WHAT A

HIT!

Anson Street School held their annual swimming carnival last week and OC Life was fortunate enough to be there to capture some of the day’s activities. The day brought lots of excitement and plenty of smiles and when it came time to picking a shot for the cover, the team couldn’t go past this image! This is Mr Moor with student Joseph preparing for his next race, what a couple of legends! You can see more shots for the carnival inside. Enjoy.

WELCOME T H I S new supplement and part of your community magazine. As usual, it’ll be done a bit differently and with a bit of OCL love. This is no small thing for the OCL team; we will, in the new year, be looking to employ another three people as a result, and I’m bloody proud of that too! Locals looking after locals—doesn’t get any better than that!

Looney Lotto winner last week was Mary Shiels. The last game for 2016 appears in this issue so good luck everyone! Locals supporting locals. I love the theme and it’s something I try to do as much as possible. I also know many other local businesses that also try to follow this mantra; after all, if we’re not taking care of each other who will? With this in mind I decided to approach our local real estate agents about advertising in, and being a part of, OC Life. I figured their money, your money, should stay in Orange as much as possible and I’m very proud to say that many seemed to agree with me! It’s therefore and not without some pride that in our first edition for 2017—due out January 19th—we will carry an all-local Real Estate guide as a

Hams! Quite often at OCL we come up with new or unique ways to give things away. Most of the time these things involve us getting our readers involved and this happens with varying degrees of success BUT THE HAMS HAVE GONE NUTS! Our ‘three little Christmas words’ promotion has blown us away in terms of reader response and just shows that you never know what people will respond to. Still ten to give away… get amongst it! I’ve had a not unexpected response to my personal decision to stop printing any negative thumbs about the state of our roads. To make it interesting, this

week I was accused of ‘censoring the people’. (See the thumbs) This is not the case at all, I simply don’t have the patience for those particular comments anymore. There are far better alternative routes to take than the thumbs section and it’s there where I would hope you take your voice. Our newly elected local member is particularly passionate about the roads and we have a federal member representing our region as well. Those two would be my first point of call for the road condition. As I said, our Council are trying but the problem isn’t going to be fixed overnight. Still struggling for a Christmas gift? This Sunday from 9 till 2 the old netball courts at Moulder Park will again play host to the Rotary Christmas Markets. It’s a new venue but gets my thumbs up; it’s a great spot to navigate around and there’s parking aplenty. If you’ve got nothing on, head down and check them out. Santa is not far away… which list are you on? Hugs

2016 CENTRAL WEST DISABILITY EXPO AND INTERNATIONAL DAY OF PEOPLE WITH DISABILITY

“A COMMUNITY INCLUSIVE EVENT HIGHLIGHTING SERVICES AND SUPPORT FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITY”

committee of dedicated representatives from local disability-related services came together on December 7th to stage this year’s Central West Disability Expo in Orange. In keeping with the theme, the event was interactive, social and all-inclusive for people with disability and their carers to enjoy a great social day out. It highlighted a range of services (from both non-government and government providers), and opportunities that are available in the Central West. Over 50 exhibitors showcasing products and services attended the expo at Orange’s PCYC, with information and resources including: education, training, Australian disability enterprises, disability employment, post school programs, respite, accommodation, disability & mental health support, sport & recreation, adaptive technology and hands-on trials of the latest equipment and mobility transport. This year, the Expo ran in

conjunction with Orange’s International Day of People with Disability celebrations. There were games, activities and information for all ages, with committee representatives from TAFE Western organising all-inclusive sports and recreational activities throughout the day, with a ‘follow the yellow brick road’ theme. Local schools and day programs entered the “Build a Scarecrow” competition on the day. Once again, it was excellent opportunity to gain access to information on services available to not only the local community but to families and carers of people with disability throughout our region. This year’s event was proudly organised by the Central West Disability Expo Committee: Wangarang Industries, Orange City Council, Ability Links, Department of Education, TAFE NSW Western Institute and supported by The National Disability Coordination Officer Program.

PEOPLE COMING TO O-TOWN

COMMENT

BIRTHDAY MEMORIES

ANTHON Y MINICH IELLO

nthony ‘Mini’ Minichiello is bringing his ‘Minifit’ camp to Orange on the 20th of January. Former OCL favourite Chris Bennetts does quite a bit of work with Mini and the Roosters and from there, the idea of bringing Minifit to Orange was born! “I’ve been retired now for just over two years but I continue to work at the Roosters in an ambassador role as well as the NRL as one of their community ambassadors. I also do some Fox Sports commentary. I’m pretty busy! “For the last couple of years of my playing career, I had Minifit on the side but since retirement, I really want to build it into something bigger. Health and fitness is my passion as well as growing the game of rugby league. I have a connection with Chris Benno and now Stedo – who explained what a tragic Roosters fan he is - so I thought ‘let’s get Minifit out to Orange.’ “Orange is a sporting town and I can’t wait to come out and enjoy the day with the kids. “The more the merrier!” For more information, keep an eye on OC Life as well as our Facebook page or visit www.minifit.com.au

his past week in the OC Life office, our very own Melise Coleman celebrated her 22nd birthday. Deep sigh…oh to be 22 again. This led to a round table discussion from the rest of us on just what we were up to when we were 22. Our hopes, our dreams, our wishes… Stedo: It was so long ago I’ve practically forgotten. I know I still had hair; heaps of it too! It was 1994, there were no manbuns, men’s belts actually held up their pants and duck-face selfies didn’t exist. I’d not long returned from backpacking overseas. I was working at either Email or Nightmoves or both. The Royal was my ‘local’ and was awesome, The Standard still had a beer garden and a great reputation and the Oxo and Parkview were vastly different venues. Footy (or cricket), work, beers, repeat. I never had any money but never went without, no car, no bills, and very few responsibilities. Life was much simpler, or at least seemed so. I had no ideas on what I wanted to do with my life— still don’t really—but was very happy with my circle of friends and all that that offered. At 22, life was pretty bloody great! Annabel: At 22 I was still a princess and was still living at home with my parents. Life consisted of shopping, more shopping and yet could still afford to go out partying with my friends. I was working in a job I was good at but under-appreciated. I had no children to slowly suck the life out of me (I really love you both, promise) and was in the early stages of a blossoming relationship with my now

