Issue 10, Coastal Vibe The Lazy Gardener Rabbit Proof Fence It’s so easy to think of a bunch of reasons NOT to get out into the garden at this time of year. Not only is it bleak and windy, but while I’m scrabbling about in the drizzle up to my whatsits in mud I keep thinking about how everyone else has temporarily migrated to Bali and left me here in the cold… all by myself… So to my to-do-list: 1. Whinging 2. Procrastination Done! Those two tediously inevitable tasks are out of the way for the moment, so it’s time to rug up, chin up, and get outdoors. It only takes a short amount of moderately vigorous activity to warm up. And in fact, once you’re warm, gardening on a grey day can be quite invigorating... On several occasions over the past few weeks, I’ve taken my own advice, braved the elements and persevered with some of the easier and more enjoyable tasks such as planting winter vegetable seedlings. Carefully planting out the baby seedlings, I feel a sense of calm wash over me, wistfully imagining their growth and eventually harvesting their sweet fruits. Unfortunately, my small slice of wintry paradise is destroyed within 24 hours by the seething underworld of feral rabbits that know about my lazy gardening tendencies. “No electrified, 6ft high, barbed wire fence here”, I hear them snicker to each other. I suspect round about midnight, they all congregate in my front garden, illicitly munching on the delicious contraband I’ve been unwittingly supplying them with. (I know I fell for that myxy baby bunny several issues ago, but that was different…) So before I spiral into an eternal rage and turn into ghee, here’s a few googled ideas I’ve found in an attempt to beat the bunnies at their heinous crimes: BUILD A BIG FENCE Fencing made from chicken wire is the most obvious solution which I’m sure many of you dear readers have 4 already installed. For it to be worth the effort, it needs to be about 1m high and dug into the soil about 20cm. But frankly, if you’re anything like me, I don’t have the time, manpower, expertise or energy for anything so solid. THE DEFENCE ZONE This is a much easier task, but it is seasonal. Apparently rabbits aren’t keen on marigolds and onions so the idea is to plant a perimeter around the veggie zone. GARLIC TO THE RESCUE Cook up a concoction of really hot, peppery, garlicky liquid laced with chili. Strain it and pour it into a squirty bottle, then spray it over the seedlings. It must be nasty tasting to those delicate bunny palates. Obviously you’ll need to reapply frequently especially with all the rain we’re having. And all the solid matter from the liquid can be placed in between the seedlings as an extra deterrent. PRICKLY STICKS & EGGSHELLS Choose a prickly stem that you have in abundance, rose prunings are the obvious choice at this time of year, and lay them between your lines of veggie seedlings. I suppose sensitive little bunny paws would be sensitive to the nasty pricks (insert smiley face emoticon here). Eggshells are supposed to have similar effect. KNIVES & FORKS This is my favourite. I suppose it follows a similar logic to the prickly sticks, but it looks way more hilarious so I’m up for it. Just stick a bunch of plastic spoons, forks or knives upright in the ground. Maybe the cutlery just reminds the rabbits that they are potentially a dinner source so they scuttle off in terror. I hope you can utilise some of these ideas in your garden to combat the damn varmints. If you have any tried and true methods to sabotage the cunning critters I’d love to hear from you and will happily share your ideas in The Vibe for the benefit of all of readers. Issue 10, Coastal Vibe Yumbo 5 1 bay leaf 2 tsp paprika 1 x 400g tin diced tomatoes ¼ cup thickened cream 1 cup of chicken stock A knob of butter and a splash of olive oil What you do Butter Chicken This is my reasonably healthy version of that all time Indian crowd pleaser – Butter Chicken. Traditionally, a very naughty dish that uses lots of cream and butter, I substitute much of the said dairy with yoghurt. Probably not a very authentic rendition, but very delicious and the family won’t know that you’re doing their arteries a huge kindness. What you’ll need 1 kg chicken breast, diced ½ cup Greek yoghurt 1 tbs lemon juice 1 tsp turmeric 2 tsp garam masala ¼ tsp chili powder 1 tsp ground cumin 1 tsp cardamom powder (I crush cardamom pods in a mortar & pestle and discard the husks - the aroma when you crush them is sublime!) 2 tsp grated fresh ginger 2 cloves garlic, crushed 1 onion, chopped In a large bowl combine the yoghurt, lemon juice, garlic, ginger, turmeric, garam masala, chilli, cumin. Add the chicken pieces and stir until coated thoroughly. In a heavy based pan cook the onion, cardamom and bay leaf and cook for a few minutes until the onion is soft. Reduce the heat, throw in the chicken with its marinade, paprika, tomatoes and stock. Simmer for about 45 minutes. About 10 minutes before you’re ready to serve, stir through the cream and heat through. Serve with naan bread and steamed basmati rice. Issue 10, Coastal Vibe Video Game Stuff Brought To You By The Game Over Man … checks out Oz Comic Con While I have been to many game conferences and shows over the years this is the first time I have been to a Comic Con (Comic Convention). I was unsure as to what to expect as most of my information had come from episodes of The Big Bang Theory. So armed with my children as a clever disguise I made my way to the Exhibition Buildings in Carlton. For those of you that don’t know, Comic Con was traditionally a get together for people that enjoyed comics to buy and sell and chat. It has now become something altogether different. Over the years it has grown from comics to encompass all