THE GLOVES are off for
October’s local body elections
with candidates for council and
the community boards now
known.
But for sitting councillor Tim
Scandrett there will be no contest
– he goes back onto the council
table representing the Cashmere

There is room for only one
councillor in each ward. Let the
contest begin in the other wards;
that’s what democracy is all about.
On page 3 we detail the latest

Fast food solution sought
AIR
• By Tom Doudney
A CAMPAIGN to crack down
on the proliferation of fast food
outlets has found favour with
city councillors but concerns
were raised over how fast food
could be defined.
Representatives from the
Linwood community, including
schools and health professionals,
made a deputation to the city
council on Thursday asking
for support to limit the ability
of fast food outlets to set up
around schools and low income
areas.
City councillors requested that
staff further investigate options
for possible legislative measures
as well as other measures that
could be taken to encourage
healthy eating and report back
as soon as possible.
All city councillors who
spoke on the matter expressed
support for doing something to
tackle the issue. However, some
including Raf Manji questioned
how fast food could be officially
defined.
“I can see how you could come
up with a planning proposal
where you could limit the size
of food outlets near a school
and that kind of stuff,” Cr Manji
said.

PACKED: The number of fast food outlets in Linwood has caused concern in the community.
“But I think you are delving
into something that is quite
unsolvable in terms of defining
what healthy food is.”
City councillor Yani Johanson
said the city council had a proud
tradition of leading the way on
championing solutions for such
difficult issues.
“We should continue to do
that as we are being asked to
today,” Cr Johanson said.
“This is difficult, and I think
that point has been well made
by everyone, but actually it is
Style is
forever
also very simple – it’s whether or
not we wish to stand up for our
community, for our children, for
the health of our city by taking
a more regulatory approach to
these issues.”
Linwood Medical Centre
medical director Jane Heatherington,
who was part of the
group making the deputation,
said the medical centre had
seen the effect of fast food on its
patients over the 35 years that
it had been part of the community.
“In Linwood we have got a
higher proportion of obese and
overweight children than the
rest of Christchurch,” she said.
“We have obese children who
have high blood pressure, high
cholesterol and sleep apnea, we
see the poor diet affects their
learning and their mood, we
see parents with arthritis and
diabetes and liver damage and
then we see their grandparents
with heart disease, renal failure,
amputations, kidney failure and
early deaths.”
In Brief
QUALITY UPDATE
The Hagley-Ferrymead
Community Board will receive
an update on air quality in
Bromley and Woolston at its
meeting today. The Woolston
monitoring station has recorded
four high pollution nights so
far this year. Environment
Canterbury staff will be in
attendance to brief the board.
NEW STREET NAME
Wilrose Lane has been proposed
as the name for a new lane off
Randolph St, Linwood. The
lane serves six properties being
developed by the Gartshore Group.
The name is a combination of
the first names of William and
Rose Gartshore who founded the
company.
FREEDOM CAMPING BYLAW
Public consultation has opened
on proposed changes to the city
council’s Freedom Camping
Bylaw. The changes would
ban all non-self-contained
freedom camping throughout
the district, but allow certified
self-contained camping without
a time restriction in rural zones.
Consultation will close on
September 15 and a full review
of the bylaw is scheduled for next
year.

One man and his 1000 dreams
• By Roy Sinclair
NEIL ANDREWS leads the
way down precarious steps to a
seemingly underground room.
The Huntsbury man flicks on a
light switch.
I am wowed by a high viaduct
spanning a realistic gorge. My
eyes are led to tall forests, tree
ferns galore and a painted backdrop
depicting a stormy sky.
“This is what I do,” he says.
“It is not what I do in my spare
time.
“I mow the lawns in my spare
time.”
The room was purpose-built
for the 9mm (scale 9mm to the
foot) layout representative of a
one-time railway in Northland.
In his garage he is working on
a second, portable, layout. This is
a narrow-gauge railway based on
French townscapes.
Model railways is an interest
he could not be without.
“When I met my partner,
Helen, I told her it is me and my
trains. They are inseparable.
“She accepted that which was
great.”
He describes railway modelling
“as a thousand dreams
held together by a hundred
unfinished jobs. In other words,
a degree of chaos.”
HAND-MADE: Model builder, Neil Andrews and his miniature creation of early last century
Northland.
“Part of the fascination is
delving into history to discover
how it all would have looked like
early last century,” Mr Andrews
said.
He always liked to do things
with his hands. He enjoyed art
at school – and building things.
Even when he had clockwork
railways he was always cutting
up cardboard boxes to make
buildings.
He recalls scoring designs on
pieces of wood to make boats.
Railways became another part
of it.
Getting into more serious railway
modelling during the late
1950s, there was not much stuff
available and if it was he didn’t
have the money.
If he wanted it he made it.
“My mother used to take me to
the railway station. I remember
being in my pushchair watching
the Lyttelton trains come and go.
“Then at primary school I was
quite capable of making an Ecclass
electric locomotive with the
distinctive air compressor tanks
across the front. Everyone could
recognise it.”
Later, any new gadget at his
Canterbury University laboratory
would be first examined to
how it would be useful on the
model railway.
“Then we would work out how
it was intended to be used.”
His workplace became known
as “the model train laboratory.”
That’s what people who visited
talked about.
He travelled to model railroad
conventions in the United States,
becoming a member of the
R.G.S. East Hon3 club.
He visited huge model railway
shows in Cologne and Miniature
Wonderland in Hamburg.
“In Germany a model railway
is like a dishwasher. Everyone
has to have one. And most offerings
are German-made. They are
excellent.
“On one European trip Helen
and I were forced off the road by
Tour de France officials.
“We had to divert into a backwater
countryside.

