Akaroa<br />
tourism<br />
soars but<br />
challenge<br />
remains<br />
• By Bea Gooding<br />
AKAROA BUSINESSES are<br />
pleased by tourism’s return but<br />
some fear the worst may yet come.<br />
Many retail, hospitality and accommodation<br />
providers reported<br />
a better <strong>July</strong> compared to last year,<br />
buoyed by local tourists emerging<br />
from lockdown.<br />
However, the prospect of<br />
operating without international<br />
tourists sparked concern.<br />
Bully Hayes Restaurant and Bar<br />
owner Wayne Jones said business<br />
bounced back to pre-Covid 19<br />
levels, and was 5 per cent better<br />
than last year.<br />
Eased travel restrictions, then<br />
the winter school holidays, meant<br />
the village bustled during a traditionally<br />
quiet time of the year.<br />
Seventy per cent of the market<br />
in Akaroa was domestic, but it<br />
would be a “big hole to fill” the<br />
absence of international visitors,<br />
he said.<br />
Things would be “very difficult”<br />
before Christmas. The loss of the<br />
government’s wage subsidy may<br />
have an impact, he said.<br />

Surf event honours ‘kind-hearted’ man<br />
• By Matt Slaughter<br />
THE SINGLE Fin Mingle<br />
surfing event in Sumner over the<br />
weekend honoured a special past<br />
contributor who died last year<br />
after a battle with mental illness.<br />
Event<br />
organiser,<br />
Ambrose<br />
McNeill’s<br />
brother<br />
Abraham<br />
McNeill, who<br />
Ambrose<br />
McNeill<br />
Abraham<br />
McNeill<br />
was from<br />
Sumner, died<br />
in November<br />
aged 38.<br />
Abraham<br />
was a talented<br />
jazz musician<br />
who played<br />
at a number<br />
of Single Fin<br />
Mingle’s since<br />
the event<br />
began in 2015.<br />
Ambrose<br />
used this year’s event to spread<br />
awareness of mental health and<br />
the need for alternative treatments<br />
by handing out “Abrahands”<br />
stickers with hands reaching out<br />
to each other on them for a small<br />
donation.<br />
It has not been decided exactly<br />
where the money raised will be<br />
donated but Ambrose said it will<br />
CELEBRATION: The Single Fin Mingle event over the weekend featured surfing<br />
competitions, live music, surfing movies and an art exhibition.<br />
go towards an alternative mental<br />
health therapy.<br />
Said Ambrose: “One thing<br />
Abe was pretty passionate about<br />
was that there needs to be an<br />
alternative to treating mental<br />
health than there is at this point<br />
in time.<br />
“For me personally, and for<br />
my family, the event was pretty<br />
important and it will be every<br />
year for our healing and grieving<br />
of my brother.<br />
“Abe was involved with the<br />
event and would play music at<br />
the Single Fin Mingle and he was<br />
definitely still a part of the fabric<br />
this year and we felt his presence<br />
throughout and we had it pretty<br />
beautiful. I think he turned on<br />
the weather for us, that’s for<br />
sure,” he said<br />
Ambrose said Abraham was<br />
a “gorgeous, kind-hearted,<br />
loving man.”<br />
“[He was] an extremely gifted<br />
musician, talented musician. He<br />
played jazz guitar and would play<br />
at the Single Fin Mingle on our<br />
opening night and prizegiving<br />
most years.<br />
“He wasn’t so much a surfer<br />
himself like me but he’d grown<br />
up by the beach here in Sumner<br />
and everyone that knew him met<br />
a special human,” said Ambrose.<br />
This year’s Single Fin Mingle<br />
event itself included longboard<br />
surfing competitions, live music,<br />
surfing movies, and an art<br />
exhibition.<br />

