‘I’m sorry’says taggerBY KYLE KNOWLES

The man who defaced New Brighton’s war memorial is pleading with other taggers to leave it alone.

The South Brighton man, was 16 when he spray-painted the cenotaph in De-cember 2012, which had to be covered up for the 100th anniversary of Anzac Day last month.

Last weekend, the war memorial was tagged again, angering New Brighton residents who have had a gutsful of van-dals.

The man came forward to police re-cently to confess to his graffiti in 2012, as the 100th anniversary of Anzac Day loomed.

It will take years for his tagging to be removed because of the soft nature of the cenotaph’s stone. The cenotaph was covered for the 100th anniversary com-memoration.

On Thursday the tagger spoke exclu-sively to the Pegasus Post about why he did it, and why he wants other vandals to leave the cenotaph alone.

He also apologised in person to the New Brighton Returned Services Asso-ciation on Thursday.

The RSA accepted the apology.Restorative measures have been

agreed on by the RSA, and the man, over his tagging.

▌▌READERS’ LETTERSPegasus Post readers respond to the state of footpaths in east Christchurch.

• Pam Wallace – In Parklands, the footpaths at the top half of Donnington St and Aberfoyle Pl, which runs off it are appall-ing. There is a complex for the elderly on Aberfoyle Pl, but God only knows how the resi-dents are expected to negotiate the street to get to the shops. One of my neighbours when inquiring of the city council if anything was going to be done about the street, was told “no”.

• Darryl Yaxley – I live in Burwood and I walk my dog every day. There are holes in the footpath in Chartwell St, that are not cracks or potholes that have formed by themselves, they have been left by contrac-

tors who have cut them with concrete saws and left two-three inches from the surface. I don’t think the city council should be responsible for these, as the contractors that did should be made to finish their jobs . . . they just make a mess and walk

away. They need to be made accountable.

• Isobelle Doig – I have a walk-ing trolley and I have got to get down to the doctor and chem-ist, and the footpath is badly broken and they are hazard-ous. I think that all Bower Ave is stuffed between Sandy Ave and Travis Rd. I have recently told the city council this and they got back to me saying they wouldn’t be looking at Bower Ave, until the end of 2016. They said I could perhaps walk on the other side of the road which is not as bad, but my chemist and doctors are on the other side. I would be happy to walk down the road with any of the city councillors and show them this. I just feel they should fix them.

Bower Ave from Travis Rd to

New Brighton Rd, the footpaths are a mess. Both sides of the road have loose gravel, humps an so on. It has been like this since the quakes, complaints to the city council get the reply: No money available currently to do repairs. At least some temporary work to smooth the surface could be done, this road was originally earmarked (be-fore the earthquakes) for major road /footpath improvements to start in 2012 ,but obviously this money has been allocated elsewhere and the plans have been shelved.

By Kyle Knowles

NEW BRIGHTON residents want a community patrol to focus specifically on their area to stop crime.

Susan Bragg is leading that charge to get an area-specific community patrol set up to help prevent crime from North New Brighton to Southshore, between the coast and the river.

At the moment, the Burwood-Pegasus Community Patrol is spread across the eastern suburbs.

Ms Bragg said there was no support from the Canterbury rep-resentative of Community Patrols New Zealand who said a patrol is not needed for that specific area.

She said this did not deter her and as long as they get the green light from New Brighton police they would look to start the patrol.

She is currently setting up a meeting with police to discuss whether they were willing to sup-port their plans.

Discussions have also taken place with the current patrol which covers the New Brighton area, the Burwood-Pegasus Com-munity Patrol.

“We would like the current CPNZ patrols to understand that two heads are better than one – that we do not want to step on anyone’s toes, we just wish to pro-tect and monitor our own domain more closely.”

This comes after New Brighton was hit by a number of incidents last week including the cenotaph and library being tagged and a

waka ama club suffering thousands of dollars damage to equipment.

One man has had enough of it and installed a $20,000 security camera which will catch anyone going near the cenotaph.

Glen Taylor of ATF Services put the solar-powered camera on an empty site opposite the cenotaph which can detect movement near the memorial and will instantly start recording and send an alert to his phone.

The cenotaph was tagged with bright red paint which adds to pre-vious vandalism in 2012.

