ALDINGA BAY RESIDENTS ASSOCIATION
Well! You got your Coastal Views last month.
Believe me it was never a certainty. With the short notice
of Eddie’s resignation and no-one else ‘lined up in the
wings’ to take over it was up to me or there would be no
issue for April.
Unfortunately it was an extremely busy time for me and I
therefore had less time than usual to put it all together.
There was also a minor ‘hiccup’ in setting up my
computer to access the Coastal Views email which
unfortunately led to some emails being lost ‘in
cyberspace’.
All in all it was a rather rushed exercise with several
‘blunders’ eventuating. (See apologies below). However
one can only do one’s best.
I have started to collate similar ads & contributions
together in the same area and put a reference to that area
on the cover index. The aim of this is to make the mag a
more user-friendly reference tool for those of you who like
to use it as such.
I have had negative feedback from a couple of advertisers
who apparently don’t like to be on the same page as the
competition, but that is the only feedback I have had.
What do you think as readers?
In last month’s issue I also posed questions about the
future of ABRA and Coastal Views.
No one has responded. I’ve heard the term “Apathy Bay”
used about our area in the past. Is this accurate?
The ABRA committee need to hear from you if we are to
be effective in representing you.
Drop us a line or email with your ideas and / or
suggestions.
A rather provocative letter to the editor about the
deterioration of our lifestyle here was published last month
and it got no response.
Is there anyone out there?
Our last ABRA general meeting again lacked a quorum.
This month Cr. Wenham is outlining Council’s policy on
vehicles on the beach. This has been a very controversial
topic, so hopefully more residents will show an interest
and attend.
The Mayor also recently ran a “Built Heritage Forum”,
which I attended on behalf of ABRA. Representatives of
both State and Local Government bodies spoke outlining
the processes and parameters in declaring buildings and
places heritage listed and the ways in which they can be
preserved. It is good that Council is looking into this area
with several buildings / heritage zones being lost to
developers in the City, not the least of which was the
approval of the Leasecorp supermarket complex in
Historic Aldinga Township.
The Aldinga-Sellicks Alliance (conveners of the recent
Aldinga On Display event) is currently in the planning
stages to see what events / services can be developed to
improve our district.
Let’s have more feedback through letters to the editor and
attendance at General Meetings.
Kevin Hutton
Secretary.
APOLOGIES.
I need to apologise to the following whose contributions
or advertisements were messed up last month:
The Professionals - Aldinga. I apparently somehow
resurrected an old ad rather than put in the current
one submitted. It apparently contained details which
are no longer current or accurate and caused their
business some embarrassment.
Killa & Mitre 10 McLaren Vale. Only half the
horticulture article came though and was printed
making the pictures irrelevant and missing out the
competition completely.
Giselle Robin. Her article just didn’t arrive.
Therefore the pictures printed lost their impact.
WED, May 12th at 7.30 pm
Incorporating:

Stewart Avenue
Aldinga Beach.
May meeting guest speaker will be Cr. Yvonne Wenham

