Message from your MayorIn the last two weeks Council has been actively involved in two important events focusing on the key strategic issues across the western suburbs of Melbourne. Council’s Chief Executive, Neville Smith, and I travelled to Canberra two weeks ago to meet with Federal Ministers as part of the Mayors of Melbourne’s West Delegation to Canberra 2013. The aim of this trip was to strongly advocate to the Federal Government about the issues and opportunities facing Melbourne’s west, and included meetings with the Prime Minister, Federal Ministers, members of the Coalition and their advisers. Last week the Western Agenda, a strategic plan for Melbourne’s west, was launched in Moonee Valley at Council offi ces. The Western Agenda provides a roadmap to focus and unite the work of Council and other organisations interested in the future of Melbourne’s west.Both of these events are important steps in securing positive outcomes for Moonee Valley into the future.As always, I encourage you to contact me if you wish to provide feedback or discuss any local issues.Cr Narelle Sharpe, Mayor of Moonee Valley

Out of the loop, and not happyBY EUGENE BENSON

Bypass: Public Transport Victoriahas reduced the number ofCraigeburn line services enteringthe City Loop. Picture: Craig Abraham

GREENS leader Greg Barber haslaunched a stinging attack on PublicTransport Victoria for changes madeto services on the Craigieburn line.

A timetable released last Novemberincluded a reduced number of city-bound services through the City Loopin the morning peak. And a new time-table coming into affect on April 28will result in all bar one of the eveningservices bypassing the loop.

Mr Barber said he could not under-stand why PTV would make thingstougher for commuters.

‘‘PTV never ask the passengers whatthey want. They run the transportsystem for their own convenience and

profit while the Transport Minister[Terry Mulder] just sits mute.

‘‘I predict there will be more of thistrend until the Craigieburn line is cutout completely from the City Loop.

‘‘They think they can run a reallygood rail system — if not for thepassengers. You read about thesechanges when it’s a done deal and inthe timetable.’’

Essendon resident and Craigieburnline commuter Damien Ash said heregularly complained about the servicechange.

‘‘It’s a real pain. I would expect90 per cent of people would muchprefer to go through the loop.

‘‘It’s not good enough; you see a lotof people getting off at North

Melbourne and having to wait for aCity Loop train.

‘‘Train fares are forever on theincrease while Metro’s offering seemsto be on the decrease; the more youpay the worse the service gets.’’

At present, all trains from Craigie-burn run via the loop in the morning,with the exception of three — in thepeak period between 8 and 9am; theyrun to Flinders Street Station viaSouthern Cross.

In the afternoon and evening, ser-vices run via the loop, but in the otherdirection, with nine of the eveningservices not going through the loopwhen they terminate at Flinders Street.

Under the new timetable, post-April28, the morning stays the same, but

there will be two extra afternoonservices that don’t enter the loop andonly one evening service that will usethe loop.

A PTV spokesman said despiteservices missing the loop, five peakservices were added to the Craigieburnline. ‘‘This change has benefited thosepassengers who travel [direct] toSouthern Cross and Flinders Street asthey no longer have to travel throughthe City Loop or change trains atNorth Melbourne station.

‘‘While meeting the needs of moretrain users, this change has helpedmanage the number of services run-ning through the City Loop and inturn improved the reliability of ser-vices using the loop.’’

Sometimes,Skype’s the limit

SARAH HARRISQUE SERA

The competition between the My KitchenRules contestants was nearing its weeklyzenith.

Who would win the sudden-death cook-off?Could Angela and Melina’s roast duck withwild rice and honey carrots beat out Jake andElle’s classic vitello tonnato, or would theMelbourne housewives’ big, big hair get in theway?

There could be no missing this even on agetaway to the beach.

The drama was on full boil when a youngEnglishman entered the caravan parkentertainment room.

“Do you mind if I Skype,” he asked politely.Not if you don’t mind if we drool over

molten chocolate cake with fig and coffee icecream, I telegraphed mentally.

No, not at all — go right ahead.Why do people talk on Skype as if they’re in

a spacecraft orbiting Mars? Houston, can youhear me? Oh yes, and they’ve got audio inAireys Inlet, too.

The young man’s connection kept droppingout, but by the time he spoke to his little niecewe were all up to date on the family gossip.

Then came the question. “Why do you lookso sad Milly Moo?” he asked.

“M-m-mummy h-hi-hit me. Mummy hit mehard on my face,” wailed a little voice thatseemed to momentarily silence eveneffervescent television chef Manu.

“Oh, she was just being a total pain. I’vehad it with her today,” came the exasperatedvoice of the mother over wracking sobs.

No one had tuned in to watch The Slap.We left the discomforted English lad holding

his tearful niece in his hand.Suddenly, we’d lost our appetite.

In for their chop, and appleBY EUGENE BENSON

DOING their bit to promote healthy eating, thekind people at Wingate Avenue CommunityCentre last week hosted a free fresh food market.

Residents with a Health Care Card had thechance to shop for fresh fruit, vegetables andsome refrigerated products at the market, whichwas held just in time for the Easter long-weekend.

