SUMNER HAS been hit by 

a strange crime wave – and 

the culprit is not pussyfooting 

around. 

Jasper the cat lives on Wiggins 

St and has been stealing 

items from houses as far as two 

blocks over from his home. 

The one-year-old male 

Burmese has pinched a large 

plastic bag worth items like 

socks, underwear, gloves, baby 

clothes and swimming trunks, 

among other items since before 

Christmas. 

Owner Mette Kristiansen 

said Jasper’s rampage started 

out at home where he would 

take socks off of the washing 

line and chew them up.

Taylors 

Mistake a

TAYLORS MISTAKE Beach is 

being treated as a tip. 

Taylors Mistake Surf Life Saving 

Club members are frustrated 

at the amount of litter scattered 

around overflowing bins by visitors. 

There are eight bins at the beach 

but the more visible ones near the 

toilet block and pathways to the 

carpark are often where problems 

occur. 

Surf club 

captain Tisha 

Bradley said patrol 

members are 

“always picking 

up” rubbish off 

the beach. 

“We’ve got our 

own rubbish bin 

and we often 

Tisha Bradley 

pick up rubbish and put it into 

our own bin.” 

However, she said while it is 

frustrating when people leave 

their rubbish directly beside the 

bins, she would prefer people to 

put it there rather than leave it 

down on the beach to prevent 

people from standing on sharp 

litter, like glass.

LEAVING PROBLEMS for someone 

else is one of the lesser likeable human 

characteristics. 

That will no doubt be what future generations 

think of us now, and those who 

have lived through the world-changing 

industrial growth of the 1900s. 

But right now, there is a problem at Taylors Mistake (see 

page 1). 

The hot weather has seen huge numbers at the beach and 

there’s simply not enough rubbish bins for what people want to 

leave behind. 

Sumner resident Alice Rae goes to Taylors a lot and has 

some common sense advice: “In reality, they need to take selfresponsibility 

and just have some basic common sense to not 

leave their junk lying around for someone else to clean up or 

get blown into the ocean.” 

Fair call.

News 

• By Sophie Cornish 

PEOPLE ARE being warned not 

to go to areas like Godley Head 

in hot and dry weather, as they 

may not be able to escape if a 

major fire breaks out. 

The warning was issued by 

fire chiefs and police prior to the 

past week’s high temperatures, 

which reached into the early to 

mid-30s. 

But Sumner Volunteer 

Fire Brigade 

chief officer Daryl 

Sayer said he would 

“absolutely” advise 

people to continue to 

Wayne 

Hamilton 

be cautious. 

“There’s still concern 

there and we’ve 

still got a bit of summer 

to go so the weather is only 

going to dry up the hills more.” 

Fire and Emergency New Zealand 

encouraged people to avoid 

isolated areas that have only one 

or two entry and exit points, one 

example being Godley Head. 

Said FENZ specialist fire 

investigator Wayne Hamilton: 

“Stay away from those areas. 

We would suggest rather than 

walking up the hills, go along 

the beach. People need to be 

conscious that they are entering 

high fire danger areas,” he said. 

All walks in areas with vegetation 

should be limited to the cool 

of the morning, Mr Hamilton 

said. 

FENZ asked for people to 

save outdoor activities in rural 

vegetation areas, such as motorcycling, 

trail-biking and dirtbiking 

for a cooler day when the 


Don’t get trapped in isolated 

areas temperatures soar 

DANGER: Fire chiefs have warned people to be wary of areas like Godley 

Head, as the city’s fire risk reached extreme. PHOTO: GEOFF SLOAN 

fire risk is lower. 

Additionally, FENZ asked 

motorists to not park their cars 

on dry vegetation. 

“It’s a real issue; vehicles cause 

a lot of fires. It is very important 

they park on gravelled areas, 

don’t drive off the road on to areas 

of vegetation,” Mr Hamilton 

said. 

A total fire ban continues in 

the entire Canterbury region, 

meaning lighting any 

fires is strictly prohibited. 

Mr Hamilton said 

small amounts of 

drizzle do not make a 

difference to fire risk 

conditions. 

“Unless we get significant 

rain, people 

should not be complacent, 

it doesn’t make a 

difference.” 

Earlier this month, 

it was revealed a 

multi-agency approach, 

Operation 

Lucifer, conducted 

by FENZ, police and 

neighbourhood watch 

groups was under way 

to prevent fires. 

