Security company’s bid to 

lower crime in Lyttelton 

• By Jess Gibson 

CLAIMS OF a lack of policing 

in Lyttelton has led to a private 

security company patrolling the 

streets. 

Residents have been complaining 

about an increase in crimes such 

as vehicle damage and theft during 

hours where there is no police 

presence. 

The Lyttelton police station is 

only staffed between 8am-5pm – 

after that, any calls are taken by 

police in Christchurch. 

In response, private security 

company Tactical Response Team 

has been patrolling the streets since 

August 20, on Tuesdays, Thursdays 

and Saturdays, 9pm until 3am. 

However, police statistics show 

that crime has not significantly 

increased in Lyttelton. 

A trend shows levels of reported 

crime in Lyttelton have remained 

relatively stable over the past two 

years. 

There has been no consistent 

increase this year, with crime 

numbers fluctuating from month 

to month. 

The highest number of crimes 

reported this year was 53 in 

February, the lowest number 

reported was 28 in April – the 

average number of crimes for the 

year so far is 41.

from the editor’s desk 

THE LEGACY of the 2011 earthquakes 

still continue to wreak havoc. 

Right now they continue to tear the 

heart out of Sumner business (see page 

4-5). 

It took a long time for the retail and 

cafe area to recover from the three big quakes in 2011. But 

now roadworks which are under way as part of upgrades to 

the village have put some back to square one. 

Chrissie Beardsley, who owns Chrissie’s Label Clothing on 

Nayland St, is feeling the full force of the downturn. 

She has managed to stay afloat with other funding, otherwise 

and she would have been forced to shut-up shop. 

The silver lining is once the roadworks and other 

improvements to the area are finished, Sumner will be 

looking pretty good.

Reserve status unlikely to be revoked 


THE DEPARTMENT of 

Conservation does not believe 

an argument could be made to 

revoke the reserve status of a 

former Maori burial ground. 

There have been ongoing discussions 

about returning ownership 

and management of Purau 

Maori Reserve to local runanga 

over the past century. 

A report 

was presented 

to the Banks 

Peninsula Community 

Board 

in May last year 

which gave two 

options to return 

Andrew 

Turner 

ownership to 

local hapu Ngati 

Wheke, one of 

which would reclassify 

the land from recreation 

reserve to historic reserve. 

The second and preferred 

option was to revoke the reserve 

status, which would enable the 

city council to then consider 

returning the land to Te Hapu o 

Ngati Wheke. 

The report was laid on the 

table while clarification was 

sought on the derivation of the 

reserve and claims of error in 

the report. 

This was because the Purau 

Residents Association argued 

any decision to revoke the 

tree trouble?

LAND: Reserve status is unlikely to be revoked at a Maori burial ground on Purau Ave, which 

must happen in order for local runanga to reclaim the land. 

reserve status would be an illconsidered 

act of privatisation. 

However, that report has now 

been “formally withdrawn by 

city council staff.” 

The community board was 

presented with information 

within the area report at its 

meeting on Monday. 

It said the report was withdrawn 

due to it being unlikely 

that the original recommendation 

from staff can proceed. 

DoC staff stated that given 

the current location, use and 

historical significance of the 

reserve, they did not believe an 

argument could be made that 

the land has no reserve value. 

Ngati Wheke representatives 

have indicated to the city council 

they are now seeking further 

advice from Ngai Tahu and the 

process is ongoing. 

Rapaki representative Yvette 

Couch-Lewis was unable to 

respond before the Bay Harbour 

News’ deadline.

Simply irresistible - they don’t

Peninsula councillor Andrew 

Turner requested clearer wording 

around DoC’s statement 

that they did “not believe” the 

reserve status could be revoked. 

He said wording needed to 

be clearer before the community 

board accepted the statement 

as there has been a lot of 

community interest in the 

issue. 

It is expected that a revised 

report will come to the 

community board within the 

next three years.

In Brief 

CORSAIR BAY RUBBISH 

City council staff will investigate 

problems with rubbish at 

Corsair Bay. There have been 

ongoing issues with bins not 

being emptied regularly enough, 

which has upset residents. There 

has also been concern over the 

proximity of the bins to the water 

and the visual impacts this has 

for visitors. Meanwhile, graphics 

and colours for new Bigbelly Bins 

being installed in Akaroa are set 

to be considered at a meeting 

today. 

2500 PLANTS FOR RESERVE 

THe Diamond Harbour reserve 

management committee estimates 

about 2500 plants have been dug 

in around the reserve so far this 

year. It compares to 1800 which 

were planted last year. There are 

still 400 plants available for use 

by the committee for 2019 and it 

is yet to be decided how these will 

be used.

