TDC told to leave ‘unique’ tracks alone Simon Bloomberg Two of the biggest sporting clubs in the Nelson-Tasman region are determined to try and stop Tasman District Council from closing some of Rabbit Island’s “unique” riding and walking tracks.

The council wants to close the tracks under the Moturoa-Rabbit Island Reserve draft management plan released for public consultation on May 7. The plan includes a proposal to restrict public access to the interior of the forest plantation at the western end of Rabbit Island due to health and safety reasons.

However, the proposal has come under fire from the Nelson Mountainbike Club and Nelson Triathlon and Multisport Club which are regular users of Rabbit Island. The clubs stage a number of popular events on the tracks which mountainbike club president Paul Jennings says are “unique” and should not be closed.

“Rabbit Island is very unique around here because there are not many flat places you can go to ride a bike. It stays really dry in wet weather and it’s by the sea so it has unique qualities that are valued and we are concerned that they will be lost.

“It’s always surprising the number of people who do go out there, especially young families. It’s a great place to go.

“We run our six-hour race on those tracks for the very reason that they

make the event very inclusive. Anyone from six years old to 60 years old can go there and enjoy the trails - they are very popular.”

Nelson Triathlon and Multisport Club president Dick Bennison says he’s surprised and disappointed at the council’s proposal to close the tracks which “are fundamental to our club running safe events”. Dick says he understands the council’s concerns about health and safety but believes recreational users should be given priority over commercial forestry “for a resource as valuable as this”.

“Our club is the envy of the country, being able to run events on a place like that. It makes no sense to close these tracks and I believe it runs against the reserve status on the land.”

Paul says the mountainbike club also holds the children’s Mini Mountainbike race series on the tracks at Rabbit Island because they are perfect for small legs and smaller wheels.

Last Sunday, 180 riders, from age three to 13, competed in the race at Rabbit Island while the latest triathlon club event there last month attracted almost 100 athletes.

“The little kids seem to love it,” Paul says.

“You have the beach and barbecue area and the kids can go off for a 20 minute ride and then come back so it really

Distributed to 11,000 homes in Richmond, Hope, Brightwater, Wakefield and Murchison.

Tasman district mayor Richard Kempthorne is confident that irrigators will secure enough funding for their share of the $82.5million Waimea Community Dam after receiving “positive news” last week.

Council agreed at a meeting in Richmond last Thursday to give the group representing key irrigators, the Waimea Community Dam Limited (WCDL), more time to come up with funding for the irrigation dam in the Lee Valley. Council has already allocated $25 million in its Long Term Plan for the proposed dam with the balance to be funded by irrigators and other potential stakeholders including the government’s Crown Irrigation Investments and Nelson City Council.

Richard says WCDL representa-

the line,” Mark says. “But helping across the line should not mean supporting private enterprise.”

Councillor Brian Ensor conceded that John Palmer’s comments were good news although they provided only “a glimmer of hope that they will lead to the building of the dam”.

Council chief executive Lindsay McKenzie says the extra time will not place the project at risk.

“Securing funding to bridge the gap between what the council has budgeted and the project’s cost is critical to the project’s future,” he says. “The council wouldn’t be taking this step if it didn’t have confidence that the funding gap to be met by irrigators and external sources was achievable.”

TDC told to leave tracks alone FROM PAGE 1 broadens its appeal.”

Although Paul and Dick say their respective clubs haven’t yet formed an official view on the plan, they will definitely be making a submission to council. The clubs will also be encouraging all their members to submit - the mountainbike club has over 1000 members while the triathlon and multisport club has about 250 members.

Councillor Judene Edgar, who will be chairing the submission hearings in August, says the two clubs have valid concerns and that’s why the council wants to hear feedback on the draft plan.

“We have to hear from people and the clubs who use the island,” Judene says. “They need to make submissions and tell us what’s right and what’s wrong with the plan and what are the solutions.”

Judene concedes she has “certainly enjoyed riding through those roads and tracks”.

However, Judene says Rabbit Island is also a valuable commercial forest and the council is proposing to close those tracks to resolve the conflict between recreational users and forestry practises.

“The reality is that people have gone in there when there has been active forestry which

The Warehouse is working to remove alcohol-labelled wine-gums from their shelves, after receiving several complaints about the confectionary being “inappropriate” for children.

A Weekly reader sent in a photo of the wine-gums, after purchasing them from The Warehouse Richmond to go in ‘goody bags’ for her son’s fifth birthday party. But she soon changed her mind after taking a closer look at the writing.

Despite their name, the wine-gums contain no wine – but the brightly coloured sweets are branded with the names of alcoholic drinks, including brandy, vodka, gin, rum and port. .co.nz A spokesperson from The Warehouse says they are “aware of the issue” and confirmed that the wine-gums certainly do not contain any alcohol.