GEMS OF THE DISTRICT
Friends of the Willunga Basin
(from Giselle Robin)
The Willunga Basin is the naturally defined region bounded by the coast and the hillcrest from Sellicks Beach,
around Willunga, McLaren Flat to Kangarilla and across to Maslin Beach (see Map).
The Future of the Willunga Basin – as we know it – is under
threat of invading development.
One very dedicated group – Friends of Willunga Basin – is
determent to preserve the beauty and significant heritage of
this region not only for families living there, but also as a
weekend destination for people from Adelaide and tourists from
interstate and overseas. The Willunga Basin has also become
an attraction for the Film Industry which has already shown the
beauty of our region worldwide.
The Friends of Willunga Basin started in the late
1980s with a response to a proposed marina development as the Aldinga Bay Anti Marina Association (ABAMA)
to fight the issue which lead to the disallowance of the Marina Development in 1989. Since then their attention
turned to wider issues and they changed their name to ‘Friends of Willunga Basin’.
Their objectives are : to retain natural and heritage assets, keep housing within present urban growth boundaries,
insure planning precedes development, retain agriculture as primary land use East of the South Road, promote
sustainable lifestyle, plan for climate change and above all: achieve legislation backing those objectives. Tasks
ahead are: lobbying the Onkaparinga Council and State Government for wiser, long term planning, not only for the
Basin but also for buffer zones around it, planning for climate change and pollution control.
Protective legislation exists for similar areas in Swan Valley WA: ‘Environmental Protection Act 1986’ and ‘WA’s
Swan Valley Planning Act 1995’ which was brought in by people power. People would not vote for a Government
which did not agree with this legislation. I hope it is not too late for us to act like that! In California similar
legislation was put in place for the Napa and Sonoma Valleys to ensure that urban sprawl would not destroy
something so important – not only for current generation but for future generations. Our Willunga Basin needs that
sort of protection – especially because with our recycled water it could become Adelaide’s most important diverse
and intensive food supplier when other areas dry out and a change from grape growing areas to vegetable
productions occurs.
The friends of the Willunga Basin have raised their concerns in meetings, public forums, with presentations to
politicians, Council and State Government and need your help to get the protection for the Basin with strong, long
term legislation which has to replace the words: ‘may, would and should’ which means: ‘can but doesn’t have to’
which is not legal terminology, as those laws cannot be enforced, with the words: ‘has/have to or must’ to be
effective and enforceable or they leave loopholes for developers or the government.
Hon.R.L.Brokenshire has reintroduced a Bill to Parliament in October
2009 for the amendment of the Development Act 1993 to get the
protection required for saving the Willunga Basin and wants to establish
a Willunga Basin Protection Committee as a body corporate, but that Bill
also contains the words ‘would, should and may and is therefore not
strong enough. His Bill has passed the Legislative Council, but is highly
unlikely to pass Parliament because it is flawed (John Hill’s MP words,
who especially pointed out the power Mr Brokenshire gave to the
Committee}. Well, why do we need a Committee when we have all the
facts on the table? All we need is a decisive law and stick to it!
Efforts are being made by the government to introduce their own Bill by
Leon Bignell MP based on the legislation for the Parklands: Parkland Act and the River Murray Act.
How much longer do we have to wait for it??
(Photos courtesy FOWB)
Editor’s comment: Some protection is being afforded to this area through special mention of the area we refer to
as the “Willunga Basin” zone in the Government’s 30 year plan. - But is it enough?

Port Willunga is well-known today as the beach with the old jetty posts – but how did its earlier
inhabitants see it?
Early paintings of Port Willunga, many by amateurs, reflect a community long since gone but still
remembered by many who have visited or lived here over the years.
Port Willunga resident Ann Winnall (photo below) is the niece of well-known characters Ellie, Bessie
and Rachel Giles, who ran the Aldinga Post Office opposite the Aldinga Hotel until they retired to Port
Willunga. Bessie, who had studied under Will Ashton, did beautiful paintings of the surrounding
countryside and the beach and cliffs, like the one pictured, many of which are still in Ann’s possession.
Bessie’s autograph book, Ann discovered, includes an early painting of St Ann’s church on South Road
by Elsie Hay Taylor.
Other identified works include some by Canon Wilfred
Murphy, whose house was on Port Road, and who painted in
about 1903. His are believed to be among the earliest
representations of Port Willunga.
Ann Winnall in Port Willunga Post Office
Through this early art the former settlement along Port Road
and the creek comes to life again – the Harbour Master’s
house, Uncle Tom’s Cabin, the Temperance Hotel, the old
dairy, the early jetty from which the sailing ships were
loaded with grain and slate, and of course the familiar beach
and cliffs known to us today.
An exhibition of these early amateur paintings will be on display at the Aldinga Library
from the 11th to the 29th May.
Thanks to Anne Chittleborough for this contribution.

REAL ESTATE
By Century 21 SouthCoast
WHAT GOES DOWN MUST GO UP!
Sounds a little Greek you say!
Well that’s because the number of house sales in the Aldinga Bay area
have gone down causing the market price to go up in an undersupply
situation.
For the 1st quarter of 2010 the median house price jumped a dramatic 9%
on the previous quarter while house sales numbers for the quarter
dropped to 78, the lowest level in the past few years and 24% down on
the same quarter the previous year.
The following graphs illustrate the trend very clearly.

