World Cup Hysteria 

hits TWT Territory 

A HUGE NIGHT of football festivity is expected on Saturday when fans across TWT Territory converge at ELS Hall 

Park ‘Live Site’ in North Ryde to cheer on the Socceroos as they kick-off their FIFA World Cup finals campaign in 

Russia. 

City of Ryde Mayor, Jerome Laxale, said 

he was delighted the Ryde community had a 

chance to come together and cheer on Australia 

in the biggest sporting tournament in 

the world. 

“The growth in popularity of football 

throughout Ryde is clear for all to see, so 

it’s only fitting that Council can put on this 

live site and provide people of all ages the 

chance to watch Australia begin their World 

Cup campaign,” Clr Laxale said. 

“There will be fun activities for the kids, 

great food for everyone and of course some 

great football to witness, so I encourage everyone 

to get down to ELS Hall Park on Saturday.”

Eastwood St Andrews FC 

celebrates 60th anniversary 

©®~®~ra~~ a~ ~~~~\Y/®~ij 

BUILT ON a proud tradition of Scottish football, Eastwood-St 

Andrews FC was founded by a local family on an 

ocean liner en route to Australia 60 years ago. This week’s 

edition of The Weekly Times pays tribute to this great club 

and its historic milestone. SEE PAGES 8 & 9. 

Australia faces a formidable challenge in its 

first-up encounter with world football powerhouse, 

France, kicking off at 8pm (AEST) with 

all the action to be showcased on a huge 

screen. 

But the festivities will get underway at 6pm 

at ELS Hall Park, with family-friendly activities 

taking place to complement the sporting 

action. 

After initial fears that weather would jeopardise 

the event, the planets have aligned 

for the City of Ryde with forecasts all but 

eliminating the chance of rain and controversy 

over ticketing costs at another outdoor 

World Cup event in Parramatta providing a 

much-needed boost for Ryde’s free event.

on ignorance 

Dear Sir, 

Carole Clark’s letter 

of last week and Tony 

Ikonomou’s serial instalments, 

reinforces my 

view that most racism 

and bigotry is based on 

ignorance. 

Ignorance of the facts, 

ignorance of history, ignorance 

of the definition 

of those words and an 

absolute ignorance of 

the damage and hurt that 

stems from their letters. 

And don’t get me wrong 

- everyone is entitled to 

hold their views and their 

opinions. 

The problem occurs 

when those views are 

articulated in a public forum 

and are not based on 

anything other than their 

own prejudices. 

I take great umbrage 

with both Ms Clark and 

Mr Ikonomou as they simply 

don›t, or are unwilling 

to believe that a conversation 

with an Uber driver 

or the viewing of several 

episodes of Border Security, 

in Ms Clark›s case, is 

not evidence to support a 

racist or bigoted position. 

Of course if you are 

constantly looking for 

examples of wrong doing 

then they will always be 

there. 

Ms Clark, like Mr Ikonomou, 

doesn›t understand 

that claiming a whole ethnic 

group, or people of a 

specific nationality, cannot 

be stereotyped and is 

in itself, xenophobic. 

In the end your opinions 

reflect poorly on both of 

you as any reader with 

clarity of mind and a kind 

and open heart will know.

Praise for Hunters 

Hill Hospital rehab 

Dear Sir, 

As the saying goes, 

“what you don’t know 

won’t hurt you”! Of 

course there must be 

many exceptions, and 

in my experience, one is 

the wonderful Hunters 

Hill Hospital Rehabilitation 

Centre, whom my 

previous knowledge of 

it’s existence was zilch.

Letters to the Editor 

I am currently recovering 

from total knee replacement 

surgery and 

sought out this type of 

outpatient facility to undertake 

an extended rehabilitation 

program. 

Knee replacement surgery 

these days is common 

place but nevertheless 

an operation and 

rehabilitation process 

not for the faint hearted. 

Hospitals are funny 

places - most people 

don›t give them a second 

thought, until you need 

one ie Hunters Hill. 

They function 24/7 and 

most tasks within seem 

to rely on team work and 

quite often, folk from a 

mix of differing countries 

of origin. 

What is evident is a 

shared work ethic and 

mutual respect - something 

for governments to 

think about. 

I have now completed 

a six week rehab stint at 

Hunters Hill under professional 

supervision. 

Many thanks go to my 

physio Janet who provided 

our session with 

great encouragement 

and expertise and for 

me, included such basics 

as «how to walk 

again». 

Groups I suppose, assemble 

for all sorts of 

reasons and may have 

LETTERS 

Welcome 

TWT welcomes letters 

from our readers. Full 

name, address and 

telephone number 

MUST be supplied, even 

if not for publication. 

Send to: TWT PO Box

times.com.au 

a common denominator 

such as religious belief 

or part of, or following a 

sporting team. 

Knee replacement rehabs 

however, are identified 

by an imposing and 

lengthy scar over a knee 

cap, sometimes both - a 

badge that generates instant 

empathy. 

Not to forget of course, 

those also with hip replacements 

or broken 

ankle surgery. 

To move this outpatient 

lot around, Hunters Hill 

Hospital provides a pick 

up drop home transport 

service throughout the 

day. 

This is an onerous and 

demanding essential 

function - particularly 

coping with customers 

like myself who on 

some days had second 

thoughts about participation. 

For mine, I must 

thank my drivers Angela 

and Jacqui. 

Well, “what you don›t 

know won’t hurt you”! 

I wonder how much 

more “won’t hurt you” 

exists out there? - I suspect 

heaps and heaps! 

