We’re jam-packed By Mary Anne Gill

Grid-locked Cambridge roundabouts and bridges during peak hours are proof Waipā’s draft transportation strategy has drawn seriously flawed conclusions. Cambridge Chamber of Commerce chief executive Kelly Bouzaid and Waipā Cambridge ward representative Roger Gordon say they are worried there is not enough time for feedback and the data around growth projections was too questionable to be relied upon. Their comments came in the same week St Peter’s School announced it would create hundreds of residential sections between the Velodrome and Te Awa Retirement Village. (See story page 3). “This transport strategy is the biggest thing facing Cambridge,” said Gordon. “The strategy doesn’t address the congestion we are seeing now. We have three roads going in and three roads going out with no alternative. “What’s going to happen in the next 15 years, 20 years, 25 years? The strategy doesn’t explore that.” Developers were reading the market and concluding the demand for sections in Cambridge was now, not in five years. When the Waikato Expressway Hamilton section opens soon, cutting 20 minutes off a trip to and from Auckland, more pressure would come on, he said. “We’ve got another lever now getting pulled to keep the market going in Cambridge.” The strategy recommends a further detailed study of the Cambridge arterial routes and

bridges to examine likely issues. But Gordon says those issues have already arrived. The need for a third bridge was obvious and given its location would “probably” be in the area where St Peter’s was developing its sections, the council better get a move on securing a site, he said. Gordon, who recently returned from two months in the UK, spent two weeks in MIQ poring over the strategy. “You can’t just talk about urban Cambridge, which is 20,000 people. You’ve got to talk about the areas outside the old urban boundaries.”

Places like Hamilton Road, Kaipaki, Hautapu, Pukerimu and St Kilda. “When you add those in, you’re talking about 28,000-30,000 plus people. Our development now is outside urban Cambridge and you’re forcing all traffic into those two roundabouts and onto those two bridges.” Traffic on the stretch of road between St Andrew’s Church and the Town Hall was already greater than what it was when it was part of State Highway One before the Waikato Expressway opened in 2015, said Gordon.

“It is close to being at capacity and the capacity of that stretch of road is constricted by the fact you have a roundabout at either end.” The Chamber of Commerce was instrumental in getting the consultation period extended a fortnight until 5pm on Tuesday March 22. But like Gordon, Bouzaid said she is worried the strategy is already out of date. “Our businesses have got so much to be thinking about and they just didn’t have time to make a submission. This gives us some time to get in front of the people. “There are shortfalls (in it) and

questions we have. “It is using data which has proven inaccurate in the past and we want to address that.” Significant employers like businesses under construction in Titanium Park adjacent to Hamilton Airport had not been considered, she said. The draft strategy replaces the 2010 Waipā Integrated Transport Strategy and will be reviewed every five years. Submissions can be made on the council’s website or at council offices.

Seven of the 51 fatal car accidents in Waikato last year happened on Waipā roads, a report to Waikato Regional Council’s Transport committee has revealed this week. Of the eight people who died, seven were male drivers aged between 24 and 79 and one was a female passenger aged 54. Three crashes were in Te Awamutu and the others were in Ōhaupō, Karāpiro, Pirongia and Rukuhia. Two fatal crashes in the Waikato district and one in Hamilton were close to the Waipā boundary. Those who died were a 67-year-old male driver in Tamahere, a 34-year-old male driver in Newstead and a 70-year-old female driver in Rukuhia. There has already been another fatality this year – at Parawera where a car driven by a 52-year-old male hit a power pole on Arapuni Road. New Zealand’s death toll last year was 320 with Waikato accounting for 16 per cent of those putting the region in second place behind Auckland. Transport Policy and Programmes team leader Nigel King, the author of the report, told the council while the number of Waikato accidents was down on previous years, the region was still over-represented in national road safety statistics. The numbers may be higher because the council relies on receiving incident reports. There may be a delay because some investigations were still active, he said.

Letters… Piarere plan Transit New Zealand only needs to turn the intersection from Tauranga into a “Y” for Tauranga traffic heading north and south and have a fly over for the SH1 traffic heading south. This does not need the big area using the roundabout that is planned, and to have traffic banking up at peak times. This also allows for the expressway to be connected to the north side of the fly over in the future. This is the time to build the fly over, not in 30 years’ time… and at what cost then? By then Transit New Zealand will say their roundabout is past its use by date, if not sooner. Come on locals, let’s get Transit New Zealand on a mind set to improve traffic flow with a fly over at Piarere, instead of jamming it up with a roundabout. What is it going to be like when traffic has to slow down from 100 or 110km… when a fly over will keep it moving? John Hansen. Cambridge Cats and dogs Cats enjoy prowling and mostly are great killing creatures. This is evidenced in my own garden by the very reduced bird life which has occurred currently. Is it time for the council and residents to begin a korero on responsible cat ownership? This needs to include ownership details, cat identification, microchip number plus the requirement that they

are kept within their household from early evening. It would be helpful if each cat was required to wear a collar with a bell and registration tag. This would enable wild cats to be caught and safely removed. It would be great to get this discussion underway again. It would support the wonderful work being done at Maungatautari and by Predator Free Cambridge which is enhancing the bird life in the area and thus not have it lost again by local cats. B Belcher Leamington Transport plan Waipā wants feedback on their transport system. Look at the housing they are allowing, 300ha at Cambridge is the latest in subdivisions of this size. This is to promote and publicise Waipā as a place to come to live as the housing is available and they have the gall to say the housing is needed. They have created chaos on the roads in Cambridge and say another bridge is needed. No, they created this mess, live with it and this is part of their integrated transport system, to drive cars off the roads. A total of $145million to be spent on bike trails, not roads. These councillors are pushing for an Auckland type area with all the towns and villages being an integrated area no separation of these places. Do you want to live like Auckland?

On the beat with Senior Constable DEB THURGOOD A week in my life I want to start with a couple of “Thank You” messages this week. On Monday, a man walked off from one of our local rest homes and was reported missing. He was seen a couple of kilometres away by a member of the public who was out for a run. After a short conversation, the good Samaritan realised that the man was some way from where he actually wanted to go and was concerned that he was sitting in the heat. He decided to run back home, got his personal vehicle and a bottle of water for the man and returned to pick him up. He then brought him straight to the Police station where I was able to confirm his identity and take him safely home. A great outcome. My second thank you is to the Selwyn Centre for inviting me to speak at their morning tea. I enjoyed being able to talk to you about my role. Following on from my talk at Selwyn Centre, I also wanted to also give you a

snapshot of other types of jobs that the team have dealt with in the last week. We regularly attend family harm incidents, and the last week has been no exception. Calls for service ranged from verbal arguments through to serious assaults. Some of the latter resulted in prosecutions. In many cases these were reported by neighbours rather than the people involved themselves – this is something I support as it is often a long slow process for a person to feel able to leave an abusive relationship and the more support and ‘eyes on’ to the situation we have, the more likely we are to reach a positive outcome for the family. We had several reports of theft – shoplifting and petrol drive offs, plus a few burglaries including a rural one in Fencourt Road. When a quick report was made (and with further community information), we were successful in identifying and locating a person who presented a counterfeit $50 note last week.

