Nelson Cricket’s biggest day has been deemed a massive success, with a sell out crowd of 5300 witnessing a first class Black Caps victory over the West Indies. Everything from the venue, the crowd, the facilities and the result were given a big tick – with just the weather being the only groan as late afternoon rain resulted in a premature end with New Zealand given a 58 run win via the Duckworth Lewis Method. “There was a huge turnout, the wicket was good, everything proved to be as good or if not better than we had hoped,” says Nelson Cricket Association chairman David Leonard. “It was really, really important on a whole lot of levels that the game went ahead SEE PAGE 2
Dumped dogs get second chance With the help from local volunteers, homeless hounds are getting a second chance at life. Second Chance is a newly founded organisation that takes dumped, neglected and otherwise discarded dogs from the Richmond Pound and places them with loving owners, giving them a new lease on life. While the majority of wandering, relin-

Dogs from the Motueka and Richmond area who are not reclaimed from the pound are put through the programme to find them new homes. The aim is to get them desexed, vaccinated and microchipped before they are adopted out into a new family. A relationship formed between John Bergman, manager of the Richmond Pound,
and Second Chance has seen the group already re-home five local dogs since forming in July. Now they want to spread the word about the dogs down at Richmond Pound who all need a new family, asap. “We are really just trying to let people know that there are good dogs up for SEE PAGE 4

FROM PAGE 1 and we got a result so we are rapt about that.” Tickets for ODI had sold out a week prior to the fixture but talks are already underway to lift the capacity above 6000 with the addition of more temporary seating. Nelson has been granted three games for the 2015 ICC Cricket World Cup and Saturday’s match was the region’s first chance to prove it deserved to be named as a host venue. But the overwhelming success in the height of the summer holidays has now given Nelson Cricket more confidence that it will be granted a three year deal with New Zealand Cricket meaning the Black Caps could return before the World Cup with a game against Sri Lanka likely. “We’d love to think the Black Caps see this as
their home ground and want to develop a winning record here. We did a very quick debrief straight after the game but generally everybody is pretty happy. Hopefully we can have another ODI next year as well as the three Cricket World Cup games so I think next year will be significant.” David says the crowd was well behaved, got into the game, and there were plenty wearing Tui t-shirts hoping to win $100,000 by catching a six with one hand. He admits the wait for food was excessive and that more toilets will be needed for future fixtures, but it was a learning curve and those problems should not occur again. “There are literally hundreds of things we’ve learnt; managing the crowd, servicing the crowd, the requirements of New Zealand Cricket, the requirements of media, we’ve learnt
mountains. “The wait for food was unacceptable and we do need more portaloos but they’re all things that are manageable and things we can deal with. I’ve watched the replay on TV and the ground looked amazing, the shots of the region were fantastic and I’m sure it was a huge boost for the region.” Following the Black Caps’ record breaking win in Queenstown just days before, cricket fans were hoping for fireworks. While it was a more controlled display with Martin Guptill top scoring with 81 in New Zealand’s 285 opening innings, everyone got their money’s worth in the final ball with Corey Anderson smashing a six right over the embankment. In reply, West Indies were sitting at just 134/5 when rain stopped play in the 34th over, handing New Zealand the victory.

Best dressed at the races It was a case of third time lucky for Nelson’s Angela Miller who won the Best Dressed Female in the Matthews Eyewear Eyecare Fashion in the Field at the Nelson Harness Racing Club’s meeting at Richmond Park on Sunday. After finishing second in the popular race-day fashion contest in 2011 and again last year, Angela pulled the right rein in this year’s edition when she decided to wear a home made outfit. She spent hours making the horse-patterned, black and white dress and matching black and white hat and all her hard work paid off with the judges agreeing that Angela looked “amazing”. “I decided I needed to up the ante this year after finishing second twice,” Angela says. “Last year I wore a dress I bought but this year I thought I’d make my own so I could wear something that was oneoff.” However, Angela was almost a late scratching from the contest only lining up in the top class field after she got some encouragement from her friends. “I was in a real flap this morning and wasn’t going to enter but my girl friends persuaded me to do it. I’m pleased they did it.” Angela took “a couple of weeks working off and on” to make the dress and hat which one of