Our promise to you is to provide
exceptional customer service because
we know that’s what you expect. That’s
why more people are choosing to buy,
sell, and rent through Century 21 than
any other agent in the southern suburbs.
SELLING – by Private Treaty

You may be wondering why sales numbers are down and I assure you it
has nothing to do with market conditions because demand couldn’t be
much better than it is at the current time. Home owners have simply
decided to sit on their hands for the time being, but if you were seriously
considering selling, now is the time to do just that. The market rule of
supply and demand will work in your favour. It did for my wife and I
who decided to sell our own house in December after purchasing a new
property in Aldinga Beach. We took ours to auction and achieved 10%
more than we were prepared to sell it for.

Reasons why the English language
is so hard to learn:
1) The bandage was wound around
the wound.
2) The farm was used to produce
produce.
3) The dump was so full that it had to
refuse more refuse.
4) We must polish the Polish furniture.
5) He could lead if he would get the lead out.
6) The soldier decided to desert his dessert in the
desert.
7) Since there is no time like the present, he thought
it was time to present the present.
8) A bass was painted on the head of the bass drum.
9) When shot at, the dove dove into the bushes.
10) I did not object to the object.
11) The insurance was invalid for the invalid.
12) There was a row among the oarsmen about how
to row.
13) They were too close to the door to close it.
14) The buck does funny things when the does are
present.

GREAT TRUTHS ABOUT LIFE THAT LITTLE CHILDREN HAVE LEARNED:
1)
No matter how hard you try, you can't baptise cats.
2)
When your Mom is mad at your Dad, don't let her brush your hair.
3)
If your sister hits you, don't hit her back. They always catch the second person.
4)
Never ask your 3-year old brother to hold a tomato.
5)
You can't trust dogs to watch your food.
6)
Don't sneeze when someone is cutting your hair.
7)
Never hold a Dust-Buster and a cat at the same time.
8)
You can't hide a piece of broccoli in a glass of milk.
9)
Don't wear polka-dot underwear under white shorts.
10)
The best place to be when you're sad is Grandpa's lap.
GREAT TRUTHS ABOUT LIFE THAT ADULTS HAVE LEARNED:
1)
Raising teenagers is like nailing Jell-O to a tree.
2)
Wrinkles don't hurt.
3)
Families are like fudge . . .mostly sweet, with a few nuts.
4)
Today's mighty oak is just yesterday's nut that held its ground.
5)
Laughing is good exercise. It's like jogging on the inside.
6)
Middle age is when you choose your cereal for the fibre, not the joy.
IMPORTANT QUESTIONS:
Why do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are getting weak?
Why do banks charge a fee on "insufficient funds" when they know there is not enough?
Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billion stars, but check when you say the
paint is wet?
Why doesn't glue stick to the bottle?

