Perth/Stirling split the ‘worst case scenario’
Vincent ‘doomed’
by DAVID BELL
VINCENT looks to be split
down the middle in what the
mayor describes as “a very
poor outcome” for ratepayers.
Alannah MacTiernan has heard
Perth will gobble up the bit to
Bulwer or Vincent Street. The rest
will be swept into Stirling.
She would have preferred all of
Vincent going into the capital, to
protect its growing inner-city vibe.
“[Stirling’s] a very big council,
it deals with a lot of suburban
issues, it is fundamentally
will be a very poor outcome.”
Ms MacTiernan isn’t alone:
Stirling mayor David Boothman
doesn’t like the Solomonesque
solution either.
“To be quite frank, I think
Stirling’s big enough,” he says.
“We don’t need another aquatic
centre, and we believe there’s a
level of debt that would come with
that.”
Cr John Carey, who chairs the
Beaufort Street Network, says a
split is “the worst-case scenario for
our local community”.
“It just would not make any
sense to put inner-city areas like
Highgate, parts of Mount Lawley
around Beaufort Street, and
Angove Street, into a suburban
council. It seems crazy that we’ve
got this incredible inner-city
vibrant area that’d be put under
the City of Stirling which has a
He says Stirling is more
conservative than Vincent,
between Stirling’s end of Beaufort
Street and Vincent’s (a divide that
locals call the “Berlin Wall”).
“I’ve been doorknocking in
the local community and I don’t
get any residents coming to me
saying ‘yes I want to be in the city
of Stirling’.
“The boundaries of the council
should be guided by communities
of interest: That is, how are the
locals connected, interwoven, to be
a community.”
Ms MacTiernan is due to
meet with the local government
minister on Tuesday to get the
drawn.
GATHERING 60,000 followers in 10
weeks, Lost Perth would have to be
one of the most popular Facebook
pages in town.
The site collects old images and stories
of Perth, focusing on the way things used
to be and the old buildings and businesses
that have disappeared, and it’s captured
Perth’s imagination lock stock and barrel.
The bloke behind the site, 49-year-old
“I didn’t want anything,” he chuckles.
“I wanted to do it for fun.”
The former Navy cook says he’s
always been interested in history and
having been adopted and lost a couple of
family members, he always found himself
looking to the anchors of the past, the way
things used to be, for comfort.
“People always talk about the past,
people always talk in the past tense,” he
says.
Two hours after launching the page
1000 had signed up. It grew to 7000 the
clocks in at 63,800.

Perennial council critic
Debbie Saunders, whose nom
de plume was Bob Jones, was
blocked after what council CEO
John Giorgi claims was a, “series
of negative comments (across
a variety of matters on our
Facebook page)”.
Unconcerned by claims he’s
impeding on free speech, Mr
Giorgi says the page, “aims to
promote council o erings with a
focus on positive, ‘social’ content
that benefit[s] the community”.
from
When Vincent first published
its rogues gallery it left out
middle names and suburbs and,
in all but one case, ages.
In the weeks since it’s
endeavoured to provide more
details but of the five new
names posted since, none have
ages or suburbs and one—Liam
Williams—had no middle name.
Curtin university journalism
head Joseph Fernandez says
there is “room for confusion
so that innocent people whose
names resemble those named on
the website might be mistaken
for the o enders”.
“It is enough for the person
suing for defamation to show
that ordinary reasonable persons
thought that the published name
referred to him,” he says.
“Also, if the objective of this
exercise is to actually shame the
o ender then such an outcome
can only be achieved if the
o ender is clearly identifiable.”
Council CEO John Giorgi says
the council’s not doing anything
di erent to newspapers.
He says sta attend court but
not all information is mentioned
during hearings.
“Note that before launching
the page, the city’s received legal
advice concerning this matter,”
he adds.