Parents have until Saturday to 

register their children to attend

Road works in Sumner Village push 

Road works being 

undertaken as part of the 

Sumner Village Master 

Plan are causing havoc 

for businesses. Jess 

Gibson reports 

TEN YEARS ago, Chrissie 

Beardsley’s dream of owning a 

second-hand designer clothing 

store became a reality. 

With Sumner in mind as the 

perfect location, she opened 

Chrissie’s Label Clothing on 

Nayland St and quickly saw her 

business thrive. 

She faced turmoil in 2011 

when the earthquake struck 

and resulted in a downturn in 

business – but the friendships she 

had formed with customers gave 

her the motivation to hang on. 

Now the road works which 

are being done as part of the 

city council’s Sumner Village 

upgrades have pushed her to her 

limit. 

Ms Beardsley said she was 

lucky she managed to keep afloat 

with other funding, otherwise 

and she would have been forced 

to “shut up shop.” 

Dust and noise have permeated 

through Sumner’s main streets 

since work began in March to 

build new road surfaces, kerbs, 

DOWNTURN: Chrissie Beardsley has put up 30 per cent off signs at her store Chrissie’s Label 

Clothing in an attempt to make back the average loss of $1000 a week she has suffered f. 

footpaths, stormwater drains, 

landscaping, and add feature 

paving. 

Diggers, fencing and road 

cones can be seen on Marriner 

St, Wakefield Ave, Burgess St and 

Nayland St. 

Outside shops, some footpaths 

have been closed, parking has 

been reduced and Marriner St 

and Wakefield Ave are often 

reduced to one lane of traffic. 

Eventually, the enhancement 

works will improve the 

functionality, safety, connectivity 

and amenity of Sumner Village. 

It will provide new street 

furniture, landscaped areas, cycle 

lanes, a paved shared space and 

crossing points, wider footpaths 

and a slower speed environment. 

And with construction ball 

parked to be completed by the 

end of the month, Ms Beardsley 

has “no idea” what she will feel 

when it is all over. 

She described the entire 

process as “soul-destroying.” 

‘Thirty per cent off’ signs 

remain in her shop window at a 

time when they would usually 

be stored away in an attempt to 

make back the average loss of 

$1000 a week she has suffered. 

“I’ve been crying over it,” she 

said. 

“No one has come and talked 

to me and asked how the business 

is going. I could have shown 

them my financial books which 

had dropped from $2000 to $300 

a week – that’s a big change.” 

Ms Beardsley’s is not the only 

business to take a hit. 

Two shops, one of which has 

been in Sumner for 21 years, now 

lie vacant. 

“Customers have been 

struggling to get around with the 

one-ways and no parking. It’s just 

about wiped us off the planet,” 

Ms Beardsley said.

business owners to the limit 

CLOUD cafe and Korean Tapa 

Bar owner Marty Moon opened 

his business on Marriner St five 

months ago, about the same time 

work started on the upgrades. 

“We have been affected quite a 

lot,” he said. 

But in spite of the hit he has 

taken while trying to make a 

name for his 

business, Mr 

Moon said he 

has been happy 

with the way 

contractors have 

dealt with the 

process. 

Sara 

Templeton 

He said they 

have made an 

effort to keep him 

regularly updated 

as the project progresses through 

its different stages. 

Across the road, Joe’s Garage 

Sumner owner Callum Brownlee 

said he usually notices a steady 

increase in business year on 

year. However, there has been no 

growth this year so far. 

Heathcote Ward city councillor 

Sara Templeton acknowledged 

the road works have been a 

difficult feat for the shops which 

had to wear the downturn. 

But she said once they are 

completed, it will be a great 

payoff. 

TAKING THE HIT: CLOUD cafe and Korean Tapa Bar owner 

Marty Moon says he has been affected by the road works. 

“Making a much more 

pedestrian-friendly village is part 

of what the community wanted 

to enable the area to thrive. 

“It is going to be finished by 

summer and it’s going to be 

amazing.”

understand the upgrades have 

been a disruptive time for the 

community. 

“The council and contractor 

engaged with the local businesses 

prior to construction to minimise 

the impact of any disruption,” 

she said. 

Ms Ellis said it was agreed 

early in the project that the works 

would be undertaken during the 

winter when visitor numbers are 

generally lower. 

She said weekend work was 

limited to Saturday mornings 

to ensure businesses received a 

break from construction activity. 

“Our team are talking with the 

businesses on a weekly basis to 

discuss issues and where possible 

work in with them to alleviate 

concerns.”

Bees to benefit from book 


A FICTIONAL sun bear 

illustrated by Lyttelton artist 

Celia Allison is helping to save 

bees. 

