PROTECTING GEELONG’S VITAL PORTThe Victorian Regional Channels Authority is using cutting-edge technology to help keep Geelong’s thriving port and busy shipping channels safe and effi cient now and in the future.

The authority knows ships in industries using the Port of Geelong will grow in size and cargo throughput will increase substantially over the coming decades. The port, the largest in regional Victoria, is a major economic performer for the state and generates billions of dollars for the region by handling more than 16 million gross tonnes of cargo a year and supporting about 5000 local jobs.

The VRCA is planning and investing heavily in strategies to ensure it will be smooth sailing on Corio Bay’s waters for the next 20 years to keep the vital port competitive. And that planning involves use of the latest equipment to boost navigation safety, maximise effi ciency and address infrastructure problems before they arise.

The high-tech approach includes:

INSTALLING new navigation beacons with solar-powered lights. The 78 “intelligent lights’’ lining the channel system can ‘talk’ to each other, synchronise their fl ash patterns and email alarms to the Harbour Master.

INSTALLING advanced wind and tide gauges, a sophisticated laser docking device at the refi nery berths, new radio communication equipment and a new automatic ship identifi cation system.

PRODUCING a computer simulation program to identify potential improvements that will be needed to cope with a predicted commodity surge at the port in the next two decades.

AND piloting ‘virtual vessels’ to investigate how Geelong’s channels will cope with the next generation of larger shipsso the authority can work on strategies to address any future challenges ahead of time.

VRCA chief executive offi cer Captain Peter McGovern says as the port’s stakeholders and visiting ships continue to evolve, the authority must ensure the channel system it manages remains clear and maintained so all vessels can be confi dent of a safe and effi cient passage in and out of Geelong at all times. It recorded more than 1400 ship movements last year.

The VRCA, which is working with port stakeholders on a Port Development Strategy, is closely involved in most regional business organisations including the Geelong Chamber of Commerce, Committee for Geelong, G21 Regional Alliance and Geelong Manufacturing Council. G5977385AA-a1May©FCNVIC

Vivienne Browne openly admits there was a certain amount of luck involved in establishing and making a success of Scotchmans Hill.

Browne says she and her husband, David, started planting the vines in 1982 because they thought they would look attractive surrounding their house on the Bellarine Peninsula.

“We honestly didn’t think about whether they would even grow there,” she says.

“We really didn’t have a clue.”Browne understands why some people may

think operating a little vineyard is romantic, she says, because that’s exactly how she and David saw it.

“We were the worst of all,” she says laughing.“I thought, ‘This is going to be wonderful.

There is going to be a bit of work, but not much, and we can look out onto rows and rows of vines’.

“It certainly never ever dawned on me that one day those grapes would get squashed and go into a bottle and we’d have to do something with it. And that’s what you have to do to keep it going.”

The family employed people to manage the vineyard, production and sales until, Browne says, their accountant told them that they weren’t paying enough attention to the business and “it really wasn’t viable”.

That’s when she decided to get involved, as David

was working long hours as a stockbroker in Melbourne. “I came into the business knowing absolutely nothing,” says Browne, a former ballet dancer and, at the time, a stay-at-home mum to their three children.

Browne says she took “five big green garbage bags” filled with paperwork from the manager’s cottage and up-ended them onto the floor of a bedroom. She then

phoned a friend.“I rang Bernie Murphy (now deceased), who owned the Geelong West newsagency, and asked him what I should do,” she says.

“Bernie said, ‘I know just the person’. That person was Richard Carr, who was just out of university and working at his father’s

accounting firm. Richard showed me how to create a ledger.

“That would have been about 1988-’89. It took me about a month to get through it all. It was such a challenge. But I just kept thinking, ‘I can’t make it any worse’.”

It was a couple of years later, Browne says, when she noticed they weren’t selling much. So she sold her sports car and bought a four-wheel-drive, which “could hold 42 cases of wine with the back seats down”.

Five days a week she would travel to Melbourne and sell the wine out of the back of the car.

She says she had picked up the names of places that

were stocking the wine from the previous salesperson. “The first day I ended up at a brothel in Drummond Street, Carlton, called Butterfly. I will never forget it,” she says.

“But I just learnt that selling is really just about enjoying people and being genuinely interested in their business.

“If you don’t have that passion for being with people and talking about your product, then it’s never going to work.”

She puts the success of Scotchmans Hill, which now boasts 10 labels, down to listening to customers.

In the early days, she says, she would say to clients: “You’ve got to help me here, I’m building this business. What is it that you don’t like? What do you think we can improve on?

“Gradually, over nearly 30 years, we’ve evolved into what we are today.”

Browne says there isn’t one particular achievement that she can remember celebrating in that time.

“I think the whole thing has surpassed my expectations, to be truthful.” \

Perched on the end of Cunningham pier, the city skyline as a backdrop and sweeping views of Corio Bay and the You Yangs beyond, it’s almost impossible not to be impressed with Cameron Ling’s “office”.

The former Geelong footballer is now kicking goals as part-owner of the EMC Group’s stable of hospitality venues, including The Pier, Baveras and City Quarter on Cunningham pier, Edge Geelong on the waterfront, and the Gold Diggers Arms in Newtown.

Quality food has always been a part of this Geelong-born-and-bred boy’s life.

“When I was young we didn’t dine out a lot, as mum is a really good cook and dad’s pretty decent with the barbecue, but when we did dine out we always wanted to have a nice experience,” he says.

“Obviously it is enjoyable when you are with good people where you can talk, have fun and feel comfortable and relaxed,” he says, recalling his early dining out experiences. “Along with good food and service, it became clear which experiences you walked away from having enjoyed, versus those that weren’t worth going out for.”

Ling readily admits that his diet was a bit restricted during his a high-profile football career, but he says it was still a priority to eat good quality food.

As we chat over a juice at Baveras, it also becomes obvious that Ling has a bit of a sweet tooth, as he eyes off the restaurant’s cake display.

“I love my ice-cream and I’m a big fan of vanilla slices – the ones we have here are amazing! One of those when you’re playing footy isn’t a problem. Everything’s all right in moderation, but you just can’t sit there and eat a block of chocolate all the time.

“As long as you ate lots of fresh food and limited the fattier stuff, you could just train a bit harder to keep the dreaded skinfold test in check. Also, if you had a vanilla slice every day, it would make it less special anyway.”

Ling is enthusiastic about his foray into the hospitality industry, emphasising it was a well considered business decision. He didn’t want to succumb to the old cliché of a footballer buying a pub – and he insists he’s in it for the long haul.

It helps, he says, that he has some highly experienced business partners. “Managing director Darren Holroyd has been in hospitality for about 25 years and has also had Lamby’s for about 13 years now, so he has a lot of experience in the local industry.