• One of the brothels you can ask Tom Tom to find.
Root route
by STEPHEN POLLOCK
SATELLITE navigation
company TomTom allows a
list of 18 Perth and Fremantle
brothels to be made available
to drivers as “points of
interest” on its WA map.
The list—created by Perth
cabbie Phillip McGree— is
free and can be downloaded
by anyone with a compatible
TomTom who connects to its
online update service.
It is unclear if TomTom
validates or regulates user
uploads, although there is a
“report as o ensive, copyrighted
etc” feedback option beside the
POI download.
The brothel POI is rated 3.5
out of 5 by TomTom users.
Prostitution in WA is legal but
operating a brothel is not.
For years WA police have
turned a blind eye to bordellos
and unofficially regulated them,
much to local councils’ and
residents’ chagrin.
In 2011 the Barnett
government attempted to
introduce new prostitution
laws to ban brothels from
residential areas and make
them legal in limited
industrial zones. The bill
failed to gain political traction
and was dropped from the
government’s legislative
agenda following the March
election.
Veteran cabbie Stephen
Satchell says he drives around
30 people—five per cent of his
fares—to Perth knocking shops
every month.
“I’d say that about 75 per
cent of my brothel fares are
FIFO workers in their mid-20s,
the rest are middle-aged men
on interstate business.
“The majority of them go at
the weekend, between 2am and
6am on a Sunday morning, but
I get a few randy ones during
the week as well.
“Langtrees in Burswood and
International 300 in East Perth
are my most popular dropo s.”
The Voice gave TomTom
two days to comment, but the
company didn’t get back to us.

by STEPHEN POLLOCK
THREE mature native gum
trees have been poisoned
along the Maylands
foreshore. Two have died,
one struggles on.
Bayswater council sta
suspect homeowners of killing
the trees at Berringa Park
Wetlands in order to get a better
view of the Swan River, but
proving it is hard going.
“The drill holes—typically
used to assist in poisoning
trees—and ringbarking
strongly suggest the attack
was a deliberate attempt to kill
the trees,” Swan River Trust
manager Stephen Lloyd says.
The council voted to
erect a 1.5m sign at Berringa
Park, reminding people that
destroying trees is a criminal
o ence. The maximum penalty
for killing a tree is $5000.
Maylands Labor MP Lisa
Baker describes the attacks as
“selfish”.
“Tree poisoning is a direct
attack on the right of the entire
community to enjoy and have
access to beautiful parklands
amongst our suburbs,” she says.
“I support the SRT and
the Bayswater city council
in measures taken to combat
this selfish act of destruction
of public property and
our community’s natural
environment.”

Cr Sonia Turkington is more
circumspect: “I support council’s
decision to provide in principle
support to the Swan River Trust
to erect a sign where a tree has
been poisoned.
“However, I do not support
groups that come in and plant
vegetation that will deliberately
take away the views of the river
which people enjoy.”
After a tree was poisoned
in Bardon Park in 2008, council
erected two similar signs.

discrimination
THE federal Liberal candidate
for Perth, Darryl Moore, is
“mystified why so many people
are interested in same-sex
marriage” (Voice, July 21, 2013).
Mr Moore, how would you feel
if your country denied you the right
to marry the person you love, the
person with whom you share the
most important part of your life?
Lack of marriage equality directly
a ects the lives of many voters,
their families and friends. The
Liberal Party refuses to acknowledge
and accept the fact that same-sex
marriage is supported by a majority
of Australians.
Legal recognition of same-sex
marriage is a change that is opposed
by a dogged minority, whose lives
will not be adversely a ected in any
way when it comes to pass. Marriage
equality is a human rights issue in
which Australia lags embarrassingly
behind a rapidly growing list of other
nations.

Notification Of Night Works On Vincent Street
On Tuesday 6 August works will commence to install a new electricity
transmission cable underneath Vincent Street, to reinforce the supply of power
to the urban rail network.
Due to heavy traffic flow on Vincent Street the works have been scheduled to
occur at night after the rail closures, between the following dates:
Tuesday 6 August to Sunday 18 August
Between the hours of 7:30pm – 5:30am
There will be a trench crossing the road between Morriston Street and Cleaver
Street that will be backfilled once works are complete.
The work will be undertaken in accordance with an approved traffic
management plan. As such, please note that during these times there will be
delays to traffic.
Construction crews will do their best to keep noise levels to a minimum to
avoid any disturbance to residents and the planned works are not expected to
affect the power supply in your area.

