Bid to keep cost secret Probe into
• By Gabrielle Stuart
CHRISTCHURCH ART Gallery
director Jenny Harper says the
cost of public art should be kept
from ratepayers.
Her stance comes after it
was revealed the two Gormley
sculptures cost just over $1
million, far more than had been
originally thought.
Figures released to The Star
under the Official Information Act
show the cost of the sculptures was
initially estimated
at $525,000 but
blew out, partly
because the falling
New Zealand dollar
added $91,000
to the purchase
price.
Ratepayers
paid just over
Jenny Harper
$500,000 toward
the sculptures,
the Canterbury Earthquake
Recovery Authority, $338,000,
and about $160,000 in extra costs
like transport, legal fees and
installation was paid for through
sponsorship.
“I don’t think it’s right to be talking
about the cost of these things,”
Ms Harper said.
She is a member of the city
council’s Public Art Advisory
Group, which chose to buy the
sculptures and decides how the
city’s budget for public art should
be spent.
The cost of artwork should not
be revealed, even if public money
went into it, because the environment
in Christchurch after the
earthquakes was so sensitive, she
said.
The documents also revealed
that Mayor Lianne Dalziel and
city councillors were not told
about the total cost of the
Gormley statues.

‘unsafe’
buildings
ramps up
Inspections under way
• By Tom Doudney
SITE INSPECTIONS on two
of five Christchurch buildings
under investigation into claims
of substandard and dangerous
structural engineering practices
were carried out yesterday.
The man who made the
allegations in a sworn
affidavit visited a school
and a commercial
premises with city
council staff to point
out work he said was
not up to standard.
But the city council
yesterday refused to say
what they had found.
The general manager
consenting and compliance
Leonie Rae said she
was unable to comment as it was
part of the ongoing investigation
Asked by The Star, as a result
of what they had seen, would it
warrant further investigation,
she said: “We’re unable to comment
on this at the moment as it
is part of an ongoing investigation.”
The allegations relate to work
an unqualified welder says he
carried out or witnessed during
the last two years while working
for a structural engineering
company. The other three buildings
identified include two multi-storey
commercial premises
and a multi-storey apartment
building. Some of the buildings
are now occupied.
Ms Rae said the
managing director of the
company at the centre of
the allegations would be
interviewed “at the appropriate
time” during
the investigation.
“Currently the priority
of our investigation
Leonie Rae is to ensure that the
buildings are safe to
be occupied and our focus is
on investigating the allegations
made by the complainant,” Ms
Rae said.
While an independent engineer
would not be engaged at
this stage, that decision would be
reassessed later in the investigation.

NO DOUBT I’ll be regarded as
a philistine, but the public has
every right to know how much
they are paying for the city’s art
works.
It has been revealed the Gormleys
cost just over $1 million (see
page 1), but the disturbing aspect
to it is that Mayor Lianne Dalziel
and city councillors were left out
of the loop.
Art gallery boss Jenny Harper
is out of touch if she thinks the
cost of public art should be kept
from ratepayers. After all, they
are contributing to it.
If that means debate and criticism
for those decisions in the
media, then so be it. That’s what
democracy is all about.
The true test will come for
Dalziel. She is one of 17 publicly
elected councillors, but she is the
chief and her voice is the loudest.
As to whether the Gormleys
are worth just over $1 million;
that is for the public to decide.
I couldn’t possibly comment.
Also today, we reveal the latest
in the developing saga about the
council probe into claims of unsafe
work done on five buildings
in the city.

THIS WEEK IN CANTERBURY’S PAST
This week in history saw night cycle races held at Lancaster
Park. The experiment on November 4, 1876, was not a success
because the gas illumination was completely inadequate.
Speaking of Lancaster Park, on the same date in 1989, a
record crowd of 60,000 went to the facility to see Irish rock
band U2. On November 6, 1830, Te Rauparaha’s war party
massacred the inhabitants of Akaroa and returned to Kapiti
Island. On the same date in 1852, the first Canterbury sitting
of the Supreme Court was held in Lyttelton. Addington
Raceway held its inaugural meeting on November 6, 1899,
and that date in 1918 marked the beginning of the
influenza epidemic, which eventually killed 466 people in
Christchurch.
TROUSER-DROPPING PRANKSTER
It appears a prankster is lurking in
Westfield Riccarton’s car park. The
man, who appears to be in his late
20s, taps on the driver’s window of
vehicles claiming they have run over
his foot as they were reversing out of
their car park. In some cases, he then
says his hip was hit by the vehicle, and
pulls down his pants to reveal his frilly
underwear. The Star has been told it has
happened at least five times to separate
drivers, although mall management
were unaware of it.

Emett restaurant for city
MICHELIN-STAR chef Josh
Emett has confirmed his
acclaimed restaurant Madam
Woo will open in Christchurch
early next year.
The MasterChef New Zealand
judge and his business partner
Fleur Caulton announced
on Monday the restaurant
would open in the $50
million McKenzie and Willis
development on High St in
February.
The Christchurch restaurant
will be the fifth location, with
eateries already in Auckland,
Dunedin, Hamilton and
Queenstown, where the original
Madam Woo opened in 2013.
“We are really excited to bring
Madam Woo to Christchurch,”
Ms Caulton said.
“Josh and I have been searching
for the right location in
Christchurch and believe that
we have finally found it, making
it the right time for us to have

Government
MAYOR LIANNE Dalziel has
offered to take social housing
off the Government.
At yesterday’s council
meeting she took a swipe at the
Government’s management of
social housing. She said it was
destroying families.
Ms Dalziel said the policy
was damaging to communities
like Aranui.
“The Ministry of Social
Development is destroying the
very essence of what makes
that community work,” she
said during a discussion on
the council’s new housing
policy.

In his affidavit, the former
employee said he was concerned
the substandard work which
he knew about could cause a
CTV building-type disaster. He
stated that, as an unqualified
welder, often unsupervised,
he was directed to take short
cuts which deviated from
the buildings’ specifications
and would compromise the
engineering.
Issues he raised included
welding K brace connection
brackets one side only,
gas-cutting reinforced steel
while drilling through
concrete plates, chemical
anchor bolts not drilled to

unsupervised welding on

to reduce the impact of an

“substandard” work.
The managing director of
the company implicated is
currently before the courts
on unrelated serious criminal
charges.
The Star can reveal he
allegedly attempted to drive a
vehicle into a woman. He has
been charged with dangerous
driving and assault with a blunt
instrument. He has pleaded not
guilty to both charges.
He is due to appear in the
district court later this month
for a case review hearing.

Unsafe building investigation
‘Currently the priority of our
investigation is to ensure that
the buildings are safe.’
Ms Rae said the city
council’s inspection procedures
in regards to giving the green
light to building work were
robust and met industry
standards.
“Approved building consent
documentation will include a
building inspection schedule
that identifies the different types
of inspections which need to
be completed at various stages
of the build. This includes a
final inspection to be done by a
council inspector,” she said.
“A code compliance certificate
will not be issued without a
passed final inspection.”
In addition, the city
council also relied on third
party verification, such as
construction monitoring,
provided by the building’s
design engineer.
In Brief
CHARGER CAUSES FIRE
An overheating cellphone charger
caused extensive smoke damage
throughout a technology business
in Middleton. A fire investigator
said the fire was contained to a
corner of the Salcom building on
Magdala Pl on September 19, but
smoke had done damage to stock.
Salcom is a technology company
which provides communication
products for the fire service and
a number of other emergency
services.
PANEL REPRESENTATIVES
THree panels made up
of representatives of the
construction and design
industries will be set up to take
over from Stronger Christchurch
Infrastructure Rebuild Team.
The city council will set up the
design-build, construction and
design panels under its new
hybrid delivery model. While
there was no guarantee of work
being awarded to any panellist,
their involvement in the process
would allow for forward-planning
of work and resourcing that
improved the contract process.
ASSETS LIKELY FOR SALE
Stronger Christchurch
Infrastructure Rebuild Team is
looking at selling the small assets
it has acquired before it winds
up at the end of December. A
spokeswoman said items such
as computers, desks and office
equipment that had been used for
the five years SCIRT has operated
could be sold through auction.
INTEREST IN LAND
“Various parties” are interested
in developing a piece of central
city land originally earmarked for
a $30 million urban village. The
land on the corner of Madras and
Gloucester Sts was meant to be the
site of the Breathe Urban Village,
but it was scrapped last year.
“There has been interest expressed
in the residential demonstrator site
by various parties, but until such
time as a transaction is concluded,
we will not be commenting on
any discussions,” an Otakaro
spokesman said.

