liquor store<br />

gets the<br />

green light<br />

• By Jess Gibson<br />

A LIQUOR store planned for<br />

Redcliffs Village has got the<br />

go-ahead.<br />

The district licensing<br />

committee released its decision<br />

on Monday, which gives Rizak<br />

Enterprises Ltd the green light to<br />

set up an off-licence at 1/87 Main<br />

Rd.<br />

The committee’s decision<br />

includes changes to Rizak<br />

Enterprises Ltd sole director<br />

and shareholder Juraj Singh’s<br />

application based on submissions<br />

in opposition to the proposal.<br />

The changes included labelling<br />

the store Redcliffs Fine Wine and<br />

Spirits instead of Thirsty Liquor,<br />

CCTV security inside<br />

and outside the store and no<br />

alcohol advertising outside the<br />

building.<br />

Its opening hours will also be<br />

reduced from 9am-10pm to 9am-<br />

9pm, Monday to Sunday.<br />

A hearing was held in May<br />

after 46 written submissions<br />

were made in opposition to the<br />

off-licence, with nine people<br />

making verbal submissions.<br />

A petition containing the<br />

names of 97 people opposing the<br />

store was also presented at the<br />

hearing.<br />

get in touch<br />

from the editor’s desk<br />

IT’S BEEN a long drawn-out saga but the<br />

liquor store planned for Redcliffs will go<br />

ahead (see page 1).<br />

That’s pending any appeal those who were<br />

against it might decide to lodge.<br />

It’s not overly surprising the liquor store got the green light<br />

from the district licensing committee.<br />

There was vocal opposition to the liquor store and those people<br />

carried that through to the hearing by making submissions.<br />

The company behind the liquor store said it would not be your<br />

normal suburban bottle shop.<br />

So the licensing committee has held it to that pledge by<br />

restricting signage. There won’t be flashy colourful signs<br />

advertising all sorts of products, which should keep the look of<br />

the store in line with the rest of the village.<br />

Swastika joke turns sour<br />

Comedian<br />

pushed after<br />

punchline<br />

• By Louis Day<br />

A COMEDIAN was grabbed<br />

by the back of the head and<br />

pushed after he made a joke<br />

about white supremacists during<br />

a show.<br />

During Simon Kingsley-<br />

Holmes’ set at the Madeira Hotel<br />

in Akaroa he made a joke about<br />

playing scrabble with a white<br />

supremacist.<br />

Kingsley-Holmes then pulled a<br />

scrabble board from his bag with<br />

the tiles arranged in the shape<br />

of a swastika and delivered the<br />

punchline: “What a prick, he<br />

glued all the tiles to the board.”<br />

He also made reference to<br />

finding a swastika in a public<br />

toilet in Timaru.<br />

The comedian has steered clear<br />

of swastika-related jokes since<br />

the March 15 mosque shootings.<br />

But when he did his set on June<br />

15, he thought enough<br />

time had passed to reintroduce<br />

white supremacist-related<br />

material into his act.<br />

REACTION: Comedian Simon<br />

Kingsley-Holmes thought<br />

enough time had passed<br />

since the March 15 mosque<br />

shootings to reintroduce white<br />

supremacist-related material<br />

into his act.<br />

re-enter.<br />

“We ascertained he was<br />

offended about something about<br />

World War 2, even though<br />

he kept saying World War 1,”<br />

Kingsley-Holmes said.<br />

He said the incident had not<br />

put him off doing a similar<br />

routine in the future.<br />

“It might be a while longer till<br />

I do a joke like that in the heart<br />

of Christchurch but I am at<br />

peace with what the joke is, I’m<br />

not bothered about him being<br />

offended by it.”<br />

SPEED LIMITS<br />

THe public has until Monday<br />

to have a say on speed limits<br />

in Sumner. The city council is<br />

proposing to change the speed<br />

limit in Sumner Village from<br />

50km/h to 30km/h and slow<br />

traffic on residential roads to<br />

40km/h. After the consultation<br />

closes the Linwood-Central-<br />

Heathcote Community Board<br />

will consider the comments<br />

and make a recommendation<br />

to the city council. To make a<br />

submission, visit: https://ccc.govt.<br />

nz/the-council/consultationsand-submissions/haveyoursay/<br />

show/246. Meanwhile, a 60km/h<br />

speed limit will be introduced<br />

on Summit Rd and its side<br />

streets. The 60km/h limit will<br />

cover Summit Rd, Evans Pass<br />

Rd, Sumner Rd, Mt Pleasant Rd,<br />

The reductions were a result of<br />

safety concerns and anti-social<br />

behaviour in the area.<br />

Thank you for<br />

helping your<br />

Fall Zones<br />

community<br />

To all of you who have had your<br />

trees trimmed before they became<br />

a problem, thank you for keeping all<br />

the families in your community warm,<br />

happy, healthy and connected.<br />

You can be proud of the fact that you have allowed your<br />

neighbours to stay warm, cook dinner and even charge<br />

their mobile phones. You may not have realised that what<br />

you’ve done has had much impact, but from all of us here<br />

at Orion, we just want to say thank you.<br />

Notice and Growth limit zones<br />

B<br />

A<br />

Power line voltage A. Growth limit zone B. Notice zone<br />

66,000 volts 4.0m 5.0m<br />

33,000 volts 2.5m 3.5m<br />

11,000 volts 1.6m 2.6m<br />

400/230 volts 0.5m 1.5m<br />

We’re not exaggerating.<br />

On our network, 10-20% of all unplanned power outages are<br />

caused by trees — including vegetation — coming into contact<br />

with power lines. Other than this, fire damage to property from<br />

branches sparking in dry conditions and serious injury from<br />

electrocution from contact with trees touching power lines are<br />

also possible consequences of not maintaining your trees.<br />

How close is too close?<br />

While most damage is caused by trees falling on power lines,<br />

significant risk exists from trees merely touching them. This risk<br />

increases the higher the voltage of the power line.<br />

The minimum distances that must be maintained between trees<br />

and power lines, as defined in the Electricity (Hazards from<br />

Trees) Regulations 20<strong>03</strong>, are outlined in the diagrams above.<br />