Nevertheless, I also 

wonder if knee replacement 

surgery were to occur 

on a broader scale, 

it might make us a little 

more compassionate 

citizens ha!

Samaritan 

Dear Sir, 

I hope that the person 

who found my wallet last 

week and returned it to 

Woolworth’s Service Desk 

with everything still in it is 

reading this paper. 

As they didn’t leave their 

name, I couldn’t thank them 

in person. It is really nice to 

know that there are some 

honest people in Ryde. 

Whoever you are I thank 

you from the bottom of my 

heart. 

As I am an aged pensioner 

the loss of my wallet was 

devasting. 

Take care and thank you 

again.

Dear Sir, 

I must commend Ryde 

Hospital, staff and Dr Pillinger 

and team. 

What a professional outfit 

they all are. 

Dedicated to good service 

but also polite and 

extremely friendly. 

My brief stay highlighted 

how Ryde Hospital has 

engaged in not only caring 

but doing their jobs 

professionally with that 

tremendous sense of 

comfort which everyone I 

was with, commented on. 

Well done Ryde Hospital 

and staff and a big Thank

Hunters Hill Guest Column 

Wildwood still making beautiful 

furniture from recycled timbers 

WILDWOOD Designs 

unique furniture shop 

has been located in 

Gladesville for nearly 20 

years, now on the corner 

of Victoria Road and Osgathorpe 

Steet. 

Right next to Dan Murphy’s. 

We started our company 

making furniture 

mostly out of recycled 

hardwoods that were 

from old Sydney fences 

and structural hardwood 

beams from knockdown 

building sites. 

We are very proud to still 

make beautiful furniture 

from recycled timbers. 

Now we have expanded 

into making furniture using 

sustainable timbers 

like blackbutt, spotted 

gum, Victorian ash and 

American Oak to name a 

few. 

Our philosophy has always 

been to use recycled, 

reclaimed or sustainable 

timbers where 

we can. 

We do this firstly, for the 

protection of the environment 

and secondly, to get 

a look with character and 

style using quality Australian 

timber. 

Wildwood Designs also 

have a team of trained 

cabinet makers to make 

the custom pieces to 

specific dimensions. 

Our factory is based in 

Revesby and many of our 

staff have been with us 

for over ten years. 

* * * 

THESE days our customers 

are inspired by 

furnishings that they see 

on the internet, TV renovation 

shows and magazines. 

To The POINT 

With 

JULIET BARR 

If they give us a photo 

of what we were thinking 

would work in their space 

– say a home office, together 

we can work on 

a design that meets their 

design and function in 

a wood whose colour is 

complimentary to their 

existing d,cor and flooring. 

We also have a very 

experienced furniture 

sprayer who can create 

colours and finishes that 

can match a client’s existing 

furniture. 

I get asked a lot about 

what colour table will go 

with my floor. 

My answer is this: “you 

can contrast or compliment 

your floor.” 

I also suggest that if you 

have a lot of wood happening 

in your house, a 

rug and leather or metal 

chairs will break up all 

the timber with a different 

textures. 

We sell a variety of quality 

leather dining chairs 

made overseas. 

We searched the world 

for them and are delighted 

to have them available 

to our customers. 

We sell them at wholesale 

prices direct to the 

public. I also lend chairs 

to people can take them 

home and see what they 

look like in their house 

before they buy a whole 

set. 

This helps people who 

are just a little uncertain 

that the colour of the 

chair is going to work or 

not. 

* * * 

MOST recently we 

have been making furniture 

from old steel and 

wrought iron that we find 

around Sydney. 

Old sewing machine 

bases are our favourite! 

Not just Singer but other 

international brands 

that no one would have 

heard of. 

Many customers come 

in and tell me that their 

mother used to make 

their clothes on an old 

Singer or equivalent. 

These metal bases 

make such lovely side tables 

with interesting timber 

tops. 

Once a year we have a 

June stock take sale on 

furniture that we just want 

to move. 

Some pieces are up 

to 50 per cent off. Also 

some of our discontinued 

leather chairs are 40 per 

cent off too.

millions in fines 

The City of Ryde has pocketed more than 

three million dollars in parking fines in the 

last 12 months. 

Revenue NSW data 

reveals the City of Ryde 

took $3, 168, 178 in 

fines, which is slightly 

less than Canada Bay 

with $3,435,443 and 

significantly lower than 

the City of Parramatta 

with $6,644,545 and the 

Inner West West Council 

with a staggering 

$9,995,521. 

Hunters Hill Council 

was way behind with 

just $180, 521 in fines 

while Lane Cove netted 

$1,310,592 just behind 

Hornsby with $1,479, 

386. 

No Sydney council 

came close to the 

City of Sydney, which 

amassed almost a 

quarter-of-a-million 

dollars in fines. 

The figures exclude 

millions dropped into 

parking meters, which 

netted the City of Sydney 

another $36.8 million 

. 

Amazingly the tiny 

Eastern Suburbs hamlet 

of Woollahra netted 

$5,087,352, a record 

for a council that faced 

a forced amalgamation 

because of a low revenue 

base. 

Parking fines have 

been an issue in the 

City of Ryde where 

rangers have reported 

threats of violence for 

issuing parking tickets 

which has prompted the 

council to invest money 

in security device protection 

for rangers. 

The NRMA said parking

Eastwood St Andrews FC 60th Anniversary 

Eastwood St Andrews FC celebrates the beautiful game 

AN EASTWOOD football club conceived in 1958 in the middle of 

the Indian Ocean is celebrating its 60th Anniversary this Saturday. 

St Andrews FC was 

the brainchild of the 

Lee family who came 

up with the idea of 

forming a community 

football club while on 

board the ocean liner 

S.S. Strathaird, enroute 

to Australia. 

