$90,000 raised for Renee’s<br />

life-changing operation<br />

• By Tina Grumball<br />

RĀPAKI RESIDENT Renee<br />

Veal cried “tears of joy” when<br />

she found out the $90,000 for her<br />

life-changing surgery had been<br />

raised.<br />

By the time they had reached<br />

their goal, thousands of people<br />

had donated, uncle Nuk Korako<br />

said.<br />

“What a wonderful Christmas<br />

present this is. [We’re] looking<br />

forward to getting that operation<br />

started hopefully early next year<br />

because she’s been waiting so<br />

long,” he said.<br />

Sports clubs add voice to Naval Point<br />

A NEWLY-FORMED group and<br />

board will add its voice to the<br />

redevelopment of Naval Point in<br />

Lyttelton.<br />

The board, made up of eight<br />

members (two are representatives of<br />

Te Hapū o Ngāti Wheke), represents<br />

Whakaraupo Recreation Inc.<br />

WRI has been set up to support its<br />

clubs and members with sea-based<br />

aquatic and community-based sport,<br />

recreation, safety and education at<br />

Naval Point.<br />

“Naval Point has long been a<br />

popular recreation and sport location<br />

in Ōtautahi and there’s a unique<br />

opportunity for sports clubs to run<br />

efficiently together,’’ said board member<br />

Ben Keys.<br />

“Currently, WRI has members<br />

across 18 different sports clubs . . .<br />

We believe, with the redevelopment<br />

of Naval Point, there’s a unique<br />

opportunity for sports clubs – water<br />

and land-based – to run efficiently<br />

together and create a truly unique<br />

sports facility.”<br />

The city council is welcoming the<br />

treasures from the past<br />

newly formed group.<br />

Said city council head of parks<br />

Andrew Rutledge: “It’s really encouraging<br />

to see people wanting to be part<br />

of the Naval Point redevelopment.<br />

“This comes at an important point<br />

in the redevelopment, with the proposal<br />

of a multi-use facility concept<br />

to anchor the area. We’re partnering<br />

with Te Hapū o Ngāti Wheke and<br />

we’re very keen to hear from all<br />

groups who want to collaborate with<br />

us on this exciting redevelopment,”<br />

he said.<br />

SUCCESSFULLY managing<br />

and capitalising on the Sail GP<br />

event being hosted on Lyttelton<br />

<strong>Harbour</strong> in March will be<br />

one of the biggest challenges<br />

for the area, new Te Pātaka o<br />

Rākaihautū Banks Peninsula<br />

Community Board chair Reuben<br />

Davidson said.<br />

“It is a worldclass<br />

event and<br />

the eyes of the<br />

world will be on<br />

us. We need to<br />

ensure it leaves<br />

a positive legacy<br />

but also that<br />

locals can capitalise<br />

on it.”<br />

He is not sure<br />

exactly what the economic benefit<br />

to Lyttelton will be from the<br />

event because the focus is on the<br />

Christchurch region, but he says<br />

the benefits will be significant.<br />

“There will be benefits from<br />

the visitors to Lyttelton but also<br />

the events will be streamed and<br />

broadcast to a global audience,<br />

so the benefits to Lyttelton from<br />

that will be enormous”.<br />

An estimated 5000 people will<br />

be visiting the port on each of<br />

the two event days, and that will<br />

present some big issues for local<br />

residents and businesses.<br />

The traffic management<br />

plan will see access to the port<br />

seriously restricted during the<br />

afternoons. The biggest benefits<br />

he says will be in encouraging<br />

people to stay after the sailing is<br />

over for the day.<br />

This will be a challenge, Davidson<br />

said.<br />

Vehicle access via the Sumner<br />

Rd and from Governors <strong>Bay</strong> will<br />

be closed except for Lyttelton<br />

residents with a permit, with<br />

the majority of visitors being<br />

transported by bus in and out via<br />

the tunnel from Christchurch.<br />

“I think the real challenge for<br />

us, with an event of this scale, is<br />

trying to get the balance right<br />

between efficiently moving<br />

Latest Canterbury news at starnews.co.nz<br />

people to and from the event, but<br />

also getting people to stay in port<br />

and spend their money locally,”<br />

Davidson said.<br />

“The challenge is keeping<br />

people in the town into the<br />

evening after the events are over,”<br />

he said.<br />

“One of the risks is that people<br />

who come in by bus are likely<br />

to take the bus back rather than<br />

staying afterwards.”<br />

Davidson says this presents an<br />

opportunity for local businesses<br />

to organise events to keep people<br />

in the town, like concerts or<br />

dinners or events.<br />

“We have plenty of great venues<br />

and, once the sailing is over<br />

for the day, there will be other<br />

options for getting back into<br />

town including taxis or public<br />

transport,” he said.<br />

He suggests local businesses<br />

put on their own transport to get<br />

their customers home.<br />

“Part of the ticket price for the<br />

event might be the cost of getting<br />

people back to Christchurch<br />

afterwards” he said.<br />

“It would mean that people<br />

could have an awesome day and<br />

night without worrying about<br />

how they are going to get home<br />

LEGACY: Lyttelton <strong>Harbour</strong> will host March’s Sail GP regatta.<br />

