Snapshot of poet’s life on film 

• By Sarla Donovan 

A documentary film about 

Lyttelton writer Ben Brown 

(above) has won an international 

award in Berlin. 

Félix Vaunois’ film Moko: A 

Film about a Maori Poet was last 

week selected as the winner of 

the Berlin Student Film Festival 

Documentary Award. 

Described as the intimate 

story of a modern-day Maori 

poet, the seven minute film is 

a snapshot of Mr Brown’s life, 

exploring how the man and the 

poet intersect. 

He was “very impressed” with 

what Mr Vaunois had made. 

Seeing yourself on screen was 

an unusual experience, he said, 

given the personal nature of the 

film. “Odd, but not unpleasant.” 

The award winning children’s 

author and poet has lived in 

Lyttelton for the past 17 years. 

Mr Vaunois said the award 

was unexpected and “very 

exciting.” 

“I’m very proud, but at the 

end of the day, I got such a thrill 

working with Ben. He’s one of 

the most amazing characters I’ve 

ever met.”

POLICE HAVE used social 

media to quash rumours a 

serious crash between Barrys 

Bay and the Hilltop Tavern on 

Sunday was caused by a foreign 

driver. 

Senior Constable Anita 

Osborne posted on the Akaroa 

Buy Sell and Exchange and 

Community Notice Board 

Facebook page: “Before there is 

any speculation about tourist 

drivers and bad motorbikes, not 

that I expect anyone would jump 

to conclusions would they, the 

driver of the car admits driver 

error and was very co-operative – 

and he lives in Canterbury.” 

A 31-year-old motor-cyclist 

suffered life-threatening injuries 

when he collided with a car on 

the Christchurch Akaroa Rd at 

about 4pm. 

He suffered an “open book 

pelvis fracture” intensive care

THE 

EDITOR’S 

DESK News..................................... 3-11 

BAY HARBOUR News has a new 

reporter – Sarla Donovan. 

Sarla has a teaching 

background, though she did train 

as a journalist before opting to go 

into an education career. 

However, several months ago 

she decided to make a break 

from the classroom and landed a 

reporter’s job at Star Media which 

publishes Bay Harbour News and 

several other community newspapers, 

and The Star. 

She has been filing articles for 

our other papers but this week 

she moves onto Bay Harbour – a 

logical step because she lives in 

the area. 

Sarla’s contact details are below 

on page 2 so feel free to call or 

email her with great local stories 

and ideas. 

And if you’re wondering what’s 

happened to reporter Caitlin 

Miles, she’s going to do a Sarla – 

train to be a teacher.

No skate ramp during holidays 

Fashion 

 


SUMNER KIDS won’t have a 

skate ramp for the July school 

holidays. 

Sumner Green and Skate 

Group was hoping to reopen 

the temporary skate ramp 

last week, but the process of 

working through noise, legal 

and consultation issues has been 

slower than anticipated. 

Skate group member 

Gardening 

Kimberley 

Mossman (right) 

was disappointed. 

“It is frustrating 

as we were 

working towards 

July 1,” she said. 

However, it was 

important they followed correct 

Motoring 

procedures, make sure all 

the boxes had been ticked, she 

said. 

“Although it is temporary, it 

has got to work for everybody. 

We don’t want to annoy 

anyone.” 

The temporary skate ramp at 

36 Wakefield Ave was shut down 

on February 10 when it failed to 

Tasty Bites 

comply with the city plan’s noise 

standards. 

Since then, the group has 

been working with the city 

council to find a place to put 

CLOSED: The Sumner skate ramp on Wakefield Ave was closed earlier this year when city 

council ran noise tests and found it did not comply with noise standards. 

the ramp while plans for a more 

permanent structure are put 

together. 

City council head of parks and 

recreation, Andrew Rutledge, 

said the ramp is proposed to 

go on public land and cannot 

open until a resource consent 

is obtained due to noise 

requirements of the district plan. 

He said the city council would 

be talking to neighbours closest 

to the proposed site “within the 

next fortnight.” 

There were no residential 

neighbours within 30m of the 

site that he was aware of. 

Meanwhile, a community 

workshop will be held on July 

24 at 6pm at the Redcliffs 

Mt Pleasant Bowling Club to 

allow the community to have 

their say on what they believe 

is important in a permanent 

skate park site, to be located 

somewhere between Ferrymead 

and Sumner. 

