NelsoN’s Newest diNiNg experieNce

Leaving home for tourists More Nelsonians are renting out their homes over the summer months to make some extra cash, as demand for more homely accommodation increases.

Nelson has about six holiday home management companies and they say people will rent out their own homes over the New Year period for various reasons, but mainly to make some extra money.

Auckland-based Bachcare has just announced that it has expanded its man-

agement of holiday homes and baches, to Nelson. Bachcare says while holiday homes and baches are the key part of their business nationwide, in Nelson people are more likely to rent out their own home and they can earn some big money for it.

“It is a great way for owners to earn more money. Owners can typically expect to earn nearly $10,000 in rental income, just from renting it during the summer months,” says Bachcare Nelson manager,

Nelson woman Vairi Hikuroa agrees and says for the past two years her young family have moved out of their small, threebedroom home in Tahunanui for a few weeks over Christmas. She says they went

camping while people were in their home and they made $180 per night.

“That money enabled us to be able to go on holiday and have a good time. It was definitely worth it and a good way to take advantage of where we live.”

Jarrod Buchanan, owner of Holiday Homes Nelson, says he started his business in 2008 and since then there has been an increase

Skies clear for masked parade

Around 2500 people paraded through the city’s streets for the annual masked parade on Friday night, with thousands more watching on.

The parade is a highlight of the Nelson Arts Festival and the Nelson City Council says it was thrilled with the event, estimating a crowd of 15,000 to 20,000 watching on.

Tasman School won the Kim Merry Supreme Group award for their steam punk entry.

Nelson City councillor Luke Acland says the parade and More FM Carnivale were a great success.

“Everyone was in full festival spirit despite grey clouds threatening at times.

“Nelsonians are truly dedicated to the masked parade. The turn-out on Friday was fantastic, and the masks and performances were outstanding.”

Inspector Steve Greally says the crowd was well behaved, with no major incidents.

Police arrested just two people and issued two alcohol infringement notices throughout the evening.

in the number of homes he looks after and they include homes that are worth up to $1.5 million.

“We have some beautiful homes on the Port Hills or along the Maitai in the city, which is a different experience for those renting it. But we also have other homes that are basically a roof over your head but more comfortable than a motel or camping ground.”

He says people can charge between $150 to $500 a night for their homes and for many that makes a big difference.

“We have people who need the income just to get by. They look at the summer as an opportunity to go and camp and

allow people to come and use their homes.

“And we have others with their magnificent homes but they might be elderly and they just don’t have an income to pay their rates and their insurance bills, so this is a godsend for people in that situation.”

He says other reasons include some who may be going on their own holiday and like the security that having someone in their home offers. The money can also pay for their own holiday.

Lynda Keene from Nelson Tasman Tourism says she’s not surprised by the comments and that the industry has noticed a big shift to private accommodation over the past decade.

TRUST GOES UNDER: An employment trust that the city’s litter removers work for has gone under. The Board of the Kahurangi Employment Trust announced that it couldn’t continue financially.

The closure will also affect the trust-run Refinery Art Space.

‘RAT RUN’ CLOSED: Sneaky drivers using Beatson Rd as a “rat run” to cut builtup traffic on Waimea Rd will have their short cut blocked next month.

A two week trial to close the road will run only on weekday mornings between 7.30 and 9.30am.

A massive Nelson crowd did its bit on Saturday night, turning out in their thousands to support our Tasman Makos to a big ITM Cup semi-final win over Canterbury.

Now it’s up to the team to create rugby history and win the ITM Cup Premiership for the first time ever.

The Makos will play Taranaki in New Plymouth on Saturday night at 7.35pm. The winner will be crowned the best provincial rugby team in the country.

SUBURBAN CLUB: Members of the Nelson Suburban Club gathered on Sunday and voted to enforce the $100 levy for every member, but also voted to exclude returned servicemen from the levy. Board chairman Ross Strawbridge also announced his resignation.

The closure of the Trafalgar Centre has dented Nelsonian’s satisfaction with the region’s recreation and leisure facilities, but overall confidence in Nelson City Council’s performance has increased.

The latest residents survey of the council’s performance has been released and it shows that overall satisfaction is at 54 per cent, up from 49 per cent last year but down from 2012, when it was at 62 per cent.

The biggest drop in satisfaction came with the region’s recreation and leisure facilities which recorded 63 per cent satisfaction, down from 78 per cent in 2012.