Good sports help Henley School Simon Bloomberg Henley School’s sport’s budget received a big boost last week when it was presented with $2500 worth of Rebel Sport vouchers after topping the polls at the Jennian Homes Mother’s Day Run and Walk.

The popular, all-female Mother’s Day event is part of Jennian’s New Zealand-wide initiative to support the Heart Foundation’s Go Red for Women campaign. This year,

Teacher in charge of sport at Henley School, Cade Armstrong, says $2500 worth of vouchers will cover “a significant chunk” of the school’s budget for sporting equipment for the year.

“It’s a real bonus for us,” Cade says. “It was a really nice surprise.”

Daryl says the Nelson event was one of the biggest in the country with 700 participants, creating a “huge sea of red” at the start line on Champion Rd.

schools around the country also benefitted with participants at each of the 20 events nominating their favourite school and the winners receiving $2500 worth of vouchers for sports goods from Rebel Sports.

And Henley not only received the most nominations at the Nelson edition of the event, it topped the whole country with 75 votes. The next highest was St Joseph’s School in New Plymouth with 52.

Waimea Motors to be modernised

Waimea Motors is closing temporarily at midnight this Thursday so that the Richmond service station can undergo a major redevelopment.

Owner Barry Milne says Waimea Motors has been on its present site on Gladstone Rd since 1985 and the premises are overdue for an upgrade. The redevelopment will include installing multi-hose dispensers, an extended canopy and redesigning the forecourt layout to create more space between the pumps.

The redevelopment follows the rebranding of Waimea Motors from a Mobil station to become a Nelson Petroleum Distribution (NPD) station in January. Barry’s family has owned Waimea Motors since 1961 when his father started the business. Barry says the service station is scheduled to re-open on July 1, although “hopefully it will be sooner”.

Well-known Appleby horseman passes away

One of the country’s most legendary horsemen, Fergus O’Connor, has passed away after a lifetime of breeding, breaking and working his beloved Clydesdales on his Donnybrook Stud at Appleby.

Fergus, aged 91, died in Nelson last Sunday leaving behind a legacy of generations of Clydesdale enthusiasts who he inspired and mentored. Erewhon Station owner and close friend, Colin Drummond considered Fergus to be “one of the last of the generation who really worked the Clydies.”

“Ferg has been able to pass on such a vast wealth of practical common-sense knowledge,” Colin says in a tribute to Fer-

gus. “The horses he has bred have been the epitome of the traditional Clydesdale breed who were actually capable of a day’s work.”

Colin says Fergus was “a true gentleman with the most brilliant sense of humour, it was always a pleasure to be in his company.

It has been a real privilege having Ferg and horses he bred in our lives and we will never forget him or anything he has taught us.”

But Fergus’ love and knowledge of horses extended well beyond the Clydesdale community. For so many years, he was also the weather-beaten face behind a team of Clydesdales that enthralled thousands of

Local bid fails to keep motorbike collection

A bid to keep NZ Classic Motorcycles in Nelson has failed, with the announcement that the multi-million motorbike collection has found a new permanent home in Invercargill.

The Tom Sturgess-owned collection of close to 300 motorcycles has been purchased by Jocelyn and Scott O’Donnell, directors of Bill Richardson Transport World in Invercargill, and will be housed in the city’s CBD. The Haven Rd museum closed its doors to the public in April, following an announcement from Tom in February that the closure was a result of his recent illness.

Adrian Curtis, manager of Tyres and More in Nelson, had been on a mission to gather support to keep the collection in Nelson, and although he says it’s a shame to see it go, he’s happy to see it stay in New Zealand.

“I’m disappointed for Nelson, but you’d have to argue that it’s a great day for New Zealand to have it retained here,” he says.

“We may have entered into it a bit late, but after a really good start our hands were tied. At the end of the day I’m just happy it’s staying in the country – it would have been such a terrible thing to see it go overseas,” he says.

A spokesperson from the museum says that offshore offers had been received, but it was Tom’s wish that the collection remain in New Zealand.

Possible pukeko cull in Richmond A cull of pukekos near Borck Creek on Lower Queen St is possible, says Tasman District Council.

The proposed cull comes after the pukeko-driven destruction of the council’s development of Borck Creek. Ten thousand plants are due

to be planted from the estuary up to Jubilee Park to create a green water corridor that will shift water to the sea during a flood. However, for the development to succeed, the plants need to establish themselves instead of being pulled up by pukekos.

Approval granted for bait drop Kate Russell A controversial plan to drop poisonous bait into the Brook Sanctuary has been given the go-ahead, with the decision bringing mixed reactions from local groups.

The sanctuary was granted resource consent last Wednesday to aerially drop up to 26.5 tonnes of cereal bait as part of their pest-eradication project, with the aim to wipe out mice, rats, possums, stoats, pigs, goats and deer.

It is the latest step in their longterm plan to create a pest-free habitat in Nelson.