The club was established 

in Eastwood 

as part of the Northern 

Districts Soccer 

Football Association, 

now known as the 

Gladesville Hornsby 

Football Association. 

Training and home 

games were at Meadowbank 

or Epping 

because the club’s 

iconic Eastwood Oval 

was still a swamp. 

Scotland was a 

superpower in world 

football in the 1950s 

and there were clubs 

around the world, 

including London’s 

Millwall FC, with ties 

Club Eastwood

member who recalled 

the days when boots 

were heavy and steelstudded, 

nets were a 

new invention and the 

few parents attending 

games were cajoled 

into various volunteer 

roles, from linesmen 

to laundry women. 

“This year we take 

time to reflect on the 

extraordinary work 

of the Lee family of 

Bertie, Clive, Nigel 

and Celia,” Clr Purcell 

said. 

“We celebrate Nigel 

Lee (pictured), in particular, 

for his enormous 

personal efforts 

in forming and growing 

one of the great 

local clubs.” 

In the 1950s, Rugby 

League was - by far 

- the most popular 

sport for boys and 

Rugby Union continued 

to hold sway 

in Sydney’s private 

school system. 

Fast forward 60 

years and football 

has eclipsed rival 

codes as the largest 

team sport for boys 

and girls, along with a 

barmy army of “soccer 

mums” and dads 

who shout encouragement 

from the 

sidelines. 

Clr Purcell believes 

football’s success 

comes down to the 

game’s flow - free 

from stoppages from 

scrums and line-outs 

and with fewer injuries 

- from which 

teamwork is rewarded 

with an often hardfought 

goal. 

Then there’s the 

simplicity - anyone 

who can kick a ball 

can enjoy playing 

football, while any 

rectangular patch can 

become a makeshift 

pitch. 

“Soccer - or football 

as it is formally 

known - is a game 

that encapsulates 

personal skill and 

team involvement,” 

he said. 

“It relies on players 

to work with each 

other and achieve 

more than the sum of 

their parts. 

“It is a beautiful game 

because, at its best, 

the passage of play 

as the ball is passed 

from one to the other, 

and finally in the back 

of the net, is sublime.” 

There’s also a special 

and universal cultural 

- some would 

say, tribal - community 

that has developed 

around football, uniting 

barefoot players 

on the beaches of Rio 

with those hacking the 

ball across ice-covered 

fields in Reykjavik. 

“It welcomes all from 

the community to pull 

on their team colours 

and share a common 

goal,” Clr Purcell said. 

“With great vision, 

soccer has been 

opened up to the 

youngest and the oldest 

in our community; 

catering for all ages 

and skill levels and it 

has done more. 

“Soccer has given 

ladies, young and old, 

the chance to play 

the game themselves 

in their own competitions 

or beside the 

boys if they choose. 

“As a coach I marvelled 

at how young 

women could match 

the boys and often 

outplay them.” 

Clr Purcell will be 

among the many past 

and present figures 

who will celebrate 

Eastwood St Andrews’ 

history on Saturday 

and also hopes 

it will be a day to celebrate 

what football 

has given the City of 

Ryde. 

“I wish to congratulate 

all the region’s 

soccer players, officials, 

committee 

members and involved 

spectators for making 

soccer what it is today 

in Australia, a beautiful 

game for all,” he 

said. 

“Our communities 

would be poorer 

places without sporting 

clubs and I take 

my hat off to all the 

tireless volunteers 

who help keep sports 

clubs operating and 

growing, week in and 

week out, year in and 

year out.”

Local optometrist helps fund 30 

operations using surgical robot 

MORE than $120,000 has been donated to Chris O’Brien Lifehouse from Specsavers Top 

Ryde, along with other stores around the state - funds which have been used to perform surgeries 

on 30 different patients using a state of the art surgical robot. 

The robot, which 

was the first of its kind 

to arrive in Australia, 

was bought by Chris 

O’Brien Lifehouse in 

December 2015 and 

costs $4000 for every 

surgery it’s used for. 

Chris O’Brien recently 

held a special 

breakfast event where 

Lifehouse CEO Eileen 

Hannagan spoke 

about how their contribution 

has been directly 

helping cancer 

patients at the centre. 

“We were the first 

hospital in the southern 

hemisphere to get 

a da Vinci Xi Dual Console 

Surgical System 

which we purchased 

for head and neck surgery,” 

said Eileen. funded by our hardship 

program. So 

“The surgical robot 

translates the hand community support 

movements of the enables these patients 

surgeon into precise to have life-changing 

movements of tiny, surgery.’

working inside the patient’s 

body,” she said. 

“This allows the surgeon 

to get down to 

the back of the tonsils 

or the throat to 

remove the tumours. 

The difference to patients 

is incredible. 

They’ve not been cut, 

they’ve not had their 

jaw broken, but they 

have had their tumour 

removed. 

“Many patients can 

pay, but the patients 

who can’t pay are 

thrilled to see the 

store’s donations have 

been put towards 

such a great cause. 

“Learning about this 

piece of technology 

was amazing,” she revealed. 

“The fact that 

it can perform much 

less invasive surgery 

on patients who are 

already experiencing 

a tough road after a 

cancer diagnosis is 

Chr~O'B ·

so important,” said 

Adrene. 

“I am very happy to 

learn our fundraising 

has gone to such a 

worthy cause.” 

When speaking 

about how much the 

operating costs are 

for the surgical robot, 

Eileen commented 

that ‘hospitals don’t 

make the kind of money 

we’d need to continue 

to let this kind of 

technology to run, it’s 

really the community 

support that enables 

that’. 

