Mystery, murder and intrigue Jill Mutch discovered her ability to write stage shows when she needed to enhance a production while raising funds for the building of the Celtic Barn in Waipu. With the success of several murder mystery plays, Jill is now focussing on her latest show to help raise funds for the Northland Pipe Band. With a storyline that includes the royal family, drama, mystery, murder and intrigue, Jill says she is excited to be involved, yet again, with helping the community raise much-needed funds through continued on page 8 … her creative writing ability.

“After running the store successfully for several years from the current establishment, compliance issues have resulted in the tough investment decision to replace the old building,” said St John Bream Bay area committee member, Bart de Ruiter. What is essentially a residential house and associated outbuildings will be replaced with one modern building to provide an open space retail area and increased room for sorting and storing donations made by the public. It is expected that the first visible work will begin in May with the removal of the current buildings, followed by site preparations and construction of the new store, with completion anticipated in late November. “Unfortunately, a suitable alternative site to trade from has not been found, so the store will be closed for this period, although a popup presence at local markets remains a possibility,” says Mr de Ruiter. “St John would like to thank all our donors, customers, and paid and volunteer staff for their support over the years, and we look forward to welcoming everyone into our new building before the end of the year.

“The St John store was initially set up to raise funds for the new Mangawhai ambulance station and continues to support the charitable community health services St John provides locally to help residents live stronger, more resilient lives.” St John has just completed its nationwide Hearts of Gold appeal, which ran from April 5 to April 11. It had a goal of raising $1.8 million as its most significant fundraising campaign of the calendar year, which was cancelled last year due to the Covid-19 lockdown. “As a charitable organisation, we are grateful for the funding we receive from the government, but St John has to fundraise to plug a gap in our operating costs in order to maintain the highest standard of lifesaving equipment and a m b u l a n c e s ,” s ay s CEO Peter Bradley. While the main appeal ran for a week, there will be activity throughout April. St John is encouraging businesses, schools, and organisations throughout the country to join in and support this year’s campaign however they can. Donations can be made in any ASB branch across New Zealand. ¢

community boards. We’ll also be asking what communities people identify with, as many of us feel connected to areas in our district other than where we live. Every person who lives in our district has the right to be fairly and effectively represented in council. Now is the time to make your voice heard.” For Bream Bay residents, this might mean opting for more representation and another councillor to equal the three who represent the people of Denby, the northern lobe of Whangarei. Crucial to the current discussion on the implementation of Maori wards is whether a new, additional councillor is needed in this forthcoming scenario, taking the number who work with the mayor up to 14. An online survey, accessed via wdc. gotv.nz, is already open to gauge public opinion. Drop-in sessions in person at Whangarei’s central library will continue from 11am to noon every Wednesday from April 7 until May 5. A proposal will be manufactured from this data, with formal submissions expected in June this year. ¢

Bream Bay is currently served by two nominally rural councillors and has seen rapid population increases in recent years. Between 2013 and 2018, when a representation review was last undertaken, the population expanded by 26 per cent. Since that time, Marsden Cove, One Tree Point and Ruakaka have all experienced a surge in property development and housing. “Our decision to establish Maori wards has triggered the need for a representation review, something that would usually only happen once every six years,” says Mayor Sheryl Mai. “The 2021 Representation Review looks at how Whangarei District Council represents our communities, making sure everyone in our district feels they have fair and effective representation in council. “If that’s not the case, this review is our opportunity to make some changes. We’ll be looking at how our wards should be arranged, how many councillors we should have, whether we should vote by ward or districtwide, and whether we should have

A creeper in the forest

Property and tax update u by Corinne Smith, Altitude Advisors Ltd, director and chartered accountant

On March 23 2021, changes to tax rules for investment properties took investors by surprise. There has been widespread commentary, with more to come as the details unfold.

u by Liz Clark

Northland has a significant variety of reptilian species scattered throughout its forests and gardens; one of these is the New Zealand common or Raukawa gecko.

