppermost in their minds.

It’s also a busy time of year, especially in agriculture where the pre-Christmas harvest season and the “get the job done” culture can be particularly dangerous.

Many fatalities at this time of year involve skilled and experienced people doing routine tasks, so no-one can afford to take safety for granted.

Workplace safety is everyone’s business and we all need to pause and think about what we can do to prevent a tragedy.

Christmas should be a time for family and friends, not visiting hospital or mourning a loved one, so please take care.

Compiled by Matt VowellFrom the pages of the Mornington Standard, 22 November 1913 MR Mark Thornell was disappointed to fi nd that his horse was not in the paddock on Wednesday morning. Someone had taken it out through the wires, as the foot marks could easily be seen. Mr Thornell has placed the matter in the hands of the police. I understand that this is not the only one that is missing.

***ON Tuesday last, before Mr B. Baxter, J.P., a one-legged man, named Thorpe, who was arrested the day before by Constable McCallum, was sentenced to one month’s impris-onment on a charge of offensive behaviour. This makes Thorpe’s 59th conviction.

***MR and Mrs Hugh Farquhar Rob-ertson, who toured Britain and the continent for their honeymoon trip, are returning to Melbourne by the Otway.

***A EUCHRE party and dance will be held in the Frankston Mechanics’ Hall on Wednesday, 3rd December, under the auspices of the Brass Band, the proceeds to be devoted to the purchase of uniforms.

***A SOCIAL evening will be held on Saturday, 29th inst., in the Frankston Mechanics’ Hall, under the patronage of the local Branch of the Women’s National League. A good programme will be provided.

***CONSTABLE Montgomery, who

during last summer was stationed at Frankston to assist Constable McCal-lum during the busy months, arrived on Wednesday last, and he will again be stationed here during the summer.

***EIGHT cwt. of fi sh in one haul! This catch was not made by the Federal trawler, but by Messrs Burton Bros, one day last week, when, in one haul, they secured 22 immense “yellow tail,” averaging 40lbs each.

***THE fi nancial results of the concert given in Frankston by the Choral Society are to hand:- Receipts for advertisements, 10s 6d; for door and tickets, £7 9s; total, £7 19s 6d; expenditure - printing, £17s 6d; hall, £15s; pianist, £1 1s ; performers ex-penses, 10s 9d; total, £3 14s 3d. The profi ts were £4 5s 3d.

***A LARGE number attended the lantern lecture given after church on Sunday night last, by Rev G. A. Kitchen, in St. Paul’s Sunday School. On Sunday night next another lecture will be given. The other two lectures announced for December have been altered to November 30 and Decem-ber 7. An anthem will be rendered by the choir on Sunday evening.

***SOME good hauls of the wily schnap-per have been made during the week at Frankston. On Tuesday, Mr W. Gregory secured 69, and on the same day, Mr F. Burton accounted for about 80. Several smaller hauls were also made. On Wednesday, Mr F. Burton “struck it rich,” and secured a haul of 92. Other fi shermen have all been more or less lucky.

***MESSRS Brody and Mason will hold an auction sale this afternoon, on the ground, Mornington Road, of a complete campers’ outfi t, consisting of tents, piano, sideboard, duchesse chest, and sundries. The lot will be offered as a going concern, but if no satisfactory offer is received; will then be offered in lots. The sale will commence at 3.30 p.m. The sale is on account of the “Billikins” camp, who have disbanded.

***AT the meeting of the Frankston Branch of the White Ribbon Union, held at Miss Purves’ residence on

Wednesday’ afternoon, Mrs Twining (on her retirement as president) was presented with a handsome vase, as a slight recognition of her valuable services for the past 13 years, dur-ing which period she has fi lled the position of president to the branch. The presentation was made by Miss Purves, in a neat little speech, on be-half of the members, and was suitably responded to by Mrs Twining. Mrs Maucum was appointed president to the branch. Afternoon tea was then handed round, after which the pro-ceedings terminated.

