A crime spree was brought to a swift end when two men used their Judo and military skills to catch the suspect red-handed.The 29 year old man was caught on the roof of the former Ha-ven House Bed and Breakfast at around 9.30pm last Tuesday night, but only after he’d already caused damage to at least two other properties on Haven Rd.At the first property, which is cur-rently being renovated, he stole tools and tipped out 80 litres of paint over electrical appliances causing thousands of dollars worth of damage. He then went to Pegasus Car rental and broke a window before entering the backpackers next door. Owner Otto Barron says the man broke a second story window, climbed into the bedroom and put all of the valuables in the room into a suitcase and then climbed out an-other window and onto the roof.

Otto and several of his house-mates were home at the time and noticed him when housemate Nick Goody went outside for a smoke and saw a strange bike in the driveway.“It wasn’t an adult’s bike but not a little kid’s bike, it was just odd that it was there at that time of night so we went to put it in the shed so it was safe and had a bit of a look around,” says Nick.When Otto went to put the bike in the shed he noticed his bikes had been taken out of it and it was then the pair became suspi-cious that someone had been on their property. When they walked around the section to see if any-thing else had been moved, Nick

Light bike makes its way to schoolsA popular light bike has made its way to Nelson Intermediate and its creator hopes more schools will follow.The bike was created by John-Paul Pochin for the Light Nelson Festival in July. Pedal power from the bike charges the LED lights on an old tree and it was a popular feature of the festival.Now the bike is at Nelson Intermediate where students can give it a go and learn how it works. The timing of the bike was perfect for the school

says he saw the man crouching down on the roof. He alerted Otto by whispering his discov-ery to him and Otto says he confronted the man right away.“This is my house, my prop-erty and we’ve been working for three months to renovate it so I was really annoyed that someone would be sneak-ing around on the roof. I went straight to him and he told me he had a knife and would stab me if I didn’t back away. I’m a black belt in Judo so I still went at him, he kicked me in the shin and I grabbed him and we came off the roof.”Nick – a former soldier of the

British Army – then put the man in a choke hold and waited while Otto called the police. Police arrested the man and have since added charges in-cluding assault and burglary. The Takaka fisherman, is due

to appear in court on Septem-ber 9. Otto, also from the UK, says one of the reasons he moved to Nelson was because of its safety but says it was a “once in a blue moon” event.

Michael Threadgill, Nelson.

“For our house it is expensive, even though we now have so-lar power. It’s going to go up until someone does something about it.”

Julie Peters, Stoke.

“The power bill has increased, it is very expensive. We’ve also just gone from a fireplace to a heat pump.”

Rachel McLaren, Wakatu.

“I recently bought a house, and prior my bill used to be ghastly. Now I have other sources such as solar so it is cheaper. I also changed power companies.”

Sheldon Keir, Tahuna.

“It’s definitely gone up. Since this time last year it has prob-ably doubled, and the worst thing is no one is home during the day.”

which is currently working on an energy project.John-Paul says the bike took several months to make and it was some-thing he had to figure out as he went. “It’s very easy for children to get one of these computers, start playing around with it and programming them and see what they can make out of it. It’s a lot more straight for-ward than they’d think.”He says bringing the bike to schools and showing children how it works is a great way for the Light Nel-son festival to continue its work throughout the year.John-Paul says he’d like to take the bike to other schools as well.

TUESDAY 27 August 2013NelsonYour Community Newspaper Weekly

There’s plenty more fish in the sea for now at least, but will a quota rise deplete the stock?Prime Minister John Key ar-gues that the snapper quota de-bate is more talked about than the controversial GCSB Bill, as many condemn the idea of be-ing restricted to a three snap-per maximum catch off the North Island’s East Coast. But one Nelson fisherman thinks our recreational quota is too generous, and it’s about to be-come even more so.The Snapper 1 fishery zone cur-rently allows for a daily catch of ten snapper tops in the Chal-lenger Area. In the Marlbor-ough Sounds, however, it only allows for three. But with an apparent abundance of snap-per in those historically vacant waters, the Ministry of Primary Industries is proposing to lift that quota to five, which has rocked the boat of the presi-dent of the Nelson Dawnbreak-ers Fishing Club.Doug McKay wrote a personal submission after reading the proposal and says many more of his club members did the same. While those opinions may have differed, Doug re-

mains certain that anyone seeking more than the current quota is just being greedy and, being sceptical of the reported rise in Marlborough Sounds snapper, he is worried that snapper numbers could di-minish, resulting in a reduced quota in the near future. “To increase the quota to five in the Marlborough Sounds is just crazy,” he says. “In my ex-perience they’ve been harder to catch and you’d hate to ask the question in three year’s time, ‘should we have changed it?’”Doug believes some changes should be made closer to home, although it is a reduction not an increase that he would back. “There’s no way people can eat that much. It seems like an aw-

ful lot of fish to me. Some peo-ple think it’s their God-given right to catch that amount of fish but you can still have a lot of fun and put them back, it’s not difficult.”An official announcement on the proposal will be made on October 1 and it could also include a change to the num-ber of commercial snapper al-lowed to be caught. The total allowable catch in Snapper 1 is currently 306 tonnes per year. That is split between commer-cial (200 tonnes), Maori (16) and recreational (90) but could change to figures of 220 tonnes, 16 tonnes and 99 tonnes, mak-ing up a new 350 tonnes total.The submission cut off has al-ready been and gone.

Are snapper happy fishermen too greedy?

Increasing power prices are forcing some elderly to wrap themselves in a duvet and go to bed at 5pm in a bid to keep warm, says Grey Power president Neville Male.The revelation comes as many Nelso-nians struggle with sky high power bills, many blaming the use of heat pumps over traditional heating methods like wood burners.Stoke retiree Olga Reid says her power bill in summer months is usually less than $100, last winter it averaged $130 but earlier this month she was lumped with a pow-er bill closer to $350. She lives alone in a tiny unit and heats her home with a heat pump and eco-heater in her small hallway.She says she was completely shocked by the amount of the bill and simply doesn’t have the money to pay it. “Super[annuation] goes in, super goes out. I don’t have $350 for any bill, let alone a power bill.”Olga has resorted to putting up with the cold during the night and is furious that there is little help and wants the government to help out by double glazing homes like hers. She’s researched the cost of better insulating her home but the costs are too high for her.Neville Male says the issue is across the board with families of all ages struggling

to stay warm without blowing a huge hole in their wallet. “Up until this winter, over the past three years, power prices

have gone up 27 per cent and they’re ex-pecting they may go up another 7 to 10 per cent again this year so this is a con-stant issue.”He says people have been encouraged to install heat pumps but they struggle to heat homes when the air temperature outside drops below zero and that ac-

counts for a large chunk of the power bills.With no regulation, he believes the pow-er companies are free to hike prices as they see fit and he says things have got to change. “People wrapping up in duvets and going to bed at 5pm to stay warm. Well that’s just a totally an intolerable

circumstance for our senior citizens. We as an organisation will keep fighting to see that change.”Neville is a trustee of the Kiwi Energy Trust and he says that, along with other initiatives, will hopefully give locals an op-portunity to get cheaper power for next winter. The Nelson-based Kiwi Energy Trust was established earlier this year in an attempt to group users together and hopefully get a better deal. Chair of that trust, Aldo Mic-cio, says things are moving along well and Nelsonians that sign up to the trust can expect to see cheaper power prices by next winter. He says as more

sign up for the trust the better the end deal will be. “We know it’s going to work and now it’s just a matter of increasing our numbers so we can get those dis-counts of up to 20 per cent off power bills. That’s what we want to achieve.”To find out more about the trust visit www.kiwienergytrust.org.nz.

DHB cAnDiDATES confirmED: There are 23 candidates contesting seven posi-tions in the Nelson Marlborough District Health Board election this year. This is the fifth highest number in New Zealand, equal with Capital & Coast DHB. Six out of the current seven elected board members are seeking re-election. The only sitting board member not standing is John Inder. Voting is by postal vote in September and early October.

moST nElSoniAnS rEADY: The lat-est Colmar Brunton research into the Get Ready Get Thru campaign and New Zea-land ShakeOut shows the top of the South is ahead of the national average of being prepared. Just over six in ten Nelson/Mar-lborough residents, or 63 per cent, have taken steps in the last 12 months to prepare themselves or their household for a disas-ter, compared with just 51 per cent for the rest of the country.

corrEcTion: In last week’s Nelson Weekly we reported the names of the can-didates standing for Nelson City Council. We mis-spelt one of the names. For the record, it is Robbie Siataga/Kavanagh. The error is regretted.

