Bid to
stop
Canty
bank
closures
• By Sophie Cornish and Georgia
O’Connor-Harding
RESISTANCE IS building in a
bid to stop the closure of Westpac
branches in Canterbury.
The bank has plans to close its
New Brighton, Sydenham and
Lincoln branches and is currently
consulting with staff.
Westpac says internet and
mobile phone banking, and
changing populations because of
the earthquakes, is the reason for
the plan.
A ommunity group in New
Brighton is fighting to stop the
potential closure of its Westpac
branch.
And Coastal-Burwood Ward
city councillor David East is
planning to get the backing of
Development Christchurch Ltd
to try and stop the New Brighton
closure.
DCL is a city councilowned
company charged with
reinvigorating New Brighton,
with an emphasis on creating
business.
Said Cr East: “It is a huge
disappointment to me to see
another banking institution
potentially moving out of New
Brighton.
“We are talking with Westpac
to see if we can get this decision
put off for a while longer until
such time when we can see if the
hot salt water pools and the business
reinvigoration will impact on
the business sector on this side of
town.”

THE WORLD is a quickly
changing place, faster than
anytime in human existence.
All businesses are threatened
in some way by the internet and,
in 10 years time, we will live in a
very different age to now.
On page 1 today, more Westpac
banks are likely to close,
effectively a casualty of internet
banking.
The planned bank closures
are a blow to the communities
they service, particularly for the
elderly who obviously rely less
on the internet.
There are plans to fight the
New Brighton closure and time
will tell whether it is effective.
I suspect not, unless the bank’s
rent is paid for.
On a more positive note,
Lianne Dalziel (see page 4) looks
like she will move to streamline
rebuild organisations like
Development Christchurch and
Regenerate Christchurch.
That is a smart and overdue
move. There’s been far too much
bureaucracy in the rebuild.
She and new re-build minister,
Megan Woods, look like an
effective team.

This day in history saw the

on November 21, 1865. The
complex of buildings was
architect B. W. Mountfort’s
masterpiece. He had survived
a professional disaster soon
after arrival in New Zealand
when his first building, a
church in Lyttelton, had proved in a SAFE Air Bristol freighter
structurally unsound and had to crash at Russley golf course.

21, 1957, four people were killed John Paul II, (the first head of

the Catholic Church) visited
the city. On the same day a year
later, the Trans Alpine express
train, designed specifically
for the tourist trade, began its
daily run from Christchurch to
Greymouth. On November 25,
1940, the Holmwood, en route
from the Chathams to Lyttelton,

Passengers and crew were taken
aboard the German ships, and
eventually made their way home
two months later.

ARTWORK FOR HOTEL
THree vibrant artworks have been
short-listed to brighten the wall
of the Ibis Hotel on Hereford St
– and you can decide what one is
the winner. The works have been
designed by local artists based on
ideas put forward by the public.
One shows flora and fauna, another
inspires people to take time to
breathe, while the third outlines the
rebuilding of the city. The design
that attracts the most support on
the city council’s Facebook page will
be chosen on Tuesday.

Edmond St or Edmonds St?
Council sure to rise on
missing ‘s’ in street name
• By Bridget Rutherford
CONCERNS WERE sure to rise
over the misspelling of a street
named after the man behind a
Kiwi kitchen icon.
The family of Thomas John
Edmonds, who founded the
Edmonds Sure to Rise baking
powder, has asked the
city council to change
Edmond St to Edmonds
St in Linwood.
The street was named
after T J Edmonds, but
somehow between 1886-
1893, the letter ‘s’ had
been removed.
To correct the name,
the city council has to
consult with the street’s
residents, because their
address would have to change.
The change would need to be
supported by at least 85 per cent
of them.
John Edmonds said he had
always presumed Edmond St was
named after his great-grandfather,
because it was next to where
the former factory was.
“I’d always been a bit disappointed
Edmond St seemed to be
misnamed.”
He said T J Edmonds was
inducted into the New Zealand
Business Hall of Fame in July,
which prompted him to get in
touch with the city council about
it.
“I think it is important that
they show that courtesy and
respect.”
Edmond St runs off Aldwins
Rd and sits next to the Edmonds
Factory Gardens.
T J Edmonds had the gardens
created around his factory, which
was built in 1923.
Although the iconic factory
was controversially
demolished in 1990,
it still appears on the
cover of the Edmonds
Cookery Book with the
iconic sunray motif
on it.
T J Edmonds was a
well-known philanthropist.
He built the Edmonds
Band Rotunda
in 1929.
He also partly, or fully funded,
several other buildings including
Kilmore St’s demolished Repertory
Theatre, the Clock Tower
on Oxford Tce, and the former
Theosophical Society building on
Cambridge Tce.
John Edmonds said the family
was “delighted” the city council
had committed to restoring
the earthquake-damaged band
rotunda.
Consultation on whether to
change the street name is expected
to be done early next year.
The Linwood-Central-Heathcote
Community Board would
then need to approve the change.

Final chance to remember Lancaster Park
GOT A photo of the U2 concert
at Lancaster Park back in 1989?
Or of you and your mates
watching cricket from the old
grass embankments?
The city council and Vbase
want people to share their photos
or illustrations of Lancaster Park
before it is demolished. The images
could feature on signage to
be put up around the site before,
and during, the demolition.
Vbase general manager Darren
Burden said the stadium had
hosted a number of concerts and
sports events.
“We’re sure plenty of these
magic moments will have been
caught on camera over the years,
or maybe people might like to
put pen to paper as a way of
remembering a special moment
they had at the stadium.”
All entries must be received by
December 22 and can be made
on the city council’s website.
Mr Burden said the demolition
would take about a year, beginning
in March. The signage was
hoped to be installed by mid-
February.
A number of items have been
salvaged from the stadium, such
as seats and memorabilia. So far,
8300 seats have been re-homed
across the country.

A symbol of the destructive

into storage. Gap Filler is building

the bridge into it. City councillors
will decide today whether to
approve the plan.
MORE PARK REPAIR DELAYS
The reopening of sports fields at
Carlton Mill has been delayed
until March due to poor weather.
The city council has been relevelling
the earthquake-damaged
ground and natural grass fields
were being built with irrigation
and drainage. It was meant to
be finished by now, but due to
“significant weather events”, the
opening has been pushed out to
March 14. Meanwhile, Sydenham
Park will be complete by February
12. Originally it was meant to be
finished before the end of the year.

UNCERTAIN FUTURE: The Westpac bank in New Brighton.
Bid to stop bank closures
•From page 1
However, Westpac spokewoman
Heather Shiels said: “Our
customers are increasingly using
technology for their banking
needs, which is resulting in fewer
branch transactions.”
Community group New
Brighton Project has set up a
facebook campaign to stop the
closure.
Ms Shiels said online transactions
have increased by 66 per
cent in five years while customers
using mobile-only devices have
increased from 24 to 39 per cent
in the last two years.
The earthquakes have also
played a role in the potential
closures, said Ms Shiels.
“Since the 2010 and 2011
earthquakes the region has
experienced significant shifts in
population, which have impacted
where people are living, working
and banking.”
First Union, which represents
bank staff, said it was “odd” for
the earthquakes to be used as a
reason for a branch to close particularly
in Lincoln.
“The stats quite clearly demonstrate
the population is growing
. . . we have been puzzled by it,”
southern region secretary Paul
Watson.
Lincoln’s population is projected
to grow to 9190 by 2025.
ASB recently set up a branch in
Lincoln.
First Union will meet with Westpac’s
senior officials and managers
in Auckland on Monday to discuss
the planned closures.
Westpac is looking to transfer
affected staff to other branches.
The bank is also opening a new
central city branch in March.
Merge organisations – Dalziel
• By Bridget Rutherford
DRAFT: Regenerate Christchurch is tasked with coming up
with a landscaping plan for Cathedral Square.
MAYOR LIANNE Dalziel
yesterday signalled more
shake-ups in the Christchurch
rebuild could be on the horizon.
Ms Dalziel said she wanted
to see Regenerate Christchurch
and Development Christchurch
Ltd merged within the next two
years.
It comes a day after new Minster
for Greater Christchurch
Regeneration Megan Woods
scrapped the preferred contractor
for the Metro Sport Facility
due to a $75 million budget blow
out, which had the backing of
Ms Dalziel.
“I want to see Regenerate
Christchurch and Development
Christchurch merged. I want
the focus of Otakaro to be the
delivery of the major anchor
projects that they have been
given control of, just get
on and do that,” she told
Newstalk ZB yesterday.
Regenerate Christchurch’s
main tasks are
coming up with plans
for the residential red
zone, Cathedral Square
as well as other pockets
in the city.
DCL deals with some of the
city council’s major capital projects,
such as revitalising New
Brighton, and provides a single
point of entry for investors and
developers.
Ms Dalziel (left) said
she wanted to speak to the
Government about merging
the two.
“If we combine their
resources, I think the city
would get a better outcome
and more quickly. I
think that if it turned itself into
more of a regeneration authority
or an urban development
authority, that would enable it
to utilise the legislation that it’s
been given by central Government.”
Ms Dalziel said she signalled
the move during her mayoral
campaign last year.
She said it was always
assumed the two would
merge after five years in
2021, but she wanted it done
sooner. It would require a
Government legislation change,
she said.

