Canungra’s twilight Bull Ride and teams penning provided plenty of excitement for the crowd at Canungra Showgrounds on Saturday 13th October 2012.

Competitors came from through-out Queensland to ride in the event as a lead up to the Professional Bull Riding Championships.

The Open Bull Ride was won by

James Hayes, with Jayden Sims coming second.

Canungra A H & I Society Secre-tary, Shona Kraayvanger, said it was a great night with an enthusiastic crowd, relaxed atmosphere and a great band in the evening.

“Teams Penning is becoming a popular sport,” said Shona, “We had good entries, including teams from

Beaudesert, Boonah and Gympie which made for an exciting final.”

“This is our second year of the Bull Ride and it was good to see both competitor and crowd numbers up on last year,” she said.

Mary’s Legacy Lives On In The ‘Hart’ Of Canungra

The legacy of the late Mary Hart will remain in Canungra permanently, following the installation of a bronze plaque at the Mexican Weeping Pine known as ‘Mary’s Tree’.

Council recently installed the plaque to allow visitors and future generations to learn the history of the tree, which today stands tall as a tribute to Mary’s contribution to the area.

Mary brought the seedling tree back from the 1951 Country Women’s Association (CWA) Bris-bane State Conference where the country of inter-est that year was Mexico.

That seedling was planted in DJ Smith Park on Christie Street and has since grown to be a well-known feature in her home town.

Deputy Mayor Virginia West recently visited the park to view the plaque with Joanne Rye and Joyce Libke from Wonglepong CWA and Carol Mahony, whose mother-in-law cared for Mary Hart in her later years.

“Mary spent the majority of her life in Canungra and was very active in the Wonglepong CWA and many other local organisations,” she said.

“This will serve as a lasting reminder of her deep connection with our community,” she said.

The plaque reads: MARY’S TREEThis Mexican Weeping Pine (Pinus patula) was

donated by Mary Hart (1912-2011) for planting in this park. Mary was very active in Wonglepong

Country Women’s Association (CWA) and other local organisations.

Mary bought this seedling tree back from the Bris-bane CWA State Conference (1951) where the country of interest that year was Mexico.

That seedling tree has grown to be a dominant feature of the landscape in her home town and stands as a tribute to Mary Hart’s contribution to the area.

Joanne Rye, Joyce Libke, Carol Mahony and Cr Virginia West admire the new plaque at Mary’s Tree.

grantS avaiLaBLe to communitY groupS

Queensland community and volunteer groups who help others can now apply for a share of $1.35 million to buy essential items to help their local communities.

Member for Beaudesert Jon Krause said the community and volunteer groups in the Beaudesert electorate should take advantage of the small grants for up to $15,000 depending on the needs of indi-vidual community groups in the local Beaudesert electorate.

“Up to $5,000 is available towards small equipment, such as computers, upgraded software or white goods,” Jon said.

“Organisations can also apply for bigger grants of up to $15,000, which may be considered for more substantial projects, such as making food preparation areas compliant with regulations.”

“I would encourage all community and volunteer groups in our electorate to apply for funding under this new initiative.”

Applications can be made at www.communities.qld.gov.au until 3pm on Monday 4th December 2012.

“The application process is quick and paperless to make it as easy as possible for community groups,” Mr Krause said.

“The cost of equipment can quickly mount up for these organisations, so we’re doing what we can to help them keep up their great work.”

Now is the time to book your UK and Europe Early-bird flight and accommodation packages for travel in 2013.

For the trip of a lifetime, the UK and Europe are amazing holiday destinations which offer a great range of diversity. From the buzzing streets of London and must see landmarks such as Big Ben, Tower of London and Buckingham Palace, to the stunning landscapes and medieval castles of Germany, to the spectacular ancient city of Rome and the beauty and romance of Paris. You can have a truly unforgettable experience!

Earlybird deals leave consumers with peace of mind that their holiday has been booked without having to worry about availability on popular routes making these specials valuable, particularly for summer travel and the general rule still holds true – the cheapest fares tend to sell first.

Only a limited number of seats are available at the advertised price, so it does pay to book early.

The key to deciding whether to take up an early-bird offer or wait, hoping for a better deal, is to ask yourself how flexible you can be. If you have your heart set on a particular destination or need a flight to meet a cruise or tour departure, an Earlybird deal is a good bet.

Airlines are not the only ones offering Earlybird Deals.

Ocean and River Cruise companies, International and Domestic Ski operators, Coach Tour operators, even Small Group Journey’s to South America or the Middle East for example … Earlybirds really do catch the World.