Villagers ‘can’t wait’ for court

Buxton toilet ready for ‘wee makeover’Brisbane-based artist David Engwicht, with Nelson City councillor Kate Fulton, joins locals at a planning day for the Buxton Square toilets upgrade. Photo: Sinead Ogilvie

Buxton Carpark’s toilet block won’t be recognisable by the time its instant makeover is completed in November this year. But that is a good thing says Nelson City councillor Kate Fulton, who is spearheading the project alongside Brisbane based artist and consultant David Engwicht who has made the trip over for the task.A planning day was held on

Saturday and attended by community locals who are keen to have an input into the loo’s new look. A crowd of 40 people turned up full of ideas on what shape the toilets makeover could take, and Kate says the day was “very exciting” in terms of the ideas that were thrown around. “There were a lot of great ideas from a very positive group of people.”The project will involve

building and plumbing as well as gardening, painting, artistic creations and lighting and the community is encouraged to get involved says Kate. The makeover will take place in November, and the Nelson City Council has allocated a budget of $75,000 for it. A community led approach was decided upon after the last proposal council received for the job reached $340,785.

Residents of Waimea Village left a confidential meeting with their lawyer on Sunday stating they were upping the pressure in their battle with the owners of the village, Michael and Carolyn Wright.The meeting was held to discuss the residents’ court action against the Wrights over a repair and replacement fund that should have around $330,000 in it. Residents believe the money which they have paid from their levy payments is not in the account and the Wrights have refused to release documents to prove otherwise. The residents are going to court to have the fund managed by a board of trustees and say the Wrights can’t be trusted with it. Another issue that is on-going at the village is the massive levy increases. In 2010 the monthly levy fee was $80 per month. That has been upped to $125 and then $186.76. The Wrights are after another increase, this time to $304.52. That is likely to end up in arbitration with the residents rejecting the proposed increase.Several aspects of the levy proposal have caused concern among the residents, including the addition of one-off court and arbitration costs, which once added can never been taken out due to a ratchet cause in the lease. Residents still pay normal council

rates and other bills. The levy fee includes mowing of the lawn and maintenance of the common area and removal of green waste.The Wrights lawyer, Graeme Downing of McFadden McMeeken Phillips, did not return an email asking whether he thought the addition of the one off costs in the proposal was ethical.Chair of the residents committee, Jerry Rowland, says the meeting was well attended and was very informative. He declined to say what was talked about but did say it was in relation to the court case. “I can say the residents are more united and more in tune with each other now than ever before. We will fight this all the way.”The latest meeting comes after residents have complained of more “strange” behaviour from Michael Wright. Some residents told the Weekly he refused them entry to the village’s hall – owned by the residents committee – unless they signed a piece of paper. Michael has also called the police numerous times on residents and those connected with them. Police have not laid one charge in relation to any of Michael Wright’s complaints.

Plans to develop several council owned properties on Wakefield Quay will be brought forward for consideration early next month.The properties were previously occupied by Four Seasons and Reliance Engineering, along-side the Anchor Building and the Customhouse Hotel. Facilitated by councillor Pete Rainey with the support of mayor Aldo Miccio, the plans hope to encourage discussion about the proposed waterfront upgrade.Local architect Ian Jack, of Ir-ving Smith Jack Architects, who are responsible for prepar-ing concept drawings, says the plans will highlight a multitude of benefits for the Nelson com-munity. “The concept plans show how the whole area could be opened up for retail, hospi-tality and recreation opportu-nities, while at the same time increasing parking availability, and developing shared pathway

connections between the water-front and the city,” he says.Aldo says the idea will produce a range of economic and com-munity opportunities.“At this stage the plans are a concept only, but they provide us with a practical platform for discussion. The idea is based upon enhancing the waterfront

to create business opportuni-ties, a safe and more attractive environment, whilst protecting our heritage buildings,” says Aldo.“Not only would it enhance the area as a tourism destination, but it could also anchor the future direction for this iconic waterfront precinct.”

Robbie Williams spent several dec-ades working at sea so he knows first-hand how tough it was. But the Tahuna man says he couldn’t imagine doing it with a couple of world wars going on around you.He’s got a few stories about it though.Robbie’s father Percy was in the Merchant Navy during both World War 1 and World War 2. His mem-oirs recall several interesting sto-ries that Robbie says highlights the added stress for those in the Mer-chant Navy during the wars.Until four years ago the wartime efforts of those in the Merchant Navy weren’t officially recognised but the accounts of Robbie’s father, Percy Williams, clearly show the danger involved in what they were doing. Percy wrote that during WW1 a vessel called Port Kemble was blown up and sank off Cape Fare-well after it sailed through a mine-field laid by German raiders. He was on a different ship that went through that minefield several times before anyone knew about the mines. “Perhaps our draught was not deep enough to touch them and then again we may have been very lucky and just missed them.”In WW2 he was the master of the Totora which was owned by the Nelson-based Anchor Shipping and Foundry Co. He wrote that he had to have a course in gunnery and the Navy measured the ship

for machine gun placement, but the guns never eventuated.“We worked right through the war with one .303 as armament. I recall one trip we were instructed to pro-ceed from Gisborne to Auckland and on arrival we were taken over by the Navy and amid much se-crecy we loaded full cargo of high explosive projectiles for Lyttleton, at this particular time a German raider was in the New Zealand area. We got through alright with our .303 rifle but I’ve often thought what a prize we would have been to the Hun [German Navy].”Robbie says it’s fantastic that those who were in the Merchant Navy, many of them Nelsonians, are now recognised and he’s sure his dad would have been proud.New Zealand Merchant Navy day is on September 3 this year. The Nelson Merchant Navy Associa-tion is hosting this year’s annual commemoration at Anzac Park on August 31. It starts at 11am and everyone is welcome to attend the service.

Dale’s beer goes from home brew to commercial goldIn 2009 Monaco computer programmer Dale Holland thought he’d have a go at making his own home brew. His extraordinary journey from a novice to winning a gold medal at the recent NZ Beer Awards in just four years has surprised him as much as anyone.Dale quickly found a passion for making his own beer and in 2010 he made 15 litres of what he thought may be Belgian Pale Ale. He had never tried one before so decided to enter it into the New Zealand Home Brew Awards to find out from judges if it was or not. What happened next came completely out of the blue and set him onto a path as a commercial brewer.Dale’s drop was not only a Belgian Pale Ale but it was so good he won the overall prize for best beer at the awards. After the win his beer featured as a special brew at Sprig & Fern taverns as he had a strong relationship with its owners Dave Barrett and Tracy Banner. After its success he decided to launch his own label and start making commercial beer.

He called it Dale’s Brewing Co.He has since managed to get his four brews into supermarkets, including Fresh Choice, restaurants and bars all over Nelson and New Zealand. Earlier this month he won a gold medal for that very same beer at the beer awards, an incredible achievement considering his brief stint in the industry and the fact that only 41 beers out of the 541 entered, won gold. He says it’s been unbelievable. “It’s been a whirlwind, from brewing 15 litres of it at home to now brewing 4000 litres of it each time is pretty crazy.”Dale was far from the only local to win at the awards with Sprig & Fern, McCashin’s and Mussel Inn also winning medals and he says there is no nasty competition between Nelson’s craft breweries. “It’s like a big family, all the craft brewers. It’s a very cool industry.”He says his aim is to continue growing the brand and to continue having fun.Nelson Weekly is giving away two packs from Dale’s which include a beer glass and four bottles of beer.

The Tahunanui Business Asso-ciation says it seriously doubts figures quoted to them by Nelson mayor Aldo Miccio.Aldo told the association at a meeting last week that $6 mil-lion had been spent on Tahu-nanui recently but they say they

can’t see where and requested a breakdown of the spending by the mayor.On Tuesday Aldo told the Weekly that the figure included Wake-field Quay and if they were to take that out then it was more like $4 million. “Tahuna is a work

in progress, we’re working with different groups to make sure things are done right there. Right now we’re looking at spending $1 million on the modellers pond so to say we aren’t spending money there is off the mark.”Chair of the business association,

Mike Thomas, says Tahuna has been left out when you compare it with other suburbs in the city.“Wakefield Quay is definitely not part of Tahunanui. Much of the money has been spent on city and region wide facilities in the Tahu-nanui Reserve.”