All vegetation should be kept out of the growth limit zone and<br />

preferably the notice zone.<br />

Sometimes it may not be practical to have a tree trimmed at the<br />

rate at which it grows and unfortunately, this means it may need<br />

to be removed. Other situations may require trees to be removed,<br />

most commonly when they are at a high risk of falling due to<br />

disease or adverse weather events.<br />

Where do I start?<br />

Before you begin, remember to keep yourself, and those around<br />

you, safe. We recognise that not everyone is experienced in tree<br />

trimming and are happy to advise you on what to do. We can arrange<br />

for trees near power lines to be trimmed at your expense, however<br />

we recommend you hire professionals to safely carry out the work.<br />

If you or someone working for you intends to work within four<br />

metres of power lines, a close approach consent is required from<br />

Orion before you start. As a tree owner, you may be liable for any<br />

damage caused by carrying out trimming or felling of trees.<br />

Will I be fined if I don’t comply?<br />

If a cut or trim notice is given to you and you fail to have the tree<br />

trimmed and/or advise us of the time and location of the trim<br />

without a reasonable excuse, this is an offence. This will make you<br />

liable for a fine not exceeding $10,000. If the offence continues,<br />

you will be liable for a further fine of not more than $500 for every<br />

day or part day during which the offence continues.<br />

More info can be found on our website and if<br />

you have any questions or notice any trees<br />

touching power lines in your area, please call<br />

us on <strong>03</strong> 363 9898 or 0800 363 9898.<br />

LAUGH<br />

AT INTERNATIONAL<br />

THE<br />

COMEDY NIGHT<br />

Boy racers cause carnage<br />

across peninsula during tribute drive<br />

• By Jess Gibson<br />

A CONVOY of more than 200<br />

boy racers caused damage across<br />

Banks Peninsula in a drive<br />

which paid tribute to a man who<br />

recently died.<br />

Vehicles<br />

gathered in<br />

the car park of<br />

Mitre 10 MEGA<br />

Ferrymead<br />

and travelled<br />

to Akaroa,<br />

stopping at<br />

Graham<br />

Barrell<br />

points along<br />

the way to do<br />

burnouts.<br />

Police received about 20 reports<br />

of the convoy.<br />

A police spokesperson said the<br />

first report was in Ferrymead<br />

about 9.45pm, and the last was<br />

in Teddington about 12.30am on<br />

Saturday morning.<br />

“Police attended and spoke<br />

with some of those involved but<br />

no arrests were made.”<br />

Community parks manager Al<br />

Hardy said the city council noticed<br />

an increase in parks-related<br />

damage over that weekend.<br />

“Between Saturday, June 22,<br />

and Tuesday, June 25,we received<br />

three calls to notify us of damage<br />

to Ferrymead and Barnett Parks,<br />

as well as Allandale Reserve.<br />

<strong>2019</strong><br />

CONVOY: A video posted on an event page showed a large<br />

number of vehicles outside Mitre 10 MEGA Ferrymead ready<br />

to convoy over to Akaroa.<br />

Damage included tyre marks on<br />

the field, and bollards and cables<br />

pulled out of the ground,” Mr<br />

Hardy said.<br />

“Council will work to repair<br />

the damage to the parks as soon<br />

as possible.”<br />

Residents took to Facebook to<br />

share photos of the damage in<br />

Governors <strong>Bay</strong>.<br />

At Allandale Reserve the grass<br />

had been ripped up by spinning<br />

tyres, a drinking fountain was<br />

leaking, a rubbish bin was<br />

the Gebbies Garden Cafe on<br />

Christchurch Akaroa Rd.<br />

Allandale Reserve<br />

Management Committee acting<br />

chairman Graham Barrell<br />

was “disappointed with the<br />

vandalism.”<br />

“I drove past and saw that<br />

the post which held the chain<br />

to keep vehicles out had been<br />

smashed over and the ground<br />

was covered in tyre tracks,” Mr<br />

Barrell said.<br />

Banks Peninsula Community<br />

Board deputy chairman Tyrone<br />

Fields was told about a “huge<br />

amount of litter” at Teddington<br />

the following morning.<br />

Mr Fields said boy racing is<br />

an “acknowledged problem”<br />

across Banks Peninsula and<br />

damage caused by vehicles,<br />

such as burnouts, are “not<br />

uncommon.”<br />

On an event page for those<br />

taking part in the convoy,<br />

a comment about damaged<br />

road signs called it “disgusting<br />

behaviour” and said the night<br />

was not meant to be about<br />

Road work<br />

continues in<br />

Sumner Village<br />

• By Jess Gibson<br />

THE NEXT step in the delivery of<br />

the Sumner Village Master Plan is<br />

under way.<br />

Contractors are pouring new<br />

kerbs and gutters on parts of Burgess<br />

St, sealing Burgess St, preparing<br />

to pave the south side of Marriner<br />

St and finishing off installing<br />

the water main and stormwater<br />

pipes along Wakefield Ave.<br />

Marriner St east will open and<br />

close intermittently but contractors<br />

will try and keep it open to traffic as<br />

much as possible.<br />

A one-way system will start today<br />

to enable the final road reconstruction<br />

work between the Hollywood<br />

Theatre and the skate ramp.<br />

This means traffic heading to the<br />

city from Sumner will be detoured<br />

through Nayland St west and the<br />

city-bound bus stop will shift back<br />

to Nayland St.<br />

Contractors will finish installing<br />

the new stormwater and water<br />

pipes through the Nayland St/<br />

the day, starting this week.<br />

Vehicles are advised to slow down<br />

and follow signage and instructions<br />

Peter Buttigieg - Shortest Way<br />

Home One Mayor’s Challenge and a Model<br />

for America’s Future. By Peter Buttigieg<br />

Once described by The Washington Post as “the most interesting<br />

mayor you’ve never heard of”, Pete Buttigieg, the thirty-six-year-old<br />

Democratic mayor of South Bend, Indiana, has improbably emerged<br />

as one of the US’s most visionary politicians. First elected in 2011,<br />

Buttigieg left a successful business career to move back to his<br />

hometown, previously tagged by Newsweek as a “dying city”, because<br />

the industrial Midwest beckoned as a challenge to the McKinseytrained<br />

Harvard graduate. Whether meeting with city residents on<br />

middle-school basketball courts, reclaiming abandoned houses,<br />

confronting gun violence, or attracting high-tech industry, Buttigieg has<br />

transformed South Bend into a shining model of urban reinvention.<br />

Shortest Way Home interweaves two once-unthinkable success<br />

stories: that of an Afghanistan veteran who came out and found love<br />

and acceptance, all while in office, and that of a Rust Belt city so<br />

thoroughly transformed that it shatters the way we view America’s<br />

so-called flyover country.<br />

Queens of the Kingdom<br />

The Women of Saudi Arabia Speak.<br />

By Nicola Sutcliff<br />

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is one of the most mysterious and secretive<br />

societies in modern times and the lives of the women living there is<br />

perhaps the most intriguing aspect of all. What do the women of Saudi<br />

Arabia really think about their lives? What are their hopes and dreams?<br />

To separate fact from fiction, Nicola Sutcliff spent four years living in the<br />

Kingdom, meeting and interviewing women of all ages and from all walks<br />

of life. Their stories are presented here and paint a portrait of a country that<br />