Neglected dogs given a second chance FROM PAGE 1 adoption,” says founding member Sinead White. “There are so many people in Tasman that don’t even know the Richmond Pound is here. They go to the SPCA or they go online to Trademe when they are looking for a dog. We’re saying, support your local.” The organisation is run completely voluntarily and no money is made off any of the adoptions says Sinead, who
does it out of her pure passion for animals. “I absolutely love animals, they are family to me. It is hard seeing dogs just discarded and not thought about. They are so loyal and loving. It’s just so rewarding to re-home them.” Dog trainer Mike Pioch, who has also been part of the inception of Second Chance says there is an incorrect stigma attached to adopting a dog from the pound that makes re-homing them a challenge. “The two main barriers to re-homing are a lack of knowledge in the community that the Richmond Pound
For some their work is done...
does have dogs available for adoption, and a common misconception that pound dogs are dangerous and trouble. While some dogs have been taken by rangers because of behaviour problems, John does not make them available for re-homing if they present any threat to people or other dogs.” Check out what dogs are up for adoption by visiting www. facebook.com/secondchancetasman or www.tasmanrich monddogpound.co.nz. The dogs come microchipped, vaccinated and desexed. There is a small cost involved. Alternatively they are looking for sponsors of individual dogs or donations to the cause.

Incident free New Year’s Eve Nelson celebrated the New Year with little trouble say police, in contrast to the final weeks of 2013. There were no major incidents on New Year’s Eve and police say behaviour across the district was excellent with the only 28 arrests for a breach of liquor ban in the city and nine for assault. While police were hailing the “noticeable change in the way people were behaving” there were several incidents at the end of 2013 that left them less than impressed. Shortly after midnight on December 20 a 34 year old man was attacked in New St. The man was hit over the head with a spade during an altercation. The attacker appeared in court yesterday to face charges of intent to cause grievous bodily harm and theft. In the very early hours of Christmas morning 29 year old Jared Grafton was attacked by a group of four to five men on Queen St in Richmond. The incident occurred near Burger King where the man was walking alone. It left him unconscious and with multiple fractured bones in his face. His attackers have yet to be found and police are appealing for any information. The victim was treated at Nelson Hospital before being flown to Hutt Valley Hospital with multiple facial fractures. Detective Sergeant Lex Brunning said the unprovoked attack was particularly vicious and had the potential to be fatal. Acting Tasman District Commander Inspector Steve Greally says despite the two violent attacks he was delighted with the way the region celebrated the New Year. “For two years running we’ve had relatively trouble free New Year’s celebrations in our district. That’s a credit to the work police have done to address alcohol-related offending,” he says.

Jazz Fest wows

Nelson’s iconic jazz festival had the perfect send off on Sunday, as hundreds of people packed out Washbourn gardens to take in the finale event of the Woollaston Jazz & Blues Festival. Festival director Liam Ryan says the event labelled as a “feast of jazz and blues”, now in its 23rd year, was a huge success this summer with the programme drawing in well over 20,000 people across various venues around the
region. “It really feels as though it is building momentum every year. It’s attracting a lot of interest and feels sustainable.” He says organisers aimed to put on a festival that provided beautiful music in beautiful places and the finale event, with its “leafy trees, blue sky, picnics and family atmosphere” suited the tone of the festival as a whole too, which was all about community.