Davidson is also predicting<br />

large numbers of residents will<br />

capitalise on Sail GP by leaving<br />

and offering their home as B&Bs<br />

for the duration. This is already<br />

happening, he said.<br />

Most of the visitors will be<br />

staying in Christchurch so “anyone<br />

who wants to put their place<br />

on AirBNB is probably going to<br />

do very well across the period of<br />

the event”.<br />

At the same time he says a<br />

Vintage market continues to thrive<br />

• By Natalie Pham<br />

HELEN MILBURN has been<br />

a well-known antique dealer in<br />

Christchurch for many decades.<br />

Now, her vintage market with<br />

multiple stalls has become a beacon<br />

to people who are looking<br />

for the unexpected.<br />

The 81-year-old never imagined<br />

Shabby Chic Market Day<br />

would turn into a monthly event<br />

when she first started it at her<br />

home in Woolston.<br />

There were only seven stallholders<br />

at the first event, but<br />

later increased to 12 on the next<br />

market day.<br />

“After the earthquakes, because<br />

there wasn’t much on, [the<br />

event] just grew,” she said.<br />

Ever since the market began,<br />

she has only cancelled once due<br />

to bad weather.<br />

While some stallholders have<br />

left for other events, many have<br />

remained.<br />

“Some of them who were here<br />

from the second market still stay<br />

with us all the time. All these<br />

years. It’s amazing,” Helen said.<br />

About 100 visitors were queuing<br />

up at Rochester Villa to explore<br />

vintage treats and treasures<br />

from more than 40 stallholders<br />

last Sunday.<br />

Some of them used to be<br />

Helen’s regular customers at her<br />

former antique shop Forget Me<br />

Not.<br />

“I still remember their faces<br />

and names,” Helen said.<br />

She opened the store in Linwood<br />

Ave in 1986, offering a<br />

range of cottage-like products.<br />

While the store was a success<br />

at the time, Helen did not make a<br />

lot of profit.<br />

“A lot of young people didn’t<br />

have much money to buy things.<br />

So I just bought things and<br />

wouldn’t look for the highest<br />

dollar.”<br />

Over the years, the store<br />

moved on to Victoria St, Oxford<br />

Tce, Manchester St and then<br />

ended up in Woolston. This was<br />

when Helen decided to close it.<br />

“Within a year finishing the<br />

shop, the market started,” she<br />

said.<br />

Helen and her late husband<br />

Peter bought the villa, which was<br />

built in 1874, from the Graham<br />

family at an auction in 1992.<br />

It then became a home of<br />

many tenants for years, with one<br />

rented the villa for about seven<br />

years.<br />

When the last tenant moved<br />

PASSION:<br />

Helen<br />

Milburn, now<br />

81, helps<br />

organise<br />

the monthly<br />

Shabby Chic<br />

Market Day.<br />

out, Helen decided to use the<br />

space to continue her long-term<br />

career in curating antiques.<br />

But she then went with the<br />

idea of having a market day,<br />

which was suggested by a “lovely<br />

lady”.<br />

“It was so successful, we had<br />

another one,” Helen said.<br />

The second event was where<br />

she met baker Shane Tatom of<br />

the Nikau Bakehouse, who told<br />

her to hold the market on the<br />

first Sunday of the month from<br />

September to May.<br />

Said Helen: “In the early days,<br />

especially after the quakes, I<br />

went around Sumner, Redcliffs,<br />

Linwood to put posters on shop<br />

windows. And people were so<br />

keen to help.”<br />

Her one-man band has now<br />

expanded to a small group of<br />

people, including her eldest<br />

daughter Sarah Milburn and a<br />

committee of six people.<br />

Nowadays, Sarah has taken<br />

over the market. Her main<br />

tasks include organising the<br />

stalls, managing the events, and<br />

posting photos of the market on<br />

Facebook.<br />

Helen is hoping to continue<br />

improving the market and keep<br />

it going.<br />

“I’m pretty good for my age. So<br />

I suppose we’ll just keep going<br />

maybe until I die. Maybe it’ll<br />

carry on, I don’t know. We’re just<br />

keeping the cottage alive.”<br />

‘Pinkies’ class of ‘57 celebrates 65<br />

• By Tina Grumball<br />

SIXTY-FIVE years ago, these 12<br />