***FAVORED by fi ne weather, a bazaar held in aid of the funds of St. Phil-lip’s Church, drew large crowds to the public hall in the afternoon and evening of Saturday last. Several boats brought about 70 visitors from the mainland, the largest quota be-ing contributed by Hastings. When the bazaar was opened to the public the display of good things was well calculated to untie the purse strings of the most frugal, and stood as a monument to the untiring labours of the committee of ladies who had all the arrangements in hand. As the day wore on, business became brisk, the various stall-holders vying with one another in their efforts to tempt from divers’ places all the stray coins concealed about the person of the unwary. The church funds will benefi t considerably as a consequence. Dur-ing the evening a musical programme was gone through, the principal items being songs by Misses Jones, Reid and Romeo and Mr J. Carmichael. Miss Romeo acted as accompanist. The Hastings Brass Band, under the

baton of Mr W. H. Prosser, rendered enlivening selections throughout the proceedings, and their presence was much appreciated. Rev. W. Burvill was a genial host, and those in charge of the various stalls were as follows:- Clothes, Mesdames McLardy and Walton; sweets and cordials, Misses McCormick, Gullifer and Grayden; cakes, Misses McFee and Cherrie; produce, Misses Kennon and Leeson; fancy, Misses Matthews and George; Post Offi ce, Miss McCormick; fi sh pond and dip, Misses H. Walton, Richards and Pryor; hoop-in, Mrs Reynolds and Mr Reardon; refresh-ments Misses Oswin and McCormick.

***LETTER to the editor - Sir, permit me, through your columns, to draw the attention of the ratepayers of Hastings to the existing state of af-fairs re the Hastings sanitary contract. I understand the agreement requires the contractor to make a round every seven days, but it has been circulated on good authority that that gentleman makes his rounds at intervals of eight, nine, or even ten days, or in other words, three rounds instead of four per 28 days, but I notice that he never forgets to charge for the fourth round, which is never made.

***I UNDERSTAND that Mrs Hodgins has bought a piece of land in front of the Methodist Church and intends to put a residence there.

***WE regret to state that Master Frank Odgers, eldest son of Mr and Mrs W. Odgers, is at present lying very seri-ously ill at his parent’s residence at Mornington.

Protect your family by planningahead this summer.

LETTERFROM THEPREMIER

As we enter another summer, fi re safety needs to be a priority for all Victorians and I encourage every household to update their fi re plans.People living on Melbourne’s fringe need to be especially careful.

If you live near a park, the bush or grassland, you also need to understand your fi re risk and be ready to act.

Last summer, a large, fast-moving grassfi re threatened Epping, Wollert, Kalkalo and Donnybrook, damaging properties and putting residents on high alert. The fi re was unexpected and a reminder that the fi re threat on Melbourne’s fringe is real.

This Fire Action Week (beginning Sunday November 17), fi nd out what to do if a fi re starts near your home or workplace, and get prepared.

If you live next to grassland you should have already cleared weeds and removed fi re-wood, rubbish and other fuel from around your property.

If a grassfi re starts, you need to act quickly and put two or three house blocks between you and the fi re. Avoid driving in a grassfi re because it may be smoky and hard to see, and traffi c jams and accidents are likely. Don’t try and get a closer look at a grassfi re – you will put yourself and others in danger.

If you don’t live directly next to grassland and a grassfi re starts, it is safer to stay where you are because it’s unlikely the fi re will spread past fences and houses.

In the event of a fi re, it is also important to wear appropriate clothing including long sleeves, long pants and sturdy footwear.

It is important to prepare in advance for fi re danger by talking to your household about what your plan is for fi re danger days.

For more planning and preparation information, or to check Fire Danger Ratings this summer, go to cfa.vic.gov.au, download the FireReady smartphone app, or call the Victorian Bushfi re Information Line on 1800 240 667.

FOOD & ENTERTAINMENT

By Stuart McCulloughWHEN you turn eighteen, nothing seems so important as getting your driver’s licence. The simple act of be-ing able to reverse park is the closest thing we have to a welcoming cer-emony for adulthood. Not that it’s all about driving. Granted, the ability to drive a car represents a level of free-dom that perfectly complements the coming of age. That’s so even when the car in question is a puke-green 1982 Daihatsu Charade. But in addi-tion to driving there’s also the matter of being able to attend a pub. Not that everyone gets their license exactly on turning eighteen.

