Nelson’s golden summer
Spending figures and flight passengers at an all-time high It’s been a golden summer already for Nelson with retail, hospitality and tourism figures pointing to the region’s busiest summer for years. Last week Paymark, the country’s largest eftpos provider, released stats that showed Nelson was second in the country for spending growth in the month of December. An extra $9 million was spent in Nelson during the month, compared to last year. Much of that increase has been put down to spending in the hospitality and tour-
ism industries and president of the Nelson branch of Hospitality New Zealand, Ron Taylor, says that is showing at the tills of local restaurants, cafes and bars. “It has been a good summer and so far everyone is saying they’ve been pretty busy. All of the holiday makers coming into town have been in a joyous mood as well, so it been a really good atmosphere so far.” The number of tourists in the region is also higher than normal. Information released by Nelson Airport shows 44,010 people flew into the airport in December, up from

Nelson Tasman Tourism CEO, Lynda Keene, says an improved economy in New Zealand and globally means tourism figures are getting back to what they were before the global financial crisis in 2008. She says the return of traditional tourists from Britain, the United States, Europe,
Australia and Germany is mixing with new tourists from India and China, and – of course, Christchurch – to give the region a “very vibrant tourism market”. “Cantabrians are our major domestic market and they traditionally stay at Tahunanui, Kaiteriteri and Golden Bay. This year we have seen an increase in numbers in comparison to the last couple of years because of the stability of the economy, plus things settling down a little more in Christchurch. Cantabrians are holidaying like they used to”, says Lynda.

BMX gets impaled on monument Andrew Board

TUESDAY 13 January 2015
Need it built now? Dr Gregory Taylor has 20 years plastic surgery experience and is recognised as one of New Zealand’s
-FACTOR
A BMX was impaled at the top of the monument at the Centre of New Zealand over the weekend. Stoke’s Trina Hobbs went for a walk up the Centre of New Zealand on Sunday morning with some mums and their kids, when one of the kids spotted a bike at the top of the trigg point monument. “The wee ones saw it before we did. They started going on about bikes and then we saw it and we just laughed,” says Trina. “A few tourists were up there too and we were all just trying to work out how they got it up there.” Trina took a photo and put it on Facebook, assuming that the bike had been stolen and hoping to find the owner. At the time Nelson Weekly went to print there were no claims but plenty of admiration at the ability to get the bike up there in the first place. “They must have been pretty fit and pretty good at climbing,” says Trina. Nelson woman Leanne Duncan says she was walking up the hill on Saturday night at around 8pm and saw a group of around eight teenagers drinking under the bike. “We didn’t think much of it at the time, just young guys drinking but we did think ‘oh my god, look at the bike up there’ when we first saw it.” The monument was donated to the city of Nelson in 1968 by the Jaycees to celebrate their 21st anniversary in Nelson. It is an official surveyors trigg point to mark the centre of New Zealand on top of Botanical Hill.

Black Cat is lucky after all Some may believe black cats are unlucky, but for one Lotto ticket holder the feline is about to bring them a whole lot of good luck. For the second week in a row, Powerball First Division was won and the winning ticket was sold at the Black Cat Store in Nelson. However, at the time Nelson
Weekly went to print, the winning prize was yet to be claimed. Rhonda Pyatt, previous owner of the Black Cat store for 21 years, now works at the dairy and says lotto ticket holders have been double-checking their tickets and hoping they may be the lucky winner.
“There have been five major Lotto prizes won at the store over the past twenty years, but the $5million prize is the biggest” says Rhonda. The total Lotto Powerball prize of $5 million is made up of $4million from Powerball First Division and $1 million from Lotto First Division.
Outdoor movies draw in the crowds

The movies are screened in some of the region’s most beautiful parks and venues, with only a gold coin donation required. The classics airing this year include Little Women, Tintin, Captain Blood, A Street Car Named Desire and the family favourite, Mary Poppins. Movies will continue to play until January 25. Visit their Facebook page, www. facebook.com/summerinnelson, Andrina Reugg and Lisa Heyner enjoy the family classic Mary Poppins in Fairfield Park, for a link to all the viewing times and places. as part of the Nelson Summer Movies Al Fresco last Saturday.