In Brief 

NEW OWNER FOR BISTRO 

The Cornershop Bistro in Sumner 

has a new owner. Auckland chef 

Jugraj Singh bought the business 

in early June and will operate it 

with the help of his sister. The 

restaurant closed for a three week 

renovation on June 14. However, 

problems with the floor mean it 

will be closed for an extra two 

weeks. The new owners plan to 

keep many of the same dishes 

and will retain the name. They 

hope to reopen by the end of this 

month. 

QUAY CLOSURE 

Cyrus Williams Quay was closed 

on Monday as construction 

begins on the new, fully serviced 

walk-on marina. Public access to 

surrounding sites at Naval Point, 

including the public slip on Cyrus 

Williams Quay, will remain open. 

The affected section of Cyrus 

Williams Quay will be closed 

until April 2018. 

$5k for youth trust 

Shoreline Youth Trust has 

received a $5000 grant to go 

towards a leadership development 

programme. The Linwood- 

Central-Heathcote Community 

Board approved the grant to go 

towards the Sumner-based trust. 

The programme aims to develop 

leadership skills in young people 

in the Sumner and Redcliffs area.

Exhibition celebrating women’s art 

A PORT Levy artist is behind 

an exhibition featuring 10 

Canterbury female artists 

which opens on Monday. 

Maria Lee organised 

W*A*S*H, which stands for 

Women’s Art Shown Here, an 

all-women art show with 10 

per cent of sales donated to the 

Women’s Centre on Ferry Rd. 

Ms Lee said although each 

artist had her own style, “as 

women, we feel a natural 

inclination to draw together, 

to gather, support and encourage. 

The reason may be as 

simple as companionship 

or inclusion but mostly it’s 

because we love art.”

exhibition. 

museums were more likely to 

feature work by men rather 

than women, Ms Lee said. 

“Over the last few years, galleries 

have begun to acknowledge 

and redress the gender 

balance with both the Tate 

Modern and Saatchi Gallery 

(in London) holding women’s 

art exhibitions. But women are 

still sadly underrepresented.”

poet’s life

• From page 1 

As a young 

filmmaker, such 

accolades were 

important to building 

a portfolio and 

helping get more 

work, he said. 

He made the 

documentary while 

still a student at the 

Felix 

Vaunois 

New Zealand Broadcasting School 

last year. 

Originally from Auckland, Mr 

Vaunois fell in love with the port 

town while living in Christchurch. 

“It’s such a beautiful mix of 

industry and art. It seems an ancient 

idea to be a poet in today’s society 

but communities like Lyttelton 

enable this to happen.” 

The documentary was also entered 

in the Sundance Ignite Challenge in 

Utah, a competition for filmmakers 

between 18 and 24, where it was 

named in the top 25 out of 400 

entries. 

Mr Vaunois said he hoped to show 

the film in Lyttelton as a final release 

sometime this year.

Our People 

Richard Jolly 

Former oil trader finds reward 

Your Local Views 

Teacher Richard Jolly is 

head of social science at 

Linwood College but in 

his former life, he was a 

London-based oil trader 

who travelled the world. 

Sarla Donovan talks to 

him about what a trader 

does and why he moved 

ews 

to Christchurch 

Oil trader to social studies 

teacher – why the change? 

To do something worthwhile 

and bring up a family in 

Christchurch. I taught in Camp 

America for a year before oil 

ashion 

trading and loved it. I wanted to 

go back to it; teaching students is 

very rewarding – and there’s not 

many oil trading jobs here. 

It sounds exotic. 

It is exotic. I travelled to many 

countries – the United States 

lots of times, Egypt and Russia 

and the Baltic States. I was 

based in London, but did a lot 

Gardening 

of work Hamburg and Zug 

in Switzerland. It’s a great life, 

but if you have small children 

you never see them. I spent 

hours and hours oil trading 

and realised one day, sitting 

at my desk that I was paying a 

nanny to take my daughter to 

the beach. That’s really when 

I decided to make the change. 

That was 14 years ago. We 

moved from Switzerland to New 

Zealand and I trained at the 

New Zealand Graduate School 

of Education. My wife Beth is 

from Methven but it wasn’t all 

her choice, she certainly wasn’t 

putting the pressure on to come 

back. 

