ABOUT 40 people have protested the imminent closure of the bulk-billing Fremantle Hospital GP clinic.
State Labor candidate Simone McGurk and WA health shadow Roger Cook addressed the crowd outside the South Terrace clinic on Wednesday evening.
The Herald revealed two weeks ago the Barnett government had decided to axe the non-profi t clinic and put its contract out to tender, all but

THE doctor who set up the Fremantle Hospital GP clinic says the hospital’s emergency department will be overrun by non-critical patients when the bulk-billing clinic closes.
Professor Max Kamien says patients with social problems and drug addictions will walk into the casualty department rather than seek out a new GP. They will “mess up the system” and won’t receive appropriate care.
“The truth is, no GP clinic looking after disadvantaged patients and practicising good medicine—by this I mean a holistic approach including social welfare—will [commercially] survive,” Prof Kamien says.
“You need to fi nd a saint, a series of saints, who are willing to work for maybe $50,000, and they’re hard to fi nd.
‘Just survive’“The patients are all Medicare
patients, you can just survive if those patients are seen rapidly, but these ones need long appointments: It’s very disappointing.”
Prof Kamien, a state fi nalist for Australian of the Year in 2009, started the clinic in the 1980s under a joint relationship between UWA and Fremantle Hospital.
It was so successful in attracting patients that within a few weeks the hospital started taking some of them back.
Suturing and removing foreign objects from eyes—most GPs’ bread and butter—were deemed emergency procedures, leaving the clinic with patients suffering more serious health and welfare issues.
“They left us all the tough stuff, HIV, dire social problems, and

so on, most of them poor and in bad health with drug and alcohol issues, the working ladies, etc” Prof Kamien recalls.
“This needed an hour per person, and to be frank a clinic is never going to be fi nancially viable if it takes an hour for appointments.
Prof Kamien handed the clinic’s reins over to Dr Trenna Turner and says it’s “limped on” after being ignored by Fremantle Hospital.
“It was Freo’s idea [and I’ve] always been disappointed in them, they have no intention of keeping it how it was conceived.
“It just didn’t have a fi nancial base: Freo Hospital got cold on the idea and forgot why they set it up.”
The Australian Medical Association (WA) says the clinic saves the hospital between $150,000 and $1 million each year by seeing patients who would otherwise admit themselves to the emergency department.
AMA (WA) vice-president Richard Choong describes the Barnett government’s decision to axe the clinic and replace it with a commercial tender is “disappointing”.
He’s “called on Fremantle Hospital to talk further with the clinic and to consider extra ways in which it can assist this service to continue”.
New state Labor candidate for Fremantle Simone McGurk has seized on the issue as her most pressing campaign priority.

“It’s the sort of thing Labor should be standing against, and I’m happy to do whatever I can to help,” Ms McGurk said, noting the people affected by the closure are far removed from Fremantle’s “latte drinking” image.
Mr Cook said the clinic’s closure would simply mean longer queues at the hospital’s emergency department next door.
“It’s undermining the services available to the people who need to go to the ED, and it’s undermining the services available to who should be able to go to a clinic such as this so they can get the type of primary health care they need.”
Rebecca Jones was pushing her young son, Leon, around in a wheelchair after he’d broken his leg “double bouncing” on a trampoline.
She’d fi rst taken him to the ED but had to wait because a

“The people of Fremantle deserve quality and accessible health care, not another privatised service from the Barnett Government.”
WA health minister Kim Hames has indicated he’s not getting involved. The WA health department is reportedly seeking a temporary GP to replace the clinic while the tender process occurs.
“The South Metropolitan Area Health Service offered to fund operation of this clinic for four weeks, ensuring staff received appropriate wages and had the opportunity to wind up operations: The offer was not accepted,” Dr Hames said.
The government asserts the clinic is a business, even though it runs as a non-profi t charitable trust, with its doctors on salaries that would make a junior level public servant weep.
by BRAD JEFFERIESARDROSS residents are arcing up over Melville council plans to intensively develop the Riseley precinct with 10-storey towers.
They says the plan will clog streets and block views.
Around 60 locals have joined the Riseley Centre Concerned Citizens’ Group, spearheaded by Millington Street resident and transport engineer and planner Bob Peters.
He says locals support a three-to-four storey limit.
“Look around and you see apartment blocks and townhouses that can be achieved without destroying the look and the amenity of the area,” Mr Peters told the Herald.
“One thing that irritated me, was there was never any visual impact shown.
“What people don’t understand is that 10 storeys is huge; it’s way taller than the trees around here, and it’s taller than Wireless Hill and will block out city views.”
Mr Peters says locals know the WA government has directed the council to plan for an extra 11,000 residents by 2031, but he believes that can be done by tinkering with planning codes and with subtle density increases.
He says the council has identifi ed Garden City surrounds

man suffering a stomach ulcer had taken precedence: She said a stomach ulcer was something better suited to treatment at a GP’s, not emergency.
A patient at the clinic for more than 20 years, she fears the ED will be swamped by non-emergency cases if the clinic closes.
Another concerned about a build up was hospital nurse Nicole Skavik.
“I’m forever referring people down to the clinic, mainly as a way to take the pressure off the emergency department,” she said.
“If it closes there’s just going to be a backlog, and also a lot of the nurses use it: It’s very convenient after a shift to go down there.”
Mr Cook told the Herald the WA government should be moving heaven and earth to keep the clinic open, and he’ll be asking questions in parliament this week and next to get WA health minister Kim Hames on the record.

in Booragoon and Murdoch as high population growth centres and they should take planning priority.
“One thing we’re trying to say is, they need to get the same vision complete on the Booragoon centre, and work out the traffi c there, and then they can work out the traffi c on Riseley.
“The major access to Garden City from the north is from Riseley, and it’s already a problem, with rat-running through the streets and congestion to get through.
“Get the big picture worked out fi rst, then work out what the minor details are, of which [the Riseley Precinct] is a part.”
Mr Peters says the first that most residents had heard about the proposal was reading the Herald in November. The council had given them nothing.
A deputation to the council is being prepared.
When previous ly asked about complaints regarding consultation, Melville CEO Shayne Silcox has told the Herald it’s been ongoing since 2008.
“The next stages of the project will include engagement with the community to disseminate information and to provide opportunities for the community and other s takeholders to contribute their views,” he says.