WORDS BY JAMIE STEDMAN

husband and sometimes best friend! As with Stedo, life was easy, much simpler. Clearly though, as I’m so much younger, I can still remember! Ben: It was 1998, I had just entered University in Canberra to study Graphic Design—four years I’ll never get back but geez they were fun! At the time, I distinctly remember envisioning that I’d one day be working in a tight little group of caring people, designing and enjoying all that a feel-good community magazine could offer. I also envisioned that I’d be working for a balding but kind-hearted boss who LOVED that feeling of looking after his staff, regardless of their perceived ‘downfalls’; he’d be understanding and flexible, not to mention funny and good looking. OC Life has fulfilled all my hopes and dreams. Ed’s note: Still no Ben. You’ll still be working whilst everyone else is on holidays. Leanne: I had a two-yearold! I was employed at Alpine Stores and life was tough. I was broke and doing it hard. I am thankful however, that I had a strong support network and that my friends and family kept me on-track. As tough as life was, I wouldn’t change a thing! I have two kids now, and am enjoying working with a group of people whom I consider to be ‘family’. 22 for me may not have been everyone’s idea of fun but it made me who I am right now and for that, I am thankful. Lindsey: I am 22. Life is great! Although, I could use some nap time at work occasionally! Happiest of birthdays Melise, here’s hoping all your dreams are slowly being realised. What were you doing when you were 22?

ORANGE’S 90 KIDS WITH AUTISM NEED SUPPORT

WHAT IS AUTISM? Autism is a lifelong developmental condition that affects, among other things, the way an individual relates to his or her environment and their interaction with other people. Autism Spectrum Australia (Aspect) states the condition affects one in 100 children and can be identified through difficulties in social and communication skills as well as restricted or repetitive patterns of behaviour. These facts can be found at https://www.autismspectrum.org. au/content/indicators-asd-young-children-0. Autism Asperger’s Advocacy Australia published a media release in 2014 that found that at least one in 63 Australian school children have a formal Autism diagnosis. This statistic was sourced from http://www.a4.org.au/ prevalence2015 . Approximately 9,000 children under 15 years live in Orange, between 90 and 150 of them have Autism.

utism figures are on the rise. In 2012 there was a 79% increase of people diagnosed with the Autism since 2009 and it is becoming even more common. “With growing numbers of children being affected by Autism, community support is vital to help them lead happy and connected lives,” said Rebecca Keysers, Managing

DECEMBER 15–21, 2016

Director Autism Link. “Without the correct support services and resources, the quality of life for kids with Autism may be detrimentally affected. They may feel as though they don’t belong and find it difficult to form friendships.” Families with Autistic children can find it challenging to find support

for their kids and may feel isolated within their own communities. “When my son Kaiser was diagnosed with Autism, I had no idea of what therapies or interventions to look for,” said Rebecca. “Parents need help to access services, support groups, information and resources that make a difference to their

children’s lives. This is where Autism Link can really help families.” Autism Link provides families with direct access to services, making a distressing time less traumatic. With more than 160 service providers on board and more joining every day, families can overcome challenges and support their children’s needs with greater ease.

At Autism Link we believe that children with Autism should get all the support they need to live happy, connected lives. Starting at the kitchen table in Rebecca Keysers’s home in Orange, regional NSW, Autism Link is fast becoming a national start up success story and the most comprehensive directory of service providers and resources for Australians with Autism. Autism Link aims to offer service providers to families in need in every town in Australia. Services that are qualified to support children and adults with Autism are warmly encouraged to join Autism Link at www.autismlink.com.au Autism Link is available for free to parents, carers and Autism professionals at www. autismlink.com.au and for download as a helpful app for phones and tablets on Apple iTunes and Google Play.

Carols by Candlelight proving to be ever popular with families Orange’s Carols by Candlelight once again proved very popular with hundreds turning out to enjoy and join in the singing. Held as always in the Northcourt, last Saturday’s Carols featured performances from several groups including the City of Orange Brass Band, Orange Symphony Orchestra, Orange Regional Conservatorium Chamber Choir and others. The weather certainly played its part, putting on a wonderful warm evening and Orange Council kindly provided the children with some entertainment in the form of a merry-go-round.

ASHCROFT’S

Gourmet selections at Ashcroft’s Supa IGA

WORTH CONSIDERING If you’re like me, and my Mrs CLAUSE, you often want to bolster your Christmas gifts with so called stocking stuffers. If that’s you, here’s a suggestion worth considering. At Ashcroft’s Supa IGA stores, they have sections where they sell a whole range of gourmet type items. These items are often produced by small specialist operators and for that reason don’t get the publicity that bigger brands get. They are also different to the more mass produced items for one reason or another and often the biggest difference is the quality. I’m sure you get the idea and I’d encourage you to have a browse through the items one day when you’re in IGA. For now however, I just want to let you know that if a rather special packet of biscuits, a unique block of chocolate, a special relish or jam or just a variety of organic teas sounds like a novel stocking stuffer or other gift, a visit to Ashcroft’s Gourmet section is recommended.

GIFT IDEA

For a young person who’s about to learn to drive, what about a few lessons from Ray?

Intuition: The Forgotten 6th Sense? Some things we just know—if only we believed it.

have a friend who recently sent me a couple of messages from a longlost love. Let me assure you, it was not to invade the privacy of the sender, rather a last straw after she tried to talk to the party involved but still for the life of her couldn’t understand what happened. Like many of us, my friend suffers from a terrible affliction of trying to make sense of things which can never make sense. At least, not in any great detail. I believe the reason we do this is because we’ve lost touch with our intuition. Rather than just know what we know, we live in a constant state of trying to rationalise and contextualise everything. It’s not surprising, really. We’ve been taught from a very young age that there is no such thing as intuition – a belief which is strengthened throughout adulthood. We aren’t taught this explicitly, but it’s a life lesson we take from experiences like being told not to talk to strangers, whilst at the same time being told not to be rude to people, and to go sit on Santa’s knee. As adults, we often allow ourselves to be manipulated to some extent when we have big insights from small pieces of information. People are quick to tell us we’re “overreacting” or “looking too much into things”. We decide these people are probably right, and therefore act against our own gut instinct in an attempt to limit the condescension. I recently read a book called Perfection, a memoir by a woman named Julie Metz whose husband led a double life. She had no idea who he was, until he died from a heart attack and she came across his email account after his death. As the story goes on, it becomes apparent she did have small insights into this man, but perhaps chose not to see them. Naturally,

it still came as a terrible shock. Ignoring intuition is not a gender issue —it’s a human issue. We’ve forgotten our 6th sense! Our intuition doesn’t disappear, but we’ve become so accustomed to ignoring it that we only hear its whispers rather than its roars. And it’s very easy to ignore a whisper. When it came to my friend she already knew the answers. Her long-lost love reappeared unexpectedly when he was going through a difficult time in his life, and perhaps without thinking, was using her as a Band-Aid fix. They were in love (or lust) many years ago, and he popped back into the picture because it made him feel good that he could still rouse her interest all these years later. It was all about ego. The ego is simply the part of us which believes itself separate from others and constantly strives for a worthy identity. Being a self-made construct which doesn’t really exist, it requires constant propping up through externalities. My good friend was this man’s temporary life-prop—and if she looked at the situation with eyes wide open, she knew it. There was nothing to be analysed. The broad inner knowing is the truth – and you can’t delve any deeper because the ego will drive people to say whatever they need to, often contradicting themselves, to get their next boost. Perhaps we need to stop trying to figure things out and start paying attention to what we already know?