Bob Ching used the metaphor of a cowboy telling his horse “get me out of here and I’ll look after you for the rest of your life” when chased by Indians. Apparently the same applies to his 1951 Triumph Thunderbird – a motorcycle he’s owned for 50 years. The Stoke man was pointed out by Nelson Classic Motorcycle Club president Peter Wood at the club’s annual show at the Stoke Memorial Hall. Peter says it’s rare to see anyone hold onto a motorcycle for 30 years let alone 50. Bob, who speaks through his long whiskers which he clearly didn’t have when he first bought the bike as a 17 year old engineering apprentice, says this September will be 50 years to the date he obtained it. Still holding on to the original ownership papers, which are actually dated December 1954 because the previous owner took a few months to find them again, Bob recalls the moment he and the Thunderbird met. “It was in pieces when I bought it. It was abandoned in a workshop so I bought it off the guys

there. I was doing an apprenticeship at the time and it cost me 25 pounds,” he says. He sharply replies “no, no, no” when asked whether as a 17 year old he thought he’d still own it 50 years later. “When you’re 17 years old 50 years is like forever.” Bob has lots of memories on the bike, including tours and “picking up girls”, and says he will never part with it. “I lived on a farm and having a motorbike got me out of having
to do farm work. It got me out of there,” he says, recalling his cowboy and Indians metaphor. He has stayed true to his word of looking after it and hopes to pass it down to his grandchildren one day. Peter says the first day of the show was “steady” while Sunday had plenty of people through the doors.

Collectibles show comes to town Ever wondered what Granny’s old clock might be worth? Or perhaps that vase you found at a garage sale? Bring it along to the Nelson Antique and Collectibles Show this weekend and find out – you could be in for a surprise. Antique dealers and collectors from all over the country will descend on the city this Saturday for the event which is being held by the Nelson Antique Bottle and Collectibles Club. It’s not the first time such an event has been held, but club member Judy Pittman says every few years the group holds an event to show the vast range of items they collect. “It’s definitely not just bottles. It’s anything and everything.” A huge range of goods will be exhibited and sold from postcards to pottery, paintings to paperweights but the event will also include items that are a little more out of the ordinary. Some were once commonplace but are now rare, such as household items like egg whisks, tin openers, local memorabilia and Kirkpatrick’s jam jars. “Past shows have done very well. Because everyone collects something, there will be something there to interest everyone.” It’s not just antiques either, with a huge variety of retro and vin-

With over 70 helmets to his name, it is one of the largest in the country. “I started collecting them in 1992. I’ve always been interested in enforcement memorabilia. When I realised just how many different styles there were I just kept collecting.
It’s not your usual run of the mill collection.” Geoff ’s favourite helmet is one of the rarest and comes from the City of London Police – a force that covers only the financial district, also known as “The Square Mile”. The public are welcome to bring along antiques to find out what they might be worth, with members of the club offering a free valuation service at the show. The show will be held at the Nelson Suburban club from 9am. Entry $5.

Awesome day, well organised, looking forward to the World Cup! Understood the no big chilly bins but no deck chairs was ridiculous especially when people were allowed to bring in huge bean bags which take up far more room. Del Jenkins. Was great day my 8 year old and I had a blast. Atmosphere was amazing as was the game, it was just sad rain didn’t hold off but we waited it out in the rain to get some great autographs. He got his big cricket bat signed by Ryder, Taylor, McCullum and McMillan. He even got some of the West Indies signatures and got Corey Anderson to sign the little bat. Worth the wait, one very happy boy with some bats to put on his wall. Tia Andrews. Great day. Wouldn’t whinge too much about the coffee van, they were run off their feet. They will get it right next time, trial and error etc. Scott Ford. Attended! Awesome! Jess Brown. Brilliant day. Wicked atmosphere, bring on the next one. Andrea Taylor.
Was a great day. Clinton Harvey. Our whole family went... it was awesome. The kids loved it. Ruth Rodley. As a driver of a maxi taxi I think NCT did well to get everyone to and from the event and hopefully out of the rain quickly. Good on you Nelson for not taking the risk of drinking and driving. Hope you had a great day! I’m sure the vendors did their best as we did. Di Gingell. Yep. And a good result. Shay Wilson. Customer service could be better: Customer service for a lot of hospitality and retail outlets in Nelson needs to improve dramatically! Locals and tourists deserve a good experience when dining, shopping and supporting local businesses. It seems that every year we are let down by inexperienced, under trained staff that couldn’t care less about the wellbeing of their customers. I feel for the owners of these small businesses as giving a honest review on Trip Advisor is too easy. Many places to choose from for a coffee so make it properly and smile. It’s not that hard.

