Quarter of a hectare floor space in heart of CBD By Richard Miller A landmark central Blenheim property, with a floor area you could graze a couple of sheep in, is up for sale. Offers are being sought for the Farmers department store property – with a floor area of a quarter of a hectare - on the corner of Market and High Streets. The current lease to Farmers lasts until late next year, and there are also two smaller tenants, which bring in a total rent of $321,000 a year. Owned by a small group of Marlborough and Auckland investors, the property over two floors is being marketed through Colliers International. “It’s hard to say what it would sell for but the property has a rateable value of $3.8 million,� said Rick Stace, speaking to the Sun from Colliers Wellington office.

“We only started marketing last Friday but it’s fair to say there’s not much development going on at the moment.� However, he said with investors currently shying away from bare land it was “an ideal time to pick up a site like that� and wait for the market to improve. “If someone was looking to develop whether in two years time or slightly down the track they would have plenty of time to sort it out,� he said. It was rare for a property of this size and stature to come on to the market. The character building, offering a floor area of 2578m squared, was originally built in the 1930s for Farmers Trading Company and rebuilt after a fire in 1976. “It’s an excellent chance to pick up a prime site that hasn’t been available for a long, long

time,� he said. “It’s one of the biggest sites in Marlborough, huge development potential and located on a prominent corner in the heart of the town centre.� An added attraction was that there was a holding income until the end of next year. “The buyer would have a reasonable amount of time to piece together finance and secure tenants,� he said. He suspected that any buyer would concentrate on splitting the retail into smaller tenancies to generate a higher price per metre and by developing the first floor into offices. “It has such a large footprint offering plenty of options. It could work well if someone was prepared to put a bit of effort into developing the site into either a large retail format or smaller tenancies with offices and apartments on top.�

Plunket angered by theft By Celeste Lodewyk Blenheim Plunket staff are ‘disgusted’ at Friday night’s burglary which saw thieves remove a pane of glass to gain access to the Henry Street rooms, making off with a cash tin containing over $100. Car seat rental scheme co-ordinator Maureen van Gelder said although the money stolen may seem ‘insignificant’ to the thieves, in the community’s eyes it was a considerable loss. “Basically the money was nearing the amount needed to purchase a new infant car seat which we so desperately need,� she said. “We have been working hard to raise money for 10 new car seats for the community to hire as the demand is greater than our resources, so this theft has been a really sad setback for us.� Maureen was bemused by the thieves who carefully removed a large pane of glass at the front of the building, placing it gingerly beside the frame before entering. They then broke a padlock off a door to gain access to a clinical room before again breaking another padlock to a locked drawer, containing the stolen cash tin. When a cleaner arrived on Saturday morning she discovered the removed glass and contacted Police. Plunket external communications executive in Wellington, Katherine Hoby said when she heard of the theft she was deeply disappointed by the thoughtless act. “From our perspective it is really disappointing as our staff and volunteers work so hard to raise money for resources which directly benefit their communities, and an act like this means they now need to spend precious time to recover stolen funds. “And now with our annual appeal coming up this month, instead of starting at zero, Blenheim Plunket

now has to start in the negative which is really tough,� Katherine said. The response from the community has already been ‘overwhelming’ said Maureen. “A lot of people have expressed their disgust and disbelief toward the theft which I think shows the pride and support that the community has for us.

“If you are the thief and reading this, look what your actions have done. It may have been a bit of cash to you but in reality you have taken away something really important – you have now deprived an infant,� she says angrily. Finger prints have been collected from the scene and police are continuing their investigation.

Two local winning tickets strike gold Two Blenheim ticketholders won First Division Lotto in last weekends draw. One lucky Blenheim lotto winner had more than her birthday to celebrate when she discovered she was one of two local winners collecting a $500,000 share of Lotto’s First Division prize from the weekend draw. The online winner, who bought her ticket via mylotto.co.nz, and whom wishes to remain anonymous, says she found out by accident that she’d won. “I was at my parents for my birthday, and my dad always checks his numbers by Teletext. So I showed him how he could check his num-

bers online in future by using the example of my own online Lotto ticket. While I was explaining it to him, I kept noticing my numbers were coming out, and then things got really exciting,� says the very happy winner.

