Cemetery 

for quake 

victims 

won’t be 

renamed 

• By Emily O’Connell 

A PUSH to have Avonhead Park 

Cemetery renamed to reflect its 

significance as the final resting 

place of earthquake victims has 

come to a halt. 

The Friends of Avonhead 

Cemetery group has been 

lobbying to have the name 

changed to the Avonhead 

Memorial Cemetery. 

Four people who died in the 

CTV Building collapse and 20 

others who lost their lives in the 

February 22, 2011, earthquake, 

are buried in the cemetery. 

But a city council report has 

found the cemetery can’t be 

renamed. Fendalton-Waimairi- 

Harewood Community Board 

chairman David Cartwright said 

the cemetery doesn’t meet the 

criteria. 

“What would trigger a site or 

location to be named a memorial, 

in this particular case, doesn’t 

trigger that,” he said. 

He said the official memorial for 

earthquake victims is on Oxford 

Tce. 

FOAC chairman Clive Paris 

said the group was not surprised 

at the response from city council 

staff.

FROM 

THE 

EDITOR’S 

DESK 

THE FRIENDS of Avonhead 

Cemetery spokesman Clive Paris 

doesn’t pull any punches (see 

page 1) over the decision not to 

include the name memorial in the 

cemetery’s name. 

The issue is whether to add 

memorial to take into account the 

2011 earthquake victims who are 

interned there has been ongoing 

for a long time. 

But now the city council has 

made a decision that adding the 

name doesn’t meet required criteria 

for cemeteries. 

But Clive isn’t impressed: “They 

(city council) have always had 

a backward looking mentality 

when approaching ideas or issues 

and tend to go into defence mode 

rather than looking at the issue 

and responding positively.” 

Good to see Tongan league 

star Tuimoala Lolohea drop into 

Hornby last week (page 4). 

They’ll need to be at their best to 

beat England this weekend.

Sea level rise could affect insurance 

Local 

News 

Now 

In Brief 

Fire rages, homes at risk 

• By Sarla Donovan 

A SHIFT towards evaluating 

properties for individual climate 

change risk may mean insurance 

premiums will rise on coastal 

properties. 

An updated Tonkin and Taylor 

report on coastal hazards released 

last week showed close to 25,000 

Christchurch houses are at risk of 

future coastal flooding and 1000 

are at risk from coastal erosion. 

In a worst-case climate change 

scenario, flooding could affect the 

coastal city and Banks Peninsula 

properties within the next 50 to 

100 years, the report said. 

Insurance Council chief 

executive Tim Grafton said 

climate change was a certainty. 

“Sea level will rise and the 

frequency of extreme weather 

events will increase.” 

Mr Grafton said each insurer 

would take a different approach to 

risk, depending on the frequency 

and consequences of flooding. 

“With respect to climate 

change, the price signals are likely 

to be incremental changes over 

time, rather than swift and rapid 

change. There is therefore time for 

a range of adaptation measures 

that make economic sense to be 

considered which 

. . . enable the transfer of risk to 

insurance to remain affordable 

and accessible.” 

Some properties could become 

uninsurable if they flooded with 

high frequency, Mr Grafton said. 

“They become less insurable as it 

becomes more certain that they 

will flood.” 

He said New Zealand was 

unusual in offering all-perils 

cover house insurance. “In 

many other countries, flood is 

an optional add-on to house 

insurance policies, so flood risk is 

separately priced.” 

OUTSPOKEN: Christchurch 

Coastal Residents United 

spokesman Darrell Latham 

says climate change is a 

national responsibility. 

PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER 

Redcliffs resident and Ray 

White Ferrymead salesman, 

Mark Roberts, said insurance 

companies will always try to 

mitigate risk. 

“At the end of the day, people 

love being by the ocean. They will 

make decisions (about a property) 

based on the statistics they get 

and the risk profile.” 

Last week’s report is an update 

of Tonkin and Taylor’s widelycriticised 

2015 report suggesting 

18,000 properties were at risk of 

flooding and 6000 susceptible to 

erosion. 

The 2015 report was criticised 

as being scientifically flawed, 

leading to the updated 2017 

version. 

Christchurch Coastal Residents 

United spokesman Darrell 

Latham said climate change was 

a national responsibility, not 

just the responsibility of coastal 

communities or local councils. 

“Mitigation and compensation 

must be part of the conversation,” 

he said. 

NO-STOPPING PLANS 

The Halswell-Hornby- 

Riccarton Community Board 

has decided to create six 

new no-stopping locations. 

The restrictions will be on 

Gallaghan Close, Bibiana St, 

Mustang Ave, Milnebank St, 

Rushden Rise and Middlepark 

Rd and the Craven St 

roundabout. The streets are all 

either narrow or have limited 

visibility. 

. . . AND BUS STOPS 

The community board has 

also decided to approve four 

new bus stops in Wigram. 

They will be located on the No 

100 bus route. The locations 

are Deal St, The Runway, 

Corsair Drive and Keene St. 

