Proving age is no barrier 

to keeping fit and mobile 

• By Samantha Mythen 

LIN CLARK, an 81-year-old 

energetic gym-goer believes 

age is no excuse for not making 

your fitness and mobility a 

priority. 

Clark makes up a trio of 

inspiring active ladies attending 

the Female Federation gym in 

Ferrymead who all share their 

birthdays this month. 

Isabel Mundy and Ngaire 

Onekawa are both set to turn 

80-years-old this month, on 

February 7 and 18 respectively. 

Clark’s 82nd birthday is on February 

15. 

All three powerhouse ladies 

regularly attend the gym, taking 

part in Pilates and balance 

classes, as well as working on 

their own cardio and weights 

routines. 

They are choosing to stay 

fit and healthy, defying the 

stereotype that aging holds you 

back from achieving an active 

lifestyle. 

Decked out with a Crusaders 

tattoo and a Rugby World Cup 

tattoo on each wrist, Onekawa is 

a keen sportswoman. 

She has always been active.

Interest in Mexican restaurant rises 

• By Bea Gooding 

EXCITEMENT IS building in 

Linwood as residents anticipate 

the opening of the city’s very first 

Taco Bell restaurant in the area. 

Construction of the $1.3m 

Mexican-inspired fast food restaurant 

at the Eastgate Mall site 

started last month and is set to 

open later this year. 

Linwood resident Simon Fisher 

was walking to Subway with his 

son Shane when he shared his 

excitement for the suburb’s newest 

addition. 

He could not wait to start 

tucking into their fresh tacos, 

salads and desserts. 

“It’s great, I’ve always wanted a 

Taco Bell in Christchurch. I used 

to live in Australia and we had 

lots of Taco Bells.” 

New Brighton resident Linda 

Rowlinson, who was waiting for 

a bus outside Eastgate, regularly 

visits the area. She likes Mexican 

food, so having a new option in 

Linwood was something to look 

forward to. 

“I think it’s great. I’m up here 

shopping all the time; I live in 

New Brighton and there’s nothing 

there so we’ve got to come up 

here,” she said. 

She believes the area has been 

targeted for these types of outlets 

but was not concerned because 

“people should have a variety.” 

Jacob Chatterton, of Linwood, 

is looking forward to the prospect 

of getting a job at the restaurant 

more than eating 

its food. 

“I’ve never had Taco 

Bell. But if I don’t have a 

job by then, I’ll definitely 

apply to work there. 

“I think everyone 

around here will like it 

Jacob 

Chatterton 

more, and it means less 

people at McDonald’s 

and KFC. The only thing 

healthy for a takeaway here is the 

Subway.” 

But its proximity to other outlets 

has caused some concern. 

It joins a group of restaurants 

within 200m of Linwood Avenue 

School, including KFC, McDonald’s, 

Burger King and 

Domino’s pizza, with 

other options inside 

Eastgate Mall. 

Said principal Gretchen 

Smith: “For us as a 

school, we have constant 

temptation at the gate, 

fuelled by the power 

of the brand, and the 

aroma of fast food wafting 

over the school on a daily 

basis, which can be appetising or 

nauseating.”

being built in Linwood, Simon Fisher, 

along with son Shane, is looking 

forward to Mexican food.

•HAVE YOUR SAY: What’s 

your view on another fast 

food outlet in the area? 

Email bea.gooding@ 

starmedia.kiwi 

This comes after a study published 

last week in the Preventive 

Medicine journal by Canterbury 

University revealed a correlation 

between poor mental health 

and people living in unhealthy 

environments. 

People experiencing recent 

mental distress or received a diagnosis 

had a greater likelihood 

of living near fast food or alcohol 

outlets, with less access to parks 

and waterways, the study found. 

The findings highlighted a 

need for local councils and governments 

to create environments 

that support healthy lifestyles, 

lowering the risk of mental illness 

and distress. 

Smith said the school was not 

consulted on the matter seeing as 

the area is a commercial zone. 