Ling has been involved with Edge Geelong since 2008, when he was still playing football. “At that stage it was great to have something else to concentrate on, as football is all-consuming and it’s nice to have another focus to get away from it.

“The Pier opened at the end of 2010 and we took on the Diggers hotel at a similar time, around mid-2010, closing it for a couple of months for renovations to freshen it up before reopening.”

The complex on the pier was the group’s biggest and most exciting project, following nearly seven years of searching for a suitable location. Comprising The Pier function centre, Baveras restaurant and City Quarter bar, it offers a wide range of options for various uses.

With the location and layout right, the partners could start adding elements they could control: really good

food, drinks and service, and an atmosphere that would give customers an enjoyable and memorable experience.

While Ling can’t be hands-on in the business every day because of all his media commitments, he’s proud that, with an experienced and knowledgable management and staff, the business is in good hands.

“When I got into the business with the Pier and Baveras and it came to giving my two cents’ worth on food, my view was that I wanted quality, fresh ingredients but not too fancy. Let the produce speak for itself. I enjoy a nice glass of red but I don’t claim to be an expert in that area, so I rely on others to do that. But I think we’ve got some pretty impressive wine lists across the businesses.

“You want to sit down to a good meal and not feel stuffed to the gills after it; you need to be satisfied but also not walking away hungry. I think that’s what we’ve achieved in each of the places: really good quality, simple food, that’s tasty, pulls the eye and you walk away loving it – a nice setting and a couple of cold drinks, which hopefully make for a really good experience.

“Especially down on the waterfront, you can’t beat sitting here looking out over the water and appreciating how it has become so vibrant.”

Ling is passionate about promoting his home town to locals and visitors. He says many people barely know this part of the world exists, as they take the ring road and just keep going. But those who are discovering Geelong love it and keep coming back.

“I spend a bit of time in Melbourne with work and I invited a few of the Channel Seven guys down here for lunch to see Baveras. They now bring their families down, stay here and discover more and more about Geelong, which keeps bringing them back.

“They tell me, after coming to Geelong’s waterfront for the first time, that they never knew it was so beautiful and they enjoy coming here all the time now – that’s great to hear.”

While he tries to have a family meal at one of the venues each week, away from the business, Ling says he and his partner Nicole share the cooking at home. She is more creative, he says, while he is a simpler cook, following on from his playing days when he cooked pastas, stir fries and rice for the carbohydrates before the game.

However, using quality fresh fruit and vegies is always on top of the agenda and, while he doesn’t grow his own, he says he sometimes ducks around to his parents’ place

to pinch a few beautiful fresh vegies from their garden. With the foundations of the business now settled in

after a couple of years trading, Ling and his partners are starting to look at other ways of showcasing the whole Geelong area.

“The beauty of the waterfront is phenomenal. The fact that we’ve got big grass areas where you can come and spend time with the family, or walk along the foreshore from Rippleside or Limeburners Point, we should continue growing and promoting it, as the more people discover it, the more they will come and enjoy it.

“We also want to attract some good acts, singers and entertainers to our venues. We have so much local talent to be proud of. We had the girls from the Sweethearts at Matthew Flinders college playing at a fund-raising gig here and also at City Quarter, such talented girls, incredible voices and playing instruments so competently.

“There’s so much creativity in Geelong. We’ve had art shows upstairs and open mike nights to showcase local talent. So we hope to keep growing all those types of things.”

The next exciting event the group has planned is a weekend showcase of local wine and food producers on July 13 and 14.

“In conjunction with Otway Tourism and the local wineries we are going to have an expo, breaking up the Geelong wines into their subregions of Surf Coast, Moorabool Valley and Anakie, and the Bellarine, together with produce from each area.

“There will be a degustation dinner on the Saturday night showcasing the local wines and produce, and on the Sunday we’ll have the expo at The Pier with a special guest celebrity chef, Poh Ling Yeow.”

One thing’s for sure, Ling’s dedication to his home town is obvious: “Geelong. I won’t be moving too far. I really love it.” \

CAfé Ingrid Mamone can’t talk because she’s finishing off a

very important vanilla slice – a slice that loyal customers always expect. Good cakes and coffee are the magic combination at Black Cup Café in East Geelong.

The café turned one in mid-April and Mamone is surprised that her first venture has taken off so quickly. With 20 years’ experience in the food industry, she was keen to open a good café.

She spent more than three years looking for the right place and another five months renovating the building, which operated as a milk bar for 57 years. In a nod to former times, Mamone held a 90th birthday celebration for the milk bar owner a few weeks ago in the café.

Mamone loves to bake and 90 per cent of the cakes are made on the premises. Lunch can be busy and as well as the paninis, quiches and interesting salads on offer, specials such as open lamb souvlaki and house-made soups are popular.

As the name of the café suggests, coffee is an important part of the mix at Black Cup. Mamone took a long time to settle on a blend for the café – a custom-made one roasted by CoffeeSnobs.

bAristA Like many students, Geelong local Evita

Lopez started to work as a barista during a university course. One day she realised she was enjoying her work more than her study so she ditched her books for a coffee machine.

Five years later, she’s still enthusiastic. “We have loyal customers here,” she says.

“It really makes it a pleasure to work with friendly people.”

Lopez says their special CoffeeSnobs blend is stronger than usual and has great body. Each coffee has a double ristretto as its base. Her own favourite brew is a mocha – she has a secret sweet tooth.

Café owner Mamone did an intensive tasting session with local

roaster Andy Freeman where she cupped 24 different coffees, commenting on each before settling on the final blend.

“I wanted to produce a coffee that people were going to love.”

Mamone and Freeman are tight-lipped about the blend, saying only that it comprises beans from numerous equatorial regions. With spicy and earthy tones and some fruit flavours, it has excellent body and stands up well in milk. \

I’d hazard a guess that if chef James White swapped Scorched dining room for a backyard tent, people would still make a booking. Why? Because his food

is exhilarating, a mix of rustic Middle Eastern dishes catapulted into the New World by clever cooking techniques and crafty flourishes. It’s not over-thought either. Each one of the 19 share dishes on the menu is simply served on brown plates in a manner that says “eat me”, not just “photograph me”.

The roasted red pepper and walnut dip, muhammara, is case in point. A chunky textural delight, bright with lemon juice and labna, it arrives flattened in a perfect circle and crowned with pops of pomegranate, crunchy walnuts and dainty micro-herbs. It works, beautifully slathered on complimentary sticks of sesame-crusted Zeally Bay sourdough with a spirited dukkah made in-house.

