BEROWRA FROM THE AIR<br />

It’s not often we get to see our home from such a perspective, but thanks to Voytek Lasek, Manager of Travel by<br />

Design in Pennant Hills (www.travelbydesign.com.au) – who was flying back into Sydney on his way home from China –<br />

we have a rare glimpse of Berowra and surrounds as the birds see it. It’s quite amazing how close to the sea we are!<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Bush</strong> <strong>Telegraph</strong> <strong>Weekly</strong> – Thursday 27 June 2013


Mountain bike rider injured<br />

A 38 year old Berowra man was riding<br />

his mountain bike after work on Thursday<br />

13 th <br />

the end of Rosemead Road, Hornsby.<br />

At about 5.25pm a husband and wife<br />

were bush walking about 2km into the<br />

trail when they found the mountain biker<br />

lying on the ground injured and in a lot<br />

of pain. <strong>The</strong> woman ran to get help while<br />

her husband stayed with the biker. About<br />

6pm police and ambulance personnel<br />

arrived and stabilised the rider. <strong>The</strong> rider<br />

was airlifted to the Royal North Shore<br />

Hospital. His condition was serious but<br />

stable. His injuries include lacerations to<br />

his left knee, extensive cuts and bruising<br />

to his head and face. His helmet<br />

appeared to have been ripped from his<br />

head as a result of the fall. Observations<br />

at the scene showed a slight rise to<br />

a rocky area with some gouge marks<br />

about 11m long in the soft sand with the<br />

rider found another 4m further on.<br />

A big thank-you to the two bushwalkers<br />

who found the rider and called for help.<br />

It could have been much later until the<br />

male was found due to the length of the<br />

track and approaching darkness.<br />

What happens when the BEROWRA WATERS<br />

‘RIVER RATS’ borrow a FIRE TANKER<br />

A crew from Berowra Waters RFB<br />

‘borrowed’ a tanker to compete<br />

in the annual Hornsby District<br />

Truck Exercise held in and around<br />

Berowra on Saturday 15th June.<br />

What made this training session<br />

different is that the River Rats were<br />

on land rather than on a boat using<br />

<br />

renamed as a ‘Berowra Waters’<br />

<br />

Under the guidance of Deputy<br />

Captain Stuart McMonnies and<br />

Dave Kissick, the<br />

Rats crew competed against other<br />

land based Rural Fire brigades<br />

<br />

<br />

<strong>The</strong> crew had to adjust their<br />

strategic thinking from tidal<br />

movements, moorings and other<br />

<br />

operations, to that of driving and<br />

<br />

<br />

exercises were largely similar to<br />

those incidents undertaken in a river<br />

based situation. Save for changing<br />

the crew was on more than even<br />

terms with the truck based brigades.<br />

good time, they did not want to hand<br />

<br />

Berowra Waters Ferry. Today, this is carefully maintained, sealed, road with boom gates to<br />

ensure people don’t accidentally end up in the creek. In the past though, this was a narrow,<br />

rough dirt road, strewn with rocks. You can even see the ‘hand crank’ for the old hand wound<br />