The New Brighton Library was also hit with the front doors being tagged along with walkways sur-rounding the library.

The New Brighton Waka Ama Club had someone break into their

compound and destroy property.Some of the equipment was

tagged, in blue paint not red like the library, and thrown into the Avon River.

One of the club’s captains, Hai-mona Hale said the damage would be a couple thousand dollars.

“The whole east side is damaged and people go over there and they say we might as well damage it some more.”

Sergeant Dave Robertson said it was disappointing “mindless idi-ots” had vandalised such a special piece of the community.

He said police were investigating the vandalism and were hoping to identify who the offender was.

“We are in discussion with the city council about lighting. It’s a crime prevention strategy and we

will look at use of surveillance in that area. It just makes sense be-cause young people congregate there and we want the ability to monitor the area.”

The city council has since re-moved the graffiti from the library and has filed a report with police.

City council unit manager parks, ,Andrew Rutledge said this was the third time in the last year the library had been tagged and secu-rity cameras were unable to catch the taggers.

•If you would like to know more about the proposed new community patrol or would like to register your interest email Susan Bragg on [email protected].

▌▌ IN BRIEFGayhurst Rd decisionAll improvements proposed for the approaches to the Gayhurst Rd bridge have been approved by the Burwood-Pegasus Community Board. The proposal features stag-gering the intersection of Glouces-ter St and Avonside Drive, install-ing stop controls on the east and west approaches of Avonside Drive to Gloucester St and narrowing of the Gayhurst Rd approach to the new bridge.

One-way extendedThe temporary one-way system on Breezes Rd has been extended as far as the roundabout at Dyers Rd. Motorists heading towards Aranui will need to take Anzac Drive. This new one-way layout will last up to four weeks and there are restric-tions at the Cuthberts Rd/Breezes Rd intersection which means no turning into Cuthberts Rd from Breezes Rd. Meanwhile, St Heliers Cres between Guernsey St and Woodlands Place, Aranui will be closed from today for about two weeks. Due to earthquake dam-age to the wastewater network in the Aranui area, a vacuum system is being installed. This is to replace the damaged gravity wastewater system. There will be no right turn from Guernsey St into St Heliers Cres once work is under way.

Pink Ribbon breakfastSt Ambrose Church in Breezes Rd, Wainoni, will hold a Pink Ribbon breakfast on Saturday fundraising for the New Zealand Breast Can-cer Foundation. It will run between 8.30am and 10.30am. It will cost $10. The event organisers are hop-ing to raise at least $750.

Polyphony: Storytelling through art

Hi Amanda, you have a project running this week for Youth Week?

Yes, it is called Polyphony. Last year we did the same project and we hope it will be a continual thing that will happen every year. It happens during Youth Week and the idea of polyphony is to get young people to tell a story with art. Last year we used photogra-phy but people didn’t understand the photography and people were good at all different art, includ-ing drawing and painting, so this year we have expanded it to all art and that is being exhibited at the Papanui Library.

There is a theme to the art too?Yes, last year it was the rebuild

and the young people came up with great ideas. This year it is ‘we are the future’, so quite a broad topic. The youth groups have explored all the things they want for the future. They haven’t looked too far into the future, and have focused on what can they change now for the people who will be in their shoes in 15-16 years’ time. Polyphony is all about getting ideas across in a positive way. We even had an American expert

come out to show us not photog-raphy but how to tell a story in art.

How has the lead-up gone to the exhibition?

Really well actually, during the school holidays we had a three-day workshop and had a group which had a chance to go on the work-shop, with the intention to de-liver that workshop back to youth groups, which was awesome. We were also able to get a film-maker in to teach all the technical stuff as well as getting an artist in to teach them how to draw. We found last year that some people couldn’t do the photography but could draw really well, so this year we expanded it and put them in the exhibit .

And where is it going to be displayed in the library?

It’s actually going to be on the side of the library’s windows. It’s a sticky thing that goes over the win-

dow and lets people see it from the outside, but people can still see out so when people drive past, they will see the awesome pictures that are up in the window. It’s great because Papanui High is just across the road and it’s about young people, so when they’re going past they can see it which is great.

Is this going to become an annual event?

