WAXING LYRICAL ABOUT CLEAN EARS

Liz Kirkland believes it can be one of life’s simple pleasures having your ears cleaned. There is no water involved, no pain or discomfort. Just the world suddenly becoming light and airy. A wax build up can cause many problems ranging from dizziness, pain, and itchy ears, to a loss of hearing.

Liz is a registered nurse who chose to specialise in ear health six years ago. “Ears are often the forgotten organ but they are so vital to maintaining good health.” If Liz had her way, everyone in the community would have their ears checked once a year. “Regular ear checks and cleans is all about prevention rather than reacting when things go wrong.” If Liz detects anything serious and needing further treatment, she refers directly to the Ear, nose and throat (ENT) physicians at Wairarapa Hospital. Liz’s youngest patient has been just four months old, the eldest 103. Booking is easy and no referral required. Either book online at

Nalini and Colin Baruch, of Lot Eight in Martinborough, took home three prizes at this year’s Olio Nuovo Awards in Paris. PHOTOS/SUPPLIED Lot Eight olive oil wins big

Gianina Schwanecke

For the first time, a Martinborough couple’s extra virgin olive oil has been internationally recognised.

Colin and Nalini Baruch, of Lot Eight, have been making olive oil for 18 years, but this year’s Olio Nuovo Awards in Paris was the first time they had put their extra virgin olive oil to the test.

It was a move which paid off as their oils were named the best and second-best extra virgin olive oil in the Oceania category.

The couple was also recognised for their unique bottle labels, winning the Best Design in Arthur Hawkes Across Wairarapa, covid-19 tracing signs have gone up in every business premises, displaying the QR code scannable through the ‘NZ COVID Tracer’ app, created by the Ministry of Health.

The app was available on the Apple Store and Google Play Store, with the government encouraging its immediate installation. Businesses

Oceania award.

“This is Lot Eight’s first entry in a judging based on sensory analysis of olio nuovo, and in judging of our packaging,” Nalini said. “We are delighted with the results.”

To qualify as olio nuovo, the oil must be less than a month old at the time of analysis, which made for a slightly stressful experience, she said.

She said the win demonstrated how important every part of the oil making process was.

“This is Paris, a unique award programme with a highly creative and informed panel.

“This recognition is the most colourful and were able to create their unique QR code for free, using the web form on the Ministry of Health’s website.

Once signed up, usage was simple: just point the app [which uses the rear smartphone camera] at a QR code outside a premises, and your contact is instantly traced and uploaded to a database. If someone with covid-19 reports visiting the premises at a similar creative feather in my 25-year olive cap. What could possibly make me happier?”

She was especially proud of the bottle packaging being recognised.

“[The judges said] that the Lot Eight logo is unique and stands out in a crowd.”

The logo includes two elements close to her heart – the colour gold and the “playful quirkiness of art itself”.

She was delighted with the win and grateful to all who helped contribute

Lot Eight won rst and second place in the Best Olio Nuovo in Oceania category, as well as the Best Design in Oceania.

The requirement to display the posters was a legally-binding directive from the government, which said all businesses must have the posters in the window by the end of the week.

While reports of NZ COVID Tracer usage were sporadic during the earlier lockdown, the government appeared to now be very much encouraging its use.