things geek including SCI FI TV shows, films and B Grade movies. If you tried to distil Comic Con you would call it a celebration of pop culture. Celebrities and revered industry experts talk on panels and are available for autographs and photo ops if the right amount of money changes hands. It was only a short walk from where we had breakfast and I knew we were getting close as a mum dressed as Princess Leia with two children in tow were crossing the road next to us. The next character we saw was slightly more startling; he was dressed in a silver lycra body suit holding onto a foam surfboard. He was the Silver Surfer in all his glory although he did tell us as we made our way to the entrance that he was “bloody freezing”. Inside the building it was mayhem with cartoonists drawing and stalls selling rubber swords based on their famous counterparts found in Game of Thrones or Skyrim. There were hundreds of strange eclectic stalls. An ex game industry friend of mine had a stall where they were selling 6 special FX props including a huge range of skulls some of which were used in the Wolf Creek films. This was down the aisle from a guy selling hovering UFO’s and another stand selling lollies. The thing I was most looking forward to was the Cosplay (Costume Play). This is when people dress up as Super heroes or robots or anything from the world of Geek that takes their fancy. I was not disappointed as the photos show. Not only were there hundreds of people in the conference dressed up, but crowds were out the front strutting their stuff. There are strict rules surrounding the costumes. This is the one I found the most amusing: “No metal props, flammable or incendiary devices are allowed. This includes but is not limited to: replica guns, blades, fireworks, or flammable liquids. Check with the Cosplay Coordinator before the competition if you are unsure. A strict weapons policy will be enforced. If you do not surrender a prop when asked, you may be asked to leave the premises.” A very much leave all of your weapons at the door sort of policy. Another highlight was the Oculus Rift. After a bit of queuing we managed to try the Rift, much to the horror of the Lazy Gardener who quickly took it off complaining of a head ache and nausea. At the end of the day the common thread of Comic Con is to celebrate the geek in all of us. If you don’t have any geek you should watch some more reruns of The Big Bang Theory and try and find some. Issue 10, Coastal Vibe World of the Weird Weird Vehicles (or, “I’m not getting in that thing”) 7 travel and has travelled 33000 miles on land and 3000 miles on water. The sad part of this story is that it was finally sold in 1999 for US$200,000 at a divorce auction. I think Rick’s wife finally had enough of his vehicular obsessions. The Monocycle I’m not much of a petrol head but I can respect a bizarre piece of machinery. Many people are besotted by things that go fast and look as though they should fly through the air rather than travel along a road. However, I’d like to focus more on vehicles that would probably not be allowed on most roads. The vehicles that only a mother could love. Crawler Transporter I was lucky enough to see this one in real life many years ago. The Crawler was originally designed to move the Saturn V rockets to launch position in the Apollo days and then to transport the Space shuttle. Two were built at a cost of US$14 million each. Obviously cheap when you consider that each space shuttle cost US$1.7 billion. When fully loaded with the throttle up, the Crawler could manage 1.6 kmh. Not the quickest but you wouldn’t want it to spill its cargo. I thought these strange inventions should be given a mention as they have been powering along since 1869 when Richard C Hemming developed the hand powered mono-wheel that was fondly named, “The Flying Yankee Velocipede”. Hundreds and hundreds have been built over the years but they have never really taken off. They are usually seen in street parades or dedicated exhibition events. One of the main reasons that they haven’t been that popular is the effect called “Gerbiling” - this is when the monocycle stops but the rider keeps on going and rotates up into the wheel and loses balance. Another obvious issue is that the rider always has the wheel in front of their face limiting visibility. So I’m sure if they could fix the blind, gerbilling they would have a hit. Surface Orbiter Lun Ekranoplane This rocket with wheels was built by Rick Dobbertin. It was designed to travel on land and on water. It was made out of a stainless steel milk transport tank and took 4 years and US$175,000 to complete. It did finally get to Is it a ship? Is it a plane?…… Well really it’s neither. Built by the Russians in the 1960’s it relied on the cushion of air that develops between a flying vehicle and the ground or sea. This is known as the ground effect and these vehicles were often referred to as ground effect vehicles. They only had to get a few meters into the air for them to work so the wings tended to be very short. For a while the Russians thought they were great as they could quickly move troops about on the Black Sea while easily staying under the radar. This particular vehicle had a top speed of 560km and was called the Caspian Sea Monster by the US. The idea was abandoned after a while as the vehicle was never as stable as the engineers wanted and nose diving into the sea at 560km wouldn’t have been a good thing. Issue 10, Coastal Vibe Revenge Is An Aphrodisiac By Leon Herbert Leroy and his Inspector friend Jack Flint were in friendly debate and discussion over the plethora of interesting sporting events of the past week- the Wimbledon tennis finals had been magnificent but Brazil being mauled 