Life in the slower lane

The Cambridge CBD will be a 40km/h zone under the new plan.

200 speed limit drops planned for Waipā Cambridge’s town centre will become a 40km/h zone for drivers under far-reaching proposals the Waipā District Council called for submissions on this week. The council has come up with a whopping 200-plus speed changes in the wake of a public consultation series as part of its Safer Roads, Safer Waipā programme, part of a national roading initiative. It says 84 of the proposals are “significant”. The plan to cut the limit from 50 to 40km/h in Cambridge – where an average 16,000 vehicles are driven through the CBD

every day - is mirrored in Te Awamutu. The changes in Te Awamutu would not impact on limits on SH3. The council says the review is justified because population numbers are rising, the roads are catering for a wide range of users including cars, pedestrians, cyclists and heavy vehicles – and because a pedestrian hit by a car at 40km/h has a 70 percent chance of surviving, compared to 15 percent at 50km/h. It is expected Waipā district’s population will rise by a further 25,000 by 2050. The council’s speed limit bylaw proposal

says almost 340 submissions were received in response to calls for comments and public drop-in sessions late last year. Of those, almost 200 complained that current speed limits made their roads unsafe. The submissions prompted a raft of proposed speed reductions on rural roads. A sample of comments presented by the council including this one: “Our rural roads can be outright scary with speeding motorists on the one hand, and local traffic turning in and out of driveways, as well as many cyclists, tractors, etc., on the other.”

The council’s Road Corridor Manager Bryan Hudson said he was confident about the rigour of the submissions. “We were hearing about skids marks, broken fences and crashes – and that drivers appeared to feel obliged to overtake because the speed limit was 100km/h,” he said. The data presented in the report showed Waipā had an average 240 significant road crashes a year – they claimed an average of two lives a year and left 18 people with serious injuries.

By Sophie Iremonger Water supply in the Cambridge is far surpassing its usual average over summer, and for the first time in several years we do not have summer water restrictions in place. This can be credited to two factors – water metres have driven water use down by an average of 20 per cent across the district, and the Cambridge water treatment plant now has the capacity to supply an additional seven million litres of water per day. It brings the daily water supply in Cambridge up to 19 million in total, thanks to improvement works at the plant being completed at the end of last summer. “This is a good start to achieving Council’s water conservation goals. However, as we are experiencing very hot weather at the moment we would expect water use will increase,” said Tony Hale, Manager – Water Services at Waipa District Council. Because water meters are read on a rolling basis, every February, May, August and November, Council won’t have accurate information on demand compared to previous years until July of this year, once they have been read for twelve months. But already water usage appears to have dropped significantly, with water reservoirs sitting much higher than they were at this time last year. “This may be surprising given the hot summer we’re having but there’s several reasons for that,” said Hale. “Cambridge residents are traditionally higher water users, however recent upgrades to our water treatment plant have given us extra capacity to cater to this usage and also growth in the town. This has allowed Cambridge residents to stay off water restrictions for now. “Now that we are on district-wide water meters we have also noticed a change in behaviour from the community who are now making more effort to conserve water. This is great news! Residents now have the ability to monitor their own usage and our water conservation advisor Chris Parker has visited many households around the district to give tips on how to save water at home.” More information on saving water can be found at smartwater.org.nz.

A Cambridge teenager is already setting foot on her career path after releasing a creative book for children. Grace Andrews’ Friendship Book is an interactive text book of sorts for children to share with their friends and family, designed to make them learn more about their loved ones – from what makes them laugh to their favourite colour, place, food and so on. The scrap-style book has been a favourite of Grace’s since a young age, when she made her own friendship book using a pen and notebook. “I still have that,” the 15-year-old explained. “I got my grandparents, parents and friends to fill it out, and it’s so interesting to look back at it and see what my friends and I liked back then, and remembering all of those things.” Last year Grace decided to materialize the childhood hobby into a hardcopy book, and already she’s selling copies at Paper Plus Cambridge and other stores in Hamilton. “I had one as a kid, my mum had one as a kid, and people that saw them thought they were cool but never really made one, I guess because they weren’t sure how or what to do, and so I thought okay, I can give it a try. If it doesn’t work out that’s okay, but if it does then that’s even better.” Pages in the book were designed and hand drawn by Grace, which were then reformatted and printed by Fusion Print in Hamilton. “No one in my family has ever published a book, no one knows what they’re doing when it comes to that, so I kind of went in there and was like, ‘Hey, this is what I want to happen’, and they helped me,” said Grace. “I’m so happy with how it turned out.” After leaving school the year before, Grace explained that she “wanted to do something different”, and went on quite the journey as she described it, in making the book. “It’s changed a lot, it’s taken a while, but it’s just what I wanted,” she said. Grace incorporated other fun childhood stuff as well, like how to make a friendship bracelet, and pull-out origami pages. But her favourite aspect of the book is how it encourages people to learn more about their friends and family. “You find out lots of things about people that you wouldn’t usually ask, so it’s really