That’s the plan. We’re hoping we get it rolling and then get

all the youth groups in the city rolling with it in their own groups, and we can do the printing. At the moment it is mainly just in our area. Just with the funding available we are able to do within the northwest area. It would be awesome if people in other communities would see it and run it. Last year we had it at CPIT, which was an awesome place to have it with so much traffic driving past.

How many pieces of art have you got going up?

Not really sure until we get them all. We have quite a fair bit though.

Away from this project, what is your role with Te Ora Hou?

I am the girls’ club co-ordinator. Clubs have been my main focus ever since I started here. They always hire a female to head it.

How long have you been there?About a year and a half maybe

two years, it has gone really fast.

Youth Week is here and one of the projects being run in the city is an art exhibition at the Papanui Library, showcasing some of the city’s best youth art. Reporter Kyle Knowles spoke to Te Ora Hou, Otautahi youth worker and one of the co-ordinators of the event, Amanda Smith, about the project.

Tuesday 26 May 2015 from 5.00pm – 7.00pm

•From page 1Speaking on the condition of anonym-

ity, the man told Pegasus Post: “I don’t think it’s worth anybody’s time to start tagging. You can’t make money off of it, it’s a waste of time and you get in trouble. At the end of the day you just mess people round and mess other people’s stuff up.

He also has a message for the taggers who vandalised the cenotaph further last weekend.

“It’d be a lot better to hand yourself in be-fore they come looking for you all for four or five letters with some coloured spray paint, it’s ridiculous the amount of trouble you can get in.”

The man said he saw the memorial would have to be covered for the Anzac Day com-memorations this year and decided he would turn himself into the police.

At the time he was out of school and hanging around with guys who lead him down a path of tagging, stealing and dam-aging property.

“When I was younger, I was easily lead and started hanging out with a group of mates and they had been doing it for quite a while. I never did it but got to the stage where I started and once I started I’m that guy that goes hard or goes home. I was a bit bored as a teenager and without really thinking headed out. I just thought it was

an object”.He said the apology in front of the RSA

committee members was not an easy thing to do.

“It’s not a pleasant thing, I’ve stolen, tagged and dismantled and it was the first time I’ve ever faced a victim and it was a daunting last couple of days. It was pretty hard knowing it was coming up.

“Once I’d been in there and fronted them it felt so much better. If I didn’t come for-ward and I got caught, there would have been serious repercussions and for the fel-las who tagged down there (last week) there will be serious repercussions.

“I hope this other young fella comes for-ward because it’ll be the best for everyone.”

RSA president Bill Lochrie said the mem-bers accepted the apology.

“We thought he had a lot of courage com-ing forward. He was genuinely remorseful and sorry and we thought that was punish-ment enough and he has redeemed himself.”

for Youth WeekWhat is your favourite part of the job?Probably doing these community-based

projects, not only the polyphony ones we have done the last two years. It is nice to work with other youth events and other groups in the area too. I like being a part of events we hold in particular because when we put on events, young people don’t have to come to our youth group but have an interest in our events.

Are you from Christchurch?No. I’m originally from down south. I

grew up in the Catlans area then moved to Balclutha and I didn’t move to Christ-church until I was 19. I am now 27. Why did you move up here?

My parents moved up here and my brother moved up with his partner and when they moved, I didn’t want to be away from my family.

What did you do when you moved up here?

I had a gap year. Then I went to university and studied Maori and indigenous studies at Canterbury University. During that time, I volunteered in east Christchurch for two years and after study, picked up a job at the Agape Trust in Aranui.

What did the work at Agape involve?They do pretty much the same stuff as

Te Ora Hou but on a smaller scale but they operate more on the east side.

How did you get into the job?I had a really good friend who was work-

ing there at the time and she encouraged me to apply for a job there. I was a big part of Agape and that’s what excited me, with the chance of doing something different with a lot of resources and do other things was exciting. Agape was still an amazing place to work at though. My friend asked me about it three times before I applied it and then I got the job.

Where do you see yourself in the future?I don’t think about that much, but I hope

I would still be doing what I am doing now. I just enjoy the moment and can’t imagine doing anything else, I enjoy working with youth, they make me feel young.

What do you like to do away from work?

