Editor says...

While enjoying a coffee at Canopius Café in Papakura recently, I noticed the attractive upper floor windows of the Farmers department store – a reminder of yesteryear.

However, I also noticed the upper storey was short on fresh paint. It made me take a closer look around and, sadly, while some buildings were spruce, others were positively shabby which reflected on the whole precinct.

I then took note of buildings in Pukekohe’s King Street and, again, saw that some sadly lacked upkeep. I have long wondered why councils can’t (or won’t) instigate a bylaw requiring strip shopping centres to meet a certain standard of aesthetics – after all in residential areas, householders are required to maintain berms.

This should be up to individual landlords but many seem to be reneging on keeping their investment maintained.

In my mind, not only are landlords recalcitrant in their maintenance responsibilities but so too is council and even tenants, to a degree. Personally, I wouldn’t want to showcase my business in a scruffy property but then I can

on the cover MUNE IN JUNE: An icon of New Zealand film and theatre, Ian Mune has been treading the boards and directing action for more than half a century.

Recently, South magazine caught up with this acclaimed writer/ actor/director to chat about his career in ‘show biz’, from his days dabbling in drama at Wesley College right through to his most recent role, as Winston Churchill in Auckland Theatre Company’s The Audience. To read our interview, see pages 18-19.

hardly blame tenants for expecting landlords to pay for a paint job.

If everyone dodges maintenance, it means not just one or two buildings suffer but the whole street. In many European countries, towns are required to whitewash buildings on a regular (sometimes annual) basis so how hard can it be for New Zealand councils to require something similar – perhaps a coat of paint every five years and why not a collectively agreed, uniform street colour or theme with individual signage?

I feel strongly about civic pride and cannot understand why, after investing in a building, anyone would let it become run down.

Perhaps, a big wake-up call is warranted and if individual owners won’t recognise their responsibility to a town or suburb then, perhaps, its time council made them.

Doc Edge Film Festival Now – June 9, various locations, Auckland City

Auckland Festival of Photography – Rangatahi Matter Now – June 15, Franklin Arts Centre, 12 Massey Ave, Pukekohe

Visions of ‘the Edge’ don’t necessarily require backstage passes to a U2 concert. In fact, thanks to this festival, we can all view life as seen through a variety of lenses. From artists attempting to express themselves in North Korea, to a portrait of ‘superfans’, one woman’s crusade against ISIS and a strange take on Silicon Valley, this year’s films lead viewers along many paths Hollywood would fear to tread.

See docedge.nz for a full schedule.

Focused on the talents of Pukekohe photographer, Denise Matene, this exhibition explores how photography can strike a chord with young New Zealanders. For more information (including a full schedule for the Auckland Festival of Photography) see photographyfestival.org.nz.

The Mystery of Belonging Here Now – July 13, Franklin Arts Centre, The Centre 12 Massey Ave, Pukekohe

The Dancing Years June 6, from 11am, Pukekohe Town Hall, Massey Avenue, Pukekohe, and June 13, Hawkins Theatre, 13 Ray Small Dr, Papakura

Work by aspiring photographers from Pukekohe High is set to star during this exhibition. Designed to coincide with the arrival of the Matariki star cluster, this display could well usher in the arrival of one or two future stars itself. See facebook.com/FranklinArtsCentre for more information.

Back when songs were romantic, rhythmic and rousing, the world swung through an era which has been celebrated ever since. From the 1920s to the late 1940s, dancing was part of life, as this show reveals.

Loaded with big band bravado, this concert features tunes that set the mood to move. See operatunity.co.nz for more information.

Whether hitting the city or hanging around closer to home, Aucklanders from the South side have plenty of options when it comes to entertainment. So, to help readers decide where they want to be, when surrounded by the who’s who, here’s a quick guide to our picks of the month.

Once – the musical June 27 – July 14, times vary, ASB Waterfront Theatre, 138 Halsey St, Auckland City

More information is accessible via eventbrite.com – search for ‘Pink Ribbon’.

Based on the internationally-acclaimed film of the same name (celebrated by Academy, Grammy Award, Olivier and Tony Award wins) this musical follows the story of Dublin busker and the Czech musician who inspires him to dream again. After enthralling Broadway audiences, Once is set to pluck heart-strings right here in Auckland. More information via oncemusical.co.nz or asbwaterfronttheatre.co.nz.

The Nutcracker June 29-30, times vary, Hawkins Theatre, 13 Ray Small Dr, Papakura

Lisa Lorrell – singing it loud!

Celebrated singer and entertainer, Lisa Lorrell reckons if she can still belt out the numbers in 15 years’ time, she’ll delighted but she also told HELEN PERRY it would be even better if she could do as renowned jazz singer, Cleo Laine has done and that’s to be singing at 90.

Pulling up outside Lisa Lorrell’s Pokeno home it’s hard to imagine that a performer of her calibre and international experience is also a down to earth wife, mum and teacher, living in a relatively new suburban street away from the limelight.

However, it is soon evident that Lisa is no ordinary mum. As my interview progresses I wonder how she can keep up a timetable, which includes, being a wife and also mother to two busy children (8 and 10 years), two hours daily singing practice (often late at night), two days teaching a week at Dilworth College, ongoing private and corporate bookings (day and night) song research and compilation, choir mistress (x2) and, more recently, her new concert project, Elevenses.

The latter, a series of monthly concerts, is combined with a high tea experience and operates across seven regional townships (see story opposite). But that’s just a few of the activities which, seemingly, leave little time to sleep.

What’s more, she blithely says: “I’ve had an amazing career – as well as performing on my home ground there were seven years in the UK where I did everything from musical theatre through to my own touring cabaret show, won awards, [including Female Vocalist of the Year and runner-up in the 1999 Stairway to the Stars National Showcase] and starred in West End Showstoppers. Now, I enjoy a fantastic balance of home life and work.

“With Elevenses, I love the joy I can bring to so many people and I’m singing songs I might never have learnt. On the other hand, teaching vocals at Dilworth for the past 10 years and more recently musical theatre and dance, too, has been such a different experience.