RE: “Mini blocks spook Vincent”
(Voice, July 21, 2013). The City
of Vincent could oppose or
compromise, but it is greedy for
rates, which is the truth of the
situation.
No thought of what we want,
no preservation of ensuing trees,
no thought to parking and bins
on verges. And will it spend extra
money coming in on underground
power? No.
Robert Hart
Anderson St, Mt Hawthorn
The Ed says: Local elected councils
have less and less say about these
issues, Robert. Developers often appeal
unfavourable decisions to the unelected
SAT (and get sympathetic hearings)
while decisions on big developments are
now made by the unelected DAPs. The
days of local communities determining
their own local planning amenity are
over.
Moore info
please
IT is good that federal Liberal
Perth candidate Darryl Moore
has finally made clear his strong
opposition to marriage equality.
However, he has not fully
explained himself to voters.
Opposition leader Tony Abbott
has said his party-room will decide
the issue of a conscience vote on this
matter after the election. That means
if Mr Moore is elected as the Member
for Perth he will have a say later this
year on whether or not the cCalition
will allow a free vote for its members,
just as the Labor Party already does.
The voters of Perth now know Mr
Moore will personally vote against
same-sex marriage, but he has not
said whether he supports a free vote
for his colleagues. Where does he
stand on that?
I call on Mr Moore to make his
position clear before the election.

The Ed says: We’ve put distribution
on the case, Ron.
Magic million
I SUGGEST for starters that
Ron Willis and his concerned
“Voicelanders” (Voice, July 21,
2013) get behind the City of
Stirling’s “Million Tree Initiative”
and, after they have exhausted
their e orts with this, they can
get involved with the city’s
“Adopt a Park” program.
If every resident ensured there
was a street tree or two outside their
house and nurtured the tree until it
established itself, a big battle would
be won. I have encouraged Stirling
to market its million tree initiative
plan through schools by encouraging
students to get their families
involved.
Another incentive could be to give
a small rates rebate to local property
owners if a tree is still in place and
growing, say after three years.
I am a big supporter of putting
trees back and local councils should
undertake a street tree audit and

for Perth
We have a great community and I am dedicated to working with you
all to make Perth a place where everyone gets an opportunity
to have a good life.
I will fight for public transport, reducing congestion on our roads, better
schools and a bigger share of Commonwealth money for Perth and WA.
And I am determined to deal with the very real issue of climate change.
Federal Labor has committed $500 million for rail projects in Perth and
over a billion dollars to improve our roads in the eastern corridor.
I will bring the experience, strength and determination to the task of
delivering these projects for our area.
Working together, we can really get things happening in Perth.

U-turn on Eid
by STEPHEN POLLOCK
THE Barnett government is
set to do a u-turn and allow
Muslims to celebrate Eid at
Kings Park.
In March, the Botanic
Gardens and Parks Authority
refused an application for
a 2000-people Eid-al-Fitr
celebration at the Saw Avenue
picnic area, arguing capacity
for the area was limited to 500
(Voice, March 9, 2013).
BGPA chief Mark Webb had
said the popular community
event had outgrown the picnic
area and could create parking
and traffic snarls.
The decision threatened to
bring to an end a trouble-free 19year tradition that is enormously
popular with local families.
Following further discussions
with the BGPA the Islamic
Centre is now planning to
submit a revised application and
management plan for the event.
“Recognising the importance
of the Eid celebration to the
Islamic community, there has
been ongoing constructive
discussions between Kings
Park and the Islamic Centre to
find a suitable location for the
Eid prayers,” WA multicultural
interests office spokesperson Liz
Rehfeldt said.
The BGPA says Hale Oval,
with a capacity for 2000, is
shaping up as a possibility.
The Voice contacted the centre
but it didn’t get back to us.
The BGPA estimates 4500
attended Eid-al-Fitr and 4000
attended Eid-al-Adha in Kings
Park last year.
Backers hope for no bitter after

these added advantages over
synthetic floor finishes:
t They are much better for your health
t Less expensive initially & in the long run
(only $3.50m2 for Jarrah)
t Responsible to the environment
t No animal testing. They are ‘plant based’
t Much more enjoyable to live with

No relief for
addiction
volunteers
by STEPHEN POLLOCK
A VOLUNTEER group that
helps people overcome
narcotics addiction has been
refused a discount on venue
hire in Maylands.
Bayswater city council is
charging Narcotics Anonymous
the full rack rate of $3120 for a
three-day hire of the RISE for an
August conference.
Cr Graham Pittaway was
unrepentant, saying the council
was not a “bleeding hearts club”.
NA usually books a place
in Yokine for $1000 but it was
unavailable.
Cr Alan Radford says the
group has nothing to do with
Bayswater and as a state-wide
body doesn’t merit a discount.
But Cr Chris Cornish says the
council has previously provided
financial support to national and
statewide groups, including the
WA cancer council, Telethon and
the Fred Hollows Foundation.
“We dish out donations left,
right and centre—didn’t we give
a donation to a frisbee group—
and here we are knocking back
a worthy organisation who are
trying to address a huge problem
in society,” he told colleagues.
The self-funded NA, run by
volunteers, relies on donations
to survive and a hat is passed
around after every meeting.
It provides a 12-step program
for recovering drug addicts

