Hard work leads to career Continued from page 1 W h ile at tending Ma rlborough Girls’ College Sophie was given an opportunity in year 11 to join a programme offered to the school by the Clubs of Marlborough.

This programme enabled up to three students per year studying cookery to have afterschool work experience in the Clubs’ kitchen.

Sophie went into this with plenty of enthusiasm, willing to do the ‘hard graft’ of washing dishes and working front of

house.

The programme also promised the students employment and support with furthering their education, Clubs CEO Lee Davis says.

“Sophie demonstrated a clear passion for wanting to be a chef and she did the hard work to progress into the training, so we were more than willing to help her along the way,” he says.

Funding to help pay for her training was made available after Sophie was awarded a scholarship by the Clubs New

Zealand body.

Of the three national scholarships available, two went to Marlborough people.

Additional funding became available as part of a government apprenticeship training scheme which supplied Sophie with equipment, including chef’s knives.

Thanks to all this support and all of her hard work, Sophie completed her training and in August graduated her ‘modern apprenticeship’ and received her National Certificate in

Cookery level four.

For Lee and the Clubs catering operations manager David Fairlie, it was a proud moment for them to see Sophie achieve this success.

“This is the perfect example of what you can do if you want it, and if you start at school you could be achieving this at a young age too. Sophie will get a job interview based on her CV alone now that she has put in the hard yards “We are very proud of her,” he says.

Blenheim Rotary thanks retiring mayor

By Cathie Bell Blenheim Rotary has awarded retiring Marlborough mayor Alistair Sowman with a Paul Harris award.

Rotary club president Alastair Hebberd says it is time to recognise Alistair’s outstanding contribution to Marlborough.

The Paul Harris Fellow is the highest award of Rotary International.

It is named after Paul Harris, a Chicago lawyer who started Rotary International with three business associates in 1905.

When a Rotary Club recognises someone as a Paul Harris Fellow, a substantial contribution is made to The Rotary Foundation in the name of the recipient of the Paul Harris Fellow.

The award was presented to Alistair on Monday night by Alastair and club secretary Andy Rowe.

The award is not only for his outstanding service to the community as Mayor over the past 12 years, but also his involvement in

Marlborough mayor Alistair Sowman with his Paul Harris award, with Blenheim Rotary Club secretary Andy Rowe and president Alastair Hebberd.

the community as a member of the public.

Rotary club members say Alistair rarely has free weekends as he is so often attending community events and showing

support to so many.

“Although Alistair is stepping down as mayor, he is picking up quite a number of other roles in the community and will continue to support and contribute

to Marlborough.

“It was a true honour and privilege to recognise Alistair by asking him to become a Paul Harris Fellow for all he has done within our community.”

inbrief Guns and drugs charges A Marlborough man is to appear in court after police found a substantial cannabis grow room at a rural Blenheim dwelling as well as thousands of rounds of ammunition and several firearms.

Police say these included a loaded .22 calibre pistol, a loaded cut-down shotgun and a semi-automatic MSSA (AK47 type) with loaded magazines.

Body armour and camouflage gear were also located.

A 50-year-old man, who does not hold a firearms licence, has been arrested and is due to appear in the Blenheim District Court on Monday.

Councillors listen to speeches from retiring colleagues on Tuesday, but the term has ended in controversy over a secretly-recorded meeting.

Stoush over recorded meeting hits impasse

By Cathie Bell The two councillors who didn’t sign a declaration by the deadline say they were not involved in the secret recording of a Marlborough District Council meeting and are ‘happy’ to hand over their iPads to prove it.

A recording of the public-excluded session of a council committee meeting in April was published by an Auckland-based online blog as part of its targeting of mayoral candidate John Leggett.

John says the recording breaches the council’s code of conduct.

“Of equal concern are the questions of who is paying the bill to attack my mayoralty campaign, for whom, and why?”

Council district secretary Tony Quirk confirmed yesterday two councillors have not signed the declaration and that the council investigation is still ongoing.

The two councillors who haven’t

signed are Jamie Arbuckle and Jessica Bagge.

Jamie told the Sun yesterday he had no involvement in making the recording or passing it on to someone else.

“No, I did not. If the council wants the iPad, they can have it, I’ve no problems with that. I’ve had no involvement in it at all.”

He is now waiting until the election, when he will either be re-elected as a councillor or not.

The matter might be over then - if not elected, he’ll ‘go on holiday’ or he will be part of a new council, and the issue of how meetings are handled could be dealt with then.