Super Bike SuccessCompeting for the BMW Super Bike

Team in international championships is a dream come true for Canungra local, Gareth Jones.

Gareth grew up in Canungra after his parents, Glyn and Gillian, moved to the area in 1989 when Gareth was only two years old.

Growing up, he did a lot of dirt bike riding with friends on properties in the area. He began competing on 250cc bikes in 2001 at a national level, later moving to 600cc bikes.

In 2008, Gareth and his family decided if he was to make a career in superbikes he would have to go overseas.

“Mum and Dad put everything behind me,” said Gareth, “I went to Europe and rode for a British team in the Euorpean championships. The circuit is different, a much higher level than I was used to. It was a real learning year.”

Their decision to go overseas was vindi-cated in 2009 when Gareth won the Dutch Superbikes Championship. He spent the next three years living in Germany, build-ing his skills, racing in the highly competi-tive German Championship from March to October and coming home to Canungra for

the remainder of the year.This year Gareth finished fourth in the

German championship, achieved five podium places and a fastest race lap. He finished in the top eight consistently, giving him the status of top Australian rider in the championship.

He has been Contracted to ride for the BMW Factory Team in 2013, a position he says he had to work hard to earn. The bikes have around 215 horse power with top speeds of up to 315 kilometres per hour.

In the off season, Gareth is building and preparing for the next season. He trains on a trials bike with Kale Reed of Total Trials two to three times per week and has recently started personal training with local trainer, Steve Crooks. The regime includes weights three times a week and regular cardio training.

Gareth said he is very appreciative of the support he has received from local busi-nesses Cafe Metz, The Outpost Cafe, Total Trials and Steve’s Personal Training.

“2012 has set the base for me to go for only one thing next year and I’ll be working harder than ever before to bring the title home with me in 2013,” he said.

Canungra’s History…eDwin (teD) BoDe: 1859 - 1926

(Reference: Canungra Visitor Information Centre)Edwin Bode, painter and photographer,

was born in Birmingham, England.He came to Australia, arriving in

Queensland in 1882 where he purchased 160 acres on the Commera River and built a modest house ‘Maybury’.

Bode brought out an oil painting from England, Close Friends and my Home Road, which stood unframed on an easel in his house for many years. When the Walker family purchased Maybury from Bode it was the only object that remained in the house. It now resides in the replica of Bode’s Hut in Canungra after being rescued from a fire in 1900 by the Walkers.

Bode moved to Canungra in 1886 where he lived in a small hut opposite the cemetery. He travelled throughout the hinterland, working on properties in the Canungra, Wonglepong and Mt Tambo-rine regions, painting exquisitely detailed watercolours of homesteads.

For a time he lived in one of the small huts erected for workers at the Canungra sawmill owned by the Lahey family.

Bode abandoned oils in Queensland and worked exclusively in watercolours, becoming ‘one of the finest artists to document early pastoral scenes of the Gold Coast’. Many of his paintings are still with descendants of the families who first acquired them. They include: At Canungra 1886 (Gold Coast City Art Callery Collection); Valley of Nerang from Mt Roberts 1923 (GCCAGC); Homestead Crossing, Coomera River 1919 (private collection); Upper Coomera Wharf 1889 (Rex Nan Kivell Collection, National Library of Australia); Numinbah Falls 1907 (GCCAG, purchased 1992); Orbust Farm (Nerang Side of Carrara) 1888 (Local Studies Libtrary, Gold Coast City Council); and - one of his largest and most impressive works - Lower Falls Guanaba, Tamborine (Fall said to be 180 feet) 1898 (GCCAG, purchased 2000).

His earliest known Queensland

paintings are Phillipott’s Pinnacle on the Nerang and a View of the Cobb and Co coach at the Coomera ferry, both painted in 1884.

In the early 1900’s, Bode travelled to Sydney, where he painted a number of harbour views. Then he returned to Canungra and continued his prolific records of that region.

In 1913 he began to experiement with photography, developing his own films and using some of the resulting land-scapes, predominantly of the Canungra region, as references for his paintings.

Edwin Bode died in 1926 and is buried in the Wonglepong cemetery, Canungra. His tombstone, carved in sandstone with artist’s palette and brushes, was funded by Canungra residents and friends. It is inscribed: ‘Erected by the many friends and admirers of our natural artist, E Bode, in memory of his glorious work’.

Edwin Bode’s work can be viewed in The Artist’s Hut in D J Smith Park, Canungra and in the Canungra Visitor Information Centre.

