  • Peter Carey: Venturing Into Territory He Had Long Steered Clear Of
    __________________________________________________________ Peter Carey: Venturing into territory he had long steered clear of Andrew Purcell 26 October 2017 When the time comes to write the story of Peter Carey's life (and someone else will have to volunteer, because he has no interest in doing it himself) the National Playwrights Conference in Canberra, in May 1984, will be recalled as the place he met his second wife, theatre director Alison Summers. He arrived a not-quite- married man, nine years into a relationship with painter Margot Hutcheson, and never returned home to Bellingen. Another important event occurred there, though, that is less well known: a conversation with Aboriginal activist Gary Foley that had a profound influence on Carey's writing. It would be a form of colonisation for white authors to inhabit the inner lives of Indigenous Australians, Foley told him. In short: "We don't want you guys writing about us." Australian author Peter Carey: "I don't think you'd want a writer who was writing puff pieces for their country." Photo: Steven Siewert So for decades, as he wove an epic tapestry of his homeland, a colony founded on stolen territory by convicts and their jailers, Carey omitted Aboriginal characters and stories. His great Australian novels Illywhacker, Oscar and Lucinda and True History of the Kelly Gang are animated by Scottish and Irish settlers, Chinese and Jewish 2 immigrants, Englishmen (real and imaginary) and their descendants. The continent's Indigenous peoples are present only in their absence. In Illywhacker, Australia itself is a story told by a liar, spelled out towards the end by fictional historian MV Anderson: "Our forefathers were all great liars.

  • Dirty Deeds on the Black Stump …
    Dirty Deeds on the Black Stump ….. no, you don’t need a modified rally car to join in the fun! Gerald Lee & Ian Reddoch Isn’t it ironic that most classic car events these days don’t have two of the most defining features of the classic rallies of the ‘60s and ‘70s …… Dirt and Darkness? Those of us old enough and lucky enough to have got our start in motorsport back then, can tell you that rallies (and Car Trials as they were more commonly called) were almost exclusively held from dusk to dawn on gravel roads and forestry tracks. And apart from a very few privileged stars in sponsored cars, you ‘run what you brung’, which you drove to and from the event and hoped that it would still be in a fit state to drive to work on Monday! Both of us welcome any opportunity to participate in events that provide to chance to relive real classic rallying. Such events are few and far between these days. While the ever-energetic members of the Historic Rally Association have kept the flame alive with a healthy calendar of dirt rallies in Victoria, such events were an extinct species in NSW until the irrepressible Dave Johnson and a small band of like-minded enthusiasts formed the Historic Rally Club of NSW & ACT a couple of years ago to rekindle interest in ‘real’ Classic Rallying North of the Murray. When the format for the 2019 Black Stump Tour of the Central West was announced we knew we had to be part of it this time.

  • Sydney – Port Macquarie - Sydney
    Barry Ferguson/Dave Johnson in the Holden Torana GTR – from the 1971 regulations booklet 1970 7 - 11 OCTOBER SYDNEY – PORT MACQUARIE - SYDNEY 62 PREAMBLE The New South Wales tourist resort town of Port Macquarie became the host town to the 1970 Southern Cross International Rally, again directed by Alan Lawson. In between starting and finishing in Sydney, the event spent three nights at Port Macquarie, with its thousands of square miles of adjacent forests, ideal for the way rallying was developing now that shire roads were not readily available. The new area allowed for an event in excess of 3000 kilometres and was considered to be able to provide competition at least half as tough again as previous events, although 1969 was not considered to be as tough as the first three years, when the event passed through the Australian Capital Territory and Victoria. The Southern Cross International Rally was becoming a major undertaking, and one that brought rewards to entrants and competitors, and also to the commercial and tourist interests who supported it. With this kind of support, the event looked forward to be being Australia’s answer to some of the top overseas events. The starting order was by ballot within five categories, which unlike previous years, reflected the increasingly international status of the event. The first category was drivers who had placed up to 6th in an international rally. The second category was for drivers placed up to 12th in any international rally or up to 6th in a national championship rally. The third category was for drivers who had placed up to 3rd in class in an international rally or up to 12th in a national championship rally.

  • BRIDGE MATTERS  Newsletter of the Caloundra, Coolum and Sunshine Coast Bridge Clubs September 2015
    BRIDGE MATTERS Newsletter of the Caloundra, Coolum and Sunshine Coast Bridge Clubs September 2015 AROUND THE CLUBS ♣♣♣ ♣♣♣ ♣♣♣ CALOUNDRA Members were up bright and early on Thursday 28th May for Caloundra Bridge Club’s annual Biggest Morning Tea. Three rounds of Bridge were played by 80 players before they en- joyed a great array of delicious cakes with their morning tea: these supplied courtesy of our great in-house bakers. Following the break, Jim Lee conducted an auction selling donated items from Club members. These included a lovely handmade table cloth with tatted borders given by Ruth MacKinlay and which had been made by her mother. Winners of our raffle prizes will enjoy meals at Alfies, Sunny’s, All’Antica, Blue Orchid, Bell Vista Tavern and Caloundra Bowls Club. Judy Hildebrand will use her voucher from Pelican Waters Golf Club to celebrate her birthday and Jack- ie Taylor is off to Hervey Bay for a 2 night stay in a two bedroom unit at Carlton Apartments. Geoff Gulley won the beautiful quilt made and donated by Judy Leathley. Due to the generosity of other sponsors who later came forward with prizes to support this very worthy cause, we were able to hold a second raffle where sixty tickets were sold to bridge players only. The main prize this time was a three night stay in a 4 star resort in Noosa and was won by Christine Hasted. Thanks to all those businesses which, despite tough times, provided some great prizes to the Club. The Committee too donated the day’s table fees and more thanks to cash donors and to all those who sold and purchased raffle tickets.