Senior Sergeant Roy 

Appley said the operation is 

continuing and is monitoring 

suspicious behaviour. 

He is encouraging members 

of the public to take photos, particularly 

of vehicles and people, 

who may be acting suspiciously. 

• Phone 111 immediately 

if you see or smell smoke, 

or see any suspicious 

behaviour.

ADVICE ON SEATING 

City council staff have been 

asked for advice on the repair 

and replacement of seating on 

the Esplanade. The Linwood- 

Central-Heathcote Community 

Board requested information 

due to concerns by member 

Darrell Latham that a lot of the 

seating was “past its used by 

date.” 

SURF PATROLS KEPT BUSY 

It was a busy weekend for surf lifesaving 

clubs in the Bay Harbour 

area on Sunday as temperatures 

soared to 35 deg C. Sumner Surf 

Life Saving Club patrol finished 

up at 7pm after 12 rescues, five 

assists, two water searches and 

250 preventative actions. Taylors

patrol completed one rescue, 

12 assists, one major first aid 

and two minor first aids and 50 

preventative actions. 

AKAROA DIESEL SPILL 

An investigation is under way 

to find out how diesel got into 

the water near Akaroa wharf. 

Environment Canterbury said it 

is aware of diesel rising up from 

the shoreline on the south side 

of the wharf in Akaroa Harbour. 

Oil spill responders were at the 

site on Monday investigating the 

source of the diesel and assessing 

the situation.

But suddenly, clothing she did not 

recognise started appearing in the back 

hallway. 

“To be honest it was quite funny, it 

was amusing.” 

Now, she is attempting to right 

Jasper’s wrongs by returning the stolen 

goods to their owners. 

“As time has gone on I’ve realised that 

I would really like to find the people 

who own these things. These things 

are not cheap to buy and I’m sure these 

people want them back.” 

After Ms Kristiansen posted about 

Jasper’s antics on the Sumner Community 

Facebook page, one person has 

claimed a pair of gardening gloves, and 

another person socks and underwear. 

She also has a plastic bin just inside 

her gate with all Jaspers loot in it for 

neighbours to go and claim. 

Jasper is not the only sticky-pawed cat 

in Sumner. 

• From page 1 

Sumner resident Alice 

Rae, who uses the beach 

often, said people need to 

take more care in helping 

keep the area clean, rather 

than “passing the blame off 

to the council.” 

“In reality, they need 

to take self-responsibility 

and just have some basic 

common sense to not leave 

their junk lying around for 

someone else to clean up or 

get blown into the ocean,” 

she said. 

“There are far too many 

people pointing fingers for 

not solving environmental 

issues, rather than actually 

caring about what they 

can do personally, and not 

being so lazy and irresponsible.” 

City council head of 

parks Andrew Rutledge 

said bins are emptied twice 

daily. 

He said a solar-powered 

Bigbelly rubbish bin has 

been ordered and will be 

installed this month. 

A built-in compactor 

means the bins can swallow 

up to five times more than 

a standard waste bin. 

CAUGHT IN THE ACT: Jasper was 

sighted stealing a sock by one of his 

neighbours. 

In March, Bay Harbour News reported 

that resident Sara Buerki’s cat Roddy 

had stolen “baskets” worth of goods 

from neighbours. 

If you think you may have had items 

stolen by Jasper, email Ms Kristiansen 

on kristiansenm@hotmail.com with the 

subject line “JASPERS LOOT”.

SPILLING OVER: 

Food packaging, a

items left scattered 

around an overflowing

Food for community board in spotlight 

• By Louis Day 

THE BANKS Peninsula 

Community Board has increased 

its catering costs in spite of public 

scrutiny last term. 

Travel and time commitments 

are two of the reasons given as 

to why it is the only community 

board out of seven which will not 

cut back on its food budget. 

It now takes the title of the 

highest spending board with 

an estimated $228 put aside for 

catering per meeting, an increase 

from the $216 allocated towards 

catering in the previous term. 

City council head of community 

support, governance and 

partnerships John Filsell said a 

new supplier was being trialled 

and options were being explored 

to reduce costs. 

“Meetings are at Lyttelton, 

Little River and Akaroa; this 

requires elected members and 

others to travel some distance to 

and from the meeting, extending 

the overall time commitment. At 

some venues and at some times, 

such as Little River, there may 

not be the opportunity for elected 

members and others to purchase 

refreshments close by,” he said. 