In Brief...kokoDa chaLLenge recogniSeD

The Kokoda Challenge, organised by the Kokoda Chal-lenge Association, based in Southport, Qld took out the The Brisbane City Council Outdoor Event Award at the 11th annual Queensland Outdoor Recreation Awards in Brisbane on Friday 26th October. The Awards recognise outstanding efforts by individuals and organisations in the Queensland outdoor recreation sector.

The Kokoda Challenge on the Gold Coast Hinterland is hailed as Australia’s toughest endurance event. Partici-pants trek a 96km course that leads along fire trails, crosses 12 creeks and summits 5,000m of vertical elevation.

The goal is to finish as a complete team of four in honour of the spirit forged on the Kokoda Track in 1942: mateship, endurance, courage and sacrifice.

Regardless of fitness level, age or background, people from all walks of life find participating in the Kokoda Challenge not only a great personal achievement, but a way to honour the Kokoda legacy.

A Sobering ExperienceBy Chloe Pickard

The ninth Young Driver Safety Night was a successful sobering experience, with over 30 young drivers, soon-to-be-drivers and their parents attending.

Organiser Norman Graham and a panel of emergency response workers all spoke about what they had seen doing their jobs, chaired by Cr Virginia West.

Sergeant Ken Josling told the young drivers that one in four of them would be involved in a serious injury crash before they were 25.

“Everyone in the car is responsible,” he said. “Don’t stay in the car if someone is doing the wrong thing.”

Firefighter Cameron Spaulding said that the majority of their work is car crashes. He showed the ‘jaws of life’ used to prize drivers from their smashed vehicles.

Norman Graham was the last speaker and told the story of how his son Jared Graham died in a crash when he was nine-teen years old. He brought his son’s birth certificate, death certificate and drivers’

licence to show those present and urged them to think of the consequences of unsafe driving.

“Have a great life,” he told them.According to the Department of Trans-

port and Main Roads web site, young drivers (17 - 24) are one of Queensland’s most at risk road user groups. In Queensland each year:• approximately 100 fatalities occur as

a result of crashes involving young drivers (this statistic includes drivers, pedestrians and passengers)

• over 2000 young drivers are involved in hospitalisation crashes.

• about 80% of young drivers involved in fatal crashes are males.Parents and learning drivers can access

the Keys2go website and book a free hour long driving lesson as part of the ‘train the trainer’ designed to practically help young drivers.

See http://www.keys2drive.com.au for more information.

COUNCIL SEEKS COMMUNITY INPUT ON CANUNGRA STUDY

Council is inviting the Canungra community to have their say on the Draft Canungra Local Planning Study.

The draft study outlines a 20-year vision and strategic plan for managing future development in Canungra. It proposes a vision in which Canungra continues to be a thriving rural village and maintains the lifestyle and character that is priority for residents.

As part of the consultation process, Council is inviting the local community to a public information session in November and is also seeking feedback on the draft study through a community survey.

“The consultation process is an impor-tant step in the development of this plan for Canungra’s future. Council is keen to hear from the community,” Mayor John Brent said.

“The upcoming information session will provide the local community an opportu-nity to gain a deeper understanding of the proposed planning strategy and provide access to key project representatives who will be there to answer questions.”

The information session will be held at Canungra State School in Christie Street on Thursday 22nd November, from 6pm-8pm.

A discussion paper inviting feedback on the Draft Canungra Local Planning Study will soon arrive in letterboxes throughout the Canungra area and the community is invited to provide comment on the plan.

This can be done via the survey form within the discussion paper or online through the Have Your Say section of Council’s website www.scenicrim.qld.gov.au.

Community members have until 15th December 2012 to provide feedback on the study All feedback will be reviewed and considered in regard to the proposed planning options for Canungra. The outcomes of the consultation are intended to help inform the new planning scheme for Scenic Rim.

A copy of the Draft Canungra Local Planning Study and Discussion Paper can be downloaded from Council’s website. A hard copy or CD version can be purchased by phoning Scenic Rim Regional Council on 5540 5111.

The Draft Canungra Local Planning Study and Discussion Paper are also avail-able for review at Council libraries in Beaudesert and Canungra and at Council’s Customer Service Centre at Beaudesert.

Bruce Willis and Joseph Gordon-Levitt in Looper.

CT’s Movie ReviewLooper

By Chloe PickardLooper is a dystopian crime/science fiction story and

one of the better films I’ve seen this year. Director Rian Johnson has been watched since his

2005 high school noir film Brick, and he doesn’t disap-point with his third.

