on Meadowbank TAFE site<br />

An exuberant Ryde MP Victor Dominello with Premier Gladys Berejiklian<br />

at Meadowbank yesterday to announce the new Meadowbank Education<br />

Precinct. <strong>TWT</strong> EXCLUSIVE on-the-spot PHOTO.<br />

Meadowbank TAFE will be transformed into the State’s first technology focused TAFE<br />

college together with a new K-12 school.<br />

Premier Gladys Berejiklian and Ryde MP Victor<br />

Dominello yesterday unveiled plans for the new<br />

education facilities which will include a new<br />

primary school, high school and a revitalised<br />

Meadowbank TAFE.<br />

“We are investing in a world class education<br />

precinct in Meadowbank to cater for the needs<br />

of students at a range of stages in their lives”<br />

the premier said.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> surrounding area is renowned as a<br />

leading technology hub and it makes sense to<br />

put technology front and centre of the revitalised<br />

TAFE site”, she said.<br />

in his craft of building and carpentry. Yvonne also<br />

worked in the bank as an Investment Manager but<br />

now enjoys her time with friends and family and<br />

cooking up traditional Balkan food. Both Tony and<br />

Yvonne have fond memories of family holidays at<br />

Brunswick Heads and their greatest joys in life are<br />

their two grandchildren Georgia and Anthony. <strong>The</strong>y<br />

love spending precious time with them and being<br />

a prominent, positive influence in their lives. Tony<br />

and Yvonne are always there to lend a hand and will<br />

“we are so proud of the life you have made together<br />

and the home of love, happiness and wonderful<br />

memories you have shared and created for us all.”<br />

Elizabeth Mullens was born on<br />

16th May, 1925 at Lisdale (near<br />

Wallerawang) and has a sister Irene.<br />

Elizabeth’s mother Helen was born<br />

in Scotland and she immigrated to<br />

Australia early last century where she<br />

found work as a secretary in Sydney.<br />

Elizabeth’s father was Australian and<br />

worked in the coal mines and had a<br />

passion for race horses. Elizabeth<br />

remembers that he had stables and a<br />

very big vegetable garden.<br />

Elizabeth met her husband in<br />

Lisdale. Lloyd was riding a draught<br />

horse past her house which was<br />

galloping down the road at full speed<br />

to go home. Elizabeth thought he was<br />

showing off but Lloyd later admitted<br />

that in reality he was just holding on<br />

for dear life.<br />

Living in a country town there were<br />

social activities including dances and<br />

tennis games where Elizabeth met up<br />

with Lloyd again but at a much more<br />

leisurely pace. <strong>The</strong>y were married<br />

on August 2nd 1947 and at first lived<br />

in a tent while Lloyd worked in the<br />

mines.<br />

daughter Janette was born in 1953.<br />

Elizabeth and Lloyd continued to<br />

live in Wallerawang until about 1957<br />

when they moved to North Ryde.<br />

It was here that Lloyd, who was a<br />

bricklayer by trade, built the house<br />

that remains the family home to this<br />

day.<br />

Eldest daughter Sandra met her<br />

Husband Terry and married in 1971.<br />

Sandra and Terry have 2 beautiful<br />

daughters being Leonie and Kim.<br />

<strong>2018</strong> Northern Districts<br />

Local Business Awards<br />

Time’s running out to nominate for Local<br />

Business Awards<br />

Nothing shows a business how<br />

much their efforts are appreciated<br />

by customers than being nominated<br />

for an award.<br />

Precedent Productions Managing<br />

Director (and Local Business<br />

Awards founder) Steve Loe,<br />

said one of the best ways<br />

customers could show<br />

their gratitude for<br />

exceptional service<br />

and products was<br />

to nominate their<br />

favourite businesses<br />

for a Northern<br />

Districts Local<br />

Business Award.<br />

“Business people<br />

are always grateful<br />

to receive a smile and<br />

a thank you from customers,”<br />

he said.<br />

“But spreading the word and<br />

helping their business to prosper<br />

is the best gift a business person<br />

can receive<br />

“Being a finalist or winner in the<br />

awards brings with it great publicity<br />

that can boost their business.”<br />

Time is running out to nominate<br />

outstanding businesses in the <strong>2018</strong><br />

Northern Districts Local Business<br />

Awards.<br />

Nominations close on Tuesday<br />

July 3.<br />

Everyone who nominates a business<br />

will be in the running to win a<br />

Nespresso KitchenAid Coffee Machine.<br />

Mr Loe said he had been amazed<br />

by the huge number of nominations<br />

already received.<br />

“It just goes to show the great<br />

regard that the Northern Districts<br />

community has for its local businesses,”<br />

he said.<br />

“Not only that, the businesses<br />

who are nominate<br />

in knowing that their<br />

hard work is appreciated.<br />

“Every finalist in<br />

the Local Business<br />

Awards receives a<br />

certificate, while category<br />

winners receive<br />

a trophy.<br />

“I love seeing how<br />

proudly these certificates<br />

and trophies are displayed,<br />

and business people have told me<br />

that they always receive congratulations<br />

from customers.<br />

“Not only that, many report that<br />

their certificates and trophies have<br />

helped to attract new business.<br />

Update on how we’re supporting<br />

hard working Aussies<br />

Tax relief to encourage and reward working Australians: Our<br />

recently legislated Personal Income Tax plan will ensured 70,713<br />

low and middle income taxpayers in Bennelong will immediately<br />

get tax relief in the next financial year.<br />

This is a win for working Australians who want to get ahead.<br />

You will also soon have the certainty that when you earn more,<br />

when you get a pay rise or work more hours, you won’t face ever<br />

increasing tax rates. Your income is your money. You earned it.<br />

You deserve to keep more of it.<br />

Better child care: We are making child care more accessible<br />

and affordable - providing the greatest level of assistance for<br />

those that need it most. On 2 July, our new child care system will<br />

come into place, with 6,822 local families in Bennelong standing<br />

to benefit from our reforms.<br />

Fair Funding for Schools: <strong>The</strong> Government is providing more<br />

money for our schools so they can deliver better results for our<br />

children. Funding for Public, Independent and Catholic schools<br />

in Bennelong will continue to increase substantially. <strong>The</strong> model<br />