I love spending time with my family. I get a lot out of spending time with them. I’m a Christian and go to church on the weekends and love being part of that com-munity. I used to love sports too but haven’t been able to do much of that lately.

How come?I’m in the process of being tested for

a muscle issue. A couple of years back I got a really sore back and now we’ve gone through a process of elimination to find out what it is. It has taken a long time but they think I have fibromyalgia, which is basically pain in the muscles almost like arthritis. It’s like when you work out and the muscles go really tight but like that all of the time. So a lot of my time is spent at the physio and getting massages. Hopefully I don’t have it but oh well, life goes on.

What sports were you in to?I loved touch and flag rugby and a big

netball player. Just hasn’t really happened though and at Agape, we did a lot of out-door activity and that was a big part of my daily routine and a lot of the programme was adventure-based learning.

What is your favourite holiday destina-tion?

Usually within New Zealand, any other country I get a little anxious and I love things that are familiar. When you have such a beautiful country why would you go any-where else? I do like Te Anau, my aunt and uncle live down there and Milford Sound is beautiful.

There are plans to make South New Brighton a more inviting place to visit.

The South Brighton Residents’ Association has put forward the plans which it hopes will beautify the area.

The plans include a brass sculp-ture on the Bridge St bridge, a wel-coming sign carved from a mac-rocarpa tree and planting native pohutukawas along Bridge St.

Association president Hugo Kristinsson said: “Currently every-where you look, there is neglect, council housing, properties that are barricaded from the earthquakes, it’s disgraceful and South Brighton was in some dire need of TLC”.

Feedback on the proposal across Facebook pages has been positive and the residents’ association’s sec-retary, Kirsten Carey, made a dep-utation to the Burwood-Pegasus

Community Board at its last meet-ing.

The board was supportive of the proposal, saying that the residents’ association should carry on trying to find funding sponsors for their project.

Board chairwoman Andrea

Cummings said it was great to see a community project being under-taken by the community itself.

“We thought it was fantastic. We are absolutely supportive and it is good the community is taking the imitative and doing something positive in the area.”

Ms Cummings said a timeline on the projects was not tabled but thought the association was pretty well advanced on the plans.

Fulton Hogan has since sent a letter of intent to Mr Kristinsson, stating that they would be willing to help out with planting the po-hutukawas and putting the sculp-ture and welcoming sign up.

The company would also help out with some of the funding, however, this will not be enough to cover the whole project.

The association is waiting on ap-proval from the city council, and a time frame has not yet been an-nounced.

Three groups are joining forces to help green the red zone this coming weekend.

Otakaro Park Scout Group, whose den is in red-zoned Dal-lington, will plant more than 150 native plants, donated by Trees for Canterbury, in the neigh-bouring Halberg Reserve.

“We mow the lawns ourselves, every second week,” Ōtākaro Park Cub Pack leader Su Mc-Cann said.

“As the buildings around us are removed, we’re starting to look further afield at other op-portunities in our own street.

“I’m hoping these areas of native plantings will encourage bird life and insects to the area, providing more learning poten-tial – not least, learning to take

care of the plants in our own backyard.”

Greening the Red Zone chair-woman Ashley Campbell said it was great to see groups such as the Otakaro Park Scouts help-ing nature to regenerate the red zone.

“We’ve already planted in Harold Henry Park, Bexley, and Brooker Reserve, Burwood, and had great community input into those. We even had the New Brighton Volunteer Fire Brigade watering plants for us over the long hot summer.

“Getting young people in-volved in turning the red zone green is fantastic – because they are the ones who will inherit it and reap the benefits in years to come.”

The precious literary works of one of New Zealand’s most celebrated authors are being proudly re-dis-played in their rightful home after some were nearly lost to water damage earlier this year.

Dame Ngaio Marsh’s former long-time home in Cashmere is a category one historic place and is supported by volunteers and funds from the Dame Ngaio Marsh House and Heritage Trust, of which Perpetual Guardian is custodial trustee.

Built in 1904, the home has been preserved as it was when Dame Ngaio lived there and receives regular maintenance. However, is-sues with the property’s stormwa-ter drainage has caused the home’s lower level, which contains Dame Ngaio’s studio, to be flooded twice.