I, for one, had been worried about my year 12 exams and had done noth-ing about learning how to drive aside from opening the doors and switch-ing cassettes in the tape deck – both of which I had almost mastered. I fi n-ished year 12 just about the same time as I hit my fi rst real milestone and, of course, all the people I went to school with were eager to go out. Turning up at the door of a licensed venue and expecting them to take your word that you’re over eighteen is something I now do with confi dence but, then, seemed to be a recipe for disaster. Be-ing the ‘pre-Internet’ age, recipes for disaster were still quite rare and could not simply be downloaded from the Jamie Oliver website. Accordingly, I had to use my passport.

It had been issued a few years ear-lier. I would later learn that photos for any offi cial document are intention-ally hideous but back then, was hor-rifi ed at the picture that graced my

passport. I looked so doleful and for-lorn. As though the thought of having to get on a plane was the most severe punishment my youthful mind could imagine. The picture was so bad, you could easily assume that had the cam-era pulled back a metre or so, it would have revealed a plaque between my hands with my prisoner number on it.

My friends had decided that we were going out. But rather than attend a local venue, we would be travelling to the city. Clearly, we were out of our minds. We knew nothing of the city, which meant that selecting a venue

was done pretty much at random. As fate would have it, we selected the Red Back Brewery in North Melbourne. Being from a small town, I was keen to ensure that I didn’t turn up look-ing like some kind of unsophisticated country bumpkin. For that reason, I decided to wear ‘the good shirt’.

Over the years, many shirts have held the esteemed title of ‘the good shirt’. There was the yellow one that made me look like B2’s stunt double. The undisputed title-holder for the years 1986 – 1988, however, was a purple paisley number that looked like

an acid fl ashback and induced imme-diate nausea in all who happened to gaze upon it. However, in the golden year of 1989, the ‘good shirt’ was a silk number with a scratchy brown pattern that I now refer to as ‘The Brown Hornet’. At the time, I thought it was wonderful. With the benefi t of a whole lot of hindsight, it was the kind of shirt that even APEC leaders would reject and almost singlehandedly en-sured my social isolation. Not that I knew that in 1989.

With my good shirt on and my passport tucked into the top pocket, I was ready. My friends picked me up and we began the epic journey that would take us from the Mornington Peninsula to the bustling city. A world of possibilities awaited us. However, once we arrived, it became apparent that a world of possibilities was, in fact, awaiting us at some other pub; as this one had nothing to offer other than strange tasting beer and an atmosphere that would make outer space seem welcoming.

It was dreadful. There were other people milling around, but they were all huddled in groups. Wearing the ‘Brown Hornet’, it was like having a force fi eld around me. We assumed that by the simple act of turning up, something incredible would happen. Instead, we just ended up standing around feeling awkward before decid-ing to call time and head back to Ty-abb. Frankly, you don’t need to make a hundred kilometre round-trip to feel uncomfortable. Such results can easily be obtained without the inconvenience of travel.

Having returned from my big adven-ture, I went to bed and thought little more about it. That is, until the wash-ing came out of the dryer and it be-came apparent that I had left my pass-port in the top pocket of the ‘Brown Hornet’. It now resembled some kind of forgery and was as good as ruined. The photo, which before had seemed unreasonably miserable, looked as if I’d just been caught in an unexpected rainstorm.

It was ironic. I didn’t need a passport to travel from Tyabb to the city, even if it did seem like a completely sepa-rate world. Having decided to take my passport in order to travel to Mel-bourne, I had ruined it in the process. Whilst many others would probably try and get a replacement, I took it as a sign and swore off overseas travel for the next fi ve years.

As for the ‘Brown Hornet’, I contin-ued to wear it for some time to come until it was replaced by a nifty little number I bought in a fi t of insanity at the Queen Victoria Market that was a little bit cowboy and little bit ‘bogan’. Despite the switch in style, it would prove to be equally effective at repel-ling other people. At the time I referred to it only as ‘the good shirt’ but now I like to think of it as my ‘Country and Western Suburbs’ shirt. It was the kind of shirt that was really only any use if you were called upon to attend a hoe-down at short notice. It was a circum-stance that never arose. Nevertheless, I wore it everywhere. Everywhere, that is, except the Red Back Brewery. [email protected]

HastingsscoreboardWESTERN PORT

PROVINCIALBy IT Gully Sorrento has some breathing space at the top of the MPCA Provincial lad-der after claiming an outright win over Rye.