Wingate centre manager Jan Thorpe saidhundreds of Ascot Vale residents took advantageof the market, showing that fresh food really is indemand.

“We know there are many individuals andfamilies in the local area needing support when itcomes to food and nutrition. It’s the first timewe’ve been able to bring a fresh food market toour residents and we hope it will help them fillthe pantry with healthy, nutritious, fresh food.”

Mrs Thorpe said a visit from the Easter bunnywas also arranged much to the appreciation ofthe children on the estate.

The market was co-hosted by FoodbankVictoria and Second Bite, the products donatedby various producers and manufacturers.■ The Wingate centre is based on an Ascot Valehousing estate, home to many families and youngpeople, being mostly newly arrived migrants andrefugees, and people on low income and unem-ployed.The centre is a ‘registered training organisation’and offers education, training and occasionalchildcare combined with social and recreationprograms that aim to create pathways to educa-tion and jobs and opportunities for people tocontribute to the community.■ Foodbank Victoria is an independent charitythat aims to deliver nutritious, healthy food toindividuals and families experiencing hardshipFoodbank Victoria provides food, emergencyrelief and support programs to Victoriansthrough a network of more than 600 communityorganisations, such as welfare agencies, schools,support groups and local resource centres.In 2011, more than 4.1 million kilos of food andmaterial aid were distributed across metro,regional and rural communities of Victoria.

Strolling through a new park planBY EUGENE BENSON

Under wraps:Essendon andFootscraycricketers putcovers over thepitch at WindyHill. EssendonCricket Club’sdecision toremain at theoval will mean arevision of theFairbairn Parkmaster plan.

Picture: Ari Hatzis

AN updated master plan for Ascot Vale’s FairbairnPark will be made a priority for Moonee ValleyCouncil this year.

The existing master plan, developed withcommunity input in 2010, is now largely redundantwith the Essendon Cricket Club deciding not torelocate from Windy Hill.

The Essendon Football Club’s ‘flight plan’ andrelocation to Tullamarine made space for thePremier Grade cricket club.

Moonee Valley Council will be seeking ideas andfeedback from the community until April 26 inorder to update the park’s master plan, which willhelp guide its development.

Fairbairn Park sits alongside the Maribyrnong

River and has a number of ovals and open spacesused for organised sports and informal recreation.

The outdated master plan proposed a sportspavilion be earmarked for Essendon Cricket Clubalong Woods Street.

As part of the review, the council is investigatingrelocating this pavilion to the centre of the park toreplace the existing north and central pavilions.

Sports and Recreation councillor John Sipek saidany plan was open to consultation.

“There’s an opportunity to move the proposedcommunity sports pavilion to a central location,which could enable us to build a brand new, multi-purpose pavilion for club and community use in aposition that’s away from residential homes,”Cr Sipek said.

“This is what the council wants to put forward,

but obviously we’d like the community’s views on aproposed pavilion location, which will be madeavailable for feedback as one part of the masterplan review.’’

Residents can attend an open session from 10am-noon on April 21 at South Pavilion, corner ofWoods and Newsom streets, Ascot Vale, or [email protected] to make acontribution.

Or post to Leisure and Open Space Planning,Moonee Valley City Council, PO Box 126, MooneePonds 3039.

Works already completed at the park include newseating and signage, tree and vegetation planting,fencing and pathway upgrades, a new picnicarea and a rotunda next to Newsom StreetBridge.

Night race steals spotlight

Dark horses: The Moonee Valley Racing Club could be tempted to run the Cox Plate at night, after the success ofits recent meeting featuring Black Caviar. Picture: Kate Healy

The overwhelming success of Black Caviar’sswansong might well tempt the MooneeValley Racing Club to bite the bullet and

run the Cox Plate meeting at night.Each year, the club has pushed its iconic event

to later in the day, while talking up the option ofhaving the event staged under lights. Given manyin the 25,000 crowd at the Valley a fortnight agodescribed the Black Caviar promotion as theirbest ever racing experience, the club could wellgive the Cox Plate a much-needed boost, given itis overshadowed yearly by the ever-growingVRC carnival at Flemington a week later.

The club would achieve more in pursuing thisobjective than pursuing its plans of ripping upthe track, rebuilding sideways, and creatingmulti-storey residential development, described

by a senior racing journalist as “ambitious at bestand at worst, bollocks”. Race club membersthemselves put their hands up to join the SaveMoonee Ponds committee months back, beingtotally opposed to their committee’s long termplans which have little, if any, chance of gettingoff the ground.

Pollie who keeps his promiseMyrniong ward residents might well have voted ina politician who does keep his promises. Thesedays that’s a rarity. But newly-elected councillorCam Nation has made an impressive start, plan-ning to give the first $3000 of his remuneration tolocal charities, an electioneering promise he madeduring campaigning.

The Moonee Valley Toy library is the beneficiaryof $1000 to purchase toys for members from non-English speaking backgrounds. The youngest onthe council is a breath of fresh air, wanting ourcouncil to be free of party politics and wheredecisions made are in the best interests of thecommunity. Cr Nation topped the poll inMyrniong and has been appointed to the economicdevelopment portfolio. We wish him well.