Found mainly in forested areas, the Raukawa is a small- to mediumsized gecko with an average length of 15.5cm. Its colouring is predominantly grey or brown with spotted patterning. This gecko has greenish-brown eyes and a pink-lined mouth with a greytipped pink tongue. Raukawa prefer covered areas, including rocky crevices and undergrowth, without any permanent shade. The geckos can be located in trees but are more common on the forest floor. Their diet mainly consists of live insects, including spiders, flies, moths and other insects. They also eat easily digestible native plant material,

avoiding anything unpalatable and difficult to digest. Pollen, nectar and sap are also eaten to provide high energy during colder periods. Studies have shown that the Ruakawa has a long lifespan — up to 37 years. The geckos reproduce annually, with the female laying several eggs under logs, bark layers or other protected places. Before the introduction of nonnative predatory species, the main predator for Raukawa was the morepork. However, introduced rats, cats and other mammalian predators are now the gecko’s main threat for continued survival. ¢

home exemption If a property switches from being the owner’s main home for more than 12 months, then a proportion of the sale profits of a property sold during the bright-line period will be taxed, based on the ratio of time that the property was and wasn’t used as the main home. The existing main home exemption rules continue to apply for residential property acquired on or after March 29 2018, and before March 27 2021. Interest deductibility The rules are graduated depending on when the property is acquired: • For residential property acquired on or after March 27 2021, taxpayers won’t be able to claim deductions for interest from October 1 2021 • For properties acquired before March 27 2021, interest on loans can still be claimed as an expense. From October 1 2021– March 31 2023, the amount claimable will be reduced to 75%, reducing by 25% each following income year, until it is phased out completely from April 1 2025. Property developers and builders who build properties to sell will still be able to claim their interest expenses. Our Recommendation Some of the proposals are subject to consultation. If you own a residential rental or one used for shortstay accommodation, or if you are considering buying a second property, please contact us to discuss the tax implications. ¢

Weekend adventure — the hollow earth

5

u by Andy Bryenton

This weekend, why not get out of your comfort zone and travel back in time thousands of years to explore a place that was once the seabed and is now deep underground? Right in our own back yard there are many small adventures waiting to be discovered. One of the most accessible for all ages is the track to the Waipu Caves, a meandering trail through a landscape of limestone karst. Huge boulders made from tiny sea creatures turned to stone by immense time and pressure, then eroded into fantastical shapes by running water. The Department of Conservation administers the Waipu Caves Track, calling it ‘a two-kilometre walk, which leads you through a picturesque karst limestone landscape, across farmland and regenerating bush to a point where you can take in magnificent views. Within the entrance to the caves themselves, you will find stalactites, stalagmites and glow worms.’ The track leads up and over a hillside strewn with weirdly shaped boulders and native bush, a fantasy backdrop worthy of Lord of the Rings. The caves themselves, made famous in the music video to local band Alien Weaponry’s breakout hit Kai Tangata, are easy to access but slippery and dark. Wear grippy, waterproof shoes, carry a pole or walking pick, and bring a torch with plenty of battery life. It is necessary to get your feet submerged to access the glow-worm sections of the cave. While the deeper caverns are recommended for experienced spelunkers only, the parts that can

p Explore the wonders of the underground world — stalactites drip from the ceiling of Waipu Caves, formed during centuries as water seeps through the limestone rocks

be tackled with average fitness and a common torch are spectacular. The track above the caves rises up the side of the ‘hollow’ hill and ends on a ridgeline looking out to the Hen and Chickens Islands and Bream Bay. While the track is easy in most parts, it rises steeply toward the end, and can be muddy and slippery; a good thing you’ll come equipped for some light caving.

How to get there; from State Highway One, take Shoemaker Road into the hills north of Waipu, turn on to Waipu Caves Road, then proceed until you find a parking area with a large flat field. An orange marker post denotes the start of the track.

You’ll need one and a half to two hours to walk the track. Sturdy, waterproof shoes with grip. A pole or walking pick. Clothes that can get muddy, a light lunch, torch and spare batteries. Dogs are not permitted. ¢

Goodness in a pot u by Liz Clark

With the ever-decreasing size of sections and budgets becoming the norm, room for a vegetable garden is becoming somewhat more of an issue. Surprisingly, however, growing vegetables can be easily achieved in the most compact of spaces, including any plain or decorative pot. Even nine-litre buckets can be utilised to produce a range of vegetables without ever having to return to the supermarket. Northland has a warmer than average temperature compared to other regions of New Zealand. Many vegetables can be grown year-round if given protection from frost and cold wind during winter. Any sized pot can be used for growing vegetables as long as it’s suited to the chosen plant’s growing requirements. A few things to remember are: ensuring you use a good-quality compost/potting mix combination, compact-type plants and shelter from cold wind and frost. A sunny, northfacing position is also beneficial. Utilise a covered deck or patio and place your pots for easy access. A look into the range of vegetables that can be grown in small spaces comes up with at least 15 varieties, perhaps more. Tuberous crops such as potatoes and kumara can both be grown in large pots. Some gardeners have even used old sacks to grow their potatoes in. Kumara can be easily grown from slips and placed

