Murray<br />
Thacker<br />
passes away<br />
• By Caitlin Miles<br />
OKAINS BAY identity Murray Thacker<br />
has died.<br />
The 83-year-old, whose great grand<br />
parents were early settlers in the Okains<br />
<strong>Bay</strong> area, passed away last week.<br />
He was best known for his work with<br />
the Okains <strong>Bay</strong> Maori and Colonial Museum,<br />
which he founded.<br />
He collected many historic items over<br />
the decades for the museum and he was<br />
heavily involved in the annual Waitangi<br />
Day celebrations.<br />
He was awarded a Queen’s Service<br />
Medal for his work.<br />
Mr Thacker was once described as<br />
being ‘pure Okains’.<br />
He was born in 1933 and grew up in<br />
Okains <strong>Bay</strong>, He attended the local school<br />
and began his collecting interest of historic<br />
items while there.<br />
He went onto Christchurch Boys’ High<br />
School, trained as a blacksmith, and<br />
returned to Okains <strong>Bay</strong> and developed a<br />
successful Hereford stud.<br />
The Okains <strong>Bay</strong> Maori and Colonial<br />
Museum began as his private collection<br />
in his own home, but when the opportunity<br />
arose, he purchased the disused<br />
Okains <strong>Bay</strong> Cheese Factory in 1968 and<br />
spent the next nine years setting up the<br />
museum.<br />

FROM<br />
THE<br />
EDITOR’S<br />
DESK<br />
MURRAY THACKER was a<br />
tireless worker for Banks Peninsula,<br />
particularly Okains <strong>Bay</strong>.<br />
Last week the 83-year-old passed<br />
away (see page 1) and tomorrow<br />
he will be farewelled fittingly in<br />
Okains <strong>Bay</strong>.<br />
Over the decades Murray collected<br />
and preserved many historic<br />
items for what would one day be<br />
placed in the museum he founded.<br />
He was a generational Okains bay<br />
person - his ancestors were among<br />
the early settlers.<br />
On another note congratulations<br />
to surfer Harrison Whiteside and<br />
other Sumner board riders for<br />
standing out at the recent Kaikoura<br />
cold water classic.<br />
Not so good though for the Sumner<br />
rugby boys who have missed<br />
out on a top six spot in the division<br />
1 metro competition.<br />
They won five on the trot - good<br />
form to take into the div 2 play-offs.<br />
Good luck. - Barry Clarke<br />

Award for conservation<br />
HARD WORK by the Banks<br />
Peninsula Conservation Trust<br />
has paid off.<br />
The trust won the community<br />
leadership award at the Green<br />
Ribbon Awards for its extensive<br />
conservation work in the Port<br />
Hills.<br />
The awards evening was held<br />
at a Parliamentary function<br />
co-hosted by Environment<br />
Minister Nick Smith and<br />
Conservation Minister Maggie<br />
Barry.<br />
The trust was formed in 2001<br />
out of a project called Wildside<br />
set up in the 1980s by a farmer<br />
wanting to protect the blue<br />
penguins wandering onto his<br />
property.<br />
Among the trust’s work is<br />
liaising with farmers and other<br />
groups to protect wildlife with<br />
predator traps, keeping streams<br />
clean and looking after reserves<br />
on Banks Peninsula.<br />
Trust general manager<br />
•From page 1<br />
This included the relocation<br />
and restoration of many<br />
colonial historic buildings,<br />
forging links with Maori crafts<br />
HELPING: Rebecca Parish and Marie Haley from the<br />
‘Wildside’ project accepted the <strong>2017</strong> Green Ribbon Award for<br />
community leadership on behalf of the trust.<br />
Maree Burnett said the award<br />
is national recognition and a<br />
testament to the efforts of the<br />
dedicated Wildside community<br />
and landowners.<br />
Wildside still exists as part<br />
oft the trust.<br />
The project has seen more<br />
than 700 predator traps set over<br />
7000ha, which has enabled a<br />
dramatic turn-around in sea<br />
bird species in the area.<br />
Today, around 25 per cent<br />
of the area has been protected<br />
through covenants and reserves,<br />
allowing the forest to<br />
regenerate. The area now boasts<br />
the largest private reserve in<br />
New Zealand – Hinewai –<br />
which covers 1570ha.<br />
Said co-ordinator Marie Haley:<br />
“We are extremely proud of<br />
the years of hard work that have<br />
been recognised in this prize<br />
and our role as such a forward<br />
thinking and acting community<br />
that is far ahead in terms<br />
of species protection, protecting<br />
private forest habitat, predator<br />
control, and now, importantly,<br />
freshwater protection,” she said.<br />
Historian and museum founder passes away<br />
people and commissioning the<br />
construction of the Whakaata<br />
and Pataka and the erection of<br />
the Whare Taonga.<br />
Mr Thacker was awarded a<br />
Queen’s Service Medal shortly<br />
after gifting the museum<br />
collection. In 2009, he was<br />
honoured by the Canterbury<br />
History Foundation with the<br />
A.C Rhodes History Medal.<br />
His funeral service will be<br />
held in the Old School on<br />
Okains <strong>Bay</strong> Rd tomorrow at<br />
1.30pm.<br />
In Brief<br />
PLAN TO CHANGE Reserve<br />
Concern over Britomart Memorial<br />
Reserve not portraying the<br />
significance of the area has led the<br />
Bank Peninsula Community Board<br />
to look into a possible landscape<br />
plan. City council staff advised the<br />
community board that the Akaroa<br />
reserve does not clearly portray<br />
the importance and significance<br />
of the area. The memorial inside<br />
the reserve was unveiled in 1898 to<br />
commemorate raising the British<br />
flag in 1840. There is a statue, with<br />
a small plaque and a flag.<br />
NEW CAR PARK<br />
A car park will be constructed<br />
at Robinsons <strong>Bay</strong> Reserve. The<br />
reserve committee has worked<br />
with the city council to plan a car<br />
park for the area to make it easier<br />
for people using the reserve, as<br />
it can get wet and muddy during<br />
the winter. There is a historic old<br />
school site at the reserve, which the<br />
public access from via a short walk.<br />
PLAY EQUIPMENT UPGRADE<br />
Okains <strong>Bay</strong> Reserve will get new<br />
play equipment Swings and a slide<br />
are expected to be delivered to the<br />
reserve by the end of the month.<br />
It is expected to cost $18,000 for<br />
the equipment and $10,000 for<br />
the installation including safety<br />
surfacing. The current equipment<br />
has reached the end of its life and<br />
needs to be updated.<br />

