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

had an impressive win at the NZ

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

132-year-old Lyttelton church

gets heritage category upgrade


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

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

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

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.”

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

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

You said:

are far to big for Akaroa. They

have several of these monster

it’s time some of these cruise

now require to cope with the

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?

WORK: The

need 8400

protective cages

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.

children when they took part in

some school holiday activities.

It was the first time the

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.

CALL UP: Dylan Nel has been a standout for Sumner over the

last 12 months. He is expected to be unavailable on Saturday

after being called into the Crusaders as Injury cover.

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

birthday on Monday and he

played like he was 30. He’s dark

because he missed a couple of

kicks but jeepers he drove the

team around the field like a

veteran,” said Dodgson.

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.

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.

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

it is a strong, capable power plant

THIS BOOK

which thrills with its honesty.

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

from low revolutions. Boost from

the turbocharger is also constant,

there is little lag at any point.

If you also add in the benefit

of a six-speed automatic, there’s

never a point where you think

the gearing and engine output

aren’t matched, the driveline is

fluid and responsive.

• Performance –

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.

REAL ESTATE

Near new, family home in Brookhaven

19 Mollymawk Place, Brookhaven

Deadline Sale: All offers will be presented on Tuesday 9th May 2017 (unless sold prior)

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

sparkling gem offers two living areas

flowing from the fully appointed kitchen to

capitalize on the use of space. Large living

area windows allow the sun to stream in and

warm the home along with its heat pump.

The spacious master bedroom boasts an

ensuite and walk in wardrobe, plus a separate

bathroom with luxurious bath which caters

for the rest of the family.

Situated merely a few minutes’ walk from

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

offer this home to a brand new owner. Be

quick.

Selling via Deadline Sale, all offers will be

presented on Tuesday 9th May 2017 (unless

sold prior). Those seriously considering its

purchase are advised to register their interest

as this property may be sold at any time.

Please phone for viewing times or for a

private viewing contact Debra Hakaraia of