The survey was done by Versus Research in May and June, and a report by them was presented to the council last month. The report says almost half of those who were dissatisfied with recreation

Opinions on air quality were interesting, with an equal split of those saying that woodburners create too much smoke and that woodburners should be allowed. Thirty-seven per cent of those surveyed use a heat pump, with exactly the same percentage using woodburners.

The survey showed that 73 per cent had attended at least one event as part of the summer festival or arts festival.

White and brown bread in one loaf

Save big on fuel with NPD and SuperGold

The Swedish Bakery may have just solved the long-running dilemma over whether to get white or brown bread – with a two-in-one loaf.

The bakery’s owners were talking about how some customers battle to decide which loaf to buy, so they’ve taken the hassle out of it with what they think could be a world first, a loaf that’s half white and half brown bread.

Owner Bronwyn Eriksson says the loaf was discussed in the bakery and was originally talked about for people to have the white bread for breakfast and the rye bread for lunch. “We started to think about how our customers wanted different breads at different times of the day, and it went from there.”

But she admits there are a lot of her customers where the household is split, with some preferring white and some brown, and this loaf can solve that too.

Bronwyn says they’ve done some research to see if anything like it has been done elsewhere, she says they can’t find it anywhere. “We may have created a world-first here in Nelson,” she says.

She says the trick was finding two breads that had matching baking and rising times. They chose a Levain bread, the white half is a wild yeast sourdough and the brown half is a rustique loaf which is 70 per cent rye.

The fusion loaf is available every Tuesday at The Swedish Bakery.

Landlords chip in for warmer homes

Andrew Board

Sixty-four year old Lance Langdon didn’t think the Atawhai home he rents needed insulating, but with a referral from the health board and support from his landlord, his home was one of the first made warmer thanks to a new local initiative.

Lance lives in the home with his wife, 63, and mother-in-law who is 87. All have breathing problems and have spent time in hospital this year. He knew his home was insulated so didn’t think it needed any more work, but after being referred by his doctor his insulation was tested and shown to be in poor condition.

Enter the Warmer Healthier Homes project.

Around 300 Nelson homes will be insulated over the next year via the Warmer Healthier Homes project, funded by government agency ECEA and the Canterbury Community Trust. The project was announced in August and is targeting rental properties.

Housing minister Nick Smith says the government’s healthier homes scheme that was launched in 2009 saw 250,000 homes get insulated, 3600 of those in Nelson. But only 100 of those Nelson homes were rental properties.

He says this new scheme with the local partners is unique and it will have a big impact on the health of Nelsonians.

“The government’s objective is to try and reduce power bills, ensure people

Bill Dalhberg, of the Canterbury Community Trust, says the problem with other schemes has been figuring out what should be paid for by the landlord and what should be funded, but this group is focused on getting homes warmer, no matter how they do it.

He says the scheme – managed by the Nelson Tasman Housing Trust, supported by Absolute Energy, Nelson Marlborough District Health Board and the Primary Health Organisation – is already working with four rental property management companies and

they are talking to many more.

In Lance’s case, his Auckland-based landlord was happy to support the scheme by putting $500 towards the job, which is worth about $3000.

Bill says it’s nice for landlords to have “skin in the game” but it wasn’t compulsory. “If landlords do put money in it means we’ll be able to help another person with health concerns, because the money will just go back into the fund.”

Nick says ECEA has set aside enough funding to insulate another 30,000 homes nationwide for those that are occupied by tenants. “Immediate programme is to push hard to try and get landlords on side.”

Shop 'n Win is back Raeward earns

gold for sausages

The region's best shopping perk is back.

Shop 'n Win has been running in Richmond for seven years and sees a local shopper win $5000 cash just in time for Christmas.

The retailer that sold the winning ticket also takes home $2000 cash. In a new addition to the competition, $2500 worth of Richmond Mall vouchers will be given away half-way through the five week competition.

Raeward Fresh has produced the best premium pork sausage in the country.

Last week, the Richmond fresh vegetable and meat business won a gold medal at the Devro New Zealand Sausage Competition, one of only two in the traditional pork section and one of only 22 gold medals across the country.

Nelson’s New World also won gold for its boerewors sausage in the continental fresh category. There were more than 400 entries to the awards, which were judged by a panel of culinary-trained chefs, butchers and food writers.

Raeward Fresh owner Justin Blackler says the win was great recognition of the quality meat they’re providing. “It’s the first time we’ve entered the awards but people kept telling us how great our sausages are, so we thought we’d test it in front of a trained palate.”

