The Dunolly Kindergarten amazed the community
with all sorts of kid’s fun stuff and yummy BBQ.
People came to watch the first aid demonstration
and Karate show. (Big thanks to everyone).
Special thanks to Philip Ashton for his help in taking
videos shots of the market day.
On a beautiful day of perfect weather we had over 45
stalls along the main street of Broadway. There was a
lot of interest in having permanent spots for the next
six months.
Thanks to Natalie Conlin for the musical
entertainment.
We apologise to the community, and especially the
kids, if they heard any inappropriate language from
one of the local community stall holders (the local
police have been notified for verbal offensive language
in a public place).
Our next market is on 9 November 2014 with other
surprises and fun.

ROSIE’S RAMBLE
What were Mr and Mrs Abbott thinking about when
they named their son Peter?
I saw a very strange poster in a butcher’s shop in
Bendigo the other day. It showed the usual happy
family eating outside and the caption said, ‘You’ll never
lamb alone.’ What is that supposed to mean? I know
when a ewe is giving birth its called lambing. Does this
poster promise every sheep that is lambing a personal
mid-wife? I mentioned it to the young man at the
register and he said it drives him mad. ‘Not only does it
make no sense – it isn’t even a sentence!’
My sister from Geelong came to visit last week
expecting a quiet few days in the country. Alas and
alack (whatever that means). The roosters next door
took it in turns to crow very loudly all night. We
couldn’t hear it on our side of the house, but she
could!. Then of course, the usual trains came rattling
down (or up) the track just at the back of our place.
That wasn’t all – her Optus phone would not pick a
signal no matter where she stood in the backyard!
Fortunately for her sanity, the iPod worked.
Did anyone else keep going in and out of the house to
keep an eye on the eclipse of the moon the other
night? It was a bit too cool to stay outside all the time,
but I saw most of it. Just as the shadow finally covered
the face of the moon, a plane all alight passed
underneath it and a few moments later another plane
passed over the top of the moon. A wonderful
combination of nature and technology. I spoke to my
daughter in Western Australia just after the face of the
moon was covered and she had been doing the same
thing and in spite of the now three hours difference in
time – the eclipse was at the same stage.
There must be an election in the near future – in the
last couple of weeks, for the first time ever, I’ve been
polled – admittedly electronically. All those choices and
no ‘none of the above’.

PERSONAL SAFETY
STANDPIPES
Regarding the issue ‘Decision to Upgrade System for
Standpipes’ reported in The Maryborough Advertiser
on 10 October 2014 (page 12):
As the Councillor for Flynn Ward I will stand up for all
Residents, be they either rural or urban. Yes, $4.00 is a
lot of money to some people and a thousand litres
does not go far when you are providing water for a
family or stock. If people wish to waste $4.00 on a litre
bottle of water so be it. I can nearly bet they won’t be
people who are in the above situation. There are two
sides to every story.

CONGRATULATIONS
Congratulations to the Welcome Record Committee.
The new look Welcome Record looks great. The photos
in particular are terrific, and the print is much clearer.
Once we called it the Yellow Book, then it changed to
the White Book. Now we might have to call it the
Coloured Book.
The only down side is that people who were looking to
find their way into a low key community social activity
could do it through folding the book. Now that will be
no longer possible. Anyone looking for such an activity
might call Lynda at the Dunolly Neighbourhood Centre
to see what is going on up there. Alternatively the Craft
Shop is always happy to have new volunteers.
Well done Welcome Record
Vicky Frizzell
When out and about in public areas one
always needs to be aware of personal
safety. Sometimes (as seen on television)
verbal and physical attacks can be unprovoked and at a
time when you are vulnerable. It is best not to respond
to these incidents but remove yourself from the area
or to a place (such as a shop) where there are other
people.
Police need to be called as soon as it is safe to do so
and the incident and description of the attacker made
to them. Reporting is vital so Police can compile
evidence and link other reports of violence.
Verbal or physical attacks from persons known or
unknown to you is not acceptable and do not feel
intimidated about calling police or making a police
report. Personal safety is vital and your right.