appears to be on the cusp of change.<br />

In this collection of essays, the women talk candidly about their lives<br />

and their hopes for the future. Meet Hafsa, a Bedouin who gave birth to<br />

eleven children in the open desert; Jamila, the first wife in a polygamous<br />

household; Jamila, a medical student who married a stranger in order to<br />

pursue her education. Meet these and many other women and learn what<br />

they think about subjects as diverse as education, driving, the religious<br />

police, male guardianship, social media, women’s rights, love and<br />

marriage, underground parties, under-the-abaya fashion and sexuality.<br />

Authentic, eye-opening, inspiring and courageous, they capture the<br />

essence of what it is like to be a woman living in Saudi Arabia today.<br />

Dame Vera Lynn – Some Sunny Day<br />

The remarkable autobiography of the last<br />

great wartime icon. By Vera Lynn<br />

Born Vera Welch on 20 March, 1917 in the East End of London,<br />

Dame Vera Lynn’s career was set from an early age - along with her<br />

father, who also did a ‘turn’, she sang in Working Men’s Clubs from<br />

just seven years old. She had a successful radio career with Joe Loss<br />

and Charlie Kunz in the 1920s and ‘30s, but it was with World War II<br />

that she became the iconic figure that captured the imagination of the<br />

national public. Her spirit and verve, along with her ability to connect<br />

with the men fighting for their country and those left behind praying for<br />

their loved ones, made her the ‘Forces’ sweetheart’. Her career after<br />

the war flourished, with hits in the US and the UK, but Vera was never<br />

able to leave behind her wartime role and was deeply affected by what<br />

she had seen. Still heavily involved with veteran and other charities,<br />

this is Dame Vera’s vivid story of her life and her war - from bombs<br />

and rations to dance halls and the searing heat of her appearances<br />

abroad. Epitomising British fortitude and hope, Dame Vera gives a vivid<br />

portrait of Britain at war, and a unique story of one woman who came to<br />

symbolize a nation.<br />

Chanel’s Riviera<br />

Life, Love and the Struggle for Survival on the<br />

Cote d’Azur, 1930-1944. By Anne de Courcy<br />

Far from worrying about the onset of war, in the spring of 1938 the<br />

burning question on the French Riviera was whether one should curtsey<br />

to the Duchess of Windsor. Few of those who had settled there thought<br />

much about what was going on in the rest of Europe. It was a golden,<br />

glamorous life, far removed from politics or conflict.<br />

Featuring a sparkling cast of artists, writers and historical figures<br />

including Winston Churchill, Daisy Fellowes, Salvador Dali, the Duke<br />

and Duchess of Windsor, Eileen Gray and Edith Wharton, with the<br />

enigmatic Coco Chanel at its heart. A captivating account of a period that<br />

saw some of the deepest extremes of luxury and terror in the whole of<br />

the twentieth century.<br />

From Chanel’s first summer at her Roquebrune villa La Pausa (in the<br />

later years with her German lover) amid the glamour of the pre-war<br />

parties and casinos in Antibes, Nice and Cannes to the horrors of<br />

evacuation and the displacement of thousands of families during the<br />

Second World War, it explores the fascinating world of the Cote d’Azur<br />

elite in the 1930s and 1940s.<br />

LYTTELTON RESIDENTS can<br />

have their say on a proposal to<br />

develop Naval Point.<br />

The two options open for public<br />

feedback focus on site enhancement,<br />

improved accessibility and<br />

greater recreational safety – on<br />

and off the water.<br />

Option two also proposes that<br />

the city council acquires a 1.2ha<br />

block to help reconfigure the<br />

Naval Point site.<br />

Head of parks Andrew Rutledge<br />

said the options have been<br />

developed following discussions<br />

with key stakeholders, working<br />

with Rāpaki Marae and considerable<br />

site research.<br />

“We want to further develop<br />

the water-focused recreational<br />

space and ensure easy harbour<br />

access that everyone can enjoy,<br />

along with improved boating<br />

safety. We also want to improve<br />

the existing recreational facilities<br />

already based in the area,” Mr<br />

Rutledge said.<br />

“Naval Point is one of the few<br />

all-tide water access points for<br />

Christchurch.<br />

“Coupled with its rare, flat recreational<br />

area, it is a major drawcard<br />

for water sports enthusiasts,<br />

and we need to carefully weigh<br />

up development options based on<br />

an array of community views.<br />

“Once we have a preferred<br />

option, we can then carry out<br />

detailed planning and costings<br />

for the Naval Point Development<br />

Plan, which will go out for further<br />

public consultation in 2020.”<br />

Under both options, the waterfront<br />

area will be reorganised to<br />

improve access and safety.<br />

Parking areas will be upgraded<br />

and the present public ramp expanded.<br />

It is proposed the Naval<br />

Point Club and the Coastguard<br />

will share a new facility that more<br />

fully meets the needs of both<br />

organisations.<br />

Space will also be set aside for<br />

the possible future development<br />

of a multi-sport court area at the<br />

PROPOSAL: Feedback is being sought on development options<br />

for Naval Point.<br />

while potential recreational<br />

activity zones are also up for<br />

Both options do not include the<br />