The trick is to get citrus trees with the correct root
stock (dwarf). Remember to keep up the water & to
fertilize regularly & you shouldn’t have a problem. Just
have a chat with the team from Mitre 10 McLaren Vale
& they will guide you with your purchase.
G,day, again.
Let’s get straight into pruning fruit & nut trees.
Rule no: 1. sterilize your secateurs & loppers
regularly, using metho or bleach, my colleague from
work, Lance recommends metho only.
Rule no: 2. If you doubt the importance of sterilizing
your secateurs regularly refer to Rule no: 1, this is
extremely vital as disease is so easily transferred by
pruning.
May is probably the best month for pruning fruit & nut
trees, because the weather is still reasonably dry but
the tree’s metabolism is slowing down (there is less
sap movement in the trees). Dry weather helps to
prevent fungal disease on large open cuts, I’m talking
about Phormopsis, commonly known as “Die Back”,
this can be easily prevented by painting major cuts, (if
there is any moisture around) with a Fungal paint ie:
Steri Prune.
The first thing you need to do, is to cut old water
shoots out, the plant is spending unnecessary energy,
feeding the water shoots & not the fruiting branches.
The best way to imagine what the tree would look like
is to imagine a vase overflowing with flowers. There’s
very little growth in the middle of the vase. This is the
same with fruit trees; the idea is to open up the middle
of the tree to maximize the photosynthesis & sugar
production. This will also in turn allow more air flow &
light, which helps prevent diseases. It is important that
you cut all dead or diseased wood & branches off & it
would be a great idea to spray theses cuts with Steri
Prune straight away.
It is important to keep the new growth, as this will give
you your new fruit, but obviously you should keep your
tree at a height so you can pick your fruit. The young
growth lower in the tree has to be kept & protected, so
that later on you can then take height out of your fruit
tree. It is very difficult to describe how to prune a fruit
tree, if in doubt you can always hire a professional
gardener to do it, but it is not really that hard, you’re
not going to kill your tree, but have a go anyway.
One question I have to answer, “can I compost my old
tomatoes”, and the answer is NO! Straight to the bin,
or burn them. They can be carrying so much disease.
It’s just too much of a chance to take, better to be safe
than sorry, because they are disease prone.
Now is the time to plant your citrus trees.
A huge range of citrus has just
arrived at Mitre 10 McLaren
Vale.
Everyone should have citrus
trees; there is nothing better
than fresh citrus. Sometimes
finding the perfect place to
plant them can be a problem,
space is usually the issue. You
can always plant them in pots,
they are mobile, look great &
taste fantastic.
Next month will be the time for pruning your roses.
What always fascinates me is that people don’t put a
lot of thought into pruning or don’t know how to prune
roses. For instance: do you prune your roses for
flowers or so that you’ve got a nice old green bush
with very few flowers? For example: a rose bush that
is all sticks at the bottom, a bit of green at the top with
only 1 or 2 flowers. People with a long row of roses,
are you attempting to make a rose hedge, which looks
fantastic. You’ve only got to go to Leaconsfield winery
& have a look at their rose hedge. It’s fantastic,
especially in full bloom. (Unfortunately the lack of
colour doesn’t do this picture justice - Ed.)
There
are
many different
options
that
you can use to
prune
your
roses.
Next month I
will do my best
to come up
with an article
that is easy to
understand for pruning roses.
This month, there is 2 questions, Killa’s question &
Killa’s reverse question:
Proudly sponsored by, you guessed it, Mitre 10
McLaren Vale, which is where I shop for all of my
gardening needs. Get over there & tell them Killa sent
ya!
Question is: All fertilizers have a “N.P.K.” rating. What
do the letters N.P.K. stand for?
Killa’s reverse question, this is really easy!
You ask me a gardening question, the best & most
original question, will be the winner!
So start thinking!
Send or email your entry into Coastal Views, contact
details are in the back of this issue, including your
name & contact details with your answer or question.
Winners will be drawn on 14/5/10 & notified. Fred &
the team from Mitre 10 McLaren Vale have done it
again.
2 vouchers for $50.00
each are up for grabs.
Thanks Mitre 10!
Catch ya next time,
Killa.
Special thanks to Lance!

WHAT IS PLASMA?
The pale liquid part of the blood that makes
up half of the blood’s volume.
Why donate plasma?
The blood service predicts a 100 per cent
increase in demand for blood during the next
ten years. The demand is being driven by
plasma due to an ageing population and
developments in medical science.
What diseases are combated by plasma
based products?
Mostly chronic auto-immune deficiencies and
cancers.
How often can you give plasma?
If you are already a blood donor, fit and
healthy, every two weeks.
How many products does plasma make?
Plasma is used to make 16 different products
and contains very important proteins,
nutrients and clotting factors, which help to
prevent and stop bleeding.