Our strategic traffic and highway patrol staff continued to monitor driver behaviour to reduce road trauma. One driver was found to be driving when very much under the influence of drugs. Another car was recorded travelling at 164km/hr in a 100km zone at Karāpiro. When stopped, it transpired that the same driver had been caught doing 145km/hr in 100km zone just last year, so clearly hadn’t learnt his lesson. The risk to himself and other motorists was significant at such speeds. Both incidents resulted in toots of support to the officer from other motorists and the driver’s licence being suspended on the spot. If you see something that requires our immediate attendance, especially where harm to person or property is happening or imminent, keep on dialling 111. If you discover a crime that has happened with some time delay, call 105.

Random order

Candidates’ names in voting documents for the Waipā District Council elections later this year will be published in a random order rather than alphabetical. The council made the decision this week on the recommendation of deputy electoral officer Jo Gread who said it would ensure there was no advantage or disadvantage to any particular candidate. Nominations open on July 15 and close on August 12, the electoral roll closes on August 26, voting papers will be sent out from September 16 and voting closes at noon on October 8.

Trees coming down

Waipā District Council is removing two large trees in Cambridge tomorrow (Friday) but their removal has nothing to do with the recent storms. A dying Lombardy poplar on the corner of Queen and Hall Streets and a dead chestnut tree at the top of Lake Te Koo Utu, behind Lakewood will be taken down by Treescape, council’s contractor. A section of Queen Street will be closed off for the duration of the tree removal, with alternative routes on Alpha and Grey Street.

Project approved

Approval has been given for the construction of an education centre at Sanctuary Mountain Maungatautari. “It is very exciting news. After five years of working with our partners, it is amazing to see this wonderful vision finally becoming a reality,” said Sanctuary Mountain Maungatautari chief, Phil Lyons.

More land for homes By Mary Anne Gill

Hundreds of new sections west of Cambridge and overlooking the Waikato River will go onto the market next year when St Peter’s School converts 20 per cent of its dairy farm into a residential subdivision. The 32ha between Te Awa Lifecare and the Velodrome is in Waipā District Council’s C3 Growth Cell but was not expected to come onstream for several years. But under a joint venture deal between St Peter’s and developer 3Ms of Cambridge the first sections should come to market mid next year. Proceeds from the section sales will go into an intergenerational endowment fund designed to ensure the school’s long term financial independence. Scottish millionaire Arthur Broadhurst founded the school in 1936 after he purchased 40ha of the Gwynnelands Estate for a school campus and a farm. Over the years the dairy farm

expanded and at one point was 186ha with about 320 cows. The school campus is now on 50ha while Owl Farm, a demonstration dairy farm joint venture with Lincoln University, is on 170ha. The residential subdivision will take 32ha of that. “We’ve structured the joint venture with 3Ms to see returns coming into the endowment fund over many years,” St Peter’s, Cambridge chair John Macaskill-Smith said. “With careful investment, over coming decades the endowment fund should grow into a substantial and diversified investment portfolio, making it one of the most significant school endowment funds in New Zealand,” said MacaskillSmith. According to Companies Office records, 3Ms of Cambridge directors are Michael Crawford, Mitchell Plaw, Matthew Smith and Philip Smith. The shareholders are

It activated Waipā’s C2 growth cell and will include 212 new houses, a primary school, retirement village, destination playground,

commercial centre and supermarket. Mackaskill-Smith said the school found the ideal partner in 3Ms. “3Ms has given us full confidence the final development will preserve the land’s rural character, which is important to our alumni, students, staff and community. “This local partnership not only allows St Peter’s to establish this historic

endowment fund, it also creates multiple community benefits including muchOVERVIEW PLAN needed housing, jobs and establishment of community spaces and facilities,” said Macaskill-Smith. The school was working with mana whenua - Ngāti Koroki Kahukura and Ngāti Hauā - during the planning phase of the project and would maintain a close relationship with them through to development.

Protests: view from the inside By Mary Anne Gill

A Cambridge school teacher who lost her job when she refused to get a Covid-19 vaccination is in Wellington as part of the Parliament protest action. Rachel Eriksen, who taught at Newstead School but left when the Government brought in mandatory vaccinations last year for certain roles, arrived in Wellington on February 11 with her partner and their sons. Speaking to The News last weekend before

an escalation of clashes with police, she said the protest action was “really powerful and heartwarming.” It was like a real community with everybody pitching in to help each other. “The people down here are just everyday Kiwis; they’re all ages from 85 years to young babies.” Among the protesters were other teachers, nurses, police and army personnel plus “hundreds” of others from Cambridge, she said. Leaving teaching was the hardest thing she had

A Royal New Zealand Air Force Hercules was seen in Waipā skies this week. The No. 40 Squadron Hercules mcrew carried out low-flying g training around Waikato on Monday afternoon. The RNZAF has operated five C-130 Hercules aircraft since the 1960s, but from 2024 they will start to be replaced by the new C-130J-30 Super Hercules.

Protesters took to the Cambridge town centre last week and positioned themselves at the busiest roundabout to urge motorists to beep their support.

to do. “It’s torn me apart. We have a shortage of teachers and they’re sacking them. It’s all very, very sad.” Eriksen, who has started a children’s library at her Hautapu home for those unable to go to Waipā District Council’s Cambridge library, said her sons had the measles, mumps and rubella vaccination when they were young because the vaccination was extensively tested and approved. She had no intention of getting the Covid vaccination until safety data was published. “I do believe the (Covid) vaccination is for the vulnerable and the elderly but it’s wrong to be vaccinating perfectly healthy people.” Eriksen said she was like most New Zealanders two years ago when the pandemic started. “We were all supportive because we went into panic mode.” But the Government-imposed mandates introduced last year resulted in an increased mistrust of Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern and her government, conflict, social unrest and pitted friends and families against each other, she said. It led to Eriksen losing her job. “She (Jacinda Ardern) has divided our country. People should be questioning the science and answering (more) questions,” said Eriksen.

