Unique experience on offer at The Plains to watch the show.

Plains Railway chairperson Lorayne Oakley said this is the first time the church has been used for a performance like this.

“I am really looking forward to seeing the show, the church is the perfect venue for it.”

Described by Tonnon as a show loosely based on the rail theme, he said the show is 80 per cent live music, which has nothing to do with railways, however there will be old NZR railway posters on display and some of the songs

Ashburton Trust Event Centre and The Plains Railway and Historical Museum have teamed up to offer a unique show on Thursday night.

Songwriter, musician and performer, Anthonie Tonnon is bringing his Rail Land – Arts on Tour show to town for one night.

The night gets under way at 6.30pm with a rail car ride and then back to the Waterton Church

have a rail theme.

“First and foremost, it is an eccentric and fun live music show, with synthesizers, lights, humour, and an attention to show-craft,” Tonnon said.

Lyrically Tonnon likened his style to that of folk music.

“It could be called electronic folk or future folk.”

Those attending are invited to journey through a charming space where story, song and Tonnon’s beautiful voice combine.

Ashburton Trust Event Centre

manager Roger Farr said they are pleased to be working with the Plains Museum to try something different.

“The Plains Railway and Historical Museum is such a great space and we are lucky to have it in town,” Farr said.

Farr went on to say they are looking forward to holding other joint shows down the track.

Tickets cost $29.00 per person and are available online at www. ateventcentre.co.nz or call in to the event centre.

Smallest schools get smaller

By Jonathan Leask jonathan.l@theguardian.co.nz

The two smallest schools in the district have become even smaller in 2020, according to the Ministry of Education’s (MOE) official roll data.

Roll numbers are provided to the MOE as at July 31 each year to provide an official count, however, rolls across the district’s schools fluctuate throughout the year.

The total school roll for the district at July 31 increased by 1.3 per cent in 2020, with an even split between schools increasing and decreasing, but the two smallest schools had the biggest percentage drop in roll numbers.

Our Lady of the Snows (OLS) in Methven had the biggest percentage roll drop of 25.9 per cent but it was only from 34 to 27.

OLS has since increased to a

current roll of 36.

In the last 10 years, it reached a peak of 68 students in 2013, but the following year dropped to 45 and has steadily declined since.

The district’s smallest school, Chertsey School, was down 11.5 per cent but that only equates to three pupils, with a roll of 26 compared to 29 last year.

Chertsey Board of Trustees chair Fiona McFall said the school was now at 28.

“Things at Chertsey School are pretty great,” McFall said.

“The ministry’s figures are from July to July and it’s once a year, but a lot can happen in that time.

“It is just the ebbs and flows of families moving in and out of the area.”

Since 2000, Chertsey’s roll has fluctuated widely from a 10 year high of 41 in 2010 to a low of 22 in 2013.

Ashburton Borough dropped

8.8 per cent from 382 to a roll of 351, having previously had a roll of 434 in 2018.

“Enrolments come and go over time and certainly over the period of a year,” Ashburton Borough School principal Hilary Boyce said.

“There are no concerns over our current or future roll.

“We are focused on providing the best education for all those who come through our gate, it doesn’t really matter how many that is or is not.

“What is important to us is that students are happy, engaged and learning.”

Wakanui School’s roll of 114 was a 7 per cent drop, down from 122.

Mayfield School had the biggest increase, growing 11 per cent from its 2019 roll of 73 to 82 pupils in 2020 and was still growing.

“We are on 90 now and will be 91 at the end of the year,” May-

field principal Richard Kidd said.

“I expect that our roll in March will be around 85 as we have a few children due to leave at the end of the year.

“We have had quite a few new entrants start in the last year, many that we haven’t expected.

“We also have a very supportive board of trustees who fund an extra teacher to keep class sizes small.”

Ashburton Christian School had an 8.5 per cent increase, from 118 to 129 in July, but Principal Tim Kuipers said that the roll had since grown to 139.

As the school is set to become a fully combined primary and secondary school next year, Kuipers is forecasting a big jump in 2021.

“We look to start next year on 155, partly due to retaining pupils for the high school and partly due to new enrolments,” Kuipers said.

Hampstead School also

jumped 7.7 per cent (29 pupils) to 378.

Hinds School’s roll had dropped from 141 in 2018 to 126 in 2019, but was back up to 133 this year.

Lauriston School had been the big mover in 2019, topping 100 students for the first time, but dipped from 104 back to 99.

Mount Hutt College had an increase of 31 students (6.4%) to a roll of 481 while Ashburton College remained steady at 1181, up 8 students (0.7%).

The student roll in the Ashburton District is 5356 for 2020, increasing from 4760 in 2010 – a 12.5 per cent increase over the decade.

In comparison, Selwyn has grown from 6958 in 2020 to have a 2020 total roll of 10691 (34% increase) while to the south Timaru has made a small increase – 1.2 per cent – to 7787 from the 2010 figure of 7693.

Motor show proves a success

By Heather Mackenzie heather.m@theguardian.co.nz

The Methven Lions pulled off yet another successful event on Saturday, the inaugural Methven Motor Show.

“On a glorious Mid Canterbury day the main arena at the showgrounds was party to around 140 wonderful bits of automotive treasure,” said organiser Mac McElwain.

The idea was put forward by the group as a way of digging out treasures hidden away in sheds and garages around the countryside and giving their owners a chance to show them off.

“If it’s got wheels and is interesting, bring it along and we will put it on display,” said the Methven Lions’ website.

This all-inclusive attitude worked well, as there was everything from a couple of immaculately-restored traction engines to the latest in fast machinery from Germany, and just about everything else in between, McElwain said.

The Humm family, three generations of them, brought along a couple of vintage Fords.

The youngest member of the trio, 12-year-old Robbie, was very proud of the Ford Anglia he and Dad Guyon are restoring together.

“It hadn’t been going for over 40 years, so Dad and I have fixed up the engine to get it going again.”

The pride in Robbie’s voice was evident to all as he talked about the Anglia.

The Humm family were out in force at the Methven Motor Show on Saturday. Robbie (left), his dad Guyon and grandfather Bryan with their vintage Fords.

PHOTO HEATHER MACKENZIE 141120-HM-7208 “Next to us is an Aston Martin, just like James Bond drives, but everybody walks past that and stops to talk to us about their memories of cars like these.”

Next to Robbie’s pride and joy, his grandfather Bryan Humm had a Model A Ford on display.

Humm, being a pretty handy engineer, converted it into a ute, which proved helpful when moving house during the 1973 snow storm in Mt Somers.

Bryan said as the snow was falling he and his little Ford made about 25 trips backwards and

forwards ferrying goods from one house to the other.

“In the end the snow was about halfway up the side of the car, but because of all my driving up and down I kept the road open, well as far as my house anyway.”

The Lions raised over $5000,

less a few expenses, for their efforts which McElwain said will quickly find its way into the Lions Charitable Trust for use in the Methven community.

“A big thanks to everyone who gave their time, and brought their treasures along,” he said.

Assault an all-too familiar theme in court proceedings The following appeared in front of Judge Quentin Hix at the Ashburton District Court on Monday.

Joshua Roger Pike pleaded not guilty to a charge of assault and wilful damage. Police dropped the assault charge against Pike due to insufficient evidence. A cellphone belonging to a complainant which was alleged to have been damaged

by Pike was in the process being repaired.

He was convicted and discharged.

Matthew Jack Stott appeared in relation to assault and resisting police charges. His lawyer recommended community work. Judge Hix sentenced Stott to a total of 80 hours’ community work, 40 for each charge.