“I can’t believe I won on my birthday, and it’s just a few weeks since I left my job, and now I can buy the Tinkerbell charm for my bracelet that I’ve had my eye on – you wouldn’t believe it!� The other winners, who bought their ticket at Blenheim New World, claimed in the Wellington NZ Lotteries office on Monday, and say they were equally excited when they found out they’d won. “We usually watch the draw on Saturday nights, but the cricket was so exciting that we missed it and had to check our numbers later – the Lotto result was much better than the cricket one in the end though!� laughs the retired Blenheim local.

Post Shop saved Supermarket steps up for community

CULTURAL PERFORMERS: Wearing their traditional Tongan dance costumes are Victoria Uhatafe and Elizabeth Kula. Photo: Celeste Lodewyk.

Fun and laughter at Children’s Day Brayshaw Park was alive with the sounds of delight and laughter on Sunday with the annual Children’s Day open to the public. Families flocked to the popular event and celebrated their children by spending quality time sharing lunch and activities together. Aiming to create a fun filled and inexpensive day for families to enjoy, organisers held a variety of stalls, displays and demonstrations ranging from petting kittens at the SPCA stall right through to face painting. To the crowd’s delight several cultural performances took place throughout the event including a Tongan traditional dance (pictured).

By Richard Miller Redwood SuperValue owners Darryl and Cecilia Norman have stepped up in the nick of time and saved the Redwood Village Post Office. It had looked like postal services in the community were doomed. With the current New Zealand Post contract ending next month, retiring owners Jim and Cherie Lochead had been unable to find a buyer in the past two years. But the Normans have now stepped into the breach. “It certainly wasn’t a commercial decision,� said Cecilia. “We were as concerned as anyone about losing postal services from Redwood Village. We didn’t want to see elderly people having to trek all the way into Blenheim. “Our offer to include the postal service within the supermarket, stemmed from our wish, and also the wish of the many locals and elderly people supporting the Redwood Village Shopping area, not to lose this facility from the area.� Cecilia said as well as offering postal services the couple also wanted to include Kiwibank and bill-paying services but New Zealand Post refused the offer, preferring to locate those services in its revamped Main Street Post Shop. “We were happy to take on the computers and do bill paying but they wanted to keep the bill paying and the postal services side distinct. “We regret that we were not given the opportunity to continue the bill paying facility but New Zealand Post has now moved that service to their town centre operation along with the Kiwi Bank services.� With two retirement homes in the suburb, Redwood Village has a high proportion of elderly people and many are regulars users of the local post shop. “Our primary motivation in doing this was because we did not want to lose the

service in Redwoodtown, not only for the elderly but for everybody,� said Cecilia. “It will possibly increase foot traffic into the supermarket as well and if it does that it will be an added bonus.� Mrs Norman said the Post Centre would be incorporated into the Redwood SuperValue Supermarket from Monday 29th March. Post Boxes will be up and running by 27th March. “We are working closely with the current owners to ensure a smooth transition and minimum disruption for our customers.� She said the Post Centre would be incorporated, on a temporary basis, into Lane One of the supermarket’s checkouts. “After which it is likely be incorporated

into a customer service area at such a time when planned renovations to the supermarket are undertaken.� Customers with Post Office boxes will find boxes relocated to the covered walk way on the Weld Street side of the Supermarket from the change over date. “We hope current customers of both the Supermarket and the Redwood Post Shop will be pleased to know they will soon be able to buy their groceries and postal needs in a ‘one stop shop’ seven days a week.� New Zealand Post’s head of retail operations and marketing, Scott Pollard said: “We appreciate that the change at Redwood Village is likely to inconvenience some people and we don’t take these decisions lightly.