The premium pork sausage is made from 100 per cent freedom pork and was made by butchery manager Josh Flavell.

Justin says his team are thrilled

St Joseph’s students get right into gala YOUNG ENTERPRISE AWARDS: The Lion Foundation Young Enterprise Scheme Awards will be held at Nelson Marlborough Institute of Technology. The scheme is a business program where year 12 and year 13 students set up a company, create real products or services, and make a real profit or loss. More than 155 high school students from Garin College, Waimea College, Nayland College, Nelson College, Nelson College for Girls and Buller High participated in this year’s YES program, creating and running 41 businesses.

Scholarships from NMIT and the University of Canterbury were among st the prizes.

St Joseph School pupils have been working hard to make this year’s gala one of the most colourful.

Each of the school’s students has designed and made their own square of bunting, which will be used to decorate the school for the gala.

The idea was to encourage school pride, something that will be on display during the gala on Sunday, November 9, from 11am to 3pm.

The annual gala will feature pony rides, plate smashing, a fairy grotto, Noddy train, treasure dig, a haunted house and plenty of food, music and other entertainment.

Materials for the bunting were sponsored by The Salvation Army, Spotlight and Guthrie Bowron.

Gunn “He had something Justine like nine kids so it had to be a big house.

“The family still had the original floor plans for the house, so we’ve used those to build the miniature version. My family are also great hoarders so we have been able to see some of the original furniture and make that as well” Although miniature enthusiasts can purchase Brendafor Grant a wide range of items building models, Mary says they like to make their own building materials, household furniture, drapes and fittings.

St John fundraiser a success: Thanks Nelson Weekly for your great articles and photo in the lead up to and following the St John Duck Race. Despite conditions, it was a fun and worthwhile event, raising $7000 for St John in Nelson. We appreciate your support.

Kind regards, Sarah McCabe, St John area executive officer.

Luncheon Club celebrates 70 years Nineteen past presidents of the Nelson City Luncheon Club joined dozens of other members to celebrate the club’s 70th anniversary last Monday.

The club was founded by members of the Nelson Battalion of the Home Guard after they were disbanded in 1944 and its inaugural meeting was held on November 27 of that year. One of the founding members, the late Bill Parr, explained how it came about: “Prior to 1944, Japanese forces were thrusting southwards towards New Zealand. Our Home Guard (124,000 volunteers by April 1943) became our first line of defence. Every trade, profession and almost every shop, office, warehouse, factory and farm were represented in that

number. Thus there grew a certain comradeship which had not been experienced in New Zealand before or since. One of the Nelson Battalion, I.S.Tony Gardiner found that he greatly missed this comradeship with men of so many other walks of life. He called a meeting of some of his comrades and suggested a fortnightly luncheon meeting in order to continue and enjoy that ‘fellowship’ born of the war years.”

The objects of the club were to encourage good fellowship, civic pride and interest in our city and Province of Nelson. There were to be no restrictions or qualifications for membership, as it was not to be just another service club.

The club still meets every month at the Freemason hall on Nile St.

The historic Panama Hotel has been dragged head first into the twenty-first century by owners Garry and Kerry Ford, and is now back up and running, ready for a fresh start in the hospitality industry.

The site used to house the Miners’ Arms Hotel which was built in 1855, and then in 1883 it was rebuilt and named the Panama Hotel, which ceased to operate in 1976.

The decision to lease the ground floor of the premises was discussed over a pint in

the neighbouring Sprig and Fern tavern, but plans quickly changed when Garry and Kerry found themselves with full ownership of both storeys of the historic building included. “We just thought it was a great corner because it’s the hub of Nelson with all the restaurants up this end of town, and we thought it was a great corner spot with the hotel being built out the back. They have no restaurant in it and we are open from 7am on weekdays so we will be able to capture that market for breakfasts. It’s

just such a great building, so we’re just bringing it back to life again,” says Garry.

The Ford’s are restaurateurs through and through, having owned businesses since 1996, and are used to having two restaurants in operation at the same time. Previously the two were commuting between their Trafalgar St premises, Ford’s, and the White Morph Restaurant in Kaikoura, but in November last year that business was lost Proud to be chosen plumbers to fire damage. of the Panama Kitchen & Bar Having salvaged as much as they could, Kerry and Garry are now excited to introduce their fifth Garry and Kerry Ford are now the proud owners of venture to the both Ford’s on Trafalgar St and Panama Kitchen and Nelson populaBar on the corner of Collingwood and Hardy St. tion, and having both restaurants in the same town “should be ed the renovation work, and their first night of dining was as busy as it gets. “We a piece of cake,” says Kerry.