Pat Frecklington of RDA added, “On behalf of RDA, we would like to thank IGA for their tremendous support, they have always helped us and

supported us.” RSPCA will use the money for Desexing vouchers, along with repairs to the shelter that need to be done. Regional Manager Community and Client Programs, Housing Plus, Penny Dordoy added, “IGA are always incredibly generous towards housing homelessness and support service and

the clients they serve. Their ongoing support means so much to those who are experiencing homelessness, particularly at this time of year when housing stress is so crucial and the issues people face are increased. So, to receive this, is exceptional. The money will go towards our refuge and our transitional properties.” MC

CareWest Centre Open for Business!

CareWest CEO Tim Curran, President George Blackwell, Andrew Gee, Federal Minister for Calare unveiling the plaque.

ANDREW GEE, FEDERAL MINISTER FOR CALARE, TOGETHER WITH CAREWEST CEO TIM CURRAN AND PRESIDENT GEORGE BLACKWELL, OFFICIALLY OPENED THE MUCH ANTICIPATED CAREWEST COMMUNITY CONNECTION CENTRE (4C) EARLIER THIS WEEK.

he centre will provide people with a disability, older people, youth and those seeking social inclusion with a modern, environmentally sustainable, regional hub for connecting to community including access to recreational, health and well-being facilities. CEO Tim Curran said CareWest is passionately committed to engaging and empowering local communities to thrive into the future, and extended heartfelt thanks to both

the Federal and State Governments for sharing the vision and supporting the 4C project. “The viability of rural and remote Australia lies in keeping services local, and in connecting local communities, families and organisations to build and strengthen relationships,” said Mr Curran. “We were really delighted the Federal and State Governments, along with Newcastle Permanent and a range of small local businesses,

shared our vision for the centre and provided funding to enable this inclusive community space to be developed.” “Originally built on funds raised by the community, it is gratifying to open the space back up for the good of all, particularly to those who are society’s most vulnerable and at risk of becoming socially isolated.” The $6 million project took three years to complete and was made possible with funding

from the Federal Department of Infrastructure and Regional Development $747,000; NSW Offic e of Liquor and Gaming (Clubs Grant) $500,000; ADHC $500,000; NSW Department of Education $410,000; Federal Department of Social Services $343,000; Newcastle Permanent $66,000; CareWest’s own investment of $3.74 million as well as numerous in-kind donations from local businesses and individuals. Federal Minister for Calare, Andrew Gee added, “What a wonderful day, today marks the end of a long journey. The team came to me with the dream and no one really knew how it was going to turn out”, he laughed. “It really does showcase

the best in our communities.” The centre includes an outdoor sensory therapy garden, two indoor sensory spaces, a café which is open to the public, a child and youth play centre with climbing wall and splash park, a personal care salon, two kitchens, a theatre, three meeting spaces, outdoor art workshop space, three clinical spaces and two assistive technology display centres. Vision Australia will shortly be opening offices in the centre. CareWest is a community-centred organisation that is always thinking of new ways to support local communities. With almost 700 staff CareWest has offices in 25 towns across rural and regional NSW and is one of the largest regionally-based community services in NSW. Despite its growth, CareWest remains focused on ensuring programs and services are locally provided and tailored to the needs of individuals and local communities.

ORANGE ‘BLOOD BLITZ’ TO CURB CHRISTMAS HOLIDAY SHORTAGE

ORANGE STILL NEEDS MORE THAN 150 VOLUNTEERS TO DONATE BLOOD BEFORE CHRISTMAS AND NEW YEAR IN ORDER TO PREVENT A SHORTAGE OF BLOOD PRODUCTS VITAL TO THE TREATMENT OF CANCER AND TRAUMA PATIENTS.

range donors are among the millions of busy Australians taking time for Christmas shopping and holidays, leading to a worrying drop in donor numbers this December. Yet the need for blood never stops, with one product vital to cancer treatment - platelets - having a shelf-

life of just a few days, meaning cancer patients need a constant supply throughout the festive season. Spokesperson Ronny Maroun said the organisation was today launching its national Christmas ‘Blood Blitz’ to help fill the appointments at Orange Blood Donor Centre still needed between now and January 2.

“Thousands of Australian patients will need blood this Christmas and New Year just to have the hope of spending those moments with friends and family,” he said. “Cancer patients are the biggest users of donated blood and rely on platelets to make it through chemotherapy.

“The problem is platelets cannot be stock-piled, so we need a constant, fresh supply as anything collected by Christmas Day will have expired or run-out early next week.” Mr Maroun said a blood donation was a gift that money couldn’t buy because it allowed people to spend time with those they love most.

“With Australians set to spend $48.1 billion* leading up to Christmas, the greatest gift of all will cost you just an hour of your time and could help to save or improve three lives. Make an appointment to give at Orange Donor Centre by calling 13 14 95 or visiting www.donateblood. com.au

A gold coin donation could get you a spectacular wash out spray on colour, Price Attack kindly offered their time and expertise for the dye and Lareina O’Neill and Jasmin Boys were on hand to spice up the communities hair colour. We captured Orange City Centre's Marketing Manager, Jessica Cunningham, as she received a spray colour from Price Attack Retail Manager, Jasmin Boys. Jasmin said, “We were all for helping out!

much needed funds for Anson Street School. “Usually Anson Street School have a project they put the money towards, I really wanted to have one last big effort seeing as we aren’t here next year, just to be able to give them a reasonable amount of money. "I’d like to thank the staff from Myer and of course Grace Brothers for their support and efforts in raising funds for the school in the previous 33 years we have been involved.” Such a great sport - during the hair colour Phillip looked at his transformation in the mirror and said, “It is bright isn’t it.” Before the dye, Phillip ensured me they had already raised $700 for the cause - a fantastic effort in itself! Check out that purple! He couldn’t seem to wipe the smile off his face, well done to Phillip and the team at Myer, true community spirit!