He says the community is united on getting action from the council on other issues with Tahuna in-cluding high density housing, ac-cess to shopping services, storm-water, coastal erosion, Tahunanui reserve management, liquefac-tion and earthquake risks.

Doubts over mayor’s spending claims


For five years parents and teachers of Nayland Primary School have been sing-ing, dancing and laughing their way to a fundraising goal for a new indoor facility at the school.After next month’s show they’ll have raised enough to make it happen, but don’t expect that to mean an end of the famous production.Nayland principal Janice Gulbransen says they will have raised their $100,000 target after this year’s show which will mean work on their new multi-purpose building can start in November.“The first year we raised $13,000 and it’s grown every year. Now, after five years, we have enough to build our new facil-ity,” she says.Money from the Ministry of Education will also be used for the building which will allow the school to hold assemblies featuring the entire school, science fairs, drama and arts, gymnastics, school dis-cos and host speakers.This year’s show is called Class of ’69 and will feature 30 parents and teachers. One of the organisers, Trish Parkins, says ticket sales have been really strong with the final show already sold out. “It has a really good reputation now and we sell a lot of tickets really fast but we still have plenty to sell and we want a full house for each show.”Last year’s show raised $25,000 and Jan-ice says it is now a Nayland tradition. “We don’t do a school fair, this is what we do and it’s different to everyone else. We’ve got amazing parent support and

one of the successes of the show is that we always get new people and it’s the same this year.”Janice says the show builds a strong con-nection between parents, students and the school. “We’re really lucky, it’s built a real sense of community around the school. Not just for people in the show and all those who help out on the night doing all sorts of jobs adds to the whole sense of community.”She says some parents have taken part each of the five years and it’s especially

nice for them to see their hard work achieve the desired result. The cast have been preparing for the show since February and it has been put together by parent Margie Meleisea and the script written by teacher Mare Mac-Mahon. It follows classmates from their school days in 1969 to their reunion.Tickets for the shows held on Septem-ber 14, 20 and 21 are available from the school and the cast says anyone coming along should expect a great night out with plenty of laughs.

A paua poacher has been sentenced to 11 months in prison after being caught with over 10 times the daily paua limit.Day Van Tang, 30, was found guilty in Nelson District Court last week after he was caught with two sacks containing 139 paua, most of which were undersized.Tang admitted knowing the daily limit and said he did not measure any of the shellfish, says Ministry for Primary Industries district compliance manager Ian Bright.The court also banned him from fishing for three years, and the vehicle and gear used in the offending were seized.Tang was caught following a paua hunt with his brother, Hanh Tang, at a secluded spot on the Kaikoura coast in July last year.Fishery officers apprehended the pair as they were returning to Nelson following a tip-off from the public. Hanh Tang was fined $2000.Ian says he was pleased to see the courts send-ing a strong message that this kind of blatant poaching would not be tolerated."This isn't the first time he has been in front of the courts for offences involving paua and it goes to show that the message simply won't get through to some people. I hope he takes the time to reflect on the foolishness of his actions. He has a long while to do so."

After the success of last year’s fundraising event, the Car Company has once again teamed up with Nelson Women’s and Children’s Refuge to help them raise some money.Last year, the Car Company took to the streets and asked the Nelson community to dig deep into their pockets to support the refuge. As a result, more than $18,000 was raised to help prevent and stop domestic violence. Shane Drummond, of the Car Company, says the feedback from the community last year was incredible. “Some of the stories we heard while we were out collecting blew us away – domestic violence happens in all walks of life every day.” Shane and his team have had a long standing relationship with refuge. “Recognising how much this organisation does for our community at all hours of the day and night and on a shoestring budget, together with our own commitment to giving back to the local community is the driving force behind our decision to do it all again.” The Car Company will be donating

$50 from the sale of every car they sell during the month of September. There will also be a quiz night, a charity auction, street appeals and any other opportunity they can think of to raise money.Trudie Brand, manager of the refuge, says she was overwhelmed by the generosity of the Nelson public and the amazing efforts of the Car Company team last year. “We are enormously grateful that they are repeating their efforts again this year and we will all be working really hard to make it a huge success.”Anyone who wants to donate to the appeal or has auction items that can be donated can contact Belinda Koloamatangi at the Car Company’s head office or Trudie Brand and Nelson Women’s Refuge.

Forty years, two million apple bins and 37,000 hours on a forklift. They are impressive stats and Nelson man Reg Nicholson has done it all with a smile on his face.Last week Reg retired from ENZA Foods NZ after 40 years at the company. He started in a packing shed in 1974 but after three weeks secured a job as a storeman and a few years after that became a forklift driver. His workmates say it’s his skills on a forklift and his cheery demeanour that he will be remembered for.“The thing with Reg is that he’s even smiling now, smiling right up until the last day,” says workmate for 24 of those 40 years Mike Donnelly. “That’s been my motto,” says Reg. “Everyone gets a wave and smile from me, even if they don’t wave back.”To go along with the vast number of years and hours he’s clocked up, Reg has also had a few different names at the top of his pay check. When he started it was called Industrial Products, Division of the Apple and Pear Board before undergoing several changes including Fruit Processors, ENZA processors, ENZA Foods and now ENZA Foods New Zealand.Reg’s main job was to unload bins of fruit from incoming trucks and reload them with empty bins, ready to be taken back to the orchards. In the early 1990s that could include handling up to 6000 bins a day, 3000 full bins and 3000 empties, although that number has now dropped to around 2400 on a busy day. The company uses the

apples that aren’t up to export standard to make fruit products like diced apples and apple sauce. He says he’s loved the 40 years.“The reason why we’ve all stayed here so long is that every year is different, because every season the growing has been different

so you don’t know what’s coming in. Even though we’re on the one site, the variety keeps you going and keeps you interested.”He says he got to know “every bump” in the yard and will keep his hand in it, staying on as a casual worker when needed during

the busy periods. But the immediate future doesn’t include any apples says Reg. He has a few old cars to work on and a few gardens to maintain. “I’m quite happy with that and I’m looking forward to having a bit more time in my life.”

Pet cat loses leg in illegal trap:I'd happily teach them some valu-able lessons via super-glue and a

pair of pliers. Richid Whiting.

Eye for an eye....in this case, leg for a leg...10 years jail time.

Nessa Limmer.

That's so cruel. I forget that people can be this disgusting, cruel and

vindictive to something so innocent. Five

years jail, no parole, $2000 donation to both SPCA and owner of cat. Victoria White.

I thought that sort of moronic hill-billy crap only happened in south-

land... can't be a Nelsonian who did this no Nelsonian would do something so in-humane and stupid. Louise Armstrong.

At the very least they need to pay the vet bill for the cat but a hefty fine (to be donated to SPCA) and perhaps blindfold them and send them through a paddock full of gin traps? Made me sick when I read this story. Tania Brunell.

Put their leg in it and see how they like it - just my

opinion!! Helen Bisley.

I agree Helen - let them try and chew their way out

like the poor cat. Makes me sick. Keryn Sheppard.

I wonder if the owner is scared to claim it because

they can't afford the vet bill and think they maybe be expected to pay up, maybe some clarifica-tion on this would be helpful... Michelle Walker.

Nearly happened to my friend who was doing vol-

unteer work in local native forest and someone who set up a gin trap there. Jay Park.

Nelson's building boom:Good for us that are in that indus-try!

Daniel Parker Richardson.

Its great. The only drawback with living here was a bit of a lack of

shops from a competition point of view, well and sunshine wages, all these new places will require staff, it might give the wages a boost to the region as well. Dez Tinee.

More roads ripped up... great. Taylor O'Carroll-Reed.

What's the point? The entire mon-ey system won't survive for much

longer, it's at it's end and more new stores will be a waste. Glenn Holmes.

Yay new things to look at,can't wait.Can we please get a new mov-

ie theater also while we are on a roll. Bonita Wilkinson.

Why not, who cares about the im-pending severe depression right?

Ryan Fouhy.

Warriors set to play at Trafalgar Park in early 2015:

Awesome, it's a wee wait though. Amber Rose Hewlett

Im gonna be there ... Yeeehhaaaah-hh. Barbara Duggan.