A lone, golden salt-cod croquette is another of the smaller dishes. It’s feathery and moist and arrives with a sprinkling of sea salt atop and a thick, lemony aioli that you can’t help but drive the croquette through, formula one style.

Even baked molten haloumi is given White’s pared back and considered treatment. A combination of sweet, juicy raisins and lightly roasted pine nuts spooned atop, slices through the saltiness of the cheese.

It’ll come as no surprise that it can be hard to secure a table at this contemporary restaurant on Torquay’s esplanade. Before purchasing Scorched in 2009, owners White and Vanessa Joachim had built a following at Bellbrae Harvest, where White mixed Asian-inspired dishes into the Middle Eastern mix. The Asian influence has been left behind but the duo’s following has swelled.

White and Joachim gave the restaurant a good scrub when they first bought it but otherwise haven’t altered the dining room since its inception in 2005. It’s beginning to show. During the day, the décor can look jaded and the colour-palate muted, but glimpses of the ocean and towering Norfolk pines through floor-to-ceiling windows are a welcome distraction.

Joachim heads-up the front of house and I’m yet to see her cheery face wane. She’s instilled equal measures of professionalism, knowledge and fun into the staff; so much so we relinquish all decision-making to our waitress during a pulsating Saturday night service.

We aren’t disappointed. Ribbons of cured beef bastourma are subtle and butter

soft. They’re twisted to form a mini-mountain that covers a salad of heirloom tomatoes, ripped basil and whipped ricotta. It’s a lesson in simplicity that shines.

Pulled from the weightier part of the menu, a salad of roasted cauliflower heads comes tossed through a mix of toasted almonds, currants, and sumac. A generous dollop of tahini yoghurt with sumac crowns the mound and works wonderfully alongside a spicy local pinot noir that lands in my glass soon after.

A tangle of fresh figs, freekeh, ripped parsley and

barberry serves as a palate cleanser alongside rich slow-roasted lamb that collapses and shreds under the slightest fork pressure. My only complaint would be that I want more.

The fattoush salad is a knock-out. A combination of chopped and brilliantly flavoured tomato, cucumber, parsley and mint, and crushed lavoche for crunch, it is finished with a scattering of sumac and a dressing heavy with lemon. I would return for the salad alone.

Fittingly, desserts are light and bright. There’s a trifle with berries, rosewater labna and jelly; a coconut granita and lime with watermelon and strawberry salad; or a selection of cheeses. But our waitress has a more decadent finale for us.

wearable art \ An exhibition at the National Wool Museum celebrates top fashion design, writes MICHELLE HAMER

Merino wool is developing a reputation on international catwalks as an ideal medium for high fashion design.

The Future Wool Exhibition, on show at Geelong’s National Wool Museum as part of the L’Oréal Melbourne Fashion Festival, showcases some of the world’s best examples of wearable woollen art.

It’s an appropriate exhibition to be held in the city once dubbed the “wool centre of the world”. Sheep farming was established in the Geelong region in 1835 and the first wool mills opened in 1868.

From its opening in 1988, the National Wool Museum has celebrated this past and looked to the future of wool from its home in a former wool store in the centre of the city. The museum, which marks

its 25th anniversary this year, is the only one of its kind in Australia.

The Future Wool Exhibition, which runs until May 19, features 34 garments entered in the Woolmark Company’s International Woolmark Prize and include work

from designers in China, the US and Australia. According to Geelong

councillor Michelle Heagney, who holds

Designers flock to exhibition

the arts and culture portfolio, the exhibition is a celebration of world-class fashion design.

“(It) brings to the Geelong audience an awe-inspiring collection of design interpretations in merino wool,” Cr Heagney said.

She said the exhibition featured the creations of young cutting-edge fashion designers who worked exclusively with wool, and featured a variety of creations from chunky hand-knits to sleek, sophisticated tailored outfits.

According to museum director, Padraic Fisher, the exhibition is a first for the museum. “While we have been involved in fashion events before, we haven’t hosted an exhibition on this scale with the same level of international prestige and renown,” he said.

Fisher said the museum showcased the past, present and future of wool in the Australian landscape, and visitor numbers increased each year. \

The designersn Belgian designer Christian Wijnants, 34, took top

honours in the 2013 International Woolmark Prize, winning $100,000 and the chance to see his designs sold in some of

the world’s leading department stores. Wijnants’ collection was based on the idea of starting from a single white yarn and exploring

all its potential. He worked with one type of yarn in merino wool and on seamless garments, knitted in one piece. His predominant theme was based

on “hand-knitting and hand-dyeing techniques, using deep colours inspired by crystals and minerals, and experimenting to obtain unique shades and avoid

shrinkage. Every piece was dyed with innovative techniques, and some of them were unravelled and then reknitted”, according to the Woolmark Prize website.

n The judging panel for the 2013 prize included designers Donatella Versace and Victoria Beckham.

n Regional winners were required to create a six-piece merino wool collection, which was shown to the judging panel at London Fashion Week earlier this year.

n Franca Sozzani, the editor-in-chief of Vogue Italia and L’Uomo Vogue and a Woolmark Prize judge, said “Christian invented a new shape and made it possible with an industrial production process. His designs are flattering, feminine and sexy, a modern interpretation of wool.”

n Australian designer Dion Lee was a regional finalist in the prize, and the national winner. In just three years in the industry the 26-year-old has

created seven collections, winning awards in prestigious fashion events, including the L’Oréal Melbourne Fashion Festival Young Designer Award in 2010. “I didn’t even dare to expect to win,” Lee said at the time. “What this means for my career ...

it’s hard to put into words.” \ michelle hAmer

Iam looking down the back of Jerry Hall’s dress. This is not something I had anticipated I might be doing when I sat down to interview one of the great style icons of the ’70s and ’80s.

I have asked the still-elegant actor and former model if she enjoys fashion as a consumer these days, and she tells me she likes the designer she’s wearing now, but can’t remember her name. “She has a shop … oh, what’s the name …?”

So here I am peering down her back. I am waiting to have my hand imperiously swiped away, but the woman who has stripped gloriously naked for photographers and theatre-goers alike is utterly unfazed.

The label turns out to be Fifi Chachnil. “Yeah, yeah, Fifi: it’s French. Gorgeous lingerie and a few outfits that are great – ha!”

When I later look up the designer’s webpage, it is of course designed in pink and black with Parisian curlicues, featuring Irma la Douce-style sex-kitten lingerie absolutely right for this purring, powerful,

James, Georgia and Gabriel. Is it hard to bring up balanced children when you are so wealthy? “I think that’s really important,” Hall says. “We were quite strict about all that. At Christmas they got something they wanted but they also got things they needed, like things for school, and they have grown up to appreciate that. I do think my children have an idea about the value of money and the value of hard work.”

