MILESTONE: On Friday, Heather Watson will finish up after 31 years catering at Lincoln University. ​<br />

Hanging up the apron after 31 years<br />

• By Emily O’Connell<br />

“DREAM BIG, work hard and<br />

stay humble.”<br />

That’s the advice Halswell’s<br />

Heather Watson has after 31<br />

years catering at Lincoln University.<br />

Currently the catering manager,<br />

Mrs Watson kick-started<br />

her career at the university as a<br />

chef in February 1987.<br />

But on Friday her journey at<br />

the university will come to an<br />

end, as Mrs Watson takes off<br />

her apron for the last time.<br />

She says spending more time<br />

with family and her husband of<br />

more than 40 years, Trevor, is<br />

behind the decision.<br />

“Well 31 years is a long time<br />

and it’s time to move on and be<br />

with family, I’ve got five grandchildren,”<br />

Mrs Watson said.<br />

She plans to have three months<br />

off “doing nothing” before deciding<br />

what her next move is.<br />

Mrs Watson has “really, really<br />

enjoyed” her time at the university<br />

and says she will miss the<br />

students and staff.<br />

THE LINWOOD-Central-<br />

Heathcote Community Board has<br />

made a rare move in a bid to keep<br />

a controversial liquor store from<br />

opening in Phillipstown.<br />

The board has been granted leave<br />

by the Alcohol Regulatory and<br />

Licensing Authority so it can be<br />

involved in the appeal of a decision<br />

that declined a Liquorland application<br />

for an off-licence on Ferry Rd.<br />

Chairwoman Sally Buck said it<br />

was “probably” a rare move that<br />

the board received independent<br />

legal advice and sought leave to<br />

fight the appeal.<br />

She said it was not normal for<br />

boards to seek leave, but it was<br />

what the residents were calling for.<br />

“But we’re doing a good job, I<br />

think, and listening to what our<br />

community wants. It’s clear they<br />

don’t want another bottle store.”<br />

Ms Buck said it would be “interesting”<br />

to see her board’s move<br />

set a precedent for other boards to<br />

lobby against liquor outlets in their<br />

community. •Turn to page 5<br />

THERE WAS nothing lucky about<br />

Cooper Moore’s world stars of junior golf<br />

championship win in Las Vegas (see page<br />

8).<br />

The 10-year-old is one of Canterbury’s<br />

most promising young golfers.<br />

The Las Vegas event was played over three nine hole rounds<br />

on a shortened course.<br />

Cooper tied with a United States player after the three rounds<br />

and a par got him home on the first play-off hole.<br />

His father gave him good advice before the tournament: “Dad<br />

just told me to hit it straight off the tee and give myself the best<br />

chance to get on the green and that’s how it played out.”<br />

Cooper would like to be like Jordan Spieth one day. That’s a<br />

great goal to aim for.<br />

Residents frustrated by vandals<br />

• By Anan Zaki<br />

WIGRAM RESIDENTS are<br />

becoming increasingly frustrated<br />

over vandalism in the area.<br />

Residents say there have been<br />

at least six incidents of egging<br />

and one instance of rubbish bins<br />

being intentionally damaged.<br />

Wigram resident Tia Tuuta-<br />

Rurehe said her family’s house<br />

on Winfield St was egged by<br />

three people in a white hatchback<br />

a fortnight ago.<br />

She also believed the same<br />

group tried to steal her car on<br />

Monday last week.<br />

“They disabled the central<br />

locking and were able to take out<br />

the wires that start the car,” Ms<br />

Tuuta-Rurehe said.<br />

The alleged group were wearing<br />

black hoodies, but she could<br />

not identify them, she said.<br />

When her mother looked out<br />

of the window after hearing<br />

noises, the group ran to a white<br />

hatchback, she said.<br />

Six houses were hit by eggs<br />

in her neighbourhood, she<br />

said.<br />

A Wigram woman who did<br />

not want to be named said she<br />

received aggressive messages<br />

on social media after she posted<br />

about her home being egged.<br />

Her house on Bibiana St was<br />

SUSPECTS: Cars that are alleged to have been involved in egging and bin-damaging incidents<br />

