Andrew Fleming, 47, last week pleaded guilty, via video link in the Nelson District Court, to all charges relating to the April 30 accident on Waimea Rd. The parents of the boy, who cannot be named due to a suppression order, were driving home from a friend’s house when they saw headlights before it slammed

head-on into their car.

The expectant mother was rushed to Nelson Hospital where she was put under general anaesthetic and had her son via c-section at just 30-weeks.

The next morning the mother and her son were flown to Wellington Hospital but over the course of five days, he deteriorated. Results

of an MRI scan showed that there was severe bleeding on his brain and he wouldn’t survive.

The baby died just five days after he was born.

The father now wants to leave the incident behind him.

“I’m just glad it’s all over and [Fleming’s] now somewhere he can think about it all. I hope his

“I was captain of my school fencing team in intermediate. We won a local tournament in Christchurch.”

“I got a tattoo on my last day of high school. I showed it to my dean and she thought it was pretty cool.”

‘I hope something good can come of this’ FROM PAGE 1 causing injury. He answered guilty to all charges.

At a previous appearance in the Nelson District Court, he had entered not guilty pleas and elected a trial by jury.

The courtroom heard how he had two previous convictions for driving with excess breath alcohol and on the night of the crash his blood alcohol level was 255mg per litre of blood, the legal limit is 50.

Defence lawyer Tony Bamford requested Fleming be remanded on bail until his sentenc-

ing date. This was to allow him time to revisit his medical consultants to deal with the ongoing effects of the crash.

Judge Tony Zohrab responded that medical help would be available to Fleming in prison, which was the only appropriate option due to the nature of the offending.

“I’m told you’ve had some issues in terms of the crash ... the offending took place in April and in my view appropriate medical help will be available to you in prison.”

Fleming was remanded in custody to be sentenced on December 20.

Woman sold $6000 of fake items online A 26-year-old woman who ‘cut and pasted’ listings from Ebay to items that never existed has been convicted for her actions.

Jade Ransom-Hall set up multiple fake Facebook profiles under the names of Dan Newman and Ryan Goodall over the month of June, a Nelson District courtroom heard on Monday.

Several fake email accounts were also created, each linked to a mobile number to allow her to use Facebook Messenger.

On July 1 she listed her first item on the “anything hunting nz” Facebook page under the fake

profile of Dan Newman.

She offered a rangefinder or hunting scope for $400 plus $10 for shipping, which was purchased by the first victim.

Over the next month she sold nineteen more items that she never had in her possession.

She sold GPS dog collars, a Samsung Galaxy Note 8, more tracking collars, a Playstation 4 and finally, on August 27, she used TradeMe to sell a thermal vision telescope for $1300. Ransom-Hall says she was “short of funds to meet day-to-day expenses” and admitted that she cut and pasted images from the online sale site

ginning

Ebay and claimed them as her own.

Defence lawyer Kelly Hennessey says that at the time she was in a bad space both financially and emotionally.

Judge Tony Zohrab convicted her on eight counts of obtaining by deception and sentenced her to 100 hours community service. “If you are called up again in the next 12 months for similar charges I’ll be taking quite a different approach,” says Judge Zohrab.

Ransom-Hall was also ordered to pay $5945 in reparation to her victims at the rate of $20 per week.

Teacher strike: ‘We’ve hit crisis point’ Kate Russell

Free Shipping on online orderS

Unanswered teacher job adverts and desperate pleas for relievers are hitting Nelson schools hard, as teachers continue their battle for better conditions.

The region’s 500 primary and intermediate teachers and principals are preparing to walk off the job next Thursday as part of a week of proposed nationwide rolling strikes.

The Nelson strikes will fall on November 15.

On Monday, NZEI and the Ministry entered “urgent” bargaining. As of time of publication, no new offers are on the table to address either pay or time. NZEI have lodged claims for a 16 percent pay rise and employment of a special educational needs coordinator. After the first strike, the Ministry offered 9.3 percent over three years across the board.

NZEI Nelson Primary Teachers co-ordinator Stacey Ashley says time is running out.

“Chris Hipkins announced that 850 classrooms will not have teachers next year at this stage, and it’s happening in Nelson.

“There have been schools here that have advertised jobs and have had no applicants.

it’s important to realise that sexuality needs to be nurtured, and a healthy sex life has a positive effect on people’s relationships.

Until you have a conversation you may not even be aware of what you want. don’t be shy, call in and say hi.

The wet weather made way for cider lovers at Founders Park on Saturday as thousands packed in for the third annual Cider Fest.

The celebration of cider saw about 2600 people descend on the festival – all hoping to taste the best ciders in the country.

Grace Hearn of Nelson Venues, which organised the event, says that it was a huge success, especially considering jonty@nelsonweekly.co.nz Reporter

Jonty Dine

the forecast wasn’t meant to be great.