Banks Peninsula board 

members may have the highest 

catering budget, but they have 

the lowest annual salary. Banks 

Peninsula board members are 

paid $9864 and the chair $19,729, 

UNSAVOURY COSTS: The Banks Peninsula Community Board 

now has the highest catering budget, setting aside an estimated 

$228 a meeting. 

whereas city board members 

are paid up to $24,580 and their 

chairs up to $49,160. 

Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton, 

has cut back its catering budget 

again after coming under fire 

mid-way through last term. It has 

reduced its budget from $78 to 

about $68 a meeting, it previously 

sat at $174. 

Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood 

will not have any catering 

after a decision was made last 

term to remove it. 

Coastal-Burwood will also go 

without any catering this term 

following “modest catering” last 

term. 

However, Mr Filsell said these 

board members would still have 

access to a kitchenette facility 

where they could make their own 

tea and coffee which would have 

no impact on the catering budget. 

He said options were being 

explored to reduce the Spreydon- 

Cashmere catering budget of 

$130 to around $90 a meeting. 

Linwood-Central-Heathcote 

has shaved about $25 off its 

catering budget by purchasing 

items directly from the 

supermarket as opposed to a 

catering supplier, bringing the 

budget to an estimated $75 a 

meeting. 

Papanui-Innes will spend 

a maximum of $50 a meeting 

following a decision to reduce costs 

last term.

Hosing ban 

for Akaroa, 

Duvauchelle 

and Takamatua 

A TOTAL hosing ban is now in 

place for Akaroa, Duvauchelle 

and Takamatua as very dry 

conditions put pressure on water 

supplies. 

The level four water restriction 

means people cannot use water 

outside their homes. 

The use of hand-held hoses, 

unattended hoses, sprinklers, and 

garden irrigation systems is not 

allowed and water to fill pools or 

paddling pools is also prohibited. 

City council head of Three Waters 

and Waste Helen Beaumont 

said a rapid drop in the streams 

that supply water to parts of 

Banks Peninsula has prompted 

the highest level of restrictions. 

“The streams that supply drinking 

water to Akaroa, Duvauchelle 

and Takamatua have dropped 

very suddenly following the recent 

extreme temperatures and drying 

north-westerly winds, and similar 

conditions are forecast to continue 

this month,” she said. 

Gardens can still be watered by 

collecting indoor water already 

used for washing vegetables, 

dishwashing or bathing.

Razor Robertson giving Sumner 

grass roots rugby an edge 

• By Gordon Findlater 

HE MAY have started his bid for 

a fourth straight Super Rugby 

title with the Crusaders, but 

coach Scott Robertson still has 

time for something at the grass 

roots which makes him tick. 

Robertson might be one of the 

biggest names in World Rugby, 

but outside of the day-to-day 

running of the Crusaders it’s the 

progression of his local Sumner 

colts side playing on the back of 

his mind. 

This comes to fruition on 

Tuesday and Thursday evenings 

when Robertson finishes his day 

with the Crusaders at Rugby 

Park and heads to colts training 

to help the Sumner teenagers as 

what he describes as a technical 

adviser role for the team. 

“I’m just giving back,” said 

Robertson. 

In the past Sumner have 

tried, but failed to establish and 

maintain a colts side – which is 

crucial for the development of 

players out of secondary school 

before moving to premier grade. 

Robertson had the same pathway 

to achieve his dreams as a 

teen at the Mt Maunganui club 

before moving south. He now 

hopes Sumner will be able to 

offer the same opportunity for its 

local players. 

“That’s what I would like, the 

opportunity for one of the local 

boys from Sumner to have what 

I had and be given a pathway to 

achieve what they can and play 

for Canterbury, Crusaders and 

the All Blacks.” 

Robertson – a life member at 

Sumner – says the emergence of 

the Storm colts team this year is 

a massive step for the club. 

“Colts grade is tough. We 

know the participation rates in 

rugby is an area that needs attention 

and it’s a real challenge 

for us. 

“Being involved is just what 

anyone would do for their club, 

just to keep to connected with 

the young players because we 

know how important they are for 

our game,” said Robertson. 

It’s easy to see that Sumner has 

a special place in Robertson’s

heart. He has lived in the seaside 

community for 20 years and 

began his coaching career with 

the club. He was a player coach 

for the club’s top side and after 

undefeated division 2 campaigns 

in 2008 and 2009 they gained 

promotion to the premier 

competition for the first time 

in 2010. He coached the side to 

a debut 6th-place finish, before 

concentrating on his role with 

Canterbury at the time. 