Starting this year, the school 

will supply lunch every day 

as part of the Ministry of 

Education’s “lunch in school” 

programme, to help pupils meet 

their nutritional needs. 

“The big brands that target this 

area will, of course, say that they 

are just meeting the demands of 

the local community and that 

they offer healthy alternatives 

such as salad and water, or that 

they give back to the community.” 

It is not the first time concerns 

regarding the proliferation of fast 

food restaurants in Linwood has 

been raised. 

In 2016, a petition was presented 

to the city council to ban fast 

food restaurants within 800m of 

schools. 

But residents have yet to see 

action as the city council said 

it was not able to change the 

district plan to regulate fast food 

until this year.

Saving Justice Truth, Transparency, and Trust 

by James Comey 

This will not come as a surprise to anyone, including even to the President’s most 

ardent defenders: Donald Trump lied to me from the start. 

Saving Justice is James Comey’s searing memoir and guide to reclaiming truth in 

the institutions of justice, which have been so badly damaged under Trump. Trump 

has managed to convince millions of Americas that our federal justice system 

doesn’t operate with integrity and that its leaders routinely fail to tell the truth. That 

is a dangerous situation that must be addressed and corrected. 

James Comey has worked in government in Republican and Democratic 

administrations - as a line federal prosecutor, a US Attorney, Justice Dept official, 

and Director of the FBI - and he shares stories from his career that illuminate 

the indispensable core values of America’s justice institutions and why we must 

overcome and repair the corrosive damage Trump and his underlings have done 

with deception, alternative facts, dishonesty, political payback, and amorality. 

Oscar Garden A Tale of One Man’s Love of Flying 

by dr Annamaria Garden 

One day in 1930, a man walked into a department store in London and bought 

an aeroplane. Having just learned to fly, Oscar Garden dreamed of flying to 

Australia. In his newly purchased aeroplane, he did just that. This adventure 

and myriad of others this risk-taker embarked on are recounted in this book. 

Oscar’s love of flying saw him joy riding to many places in the world, including 

New Zealand, South Africa, and up through Africa to Palestine. While based 

in London, he joined British Airways and Imperial Airways flying flying boats 

across the Empire. Finally, he came to rest in Auckland, New Zealand, after 

delivering the Awarua, the second of New Zealand’s flying boats, used during 

World War II for communication and travel, reducing New Zealand’s isolation. 

He became Chief Pilot of TEAL, the New Zealand airline, for half of the war 

years and beyond, and eventually resigned due to serious disagreement over 

management and political agendas. This biography describes Oscar Garden’s 

fascinating journey through these episodes. 

Kremlin Winter 

russia and the Second Coming of Vladimir Putin 

by robert Service 

Vladimir Putin has dominated Russian politics since Boris Yeltsin relinquished the 

presidency in his favour in May 2000. He served two terms as president, before 

himself relinquishing the post to his prime minister, Dimitri Medvedev, only to return 

to presidential power for a third time in 2012. Putin’s rule, whether as president or 

prime minister, has been marked by a steady increase in domestic repression and 

international assertiveness. Despite this, there have been signs of liberal growth and 

Putin - and Russia - now faces a far from certain future. Robert Service, acclaimed 

biographer of Lenin, Stalin and Trotsky and one of our finest historians of modern 

Russia, brings his deep understanding of that country to bear on the man who leads 

it. He reveals a premier who cannot take his supremacy for granted, yet is determined 

to impose his will not only on his closest associates but on society at large. It is a 

riveting insight into power politics as Russia faces a blizzard of difficulties both at 

home and abroad. 

Sir Bob Charles - The Biography 

Limited edition by Geoff Saunders 

There are only 1963 copies of the Limited Edition available for sale. They 

are individually numbered and signed by Sir Bob Charles, offering readers a 

unique opportunity to own a piece of New Zealand’s golfing history. 1963 is 

significant, marking the year Sir Bob Charles became the first New Zealander to 

win a golfing major. This is the first comprehensive biography of Sir Bob Charles. 