Samuel Matthew Hall appeared on an assault charge after an altercation with his former partner. Hall (22) offered to make an emotional harm payment to his former spouse.

There was no victim impact statement moved by the woman. The man told the court that he hated what he did and was continuing counselling. He was discharged without conviction.

A 19-year-old who was granted name suppression appeared on a charge of possession to supply cannabis. The man said it was a “silly thing to do and that he wanted to move forward and away from that sort of thing”.

It is alleged the defendant bought some cannabis which was intended for himself and one other person. He was discharged without conviction.

Kaya Monyaka Leigh Shannon Reuben faced multiple charges including the unlawful theft of a motor vehicle and a credit card. The 31-year-old absconded in a friend’s car in Hamilton earlier this year. She also ran off with an ANZ credit card for a four-day stretch where she spent hundreds of dollars.

Reuben had engaged with He Wakatipu and drug and alcohol rehabilitation programmes.

In brief Garden tour The Methven Care Trust’s House and Garden Tour is happening on Saturday, November 28. Tickets are $30 per person and can be purchased prior to the event from ihub Methven, Bayleys Ashburton (cash only) or email tickets@ methvencaretrust.co.nz, or on the day from ihbu Methven. Six families around the Methven, Highbank and Lyndhurst areas are opening their homes and gardens from 10am to 3.30pm. The lunch stop at one of the homes will have a gourmet barbecue, plant stall, raffles, The Rollin Pedlar icecreams, and The Thirsty Caravan offering alcoholic beverages, so bring some extra cash. Maps will be sent out the week before the event and organisers ask the public to remember to remove their shoes at each house, refrain from taking photos and remember it is a R16 event. The tour will go ahead regardless of the weather.

Shed fires Two controlled burns got out of control and threatened farm sheds on Monday. The Ashburton, Hinds and Willowby volunteer brigades were called to Fords Road at around 2.15pm where a rubbish burn had spread to vegetation and into a three-bay shed. The blaze was brought under control around 4pm with some damage to the shed. Then at around 5.30pm crews were called to a controlled burn that got out of control and threatened a shed near Lowcliffe.

Four new cases The judge said he was encouraged by these moves.

Reuben was sentenced to a total of 120 hours’ community work for all charges.

Mission Talaumi appeared on a charge of breaching his release from prison conditions.

He was convicted and discharged.

Richard Grant Olds faced charges of common assault and wilful damage. The court heard he had been in a relationship with the complainant for two years. His lawyer explained that it was a one-off offence where he lost his cool and hit her during an altercation back in March.

Judge Hix summarised the woman’s victim impact statement in which she suffered a fat lip, a sore shoulder and a broken phone following the incident. It was outlined the woman grew fearful of the man

after previously being in a violent relationship.

Olds told the court that he had let her, her family and his family down and welcomed any anger management course.

Olds was ordered to pay $300 reparations for the phone and $300 emotional reparations.

Matthew John Harrison appeared on charges for assaulting a person in a family relationship and escaping from police custody. The 43-year-old was taken into police custody on October 21, 2019 before managing to break free from incarceration before he was caught 100 metres from the site.

His solicitor said the breakout was due to a “fear of not getting the drugs”. Harrison had only just been released following a five year term of imprisonment. The court heard the Ashburton man had been doing some intensive drug and

alcohol rehabilitation. Harrison was convicted and discharged.

Gordon James Gibson was ordered to pay $500 reparations to his former boss after an incident in April. The 44-year-old Ashburton truck driver faced a charge of common assault after he assaulted the man following a shift on April 7.

Tyler James Winter appeared and pleaded guilty to numerous charges including driving while disqualified, operating a motor vehicle which caused sustained loss of traction.

The 19-year-old, who was representing himself and opted not to engage with a duty solicitor, was also charged with breaches of community work and supervision.

He was disqualified from driving for a further six months and sentenced to six months’ supervision.

There were four new cases of Covid-19 reported in New Zealand yesterday, bringing the total number of active cases to 61. The Ministry of Health said the new cases were detected in recent returnees in managed isolation.

There were no new community cases. The total number of confirmed cases of Covid-19 in New Zealand is now 1649.

The ministry said one previously reported case has now recovered.

Dome replaced The 80 tonne dome of Christchurch’s Edmonds Band Rotunda has been lifted back to its rightful place after it was damaged in the 2011 earthquake.

The rotunda which was built in 1929 as a gift to the city from businessman Thomas Edmonds was badly damaged in the earthquakes and for safety reasons was deconstructed. The dome has been sitting wrapped up on the ground next to the rotunda site beside the Avon River since.

Demo date set for domain aviary

By Sue Newman sue.n@theguardian.co.nz

The aviary in Ashburton Domain is about to have a date with a bulldozer, but that won’t set its inhabitants free.

Over the next four months the aviary birds will be rehomed and by the end of March the aviary will be closed, ending the life of a complex that has been loved by some, but that over the years has also earned the Ashburton District Council ongoing criticism for its ill-kept appearance and condemnation for allowing birds to be kept in captivity.

And when the council’s redevelopment plan for the domain went out for public consultation, the future of the aviary attracted 36 submissions.

While some wanted the aviary upgraded, the majority wanted it removed. No one supported its retention in its current form.

District councillors listened and at Tuesday’s community services committee meeting agreed to close the aviary at the end of March, agreeing council staff would work with the aviary contractor and the SPCA to rehome its birds.

When the aviary is demolished, the area will be cleared and redeveloped to become part of a wildlife garden already planned for that area. Longer term, the redevelopment plan proposes a new, modern walkthrough and immersive aviary, but this is not likely to be estab-

The domain plan has a 30 year time frame. The aviary was established by the Ashburton Rotary Club in 1965 and currently cost $36,000 a year to run and maintain.

Its current inhabitants are two cockatoo, six budgies, eight rainbow lorikeet, 13 cockatiel,

four lovebirds and two peacock/ peahen. The birds have an estimated market value of $9000.

The council had already approached the Timaru District Council about bird relocation and they were happy to rehome the domain birds, chief executive Hamish Riach said.

“Our first option, however, will

be to offer the birds back to the people who donated them, but certainly rehoming them will be no problem,” he said.

In recommending councillors support the aviary’s demolition and the rehoming of its birds, councillor Diane Rawlinson said she was passionate about the project because the council

could do a lot better than retaining the old aviary in its new plans.

Angus McKay said the removal of the aviary was the first step in the redevelopment project and in making the change to the original plan, it showed the council was listening to the community.

Memorial gates restored

The Memorial gates at Ruapuna have been restored to their former glory thanks to the Mayfield and Districts Red Poppy Society and the expertise of Max Cawte and his team. The society, which is responsible for the district’s Anzac services and the upkeep of the local district’s memorials, is grateful to Max and Kathy Cawte of Ashburton Powder Coating for their interest in the restoration and for heavily discounting the work required, society president Jan Early said. “Kathy’s family came from the Ruapuna area, so both she and Max had a keen desire to help the society.” The gates were originally erected in 1921 by the Ruapuna community in honour of those that fought in World War One. The stone entranceway either side of the gates was erected later in honour of those that fought in World War Two. The Mayfield and surrounding districts’ residents who fought in these wars will be remembered next year at the Mayfield Anzac service. Local resident, Reon Blake will speak on his research into those that are remembered on the memorial plaques and boards as well as those that weren’t previously recorded.

It’s official, bird lovers have spoken and the Kakapo is Bird of the Year for 2020.

It was a tight run race though.

The Antipodean Albatross was leading the most number of votes during the two week voting window, but when the preferential votes were applied the flightless Kakapo came out on top for the second time.