THE WELCOME RECORD
BETLEY
Once there was a little town at Betley. A school,
church, tiny post office, butcher’s shop and Mechanic’s
Institute were there. The old church, used regularly
until the 1990s, is now in private hands and looks well
maintained. The Mechanics Institute is the only public
building left in Betley now. It did host regular dances in
the 1930s as my mother told me she often went there.
For many years it also served as a polling booth.
Thanks to Elsie for this information. It is still functional
because of all the refurbishment it underwent some
years ago, with much of the work done by locals. The
Institute sits overlooking the creek with some beautiful
old gum trees nearby. A walk down to the creek at this
point was out of the question on Sunday due to bare
legs and the worry of unseen snakes in the long grass.
Further south a steep bank led down to the creek past
the remnants of an old pump which had 1953 written
on it. The walk along the rusty waterholes which made
up this part of the creek was rather pretty.
Back in the early 1890s my grandmother and her
siblings used to walk the almost four miles (about six
kilometres) to school at Betley. Much of the walk was
through forested areas and they would often pick the
wildflowers. One of her brothers had polio as a baby
and had to make the 12 kilometre daily round trip on
crutches. On Sunday I had thought to drive the route
they walked, but it was not possible as all the land is
now fenced and I was not sure of my directions. I was
certainly not going to try and walk it. When we came
to Dunolly there was a transported room at the
primary school which was called Betley. Whether that
was the school my grandmother had attended or
whether it was a later replacement I don't know.
Once called Middle Bridge it had been a fruit growing
area, but something changed and now there are no
fruit trees to be seen. But it is a very peaceful place to
contemplate the turning of the universe on a sunny
Sunday.

THE WELCOME RECORD
INFORMATIVE WEEKEND
I was fortunate to be able to attend the CNAV
(Community Newspaper Association of Victoria)
conference over the weekend and thoroughly enjoyed
it as I met many interesting people and talked and
talked about their papers and ours.
Most people were amazed that we published The
Welcome Record weekly and John Ellis, the president
of the association, said he paled at the thought of a
weekly deadline - John produces the Chewton Chat
monthly.
Of the 60 members of the association only six publish
weekly, one fortnightly, many bi-monthly or quarterly
but the majority are published monthly.
I attended a workshop that was run by Carlene Dowie,
the editor of The Carisbrook Mercury. I was very
impressed with the information provided by Carlene
and the discussions generated by the handout she
provided. I will certainly be aiming to implement some
of her ideas in the near future.
As an aside, readers may be interested to hear that
Carlene has edited a book called, ‘Up the Creek and
Back Again’, which contains stories and photographs of
people who were flooded out in January 2011. It also
contains many aerial shots provided by The Bendigo
Advertiser. The book is available at the Maryborough
Newsagency for $20.00.
The presentation of awards was held at the dinner on
Saturday night and as there were three finalists in each
category it took quite a while. The Carisbrook Mercury
was a finalist in two categories – best sports photo and
best community story. The Warrandyte Diary won best
paper and best sports photo plus being finalists in
many other categories. They have recently acquired an
editor who worked for News Ltd and still works as a
freelance reporter; so they had quite an advantage.
The Landsborough and District paper produced
monthly, mainly by one person, won the best editorial.
The subject was the lack of Telstra service in the
district.
The theme of the conference was Embracing Change,
and although the keynote speaker, Don Watson,
addressed this during his talk, he also stressed that not
all change is for the best and he touched on aspects of
the environment and how some experiments are being
carried out on weeds and whether they are such a bad
thing in some areas.
By the end of the weekend I was suffering badly from
information overload but it was a stimulating
experience and I will need time to process all the
information. I was particularly interested to learn that
many of the problems The Welcome Record
8 October 2014
experience, such as lack of content, feedback from
readers, volunteers etc. are also the experience of
many other papers no matter how often they are
published.

On a perfect balmy night, the Maryborough railway
station was lit up and joyous with the sound of excited
children and the colour of vibrant community art. The
chicken didn’t make it all the way down Maryborough
Road, but I was spotted with my butterfly net chasing
the silly chook (the bird, not me!) back and forth from
one side of the road to the other. Is that the truth or a
lie? The Museum of Truth & Lies will be at the
Dunolly Court House on Friday evening 31 October –
and as we know perfectly well, nobody ever lies in a

artist Anna Ashton has done a wonderful job and I
recommend that everyone comes along on the 31
October and share the fun with the children. In fact
Queen Victoria and her chicken would make it a Royal

A DELIGHTFUL AFTERNOON
What a treat we had in Dunolly last weekend on both
afternoons in the recital venue at Buckley’s of Dunolly.
Songs of love and heartache from Porter, Gershwin
and Sondheim: songs I must say we all knew and loved
came from the voices of Amié Brulée and Tim Drylie
accompanied by Graeme Burnham on Rachel’s grand
piano. Graeme is well known in the musical world for
his accompanist and teaching skills. Amié Brulée
sometimes sang in French; tunes we knew like
‘Autumn Leaves’, and Tim has a lovely tenor voice. The
two of them sang duets too. ‘Somewhere’ from the
musical West Side Story was my favourite, but I just sat
and let all the music flow over me. Music to me is a
fundamental part of human nature and to go just
down the road to enjoy it in so grand a scale is heaven
on a stick! We are so lucky to have this come to us in
Dunolly. Thank you Rachel, from the bottom of my
heart. This venue has a wonderful recital every month.
Next month I am sure will be just as good. God willing I
will be there!