Jagger, of course, is famously tight with money, so I’m not surprised to hear this. “Yeah, he is tight – ha! But that’s pretty good.”

The Hall-Jagger romance was, and still is, one of the great pairings of popular culture and Hall is always at her most amusing when she speaks about the good and bad times of their 23-year

marriage. She describes Jagger as a good dad but says their parenting styles are very different.

“He was quite strict about things. He can be quite disapproving about things in a very old-fashioned way, which I think is a bit silly. I’ve always said to them that it doesn’t matter what you do in life as long as you like what you do. Mick has always had this old-fashioned attitude, like his father, that you ought to go to uni. But I think you can go back to uni later if you have something to do that you love.”

Hall says that, at 21, her model daughter Georgia has made enough money from her modelling work to buy her own house in London for several million pounds, but that doesn’t seem to impress dad.

“He should be proud of that too!” Is he? “I think he’s kind of slightly annoyed that she’s so independent.”

Hall’s and Jagger’s marriage could not have had a more shocking end. After their 23 years, and more than a little infidelity, Jagger petitioned the High

geniuses”, and says she had tears rolling down her face at the concert. But has she read Keith Richards’ fascinating and very funny autobiography, Life?

“No!”Why ever not?“Because he didn’t write it!,” she drawls drily. “He

can’t remember anything, he’s brain dead. Let’s face it [co-author, British journalist James Fox] had to scrounge around interviewing everybody who knew Keith. I do like him, and Mick said Keith was very intelligent, but if you take heroin for 20, 30 years, how are you going to have a brain?”

When I remind her that Keith claims most of his heroin was medicinal grade, she laughs. “Oh, come on! ‘I’m so cool my heroin’s better than yours’? I do love him, but let’s face it – I’m not going to waste my time reading a book that some guy made up.”

Both Hall’s daughters have entered the world of modelling – Georgia appears responsible for the sudden flurry around gap-toothed models – and while Hall is careful not to be in any way critical of the milieu Elizabeth and Georgia are part of (“It’s amazing now with digital photography; they can fix everything. Before, it all had to be perfect.”), she is dismayed at the heavy lifting that seems to go with the work these days. “We used to think we were artists, and have long lunches and spend all day discussing art and then doing a few photographs. Nowadays there’s global media, they don’t get any time to rest and they’re travelling all the time. I keep telling the girls they’ve got to take time off.”

Hall says she doesn’t miss the world of modelling at all; acting is the thing now. She has bought a house back in Texas, where her mother died just a few months ago and, when we speak, says her children are in the new house “receiving the furniture”.

You’d think more than 20 years in England – most of them living in a historically significant house in Richmond – would have changed her allegiances, but Hall is avowedly American and, more than that, Texan.

“I really like the people. Tough women, fun,” she says. “I feel right at home with them.” \

lioness of a woman. When Hall mentions she also stocks up on Australian sex-bomb label Wheels & Dollbaby whenever she is in the country, I can’t help it any more: “But this is like your Roxy Music video come to life!”

She rocks with laughter. “Ahhhh know!”No, that’s not right. It’s more like “Ahhhhh

knohhhhhh” and, throughout our conversation, as an expression of happy agreement or as a charming – and disarming – way of sidestepping a subject she’d rather not delve into, the mother of four and former wife of Mick Jagger uses her Texan drawl to hypnotic effect. She is funny and candid, but so sweetly careful in what she will and won’t give away that you realise only later just what she hasn’t told you.

Jerry Hall is back in Australia to reprise her role as Mrs Robinson in the Broadway/West End adaptation of Mike Nichols’ The Graduate. She has been playing in various productions of this role for 13 years now.

“It’s lovely to get a chance to reprise a role. It’s a role I know works.”

Hall says that she enjoys the complexity of Mrs Robinson – “It’s either confrontation or seduction with her; those are her two intentions” – and sees parallels with Mrs Robinson’s frustration and the lives of so many contemporary women.

“She’s got a lot of inner anger … I think she’s an intelligent woman who had artistic ability, but got pregnant and had to get married and didn’t get to do anything since but cause trouble. For any woman this whole idea of ‘having it all’ is not really truthful. It’s a fantasy – some things always have to be cut back on.”

If there is such a thing as work/life balance, however, Jerry Hall has come the closest I know to achieving it. After arriving in Paris as a 16-year-old, with a trunk full of home-made Frederick’s of Hollywood-inspired clothes, the tall and imposing Texan quickly found work with some of the greatest photographers of the past few decades: Richard Avedon, David Bailey, Helmut Newton. She was a celebrated model before she was 20, winning Vogue covers and travelling the world for exotic shoots. When you talk of the ’70s party scenes of London, New York and Paris, Jerry Hall’s name is always there.

But when she met Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger, and left Roxy Music singer Bryan Ferry for him,

she was as quickly devoted to family life as she had been to work. In an earlier interview I conducted with her for ABC TV, Hall spoke about taking “six months off to breastfeed in the Caribbean” and it’s a thought that has stuck with me, not only for its glamorous imagery, but because Hall clearly had the financial freedom to do so.

“You teach by example,” she says, “and Mick and I have always been hard-working people, and the children have learnt to work, and that work is important in life.

“I have tried, I have tried my hardest. My children, knock on wood, have turned out great. They have been successful in school, successful in their careers – they’re lovely, and they feel I was there for them a lot. But they will still bring something up like, ‘Well, you were onstage for a year when I was doing this or that’. That’s just the way it is. You can’t be there for everything.”

Hall and Jagger had four children together: Elizabeth,

Court to have the union annulled on the basis that their ceremony in Bali was not legitimate. It was a breathtaking betrayal. In our ABC interview Hall told me that Jagger said it was his lawyer’s idea. On being reminded that lawyers act only on their client’s instructions, she drawled, “Ahhh knohhhh – it was pretty terrible but nothing he did surprised me.”

Does she miss him? “Umm, I do … well, … not really. I see him enough. No, I don’t miss being married to him – that was tiring. That was not fun. I had to keep a tight rein, and it’s boring, like kids acting up. ‘Oh god, not again … ’. Very hurtful, really hard.”

The Rolling Stones recently celebrated their 50th anniversary as a band. Hall says one of the highlights was the extended Rolling Stones family coming together to celebrate at the London arena concert, with all the band members’ children, who had toured and grown up with each other. “They’ve been so close since they were babies; it’s fantastic having a get-together.”

Hall still calls Jagger and Keith Richards “poets and

“mick said keith was very intelligent, but if you take heroin for 20, 30 years, how are you going to have a brain?”