Small on quantity, big on quality. This was the order of the day for the Fairhall School’s swim team who created its own piece of history by winning first place honours at the annual Marlborough Primary School’s swimming championships last Friday. The team competed at the Marlborough Lines Pool outclassing their bigger counterparts by winning first place in both the Marlborough Year 8 freestyle relay, and year 5-6 medley relay. Although a country school, Fairhall School’s increased role of over 200 pupils from year one to eight, categorises it as not a small school but a big school in the sporting arena. Fairhall’s year 5-6 relay swimmers all swam extremely well with Stella Blake and Kobe Miller excelling in their lengths, enabling year 6 boys champ Sam Cameron-Dunn to power home and take first place for Fairhall

School. It was a proud moment for the Fairhall year 8 freestyle team, all in their last year at the school. Pride was on the line to create something extraordinary and that they did. Tom Cameron-Dunn led out strongly with Lucy Partridge and Jess Deaker holding their own. Fairhall touched third equal going into the last length with Isaiah Miller owning the pool by swimming an outstanding race, passing his competitors to bring first place home for Fairhall School. At the end of the championship, Fairhall School achieved numerous top three placings with Sam Cameron-Dunn and Jack Western dominating the year 6 boys events while Tom Cameron-Dunn was named as Marlborough’s year 8 boys swim champion.

ITALIAN LUXURY: 39 glistening Ferrari’s parked at Highfield Estate last Friday, creating a head turning sight for many passing motorists.

A sight for wishful eyes By Celeste Lodewyk Five million dollars worth of Italian luxury passed through Blenheim last Friday with 39 Ferrari’s and their doting owners stopping for lunch at Highfield Estate. With models ranging from the 1964 250 GT Lusso right through to the very latest model - the 2010 Ferrari California the Ferrari Owners’ Club of New Zealand enjoyed their drive through Marlborough as they headed toward Nelson for the weekend.

Club chairman Russell Hall said the main initiative for the annual runs was to get together for a few ‘tall yarns’ as well as attend the club’s annual big dinner featuring awards and prizes. “This club is made up of really amazing people who are just great to be around, we are not all millionaires – just everyday people who have a passion for Ferrari’s,� he says. “We are all friends who like to get together and wind each other up.�

Assault and theft prominent

Couple narrowly escape watery plunge A visit to Blenheim turned topsyturvey when an Auckland couple failed to negotiate the right hand bend onto Symons Street, travelling straight ahead and passing under the chain to crash through the railing at the top of the steps of the amphitheatre. The rental vehicle came to a rest in a precarious 45 degree position at the bottom of steps, narrowly escaping landing in the Taylor River. Blenheim Police say the male driver

has had a medical incident causing him to black out, while his wife in the passenger seat attempted to pull on the handbrake and steer the vehicle but was unsuccessful. Both occupants did not sustain any injuries from the accident however damages to the rental car were extensive. Police are continuing their enquiries however if the cause of the accident is attributed to the man’s medical condition, charges are unlikely.

Wairau Valley Market Day This Saturday the Wairau Valley Market Day will be held at the Church car park, main road, Wairau Valley. Available will be an array of items at the market, including plants and produce, fresh farm eggs, locally

made jams and chutneys, handmade jewellery, organic soap and body care products, and much more! Come along or a cup of tea and home made cake and biscuits.

Sun readers have their say...

Do you think manners in our society are becoming less important?

Paula Charles Blenheim

Sarah Allen Blenheim

Sheryl Armstrong Blenheim

People are not as friendly as they used to be... Little mistakes get taken out of proportion!

People have become slack on them. It also depends if you are brought up to respect manners.

Manners taught at a young age helps. It is important to maintain that self esteem.

We do pretty well in Marlborough. Lots of people respect elderly and disabled.

Yes. Not many people around here have manners anymore.

Less important than they used to be. Younger ones are not respecting elders. It does not cost to say please and thank you!

What’s in a name? A brief history: Hope Drive With Mark Stevenson First National

Hope Drive is a relatively recent addition to the list of street names in Blenheim. However it is not, as might be expected, named after ex-mayor Gerald Hope. It is named for the Hopes of Hope farm and orchard, following council policy that any personal name will be discouraged unless it has a historical connection with the property being subdivided. The streets leading off Hope Drive are named for some of the children of the Hope family: Natalie Place, Teriece Place and Lester Place. This is also in line with policy guidelines, which suggest that where more than one road is being created in a sub-division, a common theme is recommended for the names. (The council defines a ‘drive’ as a main connecting road in a suburb, or a road with scenic attraction. A ‘place’ is a no exit road, with a turning circle at its blind end. It is longer than a close which serves a smaller number of homes than a place.)