But the bait, which contains Brodifacoum, a toxin manufactured for eradicating mammalian pests and is found in domestic rodent bait, has caused protest from several local groups in Nelson, including The Brook Valley Community Group, who are currently investigating appealing the decision.

Chairman of the group, Christopher St Johanser, says the decision “is a bad one”.

“We feel let down,” he says.

“The prospect of the wholesale poisoning of our watershed is abhorrent to residents, and the proposed slaughter of all ver-

The Brook Sanctuary information centre. The trust behind the sanctuary has been given permission to drop bait to kill pests within its pest-proof fence. tebrates in the council-owned reserve is despicable.”

SPCA animal welfare inspector, Nicola Blasdale also says she is “certainly disappointed” with the result.

The SPCA sent a submission into Nelson City Council opposing the drop, saying the poisoning was “inhumane” and wanted the sanctuary to opt for a more gentle method of pest control.

But general manager of the sanctuary, Hudson Dodd, says the bait, which is unattractive to a number of native species, is the only toxin available in New Zealand that can fully eradicate introduced pests, and in the 26.5 tonnes of bait they will drop, only a tiny fraction of it contains Brodifa-

coum – an amount he says is equivalent to a pound of butter.

Hudson also says the resource consent comes with a list of 47 conditions to meet the concerns of affected parties.

“Many of the consent conditions are in line, or stricter than, the code of practice, which will give comfort to the community,” he says.

He also says the trust will be fully transparent about the process as it moves forward.

The eradication process will involve three aerial drops of the bait, as well as hand-baiting. Hudson says they are on track to start baiting between July and September this year, but no firm dates have been set yet.

Wakefield knitters do a pearler job

Siobhan Lavery Newborn babies in Richmond, Brightwater and Wakefield will be snuggly warm this winter, thanks to the generosity of the Wakefield Craft Group which knitted over 200 items of baby clothing for Plunket.

Wakefield Craft Group has been running for five years, and its 16 members have knitted items for a number of charities including woollen blankets for earthquake victims in Nepal and toys for Christmas appeals in Nelson and Tasman. Group member Julie Jerym says this year they have been knitting babies clothing for Plunket and this month handed over a colourful selection of blankets, booties, hats and jumpers.

“It’s something to do and it’s a chance for us to get together for a good yak,” Julie says. “We’ve also taught a few ladies to knit.”

Julie says the wool was purchased using a $300 grant from the Foodstuffs Community Trust which is supported by the Wakefield Four Square. The group purchased 95 balls online and have been knitting since early March.

Stuart and Jacqui Hore, who have owned the Wakefield Four Square for the last nine years, donate funds to the trust. Stuart says the trust has made a few big donations to groups around the Wakefield district, including the school, skateboard park, football club and the Bridge Valley Adventure Camp. “We used to get people and groups coming in all the time asking for sponsorship and donations and we found we couldn’t keep everyone happy,” Stuart says. “The trust is a good way to help us give back to our community without all the administration and having to make a decision about who gets funds.”

Plunket nurse Val Dewe says she is “honoured” to receive the knitted items on behalf of the organisation.

She says that around 15 babies were born in Wakefield, Brightwater and Richmond in the last month and she’ll distribute the knitted clothing to those families.

Anyone interested in joining the Wakefield Craft Group can come along to the Wakefield Fire Station on Wednesdays at 9am, or contact Julie on 541 8044 for more information.

Editorial: Leave Rabbit Island to recreation The Tasman District Council is sadly ignoring its ratepayers and also missing an exciting opportunity with its conservative, money-focussed draft plan for the future management of Rabbit Island.

The council is proposing to close some tracks through the interior of Rabbit Island under their Moturoa-Rabbit Island Reserve draft management plan. The reasoning for closing the tracks is valid because the council needs to keep recreational users out of the working commercial

forests. The council has to resolve this conflict of interest between recreational users and forestry practises otherwise it will be prosecuted under the new health and safety laws. No one can argue that it’s unsafe for recreational users, and unfair on forestry workers, to have a situation where people can wander into a working forest.

However, the council has come up with the wrong solution to this problem and, in doing so, is ignoring the ratepayers, who made it clear during an initial con-

sultation, that they want the council to keep their hands off Rabbit Island.

So instead of closing the tracks, the council should keep them open and even phase out forestry either side of these tracks.

It could harvest the pine trees and replant those areas with native species to create a corridor of restored habitat for walkers and riders. In fact, why don’t the council

show some real vision and build more tracks and extend its commendable plans for restoring native vegetation around the coastal areas into the interior of the island? Imagine having a world-leading habitat restoration project or a heritage park on our back doorstep?

Sure that would cost a few extra bucks. But what council needs to remember is that people don’t love Rabbit Island because it generates revenue - they love it because it is one of the best recreational areas in the district.

Especially, the lovely ladies who came and sat with us and attended to us until the emergency services arrived. Also, a thanks to the fire crew, the police and the ambulance drivers.