Mother of three found dead in bath

A WOMAN found dead in

to be mother of three Candyce

Her body was discovered in

investigation throughout the
morning, and at noon a hearse
arrived to take the body away.
Detective Senior Sergeant
Mike Ford said a post-mortem
is under way and that is all the
information they can release at
this stage.
The death was described as
‘unexplained’ yesterday morning.
Tributes for Ms Lewis, also
known as ‘Candy’, started to
flow on Facebook on Wednesday
afternoon.
One person posted: “R.I.P
candyce (sic) u will never be
forgotten xoxo.”
Another said: “RIP Candy gone
but never forgotten x.”
A friend and neighbour spread
rose petals over the driveway of
the property as a tribute to his
friend.
He described her as an
‘amazing mum’ who had a
‘massive heart of gold’.
The city council would be
asked if a mural could be painted
dedicated to her in the alleyway
beside her home, he said.
EAGLE-EYED pedestrians
have found something a bit
perplexing about some of the
city’s traffic light crossing
instructions.
It appears instructions on
what to do, well, cancelled
each other out.
At the the top of the
signal on the corner of
Colombo and Cashel Sts, it
directed people to ‘press the
button’.
But below the button it
said ‘please do not touch’.
Huh?
While some may have
thought the city council is
losing its marbles, it turns
out the stickers had been left
by persons unnamed.
Said Christchurch
Transport Operations
Centre manager Ryan
Cooney: “Council staff
have been made aware of
a number of stickers and
they were removed yesterday
(Tuesday).”

‘Insulting’ cartoons debated in court
• By Sam Hurley
TWO controversial newspaper
cartoons are “certainly insulting”
but whether the images breached
the Human Rights Act has
become a matter of legal debate.
Labour MP Louisa Wall is appealing
a Human Rights Tribunal
decision in the High Court at
Auckland this week which found
two Fairfax Media cartoons did
not promote racial disharmony
against Maori and Pacifika.
The cartoons by award-winner
Al Nisbet were published in
The Press on May 30, 2013, and
Marlborough Express the previous
day.
The images portrayed the
issue of the food in schools programme,
“a measure intended to
mitigate some of the worst consequences
of child poverty”, the
Human Rights Tribunal decision
from May reads.
The tribunal concluded that
although the cartoons were
insulting, they were not likely
to “excite hostility against or to
bring into contempt Maori and
Pacifika on the ground of their
colour, race, or ethnic or national
origins”.
Ms Wall took exception to the
images and claimed the cartoons
breached the Human Rights Act
by promoting racial disharmony.
Fairfax argues its cartoons
were consistent with the Bill of
Rights, which affords every New
Zealander the right to freedom
of expression, including the freedom
to seek, receive, and impart
information and opinions of any
kind in any form.
Justice Matthew Muir said at
an initial hearing on November
1 that he wanted a panel to
preside over the case, after
expressing “some reservations”
about whether he held superior
qualifications to the members of
the Human Rights Tribunal.
He said he was “very, very
wary” and given the “huge public
implications” and interest of
what is a test case.
Justice Muir said the panel was
tasked with “looking afresh” at
the question of whether there
is a breach of section 61 of the
Human Rights Act. Section 61
outlines the unlawfulness for any
person to publish or distribute
material that is threatening,
abusive, or insulting and likely to
excite hostility against or bring
into contempt any group of persons
in, or who may be coming
to New Zealand, on the grounds
of the colour, race, or ethnicity
or national origins.
However, the legislation
also reads that it shall not be a
breach of the law if a newspaper,
magazine, or broadcast report
accurately conveys the intention
of the person who published or
distributed the matter or broadcast
or used the words.
“No-one is contending that the
advertisements were not insulting,
we certainly all regard them
as insulting,” Justice Muir said.
“Are there particularly feebleminded
people or bigoted people
out there that would find these
[cartoons] incite hostility and
contempt?”
Ms Wall’s counsel Prue Kapua
said the issue was not about the
cartoonist, but the depiction of
Maori and Pacifika as “welfare
bludgers and negligent parents”
who spent their money on gambling
and smokes.
However, Justice Muir said
that the tribunal’s decision
showed New Zealand was a
society that encouraged a free
market of ideas in a socially
liberal and tolerant country.

Canterbury retirees among most
Canterbury’s retirees
are some of the
most active in the

also looks at what
sports Cantabrians

EVERY WEDNESDAY morning
a group of cyclists meet at The
Princess Margaret Hospital car
park, jump on their bikes and
head to Tai Tapu.
They call themselves the
Magpies.
Some are doctors on their day
off from work, others are nurses
or mums. But most are retirees.
Graeme Milner and Roy
Pemberton started the group
about 20 years ago. It has grown
to have more than 50 members.
Mr Milner, a veteran cyclist
who represented New Zealand
in 1964, said he loved it for the

age is no barrier and anyone is

Sport Canterbury’s draft
Spaces and Places Report which
looked at sport in the region

Young retirees aged 65-75

Twenty-seven per cent cycled,
19 per cent played golf, 10 per
cent did aquarobics, while six per

Mr Milner said he thought
more retirees were getting into
cycling because it was good to
stay healthy. Once the group got
to Tai Tapu they stopped for a
coffee and a chat, he said.
Jeff Greenep, 80, agreed. He
cycles about four times a week.
He said he has been doing it
since he was a kid.
Cycling was the second most
popular activity for those aged 16
and over. The most popular was
walking, at 67 per cent.
That was followed by cycling
with 36 per cent and swimming
at 33 per cent.
Twenty-four per cent did
equipment-based exercise, such
as going to the gym, while 20 per
cent went running.
Cricket and hunting rounded
out the top 20, with about six per
cent taking part in both.
For five to 10-year-olds who
were surveyed, swimming was
the most popular activity at 90
per cent, followed by biking,
athletics, gymnastics and cross
country.
In the 11-14 and 15-18 age
brackets, running took top spot,
followed by swimming, athletics,
basketball and biking.

active, major sports report shows
The draft Spaces and Places
Report was prepared by Sport
Canterbury to outline the current
and planned sporting facilities
following the September 2010
and February 2011 earthquakes.
As part of the report, it looked
at how each code was impacted
following the quakes.
Sports such as tennis, athletics,
bowls, golf, squash, cricket and
surf life saving had seen a decline
in memberships.
Meanwhile, badminton,
football, hockey, netball, rowing,
rugby, league, swimming, touch
and waterpolo had gone the other
way.
Certain sports with less
facilities were analysed and
interviewed to see what
developments were under way
and how they had been impacted
following the quakes.
Swimming appeared to be the
worst hit because facilities such
as QE II and Centennial Pool,
were damaged or destroyed after
the quakes.
In 2010 the swimming
membership was 1565. That
dropped to 387 in 2011.
In 2016 there were 1585
registered swimmers, back up to
pre-quake levels, although that

only included those who were
members, not people who went
for leisurely swims.
Planning and construction of
aquatic facilities were under way,
such as Eastern Recreation and
Aquatic Facility and the South
West Leisure Centre in Hornby.
However, the Metro Sport
Facility’s future is unclear,
after new Minister for Greater
Christchurch Regeneration
Megan Woods on Tuesday
announced the Government
would scrap the preferred
contractor to get it back on track.
It came after a “thorough
review” found the budget had
blown out by $75 million. A
review would be done to see what
the options were, which could
include combining it with the
proposed multi-use arena.
The report said bowls had also
taken a hit.
The sport had 3206 members
last year – 70 per cent of the
number it had in 2010.
Rowing had grown to 987
last year, league had been
stable, while tennis had steadily
declined in membership to 6063
last year.
Volleyball had suffered due to

lack of playing space, the report
said, and yachting and BMX had
remained relatively stable.
Meanwhile, football
registrations had steadily
increased over the past decade.
Last year, there were 13,855.
Currently, Mainland Football’s
base is at ASB English Park. But
there have been discussions about
moving it to the soon to be built
Nga Puna Wai.
A gap was identified for
speed skating facilities. The
current Alpine Ice Sports and
Entertainment Centre does not
have a full size rink so it could
not hold national championships.
Hockey had a membership
of 4507 last year. But the report
said it was limited by turf
availability.
Currently, teams are able to
play at Nunweek and Marist
Parks, as well as Waimakariri
Hockey Turf in Rangiora.
Nga Puna Wai will have two
artificial turfs when it opens next
year.
The facility was part of a list of
planned or proposed facilities for
Christchurch.
It joined the the multi-use

the Christchurch Squash Club
upgrade at The Cashmere Club,
the Eastern Sport and Recreation