by BRENDAN FOSTERJUST when it couldn’t get any worse for the Carnaby’s black cockatoo a closer inspection of a devastating WA government report has found the bird has all but disappeared from Jandakot, where it once thrived.
In the WA environment department funded Great Cocky Count the number of Carnaby’s at Jandakot—a vital roosting and feeding habitat—had plummeted from 150 in 2010 to just three in 2011.
At the Winthrop/Kardinya/Murdoch roost numbers had dropped from 825 to 201.
Jandakot Liberal MP Joe Francis blames former federal environment minister Peter Garrett, for allowing Jandakot Airport Holdings to clear 167 hectares of pristine banksia
by CARMELO AMALFIA WOMAN suffering a rare neuro-genetic condition was booted out of Melville Super Bowl for bringing her own lunch.
Leeming mother Diana Yuen says her 29-year-old daughter Candy suffers Angelman Syndrome, which causes intellectual and developmental delay. “As soon as she took the food out of the container, the canteen staff pounced,” the incensed mother of four told the Herald. “She won’t eat anything else. The carers were told the club could lose its licence and business if they brought in food. So they were forced to go outside and eat on the steps.”
Ms Yuen says her daughter
woodland for a controversial commercial development.
“For all the debate that goes on around development in Perth, this has been the greatest act of environmental vandalism by the Labor government, supported by the Greens,” Mr Francis told the Herald.
“The 167 hectares were pristine banksia bushland—an untouched habitat and natural haven for the Carnaby’s.
“This land hasn’t been cleared for roads, hospitals or schools that will benefi t the community—it’s for private commercial development.”
WA conservation council boss Piers Verstegen also took a swipe at Mr Garrett, who before entering parliament had headed up the Australian Conservation Foundation.
“To allow the destruction of one of the last remaining banksia woodlands in the metropolitan
areas, was a recipe for disaster,” Mr Verstegen said.
“Whether the birds have perished or moved on, the demise of this iconic woodland has had a major impact on the birds’ food supply.”
On Wednesday, World Forests Day, conservationists presented WA environment minister Bill Marmion with 5000 signatures calling on the Barnett government to protect remaining cocky habitat.
WA Forests Alliance bugle Jess Beckerling says Mr Marmion has done nothing despite alarming evidence of habitat destruction.
“Unless cockatoo nesting and feeding habitat is protected our children won’t have cockatoos in their skies,” she said.
“This issue is too important to be in the hands of someone who refuses to deal with it appropriately.”
No-fly zone
has taken her own food on previous visits and she can’t understand the change of heart for the March 16 outing.
The bowling alley manager, who did not want to be named, says its policy does not discriminate against people with disabilities or special dietary needs. “The policy that no outside food or drink can be brought in has been in place since 2000,” he told the Herald.
“Only bottled water is allowed. We’re not targeting people with special needs. This policy applies across the board. There is always room for compassion but a policy is a policy.”
He says allowing people to bring in food could expose the business to a food poisoning action. Ms Yuen says that’s a cop
out: “These are special people with special needs. Where’s the compassion?” Other alleys she’d contacted had no problem with people with disabilities taking their own food. The Herald called Warwick Super Bowl which says it has a similar policy but allows people with disabilities to bring their own packed lunch.
Interchange CEO Wendel Bamford says some of its clients have special dietary concerns.
When he visited the club this week to discuss the policy, he was offered a room where clients could eat in private, but he was unhappy with the notion of segregating his clients, and preferred that they eat in the public area. He says it is a tricky issue that will be discussed with the board before accepting Super Bowl’s offer.

Sick to deathI AM sick to death of reading about the decrease of Carnaby cockies when no-one will take notice nor action regarding the clearing of their natural habitat at Jandakot airport.
I have had a meeting with Joe Francis (Liberal Jandakot MP) who claims his hands are tied regarding clearing of the Banskia forest at the airport.
JAH is removing thousands of tonnes of sand per day (after the trees are felled) to develop more commercial development in and around the airport. All I read are complaints from the greenies (of which I am not) whining about local species of this and that being wiped out.
If the community is half-dinkum, for God’s sake take action. If JAH continues to clear native bankia forest, it will be gone in a year!
What were hills on the approach to the airport are now completely fl attened. No-one gives a stuff, but everyone

Just too bigTHANK you Cockburn council for rejecting on March 8 the multipurpose mosque and cultural centre.
One-hundred-and-thirteen residents living on rural properties within 1km of the proposed site signed a petition against the application. More than 80 per cent of mature bush would have needed bulldozing, up to 800 people could have attended, in hundreds of cars, starting from 5am.
The amenity of the area would have been altered forever with a 10.5m minaret and 1.8m brick wall surrounding the block. The other insurmountable problem was this bush block is not on scheme water, no deep sewerage, no underground power and not even on a bus route.
Surely such facilities would have more chance of being accepted in a commercial or idustrial area due to the sheer number of participants and hours of operation.

On the trailTHANK goodness the Herald is pursuing the money trail of the $17 million from the public purse (Herald, March 10, 2012).
It seems more and more that this present government uses the resources as if it were its own personal money chest.
The nonsense that we live in an open and fair society seems more and more like an oxymoron under this present regime. When we have some of the most serious social problems in the country from homelessness to drug addictions and all the mental stress that goes with that you would think the priorities of our pollies would be more relevant.
Until there is a more equitable distribution of wealth and representation there is little chance that will happen. Some may think they are living in paradise but it’s looking more like a fool’s paradise every day.

Save the front lineYOUR story on the possible closure of the GP clinic at Fremantle Hospital (Herald March 10, 2012) was timely, and should get Freo residents writing to health minister Kim Hames in great numbers.
This long-established bulk-billing surgery is the front line of health services in Fremantle, and essential for many people who are aged, or disabled, or not so well off. It has a nursing station for community health activities, and a team of very experienced and dedicated doctors.
Its location next to the hospital and public transport is
Watt about the olds?THE refurbishment of Bathers Beach may please some. Myself and many other elderly folk used to enjoy sitting on the wall and watching the waves breaking.

very useful, and the bulk-billing aspect is vital for many in our community. I have been using the clinic since 1996.
We should be demanding that the Barnett government allocate funding for this essential GP clinic for a long period into the future. The doctors can then concentrate on serving the thousands of patients that need their services, and not have the sword of closure hanging over them. Given the choice of a $1 billion stadium, or local bulk-billing clinics and similar community services, many in Fremantle would have little hesitation in taking the latter option.

FREMANTLE residents will be swamped in coming weeks with
forums on how the port city might look in the future.
The council is a week away from signing Amendment 49 and supporters of the changes have hit the ground running for the next phase—developing guidelines to determine how the added density will look (assuming the amendment is approved by the WA planning minister).
First cab off the rank is architectural fi rm CODA which is holding a design charrette today (Saturday March 24), pitting seven teams of architects and fourth-year Curtin university students against each other to design potential buildings for sites covered by the scheme amendment.
JuryTheir results will be presented
to a jury that consists of:• mayor Brad Pettitt• UWA architectural professor
and author of Boomtown Richard Weller
• former WA heritage council chief Patric de Villiers (a former Freo council chief and before that Freo planning department head)
• Office of the Government Architect policy offi cer Melinda Payne
• Curtin university lecturer Beth George.
CODA co-founder Emma Williamson told the Herald a key aspect will be to counter the perception that good architecture is risky and won’t deliver fat profi ts for developers.
She agrees the forum will be a litmus test to convince ratepayers that architects can design decent medium- and high-density buildings.
“Fremantle has not had a lot of quality design, particularly in terms of apartments,” she acknowledges.
But she believes part of the problem is that architects’ skills in this area have not been needed with Perth’s small population. With the expected boom they’ll be able to dust them off, and, coupled with Fremantle council’s design committee and looming guidelines, she’s expecting a mini renaissance.
CODA manager Emma Brain says the public can watch the designs unfold at the studio at 10 Elder Place, but the most interesting part will be the presentations to the jury at 4.30pm.
Meanwhile, next Saturday (March 29) from 7.30-9pm at the town hall the Fremantle Greens will hold a wide-ranging forum on how to make the city more vibrant and sustainable.
Members of a six-person panel will each get two or three minutes to spruik their best ideas, followed by questions and comments from the audience.
Fremantle inner city residents association representative Emma Powell’s on the panel and says she’s looking for less red tape at the council, while Annie Matan from Curtin University’s CUSP unit is gunning for walkability, including making cars share streets with pedestrians, as is becoming common in Europe where they’re sometimes known as naked streets. She says the results have seen cars travelling at walking speed through commercial districts and just 20kmh in the extremities.
Greens party member Rob Delves, who’s organising the forum and wants to see a city with less cars, says the party is hoping to move past the animosity generated by the amendment’s height debate and look for common ground.
But his hopes have been dashed even before the event, with local historian and storyteller Ron Davidson having a dig.
“The group chosen to discuss increasing Fremantle vibrancy is none too vibrant itself,” he said.
“ T h r e e o u t o f s i x a r e sustainability people, with Peter Newman’s fi ngerprints all over them. “Not a historian in sight. Not a storyteller in sight.”
On March 29 at 5.30pm at Rosie O’Grady’s pub The Fremantle Network will discuss plans for the redevelopment of Kings Square.
Organiser Rachel Pemberton, a Greens party member and Fremantle counci l lor, says people will be able to meet the man behind the Myer Building, Sirona Capital managing director Matthew McNeilly, and council consultant David Shetliffe.
C u r t i n ’ s C U S P u n i t i s also looking at “green skin” developments and how they can be incorporated in Fremantle. They’re regarded as a way of bringing nature back into the urban environment and include living walls and roof gardens.
CUSP’s project includes a workshop at its Pakenham HQ which is not open to the public (although it says its arm might be twisted by someone who’s really interested), a critique of draft designs at UWA’s architecture faculty on April 17 and a final presentation and exhibition at the Fremantle Library on Tuesday May 1.
No word yet from the Fremantle Society and its plans (if any).