CENTRAL GEELONG FARMERS’ MARKETThe Geelong region has so much to offer, with unique fresh produce from the Otways to the Bellarine Peninsula, and it was all on display at the Central Geelong Farmers’ Market on the weekend. Local shoppers browsed the stalls for the freshest fruit and vegetables, chutneys, olive oil, honey, preserves and locally grown flowers. Hand-made gourmet steel-drum popcorn proved popular, as did the sweet and rich Fudgalicious stall. Kids enjoyed a hands-on experience patting ducks, guinea pigs, rabbits and goats in the miniature animal farm. Stallholder George Fava was proud of his Lara-grown vegetables and said “the best compliment to receive is when the customer buys my local grown veggies that I have worked very hard to produce.” The Central Geelong Farmers’ Market is held on the second Saturday of each month in Little Malop Street. \ Reg Ryan

Motoring \ IT’S FUN TO GET UP AND GO, WRITES ROD EASDOWN

The Up is a surprising car. The best surprise is the economy, it’s brilliant. But the biggest surprise is that the Up

doesn’t know it’s such a small car.Cars of this size can get a little wayward at

freeway speeds, and quite noisy. Generally they’re not nice once out of the city. But at 100 km/h the Up is solid and no noisier than plenty of big cars. At 120, however, noise rises. You don’t want to go any faster.

It rides surprisingly well for something of this size, but chuck it into a challenging corner and you quickly find its limits. It’s not as solid as VW’s Golf or even the Polo, and it’s easy to get understeer, where the front wheels skate ahead, something to think about if the road’s wet.

The little three-cylinder is a valiant trier and ever enthusiastic, but its promises are beyond its abilities. You think you’re going hard until you realise all the other cars are still with you. And on the highway you need to be in the right gear to overtake, and have a generous length of clear road. Decent hills require a down-shift.

Not surprisingly, there’s no auto transmission available. Anyway, the Up is from Europe, where 80 per cent of buyers choose manual.

But it’s this very lack of power that makes the car such fun. You can wring its neck and not break any laws. Note, however, the motor’s severe lack of torque, which leaves you high

and dry when you need solid go and the revs aren’t right.

It will appeal to people who enjoy driving. For everyone else it doesn’t

make a lot of sense; it’s expensive and basic both in equipment and finish. There’s a lot of bare metal in the cabin and few little niceties. By far the most annoying thing to me was the lack of centre console ventilation outlets.

The seats are thin but not bad, the rear is

for kids. The boot is very narrow but quite deep – maybe one mid-size suitcase inserted vertically. But there’s a full-size spare under the floor.

I enjoyed my time in the car immensely, but then I enjoy driving. If you buy a car to get from A to B and nothing more, there are better deals to be found among Mazdas, Hyundais and Mitsubishis. \

Family scraps in the Bensted household were a bit different to most. There were no ugly haymakers, nor objects thrown

across the room. But somehow Emily Bensted – among three growing brothers – can say she has come out on top.

Holding the only Commonwealth Games wrestling medal in the extended family, she at least owns bragging rights.

“When they were smaller than me, I could take them,” Bensted says of her brothers, while giggling from her 55-kilogram frame.

“Now they are quite a bit bigger, I couldn’t. But there were quite a few lounge room rumbles once. Then when you throw a couple of people into the fight, it always got interesting.”

Those people she talks about are a part of the Bensted fighting legacy. Dad, Greg and her uncle, Paul, started as amateur wrestlers.

Later in Geelong they turned their hand to judo and dominated, and half a dozen of their children followed in their fathers’ footsteps.

“So I started judo quite young – I suppose I was about eight, and my dad was one of the coaches,” Bensted says.

“All my brothers and sisters have done judo as well. Two of my brothers, Jack and Tom, have also competed internationally.”

The little brothers, 20 and 18 respectively, that Bensted once could hold down on the loungeroom floor, both now weigh in at about the 80-kilogram mark and are still on the rise for Australia.

Bensted, along with Greg and Jack, have all been inducted into the Geelong YMCA Judo Club’s Hall of Fame – or, in other words, have achieved the top rank of first dan.

But it is her 16-year-old cousin, Jake Bensted, who could challenge Emily and climb to the top of the family tree.

And she couldn’t sound prouder, as the grappler boasts of his judo exploits.

“He’s really up and coming in the sport,” Bensted says of her cousin.

“He is now number one in the seniors and juniors in his division for the Oceania region and also nationals. So he’s looking at qualifying for the Commonwealth Games next year.”

That’s out of the picture right now for Emily Bensted who is nursing her newborn first baby, Ellie, while taking time out from competitions.

For the time being, the 26-year-old is lapping up the cultural surrounds of Nagoya in Japan, the historic home of judo, with husband Tom Van Kalken, who is contracted

as fitness coach for one of the Japanese professional rugby union clubs until the end of 2014.

Motherhood aside, judo hasn’t been a priority for Bensted. She has attended just one local tournament, when a close friend came to Japan to compete after qualifying for the 2012 Olympics.

“The area we are living in, there is a training club, but it is only for men,” Bensted says.

“So for that reason, I haven’t stepped back on the mat yet.”

Judo was more of the sport of convenience than choice during her junior years because

there were no wrestling clubs in Geelong. So in 2008, she finally switched to freestyle wrestling, confident in the knowledge of her dad’s years of experience and a few words of sage advice.

But she found rising up the ranks of Australian judo meant very little when competing against seasoned mat wrestlers.

“I think it’s probably more of a disadvantage,” she says of her judo skills transitioning into wrestling, “because some things you do in judo, you don’t want to do in wrestling.

“It’s kind of a bit tricky, really - how you fight in some ways, there is quite a big difference. If you are a wrestler against a judo fighter, you know how to kick them off because they are going to do some things the same.”

Against the odds and after only two years in the new sport, Bensted captured a silver medal at the 2010 Commonwealth Games.

The feat was also historic because female wrestling was instituted into the Olympics just two years earlier.

The admirable loss in the final to Geeta Phogat, of India, was in front of a raucous New Delhi home crowd.

The Highton girl, reflecting more than 2½ years later, says she was something

of an accidental success story.“I really didn’t expect it,” Bensted

says, hesitantly. “I guess once you start training, you’re always a chance.

“A lot of the principles of movement are similar, though the sports are quite

different, but, yes, I didn’t expect [to win] a medal.” \

laid-back livingOnce a sleepy seaside haven just outside Torquay, Jan Juc has almost become an outer suburb of its better-known neighbour. While contemporary houses are replacing the old-style beach shacks, this hamlet still has managed to retain the charm of village-style living. Barrie and Carole Delves are testament to the enduring appeal of the Jan Juc lifestyle, having lived here for more than 30 years.

