Library plan driven out By Mary Anne Gill
The former Bunnings site in Cambridge has sold and will become a car yard. The site went out to tender last month and Waikato-based Ingham, one of New Zealand’s largest car dealers, bought it for an undisclosed sum. The company gazumped Waipā District Council by 24 hours. The council said in May last year it had no plans to buy it, but changed its mind. Dealer principal John Ingham, who took over Ōtorohanga Motors when it was a service centre in 1986 and built it into a multi-dealer operation, told The

News all going well “we would love to have a spade in the site this year.” “We’ve been looking to move into Cambridge for some time,” he said. “We’re looking at the long term with the purchase.” Ingham secured the entire site which comprises a 2000 square metre freehold section and two leasehold portions. The company planned to demolish the Bunnings building and replace it with something which would acknowledge its prominent position in the town

centre and the Cambridge character. “We’re full steam ahead. We’ve got architects working on plans as we speak.” Cambridge resident Martin Swan of DLA Architects in Hamilton is lead architect on the project. Ingham has dealerships in Te Awamutu, Taupo, Mount Maunganui, Hamilton, Napier, North Shore and Auckland. Australian-owned Bunnings closed its Cambridge and Te Awamutu stores, and five others throughout New Zealand in June 2020. In May last year, Waipā District Council purchased the hardware retailer’s premises in Te Awamutu for $2.05 million. The council will use the site to house Te Ara Wai, a museum to display Waipā and New Zealand history, with a focus on the New Zealand Land Wars. Chief executive Garry Dyet said the council received valuation advice, put in a bid but was unsuccessful. He said initially the price was deemed too high, but an offer was made after the value was “moderated”. “A new space for our Cambridge Library is part of our Long Term Plan. Council saw that the old Bunnings building was for sale and saw this as an opportunity for that facility.” We will continue to look for opportunities for the Cambridge library.

We’re so hot…
Karāpiro: where the mercury rose.
By Mary Anne Gill
Karāpiro was the hottest place in the country last month when the temperature gauge hit 34.7°C on January 4. Niwa meteorologist/forecaster Seth Carrier confirmed the area around the Cambridge lake was the national hot spot while also revealing Waipā temperatures for January were 1.5°C above average. The district’s mean temperature for the month was 19.8°C at Hamilton Airport which also recorded the district’s second driest January on record – the driest was in 1955 with only 6mm of rain. Farmers have welcomed Waitangi weekend’s rainfall which greened up paddocks and filled water tanks. Waikato Regional Council’s Tokanui – Farm Road and Puniu River stations near Te Awamutu recorded just over 61mm of rain while Niwa’s at Lake Karāpiro near Cambridge clocked 86.5mm and the MetService reported nearly 69mm at Hamilton Airport. But MetService warns another long dry spell for the North Island is on its way with “sweaty daytime temperatures in the high twenties or early thirties.” For the second year running, Niwa’s Waikeria station is out of order.

When you first approach Roto-o-Rangi Memorial Hall, two large, off-green doors will greet you, and then confuse you. You ponder how they could grant you passage into the timeless hall, as they are without a handle or any hint of an opening mechanism. Your eyes scout around as you try to find another way to enter, and then an elusive child-sized door of an equally off-green hue chastises you for not spotting it earlier. Its tiny silver keyhole and handle safeguard your entrance. The hall, 10kms southwest of Cambridge and 16kms east of Te Awamutu, was the rendezvous for community meetings, dances, dinners, clubs, church groups, and celebrations. Constructed in 1938 it cost a staggering £489, with the money raised by a local committee fundraiser. Some of its more notable groups were the Ping Pong and Indoor Bowls clubs. Champion bowlers are still celebrated on the walls of the hall today. Roto-o-Rangi School held its centennial celebrations there in 2004, and it was their main event hall for many years before they opened their current multipurpose room. To quote the hall’s secretary, Carmel Howarth, it has “a hell of a lot of history.” Long-time locals serve on the hall committee. Nick Dawson is chair, Jim

Gregan, currently a committee member, was the previous chair before he stood down in 2012. Will Forsythe is the hall’s treasurer and Carmel is its secretary. She celebrated her wedding reception in the hall in 1992 and started a dance class there in the same year. Her three daughters, Rhiannon, Nikita, and Astrid all attended Roto-o-Rangi School, which is just across the road from the hall. In 1993, Carmel was asked to attend the hall’s annual meeting and joined its
committee shortly after. Julie Epps is another long-time local deeply involved in the Cambridge community and has fond memories of the hall. She used to attend the dance school and her boys, Matthew and Braedon attended Roto-o-Rangi School as well. “The talent quest karaoke night for the adults was an eye-opener, with lots of dressed-up ‘celebrities’ belting out songs