into deep pots; the plants need a hard surface at the base to ensure successful tuber formation. One year, I tried carrots in a small bucket and had a great crop as a result. Try out smaller, sweeter varieties such as Paris Market and Rainbow Mix. The longer the carrot variety — the deeper the pot required. Other veggies such as broccoli, cauliflower and cabbage take readily to container growing. Use a large wide pot and place up to four plants inside it. Peas also take readily to growing in containers. Self-supporting dwarf varieties such as Tom Thumb grow to a height of 60cm without the need for a climbing frame. Another to try out with some form of support is Dwarf Sugar Snap. A sweet variety, also growing to 60cm, it tastes as good as its larger cousin of the same type. For salad greens, lettuce, of course, is a mainstay. Any type of lettuce can be used; the most versatile is the mesclun mixed loose-leaf varieties that come in various shades of red, yellow and green. Baby spinach is another, along with Swiss chard, Rainbow Lights, rocket and mizuna. Other vegetables suitable for container growing are cucumber, eggplant, beans, beetroot, capsicum, dwarf melon and squash.

Protecting Curry’s kauri

The Wellsford Lions Club led an event last Saturday celebrating with the local community in preparation for the completion of the restoration work at Curry’s Bush. The bush is reopening in the near future after being closed for nearly two years. The Auckland Council’s Kauri Dieback mitigation team have liaised with the community to restore the tracks and take measures to protect the kauri in the reserve. “It is a small reserve with special importance to the community,” says Wellsford Lions Club president Steve Levett. “A visual presentation gave the community a hint of the progress of the work inside the bush and some education of why the work has been undertaken. The work involved creating new raised boardwalks that are wheelchair accessible, resurfacing tracks to kauri dry track standards and installing new culverts. “Part of the track was repositioned and a steel perimeter fence incorporated to provide a safe environment for kauri. Two hygiene stations, one with wheelchair access, ensure our kauri are kept safe. “We were delighted to see so many Wellsford locals enjoying the day. We are appreciative of more projects like this in our area.” The kauri dieback mitigation team shared tracks in local areas across the Auckland region have been closed for mitigation works to reduce the spread

of the disease or closed altogether. Upgrading the tracks to kauri standard and diverting people away from kauri roots reduces the risk of soil being transported around the reserve. “This is to protect high-value kauri ecosystems like the mature kahikatea forest in Curry’s Bush. Our investment is to protect healthy kauri. We appreciate people’s patience as this important work was carried out.” Rodney Ward Councillor Greg Sayers thanked the project team for their efforts engaging with local

stakeholders, in particular, Te Uri o Hau and local community volunteer Caroline Milner, for her efforts in drawing the community together around the work in the reserve. Ms Milner says it is exciting that Rodney College and Wellsford School can utilise this space as a living classroom and educational hub. “I saw the many opportunities this project could provide for Wellsford, and it has been excellent working alongside the mitigation staff to get the best result. The insistence that it

be mobility friendly means that all of our community can enjoy this space. “Wellsford Lions brought the event together, and long time resident Herby Skipper gave a personal history account. “People expressed their appreciation for this much enhanced local asset, and Wellsford school children followed with a wonderful kapa haka performance.” A blessing and reopening of the reserve will take place in approximately four weeks’ time. ¢

p Jill Mutch has discovered that ideas for new shows often formulate in the middle of the night, and she enjoys nothing more than seeing the audience laughing at the characters on stage

Mystery, murder and intrigue u by Ann van Engelen

Jill Mutch came up with the idea of writing murder mystery plays as a way to help raise funds for community projects in Waipu and surrounding areas since 2012. “The plays are a narrated show where the cast has no idea what is going to happen,” says playwright/ producer Jill. “There are no practises, and they only get told who their character is and how it relates to the others. They are equally terrified and excited while backstage waiting for the stage manager to push them through the door when the story gets to their part. The narrator then takes over with what they do and what they say. “The shows began in 2012 as a way to raise money to build the Celtic Barn in Waipu. My friend Juanita was in the RSA, and she would rope me into helping with fundraising projects. To raise funds for the barn, she purchased a murder mystery play about a 60th birthday. It was based on Gone with the Wind, but half of the cast had nothing to do or say. They were just standing there, so I wrote parts for them, and

the comedy was a raging success. “The Celtic Barn was a $2 million project with the first meetings held in 2011 and the building opening in 2015. It is the new community hall in Caledonian Park in Waipu. The Caledonian Trust granted the site for the building. It replaced the old Coronation Hall as it was no longer big enough for functions. We refurbished