is unbiased, with no ‘special deals’, and framed around Gonski’s<br />

‘needs based system’. It’s a system I’m proud to have supported.<br />

Secure Hospital and Health Funding: We are fully funding<br />

a new five year hospital agreement, which will see NSW public<br />

hospitals receive over $39.5 billion over the five years to 2024-<br />

25, delivering an additional $8.94 billion in funding compared to<br />

the previous 5 years. This is on top of record funding for health,<br />

Medicare, medicines and disability services.<br />

Australian values<br />

and decency<br />

Dear Sir,<br />

Thank the “Great Red<br />

Kangaroo” for people like<br />

Tony Ikonomou who speak<br />

up for Australian values and<br />

decency.<br />

<strong>The</strong> mass immigration,<br />

over-population, over-medication<br />

and over-concentration<br />

of media in the country<br />

is an abomination against<br />

everyone who fought for and<br />

built this country.<br />

This collision between<br />

Government and Business<br />

must be stopped if we are<br />

to retain the very ideals and<br />

way of life which makes us<br />

unique and who we are.<br />

Aussies grow up in houses<br />

with backyards. Not in B-<br />

Grade “Dog Kennels” built<br />

along already clogged tributary<br />

roads by private and<br />

foreign developers, knocking<br />

down beautiful well built<br />

homes (described by real<br />

estate agents as ‘Knock-<br />

Downs’) and local landmarks<br />

and parkland.<br />

This concerted push to<br />

fascism by both Labour and<br />

Liberal Party traitors (party<br />

being the operative word<br />

and many whose families<br />

ironically and tragically came<br />

to Australia to escape fascist<br />

Europe, eg, Gladys) can only<br />

result in a total denigration of<br />

our country, our suburbs and<br />

our rights.<br />

<strong>The</strong> banning of press at<br />

public meetings, the sale of<br />

Letters to the Editor<br />

utilities and assets and the<br />

push for an orwellian ‘cashless’<br />

society are all indicators<br />

and signs of impending<br />

loss of freedom of speech<br />

and disaster.<br />

Wake up my friends before<br />

they close all the local bank<br />

branches.<br />

JOHN ADAMS<br />

Denistone East<br />

Shining beacon<br />

of truth<br />

Dear Sir,<br />

Thank you, Mark Newman,<br />

for being a shining<br />

beacon of truth, tolerance<br />

and humanity within a sea<br />

of negativity, ignorance and<br />

fear.<br />

<strong>The</strong> recent suggestion<br />

from Mr Ikonomou that you<br />

would be fuming and ranting<br />

at each of his, and other<br />

contributors, misguided outbursts<br />

couldn’t be further<br />

from how I picture you.<br />

In fact, I have quite the<br />

opposite view and would be<br />

(pleasantly) surprised if there<br />

wasn’t some vile and childish<br />

rebuttal of your calm and<br />

measured words here in this<br />

very edition.<br />

I think you speak, certainly<br />

far more eloquently than I,<br />

for the vast majority of readers<br />

here – at least I hope so.<br />

A real debate on<br />

climate change<br />

Dear Sir,<br />

Slowly the Western world<br />

is facing up to the real possibility<br />

that the catastrophe<br />

that was supposed to lie<br />

in wait for us, as a result of<br />

our use of fossil fuels, might<br />

have been over-egged, and<br />

that climate change may<br />

not even be accessible to<br />

human action, let alone<br />

caused by it.<br />

Germany is having trouble<br />

with its push to make alternative<br />

sources the core of its<br />

electricity production.<br />

China has stopped subsidising<br />

solar panels.<br />

A newly elected provincial<br />

government in Ontario is set<br />

to wipe out carbon-pricing<br />

rules.<br />

<strong>The</strong> UK has seen two<br />

weeks of nil power from its<br />

offshore wind turbines. And<br />

in the USA there has been a<br />

public debate between two<br />

proponents for each side:<br />

Michael Mann of the hockey<br />

stick and David Titley, a meteorologist<br />

formerly of the US<br />

Navy, for the warmists, and<br />

Judith Curry, well known to<br />

sceptics, and Patrick Moore,<br />

former President of Greenpeace<br />

Canada, for the pragmatists,<br />

realists, sceptics,<br />

call them what you want,<br />

though not, please, ‘deniers’.<br />

Patrick Moore was one of<br />

the founders of Greenpeace,<br />

but has since declared that<br />