Former city council
culture, leisure and parks
general manager Michael
Aitken was given the information
about the costs, but
removed that detail from
the documents before they
were given to Ms Dalziel or
city councillors.
He has since left the job
to move to a management
position at the New Zealand
Transport Agency.
He refused to comment
on what had happened, or
say whether he had deliberately
withheld the information
from Ms Dalziel and
councillors, when questioned
by The Star this week.
Ms Dalziel has now asked
for a review of all city council
public art expenditure.
She had not spoken
to Mr Aitken about how
the information was
handled.
Ms Dalziel said she did
not expect to see the total
price at the time, because
the decision about the purchase
was delegated to the
advisory group.
But the public should be
told the cost of major public
artwork, she said.
The city council has put
aside $280,000 each year in
the public art fund, which
the advisory group then
decides where to spend.
The city council will need
to decide during the annual
plan process next year if it
wants to continue putting
money into the fund,
and she said that would be
opened for public debate
after the review.
Ms Harper compared
the public reaction to the
Gormley sculptures with
that to Michael Parekowhai’s
“Chapman’s Homer”
sculpture of a bull on a
grand piano.
BULL: The
cost of
Chapman’s
Homer
has been
revealed at
more than
$1 million.
She revealed yesterday
the cost of the bull sculpture
was more than $1
million, of which ratepayers
contributed $300,000.
It is currently sited outside
the art gallery.
There had been no public
outcry because the cost
of the sculpture had been
kept under wraps.
“I think it would be really
good if people focused
on the long-term value
of having public art. You
look at the difference that
public art has made in Wellington.
Some things have
been liked and some have
been laughed at, but they
have made the city a richer
place,” she said.

art spending sparks debate
Ms Harper raised concerns
about the political environment in
a meeting of the advisory group
in February, according to minutes
of the meeting released under the
Official Information Act.
“There were multiple priorities
within council at this time and
many councillors found art problematic,”
she said.
But advisory group chairman
and Canterbury Museum director
Anthony Wright said the price of
the Gormley sculptures was kept
under wraps not to avoid debate,
but at the request of the artist who
had sold the painting to them at a
discounted rate.
“Obviously we want philanthropists
and donors to continue
to support public art projects, so
respecting their wishes is pretty
important in maintaining good
relationships.”
Former city councillor Paul
Lonsdale, who was the city
Bob Parker Anthony Wright Garry Moore
council’s representative on
the advisory group, said city
councillors trusted the group to
make decisions, and did not need
to know the details.
He said the group was able to
gather funding the city council
could not, so it could often match
every dollar of public money it
spent with three from donations or
sponsorship.
“I understand it (the public
backlash), people have got broken
homes and streets that haven’t been
fixed. But this hasn’t affected any of
that work. Public art is an investment,”
he said.
City councillors said yesterday
they disagreed with Mr Lonsdale
and were concerned information
was kept from them. Cr Yani Johanson
said he supported setting
aside money for art, but the city
council needed to review how that
fund was being spent.
“I think art is important in a
city, but do you want to employ 20
local artists instead to go out and
commission art in local areas, or
something like that?”
Former mayor Bob Parker
agreed the city councillors should
have more oversight, because he
said if it went wrong the council
would get the criticism.
“I guess the bottom line, really, is
if it’s public money contributed by
ratepayers, ratepayers have a right
to know and have a say on whether
it is a good idea,” he said.
But fellow former mayor Garry
Moore said he thought delegating
the decision was the right move,
although he said he wanted to see
more diversity in the group making
decisions.
“The last people you want to
choose an art project are the
elected representatives. There are
sometimes people around the table
with an appreciation for public art,
but they are very few,” he said.

Council firms up anti-oil stance
• By Bridget Rutherford
NOT HERE.
That’s the message the city
council will send to the Government
in its submission on the
proposed deep sea oil exploration
off the coast of Banks
Peninsula.
City councillors were to
approve their submission yesterday,
but decided to “strengthen”
it before it was finalised to send
a strong message that they
were implacably opposed to the
proposal.
All city councillors, but Cr
David East, voted in favour of
revisiting the submission with
Crs Sara Templeton, Tim Scandrett,
Vicki Buck and Pauline
Cotter to approve it.
They also voted to ask Ngai
Tahu and Environment Canterbury
to make submissions.
The block offer is a competitive
tender process, run by
New Zealand Petroleum and
Minerals, which encourages
companies to bid for exploration
permits.
The latest offer would open
a 210,884 sq km area of ocean
below Banks Peninsula for commercial
oil and gas exploration
tenders next year.
ON THE LINE: The Great-South/
Canterbury Basins block the Government
is considering opening up for oil and gas
companies to prospect.
It sits next to a marine sanctuary.
Cr East said the chances of an
oil spill were very slim.
But Cr Buck said the proposal
was “environmental
and economic
lunacy.”
She said the
country’s three
main sources
of income were
agriculture, horticulture
and tourism.
They relied
on the country’s
clean, green image,
which this
could jeopardise,
she said.
“The risks are
just too revolting
to even contemplate.”
If there was an
oil spill, the closest
equipment to
deal with it was in
Singapore, which
was a concern for
councillors.
Siana Fitzjohn,
of Oil Free
Otautahi, made a
deputation urging
city councillors to
be the voice of “moral reason”
because the public could not
have its say on the proposal.
“We’ve experienced the

we really want to invite the
trauma of losing our marine
eco-systems? Because I can tell
you it won’t be the oil executives
or the National MPs that will be
clearing oil and dead dolphins
off the beach.”
However, in response, resident
Brian Johnston said in his deputation
that they were “rantings
of a mad religion” and Canterbury
needed the money.
Cr East also said: “I’m not at
all supportive of political parties
and activist groups using
the city council as a platform
for promoting a political view
point.”
But Cr Yani Johanson said the
proposal was “morally wrong.”
Cr Glenn Livingstone agreed.
“In rugby league terms, when
you hit back, they call it the
big don’t argue, and I think we
should hit back today.”

New freedom
camping
restrictions
• By Bridget Rutherford
FREEDOM CAMPING will be
banned across the city for vehicles
without toilets in them, and
completely in five problem areas.
The city council decided yesterday
to amend its Freedom Camping
Bylaw 11 months after it was adopted
due to reports of overcrowding and
health and safety concerns.
The changes will see freedom
camping banned across the city and
Banks Peninsula for vehicles without
on-board wastewater facilities. All
freedom camping will be banned at
Addington Park, Windsport Park,
Lower Styx River Mouth, French
Farm and Wainui.
Freedom camping was originally
allowed in those five areas. However,
city council chief executive Karleen
Edwards was forced to temporarily

French Farm was immediately closed

from overflowing septic tanks.
As part of the bylaw review, the
city council spent $19,435 on a report

The changes will come into effect
on December 1, while a full review

Looking for the next IT genius

From next year, all pupils from
the pre-school to year 8 will be
taught mechatronics.
It brings together science,
technology, engineering,
mathematics and a bit of art to
teach pupils the basics of how
robotic devices operate.
Mr Zuckerberg invented
Facebook in 2004 from his

Year 7 pupil Emma Cawood
has really taken to the

huge opportunity for her.
“It allows me to be creative
because there is really no limit
to what we can do. It has helped
me with more knowledge
in math and is really fun,” she
said.
Robotic and coding teacher
Liz Fairhall said there is a
massive need for women in
information technology and this
would provide a great pathway.
“It really is going to push these
girls into seeing that IT is an

said.

‘Foot to the floor and just drive’
A teenager led police on a
dangerous car chase last
week. He talks candidly to
reporter Andrew King
THE BLUE Honda Civic was
parked on a street in South New
Brighton, there for the taking.
So 15-year-old John*, did what
he says he has done many times
before. He broke into it and stole
it.
He and his three mates blasted
out to Bromley and then back to
South New Brighton, where they
were eventually caught, via North
New Brighton and New Brighton.
They were smoking cannabis
and having a good time.
It was not long before they attracted
the attention of the police.
“When I saw the cops in the
rear view mirror I just put my put
to the floor and took off,” John
told The Star this week.
Several police vehicles joined in
the pursuit and tried to stop the
Honda. Spikes were deployed but
were ineffective.
John was not going to stop.
“Every time they tried to stop
me [police] I would drive up on
the footpath to avoid them. There
was a bit of traffic that night, but

didn’t crash into anything,” he
said.
A police spokeswoman said
they wanted to end the pursuit
quickly because of the way the
vehicle was being driven on suburban
streets.
The pursuit last about half an
hour, according to John.
John said he was not concerned
about the road in front of him,
his focus was firmly in the rear
view mirror.
“I was too stoned to think

about other people on the road
and when you have the police behind
you, you don’t really think
about anything, you just put your
foot to the floor and just drive,”
he said.
They eventually stopped on Beatty
St, South New Brighton, when
the Honda ran out of petrol.
“If I had a full gas tank, I would
have been gone,” he said.
Police surrounded the vehicle
and pulled the teenagers out and
put them in a paddy wagon.
John said it was just part of being
a teenager.
“You know that feeling that
some teenagers get these days like
“f**k the world” yeah, that’s what
it was like,” he said.
A resident on Palmers Rd,
North New Brighton, filmed the
pursuit and said he couldn’t believe
people could endanger the
public they way they did.
“I think it’s stupid, dangerous
and pathetic. But to be honest,
kids will be kids, but obviously
their parents haven’t taught them
that stealing is scum, and stuff
like this is nothing to be proud
of,” he said.
All four involved in the chase
have appeared in Youth Court.
One was remanded in custody
to appear next week, the other
three, including John, were remanded
on bail to appear later in
the month.
John has been given a 24-hour
curfew but said the rules have
done little to deter him in the
past and he cannot see that
changing.
“If the boys have a car, I am
going to go out with them. We all
do similar stuff it is just us hanging
out really,” he said.
*John is not his real name. For
legal reasons he cannot be
identified.