Joseph Gordon Levitt plays Joe, a self-centred hitman used to kill people sent back into the past. Bruce Willis, free of his usual smirking one-liners, plays his older self who comes back to warn him of a threat in the future. Why he’s been sent back and what happens next is too important to give away, but I couldn’t guess what was going to happen next.

The film doesn’t have a convoluted explanation for the time-travelling and little attention is paid to any of it’s technical details, but there are still no holes in the plot that come back to nag you later.

Catch this in the cinema while you still can!

Hope for Biddaddaba Road ResidentsBy Chloe Pickard

Engineers from the Department of Transport and Main Roads recently inspected the low floodway on the corner of Wonglepong Road, raising hopes of funding for it from the next Newman Government budget.

The road meeting was attended by Member for Beaudesert Jon Krause, District 3 Council-lor Virginia West, District 2 Councillor Nadia O’Carrol, Roads and Transport representative Gavin Massingham, Deputy Regional Director David Gross, Scenic Rim Infrastructure Direc-tor Patrick Murphy, the Biddaddaba Action Group and locals.

Cavell Bridge has been closed for an indeter-minate time as it has deteriorated more rapidly than expected, leaving Boyland residents at risk of being unable to leave if floods cut off the low bypass created to replace the bridge. Its closure has been a factor in the floodway being re-examined.

Member for Beaudesert Jon Krause said that having the engineers there was a step in the right direction to having the floodway placed on the next Queensland Transport and Roads Investment Program.

“As their local representative, I’m going out there and pushing the case as hard as I can,” he said. “Getting it on the radar is important.”

The Biddaddaba Action Group has been stressing the point of emergency services being unable to get through when the low causeway is flooded.

President of Biddaddaba Action Group George Massam said that bringing the floodway back to the government’s attention was a plus.

“If we can get it done even in 2015 or 2016,

I’d be happy,” he said.He felt Mr Krause had done well in represent-

ing the community and the problem.

Canungra and Beechmont to Share in Maintenance Funds

Member for Beaudesert Jon Krause today announced that twenty four schools in the electorate, including Canungra and Beechmont State Schools, would receive vital mainte-nance funding under the Newman Government’s $200 million school maintenance fund.

Mr Krause said each school would receive up to $160,000 to fix existing priority main-tenance issues under the two-year Advancing Our Schools Maintenance Fund. Canungra State School will receive $84,550 and Beechmont will receive $19,490.

“Whether it’s peeling paint, uneven footpaths or torn and stained carpet, too many of our state schools have maintenance issues that have become potential health and safety hazards for our children and teachers,” Mr Krause said.

“This new fund is about making our schools safer. It’s about ensuring our children have access to the best school facilities and a safer environment in which to learn.”

“The local school principals and P & C members that I have spoken to are quite excited by the plan, ” Mr Krause said.

Minister for Education, Training and Employment John-Paul Langbroek said in addi-tion to the Maintenance Fund schools were now untied from QBuild which meant private providers could carry out maintenance work.

“Schools now have the option to choose to continue to use QBuild or to go directly to the market for the delivery of all planned and routine breakdown maintenance,” Mr Langbroek said.

“To qualify for the funding P&Cs will be asked to obtain three quotes from profession-als to submit with their application. The Government will also ask P&C organisations and schools to contribute to the maintenance task if they have funds to do so.”

“I support the Ministers comments that this approach is about empowering local school communities and reflects our belief that a government bureaucracy, no matter how well intentioned, does not always know best.”

Mr Langbroek said $100 million would be available in 2012-13 and a further $100 million would be available in 2013-14.

“There are twenty four schools in our Beaudesert electorate that will be getting funds totaling $1,656,625. That is a great boost for our electorate” Mr Krause said.

Creativity In Two Fabulous GardensTwo fabulous gardens are open to the public on the weekend of 10th and 11th Novem-

ber as part of the Open Gardens Australia Program.anteLme garDen

Nothing gives garden owners Philippe and Angela Antelme greater pleasure than to see their family and friends enjoying the wonderfully rambling family garden they have created at 44–52 Andrews Court, Chambers Flat.

“It always makes me happy to see the children having fun here. And it’s wonder-ful to be eating our own vegetables and to see the girls picking flowers for the house,” says Philippe, a landscape designer.

Once covered in native scrub, the garden has been built up gradually over the years and the house was built almost entirely from recycled materials.

The garden displays imaginative combi-nations of lush exotic plantings and origi-nal vegetation, with a lovely rose garden, fenced picking garden, citrus grove, vege-table beds and a chook house.