the organisation has been<br />

taken over by scaremongers<br />

and disinformers.<br />

<strong>The</strong> debate, at local university,<br />

was organised by a legal<br />

firm in Charleston, Virginia,<br />

and you had to pay something<br />

to attend.<br />

GENERAL MANAGER<br />

Dear Sir,<br />

It is a disgrace that this<br />

NSW Government has not<br />

yet removed from its own<br />

site in Nelson Parade,<br />

Hunters Hill, serious contamination<br />

including radioactive<br />

waste.<br />

This residential site on the<br />

Parramatta River is clearly<br />

causing harm to the health<br />

of residents and generally<br />

to the surrounding environment<br />

and has for many<br />

years.<br />

Congratulations to <strong>TWT</strong><br />

for highlighting on page<br />

one last week the urgent<br />

need to ‘Clean it up NOW!’<br />

You have wide community<br />

support for this demand,<br />

not only from the Mayor of<br />

Hunters Hill Mark Bennett,<br />

but also from the Deputy<br />

Mayor Ross Williams, former<br />

Mayor Richard Quinn,<br />

Councillors, Philippa Clark<br />

and the Nelson Parade Action<br />

Group and many members<br />

of the community both<br />

local and wider.<br />

Expert reports say that it<br />

should be taken off site to<br />

an appropriate facility, and<br />

local Lane Cove member<br />

Anthony Roberts who is<br />

also Minister for Planning<br />

can simply sign the application<br />

before him from<br />

Property NSW to make this<br />

happen.<br />

<strong>The</strong> member for Ryde Victor<br />

Dominello, who is the<br />

Minister for Property NSW,<br />

stated to residents recently<br />

that the Government had<br />

$30 million to clean up the<br />

site. Well Minister, it wasn’t<br />

in the NSW Budget for the<br />

next year.<br />

<strong>The</strong> community is sick<br />

of the spin and the delays<br />

from both Ministers.<br />

Clean it up NOW!<br />

PHIL JENKYN OAM<br />

Hunters Hill<br />

Consideration for<br />

remediation work<br />

Dear Sir,<br />

<strong>TWT</strong>’s support for our<br />

campaign to encourage<br />

the NSW Government to<br />

remediate the former industrial<br />

land at Nelson<br />

Parade was important in<br />

securing a $30m commitment<br />

from Government to<br />

fix this problem.<br />

We appreciate the engagement<br />

of Property NSW<br />

and our local member, Anthony<br />

Roberts MP, over recent<br />

months.<br />

Property NSW has developed<br />

a number of remediation<br />

proposals which warrant<br />

serious consideration<br />

and evaluation.<br />

Residents are understandably<br />

concerned with<br />

these proposals because a<br />

significant part of the contaminated<br />

waste would be<br />

encapsulated onsite.<br />

However, onsite encapsulation<br />

is quite commonly<br />

used for the remediation of<br />

former industrial land like<br />

the site in Nelson Parade.<br />

It is certainly preferable to<br />

the current position.<br />

After 40 years in inaction<br />

and broken promise by<br />

successive Governments,<br />

it is also understandable<br />

that residents are sceptical<br />

about this Government’s<br />

commitment to follow<br />

through.<br />

Testing the proposals<br />

from a scientific and technical<br />

perspective and securing<br />

the commitment of<br />

Government is best done<br />

by a calm consideration of<br />

the facts in a balanced, reasoned<br />

and careful manner.<br />

We need to avoid further<br />

needless politicisation of<br />

the issues.<br />

I emphasised these<br />

points when I spoke as<br />

Chair of Hunters Hill Environment<br />

Action Group at<br />

the recent Council meeting<br />

reported on in your edition<br />

of <strong>June</strong> 20.<br />

We were pleased with the<br />

resolution of Hunters Hill<br />

Council to support residents<br />

test the current proposals<br />

on their merits.<br />

We look forward to <strong>TWT</strong>’s<br />

continuing support of our<br />

campaign.<br />

Exciting pathway for those<br />

interested in fashion industry<br />

HAVING a strong<br />

passion for fashion,<br />

I’m currently studying<br />

a Diploma of Business<br />

at <strong>The</strong> Fashion<br />

Institute at Chippendale.<br />

I have been here<br />

since the start of the<br />

year and have thoroughly<br />

enjoyed my<br />

time so far.<br />

I decided to take this<br />

path as from a young<br />