Don’t judge a
From the
courtroom
to the
classroom
• By Bridget Rutherford
IT IS Judge Rob Murfitt’s
job to try and see the
world through the eyes of
children.
He has been a judge for
more than 10 years, mostly
working in the Family
Court.
Before that, he
represented children in
family disputes.
Now the Christchurch
man has written a
children’s book.
Claire and the Weka,
written by Robbie James
– Judge Murfitt’s given
names – is about a young
girl who gets her favourite
teddy stolen by a weka.
She enlists the help of a
boy to get it back.
Judge Murfitt said the

book, which is illustrated
by Sunset, was a true story
about his daughter, Claire,
from a family holiday in
the Marlborough Sounds
about 30 years ago.
“There’s little lessons
about helping other people
and being grateful.”
He said it was inspired
by his granddaughter Eva,
who loved hearing it so
much, he thought others
might too.

book by its cover
Judge Murfitt said writing the
book helped him with his day
job.
“In a sense, it helps to keep
you able to see the world
through children’s eyes,” he
said.
“When we’re dealing with
disputes about parenting, the
law says that we have to look at
the welfare of the children as
the total lens.
“It’s the child’s rights, it’s the
child’s needs that come first and
so I suppose in the daily routine
of dealing with disputes, you do
get used to doing that.”
It also helped him keep a
good balance in life, he said.
“Whether it’s in the Family
Court or the criminal court,
you’re dealing with people in
crisis almost all the time, so
the uncomplicated innocence
of writing children’s books
is
a really nice contrast with that.”
Although Judge Murfitt
spends most of his time
in Family Court, he also
does a share of the criminal
jurisdiction – and has
been known to use a more
personalised approach to
sentencing when appropriate.
Back in 2007, a 17-year-old
The Blind Care Company has been
cleaning and repairing the region’s blinds
for over 60 years. Those six decades
have seen changes in both fashion and
technology. Styles have ranged from
festooned fabric swags to straightforward
and still popular holland roller blinds,
from vertical to horizontal slat systems,
and in every colour or pattern popular
since the 1960s.
Whatever your style, the Blind Care
Company has the expertise to keep your
window treatments looking fresh and
working efficiently. Using only ecofriendly
chemicals, the build-up of dirt,
dust, grease, nicotine and smoke residue
appeared before him in the
Hawera District Court on
a disorderly behaviour charge.
“He was a young man who
was heading off the rails but he
was waiting to join the army. A
conviction was going to delay
him for three months. The army
was just what he needed and
a delay was not going to help
anyone.”
So Judge Murfitt sent him on
a run accompanied by police
– if he could do it in under an
hour, he would be discharged.
“The court was in uproar
cheering him on.”
can be removed so that your blinds
smell fresh and are restored to their
original glory. The company can repair
blinds also, having a huge range of parts
in stock. And if you want something
completely new, a great range of blinds is
available for purchase.
The company prides itself on efficient
service, providing a fast turn-around,
with most work taking one or two
days, and a same day cleaning option is
available. It makes it as easy as possible
for clients. The Cashel Street location
couldn’t be more convenient and a pickup
and drop-off service is available. 150
blinds per day can be cleaned at this site,
Turns out his parents were
marathon runners, he said, and
sure enough he made it and was
discharged without conviction.
“I know that he’s done really
well since then. He served
overseas, settled down and he’s
living a good, pre-social life.
“The whole drive of
sentencing is to (a) keep the
public protected, but (b) to
reduce the offender’s risk of
re-offending and returning to
court. Getting particular young
men on track is best for the
community.”
Last week, Judge Murfitt did a

A cut-down and size alteration service

They are experts in their field with a
huge amount of experience to draw on.
In fact, all their staff has been on board
for at least 8 years, and many up to 20
years. Whatever the job involves, they
will work hard to make sure it gets done,
including one job of 800 blinds which
they completed in 4 days.

Outlook brighter for red zoners
• By Gabrielle Stuart
THE FUTURE is looking
brighter for 57 property owners
who have opted to stay in the red
zone.
They have lived for six years
under the threat of being forced
to leave their homes if the
Government chose to use its
extraordinary powers.
But the new agency responsible
for the future of the red zone,
Regenerate Christchurch, seems
to be taking a softly, softly approach
and is promising to give
owners “meaningful participation”
in the planning process.
Chief executive Ivan Iafeta
said it was too early to say what
might feature in the plan for
each area.
But he said many of the families
living in the red zone had
already been visited in an effort
to keep them informed, and that
would continue.
“We recognise that when we
are talking about the residential
red zone, we are talking about
areas immediately around
people’s homes. So we are very
conscious of how that might
affect them and we recognise the
need to be respectful of them
throughout the process.”
Brooklands red zone resident
Lesley Griffiths said he had not
been visited, but was hopeful
the relationship with Regenerate
Christchurch could be a positive
one.
When the red zone was
managed by the Canterbury
Earthquake Recovery Authority,
he said he had received dozens of

Contamination
risk forces
construction
of new well
• By Bridget Rutherford
A NEW $7.4 million pump station
will be built in Harewood to
replace a shallow well at risk of
contamination.
The city council will build the
pump station on the site of its
Harewood Nursery on Gardiners
Rd, with work hoped to begin in
February.
It will replace the previous Harewood
Pump Station, which would
be decommissioned as part of the
work. It was less than 26m deep,
taking water from an unconfined
aquifer, which put it at risk of contamination.
The new pump station would
also provide for growth in the
north-west of the city, specifically
the Upper Styx residential greenfield
development area.
City council three waters and
waste planning and delivery
manager John Moore said the city
council had an agreement with the
Ministry of Health to decommission
its shallow wells in the northwest
of the city by June 30, 2018.
The new pump station will be
completed by then.

Devon Bond unmasked: ‘Smug
Kurt Bayer reports on a brutal rapist
who kept his crime a secret until he
was undone after a drunken night
The Star
THE VICTIM of violent sex
predator Devon Bond who for
20 years had got away with her
brutal rape, branded him “smug”
and a “nasty and evil man”
as he was jailed for almost 13
years with a minimum term of
imprisonment of eight years.
Former national wrestler
Bond, 49, had been released from
jail in 1998 after kidnapping a
North Canterbury woman with
the intention of raping her in
1995.
But only Bond knew at the
time that he had already raped,
and not been caught, when
he broke into a Christchurch
woman’s home on May 9, 1994,
and raped her at knifepoint.
For two decades, Bond lived
his dark secret until he got into a
drunken fight with police after a
boozy work night out in December
2014.
During his arrest, officers took
a DNA sample which matched
samples held at Environmental
Science and Research (ESR) that
were taken in 1994.
Bond was then arrested and
charged with the cold case rape,
sexual violation and abduction.
He pleaded guilty at the
High Court in Christchurch
in May this year to six charges,
including two charges of sexual
violation and rape, abduction,
aggravated burglary and assault
with a weapon.
Last week, he was jailed for
almost 13 years with a minimum
term of imprisonment of eight
years.
During his sentencing, the
court heard a harrowing victim
impact statement, where the victim
explained the long-standing
toll his vicious assault has had
on her.
Since police told her last year
that Bond’s DNA had matched
her attack and rape, and told her
that he’d been convicted for a
later nasty attack, it has bothered
her “just how smug [Bond] must
have felt.”
“You must have thought you

charges. (Right) A police sketch of Bond when police were hunting him for the 1995 rape.

must have got away with it,” said
the victim, who has permanent
name suppression.
“But you didn’t. Science has
caught you and there’s no way
out for you.”
The victim, who was 42 at the
time of the May 1994 rape, wonders
if there are other victims, as
yet undiscovered, that Bond still
feels smug about.
She said Bond had no right to
ruin women’s lives, violate her,
and “change my life forever.”
The victim wondered whether
it was his ego, along with his
physical size and strength, that
made him think he could do
what he did.
She also thought he was “arrogant”
and had “no empathy or
regard for other people.”
“The sheer physical terror and
the fear you created in me that
night was just the start of it,” she
said.
“It took a long time for the
sharp edges of these realities to
fade just a little.”
Her “new normal” means she
doesn’t go outside after dark, she
carries a panic alarm in her hand
from car to office, restaurant or
theatre.
Even during the day, she is
“very cautious.”

and a nasty and evil man’
At the slightest noise inside
or outside her home, she is put
on edge, while she “really freaks
out” if the telephone line goes
dead.
While she says Bond hasn’t
ruined her life, because she has
been determined that wouldn’t
happen, she feels he has “stolen
my freedom and rights to live a
normal and happy life.”
“You are a nasty and evil man
who needs to be taken off the
streets for the longest possible
time,” she concluded.
The Crown pushed for a sentence
of preventive detention.
Prosecutor Claire Boshier
described the case as “one of the
most serious instances of rape
that can come before the court.”
She pointed to the predatory,
violent nature of the attack and
the fact that Bond had not yet
undertaken any treatment for his
sexual offending.
Boshier said Bond displays
narcissistic and anti-social traits
and is at a medium to high risk
of sexual re-offending.
For the last 18 years, he has
led a “pro-social life,” his lawyer
Tony Greig said.
Justice Gerald Nation said

for the 1994 offending.
The court was told of Bond’s
early violent tendencies, including
an instance when he set fire
to a family cat.
Bond was put into the care of
Child, Youth and Family before
the age of 10 because of his
habits of stealing, vandalism and
running away.
Bond’s offending came shortly
after the end of his wrestling
career and the end of his first
long-term relationship.
He then drank too much, fell
in with gangs, and became a
standover guy for them.
The judge carefully considered
whether Bond should be sentenced
indefinitely under a term
of preventive detention.
However, he said that Bond
had a lot of rehabilitation work to
do, and urged him to participate
in a treatment programme.
“You should want to do that
given the serious harm you did
to your victims.”
Bond was born on October 28,
1966.
Raised in North Canterbury,
he attended Rangiora High
School and was well-known
in the Leithfield and Waikuku
beach areas.

all-round sportsman, he would
become a top wrestler, representing
New Zealand at world championships
and Commonwealth
wrestling championships in
Canada.
But there was always something
about Bond that made
many people – especially females
– nervous and uncomfortable.
Some of the women who grew
up around him found him lecherous,
“creepy” and “pervy.”
On April 17, 1994, he was arrested
for assaulting a woman in
Rangiora.
In May that year, police records
show he was living in New
Brighton. About 1am on May 9,
1994, a 42-year-old woman who
had just moved into her new
Christchurch home was woken
by a loud click.
In the darkness, she thought
there had been a power cut.
But the click she’d heard was
Bond switching her mains power
off manually in the garage.
The woman got out of bed. As
she stood in the hallway, Bond

burst through the internal garage
door armed with a knife with a
12-15cm blade. He was wearing
dark clothing and a mask or
balaclava over his face.
“What do you think you are
doing?” the terrified woman
asked.
“Keep quiet,” Bond said as
he marched her back to her
bedroom.
He held the knife against her
throat, bound her arms behind
her back with a length of cord
he’d cut from her clothesline,
and put a pillowcase over her
head.
“Why are you doing this?” the
woman pleaded.
“You bitches are all the same,”
Bond replied, before he sexually
assaulted and raped the woman.
Afterwards, he emptied the
woman’s purse, ripped the
telephone cord from its socket,
and told her: “If I get caught, I’ll
be back.”
He disappeared into the night.
They nearly got him. The
police intelligence system linked
Bond to a light-blue Holden
panel van on August 3, 1994,
three months after the attack. He
later became its registered owner
in October 1998.