He embarked upon a career that no New Zealander had chosen before - that 

of a full-time touring professional golfer. He competed in the “golden age” of 

professional golf in the 1960s and 1970s, and acquired the title of the “best 

putter in the world”. On the Senior PGA Tour from 1986 he became the man to 

beat. With his 1999 knighthood and his elevation to the Order of New Zealand 

in 2011 he has been honoured not only for his success as a golfer but also for 

the way he has lived his life. The combination of the narrative with over 160 

photographs makes Sir Bob Charles - The Biography, a stunning in-depth study 

of the life and times of this great New Zealand sportsman. 

Battle of Brothers 

William, Harry and the Inside Story of a Family in Tumult 

by robert Lacey 

The world has watched Prince William and Prince Harry since they were born. Raised 

by Princess Diana to be the closest of brothers, how have the boy princes grown into 

very different, now distanced men? From royal expert and bestselling author Robert 

Lacey, this book is an unparalleled insider account of tumult and secrecy revealing 

the untold details of William and Harry’s early closeness then estrangement. It asks 

what happens when two sons are raised for vastly different futures. Were the seeds 

of damage sowed as Prince Charles and Diana’s marriage painfully unraveled for 

all the world to see? What choices has Queen Elizabeth II made in marshalling her 

feuding heirs? What parts have Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle played in helping 

their husbands to choose their differing paths? And what is the real, unvarnished 

story behind Harry and Meghan’s dramatic departure? In the most intimate vision 

yet of life behind closed doors, with the family’s highs, lows and hardest decisions 

all laid out, this is a journey into royal life as never offered before.

‘It’s a relief to find you’re still strong’ 

• From page 1 

The mother of three children, 

seven grandchildren and 12 

great-grandchildren, played 

netball until she was 42. She 

even competed against her own 

daughters. 

Clark has always found her 

energy outdoors in nature; a keen 

hiker, horse rider and gardener. 

She owns a remote cabin in 

Lewis Pass, and although is not 

climbing the nearby mountain 

heights, she still loves to wander 

through the beech trees. 

Mundy, who lives in Horotane 

Valley, used to work in her 

family’s fruit and tomato 

business which kept her strong 

and fit. When she finished up 

working, she decided to head to 

the gym. She’s been attending 

three times a week for the past 

four years. 

Onekawa, of Aranui, has kept 

up consistent gym practice for 

more than 12 years. She now 

attends Female Federation five 

times a week. 

Onekawa can do multiple 

push-ups, straight-backed 

with her knees up. She also said 

she can do side plank rotations 

and dips, and has completed 

200m within 15 minutes on the 

ski erg. 

Clark knows the importance of 

rest days. She has been attending 

the gym on and off since 1998, 

CAMARADERIE: Lin Clark, Isabel Mundy and Ngaire Onekawa all attend the gym multiple 

times a week, incorporating cardio, strength training, Pilates and balance exercises into 

their practice. 


and in spite of a hip replacement 

taking her out of the game for 

a while, she is building up her 

practice one again. Clark enjoys 

chin-ups, the chest press and leg 

press. 

“It’s a relief to find you’re still 

strong,” she said. 

When answering why they 

attended the gym, Onekawa 

promptly stood up from her 

chair. “This is why,” she said. 

Mundy agreed: “To keep my 

core strong!” 

Clark said: “As you get older, 

the physical stuff becomes 

terribly important and you 

become more aware of your body 

and how it works.” 

“Coming to the gym is a 

positive step to being a strong 

and complete person.” 

For Clark, getting to the gym 

is also important for the mental 

benefits. Her life passions have 

been education and theatre; 

in 2019, she was awarded the 

prestigious Drama New Zealand 

President’s Award, given to 

someone who has significantly 

contributed to the drama space 

over their lifetime. 

They all share the same goal: 

To keep going. 

There is strong camaraderie 

between the three women, 

and they love being part of 

the community at Female 

Federation. 

Onekawa said she gets coffee 

twice a week with her new found 

gym friends. 

“It’s a sisterhood here,” said 

Clark. 