age I’ve always adored<br />

fashion and my passion<br />

for it grew more<br />

and more across my<br />

high school years.<br />

Initially I was going to<br />

study textiles at university,<br />

as I wasn’t aware<br />

of any other paths into<br />

the fashion industry.<br />

I then fortunately<br />

found <strong>The</strong> Fashion Institute’s<br />

course and<br />

completely fell in love<br />

with the place and<br />

enrolled as soon as I<br />

could. <strong>The</strong> course is<br />

a perfect mixture of<br />

business and fashion<br />

combined.<br />

* * *<br />

THE highlight of<br />

my experience so far<br />

has been participating<br />

in the amazing event<br />

opportunities we are<br />

offered.<br />

I have worked at<br />

shows including the<br />

likes of David Jones’<br />

Autumn/Winter Collection<br />

launch, One<br />

THIRTY years ago<br />

when Hunters Hill was<br />

celebrating the bi-centenary<br />

of Australia, it<br />

formed an association<br />

with old Europe, the<br />

birthplace of a number<br />

of our past and present<br />

residents.<br />

On that occasion,<br />

Council expressed<br />

the desire to secure a<br />

link with Le Vesinet in<br />

France, a distance of<br />

20,000 kilometres.<br />

<strong>The</strong> 30th Anniversary<br />

of the signing of the<br />

Hunters Hill Le Vesinet<br />

Friendship Pact will be<br />

celebrated with a dinner<br />

to farewell the French<br />

Students visiting Australia<br />

and to acknowledge<br />

the friendship between<br />

Le Vesinet and<br />

Hunters Hill.<br />

<strong>The</strong> dinner will be held<br />

on August 9 at the Hunters<br />

Hill Club and RSVP<br />

is a must on www.trybooking.com/381331.<br />

PLANNING is well under<br />

way for the <strong>2018</strong><br />

Moocooboola Festival,<br />

which will commence<br />

on Sunday August 5 at<br />

Boronia Park at 10am.<br />

This annual festival has<br />

something for everyone<br />

with entertainment,<br />

rides, a dog show, delicious<br />

selection of food,<br />

To <strong>The</strong> POINT<br />

with FARNOZ SHAY<br />

Fine Day Bridal Show<br />

and the Sass & Bide<br />

X Myer VIP Event and<br />

was thrilled to be able<br />

to volunteer at Mercedes<br />

Benz Fashion<br />

Week this year.<br />

I was positioned in<br />

the Front of House for<br />

most shows where I<br />

would assist with setting<br />

up, scanning tickets<br />

for all the guests<br />

(this being where I<br />

got to see all sorts of<br />

glamorous people arrive<br />

in their gorgeous<br />

outfits) and watch the<br />

runway shows once<br />

they commenced.<br />

I also had the amazing<br />

opportunity of<br />

working backstage at<br />

the exclusive Camilla<br />

With Love show that<br />

had the most stunning<br />

set up out of all the<br />

shows where I helped<br />

dress the models.<br />

* * *<br />

ANOTHER highlight<br />

has been networking<br />

and being<br />

able to meet, connect<br />

and learn from incredible<br />

people who work<br />

in the industry such<br />

as stylists, photographers,<br />

designers<br />

and editors of fashion<br />

magazines just to<br />

name a few.<br />

I am currently interning<br />

at Tailormaid Communications,<br />

a fashion<br />

and beauty Public Relations<br />

agency.<br />

I have been packaging<br />

their gifting and<br />

product send outs<br />

which go out to their<br />

clients and a wide<br />

range of influencers/<br />

celebrities as well as<br />

picking items for client<br />

shoots from their<br />

showroom.<br />

Wednesday 27 <strong>June</strong>, <strong>2018</strong> THE WEEKLY TIMES 7<br />

Last chance to save<br />

this Epping cottage<br />

THE fate of a heritage cottage in Epping is expected to be decided after a public meeting on<br />

Wednesday July 4 at the Mantra Hotel in Parramatta at 6.00pm.<br />

This will be the third public<br />

meeting after an independent<br />

planning panel deferred its decision<br />

on a development application<br />

which proposed to demolish<br />

the heritage cottage at 48<br />

Oxford Street, Epping and build<br />

a high-rise apartment block on<br />

the site with an estimated 200<br />

units.<br />

Epping MP Damien Tudehope<br />

said he remains strongly opposed<br />

to the development and<br />

has called on Parramatta City<br />

Council to intervene.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> only way to remove a heritage<br />