Gail O’Brien, wife of 

the late Chris O’Brien, 

was also present at

wanted to thank the 

store personally, 

‘We have come so far 

and we wouldn’t have 

got there without your 

support,” she said. 

“The funds have 

been donated over 

the past five years as 

part of the Specsavers

whereby Specsavers

WE are a family owned pharmacy offering the cheapest prices in 

West Ryde. 

I, Amal, began the 

business 18 years ago 

today and my son Dany 

has now continued the 

tradition in operating 

the pharmacy. 

We pride ourselves 

on saving you as much 

money as possible. 

Through the best discounts 

or through educating 

patients about 

the PBS system and 

your private health insurance, 

we at Amal’s 

New 

figures 

show 

boom in 

licence 

MACQUARIE Park’s 

Service NSW office 

has helped more than 

540,000 customers 

with licence and other 

registrations since it 

opened in September, 

2015 according to figures 

released by Ryde 

MP Victor Dominello 

this week. 

Mr Dominello said the 

latest figures show around 

3000 customers a week 

visit this service centre, 

which replaced the RTA office 

on Blaxland Road. 

“The Ryde Service Centre 

provides access to 

over 1000 transactions 

and services from over 40 

agencies across government 

including digital and 

face to face services, applications 

for photo cards, 

trade licences, driver testing 

and much more,” he 

said. 

“Service NSW continues 

to make it easier for customers 

and businesses in 

Ryde to access more services 

at one convenient 

will ensure you save. 

So confident are we 

about our pricing that I 

offer a price beat guarantee. 

If you find a cheaper 

price at a competitor, 

we will beat it by 5 per 

cent. All you have to do 

is prove it. 

Now my son has 

grown up he has a family 

with one boy and another 

boy on the way. 

He has taken a special 

location.” 

Mr Dominello was at the 

Macquarie Park office on 

Thursday where he congratulated 

staff on what he 

described as an impressive 

record of customer 

service. 

“Staff at this Service 

Centre continue to receive 

high levels of customer 

satisfaction that is tracking 

at an impressive 96 per 

cent.” 

“It is a testament to great 

customer service and their 

hard work.” 

The top three transactions 

this year have been 

driver licence renewals, 

registration renewals 

alongside knowledge and 

driving tests. 

“Service NSW is also a 

gateway to government 

savings and incentives 

which will ease the cost 

of living including the CTP 

Green Slip refunds,” he 

added. 

“More than 35,000 policyholders 

in the Ryde area 

have claimed over $2.7 

million in refunds.” 

Youth Opportunities 

Grant funding 

RYDE MP Victor 

Dominello is urging 

local youth organisations 

to apply for a 

share of $1.5 million 

Youth Opportunities 

grant funding. 

One-off grants between 

$10,000 and $50,000 are 

available to not-for-profit 

organisations and local 

councils for youth-led and 

youth-driven community 

projects. 

“Grants provided 

to local organisations 

will help young people 

to participate, engage 

and be included in our 

community,”Mr Dominello 

said. 

“Giving young people 

an opportunity to be part 

of youth-driven projects 

will not only help them develop 

individually, but it will 

help strengthen the community 

as a whole.” 

Minister responsible for 

Youth, Ray Williams said in 

this year’s funding round 

there will be an additional 

$400,000 available to benefit 

more young people. 

“I’m proud of the additional 

funding that will go 

a long way to support our 

young people reach their 

potential,” Mr Williams 

said. 

“Projects previously selected 

aim to upskill young 

people to provide them 

with greater opportunities 

for employment in a number 

of sectors, including 

hospitality, events planning 

or media.” 

Since the program was 

launched in 2012, Youth 

Opportunities has provided 

$9 million in funding to 

177 projects across NSW. 

Applications for grants 

under this year’s program 

close on Monday July 16.

“ 

Twelve years ago, I moved from a 3-bedroom house to my sunny, selfcontained 

home at Leisure Lea Gardens Retirement Village in Marsfield. 

My apartment overlooks our beautiful gardens and I have not regretted 

my decision for one moment. 

I was impressed on my very first visit by the friendly staff and lovely 

facilities. The staff are all warm, friendly and caring people who help 

me any time of the day or night. We also have an excellent dining-room 

which is a great benefit when I am feeling poorly (or lazy!) plus weekly 

activities and support services. 

I have made many friends here and if I had remained alone in my house 

my life would not be as full as it is today. If you are thinking of moving 

to a retirement village, please don’t wait until it’s too hard to adjust to the 

change.

JUNE 15 | WORLD ELDER ABUSE AWARENESS DAY 

Elder Abuse is definitely everyone’s business 

WORLD Elder Abuse Awareness Day (WEAAD) is commemorated 

each year on June 15 to highlight one of the 

worst manifestations of ageism and inequality in our society, 

elder abuse. 

Elder abuse is the 

physical, verbal and 

mental abuse of aged 

people and individuals 

and can include 

forced deprivation 

and the denial of basic 

rights and human 

dignity. 

No one risk factor 

Clf RMONT 

AG~ • CAR [ 

can explain or cause 

elder abuse. 

Despite this, the 

government notes 

that in the majority 

of instances where 

abuse is occurring, 

there is often a combination 

of risk factors 

that contribute to the 

abuse. 

It believes that being 

able to understand 

and identify risk 

factors can assist in 

alerting people to a 

situation that has the 

potential for abuse. 

People found to be 

at risk include those

who are socially and 

geographically isolated 

and lack connection 

from their neighbours, 

family and/or 

community and those 

who are dependent on 

others for their care. 