Drunken night was Bond’s undoing
•From page 17
Two witnesses contacted the
original investigating detectives
to say they had seen a light-blue
Holden ute parked near the victim’s
house the night before. One
said it was gone in the morning.
A police dog handler had
tracked from the woman’s house,
across a farm paddock, to the
exact location the van had been
spotted.
Muddy footprints were found
inside and outside the woman’s
home.
While they never led to Bond,
he didn’t stay under the radar for
long.
Every morning, Bond’s second
victim, a 37-year-old woman,
jogged her familiar loop through
willow trees lining the Ashley
River stopbank.
She was unaware of a man
crouched in the bushes, watching
her through binoculars.
Bond did this twice, hoping to
see her go home and watch her
undress.
On the third occasion, on
May 30, 1995 her route veered
towards where he was hiding.
Rather than be discovered, he
decided to attack her.
The burly wrestler leaped up,
grabbed her and punched her
five times in the face.
She screamed as he dragged
her 180m to his car, hands
around her neck, telling her to
be quiet.
He pushed her into the car and
started driving.
Believing she was going to be
raped, she desperately tried to
get out but he restrained her.
Bond stopped
the car, removed
her top,
and used it to
tie her hands
behind her
back.
She tried to
get away again
but he caught
her.
He pushed
her into the
boot and drove
off.
The woman – who, like Bond’s
first victim, has permanent name
suppression – untied herself,
managed to release the boot
lock and threw herself out of the
moving vehicle.
Bloodied and bruised from
the attack and the fall from the
speeding car, she ran across a
paddock to a house to get help.
Bond drove on, unaware of her
escape.
Police caught up with him
weeks later. He admitted attacking
the woman with the intention
of raping her.
He was jailed for nine years in
July 1995.
After his release from jail, it
appears Bond went straight.
He had a stable partner and
child.
‘He held the
knife against her
throat, bound her
arms behind her
back . . . and put
a pillowcase over
her head’
Since
2008, he had
been a highly-valued
site
foreman at a
Canterbury
construction
company.
Some
friends and
workmates
knew about
his conviction
for the
1995 abduction. But nobody
knew his dark secret – until he
had too much to drink at a work
night out.
December 6, 2014, had been a
good night. Bond and his workmates
had watched a comrade
fight at a charity boxing event in
Hornby.
Afterwards, they kept drinking
at Temps Bar & Casino.
They’d piled into a nearby car
park where the boss was phoning
taxis to take them all home.
While they were waiting, Bond
and a workmate started playfighting.
It attracted the attention of
passing police.
Concerned about the group’s
rowdy behaviour, they suggested
the men move on.
Bond and some of his mates
took exception to what they
viewed as being unreasonableness
by police.
Officers were threatened,
taunted and insulted.
Bond told police, “You’re
f****** nothing,” “I’m going to
smash you” and “I am going to
kill you pig.”
Two of Bond’s workmates were
arrested.
Bond, described as being “very
intoxicated and very hostile,”
lunged at an officer. During
the ensuing struggle, the pair
smashed through a window of
the Hornby Law Centre.
As both men lay on the
ground, Bond then moved his
left foot in a stomping action to
hit the constable on the head.
A judge would later find,
beyond reasonable doubt, that
Bond behaved in a disorderly
manner, resisted arrest, and
assaulted a police officer in the
execution of his duty.
Given he was arrested on summary
offence matters, legislation
introduced in 2012 meant police
could take a DNA sample from
Bond.
It was run through the vast
National DNA Profile Databank
and matched samples held at
Environmental Science and
Research (ESR) that were taken
in 1994.
His past finally caught up with
him.
When he was interviewed
by police in February last year,
Bond said it was all “bulls***”
and refused to comment further.
On the morning his trial was
due to start at the High Court in
Christchurch on May 2, Bond
entered guilty pleas.
Friends and workmates had
been in court to support a friend
they thought had been wrongly
charged.
They were stunned when Bond
suddenly admitted to being a
predatory rapist.
“It was total shock. He’d
always said it was lies . . . and we
all believed him. He deserves
everything coming to him,” one
former friend said. - NZ Herald

Broader regeneration
remains in full swing
CANTERBURY’S earthquakerelated
consents have totalled
$3.9 billion since September
2010.
Last month alone, the value
of Canterbury’s earthquakerelated
building consents was
$41.3 million.
Figures released by Statistics
New Zealand this week showed
in the year to September,
almost 30,000 new homes were
consented nationwide – up
14 per cent from the previous
year.
In Canterbury, while not all
earthquake-related building
are easily identified, 31,505 new
dwellings have been consented
in the last six years.
The total value of these
consents is almost $19 billion.
In spite of a decrease in
the number of new homes
consented last month in the
region, figures remain at
historically high levels.
While the bulk of earthquake
repairs and rebuilds have now
been completed, the broader
regeneration remains in full
swing.
It’s not just new homes that
are being built. The commercial
core of Christchurch is
continuing to benefit from
significant investment.
In the last 12 months,
Canterbury contributed the
second highest value of nonresidential
building consents,
valued at $1.6 billion.
The steady pace of the
earthquake recovery has helped
prolong the economic benefits
of the rebuild, rather than
producing a boom and bust
effect.
The Earthquake Commission,
New Zealand’s natural disaster
insurer, has paid out about $9.4
billion settling Canterbury
claims.
In a commercial sense, the
vast majority of investment in
Christchurch has so far been
Gerry Brownlee
from local and national
sources, which I view as a major
success.
There has been international
capital flowing into
Christchurch too, including
recently with the Christchurch
Adventure Park and the health
research and education facility
in the city’s new health precinct.
In May, Treasury estimated
the volume of investment
associated with the residential
rebuild was about $15 billion
and about $9 billion so far for
the commercial rebuild.
The social and infrastructure
rebuild estimate is $11 billion.
Around $28 billion of the
rebuild is expected to be
finished before June 2020.

$165,000 plan to manage old trees
• By Bridget Rutherford
ABOUT $165,000 will be spent
developing a plan looking at
ways to mitigate the effects of
the city’s ageing tree population.
The city council decided to
write an Urban Tree and Forest
Plan to plan how to manage
trees in the future.
It will look at ways to deal
with the ageing population,
climate change, urban heating,
transport-related greenhouse
gases and airborne pollutants,
and ways to support Christchurch’s
garden
city image.
City council
head of parks
Andrew Rutledge
(left) said
the plan, which
will be completed
in 2018,
will provide “strategic direction”
to deal with those factors.
He said older trees could be
managed by removing branches,
or placing a mulch layer over the
roots, however, it became costly
the further the tree declined.
“If trees decline to the point
that personal health and safety
may be at risk we act accordingly.”
Meanwhile, the city council

has spent more than $257,000
over the past year on reports and
assessments of trees.
Figures released to The Star
under the Local Government
Official Information and Meetings
Act, showed from August
2015 to August 2016, $257,872
was spent on these reports.
That figure related to assessments
done for any reason, not
just in relation to tree removals.
In July, the city council set
aside $30,000 for carrying out
tree assessments at Bells Creek
in Woolston, as part of the flood
HUGE CLEARANCE

don't miss out
mitigation scheme.
City council land drainage
manager Keith Davison said to
date, $11,553 had been spent on
arborist services for the $9 million
project.
He said that included the
in-house assessment of 317 trees
across five sites. Thirteen of
those trees were removed and
replaced.
The work was done to see what
condition the trees affected by
the work were in, and whether
the scheme could be designed
around them, Mr Davison said.
Three reports and a memorandum
were produced from the
work. In all cases, the city council’s
operational arborist team
conducts its own assessment on
the trees first.
Additionally, it may commission
an independent arborist
for a report to get a peer review,
during high demand periods, in
relation to significant trees, or
for trees in heritage parks.
A tree survey of the Avon
River’s stopbanks in June was

New bishop
will decide
future of school
• By Bridget Rutherford
THE FUTURE of Marian College
will not be decided until a new
Catholic Bishop of Christchurch
is appointed.
The diocese has been looking
at permanent options to rebuild
the school after being forced from
its North Pde site following the
February 2011 earthquake.
However, none have been set in
stone.
In a letter to the school, administrator
of the diocese Reverend
Rick Loughnan said the decision
would be deferred until a new
bishop was appointed, and
further investigations were carried
out.
“We must be 100 per cent sure
of our reasoning when the final
decision is made and, with a new
bishop soon to be appointed, it
would seem appropriate for him,
with our guidance, to have input
into this final decision,” the letter
said.
Marian principal Mary-Lou
Davidson said the school was in
good heart while it waited to see
where it would be rebuilt.
“It’s an important decision. We
want one that has the best outcome
for the school.”