Redcliffs residents surveyed<br />
• By Caitlin Miles<br />
A SURVEY on the Redcliffs<br />
residents’ response to the<br />
Kaikoura earthquake and<br />
tsunami has been carried out.<br />
Following the 7.8 Kaikoura<br />
earthquake which struck shortly<br />
after midnight on November <strong>14</strong><br />
a tsunami warning was issued<br />
for residents living around the<br />
Christchurch coastline.<br />
It caused confusion for people<br />
in the area, unsure of where<br />
or when to go. As a result, the<br />
Redcliffs Residents’ Association<br />
decided to set up an emergency<br />
response team and carry out<br />
a survey in the area on how<br />
people responded and what they<br />
thought of the planning.<br />
The survey was distributed to<br />
about 250 residents through an<br />
email mailing list and several<br />
hard copies were also distributed.<br />
From the survey 50 in<br />
total responded with different<br />
numbers answering different<br />
questions as they felt they applied<br />
to them.<br />
The responses were analysed,<br />
but percentages are only approximate<br />
due to the small<br />
overall numbers.<br />
Redcliffs Residents Association<br />
WARNING: The lagacy of the Kaikoura quake and the potential for a tsunami.<br />
secretary Pat McIntosh said the<br />
main reason for carrying out<br />
the consultation was to see how<br />
people reacted as the emergency<br />
response team plans ahead for<br />
the possibility of other disasters.<br />
“The reactions will certainly<br />
influence our plan as we move<br />
forward,” Dr McIntosh said.<br />
Survey responses<br />
Is your house in the evacuation<br />
zone?<br />
Two out of 49 people answered,<br />
“Don’t know”.<br />
Did you evacuate your house<br />
and by what means?<br />
Six people decided not to go,<br />
four were not in the evacuation<br />
zone anyway, one said they<br />
might have gone but they did not<br />
have a plan. All 35 who left their<br />
homes evacuated by car. No-one<br />
evacuated on foot, by bicycle or<br />
by motorbike. No-one said they<br />
were unable to go.<br />
What time did you leave the<br />
house?<br />
The question did not specifically<br />
ask if the evacuation was<br />
before or after the activation,<br />
however, 16 people also said they<br />
responded to the warning sirens.<br />
Nearly half (16/35) of those<br />
who evacuated left within one<br />
hour of the earthquake, ie before<br />
the official tsunami warning was<br />
issued, and at least 23 of 35 think<br />
they had gone before 2 a.m.<br />
What route did you take?<br />
Twenty five went up the hill<br />
behind Redcliffs or to Mt Pleasant,<br />
four went into town over the<br />
Ferrymead Bridge and five went<br />
to Sumner or somewhere else.<br />
Did you take any . . .?<br />
One-third of people went<br />
by themselves or with other<br />
adults in their house, one-third<br />
took children, one-third took<br />
neighbours, relatives and<br />
people not living with them or<br />
vulnerable people. A quarter also<br />
took pets.<br />
How did you know to<br />
evacuate?<br />
Some people gave more than<br />
one answer here, 41 people responded<br />
to this question.<br />

News<br />
over quake response<br />
The nature of the earthquake<br />
itself prompted evacuation for<br />
seven people, advice from radio<br />
or TV for 12, advice from social<br />
media or the internet was also<br />
12, other advice – like being<br />
contacted by friends or relatives<br />
for 13 and 16 responded to the<br />
warning sirens.<br />
Did you encounter any problems<br />
with your evacuation?<br />
Nearly 90 per cent of respondents<br />
did not describe<br />
any problems. However, there<br />
were several comments about a<br />
partner not wanting to go, one<br />
respondent had problems with<br />
their toddler and infant who<br />
were unsettled in the car and<br />
one noted that the road was impassable<br />
higher up as cars were<br />
“parked so intensively it had<br />
blocked the road; people were<br />
also driving very erratically”.<br />
How did you know when to<br />
return home?<br />
Some people gave more than<br />
one answer. Forty people answered<br />
this question.<br />
Half of the people that responded<br />
to this question said<br />
they waited for advice from<br />
radio and TV, six got advice<br />
from social media/the internet.<br />
Fifteen said they decided for<br />
WAY OUT: Everyone who evacuated left by car, which<br />
could congest roads like Beachville Rd in future evacuation<br />
situations.<br />
themselves. Several waited at<br />
the cordon and two people<br />
commented that the sirens<br />
stopped and they took this to<br />
mean they could return.<br />
Would you do anything differently<br />
next time?<br />
There were 42 responses to<br />
this question.<br />
Fourteen said they would not<br />
do anything differently. Twenty<br />
eight said they would. There<br />
were 18 comments about going<br />
sooner and not waiting for the<br />
sirens. People described making<br />
new plans following this experience.<br />
Two people would evacuate<br />
across town to get away<br />
from the noise of the sirens and<br />
one would invite more people to<br />
stay with them.<br />
Summary<br />
From the findings Dr McIntosh<br />
said it was encouraging<br />
that only two people said they<br />
did not know if they were in the<br />
evacuation zone, as this suggests<br />
a high level of awareness<br />
of local risk.<br />
Dr McIntosh said there were<br />
a large number of comments<br />
regarding the initial confusion<br />
about whether or not an evacuation<br />
was needed and about the<br />
difficulty in knowing when it<br />
was safe to return home.<br />
Many people also commented<br />
that they would go earlier in<br />
any similar event in future.<br />
An emergency response<br />
co-ordinator has also been<br />
appointed to link Redcliffs, Mt<br />
Pleasant and Sumner response<br />
teams together for future emergency<br />
planning.<br />
In Brief<br />
TRACK ENHANCEMENTS<br />
Changes to the Urumau Reserve<br />
track have been proposed by the<br />
Allandale Reserve Management<br />
Committee. One option would keep<br />
most of the existing track through<br />
the reserve but would add steps<br />
and landings in the steeper areas.<br />
The other option would include a<br />
new route, which would involve<br />
traversing gullies and would require a<br />
suspended bridge as well as steps and<br />
landings. The first option would cost<br />
$30,000 and the second $50,000.<br />
WORKING GROUP BREAKS UP<br />
The Little River Issues Working<br />
Party has disbanded. The party was<br />
started after a report was prepared<br />
called Issues and Options for Little<br />
River: A Scoping Document. The<br />
group was set up in 2015 to address<br />
the issues raised in the document. A<br />
potential co-ordinator may join the<br />
Little River Wairewa Community<br />
Trust to continue working with the<br />
community on evolving issues from<br />
the document.<br />
ROAD CLOSURES<br />
Foster Tce in Lyttelton will reopen<br />
on Tuesday after being closed for a<br />
month while ultra-fast broadband<br />
was installed. As work on the<br />
installation continues, roads around<br />
the area will be closed and reopened.<br />
Gilmour Tce from Randolph Tce will<br />
be closed from <strong>June</strong> 21 to July 20 so<br />