We can rebuildI COMMEND Elizabeth Mooney for her Thinking Allowed article, “Shock! Horror! We need to rebuild” (Herald, March 3, 2012).
She paints a picture of Fremantle’s dire situation in terms of population, commerce and the absence of a modern aesthetic: once a vibrant city, now a stagnant backwater town with asperations of becoming a retirement village. Mooney’s critique is harsh but she nails what ails us.
I have sympathy for the burghers of Fremantle whose opinions so often appear in your paper. They are well-intentioned but I believe they are wrong and that their legacy—a four-storeyed Freo—would be an unmitigated disaster for future generations.
Fremantle has had strict height regulations for well over 25 years. Knowing how developers can manipulate a compliant council (Port Coogee is a classic case), I initially supported this low-height policy but the proof is in the pudding. What evidence is there that it has delivered?
Where to for us?WHEN I fi rst moved to Fremantle, I had great diffi culty in fi nding a doctor with whom I could register. I am a disabled pensioner and all the doctors I tried had a quota of bulk-billed patients, which was full.
If I had not found the hospital GP (Herald, March 10, 2012), I do not know what would have happened. If it is closed what will I and a great many others in my situation do? Who will care for all the patients? Fremantle Hospital refuses to disclose its plans.
As for the statement by the hospital that no patient will be disadvantaged, that is untrue. I was in tears yesterday worrying about the pending closure of the clinic, where the doctors know me well and have been exceptionally good at treating me. I have never had such excellent care from doctors in Australia.
The clinic does not cost Fremantle Hospital money. An independent review in 1999 reported it saved the hospital between $150,000 and $1m annually. It
Dignity, pleaseWITH so many concerns from people who read and write to the great Herald, why is there never an informal answer from the Freo council to the concerns?
Anyhow, why don’t they release some space for the homeless, with a ticket machine at the entrance so people can obtain shelter, food, a shower, give back some human rights?
The woolstores would be perfect—isn’t the owner in the hospitality industry? Can’t be hard to place a solar hot water and lights, people would donate bedding to see these people get a crack of getting back on their feet for $5 a night. Not too high a price to pay for a bit off dignity.
Will WaltersEast St, East Fremantle
herald lettersearns money for the hospital because Medicare pays the hospital for tests and procedures on patients sent to it by the clinic. Only yesterday I was referred to the hospital for two tests. The clinic takes pressure off the emergency department with its services, including its after-hours surgery.
The Hospital General Practice was recognised with a Teaching Excellence award from the University of WA. Not only medical students, but postgraduate doctors, nurses and counsellors are trained there.
I ask the WA government to reconsider the decision to close the hospital GP. Its patients will have little choice but to go to the emergency department, or avoid going to a doctor at all. It would be a very unwise decision to close this vital service.
J Karen Clulow
Buckland Hill? Marvel at the McMansions. Between the bridges? The world’s most boring skyscape, a virtual gated community reminiscent of a famous location in Gulliver’s Travels.
Leighton? The North Fremantle community lobbied furiously against high-rise on their beach: It would block the view, set in the rot, recreate the Gold Coast. Outcome: The great blob, a plague of conjoined gnomes, an aesthetic disaster from whatever angle or height you observe it. Picture Leighton as four or fi ve medium-rise buildings (say, shock! horror!, 15 to 25 storeys), structures of modern beauty whether you view them Stirling Highway, the beach or the train. Buildings that would house twice as many people as the development we have been delivered.
More people? We have a moral obligation to house more people inner-city to ameliorate the disaster of suburban spread as well as the obvious commercial motivation. More people means the citizens of North Fremantle wouldn’t have to drive to Mosman Park to buy their food, because they would have their own supermarket.
Two points: First, these developments were all constructed under our watch; Second, each could have at least achieved some beauty had they embraced taller, sculpted modernity.
South Beach is the best new development I’ve observed. A few buildings rise to (shock! horror!) seven storeys. Notably, this development is Cockburn’s, not Fremantle’s.
There remain few opportunites for Fremantle to embrace taller buildings and a vibrant modernism. The Sealanes site is one; the valley east of Swanbourne Street is another. Watch this space.
Tall, modern buildings can co-exist happily alongside old buildings. Check out Melbourne. Or Bilbao. As Elizabeth Mooney writes, “the challenge is to do it well”.

WA’s growing pains require urgent medical attention.Over the next 30 years our population is set to double.
WA is the fastest growing state in the nation and forecasts indicate we’ll need a signifi cant number of new doctors over the next 10 years to cope with the growing demand on our healthcare system.
We want to help by opening a medical school at Curtin University in 2014.
Curtin University has submitted a proposal for a medical school to the federal government. Now we need your support to ensure this essential training facility is established here, for the benefi t of the entire Western Australian community.
Why Curtin University?
• Our proposed school wouldn’t duplicate existing degrees in WA. We would off er a new way of educating medical students, and provide the only fi ve-year direct-entry undergraduate medicine degree in our state. This would result in more doctors in the workforce sooner.
• We would address doctor shortages in rural and regional WA. Our proposal includes establishing a number of clinical schools in priority rural and regional locations across the state.
• We already have a strong history in health education. Curtin teaches most of the allied professionals in WA, and we are currently leading the way in providing a team-based approach to teaching that will improve patient safety and quality of care.
• We would provide more choice for those wishing to study medicine in WA. Without Curtin’s proposed medical school, school leavers would need to move interstate to commence a medical degree straight away, and that could mean fewer doctors for WA in the future.
How you can help.
Help us show the federal government that you support Curtin University’s proposed medical school here in WA. Visit www.doctorsforthefuture.com.au or call 08 9266 3985 and register your support by 31 March 2012. You can also follow us on Facebook and Twitter, and share our message with your friends, family and community.
Make tomorrow better.

by CARMELO AMALFIA FREMANTLE council review of December’s world sailing championships shows that despite promises the event would be bigger than the America’s Cup, businesses suffered—particularly in retail and the arts.
The 43-page review found a two per cent drop in sales overall, with retail clothing and fashion experiencing a six per cent dip and arts, recreation and amusement fi ve per cent.
Those businesses whose sales increased included accommodation—12 per cent, and cafes, bars and restaurants—three per cent.
“The impact of the event seems patchy,” staff conclude from the online business survey. “Overall there was a slight decrease in sales of two per cent.
“As a number of businesses expressed that they would be increasing stock, staff and extending hours there would be some disappointment in the overall results for the event.
“The information tent [on Esplanade Reserve] indicated very low numbers and the arrangement was made worse in the move to be closer to the stage due to the layout changes of tents,” the review notes.
Many traders pulled out of the Esplanade before and during the event and one prominent business has lodged a complaint with the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission claiming ISAF organisers WA 2011 Pty Ltd breached the Trade Practices Act by fudging attendance fi gures that businesses had relied on.
Organisers had claimed up to 500,000 people would visit Fremantle, with 175,000 fl ooding the Esplanade village.
It was partly on this basis that the state and federal governments committed $17 million to the event. Another $3m was raised privately.
WA 2011 Pty Ltd, a $2 company set up especially for the event, submitted an interim report to the WA government in January, with a full progress report due in April.
Details will remain hidden from public scrutiny because WA tourism minister Kim Hames says they are commercially confi dential.
The council review says carpark use increased by three per cent during the event compared to the same period in 2010. This netted council nearly $50,000 in fees.
The cost to Fremantle council of supporting the Perth-labelled event was $210,000: $15,000 in marketing, $10,000 in social impact research, $125,000 in landscaping and capital improvements and $60,000 in event liaison and management.
ISAF hurt Freo trade: Review
“In addition to the above direct costs, an estimate of approximately $250,000 to $300,000 is made as a possible opportunity cost of staff time in supporting the event,” the review states.
Referring to a 2009 council briefi ng paper, the review states the event had been expected to attract 1000 competing yachts, 1500 sailors, 5000 to 10,000 spectators and more than 400 support personnel including media.
“Perth 2011 stated that [the event] would be a major event and one which would attract even more people and publicity than the America’s Cup defence,” the review noted.
“It was considered that all ‘Fremantle organisations get behind the event and support efforts to maximise its impact’.
“It was conservatively estimated that there will be an economic impact of $41 million to WA.”

