‘Soulmate’<br />
loses brain<br />
cancer<br />
battle<br />
• By Shayne Currie<br />
RADIO AND TV star<br />
Simon Barnett’s beloved wife<br />
Jodi has died.<br />
She passed away<br />
peacefully at the couple’s<br />
home early on Monday<br />
– with the devastated<br />
broadcaster and family at<br />
her side – following a fiveand-a-half-year<br />
battle with<br />
brain cancer.<br />
“We are absolutely<br />
heartbroken that our<br />
beautiful wife and mother,<br />
Jodi, passed away in the<br />
early hours of Monday<br />
morning,” the Barnett<br />
family said in a statement<br />
yesterday.<br />
“We are completely broken<br />
but trust she is now walking<br />
and talking freely with our<br />
heavenly Dad.<br />
“Words cannot adequately<br />
convey how deeply loved she<br />
was by us, and all who knew<br />
her.”<br />
The 61-year-old wife,<br />
mother and grandmother<br />
– she and Barnett had<br />
been married 32 years and<br />
have four daughters and<br />
three grandchildren – had<br />
undergone four brain<br />
surgeries, chemotherapy<br />
and radiation treatment<br />
since April 2018, when she<br />
suffered a seizure out of the<br />
blue at the couple’s home.<br />
Her fourth and most<br />
recent surgery was in<br />
January.<br />

French flair and family fun<br />
• By Sasha Watson<br />
A CROWD of up to 10,000 is<br />
expected to celebrate the biennial<br />
Akaroa French Festival over the<br />
weekend.<br />
“The festival has seen many postponements<br />
since 2019, but this year<br />
it will finally return with what looks<br />
like fantastic weather,” said festival<br />
spokesperson Luke Dawkins.<br />
“An extra day was added to the<br />
celebrations to allow for more options<br />
and prevent festival enjoyers from<br />
missing out on anything.”<br />
The festival will open with a powhiri<br />
at 5pm on Friday, followed by a<br />
night market.<br />
Saturday will see reenactments of<br />
the first French settlers arriving in<br />
1940, a parade and day market, and<br />
variety show Le Cabaret.<br />
Sunday offers the La Brocante vintage<br />
fair, a best-dressed fancy french<br />
pooch parade (right) and, Le Cirque<br />
Du Croissant, a show set to entertain<br />
children of all ages.<br />

Jetty opening makes a splash<br />
DIVE RIGHT IN: The Canterbury Open Water Swimming Association made the winning $1100 bid to be<br />
the first jumpers off the new Governors <strong>Bay</strong> jetty.<br />

FOR OVER a decade, the<br />

on restoring the 300m-long<br />
walkway since 2015.<br />
The jetty, which was damaged<br />
by the February 22, 2011<br />
earthquake, officially reopened<br />

‘I just want you forever and ever’<br />
• From page 1<br />
Barnett’s Newstalk ZB<br />
colleague, breakfast host Mike<br />
Hosking, choked back tears as he<br />
relayed the news to his listeners<br />
yesterday morning.<br />
“Obviously for us, it’s a very<br />
sad day. All our love and all our<br />
thoughts and all our prayers go<br />
to Simon and his family.”<br />
In an interview with the NZ<br />
Herald published at the weekend,<br />
Barnett described Jodi as his<br />
“perfect soulmate” and “greatest<br />
cheerleader” who had defied<br />
odds all the way.<br />
But he also revealed doctors<br />
had given Jodi just weeks to live:<br />
“Things are grim now.”<br />
Barnett said the best moments<br />
of his life were when he was with<br />
Jodi and their four daughters,<br />
Samantha, Sophie, Bella and<br />
Lily, who are all now in their 20s.<br />
Jodi, he said, was the very<br />
embodiment of “kindness and<br />
selflessness”.<br />
Revealing how they met<br />
“accidentally” on the Mt Hutt<br />
skifield in 1988 – when the then<br />
What Now TV host spotted her<br />
having trouble on one of the lifts<br />
– Barnett said he had never been<br />
loved “like the way she loves<br />
me”.<br />
“Her whole mission in life was<br />
to be the best mum she could be<br />
and the best wife that she could<br />
be,” Barnett said.<br />
“And if you look at her life – by<br />
any measure of success – she<br />
completely exceeded that.”<br />
Barnett, the host of Newstalk<br />
ZB’s Afternoons show, said his<br />
faith had led him to believe Jodi<br />
would “get through this – and<br />
she did every time”.<br />
“But of course, more recently,<br />
I’ve realised that we are really in<br />
a battle.”<br />
He said his wife had not once<br />
cried about her predicament.<br />
“She’s not the toughest woman<br />
I know, I don’t qualify that. She’s<br />
the toughest person I know.<br />
“I’ve cried bucket loads.<br />
When I’m showering her and<br />
massaging her legs I just cry.<br />
“I’m holding her legs and<br />
her feet and just looking at this<br />
girl, just my beautiful wife, and<br />
saying, ‘I just want you forever<br />
and ever’.”<br />
Barnett added that he was at<br />
his wife’s side constantly.<br />
“I just don’t want my wife to<br />
ever feel a moment where I’m not<br />
there. So all through the night, I<br />
just touch her hand and say I’m<br />
here.”<br />
After Jodi developed a lifethreatening<br />
brain bleed soon<br />
after her first operation in 2018,<br />
one of the couple’s daughters,<br />
Sophie, turned to Barnett in<br />
hospital.<br />
“She said, ‘Dad, I just don’t<br />
want to live in a world without<br />
Mum’,” a tearful Barnett said.<br />
“And that’s so what I felt, I<br />
just didn’t want to live and don’t<br />
want to live in a world without<br />
Mum.”<br />