What do oil traders need to 

be good at, what’s involved? 

You need to be good with 

people, good with numbers 

and good at making decisions. 

I’d make contacts in different 

countries, buy large quantities 

of oil, organise shipping, ship 

it halfway across the world, 

hedge the price using the futures 

market, talk to refineries to 

process it. So, you have to work 

with a lot of different people. 

Are there any similarities 

between the two jobs? 

Not a lot – the lunches are 

quite different! You’re still 

working with people 

though, that’s the same. 

So were you 

here during the 

earthquakes? 

Yes . . . but I wish I wasn’t. 

How did they affect 

you? 

Not good. 

We lost our 

house in the 

February 2011 

earthquake 

and like many, 

it took six years 

to get it replaced. 

Meanwhile, we 

moved 13 times, 

including one 

year back in 

the UK. 

I was offered a job back in oil 

trading when we went back but 

chose to stay in teaching and 

worked in a very posh English 

public school, Dauntsey’s. 

So Linwood’s not the only 

school you’ve taught at? 

No, prior to the earthquake 

I worked at Catholic 

Cathedral College, which I 

very much enjoyed, and 

only left because my 

house was destroyed. 

I commuted in 

from Methven 

for a few 

months but 

then got 

a job at 

Mt Hutt 

College followed by a spell back 

at Dauntsey’s. 

Did you grow up in the 

countryside back in the UK? 

I grew up in a town called 

Beaconsfield, just outside of 

London, and it was great but the 

town has now been swallowed 

by London commuters and is 

not really very nice now. 

Are your family still back in 

the UK? 

Yes, people are still around. 

My parents have lived in the 

same place for 52 years and I 

try to get back every year or 

18 months. I also have four 

brothers over in that part of the 

world. 

PEOPLE: Teaching and oil trading are both peoplefocused 

jobs, says Richard Jolly.

Did you attend a co-ed school like 

Linwood? 

No, I went to a boys grammar school; we 

were academics and rugby. The teachers 

wore gowns and it was very formal. The 

school was good for me, it got me into 

Cambridge University where I studied 

engineering. It was amazing – I was there 

for three years – we had our bicycles, played 

sport, rugby and hockey. And from there I 

won a scholarship to do my masters in the 

US, then became an oil trader. 

Your three kids must keep you pretty 

busy these days. Do you find time for 

sports or hobbies? 

I sometimes think I run a taxi service; 

football, ballet, gymnastics. Weekends 

involve cheering my kids on in their 

sports and trying to get out myself for a 

hit of tennis or a round of golf. I think it’s 

important that we find time to balance our 

lives, it makes you a better parent and a 

better teacher. 

Where are you off to in the school 

holidays? 

We’re heading over to Australia for 

a family holiday. Very much looking 

forward to it.

REPAIRS TO damaged pavers in Akaroa 

were not completed by the end of June as 

city council staff said they would be. 

After Sue Stewart, 67, tripped over 

cracked and uneven tiles on Beach Rd last 

month, she spray-painted them to point 

the hazards out to other people to stop 

them from having the same fate. 

City council staff said the repairs would 

be completed within the month – but as of 

June 30, they hadn’t been finished. 

Contractors had started the work, but 

the damaged areas had been blocked off 

and the broken paver removed. 

Deputy Mayor Andrew Turner said 

contractors were waiting for a series of 

“fine days” before the work could resume, 

and then it would be completed within a 

week. 

Cr Turner met with Ms Stewart two 

weeks ago to talk about the situation with 

FRUSTRATED: Sue Stewart has made

will notice the problem and not hurt 

themselves. 

PHOTOS: VICTORIA ANDREWS 

loose pavers which led to Ms Stewart’s 

accident and, while he was there, they went 

around Akaroa and looked at other issues. 

Cr Turner said Ms Stewart’s local 

knowledge was “really good to use”. 

He has taken photos of other loose 

pavers and repairs that need to be carried 

out and has sent them on to the city 

council for contractors. 

Cr Turner said it was “timely” to get the 

repairs sorted before spring and summer 

when tourist numbers start to increase 

again.