Extras include artist and sculpture activ-ity for children; guided tours by Philippe Antelme at 10.30am and 2pm and a perfor-mance by Cantible Girls Choir at 3.30pm.

Joncia garDenSDeveloped over twenty years from

scratch, the extraordinary, award-winning garden at 35–63 Derby Road, Logan Reserve, is a triumph!

Packed with features and sprawling over three acres, the garden contains many distinct areas, including a formal area with roses, elegant arbours and statues, a Japa-nese garden with a vibrant red oriental bridge, a cottage area with a Monet-style bridge, and a rainforest area.

According to garden owners John and Marcia Rivett, the garden was never planned to be so big, it just “grew and grew out of a driving passion, with lots of trial and error, and continual changes”.

There is an area planted with natives, which is alive with birdsong and native wildlife. A recent addition to this lovely area is the charming Little Bush Chapel with its leadlight windows and camphor laurel pews.

Teas and light lunches will be available in both gardens and plants will be for sale.

Recently a friend posted this on Facebook: It is definitely true you reap what you sow... be warned

everyone. Recently this lesson really hit me. I didn’t keep the top shelf of my wardrobe clean and organised and a box fell out and hit me on the head.

It made me think how true that saying (a paraphrasing of a biblical quote) is - you reap what you sow. It means everything that happens to you is a result of your own actions. This can be true of many things, but is certainly the case when it comes to being involved in your local community.

Several local community organisations are struggling for volunteers. The dynamics of our community has changed over the last 50 years. Where once Canungra was a farming community with most residents living and working close to town, we now have many residents travelling up to two hours a day to get to work.

This changed dynamic means there is less time and energy for residents to become involved in communi-ty organisations. However, the benefits of this type of volunteer work are enormous. Not only can you assist to build your community, you meet people in the area, gain new skills and increase your own sense of satisfaction.

Want to volunteer but don’t know where to start? Call The Canungra Times - we are happy to help you make contacts in the community!

Have a great month, everyone and remember: You reap what you sow.

Live Local Music at Canungra RSL Services ClubCanungra RSL Services Club has introduced

a great line up of local talent to it’s new Sunday Sessions.

The RSL has been hosting an Open Mike Session on the second Sunday of every month. Perfect Strangers provide the anchor and invite local musicians to jam with them throughout the afternoon.

The next Open Mike Session is on Sunday 11th November from 1pm.

November’s line up also features the Owl Valley Bluegrass session, who played on 28th October as well as joining in October’s Open Mike Session. Their lineup includes Stewart Porter who plays guitar and mandolin, with Rob Davis on banjo and Mark Webber on double bass with the occasional guest artist to change the dynamic of the band on the day.

Stewart and Rob played together in the late 80’s and early 90’s around Sanctuary Cove. It was obvious to the crowd on 28th October that the three of them enjoy playing together and the mix of music and energy was electric.

Guitarist and vocalist, Jamie Cotton will perform at the RSL on Sunday 4th November and Melbourne Cup day.

Jamie performs with local band The Tipsy Harlots but will be a solo performer at the Sunday sessions. Originally from the UK, Jamie has been playing guitar since he was 13 years old and has performed in bands in the UK and Australia.

Popular vocalist Susie Reiser will perform on Sunday 18th November.

Susie covers all genres and sings a variety of covers ranging from Traveling Wilburies, Tracy Chapman, P!nk, John Denver, Cold Chisel, to Creedence and The Script. Susie says she doesn’t really stick to one genre as being able

to perform a range of music enables her to keep most patrons happy.

ALL THINGS BRITISHBy Robyn Lee

On the evening of 13th October 2012 a group of enthusiastic participants took part in a Trivia Night and Dinner with the theme of Royalty and the Olympics (ie all things British), held at the revamped Canungra Uniting Church Hall.

Everyone was treated to a magnificent feast of British fare prepared and cooked by the Ford family, headed by Allan. The purpose of the evening was to raise funds for Religious Education materials used at the Canungra State School.

Trivia Master was John King all decked out in his red, white and blue vest and tie. He kept the night moving along with his jokes and “interesting” facts.

Many thanks need to go to local businesses who donated goods for the evening including Canungra Caltex, Canungra Pharmacy, T-Bone Butchery, Bean In?, Greenlee Farm, Canungra Valley Vineyard and Canungra Hotel.