Family safety Rotary scoops national award police ‘priority’ By Mary Anne Gill

Family harm incidents were up in Cambridge – but down in Te Awamutu last year. A review of Waipā data indicates there was a three percent increase in family harm reported in Cambridge – 509 incidents reported in 2021 compared to 494 in 2020. In Te Awamutu, there was a nine percent reduction – 844 in 2021 and 925 in 2020. Dealing with family harm incidents is a priority for police in the Waikato West policing, area which encompasses the Waipā District, Waikato West Area commander inspector Will Loughrin told The News. “Reducing the number and impact of family harm episodes in our local community, along with our partner agencies, is a key focus for us.” Nationally, there continues to be an increase in calls to police for family harm related matters. Despite the 2021 figures, police say family violence investigations, per 10,000 people, show Cambridge below the national average

of 337.2 at 237.9 and Te Awamutu well above it at 632.2. “Any rise in numbers of family harm reports could reflect a number of things, including an increased willingness by victims, whānau and witnesses to call police,” Loughrin said. “This is by and large through the success of the many family harm awareness programmes being run and publicised over recent years. Through being called to incidents police are able to intervene early and make sure that people are safe. He acknowledged the Covid-19 alert-level restrictions had put considerable strain on families. “Common themes that we are seeing across our area continue to be gambling, alcohol and drug abuse. Mental health is also another significant driver of family harm demand.” Not all family harm situations involve violence or injuries. “Sometimes it involves ensuring someone who is

Will Loughrin

being physically aggressive or abusive is removed from a situation to keep others safe, while other times police may spend a considerable amount of time just talking to people, and ensuring they have appropriate referrals to other agencies who can help. “Our focus is on ensuring those involved in family harm matters - which can include children or other dependants in the household - are safe and well, and we utilise our community partners to do this.”

A Waipā Rotary recycling initiative has earned a top honour in the Keep New Zealand Beautiful Awards. The Urban Miners initiative in Te Awamutu and Cambridge, which results in redundant electronic equipment stripped and recycled, is run by the Cambridge Rotary Club. The best community group award won by the Cambridge Rotary Club recognises a not-for-profit community organisation which contributes to enhancing the environmental and social aspects of their region and shows a strong sense of community spirit. And the club’s entry for the award was accompanied by pictures provided by The

News. There was little time for celebration as the monthly collection took place outside Cambridge High School on Sunday morning. The service, in conjunction with Te Awamutu Rotary and set up by Cambridge Rotarians David Blewden and Mark Hanlon, keeps e-waste and electrical items out of landfills. Urban Miners receives funding from the Waipā District Council through its Community Waste Minimisation Fund and the Cambridge Community Board. Collections take place from 9-11am in Te Awamutu, on the first Sunday of every month at the Te Awamutu Sports and Recreation Club while the Cambridge

Rotarians at the Urban Miners collection try to ascertain whether this printer is worth giving to Lions to sell at their second-hand shop.

collection is held in Swayne Road outside Cambridge High School on the third Sunday. It is a non-profit, non fundraising activity launched two years ago. Items which can be resold are given to the Cambridge Lions Club for its second-hand shop. Helping bring the average age down at the latest collection was Elliott Schoot, 15, who attends Cambridge High School. He was taking an electronics class last year when a Rotary member told him about the initiative. Other volunteers defer to his knowledge about more modern electronics equipment while Elliott often has a laugh about some of the ‘older’ items he sees. “There is some really old stuff like we had two Nokia phones from the 1980s. They really were big bricks.” The 2021 Keep New Zealand Beautiful Awards held in Wellington last week have run annually since 1972 and are New Zealand’s longest-running sustainability awards. Taupō won the Most Beautiful large town award – won in 2019 by Cambridge - while Whakatāne won the supreme award. The Leith Place toilets in Tokoroa won the Best Loo Award.

FAITH IN WAIPĀ

AGE OF REASON

The transport hot potato

By Peter Carr

Having just spent a week in the Kapiti area visiting family I had the opportunity to watch the saga surrounding the repeatedly delayed Transmission Gully Road. It involves approximately 30 kilometres of four lane tarmac and some major bridges too. The sod turning for the start of this overdue ribbon that by-passes a number of narrow and dangerous coastal constrictions, took place so long ago that the cameragrabbing politicians desiring to be seen at this notable event were of a National hue. Four and a half years on we not only hear that there was a major cost blow-out – by just your mind-numbing amount of half a billion dollars – but also that there will not be any attempt to claw back any of this cost by way of a toll income. Further, the twinning of construction teams under the much-vaunted PPP partnership has come almost to naught. Sure, there were Covid-related delays but what is happening (or rather not happening) is a sham of a disgraceful proportion. Local bodies are running for cover, PPP members are fighting shy of the media and local mayors wringing their hands awaiting the sixth (yes sixth) announcement of an opening date. And from what I perceive no-one now wants to announce a date any tighter than ‘sometime in 2022’. Switch your mind to our local section of the Waikato Expressway. Completed ahead of time, well under budget and with the advantage of a 110kph opportunity. And of the money saved a portion is going towards building the local part of the 57km cycleway. Meanwhile back south again - just up the

road northwards of the Gully terminal at McKays Crossing - the relatively new bypass missing out two key Kapiti townships was finished several years ago. It is interesting to note that when these by-pass decisions are made there is usually a flurry of activity, mainly by retailers, that their business is to be doomed. Understandable that this is, perhaps it also presents an opportunity to refresh the town, change the mix of retail / hospitality and get on with life. I recall writing an article in the Cambridge Chamber of Commerce 10 years ago advising the doomsayers that they should perceive this as a glass half full opportunity. And look now - how hard is it to find a car park in Victoria Street and the surrounding area? Roading in an ever-growing community – and Cambridge certainly qualifies for that epithet – will always be a hot potato. The third bridge drum beaters will continue to clamour. Simply put – however well the case is argued – Waipā District Council is not imbued with a bottomless pit of funds. A simple re-shape of traffic at the south end of the current high bridge has been in the council’s files for several years. If we can put in place a simple fix at almost no cost, we will all move around our fine town in a more relaxed fashion. And to the polite man who stopped me last week to seek my Opinion input to his pet themes of roundabout driving behaviours and dog control, I hope this goes part way to assisting you.