His passion for the colts team 

has already rubbed off on some 

of its players. First-five Ollie 

Lewis played his junior rugby 

at Sumner and now after five 

years at Christchurch Boys’ 

High School – which included 

playing for New Zealand Schools 

last year – is returning to his 

boyhood club with the Storm. 

“We just had a little gettogether 

the other week and he 

was really passionate. I think all 

the boys thought, hang on this is 

something else. It’s pretty cool to 

have him come along and show 

how much passion he has for the

club,” said Lewis. 

“I don’t think too many clubs 

have a Super Rugby coach 

coming down to training.” 

The 18-year-old was part of 

a very strong junior side also 

called the Storm several years 

ago. 

Lewis says the side spent four 

years together and could count 

the amount of losses they had 

on one hand. The boys then 

departed for secondary school 

and many eventually played first 

XV rugby. 

However, five years ago 

somewhat of a pact was made to 

regroup in 2020 and get a colts 

team running. 

“We always wanted to come 

back and play for Sumner,” said 

Lewis. 

The side is coached by Gareth 

D’Almeida who was a player 

under Robertson’s reign with the 

club’s premier side. 

“It’s been a long time in the 

making,” said D’Almeida. 

“There’s a good core group of 

them that played junior rugby 

together for Sumner. They would 

have been eight or nine. They’ve 

had Storm 2020 gear for the last 

three years. That’s always been to 

finish school and aim for 2020. 

“If you don’t have colts, you 

don’t have a pathway. They go 

to first XV, but where do they 

go from there. If you’re a sharp 

half-back or first-five you might 

go straight to div one, but ideally 

they want to play premier colts 

for a year and go from there.” 

D’Almeida says that Robertson 

has played a key role in establishing 

the colts side and believes his 

presence at training is a massive 

boost for the players. 

“Razor’s been involved with 

that right through the years as 

well. He’s certainly there to help 

. . . he’s just keen to see it get off 

the ground,” said D’Almeida. 

“If you’re a budding young 

rugby player and you’ve got the 

Crusaders head coach cruising 

around, it’s absolutely a big 

drawcard and equally he could 

have been the All Blacks coach.” 

Robertson says his involvement 

with Sumner is just one 

aspect to his values of wanting 

to give back to grass roots rugby 

which he fondly remembers 

growing up. He also expressed 

he has and open door policy for 

coaches from club rugby to come 

into the Crusaders and up-skill. 

“Grass roots rugby is the lifeblood 

of communities and the 

spirit of our nation, so everyone’s 

got their little part to play,” said 

Robertson. 

“I think it’s key that everyone 

has a role in their club. I just see 

the role in my club as connecting 

people and to get people to 

continue their love for rugby.”

Tram shelter repairs 

complete after delays 


THE WAIT is finally over 

for Redcliffs residents 

wanting to see the Moncks

Redcliffs Residents’ 

Association secretary Pat 

McIntosh said she was 

“delighted” the historic 

structure has reopened. 

Members had been 

frustrated over the length 

of time it took city council 

contractors to finish 

repairs. 

“I’m pleased to hear that 

it’s done and that the obstructions 

will be removed 

to it can be used again,” Ms 

McInstosh said.

the city council delayed 

pushed out the completion 

date until the end of 

December, and then to the 

end of January. 

It was because further 

design work was required

strengthening of the 

shelter was required and 

also a delay with the supply

Cycle ride fundraiser ends in Bluff 

• By Matt Slaughter 

WILLIAM HICKFORD, 

of Lyttelton, has pedalled 

the length of New Zealand 

to raise $8560 for people 

with dementia and 

Alzheimer’s disease. 

William, 17, cycled about 

3000km from Cape Reinga 

to Bluff between December 

28 and January 17, with 

Holly Ffowcs Williams joining 

him on the South Island 

leg of the ride and finishing 

one day later. 

William was inspired to 

complete the ride to help 

people like his grandfather 

Roy Pemberton, who has 

dementia and also cycled 

the length of New Zealand 

for charity about seven 

years ago. 

William and his bike got 

through the ride without 

issue. 

“Bike-wise, absolutely 

nothing went wrong and 

then pretty much the same 

with my body, I had no 

problems the whole way 

down,” he said. 

The highlight of William’s 

journey was riding 

over the Haast Pass but 

there was no better feeling 

for him than finishing. 