THE WELCOME RECORD
PET CARE - WINDSUCKING
OR CRIB BITING
One of the most frustrating things for an owner can be
to have a horse who windsucks. Known variously as a
habit, vice or stereotypy, windsucking is all the more
problematic because there is no single remedial
approach that works for all horses. In fact, some
horses will never stop. The habit is not just annoying
to watch, as it’s associated with a range of physical
problems, including ulcers, colic, dental and
musculoskeletal issues, and poor condition.
Windsucking is known as a stereotypy, which is ‘the
constant repetition of certain meaningless gestures or
movements.’ There is a close link between the
stereotypies of windsucking and cribbing: when a
horse clamps its teeth onto a fence post, stable door
or manger and noisily gulps air, it is cribbing or cribbiting, whereas with windsucking, the horse doesn’t
need a solid object to grip onto. It simply opens the
mouth, contracts the pharyngeal muscles, flexes the
neck muscles and proceeds to swallow or expel air,
usually with a noisy grunting sound. In Australia, the
term windsucking tends to be used for both types of
behaviour.
Windsucking usually develops amongst horses that are
stabled for long periods of time, without opportunity
for free paddock exercise and grazing. In this country,
the majority of windsuckers are ex-racehorses,
although by extending the environmental factor to
include day yards on dirt, we encounter a smattering
of other breeds too. However, the link with stabling is
one of the few things that are truly understood about
the problem. Opinion is divided as to whether this is a
Vol 29 Iss 37 Page 9
mental problem due to boredom and stress of
confinement, or a nutritional one relating to the diet
fed to the stabled horse.
The most common approach to remedy these actions is
to use a windsucking collar, which restricts the throat
when the horse flexes its neck and prevents expansion
of the oesophagus when it attempts to gulp air. These
can prevent the habit, although not every collar works
for every horse due to conformational differences.
There are also collars similar to dog training collars,
which deliver a small static electricity charge as a
deterrent. Some owners find that the horse resumes
windsucking once the collar is removed.

THE WELCOME RECORD
BRIDGET FARMER - PRINTMAKER AT
MALDON MARKET
Bridget has been attending the Maldon Market for a couple
of months now. She brings an interesting and unusual craft
with her. Her current range of work that she has been
working on for about a year started with animals in circular
moon shapes and it wasn't until someone recognised that it
reflected her then pregnant state that she realised where
her inspiration was coming from! Bridget tells me that she
makes lino cuts with an animal or bird theme which then
become designs for her jewellery range.
She started printmaking when she first came to Australia in
2005. Bridget attended a weekend course at the Australian
Print Workshop in Melbourne and immediately felt that she
had finally found the medium she could love working with.
Bridget completed a degree in jewellery and silversmithing
at Edinburgh College of Art and although she didn't work in
precious metal, it feels good to be working in this area once
again.
Bridget also makes etchings which she calls her 'serious
work'. She exhibits these with galleries and sells online. She
sometimes has them at the market too, but they are in a
higher price range.
Since having her wee baby Bridget doesn't have as much
time to make her etchings as they are much more time
consuming than her lino prints and jewellery, but that's ok,
Bridget says it's lovely spending time with him too and she
will get back to etching again one day soon.
To make a lino print she carves out the design with a
linocutting tool into the lino. She then inks up the lino with
a thick sticky ink on a roller. She places the inked up lino
onto paper and pulls it all through her printing press. If she
wants another colour layer she then carves more lines out
of the lino and inks it in a different colour and so on and so
forth.
She designs her jewellery and after they have been laser cut
and etched she hand paints them.
Bridget's big Melbourne event this year is 'Finders Keepers'
at the Exhibition Building on 17 and 18 October.
If you would like to see more of Bridget's amazing work you
can find her in The Shire Gardens on Sunday 12 October in
site number 40A.
The market starts at 9am and finishes at 2pm. It is held on
the corner of Fountain & High Streets and in the Shire
Gardens.

Coordinator on 0419 102 723.

