Bid to

a fizzer
• By Samantha Mythen
THE LYTTELTON community
has failed to rally together to
create a dedicated community
patrol, but one supporter is not
giving up.
In spite of receiving numerous
online support, no one showed up
to the meeting resident Rhodry
Yates had organised on Sunday.
Only Yates, Banks Peninsula
Community Board member
Reuben Davidson, and an
invited member of the City to
Sumner Community Patrol were
present.
“This is what tends to happen,”
he said.
“People say: ‘Yeah, I’m on
board.’ But then, when it comes
to taking practical action, it’s just
crickets.”
Yates said, in spite of the lack
of numbers, the meeting went
well and he is forging ahead with
practical action.

THE BEST of intentions
can often fall short, and that
seems to have happened with a
meeting to get people involved
in a community patrol (see
page 1).
Lyttelton resident Rhodry
Yates is trying to rally support
for a dedicated community patrol
in the port and surrounding
areas to curb what he and
others say is a lot of petty
crime. He should be applauded
for that.
The area is currently covered
by the City to Sumner Community
Patrol.
But nobody turned up to
the meeting - except for two
specific invitees, community
board member Reuben
Davidson and a City to
Sumner Community Patrol
member.
So either there isn’t the petty
crime that is being discussed
on social media, or nobody
really cares.

Long battle to beat boy racers
NEWS 3
In Brief
‘It’s a bit
like
clearing
gorse’
• By Samantha Mythen
POLICE ARE in it for the
long-term when it comes to
stopping boy racers.
Lyttelton police Sergeant
Gerard Peoples said the issue
requires a long-term effort.
“It is like clearing gorse, you
have to get on
top of it and
keep at it, otherwise
it will
keep coming
back. We are
in this for the
long-term,” he
Gerard
Peoples
said.
Lyttelton
police, together
with city traffic units, have been
conducting operations targeting
anti-social driver behaviour in
the harbour area over recent
months.
Peoples said they have since
been receiving positive feedback
from the local community, such
as residents from Cass Bay, and
because of this, know they are
making an impact.
In spite of these efforts,
Governors Bay residents are
still being woken up in the
early morning hours by noisy
vehicles.
A key problem area is the Dyers
Pass Rd, Governors Bay Rd
and Main Rd intersection.
Jessica Watson said she has
been woken up at least twice a
week between 1-3am from people
doing burnouts.
She said it was “such a shame”
as Governors Bay is usually such
a peaceful place.
Boy racers have long been an
issue but police want residents
to know it is an issue they
are continually working to
address.
Police data from the last two
months has shown complaints
received about boy racers in
Governors Bay has been decreasing.
For example, police received
10 complaints about boy racers
and general traffic issues
in January compared to six
complaints in February and
three in March.
Said Peoples: “We are aware
that there are still issues in the
Gebbies Pass area and that the
reopening of Dyers Pass Rd will

PROBLEM:
Boy racers are

issue but

residents to

the long-term
too.
result in more through traffic
but Lyttelton is a small station
with competing demands, so we
have to be very targeted in what
we do.”
Peoples is encouraging
the community to continue
reporting any boy racers, either
through calling 105 or by
reporting it online.
He said, although a unit
may not be available to attend,
reporting it will mean the local
police can accurately track when
and where the anti-social driver
behaviour is happening.
This will mean they can
tailor future operations
accordingly.
OUTWARD BOUND
THe Sumner Ferrymead
Foundation is providing the
opportunity for two residents
to take part in an Outward
Bound ‘classic’ course or an
adapted programme (for
those with impairments and
disabilities) in the Marlborough
Sounds. Application for both
these courses close June 19.

sumnerferrymeadfoundation.
co.nz/awards.php for criteria and
application forms. Phone 0274 326

RESERVE MANAGEMENT
THe Linwood-Central-Heathcote
Community Board recommended
that the city council accept the
control and management of the
reserve at 50 Bridle Path Rd,
taking over from the Department
of Conservation. The land area
will subsequently be managed as
apart of Birdsey Reserve.
PUMP KEEPS WATER AWAY
City council contractors worked
with Fire and Slice, a pizzeria,
in Sumner using a pump to
keep flood water away from the
business during the weekend
weather. Fire and Slice has
previously flooded during storms,
including in April.