A cynical electorate will respect him if he contin-ues to deliver what he promises.

Community shares in bank’s profitsKeilor East community bank continues to donatesignificant funding for many local groups , havingrecently given $45,000 to eight community groups.Keilor East was the second of the communitybanks to open in Moonee Valley after the fourmajor banks irresponsibly closed many of theirbranches. Keilor East opened 11 years ago andtook a few years to find its feet. Its good work wasovershadowed initially by the team at Strathmore

which was the first of our community banks. Butthe well-managed Keilor East branch now tradesprofitably and is honouring its commitment toreturn part of its profits back to the community.

More than 30 local groups have been beneficiar-ies of the annual grants.

The final word. . .Aim low, reach your goals, and avoiddisappointment

Racecourse and Smithfield roads. It’s believed two

carloads of men confronted the male victim and a

female companion at the apartment. The man was

shot with a semi-automatic pistol and taken by the

woman to the Western Hospital. He was admitted

in a stable condition with wounds to his upper and

lower body. Detective Senior Sergeant Everett

Moutsidis, of the Santiago taskforce, said the cars

involved were dark-coloured sedans. He said the

victim was known to police. Information to Crime

Group sets out western agendaMaribyrnong MP Bill Shorten last week launched

LeadWest’s ‘strategic plan’ for Melbourne’s

western suburbs. The Western Agenda sets a

series of targets for the western region, including

lifting school retention rates, increasing

employment and business investment, improving

infrastructure including rail crossing, lines and

stations, and protecting the environment. It finds

that responsibility for reaching these targets is

shared between all levels of government,

business, education and health providers, and the

community.

Students given a taste of reality

Hands-on learning: Western Health education director Louise McKinlay shows Copperfield students Amy Lai, DylanDeRoza and Dianna Duong how to respond to emergencies involving alcohol intoxication and drug overdose.

STUDENTS at Essendon Keilor College and Cop-perfield College in Sydenham, are involved in a newprogram aimed at reducing rates of alcohol and drugabuse among western suburbs youths.

Targeting year 11 students, the Western AlcoholReduction Program is an initiative of WesternHealth, police and the Education Department.

Sunshine Hospital emergency department clinicalnurse and teacher Samantha Mineo said the six-session program was sparked by an increasing num-ber of young people going to the hospital under theinfluence of drugs and alcohol.

“Unfortunately, presentations relating to alcoholconsumption are not a rare occurrence,’’ she said.“Male and female are sometimes unable to stand ontheir own and become aggressive and violent. Whatis most concerning is that an increasing number ofthese people are young people.’’

The program is the first of its kind in the westernsuburbs and is designed to expose students to life inan emergency department to alter their perceptionsof alcohol and risk-related activities.

Clinical nurse specialist Voula Munro and DrDavid Mai have worked with students to produce aDVD portraying the possible medical and legalconsequences of decisions made when under theinfluence of drugs and alcohol.

Council hits back onbike path spending

Wheel deal: Cyclists enjoy a stretch of bike path along Moonee Ponds Creek. Picture: Michael Copp

BY EUGENE BENSON

MOONEE Valley Council has defended itsspending on bike paths amid claims of ‘ad hoc’funding allocations.

Strathmore resident and cyclist Gary Allansaid a council audit of bike path safety on theMoonee Ponds Creek path found the Travancoresection did not rate a mention, despite thecouncil recently announcing a plan to build asecond path at the park.

He said recent works in Strathmore alsoseemed odd.

‘‘The council has just spent a lot of money on asection of the path up near Strathmore Secondary[College], but no one can tell me what theparticular need was.

‘‘I am not opposed to the Travancore section,quite the contrary, but this development is a goodexample of the failure of the council to have acohesive, ranked and budgeted approach to whatneeds to be done on that path, and indeed on sim-ilar facilities in the municipality.

‘‘Everything is ad hoc, and that is how things

have been for 15 years or so,’’ Mr Allan said.Moonee Valley mayor Narelle Sharpe said the

recently upgraded section of the Moonee PondsCreek path was used by a high number ofstudents walking and cycling to StrathmoreSecondary College, and improvements wereundertaken to encourage more students to travelalong the route as part of council’s Better MovesAround Schools program.

‘‘A safety audit completed for the MooneePonds Creek path identified the bluestone drainacross the path and lack of fencing as hazards.’’

Cr Sharpe said works included realigning theaccess path to the college to improve sight linesand widening and realigning the main path.

‘‘This work was identified as a high priority incouncil’s recently adopted walking and cyclingstrategy, which the community was consulted onin February and March last year.’’

Total cost of the improvement works in Strath-more was $153,000.

The council is designing a replacement for theMontague Street boardwalk in Moonee Ponds,as well as a concept design to eliminate a blind

corner at Dean Street, Moonee Ponds. A projectfor improvement works in Travancore Park willbe considered as part of its 2013-14 budget.