There are some beautiful natural wood tables, some of those were from our Kaikoura restaurant, we want it to have a different look and feel to Ford’s,” says Garry.

Their location puts them right alongside several other bistro pubs and craft beer suppliers, but their setup allows for the best of worlds with quality beverages and cuisine.

Their beer from Italian manufacturer Peroni, and Moa beer, are both available at Panama, which is the only place in Nelson you will find it on tap. “There is a great craft beer theme this end of Nelson with the Sprig and Fern, The Freehouse, and so on that we really wanted to be amongst, but we all have our differences so I think we all complement each other well,” says Kerry.

Panama also features a downstairs cellar which is now visible from the dining room. “We’ve made sure with the glass floor panels that people can see into there, and for us it’s wonderful storage and it just feels like you’re bringing the place back to life, which is pretty cool.”

Walk with us puts shoes on kids Monique Bergman Reporter

monique@waimeaweekly.co.nz

For eight Stoke School children, receiving new shoes is allowing them to take a new step into the world of sports.

The Walk With Us charity has provided eight needy Stoke kids with new footwear, much to the delight of their parents.

Stoke School principal, Peter Mitchener, says these kids have always been on the peripheral of sport and may not have been able to participate because they didn’t have the right equipment. "They are at the age now where they want to play sport and this has taken the weight off parent’s shoulders and definitely helped make these kids feel comfortable to try new sports”.

The Walk With Us charity is a non-profit organisation that’s mission is to provide free school and sports footwear and socks to children in need aged between five and 13 years in the Nelson-Tasman region.

Last year their charity auction raised $15,000 for the children and they are hoping to raise the same amount this year.

This year’s auction has some fantastic prizes on offer from ASB Aquatic Centre gym memberships, Fresh Choice

In our disposable society people have got used to simply throwing away things that may have broken and replacing them with something new. But as people become more money-savvy and more conscious of their impact on the environment, it’s a good idea to remind them that throwing something away isn’t the best option if it can be fixed. Check out the advertisers on this page for ways you can save money without having to buy a brand new one!

Student wins first round of mountainbike series

Henry Jaine and Ingrid Richter won the opening round of the Nelson Mountainbike Club's crosscountry series in the Richmond Hills.

Henry blitzed the field in last Sunday's race that started in Easby Park in Richmond and climbed up the Escaltor Track before bombing back down through Lodestone Gully and Bermed Monster.

The Waimea College student completed four laps of the demanding single track course in a fast one hour 15 minutes to finish 13 minutes ahead of Masters 1 winner Dean Fulton.

Ingrid was just as impressive completing three laps in 1hr 11min 48sec to hold off Susie Wood (1hr 16min 16sec) and Caitlin Holmes (1hr 20min 28sec).

The second round of the four-race series will be held at the Kaiteriteri Mountainbike Park on November 9.

Anyone who watched Tasman Makos wing, James Lowe, playing in his younger days shouldn't be surprised that he is the team's leading try scorer - certainly not his father Geoff anyway.

James, 23, has scored eight tries so far this season breaking Liam Squire’s record set last year and he's hoping to get the opportunity to extend that to nine or even 10 when the Makos play Taranaki in the ITM Cup final in New Plymouth on Saturday.

But Geoff jokes that James is losing his try scoring touch after regularly scoring 50 or 60 a season firstly for Stoke and then Waimea Old Boys JAB teams.

"When he started playing rugby in the Stoke under-7 team I said I'd give him a dollar for every try he scored," Geoff recalls. "I think he got 70 tries that year and so I just said I'd take him to Mc-

Donalds instead and he was happy."

And Geoff can take some of the credit for that blistering speed having passed on some super-fast genes to his son.

"I was the Motueka High School sprint champion although I had some really good coaches because our PE teachers were Francis Silke

who was the New Zealand sprint champion and Trevor Morris who was an All Black. I played on the wing like James too until I became a teenager and found beer got too fat and then I played loose forward."

James says he is looking forward to Saturday's game and adds that he is not surprised

the Makos made the final.

"If you had asked me at the start of the season, if I thought we'd make the final, I would have said 'yes'. All the boys are playing really well and we have a core of players that have been together for three or more years which is critical.