“The shows began in 2012 as a way to raise money

the old hall and built the new facility next door so they could be used together if need be. “The next play we did had an audience of 200. It was a wedding

script we purchased, but again, we decided we could write it better, and so we began writing our own plays.” Jill was on the committee for the Highland Games, and a Northland Caledonian Pipeband member based in Whangarei told her they had no money to buy things. They service the whole of Northland and do seven Anzac parades and a number of other parades during the year. “I offered my help to get grants and then attended a meeting and discovered I was on the committee. I have been involved for the past three years, and now I have my pen out again to help the band raise muchneeded funds.” Jill writes and narrates the plays herself, although her latest show has two narrators. “We usually bump off two or three people in each show, and the local crowd just love it. This year’s

For our costumes, we acquire clothing from op shops and alter them as required

production is based on the Queen of England in the 1950s. She is travelling from London to Scotland, as she does every year, and is going to inaugurate a lowly sausage maker. She has no idea what he is being inaugurated for, but the Queen Mother does. It has a great storyline with various secrets coming out. “For our costumes, we acquire clothing from op shops and alter them as required. In this story, a lot of the pipe band are in it with their uniforms.” Jill originates from Northern Wairoa and has Scottish ancestry. “I love being involved with the pipe band, although I don’t play. The music is fabulous, and there are a lot of young members as well. There are lots of different tartans for the different clans in the area, and I used to know them all. I am very proud of my family history. “When I was young, I went to Dargaville High School. The boys

attended the Army Cadets and the girls would do things like dramas, and I was always helping. When I left school, I completed six months of nursing in Auckland and then worked in the television industry. I operated the film reels and worked in the studios on live shows as a vision switcher with the director. “I married, and we moved to Whangarei, where I worked at the radio station. “Later we moved to Bream Bay for my husband’s job at the power station and oil refinery. Back then, the Ruakaka Surf Club needed a new roof, so I wrote and ran a fashion through the decade show for two nights, and it was a huge success. “I get the ideas in the middle of the night. They just appear and can be quite loopy. Once the concept gets rolling and you set the characters and costumes, you can see it in your

mind’s eye. I do have periods where I get stuck, which is frustrating. I love that feeling of being on stage when you have the audience interested and in your hand within the first few minutes. If you are losing them, the atmosphere changes, so you have to lift it, quickly. “All the characters are peculiar; that is how it works. Sometimes the costumes are elaborate — others are plain. We enhance clothing like wedding dresses if we need to, and everyone has a reason to kill everyone else. There are lots of suspects with lots of victims. “It is exciting. The cast are terrified and shaking out the back, but once I walk on stage with my script, we are away. “It is a wonderful way to give to the local community and include some of the pipe band. For this play, pipe band members will greet people and escort them to their seats, set and clean up

as well as act in the play. Having the show in your head and transferring it on to paper is different. You see it on the computer screen and think it is good but often, when you transfer it to paper and print it, you rearrange things. “At times, I have wanted to hide under the bed and not come out or cry out of frustration as you realise the storyline or some characters need changing, and you have to start all over again. “In the end, when you are on stage, it all comes together, and the audience has a good laugh. “I love seeing the audience laugh. One man told us he hadn’t laughed and laughed for 28 years. That kind of feedback makes it all worth it.” The next murder mystery play, Willy Benderover’s Big Bash, is on Saturday, May 29 at the Celtic Barn in Waipu.

Following a year disrupted by Covid-19, in which Anzac services were unable to be held, as usual, the traditional dawn parades will once again be convened in the Kaipara and Whangarei for 2021. Anzac day falls on Sunday, April 25 this year, with services and other activities planned to mark the occasion. The mayors of both Whangarei and Kaipara are expected to attend services in their respective regional capitals, along with other dignitaries and returned soldiers, sailors and air force personnel, medics, emergency service people and cadet organisations. The main Anzac Day services for those in the Whangarei and Bream Bay areas centre on the RSA clubs and memorials in Hakaru, near Mangawhai, and in Whangarei. The traditional Whangarei dawn parade leaves the Rust Avenue headquarters of the RSA before dawn, approximately 5.45 am, and proceeds via closed streets to Laurie Hall Park where a cenotaph of remembrance stands. Here, the dawn service will be held as the sun rises at 6am. Hakaru RSA in the Mangawhai area will convene for a commemorative

service at 10.30am, welcoming citizens from the eastern reaches of the Kaipara to join them in remembrance. Refreshments will be served after a traditional ceremony, which is once again, predicted to draw large crowds.