Challenge<br />
for Akaroa<br />
• From page 1<br />
“The worst is still to come, we’re<br />
in a nice, honeymoon period<br />
but next year the hurt will really<br />
start. All support will disappear,<br />
there will be more job losses and<br />
businesses gone.<br />
“Some businesses don’t think<br />
that far ahead and only think to<br />
next week - you can’t plan like<br />
that. You’ve got to look six to eight<br />
months ahead and make plans to<br />
survive on domestic tourism until<br />
at least the end of next winter.”<br />
Just Souvenirs shop owner<br />
Graham Toner said demand was<br />
“nothing out of the ordinary for<br />
winter”. Not having cruise ships<br />
over summer would “put a huge<br />
dent” in summer trading.<br />
“It will be very difficult, so we’re<br />
rearranging business to mitigate<br />
that by aiming our products at Kiwis<br />
rather than overseas tourists.”<br />
Akaroa Village Inn owner<br />
Darren Angus said Kiwi travellers<br />
were “doing us proud,” with<br />
demand tracking better than <strong>July</strong><br />
last year.<br />
Akaroa District Promotions<br />
chairman Kevin Parthonnaud<br />
was pleased to see visitors from<br />
Canterbury, the West Coast and<br />
the North Island.<br />
“Demand has been good, the<br />
weekends seem to be fairly busy.<br />
Accommodation properties are<br />
reporting that weekends are<br />
busier than previous winters.”<br />
Lyttelton resident<br />
vying for Selwyn<br />
• By Devon Bolger<br />
BANKS Peninsula<br />
Community Board member<br />
Reuben Davidson is making<br />
a bid to be the next MP in<br />
Selwyn.<br />
“I can see in Selwyn, there<br />
is a large group of people who<br />
think they could be better<br />
served and so that is what<br />
motivated me to put my hand<br />
up and accept that challenge,”<br />
he said.<br />
“People who have traditionally<br />
voted for National can really<br />
see that the plan Labour<br />
has to recover and rebuild is<br />
going to be good for Selwyn<br />
as well as New Zealand.”<br />
The 42-year-old lives in<br />
Lyttelton and has been on the<br />
Banks Peninsula Community<br />
Board since last year.<br />
At the last election in 2017,<br />
Labour candidate for Selwyn<br />
Tony Condon received 20.77<br />
per cent of the votes against<br />
current Selwyn MP Amy<br />
Adams 65.86 per cent.<br />
Davidson said he would<br />
move to Selwyn if he happened<br />
to win the seat or<br />
becomes a Labour list MP. He<br />

is currently ranked 67th on<br />
the Labour list.<br />
He will still keep his role on<br />
the community board if he is<br />
elected.<br />
Davidson works as a series<br />
producer at Whitebait Media<br />
where he has been for 15 years.<br />
Most recently he created<br />
the T.V show Fanimals but he<br />
helped to produce What Now<br />
for seven years.<br />
Davidson said his time with<br />
the community board proved<br />
his passion for politics.<br />
“I have loved it so far. The<br />
work I have done through my<br />
life and also really recently at<br />
a community level has really<br />
motivated me to get more<br />
involved at a political level.”<br />
He said a key value for him<br />
is hard work.<br />
“I got my first job by the time<br />
I was 14, working at Espresso<br />
124 on the terrace. I lived within<br />
walking distance of school<br />
but I’d bus into the city to work<br />
starting at about 6.30am and<br />
then bus back for school.”<br />

Lifesaving device just a precaution<br />
THE SUMNER Tennis and<br />
Squash Club has bought a<br />
defibrillator – and it hopes it<br />
may never have to use it.<br />
The lifesaving machine can be<br />
taken offsite, is effectively fully<br />
automatic, and will be available<br />
for use in the community.<br />
Confirming the details, club<br />
president Glenn Seymour said<br />
it was installed at the club and<br />
could found using the AED<br />
locator app.<br />
Club membership “tends<br />
toward an older demographic,<br />
and although we hope the<br />
machine is never used, it may<br />
be a lifesaver.”<br />
“We would also like to alert<br />
the wider Sumner community<br />
to the machine’s presence,” he<br />
said.<br />
“With our membership having<br />
grown substantially in the<br />
past two years there are people<br />
at the club a good deal of the<br />
time and we are also looking at<br />
ways of providing emergency<br />
access to the club grounds.”<br />
The defibrilator was bought<br />
with the help of SBS Bank,<br />
which sponsors the club’s<br />
Tuesday night business house<br />
competition.<br />
The official AED locations<br />
website lists eight defibrilator<br />
sites in Sumner and Taylors<br />
Mistake. Not all machines are<br />
available at all times.<br />
National success for junior cyclist<br />
ACCOMPLISHED<br />
junior cyclist Amelia<br />
Sykes distinguished<br />
herself at two national<br />
competitions during<br />
<strong>July</strong>, buoyed by the<br />
support of a local trust.<br />
The Sumner athlete<br />
won the U17 girls time<br />
trial at the Age Group National<br />
Road Cycling Championships<br />
Amelia Sykes<br />
at Waipukurau.<br />
It was her first national<br />
road cycling title<br />
and a welcome addition<br />
to her collection of<br />
national track titles.<br />
Amelia also finished<br />
10th in the U17 road<br />
race.<br />
Earlier in <strong>July</strong>, she competed<br />
in the National Track Cycling<br />
Series at Avantimore in Cambridge.<br />
She was the overall leader in<br />
the B grade women (all ages)<br />
with wins in the points race,<br />
elimination, tempo and madison<br />
finals<br />
The former ice speed skater,<br />
who recently turned 16, said<br />
the competition had been<br />
invaluable.<br />