NEW RELEASES
Churchill & Son
by Josh Ireland
A moving and revealing new portrait of Winston Churchill through the most important
relationship in his life - that with his son, Randolph.
Few fathers and sons can ever have been so close as Winston Churchill and his only
son Randolph. Both showed flamboyant impatience, reckless bravery, and generosity
of spirit. The glorious and handsome Randolph was a giver and devourer of pleasure,
a man who exploded into rooms, trailing whisky tumblers and reciting verbatim whole
passages of classic literature. But while Randolph inherited many of his fathers’ talents,
he also inherited all of his flaws. Randolph was his father only more so: fiercer, louder,
more out of control. Hence father and son would be so very close, and so liable to
explode at each other. As much as he idolised Winston and never lost faith in his father
during the long, solitary years of Winston’s decline, he was never able to escape from
the shadow cast by Britain’s great hero. The world, big as it was, only had space for one
Churchill. Instead of the glory he believed was his birthright, Randolph died young, his
body rotted by resentment and drink, before he could complete his father’s biography.
Billie Eilish
by Billie eilish
Billie Eilish is a phenomenon. With distinctive visual flare and darkly poignant lyrics
that are unparalleled among music icons of the 21st century, Billie is a musician
who stands out from the crowd.
Between her record-shattering award-winning music and her uncompromising and
unapologetic attitude, it’s no surprise that her fanbase continues to grow by millions
month after month. She is that rare combination of wildly popular and highly respected
for her prodigious talent, a once in a generation superstar.
Now in this stunning visual narrative journey through her life, she is ready to share
more with her devoted audience for the first time, including hundreds of neverbefore-seen
photos.
This gorgeous book will capture the essence of Billie inside and out, offering readers
glimpses into her childhood, her life on tour, and more. A must-have for any fan.
The Missing Sister
by Lucinda riley
They’ll search the world to find her. From the Sunday Times number one bestselling
author Lucinda Riley, The Missing Sister is the seventh instalment in the multimillioncopy
epic series The Seven Sisters.
The six D’Apliese sisters have each been on their own incredible journey to discover
their heritage, but they still have one question left unanswered: who and where is the
seventh sister?
They only have one clue - an image of a star-shaped emerald ring. The search to find
the missing sister will take them across the globe - from New Zealand to Canada,
England, France and Ireland - uniting them all in their mission to complete their family
at last. In doing so, they will slowly unearth a story of love, strength and sacrifice that
began almost one hundred years ago, as other brave young women risk everything to
change the world around them.
Bridge Over Troubled Dreams
by delta Goodrem
The emotional stories behind Delta Goodrem’s sixth studio album.
In her first-ever book, Australian singer-songwriter Delta Goodrem shares the intimate
stories behind each of the tracks on her sixth studio album, Bridge Over Troubled Dreams,
taking readers on a deep dive into her inspiration for each song and revealing the truth
behind the lyrics.
From the touching account of her birth – two months premature – to battling bouts of
missing home and many incredible self-discoveries along the way, Bridge Over Troubled
Dreams is truly the book of the artist’s life. She speaks candidly about love, family, highs
and lows, patience, freedom, faith, hope and survival, and how she uses lessons learned
to drive herself forward.
Delta’s heartfelt stories are accompanied by never-before-seen pictures from her personal
collection: candid behind-the-scenes shots, unreleased tour photos and even personal
snaps from her childhood.
Faking It: My Life in Transition
by Kyle Mewburn
Kyle Mewburn grew up in the sunburnt, unsophisticated Brisbane suburbs of the 1960s and
‘70s in a household with little love and no books, with a lifelong feeling of being somehow
wrong - like ‘strawberry jam in a spinach can’.
In this book, Kyle describes this early life and her journey to becoming her own person - a
celebrated children’s book author, a husband and, finally, a woman. She shares the dreams,
the prejudice and the agony of growing up trans and coming out, the lengthy physical ordeal
of facial feminisation surgery, and her experiences as a woman - good, bad and creepy.
This is a heartbreaking, often hilarious, candid true story about what it means to hide
from yourself, your partner and the world, and then to attain the freedom and acceptance
of being yourself.
A story with the bittersweet beauty you’d expect from the writer of Old Huhu that is relevant
for anyone wanting to know and understand the trans experience - or anyone wanting to
discover who they are and what they are meant to be.

Learning Exchange
re-inspiring Timebank
• By Samantha Mythen
LYTTELTON Timebank has a
new initiative that encourages
the community to share its
passions and skills with others.
It is called the Learning Exchange.
Community members run
workshops teaching others different
skills and knowledge on a
diverse range of subjects.
On Saturday, Marcia Bryant
talked fashion, helping workshop
attendees learn about picking
colours and clothing styles to suit
their specific selves.
The first workshop in April
was held by Pat Scott, who
shared her ideas of living in a
carbon neutral planet.
Another weekly workshop
focuses on mending clothes.
Participants meet every Tuesday
at 10.30am at The Shroom Room
when sunny, or in Lyttelton
Library when raining.
Timebank members can go
along to any of the workshops
and pay two timebank credits.
Other people, who are not
timebankers, are also welcome to
attend for a donation.
Timebank co-ordinator Jill
Larking said that over the years
EXCHANGE: Lyttelton Timebank members share their
passion for sewing and mending. PHOTO SUPPLIED
they have explored different ways
of reinvigorating the exchange
to gather new members and
keep old members engaged and
excited.
“The Learning Exchange is a
way to re-inspire and breathe
new light into the Timebank,”
she said.
The Lyttelton Timebank
was the first timebank in New
Zealand; their moto: “Creating
community, one trade at a time.”
Timebanking is a way to trade
skills in a community. Instead
of using dollars, time credits
are used as payment. Timebank
members earn time credits for the
work they do, and then use them
to ‘buy’ another member’s time to
get the services they need.
One hour of work always
equals one time credit, so everyone’s
time is equal.
Over the 15 years of activity,
the Timebank has seen more
than 800 members.
“Through trading, you meet
someone new, you learn something
new, you can create and
support the community,” said
Larking.