helpful when it comes to getting people gifts and things,” she said. “I hope it’s something that people can keep and use to remember people by, especially when someone dies. “It’s like a keepsake in a more fun way, I guess, for kids.” Grace has other projects on the go too, like making jewellery under the name “Hazel and Grace”, sold in Cambridge at Comins and Levin, and volunteering for New Lives Animal Rescue. Having decided against her original childhood idea of becoming a dentist, turned off after three years of braces, Grace said she’s not sure exactly what she wants to do in the future, but has a good idea of the direction she’s headed. “I’ve been asked a lot what I want to do, and I don’t know,” she said. “But I know I want to do something creative, and I know I want to do something that I enjoy.” Cambridge News has two copies of Grace’s Friendship Book to give away. Just send your full name and contact number to sophie@ cambridgenews.nz no later than 9am on Monday, February 11.

Grace Andrews hopes people will have fun using her friendship book, and learn more about their loved ones too.

A smile on his dial

This snap shot shows which roads around the centre of Cambridge would see speed limit changes.

Life in the slower lane Continued from page 1

Liam, with his new phone.

Furniture company Van Dyks have the smarts when it comes to phones too. When staff learned Cambridge youngster Liam Ward had lost his brand-new Vodafone NP smartphone to thieves, the company came to the rescue – and bought him a new one. Liam, 12, who started Year 8 at Cambridge Middle School on Monday, had been at the Cambridge Skatepark on January 28 with his new phone secured safely – or so he thought – in his zipped-up backpack. He had saved to buy the phone and registered it on his mum Briony’s Google account with the Find my Device app, which allows users to remotely track, lock, and erase data on a lost or stolen phone. But his skating sessions over, he returned to find the phone stolen. His mum Briony posted to the Cambridge Grapevine Facebook page to warn parents – and tell them that if their child came home with a phone fitting the description, it could be stolen. The post attracted a lot of sympathy from Cambridge residents wanting to offer help and donate towards a new phone.

“That wasn’t really the purpose of it,” a grateful Briony explained. “It was more to highlight that it had happened, and if your kid comes home with a new phone it could be stolen…” Shortly after the post went online, attracting 31 comments and 143 reactions, the team from Van Dyks caught wind of the situation, and offered to give Liam a new smartphone. “The young boy had worked so hard to get the phone, so it was just something little we could do for him really,” company director Daniel Van Dyk said. Liam said he “couldn’t believe that someone would do something like that”. “I’d just been frowning about it, but then as soon as I heard that they were going to give me a new phone, that just completely washed off my face and I had the biggest smile ever.” Not long after the phone was stolen, the Ward family tried calling the phone, and the call was manually rejected by whoever had the phone. Shortly after it was turned off, meaning the Find my Device app they were using could no longer track the device. Briony has reported the theft to police.

Bryan Hudson said while the average number of road deaths in Waipā may appear low, on a five year review it still added up to 10 deaths and 90 people with injuries which could impact on them for the rest of their lives. He said New Zealand had enjoyed a downward trend in fatal road crashes, but a review of the five-year periods showed numbers were rising again. In Europe where similar slower speed plans were being introduced, the fatality rates were a third of those in New Zealand. In Cambridge the proposal is to reduce speed limits in a significant number of residential and commercial streets from 50kmph to 40kmph, and reduce limits in “high-speed” stretches of road where limits are now 70 or 100km/h. The limit on Hydro Rd, from Ariki St to 50m east of Maungatautari Rd, would plummet from 100 to 20km/h and Hanlin Rd, outside St Peter’s School, would become a 30km/h zone – also down from 100. The plan also calls for reducing speed limits on roads with schools on them. Bryan Hudson said changes were necessary to cut down speed-related death and serious injury. “Whether you’re in a car, on a bike, walking or riding a horse, we want everyone to feel safe on our roads.” The proposals are in line with a national speed management guide which considers a number of factors when setting a speed limit, including traffic volumes, development road characteristics and crash risk. Bryan Hudson said the plan was “only the first step,”. “We’re also planning improvements on a number of roads, including more pedestrian crossings, widening roads, adding cycle lanes and improving intersections.” The proposed changes are supported by key road safety partners including police, the NZ Transport Agency and the Automobile Association. It’s anticipated that following the consultation period, the council could make final decisions on the new speeds by the end of April.