“On the day though the sun shone and that definitely helped.

“Already we have had some great feedback from cidermakers and consumers.”

The region’s biggest supplier of cider boasted more than 80 varieties of cider on tap for the festival.

Newlyweds Benjamin and Lydia Pearce said the festival was the perfect way to end their honeymoon.

The Auckland cider lovers said

their seven days in the cider capital of the country had been incredible.

“Today is our one-week anniversary, we spent our honeymoon in Nelson, went to Collingwood, Golden Bay and today is the last day, great to have a few drinks in great weather to top it off.”

It was a local celebration on Friday night too, as Peckhams, from Upper Moutere won the premium award at the New Zealand Cider Awards.

And Grace says next year is already booked in. The festival

NEWS Bryan Adams to rock Nelson: Canadian rock star Bryan Adams is heading to Nelson to take punters a little closer to Heaven in March.

Sharon finishes her race Man who saved her life last year walked Sunday’s half marathon with her

Andrew Board A year ago Craig Vercoe met Sharon McDonald at the Nelson Half Marathon in rather dire circumstances.

Sharon had just suffered a massive heart attack minutes into the 21.1km walk race as Craig was walking towards Saxton Athletics track for the start of the half marathon run.

He performed CPR that would save her life.

Twelve months on Craig and Sharon met again at the Nelson Half, this time to compete in it side-by-side.

“We ran into each other in the street one day and I asked how she was and she mentioned that she was walking again and hoping to do the Nelson Half and it came up in conversation that we should do it together,” says Craig.

For Sharon the whole week leading up to the race was emotional.

“I was nervous but after what happened last year I was determined to get fit. I did a lot more training but I still felt a bit worried before the race, hoping I finished this time.”

They did, in three hours, one minute and 23 seconds, earning them each a first place in their respective age group.

Craig says his focus was making sure Sharon enjoyed the day.

“I was just happy to be out there and to see her enjoy it. It was a beautiful day and it was nice to be with her doing what she enjoys.

“Early on there were a few

jokes about the year before, we tried to keep it light hearted. But the main focus was to just enjoy it.”

After the race Sharon presented Craig with a plaque featuring a photo and a verse she wrote, highlighting her gratitude.

Craig says it was “a very nice gesture” but he feels that anyone would have done the same in a similar situation.

“I hope anyone else would do the same, it’s just what you do.”

A record 675 runners and walkers took part in one of the four challenges on offer at the festival of running with Nelson College teacher Phil Costley winning the feature half marathon in a time of 1 hour, 13 mins, 35 seconds.

Orange Dog is top dog Locally Owned and Operated

Stoke business wins supreme Chamber of Commerce award Jonty Dine Reporter

jonty@nelsonweekly.co.nz

Fifteen years ago, Jason Monopoli and his wife Jennifer started a business in their lounge.

A conversation with an acquaintance led to the discovery that the ‘Service sticker’, that non-assuming sticker that workshops put in the corner of a vehicle’s windscreen, were not customized or charged for.

“All service stickers to that point were supplied free-of-charge by the major oil suppliers such as Mobil or Castrol, and featured their own logo and involved print runs in the hundreds of thousands.”

The gap in the market led to the birth of Orange Dog, now based in Wakatu Estate in Stoke.

“At the time, no one was doing what we are doing so, as well as starting a new business with very little experience, we also had to create an entirely new market.”

Jason says creating the need involved finding a way to effectively target those workshops, illustrate

11

the marketing opportunities that customised service stickers presented and then convince them to change a work-life habit and then actually pay for them.

Fast forward 15 years and the automotive print suppliers took out the Supreme Award at the 2018 Nelson Tasman Chamber of Commerce Business Awards on Friday night.

Director Jason says the win is testament to his hard-working staff behind the scenes.

“We have always stayed low key, we haven’t really put ourselves out there, but we decided to enter the awards as a team building thing which ruined ‘our under the radar’ approach a bit.”

Jason says now that they have had the weekend to let it sink in, he is incredibly proud of what his team has achieved.

“I think it is our niche as a business that sets us apart. We compete with other bigger businesses because we just decided to focus on one aspect and do it really well.”

Now the company is looking to grow even further afield.

Checkmate for Nelson Intermediate Charles Anderson Samuel Clark reckons there are some good life lessons to be learned from the game of chess.

“There is strategy, decision making. It has it all.”

Which is just as well because Samuel was part of the five-student Nelson Intermediate School team that recently came away with fourth place at the Chess Power Nationals in Auckland.

“It’s nervous at the start but with chess, when you get into it, it gets easier.”

The team were the top South Island

team in the competition and were there because they won the regional competition.