The council established an external workinggroup and sought input from the community todecide on a concept plan for Moonee PondsCreek path.

Cr Sharpe said that while the council wascommitted to improving bicycle network links,there was a need to focus on keeping infrastruc-ture well maintained for the public’s safety.

‘‘On average, in the past three years, the coun-cil has reached Bicycle Network Victoria’s targetof spending around $5 per person in the muni-cipality. This amount includes work on bothon-road and off-road bike paths, as well as otherimprovement works, including signage.’’

In the council’s 2012-13 budget, $630,000 wasspent on cycling infrastructure, equating toabout $5.54 per person

In 2011-12, $550,000 was spent, a cost ofabout $4.88 per person.

Past has presencefor history buff

Historic occasion: Award winner Kelsey Collins at the historical society’s headquarters in Moonee Ponds.Picture: Michael Copp

BY EUGENE BENSON

SPENDING countless hours trawling throughdusty old books and historical documents is notevery young person’s idea of a good time, but forKelsey Collins it’s an enduring passion.

While busy studying arts and secondary educa-tion, majoring in history at Monash University,Ms Collins volunteers much of her spare time atthe Essendon Historical Society and has done sosince 2008.

Most Sundays she can be found processinghistorical documents including rates books andfile photos the society has in its possession.

The idea is to create a digital collection ofdocuments that link to the region’s past.

A side benefit to her work at the historicalsociety is becoming a part-time tutor to improvethe computer skills of many of the society’smembers.

Ms Collins is the latest winner of MooneeValley Council’s Youth Voice award, whichrecognises and rewards young people who makea positive contribution to the city.

The Aberfeldie resident said she was verygrateful for the award and could not see anyreason to stop the volunteer work she enjoys somuch.

‘‘My interest in history is a culmination ofthings but started when I was eight and went on atrip to Europe with my parents,’’ she says.

‘‘I also had an amazing history teacher insenior school and now at the historical societythere isn’t a person involved who doesn’t have apassion for local history, so they continue to feedthat interest.

‘‘I’ve always really liked European and Amer-ican history, but this is on-the-ground history. It’smore relatable than history about kings andqueens and whatever, so that is one of the things Ireally enjoy about it.’’

Ms Collins has plans to become a historyteacher and says Australia’s history, particular itsearly indigenous past, is too often overlookedand should be a major part of senior schooleducation.

Moonee Valley mayor Narelle Sharpe saidKelsey Collins’ Youth Voice award was well

deserved. “This is a great example of the benefitsvolunteers also get out of their community work.I know the historical society greatly valuesKelsey’s contribution.

‘‘Not only is she helping them to create adigital catalogue and maintain their website, but

she has also taken on an informal coaching role,helping a number of the members to increasetheir computer skills.

‘‘Her efforts demonstrate the positive impactyoung people can have on a community,’’ CrSharpe said.

School treatJessica Santucci, Maria Tsataliou and Kayla Kangalis prepare to serve goodies at the Year 9

Carnival at Rosehill Secondary College, Niddrie. The carnival, held late last month, was the

culmination of weeks of planning by the school’s 175 year 9s and raised $4950 for the Royal

Children’s Hospital Good Friday Appeal and the East Keilor RSL Club. The rest of the school also

benefited, with a chance to ‘Cream the Teacher’ and a range of fun activities over an extended

lunchtime. The carnival was organised as part of year 9 interdisciplinary studies with the help of

staff, including Brooke Hughes and Esilio Beneditti.

A simple planDaniel and Tania Stiglich may have downsized, sleeping in a bedroom half the size of their old one, but it’s all in aid of the bigger picture.

The picture in this case is a two-storey extension comprising three bedrooms, two bathrooms and two living areas in the heart of Footscray.

Formerly owned by a well-loved man in the quiet street, the modest house is being stripped and rebuilt. The Stiglichs are living in it while they rebuild. It’s an experience they’ve gone through before when they renovated their fi rst home in West Footscray, which they sold last year.

Asked what they learnt from their fi rst renovation they look at each other and laugh: “We fi ght a lot.” Tania admits she forgot the stressful parts when looking for another project to renovate. But she has learnt a thing or two

about downsizing and hopes the process will be smoother the second time around.

Sitting on the couch in the small lounge room, the couple say this compromise on lifestyle in the short term will allow them to have the kind of life they want while they’re still young.

“The lure of less of a mortgage at the end of the project was a big driving factor in it,” Daniel says. “We want a life that while we’re still young we can go on holidays and not be tied down to a massive mortgage and still have a really nice house.”

Daniel does have an advantage in that the building company he co-owns specialises in renovations and extensions. To further keep the costs down he hopes again to be able to barter his building skills, helping mates build a pergola or deck in return for their plumbing and electrical nous.

“You spend half a million in Footscray and

it’s liveable, but it’s not beautiful,’’ he says, ‘‘whereas half a million fi ve years ago would get you quite a nice house. You’re spending so much more on an unrenovated house now.”

With Tania’s love of riding horses, the couple did look at getting a block in Gisborne or Sunbury but in the end decided to remain close to the city.