<strong>The</strong> Future of<br />

Financial Advice –<br />

what will reforms<br />

mean to you<br />

<br />

talk in the media about the Future of Financial<br />

<br />

Labor Government in 2010 as an initiative to<br />

<br />

<br />

effect in July this year.<br />

<strong>The</strong> reforms are a welcome opportunity to<br />

highlight the importance of professional<br />

advice to support Australians to achieve their<br />

<br />

Reinforcing best interest<br />

One area of the reforms cements the obligation<br />

for advisers to put the best interests of the client<br />

above all else. <strong>The</strong> reforms help by adding a<br />

new and legally binding duty of care that may<br />

be compared with other codes of conduct in<br />

professions such as medicine and law.<br />

FoFA disclosure statements<br />

<strong>The</strong> FoFA reforms have established a protocol<br />

for the disclosure of ongoing service fees<br />

between adviser and client, in a more<br />

formal way.<br />

In practical terms, if a person has an adviser<br />

their ongoing fee arrangement will now include<br />

an annual statement of fees and services.<br />

From our perspective:<br />

While these reforms will increase our<br />

administrative work, like many peers within our<br />

industry we welcome the opportunity to more<br />

<br />

clients and the value we provide.<br />

Quality advisers have always been committed<br />

to fair, open and honest fee structures for<br />

advice. You should always have any fees and<br />

payment options discussed and agreed with<br />

you before any advice or services are provided.<br />

<strong>The</strong> FoFA reforms are an important milestone<br />

<br />

advice but ultimately any such reform is simply<br />

a way for industry regulators to set a minimum<br />

standard. Quality advisers should always strive<br />

to deliver further value.<br />

up an obligation free consultation,<br />

Jewellery is in my Blood…<br />

Hello … my name is Shaye Seifert.<br />

I work with my father and grandfather, in a jewellery shop called<br />

Kurt & Daniel Seifert Jewellers<br />

of a four year apprenticeship.<br />

I left Asquith Boys High School at the end of year 10 to pursue my goal of<br />

becoming a master Jeweller. I have always loved working with my hands;<br />

creating something new and different.<br />

With the help of both my father and grandfather I know that one day I will<br />

achieve my goal as a master Jeweller. I enjoy being creative and seeing the<br />

happiness on the faces of<br />

clients for whom I have created<br />

a special piece of jewellery.<br />

To continue in my father’s<br />

footsteps and his father before<br />

him, I look forward to expanding<br />

the family jewellery business.<br />

Come in and let’s have a chat<br />

about what I can create for you.<br />

STATE BUDGET BOOSTS FOR HORNSBY<br />

State Liberal Member for Hornsby<br />

Matt Kean<br />

budget as a huge win for the Hornsby<br />

community following a big investment<br />

in local infrastructure projects.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> NSW Government has allocated<br />

over $40.6 million in the budget for<br />

Stage One of the redevelopment at<br />

Hornsby Hospital,” Mr Kean said.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Government has also released<br />