BUILDING: A train layout under construction and a G-scale
layout at last year’s Christchurch Model Train Show.
“There we found towns of
beautiful buildings with terracotta
roofs. We had discovered
the romance of the French countryside.
“Anything French is different.
If you see a French car you know
it is French because it looks nothing
like anything else. It is the
same with railways.
“Their narrow gauge railways
were basically portable. They
could be picked up and laid
beside a road.
“That really intrigued me. Narrow
gauge secondary lines were
introduced to boost the network
of French railways.’’
The unplanned detour instigated
his French narrow gauge layout.
“One develops a modeller’s
mind.
“A modeller will typically think
how it would look in miniature?”
He talks about Hamburg’s
mind-boggling Miniature Wonderland.
“It’s absolutely intriguing. It’s
a huge collection that is pushing
the boundaries of technology and
inspiring manufacturers to pick
up on it with new products.”
“The model aircraft must
represent the peak of model
building.’’
“The model trains have been
running for so long the track is
wearing out.”
The closest we have in
Christchurch is the annual big
model train Show, this year being
held over the weekend of October
1 and 2.
The venue is Pioneer Stadium
in Lyttelton St, Spreydon. It is the
show’s 25th anniversary so promises
to be special.
Mr Andrews was an instigator
of the event, starting a model
train show at Hagley Community
College and then expanding to
the Horticultural Society hall.
Then, the Christchurch Model
Railway Exhibition Society was
formed and took over. Its growth
took it to Pioneer Stadium where
it has been ever since. At its peak
the show attracted 10,000 people
over the two days.
“It’s about its optimum size.
“Considering our modest
Christchurch population we do a
pretty good job,” he said.
This year’s show will help those
wanting to get into the hobby.
“We will have beginners’ train
sets and heaps of demonstrations.
Find out the best models to buy
and learn how to make things.
“Technology will be to the
fore. This is enhancing the hobby
and drawing younger people in.
They can operate a railway from
a PC or mobile phone, utilising
wi-fi and DCC (digital control
systems).”
He says model railway people
are an enthusiastic bunch. They
will do their utmost to share
what they know.
Andrews will be on the demonstrations
desk. It is likely he will
let slip how to disguise a lot of
money spent on the hobby within
the weekly household bills.

Singer-songwriter has
Singer-songwriter Asti-Loren Newman might only be 18, but she has already
travelled the world and attended the same school as Amy Winehouse. Annabelle
Dick talked to Asti-Loren about her new album, Psychedelic Rose, and getting
barred from the school choir thanks to a questionable comment about her
teacher’s facial hair.
So as a singer-songwriter,
when did you get into music?
I’ve always had a massive
passion for music. When I was
about 11-years-old, I joined
the Christchurch City Chorus,
which is like a 150-person barbershop.
We went to New York
and sung when I was 13, which
was awesome. I worked with
Nolan from the Christchurch
School of Rock in Sumner and
would perform at the Headless
Mexican. I’d also do busking
along the esplanade.
I tried
TALENTED:
Asti-Loren
busked her way
through Europe at
17-years-old.
to join the school choir but got
turned down in year 6, 7 and 8,
because apparently I couldn’t
sing in tune, but I think it was
because I told my music teacher
she had a moustache in front of
the whole class. I told her my
mum is a beauty therapist and
she should go to her and I think
she held that against me. It was
a pretty rude thing for me to say,
but I was only nine-years-old at
the time, so I didn’t know any
better. I was pretty upset about
it so I went to the principal and
told them, ‘I’m setting up my
own barbershop; I’m getting my
own teacher to come and teach it
and I’m going to teach it as well’
and I had more people auditioning
for it than the school choir.
I’ve always been the kind of
person that, if things don’t go my
way, I’m going to make it happen
for myself.
You attended the same music
school as Amy Winehouse –
how did that come about?
When the February 2011
earthquake happened, I was off
school, our house was quite
damaged and my mum
lost her business as well. I
watched the film Fame one
day and I knew I wanted
to go to stage school.
So without telling my
parents, I researched the
best stage schools across
the United States and
the United Kingdom
and I randomly
chose one to
apply for.
I heard
MENTOR: Asti-Loren mentoring Selwyn House Girls School
children last year.
back four days later from the
Susi Earnshaw Theatre School
with a letter of acceptance. Here’s
14-year-old me going, ‘oh no,
what have I done’, so I had to tell
my parents and they were really
supportive. I don’t know many
parents who would let their
14-year-old daughter go to the
UK by themselves.
What was it like attending the
school?
It was awesome. I was the first
person they’d ever had from
Australia/New Zealand. There
was three days a week of dance,
tap, jazz singing, theatre singing,
pop singing, all sorts really. The
teachers were great and really
young, too. One of my teachers
was a back-up dancer for Justin
Bieber and he’d also won
Britain’s Got Talent. I studied
there for two years and then
I got offered a development
contract with a label
in Soho and that’s how I met
my producer Chris Hall who
helped me create my album
Psychedelic Rose. I got to record
in the same vocal booth as Pink
Floyd.
How did it feel living in London
by yourself as a 14-yearold?
That must’ve been a pretty
scary experience?
It wasn’t too scary . . . but
being so young and moving to
another country was a bit of a
culture shock. I had an apartment
just down from school and
I made friends really fast. There
was always people I knew around
me like my uncle in Sweden and
my cousin came through when
he was on his O.E. I wasn’t really
naughty I always had so much
to do. I would go to the London
Central City Library and read
books on Woodstock. I went
to an Audrey Hepburn exhibition
and I’d often go to the East
London markets at the end of
the day and they’d give me free
donuts. They knew when I was
coming and give me all this free
food and I’d walk home with all
my groceries.