PORT 

ashion 

HILLS MP Ruth Dyson 

is “delighted” at plans to 

reprogram traffic lights 

at the St Andrews Hill 

intersection, designed 

to ease confusion for 

motorists. 

None of the three 

options presented for 

public consultation 

earlier this year were green 

lighted by the Linwood- 

Gardening 

Central-Heathcote 

Community Board. 

The most popular and 

option, favoured by 372 of 

640 respondents, needed to 

be funded through the city 

council’s Long Term 

Plan, and the board felt 

it would be better to trial 

some alternatives in the 

meantime, due to the 

high level of concern 

from residents. 

Instead, the community 

board decided 

to change the light phasing, 

which will be trialled for three 

months and install signs on 

Bridle Path Rd to slow traffic. 

The changes will mean the 


Dyson gives intersection plan the green light 

left arrow light at the Main 

Rd traffic lights will be reprogrammed 

to allow for vehicles 

wanting to turn right off St 

Andrews Hill Rd onto Bridle 

Path Rd a better chance to get 

across a lane. 

Ms Dyson applauded the 

moves as sensible. 

“They’re taking a low-cost 

and in my view, smart option. 

It may or may not work but 

it’s worth trialling. If it doesn’t 

work, then they’ll have to try 

something else. But we could 

have a win-win here.” 

In last month’s Bay Harbour 

.kiwi 

News, Ms Dyson expressed 

concern the consultation 

would amount to nothing. 

“It looks like city council 

staff are going to recommend 

the board just receives 

the information from the 

consultation process. There is 

no suggestion that anything is 

actually done as a result,” she 

wrote in a column. 

City council staff will advise 

the community board on the 

success of the trial before it 

makes a submission on the 

Long Term Plan.

Blessing heralds new era for Timeball Station

THE BEGINNING of on-site 

work at the Timeball Station 

was marked with a blessing 

ceremony attended by about 

20 guests last week. 

Work to return the timeball 

tower and timeball to the 

Lyttelton skyline will begin 

later this month after an

absence of six years. 

Heritage New Zealand’s 

Māori Heritage Council 

chairman, John Clarke, turned 

the first sod at the ceremony 

last week. 

A karakia whakanoa by 

Kerepeti Paraone from Te 

Hapū o Ngāti Wheke was 

followed by speeches from Mr 

Clarke, Deputy Mayor Andrew 

Turner and Heritage New 

Zealand Pouhere Taonga chief 

executive Andrew Coleman. 

The $3 million project is 

expected to be completed by 

the end of April next year. 

“We have been delighted 

with the positive feedback, 

particularly from the local 

community, about the project,” 

Heritage Destinations general 

manager Nick Chin said. 

“The return of the timeball 

tower and timeball, which will 

drop each day as it did from 

1876 to 2011, will fit nicely 

with the regeneration of the 

port town that is going on. 

Having a familiar sight on the 

Lyttelton skyline is important 

not only for the community, 

but (for the) country, given its 

strong maritime history.”

celebrates some of the 

good things going on in 

Lyttelton 

LOTS OF great things 

happen in Lyttelton. The 

recent Festival of Lights, an annual event, 

was one of them. So okay, it was so cold 

that your breath nearly froze on the way 

Fashion 

in and out of your lungs, but the place was 

humming and everyone had a great time. 

Well done to the Project Lyttelton team 

that made this happen again! 

A couple of other quieter but equally 

excellent things going on. 

We all know, love and miss The 

Timeball Station which has been part 

of our town from 1876 until June 2011. 

Just last week, there was a blessing and 

Gardening 

ceremonial sod-turning for the start of 

the reconstruction of the tower. This is 

such a massive and positive 

step forward. Lots of money 

has been raised to see the 

timeball and the tower back 

again – in order of 

$3 million. So much of the 

original structure has been 

carefully deconstructed, labelled and 

Motoring 

stored that it is going be “original” large part. 

And at Canterbury Museum, the 

Lyttelton Redux opened. This is an 

amazing collection of significant figures 

from Lyttelton’s past, modelled by people 

who have a connection with that person. 

