THANKS: Firefighters were not only handed a cheque to say thank you for their hard work during the Port Hills fire – they also
had hot chocolate at She Universe Cafe.
Port Hills fire crews rewarded
• By Caitlin Miles
THE TIRELESS efforts of the
Governors Bay Volunteer Fire
Brigade, following the Port Hills
fires, continue to be recognised.
The brigade received a donation
of nearly $1500 to say thank
you.
She Universe Cafe in Governors
Bay created a special menu
in gratitude.
Cafe owner Debbie Prior said
it was inspired by the dedication
of firefighters.
From every meal, the cafe
donated $1 towards the special
fund.
The menu ran for the month
of March and on Monday night
they handed over a cheque for
$1495.
Chief fire officer Andrew
Norris said they didn’t expect
the cafe to host a fundraiser but
they were grateful and it came at
a good time.
“The donation has helped us
with a couple of big projects,”
Mr Norris said.
The brigade has just built a
large garage and the donations
have helped pay part of the
$120,000 price tag.
“We are really grateful to have
the support,” he said.
Building
repair
time
extension
sought
THE FORMER Lyttelton Harbour
Board building was supposed to be
repaired by last month — but the
extent of work is taking longer than
expected.
The building owners, Water Qual
Ltd, applied for a heritage grant
in 2015 and were given 18 months
to complete work on the earthquake-damaged
building.
The city council approved a grant
of $333,548 in October 2015, the
owners were supposed to have the
work completed by April but due
to difficulties with the design, the
project is running behind time.
The owners are now asking the
city council to extend the time
frame by one year to allow the
building to be finished and still
be entitled to the money from the
heritage grant.
The new completion date would
be March 23, 2018.
It was designed in 1879 and has
had many different uses over the
years, up until the February 22,
2011, earthquake when it was severely
damaged.
The restoration of the project
involved replacing the upper story
and roof.

Sad news to hear the Farmhouse
Tearooms has closed its doors
after only six months. The quirky
Victorian-inspired cafe in Orton
Bradley Park captured the era with
tea and scones. But the park board
said it was too expensive to run.
However, there are plans to open a
new one by next season. See page 4
for that story.
The support continues to flood
in for the volunteer firefighters,
it’s great to see as they do work
tirelessly to keep everyone safe as
they did during the Port Hills fire.
Both Governors Bay and Lyttelton
Volunteer Fire Brigades are busy
raising money for the Sky Tower
Challenge, check page 3 to see how
Lyttelton is getting on.
Sumner’s Harrison Whiteside

Construction of the
Gollans Bay Quarry
Haul Road
Lyttelton Port of Christchurch
is working with Fulton Hogan to
re-build the Haul Road servicing
Gollans Bay Quarry.
Re-construction of the Haul Road
requires rock blasting along a
small portion of the Haul Road
alignment. Blasting will be
completed through a series of
small controlled blasts starting in
May and continuing to August 2017.
Blasting will be intermittent
occurring approximately twice a
week between 9am and 4pm
during this period.
Once completed, the Haul Road
will provide access to the Gollans
Bay Quarry. Rocks from the
quarry will be used to reclaim
additional land to allow the Port
to move its operations east, away
from residential areas.
A blasting exclusion zone has been
set up; this area will be patrolled
before each blast time to ensure
no one is in the blasting exclusion
zone. Blasting signs will also be
placed at main entry/access points
to the publicly accessible areas to
ensure people do not go into the
blasting exclusion zone.

Orton Bradley’s
cafe closed
AFTER JUST six months, the
cafe in Orton Bradley Park has
been closed.
The Farmhouse Tearooms
opened in November. Former
Purau resident Annie Baxter
managed the 1890s-style venue,
which served classic tea and
scones in an ode to Victorian
culture.
Orton Bradley Park manager
Ian Luxford said the decision to
close the cafe was made as it was
not financially sustainable.
“The financial realities of
providing the theme our model
Annie is so passionate about,
are just not sustainable,” Mr
Luxford said.
The concept of having a cafe
in the park had been in the strategic
plan for the last 10 years,
but making the cafe a reality had
been a limited by available funding
and expertise.
Mr Luxford said the park
board had been impressed by
Ms Baxter’s passion for the
Victorian era and embracing
the history of the area. She was
employed to set up and manage
the cafe.
However, after one season, Mr
Luxford said it was too expen-

sive for the park board to afford
to run the cafe.
“The park board could not
afford to continue the café operation
on this basis, so the decision
was made to shut it for the
season. If it were viable it would
still be open,” he said.
However, the park board is
currently undertaking a review
of the cafe operations to better
understand how it can be made
sustainable. It plans to reopen
the cafe in October to coincide
with the flowering of the rhododendrons
and the reopening of
the walking tracks after closure
for lambing.