Māori history, climate<br />
change key concerns<br />
WARM SMILES: Jodi and Simon Barnett at their daughter<br />
Samantha’s wedding in 2017, before Jodi was diagnosed<br />
with brain cancer.<br />
• From page 5<br />
Barnett said his life would<br />
never be the same.<br />
“I sound like I am heroworshipping<br />
her, but the fact is,<br />
she is my hero.<br />
“I’ve said to her multiple times<br />
in the past five years and even<br />
though she can’t respond, ‘I’m<br />
simply in awe of you’.”<br />
Barnett said his bond with Jodi<br />
had only strengthened during her<br />
illness.<br />
“As if it were possible, I love<br />
her more deeply now than I ever<br />
have at any time in our marriage.<br />
I mean, so many things have<br />
changed, but I just love her now<br />
more deeply, more intently than I<br />
ever have at any point in 32 years.<br />
“So many people have said<br />
you’ve just got a genuine love<br />
story.<br />
“Unfortunately, it’s just got such<br />
a tragic end and I never saw it. I<br />
just never saw this.<br />
“But as the Bible says, love<br />
never gives up, love never loses<br />
faith, love is always hopeful,<br />
and endures through every<br />
circumstance.”<br />
Details of Jodi’s service will be<br />
shared in the coming days, the<br />
Barnetts said in the statement<br />
yesterday.<br />

PROTECTING Māori history<br />
and dealing with adverse<br />
weather events are key points<br />
to emerge from community<br />
consultation for the Te Pataka<br />
o Rakaihautū Banks Peninsula<br />
Destination Management Plan.<br />
The plan has entered a final<br />
focused review before it is<br />
completed in November.<br />
Key points from community<br />
consultation include finding<br />
better mechanisms to<br />
manage cruise ships, better<br />
infrastructure to deal with<br />
adverse weather events, and<br />
protecting the region’s Māori<br />
history and community<br />
character with slower, more<br />
engaged tourism.<br />
In May, initial feedback on the<br />
draft plan was shared and since<br />
then further submissions have<br />
been received.<br />
Considerations include<br />
continued mana whenua<br />
consultation, the community<br />
hui on cruise ships held in<br />
August, and peer reviewing of<br />
the plan by an industry expert.<br />
The plan is being developed<br />
with specific areas of<br />
community focus, such as<br />
encouraging longer stays<br />
for visitors, reducing the<br />
environmental and social<br />
impact of tourism, emphasising<br />
the unique culture and<br />
natural environment of the<br />
area, and giving attention to<br />
infrastructure and facilities.<br />