“I have learned new things,<br />

and building my base, and<br />
it was a nice atmosphere and<br />
community there.”<br />

a grant from the Sumner<br />

THOUGHTFUL: Lyttelton Primary<br />
School pupil Arlo Withell hopes<br />
the seafarer who gets this bag of<br />
chips will soon see their family.<br />
Pupils send messages<br />
to ship-bound seafarers<br />
SCHOOLS<br />
“I HOPE you see your<br />
family soon.”<br />
That was the simple,<br />
heartfelt message written<br />
by a Lyttelton Primary<br />
School pupil to one of the<br />
many seafarers unable<br />
to disembark their ships<br />
during the Covid-19 pandemic.<br />
It was written on a<br />
sticky label, and stuck to<br />
the side of one of more<br />
than a hundred bags of<br />
chips donated by Nelsonbased<br />
Proper Crisps.<br />
The donation was<br />
secured by Andrea Solzer,<br />
a Lyttelton-based parent<br />
of three children at the<br />
school. The chips will be<br />
safely distributed by the<br />
Seafarers Mission.<br />
Donations from Whittaker’s<br />
chocolates will<br />
accompany a package<br />
she hoped would lift the<br />
spirits of seafarers caught<br />
in a difficult situation.<br />
“They cannot come<br />
ashore they cannot leave<br />
to see their families. This<br />
is all out of their hands,<br />
and that touched me, like<br />
it has for many others.”<br />
Many of the school’s<br />
children took time last<br />
week to write their own<br />
messages to the sailors,<br />
in an act teacher Francie<br />
Graham reflected one<br />
of the school’s values –<br />
empathy.<br />
BEST WISHES: Carmella de<br />
la Maza Macpherson with her<br />
message to a seafarer, carefully<br />
stuck to the back of a bag of chips.<br />
Solzer said the<br />
message idea was<br />
inspired by those written<br />
on some of the goods<br />
donated to Canterbury<br />
families in the wake of<br />
the February 22, 2011,<br />
earthquake.<br />
New Zealand’s Covid-19<br />
alert level 1 rules mean<br />

quarantine for 14 days<br />

general population.<br />
This effectively means<br />
short-stay visitors on<br />
board visiting ships<br />
cannot leave their vessels<br />
unless they have been<br />
in New Zealand for two<br />
weeks and have tested<br />
negative for Covid-19.<br />