The meeting discussion was not on the committee’s agenda, Jamie says, and came up after the committee went from Public Excluded back into public, with no minutes.

“One of the real issues here is council having meetings after official meetings with no account-

ability, minutes or agendas.”

Jessica says she was not at the meeting, ‘I’m not in the gun for this’.

She told the Sun yesterday she had not been sent the recording and had not passed it on, and she would be happy to sign the council’s declaration.

She wouldn’t speculate on who had done the recording.

“I’ve no idea, I’ve listened to it once and I just felt sick.”

The new council needs to take this opportunity to get rules around its meetings, and policies on video and audio recordings, as well as livestreaming, Jessica says.

“I believe for good governance, we need to have rules that are clear and everybody understands.

“This discussion wasn’t on the agenda, it wasn’t part of the meeting. It’s in a grey area after a meeting. It’s not good for council.

“It’s a terrible thing for our

Supression continues

reputation, a terrible way to end the term.”

Jessica is not standing for reelection and has retired from the council.

John says one of his first priorities as Mayor will be for council to better clarify the use of publicexcluded sessions.

Councillors have a joint responsibility to work productively together, he says, not to undermine their colleagues for political gain.

“Agreement on what items are dealt with in public exclusion will be one of the first agenda items under my mayoralty.”

Business inbrief

NMIT business course Nelson Marlborough Institute of Technology has launched a post-graduate business course which aims to help local firms succeed in overseas markets.

The Post-Graduate Diploma in International Business is a one-year course, beginning in February, which is designed around the work commitments of entrants. It can be studied from both the Nelson and Blenheim campuses.

NMIT’s Department for Business head John Inglis says the diploma covers every aspect of doing business overseas, from looking at impacts of politics and culture through to the practicalities of supply line management and packaging.

Blenheim added Blenheim will host the Government’s Taking Care of Business roadshow on November 14, after five more locations were added.

The roadshow for small businesses has been criticised for missing out places such as Marlborough where many of the businesses are small ones that could benefit.

The roadshow will be at the Convention Centre from 12.30pm to 2.30pm on November 14.

Small Business Minister Craig Foss says the roadshow is all about helping business owners engage with government agencies more effectively and efficiently by taking the experts to the businesses, not the other way around.

Furever Friends Story and photo by Celeste Alexander The loss of a pet can be a devastating loss to families, so when the time comes that they pass away owners are faced with the decision of how to memorialise them.

People choosing cremation have had to send their pets away to Christchurch or Nelson, but now Marlborough has its very own pet cremation service.

Furever Friends was started six weeks ago and has already begun helping a number of pet owners.

The business is owned by local couple Walter and Gemma Amsler.

The idea to start Furever Friends came to them when neighbours of Walter’s parents had to send their beloved dog to Christchurch for cremation.

“We thought why isn’t there something in Blenheim? It’s very emotional when a pet dies so to send them away and be unsure of when they return can be stressful

on the owner.

“It all sparked from there,” they say.

The couple imported a crematorium from America that is capable of taking an animal up to 100kg.

It’s designed to do individual cremations so pet owners are guaranteed to receive their pet’s ashes without any crossover with others.

Gemma says Furever Friends does same day home collections.

“If your pet passes away, then we can come collect it the same day,” she says.

The turnaround is seven days and any home collections are hand-delivered back to their owners.

Local veterinarians are working with Furever Friends so Walter and Gemma can collect pets from them and deliver them back if preferred by the owners.

“We really want to offer a service that’s caring and respectful of pets and their owners.

Furever Friends owners Walter and Gemma Amsler launched their new pet cremation business six weeks ago. They are pictured with their family dog and young daughter Emily.

“We understand that pets are family members so we will treat

them as if they are our own and with dignity.”

Adding value to aquaculture

By Cathie Bell The aquaculture industry is the latest Smart and Connected framework of industry and township groups working to improve the region’s sustainability and prosperity.

Terms of reference for the new group were signed at a meeting this week, where Brendon Burns was elected chair of the Group which includes people who bring perspectives from marine farming, community, iwi and Council.

Three groups have been set up to work on ‘harmony’, led

by Eric Jorgensen, ‘value and innovation’, led by Zane Charman, and a ‘regulatory’ group.

Brendon says the groups recognise that while aqua-

culture is a hugely important contributor to our economy it could do better in terms of developing its relationships with Marlborough communities.