Messy Church will meet at 4.30pm on Wednesday 22
October. This is our Uniting Church programme for
children in our district to come along a share a light
tea, craft work and a time to be together and have a
little Bible story told to them. They must have a carer
with them. All this for a gold coin donation. It does
not matter what denomination the carer or the child
is.
Our Op Shop is open on Tuesday, Thursday and

MONSTERS UNDER THE BED
‘Daddy! Daddy!’ squealed Loriexx, her two heads and
six eyes bobbing, swirling in a heightened state of
panic.
‘What is it? What’s all the commotion? Do you know
what time it is?’ Her father, Vanstexx, slammed on the
bedroom light with a flipper and glared enquiringly at
his daughter.
‘There’s a monster under the bed,’ she said pitifully.
‘Now you know we’ve talked about this, they are just
nightmares.’
‘No! No!’ Loriexx thrashed her sixteen spines in
consternation. ‘There really is one there, please believe
me!’
Vanstexx frowned. ‘Well we’ve never had one in the
house before.’ He lowered his considerable bulk to the
floor and peered under the bed. Sure enough, there
was the monster.
His several stomachs churned at the sight. It was
hideous. The creature was stick-thin, white as a sheet,
although the top of it was a different colour which
made it resemble a common pencil. It only had four
limbs and was emitting a high-pitched chattering noise.
Worst of all it had little smell and there was no mucous
to speak of!
‘Is it there? Is it there?’ Loriexx bounced up and down
on the bed impatiently.
Vanstexx sighed. ‘Yes I’m sorry Darling, you were right,
I’ll dispose of it right now.’ So saying, he aligned his
largest pincer with what he thought was the head and
snipped it clean off.
‘I’ll call the pest-controller in the morning. You’re right
though, what a nightmare! These things roam in packs
and cause wanton damage wherever they go.’ The
body dangled from one of his suction-sups as he
slithered from the room.
Vanstexx glanced at the ugly limp carcass as he carried
it away and shook his heads. ‘Humph,’ he snorted.
Humans, they were just such a nuisance.

Loddon Shire plans to mark national Children’s Week
later this month by hosting a 45 minute West African
drum and dance workshop for 72 four-year-olds from
Council’s five kindergartens around the Shire.
The event, planned for Thursday 23 October at Boort

Loddon Shire Media Release
Council staff donned crazy hats last week (Oct 9) to support
mental health research as part of its healthy workplace
initiative.
Loddon Shire Council is participating in the Achievement
Program which is a Healthy Together Victoria initiative,
focusing on mental health and wellbeing, quitting smoking
and participating in physical activity.
The hat day party was a fun way to shed light on the mental
health message to staff.
Staff showcased their hats at a morning tea to raise funds
for Australian Rotary Health research projects to find
preventions, treatments and cures.
Funds raised support people affected by depression,
anxiety, schizophrenia, anorexia and other serious mental
illness conditions.
Current research studies include identifying and addressing
anxiety in toddlers, a school-based positive thinking
program, trials of a suicide prevention campaign for young
people, and a mobile phone-based intervention for
improving mental wellbeing in young adults with diabetes.

Slips, trips and falls can happen to anyone but they are
more common and more significant as we get older,
because we are more likely to injure ourselves. Falls
are a common problem for older people and are often
the reason people are admitted to hospital or move to
a nursing home or hostel.
In Victoria, about 10,000 older people present to
emergency departments with fall related injuries. The
good news is that many falls are preventable and
injuries from falls can be minimised.
People fall for a variety of reasons. In some cases a
number of factors combine to cause a fall such as poor
vision, weaker muscles, stiff joints, poor balance, less
feeling in feet and legs, multiple health problems;
some types of medication can increase your risk of
falling, inappropriate foot wear and environmental
risk factor such as poor lighting in the house, slippery
surfaces, trip hazards like cluttered walk ways, electric
cords, rugs and mats, pets.
Falls can be prevented by having regular check-ups
with your doctor to ensure medical conditions are well
managed, improve physical activity by consulting a
physiotherapist about balance and strengthening
exercises or activities that best suit you and to
manage any pain you might have. They can also advise
you about appropriate walking aids.
Have your eye sight checked once every two years.
Consult a podiatrist if you have painful or swollen feet,
pins and needles or if you have any change in shape of
your feet, wear comfortable, firm fitting shoes.
Make your home and surroundings safer to move
around in and consult an occupational therapist to
improve safety and accessibility in your home.
It is not possible to predict if, how, where and when
you might fall or how little or much you might be
injured.
Even though most falls don’t result in serious injury,
many people are unable to get up without help.
Therefore, it is important to think ahead and make a
plan of things you can do to safeguard yourself.
This will help you to feel not only safer, but more
confident and in control.

THE WELCOME RECORD
Although Dunolly is a small town, we don’t lack
for the ‘Coffee Culture’. We are lucky to have
three places to indulge in caffeine. Two places,
the Dunolly Bakery and The Golden Grain, are
conveniently open on a daily basis for
breakfast, lunches, snacks etc. Wright on
8 October 2014
Broadway is open Friday - Sunday 10.00am 5.00pm with a special Saturday dinner once a
month. All have outdoor settings in which to
enjoy the sunshine while sipping your lattes
(or drink of choice). Below are some locals
doing just that.