Petrol station for Sailsbury Rd: What the heck, why. There is like a petrol station just down the road both ways. A supermarket would be more appropriate. Lisa Page.

It’s about time judges utilised the penalties that are available.

No good the law saying “two years imprisonment or a $300,000 fine” if the Judge then dispenses a pathetic penalty.

Don’t send him to prison..that costs the taxpayer! Fine him so that all the costs for this incident are covered, with a very large financial addition that will ensure he (and anyone else) doesn’t act so carelessly in the future. Alison Holmes.

Ken’s still driving at 90 Jessie Johnston

At 90 years old, Ken Ivory is still mad about cars, in fact he still holds his driver’s licence and regularly takes his vintage vehicles out for a spin.

Ken got his licence in 1941, when he was 15 years old and living in Hastings.

“That’s the earliest you could get it, the day I turned 15. I got it in [my dad’s] ‘37 Ford V8, we just had to get in the car with a traffic cop or policeman and he just told you where to go, and if you did it right he said, “well that’s alright, we’ll go back to the office.” Five shillings later, and Ken was free to head out on the road.

While his initial form of transport was a motorbike, Ken’s first car was a 1924 Ford Model T which had only done 22,000 kilometres and cost him 15 pounds. In 1943, he drove it to Nelson when his family shifted here, “Dad and my brother drove a Model A and I drove the Model T with Mum in it.”

Ken says he’s always been mad on cars, but his passion is Ford’s.

“My Dad had Fords so I just carried on,” says Ken.

“Whenever you go anywhere [in a Ford] you’re always sure of getting back, I’ve never been let down yet.”

Over his 90 years as a Ford enthusiast, Ken has owned five Model T vehicles and around 20 Model A’s, a few V8’s, a Rolls Royce and a Mercedes. Restorations have also been part of his history with Fords. “It was easy when I did it because you had better pickings than what you have today. You could find an old Model A or Model T in the shed and it didn’t take much to drive it home.”

But that doesn’t happen today.

You might find a whole lot of bits that you have to try and put back together.”

Ken has been a member of the Nelson Vintage Car Club for over 50 years, and while maintaining a licence at the age of 90 might seem like a huge achievement, Ken recently undertook a trip to Christchurch in his 1931 Model A Sport Coupe.

In 1962, Ken joined the Canterbury Vintage Car Club because a branch in Nelson didn’t exist. In 1964, he was involved in the establishment of the Nelson group, “because a good group of us liked

Julie Brewerton and Ken Ivory with their 1931 Model A Sport Coupe, which they drove to Christchurch. Photo: Jessie Johnston. old cars and having outings and it sort of developed from there.”

Over Easter this year, the Canterbury club held their 60th anniversary and being an ex-member, Ken and his partner Julie Brewerton decided to make the journey.

Making the trip to Christchurch in a vintage car is something Ken says he would do again, but perhaps via a different route.

“We didn’t realise there were so many trucks and so much traffic on State Highway 1, a bit frightening when you’re going slow.

You have to keep stopping and letting them go, so it takes you twice as long,” says Julie.

They completed the trip in two days and then, four days later, they did it all over again on the return journey.

Ken still drives his vintage cars regularly, enjoying a trip out from Brightwater to the Nelson Vintage Car Club headquarters on Lower Queen St every Wednesday morning. His current vehicles include the 1931 Model A Sport Coupe, which

he has owned for around three years, the very first Model A he bought, a 1931 Model A Tourer which he acquired in 1962, as well as Julie’s classic 1974 Rover and their modern day runaround Mazda.

“I might still have had [my first] Model T if it hadn’t run a bearing on the Whangamoa’s. I didn’t know much about it in those days, I was only 16.

A Model T doesn’t like going up hills because the oil doesn’t get to the front bearing. It made [such a] racket so I had to get towed home,” says Ken. Ken says he always meets people interested in his Model A’s when he takes them out, and will continue to drive them for a while yet.

As well as celebrating Ken’s 90th birthday, the Nelson Vintage Car Club also used their meet on Sunday to unveil a number of restoration projects that members of the club had been working on. The vehicles are brand new on the road after being restored from junk and include a 1929 Austin 7, 1955 Austin A30, 1918 Buick Tourer and a 1914 Hobart Motorcycle.

Business owners could be deported by Friday Editor

LOVE YOUR LAND

Advt.

Your Family’s Health vs Your Money When someone in your family is diagnosed with a serious illness you have three choices; 1. Wait until they can be treated in the public system, (can be 6 months +++) and hope they survive long enough to receive the treatment.

2. Pay for the treatment, (drugs, surgery, hospitalisation) and hope you don’t need to mortgage your house.

3. Plan ahead, pay a little bit now and get treatment when you need it at no extra cost!

Due to the lack of funding for the Public Health Service, you can experience long delays before receiving treatment and many of the important drugs are unfunded.