Severe weather and heavy rain last month threatened the pres-ervation of items displayed in the studio, and staff of Perpetual Guardian and Heritage NZ acted quickly to move all contents into safe storage in a vacant room on the second floor.

Lauded as the Queen of Crime, Dame Ngaio Marsh (right) spent her life in Christchurch. Upon her death in 1982, she bequeathed her home to a family member, who sold the property to the NZ Historic Places Trust (now Heritage NZ) in 1992.

Kate Palmer, client manager at Perpetual Guardian’s Christchurch office, says the home’s contents are of inestimable value – monetarily,

historically and culturally – and their loss would be devastating. “I’m so grateful for the support of Heritage NZ, which joined our

emergency task force to move Dame Ngaio’s books and furniture while repair work was carried out.

“The repairs to the stormwater drainage sys-tem have been complet-ed, so we are now able to move the books and fur-niture back to the studio.

Fortunately this beautiful historic home, which has been featured in popular home and garden maga-zines, survived the earthquakes

relatively unscathed. However, further repair work is needed to fix a couple of leaks in the roof, and we are seeking support and dona-tions to ensure we can continue to preserve the building.”

The Dame Ngaio Marsh House and Heritage Trust “runs on a shoestring”, Ms Palmer says. Funds are raised through dona-tions, property tours and the rental of part of the house as a one-bedroom flat. In addition to Perpetual Guardian, which acts as custodial trustee, the trust has eight other trustees and a com-mittee of volunteers whose vision has been to ensure Dame Ngaio’s works are preserved and her home

remains a place for admirers of her work – both locally and from overseas – to visit.

The Dame Ngaio Marsh House and Heritage Trust was established in 1992 to support the preserva-tion and promotion of the home and life of Dame Ngaio Marsh. The home allows visitors to discover the family treasures she collected from around the world and see where her most famous works were composed. Dame Ngaio was most famous for her creation of the character of Inspector Roder-ick Alleyn.

Information about the home and how to support the trust can be found at www.ngaio-marsh.org.nz.

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED: Volunteers and Perpetual Guardian custodial trustee Dr Ian Lochhead shift historical items which belonged to Dame Ngaio Marsh, back into the historic home after they were removed to prevent them being damaged by water leaks. PHOTO: GEOFF SLOAN

Aranui, Wainoni – high-vis all overAranui and Wainoni are the busiest parts of Christchurch for SCIRT this year, because of the more resilient vacuum wastewater network going in place. Thanks to everyone for supporting local businesses and slowing on detours.

• Breezes Road is now one-way from Wainoni Road to Pages Road.

• Crews are working hard to get Pages Road back to two-way past Cowles Stadium to Shortland St in June.

Sparks Road, Hoon HaySparks Road is one-way, west only from Hoon Hay Road/ the BP station towards Maryhill Ave for the next two months. There are two schools on Sparks Road, so watch for children.

Hills Road, EdgewareIf you are heading into town along Hills Road, south of Shirley Road, expect a detour for the next few weeks along Guild, Slater and Dudley Streets.

There are restrictions on turns into Hills Road while it is northbound only past Edgeware Road. Use Barbadoes St or Fitzgerald Ave if you can.

Worcester St, Linwood - Info Session Saturday Drivers will not be able to turn into Worcester St off Linwood Ave, going towards Woodham Road, from Monday, 25 May. An information session on this major pipe replacement is being held Saturday, 23 May, 11 am to 1 pm, Linwood North Primary School library.

Opawa/ Ensors Road roundaboutOpawa Road went one-way, eastbound only from Brougham St towards Ensors Road this week. Citybound drivers were detoured. This work was not well forewarned so thanks to drivers and residents.

There may be more work on Opawa Road in a fortnight with the one-way going the other way.

SCIRT TRAFFIC NEWS

If you were wondering why Pages Road, Aranui, is one-way, this is the reason. The six “arms” or vacuum wastewater pipes are now all lined up in the trench, linking to the new vacuum pumping station, Bexley Reserve. Barry McDonald, City Care project manager, left, and Ash McLaren, City Care driver, check out the progress.

GASSED: Sharlene Dickson races down the left wing to score a try.

FAST: Lucy Jenkins storms down the wing.

SEARCHING: Skye Taylor looks for a gap in the Rangi Ruru defence.