Tasty Bites<br />
Sweet parsnips the perfect winter warmers<br />
If it’s a spicy parsnip soup<br />
you’re after, this curried<br />
parsnip soup is sure to<br />
deliver. This gently spiced<br />
soup recipe is made<br />
with cumin, coriander,<br />
turmeric and ginger. It<br />
really is a heart-warming<br />
bowl of goodness<br />
Curried parsnip soup<br />
6 servings<br />
Ingredients<br />
750g parsnips (about 6-7), peeled<br />
2 tbsp olive oil<br />
¼ tsp ground cumin<br />
1 tsp ground coriander<br />
¼ tsp ground turmeric<br />
1½ tsp ground ginger<br />
½ tsp chilli powder, plus extra<br />
1 large onion, finely chopped<br />
2 garlic cloves, crushed<br />
2 bay leaves<br />
1.3 litres fresh vegetable stock<br />
Fresh coriander leaves to serve<br />
Directions<br />
Heat the oven to 180 deg C/160<br />
deg C fan. Slice about 100g of<br />
the parsnips very thinly on a<br />
mandoline or using a sharp knife.<br />
Pat dry with kitchen paper, toss<br />
with 1 tbsp of the oil, the cumin<br />
and some salt and pepper, then<br />
spread out on a large baking<br />
sheet. Bake for 20-25min until<br />
crisp and golden at the edges.<br />
Meanwhile, put the rest of the<br />
ground spices in a small frying<br />
pan and toast for 1-2min over a<br />
medium heat until fragrant.<br />
Heat the remaining oil in a<br />
large saucepan over a mediumhigh<br />
heat and fry the onion<br />
for 7-8min until softening.<br />
Meanwhile, chop the rest<br />
of the parsnips. Add the garlic<br />
to the onion pan and cook for<br />
2min more. Add the toasted<br />
spices and bay leaves and stir for<br />
a minute, then add the chopped<br />
parsnips and stock. Bring to the<br />
boil, then turn down to a medium<br />
heat and cook for 30min until the<br />
parsnips are tender.<br />
HEART-WARMING: (Left)<br />
– Curried parsnip soup,<br />
roasted parsnip and<br />
garlic puree.<br />
Remove and discard the bay<br />
leaves, then whizz the soup<br />
using a stick blender (or in a<br />
blender with the cap removed and<br />
a folded tea towel held over to<br />
stop the hot soup exploding out)<br />
until smooth. Season to taste.<br />
Sprinkle with the parsnip<br />
crisps, extra chilli powder and a<br />
few coriander leaves to serve.<br />
Roasted parsnip and<br />
garlic puree<br />
4 servings<br />
Ingredients<br />
1kg parsnips, peeled and cut<br />
into 5cm pieces<br />
3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil,<br />
divided<br />
Salt and freshly ground black<br />
pepper<br />
1 head garlic<br />
¾ cup milk<br />
4 tbsp butter<br />
2 tsp thyme leaves<br />
Directions<br />
Preheat oven to 200 deg C.<br />
Place parsnips on a large baking<br />
sheet and drizzle with 2 tbsp oil.<br />
Season with salt and pepper. Cut<br />
off top of garlic head and drizzle<br />
with remaining 1 tbsp oil. Wrap<br />
tightly in foil and place on a<br />
baking sheet with parsnips. Bake<br />
until parsnips are very tender,<br />
40min. Garlic should be golden<br />
and very soft; if not, place back<br />
in oven and continue to bake<br />
another 15min. Set aside until<br />
cool enough to handle.<br />
Place parsnips into a large<br />
bowl or food processor. Squeeze<br />
each clove of garlic into bowl<br />
with parsnips. Add milk, butter,<br />
and thyme and blend until smooth.<br />
Season with salt and pepper.<br />
I was born in the deep south, Tuatapere, gateway to Fiordland.<br />
I grew up among some stunning scenery but it wasn’t really until I<br />
travelled the world that I saw just how special it was.<br />
I am a Christchurch based, self-taught artist painting semi-abstract<br />
landscapes that are earthy and textural. My paintings are inspired<br />
by New Zealand landscape, particularly Central Otago, Mackenzie<br />
Country and Canterbury.<br />
My works are descriptive of landforms shaped by both natural<br />
forces and man. Weathering, erosion and human activity lead to an<br />
ever-changing terrain.<br />
There is often a touch of both flora and water in my paintings that<br />
allude to the idea of the land sustaining life.<br />
Flowing Through<br />
The paintings have layers of colour and texture through<br />
which I chisel, scrape, eliminate, add back and interact<br />
with the painting to reveal the essence of a landscape.<br />
I hope painting our NZ landscape may encourage the<br />
viewer to recognise the beauty of the land and to feel<br />
responsibility for looking after it.<br />

often tragic ways humans meet their end.<br />
A dead body without a trace of trauma; alien parasites; worms<br />
of the brain; crocodile attacks and bizarre eating disorders ...<br />
In The Quick and the Dead, pathologist Dr Cynric Temple-Camp<br />
takes readers into a world of disease and death as he seeks<br />
answers for those who were unlucky, and those still alive to tell<br />
the tale.<br />

What are you<br />
waiting for?<br />
We’ve watched<br />
how resilient the<br />
property market<br />
has been over the<br />
past few months, so<br />
rather than asking ‘if<br />
you should sell’, we<br />
want to know ‘why<br />
would you wait?’<br />
Now is a great time to sell!<br />
Craig Prier<br />
Strong buyer demand and less properties<br />
on the market means favourable selling<br />
conditions for vendors. It’s a simple<br />
situation of demand outstripping<br />
supply. Pre-approved buyers are taking<br />
advantage of record low interest rates<br />
and are turning up in droves to open<br />
homes and auctions. Multi offers are<br />
being presented and record prices are<br />
being achieved at auction.<br />
So, the question is “What are you<br />
waiting for?”<br />