recently in the Wigram area.<br />

egged on Monday last week<br />

at about 9.30pm. She has not<br />

reported the incident to police<br />

but believed neighbours did.<br />

“My whole family was home,<br />

husband, three children and a<br />

host student, ages 10 to 17.[They]<br />

were unsure of what was going<br />

on and [it was] a little unsettling,”<br />

the woman said.<br />

Police said they received<br />

reports of properties being egged<br />

four times, two in Wigram and<br />

one each in Halswell and Sockburn.<br />

They also received one report<br />

of rubbish bins being damaged<br />

by a car.<br />

Egging was reported on<br />

Richmond Ave, Halswell, last<br />

Tuesday. In Wigram, egging was<br />

reported on Monday last week<br />

on Kittyhawk Ave and again on<br />

<strong>July</strong> 13 on Valiant St.<br />

The incident In Sockburn was<br />

reported on Monday last week.<br />

“At this stage we cannot say for<br />

sure if they are linked or not,” a<br />

police spokeswoman said.<br />

The rubbish bins were damaged<br />

on <strong>July</strong> 11 around 11.30pm,<br />

police said.<br />

“A number of wheelie bins<br />

were found lying damaged on<br />

Aidanfield Dr and Skyhawk Rd.<br />

Police attended at the time of<br />

the complaint where someone<br />

advised a black car hit the bins,”<br />

a spokeswoman said.<br />

SKATE PARK WORK<br />

The delayed concrete works at<br />

the Knights Stream skate park<br />

has been completed. The work<br />

was originally planned for June<br />

but wet weather delayed the<br />

concrete pouring. The next<br />

stage will involve the completion<br />

of landscape and equipment<br />

installation. The skate<br />

park is scheduled to open in<br />

mid-August. When construction<br />

started in April it was originally<br />

intended to be open by the<br />

end of the month.<br />

HOCKEY TURF COMPLETE<br />

The premier hockey turf<br />

has been completed at the<br />

Nga Puna Wai sports hub in<br />

Wigram. The car park adjacent<br />

to the athletic track is also ready<br />

for use. In May, the athletics<br />

track was damaged by vandals<br />

who drove a vehicle over it. The<br />

damaged athletics track has<br />

since been repaired.<br />

HEARTBROKEN: Retired nurse Jill Walker is upset that two copper<br />

urns which belonged to her late husband were stolen.<br />

Woolston widow upset over stolen urns<br />

• By Anan Zaki<br />

A WIDOW is pleading for the<br />

return of two much loved family<br />

artefacts that were stolen.<br />

Retired nurse Jill Walker said<br />

she was heartbroken when two<br />

copper urns that belonged to her<br />

late husband of 43 years, Barry<br />

Walker, were taken from her<br />

Woolston home.<br />

They were one of the few<br />

memories left of Mr Walker, who<br />

passed away nine years ago, she<br />

said.<br />

The urns were originally parts<br />

of vintage chocolate cauldrons<br />

from about 1975 that he<br />

painstakingly restored.<br />

“They were in an awful state<br />

then, they weren’t polished<br />

and Barry had to make it all<br />

beautiful.<br />

“It was special for me and a<br />

reminder of him, that’s why<br />

I’m so upset. If they had taken<br />

anything else . . . I would have<br />

gone: ‘Oh that’s bad luck,’ but not<br />

those [urns],” Mrs Walker said.<br />

The two urns were stolen<br />

between June 16 and 20.<br />

“I pass them every day, but<br />

when something is so familiar<br />

to you, you can pass it and not<br />

realise it’s not there. So I think<br />

it was around then that it was<br />

stolen,” Mrs Walker said.<br />

She planned to plant two<br />

camellia plants called ‘donation’<br />

in the urns because her husband<br />

was an organ donor.<br />

“I have never really done<br />

anything as a memorial for Barry<br />

and I was going to plant them to<br />

make something special for him,”<br />

Mrs Walker said.<br />

The copper urns would have<br />

been hard to steal, she said.<br />

“I would be surprised if<br />

somebody did it on their own.<br />

I’ve got a station wagon and I can<br />

only fit one at a time with the<br />

seats down.”<br />

Her biggest fear is that the urns<br />

may have been melted down, but<br />

urged those responsible to come<br />

forward.<br />

“That’s what I hope hasn’t<br />

happened, the copper alone<br />

in them would be worth $700<br />

or $800 each,” Mrs Walker<br />

said.<br />

Senior Constable Murray<br />

McGusty said police are<br />

investigating the theft.<br />

“We would really like to return<br />

them to the rightful owners and<br />

ask that anyone who may have<br />

information on where the urns<br />

might be contacts Canterbury<br />

police.”<br />

•If you have any information<br />

that can help find the two<br />

copper urns, phone police<br />

on 363 7400 and quote<br />

file number 180620/8314.<br />

Alternatively, information can<br />

be given anonymously via<br />

Crimestoppers on 0800 555<br />

111.<br />

Halswell caterer steps down after 31 years<br />

•From page 1<br />

For 18 years, Mrs Watson’s<br />

role as the catering manager<br />

has seen her manage all the<br />

menus, staff and organise<br />

“everything.”<br />

“Our core business is students,<br />

students are great, I love the<br />

students, I’ll miss the students,”<br />

she said.<br />

Mrs Watson says some of her<br />

some of her favourite memories<br />

have been setting up the Bert<br />

Sutcliffe Oval and being involved<br />

with all the international cricket<br />

teams.<br />

“This year we catered for<br />

the U19 Cricket World Cup,<br />

so we fed players throughout<br />

Canterbury, 16 teams, but that’s<br />

the third time we’ve done that in<br />

my time here,” Mrs Watson said.<br />

But her most “humbling”<br />

experience was catering for the<br />

Crown apology to Ngai Tahu.<br />