ENGLISH LANGUAGE AGAIN!
Let's face it - English is a crazy language. There is
no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger, neither
apple nor pine in pineapple.
English muffins weren't invented in England or
French fries in France.
Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads, which
aren't sweet, are meat.
We take English for granted. But if we explore its
paradoxes, we find that quicksand can work
slowly, boxing rings are square and a guinea pig is
neither from Guinea nor is it a pig.. And why is it
that writers write but fingers don't fing, grocers
don't groce and hammers don't ham? If the plural
of tooth is teeth, why isn't the plural of booth
beeth? One goose, 2 geese. So one moose, 2
meese? One index, 2 indices?
Doesn't it seem crazy that you can make amends
but not one amend.
If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of
all but one of them, what do you call it? (continued

DOES YOUR PET HAVE
ARTHRITIS?
Just as we rug up in our woolies as winter arrives so too do
our pets feel the cold chill in the air. Older pets especially
are affected by the cold weather. Any signs of stiffness or
general aches and pains can be an indication that your pet
has arthritis.
Arthritis is a painful disease of the joints caused by the
degeneration of cartilage, which limits the normal range of
movement. It can cause a range of signs from reluctance to
go for walks, limping, stiffness in the mornings or when
rising, changes in normal behaviour and even licking at the
sore joints. Arthritis can affect all ages, types, and sizes of
dogs and cats.
There is a range of treatment options available for arthritis
in pets. A check up at Willunga Vets can quickly determine
if your pet has arthritis. After a thorough examination your
vet will be able to discuss what options suit your pet best.
Appropriate medication will be prescribed and other
treatment options will be discussed including acupuncture,
diet modification and/or weight loss and appropriate
exercise regimes. Providing your pet with a warm, soft bed
that is protected from cold draughts will certainly help.
Don’t let your pet suffer with arthritis – make an
appointment at Willunga Veterinary Hospital and
keep Fido and Fluffy frost-free this winter!

Welcome
I am enjoying the school holidays and I hope that you
did not mind the break in classes. I return rested and
refreshed although I kept doing my daily routines of
stretches and strengtheners. The Victor Harbor lake is
‘bracing’ as the weather cools; April will be my last
swimming month until October.
Bone density
You have asked: why do we sometimes pause in our
aerobics to ‘put toes together and drop onto the heels’
and ‘stamp one foot after the other with wide feet’?

The purpose of these actions is to create
impact through the lower limbs, spine and
even the neck and head to stimulate bone
growth and improve bone density.

Gravity assisted movements are beneficial for
bones especially compared with astronauts.
They lose bone density each month they are
in space and weightless.

Impact exercises like ours replicate the effect
of bone density enhancing machines which
are based on a vibration principle.

Bone density is hard to recover once lost –
it’s better to retain it.

All weight bearing activity is good for
retaining bone density.
More on falls
Unfortunately falls do happen! Our best strategy is
fall prevention. This includes practicing balance
levels one, two, three and four plus strengthening
exercises as explained in last month’s Newsletter.
Shoe Type
There is debate about shoe type for running (reported
in W/E Australian, 20th March 2010). The popular
cushioned heel shoe is being questioned because it
encourages heel landing and associated impact and
soreness. Alternative shoes suggested are a tight
fitting, flat soled shoe. Personally I have switched to a
flat soled shoe and they are fine for our activities
including aerobics and very light indoor jogging.
I have found our class aerobic activity to be far easier
on joints than running (which I gave up some years
ago because of knee soreness). I also think that well
heeled sport shoes are fine for the type of activity we
do, and they are great for walking.
What quote do you live by?
Good question! Perhaps it is “make your hobby your job
and you never work a day in your life”. Regards fitness,
my quote is; “to be expert and professional requires
10,000 hours of training and practice”!
I have conducted about 2,500 classes over 6 years
(representing 2500 hours); together with preparation for
each class, and my own practice, I am about half way
toward the 10,000 hour goal. Maybe one day I will be
expert!
Sugar and calorie intake
“Why one biscuit is never enough”, Body and Soul,
March 2010, explains why biscuits, cakes and such
sugary foods are so ‘more-ish’. Sugar in these
products, or more precisely glucose-fructose syrup,
fails to trigger the stop eating or appetite depressing
mechanism. This is in line with last years’ Newsletter
item, ‘Sugary sweetness’, in which the role of sugar
in adding to weight was explained (“Sweet poison –
Why sugar makes us fat” by Davis Gillespie).
What is our ‘natural weight’?
Another aspect of weight issues is the idea that each
of us has a ‘natural weight’, toward which we move,
regardless! It’s an interesting idea caused by our
genetic makeup. Research with naturally thin people
found that even with excessive intake some failed to
gain weight and others returned to their previous
weight afterwards. This is not to dismiss the ability of
some people to burn excess calories and to lose
weight.
Further, we have been told that our metabolic rate,
being fast or slow, is the reason for us being either
thin or overweight. One researcher considers this is a
myth as she says it is rare to find anybody whose
metabolism is more than 10 per cent higher or lower
than average. In other words the puzzle of body
weight gain and loss does not lie in metabolic rate –
perhaps it is in our genes.