I hope you had a good long weekend. For us, it involved several reports of burglary across town - not the sort of thing to which you want to come home. Sometimes it is the little things that make your house a target. A door accidentally left unlocked or a window latch on a ventilation setting is enough to give an opportunist an easy ‘in’ to your property. Please remember to double check your house security when you leave. Once in, the longer the thieves are able to stay in your house undetected, the more time they have to search through your rooms and steal. If a house alarm is installed, when triggered, it will draw attention to what is happening. This increases the likelihood that the offenders will scarper quickly and that neighbours or passers-by will notice and be Antiques to provide key identifying information Alys able t & Fine Ar about them.

bullying and so-called revenge porn. Online bullying can be via direct message (text, WhatsApp or Facebook messenger) or in a more public forum (a post on community Facebook pages). Online bullying is more than a one-off and is usually carried out with the intent to shame or embarrass someone, commonly spreading rumours and lies, sending an individual unwanted messages, hacking or impersonating someone online or creating fake profiles to make fun of someone. Revenge porn is when intimate photos or recordings are sent to a third party or made public without the knowledge or consent of the person/s involved often after a relationship break up (hence the name). These actions again are carried out with the intent to cause an individual embarrassment or harm. Online bullying can have significant emotional and psychological impacts on the victim. Depending on the nature of the online abuse, it may fall under the category of harmful digital communications making it a criminal offence. If you have been affected by some
form of digital harm that has or will cause you serious emotional distress, then you can also apply to the courts for a ‘harmful digital communications order’ to be issued on the perpetrator. This is a big topic so for further information about what to do if you or someone you know are being bullied, visit at www.netsafe.org.nz . More information on the harmful digital communications order is available at www.justice.govt.nz. As always, if you receive threats or your safety is at risk, call 111. I’ll finish with a quick word to parents and students who cycle to school. We continue to receive complaints about students using the pavements in Victoria Street as a high-speed cycle path. Remember that bicycles are not allowed on footpaths, especially so in the main street of town with many pedestrians around. Please use the cycle lanes provided and recommended cycle routes to get to and from school. Also, wear a helmet!

Buses to go on demand? By Mary Anne Gill
A new style bus service is under investigation for Cambridge suburbs like St Kilda and Norfolk Downs where residents are more than two kilometres away from an existing bus stop. Waikato Regional Council recently launched Flex in Hamilton. It is an on-demand ride-share night service to and from the central city using a 12-seater which operates for $2 on Fridays and Saturdays between 6pm and 4am anywhere in the city. During the day, the bus goes to and from Hamilton Airport and Hamilton Transport Centre. Waipā transport manager Bryan Hudson told the Cambridge Community Board last week the on-demand service in Cambridge was unlikely in the next five years unless the government made further announcements around emission reductions. “It does need to be done well because it is a big financial commitment to even start a trial.” The council is also keeping a close watch on Timaru where there is a daily on-demand public transport service trial underway. Passengers there order a vehicle directly from a smartphone app or through the contact centre. Smart scheduling technology allocates a vehicle, identifies a

nearby ‘virtual bus stop’ or an existing bus stop within a short walking distance for pick up and drop off, allowing for quick and efficient shared trips without inconvenient fixed routes and schedules. Chair Sue Milner said it would be great for Cambridge to provide a safe and sustainable transport strategy, but a lot of residents are “wedded to cars.” “We have a great chunk of Cambridge not covered by buses. You’re often walking and travelling two kilometres to get to a bus stop.” The on-demand service was one of many contained in the Waipā
Integrated Transport Strategy tabled at the meeting. The strategy also includes discussion around a Cambridge third bridge business case. Public consultation on the strategy began this week and runs for a month. Strategy planner Rachel Algar said the council was looking for feedback to the strategy’s overarching policy: “People and freight in Waipā have access to an integrated, safe, sustainable transport system that provides a range of travel choices.” Mike Montgomerie, who represents the rural population on the board, said his typical trip to
Cambridge was with a trailer so he could pick up supplies in town. When in town, he would also undertake other activities such as a visit to the lawyer, a bank or even grab a coffee. “It’s become noticeably harder for me to park truck and trailer in town. When you’re operating like that, you don’t have the options of walking and riding. Geez, it’s getting hard to do anything in Cambridge.” He will often park in Leamington and walk into town over Victoria Bridge. The board will use a workshop session to prepare its submission to the council by March 8.
Memory cabinets help lead the way
A community project with distinctly Cambridge roots is helping Resthaven on Burns residents feel more at home. Each resident living with dementia or memory loss has been gifted a handcrafted memory cabinet in which to display personal keepsakes, such as photographs, trophies and the like. The cabinet filled with their special momentos is attached to the wall by their room, making it easier for them to navigate the hallway and find the way back to their own room. Cambridge Resthaven general manager Rachel Jones said the cabinets are bringing joy to the men and women living at the complex. “Looking at their favourite keepsakes in the cabinet is a walk down memory lane, sparking conversations and reminiscing, and helping them recognise their room.” Materials and labour for the project has come from the community. The cabinets are made from local macrocarpa timber donated by Lorraine and Murray Hargreaves. Mrs
Hargreaves works in the diversional therapy team at Cambridge Resthaven, and the timber was harvested from trees that have been growing on the Hargreaves’ farm for more than 70 years. The Perspex front of the cabinets was donated by Opal Glass. The 20 cabinets were designed and built locally by Cambridge Menzshed members, with leader Dave Callaghan spending three months on the project. Mrs Jones said: “This has been an ambitious project and we want to thank all those who contributed. The finished cabinets look fantastic. They are providing enjoyment for our residents every day, and we are so grateful to all those who helped including the Hargreaves, Opal Glass, Dave Callaghan, Allen Cartwright, Ray Killip, the Cambridge Menzshed, Eric Hill, Friends of Resthaven, and the Resthaven Foundation.”