“Nineteen ninety eight but it<br />

just seems like yesterday it just<br />

brings goosebumps . . . to be<br />

asked to do that was amazing,”<br />

Mrs Watson said.<br />

Another humbling time for<br />

Mrs Watson was “looking after”<br />

the disaster victim identification<br />

team who was staying at<br />

the university following<br />

the February 22, 2011,<br />

earthquake.<br />

“That group was just amazing<br />

and they saw the worst of it,” she<br />

said.<br />

Lodestar Ave restrictions likely<br />

• By Anan Zaki<br />

HEAVY VEHICLE restrictions<br />

on a residential street in<br />

Wigram is a step closer.<br />

The city council’s Traffic and<br />

Parking bylaw’s operational<br />

guidelines have been finalised<br />

and the Halswell-Hornby-<br />

Riccarton Community Board<br />

will today vote to impose heavy<br />

vehicle restrictions under the<br />

new bylaw.<br />

The first group of streets that<br />

are recommended to come under<br />

the new bylaw are streets with<br />

existing heavy vehicle restrictions<br />

that were passed under the<br />

Land Transport Act 1998.<br />

The new bylaw allows police<br />

to issue infringement notices,<br />

whereas the Land Transport Act<br />

could not.<br />

Board chairman Mike Mora<br />

said transferring the existing<br />

heavy vehicle restrictions to the<br />

new bylaw meant creating new<br />

restrictions such as Lodestar<br />

Ave is close.<br />

But Mr Mora would not confirm<br />

a time frame.<br />

“This will make it easier to<br />

introduce new streets. Lodestar<br />

Ave will be included [in the new<br />

restrictions] as well,”he said.<br />

Adopting the new streets<br />

would need formal consultation<br />

with residents, Mr Mora said.<br />

City council acting manager<br />

of transport operations Ryan<br />

Rolston said staff are in the process<br />

of assessing Lodestar Ave<br />

under the new guidelines.<br />

“There is a need to engage<br />

with freight operators and the<br />

police in the application of the<br />

guidelines, and consequently it<br />

will take several weeks to complete<br />

this process.<br />

“Once that has occurred,<br />

we will be in a position to<br />

determine if restricting heavy<br />

vehicles on Lodestar Ave can<br />

be put to the community as a<br />

formal proposal,” Mr Rolston<br />

said.<br />

Mr Mora said last month that<br />

the residents of Lodestar Ave<br />

HUNTER ​<br />

have not been forgotten.<br />

Heavy vehicle usage on Lodestar<br />

Ave was first brought to<br />

attention by Lady Wigram Retirement<br />

Village residents who<br />

complained about the noise.<br />

Resident Wanda Waites said<br />

last month that she would leave<br />

the area regardless of a heavy<br />

vehicle ban on the street due to<br />

stress.<br />

Board in rare bid to stop liquor store<br />

•From page 1<br />

Riccarton Liquor Ltd’s application<br />

was declined in<br />

May as the district licencing<br />

committee said<br />

the area was too “vulnerable”<br />

and another<br />

store could lead to lower<br />

prices in alcohol causing<br />

an increase in alcoholrelated<br />

harm.<br />

More than 100<br />

objections were<br />

submitted to the board,<br />

including from the medical<br />

officer of health, police, residents<br />

Sally Buck<br />

and nearby Linwood College.<br />

There are 17 off-licences within<br />

1km of the proposed site,<br />

including six bottle stores,<br />

two supermarkets, four<br />

taverns with off-licences,<br />

two specialist alcohol<br />

outlets, plus another three<br />

alcohol outlets.<br />

Ms Buck said Phillipstown<br />

does not need<br />

another liquor store.<br />

“We are busy revitalising<br />

and re-energising our<br />

area, and there is no place for yet<br />

another off-licence in an already<br />

crowded market,” Ms Buck said.<br />

“Under-age drinking and<br />

alcohol-related incidents and<br />

harm undermine community<br />

well-being.”<br />

The application came from<br />

Steve Crotty and Michael Scott,<br />

who also own Liquorland Riccarton.<br />

AT WORK: Ken Barnes working in an early Vanilla Ices cart. ​<br />

Ice Cream Charlie<br />

farewelled;<br />

legacy lives on<br />

• By Bridget Rutherford<br />

THE CUSTOMER is king.<br />

That was one of the lessons<br />

Ken Barnes taught his<br />

children when they helped<br />

him man his iconic ice<br />

cream stall, Vanilla Ices.<br />

Mr Barnes was the city’s<br />

third Ice Cream Charlie,<br />

running the Christchurch<br />

institution for years when<br />

it was based on Lichfield<br />

St, behind Farmers, and<br />

later in its current<br />

location at Victoria<br />

Square.<br />

He passed away<br />

last Sunday at<br />

Anthony Wilding<br />

Hospital. He was<br />

94.<br />

Mr Barnes, who<br />

was trained as a<br />

fitter and turner,<br />

was also heavily involved<br />

in the Lions<br />

Club of Christchurch<br />

South for<br />

more than 20 years.<br />

Daughter Pam Richardson<br />

said her father was a<br />

special man who loved his<br />

job.<br />

“He loved serving<br />

customers chatting away<br />

to them listening to their<br />

stories of where they came<br />

from.”<br />

Mrs Richardson said he<br />

worked long days.<br />

“As youngsters we spent<br />

Pam<br />

Richardson<br />

many hours standing on a<br />

box beside the cart washing<br />

and drying glasses or<br />

inside standing beside father<br />

collecting the money<br />

and giving the change.<br />

We learnt to look after the<br />

customer – the customer<br />

was king,” she said.<br />

“Look after the customer<br />

and he will return time<br />

and time again. And they<br />

did for their weekly treat<br />

– a dish of ice cream with<br />

raspberry topping<br />

all made at<br />

home in the factory<br />

in Clarkson<br />

Ave.”<br />