BELGIUM GRANT 

A Christchurch Girls’ High 

student is off to Belgium for 

a year with the help of the 

Rotary Club of Avonhead. 

Year 13 student Aoife Hyland 

will take part in the Rotary 

youth exchange. Rotary club 

president John Wanty said 

the it will provide Aoife with 

$1100 towards the exchange. 

She will leave for Belgium on

CELEBRATIONS: Hornby 

Preschool children and staff 

gathered with Lolohea during 

his visit, while Hornby High 

School students played a song 

for him. 

WAVES: Warren Hawke’s new book NZ Surf: The Collection 

– Vol 1 takes an in-depth look at the surfers and identities of 

Scarborough Beach. 

Another Hawke book 

comes to the surface 

•From page 1 

Other local breaks to feature 

include New Brighton, Waikuku 

and a bay on Banks Peninsula. 

Taylors Mistake is also present 

in the introductory section, 

which shows photos from about 

30 years ago. 

The collection has a broad 

coverage of New Zealand surfing 

areas, surfing artists, surf champions 

and breaks. 

“It’s actually quite unique in the 

surfing world as far as surf publications 

go,” said Mr Hawke. 

“We wanted it to seem like 

there was a new adventure over 

every page. For this reason, I’ve 

included the work of some of 

New Zealand’s top surf photographers 

to add greater depth and 

variety.” 

The book has a limited print 

run with the plan being to sell it 

out and not reprint. “We’d like 

to have a new collection out in 

two years’ time, something we’ve 

already started to plan and gather 

new material for,” Mr Hawke 

said. 

WELCOME: Tuimoala Lolohea was all smiles as he met

League star drops in 


TONGA’S rock star-like 

rugby league show dropped 

in on a Hornby pre-school on 

Thursday. 

Star stand-off Tuimoala 

Lolohea was greeted with red, 

white and a lot of smiling faces 

when he arrived at Barnardos 

Hornby Pasifika Early Learning 

Centre. 

The Tongan’s have taken the 

sports world by storm with 

their outstanding displays at 

the Rugby League World Cup, 

which ramped up after the 

upset over the Kiwis 28-22. 

On Saturday, they take on 

England in a semi-final at Mt 

Smart Stadium, Auckland, 

after a hard-fought 24-22 win 

over Lebanon at Christchurch 

Stadium (AMI) last weekend. 

But last week was all about 

spreading the Tongan message. 

Hornby Primary pupils and 

Hornby High School students 

also went along to get a peek at 

the Tonga star. 

Our pre-Christmas exhibition is once again an allwoman 

gathering of multi-media artists. Whimsical 

takes on personal themes, each of these artists 

serve us their ‘Signature Dish’. 

The exhibition runs for three weeks finishing 

18th of December, giving plenty of time to wrap a 

Christmas gift for someone very special. 

Lisa Grennell’s work is whimsical, much like a 

child’s imagination. Designed to make the viewer 

smile and think of their own childhood, 

whilst questioning contemporary society 

and its impact on the environment. ‘The 

Simple Life’ is inspiration for this new 

work. 

Blanche Fryer’s work for this exhibition 

has been inspired by the anthropomorphic 

interpretation of the inner life of fish. 

“We hear of horse whisperers, canine 

communicators, mammal channelling, 

but you never hear of a yarn with a fish, excepting 

if there is a hook on the end. It has been really 

enjoyable creating these characters and also 

playing with a few different glazes.” 

Jane Downes pieces ‘Dwell’, a continuation of her 

body of work ‘Shelter’. Designed almost completely 

for function and the upholding of cultural values, 

offering shelter, protection and observation. These 

works are also an exploration of form, pattern, 

scale and light, extending the work through the 

formation of shadows. 

Kara Burrowes explains her rationale – “I’m drawn 

to the layers and history of the urban environment; 

exposed walls, discarded objects. Often it’s the 

banal and mundane that sparks an idea, the 

concept of transforming something quite ordinary 

into something precious and alluring.” 

Blanche Fryer’s anthropomorphic interpretation 

of the inner life of fish. 

Amy Hoedemakers, “I used sketches from walking 

down the riverbed and words to begin with or 

as reference points. I wanted my work to have 

the feeling of looking into another world, of it 

stretching on, almost as though you could step into 

it but having an abstract quality at the same time. 

Predominantly I’m inspired by the natural world, 

painted in a mixture of sizes and formats in oils.”

Pensioners plead for help 


REST HOME residents are again 

pleading for noisy trucks to be 

banned from Lodestar Ave. 

A Lady Wigram Retirement 

Village resident wrote a letter to 

the Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton 

Community Board which was 

discussed last week. 

The letter was asking for action 

to be taken so they could enjoy 

some “peace 

and quiet.” 

Halswell 

Ward city 

councillor 

Anne 

Galloway 

(left) asked the 

board what 

more they could do to support 

the progress. 