In discussion with Davidson,
Yates has decided to discard his
original idea of a petition for a
“better safeguarded community.”
“Petitions are great for lobbying,”
he said.
“But with this stuff, people
will happily sign it, and then
that’s it. But that’s not enough.”
The group discussed
putting up a billboard
advertising the patrol
with a call for new
members, as well as
passing out flyers with
information on who to
call if suspicious activity
is seen.
“We need to advertise
the community patrol
and get at least 20 new
members inducted and on
board,” he said.
Yates and friend, Lyttelton
business owner Matteo Sgaggero
are hoping to join the community
patrol.
“It takes nothing to complain
but a whole level of effort is
required if you want change,”

said Yates.
“If you want extra, you have to
do extra.”
Said Davidson: “Rhodry is a
great example of someone who
has spoken out on an issue and
who is also committing their
own time and energy to doing
something about it.”
Davidson hopes this will inspire
more people to commit.
“If they do, we will
end up with a dedicated
Lyttelton community
patrol.”
Lyttelton police
Sergeant Gerard
Peoples said: “I
encourage anyone who
is keen to be involved
with the community
patrol to become a
member.”
Police were not specifically invited
as it was just a meeting to
test the waters and gather ideas
for the patrol.
“If people want the Lyttelton
community to be safer, people
need to be on board, taking
action, sacrificing their time and
energy,” said Yates.

of the Library,” she said.
However, a friends of the
library group was never created.
Andrews and Little are hoping
to form the group this year
though. The possibility is currently
being explored with the
city council.
Little said it is really important
to have a group like this as the
Akaroa community is isolated
and aging.
“We don’t have a shopping
mall or many places where we
can gather to talk,” she said.
“This is about having a hub
where people can meet face to
face.”
Andrews suggested the new
group could help support book
groups, organise educational
guest speakers, and run programs
for adults and children.
“This would help people to feel
apart of the community through
the service they provide,” she
said.
“It can be a special hub.”

Construction
of Redcliffs
school earns
major award
TE RAEKURA Redcliffs School
has been awarded the supreme
award at the New Zealand
Commercial Project 2021
Awards.
The school, constructed by
Naylor Love Canterbury and its
project partners, took out the
coveted top award along with the
construction marketing services
education category award and
the commercial project over
$15m value award.
The winning project team was
tasked with the challenge of constructing
a new school on top of
an important archaeological site.
The area was home to one of the
largest Māori settlements in the
South Island.
“This project responds to the
many challenges of the site,
including residential neighbours,
difficult ground conditions,
proximity to the shoreline and
archaeological significance,”
comments this year’s judges.
The $18.5 million campus
opened in June 2020, almost
nine years after the Christchurch
earthquakes forced the school to
relocate. It features 13 teaching
spaces, several administration
rooms, a library and a multipurpose
hall.

Harbour maintenance in good hands
Crew formed
company
named
after Last of
the Summer
Wine
• By Samantha Mythen
AT 10AM every Wednesday at
the Charteris Bay Yacht Club,
a group of retired and semiretired
people gather, including a
mariner, an engineer, a professor,
a couple of builders, a US Air
Force general, and a lawyer.
Together, they form the Last of
the Summer Wine Construction
Company.
Started in 1998 by avid seafarers
and yacht enthusiasts – Paul
Pritchett, Malcolm Pearson and
Ken Nesbit – the company helps
the community through maintenance
and construction jobs.
“Ken and I were both builders.
I was building boats with my
business in Church Bay and
Ken had just retired. We started
doing odd jobs over at Charteris
Bay,” Paul recounted of the
group’s beginnings.
“Then Malcolm joined, and we
put seats up along the shoreline
and started doing a few things
for the yacht club.”
One of their first jobs was
fixing the jetty, at what locals call
“Traffic Cops Bay.”
Paul recalled previous Bay
Harbour News editor Rob Davison
had stopped by and asked
the men what they were doing.
Ken piped up: “We’re the Last
of the Summer Wine Construction
Company.”
And in a spur of the moment,
the group was named.
The company had just three
members for about three years
but as friends and members of
the yacht club retired, they too
joined the construction crew, the
group increasing in numbers.
Alan Poore, had been living
overseas and in planning to
come back to New Zealand asked
if he could join the company.
With their cheeky nature,
the men requested Alan write a
formal application letter to join
the group and said he must pass
an IQ test.
Luckily, he passed.
The oldest member now is
nearly 92 with several in their
80s.
All of the company members
have been given relevant nicknames
of characters from the
BBC comedy the group is named
after.
Paul said he is “the short, little
grubby one, Compo.”
Ken, as “leader of the show,” is
Foggy.
Every Wednesday morning,
once the tea cups are empty and
the cheese and cracker plates
cleared, they don gumboots and