Resuming at 0/92, chasing just 118 for a fi rst innings win, the Sharks fi -nally declared their innings at 4/198.

Nick Jewell added just three runs to his overnight total but fi nished with a half century, while Liam O’Connor fi nished not out on 38.

Jedd Flack wasn’t able to add to his overnight total of 36, while Leigh Po-holke contributed 31.

After being rolled for 118 in its fi rst innings, things got worse for the De-mons in their second dig when they were dismissed for 90.

Nick Davern tore through the Rye

batting line-up, claiming 4/32, Ryan O’Connor snared 3/24 to give him match fi gures of 7/45 and AJ King claimed 2/18 to give him fi ve for the match.

The Sorras needed just 12 runs to get the outright victory and move six points clear at the top of the ladder.

As predicted, Crib Point comfort-ably chased down the 182 set by Moo-rooduc in week one of their match.

And it was Luke Herrington who stole the show.

Coming in at three, Herrington made three runs more himself than the entire Ducs team.

In a masterful innings, Herrington clubbed 185, sharing a 109 partnership with Adam Kuelen (45).

The Pies fi nished on 5/315 after be-ing 2/40 at one stage.

The star all-rounder hit 19 fours and

nine sixes in his innings, which includ-ed two massive hits into Govenor Rd.

Langwarrin’s bowlers were at their best again on Saturday against Mt Eliza, bowling out the opposition for just 106.

Mal Coutts turned the game on its head when he took three quick wickets and fi nished the match with 3/46. This was on the back of the all-rounder’s 46 runs with the bat.

Andy Johnson had a trundle and snared 2/8 bowling his off-spinners, teenage left arm quick Matt Davie snared 2/16 and Dwayne Doig picked-up 2/27.

Tommy Baron was the only Mountie to offer any resistance with 31 runs.

Baxter got the job done as expected against Mt Martha.

Defending 9/246, Baxter rolled the Reds for just 111.

Darren Uccello was up to his old tricks, claiming 4/10, while Sam Wols-grove helped himself to 3/38.

Mitch Darville was the best of the Mt Martha bats with 35, while Brett Wilkinson hit 29.

The Reds lost their last seven wick-ets for just 46 runs.

In not so good news for Baxter, the in-form Adrian Mack broke down in his fourth over of the day.

Peninsula Old Boys got on the board with a 16-run start against Heatherhill.

After making 190 last week, Heath-erhill started extremely well with the ball, having the Old Boys in some early trouble at 3/47.

However, Eivion Bowen and Glenn Prendergast got things back on track with a 41-run partnership.

The Hills got back on top though and

had the Old Boys in trouble again at 7/130.

Justin Parkes (19) and Adam Gaili-tis (23), along with Adam Jones (14), were able to ensure there was some wag in the tail and get the Old Boys across the line. They fi nished on 206.

Daniel Woods had a day out with the ball for the Hills, bowling 16 overs and fi nishing with 5/51.

Long Island was punished by Mornington.

The Islanders resumed on 4/22 after bowling out the Doggies for 129 last week.

However, the Mornington bowlers stayed focused on day two and rolled the Islanders for 70. Scott Phillips top scored with 29.

For the Dogs, Luke Popov fi nished with 5/24 and Matt Foon was just as good claiming 4/37.

Sorrento opens up gap at the top

DISTRICTBy IT GullyBallam Park fi nds itself in familiar territory on the bot-tom of the MPCA District table after another shocking loss on Saturday, this time against Seaford.

Both teams were coming into the match without a victory in the 2013-14 season, and it was Seaford who notched up their fi rst win of the season.

After making 9/257 with the bat, Seaford was then able to roll the Knights for just 127.

Anthony Joel with an unbeaten 52, along with num-ber 11 batsman Mark Miller (34), were the only Knights batsmen to offer any kind of resistance.

Eight of the 11 batsmen failed to make it into double fi gures.