the world at her feet
And you travelled a bit from
there?
I’m really spontaneous so I
decided to do a busking tour
around Europe. So I contacted
Interrail and Eurail to see if it
was something they were interested
in – they bought it. So they
gave us a 12-day rail pass and we
went from London to Stockholm
to Copenhagen down to Warsaw
in Poland and then to Prague
then Munich, Salzburg, Venice,
Asti, Monte Carlo, Nice and
then Amsterdam all in 12 days
with my best friend who’s a New
Zealand windsurfer. While this
was happening I was only 17. I
have about 50,000 fans online so
I’d post each day were I was and
I’d have all these people turn up
– I didn’t really expect it at all. I
made about €200 (euro) busking
in each city.
So tell me about your
music and your new album
Psychedelic Rock which you
recently released?
The music I’ve established as
my brand is more electronic.
This album is influenced by
the 60s and 70s Americana,
Woodstock and that whole
hippy movement. I love the
era. I watched Jim Carroll’s The
Basketball Diaries and read a
novel he wrote . . . it’s really raw.
This album draws a lot from that.
This album is a concept album
I’ve written myself. It goes from
dark to light as I have this thing
called synaesthesia where I see
music and colour so it helps a
lot with my writing, it’s a bit of
a blessing. I wrote the album’s
track names before I wrote the
songs. I’ve written a novel to
go along with the album and
eventually I want to make it into
a short film. People can interpret
my music any way they want.
They’re not pop songs – it’s a
lot more than that. I don’t just
sit back and let other people
do things for me, I’m a really
involved person in my career so
I do a lot of promoting myself,
I keep up my social media
following and I edit my own
videos.
Do you have any influences
that you draw on when creating
your sound?
I listen to Lana del Rey, The xx,
Haim, Taylor Swift, Marina and
the Diamonds, Fleetwood Mac,
PERFORMING: Asti-Loren’s new album Psychedelic Rose was released on Saturday.
The Zombies, Dire Straits and
Pink Floyd – a real variety really.
I’ve taken different influences
from the greats of each genre and
incorporated them into my work
– whether it’s lyrically, musically
or the way I present myself.
Tell me a bit about growing
up – what’s you’re family like?
I grew up in a house on the top
of Scarborough Hill. I went to
Selwyn House and then St Andrew’s
College. My mother owns
a salon Yazu Hair Salon. She’s
incredibly talented. She’s been
on the L’Oreal creative team and
a part of New Zealand Fashion
Week. She was actually teaching
hairdressing in Asia while
she was eight months pregnant
with me which was pretty crazy.
She’s heavily driven . . . I think
that’s where I get it from. My
mum and my dad met at 15 and
started the business together. He
was going to be a mechanic, but
he’s technically a hairdresser by
trade. They separated when I was
nine so he went to the Caribbean
to buy a boat and sailed it
back to New Zealand to set up a
charter business. So, when I was
younger, I grew up in a boat. I
lived on it in Diamond Harbour
and the Lyttelton marina. I used
to go to school in a dingy. We
had five dalmatian dogs and we’d
be in a five-metre dingy with one
of our dogs at the front and my
brother and I in our posh private
school uniforms. We’d sail from
Diamond Harbour to Lyttelton
and we’d arrive at school soaked.
My little brother Lucca is 16 and
he’s the total opposite of me. He’s
blue-eyed, blonde and tall, while
I’m 1.49m and brunette. We were
both named after towns in Italy.
He’s really into skiing, inventing
and downhill mountain biking.
He made a flame thrower the
other day. I have a weird family.
It sounds like you’ve had an
insanely interesting upbringing!
What else do you love
outside of music?
I love going to the beach and I
love skiing. I did ski racing from
about seven-years-old at Mt
Hutt. We used to go skiing every
single weekend in winter from
when I was seven to 12. I did it
competitively and placed third
in the South Island when I was
younger.
Where to next for you? Where
do you want to end up?
I’m going to the US to film
a music video for my album
next month, then London for
a month, Ho Chi Minh City in
Vietnam after that, and then Bali
all before the end of the year.
Eventually I want to be able to
tour with my albums. I’ve
started on my second album
which is going to be completely
different with a different vibe. To
be a musician as a full time job
is the goal. I’m always aiming
for the top, I’m just that kind of

Fence up in
bid to make
dangerous
site safer
WOOD BROTHERS Mill in
Addington has been fenced off
following a city council-issued
dangerous building notice.
Numerous fires have damaged
the building and it has been the
target of vandalism.
The police, fire service,
city council and owner John
Cameron met recently to
discuss a plan to tackle the
safety issues.
It was damaged in the
September and February
earthquakes, which resulted in
it being red-stickered.
The dangerous building
notice for 14 Wise St was issued
under the provisions of the
Building Act 2004.
The fence will restrict access
to the site, the city council also
requested the sprinkler system
be re-commissioned to allow
firefighters to extinguish fires
without entering the building.
Mr Cameron said the
sprinkler system, while not
compliant, is back up and
running.
The fence will remain
while the dangerous building
declaration is in force.
Ferrymead seeing red
over a green building
• By Annabelle Dick
A NEW Cares Appliances
premises in Ferrymead
has attracted a number of
complaints from residents over
its bright green colour scheme.
The whiteware appliance store
has coped criticism before their
new building has even opened
on Ferry Rd.
It is set to open in early September.
Cares Appliances owner Matthew
Carpenter said it was the
first time he had received complaints,
in spite of his business
being in the city for 10 years.
“I had a complaint that said
the colour was terrible and disgusting.
I’ve also had comments
from third parties who’d seen
the colour and were put off by
it,” Mr Carpenter said.
The new premises drew the
following criticism via text:
“It looks disgusting. Contributes
nothing to Ferrymead. You
won’t get any support bringing
that here . . . sorry! Already the

talk of the community. Just so
you know . . . perhaps a re-think?
It might work at Eastgate.”
Mr Carpenter is welcoming
feedback from residents about
the premises but he said it was
unfair to insult other parts of the
city.
“It’s cruel of them patronise
and disparage the people of
the eastern side but obviously
someone’s got a bit of an elitist
mindset going on,” Mr Carpenter
said.
Mr Carpenter offered the
complainant a discount of 30 per
cent out of good will.
This isn’t the first store of its
kind in the city. There are also
several other chain stores in
Christchurch on Fitzgerald Ave
and Barrington St which have
received no complaints for the
bright-green colour.
“We’ve previously had shops
on Wairakei Rd and Aldwins Rd
and never had comments about
the colours there either,” he said.
Ferrymead residents have been
successful in ousting a brightly
whiteware warehouse
coloured business from the area
before.
In 2007 the Mitre 10 Mega in
Ferrymead building attracted
complaints for featuring a
160m-long bright orange wall
that overlooked the conservation
wetland.
The company eventually
agreed to repaint the wall
silvery-white after local residents
threatened a boycott.