“I’ve certainly long valued in my various roles what marine farming brings to Marlborough. It started at the same time as our region’s other stand-out industry but locally grown seafood has some work to do to gain some of the acceptance that wine enjoys. “ I’d love one outcome to be more joint win-win marketing of these two iconic Marlborough products.”

The Marine Farming Association’s newly elected president, Marlborough-based Jonathan Large said the in-

dustry’s support of the Smart and Connected initiative was another signal that it was keen to work with MDC and community to achieve desirable outcomes for all.

“We depend on the environment and water of the Sounds and top of the South to make our living. We do recognise it is public space and the privilege we enjoy operating there puts a lot of responsibilities on us, including genuine engagement processes.”

Council’s Support Services Manager Dean Heiford said the Smart and Connected Aquaculture initiative presented a unique opportunity to build the relationship between marine farming, Council and Marlborough communities.

COUNCIL NEWS Notices

Temporary Road Closure

2016 - 2017

12 November 2016 Pursuant to the Transport (Vehicular Traffic Road Closure) Regulations 1965, notice is given that Taylor Pass Road 10.65 kms from the Maxwell Road intersection to a point RP 20.85, which is 1.1 kms from the Awatere Valley Road intersection, is proposed to be closed to all vehicular traffic on Saturday 12 November 2016 from 8.00 am to 5.30 pm for the purpose of the Marlborough Car Club Annual sprint.

During the proposed period of closure, ordinary vehicular traffic may use the road being closed between events under the supervision and authority of an officer of the New Zealand Police (Traffic Safety Branch).

It will be an offence under the above regulations for any person other than under the authority of an authorised permit to use the road for ordinary vehicular traffic during the period of closure.

Persons wishing to object to the proposal are to lodge their objection and grounds thereof in writing before 14 October 2016 at the office of Marlborough Roads, The Forum, Market Street, Blenheim, PO Box 1031, Blenheim 7240.

Any enquiries should be addressed to Sandra Boyd, Marlborough Roads, Ph: 03 520 8330.

What’s the story with the new Waste Sorting Centre opening soon?

When the new waste sorting centre opens in Wither Road in November, attendants will be on hand to show people what to do.

Instead of tipping all their rubbish down into the big bins, people will be putting materials onto a conveyer belt if they’re suitable for sorting for recycling purposes.

Not all rubbish is suitable for sorting so there will be external bins and bays to take things like appliances, rubbish bags, metal, and oversize material (longer than 1.5 metres).

Construction of the new centre is almost complete and it should be operational from 1 November 2016.

Once it’s all running, the sorting centre will be able to take 12,000 tonnes of waste each year – diverting 60% of that into other use so it doesn’t have to go into the landfill.

This new facility DOES NOT replace the existing Resource Centre, Re-use Shop, Salvage Yard or Ewaste facility. These will all continue to operate as usual.

Do you know a business or community group that’s doing good things for the Environment?

The Sun Too many cats?

(Sun letter to Ed 21st Sept) - I am appalled at your letter S. Manson.

Never heard anything so ridiculous.

You are obviously not a cat lover.

Suggesting cats should be confined to indoors or if taken out put on a leash!

Are you serious? This is laughable.

Are you insane?

No responsible cat owner would keep their beloved cat under the conditions you describe.

You obviously have never experienced the unconditional love from a wonderful moggy.

Not surprised by that.

See a shrink about your Ailurophobia (irrational fear of cats).

Disappearing Cats

The recent disappearance of so many domestic cats in Redwoodtown and Witherlea areas is cruel to cats and their owners.

These are family pets and companion animals.

Cats don’t know boundaries but, neither do birds.

We have adopted four abandoned cats in the past fifteen months!

More tolerance is needed If you have a problem with a neighbour’s cat call the SPCA for advice rather than kill it.

I feel so sorry for the people who have lost cats.

My cat was stolen in the morning 12 November 2013 she was microchipped also and stayed in at nights.

Public transport With only one company doing the bus from Picton now, is it not time for a timetable review?

I recently missed out on a job, yes I could get there every morning, 7 days, but not home until a bus at 9 pm, and as a young single girl, should not have to hitch most nights!

Not everyone works the hours, and, I WANT to work.

Belonging to earth I just wanted to say that was beautiful.

It’s so great to know there are like minded people here in Marlborough.

We need more people like you, you are obviously an awakened soul.

Thanks for your message.

It should serve as a reminder to all.

Upgrade needed Blenheim is stuck in the 1990’s (and that’s being kind).

To attract more young people to stay let’s make the town appealing to young people.

Could NMIT collaborate with other learning institutions and create more distance study options?