Fire chief Gone to the dogs backs siren By Mary Anne Gill
By Roy Pilott
For Waikato towns the sound of the fire siren calling volunteers has been part and parcel of life for decades. News columnists Peter Carr refers to it today in his column on Page 8, where he pays tribute to the legion of volunteers who can take a significant amount of credit for keeping the country ticking. He also suggests the fire siren has taken on a different significance in recent years – as a reminder to the public about their work. There are calls in some quarters for the Cambridge siren on top of the Town Hall to go – but the town’s fire chief Don Gerrand is firmly opposed to those suggestions. “I’m aware of some social media debate on it – but the alarm is still the main and most reliable call to firefighters,” he said. Firefighters get an alert via a pager, but he said the siren sounds earlier. People getting their booster shots against Covid were in the hall last weekend when the siren sounded. “Everyone inside and outside covered their ears and complained about the noise - it’s horrendous if you’re sat near it,” one person told the News. Invite people to write letters to the editor URE on the issue and there is some

School Showcase
Welcome to the new school year IB students shine The final results for the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma for our November 2021 graduates were released in January. This group of students were they 12th cohort of IB students to graduate from St Peter’s, and were the largest group so far, representing more than 20% of the Year 13 group. St Peter’s, Cambridge is proud to be the only school in the Central North Island to offer the IB Diploma as an alternative to NCEA. The Diploma was designed to develop inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people who help to create a better and more peaceful world, through intercultural understanding and respect. The St Peter’s 2021 IB graduates faced the challenges of the diploma with grace and a sense of personal responsibility.
Looking forward to 2022 Pictured L-R Head Boy Dom Hedley, Head Girl Alyssa Sherry-Middlemiss, Campus Principal Julie Small, Deputy Head Girl Amisha Sadani and Deputy Head Boy Lachie Dawe.
Max thrives at Outward Bound Year 13 student Max Hewson was fortunate to be selected from over sixty students to attend a sponsored Outward Bound Course during January. Opportunities were also made available to students to attend the Spirit of New Zealand sailing experience. St Peter’s parent Pip McCarroll has seen first hand the value these courses have on teenagers and made available the sponsorships late last year for current Year 11 or 12 students. A truly generous gesture that was well received by the students after a particularly difficult period. Max shares his experience with us here. “My 8-day journey on Outward Bound was packed with adventure and hundreds of unforgettable moments. It was great to meet the 12 other people who were in my group and as soon as the first days passed we quickly went from
complete strangers to lifelong friends. We could also spend some time away from home during the holidays and detach from technology, appreciating the environment around us. Each of the 8 days at Outward Bound was packed, leaving us little time to settle down or relax, this is because we were consistently pushed by our instructors to always be prepared and to live in the moment. Some key highlights of the trip were sailing across the beautiful Marlborough Sounds, tramping off track up difficult mountains and camping under the stars.
International Baccalaureate 2021 Results 40 students awarded IB Diploma. 34 average points of those who gained the IB Diploma. 2 points above the world average. 14% of St Peter’s students earned 40 or above. 98% awarded University Entrance.
Despite the emotional and mental exhaustion that they all faced as they embarked on this second year of the pandemic, these students found a way to keep moving forward. They were kind, and showed a deep appreciation for the support offered to them from teachers, leaders, coaches and family. They did not find the path they have chosen easy, but they did not give up, and each showed a maturity beyond their young years as they sought help when needed, and freely offered that help to each other as well. To say that we are proud and admire the strength these students have shown would be an understatement. Well done IB class of 2021.