“I was just so relieved not 

having to wake up the next 

day and get on my bike.” 

William said his family 

are “all super proud” of him 

for what he has achieved 

FINISH LINE: William Hickford and Holly Ffowcs 

Williams at the finish line in Bluff. 

and his grandfather is “just 

a bit jealous that he wasn’t 

allowed to come with me.” 

Holly, who also went 

to Cashmere, said the 

South Island leg took a 

physical and mental toll. 

She stopped for physio on 

her knees in Wanaka but 

powered through to finish 

the ride. 

She said crossing the finish 

line was a great feeling 

but the reality has not sunk 

in yet. 

“The scenery for the last 

two days was very boring, I 

would never do it again.” 

William and Holly’s 

next goal is to reach their 

$10,000 fundraising target.

Pony ride could stretch finances 

SO, MY financial future may be 

in dire straits. But boy, I’m so 

proud of Vittoria. 

Continuing the fun of birthday 

season we had another second 

birthday, this time in rural North 

Canterbury. 

Being that it was farmyardthemed 

there were a few animals 

in attendance – rabbits, guinea 

pigs and a few hot cows hiding in 

some shade in a back paddock. 

However, the grand flourish was 

a pair of ponies available for rides. 

Vittoria had only seen ponies 

at Willowbank previously but 

didn’t seem too put out by them 

or even excited when we arrived. 

Her first reaction was to run right 

past them to go down a slide a 

few times. 

Other kids were happily taking 

short rides on either one of the 

ponies, which got Laura and I 

curious as to whether Vittoria 

would be willing to do the same. 

She did not take a huge amount 

of convincing, I asked her once 

and she happily followed me 

over to a waiting steed and let me 

lift her onto the saddle without 

complaint. 

I was worried she would fall 

off as soon as I let go, so hovered 

about a bit while the woman organising 

the rides got her sorted 

– including putting her helmet 

on, which surprisingly elicited not 

even a squeak out of her. 

GIDDY-UP: The moment my 

financial future fell into a state 

of jeopardy. 

With my worries still lurking 

about, I tried to keep a reassuring 

hand on Vittoria’s back (ready 

to grab her should she make 

an insane dive from the pony). 

But it became apparent pretty 

quickly that she was in no need of 

Daddy’s help. 

She sat in the saddle perfectly, 

confidently. Her expression calm, 

back straight, her body moving 

slightly to allow for the movement 

of her mount. 

Within about 5m of her ride, I 

VITTORIA 

& Matt 

stood back in amazement. 

As far as my talent goes on 

horseback, I’ve only got fleeting 

memories of some lessons I took 

inland of Waikuku. 

My great-grandmother Mary 

Matches was known in her 

younger days as a rather skilled 

horse-breaker and talented rider, 

so I’m guessing her skills have 

jumped a few generations. 

Unfortunately, in another 

unlike-my-great-grandmother 

moment, I neither live on a farm 

nor own a horse. So if a passion 

for equestrian pursuits has been 

awakened in Vittoria, I’m looking 

at a long future of forking out 

for pony clubs, lessons and, God 

forbid, a ruddy horse. 

Expensive as that all may be, 

if it would give her as much 

happiness as that pony ride 

did on Saturday and she’s truly 

passionate, I’ll make it happen.

BIRDS OF THE ESTUARY 

Waterfowl not to be 

mistaken for a duck 

Tanya Jenkins is the manager of the Avon-Heathcote 

Estuary Ihutai Trust, a non-profit organisation 

formed in 2002 to protect one of New Zealand’s 

most important coastal wetlands. Each week she 

introduces a new bird found in the estuary. Her 

column aims to raise the understanding of the 

values and uniqueness of the area. 

ONE OF several resident waterfowl 

species in our estuary is the 

New Zealand native shoveler or 

kuruwhengi. 

It is easily mistaken for the 

Mallard duck but if you look 

carefully you will notice that 

the shoveler has an enormously 

large bill which is very handy 

when sieving water and mud for 

insects, plankton and small fish. 

There have been as many as 

2000 counted in and around our 

estuary and all this time you may 

have thought they were all just 

common mallard ducks. 

It is a tough job for the female 

laying a many as 10 eggs which 

she will incubate on her own and 

then bring up the youngsters all 

by herself. 