We don’t know, what we don’t know… By Murray Smith, Senior Leader, Bridges Church

In 1983, Cliff Young an Australian farmer became a local hero. Cliff had run all his life and in his sixties, still loved to run. Since he didn’t have a quad bike or anything similar he ran all over his farm in the Australian outback. People urged Cliff to enter a ‘fun-run’ from Melbourne to Sydney - nearly 1000 kilometres. Why this was considered a ‘fun’ run, I don’t know but nonetheless it captured Cliff’s interest and he entered. Lining up at the start, people thought he was a ‘joke’ entrant. Cliff wore work boots and bib overalls, had a plastic water bottle and a little tube stuffed with raw beans, carrot and pumpkin. Other entrants pranced around with their state of the art running gear, hi-tech shoes, concentrated energy protein and energy bars, support crews and all the know-how on how to do this run ‘properly’! Cliff set out running his own race unfazed by the fancy competition. And he beat them all - by a day! He did this because everyone else believed they had to sleep at least six hours per day in order to be competitive. Unaware of that belief, Cliff averaged less than two hours sleep a day and won the race by about 24 hours. What happened next year? Everybody ran 24 hours faster because Cliff had shattered the old belief that had been a ‘ceiling’ on the competitors performance. A new reality in people’s thinking was struck! A great ending to the story - Cliff was unaware a prize of $10,000 was awarded to

the winner. He distributed it among all the finishers, becoming an instant celebrity. Opinions are usually formed on the basis of our perceptions, or lack of them…or what others believe and have told us. But even life’s ‘experts’ are frequently wrong and like those professional runners, their ideas and ‘theories’ can be inaccurate and totally misleading. Precisely the case with Cliff’s competitors. We can be convinced we’re believing established ‘facts’ - until alternative evidence utterly refutes all our understandings. This is especially true in the area of spirituality and the question of “does God exist?” Many will say, “there is probably ‘something’ there”, while others claim, “you can’t be sure,” or again others will say, “due to the lack of evidence there is no proof” … yet still others again, say emphatically “No God!” - claiming implicitly that they possess complete knowledge of everything there is to know. (At least it’d be more honest to say, “to the best of my limited knowledge, I don’t think there is a God”). I’m straightforward enough to see evidence in the wonders of creation which demands a Creator. ‘Nothing’ cannot create everything. Incredible order and design points to a designer. The other compelling thing is that like millions of others, I discovered that having a personal experience with God is possible. Not just possible… essential. And a person with an experience is never at the mercy of a person with an argument. BUSINESS SHOWCASE

PIECE OF VINTAGE HEAVEN ENJOYS RUNAWAY SUCCESS If one décor outlet can do a lot to enhance the home, imagine how much more can be achieved by a group endeavour steered by four magnificent, highly-skilled women. Collective on Empire is a case in point. The slice of upcycled vintage heaven is nestled in the quirky ground-floor spaces of the historical Central Hotel. It’s a gift to those seeking unusual pieces for their interiors … grand picture frames, fabulous cushions, books, crystal, china, candles and much more. Cambridge has nothing else quite like it. First of the four women to go in was Jo McIntosh, who opened Linen & Stone there in mid-2020, ostensibly as a pop-up shop while her buying trips to France were stalled due to Covid. By the time she was able to squeeze in a late 2020 trip, the pop-up had become sufficiently sought-after to become permanent. Co-workers came and went,

leaving the four who now make up Collective on Empire - Jo McIntosh, Helen Martens, Maria Gascoigne and Sandy Wilson. They’re a welcoming bunch who weave their individual brands into a successful whole that focuses on selling recycled heritage pieces while sharing the rent and the hours between them. It’s a sensible Covid solution that provides flexibility and futureproofs them in uncertain times. There is always something to see at The Collective, with clothing also on sale – some done by Jo, others by Shani P Clothing, or Molto Bella in Rangiora. Jo, Helen, Maria and Sandy tap into each other’s talents to create a delightful mix of French, heritage and farmhouse vintage, all sustainably sourced. Drop in and see for yourself. They’re at 3/4b Empire St, and are open weekdays from 10am to 4pm, and from 10am to around 2pm on Saturdays.

LINEN & STONE Jo’s Linen & Stone brand is all about French country élan. She sources most of her charming pieces from rural French brocantes. Her breathtaking cushions are recycled using velvet, brocade and tapestries, or printed with one-off images. Sandy Wilson behind the welcoming desk at Collective on Empire.

STEWART & CO INTERIORS COLLECTION Sandy Wilson brings her Celtic heritage to the outlet with her Stewart & Co Interiors Collection. Drawing on her Welsh, Scots and Irish background, she upcycles furniture and makes coats from repurposed vintage blankets, infinity scarves and arm warmers, using touches of tartan, plaid and vintage tapestries in her cushions.

TUFFET & CO Helen’s genre is European, mostly English country, replete with florals and tartans but with a touch of the Baltic thanks to her years spent there. Her brand, Tuffet & Co, defers to her mad addiction for chairs … she finds old ones and loves them back to life, dressing them in fabulous, imported fabrics. She loves old wood, adores art and sells her own pottery.

REDEEMED RECYCLED INTERIORS Maria Gascoigne’s brand is Redeemed Recycled Interiors. Driven by a desire to inspire people to love recycled and reused items, she would far rather see old pieces upscaled for a new life rather than end up on the scrap heap. Maria is also a skilled artist, and besides selling her own paintings, brings old works back to life.

River ride section to open By Mary Anne Gill

When the new section of Te Awa River Ride between the Velodrome and Tamahere opens, Neil and Linda Porritt will be watching out for you. The Hooker Road landowners gave up part of their property for the river ride and while they have enjoyed construction workers’ company for the last two years, it is cyclists and walkers they want to see use the shared path. The 72ha farm, formerly a quarry and now planted in maize and apples and used to fatten stock, is on the banks of the Waikato River and has been in the Porritt family for more than a century.