Region's lakes on the brink By Benjamin Wilson and Roy Pilott
Regional and district councillors have been given an insight into the alarming state of Waipā peat lakes and were warned that without action, they will get worse. Regional councillor Andrew MacPherson accepted a challenge from Fish and Game manager David Klee, to bring councillors and staff to Lake Ngaroto on Tuesday to get an understanding of the ecological disaster, which claimed the lives of thousands of fish and birds last month. The gathering included Waipā major Jim Mylchreest, deputy Liz Stolwyk and chief executive Garry Dyet who said the region’s lakes were internationally significant and “real treasures”. Also present were Waipā councillor Lou Brown, Facilities Team Leader Brad Ward, Waikato River Authority’s Keri Neilson,
regional councillors Stu Kneebone, Jennifer Nickel and Angela Strange and Scientist Mathew Allan. David Klee told the News last week the lake was like an effluent pond, after penning an open letter to staff and councillors. He says councils have done good work and farmers have made efforts to improve water quality – but they have also been getting or giving the wrong messages about what needs to be done. He said this week repairing the damage at Ngaroto was an intergenerational project – and it underlined why, with 90 per cent of Waikato lakes “going backwards” it was time to draw up plans to protect them now. Liz Stolwyk, who used to regularly walk the 7km edge of the lake, told the group “you have to bring the community along on this journey.” She said to Klee “I hear your

challenge, it’s a good challenge.” Klee told the News the Healthy Rivers/Wai Ora project, described by the regional council as the bold first step in an 80-year journey to achieve rivers that have improved water quality and are safe for food gathering along their entire length did nothing for the lakes. Cyanobacterial blooms, fed by nitrogen run off, turned Ngaroto into a lake of death for wildlife, and Klee said but for heavy rain over recent days, the cycle was set to be

repeated last weekend. He believes the Emission Trading Scheme should encompass retiring agricultural land around lakes so they can revert to their natural state and assist in filtering run off. That would provide farmers with an incentive to help restore them. He told this week’s meeting that repairing Lake Ngaroto should at this stage be aimed at stopping the fact it was haemorrhaging. “This is what will happen to other lakes unless we take action now.”
The issue has highlighted the need to review the line between commercial and ecological needs. MacPherson told the News following the meeting he was mindful of the role agriculture has played in the country’s economy during the Covid pandemic. “We relied on farmers to keep going – we can’t afford to lock up all peat catchment areas,” he said. But he supported Mylchreest’s comments. The mayor proposed trying experimental methods to fix the lake. “How much damage can we do by trying something different?” the mayor asked. “At the end of the day, if we carry on managing the catchment the way that we are, then this will be the result,” Klee said. “Let’s be honest about that, and then we can have a discussion about what we can do and how we are going to pay for it.”