Those living in insecure 

or inadequate 

accommodation as 

well as those who lack 

capacity and ability 

to self advocate, or 

who may be confused 

about their property, 

bills, belongings and/ 

or surroundings are 

also at risk. 

Poor health and finances 

also contribute 

to the risk. 

The government has 

also profiled people at 

risk of committing elder 

abuse. 

The profile includes 

people who are 

stressed, burdened 

or feel resentful of 

the caring role, especially 

those who are 

dependent on the victim. 

People with a history 

of drug and alcohol 

abuse or have 

gambling and financial 

problems are also 

part of the profile. 

Migrant communities 

have experienced 

the incidence of elder 

abuse and the 

government profile 

identifies contributing 

cultural factors 

that include a lack of 

understanding of the 

Australian system as 

well as isolation from 

cultural activities or 

interaction. 

Although the extent 

of elder mistreatment 

is unknown, its social 

and moral significance 

is obvious. 

Individuals, communities, 

municipalities 

and organisations will 

come together across 

the globe to hold 

events on June 15 

that raise awareness 

of elder abuse. 

NSW Elder Abuse 

Helpline & Resource 

Unit encourages organisations 

to celebrate 

the positive 

contributions of older 

people in our communities. 

“Older people are 

essential in the fabric 

of our society. It’s time 

for us to acknowledge 

their importance and 

recognise they are 

entitled to the respect 

of their communities 

and especially their 

families,” a spokesperson 

said.

Abuse Helpline & Resource 

Unit on 1800

Hunters Hill family recalls an act 

of bravery on the Western Front 

A CARRIAGE pulls up outside an Edwardian house in London and from the fog a man limps out, steps into the carriage 

and he is whisked away to Buckingham Palace where he is met by King George V. 

The man is Ashley Sylvester 

Edds - the father 

of 87 year old Hunters Hill 

resident Beverley Anderson 

- and the king decorates 

him with the Military 

Medal for bravery at the 

Battle of Passchendaele 

on The Western Front in 

World War One. 

“The only thing dad ever 

told us about his act of 

bravery is that he captured 

a concrete German 

bunker and that the Germans 

were bayoneted,” 

Beverley Anderson said. 

“The only other thing he 

told me is that there were 

70 miles of trenches occupied 

by the Germans 

and that they could communicate 

with each other 

by wireless. 

“Dad was a man who 

kept the horror of the war 

to himself, he didn’t have 

any mates and he never 

attended the Anzac Day 

marches.” 

Beverely Anderson 

owns her father’s Military 

Medal and has it framed 

alongside a copy of a gazette 

which mentions her 

father in dispatches. 

She has his wartime 

photograph and a few 

private clippings which 

include a poem written by 

his mother to commend 

his bravery. 

“I never learned how 

dad was wounded but it 

was on July 3rd in 1917,” 

she said. 

“I found out he enlisted 

at the age of sixteeen in 

the township of Rutherford 

and served with the 

9th Machine Gun Company 

of the 9th Brigade of 

the AIF. 

“He was at Passchendaele 

when 66,000 allied 

soldiers were killed in a 

single week and where 

many soldiers and just as 

many horses were left to 

die when they fell in the 

deep mud of the battlefield.” 

Strange stories also 

came to light during Beverley 

Anderson’s research 

which reveal why the Anzac 

Day ode about “the 

going down of the sun” is 

particularly poignant. 

“The fighting stopped 

when the sun went down 

and it got dark and then 

stray animals would roam 

No Mans Land .. where 

they were rescued and 

fed .. but at 6am, as soon 

as the sun rose, fighting 

would commence again 

until nightfall.” 

Ashley Edds was employed 

as a commercial 

travellor after the war 

when he would travel by 

train with sample cases of 

menswear. 

He also served as an 

air raid warden in Sydney 

during World War Two. 

“We lived in Rose Bay, 

which was an emu farm 

back then and he would 

go on patrol around the 

Vaucluse area telling people 

to put their lights out,” 

she said. 

“I remember that he was 

very frightened about a 

Japanese invasion and 

wanted us to move to the 

country but mum said no, 

we’d stick it out here.” 

She looks at her father’s 

wartime photograph as a 

lad of 16 years and wishes 

she had asked him to 

share more about his wartime 

experience. 

“He did say that when 

he enlisted all the boys 

thought it would be a 

great adventure.. if only 

they knew what awaited 

them.” 

“Today I want his 

achievement and his bravery 

to be remembered by 

our younger generations 

and what gives me heart 

is to read the wonderful 

wartime stories that John 

F Booth writes in The 

Weekly Times.” 

Ashley Edds is buried in 

St John’s Church in Pymble 

but his name lives on 

within the family. 

“One of our grandchildren 

is named Ashley, after 

dad,” she said. 

Beverley Anderson is pictured with Ashley Edds’ war medals and top right his 

war time photograph.

Eastwood grandmother recognised 

for her family and community work 

AN Eastwood grandmother with a passion for supporting families and building communities has 

been awarded an OAM in this year’s Queen’s Birthday Honours List. 

Uniting Church Reverend Marion 

Gledhill OAM received her award 

for service to the Uniting Church in 

Australia and to social welfare. 

She told The Weekly Times she 

is delighted to receive the award 

which she said she shared with her 

husband Malcolm and the teams of 

people she has worked with during 

many decades of service. 

“For as long as I can remember 

my Christian faith has emphasised 

we are here to serve others and that 

has certainly been the driving force 

in my life,” she said 

“Family life has particularly been 

very foundational in my own life, at 

a personal level and at a community 

level.” 