Not likely we will see mum 

and her brood in our estuary, as 

she prefers to keep them hidden 

during the day and instead feed

bills, which help them to sieve 

water to find their food.

them at night to protect the 

family. These birds only live up 

to seven years – not very old for a 

bird species. 

How can we help these birds 

thrive? Keep dogs on the lead 

when walking near the estuary 

as to not disturb them while they 

are nesting, feeding or resting.

Few tickets left for concert 

• By Matt Slaughter 

SELWYN SOUNDS looks set to 

sell out. 

The March 7 festival will see 

acts including Icehouse, 10cc, 

Zed and Jed Parsons grace the 

stage at Lincoln Domain. 

Event director David Parlane 

said he expects a capacity crowd 

of 10,000 people will be enjoying 

the music, food trucks and 

stocked bar on the day. 

Said Mr Parlane: 

“We’re into our last 

lot of tickets at the 

moment. For sure, this 

will be a sell-out before 

the event, I’m positive 

of that. 

“This certainly will 

be the summer concert 

of 2020 for Canterbury.” 

He is looking forward 

to seeing a high calibre of 

acts on the day. 

“To be honest, I’m looking 

forward to seeing them all. I have 

a real fondness for Icehouse, I’ve 

seen them three or four times 

live and they just are an outstanding 

unit, very professional 

and their stage show is pure 

quality from everything that 

they do. 

“I’m also looking forward to 

Jed Parsons

hearing 10cc and Dreadlock Holiday 

on the stage. That’s certainly 

going to be a highlight to have 

that pumping out across the 

park.” 

Christchurch poprock 

band Zed, will 

be playing Selwyn 

Sounds as part of their 

reunion tour after 

years about 15 years 

apart. 

Seeing Ultravox’s 

Midge Ure and his hits 

including Vienna live 

will be another highlight, 

said Mr Parlane. 

Mr Parlane said 

preparation for the event is 

almost finished. 

“It’s going to be a fun day. 

People coming in and getting 

together with their group, 

sitting around, listening to 

great music, having some 

really good food, a few drinks, 

dancing the afternoon and 

evening away. 

“It’s just a highlight for a whole 

lot of people every year.”

PUPILS FROM Heathcote Valley

have been preparing for the Grow

Festival. 

They will display gardens that

March 20-22. 

They will be joining pupils from 

St Marks, Banks Avenue School, 

St Albans Catholic School, West 

Rolleston, West Eyreton, West 

Melton and Burnside Primary. 

The gardens have been growing 

since late last year, but extra work 

was needed over the holidays. 

Grow Ō Tautahi festival director 

Sandi MacRae said school kids 

will be on-site during the festival 

to talk to visitors about their gardens 

and what they represent.” 

The school garden creations will 

include an edible salad bowl, a 

celebration of native plants, a focus 

on wellness, a reflection on life in 

the red zone and many more ideas. 

Grow Ō Tautahi is a free, 

homegrown festival designed 

specifically for Christchurch. It 

is a creative and environmentally 

aware event that draws on the 

best ideas from the community, 

schools, garden designers, 

scientists, food gatherers and chefs.

Saving Missy 

by Beth Morrey 

Ferrymead 

Prickly. Stubborn. Terribly lonely. 

But everyone deserves a second chance… 

A dazzling debut for 2020 – are you ready to meet 

Missy Carmichael? 

Missy Carmichael’s life has become small. 

Grieving for a family she has lost or lost touch with, she’s 

haunted by the echoes of her footsteps in her empty home; the sound of the 

radio in the dark; the tick-tick-tick of the watching clock. 

Spiky and defensive, Missy knows that her loneliness is all her own fault. 

She deserves no more than this; not after what she’s done. But a chance 

encounter in the park with two very different women opens the door to 

something new. 

Another life beckons for Missy, if only she can be brave enough to grasp the 

opportunity. But seventy-nine is too late for a second chance. Isn’t it? 

My Dark Vanessa 

by Kate Elizabeth Russell 

An era-defining novel about the relationship between a fifteen-year-old girl 

and her teacher. All he did was fall in love with me and the world turned him 

into a monster! 

Vanessa Wye was fifteen-years-old when she first had sex with her English 

teacher. She is now thirty-two and in the storm of allegations against 

powerful men in 2017, the teacher, Jacob Strane, has just been accused of 

sexual abuse by another former student. 

Vanessa is horrified by this news, because she is quite certain that the 

relationship she had with Strane wasn’t abuse. It was love. She’s sure of that. 