Elections flawed Crime and lack of respect Dear Ed, The Marlborough Electric Power Trust elections have a serious flaw in its democracy. Businesses get a number of votes whereas the householder gets one vote. This rigs the election with a dominance by business. I suggest householder voters bear in mind, one does not have to vote for three required. Vote for one who you think will champion the interests of the ordinary householder. U. Bulgaria

Dear Ed, Your front page article of 3 March should be of concern to all. That, read in conjunction with your weekly Police reports suggests a disproportionate amount of criminal activity showing disrespect for property and people is being committed

by young people who, at the times reported, should be at home in bed! Does that also show disrespect for parents as well? Remember the old adage “Spare the rod and spoil the child?� Now look what we’ve got. WH Cox

“Trees bloody trees� Dear Ed, It is with interest I read in the Marlborough Express the council want trees cut back from the footpaths. I would suggest that Captain Hutcheson gets his own house in order. He has planted trees all over town on the grass verges. Many of these trees are obstructing the footpath; also the roots are lifting the seal.

I suppose Ratepayers can cut these trees back, and leave the cuttings for the Council to remove, or send a bill to the Council! What is good for the goose is good for the gander. Remember Councillors, you are the Ratepayers staff, so cool your bombastic approach. Ratepayer

Air NZ’s responsibility Dear Ed, All sympathy has to go to any child having to endure sickness. I presume Air NZ took those bookings and payments and yet no-where in your story were they mentioned. Surely it is their responsibility to address the problem of over loading, not the other passengers on the planewhether business men or not. Everyone on that plane had paid for a ticket which ensures them a seat and an expectation to get to their destina-

tion at that time. What if I gave up my seat and there wasn’t one available on the next flight? Would Air NZ pay for my accommodation and cover any differences in fares? If the plane was overbooked, which presumably is Air NZs’ fault; I would have expected Air NZ to have told someone that there was no room for them on the flight. Airline passenger

Pest plant control Dear Ed, Pest plants have a huge impact on our environment, as Tony Orman rightly points out (Feb 24). Both MDC and DOC put significant resources into control of pest plants throughout this district. The responsible approach is to target priority weed species and/or areas as identified in the MDC Regional Pest Management Strategy. Unfortunately, the necessary setting of priorities does mean no control for some species, at some sites. It is irresponsible and incorrect to suggest the weed problem can be

reversed with a “grubber, loppers and a mix of old diesel oil and Roundup� in the back of a vehicle – it requires far more resources than this. I can confirm though DOC staff often carry a saw for species such as wilding pines. I compliment the community-based weed control initiatives that have greatly added to district achievements. This joint approach is the only way forward. Phil Clerke Sounds Area Programme Manager Biodiversity Threats Department of Conservation

Bring on the mountain! Wine Marlborough’s marketing manager up for a challenge Marcus Pickens talks to Richard Miller news@blenheimsun.co.nz Two years ago Auckland city boy Marcus Pickens had little idea he would be standing on top of Marlborough’s highest peak, awestruck in equal measure by the awesome scenery and the journey that had brought him there. “Two years ago I was sitting behind a desk in Auckland and here I was now on Mount Tappy gazing out at some of the most amazing scenery in the world,� said Marcus, disbelievingly. “I thought wow, this is one of the reasons we are here.�

“Two years ago I was sitting behind a desk in Auckland and here I was now on Mount Tappy gazing out at some of the most amazing scenery in the world� He had never done any tramping before and “really surprised myself� by joining a mountain walking group and tackling six Marlborough peaks over 1500 metres with a group of friends. The 37-year–old Wine Marlborough marketing manager’s move from the Big Smoke with wife Sarah and adorable young sons Finn, four, and Charlie, two, to take up a job in “New Zealand’s largest and best wine region� was almost inevitable. With his strong commercial background, working in the wine