Company. (From left) – Peter Harding, Jeff Morrison, Malcolm Pearson and Pat O’Connor.

paint-covered clothes, and head
out to work on their next project.
Over the past 23 years, the
LOTSW construction company
has taken part in numerous
maintenance projects for the
yacht club, as well as for the
Head to Head Walkway, Orton
Bradley Park, and on Tug Lyttelton.
Some of their biggest projects
include assisting in the rebuild of
the club’s main jetty, rebuilding
the jetty for the boat Te Wharau,
stripping down, repairing and
repainting Te Wharau, extending
Te Wharau’s shed and building
a new trolley for the boat,
re-bracing the clubhouse interior
and re-cladding and repainting
the entire exterior of the clubhouse
in a brilliant sky blue.
The clubhouse was built in
1946, constructed by working
bees, and since then, as the hive
of the club’s activities, has undergone
many more modifications.
“I really enjoyed doing maintenance
on the boat Te Wharau,
who is about the same age as I
am,” said Philippa Drayton, the
group’s sole female member.
“Malcolm did most of the
painting and I was left with the
parts to paint where there was
almost no room to paint at all,”
she said.
Philippa joined the club in
2014.
She had been taking part in
a working bee helping out with
maintenance of the Te Wharau
shed. They did not finish the job
that day and someone told her to
come back on Wednesday.
That Wednesday, she was
introduced to the LOTSW construction
company.
“They seemed to accept me
with my skill set,” she laughed.
“Most of these guys have
an amazing range of skills – I
mean master mariner who can
climb anything and use sky
hooks, then engineers, farmers
and builders – real professional
trades,” she said.
Philippa said if she wants to
learn something new, she just
asks for help and the others are
more than happy to share their
knowledge.
The members of the LOTSW
construction company know
Rome was not built in a day, and
work is competed at a steady
pace accompanied always by
good humour.
“It does not necessarily look
like we do a lot,” said Philippa.
HARD AT WORK: Members of the LOTSW Construction
Company rebuilding a launching ramp at Charteris Bay
Yacht Club,
“But by the time you put in
eight hours times five to 10 people
a week, that’s a heck of a lot
of work.”
Peter Harding said every
Wednesday they are blessed
with good weather – the yacht
club is a haven in sunlight
breaking through the cloud-covered
city.
Jeff Morrison added that if the
weather is bad, there are always
cups of tea to demolish.
“But we do get a lot of work
done,” said Malcolm.
Malcolm, a nonagenarian at
91, is involved in most projects,
although, he’s not allowed up
ladders now.
In his youth, able-bodied seaman
Malcolm, ran across ropes
and climbed the four 180ft masts
of Pamir – the last commercial
sailing ship to round Cape Horn.
The barque was taken from
Finland as a prize during World
War 2.
It remains the only “enemy”
vessel ever to be seized by New
Zealand.
When Malcolm was very
young, his sailor father once ordered
him by saying: “You’ll never
go to sea with that drunken
lot,” however, Malcolm dedicated
his life to exploring the world via
the ocean highway.
Paul said: “We’ve always had
trouble holding Malcolm back.
He has absolutely no fear of
heights.”
A few years ago, a strong
southerly gale had blown a catamaran
over in the water and it
was stuck on a pile. The company
put a plank out to try and reach
the boat, and it was Malcolm
who walked out.
“No one else was game. The
wind was gale force,” said Paul.
Most of the members live
around the area, such as in Purau
or Church Bay, or they have
baches nearby.
“I’m the club’s next door
neighbour,” said Philippa.
“I live at the top of the driveway.”
Several members commute
from Christchurch for the weekly
catch up.
Jeff Morrison said he was
“sucked in” to the group. His
border collie Penny always joins
him at the meet-ups, constantly
nosing into the groups activities,
dropping sticks at feet in the
hope they will be thrown and a
game of fetch will commence.
Jeff was given a copy of the
Last of the Summer Wine TV
show for Christmas from the
group.
David Nesbit, Ken’s son, joined
the group after becoming a
“chauffeur” for his father. Ken
had a stroke and was told he
could not drive, so “young and
strong” David took him to the
meet-ups.
“I thought it was the least I
could do,” he said.
Retired lawyer Hec Dawson
said he joined the company “because
of the companionship.”
“It is something to do in my
retirement.”
Every week someone will turn
up at the yacht club.
“It’s a way of contributing to
the local community, picking
up some skills, it’s a good social
activity,” said Philippa.
However, as the group have
got older, they chose to leave the
strenuous work for others.
“Yes we move more slowly
than a 20-30 year old, but the 20-
30 year olds are out working and
aren’t available to do that work.
We older folk can get a heck of a
lot done over a period of time,”
said Philippa.
“We are just doing a little bit
by little bit but gradually, it all
comes together.”
The group was not allowed to
fix the clubhouse roof.
“We’re a danger to each other,
let alone ourselves,” chuckled
Paul.
Lunch is at 12.30pm. The
members head back into the
clubhouse for more tea, sandwiches,
and storytelling.
“Another Malcolm incident,”
recalls Paul.
They were moving a heavy
umbrella and were trying to lift
it up and put it into the hole.
Retired Brigadier General for
the United States Air Force Tom
Kuenning, a new member at
the time, was left holding the
heavy end of the umbrella, while
Malcolm and the others tried to
pull it up with guy ropes.
Tom, “left breaking his back
for 10 minutes,” said in exasperation
to Malcolm, “We’re in the
nuclear age, not the sailing ship
days.” He could not understand
why it was taking so long to lift
the umbrella up with the rope
system when there were more
“modern” ways to complete the
action.
Philippa comes back each week
for the stories that Malcolm and
the rest of the company share
about their life experiences.
“They say women can talk, but
these guys . . . well, once they get
going.”
“It’s good company, never
boring,” she said.