Forced to rethink her past, to revisit everything that happened, Vanessa has 

to redefine the great love story of her life – her great sexual awakening – as 

rape. Now she must deal with the possibility that she might be a victim, and 

just one of many. 

Nuanced, uncomfortable, bold and powerful, My Dark Vanessa goes straight 

to the heart of some of the most complex issues our age.

Tasty Bites 

Kebabs to make your mouth water 

Grilled Chilean Beef Kebabs 

with Chimichurri Sauce and 

Coriander Rice is an easy, 

flavourful any-day meal. 

Substitute button mushrooms 

for the beef for a vege 

alternative. If going low-carb, 

use cauliflower rice and if 

coriander isn’t your thing then 

serve with your favourite 

sauce and rice side-dish 

Grilled Chilean Beef Kebabs 

with Chimichurri Sauce and 

Coriander Rice 

Makes 8 kebabs 

Ingredients 

1kg beef – tenderloin, ribeye 

or sirloin, cut into 4cm cubes 

(or substitute 500g button 

mushrooms) 

2 Tbsp oil 

2 Tbsp lime juice, plus zest of one 

lime 

2 garlic cloves – finely minced 

1 tsp onion powder 

1 tsp dried oregano or thyme 

1 tsp cumin 

1½ tsp salt 

½ tsp pepper 

Skewer additions: cherry 

tomatoes, onion 

Chimichurri Sauce 

1 bunch coriander 

½ cup olive oil 

2 Tbsp lime juice 

1 jalapeno (use less, or more if 

you like) 

½ cup chopped onion 

1 garlic clove 

½ tsp smoked paprika 

½ tsp salt 

Coriander Rice 

2 cups water 

1 cup rice, rinsed 

pinch salt 

¼ cup coriander- chopped 

3 spring onions – chopped 

1 lime 

Garnish: lime wedges 

Directions 

Soak eight 25cm wooden skewers 

in warm water. 

Cut the beef into cubes and 

place in a zip lock bag or in a 

medium bowl. 

Mix oil, lime juice and zest, 

garlic, spices, salt and pepper in a 

small bowl. Pour over the beef and 

seal the bag, shaking and mixing 

so all the beef is coated. Set aside. 

Pre-heat a hotplate, BBQ or your 

favourite skillet if it’s large enough. 

In a medium pot, add water and 

rice, bring to a boil. Cover, simmer 

on low heat for 20min. 

In the meantime, make the 

chimichurri. Place all the ingredients 

in a food processor, and 

pulse repeatedly (10-15 times) 

until the coriander and onion are 

all minced well. It need not be 

smooth, but more like the consistency 

of pesto. Place in a small 

bowl. Set aside. 

Make the skewers alternating 

beef, cherry tomato, onion slice, 

then repeat until skewer is full. 

3-4 pieces of beef on each skewer. 

Grill the skewers over medium 

high heat, rotating until meat 

is nicely charred and cooked to 

desired done-ness. 

Place rice in a bowl, squeeze 

with lime, and scatter the 

coriander and green onions over 

the top. Serve immediately.

Who we are

basis across its 15 sites in the South Island. We operate across 

multiple media platforms (print, online, digital) delivering news, 

information and entertainment through our various regional 

and city publications, including printing and publishing of 

newspapers from our print centre in Dunedin and a commercial 

print facility in Alexandra.

Reporting to the Operations Manager, the main purpose of 

the position is to ensure smooth running of our newspaper, 

commercial publication and facility maintenance.

• Preventative maintenance is prioritised to ensure minimal 

downtime. 

The business has just invested in a major upgrade to the 

electrical/electronic systems on the printing press, scheduled to 

commence in the New Year. This presents the ideal opportunity 

to learn from the installation and commissioning engineers to 

enable the successful candidate to hit the ground running. 

Your skills and experience 

We are looking for a registered Electrician ideally from an 

Industrial background holding a current practising licence. The 

ideal candidate would be competent and confident in using 

computers and experienced in PLC’s, Analogue/Digital control 

and AC/DC motor drive systems. Although not essential, 

knowledge of Goss Press and Ferag mailroom will be a bonus. 

Further details 

This is a full-time permanent position working the day shift from 

Monday to Friday, with rostered ‘On call’. 

As well as a competitive salary, we offer you a great team 

environment, minimal commute time, being based within 

Dunedin city, professional development opportunities, job 

security and opportunity to grow. Training and support will be 

provided for the successful applicant.
