Businesses fear road closure 

• By Andrew King 

MORE THAN 9000 vehicles will 

have to find another route in and 

out of the city as major repairs to 

a sewer line in Edgeware starts in 

mid-January. 

Repair work to the sewer 

infrastructure under the 

intersection of Madras St and 

Edgeware Rd will mean the 

intersection will be closed for up 

to six weeks. 

Recent data released by the 

New Zealand Transport Agency 

shows on average more than 

9000 cars the route each day. 

But a local business says it is 

not just commuters who will 

suffer. 

Part owner of Peter Timbs 

Meats David Timbs said there 

has been a noticeable drop 

in customers when parts of 

Edgeware Rd have been 

closed. 

“We have been thrown under 

the bus that many times with 

those people who do the road 

works, they have been doing 

it for the last five years and we 

notice a drop of people coming 

through the door,” he said. 

The butchery is located in the 

Edgeware Village. 

“I wouldn’t mind them doing 

it once and doing it well and 

getting it done, everyone can 

tolerate that, but they do it all 

the time and it is very frustrating 

and bad for business.” 

Stronger Christchurch 

Infrastructure Rebuilt Team 

executive general manager Ian 

Campbell said it is in the early 

stages of planning so they cannot 

definitively say how long it will 

be closed for.

route when the Edgeware Rd and Madras St intersection is

FROM 

THE 

EDITOR’S 

DESK News.........................3, 5, 7, 21 

LIKE SO many of you in the 

coastal suburbs, I was perched up 

on the hills after being evacuated 

due to the tsunami risk yesterday. 

Again, like the previous earthquakes, 

I am always taken by the 

wonderful folk we have in this city. 

While I was perched up the top of 

Egnot Heights in Redcliffs, the lads 

in my car decided they would have 

a nap. I was not similarly afflicted 

and had a wander around. 

I found Nicki of North New 

Brighton, who unknowingly 

soothed me with her banter and 

her beaut two-year-old dog. Then, 

Nicki and I found ourselves invited 

into a stranger’s home, who brewed 

us a cup of dearly needed caffeine. 

In her house, were other refugees 

– a school caretaker and a lovely 

young couple from Germany and 

Mexico. 

The earthquakes continue to 

shake us, but they do not shake our 

marvellous Christchurch spirit.

Dancer home to another quake 

• By 

ashion 

Georgia O’Connor-Harding 

AFTER A whirlwind career in 

the Big Apple, a former St Bede’s 

College dancer has returned 

home only to face one of his 

biggest fears – earthquakes. 

The 7.5 magnitude earthquake 

that struck near Hanmer Springs 

was a harsh reminder for 

Hayden Joseph Withers, 21, who 

Gardening 

suffered badly from anxiety and 

trauma after the February 2011 

earthquake. 

He has returned home 

to Bromley and his family 

to take part in The Court 

Theatre’s summer production 

of Legally Blonde after dancing 

professionally in New York city 

for more than two years. 

He left Christchurch to get 

away from the earthquakes and 

otoring 

to study at the American Musical 

and Dramatic Academy, which 

he graduated from in 2014. 

“Getting out of Christchurch 

was helpful but even in New York 

if doors slammed, or there was 

thunder, (or) the subway was 

rattling 

asty 

the street . . . you would 

Bites 

think that is an earthquake,” he 

said. 

Yesterday, Withers and his 

family were evacuated from 

their Bromley home after the 

earthquake struck. 

ON STAGE: Hayden Joseph Withers performing in the musical 

All Shook Up at The Fireside Theatre, Fort Atkinson, Wisconsin, 

United States. 

“I am pretty tired, I was up the 

hill until 7am . . . my mum was 

pretty upset and it reminded me 

a lot of the September 4, 2010, 

earthquake,” he said. 

Withers’ fear of earthquakes 

was amplified after the February 

2011 earthquake when quake 

predictor Ken Ring said an 8.2 

magnitude quake would strike 

on March 20. A 5.1 aftershock 

struck on the day. 

“I thought at that point, that 

was the end . . . for the next while 

I was scared to leave my room, go 

anywhere,” he said. 

He said while he was reasonably 

calm about yesterday’s earthquake 

and was still attending 

rehearsals at The Court Theatre, 

he had not yet processed it. 

Fresh from his most recent 

endeavour sailing around the 

Caribbean on the Disney Dream 

cruise trip as a dancer, Withers 

knows a thing or two about 

facing his fears to chase his 

dreams. 

“I am actually scared of the 

ocean. Sometimes I would get 

really anxious and I would be 

crying or whatever,” he said. 

Withers was seven when he 

nearly drowned after slipping 

on a rock and falling into a river, 

staying under water for about 

30sec before his father rescued 

him. 

But he said he braved his fear 

of the ocean to work for what he 

describes as the “most magical 

company in the world.” 

“Making magic for so many 

people every day was so special 

. . . the kids just die for it – they 

love it.” 

As for living in New York, 

Withers describes it as a place of 

beauty, culture and opportunity, 

but somewhere you are a small 

fish in a big pond. 

On his return to New York, 

Withers plans to find a place 

to settle down after “gypsying” 

around the United States for 

so long before he gets back to 

auditioning for shows. 

In Brief 

HOMESTEAD OPENING 

Mona Vale Homestead will open 

later this month. The building 

has been going through extensive 

strengthening and restoration 

work after it was damaged 

in the February 22, 2011, earthquake. 