Light rail a game changer
We said:
On-campus parking
charges at Canterbury
University will be increased
to meet costs for car
parking and maintenance
without cutting into the
university’s tuition revenue.
You said:
Elsabe Ackermann – Do I
get a dedicated car park with my
name on for $1000 in 2019? Our
parking permits are just a licence
to hunt for a park. Upside with
that increase there might be loads
of empty car parks to choose from.
Keriana Thompson – That’s
crazy! There’s no parking on our
street . . . we’ve seen so many people
get tickets for nothing! Makes
me mad! If my driveway was
longer I’d let people park in it.
Tessa Burrows – So wrong
– parking was free while I was
there and so it should be, you are
not guaranteed a park, it reduces
street parking and the universities
at the very least should provide
parking to students paying to go
to the school.
Samantha Boon – They say
we should catch the bus or bike
. . . some of us live pretty far to
bike and that is beside the point
when you need a car to pick up
kids from day care.
Courtney Collins –
Ridiculous as if $300 wasn’t
enough to pay on top of our $700
student levy we pay and all the
other thousands of dollars we pay
for tuition!? Plus you can’t always
get a park in certain car parks
anyway! You cannot tell me it
costs that much to have our cars
on some concrete.
ONE OF the big bits of political
news this week was Labour’s
announcement that we will
fund a new light rail system
in Auckland to help that city
break out of its disastrous traffic
gridlock.
With National reflexively
coming out against the idea,
it reopened a long running
debate about the role of public
transport in modern cities.
Here in Christchurch, as we
often are, we’re a bit ahead of
the curve on this one. In the last
election, Labour identified the
urgent need for light rail to the
north and west of the city.
For us, it’s simple – no great
city in the world has ever been
able to fix their traffic problems
by just building more roads.
As the old saying goes, if you
build it, they will come, and
what city after city has found
is that if you build more roads,
more people will use cars.
In Christchurch, the challenge
is even greater due to the earthquakes.
The massive population
upheaval caused by the quakes
have meant our city is growing
and changing in ways none of
us could have predicted just a
few short years ago. With huge
swathes of our population now
moving to the west and north,
it’s vital that these new areas
be supported by high quality
transport infrastructure.
The alternative is to end up
like Auckland has been, with
roads clogged with too much
traffic. Congestion can be a
major drag not just on quality of
life but on our local economy as
well, as workers waste hours of
their lives stuck in traffic. And
in an increasingly carbon constrained
world, public transport
has a vital role to play in helping
us reduce our carbon emissions.
That’s why light rail would
be such a game changer for our
city. It’ll help us unclog our
roads, make it easier for people
to get around, help us support
new areas as our city grows, and
help us play a role in the right
against climate change.
It’s the way of the future, it’s
what modern, successful cities
do. And I’m proud that Labour
stands for modern, accessible
public transport.

Canterbury spokeswoman

Business
Travel agents test new Europe link
• By Kate Preece
HOT ON the tail of Emirates
A380’s arrival in Christchurch,
a week-long business trip takes
flight tomorrow, bound for
southern China, to expand on
opportunities for Cantabrians.
China Southern
Airlines and the
Sanya Tourism
Development Board
will host a group of
Gareth
Williamson
Christchurch travel
agents on a tour of
Guangzhou and
Hainan Island. The travellers
will experience China Southern’s
Dreamliner (Boeing 787) and
see how this route can be used as
the first stop for those looking to
experience Europe.
The addition of China
Southern’s direct route from
Christchurch to Guangzhou in
December last year was a sign
of the airline’s commitment to
Christchurch. Nearly one year
on, Asia’s largest airline can have
no regrets with demand requiring
an increase in frequency
from three to five flights a week
from December.
“[Adding the direct flight] was
a huge leap of faith,” Christchurch
Airport trade development
manager Gareth Williamson

said, and it has paid off for both
parties.
The airport has experienced
its highest passenger levels since
pre-quake Christchurch. The
group of nine will experience
first-hand why growth for both
parties has been so rapid.
“We want to ensure travel
agencies are confident in the
product [Boeing 787] and
customer experience the
airline is providing,” said Mr
Williamson.
Hello World network leader
Kim Grafton is looking forward
to exploring the region for the
first time.
“I’m really curious – about the
airline, how they compare and
what the region offers,” she said.
“But it’s also about building
trust in the brand [China Southern
Airlines] which is not as
well-known as some of the other
operators.”
With the increase in trade,
both inbound and outbound
travel between China and
Christchurch are viewed as key
areas for further development,
Grafton said. The group of
senior travel agents represent a
wide range of travellers, from
students to corporates, and will
experience the first leg of what
is one of the fastest routes from
Christchurch to Europe.
An hour’s flight from Guangzhou
will see them on the ground
in Sanya, Hainan Island, the
southern-most city that boasts
white-sand beaches, a tropical
climate (annual average 25.8 deg
C) and air quality that’s the highest
of all China’s cities.

•The largest airline in the
People’s Republic of China
for more than 35 years
•Holds the best flight
safety record among Chinese
airlines
•Fleet size of 500 modern
aircraft
•Serves more than 190
destinations
•The Christchurch to
Guangzhou (CAN) flight
takes 12 hours, and currently
departs Sundays,

Learning to swim
all part of summer’s fun
I LIKEN my other half
to that of a fish, and our
four daughters, his little
guppies.
He’s amazing in the
Melissa McDonnell
water, and could spend
hours with our girls
frolicking, duck-diving
and generally mucking
about.
While I could save
myself if I had to,
swimming is not my
number one go-to activity.
I am notorious for feeling
the cold and so unless it’s a
scorching day and there’s a
24-plus deg C pool handy,
I’d rather be a sideline
observer.
That said, I was very
keen for my children to
start swimming from
an early age, and have
always viewed lessons as
a compulsory activity, as
opposed to an optional
one. Yes, it is an expensive
exercise putting them all
through lessons, but, it’s
something that is of high
priority and a mainstay in
our budget.
We have trekked to the
pools almost every week
since our eldest was sixmonths-old,
culminating
in us having spent six-anda-half
years worth of lessons
in the water alongside
them. But since the twins
turned three, all that has
changed.
My days of slowly, inching
into the pool (and
scrambling out of it) are
officially over.
No more winter lessons
and wrestling two, sticky
little bodies into suitably
warm clothes (as I myself
stand sodden and regress
into a freezing cold, bluelipped,
teeth-chattering
mess).
The little ones are now
old enough to have solo
lessons with their instructor,
allowing me to support
from the sidelines. And it’s
fair to say, I’m quite happy
about that.
Although initially hesitant
to jump in without us, they
trust and adore their swim
teacher so much that the
transition was pretty easy.
They referred to themselves
as “Big Girls in the
pool” and supported each
other to achieve their little
milestones.
They loved diving off the
side and ducking down
to the bottom, and have
demonstrated a huge leap
in confidence and ability in
only two lessons without us.
And in spite of not having
to get in with them, I
ended up jumping in after
their last lesson and we
had a great play together
(the kids’ pool is heated to
a tolerable 28 deg C, so I
could cope with that). The
weather was warm, the sun
was shining – this was my
kind of swimming.
So as the summer approaches,
I look forward
to our new style of pool
fun. The girls are flourishing
and I look forward
to dipping in with them
when it’s warm enough to
be enjoyable. Winning all
around and looking forward
to a summer of fun at
Jellie Park.

Ideas for pool
complex
flood in
A PIRATE ship, murals or
a flying fox are some of the
things people would like to see
included in a new hot water pool
complex and playground in New
Brighton.
People have been asked to send
in ideas for the city council’s
proposed “legacy project” hot
salt water pool complex and
whale pool playground upgrade.
Submissions are open until
Monday, and as of last week 547
people had sent ideas in.
DCL chief executive Rob Hall
said the response from the local
community has been phenomenal,
with strong support for a
development in the area and a
lot of of ideas about what this
could include.
“We’ve already done some
work on what these developments
could involve for New
Brighton, but it was always
going to be crucial to get public
input into the process before we
pushed ahead.”
People can send in submissions
through the city council
website. A decision on the scope
of the work is expected before
the end of the year, so design of
the project can start in 2017.

Taste
Gin shots
•THe fat in smoked salmon or gravlax,
cold-cured spiced salmon, served with toast
provides a rich counterpart to gin. Shrimp,
scallops, and oysters sprinkled with lemon
juice all pair nicely with gin, as well. Serve
small crab cakes with lemon aioli for a bitesize
snack.
•The first confirmed date for the production
of gin is the early 17th-century in Holland,
although claims have been made that it was
produced prior to this in Italy. In Holland it
was produced as a medicine and sold in chemist
shops to treat stomach complaints, gout
and gallstones. To make it more palatable, the
Dutch started to flavour it with juniper, which
had medicinal properties of its own.
•British troops fighting in the Low Countries
during the Thirty Years’ War were given
‘Dutch Courage’ during the long campaigns in
the damp weather through the warming properties
of gin. Eventually they started bringing
it back home with them, where already it was
often sold in chemists’ shops. Distillation was
taking place in a small way in England, but
it now began on a greater scale, though the
quality was often very dubious. Nevertheless,
the new drink became a firm favourite with
the poor.
•When King William III – better known
as William of Orange – came to the English
throne in 1689, he made a series of statutes
actively encouraging the distillation of English
spirits. Anyone could now distil by simply
posting a notice in public and just waiting 10
days. Sometimes gin was distributed to workers
as part of their wages and soon the volume
sold daily exceeded that of beer and ale.