Saying Thanks The volunteers at Orange Health Service celebrated the end of year with a Christmas get together last week. We caught up with three of the more than 40 volunteers from the Blue Ladies, Dot Richards, Dorothy Brown and Margaret Padroth as they were among the 350 volunteers who were thanked by Orange Health Service for their contribution. The Blue ladies come to the health service each week and look after patient flowers, assist with tv cards, do patient washing, create cannula packs, take magazines around, and assist in maternity. Dot has been volunteering for five years, Margaret for three years and Dorothy for an incredible twenty one years! When we asked Dorothy why she keeps coming back each year she said, “The people that I work with and the things that I can do to help the patients. I just enjoy helping, it makes you feel

as if you are doing something good, as I tell my children it keeps me off the streets,” she laughed. Health Service Administration Manager Leeane Wright added, “For me personally, they are fantastic, we have a great relationship with the kiosk ladies, they are so hard working and work long hours, all our volunteers do such a fantastic job. Without them we wouldn’t have what we have today, as all of the funds come back to the hospital—they are very important in my life.” Volunteer groups at the hospital include: Blue Ladies and Men; the Orange Health Council; the Hospital Auxiliary; Wayfinders; Grandparents Group; Spiritual Care; VIP Group; Cardio Pulmonary volunteers; Friends Assisting the Community; Cancer Service Volunteers and Premi Babes. OCL says a hearty “thank you” to each of them.

FUNTASTIC EVENT HUGELY POPULAR Sydney band ‘The Mad Cow’ headlined the annual fundraising evening for Orange and District Early Education Programme (ODEEP). Previously, the organising committee was responsible for the JellyBean Balls that ran consecutively until May 2014 and would attract an average of 350 attendees. Those Balls contributed over $500,000 in funds raised for the benefit of ODEEP. The past four years has seen the very popular Harley Davidson raffles that have raised over $80,000. The FunTastic Christmas Party picks up where the JellyBean Balls left off with all proceeds of the night going directly to ODEEP. More photos can be found on our Facebook page.

THE WORD OF ORANGE

The 627 Word Bookworm Getting kids to read is one of the most important priorities we should have. But what counts?

y the time you have finished this column, you will have read 627 words (yep, I did a word count and then came back and filled in the number). Does that really count as ‘reading’? I try and include a few big/ important words to embellish the tales told here, but if the OC Life mag is the only reading you partake of every week, can you tick the box that says you are an avid reader? The jury is out. I would not be classified as a voracious (big word) reader. I probably knock my way through half a dozen to ten novels a year, but there’s no War and Peace amongst them, and most would come under the action/adventure genre, which would be frowned upon by reading purists. The best book I read in my teens was ‘The Catcher in the Rye’, and I was so excited to find it on my daughters reading list for school last year. I read it again from cover to cover, smiling my way through every page, only to be most disappointed when she announced “that sucked, I hated it”. Can’t win ‘em all, I guess. When I was younger, reading the sports pages and Column 8 was my staple, but many experts say that any reading is better than no reading. I’m not sure that my staple of ingesting the Rugby League Week from cover to cover in my teenage years would have ticked the box for the experts, though. As I got older, I devoured every diary published by Steve Waugh, and then most of the books written by Peter FitzSimons, with his weekend news columns being amongst the highlight of my reading week. I have just enjoyed the latest

offering by my fave novelist, Australian writer Matthew Reilly. I smashed it out in about 4 days, very unlike my usual reading pace. There’s always lots of explosions, car chases, narrow escapes and Batman-like last minute plot twists—right up my alley. Now I’ll have to wait at least another year for his next offering. During my university days, a minimalist reading approach was always my method, I’d cut corners and scan lightly if I could. If only I’d realised a deeper immersion and analysis of the texts would have made my life so much easier. More recently, with some extra professional development I have undertaken, this kind of reading has become so much more enjoyable—I have loved broadening my mind with something a little deeper than ‘what I did on my cricket tour’ or turning the page to find the hero of the novel has (yet again) found a way to avoid a perilous end. Research and evidence irrefutably show that reading to your kids gives them a head start when it comes to literacy and success in academics—with the go-to tomes from days gone by under our roof including the Ruby the Red Fairy series, Dear Zoo and Captain Underpants. Our number one was undoubtedly The Very Hungry Caterpillar, with the page-turning moment of caterpillar-tobutterfly providing thrilling excitement and reward for both reader and readee. If authors could be made into Saints, I’m sure J.K. Rowling of Harry Potter fame would get the nod for her efforts in improving child literacy levels across the world. Over the Christmas break, I’m making a commitment to read something a little deeper than sports biographies and newspaper columns (not that there’s anything wrong with them). There are about 77000 words in the first Harry Potter novel—meaning you’d have to read this column 122 times for the same ‘intellectual’ experience. I know which option I’d choose …

SALVATION ARMY Dear Sir or Madam, Christmas is a busy time for The Salvation Army. Whilst the true meaning of the season is of peace, joy and hope, it’s a fact that hundreds of thousands of Australians find Christmas stressful and a financial nightmare. The Salvation Army gives hope to those who need it most at Christmas by distributing thousands of food vouchers and hampers to people in need and providing gifts and toys to families in crisis. I’d like to urge readers to stop for a moment and ask, ‘Can I help someone who is struggling?’ We believe that noone should have to go it alone at Christmas time and I truly believe that we are a nation that stands by those in need. Specifically, I write to ask readers if they could join with us at The Salvation Army to

give hope to those who need it most this Christmas. There are easy actions you can take that will genuinely make a world of difference. You can donate to the Salvos by calling 13 SALVOS (13 72 58). Funds are desperately needed. You can also donate in person at any Westpac branch. Donations of new, quality gifts or non-perishable food items can be made at most Salvation

Army centres. It’s best to call 13 SALVOS to find out how you can assist us in your local area, or check out salvos.org.au to find out how you can help. On behalf of The Salvation Army I wish all readers a Christmas filled with joy, peace, and above all else, HOPE. Yours sincerely, Leigh Cleave Communications & Fundraising Director