132-year-old Lyttelton church
gets heritage category upgrade
• By Caitlin Miles
CHURCH OF St Saviour in
Lyttelton has received a new
heritage listing after surviving
several moves during its 132-
year history.
The Anglican church, on
Winchester St, was originally
a category two-listed heritage
building but has now been upgraded
to category one, much
to the excitement of the church
members.
Following
the restoration
work completed
on the church,
Heritage New
Zealand decided
to upgrade
Gavin Holley
the church to
a category one.
This makes it a
historic place of special or outstanding
historical or cultural
significance or value.
It was changed due to its importance
in the area following
the Canterbury earthquakes.
Church Property Trustees
general manager, Gavin Holley,
said it was a “rare honour” and
those involved should be proud
of the upgrade.
St Saviour’s has had an
interesting history, it was
constructed in 1885 to accommodate
the growing number of
seamen visiting the port.
The church is also reputed
to have had Antarctic connections,
notably in the early 20thcentury
with Captain Robert
Falcon Scott and the crews of
the Discovery and Terra Nova.
In 1975-76, as a result of a
dwindling congregation, the
Church of St Saviour was cut
into pieces and relocated to the
city where it was used as the
chapel of Cathedral Grammar
School for nearly 40 years until
the Canterbury earthquakes.
Many of the churches in Lyttelton
were severally damaged
in the earthquakes compared
to St Saviour, which suffered
minor damage.
As a result the church was cut
up in 2013 and moved back to
Lyttelton, in place of the Holy

Trinity Church which was
destroyed in the February and
June 2011 earthquakes.
When the church was moved
back to Lyttelton it was restored
and combined with a section
of the Holy Trinity Church, the
original stained glass window
was saved and put in the refurbished
church.
The church was rebuilt in its
original Gothic style and has
been operating on Winchester
St ever since.
Cruise ship
berth
for port
welcomed
LYTTELTON BUSINESS owners
are happy to know cruise ships will
be returning – bringing more money
into the area.
Lyttelton Port Company and the
city council has released plans to
build the new $56 million cruise ship
berth, which will be custom built.
Lyttelton Harbour Business Association
chairman and SuperValue
owner Rob de Thier was at the announcement
and he said it was great
news for Lyttelton.
Shroom Room Cafe manager
Nikki Cruse said it would be “excellent
for business.”
“People on cruise ships have a lot
of money to spend here,” she said.
Since the February 22, 2011, earthquake
Lyttelton has not been able
to accommodate large cruise ships,
instead, the ships have been docking
at Akaroa.
The berth is expected to be
completed by the start of the 2019
season, which was welcomed news
to one Akaroa resident.
Victoria Andrews said she was relieved
the larger cruise ships would
“take the pressure off Akaroa.”