The first Ice<br />

Cream Charlie<br />

was Sali Mahomet,<br />

who set up a<br />

cart in Cathedral<br />

Square in 1903.<br />

When Mr<br />

Mahomet died<br />

in 1943, Vic<br />

Wilkinson, who ran<br />

Vanilla Ices, was given the<br />

name.<br />

Mr Wilkinson owned<br />

a dairy farm and used<br />

the milk to make his ice<br />

cream.<br />

Then his daughter Joan<br />

married Mr Barnes, who<br />

grew up in Cheviot, and<br />

they started running the<br />

cart, with the help of Mr<br />

Wilkinson. Their son Max<br />

later took over later.<br />

HISTORY: One of the Vanilla Ices carts that Ken<br />

Barnes used when he owned the business.<br />

Mr Barnes’ funeral was<br />

held yesterday at St Augustine’s<br />

Anglican Church in<br />

Cashmere.<br />

Mrs Richardson said<br />

people travelled from all<br />

over town to get an ice<br />

cream from the cart at the<br />

end of the week.<br />

“Victoria Square, the latest<br />

of his [Mr Barnes] sites,<br />

was an amazing setting for<br />

an ice cream cart.”<br />

Lions Club of Christchurch<br />

South secretary and<br />

friend Barry Scott said Mr<br />

Barnes was an honest and<br />

clever gentleman.<br />

He was the convener of<br />

the annual magic show and<br />

part of the Santa’s Workshop<br />

team that built toys to<br />

donate at Christmas.<br />

“Any working bee<br />

through the Lions, Ken<br />

would be there, and he<br />

would be there with his<br />

basket and his coffee. He<br />

always had enough for<br />

himself and anyone else<br />

there.”<br />

Mr Scott said Mr Barnes<br />

and his late wife Joan attended<br />

most Lions events.<br />

“When we asked him<br />

what was in his ice cream,<br />

he would say ‘I’m not telling<br />

you that’. That was his<br />

life there for quite a few<br />

years,” Mr Scott said.<br />

“He was certainly a<br />

magician when it came to<br />

dishing out the ice cream.”<br />

Vanilla Ices has been<br />

owned by George and<br />

Raewyn Taylor since 1999.<br />

Mrs Taylor said she had<br />

heard Mr Barnes passed<br />

away, but did not know<br />

him personally.<br />

Mr Barnes is survived<br />

by his children Pam, Max<br />

and Lynne, along with his<br />

grandchildren and greatgrandchildren.<br />

Earlier in the week the Australian<br />

Lucia also reached the final of<br />

the 10 and under girls doubles<br />

through her five pool matches<br />

to advance to the quarter finals<br />

with a record of 60-2 on games.<br />

Lucia accounted for Australia’s<br />

• By Jacob Page<br />

RUSSLEY GOLFER Cooper<br />

Moore has won the nine and<br />

10-year-old world stars of junior<br />

golf championship in Las Vegas.<br />

Cooper was one of three<br />

Canterbury golfers to compete<br />

in the international tournament<br />

which finished on Friday.<br />

Everglades golfer Ethan Lam<br />

finished tied for 11th in the same<br />

age-group, while his older brother<br />

Hayden finished seventh in the<br />

11 to 12-year-old boys grade.<br />

The tournament also had golfers<br />

from Thailand, the United States,<br />

Malaysia and England competing<br />

in it.<br />

The players have three nine-hole<br />

rounds on a shortened course<br />

and Cooper finished tied for first<br />

on one over par. Cooper won the<br />

event in a play-off after he earned<br />

a par and his opponent bogeyed<br />

the hole.<br />

“Dad just told me to hit it<br />

straight off the tee and give myself<br />

the best chance to get on the green<br />

and that’s how it played out,”<br />

Cooper said.<br />

It is Cooper’s first international<br />

tournament win since he started<br />

playing the game when he was<br />

five-years-old. He said he admires<br />

SPORT GROUPS and<br />

recreational users are jostling<br />

for space at the new QE II<br />

Recreation and Sport Centre.<br />

The Coastal -Burwood Community<br />

Board has noted concerns<br />

have been expressed from<br />

recreational pool users over the<br />

closure of the 25m pool for water<br />

polo activities.<br />

Currently there is no access<br />

to the public lane swimming<br />

space in the 25m pool on Monday<br />

night from 7-9.30pm and<br />

Canterbury Golf development<br />

manager Rachel<br />

Thow said Cooper had<br />

been progressing well<br />

with his golf game.<br />

“His handicap has gone<br />

from 22 to 11 over the<br />

past 12 months which is<br />

impressive,” she said.<br />

The trio are part of<br />

the Canterbury Golf<br />

QE II pool space battle<br />

This is due to the pool being<br />

used for water polo activities,<br />

which requires a 2m depth.<br />

A seminar has been planned<br />

which will be attended by the<br />

community board next Wednesday<br />

to evaluate how the first<br />

month of operation at QE II has<br />

gone.<br />

The $38.6 million aquatic<br />

facility has been popular since it<br />

opened last month. As of Friday,<br />

the pool had reached capacity 19<br />

times.<br />

Of those, eight were in the<br />

school holidays. The facility<br />

has a 130m hydroslide, a 25m<br />

lap pool with a movable floor, a<br />

leisure pool with lazy river and<br />

water toys, a learn-to-swim pool,<br />

a hydro-therapy pool, a spa,<br />

sauna and steam room.<br />

City council head of recreation,<br />

sport and events Nigel Cox<br />

said the pool space for the centre<br />

has been very challenging with<br />

the a large number of user<br />

groups requesting space.<br />

He said before the facility<br />

opened there were a number<br />

of user groups operating with<br />

limited space.<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

From halfback to starring at fullback<br />

• By Gordon Findlater<br />

FORMER Christchurch South<br />

Intermediate rugby player Max<br />

Hughes is emerging as a talented<br />

fullback – and it’s not even his<br />