The team’s event works by each of the members playing individual games with their points being added up at the end. In the individual event Samuel, Alexandre and Idris came in first, second and third.

“We have all known how to play since we were little,” says Samuel.

“But we all started getting into it when we were year seven.”

The boys are off to secondary school next year but say they will keep their passion for chess with them.

Dog walkers head to the moon

GALA: St Joseph’s Spring Gala was in full swing on Sunday afternoon with plenty to keep the whole family entertained. The usual draw cards: sweet stalls, white elephant stall and delicious food were on offer, but this year also offered a few extras. A haunted house scared those courageous enough to enter and entertainment from The Recliners were the main act for listening pleasure.

St Joseph school pupils Isabela Collins, Jessie Edmondson, Eve Doak and Alara Swarbrick manned their hand-made sweet pop station. The girls say it was their idea to put together the sugary stick treats and they all had a hand in making them. Photo: Sara Hollyman.

Let us turn your dream into a reality

More than 40 dogs and their two-legged companions blasted off from Isel Park on Sunday in an attempt to walk the distance to the moon.

The event was one of many held around the country over the weekend to officially launch SPCA’s ‘Walk Your Dog to the Moon’ campaign.

Animal lovers are encouraged to participate in jointly walking 385,500kms – the distance from earth to the moon - over the month of November, to raise funds for the SPCA. The campaign aims to raise awareness and funds for animal cruelty.

SPCA Nelson manager Donna Walzl says it was a great opportunity for the community to get together and have a bit of fun.

She says if successful the campaign will become an annual event. Anyone wishing to register can do so at www.walktothemoon.co.nz A $12 registration fee includes a doggy pedometer, doggy bandana and a welcome pack.

'Wall of Remembrance' a tribute to veterans Charles Anderson Editor

charles@nelsonweekly.co.nz

For the first time all 3,600 Nelsonians who served in the Great War have been recognised in one place.

The ‘Wall of Remembrance’ is a project 20 years in the making after Eileen Thawley and Sid Daughtrey first started manually recording the names of those who had died, by scouring the cemeteries around the region.

The 10-metre banner now features 3670 local names who fought, and the 680 who died, in WW1. It acknowledges with gratitude, the experience and sacrifice of these people.

Peter Milward, who helped with the project, says it was about bring families back together.

Many brothers who died in the Great War had never been on the same cenotaph for a variety of reasons.

"This wall of remembrance was all about service and so for the first time we are showing the 680 who died."

Peter was in awe of the women who started the project.

"Eileen and Sid started collecting the names of those died by driving around Kohatu, Dovedale and Collingwood and all these places, gathering the names together. And that was all done pre-computer.

It's a huge thing, an absolutely

amazing thing to do."

The council will string the wall across Selwyn Place for the anniversary of the Armistice which takes place on Sunday, November 11.

The celebrations will see "Histrionics" present their new play "Armistice at Compiegne” based on the actual signing of the Armistice in a railway carriage in France 100 years ago.

An art installation created using thousands of flax poppies will be unveiled by artists and the local community.

The event will be held on the first weekend of the popular Upper Trafalgar St closure, where cars are excluded to create expanded outside eating and drinking areas.

Diwali overflows with colour Sara Hollyman Reporter

sara@nelsonweekly.co.nz

The Nelson Centre of Music and Arts was bursting at the seams for this year’s Diwali Festival.

The Hindu community gathered together in a flamboyant evening of music, dance and colour on Sunday to celebrate the annual festival of lights.

The traditional festival symbolises the triumph of light over dark, good over evil, knowledge over ignorance. Hanuman, who along with his wife Prema, had a hand in organising this year’s festival says it is traditionally celebrated in a variety of ways in different parts of the world.

He says that, previously, the festival had been celebrated at NMIT but they hadn’t heard

about anything being organised this year, so decided to take it on themselves.

“We’re really into creating more community. Punjabi, Indian, Fijian Indian and Kiwis, among others, all came together and that’s what it’s about - really bringing everyone together.”

Hanuman thought about 20 people were asked to wait until others left the venue, as it was full.

The evening offered an array of both Indian and Nepali dance performances with both traditional and fusion mantra music followed by a traditional meal.

Susan Vather arrived at the festival around 6.30pm with her family, but they were turned away.

“We came and were told the NCMA was at full capacity and they couldn’t let anyone else in.”

She hoped that next year they chose a bigger venue or a different location.

Hanuman says they will definitely look at a larger space next year but says they would like to continue to support NCMA. “We might look at using the auditorium, but we will definitely need a larger space than this year, especially if we advertise it, which we didn’t really do this year.”