Mean! Alicia Tarapipipi

This is awesome!!! Alesha Simmons

Cannabis plant found on cycle trail:We just couldn't leave it there". Agreed, leaving a natural organic

plant in the wild will hurt so many people and cause so much damage to the environ-ment. Bob (via website).

Arrhh. I wondered what happened to that plant, haha. (Via text).

That's unbelievable. I would have been really upset if it was my chil-

dren who'd found it. Good on the lady for calling the police. (Via text).

Shooting star?We just saw a really bright shooting star, and really low too.

Sent via text on Monday night.

Cows steal beef:Here's a scoop for you, three men dressed as cows robbed Raeward

Fresh in Richmond on Friday and stole, you guessed it, steak. My husband was there at the time and he couldn't believe it.(Via text).

Take the Power Back

Ph: 021 482 088 or 542 2328

Email: [email protected] Electrician

• Cut your electricity bills: sunlight is free, so once you’ve paid for the initial installation your electricity costs will be dramatically reduced

• Sell electricity back to the grid: if your system is producing more electricity than you need, or when you can’t use it, you can sell the surplus back to the grid.

• Fix your power prices for the next 30 years. Regardless of what the power companies do in the future, with the correct sized system, you determine your power usage.

Since 2002 average residential electricity prices have risen by 4.7 percent a year in “real” terms (over and above the general rate of inflation). That’s a huge hike in costs to consumers over this period.” Consumer.org.nz

Rowan Dron Electrical provide and install Grid-Tie Solar systems. These convert light from the sun into DC electricity through P.V (Photovoltaic) Solar Panels mounted on your roof. This DC electricity is then converted into usable AC by a solar inverter, which is connected into your switchboard. A special electricity meter on your switchboard called an import export meter enables you to sell any excess power back to your power company.

your home

Rowan Dron Electrical If you are building a new home, build it to last and start thinking about the different ways your home can work for you, both now and well into the future.With future electricity price rises in mind, it’s time to talk solar energy. If you’ve dreamt of getting rid of your power bill once and for all, take the power back from your electricity provider today and get a PV Solar Grid Connect system into your home with Rowan Dron, your local electrician.Rowan specialises in solar energy

and he would love to tell you about how your home can save you money on your power bill. With summer just around the corner now is the perfect time to install solar energy. Installing a PV

Solar Grid Connect system means you will generate free power from the sun and use a green source of energy and effectively zero out your power bill. Your power company will then either buy the savings you have generated directly off you or, put your account into surplus, depending on what provider you are with.Rowan can help you decide on the best system to suit your requirements, fixing your energy costs and therefore helping your home work for you. For example: A system of just 2kw will generate enough power to keep you in hot water and then some, so you can generate around $1000 worth of electricity savings per year. Rowan is happy to offer free and honest advice on what options will suit you best, and installs only the best quality European and Japanese made products, with a 25 year system guarantee.While you’re considering future proofing your home, ask Rowan about a Positive Pressure ventilation

system. A heat recovery system draws fresher drier air into your home through your roof cavity or directly from outside. It is then passed through a filter before it is introduced to your home. The drier healthier air produced is then easier to heat, making your existing heating more efficient. Rowan and his team have been installing the Positive Pressure ventilation systems for years and will give you straight up, honest advice about what will suit your house best.Give Rowan a call and arrange for him to visit and provide a free quote for taking the power back from your electricity provider. Both he and team member David are fully qualified registered electricians. They offer a complete range of residential and commercial requirements and guarantee quality workmanship and service. They are excited to announce they have recently taken on apprentice Ethan Philips which is another great step forward for the successful, growing business.

varies, but if it’s not the dress she dreams of wearing, or windy day poppies spreading their colour across canvas, it’s always a piece made with true passion for what she does. If after you visit the design store you become inspired to turn your hand at sewing, or you are

already a home sewer, you might like to visit the Jellicoe Design outlet store in The Wakatu Estate.

There you will find a huge range of fabric and

off cuts, perfect for letting your imagination run wild and creating something wonderful yourself.

Current GenerationIf you are building a new home, it’s time to think about future proofing it now with a solar grid connected power system. Reap the re-wards from your first power bill! Talk to Current Genera-tion about installing a solar system that will keep your money in your pocket.Current Generation is an al-ternative energy business lo-cally owned and operated by Arny and Michelle who have been in the energy business for 8 years. They have lived off the grid on Jackett Island

for 10 years and Arny has over 30 years engineering and electrical experience. A grid tie or grid connected solar system is an alterna-tive power system designed for homes, where they are still connected to mains power (or grid). The system provides a way for you to produce your own electricity that can be used directly in your home to power lights and ap-pliances thereby reducing your electricity bill. During the day when your system is creating power, you use free power, saving what you

would have normally paid to your power company and reducing or eliminating your electricity bill. At night when your panels can’t produce electricity, you draw your power from the electricity network in the normal way. When the system is gener-ating more electricity than is needed, for example dur-ing the day when no one is home, your power company pays you for the surplus. Each electricity retailer has their own terms and con-ditions for buying excess electricity and the price that they offer per kilowatt hour

(kWh), called the buy-back price, will vary. At present Contact Energy offer 17.3 cents per unit and Meridian offer 25 cents for the first 5 units per day and 10 cents for every unit after that.As the price of solar panels has decreased dramatically over the past few years, investing in a solar system now produces a high return on investment mak-ing it far more attractive than keeping your money in the bank.Solar energy is a source that will supply electricity, long term, with no continuous financial input, no environmental impact and will not affect your lifestyle,

it is an exciting investment!A 3.2 kw system that will pro-vide the average household about half their power use over 12 months will cost approx. $10,500.00 fully installed.Current Generation’s business philosophy is to be straight up, offering qualified expertise, proven quality products and in-stallations by an experienced crew.Current Generation walk the talk, their Pascoe St premises runs off a PV solar system, so head in and talk to them about the amazing benefits of solar power today.

www.flashman.co.nzwww.flashman.co.nz

Low maintenance exterior aluminium cladding systemTimeless weatherboard cladding that won’t rust, rot, crack, twist or warpBevelBord is a COMPLETE cladding & flashing SYSTEM which combines unsurpassed weather tightness with classic, ageless design. The BevelBord cladding system is designed, fabricated, installed and warranted (only) by Flashman. What are the benefits of Aluminium cladding over timber and fibre cement weatherboards?

• Won’t rot, twist, crack, warp or suffer from resin bleed.• Doesn’t need painting.• Low maintenance – clean with a hose.• Low life cycle cost compared to other claddings - not just the initial cost but the ongoing cost of painting every 7-10 years.• Lower scaffolding costs than with painted claddings. Because the cladding is pre-painted with durable powdercoating, the scaffold is removed immediately after the cladding is installed.• No extra time spent painting and re-scaffolding in order to repaint every 7-10 years.• Traditional, classic look but with none of the repetitive and costly maintenance care required of weatherboard, ply, fibre cement or plaster finishes.• Lends itself to residential and commercial buildings.

• Strong clean modern look with seamless joints for extreme weathertightness conditions.• 50 year minimum durability.• 15 year Product Warranty.• 10 year Installation Warranty.• Aluminium is available in a huge abundance of supply andis easily produced and recycled. The choice of aluminumis a responsible environmental decision.• No reliance on sealants. When Flashman Products are usedyou enter a Sealant Free Zone.• Permanent material.• The life of the cladding will outlast the building in most cases.

FlashmanIf you are building or renovat-ing, then start as you mean to go on and say no to a leaky home or building. For strong, durable cladding and flashing systems and the peace of mind that comes with them, talk to Flashman, the kiwi owned business built on years of weathertightness experience repairing and correcting the effects of bad building practice and the use of inferior materi-als and flashing practices, that together have caused billions of dollars damage to as many as 80-100 thousand homes throughout the country.Flashman is a fully NZ owned nationwide team of industry veterans who specialise in the design and installation of pre-mium quality, durable, highly innovative, weathertight Clad-ding and Flashing Systems that have been BRANZ Appraised and tested to hurricane condi-tions of 232Kph.Flashman offer high perfor-mance weather tight systems for homes across the Nelson, Tasman, Marlborough and Buller regions. Their cladding and flashing systems are based on sound building and scientif-ic principles which have prov-en reliable and trustworthy over many centuries in build-ings all over the world. Their low maintenance exterior alu-

minium and flashing systems offer timeless weatherboard cladding that won’t rust, rot, crack, twist or warp. With no need to paint and unlimited colour options in both bright and dark colours, the opportu-nities are endless and the low maintenance products save you a fortune in scaffold and regular painting costs.Flashman offer Bevelboard and Dualboard cladding sys-tems (Dualboard can be fixed horizontally or vertically hence the name). Both of which of-fer either an architectural or traditional, classic look with-out the repetitive and costly maintenance care required of weatherboard, ply, fibre ce-ment or plaster finishes. With a 100 Year serviceable life, both systems lend themselves to residential and commercial buildings and result in a strong, clean, modern look with seam-less joints for extreme weather tightness.A whopping 50% of leaks found in leaky homes occur at the window or door cladding junc-tions. The owners and inven-tors of the patented Flashman Flashing System have traced many of these leaks to the widespread use of sealant as a means of flashing.Many homes constructed to-day are still using sealants as the main method of flashing.