preferred position.<br />

It was a spur of the moment<br />

decision that led the 16-year-old<br />

to sign up for the Christchurch<br />

Boys’ High School rugby trials<br />

in year 9. The move has seen him<br />

show off his talents in the No 15<br />

jersey in the UC Championship.<br />

But when filling out his paper<br />

work for the trials, he was asked<br />

to write down what his second<br />

position was. He had only ever<br />

played halfback, so Hughes<br />

wrote down fullback thinking<br />

nothing of it.<br />

“They ended up playing me at<br />

fullback during my first trial and<br />

I scored a hat-trick so I ended up<br />

playing fullback all of year 9,” he<br />

said.<br />

“It wasn’t until year 10 when<br />

I had a chat with one of my<br />

coaches and explained I’m<br />

actually a halfback.”<br />

The 16-year-old spent last<br />

season as back-up to highlytouted<br />

halfback Louie Chapman.<br />

With another season as the<br />

understudy on the horizon,<br />

Hughes has managed to gain<br />

THEN AND NOW: Max Hughes playing halfback at Christchurch<br />

South Intermediate and now fullback for CBHS ​<br />

more game time at fullback,<br />

which is now comfortably his<br />

second position.<br />

“It’s tough obviously with<br />

Louie at nine. He’s been great to<br />

learn from and is always happy<br />

to help . . . it’s good that the team<br />

have found a second role for me.”<br />

The year 12 student’s ability<br />

in the No 15 jersey was on full<br />

display in May when he was<br />

named man of the match by Sky<br />

TV in CBHS’s 32-16 win over<br />

Christ’s College. Performances<br />

like that saw Hughes selected in<br />

the Crusaders Junior Knights<br />

team that lost to the Chief’s<br />

under-18 side in Hamilton<br />

recently. He came on for the final<br />

15min at halfback.<br />

However, Hughes’ talents<br />

aren’t only being recognised in<br />

the 15-man game. A decision<br />

to play touch rugby over the<br />

summer five years ago because<br />

cricket was becoming “too<br />

boring” appears to be reaping<br />

rewards.<br />

Next month Hughes will travel<br />

to Malaysia to play for the New<br />

Zealand under-18 touch team<br />

against eight other nations,<br />

including Australia, South<br />

Africa and the United States, at<br />

the Youth World Cup.<br />

After playing rugby union<br />

since the age of eight, he took<br />

up touch at age 11 and quickly<br />

found his feet in<br />

the sport, going<br />

on to represent<br />

Canterbury at<br />

under-15, 16, and<br />

more recently at<br />

open level, where<br />

he helped the<br />

men’s team to<br />

third at nationals.<br />

Hughes says his<br />

recent success in<br />

the 15-man code<br />

has been helped<br />

by the level of<br />

footwork and<br />

decision-making<br />

that has come<br />

with playing<br />

touch at a high<br />

level.<br />

Hughes plans<br />

for next year are to make the<br />

No 9 jersey his own. Following<br />

secondary school, he hopes to<br />

be involved in the Crusaders<br />

academy and work his way<br />

through club and representative<br />

rugby.<br />

But if his All Blacks dream<br />

doesn’t come to fruition, he also<br />

has a back-up plan.<br />

“My mum is Japanese, so if<br />

it doesn’t work out here then<br />

playing for Japan could be an<br />

option.”<br />

FOCUS ON HEALTH<br />

The tree of LIFE<br />

New research on Gingko<br />

Biloba excites researchers!<br />

For decades scientists believed brain<br />

damage with age, after a stroke or injury<br />

was irreversible and brain neurons could<br />

not be repaired. In more recent times, new<br />

research has shown that neurons can grow<br />

back with the right conditions and that a<br />

special extract of Gingko Biloba (EGb-761<br />

or TEBONIN) has been clinically found to<br />

assist in this. The implications for stroke<br />

recovery are obvious, but researchers also<br />

know many of us suffer from undetected<br />

“micro-strokes” that over a period of time<br />

slowly reduce<br />

our cognitive<br />

function.<br />

TEBONIN<br />

is prescribed<br />

worldwide<br />

as a natural<br />

supportive agent<br />

for a healthy brain<br />

and cognitive<br />

function.<br />

It supports<br />

healthy mental<br />

performance,<br />

concentration,<br />

focus, alertness,<br />

motor function<br />

and to help with<br />

many conditions<br />

including tinnitus<br />

(ringing and noise<br />

in the ears), vertigo and normal balance.<br />

TEBONIN improves micro-circulation<br />

and helps the blood flow reach those<br />

critical places it needs to get. It is a potent<br />

anti-oxidant and makes the red blood<br />

cells more pliable and capillary walls more<br />

flexible.<br />

TEBONIN is one of the most widely<br />

studied and researched herbal products in<br />

the world and is the only Ginkgo biloba<br />

extract manufactured via a patented<br />

multi-step extraction process. Each small<br />

tablet contains a highly concentrated<br />

50:1 extract to give you a therapeutic<br />

clinical dose without having to take a large<br />

amount of the herb. Of 25 Gingko biloba<br />

products on the market, and tested by a<br />

major medical journal, only TEBONIN<br />

passed all five of the test requirements.<br />

Ten brands didn’t meet any requirements<br />

and the rest didn’t pass more than three<br />

out of five requirements. TEBONIN is<br />

the only Gingko biloba extract shown<br />

to activated all areas of the brain and is<br />

considered the gold standard in Gingko.<br />

TEBONIN has been trusted by millions<br />

of consumers worldwide for over 30<br />

years with more than 8,000,000 tablets<br />

consumed each day.<br />

TEBONIN and further information<br />

is available from the Natural Health<br />

Advisers at Marshall’s Health & Natural<br />