Tree totalled

Police say enquiries into a possible vandalism incident which occurred on Shakespeare St on the night of Friday, January 25 are still ongoing. A photo taken on Saturday, January 26 shows a young Kowhai tree had been snapped and broken off at the base of its trunk, by what appears to have been a vehicle driving off the road and onto the grass verge, taking out the tree in the process – based on tire marks in the area. Wayne Morris, who discovered the tree, said he found another young sapling in the area a few years ago which had been almost fatally damaged, sustaining a serious fracture

to the trunk. He taped it back together and, just like a broken arm, it healed itself. “Now I can’t even tell which one it is,” he said. “I’m just a resident concerned about vandalism of our trees, we want to preserve them and keep our Town of Trees beautiful,” he said, concerned about this latest spate of vandalism, or accidental damage, to another Shakespeare St tree. A protective plastic cap was placed on the sharp protruding stump left at the sight, and Waipa District Council confirmed the fallen tree has been added to their work programme, to be replaced in the next June/ July growing season.

Cambridge sport stars shine

Twelve Cambridge locals scooped five of the top awards at the 2018 Brian Perry Waikato Regional Sports Awards on Friday night. Sportsman and Sportswoman of the Year went to cyclist Sam Gaze and squash player Joelle King respectively, whilst Secondary School Sportsman and Sportswoman of the Year went to St Peter’s students Charlisse Leger-Walker and Finn Fisher-Black. A few more St Peter’s athletes were awarded on the night, the school’s girls u18 rowing eight of Brie Perry, Brooke Kilmister, Morgan Blind, Katie Bell, Anna Cairns, Beckie Leigh, Amy Butler and Kaylin

Wren being awarded the Secondary School Team of the Year Award. The team won the prestigious Levin Jubilee Cup at last year’s Maadi Cup – the national secondary school rowing champs, and won the Senior Womens’ Eight at the New Zealand Club Nationals. “To win one of the categories at this event is a terrific achievement - but to win all three is very special and it has never happened before,” said St Peter’s Director of Sport Nic Slade. “They are fantastic examples of what hard work, dedication and resilience can achieve when combined with talent and inspirational coaches.”

The school’s 2018 head girl Charlisse Leger-Walker became the youngest ever member of the Tall Ferns Basketball team last year, winning bronze at the Commonwealth Games. She also captained the New Zealand U17 team at the 2018 FIBA World Cup, becoming one of the leading individual scorers of the tournament. Finn Fisher-Black had a very successful year last year, winning gold at the 2018 Junior Track Cycling World Championships in the Team Pursuit and winning silver in the Open 25km Madison at the Elite National Track Cycling Championships. Joelle King made huge gains in 2018, winning gold medals in both the singles and doubles at the 2018 Gold Coast Commonwealth Games, as well as bronze

in the mixed doubles. She was also the Cleveland Classic 2018 winner and Windy City Open runner up. Sam Gaze enjoyed a victorious 2018 too, winning gold at the Elite Men’s World Cup Round 1 MTB Cross Country, and another gold medal in the Elite Men’s Commonwealth Games MTB Cross Country, along with first place finishes in the Elite Men’s World Cup MTB Cross Country short track series. Sam was also second in the Oceania Elite Men Cross Country Championships. Both King and Gaze weren’t present to accept their awards on the night, instead accepted on their behalf by Bruce Morgan of Squash Waikato and Jacques Landry from Cycling New Zealand.