The project cost $2.8m. 

Cr Jamie Gough will unveil the 

finished project to the public on 

November 28 at 10am. 

CYCLEWAY PLAN

Your Local Views 

From recovery to 

regeneration 

ews 

City councillor Jamie 

Gough writes about 

the central city 

recovery 

We are possibly entering 

the most exciting time in 

our rebuild. We’re moving 

ashion 

from ‘recovery’ into ‘regeneration.’ 

It’s a strategic and defining 

period. A Government-appointed 

Independent Hearings Panel is rewriting 

our District Plan, though 

one item is of particular concern: 

The Temporary Accommodation 

Legislation. 

It was set to expire this year, meaning 

businesses that were displaced from the 

Gardening 

CBD and relocated to suburbia due to the 

earthquake would need to move back to 

the city. The IHP has, however, extended 

this out until 2021. 

I will be the first to say that this legislation 

was required in the initial aftermath 

of the earthquake. 

We’re however, in a completely different 

time now. 

otoring 

For our rebuild be deemed a success 

we will need to have a central city that 

thrives. The major contributor to that is 

critical mass, and with the imperative 

removed for these businesses to, once 

again, operate centrally, it will drastically 

stagnate if not irreparably 

impair the quality of our city’s 

rebuild as a whole. 

Further to this, residents 

who have chosen to live in a 

suburban setting have quite 

rightly run out of patience. 

They chose to live where 

they do for a reason, and that wasn’t 

because they loved not being able 

to park outside their homes due to 

masses of office workers and customers 

placing huge strain on the 

residential infrastructure. 

If the city was still in lock-down, 

then of course one could understand 

the decision of the IHP. This, however, 

couldn’t be further from the truth. 

The central office offering is vast and 

landlords are having a race to the bottom 

with rents. It’s a tenant’s dream. A-Grade 

space is being offered at B-Grade prices 

– with eye-watering fit-out incentives to 

boot – and there’s still even more quality 

space set to come on-stream. 

We need to influence the IHP into 

showing the intestinal fortitude to realise 

that you’re never too far down the wrong 

path to reassess matters and make the 

right call. We have one chance to get this 

rebuild right but I just can’t stomach seeing 

our city’s legacy being that of squandered 

opportunities. 

FLAME FILES 

Handling fireworks 

more responsibly 

Fire risk 

management 

officer Mark 

Thomas 

talks about 

fireworks, 

banning certain 

kinds, the 

impact public 

displays have 

had on public 

safety and 

looking after animals around Guy 

Fawkes. 

Thirty years ago Guy Fawkes night caused 

a holding of breath by just about every 

firefighter in the country. 

Inevitably somewhere a sawmill would 

end up burning end to end. Or a town 

would be circled in flames as trees and 

scrub went up in flames. Or someone 

not even celebrating the night would find 

their garage on fire. 

The news would report the tragic loss of 

an eye by ill-used skyrocket. Letter boxes 

were the target of ‘double-happy’ bombs. 

For firefighters it made no sense at all. 

Thankfully we’ve come on a bit since 

then. The ban on 

rockets and bangers 

helped. The 

provision of public 

displays has been 

a big plus. And 

perhaps we should 

acknowledge 

that more recent 

developments in 

health and safety 

has had an effect on 

people’s behaviour. 

Whatever the reasons it was gratifying 

to see just nine fire calls overnight on 

November 5. Grass, scrub, fences and a 

couple of bins put down to fireworks. It’s 

not perfect. But it’s encouraging. 

Animal rescues are also quite common 

around Guy Fawkes as crackers terrify 

dogs, cats and other animals. This week 

saw three of these type of incidents, a 

dog, some ducklings and very topically a 

lamb stuck in a stream at Cashmere on 

Wednesday night. None were necessarily 

fireworks related but all involved the 

problem solving skills our firefighters 

develop every day in the multitude of 

different events they now attend. They’re 

pretty damn good actually.

Orana park meerkats 

part of fundraiser 

ashion 

• By Caitlin Miles 

 

A SPECIAL connection between 

Community Energy Action and 

some meerkats has them on the 

cover of its fundraising calendar. 

CEA has been sponsoring the 

meerkats at Orana Wildlife Park 

for the last three years, marketing 

Gardening 

co-ordinator Emily Coffey said 

the not for profit organisation 

supports them as they share a lot 

of values with them. 

“We feel like our community 

values align with meerkats’ values. 

They look after one another, 

focus on looking after one another 

and caring about their 

otoring 

environment. That’s what we are 

about,” Miss Coffey said. 

This year CEA teamed up with 

Orana to create a calendar as part 

of CEA’s annual fundraiser for 

the park. 

Miss Coffey said the decision 

was “a bit spur of the moment” 

and took about two months to get 

the whole thing together.

“Once we came up with the 

idea they were on board we’re 

really excited to be working with 

Orana on this,” Miss Coffey said. 

The calendar features a selection 

of animals from the park, 

which Orana provided. 

The meerkats take centre stage, 

not only being on the cover but 

also with a small photo on every 

page accompanied by some energy 

saving tips. 

“It’s about making people aware 

of the ways they can save energy 

and money and getting that education 

out there,” she said.

Road closure fear 

•From page 1 

“At this stage we expect that 

there will be a detour in place 

via Manchester St for city 

traffic,” he said. 