South june 2019.indd 8

“Seeing the department’s parameters expand to beyond just the classical has been wonderful. To also see boys, who never considered music or dance as ‘macho’ enough for them, change their minds and even become fully involved in some of the school’s productions, is very satisfying. I’d love to see other college music departments expand in a similar way.

“Boys today are definitely exploring dance more, especially through new dimensions such as hip hop and rap.”

Having started out as a dancer herself – she studied ballet for 12 years and at 16 was accepted into the National School of Ballet in Wellington – Lisa says this formed the foundation for a musical theatre career.

“But at the time I didn’t’ know I could sing. I just wanted to dance.”

However, on moving to the capital, the teenager soon realised she was out of her depth.

“I wasn’t mature enough to cope with the ardent 80s lifestyle – there was a lot of speed around – and though I loved the dancing, I was pretty naive and found the new environment difficult. It wasn’t the life for me; I came home!”

Lisa returned to Penrose High School and soon auditioned for a school production but was also expected to sing – a talent she had not yet discovered.

“Amazingly, I found I had a voice; it became my new passion. I made it into the National Youth Choir of New Zealand and later became a pupil of Elizabeth Halliwell. I had several years under her tutelage during which time I embraced musical theatre, took drama coaching and then decided the only way to

progress was to go overseas.”

Lisa also studied drama with Sheila Summers for 12 months in order to gain experience and some qualifications so that she could study in the United Kingdom.

Heading to the UK in the late 1980s opened up a whole new pathway.

This time embarking on life far from home posed few problems. Lisa was awarded a place at the Italia Performing Arts School but chose to join the UK Holiday Cabaret circuit performing alongside some of England’s top jazz and cabaret artists before taking her own onewoman cabaret show on the road.

“I did all the holiday centres. The audiences were great; responsive, appreciative. I needed to be a versatile performer – my classical background and the move to musical theatre, help me adjust to the thrust into cabaret. That was a huge learning curve but I loved every minute.

“When working the circuit day in, day out, you can’t be condescending and fake; audiences want down to earth, ordinary people; they like to think they know you as a person.

Staying true to who you are is important.”

“Of course, coming from New Zealand, which few knew little about except that it was ‘small’, meant I was often asked questions such as ‘ my son lives in such and such [some part of NZ] do you know him?”

Despite thriving on her busy life, in 1998 Lisa returned home ….with a comedian in tow; “I had fallen in love.”

Her partner had been asked to write for local comedy duo [the late] McPhail and Gadsby, an opportunity too good to miss but eventually he and Lisa parted.

“I intended returning to the UK but I’d done some one-woman cabaret shows here and had also been named the Variety Artists Club of NZ’s Rising Star in 1999. I was getting work and was then asked to appear with Mark Hadlow and Ray Woolf in Golf – The Musical.

“It was brilliant. When that ended Mark suggested I keep working with him. I couldn’t say, no. He had me doing all sorts, singing, of course, but with loads of corny yet funny story lines. Playing so many different characters – you could be anyone you wanted to be – just fabulous!”

The wonder years lasted until Hadlow won a part as a dwarf in the Peter Jackson film, The Hobbit. It was time for Lisa to move on.

She admits those four years gave her ‘heaps of experience and a lot of confidence to keep tackling the New Zealand market.”

Back in the UK, there was heaps of work, I was never without it but here in NZ I had to rebuild my career and breaking into tight theatrical circles wasn’t easy.”

Nevertheless, the work continued to come in but when children followed a couple of years after her 2006 marriage to Richard, Lisa says some activities took a back seat although she still accepted engagements, taught vocals from home and then joined the (itinerant) music staff at Dilworth Senior School staff in 2009.

With her children now well settled into school, Lisa’s life has notched up several gears.

“It was about finding the right niche and I’ve found it… I get to be mum, teacher and performer. Best of all my new venture, Elevenses, has become my new passion.” (see story opposite page).

30/05/2019 3:13:34 p.m.

Morning Chorus on the rise Most Kiwis are familiar with ‘smoko’ or ‘morning tea’ but in the United Kingdom ‘ elevenses’ the work place ‘tea’ break taken at work a couple of hours before lunch – usually at 11am – has been something of an institution.

On the other hand, the modern day ‘high tea’ is generally served in the afternoon and comes with tea in a fine china pot plus dainty savouries and sweet treats such as scones, jam and cream.

It is, therefore, appropriate that the vivacious, Pokeno-based singer and entertainer Lisa Lorrell has named her ‘musically delicious’ concerts, Elevenses – the events combine high tea and music in the morning and it’s all done in good company.

The idea for Elevenses sprung from a concert Lisa took to a Mt Eden rest home five years ago.

“I wasn’t singing in retirement venues then I agreed to the request and the old folk loved it. But what struck me was the change in the audience as I sang.

“At first, many were pretty despondent, some slumped in their chairs, but as I progressed through songs from some of my favourite shows, people started sitting up and becoming more animated. Some started singing. I was so moved I decided to approach other rest homes and offer to provide entertainment.”

Lisa began singing regularly at retirement villages and rest homes, rewarded by the warm response from her audiences and by the beneficial impact music had even on those suffering from dementia.

“I’d done a course on the influence of music in early childhood and how it could assist spatial awareness, motor skills, maths, language and more. I reasoned, if it could do this for children, it must be able to help the aged and those regressing into the past.”

concerts in Pokeno, Waiuku, Te Aroha, Cambridge and Matamata.

“I know our audiences relish these events but just as importantly I get so much fulfilment, too. I’m adding to my repertoire every day.

In fact I can’t believe how many new songs, across every genre, I am learning. It’s not just the golden oldies; these audiences love everything – songs from the shows, Abba, David Bowie, Queen, Adele, just about everything you can think of.

“Importantly, while I am still doing other concerts and engagements, it is with the help of Richard – my soul mate and best friend but also a talented contemporary organist and sound engineers – that I can pursue Elevenses along with everything else.

“My great-grandfather used to accompany Gracie Fields – I must have inherited a lot from him because the pleasure I receive from performing is so rewarding. Who wouldn’t want to make people smile and sing?”

The next Elevenses concert is on June 14, 10am to 12pm at the Pukekoke East Hall, Pukekohe East Road ($20).

However, Lisa realised there were many seniors living at home who would love to attend concerts but didn’t have the means to pay for pricey tickets or the transport to get there.