Early electioneering claims at NCC: Those Nelson city ratepayers that no doubt blew up when they read Acting Mayor Ian Barker’s statement defending the poor performance of Nelson City Council should go easy on Ian. After all, who would want to look back at the trail of debris left behind by Ian and his obviously out-oftouch cohorts mentioned in last week’s front page item.

The following calamities should remind them – Maitai walkway, Trafalgar Park seating, Trafalgar centre fiasco, new unnecessary Trafalgar Centre carpark, relocation of small bore rifle club, unknown amount spent on Saxton Stadium and ratepayer funds allowed to be distributed to community organisations by dubiously using the likes of the Regional Development Board to distribute the mon-

ey. The ballpark total of all the above is in excess of $15.5M. The disappearance off the radar screen of the Everyman fraud issue is something that ratepayers are concerned about and, of course, the continual bailout of the Brook Street sanctuary is something that should have been addressed long ago.

To be fair, it would appear from records that the Works Committee under Chairman Walker, is trying very hard to carry out its responsibilities but is often found struggling to compete with demands from activities outside its core.

Ian has also watched the Audit and Risk committee approve of massive amounts of un-budgeted money in the full knowledge that the Annual Plan had placed caps on certain projects. Of course, if he ever happens to visit Stoke township he will see on Greenmeadows the latest monument to NCC’s lack of control. This example,

Nelson Matters The Government’s decision to grant permanent residency to Czech national Karel Sroubek is unfair to the thousands of honest people wanting to make New Zealand their home. It also highlights the Government’s soft approach to illicit drugs and a naivety about the harm they cause in our community.

Karel Sroubek came to New Zealand on a fake passport. He is a kick boxer with gang affiliations. He was convicted for later smuggling ecstasy worth $375,000 into New Zealand and sentenced to six years in prison.

The parole board refused early release stating Mr Sroubek was “manifestly untruthful” and his

Opinion

ex-wife has sought a restraining order after receiving threats from prison. There is no justification for allowing this dishonest, violent convicted drug trafficker to stay in New Zealand.

This appalling immigration decision follows Labour and the Greens opposition to two important bills from National on the drug problems facing our communities.

I am a member of the Justice Select Committee hearing submissions on the Psychoactive Substances Bill that would toughen the law on these synthetic drugs.

The coroner advised us that there have been 45 deaths from these drugs in the last year and

St Johns are reporting 30 callouts a week. We heard heartbreaking stories of teenagers getting hooked, their battles to get clean, dealers hounding them for sales and their subsequent deaths. These synthetic drug dealers that can be responsible for multiple deaths face a maximum penalty of only two years. National wants to increase that to eight. I am appalled that Labour and the Greens are opposing this.

The Government has also opposed National’s bill to enable police to conduct roadside drug testing as for alcohol. Road fatalities from drug drivers exceeded those from drink drivers

No wonder he and his cohorts don’t want to look backwards. However, if upon reading this letter Ian is still in denial, he would be very welcome to attend the upcoming conference of ratepayer groups from around New Zealand being held on 10th and 11th November at the Ocean Lodge where it would be a fair bet that he will learn very quickly just how out of touch he is with ratepayer basic requirements.

Kerry Neal I would've called it accountability rather than electioneering. It appears there's been some pretty awful decisions made and would imagine the ratepayers have a right to some accountability. Delwyn Pauling At least Mel has the guts to say it as it is.

At this point I think his seat

around the table is one of the few that is safe. NCC needs more accountability for its failings, Nelsonians will hold this council to account on election day, hopefully there will be better candidates come forward for the next term. Steve Day Mel is doing a great job, I think Matt is getting better and I hope that he stands with Mel. Would be great to see who else backs Mel. The new CEO seems invisible, never even any comments from him, Reece as usual non-existent.

Colin Appleton At last some councillors are being honest about how poor the performance has been. It's pretty clear there needs to be a very large broom to clear out a lot of the current councillors. So many are too focused on being secretive and having their heads in the sand.

in the last year for the first time with 79 deaths compared to 70.

In Nelson we have had two appalling tragedies in the last year involving reckless driving from people off their face on drugs like meth and cannabis. We should be following Australia with random roadside saliva tests.

The Government argues that the drug problem is a health issue and that the focus should be on treatment. I totally support increased support for treatment and rehabilitation of drug users.

I also strongly support innovative education programmes that help give our young people the skills and wisdom to avoid drug

use. However we are being naïve in going soft on those who peddle and profit from the misery of these drugs.

Drug abuse is a significant factor in so many of our social problems like family violence, welfare dependency, child neglect, suicide and the epidemic around mental health. We need to get serious about stopping supply, preventative education as well as treatment and rehabilitation. We also need to send a clear message that happiness does not come in a bottle or a bong.

The 30th edition of the Nelson Pine Industries Nelson Tasman Chamber of Commerce Business Awards was celebrated by one of its biggest ever turnouts.