Change park ingPURSE? Check. Keys? Check. Kids? Check. Four to $5 worth of silver? Well not always…
Living in Hamilton Hill this is more often than not the reason that when I pull out of my drive I turn left for Garden City instead of right for Freo.
I love Freo, the beach, the cafes the spunky mayor, I love it all but Garden City just seems easier.
It only really dawned on me the other day when I arrived in Claremont, I got out of my car, got the children out, all without having to rummage through my purse and buy a parking ticket, and I didn’t have to park in woop-woop to achieve this parking sucsess either, I was right outside the café I was heading to.
Asb estos k illsYOUR article failed to provide an all round view on the situation regarding the asbestos fence situation (Herald, March 10, 2012).
No mention of any thoughts from Homeswest were given and no neighbouring tenants were consulted. I therefore attach some neighbouring perspective to this article which was very one-sided.
Asbestos is a killer. This is not one good fence being replaced for another, this is asbestosis. Would you like it in your garden? Around Your children! Or is it because its “Homeswest” residents, so it’s not a major concern! Clearly, they warrant some form of thought.
Name and address suppliedEditor’s note: The article was
about Homeswest’s legally dodgy demand that an elderly pensioner neighbour pay half the cost of a new fence, even though the existing (asbestos) one is in good repair (and being in good repair it poses a negligible health risk). We don’t usually publish anonymous letters but the author is a neighbour and doesn’t want grief.
Put residents fi rst, pleaseI HAVE watched the owners of the complex in Minilya Avenue once again put business before community.
Works to the upgrade of the footpath in front of the shopping complex starts fi rst with upgrading the alfresco area so the cafe prospers.
This is done without one thought to the safety of residents who frequent the complex. Council regulations have not been adhered to according to approved plans.
There is no signage to warn pedestrians, nor is there any traffi c management in place. Residents were not notifi ed.
Once again we see the council doing nothing to supervise works that put the cafe’s business interests ahead of residents who frequent the deli.
The council approved the footpath upgrade and safety should be its number one priority.

No b itter after-tasteYOUR article on coffee last week (Herald, March 17, 2012) made a brief mention of fair trade.
It is true coffee lovers in Freo prefer to pay “71 per cent more” for fair trade coffee “…because it makes them feel good”. I personally buy it because I know it makes a real difference.
However, the City of Fremantle is offi cially Australia’s fi rst fair trade city and nowhere on our beloved cappuccino strip can you fi nd a certifi ed Fairtrade cuppa. There is only one place in the CBD (The Green Bean) and one in South Freo (Manna) where you can get a certifi ed Fairtrade coffee (at Juicy Beetroot and South Beach Café, you can have one on request).
I challenge a coffee house on the strip to take the plunge, try some certifi ed Fairtrade coffees out and make the swap.
I commend local boutique brewers on their efforts to maintain “direct trade” with growers, usually paying above market price; most of the cafes around Freo sell their drop.
But it is certifi ed Fairtrade coffee that properly audits and ensures the standards of fair trade that go well beyond paying workers fairly. Direct trade is a great step, but certifi ed Fairtrade offers a premium (as well as a minimum price) that can be spent on the surrounding community, often used to build schools or roads. It also offers employment equality, fair working hours, abolishes child and slave labour, among other
A gradual declineI HAVE been a visitor to Fremantle on and off since 1968 and resident in the Fremantle federal electorate for 20 years.
I have witnessed its gradual decline, briefl y arrested by the America’s Cup. Last year, my wife, seeking to establish a small business, looked for a suitable location in Fremantle. Alas, the avarice of the landlords trying to extort an exorbitant rent saw her look elsewhere for a more affordable location.
Time for the Fremantle city council to step in and act decisively to arrest the decline of a one thriving and vibrant locality.

Of course, this provoked the questions, why do we have to pay so much to park in Fremantle while the privileged “Golden Triangle” occupants of Claremont and Cottesloe enjoy free parking?
Do you require a net worth of over $5 million just to enjoy parking freedom? Why does Kim Kardashian get to walk into a clothing store and receive free clothes when she can clearly afford more then the rest of us? Is this the reason behind the rich getting richer? Free parking?
When walking through the streets of Freo yesterday I encountered more ticket inspectors then deros asking strangers for money. What is Freo coming to?
While working at Norm Wrightson’s barber shop on William Street, time and time again customers would confess to cheating on us with other barbers, not due to better hair cuts nor cheaper rates but due simply to the convenience of free parking.
I can’t help but wonder if a town that has over the years survived the annoyance of Greenpeace and Amnesty street workers, the rotten smell of sheep ships and not to mention Queen Street, could this parking dilemma injustice be responsible for the recent rise in Fremantle’s vacant commercial real estate?

by CARMELO AMALFIMASTER horseman, Fremantle taxi driver and a passionate South Fremant le footbal l supporter who loved to fish and play two-up, pool and cards with family and friends.
S tanding about four- fee t 11-inches, jockey Jack Ingram or Shavo (after the English shaving cream, because of his close fi nishes) was not a man of great stature, except on the inside where it counted most.
On Monday about 40 family, friends, jockeys and dignitaries from around WA and the eastern states paid tribute to John Richard Ingram at a funeral service in Myaree.
Born in Collie on December 11, 1924, the youngest of 10 children, “Uncle Jack” was one of the most skilled and revered jockeys in Australia and overseas.
He also was an advocate for the heritage listing of South Beach as the site of WA’s fi rst offi cial horse race in 1833. He started school at eight and at 14 went to work in the mines.
Too small to cut it underground, he was offered the opportunity to ride.
Standing next to a table decorated with images of Ingram atop horses, including Seania, Tap Dancer and His Honour, niece Kay Watt said he was a horse whisperer long before Robert Redford made the 1998 blockbuster.
She said her uncle had what is known in the industry as, “a good pair of hands” and a beautiful riding style in which he’d blend in with the movement of the horse. “He had an affi nity with horses,” she told the Herald.
Ingram did not believe in whipping his horse, saying “that won’t make it win”. Then he won the three big races of his life: The 1948 Railway Stakes on Gold Patios, the 1952 Railway Stakes on Aptofi neand the 1958 WA Derby on England’s Dust.
Family friend Shayne Bodycoat said “Uncle Jack” had been his dad’s best mate who had “a heart like lion”. He died peacefully on March 10, aged 87, in Rockingham, and is survived by nephews and nieces.
by JENNY DʼANGERFREMANTLE architect Brian Klopper has been honoured with a retrospective of his work at the University of WA.
The face of Fremantle architecture changed in the early 1980s, becoming distinctively “Freo”, with the term “a Klopper” soon entering the local real estate lexicon. His designs were so popular soon other architects were offering their own “kloppies”.
Long, lanky and with a shock of grey curls the 75-year-old shrugs off suggestions he was behind the port city’s architectural revolution. “I was part of a movement…there were other guys. Tom Campbell, Murray Slavin.”
For fans, Klopper’s work is as distinctive as it is different; enhanced by the use of limestone, recycled brick, steel and glass, and his signature vaulted brick ceilings—a nod to England’s industrial revolution architecture.
Even old railway line was used, bought cheap at the Midland rail yards: “It was easy to buy at the time. They’d cut it for you…You’d probably have to put a government tender in now.”
The fi nishes of his buildings were “rustic, not rough,” Klopper says.
“You have to be precise because you are not covering [walls] up.”
Klopper’s fi rst Fremantle project was a townhouse development on Bannister
Street, fronted by small shops.A master of small spaces that appear
spacious, are well-lit and have high ceilings, Klopper has also designed mansions in Cottesloe, a chapel for St Hilda’s, the Primaries warehouse conversion on South Terrace and even the toilet block on Fremantle Esplanade.
Klopper learned his craft at Perth Technical College, which ran WA’s only architectural course in the 1950s.
He worked for the public works department in the early ‘60s but was offended by the minimalist stuff he was expected to churn out, describing it as
“cruel and uncomfortable”. Following a working holiday in
Canada he returned home in the late ‘60s joining mate and North Freo architect Bob Gare (father to Sophie and Anna) to work for Len Buckeridge before striking out on their own.
His latest work is a funky limestone home in Samson Street, with a massive limestone vaulted roofed in the open plan living/dining/kitchen, fl ooded by light from a distinctively Klopperesque wall of steel and glass. The retrospective covers 40 years of Klopper’s work from 1971 and is on till April 13 in Cullity Gallery, UWA.