“That’s when Elevenses really came into being and I liked the idea of going to outer areas and also including a special morning tea whilst charging just a nominal amount [$20].”

Enlisting the help of her retired parents, who had cooking and catering skills, she launched the first Elevenses concert in Te Aroha (Waihou to be exact) prior to last Christmas. Now, monthly concerts are in Pukekohe and Thames with bi-monthly

Held at Portobello Restaurant (Ed Street), the event which included raffles and an auction, raised almost $3000.00 for the Breast Cancer Foundation and was also attended by SOUTH photographer, WAYNE MARTIN who discovered this group was in the pink!

Karaka Hub

It’s anniversary time!

Karaka’s busy shopping hub at 71-75 Hingaia Rd is marking 12 months since its official opening although several companies were established much earlier in the first stage of building and others have since made it home.

With the completion of the total complex a year ago, the centre has ensured local residents have a wide variety of retail and professional services right on their doorstep. These have been further enhanced by the opening of an adjacent Z service station.

While the likes of hugely popular dining destination, Urban Soul Restaurant has been humming along for several years – a favourite at virtually any time of the day and for any occasion – there have been several newcomers too.

Lins Acupuncture and Wellness Centre moved into the centre last September. Providing acupuncture, muscular re-alignment and therapeutic massage, husband and wife owners, Eason and Elaine, both gained bachelor degrees from Tianjin TCM University in China and national diplomas from the NZ Chinese Medicine College.

Their knowledge, skill and care in delivering traditional Chinese Medicine techniques, has been welcomed.

Another newcomer, SBA Karaka

now provides easy, affordable, high quality accounting, taxation and business advisory services. The company’s aims is to ensure the small business community is able to have all financial information organised, in order to meet individual and business tax obligations be it GST, end of year returns, rental incomes and more, without distress.

Indeed locals don’t have to travel far for anything, including their travel plans. Humphrey & Turner ► Continued overleaf

Grooming can be difficult if you cat is getting stiff or has a sore mouth. You can help by clipping matted fur and grooming gently using soft brushes and damp cotton wool to clean their faces.

Some medications and/or dental treatment may help.

Other things to consider as your cat ages:

Older cats may need their claws trimmed to prevent them catching or becoming ingrown.

We can make life easier for frail and arthritic cats by using steps/ramps so they can get to their favourite spots and an indoor litter tray with low sides.

Cats need an increased calorie intake in their senior years, as they don’t utilise nutrients as well. There are formulated diets for this which may also contain supplements for joint and brain function.

Older cats tend to have decreased immune function, so help protect them by keeping parasite control and vaccinations up to date.

The issue with cats, however, is that they are masters of disguise when it comes to illness, so you may see no obvious signs even though your cat may be suffering.

Booby dazzler puts sparkle back A Pukekohe jeweller is in the pink with a fundraising project for women with breast cancer. ‘Boob beads’ are selling like hotcakes and giving encouragement to those undergoing treatment as ANGELA KEMP discovered.

Each year 3300 women in New Zealand are diagnosed with breast cancer and face months of treatment. It’s a difficult time but one which artisan jeweller Kenny McArthur is doing his best to make a little bit brighter.

“I spent about a year getting it right and did market research to ensure people wouldn’t be offended. It was important to make them as cost effective as possible to create an income stream for BCF,” says Kenny.

Two years ago Kenny and his wife, fitness guru Ginny McArthur, were heartbroken to hear a close friend had been diagnosed with breast cancer. Vanessa Lowe was just 38 when she was told she could face a full mastectomy.

Vanessa provided invaluable guidance in the design of the beads to ensure they weren’t in ‘bad taste’.

“I lost my sister to breast cancer when she was 44 so it was close to my heart.

Cancer affects everyone, it doesn’t matter what socio-economic group you are in,” says Kenny.

Vanessa underwent six months of gruelling treatment including radiotherapy and chemotherapy and throughout cherished the support she received from the McArthurs.

“Throughout my anguish my dear friends Ginny and Kenny were my solid support team.

One day they were over for tea and we started to talk about how when a child goes through cancer treatment they get these cool beads,” says Vanessa.

“I said I wanted a bead too but not just any bead, one shaped like a boob.”

Kenny developed a pair of perfectly pert silver boob beads for Vanessa to hang around her neck. Her radiotherapy nurses couldn’t stop talking about them and her friends loved and laughed at them.

“I developed a habit of playing with them for comfort whenever I was at the hospital,” she recalls.

The positive feedback from Vanessa’s beads prompted Kenny to investigate making them commercially to fundraise for cancer.

Since then he has made numerous boob beads in both silver and gold with 40 per cent of the proceeds of each sale going to the Breast Cancer Foundation. So far he’s given $6000 to the charity. www.southmagazine.co.nz

“The prototype was perfect, just booby enough without being obvious. I wanted to be able to wear them around my neck with pride but still with a little decorum,” she says.

At a Pink Ribbon breakfast for Breast Cancer at Half Moon Bay, Kenny launched his most ambitious boob bead to date: a diamond encrusted version with a whopping $6,700 price tag.

Modelled in 18ct gold and set with 1.85ct of diamonds the bead can only be described as a ‘booby dazzler’.

“There was a lot of interest and everybody loved it. It’s all about raising the profile of the BCF.” Kenny sells the beads through his wife’s website: ginnymcarthurjewellery.com and Wright’s Jewellers in King Street, Pukekohe.

The last word to Vanessa: “When he hung the shiny, perky boobs around my neck it was a euphoric feeling and it was the best piece of jewellery I’ve ever been given. I never imagined I would want any kind of momento of this horrendous journey, but these little boob beads are more precious to me than anything else I own.

“They remind me that I suffered, they remind me to consider what for, and they prove, every time I wear them that I survived.

“I’m proud to show my boobs: perfect, not damaged, but shining bright and brave.”

Cambridge curriculum: NOT JUST FOR BRIGHT STUDENTS There’s a common misconception that Cambridge International – the globally recognised, exam-based school curriculum – suits only the brightest learners.

with roline Lynch, Kieron and Ca la. el St d eorgia an daughters, G

Stella and Georgia have been at ACG Strathallan from the age of three.