industry, he knew sooner or later he was destined to end up here. But what he did not count on was his transformation from city slicker to mountain hiker. “To be honest, when the challenge came through I was pretty nervous. I thought long and hard about it before committing myself.� But when he was standing on top of Tapuae-o-Uenuku which at 2,884 m is the highest peak outside the Southern Alps Marcus said it not only gave him time to reflect on how his life had changed but also a deeper understanding of the wine region he represents. “It gave me an insight into the topography of the region and a perspective I hadn’t appreciated before. I could see why there was a rain shadow on the Northern side of the Wairau Valley and all the subtleties of the landscape which I hadn’t appreciated before and which makes such a difference to the flavour and quality of the grapes we grow here.� Marcus admits that he arrived in Marlborough at one of the toughest and most challenging times for the wine industry. “I hit it square on,� he says with a grin. “I was able to bed myself in professionally no problem but of course the complexity of the situation changed almost as soon as I got here with an excess of grapes and wine out there.� But with characteristic optimism, Marcus says it was a big positive to be in on the changing situation right from the start. “It was really good to be here from the beginning of that very difficult period for Marlborough. It has made us evaluate and direct where our long-

term positioning needs to be and forced us to be right at the top of our game. It brings the best out of people when you have to fight for something you believe in.� He loves the diversity of his job and says it has really “grown� him professionally. “I feel at this moment that we probably need to see vintage numbers for 2010 before we can

really evaluate how far we are through the cycle. “After that we probably have at least another couple of challenging vintages – we certainly don’t want to see any growth in vintage production for the next two years and then we’ll be in a very good position.� He fell in love, not so much with the taste, but with the aroma of

wine at an early age. “Just the smell of wine is so intriguing and even before I went to university to study commerce I knew this was something I wanted to learn about. I never wanted to be a winemaker, it was always the commercial side of wine that interested me.�

Gifts for Conference

gifts, Marie enlisted the help of mother Joan who, she says ‘has an eye for fine detail’. “She has an amazing talent with jewellery and has been helping with the threading and weaving of the gifts and manages to do each piece with intricate detail.� “You really need time and patience for a big job like this which Joan has, she never gets bored or tired of doing it,� Marie says. With her delicate craft skills stemming from her childhood, Joan says she made a lot of clothes, jewellery, toys and crafts throughout the World War II and the depression, as many people could not afford to buy brand new. Many more beautiful jewellery pieces will be available at the Boese Pearls stand at the conference, with some made especially to match the gifts, Marie says.

Eighty-seven year old Joan Andrews may be retired but she certainly has not stopped doing what she loves. A woman of many talents Joan has spent the past seven months helping daughter Marie Boese make 1,200 beautiful gifts for the up and coming Women of Influence Conference this month. Marie alongside her husband Don own Boese Pearls, a locally owned jewellery design and manufacturing business, handcrafting one of a kind jewellery pieces from a variety of quality pearls and beads. For the conference Marie was contracted to make two different unique jewellery gifts - 600 of each to be exact, for each of the women attending though the finished products have been kept under wraps until the conference, she says. To handcraft the immense number of

VOLUNTEERS: Blenheim Lions Club members Stuart Tapp and Jim Thomas began their business deliveries of Marlborough’s 2010 phone book on Monday morning.

The new 2010 Marlborough phone book is headed your way. Around 40 Lions Club members have commenced deliveries of 18,500 phone books to both commercial and residential addresses throughout Blenheim. The volunteer deliverers began last Friday and will be ploughing their way through the stacks of phone books with this Sunday set as the target finish date. Blenheim Lions Club member and project convenor Dave Smith said the club had been involved with the project for several years, raising funds for the club. “We are involved in a number of projects throughout the year but this is one of our largest and all our members are involved in some shape or form.� With the number of phone books delivered ‘creeping up’ each year, Dave attributes it to the new housing and sub divisions throughout Blenheim as well as businesses requiring more.