Ms Allison, author Teresa 

Kiddell and editor Sorcha 

O’Malley are preparing to 

launch the new children’s book 

Gwendolyn Bear and the Honey 

Bees this month, which is bee 

awareness month. 

In a lighthearted, rhyming tale 

with an important message, the 

book signifies the plight of bees 

and the importance of looking 

after the species to ensure the 

survival of mankind. 

“I’ve been up to the gift fair in 

Auckland recently and there was 

an enormous response to it,” Ms 

Allison said. 

Port Hills MP Ruth Dyson 

will be a guest speaker at the first 

launch event, which will be held 

at The Lyttel Kiwi, 15 London St 

on September 13. 

“I’m really pleased I’ve got a 

wonderful guest speaker, it will 

be neat. People can come in, have 

a drink, listen to her speak and 

buy a book if they want to,” Ms 

Allison said. 

More than 5000 copies have 

been printed so far and will be 

sold in stores across the country 

and in Christchurch including 

Scorpio Books, Piccadilly Books 

and Take Note Ferrymead. 

GOOD CAUSE: Illustrator Celia Allison and author Teresa 

Kiddell will launch their book Gwendolyn and the Honey Bees 

in Lyttelton on September 13. PHOTO: GEOFF SLOAN 

Fifty cents from each $22.99 

book will go towards the Trees 

for Bees NZ programme, which 

aims to maximise the health and 

survival of bees. 

Gwendolyn Bear and the 

Honey Bees has been a concept of 

Ms Kiddell’s for 42 years and the 

new book will be the first she has 

ever published. 

Ms Kiddell has been an 

accountant for Ms Allison for 

almost 20 years and pitched the 

idea to her in January. 

Ms Allison described her 

illustrations as “a whimsical, 

watercolour pencil style with a 

lot of detail.” 

She is best known for her 

illustrations Cecily and Moa 

Revival, which have been printed 

onto merchandise such as 

stationery and tea towels. 

“I haven’t done a children’s 

book for years, it’s going back a 

couple of decades now,” she said. 

Ms Kiddell said she is very 

excited to have the book 

published after having it “in the 

back of her mind” for so long. 

“I can’t believe it’s out.”

Traffic controls to stay 

along Sumner Rd 


THE PARKING restrictions 

and traffic controls which 

allowed Sumner Rd to be 

safely re-opened will be made 

permanent. 

Temporary traffic 

management measures, like 

no stopping, no overtaking, no 

right turn, no entry restrictions 

and stop and give way signs, 

enabled the road to reopen on 

March 29. 

Now those controls will be 

made permanent after the 

Banks Peninsula Community 

Board approved the move at its 

meeting on Monday. 

The restrictions aim to make 

Sumner Rd safer, as it is the 

dangerous goods route for 

trucks travelling to Lyttelton 

and is popular with tourists, 

sightseers and residents. 

Section of planned controversial 

walkway given the green light 


A SMALL part of the 

contentious Head to Head 

Walkway route has been 

approved. 

The Banks Peninsula 

Community Board signed 

off the section from Marine 

Drive at Paradise Beach to the 

Charteris Bay Yacht Club. 

The city council received 

mixed feedback from the 

community on route options 

between Orton Bradley Park 

and the Charteris Bay Yacht 

Club. The five options the 

city council proposed for the 

section through Charteris Bay 

were opposed by the residents’ 

association. 

However, there was wider support 

for the small route which 

has been approved. 

During the board meeting on 

Monday, two affected residents 

spoke about their concerns 

over how the track would be 

developed. They are worried 

about privacy, environmental 

impacts, health and safety and 

anti-social behaviour. The city 

council is working to develop 

the rest of the track in stages.

UP TO 3000 native 

seedlings will be planted 

in Port Levy to help 

biodiversity flourish. 

The Banks Peninsula 

water zone committee 

is holding a community 

planting day at 

Koukourārata Marae 

on Saturday. One of the 

committee’s priorities is 

protecting and enhancing 

environmental values. 

The planting will help 

protect the quality of the 

stream on the marae’s 

boundary, which runs 

from the mountain to 

the sea, as well as provide 

shelter for native species. 

Peter Ramsden, 

of Koukourārata 

Marae, said the project 

was possible because 

of funding from the 

committee’s immediate 

steps programme. 

“The land is joint 

between Koukourārata 

and the wider community, 

so there is some farmers’ 

land in there too,” he said. 

“All trees going in will 

be native, they always are, 

but this is a big number 

of trees, all because of the 

IMS funding.” 

Banks Peninsula 

zone facilitator Shelley 

Washington said the 

planting will “complete 

the connection” between 

the Kakanui conservation 

covenant and the coast. 