"When we beat Canterbury in the semifinal, we were cool and collected. We aren't overawed by these big teams anymore."

Unfortunately James' number one supporter, his father, won't be there on Saturday.

Geoff insists that's because all the return flights from New Plymouth to Nelson on Sunday are booked out and he doesn't want to miss work on Monday. However, James jokes that it may be more do with Geoff 's fear of flying than being a diligent employee at Eurocell. "He's such a whimp about flying."

71 years between tennis champions

There may have been 71 years between tennis players, Jean Walker of Nelson and Kapiti's Antonia Lawson, but there was nothing between on the scoreboard them when they took to the court for a friendly game at Teapot Valley Christian Camp last week.

Antonia was staying at the camp on a school trip with Raumati Primary last week.

When Teapot Valley manager, Christine Glass, found out Antonia was a nationally ranked junior, she contacted her friend Jean, 83, to arrange a game of tennis.

Jean and Antonia's father, Lane, teamed up against Antonia and one of her schoolmates, Samuel Kingi, for a thrilling three-setter and Lane says he was astounded at Jean's speed and skill. Antonia and Samuel won the match in a tiebreak, 6-2, 5-7, 11-9.

"She can really hit the ball," Lane says. "I thought she might be a little slow but she is really, really good."

However, Lane and Antonia shouldn't have been surprised because Jean is one of the coun-

Local lads on trial All the Nonstop supporters wish the Oliver Clan well with the up-coming New Zealand MTF Moto Trials Championship, to be held over Labour weekend in the Top of the South.

The Oliver clan have all been riding some form of two-wheeled contraption from an early age, and this becomes very apparent on most weekends when you see them all riding together, having fun at what they most enjoy.

The three sons of Stephen Oliver, Andrew, Nick and Peter, have ridden Moto trials bikes for many years and have become very accomplished at this form of racing.

All three have Junior NZ Championship and Oceanic titles to their credit; taking after their father who has multiple NZ National titles, along with many Enduro and MX championship achievements over the last four decades. In recent years, the NonStop “Team Xtreme” has been travelling the country, entertaining the crowds under the Goldpine banner, performing at such events as the Mystery Creek Field Days, CRC Speed Show, Toys for Boys and the likes. “This has been a great experience and character building

Members of the NonStop Adventure team from left, Nick, Stephen, Andy and Peter Oliver with their bikes, ahead of the NZ MTF Moto Trials Champs this weekend. for the boys”, says their father. The Olivers are also well known in Japan, where they have been guest riders in the Idemitsu Ihatove Trial on several occasions and have made many Japanese friends over the last decade. This event emphasises having fun and taking part, rather than gaining a title. It is the largest trials event

in the world. Stephen and his family were so sold on the concept they have adopted a similar format and, since 2010, run the NZ Ihatove Adventure Trial here in Nelson every February. As long-time supporters of the sport, the family decided 2014 was the time to re-join competitions here in New Zealand and it appears that they still

have what it takes. Father, Stephen, has just taken out this year’s masters South Island Championship, while Nick won the Pro class and younger brother Peter had a convincing win in the A grade.

This Labour weekend sees the Nelson Motorcycle Club hosting the NZ MTF Moto Trials Championship throughout the three days. Local members Patrick Dillon, Daniel Clarke, Dylan Cox, Karl Clarke, Craig Wassell, Peter Oliver, Nick Oliver, Andrew Oliver and Stephen Oliver, are all strong contenders for podium finishes; however, they will have to work hard as there are many internationallyexperienced riders including the reigning NZ and Australian champion Jake Whittaker, along with UK and World Motor Trial rider Jack Sheppard and other riders from the North Island, keen to stamp their mark. NonStop Adventure and their supporters would like to wish our local lads all the best for a successful and fun-filled weekend.

For more details of the event please check out the Nelson Motor Cycle Club website: www.nmcc.org.nz

The colourful sights and sounds of roller derby came to Tahunanui skating rink on Saturday night when the Nelson Bays Sirens of Smash Allsorts team took on Otautahi Roller Derby League.

The Sirens of Smash Allsorts fielded a mixed team of novice and experienced skaters, which allowed the newer recruits the opportunity to show their skills. The Nelson side claimed victory with a 301-99 win over the Otautahi team.

The team, mainly made up of working mums, trains twice a week for two hours and is in a rebuilding phase.