“We’ll let the public know 

as soon as we are more 

advanced in our project planning 

and are able to advise 

the expected duration of this 

intersection’s closure and the 

specifics of the diversions.” 

City councillor and 

Papanui-Innes Community 

Board member Pauline Cotter 

said local business need the 

support of the community. 

“They have been hammered 

with the closure of Edgeware 

Rd in the past. But this is 

work that needs to be done. 

Hopefully, people will continue 

to support those businesses 

during this time,” she said.

they will work closely with

rECiPE: CHiPoTLE LENTiL TACos 

wHY PLANT-BAsED? 

sPiCE mix: 

11/2 tsp whole cumin 

1 tsp smoked paprika 

1 tsp dried oregano 

1/2 tsp dried thyme 

1/2 tsp salt 

Better food. Better you. Better planet. 

1 C dried black lentils 

or 2 tins 

12 tortilla corn or flour 

1 onion 

3 cloves garlic 

3 Tbs tomato paste 

2 Tbs tinned chipotle 

chopped into a paste 

or chipotle hot sauce 

2 tomatoes 

1/2 red onion 

10g coriander 

juice of half a lemon 

2 avocado 

This recipe was served 

by Green Dinner Table on 

October 2nd 2016. 

1. To make the spice mix toast 

the cumin in a dry fry pan 

then combine with all other 

ingredients. 

2. If you’re using dry lentils - In 

a medium pot of boiling salted, 

water cook lentils for 30-35 

minutes or until tender. Once 

cooked, strain and set aside. 

If you’re using cans strain and 

set aside. 

3. While the lentils are cooking, 

make the pico de gallo. Remove 

the core from the tomatoes and 

dice into 1 cm cubes, finely dice 

the red onion, roughly chop the 

coriander. Mix together in a bowl 

with lemon juice, salt, cracked 

black pepper and a splash of 

olive oil, taste and add more 

lemon or salt, as needed. 

4. Dice white onion and mince 

garlic. If the lentils aren’t cooked 

hold off doing anything else until 

they are. 

Put a large fry pan on medium 

to preheat with a little oil. Sauté 

onion for 2 minutes then add 

the garlic and cook for another 

minute. Add the tomato paste 

and cook for another 30 seconds 

sprinkle in the spice mix. Add 

the lentils and a few splashes 

of water, mash the lentils with a 

potato masher or the back of a 

fork, continue to mash, adding 

more water if it’s looking too dry. 

After a minute or so of mashing 

add the chipotle sauce, if you 

like it spicy add more. 

5. Warm the taco shells by 

wrapping them in a damp tea 

towel and putting them a in the 

oven on a low heat, or in the 

microwave for 30 seconds. 

Alternatively, you can pan fry 

them for 10 seconds on medium 

high heat. 

Halve the avocados and remove 

the stones. Remove the flesh 

from the skin and slice. 

Serve chipotle lentils in tacos 

topped with pico and avocado.

THERE WERE more

A home-cooked cheesy

Ms Frampton said the

Our People 


Tony Murdoch 

A passion for recording 

Your Local Views 

Tony Murdoch has just published his new sports 

history book Black and White about the North Beach 

Surf Lifesaving Club. It coincides with the club’s 

centenary celebrations. Fraser Walker-Pearce spoke 

to him 

You must be thrilled to have 


published the book when you 

did. 

Yes, exactly. It was published in 

time for the club’s centenary celebrations 

over Labour Weekend. 

They had hundreds attend that. 

Is this your first sports history 

book? 

No, I have written two other 

sports histories, one on the 

Riccarton Cricket Club in 2002 

and then in 2013 I did the 150th 

Fashion 

jubilee history of the Christchurch 

Football Club. Then this 

book style. With lots of 

one came along, they asked me 

to do it, and I’ve been doing that 

ever since. 

So you’ve been working on 

this for the past three years? 

Gardening 

Yes. It’s a big project, I think 

it’s about 240 pages. Probably the 

club records weren’t as detailed 

as we would’ve liked but we were 

able to cross-reference with Surf 

Lifesaving New Zealand’s annual 

reports and check most of it off. 

Things like results and that kind 

of thing were hard to check off 

though. 

Who approached you from 

the club to do the project? 

Roger Smith the president of 

the club talked to me about it. 

He’s lived and breathed the club 

for about three or four years. 

What’s different about this 

book compared to your others? 

This one is more of a coffee 

newspaper clippings like the 

famous gala dances at North 

Beach. That’s basically how 

the club got through the Great 

Depression and that kind of 

thing. [In the book] there are ads 

for the dances, we used the full 

width of the page in the book 

with these photos and I think it 

really adds to the look of the book 

as well. 

Obviously it’s called Black and 

BLACK AND WHITE: Tony Murdoch has coincided the publication 

of his sports history book Black and White with the centenary 

celebrations of the surf club it is written about. 

PHOTO: GEOFF SLOAN 

White, but that’s also the style of 

the book you’ve created? 

No, no. There’s a story to that. 

It’s called Black and White because 

the club colours are black 

and white. But also the personality 

of the club is very pragmatic, 

they’re hard workers and they get 

things done. They make black and 

white decisions and they don’t 

muck around – they’re black and 

white about everything. I ran that 

past the committee near the start 

and they were well pleased to 

think that’s what people think of 

the club. 

How was the club founded? 

The original thought was that 

it was a group of men who were 

members of the New Brighton 

Surf Lifesaving Club who got 

together and decided to make 

a club a little further along the 

beach. But the real story is that 

there was a guy called Ray Blank. 