vital funds for the construction of<br />

Hornsby Hospital’s acute mental<br />

health unit with a further $450,000<br />

being set aside over the coming<br />

<br />

<strong>The</strong> total cost of the mental health<br />

<br />

million when complete.<br />

“Residents in Galston and Cowan<br />

<br />

million has been allocated for the two<br />

suburbs’ priority sewerage programs,”<br />

Matt Kean said.<br />

Mr Kean has also secured local<br />

transport infrastructure funding with an<br />

investment of $4 billion over the next<br />

four years to be spent on the North<br />

West Rail Link.<br />

“We are on track to have tunnel<br />

boring machines in the ground next<br />

year for the North West Rail Link,”<br />

Mr Kean said. “This will alleviate<br />

<br />

in Dural and provide a much needed<br />

link for the people of Cherrybrook<br />

with the Macquarie Business Park<br />

Precinct and the city.”<br />

<strong>The</strong> budget will also fund the<br />

<br />

sector plan to complete the missing<br />

<br />

M2 motorway with a contribution<br />

of $400m.<br />

Other funding commitments will see<br />

$5.6 million spent on the Hornsby<br />

Courthouse upgrade, $10.4 million<br />

spent on local road upgrades<br />

and $250,000 for an upgrade to<br />

Hornsby’s Clarke Road Special<br />

School.<br />

TAX TIME: Are you ready to lodge<br />

<strong>The</strong> silly season is almost upon us again!<br />

having to face completing another Income<br />

Tax Return.<br />

No need for angst, we can make the task very<br />

<br />

experienced and are Registered Tax Agents.<br />

We offer advice on investment property, GST,<br />

William Mills<br />

tax return preparation. We also guide business<br />

Getting that ‘Homely Feel’<br />

In my last article I talked about the<br />

<br />

the effect your ‘street appeal’ can<br />

have on your home. Once you have<br />

<br />

it is vital to keep that effect going<br />

through your whole home.<br />

Some easy tips to get your home<br />

<br />

• have the carpets and curtains<br />

professionally cleaned<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

• only keep essentials on your<br />

kitchen bench<br />

• keep furniture to a practical<br />

<br />

a sense of space, too much can<br />

make a room feel cramped and<br />

<br />

• touch up any spots or scuff marks<br />

on walls and doors<br />

Having the inside of your home live up<br />

to the impression the outside made<br />

will go a long way towards a buyer<br />

having an emotional connection with<br />

your property and paying a premium<br />

price for your home.<br />

BUSH TELE LETTERS<br />

Dear BT,<br />

I think it is time for Berowra to have a lesson on<br />

Council Cleanup Etiquette.<br />

Like most Berowra residents, I put discarded<br />

items on the nature strip in a neat and tidy pile.<br />

<strong>The</strong> correct etiquette for the roaming tiprats<br />

who wish to sort through my discarded items<br />

is to leave them in a neat pile after they<br />

have rummaged through them. It is bad<br />

etiquette to chuck stuff all over the footpath<br />

and leave a mess.<br />

What I put on the nature strip outside my<br />

boundary is fair game – what I have inside my<br />

boundary line is mine. It is bad etiquette to cross<br />

my boundary line and take items out of the front<br />

garden (it is in fact, theft). <strong>The</strong> BBQ plates and<br />

grill I put in my front garden were there ready to<br />

be degreased and returned to my BBQ. <strong>The</strong>y<br />

were not put there for some thieving tiprat to take!<br />

Andrew Tuft, Berowra<br />

Dear BT,<br />

Thank you for advertising the Pleasant Sunday<br />

I’d share this photo<br />

towards <strong>The</strong> Fullerton Hotel and the completely<br />

index) was 172. By 10pm last night it had risen<br />

to 321, deemed hazardous and everyone was<br />

encouraged to be indoors.<br />

<strong>The</strong> smoke haze is caused by illegal slash and<br />

<br />

particles which enter the blood stream and affect<br />

in particular asthmatics, the elderly and children.<br />

We are now on our fourth day of this, eyes are<br />

HEALTH AND BEAUTY<br />

PRICELESS<br />

PEARLS<br />

BY RALPH ESTHERBY<br />

8 months, 3 weeks and 2 days…<br />

That was how long it took before the<br />

problem emerged and I had to do<br />

something about it. What happened<br />

was that I failed to take into account<br />

that the plaster I was using was not<br />

designed to stick to a non-porous<br />

surface and whilst it did its best and<br />

held on for as long as it could (over<br />

8 months), the vibration of the house<br />

eventually was enough for the bond to<br />

be broken and for the plasterwork to<br />

come down.<br />

<strong>The</strong> problem was not too hard to fix;<br />

all that was needed was the right glue<br />

and a bit of patching but it really did<br />

make me think about the quality of the<br />

workmanship that we are seeing in the<br />

current spate of renovation shows.<br />

I have observed over the last couple<br />

of months complete houses renovated<br />

in a single week – fantastic efforts put<br />

in but lots of corners seeming to be<br />

cut. I have watched people lay tiles<br />

and grout them on the same day; I<br />

have watched people paint walls with<br />

no sealer and no time to dry between<br />

coats. I have seen people painting<br />

whilst surrounded by others sanding, I<br />

have watched a number of small issues<br />

being concealed by very impressive<br />

surface ‘dressings’ but I wonder how<br />

long it will be until what has happened<br />

below the surface makes its mark.<br />

It only takes one small omission to<br />

guarantee a future failure. All of the<br />

hardware products have directions<br />

written on the side and I have learnt<br />

from impatient experience that if you<br />

don’t pay attention you are headed<br />

for a problem. If you don’t wait for 24<br />

hours then the finish will be poor, if you<br />

grout before the glue is dry it will all<br />

end up cracking, if you don’t wait for<br />

the waterproof membrane to cure then<br />

your shower will leak…and so on.<br />

I wonder what problems will emerge in<br />

these houses and units which have had<br />

so much effort put in I wonder what<br />

will crack, what will fall down and what<br />

will need to be rebuilt in the future<br />

Jesus told a story of a man who built<br />

his house on the sand, everything was<br />

fine till the storm came and (of course)<br />

it collapsed…my question for you is<br />

‘what have you built your life upon’ If<br />

something is lacking under the surface<br />

it will eventually show itself. So maybe<br />

it is time to renovate<br />

HEEL PAIN<br />

“It is not necessary to<br />

put up with HEEL PAIN,”<br />

says Mrs Chard<br />

PODIATRIST.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re are several causes of heel<br />