The Avon-Heathcote Estuary Ihutai Trust is a non-profit
organisation formed to protect one of New Zealand’s most
important coastal wetlands. Each week, board members
will discuss matters regarding the estuary, its rich history
and what makes it unique. This week Tanya Jenkins writes
about the annual “Mother of all clean-ups”.
ON THE weekend of
Mothers Day (May 8) the
Estuary Trust, together
with Drinkable Rivers
group, the Avon River and
Heathcote River network
groups, Cassels Tannery
and City Care, conducted
the annual “Mother of all
clean-ups” event.
Forty-three community
groups (1009 volunteers)
plus 20 schools (approx.
1,300 students) collected
carelessly discarded
rubbish from our two
rivers’ banks and along the
estuary edge.
From Southshore to
Shag Rock and along both
the Avon and Heathcote
Rivers, volunteers spent
two hours picking up
cans, straws, glass, tyres,
polystyrene pieces, plastic
wrapping and bags, bottle
tops and more, which
otherwise would have
ended up in our rivers and
estuary, and from there in
our ocean.
Once in the ocean,
many of these items become
killing devices. We
have all seen recordings or
documentaries, or heard
of sea turtles choking on
plastic bags, birds eating
polystyrene pieces (thinking
it is food), animals cut
by broken glass and birds
entangled in litter.
Did you know that a
few years ago we found a
Hector’s dolphin floating
in the estuary, which was
killed after a single plastic
blue bottle top lodged in
its blowhole, causing it to
suffocate?
A whopping 2.6 tonnes
of rubbish was collected
(519 rubbish bags), plus
over 100 large items, 146
piles of dog poo and 19 car
tyres.
McCormacks Bay
sportsground had the
dubious honour of being
the “worse site of the year”
where just over 1200 food
and drink packaging items
were collected.
But one clean up event
does not solve the issue, as
next month there will be
more litter.
What can we do to stop
this problem? Think “High
Five – I can pick up five.”
When supporting a
sports game outside, going
for a walk with the dog or
just heading out for fresh
air and enjoyment, take a
bag and pick up just five
items.
Also remember to take
rubbish home and dispose
of it properly, including
your dog’s poo.
Do not litter yourself,
and regularly check the
gutters in front of your
home for litter, as this will
end up in the stormwater
system, then in our rivers
and estuary.
Imagine if we all did
that? We would no longer
have a litter problem to
take care of. It is too
easy really.