Five hundred people packed Nelson’s Trafalgar Centre to celebrate business excellence in the region, with Stoke-based Orange Dog winning the supreme award.

The night also featured the addition of two new members to the chamber’s hall of fame – Chris Bowater and the late Terry McCashin.

Both men were recognised for their long-standing commitment and involvement with the chamber, the business community and

the wider Nelson Tasman community.

Nelson Tasman Chamber of Commerce acting CEO Ru Collin says the awards evening was a wonderful reflection of the region’s diverse and thriving business community.

"We’re very proud of the 30-year history of the Awards. The evening itself is always a great opportunity to celebrate the great things that business does for our community.

Judges described the entrants as "caring as much for our people as they do their bottom line”.

The 2018 award winners were: Nelson Weekly/Waimea Weekly Emerging Business Award winner: Hemisphere Health.

Judges said Hemisphere Health is taking the visionary approach to occupational health and safety.

"We admired the business for providing a wraparound service with the objective of getting people in the Nelson Tasman region back to work."

Hemisphere Health Ltd, established in 2016 and based in Richmond, was founded by Scott and Gemma Newburn (Occupational Physician and Physiotherapist).

They both have extensive clinical experience in managing injuries and illnesses in relation to work, focused on returning workers to meaningful participation in work and life. Director Scott Newburn says, with a three and a half year old business and a three and a half year old child at home, he is very excited about the future.

"The strong board leadership assists the organisation’s success, with the staff being driven, efficient and passionate about pro-

Judges say the social return to the community is eighteen times every dollar spent.

Chelsea Routhan says that while statistics are great, the real impact is made on the children in the community.

She quoted one of the charities mentees to illustrate this. "Having a mentor is the best thing in the universe, unicorns too."

Wakatu Young Business Person of the Year: Benjamin Clark.

Master jeweller Benjamin Clark was unable to attend the awards due to a `stag do` in Australia, so his partner Amy accepted the award on his behalf.

Nelson College Sports Day, Circa 1930’s with the beginnings of the build in the background.

After four years out of action the Rutherford Boarding House will once again house Nelson College students.

Former boarders, local dignitaries and faculty were all present as the historic boarding house reopened its doors last week.

Headmaster Gary O'Shea says it was a momentous occasion for the school.

In April 2017, the Nelson College

Board of Trustees announced the decision to proceed with the refurbishment of Rutherford.

He says the board showed tremendous courage and vision to commence with the multi-million-dollar restoration project.

"This is a statement to our community that boarding is part of our school culture."

The college will now be able to accommodate 154 students at Ru-

It has taken five years and more than $3 million of school funds to renovate the buildings, which were constructed in the 1930s after the main school building was irreparably damaged in the 1929 Murchison Earthquake.

Gary says boarding is part of what makes Nelson College so special and Rutherford House is a testament to how important boarding is within the school.

"Boarding is central to the culture, it’s not just a day school, it’s a massive community and gives us that special character that we want to take into the fu-

Six years ago, the College’s boarding numbers were around about 180, which meant three boarding houses weren’t feasible.

The board conducted an extensive review which brought back several options including selling, bulldozing and walking away.

Board chairman Dennis Christian says it would have been easy to shut the houses and that it was a significant decision to refurbish Rutherford and Barnicoat.

"Demand for boarding has declined nationally but a renewed focus on providing appropriate opportunities and facilities has seen that trend begin to reverse."

He says boarding is just one aspect of the school's vision to enhance the experience for students

at Nelson College.

Built in 1931, Rutherford House is named after one of the College’s most distinguished Old Boys, Nobel Laureate, Ernest Rutherford (1887-1889).

Rutherford House was one of two boarding houses commissioned by the Board of Governors following the 1929 earthquake.

Laying of the Foundation Stone of Rutherford House took place on 25 November, 1930, by Nelson MP, and Minister of Education, Harry Atmore. He said the new “earthquake proof ” houses were designed in accordance with modern scientific requirements.

The boarding house comes equipped with high-speed internet, heating and luxury furnishings - a far cry from the army-like

Congratulations Nelson College.

The refurbishment of Rutherford House is an amazing achievement and we’re proud to have been able to be a part of it.

Gary says the refurbishments should hopefully ensure the 80-year-old buildings will sustain boarding at the school well into the next century.

Former boarders have spoken about the rigid, military-style culture of the past.

Students were even trained in the ways of war, regularly travelling to Trentham to learn to handle machine guns.

There was a hierarchy in the house that boarders had to adhere to.

New arrivals were quizzed on the members of the First XV and would be caned whether

or not they could name the whole team.

First year boys were also expected to clean the boots of the First XV in a system known as ‘fagging.’ Young ones who played up would be strung up by their pants on the boiler pipes. Boarders in the 50s endured bitterly cold winters as only thin canvas curtains separated them from the subzero temperatures outside.