A REHEARSAL studio in Mount
Hawthorn has been given an
eleventh hour stay of execution.
Vincent sta wanted to close down
Dream Studio on Oxford Street and had
recommended councillors axe it.
A sta report said the business
doesn’t “protect and enhance the health,
safety and general welfare of the city’s
inhabitants”.
It says there aren’t enough parking
bays and there was a recent noise
complaint.
Sta ers had given owner JB Poole
“numerous extensions to deadlines” to
get back to them with more info for a
retrospective approval, the report says.
It also notes a spotted history of
operating without approvals and
outside approval conditions.
The place looked likely to get the
chop but, just hours before the council
meeting, the item was deferred as Cr
Ros Harley moved for a compromise to
save the longstanding business.
Cr Harley wants Mr Poole to provide
an acoustic report, paved car bays, and
cash-in-lieu payments for any required
carbays he’s unable to squeeze in.

Cr Marlene Robinson says
drugs touch many lives in
Bayswater and it doesn’t matter

Cr Sonia Turkington was

“Goodness knows, drugs are a

killer.”
Around 600 people

ALL RESIDENTS PLEASE BE AWARE & PLAN AHEAD!
EVERYONE WILL BE AFFECTED – EVEN IF YOU DON’T CATCH THE TRAIN!
Plan ahead to avoid the congestion around Vincent as a result of the train shutdowns. Pump
up your bike tyres and try cycling to work or leave 30minutes earlier and consider walking if
you can – check out the City’s TravelSmart map for cycle and walking routes.
The Joondalup line train will cease at Leederville Train station.
» If you work in the CBD, it’s best to catch a Train Replacement Bus
leaving from the Vincent side of Leederville train station.
» If you work in West Perth, catch the new Green CAT which leaves from the West Leederville
side of the train station (and goes through West Perth to the Esplanade).

Bayswater city council has voted to modify the new
Tranby Jetty to accommodate larger commercial vessels,
after the company expressed interest in making the
heritage-listed house a stop-o point.
Cr Sonia Turkington says the National Trust has
struggled to attract visitors to the circa 1839 house, and
the cruise visits will provide a major tourism fillip for
Maylands. “We have a responsibility to bring tourists into
Bayswater,” she says.
Council is building a $247,000 Tranby Jetty after the
original fell into disrepair. It is expected to be ready by
November.
Cooks’ CEO Pauline McAlinden says the plan is to
o er daily cruises to Tranby, with 15-minute stopovers.
“It’s early days so we’ll need to talk with Bayswater
council and Tranby House about what we can do,” she
says. “The main priority is to get people back to the
house and give it exposure.” The jetty will be open to all
commercial vessels but the council will not charge a fee in
order to avoid complications over state funding rules.
The item was brought up at the last minute and several
councillors wanted more time to examine the likely
impact of a larger vessel. “We want to use the river; but
wisely,” Cr Mike Anderton says. “I have a background
in marine engineering and I think we need to do a study
on what impact these larger vessels may have on the
riverbank.