Neil, who can see people on the concrete ride from his living room window, paid tribute to the contractors. “Everyone went out of their way to be helpful.” The Porritts were one of four landowners who were guests of honour at the Te Awa VIP sneak preview last week. The others were Tim and Karen Bodle, Andy and Sandi McGrath and St Peter’s School. Te Awa River Ride Charitable Trust chair Simon Perry said the Velodrome to Tamahere section of the cycleway was “13 years in the making.” “It’s like good wine and good cheese, it takes time,” he told a socially distanced gathering at Hooker Road

Waipā mayor Jim Mylchreest, watched by left to right Waikato deputy mayor Aksel Bech, Hamilton mayor Paula Southgate and River Trust chair Simon Perry, says the river ride will bring people from all over the country to the district.

last week. An estimated 300,000 people use the ride every year. The Waipā section was to have opened soon after the ceremony but following storm damage earlier in the month, it will now open next Tuesday. Construction of the latest section was no easy feat – it comprises 3km of 3m-wide concrete path, 1.4km of boardwalks, two bridges, drainage, culverts, landscaping and fencing. Also present was trust general manager Jennifer Palmer, trustees including Olympian Sarah Ulmer, local government representatives, Waka Kotahi and John MacDonald from Cambridge Civil Construction who built the section. Waikato deputy mayor Aksel Bech, who represents the Tamahere ward, said the ride was a real asset. The ride goes around the back of St Stephen’s Church and under SH21 Airport Rd. “My heart is connected to this much more than my legs are,” he said. Hamilton mayor Paula Southgate said the project was a real example of good cross boundary work between the three councils

while Waipā mayor Jim Mylchreest said getting an infrastructure in place would get people coming to the region. The 70km river ride from Hamilton to Horahora forms part of the Perry Group’s vision for active communities and enhancing use of the Waikato River. The first section began in 2009 when then Prime Minister John Key turned the first sod at the Karāpiro section. The Ngāruawāhia to Horotiu section finished in 2015 and two years later the Perry Bridge cycleway across the Waikato River. Construction on the leg between the Velodrome and Hamilton began in 2019 when Associate Transport minister Julie Anne Genter turned the first sod. Covid-19 delayed the project several times – the section was to have finished mid last year. The project was a partnership between the Te Awa River Ride Charitable Trust, Hamilton, Waipā and Waikato councils and Waka Kotahi (New Zealand Transport Authority). Each council was responsible for construction of its part of the track with $2.95 million coming

from Waka Kotahi and $2.84 million from the Government’s shovel ready infrastructure fund. The Waipā section was

to have opened soon after the ceremony but following storm damage earlier in the month, it will now open next Tuesday.

NECK PAIN?

Then try a Teeter WHY

Inversion helps to:

Because they work! Spinal traction is the oldest recorded medical cure for back issues, first documented by Hippocrates in 400BC, spinal traction was used successfully for many year’s in modern hospitals however because it was a slow process and tied up hospital beds for long periods, was dropped in favor of surgery, which is considerably faster.

• Relieve Back Pain • Relieve Neck Pain • Relieve Muscle Tension • Stimulate Blood And A new study recently published in the Journal of Physical Therapy Science brings Lymph Flow good news to people struggling with sciatica and lumbar disc disease: surgery • Improve Posture may not be your only option for relief. Researchers at Newcastle University found • Increase Flexability that inversion therapy with a Teeter inversion table offers back pain and symptoms relief in sciatica patients and may even allow them to avoid surgery altogether. The case-controlled study evaluated the effects of regular inversion therapy on the pain symptoms of sciatica patients in line for surgery. The purpose of the study was to, “[measure] symptoms and [compare] the surgery rate following inversion for 85 participants with the surgery rate in 3 control groups.” Researchers found that lumbar disc disease and sciatica patients in line for surgery who inverted with a Teeter inversion table regularly, were 78% less likely to need surgery than matched individuals who didn’t invert, even as far as two years after the initial trial period. The study suggests, “…inversion therapy reduces symptoms and the rate of surgery in patients with lumbar disc disease and sciatica.” Using a Teeter is gentle and relaxing if done properly

WHY TEETER?

Frank Harwood (84 at time of picture) using his Teeter, Frank’s been Inverting for over eleven years and has found it keeps him young

Because they are the unquestionably the strongest, safest, easiest to operate and most comfortable available, if you are hanging upside down suspended just by your ankles, then these points are very important. Teeter are the only Inversion table in the world that meet any as well as all safety standards for Inversion tables and they are the only one to be FDA approved A decision was made by UL to test the five most common brands of Inversion tables on the US Market. Teeter was the only brand to pass the tests as well as exceed them. All the other brands structurally failed, on the strength test the best failed at 40% and the worst at only 18%. On the Endurance test the best failed at only 12% and the worst at 7%! This is why we only promote Teeter, the difference is HUGE!

IT IS PURE LOGIC AS TO HOW THE TEETER TABLE WORKS

Discs:

It uses gravity to apply traction, the traction gently opens the discs and as they open up they create suction, this suction draws fluid from the surrounding tissue back into the discs, re-hydrating them. This is the key! Discs do not have their own blood supply, they rely on trans fer of fluid from the surrounding tissue to keep them healthy and hydrated and over the years as discs get thinner with age, they lose the ability to take on fluid (just like squeezing a sponge) and they start to de-hydrate.

Posture: Poor

posture is one of the major cases of pain and is a major contributor to the deterioration of the body with age. A difference in leg length causes most of the hip and knee issues, as they continue to place uneven loads on the joints; similar to the wheels out of alignment on your car. Trying to correct posture is extremely difficult due to muscle memory, as it constantly pulls the muscles back to where they were. At a level of 40 degrees or more on the Teeter, the muscle groups open up and eventually come back into alignment, using the table daily, does not allow the muscle memory to pull them back out of alignment and slowly the muscles start to lose their memory and go with the flow, allowing the body to come back into correct posture. Then using the table once a day will ensure it is kept there.

De-Hydrated discs are less flexible, they are harder, more prone to injury, they interfere with nerve roots creating pain and ultimately the de-hydration causes degen eration. The Teeter Inversion table slowly and gently brings the hydration back into the discs, plumping them up. It separates the nerve roots far more effectively and This is pure logic, if a machine is out of returns quality of life

Muscles: A lot of pain is muscular, when

muscles are stressed they become tight which restricts the flow of blood and lymph through the muscles so toxins build up, Co2 and Lactic Acid. Traction opens up the muscles, Rhythmic Traction, is a gentle rocking motion that stimulates circulation and encourages blood flow through the muscles, which clears the lactic acid into your lymph system where it stimulates lymph flow and deals with it. Most people with serious neck issues see a large improvement after only one treatment.

alignment it does not last long, the only difference between the body and a machine is that the body is constantly repairing itself, however if the wear and tear on the body is greater than the body’s ability to repair itself, it is a slow decline. The Teeter slowly brings the body out of its decline and allows the body to repair itself, resulting in a far healthier life.

If you are serious about investing in your health and really sorting your issues out, come see us at one of our local roadshows, you have nothing to lose and chances are, a lot to gain.