There has always been a strict 'no girls' policy in the house

but that hasn’t stopped the boys sneaking a few in over the years. One boy was expelled in the 1970s after he was caught with his lady on the stairs. One former boarder says the ‘rough and tough’ lifestyle helped set him straight from the start.

Then, of course, there was the punishment from the teachers.

Certain masters would not be messed with due to their skill with the cane. They were known for their ability to hit the same spot to inflict maxi-

Ph: 03 545 8163 www.miracleasian.co.nz A year after opening the doors on their latest Asian restaurant, Bu-nga Krataitong and Nuttavut Rodsienglum are adding new and exciting twists to Miracle’s dining experience. Miracle is the couple’s seventh restaurant in the top of the South Island, alongside Lemongrass, Chai Yo [both in Richmond and Blenheim], Samko and Bamboo Garden.

Over the past year the couple have instilled their trademark of tasty food at reasonable prices at

Miracle, which has made their restaurant empire a success in the region.

Now, Bu-nga says, alongside its existing menu which has gone down a treat with locals, the restaurant is adding congee, a breakfast food with a similar consistency to porridge and a new opening time of 9am.

“Congee is very popular in Asia. It’s very tasty and we’re hoping that locals will give it a try.”

Miracle will also be serving yum cha all day. Previously it was solely a lunch feature but Bu’nga says the demand for it means that they are extending it throughout the day.

Yum Cha is the Chinese custom of eating small portions of different foods while sipping tea.

The success of yet another restaurant is an amazing story in itself. The pair started out operating a takeaway restaurant in Nile Street. From there they have launched seven restaurants in Nelson, Richmond and Blenheim including The Lemongrass, Chai Yo, Samko and Miracle.

With many restaurants servicing up Thai cuisine, Bu-nga and Nattavut made it their mission to create a venue with a twist when they established Miracle.

The restaurant’s menu is inspired by Nattavut’s family’s cooking back in Thailand, including a dinner menu, lunch menu and a takeaway menu.

Miracle’s Chinese starters include Siu Mai – steamed pork dumplings, Har Gow – steamed prawn dumplings, deep-fried Won Tons and pan-fried pork dumplings. While their Thai starters feature Thai fish cake and golden tiger prawns.

There are even more mouth-watering options as you move through the mains such as Kung Po chicken, Hainan ginger chicken, Szechuan twicecooked pork belly and orange beef with crushed cashew nuts.

Throughout their time as local restauranteurs, Bu-nga and Nuttavut have made some great relationship with their loyal customers and they say the past year in Miracle has been just as rewarding with many returning diners.

“We love our customers and we get really excited when we see people come back again and again, it means we’re doing our job right.”

So, whether you’re after a sit down meal, a light snack or a delicious takewaway for lunch or dinner, come and see the team at Miracle today. They’re also the perfect place to host a family gathering so give them a call to book a table.

Others have 4 to 8 cylinders and are quite powerful. The bigger cars will head over the Moutere Hills, out to Tasman and back along the coast to Mapua, Appleby, Waimea West and we’ll stop at Willow Bank for lunch,” says Jim. Adding to the spectacle, the entrants will be wearing period costumes. After lunch, the entourage will head back into town to visit a workshop where

cars are restored. In the evening, the participants will enjoy a prepaid dinner at Club Waimea.

Sunday, it’s ‘Heritage Cruise Day’ which travels past some historic homes, and around the waterfront before heading back out to Stoke for a photo shoot at Isel Park.

“The Veteran Rally is not like

Come and see history in action – in 10 years time, electric cars will have probably ‘taken over’.”

A ‘dream’ exhibition for Inge Kate Russell

It’s been 40 years in the making, but Nelson contemporary artist

Inge Stirling finally has her firstever public art exhibition.

Over the years, Inge has only sold her works privately - until now.

Her exhibition of 13 paintings started at Morri Street Café last Sunday and will run until 1 December. Inge says she found happiness in creating art at an early age.

“I’ve always dreamed of having my own exhibition. When I was seven, I used to put my artworks on my bedroom wall and charge my parents 10 cents to see them.”

Originally from The Netherlands, Inge moved to New Zealand in 1990 and settled in Nelson in 2005 after living in Wellington.

She says when she first moved to Nelson, she was put off exhibiting her work.

"I was told my artwork was ‘more Wellington style’ which sort of knocked my confidence.”

But after her marriage ended, Inge found solace in painting. “I had all this inspiration - I needed to get things out.” After Inge

“He said, ‘you need to exhibit this, you’re really talented’, and with his help, I have finally done it.”

Inge says her style can be described as a mix of modern and contemporary, with different methods used abstractly to represent parts her life journey.