One scheme.
One focus on individuals.
One commitment to lifelong support.
From 1 July, Australia’s current support system for people
living with disability is being progressively replaced with
DisabilityCare Australia. This new scheme will help provide
a better quality of life for Australians with a significant and
permanent disability, and for their families and carers too.
What’s new about DisabilityCare Australia?
DisabilityCare Australia is a new way of funding personalised
support for people with disability. As well as looking at
a person’s immediate needs, it will take a lifelong approach
and enable people with disability to have choice and control
over their supports. It will focus on early intervention,
recognising that timely support can minimise the impact
of a disability on individuals, families and carers. Assistance
will be provided at the right time, rather than only once
people reach crisis.
himself. Since then, a number of contractors have
been charged and made to pay restitution but the
CCC appears in no hurry to publish an official
report.
“The commission doesn’t have a date when a
report on the city of Stirling will be tabled in the
parliament,” CCC spokesperson Owen Cole told
the Voice.
Former Stirling councillor Paul Collins says
that until the report is published, a cloud of
uncertainty will hang over the council: “It is now
more than three years since the CCC investigation
began and will be three years this November
since public hearings were held which identified
a number of flaws in the city’s procurement of
goods and services,” he says. “One witness called
to give evidence committed suicide and a number
of criminal convictions have since been attained
against di erent persons but we still do not a have
a final or even interim report.
“The CCC’s report will be very important in
determining full accountability at the city for the
misconduct but this will be harder to achieve the
longer the CCC takes.”
In 2009 Mr Collins, along with members of
the council’s audit committee, pushed for an
independent audit after noticing contracts over
$10,000 hadn’t been put out for tender. Their
probing kickstarted a wider investigation that
uncovered alleged rorting, which led to the CCC’s
involvement.
Mayor David Boothman says the council has
worked closely with the CCC to significantly
reduce the risk of future rorts.
“In terms of financial checks and balances we
are now the benchmark by which other councils in
Australia measure themselves against.”
PROBLEMS WITH
YOUR PLUMBING?
Who is eligible?
DisabilityCare Australia will help people who have
a significant and permanent disability and who need
assistance with everyday activities. This includes people
whose disabilities are attributed to intellectual, cognitive,
neurological, sensory, or physical impairment, or a
psychiatric condition.
Will I lose my current support?
No. Your current arrangements will stay in place until you
have met DisabilityCare Australia to discuss your needs.
Will it affect my Disability Support Pension?
No. Your Disability Support Pension will not be affected.

A PHOTO of dog poo has been
handed to Vincent city councillors
by a ratepayer deeply unhappy with
the approval of a block of units and
offices in North Perth
The Albert North Perth—an eightoffice, 11-unit project on Albert Street—
was initially deferred when it went in
front of council in December 2011.
The WA heritage council spoke
against the development saying it would
negatively impact on the neighbouring
primary school’s heritage value, and the
school P&C was concerned it’d block the
library’s natural light.
After some rejigs it was approved by
councillors in February 2012.
Now, as site works commence, three
locals are opposing the project, asking
councillors to reconsider the approval
almost 18 months after it was given the
thumbs up.
Neighbour Hesson Razavi says it’ll
block out most of the sunlight from his
backyard.
Nearby resident Paul O’Brien
says community consultation failed
because he’d only found out about the
development from his neighbours.
Local Craig Willis says it shouldn’t

A PAPERWORK snafu has seen
trees outside the Albert North
Perth development severely
overpruned.
Locals were concerned when they
spotted the trees had been given a
drastic haircut.
Council CEO John Giorgi says it
was a mistake that so much was cut
o . Vincent had received a request “to
cut back the trees from the property
line” and added “this is a normal
request from residents/developers,
which is actioned on an ongoing basis
throughout the city”.
The council engaged a contractor
and a crew came around to lop o
some branches.
“Unfortunately, the contractor’s
paperwork contained an error and

another crew attended the same job and
undertook additional pruning.
“The city’s officers are currently
liaising with the contractor regarding this
matter to determine what action will be
taken.” He says the trees’ shapes were
already compromised by powerlines.
the powerful state administrative tribunal
which handles planning appeals.
She says the eight offices instead of
four are a non-issue: The council approval
covered a set amount of space for a
particular use and how it was divvied up
wasn’t important.
The mayor says she found it hard to
believe anyone could’ve been unaware of
this project given the attention it received
and the information that went out.
The $63,000 from the project’s per
cent for art cash looks likely to be spent
on a 2.8m 300kg reading light by artist
Robin Yakinthou, subject to input from
locals (as it’ll be put on public land near
the school and not on the development
site). Guiding Light”, aims to reflect an
education theme for the school next door.
It was the artist’s concept sketch of
the lamp that led Mr Willis to hand dog
poo pictures to councillors, asking them
to seriously consider the turds as an
alternative to the giant lamp.
Mr Willis was annoyed he’d had
a meeting set up with council CEO
John Giorgi, who didn’t show and sent
minions along instead. “The lack of
respect was pretty ordinary,” Mr Willis
said. The council took his questions
on notice and will undoubtedly work
feverishly on a response.