FAITH IN WAIPĀ
THE AGE OF REASON
Learning from our past…
All hail the volunteers
On Maungatautari Road, just before Lake Karāpiro Dam, a sign points southwest up the hillside. It reads, “Confiscation (aukati) line”. The Waikato Land Wars of the 1860’s, concluded with colonial forces arbitrarily seizing 1.2 million acres of prime land from Māori and this ‘Aukati Line’ enforced their dispossession, with armed patrols extending from the Firth of Thames across to Maungatautari. We’ve just commemorated Waitangi Day marking when, on February 6, 1840, representatives of the British Crown and over 500 Māori chiefs on behalf of their people, signed New Zealand’s founding documentthe Treaty of Waitangi. It’s unfathomable how within only 20 years of the Treaty of Waitangi being signed, that it became so blatantly dishonoured. Now, 182 years later, few New Zealanders have a clear idea of what brought the Treaty about, its purpose, its treacherous breaches and how we can adhere to it as the active document that it really is. As a matter of historical fact, the Christian missionary influence was instrumental in gathering support throughout Aotearoa for Māori rangatira to sign the Treaty. Their motivation was to protect the Māori people from the negative aspects of British colonialism - greedy settlers and unscrupulous traders who lacked understanding or interest in honouring Māori culture. The British government saw benefits in securing sovereignty over the islands of New Zealand and while motives were no doubt mixed, the Treaty indicates some level of noble intention to safeguard Māori interests. An example in Article 2 of Te Tiriti itself, is the guarantee that Māori will have
Over the recent dry and hot weeks many people have stayed home to lie low – or to await the return of students to school or a number of reasons. Doors and windows were wide open as we awaited the arrival of rain after many parched weeks. We were able to hear the abundant birdsong that abounds in treelined Cambridge. But the very nature of being home to listen has also brought with it the frequent and repeated wailing of the siren that sits atop the Town Hall. It’s an item very reminiscent of my young childhood in an extremely heavily bombed city - where the sound was to be feared. But at least gave us the opportunity to run for the concrete shelter in the garden next door. The unit here in Cambridge that summons the hard-working fire brigade is, I understand, actually activated in Auckland. I further understand that all the fire officers are supplied with technical communications units that not only make them aware of why they are being summoned but also the alleged cause of the call and the geographic position of the sad event. No folks – the real reason for that siren still being sounded in 2022 is to make people continually aware that there are many fine people who volunteer for the fire service and are willing to risk life and limb to provide a life-saving service wherever it may be. And much of it to sort out the aftermath of carnage on the roads. Coupled with these are the fine support activities of the Police and St John who, too, are dragged into these scenes at often very anti-social hours and you have a picture of a wonderful group of women and men who provide first-responder activities.
By Murray Smith, Senior Leader, Bridges Church
“unqualified exercise of their chieftainship over their lands, villages and all their treasures”. The Treaty connects us to history - from its signing in 1840, to subsequent multiple broken promises by self-entitled pakeha dishonouring Māori, helping themselves to land and other resources, ignoring rights as pledged. The Treaty anchors us in what was promised. The redress and making good of those breaches offers a kind of hope and belief that new principles generated over the last decade or two, hopefully points to a future of bi-cultural, multicultural mutuality and equality. Seeking to understand Te Tiriti o Waitangi should be ongoing. Essentially, most of those Christian pioneer missionaries cared enough to try and ‘get it’… at least to a reasonable degree. Their relationship and credibility with Māori stemmed from mutual respect and honour… values inherent in the Treaty. Its overarching intent remains, that Māori, together with anyone irrespective of their nationality, who have come to make New Zealand home, find themselves as tangata whenua - people of the land. I am committed to Te Tiriti o Waitangi and to working out whatever it might mean to be a pakeha partner in the Treaty process, under God, with Māori and each and every other person who sees themselves now as tangata whenua. Our national anthem expresses, “God of nations at thy feet” - a diverse people, but nonetheless one nation united under God… “men of every creed and race gathered here before thy face asking thee to bless this place…” God defend New Zealand.
By Peter Carr
The reason for my penning of this subject this week is due to the fact that the noisy and obtrusive roof-top siren has been activated during January and February for what appears to be a huge number of times. It gives me an opportunity to acknowledge those who volunteer and risk their lives for the citizens of our fine town. But let us take the volunteer aspect wider. The word ‘volunteer’ allegedly comes from the French word volontaire. Technically meaning ‘voluntary’. I never cease to be amazed at how many people give freely of their personal time to support a huge number of organisations in New Zealand. They are the true heroes of our community. Official statistics inform that over 21 per cent of the nation volunteers in some form. A value to the country of $4 billion annually recognising 150 million hours of formal volunteer labour. Sadly, the percentage of the population who do volunteer has been declining the latest (2015) statistics indicating a five per cent drop in 12 years. The premium age group for volunteers appears to be 45-64. The activities of a large number of New Zealand organisations would cease without their volunteer base. So a salute to those fine people, most of whom would wish to be nameless as they do not seek recognition. Humble, disciplined, caring and seriously worthwhile citizens. Good on you all.

Library loaded
Cambridge’s Little Library red phone box is struggling with the weight of too many books and according to Cambridge Community Board chair Sue Milner has become a health and safety hazard. Milner has asked the public not to put books on the top of the shelves when the rest of the Little Library, in Empire St, is full. “We have had a tidy up of the shelves and were able to add some of the recently donated books, which were in very good condition,” she said. Donated books need to be intact, have their covers and all their pages, be clean and have no browning edges. “As Little Library is used by all members of the community, we ask for no X-rated books.” Little Libraries are community book exchanges where readers are invited to take and return, or replace books. If you have books to donate and the Little Library is full, consider donating to an Op Shop or Rotary’s Bookarama, “but only if they are in good saleable condition” and drop them in during operating hours. Many people have
donated textbooks which have limited interest. “Please find another way of disposing of them, and that does not mean just leaving them on the off chance that we will dispose of them, and that probably applies to Op Shops and Bookarama as well.”
Otherwise put them in the council-provided paper and plastic recycling bin. “On the plus side, we have had some great books come through the Little Library, please enjoy them and when you have finished with them return them for someone else to enjoy,” said Milner.