it is proposed that a small section<br />

be retained as a public jetty.<br />

Pupils plant 750 natives<br />

at Sumnervale Reserve<br />

• By Jess Gibson<br />

SUMNER SCHOOL pupils helped plant<br />

750 native grasses, shrubs and trees in<br />

Sumnervale Reserve on June 22.<br />

With help from the city council’s rangers,<br />

about 220 pupils in years 5 to 8 were<br />

involved in the first phase of a three-year<br />

project which will eventually include the<br />

whole school.<br />

The project was set up by the city council,<br />

Group and the Sumner Valley Riding<br />

School. It will eventually improve water<br />

quality in the stream and increase habitat<br />

in the valley.<br />

MAORI New Year was celebrated at Busy<br />

C’s Preschool in Lyttelton with an evening<br />

filled with songs, stories and food.<br />

The Matariki event is a highlight on the<br />

pre-school’s calendar each year, with children<br />

and their families dressing up for the<br />

evening in pyjamas and dressing-gowns.<br />

This year the kids performed a play to tell<br />

a story about children who plant trees to<br />

provide food for native birds.<br />

It was written by one of the teachers,<br />

Frances Sommer, and tied in with Busy C’s<br />

Enviroschool curriculum.<br />

It aims to familiarise and encourage empathy<br />

with the native species in the area.<br />

“Tamariki have loved researching our<br />

local native flora and fauna, and creating<br />

the props and costumes for this play. They<br />

are very keen to perform for their whanau<br />

and friends,” said service provider Caro<br />

Davidson.<br />

Deputy principal Rebecca Power said<br />

the day was an opportunity for pupils to<br />

be connected and involved over a period<br />

of time in their local community and<br />

environment.<br />

“The pupils all know the Sumnervale<br />

Reserve and can relate to this local environmental<br />

opportunity to do something<br />

in their own backyard. The planting day<br />

was exciting for them as they could immediately<br />

see they had helped to make a<br />

difference.”<br />

Selwyn Sounds ‘strongest line-up yet’<br />

THE LINE-UP for the next<br />

Selwyn Sounds rock festival is<br />

being touted as the best ever.<br />

Iconic Australian band<br />

Icehouse will headline the<br />

Lincoln Domain event on March<br />

7. Tickets go on sale at midnight<br />

on Thursday at<br />

www.selwynsounds.co.nz.<br />

Said promoter David Parlane:<br />

“This will be the fourth year<br />

of Selwyn Sounds and this is<br />

the best and strongest lineup<br />

yet with three incredible<br />

international acts.”<br />

“Icehouse hasn’t played in<br />

Christchurch since 1991, so very<br />

proud to bring them to Lincoln<br />

to play at Selwyn Sounds.”<br />

The line-up will also feature<br />

international acts 10cc, Midge<br />

Ure, who is the voice of Ultravox,<br />

and Kiwi bands Zed, The<br />

Mockers, Automatic 80s and Jed<br />

Parsons.<br />

Icehouse was formed by Iva<br />

Davies, the band’s frontman and<br />

musical creative force, who led<br />

the band to 28 platinum albums,<br />

eight top 10 albums and more<br />

than 30 top 40 singles, including<br />

Great Southern Land, Hey Little<br />

Girl, Crazy, Electric Blue, and We<br />

Can Get Together.<br />

“The band has been playing<br />

together for more than 40 years,<br />

selling out shows around the<br />

world, including their last New<br />

Zealand tour, selling out three<br />

shows in record times to 45,000<br />

people and rave reviews,” said Mr<br />

Parlane.<br />

“Midge Ure continues to tour<br />

and play all around the world.<br />

Many will remember Ultravox<br />

from their exhilarating show at<br />

Sweetwaters in the 80s. Their hit<br />

album Vienna was in the NZ top<br />

40 for over 47 weeks. 10cc has<br />

sold out many concerts in New<br />

Zealand in the past, with such hits<br />

as Dreadlock Holiday, The Things<br />

We Do For Love, I’m Not In Love,<br />

Art For Art’s Sake, Rubber Bullets,<br />

I’m Mandy Fly Me and Donna.<br />

Getting the band Zed, which<br />

will reunite after 15 years,<br />

was a coup, he said. “They are<br />

a real rock and roll story of<br />

Christchurch school mates,” said<br />

Mr Parlane.<br />

The school mates formed a<br />

band and went on to have four<br />

top 10 hits.<br />

Zed’s hits include Renegade<br />

Fighter and Glorafilia. The group<br />

recorded two albums, toured the<br />

world, and then broke up. Zed<br />

is back together to celebrate the<br />

20-year anniversary of its debut<br />

album Silencer.<br />

Selwyn Sounds will again<br />

benefit the local community, said<br />

Mr Parlane.<br />

“We have great support<br />

from the Lincoln community.<br />

Lincoln High will once again be<br />

providing parking and all money<br />

raised will go back to the school.<br />

Our volunteer base comes from<br />

numerous community groups in<br />

the Selwyn region and its great<br />

to support them through Selwyn<br />

Sounds.”<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

Lyttelton takes a beating on Facebook<br />

Lyttelton has received<br />

a scathing yet satirical<br />

review on the Sh** Towns<br />

of New Zealand Facebook<br />

page. The post, calling the<br />

suburb a “grubby little<br />

sh**-tip” and a “Lyttel<br />

bit sh**, has received a<br />

mixed response from the<br />

community. Reporter<br />

Jess Gibson gets reaction<br />

from people in Lyttelton<br />

Malcolm Carne disapproved<br />