women entered nursing training<br />

at Christchurch Public Hospital<br />

in bright pink uniforms.<br />

They were nicknamed<br />

“pinkies” and were only trusted<br />

to take patients to chapel on<br />

Sundays.<br />

Last week, they entered The<br />

George Hotel to celebrate their<br />

lifelong friendship, making jokes<br />

and cheering their water glasses<br />

with promises of cocktails to<br />

come.<br />

Most of the 47 girls who<br />

entered the hospital on January<br />

2, 1957, have kept in touch<br />

throughout the years and met up<br />

a couple of times.<br />

“This one is low-key because<br />

we’re all getting older, all into our<br />

80s,” one of the “pinkies,” Lois<br />

Eagle, said.<br />

Some could not make it to<br />

the reunion as they weren’t well<br />

enough to travel or lived in the<br />

North Island.<br />

For those in Christchurch,<br />

Lois said they met up every two<br />

months if they could and had<br />

remained good friends.<br />

When speaking with <strong>Bay</strong><br />

<strong>Harbour</strong> News, Lois recalled her<br />

decision to go into nursing after<br />

she left Christchurch Girls’ High<br />

School at 16.<br />

“I went to the bank because<br />

you couldn’t begin nursing until<br />

Your Local MP for Banks Peninsula<br />

Tracey<br />

McLellan<br />

It’s a great time of year in Christchurch<br />

- the days are warm and long, there are<br />

events to suit every taste, and a fun,<br />

relaxed atmosphere prevails.<br />

The preparation for SailGP, the premier<br />

yacht racing event coming to Lyttelton<br />

<strong>Harbour</strong> in 2023, has plenty of wind in<br />

its sails. A recent community meeting<br />

highlighted the opportunities the event<br />

presents to harbour communities and<br />

the enthusiasm of those who attended<br />

was evident.<br />

Mid October found me in Akaroa and<br />

Duvauchelle for a series of visits. It was great<br />

to catch up with Deb and the team from<br />

Duvauchelle School, visit the new pre-school<br />

next door and talk to locals at an Akaroa<br />

Community Clinic. It was a good reminder<br />

of how receptive and informed Banks<br />

Peninsula communities are.<br />

As it does so often, Banks Peninsula<br />

turned on the sun for the Governors <strong>Bay</strong><br />

Fete on 16 October. It was a fun day and<br />

a great fundraiser for the community. I<br />

enjoyed the shade of the Labour Gazebo<br />

while talking with fete-goers, who were<br />

eager to have a chat and ask questions.<br />

you were 18 and I thought I’d like<br />

to do that job,” she said.<br />

“So I went to the bank and I<br />

told the bank manager I’m only<br />

staying for two years and he<br />

said ‘no, you won’t because you<br />

won’t get so much pay’ and that’s<br />

exactly right.”<br />

She received eight pound a<br />

week at the bank, but only four<br />

pound and nine pence while<br />

training.<br />

But the pay did not deter Lois,<br />

as she had made up her mind.<br />

Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern came<br />

to town again a couple of weeks back<br />

and it was fantastic to join her as she<br />

checked out some of city’s best and<br />

brightest workplaces. Christchurch is<br />

increasingly becoming the HQ for both<br />

small and large companies and a hub<br />

for entrepreneurs.<br />

A regular event that I find really<br />

valuable is a catch up with the<br />

many church representatives spread<br />

throughout the electorate. They share<br />

my deep passion and concern for the<br />

community and the welfare of all those<br />

who live within. It is always interesting<br />

to hear their thoughts and suggestions<br />

for our collective challenges.<br />

Congratulations to the Sumner Lifeboat<br />

crews who took out last week’s awards<br />

and also to the Governors <strong>Bay</strong> Jetty<br />

Restoration Trust for their Art Auction<br />

- ‘Distinctly Peninsula’ – which featured<br />

talented local artists. The Trust is doing<br />

great work and I was pleased to hear that<br />

the first piles of the new jetty have been<br />

installed. I’m watching with interest as<br />

the jetty is restored to its former glory.<br />

Authorised by Tracey McLellan 642 Ferry Road and paid for by the Parliamentary Service<br />