discusses why
it is important
to honour those
who served in
the numerous
wars New
Zealand fought in
ANZAC
ashion
DAY is one of the most
meaningful holidays in our
calendar, and one that means a
lot to me as a New Zealander,
and as someone with many
family members who served, and
some who made the ultimate
sacrifice.
I know many of you will have
attended Anzac Day services
around the Port Hills. We
know from previous years that
Gardening
attendance at these services is
growing, led by a big increase
from young people who have no
memory of our most tragic wars,
but who see the importance of
honouring our veterans and
fallen soldiers.
This year it was my honour
to speak and lay a wreath at the
Lyttelton service, lay a wreath at
otoring
the Heathcote Dawn Ceremony,
(above) and attend the 19th Battalion
and Armoured Regiments
and Halswell services.
This is the third of four years
of commemorations marking
World War 1. In October we
will turn our attention to
marking the centenary of the
horrific Battle of Passchendale.
On October 12, 1917, 845 New
Zealanders died – still more than
any other day. A further 2700
were wounded. With such great
loss it is important we continue
to reflect on the sacrifice made in
the fields of Belgium.
This year high school
students across the country
have been invited to enter a
competition to illustrate what
Passchendale means now. The
winner will receive $2000
and will travel to Belgium
for the commemorations. It
is an exciting opportunity to
engage today’s youth in telling
an important story in New
Zealand’s history.
With the commemorations
of World War 1, it is important
to recognise the sacrifices our
contemporary veterans who have
fought in the Gulf War, Solomon
Island’s and Afghanistan. It is a
good time to applaud those men
and women who walk among
us that have made sacrifices and
served our country.
This year our thoughts are
with the families of David Askin
and James Maaka, who have
just commemorated their first
Anzac Day without these men.
These two soldiers served their
country with distinction in both
military and civilian capacities,
before losing their lives in tragic
accidents on the Port Hills.
Safe summer overall
• By Gary Manch,
navigational safety
officer, Lyttelton
I HOPE you all had a good break
over the Easter period and
enjoyed some end of season time
on the water.
For me, it’s now time to reflect
on the past boating season and
prepare for the next. I have to
say, I’m very pleased with the
behaviour of most of the boaties
out there; it was a pretty safe
summer on the water.
Reports that I have received
from my safe-boating
enforcement officers have
generally been positive in terms
of boating behaviour.
During my season review
process, I have determined that
more education is needed for
those who drive jet skis. There
has been a noticeable increase in
the use of jet skis as recreational
craft throughout Canterbury
and we have had many instances
throughout summer where jet
skiers have flouted the bylaw
rules.
The first thing to be aware of
is that a jet ski is no different to
any other form of powered craft
on the water; the rules for boating
safely are exactly the same.
Some of the basic rules include
the following:
When towing a skier or biscuit
there must be an observer 10
years or older. The minimum
age for using any powerboat,
including a jet ski, is 15 years
or older so if there is a younger
person driving there needs to be
a person over 15 years who
is supervising and is in
immediate reach of the controls
at all times. This applies on all
waterways.
Life jackets of an approved
type must be worn when under
way. No exceptions!
Jet skis must be identified with
a registration number on either
side of the vessel at least 90mm
high, above the waterline, and
visible to the naked eye from
50m. The required registration
number is that of the trailer the
jet ski is towed on.
And just a quick note from me
to finish off: Those of you who
use the boat ramps at Moncks
Bay (the yacht club ramp) or
Scarborough (coastguard or
public ramp), when you transit
through to the sea it is a 5 knot
area right through the estuary
and then until you are 400m
from the beach at Shag Rock.
This 400m rule applies from the
New Brighton side of Shag Rock
along Sumner Beach through to
Scarborough.
Keep safe everyone!

Focused on warming
nFashion
up needy homes
This week
Green MP
Eugenie
Sage writes
about the
importance
of making the
Gardening
house warm
to save money and keep
members of the family
warm and healthy during
winter.
ONE OF the great things
about being an MP is
the range of community
organisations we engage
Motoring
with. Recently I visited Community
Energy Action at its
Tuam St offices. CEA does an
amazing job. It has insulated
more than 20,000 homes
since it was established in
1994. Its Curtain Bank has
provided lined curtains to
5000 homes to help keep out
draughts and keep homes
Tasty ites Bites
warm. If you need ideas on
how to double glaze windows
cheaply or draught stop
doors, then visit CEA’s small
“show home.”
More than 600,000 New
Zealand homes, 30,000 of
them in Canterbury have either
no, or inadequate insulation.
Cold, damp, mouldy
homes make life miserable
for the families living in
them and increase their
energy costs. They contribute
to children missing school
because they are sick, and
to at least 40,000 hospital
admissions annually. To me
that’s unacceptable.
I would like to see a major
increase in Government
funding to help retrofit these
houses with insulation and
clean heating but I don’t
expect that to be part of the
Government’s Budget 2017.
To help ensure people
can afford to switch on the
heater, the Green Party is
promoting a new winter
warm-up electricity payment.
It would cover 75 per
cent of the average increase
in power prices over the
winter months and help an
estimated 69,000 low income
Canterbury households pay
their winter power bills.
The winter time payments
(around $327 in Canterbury)
would be available to
households that earn under
$50,000 a year – the families
and people who need help
the most.
The “winter warm up”
payments are based on
similar programmes in the
United Kingdom, Canada,
the United States, and Australia.
Across New Zealand
the scheme is expected to
cost $112 million annually.
The Government has
received $1.3 billion from the
partial privatisation of our
energy companies so we see
it as only fair that we give a
little back to those who need
it most.
I believe home insulation,
clean heating, and ensuring
people can afford to heat
their homes are powerful
ways to improve quality of
life in winter and reduce
preventable hospital
admissions. I’m interested in
your views.
We said:
The city council has said a
planned $56 million cruise
ship berth will allow large
cruise ships to return to
Lyttelton Harbour
You said:
Ann Vallance – Cruise ships
are far to big for Akaroa. They
are in danger of destroying the
very places they are visiting. In
some places in Europe you can
have several of these monster
ships in one port alone. Bigger
is not always better. I think
it’s time some of these cruise
companies contributed to the
cost of the bigger berths and
increased infrastructure they
now require to cope with the
masses.
Sue Mumby – Don’t know
why Akaroa residents are moaning
They will miss the money.
John Gamblin – About
time, that will stop Akaroa
people from moaning.
Linda Blackwell – About
time, then it can be peaceful in
Akaroa again.
Bernadette Laing – Can’t
believe what some people in
Akaroa are saying, we were
so lucky to have them. When
the downturn happened some
business may have gone under.
I have heard things like: “We
can’t get our coffee as the shops
are full”. And this was the best;
“we can’t get a car park” need I
say anything more?
Neill Roberts – In order
to do this they will dredge the
harbour profusely and dump
the silt out at sea which will
then wash back in towards
Christchurch beaches. Water
quality at our beaches will
change. But hey there’s money
to be made so who really cares
– right?