of what the post said about his<br />

home of 20 years.<br />

“Whoever wrote it is a nasty<br />

idiot and<br />

obviously<br />

deluded<br />

because it’s a<br />

great place to<br />

live. What can<br />

I say without<br />

using swear<br />

words . . .<br />

Malcolm<br />

Carne<br />

they’re a total<br />

twit,” Mr Carne<br />

said.<br />

“They obviously haven’t<br />

spent any time here or at least<br />

not more than 5min. It’s total<br />

bullsh** and I’ve never heard<br />

such cr** in my life.”<br />

Caro<br />

Allison had<br />

a different<br />

outlook on the<br />

post after living<br />

in Lyttelton for<br />

24 years.<br />

“I think it’s<br />

really clever<br />

Caro Allison<br />

and very, very<br />

funny. It’s<br />

fantastic and absolutely true,”<br />

she said.<br />

“Geographically and mentally,<br />

we are kind of stuck here in a<br />

way. Even though we’ve got the<br />

ocean, the port and the harbour<br />

out there, we are in our own<br />

gorgeous bubble and if we can’t<br />

laugh, it gets very sad.”<br />

Caine Tauwhine, who has<br />

lived in Rapaki for 15 years, said<br />

the statements “might have been<br />

the case in the 80s but not now.”<br />

JOKING: In spite of its bustling cafe scene, Lyttelton received<br />

an unflattering satirical write-up on a popular Facebook page.<br />

Caine<br />

Tauwhine<br />

He said the<br />

post was “too<br />

harsh.”<br />

“Lyttelton<br />

is full of all<br />

sorts – we get<br />

the freaks,<br />

the geeks and<br />

everything in<br />

between, but<br />

the thing about<br />

all those types is that they love<br />

the place,” Mr Tauwhine said.<br />

Guy Higginson, who grew<br />

up in Lyttelton, also said the post<br />

was harsh.<br />

“I would say it’s probably<br />

one of the best places to grow<br />

up in. People<br />

that don’t live<br />

there have got<br />

no idea,” Mr<br />

Higginson said.<br />

He did not<br />

agree with the<br />

town being<br />

labelled “a<br />

Guy<br />

Higginson<br />

Lyttel bit sh**”.<br />

“Lyttelton is<br />

Lyttelton, you<br />

can give it a<br />

name, but it’s a bit tongue-incheek<br />

really. I guess it’s a play on<br />

words.”<br />

Denise Alty commutes to<br />

Lyttelton through the tunnel<br />

every day for work. She was<br />

appalled by the post, calling<br />

it “utterly<br />

irrelevant and<br />

ridiculous.”<br />

“People come<br />

here to enjoy<br />

the ambience,<br />

the feel and<br />

the vibe. It’s<br />

an incredibly<br />

Denise Alty supportive<br />

and closeknit<br />

community. I work here<br />

and grew up over the hill, so<br />

Lyttelton is definitely a big part<br />

of my life,” she said.<br />

“I love Lyttelton, as do most<br />

other Cantabrians. It’s a place<br />

of character, artistry and peace.<br />

This is disgusting.”<br />

Lyttelton mother Emma<br />

Dunningham took no offence<br />

to the post, calling it funny, well<br />

written and<br />

witty.<br />

“I certainly<br />

don’t see<br />

anything to be<br />

offended about.<br />

I think it’s all<br />

pretty spot-on<br />

Emma<br />

Dunningham<br />

and the things<br />

that they are<br />

bringing up as<br />

a negative are<br />

things that some of us can see as<br />

a positive.”<br />

SH** TOWNS of New Zealand<br />

is a Facebook page which<br />

reviews places across the<br />

country.<br />

It aims to tell people “all the<br />

best places not to go on a New<br />

Zealand holiday.”<br />

Its profile of Lyttelton last<br />

week received more than 1000<br />

comments and 250 shares.<br />

The post read: “Lyttelton<br />

(dyslexic for ‘Little Town’) is<br />

a notorious haunt of sailors,<br />

dockers, Cantabrians and other<br />

unsavoury types. The grubby<br />

little s***-tip is a port town,<br />

which means it exists primarily<br />

for shipping out coal to overseas<br />

global warming factories and<br />

shipping in heroin.”<br />

The post had a crack at<br />

Lyttelton’s history and implied<br />

the port town is stuck in its old<br />

ways.<br />

“Lyttelton’s favourite feature<br />

is its timeball station, which<br />

he called it<br />

“laughable.”<br />

“It’s water off<br />

a duck’s back,”<br />

he said.<br />

“I mean, they<br />

are good at<br />

creative writing<br />

but that’s about<br />

Evan Kiddy it. It’s harsh,<br />

but it’s just one<br />

person’s view and that’s the sh**<br />

thing about Facebook – people<br />

can post whatever they like.”<br />

Jason Lockhorst thought<br />

there was some truth in the<br />

post but the comments are not<br />

limited to Lyttelton.<br />

“Everything they talked<br />

about has likely happened at<br />

We will deliver!<br />

was reconstructed after the 2011<br />

earthquake, despite timeballs<br />

becoming obsolete about a<br />

century ago. The timeball is well<br />

worth seeing for anyone who’s<br />

never heard of a clock,” it read.<br />

It also criticised the Lyttelton<br />

Rd tunnel, which was once the<br />

longest in New Zealand until<br />

Auckland’s Waterview Tunnel<br />

opened in 2017. ‘<br />

“The opening of the Lyttelton<br />

Tunnel allowed road traffic from<br />

Christchurch to reach the town<br />

in record time, which became<br />

known as ‘the speed of disappointment’,”<br />

read the post.<br />

The post listed an unusual<br />

range of activities to do in Lyttelton,<br />

including “joining a folk<br />

band . . . or getting in a knife<br />

fight with a Russian fisherman.”<br />

The page targeted Rolleston<br />

in November and gained a<br />

