THAT’S A Martin Hunter special on the<br />

front page today.<br />

What I mean is the photo of community<br />

board member Linda Chen and her baby.<br />

It was taken by Hunter, still one of the<br />

best photographers in the country in my humble view, and it<br />

certainly captures the moment! No doubt it’ll be one for the<br />

scrapbook – electronic presumably these days.<br />

And of course congratulations to Linda and her husband<br />

Robin who first met when they were youngsters at primary<br />

school. Small world.<br />

You have to feel for Yaldhurst residents (page 1) fighting the<br />

quarry that will be right on their doorstep.<br />

The need for roading materials won out over health and now<br />

residents will have to dip deep into their pockets to keep fighting.<br />