Flashings are basically steel, aluminium or other metal or durable materials that prevent water ingress at a junction or join in the roof or exterior walls. Windows and door open-ings are the most vulnerable aspect of any building. If water can’t get into these joints, the structure will be weathertight.Sealant is not a long term flashing alternative. Billions of dollars in home repairs and rebuilds bear this out. Homes and other structures without

robust flashings of sound de-sign and durability have an ex-ponentially higher chance of “Best Practice” flashing design and installation. Their clad-ding and flashing systems are sealant-free, resulting in a ro-bust, good looking, long-term, complete exterior cladding and flashing systems that simply won’t let you down.While the Flashman reputation is nationwide their values are still local and that is why so many Nelsonians trust Flash-

man when it comes to building or renovating their homes.Their Nelson team (backed up by a national head office) pro-vide Nelson, Tasman, Marlbor-ough and Buller regions with expert design, fabrication, in-stallation expertise and advice in all areas of exterior cladding and flashing, providing peace of mind through avoidance of future leaks and structural damage.Visit www.flashman.co.nz for more information.

Choose Richmond Glass to double glaze your ex-isting windowsRetro-fit double glazing lets you enjoy the warmth and comfort of your existing home by replacing your single glass with the latest ThermaTech double glazing.Richmond Glass has been car-rying out this straightforward process in many different kinds of homes, mainly around the Top of the South Island but also as far south as Arthurs Pass, for several years, giving homeowners warm results while also lowering their energy costs. Whether you have timber or aluminium framed win-dows, Richmond Glass has a dou-ble glazing solution to suit your needs.If you have aluminium-framed windows, a retro-fit could not be more simple. Richmond Glass re-places the existing exterior glaz-ing beads with the manufactur-er’s double glazing beads. Where that’s not possible, Richmond Glass uses its own multi-fit dou-ble glazing retaining beads, and where necessary, its new opening sashes. The new beads are pow-der coated or anodised to closely match the colour of your existing window frames.If you have timber-framed win-

dows, Richmond Glass uses the patented ‘Retro Fit NZ’ drainage adaptor energy saving system which allows all existing timber windows to be retained.With a retro-fit you have the best of both worlds; your home is vir-tually unchanged plus you gain all the benefits of double glazing. The work is quick and unobtru-sive. Richmond Glass experts will measure your windows, the new units will be made locally in Nel-son and a date set for your double glazing to be installed. Richmond Glass advises you every step of

the way. One of the company’s home improvement representa-tives will call on you and outline your options. A quotation is sup-plied without cost or obligation.Richmond Glass also checks that the task can be done within the building’s structure and that all technical specs and measure-ments are correct. Dealing with Richmond Glass you know that your home is entrusted to a lead-er in the glazing industry in New Zealand.Whatever the size or shape of your windows, Richmond Glass will handle it.

How does double glazing workRichmond Glass uses ThermaTech double glazing which consists of two or more panes of glass sepa-rated by an aluminium spacer, bonded together to form a com-pletely sealed unit called an Insu-lating Glass Unit or IGU.Heat and cold pass through single glass, whereas ThermaTech units trap a layer of air or Argon gas between two panes, creating a kind of blanket that protects the warmth of your interior. This re-duces heat transfer from inside to outside during winter and outside to inside in the summer months,

ensuring improved warmth and cooling in your home and also re-ducing energy costs by significant amounts.

Planitherm total low E glass for maximum effectPlanitherm Total Low E Glass is a high performance Low E coated glass, made of clear float glass on which a thin, transparent coat-ing has been deposited by mag-netron technology. This coating drastically reduces the heat trans-fer between inside and outside.Planitherm Total Low E Glass ther-mally performs approximately 10 percent better than standard hard

coat Low E glass commonly used in New Zealand. On top of this it does not suffer from the haze ef-fect of standard hard coat Low E. The finished product has a near crystal clear appearance that will not interfere with your views.

Stay warm without con-densationAs a building’s interior is warmed, there is an increased prospect of condensation, mould and mil-dew. Condensation forms when warm air containing moisture meets a cold window surface. If the conditions are right “dew point”

is reached and condensation forms. As the inner pane of Ther-maTech glazing remains substan-tially warmer than single glazing, condensation is dramatically re-duced.Nothing can completely elimi-nate condensation but ThermaT-ech double glazing comes close. In many cases moisture problems disappear forever, while in other situations just a small amount of condensation forms at the bot-tom of a window or frame. This is caused by factors such as ventila-tion rather than glazing. If you’re building new or have an existing home that needs warm-ing then call Richmond Glass.

The two sheets of glass are line bonded by computer control to pre-cise tolerances with a special dual seal around an aluminium spacer. Individual windows up to 3.15 by 2.4 metres can be produced.

Lynfords Furniture Lynfords Furniture is a local family business, with two stores. One at 302 Queen St in Richmond next to Noel Leemings, the other in the new location 43 Scott St Blenheim, after last years move further down Scott St than be-fore, to a larger and single story building.Our focus continues to be quality NZ made furniture,- giving our customers the ability to buy straight off the floor, or to personally choose their own colours, fabrics, leather, and com-binations of pieces to suit their home and taste. Also to choose from is a range of quality imported products, the original Stress-less chairs and sofas from Norway, and a wide variety of other lounge, dining, & oc-casional furniture, as well as mirrors, rugs and accesso-ries. This gives an extensive range of options, styles, and price points, the best of NZ made and global products to choose from.Being an independent family

business means we have the luxury of making all our deci-sions of what we will stock, for ourselves, based on how we see our market, and the

various trends, both fashion wise, and seasonal, making sure we stock a good mix of what our customers need liv-ing in the top of the south. At present we are busy choos-

ing great new designs and colours for our new outdoor ranges of furniture, lots of new options for our out-

door living areas, which will also complement the indoor outdoor flow of our lifestyle that we enjoy, living in such a pleasant climate.

As our population is relatively small, but with a diverse range of taste, ages and budg-ets, its important that we have a variety of furniture, as much as is possible, to match these factors. The dif-ference in our two shops also reflects this.We are proud to be the exclusive supplier of

the NZ made danske mobler furniture, made in Auckland, and Stressless chairs import-ed by them, to the Nelson Marlborough area.Our interior design service,

along with the va-riety of products we stock, means we can put the complete look to-gether for our cli-ents, helping them to furnish their homes in the way they desire, tak-ing as much of the

stress out of it as possible, so it can be an enjoyable process from beginning to end.

Whether you have definite personal goals, like saving for a house, retirement or funding your children’s education, or you’re facing a raft of financial challenges like many New Zealanders, the businesses on this page will be able to make a difference to your future. Money week is coming

up so NOW is the best time to get finances under control and set long term goals.

Everyone can benefit from a budget. It’s not just for people who are having trouble making ends meet.

If you’re spending less than you earn, use your budget to work out how much you can put aside each pay to improve your financial position. We call this ‘paying yourself first’.If you’re spending more than you earn, use your budget to see where your money is going. Then see if there are any ways you can cut your spending or increase your income.Your budget needs to be accurate or it won’t work. Give yourself time to get all the information you’ll need, including:• A record of your day-to-day spend-ing. Keep receipts from your shopping, and gather up bank statements and bills from the last three months. These will show regular expenses like rent, mortgage, hire purchase, credit cards, phone, power and insurance.• A list of annual costs. Think about things you pay for less regularly like ve-hicle licensing, medical expenses, gifts and holidays.• Your income details. A list of any money you get such as your pay, ben-efits or allowances, NZ Super or interest

earned on savings.• Savings. Details of any regular savings you make.• Budgeting isn’t just about watching your spending. How much you earn also affects whether you have money left over for saving or paying off debt.