“This is the first time any bird has won the Bird of the Year title more than once, so New Zealand’s mighty moss chicken can add yet another feather to its cap,” says Laura Keown, spokesperson for Bird of the Year.

The Kakapo is pretty special as it is the heaviest, longest-living, only flightless, nocturnal parrot on the planet.

It also knows a thing or two about standing its ground and fighting for survival.

“These birds were literally brought back from the brink of extinction. There were only 50 birds in the 1990s and they’ve been saved by intensive conservation efforts. Today there are 213 kakapo,” Keown said.

There were 55,583 votes cast in Bird

of the Year 2020, up from 43,460 in 2019, and the most ever received in the competition’s history.

The little spotted kiwi’s entry took on a slightly sinister note when volunteer scrutineers from Dragonfly Data Science found 1500 votes cast nocturnally from the same IP address, the votes were discounted before lawyers got involved.

REVIEW

Laughter, it really is the best medicine

S

o far 2020 has not exactly been a barrel of laughs, but the Methven Theatre Company are trying to kick things back into gear this week when The Four Musketeers hits the Mt Hutt Memorial Hall stage.

Renowned for producing toe-tapping, hilarious pantomimes in recent years like, Cinderella, Hercules and Calamity Dame – the company has once again struck gold with Pat Wollaston’s script, which takes the audience on a tale of many twists and turns as D’artagnan junior, looks to follow in his father’s footsteps and join the famed Musketeers.

With familiar characters from the original story line, plus the inclusion of a few new names and faces, there’s enough of the old, mixed in with the new to make it feel like you’re learning the tale for the very first time.

Directed ably by Richard Nor-

rish, with support from the experienced Chris Woods, the performance is a typically polished one for the Methven stage, with new talent being unearthed and the return of some well-known and well-versed performers.

Making use of modern songs and putting them into the script to suit the occasion, Norrish has worked his magic with some popular re-versed songs – just perfect for the occasion.

With a small group of performers, Norrish and Woods have cast well – making full use of some experienced names to the stage, while also unleashing some new talent on to the Mid Canterbury performing scene, many for whom, this show hopefully will not be their last.

Denesa Chan makes her Methven debut in the lead role of D’artagnan and is simply excellent from start to finish. Her love affair with Lady Caroline,

played by another debutant in Santana Wicken – will have the audience in fits of laughter as they swoon over each other.

Gavin Templeton, known to many around these parts, takes on a different challenge in this year’s show and is more than up to the task of the evil Cardinal Richelieu, while his right-hand man, the eccentric Rougeforthe is well-displayed by Jack Scott.

Dayle Stoliker, another frequent face in shows around Mid Canterbury, has stepped away from some of his more serious recent roles to fill the spot of the Dame – and does so with aplomb. Just watch out for the frying pan!

The original three musketeers; Aramis (Donna Topp), Athos (Mary Cressey) and Porthos (Matt Markham) also make an appearance, and their tomfoolery adds even more laughs throughout the show as they

bounce off each other across the stage.

The sultry Milady de Winter is perfectly portrayed by Jolene McGuire and Queen Anne is as elegant and commanding as you’d expect courtesy of Linda Young.

On the hilarity levels though, nothing compares to the efforts of innkeeper, Jason Ree and the Cardinal’s two guards, Jenny Thompson and Malcolm Nell – they’ll have your sides aching from laughter during their cameos.

The main roles are well supported by an equally as talented group of chorus members, all of whom are newcomers to the Methven Theatre Company; Penny Nell, Doreen Nell, Jenny Barnaby, Jen Dearborn, Marine Dumte and Fran Stones.

If there’s one real highlight though, it’s the inclusion again of some young faces to the stage.

Methven was once regarded as a breeding ground for future talent and seeing Poppy Mawle (King Louis) stepping into the spotlight as well as performances from Cora Norrish, Kayla Thompson and Charlize Franklin adds a whole extra dimension to an already excellent show.

With a standout cast, an impressive set design, slick lighting and sound and amazing costumes – it’s everything we’ve come to expect from the Methven Theatre Company and more.

The Four Musketeers opens on Thursday, November 19 at the Mt Hutt Memorial Hall and runs through until Saturday, November 21 with tickets available at Topp Café in Methven, or from the Ashburton Trust Event Centre.

If you’re in need of a good night out, with plenty of laughs, then they have you sorted.

Bin confiscations surpass 50 as recycling ‘improves’

By Jonathan Leask jonathan.l@theguardian.co.nz

The Ashburton District Council has confiscated 58 yellow bins out of 11,250 properties.

The council introduced a threestrike rule as part of its recycling monitoring in August, which has seen more than 45,000 audits on the district’s yellow bins.

As of last week 58 properties have had their yellow bins removed for being repeat offenders, and the council is currently monitoring a further 302 properties closely.

Council infrastructure services group manager, Neil McCann, said properties who have had their bin removed can request their bin back after three months.

“To get their bin back they will need to book an appointment

with our waste minimisation educator, who will go through what can and can’t go in the yellow recycling bin.

“Once council are happy the household will recycle properly, the bin can be returned.

“Council will continue to monitor all properties for contamination.”

The changes in recycling – with

only plastics numbered 1, 2, or 5 being accepted – and the sorting facilities increasingly rejecting loads has been the cause for the council to step up and increase efforts to meet the new standards.

The confiscation of yellow bins is aiding the district’s waste reduction by allowing its recycling loads to avoid rejection, incur-

ring additional costs to manage, McCann said.

“Properties that have consistently placed material in their bins over a two month period can cause a truck-load to be rejected.

“Keeping this material out of the bins ensures our recycling is recycled and not added to our landfill.”

The council has the option to use fines, McCann said, but has opted to educate and encourage good recycling practices.

“Council feels removal of the bins for three months – six collection cycles – gives the household time to reflect and learn, and it is a better option than imposing fines.”

McCann said the council’s approach is working and overall the recycling has improved significantly.

“We averaged just 2.45 per cent

of contamination with loads that have been sent to Christchurch throughout October.

“The loads going to Timaru are of a similar quality.

“We are very proud of our district’s efforts.

“Since we started removing bins, we have not had a load rejected when sent to the Christchurch facility, which includes two to three times a week throughout October.

“Staff and the council’s contractor will continue to monitor recycling quality to ensure we don’t creep back toward higher levels of contamination,” McCann said.

In recent weeks among the items that residents have attempted to recycle are nappies, pots and pans, lawn clippings, vacuuming dust, engine and car parts.

Be it at the beach, or down at the local watering hole with your mates, whiling away the hours – or somewhere a little more formal like a local community swimming pool, for most they are only but happy memories.

The community swimming pool is as important as any.

They were the social hub of life growing up for so many of us, but they seemingly face a constant battle for survival each and every year nowadays, which must be tough.

It never used to seem like that. Or were we too busy running when we shouldn’t have been and doing bombs or flips when the lifeguard wasn’t watching that we never really paid attention to how the facilities actually operated.

Sure, things are tougher these days with increased focus on health and safety – but there is also a greater emphasis on learning to swim across the country too, so being able to provide a plethora of pools across our district should be paramount.

Either way, they are a part of the beating heart of any community during the warmer months, and it is absolute imperative that we show our support to them when we can so that future generations are afforded the same opportunities we were.

Many in the Ashburton District run on the smell of an oily rag – blessed to have small groups of dedicated people who are passionate about ensuring these generational gems remain available to their communities.

We’re lucky to have them. And thus, we should really consider it a right of passage that we lend as much support to these groups as we can, be it through fundraisers or the purchasing of seasonal tickets.