DIG IN: The guests enjoyed the three-course meal that was put on to celebrate the<br />
success of the market.<br />
TO CELEBRATE the<br />
community working together to<br />
create the Mt Pleasant Farmers’<br />
Market, a long lunch was held to<br />
celebrate its birthday.<br />
The market was set up six<br />
years ago to support people<br />
after the February 22, 2011,<br />
earthquake – and it’s still going,<br />
offering the same support.<br />
With no supermarkets close<br />
by and a limited amount of food<br />
and water available, Mt Pleasant<br />
resident Tom Davies decided to<br />
set up a market to help people<br />
get what they needed.<br />
Since it started the market’s<br />
key role has shifted a little.<br />
While there isn’t an emergency<br />
associated with it any more, it<br />
still provides people with what<br />
they need.<br />
The long lunch was held to<br />
celebrate this and involved fresh<br />
produce often sold at the market<br />
through a three-course meal<br />
created by local chef Kris Buist.<br />
Event organiser Linda Rutland<br />
said: “Kris was incredible, she<br />
produced the most wonderful<br />
meal for 60 people under<br />
difficult personal circumstances.<br />
The devotion to her community<br />
and her professionalism<br />
was incredible,” Ms Rutland<br />
said.<br />
A team of volunteers helped in<br />
the kitchen and served the food.<br />

greenery from Trees for<br />
Canterbury as their contribution.<br />
Ms Rutland said even after all<br />
this time the market was still<br />
widely used by locals.<br />
She said since the event was<br />
such a success, they are now<br />
planning for next year’s event.<br />
Money raised from the lunch<br />
has gone back into the market to<br />
help improve it.<br />

Akaroa clock to tick again<br />
• By Caitlin Miles<br />
THE ICONIC Akaroa Service<br />
Centre clock will stay in storage<br />
until the centre repairs are<br />
completed next year.<br />
Akaroa residents have been<br />
wondering what happened to<br />
the clock, which<br />
prompted the<br />
Banks Peninsula<br />
Community<br />
Board to ask<br />
city council staff<br />
where it was.<br />
Andrew<br />
Rutledge<br />
Community<br />
board<br />
chairwoman<br />
Christine Wilson said it was a<br />
matter of “curiosity” that lead<br />
them to ask the question.<br />
City council head of parks<br />
Andrew Rutledge said the clock<br />
is in storage with a horologist – a<br />
person who works on clocks.<br />
That is where the clock will<br />
stay until the city council<br />
completes repairs on the service<br />
centre – which is expected to be<br />
finished in February next year.<br />
The service centre was<br />
damaged in the February<br />
22, 2011, earthquake. The<br />
clock was removed from the<br />
centre following the quake for<br />
conservation work and to check<br />
all the internal mechanisms and<br />
paint the exterior.<br />
Community board member<br />
Janis Haley said the clock has<br />
been a part of the service centre<br />
since she was a child.<br />
“It is very iconic for the area,<br />
ever since I was a kid it has been<br />
there,” Ms Haley said.<br />
It cost $8047 to carry out the<br />
conservation work on the clock.<br />
Repair work on the service<br />
centre began in April last year<br />
and was expected to be finished<br />
by the start of this year, but has<br />
been delayed<br />
The building is now at 100<br />
per cent of the new building<br />
standard but remains closed<br />
while internal fit outs and plans<br />
are done.<br />
Mr Rutledge said the interior<br />
scope of the works had changed<br />
and the city council needed to<br />
consider all of the users and<br />
stakeholders.<br />
He said the process required<br />
considerable consultation then a<br />
REPAIRED:<br />
The Akaroa<br />
Service<br />
Centre clock<br />
has been<br />
repaired<br />
and is being<br />
stored until<br />
the centre<br />
repairs<br />
have been<br />
completed.<br />
redesign.<br />
As a result, the completion<br />
date was pushed out until next<br />
year.<br />
The first stage of the project<br />
involved scaffolding the building<br />
and making it weather tight,<br />
then contractors began the<br />
external repairs to the roof and<br />
external painting..<br />
The city council budgeted<br />
$965,000 for the project. Mr<br />
Rutledge said $907,000 has been<br />
spent on the repairs so far.<br />
Lyttelton sewer<br />
project starts<br />
next month<br />
• By Caitlin Miles<br />
WORK ON the $52.3 million<br />
Lyttelton wastewater project will<br />
begin next month.<br />
The first phase of the city council<br />
project will involve the installation<br />
of the sewer pipe through<br />
the Lyttelton Tunnel.<br />
New Zealand Transport Agency,<br />
which manages the tunnel, has<br />
engaged McConnell Dowel to do<br />
the work.<br />
It will be carried out because<br />
the resource consent that currently<br />
allows for wastewater to be<br />
discharged into Lyttelton <strong>Harbour</strong><br />
is going to expire, along with<br />
the Governors <strong>Bay</strong> and Diamond<br />
<strong>Harbour</strong> wastewater treatment<br />
plants.<br />
An Environment Court<br />
decision meant the city council<br />
needed to find a new way to treat<br />
the wastewater.<br />
The new plan involves buried<br />
submarine pipelines from the<br />
Governors <strong>Bay</strong> and Diamond<br />
<strong>Harbour</strong>’s wastewater treatment<br />
plants to a new pump station on<br />
Simeon Quay by the Lyttelton<br />
road tunnel portal and through to<br />
Ferrymead and on to the Bromley<br />
treatment plant.<br />

Heathcote Valley pupils after<br />
odd jobs to fund school camp<br />
PERFORMERS: Year 8 pupils Annelise<br />
Clark and Coby Jansen performed an<br />
original song and covers outside St<br />
Martins New World, raising $63.90 for their<br />
school camp.<br />
PARENTS OF pupils from<br />
Heathcote Valley School<br />
are encouraging their<br />
children to raise money to<br />
cover their own camp fees.<br />
The year 7 and 8 pupils<br />
are in the final stages of<br />
planning for the end of<br />
year camp. They will spend<br />
four days at Peel Forest<br />
Eco Lodge learning teamwork,<br />
self-management,<br />
confronting self-doubt and<br />
learning more about the<br />
environment.<br />
The camp is often seen<br />
as the highlight for the<br />
senior pupils every year.<br />
However, it’s not a cheap<br />
experience. It costs $350<br />
per pupil, which parents<br />
have usually paid and<br />
fundraised for.<br />
This year is different<br />
though; the school and<br />
pupils’ parents are encouraging<br />
the children to get<br />
involved in the fundraising<br />
efforts.<br />
The school is asking the<br />
Heathcote Valley community<br />
to offer any jobs the<br />
11 and 12-year-olds could<br />
handle, such as stacking<br />
wood, painting fences,<br />
cleaning cars, and raking<br />
leaves. The school has an<br />
hourly rate of $10 an hour<br />
or a set amount for a larger<br />
job.<br />
The pupils are getting<br />
on board with the project<br />
– they have come up with<br />
many more great ideas,<br />
such as bake sales, busking<br />
and dog walking. Some are<br />
already under way.<br />
To encourage the pupils<br />
further, there are also<br />
prizes for those who raise<br />
large sums of money. If<br />
students raise more than<br />
$350 the extra money will<br />
then go into a general fund<br />
to support pupils who are<br />
unable to attend due to<br />
financial hardship.<br />
For the children’s safety,<br />
they must be accompanied<br />
by a parent or guardian<br />
to the job and it is the responsibility<br />
of that parent<br />
or guardian to be comfortable<br />
with the arrangements<br />
and their safety.<br />
If you have some jobs<br />
you think the pupils could<br />
do, phone the school on<br />
384 1058 and leave your<br />
name and number. They<br />
will call back and get a job<br />