“Following the earthquakes,

WORK: The

need 8400
protective cages
constructed by
winter.
Help needed for
Port Hills replant
RESTORATION work is about to begin
in Victoria Park, with more than 7000
plants needing to be replanted.
The park, on Dyers Pass Rd, was
partially destroyed in the Port Hills fires
in February and the section destroyed
needs replanting, to do this the city
council is hoping to involve volunteers in
the project.
Protective cages need to be put around
the newly planted trees to protect them
during the winter for a better chance of
survival and to stop them from being
eaten by hares.
The city council is calling for volunteers
to take part in making the cages, Port
Hills Ranger Di Carter said it was a big
task to get them finished before winter.
“There’s a lot of preparation work that
needs to be done before we can start
replanting and cage-making is just one of
the tasks we need to tackle. We’re probably
going to need about 8400 cages so it’s
a big job and one we’re hoping the public
will help us with,’’ Ms Carter said.
From now until May 13 the city council
will be holding daily cage-making
sessions at the Victoria Park ranger
headquarters where people can go along
with the help of the park rangers.
“We will be running morning and
afternoon sessions and providing all the
equipment needed. We can take up to 15
volunteers at each session and we welcome
kids getting involved, as long as they are
aged over 10,’’ Ms Carter said.

Kids get crafty and active
IT WAS a fun trip to the
Redcliffs Village Library for local
children when they took part in
some school holiday activities.
It was the first time the
programme has been run at the
new building with more than 12
children taking part.
The children made book
marks and Easter chicks before
listening to some stories read by
volunteer librarians. The event
concluded with a scavenger hunt
through the library looking for
chocolate treats.
The library is also now open
for longer on Thursday, from
10am-7pm and Saturday 10am-
12.30pm.
Shoreline Youth Trust also
hosted a range of activities. The
children had a go at tie-dying,
went to Inflatable World and
played football.
CRAFT: The children were careful while they made their
master pieces.
PLAY: Having fun jumping and playing at Mega Air.
SKILLS: Children at the Shoreline Youth Trust went to Olympia
Gym and learnt a few things about gymnastics.
PLAY: Georgia and Fletcher had fun running around
Inflatable World.
ARTY: Making colourful
bookmarks were also a part of the
holiday fun event.
ACTIVE: The good weather gave
the children a chance to get active
and play a game of football at
Sumner School.
ADVENTURE: Millie, Guy, Archie and Sam got to explore the
Christchurch Botanic Gardens in the warm weather.