GREAT food
BROUGHT TO YOU BY...
Your fresh food people
HERB AND CRUMB
CHICKEN TENDERLOINS
WITH FRIED RICE
Crumbed chicken
¾ cup White breadcrumbs, or
panko crumbs
2 Tbsp Chopped parsley
¼ cup Seasoned flour
1 Egg, lightly beaten with a little
milk
8 Chicken tenderloins
1 serving Oil, for shallow frying
Fried rice
2 Tbsp Peanut oil
2 Eggs
1 tsp Sesame oil
1 tsp Light soy sauce
3 cups Cooked rice, cold
1 Shallot, or 2 spring onions,
thinly sliced
1 cup Mung bean sprouts
2 cups Broccoli, cut into very
small florets
2 Tbsp Water
¼ cup Parsley, or coriander
leaves
Directions
Place the breadcrumbs and
chopped parsley on a large
plate and the seasoned flour
on another. Place egg mixture
in a shallow bowl. Dip chicken
tenderloins in the flour dusting
off any excess, then the egg and
finally in the breadcrumbs,
pressing them down so the
tenderloins are well coated. Place
on a tray, cover and, if necessary,
refrigerate until ready to cook.
Pour enough oil into the base
of a large frying pan so it comes
up the sides by about 2cm.
When hot, place in the chicken
tenderloins (you may need to
cook in two batches), and cook
on one side until you can see the
chicken is nearly cooked. Turn
over and cook until crumbs are
golden. Remove from the frying
pan and place on scrunched-up
kitchen paper to drain. Keep
warm while you cook the fried
rice.
Heat one Tbsp peanut oil in
a wok or large frying pan. In a
small bowl, lightly beat the eggs
with sesame oil and soy sauce.
Pour into the hot wok, allow to
set to an omelette, turn over and
cook on the other side. Remove
to a plate.
Heat remaining peanut oil
in the wok and add the cooked
rice, stirring constantly. Add
shallot or spring onion, mung
bean sprouts and broccoli florets.
Sprinkle over water, cover and
cook for three to five minutes to
allow the broccoli to soften.
Chop omelette into strips and
stir into rice with herb leaves.
Serve with crumbed chicken
tenderloins and your favourite
tomato sauce.
ASPARAGUS WITH
BALSAMIC AND BASIL
Ingredients
1 bunch Asparagus, woody ends
snapped off
½ large Red onion, thinly sliced
1 Tbsp Balsamic vinegar
½ cup Walnut pieces, drytoasted
½ cup Basil leaves, finely
chopped
3 Tbsp Grated parmesan cheese
2 Tbsp Olive oil
Directions
Place the red onion slices in
a small dish and cover with
the balsamic. Set aside for five
minutes.
Cut the asparagus into 5cm
lengths. Blanch in boiling
water for one minute, then run
under cold water (alternatively,
microwave the pieces in a bowl
of cold water for 2 minutes, then
drain). It will retain its crunch.
Place the asparagus in a bowl,
and add the vinegar and the
onions. Add walnuts, basil and
parmesan, then drizzle over the
olive oil.
Gently toss to combine and
serve.

Rachel Vogan says the hydrangea is one of the easiest and
most charming shrubs to grow, and it’s making a major
comeback.
SOME GOOD old-fashioned shrubs are
climbing their way back up the popularity
ladder, and hydrangeas are making
that comeback quickly and in epic
proportions.
Suddenly they don’t seem to be old
and fuddy-duddy anymore. The value of
having a reliable plant that blooms for
months on end and is easy-care appeals to
the time-poor. Being adaptable to sun and
shade simply boosts their appeal.
Planting drifts of hydrangeas is an
easy way of having a low-maintenance,
colourful garden display for months on
end. These hardy shrubs can be grown all
over the country, from the hot and humid
north right down to the cold and chilly
south. With foliage and form, these gapfilling
shrubs need more recognition.
Hydrangeas can be used in numerous
ways:
• Planted under large trees.
• Blended into shrub borders.
• Planted along the shady cold side
of the house.
• As patio and entranceway focal
points.
• In pots and containers, and even
hanging baskets if you can find one big
enough.
New dwarf hybrids are appearing
every season, many of which are bred to
cope with full sun as well as shade. This
expands the areas in which they can be
used in the garden. And it makes them
ideal for growing in planters and large
tubs.

WHERE AND HOW TO PLANT
Soil is the main thing to get right. Make
sure it is well dug over before planting,
blend on half a bucket of compost or
manure and sprinkle in some general
fertiliser. Nestle in the plant, firm the soil
around it, then add a layer of mulch around
the base to keep the soil cooler and weeds
away. Dwarf varieties are perfect pot-plant
specimens, and hanging baskets options. If
you can find one big enough, in most areas
you will have foliage for nine to 10 months
of the year and flowers for about half of
that.
PRUNING
Prune hydrangeas each season after
flowering in June, July or August. Remove
about 50 per cent of the stem, down to a set
of fat plump green buds, which will develop
into next season’s flowers.
PROPAGATING HYDRANGEAS
At pruning time, select some straight
stems for cuttings. In a pot filled in potting
mix or loose soil, insert these sticks until at
least 50 per cent is underground. In three
to four months roots will begin to appear
through the bottom of the pot.

BLUE AND PINK HYDRANGEAS
Hydrangea flower colours can change
with different soil fertility. Many gardeners
have been mystified by this as they may
purchase a pink or red hydrangea in flower
from the garden centre and find a year
later, once it’s been in the garden a season,
that the flowers have changed colour to
a shade of mauve or blue. This is because
flower colour is affected by the soil’s pH
level.
Below clockwise – Mop head Mariko;
Hydrangea oakleaf Snowflake; Levana
is a H. paniculata hybrid; Pink Maiden
is another new one. With black stems
and rich green leaves, this one is
all about contrast; a wonderful cut
flower; Sumiko has plenty of street
appeal with its two-toned flowers.
WHAT YOU NEED
TO KNOW
When to plant
All year round.
Where to plant
Most prefer a site with some shade,
however, new varieties have been
developed which cope in sun or
shade.
When to prune
After flowering in late autumn and
winter.
When to propagate
In winter, by stem cuttings. Insert
the cutting into a pot, making sure
at least half the cutting is in the soil.
Plant spacing
1.5-2m between plants.
Where to buy
All good garden centres, hardware
stores and online.
Gardening
Guide
Colour in the Shade
To some a shaded garden presents a number
of challenges, but for me I absolutely love the
variety of plants that are available for a semi to
fully shaded garden. The most intriguing thing
is the selection of colours available, not just
through flowers, but also with foliage colours
and patterns. So whether you are looking for
plants to dot under a deciduous tree, a shaded
side of the house, or even pots and planters, I
invite you to come and visit our experienced
and knowledgeable staff, the choices are
endless. In the meantime here are a few shade
lovers for the home gardener this spring.
Fuchsias – As a child I loved looking and
playing with the exotic, bright flowers from
these beautiful dancing ladies. Choose from
bush or basket varieties, which will brighten
up any dull space in late spring through to
autumn.
Heuchera – With so many amazing foliage
colours the hardest choice will be which
colours to plant. I love to see them dotted in a
garden border, incorporated into a woodland
garden scheme, or to add splashes of colour in
pots and planters in semi-shade.
Camellia and Rhodos – A common plant
which can’t be overlooked because they
are brilliant to add height and dimension.
Remember that if you have a narrow garden
the sasanqua camellias are the perfect choice
as they like to grow thin and high, and there
are many varieties of dwarf rhodos which are
simply delightful in a semi-shaded garden.
Hosta – A garden classic for a semi to fullyshaded
garden. Many people know and love
the hosta for the amazing foliage colours
which add a great contrast in the garden, but
what many don’t realise is that they have
beautiful flowers also.
Rhodohypoxis – From late spring until
autumn these brilliant wee beauties seem to
have more flower than plant. Dotted around
the garden border or to complement other
plants in pots, these stunning cuties are
packed full of flower power and love semishade.
Bedding Plants – The perfect choice for a
shaded or semi shaded hanging basket, pots
and planters or garden borders are impatiens,
mimulus, begonias, tuberous begonias,
pansies and cineraria.
There are so many choices for a shaded garden,
so come on in. We are more than happy to help
make your shade pop with colour.

St Petersburg: Russia’s window to the West
GRANDUER: The Winter Palace.
• By Mike Yardley
THE SENSATION of a city
seemingly afloat is what first
struck me, as I stood on the banks
of the River Neva to toast my
arrival in St Petersburg, with a
few vodka shots.
As this was my first foray to
Russia, I had joined a Trafalgar
guided journey of this decorated
city, built across 44 islands, crisscrossed
by canals and a staggering
300 bridges.
Visitors flock here to experience
one of life’s great truths – St
Petersburg is one of the world’s
most beautiful cities. Trafalgar’s
local specialist, Deena, was a
godsend helping our group get to
grips with St Petersburg’s signature
sights and stories. For firsttimers,
it’s the imperial extravagance,
commissioned by Peter the
Great, that will command your
attention.
This remarkable Russian Tsar
not only constructed the city as
the new national capital in 1703,
but was determined to make it
Russia’s window to the West,
underpinned with exuberant European
architectural flourishes.
St Petersburg is home to no
fewer than 500 palaces. In a bid to
save them, the Russian Government
has privatised many of these
peeling and crumbling pastel confections,
before they literally fall
apart. But because the cityscape
oozes historic grandeur on such a
massive scale, you don’t have stroll
the streets for long before you
actually feel architecturally drunk.
But few buildings are quite as
intoxicating as the chart-topping
Winter Palace and the State
Hermitage, delivering decorative
excess, all areas.
Parade across parquet floors and
down marble staircases to gasp at
gigantic crystal chandeliers and
wrap-around gilded rooms, wallpapered
in priceless art.
Beyond, the trappings of
royalty, the Hermitage houses a
thousand rooms of art, which as
Deena remarked, soon makes
you realise that exploring St
Petersburg’s treasures is a test of
endurance.
The Romanov’s amassed, connived
and looted an insatiable
trove of masterpieces.
With over three million items,
even if you looked at each exhibit
for one minute, it would take you
nearly three years to see it all.
Not only did Deena deftly
navigate us around the headliners
from da Vinci’s delightful
Madonna and Child, to the
Picasso, Rubens and Rembrandt
pieces, but exploring the Hermitage
with Trafalgar gave us fasttrack
entrance into the museum,
circumventing the horrendously
long queues.
Beyond the imperial prowess
of central St Petersburg, a jaunt
south to the city’s outer reaches
brought us to Tsar’s Village, which
is now officially called Pushkin.
It’s as close as the Nazis got to
conquering St Petersburg – they
never did, in spite of the supreme
confidence of Hitler.
But the Nazis did seize Catherine
Palace, a glittering country
estate commissioned by Catherine
the Great, which they duly plundered
and ruined. You may well
have heard of the Amber Room,
the piece de resistance of the palace,
which later became one of the
world’s great art mysteries.
After being stolen by the Nazis,
debate remains whatever happened
to its treasures, but a new
Amber Room has been gloriously
constructed at the palace – largely
with German funds.
Vladimir Putin has presided
over the comprehensive restoration
of this wondrous palace to its
former glory. It is a heart-stealer,
as are the dramatic photos of its
mangled carcass following World
War 2. But for all of the architectural
magnificence studding St
Petersburg, my runaway favourite
is Peterhof, a short drive from
Catherine Palace.
The site was originally developed
as Peter the Great’s naval
base, but he later commissioned
this pleasure pad as a vanity project,
after visiting France.
The prized centrepiece is
the Grand Cascade and Water
Avenue, a gushing symphony
of over 140 gilded fountains
and ingenious canals, which he
partly engineered himself, using
a gravity-fed design. The lavish,
manicured grounds and gardens
are gorgeous to stroll, looking out
to the Gulf of Finland.