and a very believable Mr Bean lookalike as one of the judges,” she recalled. Carmel also recounted one of the hall’s New Year’s Eve parties, where she and her husband Steve dressed up as Cyndi Lauper and Peter Garrett, shaven head and all. “We have had some real cracking dos down here,” she said. According to Carmel, the hall does not see the same variety of events as it used to, but it is still regularly used. Presently, the dance school still uses the hall for its examinations, but its classes are now taught at Cambridge High School. Rowers stay at the hall during rowing season. The Roto-o-Rangi school uses it for its end-of-year ceremonies. Weddings and birthdays are regularly booked. And until recently, a church group attended the hall every weekend. Carmel and her husband Steve own a maintenance business and have cared for the hall for over 20 years. Before Christmas, she spent five days tending to the hall and its gardens and Steve recently replaced spouting and repainted parts of the building’s exterior. They are constantly thinking of what to work on next. Currently, a shower is on the agenda, so that the hall can be more versatile. As well as removing barbed wire from a neighbouring paddock, more gardening, and more painting. The hall is not funded through rates though, it is funded by community donations, which the committee asks for in the form of an annual levy. Carmel says that more community support would allow the committee to better care for the hall. Last month, thieves stole spouting in the hopes of finding copper, exacerbating the need for an increase in community support. “It is a very cool hall, I just hope that it is here a long time and people look after it,” she said.

In response to your February 3 question: is Facebook an appropriate platform for Government departments to communicate with the public?.. Facebook’s underlying methodology of “Friending,” “Unfriending,” “Liking,” “Unliking,” etcetera is schoolyard politics. Compliance is required, “Or else...” Blackmail, bullying and badmouthing are the natural consequences of Facebook’s setup. Emotional criteria are not a source of truth by any measure and abhorrent to anyone seeking facts. Any “news” reported on that platform deserves parentheses, denoting it to be opinion rather than balanced reporting. The use of that medium by Government sources indicates how low the incumbent regime has stooped in their quest to control public opinion. Traditional media outlets have lost credibility by bowing to political pressure to report only the “official” version of events and have themselves to blame if the public loses interest in, “Same old, same old,” dressed up as new. News is not a commodity to be massaged into “acceptable” shape and drip-fed to support a political agenda. The word for that is propaganda. Nick Empson Pirongia

NO PLANET B
Clearer by the litre By Peter Matthews
I am forever stowing my glasses on top of my head when I need to look at something which is further away than my computer screen. Often, if that thing is the television, I can then be caught with one pair of glasses on my nose and another on the top of my head. In fact it is not unusual, at that point, for me actually to be looking for my glasses. Such are the challenges of having lived long enough for my eyesight to give up and now for the short-term memory to be on the way out as well. Or so it seems sometimes. What was I saying? Oh that’s right, glasses: One of the drawbacks of using a modicum of hair product (in an attempt to make myself look more attractive to I don’t know whom) is that as I flip the stowed glasses from the top of my head down over my eyes and back again, my view takes on a progressively hazy blur which, if I hadn’t learned otherwise, I might mistake for further evidence of advancing years. The hair goop gets on the glass and eventually, when I can see hardly anything at all I reach for the cleaning wipes. The most recent of these occasions has given me pause for thought. Having restored my vision I glanced at the packet from which I had taken the wipe and it occurred to me that from an environmental point of view this is not such a great idea. These things are individually packaged in printed silver foil. There are a couple of optimistic claims as to the efficacy of the wipes on the brightly coloured front of the packet, and a mass of minute text on the back. What, I wondered is the primary ingredient of such a wondrous product?

So, employing a trick I learned some years ago from my Dad I put my TV glasses on, over the top of my reading glasses, and was able to make out the Lilliputian print which revealed to me that the main ingredient was, as I had begun to suspect, isopropyl alcohol. The rest of the tiny print was devoted to uses to which the wipes could be put, directions for how to do it, including the words “Open pack and remove wipe” - I kid you not. And then there was a very long list of warnings about what one should not do with them, the main one being not to use them near an open flame. Anyway, I’ve got a litre of isopropyl alcohol in my garage. A drop of that on a square of loo roll, followed by a quick polish with my shirt tail gives an excellent result. Given that there are about 20,000 thousand drops in a litre (I searched it on the internet), I reckon it would be a lot kinder to the planet if those of us who wear glasses resolve to use the latter method to clean them.