Lyttelton pupils plan outdoor learning space<br />
• By Caitlin Miles<br />
THE CREATION of an outdoor<br />
learning space is the latest plan<br />
for Lyttelton Primary School.<br />
Principal Brendan Wright said<br />
an empty patch of grass at the<br />
school was a good spot to create<br />
an outdoor learning space.<br />
Mr Wright said the first thing<br />
they had to do was figure out<br />
what activities would best suit<br />
the spot.<br />
“We identified that a learning<br />
space of some sort was the main<br />
thing,” Mr Wright said.<br />
The pupils have suggested<br />
several ideas as to what could be<br />
included in the space, including<br />
a small garden, quiet area to<br />
reflect and think, seating and<br />
possibly even pizza ovens.<br />
“If it’s a lovely sunny day, it<br />
might be nice to be working<br />
outside, and we want somewhere<br />
to be able to do it,” he said.<br />
Mr Wright said since Lyttelton<br />
was an enviroschool, the space<br />
needs to incorporate nature and<br />
have a positive effect on the surrounding<br />
environment.<br />
The school has decided to<br />
carry out consultation and invite<br />
parents and the wider Lyttelton<br />
community to have their say<br />
on what they would like to see<br />
included.<br />
Mr Wright said they hope<br />
to get lots on interest from the<br />
community before closing the<br />
consultation.<br />
He said he was already aware<br />
of several “connections” within<br />
the community which were<br />
interested in being involved<br />
and putting the plan into action<br />
once the details have been<br />
finalised.<br />
CREATIVE: Part<br />
of the area which<br />
Lyttelton School<br />
hopes to turn<br />
into an outdoor<br />
learning space. <br />

CRAFTY: Van Asch student Kirstin Reid with some 3D printer creations. <br />
Using 3D printing technology<br />
to alleviate hearing aid stigma<br />
A GROUP of students from<br />
van Asch Deaf Education<br />
Centre turned their design<br />
ideas into 3D printed<br />
reality.<br />
The six students aged<br />
17 to 20, who are either<br />
deaf or hard of hearing,<br />
took part in a course ran<br />
through the city libraries to<br />
extend their knowledge in<br />
3D printing.<br />
They now design and<br />
produce 3D printed work<br />
of their own.<br />
City council learning<br />
specialist Danny McNeil<br />
gave the students lessons in<br />
how to design their own<br />
3D printing ideas along<br />
with the help of an<br />
interpreter.<br />
They’ve made mementoes<br />
for themselves, such as<br />
badges and bookmarks<br />
and prototypes of fun<br />
education resources, which<br />
they hope could be used by<br />
deaf children around the<br />
country.<br />
At the moment, they are<br />
prototypes, butvan Asch<br />
Deaf Education Centre<br />
teacher Glenn Dolby says<br />
it’s possible they could<br />
be mass produced in the<br />
future.<br />
They include brightly<br />
coloured robots that can<br />
be used to teach primary<br />
school children colours,<br />
and fun toy hearing aids<br />
that can be put on toys to<br />
help remove the hearing<br />
aid stigma some young<br />
people experience.<br />
Mr Dolby says the course<br />
and their work since has<br />
“broadened their dreams<br />
and their ideas of art.”<br />
“It’s given them a taste<br />
of what computers and<br />
printers are capable of.<br />
One of the students is now<br />
studying design at Hagley<br />
College. For them to see<br />
their ideas go from the<br />
computer to something<br />
tangible in their hands is<br />
quite powerful,” Mr Dolby<br />
said.<br />
Mr McNeil said it has<br />
been inspirational to see<br />
what the students can<br />
create with the skills<br />
they’ve learned.<br />
“Libraries help provide<br />
access to emerging<br />
technologies in the form<br />
of sharing knowledge and<br />
facilities, and that’s worth<br />
celebrating.”<br />
The centre also has a<br />
small 3D printer with<br />
limited capability.<br />

Your Local Views<br />
Make your opinion known<br />
on the Redcliffs School site<br />
List MP for the<br />
Port Hills, Nuk<br />
Korako writes<br />
about his<br />
support for the<br />
new Redcliffs<br />
School site and<br />
encourages<br />
people to make their<br />
views known through the<br />
submission process<br />
Redcliffs residents have until<br />
<strong>June</strong> 26 to submit on the city<br />
council’s proposal for a land<br />
swap between Redcliffs Park and<br />
the Redcliffs School Main Rd<br />
site.<br />
This is the next step in the<br />
proposal to bring Redcliffs<br />
School back to Redcliffs.<br />
The proposal is that the city<br />
council will sell Redcliffs Park to<br />
the Ministry of Education, while<br />
the Crown will continue to own<br />
the Redcliffs School site, and that<br />
site will be managed as a reserve.<br />
I understand the concerns of<br />
some residents who live close to<br />
the park who feel this proposal<br />
will negatively affect them. I do<br />
hope those who have concerns<br />
have been able to attend the city<br />
council’s drop-in sessions and<br />
have access to full and accurate<br />
information to assist them with<br />
their submissions.<br />
Personally, I am wholeheartedly<br />
in support of this proposal.<br />
My position has always been that<br />
I want to see Redcliffs School<br />
stay in the community, but I<br />
have not been convinced that the<br />
current Main Rd site is a good<br />
place for the school to return to.<br />
I see Redcliffs Park as the best<br />
option to keep the school in<br />
the community, and I believe it<br />
is in the interests of the whole<br />
community to have the school<br />
return. But I will not be the one<br />
making this decision.<br />