Community board chairman 

Mike Mora said they are supporting 

the progress by receiving 

the letter and referring it to city 

council staff for feedback. 

Cr Galloway said the Lady 

Wigram residents are “very 

upset with how the issue has 

transpired.” 

The Traffic and Parking Bylaw 

2017, which would give the city 

council the ability to restrict 

heavy vehicles on certain roads, 

NOISY: A large container truck on Lodestar Ave, Wigram. 

PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER 

will go to the city council on 

Thursday for approval. 

If the bylaw is approved, the city 

council will then consider placing 

a restriction on Lodestar Ave. 

When asked again this week 

by Southern View whether she 

will push for heavy trucks to 

be stopped, Cr Galloway would 

only say she’s been working with 

Wigram MP Megan Woods and 

city council staff “to address the 

concerns of all the residents who 

are impacted.” 

“I’ve reassured residents 

through emails, phone calls 

and visits that I am taking the 

concerns seriously and will be 

using all tools available to us to 

manage these,” she said. 

Three weeks ago Cr Galloway 

told Southern View she doubted 

the new bylaw will be of any use. 

“It seems that speed is the issue 

and the recommendation is for 

police to get more involved in 

monitoring this,” Cr Galloway 

said. 

But then Cr Galloway 

tempered her stance, sending 

Southern View an email saying 

the bylaw can work. 

“There definitely is still hope 

that it can be used to prevent 

heavy trucks along Lodestar. 

Staff cannot consider it as an 

option until it is passed,” Cr 

Galloway said. 

Last week Cr Galloway said 

she’s thrilled “things are moving 

so quickly” and she hopes the 

bylaw is passed. 

She said the city council’s 

Heavy Vehicle Parking in Residential 

Area Policy is another 

tool which can be used to address 

the Lodestar Ave situation. 

Lady Wigram Retirement 

Village residents said they get 

woken up at 4.30am. 

Retirement village residents 

have been lobbying since April 

when they met with Cr Galloway 

and Dr Woods asking for a bylaw 

to stop trucks being allowed to 

drive through Lodestar Ave. 

It’s a short cut to work sites in 

the area.

Firework ‘could have led to a death’ 

• By Andrew King 

A FIREWORK thrown onto the 

roof of a house caused major 

damage and could have claimed 

lives. 

Fire investigator Bruce Irvine 

is furious about what happened 

and says it is now time for a 

public debate over fireworks. 

The fire 

started in the 

guttering of the 

Becmead Drive, 

Harewood, 

property about 

10.30pm on 

Saturday, 

Bruce 

Irvine 

November 11, and 

spread into the 

wall space. 

The family had just gone to 

bed and were still awake, said Mr 

Irvine. 

About 10min later, the 

kitchen smoke alarm activated 

and the family got out of bed. 

The fire was well involved and 

had been spread by a ventilation 

system in the roof space, he 

said. 

The father went to the 

bathroom and burnt his feet on 

debris that had fallen through 

the ceiling, he said. 

Detectives are investigating. 

Mr Irvine said the fire was 

so reckless that if someone had 

died, he would have expected a 

murder charge to be laid. 

“This family’s lives have 

been destroyed for the next six 

months because of someone’s 

thoughtless and idiotic act. It has 

to stop,” fire risk management 

officer Bruce Irvine said. 

“It was a deliberate act 

that could have led to a 

death.” 

Mr Irvine said it was timely 

to now start the debate on 

fireworks. 

“We want to start the 

conversation right here, right 

now. There have been far too 

many incidents. And we know 

it is going to happen, that is the 

frustrating thing about it. 

These fires are avoidable,” he 

said. 

SILENT: The fire was burning 

for at least 10min in the ceiling 

space before it set off a 

smoke detector in the kitchen. 

He said he wants the public 

to start the discussion about 

whether fireworks should be 

available for general sale or 

should be limited to organised 

events only. 

“Any feedback we get on this 

from the public will be helpful. 

That way we can make a 

strong case for getting rid of 

them,” he said. 

He said it was not just 

the fire, although they were 

“extremely frustrating”, but the 

distress caused to animals and 

surrounding residents with the 

constant firework use well after 

the date they are supposed to be 

set off. 

“They are supposed to 

be used for a celebration on 

November 5, a safe time to use 

them. 

Not weeks and weeks after 

when everything is drying out,” 

he said. 

Cemetery for quake victims will not be renamed 

•From page 1 

“They have always had a 

backwards looking mentality 

when approaching ideas or issues 

and tend to go into defence 

mode, rather than looking at the 

issue and responding positively,” 

he said. 

The four people who lost their 

lives in the CTV Building and 

could not be identified after 

the quake were Shawn Lucas, 

of Christchurch, Elsa Torres 

De Frood, of Peru, Rhea Mae 

Sumalpong, of the Philippines, 

and Veleri Volnov, a 

Russian-born New Zealand 

resident. 

The cemetery features 

a large circular memorial 

with a stone dedication in 

the centre. 