Her Vice Regal citation recognises 

her work in Uniting Church in Australia 

as Convenor of Advisors for 

Complaints of Sexual Misconduct 

(New South Wales Synod) as well 

as being a Member of the Board for 

Social Responsibility with the New 

South Wales Synod. 

It also recognises her work as a 

Uniting World volunteer, with the 

Methodist Church of Fiji (2013 to 

2015) and more recently as a Coordinator 

of English Classes with the 

Uniting Church in Eastwood. 

“In some English classes we have 

up to 100 students,” she said. 

“We have many grand parents 

from a Chinese speaking background 

and with the older generation 

it is very hard to learn a second

language but I believe we are lucky 

to have a Chinese community in 

Eastwood because it makes Eastwood 

a vibrant community.” 

Reverend Gledhill served as a 

Deacon with Uniting Care Burnside 

from 2001 to 2005 and with Tamil 

and Tongan congregations. 

Ordained in 2001, she held the 

position of Executive Officer with 

the Family Support Services Association 

of New South Wales from 

1987 to 1997 and was a Member of 

Community Services Grants Program 

Advisory Committee. 

Her work for families has also seen 

her serve on the Advisory Board of 

Home Care Service of New South 

Wales and with Christian Community 

Aid in Eastwood. 

In West Ryde she helped establish 

the West Ryde Family Support Service 

and she served as a manager of 

Ryde Family Support Service. 

The contribution she has made to 

family life saw her appointed as a 

committee member on the International 

Year of the Family Council for 

New South Wales in 1994. 

Many families will remember her 

personal support and encouragement 

in times of need. 

“We have worked with families 

who found it very difficult to cope, 

in situations were there was domestic 

violence and even people 

contemplating suicide,” she said. 

Reverend Gledhill has also devoted 

many hours to training people 

to carry on this important work. 

“With the people we chose, we 

chose them for their personal qualities 

as well as their academic qualifications 

and I’ve always strongly 

believed the role is a balance of 

personal qualities and professional 

skills.” 

Malcolm stressed his wife’s commitment 

to building communities. 

“So much of what Marion has 

done has been done to build communities 

and she has made many 

sacrifices and, at times, she has 

had to be very brave,” he said. 

“The Methodist Church is Fiji has 

as an emblem a boat in a stormy 

sea and this image powerfully represents 

the challenges so many 

Christians have and do encounter.” 

Marion said one of her greatest, 

personal, challenges has been to 

balance her Christian commitments 

with her role as a wife and 

mother. 

“We now have six wonderful 

grand children and now I’m retired 

my hope for the future is that one 

day we’ll have a world community 

where we see each other as brothers 

and sisters.” 

The Reverend Gledhill acknowledged 

the on-going support of The 

Weekly Times Managing Editor 

John F Booth AM. 

“The Weekly Times has been 

very important and it is wonderful 

the way Mr Booth supports us 

when we need support.”

HUNTERS HILL poker machine magnate Len Ainsworth AM has described 

his Queens Birthday Award as simply a case of sharing his 

luck with others. 

Ninety five year old Mr 

Ainsworth was recognised 

with an AM for significant 

service to business 

and manufacturing 

as well as to the community 

through philanthropic 

contributions. 

The founder of the 

world famous Aristocrat 

poker machines in 1953, 

Mr Ainsworth has donated 

millions to charity and 

has inspired generations 

of Australian exporters. 

“I’ve been very fortunate 

in life, very lucky 

with more than 1,500 

great people working for 

me.” 

Much of Mr Ainsworth’s 

contributions have been 

in the medical profession 

and his support for 

Sydney Children’s Hospital 

saw it name the new 

Ainsworth Building after 

him in 2013. 

“I’ve got my name on a 

lot of buildings in a lot of 

places because they ask 

me if there is anything 

they can ever do to thank

me, so I just say, I don’t 

know .. name a building 

after me or something. 

“I think anyone with 

seven sons would be 

fond of children and appreciate 

the work of the 

Childrens Hospital.” 

Mr Ainsworth built his 

career on his father’s 

work as a dentist making 

dental equipment and his 

first poker machine was 

an iconic two up machine 

he created in the 1950s 

called Two Up. 

“My father always complained 

I turned his hobby 

into a successful business 

and we were quite 

successful in the export 

market,” he said. 

“I’ve always been a 

successful exporter and 

if you have a product 

worth exporting you can 

make a lot more than you 

can in Australia, but no 

one lays out a red carpet 

for you overseas if you’re 

a competitor.” 

The Ainsworth family is 

one of Britain’s first exports 

to Hunters Hill. 

“The orginal Ainsworth 

came here in 1831 and 

two of his houses are still 

standing, his father was 

a saddler in Birmingham 

and he came here with 

a bit of money behind 

him.” 

Mr Ainsworth said he 

has made Hunters Hill 

his home because of “the 

peace and quiet here” 

but also appreciates the 

heritage municipality’s 

close association with 

the art scene. 

“We are heavily involved 

in art and with 

poker machines you 

would be surprised at the 

number of artists we employ, 

it is a huge industry 

and Sydney and Nevada 

and among the few places 

where they make machines.” 

His advice to exporters 

is to be “brave and dedicated” 

and he believes 

that if you have good 

fortune in life, you should 

share it.

A new lease on life at Leisure Lea Gardens 

FINDING the right retirement village for a parent can be 

a daunting experience and most often the children have 

to do most of the research. 

There are many 

excellent villages to 

choose from but the 

best way to decide is 

to attend an Open Day 

and ask the residents 

lots of questions. 