Art on show at summer exhibition

n o ti u l so e R s r a e Y w e N made easy! How does Garcinia Cambogia work? There are two mechanisms at work, Fat blocking and hunger suppression. It blocks fat by incapacitating a key enzyme called citrate lyase. This enzyme is responsible for converting stored carbohydrates and sugars into fat. By inhibiting citrate lyase, the fat-making process becomes inconclusive, which reduces the production of triglycerides and bad cholesterol. Ultimately, the amount of fat in the body decreases. HCA also works by suppressing appetite. When a person eats less, the body responds by releasing stored fat in cells. Garcinia Cambogia has been used across Asia for centuries as a powerful natural remedy for digestive and inflammatory conditions. Its weight loss benefits have recently come to the attention of many through the work of Dr Oz, who describes Garcinia Cambogia as “the Holy Grail of weight loss”.
Nelson’s summer art exhibition is back and due to popular demand will have extended hours. Members of Art Group Nelson will be gathering once again at Queens Gardens this Saturday for their annual summer event and club member Jean Jackson says that this year, they’ve taken on board feedback and will be catering to the crowd. “After art buyers at previous shows expressed their disappointment at the 4pm closing, a decision has been made to hold the exhibition for one day only but to continue into the evening.” She says there will be the usual display
of artwork ranging from oil, watercolours, mixed media and acrylics, and pieces will range from paintings to woodcarving, glasswork, and garden art. Jean says that due to the growing numbers of the club, the exhibition will have something for everyone. “Once again, membership has grown, bringing in new varieties for all art collectors to enjoy in their homes long after the exhibition is over.” The exhibition will open at 10.30am and will close at 7pm. Rain day is Sunday January 12. All artwork that is exhibited is for sale.

Inked up gran not done yet Steve Page
At 72 years old most ladies are taking it easy, making cakes and loving grandchildren. Joan Wills does all this – and very well from all indications – but she has a passion away from all that. She loves tattoos, or “inking” as it is also known. And at 72 she’s still not finished. So what makes a seemingly average lady step out like this? Born in Richmond and raised on the Papps family tobacco farm in Wakefield, Joan has all the normal family connections. One brother and sisters and quite a relaxed husband called Cecil, aged 81. They married in 1960 and Joan and Cecil set about doing all the things we all do. They raised a family and worked on their careers. Cecil being the Rabbit Island caretaker for many years, Joan looking after
the kids, two girls two boys. When the kids were old enough Joan went on to work successfully for IHC for a 21 year stint. Then at 47 years old she decided to do something bold. It was 1988 and even then tattoos were definitely a man’s domain, as well as for criminals and the odd seaman. Joan popped into the local Nelson tattooist Trevor Marshall and got her first tattoo. “I wanted something that was really only for me,” she says. So Trevor advised two things; a nice fleshy part and a place that it could be hidden if at a later date she grew to dislike it. She chose the upper leg and her love affair with inking started. Over the next 25 years Joan added to her collection. Even when she went overseas she would pop into a local tattoo shop and browse. “I was in Brisbane one day shopping and went to go on a river cruise but
I eventually ended up with another tattoo,” she says. And so what do her family think of it? “Actually it’s a really positive response. My grandkids really like it as it makes their Granny quite different, my kids are very supportive and my brother and sisters are all behind me as well. Although they were, because of the generation, a little unsure at the start,” she smiles. Two of their children have tattoos and two don’t. Her husband Cecil has no inking whatsoever and calls himself an “introvert” but he lights up when you start talking about Joan and her artwork. He quickly rushes to the dining cabinet and proudly shows a trophy Joan won in 1998 for her tattoos. He also keeps a little book with all the costs, what tattoos were done by who and when. Over the years Joan continued adding and
using the tattoo greats like Will and Jackie Morrow who now run the Inangahua tearooms. Joan and Cecil reckon costs are around $5000-$7000 for the inking and Joan says she still hasn’t finished. “I am running out of room but I won’t do neck or face and that means I can be in charge of when the tattoos can be seen. I still am mindful of how I dress for particular events and as I am getting older my skin’s getting thinner so I take my time.” And as for the most common question “does it hurt?” Joan replies with a smile “not to me it didn’t”. She also says it’s a great conversation starter with more and more people getting inking. She says often people will stop her in the street for a chat and Joan’s always happy to do that. “I think Cecil and I have really great personalities and that’s helped us pull off this whole tattoo thing.”