Locals helping locals
THE SUMNER Community
Garden is an organisation that
plants, cultivates and harvests
produce.
A small group of enthusiastic
gardeners meet every Tuesday
morning at Ko Taku Reo (formerly
van Asch School for the
Deaf) where they work on a
number of different gardens;
there’s the apple orchard, the
food forest, the heritage fruit garden
and the community garden.
And as any gardener knows, it’s
not just growing produce that’s
important, it’s the camaraderie
that goes with gardening with
others that adds to the enjoyment.
The Sumner Community Garden
had inherited a tunnel house
when it moved to the van Asch
site after the earthquakes, but 10
years on it was way past its use
by date so the call went out for
funds to buy a new one.
They approached the Sumner
Ferrymead Foundation for help
because of the synergy between
the two organisations – locals
helping locals.
“We have had a diverse group
of people who have worked with
us over the years” Kathryn Newbery
of the Sumner Community
Garden said.
“While some of them are
passionate gardeners others
may have come along because
they are new to the area and
want to meet others, or they are
recovering from an illness and
find gardening is a great form of
therapy.
“During lock down last year
we had quite a few people from
overseas who were staying with
their families and were unable to
travel home, so they too enjoyed
coming down to help with the
garden. Really it’s about the
people rather than the plants,’’
she said.
The Sumner Ferrymead Foundation
was established in the
early 90s to help locals achieve
their dreams be it in education,
the arts, environment, health,
sport and recreation to name a
few so supporting the Sumner
Community Garden was a natural
fit for the Foundation.
Said Jane Paterson, a trustee
of the Foundation: “Community
gardens are a wonderful way to
bring a community together, plus
it’s great to see surplus produce
being given to the local community
either through the ‘plenty to
share’ table in Sumner Village or
the ‘ninja produce drops’ where
residents discover an unexpected
bag of, say, tomatoes on their
doorstep.
“We’re always pleased when we
can help local residents, and it’s
even better when they can pay it
forward and help others too.’’
The Sumner Community
Garden is keen to recognise
those that help them so the
Sumner Ferrymead Foundation
logo will appear on the tunnel
house.
“We’ve had the occasional bequest
too so we want to work out
the best way to recognise those
people,” Kathryn said.
“Raising money is always a
challenge, so we really want to
acknowledge those that help us.”
And raising funds is not the
only challenge the community
garden faces; they want to future
proof the garden by recruiting
more locals who are prepared to
regularly join them on Tuesday
mornings.
No prior gardening knowledge
or experience is required, just
a keen interest to learn and get
involved.
“We love sharing this little
beautiful oasis in the heart of
Sumner and welcome everyone
of all ages and abilities; although
if you were strong enough to
dig and lift, so much the better,”
Suzie Kaschula, who has been
gardening at the community
garden for 10 years said.