in Wigram, and Celebration

Those proposed included a

Fire rages, homes at risk
Ballantynes survivors uncanny
The 70th-anniversary
of the Ballantynes fire
was last weekend.
Reporter Bridget
Rutherford speaks
to two survivors who
have had an uncanny
reunion
LOIS WHEELER and Marion
Hooykaas have been going to
card making classes together for
a decade near their Parklands
homes.
But it took another eight years
for the friends to discover they
shared another thing in common
– both had escaped New
Zealand’s worst fire tragedy.
Forty-one people perished.
Mrs Hooykaas said it was unbelievable
she and Mrs Wheeler
took so long to click.
“It was really because being
together for so long and only
finding out then, it was strange.”
Mrs Hooykaas said she
had been at class discussing a
controversial book about the
Ballantynes fire written by
Steven Eldred-Grigg, when Mrs
Wheeler piped up and said she
was in the fire too.
“She’d been sitting next to me
for so long.”
Mrs Wheeler, who was 22 at
the time, was working as a shorthand
typist, while Mrs Hooykaas
was a 17-year-old apprentice
tailoress. Many of their friends
and colleagues died.
Mrs Wheeler, now 92, said
every year, she can recall down to
SURVIVORS: Lois Wheeler, 92, and Marion Hooykaas, 87, both escaped the Ballantynes fire on
November 18, 1947, although they did not meet until years later. PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER
the minute what happened that
fateful November 18, 1947, day.
At 3pm she was having afternoon
tea with a friend who
worked in the china department.
Twenty minutes later, they both
went back to work. Mrs Wheeler
never saw her friend again.
She said staff did not know
the danger they were in when a
fire broke out in the cellar of one
of the store’s eight central city
buildings at about 3.30pm.
“Ballantynes was Ballantynes,
and nothing could ever happen
to Ballantynes.”
She said initially, her boss had
been instructed to tell staff to
keep working.
But they later evacuated onto
Lichfield St, only to go back
into the building three times to
collect typewriters and filing
cabinets.
“We were like sheep. We were
only doing it because our boss
was doing it.”
The last time she went upstairs,
the ceiling started coming down
and they ran down the stairs to
safety, she said.
“The whole thing [building]
combusted and was going up in
flames and the roof was gone.
Because I got out, I thought everybody
else had.”
Mrs Hooykaas said when the
fire started, they were told to
evacuate and take their scissors.
Mrs Hooykaas said they must
have been some of the last to get
out.
Both went back to work at Ballantynes
shortly after the tragedy
in temporary facilities nearby.
Mrs Wheeler stayed for a few
years before moving to Hay’s
for more money. Mrs Hooykaas
stayed until she was 23, when she
got engaged.
Ballantynes, the city council and
Fire Service were criticised for the
disaster, during a Royal Commission
inquiry into the blaze.
But neither Mrs Wheeler or
Mrs Hooykaas feel any anger.
They still shop at Ballantynes.
“When I hear a siren the hair
goes up on the back of my neck.
It is as though it’s back to the
Ballantynes fire,” Mrs Wheeler
said.
The cause of the fire was
never determined. The Royal
Commission recommended
changes to fire prevention and
firefighting, including evacuation
drills and the installation of fire
alarms.

meeting decades after blaze
Typewriters, adding machines
and company records were put in
a safe strongroom by some of the
people killed.
The inquiry found they were
probably following orders which
wasted “vital time” in escaping
the inferno.
There was no evacuation plan.
Evacuation orders were made by
individual department heads.
There was even evidence of
some staff returning from their
afternoon tea being sent back to
work upstairs after smoke had
been seen.
“Thousands of horror-stricken
spectators saw two [other] girls
leap from a third-floor window
and crash on a ladder and
veranda,” the Press Association
reported at the time.
“From there, unconscious, they
were dragged by firemen. Their
condition in hospital is satisfactory.”
At least 680 people were in
Ballantynes at the time of the
fire – 430 staff and 250
customers.
Recalls Mrs Hooykaas: “Our
boss came in and he said that he
was getting us out. “One of the
old tailors stood at the door, held
the door open and he said: ‘Take
your scissors because you can’t
replace them’.”
It was after the war and it was
hard to get scissors.
“He said: ‘Just pick up your
scissors and go’. We did. We took
our pay too – it was in our bags. I
had a blazer; I left that.
“We were quite calm when we
went out of the room, but when
we got down to the stairs to the
cafeteria that’s when you kept
saying: ‘Hurry up’; they were
walking so slowly, but it was
dark.”
Earlier they had stood at the
windows and waved in reply to
a man waving from across the
street. He later told them that the
roof had collapsed soon after.
Ballantynes comprised
eight buildings covering about
4000 sq m between Colombo,
Cashel and Lichfield Sts.
Some of the buildings and
their basements were connected

by unauthorised openings. Fire
protections were inadequate.
Stairwells and lift shafts acted
like chimneys, drawing hot gases
into the upper areas, which rose
to three levels above the ground
floor.
Although the cause of the fire
was never established, it is known
to have started in a basement at
around 3.30pm. A female employee
had noticed smoke. There
was a delay in calling firefighters,
who arrived at 3.47pm; they were
poorly equipped for the coming
conflagration.
Just before 4pm, the fire erupted
in a flashover of hot gases. At
4.10pm Kenneth Ballantyne, a
joint managing director, was the
last person to escape. He climbed
out a widow and scrambled down
a ladder.
Window panes broke, flames
shot out and a cloud of black
smoke rose high above the
buildings. Some 200 firefighters
battled the blaze, using 20 fire
engines.
In a 1997 television
documentary, Scorched
Memories, witnesses told of the
heartache of seeing people at the
windows.
“I spotted my father in the
people at the window,” said Alf
Brown. “I whistled out to him but
couldn’t get his attention.”
At a roll call in the evening at
the city’s King Edward Barracks
to work out who was still missing,
Mr Brown saw a Ballantynes
manager.
“He pointed at me and said
‘That’s Alec Brown’s son’. That’s
when I knew that Dad was dead.”

Wedding bells beckon for fourth time
Fire rages, homes at risk
• By Bridget Rutherford
LEANNE Crawford has had to
put off her wedding three times
because of a crippling illness.
But she will finally marry her
partner of more than eight years,
Craig Corboy, next week in a
wedding almost completely organised
by the Canterbury Bowel
and Liver Trust.
Ms Crawford has Crohn’s
disease and endometriosis. She
began feeling ill in 2014.
For months she could barely
walk, lost 30kg and was constantly
sick. She had to stop
working and postponed her
wedding three times because she
kept having to go to hospital.
It took almost two years for a
diagnosis, and tools donated by
the trust helped doctors find a
treatment – so she wanted to give
back when she felt better.
In March she walked in The
Star City2Surf 14km event with
about 40 others to raise more
than $4300 for the trust.
As a result, the trust wanted
to help her by organising her
wedding.
Ms Crawford said she and Mr
Corboy will marry next Saturday
in their Rangiora garden where
he proposed. The reception will
be held at West Eyreton Hall.
Her family will arrive from the
United Kingdom on Saturday.
Bowel and Liver Trust general
manager Margaret Fitzgerald
had helped organise the wedding
and would prepare food for it as
well, Ms Crawford said.
Kim Chan Events donated
flowers, would set up the hall
and hired the equipment for free,
while Christchurch Football
Club had given the plates and
cutlery for the reception.
Shirley Worthington and John
Brown were travelling from
Timaru to do the catering, while
Sharon Richards was icing the
wedding cake.
TRIUMPH: Leanne
Crawford and Craig
Corboy took part in
The Star City2Surf
earlier this year to
raise money for the
Canterbury Bowel
and Liver Trust,
and now the trust
has organised their
wedding.
Because Ms Crawford had
lost so much weight, she said
Ms Fitzgerald, along with Karen
Farthing had taken in her dress.
Wedding Professionals, Lisa
Marie Parable Photography,
Boogie Beats and celebrant Jane
Godfrey had stuck with the
couple even after they had to
postpone several times, she said.
Entire Electrical had donated
money and family and friends
had helped with other aspects.
Ms Crawford said she never
expected so many people to
donate and offer to help get her
up the aisle.
“We are blown away with
the generosity especially from
people we have never met, we
just want to say a huge thank you
to everyone from the bottom off
our heart, we couldn’t have done
it with out you all.”
Ms Crawford said she will take
part in the City2Surf again on
March 18 to raise more money
for the trust, and encouraged
others to sign up.
Although she cannot eat solid
food, Ms Crawford said she was
feeling better and walks about
7km every day.
“My biggest support is my
lovely husband-to-be and I can’t
wait to be his wife.”
•The Star City2Surf will take
place on March 18. Early bird
entries will be available from

Compostable
food packaging
at city events
• By Bridget Rutherford
THIRTY Christchurch events are
likely to use compostable food
packaging after a successful trial
saw more than 12 tonnes diverted
from landfill earlier this year.
The city council wants to run
Composting Food Packaging at
Events Trial 2.0 at 12 of its major
events over the next 18 months.
They would join 21 other privately-run
events.
For the second trial to go ahead
the city council is seeking $29,553
from the Canterbury waste joint
committee at its meeting tomorrow.
The funding would be used to
operate the initiative at the city
council-run events, which includes
waste sorters who are on site to
separate the compostable packaging
from other rubbish.
The second trial would include
the city council’s upcoming New
Year’s Eve event, Kite Day, Sparks,
Christchurch Lantern Festival,
KidsFest Lantern Parade, Botanic
D’lights, Heritage Week, Guy
Fawkes, and New Year’s Eve
2018.
Kite Day 2019, Sparks 2019 and
Christchurch Lantern Festival 2019
would also be included.
Quake theory criticised
NEW ZEALAND earthquake
scientists have been critical of a
theory from two United States’
scientists that the frequency
of earthquakes is linked to a
slowing in Earth’s rotation, one
saying “I tend to think of them
in the context of [Moon Man]
Ken Ring”.
Last month, Roger Bilham,
from the University of
Colorado at Boulder,
and Rebecca Bendick,
from the University of
Montana, presented a paper at
a conference that posited that
a year with a high number of
earthquakes around the world
coincided with a slowing in the
rotation of the Earth.
“A striking example is that
since 1900 more than 80 per
cent of all earthquakes on
the eastern Caribbean plate
boundary have occurred five
years following a maximum
deceleration (including the 2010
Haiti earthquake).”
The paper concludes that
2017 marks six years since
deceleration began in 2011,
“suggesting that the world
has now entered a period
of enhanced global seismic
productivity with a duration of
DESTRUCTION: Two United States’ scientists say the
frequency of earthquakes is linked to a slowing of the
Earth’s rotation. (Right) – New Zealand author Ken Ring who
writes about moon phases and the weather.
at least five years.”
GNS Science have commented
that the paper has not been
peer-reviewed and has no detail
to examine, while Dr Virginia
Toy from the Department of
Geology at the University of
Otago says correlations are
often made between natural
events and other phenomena.
“Some of these yield
statistically defendable
correlations; others don’t,” she
said.
“I tend to think of them in
the context of Ken Ring . . . the
man who writes about apparent
statistical correlations between
the phase of the moon and the
weather.
“[The Americans’ paper]
sounds like we will get a jump
from six to 20 large earthquakes
per year. I don’t think this is
likely.”
Dr Tim Stahl, a lecturer
in tectonic geology from
Canterbury University, says it is
difficult to judge the scientific
merit of the claims being made
until additional testing is
carried out by other research
groups.