Things are most likely only going to get warmer over the coming weeks and months as the festive season approaches – so the need and desire for the swimming pool will only become greater.

If you get the opportunity, then make the most of it. It’s bound to be appreciated.

OPINION 11

‘When you fight and work hard you get what you fight for’

By Jaime Wall - RNZ

Y

ou can’t help but get swept up by the history in Buenos Aires.

When I was there last year I walked across all 16 lanes of the Avienda 9 de Julio, named for the date of the country’s independence from the Spanish Empire.

There are statues everywhere in the colossal capital, honouring the revolutionaries and founding fathers, peering down from their horses and brandishing swords.

When I jumped in a cab and established that I wasn’t English, I got a lesson from the driver different to the one I grew up with about Islas Malvinas – better known to us as the Falkland Islands. The cabbie, in his late 50s and maybe even a veteran of the 1982 conflict, was no outlier.

The Argentines are intense and extremely welcoming people who cling to the stories and legends that built their country.

Except for last Saturday night.

Their national rugby team didn’t give a flying f**k about their history of losing to the All Blacks, until the full-time whistle blew when they realised they’d just closed the book on it.

It came in the unlikely location of Bankwest Stadium in Parramatta.

Despite the healthy amount of New Zealanders residing in Sydney, only 9063 people made the

Argentina made history on Saturday and the 25-15 scoreline flattered the men in black, who were outplayed in every facet of the game. trek to the inner-west, making it probably the smallest test crowd the All Blacks have played in front of in over a century.

Still, this was supposed to be a walkover. They were stinging after the shock loss to the Wallabies last weekend, and the Pumas were lined up to be the sacrificial slaughter victims.

The All Blacks hadn’t lost two tests in a row since 2011, no one remembers that anyway because they won the World Cup only a short while later.

The team was strong, Richie Mo’unga was back at first five and Aaron Smith at halfback. There weren’t going to be any red cards, not again.

Turns out there weren’t even

any yellows. Just a bunch of white flags instead of attacking ideas, and brain fades when it came to the laws.

Nicolás Sánchez had a stunning game, but would normally have no right to line up seven penalty shots at goal. He nailed six and converted his own try, putting him fourth on the list of all time individual scorers against the All Blacks in a test. In a nice bit of symmetry, he now sits a few places above the immortal Hugo Porta, who kicked all 21 points in the Pumas’ draw with the All Blacks in 1985 – before last Saturday night the closest they’d ever come to winning.

While Sánchez and his halfback Tomás Cubelli moved the

team around the park like a couple of field marshals, their skipper Pablo Matera took it into his own hands to make this one of the worst days any All Black who found themselves in a ruck with him ever had. Matera was immense, typified by his brutal intimidation of referee Angus Gardner after an early dust-up, in which he informed the whistleblower: “I can see a guy hitting the face of one of my men. I’m playing for my country. That’s not respect.”

Gardner got the message and let Matera get on with his path of destruction, culminating in a crucial turnover late to ice the result.

The less said about the All Blacks, the better. This would have to rank as one of the most pathetic performances in recent memory and the blame can be equally shared around. Sam Cane didn’t have his usual standout game like when he salvaged something out of the Wellington draw.

Mo’unga and Smith added nothing, Ardie Savea was only notable because he wore a mouthguard for once, and Ian Foster deserves a serious questioning as to why he emptied his bench only to have guys who have barely had an hour of rugby between them in the last month taking the field.

Even back in Wellington at NZ Rugby headquarters, there will be some serious soul-searching

over the All Blacks’ insistence to have the draw changed to suit their holiday plans. They’ve been made to look like fools lately by the Australians in the boardroom, now this tacked-on test match has turned into one of the biggest embarrassments in their history.

The weekend before the murmurs started about Foster’s long term prospects in the role, now they’ve been cranked up to high volume. In the space of 12 hours Scott Robertson went from being essentially anointed as the next Wales coach (given their horrendous run of form of late) to now being lined up as Foster’s imminent replacement.

But this is about Los Pumas, representing a country devastated by Covid.

Matera the conqueror stood not only as a winner on the field, but also the leader of a team that refused to use any excuse for their situation.

It’s incredibly telling that his team has already been away from home for almost six weeks, having to prepare for this moment despite not having any real match practice since March.

His parting words will go down in rugby history: “Everything is hard in Argentina. At the moment it is one of the toughest times in our country. We wanted to show our people when you fight and work hard you get what you fight for.”

Pulling together to beat biosecurity threats

By David Hayes FROM THE FARM

T

he discovery of a new cluster of Mycoplasma bovis in Canterbury is a reminder our battle to eliminate this cattle disease is ongoing.

With cattle on two farms testing positive recently, it means a total of seven farms in the province are infected, with another 146 properties around New Zealand under active surveillance.

On the positive side, the latest infections show our monitoring systems are working. MPI’s Mycoplasma bovis programme director Stuart Anderson has said there is no cause for alarm. The number of cases are still well within what had been forecast.

We’re now two and a half years into the ambitious campaign to eliminate M. bovis from our shores. If we can achieve it, it will be a world first. More than 1.6 million tests have been carried out, and $184.6 million paid in compensation to affected farmers.

For me, the campaign has echoes of our success in the face of another serious threat to a significant primary industry. A decade ago I was working at MPI and the kiwifruit disease PSA was discovered in New Zealand

David Hayes (left) and Stu Hutchings, two veterinarians who brought animal disease management experience to the kiwifruit PSA response, caught up recently at the 10th anniversary of the launch of the campaign to combat the vine disease. orchards.

Earlier this month I was delighted to be at Zespri’s headquarters in Mt Maunganui together with others involved in the PSA response and recovery efforts to mark the 10th anniversary of the launch of our offensive against that scourge.

Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa) is a highly virulent bacterial canker on kiwifruit vines. This bacteria is found in several countries worldwide, including Italy, Chile and Japan,

and was first identified in New Zealand in 2010. While PSA still affects kiwifruit in New Zealand the industry developed new varieties and disease management tools to successfully recover.

PSA showed us how important biosecurity is to agriculture in New Zealand. The introduction of PSA into New Zealand and the devastating effects it had on Hort 16 a – the gold kiwifruit at that time – were catastrophic.

Growers’ livelihoods, their orchards and in many cases their

life savings and investments were threatened.

However, the PSA response also showed how resilient agriculture, and in this case the kiwifruit industry, can be.

At the time, the industry and government agreed within days to invest $20 million each to the response to PSA and KiwiFruit Vine Health (KVH) was established to lead the charge.

Unexpectedly, veterinarians like me found themselves involved in a horticulture disease.

Along with Stu Hutchings, now chief executive of KVH, I was able to bring animal disease management skills to the table.

Barry O’Neil, also a veterinarian, was head of Biosecurity New Zealand at the time and at the anniversary event in Mt Maunganui he recounted the days leading up to government and industry mounting what was ultimately a successful response to this terrible disease.

Farming and agriculture in New Zealand have faced many challenges and crises over the years. Mycoplasma bovis and PSA won’t be the last, but the resilience created through experience and sharing knowledge across sectors can be of tremendous benefits.

Today the variety G3 marketed as Sungold and green kiwifruit are major export earners for New Zealand. Ten years on it is an amazing story of recovery.

With government and industry continuing the current resolve and diligence in the face of M. bovis, I look forward to a future celebration when we can say we also didn’t let that disease beat us.

RURALCO

Turnover impresses again Ashburton-based rural suppliers co-operative Ruralco grew its turnover in the last financial year despite difficult trading conditions.