Who lives here?Barrie and Carole Delves, Ava, the short-haired pointer and Elliott, the Siamese.

What are your occupations?Barrie works in the oil and gas industry as an operations adviser.

Where did you live before this house?We have lived in Jan Juc for more than 30 years.

What attracted you to this house and the area?Being able to live close to the beach; Geelong is a handy 20 minutes away, with great schools, and Melbourne is only an hour away.

Describe your home’s style?Contemporary and open-plan. We moved in around 10 years ago when it was first built.

What special features do you love about the house?It’s private and is designed to make the most of the seasons. Great airflow in summer and loads of sun in the winter.

How long has it taken to pull your house together?Achieving the look we want is an ongoing project.

What’s the best thing about living here?It’s very peaceful.

Which is your favourite piece?It’s hard to nominate an individual piece but some of the artwork has a special significance.

What is your favourite room?We love the pool house.

Do you have any decorating advice for our readers?If you love it, buy it, and only buy what you love. \

Pop: Artworks add colour to the mostly

monochromatic scheme.

add texture to the pool house.

the lap pool.

SummErfield estate

A VIEW TOTHE FuTurE

Affordable views across Geelong are within reach at this boutique housing development in the heart of Leopold.

Summer Field Estate is ideally located just several hundred metres from Leopold Primary School on a gentle slope overlooking the city.

Unlike many new estates on large greenfield sites, this small 30-lot land release in Ferguson Road is surrounded by established homes and is close to the suburb’s amenities.

If that isn’t enough incentive to consider making it your new address, the developer is throwing in a new car along with the land.

It has teamed with Rex Gorell Ford to give away a new Ford Fiesta CL with every block bought until May 16. The block must be bought at list price and settled within 30 or 60 days. The car, a 1.6-litre, manual model that comes with metallic paint and all on-road costs covered, will be handed over at settlement.

Even with the new wheels, chances are the kids will be able to walk or ride to the local school, which is nearby at the end of

Ferguson Road. One of the main attractions of Summer Field is that it is also within easy walking distance of shops and services. Ash Road is the closest shopping strip, with Leopold’s major retail

hub, Gateway Plaza, 15 minutes on foot. Opposite the plaza is Gateway Sanctuary, a large open space with parks, wetlands, walking trails, barbecues

and a playground.The area around this corner of the Bellarine

Highway and Melaluka Road is earmarked for future expansion into a retail centre that would rival Waurn Ponds Shopping Centre in size. With Geelong’s CBD just 10 minutes away, Leopold residents don’t have far to travel for a greater range

of shops and services.As the gateway to the Bellarine Peninsula, the

suburb is popular with those who want to be close to the region’s surf beaches or bayside towns. With good

access to the Bellarine Highway, Summer Field Estate puts both within easy reach.

So far 14 lots have been sold at the development. Construction is complete and the fully serviced blocks are ready to be built on. \

EDUCATIONLeopold Primary School is several hundred metres away. Other options

include primary schools in neighbouring towns such as Wallington and Moolap. There are secondary colleges within a 10-minute drive at Newcomb and Drysdale, where several independent schools are also based.

playThe Bellarine Rail Trail weaves its

way through the centre of Leopold, providing a cycle and walking link to South Geelong Station in one direction and Queenscliff in the other. Leopold Memorial Recreation Reserve is home to the town’s football/netball and cricket clubs. It also offers tennis courts and a playground.

TRANSPORTRegular bus services connect Leopold with Geelong via Newcomb.

The nearest stop is just blocks away from the estate. Buses also operate along the Bellarine Highway in the direction of Ocean Grove and Queenscliff.

ShoppingLeopold’s Gateway Plaza is less than two kilometres, or a 15-minute walk,

away. It is home to a Coles supermarket plus a medical centre, pharmacy, post office and speciality shops. The Ash Road shopping strip is also within easy walking distance.

Strength is synonymous with the name Hercules and, when it comes to design, this display house lives up to

the legend.G.J. Gardner has put plenty of thought into this modern

coastal house, which is right at home among the surf breaks of Torquay.With a narrow floor plan, it punches above the weight of its street

frontage and offers spacious open-plan living set over two levels.G.J. Gardner Geelong franchise owner Rohan Smith said the Hercules

279 was adapted from a popular Queensland design and focused on the coastal lifestyle.

Large sliding doors and windows throughout are designed to capture views of the ocean and natural surroundings.

The four-bedroom house has plenty of appeal for coastal residents and holidaymakers. With several zoned living areas, there is a space to keep everyone occupied and out of each others’ hair when the swell drops.

On the ground floor, there are three bedrooms off a central hallway that leads to a family room at the rear. From here sliding doors take you to the backyard.

Opposite the bedrooms is the luxurious family bathroom, featuring a coffee-coloured stone benchtop, double shower and bath, plus a separate toilet and laundry.

An impressive timber staircase with stainless-steel balustrade – the first thing you see on arrival – takes you to the heart of the second level. No space is wasted here, with the landing home to a generous study area and a built-in desk that can easily accommodate two work stations.

On the other side of the stairwell is the open-plan kitchen, living and dining area with its polished floorboards. Full-length windows feature across the front of the room, with sliding doors on to the covered balcony, making outdoor activities a breeze.

Practical yet stylish chocolate-coloured stone benchtops combine with white cupboards in the modern kitchen, which has a long breakfast bar and 900-millimetre oven and cooktop.

The cosy media room provides a third living space in which to unwind.

At the rear is the spacious main bedroom, which again has several windows, plus a massive en suite with expansive stone vanity and walk-in wardrobe. \

Here’s your chance to purchase a piece of Geelong’s history. Eumeralla, a sprawling single-storey residence built by early Geelong settler James Simson in 1854,

is hidden behind a private front fence in this sought-after Newtown street. It was one of the city’s first homes and remains one of its finest.

The house stands on almost 2000 square metres of land, remarkable for an inner-city property, and stepping foot inside the front gate is like stepping back in time. It’s a beauty that has been restored to retain every inch of its grandeur.

It offers the right mix of period appeal and modern luxury; a result that would no doubt please Mr Simson himself.

The expansive front gardens are like something out of a Jane Austen novel, with leafy trees, a historic Norfolk Island pine, manicured hedges and rose gardens. The craftsmanship that has gone into the façade of the rendered brick residence, from the archways on the verandah to the bay windows and slate roof, is breathtaking.

A stunning wide entrance hall, with polished floorboards and high panelled ceiling, greets you through the front door. It immediately gives a sense of just how big this house is.