The girls who entered the<br />

programme were “nervous, naive<br />

and excited”, Lois recalled.<br />

“We wore bright pink dresses<br />

under crisp white aprons,<br />

wrestled with fiddly studs on our<br />

starched collars, cuffs and hats,”<br />

she said.<br />

For three months, the girls did<br />

preliminary training, staying<br />

in the classroom except to take<br />

patients to chapel on Sundays.<br />

“Everybody would know if<br />

you’re in pink, you don’t know<br />

much, don’t trust them,” Lois<br />

said with a chuckle.<br />

If they passed their exam at<br />

the end of the three months, they<br />

moved to a grey uniform of the<br />

same design and began their onthe-job<br />

training.<br />

“We moved around while we<br />

were training, we would go to<br />

one ward for three months and<br />

then you’d get moved on.”<br />

She said the sisters on the<br />

wards seemed like “dragons”<br />

back then.<br />

years since nursing training<br />

Back then, bandages had to be<br />

washed and rolled back up again,<br />

she recalled.<br />

They only had one day off a<br />

week and were required to be in<br />

by 10pm during their first year<br />

and 11.15pm during the rest of<br />

the time.<br />

Though they worked long<br />

hours, Lois said they loved it.<br />

“We did it because we loved<br />

the people, we loved the thought<br />

of caring for people. I think<br />

that’s what it came back to, caring<br />

for people and seeing them<br />

get better, nursing them for a lot<br />

longer,” she said.<br />

“Today, the average days in<br />

hospital is very short, isn’t it?<br />

Because in those days they were<br />

quite long and we got to know<br />

the patients very well.”<br />

Nursing is completely different<br />

today than it was when they were<br />

training: it is more technical.<br />

The wards were big and long<br />

rooms, and sometimes, when<br />

overstretched, people would be<br />

in the centre and in corridors.<br />

“You had a heart attack in<br />

those days, you weren’t even<br />

allowed to clean your teeth.<br />

You had to sit for several weeks,<br />

whereas today they have a stent<br />

put in and they’re on their way<br />

the next day,” Lois said.<br />

They worried about whether<br />

the wheels on the bed were<br />

TRAINING: Lois Eagle said the trainee nurses found their<br />

lifelong friendship while studying. Above right – the<br />

pamphlet they were given about nurse training.<br />

straight or the sheets and blankets<br />

had the corners mitred. The<br />

girls were taught how to clean<br />

and clean again, how to shake<br />

glass thermometers and read the<br />

mercury, and change the sheets<br />

and rubber mackintoshes.<br />

Lois noted respect was something<br />

they were steeped in.<br />

Whenever a matron or a<br />

surgeon came in the room, they<br />

were required to quickly roll<br />

their sleeves down, put their<br />

cuffs on, put their hands behind<br />

their backs and ask them what<br />

they wanted.<br />

While they completed their<br />

three-years-and-three-months<br />

training, the girls stayed near the<br />

hospital.<br />

“I think because we lived in<br />

. . . we became very good<br />

friends,” Lois recalled.<br />

“We used to laugh together<br />

and we used to cry together too,<br />

I can tell you that . . . but we<br />

worked very hard.”<br />

Lois said not all of them made<br />

it through the training but most<br />

did, including herself.<br />

“Some of them dropped out to<br />

be married,” she said, noting you<br />

had to be single to train.<br />

“In those days you know . . .<br />

you didn’t work when you were<br />

married, you stayed home. You<br />

were a home-maker,” Lois said.<br />

“Some of them decided it<br />

wasn’t for them, some of them<br />

just didn’t finish their exams but<br />

we still remain friends, that first<br />

class.”<br />

Once they graduated in 1960,<br />

the new nurses were given a<br />

new blue uniform of the same<br />

pattern, as well as the five-star<br />

medal of a Christchurch Public<br />

Hospital staff nurse.<br />

Lois worked for six months<br />

‘We used to laugh together<br />

and we used to cry together<br />

too, I can tell you that . . .<br />

but we worked very hard’<br />

– Lois Eagle<br />

nursing before leaving and<br />

getting married. In 1969, she<br />

became a driving instructor and<br />

continued that for 48 years at the<br />

Cashmere Driving School.<br />

Some of the 47 continued on to<br />

become great nurses, Lois said.<br />

About 22 of them attended<br />

their “very big” 60th reunion at<br />

Newbury Lodge. Some husbands<br />

also attended.<br />

For the 65th, they were intending<br />

to meet in January, but Covid<br />

meant they had to delay it until<br />

<strong>November</strong>.<br />

“We decided that we would go<br />

and meet at The George,” Lois<br />

said.<br />

“Quite expensive but quite nice<br />

and we will be there as a special<br />

thing for 65 years since we started<br />

together.”<br />

Lois surprised the rest of the<br />

group by recreating the original<br />

uniform they wore in 1957 as<br />

“pinkies”.<br />

She still had her blue dress<br />

from when she graduated and so<br />

bought some pink material from<br />

Spotlight and got her dressmaker<br />

friend to make it. The apron is<br />

originally hers.<br />

Bid to eradicate possums<br />

on Banks Peninsula<br />

Wednesday <strong>November</strong> 9 <strong>2022</strong> <strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> News<br />