A new level of sophistication
Upon arrival at Amani Wine Bar you’re
met at the door by a charming hostess
who shows you to your table.
That’s right, full table service.
Welcome to a whole new level of
sophistication, right here in the heart
of Leederville’s Oxford Street district
(opposite the Luna).
Of course, there’s also the black
velvet settee or the long banquette if
you prefer, where you can watch the
bar staff shake, rattle and roll their
cocktail magic.
Amani drips with class on every
level: From its Manhattan-inspired
monochromatic decor and long bar, to
European mirrors and mood lighting to
exemplary levels of personal service.
Aficionado will appreciate the depth

free to ask questions—the staff know
their stuff). It’s not all serious though—
with wine cocktails and punches lots
of fun to share (the Kentucky Rose
and Passion of the Crusta are two inhouse faves) and there’s plenty of great
beers and ciders too. With winter upon
us, mulled wine has made a welcome
return and where better to enjoy it than
next to Amani’s open fire?
The world-class menu is designed
to excite and to share, with Chef Josh
Kucharick passionate about in-season
ingredients.
Josh’s fine-dining share plates offer
a variety of first-class fl avours and
textures to taste with friends, whether
lunch or dinner for two, a pre- or postmovie wine and platter or a full-menu
function for many (with special dietary
requirements happily catered for).
With free wi-fi for customers, Amani’s
also the perfect place to visit for a quick
wind-down or business lunch.

JENNY D’ANGER
JE
HE Coode Street Cafe
is tucked away in the
back bits of Bayswater’s
slice of Mt Lawley but the
secret has been well and truly
out for years now.
On a rainy Thursday
lunchtime the place was heaving
with customers. And little
wonder, with the cafe groaning
under the weight of a slew
of “best breakfast” awards
collected since 2007.
Breakfast, lunch, co ee and
cake: Coode Street does it all
brilliantly.
Take one look at the food
cabinets with the contents
glistening like Crown jewels and
promising a sweet or savoury
gem, and it’s no wonder.
The range of cakes
immediately caught my
attention: Too vast to mention,
but suffice to say I wasn’t going
to overdo the savouries.
Lit up like a Broadway play
there were plenty of these on
display too, including chicken
pies, bacon and leek tarts,
smoked salmon, goats cheese
and asparagus tarts and quiches.
Apart from a couple of sweet
things everything is made on the
premises, owner Terry Burgon
told the Voice.
The cafe started as a deli 20
years ago and “converted” from
there, he says, adding it’s been a
long process.
Getting down to business I
pointed to the sweet potato and
spinach tart ($15.50).
The mix of sweet potato and
the sharpness of feta, with a
perfectly cooked pastry case was
great, as was the homemade
beetroot and pumpkin salad it
came with.
It was “buyer beware” for
Dave, who’d ordered the tuna
patty ($15.50) without reading
the fine print.
They were delicious but, with
feta mixed through, weren’t a
suitable choice for my cheeseallergy a icted man.
The waiter was a delight,
whipping away the patty and in
no time returning with a couple
of free-range poached eggs on
toast.
“Creamy,” hubby declared,
his happy smile restored.
The lemon zingers ($7.50)
we washed our food down with
were terrific, the sharpness of
the lemon winning out over
the sweetness of the apple, and
a pleasing ginger “zing” after
taste.
Time to revisit the cake
cabinet. “It’s like a Cherry Ripe,”
the waiter said as I eyed o a
slice of the lovebite ($7.50).
One of the few cakes not
made at the cafe, it came from
North Fremantle sweeties
Rawsome.
Based on the Paleo diet
they’re raw, gluten-free, grainfree, dairy-free, egg-free,
sugar-free—and one would
think taste-free, but how wrong
one would be. A Cherry Ripe it
was, on steroids, a rich chocolate
delight, topped with shredded
coconut. If this is good for you,
sign me up.
D’Angerous went for the
lemon meringue ($7), and
reckoned it could have been
sharper but that didn’t stop him
eating the lot.
Two hours passed in a flash
as we talked, ate and watched
the rain fall gently over the treelined street from the warmth of
our window seat. Blissful.