of city councillors Sarah<br />
Templeton, Andrew Turner and<br />

NEW:<br />
Redcliffs<br />
Park is the<br />

will hear the submissions<br />
on this issue, and make their<br />

The city council will make the<br />
final decision on the land swap,<br />
and the community consultation<br />
will be a very important part of<br />
that decision making process.<br />
Whatever your view, it is<br />
important that you make your<br />
voice heard through the submission<br />
process. This decision<br />
affects members of the Redcliffs<br />
community in different ways,<br />
and it is only by hearing from<br />
the community that the city<br />
council can be fully informed<br />
and make a decision with the<br />
best interests of the community<br />
at heart.<br />
We said:<br />
Governors <strong>Bay</strong> residents<br />
are fed up with cars<br />
speeding up and down their<br />
roads and want the city<br />
council to step in and make<br />
the speed limits clearer for<br />
road users<br />
You said:<br />
Nick Kensington – Not all<br />
of us that drive up there are inexperienced<br />
(and) think they know<br />
how to drive but I do understand<br />
where the residents are coming<br />
from.<br />
Wal Thomas – Unnecessarily<br />
powerful cars plaguing our<br />
roads need to attract some form<br />
of excise tax if used on our roads.<br />
Andrew Johnson – They<br />
forced them out of the CBD and<br />
now they don’t give a bugger.<br />
Jonathan Wright – Hoons<br />
have been tearing up those roads<br />
since my granddad was a boy.<br />
Dianne Charman – And<br />
unfortunately, driven by very<br />
inexperienced young people.<br />
Zane McRae Corson – Can<br />
only blame the parents there.<br />
Corie Herd – Shame. That’s<br />
what it was built for, a race track,<br />
people need to build a bridge and<br />
get over it.<br />
CONCERNED: A car nearly<br />
crashed into Terry White’s<br />
house on a straight piece<br />
of Dyers Pass Rd. PHOTO:<br />
ANDREW KING<br />
Shaun Evans – Build some<br />
speed humps along those roads.<br />
Jo Garrick – This is a huge<br />
problem everywhere.<br />
Wally Reyn – I live on Dyers<br />
Pass Rd and every Friday/Saturday<br />
and some other nights, I wait<br />
to hear the crash at the end of the<br />
speeding car noises and they are<br />
hotted up cars being driven very<br />
fast.<br />

Health Tips<br />
Protect yourself for up to 3 months from cold & flu<br />
It’s coming into the time of year to be thinking about prevention of colds & flu.<br />
Buccaline is an oral antibacterial prophylaxis for the prevention of secondary<br />
bacterial infections associated with cold and flu. Buccaline provides active<br />
immunisation against bacterial colds. Illnesses of the upper respiratory are<br />
often caused by bacterial infections. Viral and influenza-like illnesses are<br />
frequently made worse by an additional bacterial infections and take longer<br />
to recover from. Immunology investigations show that Buccaline significantly<br />
improves resistance to colds and flu. Protection becomes effective after taking<br />
the last set of tablets. To maintain effectiveness as well as taking Buccaline<br />
at the beginning of the cold season take it again in the middle of the cold<br />
season. Tablets should be swallowed whole with some liquid one-hour before<br />
breakfast or lunch.<br />
Ask your pharmacist if<br />
Buccaline is right for you.<br />
Note: Buccaline is not<br />
intended as an alternative<br />
to influenza vaccination.<br />

Rotary tradition for Lego loving family<br />
Ferrymead<br />
Rotary have<br />
hosted a Lego<br />
competition<br />
every year<br />
since 2009.<br />
Club member<br />
Barbara<br />
Crooks writes about the<br />
competition and some<br />
long-standing competitors<br />
It’s hard to imagine Ferrymead<br />
Rotary Lego without the Hayes.<br />
The club has been running the<br />
contest for primary school children<br />
since 2009 – and the Hayes<br />
family from Mt Pleasant has<br />
been at every one of them.<br />
Mother Hayley Hayes said it<br />
had become “a family tradition”.<br />
“It’s something we do every<br />
year on the first Sunday of the<br />
cold, winter school holidays.<br />
We head down the hill with our<br />
buckets, tubs and trays,” Ms<br />
Hayes said.<br />
The Hayes Lego love affair<br />
began with the then eight-yearold<br />
Spencer at the first Rotary<br />
contest in 2009.<br />
This year his 12-year-old and<br />
eight-year-old brothers will both<br />
be part of the annual event at<br />
the Heathcote Valley School on<br />
Sunday, July 9.<br />
CREATIVE: Spencer Hayes in 2012 with his Lego model of the Christ Church Cathedral<br />
pre-earthquake. Spencer has competed in the Ferrymead Rotary Lego contest several times.<br />
Spencer, now 16, will be there<br />
too. Not as a competitor, but<br />
with his special Lego interpretation<br />
based on the Beatles famous<br />
Yellow Submarine hit from the<br />
1960s. He will add it to the display<br />
but it will not be part of the<br />
competition.<br />
Back in 2012 he produced a<br />
Lego depiction of the Christ<br />
Church Cathedral in preearthquake<br />
form (ironically<br />
still highly relevant). Music and<br />
drama have become major interests<br />
for Spencer, but he enjoys<br />
producing these Lego one-offs.<br />
“Between the three of them,<br />
Dad still gets to play as well,” Ms<br />
Hayes said.<br />
The Ferrymead Rotary contest<br />
is open to children from any primary<br />
and intermediate school.<br />
Most come from schools in the<br />
<strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> area, but some have<br />
journeyed across town to enjoy<br />
the fun.<br />
The contest caters for team and<br />
individual work.<br />
Team events are run on agegroup<br />
basis – years 1 and 2; 3<br />
and 4; f5 and 6; 7 and 8. Teams<br />
make models on a given theme<br />
from Lego blocks supplied by<br />
Lego New Zealand. Teams can<br />
be organised beforehand or you<br />
can just arrive and form a team<br />
on the day.<br />
In the individual events, competitors<br />
bring models with them<br />
on the day. These can be originals<br />
or copied from a design.<br />
Many of these models have been<br />
very imaginative interpretations,<br />
and many are complex works<br />
with working parts.<br />
•The <strong>2017</strong> Rotary Lego<br />
Contest will run from<br />
9.30am to noon on July 9<br />
at Heathcote Valley School.<br />