LOCAL PEOPLE DOING GREAT THINGS

CHRISTMAS IN ORANGE

Last week, OC Life caught up with locals, Emma Sawyers and Tash Hall after they had returned from Marrickville in Sydney where they both participated in the ‘Step Up’ Pole Competition Amateur division for 2016. The second competition for both girls, this time they had to send in a video, and if their video was picked, they then went on to perform in front of the crowd. Performers were permitted to use any props, sets, costuming, additional performers and sound effects as they wanted, with the main goal simply to make it fun! Owner of Spinnin Pole Studio in Orange, Emma Sawyers delivered a Cat Woman themed performance - a jewellery shop robbing scene to be exact – which saw her take out first place! “I didn’t believe it and I still don’t believe it,” Emma said. For those unaware of the Pole world, months of hard work, determination and preparation go towards a 3 to 4-minute performance where the girls give everything they have got! Instructor at Spinnin Pole in Orange, Tash Hall, has been involved with Pole for three years now, and on the night, delivered a performance dedicated to Moulin Rouge - specifically the Tango to Roxanne. “It was good to see the skill level nationally and talent from other competitors, I had fun and I am already looking for the next comp to enter in.” The girls had an army of Orange ‘Spinnin Polers’ who were there in support and ensured they got the loudest cheers. Congratulations to you both! MC

TAFE STAFF CELEBRATE RAP’S SUCCESS

HUNDREDS OF TAFE WESTERN STAFF FROM ACROSS WESTERN NSW, INCLUDING ORANGE, CAME TOGETHER RECENTLY TO CELEBRATE THE SUCCESS OF THE ORGANISATION’S RECONCILIATION ACTION PLAN (RAP).

DECEMBER 15–21, 2016

n June 1 this year, TAFE Western created history by becoming the first TAFE NSW Institute to get a RAP approved by Reconciliation Australia. Staff gathered simultaneously at colleges across the state to celebrate the plan’s immediate success. “The RAP may be less than six months old, but has already had a signifi cantly positive impact on our staff , students and our local communities,” Acting Institute Director Adam Bennett said. “We’ve made steady progress both internally and externally in terms of reconciliation. We’re working closer with Aboriginal communities, delivering training

that’s suited to Aboriginal learners and making a positive change in our own employment programs.” As part of the plan, TAFE Western also released a ‘RAP’ Video, a fun take on an important message, featuring members of the organisation’s RAP Working Party. “The RAP video has gone viral and we’ve fielded lots of congratulatory messages, not only from staff within TAFE Institutes, but from other people not associated with TAFE as well,” TAFE Western Director of Aboriginal Education and Equity Provision Rod Towney said. “It was great to see so many staff get involved in today’s barbecue and really get behind the spirit of reconciliation.”

The five key objectives identified in the TAFE Western RAP are to improve: • Access to education and training for Aboriginal peoples; • Literacy and numeracy of our Aboriginal students; • Education and employment outcomes of our Aboriginal students; • Completion of qualifications by our Aboriginal students; • The careers of our Aboriginal staff.

I appeared in roughly 20 films as a child actor. After being beaten up by a street gang, I turned to the Chinese martial art of kung fu. In 1959, my parents sent me back to the US to live with my sister. During my university years I met and married Linda Emery. In 1966 I landed an acting part in the TV series The Green Hornet. Unhappy with the number of roles available to me, I moved my family back to Hong Kong in 1971 and soon released the films Fists of Fury (1971) and The Chinese Connection (1972), both of which set box office records in Hong Kong. On July 20, 1973, just one month before the premiere of my fourth film Enter the Dragon, I died at the age of 32 from a brain edema.

The Elephant in the Room O

range Elephant is a new organisation founded by a proactive local committee from a wide range of community sectors, with a common resolve to promote mental health. The first annual Orange Elephant Ball is set to take place early next year. The vision of the Orange Elephant Ball is to provide funding for Batyr, an organisation which focuses on giving a voice to ‘the elephant in the room’

Not so

– the mental health of young people. With 1 in 4 suffering a mental health issue by the end of adolescence, Batyr delivers innovative peer-to-peer programs that engage, educate and empower. Batyr speakers share life experiences on issues such as depression, suicide, sexual assault, eating disorders, bullying and personal health. Through sharing their personal stories they seek to encourage young people to “look,

listen, talk and seek help”. The goal of Orange Elephant is to raise $40,000 for Batyr in 2017, and the Orange Elephant Ball is set to make that goal a reality. There are various sponsor packages for businesses and individuals who wish to get involved, please contact Aaron Almond on 0423 934 777, Tim Gray on 0439 720 073 or email Orange Elephant at orangeelephantball@gmail.com for further information.

Save the date for the Orange Elephant Ball! A black-tie event for 400 people including a three-course meal, beverages until 11.30pm, live entertainment, guest speaker from Batyr and silent auctions. Cost $160 per head with profits going to Batyr.

NINTENDO VIRTUAL BOY Nintendo thought thay were clever by pre-empting the virtual reality gaming boom. They created a device that could only display the colours red & black and required you to lean into it to activate the VR effect. In caused nausea, dizzy spells and a general feeling of sadness. When: 1995

BETAMAX Sony thought they were on to a big thing here... they were, kind of. Unfortunately this was released just prior to VHS. Betamax tapes only allowed for 30 mins of play/record time, VHS smashed it with 3 hours. Into the pit of infamy it sank.

NOKIA NGAGE I had one of these... I quite liked it. Only problem is I looked like a fool when holding it to my ear. I nick-named it ‘The Taco’. This was Nokia’s attempt at competing in the handhelp gaming market. It failed.

GOOGLE GLASS Remember back in 2013 and Google Glass was touted as the next great technological breakthrough? Well... it wasn’t. A hefty price tag and the fact that it looked plain old stupid meant that it wouldn’t sell. It was since been withdrawn from the market and Google are still working on it.

TV HAT Just look at it. Spruiked as “your own private theatre experience”, it was just a cap with what looks to be a feeding trough attached to the brim. Apparently this thing hurt your neck so much, the company offered to chuck in a “neck protector” for a mere $39.99 USD. Epic Fail.

GETTING TO KNOW

PHIL

DONATO I’M SURE THAT NOBODY WAS MORE SURPRISED THAN ME, TO SEE PHILIP DONATO WIN THE RECENT ORANGE BY ELECTION, AND FOR THE SHOOTERS, FISHERS AND FARMERS PARTY NO LESS? Who is he? I thought. I’ve never heard of him. Why did so many people vote for him? Good questions, and I’m sure I’m not alone in thinking that. Well, it’s been several weeks since the election and I for one, thought it was high time I met this guy, I also thought many of our readers would like to know a little more about our new State Member. I did that last Friday over a cup of coff ee, while Phil got stuck into a pretty yummy looking salad roll for lunch. We spent almost an hour together and I got to ask quite a lot of questions about him, his family and his old and new jobs. I found him to be a very pleasant and genuine type of guy and clearly looking forward to the challenge his new role presents. For convenience, let me do this in the form of a Q and A. I hope you enjoy what Phil had to say.