It became pretty clear as I was 

looking into it that Ray Blank 

and a group of guys from a North 

Beach businessman’s association 

got together and had land 

interests in the area. They decided 

that if there was a surf club in the 

area that would bring people out 

there and raise their house prices. 

And they did quite well out of it. 

Do all of your books look 

quite deep into the club’s history? 

Yes, each of the books has a 

twist to them somewhere in it. 

The twist in the rugby book was 

me saying that the conventional 

theory of the first game of rugby 

in the country was played in Nelson 

in 1871 was wrong.

Our People 

our sporting history 

Your iews Local Views 

It’s in all the official New Zealand 

histories saying that. But the 

Christchurch book showed quite 

clearly that wasn’t the case. They 

couldn’t have – as the game didn’t 

exist in New Zealand back then, 

they just played a hybrid game 

of soccer. It was actually out of 

Christ’s 

ews 

College that the game in 

Christchurch grew. 

What are the other titles of 

your books? 

The Riccarton Cricket Club 

book is called Green and Gold, 

and the rugby book was called 

The Old Club, just like the old 

newspapers used to call them. 

How 

ashion 

would you define your 

style of books? 

Lots of anecdotes, lots of 

personalities. This book goes 

through a whole lot of life members, 

and families of members. 

These are guys that are prepared 

to swim out 400-500m to save 

someone. I mean, can you do 

that? I certainly can’t. 

Gardening 

No, I’d definitely 100 per cent years. Previously I was the chief 

drown. Do you work part-time executive of Canterbury Cricket 

as well as all of this? 

and chief executive of Athletics 

Yes, I have a full-time job at St New Zealand. I was a teacher at 

Bede’s College. I’m the alumni Aranui High School before that. 

and community development You have a huge sporting 

manager. I’ve been there for eight background, did you ever play 

CLASSIC RACES: North Beach surf club’s 1981 crew. The last 

surf crew to win a national title in the long course race until this 

year. 

yourself? 

Modestly. I played rugby and 

cricket, unsurprisingly I played 

rugby for Christchurch and 

cricket for Riccarton. 

How did you start your writing 

career? 

I actually started at the 

Christchurch Star back in the 

day. When I was teaching I also 

co-wrote a few history textbooks. 

There was a group of us at Aranui 

High, including John Rosanowski 

and we wrote a series of history 

books for fifth form (year 11) 

students. 

What subjects did they cover? 

A little bit of New Zealand 

history, Martin Luther King, race 

relations in South Africa, we 

touched on the Springbok Tour. 

Also the gold rushes, New Zealand 

foreign policy, and also two 

books on Hitler and Germany for 

social studies. To teach students 

from your own textbook is quite 

a thrill. 

And were you born and bred 

in Christchurch? 

Yes, born and bred. My brother 

Tim and I have lived in Sumner 

all our lives and I think my next 

project might be on the Sumner 

Surf Lifesaving Club and their 

centenary. 

What schools did you attend 

back in the day? 

I was at St Bede’s and then onto 

Canterbury University where I 

studied American history. After 

that I went on to teaching at 

Aranui High for about 16 years. 

And who’s with you out in 

Sumner? 

My wife and I live out there and 

we have two adult children. I met 

my wife at a dance at the Sumner 

surf club. 

So surf clubs played a big part 

of you growing up as well? 

Surf clubs have a big role in 

what I call the rite of passage. 

They had dances and social 

gatherings, they provided a 

social space for kids in quite an 

interesting time of their lives. 

There aren’t many other sports 

that boys and girls just hang 

out and compete together that 

much. Many men and women 

put countless hours into keeping 

these clubs going as well. 

Why do you write sports 

history books? 

If you look in the book, there’s 

only one thing that has stayed 

in the North Beach community 

for the past 100 years, and that’s 

the surf club. There’s been post 

offices and cafes and restaurants 

and that kind of thing but the 

only thing that is still there is the 

volunteer-run surf club. So I kind 

of write to give them their turn in 

the sun even if only for a minute.

• By Fraser Walker-Pearce 

MARSHLAND AND 

Waitakiri were two of 

three schools in the 

city to be showcased to 

international guests last 

week. 

On Friday, the two eastern 

schools, along with 

Halswell School, hosted 

top education officials 

from Ireland, Japan, Turkey, 

Greece and Mexico. 

The officials were shown 

the schools’ flexible learning 

spaces and “studentcentred

Education Minister Hekia

“New Zealand’s schools 

are of great interest in the 

international community,” 

she said. 

“Our curriculum puts 

the students at the centre 

of learning, and each 

school has a unique vision 

for how it delivers quality 

teaching and learning.” 

Waitakiri, Marshland 

and Halswell schools 

have all been rebuilt since

SILVERWARE: The Cobham Intermediate girls’ cricket team took home silver medals for their effort in a recent interschool 

tournament. The team, led by captain Kate Hastings (back row, fourth from right), played three 20-over games 

against Ashgrove School from Rangiora, Heaton Intermediate and Waimea College from Nelson. Against Ashgrove, the 

girls chased down the visitor’s total of 54 in just four overs, with wide balls accounting for some of that. Then against 

Heaton, Cobham chased 103 and fell just short losing their final wicket in the 20th over with a total of 101. The final match 

against Waimea saw Cobham score 114 for the loss of two wickets. Top bowling from Millie Shanahan and Molly Stagg 

ensured Cobham’s win.