MAO’S LAST DANCER
CHI CAO JOAN CHEN AMANDA SCHULL
DIR. BRUCE BERESFORD BIO-PIC 2009
Based on the autobiography of Li
Cunxin, Mao’s Last Dancer at first
sits somewhere between Billy Elliot and Red Corner, but doesn’t
take long to reveal itself as a sophisticated bio-pic.
After the “fish out of water”
scenes, we examine opposing political/social
ideologies and how they affect both our individual
freedoms and that of a society as a whole. Don’t
worry, there isn’t any lecturing or haranguing, just the
viewpoint of a man in the
middle of a very serious choice.
Played by Chi Cao as an adult, Li Cunxin is naive to
the ways of the world, but is endearing to us because of this, and for the most part we remain sympathetic to his position as he grows and changes,
faults and all. Also noteworthy is the performance by
Huang Wen Bin as the child Li, and the transitions
for Cunxin ageing and getting stronger are exceptional in their subtlety and smoothness. Most performances are solid, though some cast members are
clearly dancers as opposed to actors, but all work
together superbly. The sequence set in the Chinese
Consulate is particularly engaging, except for the
poor casting choice of Jack Thompson as a US
judge. He jars and breaks the connection with the
story on screen.
Joan Chen is brilliant as Li’s mother: strong and loyal
to her country, but there is nothing as strong as a
true mothers love for her children.
Elizabeth, Li’s first wife played by Amanda Schull, is
one of the most important people in his life and instrumental in Li’s
success, but is ultimately given the short end of the
stick.
Nothing tragic, but you’ll see what I mean…
The dancing is highly impressive, by star Cao and
members of the Australian Ballet and Sydney Dance
Co. Even those not in to ballet will agree to the inCoastal Views, May 2010
credible level of fitness and talent on display
here. The music of Christopher Gordon too, is
delicate and seeps through the film in an aural
blend of east and west.
Part filmed in Sydney, however it’s the beautiful
landscapes of China that catch the breath, with
the exquisite mountain ranges providing a majestic backdrop to the humble village of Li’s childhood.
Aussie director Beresford’s style works; a mandatory training montage and enough slow- mo to
make John Woo proud!
A strong story about following your heart and
your dreams and that hard choices aren’t made
without cost.
Have some dumplings.