“While we’re young and we don’t have kids it’s just nice to live closer in,” Tania says.

The couple are fi nalising their plans with Dig Design and Daniel hopes it will only take one to two months to get planning approval.

They hope to start work on the house soon after and have it liveable by September. But this will all depend on what spare time they can fi nd with Tania starting up a personal training business and Daniel gearing up to make the national lacrosse team, which heads overseas next year.

Talkin’ Bout MyRenovation shows such as The Block and Grand Designs are some of the

most watched reality TV programs in the country. Tegan Forder talks to three couples about their experiences in each stage of the renovation process.

CHECK BEFORE YOU STARTThe Housing Industry Association reported

that in the year to last September nearly $30

billion was spent on home improvements,

extensions and re-builds. Sometimes things

can go wrong, so Consumer Affairs Victoria

has compiled a checklist for owner builders

before they start work, which includes:

• Seek legal advice before you decide to

become an owner builder

• Get your fi nance approved before you

start

• Discuss the proposed building works

with your insurance company

• Consider completing an owner builder

education course

• Clearly plan and defi ne the scope of

works you want completed by other

builders or tradespeople

• If hiring tradespeople, check the

licensing or registration of electricians,

plumpers, gasfi tters, drainers and

any others who must be registered or

licensed.

Build me upJohn Rowlandson remembers the day he was driving to his newly bought renovation project in a leafy Ascot Vale street because he had to go through a police roadblock. Desmond “Tuppence” Moran had been gunned down outside a nearby delicatessen in July, 2009.

Things are now considerably quieter except for the sound of demolition as John and his fi ancee Emma Barker fi nally get stuck into their renovation, which was held up in planning for more than two years.

“We had our original plans knocked back and we went through the whole building commission and appeals board,” Emma says. “We had to change everything. It’s a completely different house.

“In hindsight maybe the plans we had in the fi rst place weren’t what we wanted. We’re both more comfortable with this house.”

To keep costs down the couple are doing some of the work themselves in partnership with builder Hille’s. “They’ve been really good ... letting us do what we want to do and they do the rest. They are doing until close-up and then we get it back and do everything else like the walls and the fi t-out of the rooms.”

The couple have roped in some of their friends

and family to help and they’ve both got their own skills from having gone through the Scout movement. But they’re fi nding it diffi cult to line up tradesmen for the jobs they are outsourcing. “We are having problems with trying to fi nd someone to come and quote us for plastering and painting. One thing affects the next thing so if you don’t have a painter then your brand new weatherboards may get damaged.”

Finance has been another problem, with a bank reneging on pre-approval for the project. “The week before they pulled out, saying it was too much of a risk,” Emma explains. “They reckon owner/builders default 90 per cent of the time.”

With these issues and the logistics of working around their real jobs – John for an IT company and Emma’s role as a general manager for an online gift shop – not to mention looking after their 15-month-old daughter, it can be trying.

“Without us realising it, it is stressful,” says Emma. “Just agreeing on a bath in a bathroom you haven’t seen or agreeing on the layout of something. You watch shows like The Block and they fi ght all the time and you can understand why when you start to go through it!” �

Finishing touchesTwo home owners who have forgotten the stress and been able to enjoy their renovated and extended two-bedroom house in Newport are Juanita McCleary and Annette Lincoln.

The couple bought the property in 2003 and began a six-month renovation in 2005, redoing the front of the house while maintaining the heritage features and creating a contemporary open-plan and energy-effi cient living area at the back.

The idea behind the renovation was to create a dream home they would spend many years in, but they now want to get away from the hustle and bustle of Melbourne and are getting the house ready to put on the market.

“We may have spent too much on the renovation because we did plan to stay here a long time. But we’ve made something that’s quite unique and hopefully we’ll get a couple of people

who love it,” McCeary says.The trained paramedic turned

photographer says she and Lincoln, an accountant, fell in love with the house

while renting it. “I don’t think I ever wanted to renovate anything but the house was so lovely.”

They also loved how strict the council was in maintaining the heritage features of the houses in the area.

“They were very tough – which is a good thing because it maintains the essence. They [councils] quite like modern extensions as long as you can’t see it from the front. Things like fi replaces you have to keep and if you touch them they would be on you.”

It took the couple about four months to negotiate the plans through two councils – Hobsons Bay and Wyndham – to get both planning and building approval. “Annette dealt with that side of things,” McCleary laughs.

Overall she says it was a positive experience for the pair. “It’s worth the effort. When you get this result it’s worth the effort.”

They have well and truly caught the building bug and now plan to build a new house in Aireys Inlet.

“We want to build a house that’s fully passive heating and cooling. This house is sort of half that and that’s quite what we like, considering the constraints we had. It’s actually worked fairly well here but if you can start from scratch with a lovely north-facing property you can build a house where you practically don’t need heating.’’

McCleary says they’re confi dent of getting a good price for their renovated gem with the market having picked up in the past few months.

“Apparently a federal election makes people buy things. Well, that’s what my real estate agent told me anyway.”