“This stream or gully 

could be seen as the 

umbilical cord that 

connects Kakanui, which 

represents papatūānuku 

and Te Ara Whanui 

Makwhui (Koukourarata 

Bay) which represents 

Tangaroa,” she said. 

“It is part of a goal that 

FLOURISH: 

Native 

seedlings will 

be planted 

by the 

community at 

Port Levy on 

Saturday. 

Help plant out the peninsula 

the Banks Peninsula is 

recognised in the region 

for showcasing flourishing 

biodiversity. 

“The committee 

has many other goals, 

such as supporting the 

implementation of the 

Whakaraupō catchment 

management plan; 

increasing community 

understanding of mahinga 

kai; minimising sediment 

discharge into waterways, 

and supporting freshwater 

education programmes 

and community-led 

projects.” 

•Anyone attending 

the planting day should 

take a pair of gardening 

gloves, a spade, water 

bottle and warm 

clothing. Meet at the 

Port Levy jetty, Puari Rd, 

at 9am to walk to the 

marae.

CLEAN-UP: More than 70 per cent of the derelict buildings at the former Skellerup factory site 

on Garlands Rd in Woolston are being knocked down.

Old Skellerup factory 

demolition under way 


A LARGE portion of the 

remaining abandoned Skellerup 

factory is being demolished at its 

former Woolston site. 

The BL Family Trust own 

the 59,801 sq m section of land 

on Garlands Rd and is in the 

process of clearing more than 

70 per cent of the earthquakedamaged, 

asbestos-filled 

buildings. 

Skellerup, which makes 

rubber goods, moved out in 2016 

to a new $60 million premises 

in Wigram. It sold the Woolston 

site ‘as is where is’. 

BL Family Trust representative 

Vipan Garg said the demolition 

is taking place in order to 

clean up the “eyesore” which is 

derelict and attracting vandals. 

“It was a problem within the 

community. People were getting 

into the buildings, as they were 

left unattended.” 

National Steel, the main site 

occupant, processes and sorts 

metal on the empty 

land and will continue 

to use one building as a 

“hub” which has been 

deemed safe by an 

engineer. 

Fair Auto 

Dismantlers, Lowe 

Industries and NZ 

Besthome Furniture 

also occupy the shedlike 

buildings on the 

site, which have been 

assessed as safe. 

The BL Family Trust 

has applied for a proposed 

boundary adjustment to three 

main lots on the site and wants 

it to be processed by the city 

council. 

However, demolition project 

manager Jarrad Smith said there 

are no plans to sell or develop 

the area at this stage. 

He said the purpose 

of the boundary 

adjustment is to 

square off the land 

into three clear 

parcels. 

“Potentially, 

at some point, 

something will 

happen with the site. 

What that is and 

when that is hasn’t 

been determined. 

Vipan Garg There is still a year 

or so of work to be 

done,”Mr Smith said. 

The demolition may take up 

to a year and the remaining 

materials will be dumped at the 

Kate Valley landfill. 

Crime may be 

going unreported 

•From page 1 

Lyttelton Police Sergeant 

Franco Lovrich said incidents 

may be going unreported. 

“If it’s not life-threatening, 

call 105 and report 

incidents so we can 

monitor what is going 

on and target it as appropriate,” 

he said. 

Residents have been 

taking to Facebook 

pages such as Lyttelton 

– Ain’t No Place I’d 

Rather Be – to post 

about crimes which 

are mainly happening 

outside of police presence 

hours. 

However, fewer 

people have been 

posting about crime 

since the patrols started. 

A community meeting 

has been set up 

to address residents’ 

concerns. It will be held 

on Sunday, 5pm, in the 

Lyttelton Arts Factory, 

1 Sumner Rd. 

The meeting will be 

attended by Sergeant 

Lovrich, residents and 

community board members. 

Tactical Response Team operations 

director Shannon Mudge is 

a Lyttelton resident and wanted 

to put the concerns of fellow 

residents at ease with help from 

his colleague Shane Fuller. 

Said Mr Mudge: “We’re not the 

police, we’re just there to deter 

any crime. If we can stop it before 

it happens that’s a win for us.” 

“If we can manage the situation 

we will deal with it, but if it’s 

out of our control we will log it 

and report it to the police,” Mr 

Mudge said. 

“If there is one person breaking 

in and we see it, by all means, we 

will try and stop it.” 

Mr Mudge said the patrols have 

been quiet and they have not had 

to deal with anything problematic 

so far. 

Superintendent Lane Todd 

said police would be 

interested in having 

“further conversations 

with them in 

relation to how they 

are going to operate.” 

He said he would 

rather them be affiliated 

with one of the 

community patrols 

as they have a good 

working relationship 

with police. 