Birthday makeover for boat

17

SITTING PRETTY: What better way to celebrate a 100th birthday than with a make-over and Peter Hart gave his boat Laura Jo just that, pictured just before going back into the water at Havelock Marina. Photo: Graham Brooks

By Cynthia Brooks She is older than the Titanic and narrowly missed being wrecked when a storm lashed the Magazine Bay Marina in Lyttleton a decade ago. For much of her life she worked as a fishing boat off the Oamaru Coast and now after an extensive facelift, the 100 year old Laura Jo looking prettier than she has in years and is all set to spend her retirement in a more leisurely fashion. Peter Hart of Okaramio has owned her for the last 10 years and decided to celebrate her 100th birthday by having her rotten bits removed and repaired and her paintwork redone. Last month, with her owner/skipper supervising proceedings, the 34 foot kauri boat was towed to the Havelock Marina launching ramp where Te Hora Marae kaumatua Elaine Wilson gave a blessing. This is the second time in recent years that the boat has undergone restoration. The first was back in mid 1990s when Roger Bamford of Moncks Bay bought the Laura, as she was then known, off Oamaru fisherman Dick Tangney and almost completely rebuilt her. Dick, now in his 90s was too frail to attend her relaunch last week. Roger Bamford spent hundreds of hours restoring the boat and converting her to a launch. Laura Jo was built as a fishing boat in 1909 by Port Chalmers boat builders Miller and Tunnage which still exist today. She has a karvelle plank kauri hull over southern beech ribs and keel and is powered by a 3LW Gardner which is a dream as far as fuel economy goes. “To bring her up here we steamed for 32 hours from Lyttleton to Havelock at 8 knots and used 120L of diesel,” Peter says proudly. On a typical family day out in the Pelorus Sound she might go through about 30L of diesel which at $1.10 a litre would be the envy of many boaties. Her latest facelift was executed by Lloyd Price of Sounds Shipwright Services whose passion for traditional wooden boats is evident. Lloyd grew up in Linkwater and with the Sounds as his near neighbour an affinity with boats. At one time he worked on the Murray River in Australia restoring paddle steamers some of them as old as 140 years. Boats of that vintage and of the Laura Jo’s were built with quality materials right from the start, he says, “Otherwise they would never have reached the ages they have.” “I enjoy working on them as I am continuing on with someone else’s good workmanship and because of their rib, plank and keel construction every piece of them, apart from the superstructure can be replaced,” he says.

An emotional journey The ups and downs of caring for someone with mental illness By Celeste Lodewyk Watching a loved one struggle with mental illness was no easy feat for Blenheim woman Judith Hyndman (pictured) who, for five years has been the supporting backbone for a family member grappling with depression. “It’s hard seeing your extended family and their children living normally and doing all the right things when every day you are dealing with the ups and downs of mental illness. “One day you think you are coping fine before you realise it’s never going to be the same again,� she sighs. The family member (who has chosen to remain anonymous) previously led a confident and outgoing life, flatting away from family with plans to work in television production. One day out of the blue Judith received a distressing phone call saying the family member was not coping and didn’t know what was wrong with her. “When I arrived I could see straight away she wasn’t well. It was as though everything shut down – she couldn’t make decisions or perform daily physical tasks, she shut down completely. “I immediately knew something was seriously wrong so I packed her up and took her home with me and made her a doctor’s appointment.� Fearing the worst Judith spent a whole day at the hospital with the family member and after many unresponsive tests doctors committed her to Hilmorton Hospital. It was then that Judith began her journey

“When I realised that I wasn’t coping with the situation I made contact with SF Marlborough who has made an immense difference in our lives.�

as a carer for a family member battling mental illness. Three weeks passed before they were able to return home and Judith has since continued to care for and support the family member. “It was a very long and hard journey,� Judith reflects. “It was the most devastating feeling and there were many times the tears would just flow uncontrollably. I initially thought she was going to die and I went through a grieving process - that’s how sick she was.� Judith managed to complete her studies in horticulture as well as additionally care for her sick husband who had suffered a heart attack. Despite the family’s suffering Judith says they eventually pulled through and is proud to say that despite the family member’s ongoing battle with mental illness, she is coping well with medication and now enjoys the independence of living in a flat co-joined to the family home. One message Judith wishes to express is that of hope. “When I realised that I myself wasn’t coping with the situation I made contact with SF Marlborough who has made an immense difference in our lives. “You don’t realise how much help you really need when you are in the carer’s position but they were always there for us when we needed someone – and that has given us hope!� One of the most important things Judith says is to remain supportive as a family of someone living with mental illness because

without that backing the road to recovery can take a lot longer. “It has been a long road mixed with tears, emotions and stress but at the end of the day it has been a journey to wellness for our family,� Judith smiles.