The co-operative will hold its annual general meeting at the Ashburton Trust Event Centre at 7pm tonight.

In its annual report, Ruralco said it continued to grow its group turnover, recording $241.4 million for the year ended June 30, compared to $238.5m the previous year.

Gross profit remained the same as last year at $11.1m and its EBITDA slightly increased to $1.2m compared to $1.1m last year.

Group equity at the end of the 2020 financial year was $16.7m, up from last year’s $15.7m.

In their annual review, former chairman Alister Body and chief executive Rob Sharkie said Covid-19 restrictions meant Ruralco had to implement intended technological changes quickly, with shareholders able to access farm supplies through its website.

“We created an important digital window which set up new and sustained buying patterns, which are reflected in our financial results and our Instore Days.

“It helped facilitate our desire to push out further than our traditional Mid Canterbury region and to engage nationwide with

more shareholders, members and suppliers.

“Ruralco has performed well in a difficult year and is still sitting in a good position looking forward which means we can pay our shareholders a bonus rebate again this year.”

Ruralco attracted 68 new shareholders over the past 12 months and has more than 3000 card suppliers.

Jessie Chan, who was elected chair in June after Alister Body stepped down, said it was important to recognise that Ruralco was now truly nationwide.

“We are growing organically in a way that suits the needs of everyone. We are broadening our approach outside of Mid Canterbury but in a way that benefits all.

“To do this we have to make sure we stay relevant and true to our values and we must continue adding value wherever can.”

People and relationships were the key to the co-operative moving forward, she said.

“There is a lot of talk about digital transformation, which is important, but it is also about relationships and how we best serve our relationships with our suppliers and members,” Chan said.

Initially known as the Ashburton Trading Society (ATS), Ruralco was set up by a group of farmers in 1963 to get better deals on farm supplies.

Ruralco chair Jessie Chan and chief executive Rob Sharkie say people and relationships are the key to the co-operative moving forward.

ON THE FARM

HEY THERE, DELILAH Gilbert family shines in Canterbury A&P on-farm Show An ayrshire cow named Delilah, shown by the Gilbert family of Mid Canterbury was the star of the Canterbury A&P on-farm competition, despite the breed being in the minority in terms of numbers.

The Gilberts’ success in the competition means they are now preparing to take a team of cows, including Delilah, to the Stratford A&P Show in Taranaki on November 28 and 29, traditionally a big dairy showcase.

More than 90 entries were tabled for the on-farm competition, which replaced the cancelled dairy judging at the Canterbury Show in the wake of Covid-19 restrictions. Instead, the exhibitors prepared their cows on-farm, as they would do for the show.

The judge Corey Ferguson, from Otorohanga, moved between farms placing the animals from November 11 to 13.

The Gilbert family, led by Peter and Anne Gilbert, had reluctantly chosen to stand down from showing at Christchurch over the last two years because of concerns about cattle disease mycoplasma bovis.

They have two dairy farms, at Winchmore and Rakaia, run by their sons Nick and Michael respectively. Another son, Luke, is driving trucks, but also involved in the farming operation.

They run three registered pedigree dairy herds – jersey, holstein friesian and ayrshire – under the Glenalla stud name.

Last week the Gilberts Glenalla jersey stud won junior, intermediate (co-owned with Megan Thomas, of the United Kingdom) and senior champion in the jersey show.

However, the main talking point was the family’s single ayrshire entry who proved you don’t

need many to pack a punch.

Pukekaraka Elle Delilah – who they bought for $2500 in a group of five cows from the Robinson family’s dispersal at Atiamuri in April 2019 – easily walked away with grand champion ayrshire.

However, where the six-yearold really left her mark was when she won supreme senior champion of all breeds and supreme senior best udder of all breeds. She is the first ayrshire to win the supreme senior award since 1981.

Michael Gilbert said he didn’t have Delilah among his first picks when he bought her at the Pukekaraka sale last year. Even though she was dry with no herd test results, he decided she needed to join his 630-cow herd.

She produced more than 8000 litres in 280 days on her first lactation and won the Canterbury and national on-farm for her breed age-group last year.

The Canterbury A&P on-farm was a chance to step her out.

group, but to win the supreme senior champion was a pretty big honour.

“There haven’t been a lot of ayrshires in Canterbury do that well in a long time.

“Since we haven’t been to a

show since 2017, it’s felt like a long time between drinks for us,” Michael Gilbert said.

Delilah is headed back to the North Island next week with her jersey herdmates to compete at the Stratford A&P Show.

The Gilberts haven’t backed

away from the commitment it takes to truck cows between islands, despite having more than 1200 cows over two farms to take care of at home.

“We already had Delilah pencilled in for Stratford before these results,” Gilbert said.

“It’s going to be a massive show, there are some good ayrshires in the North Island, and we wanted to see what she’ll look like alongside them.

“Plus, we haven’t been out for a few years and we’re really ready to get back into it.”

Ayrshires make up 1 per cent of the New Zealand herd.

RURAL OPINION

Finding the balance David Clark

President of MC Federated Farmers

“Farming looks mighty easy when your plow is a pencil and you’re a thousand miles from the corn field.”

Former United States President Dwight D. Eisenhower once made this famous observation.

Many would suggest it is as true today as ever and Wellington is less than 1000 miles away.

Most of us as working farmers are in overalls and boots, working daily at the routine tasks of keeping our businesses financially sustainable and trying to have some form of work/ family balance.

By far the majority of us also recognise that guardianship of the land in a farming business includes a high degree of social licence and responsibility, as does being a producer of food.

But where does the balance lie?

There is an expense heading in my accounts that increases every year, that of compliance.

It seems every year or more so currently every month, a politician or their trusty bureaucrat comes up with something new for us to

comply with.

With ardent loyalty to the cause, a person in hi-vis with a clipboard is sure to make their way to our farm to inspect how we are doing things and proffer advice on how to do it better with the thinly veiled threat of dire trouble if a cross rather than a tick should strike in the box.

The ever-such-a-nice chap from the grains industry came out to inspect our production systems, he left amazed by the technology employed in our machinery and the digital mapping of every activity.

Another chap wishes to inspect our livestock systems from one end to the other, while another wants to know if our fertiliser spreader has a current Spread Mark certification.

The regional council have been good enough to remind us that the five year verification on the water meters has expired, while another is concerned as to whether we have completed a bucket test on the irrigators this season.

Someone else with a clipboard has pointed out that if the agricultural chemical shed does not have a manifest updated daily with all products, quantities and safety data sheet current and held securely away from the building, we are non-compliant.

It is becoming incessant.

Overseer continues to throw out wacky results that gives no one confidence in the out-

comes except the consultant who will gleefully furnish an invoice to ensure our environmental compliance, and an overly enthusiastic bunch of politicians want to turn on the climate change module to model our methane emissions to boot.

Our government, fearless in their leadership of the legions of clipboard carriers now wish to embark on a project known as Whole Farm Plans.

Quite what that will entail is yet to be fully realised.

No doubt they will be influenced by those who know how to do what we do better.

There has to be a balance of course.

We understand the need for compliance, we are on a journey of environment improvement and have been for a number of years.

What I am seeing in my own business, and I’m sure most of you will be seeing the same if your have a critical look, is that thousands, tens of thousands of dollars are being spent year on this tidal wave of compliance.

Compliance has not planted one tree on this farm, has not fenced one waterway, but has satisfied those with the pencils, 1000 miles from the corn field.

What the folk with the pencils need to remember, is that the chap in the field still needs to have the time to actually use the plow.

That is the challenge for them, to find that balance.