A MAJOR possum control<br />

programme is under way over<br />

large areas of Banks Peninsula<br />

where it’s estimated there<br />

could be between 120,000 and<br />

150,000 of the pests.<br />

The initial three-year programme<br />

is being managed and<br />

delivered by Pest Free Banks<br />

Peninsula with a mix of central,<br />

regional and local government<br />

funding, and supports<br />

the Government’s Predator<br />

Free 2050 initiative.<br />

While most of the work is<br />

on private land there are also<br />

areas of public land, including<br />

city council reserves where<br />

control work will be taking<br />

place.<br />

Said Banks Peninsula/Port<br />

Hills regional parks head<br />

ranger Paul Devlin: “We have<br />

engaged with PFBP to grant<br />

the necessary permissions and<br />

involved our waterways team<br />

and approval from the health<br />

protection officer/HSNO officer<br />

from Te Whatu Ora Health<br />

New Zealand to ensure we are<br />

fully compliant. It will include<br />

community notification and<br />

signage,”<br />

A mixture of methods are<br />

being used with bait stations<br />

the main tool in conjunction<br />

with traps. The traps are<br />

employed to capture possums<br />

that might shy away from<br />

bait stations. Conservation<br />

dogs will be used to find any<br />

stragglers.<br />

Bait stations will be placed<br />

away from non-target species<br />

like pets and stock and used<br />

in accordance with best<br />

practice to ensure the health<br />

and safety of the community,<br />

said PFBP senior team leader<br />

Tim Sjoberg.<br />

The damage that possums<br />

cause to biodiversity and to<br />

productive farmland is immense,<br />

he said.<br />

“This is the first big push<br />

aimed at removing possums<br />

completely from Banks Peninsula<br />

so we’re very excited. We’re<br />

covering 23,000ha between<br />

now and 2025 so there’s a<br />

large amount of people power<br />

involved. At the moment we<br />

have nine people employed<br />

in the field<br />

and we’re looking to expand<br />

that to 13.<br />

“This initiative is by and for<br />

the community so our staff are<br />

largely local. The partnerships<br />

we have with various organisations<br />

and groups also help<br />

bring in valuable expertise to<br />

guide us towards that elimination<br />

Latest Canterbury news at starnews.co.nz<br />

Treasures from the Past:<br />

Islay Cottage, Lyttelton<br />

WAS ISLAY Cottage Lyttelton’s<br />

first spec build?<br />

This early hand-coloured photograph<br />

from the museum collection<br />

looks towards Ticehurst<br />

Rd and the base of the Bridle<br />

Path with the old Lyttelton band<br />

rotunda clearly visible in the<br />

foreground. This structure was<br />

removed, along with the houses<br />

directly behind it, during the<br />

construction of the road tunnel<br />

in the early 1960s.<br />

At the centre-left of the image<br />

is a small cottage with three<br />

dormer windows, an important<br />

surviving example of early<br />

colonial architecture and a significant<br />

landmark at the start of<br />

the climb to the Bridle Path.<br />

Islay Cottage, as it became<br />

known, was built on land allocated<br />

to the Reverend Dudley,<br />

chaplain on the Cressy; one of<br />

the first four Canterbury Association<br />

ships to arrive in Ōhinehou<br />

Lyttelton in December 1850 as<br />

part of the organised emigration<br />

of settlers to establish a Church<br />

of England colony in Canterbury.<br />

In early 1851, Reverend Dudley<br />

sold a quarter acre of this land to<br />

Thomas Kent, a carpenter who<br />

had also arrived on the Cressy<br />

with his family. Kent and his<br />

Islay Cottage can be seen to the centre-left.<br />

Te Ūaka The Lyttelton Museum ref 14986.28<br />

www.teuaka.org.nz/online-collection/1136192<br />

son Joseph built a gabled cottage<br />

with three dormer windows and<br />

straight run verandah with walls<br />