Sisters Under the Rising Sun<br />
by Heather Morris<br />
Amid the turmoil of World War II, Norah Chambers, an English musician living<br />
in Malaya, sends her eight-year-old daughter Sally away on a ship bound for<br />
Australia, desperate to keep her safe from invading Japanese forces. Two<br />
months later, Norah has fled to Singapore. As has Australian nurse Nesta<br />
James. Sisters in arms, Norah and Nesta fight side by side. Drawing upon<br />
their real-life experiences, Heather Morris chronicles the powerful bonds<br />
of sisterhood among the 500 Australian, English, Dutch and New Zealand<br />
women who struggled and survived together for nearly four years. The result<br />
of Heather’s passionate commitment to ensuring that the bravery of these<br />
nurses, mothers and daughters is recognised, Sisters under the Rising Sun<br />
has all the elements loved by her millions of readers: strong women, courage<br />
against the odds and the power of friendship and community.<br />
Testament<br />
by Wilbur Smith, Mark Chadbourn<br />
An epic new novel of Ancient Egypt, from the Master of Historical Adventure,<br />
Wilbur Smith. IN THE RUINS OF BATTLE A HERO MUST RISE FOR THE FUTURE<br />
OF EGYPT. Years of Hyksos rule have seen the ruin and suffering of a oncemighty<br />
Egypt. Though Pharaoh is now restored to his rightful throne, his power<br />
is fragile as some seek to take advantage of the ensuing chaos following the<br />
overthrowing of the Hyksos. Desperate to unite the two divided kingdoms of<br />
Egypt under Pharaoh’s rule, the great mage Taita sends his protege, Piay, to<br />
discover the answer to a millennia-old riddle which has the power to secure<br />
the fate of Egypt forever. But in the chaos of war, a dark evil has thrived. With<br />
the fate of Egypt at stake, Piay races across the desert chasing the clues from<br />
the riddle. Can he prevent their beloved land falling into the hands of those<br />
who would see its ruin?<br />

Synchro Dolphins take silver<br />
THE PROVINCE’S future in<br />
synchronised swimming looks<br />
to be in good hands, following<br />
Canterbury Dolphins’ success at<br />
last week’s Artistic Swimming<br />
Nationals in Auckland.<br />
The Canterbury Dolphins, a<br />
team of five swimmers, took second<br />
place in the Dolphin Combo<br />
under 16s competition, against<br />
six other teams from across the<br />
country.<br />
The talented young synchro<br />
swimmers showcased their<br />
abilities during a three-minute<br />
routine set to a medley of Mission<br />
Impossible, James Bond,<br />
and Pink Panther tunes.<br />
All but two of the girls joined<br />
the team in recent months.<br />
Twelve-year-old Georgie Halliwell<br />
was introduced to the sport<br />
earlier this year by her school<br />
friend Emily Betteridge, 12. Emily<br />
has been a part of Canterbury<br />
Artistic Swimming for two<br />
years, alongside teammate Alex<br />
Macfarlane, 12.<br />
“It’s like underwater gymnastics,”<br />
said Emily about the sport.<br />
“And you’re doing it in perfect<br />
sync with the rest of the team –<br />
it’s challenging! We count, and<br />
we listen to the music.”<br />
Georgie shared her excitement<br />
about participating in the event.<br />
“Synchronised swimming is a<br />
combination of all my favourite<br />
things, with swimming, music,<br />
and creating routines all being<br />
important,” she said.<br />
“It’s really fun being part of a<br />
team, and we train hard.”<br />
The team’s dedication is evident<br />
in their rigorous training<br />
regimen, which consisted of five<br />
hours each week.<br />
Coach Jo Biddle expressed her<br />
pride in the girls’ dedication and<br />
focus.<br />
“I’m super proud of these girls<br />
and how they’ve truly committed<br />
themselves to achieve these<br />
remarkable results,” she said.<br />
“They’ve come a long way<br />
and have truly earned this<br />
recognition.”<br />