This has resulted in one-off pieces that carry their own message.

Our bowlers are best Nelson’s Jo Edwards and Shannon McIllroy win Champion of Champions crowns Jonty Dine Reporter

jonty@nelsonweekly.co.nz

Nelson’s superstar bowls duo has been crowned champions of champions.

Shannon McIlroy and Jo Edwards have firmly stamped their mark as two of the world’s best singles exponents by taking out the 2018 World Champion of Champion Singles titles in Sydney.

In blistering heat, both Shannon and Jo stormed their way to the silverware.

Jo, who won gold at the Commonwealth Games earlier this year, defeated Malaysia’s Alyani Jamil in the women’s final at the St Johns Park Bowling Club in New South Wales.

She was able to secure a 10-7, 10-3 victory in the contest to become the first player to win the event on two occasions.

A commanding performance in the second set saw Jo stride out to a comfortable lead, a lead she failed to relinquish as she coasted to a straight-sets win to take out gold.

Jo progressed after beating Tammy Tham of Singapore 10-1, 10-2 in her semi.

Her maiden victory at the tournament came back in 2011 when she triumphed in Hong Kong.

Jo now boasts 12 majors, making her the most successful competitor in bowls history.

Meanwhile, Shannon ensured double success for New Zealand

He faced Hong Kong’s Tony Cheung, the Asian

Championships silver medallist, in the final.

Shannon would secure an 8-3,

9-2 victory to secure the title.

He is the first male to hold both this title and the World Championship Singles at the same time.

Shannon says it was a very proud moment for him. “It took a lot of games to win to just make it to the event then to play another 15 games on top is pretty massive.”

He says every international event is tough. “The players are so good these days compared to 10 years ago, so you have to be on your game to win.”

The world champion says to be the only player to have held the world’s and world champ of champs at the same time is a huge achievement.

“I’m absolutely stoked that I’m the person to achieve it.”

Nelson teen a Crusader Jonty Dine Reporter

jonty@nelsonweekly.co.nz

The announcement of the 2019 Super Rugby squads was a relief for Leicester Faingaanuku in more ways than one.

Having joined the union at just 15, Leicester was the youngest signing in Tasman Rugby history. Now, he continues his meteoric rise with the nine-time Super Rugby champion Crusaders.

The 18-year-old put pen to paper three weeks ago but had to keep the signing under wraps.

“Knowing I was going to be playing Super next season was tough to keep inside.”

When the squads were made public last week, the 102kg utility could finally break the news to his family and friends.

“It felt so good to tell everyone, it still feels unreal, though.”

He says he will be star struck to rub shoulder with his idols.

Having spent some time in Crusaders pre-season camp, Leicester says he was always leaning toward the franchise.

“They are a champion side and to develop as a player down there is an opportunity any kid would

The former Nelson College students says it is a dream come true for him and his family.

“To do what I love as a job and play rugby for the next few years as a living is unreal.”

He says he plans to be a sponge once in the Crusaders environment.

“I will just look to learn off them and pick their brains as much as I can.”

Leicester, who played for the New Zealand schools’ team as a year 12 and at the World Cup earlier this year, has strong rugby roots.

His father, Malakai, played for Tonga at the 1999 Rugby World Cup and his brother, Tima is a regular in the Mako starting XV this season.

Including Leicester, twenty of the 2018 Mako squad picked up Super Rugby contracts for next season as well a couple of former favourites returning to the country.

Marty Banks will re-join the Highlanders, where he became something of a cult figure, while James Marshall, who was part of the Hurricanes' 2016 title-winning squad, returns from overseas to link up with the ‘Canes again.

SportS TENNIS: The Lucas Cup will remain in Nelson for another year.

Nelson pipped its Marlborough rivals 9-7 at the Nelson Tennis Club on Sunday. The tennis was tantalizingly tight and if Marlborough Tennis Association managed to win the last mixed doubles to even the scores, a count back of games would have been required. However, Nelson held off the Marlburians to defend its title in thrilling fashion.

RUGBY: The Tasman Mako haven’t had to look far for their 2019 coaching team.

The departure of head coach Leon MacDonald following the Mako’s 2018 Mitre 10 Cup campaign meant a reshuffle was required at the top of the Tasman coaching tree. Fortunately, the right men for the job were close at hand. Next season the Mako head coaching role will be shared

by Andrew Goodman (36) and Clarke Dermody (38), both assistant coaches to MacDonald this year.

Goodman is an assistant coach at the Crusaders while Dermody has been the set piece coach at the Highlanders since 2014. The co-coaches will continue their Super Rugby roles before joining

forces in the Top of the South for the 2019 Mako campaign. They will be assisted by Shane Christie who, like Goodman, was a previous Mako captain and also part of MacDonald’s coaching team this season. Christie will have responsibility for the forwards.