protected item from an LEP<br />

is by way of Planning Proposal,<br />

and it’s the role of councils, not<br />

planning panels to make that<br />

decision,” Mr Tudehope said.<br />

<strong>The</strong> planning panel is seeking<br />

legal advice on the appli cation<br />

which will give applicant time to<br />

consider if it is feasible to retain<br />

the heritage site as part of a development.<br />

Mr Tudehope said he has four<br />

recommendations to be put to<br />

the public meeting.<br />

“Do not approve development<br />

applications until the City of Parramatta<br />

has released its Epping<br />

Town Centre traffic study,” he<br />

said.<br />

“Do not approve development<br />

applications until there is a government<br />

commitment to widen<br />

Epping Bridge.<br />

“We must also ensure the heritage<br />

status should only be determined<br />

by councils and when<br />

considering traffic impacts of<br />

developments, they should be<br />

looking at the cumulative impact<br />

of development in the area rather<br />

than just the impact of the site<br />

being considered.”<br />

Charter Hall shopping centres partner with<br />

Two Good to provide 20,000 meals to women in need<br />

LEADING property group Charter Hall has partnered with social<br />

enterprise Two Good to provide 20,000 meals to domestic violence<br />

survivors throughout Australia.<br />

From <strong>June</strong> 27 to July<br />

14, Charter Hall, in partnership<br />

with the communities<br />

in which they<br />

operate, is “Delivering<br />

Good” across 26 of<br />

its shopping centres<br />

and raising awareness<br />

about family and<br />

domestic violence.<br />

As part of this campaign,<br />

Charter Hall will<br />

provide meals to women<br />

and children in refuges<br />

nationwide.<br />

Giant jigsaw puzzle<br />

frames will be set up<br />

in participating centres<br />

including West Ryde<br />

Marketplace with shoppers<br />

encouraged to<br />

play their part by adding<br />

their piece to the<br />

puzzle.<br />

<strong>The</strong> puzzle-building<br />

process symbolises<br />

domestic violence survivors<br />

rebuilding their<br />

lives and the role the<br />

community can play.<br />

With every piece put<br />

into its place, a Two<br />

Good meal will be donated<br />

to a nearby shelter,<br />

up to 800 meals.<br />

Greg Chubb, Head of<br />

Retail for Charter Hall,<br />

says: “We are delighted<br />

and privileged to partner<br />

with Two Good to<br />

deliver this campaign.<br />

As an owner and manager<br />

of conveniencebased<br />

shopping centres<br />

Australia-wide, we<br />

take our responsibility<br />

of giving back seriously.<br />

“One in four women in<br />

Australia experience<br />

domestic violence at<br />

some point, and many<br />

of them end up in refuges<br />

whilst they<br />

work through this very<br />

challenging time in their<br />

lives. Two Good is doing<br />

extraordinary work<br />

in supporting these<br />

shelters and the women<br />

in them, and Charter<br />

Hall is honoured to be<br />

able to support<br />

Two Good to reach<br />

into regional Australia.<br />

We are also grateful<br />

that both Neil Perry and<br />

Maggie Beer are supporting<br />

us in delivering<br />

this important donation,”<br />

he added.<br />

A puzzle builder will<br />

start the build at West<br />

Ryde Marketplace and<br />

encourage shoppers to<br />

participate.<br />

As the pieces of the<br />

puzzle come together<br />

they will reveal images<br />

of the Two Good community<br />

including founder<br />

Rob Caslick, Delivering<br />

Good ambassadors<br />

Neil Perry and Maggie<br />

Beer and some<br />

of the beautiful women<br />

within the community<br />

who have experienced<br />

domestic violence.<br />

Shoppers who get<br />

involved in-centre and<br />

choose a ‘golden’ puzzle<br />

piece at random will<br />

also receive a Maggie<br />

Beer cookbook or a<br />

Rockpool dining experience<br />

valued at $600.<br />

Two Good founder<br />

Rob Caslick says: “We<br />

are thrilled to be partnering<br />

with Charter<br />

Hall Retail to raise the<br />

awareness of domestic<br />

violence in regional<br />

areas, and to take our<br />

message and work beyond<br />

Australia’s largest<br />

cities.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> 20,000 meals<br />

funded by the Delivering<br />

Good campaign<br />

will go directly to shelters<br />

and refuges close<br />

to those centres,” said<br />

Rob.<br />

“It is incredibly important<br />

for Charter Hall to<br />

support the<br />

local communities in<br />

which they operate and<br />

to connect with and<br />

provide a positive benefit<br />

for those communities.”<br />

Since Two Good began<br />

its work in late<br />

2016, the organisation<br />

has delivered more than<br />

40,000 meals to refuges<br />

and shelters and has<br />

established a kitchen in<br />

Sydney where domestic<br />

violence survivors<br />

can train for jobs in<br />

hospitality.<br />

FORMED in 1935, the Count Basie Orchestra was one of the best known Big Bands of the 1930s and 1940s and popular<br />

world-wide.<br />

While most of the other bands<br />

folded at the end of the 1940s, the<br />

Count Basie Orchestra continued.<br />

Attesting to the esteem in which<br />

the band was held, in the<br />

1950s and 60s they performed<br />

and recorded with some of the<br />

best known vocalists of that<br />

era including Frank Sinatra, Ella<br />

Fitzgerald, Billy Eckstein, Sarah<br />

Vaughan, Sammy Davis Jr and<br />

the Mills Brothers.<br />

Count Basie himself died in<br />

1984, but under a succession of<br />

dedicated leaders since then, the<br />

band continues to this day and is<br />

coming to Australia in early August<br />

for a series of concerts.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y also have a new album to<br />