by BRENDAN FOSTERMYSTERY surrounds the identity of whomever “graffi tied” the giant numbat mural in Fremantle.
Last week someone taped the words “there are less than 1000 numbats left in the wild” at the rear of the marsupial, and “save Warrup forest” coming out of the animal’s mouth. The tags were later removed, without damage to the Henderson Street mall artwork.
The mystery tagger was referring to the WA government’s logging of forest near Bridgetown, home to one of the last remaining colonies of numbats in the south-west.
Fremantle mayor Brad Pettitt, a Greens party member, had said earlier in the
week Belgian artist ROA would probably be pleased his art work had “organically grown”.
But he was scratching his head when the words disappeared Wednesday.
“While there has been some healthy internal debate about how long the wording around the ROA numbat should stay for I have been assured that the ‘graffi ti’ around ROA’s numbat wasn’t taken down by the City of Fremantle graffi ti team or its contractors,” he said. “Who did is a mystery.”
WA conservation council boss Piers Verstegen was “disappointed” the tag had been removed.
“This was an important message for the community, and as it said, there are only less than 1000 numbats left in the wild. That is an absolute tragedy.”
• The words went up on ROA’s Numbat on Monday and were gone by Wednesday: Author unknown. Photo by Matthew Dwyer

A SPEARWOOD couple got the fright of their lives when a ute crashed through their Doolette Srtreet home Tuesday.
Margaret Taylor was sitting at the kitchen table with hubby Bill around 3pm, when a car rolled backwards down a steep driveway from across the road, ploughing through a spare bedroom. “It wasn’t quite like an explosion but it was a very loud sound. I went outside and nearly collapsed when I saw the car in the wall. I was shaking so badly, my husband had to hold me up,” Mrs Taylor told the Herald. “I don’t know if they shift the ute, if the wall will come down.”

DANIELE (not her real name) has neither seen or heard from her autistic child for 21 days.
This is despite a child protection bureaucrat telling the Children’s Court: “The department will facilitate contact between [the child] and mother.”
On March 6, the WA child protection department handed the seven-year-old child to her ex-husband, who has a history of violent behaviour dating back to 2006.
The next day, the department supplied Daniele’s address to the father, who has a spent conviction for leaving the partially disabled woman black and blue after she’d interrupted his football game on April 24, 2010: Two months later, the Fremantle Magistrates Court imposed a two-year violence restraining order following the aggravated assault in which she was choked and dragged by the hair through the house as punishment for knocking over the set top box on the TV.
RemovedThat order was removed just last
month, four months early, following the man’s appeals to the court. The VRO was overturned without the presence or knowledge of the mother.
The man is now seeking full custody of the child, who cannot be identifi ed.
The last time Daniele saw her only child was on March 2 when she dropped the child off to her ex-husband as part of access arrangements with the Family Court, which had given her primary care.
“How can they take my child?” Daniele asks? “We have a special bond.”
Daniele fears for her child’s safety and her own and will re-apply to have the VRO reinstated while her lawyer fi ghts for the child to be returned.
Last week, department director-general Terry Murphy told the Herald the mother has, “an acquired brain injury which affects her capacity to care for the child”.
“The child has been staying with the
CARMELO AMALFICA
father, unaided, for extensive regular periods with the sanction of the Family Court,” he said.
He said support agencies had withdrawn support for the woman and refused to provide carers for the child, “because of the stressful impact the mother was having on the child”. He said after extensive investigations, his department was, “able to substantiate concerns of neglect and emotion abuse by the mother towards her child”.
This was the reason the department wrote to the Family Court before removing the child, arguing it would take immediate action if the child was left with her. “The father does not have a criminal record of any offences, including violence, and there are no substantiated child abuse concerns in relation to him,” Mr Murphy said.
He added the mother had refused to speak to offi cers in Fremantle and, “as a result they have been unable to facilitate contact between her and her child”. On Wednesday, March 21, at a department meeting organised by the mother, she was told it would make arrangements for supervised visits. She is still waiting.
Daniele says her ex-husband’s 2010 conviction was spent because a recorded conviction would have jeopardised his ability to work and because she had dropped previous charges against him.
Her lawyer responded in writing to the man’s lawyer: “As you are aware, your client’s capacity (the ex-husband) has been an issue in the Family Court and will be an issue if this matter returned to the court on your client’s application.
“In particular, my client objects to your client’s use of physical discipline of (the child) and any assault not excused by law.
“In my opinion, it is self-evident that there is no immediate risk to the child.”
Daniele’s lawyer has also complained to the Fremantle chief magistrate that the decision to lift the 2010 VRO after a three-minute hearing without his client being present or being notifi ed was a “denial of natural justice”.
AggressiveSince her brain injury in 1998, Daniele
has worked on and off to support herself and her child. Medical reports state the child had become aggressive and uncooperative, had left the home on a number of occasions and was at risk if left alone.
Daniele has admitted to the department she struggles to cope, but at a meeting days before the intervention, she told child protection officers she’d used support services, and reported her child’s behaviour was improving in “a stable home”.
Senior department staff gave consent for the intervention anyway: “(The child) needs stability, predictability and safe care, therefore the department proposes that the child be placed in the care of (the) father.”
Gobsmacked, Daniele’s lawyer says the case highlights major failings by the department, which had not properly heard the mother’s version of events nor corroborated witness statements.
Daniele married in 2002 and divorced last year after what she claims is a litany of physical and verbal abuse. Police fi rst attended the former couple’s home in April 2006 and again in 2009, but she says she did not press charges because she had nowhere else to go with her autistic child.
The Herald asked WA child protection minister Robyn McSweeney whether she would ensure telephone contact between the child and mother. Her offi ce handballed the question to mental health and disability services minister Helen Morton, whose minder told the Herald: “This sounds like something for child protection.”
So as the bureaucracy clocks off for another week, Daniele faces another night alone.