The central feature of 

the memorial includes

In a report to the community 

board, city council senior 

network planner parks 

Eric Banks addressed 

some reasons why 

the proposed name of 

Avonhead Memorial 

Cemetery won’t work. 

He said no 

submissions requesting 

a name change were 

received during the draft 

Cemeteries Master Plan 

consultation process. 

Mr Banks also said there could 

David 

Cartwright 

be more confusion if multiple 

cemeteries had “memorial” in the 

name. 

Mr Paris said the group felt 

the issue had not been resolved 

and it needed to go back to the 

community board. 

“The city now has a legacy 

to provide a safe haven for the 

family members and friends left 

behind here forever,” he said. 

Mr Cartwright said the city 

council report on the renaming 

took a disappointing amount of 

time. 

“What you would think would 

be a relatively straight forward 

request for information . . . has 

taken a little longer than we 

would have hoped for an answer,” 

he said. 

Mr Cartwright said four or 

five new signs will be placed near 

the cemetery to help loved ones 

locate it. 

He also said there will be some 

maintenance done to clean up the 

cemetery.

Governors Bay link with Santa movie 

• By Sarla Donovan 

GOVERNORS BAY film 

director Tony Simpson has just 

finished making the world’s first 

Kiwi family Christmas movie. 

Kiwi Christmas has a special 

screening for friends and family 

at Hollywood Cinema in Sumner 

this Sunday before opening nationwide 

on November 30. 

The movie tells the story of 

how Santa, frustrated by the 

materialism of Christmas, goes 

‘awol’ from the North Pole and 

crash lands at a camp ground 

in New Zealand where he is 

adopted by a camping family. 

Meanwhile, the coast guard 

think an illegal alien has come in 

to the country so they go under 

cover at the camp. 

The family has to save Santa 

from the coast guard and then 

convince him to go back to the 

North Pole and complete his 

duties. 

Co-written with Andy Gunn 

(brother of Jason Gunn) Mr 

Simpson said the idea came 

during one of his own family’s 

Christmas camping trips to Totaranui 

in the Abel Tasman National 

Park, where his children 

wondered if Santa would be able 

to find them at the camp ground. 

Although it is not autobiographical, 

Mr Simpson said the 

film was quintessentially Kiwi, 

unlike most other Christmas 

movies which were set in the 

Northern Hemisphere. 

“Kiwi Christmas is our very 

own family Christmas film,” Mr 

Simpson told the Southern View. 

It has taken four years to make, 

which was a “fairly quick turnaround” 

for a feature film, he said. 

Both Mr Simpson and his editor 

Scott Flyger live in Governors 

Bay, which you might think 

would be a bit far from the filmmaking 

action. 

But he said the first couple of 

years were taken up with getting 

the script written and the finance 

and distribution organised. 

“You can live pretty much 

anywhere because you can do so 

much of that over the internet. I 

was away for about three months 

making the film in Auckland. 

What was good this time was 

that Scott happened to live in the 

Bay and the sound editor Chris 

Sinclair has a studio in Christchurch. 

So I didn’t have to travel to 

do post production. “ 

Most of the cast and crew lived 

in Auckland so filming took 

place just north of Orewa Beach, 

with funding from the New Zealand 

Film Commission. 

Mr Simpson said he wanted to 

make a movie that would appeal 

to families around the world, 

and give kiwis the chance to see 

themselves on the big screen. 

“We’ll finally have something 

personal to watch at Christmas 

time and create a new family 

tradition with something that 

reflects the magic of that time of 

year, Kiwi-style!” 

It’s the second film Mr Simpson 

has made with Mr Gunn. 

The two worked together on 

2012s Kiwi Flyer, inspired by 

the Nelson Trolley Derby which 

was an institution in the Nelson 

community where Mr Simpson 

grew up. 

He shifted to Governors Bay 

with his wife Helen nine years 

ago, just after their third child 

was born. 

“It’s a lovely community and 

I particularly like the dramatic

End the stigma around epilepsy 

November 

is Epilepsy 

Awareness 

Month, 

Coastal- 

Burwood 

Ward city 

councillor 

Glenn Livingstone speaks 

about his experience with 

the condition 

I was first diagnosed with 

epilepsy at 19. 

I’m now 54 and have not let the 

condition hold me back, in fact 

I’ve used it as a springboard to set 

goals and achieve them. 

Leading up to the diagnosis, 

I could not work out why I was 

having uncontrollable twitches 

when falling asleep. 

At a 1983 Youth Easter Camp 

I had a seizure, where I blacked 

out and was taken to hospital 

with concussion and a suspected 

broken nose. 

My worried parents waited 

while an electroencephalogram 

revealed the spikes of the ‘extra’ 

electricity in my brain. 

Following this, I was diagnosed 

with myoclonic epilepsy. I was 

put on medication, which I’ve remained 

on since, in order to keep 

the epilepsy under control. 

One of the consequences of this 

newly-acquired condition was 

not being able to drive for two 

years. 