Community 

patrollers are volunteers 

working 

closely with police 

as extra “eyes and 

ears” to help build 

safer communities. 

Tactical Response 

Team is licensed and 

all of its security 

guards are vetted, 

selected, trained and 

equipped to attend 

incidents. 

They patrol in a vehicle and on 

foot in areas which are targeted 

by offenders, dressed in black 

uniforms showing the TRT logo. 

Mr Mudge and Mr Fuller 

are also offering “welfare 

checks.” 

“If someone is away for the 

weekend and they want us to 

look around their property to 

make sure the doors and windows 

are okay or if someone is 

sick and they need a checking up 

on, we will do that as well,” Mr 

Mudge said. 

Said Lyttelton Community 

Association Ken Maynard: “It 

would be better if the police were 

doing this, but if they can’t or 

won’t this is probably better than 

not having anything at all.”

Banks Peninsula Water Zone Committee 

We need your help 

– Banks Peninsula planting day 

The Banks Peninsula Water Zone Committee 

invites you to take part in the Koukourārata 

planting day on Saturday September 7 in Port Levy. 

One of the committee’s priority actions is 

protecting and enhancing environmental values 

from the mountains to the sea (ki uta ki tai). 

The planting will help protect the quality of 

the stream on the marae’s boundary, which 

runs from the mountain to the sea, as well as 

providing shelter for native species. 

The plan is to plant 3000 native seedlings in 

Port Levy from 9am at the water front by the jetty. 

All you need to bring is a pair of gardening gloves 

and a spade if you prefer your own, and yourself. 

Click ‘going’ on Environment Canterbury’s 

Facebook event to register your interest. 

The planting details: 

What: Planting 3000 

native seedlings; 

When: Saturday September 7, 

from 9am; 

Where: Meet at the Port Levy jetty, 

Puari Rd, and the group will 

walk to Koukourārata marae. 

The Banks Peninsula Water Zone Committee is a 

community led committee supported by councils.

From experience, I totally 

support the installation of crime

should also be incorporated into

In establishing a youth skate

2010, we obtained a bus and

Who knows if this early

crime? At the request of police, 

the cameras at Rolleston Reserve 

were connected to a monitor 

at the police station and the

I am certain that the cameras

NEW FRIENDS: Vittoria and grace share a moment. 

Bonding with cousins 

I’M PLEASED to say that I 

believe the seeds have been sown 

for a grand ambition of mine. 

A solid friendship between 

Vittoria and her similarly aged, 

Italian-based cousin Grace seems 

to be growing. 

I dearly hope the two will have 

a lifelong intercontinental mateship 

with constant communication, 

visits and bilingual teenage 

gossip. Although I dare say it 

started off a little rocky. 

We’re still in Italy and took a 

quick trip to stay at my sister-inlaw 

Christine’s place in Roveredo, 

a town about 30min drive north 

of Pravisdomini. It’s roughly 

Rangiora-size and is pretty close 

to the alps and a large United 

States Air Force base. 

Christine’s place is 2min up 

the road (literally the same road) 

from her son William, his partner 

Sara and their daughter Grace’s 

place. Although the two cousins 

had briefly met a week after we 

arrived, they were both tired and 

we went out to eat soon after. 

On our way to Christine’s, we 

stopped in for a long and leisurely 

lunch at William and Sara’s, giving 

the two the perfect opportunity 

to start bonding. But being 

a toddler is tough they say, and 

sharing is a hard lesson to learn. 

So of course Vittoria rushed to 

claim all of her cousin’s toys as 

soon as we arrived. 

As I’m a bloke, and because 

there was a barbecue on, I made 

a beeline for the beer and banter 

outside, cleverly escaping the ensuing 

screaming match between 

the cousins. From what I did see 

they seemed like they’d never 

learn to peacefully coexist. 

But, lo and behold, after Grace 

had a nap and Vittoria had a 

(huge) feed they were suddenly 

like two different, non-screaming 

people. There was even a few 

cute wee cuddles. Although we 

weren’t together all day, every day 

while we were there, you could 

tell they were growing fonder of 

each other each time they met 

up; touching hands, sharing toys 

(mostly) and babbling away to 

each other. Vittoria even learned 

to say her cousin’s name. 

What really proved it for me 

was when we were saying our 

goodbyes. Vittoria was waving 

away in my arms to Grace as she 

sat in the back of her mum’s car. 

As the car started to move and 

Vittoria realised her new friend 

was leaving, she burst into tears 

(the real ones with the big bottom 

lip) and reached out for the car. 

I love seeing a plan come 

together, especially mine.

mitre 10 mega ferrymead 

lend a helping hand 

On thursday 8th August, the Mitre 10 MEGA Ferrymead team 

lent a helping hand to the Diamond Harbour croquet club. 