of pit sawn timber (possibly<br />

brought from England) and<br />

rammed earth (cob) on stone<br />

foundations.<br />

Clearly a ‘spec’ build, Kent<br />

sold the new building to George<br />

Lockhart and Augustus White<br />

for £80 – a tidy profit on the £17<br />

it had cost him to purchase the<br />

land from the Reverend Dudley.<br />

In 1857 the cottage again<br />

changed hands, bought by Dr<br />

John Seager Gundry, who had<br />

been Surgeon-Superintendent on<br />

another Canterbury Association<br />

ship, the Steadfast. In his diaries,<br />

Gundry refers to the four-anda-half<br />

hour walk over the Bridle<br />

Path to Christchurch – as he<br />

lived in Christchurch, he may<br />

well have purchased the cottage<br />

for a base during his frequent<br />

trips to and from Lyttelton.<br />

Islay Cottage today.<br />

www.heritage.org.nz/thelist/details/3351<br />

In 1870, Gundry sold the cottage<br />

to Captain Hugh McLellan,<br />

a master mariner who was Lyttelton’s<br />

piermaster, wharfmaster<br />

and finally harbourmaster in<br />

1877. McLellan was responsible<br />

for naming the cottage after his<br />

original home on the island of<br />

Islay in Argyllshire, Scotland. He<br />

married Sarah Plaisted, a young<br />

immigrant who had been orphaned<br />

by the death of her father<br />

shortly after her arrival onboard<br />

the Isabella Hercus in 1851.<br />

Islay Cottage was an ideal vantage<br />

point for a man responsible<br />

for the movement of shipping in<br />

Whakaraupō Lyttelton <strong>Harbour</strong>.<br />

However, due to a reportedly<br />

fiery ‘Scottish’ personality, Captain<br />

McLellan was a somewhat<br />

NEWS 11<br />

contentious figure in the community<br />

and resigned as harbourmaster<br />

in 1885, to be succeeded<br />

by Captain J W Clark.<br />

The cottage, however, continued<br />

to be home for his large<br />

family – 10 children were raised<br />

within the small footprint of<br />

the building. With its steep<br />

staircase most resembling a<br />

ladder, leading to two small attic<br />

bedrooms, the children must<br />

have been lined up like sardines<br />

for sleeping!<br />

The cottage remained in the<br />

hands of McLellan descendants<br />

until 2004; first Edna (daughter<br />

of Captain McLellan) and her<br />

husband Walter Cattle, followed<br />

by their niece Flora Sneddon.<br />

In 1978 it was sold to Gloria<br />

Mitchell, and again in 2004 to<br />

a descendant of the Gundry<br />

family, who lovingly restored it.<br />

Having changed hands a<br />

number of times since then,<br />

this largely unaltered example<br />

of mid-19th century domestic<br />

European architecture was<br />

recognised by Heritage New<br />

Zealand with category two<br />

historic place status in December<br />

1990. Beautifully repaired and<br />

refitted post-earthquakes, it is<br />

presented by the current owners<br />

as boutique accommodation.<br />

Making Dyers Pass<br />

Road safer<br />

We’re making good progress on safety<br />

improvement work on Dyers Pass Road between<br />

Sign of the Takahe and Governors <strong>Bay</strong>.<br />

We’re widening seal on the road and installing safety barriers in a few more<br />

high-risk locations to make Dyers Pass Road safer for everyone.<br />

We’re just over halfway through the work, and will be out of your way in<br />

December as planned.<br />

If you can, we encourage road users to detour via the Lyttelton tunnel or<br />

Gebbies Pass. Otherwise expect delays of up to 20 minutes plus the normal<br />

travel time. Look out for the live travel time information on the electronic sign<br />

boards located at the intersections of Governors <strong>Bay</strong> Road/Dyers Pass Road<br />

and on Colombo Street, near Malcolm Ave.<br />

Thanks for your patience while we make Dyers Pass Road safer for everyone.<br />

18 <strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> News Wednesday <strong>November</strong> 9 <strong>2022</strong><br />