Red-hot Rhonda and all that jazzBY ROBERT FEDELE

Siren: Rhonda Burchmore is bringing her biopic stageperformance about Julie London to the ClocktowerTheatre.

Rhonda Burchmore is everything you’dexpect — bubbly and full of enthusiasm.The popular Australian entertainer is in

town for a one-off show at the ClocktowerTheatre in Moonee Ponds, starring in Cry Me ARiver: The World of Julie London.

Burchmore co-wrote the show with GaryYoung two years ago and toured it acrossAustralia, but the current offering has beentweaked and revamped.

It charts the life of Julie London, one of themost popular female vocalists of the ’50s.

‘‘A lot of people know the story of JulieGarland and those girls, but no one’s ever toldthe story of Julie London so I thought it was theperfect fit for me because I love the style ofmusic,’’ Burchmore beams.

She goes on to describe London as a sexy siren,the glamour redhead of her time who was tomusic what Marilyn Monroe was to film.

‘‘I don’t try to imitate her, but I tell her storyfaithfully against the times of what washappening in the world,’’ she says.

‘‘It’s a very big show. It’s probably the most

demanding role I’ve ever done because I carry thewhole show. It’s 33 songs and dialogue and I’mon stage for two hours . . . but it goes like that.’’

Burchmore, a regular guest on the long-running variety show Hey Hey It’s Saturday andperformer in such big stage productions asMamma Mia and Hot Shoe Shuffle, says thatwhile this solo show has its drawbacks, there arefar more positives to focus on.

‘‘Yes, they [group productions] are easier for somany reasons, such as getting paid a pay packetevery week. This, because I’m also co-producing,is a far bigger risk.’’

She adds: ‘‘That said, artistically it’s a muchbigger pay-off for me when I do something likethis I really enjoy.’’

Burchmore, a lover of ’40s and ’50s Holly-wood glamour, promises the show will transportaudiences back in time.

‘‘Anyone who is a jazz fan will adore it. What Ican guarantee is for the audience to be transpor-ted back to that time.. .’’

Burchmore is nearing 30 years in the industryand has no plans of slowing down.

Asked about the reasons for her longevity insuch a cutthroat industry, she points to drive and

still enjoying what she does as the catalystsbehind success. ‘‘You’re lucky, but you also makeyour own luck. It seems like in a flash it’s nearly30 years that I’ve been doing this and constantlyin work. You look at all the people you startedwith and they’ve either dropped off or there’s aheck of a lot of casualties.’’

So what keeps her chugging along?‘‘I don’t know. It’s pathetic, isn’t it. I’m at my

It’s exciting watching the develop-ment of cafe culture throughoutwest Melbourne. More and more

interesting cafes are opening or havebecome established — The Premises inKensington and Footscray MilkingStation to name two — and the arrivalof Mama Bear (without her Papa Bearand Baby Bear) in Flemington sevenweeks ago, gives this part of the city asmart cafe that goes behind the realmsof fairytales and safely into the securesphere of urbanity and quality.

Mama Bear is at the end of Race-

course Road, on the way to the Show-grounds. It used to be the Mexicanrestaurant Tres Tacos and has beencompletely refitted and dressed instreet art that makes the buildingstand out. It is already proving popu-lar, so on weekends get there early orbe prepared to wait a little while foryour meals. The fact that the friendlystaff tell you this when you sit down is

comforting; you feel that you’re in safehands, with good communicationwith the kitchen.

The menu combines the simple andfancier breakfast and brunch dishes.Eggs are done many ways, includingdelicious scrambled eggs with cara-melised onions, chilli flakes, shavedparmesan and pork and fennel sausage($14.90). Bunch stretches into morecomplex territory with dishes such asgrilled calamari salad with quinoa,sultanas and roast sweet potato($17.90). Keeping on-trend, youmight try a slider ($15.90), the termfor mini-burgers that are easy to ‘slide’down. Mama Bear’s version — thereare two to a serve — are filled withslow-cooked beef cheek and caramel-ised onion, given a kick with theaddition of jalapeno peppers.

A pasta dish of penne with pesto

cream, spinach and chicken is slightlyovercooked, although this usuallycomes with mushrooms and pine nuts.But, for us, the staff were happy toorganise it to arrive without theseingredients. It’s this friendliness andflexibility as well as the good coffee,by Gridlock Roasters, that makesMama Bear not only much better thana fairytale — it’s going to be great to

watch this cool space evolve and writeits own story.

Creating photo albums is a snapAll that’s left to do is write a story, writes Rod Easdown

Some days later the finished albumturns up in the mail, good enough toleave nonchalantly on the coffeetable.

Have you ever seen the children’s booksabout a piglet named Olivia? They’re agreat read, even if you don’t happen to

have a suitably small person around. When ababy named Olivia came into our lives thesebooks were a natural.

And then along came a baby named Kye. Sowhere do you find books about Kye? There’s asolution, of course, and it was put to me by thepeanut gallery gathered to consider the issue. Icould write some.

It turns out this is no longer hard or evenexpensive. Just think laterally.