• Why you need to grow your income• If your income doesn't grow you’ll effec-tively earn less each year just because of inflation. So when you're planning your finances, don't forget to include goals for growing your income.• Know what you’re worth• Do you know what someone in your position with your experience and skills should be earning? Does your employer?• To find out what you're worth, read the situations vacant in your local paper or check out the online job sites. You could even contact some recruitment agencies to find out what a similar job to yours is currently paying.If you need help making a budget, or if you are having trouble making ends meet, contact a budget adviser.

Biz Rescue LtdThere are myriad reasons why businesses struggle or fail. The effects of such strug-gles are not limited to the business en-vironment but impact on the emotional health of the owners, their relationships and families. So if your business is in this worrying situation one thing is clear –

it’s time to get your “head out of the sand” and face real-ity. This will involve asking help from your accountant. If their contribution has been limited to annual accounts it’s time to get them more involved with diagnosing the problems and brainstorming solutions with the aid of cash flow forecasting etc. “Where there’s a will there’s a way” - if both the energy and strategies are present there is a future for your business. If you don’t have an accountant, or just want some short term support to turn your busi-ness around, contact Biz Rescue Ltd on 546-7999 or email: [email protected]

TUESDAY 27 August 2013NelsonYour Community Newspaper Weekly Feature 19

TSB Bank was set up in 1850 on the principals of self-reliance and independence. And 160 years on, those principals are still true today.

It has grown into New Zealand’s largest and strongest independent bank. It’s been a great success story, but not one without its challenges.

Back in 1985 the government proposed to merge all of New Zealand’s twelve independent banks into one big one. They delivered an ultimatum – get in line or be doomed.

TSB Bank decided they didn’t want to throw away 130 years of independence. They knew it wouldn’t be in the best interests of their customers. The pressure to merge was intense – from the other banks, and the government.

TSB Bank stood firm.

The merger went ahead without them. But within a few years it faltered and was sold off to a big Aussie bank.

How did it work out for TSB Bank?

They went from strength to strength – with customers from Cape Reinga to Bluff, to all corners of the world.

They’re still making their own decisions. Still giving customers the kind of care and attention they’ve always been known for.Putting customers first is as important to them today as it was nearly 28 years ago. As far as they’re concerned, it’s just a better way to bank.

100% New Zealand ownedNot having overseas owners means that they can make decisions based on what’s best for their customers. So if they want to NOT charge you cheque, ATM1 or EFTPOS transaction fees, it’s up to them. Having real people on the other end of the phone when you call? That’s their choice too.

Customer first philosopyTSB Bank has been rated highest for customer satisfaction in the banking category over and over again. Most recenty they were awarded Canstar Blue’s 2013 ‘Most Satisfied Customers in Banking’ award which questions Kiwi’s on their satisfaction with their Bank across seven categories. It’s hardly surprising when you consider their amazing customer service record. So what’s their secret?

TSB Bank’s Managing Director/CEO Kevin Murphy says:

“We are guided by one key thought: what would we expect if we were the customer?”

Strong financial performanceTSB Bank has just reported an impressive 10.6% increase in pre-tax profit for the last financial year. Their Capital Adequacy Ratio (an industry measure of financial strength), at 14.56% continues to be one of the strongest of all banks in New Zealand.

Kevin says “We’re totally New Zealand owned and all of our funding is obtained from within New Zealand – we rely wholly on the deposit support of our customers.”

Convenient banking Wherever you are in New Zealand, or the world, banking with TSB Bank is easy. There’s an office right here in Nelson, on the corner of Bridge and Trafalgar Streets.

If you can’t make it to TSB Bank’s offices, HomeBank is their Internet, phone and text banking service – you can access your accounts, make payments, review transactions and transfer money.

[my]bank2, the Bank’s mobile banking

app, lets you open, close and even personalise how your accounts look.

You can also sort your day to day needs through the TSB Bank Direct call centre. Their friendly staff can answer all your queries in person Monday to Friday, 8.30am until 7pm. They’re so helpful in fact, they won the 2010 CRM Contact Centre Award.

Fees? What fees?TSB Bank have a philosophy of low or no fees. There are no cheque, EFTPOS or bank owned ATM* fees, on any of their accounts. So how exactly do TSB Bank make their money? The old-fashioned way – they earn it.

Where does your money go?TSB Bank’s investment strategy has always been somewhat conservative, and largely home loan focused. As Kevin Murphy explains:“Most of our investments, up to 70% of our assets in fact, go into providing home loans for everyday New Zealand families. This has been our investment mainstay for over 100 years now, and it will continue to be so.”

Full range of accounts on offerTSB Bank offers a rewarding range of personal cheque, transactional, savings and investment accounts. Whatever you want to do with your savings, TSB Bank has an option to suit.

Taking care of all your banking needsIt’s not just savings that TSB Bank does well. If you’re in the market for a home loan, TSB Bank takes a flexible approach - you can mix and match from a range of options to suit your finances and lifestyle.

celebrates 30 glorious years as Hilux being the coun-tries number one best selling ute, as well as the chance for everyone to really experience what the Bowater Toyota off road range is truly capable of. We have prepared a very demanding off road course that includes rivers, river beds, muddy banks, steep hill work and some serious undulations - all of the kinds of situations you would expect in serious off road adventures. We have cou-pled this with the skill and mentoring of the knowledgeable team from Makoura 4WD Trainers who will be with us on the day giving advice and some dem-onstrations on vehicle recovery and off road technique amongst other things. Radio Hauraki's night time host Mr Mikey Havoc is coming down to Nelson especially for the event, and is sure to inject some humour and tomfool-ery into the day. Everyone is invited, it will be very family friendly and we will even lay on a BBQ lunch! Visit our website www.bowaters.co.nz/toyota to learn more, and we will see you there!

Too many riders are crashing and being injured on our roads. Stats show the majority are due to rider errors in judgement, handling and observation. These crashes are avoidable. Book a Rider Training Course with Ride to Live now and take control of your riding. Courses are split into different levels to suit all abilities of riders on all sizes of bikes, from college students on 50cc mopeds to returnee riders on 1600cc Harleys. Moped courses are held on tennis courts and the motorbike courses are run at the kart tack on the Moutere Highway. Courses teach a range of skills, including cornering, braking, hazard avoidance, group riding, riding position, the importance of wearing good safety and hi-visibility gear. The motor-bike courses are split into courses for progressive riders

and advanced riders. Progressive courses are for riders who have not attended a Ride to Live or motorbike training course before, who typi-cally hold a learner or restricted motorbike li-cence and who have been riding less than 5 years. Advanced courses are for riders who have attended one previous Ride to Live

training course, who typically hold a restricted or full mo-torbike licence and who have been riding many years, or for those retuning to riding after a break of a number of years. Visit www.ridetolive.co.nz for more information.

Warriors the latest big name coming to townThe Warriors are the latest big sporting team to hint at playing a match in Nelson and mayor Aldo Miccio says they won't be the last.Last week the Nelson mayor met with New Zealand Warriors management in Auckland and all but confirmed a deal to have the NRL rugby league team to play a pre-season game on Trafalgar Park in ear-ly 2015. It comes weeks after the Cricket World Cup was confirmed to come to Nel-son and that the Blackcaps would also play on Saxton Oval this summer.Aldo says he's also in talks with the Cru-saders to come back to Nelson in 2016 and every year after that and has another big announcement about more international sport coming to Nelson in the coming weeks."For the past 20 years Nelson has been punching below its weight in terms of get-ting sport here. Now we're starting to get

where we should be again."He says having the Tasman Makos, Nelson Falcons, the Blackcaps, the Warriors and the Crusaders coming to play regularly in

Nelson was important for the city. "It gives our youngsters role models to look up to and is also good for the heart of the city, for it to be a vibrant, exciting place to live."

Aldo says the Warriors are keen to explore the possibility of hosting a week-long camp in the region to coincide with the pre-season fixture and that the match will be well supported."We'll sell out Trafalgar Park. Rugby league has a big following in Nelson and it doesn't matter what sport people play whether its hockey, football or rugby, most sports peo-ple also enjoy following league."The Warriors also have an obvious link with the city as its captain Simon Manner-ing is from Nelson.Aldo says the Warriors have been a team he has been keen to bring to Nelson but it was from a meeting brokered by Duco Events promoter and former Kiwi rugby league player Dean Lonergan that got the deal over the line. He says the paperwork still needs to be sorted but both parties are confident of its success. The deal involves no funding from Nelson City Council.