There are a number of ways we can help you plan for the future, but don’t wait until something happens, otherwise it will be too late and you will “have” to choose between option 1 or 2!

andrew@nelsonweekly.co.nz

A family’s dream move to Nelson could have an abrupt end this Friday when they are scheduled to be deported from the country.

Steve and Gail Webster moved to Nelson from the United Kingdom in 2012 with their two teenage daughters.

But the “dream move” is turning into a nightmare after they invested their life savings into buying a local business and building new lives, only to be denied residency.

“We’re a good part of the community, good-hard working people. We’re not millionaires who will build a factory and employ 1000 people – I wish I could – we’re just little people who really want to live here,” says Steve.

The family were granted an interim visa last November, three years after they arrived in the country on a business visa, but had their bid for permanent residency turned

down in early April.

Among the reasons was because they hadn’t employed a full time New Zealander after three years in business and hadn’t met growth goals. The couple say the business they bought, Earthbloom, wasn’t as good as it appeared in the books and it took them two years to work it back from the brink. Gail says the business has “turned a corner”, but that it wasn’t a big enough corner. “And that’s pretty hard to hear.”

Last week the Websters had their bid for a temporary visa delayed, meaning that if another last-ditch attempt for a temporary visa this week is unsuccessful then they will have to leave the country on Friday. Steve is employed at Bowater Toyota, is a volunteer fire fighter and Earthbloom employs a part-time staff member.

They say they feel gutted and are uncertain about what lies ahead.

“We have no idea what our life is like past next Friday and it’s scary,” says Steve.

In an ideal world, the Websters would get an interim visa this week and be allowed to appeal their declined bid for residency – which will almost certainly fail. They can then resubmit their application for residency having met its business goals, which they feel they are on track to do.

But it all hinges on getting a temporary visa this week.

The Websters have already applied for holiday visas to Australia in case they have to leave on Friday.

“As of right now, we have been ordered to leave New Zealand

by Friday or we are liable to being arrested, incarcerated and deported. We’ve got to hop out of the country and they may not let us back in. So we’ve got a business that will just collapse, all our life savings will be lost because we won’t be able to sell it in six weeks,” says Steve.

“We just want some common sense on this.”

The Websters are hoping their last-ditch efforts will be enough to keep them in the country they love.

New-mum courses now free Kate Russell Support for new parents in Nelson has been made even more accessible, thanks to a donation to the Nelson District Parents Centre.

A $6000 grant from the Nelson Bays Community Foundation (NBCF) means that the Parents Centre will be able to offer their Baby & You course to new mums in the region for free, for the rest of the year. The course is normally $40 for non-members.

The NBCF formed a partnership with the Tindall Foundation last year aimed at supporting the family and social services sector across the top of the South Island. They announced their first funding round last month of four donations, totalling $28,000.

Established in 1977, the Parents Centre is run by volunteers with the aim of helping new parents be the best they can through education and support. As well as offering a range of post-natal courses, they also run childbirth classes and guest speakers, such as the Nathan MikaereWallis Tween evening this

Nelson Bays Harmony Chorus Nervous excitement was to the fore when the women of Nelson Harmony stepped onto the stage at the Michael Fowler Centre in Wellington last weekend. They were performing at the national Sweet Adeline competitions along with hundreds of other barbershop singers from around the country.

“Although we felt well prepared there are always those butterflies that come with nervous anticipation,” says Trish Armstrong, from the showmanship team.

Many hours of rehearsal were spent learning the moves and endeavouring to lock each of the chords in the four part harmony music. Add expression and story telling to the mix and the performance comes alive.

For over 20 years Vistalite Richmond has been a trusted name in aluminium windows, doors and conservatories and retro fit double glazing.

While new owners Rod Satherley and Helen Petterson may not yet be experts in manufacturing such products, they do have a background owning, operating and managing other businesses within the local area and are looking forward to continuing the professional service, competitive prices and quality products that people associate with the Vistalite brand.

Rod is well known in the Nelson and Richmond district, previously owning and running several corner dairies and lotto outlets.

Haven Road Dairy won Top Shop 2000 under his ownership. While Helen has a long dairy farming background, she has training in floristry, vet nursing and dental assisting too. More recently Rod was working as an account manager for Hynds Pipe Systems, supplying companies such as Downers and Fulton Hogan, until he took over ownership of Vistalite in April this year. “I just liked the thought of getting back in to a nice small business and doing something for myself again,” says Rod. Although Rod has only been at the helm of the locally owned and operated business

for just under two months, he has already noticed the huge amount of repeat work that Vistalite receives, thanks to the dedication of previous owner Trevor Norris, who had the business for 25 years, and the professional team.

Rod believes his past role as accounts manager has given him the skills to take on Vistalite Richmond and is keen to learn the nuts and bolts of the business so he can maintain the reputable name that Trevor successfully achieved.