Fire rages, homes at risk
Higher fines fail to deter litter bugs
• By Bridget Rutherford
A NEW graduated scale to fine
people for littering has failed to
deter people from doing it.
The city council changed the
rules in June last year by introducing
a new graduated scale
for fines, depending on the type
and amount of rubbish dumped.
In the past, the maximum fine
was $100. That increased to $400
under the new rules.
But figures released under the
Local Government and Official
Information Act show of the 389
litter and roadside litter complaints
the city council received
since the rule changes, just two
fines were issued.
Both of those were $200 fines.
A city council spokeswoman
said the number of complaints
remained consistent with previous
years.
“One of the constraints of the
Litter Act is that the council
officer must personally witness
the offence and/or be able to
identify the person committing
the offence to be able to issue an
infringement notice,” she said.
“Therefore, the level of
infringements issued is low in
comparison to the number of
complaints.”
The new system had five tiers.
Less than 1-litre of rubbish
dropped would be a $100 fine,
between one to 20-litres was
a $200 fine, 20-120-litres was
$300, while more than 120-litres
or hazardous, offensive or commercial
material was $400.
City council head of regulatory
compliance Tracey Weston
said the maximum fine of $400
was intended to be a greater
deterrent.
She said nearly all the complaints
were received after the
litter had been found.
“This means that there is little,
if any, evidence of the identity
of the person responsible for the
dumping,” she said.
“There is little the council can
do to increase the number of
fines issued due to the evidential
challenges around establishing
the identity of the offender.”
Ms Weston said the city
DUMPED:
Higher fines
have failed to
deter people
from dumping
their rubbish in
public places,
like here in
South Brighton
Domain.
council spent about $120,000 in
the last financial year removing
rubbish that had been dumped.
The residential red zone had
been a hot spot for dumping
after the February 22, 2011,
earthquake.
The city council had not issued
any infringement notices
in the years leading up to the
rule changes due to a “change in
personnel.”
Online services
at council in
for overhaul
• By Bridget Rutherford
RESIDENTS WILL soon be able
to book, apply, request and pay for
more city council services online as
part of a major system overhaul.
The city council is developing
a new system called My Council,
which would be part of its website.
It will take three years to
complete, and is currently in the
first phase.
City council citizens and
community general manager Mary
Richardson said My Council was
programme of work designed to
give residents choice for the services
it provided.
The digitalisation of its services
was at the core of the programme,
she said.
“This means citizens will have
more visibility over the things that
matter to them, whether it’s rates,
rubbish, dog registration, building
consents, consultation or something
else.
“We want to increase self-service
so people can easily book, apply,
request and pay for our services
online anywhere and at any time.
We also want to create new and
innovative ways for citizens to
engage with us,’’ she said.

Sports facility cost creates
a ‘window of opportunity’
WHEN THE new minister,
Hon Megan Woods, contacted
me about the true cost of
proceeding with the early
contractor involvement process
for our long-awaited Metro
Sports Facility, I already knew
that they were going to be
receiving advice along the lines
that they did. And that was $75
million over budget.
I was not at all surprised when
the incoming Government said
‘enough is enough’. I would
too if it were our decision as a
council.
The cost sharing agreement
caps the city’s contribution to
the Metro Sports Facility at $147
million, which is still an eye
watering sum of money.
When the minister said that
it was going to take a few short
months for a build contract to
go to tender, I was really pleased.
For me, this has created a
‘window of opportunity’, where
we as a city can look at what
we really need, and to get the
different sporting codes together
to double-check that what was
driving decisions five years ago
is still relevant today.
No-one will be surprised by
my attitude to this, as I have
always said that a flaw in the
blueprint approach was the
lack of a feedback loop once the
blueprint was announced. It was
as if it was set in stone and yet,
as I said, what may have been
the case five-years ago, may not
be now.
This window of opportunity
will give the city that feedback
loop we have needed and enable
us to think about the different
elements of the Metro Sports
Facility and the multi-use arena,
as well as some of our existing
facilities.
What is the potential, for
example, at the Horncastle
Arena when we build what
would be the largest covered
arena in the country?
Lianne Dalziel
Five years later, should we
revisit some of the co-location
arguments with the relevant
sporting codes at the table?
We have been given this
moment in time where
everything can be examined
without further delays.
What excites me is the
possibility that we could end up
speeding things up and reducing
overall costs, while providing
the city with the sporting and
event infrastructure it needs –
now and for future generations.
That’s the win-win I will be
looking for.

Dalziel a question, email

The $75m budget
blowout for the Metro
Sports Facility, which was
to be built in the area
bordered by Moorhouse

Jane Wilson-Fouracre
– Unbelievable, even after all
this time and money it’s back to
the drawing board. Let’s finally
get a decent sports facility in a
location that is near to transport
links, on decent land and has
space for parking. Only city

Fire rages, homes at at risk
Woods determined to fix $75m blowout
LIKE MOST Cantabrians, I’m
very keen to see faster progress
in our central city. The sight
of big vacant lots where major
new facilities are meant to have
been built by now simply isn’t
good enough. It’s something I’m
determined to fix.
That’s why one of the very
first pieces of work I’ve started
as a new minister has been a
thorough line-by-line review
of the Anchor Projects. I want
to ensure these projects can be
delivered faster, with timelines
we can trust, in a manner we can
afford. This review has already
thrown up some real issues.
The biggest of these was the
discovery of a $75 million budget
blowout on the Metro Sports
Facility – a facility that is already
years behind schedule. As an
incoming minister, finding out
the previous Government knew
about this blowout since July was
very disappointing.
I know most Cantabrians will
agree that when a budget blows
out by $75 million, you can’t
keep writing blank cheques with
taxpayers’ money, especially
when the project keeps being
delayed. It’s worth remembering,
under the last Government’s
timeline, the facility was meant
to open in the first part of last
year – yet all we have at the moment
is another big empty space
in our central city.
Any suggestion we could ignore
this blowout is nonsense. If
we had continued on the previous
Government’s path, I would
have had to go back to Cabinet
and ask for taxpayers to keep
reaching into their pockets.
That’s why the decision was
made to cancel the early contractor
involvement process, and
direct Ōtākaro to finish the design
work themselves, then go to
market to complete the construction
of the building. This will
give us an option to deliver the
project within the budget set by
the previous Government.
I’ve also asked officials to use
that time to conduct an urgent
review of the plans for the
facility. We need to check if the
assumptions made about this
project in 2012 still hold up five
years later, or if there might be
better, quicker ways to deliver
the sporting facilities that Canterbury
needs.
After years of delays, this new
Government’s priority is getting
things happening – breaking
down the roadblocks and getting
the projects we need back on
track.

Heather Andersen and
Mitch MacDonald (right)

New Zealand but The Star
revealed they are not so
“awful” after all
Vanessa Henry – I got to
meet them both at an event last
week.
They were really down to
earth, funny and pretty genuine
sort of people. Funny thing is on
the show they actually give fair
scores backed up with genuine
reasons for the scores they give.
Pretty noticeable that not all of
the teams do this.
David Lindsay – Easy
answer . . . don’t put yourselves
on reality TV, it’s happened to
those before you and it will keep
happening, no sympathy.
Nic Davies – I like them.
Bugger to hear what was said to
them but if you go in a show like
that you have to expect this.
Kim Johanson – If that’s
how you portray yourself on TV,
expect backlash.
Only 55 percent of fines
issued to freedom campers
were paid, according to city
council staff
Krysha Wells – That’s
because they are going (and)
they do not care, maybe it is time
to stop them at the airport on the
way out?
Candice Johnson –
Passport info should be taken,
and should be flagged if they
try and leave without paying.
Tourists are having a laugh at
how soft NZ is.
Pete Hustwick – It’s all
really quite simple.
You clamp them. And when
the fine is paid in full in cash,
then they can get under way
again. It would only take a few
for the word to get around.
We are way too nice in this
country.
Tiffany Cavanaugh – We
can’t leave the country without
paying our fines, tourists
shouldn’t be able to either.
Police say the seizure of
49kg of methamphetamine
with a street value of $50
million was the largest bust
in the South Island
Mary Baycroft – Great work
Christchurch police. Keep that
off our streets.
Kim Brown – Good job. I
hate this drug with a passion and
I personally love the fact that it
won’t be hitting our streets. And
hope the mongrels that tried
to import it into our beautiful
country get sent down for a very
long time.
Kevin Garty – Excellent work
police. Now please court system,
put these guys away for a very
long time and go after every asset
they have.