Could the district council think of creating more young family friendly facilities around town such as playgrounds and baby/toddler friendly public parks/ play areas/ baby change/ feeding areas?

Then we would attract more business to tailor to that age group (including our bored teenagers) such as book shops, record shops, bars and live music venues, galleries ...then perhaps also business owners would re-consider staying closed on Sundays.

Positive suggestions on what upgrades you suggest in writing to council makes more sense.

Rate-funded projects relative to the size of the population.

If you think we’re behind here go back to Auckland.

This is Marlborough and we like it here.

It’s still friendly, quick to get around and small enough to enjoy the local community feel.

You don’t get that in Auckland.

Not a good option

I’m thinking the council is subsidising the theatre with the cost of car parking.

Parked and went to pay - $4.20 no problem.

Put card in paid and made way back to car.

Note person with rheumatoid arthritis cannot sprint.

Got to barrier put in card to be told by machine that I’d exceeded the allowed time.

Contacted a person by pushing the button.

Told I needed to reverse up and go back to the machine to pay extra- told it would be 20 cents.

Card goes in and I’m charged another $4.80 making a total of $9.00 - Auckland parking rates I’m thinking...And maybe not a good option for anyone elderly or disabled.

Nothing left So one man swims with a killer whale, could have been eaten alive.

He gets a real smack on the hand, large fines or jail time!

Fishing boats pull all the life from the ocean, throw perfectly good fish overboard, kill threatened dolphins, who knows what else goes on?

Nothing happens to them, something smells quite fishy here.

There won’t be anything left to fight for, then what?

Business takes Trip 2 Town Story and photo by Celeste Alexander Blenheim woman Megan Te Boekhorst has launched her new companion driving business, Trip 2 Town.

She says the idea to the start the business came from her passion for working with the elderly.

“For the last five years I have been working with the elderly and in that time I have seen a lot of funding cuts and people are finding that they can’t always get to where they need to be.

“Also many elderly have children who live out of town or overseas, and while there is the bus, mobility is still a problem for some, so I’m providing a service that will hopefully encourage people to feel comfortable leaving their homes and not live in isolation,” she says.

Megan is an ACC registered vendor so if people do need transport through ACC, Trip 2 Town can assist.

“One thing I did notice dealing with ACC is that there are a lot of young mums who had operations and couldn’t get their kids to school. Trip 2 Town can assist in a whole range of pathways,” she says.

Trip 2 Town can travel as far as Kaikoura and Nelson taking customers anywhere they need to go, including to the GP, on shopping trips or other appointments.

Megan had her first customer yesterday, Beryl Neal who says it was a ‘lovely experience’.

“Her personality is just lovely and I feel very comfortable with Megan Te Boekhorst has launched her companion driving busiher. She makes you feel welcome,” ness, Trip 2 Town. She’s pictured with her first customer Beryl Neal. she says.

Operation Christmas Child It’s that time of year again where the Marlborough community has the chance to spread joy and happiness to children who are less fortunate, thanks to the Samaritan’s Purse’s Operation Christmas Child.

October is the national collection month and co-ordinator for Marlborough Tracy Pigou is appealing to individuals, groups and organisations to get behind Operation Christmas Child and show

their support by filling a shoebox with items such as gifts and school supplies.

Last year saw Marlborough contribute 300 shoeboxes, a number Tracy would like to see increase this year.

“I am wanting to push for 500 from Marlborough.”

Already she has heard of a group putting together 50 boxes as well as a number of individuals who have

already collected their shoeboxes to fill.

“If there are anymore groups out there wanting to be involved, I would love to hear from you,” she says.

It will soon be confirmed where in the world the shoeboxes will be sent, but for now shoeboxes can be collected from the Sun office and the Blenheim Elim Church.

Candidates have their say Wairau-Awatere Ward (three required) This year’s local body election will bring change to the WairauAwatere ward, with the retirement of councillor Peter Jerram, chairman of the Marlborough District

Council’s environment committee.

There are five candidates standing for three positions in the ward.

The Sun asked candidates in this ward - what prompted you to put

your name forward, what do you want to achieve in council, and what skills do you think you bring to achieve this?

Voting forms have been posted

out to all voters, and need to be returned by noon on October 8.

Special votes can be made at the council building in Seymour Street, Blenheim.

Cynthia Brooks I am keen to continue the gains made in my first term as many of them, including drinking water upgrades in Seddon and Renwick, will be completed in the next three years.

My main objective from day one

has been to draw council and community closer together through positive and open two-way communication.