There’s a formal lounge to the left, with a marble fireplace, glass chandelier and antique wallpaper. It’s a showcase of old-world glamour. Further along the hall is a billiard room with a fireplace, while the main bedroom and guest bedroom are to the back left of the house. Both have en suites and, again, are steeped in period features.

To the right of the billiard room is another hall leading to the west wing. Off to the right is a second living area with open fireplace and dark timber features, followed by the lavish formal dining with another fireplace and timber-framed windows with garden views.

On the opposite side of the hall is a beautiful kitchen that

seamlessly blends the home’s opulent Victorian features with modern convenience, including 2pac cabinetry, a 900mm Ilve stainless-steel oven and stainless-steel Asko dishwasher. But the centrepiece of the kitchen is, without doubt, the expansive island bench made of Carrara marble. There are also french doors to the paved outdoor entertainment area.

A second informal dining and family area is off to the right of the kitchen, with french doors to a private courtyard. The fresh white walls and clean lines in the meals area and the kitchen are in contrast to the rich timber features in the front of the house and add a feeling of light and space.

An open study, two more bedrooms and a rumpus room are at the rear, as well as a family bathroom with corner spa and a European laundry. While this is the old servants’ quarters, the finishes in the bathroom and laundry are nothing short of indulgent.

At the rear is where this historic house morphs from Jane Austen romance to Great Gatsby extravagance. The in-ground pool with Travertine paving and imposing pool house is spectacular. There’s a spa and water feature to the left of the pool and room for sunbeds for lazy summer days. The impressive pool house has a built-in barbecue and sink, wood-fired pizza oven, built-in timber seating, a wind-down shade screen, TV projector screen, storage room and shower.

Past the pool house is a lawn with swing set. Further across is a garden with vegetable patch and fruit trees.

The house has new hydronic heating throughout and a lock-up garage. Eumeralla is just around the corner from Pakington St, a short walk to the city centre and close to some of the city’s most prestigious schools. \

Picture windows framing the canopy of trees along the Barwon River are the standout feature of this elegant house. The three-bedroom

house is in a prime position on an elevated, 948-square-metre allotment that provides glimpses of greenery from almost every room.

In the front lounge, off the entrance foyer, a large north-facing, floor-to-ceiling window captures views of the river and provides great natural light. With high ceilings and a neutral interior, the room has classic appeal and a touch of luxury thanks to the marble mantel surrounding the wood fire heater.

The open-plan kitchen, living and dining area

features another tree-top vista, with a bench seat under the window from which to enjoy it. The large, modern kitchen has an expanse of bench space and storage, with a long breakfast bar, stainless-steel appliances and glass splashback. The European laundry is at one end. From here, there’s a glass door onto a paved patio.

There’s also a balcony off the light-filled study at the other end of the living area. Down the hallway there are three bedrooms, all with built-in wardrobes. The main bathroom has a modern free-standing vanity unit along with a shower and bath. There’s another bathroom with a toilet, plus a separate powder room. \ NICOLE MAYNE

Unit living doesn’t mean compromising on outdoor space at this renovated property near Belmont’s High Street shopping precinct. A large undercover deck, almost the size of the open-plan living area, means there is plenty of room for entertaining. There’s even a timber bar where guests can prop with a drink and snack. A recent renovation and the handy location should appeal to investors or

those looking to downsize. The combined dining/living area has timber floors and sliding doors onto the deck, which doubles as the main entry. The modern kitchen has timber-look laminate cupboards, black benchtops, electric hotplate and stainless-steel underbench oven. New carpets have been laid in the bedroom, which has a built-in wardrobe. Through the kitchen is the combined bathroom and laundry with another door to a side path. This rear unit has a private feel, with two entrances to its yard from Watson Avenue and Arthur Street around the corner. It is here you will find the lock-up garage. \ NICOLE MAYNE

Rarely is inner-city living so family-friendly. Beautifully renovated and meticulously maintained, this double-storey weatherboard house offers a

luxurious lifestyle with everything you need at your doorstep. The façade is sympathetic to its heritage, with latticework on the bullnose verandah, but inside it’s a picture of modern elegance. High ceilings are a feature throughout – with period cornices at the front – while expansive windows allow in natural light, complementing the polished floorboards.

There are two large bedrooms at the front, the main to the left. It includes a walk-in wardrobe and en suite, while the bedroom to the right has a wall of built-in wardrobes. There’s a powder room a little further along and the formal lounge, before the hallway opens to the contemporary kitchen with stainless-steel appliances and a butler’s pantry. Bifold doors access the outside deck, which offers a great space for entertaining. There’s a laundry at the rear, as well as entry to the remote-controlled double garage. A stunning staircase with glass balustrade leads to the second level, which overlooks the kitchen from the landing. There are another two bedrooms, as well as a bathroom, while another short flight of stairs takes you to the second living room – the perfect teenagers’ retreat. Geelong’s CBD, waterfront, and South Geelong train station are just a short stroll away. \ SARAH BIESKE

This modern contemporary house – built less than two years ago – has been created with open space front of mind. The timber-floored hallway takes you to the large, welcoming kitchen, dining and living area. The kitchen is ideal for hosting large numbers with its elegant stone benchtops, stainless-steel appliances, dishwasher and butler’s pantry. Sliding glass doors from the dining area lead to a

compact but user-friendly outdoor area. At the front of the house, the main bedroom has an en suite and walk-in wardrobe, while the lounge across the hall could also be used as a study or a fourth bedroom. The double garage, with remote-controlled entry, also has internal access from the side hall. A roller door at the back of the garage allows garden or building equipment to be brought through. Two more bedrooms with built-in wardrobes share a bathroom with a separate toilet. This part of Leopold offers the chance to be part of a growing community, with surrounding blocks hosting newly built houses just 15 kilometres from Geelong’s CBD. \ NICK PRICE

It’s the details that lift this modern family house to great heights. Tinted windows keep heating and cooling costs low, hall sensor lights guide the way from the remote-controlled double garage to the living area and, outside, water tanks ensure a lush backyard. Rural views are a highlight in the front main bedroom, which has a walk-in wardrobe, toilet and en suite with double vanity.