SEVENS: The Tasman sevens circuit kicked off on Saturday with Marist and Motueka drawing first blood for the season. Marist A claimed the men’s title at the tournament staged at Renwick Domain on Saturday, proving too hot for Kahurangi in the final, winning 17-5. Meanwhile, Motueka High Senior beat their fellow Moteka High Girls combination to take out the women’s final 26-12. Buller beat Moutere 23-17 to place third and fourth respectively in the women’s grade, while Waimea Old Boys downed Wanderers 22-19 to claim third in the men’s section. In the men’s semis the slick Marist A combination thrashed Waimea Old Boys 38-0 while Kahurangi got up 27-7 over Wanderers to book their place in the decider. The Bowl final was won by Riwaka who beat Buller 24-20, while Central won the Plate and finished fifth after downing hosts Renwick 2612. Next week the sevens action shifts to Motueka for the second tournament in the annual series.

Thrilling tie sees Shield stay in Nelson

Heat PumPs • air Conditioning under Floor Water Heat PumPs Ventilation • duCted sYstems

Peter Grigg It came down to the final delivery, but the Newman Shield will stay in Nelson after a thrilling tie at Saxton Oval on Sunday.

A swing and a miss and a scampered bye ensured Nelson Pine Griffins maintained their grasp on the Newman Shield in a high scoring encounter against Marlborough.

The visitors' total of 289 was led by a majestic innings of 116 from Probodha Arthavidu, who provided the major substance to Marlborough’s effort. Josh Poole provided a more than able lieutenant as his half century contributed his fair share of their 138-run partnership for the third wicket.

Debutant opening batsman Tom Sutherland looked sound at the top of the order after opening bowler Sam Baxendine gave Nelson an early sniff with a wicket in his opening over. From there it was a tough day at the office for the home bowling attack. The inform Matthew Stretch added impetus towards the end of the innings as they pushed up towards the 300 mark.

Nelson’s bowling attack worked hard on the benign

The fielding faltered a little under the pressure of the Marlborough onslaught. Marlborough’s total of 289/6 from their 50 overs appeared a daunting challenge for Nelsonians.

Tom Ingham and Joey O’Connor guaranteed that the required run rate never got out of hand in an aggressive 50 run opening stand. O’Connor and new skipper Mason Thelin then kept the momentum going and when O’Connor departed Paddy Howes refused to allow the bowlers to dominate. Through nice stroke

play complemented with exemplary running between the wickets the Zohrab twins, David and Thomas, continued to keep the score ticking over.

Their 61-run partnership for the fifth wicket allowed for a couple of timely cameos from Devon Serrurier and Tugaga to set up the finale.

Seven runs were required for the victory or six for the tie off the final over bowled by Tarin Mason. Three singles and a two by Baxendine resulted in Aldridge facing the final ball of the hundredth over of the day.

He did enough to keep the shield in Nelson’s trophy cabinet, for now at least.

Jonty Dine Claudia Green clean-bowled one of her sporting heroes with just her seventh delivery in first-class cricket.

The Nelson seamer made her Central Hinds debut against Otago last month and in her second over managed to castle superstar Suzie Bates who had her half century in sight.

“It was pretty special,” Claudia says. “I was so excited and didn’t believe it happened at first, a pretty good one to have as your maiden wicket.”

Claudia finished with figures of 1/10 off her two overs but couldn’t stop Central going down to the Southerners by 23 runs.

Despite her dream debut, the Hinds have made a disastrous start to its T20 campaign, losing all five fixtures to date.

Claudia is in her first season with the senior side, having spent the last five years in the Hinds U21’s.

she was recently appointed Nelson Cricket’s inaugural female development officer.

Due to a lack of female players, Claudia joined the Wakatu men’s second team while at Waimea College.

She hopes to ensure young female cricketers aren’t hampered by the same limitations and her efforts are already paying dividends.

This season, for the first time, the Wakatu club will field a women’s side, as well as the Nelson Nyxons.

Claudia says this gives young women a team to strive for where in the past we haven’t had that.

“I want to make sure we can foster girls of all ages coming through.”

Claudia says she is trying to create pathways for girls and help make the game fun, fast and friendly.

Any girls interested in taking up the game are encouraged to speak to Claudia at Nelson Cricket. She can be contacted at 548 2204.

21 Dec 1932 - 10 Nov 2008 Sad and sudden was the call, so very loved by one and all, your memory is as dear today, as in the hour you slipped away, now the passing of ten years draws near, we think back on times we used to share, the camping trips and holidays, and barbeques on Christmas day, the things you built with clever hands, like yachts that raced across the sands, these memories they still remain, and we hope one day we’ll meet again.