It also meant cycling with a 

helmet. Cycling wearing a yellow 

helmet in Palmerston North in 

1983 was a novel experience for 

everyone, both me and the locals. 

“Hey skid-lid”, or “moon-head” 

were all part of the experience of 

passing motorists in Palmy. 

Shortly after I was diagnosed 

and told someone about it, they 

said: “Oh, you’re an epileptic.” 

It was that labelling that was to 

become the impetus for me to set 

goals and pursue them. 

In February, I will be taking 

part in my seventh Coast to 

Coast event with MP Poto Williams. 

If you see someone having a 

seizure and lying on the ground, 

ensure that they do not come 

into contact with any furniture 

if inside and that they can’t hurt 

themselves. 

Once the seizure is finished, 

depending on the severity of it, 

check that they’re able to breathe 

without any obstructions in their 

mouth. 

They will probably be able 

to talk to you but may be a bit 

groggy. In some cases they may 

need medical attention but every 

person and every case is different. 

Those of us with epilepsy, our 

family and friends, want to be 

accepted. We should all work to 

put an end to the stigma around 

it. 

Those of us with epilepsy have 

extra electricity in our brains! 

So employ us, be cool with us 

and above all, give us a chance. 

FLAME FILES 

• By Mark Thomas – fire risk 

management officer 

JUST AFTER Guy Fawkes 

weekend, I left town for a week. 

On my return, I found heaps 

of vegetation fires, grass, bushes 

and trees had been attended. 

While that’s a sign of the time 

of year, it’s also disappointing 

to see how many of them were 

the result of fireworks. 

The worst incident occurred 

on November 11 in Harewood, 

where a firework thrown on to 

the roof of a house set the roof 

on fire. 

A smoke alarm alerted the 

occupants but one was still 

burnt while escaping. 

If found, the idiot responsible 

might well face a charge of 

arson. Because recklessness is 

now included in the actions 

that might constitute the crime. 

And you don’t get much more 

reckless than this. 

Going through the week’s fire 

calls, I almost finished without 

seeing a single kitchen cooking 

fire, which is almost unheard 

of. 

Until I got to Wednesday

Celebrate the festive season with 

Thai flavours and a group discount 

The popular Thai restaurant, Green Chilli 

in Ferry Road Woolston, is offering a 10 per 

cent discount for groups of seven or more 

booking in for their Christmas parties in 

the evening. 

The attractive, 55-seat restaurant is 

the ideal venue for festive celebrations 

with workmates, or family and friends. 

The menu features 

a wide selection 

of authentic Thai 

dishes, including 

their famous Pad 

Thai, which is the 

most popular item 

with diners. 

The chicken satay 

with four sticks of 

large, juicy chicken 

pieces is another very 

popular dish, and 

great value at only 

$10. Curry puffs, 

spring rolls and fish 

cakes are among the 

tasty starters, while 

the wide selection of 

main dishes includes green, red and yellow 

curries, massaman curry, spicy chicken 

lemongrass and Thai-style salads. To ensure 

all taste preferences are catered for, the chef 

prepares the dishes in degrees of spiciness 

– mild, medium, Kiwi hot and Thai hot, 

according to what is requested. 

Students and seniors are also offered a 

10 per cent discount, which is available at 

lunchtime and in the evenings. There is 

also a Wednesday special – three courses 

for $22. 

Green Chilli has been a favourite of 

Christchurch’s Thai food lovers for more 

than 20 years. Originally a takeaway 

outlet located in the Woolston shopping 

centre, Green Chilli became a fully-fledged 

restaurant when it moved further along 

Ferry Road almost four years ago. Situated 

at 596 Ferry Rd (next to the Three Boys 

brewery), the family-run business, Green 

Chilli still has the same chef, too. 

Fully licensed, the restaurant is open 

from 11-30am-2pm for lunch and from 

5pm till late for dinner, seven days a week. 

Off-street parking is available and there is 

plenty of on-street parking as well. 

So, make your Christmas party booking 

soon, phone 381 2855 or 384 9993, and 

celebrate the festive season with delicious 

Thai flavours. 

Green Chilli also has takeaways, and 

offers a free delivery service – minimum 

order $45, within the local area. For over 

two kilometres away there is a $5 delivery 

charge. They will be open right through the 

Christmas and New Year holidays, except

Twitter’s quake research role 


Student 

analysing 

emotional 

reactions 

• By Bridget Rutherford 

EARTHQUAKE-related Twitter 

posts are being analysed to 

provide a new way of gauging 

how people are coping, and 

whether they need more support. 

Lincoln University PhD student 

Prerita Gupta is developing 

a recognition algorithm to identify 

emotions based on keywords 

in tweets from 2010-2016. 

So far, she has collected more 

than 250,000 tweets as part of 

the research, which is expected 

to take up to two years. 

The Complex Systems, Big 

Data and Informatics Initiative 

student said people experiencing 

upheavals often turned to social 

media to express their feelings, 

especially Twitter. 