When it comes to their services, the Vistalite team are dedicated to helping you find the best window and door solutions for your home and there’s no job too big or too small. If you’re building new, adding to your home or renovating an existing space, Vistalite Richmond has a comprehensive range of products that will suit your lifestyle and enhance your design. From curved windows, bay windows and opening skylights, to sliding or stacker doors, panel or French doors and much more, the team will custom create the perfect window or door solutions, including a free measure and quote on site.

Equipped and keen to take on any size job, even if it’s as simple as replacing rollers on a sliding door to whole house lots, Vistalite Richmond are proud to be a small team

When it comes to installation of a new window or door, the team is more than happy to do the job themselves or use the skills of some of the local, qualified builders that they are aligned with.

They’re also happy to act solely as a supplier if their clients have a preferred building company to take on the task.

Conservatories are another area that Vistalite excels in, creating a whole new living area for your home that can provide you with a warm and sunny haven in winter. Vistalite Richmond will help you choose the perfect conservatory, produced in their factory with guaranteed quality.

Their skills in double glazing will also come in hand during winter with the Vistalite Richmond team capable of retro fitting double glazing (even a window or two at a time) to any existing joinery, be it wooden or aluminium. By fitting double glazing you’ll reduce heat loss and noise from the outside, achieving a cosier, quieter home that will be warm in winter and cool in summer.

With a successful transition into the business done and dusted, Rod and the team at Vistalite Richmond look forward to helping people make the right decision when it comes to windows, doors, conservatories and retro fit double glazing for their homes.

Council approved GOOD WOOD suppliers will ensure you get dry wood and can give you good advice on storing wood for the following winter.

Like all busy men, John Mehrtens realises that it’s often easier to take the Mountain to Mohammed than it is for busy farmers, vintners, market gardeners and lifestyle block owners to find time for a trip to town, and do all of the research that buying new equipment entails. So he has arranged for all of his favourite gear John Mehrtens to be at one convenient location, with experts and representatives on hand to talk to you about their products; demos and displays to see them going through their paces (the equipment, not the experts!), and perhaps even a chance for you to have a go yourself. They will have the latest release tractors from Fendt, Massey Ferguson and Iseki; vineyard and agricultural equipment including mowers, mulchers, tractor mounted forklifts, airblast sprayers, vine trimmers and defoliators, vineyard sprayers, as well as the much awaited Challenger 500 utility vehicle, and much more. Mark the date in your diary and come along to check out the latest. And there’s a free lunch!

From the Rai Valley to Tapawera, Owen has sold property all over the region, balancing his love of selling rural properties, with the practicality of residential homes. “In real estate, everyone thinks we deal in dollars and cents but the real currency we deal in is that of trust,” says Owen.

When a property is put on the market there are a number of reasons why, it’s not just about the outcome, but being there to support people through the process.

Owen is also excited to offer clients advantages in advertising, increasing the chances of a successful sale. Home View provides people with a 3D walk through the home in virtual reality which means when they do come to view the home in person, they are not disappointed with rooms that appeared bigger or smaller. This new technology has proved popular with out of town buyers, even resulting in the sale of properties, sight unseen. For more information on selling your home and land, contact Owen today on 021 047 6352 or 544 8778.

It was a mere 40 years ago that The Apple Computer Company was formed, the first VHS home video cassette recorder hit the market, young kids everywhere were riding around on their chopper bikes with banana seats and ABBA’s Fernando and Dancing Queen were top of the charts. Back then the average weekly wage was $95 per week, the average hourly rate was $4.52. New Zealand opened the doors on the first McDonalds restaurant; sporting heroes Christian Cullen, Jason Rich- Kevin Krammer ards and Sarah Ullmer were born; Robert Muldoon was our Prime Minister...... and just as importantly, Kevin Krammer donned his apron, wielded his butcher’s knife, and started working for Westmeat, previously known as NZ Freezing Co and Premier Meats. Back then Kiwis were a ‘meat and three veg’ people. The average person scoffed nearly 90 kg of red meat each year and potatoes, carrots, cabbages and cauliflower were the main vegetables eaten. Our tastes and diets have changed over the years, but it’s great to know that Kevin is still around and leading his team of 28 staff at Westmeat Nelson to ensure we get the best quality products.

Just a thought...

Pastor David Jensen Richmond Baptist Church

After 29 years of reading the Bible I can say without question that it’s an amazing book.

One thing I really appreciate about it is that it’s so refreshingly honest, sharing the struggles and faults of its heroes as well as their amazing achievements. Another thing I really appreciate about it is that it is relevant.

The Bible addresses the big questions we face concerning relationships, internal

struggles, the meaning of life, fear, death, love and most importantly God. Another thing I appreciate about it is that it’s not PC, but says things as they really are.

Still another thing I appreciate about it is its amazing variety. So there are gruesome accounts of war but also beautiful stories of love. In fact, the variety extends to the fact that there are many different types of literature within the Bible, for example, The Psalms are kind of like diary entries made by some of the great saints of old as they

went through the highs and lows of life.