Fire rages, homes at risk
Bid to reunite family with soldier’s WW1 relic
• By Kurt Bayer
AN ENGLISHMAN who
uncovered a Cantabrian’s
battlefield identification note
rolled inside a World War I
bullet casing is attempting to
reunite the rare artefact with the
old soldier’s descendants.
David Murray was holidaying
near Ypres, Belgium, about 40
years ago when he bought a box
of mixed WW1 memorabilia.
It included a German cartridge
case and bullet that has sat in a
drawer at his Manchester home
for decades.
But last year, he took a closer
look at the bullet case and found
a piece of paper coiled inside it.
After several hours, with the
aid of medical tweezers, he
managed to extract the note
which read: ‘Gunner E. A.
Kermode - Headquarters Staff
N.Z.F.A. 7/2058 France’.
Mr Murray understands that
even with the issue of ‘dog tags’,
many soldiers put personal
details inside things like
cartridge cases for identification
purposes if they were killed.
Now, he wants to trace gunner
Kermode’s descendants to return
the item to its rightful home.
“His grandsons could still
be alive and well and, if I was
his grandson, then I’d be very
pleased to get that,” Mr Murray
said.
Edward Arthur Kermode
was born at Isle of Man in the
Irish Sea in 1895. His mother,
a Mrs Goulding, came from
the Devonshire market town of
Honiton.
At the outbreak of war in 1914,
gunner Kermode was working as
an engineer in Christchurch.
A year later, the 20-year-old
bachelor, with the stature of a
jockey, standing at 160cm and
weighing just 55kg, enlisted.
He left with the New Zealand
Field Artillery and served in
Egypt and France.
Having survived the war, he
returned to Christchurch and
was discharged in 1919, the war
War ID: Edward
Arthur Kermode
survived World
War 1 and now
an Englishman
who found a
relic of his from
the war is trying
to trace his
descendants.
records show.
Mr Murray says he’d happily
send the bullet casing and note
to New Zealand if the rightful
owners came forward.
“If it was in an antiques shop,
it’d probably be a couple of
quid,” he told the NZ Herald.
“But I’ve got quite a strong
sense of social and family history
and I hate it when people throw
things away that are a piece of
personal history. It’d be better
than just lying in a drawer here.”
The Herald contacted Alastair
Kermode who lives at Lincoln.
Last year, he visited Ypres and
was interested in whether any
of his forefathers fought on the
Western Front.
He doubted any family links
to the gunner Kermode he
saw listed on the battlefield
memorials.
But, when talking to
the Herald, he wondered whether
Edward Arthur Kermode was
related to him, given that his
family history information says
they also emigrated from the Isle
of Man.
“It’s possible. My grandfather,
with I think 13 kids in the
family, all came out here from
Isle of Man,” Kermode said.
He wanted to ask other
relatives and hunt for “concrete
evidence” of a link to the
WW1 veteran, but was interested
in talking further with Mr
Murray.
•Anyone with information
or suspected family links to
Edward Arthur Kermode can

Fire rages, homes at risk
Mental as Anything for Selwyn Sounds
Audience
can expect
friendship and
silliness from
Aussie rockers
• By Julia Evans
DURING A Mental as Anything
gig in 1978, Andrew McArthur
demolished an entire box of KFC
chicken, 16 pieces. “No trouble,”
he said.
He’s had the nickname Greedy
Smith ever since.
McArthur and his fellow
Mental as Anything bandmates
will be flying from Sydney, set to
play Selwyn Sounds on March 3.
The festival at Lincoln Domain
follows last year’s event, which
saw a star studded list of Kiwi
acts perform in front of about
8000 people.
But this year’s Selwyn
Sounds has added a couple of
Australians to the bill. Mental as
Anything are joined by Jimmy
Barnes.
Although Mental as Anything
still has a bit of a New Zealand
connection. “Until 2000 we had
two Kiwis in the band,” he said.
AUSSIE ROCKERS: Mental as Anything are ready to play
alongside fellow Australian Jimmy Barnes at Selwyn Sounds.
Chris and Peter O’Doherty
were part of the band playing
lead guitar and bass from when
it formed 41 years ago in 1976
– the brothers were born in
Auckland but moved to Sydney
before they were teenagers.
McArthur said they’re both
full-time visual artists now.
“There wouldn’t be an
Australian music industry if
you took away all the Kiwis,”
he said. “It’s cross-cultural
pollination.”
That pollination even includes
McArthur’s girlfriend who was
born in Christchurch. So he said
the band always looks forward to
a trip across the ditch.
“I’ve got the loveliest memories
of touring with The Exponents
… we did a great show in
Christchurch with them,” he
said.
McArthur promised Selwyn
Sounds would be no different.
Although he did have one
piece of advice: “Pack your
sunscreen.”
During the March set
audiences can expect “a bit
of friendship” and “a bit of
silliness.”
“People will be really surprised
at how much of our stuff they
know. We play songs people
will like and try to win over the
punter.”
Mental as Anything has spent
a lot of time “polishing the old
stuff” in preparation.
“We’re always playing. In 40
years, the last time I had six
weeks off was 1990 when I fell
off a horse,” McArthur said.
But the band has such an
impressive back catalogue,
McArthur said the music he’s
currently listening to is Mental
as Anything. Just so he can
remember the songs.
“It’s been 40 years since we
wrote some of it. You forget,” he
said.
But even though the band has
been together for more than four
decades, Mental as Anything
is still releasing new music.
Its latest work 5 Track EP was
released earlier this year.

TEST: Stellar are set to re-unite for Selwyn Sounds in March at Lincoln Domain.
Group to reunite for
Lincoln music festival
• By Julia Evans
BOH RUNGA has just opened her own
jewellery store in Ponsonby, Auckland.
But on March 3 she’ll be getting Stellar
back together and heading to Lincoln
Domain for Selwyn Sounds.
The day-long music festival follows this
year’s inaugural event, which saw Kiwi
music heavyweights the Jordan Luck Band,
Mi-Sex and Dragon play to a crowd of
about 8000.
Growing up in Hornby with sister Bic,
Runga said she hadn’t spent much time in
the small town but had been to several of
Lincoln University’s notorious parties.
“My father went to Lincoln College but I
just went to parties,” she said.
She’s looking forward to playing so close
to home, she said “people are always happy
you’ve come to play.”
But Stellar isn’t officially back together.
The March festival could be a bit of a test,
Runga hasn’t ruled out a full reunion.
“I’m not sure if we are back together per
se, we are doing some gigs and we always
had fun doing that. We’ll see where us
hanging out again leads,” Runga said.
Alongside a reunited Stellar, fans will
get the chance to see Jimmy Barnes, The
Mockers and The Feelers.
In the meantime, she said if you’re in
Auckland, head down Ponsonby Rd to Boh
Runga Jewellery: “I’ll probably be there!”
•Selwyn Sounds will be held on
March 3 at Lincoln Domain from
11am-8.30pm. Tickets available at

Dyers Pass Rd speed
limit may come down
• By Sarla Donovan
GOVERNORS BAY
resident Rosie Belton is
pleased the Dyers Pass
Rd speed limits could be
lowered to 60km/h.
The well-known
author has been a vocal
campaigner on road safety
issues, including speeding
vehicles and boy racer
activity in Governors Bay.
The city council is
currently seeking public
feedback on a proposal
to change the speed limit
on Dyers Pass Rd, from
its intersection with
Governors Bay Rd to the
Sign of the Takahe.
Currently the speed limit
along that stretch
of the road varies
between 50km/h
and 100km/h.
Under the
proposal put
forward the
variable speed
limits would be
changed to one
consistent speed
limit of 60km/h.
Ms Belton said it
was “fantastic” news.
“That’ll be brilliant. But
I expect lots of people
will complain, including
locals,” she said.
Rosie Belton
DANGER: A lower speed limit is expected to reduce
the number of crashes on Dyers Pass Rd.
About 180 accidents have
been recorded over the past
decade along that stretch of
Dyers Pass Rd, resulting in
one fatality and 14
serious injuries.
“Loss of
control due to
inappropriate
speeds into
bends and risky
overtaking account
for a concerning
number of the
reported accidents,’’ said
city council transport
operations manager Aaron
Haymes.
“To improve safety we
are proposing a new speed
limit of 60km/h. We are
also proposing to add
double yellow no passing
lines and two new slow
vehicle bays.’’
Mr Haymes says the
aim of the double yellow
lines was to keep motorists
on their side of the road.
Motorists are legally able to
cross double yellow lines to
pass cyclists if they are able
to do so safely.
Public feedback is open
until December 18. Visit