Fashion
Race day tips for the boys
• By Annabelle Dick
THE BOLDER the better – that
seems to be this year’s mantra
for men’s NZ Cup and Show
Week fashion.
By no means am I an expert
in men’s fashion, so I called
into a few menswear stores
to see what’s been flying off
the shelves in preparation for
Christchurch’s biggest event on
the fashion calendar.
At 3 Wise Men in the Re:Start
container mall, it’s all about the
shirt.
Block colour and patterned
dress shirts have been a popular
favourite for race day.
“There’s a lot of checks this
year. Like check shirts and bold
colours, not so much plain,” said
store manager Jess Edwards.
“I’d go for a bright, colourful
shirt like bright green or pink
with a navy suit.”
In the suit department, long
gone are the days of the classic
cut black suit – navies, greys and
patterns have been selling out
this season.
“Maybe a bit of texture or
really subtle checks, but mostly
navy and grey,” Miss Edwards
said.
Bonus: There are almost no
RACE DAY READY: Mix up your suit texture like these young
men at the New Zealand Trotting Cup last year by sporting a
pattern on your suit jacket.

coloured shirts that don’t match
navy or grey.
At Meccano Riccarton,
they’ve been noticing the suit
and shirt trend, too.
“Men are going for quite
bold patterns and they want
something a bit more edgy. We
have a few floral shirts at the
moment and people have been
gravitating towards those quite
intense patterns,” sales assistant
Claudia Copeland said.
“We haven’t sold many black
suits either – charcoal grey and
navy have been popular.”
She said men are changing it
up this year by opting for a waist
coat instead of a jacket, or swapping
suit pants for a more casual
chino.
“There’s been a lot of mix and
matching going on this season,”
Miss Copeland said.
When it comes to ties, you’ll
get away with ditching it if
you’ve chosen a busy shirt.
“Where people can get away
with not wearing a tie, they
won’t. That’s why they’ve been
going for the boldly patterned
shirts, because it’s easier to get
away with not wearing one,”
Miss Copeland said.
Now you’ve got the suit
pinned down, you need footwear
to match.
Alert: Black won’t work with a
navy or grey suit. Save them for
funeral and weddings and pair
your outfit with shoes in brown
hues.
“Brown shoes have been very
popular with the brogue detail.
We have suede boots in at the
moment that have been really
popular. People have been opting
for that instead of the classic
black,” Miss Edwards said.

Theatre/Arts
Play questions the audience
The Events, by John
Browne and Matt
Everingham, directed by
Dan Pengelly, The Forge
theatre at The Court.
Reviewed by Barry
Southam
THIS PLAY is something of
an intellectual teaser.
A number of choir members
have been shot and killed
in what seems a random act
of violence.
Emotional weight is given
to this production by the
placing a of a full choir on
stage, the members of which
have not seen the script in advance,
thus providing genuine
and transparent reactions to
what develops. A different
local choir is used each night,
and for opening night it was
the Nasda year 1 and year 3
who were in powerful and
moving voice.
The vicar and choir master
Claire survives the mass
shooting and tries to make
sense of what has happened
by questioning the shooter,
a young man called simply
“The Boy,” played by Arlo
Gibson.
The Boy has simplistic and
perverse ideas about race and
multiculturalism and under
cross-examination at times
just says he can’t remember.
Gibson also plays politicians
and journalists as Claire tries
to produce some rational
explanation for such evil by
talking to them, but this does
not produce any real answers.
The trap of a cliched response
is thus neatly avoided.
Designed to raise questions
for the audience, the damage
that such chaos leaves in its
wake is well presented as a
damaged Claire continues to
explore what has happened,
even seeking out the boy’s
absent father, but with still no
real resolution.
The increasing numbers of
such random happenings in
Western society sits behind
these dialogues and also
leaves a trail of bewilderment
for the average citizen confronted
with graphic details
in their television news and
newspapers.
The audience’s emotions
and intellect are fully engaged
in the hour and a quarter
running time, the beauty of
the singing and the rawness
of the events remaining well
past the conclusion, and no
doubt leaving much discussion
for those attending.
THOUGHT-PROVOKING PLAY:
The Court Theatre has produced
a moving play directed by Daniel
Pengelly (above) featuring
community choir director Claire,
played by Alison Bruce, with The
Boy, who commits the shooting,
played by Arlo Gibson.

Fill the grid so that every row,
every column and every 3x3
box contains the digits 1 to 9.
The number game that
improves your arithmetic
HOW TO PLAY
It’s like sudoku: each
vertical and horizontal
line has to contain
the numbers 1-6, and
the numbers can’t be
repeated in any row or
column.
But it’s sudoku with a
twist: The numbers in
each heavily outlined
set of squares, called
cages, must produce the
number in the top corner.
For example, 5+ means
the numbers add up to 5,
9x means the numbers
multiply to equal 9.
TIP: Numbers can be repeated in a cage, as long as they are not in the
same line or row.

Wingers get Crusaders chance
• By Gordon Findlater
TWO OF the most exciting
wingers from this year’s Mitre
10 Cup will get their first
taste of Super Rugby with the
Crusaders in 2017.
New signings Manasa
Mataele, of Taranaki, and Canterbury’s
George Bridge are
expected to stake their claim
for a spot on the wing.
The Crusaders squad was announced
yesterday.
With Fijian superstar Nemani
Nadolo now plying his trade
with Montpellier in France, and
fellow Fijian Jone Macilai expected
to miss a large chunk of
the Crusaders season through
injury, Mataele who also hails
from the island nation is a
valued acquisition.
Coach Scott Robertson went
big on the winger, prying him
from Auckland’s hands when
he selected the 19-year-old with
the Crusaders first draft selection
on Tuesday.
“Manasa is a potential superstar
for us. He’s a Nadolo-style
player who can be express pace
in the first five metres,” Robertson
said.
The lengths the Crusaders
went to bring Mataele to
Christchurch took the Fijian by
surprise, previously thinking he
was bound for the Blues.
“I didn’t know I was coming
here, I was supposed to go up
and join the Blues. I got a call
on Tuesday and they said congratulations,
were going to sign
you,” said Mataele.
There’s plenty of ties for
Mataele in Christchurch. His
partner lives here and another
Crusaders new signing, Chiefs
and All Black centre Seta Tamanivalu,
is the winger’s uncle.
Meanwhile, George Bridge
has been rewarded for a strong
debut provincial season with
Canterbury. After making his
way south from Gisborne to
join High School Old Boys

just over three years ago, the
21-year-old has now secured his
first Super Rugby contract.
“Razor (Scott Robertson)
rang me up on Friday night to
give me the news. Obviously,
I was stoked but I couldn’t
celebrate because we had the
Mitre 10 Cup final the next
day,” said Bridge.
Robertson is also high on
the winger who he says statistically
was Canterbury’s best
outside back during the Mitre
10 Cup.
The Crusaders begin preseason
training in December,
ahead of their opening game
against the Brumbies on February
25.

Big season expected
at Ruapuna Speedway
THIS SUMMER promises to be
one of the very best for Ruapuna
Speedway competitors and
enthusiasts, club president Allan
Daly says.
The 56th summer of speedway
at Ruapuna gets under way on Saturday
with the King of the Clay.
The centrepiece event of the
season is likely to be the 47th New
Zealand Sprintcar Championship
in January.
“We anticipate close on 40 entries
for this event,” Mr Daly said.
“With the championship allocations
being what they are, we
may not see this championship in
Christchurch for another six years.”
Although the crowd-pleasing V8
sprintcars feature prominently in
the 13-meeting race calendar, Mr
Daly said there would be something
for everyone.
“We are wrapped to be hosting
this summer’s South Island
Sidecar Championship,” he said.
“We have the South Island
Midget Car Championship and
the New Zealand Midget Grand
Prix, while the TQs, modified
sprints and six shooters will
all have plenty to race for this
summer.”
Ruapuna will also host two
rounds of the Hydraulink Sprintcar
War of the Wings series, as
well as the annual Gold Cup and
Salute to Goodie events.
“We are thrilled with the influx
of competitors in all classes, but I
think it’s fair to say that the sprintcars
really are thriving,” Mr Daly
said.
“We have had two top saloon
car drivers in Martin Harcourt
and Jackson Lovelady move across
into the sprintcars, as has former
national modified champion
Luke Keegan. Trevor Wishart
has shifted back across from
Australia and has looked sharp in
practices and, with 17 registered
Christchurch sprintcars, it’s a big
increase.”
The midget car class has also had
a couple of high profile ‘arrivals’
with former TQ standouts Scott
Bailey and Jeremy Webb moving
up.
No fewer than 17 midget cars
are currently contracted to the
Ruapuna track with last season’s
dominant drivers Dave Kerr, Tom
Lumsden, Gary Chadwick and
Glenn Everett likely to come under
some real pressure from the new
arrivals.
Daly was also upbeat about the
club’s future, with a stadium redevelopment
programme in place that
will see improvements to the track
over the next five years.