Juliet Morrell, sales 

consultant at Leisure 

Lea Gardens in Marsfield, 

says she works 

closely with residents 

to showcase the village 

on Open Days 

and encourages them 

to speak candidly to 

visitors about their 

experiences. 

“Our village manager 

Linda Savige and 

her team, work very 

hard to achieve resident 

satisfaction and 

happy residents refer 

their friends so we 

have a high rate of referrals 

at this village.” 

Juliet says the residents 

aren’t the only 

ones who were satisfied. 

“We regularly receive 

letters from happy 

family members and 

it’s really rewarding 

for all the staff.” 

Trish Walker, daughter 

of new resident 

Jean Mellor, says her 

only regret is that her 

mum did not make 

the move earlier. 

“My Mum is an active, 

independent 90 

plus-year-old who has 

always lived in her 

own unit on the third 

floor of a building 

without a lift. Early in 

January we decided 

to have a look around 

at options, with no 

real intention of doing 

anything soon. 

A conversation with 

Juliet at Leisure Lea 

Gardens and a stroll 

through the complex 

really set us thinking. 

The unit was lovely 

and the view of the 

gardens was peaceful 

and enticing. 

“After four days of 

soul-searching Mum 

decided to make 

the move - a heart 

wrenching decision 

after nearly 42 years

A RARE opportunity has arisen to purchase the Adwill Place shopping arcade located a 

22-26 Blenheim Road North Ryde comprising of nine shops with six long term tenants all 

of current registered lease agreements. 

Historically, the area famous Australian war heroes 

was an army depot for vehicles 

with a variety of local business 

around Blenheim Road was 

known as the War Service 

settlement area with the 

street names named after 

VC winners such as 

Cutler, Edmondson, Betty 

Hendry. 

During the war, the area 

and tanks. The Arcade 

was built and opened for 

business in 1965 and has 

served the local community 

for over 53 years. 

The property last changed 

hands in 1999. 

Current Council Zoning is 

Investment loans: a closer look 

THE higher rate applied 

to interest only 

(IO) loans has become 

frustrating for 

those who’ve taken 

the IO option on an 

investment to concentrate 

on quickly 

reducing bad debt 

on the home loan 

they service with 

after-tax dollars. 

We’ve been asked 

to explore this and 

find a solution - the 

banks systems are 

not designed to help 

you save you on tax, 

but it’s one of our 

specialties at iChoice. 

Many iChoice clients 

have recently 

changed their investment 

loans to principle 

and interest (P&I) 

just to get the better 

rate. 

The Barefoot Broker 

But to neutralise this 

seemingly-imperfect 

structure, we set the 

limit a little higher to 

allow surplus funds to 

sit in their ‘Investment 

offset account’. 

That’s designed to 

gradually soak up the 

increas ed monthly 

debit, allowing their 

‘effective debt’ to remain 

the same over 

time in their P&I loan, 

as if it were IO. 

If you’re still with 

me at this point, it’s 

because you’re in 

precisely in that situation. 

So the million dollar 

question is: Can we 

capitalise the interest 

charged on our investment 

loans? That 

is, can we allow the 

debt on our investment 

loans to increase, 

or capitalise - yes, get 

bigger - whilst we concentrate 

on reducing 

our bad debt? 

Luckily, I read a few 

books on Australian 

property taxation whilst 

I was on holidays in 

Bali last year (but only 

in the afternoons when 

it was raining). 

Feel free to use the 

following detail to 

bamboozle accountant 

types. 

TD 2008/27 clearly 

states that capitalised 

interest (the interest on 

with Jason Khoury 

the interest) 

is absolutely 

tax-deductible. 

But how do 

you avoid the 

ATO’s infamous 

Part IV 

pulling this 

apart? 

Even though 

Private Ruling 

PBR69725 

assures us 

wages aren’t 

required to 

prop up negatively-geared 

investments, 

can we shift 

the rental income 

towards 

our home too? 

Yes - with 

some clearcut 

requirements, 

all 

hinging on the 

‘purpose’ of 

such a structure 

and how 

it’s worded. 

Such a powerful 

strategy, 

yet - whilst all 

very grey (like 

most of our 

Aussie legislation) 

- a few 

key structural 

elements need 

to be adopted. 

B1- Neighbourhood Centre. 

Under the current zoning 

the property has future 

development potential if 

amalgamated with adjacent 

properties for construction 

of Commercial 

& Residential housing all 

subject to local Council 

approval. 

Set on three lots the land 

has a total area of 663 

ADVERTISEMENT 

square metres of land with 

rear lane access. 

The property is located in 

the heart of North Ryde as 

part of a busy retail shopping 

strip with a mixture 

of retail and professional 

businesses with high traffic 

volume visual exposure. 

An opportunity is available 

for astute investors 

/ self-managed superannuants 

seeking a solid incomes 

stream plus future 

capital growth with the 

redevelopment potential in 

this thriving suburb. Close 

to Epping Road, North 

Ryde CBD and high density 

new apartment developments.

What can you do in this changing market? 

• Cash up your investment before it shrinks. If the market will be weaker 

as predicted, hold the cash for other opportunities. 

• Return on property depends on the rental yield and capital growth. Do 

your sums to see if the negative gearing strategy is good enough to 

keep it going. 

• Your lifestyle is important to you. This is a great chance to upgrade your 

home. 

• In a slow market like this, it is easy to predict your next move whether 

buying or selling. It may appear that vendor gets less when selling. 

However you will have a greater bargaining power when you make your 

offer. 

• There is fantastic opportunity in a shifting market when you move fast.