“I’m concerned that it’s a repeat
of the Mitre 10 controversy
where they went from bright orange.
I’m concerned people can’t
see past greys and browns. In a
seaside suburb a bright colour
can really add something,” Mr
Carpenter said.
Bright green will be the base
colour for the building which
will see blue, red and white
added before completion.

Mixed views on second tunnel
• By Annabelle Dick
THE IDEA of creating a second
tunnel between Christchurch
and Lyttelton has a community
board leader happy but
frustrated.
A report showed a second road
tunnel between Christchurch
and Lyttelton will be needed in
about 20 years
due to growth in
freight transport.
Lyttelton-Mt
Herbert Community
Board
chairwoman
Paula Smith said
it was about time
a second tunnel was looked at.
“There’s been a constant
increase in traffic as freight
volume increases and it creates
safety issues for people moving
through the town,” Ms Smith
said.
Lyttelton Port of Christchurch
chief executive Peter Davie said
a “guestimate” from an engineer
had put the cost of a second
tunnel in the region of $500
million and funding it would
probably fall to road control
authorities.
Mr Davie said the logical
thing would be for one tunnel
to serve port traffic, possibly
bypassing Norwich Quay in Lyttelton
and connecting directly to
the port.
“We need it as soon as possible
because for years the Lyttelton
residents have been asking to
get the heavy traffic off Norwich
Quay,” Ms Smith said.
Ms Smith was upset that a
second tunnel is only being
considered now as Sumner Rd is
being reopened to accommodate
freight traffic.
“They’re spending between
$40 and $60 million dollars to
reopen Sumner Rd as a freight
route which will only be used
by a few trucks and about less
than 300 cars a day. We couldn’t
believe it was approved because
it’s so shortsighted – it’s never
going to be a residential route,”
she said.
“Now it’s approved and underway
and they’re going to stuff
the landscape on this side
. . . only now they’re talking
about a freight tunnel? I can’t believe
it. Bring it on, we welcome
it – but why didn’t someone say
this earlier?,” Ms Smith said.
She said the Sumner Rd
reopening will help in the Lyttelton
Port’s reclamation at Te
Awaparahi Bay.
She said the excavation of
material on Sumner Rd will
be added to the extension the
company is doing to facilitate
ROADING NEED: A second tunnel from Christchurch to
Lyttelton will be needed in the next 20 years due to growing
freight going in and out of the port.
increased trade.
“They have managed to get the
ratepayer and taxpayer to underwrite
work that they would’ve
had to have done anyway to
achieve their long-term goal,”
she said.
New Zealand Transport
Agency director southern region
Jim Harland said the tunnel
still had significant capacity to
accommodate further growth in
traffic volumes before a solution
would be needed. Increasing the
use of rail to the port would also
help.
NZTA is expected to install
a deluge system in the tunnel
by the end of next year, involving
sprinklers which could be
activated in response to a vehicle
fire.
YOUR VIEWS
Spreydon resident Michael
J. Brathwaite writes in
response of Lyttelton Port
Company chief executive
Peter Davie’s call for
overpasses on Brougham St
to tackle congestion issues.
Regarding Peter Davie’s
suggestion of overpasses on
Brougham St, I think it is a good
idea as long as it doesn’t become
impossible to turn into it from
at least some of the side streets,
Durham St in particular.
However, when travelling
towards the port, the congestion
starts at the Collins St intersection,
where three lanes merge into
two, and an overpass will not resolve
that problem. Nor will such
ridiculous ideas as banning left
turns into Collins St or lowering
the speed limit there.
I notice the only sensible suggestions
about resolving the
congestion on Brougham St are
coming from people like Mr
Davie.
The traffic engineers have
obviously put it in the too hard
basket, and motorists like myself
are constantly having to protest
against the ludicrous suggestions
put forward by some of our local
body politicians.

SCIRT programme on the home straight
SCIRT’s five year programme of repairs to pipes, roads, bridges and retaining walls is
almost complete and will finish in December.
Most of our repairs involve fixing the city’s underground pipe networks with only small
amount of our work focused on roads.
Our roading work largely involves fixing where we have dug down to repair and replace
the earthquake damaged pipes beneath. The result may look a little patchy but we repair
roads to a reliable and serviceable standard.
The City Council and NZ Transport Agency will continue completing ongoing repairs to the
city's earthquake-damaged roads after SCIRT.