Volunteers needed for Black Caps match Jacob Chandler A sell-out crowd is predicted for the one-day cricket international between New Zealand and Sri Lanka next Tuesday – but volunteers are still needed. Sport Tasman are looking for volunteers to assist in the running of the event which takes place at the Saxton Oval on January 20. Around 72 volunteers are required to help out with queue control, car parking and traffic management. Volunteers will also assist with the set up and pack down of the event, and dealing with spectators. Sport Tasman’s Hayden Bryant says they have many volunteers working during the World Cup matches, but more are required for the New Zealand vs. Sri Lanka one day international as it is set to be a sellout game. Nelson Cricket association general manager Richard Hayward says volunteers are invaluable. Nelson Cricket is a small operator and good volunteers are like “gold dust”. The organisation only has two fulltime staff and with an event as large as a one-day international they need a fair number of people

At 78, Ted finally retires
For advertising that really works!

Simon Bloomberg Reporter
NELSON
simon@waimeaweekly.co.nz Eighteen years ago Ted Clark was counting down the days to his retirement. Last month he finally did it, ending a long and varied career that included spending the last 45 seasons at the Alliance Nelson meatworks. Ted, who at 78 years old, would have to be one of the oldest freezing workers in the country, started at the plant in 1969 after six years as a policeman and seven as a male nurse at Ngawhatu. “I reckoned I would have retired at 60 if they hadn’t raised the age to 65,” Ted says. “I was 59 and 11 months when they did that, so I kept working. “Then I got to 64 and we shifted to the new plant, I changed jobs from a slaughterman to a labourer so I stayed on. After that I just took it year to year and now I’m 78 and my body is telling me it’s time to go.” Ted says he started in the wool in the old plant and then worked on the slaughterboard after that. “We wore black singlets and the plant didn’t have any of the technology when I started. We were one of the first sheds to trial some of the new pelting machines - the national union tried to stop it and we went on strike for a month, but the

company put it in anyway. “In those days we were permanent. We’d do maintenance or work in the manure plant in the off-season - they’d even make work for us to some degree.” Although Ted spent most of his life as a freezing worker, he could easily have been an event manager after organising one of the most successful national freezing works sports events. Ted did such a good job of getting

sponsorship for the national tournament, held in Nelson in 1981, that it made a $20,000 profit - that money was put in a trust and the interest is used to pay for sports events today. After 45 years, Ted says he is going to miss his workmates and comradeship, which “is the best part of the job”. However, Ted will be busy “getting back to play a bit of bowls” and spending time in “a pretty neglected garden”.

As Daryl Wislang walked the gauntlet of sailing fans, media and curious bystanders keen to see what all the commotion was about, he looks up at the pavilion containing friends and family and waved goodbye to his wife Jess and six month old daughter Pearl. It’s the last time he’ll see them for around 23 days and he says leaving them is toughest part of his job – a job widely regarded as one of the toughest in the world. Daryl – a former Nelson Yacht Club member and Waimea College head boy – is boat captain on the Abu Dhabi Ocean Racing yacht, which sails in the Volvo Ocean Race. The third of the nine-leg race took off from Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates last week, and there he spoke with Nelson Weekly just half an hour before he hopped on his yacht for the next leg of the race to China – a leg which his team is currently leading at the halfway mark. He says being a professional sailor is what he dreamed of when growing up in Nelson but it does have its downsides – notably, time away from his young, Wellington-based family. “It’s pretty hard with a six month old baby, I’m going to be at sea for more than half of her first year of life so I’ll miss quite a few things, but that’s the way it goes.” Daryl’s team is joint leaders after the first three legs and he says he’s confident they can take the whole race
Andrew Board Editor
andrew@nelsonweekly.co.nz out. “We have a really experienced and professional team so we’re aiming to win the race.” It’s the third round-the-world race for Daryl, after racing for Spanishbased Telefonica Blue in 2008/09 and with Camper Team New Zealand in 2011/12. In those races he finished third and second respectively. This year the race started in Alicante, Spain, before heading to Capetown, Abu Dhabi, China, Auckland, Brazil, Newport in the United States, Portugal, France and then finishing in Sweden. He says he wanted to come back for a third race for one main reason – to win it. “I love the Volvo Ocean Race for the challenge, the camaraderie and the long-lasting friendships that you make with your crew mates,” he says. “But the real reason I’m back is the fact that I haven’t won one yet. It’s time to put that right and I’m confident the Abu Dhabi team gives me the best chance of that.” As boat captain, Daryl is in charge of getting everything ready on the boat and making sure the team has all the equipment it needs. It also means if something breaks down, he’s the first called on to fix it. The race is expected to arrive in Auckland in late February.