They are so honest containing prayers of praise and thanksgiving as well as prayers of confusion, disappointment and lament.

Books like Kings, Ezra and Exodus are historical in nature (focusing specifically on the outworking of God’s plan for Israel ites who were called to be a light to the nations) The prophets addressed many of the contemporary issues God’s people were facing at the time (BCE) but also, more importantly, foretold many significant future events that God had planned (for example the coming of Jesus).

The Gospels tell the story of Jesus from four different angles (they are selective biographies in that they focus on certain

specific aspects of Jesus’ life, death, teaching and ministry) The book of Acts tells the story of the early church after Jesus had ascended.

The Epistles are letters written by Jesus’ apostles (the apostles were men Jesus entrusted to faithfully announce the message of His good news). These apostles sent these letters to various churches as they worked through specific questions, problems and difficulties The book of Revelation encouraged the first generation of Christians in the persecution they were facing but also outlined key future events like Jesus’ return.

I want to encourage you to read this amazing book, try starting with the gospel of John.

Memorial Ball, Wednesday, April 27: The memorial ball for local dancer Claire Morgan was “amazing,” says her mother Sandra Maxfield. Over 120 people attended, including non-dancing friends of Claire’s who gave it their best shot on the dance floor. Sandra and organiser Pauline Harris also wish to thank those who helped set up the hall. As well as remembering the life of Claire, who passed away in 2014, the ball also aimed to raise money for the Nelson Tasman Hospice. Thanks to those who attended, the ball managed to raise $2400, which Sandra and Claire are proud to be able to donate to such a worthy organisation.

Bridget Budget answers your questions

Q: My son’s birthday party is

coming up and I’m worried about the cost. Do you have you any suggestions?

A: Keeping up with pricy expectations takes the fun out of parties.Most parents struggle with the costs. Give yourself permission to have a great party on a budget. Try these suggestions:  Birthday parties are not a competitive event; don’t buy into the idea of ‘keeping up with the Jones’s’.  Work out how much you can afford and stick to it.  Get your child involved in planning their party. With the budget you have set, your child can make decisions about what they want and what they will forgo.  DIY as much as possible: cake, food, games and cheap entertainment (eg. DVD hire)  Ask guests for a gold coin instead of a present OR set a price limit on gifts. Your child will get some cash/gifts and other parents will thank you!  Forgo the elaborate goodie bags - the contents quickly get discarded.  An extra piece of cake is a nice treat for guests to take home.

Celebrating your child’s special day does not require a lot of money. Reduce your stress by having a party you can afford without struggling. Your example could help reduce pressure on other parents too.

Bridie finishes 21st in world champs Jacob Page

Bridie Edwards took up running at 13 as a way to get fit for the netball season, three years later and she has represented New Zealand at the World Schools’ Cross-country Championships in Hungary.

The 16-year-old finished 21st out of more than 70 competitors from 20 countries in the international 3km race, in a time just over 11 minutes.

“My goal was to do the best I could and I was really happy with 21st.”

Her first international event came with a week-long training camp with the New Zealand team at London’s Hyde Park.

Despite her success on the world stage just a matter of weeks ago, Bridie was not brimming with confidence about winning the Waimea College crosscountry this week. “There is quite a fast girl who has transferred to my school, so it should be a good race.

“I started running when I was in Year 8 to get fit for netball and then I started to do well in my school cross-country and I started to enjoy it.

“I wasn’t very fit and I needed to change that for my sport. I got fourth in my school’s cross-country and I

Bridie no longer plays netball regularly in an effort to concentrate on running.

She chooses to fill-in for teams when needed. Bridie runs with a group three times a week for 8km and then runs solo two more times. She says it is the social side she enjoys most.

“I run with a great bunch of girls who make it enjoyable every time. It’s like catching up with your friends.”

Bridie would like to see how far her running takes her in the future but, for now, she’s keen to work on her technique. Bridie wished to thank Nelson Athletics and Total Print Solutions for helping fund her trip.

Richmond overpower Wakefield in Chatham Cup Jacob Page Richmond Athletic proved how powerful they are in the second half of games this season with a 5-1 Chatham Cup football victory against Wakefield at Wakefield Domain on Saturday.

Wakefield were gritty and often defiant in the first half in front of a vocal section of home fans cheering them on from the pavilion.

The Nelson Bays division one leaders were expected to win comfortably, but Wakefield refused to follow the script in the first 45 minutes.

Richmond’s Logan de Joux opened the scoring with a header after 20 minutes only for Wakefield to respond two minutes later with a headed goal of their own, through John Kawala.

It took a second half hat-trick from Bertie Fish and another from De Joux

to put the game beyond reach.

Up until then it had been scrambling defence and the ability of Wakefield goal keeper Hayden Ingham to make one-on-one saves which kept the home team in the tie.