a 60km/h speed limit

Central Brighton school site
may be sold to developers
• By Sophie Cornish
THE CENTRAL New
Brighton School site
could be sold to private
developers.
A community meeting
was scheduled to be held
last night with a key focus
being the future of the Roy
Stokes Hall which is on the
site.
There is concern the hall
will be also demolished as
part of any new development
on the Seaview Rd
site.
Said Renew Brighton
manager Sylvia Smyth:
“The hall was built for and
has always functioned as
both a community and
school asset. It has been
a treasured by the community
for over 40 years,
including serving as an
emergency centre after the
February 22, 2011, earthquake.”
“The site is destined for
sale and the community
have not been consulted at
all in this process. We have
asked for a pause in this
process so that the community
has the space and
time to decide what comes
next,” said Miss Smyth.
Renew Brighton will host
tomorrow’s meeting with
the Christchurch Circus
Trust, which leases the hall.
The school was closed
at the end of 2015. The
Ministry of Education is in
the process of disposing of
the site.
Crown agencies and
Ngai Tahu have said no to
buying it, leaving the way
clear for private developers
to move in.
The hall was completed
in 1977 after a large
fundraising effort from the
school committee, which
raised $108,000 of the
$150,000 it cost to establish
the hall.
“Hundreds” of members
of the community took
part in the fund-raising
effort, led by the school’s
committee chairman Roy
Stokes, said Miss Smyth.
The school committee,
along with members of the
community, ran housie
nights twice a week for 15
years to raise the money.
DIABETES AWARENESS
People with Diabetes
Our right to a healthy future
Diabetes Christchurch and many other
societies in this district are delighted to
be collaborating with the Lions Clubs
District 202E. Lions Clubs International
recently adopted diabetes as one of their
new core projects. In July this year, it was
announced by Naresh Aggarwal, the Lions
Clubs International President, at the 100th
Convention held in Chicago, who said that
Lions Clubs will not sit on the sidelines as
the disease “diabetes” mounts. We will be
in the thick of efforts to prevent and treat
the disease. He formally announced their
new commitment to curtailing diabetes.
Echoing Helen Keller’s appeal to Lions in
1925 at their convention to become Knights
of the Blind, (Keller Johnson-Thompson,
Keller’s great grand-niece – who also spoke
at this convention), urged Lions to take on
this new challenge of diabetes.
The Diabetes Christchurch Society have
now had several positive meetings with the
202E District Governor, Peter Gamble and
Sam Lilley (District Global Service Team
Leader) to discuss diabetes awareness talks
and are in the process of helping to organise
many of the Lions Clubs, (including
the West Coast, Nelson, Marlborough,
Kaikoura and Canterbury) who will all
help, support and participate in various
diabetes awareness programs, activities,
projects and fundraising initiatives to help
support the local diabetes societies in this
district.
Manager of Diabetes Christchurch
Inc, Lynne Taylor said she was absolutely
delighted with this marvellous support
being offered towards the promotion on
diabetes awareness and looks forward to
raising the profile and education about
diabetes. With these statistics and concerns
in mind, Lions Clubs have taken action
through this international initiative and
both Peter Gamble and Sam Lilley said
their Lions Groups will work hard to focus
on this chronic condition and their work
will support diabetes awareness, education,
prevention, detection, control and research
throughout the coming years.
Diabetes Christchurch Inc is a support
organisation for Canterbury people who
have diabetes, their family and friends.
We offer support, information, advocacy
and non-clinical education on all aspects
of diabetes. Our shop has a wide range of
products including blood glucose meters
and strips, lancets, fingerpickers, ketone
test strips, cookbooks, hypo treatments,
medical grade shoes and socks, travel bags,
our popular Jok ‘n Al sauces and toppings,
and sugar-free treats. Via our website:
www.diabetes.christchurch.co.nz all these
diabetes products are also available online.
Our programmes span from awareness
to prevention, to engagement and support.
The society is about supporting people with
diabetes and is about making meaningful
connections with those people affected
by or at risk of diabetes. We want every
person affected by, or at risk of diabetes in
Canterbury to have access to the support
needed to live a full and active life.
Our office/shop is on the Ground Floor,
550 Hagley Avenue, phone 378-6266,
and open Monday to Friday from 9am-
4pm. Our staff can help you find further
information or make an appointment for

service. You can become involved with our
diabetes awareness programmes or other
fundraising and volunteer activities coming
up. The calendar of events is on our website
www.diabeteschristchurch.co.nz or check
us out on our Facebook pages at www.
facebook.com/DiabetesChristchurchInc
We have a good library of pamphlets and
books on food, exercise and other diabetes
issues. All members receive our Viewpoint
newsletter, which includes information
on all aspects of diabetes, and updates on
local events, as well as local, national and
international diabetes research. We would
love to include your stories about diabetes
in this. Email Lynne, the manager, lynne.
taylor@cdhb.health.nz
Our local campaign is focussing on
raising awareness of how the healthy
food choices can be the easy food choice
and the various steps that individuals
can take to make informed decisions
about what they eat. Special focus will be
placed on the importance of starting the
day with a healthy breakfast. Exercising
30 minutes per day, testing your blood
glucose as recommended by your general
practice medical team and getting support,
information and advocacy from your local
society.
The society is here to help educate and
inform people with diabetes, to promote
healthy lifestyles and effective diabetes selfmanagement
for optimal diabetes control.
Peter Gamble, District Governor
of Lions Clubs District 202E with
Diabetes Christchurch Manager,
Lynne Taylor look forward to
proactively working together to
promote diabetes awareness.

ADVICE with
Now is the best time to sow a new lawn or tackle any lawn problems.
Over sow any bare or brown patches in the lawn with Daltons
Premium 4-in-1 Lawn Patching Gold, which has everything in one
bag and is easy to use. Feed established lawns with Daltons Premium
Lawn Fertiliser from October until Christmas (avoiding the hot summer
months), recommencing from late February until late April.

QUESTION I was given a Daphne in late 2016. Planted it facing east, however it did not do well so I
put it in a pot in April this year with potting mix and a bit of acid fertiliser. Unfortunately,
it is giving up. I love Daphne, what am I doing wrong?
ANSWER
Today’s winning question came from Pauline & Fred. Congratulations!
In general terms, Daphne are not the easiest of shrubs to cultivate. They are incredibly
rewarding with their perfume during winter months, but quite often a difficult plant to
establish in the garden.
Part of the problem lies in the method of production before they reach the
garden centre. They are often field grown in nurseries and then dug up
and potted for sale. Daphne do not like root disturbance and often
can be seen in some garden centers with yellow leaves, leaves
falling or the leaves in a drooping position.
Selection of a very healthy specimen at the time of purchase
is critical. In the garden, they have a preference for welldrained
soil, rich in compost and in a position receiving
good light, but not baking in hot summer sun.
We have a Daltons Premium Lawn Care Pack to giveaway.
Everything you need to care for your lawn! Each pack is
valued at over $80 and contains:
• Daltons Premium Lawn Fertiliser
• Daltons Lawn Patching Gold
• Daltons Premium Lawn Soil
• PLUS a pair of comfortable,
versatile Red Back gardening
gloves from Omni Products
(www.omniproducts.co.nz)
BE IN
TO WIN!
$80
PRIZE
PACK!
Once established, Daphne will thrive requiring only a
moderate amount of attention. Daphne Odora Rubra is
by far the most successful home garden species. While
they can be grown in containers, ensure the container is
large enough for full root development and has sufficient
drainage holes to avoid the potting mix becoming sodden.

Grow guides www.daltons.co.nz/how-to-guides

Keeping up with kumara
• By Henri Ham
LIKE POTATOES, kumara
would have to be one of
those vegetables that is a
pretty regular feature in my
pantry.
They’re versatile (there’s a
long list of dishes I can add
kumara to) and they taste
great.
Each seedling needs to
be planted around 50cm to
1m from the next, so you
do need a bit of space to
have a kūmara crop.
It’s important that you
raise a mound of soft soil
for the kumara to spread
out in. Cultivate your
soil with a rake and then
mound it up in to a hill
around 40cm high.
Next make a small
trench approximately 5cm
deep and lay the seedling
so that the root is lying in
the trench parallel to the
top of the soil, rather than
pushing the root down like
you might with another
vegetable.
Make sure you bend the
seedling so the leaves are
sticking out of the top of
the soil (a J shape). This
will ensure the plant’s roots
(via the leaves) get plenty of
warmth from the sun.
Water gently – it’s important
not to water forcefully
as this might make the
mound flatten out or the
plant roll off the mound.
Do this for the first few
days and then ensure they
get some water weekly.
Depending on what
summer is like this year
you may not need to do any
extra watering at all. But if
it’s hot and dry keep an eye
on things and water at least
weekly.
When you know they’re
ready, harvest very gently.
Broken kumara won’t store.