The winner of the lucky door prize of a cooker was Barbara Fulcher. The evening would not have been complete without prizes for the best dressed. The very worthy winners were Pam Moriarty, Peta Tierney and Steve Moriarty.

canungra LocaL pLanning StuDYAll residents with a 4275 postcode will receive correspondence about the draft plan in

early November and this will be followed by a period of community consultation.Consultation will be in the form of an information evening to be held on November

22nd from 6pm till 8pm at the Canungra School Hall and a further static display at the Canungra Library.

I do encourage all residents to be involved in this process and let Council know if the draft plan reflects the community’s views for the future.

BromeLton inDuStriaL park upDateCouncil has adopted the Bromelton Structure Plan following the Second State Interest

Approval by the State Government Minister for Development, Infrastructure and Plan-ning - Deputy Premier Jeff Seeney.

This means now that Council has been given the go-ahead to complete the final steps in the process towards paving the way for this new industrial precinct within our region. I know the process has been lengthy but I can assure all residents that this will drive growth in Scenic Rim for many years to come and will certainly provide a strong base for employment and business opportunities close to home. The Coordinator General will now be working closely with Council officers to ensure the development scheme aligns to Council’s planning scheme.

cmca raLLYYou may have noticed an increase in the number of motor homes on our roads in recent

weeks as campervan owners headed to Boonah for the annual CMCA National Rally.This is the first time the event has been held in Scenic Rim and has had the potential not

only to inject significant financial advantages to our local economy but also huge tourism advantages for the region. The Boonah Showgrounds were transformed into a mini city with over 1100 vans on site; more land had to be found at the last minute as greater than expected numbers turned up.

Various bus tours to Beechmont, Canungra and Tamborine Mtn were booked out and feedback from those who attended was exceptional.

The Junior and Masters swimming clubs conducted a car wash on the weekend in front of the school.

Mrs Murphy kindly allowed us to use the school hoses and water for the event. We set up a BBQ early and patrons were able to have a sausage and drink while they waited for their car to be washed. Jahlan, Molly, Tiarn and Ebony chased up customers from Foodworks and the rest of us washed. Special mention goes to Bettina, Abby, Zali, Erynn and Malita who diligently washed cars for four hours!

The Clubs raised over $400 in the four hours that the car wash was active so a big thank you to the townsfolk of Canungra for your support.

Also a huge shout out to the school for without their support the event would not have happened. Next event will be a Fun Day at the pool with a jumping castle, sausage sizzle and lots of other fun stuff.

Warm Regards, Alanna Phillips

Your Stars - November 2012ARIES (Mar 21 – Apr 20)

As Mars moves through Sagittarius and into Capricorn, so you move the ideas you feel to be true into action. Practical application involves a whole different set of skills than walking around being wildly inspired. Don’t butt and kick if there’s boredom. Go deeper.TAURUS (Apr 21 – May 20)

Love takes you from romantic delight into the intensity and honesty that is bound to arise after all the masks fall off. Rather than be upset or disillusioned, see this as your golden chance to find that kind of love that is deeper than surface gloss. Make the beauty real.GEMINI (May 21 – June 21)

Mercury spends most of the next month retrograde – appearing to go backwards. This is normally seen as a time when communication goes askew. It’s going to take all your wit and wisdom to make sure this doesn’t become the case. Be prepared to name difficult feelings. CANCER (June 22 – Jul 22)

The Moon is generally heading in the direction of landing in your lounge-room. As she sends her beams of light through your window, so a soft, steady feeling moves across your heart, making you feel at home. Don’t worry about words and ideas. Settle in to your feelings. LEO (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

The Sun moves through Scorpio and into Sagittarius. Every time it goes through Scorpio – once a year – it catches you by surprise. The innocent enthusiasm that you generally reside in, is inexorably thrown off balance by the deeper themes of transformation. Go with it. VIRGO (Aug 23 – Sept 22)

Mercury spends the next month looking like it’s going backwards in the sky. It’s also in Scorpio. He - and you – are taken on an introspective journey, pondering the deeper themes that life invariably gifts us. It’s ok to ask about significance – and healing. Now is the time. LIBRA (Sept 23 – Oct 23)

As the Sun takes up its position in Scorpio, taking Mercury with it, so you retire from the foreground and enjoy a little solitude. In that alone space, it’s time to get back to basics and re-prioritise the interests that are most central to your life. Go for the deepest happiness.SCORPIO (Oct 24 – Nov 21)