I believe I have the life skills, empathy and rapport with our community

and with council staff to be effective.

I am also capable of listening to the issues and making the bold decisions on behalf of all Marlburians of now and in the future.

My many years of work with people

in telling their stories has given me the ability to keep an open unbiased mind around the council table, to weigh up the issues and contribute to the debates and decision making to the best of my grass roots ability.

the ultimate community organisation.

Apart from the general wellbeing of the community, the areas which interest me most are care for the environment and the promotion and marketing of the region and products from the region.

We are starting to see cases of entities making short term commercial gain at the expense of aesthetics and other environmental values which, if protected, will provide greater gain for the province in the long term.

I am driving access to affordable broadband and wider cell phone coverage.

I also want to ensure there is the choice of a real rural voice on council.

I want to see accountability and a more open approach to debate on council.

A wide range of opinions and priorities need to be considered. We must respect our role in the taking and use

of ratepayers’ money.

A register of financial and other interests should be established and addressed at each full council meeting.

This is standard practice for most business and governance boards.

Colin King Having spent the past decade advocating for the north eastern side of the South Island as its Member of Parliament and in particular the rural aspects of Marlborough I was left feeling that rural towns and com-

On accepting the invitation of being part of designing the terms of reference for the Rural Advisory Group, I became excited at the prospect of being part of strengthening the rural

voice into council.

The rest of the story is history!

I want to ensure rural Marlborough’s towns and communities have the very best of services and facilities, that our people in rural

towns can turn on the tap and drink the water, safe in the knowledge it is fresh and clean and that our rural communities gain services and value for the money that they pay to council in rates.

Marlborough Sounds Ward (three required) This year’s local body election will bring change to the Marlborough Sounds ward, with the retirement of the Marlborough District Council’s longest-serving councillor Graeme

Barsanti, chairman of the council’s sister-city committee.

There are five candidates standing for three positions in the ward.

The Sun asked candidates in this

ward - what prompted you to put your name forward, what do you want to achieve in council and what skills do you think you bring to achieve this?

Voting forms have been posted out to all voters, and need to be returned by noon on October 8. Special votes can be made at the council building in Seymour Street, Blenheim.

Laurence Etheredge This had been in the back of my mind for a while, and having served as chairman of the French Pass Residents Inc for eight years, I believe I can extend myself on behalf of residents of the outer sounds, and look forward to the challenge of representing their

interests.

I want to improve the level of cooperation both within Council and throughout the wider community. We are so fortunate to live in a clean and relatively prosperous country, but we need to continue working out new

ways of collaborating to maintain economic prosperity in a sustainable way.

I am accustomed to travelling large distances, and will be putting a lot of miles in getting around to see everyone in the ward, whether by road or by sea.

I also want to play a part in achieving a balanced outcome in the planned use of our coastal environment, ensuring that development is sustainable, while acknowledging the need for commercial operators to have security of tenure.

I have chaired the Sounds Advisory

Group, which makes sure people in the Sounds have a voice.

And I have chaired the Regional Planning and Development Committee responsible for overseeing the Marlborough Environment plan (which

is a requirement of government).

discussed at full council and as such I saw it as a denial of democratic right and due process.

Clearly I am ‘for the people’.

The MEP as I read it is a draconian document that if put in place in its

proposed form could see extensive job losses for the Marlborough Region.

My aim if elected to council is to ensure that our industrial base is not eroded because of an unnecessary MEP regulatory regime.

The aim is to encourage entrepreneurs to ‘startup’ new business ventures and to protect people’s job security by using the environment in a responsible way to generate wealth in Marlborough.

the time was right for me to add to the voluntary work I’ve already undertaken on a wide range of Picton and Sounds community organisations, and to put my name forward.

I want to see communities setting their own goals in partnership with council

and well supported by council. Because I’m a people person it’s easy for me to make personal connections and be accessible to the community. I’ll listen to what’s important to the community and make sure their goals are well supported and represented at the council table.

I want to be part of a positive, cooperative, open council that makes well-informed, balanced and forwardthinking decisions. As a business owner and a mother I’ll be bringing my own commonsense, no-nonsense approach to the council table.

Relief carers wanted

By Celeste Alexander Age Concern Marlborough has a contract with the Nelson Marlborough District Health Board to provide carer relief for fulltime carers throughout the wider region.

However, Age Concern’s funding and community support co-ordinator Catherine Donnelly says they are struggling to find enough people to provide this service and as a result have launched a campaign to recruit more volunteers.