Born: I was born in Liverpool, Sydney. Where’d you grow up?: Mainly around the Chester Hill and Moorebank area of Sydney, helping in the fruit shop. Tell me about your schooling? I started in the public system, first at Chester Hill, then Sefton High then moved to a private school at Bankstown Grammar. And your family? Married to Nadia after meeting her at the Police Academy around 1995-1997. We were both in the Police Force. We have 5 boys, twins Daniel and James 19, Peter 17, Matthew 16 and Sean 12. What was your job before being elected? I was a Police Prosecutor since 2001. I did my training in the Police System which involved specialised training to be a Police Prosecutor.

Age: 44 Parents: Italian background, father Luciano. Mother Maria. My father’s father came over from Sicily after WW1 around 1921. The family have always been market gardeners and operated a fruit shop.

Do you have any hobbies, interests etc.? I’ve always been an active sportsman playing all forms of footy, I fish, hunt, play golf, go camping, love 4WD and cycling. I was pretty good in my early days but injury steadied me up.

Any notable achievements come to mind? You mean apart from winning the by-election? Nothing bigger than that! What are you passionate about? Family, fairness and justice. When did your interest in politics begin? I grew up in a family where my mother’s side was Labor and my father’s side was Liberal. I was around it and my job exposed me to many social issues. I often found myself frustrated with Sydney lawmakers who made decisions while clearly being out of touch with people. It was always there. How did you end up standing for the Shooters, Fishers and Farmers Party? I had voted for them for several years, I was member of the party, mainly because I am a shooter myself and the party stood up for law abiding firearms owners and fought against those who tried to paint all shooters as rednecks. The party made it known they were interested in running a candidate in Orange and following encouragement from friends in my hunting club, I put my hand up, expressed an interest and was nominated. The rest is history.

Is there someone, inside or outside of politics that you have admired? Peter Brock. I met him a few times and I did a bit of motor racing earlier in my life. I heard him speak on several occasions to various groups and he always impressed me as being a decent person. Let’s get political briefly. What do you consider the biggest issues facing Orange Council at the moment? In a nutshell, the condition of our roads and getting our sporting facilities to a standard where we can attract top games/ competitors etc. Both will help our local economy no end. What do you consider the biggest issues facing the NSW and Federal Governments? Again, I’d have to say roads. The state of many regional roads is a real concern. Recently, access to certain towns was cut off because of weather issues and that’s just not acceptable. They both also have to take decentralisation more seriously. More money needs to go to the regions, more effort is needed to get businesses to set up out here, and rolling out the NBN to provide faster, better and more affordable

accessibility. These things will, among other benefits, create much needed business opportunities and new jobs out in the regions. What things would you like to achieve during your first term? Sort the Orange Hospital carpark, hold the NSW Government to account on nearly $400 million worth of announcements made during the by-election, establish a palliative care unit at the Orange Health Service and see more businesses and jobs established in the Central West.  I enjoyed my time with Phil, and I’d have to say after this brief first meeting, it’s going to be interesting times ahead. One thing I think I can say with a measure of confidence, I don’t think he’s going to be a push over for anyone who takes him on. His passions about fairness and justice struck a chord with me and I’m looking forward to see how these qualities play out as he negotiates the rough and tumble world of politics. Orange City Life wishes him well in his endeavours.

SWIMMING WITH A SMILE

ANSON STREET SCHOOL ENJOYED THEIR ANNUAL SWIMMING CARNIVAL LAST WEEK AS THE END OF THE TERM AND INDEED THE SCHOOLING YEAR DRAWS NEAR. Whilst most of Orange felt the chilly temperature last Friday brought us, Anson Street school were busy swimming their hearts out inside Orange’s indoor aquatic centre. The way they were cheering one another on, enjoying the team and individual success was lovely to witness. To top off all this feel-good warmth, a number of Orange High Students were on hand, swimming next to each swimmer, supporting and encouraging them. Incredible! Backstroke seemed to be a winning stroke of the day and it brought many smiles to the kids’ faces. Top swimmers are to represent the school at regional titles next year. More shots can be found on our Facebook page.

Who chose your name?

It has become a fashion for parents to give babies unusual names. We wonder how to pronounce many of them, especially when quite normal names are spelt in a strange way. Maybe the babies won’t be pleased with their names later on, when they frequently have to pronounce or spell it! For Jesus, it wasn’t his parents, or his

family, who picked his name. God’s angel was the one who told Mary to call her son Jesus. At least that’s the way we say it, now – there was no letter J then, and it was a different language. When Mary called her boy, she probably yelled, “Yeshua, come here”. Why did God insist on that name? It means, “God saves”, and Mary’s son was to have that name because his whole life was an announcement that, through him, God was coming to our rescue. Jesus came for no other reason but to make it possible for mankind to be saved. Ten out of 10 people die. Jesus’ rescue mission was so we can be forgiven, and live eternally with God.

ORANGE & DISTRICT SOFTBALL GOING GREAT GUNS

AS THE SEASON DREW TO A CLOSE LAST WEEKEND, THE ORANGE DISTRICT SOFTBALL ASSOCIATION HOSTED THE BIG GUY IN RED! Santa’s much-anticipated visit is always a highlight for the players and their families and OC Life’s Cec Tilburg was on hand to capture plenty of the action As always, many more of Cec’s shots from the day can be found on our Facebook page.

LOCAL CYCLING NEWS Orange’s biggest, most prestigious road event, the Hotel Canobolas Christmas Cup has been run HEEE and won. The handicapping was perfect, the wind blew strongly and the three laps took their toll; ultimately the two strongest riders emerged with the top two steps of the podium. Greenthorpes William Hodges (recently signed to NRS team, GPM Stulz) held on with an audacious solo move from the impressive scratch bunch with around 4km’s remaining, the scratchies hesitated, looking for Attaque Gusto’s Timmy Guy to bring it all back together meanwhile Hodges made his escape. A little closer with the finish line nearly in sight Guy finally sprang from the pack and took a well deserved second place. Special mention to Bathurst’s Ryan O’Donnell who rounded out the podium with a real hardman’s ride (very Mick Cain’esc), and Helen Barnett taking the honour of fastest female. Well done to OCC on an outstanding event, not possible with the support of sponsors like the Hotel Canobolas and the many volunteers. The Road Club rounded out the weekend with the 2016 Club awards, the big gong deservedly went to Ian Reed for his impressive triple crown of Haute Routes in Europe. Other notable mentions: Colin Dibble: Mulga Bill Cycling mishap of the Year, happy healing vibes for Christmas Col. Lea Dally: Club Person of the year. Gydion Dally: Junior Performance of the Year Patrick Crump: Junior club person of the year The Orange Piranhas headed to Mudgee to further their quest for the Central West Triathlon Interclub Series on Sunday. Typically strong performance from the Orange masses including a great return to Tri for Jess Richards and an outstanding performance from young Tom Tudor were just a couple of the highlights.