Twenty-two teams take part in the Fun Football competition – ten in 7th grade and 12 in 8th grade – which is held at Saxton Oval each Saturday. Teams get to play two games each weekend, with a dozen fields scattered across the oval. The teams involved in the competition are from Mapua, Wake-field, Richmond and Nelson Suburbs.

The Tasman Titans have made the per-fect start to its rugby league South Is-land championship defense, cruising past the West Coast Chargers 40-12 in Tahunanui on Saturday.The South Island series pits the Titans against Otago Whalers, Southland Rams, West Coast and Canterbury, with the top two teams squaring off in a straight final on September 28. Last year the final was won by Tasman at Trafalgar Park.Coach Phil Bergman was very happy with his side’s dominant display, run-ning nine tries in the rout, including three to star centre Callum Smith. “We were probably expected to win, they’re not as big as some of the other teams in the competition,” says Phil. “I think we were just too good for them on Saturday.”Maloni Lama and Pene Webber both bagged two tries each while Kaiapa Paul and Jason Sekai also dotted down.With a bunch of new faces in the squad this year, Phil was still confident he has the side to win back the championship, hinting that it is probably Tasman’s strongest ever line up. “I think our backline is absolutely stun-ning and brimming with talent. We’ve got considerable depth in nearly every position and our forwards are great,

they’re all powerful runners and solid defenders. I think where our advantage lies is certainly our backs though,” he says.Tasman has the bye this weekend before takeing on Canterbury in Christchurch the following week, and Phil admits it is a frustrating time to be handed a week

off, especially after a friendly against a Wellington side was unable to be given the green light. In Saturday’s other matches played in Tahunanui, the Tasman Titans 17s beat West Coast Chargers 17s 28-26 and the Wanderers Women’s Wolves beat Ash-burton 22-14.

MORLEY MOTORCYCLE & MARINE

Motorbikes - Outboards - Power Equipment

HUGE range of 2nd hand ATV stock in store now

The 2013/14 Dawnbreakers Fishing Club season gets ready to kick off on October 1. Some big changes to the club over the last two years has seen member-ship steadily growing and it looks like it’s not going to slow down for the next 12 months. A change in venue for the Tasman Bay Cruising Club will see our once a month club day Sunday afternoon socials, in the heart of the Nelson Marina. The club season extends eight months from October through to May, with prizegiving in June. Boat fishers, kayakers, jetskiers, land based anglers, divers and fresh water fisher folk are all welcome with senior men, ladies and jun-ior sections to enter. While there is a certain amount of competition between members within the club, you are more than welcome to join us, just for the social side of the club.We hope to encourage more fami-lies into the club by having our club day starting time at 3pm and going until 5pm. There will be a sausage sizzle, raffle and our usual fish of the month awards along with a "bugger" award. The club has had some excellent speakers in previous seasons and social events that gave talks on things like boating educa-tion, MFish (now MPI), commer-cial fishing, the rescue helicopter as well as club members giving in-formative talks on different fishing techniques, what gear to use and how to set it up. These proved to be very popular and will continue for this season.The other big change for the club is a shift from weight per kg for club points to length based. This is in line with the club's efforts to promote catch and release fishing as well as only taking enough for a feed. It has always been a concern of the club having its members tak-ing breeding size snapper so they can weigh them in for club points

when many of the members said they would have preferred to re-lease them. We took this on board and have changed to a length based system where a member can catch a 9kg snapper, take a picture of it on an official measure board then re-lease the fish.Photos would then be emailed into the weigh master and a point per centimetre system will decide who has the biggest fish and most points. The club calendar last year included trips away to Okiwi Bay, French Pass and Havelock and will be re-peated again this year all going well with the weather. Last season also used local charter boat opera-tor Seabird charters for those club members that don’t have boats big enough to get up to D’urville Island so they can have a taste of some of the hot action the area offers. We have found Barry and Lynley Bird excellent operators that have given our club members some great fish-ing experiences. This season we will also be having some club outings targeting areas closer to home like Rabbit Island, Abel Tasman and Cable Bay, for those in smaller boats wanting to learn the ropes with other mem-bers.Also another benefit of belonging to a club is that some weekends guys go out and find a certain bait or area is working better than others and as a club we can share that informa-tion to members, so everyone ben-efits. But you need to be a member and on our email list to get this up to date information.• The club will be holding an Open Day on September 8 at the Tasman Bay Cruising Club starting at 3pm. The DBFC invites all existing mem-bers and anyone interested to come along and join the club on open day.

The slate has been wiped clean as the finalists have been found for the 2013 Premier Final. Jacks OPD booked their direct route to Thurs-day’s final by coming through the third round unbeaten. The second placed team Waimea Col-lege and third placed Richmond battled out the semi final on Saturday night.Richmond had been crushed 73-43 by Jacks OPD in a deferred game played last Sunday night. To say Richmond was disappointed in the re-sult would be an under-statement. It was not one of Richmond’s better games however to give Jacks their dues, they did play extremely well. The huge loss provided Rich-mond with some “fire in their bellies” when they met Waimea to decide the second berth for the final.Richmond took the court with intensity from the first whistle and their desire for the coveted fi-nals berth was evident. Richmond played a strong defensive game, with each and every one of the players contribut-ing. Contrary to their usual team rotation pol-icy, Richmond stuck with their starting line up for the entire game. Richmond played with pa-tience and control, and the numerous tips were often converted.While not making excuses, Waimea had had a tough week – they had played a practice game against Nelson Girls, Jacks on Thursday, Marl-borough Girls on Friday (in the Supernet Tour-nament) and then backed up with Saturday’s semi final. They were down by three at the first quarter, but had clawed back to level at the ma-jor break. It was the third period when the game slipped as Richmond’s Lisa Book and Nicky Rampton were on fire they forged out to a nine goal lead. To their credit, Waimea dug deep to finish well and although they won the final quar-ter they were 45-53 in arrears at the final whistle.Waimea had come out on the right side of the

ledger in each of their three games against Rich-mond this season, however it was the semi final that counted the most.Now all eyes are on Jacks OPD and Richmond for Thursday’s final. Jacks would have to be confident in a favourable outcome given the fact of their convincing win less than two weeks ago. But on the other hand, anything can happen in finals netball. Jacks will go into the game as odds on favourites, there-fore all the pressure will be on them. Richmond on the other hand have played some mediocre

netball in the first two rounds.Jacks coach, Robyn Leonard would never say they will be fine, however she concedes her charges have peaked at the right time. They have been building consistently, and knew in advance that they wanted the direct route to the final as they had a number of players unavailable if they had to play a semi. Robyn will select her starting lineup along the lines of who she will think can do the job. She knows she has three accurate shooters in Ani Waitai, Leanne Cook and Chel-sea Brooks, and there are numerous options in the mid court. The defensive end has recently added a formidable defender in Janita Numa. Jacks plan will be a simple one –

stop the ball before it gets to Richmond’s circle. Jacks play a tight defence through court, and any ball won needs to be converted.The key to Richmond’s performance will be that of Nicky Rampton at goal attack. Nicky has been supplied an abundance of stress free ball from Hilary Jones and Lisa Book, while goal shoot Kathleen Thornalley has put in sound perfor-mances of late. While Lisa has been the go-to-girl at wing attack for the majority of the season, I would like to see her don the WD bib. Lisa can pick up a tremendous amount of ball around the defensive circle edge and gain valuable ball through court. Belinda Koloamatangi is a more than able wing attack, and being the third shoot-er she knows how to deliver good ball.Here’s hoping for a spectacular finale to the 2013 season – game begins at 7pm at the Alison McAlpine Health & Fitness Centre.