Sumner’s winning streak not<br />
enough to make top six<br />
• By Gordon Findlater<br />
A FIFTH straight win for<br />
Sumner didn’t prove enough<br />
to sneak them into the top<br />
six of the division 1 metro<br />
competition.<br />
Celebrating club day at St<br />
Leonards Square on Saturday, a<br />
final 15-minute blast saw Sumner<br />
prevail 48-23 against Marist<br />
Albion.<br />
Unfortunately for the seasiders,<br />
their hopes of qualifying for<br />
the end of season section one top<br />
six competition wasn’t in their<br />
own hands. They also needed<br />
Belfast to defeat sixth placed<br />
Burnside. However, Burnside<br />
prevailed 34-19.<br />
Although they would have<br />
loved to be in the top six, coach<br />
Martin Dodgson says the team<br />
will now turn their attention to<br />
continuing their winning streak<br />
in section two.<br />
“The wave is on a roll,” said<br />
Dodgson. “Saturday was by far<br />
the best performance from our<br />
senior squad. Not only from our<br />
team but the division 2 team<br />
played outstanding and narrowly<br />
lost 7-10 to Christchurch<br />
who are second.”<br />
Sumner’s division 1 side were<br />
solid in the first half. Tries to<br />
No 8 Dylan Nel and lock Josh<br />
Loader gave their side a 15-11<br />
advantage at the break.<br />
FIRST FIVE: Nik Cumming scored an intercept try and slotted<br />
six goals for Sumner on Saturday. PHOTO: ROZELLE MAY<br />
Marshall Suckling crossed<br />
the line for Sumner mid-way<br />
through the second 40 but the<br />
real action was left for the final<br />
15 minutes of the game which<br />
saw Tom Crozier, Nik Cumming,<br />
Willie Sakura and Peri<br />
Marks all cross the line as Sumner<br />
ran away with the result.<br />
First-five Cumming made five<br />
conversions and a penalty kick<br />
on his way to a man of the match<br />
performance, which included<br />
some well-angled kicking into<br />
touch and an intercept try.<br />
Sumner also had a special<br />
recruit for their club day with<br />
former Australian international<br />
and current Crusaders winger<br />
Digby Ioane running out for the<br />
first half against Marist Albion<br />
as he continues his recovery<br />
from injury.<br />
“We might have been guilty of<br />
sitting back and thinking, come<br />
on Digby do something, but he<br />
played well and got involved. We<br />
had a few people getting him to<br />
sign things after the game,” said<br />
Dodgson.<br />
Sumner begin their section<br />
two campaign on Saturday and<br />
will be targeting a top two finish<br />
which would see them play-off<br />
for silverware against the bottom<br />
two teams from section one.<br />
SPORTS<br />

Sumner surfers show their<br />
SUMNER surfers<br />
held their own<br />
against a top<br />
rated field from<br />
throughout the<br />
country at the<br />
annual Kaikoura<br />
Cold Water Surf<br />
Classic.<br />
Harrison Whiteside continued<br />
his recent run of form by winning<br />
the junior event.<br />
The Kaikoura contest held over<br />
Queens Birthday weekend was<br />
the final of the South Island surfing<br />
circuit for the season.<br />
The series runs over four<br />
events around the South Island.<br />
Whiteside’s performance in Kaikoura<br />
saw him comfortably win<br />
both the open men and junior<br />
circuits.<br />
Sumner were also well represented<br />
in the junior women’s<br />
event in Kaikoura with Estella<br />
Hungerford finishing second<br />
and Ava Henderson third.<br />
Fellow local Rodney<br />
Somegyvari put in a strong<br />
performance in the open men’s<br />
section to place second with<br />
15.53 points behind event winner<br />
Levi O’Connor, of Kaikoura,<br />
who posted a near perfect score<br />
of 19.5 points. Somegyvari was<br />
also second in the seniors, with<br />
Luca Brunotti third and Ben<br />
Aaron's surf report<br />
Rees fourth.<br />
William Wallace was a close<br />
second in the longboard final,<br />
while Alan Temoananui was<br />
third in the masters.<br />
The event attracted record<br />
numbers. With more than 130<br />
entries, it was great to see so<br />
many people making the effort<br />
to support Kaikoura.<br />
One of the up sides from the<br />
earthquake is that the event was<br />
able to run all through the high<br />
tide at Meatworks even with<br />
a small swell. In the past, the<br />
waves would stop breaking at<br />
high tide so in this case the uplift<br />
has been a bonus.<br />
In the final South Island circuit<br />
standings, Wallace finished<br />
second in the longboard. In the<br />
women’s longboard. Sumner<br />
took out the top three with Lucy<br />
Johnson, Brittany Andrews and<br />
Nina Young making up the top<br />
three. In the grand masters, Neill<br />
Robb was second.<br />

Pirate’s Corner<br />
Wastewater held up<br />
Boaties get trained up<br />
• By Gary Manch, navigational<br />
safety officer, Lyttleton<br />
IN MY previous article I<br />
mentioned that attending a<br />
boating safety course would be<br />
a great idea to up-skill yourself<br />
if you have not attended one<br />
already.<br />
I received a little bit of feedback<br />
in relation to this and one<br />
comment was about the cost of<br />
completing these courses, either<br />
by attending the two-day course,<br />
day skipper course or completing<br />
it online.<br />
I appreciate the fact that some<br />
may find the cost of doing these<br />
courses a bit of a strain, but when<br />
you think about the considerable<br />
investment you have in your<br />
boat, be it a kayak, paddleboard,<br />
jet ski or power boat, the $157<br />
is a relatively small amount to<br />
pay when the knowledge gained<br />
may save you from getting into<br />
difficulty.<br />
If my maths is correct, it’s one<br />
coffee per week over 30 weeks to<br />
save the money.<br />
The other issue that was<br />
brought up was that the courses<br />
are not available in all centres.<br />
And the answer to this is<br />
simple: There is the ability to do<br />
an online module and then have<br />

Knowledge is power.<br />
The analogy I use is that you do<br />
not drive a car without learning<br />
the rules, so why would you take<br />
a boat out?<br />
Being on the water can be as<br />
dangerous as driving on the road<br />
if you do not have the skills or<br />
knowledge to safely get to and<br />
from wherever you are going.<br />
On that note, be safe out there.<br />
If you have any queries about<br />
recreational boating or the rules,<br />
I am always happy to help – just<br />