Alpino’s star is rising By Steph Bell-Jenkins

Alpino Cambridge co-owner Riccardo Carminati and his team are fizzing after coming within a sniff of winning New Zealand’s version of a Michelin star. The Italian restaurant has been listed as one of the country’s best by Cuisine magazine, joining 133 others to make the cut for the Cuisine Good Food Guide 2021/2022. “Alpino really deliver on their promise to their customer,” said Cuisine editor and co-owner Kelli Brett. “You walk into that room and it’s just such a comfortable, amazing, buzzy atmosphere in there and then the food starts rolling out and it’s generous portions and it’s delicious and it’s full of flavour and the cocktails are great and the wine list is good and it’s so much fun... it’s just full of Italian hospitality and it really delivers on its promise. The building, everything all comes together to make it so very special.” Brett said the magazine’s team of culinary experts had spent a year independently and anonymously evaluating more than New Zealand 300 restaurants to compile the Good Food Guide. “We fly judges around the country and we pay for accommodation, so it’s an expensive exercise and it’s a very prestigious list,” she said. “To be on that list is something that a restaurant can be really, really proud of because it means they’re at the top of their game.” Cuisine gives each restaurant a score out of 20, awarding one “chef’s hat” for Alpino co-owner Riccardo Carminati, restaurant manager Angela Nikolic and head chef Branislav 16 points, two Petkovic are thrilled to have been recognised by hats for 17-18 and three hats for Cuisine magazine.

Welcome…take a seat By Mary Anne Gill

When Tim and Karen Bodle agreed to have part of their Whakanui Stud used for the Te Awa River Ride, they wanted an opportunity to acknowledge two very special people. So about midway through the new Velodrome to Hooker Road section of the ride, down a gravel pathway, in front of a waterfall and looking out to the Waikato River, is a memorial seat. On the seat is a plaque honouring Fred and Peg Bodle who founded Whakanui Stud in 1968. The Bodles have done what so many other Waipā residents and organisations do. Commemorative memorials create a legacy of past family members, friends or

community members while also enhancing parks and reserves. Service clubs like Lions and Rotary regularly donate seats through the council’s initiative. One of the more recent donations has been by the Cambridge Christmas Festival Society near the 6m high Le Quesnoy memorial sculpture. Messages on the plaques are limited to 150 characters on a 150mm by 100mm bronze plaque. Community Facilities team leader Brad Ward said the council appreciates it when people donate seats. Locations are agreed to in conjunction with council staff. A regular seat costs about $2500 including installation. For example, Jack and Lilly Yeates have a

seat on the Te Koo Utu walkway (pictured left) which acknowledges Cambridge “the town that gave us a new life 1954-2006.” Out at Karāpiro, there is a seat acknowledging long-time book retailer Richard Wright which says: “Looking over Cambridge’s future – Panic Slowly.” Other seats around Cambridge include one remembering John Maynard Hammonds which asks people to “Take a seat, enjoy the view”, or Murray Walter Maxwell saying, “Rest here and Remember” and Gina Anderson “Long, long live love wahine-toa”. There are older ones for J.B. Shannon, James Hooker Esq, George Booth, Barbara Poulter and Rose and Bill Mason. Ashley Roberts, Te Awamutu’s town clerk from 1951 to 1973 has a comfortable

green seat in Memorial Park while Lions Club charter member Norm Martin is remembered for his 50 years of service to the Te Awamutu community. Phyllis Wilson, who died in 2006, has a memorial seat in the park as do Bert and Ethel Spence, Mary Josephine Charleton and Ronald Thomson. The Hoskin family have a triple memorial to Jack, Joan and Diane, George Clarke, who died in 1969, has a well-worn brown seat, there’s a fading one to Angela Billing and Lois and Peter Self, who were long-standing members of the Te Awamutu Rose Society, have a seat dedicated to them in amongst the roses they loved. Those contemplating donating or bequeathing a memorial seat can do so on the council’s website.

NO PLANET B

Plugging into the future By Peter Matthews

Move over Nostradamus. Here comes Peteramus Matthewsilus. I’ve been observing the world over the past (nearly) 60 years, and I am now in a position to reveal what the future holds. Notwithstanding the butterfly effect, I’ve got it all pretty well worked out. Humans will continue to degrade the environment in their pursuit of economic gain. They do this because they believe material wealth leads to happiness. The forests will eventually all but disappear, as will a great many of the animal and plant species of the world. We’ll be all right though, because scientists will find ways to manufacture all the things we’ve ripped out of our surroundings and supporting ecosystems. Cities will exist on shorelines, gradually migrating, as seal levels rise, towards the inner deserts of every continent. Colonies will spring up on the Moon, and Mars, and other worlds, no doubt. Space junk in the sky will be like plastic in the oceans: we all know it’s bad and it’s growing, but in practice it doesn’t affect us too much. Petrol cars are being replaced by battery cars which will be replaced by another, perhaps yet to be harnessed power. Numbers of cars, terrestrial or flying, will continue to rise exponentially and it will be important for everyone to own the latest model. Of course the raw materials for these will be mined from the earth or perhaps even the seabeds by people on subsistence wages - or better still robots. I was in a house yesterday and noticed a wooden freestanding CD rack. “How old-fashioned” was my first thought. “I

was nearly 30 when they were invented” was my second. Now, less than 30 years later they are completely obsolete. In any event, before too long we will all access our ‘audio content’ from the ether via an implanted chip next to our ear which will be spliced into our auditory nerves. This will continue to be infuriating to old farts like me who can conduct half a conversation with a young person before realising they can’t hear what’s being said to them because they are plugged in to some virtual sound source. If you look closely, you can see a small white plug in the ears of people thus afflicted. It surely can’t be long before that little white plug is actually running the human to which it is attached. So, the world will be very different. I sometimes wonder whether conservationists shouldn’t be so frantic about preserving the old world, which obviously cannot survive. Rather they should perhaps see about how they can improve the new one. Pick your battles. Orangutans have had it. So have tigers and white rhinos. Let’s just make sure our flying cars can make it to the moon and back, and the next model can do it faster. PLANET These things ONLY will make us even happier than we are now. Oops, a butterfly just landed on my keyboard and changed everything. Mmm doesn’t look good. I’ll get back to you.