In our town of trees, what tree stands out more than all others, and deserves the name “the Cambridge tree”? It’s a question the Cambridge Autumn Festival, Cambridge Camera Club and People in Mind have joined forces this year to find the answer to through a fun competition. It’s simple – find a tree, take a photo, send it to info@cambridgeautumnfestival.co.nz and you could win $250. David McCathie, Chairperson of Cambridge Autumn Festival, said, “Our festival is all about celebrating autumn, because it’s such a stunning time of year in Cambridge. Our trees are spectacular, and it got us thinking we should try and find the ‘perfect’ Cambridge tree.” The competition is open to all, whether you are an amateur photographer or professional,

and you can enter as many times as you like. The tree must be on public land in central Cambridge (it has to be within Cambridge’s central 50kph speed limit zone) and the tree must be accessible for anyone to take a photo. Mr McCathie said, “We know it might be tricky to find a single tree, so we will also accept photos of a row of trees. And we don’t want to limit the competition to just autumnal trees, so you can enter a photo from any season, as long as it has been taken within the last two years.” Full competition details are on www. cambridge autumnfestival.co.nz/find-thecambridge-tree-photo-competition. The competition closes Friday 8 March 2019 and the winner will be announced during the Cambridge Autumn Festival, which runs from 22 -31 March.

New year, new awards for businesses Organisers of the 2019 Waipa Networks Business Awards are encouraging local businesses to start their new year with a commitment to entering this year’s awards. Those interested can register now at www. waipabusinessawards.co.nz. There they can get started on their entries and save their progress on the website, so that they’re ready to submit when entries officially open on April 4. Entries close July 1. Organisers describe entering the awards as, effectively a mini business audit for a fraction of the cost, as well as a chance to promote their business successes, recognise valuable team members, expose their brand and network with the local business community. “I was involved in submitting an award application on behalf of a client last year, before my time here at the Chamber,” Kelly Bouzaid, Cambridge Business Chamber CEO. “The process proved invaluable in terms of not just realising where the

organisation was doing well but more so where there were market opportunities to pursue.” Kelly added that organisers are still searching for two more award category sponsors.

The Porritt Classic this weekend will pose an interesting challenge for local elite javelin throwers Ben LangtonBurnell and Tori Peeters – New Zealand’s best male and female javelin throwers. Holding the record for the best throws in the country means they usually face fairly easy competition at domestic track meets, but this year Japan’s top javelin throwers will be giving them a run for their money. Roderick Genki Dean and Yuka Mori will be among a handful of international competitors taking part in the event at Porritt Stadium in Hamilton on Saturday, which will attract over 300 of New Zealand’s top athletes. “I love it, I think it’s really good that they’re going to be there,” said Tori, 24. “When you compete with people who are better than you, it makes you rise to the occasion and rise to the standard that they’re throwing, so it think it’s going to be awesome.” “Usually when we throw in New Zealand there isn’t a huge amount of competition, and you do really want to get pushed,” added Ben, 26. Genki Dean’s personal best of 84.28 metres surpasses Ben’s by just 184cm, and Mori has outthrown Tori by 224cm. “I’ll just be throwing big,” Ben shrugged. “Just committing to a throw, and walking away from it knowing I put everything out there.” After many, many hours training each week the pair say they’re looking

Ben Langton-Burnell and Tori Peeters will show off their record-setting capabilities in the javelin throw on Saturday.

forward to showing locals how that preparation translates onto the field. “They get to actually witness how far the spear goes,” Ben laughed. “It’s a pretty awesome event to watch,” Tori added, “because the javelin just goes so far when it’s in the air.” Both throwers originally hail far south of Cambridge, Palmerston North in Ben’s case and way down in Gore for Tori. Now working locally, Ben as an accountant and Tori as a teacher at St Peter’s School, they say their athletics ability has improved ten-fold since moving to town. “When I came here I was just shocked,” said Tori, who spent a few years training and studying in Dunedin before moving here in April of 2018.

“It’s just such an awesome atmosphere to be in, training amongst literally the best in the world with some people.” “From a high performance perspective you just can’t compare the two,” said Ben, who trains alongside Tori at the Avantidrome’s high performance gym. “You’re literally surrounded by Olympic gold medallists…cyclists, rowers, kayakers, other track and field athletes, there’s quite the community here now.” “Every time you step into that gym everyone’s in there giving a hundred percent, and that’s the standard,” said Tori. “And at the end of the day if we can help each other it’s pretty awesome. Cambridge has been incredible.” Tori said her technique and ability in the gym has skyrocketed since training alongside Ben under Debbie Strange, lead javelin throw coach for New Zealand, and expects that growth to soon manifest on the field. Ben, who has been living in Cambridge for four years now, has managed to add 12 metres to his personal-best in that time. The pair hope to see a good turnout of locals at this Saturday’s Porritt Classic, running 2pm – 7.30pm at Porritt Stadium on Crosby Rd, Hamilton. A team of athletes from St Peter’s School and the Cambridge Athletics Club will also be competing across various events.