The Doc 0800 362 529 www.doctorlawn.co.nz
Amohia, Waikato’s community isolation and quarantine facility, has moved from Hamilton into the Waipā district. A ceremony at Hamilton Airport’s Jet Park Hotel last week rededicated the mauri (life force) of Amohia. Amohia is available for individuals who have tested positive for Covid-19 and who are unable to self-isolate at home or find suitable alternative accommodation. It was previously at Distinction Hotel
in Hamilton which transitioned from a managed isolation facility in October to a community isolation quarantine facility. Kīngi Tūheitia endorsed the name Amohia and it is drawn from his tongikura: “Amohia ake te ora o te iwi, ka puta ki te wheiao” – to protect the wellbeing of our people is paramount. Staff from the Jet Park Hotel, Waikato District Health Board and the Defence Force were on hand for the ceremony led by the DHB’s cultural advisor Ikimoke TamakiTakerei.

Baker sets retirement day
Trainer Murray Baker has announced his retirement at 75 – 22 years after moving to Cambridge from Woodville. “When Murray Baker confided to a few friends last spring that he was planning to retire from training after the Sydney autumn carnival, most of us gave it little thought … most of us had heard the “I think I’ll give it away soon” talk before,” long-time Melbourne racing journalist and friend of Murray Baker’s, Danny Power wrote in a tribute to him. “Even son Bjorn, now an established top-five trainer in Sydney, scoffed at the suggestion.” Murray Baker, 75, and recovering from a knee replacement that “hasn’t worked that well” confirmed his decision to retire with an email to his owners, past and present. I wish to advise you that I am retiring on the 30th April 2022,” he wrote. “It has been a long and enjoyable road since I started with Harry Greene at the old Greenmeadows Napier Track in 1958… “Andrew Forsman will take over training in his own right on the 1st May 2022 with a wealth of experience behind him having worked for and with me over the past 18 years. I am sure you will support him as you have supported me over the years.” What that retirement letter didn’t tell is the story of a young “town” boy from Napier with a talent for cricket and no horse experience. After school he potted around the stables of trainer Harry Greene before taking a part-time job in 1958. Soon after he was legged aboard his first horse.
It was Greene’s horsemanship and interest in his young employee that sparked an urge in Baker not to follow his father into the corporate world of business, but to take a path with thoroughbreds that has led him into New Zealand Racing’s Hall of Fame, a record-breaking trainer on both sides of the Tasman and the tag of “racing legend”, Power wrote. Baker’s 22 Group One wins (including those in partnership with Andrew Forsman and Bjorn) in Australia is the most by a New Zealand-based trainer. Baker’s biggest thrills in racing come from his regular sojourns to Australia, which began in the mid-1980s. “Winning five Australian derbies in Sydney and finishing second twice is probably my greatest achievement,” he said when reflecting on his career. “Not winning a Melbourne Cup was one regret, although in my time the race changed a lot, it became more international and a lot harder for a New Zealand trainer, or even an Aussie, to win.” Baker admits it is doubtful he would be retiring if there wasn’t someone capable to hand the reins to. “Andrew has been dealing with the owners and attending the races for the stable for a while now, so I don’t see the transition being a problem. He’s learned a lot, come a long way, and I hope something has rubbed off from me in the way he trains.” Baker trained his first winner in 1978 from stables in Woodville where legendary trainers Eric Ropiha and Noel Eales were the biggest influence

on him. However, the most important progression in his career came when he switched from Woodville to Cambridge in 2000. The move gave him access to better horses, especially sourced from the local studs, and a broader church of owners. The list of outstanding horses to race for Baker is a Who’s Who of New Zealand racing, headed by Dundeel, who is now a leading stallion, and followed by The Phantom, Eagle Eye, Dowry, Prized Gem, Nom du Jeu, Harris Tweed, Lion Tamer, Mongolian Khan, Turn Me Loose, Jon Snow, Bonneval, The Chosen One, and Quick Thinker. Baker has indicated a move to Napier could be on the cards… “getting a house with a nice ocean view could be on the cards”.
Bowling young guns show potential
Jessie Russell and Taylor Horn look set for a great bowling future. The young Central Bowling Club, Cambridge, duo lost 16-15 in the semi-final to the eventual winners of the men’s pairs at last month’s nationals held in Christchurch. Club spokesperson Ray Rainsford said the public usually associated lawn bowls with the older set in the community. “Not at our club. We encourage the young people to come along for a roll up,” he said. Success at the nationals in the club’s 75th jubilee year was the icing on the cake for the season. A contingent of bowlers, which included Horn, Russell, Gary Cotter and Lisa Mundell attended. Cotter and Horn qualified for post section play in the singles while Cotter combined with Franklin Lim to progress to round 16 in section play where the legendary Gary Lawson and Tony Grantham beat them. Mundell competed in the women’s singles and pairs and her experience of national bowls will hold her in good stead in future years.