New lifejackets for young sailors
Port Nelson harbour master Dave Duncan, far right, presents the new buoyancy aids to Nelson Yacht Club sailing manager Tim Fraser-Harris, last week.
Nelson’s young sailors got a boost last week when they were presented with some brand-new life jackets. Nelson Yacht Club was given 15 shiny new RFD Hurricane Buoyancy Aids for kids to use on the popular summer holiday programme. They were supplied by Survitec Ltd and paid for by Port Nelson Ltd. Marine Operations Manager and Harbourmaster, Dave Duncan, officially presented the new buoyancy aids to sailing manager Tim Fraser-Harris and a group of young sailors.
Dave has been part of a nationwide drive to encourage people to wear lifejackets when in, on, or near the water. It has been a busy summer already at the club with plenty of kids learning to sail and windsurf in the Junior Watersports Programme. There are still a handful of spaces left in the week of January 2630, and then term-time courses starting after Waitangi weekend. Anyone interested in having their child involved in the learn-to-sail programme should email Tim at info@nelsonwatersports.co.nz

NZ’s top kite festival is back
Jacob Chandler
Kite flyers from all over the world are set to come to New Zealand’s longestrunning kite festival, held in Nelson this weekend. Event organiser Gretchen Howard says kite flying has a very active following and she is expecting kite flyers from as far away as Germany, Holland and Britain, as well as from all around New Zealand. “We get a big crowd in from Ashburton, they’ve been there every festival,” she says.
Action from last year’s kite festival. She also expects a lot of Wellingtonians coming across for their long anniversary weekend. The festival includes professional kite displays such as a large fugu fish that stays close to the ground so kids can go inside.
we’ve got your Trish Gray
Brenda Grant
Last year, the festival included kites in the shape of horses, whales and dolphins. “It’s a surprise every year,” Gretchen says. The event will also feature a windpowered kite buggy display and food stalls.One of the biggest factors with kite flying is the wind. “You get turbulence in the wind and it’s like trying to fly in a washing machine.” Members of the public are encouraged to bring their own kites along to fly. The festival runs from 12pm to 5pm Saturday and Sunday and is funded by gold coin donations.

Fashion quinella at the races Simon Bloomberg Reporter
simon@waimeaweekly.co.nz
It was a case of deja vu for winners of Sunday's Fashion in the Field, with Brightwater's Sarah Earwaker and Richmond's David Hope completing their second quinella on the catwalk at the Nelson Harness Racing Club's meeting at Richmond Park. Sarah and David held off challenges from "an absolutely amazing" line-up of contestants in this year's fashion contest that attracted 16 men and 35 women. It was the second time the stylishly-dressed fashionistas have taken out the contest after both winning in 2013. And once again, Sarah, 19, showed that looking glamorous isn't about spending the big bucks. Two years ago, she wore a friend's dress and this year she hunted out bargains on-line, purchasing her cream dress on-line from ASOS and her shoes on E-Bay. "I love the classic look so I wanted something

Strange sounds from the wear indicator can mean your brake pads need changing, if you car begins pulling to the left or right, you feel vibrations and finally, a temperamental pedal. If your pedal ends up going to the floor before engaging the brakes, it could mean either worn pads or a problem with the hydraulic system.