Stella, in Year 11, is academic, and is flourishing under the Cambridge curriculum.

Danny O’Connor, principal of ACG Strathallan in Karaka, which offers the curriculum from primary school, is keen to put the record straight.

“Cambridge was introduced in a number of schools in New Zealand as a result of dissatisfaction with NCEA in the early 2000s,” he explains. “Unfortunately, some schools allowed only their brightest students to study Cambridge, which led to the perception that it was only for top academic students.

“The reality is that all students can do well under this curriculum.”

ACG Strathallan offers Cambridge at both primary and secondary school levels. Teachers say the curriculum is well structured, thorough and easy to understand.

Participating in advanced maths, science and global studies has kept her challenged, and she’ll complete A Level Maths a year early, allowing her to take an extra subject in Year 13.

One of its greatest strengths is its ability to be tailored to different academic levels.

“It provides a very structured programme which allows us to meet the needs of every student,” explains ACG Strathallan Primary School principal, Kristie Thomas.

“Every level is broken down into very specific and comprehensive

learning intentions. We know who has achieved which intention and what their next learning step will be. We ensure each student is taught at a level which meets their individual learning needs, regardless of the year they are in.”

Ms Thomas says parents also like it because they understand exactly what their child needs to work on – parents such as Caroline and Kieron Lynch, whose daughters

Georgia, Year 8, is more sporty.

For Caroline it was a relief to watch her step up academically as she transitioned from primary to secondary. She believes Cambridge gave both girls the right foundation.

“Most of the children here are not academic superstars, but they are getting a quality education with outstanding teaching. For Georgia, the academic support system she needed was there. Now she’s flying.”

Books to make kids smile KATT VS DOGG Sometimes it pays to keep one’s enemies close, if we’re to sniff our way out of trouble at least. In his latest children’s book, highlyacclaimed author, James Patterson, shares his inimitable humour once again as a clever ‘katt’ (named Molly) and a happygo-lucky ‘dogg’ (called Oscar) work together to find their way home.

“We had state-run radio, TV, and the Film Unit was part of the tourist board. Stepping away from that may have been an off-shoot, but it wasn’t what we were trying to do; our interest was just in telling a good yarn and earning enough money to pay the rent.”

Ian Mune – stages of life One of the most distinctive faces in New Zealand film and theatre, Ian Mune OBE has more than just a tale or two to tell. Recently, JON RAWLINSON had the privilege of hearing a few of these when speaking with this acclaimed actor, director and writer.

When residents of Paerata Rise head down Jonah Lomu Drive few would wonder after whom the street is named. Although there are no plans for an Ian Mune Ave as yet, with plenty more roads to be built one could well be on the horizon.

“It is quite sad just seeing the old farmland go – it had 400 acres of beautiful countryside – but it’s a fantastic project,” says Ian, who was an honoured guest at the development’s groundbreaking in 2016. “It’s good that it looks like [the college] will remain in the area.

I think [the developers] really do want to create a new community and Wesley College definitely helps with that.”

Although the school will, probably, move to new premises, it’s expected to remain within Paerata Rise.

It has been quite some time since

18 | south | june 2019

Ian first trod the boards at Wesley, but this acclaimed actor, writer and director recalls his school days fondly.

“I thought I’d like to be a farmer and Wesley was an agricultural college so I boarded there from third to the fifth form and enjoyed it immensely. We didn’t have drama classes as such but performed plays. Even then, I tended towards character roles – you have to be an extra four inches taller than me to be a leading man,” he laughs.

Ian may not have cultivated a career in farming (or teaching, which he later studied in Wellington) but his artistic roots were well tended locally.

“I’ve always been blessed by having damn good teachers who took an interest in me. At Wesley, it was the English master, Jack Balantyne. JLB was very encouraging but, at that time,

no one really even contemplated [making a living] from acting; the advice would have been ‘go to England, to drama school, and learn to become a Pom!” Part-way through teachers’ training college, Ian began working at Wellington’s Downstage Theatre.

He further sharpened his craft with the Welsh Theatre Company before returning to the capital, and then joining Auckland’s Mercury Theatre. Over the years, he’s played as many roles behind the camera or curtain as on stage or screen.

With regards to movies, Ian’s ‘highlight reel’ reads like a ‘what’s what’ of Kiwi cinema, writing, directing and/or acting in such films as Sleeping Dogs, Goodbye Pork Pie, Came a Hot Friday and What Becomes of the Broken Hearted?. He was even a second unit director (and played a small cameo) in Lord of the Rings.

Beginning in the ‘70s, Ian helped shape New Zealand’s unique on-screen identity; he credits a dinner party meeting as setting the stage for his switch of focus from theatre to film.

“Back then, there was a feeling that if you wanted something done, the Government had to do it. We had state-run radio, TV, and the Film Unit was part of the tourist board.

Stepping away from that may have been an off-shoot, but it wasn’t what we were trying to do; our interest was just in telling a good yarn and earning enough money to pay the rent,” he recalls.

“I ran into Roger [Donaldson] in about ‘71 or ’72 and we got on like a house on fire. We agreed there and then that we had to make a New Zealand movie; it took us a few years, but we got there.”

An audience with ‘Winston Churchill’ New Zealand film and theatre legend, Ian Mune, may not have dabbled in politics but he has become rather familiar with those who did. During Auckland Theatre Company’s most recent production, The Audience, Ian was an obvious choice to play Winston Churchill.

“I read the script and was startled at how moved I was,” he says. “It’s an incredible story and I think she [the Queen] would be intrigued to learn that the writer twigged so well to her characteristics.”

Written by Peter Morgan (creator of The Crown TV series), the production saw Ian reprise the role of Churchill, who he also played in the 2004 TV movie Countdown to D-Day. “Churchill was such a strong character and there’s plenty of material to work from. You look at all these depictions of him and everyone’s aiming to achieve the same thing. But, even with a historical figure, you have to put your own stamp on the role.

“Whoever you’re playing, you

shows, including Winners and Losers and Derrick, a one-off TV drama, which met with the ire of the puritanical Patricia Bartlett.

“Derrick was about a guy whose life comes off the rails. It did offend a lot of people, but we thought it was funny and it received good reviews.