“We get lots of queries from people looking for at-home, informal respite care, but unfortunately we struggle to find volunteers to support this service,” she says.

She says relief carers play an important role in looking after older people with disabilities and also in supporting the primary carer.

“Relief carers provide an invaluable service.

Age concern

Welcome to scooter city Marlborough has more mobility scooters per head of person than any other town in New Zealand.

And scooters can be controversial, providing independence to many, but sometimes causing a nuisance to others using footpaths and roads.

Long-time scooter owner Lynne Nicholls says a scooter can be a dangerous piece of machinery, and adopting a sharing attitude is needed from both riders and other road users to reduce run-ins and conflict.

“It’s not just scooters, it’s people walking or running along …it applies to everyone using pedestrian [facilities], we are not exclusive,” she says.

The most common issue scooter riders face

is people coming out of driveways too quickly without stopping, Lynne says.

This is particularly troublesome on windy days.

“It’s something that no one ever thinks about, if you are scooting in really windy weather, you don’t hear vehicles coming.”

Bumps and dips in roads and footpaths cause problems for mobility scooters, something Lynne has been working to identify with the Marlborough District Council in recent months.

A bad experience on a scooter is enough to cause its owner to lose confidence, Lynne says.

“I would hate to think what percentage of

11

dignity

chAmpions

scooters sit in a garage and don’t get used”.

“There are different reasons people have scooters … I hate them, I hate using one but if I didn’t use it I would be stuck at home, it gives that independence.”

Lynne encourages people who are buying a scooter for the first time to have another experienced scooter rider go with them to sort out their route to town. The biggest thing all road users need to have is common sense and courtesy, she says.

Anyone wanting support with a new scooter could contact Robyn Blackburn at the Marlborough District Council, who could put them in contact with an experienced scooter user.

Pledge to help create a more inclusive New Zealand by becoming an Age Concern Dignity Champion.

The Sun

sport

is it 17 or 18 now?

I find myself longing for the days of the Super 12.

The amount of teams was in the name.

Most of the teams had their day in the sun at some point and most importantly everyone played each other throughout the round-robin.

Plus the finals system was easy to understand.

One played four and two played three.

I would suggest most people are like me, they prefer the old days of the competition structure.

The competition goes on forever and it’s highlighted by a

sports talk

three week international window and the fact there are some teams, probably five or six, who simply aren’t up to the standard of Super Rugby.

All of it leads to super oversaturation of Super Rugby.

It would be nice if the powers that be listened to the fan base and not just the sound of money.

Less can be more, make people excited with anticipation.

Don’t give them terrible match ups, make them salivate as they wait patiently for a contest and competition that is worth watching because Super Rugby has not been like that for a few years now.

Golden oldies flock to town

By Cathie Bell The top of the South Island golden oldies rugby festival is starting this evening, with a wide range of players, including 92 year-old local man, Arthur Pacey, who still gets on the field.

Spokesman Phil Gibbons says Arthur has booked to go to the world festival in two years’ time.

There will be 10 teams attending this weekend’s festival, from both the South and North Islands, and they include the Southbridge Eels, former All Black star Dan Carter’s club, and his father Neville will be taking part.

Numbers are down from the previous festivals’ 36 teams, but that is probably because a world’s festival was held in Cardiff, Wales earlier this month, Phil says.

The local team and

hosts of the festival are the Marlborough Vintage Musseleers, named after two major industries in Marlborough.

They promote the products by presenting wine and mussels to the teams they play, he says.

The Musseleers play touch rugby on Wednesday nights at Awarua Park in Spring Creek and welcome new members, Phil says.

“It’s a great way to keep fit and keep the cobwebs off the lungs.”

The club’s youngest member is 38 and the oldest is 92, he says, ‘with every age in between’.

The golden oldies festivals are held every second year, and are great fun, Phil says.

This weekend’s festival starts tonight with a meet and greet at the Clubs of Marlborough and Grove Tavern, and games start

Taking the ‘Super’ out of rugby It is official, when it comes to Super Rugby I am showing my age, at 27.

I had no interest in the competition in 2016, yes my Crusaders were mediocre by lofty standards, but I couldn’t get my head around the conferences or the convoluted playoff system.

Unfortunately for me, the Crusaders will still be average next year (goodbye, Jordie Barrett) but also the ridiculous competition structure will also be back.

Four Kiwi teams made the six team playoffs this year yet three of them hit the road for opening week of the playoff.

There are also too many teams,