Intercept try
costs Sumner
• By Gordon Findlater
AN EFFECTIVELY 14-point
intercept try midway through
the second half was the
back-breaker for Sumner in
Saturday’s Battle of the
Beaches.
New Brighton took the spoils
in the annual match at St Leonard
Square 28-13.
Sumner coach Martin Dodgson
described his team’s efforts
as energetic and enthusiastic.
However, a couple of moments
of brilliance from their seaside
rivals proved the difference.
Sumner held a slim 8-7
advantage at the break, with the
second half producing the bulk
of the action.
“The crucial moment was the
intercept try,” said Dodgson.
“The momentum was really in
our favour. We had an overlap,
so if the guy doesn’t catch it we
were under the sticks ourselves
so it was a 14-point turnaround.”
The game was predominantly
played up front. Dodgson
singled out the performance of
lock Thomas Manley, who came
into the game feeling unwell
but was in New Brighton’s face
for the entire 80min.
Saturday’s game also provided
the first start for Canadian
Logan Martin-Feek who stood
in at first-five in the absence of
Nik Cumming.
“He just had his 19th

Looking to bounce back
when they travel to Burnside
this weekend, the team face a
few challenges.
The team are expected to be
without a couple of key players
for the clash including star No 8
Dylan Nel who has been called
into the Crusaders as cover
for injured All Blacks captain
Kieran Read.
Domination rewards
Sumner surfer with win
SUMNER’S Harrison Whiteside
won his maiden NZ Surf Series
event by dominating last week’s
2degrees Men’s Canterbury
Championships at Gore Bay.
Whiteside, 21, posted a
16.57-point heat total out of a
possible 20 in the final to defeat
Anthony Hema, Tane Wallis and
Conor McLennan in the open
men’s division.
A number of other local
surfers also had strong results.
Neill Robb also grabbed a title,
winning the over 45 category.
There were also podium finishes
for Aaron Lock (over 35), Alan
Temoananui (over 28) and
William Wallace (longboard).
Known for going to the air
whenever possible, Whiteside
did not hold back in the final
boosting a big front side air
reverse to post a nine-point ride
and put a significant gap between
him and his three opponents.
While Whiteside took the
glory in the premier division, he
could not stop Raglan’s Taylor
Hutchison from notching up his
third win of the season in the
under 20 boys division.
Hutchison surfed to a
12.77-point heat total in the
final with Conor McLennan
going two places better than the
open division with a runnerup
finish ahead of Dunedin’s
Ruben Peyroux in third and
Christchurch’s Henry Hawke in
fourth.
Hutchison’s win leaves him
in second place on the overall
rankings still trailing Whiteside
but with one event up his sleeve
to catch the Sumner surfer.
The dual-sanctioned Surfing
New Zealand, South Island
Surfing Association event was
contested at Gore Bay for the
its entirety after New Brighton
dawned to a calm ocean for three
straight days.
Participants across the eight
divisions vied for $9000 in cash
and prizes.