by BRENDAN FOSTERTHE silver-haired surfers who used to catch waves down at Leighton Beach want the developer of the multi-million dollar seaside precinct to save the “the wall” from the wrecking ball.
The Herald reported last month some ageing surfers were planning to lay down in front of bulldozers to protect their old hang out—the north wall of the the old change rooms.
Now the wave riders are taking a different tack and want Mirvac, which will demolish the wall as part of its $4.1 million Fremantle Surf Life Saving Club project, to simply leave it alone.
Barry Brennan was getting some surfi ng lawyer mates to pore over the contracts between Fremantle city council and Mirvac to see if there was a way to preserve it.
“We can’t save the kiosk, but we could save the wall and turn it into a bike rack or even a climbing wall for the kids,” he said.
“The wall is a piece of surfi ng history heritage that needs to be saved.
“If that doesn’t happen, I know some brickie mates who would be happy to take the wall away brick by brick and build it somewhere else.”
Mr Brennan told the Herald
• Board maker Len Dibben (left) with Barry Brennan. Photo by Matthew Dwyer
if the wall is saved, it should be renamed the Len Dibben Wall, after the world-renowned board shaper who surfed Leighton in the late ‘50s.
“He is the elder statesman of the surf down there, so it should be named after him,” he said.
Mr Brennan is having a gathering of old-time surfers at the wall today (March 24) at 4pm to thrash out ideas on how to protect the modest monument to surfi ng history.
Mr Dibben told the Herald he was “chuffed” there was talk of the wall being named after him.
“At last I’m getting some recognition after making boards
Silver surfersseek to save wall
for 50 years,” he joked.“I used to surf down at
Leighton when there was a break, before they put all the groynes in.”
Fremantle mayor Brad Pettitt, who used to catch the odd wave at Leighton in the ‘90s, is also keen to preserve the iconic wall and mural.
“The City of Fremantle will need to look at the location of the new kiosk that council has committed to build,” he said.
“If it is not possible to retain it in its current location then we will examine if it is possible to reconstruct the wall in a new location.”
FOR the second time in two weeks, hundreds of Fremantle line commuters were left stranded following a peak-hour breakdown Tuesday morning.
Last week thousands were left high and dry after a small fi re shut down the entire metro network. This week a 6.40am power surge caused a transformer to fail, shutting down the line between Fremantle and Loch Street for more than three hours.
WA transport shadow Ken Travers wants a public inquiry into the ongoing dramas. He says if the system is being properly maintained, it shouldn’t be failing so often.
“Last week we were told it was an isolated incident and a week later it happens again,” he told the Herald.
Public Transport Authority bugle David Hynes says this week’s incident was completely unrelated to the widespread disruptions of last week.
Off the rails
Fremantle Herald, Saturday March 24, 2012 - Page 17
The 9th annual West Coast Blues ‘n’ Roots settles in to Fremantle Park on Sunday 1st April. WA’s multi-genre festival, tailored to
the true music lover, offers up an aural smorgasbord for those hungry for some soul food. This year’s stellar line up features John Fogerty, Crosby, Stills & Nash, The Pogues, The Specials, Buddy Guy, My Morning Jacket, Blitzen Trapper, Steve Earle, Keb’ Mo’, Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue, Gin Wigmore, Husky, The Sheepdogs, Zydecats, Felicity Groom and Ruby Boots.
John Fogerty is an American treasure, one of the all-time greatest singers, guitarists, and songwriters. His remarkable career began in California, where he soon earned massive popular and critical success with the Creedence Clearwater Revival. As leader of CCR,
Fogerty forged a distinctive, groundbreaking sound all his own, equal parts blues, country, pop, rockabilly, R&B, swamp boogie and Southern fried rock ‘n’ roll, all united by his uniquely evocative lyrical perspective. Fogerty will take to the stage for an amazing two hour set as he performs the legendary CCR album Cosmo’s Factory in full - with some of the band’s biggest hits, Lookin’ Out My Back Door, Up Around The Bend, Born On The Bayou and Who’ll Stop The Rain. This will be a magical moment in musical history that you won’t want to miss!
As three of the most infl uential fi gures in American contemporary music history, Crosby, Stills & Nash could be excused for taking a little time off. After all, they’ve been recording albums and touring for the better part of 5 decades! A rare and unparalleled pleasure to witness live, Crosby, Stills & Nash will be bringing their incredible songs, amazing guitar work and breathtaking harmonies to Fremantle Park.
Hailing from Coventry in the UK, The Specials have spent the better part of two decades giving a voice to the voiceless and documenting the plight of the common man. In fact, at their peak, they managed seven consecutive Top 10 UK singles including their smash hit A Message to You Rudy. They popularised the 2 tone ska sound still prominent today and are certain to bring their brilliant knack for starting a party to our shores.
As far as musical legends go, there aren’t many bigger fi sh in the sea than Buddy Guy. Buddy wowed the crowd during his last visit to the 2010 festival. Born and raised in Louisiana, Buddy carved an early reputation based on his fl amboyant performance and showmanship. Never before had a guitarist showed such incredible onstage fl air.
Blues n Roots organisers are proud to have kept the General Admission ticket at the incredible value for money price of $139 + BF. Under 18s are just $80 + BF and must be accompanied at ALL times by a parent.

“an aural smorgasbord for those hungry for some soul food”
After surviving the rough streets of 1980’s London and careering through three decades of Celtic madness, everyone’s favourite roustabouts The Pogues are fi nally making their return to our shores for the fi rst time since 1989. Led by erstwhile and always well lubricated front man Shane MacGowan, The Pogues represent a lurking danger, mystery and downright rowdiness that is long since extinct from popular music.

by STEVE GRANTWRAY AVENUE isn’t the thriving community it’s often made out to be.
English teacher Heath Adams bought in six years ago after hearing tales about Wray’s close-knit community, but says that beyond Galati’s deli the image of happy neighbours chatting over the fence didn’t materialise.
For a couple of years he didn’t even know there were kids living on the street.
Last year Mr Adams spotted their bright chalk drawings on the footpath and decided it was time to get to know his fellow Wrayers and foster a new sense of community.
InspiredInspired by Hulbert and Lilly
streets he handed out chalk up and down the avenue and encouraged people to brighten up their section of footpath.
“Everyone got just one colour, the idea being that they would knock on their neighbour’s door and swap colours while getting to know each other, and some of that did happen.”
Mr Adams says there was a tangible desire from people to be part of the community, and the success has led to a new project

this year: Making paper lanterns for Earth Hour.
He and partner Emma Jack have held two workshops, attracting about 20 neighbours, and on March 31 will string them along the avenue during a mini festival.
From about 3.30pm they’ll hold last-minute workshops (using mostly recycled materials) and chuck a few snags on a BBQ while musicians such as Dave Robertson, Marie O’Dwyer and Steve Andrews provide entertainment. At 8.30pm they’ll light the lanterns to coincide with Earth Hour.
It’s not the only action on Wray Ave at the moment, with Fremantle council due to adopt a precinct policy for public consultation on April 4.
The policy, largely driven by South City Precinct stalwart June Hutchison and architect Alan Kelsall, aims to protect the precinct’s distinctive streetscape. It was sparked by an unpopular development that came before council in 2010 and comes with a amendment to the local planning scheme.
Mr Kelsall says they tried to fi nd a way to marry the history of the area with planning policy so new development can fi t in better.
He concedes they weren’t
entirely successful, but he’s relatively happy with where the policy’s going, and says the precinct’s gleaned lots of information from early architecture and planning that developers can use to build successful shops and homes.
Older shops had taller ground fl oors giving them a greater visual presence, and opened directly onto the street to encourage trade.
He says a more recent development ignored this with a split-level entrance, and may pay the price in the future.
The Gronbek Security building at the corner of Hampton Road showed what could happen when a development “ticked all the boxes” for planning but took no account of its surroundings. It’s not his favourite contribution to the street.
Early maps revealed that Wray Ave—probably named after a bigwig at Fremantle Prison—was built on an angle to lessen its gradient, also passing up a small valley. By 1909 most houses near South Terrace had been built in the post-goldfi elds boom, while the top end of the street is dominated by later developments, which he believes could be one of the next Freo areas ripe for development.

Worried about keepingyour home safe and
secure while you’re on holidays, at work or even in the house?
The most important item in making your home safe from intruders is often overlooked when security is considered. Of course it’s your meterbox! The meterbox is like the heart of your home - without power you have no lights, no cordless phone, no electricity and in some cases no security systemThieves can switch off your power at the meterbox just to see if you have an active alarm system. Don’t rely on back-up batter-ies - they frequently fail because the use by date has been overlooked. Thieves would much rather go elsewhere than rob your home if the meterboxes are professionally locked up by the Meterbox Man. Locking your meterbox is recommended by the Police, Western Power, Alinta Gas, RAC and all insurance companies. So for peace of mind and a safer home call the Meterbox Man.