Therapy in New Brighton. PH: 388-5757.<br />

The importance of<br />

good blood pressure?<br />

Blood Pressure is an<br />

indicator of cardiovascular<br />

as well as overall health.<br />

Healthy blood flow is vital for<br />

a healthy body as the blood<br />

plasma transports nutrients,<br />

hormones, metabolic waste,<br />

oxygen and CO2 throughout<br />

the body. An area in the brain<br />

keeps check on blood flow<br />

to ensure health of all cells<br />

and the organs they make up.<br />

If blood flow is reduced the<br />

brain will try to normalise<br />

blood flow by adjusting the<br />

heart strength, frequency<br />

(Pulse Rate) as well as the width of blood<br />

vessels all via the central nervous system.<br />

Over a period of time the blood pressure<br />

may increase due to the deterioration of<br />

blood flow and other factors. A higher B/P<br />

is not ideal and is considered a major risk<br />

factor for strokes, aneurysm, organ failure<br />

and heart failure. Even moderate elevation<br />

of B/P is considered a major reason for<br />

shorter life expectancy. If we can maintain<br />

our B/P in the normal range our overall<br />

health will be improved. Systolic B/P (The<br />

upper figure) is when the heart contracts<br />

and pushes blood around the body. Ideally<br />

at rest this should be between 100 to 120.<br />

The diastolic B/P (The lower figure) is the<br />

pressure in the arteries between beats and<br />

ideally at rest this should be between 60<br />

to 70.<br />

BOOST BRAIN<br />

PERFORMANCE UP TO 30%<br />

TEBONIN is the No 1 Ginkgo Biloba extract in the World with more than 8 million tablets<br />

being consumed every day. It is also the most researched herbal extract with more than 60<br />

controlled clinical studies & over 400 scientific studies. It has been shown to have excellent<br />

efficacy, safety & tolerability. Millions of consumers have trusted TEBONIN for over 30<br />

years to support blood flow, capillary health, brain health & performance.<br />

Studies on TEBONIN Show:<br />

- Improved Brain Performance & Function up to 30%. This includes improvement<br />

in mental sharpness, focus, attention, concentration, understanding, memory & recall.<br />

- Reduces errors made & mental stress.<br />

- The only Ginkgo shown to increase activity in all areas of the brain. Can help restore<br />

brain function after a brain injury such as from a stroke.<br />

- Helps relieve tinnitus (ringing & noise in the ears), vertigo, dizziness & supports normal<br />

balance.<br />

- Improves blood flow to all areas of the body.<br />

- Reduces plaque formation in the blood vessels.<br />

- Protective effect against eyes damage caused by light.<br />

It has been found in around 90% of<br />

cases high blood pressure is caused by<br />

an increase in the resistance to blood<br />

flow in the blood vessels. It is believed<br />

inflammation, plaque build-up and<br />

stiffness of the blood vessels are major<br />

reasons for this increased resistance.<br />

Checking our blood pressure on a<br />

regular basis allows us to adjust our diet,<br />

supplements and lifestyle and to see the<br />

benefits in our B/P readings.<br />

supplements and further information<br />

how’s your blood pressure?<br />

Keeping our blood pressure (B/P) in the normal range is a positive sign of good health. The higher the B/P above normal the more<br />

likely we may suffer a stroke, aneurysm, organ failure or heart attack. Even moderate elevation of B/P can lead to shortened life<br />

Joint pain: Do I have arthritis or<br />

could it be mainly my muscles?<br />

The team at Physical Sense in Sydenham sees clients with<br />

a range of symptoms but many of their middle-aged and<br />

senior clients visit complaining of pain in one of their joints.<br />

Physiotherapist Ietje van Stolk suggests<br />

that a major part of the pain could be due<br />

to muscle pain rather than simply arthritis.<br />

“Even if an x-ray shows arthritis, the reason<br />

for the pain may be the muscles around<br />

the joint,” she explains. The images show<br />

how a muscle knot (the crosses) in a back<br />

muscle can give hip pain (aches and pain<br />

are the red areas in the drawings), a knot<br />

in a muscle on the back of the shoulder<br />

blade can give a deep pain in the front of<br />

the shoulder and a muscle knot all the way<br />

near the groin can give an ache in the knee<br />

(especially at night in bed).<br />

Ietje recalls one case where an 89 year<br />

old client with severe arthritis who walked<br />

with a stick, told her, “I will end up in<br />

a wheelchair, I cannot put any weight<br />

through my right leg due to pain in my hip<br />

and buttock”. “Within 4 treatments, she<br />

was walking with her stick but without the<br />

severe pain,” says Ietje. “The arthritis was<br />

one of the factors that made her muscles<br />

spasm but the other was that older people<br />

move less and the flexed position the hip<br />

is in when we sit is particularly bad for<br />

the hip.” Ietje is happy with the fact that<br />

although the client was 89 and could have<br />

been “given up on” or told to live with the<br />

pain, she made a difference to her health<br />

and wellbeing.<br />

The same lack of movement can be the<br />

reason for your knee pain or your shoulder<br />

pain and the same few treatments could<br />

make a huge difference for you.<br />

At Physical Sense, hands-on techniques<br />

(massage and triggerpoint deactivation<br />

techniques) are used to release the muscles.<br />

The client also gets a home exercise<br />

program designed to mobilize and stretch<br />

the joint, strengthen the important core<br />

muscles and increase general strength and<br />

SHOULDER<br />

PAIN<br />

KNEE PAIN<br />

(the crosses are the areas of the muscle spasms, the red areas is where the pain is felt)<br />