A true blend of history and future! The 



Lots going on in Lyttelton 

PAST MEETS PRESENT: This portrait 

of Captain Thomas Gay, modelled 

by Tony Bond, is part of the Lyttelton

subjects range from Captain 

Thomas Gay (Tony Bond), the 

railway engineer (Will Davie) 

and New Zealand’s first woman 

Member of Parliament, Elizabeth 

McCombs, modelled by her great 

granddaughter, Carolyn McCombs. The 

opening night was really fun, with the 

models enjoying their fame and lots of 

people learning more about the history 

and the people of Lyttelton. These are 

fantastic works by Julia Holden and I 

encourage you to go and visit. It’s open 

until the end of October.

Saturday 8 – 

Saturday 22 July 2017 

We said: 

The cleanliness of the 

Lyttelton Tunnel is being 

questioned, with Lyttelton 

residents wanting more 

done to keep it clean 

You said: 

Jane McCulla – I have just 

read the article in the recent 

Bay Harbour News and I totally 

agree with Ken Maynard, the 

tunnel is a disgrace. I have used 

it regularly over the past seven 

years, and I remember it being 

much cleaner before the quakes. 

It has got really dirty and 

unkempt, I honestly think it 

needs to be cleaned more often. 

The ceiling is made of yellow 

tiles but it is just black now. 

A real shame. I say fix the 

cleaning machine or buy a new 

one. It’s not good for drivers 

going through breathing in the 

dust and grime . . . probably 

carcinogenic, never mind the 

look of it . . . not very inviting 

coming in to Lyttelton. 

Tony Carrabes – I think 

it’s the best maintained tunnel 

in the world because every 

weekday night the tunnel is 

completely closed to traffic for 

maintenance. 

Peter Thompson – Well, for 

those that don’t remember, they 

CLEAN: The walls of the Lyttelton Tunnel are cleaned every three weeks, but some Lyttelton 

residents think it needs to be done more frequently. 

PHOTO: GEOFF SLOAN 

used to have cleaning crews for 

the tunnel way back in time. I 

believe they used to have trucks 

with brushes on going through 

every few days to keep the tiles 

clean. 

Tracy Journée – I’ve lived 

in Lyttelton for 23 years. Of 

course I have noticed how dirty 

the tunnel walls have been since 

the February and June 2011 

earthquakes, who hasn’t. Clearly 

there has been a breach in the 

tunnel lining in places that has 

not been properly addressed yet, 

maybe never will be. 

Perhaps if cleaning was more 

frequent it would have a better 

chance of keeping up with the 

grime. However, if extra cleaning 

schedules went ahead at this 

point in time, this would also 

mean more tunnel delays. 

This would be just unbearable 

as we currently share the tunnel 

with so many port tankers and 

other dangerous goods vehicles 

that cannot do their original 

route around through Evans 

Pass to Sumner. The regular 

and constant delays that these 

vehicles have caused over the 

years have worn me out. Just 

recently there was a half-hour 

delay with the breakdown of a 

logging truck in the tunnel. 

I believe it has been poor form 

and poor planning from the port 

company and our city council 

to have not fast tracked this 

important alternate route out of 

Lyttelton through Evans Pass. 

So, while I couldn’t agree more 

that our once shiny and white 

Lyttelton Tunnel looks more like 

the armpit of a gorilla on steroids 

most days, I would also like to 

plead, please, no more delays in 

our tunnel until Evans Pass is 

safe for traffic again.

Health Tips 

Protect yourself for up to 3 months from cold & flu 

It’s coming into the time of year to be thinking about prevention of colds & flu. 

Buccaline is an oral antibacterial prophylaxis for the prevention of secondary 

bacterial infections associated with cold and flu. Buccaline provides active 

immunisation against bacterial colds. Illnesses of the upper respiratory are 

often caused by bacterial infections. Viral and influenza-like illnesses are 

frequently made worse by an additional bacterial infections and take longer 

to recover from. Immunology investigations show that Buccaline significantly 

improves resistance to colds and flu. Protection becomes effective after taking 

the last set of tablets. To maintain effectiveness as well as taking Buccaline 

at the beginning of the cold season take it again in the middle of the cold 

season. Tablets should be swallowed whole with some liquid one-hour before 

breakfast or lunch. 

Ask your pharmacist if 

Buccaline is right for you. 

Note: Buccaline is not 

intended as an alternative 

to influenza vaccination. 

Pharmacist-Only medicine.