Classy addition for Goodwood By Steph Bell-Jenkins

Goodwood School’s new fourclassroom block is blue inside and out and green all over. “As an Enviroschool we prioritised a number of features including solar power that fully powers the block, a rainwater harvesting system and an environmentally friendly organic septic system,” principal David Graham said. The new building includes four classrooms, two breakout rooms,

kitchen facilities, an office and a new toilet. It was blessed by Kaumatua Harry Wilson from Ngāti Koroki Kahukura at an official opening ceremony attended by MP for Taupō Louise Upston, Waipa deputy mayor Liz Stolwyk and Goodwood School students, staff, whānau and neighbours. Two of the new classrooms, which can operate independently or be opened to allow collaboration across spaces, will be used by year 1 and 2 students, and the other two

by year 3 and 4 children. “The design provides access for each class to dedicated science, art and kitchen facilities,” Mr Graham said. Seven-year-old Zarah Kwok thinks the new buildings are “cool”. “I’m excited because of the art areas,” she said. “Arts and crafts is my special talent. There are also different spaces to write in.” Jessica Hawkins, six, is also a fan and is excited to have a place for science experiments. “It will be so much fun,” she said. “I love it because we are the very first ones to go into the new classrooms.” The new block completes stage one of a major school redevelopment, which will eventually include another classroom, extensive covered decking and a new adventure playground. Mr Graham praised contractor Lobell Construction for “successfully navigating Covid restrictions and supply chain challenges” to deliver the much needed block only a week or two

later than scheduled. “The project has been managed by the school’s Board of Trustees under the expert guidance of Goodwood School parent Scott Deschenes despite its considerable size and complexity,” he said. “This allowed a degree of

flexibility in keeping the design true to the school’s values and allowing us to incorporate a range of environmentally friendly features. It reflects the ongoing growth being experienced in Cambridge north, allowing the school to develop in a planned and sustainable way.”

Op-shop wants volunteers By Viv Posselt

Busy Bees Op Shop is marking a successful first year doing what it does best… on-selling donated items to help others in need. It opened last March, starting life as a pop-up store centred primarily on raising funds for Linda Roil’s Kids

in Need Waikato. Busy Bees founders, Brenda Rameka and Betty Busst, together with Julie Baines, were all grandmothers raising grandchildren, and they had empathy for Linda’s efforts to help youngsters in foster care. A year down the track and Busy Bees has grown like

topsy. It has expanded its hours, moved from the Red Cross Hall into the Trinity St Paul’s Union Parish church hall in Queen St, and raised more than $4500 for families in need. Brenda and Betty still steer the operation and said last week that another round of donations would be made

in the next few months. They still do a lot for Kids in Need Waikato but have extended the recipient list to include other organisations supporting people in need. The donations have purchased children’s clothing and toiletries for Kids in Need Waikato, provided school uniforms and lockdown food support for Cambridge Community House, and helped Christmas projects for Kids

in Need, Community House and the Cambridge Salvation Army. When it started, Busy Bees operated one day a fortnight. It then moved to two days a fortnight and is now running three days a week. The increased activity means more people are needed to swell the numbers of volunteers. They’re also in constant need of donations – anything from jewellery, books, linen,

clothing, knick-knacks, shoes and the like will do. They can’t accept furniture or electrical items. Busy Bees operates from 10am to 2pm on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at the Union Church Hall, on the corner of Queen and Bryce Streets. Those keen to drop off items or talk to someone about becoming a volunteer for a few hours a week can drop in for a chat.

Eden, Challis win in Twizel

Brenda Rameka and Betty Busst celebrate Busy Bees Op Shop’s first anniversary.

Cambridge rowers Samantha Eden and Chloe Challis won the Women’s Club coxless pairs title at the New Zealand rowing championships in Twizel last week. The two 17-year-old St Peter’s School students’ time of 7 minutes 55 secs in the final set a new club record. Eden also came in sixth in the club single sculls. The event was to have been held at Lake Karāpiro but was moved to Lake Ruataniwha to comply with Covid 19 Red Light restrictions. Eden and Challis were unbeaten, winning the first heat in 8 minutes 23.74 seconds and the semi-final in 8 minutes 5.18 seconds.

MP’s COMMENT

Why I changed my vote

The Conversion Practices Prohibition Bill was recently voted into law. While I voted against it at the second reading, I supported it at its third reading. I am a proud supporter of the LGBTQI+ community and want New Zealand and especially the Taupō electorate to be a place that celebrates and supports diversity, including our rainbow community. The bill prohibits changing sexual orientation or gender identity by conversion therapy of a person under 18 or someone with impaired decisionmaking capacity. For the first reading, the National Party caucus took a party position against the bill and then agreed subsequent readings would be a conscience vote. There are different views for different reasons across Parliament and MPs can cast their votes independently according to their conscience on some issues. During the second reading of the bill, I still had some concerns following the select committee process and voted against it. Those concerns included the role

Cambridge

By Louise Upston

of parents in decisions about their children, particularly about medical procedures or interventions such as puberty blockers that can have a permanent impact. Under the Bill, anyone intentionally changing or suppressing someone’s gender identity or sexual orientation could be breaking the law. Every family should be a safe environment for open, secure, and challenging conversations where all family members can share their opinions and concerns without the fear of prosecution. At the time, I was concerned that the law would criminalise parents for having those conversations. My job as a legislator is to understand the content and detail of a Bill, and not just the title, to ensure there aren’t unintended consequences of the law that we are about to pass. For this bill, I carefully reviewed the Hansard and the commitments on record made by the Minister between the second reading and third Reading of the Bill, especially around the role of parents. As a result, my concerns in that specific area were reduced. As with all conscience votes, I always

seek the views of my constituents through face-to-face discussions and surveys, do my research, and then weigh up both sides of the argument before voting. However, there was a limited amount of time to do this on this bill. Although I would have liked more time to consider my vote, Labour moved the bill quickly through the different stages of the legislative process and I had to make a decision that would rest easy with my conscience. I received over 100 emails and social media messages where my constituents expressed their feelings about conversion therapy. I kept an open mind, weighed up the pros and cons of the bill and supported it at the third reading. I’m pleased the Bill has passed. Conversion therapy is an abhorrent practice, and I am glad to see it banned. It has no place in our societies. Thank you to everyone that shared their views with me.

starts. “He was just coming up through the grades and we knew he was good but we didn’t know how good,” Emma-Lee said. “So we sort of threw him in the deep end and took him to Melbourne last year. He won his first race over there so that was a bit of a relief, that he was up to it. In his second race he ran second and then he won the Sandown Stakes. It was pretty exciting.” Emma-Lee began training horses 10 years ago with her father, former Olympic showjumper Jeff McVean, before going into partnership with David, who is the grandson of legendary New Zealand jumps owner, trainer and jockey Ken Browne. Currently in the process of moving to Australia, she and David say Elephant’s mere presence in the All-Star Mile will boost their profile. “We’ll always call Cambridge home and I think we will come back, but just with all the racing over there it’s the place to be and for the moment we want to push ourselves and try and go up against the big guns,” Emma-Lee said. Elephant is owned by his breeder Andrew Fowler, the Pukekohebased I Wanna Race syndicate, Cambridge couple Paul and Tiffany Murray and Emma-Lee and David, who have a small share in him.