OPINION

Quinny gaffe foolish rather than malicious

By Adam Burns adam.b@theguardian.co.nz

K

Locals rule the roost Dan Hopkins (above) successfully led his team to success in the annual Histon Cup at the Hampstead Bowling Club on Sunday. Playing alongside Malcolm Berhns and Manu Otene, the trio went through the day’s play undefeated, winning all four matches in an impressive display as the only side to achieve that feat. The Hampstead trio finished well clear of the pack, beating Pete Winham, Graeme Clarke and Wayne Lloyd who finished the day with three wins, 23 ends and a 22 point differential, just ahead of their Allenton club mates of Graeme Bishop, Jock O’Connor and Bruce Henderson, who registered three wins, 23 ends and a 16-point differential. There is a busy week of bowls ahead around the district with men’s interclub tonight, a half-day triples event at Rakaia tomorrow before the Charene Trophy for the ladies at Allenton Friday and the usual Friday triples at the Ashburton Bowling Club as well.

ASCOT PARK

Team Anderton head south Brian and Shane Anderton will take eight horses south to Ascot Park today, and they believe they can go home with a few cheques.

Five-win gelding Our Teddy Boy will jump from barrier seven in the Waikiwi Tavern & The Foundry Restaurant Handicap (1400m), carrying 57kg with the assistance of apprentice jockey Rahul Beeharry’s three kilo claim.

The son of Onceuponatime has placed in three of his last four starts and his trainers are hoping he can end his preparation on a high.

M8

“He is a wet track horse and we hope we get the sting out of the ground. He is well in himself,” Brian Anderton said. “He is going to go out shortly but he has been doing things right.”

At the start of the day Anderton will line-up in-form mare Phyllite in the Waxy’s Irish Pub Maiden (1200m).

“Phyllite, she is a fast mare,” Anderton said.

“We are hoping she goes as well as she has been. Every race she has had, she has gone well.

“She has got a good barrier draw (5)

and I don’t think the soft ground will worry her too much.”

Stablemate Regal Girl will make her debut in the Lone Star Café & Bar Maiden and Anderton said it will be more of an educational outing for the mare. “She has got a bit to learn but has got a lot of ability,” he said.

Anderton’s other runners on the day include Crispin and Heberite in the Ascot Sports Bar Handicap, Avino in the ILT Centrepoint & Southcity Liquorland Maiden and Step Son in the Northern Sports Bar Maiden.

eith Quinn is a hero, will always a hero to many sporting scribes and broadcasters.

The firestorm of controversy the veteran sports caller created in the aftermath to, what he probably thought at the time, was an innocuous viewpoint on Twitter attests to this.

However it should not make the 74-year-old immune to being challenged.

To recap, earlier this week Quinn raised questions as to what had happened to “bloke-ism”.

It was in light of Dustin Johnson struggling to contain his emotions after he won a maiden green jacket at the Masters, Lewis Hamilton tearing up after his seventh Formula 1 title which equalled Michael Schumacher and Los Pumas’ players and coaching staff brought to tears after knocking over the All Blacks for the very first time.

He capped his tweet off with “harden up blokes of today”.

Which was the most problematic remark.

Firstly, were those men supposed to dismiss those achievements?

Considering emotional response is one of the primary elements which dictate sporting storylines, it was an odd take from someone who made a name for themselves as a sporting storyteller.

Interestingly, none of those sports stars he cited were New Zealanders.

As a nation, we’re already a pretty low-key bunch already it seems.

However it goes without saying that this country’s suicide rate remains notoriously reprehensible.

Those figures will never improve if that stance permeates.

Quinn is a product of his generation and environment, and he would not be the only 70-plus male adopting that same perspective.

But it is an archaic attitude which only suggests insecurities.

From a general point of view, I would query whether sports stars are drastically more emotional in the modern era?

Would people tell Bert Sutcliffe to harden up in 1953 after he cried when Bob Blair joined him at the crease in Johannesburg?

Many of our modern era All Blacks remain gruff and low-key. And that’s fine.

However it would be a pretty mundane world if every sporting competitor was wired the same way.

I’m all for resilience being instilled. She’s a tough old world out there after all.

But repressing your emotions in the sporting amphitheatre?

Sorry Quinny.

In all fairness I think that it was more a naively offhand comment rather than something more malicious.

He later backtracked and finessed his view once the proverbial had hit the fan.

One positive thing that Quinn’s comments indirectly engendered was dialogue.

Even if his call was uncalled for.

CRICKET

Stags’ batting falters

By Adam Burns adam.b@theguardian.co.nz

There was a sense of deja vu for the Technical cricketers as they again let Celtic off the hook.

The Mid Canterbury club fell to a 34 run loss to the Celts at the Ashburton Domain Oval, in what was their second defeat to their Southern counterparts.

And it played out in a similar vein to their opening round clash in Timaru, with the Stags’ bowlers restricting Celtic to a modest total, only for their batting to flounder in response.

Celtic’s bowlers, for the most part, gave nothing away, and their nagging line and length

were able to contain and pressurise the home team into mistakes at the crease.

The visitors won the toss and elected to bat in splendid conditions at the domain.

It was a tentative start for the Celts.

They lost Michael Lees after the opener scratched around for 5 off 23.

A few overs later, Ben Watson was also back in the pavilion after he slapped Harry Jones through the offside only for Matt Pawsey to pull off a screamer at extra cover, one-handed diving away to his right.

The Stags were in full buoyancy mode the very next ball, after Jones went right through the de-

fence of the competition’s leading batsman Jacob Naylor first ball to leave Celtic 32/3 in the 11th over.

However the Celts’ Ben Davenport and Sam Porter gritted it out, putting on 73 for the fourth wicket in what was the visitors’ highest stand of the innings.

Porter cleared the boundary on three occasions en route to 38, before he was bowled by Alex Veint in the 23rd over.

Davenport was resolute at the other end during his knock of 43, before he too was sent packing as Celtic slumped to 118/5.

From there on, the floodgates opened as the hosts took control,

mopping up the Celts’ lower order as the visitors lost their final five wickets for 21 runs.

Set 140 to win, Technical got off to a disastrous start as it lost Jason Morrison second ball of the innings.

The home team then consolidated, with Matt Tait keeping the scoreboard ticking over at one end while Harry Jones could not buy a run at the other end, kept to 4 from 32 balls.

Tech lost Tait for 25 as Naylor took consecutive catches in the field, before Tait nicked one through to the keeper to leave the Stags on 43/3.

Moments later, Bevan Richan was sent packing for a four-ball duck as the pressure ramped up on the Stags.

43/4 was then reduced to 68/7 as Ryan Bell, who hung in there for an unbeaten 33, lost partner after partner.

There was no rescue job to be had with Celtic unrelenting.

The Stags were all out for 105 in the 34th over, with Andrew Holden the key architect for Celtic with 4-35.

The Stags remain in fourth spot in the South Canterbury senior competition, with a road trip to Temuka in three days’ time.

CROQUET

Davis the destroyer

By Adam Burns adam.b@theguardian.co.nz

There was no long weekend leave for the Waireka Croquet Club.

The red polos were out in force both on home soil and down the line with one of the club’s own picking up the silverware in Timaru on Saturday.

Joyce Davis was a big winner at the weekend’s Croquet South Canterbury 10-16 Handicap Tournament as she went on an unbeaten run in her section.

She then edged Aorangi’s Doug Gibb in the final 7-6 to complete a sterling performance.

Three members of the club were in action at the event, held at West End, with a total of 16 contesting the tourney.