David Lloyd – Yes, 

there are other more 

important issues than 

this. However, this is just 

another example of how 

city council maintenance 

levels have dropped significantly 

under this present 

administration. The city is 

a disgrace with unkempt 

parks and reserves, weeds 

choking the city – the 

whole place looks untidy. 

Regular maintenance is 

necessary to keep the city 

tidy and this is not happening. 

John Thacker – I 

drive though it on a regular 

basis. I think that the 

tunnel is kept in as good 

a state as possible. It is 

obvious the damage from 

the earthquakes and one 

can see where new seepage 

is now. Don’t think that 

it affects the usage at all. 

Maybe if the Sumner road 

was opened it might help? 

As for tourists . . . what 

tourists. It’s a busy working 

port with an enormous 

amount of heavy vehicles 

transiting it every day, 24 

hours a day 

Jillian Nuth – It used 

to be spotless. The ‘toothbrush’ 

truck was always 

around. What the heck 

happened? 

Katrina Prendergast 

– The tunnel used to be 

cleaned in the early hours 

daily – I’m talking a good 

20-30 years ago. So recently, 

a by-law was introduced 

that all vehicles had to have 

their loads covered because 

they were having to clean 

‘x’ amount of tonnes every 

couple of days or so. Did 

this achieve anything? No. 

How about just get back to 

cleaning daily. 

We said: 

Traffic lights at 

the St Andrews Hill 

intersection will be 

reprogrammed to try 

and ease confusion for 

motorists 

You said: 

Graeme Nottage – I 

attended the community 

board meeting at which 

this was discussed. While 

Caitlin Miles’ report is 

accurate in that none of 

the three options was given 

the green light, it does not 

truly reflect the tenor of the 

discussion. 

Based on the discussion 

between board members, 

it would be fair to say that 

the board favoured option 

2 (additional lights); the 

option which received 

most support from the 

community (372 of the 640 

submissions). However, 

the board received advice 

from city council officers 

that funding for this 

option would have to be 

applied for through the 

council long term planning 

procedures; a delay which 

would not meet the level 

of concern from residents 

about the dangers of the 

intersection. 

Therefore, the board 

supported the proposal of 

Cr Templeton for a trial 

change to light phasing 

to hold traffic turning left 


PERPLEXING: 

The timing of 

traffic lights will 

be changed in 

an attempt to 

make the St 

Andrews Hill 

intersection 

less confusing.

from Sumner into Bridle 

Path Rd. Combined with 

measures to slow traffic approaching 

the intersection 

in Bridle Path Rd, the trial 

has a chance of achieving 

the goal of improved safety 

for those using the intersection. 

If the trial allays 

public concern, and doesn’t 

have other adverse effects, 

obviously it will become a 

permanent solution. However, 

if it is not successful, 

the expectation is that the 

board would apply for the 

funding for additional 

lights. 

It is ‘devoutly to be 

wished’ that the trial is successful. 

Otherwise, a solution 

to this most confusing, 

and dangerous, of intersections 

is a long way off. 

Gary Iliffe – I am a 

dad that drops off kids at 

Mt Pleasant School every 

morning and picks them 

up each day. These are two 

of the busiest times of day 

and I can promise you that 

I see no problem at all with 

the intersection. People 

need to really stop wasting 

the city council’s time and 

have a little bit of patience. 

The longest I have had to 

wait in line coming down 

the hill has been one to two 

minutes behind, at most, 

or about five cars. I think if 

you did a study of it, even a 

one-eyed Cantabrian could 

use that intersection with 

ease. Well done to the city 

council and those at traffic 

control, as it’s better than 

it ever was. Perhaps a wee 

adjustment of the left arrow 

off Bridle Path Rd to go for 

a few seconds longer?

Now is the time to 

check boat safety 

News 

Lyttelton based navigational 

safety officer Gary Manch 

writes about using the 

winter months to ensure 

boats comply with new 

safety bylaws. 

Fashion 

WITH WINTER upon us with 

all its vengeance, it might be a 

good time for those of you who 

have your boats at home to get 

them ready for the summer and 

ensure you comply with the new 

rules in the Navigation Safety 

Bylaw 2016. 

On October 10, 2016, the new 

bylaw came into force, bringing 

with it a number of changes that 

Gardening 

impact on you as boaties. 