CHAT WITH MATT 

The start of work on the Northern 

Corridor is good news for residents 

on both sides of the river. I joined 

the Prime Minister and the Minister 

of Transport on 4 November to turn 

the sod in Northern Christchurch for 

the $240 million project, which is 

being built under the National-led 

Government’s Roads of National 

Significance Programme. The project 

will reduce congestion, deliver 

improved journey times and support 

economic development in our area. 

Northern Christchurch residents 

will appreciate the new four-lane 

motorway that will divert traffic 

smoothly to QEII Drive, reducing 

traffic on local roads and creating a 

safer environment for our families 

walking and biking to schools and 

shops. 

It’s been a full year of milestones 

and openings in the electorate, and 

confirms what I hear from meeting 

a range of people in my role who 

Funded by Parliamentary Service and authorised by 

Matt Doocey MP, 130A Percival St, Rangiora. 

are upbeat that we are on track and 

heading in the right direction. 

It was good to have the support of 

local residents and stakeholders at 

the opening of my Belfast office, with 

representatives from the community 

board, school and Belfast Community 

Network. I’m enjoying offering 

Northern Christchurch residents a 

nearby location to meet with me. 

The Northwood Fair and Belfast 

Primary School Fair were great 

opportunities to catch up with 

our local residents with my family. 

Congratulations to the organisers for 

these events, which provide safe and 

fun entertainment for our residents. 

I enjoyed speaking at the Belfast 

Friendly Club Housie day and joining 

in some of the games. The group do 

good work in our community and I 

enjoyed the opportunity to show my 

support.

BISHOPDALE 

Fun for the entire family 

Mark your calendars and join the community fun to celebrate 

Bishopdale. Sunday, November 20th at Bishopdale Park – 

Harewood Road & Leacroft Street, 11am-2pm 

Celebrate Bishopdale began in 

2013 as a thank you event to the 

community. It was so well received 

that the day has now become an 

annual community festival. Over the 

past few years attendance has grown 

from 300 people at the inaugural event 

to over 1,000 attendees last year. 

Celebrate Bishopdale showcases 

a variety of activities for families 

including a bouncy castle, climbing 

wall, stone carving, local school 

and group stage performances, plus 

affordable food and market stalls. A 

majority of the market and information 

stalls are local groups and businesses 

there to say hi and raise awareness, 

attract new members or fundraise for 

their organisation. 

Keith Walker and Keith de Dulin are 

returning again this year as the MC’s. 

Keith de Dulin endeared himself to 

kiwi schools and TV audiences starting 

in the 80’s as community cop Constable 

Keith with his trusty sidekick, Sniff. 

Together they were welcomed far 

and wide for their down-to-earth 

banter as the duo appeared regularly 

on the children’s TV show What 

Now, visited schools and hospitals 

and even put out a cassette of their 

songs. Sniff, the rough and ready 

police dog with a gravelly voice, was 

the perfect foil for good-hearted traffic 

cop Constable Keith, who would bring 

Sniff and their audience up-to-date on 

safety messages. 

Performing at this year’s festival is 

Bishopdale’s very own resident Pat 

Dugan. Known as the Godfather of 

Country Music he will be delighting 

the audience with his music. 

We look forward to seeing you all 

there on Saturday, November 20th. An 

event not to be missed!

BISHOPDALE 

History behind the event 

The idea to hold the festival was the 

result of a Community Conversation, 

hosted by the Fendalton/Waimairi 

Community Board in 2012. This meeting 

was a chance for residents and community 

groups to meet together to share ideas and 

goals for their community. The people 

spoke about wanting some fun days, 

focused on family and community events, 

where neighbours could 

meet neighbours and all 

families, no matter their 

size, culture or circumstance 

could meet together to 

celebrate their area. 

Together the Christchurch 

City Council staff work 

closely with the Bishopdale 

Community Trust to plan and 

deliver the now annual event 

to the Bishopdale area. 

The Bishopdale Community 

Trust are dedicated to the 

enhancement and support for 

the Bishopdale community 

and welcome visitors at 

their community centre 

located at the Sundbye House, 

100 Farrington Ave. At the 

community centre they offer a 

wide range of services and events 

to the neighbourhood, with a 

special emphasis on activities for 

families and seniors. 

The Bishopdale Community Trust 

provides a welcoming and safe 

environment at the Sundbye House where 

people of all ages can meet new friends, 

develop new skills, build confidence and 

their self-esteem, recognise their skills and 

strengths and be given the opportunity to 

share with others. 

The centre is a centralised location which 

fosters a sense of community 

belonging, connectedness 

and inclusion, which is vital 

to assist in the reduction of 

social isolation. 

All are invited to stop by 

and have a chat with our 

wonderful staff. Look at 

our schedule of events and 

see how you would like to 

become involved.

History behind the 

neighbourhood 

The suburb is named after the three 

Bishop brothers, James (1826–1910), 

Robert (1827–1909) and William (1829– 

1903), who bought land in the area in 1858 

or 1859 and established pipfruit orchards. 

Initially, the area was called Bishopsdale, 

but the second ‘s’ was dropped from the 

name. Part of Greers Road (the section 

between Harewood Road and Sawyers 

Arms Road) was formerly called Bishop’s 

Road. It was renamed in 1948 to avoid 

confusion with Bishops Road in Papanui 

and Bishop Street in St Albans.