The Croquet Club had reached out to Mitre 10 MEGA 

Ferrymead asking for assistance in re-levelling their 

greens, as overtime, and due to an earthquake, some 

patches had sunk and warped. Given that the youngest 

club member was 70, there was a need for some 

spring-chickens to come in for the heavy lifting. 

After the original date was postponed due to heavy 

rain, the Mitre 10 MEGA Ferrymead team finally made 

tracks for the beautiful Diamond Harbour setting on 

Banks Peninsula. The day began with a quick croquet 

lesson, then unloading the 2-tonne tipper truck, thanks 

to Kennards Hire, full of soil. Once 

the truck was emptied it was 

obvious that the job required 

more soil, so a couple of the crew 

headed back to base to pick 

up another load, while the rest 

began spreading the soil. 

The club’s members kindly 

served up a delicious homemade 

morning tea, lunch and 

afternoon snack. 

After a full day of shovelling, raking, rolling and 

smoothing it was clear that the job was a little bigger 

than anticipated. So, the team finished up in the 

evening and decided to come back for a couple of 

hours the following week to add the finishing touch – 

sewing the grass seed. 

The Diamond Harbour Croquet Club were so grateful 

for the work that went into the project. They are lovely 

people that put on a delicious feast in return for the 

work. I’m sure the team will be back (once the grass has 

grown) to try their hand at a game of croquet!

the Croquet Club

to mitre 10 megA

The Mitre 10 Mega Ferrymead team were happy to help and look forward 

to their next project! 

More than 2-tonnes of soil was needed to re-level the greens at the Diamond Harbour Croquet Club. 

A messAge from the DiAmonD hArbour Croquet Club 

We were thrilled to learn that Mitre 10 Mega offered a 

community service that could help smooth the surface 

and improve the grass quality. The price was providing 

lunch, morning and afternoon teas for a group of six 

very pleasant and hardworking staff. 

We are thrilled that our biggest challenge for next 

season is to relearn how to hit the ball straight on a 

smooth green, not one covered in curves and bumps.

Tasty Bites 

Creating healthy food to reduce stress 

Stress is normal and often 

healthy. In everyday life, 

stress plays a role in alerting 

us to life’s occasional 

dangers and challenges, so 

we can prepare ourselves for 

them and find solutions to 

impending problems. Poke 

bowls (pronounced pohkay) 

are based on the bitesized 

marinated fish salad 

famous in Hawaii and have 

some great stress-relieving 

qualities 

Poke bowl 

Ingredients 

450g uncooked wild salmon, 

skinned and cut into 2cm cubes 

(or hot-roasted, if preferred) 

½-1 medium ripe avocado, diced 

¾ cup mango pieces, defrosted 

½ cup thinly sliced capsicum 

2 cups packed spicy greens, such 

as watercress or mizuna, roughly 

chopped 

½ cup blanched broccoli florets 

½ cup chopped fresh coriander 

½ cup edamame beans, boiled 

3 Tbsp tamari/soy sauce 

2 Tsp sesame oil 

1 Tbsp black sesame seeds 

½ lemon, cut 

Brown rice salad 

2 cups cooked short-grain brown 

rice, warmed 

2 Tbsp rice vinegar 

½ tsp turmeric 

2 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil 

1 Tbsp Dijon mustard 

Directions 

Gently combine salmon, tamari 

and sesame oil in a medium 

bowl to let the flavours infuse. 

Make brown rice salad by 

combining rice and greens in a 

large bowl. 

Whisk vinegar, oil and mustard 

in a small bowl. Add to the 

rice salad and mix well. Place on 

the base of a bowl. 

Top with all the other individual 

ingredients, placing each 

thing separately around the bowl 

like numbers on a clock. Top 

with sesame seeds and sliced 

lemon, then take an Instagramworthy 

photo of it, feel grateful 

for your nourishing food, and 

then enjoy every mouthful. 

Cabbage crisps 

Ingredients 

12 good-quality 

cabbage leaves, 

remove tough, centre 

stalk 

2 Tbsp good-quality 

oil 

1 tsp sea salt flakes 

½ tsp cumin or caraway 

seeds 

Directions 

Preheat oven to 120 

deg C. Place cooling 

rack over rimmed 

baking trays. 

Peel the outer leaves 

from the cabbage, cut 

out the tough centre 

stalk, and tear the 

larger leaves in half. 

Place in a large bowl 

and drizzle over the 

oil, season with salt 

and spices, toss gently 

together and arrange in a single 

layer on the trays. 

Bake until the leaves go golden 

and become crisp (25-40min). 