The first change, under part 

five, relates to the wearing of 

life jackets. This is a big one 

for personal safety. Prior to the 

change, some of you in your 

dinghies, kayaks, canoes and 

paddle boards were allowed to 

carry a life jacket if you were 

Motoring 

under way and had made a 

conscious decision that it was 

safe to do so. 

Our new bylaw has taken that 

decision out of your hands and 

Pirate’s Corner 

you are now required to wear 

a life jacket at all times when 

under way on a vessel 6m long 

or less. This includes paddle 

boarders except when physically 

involved in riding breaking 

waves – note a leg strap must be 

attached. 

The second change you might 

like to get on to over the winter, 

if you haven’t already, is that 

your vessel needs to be identified. 

Part 20 of the Navigation 

Safety Bylaw 2016 applies here. 

If you have a vessel of any type 

that goes on the water, you need 

to read and comply with this 

part of the bylaw. 

Visit https://www.ecan.govt. 

nz/do-it-online/harbourmastersoffice/recreational-boating/ 

and 

check out part 20 to find out how 

this affects you, or alternatively 

give me a call through our 

customer services line 0800 324 

636. 

It is incumbent on you as a 

boat owner/skipper to ensure 

you are aware of the relevant 

bylaws and maritime rules. They 

are all available online. Captain 

Google is a great place to start to 

find this information. 

When you have a quiet 

moment on a cold winter night, 

checkout Maritime Rule 91 and 

22 as well. Knowledge is power. 

That’s it from me, stay warm. 

Lyttelton Arts Factory celebrated its first birthday on 

Saturday night with a cabaret show featuring a line-up of 

world-renowned New Zealand performers. Contortionist 

Skye Broberg, entertainer Lizzie Tollemache (above), 

comedy star Shay Horay and international performer 

MulletMan put on a spectacular show to an appreciative 

crowd on Saturday night. The birthday cabaret marked one 

year since the Lyttelton Arts Factory (formerly The Loons

Win puts Bays another 

goal closer to MPL title 

• By Gordon Findlater 

FERRYMEAD BAYS have the 

Mainland Premier League title 

within their grasp after a dramatic 

3-2 win over Coastal Spirit at the 

weekend. 

Bays trailed 1-2 with five minutes 

remaining, scoring two late goals in a 

remarkable comeback. 

Coastal took the lead when Guillermo 

Schuhmacher scored two goals 

in the first half. His second six minutes 

before the break was a contender 

for goal of the season. 

Trailing 0-2 at half-time, Bays 

made two changes and pulled a 

goal back on the hour when Coastal 

scored an own goal. 

Bays dominated the final period. 

Jacob Allen chipped coastal keeper 

Eddie Ashton to level the score with 

five to play. Ashton then brought 

down Mark Peers in the area, which 

earned him a second yellow card. 

Coastal striker Jordan Ball took 

over the gloves but could not prevent 

Andreas Wilson scoring from the 

resulting penalty, which sealed the 

win for Bays. 

The win means that Bays are two 

points behind Cashmere Technical 

with a game in hand. The two teams 

meet in the next round of the MPL 

on July 22. 

Both Cashmere and Bays have won 

four MPL titles and are looking to 

become the first club to claim five.

SUMNER extended their lead 

at the top of the section two 

metro rugby competition, in 

what coach Martin Dodgson 

described as an “un-Sumner 

like” performance against 

Belfast. 

The 24-5 score line would 

indicate Sumner were never 

challenged at Sheldon Park on 

Saturday. However, Dodgson 

believes the team has much 

to work on going into their 

final round-robin game of the 

season. 

“We didn’t compete and I 

was very concerned to see our 

scrum going backwards. We 

were off about five per cent”

Funny Kid for President 

by Matt Stanton 

Meet the funny kid! Because every kid loves to 

laugh. 

Every kid wants to laugh, but Max is the boy who 

can make it happen. 

He’s the class clown, the punch line and he’s even 

volunteered his bottom to be the butt of the joke. Max is the 

funny kid ... and he’s running for class president. 

Poop scandals, stalker ducks, surprise debates, psycho sports teachers, tell-all 

interviews and the great library vomit-a-geddon are just some of the things in 

store for Max and his friends at Redhill Middle School this election season. 