A glass sliding door separates the undercover outdoor area from the open-plan kitchen, dining and lounge. A wide island bench doubles as a breakfast bar in a kitchen with stainless-steel appliances. Along the hall are three carpeted bedrooms, each with built-in wardrobes. The laundry has access to the backyard. A large, airy bathroom with bath and modern vanity adjoins a separate toilet and study area. French doors mark the entrance to a huge theatre or rumpus. Two pergolas under the roofline make for easy entertaining and a lockable side gate allows perfect off-street parking for a boat. \ MARY-JANE DAFFY

This stylish house is in such excellent condition you wouldn’t know it has ever been lived in. Timber accents and hardwood floors highlight the warm, contemporary colour palette. Both bedrooms are at the front; the main bedroom has an air-conditioner and twin walk-in wardrobes. The shared bathroom has a luxuriously deep bath, large shower and has dual entry from the hall and the

main bedroom. Also off the hall is a study, powder room with vanity and laundry with access to the backyard and garage. A cosy gas log fire is the centrepiece of the large open-plan kitchen, living and dining area at the rear of the house. Cooking and entertaining should be easy in the functional kitchen with stainless-steel appliances, walk-in pantry and breakfast bar. The north-facing study and living area have thermal blinds and there is a second air-conditioner in the main living area for added comfort. Extra features include a security front door, external lighting and single garage with remote-control entry. \ TIFFANY PILCHER

Agents at the weekend were greeted by conditions more akin to spring than the last Saturday in April, with

a brisk, warm northerly blowing in some good results.

The bids came thick and fast at the auction of unit 1, 11-13 Skene Street, Newtown. Auctioneer Jason Barnett (Professionals) was kept busy as four bidders quickly pushed the price from $260,000 to beyond $315,000.

A fifth bidder entered the fray late and took the prize at $320,000, concluding an entertaining spectacle for the crowd of about 60.

The two-bedroom unit, within walking distance of the CBD, was sold under

instructions from the State Trustees. The winning bidder was an investor.

Across in Geelong West, Marcus Falconer (Hodges) wasn’t kept quite as busy at 153 Autumn Street.

Again a good crowd turned out, but hands stayed in pockets until the persistent auctioneer, following his vendor pitch of $300,000, cajoled a bid of $310,000.

It was short of the reserve on the two-bedroom Victorian just a stone’s throw from Pakington Street, but the property went to an investor for an undisclosed price after post-auction negotiations.

Back in Newtown and again in Skene

Street, this time at No. 161, the sunny, windy conditions led Dale Whitford (Whitford) to hold the auction in the enticing backyard.

A marvellous shady tree and big outdoor umbrella would have done plenty to

impress the crowd of about 40 with the property’s charm.

The auctioneer lauded the big, four-bedroom, character weatherboard house’s proximity to “world-class education” and the

“gastronomic delights of the Gold Diggers’ Arms”, but his call for any

advance on a vendor’s bid of $650,000 went unheeded.

Three parties popped up immediately

after the auction. The property sold to a coastal family for an undisclosed price.

One of the day’s biggest crowds turned out at 13 Cedar Grove, Highton, where the manicured front lawn was a perfect spot to watch Peter Maxwell (Maxwell Collins) put the property up for sale.

“You all saw the new lights down at Simonds Stadium,” he told the crowd, referring to the wonderful views from the backyard across the Barwon Valley and on to the redeveloped Kardinia Park.

Unfortunately, he had to work harder for his points than the Cats. He finally coaxed a lone bidder to $402,000, before the property was passed in. It sold on Monday. \

elAINe \ 33345270 Midland Highway Auction \ May 4 at noon Price \ POA

Heavenly real estate has hit the market in Geelong and in the township of Elaine on the Midland Highway.

Geelong’s TAFE Institute, The Gordon, is selling a historic bluestone church and accompanying buildings.

Don Hough, the commercial manager of Maxwell Collins, is handling the sale.

The property has an asking price of $1.1 million plus GST. The institute bought the church and buildings in Fenwick

Street, about six years ago for $975,000. “It’s very versatile,” said Hough. “It could suit an art gallery

What the experts say

A rchitect Robert Harwood, principal of My Architect, a firm with architects in Sydney, Melbourne and Geelong and Professor Hisham

Elkadi, head of School of Architecture & Built Environment, Faculty of Science, Engineering & Built Environment, Deakin University, on what they would do with both churches.

RobERt HARwooD

“Do a detailed drawing of the building using the latest 3D surveying technology.

“Review the heritage listing to understand what will have to be kept and restored, what part could be renovated or removed.

Look at potential areas within and surrounding the building for new additions.

“Work out which features of the existing building can work for you in the proposed new use. Avoid getting trapped into expensive restoration of parts you really don’t need to use.

“Look at the landscaping. There could be opportunities to create better light and outdoor café areas with more contemporary landscape treatment.

“Early strategic costing is very important so not to go down the wrong route. A good architect will help with lateral solutions.”

“[The Elaine church] looks like something out of a Peter Carey novel or gothic mid-west America.

“To me this is the location for a grand contemporary house and the land, at 40 metres by 100 metres, is a good size and would easily accommodate another more substantial building.

“The thing to do would be build the new house and create a courtyard space that the church would sit in. The old church can be then used as a studio or gallery space as the costs involved in refurbishing and converting it to bedroom or living room space would be prohibitive.”

PRoFESSoR HISHAM ELkADI

“Geelong is very rich with culture-built heritage that is yet to be fully recognised.

“The sale of the bluestone church provides an excellent opportunity, not only to safeguard the future of such a

wonderful building but also to enhance its use and its surroundings. It is important that any future use would maintain the shell of memories encrypted in the church’s walls and façades while providing contemporary life to its interiors.

“We should not aim to preserve the past but rather carefully transfer it for future generations through beautifully designed interiors that do not compromise the shell.” \

or office or even a restaurant.” Built in 1868 as a Baptist church in the early English gothic revival style, its bluestone is dressed with Barrabool Hills sandstone.

Melbourne architects Smith and Watts designed the church, while a who’s who of the building industry worked on the project.

Also for sale through Maxwell Collins is the former Catholic church at Elaine, about 55 kilometres from the centre of Geelong. David Collins will auction the historic weatherboard church, with the zoning of township on Saturday.

Measuring about 4046 square metres, the property is made up of two lots, which will be sold as one.

“It would ideally lend itself to being a home, or an art and craft gallery or even some sort of hospitality venue,” said Collins. The church has a vaulted timber ceiling and fully lined timber walls. \

Santorini Restaurant in Williamstown is re-opening for dinner on Monday 6th May 2013 after a protracted closure due to an unforeseen fi re that occurred NYE.

The building is the oldest original Post Offi ce still standing in Victoria, and careful assessment was required before works for the re-opening could begin.

The restaurant has been fully refurbished with an exciting new decor and a fresh menu that includes some old favourites.

The owners of Santorini wish to thank the local emergency services that helped save this historical building and popular local eatery. Local staff were

re-deployed by neighbouring businesses, but are all keen to return to their local Greek family.

The extended Santorini team are all keen to welcome back all the loyal local customers that have offered their best wishes during this diffi cult period, and say

“Yiasou” - come back soon, and enjoy the fresh new Santorini experience. 1 Parker Street Williamstown