Drifting through Fiordland
FAST
• By Mike Yardley
CRUISING through our fiords
had been lingering on my wishlist
for quite some time.
I revere Fiordland and its
formidable terrain, which
produces its own weather pattern,
with an annual rainfall index
measured in metres.
Recently, I boarded Princess
Cruises’ latest liner to potter
around our coastline, Emerald
Princess, which is a novel way to
appreciate the beauty of your own
country.
Sailing overnight from Port
Chalmers, I awoke early to grizzled
misty skies, as we entered the
remote, untouched reaches of our
biggest fiord, Dusky Sound. Fortified
with freshly brewed coffee,
I ventured out on the promenade
deck, as we glided by cinematic
mountain ranges, garlanded in
wispy long white clouds.
Fleetingly, a flash of frolicking
dolphins was lapped up with
palpable passenger delight. In
stark contrast to the heavy swells
rounding the South Otago Coast,
the inky waters of Dusky Sound
were millpond-smooth, as if the
ship was gliding on an ice rink.
To marvel at this masterpiece of
grand-scale nature from the vantage
point of a cruise ship really
is quite breath-taking. Fiordland
SPECTACULAR: Cruising into one of the fiords on the Emerald
Princess and passing by Bowen Falls.
boasts 14 fiords and after Dusky,
our next assignment was the
exalted grandeur of Doubtful
Sound.
Entering its snout, this skypiercing
cathedral of sheer granite
walls feels positively Jurassic,
otherworldly and all-consuming.
The live soundtrack of lofty
waterfalls cascading down the
sheep granite slopes serenaded
our arrival, while lumbering fur
seals wallowed on rocks by the
entrance to the fiord.
The sheer, rugged landscape
of towering mountains, clad
in primeval rainforest had me
half-expecting a brachiosaurus to
shuffle into view.
The heroic dimensions and
the untouched beauty of the
fiord that makes Doubtful such
a profound encounter. Later in
the day, the clouds cleared and
spectacular sunshine bathed us in
warmth, just as we entered Fiordland’s
most famous poster-child,
Milford Sound.
The recent precipitation turned
on a giant waterworks spectacle,
with a vast curtain of waterfalls
thundering down the rock faces
to the sea.
I spied the vein-like patterning
of Bowen Falls turning on a
splashy show, beyond the ship’s
stern. On starboard side, the
backside of Mitre Peak, thrust
its majestic presence towards
the heavens – the world’s tallest
mountain to rise directly from
the sea.
The thick forests that carpeted
the mountains took on an emerald
hue in the golden autumn
sun. But for all its wraparound
photogenic splendour, it’s your
relative sense of insignificance
that comes into sharp relief, when
thrust into the bosom of such
ravishing, grand-scale majesty.
I felt like a speck of life in a
landscape carved for giants.
And the 113,000 tonnes of the
15-storeyed Emerald Princess
was similarly rendered comically
small, in the clutches of such
granite-walled grandeur. Drifting
through the fiords, retired
Department of Conservation
senior ranger, Ian Thorne, was
our expert guide with a treasurechest
of nuggets to share with
us, after clocking up 35 years of
conservation work in Fiordland.
Ian specialised in biodiversity
work with endangered birds and
leading pest eradication programmes.
It was a thrill to see
Fiordland’s offshore islands upclose,
which are veritable arks for
our most endangered species.
Richard Henry was one of
pioneering conservationists,
transferring kakapo and kiwi to
islands in Dusky Sound, over a
FACTS
•Princess Cruises operates
a series of Australasian
and South Pacific cruises,
with five ships currently
home-ported down
under. An extensive
schedule of sailings into
Fiordland will resume
later in the year, in the
2017/18 summer season.
For more information and
cruise bookings, see your

century ago. Many of the kakapo
call Anchor Island home, which
is predator free. Ian has worked
extensively on its neighbour,
Resolution Island, eradicating
stoats in pursuit of predator-free
status, too.
Passing by Wet Jacket Arm, Ian
remarked that this is where 10
Canadian moose were let loose
in the forest, in 1910. In spite
of persistent rumours of moose
sightings, no evidence has surfaced
that they’ve survived.
As we exited Dusky, we drifted
by another DOC sanctuary,
Breaksea Island, which clocked
up a world-first for its successful
rat eradication programme.
For all of the stupidity wrought
by our forebears, introducing
pests to our country, the tireless
endeavours to safeguard our
natural species in Fiordland’s
dedicated sanctuaries is patriotically
uplifting to see.

Driven
Fresh driveline for Peugeot 2008
• By Ross Kiddie
I’M A firm believer in the twowheel-drive
sport utility vehicle
market.
The reason being is that most
SUV buyers have no intention of
taking their cars/wagons into a
loose surface environment, there
is mostly little need for fourwheel-drive.
A lot of manufacturers are
into that concept and they are
increasing the number of 2WD
SUVs. Peugeot has just launched
a new crossover/SUV/wagon –
the 2008. While its concept has
been around for a few years, the
newcomer has a fresh driveline
and a fairly hefty upgrade.
Loosely based around the 208
platform, the 2008 is an SUV of
mini proportions at just over 4m,
but it has a practical interior that
is capable of transporting awkward
loads with adaptable and
versatile rear seat configurations.
It is also a comfortable car for
four adults, it’s a bit of squeeze
width-wise for three adults in the
rear but there’s no shortage of
head or leg room, and the 2008
is clever in the way it translates
its limited space into occupant
comfort.
The 2008 lands here in two