David Laing was the best of the Seaford bowlers with 4/33 from 12 overs while Mathew Herbert made it 10 wickets for the season with 3/29.

Pines fell 41 runs short of chasing down Somerville’s 236.

The fi nal score fl attered the Piners, who at one stage were 6/76.

Jake Prosser was the only recognised batsman to get amongst the runs with 48, while number 10 Pat Jack-son scored a half century and Nick Wilcox, batting at 11, made 25.

Jackson and Wilcox took the Piners from 9/124 to all out 195.

Pat Jackson was run out with four overs to play.Sam Delaney was at his best for the Eagles with 3/32

and Daniel Kelly and Russell Wilkes each claimed two scalps.

Delacombe Park continued on its merry way, easily accounting for Hastings.

Setting the Blues 269 for victory, even on the small Parkers’ ground, the total was always going to be tough to reach for the Blues.

Chris Brittain was at his absolute best for the Park-ers with the ball, ripping through the Blues and fi nishing

with 6/36. This was on the back of his 71 runs with the bat.

Shane Deal also got amongst the wickets, claiming 2/25.

Timmy Birch fl ew the batting fl ag for the Blues with 65 runs, while Luke Hewitt again led from the front and added 30 runs to his 3/55 in week one with the ball.

Boneo celebrated its second win of the season and now fi nds itself equal third on the ladder.

Boneo successfully tracked down the 182 runs re-quired to pick up the win against Carrum.

The visitor’s bowlers were at their fi nest last week and the batsmen stood up to the plate on Saturday.

After a shaky start where they lost both openers with the score on 14, Boneo knuckled down and the top order came to the fore.

Keeper Spencer Byatt batted patiently for his 59 and Ryan Jellie batted through the innings to fi nish unbeaten on 57. Jayden Sholl was also strong when he needed to be and hit 21 runs off 39 balls.

Boneo got the total after losing just fi ve wickets.Main Ridge easily accounted for Baden Powell.After bowling out the Braves for just 159 last week,

the Ridge then batted beautifully, eventually calling it quits with their score at 3/187.

MORE than 70 golf enthusiasts joined Australian golfi ng legend, Craig Parry and Deputy Mayor of Frankston, Cr Colin Hampton, at the Centenary Park Golf Course in Melbourne for the offi cial opening of the new Precision Fitting Centre and Driving Range on Monday 11 November.

Following the cutting of the ribbon to open the new state of the art golf technology centre, Craig Parry and Cr Hampton struck the fi rst balls from the facility. An 18-hole charity golf day followed with all proceeds being donated to Movember in support of men’s health.

Golf course operators and PGA professionals Steve Montgomerie and Warren Young said: “We are proud to partner with the Frankston Council to provide world class golf club fi tting and teach-

ing facilities, a fi rst for the Mornington Peninsu-la. Using the latest technology in swing and club diagnostics means we can improve any players’ game regardless of age or ability. We even put Craig Parry under the microscope and found that we could add further distance to his tee shots through fi tting a different shaft to his driver.”

Despite the windy conditions the charity golf event was a huge success, raising over $7,000 for Movember.

The new Performance Fitting Centre and prac-tice range is located at the Centenary Park Golf Course, McClelland Drive, Frankston, and is open to the public with club fi tting and lesson bookings by appointment. Contact the course on 9789 1480 for further details.

SUB-DISTRICTBy IT GullyONE of the Peninsula’s fi nest cricketers, Jason Nagel, almost single-handedly won Rosebud the weekend game against Carrum Downs.

However, he did have a little help from his 16-year-old son, Patrick.

The former league medal winner came to the crease at number nine after the Cougars had taken a team hat-trick and had the Buds on the ropes at 8/129. Chasing 194 for victory, the game looked gone for the Buds.

However, Jason Nagel was soon joined at the crease by his son, who was also in the First XI for the fi rst time.

Together, Jason and Patrick shared a 42-run partnership.

Jason then had the support of Jason Peirce, who was able to stick around long enough to ensure that the Buds got to 201 before Nagel was bowled by Carrum Downs’ Chamara Perera.

It was a memorable victory for the Buds and even more so for the Nagel boys.

Perera fi nished with 3/60 from 23 overs and Steven Worker claimed 3/50 from 25 overs.