New in 2014 park? Think again, because there are a few things you should learn before setting out with man’s best friend this summer. Gordon Hill, a local registered NZQA assessor and dog trainer, has a few tips to help keep your pooch safe. When taking your dog for a walk first thing in the morning, be aware of sprays used at night on bushes, grass, shrubbery and trees. These chemicals are designed to kill grass and weeds and the first thing your dog will do after brushing through long grass, rubbing past trees and hedges, is wash his feet. This can lead to any poisons he’s encountered going straight into the gut and the bloodstream. An urgent reminder for summer as well, be aware of the toxic algae that can be found in our rivers once the weather heats up. Last summer six dogs were killed after ingesting the algae. Signs to watch out for are a receding water level and slow moving river. Paverpol is a fabric hardener imported from Holland for making garden sculptures and other artworks. Gwen Nicholson and John Schulze are the NZ Paverpol Distributors and accredited Paverpol Instructors. They have just relocated their Studio Workshop and Gallery to 133 River Terrace Rd, Brightwater. They are also establishing a Sculpture Garden there for public viewing. Beginners workshops include: Sitting and Standing Ladies $95, Masks $50, Wall hangings $45, Wine Bottle Decorations $15, Desert Nomads $90, and Chicks on Sticks $30. Advanced users can do life-size sculptures. Everything you need for workshops is provided and details and dates of the classes are available on the website: www.beefreecreations.co.nz. Gwen’s passion is for creating things that are different and for teaching the craft to others. Paverpol sculpting is suitable for anyone. Gwen guarantees you will go home with a sculpture you can be proud of regardless of your perceived artistic ability. Food plays a pivotal part in our lives. If you love food and enjoy cooking, are creative and meticulous, and savour flavour, texture and seasoning, then being a professional chef might be the perfect career for
you. Tai Poutini Polytechnic offers a range of culinary programmes. From taster courses for school students or industry training short courses, to its flagship Diploma in Professional Culinary Arts, there’s sure to be something to whet your appetite for a culinary education. Lead tutor Alex Hayward’s passion is clear. A chef ‘forever’, he’s worked in kitchens all over the world, but is now dedicated to teaching the culinary arts. It’s a hands-on role and he loves it. Alex teaches to the highest professional standard and expects the same from his students. ‘We run one of the best chef programmes around. It’s challenging and really stretches the boundaries. The chef trade is constantly evolving – we keep up with the changes, but also focus on traditional skills. We want our students to be ready to work anywhere.’ Small class sizes mean students have plenty of one-on-one time with tutors and training restaurant Tutoro provides valuable ‘real world’ experience. There’s a strong sense of community at TPP and moving to the West Coast is a great lifestyle choice. ‘It’s an awesome place to live and work,’ says Alex.

