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 />

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 />

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 />

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 />

on this issue, and make their<br />

recommendations in a report to<br />

the city council.<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 />

The Ferrymead <strong>Bay</strong>s 10th grade Torpedoes celebrated a<br />

6-2 win over Cashmere Technical Blue at the weekend.<br />

International Cup to be played at the Christchurch<br />

Football Centre next month. The cup, now its second<br />

year, will host around 80 teams from around the Asia-<br />

Pacific region. The Torpedoes are currently competing in<br />

the top 10th grade Mainland Football competition. So far<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 />

your work assessed.<br />

So sorry, no excuses really are<br />

there?<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 />

email me at gary.manch@ecan.<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 />

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 />

Let Cheapflights do the<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 />

HEALTH & BEAUTY<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 />