The Sun, Mercury, Saturn and soon, Venus, are all in Scorpio. That’s a lot of planetary traffic. Venus of course is love, Mercury is about perception and communication, Saturn is about finding ancient wisdom – and the Sun is the you that is trying to pull it all together. Live it. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Before the Sun comes shining through your window later in November, life takes you through the archetypal journey into the deeps, represented by Scorpio. Scorpio is all about finding gold, by facing the truth of our demons. It is about transformation. Rejuvenate with honesty.CAPRICORN (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Just when you think the strength you need is never going to come, so it comes marching through your door, in the form of Mars. Mars is the warrior God in Greek Mythology. He is more about will than war. When we make good use of our energy there is no war. Be creative.AQUARIUS (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

As Uranus continues going retrograde, so you are held by life in such a position that you get to contemplate your impulses. Life isn’t exactly giving you free reign to run with them. With self-knowledge and awareness, you will find the most creative outlet for your energy.PISCES (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

In the course of the next couple of weeks, Neptune and Chiron both start going forwards again. As they do, so you get the feeling you are coming out of a vortex of endless navel contemplation and getting back into the passionate, soulful, creative adventure you crave.

Legal TalkBuYing or Setting up a SmaLL BuSineSS

By Suzanne RobertsPractice Director, Informed Conveyancing

LawyersWe’ve all heard how many small businesses fail soon after commence-

ment. To give you the best chance of success it’s important to take profes-sional advice from your accountant and solicitor before you start. What business structure best suits you? Your choice might be as a sole propri-etor, or in a partnership, or as a company or under a trust. Your accountant and solicitor can advise you according to your personal circumstances.

If you are buying an existing business you will usually deal with the vendor’s agent. Take the contract the agent gives you to your solicitor before you sign anything. Your solicitor will check what you are actually getting for the purchase price and will advise you how much the stamp duty will be. The contract should cover:

• your right to the existing business name, domain name and possibly website

• the value of stock, fixtures and fittings included in the sale• any representations or warranties the vendor makes about sales

performance• goodwill• a restraint preventing the vendor from competing with you• your access to the business books and records • transfer of licences and permits for the business• transfer of the lease for the business premises.If the business you are buying involves a franchise, you are buying

into an existing business chain with special rules as to how it is run. As with buying any other business, it’s vital to have your solicitor check all the franchise documents to ensure you understand precisely what you are getting and what your rights and obligations are.

If you intend to set up a business from scratch you will start off with

negotiating a lease of your business premises. The location of your prem-ises and the rent you pay will affect your business performance so it’s important to have your solicitor go over the lease with you before you sign it. You should also consider the types of insurance and amount of cover necessary to protect your business.

Finally, you may need guidance on the several aspects of the law that could apply to your business. Your solicitor can advise you on such matters as employer/employee relations, debt recovery, intellectual prop-erty rights including copyright and trade marks, and consumer protec-tion and trade practices legislation. Initial professional fees for legal and accounting advice before you commence your business will be money well spent.

Life Getting You Down?

habits that are controlling your life!

I provide an effective way to bring back the happiness.

It never ceases to amaze me that in South-east Queensland, one can travel several hours from the coast and see completely different bird species. Obviously, this is linked to a change in habitat type; however, it also shows how diverse the region is in regards to the environment.

One bird, which fits into this criteria, is the Red Wattle-bird. This bird is usually heard before it is seen. The Red Wattlebird is best recognised by its large size, red-neck wattles and bright yellow underside. As mentioned above, the call of the Red Wattlebird is very distinctive and sounds like a harsh racking cough.

In Australia, there are four species of Wattlebird. A similar species in South-east Queensland to the Red Wattlebird is the Little Wattlebird. The two bird species are easy to tell apart with the Little Wattlebird being smaller in size to the Red Wattlebird and lacking the red neck wattles. The distribution of the Red Wattlebird extends from South-east Queensland through New South Wales, Victoria and South Australia to Western Australia. In South-east Queensland, I have come across good numbers of this bird at Main Range National Park and Girraween National Park. Their preferred habitat in these locations is eucalypt forests. However, the birds will utilise other habitat types such as heaths, creek lines, orchards, parks and backyards. In the right habitat, the Red Wattlebird can be a common bird.

The Red Wattlebird is an interesting bird to observe in the field. Usually, they can be seen singly or in pairs. The birds will stay in a general vicinity and when breeding become very localised. Their best trick is hanging upside down to investigate foliage for a potential meal such as insects. If one is quiet, the birds can be easily approached. Red Wattlebirds also utilise blossoms as a food source. The birds will breed from July to November. For anyone wishing to see this unique bird, it is usually not too hard to find.