balance. They teach a movement sequence<br />

that stretches the joint in all directions<br />

whilst the client is able to lie safely on their<br />

bed, perfect for older or less mobile clients.<br />

In many cases having the muscles<br />

released and being taught how to maintain<br />

it, is enough to stay on top of the problem.<br />

HIP PAIN<br />

If severe arthritis is the underlying cause,<br />

some maintenance therapy may be<br />

necessary, but that is often more affordable<br />

and, for older patients, better tolerated than<br />

surgery. In very few treatments the client<br />

will know if it is going to work for them or<br />

not, without financial commitment.<br />

Physical Sense Gym and Physio is located at 300 Colombo Street, Sydenham. The Blue Line Bus stops in front of the door and there is ample<br />

parking. To enquire about specialised exercise classes or physiotherapy treatment, phone 377-2577 or visit www.triggerpoints.co.nz

WORKSAFE NEW Zealand<br />

has b en a proached in a bid to<br />

fina ly repair the potholes in New<br />

Brighton’s Hawke St car park.<br />

Coastal-Burw od Ward city<br />

counci lor David East wants<br />

WorkSafe to pre sure the car<br />

park’s private owners into<br />

repairing the potholes which are<br />

a “trip and vehicle” hazard.<br />

WorkSafe chief inspector<br />

a se sment southern Da ren<br />

Handforth said it may be able to<br />

take action under the Health and<br />

Safety at Work Act 2015, “as a<br />

person conducting a busine s or<br />

undertaking.”<br />

Mr Handforth said WorkSafe<br />

is aware of the concerns raised by<br />

Cr East abou the car park.<br />

“WorkSafe has completed<br />

an a se sment visi to the site<br />

and is engaging with the owner<br />

to advise them that it is their<br />

responsibility to manage their<br />

risks a propriately.”<br />

Different parts of the car park<br />

are owned by various people<br />

and the Coastal-Burw od<br />

Community Board recently<br />

wrote to them about its concerns<br />

around health and safety.<br />

Cr East said the bi gest i sue<br />

in the past has b en ge ting in<br />

touch with the landlords and<br />

owners and ge ting them to<br />

agr e to anything. “The board<br />

a preciates that multi-ownership<br />

of the parking space may present<br />

a difficulty in co-ordinating<br />

repair/resurfacing but felt obliged<br />

to pa s these concerns onto you,”<br />

said the le ter.<br />

One reply has b en received so<br />

far from an owner who is wi ling<br />

to discu s the i sue. However, a l<br />

the owners would have to agr e<br />

to undertake work.<br />

Cr East said there had b en<br />

a “number of incidences” in<br />

the car park of people injuring<br />

themselves whic had gone<br />

unreported.<br />

“I’ve always though that it<br />

has b en quite amazing that we<br />

haven’t had any serious a cidents<br />

or senior citizens perhaps<br />

tri ping in those potholes and<br />

doing themselve some damage.”<br />

He is confiden the new<br />

a proach wi l bring results.<br />

“I think the WorkSafe<br />

involvement may prove to be the<br />

lever that we are l oking for.”<br />

New bid to fix potholes<br />

THE PAPANUI-I nes<br />

Community Board has taken the<br />

rare step of starting a petition<br />

to figh the city council over<br />

funding.<br />

Signatures are being co lected<br />

in a bid to get funding for a community<br />

facility in Shirley.<br />

It comes after the city council<br />

removed funding for the centre<br />

pla ned for Shirley Rd, near the<br />

intersection with Hi ls Rd. This<br />

was the site of the former community<br />

centre, which was badly<br />

damaged in the February 2,<br />

20 1, earthquake.<br />

The removal o funding<br />

prompted community board<br />

chairwoman Ali Jones to threaten<br />

to stan down, citing it as her “die<br />

in the ditch” project.<br />

Ms Jone said the board’s role<br />

is to represen the community,<br />

and by gathering signatures from<br />

residents, it was fulfi ling that<br />

role.<br />

“One of the roles of a community<br />

board is to represent and act<br />

as advocate for the interests of its<br />

community and this is what we<br />

are doing. The LTP and a nual<br />

plans are a l about lo bying the<br />

A W OLSTON butcher proved<br />

to be a cut above the rest in an<br />

international competition.<br />

New World Fe ry Rd butcher<br />

Jeremy Garth and his team, the<br />

Pure South Sharp Blacks, recently<br />

came second a the World<br />

Butchers’ Cha lenge in Northern<br />

Ireland.<br />

It was the firs time Mr Garth<br />

had competed in the cha lenge<br />

and he was “rea ly proud” of<br />

how the team performed.<br />

“We produced some top quality<br />

products and came away<br />

with a g od result so we’re very<br />

ha py,” he said.<br />

The preparation for this year’s<br />

World Butchers’ Cha lenge was<br />

intense as the team members<br />

met in Auckland every two<br />

months for lengthy w ekend<br />

practices.<br />

Mr Garth, who has b en a<br />

butcher for 14 years, said the<br />

competition brought back his<br />

pa sion for the job.<br />

“Doing a l thi stuff and<br />