Career highlights for Joelle King

Joelle King named as the world’s third-best female squash player.

February has proven to be quite a successful month already for Cambridge squash player Joelle King. New world rankings released on Friday night last week announced that the Commonwealth Games gold, silver and bronze medallist had move up a notch in the world rankings to world number three, ahead of Egypt’s Nour El Tayeb and behind Raneen El Welily and Nour El Sherbini, both from Egypt. It follows on from King’s remarkable performances overseas recently, making the semis in the Tournament of Champions in New York last month, and winning her first PSA Platinum title victory in Hong Kong in November. But the success doesn’t stop there for the 30-year-old. At the Waikato Regional Sports Awards on Friday night King

was announced the joint winner of the Supreme Award and Sportswoman of the Year, both shared with rugby player Stacey Waaka. Later this month King will play in the PSA World Championships along with fellow New Zealand squash pro Paul Coll, taking place in Chicago February 23 – March 2. Paul also moved up in the world rankings last week to world number six.

Baker a White Ferns bowler St Peter’s student Emma Baker has been selected to be a nets bowler for the White Ferns as part of their preparation for the T20 game against India next week. At the end of 2018 Emma played in the Northern Districts Secondary School Girls Tournament in Tauranga. The Year 13 student captained the Hamilton side and performed well despite the weather. She was retired after getting 74 runs off 30 balls against Bay of Plenty. Her best bowling performance was against Counties Manukau, taking two wickets for three runs off two overs. Hamilton Districts won the tournament for the third year in a row and Emma was awarded Best Batting Performance for achieving the most runs at the tournament. She also made her debut for the Northern District’s women’s team, Northern Spirit, against Wellington Blaze. She bowled first in both games and on day two she got her first wicket in the women’s domestic compeition. Emma played for Northern Districts at the national under 21 women’s tournament taking seven wickets for 28 runs off 8.5 overs against Wellington U21. Emma was named in the tournament team and was first on the points table for taking the most wickets (10) for the tournament. The beginning of 2019 has also been fantastic for the young

cricketer. In early January Emma was selected for the Nothern Districts U18 side and played in Wellington with the team. Northern Districts won three out of their four games and placed 2nd overall in the tournament. This month Emma been invited to be a changing room attendant for the White Ferns/India games in Hamilton.

MORTGAGE MATTERS

Why use a Mortgage Broker? By Gavin Lynch – Yes Mortgages In the present loan market, most lenders are changing their criteria in regards to what, how much and to whom they lend. This makes it even more important to use a mortgage broker so you know you are getting the right mortgage and right lender to suit your needs. I believe every client has a unique borrowing scenario and time needs to be taken with the client to understand and analyse this, so a correct lending plan and structure can be put in place to achieve goals. In this column, I want to explain briefly the role of the mortgage broker and what I can offer. The key role of the mortgage broker is to make the whole loan process easier for you, the client. This is possible because: I can look at all the lending options. I deal with more than 25 different lenders and work to find the best lender to suit your unique situation. • I can do all the ‘leg work’ with the lenders. • This saves you time and avoids pitfalls in getting a loan approved. • I can negotiate rates, fees, and legal contributions with certain lenders to obtain the best deal for the client. • I can meet at a convenient time and place for the client. • This can be in the home or workplace and after hours if need be. • I can advise on the best loan structure to suit the client’s need. And best of all using a broker is a free service in most cases. Now that has to be worth thinking about! If your looking for a mortgage, please give me a call and I can help you though the whole process.

Big fish to fry at Sunday’s weigh in Organisers of the annual Leamington Fishing Contest are hoping to see a stellar turnout of locals at this weekend’s big weigh in. Fishers have between 12pm today (Friday, February 8) and midday Sunday to catch their fish and get it to the Leamington clubrooms on Carlyle St for the 2pm – 4pm weigh in (no late entries accepted). But the big hope is that anybody and everybody, fisherman or not, gets down to the clubrooms to enjoy an awesome afternoon of fun, banter, rugby, and of course the big weigh in, where beautiful fish fresh from the coast will be up for auction at bargain prices. All fish caught in the competition are auctioned off as a fundraiser for the Prostate Cancer Foundation of New Zealand. The main snapper, kingfish, kahawai and gurnard categories tend to attract the biggest fish – last year’s overall $500 winner weighing in a 20 pound snapper. Around 150 people went fishing The event will kick for last year’s competition, which off with a Leamington helped raise over $4000 for the vs Marist men’s Prostate Cancer Foundation of New Zealand. lacrosse game on the

main field from 2pm, followed by a touch rugby match with some of the local players. Drinks, food, fun and the big weigh in will take place inside the clubrooms.