FOOD & WINE
Latest Canterbury news at starnews.co.nz
Versatile rice can be used many ways
Rice is very much a
staple food, these
recipes are simple yet
tasty and can be served
as pre-dinner nibbles
or as part of a meal.
Arborio rice could be
substituted for the
sticky rice. In spite of
its alternative name of
‘‘glutinous rice’’, sticky
rice does not contain
the form of gluten
dangerous to those
with gluten intolerance
Sticky coconut rice with
fresh mango
Serves 4
Ingredients
2 cups rice, (glutinous)
2 cups coconut cream, plus extra
for garnish
½ cup sugar
1 tsp Salt
2 pandan leaves, (optional)
2 mangoes, ripe, sliced
1 garnish sesame seeds
Directions
Rinse the rice well. Place in a
bowl and cover with water up to
6cm above the rice. Leave to soak
overnight.
Drain the rice and place in a
muslin-lined steamer (or a conical
Thai rice steamer).
Cover with a lid, then allow the
rice to steam over boiling water
for 30min until it is translucent,
softened and chewy. While the
rice is steaming, tip the coconut
cream into a separate saucepan
and stir in the sugar, salt and
pandanus leaves.
Simmer for about 10min over
a very gentle heat. Remove from
the heat, allowing the leaves to
flavour the sauce.
When the rice is cooked,
remove the leaves from the sauce
and pour most of it over the rice,
keeping a little for drizzling over
the completed dish.
When ready to serve, spoon
the rice onto individual plates,
arrange mango slices or cubes
beside it and garnish with a little
extra sauce and sesame seeds.
Sticky rice cakes with
cheese and herbs
Ingredients
Cakes:
1 cup sticky rice
1/½ cups cold water
2 each: shallots, garlic cloves,
diced
1 tbsp olive oil
¾ cup grated tasty cheese
½ cup finely grated parmesan
cheese
¼ cup chopped mixed
herbs such as thyme, basil,
oregano
Flaky sea salt and freshly
ground black pepper
2 large egg whites
Coating:
½ cup breadcrumbs
¼ cup finely grated parmesan
cheese
Rice and
mangoes
are a perfect
combination,
add a
coconut
sauce for
extra taste.
Directions
Put rice in a saucepan with
water. Bring to boil, cover
and simmer for about 15min
until rice is cooked and water
absorbed. Drain and cool.
Preheat oven to 220 deg C.
Lightly oil an oven tray.
Saute shallots and garlic in oil,
until softened.
Stir, together with cheeses,
herbs and seasonings into rice
mixture.
Whip egg whites until stiff
peaks form and fold in.
Form into large walnut-sized
balls. Coat in combined crumbs
and cheese, place on tray and
cook for about 20min until golden.
Stand for 5min before
transferring to a serving platter.
Great with chutney. Serve warm
or at room temperature.
Makes 20
Feijoa and lime muffins
Serves 10
Ingredients
3 limes
60gm butter, (melted)
2 large eggs
200gm plain flour
2½ tsp baking powder
100gm sugar
1 cup feijoa, peeled and
diced(about 6-8)
Directions
Preheat the oven to 180 deg C.
Place paper cup liners in a muffin
pan.
Using a zester, take strips of
zest from one of the limes and
reserve for the top of the muffins.
Finely grate the zest of the other
two and squeeze the juice from all
three. Tip this into a large bowl
with the melted butter and eggs.
Whisk together until light and
fluffy. Sieve the flour with the
baking powder and fold gently
into the mixture with the sugar.
Finally, fold in the feijoas and
fill the muffin cups three-quarters
full.
Sprinkle the tops with a
little extra sugar and the reserved
zest.
Bake for 20-25min until
golden and firm to the touch
when patted.
Now is the time for rieslings to shine
• By Mark Henderson
LIKE A LOT of people involved
in the wine industry, I love
riesling, and have also sometimes
pondered whether it might be
riesling’s moment to shine in the
sun. It never does, as the broader
public just don’t seem to ‘‘get’’
riesling.
Visiting one of the major
supermarkets recently reinforced
this thinking.
There was but the tiniest wedge
devoted to riesling – they clearly
don’t feel they have demand, so
don’t stock them. That may make
some of the following wines
harder to find, but they are well
worth the hunt.
2019 Pegasus Bay Bel
Canto dry riesling
Price: $38
Rating: Very good to excellent
A whiff of struck match,
honey, apple skin, lemon drops.
At the drier end of the riesling
spectrum, fresh and bright, with
fruit sweetness underpinning it
all.
Quite a weighty palate, time
exposing a little apricot kernel
and citrus.
Easy drinking. Tried later and
this has fattened, the flavours
hanging forever on the finish.
May have been a little closed; I
may be underscoring this.
www.pegasusbay.com
2018 Pegasus Bay
riesling
Price: $30
Rating: Excellent
Subtle at first, yet attractively
floral with citrus, spice and sweet
fruit lift.
Powerful in the mouth, a
textural weight and richness, yet
retaining freshness and vibrancy
with the acidity deftly cutting
through the honeyed richness.
The flavours hang in the mouth
on the long finish. Already
delicious, but history tells us this
will amply reward cellar time.
www.pegasusbay.com
2019 Main Divide North
Canterbury riesling
Price: $20.99
Rating: Outstanding
A deeper, almost brooding
character with smoke, herbs,
apple and a lifted fragrance
building with air.
Full of flavour yet with a
lightness and delicacy in the
mouth.
Honey and summer fruits with
a little orange/mandarin zest, the
acidity neatly judged to keep this
fresh and lively. Super balance
and a gorgeous finish.
Superb stuff and great value
here.
www.maindivide.com
2018 Pegasus Bay Aria
Late Harvest riesling
Price: $42
Rating: Excellent
Musk and comb honey, spices,
red apple, white flowers.
Rich and weighty, almost oily
in its density, the musk and honey
driving the palate, adding spiced
apple, with the acidity sweeping
in to give this lift.
A hint of almond gives a
bittersweet note as a foil to the
sweetness.
Intense, powerful and a dessert
in itself, or perhaps pair this with
fresh fruit?
www.pegasusbay.com
2020 Felton Road
Bannockburn riesling
Price: $41
Rating: Outstanding
Powerfully floral and fragrant
with honey, lavender; a warm
baguette note with time. While
there is sweetness here, the racy
acidity neatly balances that
making it appear drier than it is.
This grows in the glass,
displaying its inherent power and
texture, completely filling the
mouth and drawing you back for
more.
The flavours hang on the lipsmacking
close. Delicious.
www.feltonroad.com
2018 Riverby Estate
Sali’s Block Single
Vineyard Marlborough
riesling
Price: $22
Rating: Very good
Floral and fragrant, herb, apple,
a spicy note.
The lighter bodied palate
continues the theme on the nose
and while clean and fresh it
initially feels somewhat reticent.
Aeration allows this to come out
of its shell, with fruit sweetness
growing as it builds in flavour
intensity.
Very easy drinking.