Skye’s bowlers did a sensational job on Sat-urday defending their score of 144. Pearcedale resumed its innings at 0/7, however, lost wickets regularly and were eventually rolled for just 127.

Matt Cousland was the best of the Panther’s

bats with 29. The day belonged to the Skye bowl-ers. Ben Milano was the pick of the bowlers with 5/22. Leigh Smith and Paul Fillpone helped them-selves to two wickets each.

Tyabb tried gallantly to get the 275 set by Dromana in week one of their match but eventu-ally fell 34 runs short.

The Yabbies started quite well and Luke Rus made 77 in the middle order to give the home side a real chance. However, some key wickets followed and the Yabbies were playing catch up after that.

Dromana used just four bowlers for the after-noon. Andrew Thompson did the majority of the damage, bowling 15 overs and fi nishing with

5/37. David Timmer claimed 3/70.Balnarring and Red Hill went toe-to-toe in a

one-day game and it was the Hillmen who fi n-ished on top.

The Hillmen batted fi rst and scrambled to 112 off 38.4 overs. It didn’t look like a match-winning total.

Riley Shaw top scored for Red Hill with 31 while James Wisken was the best of the Balnar-ring bowlers with 4/18.

Red Hill’s bowlers did a great job and bowled out the home side for just 90.

Luke Toy was the pick of the Hillmen bowlers with 4/25. Brenton Taylor top scored for Balnar-ring with 34.

HASTINGS CCBy Greg BradshawTHE Firsts travelled to Delacombe Park knowing they would have to bat well to chase their opponents’ 9/268 from last week.

Both opening batsmen were back in the sheds by the 9th over, 2/20, which was how Delacombe started its innings.

Jake Hewitt, batting at three, put his head down and scored a solid 30 but didn’t receive much support the other end. When he was dismissed, Hastings was looking down the barrel at 6/91 at tea.

The evergreen Tim Birch and young Matt Foy then combined for a 47-run partnership in 80 minutes before Foy fell for a patient 14 off 77 balls. Birch continued on to be last man out for 64, facing 129 balls against a quality attack.

Hastings fi nished with 183 off 78 overs but paid the price for dropped catches when Delacombe batted.

Man of the match was Tim Birch.The Seconds had the same sort of run chase as

the Firsts and didn’t fare much better. Wickets fell at regular intervals with only two partnerships over 25 runs. Chris Dalmau top-scored with 40 while fi ve others reached double fi gures but failed to better the 17 from Ben King. The last three batters put on 50 runs to get Hastings to 157, avoiding the follow on. This was a disappointing result.

The Fourths travelled to the neighbours Crib Point and batted fi rst. Scott Williams 29 and Glenn Jansz 54 combined for a brisk opening partnership of 78 in only 13 overs.

Stuart Burrows (61) and Brendan Jenkinson (77) produced some excellent shot-making as they compiled a 112-run partnership in only 18 overs. Steven Robb hit a quick 34no as Hastings compiled 6/282 off its 40 overs.

Crib Point lost two early wickets, 2/9, before a 99-run partnership took the score to 3/108 in the

24th over. Their captain Manny Beasley smashed an imposing 99 runs but when he was out, it was 6/123. Matt Sawosz then confounded the tail and fi nished with brilliant fi gures of 5/23 off 5.3 overs. Robb took 2/15, Andrew Finn 1/21 and Stephen Lewis 1/37. Crib Point made 141.

Man of the match was Matt Sawosz.The Under-16s played Frankston YCW. Matt

Foy (18) and Mason Mail opened the batting, putting on 45. It was 2/45 in the 9th over when Aaron King joined Mail and they pasted the bowlers all over Barclay Oval, putting together a 112-run partnership with King making 51.

At this stage Mail was on 70 when Sean Hewitt joined him and with only 11 more scoring shots, Mason reached his maiden century, retiring on 101, which included 16 fours. Hewitt made 19 as Hastings reached 5/218 off its 45 overs, which sets up a task for a strong YCW batting line-up.

The Under-14s travelled to Rosebud and bowled fi rst. Rosebud collapsed to be 7/37 after only 18 overs. The next pair batted well, combining for a 65-run partnership, 8/102, before the last couple got Rosebud to 9/132 off its 40 overs.