Seattle,
United States, and

in January last year. He
writes this week’s opinion
piece on fluoridation
I love Christchurch water!
It’s one of the many exceptional
things we’d heard about
the Garden City before moving
here.
So I was naturally concerned
to learn about proposed
changes to our water system.
I discovered at an early age
how location could affect
water quality.
When my grand-mother
moved to the Cascade Mountains
near Seattle, she said
that the tap water there had a
”sweetness” to it.
She was absolutely right -
there was a huge difference
between our aquifers in Spokane
and her spring water in
Snoqualmie.
It wasn’t until much later
that I paid any attention to
what is actually in our water.
I’d heard people protest
against fluoridation, but wrote
them off as paranoid conspiracy
theorists.
It wasn’t until becoming a
personal trainer that I actually
questioned the practice.
The research was eye opening.
Our water is being treated
with an industrial waste product
called hydrofluorosilicic
acid.
This chemical is a by-product
of the phosphate fertiliser
industry.
Although classified as hazardous
waste, it is barrelled up
and sold, unrefined, to communities
across the country.
This is the fluoride in public
water.
Former vice president and
senior chemist at the United
States Environmental Protection
Agency headquarters, Dr
William Hirzy, had this to say
about it:
“If this stuff gets out into
the air, it’s a pollutant; if it gets
into the river, it’s a pollutant;
if it gets into the lake, it’s a
pollutant; but if it goes straight
into your drinking water system,
it’s not a pollutant. That’s
amazing.”
Hydrofluorosilicic acid is
far different from the sodium
fluoride, which is not for
ingestion, commonly used in
toothpaste.
This begs the question: Why
would they use this dangerous
form of fluoride? A likely
reason is cost.
Because it costs corporations
many thousands of dollars per
tonne to neutralise and dispose
of it, they instead sell it to
municipalities as a ‘product’.
Chemist and worldrenowned
fluoride researcher
Dr Paul Connett lectured in
Christchurch in July 2016.
He listed 50 human studies
finding that elevated fluoride
exposure is associated with
reduced IQ.
Christchurch has managed
to remain fluoride free for the
last 30 years, but new legislation
may allow for fluoridation
by 2018 unless the public
demands a place at the table in
this decision.
And that’s what is keeping
me up at night.
Do you, like John
Verd, stay awake at
night worried about
fluoridation? Should we
allow fluoridation of our
water? Share your views
with us. Email andrew.

Plenty of tips to living 107 years
She has lived through
two world wars, the
sinking of the Titanic
and Roald Amundsen
reaching the South
Pole – all without ever
leaving the South Island.
Reporter Tom Doudney
tells the story of Gladys
Hanson who recently
turned 107
HISTORY: Some of
the major events that
have occurred over the
course of Mrs Hanson’s
life include Roald
Amundsen reaching the
South Pole, the Titanic
sinking and two world
wars.
THE CASHMERE Rose Court
Retirement Village resident was
born Gladys Geary at Wickliffe
Bay, Portobello, Dunedin,
in 1909, two years before
Amundsen reached the pole,
three years before the Titanic
sank and five years before World
War 1 broke out.
As a young girl, she travelled
to Portobello Primary School by
horse and cart until she was old
enough to ride a horse.
After leaving school at 14, she
worked on the farm, milking
cows and thinning turnips.
She met her future husband,
Jack Hanson at a local dance and
they married in 1933 – a union
which would last 71 years until
Mr Hanson passed away in 2004,
aged 95.
SPECIAL OCCASION: Gladys Hanson received her third card
from the queen when she turned 107 recently.
Mrs Hanson’s daughter, Joyce
Findlay, said she put her mother’s
longevity down to a healthy
diet and lifestyle – Mrs Hanson
has never smoked, always eaten
plenty of fish and fresh vegetables
and has never been on any
long term medication.
“She has just lived a very quiet
lifestyle, she has never been a
social person at all. She was
always a homemaker and never
travelled.”
Her mother’s longest trip had
been when she moved from
Portobello, where Mr Hanson
and his brothers were fishermen,
to Christchurch in 1979.
After her husband’s death, Mrs
Hanson lived on her own, with
help from her daughters, until
she was 102.
A broken hip led to her move
to the retirement village, but she
still gets around using a walking
frame.
Her 104th birthday was
notable for the birth of Britain’s
Prince George on the same day
– something she was thrilled
about.
She received her third birthday
card from the queen this year,
having also received cards for
her 100th and 105th birthdays.
Although Mrs Hanson gave up
knitting a year ago, she still enjoys
Women’s Weekly, television
quiz programmes and chocolate.
She has two children, six
grandchildren and 10 greatgrandchildren.