Allow to cool completely 

before eating. Cabbage crisps 

will store in an airtight container 

for up to three days.

Mazda convertible still has wow factor 

Motoring 

Ross Kiddie 

I HAD TO look a long way back 

in my diary to work out when 

I last drove a manual gearbox 

evaluation car. It was October last 

year and it wasn’t actually a car, it 

was a ute. 

However, I was surprised and 

delighted to pick up the latest 

specification Mazda’s MX-5 twoseat 

convertible, it was a six-speed 

manual and is the subject of this 

evaluation. It was also my favourite 

of the series, the RF Limited 

with its retractable hard-top. 

The MX-5 needs no introduction, 

it has led the way in affordable 

performance models and 

brings a smile to the face of all 

who drive it. 

There are three models in the 

MX-5 range, the entry-level roadster 

soft-top which gets a 1.5-litre 

engine and starts at $41,895, and 

there are two 2-litre models, one 

is a soft-top at $49,195, the other 

is the RF Limited, and at $53,745 

it would most certainly be my 

choice if I was in the convertible 

market. 

It’s fair to say, I’m not a huge 

convertible fan, Christchurch’s 

weather isn’t perfect for open top 

driving, but the folding hard-top 

is a work of art, the car looks 

stunning, the convertible process 

is quick, the mechanism is brilliant, 

and when you are driving 

with the roof closed over you’d 

think for all money that it was 

permanently sealed. 

I’m not exaggerating when I 

refer to the MX-5 as being genius. 

It is adorably desirable, and is 

probably the most amount of fun 

you can get for the money. What 

makes it so special is the engineering 

layout, it is rear-wheeldrive, 

and with its low ride height 

and near perfect 50:50 weight 

split there is a fully involving 

driving feel. 

The MX-5 is a result of continual 

development, and in 

2-litre form it has just had a safety 

specification upgrade, it also 

gets more power – up to 135kW 

from 118kW and more torque at 

205Nm, up from 200Nm. Perhaps 

what makes the engine even 

more exciting is that it is now 

calibrated to rev more freely, the 

point of maximum revolutions 

has been raised to 7000rpm from 

6000rpm, and it will explore the 

entire rev band willingly. 

As a consequence, the engine is 

constantly eager – in all gears – it 

is throttle sensitive and an absolute 

joy to be behind the wheel of. 

In terms of performance, 

the 2-litre MX-5 will launch 

to 100km/h from a standstill

MAZDA MX-5 RF: Hard-top convertible. 

in around 6sec, and will move 

through an overtaking opportunity 

in 4.5sec (80-120km/h). 

While these figures aren’t electrifying, 

they are the foundation 

of an exciting package, the way 

the mechanicals combine to provide 

the feel-good factor makes 

you think that speed is greater 

and, of course, sitting so low to 

the ground the feeling of speed is 

constant. 

It must be considered as well 

that in the manual gearbox model 

the feel through the shift mechanism 

is exciting in itself, the lever 

has short throws both up and 

down and through the gate, it 

feels delightful and is one of the 

reasons I like manual gearboxes so 

much, the feeling of involvement 

is constant. If the thought of using 

a clutch is scary, the pedal on the 

MX-5 is delicate with perfect feel, 

the thought of stall need not be 

considered. 

Even though the MX-5 would 

be at home on the Port Hills

Elevator Pitch 

by Linwood Barclay 

It all begins on a Monday, when four people board an elevator in a Manhattan office 

tower. Each presses a button for their floor, but the elevator proceeds, non-stop, to the 

top. Once there, it stops for a few seconds, and then plummets. Right to the bottom 

of the shaft. It appears to be a horrific, random tragedy. But then, on Tuesday, it 

happens again, in a different Manhattan skyscraper. And when Wednesday brings yet 

another high-rise catastrophe, one of the most vertical cities in the world – and the 

nation’s capital of media, finance, and entertainment – is plunged into chaos. Clearly, 

this is anything but random. This is a cold, calculated bid to terrorize the city. And it’s 

working. Fearing for their lives, thousands of men and women working 

in offices across the city refuse leave their homes. Commerce 

has slowed to a trickle. Emergency calls to the top floors of 

apartment buildings go unanswered. Who is behind this? What 

do these deadly acts of sabotage have to do with the fingerless 

body found on the High Line? Two seasoned New York detectives 

and a straight-shooting journalist must race against time to find 

the answers . . . Pulsating with tension, Elevator Pitch is a riveting 

tale of psychological suspense that is all too plausible . . . and will 

chill readers to the bone. 

A Single Thread 

by Tracy Chevalier 

If she was to make a mark on the world, she would have to do so in another 

way… It is 1932, and the losses of the First World War are still keenly felt. 