The Lucky One
by Caroline Overington
The compulsive new thriller from the author of the
bestselling The One Who Got Away.
Keep your secrets. Tell your lies. The gripping new
psychological thriller from the author of the bestselling
The One Who Got Away.
An old castle ... For more than 150 years, a grand house
known as Alden Castle has stood proudly in the rolling hills of
California’s wine country, home to a family weighed down by secrets
and debt. A fresh body ... When the castle is sold, billionaire developers
move in, only to discover one skeleton after another - including a fresh
corpse - rotting in the old family cemetery. An unsolved mystery ... As three
generations of the well-respected Alden-Stowe family come under scrutiny,
police unearth a twisted web of rivalries, alliances, deceit, and treachery.
A gold-digger wife, a demented patriarch, a daughter in the grip of first
love ... Who has lied? Who will survive? And who, amidst all the horror
and betrayal, is the lucky one?
Midnight Blue
by Simone van der Vlugt
Amsterdam 1654: a dangerous secret threatens to destroy a young
widow’s new life.
Following the sudden death of her husband, twenty-five year old Catrin
leaves her small village and takes a job as housekeeper to the successful
Van Nulandt merchant family. Amsterdam is a city at the peak of its
powers: science and art are flourishing in the Golden Age and Dutch ships
bring back exotic riches from the Far East.
When a figure from her past threatens her new life, Catrin flees to Delft.
There, her painting talent earns her a chance as a pottery painter. Slowly,
the workshop begins to develop a new type of pottery to rival the coveted
Chinese porcelain – and Delft Blue is born. But when tragedy strikes,
Catrin has a hard choice to make.
Rich and engrossing, Midnight Blue is perfect for fans of Tulip Fever and

Peugeot rates the 1192cc unit at
a healthy 81kW and 205Nm. Not
only are they high outputs for
engine size, it’s the area where the
power is developed that is most
interesting. Peak power comes
in at just 5500rpm and maximum
torque is available from
1500rpm, both low in the rev
band and that is what you need
in all engines, the ability to haul

Fuel usage – 4.8l/100km
weight for the 2008, that’s quite
light, offering a healthy powerto-weight
ratio.
The gearing has been structured
so that there is reasonable
acceleration to highway speed
with a tallish top gear so that the
engine is relaxed at 100km/h,
turning over slowly at 2000rpm.
At that speed the engine is sipping
fuel at the rate of just fivelitres
per 100km (56mpg), that
promoted a 7.2l/100km (39mpg)
average during my time behind
the wheel. These are satisfactory
figures but are a little distant to
Peugeot’s 4.8l/100km (58mpg)
combined cycle claim, although
my driving style doesn’t augur
well for fuel economy.
On the subject of figures, the
2008 is lively enough, it will reach
100km/h from a standstill in just
over 10sec and will complete
a highway overtake in 6.9sec
(80km/h to 120km/h).
Peugeot has always had a reputation
for ride/handling quality
and that has been engineered
into the 2008. It has a compliant,
moderately-firmed ride with a
handling feel that is moderately
sporty. The chassis isn’t disturbed
by mid-corner bumps or road
deviations, the suspension does
a good job of keeping body balance.
Providing the grip are 205/50
Good Year tyres, according to the
casing they are worded all season
and during my time with the test
car they were certainly put to the
test on wet surfaces, heavy rain
lowered grip levels substantially.
Nevertheless, the entire car felt
secured to the
road and steering feel is another
Peugeot hallmark, the 2008 as
a package constantly feels controlled
and safe.
The latter of course is fivestar
rated and sits beside a
healthy level of specification,
major features include satellite
navigation, touch screen
infotainment, cruise control and
speed limiter and high quality
trim materials.
The new 2008 is an example of
a good car made better, the new
driveline is certainly a case of less
is more.

4 bedrooms | 2 bathrooms | 2 living rooms | 2 car-garage | 2 off-street parks | Listing # SMT 10120
Thoughtfully designed this beautiful
spacious family home is one you must view.
Near two years old, the family focused 222m2
home incorporates a layout conducive
to entertaining and an easy care lifestyle
with excellent outdoor flow to a sheltered
courtyard and fully fenced grounds.
Set on a generous 650m2 section, this

Charlesworth Reserve’s kitesurfing and
windsurfing base, and only a short drive to
the Port Hills, there’ll be no excuse for the
family not to enjoy the great outdoors. All
amenities are close; Ferrymead shopping
centre is just 15 minutes’ walk away, offering
restaurants, and shopping. The Tannery,
with its entertainment and boutique
shopping emporium are also nearby.
Tucked neatly away in a quiet cul-de-sac
environment amongst other new properties,
your children can enjoy the community and
wonderful educational opportunities being
zoned for Mt Pleasant School.
Easy drive on access and off street parking
with double internal access garage with drive
through, perfect for trailers or vehicles.
Our vendors minds are set, and they now