Jill Kennedy, their personal 

trainer is 64-years-old. She 

only has glowing reviews of 

the fitness levels of the three 

women. 

“I cannot wait til I retire to 

be able to work out with them 

all.” 

Clark said: “We are lucky 

enough to be able to work out, 

and so we choose to make the 

most of this and continue to stay 

fit.”

Red zone fences come down 

KILOMETRES OF fencing 

inside the former residential 

red zones are being removed to 

make the areas more accessible 

to the public and more efficient 

to maintain. 

City council residential red 

zone manager Brenden Winder 

said most of the existing fences 

inside the regeneration areas 

were no longer required. 

The areas include the Ōtākaro 

Avon River Corridor, Southshore, 

South New Brighton and 

Brooklands. 

Removing the fences will 

make the land more inviting 

for visitors and improve the city 

council’s efficiency in maintaining 

the areas, said Winder. 

“The majority of these fences 

were put up to improve public 

safety as the land was cleared of 

buildings following the earthquakes,” 

he said. 

“With those buildings now 

gone, the internal fences are no 

longer required and we want to 

minimise obstruction for people 

wishing to use the area. 

“We’ll look at ways to repurpose 

the posts, poles and wire 

elsewhere in the other regeneration 

areas.” 

Perimeter fencing along 

roads that pass through the 

regeneration areas will remain 

in place to provide security and 

meet the community’s safety

expectations. 

Fences around land containing 

existing lease holdings will 

also remain in place. 

The city council has established 

a residential red zone 

parks’ team. Maintenance officers 

and rangers will maintain 

and look after the city’s regeneration 

areas. 

On July 1 last year the ownership 

of the Brooklands and 

Southshore-South New Brighton 

regeneration areas transferred 

from Land Information New 

Zealand to the city council. 

The Port Hills regeneration 

areas will transfer to the city 

council ownership in May. 

Ownership of the Ōtākaro 

Avon River Corridor land 

will gradually transfer from 

the Crown to the city council 

as LINZ completes title

work of 29 land parcels. 

That work is already under 

way. 

Exhibition of dune plants 

at New Brighton Library 

BRIAR COOK is showcasing her 

native dune plants exhibition at the 

New Brighton Library this month. 

The exhibition holds a special 

place for New Brighton artist – it is 

a dedication to her father, eminent 

horticulturalist, Alleyne Cook, who 

died in October 2019. 

Cook grew up surrounded by 

plants and as a child, followed her 

father around the garden asking 

him every question she could think 

of. 

Although she has worked as an 

artist for about 30 years, often with 

plant material, she never imagined 

they would be shared with others. 

“My first impulse was to simply 

see more clearly the plants I was

drawing. Once I started looking 

closely at our beautiful native 

plants, I wanted to learn more, and 

then I wanted to share what I have 

learned with everyone,” Cook said. 

“I am proud of this project, which 

was created with funding from the 

creative communities scheme and 

this resource is for any age, who is 

interested in the native plants who 

call our sand dunes home. 

“In my opinion, any definition 

of the New Brighton community 

needs to include the plants that 

make our lives here possible. I 

hope this resource will encourage 

everyone living close to the sea to 

take a closer look at these beautiful 

community members.”

basic servicing and warrants through to 

major work like clutches, replacement 

coilovers and bushings. Kevin is a very 

honest guy who gets the job done in a very 

timely manor and he has outstanding 

communication. The overall service I’ve 

received is excellent. – Lachlan Poole 

I know it’s not always about price but 

sometimes, when it comes to vehicle repairs, 

you just want a perceived good deal and work 

carried out by someone who seems to care. 

Kevin came recommended by a friend, and 

what a great recommendation. His work was 

clean, efficient, fast and came in under what 

I thought it was going to cost. So we took my 

partner’s car there two days later and that 

too was completed faster than we expected 

and at an almost unbelievable cost. 

Give Parker Automotive a shot next 

time you need something done. Kevin 

is a nice fella too, win win. – Mark 

Lewis

rates increase over 10 years.