Lacrosse players on top, just The Leamington men’s lacrosse team is sitting delicately at the top of their league by a few points, after an impressive victory over Hamilton Suburbs on Wednesday last week.

Player of the day Aaron Parker

Warrington the chance to play outfield. The team started out strong, Lucas Thom scoring a hat-trick in the first 10 minutes. Suburbs scored two of their own back, but by half time Leamington held the lead by 7 - 2, with Alex scoring two more goals and setting two up for Blake Anderson. They kept their foot on the gas in the second half, with Blake and Lucas scoring another two goals each. The Suburbs defence struggled to keep up with ball movement, but still managed to set up scoring opportunities for three more goals. The game finished 13 - 5 to Leamington. Player of the day was once again awarded to Aaron Parker for his amazing defence. “He was like a charging bull on defence, taking out anyone that came near the goal,” said coach Anthony Warrington. “He was also a threat on transition by taking the ball up the field all the way from our defence, running it past two Suburbs players and scoring a coast-tocoast goal, his first goal of the season.” The team’s game this week against Te Awamutu Marist would decide who takes first and second position overall on the table. Check out next week’s issue to find out how it went. “It’s quite an important match for us,” said Warrington.

with Jan Bilton

Deliciousness for Two Of course, it doesn’t have to be Valentine’s Day to treat a friend to a delicious home-crafted meal. At any time of the year it’s a gracious way of saying ‘thank you for being my friend.’ I’m a Francophile and for me there is possibly no other country more romantic and dedicated to great food than France: the town markets; the relaxed wining and dining; and great produce such as cheese, oysters, artichokes and andouillette. And I love that the traditional dishes are still revered and have stood the test of time. The Italians claim that France’s ‘salade de tomates et fromage’ has been pilfered from their culinary heritage being similar to their Insalata Caprese (ripe tomatoes, mozzarella and olive oil). But whether this is an ‘alternative fact’ or not I couldn’t say but only enjoy — fresh ripe tomatoes, mouth-watering buffalo mozzarella and basil are a fabulous summer combo. ‘Ragout’ is French, (‘ragù’ is Italian), and my following saucy lamb with herbs tossed with pappardelle recipe is definitely Italian inspired. However, there’s nothing more flavoursome than the lamb of Provence, fed on wild herbs and seasoned with salty coastal winds. And it was in this region that I first enjoyed the scrumptious pasta dish.

LAMB RAGOUT 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil 1 clove garlic, crushed 4 spring onions, finely sliced 1 tablespoon each: oregano, thyme, chopped mint leaves pinch chilli flakes 250g minced lamb 400g can chopped tomatoes 1 teaspoon each: honey, Worcestershire sauce sea salt & freshly ground black pepper to taste 150g dried pappardelle Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a non-stick frying pan. Add the garlic and spring onions and sauté for 1-2 minutes. Add the herbs, chilli flakes and lamb. Press the lamb with a fork to prevent lumps

Lamb Ragout

forming. Stir-fry until the lamb changes colour. Add the tomatoes, honey and Worcestershire sauce. Season. Cover and simmer for about 20 minutes, until cooked. Meanwhile, cook the pasta in a large pan of salted water according to the packet instructions. Drain well and add the remaining olive oil. Toss the meat with the pappardelle and serve in 2 bowls. Serves 2.

SALADE DE TOMATES ET FROMAGE A tomato and cheese salad. Make small balls of mozzarella using a melon baller or cut into 1.5cm cubes. 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves 1 clove garlic, crushed flaky sea salt to taste 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil 3/4 cup ripe mini cherry tomatoes 3/4 cup small balls buffalo mozzarella pinch chilli flakes Whizz half of the basil with the garlic, salt and olive oil in a small food processor to make a dressing. In a bowl, combine the tomatoes, mozzarella balls, chilli flakes and the remaining basil. Add the salad dressing and stir gently to combine. Serve in individual glasses or bowls. Serves 2.