There’s any number of internet sites that makeup photo albums — you just assemble themonscreen, inserting the pictures you want untilyou have a full album, then send it off into theether with your preferred payment method.

Some days later the finished album turns up inthe mail, good enough to leave nonchalantly onthe coffee table.

I’ve used them to make up albums of holidays,

of Christmases and just favourite pictures.They’re always a buzz.

My favourite is a website called Snapfish;relatively intuitive, reliable and good value. Andit gives me lots of room for captions.

Ah, so now you know where I’m going withbooks about the adventures of the fearless boy-hero Kye.

Just gather the relevant photos (or scans ofillustrations), assemble them in the correct orderand use the caption space under each to run thestory. All that’s left is by far the hardest and mosttime-consuming bit: writing the story. Any ideaswould be appreciated.

Now the album idea has been taken up in aslightly different guise at a website calledpostercandy. This one specialises in assemblingyour photos into collages on a single sheet ofphoto-grade paper. So instead of having acollection of individually framed photos on yourwall or sideboard you have just one frame withlots of pictures in it.

You can gather collections together for eachposter, just as you gather them for albums.

Indeed, were you so inclined you could gathertogether embarrassing photos of Olivia and Kyeas infants and present them as 21st birthday gifts.

My experience is that such ideas are alwaysworth the wait involved.

The bug with postercandy is that you need anaccount with Instagram, a photo-sharing websitefor smartphones and tablets.

But even with a smartphone you face a secondlayer of downloads, agreements and privacyprovisions for a service you may never use.Which to me seems most user-unfriendly,bordering on dumb.

Reason to celebrate: Manager GrantHopkinson, Jodi Galea, DominicMcMullen and Karen Pedler get into the10th birthday spirit.

‘This Friday, from 10amto 2pm, the bank isthrowing a 10th birthdaybash as a way ofthanking its customersand supporters. Like anygood party, there’ll be acake, face painting andentertainment — andPiggy the bank’s mascotwill interact with thechildren as part of acelebration filled withfun.’

When the Flemington Community Bankbranch of Bendigo Bank opened its doorsin March 2003 following a two-year

campaign by a committee of communitymembers, there were high hopes of success.

That hope has been fulfilled, not just throughthe much-needed $150,000 that has been givenback to the community in the form of donationsand sponsorships but by connecting to people at

a grassroots level from all walks of life.Branch manager Grant Hopkinson, who

joined the bank in 2006, explains the bank’sphilosophy and direction.

‘‘Being a Community Bank® branch, we arenot only part of a local network of businesses,but we are very conscious of the role our bankplays in making our community stronger.

‘‘We all know that increased local spendingmeans local businesses like ours are moresuccessful.

‘‘Better still, when we keep our money in thelocal community everybody benefits.”

This Friday, from 10am to 2pm, the bank isthrowing a 10th birthday bash as a way ofthanking its customers and supporters.

Like any good party, there’ll be a cake (with 10candles), face painting and entertainment —and Piggy the bank’s mascot will interact withthe children as part of a celebration filled withfun.

‘‘This heartfelt celebration,’’ says Grant, ‘‘is

made possible by local people making a choiceabout where the profits from their bankingbusiness go. That means that customers benefitfrom competitive products and great service andget the satisfaction of knowing their banking isdirectly contributing to their community.’’

AGENTS’ CHOICE


1 / Honest Quoting 5 / Respect For You & Your Property

You receive a guarantee that the selling price you are quoted will be honest and accurate. If your home sells below the price quoted, you will not be charged any commission. This means you can trust the agent’s quote.

Don’t Sign ANYTHING! Until you are given a guarantee on the quoted selling price.

As your agent we protect your privacy and your reasons for selling. Buyers will never be encouraged to offer a low price for your home. We encourage you to mystery-shop our agency to see how we place such a high importance on respecting home sellers and protecting their interests.

Don’t Sign ANYTHING! Until you are guaranteed that your personal details are protected.

2 / ‘Fair-Go’ Fees 6 / Secure Inspections

Pennisi APPROVED representatives are trained negotiators.This means a better price for your home. The extra you receive should more than cover the selling fee. However, unless you believe you have indeed received the bestmarket price for your home, you can pay us nothing.

Don’t Sign ANYTHING! Until you have a guarantee that you decide how much you pay.

You have our commitment that no one will inspect your home unless they have been identified and they are genuine buyers. You will not have hordes of strangers or neighbours coming for a ‘sticky-beak’. Your personal security is something we take very seriously.

Don’t Sign ANYTHING! Until you are guaranteed no bogus inspections.

3 / No Fees In Advance 7 / Final Selling Price

You do not pay any money in advance for any reason, including Advertising. Until your home is sold you pay nothing. Unless we do what was promised to you, you do not pay anything. This means you cannot lose money if your home does not sell or if you change your mind and decide not to sell.

Don’t Sign ANYTHING! Until you are guaranteed that you pay nothing until your home is sold and you are delighted.

The final selling price for your home will be the best market price available. If any buyer pays less than they were willing to pay, then as your agent we will either pay you the difference or forfeit the selling fee. This means you will not make the common mistake of under-selling your home.