Back in Ashburton, the club hosted the annual Canstaff Blind

and Low Vision Tournament which consists of both croquet, formats.

Waireka donate a portion of its entry fee for Ashburton’s Blind Low Vision centre.

Brian Goodwin was the winner in block one of the golf croquet, followed by fellow Waireka competitor Rod Webb.

Aorangi’s Lindsey Thompson clinched block two with Colin Lamb, of Waireka, finishing as runner-up.

The hometown troops did the business in the association setup.

Logan McCorkindale continued on his merry way, winning the senior category, with Gail Benseman the next best.

Waireka pair Raylene Phillips and Reece McCorkindale were the best in the juniors, with Phillips taking out the top prize.

Waireka’s Colin Lamb follows through during Saturday’s croquet in Ashburton.

GOLF

TINWALD PAIR REIGN SUPREME

By Adam Burns adam.b@theguardian.co.nz

It was a fruitful weekend of golf for a pair of Tinwald players who went two for two across both days.

Alexander Roa and Tekopua Teremoana were one of two trophy winners on Saturday following the drawn partner 4BBB summer season opening at Tinwald.

The duo’s score of 60 clinched them the silverware in the mixed category.

They then backed it up at the Tinwald club the next day as part of the Kukis team, which also featured Pokoina Paraia and Maeva Timote, which were the best at the KPMG/ YMCA Ambrose Charity Golf tournament.

Sunday’s charity event featured a total of 19 teams of four who took to the course amid dazzling weather.

The tourney aided in fundraising efforts for YMCA’s youth development and education programmes in Mid Canterbury.

There were other big winners at Tinwald on the Saturday.

Andrew Barrie and Lawrence McCormick clinched the 4BBB men’s category, shooting a combined score of 64.

Barrie also provided the highlight of the day at Tinwald courtesy of a holein-one on the par 3 sixth hole.

Hamish Waller was one of the best dressed at Tinwald on the Sunday.

Ashburton Guardian Wednesday, November 18, 2020

Allenton Bowling Club

Another beautiful day on our greens, thank you to Bish and his team of workers for providing us with such a great surface to enjoy.

The club is very busy now with groups booked in for their end of year functions, Wendy Watson takes care of these, and the Bowls that they play are certainly enjoyed. Like all things it takes team work to make it happen.

The Canterbury Centre singles; we have two entries in each of the Men’s and Women’s events. Mat Bassett and Richard Kane each getting two wins but failing to qualify. Hard luck lads but a good effort.

Sandra Keith and Rachel Davies have both qualified.

Sandra lost in her first game after qualifing and Rachel made it to the last eight.

Great effort girls you have done the club proud.

Our three fives team that play Wednesday mornings had mixed results this week, two of our teams travelled to Halswell where Div. 1 had another good win and Div. 5 had a loss.

While Div3 played at home and drew with Kirwee.

On Saturday afternoon Sharpie ran the Progressive Pairs, the day was hot, and the players enjoyed being out in it.

The winning lead this week was Lindsay Forde 3 wins 2nd. Ken McLaren 2 wins 16 ends.

The winning skip John Bruce 2 wins 13 ends 2nd. Trevor Johnson 2 wins 11 ends.

Our Show Day Triples Still went ahead regardless of no Show to enjoy, Fourteen teams taking part, play started at 9 am followed by a BBQ and an afternoon of social activities.

What a great club day, every one enjoying the afternoon.

The tournament winner were R. Bennett, A. Sargisson, G Bishop 2nd. W Lloyd, M. Buchanan, G. Harrison 3rd. R Tonks, L Kearns, T Johnson, all with three wins.

The ladies are looking forward to the Charene Fours Tournament on Friday where there is always something to take home, be it a raffle, a prize from bowls or some goodies from the sales table.

A very enjoyable day is to be had. Come and join us even if you only wish to watch.

Keep up the good bowls Allenton members you are going well.

Ashburton Combined Friendship Club

Tony advised the details of the upcoming local bus trip to a large-scale vegetable producer and guided tour of the Wakanui district.

Linda confirmed the details of the Christmas Lunch to be held on 8 December and reminded members that prepayment was necessary.

Our first speaker was Linda Clarke, who is Editor of the Ashburton Courier. She grew up in Hinds, attending Ashburton College, leaving part way through the seventh form to become a proof-reader at the Ashburton Guardian.

A Cadetship as a reporter started her career as an “accidental” journalist.

After some years away, she returned to Ashburton and started her family.

She was working part time at the Guardian when the opportunity arose to become the editor of the Ashburton Courier.

She gave an outline of the workings of the Courier which is one of several Community Papers throughout the South Island owned by Allied Press.

The lockdown period gave them a chance to think about what they were doing and “reset” for more normal times.

Linda answered quite a range of questions re the Courier which gave us further insight into its operations.

Our second speaker was Grant Windsor who is an enthusiastic volunteer for Radio Lollipop, a children’s charity operating in 35 hospitals spread across six countries. It helps children who are in hospital with fun, play, music, and entertainment.

It started in the UK in 1978 and Christchurch started in 2013.

The radio signal is sent through the hospital via Wi-Fi to TVs in the wards and is a mix of locally produced material in a campervan studio and material streamed from the UK. The children in the hospital are able to interact with the studio and request their favourite items.

The new children’s ward is opening soon, and Radio Lollipop is looking forward to

Bruce Leighton with Helen Argyle after presenting the Ashburton 9-Holers trophies. having a permanent studio.

As well as the radio station, Lollipop volunteers visit the children in the wards to bring play, entertainment, and fun to sick children.

Grant’s enthusiasm was infectious, and he painted a vivid picture of the Lollipop organisation, which many of us were completely unaware of.

Meetings second Tuesday of month, Senior’s Centre 206 Cameron St, 9.30 am.

Visitors welcome.

Ashburton 9-Holers

The Thursday golfers held their closing day match and luncheon last week.

The winners of the Closing Day Greensome Trophy, with a stunning score of 23.5, were Anne Fleming and Terry O’Reilly.

Runners-up were Peter Greening and Lorraine Hansen (28.5).

The Opening Day Trophies were presented to Bev Blair (joint winner Paul Baird was not present).

In an amazing year of golf, Helen Argyle won all three of our trophies for putting, best nett and stableford!

Championship Trophies will be presented at the Club Awards Night on 28th November.

Congratulations to all winners.

On Saturday, winners of the Harvey Bakehouse Combined Stableford were Mitchell Leath and Peter Wright with a score of 37.

Runners-up were Maryanne Urquhart and Tonee Hurley (33), closely followed

by Kay Miles and Chris Anderson (32) and Terry O’Reilly and Dick Hansen (31).

From now until mid-January, Thursday’s programme will be Summer Golf: meet at 9:15am, tee-off when ready.

Saturdays, report as usual at 1:00pm.

Ashburton Toastmasters

Another relaxed Ashburton Toastmasters Club meeting was held on the 11th November, with Matt as Toastmaster of the evening.

Deirdre introduced the word of the evening, ‘speculate’, which many of our

members managed to incorporate into their speeches.

The first speech of the evening was newcomer Rose’s icebreaker, she reminded us we shouldn’t be shy to brag about our successes.

A decision to give rowing a go led to her succeeding in national rowing regattas and it was great to hear about her determination to beat previous years’ results.

A great first speech and we look forward to hearing more about Rose.

Second speaker was Sheree with an excellent presentation about the different learning styles and the challenge teachers face to cater for the various styles’ children respond to.

And of course, the teachers themselves have their own predominant learning style too!

Her speech got the room talking about our own preferred learning styles and thinking about those around us at home or work, very interesting.