IN CONTACT: Siobhan Regan tries to break a tackle.

RUNNING HARD: Islay Fowler goes straight up the middle.

Forward Foundation, a rugby team made up of girls who don’t have a side at their school to play for, got the UC Cup secondary schoolgirls competition under way with a 79-0 win over Rangi Ruru Girls’ School at Hagley Park last week.

Regular exercise and activity are important to the physical and mental health of almost everyone, especially older adults. “Being

physically active creates a long list of bene� ts and allows for people to stay independent as they grow older. However, many people consider themselves too old or too worn out to exercise, that was something they did when they were young,” says Richard

Hopkins of Physiotherapy Associates on Wainoni Road.

Regular exercise and physical activity can reduce the risk of some developing diseases and disabilities that develop as people grow older. In some cases, exercise is an e� ective treatment for many chronic conditions. For example, studies show that people with arthritis, heart disease or diabetes bene� t from regular exercise. Exercise also helps

people with high blood pressure, balance problems or di� culty walking.

One of the great things about physical activity and exercise is that there are so many ways to be active. For example, you can be active in short spurts throughout the day, or you can set aside speci� c times of the day on speci� c days of the week to exercise. Many physical activities, such as brisk walking, gardening or taking the stairs whenever you can,are free or low-cost and do not require special equipment. You could also check out local community walking, tai chi or exercise groups.

Make exercise/activity a priorityBeing active and exercising regularly can

change your life. Start slow and build up your stamina, strength and frequency. � e body’s capacity to adapt and improve with regular exercise diminishes little with age.

Start by assessing yourself and think about your goals over time. Don’t push yourself; keep to a comfortable range of joint motion and e� ort to being slightly pu� ed. Start where you’re comfortable, but

start. It’s all about starting and being your biggest cheerleader at every small step and turn.

Make it a game and keep a record of your daily activities on the calendar or in a diaryso you can track your progress. Reward yourself with a friend or family outing, a movie, a new book or just a little something that motivates you to stay on track and continue your health regime.

Don’t forget your food intake, when and where, how much you consume and the time of day all make a di� erence in your physical and mental health.

Remember to use it or lose it. Enjoy your senior years. See Richard or Wendy at Physiotherapy Associates on Wainoni Rd to help work out an activity programme that suits you best. More than 50 years of experience you can trust. Phone today 389 7196.

Shirleypast & present

The three decades from 1950 to 1980 was the time when most of the residential housing was built in Shirley. During the

immediate post-war years, a large block of state housing, known as the Emmett Block, was developed on the western side of the suburb. Private developers built most of the housing on the eastern side, Paramount Homes being one of the main ones.

Today’s residents have the bene� t of many amenities, including diverse shopping, a golf course, restaurants and several schools.

Dreams came true for rugby fans at Ronald McDonald House South Island, when the entire Crusaders squad paid a visit to the families who are staying at the facility.

The Rae family of Timaru, who are staying at the house while 11-year-old Brayden receives oncology treatment, were thrilled at the oppor-tunity to meet some of their sporting heroes.

“They were all just so kind, friendly and willing to talk to and play with the kids,” says mother Rebecca.

“They showed real concern for our family and they were interested in our journey,” she added.

Thirteen-year-old Lach-lan met his favourites, Sam Whitelock, Dan Carter and Tom Taylor. “I had a really good talk with them,” says Lachlan.

“They’re really nice and wished our family all the best.”

Crusaders and All Black, Sam Whitelock, was just as taken with the experience. “It was a special evening hanging out with these amazing kids and their fami-lies. I was blown away by how brave and inspirational these kids are and just to be able to put a smile on their faces meant everything to us.”

GRASSROOTS SPORT

BY KYLE KNOWLES

It is not every day an interna-tional rugby player runs out for a club side, but New Brighton have a Samoan representative who is lighting up the Hawkins Cup.

Tulolo Tulolo arrived in Christ-church just before the season started in March as a bit of an unknown, but after eight games of the season, he had already scored 14 tries already equalling the highest mark from last season.

When asked about his try scor-ing prowess, Tulolo laughed and said he was not one to enjoy hav-ing his name in the limelight.

“I’m not the kind of person who wants other people to know about those things. Yeah, I score the tries but that’s not that kind of thing I like. I just want to make Brighton win all the games and be a good team.”