be released in September.<br />

Scotty Barnhart is the current<br />

leader, appointed in 2013, tasked<br />

with carrying on the important<br />

legacy.<br />

But in addition to that role, between<br />

exhausting world tours and<br />

recording dates, Scotty is also<br />

a Professor of Music at Florida<br />

State University.<br />

He took time out last week to<br />

speak by phone to Brian Crabbe<br />

at the<br />

Ryde-Hunters Hill community<br />

radio station 2RRR.<br />

Brian presents a program called<br />

<strong>The</strong>re Goes That Song Again featuring<br />

popular music of the 1940s,<br />

50s and 60s.<br />

He also has academic links,<br />

having come to community radio<br />

in retirement after a long university<br />

career.<br />

Within their conversation, Brian<br />

asked Scotty about the distinguishing<br />

factors that made the<br />

original band unique, and that<br />

contribute to its continuing success<br />

today.<br />

Listeners will be able to hear<br />

that interview, as well some of the<br />

band’s best known early recordings,<br />

some of their most recent<br />

recordings and some with the<br />

great vocalists of the 1950s and<br />

60s. It will be broadcast as a onehour<br />

special on 2RRR, 88.5FM<br />

and streamed on the web at 2rrr.<br />

org.au at 3pm on Tuesday July 3<br />

and repeated at 11am on Friday<br />

July 6.<br />

EASTWOOD COMMUNITY NEWS<br />

Steamboat is the ultimate<br />

Way to defy winter<br />

By Dr FELIX LO*<br />

In Sodor there is Thomas the steam tank engine. In<br />

Eastwood there are Steamboats. Steamboat is a Chinese<br />

cooking method, prepared with a simmering pot of<br />

soup stock. While simmering, thinly sliced ingredients are<br />

placed in the pot and cooked at the table for immediate<br />

consumption.<br />

Culinary connoisseur, King Lee OAM, Superintendent of<br />

the Sydney Dimsum Chefs Association describes the magic<br />

of Steamboat as “…akin to that of a scout bonfire in which<br />

hungry people gathered for a common purpose while being<br />

enlightened by the synergy of fire, steam and friendship.”<br />

Lee, who is also my fellow practitioner in the High Court,<br />

makes this analogy “In court we use hot tubbing (for giving<br />

expert evidence), here (on a dining table) we use Steamboat to<br />

bring out the best.”<br />

In southwestern China Steamboat is so popular that it can<br />

be smelled in the air “ ‘Steamboat is in the air,’ “ says local<br />

senior and social club chairman, Peter Gu “Just like that song<br />

from my 90’s ‘Love is in the air’. You see, it is all about (putting<br />

love in) the soup base. People from different regions make their<br />

soup differently to satisfy their taste buds. For example, in the<br />

Sichuan region people make the soup so spicy that you can<br />

sweat by just sitting next to it.”<br />

For many Steamboat fans, their galvanic connection with this<br />

winter cuisine is powered by its versatility. “Steamboat is an<br />

imagination not a recipe. <strong>The</strong> beauty is that you can throw in<br />

anything you like, however, there are two secrets of success.<br />

First is freshness of seafood,” says Gu, alluding to his small<br />

sized ocean catch, “And second, is family and friends. After<br />

all, it is really a melting pot that can bring people closer to each<br />

other.” Says the nostalgic senior.<br />

This winter, Steamboat awaits you in Eastwood!<br />

Join me and President Hugh Lee OAM on Saturday July<br />

28 for our Eastwood Chinese Senior Citizens Club (EC-<br />

SCC) outing to Nan Tien Temple. We will be there to celebrate<br />

the opening of the Nan Tien Bridge and to taste<br />

the Temple’s famous vegetarian dish. <strong>The</strong> legendary radio<br />

personality Johnson Cheng will be our tour guide! RSVP<br />

Centenary of WW1 1914 - 1918<br />

Villers-Bretonneux close<br />

Connection with Ryde<br />

BY JOHN F BOOTH AM<br />

Editor, <strong>The</strong> <strong>Weekly</strong> <strong>Times</strong><br />

Ryde NSW has close ties with Villers-<br />

Bretonneux France going back over 100<br />

years to the so called Great War of 1914-<br />

1918.<br />

My father Arthur John Booth originally<br />

from Grenfell country NSW settled in Ryde<br />

after the war and service at Villers-<br />

Bretonneux when a teenager and<br />

established a business, <strong>The</strong> Gum Leaf<br />

cake shop, in Blaxland Road Ryde.<br />

He married a Miss Australia beauty queen<br />

Renee Buckland in St Anne’s church Ryde<br />

in January 1927 and subsequently had<br />

three children baptised at St Anne’s.<br />

Arthur Booth served as an Alderman on<br />

Ryde Municipal Council at the time of his<br />

death in 1952 aged 52.<br />

His brother elder Henry Booth was killed in<br />

action at Villers-Bretonneux <strong>June</strong> 7 1918<br />

aged 20. And their brother-in-law William<br />

Taylor Gibbs was killed in action nearby.<br />

<strong>The</strong> famous Villers-Bretonneux cross<br />

installed in St Anne’s Church Ryde has<br />

been reproduced in stone and erected in<br />

the Villers-Bretonneux Parish Church,<br />

pictured above right.