Anxiety and breathing 

– are they related? 

When good breathing goes bad 

Have you experienced any of these 

breathing difficulty symptoms? 

• Disturbed sleep 

• Erratic heartbeats* 

• Feeling anxious and uptight 

• Upset gut/nausea 

• Chest pains* 

• Shattered confidence 

• Tired all the time 

• Achy muscles and joints 

• Dizzy spells* or feeling spaced out 

• Irritability or hypervigilance 

• Frequent yawning and sighing 

• Breathing discomfort* 

• Pins and needles 

• Feelings of ‘air hunger’ 

*Check with your doctor if you experience these symptoms. 

These questions are asked on the website 

www.BradCliff.com. BradCliff was started by 

North Island physiotherapists Dinah Bradley 

and Tania Cliffton Smith, who specialise 

in hyperventilation and anxiety treatment. 

Their website notes one in 10 people 

experience some form of breathing pattern 

disorder or chronic over breathing at some 

time in their lives, resulting in a range of 

disturbing or frightening symptoms puzzling 

to you and your doctor. 

You feel unwell because of overbreathing, 

and overbreathing makes you feel unwell. 

A vicious cycle is established, which is a 

major stress all by itself. This is experienced 

currently by many Cantabrians, says Ietje 

van Stolk of Physical Sense Gym & Physio. 

As she explains, it is normal to breathe fast 

and in the upper chest when we are in danger 

and fight or flight is needed. We know all 

about that here, due to the earthquakes. 

Normally, once the danger is gone, our 

breathing should restore itself within a 

couple of days. We would then be using the 

diaphragm for our normal nonstressed 

breathing. We have been having a hard 

time restoring our breathing pattern here 

in Canterbury because every time our body 

tried to achieve that, the next aftershock came 

rolling in. Even though the aftershocks have 

significantly diminished, some people’s fight 

or flight mode breathing has become chronic, 

or habitual, Ietje says. And, as she points out, 

using the wrong muscles for breathing means 

these overworked muscles cause headaches, 

neck pain and jaw pain. 

With fast upper chest breathing, sighing 

and yawning, the resulting disturbance of our 

oxygen and carbon dioxide levels can give us 

the feeling we are not able to control our own 

body. One moment you are are feeling fine, 

next moment your chest feels tight, you feel 

out of breath, your heart beats erratically and 

you may even experience dizziness and/or 

tingling. Very scary if you do not understand 

what is happening. No wonder this causes 

anxiety. Not being the boss over our own 

body makes us anxious, anxiety feeds the 

faulty breathing pattern, and so it goes on. 

The BradCliff physiotherapists have 

established a national network of practitioners 

that regularly train together and can help you 

overcome this problem. 

Physical Sense is part of that network. 

To make an appointment phone 377 2577.

Gallery numbers 

below target 

Fashion 

• By Bridget Rutherford 

CHRISTCHURCH Art 

Gallery did not meet 

its visitor target for the 

first three months of 

the financial year, while 

Gardening 

Canterbury Museum has 

had record numbers. 

The city council’s 

performance report from 

July to September 30 

showed it had hoped to 

get about 400,000 visitors. 

However, it had met 72 

per cent of its target. 

Motoring 

Meanwhile, Canterbury 

Museum achieved 

record visitor numbers in the past two 

months for its exhibition Air New Zealand 

75 Years. 

September saw 48,879 visitors, while in 

October, 63,815 people visited. 

City council customer and community 

general manager Mary Richardson said 

Canterbury Museum was better served by 

Tasty Bites 

bus routes and tourist buses. 

She said the city council was looking at 

a bus parking area for near the gallery. 

“This is likely to be considered by committee 

early next year.” 

There were also a range of road works 

around the gallery, she said, and the gallery’s 

car park was still closed. 

The city council hoped once the car 

park was reopened at the end of the 

month and it has leased the cafe early 

next year, numbers would pick back up, 

she said. 

The gallery was officially reopened in 

December after being damaged in the 

February 2011 earthquake. 

It cost $60 million to repair.

AUTOMOTIVE PROFESSIONALS 

No job too small at 

this repair business 

Scratch on the bumper? Dent in the door? 

Damage like this can happen so easily – in 

supermarket car parks, for example. And 

the place to get minor damage quickly and 

professionally repaired is SMART Repairs 

in Lichfield Street. 

SMART (Small to Medium Automotive 

Repair Techniques) Repairs provides a topquality 

service with a quick turnaround 

– vehicles are usually in and out within a 

couple of days. 

SMART Repairs is owned and operated 

by Brian and Maxine Caffell, who bought 

their first panelbeating business in 1993. 

Brian has a total of 31 years’ experience in 

the trade, so customers can be confident 

they will get a first-class job. 

Services include paintless dent removal, 

or PDR, and while a large percentage of 

their work is non-insurance, they also 

provide insurance quotes and carry out 

those repairs quickly and efficiently. 

To keep their customers on the road while 

their vehicle is in the workshop, SMART 

Repairs recently acquired a courtesy car, 

and this has already proven to be a great 

help for people, Maxine says. They also offer 

a pick-up and delivery service if required. 

As a small, friendly operation, SMART 

Repairs specialises in small to medium 

repair work, with no job too small, Maxine 

says. Their aim is to provide personalised 

service, and make it easy for customers 

unsure what to do if their vehicle is 

damaged. 

“We take pride in our work and ensure 

that our customers are happy with the 

results.” 