Patricia really got stuck in, but she did us a favour – it was great publicity!”

The pair’s first feature film followed, an adaptation of CK Stead’s nightmarish dystopian novel, Smith’s Dream titled Sleeping Dogs (1975). Unlike another of his classic films, Goodbye Pork Pie (co-written with Geoff Murphy), it appears Sleeping Dogs will likely be left to lie, for now at least.

“I was a bit grumpy when Geoffrey told me about Pork Pie. I thought [remaking] it was a pretty silly idea, but when he said they’ll pay us for the script, I said: ‘tell them we think

have to ask: ‘who am I, where do I come from and what do I want?’

Every time you open your mouth or move a muscle, you’re trying to achieve something. You can’t just say the lines; you have to make yourself become the character by trying to achieve whatever it is they’re trying to achieve. That’s what brings a character to life.”

In recent years, Ian has also appeared in Auckland Theatre Company’s (ATC) productions of To Kill a Mockingbird and The Cherry Orchard, as well as directing Once on Chunuk Bair.

Although he’s not expecting to take to the stage for ATC again this season, he is keen to be involved in future.

“It would be nice,” he smiles.

“I’ve been an actor for more than 60 years and I’ll be involved in [theatre], one way or another, until I can’t walk anymore just because it’s what I do.”

I suggest that, even if he couldn’t walk he could always have a pop at playing Roosevelt; he laughs, but, really, it wouldn’t surprise me.

it’s a great idea’! I did quite enjoy [the remake] but I still don’t think it was necessary.

“I wouldn’t be interested in [remaking] Sleeping Dogs], but you never know,” he smiles in a way reminiscent of Rob Muldoon, who he has also depicted on screen.

Overall, Ian has preferred whichever medium (stage or screen) he’s been working in at any given time. However, he notes a crucial difference between the two: “Making a film is so artificial.

When you’re in the middle of a paddock with a couple of actors, the viewer doesn’t see the 30 or 40 crew standing around with lights and microphones – there’s a f-ing great army of people! The trick is not making it look that way on the screen.”

In many ways, the creative spark of a film begins with its writer,

although he says directing has allowed for more creative freedom.

“You’re told by people who have never written a word in their lives how to do it! I had people telling writers how to write – I never want to talk to any of those people ever again!” he exclaims.

“Directing isn’t about ‘directing’ people to do this or that; it’s about ensuring everyone knows which direction we’re going in.

You then give everyone, all very creative people, the information needed to do their thing. I like the independence of directing theatre (in particular) because you’re given the job of telling the story and you just get on with it.”

Ian is undoubtedly a pioneer of New Zealand film, but he’s reluctant to claim such a moniker himself.

“That’s for others to decide. It’s like when you paint a painting; it’s not

until someone else looks at it that it really becomes something; it’s the viewer or audience who will decide whether it’s any good or not.”

While his latest stage in life has seen him call ‘cut’ on film, another artistic avenue appears to have piqued Ian’s creative interest, reflecting one of his early duties of painting sets at Wellington’s Downstage Theatre.

“My wife died four years ago, which changed my life. I walked away from movies and didn’t want to have anything more to do with them. I’ve done some voice-overs and a bit of [stage] acting; I think I’ll keep it up as long as I enjoy it – and, it’s nice to be paid!

“But, I’m really enjoying my painting. In the near future I’m going to twist some gallery owner’s arm into giving me an exhibition – I hope. It terrifies me, but it’s what I’d like to do next.”

Hitting the tracks A retirement in the Magill household decreed a holiday was in order – Auckland to Wellington by train followed by a road trip visiting remote coastal towns on the North Island’s south east coast staying in AirBnbs before arriving in Napier. JES MAGILL recounts this holiday with a difference.

TAKING A ROAD LESS TRAVELLED

Retiree’s passion for trains saw us climbing aboard the Northern Explorer early one April morning.

We were pleasantly surprised – the train was more modern and the ride faster and smoother than we expected.

Day One dawned with grey skies and it was, ‘Cape Palliser here we come’. Taking SH2 from the capital we travelled over ‘Remutaka’ Hill (note official new spelling) and, taking a sharp right at Featherston, headed 40km south, past Lake Waiarapa to emerge at Palliser Bay’s wild coastline.

Expansive windows meant great views and cell phone coverage kicked in as we approached towns en route.

New Zealand’s longest running passenger service, the Northern Explorer covers 680km and, whizzing down the island’s backbone, we marvelled at Aotearoa’s iconic scenery afresh.

We saw pockets of native bush standing proud, red corrugated iron sheds dotting rolling green hillsides and viaducts over rivers and streams braiding through the terrain.

Highlights were the Raurimu Spiral and skimming through the Volcanic Plateau. A significant engineering heritage site, the Spiral solved the challenge of ascending 139m above the steep slopes between the Volcanic Plateau and ravines on the Whanganui River. Seeing

20 | south | june 2019

South june 2019.indd 20

mountains Ruapehu, Tongariro and Ngauruhoe was spectacular.

We reached the capital in 11 hours and loved every minute – good books and the occasional celebratory drink enhanced the journey. The staff were incredibly friendly too; they were great ambassadors for New Zealand.

Then followed a couple of days in Wellington soaking up its everappealing vibe with exhibitions, cafés and restaurants lined up and savoured. We stayed at the Bay

Plaza on Oriental Parade and for $140 a night it’s a great place if you’re not after something grand.

On our first night we walked just around the corner to Ortega Fish Shack for dinner. Known for quality seafood and steak, there was nothing shack-like about this place and I enjoyed the best eye fillet ever.

On the eve of our ‘roadie’ we dined at Havana Bar – a fantastic, awardwinning restaurant which felt so special, it took all our will to leave.

It was exhilarating, standing at the blustery water’s edge where we noticed polar-opposite places to stay on this coast of contrasts.

Above the beach there was the super-exclusive Wharekauhau Lodge while, lined up at sea level below, were truly dilapidated offgrid shacks belonging to obsessive fisher people.

Heading east towards the Cape we called in at Pirinoa, a blinkand-miss township with an entrepreneurial spirit.