In Strata ... because we care!<br />

Secure a ‘banking insider’ rate on your<br />

investment loan by unlocking equity<br />

WHY should a banking insider<br />

get a better rate than a<br />

<strong>TWT</strong> reader?<br />

Cue the iChoice team and<br />

our commitment to empowering<br />

people to squeeze the<br />

best deal it can from banks<br />

and other lenders.<br />

Our team does this day in,<br />

day out for iChoice clients<br />

and we just love seeing the<br />

end result: our client keeping<br />

the tens of thousands<br />

of dollars they’d otherwise<br />

hand over to their lender.<br />

So let’s look at Doug’s<br />

situation - he has a home<br />

in Ryde worth $1.5m and<br />

a home loan of $500,000<br />

against that. But an investment<br />

opportunity has<br />

popped up and he’d love<br />

the best available owner-occupied<br />

rate of about 3.7%.<br />

He has ‘equity’ of $1m.<br />

But is this useful?. <strong>The</strong><br />

banks generally lend 80%<br />

against the value of a property<br />

- us ‘ex-bankers’ call<br />

this the BV - the ‘bank value’,<br />

otherwise also known<br />

as the ‘extended value’.<br />

Given Doug’s home is<br />

worth $1.5m, banks would<br />

be able to lend up to $1.2m<br />

(being 80%).<br />

Subtract his loan liability<br />

of $500,000 and the amount<br />

of ‘usable’ equity is another<br />

$700,000.<br />

Doug has two choices: He<br />

can slog it out, trying to pay<br />

off his home over 15 years<br />

with his after-tax dollars.<br />

Or he can tap into the useable<br />

equity in his home this<br />

spring to buy an investment<br />

property for $1m, which will<br />

hopefully double in value<br />

over the same period. time.<br />

Any bank would happily<br />

lend him the $1,040,000 he<br />

would need to fund this<br />

investment, being the purchase<br />

price plus stamp<br />

duty.<br />

Actually, the banks would<br />

be happy to extend to Doug<br />

80% of the value of both<br />

properties - totalling $2.5m<br />

in value - they’ll have a<br />

mortgage over.<br />

That’s $2m - he shoes it in<br />

because his home loan plus<br />

his investment loan total<br />

only $1,540,000.<br />

Approval would also be<br />

subject to his ability to service<br />

the loans, but that’s another<br />

story.<br />

<strong>The</strong> new investment loan<br />

of $1,040,000 would be at<br />

a higher ‘investment rate’<br />

as most banks price on<br />

‘purpose’<br />

- that is,<br />

the purpose<br />

of<br />

My solution is to refinance But the bulk of his investment<br />

loan - ‘Loan B’, which would make our client<br />

his home loan - which was<br />

approved this week - but would already have been happy, wealthy and secure<br />

increased his limit to unlock<br />

all his ‘usable’ equity of home - is at the whiz-bang been awarded ‘Best Small<br />

established against his<br />

$1.2m.<br />

We split this into ‘Loan A’ 3.70%. A great result. If I’ve got you thinking<br />

and the super duper<br />

and ‘Loan B’ to keep his It also beats the life - in an<br />

home loan separately identifiable.<br />

Hunters Hill considers<br />

selling Council land<br />

to ratepayers<br />

HUNTERS HILL ratepayers could be given an opportunity<br />

to buy strips of council owned land adjoining<br />

their homes under a proposal discussed at Monday<br />

night’s council meeting.<br />

Councillors who support the proposal said the sold<br />

off land would add value to homes – if it has no community<br />

use – and money from sales could fund council<br />

projects.<br />

“This is not a cash grab, it is nothing of the sort,” Clr<br />

Zac Miles said.<br />

<strong>The</strong> proposal is expected to be reviewed by a newly<br />

formed council and community run property committee<br />

which would specifically exclude land used for recreation,<br />

viewpoint and access.<br />

Deputy Mayor Ross Williams and Clr Jim Sanderson<br />

expressed concern about the new committee’s role but<br />

it was endorsed by other councillors with assurances it<br />

would only be an advisory body.<br />

*****<br />

MONEY owed by the state government to pay the<br />

cost of Hunters Hill Council’s recent legal action against<br />

the proposed forced mergers is being chased by council<br />

staff.<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Weekly</strong> <strong>Times</strong> recently reported that councils<br />

which defeated the forced mergers several months ago<br />

are owed millions of dollars by the government after<br />

courts awarded costs against it.<br />

General Manager Barry Smith said Hunters Hill will<br />

keep pressing the government to pay what it owes the<br />

council, estimated to be tens of thousands of dollars.<br />

‘We have requested our costs from the government<br />

and we have received no answer,” he said.<br />

“Lane Cove has taken other action and certainly the<br />

government has paid some costs, to some councils, but<br />

not to us.”<br />

<strong>The</strong> government had proposed the forced merger of<br />

Hunters Hill with Lane Cove and the City of Ryde.<br />

*****<br />

GLADESVILLE SHOPPING VILLAGE patrons will receive<br />

a newsletter and will have access to a webpage to<br />

update them on on-going developments.<br />

Hunters Hill councillors were told on Monday night<br />

the newsletter and website will be provided by the City<br />

of Ryde, which could also set up a community noticeboard.<br />

Gladesville Village Main Street Committee member<br />

Chris Schofield expressed concern the two adjoining<br />

councils “do not talk to each other” but Hunters Hill<br />

Group Manager (Development and Regulatory Control)<br />

Steve Kourepis told councillors on Monday night that<br />

staff from both councils had recently met and discussed<br />

“comprehensive communication and engagement strategies”<br />

that will be detailed and specific.<br />

Mr Schofield further suggested that a designated<br />

person by employed to share information between the<br />

councils but Main Street Committee Chairman Ryde Clr<br />

Roy Maggio expressed concern at this suggestion due<br />

to the costs involved.<br />

Influx of lady golfers at Women’s<br />

International Golf Day event<br />

RYDE-Parramatta Golf Club recently celebrated Women’s International<br />

Golf Day for a second successive year - with 25 new beginner lady golfers<br />

given an education on the finer points of golf.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Day was held to<br />