similar mixed response from<br />

residents.<br />

some point in<br />

time, but it’s<br />

also probably<br />

happened in<br />

every city in<br />

New Zealand<br />

as well.”<br />

“It was satire<br />

and was a<br />

hook, line and<br />

sinker for a<br />

lot of people.<br />

Whoever wrote it was looking<br />

for a laugh and they got laughs.<br />

But of course, it ruffled a few<br />

feathers,” Mr Lockhorst said.<br />

VITTORIA<br />

& Matt<br />

A real nasty mess<br />

HAPPY MATARIKI everyone.<br />

I hope you’re all using this<br />

wintery time of year as a perfectly<br />

appropriate Kiwi cultural excuse<br />

to eat heaps with the family.<br />

Obviously hangi or a generous<br />

roast are the best bets. Vittoria<br />

had her first full hangi meal on<br />

Saturday.<br />

Now that I’ve got you thinking<br />

of delicious food and eating, let’s<br />

take this lowbrow and talk about<br />

bodily functions. Just what you<br />

wanted right? I’ve always counted<br />

myself lucky to have avoided the<br />

real nastiness of parenting babies<br />

and toddlers so far. While my<br />

mates have had all sorts of dramas,<br />

I’ve missed (or dodged) the worst<br />

of it.<br />

I still count myself as lucky in<br />

that regard (thankfully), but I got<br />

my first taste of an ‘oh-hell-no’<br />

toiletry nightmare this week.<br />

After coming home from an<br />

activity last week a whiff of bad<br />

cabbage cologne told me it was<br />

change time. Luckily, it was all<br />

contained and wasn’t so bad in the<br />

big scheme of things.<br />

I congratulated myself on<br />

another job well done.<br />

She’d wet her pants a little<br />

through the nappy and the house<br />

was warm so I left her just in her<br />

top and nappy for a bit while I<br />

had some lunch in the kitchen<br />

(out of the wee seagull’s view).<br />

The true horror began soon<br />

after. Leaving the kitchen,<br />

RELAXED: Vittoria and I had<br />

an afternoon in the park to<br />

move on from the trauma of a<br />

nightmare code brown.<br />

I looked into the hall and<br />

immediately asked the question:<br />

“Is that a wee jobbie?”<br />

It was. Right there on the floor.<br />

But not just there.<br />

Suffice to say, if it gets on a<br />

shoe that’s about 30cm off<br />

the floor on a rack, you’ve got<br />

problems mate. Lord have mercy.<br />

Round two was too much for her<br />

nappy to handle.<br />

So I rolled up my sleeves (way<br />

up) and got stuck in, battling<br />

through a tantrum, an awful<br />

smell and kicking legs to clean up<br />

the offending nightmare and get<br />

Vittoria through a quick shower.<br />

After that we both deserved a<br />

fun afternoon in the park – as far<br />

away from thoughts of a digested<br />

meal as possible.<br />

Lions raise $260k for health hub<br />

AKAROA’S NEW health centre<br />

has received a $260,000 funding<br />

boost.<br />

The Akaroa and <strong>Bay</strong>s Lions<br />

Club presented a cheque to the<br />

Akaroa Health Trust last week.<br />

The club spent five years<br />

fundraising the amount within<br />

the community and received<br />

a $153,000 contribution from<br />

Lions International.<br />

The donation pushed the<br />

trust’s funding to more than<br />

$1.7 million. With the new<br />

targeted city council rate to<br />

collect $1.3 million, the initial $3<br />

million goal has been met. The<br />

centre will cost $5.9 million.<br />

Said former Akaroa and<br />

<strong>Bay</strong>s Lions Club president<br />

Tony Walls: “We need our<br />

communities. These people have<br />

repeatedly put their hands into<br />

their pockets over the last five<br />

years. They turned the vision of<br />

an integrated health hub into a<br />

reality.”<br />

Mr Walls said the work<br />

undertaken by Lions in Akaroa<br />

has been subtle but significant.<br />

The project raised $107,000<br />

from fundraisers like Paddy’s<br />

markets, street raffles, the Lions<br />

golf tournaments and donations<br />

from cruise ship passengers<br />

visiting Akaroa.”<br />

While raising the money,<br />

Lions members continued<br />

to support people, clubs and<br />

causes.<br />

At the presentation, Mr Walls<br />

paid tribute to Paul de Latour,<br />

who worked hard to support the<br />

fundraising appeal over many<br />

years.<br />

International and the Lions<br />

Clubs International Foundation.<br />

The two groups donated<br />

a combined $1.5 million to<br />

Christchurch following the<br />

quakes. Mr Lynch was the<br />

Lions Earthquake Committee<br />

chairman in Canterbury. The<br />

group distributed the funds<br />

which were used to re-establish<br />

a number of community<br />

activities.<br />

Akaroa Health Trust<br />

chairman Gordon Boxall said<br />

the community was “incredibly<br />

grateful to have a strong and<br />

spirited Lions club.”<br />

“This is a very significant<br />

contribution towards our new<br />

integrated health facility.”<br />

“When Lions are involved,<br />

problems get smaller, and<br />

communities get better.”<br />

As the $3 million goal has<br />

been met, further community<br />

fundraising will reduce the<br />

amount which would otherwise<br />

be raised through rates.<br />

Sumner must win final round-robin matches<br />

• By Gordon Findlater<br />

A 17-25 loss to Burnside means<br />

Sumner will need to win their<br />

final two round-robin matches<br />

to guarantee a spot in the plate<br />

semi-finals of the premier metro<br />

competition.<br />