Don’t Sign ANYTHING! Until you are guaranteed that the selling price is the best market price.

4 / Advertising 8 / Jenman Guarantee

Typical real estate advertising can have a major impact on the value of your home. As your agent we will protect the value of your home by only bringing it to the attention of buyers who are genuine and qualified. If advertising sold your home why would you need an agent? Perhaps you may be better off selling without an agent. It’s not as hard as you may think.

Don’t Sign ANYTHING! Until you know the value of your home is protected.

Aside from willingly signing a 16-point Consumer Protection Guarantee, only an APPROVED Jenman agent offers you Neil Jenman’s personal guarantee. No other group of estate agents offers a personal guarantee from their CEO. This means you are assured of the best price and the best service.

Don’t Sign ANYTHING! Until you have Neil Jenman’s Personal Guarantee.

There are hundreds of reasons to sell your home with Pennisi Real Estate,Your approved Jenman Agent. Here are 8.

Kia SUV is versatile and functionalAlistair Kennedy road tests the latest version of the Sorento

Neat and attractive: The seven-seat Kia Sorento is a practical and affordable people mover crossover.

Kia Sorento is the larger of two SUVs fromthe ambitious Korean importer. Thesmaller Sportage is aimed more at the youth

and small family market, while the seven-seatSorento is effectively a crossover people moverwith some off-road ability in the AWD variants.

The latest version of the Sorento was launchedhere in September 2012. Although there wereexternal changes, they didn’t change the overalllook of the vehicle.

In people mover mode the management ofSorento’s interior space is critical and the Kiadesigners have managed to juggle the variouspassenger/luggage permutations nicely. As isinvariably the case with mid-sized seven-seatersthe third row is best left to pre-teen children.

The third row of seats folds flat to provide upto 1047 litres of luggage space with the centreseats in place but drops to 285 litres with all seatsoccupied. The back row seats are split 50/50 toallow some extra seating flexibility. Folding bothrows of rear seats opens the rear up to a van-likecapacity of 2052 litres.

The choice of two- or four-wheel drive is rap-idly becoming the norm in the latest breed ofSUVs, something that makes lots of sensebecause the majority of buyers neither want norneed drive to all four wheels.

Kia Sorento comes with a choice of twoengines, 3.5-litre V6 petrol and 2.2-litre turbo-diesel. Previous criticisms of the Sorento’s rideand handling have been addressed with the use ofultra high-tensile steel contributing to an 18 percent increase in torsional rigidity improving ridecomfort, handling and crash protection.

The seats are comfortable and the ergonomicsfor the driver are very good.

On the road both the petrol and diesel versionsare surprisingly spirited vehicles and hills andrapid overtaking are dispatched with ease.

Kia Sorento is a neat and attractive SUV thatoffers plenty of options for a large family lookingfor a single vehicle that can handle a variety oftasks.

Prices start at $37,490, not including govern-ment or dealer delivery charges.

INBRIEF

EDFLReigning Dick Reynolds medallist Mark

Lynch is at the centre of a clearance

saga. Essendon Doutta Stars is

standing firm on Lynch’s contract for

the coming season, with the former

Southport Sharks on-baller already

twice denied a clearance to join

Northern Football League team

Heidelberg.

TAC CupCalder Cannons played its round two

match against Oakleigh Chargers at

Highgate Reserve on Sunday. For a

report on the match go to

mooneevalleyweekly.com.au

SoccerState leagues kick off this weekend

with most of the Moonee Valley region’s

teams playing at home. Avondale

Heights will start life back in division

two with a home game against Altona

East Phoenix at Doyle St Reserve, while

in division three Essendon United is at

Aberfeldie Park against near neighbour

Maribyrnong Greens. Division rival

Strathmore will host Corio at

Strathnaver Reserve, while Essendon

Royals is on the road at Western

Eagles. All matches start 3pm Saturday.

VTCAStrathmore won the North Division

premiership of Victorian Turf Cricket

Association last month with a 38-run

win against Tullamarine. Strathmore’s

first-innings 224 proved enough to

defeat Tullamarine who were all-out

186. PEGS was not so fortunate in

North A1 however, losing by six wickets

to West Coburg. PEGS made 119

batting first and did have West Coburg

4-80 before a match-winning stand

carried the chase to 7-161 in reply.

VWFLThe Victorian Women’s Football League

will provide much of the talent for a one-

off AFL match between Melbourne and

the Western Bulldogs. The game will be

the curtain raiser for the AFL home-

and-away game between the Demons

and Bulldogs at the MCG. It is the first

time women’s teams will play as AFL

representatives in member club

guernseys. The women’s Melbourne

and Western Bulldogs teams will be

filled via a draft. Players aged 17 and

over from the 2011 All-Australian team,

2012 high performance squad and

2013 state teams will be invited to

nominate for the draft, which will take

place early next month and be

managed by the AFL.

VFLEssendon makes its bow in the VFL on

Friday at QEO in Bendigo against the

Bendigo Gold. For a full report of the