Ranger benefits from new engine<br />

I CAN’T HELP but feel a little<br />

disappointed when one of my<br />

favourite engines becomes no<br />

longer available.<br />

One in particular is the fivecylinder<br />

diesel that has been fitted<br />

to Ford’s Ranger and Everest for<br />

going on 12 years. It was a real<br />

champion in terms of performance<br />

and character.<br />

However, I can relax knowing<br />

that an engine of similar character<br />

is now an option on Ranger, it is<br />

a 3-litre turbocharged V6 diesel,<br />

and it is lusty, quiet, and has fuel<br />

economy on its side.<br />

Well, that’s just one option in<br />

new Ranger, of course you can also<br />

have the 2-litre twin-turbocharged<br />

four-cylinder engine that Ford has<br />

been introducing slowly over the<br />

last couple of years. I‘ve driven two<br />

variants of it in the time since and<br />

can also report that it is smooth,<br />

refined and easily capable of<br />

providing the Ranger buyer with<br />

the performance befitting a double<br />

cab utility.<br />

This evaluation focuses on the<br />

four-wheel-drive, Sport double cab<br />

with the new V6. It is a punchy unit<br />

with Ford claiming power outputs<br />

of 184kW and a hearty 600Nm of<br />

torque, the latter available from<br />

1750rpm to 2250pm, arriving just<br />

1000rpm lower than the area of<br />

peak power.<br />

It’s these figures that make the<br />

2993cc unit so flexible and willing<br />

to work low down, yet freeing up<br />

to breathe willingly at the top end.<br />

Add in the beauty of a 10-speed<br />

automatic transmission and you<br />

have a driveline that is car-like in<br />

its feel and presentation.<br />

In fact, the new Ranger has<br />

become so refined that it feels<br />

like a car to drive, sure it’s a lot<br />

bigger than the average sedan,<br />

and there’s a bit more bulk to<br />

consider if you are on the hunt<br />

for an inner-city park, but it is for<br />

this kind of sophistication that<br />

people buy double cab utes. There’s<br />

comfortable space for five adults<br />

and there’s a wealth of kit and<br />

technology within the vehicle to<br />

keep the kids and adults happy and,<br />

of course, there is a high degree<br />

of safety with most modern aids<br />

incorporated into the package.<br />

In Sport form it comes complete<br />

with full leather trim, satellite<br />

navigation, adaptable cruise<br />

control and electric driver’s seat<br />

adjustment, just to mention a few<br />

of the major items, but for your<br />

$75,490 outlay you do get all the kit<br />

worthy of the price. What’s more<br />

you are getting a workhorse, the<br />

rear deck area is just a bonus really,<br />

the Ranger is a versatile carryall<br />

that will also haul up to 3500kg on<br />

the tow bar.<br />

It was a case of really good<br />

timing that the new Ranger was<br />

placed my care, I had just dropped<br />

a pesky shrub that was taking up<br />

more space in the driveway than<br />

was ever intended. I used the<br />

Ranger’s deck space to off-load it<br />

to the green waste depot. It’s these<br />

types of tasks that make today’s<br />

pick-up so handy, it is a family car<br />

but with a multitude of uses.<br />

Underneath, the Ranger sits on a<br />

traditional ladder chassis and live<br />

axle, leaf spring rear suspension,<br />

the latter now fitted with disc<br />

brakes. That’s the traditional<br />

WORKHORSE: The Ford Ranger has substantial load space as well as offering seating for<br />