m eting new people, s eing new<br />

ideas, it just brings that flair<br />

back for you,” he said.<br />

Mr Gart hopes t own a<br />

butcher shop of his own someday<br />

but says for now he wi l focus<br />

on ge ting mor experience<br />

and on the 2020 cha lenge.<br />

“In two years’ time, we’ l be<br />

going back to try and win the<br />

title,” he said.<br />

A CRACKDOWN on mobile<br />

However, the public has li tle<br />

interest in having input into the<br />

Only eight submi sions were<br />

received for a potential bylaw<br />

aimed at regulating commercial<br />

activities in public places.<br />

The district council wi l be<br />

holding a hearing for the Public<br />

Places Bylaw and Policy on Commercial<br />

Activities and Events in<br />

Public Places.<br />

A hearing i scheduled to be<br />

held on Thursday.<br />

The bylaw comes as an increasing<br />

number of mobile traders<br />

are s eking t operate in Selwyn,<br />

especia ly during the summer<br />

months.<br />

In the past year, the district<br />

council has received five inquiries<br />

about se ting up a mobile busine s<br />

on private or public land.<br />

A report said there are two<br />

The New Zealand Mounted<br />

Rifles Charitable Trust president<br />

Mark A pleton and member<br />

Mike Donaldson t ok their<br />

horses to the sch ol on Monday,<br />

in a bid to educate pupils on the<br />

sacrifice their ancestors made in<br />

World War 1 and World War 2.<br />

their horses Tommy and Kruze<br />

wore 1 0-year-old sa dles donated<br />

to the trust.<br />

The presentation is a prelude<br />

to the Gr endale Recreation Reserve<br />

Management Commi t e’s<br />

upcoming Anzac Day service.<br />

As a tribute to those who<br />

served, members of the trust wi l<br />

ride horseback to the service.<br />

Mr A pleton said it was<br />

important children were<br />

educated on what soldiers<br />

wen through during World<br />

War 1 and World War 2.<br />

But he said the presentation<br />

didn’t go into t o much detail<br />

and was more of a “show and<br />

the soldiers l oked like.<br />

Children were shown the type<br />

of kits horses were required to<br />

AN U PER Ri carton butcher<br />

has proven himself to be a cut<br />

above his Au sie rivals at an<br />

international competition.<br />

Elite Meats owner Corey<br />

Winder was named in the a l<br />

star team a the World Butchers’<br />

Cha lenge in Northern Ireland.<br />

Mr Winder and his team, the<br />

Pure South Sharp Blacks, which<br />

includes W olston butcher<br />

Jeremy Garth, finished second<br />

in the competition.<br />

He said the cha lenge started<br />

as a “transtasman test match”<br />

seven years ago.<br />

The preparation for this<br />

year’s World Butchers’ Challenge<br />

was intense as the team<br />

members met in Auckland<br />

every two months for lengthy<br />

w ekend practices. Mr Winder<br />

said coming second against 1<br />

other countries was a “fantastic”<br />

result.<br />

“To get second behind Ireland<br />

was a huge achievement and to<br />

be ahead of Australia is an<br />

even bi ger thing for us,” he<br />

said.<br />

But Mr Winder admires the<br />

Australian team.<br />

“Those guys over there<br />

[Australia] are on top of their<br />

game, they do a g od job,” he<br />

said.<br />

“And it just showcases that<br />

New Zealand has got some<br />

of the best butchers in the<br />

world,” he said.<br />

Mr Winder has b en a butcher<br />

from the city council to make a<br />

submi sion if Fulton Hogan a plies<br />

for a resource consen to create a<br />

Board chairman Mike Mora<br />

told Western News the submi sion<br />

would likely o pose Fulton Hogan’s<br />

plan.<br />

“You can just about guarant e<br />

it . . because we [the community<br />

board] don’t believe qua ries<br />

should be so close to residential<br />

areas,” he said.<br />

Mr Mora said he wasn’t sure if<br />

the city council would endorse the<br />

board’ submi sion.<br />

“I’d like to think so because the<br />

city council has had their eyes<br />

open as we l ove recent years over<br />

Mr Mora said the community<br />

board wi l be “representing and<br />

IT COULD be some time before<br />

charges are laid in relation to the<br />

fatal hit-and-run in Dallington.<br />

Detective Senior Sergeant Greg<br />

Cottam said yesterday the vehicle<br />

involved in the crash last week<br />

was still being examined.<br />

He said there was still a lot of<br />

work to do to gather all the information<br />

and finish police inquiries<br />

before any charges would be laid.<br />

“They can take some time,” he<br />

said.<br />

“We’ve got six months to lay<br />

charges in relation to traffic offending<br />

– it certainly won’t take<br />

that long.”<br />

walking his dogs at<br />

Thursday.<br />

He died in hospital<br />

from his injuries on Friday.<br />

His funeral was held on Tuesday.<br />

Police found the vehicle<br />

involved, which had damage<br />

consistent with the crash, on Saturday.<br />

A detective saw it parked<br />

up a driveway.<br />

The vehicle’s owner, who was<br />

driving, has been interviewed by<br />

police.<br />

Detective Senior Sergeant Cottam<br />