White Chocolate and Macadamia cookie u by Jessica Keesing

Now, who doesn’t love a cookie, especially one that is extremely morish, and you can devour the whole lot within hours of them being baked. This is a cookie recipe that my mum and stepdad fight over the cookies for. In fact, I took some of the lot I baked for this photo down to them, and mum informed me that my stepdad tried to claim them as his own and wasn’t going to share. I for one can’t help but steal a cookie straight off the tray once I’ve pulled them from the oven, warm and gorgeously soft chocolate — what a dreamy treat. If you aren’t into macadamia nuts, you could just give them a miss or swap it with another nut that you desire. Still, I really do recommend you try them with the macadamia because it’s just so good. In saying that, they are an expensive nut, and for this, you need a couple of bags. Unless you don’t go as heavy on the nuts. This recipe does call for some chill time in the fridge; about an hour and a half should do the trick. This is to help the cookie not become a wee sad pancake on the baking tray. INGREDIENTS 2¾ cups flour 1 tsp baking soda 1 tsp salt 250g butter (softened) 1 cup brown sugar ½ cup white sugar 2 eggs 2 tsp vanilla extract 1½ cups white chocolate chips 1½ cups macadamia nuts (chopped) METHOD Preheat oven to 180C. Sift flour, salt and baking soda together. Cream butter, and sugars together. Then add eggs one at a time and add in vanilla extract until all is combined. Mix flour mixture into the butter and egg mix, and combine until it just comes together. Add in chocolate chips and macadamia nuts and finish mixing. Chill in the fridge for an hour and a half. Roll into balls. I’d say I make mine around a golf ball size, because we like big cookies and let them melt. I must stress, don’t squish them, leave them as is, and the oven will do all the work. Bake for 15–20 minutes or until golden brown.

Sprinting the streets u by Ann van Engelen

More than 60 race and rally cars entered the annual Northland Car Club Street Ruakaka Sprint last Sunday.

p Brady Wild placed first at the Northland Car Club Ruakaka Street Sprint last weekend

THERE IS A FULL TIME PRIVATE CLINIC IN WHANGAREI, RUN BY WOMEN FOR WOMEN’S HEALTH PROBLEMS

Delivering personalised goodbyes for over 70 years.

“We had a large mixture of cars competing from the late-1990s through to late models,” says event team member Val Hart. “The race began at Sime Road by the tavern, around to Kepa Road twice and down past Niwa. It is just over a kilometre long and takes each driver just over a minute of racing to complete the track. It was an amazing day starting with the weather — it was a completely different day from Saturday’s deluge of rain. “As a driver, you are competing against the clock for the fastest time. One car goes, and when it is out of sight, the next begins. The event has lots of Motorsport New Zealand rules, and we set hay bales up in front of the power poles, telecommunication buildings and other areas for security. “It is with thanks to Mark Costello and his sponsorship from Bindons, as well as the helpers, that made the day happen. The race ran very smoothly. It was an exciting day. There were a lot of spectators around the course, which was really encouraging. It is nice to have people cheering you on as you race around. You could hear

their excitement when the drivers did something unexpected.” Val drove a Mitsubishi Evo 3 and her husband Steve raced a Subaru. “I have been driving since I was really young as my dad Alan Strong was racing since before I was born. I am pleased with how I did on the day. When I was about 14 years old, I started doing low key events and then progressed into other parts of the sport. “Steve and I also race at other club events such as hill climbs and things. We haven’t ventured to the big rallies yet — we mostly do low-key stuff. As drivers, we all enjoy the adrenalin of going around the track. “Like any sport, you are trying to do your best. We aim for the fastest time on the day, even though you know there are tons of faster cars than you on the field. You also build great friendships and get to know a lot of people. “Brady Wild placed first in his WRX STi, winning the day with a time of 1:15.23. Jason Gill in his VW Polo came second at 1:17.86, and Ben Huband, Bravo in his cross cart, took third place at 1:18.24.” ¢

Such as troublesome bleeding; menopause concerns; abnormal smears; pelvic pain; pain or irritation ‘down there’; fertility issues; non–surgery options for prolapse and bladder problems.

Thank you Northland, for the trust you place in us.

Many of the common problems can be treated with simple minor procedures done either at the clinic or at Kensington Hospital. The emphasis at the clinic is on making sure women have as much information as possible about their own health on which to base their decisions as to the type of treatment that is best for them. Dr. Rachel Moss, the specialist gynaecologist, can see you to make a thorough gynaecological assessment and discuss options for treatment. A GP referral can be helpful but is not essential.