GOOD

UGLY

BAD

The cricket came to town last weekend and I just want to say how great it is to see Orange getting some big sporting events once more. I also want to say a big ‘thanks’ to those that organised the event and the various organisations that made the day successful. It can’t have been easy. A decent crowd of over 3000 turned out – less than I would have thought – but they were entertained and well fed regardless! Now, there were a few things on last weekend that may have reduced the crowd numbers but I still think we could have got a few more there. The initial prediction of 5000 may have been a little over the top but I think 4000 would have been good. I love Wade Park, love to sit on the hill with the kids and enjoy the evening’s entertainment but 5000 people simply would not have been able to enjoy the game in that manner. The ground and/or grandstands probably need a little bit of a rethink if we want to attract bigger crowds to cricket matches. And I WANT to see more matches… One side of the ground gets the full sun from midday – and then when it starts to go down you can’t see a thing. If the western side of the ground was better designed, more people could enjoy the shade. The hill at the northern end is more popular than the southern end for the same reason – the sun exposure the southern hill gets makes it hard for the grass to grow and it has become uncomfortable. First world problem, I know but these are genuine issues if we are to attract more people. I wonder, when we get a dedicated rectangle sporting complex, just how much consideration Wade Park will get, especially considering it’ll effectively become a singular sporting complex. We all heard the financial promises that were made in regard to a cricket academy but how far will they extend? All I know is I love being able to enjoy larger sporting events right here at home, If you do too, please get to them and support them as much as possible.

In keeping with the summer of cricket tradition, what is bad is just how much I am struggling to get any work done as I keep thinking about ways to make sure I can watch the Test today (Thursday) between our lads and Pakistan. For some reason the subscription I paid for via Optus won’t work and my Foxtel subscription doesn’t include free to air so the phone/iPad option is out too. Again, first world problem but he struggles are real friends! I could just take the day off; I am the boss after all… but no, better set a good example for the team. Especially Ben, he is truly struggling to even get a day off over Christmas and certainly can’t afford to have a sick day just because he saw the boss have one. So what to do? Perhaps we could have a late and unnecessary lunch meeting at one our towns fi ne licenced venues… but then I’d have to pay. Nope, that’s out too. The radio! The dulcet tones of the ABC guys doing their thing will have to suffice. I’ve been keen as for this Test series to get underway since we got spanked in South Africa. They were far too good for us but hopefully our guys are looking to redeem themselves and why not do so against a very strong Pakistan team? They’ll be quietly confident, the Paki’s and why wouldn’t they be? Despite their recent 2-0 loss to New Zealand and the fact that the bookies have them slotted as $6.20 outsiders for the first Test, they are truly capable of upsetting our guys. Consider that Pakistan were, just two months ago, the number one ranked Test side and there have been few changes to that make up. They drew 2-all with England and that result should probably carry more weight than the loss in New Zealand. Under Skipper Misbah ul-Haq, Pakistan are a much more settled side. Far from the once flaky but potentially brilliant side of days gone by. They clearly enjoyed the result against the English and the loss in New Zealand will have them, too seeking some redemption. Look out Australia, Pakistan are coming hard. Think I’ll have a nibble at that $6.20 before it disappears.

Royal Hotel Cup vs Centrals For all interested Warriors, the next game of the RHC will be this Friday 16th December against Centrals. There might be a BBQ on that night, so get along and support the Warriors to make it two from two. Following that, add to your diary Wednesday 25th January when we play our last round match against Blayney.

The

Warriors

War Cry

Weekend Roundup As Christmas gets closer the cricket will wind down for the break and First grade have been lucky enough to get the bye before Christmas. Good to see the boys were off and supporting the other grades in both the seniors and junior ranks. Let’s work with the Cent Cuppers first, playing CYMS and in a T20 CYMS only managed 82 with Kyle Tex Walker taking 3-9 and supported well by Nick Warburton 1-7 both from their 4 overs. City went in for the bat and in a close contest, the Warriors were victorious scoring the winning runs with 2 balls to spare. Rising star Nick Warburton again was influential with 22. A great effort team. 3rds had the task of taking on Waratahs and after batting first, the Warriors total of 160 looked very competitive. Jace Corby 45, Louis Shea 31 and Rory Gibbons 27 doing the bulk of the scoring. Now in for a bowl and with the Paul “I’m out for the season” Flitcroft in the team, you would have thought that a victory would ensue. ‘Tahs however, had other ideas and chased down the score only losing four wickets in the process. Time to get back in the winners circle lads and this weekend will provide that opportunity. Except it is supposed to pour rain…

SPORT

2nds took on Kinross and City took the crease first. The Warriors, without Captain Stedo, put the Kinross bowling to the sword and after their overs were up 179 was on the board. Craig Rogan’s scratchy but needed 35, Adam Cowden 36, Darren Barrett 33 and Churchy’s 30 had the majority. Time to bowl and it was the Ben McIntosh show, taking 5-18 in short time, the Warriors were never pressed bowling out Kinross for 69. So far this season B Mac has been accumulating the wickets more than he used to knock back pies and it is truly great to see him back at the club doing a job with his bowling. Good win gents. Wining without the skipper seems a trend… might be time for someone to tap him on the shoulder permanently…

Clubman of the Month It is often the way, that most club men or women go unheralded for what they do and achieve for the club throughout the season. So far this season, Greg Seib has been on a mission and has had a monumental impact in his junior roles with the Warriors and the junior association (treasurer), pop in the top job of City Treasurer and he has been one busy bee. The Golden Warrior thanks you Greg ‘Seiby’ Seib for your tireless efforts to make junior cricket an awesome aspect of Orange City Cricket Club. If anyone noticed Seiby’s profuse sweating at the Thunder T20 matches on Sunday, then you would have known he was the energiser bunny moving from one job to the next. Orange City is thankful for your hard work and it is noticed, congratulations for your efforts. Keep up the good work Seibs.