Wickets were shared around with Bayde Wilson taking 2/6, Corbin Overton 2/26, Alex Walters 1/1 off 6 tidy overs, Shelby Lothian-Burdett 1/7, Harrison Jansz 1/10, Jackson Coles 1/21 and Ryan McNamara 1/23.

The Under-12s played Peninsula Old Boys, which chose to bat fi rst. After an imposing start, 2/60 off 10 overs, Hastings’ bowlers took the next eight wickets for only 40 runs as POB was dismissed for 100 in the 26th over. Patty Wilson took 2/3, Lachie Robertson 2/9, Thomas Finn 2/33, Matt Dodd 1/3 and Thomas Buckley 1/10 plus three catches. Hastings reached 1/23 off its 9 overs at stumps with Wilson 13no.

Upcoming function: Saturday’s family trivia night at the club starts at 7.30pm, $15 for adult, children free.

CRIB POINT CCBy The PrezAFTER two away losses in a row, Crib Point’s Firsts welcomed the chance to return to the home ground to play Moorooduc and get back on the winner’s list in Provincial Division.

On a gloomy day with plenty of cloud cover, captain Luke Herrington lost the toss and was happy to be put in to the fi eld. It quickly proved to be a good toss to lose as Herrington made early breakthroughs picking up the fi rst two wickets to have Moorooduc in trouble at 2/11.

From there the game moved along quite slowly, thanks in part to tight bowling from slow medium bowler Brad Davidson and the off-spin of Warren Herrington. It wasn’t until after the tea break with Moorooduc at 4/129 that the big wicket of competition gun Bob Wilson came courtesy of a direct hit runout from Davidson.

The wicket seemed to spur on Crib and what looked to be a good total in the making was quickly brought to a halt as Moorooduc was bowled out for 182 in the 76th over.

While Herrington ended up with the tidy fi gures of 2/12 from 6 overs, it was Davidson 3/49 and Warren Herrington 4/57 who did the damage.

After Crib nervously negotiated the fi nal 4 overs of the day ending on 0/10, the teams returned on Saturday, with Moorooduc looking for quick wickets and Crib eager to chase down the small total.

It wasn’t the ideal start with the bat as Henry Dolphin was the fi rst go, trapped leg before for 7. He was followed soon after by Matthew Blake (24) who nicked an edge to the keeper. Both openers were back in the sheds and Crib was 2/40.

With a solid partnership required, Herrington was joined at the crease by Luke Chapple and they aggressively took the battle to the bowlers,

moving the score quickly to 101 before Chapple spooned a delivery to short cover and was out for 19.

Herrington did not break stride and continued to plunder the Moorooduc attack to all parts of ground and beyond, with two sixes clearing the Governors Rd end fence and one ending up in the nearby tennis court.

After Chapple went, Herrington shared in a 60-run stand with Neil Clarke (16) and a 109-run partnership with Adam Keulen (45) to steer Crib Point to victory. In the process, he not only brought up his second Provincial Firsts century, but had his sights set fi rmly on the club’s record of 229 before he was caught on the boundary looking to clear the pickets for the 10th time for a dominant 186.

It was an important win for Crib, which fi nished the day on 5/315 from 66 overs, with pre-Christmas wins a must.

Seconds: The captain lost the toss and Moorooduc elected to bat.

Crib took control from the outset, snaring early wickets and having Moorooduc reeling at 4/32, with Will Lanigan picking up 2/17 from 14 tidy overs. He was well supported by Dave Eaton who took two wickets from his 10 overs.

From that point the Ducs were hard to contain on the small Moorooduc ground as they compiled 264. Veteran “Pistol” Pete Mereszko was the main wicket-taker with 3/36 with Shaun Blake, Mark Cairns and Shaun Cairns picking up one wicket apiece.

Things needed to go well for Crib with the bat, but thanks to fi ve “LBW” decisions, it was not to be. Wickets fell at regular intervals and partnerships did not come. Crib were dismissed for 154 with only captain Michael Cook (42), Mereszko (30) and Blake (21) showing any fi ght.