encourage the rookie<br />

lady golfers and give<br />

them the opportunity<br />

to learn more about<br />

the game in a friendly<br />

and informative environment.<br />

Ryde-Parramatta<br />

stalwart Jan Bush said<br />

the event proved a<br />

rousing success with<br />

the newcomers keen<br />

to participate in this<br />

great experience.<br />

Format of the day<br />

began with a chipping<br />

lesson from professional<br />

Glenn Kelly and<br />

Jessica Noh before the<br />

new golfers were then<br />

grouped into teams<br />

with lady members<br />

who introduced the<br />

ladies to the beautiful<br />

golf course by way of<br />

a 9 hole four ball ambrose<br />

competition.<br />

At the conclusion of<br />

the ambrose, a putting<br />

competition was held.<br />

“Of note is that we<br />

had Colette Blacklock,<br />

recent winner of Golf<br />

NSW Mid-Amateur<br />

Championship at Bathurst<br />

Golf Club, assisting<br />

on the day,”<br />

said Jan.<br />

“Colette is a current<br />

member of our Major<br />

Pennant Team and<br />

was acknowledged on<br />

the day for her recent<br />

win.”<br />

<strong>The</strong> day also included<br />

the final of the<br />

annual Chick-of-the-<br />

Walk handicap match<br />

play championship<br />

which was won by<br />

Barbara Reynolds who<br />

defeated Nancy Tan 1<br />

up.<br />

“Our special guest<br />

for the day was Piret<br />

Elmassian, the Marketing<br />

Manager for<br />

Golf NSW,” said Jan.<br />

“After joining in all<br />

of the activities, Piret<br />

spoke to the ladies before<br />

lunch highlighting<br />

the benefits of golf.<br />

She said it was a game<br />

where age was no barrier,<br />

(there are some<br />

ladies over the age of<br />

90 who still play), that<br />

it is a wonderful way to<br />

exercise and provides<br />

a lovely opportunity to<br />

form new friendships,<br />

have fun and organise<br />

many social outings<br />

together.”<br />

Jan thanked Ryde-<br />

Parramatta Golf Club<br />

who congratulated the<br />

Ladies Committee for<br />

their organisation of<br />

the event.<br />

“In turn the Ladies<br />

would like to thank Piret<br />

for her enthusiastic<br />

input and the Club’s<br />

Professional staff for<br />

their assistance on the<br />

day,” she added.<br />

Ryde Parramatta<br />

Golf Club will be following<br />

up with a number<br />

of Beginners Clinics.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y will be held from<br />

July 24 through to August<br />

28 and the cost is<br />

$180 for the program.<br />

participate can obtain<br />

Welcome Back<br />

DRINk RESPONSIBLY<br />

Tigers fans will welcome back home to<br />

Leichhardt Oval HQ this Sunday favourite<br />

son Robbie Farah and welcome new chum<br />

Moses Mbye.<br />

Robbie should never<br />

have been forced to<br />

leave and he will receive<br />

the hero’s welcome<br />

home he deserves this<br />

Sunday.<br />

Just as another<br />

favourite son Benji<br />

Marshall has been<br />

welcomed back into<br />

the fold and played<br />

with such outstanding<br />

success.<br />

And Tigers fans<br />

will give a hearty big<br />

Leichhardt welcome<br />

to new fullback Moses<br />

Mbye who will help the<br />

Tigers go on to NRL<br />

Premiership honours on<br />

September 30.<br />

And its not just a case<br />

of if, but who we will<br />

meet and beat on that<br />

eventful day.<br />

My fearless tip is it will<br />

be a traditional Tigers<br />

v Bunnies classic or<br />

optionally it could be<br />

Tigers v Sinners from St<br />

George. If they’re lucky.<br />

We’ll have a preview of<br />

that encounter at HQ on<br />

Saturday August 18.<br />

Tigers supercoach Ivan<br />

Cleary has just about put<br />

all the winning pieces<br />

of the Tigers winning<br />

jigsaw together in the<br />

lead up to the finals race.<br />

Just a shame there<br />

are so few games at<br />

Australia’s best footy<br />

ground and only one on<br />

a Sunday arvo.<br />

So that makes this<br />

Sunday so important,<br />

even if it is a bit early at<br />

2pm, but let’s make the<br />

most of it.<br />

Let’s pack out HQ this<br />

Sunday and all celebrate<br />

together afterwards. See<br />

ya there.<br />

Tigers will be bolstered by the return of legendary<br />

hooker Robbie Farah and Bulldogs recruit<br />

Moses Mbye. Photo courtesy Wests Tigers.<br />