CROQUE MADAME

Bechamel Sauce: 2 teaspoons each: butter, plain flour 1/2 cup low-fat milk, warmed salt, black pepper and ground nutmeg to taste Sandwich: 4 slices white toast bread 1/2 cup finely grated Gruyere cheese or similar 60g shaved ham 2 tablespoons olive oil 2 eggs To make the Bechamel Sauce, melt the butter in a small, non-stick saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the flour. Cook — stirring — for up to 1 minute, until thick. Slowly stir in the warm milk and cook over medium heat for 3-4 minutes, until thickened. Season. Keep warm. Place 2 slices of bread on a chopping board. Sprinkle with half the grated cheese, then add the ham, the remaining cheese and remaining bread. Brush a ridged frying pan or similar with olive oil. Pan-fry the sandwiches either side until lightly golden and the cheese has melted. Meanwhile, pan-fry or poach the eggs until the whites are set. Place the sandwiches on plates. Spoon the Bechamel sauce over each sandwich and place the eggs on top. Serves 2. Lakewood, 94 Queen Street Cambridge Ph 07 8276689 2 Fifth Ave, Five Crossroads Hamilton Ph 07 8556689

MovieReview

VICE Governor George W Bush of Texas picks Dick Cheney, the CEO of Halliburton Co, to be his Republican running mate in the 2000 presidential election. No stranger to politics, Cheney's impressive résumé includes stints as White House chief of staff, House Minority Whip and defence secretary. When Bush wins by a narrow margin, Cheney begins to use his newfound power to help reshape the country and the world. This is an excellent blend of talent and storytelling. So many aspects of this film really intrigue the audience, from the acting to narration and beyond. Anybody who doesn't really care for politics would probably be blown away by the film. Those that do find politics interesting would laugh out loud. Christian Bale's execution is flawless and McKay's direction style leaves plenty of juicy humour to bubble over the pivotal plot points. All in all you're getting a very interesting, possibly very true, account of one of America's most secretive and powerful Vice Presidents.

LIDO CINEMA

Special Valentines Day Movies: THE GRADUATE A disillusioned college graduate finds himself torn between his older lover and her daughter. Mrs. Robinson, are you trying to seduce me? Unforgettable, sophisticated, consistently funny, tragic, colourful, modern. The ultimate cult movie of the sixties is back to celebrate Valentines Day. It is famous for its soundtrack from Simon and Garfunkel, one of the most legendary in the history of cinema; ranked number 22 on the list of the highest-grossing films of all-time at the US Box Office with seven Academy Award nominations. It changed the face of Hollywood and introduced to the world the character of the original ‘cougar’, Mrs. Robinson, that any teenage boy remembers. It is a movie you JUST HAVE TO SEE. APRIL LOVE Chicagoan Nick Conover (singer Pat Boone in his first movie) is caught joyriding in a stolen car and his driver’s licence is suspended indefinitely. The judge figures a more wholesome environment would get Nick away from bad influences and suspends his sentence as long as he goes to live on the run-down farm owned by his uncle and aunt, who he hasn’t seen since he was a child. Aunt Henrietta welcomes Nick but Uncle Jed isn’t happy to have a delinquent living under his roof. He also has personal reasons for being antagonistic towards Nick. Nicky learns about horses and horse racing on the farm, but his interest is really caught by the sports car owned by one of the two daughters of Dan Templeton, the owner of a neighbouring luxurious horse farm. That interest of course includes the daughters. A wonderful film with the excitement of harnessracing and drag racing and April Love.

Local players on top in polo tournament By Sophie Iremonger Cambridge rider John Paul Clarkin starred as his team Breakaway Realty won the Keyte Watson Memorial polo tournament in Leamington last weekend. Clarkin, one of the country’s leading polo players, rode alongside Nina Clarkin, Nick Keyte and Ethan Wade to clinch victory 9-7 in the high goal final over Ag Biz Accountants, made up of Cambridge Polo Club captain Kit Brooks along with Simon Keyte, Angus McKelvie and Arthur Morgenstern. Fourteen teams sponsored by local businesses competed in the two-day event, which in keeping with tradition wrapped up with an international ladies polo match. This year the Kiwis won the title over a visiting Australian team, redeeming themselves after losing to the English last year. Captain of the New Zealand team and Cambridge local Missy Browne described it as a pretty tough game, given the Aussies were ranked higher, but also a lot of fun. “We just snuck in there by one goal,” said Missy, after the team narrowly won 4-3. The Kiwis were down by one heading into the final chukka, but managed to score a couple of goals before the finish to secure victory.