Land Girl Coffee House owner, Andrea Didsbury had seen an opportunity catering to the multitudes of cyclists who ride the circuit from Martinborough around the lake. She ensured they were www.southmagazine.co.nz

Next up was a hearty seafood chowder at Lake Ferry Hotel overlooking Lake Onoke and Cook Straight. Nestled into the hillside, the hotel was the former departure and delivery point for passengers crossing the lake.

The hotel is an easy 40km south of Martinborough then it’s a half hour drive out to the Cape and lighthouse.

We followed narrow roads hugging the hills on one side and boisterous surf on the other. Climbing to the lighthouse in 80km winds, we held on real tight to those rails. At the top, the view was awe-inspiring and the wind so strong it was impossible to take photos.

There was a popular seal colony too with hundreds of ‘residents’.

Seal pups frolicked in the surf in a small bay while the adults sprawled over rocks and even took over the lawn of a holiday home.

We’d booked a property at nearby Paua Bay, a contemporary

family bach with a great kitchen, thankfully, because dining options were very limited. On an elevated site overlooking the strait, we experienced the force of nature from a safe distance; it was well worth staying the night in this remote and unique outpost.

A few kilometres west of Paua Bay is Ngawi, the tiny village famous for commercial crayfishing, more tractors per head of population globally and crazy boat launching.

Bulldozers steered the vessels down a steep shingle beach into the water on trailers with massive wheels and drawbars up to 10m long. Worth seeing! It was hard to get a population reading but the cray industry supports 20 to 30 boats.

Day Two: It was on to Castlepoint, population 1686 and 170km from the Cape. It’s a popular beach and holiday destination for Waiarapians; its also home to annual festive horse races on the beach.

Baches along the windswept seafront were mostly shabby, minus the chic, with modern homes

filling the hillsides to take in those stunning ocean views. There, it was just a short climb to the lighthouse where more breath-taking coastline was revealed and the pub lunch at Castlepoint Hotel & Guesthouse was spot on.

We stayed at Freddies Seaside Cottage, north of Castlepoint on Mataikona Road and for $150 a night, what a find – sea views, wood burner and gorgeous décor.

Our host Jill, another hospitality entrepreneur, had an equally entrepreneurial daughter Lucinda who operated her business, Rahui Coastal Loop, from her farm. From there, she offers one and threeday cycle adventures, has e-bikes for hire and can provide equally tasteful accommodation for those keen to completely relax, whether doing the cycle trail or not.

Day Three: We pushed on to Porongahau, population 195, still following Route 52 which we now knew was used mostly by farmers and locals. Caffeine and café addicts, take a thermos!

We had a hunch our Airbnb booking might not be up to scratch

and when we took a peek, this was confirmed. My Retiree thought he’d scored a bargain but at $75 you get what you pay for and there was no way we could stay.

Our three-night voucher waiting at gracious Oceans View Villa in Napier was looking very alluring and ringing ahead to confirm it’s availability, we jumped back in the car and headed north in the pouring rain.

Bliss. We ended our holiday on a high. Situated above Marine Parade, the villa, with mesmerising views over Hawke’s Bay and Cape Kidnappers, had welcoming décor, a wood burner and a yoga deck overlooking the sea with yoga mat provided. We’d love to go back with a group.

Three bedrooms, two bathrooms and plenty of places to relax gave us a sense of retreat and, being so close to town, meant we had the best of both worlds.

All up, our ‘road less travelled’ jaunt worked a treat. Next up, we’re tackling the South Island’s West Coast where more adventures and stunning scenery await.

Bags may seem like very simple inventions but, throughout human history, they have allowed mankind to (in some ‘cases’ quite literally) move mountains.

As the new ‘Carried Away – bags unpacked’ exhibition at Auckland War Memorial Museum reveals, bags may have achieved high fashion status, but they also carry cultural and historical significance.

In addition, they provide functionality which never goes out of style.

From plastic bags and kete to suitcases, backpacks, handbags and many more, this exhibition delves into the bags we use and how we use them, revealing sometimes unsuspected human histories.

From June 13 to October. See aucklandmuseum.com/visit/ exhibitions.

Suffering from a painful bunion or stiff big toe?

By STEFAN R. EDWARDS, Podiatric Surgeon FNZCPS Painful big toe joints are a common foot disorder and people often suffer unnecessarily for years, avoiding treatment which historically has earned a poor reputation, causing extreme pain or failed results.

As a podiatric surgeon, I specialise in forefoot reconstruction and commonly treats patients who suffer from bunions or painful stiff big toe joints, (Hallux Limitus/ Rigidus).

A bunion begins with a leaning of the big toe, gradually changing the angles of the affected bones, slowly producing the characteristic bump which becomes increasingly prominent.

Symptoms can include pain, irritation within footwear, inflammation, burning sensations or numbness, pain at the ball of the foot, arch cramping, mid foot pain and infection.

VOLUME ON TOP

Oversized styles with a legging, skinny pant or just boots are among the season’s trendsetters at Zebrano, Newmarket.

Look for plenty of draping accompanied by warm autumn shades – reds and browns – plus gorgeous florals which never fade.

Word on the street is ‘more is better’ so, wear texture, colour or print from top to toe, or drape around you to make it a wrap! Remember to check your body shape to make sure the length is right!

Coats, ponchos and wraps are the season’s essential outer layers – the days of one person, one coat are gone, ensure your wardrobe has a mix.

South june 2019.indd 25

A painful reduction in big toe movement (Hallux Limitus) or a painful stiffened big toe joint (Hallux Rigidus) is usually caused by damage to the articular surface (hyaline cartilage) of the big toe joint - the 1st Metatarso-Phalangeal Joint (MPJ).

This can be caused by wear and tear (osteoarthritis), a genetic predisposition, trauma, inflammatory diseases e.g. gout or rheumatoid arthritis.

The majority of my patients return to weight-bearing activity 3 to 4 weeks post-operative, with no need for the use of general anaesthetic, hospitalisation or casting.

They also report post-operative discomfort rather than pain which resolves 48 hours after their surgery.

If you do have any questions relating to your bunion or foot problem, please feel free to contact my rooms or contact us through our website www.footcentre.co.nz and we will do our best to help.

A variety of surgical procedures are available. These are designed to remove the bump of bone, correct the changes in the bony structure of the foot and correct soft tissue changes which may also have occurred.