Fire rages, homes at risk
HISTORIC: Get dropped off at Dufferin Tce by the funicular railway. It is the site
of the fort and chateau which served as the official residence for the governors
of New France.
PRISTINE: The Lower Town is nestled around the base of the Place Royale.
Quebec – clinging to Gallic traditions
• By Mike Yardley
IT IS like a grand evocative set,
a landscape spanning 400 years,
bestowed with World Heritage
protection in 1985.
Old Quebec is the only North
American walled city beyond
Mexico, underpinning its proud
sense of historical continuity.
A city that clings to her Frenchspeaking
heritage and Gallic
traditions, the cradle of French
North America, where the dream
of New France was born and
died.
The Old City comprises the
Upper Town, surrounded by
fortifications and strutting the
craggy heights of Diamond Cape,
while the Lower Town is nestled
around its base, fanning out from
Place Royale.
I started my exploratory at this
compact and photogenic plaza
which the locals consider as the
birthplace of French America.
It is where the famed French
explorer Samuel de Champlain
made his home away from home
in 1608, declaring it French territory.
There’s still a bust of Louis
XIV, the Sun King, in the centre
of the plaza, installed in 1686,
which was the town’s bustling
marketplace in the 17th and 18th
centuries.
Fifty years ago, the harbourside
district was reborn and rehabilitated,
with antique shops, bistros,
and chic boutique hotels breathing
renewed atmosphere into the
plaza.
Dominating the square is Notre-Dame-des-Victoires,
Québec’s
oldest stone church, built in 1688
after an inferno razed many
Lower Town homes. Built atop
the ruins of Champlain’s first
outpost, British cannons smashed
the church during the 1759 siege,
which was lustily restored four
years later.
Its paintings, altar, and large
model boat suspended from the
ceiling, were brought by early
settlers to ensure safe voyages.
Unsurprisingly, the church is one
of the most coveted locations for
weddings in Canada. It’s fully
booked for the next two years.
Rue du Petit-Champlain is
arguably the prettiest street in
the city, flanked by impeccably
restored merchant houses and
fur trading posts, now brimming
with bistros, art galleries and
handicraft boutiques.
Natural-fibre weaving, Inuit
carvings, hand-painted silks,
local fashion design, and enamelled
copper crafts are among
the trademark specialties for
sale here. After founding the
settlement in the Lower Town,
Champlain relocated its heart to
the more easily defendable Upper
Town, atop Diamond Cape.
Originally the two districts
were connected by the vividlynamed
Breakneck Staircase, a
gut-busting stairway first built in
1635. Originally built in wood,
the current steel staircase replaced
it in 1968. It’s no problem
tottering down, but a hell of a
thigh-burner clambering back up.
Save your energy and opt for the
funicular when ascending.
I’m a funicular fanatic from
way back and Quebec’s cliffclimbing
contraption is a classic.
It’s actually one of the region’s
oldest businesses, hauling humanity
since 1879.
The funicular coughs you out
onto Dufferin Tce, which occupies
the site of the fort and chateau
which served as the official
residence for the governors of
New France, including the British
rulers, until it was destroyed by
fire in 1834.
The governor at the time,
Lord Durham, decided to build
a sprawling cliff-side wooden
promenade on top of the chateau
ruins, which has been progressively
enlarged now extending
for a kilometre along the cliffs of
Cape Diamond. Lurking beneath
the terrace, the archaeological
crypt of the chateau’s remains and
the seat of power for French and
British governors.
A major excavation project
has revitalised the ruins and the
relics, which you can now walk
through, underneath the terrace.
The terrace eventually leads you
all the way down to the Plains of
Abraham, where a 20min battle
changed the course of history
and a continent’s destiny. It was
on this field that Britain’s General
James Wolfe and the French General
de Montcalm crossed swords
and both died, climaxing in the
British army conquering Quebec,
spelling the death on New France.
It’s a peaceful city park now,
full of winding walking paths
and bicycle trails, and a favourite
spot for cross-country skiers,
come winter. Adjoining the park,
the British reinforced the city’s
defences and built a colossal starshaped
fortress, the Citadel.
It is the largest fortified base in
North America still occupied by
troops. The regiment turns out in
scarlet tunics and bearskin caps
for the changing of the guard,
daily. In a city that has borne
witness to such dramatic military
history, the Fort Museum brings
it all to life with a riveting sound
and light show cast across a giant
diorama, re-enacting the area’s
important battles.
It’s all staged across a 37 sq m
replica of the city – complete with
ships, cannons, and hundreds of
miniature soldiers lined up for
battle. www.quebecregion.com
STRATEGIC: Hotel Chateau Frontenac is on the site where
former French and British governors once held power.
PRETTY: Rue du Petit-Champlain is brimming with boutiques,
galleries and bistros.

Fire rages, homes at risk
Chicago brings ‘all that jazz’ to Court
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
PREPARE TO step into the roaring 20s as
one of the city’s largest theatre companies
brings crime, razzle-dazzle, scandal and
all that jazz to the stage.
The Court Theatre will stage one of
the longest running shows in Broadway
history as its major musical for the year –
Chicago.
And the show’s iconic role of the
fidgety and innocent yet selfish character
Roxie Hart will be
played by National
Academy of Singing
and Dramatic Art
graduate Nomi
Cohen.
Having grown
up watching the
2002 film starring
Catherine Zeta-
Jones and Renée
Nomi Cohen
Zellweger, she
considers Roxie
one of the most exciting roles she has
played.
“I find she is a fidgety sort of person
and has a really unstable sort of energy
. . . you will probably notice she isn’t
necessarily super consistent with the sort
of person she is because she doesn’t really
know who she is,” Cohen, 25, said.
Set in Chicago during prohibition, it
focuses on the concept of corruption and
celebrity criminals during the 1920s.
Cohen said she certainly does not plan
on clawing her way to the top, but she
shares similarities to her character in
terms of drive and determination.
“I think we all want to be loved
and want to be admired and
want to be good at what we do
and be recognised.
Originally from Flagstaff,
Arizona, Cohen moved to
Christchurch when she
was eight and has been
based in Auckland for the
past four years.
It has been a tough
road for Cohen since
her graduation from the
National Academy of
Singing and
Dramatic
Art in
2012.
“You graduate and you think success
means a constant job. I think that
is simply not true,” she
said. But she said
when she
looks back
she has
been

lucky to work in the performing arts most
of the time.
“I think there is an exciting and
important conversation starting to
happen over the last year that talks about
the mental health of performing artists,”
she said.
She said no one can prepare you for
what it feels like to have swallow your
pride and take a normal job because you
have to pay the bills.
“Find ways of getting through the tough
times that don’t involve things that aren’t
good for your body. Drugs and alcohol
can be quite a big issue within our
industry,” she said.
Some of her favourite work she
has performed includes her own
award-winning show S+S Song
& Cabaret: PUSS.
Growing up, Cohen saw no
other option than to go to
performing arts school.
She said when she was
younger and “beyond the
age of cute”, she would
create entire outfits out of
scarfs or dress up as a cat
and drink milk out of a
saucer on the ground.

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.

Selwyn Motorfest and Family Fun Day
Sunday 26th November, 10am-3pm
Jones Road Auto
Head to the Jones Road Auto Selwyn
Motors and more on display
A great day’s entertainment is on
order for the inaugural Jones Road Auto
Selwyn Motor Fest and Family Fun Day.
Hours of planning and work have gone
into making this a great day out and
there will be something for everyone in
the family, especially motor enthusiasts.
Covering 30 hectares, the Jones Road
Auto Selwyn Motor Fest and Family Fun
Day will be a huge affair with hundreds
of cars, trucks, motorcycles, motors,
tractors, steam engines and interesting
displays, as well as market and food stalls.
The first of its kind for the district, this
event has attracted considerable interest
with over 200 show vehicles registered so
far. Motor vehicles on display will range
from a 1914 Model T to late model cars
like a 2014 Corvette and 2017 Lotus 7.
The Ellesmere Vintage Club, Vintage
Speedway and RATEC Motorsport will
be there, while the Canterbury Mustang
Club are making this day an official club
event.
“The grounds look fantastic with the
grass cut and baled for seating. There’ll
be something for everyone with a great
show of motor vehicles and wide variety
of stalls and entertainment throughout

the day,” says Selwyn District Councillor
Craig Watson who is on the organising
committee.
Craig says the event will be a fete
with a motor focus, cool activities and
displays. Local emergency services
including St John ambulances; vintage
and car clubs; rally cars; the New
Zealand Trucking Association; the
Selwyn District Council; Residents’
Association; Selwyn Parenting
Network; and other community
groups will be present. There will be
plenty for the children too, with a
Bunnings Warehouse construction
display, bouncy castles, face painting,
pony rides, steam engine rides and
more.
Thirty plus market stalls will
offer something for everyone, from
motoring paraphernalia to children’s
clothing and Tupperware, with an
additional 15 food stalls and four
coffee vendors providing a range of
cuisine.
Relax and listen to the music of
Shed 24 and Lee Martin after strolling
around the exhibits and motors on
display.

Supporting St John
The Selwyn Central St John branch has
responsibility for raising $150,000 towards
their local operation. All money from the
Jones Road Auto Selwyn Motor Fest and
Family Fun Day will go to supporting
the Leeston and Rolleston stations,
ambulances and vital services offered by
St John throughout a district that covers a
considerable geographic area.
Local business
supports local
community
When Nigel and Lisa Fleck heard about
plans for a motor fest they were keen to
get involved, leading to Jones Road Auto
becoming major sponsor for the event.
With a shared interest in cars and both
Nigel and Lisa driving their own classic cars,
the idea of holding a family oriented motor
fest in Selwyn appealed, especially as it is a
fundraiser for St John.
“With it being a family event and fundraiser
for such a good cause, it was important for us
to be involved,” says Lisa who with Nigel own
and operate Jones Road Auto and Selwyn
Auto.
“Participation in this event allows us to give
something back to the community especially
when St John helps so many people.”