A DATA error has held up<br />
upgrading Akaroa’s wastewater<br />
system.<br />
The city council now needs<br />
more time to consider the options<br />
for the upgrades for the<br />
ageing wastewater system after<br />
a technical error was found in<br />
some of the data, which was<br />
used to assess different upgrade<br />
options.<br />
The community was recently<br />
consulted on five options to<br />
upgrade the system and the<br />
preferred option was to reuse<br />
the town’s treated wastewater<br />
via a non-potable “purple pipe’’<br />
network.<br />
The water could be used for<br />
things such as watering gardens<br />
or washing cars.<br />
But as the design team carried<br />
out further assessments on<br />
the viability of the purple pipe<br />
option, a discrepancy in flow<br />
readings was noticed. Further<br />
investigation revealed a flow<br />
meter was not working properly<br />
and was giving inaccurate readings.<br />
These readings were used by<br />
consultants to estimate the land<br />
area needed for the options that<br />
involved reusing the wastewater<br />
to irrigate pasture and trees,<br />
and to estimate the costs of each<br />
of the five options.<br />
Council Head of Three<br />
Waters and Waste John Mackie<br />
said the readings underestimated<br />
the flow of wastewater,<br />
especially at times of low flow.<br />
As a result, two new flow meters<br />
will be installed to record new<br />
data.<br />
“These flow meters will be<br />
calibrated to ensure accurate<br />
and validated data is recorded,”<br />
Mr Mackie said.<br />
Mr Mackie said the new data<br />
should be available to the design<br />
team next week.<br />
The design team will then<br />
analyse the data and assess any<br />
impact on the five options that<br />
were consulted on.<br />
“It is possible that when the<br />
new data is applied, it may show<br />
that design estimates relating to<br />
land area and costs have been<br />
underestimated,” Mr Mackie<br />
said. This problem means the<br />
project team will not be able to<br />
report to the Hearings Panel as<br />
planned this month.<br />

4K technology for St George’s Hospital<br />
FROM HOLLYWOOD to the<br />
operating theatre – technology<br />
used in blockbuster movies<br />
is now being used to help<br />
Christchurch surgeons during<br />
operations.<br />
The 4k imaging technology<br />
has been incorporated in the five<br />
new operating theatres built as<br />
part of the redevelopment at St<br />
George’s Hospital.<br />
The technology has been<br />
used to film big screen movies,<br />
including the Hunger Games and<br />
Spectre.<br />
It produces a resolution four<br />
times higher than the traditional<br />
Full HD, making it possible to<br />
zoom in on the smallest details<br />
and magnify them.<br />
That will allow surgeons to<br />
watch what they are doing live<br />
on a screen during keyhole<br />
surgery, and zoom in as<br />
they work to see right to the<br />
individual blood vessels.<br />
Hospital chief executive<br />
Greg Brooks said the technology<br />
would directly benefit<br />
patients.<br />
“The redevelopment has<br />
provided us with a key<br />
opportunity to invest in worldleading<br />
innovation to provide<br />
our patients with superior care,”<br />
he said.<br />
ADVANCED: One of the new operating theatres at St George’s, where the new 4k technology will make it easier for surgeons to<br />
do keyhole surgery. The technology now in use has been used in big screen movies, including the Hunger Games.<br />

Travel<br />
Sample the shops and cuisine of Seoul<br />
• By Mike Yardley<br />
WHEN I mentioned to<br />
my Korean hairdresser in<br />
Christchurch that I was heading<br />
to Seoul, his response was hardly<br />
reaffirming. “Why would you<br />
want to go there?”<br />
Sure, Seoul doesn’t enjoy the<br />
reputational hype of Tokyo,<br />
Shanghai or Bangkok, but as a<br />
quick stopover or side-trip, the<br />
city struck me as immensely<br />
engaging.<br />
Arriving into Seoul by fast train<br />
from Incheon Airport, one of<br />
the first imposing landmarks to<br />
stop me in my tracks was Namdaemun,<br />
the city’s South Gate,<br />
resplendently restored after being<br />
bombed during the Korean War.<br />
The gate forms part of Seoul’s<br />
old city walls, of which 70 per<br />
cent are remarkably intact. Over<br />
600 years old, the 18km circuit<br />
wraps around the city core and<br />
threads together the four guardian<br />
mountains that keep watch<br />
over Seoul. The city continues rebuilding<br />
the missing chunks but<br />
if you’re up for a power-walk, in<br />
every sense, head to the Bukaksan<br />
section.<br />
The highest of the four peaks at<br />
342m, it stands guard over Korea’s<br />
seat of power and the summit<br />
viewpoint overlooks the Blue<br />
CEREMONY: A highly theatrical changing of the guard is performed daily at the entrance gate of Gwanghwamun. Right – The city’s<br />
South Gate, restored after it was damaged during the Korean War.<br />
House, Korea’s splendid presidential<br />
palace.<br />
There’s a variety of royal palaces<br />
clustered around the central city<br />
including Gyeongbokgung,<br />
Seoul’s premier palace which<br />
has performed a Phoenix-like<br />
resurrection, from the cinders<br />
of destruction. It was from here<br />
that the Joseon Dynasty ruled<br />
the roost for 600 years, before the<br />
Japanese muscled in.<br />
A highly theatrical changing<br />
of the guard is performed daily,<br />
purely as a patriotic fist-pump,<br />
around the entrance gate of<br />
Gwanghwamun. The blaze of<br />
colourfully-costumed regalia is<br />
loved by the locals as much as<br />
the selfie-stick toting tourists.<br />
Gyeongbokgung translates as the<br />
Palace of Shining Happiness, a<br />
colossal compound of astounding<br />
architecture, ornamental gardens<br />
and vivid history.<br />
It previously contained 800<br />
buildings and 200 gates. The Joseon<br />
kings had several thousand<br />
servants at their disposal within<br />
the royal household, including<br />
500 ladies-in-waiting and 400<br />
eunuchs.<br />
Trying to get your head around<br />
the sheer extravagance of this imperial<br />
relic is best decoded with a<br />
good guide.<br />
I explored the palace as part of<br />
a city tour with VIP Travel, who<br />
run a great-value and illuminating<br />
guided sightseeing service.<br />
www.vviptravel.com<br />
Perfectly perched in the heart<br />
of Seoul’s cultural district, Courtyard<br />
by Marriott Seoul Namdaemun<br />
delivers a distinct experience,<br />
with the carnival colour of<br />
Namdaemun Market, right across<br />
the road.<br />
Just one year old, this engaging<br />
property still has new-hotelsmell,<br />
and elegantly furnished<br />
with all the creature comforts<br />
you’d expect from an ultra-contemporary<br />
hotel. Wi-fi is free and<br />
lightning-fast, guestrooms are<br />
spacious and the city views are<br />
electrifying.<br />
You’ll enjoy 24-hour access to<br />
the generously equipped fitness<br />
centre, outstanding concierge services,<br />
impeccable hospitality and<br />
all-day dining at Momo Café.<br />