SPORT Iron-women prepare for top races Locally Owned and Operated

Four Nelson female triathletes continued their preparation for some big challenges in the next two months when they competed in an Olympic distance triathlon at Rabbit Island on Sunday. Milly King, Eileen Searle, Carol Cooper and Jane Orbell contested the finish of the Nelson Triathlon and Multisport Club's event, with Carol just edging out Milly and Jane and Eileen finishing fourth. Carol finished the 1500m swim, 40km cycle and 10km run in 2 hours 34 minutes 58 seconds, just 20 seconds ahead of Milly, 34 seconds clear of Jane and 3 minutes and 43 seconds clear of Eileen. But Sunday's race was just a training run for the four athletes who are entered in either half or full iron distance races starting next month. Eileen is targeting Ironman New Zealand in Taupo on March 7, Milly is lining up in the Wanaka half iron distance race on February 22, Jane is entered in the Picton Half Ironman on February 7 and Carol is on track for the Melbourne Ironman on March 22. After winning her 50-59 age group in Challenge Wanaka's full iron distance race of a 3.8km swim, 180km bike and 42.2km run for the last two years, Eileen says she entered Ironman NZ "because I wanted to do a different course".

Photo: Simon Bloomberg. Eileen raced in the Taupo half ironman in December so she could look at the course, again winning her age group, but concedes the full distance race which attracts over 1000 competitors will be a big step up. "I have won at Wanaka twice now but Taupo is going to be a completely different race. I would love to win my age group and qualify for the world champs at Kona, but that would be a bonus." Carol is also chasing a qualifying spot at
Kona after narrowly missing out when finishing third at the Ironman Western Australia in early December. "I had a break after Western Australia and now I'm building up to Melbourne," Carol says. "I won't be doing anymore triathlons before then, although I'm running the Buller Marathon next month." Jane will be competing in her second half ironman when she lines up in Picton, after recording a fast 5hr 9min 51sec at
Lake Hood near Ashburton last year. In contrast, Milly was competing in only her third triathlon on Sunday and will be making her half ironman debut in Wanaka. "I've been a cyclist for a while and wanted to try something new," Milly says. "This was my first Olympic distance triathlon so it's a bit of a learning curve." Jude Vincent, who was the fifth fastest woman on Sunday in 2hr 43min 22sec, will be making her iron distance debut in Challenge Wanaka on February 22. Jude's husband Chris, who finished 13th on Sunday, will be competing in his first half ironman at Wanaka while Eileen's husband Rob, who finished fourth, will also be competing in Ironman NZ. Matt Newbury won Sunday's men's race in 2 hours 14 minutes 37 seconds, with Hayden Harper second in 2hr 19min 27sec and Alan Bryson third in 2hr 23min 16sec. Hayden Squance won the men's sprint triathlon in 1hr 9min 53sec with Emily Lush winning the women's race in 1hr 25min 8sec. Dan Busch won the men's standard duathlon in 2hr 5min 6sec.

Local horses find success at Richmond races
Simon Bloomberg
Richmond trainer Brian Johnson's patience paid off when Bishop Brian won the Route 6 Automotive/Top 10 Holiday Park Mobile Pace at the Nelson Harness Racing Club's meeting, at Richmond Park on Sunday. The giant pacer has taken a long time to mature and Brian and owner-breeder, Tom Fox of Mapua, have been forced to take a patient approach with the Pay Me Christian four-year-old. But that strategy paid off on Sunday when Bishop Brian won his fourth start in style, cruising to the lead with a lap to run and then winning easily by one and quarter lengths. Bishop Brian started as a favourite on Sunday after finishing fourth on the first day of the meeting on Friday. He had earlier finished fifth in his debut at Westport on December 26, and then fourth and third in his next two starts. "He's a great big horse so he's taken a lot of time to mature." Tom says. "We've got a Bettors Delight two-year-old halfbrother to him at home and he looks like he'll be the same." Brightwater owner-breeder, George Hill, also enjoyed a rare success on his home track when his promising pacer, Arizona Atom, completed a double for the meeting on Sunday. Arizona Atom won impressively on the first day on Friday when he prevailed on debut in the More FM Pace, and then backed up with an equally-brilliant win