Many of us would believe that we live in a safe environment, a community where our families and
neighbours aren’t at risk due to their surroundings. What if there was something in your community that
could potentially cause health problems and place those with medical conditions at risk?
In our local area many would be aware of the Sellicks Beach Quarry. The Quarry was first established
by the Southern Quarries and Direct Mix Group in 1972. Since then a marble deposit was opened up at
the Sellicks site in the year 2000. The quarry provides dolomite and blue stone quarry rubble, selling
the rocks to numerous businesses, companies and builders.
Although the quarry provides a sought-after product that many people use for their homes and gardens,
the influx of dust has recently become a heightened issue. Sellicks Beach woman, *Pam (real name
withheld), recently decided to make a stand to try to reduce the amount of dust that has been blowing
into the Sellicks Beach area. Dust from the quarry is caused by ‘blasting’ (explosions within the cave)
and the fine dust from this carries into the Sellicks area. Due to there being such high impulse
explosions to loosen rubble within the cave, is has become hard to control the spread of dust.
“They say that [the quarry’s] not hazardous [or] dangerous,” states Carol “Dust however is the main
problem”. Along with several other residents in the area, Carol suffers from asthma and finds that her
breathing becomes restricted when the quarry dust is present. Not only does this dust issue affect
asthmatics, but it also causes grief for those with heightened allergy problems.
Apart from the health issues, dust from the quarry also makes its way into backyards and houses,
affecting the cleanliness of people’s homes. Carol noted that one issue she has been faced with was
discovering high levels of phosphates in her pool.
‘We have a swimming pool and took our sample down to be tested,” stated Carol. “They [asked] did we
know that our pool [was] very high in phosphates”. The man assured Carol that although this isn’t
harmful, high levels of phosphates can cause chlorine to disappear at a fast rate, promoting algae and
uncleanliness in the pool.
In early March this year, Carol contacted a government department dealing with Primary Industries and
Resources in South Australia. Several mining compliance officers began to tackle and resolve the dust
issue in the Sellicks Beach area. Currently, the Sellicks Quarry has been requested to build sheds around
the opening of the cave to prevent dust from spreading out into the community. Carol and other Sellicks
Beach residents have also been told by mining regulators that the quarry may soon be expanding and
moving to mine into the hill behind their allotted area. Although this will subsequently cause more dust
and the disturbance of flora and fauna, expanding the quarry area is necessary to continue the
production numerous rocks and to maintain a profitable business.
Since contacting the government department, Carol has noted that “there hasn’t been as much dust” yet
this is just “a small improvement” considering how horrific the dust issue became. Although the dust
still has the potential to cause health problems for those in the community, the Sellicks Quarry have
abided by regulations that the Primary Industries and Resources Department have put into place.
Hopefully in the near future all drifting dust from the Sellicks Beach Quarry will be completely
eradicated, allowing our local residents to not be impeded or affected by such problems that potentially
affect their health and well-being.

DUST - A historical perspective.
(Comments from Kevin Hutton)
Prior to the 21st century most development in the area was piecemeal with individual blocks being cleared and
built on as the owners developed. This created problems during construction for nearby neighbours (if there
were any) when the wind was in the wrong direction.
With the onset of broad acre development by major developers and their practice of denuding whole
subdivisions, the dust problem has been severely exacerbated, with insufficient protection afforded to the
surrounding neighbours by developers. Readers who have been in the area for a few years will remember some
of these incidents.
ABRA has been involved in lobbying Council over this issue several times.
These photos are the result of dust from Sunday and Ocean Acres developments in January 2008.
Imagine trying to mow this front lawn!
Council workers used shovels to clear gutters.
Similar problems were experienced by Quinliven Road residents when Seacrest Estate was developed.

ENGLISH LANGUAGE AGAIN! Continued from p 17
If teachers taught, why didn't preachers praught?
If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?
Sometimes I think all the English speakers should be committed to an asylum for the verbally insane. In what
language do people recite at a play and play at a recital?
Ship by truck and send cargo by ship? Have noses that run and feet that smell?
How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites? You
have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language in which your house can burn up as it burns down, in which
you fill in a form by filling it out and in which an alarm goes off by going on.
When the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, they are invisible.

Members of the Aldinga Bay Community Shed have been busy selling an amazing range of goods that
have been made on Men’s Day at the Shed which is held every Thursday from 9am – 3.30pm. They are
also selling craft, mosaic, pottery and jewellery goods made by volunteers at the Shed. The proceeds
from the sale of these goods are put back into the running of the Shed.
The Aldinga Bay Community Shed has now been open nearly a year and they have a great range of
courses and activities available so check out the latest Centre’s Newsletter and book now.
Men’s Day at the Shed on Thursdays has been very successful and a great chance for local men to join
the Shed volunteers for machine training and to complete odd jobs and make items to sell for the Shed or
make something themselves.
So come and drop in and have a cup of coffee and check out what is
happening and meet local residents.
The goods made are available from the Aldinga Community Centre and the members of the Shed
committee will also be at the local shopping centre at times. These goods include wooden bowls,
children’s wooden puzzles, bird boxes, cutting boards, toilet roll holders plus many other great gift
ideas.