He said he has loved the first half of the rugby season in Christchurch and said the colder weather was not a worry because it was actually quite nice playing in cooler conditions.

The 24-year-old has played for Samoa on the world sevens circuit, travelling the globe, playing in some of the world’s most famous rugby grounds, but he said whether he was playing at Twickenham in London, or down at Rawhiti Domain, he was still

just playing rugby.“It’s not that different. I don’t go

looking for the big stage. I play for the team and I don’t have feelings about those things, everything is the same and rugby is rugby.”

He has played sevens for Samoa for three years, a spell which included scoring a try against South Africa in last year’s London sevens.

The wing has a partner and young daughter back in Samoa, but he decided he needed to let go of the honour of playing for his country for now, and try to work his way into the Canterbury ITM Cup squad, in order to try and provide for them.

“I miss my lovely country but I came here for a better life and I have a daughter who I need to have a better future for.”

As well as being in the sevens side, he has also played one full 15-man international for Samoa against Japan in Tokyo last year.

He said that was a privilege to play for his country and would love to play for Samoa again in the future, but for now was looking to progress his career by continuing to play well for New Brighton, and catch the eye of the Canterbury ITM Cup selectors.

Tulolo had links to the club before moving to Christchurch which is why he decided to play for the seasiders.

His cousin is a New Brighton supporter and helped Tulolo moving to Wainoni, where he lives with his sister and play for New Brighton, who he says are a

great bunch of guys.“It’s good playing for New

Brighton, what a good bunch of boys and they all have a good spirit, Brighton for life.”

FOOD

Nothing’s more com-forting on a cold winter’s day than a

bowl of hot soup. There are thin and thick soups—thin to whet the appetite before a main course and thick ones that can be meals in them-selves.

The most famous thin soup in the world must be chicken soup, made by cook-ing chicken in stock or water. Once the chicken is cooked, it may be deboned and the meat returned to the soup or eaten separately. Vegetables, rice or noodles can be added to provide more body.

In the modern kitchen there are two types of thick soup: pureed and cream soups. Both get their thick-ness from starch.

The difference is that pu-reed soups are thickened with starch that comes from the main ingredient, such as po-

tatoes, pumpkin or legumes. Cream soups are made with vegetables without a lot of natural starch, like broccoli, mushrooms or asparagus. For these, you have to add starch, usually flour. Cream soups don’t have to contain cream. They just need to be the con-sistency of cream.

Bisques are a type of well-flavoured creamed soup, typi-cally made with crustaceans such as crayfish or prawns, but also with vegetables, as in tomato bisque. The ingredients are cooked in a broth, then pu-reed, strained and “creamed”. Traditional recipes use bread or rice to thicken bisques.

Chowders and gumbos are thick, distinctly American, soups made with milk or cream and usually a starchy vegetable such as corn or potato.

Gumbos are regional American soups from Loui-siana, thickened either with a very dark roux—a mixture of flour and fat that is cooked to a deep brown colour—okra or file powder made from dried sassafras leaves.

Q A&What’s the best way to cookbeef cheeks?Very slowly. Thiseconomical cut comes fromthe facial cheeks, and needslongmoist cooking to softenconnective tissue. Braisingand casseroling are suitablemethods. First, trim off

excess fat and silver skinthen allow a good threehours of gentle simmering.You can often substitutebeef cheeks for lamb shanksin recipes, noting that theaddition of slightly acidingredients like wine ortomato paste helps thetenderising process. If it’smore convenient, beefcheeks can be cooked aheadand reheated.

How can I stop my frozenyoghurt from going too hard?Take themixture from thefreezer before it has fullyfrozen and give it a vigorousstir once or twice to helpbreak up ice crystals; ateaspoon of gelatine

dissolved in water or fruitjuice can be added to helpstop ice crystals fromforming. Don’t aim to keepthe yoghurt in the freezerfor more than aweek ortwo, and soften in the fridge30minutes before serving.