In their final home game of<br />

the round-robin on Saturday,<br />

Sumner stumbled out of the<br />

blocks and found themselves<br />

down to 14 men just 3min<br />

into the match after lock<br />

Max Kennedy was binned for<br />

repeated infringements.<br />

Burnside were able to make<br />

the most of the man advantage<br />

and quickly jumped out to a 0-17<br />

lead.<br />

“As a group we just didn’t play<br />

well. Mentally, we weren’t exactly<br />

on song and we gave Burnside a<br />

bit of a running head start before<br />

we decided to get our heads in<br />

the game,” said Sumner coach<br />

Martin Dodgson.<br />

Sumner were able to get<br />

themselves well and truly back<br />

in the game through a penalty<br />

try from a collapsed scrum, a try<br />

to English halfback James Elliot<br />

and the boot of Willy Sakura<br />

providing two conversions and<br />

penalty.<br />

With 10min to play Sumner<br />

found themselves in with a<br />

SUMNER RUNNING club<br />

members Lisa Brignull and<br />

Shaun McWhirter both recorded<br />

impressive results at the Wellington<br />

Marathon on Sunday.<br />

Brignull competed in the full<br />

marathon, finishing second overall<br />

amongst the women’s field and<br />

first in her age bracket. Meanwhile,<br />

McWhirter took on the half marathon<br />

and finished 25th overall.<br />

A time of 3hr 5min 52sec was a<br />

new personal best on the Wellington<br />

course for Brignall. She finished<br />

just over three minutes behind the<br />

women’s marathon winner Sonya<br />

Cameron from Dunedin. Brignall<br />

also won the women’s 40-49 age<br />

group by more than 12min.<br />

McWhirter’s time of 1hr 19min<br />

58sec saw him finish 23rd in the<br />

men’s half marathon. He also<br />

finished seventh in the men’s 30-39<br />

age group.<br />

Impressive marathon results<br />

HAUL: Lisa Brignull claimed a silver and<br />

gold medal at the Wellington marathon<br />

on Sunday.<br />

Burnside won a scrum penalty<br />

before going down the other end<br />

and scoring a try to wrap-up the<br />

match.<br />

Dodgson said to play badly<br />

until that point was a bit of a<br />

shock.<br />

work themselves back into the<br />

game Dodgson says the major<br />

concern from the game was their<br />

lack of physical presence.<br />

“We shouldn’t be getting<br />

physically dominated by a<br />

Burnside pack. Not after we<br />

dominated the likes of Lincoln<br />

and High School Old Boys . . .<br />

because of that we couldn’t really<br />

stick to our game plan,” said<br />

Dodgson.<br />

He says Sumner have now<br />

made it difficult for themselves<br />

to finish in the top two of the<br />

bottom six – which will grant<br />

them a plate semi-final. However,<br />

the side still have fate in their<br />

own hands.<br />

While the result may not<br />

have gone their way the<br />

Sumner faithful were kept in<br />

good spirits with outrageously<br />

cheap $5 jugs of Tui beer at<br />

the clubrooms to celebrate the<br />

premier side’s last home game of<br />

the season.<br />

This Saturday Sumner take on<br />

Linwood at Linfield Park. The<br />

game kicks off at 2.45pm.<br />

MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD<br />

Thank you to everyone who contributed ideas and feedback as part of our first phase<br />

of consultation as we plan for our new school.<br />

As well as the online survey, feedback was gathered from Post-It Stations at various<br />

school events and from student House Groups and workshops.<br />

A Community Consultation Report is now with the design team to assist in developing<br />

the preliminary concept design for the new school.<br />

The key findings in the report shows our community would like a new school which:<br />

► Reflects Marian’s Roman Catholic Special Character, values, story and history<br />

► Is inclusive and supportive. For example, reflects and celebrates Māori, Asian and<br />

Pasifika cultures<br />

► Fosters Marian’s family environment and supports small class sizes<br />

► Has designated and comfortable spaces to pray, eat, prepare, teach, learn and be<br />

together<br />

► Is eco-friendly and sustainable<br />

► Has full-sized, modern facilities designed to be functional and welcoming<br />

► Has plenty of green, leafy space.<br />

The full report is available on the Marian College website.<br />

SERVICE IN THE COMMUNITY<br />

This term, Marian students have filled paper bags with more than 200<br />

non-perishable food items for Christchurch families in need.<br />

During the <strong>July</strong> school holidays, Marian students will be working in the<br />

Stanmore Road St Vincent de Paul shop. Please call in with your preloved<br />

gently used clothing and household items and say hi.<br />

Marian College has a long tradition of service. Both students and staff<br />

members are actively involved and contribute positively to the wider<br />

community. All students complete at least six hours of meaningful<br />

service within the school and community, every year.<br />

WE WELCOME YOUR QUESTIONS<br />

We have had many questions from families, prospective families and the wider<br />

community about the relocation and rebuild of Marian College.<br />

The Marian College website is your first port of call for all Marian news and<br />

information as well as progress updates on the new school.<br />

A regularly updated document is available on the school website to assist with<br />

inquiries. Visit www.mariancollege.school.nz/newschool and click on the ‘New<br />