Trumpeting our Elephant

A Cambridge racehorse named Elephant has been winning hearts across Australasia with his quirky personality, goofy grin and athletic prowess. The five-year-old gelding got his name because when he curls his top lip it looks like an elephant’s trunk. His local trainers, Sparta Racing owners Emma-Lee and David Browne, describe him as “a clown” who loves horsing around pulling silly faces and who is starting to gather “a bit of a following” thanks to his crazy antics and early racing success. “We love him, he’s a real character,” Emma-Lee said. Now, thanks to his growing popularity, Elephant has hit the big time. He has just been chosen by fans to compete in the world’s richest mile race – the Seppelt Wines AllStar Mile – where he will go head to head with 14 other equine stars including last year’s Melbourne Cup winner Verry Elleegant. If he wins, his owners will take home more than $2 million. “I might have squealed a little bit,” Emma-Lee said of the moment she received the news from Racing Victoria last week. “It was pretty cool that a lot of Cambridge people got behind him. It meant so much to us.” The annual All-Star Mile, which

began in 2019, is the only race in Australia where fans choose the horses to compete. “Usually to get in a good race it’s your prize money or your rankings; this one’s just merely on public vote,” Emma-Lee said. “You had to get through the qualifying criteria – you had to have won a group race or something like that – but once the nominations came out it was all up to the public and the top 10 horses

went through.” Elephant originally came in ninth with 5141 votes but was bumped up to eighth when the only other New Zealand horse voted in, Probabeel, had to be withdrawn due to injury. Racing Victoria will also choose five wildcards to compete in the All-Star Mile at Flemington Racecourse on March 19. David and Emma-Lee know they’re up against “really

tough” competition, but hope Flemington’s long straight will work in Elephant’s favour. “He travels well off the turn but then he always hits a flat spot and then goes again so a long straight suits him quite well,” Emma-Lee said. Elephant, son of former Melbourne Cup winner Shocking, began racing in New Zealand in 2020 and showed immediate promise, winning all of his first five

Flavours

with Jan Bilton

B & B Delights

Bagels and burgers are hot! They’re quick to prepare, can be highly nutritious with the right combo of protein and veg, and there’s hardly any cleaning up. An authentic bagel — the chewy bun with a hole in the middle — is made with a flour, yeast and water dough which is shaped into a circle then boiled in water for two to three minutes. After draining, the bagel is baked until golden. Sometimes it is brushed with egg wash before baking, sometimes the egg is added to the dough. Bagels are thought to have originated in southern Germany. (‘Bagel’ means ‘bracelet’ in German). Polish Jews adopted the bagel as their own and licenced street hawkers sold them threaded on sticks. Many believe the burger was created in a small Texan town by a restaurant cook who served a beef patty between two slices of bread. However, the German city of Hamburg also lays claim to the burger as the ground beef patty has been served there with bread and pickles on the side for generations. Whatever its origins, Americans now gorge over 20 billion burgers a year! Most burgers are still prepared from minced beef. However, chicken, lamb, fish and vegetarian variations are fast gaining in popularity

Cut the fish into chunks. Place the sugar, lemon grass paste, fish sauce and root ginger in a food processor. Mix until combined. Add the shallots, lime leaves, garlic and coriander. Mix well. Add the fish in batches, processing until well mixed. Form into 4 patties about the diameter of the burger buns. Brush with oil. Grill or pan-fry for about 4-minutes each side depending on the thickness. Meanwhile, using a vegetable peeler make thin strips of the carrot and cucumber. Place in a bowl of icy water together with the sliced shallot. Halve and toast the burger buns. Spread the cut sides with mayo. Place a lettuce leaf on each base and top with carrot ribbons. Top with the cooked fish patty, cucumber, shallot, chilli sauce and remaining bun halves. Serves 4.

1/4 cup mayo 2 tablespoons tomato sauce 1 tablespoon mild mustard. Preheat oven to 170°C. Line a baking tray with baking paper. Spread the beans evenly on top. Bake for 10 minutes until slightly dried out. Black bean burgers Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a frying pan. Sauté the red capsicum, onion and garlic over medium heat until softened. Place in a food processor with all the remaining ingredients — except the black beans. Pulse until well combined. Reserve a 1/4 cup of the beans. Add the remainder to the food processor and mix until combined. Stir in the reserved beans, Form into four patties adding some extra breadcrumbs if needed. Increase the oven temperature to 190°C. Place the patties on the baking tray and cook for 5 minutes on each side. Serve between the buns with the lettuce, tomato and avo and drizzle with combined mayo, tomato sauce and mustard. Serves 4.

BLACK BEAN BURGERS For a low-carb delight, swap the buns for 8 crisp lettuce leaves about the same size. 390g can black beans, drained, rinsed, patted dry 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil 1/2 each: red capsicum, large onion, diced 2 garlic cloves, crushed 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin 1/4 teaspoon each: ground chilli, smoked paprika 1/4 cup dried bread crumbs 1 egg 1 tablespoon each: mayo, tomato sauce Buns: 4 small buns, halved, lightly toasted 1 large tomato, sliced 1 cup shredded lettuce 1/2 avocado, peeled, stoned and sliced

SMOKED CHICKEN BAGELS 2 bagels 1/2 cup plain or flavoured hummus 1/2 cup baby salad greens 150g smoked chicken, finely sliced 2 vine-ripened tomatoes, thinly sliced freshly ground black pepper to taste 1 tablespoon each: mayonnaise, chilli sauce Halve and lightly toast the bagels. Spread the cut sides with hummus. Place the salad greens on the bagel bases. Top with the smoked chicken, tomatoes and black pepper. Combine the mayonnaise and chilli sauce and drizzle over the tomatoes. Top with the remaining bagel halves. The filled bagels can be wrapped in a paper towel and heated in the microwave for 30 seconds each or served at room temperature. Serves 2.

Thai-style fish burgers

THAI-STYLE FISH BURGERS Burger Patties: 600-700g skinned and boned white fish fillets 2 teaspoons each: sugar, lemon grass paste, fish sauce, finely grated root ginger 1 large shallot, roughly chopped 2 kaffir lime leaves, finely sliced 2 cloves garlic, roughly chopped 1 cup loosely packed coriander leaves, coarsely chopped 1-2 tablespoons canola oil Buns: 1 medium carrot 1/2 cucumber, peeled 1 shallot, thinly sliced 4 medium burger buns or small round bread rolls 8 tablespoons mayo 4 crisp lettuce leaves sweet chilli sauce to taste