The length of the recovery period will vary, depending factors including the extent of your deformity, x-ray findings, age and activity level.

Light up your life and skin with LED Light Therapy Like many inventions, LED therapy had its origins in medicine, originally used for wound treatment in warfare. Now, you’ll find LED light therapy machines in more relaxing environments, utilised by savvy clients and skin therapists worldwide as part of a safe, effective skincare regime.

At Vivo Skin Clinic, our clients are finding this painless, relaxing therapy a welcome remedy for a number of common skin conditions.

LED Light Therapy is a non-invasive, super relaxing treatment suitable for all skin types, and a great solution for vegan skin enthusiasts.

So how does it work?

The skin uses the light as a source of energy to fuel the repair and rejuvenation of damaged cells, or, in the case of treating acne, by fighting the bacteria-forming acne that forms those pesky pustules!

When used consistently over time, LED lights penetrate skin at different depths, causing various positive reactions. The energy stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, boosts circulation and accelerates tissue repair. The result is plumped skin and a reduction in fine lines and wrinkles.

The added benefit to this noninvasive treatment is while it is busy working on your complexion, you’ll experience a tranquil environment as you lie under the lights. Bliss!

There are different lights that work for different skin conditions. Let’s look and see which works best for different types of skin concerns.

BLUE LIGHT: Has powerful antibacterial properties for the treatment of acne without irritation and reduces oil production. It helps prevent future breakouts and offers a UV-free alternative for the treatment of eczema and psoriasis – great for teens or for clients suffering adult acne!

RED LIGHT: Stimulates production of collagen, increases natural hydration levels, reduced redness and inflammation. As we age, common signs begin to appear in our skin, but this light can shrink the appearance of pores, regulate oil production, improve circulation, accelerate skin repair and is even a medically-approved treatment for rosacea.

Used as a stand-alone treatment, or in conjunction with other forms of facials to calm any areas of irritation, it is also brightens the skin so, people with pigmentation issues will see a benefit too.

INFRA-RED LIGHT: This deeply absorbed wavelength, helps increase cell permeability and absorption, smoothes lines and wrinkles, improves elasticity, reduces pain and inflammation, accelerates wound healing and heals cystic acne. It’s like a mini facelift without any of the inconvenience!

Your Vivo skin therapist can advise a course of treatments which will offer corrective and long-lasting results, although the best part is seeing a difference after the first session!

Our Vivo skin therapists are found at 18 locations around New Zealand, and would love to introduce you to this incredible new treatment. Book your LED Light Therapy session by going to www.vivoskinclinic.co.nz

Putting a permanent smile on people’s faces Pro Tips

For someone who fainted at the sight of blood as a dental assistant at 16 years old, Ugie has come a long way.

Her reputation as one of the top clinical dental technicians in Auckland and other parts of New Zealand precedes her. It was her love of aesthetics that led Ugie Moodley to put a permanent smile on people’s faces.

You know you are in great hands as you hear Ms Moodley talk passionately about state-ofthe-art technology she uses to create a smile from prostheses the size of a little finger to that replacing all the teeth.

“It is a blessing to be privy to all the new technology as it updates. Each course attended allows us to actually work with new materials and techniques, which makes being a clinical dental technician at this time very exciting and rewarding” she says, keeping herself updated by regularly attending workshops and courses.

Most partial dentures have anchors called clasps which are used to retain the denture in your mouth. These can sometimes show and ruin a beautiful smile.

“Now we are equipped with technology to resolve this. There are so many combinations that are now available that is hardly ever the same for each patient.

returned to NZ I was referred to Ugie at Niche Denture Centre by my sister-in-law and now I can smile confidently. In Mae Salvador fact I feel like smiling all the time. Thank you Ugie for my beautiful smile.”

If light metal frameworks have to be used you can be rest assured that they are nickel and beryllium free” she says.

With more than 20 years of creating dentures it is no wonder Ugie has clients locally and around the world that sing her praises.

Mae Salvador says “for me a smile is the prettiest thing a lady can wear. But I didn’t always feel that way. I had my previous set of dentures made overseas and I was embarrassed to smile.

It was an awful feeling as they didn’t even work properly. When I

Pamela Harrison says “I am very happy with the service I received. I got exactly what I needed with great Pamela Harrison respect and friendliness. The best dental practice yet.”

Niche Denture Centre has its own onsite laboratory which means you don’t have to wait a week sometimes more for a repair or a reline. These can be taken care of onsite, helping you back into your smile almost immediately.

Niche Denture Centre is situated conveniently on ground level with ample parking right outside the building and easy to access even for clients on wheelchairs.

If the corners of your mouth are red and irritated, you may have a condition called Angular Cheilitis.

This can be treated with a topical antifungal ointment but if the condition reappears it may be caused by the reduced vertical dimension of your dentures.

Your dentures need to be checked on a regular basis, once or twice every 2 years. It is like WOF for your car only your dentures become a part of you and have to function far greater feats than your car.

At Niche Denture Centre the hot cure process is used to ensure 100% guaranteed quality dentures.

Many options available for individual treatment.

Niche Denture Centre offers: ✔ All types of dentures including implant dentures ✔ Repairs while you wait

✔ Relines within 24 hours ✔ 100% guarantee on all new work done

s e n i g r e b u Stuffed a These aubergines are filled with a delicious combination of lamb mince, onion, garlic, cumin, nutmeg and chilli flakes. The subtle, sweet flavour and soft texture of aubergine is the perfect casing for our lamb.

Prep: 50 mins | Cook: 20 mins | Serves 4

Ingredients Lamb • 500g Quality Mark lamb mince • 1 red onion, finely chopped • 3 cloves garlic, crushed • 11/2 tsp ground cumin • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg • Good pinch dried chilli flakes • 1 cup fresh or ready-made tomato pasta sauce • 1 Tbsp tomato paste Aubergines • 2 medium-sized aubergines To serve • 1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan • Green salad

Method Preheat the oven to 180°C. Line a shallow oven tray with baking paper.

Aubergines: Cut the aubergines in half lengthwise and cut out most of the flesh, leaving a 1cm border. Roughly chop the aubergine flesh and set aside. Place aubergine skins on the tray, drizzle with a little olive oil and place in the oven. Cook until soft, about 30 minutes.