Plug-in Prius takes charge
• By Ross Kiddie
I GET the impression
we are on the cusp of a
dramatic change in the way
automobiles are built, well,
more specifically, the way
they are powered.
Some manufacturing
companies have already
announced a phasing out
of the internal combustion
engine while others
are rapidly increasing
development of electric
cars.
Add to that the desire
by many governments
to increase the electric
vehicle fleet, including
New Zealand, and the
stage is set for an electric
revolution.
In New Zealand at
present there are several
plug-in, electric-only
models in our new car
market, and there are many
others available pre-owned
through direct imports
from Japan, and if you take
into account the multitude
of hybrid models available
new, then a definite wind
of change can be felt.
The car that started the
hybrid revolution, Toyota’s
Prius, is not available here
new as a plug-in, even
though it is marketed
extensively in Japan and
the United States.
However, if you are keen
to join the plug-in brigade,
yet find the cost of buying
electric quite prohibitive,
then Toyota may still have
the answer. Toyota New
Zealand is importing preowned,
low kilometre Prius
models direct from Japan,
TOYOTA PRIUS PHEV: Pre-owned from Toyota’s
Signature Class operation.
they are refurbished at
Toyota’s Thames Signature
Class facility before offered
to the dealer network.
Toyota New Zealand
made one of these available
for evaluation, and the first
thing you notice is that it
still has that easy-to-drive
operation that we have
come to know in Prius, it
is intuitive and the hybrid
system is still very much
intact, the plug-in facility is
an extra, it’s there to offer
electric-only travel.
When battery energy
runs low, the four-cylinder
1.8-litre petrol mechanism
cuts in to work in the way
that hybrids have now
become familiar.
Because the evaluation
car was pre-owned I didn’t
take stock of the fuel usage
benefits Prius offers, except
to say new Prius is rated
with a 3.4-litre per 100km
(82mpg) combined cycle
fuel usage average.
The plug-in effect
wouldn’t alter that figure,
it’s just that by plugging it
in and charging you are
effectively prolonging the
time before petrol power
cuts in.
Of course, there are
buttons to alternate
between the two power
sources at the driver’s
discretion, but the Prius
in this form is intuitive,
it does things in its own
way so seamlessly that the
driver needn’t know what
is going on under the
bonnet.
New Zealand buyers
have been served well by
the beautifully-presented
models from Toyota
Signature Class operation.
The evaluation car was
pristine, showing just
17,000km. Similar models
are listing for around
$35,000.
That represents a huge
saving against some of the
new electric-only models
in today’s market here.

CHRISTCHURCH’S top tennis
player will look to put his name
alongside some of the greats
from the past 116 years when he
competes for one of Canterbury’s
oldest sporting trophies at
Wilding Park this weekend.
James Meredith, 27, is the No
1 seed for the Canterbury Open,
a title he came within touching
distance of two years ago.
The open was first played in
1901 and contains some of the
biggest names in New Zealand
tennis over the past century,
including the likes of Onny Parun,
Brian Fairlie, Alistair Hunt,
David Lewis and Mark Nielson.
“To have my name alongside
names like that would be an
honour,” said Meredith.
The Cashmere player is looking
to go one step better than the
last time he played in the open
in 2015. He was defeated in the
final by French Open doubles
champion Michael Venus in
three sets 4-6, 7-5, 4-6.
“2015 was really special playing
in front of a home crowd at
Cashmere. The atmosphere there
was awesome and I’m hoping
we get another good showing
at Wilding Park this weekend,”
said Meredith.
His chances of lifting the title
received a massive boost yesterday
when 2016 champion, Rhett
Purcell, of Auckland, withdrew
from the open due to injury.
Meredith has been on a good
run of form leading into the
open. He is unbeaten playing for
Cashmere in the Christchurch
inter-club competition and has
also been travelling to Auckland
to play in its inter-club competition.
In Auckland, he has had
only one loss playing singles to

as a player. The last six months
has seen him develop his game
on clay in Europe as well as play
in a number of junior tournaments

Heap will face a number of
challenges on his side of the
draw with Waimairi’s big serving
Remi Feneon, national 14

Felck, and Elmwood No 1
Hayden Joblin all on the stacked
side of the draw.
The winner of the championship
will walk away with
NZ$1800. The total prize pool
of $10,000 will be split equally
across the men’s and women’s
competiton.
The 16-strong men’s tournament
will be made up of 11
seeded players, with 10 others
playing off for the remaining five
spots on Friday. The opening two
rounds will be played on Saturday.
The semi-finals and final
will take place on Sunday.
The women’s open consists
of an eight-strong draw, with
Australian Emily Martin heading
a trio of local hopes in Tessa
McCann, Joelene Feneon and
Abby Mason.
Depleted Pride need win to make football finals
and Aimee Phillips all unavailable
for the game due to national

match against bottom-of-thetable
Central Football in Palmerston
North, the Pride are at the
top on 10 points with Northern
Football and Southern Football.
Auckland Football are also in
the race for the top three on nine
points.
A win on Sunday will guarantee
the Pride at least a spot in the
pre-final on December 3. However,
if Northern and Southern
drop points, the Pride could
finish the round-robin in top
spot which will automatically
qualify them for the final. The
second and third place finishers
will play-off in the pre-final for
the second final spot.

when it was won by nine-time
world rally champion Sebastien
Loeb.
Top seed for the event will be
World Rally Championship star
Hayden Paddon, who will team
up with former co-driver John
Kennard in their Hyundai i20
AP4+ car. Hawkeswood will run
second on the road in his Mazda
2 AP4+, while Hunt’s Subaru
WRX STi will run third ahead
of Summerfield who has a handy
road position of fourth.
“Obviously Hayden [Paddon]
is going to be the guy to beat, but
we’re all going to be on the limit
behind him,” said Summerfield.
The rally consists of 12 special
stages run over Saturday and
Sunday.

& Property
What’s my house really worth?
When you’ve lived in a property for
a while it can be hard to be rational
about its worth. How can you put a
price on the spot where you’ve built
so many memories with family and
friends? Someone will surely recognise
the hours you spent sanding back the
windows or digging out the agapanthus
in the garden and reward you with a
high price, won’t they? Unfortunately
potential buyers may see things
differently, especially in a slow housing
market.
There are several methods you
can use to gauge the worth of your
property. Remember that the rateable
value or RV (formerly known as the
government valuation, or GV) of your
property doesn’t really provide any
clues. These valuations are done by the
local council to work out what share of
rates a household should pay. They are
only done every three years and don’t
take any improvements into account –
increasingly, properties that include an
RV figure in the advertising will come
with a disclaimer that it is not indicative
of current market value.
These days you can gather a lot of
information for free thanks to websites
like Trade Me and Homes.co.nz. Trade
Me’s Property Insights has information
on more than 1.5 million homes,
including rateable value data, previous
sale prices, when the property was built
and what size it is. The site also provides
an estimated value range, based on
a melting pot of data from sales of
comparable properties, listing details
and user activity. Homes.co.nz operates
similarly. Its estimate service is built
on a complex set of valuation models,
using around 30 million pieces of data
bought from councils nationwide, plus
sales values and a wide set of property
features. Both sites recognise there are a
number of factors at play, so they offer
an estimated value range that can be
quite broad.
While both these sites are useful, they
don’t show the full picture and should
only be used as the starting point in
determining value. They can’t take

the condition of your property into
account and they may not recognise
any improvements you might have
made (though homes.co.nz does allow
owners to ‘claim’ their property and edit
information about it).
Let’s say you own a large property in
an area where there have been some
big-ticket sales in the last year. Your
property might have some serious
structural issues and be in generally
poor condition, yet the algorithms
may claim that it is worth a lot more
than any sensible buyer would pay
for it because other houses in the
neighbourhood have sold for high
prices. The impact of this is two-fold.
Firstly, the seller could anticipate a big
pay-day that may never arrive; and
secondly, some buyers may be put off
making an offer because they think it’s
out of range.
There are a couple of ways to combat
this. When you start working with a
real estate agent to sell your property
they must supply you with a current
market appraisal or CMA. This is based
on similar information to the online
versions, but it also comes with the
agent’s real-time, real-life knowledge
of the area, what similar properties
have sold for and the condition and
particular characteristics of your
own property (such as whether it
has been repainted recently or it’s in
a state of disrepair). The agent will
have had the chance to walk through
your property and identify its unique
selling propositions, such as good sun,
proximity to desirable schools and other
features that buyers like. It’s important
to note that you may get varying CMA
ranges from different real estate agents
as they may each take a divergent
perspective on your property that you
will then need to consider.
Your other option is to pay a
registered valuer to provide you with
an independent valuation. This service
comes at a cost (the price will vary,
depending on the level of detail), but
it will be more accurate. The Property
Institute, which represents valuers, says
a registered valuation can help sellers
be a little more clinical about their
property’s worth.
Even with all the information you
can gather, the true indication of
your property’s value is what a willing
buyer will pay for it at the given time
that it’s on the market. A valuation, a
price range or a figure reached by an
algorithm is not cash in the bank.

ONE ONLY SHOW!
Shane
David
PLAYTIME Promotions treat Christchurch to two iconic artists
in a one off show at the Hornby Workingmen’s Club next Friday
night - Shane Hale and David LaPlanche.
Recent recipient of the Queen’s Birthday honours Order of
Merit, rock n roll legend Shane Hales, has been performing for
over five decades. Simply known as Shane, he was a 60's
TV/Recording star with many hits to his credit, including 1969
Loxene Golden Disc award for his single ‘Saint Paul’. Elvis,
Buddy, Dion, Cliff, Ricky, and Stones are some of the artists he
will be covering at next Friday’s show, as well as some of his
own hits.
Joining him, direct from Australia is Waimate-born pop
tribute artist, David LaPlanche. Formerly from Christchurch,
David now lives in NSW and is a regular on the club circuits
both here and in Australia. He will be presenting his renditions
of hits by Cash, Cliff, Darin, Nelson, Presley and more!
Shane and David, backed by the Flashback Rockers
Showband, are “Reelin’ in the Rockin’ 50's - 60's” at the Hornby
Workingmen’s Club next Friday 1st December 2017. Show starts
at 8pm. Tickets are $20 on sale now at the club office, Carmen
Rd, phone 03 349 9026.