Is promoting the fact that Nick Kyrgios and Bernhard Tomic are rebels really the most sensible marketing ploy Channel 7 could have gone with? I mean, it seems to me that most of this country’s sporting fans are NOT fans of these two fools, so why promote that fact? Why give power to their behaviour? All that ad campaign has done is give weight to their pathetic, childish behaviour. On top of this, Sam Groth, a huge talent without the childish traits of the other pair, has also been thrown into the mix as a ‘rebel’. Is this really the image we want to portray to the rest of the tennis playing world? “We can play a bit, but the minute you get on top of us or things don’t go our way, we’re going to chuck the toys out of the cot”. And then we’ll nonchalantly ignore every great who offers to help because we know best. I want success for both Tomic and Kyrgios, truly I do, but not if it means they swear, sledge and carry on like idiots. The fact that Kyrgios has declared this season to be a success despite getting a ban from his sport shows the mentality we’re dealing with. So what would I have done I hear you ask? Well, unless I had to do so due to contractual reasons, I wouldn’t have touched either of them, would have left them off the promotional stuff all-together. Stuff em! They deserve nothing until such time as they win something or prove themselves worthy through decent behaviour. After all, who’s to even say that the two won’t do something dumb and decide they don’t want to play that day? Kyrgios in particular is hard to watch, brilliant one minute with the talent of the world at his feet but then he just decides to not bother. Very frustrating. Of course, I don’t know either of these two men, they may well be charitable and decent blokes but if so, that is the version of them I’d like to see on the screen.

Attention Carnivores Do you have a hankering for protein? DO you love a hearty sausage more than Matt Findlay loves shameless self-promotion?

This Friday and next, get there as our hams will be up for grabs.

z I was born on November 27, 1940, in San Francisco. z A year after my birth my family moved back to Hong Kong. z I appeared in roughly 20 films as a child actor. z After being beaten up by a street gang, I turned to the Chinese martial art of kung fu. z In 1959, my parents sent me back to the US to live with my sister. z During my university years I met and married Linda Emery. z In 1966 I landed an acting part in the TV series The Green Hornet. z Unhappy with the number of roles available to me, I moved my family back to Hong Kong in 1971 and soon released the films Fists of Fury (1971) and The Chinese Connection (1972), both of which set box office records in Hong Kong. z On July 20, 1973, just one month before the premiere of my fourth film Enter the Dragon, I died at the age of 32 from a brain edema.

THE THUMBS

Thumbs down to the guy who wouldn’t call his two brown Labradors back in a leash free zone when asked. Instead just calls out I’m in a leash free area. Tired of people like this, thinking it’s okay for their dogs to harass other dog walkers who do the right thing! Where has all the decency and consideration of other people gone! Thumbs up to all the people who got into the spirit of our Christmas Scavenger hunt a few weeks ago. Your involvement made our night all the more enjoyable! Love the guys at the Lucknow Skin Shop & Boot Barn! Thumbs Up! We are new residents of Nashdale and find OCL a very informative and interesting local newspaper. Keep up the good work! Thumbs down to the candidates in the recent bi-election who have not removed their advertising posters.

SHOW US YOUR THUMBS!—SMS: 0459 022 084 STANDARD SMS RATES APPLY // EMAIL: RECEPTION@OCLIFE.COM.AU // FACEBOOK: INBOX ‘ORANGE CITY LIFE’

A big Thumbs up to the bar staff at Orange City Bowling Club. You guys rock, the Club should be so glad to have you all; Heidi and Megan in the Bistro, you work so well together! Thumbs down to the editor of OCL for stifling free speech when it comes to the condition of roads in the OCC area. Let the people have their say on issues that affect them! I wonder how much advertising revenue or influence OCL receives from OCC… ED’s note: We do indeed receive some advertising revenue from OCC, thanks for asking, BUT they have NO influence over me or this magazine. Regardless, this has nothing to do with my decision. Hardly am I ‘stifling free speech’ rather, I am trying to encourage you all to do so through a better channel. Our newly elected Local Member or our incumbent Federal Member for instance. Pot holes and our roads are an issue for discussion but not in the thumbs section.

Big Thumbs up and thankyou to the kind (but unknown) person who paid for some of my groceries last week at Anson St. Woolies. Because I can’t track you down to repay you, I have paid your generosity forward. Thankyou again for your kindness when I needed it most. Thumbs up to Paula and Fiona at the Orange Women’s Shed, a great year and thank you for looking after us all. Thumbs down to shoppers who wander off from the trolley (free of groceries) leaving them and blocking the way for other shoppers. So very annoying! Thumbs down. Very disappointed in Blayney Council for selling Inala units in Millthorpe, what a blow for the older generation living there not knowing the future. Thumbs up to the person who handed my forgotten parcel into Venue Café. Thank you to Venue for the safe return of my forgotten parcel from several weeks ago.

A huge thankyou to Millthorpe Village community members and to all the residents who turned up to our meeting on Thursday 1st and to everyone who is in support of a NO SALE, thanks from the bottom of my heart.

Thumbs up to Canobolas High teachers and students for the great food and gluten free options and their excellent service at the HAAC Centre for volunteers, we can’t thank the organisers enough, your efforts are greatly appreciated.

Thumbs up to Carol on the 20th of Nov, who was kind enough to give me $100 after the checkout machine at the Coles was unable to do the cash out option. I can’t thank you enough! You have saved my life this Christmas, it was greatly appreciated thank you!

Huge Thumbs up to Peter from Mitre 10 who stayed back last Sunday. He waited till I drove from Blayney to collect a purchase. Not only that, he loaded it, tied it on and did it all with the greatest smile. Top service, thank you immensely.

Thumbs up to the two managers at the Buena Vista opp shop for the great night out, and to the UPA management for the lunch for volunteers of the shop. It was a great and very enjoyable evening thank you!

Thumbs up to the 532 Bus, to all the guys and Vicki. Merry Christmas from all the golden oldies!

Thumbs up to the local schoolies who are giving up their well-earned holidays to volunteer in Nepal. Thumbs up to Hayla from North Orange Maccas for dealing with rude customers in a professional and polite manner! Thumbs up to the volunteers at Mustard Tree Café for a delicious Christmas meal and making everyone so welcome!

Thumbs up to the creative people responsible for the festive hay bale display in and around Millthorpe. It’s not always a good time of the year for everybody and I wanted to say thankyou to you for sharing some joyous light in this season. You have made my day. Thumbs down to the election candidates who still have left their posters around town.

Thumbs up to all the staff at Calare Nursing Home for all the wonderful work that they do, Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas to all of the thumbs up! Thumbs up to Auto One on Friday, Callum for your help and friendly smile who put in a new brake light. Your help was great, thank you! Thumbs up to the lady who helped me in Big W recently, she could see I was struggling with a baby and pram plus a huge layby. I hope you have a very Merry Christmas! Thank you!