Richmond midfielder Chester Gaskin also impressed with his workrate.

Richmond coach Matt Campbell paid tribute to Wakefield’s effort.

“They came out and were really dedicated to their cause and even at 3-1 down they pushed us.”

Matt says his team were guilty of too many cute first touches in the first half.

“We were being too fancy and you saw in the second half when we play direct and got the ball on the ground we started to find more space as the game opened up.”

Richmond will face FC Nelson in the next round of the Chatham Cup over Queen’s Birthday Weekend.

Nelson Giants captain Sam Dempster cut a forlorn figure post-match, following his team’s 9185 defeat to the Southland Sharks at the Trafalgar Centre last Friday .

There were no excuses given by the big centre, it was another case of a fast start and a mid-game slump which had cost the Nelson franchise and left their top four hopes dangling by a thread.

In the background sat injured star Finn Delany, on crutches, clearly in some discomfort but keen to point out his leg injury was “just a sprain, I’ll be back”.

How they could have used him last Friday. The Giants blew a 23-point second quarter lead as they went cold late in the game yet again.

“I’m disappointed – it sucks not to hold a lead like that,” Sam says.

Sam himself took on added responsibility with Finn out, he nailed a few three pointers early, a rare sight but a much-needed one. Then the second half came. Sharks big man Alex Pledger dominated the rebounds and tight exchanges and the Giants’ attack, which looked so good to begin with, faded.

“I don’t know why we are struggling in the middles of games, it is something we talk about but it keeps happening,” Sam says.

“We stopped moving the ball well on offence and Alex Pledger got too much space and time and he’s a class player, you can’t do that. You can’t fall asleep in this league at any point or you’ll get hurt.”

Sam defiantly says their championship hopes are not over.

“We still have two more games and we need to keep battling and putting pressure on those teams above us.”

The Giants will face the winless Hawke’s Bay Hawks on Saturday night at the Trafalgar Centre.

Waimea Old Boys lack intensity in defeat Jacob Page

Waimea Old Boys rugby coach Mark Milne says his side lacked intensity across the park in their 61-32 Tasman Trophy loss to Waitohi at Jubilee Park on Saturday.

The loss severely dents Waimea’s chances of a top four spot and kills off the momentum it gained over the past month of winning rugby.

Had they won the game, WOB would be

third on the ladder, now they are eighth.

Mark was realistic about what went wrong for them.

“You have to give credit to Waitohi, they had clearly done their homework on how and where to attack us and it worked.

“We lacked intensity right across the park, that’s what was most disappointing,” he says.

“When we went to Kaikoura to play East Coast a few weeks ago, I was really happy

with our defensive intensity and line speed – well, that wasn’t there against Waitohi.”

Waimea missed too many first-up tackles and even with two tries from halfback James Lash, there was little to smile about.

Mark did reserve praise for teenage prop Steven Ng who was playing on the tight head side instead of his preferred loose head.

“I know we’ve had our problems at scrum time but for a young guy playing on his

least favoured side of the scrum I think he deserves some recognition, because it’s not easy to do what he is doing.”

Steven also crossed for a try.

Mark says the players will need to work hard at training this week as they prepare to welcome another Marlborough team to Jubilee Park on Saturday in Harlequins.

They will face Renwick in Renwick to complete their round-robin games the following weekend.

WOB Div 2 too strong for Takaka Jacob Page Waimea Old Boys’ division two rugby team continued its surge up the table with a comfortable 48-14 win over Takaka at Jubilee Park on Saturday.

Fullback Epalahame Toia scored three tries as Waimea Old Boys’ ability to turn defence into attack crippled the visitors at times.

Winger Hetadaka scored two tries, kicked five conversions and a penalty for a total of 23 points.

WOB No 10 Jason Icon showed his running ability by also dotting down twice.

Waimea Old Boys coach Wayne Bateman says Takaka’s scattered approach to the game always took some adjusting to but he felt his team did well in both defence and attack.

Wayne says centre Michael Bates was instrumental in everything positive for the home team. “I thought we played really well,” Wayne says. “In attack there was

Waimea fullback Epalahame Toia on his way to scoring his third try of the game against Takaka.

Photo: Jacob Page. plenty of support for the ball carrier and in defence we held them out most of the time.”

Waimea initially struggled at the breakdown and they were penalised numerous times in the first half for not releasing the ball.

“We talked about that at halftime,” Wayne says. “We weren’t supporting the ball carrier and were slower to arrive than their flanker and he made us pay.”

While I did have a permit to burn wood and green waste etc, I also added to the fire some non-permitted materials which produced a thick black smoke. This led to several complaints from members of the public.

I wish to acknowledge this significant error of judgement on my behalf. I apologise sincerely to all who were inconvenienced or concerned as a result of my action.

I realise that fronting up publicly does not mitigate my error. However, I do wish to advise that there will be no future repetitions of this nature.