July 27 - August 3, 2013
ARIES (Mar 21 – Apr 20)
Mars is loitering in Cancer. There must
still be something to get in the world of
emotion. Perhaps you are feeling pensive about some
of the reactions you have had in the past that you
aren’t keen to repeat. Some kind of an awakening is
happening. Old habits aren’t working. Renew.
TAURUS (Apr 21 – May 20)
Venus has moved into fellow earth sign,
Virgo. To feed off the sense of satisfaction
this brings, take yourself into the bush and look at
the wonders of the natural order. The spine of a leaf,
the colours of a rock, the texture of a tree, is where
the food of natural beauty lies. Savour it.
GEMINI (May 21 – June 21)
Mercury is staying in Cancer for a
little while longer. That means there’s
a whole lot of emotion colouring your view of the
world. As much as you would like to put up a wall
and pretend it isn’t there, it is – and it will be. till you
stop resisting. Be a little muddy, vulnerable and open.
CANCER (June 22 – Jul 22)
There’s an inordinate amount of
energy fl owing through the water
signs, of which you are one. That means the current
of emotion you have been dipping your toes in, just
got deeper and stronger. Even the heat of the Aries
Moon can’t shunt you from following your feelings.
LEO (Jul 23 – Aug 22)
The Sun has moved into Leo, which
sets a large portion of your being to
rest. There is still however, a large
torrent of energy fl owing through the emotional water
signs. There is still a great need for a rudder. You aren’t
in it up to your ears any more, but balance is required.
VIRGO (Aug 23 – Sept 22)
Venus has moved into Virgo. The goddess
of love is walking through your garden.
This is an important time to get it, that there’s no
confl ict between simple pleasure and your spirit’s
longing. The spiritual and the mundane are two
poles of the same energy. Kindy leads to uni.
LIBRA (Sept 23 – Oct 23)
It’s a tricky time for Libran’s. Venus is in
Virgo. She’s grounding love but to air
signs that feels like a bit of a downer. It’s a misconception but one to be worked through. Flight isn’t the only
pleasurable sensation. You may be called on to offer
confl icting parties some sage advice.
SCORPIO (Oct 24 – Nov 21)
It’s a winning time for water signs.
Life is supporting feeling above all
else. Emotionality and feeling are two very different
things. Don’t mistake one for the other. Feeling
comes with awareness - and is wise. Emotionality is
cathartic and wild but as blind as a fl ying fox.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 – Dec 21)
There is an interesting astrological
clash going on between those parts
of ourselves that feel deeply and those that skim
across the surface, reacting impetuously to all that
is in front of our eyes. Your job is to go a little deeper
and resolve this tension with added understanding.
CAPRICORN (Dec 22 – Jan 19)
There’s a big question bubbling up.
It’s to do with the issue of how to be
yourself without getting so hardline that you shut
other people out. In the process of protecting
integrity, certain other precious qualities get lost.
There are other ways to go about this. Think
beyond the box.
AQUARIUS (Jan 20 – Feb 18)
Everything in you wants to move
impetuously. Maybe you really do have to
follow this for a while, even though to your friends it
looks like you’re taking the hard path. The beauty
about the space you are in now, is that you are living
and learning things for yourself. That’s good.
PISCES (Feb 19 – Mar 20)
There is a huge run of energy for the
water signs – and there’s nothing
more watery than a fish. Go with your feelings.
There really is no other way. Life will remind you
to stay grounded every now and again. The lovely
little things need as much attention as the really big
things.

A natural antiseptic, deodoriser, germ killer,
degreasing agent and powerful cleaner, Eucalyptus
truly is one of the most versatile of all essential oils.
Here are just a few handy home tips…
Kill Germs
Did you know Bosisto’s Eucalyptus Spray is
proven to kill 99.99% germs… all with the pure
fresh power of Eucalyptus Oil? Use in place of
harsh chemicals on door handles, children’s toys,
keyboards, handheld mobile devices and other
surfaces fingers frequently touch.
Sticky Situations
Gum, glue, anything sticky… Bosisto’s Eucalyptus
Spray will whip it off in a flash. Also great for paint
or ink marks on clothes, shoes or furnishings, or
cleaning scuff marks from vinyl floors.
Lovely Laundry
Stubborn stains? With the grime-busting
properties of natural eucalyptus, a spray of Bosisto’s
before laundering will help lift grubby dirt, grass
and oil stains from clothes.
Rubbish Bins & Toilets
There’s nothing worse than rubbish bin and toilet
odours… and there’s nothing that eliminates them
quicker than Bosisto’s Eucalyptus Spray. Use it on
household bins, nappy bins, compost and wheelie
bins and in the bathroom for a long-lasting Aussie
bush aroma.