School Questions & Answers’ button.<br />

If we haven’t answered what you need to know on the website – please email or<br />

phone the school office, and we will respond as soon as possible.<br />

Congratulations to Year 10 student Brie-Ellen Harding and the Canterbury Baby Hawks<br />

who came second to the Philippines in the Softball World Championship U16 Women’s<br />

division, held in the Czech Republic from 13 - 23 June.<br />

Next stop, Brie-Ellen (pictured back, fifth from the left) will be travelling to Queensland,<br />

with the New Zealand Developing Sox Girls U15 squad, to compete in this month’s<br />

Friendship Series. Good luck Brie-Ellen, we are very proud of you!<br />

UC’S YOUNGEST FEMALE PHD<br />

Natasha Mazey, a 23-year-old former<br />

Marian College student, may be the<br />

youngest female in the University of<br />

Canterbury’s almost 150-year history,<br />

to earn a doctorate. Natasha began her<br />

academic journey studying commerce and<br />

digital technologies at Marian College,<br />

which she enjoyed.<br />

UC describes her as an ‘unstoppable force<br />

of nature’ - congratulations Natasha on<br />

your remarkable achievement!<br />

REAL ESTATE<br />

A new house is just the beginning....<br />

52 McCormacks <strong>Bay</strong> Road, Mt Pleasant<br />

Auction: Thursday 18 <strong>July</strong> <strong>2019</strong> Unless Sold Prior<br />

3 bedrooms | 2 bathrooms | 1 living room | 2 car-garage | Listing Number: SM0205<br />

Built in 2015, this impressive, architecturally<br />

designed home has been immaculately finished<br />

and created to ensure minimal maintenance<br />

and easy living; allowing you to make the most<br />

of life, creating new adventures and memories!<br />

Solidly constructed by Benchmark Homes<br />

with quality in mind, you will be supremely<br />

cosy here even in the coldest months thanks<br />

to the double glazing, heat-pumps and extra<br />

heavy-duty insulation. Extra large windows<br />

provide dramatic and uninterrupted blue water<br />

views of the McCormacks <strong>Bay</strong> Estuary and<br />

beyond, allowing an abundance of natural light<br />

and warmth to flood in.<br />

Tastefully decorated throughout, with<br />

superior fixtures and fittings, there are many<br />

extra touches here that make this home so<br />

special and economical to maintain, including<br />

solar water heating and LED lighting. Whether<br />

you are a smaller family, a professional<br />

couple or perhaps looking to downsize from<br />

a larger family home, you will appreciate the<br />

accommodation on offer here. Two double<br />

bedrooms and a full bathroom on the lower<br />

level complement the Master Bedroom with<br />

luxury ensuite and open plan living on the<br />

upper level.<br />

The section is a perfect example of good things<br />

coming in small packages. The 291sqm site is<br />

attractively planted and offers a variety of spots<br />

for you to relax in; enjoy your morning coffee<br />

on the sheltered balcony or take afternoon tea<br />

with your friends and family on the sunny deck<br />

below. Private and fully fenced, this is a very<br />

practical property, with an electric gate opening<br />

to your double internal access garage.<br />

Our vendor has loved their time here, with<br />

so much on offer in the vicinity; the coastal<br />

pathway to Sumner provides easy access to<br />

beaches and the village vibe, the Mt Pleasant<br />

farmers market and community centre is the<br />

place to go for your organic veggies or morning<br />

yoga classes, and the Port Hills and Estuary are<br />

the perfect playground for those who love an<br />

active lifestyle! However our realistic owner is<br />

committed to moving on and has made their<br />

instructions clear - they would love to see this<br />

immaculate home sold on or before auction<br />

day. Don’t risk missing out, come and see for<br />

yourself or call for more details, this may be<br />

more affordable than you might think!<br />

Call for open home details or to arrange<br />

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 which had gone<br />

unreported.<br />

“I’ve always though that it<br />

has b en quite amazing that we<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 stand 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 />

Cave Rock<br />

Apartments’<br />

owners<br />

expect EQC<br />

sign-off<br />

this week<br />

• By Sarla Donovan<br />

THE OWNERS of Sumner’s Cave<br />

Rock Apartments ar expecting the<br />

Earthquake Commi sion to sign-off<br />

on a se tlement agr emen this w ek.<br />

Body corporate chairman Mike<br />

White said the group had gone<br />

into mediation with IAG and EQC<br />

on February 20, and signed off<br />

on a deal with IAG on February<br />

2 – coincidenta ly seven years<br />

to the day after the February 2,<br />

20 1, earthquake. However, they<br />

are waiting for EQC to sign the<br />

agr ement.<br />

“Given that EQC actua ly drafted<br />

the agr ement, there’ l be no<br />

problem with them doing that.”<br />

The apartment suffered damage<br />

in the February and June, 20 1,<br />

earthquakes and were demolished in<br />

late 2012. In 2016, IAG’s offer of the<br />

difference betw en indemnity value,<br />

$10 mi lion, and the sum insured,<br />

$16 mi lion, was rejected by the body<br />

corporate.<br />

The mediation agr ement<br />

prevented Mr White from disclosing<br />

the se tlement amount, but he said it<br />

involved the two parties paying “a bit<br />

more money than they’d wanted to<br />

earlier.”<br />

A WOOLSTON 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 Garth hopes to 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 hearing i scheduled to be<br />

The bylaw comes as an increasing<br />

In the past year, the district<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 />