• By Ross Kiddie
QUIET, AS defined by the
Oxford Dictionary, is gentle
sound, and that could
certainly be said of Mazda’s
new CX-9.
The new seven-seat sport
utility vehicle is stealth-like
in its movement, hushed
and almost devoid of
sound; of course, there is
some audible presence, but
the CX-9 is certainly one
of the quietest vehicles I’ve
had the good fortune to
drive.
That doesn’t surprise me
because Mazda is extending
the boundaries of
automotive design, all of its
recent product has stood
out for engineering prowess,
that is backed up by
the number of awards the
company has received in
recent years, and the CX-9
explores that even further.
Not only is movement
in the CX-9 whisper quiet,
the engine has also been
developed so that it works
in the area where it is most
effective and efficient.
Forget about the 3-litre
V6 engine which used
to power the previousgeneration
CX-9, the newcomer
gets a turbocharged,
2.5-litre, four-cylinder unit
and it has been engineered
so that the torque pattern
delivers useful power low
in the rev band, the kind of
power you need for everyday
driving.
The engine is still redlined
at 6000rpm and that is
easily accessible, especially
so in sport mode, but there
is no need to go there, the
turbocharged boost arrives
at only 2000rpm and is
managed so that acceleration
is ushered in forcefully
from below that.
Peak power is rated at
a healthy 170kW and is
developed at just 5000rpm,
which is also low, thus
minimising the need to
explore the top end. Torque
is the most important
ingredient in any engine
and in the CX-9’s case
it pulls from absolutely
nowhere.
Other than the useful
acceleration benefits
(0-100km/h in 8.8sec),
an 8.4-litre per 100km
(34mpg) combined cycle
fuel usage average is also
claimed. That correlates
well to the 9.2l/100km
(31mpg) figure constantly
showing in the test car,
along with an amazing
5.7l/100km (49mpg)
instantaneous figure at
100km/h, the engine very
MAZDA CX-9: Engine designed to operate at low revs.
relaxed at 1900rpm.
These are extraordinary
figures for a vehicle which
weighs in excess of 1800kg,
and are indicative of the
development which has
gone into the SkyActive
range of engines which
power almost all of Mazda’s
current product.
It’s not just the fact that
the engine is so strong, nor
the fact that it does its job
without making a fuss that
makes the CX-9 so special,
this big family-friendly
wagon lands at just $52,995
for the entry-level frontwheel-drive
model.
• Price – Mazda CX-9
GSX, $52,995
• Dimensions –
Length, 5075mm;
width, 1969mm;
height, 1747mm
• Configuration –
Four-cylinder, frontwheel-drive,
2488cc,
170kW, 420Nm, sixspeed
automatic.
• Performance –
0-100km/h, 8.8sec
• Fuel usage –
8.4l/100km
An extra $2500 will buy
you into a four-wheel-drive
GSX while a range-topping
Limited lands at $62,995.
For me, I’d be more than
happy with the entrylevel
GSX, as tested, it is
beautifully-built and comes
with a substantial level of
fitment, much of which
is too comprehensive to
detail. Major features for
comfort and convenience
include satellite navigation,
full leather trim with
heated front seats, electric
front seat adjustment and,
of course, it gets a fivestar
Australasian New Car
Assessment Program safety
rating.
Special mention must be
made of the CX-9’s Bose
audio. It is a stunner, the
sound is rich and clear, and
I guess a lot of what makes
its clarity stand out is the
absence of road noise. If
you are a CX-9 buyer, ask
for the Bose USB flash
drive which has music
especially formulated to
enhance the audio’s characteristics.
In terms of the driveline,
power is directed through
a six-speed automatic
transmission, and it is a
beauty in terms of shift
refinement and seamless
gearing. As mentioned, the
engine wants to constantly
work low down so that
gear changes come early,
but such is the clever way
the power flow is managed
there is no drop in
performance. I barely used
the sport protocols, opting
instead for standard mode
which still offers flighty
engine operation if you
wish to be aggressive with
the accelerator.
While many SUV buyers
opt for four-wheel-drive,
and in the CX-9’s case that
is most affordable, the twowheel-drive
model would
suit me, it wants for nothing,
ride comfort and handling
aren’t compromised,
I took the test car on a
highway loop to Oxford.
When it came time to tackle
a few twists and turns,
I found the big SUV to be
capable and balanced in a
corner. For a large and tall
body the CX-9 feels more
athletic than I was expecting.
After a few months living
in a student flat my
daughter has shifted back
home and I used the
CX-9 to transport many
of her belongings back.
It’s that kind of versatility
that makes big SUVs so
popular. With the third
row of seats folded flat
the load area is cavernous
(810-litres), while the
seating configurations are
versatile.
It’s not often that I get so
enthusiastic about SUVs,
but the CX-9 is a class act.
It is right up there in terms
of luxury-like travel, and at
a price where it is hugely
competitive in a popular
part of the market. I can
see it easily being a market
segment front-runner.

Street Appeal
The exterior of your home is the first thing buyers
will see, so the property needs to look well kept
and inviting. Take a look at your place from the
street and see it through a buyer’s eyes! So… cut
the lawns, trim trees, plants and hedges, add some
garden lights and place a nice pot or plant by the
front door. Ensure the house exterior is cleaned
or freshened with new paint if necessary, hose
down drives, paths and fences, put stylish new
numbers on the house and perhaps buy a funky
new letterbox!
Make an Entrance
Even if your entrance or hallway is small you can
still give it some wow! A large mirror adds light
and makes an entrance look twice the size. Fresh
flowers, candles or a stylish piece of art create an
inviting first impression. Ensure floors are clean
whether timber, tiles or carpet.
Create Space
Light, air and space are 3 key factors in presenting
a home to best advantage. Open up curtains and
windows and use lamps and light fittings for mood
and ambience. Arrange furniture to maximize
space and remove items that make the room
appear cramped.
Fresh Feel
Freshen rooms with new paint if necessary but
aim for neutral tones which are more versatile for
buyers. Add a splash of colour in cushions, throws,
artwork or a vase of flowers. Invest in a new duvet
or bedspread and always make the bed!

Beautify the Bathroom
Replace or re-surface fittings if necessary, but
otherwise you can simply beautify your bathroom
with thorough and fastidious cleaning, thick
opulent towels, a tray of beautiful soaps and some
lush green plants. Invest in a new shower curtain

or laundry hamper and maybe a sleek modern
towel rail.
Clean Clean Clean
Cleaning is a mandatory part of selling your home:
have carpets, rugs and upholstery commercially
cleaned and sanitized, clean drapes and blinds

Place
polish glass and furniture, wash
down all surfaces and fittings in bathroom and
kitchen, clean all light fittings, wash windows inside
and out, deodorize your home to eliminate any
odours from pets, cooking or smoke.
Outdoor Spaces
Even a small patio, deck or terrace can be
enhanced with a café table and chairs. Add some
colourful accessories – placemats, candle lamps,
pots and plants and you have an extra living area.
If space is not limited, hang a hammock, string
some outdoor lights, position a garden sculpture
or create a water feature that buyers will love.
Hire a Handyman
Squeaking doors, dripping taps, cracked tiles,
broken fences, leaking toilets or appliances that
don’t work are a turn-off for buyers. If you can’t
repair or replace things yourself, then hire a
handyman to make sure everything in your home
works as it should.

THE ABBA Show jets in for a full national
tour this month, playing at the Isaac Theatre
Royal on Wednesday 9th November.
Following more than 4000 international
performances to date, including recent tours
of North America and South Africa, the
show’s NZ tour will take in an exhausting 22
different venues in just 34 days.
Far from being ‘just another cover band’,
The ABBA Show is a full-scale concert
experience and stage show featuring 2.5
hours of live musical performance with a
live band, replica costumes, theatrical
lighting and effects, and all the ABBA hits.
And despite Mamma Mia (the musical) still
doing the rounds, promoter John Van
Grinsven from Showtime Australia is
confident that fans will recognize the distinct
and worthwhile experience that The ABBA
Show offers.
“They’re completely different shows.
Mamma Mia is a great musical but The
ABBA Show does more of an authentic
concert experience. We’ve worked really
hard to make it just the way the fans will
remember it if they were lucky enough to
see the originals perform live. It really is a
SORRY, SHOW

unique show.”
The starring cast of the show -
comprising Brits Hannah Pocock as Agnetha
and Jenna Ball as Frida and Aussies
Cameron Charters as Bjorn and Brent
McMullen as Benny - has put in countless
hours to achieve the attention to detail that
the show is famous for.

THE music of Creedence Clearwater
Revival (CCR) remains as popular
today as it was when the group was
active from the late 60's to the early
70's. Despite their meagre career, the
American swamp country rockers left
a wealth of timeless hits.
On Saturday 19th November the
music of CCR will be celebrated at the
Hornby WMC by CCR tribute band,
Bad Moon Rising.
Made up of top North Island
musicians Ivan Glucina (guitar/vocals),
Grant Wills (lead guitar/backing
vocals), Dave Hartley (bass guitar), and
BOWYN ‘BOMAN’ MORGAN
v SHAUN COLMORE
Steve Tree (drums), Bad Moon Rising
deliver a convincing rendition of all the
hits such as ‘Born On The Bayou’,
‘Have You Ever Seen The Rain’, ‘Suzie
Q’, ‘Down On The Corner’, ‘Midnight
Special’, to name but a few!
Highly sought after on club circuits
and at festivals and events across the
country, Bad Moon Rising is busy
sharing the legacy of CCR’s music
across the country.