pain, the most common being<br />

PLANTAR FASCIITIS<br />

Plantar Fasciitis is simply inflammation<br />

of the big strong band on the bottom<br />

of the foot (the plantar fascia).<br />

Symptoms usually begin as a ‘stone<br />

bruise’ type of pain, increasing to<br />

chronic pain, especially first thing in<br />

the morning or after rest.<br />

This kind of pain is easily treated by<br />

realigning the foot and leg, which<br />

reduces the trauma, allowing the<br />

injured foot to repair.<br />

Federal MP Philip Ruddock says the grants are particularly looking to target<br />

linguistically diverse groups, people living with a disability, certain small<br />

businesses and regional communities.<br />

“Grants of between $1,000 and $25,000 will be made available and I think<br />

it is worth taking a look at www.ourneighbourhood.com.au to check eligibility<br />

conditions,” Mr Ruddock said.<br />

Applications close on Friday, 28th June and more information<br />

is also available from any Australia Post outlet.<br />

with a purple Cancer Council shirt at the ‘home’ of Relay for Life, Rofe Park last Friday.<br />

CLUB NEWS<br />

<strong>The</strong> Hornsby Ku-ring-gai<br />

PCYC has a new sports court<br />

and a freshly painted club<br />

all ready for Summer Futsal<br />

competition. With age groups<br />

starting from U/8’s to<br />

Open Age,<br />

Futsal is one of the fastest<br />

growing sports in the world. It is<br />

played in over 100 countries and<br />

boasts millions of players around<br />

the world.<br />

Futsal games are usually fastpaced,<br />

with players receiving<br />

more touches and are constantly<br />

placed in demanding decision<br />

making, limited space situations<br />

that they would face on a greatly<br />

reduced scale playing 11-a side<br />

outdoor soccer. <strong>The</strong> sport is a<br />

great skill developer, demanding<br />

quick reflexes, fast thinking, and<br />

pinpoint passing, it is not only<br />

essential for player development<br />

but also extremely fun for all to<br />

play. Enter a team or as an<br />

individual.<br />

TAX REFUNDS<br />

INSTANTLY – 2013<br />

TAX HOT TIPS<br />

With Tax Time now here, it’s time<br />

to look at how to make your tax<br />

return as painless as possible and to<br />

maximize your refund for the next<br />

financial year, according to Carla<br />

Cassano at Instant Tax Service.<br />

Carla suggests these simple tips to<br />

ensure your maximum return:<br />

If you use your car for work purposes<br />

and keep a log book for 12 weeks then<br />

the deductions can be thousands<br />

If your income is under $31,920 and<br />

you contribute $500 post tax into your<br />

super the government will match it<br />

dollar for dollar.<br />

If you make a capital gain this year<br />

then you can reduce CGT by selling<br />

non-performing shares that you may be<br />

holding.<br />

You can contribute up to $25,000 per<br />

year into super and it will be taxed at<br />

15 per cent<br />

If you are expecting that you will have<br />

a lower income next year then why not<br />

prepay interest for up to 12 months in<br />

advance before year end on your rental<br />

property or margin loan and reduce<br />

your higher income this year.<br />

With the ATO increasing their audit<br />

activity it is important to keep your<br />

receipts. <strong>The</strong> ATO will be paying close<br />

attention to high level of claims.<br />

If you earn less than $10,800 then your<br />

spouse can put up to $3,000 into your<br />

super fund and they will receive a $540<br />

rebate in tax<br />

Small businesses will be able to claim<br />

depreciable assets costing less than<br />

$6500<br />

Small businesses will also be able to<br />

claim an immediate $5,000 write off<br />

for the cost of any motor vehicle<br />

For more information, on how to<br />

maximize your refund, visit a tax expert<br />

such as Carla Cassano at Instant Tax<br />

Service.<br />

Remember, they can advance your<br />

tax refund on the same day that it’s<br />

prepared. <strong>The</strong>re is no need to wait for<br />

the ATO to send the cheque in the mail<br />

weeks later.<br />

As the name suggests, Instant Tax<br />

Service can advance your refund<br />

instantly, its that simple.<br />

What’s even better is their accounting<br />

fee starts from as little as $90 plus GST,<br />

but by presenting the $20 coupon in<br />

the <strong>Bush</strong> <strong>Telegraph</strong> its even cheaper to<br />

get your taxes done.<br />

questions to call on<br />