STEPHEN POLLOCK
UST when you thought
every last drop of green
blood had been squeezed
out of the zombie genre,
along comes Michael Logan
with Apocalypse Cow (Forget
the cud, they want blood...).
The novel’s a satire about
cattle transformed into humaneating zombies, after a secret
government bio-weapon goes
awry.
As Britain descends into
zombie chaos, ministers
cynically blame al-Qaeda.
Only a twisted Glaswegian
could write about heifers
stomping about Britain,
munching on nubile girls and
having sex with lollipop men.
“It’s a biting social and
political satire through the sadly
underused medium of zombie
cows,” quips Logan.
“I have always loved zombies
and wanted to write a lighthearted novel in the genre
without being repetitive.
“It struck me that nobody
had done zombie animals, which
struck me as a little odd given
that most global pandemics that
are supposed to wipe out the
world start with animals (SARS,
bird flu, etc).”
Logan’s debut novel is a
testament to the dark British
sense of humour—the penumbra
between uneasiness and
laughter.
The kind exemplified in
UK TV shows The League of
Gentlemen and The Thick of It.
Logan, 42, says growing up
in Glasgow helped forge his
mordant wit.
“Glaswegians are
simultaneously very dark and
very funny people,” he says.
“It can often be difficult to tell
whether somebody is screaming
abuse at you or telling a joke.
“Sometimes they seem to be
the same thing.”
Logan made his fictionwriting breakthrough in 2011:
As joint winner of The Terry
Pratchett first novel award he
was given a publishing deal.
For many years, he was an
author trapped in an engineer’s
body.
He spent his 20s working as
an electronics engineer in the
gloomy central belt of Scotland,
satisfying his creative urge by
playing guitar in bands and
drinking lots of beer.
On turning 30 he started to
dabble with fiction and quickly
found recognition when a
number of his short stories

appeared in literary journals.
Buoyed by success, Logan
moved with his then-partner to
Budapest and tried his hand at
journalism, learning Hungarian
and working at The Budapest
Times.
“I felt no love nor particular
natural aptitude for engineering,
so getting out to do something I
loved felt wonderful,” he says.
In 2008, he and his wife—
who works in humanitarian
aid—relocated again to Kenya.
Logan, who still works as a
journo in Nairobi, says African
culture is a great muse.
“The thing I love the most
about Kenya and the wider
continent is that everything is
changing so quickly,” he says.
“There is chaos and energy
and a loose attitude towards
rules, which creates a sense
of freedom you don’t feel in
developed nations.
“It is definitely stimulating.”
Apocalypse Cow was released
in Australia this month.
(The Ed says: Pedants may recall
the 2006 NZ flick, “Black Sheep”,
about killer sheep feasting on people
but of course they were mutants,
not zombies.)

W
ITH the world agog at
the imminent arrival of a
new royal baby, it seemed
appropriate to be reviewing a home
on Queen Street, as I’d been hoping
for a girl.
The little princess would have made
history, with recent historic changes to
succession laws meaning a first-born girl
is no longer passed over for a younger
brother.
Of course given the longevity of the
Windsors, she’d have had to wait awhile,
with Liz going strong, Charles next in line
and then her own dad.
This three-bedroom Bayswater home
too has longevity on its side.
It’s one of the original homesteads in
the area, and the lovely four-bedroom,
weatherboard cottage has plenty of grace,
charm and elegance, as befitting the Swan
colony’s squattocracy.
Embracing the home the wrap-around
verandah gazes out over a swathe of
grass, rose beds and a central fountain.
Your East Perth Specialist
Wendie Wisbey 0409 293 527
[email protected]
Make home a
royal occasion
Come spring the view will be framed
with gorgeous, dripping bunches of
mauve wisteria, thanks to an ancient vine
stretching the length of the verandah.
As to be expected in a home of this
vintage, the ceilings are high, jarrah floors
flow, and there’s plenty of decorative fire
places and ceiling roses.
A section of the verandah has been
enclosed forming a huge dressing-room
and ensuite for the main bedroom.
Winter or summer the central lounge
is a refuge from the hurly burly, with a
beautiful fireplace and elegant French
doors to the verandah.
A rear extension houses the kitchen/
dining area.
The kitchen is a spacious domain with
timber-fronted cupboards and plenty of
bench space.
From the sink you can see the Darling
Ranges, and watch planes coming and
going at the international airport—but it’s
far enough away for the sound to be on
mute, the vendor says.
Step through a bank of doors to the
covered patio and you’d think you were
in the country with a swathe of grass
and terraced garden looking out across
the leafy suburb’s many trees to the hills
beyond.
Despite the “country” feel this
delightful home, sitting on 1009sqm,
is central to a swag of shops, cafes and
restaurants, and you’ll have no excuse
for being late catching a plane. For more
sedate pursuits closer to home, the river
foreshore is a short walk away.