She decided to research how 

people reacted emotionally online 

when earthquakes struck. 

“I thought it would be interesting 

to know which emotions they

have gone through and to know 

the trend of emotions when they 

feel minor or major disasters.” 

The algorithm gauges intense 

reactions from people, and how 

they are coping. An example is 

a tweet such as “Sharp lil jolt felt 

in this morning!!!. Forgot how 

much I hate them.’’ 

Ms Gupta said the tool could 

be used by psychologists as a 

new way of gauging emotional 

states. She said it could be used 

as a decision-making tool to 

understand the collective state of 

a group affected, and to provide 

them better support or assistance. 

The data had geographical 

locations, so they could see what 

area was impacted the most, she 

said. 

“This information is very 

useful for health providers in 

examining the relationship 

between emotions and the use 

of anti-depressant medicines, 

helpful for the Government to 

plan which affected area needs 

the maximum health benefit and 

for social welfare departments to 

understand the level of support 

they should provide to the 

affected party.” 

Ms Gupta said traditional 

approaches such as interviews or 

surveys may not be the best way 

to collect data, as it reminded 

people of the experience and 

could be traumatising. 

Analysing Twitter posts was 

non-intrusive, she said. 

The Ministry of Health is also 

investigating whether Facebook 

or Twitter posts about illnesses 

or symptoms could be tracked 

to see if there is a trend in a 

particular area. 

It was also looking at whether 

school absentees, employee 

sick leave, over-the-counter 

pharmacy sales, tissue sales or 

Healthline calls could be utilised 

in preventing the spread of 

illnesses.

Dilo Oil – The Remarkable 

Skin Rejuvenator 

Until Rachel 

Hunter’s popular 

TV series “TOUR 

OF BEAUTY” Dilo 

Oil was relatively 

unknown, being one 

of the best-kept secrets 

of the Pacific Islands. It 

may however be the number 

one natural beauty oil available 

as it possesses powerful natural skin 

regeneration and healing properties. 

According to ethnobotanist Chris 

Kilham, Dilo (pronounced dee-lo) 

Oil is a powerful skin regenerator as 

it is one of the most effective agents 

in promoting the regeneration and 

formation of new tissue, thereby 

accelerating wound healing and 

the growth of healthy skin. Dilo 

Oil is super-absorbing and can 

penetrate all three layers of the 

skin, offering exceptional cell 

hydration and regeneration. 

As well as this, Dilo Oil has 

potent anti-inflammatory, 

antimicrobial, antifungal and 

antioxidant properties. 

Traditionally, Dilo Oil is used to keep the 

skin young and youthful and for just about 

any skin complaint. Some of the conditions 

for which it is considered helpful include 

abrasions, cuts and cracks, acne and 

acne scars, pimples, blemishes, stretch 

marks, wrinkles, blisters, burns (including 

chemical and radiation), diabetic sores, 

rashes, shaving irritation, dry or scaly skin,

any other skin ailment and often with 

incredible results. 

Many beauty and skincare products 

on the market today contain unnatural 

ingredients that can be toxic and may 

even contribute to disease. Generally 

the benefits are exaggerated 

and often only temporary or 

camouflage. Marshall’s Dilo Oil is 

100% pure and certified organic. 

It has been cold-pressed from the 

Dilo nut and contains absolutely 

no additives. Polynesians and 

Southeast Asians have revered 

Dilo Oil for centuries believing it 

to be a sacred gift of nature and 

the Gods. Dilo oil stimulates 

and supports the skins natural 

healing process through the growth of new 

healthy skin tissue. I personally believe 

it is a remarkable product and highly 

recommend it to everyone. A 50ml bottle is 

$19.90 and 100ml only $29.90. 

Further information is available from 

the Natural Health Advisers at Marshall’s 

Health & Natural Therapy in New 

Brighton. We are Always Happy to Help! 

NATURAL HEALING & BEAUTY OIL 

As seen on Rachel Hunter’s Tour of Beauty 

Revered for centuries by Polynesians & Southeast Asians for its remarkable 

skin anti-aging & healing properties, Dilo oil comes from the nut of the sacred 

Dilo tree, “the tree of a thousand virtues”. Dilo oil is often called the beauty oil 

as it can penetrate all three layers of the skin offering exceptional cell hydration 

& regeneration. It has a unique ability to stimulate the growth of healthy skin 

cells & this gives it powerful anti-aging & healing properties that can help 

reduce lines, blemishes, scars & damage to the skin. It also possesses

Centuries old folk remedy 

supports good health! 

A fermented liquid health tonic offers an 

array of powerful health benefits. It is none 

other than the popular apple cider vinegar 

or ACV. Since the time of Hippocrates – 

the “Father of Medicine” – ACV has been 

renowned for its curative properties. 

In his popular book “ARTHRITIS and 

FOLK MEDICINE”, DR. D.C. Jarvis 

reports how he found that Vermonters 

who regularly consumed ACV and Honey 

had excellent health with many putting in 

a vigorous day’s work on the farm even 

when well into their eighties. 