EQC UPDATE KEEPING YOU INFORMED | AUGUST 2016
The changing shape of EQC
The Earthquake Commission’s work in
Canterbury is entering a new phase as
it settles the final earthquake claims for
the 2010 and 2011 earthquakes, says
EQC Chief Executive, Ian Simpson.
“Over the past few months we’ve been
looking closely at what remains to be
done and we will be carefully matching
the workforce to the work that still needs
completing.
As part of this, EQC has developed a
proposal on how EQC will be organised in
2017 to implement its work in Canterbury,
while continuing its national work.”
EQC began consultation with its staff
this week on a proposed smaller structure
for 2017.
“As we make changes over the next few
months, one thing isn’t changing: we will
retain a presence in Canterbury until we
have met our obligations to our customers.
The proposal is for an organisation with
383 positions from January 2017,” Mr
Simpson said.
The proposals for the new structure impact
the 868 EQC people on fixed term
employment agreements to December
2016 or on contracts for service.
Mr Simpson says the reduction in staff
numbers had been signalled to staff earlier
this year, with more detail given
at EQC staff update sessions in July.
He was grateful for the professionalism
of EQC staff; continuing to achieve key
milestones for Canterbury customers
during a time of change and personal
challenge.
By the end of the year, EQC’s target
is to have:
• completed all of the approximately
67,900 managed home repairs.
• settled all of the approximately 99,000
residential building claims scheduled for
first-time cash settlements.
• settled all of the more than 187,000
contents claims.
• settled green zone land claims for about
73,000 properties.
• resolved 75% of the remedial requests
we had on our books as at 30 June 2016
• cash settled 90% of the 3,118 drainage
claims we had received by 30 June
2016.
• cash settled the 13,985 damage claims
received following the series of quakes
in Canterbury between February and
June 2016.
Mr Simpson says that what remains to be
done in 2017,is to continue resolving
remedial requests on properties where
EQC has managed a repair, and continue
resolving drainage enquiries.
“The level of work left is of a much smaller
scale than the Canterbury Home Repair
Programme was designed for. We need
a smaller, fit-for-purpose approach to finish
the work,” Mr Simpson said.
“By 2017 we will have a new approach for
handling the remaining work, including
remedial requests. We’re working on the
details of this now, including talking to
Fletcher EQR. We hope we will have a
clearer picture around September,”
Mr Simpson said.
As at 31 July 2016:
• there were 238 substantive repairs left,
which we aim to have resolved by the
end of the year.
• there were 335 secondary repairs (such
as garages and chimneys) to do.
There is also a range of administrative and
financial tasks to be completed.
“I know it has not been an easy journey for
some EQC Canterbury customers. We
didn’t get everything right. I’m the first to
admit that. But EQC has worked hard to
learn from its mistakes and improve how
we work not just for Canterbury, but for all
New Zealand,” Mr Simpson said.
Outside of Canterbury, EQC needs to be
ready to respond to any future event and
continues negotiating and managing
natural disaster reinsurance for the country.
EQC will also continue settling the 5,000
to 8,000 natural disaster claims it receives
on average every year, funding research to
a tune of about $16 million annually, and
educating the public about natural hazards
and how to mitigate these.
Remedial requests
EQC has streamlined its process for handling new
remedial requests from customers received from
1 August, 2016.
EQC Chief Executive, Ian Simpson, says the new process
aims for faster resolution with customers having the
opportunity to provide information upfront and state their
preference for a cash settlement or a managed repair
where remedial work is required.
The changes have been introduced after positive
customer feedback on the process used to manage claims
from the February 2016 earthquake, where customers had
the opportunity to submit more information upfront to
enable quicker turnaround.
Many customers going through the February 2016 claims
management process are positive or very positive about
their experience. EQC is now using this approach for new
remedial requests, and customers will be asked to send in
information such as photographs and builders’ quotes.
Although cash settlement will provide a quicker
resolution, it may not suit everyone, Mr Simpson says.
“So if a customer prefers that a contractor do the work,
then EQC will arrange for that to happen. But EQC’s
Community Contact Team and independent customer
advocate groups will be available to support any cashsettled
customers who aren’t confident in sourcing their
own contractors,” he says.
Of the 5,720 open remedial requests, EQC has identified
approximately 1,500 properties that cannot be resolved
through a managed repair before 2017. The new process,
while largely designed for new remedial requests, will be
available to these customers and EQC will be making
contact with them from late August to ask if they prefer a
cash settlement or managed repair during 2017.
Customers wanting to discuss remedial requests can
contact EQC by phone 0800 DAMAGE (326 243) or email
info@eqc.govt.nz
Drainage
As at June 30 2016, EQC had 3,118 drainage damage
enquiries to be resolved. To ensure timely settlement of
these claims, EQC has introduced a panel of licenced
drain layers to identify earthquake damage.
On settlement, customers get a detailed assessment of
the earthquake damage, a documented repair strategy,
and the costing for the repair. EQC expects to resolve

OFFERING THE GOODS: The Tannery complex specialises in food and fashion but owner Alasdair Cassels hopes to introduce an art gallery on-site soon.

No job too big or small
• By Annabelle Dick
THE TANNERY is undergoing
a transformation introducing
a number of new retailers and
services to the complex.
While only $2 million has been
spent on additions, the precinct is
now home to a cinema and more
fashion outlets.
Tannery owner
Alasdair Cassels (right)
said there’s developments
either side of the atrium.
“Alice’s Deluxe Theatre
just opened two months
ago and there’s more
shops down the other
end,” Mr Cassels said.
A high-tech
200 sq m conference
room will open next week
specialising as a multi-function
event room.
Raw Nova will introduce a
menswear shop, Auckland-based
brand Nature Baby will move onto
the premises and Teepee will open a
new branch specialising in soap.
The new stores will take The
Tannery’s business count to 63
with still more work to go at the
complex.
“The south side is still being
developed and we’re talking to
a couple of different parties. I’d
like to see an art gallery there but
that may or may not happen,” Mr
Cassels said.
In spite of its Woolston location
he said being in the suburbs hasn’t
affected his business negatively.
“The south is actually quite a
large part of Christchurch with a
different culture than the rest of the
city,” he said.
The $20 million
boutique-style atrium is
known for fashion, gift
and homeware, design
and hospitality.
Mr Cassels believes
there are many places in
Christchurch that offer
low-quality products but
The Tannery is definitely
not one of them.
“We’re set up to buy
cheap imported goods that fall to
bits, but people like owning quality
products that last forever and that’s
where The Tannery is coming
from,” Mr Cassels said.
“We stand for quality, handmade,
locally sourced products
and I think that’s our strength.
Compared to other centres around
the city we focus on those values
and I think that’s to our advantage.”
Mr Cassels has no plans on
stopping the expansion and would
like to see The Tannery boast more
design and fashion stores in the
near future.

Old league club dumping ground
• By Andrew King
THE HEAD of a sheep
and household waste has
been cleared away from the
back of the former Linwood
rugby league clubrooms in
Phillipstown.
The building, located between
Olliviers Rd and Matheson Rd,
has been empty since the February
22, 2011, earthquake and has
been a dumping ground creating
what residents say, is a health
risk to surrounding properties.
Linwood rugby league spokesman
Mike O’Halloran said he
was disgusted to find the huge
amount of rubbish at the former
clubrooms.
“I organised someone to come
and take the rubbish away,” he
said.
A local YMCA group dragged
most of the rubbish into a big
pile before it was taken away last
week.
While a lot of the rubbish
has been removed a resident
said there was still a lot more
buried in the shrubs and bushes
that surround the back car park
– a badly damaged boat is still
in the middle of the car park
also.
It is that rubbish, he believes,
is attracting rats and mice whose
populations were growing to
“plague-like levels.”
City council principal adviser
of regulatory compliance Fiona
Proudfoot said it is currently investigating
a complaint about the
property from June in relation to
the pest problem.
“The council does investigate
and take action where necessary
in situations where rubbish has
been dumped that may attract or
harbour vermin,” she said.
However, because the property
is in private ownership she said it
is the owners who are responsible
for the property.
Linwood league sold the
property to an investor with the
finalisation of that deal expected
in the next few weeks.