AT HOMEBRAD JEFFERIES
WHEN you search Google Maps to check this home
out, it still shows up as an empty block for sale.
I’m not having a go at the tech giant, I’m trying to show how new the home is: still a newborn, only six months old.
Inside and out it’s dominated by straight lines—vertical, horizontal, and both combined as squares. Recessed downlights that refl ect decorative shined metal and unblemished jarrah fl oors make it glitter.
Built into the contours of the hill, from the outside it appears deceptively smaller than it feels walking through cavernous halls.
BigDon’t get me wrong, it
looks like a big home from the outside—just not so big that it comfortably fi ts four bedrooms, three bathrooms, two garages for six cars, a study, a games room and spaces like an activity room for the kiddies and a home theatre.
There are two road fronts, one facing Williams Road which leads to a gated entrance and the downstairs living area, and another on Head Street with an entrance to the upstairs.
Everything inside looks untouched, and you can have plenty of fun customising rooms to your desired use.
One of the garages, for example, is big enough to fi t four and a half cars..or three cars and a boat...or three cars and a gym, or a rave cave, or...
Also downstairs is a games room, kitchenette, and a study with plush, dark carpet.
I can imagine loading up on movies and popcorn and hiding away in the home theatre, which boasts a 3D equipped rear projector and is tucked away at the rear of the bottom fl oor to keep pesky distractions to a minimum.
The main bedroom upstairs is typically huge and luxurious.
There’s an ensuite which, without doors, is part of the bedroom with only the tiled fl oor demarcating the divide between bedroom and bathroom.
Doors open to a balcony that spreads the length of the room, and is wide enough to fi t in a small table and some chairs.
Taking up a good sized chunk of the top fl oor is the open kitchen, dining and living room, with a little playroom for the kiddies.
One of the cool features is that the breakfast bench island extends outside through handleless glass doors, so if it’s a nice morning you can eat your fruit and muesli and read the paper outdoors.
The pergola-covered dining area outside is on a fl ash-looking marble type courtyard, and, with a bar fridge and loads of bench space, there’s plenty of space to mix up some drinks.
Just like the front yard the garden is still young but it’s all nicely landscaped and will look good in a couple of years.
A small pool—no lap swimming here—has also been squeezed in against the house, and what it lacks in size it makes up for with a dark, shiny blue lining and glass gate.
Kids can join the troves of little ones walking down the streets here towards Melville primary and Kadidjiny Park, which are just a street away. It’s also close to Marmion Street, Canning Highway, and dozens of shops and eateries.

AT HOMEJENNY D’ANGERAAAAAAJE
THERE was a time Fremantle was full of homes like this,
heritage gems in need of a bucket-load of TLC and a whole lot of elbow grease.
There was no shortage of people who in the 1980s saw the potential and they were snapped up and polished to perfection, to become part of the port city’s rich history.
So I was surprised to come across this limestone dwelling along Hampton Road in Beaconsfi eld—reminiscent of Cinderella waiting for the fairy godmother.
Built in 1892 it’s next to the old South Fremantle post offi ce and one wonders if there’s a connection.
The large three-bedroom limestone dwelling, on an elevated block, was no doubt home to the well-heeled, so who knows, maybe the post-master lived here.
The expansive front verandah has a commanding view across Hampton Road across South Fremantle.
The home has obviously had a chequered past with a few “interesting” additions—some in need of a sledgehammer (although I was quite tickled at the use of a single-arm wheel brace as a backdoor deadlock).
The front two bedrooms are vast, each with fi replaces and ceiling roses and one with a bay window onto the street.
A spacious central lounge also has a fi replace but no ceiling rose, but I can say from personal experience replacement is easy.
There’s absolutely no redeeming feature in the kitchen, it’s a horror. But the astute purchaser will see beyond and picture a big open plan living/kitchen/dining area, with bifold doors to a timbered deck, preferably with a cathedral roof against the elements.
Gardeners are hardier folk than chefs so the dismal grey
concrete slabs, lonely hills hoist and the old loo standing to attention in the middle of the yard will be seen more as a challenging palette than an insurmountable disaster.
Anyone keen on starting their own inner-city farm needs look no further because this home is set on a whopping 836sqm, dominated by a massive gum tree. For a place across the road from South Freo that’s a whopping lot of land.
The idea of subdividing to cover the cost of restoration will be a temptation, but I hope it’s
one that can be resisted.Beaconsfi eld primary school
is just up the road, as are a swag of shops and more than a couple of cafes and restaurants.
And of course Fremantle is a stone’s throw away in one direction and South Beach in the other.

sellers clearly benefi t from gaining access to a local agents’ network of would-be buyers and data base
of active known buyers.
Go Local and Get it RightFinding the right buyer for a property can be
one of the most challenging aspects of real estate practice. A thorough, well considered and properly implemented marketing plan will help a great deal by targeting the largest of the buyer groups; the active “unknown” buyer. These buyers tend to seek out advertised property, undertake their own research and visit home opens on the weekend. The other two buyer groups can be described as the “active known buyer”, those the agent have on a data base and the “latent buyer”, those buyers not actively looking but tempted to buy after seeing a particular property advertised.
Targeting the different buyer groups involves assessing which marketing media and approach might suit that particular group. Latent buyers are often attracted by large colour press adverts (such as those found in the Herald), whilst known buyers respond best to direct contact from the agent. But as most buyers are happy to “go it alone” in their search for property, an effective marketing campaign is crucial if they are to easily fi nd an individual property listed for
sale. Interestingly, the majority of buyers are
local folk moving about within their immediate neighbourhood. One local Fremantle agent with over 4800 sales reports that about 65 per cent of their buyers come from within the localities of Cockburn, Melville and Fremantle and East Fremantle. That is why local press advertising and an agent’s buyer data base can be so effective. Agents also report that only about 5 per
cent of buyers come from overseas or interstate and the remainder from the rest of metropolitan and rural WA.
Given the majority of buyers are locals then it makes sense to target property marketing locally and thankfully, the nature of the world-wide-web captures everyone else anyway. It follows that sellers clearly benefi t from gaining access to a local agents’ network of would-be buyers and data base of active known buyers.
Local agents, whilst competitors, are also “networked” to a certain extent and often introduce buyers to each others’ properties under conjunctional arrangements that benefi t both buyers and sellers.
Every area has a uniqueness punctuated with subtle nuances that an “out-of-town” agent can easily miss and arriving at an accurate opinion of market value when unfamiliar with the area increases the risk of either under-selling the property or pricing it too far above market.
Local agents have a great understanding of what types of properties are currently considered desirable in any given precinct and these trends change over time. For example, modern single level near-city houses are attracting a premium at the moment which may not be the same for say Subiaco where the buyer profi les are different.
It simply does not make sense to risk what is probably your greatest valued asset to anybody other than your preferred local REIWA agent.

SITTING in his Bali cafe sipping coffee, former Herald photographer
Neil Woodgate seems only a little smug when he says he’s living the dream.
With wife Miho and four-year-old son Umi he moved to the island paradise a couple of years ago and is building a house that wouldn’t look out of place on Grand Designs, with mountain views and fl anked by rice paddies.
He opened Cafe Vespa a few months ago and reckons life doesn’t get any better.
Despite being a bit off the beaten track—it’s a 10-minute drive from the centre of Ubud—business is booming.
After eight days of dining in high(ish) end restaurants and local warungs from Sanur to Ubud and Pandangbai the D’Anger duo still reckoned Cafe Vespa’s were the best meals we’d eaten.
Banana/coconut pancakes are a Bali staple, on menus everywhere, but these took it to a whole new level.
A delicate green (from the pandan plant) they were light

and fl uffy, the banana inside warm and moist but still fi rm.
I washed them down with a freshly squeezed jamu jamu (15000 rupiah/$1.50). A mix of orange juice, honey and freshly squeezed turmeric, it had a pungent, spicy kick. I was in heaven.
Back for lunch we went for the chicken/tofu steak (44,000rph/$4.50).
Chicken mince tends to be heavy, leaving the stomach leaden but the addition of tofu gives these patties a light texture and fl ame-grilling adds to the wonderful spicy taste.
We were pleased to see fi ltered water used to wash the vegetables so we hoed into the patties’ accompanying salad: For me a delicious pumpkin and rocket, for the other ‘alf a Mediterranean.
We repeated it all the next day.
The Woodgates have spent
endless hours perfecting baked goodies for western tastebuds and the result is some great cakes, not to mention a terrifi c apple pie (23,000rph/$2.40) that had Dangerous Dave hanging out for more, especially with some green tea ice cream.
Sticklers for perfection the Woodgates eschewed microwaving and banned it altogether after an over-eager staffer nuked a salad, so our pie arrived with a crisp crust from the oven. Dangermouse had tried one back in Sanur and almost cried with disappointment.
Since I last saw Neil he’s become something of a coffee fanatic, devising his own six-bean blend that is freshly ground for each individual cup.
He reckons it’s the best coffee (15000rph/$1.50) on the island, and I’m not about to disagree: It’s good, very good.
We left reluctantly, and not just because we were leaving friends behind.