Subaru that won’t get your goat
THE GOOAT – greatest Outback
of all time is Subaru’s slogan
for its latest generation station
wagon.
It’s a kind of corny catchphrase
but there’s no disputing the claim,
the new Outback is surely worthy
of high praise. I see it as competing
squarely with European cars
of similar concept.
The reason for my statement
simply comes down to the quality
of build in the new Outback, it is
full of appointments, the controls
are extensive and the layout
borders on what you would get in
any luxury car.
Yet the Outback hasn’t lost sight
of its purpose, which is the reason
why it is the vehicle of choice for
recreational enthusiasts who see
the model as reliable transport in
and out of low grip sites.
And that is something Subaru
has done well with every iteration
of the Outback, it is a wagon that
could easily double as any sport
utility vehicle, yet it looks and
functions like a station wagon
should. Anyone who knows me
will tell you I like station wagons
and the cavernous load section is
full of purpose.
The Outback will also carry
five occupants in comfort on any
surface, sealed, unsealed or as
Subaru hints – on any goat track.
A few years ago Subaru New
Zealand adopted the policy of
selling all new vehicles here
complete with its symmetrical
four-wheel-drive system. It’s
worked well for the company, and
any buyer who has purchased a
new Subaru will have reaped the
benefits.
For one it is a complete safety
system, providing grip even when
you aren’t aware of it, plus there
is the other benefit of travelling
cross-country or off-road at will,
and that’s where the Outback
comes in, it lives up to its name
with 213mm of ground clearance
and suspension travel that deals
well to uneven surfaces.
On that score, and because the
evaluation car had seen some
loose surface travel, I drove
along the shingle tracks that run
parallel to the Waimakariri River
and experienced a soft, controlled
ride. You can certainly feel the
suspension absorbing the uneven
surfaces, and on a slippery, gentle
incline the driveline can be felt
working to keep wheelspin at bay.
Most of all, the Outback’s
ability to cocoon the occupants
with a sublime ride is pretty
much a miracle and is testament
to those who have developed the
spring and damper rates. I know
Subaru’s association with German
USER-FRIENDLY: Large screen and icons make using the
Outback’s display console easy.
SUBARU OUTBACK: Capable when tackling the high country goat tracks.
shock absorber company Bilstein
has paid dividends over the years,
today’s Outback capitalises on
that development.
There is little trade-off when
cruising the highway. The soft
ride could suggest on-road handling
would be jeopardised, that’s
not the case, even at 1675mm tall
the Outback doesn’t lean awkwardly
and gravitational movement
is well arrested.
Much of the Outback’s overall
handling prowess must be put
down to the quality of the tyres.
The Bridgestone Alenza’s (225/60
x 18in) are a new compound to
me and, although they can’t be
described as deep-treaded as
you would expect for an off-road
vehicle, they have a pattern that
copes well on all surfaces, they
are quiet and provide much information
to the steering wheel.
The loading in a corner is
well-weighted, the entire vehicle
is fully directional. I like vehicles
that give you confidence through
the steering and suspension, the
Outback’s front-strut/rear-double
wishbone system is fully informative,
the messages the driver
receives are very much confidence-boosting.
There’s also a bit of a surprise
under the bonnet, Subaru has introduced
an almost entirely new
engine. Well the boxer design is
the same as before and it’s much
the same capacity – a 2.5-litre. It’s
a four-cylinder unit I’ve long had
an affinity for.
Developing 138kW and
245Nm, the horizontally-opposed
unit is punchy and torquey, delivering
with a distinctive sound
• Price – Subaru Outback
Touring, $57,490
• Dimensions – Length,
4870mm; width, 1875mm;
height, 1675mm
• Configuration – Fourcylinder
(boxer), fourwheel-drive,
2498cc,
138kW, 245Nm,
continuously variable
automatic
• Performance –
0-100km/h, 9sec
• Fuel usage – 7.3l/100km
that lets you know there is something
special sitting up front.
Drive is directed through a
continuously variable transmission,
one which Subaru has
constantly developed to the
point where it feels much like a
traditional automatic. However,
it has the advantage of a direct
transfer of power, there is nothing
lost through the transmission.
Consequently, the Outback feels
sprightly, there’s no obvious feel
of weight within the car, even
though it comes in at 1661kg.
Acceleration is strong, the Outback
will reach 100km/h from a
standstill in 9sec, and it will lunge
through a highway overtake (80-
120km/h) in 6sec.
On the subject of figures, Subaru
must be well satisfied with the
fuel usage figures in the newcomer.
It is listed with a 7.3l/100km
combined cycle average. That’s
achievable, when I took the evaluation
car back to the dealership
the internal readout was showing
9l/100km, that aided by a thrifty
4.7l/100km instantaneous readout
at 100km/h (engine speed
1500rpm).
The new Outback is available
in three variants, all with the
same driveline. The series starts
at $49,990, the evaluation car
was the range-topping Touring
at $57,490; in-between there is a
$54,990 X model.
The Touring wants for nothing,
it is a plush, luxury vehicle with
all the trimmings for comfort and
convenience. Full leather trim,
paddle-shifters, clever Eyesight
safety system, SI drive intelligent
drive modes, Harman Kardon
audio and heated and electrically
adjustable seats are all fitted.
I particularly like the large
central console display. It’s about
as big as any I’ve seen previously
in any car and it makes reading
and touching the icons so very
easy. The system displays are
deep and comprehensive, all
of these factors contributing to
why I rate the Outback as a full
luxury car market contender, yet
it offers so much more in terms
of ability.
As much as I enjoyed the
Outback, the Touring model
would be a little out of my reach.
However, my wife has been easily
convinced that the XV is the
Subaru for us as we look towards
retirement.
Subaru’s philosophy and
direction is proving to be a
winning combination, from
where I sit I can say without any
hesitation that interest is growing
strongly, drawing people to the
brand, and its fine vehicles like
the Outback and its stablemates
that are doing that.