For fans of Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Tom Gates and Big Nate, FUNNY KID is the 

hilarious new series from bestselling children’s author Matt Stanton. 

Ages 8-12 Praise for FUNNY KID: ‘Funny Kid for President is a fast-paced read 

with an engaging protagonist. From page one, we are immediately thrown 

into Max Walburt’s world … Humour is injected into every page, making the 

story a great magnet for younger readers, including those who struggle to read 

independently.’ - CBCA Reading Time 

Jarulan by the River 

by Lily Woodhouse 

‘A sprawling and surprising story of love, grief, loss and change that crosses 

generations and continents’ Kate Forsyth. 

Matthew Fenchurch, patriarch and landowner of the northern NSW property 

Jarulan, lives in a grand decaying folly, invaded by ghosts and the local fauna. 

His wife is dead, one son has fallen on a battlefield in France, and another 

lives in exile as a remittance man on a marae in New Zealand. His only 

company are the farmhands, an old family servant and a part-time laundry 

maid with dreams above her station. 

When Matthew builds a memorial above the river for his brave lost son – and 

all the boys of the district who have died fighting for King and Country – his 

daughters and grandchildren return for the unveiling. They bring with them 

someone who will change life at Jarulan forever, who will fight the ghosts of 

the past and the claimants of the present, and ensure a dynasty, though not as 

anyone expected. 

Epic, sensuous, brimming with wildlife, love, beauty, babies, ill deeds, 

revenge, and unions – illicit and condoned – JARULAN BY THE RIVER is a 

glorious story of passion and redemption. A novel with the magic of Colleen 

McCullough, Bryce Courtenay and Cloudstreet.

New treatment for fungal nails 

Feet First, the long-established podiatry 

clinic in Upper Riccarton, now has a 

much more efficient and effective means 

of dealing with the problem of fungal 

nails, thanks to a new machine they 

recently obtained from Britain, where it 

was designed and trialled. 

Clearanail is a procedure where the 

Podiatrists use a machine to make tiny 

holes in the nail without affecting the nail 

bed – a completely pain-free procedure 

that then allows the topical application of 

antifungal solution to directly reach the 

problem area. 

Fungal nails may cause the toenail to 

thicken, which consequently can make 

shoes feel uncomfortable. Anyone who 

believes they have a fungal infection 

of the nails is invited to make an 

appointment for a consultation with Feet 

First so one of the qualified Podiatrists 

can assess if that is the case, and if so, will 

recommend the Clearanail procedure. 

This involves the initial treatment, and 

three follow-up appointments at monthly 

intervals to check progress. 

“Fungal nail infections won’t disappear 

immediately,” clinic director Charlotte 

Russell says, “so people need to commit 

to the process, which can take up to four 

months as the nail grows.” 

She says now is an ideal time to start 

fungal nail treatment with Clearanail, so 

nails will be looking healthy again when 

the warm, sandal-wearing weather arrives. 

Feet First has an introductory offer on 

Clearanail until the end of July. 

Call them on 348-7910 for details. 

The Clearanail machine and related products. 

In addition to offering this highly 

effective treatment, Feet First has another 

unique feature – the Shoe Room. Here, 

clients can browse through a wide 

selection of ‘fashionable, functional 

footwear’ for men and women that not 

only provides support and comfort, but 

also looks modern and attractive. 

The four registered and experienced 

Feet First Podiatrists offer the full range 

of podiatry services for all ages and all 

conditions, with customised treatment 

provided for every client. They also offer a 

range of quality foot treatment products, 

including the German brand Gehwol. 

The clinic at 37 Main South Road is 

open Monday to Friday from 8.30am to 

5pm, with late nights on Monday and 

Thursday to 7pm by appointment. The 

Shoe Room is open Monday to Friday 

Above: Clinic director Charlotte Russell displays one of the modern boot styles 

available in the Shoe Room. Below: The Feet First reception area. 

9am-4pm. There is on-site parking 

available. 

Feet First also runs several satellite 

clinics. These are at the Marshland 

Family Health Centre, Marshland 

Road on Mondays, the Redcliffs 

Clinic, Augusta Street, on Wednesday 

afternoon and Friday morning, the 

Waltham Medical Centre, Waltham 

Road on Wednesday afternoon, and at 

Darfield Pharmacy on Friday.