Themany faces ofwinter soupsN

OTHING’Smorecomforting on a coldwinter’s day than abowl of hot soup. There

are thin and thick soups— thinto whet the appetite before amain course and thick ones thatcan bemeals in themselves.Themost famous thin soup in

the worldmust be chicken soup,made by cooking chicken instock or water. Once the chickenis cooked, it may be deboned and

themeat returned to the soup oreaten separately. Vegetables,rice or noodles can be added toprovidemore body.In themodern kitchen there

are two types of thick soup:pureed and cream soups. Bothget their thickness from starch.The difference is that pureed

soups are thickenedwith starchthat comes from themainingredient, such as potatoes,pumpkin or legumes. Creamsoups aremadewith vegetableswithout a lot of natural starch,like broccoli, mushrooms orasparagus. For these, you haveto add starch, usually flour.

Cream soups don’t have tocontain cream. They just need tobe the consistency of cream.Bisques are a type of well-

flavoured creamed soup,typically madewith crustaceanssuch as crayfish or prawns, butalso with vegetables, as intomato bisque. The ingredientsare cooked in a broth, thenpureed, strained and “creamed”.Traditional recipes use bread orrice to thicken bisques.

Chowders and gumbos arethick, distinctly American, soupsmadewithmilk or cream andusually a starchy vegetable suchas corn or potato.Gumbos are regional

American soups from Louisiana,thickened either with a verydark roux— amixture of flourand fat that is cooked to a deepbrown colour— okra or filepowdermade from driedsassafras leaves.

WHY DO SO MANY DISHES CALLFOR AN ONION COOKED INBUTTER BEFORE THE MAINCOOKING?

For flavour. Some recipessuggest cooking untiltender but not brown,others go on until the

onions are golden orcaramelised. Either way it’sworth it if you enjoy tastyfood. You can cut theamount of fat used bycovering the pot while youronion cooks— the lidcollects moisture thatwould normally evaporate,and by returning this to theonion, it avoids burning.

y FoodHumble spuds get a sweet fix

‘‘Whenharvested, theywerekeptexclusively forthe Incakings.

WHOwould havethought that thehumble spudwasonce regarded asboth a food and a

fashion accessory fit for royalty?Native to South America,

potatoes were first cultivated bythe Incas about 200BC. The jewelin the crownwas the Peruvianpurple potato— royally purpleinside and out.When harvested,theywere kept exclusively forthe Inca kings.And in 18th-century France,

Marie Antoinette made aWorldofWearable Art-type fashionstatement by parading aroundthe countryside wearing potatoblossoms on her expensivedresses.Whenmost of us think of

packet ‘‘chips’’ we tend to thinkof fatty, salty occasional treats.But I was recently pleasantly

surprised to discover amoreishrange of proper chips— 100 percent natural, gluten-free, GMO-free and hand-cooked in high-oleic sunflower oil. Ned andMina Smith, the expatriateAmerican couple who run thefamily-style Proper Crispsoperation in Nelson, brandedtheir delights ‘‘crisps’’ todistinguish them frommass-produced ‘‘chips’’. And they are

different. I just love themcrushed and sprinkled overicecream. The rapport between

the salty tang of the chips andthe sweetness of the icecream isa taste treat.The potato is certainly

common and a staple worldwide.They are cheap, hardy and easyto grow, and are high in starch,protein and vitamins. They arealso versatile.We all love thetraditional potato favourites butthis week I’m serving upsomething funky— potatoeswith icecream, in chocolatetruffles, with squid and in agluten-free pastry.

Tomake the toffee, placesugar and water in a large,microwave-proof glass bowl.Microwave on high for 2minutes.

Stir to dissolve sugar.Continuemicrowaving for 3-4minutes until liquid is lightgolden. Remove— the toffeewill continue to colour onstanding.

About to head overseas, Delaney Davidson plays a free cabaret style concert at Gustav’s on Friday night. For this show Delaney says he will perform an evening of music tailored for the connoisseur. Slow Country Ballads, Waltzes, Epic Soundtrack Landscapes and his unique takes on several well known classics.“Expect memories and hypnosis, trance and the comfort of the familiar. The soothing ache of the Blues and the syrupy twang of the Country.”Seasonal as a migrating duck, Delaney is returning abroad to play a European circuit.

DELANEY DAVIDSONLIVE IN CONCERTGustav's (The Tannery, Garlands Rd, Woolston)Friday 29th May. Music starts 9pm.