more be done to prevent
further dumping on unused
properties in the city? Share

RED CROSS
Ensuring a safe work place
Learning first aid is not only a part of ensuring a safe
work place, but also an integral part of our engagement with the
wider community. We all learn the necessary skills to ensure that
in times of emergency we are able to assist our work colleagues,
but are we able to take these skills home, into the community or
on to the sports field?
not all work places are the same and the injury risk for each place
can be wide and variable. The office attended by administrators
does not carry the same risk as those people working with heavy
machinery, or perhaps at some distance from a regular ambulance
service. it is therefore essential that you pick the right first aid
course to suit all of your activities – both professional and social.
take, for example, an office worker who does not have a high
risk work environment and whose concern might be to ensure that
they can deal with minor cuts and superficial injuries, or the ability
to perform effective CPr. These skills can be achieved on a course
of eight hours duration and would generally fit into low to medium
risk area. But take this same person on to a sports field either as a
spectator or player when a higher level injury occurs. The eight
hour course covering unit standards 6402 and 6401 (or 26551 and
26552) does not cover head neck and spinal injuries, eye injuries,
hypothermia and poisonings.
The majority of injuries occur outside of the work place, in
fact one in three injuries occurs in the home, making it the most
common place for injuries to happen. new Zealand children
are twice as likely to die through injury as children who live in
australia. They mostly die as a result of motor vehicles accidents
or falls in the home. fatalities from leisure and sport are not far
behind those in the workplace.
The wider 12 hour course teaches the additional unit standard
6400 and provides a wide knowledge base for medium to high risk
environments. This course covers many of the skills required to
deal with the most common injuries, such as falls (which can result
in head, neck and spinal injuries) and dealing with complex scenes
such as motor vehicle accidents.
if you are not sure on the course best suited to your needs, ask
your accredited first aid training provider. They can explain the
course content and give you options that will best suit your needs.
Look beyond the workplace and consider your family and your
location. Check that you have a good quality first aid kit that is
up-to-date with replenished items, and that everyone knows where
it is located.

Caring, gentle dentists
put patients at ease
A beautiful smile makes all the difference when you first
meet someone, whether it is in a business setting or at a
social gathering. That is why choosing the right dentist is an
important decision.
The caring team of experienced dentists team at Smile
Concepts provide painless treatment. Plus, the personal
touch they offer by taking time to go over all your treatment
options and associated costs means those who fear a dental
surgery will be immediately put at ease.
Smile Concepts is proud of its patient service. Their
knowledgeable staff members use safe and proven
procedures, the latest technology, materials and philosophies
to enhance your teeth and smile. They also actively engage
with their customers and take regular feedback. For example,
in recent months, customers complained about earthquakerelated
shaking at the surgery. Taking these complaints
seriously, they have now moved to
their newly renovated premises with
new repelling of the foundations at 104
Colombo Street, Sydenham, where ample
parking is available and the bus stop is
close by.
Smile Concepts welcomes customers from across
Canterbury, and with the variety of services offered as well as
a compassionate, patient-centered approach, it is well worth
driving the extra mile.
They provide dental care services for children and
adolescents with special needs, and sedation dentistry so
patients can undergo treatment without anxiety. General
dentistry services include regular checkups, fillings, crowns,
dentures, root treatment and extractions. With their
emphasis on preventative dentistry, they recommend regular
checkups to eliminate any major problems occurring.
No longer should smiles have gaps where teeth used to
be. Implants, veneers and bridges can be crafted and fitted
so they look natural, are long-lasting and a perfect match.
They also have a dental hygienist, who will help to keep gums
healthy and advise on healthy oral habits.
Some food, drink and medicines can stain our teeth over
time and teeth whitening has become one of the most soughtafter
cosmetic dental procedures today. Smile Concepts offers
the Zoom whitening system, which is currently one of the
most powerful, effective and safest methods available on the
market.
Perhaps the one day in our lives when our smile means
the most is our wedding day. This innovative dental practice
offers wedding packages individually tailored to your needs
to make sure your wedding photographs do you justice. As a
special gift to brides and grooms, Smile Concepts will create a
wedding package at a special price.
Their generosity doesn’t stop with their customers. Smile
Concepts is proud to work with the local community,
supporting initiatives such as Child Safety Awareness
Programmes, the Special Children’s Christmas Party and is a
regular donor to the University of Canterbury Foundation.

HOME & HEATING
Get rid of dampness
in your house
noW WITH the colder and wetter weather on
its way, home owners are focusing on ways to
make their homes comfortable, warm and healthy
for their families throughout winter. rISIng
DAMP is an issue that affects many of our
older properties which suffer from poor, or no,
insulation. In Canterbury especially, post-quake,
many people have relocated to homes that suffer
from rising damp which can be associated with
health problems. Independent tests have shown
that up to 40 litres of water can rise from the
ground and enter a house every day, leading to
mildew, mould, condensation and musty smells.
Moulds can produce various allergic reactions
and the frail, elderly and very young are especially
vulnerable.
Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd is a locally
owned and operated firm. The team understands
the problems caused by rising damp and are
there to help. They will come to your damp home
and pump a lightweight, flowable foam concrete
under your timber floored home. Specially
adapted for our new Zealand conditions and
applications it provides a layer of protection
against rising moisture. An unexpected benefit
that the team at Canterbury Foam Concrete
have noticed recently, is that many owners
of properties which had underfloor foam
concrete installed, reported that it also provided
protection against liquefaction after
the earthquakes.
Contact Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd
now for your free, no obligation quote and
complimentary appraisal of your underfloor
ventilation needs. Phone 03 376 4608 or 0508
362626 for more information.