Fishing with
Nelson Dawnbreakers Fishing Club On behalf of the DBFC I would like to welcome all the fishing holiday makers to Nelson. You are fortunate enough to have arrived when the fishing is nearing its best. The Top of the South is blessed with a multitude of fishing grounds and are just waiting for you to make the most of them. The long range weather looks extremely inviting but as always check the marine forecast before heading out. As always at this time of the year the boat ramps, beaches and water ways are always extremely busy. Take care to find out the lay of the land from the locals as their local knowledge and advice will help enhance your day out. Make sure you are aware of local fish limits and sizes for specific areas, as they will differ from your own location. If fishing in the Marlborough Sounds for blue cod please make yourselves familiar with the strict laws regarding the taking of these fish. The laws will be heavily enforced by MAF over the holiday period. Tasman Bay has been producing some excellent snapper and they are being taken out in the deeper water straight out from Nelson. Head out into the middle of the bay in at least 15-17 metres of water, burley and stray line rigs with fresh baits, pillies or squid. The other alternatives are to fish in close to Rabbit Island or the Boulder Bank with flasher rigs to target the smaller snapper. Please also note that from approximately the end of the Glen, including Cable Bay to Pepin Island is a marine reserve and a no fishing zone. Past here is Delaware Bay which has been fishing well for snapper and gurnard. Kahawai are about in prolific numbers this season and can be caught absolutely anywhere in the Top of the South. The Boulder Bank is due to go off
anytime with good numbers of kingfish. So if you ever wanted to land one of these awesome fish, now is the time to do it. You need to use Rapala X-Rap 30 lures, these are a diving lure. As for rod and reel you want something that can handle a good fight, a jigging rod, puka rod or any other rod that has at least 20kg line will do and a reel that can handle a bit of torture in the drag department. These fish don’t fight as hard as the ones in deeper water but all the same will take you to the cleaners if you don’t take it easy. Troll about 6-7 knots, stay between 7-12 metres. Early morning when the sun first hits the water is a good time to do it or late in the evening. Another option is the spat mussel farms off Motueka or Mapua where the king’s are usually getting caught on stickbaits, poppers and jigs. French Pass is still very slow with all the fish up around Nelson at the moment. Not much to report on D’urville Island and Stephens Passage apart from good sized coutta to be taken, help yourselves to them, they are in good numbers and easy to hook up. The inner sounds are finally starting to get some fish in there but has been very slow and now all the holiday makers are there you will be best to fish later at night or early in the morning until everyone goes back home. If you happen to be over in the Abel Tasman try fishing on the reefs around Adele Island or Bark Bay. Make sure you know where the marine reserve is in the park. It starts from Bark Bay and goes right up to the head of Awaroa. From there up to Separation Point you will be able to target snapper, terakhi, blue cod and kahawai. Golden Bay has been fishing very well and the mussel rafts seem to be the flavour of the month to target them.
This Week
Beach concert for teens Tahunanui beach will not only be the place to be for its sand and surf this Friday, the Summer Beach Festival will see bands take to the stage in front of hundreds of teenagers. The festival will be held from 4 to 10pm and not only provides entertainment for local and visiting teens but also a chance for up and coming bands to show off their skills in front of a large crowd. The free concert is being hosted by The Truck, the Nelson City Council-funded off shoot of the New Hub af-
ter the youth centre closed last year due to earthquake risk. The Truck travels around Nelson providing recreation at a wide variety of venues for youth aged 11-18. It partners with the council to provide eight youth events each year. “We provide things for teenagers to go and do, especially in the evenings. So we got a whole lot of bands together and thought we’d put on a great day at the beach with some fun stuff,” says Youth and Community Trust manager Steve Wil-
son. There will also be a barbeque and sports equipment to make full use of the beach facilities, says Steve, with some activities on the beach and others on the Tahunanui Reserve. The acts performing include Livvy and Anna, Chase Tangohau Music and Little Oceans. Steve says although there will be plenty of out-of-town teens who are welcome to attend, the event is aimed at giving locals something to do in the middle of summer.