Honours for Tennyson’s AOC 

life member Helen Brownlee 

QUEEN’S BIRTHDAY HONOURS 

EXPERIENCED campaigners Lorna Humphreys, Shirley Leabeater and Ivy Hitchens were recently 

crowned North Ryde RSL Women’s Bowling Club Triples Champions for 2018. In a hard fought final, 

the trio defeated Pat Ferris June Bax and Elaine Marsden to claim the title. Ivy ‘s next challenges 

are in the Champion of Champion Singles Championship to be staged on June 26 at Ettalong Bowling 

Club and then on to the Region Singles Play off at Northmead BC on July 12. 

AUSTRALIAN Olympic Committee Vice President Helen Brownlee OAM 

of Tennyson Point has been awarded Member in the General Division (AM) 

in the Order of Australia honours. 

BRUSH Park Women’s Bowling Club recently celebrated its Macquarie District No 4 Pennants 

championship triumph with the unfurling and raising of the flag. Club President Emma Leermakers 

raised the flag, assisted by District president Evelyn Redaelli. Pictured l to r are triumphant lawn 

bowlers Joy Brannagan, Milly Farrell, Patrice Nealon, Emma Leermakers, Marie McNulty, Maria 

Armstrong, Elizabeth Bell and Margaret Pollard. 

The decorated Brownlee 

was again recognised 

for significant service to 

sports administration, to 

women as an advocate 

for greater participation in 

sport and to the Olympic 

movement. 

She has devoted more 

than 50 years to canoeing 

as a competitor, judge 

and administrator and 

is the first woman to be 

awarded Life Membership 

of the Australian Olympic 

Committee. 

Helen was also the first 

woman elected to the 

AOC executive board and 

in 2013 became the vice 

president. 

She has also served as 

the president of the NSW 

Olympic Council. 

Shortly before being 

inducted into The Sport 

Australia Hall of Fame in 

2015 she was awarded 

the Olympic Order for her 

significant contribution to 

world sport and her dedication 

to upholding the 

Olympic ideals. 

Brownlee started in 

competitive canoeing 

as a teenager under the 

guidance of her father Os 

Brownlee, who was one 

of the founding members 

of Australian canoeing. 

Her paddling took her 

from river touring to sprint 

competition and to slalom 

and wildwater disciplines. 

She won medals at State, 

national and international 

levels including Australia’s 

first international slalom 

medal. 

She was a judge at the 

1972 Munich and 1988 

Seoul Olympic Games 

and a member of the competition 

jury at the 1992, 

1996 and 2000 Olympic 

Games. A groundbreaker 

for women in sports administration, 

she worked 

her way up to become 

president of the Australian 

Canoe Federation, a 

position she held for 14 

years, and was given Life 

Membership. 

She is a director of the 

International Canoe Federation, 

president of the 

Commonwealth Canoe 

Federation and the Oceania 

Canoe Federation, 

chair of the Oceania National 

Olympic Commit- 

tion she has held since 

oured by the International 

Olympic Committee for 

her work in education 

and invited to become 

a member of the IOC 

Commission for Culture 

and Olympic Education. 

A strong advocate for 

the involvement of more 

women in sport, in 2002 

she was awarded the IOC 

Women and Sport Trophy 

of Oceania and in 2010 

was Inducted into the

Around the Clubs, Sport & Entertainment 

Golf whiz Sahara,11 

a weapon on course 

BY CHRIS KARAS 

A FRACTURED foot wasn’t enough to break golfing-prodigy 

Sahara Hillman-Varma’s stride at the 2018 Sydney North 

PSSA Golf Squad tryouts at Warringah Golf Club last week. 

Despite being 

encumbered by a 

hefty knee-high 

moonboot, while 

her metatarsal 

fracture heals, the 

11-year-old Hunters 

Hill Public School 

student (pictured) 

truly lived up to 

her nickname “The 

Weapon” by taking 

out equal first place 

in the girl’s division 

and placing second 

overall in a field of 

Under 14s girls and 

boys from schools 

across the Sydney 

North region. 

Doctors had originally 

told Sahara she 

would have to sit out 

of this year’s Public 

Schools Sports Association 

(PSSA) golf 

tournament after she 

broke her foot in May. 

But the Year 6 student 

refused to take 

this grim diagnosis 

lying down, her characteristic 

focus and 

determination seeing 

her once again gain 

a spot on the Sydney 

North Golf Squad. 

Sahara, an 18 marker, 

is quickly making 

a name for herself on 

the Australian golfing 

circuit. 

The Concord Golf 

Club prodigy represented 

Australia 

at the US Kids Golf 

World Championships 

in Pinehurst, 

North Carolina in 

August last year and 

clinched the silver 

medal at the Pacific 

School Games in Adelaide 

last December. 

Sahara started her 

golfing career at the 

age of nine, playing 

out of Barnwell Park 

Five Dock before 

honing her skills under 

Chris Willard at 

Concord Golf Club. 

The schoolgirl whiz 

has performed with 

distinction at Jack 

Newton Junior Golf 

Classic events and 

showed her potential 

when she won 

the Peter O’Malley 

Junior Masters tournament 

in Bathurst 

earlier this year and 

finished second at 

the U/14s PSSA Harvey 

Norman Week of 

Golf. 

Sahara’s now back 

in training and looking 

forward to competing 

for a spot on 

the NSW Golf Squad 

at the 2018 NSW 

PSSA Golf Championships 

at Studley 

Park Golf Club, Narellan 

on September 

18.

record of 58.9 secs was 

broken. 

Fraser also won six 

Commonwealth Games 

gold medals and during 

her illustrious swimming 

career held 39 records. 

Post swimming, Fraser 

became a publican at 

the Riverview Hotel in