SMART Repairs is located at 272 

Lichfield Street, at the Fitzgerald Avenue 

end. Opening hours are Monday to Friday, 

8am-4.30pm.

vehicle, call in, or phone 377-0409.

New Hope For Long Term 

Back Pain Sufferers 

After more than eight years in 

New Zealand, Teeter Hang-Ups 

have now gained a reputation 

for success with long-term 

sufferers of Back pain. Inversion 

New Zealand was started 

eight years ago by Dave and 

Nancy Hare, Dave had 

suffered over twenty years of 

back pain from Degenerated 

Discs and had basically given 

up and decided to just live 

with it. “To me surgery was 

never an option” he said “as 

long as I still could walk, there 

was hope”. 

Dave had tried everything; 

every time he was overseas 

he would search for anything 

that could possibly help. 

While on one of these 

overseas trips eight years ago, 

Dave discovered the Teeter 

Hang-Ups. “The first time I 

tried it, the pain disappeared 

and I was completely pain 

free for about 30 minutes, 

nothing had done that” he 

told me. Dave never believed 

it would fix him, “as specialists 

had told me it was irreversible, 

I now knew I had a place 

to go every time I wanted 

some serious relief”. 

To Dave’s surprise the more 

he used the table the longer 

the pain stayed away, until 

after nearly three months he 

was completely pain free, “I 

couldn’t believe it’ he told me 

“I had spent large amounts of 

money on every form of treatment 

available and here 

was something I had never 

heard of sorting it out for 

me in a very short period of 

time” It was then Dave 

decided to introduce Teeter 

into New Zealand and Inversion 

NZ was born. 

Over the years INZ have 

helped thousands of people 

get some serious relief and 

have seen results in not only 

backs, but necks, hips, 

knees, posture, circulation, 

increased height, blood 

pressure and lots more. 

“We have testimonials from 

people with over fifty years 

of back problems and even 

have them in a number of 

schools in New Zealand for 

their special needs children” 

he told me, “the blood to the 

brain helps these kids and 

the results are excellent” 

What this means for the 

aging population is that it 

helps maintain the health of 

the brain as we all get older. 

Dave told me that he 

realised that, had he not 

tried the Teeter for himself 

he would still be suffering, “I 

would still be a miserable 

grumpy bugger, living with 

pain, that is why we do the 

shows, people need to try it 

for themselves” he told me 

“most people actually get 

off with the pain either gone 

or considerably less” he said 

“we let the tables do the 

talking” 

IT IS PURE LOGIC AS TO HOW 

THE TEETER TABLE WORKS 

Discs: It uses gravity to apply traction, 

the traction gently opens the discs and as 

they open up they create suction, this 

suction draws fluid from the surrounding 

tissue back into the discs, re-hydrating 

them. This is the key! Discs do not have 

their own blood supply, they rely on 

transfer of fluid from the surrounding 

tissue to keep them healthy and hydrated 

and over the years as discs get thinner with 

age, they lose the ability to take on fluid 

(just like squeezing a sponge) and they 

start to de-hydrate. 

De-Hydrated discs are less flexible, they are 

harder, more prone to injury, they interfere 

with nerve roots creating pain and 

ultimately the de-hydration causes degeneration. 

The Teeter Inversion table slowly 

and gently brings the hydration back into 

the discs, plumping them up. This brings 

back lost height (most people will regain 

around 2 CM of height), it separates the 

nerve roots far more effectively and returns 

quality of life 

Muscles: A lot of pain is muscular, when 

muscles are stressed they become tight 

which restricts the flow of blood and lymph 

through the muscles so toxins build up, 

Co2 and Lactic Acid. Traction opens up the 

muscles, Rhythmic Traction, is a gentle 

rocking motion that stimulates circulation 

and encourages blood flow through the 

muscles, which clears the lactic acid into 

your lymph system where it stimulates 

lymph flow and deals with it. Most people 

with serious neck issues see a large 

improvement after only one treatment.

Frank Harwood (84) of Turangi using his Teeter, Frank has been 

Inverting for over eight years and has found it keeps him young 

Posture: Poor posture is one of the 

major cases of pain and is a major contributor 

to the deterioration of the body with 

age. A difference in leg length causes most 

of the hip and knee issues, as they continue 

to place uneven loads on the joints; 

similar to the wheels out of alignment on 

your car. 

Trying to correct posture is extremely 

difficult due to muscle memory, as it 

constantly pulls the muscles back to where 

they were. At a level of 40 degrees or more 

on the Teeter, the muscle groups open up 

and eventually come back into alignment, 

using the table daily, does not allow the 

muscle memory to pull them back out of 

alignment and slowly the muscles start to 

lose their memory and go with the flow, 

allowing the body to come back into 

correct posture. Then using the table once a 

day will ensure it is kept there. 

This is pure logic, if a machine is out of 

alignment it does not last long, the only 

difference between the body and a 

machine is that the body is constantly 

repairing itself, however if the wear and 

tear on the body is greater than the body’s 

ability to repair itself, it is a slow decline. 

The Teeter slowly brings the body out of its 

decline and allows the body to repair itself, 

resulting in a far healthier life.

health and really sorting your issues out,

TESTIMONIAL 

DEAR DAVE AND NANCY 

In 2008 I had been living with a serious lower back pain for 

many years due to two discs with serious degeneration and 

was scheduled for a double spinal fusion at a cost of 

$48,000. The Specialist had recommended many lifestyle 

changes including changing my profession, which was not 

practical as I own my own business. 