VenTILATIon
This includes both the exchange of air to the
outside as well as circulation of air within the
building. It is one of the most important factors
for maintaining acceptable indoor air quality in
buildings.
Filtered air supply for summer and filtered
and warmed air in winter creates a healthy
environment in which to live and work. In case
of poor or insufficient air intake from outside,
the oxygen content decreases, humidity and
dustiness levels increase. If exhaust ventilation
is not provided or it is not effective, polluted air,
smells, humidity and harmful substances are not
removed.
Low oxygen with high carbon dioxide causes
stuffiness in the room and occupants can feel
drowsy. Invisible harmful substances like a
high content of dust and tobacco smoke are
harmful and can cause various diseases. even
bad smells can cause discomfort or irritate the
nervous system. In summer, it’s easy to open
windows for cross ventilation, however as winter
approaches, we start to shut up out houses to
trap in the heat and as a result, air quality can
decline.
It is therefore very important to ensure good
air quality indoors through adequate ventilation.

SOUTHERN VIEW
Tackle the skifield road in an Alltrack
• By Ross Kiddie
STAR MEDIA, the company
which I am employed by,
embraces advertising creativity.
We strive for layout and design
which captures reader and viewer
interest. That being the case, I
was mystified when Volkswagen
New Zealand’s recent television
advertising campaign was
withdrawn when some viewers
complained to the Broadcasting
Standards Authority.
The commercial surrounded
Volkswagen’s Passat Alltrack, and
was a light-hearted take involving
a person falling over backwards
on a slippery boat launching
ramp. That ad often had me
smiling when I was preparing
dinner and watching the news. I
was disappointed – world gone
mad – I thought.
That aside, the Alltrack is an
interesting variation on the popular
mid-size wagon and as its
name suggests it has four-wheeldrive
and suspension raised
27mm from the standard Passat.
Volkswagen is no stranger to
this concept, they have long had
models which have just that little
bit extra in terms of ability. The
Alltrack is a cross between an
everyday vehicle and one which
will take you off-road, not so
much in the serious stuff, but it
will get you out of a sticky, low
grip situation, hence the advertisement.
And on that subject, it
also gets a 2.2-tonne tow rating,
so hauling that large boat is a
real probability.
Under the bonnet sits a 2-litre,
turbocharged diesel engine. The
four-cylinder, twin camshaft unit
is rated with 150kW and 400Nm,
the latter punching out its power
all of the way from 1900rpm
to 3300rpm; consequently, it is
a strong, energetic unit which
works through a dual clutch,
direct shift gearbox.
The six-speeder allows the
engine to work freely, between
the two, drive is unimpeded,
the mid-range diesel surge is
evident. Unladen, the Passat
Alltrack will scamper to
100km/h from a standstill in
8sec, and will launch to 120km/h
from 80km/h in 5sec, the turbo
boost offering vivid acceleration.
And that is the beauty with
the big four-cylinder diesels,
there is a lot of grunt on offer,
and it’s no wonder Volkswagen
are confident of high tow
capacity.
Perhaps the most exciting figures
are those of its fuel usage.
Volkswagen claim a 5.2-litre per
100km/h (54mpg) combined
cycle average, that sits well with
VOLKSWAGEN PASSAT ALLTRACK: Grip for slippery surfaces.
the 6.6l/100km (43mpg) figure
showing constantly on the dash
panel readout. At 100km/h the
engine sips fuel at the rate of an
amazing 4l/100km (70mpg) with
the engine turning over slowly at
just 1700rpm.
These results are extraordinary
for a big vehicle and certainly
serve to prove how effective diesel
engine manufacturers have
become in terms of efficiency.
I took the test car on the twists
and turns of the Port Hills. It
was only a few weeks ago that I
evaluated the standard Passat,
and was keen to find out if the
extra ride height affected the
Alltrack’s handling ability. I can
report there’s is little noticeable
difference, grip is well promoted
through Continental sport tyres
(245/45 x 18in), while steerage
and body balance are accurate
and controlled respectively.
Of course the suspension
is fully independent and
there is a lot of travel within
those elements; that being the
case, bumps and ruts are well
absorbed and ride comfort has
been given high priority.
I didn’t take the Alltrack offroad
as such, but I did take it
through a short cross-country
track in an endeavour to get
some photos. The suspension
absorbs the uneven surfaces
beautifully, and wheel-to-ground
contact is manufactured so that
• Price – VW Passat Alltrack,

six-speed automatic.
• Performance –
0-100km/h, 8sec
• Fuel usage – 5.2l/100km
utmost traction is gleaned.
I can see the Alltrack being
used as winter sport recreational
transport such as tackling the
skifield access road. It’s a vehicle
that does all the things a typical
sport utility vehicle is capable of,
yet it is packaged in a more traditional
style.
The entire in-cabin area is
manufactured for comfort and is
decked out with all the features
you’d expect from a $57,990 car.
I’ve long embraced the
traditional station wagon,
especially those from Europe.
The Alltrack takes that concept
one step forward and I’m pleased
that it has such a strong foothold
globally (no pun intended). I’ll
be watching with interest how
well it is received here.

Topic is death
Local musician, Dizzy Height is proud to
announce the completion of his latest
recording, Passing Shadows.
“It's safe to say that this album is very,
very different and deals with a topic not
many are game to talk about let alone record
an album about, and that is the subject of
death,” says Dizzy Height. “Having worked
as an Embalmer/Funeral Director for 9
years I have seen a lot of death. The
inspiration for the album is based on my
many experiences.”
Consisting of nine tracks, the recording is
said to be a very thought provoking and
inspiring CD.
Written, performed, and produced by
Dizzy Height, the tracks feature a unique
blend of classically inspired pieces infused
with traditional rock guitar.
From the opening title track 'Passing
Shadows' to the final track 'After Life' the
album has a positive theme which
encompasses all the things that most people
have thought about at some stage.