WILLUNGA HILL ART GROUP
PRESENTATION
The City of Onkaparinga held their appreciation
and awards evening at the Mc Laren Vale and
Fleurieu Visitor Information Centre on Monday
12th April.
Presentation of volunteer awards for those
participating in Stage 5 of the recent tour down
under and the best dressed town awards were made.
An award was accepted from Mayor Lorraine
Rosenberg by WHAG’s (Willunga Hill Art Group)
co coordinator Adrienne Earl for the group’s work
in painting the crown on the Old Willunga Hill
road. This is the Group’s twelfth year that the
artists have undertaken this project, which has
become a King of the Hill stage 5 land mark for
both riders and spectators.
The Crown was designed by local Aldinga artist
Kathy Ferguson and has been painted on top of the
hill every year since the inception of the event with
the permission and cooperation of the City of
Onkaparinga.
After the presentation of awards BBQ and drinks
were enjoyed by all those who attended.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
TO WHOMEVER IT MAY CONCERN…
We are grateful to the person who was thoughtful
enough to turn off the water supply at St Ann's
Anglican Church, South Road, Aldinga, to
prevent the property being flooded.
We would be even more grateful if that person
would pay for the replacement of the copper
piping stolen on that occasion.

XMAS Bottle drive Funds hit the spot!!!
We have two exciting projects under
way at the moment. These would not have
been possible if not for YOUR
SUPPORT.
On “Sellicks 34” we are adding an additional
cabinet with a roll out drawer to house our fridge
under the main body to make cold drinking water
easily accessible. We received the car fridge last
year from the State Government but have been
unable to house it on the appliance.
In the station all crew members will soon have
their own locker for turn-out gear and helmet
storage, with hanging space running out rapidly this
will be a very welcome improvement.
On the 11th of April we held our Easter Bottle
Drive. Volunteers spent the morning collecting
cans, bottles, jars & containers for recycling in
Sellicks and Silver Sands.
We raised $300 worth of recyclables during
the morning and would like to send a big thank you
to our residents, Caltex Aldinga, True Blue Hire &
especially Aldinga Recycling who never fail to
support us wherever possible. As always you will
find our recycling drop off point at the fire station
on Fontaine Drive or you can call me on 0437 007
105 for larger collections.

Easter at Willunga Uniting Church.
This Easter our faith community has been alive
with the celebration of the living love of our God.
A wonderful display of the story of Easter is
created each year in our tradition of the flowered
cross.
Many visitors, family and friends of the
congregation participated.
The beauty of the cross transformed was
particularly special this year with the addition of an
Australian native flower, the hakea.
As we have don't have the spring flowers of the
northern hemisphere we have adopted the
Australian native flower as our 'spring' flower.
A beautiful crimson and golden yellow bloom in
flower at the moment.
Children
also
created their own
piece of art work,
collaging a floral
cross.
Children
were
also part of the
welcome to the
Easter
service,
giving out flowers
as people arrived.
There have been
ma n y
Easter
messages in print
and on screen. But
the vivid symbol
of the flowered
cross manages to
transcend words.
The faith community continues to worship
creatively with a service of music in action the
following week. With participants bringing their
own musical instruments to play.
Our popular cake stall continues each month at the
quarry market. A range of homemade favourites
always sells out, so don't miss out.
Members are also being subsidized to attend a 'Go
and Grow' workshop in May.

Willunga’s theme for the weekend of 29th and 30th May, as

the Doors” on some of Willunga’s heritage-listed buildings
so that you can find out more about the building, its early
owners or its history. Set aside a few hours in your diary
now, for either Saturday 29th or Sunday 30th between 10

National Trust News
Have you considered becoming a guide at the Willunga
Court House and Slate Museum? We really need several
more volunteers to meet and greet our visitors and make
sure they enjoy their visit to the Museums. It's very
interesting - you meet people from all around Australia and
overseas, who are genuinely surprised by the quality of the
displays and range of information we provide. An
orientation will be provided for new volunteers. Please think
about whether you can help the Willunga National Trust in
this way. As little as 3-4 hours each month would make a
big difference and would be greatly appreciated. Please