Lamb: Heat a dash of oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat and add the aubergine flesh. Cook until soft and golden.

Lower the heat and add the onion and cook for a further 5 minutes until the onion is soft.

Add the garlic and cook for a further 1 minute, then sprinkle in the spices and cook until aromatic. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.

Increase the heat and add the lamb mince.

Brown, stirring with a wooden spoon to break up the mince. Lower the heat and stir in the tomato pasta sauce and paste and simmer gently for 5-10 minutes. Return the aubergine spice mixture to the pan and season.

To serve: Remove aubergines from the oven and spoon lamb mixture into the skins. Top with the parmesan and return to the oven for 20 minutes. Cook until hot and golden on top. Serve with a green salad.

KETO CHOCOLATE MOUSSE INGREDIENTS: • 5 Tbsp WaHiki Vanilla Coconut Ice Cream • 1 can of full fat coconut cream • 1 Tbsp coconut milk • 1 tsp stevia • 3 Tbsp organic raw cacao powder (not cocoa) • 1 tsp vanilla essence

METHOD Place can of coconut cream in fridge overnight then open and scoop top layer of hardened coconut cream off top (about half the can will be cream

All’s Fare...

Try our latest flavours of the month and experience a range of new products with a real taste difference.

E BITES DASH & DINE WITH REVIV Nineties’ youth may have decided that ‘reality bites’, but, after years of fighting commuter traffic, they’ve probably now concluded that they didn’t even know the half of it! Thankfully, help is on hand courtesy of Revive Bites. Available from supermarkets nationwide in a range of flavours (RRP $5.49 per tub), these delicious little morsels from Revive Cafe are loaded with energy, protein and fibre, making them ideal for a quick and easy breakfast on the move, even when the traffic seems to sit still.

BEER & OYSTERS – SHUCK OF THE DRAW If the idea of having freshly-caught seafood delivered to your door paired with a box of beer sounds a little fishy, you’re not alone. However, for a limited time (until June 12, while stocks last), that’s exactly what Liquor King is offering, packs of a dozen Stella Artois along with a dozen live oysters from Freshcatch – see lk.co.nz for more information. But if you miss the boat, no need to worry because there are plenty of other options to choose from, via freshcatch.co.nz, featuring almost every type of seafood under the sun, or sea at least.

ONCE YOU GO BLACK...

Packed full of plantbased protein and dietary fibre, as well as minerals including magnesium, thiamin and niacin, black rice delivers a chewy texture and nutty flavour.

Ideal in sweet or savoury dishes, these delicious grains were once reserved for the Chinese royal family but, thanks to SunRice, they’re now available (RRP $4.99 per 500g pack) from supermarkets nationwide.

NEW NUTS MAKE THE CUT You don’t have to have nuts to work in media but, as they provide a quick energy burst, they do come in handy when exercising the ‘old nut’.

Big on crunch, while packing a whole lot of punch when it comes to flavour, these tasty additions are available (from RRP $3.50 per pack) from Countdown stores nationwide.

HEALTHY & TASTY – PRAYERS ANSWERED! Prebiotics and probiotics may help ensure good gut health but it seems we need not take a spoonful of sugar to help the medicine go down. Free of dairy, gluten, refined sugars, additives and preservatives, Body Balance Coconut Yoghurts from Cathedral Cove are a godsend for anyone looking for the right mix of good health and great flavour.

ROGER GILL Do I stay MOTORS or do I go?

Smith & Sons Pukekohe owners, Lane and Melissa van den Brink know how important it is for a home to be both functional and aesthetically pleasing.

Their advice is designed to guide homeowners smoothly through the renovation process.

INDEMNITY CLAUSE IN YOUR CONTRACT?

We are well and truly into the change of seasons. With winter sports forging ahead, and the drop in temperatures, it feels like winter has been here too long already.

t’s de on, res ulti nt. t’s ar st.

One of the questions we are often asked when clients are about to complete a renovation is, ‘can I still live in the house?’

We can’t immediately answer the question for you as each project has different factors which will influence any decision to stay or not stay in the house. So, here are some tips to think about when coming up with an answer: • Budget – we are all aware if you need to move out there will be a cost to this, so if budget is tight it might be that possibility is eliminated.

Kevin House is a highly skilled commercial lawyer. His expertise extends to business structures and trust and tax law, including asset planning and business planning protection for corporate shareholders, directors and individuals.

• Do you have young children?

If it is a major renovation ask yourself if it will be safe for the children while construction is going on and will there be areas of the house which can be kept secure and clean for them. Also, if you have two entrances, one could be for the family and one for contractors.

indemnities but generally they are to prevent the indemnified party suffering the loss covered or to reimburse the loss suffered (but not prevent it from the outset).

What is covered depends on the precise wording.

In the heat of negotiation, depending on which side of the negotiation you are on, it is easy to make or give in to such a request without fully considering the possible impact.

Some general principles applying are:

On a normal contractual breach claim, damages will generally cover only:

question to ask is, ‘will it be safe

In a business contract negotiation there will often be a suggestion that, in addition to normal contract terms relating to breach, there should be an additional provision which specifies that a party in breach indemnifies the other party.

• Losses which flow from the breach (i.e. a causation test must be met) • Losses which could reasonably be supposed to have been in the contemplation of the parties, at the time of the contract, as a proper result of the breach (i.e. were reasonably foreseeable).

Pukekohe. See you next time.

(SAVINGS OF OVER $2500.00)

Under an indemnity claim, however, unless the wording suggests otherwise, causation and foreseeability are not at issue – the mere fact that the innocent party has suffered loss is enough to ON liability.

• T here is no implied duty to mitigate loss under an indemnity • T here is no right of set-off against an indemnity claim • T he limitation period on an indemnity runs from the date of failure to observe the indemnity and not from the date of the breach •C onsequential losses may be able to be recovered •S ome cases have held that the innocent party may be entitled to recovery of full legal costs Therefore, an indemnity should be strongly fought for, or against, depending whether one is giving or taking it and the wording of any indemnity should be carefully considered as to width, time it applies, what is covered and how it is triggered.