‘Whalers retreat’: Waitata Little<br />
AT THE exposed mouth of<br />
Whakaraupō Lyttelton <strong>Harbour</strong><br />
lies a small bay carved into the<br />
steep cliffs below the southern<br />
headland of Te Piaka Adderley<br />
Head (Charles Adderley was<br />
an MP and prominent<br />
member of the Canterbury<br />
Association).<br />
Piaka refers to the edible root<br />
or bulb of raupō (bulrush) and<br />
therefore connects to the greater<br />
harbour’s name of Whakaraupō<br />
(Lyttelton <strong>Harbour</strong>). Known to<br />
Māori as Waitata, the sheltered<br />
bay was utilised by residents<br />
of Ngāi Tahu’s Puāri pā at<br />
Koukourārata Port Levy for<br />
gathering kaimoana.<br />
The bay’s first European name,<br />
Whalers Retreat, poetically<br />
evoked the earliest European<br />
activities in the region.<br />
Whaling had begun in<br />
Aotearoa New Zealand’s waters<br />
in the early 1790s with vessels<br />
crewed by tough men primarily<br />
from Britain, North America,<br />
Australia and France, many of<br />
whom were ex-convicts – hard<br />
men for certain.<br />
Their target for the lucrative<br />
blubber and baleen was the<br />
Southern right whale (Eubalaena<br />
glacialis australis), humpback,<br />
and sperm whales. All of these<br />
migrated along New Zealand’s<br />
long coastline to and from<br />
feeding grounds in the wild<br />
southern oceans to warmer<br />
breeding grounds.<br />
The right whale was so named<br />
as it was the ‘right’ whale to<br />
target, being slower and more<br />
passive than other species and<br />
because mothers with calves<br />
would not desert their young;<br />
they were slaughtered first to<br />
ensure the capture of the<br />
Men in small<br />
boats fighting<br />

frantic mother.<br />
Whaling ships Lucy-Ann and<br />
Joseph Weller were probably the<br />
first to visit the bay in 1835. In<br />
1836, Captain Hempleman’s brig<br />
Bee spent about eight months<br />
taking refuge in the relatively<br />
sheltered waters of the bay.<br />
The crew used the beach for<br />
the odorous and often dangerous<br />
process of scarving and flensing<br />
the carcasses (when not using<br />
a shore station, these activities<br />
would take place with the whale<br />
hung by its tail alongside the<br />
ship).<br />
The blubber was then rendered<br />
to its valuable oily essence in<br />
trypots. Bone was sometimes<br />
buried in order to rot away the<br />
remaining flesh and huge tentlike<br />
piles of whalebones were left<br />
bleaching in the sun.<br />
The headland was a prime<br />
vantage point to sight the telltale<br />
spouts of migrating cetaceans<br />
and to convey messages between<br />
shore, ship and whaleboat. At<br />
one time, as many as 14 whaling<br />
ships were working the waters of<br />
Pegasus <strong>Bay</strong> from the cove.<br />
In July 1836, Captain Rhodes<br />
of the Australian abandoned<br />
17 crew ashore for mutiny, a<br />
common solution to discipline<br />
problems aboard ship. There had<br />
been numerous troubles on board<br />
until the final insubordination –<br />
the whalers had refused to row<br />
their longboat with whale in tow<br />
to shore from a mere 40km out<br />
at sea!<br />
A number of French ships,<br />
including the Asia, also used<br />
the bay – both officers and crew<br />
interacted and traded with local<br />
Māori from Koukourārata Port<br />
Levy, who set up temporary<br />
camps on the beach.<br />
Lieutenant Joseph Fournier of<br />
the corvette Heroine drew the<br />
first charts of the waters, while<br />
Captain Jean Langlois of the<br />
Cachelot attempted to purchase<br />
land from tangata whenua.<br />
A number of mariners and<br />
very likely some Māori too were<br />
buried in a small cemetery,<br />
having fallen to the rigours of the<br />
perilous industry.<br />
Later, John Ames operated a<br />
shore whaling station through<br />
1844-5, despite the industry’s<br />
focus having moved to more<br />
profitable waters as right whale<br />
numbers became decimated.<br />