The kings of the court, Solly’s Nel-son Pine are off to Auckland to re-gain the national volleyball club championship it won in a thrilling five setter in Nelson last year.With the bulk of the squad return-ing for another season, including three New Zealand players – one being 2012 tournament MVP Pat-rick Shone – and being coached by Nelson’s coach of the year Colin Redpath, there is an air of confi-dence in the Nelson Pine camp that title number two could be claimed in Auckland this weekend.But where exactly that Nelson Pine camp has been based during the competition build-up is one of the unique scenarios faced by the South Island’s top team. With ten of the 12 players calling themselves Nel-sonians, it’d be easy to overlook the fact that most of them are situated in different corners of the country, including four based in Wellington. But the lure of the blue jersey and the goal of a second championship have been strong enough for them to return for another season. “The logistics are always a challenge but we develop all these fantastic players and in the past others have benefited from that. Now that we’ve managed to fundraise some money and get some good local support we can put a Nelson team together with the best of the best,” says coach Colin. “It’s a juggling act but it works and having Patrick who is the best setter in New Zealand and Ben Glue who has just returned from playing profession-ally in Jordan means we have a core

group of players to play around.”But one player that won’t be in Auckland is Charlie Stewart who was named top passer at the tourna-ment last year but has since taken up a professional contract in Europe. If Nelson Pine go on to taste victory he will be able to personally congratu-late three of the players shortly after, however, with Patrick, Ben and Jack Redpath all being selected alongside him in the New Zealand squad that will contest world cup qualifying in Japan a week after the tournament.Another thing Nelson won’t have this year is a vocal home crowd, with a packed Trafalgar Centre au-dience watching in awe as the Pines clawed back to win last year. “Go-ing to Auckland is certainly going to be a challenge. We’re on their turf and they don’t like the idea of a team from the South Island com-ing up and beating them. So we’ll be marked but we’ve got a strong squad so we’ll see how we go.”Molten Nelson Women will be com-peting in the women’s division while the Nelson Pine Saplings will com-pete in the second division having narrowly missed out on the top 12.

Having fallen short during the business end of the season, an AMI Nelson Suburbs side with nothing but pride and second place to play for managed to bang in five goals in its last Main-land Premier League football match, routing Nomads 5-1.Having led by just the single goal at half time, Suburbs looked clinical in the second spell with forwards Ryan Stewart, Gagame Feni, Ben Wright and Jerry Donga finding plenty of holes in the weak Nomads defence. Ryan, Gagame (2) and Ben all scored goals in the game with substi-tute Neil Connell also nabbing one on Suburbs club day.The victory and the margin mean Suburbs should finish second place, behind winners Cashmere Technical and ahead of last year’s champions Ferrymead Bays. And mathematically, while Suburbs could finish as low as third place if Fer-rymead win by six goals this weekend, player-coach Ben Wright says this season has still been an improvement on last year and believed it was

important to finish on a high note. “Absolutely. More than anything in our last game of the sea-son we just wanted to put in a good performance and get a few goals, which is what we did,” says Ben. “But overall hopefully we’ll finish second and that’s an improvement, which means we’re going in the right direction.”With a number of new or returning players blooded into the Suburbs squad, Ben praised the defensive line of Mark Johnston, Johnny Gough, Davi Maciel Gonzalez and Sean Parkes – with the latter three all making the grade after a suc-cessful spell in division one with FC Nelson last year. But as has been the case all throughout the years, settling on a consistent squad during the course of multiple seasons can be difficult with younger players moving out of the region to pursue em-ployment, further education or travel, and that’s “just the reality of amateur football”, according to Ben, who was hopeful of pushing for the pre-miership next year.

Page 16-17Teens work for smokes

The rising cost of cigarettes won’t deter a group of Nelson students despite many of them working part time jobs to pay for their habit.Nelson Weekly spoke with a

group of teenage smokers who are either at high school or re-cently finished. All were girls and all started when they were still too young to buy tobacco. Most still are too young.They say they “don’t know”

why they smoke but buy their tobacco at Nelson retailers who notoriously don’t ask for ID and if they don’t have enough money to buy a whole pack-et, will go halves with their friends, because they simply can’t go without their daily in-take of nicotine. Some even go to the effort of brushing their teeth to cover any lingering smell on their breath before visiting boyfriends who don’t know about their habit.

One Nelson College for Girls student tampered with her ID to make her age appear over 18 and others get parents, friends or older siblings to buy it or simply visit shops that don’t ask for ID.An announcement by the gov-ernment in last week’s budget that the price of cigarettes is set to rise by ten per cent every year for the next four didn’t even deter them. “I’ll keep smoking, I can’t stop,” says high school student Hannah Flem-ming, 17. The girls paid for their tobacco

by working part time jobs out-side of school time with a cou-ple working full time.Most said their parents were

against their smoking “but couldn’t do anything”. Others admitted smoking at interval and lunchtime while at school and even smoking in their car so they wouldn’t get caught by

Sirens try to smash derby foesThere were thrills and spills as some of the South Island’s feistiest women took to the track in front of a full house for the first ever tri-ple header hosted in Nelson. Though the Sirens fought a good

battle, it was the Dunedin Derby Gallow Lasses that took out the trophy in frong of 2000 people. “It was a little bit disappointing that we didn’t win for our home crowd, but we’re still new,” says Siren Tara

Forde. The three teams that took part would like to see the event become an annual competition. “We’re just really thrilled that it all went so well and the support we got,” says Tara.

Suter upgrade questionedThe idea of building a brand new art gal-lery instead of trying to “make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear” at the Suter has been floated this week.Nelson City Councillor Paul Matheson says it is worthwhile investigating whether the $6.9 million council is proposing to

spend on upgrading the Suter could be better spent building a brand new facility at Rutherford Park. Discussion opens this week on the long term plan and Paul says he will be asking the Suter if that option has been explored as he thinks it will make much better use of the money. “We spent $3million on the cricket pavilion at Saxton Field and that is

fantastic. What could we do with $6mil-lion at Rutherford Park for an art gal-lery? Sometimes we just need to step out-side that comfort zone that we have built around a project and have a look outside the square.”But Craig Potton, the chair of the trust board that runs the Suter Art Gallery, says the Suter’s history cannot be ignored and

he believes the cost would be around dou-ble that of the current proposal.“We have a design and a feel for that space that we are happy with and it incorporates the oldest gallery in New Zealand, on our own property. That site of the gallery is the longest running public sited gallery in

The Air Nelson hangar is temporar-ily holding what could be the only flying Avro Anson Mk I bomber in existence.After almost a decade of museum life, it was fully restored by Wakefield man Bill Reid and the 1943 aircraft looks set to be flying as early as next weekend.The project has taken Bill ten years to complete. The length of time had to be stretched as a world-wide search for parts took much longer than expected because of its rarity. Bill, along with his wife Ro-byn, travelled to Australia and England on

Bands set to

battle

Natureland is again in for a fight for sur-

vival after the trust that runs the zoo an-

nounced last week that it was pulling the

plug on managing it.

The Orana Wildlife Trust told Nelson City

Council that it was withdrawing from op-

erating the park because of the impact the

Canterbury earthquakes has had on its

own park.

NCC is now waiting on a staff report be-

fore discussing the future of the zoo at a

meeting next Tuesday, June 26.

Mayor Aldo Miccio says the news is a blow

but he understands the situation facing

Orana.“We appreciate the effort that they’ve put

into Natureland to date and understand

that they’re facing some pretty huge chal-

lenges in Christchurch which have meant

they can’t focus on improving Natureland

as much as they had intended to.”

Orana Wildlife Trust took over the opera-

tion of Natureland in October 2008. It will

operate as usual until a decision on its fu-

ture is made. One possibility is to call for

expressions of interest for another opera-

tor to take over running Natureland.

“We’ll move forward to considering the

options and discuss them next week.

Hopefully we can find a good long term

Volunteer work

‘best job ever’

SPCA volunteers usually receive thanks in the form

of a wagging tail or affectionate purr. This week,

those acknowledging their efforts will be much

more eloquent.

Reina Flavell and Alice Robinson are amongst

more than 150 young Nelsonians nominated for the

Youth Volunteer Awareness Recognition Event to

be held this Thursday as part of Volunteer Aware-

ness Week. The event is run by Volunteer Nelson,

Nelson and Tasman councils and Youth Councils,

and The New Hub. It will be held at the Nelson Col-

lege Hall after the New Hub building, the original

venue, was given a poor rating on the recent earth-

quake assessment, leaving activities suspended.

The night will include prominent guest speakers

and a selection of Nelson youth performances will

provide entertainment. Every nominee will receive

a certificate to signify their nomination and the

contribution they make to society.

“Volunteers are the glue that make our commu-

nities stick together and there are a lot of young,