To see the birds, I would recommend visiting the day use areas of the above-mentioned National Parks and listening for the distinctive call. Once the birds have been located by their call, they are not hard to pinpoint. I would also suggest looking for the movement of birds in the outer foliage of eucalypt trees in the vicinity of where their calls are heard.

Overall, the Red Wattlebird is a unique Australian bird species that will give an observer much pleasure and plenty of photo opportunities!

Canungra Bowls ClubBy Ray Hickson

The Canungra Bowls Club Wall Plaque Competition has now finished for 2012.

Twelve clubs from around the Gold Coast took part, providing three teams of triples to play against Canungra Bowls Club. Teams taking part were: Woongoolba, Benowa, Tamborine Mountain, McKen-zie Park, Rathdowney, Mermaid Beach, Beenleigh, Beaudesert, Helensvale,Mudgeeraba, Robina, and Musgrave Hill.

Congratulations go to Robina Bowls Club who were the overall winners with + 32 and to Helensvale Bowls Club who had the highest Rink Margin with + 22.

Tamborine Mens Pennant Team Reaches Grand FinalBy Lance Cordingley

Tamborine Mountain Men’s Pennant Team has again enjoyed a very successful year, reach-ing the grand final played against Tweed Heads at Robina Bowls Club on Sunday 7th October 2012.

This is the third time in four years that Tamborine Mountain has made the finals, and the second time in that period it has made the grand final.

Unfortunately, whilst in 2009 the Tamborine team came away with the Pennant, it had to settle for the Runners-up flag this year, losing to Tweed Heads by eight shots over the three rinks.

At the presentation of the Runners-up flag, President Lance Cordingley congratulated Tweed Heads on their win, and thanked Robina Bowls Club for making its facilities available for the finals, and the District organisers for their hard work in running the competition.

He went on to say how proud he was of the Tamborine Mountain bowlers, coming from such a small Club to have such a remarkable record of success in the Gold Coast competition.

Tamborine Mountain Bowls Club is thought by many to be one of the best performed Bowls Clubs per capita, and enters a number of compe-titions each year in which it usually performs very well, punching well above its weight.

The Club has some very exciting events pending for the enjoyment of bowlers and social members of the Club, as well as to introduce other members of our community to the Club.

Prospective members are invited to contact the Club on 5545 1308 or to drop in, you will be most welcome.

Various competitions are entered, at several skill levels, and social games are organised each week.

There is definitely something for everyone in the sport of bowls, and the friendly club looks forward to greeting you.

with Shirley at Moriarty Park Hall

A couple were going out for the evening. They’d got ready, all dolled up, cat put out, etc.

The taxi arrives and as the couple go out the cat shoots back in. They don’t want the cat shut in the house, so the wife goes out to the taxi while the husband goes upstairs to chase the cat out.

The wife, not wanting it known that the house will be empty, explains to the taxi driver, “He’s just going upstairs to say goodbye to my mother.”

A few minutes later, the husband gets into the cab: “Sorry I took so long,” he says, “stupid old thing was hiding under the bed and I had to poke her with a coat hanger to get her to come out!”

Canungra RSL Fishing Club Results

By Jennifer Dougherty

Swimming Clubs Sign-On NightCanungra Social Swim Club and the

Canungra Masters Swimming Club hosted a combined sign-on night on Thursday 11th Oct 2012 at the Canungra Pool.

It was a fun night with a floating jumping castle in the pool and a free sausage sizzle.

Club President, Alanna Phillps, said the Canungra Social Swim Club (for children up to 18 years) signed up 40 members on the night.

Training for the Social Swim Club is on Thursdays from 6pm - 7.30pm with squad training also available on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 6am - 7.30am and from 3.30pm - 4.15pm for juniors and 4.30pm - 5.30pm for seniors.

The Canungra Masters Swimming Club is a new Club for adults of all swimming abilities.

“We have about 12 Masters who have signed up,” said Alanna, “The emphasis is on fun, fitness and friendship. We will have a social event every month as well as the regular swimming times.”

Masters swimming times are Wednes-days from 6pm - 7.30pm and Sundays from 8.30am - 10.30am. There is no commitment to attend particular sessions, with Club members welcome to attend when they are able.

Members of the Masters Swimming Club can obtain training programs from the Canungra Pool office or can train at their own pace.

Alanna has big plans for the future of the swimming clubs. Canungra will hold it’s first ever Swim Meet on 23rd February 2013.

“We want to make the pool the focal point for sport during summer,” she said, “We also have plans to build a club house later on.”

For more information about the Canungra Social Swim Club and the Canungra Masters Swimming Club contact Alanna Phillips on 0409 752 997.