SPORT Local horses fall short at harness races www.shuttersport.co.nz
The Nelson Harness Racing Club dodged two bullets fired by the weather gods before enjoying a successful summer meeting that featured eight wins including a spectacular cups double by Canterbury driver John Dunn. Club president John McKenzie was all smiles at the completion of the second day’s racing at Richmond Park on Sunday but admits they were fortunate that the rain cleared before the start of racing on Friday and Sunday. “We were lucky although once it started raining so early I thought we had a pretty good show of it clearing in time,” John says. “We were also lucky to get really good support from the holiday makers and people in Nelson. There was some great racing and the betting was up on both days so the club had a good meeting.” A crowd of over 3000 attended the second day on Sunday after 2300 attended the first day on Friday. The highlight of the meeting was undoubtedly John Dunn posting eight wins, three on Friday and five on Sunday including a Nelson cups double on Donegal’s Guest. John and Donegal’s Guest, which is trained by John’s father Robert, emphatically won the Golden
Edge Nelson Cup Prelude on Friday and the Nelson Pine Industries Nelson Cup on Sunday. Donegal’s Guest is owned by Terry McDonald, who also owns thee-time New Zealand Cup winner Terror To Love, and Eric Griffin. John had earlier won Sunday’s Jennex Signs Mobile pace on The Pacman, the Route 6 Automotive/New Gate Company Mobile Pace on Lumous and Christian Cullen Mares Mobile Pace on Lauramegan before ending the meeting winning his fifth race of the day on Crackaheiny in the Hunterbond/Kis Solutions Mobile Pace. “It’s only the second time I’ve driven five winners in a day. The other time was last month in Auckland so things are going pretty good at the moment,” John says. Nelson horses missed out on a win during the two days of racing with Richmond trainer Ian Thomas producing the best result on Sunday when his son Jason drove Taittinger Rose into third in the Jennex Signs Mobile Pace. Brian Hill’s Sunchita ran on well for fifth for his daughter Kristie in the Nelson Building Society Handicap Trot after breaking at the start while Murray Pash’s Tough Enough was fourth.

Falcons return to action If the Nelson Marlborough Falcons hope to reach the ASB Youth League finals in their second season they will need to create more chances, so it’s no surprise coach Davor Tavich has used his second over-age spot on a striker. Ryan “Skippy” Stewart is likely to see the second most game time as an over-
age player behind captain Coey Turipa, and the Suburbs marksman will link up with Omar Guardiola to form a lethal strike partnership that will be integral to the Falcons’ playoff aspirations. Each team is able to name four players over the age of 20 in their squad but just two can be selected in the match-day
squad. Tore Waetcher and Niall Young are the two other over-age players. The New Zealand King Salmon Nelson Marlborough Falcons open the 2014 ASB Youth League with an away trip to Dunedin against Southern United this Sunday, a team that finished second in the competition last year.

At the request of the adjacent landowner, the Council is seeking to apply to stop unformed (and un-named) legal road situated near Clover Road West. A portion of the road to be stopped is recently claimed accretion to the legal road. Accretion is when a gradual build up of land occurs due to the changing nature of a river (or other waterway). The other portion of the road proposed to be stopped is unformed road which used to run alongside the river channel. The river channel has shifted, and the unformed road, and accretion to road, is now situated some distance from the physical river. The proposal to stop the road is part of a complex exchange intended to provide continuous public access alongside where the river is now located. If the road is stopped, the land will be sold to the adjacent landowner, who will create esplanade strips in return, thus making provision for public access and the protection of riparian values. The overall proposal also includes an exchange of marginal strip land administered under the Conservation Act 1987 by the Department of Conservation. For plans of the portions of the road intended to be stopped, and plans of the overall proposal, and to make any other further enquiries, please contact Robert Cant at Tasman District Council – Email robert.cant@tasman.govt.nz, Ph. 03 543 8585. Plans may also be viewed at the Richmond Office of the Tasman District Council. Objections on the proposed road stopping should be made in writing, to the address below, and must be received no later than 4.00 pm on Wednesday 19 February 2014. This is the 1st of two notices. The 2nd notice will be published in the Nelson Mail on Saturday 11 January 2014. The Manager Property Services Tasman District Council Private Bag 4 Richmond