Violet Speedwell, mourning for both her fiancé and her brother and regarded 

by society as a ‘surplus woman’ unlikely to marry, resolves to escape her 

suffocating mother and strike out alone. 

A new life awaits her in Winchester. Yes, it is one of draughty boarding-houses 

and sidelong glances at her naked ring finger from younger colleagues; but it is 

also a life gleaming with independence and opportunity. Violet falls in with the 

broderers, a disparate group of women charged with embroidering kneelers for 

the Cathedral, and is soon entwined in their lives and their secrets. As the almost 

unthinkable threat of a second Great War appears on the horizon Violet collects a 

few secrets of her own that could just change everything… 

Warm, vivid and beautifully orchestrated, A Single Thread reveals one of our 

finest modern writers at the peak of her powers.

roads, I’m loathe to use those 

routes these days, there is a lot of 

foot traffic and too many cyclists, 

also speed restrictions are frustrating. 

That being the case, I took 

the test car on my usual highway 

loop just east of the Malvern 

Hills, taking in the twisty section 

out of the Waimakariri River 

gorge. 

The wee MX-5 has extraordinary 

handling, it steers with 

absolute precision and is entertaining 

through the rear when 

power is applied forcibly. It has 

been designed so that oversteer 

is easily accessible, however, the 

electronic traction control system 

intervenes, although it is not 

overly invasive, the fun factor 

is still available. Of course, TCS 

can be switched off, but even 

with it activated the MX-5 is 

still the handling champion, it is 

entertaining and that is what has 

always aroused buyers. 

It wouldn’t be fair if I closed 

this evaluation without mentioning 

fuel use. While the MX-5 is 

largely seen as a model which 

entices throttle use, it still has 

respectable fuel use statistics, with 

a combined cycle claim by Mazda 

of 6.9-litres per 100km (41mpg). 

My time in the test car returned 

figures of a respectable 8l/100km 

(35mpg), which was good considering 

I constantly applied heavy 

throttle pressure. At 100km/h the 

engine is turning over at a steady 

2500rpm, providing an instantaneous 

figure of 5.1l/100km 

(55mpg). 

As much as I delighted in the 

RF Limited and all it represents, 

I’m still fingers crossed that we 

haven’t seen the end of the rotary 

era. An RX-8 is very much on 

my wish list, and if another 

generation RX model should 

roll off the production lines then 

it’s fair to say I’m very much 

interested. 

However, in the interim it is 

great cars like the MX-5 that 

will keep petrol heads like me 

entertained with their wow 

factor.

REAL ESTATE 

Private, peaceful 

Purau rural retreat 

52 Purau Port Levy Road, Purau Valley, Lyttelton Harbour 

Price: $850,000 plus GST if any 

2 bedrooms | 1 bathroom | 2 living rooms | 13ha | Listing Number: 9736 

Seldom do properties such as this come 

to the market but retiring vendors of 30 

years have decided the time has come. 

This is a wonderful location, peaceful 

and private with wonderful bird song. Set 

on 13.1369 hectares or 32.5 acres approx. 

this charming 100m 2 home is both easycare 

and warm. Commanding beautiful 

views of the Purau Valley, Purau Bay and 

Mt Evans, if you are looking for peace and 

privacy then this one could be for you. 

Set well off the road the house has 

two double bedrooms, two living areas, 

lovely decking and one bathroom. North 

East facing and sheltered with a garage/ 

workshop adjacent to the house. The 

garden is easy care and the land is a 

mixture of pasture in five paddocks for 

grazing, some bush and about 250 approx. 

30 year old pine trees ready for harvesting. 

The property is well fenced and has an 

excellent water supply, a small stream and 

a natural pond. Further down the driveway 

there is a set of yards, a four bay implement 

shed, a tractor shed with high stud and a 

large high stud workshop with three phase 

power. There is also a semi derelict house 

from about the 1930s on the property. 

This is an idyllic location and perfect for 

a retiring farmer, someone wanting to get 

into the firewood business or someone with 

a portable mill to make use of all the trees. 

Purau Bay is approximately 30 minutes’ 

drive from Christchurch, making it a 

highly desirable destination as it is so 

useable being close to Christchurch. 

Properties in this lovely valley and by such 

a safe swimming beach are defying all the 

odds and selling fast generally as they come 

up very seldom. 

Excellent swimming, boating, walking 

and stunning sunsets on the hills, quick 

and easy access to Lyttelton via the 

Diamond Harbour ferry (approx. five 

mins), local shops, cafés and bar make this 

a fun filled place to visit. Properties here 

make an excellent investment and Purau 

Bay and valley is a truly magical place to 

live.