Cambridge, Te Awamutu win big
By Mary Anne Gill
Chris Swanson continued his record-breaking season with the bat as he plundered 81 from 46 balls in less than an hour as Cambridge demolished Ōtorohanga by 259 runs on Saturday. His innings at Victoria Square in round two of the Waikato Valley Champions Trophy included five sixes and seven fours - some shots coming perilously close to cars parked at the southern end of the square, and one breaking a car windscreen. Aashu Benipal finally bowled him in the 39th over. Cambridge was 300 for four at that point with another 10 overs to bat and Daniel Coles, who had shared in a 117-run partnership with Swanson, still at the crease. Coles went on to score 56 and the lower end chipped in to take Cambridge to a massive 422 all out.
Cambridge batsman Daniel Coles clips the ball to square leg watched by Ōtorohanga wicketkeeper Bennet Groube.
Cambridge won the toss earlier in the day and elected to bat on a wicket which has produced plenty of runs all season. In reply, Ōtorohanga gave the chase a good nudge early on but when captain and opener Leighton Parsons fell for 81 off the bowling of Bede Higgens, the
southerners were struggling at 152-5. The next five wickets fell cheaply with only 11 more runs added leaving Ōtorohanga all out for 163 runs in 37.5 overs. Higgens picked up 5-29 making it a great day with the bat and ball for Cambridge.
Te Awamutu Sports’ Blue Turtles were just as ruthless as they bowled St Peter’s School, Cambridge out for 52 runs at the Kihikihi Domain. Earlier Te Awamutu, who won the toss and elected to bat, was all out for in 34.4 overs for 215. Top scorer was opener Brandon Weal who hit three sixes and 12 fours
in his 92. The best of the St Peter’s bowlers was Sam Powles with four for 48. St Peter’s got off to the worst possible start with Xavier Bell out first ball to Kristian Clarke. The school only lasted 22 overs with Curtly Harper causing batsmen all sorts of
problems with his right arm medium pacers on his way to five for 16. Cambridge and Te Awamutu are unbeaten, but Cambridge leads the table on net run rate courtesy of Saturday’s massive score with St Peter’s School yet to get any points on the table after two losses. Cambridge will be back on Victoria Square this Saturday playing Morrinsville-Piako in the third round while St Peter’s School gets a crack at Ōtorohanga on the school’s grass wicket and Te Awamutu Sports play St Paul’s Collegiate at Kihikihi Domain.

with Jan Bilton
Meatless meals Meatless Mondays were first introduced by the US Food Administration during World War I because meat and other staple food items were being exhausted. Nearly 13 million families signed on. The campaign was continued during World War II by President Roosevelt and then by President Harry Truman in post-war restoration efforts. Meatless Mondays have become a way of life. And it’s not only those who already opt for meat-free menus for health, religious or ethical issues, but for those who enjoy their veggies. Today, spaghetti, stir-fries, stews, soups, barbecues, salads, burritos, chilis, curries, lasagne, kebabs, burgers, tacos, bagels and risotto can be delicious meatless everyday options. Pasta’s popularity has soared in the last 20 years. Boiled, drained and combined with a quality commercially-prepared sauce plus a few of your own additions such as diced capsicums, olives, feta cheese and mushrooms — dinner can be on the table in 20 minutes. BOMBAY CRUST-FREE VEGETABLE QUICHE Can be cooked ahead and reheated. Seed the chilli if preferred. 400g small new potatoes eg perlas 200g baby spinach 1 tablespoon canola oil 1 onion, halved and thinly sliced 2 cloves garlic, crushed 1 teaspoon each: ground coriander, cumin, turmeric 1 green chilli, diced 3 large tomatoes, roughly chopped salt and pepper to taste
4 large eggs 3/4 cup each: cream, milk Slice the potatoes into 5mm-thick rounds. Boil until just tender. Drain and leave to steam-dry. Rinse the spinach then microwave until limp. Preheat the oven to 160°C. Lightly oil a 26cm flan dish about 5cm deep. Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan. Sauté the onion until softened. Stir in the garlic, spices, chilli and cook for 1 minute. Add the tomatoes and spinach. Season. Cook for 3 minutes. Lightly beat the eggs, cream and milk together. Season. Place a layer of potatoes on the base of the flan dish. Sprinkle with half the spice mixture. Repeat the layers. Pour the egg combo over the top. Use a fork to lift the veggies to ensure the egg mixture runs through them. Bake for about 50 minutes until the egg in the centre is just set. Stand for 5 minutes before serving. Serves 4-5.