He also noted the effects of 

ACV and H on arthritis to be 

remarkable with many patients 

reporting almost total relief 

after taking a course of the 

mixture. Dr. Jarvis surmised 

that the acid and potassium 

in cider vinegar counteracted 

calcium deposits and helped 

the body control calcium use. 

He also noted that Vermonters 

who consumed ACV and H 

around meal time had excellent blood 

pressure and circulation. The reason he 

found was that protein foods thickened the 

blood and vinegar thinned it. As the blood 

thickens it cannot pass as easily and quickly 

through the blood vessels and capillaries. 

This poor blood flow would reduce cellular 

health by limiting nutrients to the cells as 

well as waste elimination from the cells. 

To prevent cell damage the body naturally 

increases blood pressure but this puts 

more stress on the blood vessels, organs 

ARE YOU READY 

TO DOWNSIZE? 

Paying rates for a house that’s 

too big? Paying maintenance and 

heating costs for space you don’t use? 

A move to one of our 

architecturally designed villas 

at McKenzie Lifestyle Village in 

Geraldine will cut those costs. 

Three villas are available for 

occupation now, priced from 

$355,000.

and heart. Having ACV and H with meals 

will help prevent protein raising the blood 

pressure. It also contributes to a feeling 

of greater well-being because the thinner 

blood circulates quickly and more easily 

through the blood vessels. Dr. Jarvis found 

regular consumption of CV and H to be 

an excellent health tonic with numerous 

health attributes. 

ACV is highly nutritious as it contains all 

the goodness of the apple in a form that is 

readily accepted by the body. Good health 

starts with good digestion 

and assimilation of nutrients. 

ACV taken before food will 

stimulate and promote healthy 

digestion and assimilation of 

vital nutrients for good health. 

A well-functioning digestive 

system helps prevent disease 

by neutralising any toxic 

substances that enter the body. 

It is important to note not 

all ACV is produced in the 

traditional way and results are 

likely to prove disappointing with these 

other vinegars. 

Marshall’s Premium ACV and ACV 

with 20% Manuka Honey is produced in 

Canterbury from Organic whole apples in 

the traditional way. It is double strength so 

you can use less.

While the Nurse Maude Hospice Shops are 

a well-known feature on the Christchurch 

retail scene, no quite so well-known is its 

equally successful counterpart, Maudes on 

Trade Me. 

Maudes on Trade Me sells everything 

from antiques to sporting and household 

items and is open 24 hours a day, seven 

days a week with the proceeds of every 

item supporting hours of care in the Nurse 

Maude Hospice. 

With up to 400 items a week being listed 

and sold Maudes on Trade Me is totally 

dependent on a steady stream of donated 

goods. 

So if it’s something you no longer want or 

need the chances are it can raise money 

for the Nurse Maude Hospice. 

There has always been a strong 

relationship between the 

community and the Nurse 

Maude Hospice. 

That relationship is what makes 

it possible for patients and their 

families to be able to receive 

care and support free of charge 

at the Nurse Maude Hospice so 

they can focus on what matters 

rather than having to worry 

about how they’re going to pay 

for that care. 

While smaller pieces can be 

left for Maudes on Trade Me 

at any of the Nurse Maude Hospice Shops 

it is sometimes possible for larger or bulk 

items to be picked up. 

Just give them a call on 375 4643 or 

email them at trademe.volunteers@ 

nursemaude.org.nz and they can let you 

know if and when they can pick them up.

Love your dentures 

Is it time to swap your generic denture appearance 

for a beautiful, natural looking smile? 

Internationally renowned dental 

technician Richard Greenlees, 

PGDipCDTech (University of Otago) of 

Lovebite is the person to call. 

His special point of difference is 

rebuilding what he calls the Oral 

Architecture, the structure and shape of 

a patient’s face that is often lost following 

years of wearing dentures. 

Lovebite dentures address problems 

that can arise due to years of the patient 

wearing incorrectly fitting or poorly 

functioning dentures, such as poor 

occlusion (the way the teeth come 

together), aesthetics, function and 

hygiene. 

An intricate knowledge and 

understanding of facial features allows 

Richard to return facial tissues back to the 

correct position, reform lips, and restore 

beauty and confidence. 

Richard provides a friendly, discreet 

service and personally guides his patients 

through the transformation process to 

create teeth with small nuances in the 

fabrication, colour and shape. 

Carmen, a recent patient said in a 

thank you letter to Richard, “I highly 

recommend your craftsmanship to anyone 

wanting a natural looking smile. Because 

you do your work in front of your client, 

one is able to see how meticulous and 

dedicated you are to ending up with a top 

class result. My dentures are amazing. 

They look like one’s own natural teeth. So 

much time, effort and energy went into 

the end result. Simply the best.” 

Richard’s patients have varying needs, 

from full denture replacement, to first 

time immediate dentures, implant 

supported dentures and metal partial 

dentures. 