At the Waikato Home Show I experienced a demonstration 

on a Teeter Inversion Table by Dave and Nancy Hare. To me 

the effect was amazing, I actually experienced some serious 

relief which lasted for an hour or two, I was told that the 

relief would last longer with time as long as I used the table 

regularly, so with the surgery scheduled for 12 weeks time, 

having nothing to lose and a lot to gain I purchased a Teeter. 

Four years on I still use my table on a daily basis, my back is 

as strong as ever with very little or completely no pain, I am 

still at my same profession and working as hard as ever and 

most importantly I did not have the surgery. I consider the 

purchase of my Teeter has been one of my greatest 

investments, not only has it enabled me to avoid serious and 

costly surgery, it has kept me in my profession and it has 

brought my health back. 

Thank you very much for the opportunity. 

Very best regards

BACK or NECK PAIN? 

Come along for a free treatment 

Here in New Zealand, 

Dr Giresh Kanji, one of the countries most 

respected Pain Specialists completed a PhD on 

how humans experience pain and then 

researched lower back pain, writing "Fix Your 

Back" and then spent a few years researching 

neck pain, headache and migraine and wrote 

"Fix Your Neck Pain, Headache & Migraine", 

both books are in most bookstores. 

Dr Kanji discovered in his research that the disc 

is the most likely source of low back pain and 

Inversion showed the best results of all the trials 

conducted. Three studies showed a 60% 

reduction in pain and one showed a 75% 

reduction in surgery for people with disc 

prolapse. 

Dr Kanji has personally been using the Teeter 

Inversion tables for his own low back pain, has 

Teeter Inversion tables at both of his clinics in 

Wellington (The Sports and Pain Clinic) and has 

had such success that he is now conducting the 

largest study in the World on Inversion Therapy. 

In his own words, "these things are gold and 

inversion should be a first line treatment for low 

back pain”.

Wright Spa Hornby Superstore 

Spa pool specialists now 

open in Hornby 

One of the city’s most well-known businesses, Wright Spa Pools 

of Ferrymead, has just opened a new branch in Hornby. 

Located at 20 Carmen Road, the premises formerly 

occupied by Hampton Motor Cycles is conveniently 

close to their client base, co-owner Matt Lowe says. 

“We service the mid-Canterbury area, and with the 

growth of the Lincoln, Rolleston and Selwyn areas, we 

saw this site as ideal for the expansion of our business.” 

The premises are almost three times the size of the 

family-owned business’ Ferry Road site, where they 

were running out of space, and are “as close as they 

could get to a purpose-built site”. 

Established in 1978, and trading on Ferry Road 

since 1991, Wright Spa Pools specialises in the world’s 

number one selling spa pools, the US-manufactured 

Hot Spring spa pools. 

“These Hot Spring spa pools are unique in that all 

models are fully insulated, unlike other spa pools on the 

market, and this makes them the most energy-efficient 

spa pools in the world,” Matt says. 

Models at the higher end of the range incorporate the 

latest technology, utilising the ACE Salt Water sanitising 

system, that works on real diamond electrodes to 

generate softer, cleaner water. Offering a range of less 

expensive models as well, Wright Spa Pools caters for 

all budgets and requirements. 

A new top-end line that has just been introduced is 

the Endless Swim Spa, which provides a smooth and 

consistent current for swimming against, with options 

including an underwater hydraulic treadmill. 

“These are the number one swim spas in the world,” 

Matt says. “Unlike most swim spas that use jets to move 

the water, the Endless Swim Spa provides a current like 

a river, creating a more natural flow.” 

Designed to offer therapeutic benefits, this spa is 

ideal for low-impact exercise and is a cost-effective 

alternative to a swimming pool, he says. Endless Swim 

Spas are also easy to maintain, the water temperature 

can be adjusted at the push of a button, and they can 

be moved. 

Spa pool prices range from $5,990 right up to $100,000 

- those considering purchasing one are invited to “try 

before they buy” at the showroom. 

“People can come in with their family and test out 

the different models. A spa pool is a major investment, 

so clients need to be sure they choose the right one for 

them,” Matt says. “We will also do on-site visits if they 

are not sure of the best place to install it.” 

Wright Spa Pools provides a full delivery and 

installation service, and after-sales support. 

“We don’t just drop off the spa pool, we set it up and 

explain how to operate it.” 

To complete the outdoor lifestyle experience, Wright 

Spa Pools has a range of Bull barbeques, also imported 

from the US. Like the Hot Spring spa pools, they are 

manufactured to the highest standard and are built to 

last. 

Wright Spa Pools Hornby is owned and operated by 

brothers Matt and Jeff Lowe. Their team of friendly sales 

and service professionals are ready to discuss your spa 

pool requirements and help you make the right choice. 

The team members are sales manager Nick Davies, 

sales professionals Joe Bergman, Jess Ledgerwood and 

Ashley Davies and service and installation specialists 

Shane Hamilton and Scott Sutherland. 

Wright Spa Pools Hornby, 20 Carmen Road, is right 

beside the railway tracks and has 40 on-site customer 

car parks. It is open seven days a week – Monday to 

Friday 9am-5pm; Saturday and Sunday, 10am-4pm. 

Phone 349 0443 for more information. 

The Endless Swim Spa creates a natural, river-like flow.