by BRENDAN FOSTERTHE port city will come under the spotlight in Deckchair Theatre’s new season, featuring two world premieres about Fremantle.
The Fremantle Candidate (July 19-August 5), written by local playwright Ingle Knight looks at the dark side of John Curtin’s rise from political oblivion to becoming prime minister.
And Sketches of Freo (November 2-11) sees four of WA’s best playwrights peel back the layers of the port city to reveal some of the town’s hidden secrets.
Artistic director Chris Bendall hopes the local yarns will bring portsiders back to the company’s Victoria Hall HQ.
“It’s part of our charter to tell
by FAITH RANSOM
ANNE SEXTON was one of the most well-paid, talented
writers in the ‘60s says Lois Achimovich, co-director and writer of the play Red Silk.
“I was fairly gob-smacked by what happened to her by her psychiatrists,” says Dr Achimovich, a psychiatrist herself and Fremantle resident.
“She was abused in her family which was denied by the psychiatrist,” while she had an ‘affair’ with another.
Dr Achimovich refers to Glen Gabbard’s study of 300 fi lms featuring psychiatrists, with the vast majority featuring sexual relationships with patients.
“The general public might think it is romantic but it’s really doing damage,” she says.
“There was little protection until the turn of the century, around about 2000, when women said they had been abused by a doctor, it was frequently said that they were making it up.
“There’s now a lot of work to show that not only are boundary violations common but they also are damaging to the patient,
• Roz Hammond as Anne Sexton.Photo by Lawrie Cullen-Tait
especially if the patient has been abused as a child.”
One of the doctors in Red Silk is accused of having, “exploited
Play tackles sexiatry
[Sexton’s] privacy by posthumously releasing her taped therapy sessions to her biographer, which caused an uproar in the New York Times in the ‘80s.
“It was the wrong thing to do but it was hugely useful for the biographer…and myself,” Dr Achimovich says.
Red Silk fi ctionally depicts 46-year-old Sexton’s fi nal 24 hours before her suicide in 1974.
AussieTheatre lauds the play as, “disquieting, very dynamic, and relentlessly sharp” and Theatre Australia says it’s “a ‘must see’.”
Red Silk is on at the Blue Room, Northbridge, March 13–31, 2012 at 7pm. Tickets $15–$25.
Fremantle stories and it’s also about staking our place in the community,” he says. “But part of is personal interest because I want to explore and learn more about Fremantle’s history.
“The stories may be about Fremantle, but I still think they are universal.”
Spruced upDeckchair HQ, the 117-year-
old Victoria Hall on High Street, is getting spruced up with new air-con and at long last some decent seating.
Mr Bendall says the renovations will thrust the interior of the one-time parish hall into the 21st century.
“It will make a huge difference and the venue will become sleek and professional and look like a theatre,” he says.
“And it will be comfortable too.”
Part of the $570,000 renovations should be complete in time for Deckchair’s fi rst 2012 offering, Vanessa Bate’s The Magic Hour (May 17-June 3).
The one-woman show stars one of Australia’s most beautiful songbirds, Ursula Yovich, as she retells some classic fairy tales.
The company has appointed former NZ senior arts adviser Michael Daly as executive producer: “I’m delighted to be back in Australia and working alongside Chris Bendall and the Deckchair staff and board,” Mr Daly says. “And it’s a timely opportunity to make some improvements, as well as look at the vital role we play right now and in the future for Australian theatre—it’s exciting to be part of that.”

hard to fi nd, that’s why I guarantee you’ll have me arrive
on time. I’ll be courteous, respectful & in uniform. I will

March 24 - March 31, 2012
ARIES (Mar 21 – Apr 20)The Sun, Moon and Uranus, are all in Aries at the beginning of the week. If
this doesn’t turn you into a bouquet of fi re-crackers, nothing will. Get very comfortable in your own skin. The expressive soul that you are, is about due for a full theatrical manifestation.
TAURUS (Apr 21 – May 20)Though the heat is on as the Sun and Moon enter Aries, you are well placed
to stay centred and weather the storm. As life’s whirligig does it’s thing in your close proximity, remain steady, unmoved and at the ready with a chuckle. Ride the changes and drama lightly.
GEMINI (May 21 – June 21)All the action in Aries fi res you up with excitement and a sense of
adventure. The Sun and Moon are now well placed in the land of the Ram. Though common sense is likely to go temporarily out the window, aliveness won’t. Go where the action is. You are a key player.
CANCER (June 22 – July 22)When action, adventure and excitement are brewing, the natural
tendency of crustaceans is to silently remove themselves from the fi ring line. It’s perfectly fi ne to go to ground. Your feeling and foresight is too acute to get involved just now. Wait for a wise impulse.
LEO (July 23 – Aug 22)It makes you very happy to see that the Sun and Moon are joining
Uranus in fellow fi re sign, Aries. Stagnation is about to be removed, in no uncertain terms. Any upheaval is really a cleaning out. You know it and support it every inch of the way. Embrace change.
VIRGO (Aug 23 – Sept 22)Though there is plenty of intense action and activity about, you are generally
unmoved. You aren’t about to be thrown off course by the whims and whimsies of others. You have your fl ag planted. It would take an almighty force to divert you from your course.
LIBRA (Sept 23 – Oct 23)With the Sun, Moon and Uranus all now in your opposite sign Aries, this
is a hot moment for all equilibrium seeking Librans. A balance that is removed from life is no balance at all. Standing on a tightrope in a high wind over the Niagara Falls is balance. Make the shift.
SCORPIO (Oct 24 – Nov 21) Your love of intensity is no secret. There is plenty of it around at the
moment. Though you aren’t at the epicentre of the psycho-dramatic cyclone, you are clearly adding your ten cents worth from the sidelines. Remember to be so graceful, when it’s your turn in the spotlight.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 – Dec 21)That the Sun has moved into a fi re sign, Aries, makes you very happy indeed.
Rather than being marooned in a sea of feelings, you can sense aliveness and passion again. Be careful not to let your excitement completely override your sensitivity. Awareness is still required.
CAPRICORN (Dec 22 – Jan 19)This is going to be a rocky ride. With The Sun and Moon in Aries, along with
Uranus - the cosmic rebel - events and people are likely to be impulsive and erratic. This could throw you to your conservative side, initially. Wait till you can be heard, before attempting control.
AQUARIUS (Jan 20 – Feb 18)Wherever it is you have been feeling stuck, is exactly where you are going
to come unstuck. Remember, as the dam walls are falling down, that this is a huge blessing. Life has more up its sleeve than we can imagine. The moment we pre-empt it, we stop the fl ow. Don’t!
PISCES (Feb 19 – Mar 20)By some miracle you are having a smooth run. How that is, boggles the
brain. There is enough feistiness and fi re going on nearby to throw a draughthorse off track. Perhaps you know somewhere that all activity is essentially on the surface. What’s real is down deep.