five.<br />

FORD RANGER SPORT: Choice of V6 or four-cylinder diesel power.<br />

• Price – Ford Ranger Sport<br />

double cab, $75,490<br />

• Dimensions – Length,<br />

5359mm; width, 1850mm;<br />

height, 1815mm<br />

• Configuration – V6, fourwheel-drive,<br />

2993cc,<br />

184kW, 600Nm, 10-speed<br />

automatic<br />

• Performance –<br />

0-100km/h, 8.8sec<br />

• Fuel usage – 8.4/100km<br />

load bearing design, yet it works<br />

well, the suspension isn’t firmed<br />

dramatically, instead the ride<br />

is comfortable and controlled<br />

with just a small jiggle or two<br />

transmitted in-cabin over the worst<br />

of our uneven road surfaces.<br />

When the need comes to travel<br />

off-road the Ranger gets an<br />

electronically controlled transfer<br />

system, in typical ute fashion there’s<br />

high and low ratio gearing, easily<br />

manipulated by a centre console<br />

dial. I didn’t travel off the seal,<br />

except for a section of very rough<br />

ground thanks to ongoing street<br />

repairs close to where I live. At<br />

30km/h the Ranger’s suspension<br />

absorption easily contains the<br />

bumps, and control within the<br />

vehicle is confidence-boosting.<br />

In terms of on-road handling, the<br />

Ranger steers with well-weighted<br />

steering, and directional accuracy<br />

not always found in the traditional<br />

double-cab ute.<br />

In terms of fuel usage, Ford<br />

claims an 8.4-litre per 100km<br />

combined cycle average. The trip<br />

computer was constantly listing<br />

around 10.3l/100km during my<br />

time with the evaluation vehicle,<br />

which would make Ford’s claim<br />

achievable given that at 100km/h<br />

in top gear the engine is turning<br />

over at just 1600prm, returning<br />

an instantaneous figure of around<br />

7.5l/100km.<br />

There’s no question the Ranger is<br />

pricey, but it is on a par with many<br />

of the other premium models in<br />

the pick-up sector. However, you<br />

are buying quality, and with that<br />

fabulous V6 engine (or bi-turbo) it<br />

will keep you entertained for years.<br />

Ford offers a five-year 150,000km<br />

warranty which tells you the<br />

company has much faith in its<br />

product.<br />

Bear in mind, though, you<br />

will be bitten at purchase, the<br />

Government will want around<br />

$4k off you as part of its clean car<br />

programme or, as it has become<br />

commonly known, a ute tax. Still,<br />

such is the all-round brilliance of<br />

the Ranger, it is money well spent.<br />

Ford has done a clever job with<br />

Ranger, not only has it been kept<br />

fresh over the years, the driveline<br />

combinations provide the buyer<br />

with plenty of choice. It’s the<br />

quality within the vehicle that<br />

will help maintain Ford’s position<br />

with Ranger, it commands the ute<br />

market here and I can’t see it being<br />

toppled from that spot any time<br />

soon.<br />

CHEERS!!<br />

TO THE BIG CHEESE!<br />

A massive thanks to you Mike, for 14 years stellar service and over half a million delicious gourmet pizzas<br />

(that’s a lot of mozzarella) you’ve done a fabulous job and we wish you well for whatever may come in the future!<br />

266 MAJOR HORNBROOK ROAD | MT PLEASANT<br />

Enviably situated high atop Mt Pleasant, this expansive 360 m2, four bedroom, three bathroom HOME offers the very best<br />

of hillside living with a sheltered aspect, sweeping views over the city, tiered outdoor living, and close proximity to hillside<br />

recreation.<br />

This HOME has recently been fully refurbished and offers new Abodo Vulcan cladding, double glazing, and a chic,<br />

contemporary, coastal finish throughout that could have it easily mistaken for a new build.<br />

Anchoring the open plan living and dining area, the stunning kitchen designed by award winning Modi Design, offers high<br />

quality appliances, an integrated central island timber dining table, and engineered stone bench tops. On trend timber<br />

flooring flows seamlessly through the dining area and open plan lounge, while a separate lounge with 5.1 surround sound<br />

offers a snug retreat with exceptional views and a multi-room sound system provides the perfect atmosphere no matter the<br />

occasion. The sheltered deck area provides the ideal space for alfresco entertaining on long summer evenings.<br />

Accommodation is four extremely spacious double bedrooms with built-in storage, soothing neutral decor, and sweeping<br />

views across the expansive city vistas. The master bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe and stylish ensuite, a guest suite also<br />

has an ensuite and walk-in wardrobe, and the remaining rooms share a family bathroom complete with a bath, and a separate<br />

powder room. An office with in-built joinery offers the perfect work from home solution.<br />

The internal access double garage with workshop also offers on-site parking outside - a necessity for hillside living, while<br />

a stylish laundry room, a full alarm and security camera system and gorgeous landscaped outdoor living areas with<br />

established planting completes the picture.<br />