Since he started making teeth in 

1980 Richard has travelled extensively, 

accumulating vast knowledge through 

training and working in Japan, and 

running his own practice in the 

prestigious Harley Street, London for 15 

years. He continues to teach his world 

leading techniques globally. 

Richard also creates porcelain crowns 

and veneers, working with like-minded 

dental professionals. 

A beautiful new Lovebite smile 

resembles nature and reflects the patient’s 

character. It boosts confidence and helps 

patients to look and feel years younger.

These before and after photographs 

perfectly highlight the facial

These stunning lovebite full upper and

internationally-recognised dental technician 

Richard Greenlees at his Christchurch studio. 

The combination of Richard’s skill, experience 

(including 15 years in London’s prestigious 

Harley Street) knowledge and revolutionary 

techniques allow him to create beautiful 

bespoke false teeth that truly resemble those 

in nature and reflect each patient’s individuality

GREAT food 

BROUGHT TO YOU BY... 

Your fresh food people 

STRAWBERRY AND 

MARSHMALLOW PARFAIT 

Ingredients 

½ cup Marshmallows, small 

350g Sugar 

500g Strawberries, hulled 

6 Eggs, 4 yolks, 2 whole 

2 cups Cream, thick 

500g Strawberries, fresh, for 

garnish 

Directions 

To prepare the tin, line a narrow 

terrine mould about 30cm 

x 10cm with plastic wrap. Set 

some of the marshmallows along 

the bottom with some strawberry 

slices. 

Place the strawberries in a 

saucepan with half the sugar. 

Bring to a gentle simmer over a 

low heat. The juices will come 

out, so there is no need to add 

water. Simmer for no more 

than 2min, then remove from 

the heat and mash or purée the 

mixture. 

Return it to the pan and set 

aside. Use an electric beater to 

whisk the egg yolks and whole 

eggs with the remaining sugar 

until thick and mousse-like. 

Return the strawberry and sugar 

mixture to the heat and bring to 

a simmer. With the beater still 

running, tip this hot mixture 

into the eggs and continue 

whisking until it is really thick 

and well incorporated. The hot 

sugar and strawberries “cook” 

the egg yolk, so it is not raw. 

Whip the cream until it reaches 

soft peaks, then fold it gently 

through. Add the remaining 

marshmallows to the mixture. 

Spoon it into the prepared tin. 

Cover with plastic wrap and 

freeze for at least 24 hours. To 

serve, cut the parfait into slices, 

surround with sliced strawberries 

and place in a cup. 

HOW TO ROAST THE 

PERFECT WHOLE LEG OF 

LAMB 

Whole leg of lamb 

1-2 tbsp oil 

Rock salt 

Freshly ground black pepper 

4-5 sprigs fresh rosemary 

Take the lamb out of the fridge 

30min before cooking to allow 

it to come to room temperature. 

Preheat the oven to 170 deg C. 

Place a wire rack in a roasting 

tray, place the lamb on the rack 

and brush the meat with the oil 

and then season with the rock 

salt and freshly ground black 

pepper. 

Rub the lamb with the rosemary 

sprigs leaving them in the 

roasting dish. Place the meat into 

the oven and roast at 160 deg C, 

allowing 30min per 500g. 

To test if the meat is cooked, 

use a skewer to pierce the leg at 

the thickest part, going through 

to the bone. If the juices are clear, 

the lamb is cooked. 

Remove the lamb from the 

oven, cover the meat with some 

aluminum foil and then set the 

lamb aside to rest, for approximately 

15-20min. Carve the meat 

and serve with your favourite 

vegetables and plenty of gravy.

Occupying a setting of tranquility, this 

cleverly designed townhouse on a Freehold 

Title, offers contemporary living without 

compromise. With an outlook over Glen

living and dining room flows to outdoor 

living on two sides: the internal courtyard, 

a wonderfully sheltered and intimate space 

for relaxing and entertaining throughout 

the day and into the evening, and a sundrenched 

terrace that invites you to enjoy 

the leafy surrounds. Adjoining the living 

space, a well-appointed kitchen includes an 

island bench, pantry, ceramic cooktop and 

90 cm entertainer’s oven. Sleek engineered 

stone benches and boxed ceilings add a 

touch of understated elegance.

sanctuary, with sliders opening to your 

own private balcony - and those sensational 

views - plus a WIR and chic tiled en suite. 

Two more airy and inviting bedrooms 

(one double, one single) both have built-in 

wardrobes and share a tiled family bathroom 

filled with light thanks to two rain-sensing 

skylights. A downstairs powder room 

caters to guests, while a separate laundry 

and double internal-access garage ensure 

the practicality of this very special home. 

The 331 sqm grounds are fully fenced and

minimum of maintenance. A gate offers 

direct access to the reserve and walking 

trails beyond. 

The owners have committed to building 

in the country and must sell their muchloved 

home, allowing you the opportunity 

to secure an exceptional standard of living 

in an inspiring location.