Port Cooper<br />
Before the earthquakes<br />
Whale vertebra. Te Ūaka The Lyttelton Museum ref.816.1<br />
https://www.teuaka.org.nz/online-collection/532770<br />
According to the journal of<br />
Asia’s surgeon Dr Felix Maynard,<br />
trypots, boilers, furnaces and all<br />
manner of gear were thrown out<br />
into the depths of the bay’s waters<br />
when the Asia departed for good,<br />
leaving little evidence but whale<br />
bone of the gruesome use of the<br />
cove.<br />
By the 1840s, Whalers Retreat<br />
was widely referred to by the<br />
English name that it is known today:<br />
Little Port Cooper – a ‘little<br />
sibling’ to the larger Port Cooper<br />
(which became Port Lyttelton in<br />
1857) in which it lies.<br />
The name was bestowed by<br />
Captain William Wiseman of the<br />
brig Elizabeth in honour of his<br />
employer Daniel Cooper.<br />
Cooper, originally from Lancashire,<br />
was a former convict<br />
transported to the Australian<br />
penal colony for life, who became<br />
a wealthy and successful sealer,<br />
trader and ship merchant in<br />
Sydney. His partner and fellow<br />
ex-convict, Solomon Levey,<br />
(transported for the theft of 90<br />
pounds of tea and a chest), also<br />
left his mark on history in the<br />
name of neighbouring Port Levy,<br />
albeit without the second ‘e’ in<br />
his surname.<br />
In the lead-up to its<br />
150th anniversary<br />
celebration over Labour<br />
weekend, the Lyttelton<br />
Volunteer Fire Brigade<br />
looks back at its past in a<br />
regular column<br />
THIS PEACEFUL photo of<br />
the Lyttelton Fire Station and<br />
both fire appliances was taken<br />
in January 2011. A month later,<br />
everything changed.<br />
The 2010/2011 earthquake<br />
period was undoubtedly the<br />
most intense in the brigade’s<br />
stellar history, 150 years of<br />
which will be celebrated in two<br />
weeks’ time.<br />
The two fire trucks are still in<br />
use 12 years later, but nothing<br />
else is the same.<br />
For weeks after February 22,<br />
2011, the fire station became the<br />
hub of the community.<br />
The fire communications<br />
centre couldn’t understand out<br />
why so few calls for assistance<br />
were coming from Lyttelton.<br />
Local residents just turned up<br />
at the station, where a friendly<br />
face and a large not-very-hightech<br />
whiteboard were ready<br />
to organise any help that was<br />
required.<br />
Six years later, almost to the<br />
day in 2017, the brigade moved<br />
into their now very-high-tech<br />
new fire station.<br />
READY: Lyttelton Fire Station’s two appliances in January<br />
2011. Both are still in use today.<br />
That’s where, on Friday,<br />
<strong>October</strong> 20, a meet and greet<br />
social evening will kick-start the<br />
150th celebrations, followed on<br />
Saturday by a fascinating display<br />
of old and new fire appliances,<br />
and the formal dinner in a<br />
grand marquee in the station car<br />
park.<br />
While the earthquakes<br />
provided the Lyttelton Volunteer<br />
Fire Brigade with some of its<br />
proudest moments, nothing<br />
beats 150 years of continuous<br />
service.<br />
Registrations for the 150th<br />
anniversary celebrations<br />
of the Lyttelton Volunteer<br />
Fire Brigade are open<br />
now. If you’re a past<br />
brigade member, know<br />
someone who is, or just<br />

occasion with them,<br />

Kōrero mai, let’s talk about our<br />
Safer speed plan<br />
Way safer for everyone<br />
We’re planning to change speed limits in<br />
Governors <strong>Bay</strong>, Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> settlements<br />
and around Koukourarata Marae.<br />
Lower speeds can save lives and prevent serious injury.<br />
Reducing our speed makes a major difference in a crash.<br />
People make mistakes on our roads, and those mistakes<br />
shouldn’t cost our neighbours, whānau or pets their lives.<br />
Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency have changed the way<br />
speed limits are set. This gives us an opportunity to plan an<br />
area-wide approach for speed changes.<br />
We’re asking for feedback on our 10-year vision and principles<br />
for safe speeds across Christchurch and Banks Peninsula, as<br />
well as our first three years of implementation.<br />

The<br />
YUMMI<br />
study.<br />
The role of cow, goat or sheep milk in<br />
the nutrition and health of older women.<br />
Milk provides important nutrients that help older people to maintain<br />
muscle and bone health, and low milk intake is often associated with<br />
poor nutrition in older adults.<br />
We are looking for female volunteers aged 60 to 80 years to participate<br />
in the YUMMI study, a 12-week research study investigating the health<br />
effects of consuming different types milk – cow, goat, or sheep.<br />
We will provide you with cow, goat or sheep milk powder to drink<br />
twice a day for 12-weeks, or you will be asked to eat your normal diet<br />
(control group). The time commitment for the study will be about 11<br />
hours and you will attend five clinic visits. You will receive up to $220 in<br />
supermarket vouchers in recognition of the actual or reasonable costs<br />
involved with participating in this study (e.g. parking and/or travel costs).<br />
If you are a woman aged 60 to 80 years and can drink milk, we would<br />
love to hear from you.<br />