Asian culinary delights. courtyard.marriott.com<br />
The streets of Seoul are packed<br />
with culinary delights and a onestop-shop<br />
for bargain buys and<br />
great bites is the Namdaemun<br />
Market, a frenetic night-and-day<br />
emporium that sprawls for blocks<br />
and is Korea’s biggest market.<br />
Whether its clothing, accessories<br />
or handicrafts, each section<br />
comprises hundreds of stalls,<br />
spilling across pedestrianised<br />
streets.<br />
The sensory overload is most<br />
graphically illustrated by the profusion<br />
of food stalls, sizzling with<br />
binge-worthy things on sticks and<br />
in bowls, which will soon challenge<br />
your stomach space.<br />
Best bites include odeng, fishcake<br />
skewers seasoned in springonion<br />
soup; tteokbokki, spicy rice<br />
cakes that are revved up with redpepper<br />
paste; and dakkochi, the<br />
ubiquitous barbequed chicken on<br />
skewers in a sticky, tangy sauce.<br />
They are nearly as pervasive<br />
as kimchi, Korea’s great staple of<br />

FAST FACTS<br />
•I booked my side-trip<br />
to Seoul from Japan<br />
through the leading<br />
global airfare comparison<br />
platform, Cheapflights.<br />
Apparently, the popularity<br />
of Cheapflights has now<br />
reached the level where its<br />
website and app booking<br />
traffic fills a 747 every five<br />
minutes! It’s brilliantly simple<br />
to use, highly intuitive and<br />
super smart, loading up<br />
all available flights and<br />
fares, for your preferred<br />
time, date and destination.<br />
Save yourself the hassle<br />
of searching multiple sites<br />
to hunt down the best<br />
available flights and fares.<br />

legwork for you – in a flash.<br />

seeds, peanuts, red beans and<br />
honey. Namdaemun Market is<br />
centrally located in Myeongdong,<br />
which is Seoul’s shopaholic<br />
mecca. All of the global fashion<br />
heavyweights are here, alongside<br />
chic Asian faves and the templelike<br />
department stores.<br />
Pop into Mitsukoshi, the Harrods<br />
of Seoul, and the city’s oldest<br />
department store with an opulent<br />
food hall in the basement. My<br />
local guide told me that 20 pr<br />
cent of Seoul’s women have facial<br />
surgery. They binge on cosmetic<br />
perfectionism and you’ll see a<br />
surfeit of specimens in Mitsukoshi.<br />

Dragon Teeth<br />
by Michael Crichton<br />
Not since Jurassic Park has digging up the past been<br />
so dangerous. Michael Crichton, the #1 New York Times<br />
bestselling author, returns to the world of paleontology in this<br />
recently discovered novel - a thrilling adventure set in the Wild<br />
West during the golden age of fossil hunting. Ancient discoveries. An<br />
epic rivalry. An adventure that made history. The year is 1876. Warring<br />
Indian tribes still populate America’s western territories even as lawless gold-rush towns<br />
begin to mark the landscape. In much of the country it is still illegal to espouse evolution.<br />
Against this backdrop two monomaniacal paleontologists pillage the Wild West, hunting<br />
for dinosaur fossils, while surveilling, deceiving and sabotaging each other in a rivalry that<br />
will come to be known as the Bone Wars. Into this treacherous territory plunges the arrogant<br />
and entitled William Johnson, a Yale student with more privilege than sense. Determined<br />
to survive a summer in the west to win a bet against his arch-rival, William has joined<br />
world-renowned paleontologist Othniel Charles Marsh on his latest expedition. But when the<br />
paranoid and secretive Marsh becomes convinced that William is spying for his nemesis,<br />
Edwin Drinker Cope, he abandons him in Cheyenne, Wyoming, a locus of crime and vice.<br />
William is forced to join forces with Cope and soon stumbles upon a discovery of historic<br />
proportions. With this extraordinary treasure, however, comes exceptional danger, and<br />
William’s newfound resilience will be tested in his struggle to protect his cache, which pits<br />
him against some of the West’s most notorious characters.<br />
Robert Ludlum’s The Bourne Initiative<br />
Eric Van Lustbader<br />
General Boris Karpov, head of the feared Russian FSB, is dead but the cyber attack he<br />
launched at the heart of the US’s nuclear defence network lives on. Who has taken over the<br />
operation? Karpov trusted only one man: Jason Bourne. But can Bourne be working against<br />
his own country? The sequel to The Bourne Enigma.<br />
Jason Bourne is on the run. His old friend, General Boris Karpov, is dead. But Karpov, once<br />
head of the feared FSB, lives on in the cyber weapon he devised before his death, capable<br />
of penetrating the heart of America’s final defense: nuclear launch codes. Both the NSA and<br />
Meme LLC, a black off-site cyber opertion, believe Bourne has taken over the enterprise,<br />
and a kill team is sent to terminate him for committing treason against the US. Flushed from<br />
cover, hunted by assassins, wounded and nearly killed, Bourne is forced to join forces with<br />
his bitterest enemy, a Somali magus named Keyre, whose terrorist organization Bourne<br />
once decimated. Now Keyre is more powerful than ever and he might help Bourne, but<br />
to what end? From the Greek island of Skyros to Somalia and the underbelly of Moscow,<br />
Bourne must unravel the mystery of Boris Karpov’s last legacy, a weaponized code that may<br />
very well bring about the unthinkable: a violent end to America.<br />

Introducing<br />
Sukin’s Ultra<br />
Hydrating<br />
Body Oil<br />
Soft, supple, incredibly hydrated skin – in winter?<br />
It’s totally achievable with our gorgeous Sukin<br />
Ultra Hydrating Body Oil.<br />
Lotions just don’t measure up in the<br />
chillier weather if skin is overly dry and<br />
needing some extra TLC. Delivering<br />
intensive daily hydration, our luxurious<br />
Ultra Hydrating Body Oil contains<br />
Sunflower, Jojoba, Rosehip, Marula Seed,<br />
Avocado and Soybean Oils. It glides on<br />
easily, is quickly absorbed and doesn’t<br />
leave an oily residue. This natural oil<br />
blend promotes a radiant appearance<br />
and can improve the texture of the skin.<br />
Added Calendula Flower Extract assists<br />
to soothe and revitalise dehydrated skin.<br />
This multi-use body oil, formerly<br />
called Wellbeing Body Oil, is ideal for<br />
those who prefer oils to creams or who<br />
need extra hydration and softens skin<br />
from top to toe. It’s great for massage or<br />
as a bath oil, post-shaving or waxing and<br />
as a hand or foot treatment to soothe the<br />
skin. It can be added into your favourite<br />
Body Lotion or Cream for an extra<br />
hydrating boost, but we love adding a<br />
few drops to the bath, perfect for some<br />
winter pampering.<br />
Like all Sukin products, the<br />
range is free of sulphates, animal<br />
derivatives, parabens, propylene<br />
glycol, harsh detergents, mineral oils,<br />
triethanolamine, synthetic fragrances<br />
and parabens.<br />
Be warm in<br />