Table Topics was also very thought-provoking and fun, whereby Jeff had cut out various Guardian headlines with which speakers had to expand on.

Excellent 1-to-2 minute responses about injury rates on Mt Hutt skifield declining, the second bridge for Ashburton, the recycling struggle, and where pain, name-calling and sport may or may not be good for us.

A short tea break gave us a chance to chat about the speeches and upcoming events.

After the break we had a good hour of evaluations, which are a key aspect of our meetings.

It helps us all to improve our speaking as well as evaluation skills.

We have 4 members competing in the District’s Humourous Speech and Table Topics competition on the 25th of November.

Toastmasters International have stipulated these competitions to be run via Zoom, hence the club members will meet at Netherby School to support Matt, Neysa (Humourous) Sheree and Rebecca (Table Topics).

The following meeting on the 9th of December will be the club’s last one for 2020.

Ashburton Golf Club

A beautiful summer’s day saw a good crowd take to the Brandon on Saturday, plenty of growth around after the maintenance week shows that Ben and the boys have really got the course ticking along.

Well done to everyone involved.

We played for the AM Sutherland trophy which is a combined stableford pairs, and the tough conditions showed in the scoring. T op pair for the day were Blair Franklin and Paul Warren with 71 points, a single point ahead of the wonderful mum and daughter dynamic duo of Bev and Wendy.

The mixed days are always great fun, its

about time we got a lot more.

Attention turns to the Sante Marie trophy this week and the Final of the RMF Silva Cup. The Sante Marie is an individual stroke round and is always a well sought-after trophy.

The RMF Silva top 20 has been sorted, and we will be looking at these players scores in great detail.

Steve McCloy sits top of the pile on 41 points, so, of course, a top score on the day will see him pick up the cup, but with an extra 8 bonus points on offer to the top score along with the 15 points for winning, means that any of the top five will get the prize with an outright top score.

The top 5 consists of Steve, Gav Douglas, Murray Wackrow, Chris Lovelock and Noel Sutton.

Of course, if these boys fail to fire, then anyone of the top 18 can win with an outright top score and other scores falling their way.

Remember the last 2 years, where Tom and Sam have swooped in from outside the top 10 to snatch the top prize in the final.

We would love to top 20 players to play together in the afternoon, if possible, to add a bit of spice to the day, but we understand that some are unable.

If you can play afternoon then please do, but if you cannot, then we do ask that you keep your score to yourself when you finish, so as not to unduly effect the afternoon golfers.

Many thanks again to our great friends at RMF Silva, this is always a great cup to win, and has had over 110 players scoring points in it this season.

Coming up on the calendar on the 28th we have the Closing day Smallbone Trophy and Presentation Night, get your tickets from the club, this is always a great night.

We wish all our Aorangi Rep players well, as they venture out to their National inter provincial tournaments.

We know they will do us proud, on and off the course.

Whilst the Inter provincials are top of mind, it is only a year away from our hosting of the 2021 Mens nationals, so it must be time to get some volunteer teams together to make this a great success.

Please keep your eyes peeled over the next couple of weeks as Paddy will be calling a meeting for all interested parties and he will be doing a fair bit of shoulder tapping to get a great crew together.

See you around the course, good golfing

Ashburton Hearing Association

The Ohoka Farmers market was the first stop on the recent Ashburton Hearing Association Bus Trip.

Members had fun exploring the stalls and discovering an incredible array of items on offer.

Quite a few purchases were made, and the bus was carrying a little more weight when we left the market.

After a short drive through some interesting country we arrived at our lunch destination - a private airfield at Swannanoa.

While we enjoyed a picnic lunch the owners of the airfield and friends who help them spoke about their facility where among other things, they run courses to help and mentor young people.

The methods they use are fascinating and they are certainly helping young people to find a direction in life.

Our return journey included a drive around Pegasus Village and the tradition ice cream stop.

It was a great day out!

Our Christmas Lunch is being held on Friday 27 November.

Your Stars

5

ARIES (Mar 21-Apr 19): It won’t be enough to do the thing once, although doing a thing once a day for the next four weeks will work wonders.

Now the question is, how are you going to remind yourself?

TAURUS (Apr 20-May 20): Your capacity to delight others is large and ever-expanding. You get such a thrill from seeing their smiles that the quest has become, by now, a sweet addiction.

GEMINI (May 21-Jun 21): It’s not a stretch to say that relationships matter more than anything else in life, or even more than life itself, since you gladly give so much of your time and breath to making them run beautifully.

CANCER (Jun 22-Jul 22): How readily do you forgive?

If you do decide that someone needs forgiveness, you’ll take it through a process.

Your conscious awareness of this process will help you sort out today’s action.

LEO (Jul 23-Aug 22): Generous and helpful, you have plenty to offer people. Avoid giving it in the form of advice though, especially the unsolicited variety. Most people don’t even listen to the advice they actually asked for.

VIRGO (Aug 23-Sep 22): Age-old wisdom holds up for good reason. Truth endures. Well over a millennia ago, Plato said, “For a man to conquer himself is the first and noblest of all victories.” This still applies today.

LIBRA (Sep 23-Oct 23): There are certain people around who give you such a warm feeling that it’s like the two of you are much better friends than your actual friendship history would suggest.

It’s OK because the feeling is mutual.

SCORPIO (Oct 24-Nov 21): Laughing is intimacy.

When you make someone laugh, they are connecting with you on a deeper than surface level – a level of truth, pain and vulnerability.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22-Dec 21): The reason not to participate in gossip is that afterward you’d feel dirty, and the next time you saw the person you’d spoken ill of, you would feel worse. That’s reason enough to stay out of it.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 19): It’s like your life is being run by a scientific inquiry. You’ll make a prediction and then experiment to see what occurs. Be sure to record it all, because that will ultimately be your key to success.

AQUARIUS (Jan 20-Feb 18): It’s easier to make a thing happen when you want it so badly that you’re having trouble thinking of anything else.

PISCES (Feb 19-Mar 20): What gets confusing is when you don’t know if you love a person, or you love your projected fantasy about who that person is. The question will have more relevance today when you’re likely to be thrown by someone’s behaviour.

MIDWEEK SPORT

Turning up the heat

Julia Chamberlain made her first ride for the Tinwald Cycling Club a memorable one when she took victory in the Spray Marks, Stoked Cycles 48km handicap event around the Wakanui Beach block on Sunday.

Chamberlain made a bold solo mid-race move, breaking clear from her mark and holding on gamely to find the line with 20 seconds to spare from the chasing bunch of back markers.

Scratch marker Steve Hands led the chasing group in to secure second place and record fastest time honours, riding the distance in 68.38.

Tony Ward was hot on his tail to claim the third place spoils and take second fastest time.

Kyle Gray continued his rapid improvement this season with fourth place and third fastest time.

Cole Harris produced his trademark tough ride to take fifth place, with Rob Hooper riding into sixth.

The juniors and division 2 contested a 16km handicap event. After a couple of second places, Honor Bradford was rewarded for a great ride to take the win in the junior grade.

Emulating the open event winner, Honor held on strongly to keep the chasing marks at bay.

Ryan Gallagher chased strongly to get within two seconds of Honor on the finish line, securing second place and fastest time, riding the course in 31.47.

Leah Reid produced a top sprint to take third place with Penny Marriott challenging strongly to claim fourth place.

Tom Reid rounded out the top five.

Merv Grewar continued his good form to take first place in division 2.

Janette Hooper charged into second place to record fastest time, with Nigel Leary filling the final podium spot.

Next week the club travels to Mt Somers to contest a 45km mass start event.