7 goals to 1 by Germany was truly unbelievable. It seemed that the local criminals in Cowes had decided to afford the two detectives a well earned reprieve from detection and some leisure time to engage in the pursuit of other equally cerebral matters. But sadly the pleasure was not enduring – Flint got a call from the station. There was no time to finish their coffee at Uri's delightful modern coffee shop. Flint remarked to Leroy as they left to deal with the subject of the call that perhaps it was soon to be revealed that he and not Leroy would solve the mystery soon to unfold. Leroy's cynical response that this would be even more unbelievable than the Brazil soccer score angered Flint and reaffirmed Flint's knowledge that revenge killers were not satisfied until the objects of their anger are destroyed. In this instance however he was determined to extract his revenge over the brilliant sleuth in a more cerebral fashion rather than by bloody execution. Joe Potter has the worst luck. The sign on the roof proclaiming “Classy Jewellers” had just been installed this morning. The shop wasn’t even open for business and it had already been robbed. It was literally just down the road from the coffee shop. Joe Potter rushed out to greet them. ‘Flint,’ he said, pumping his old friend’s hand. ‘I thought changing locations from Wonthaggi would change my luck, but I guess not.’ Potter escorted them inside. Police officers who’d earlier answered the distress call were examining the empty glass case while the shop's two employees stood around, looking helpless. The shop owner used to employ three people until last year when one had been arrested for robbery. ‘How did it happen?’ Flint asked. ‘We were setting up the display cases,’ Potter told his friend. ‘The space isn’t ready; we don’t even have a working bathroom. But our opening party is tonight, so we have to make do. At around noon, I went into the back office. Our front door was propped open—no air conditioning yet. I figured either Molly or Richard was in the front showroom watching things. Seems I was wrong. They’d both stepped out. That gave the thief enough 8 time to see the rings, run into the store and grab all six of them. They’re insured, of course, but only at wholesale value.’ ‘I’ll do my best,’ Flint said and crossed over to shake hands with Molly, the manager. ‘I had to go around the corner and move my car,’ she said, then glared accusingly at Richard. ‘I told him to stay here. When I came back, the showroom was empty and the rings were gone. I ran into the back. My boss was on the phone. He hung up right away and we called the police.’ Flint thanked Molly for her help, then ambled over to speak with Richard. ‘I shouldn’t have left the front door open,’ said the guilt-stricken employee. ‘But I didn’t know if Molly had her key with her or not. After Molly left, I ran to the clothing shop next door to use their bathroom. Since I wasn’t a customer, I kind of sneaked in. I don’t know if anyone saw me. Mr. Potter and Molly were here when I got back, trying to figure out how much had been stolen.’ ‘Inspector Flint? Can you come out here?’ The voice had come from the store’s open courtyard located directly behind the showroom. An officer was standing by the pine tree in the middle of the shady yard. His hand was wet with pine-sap, but there was a red felt bag in his hand and a smile on his face. ‘I reached inside a hole in the tree and found this bag wedged in a crevice.’ Flint took the sticky bag into the showroom and opened it. The rings were all there, safe and sound. ‘What do you think?’ whispered Flint. ‘Obviously an inside job,’ Leroy whispered back. ‘Joe Potter could have taken them when the store was empty. The same with Molly or Richard. The thief wedged them inside the tree, knowing he or she could get them later. It’s a bit too early to know which one.’ Flint grinned with obvious pleasure. ‘Too early for you, but I know.’ Flint tried to hide his shock. How could Flint know and not him? What bit of information did the Inspector have that Leroy didn’t? He was mortified at this about turn. He was usually more than one step ahead of his friend in the art of deduction and apprehension of the culprit. Surely he wasn't losing his grip. Still, if it was revenge for past victories, then good luck to his friend if justice was served. And then he realised, but too late for their mind game, what must have happened. Who stole the rings? What evidence did Flint have? (Solution on page 11) Issue 10, Coastal Vibe 9 Vibe Puzzles & Quizzes Find all the answers and solutions to Puzzles, Quizzes & Whodunnits on page 11 (No peeking!)

Issue 10, Coastal Vibe 11 Whodunnit Solution 10 Revenge Is An Aphrodisiac ‘Congratulations,’ Leroy said with as much grace as he could muster. ‘Of course you had a piece of information I didn’t.’ ‘True,’ Flint admitted. ‘It’s quite elementary.’ He was nearly champing at the bit. ‘Do you want me to explain it?’ ‘No need,’ Leroy said, with a good imitation of a yawn. ‘Now that you’ve confirmed that you had information I didn’t, the answer is child’s play. The thief was Molly.’ Flint was crestfallen. ‘How did you know?’ ‘Elementary, as you said. The one thing you did here that I didn’t was shake hands with Molly. I imagine her hand was sticky.’ ‘Yeah,’ Flint growled. ‘It was.’ ‘Sticky from putting the bag in the crevice. The shop’s bathroom isn’t working, so she couldn’t have washed it off. Since you admitted having information I didn’t, that was the only possibility.’ ‘I solved this one on my own, Leroy. Don’t try to take credit for it.’ ‘I never do.’ ‘I know.’ Flint pouted. His success left him frustrated but his good nature returned and revenge against his friend was no longer in his heart.
