Church celebrates its 150th

St Cuthbert’s Anglican Church celebrated 150 years of Christian ministry in the Collingwood area on Sunday of Labour Weekend with a service and lunch. Over 80 people attended, some coming from as far away as Auckland and Timaru. Attendees included past ministers; those baptised, confirmed, or married in the church; as well as those who attended church, Sunday School, or youth group. The church, which was spruced up for the occasion by members of the current congregation, was built in 1873 and was designed by the architect and legendary explorer Thomas Brunner. It survived Collingwood’s disastrous series of fires by dint of its relative remoteness from the village below. St Cuthbert’s, which is part of the Golden Bay Anglican Parish, which in turn is part of the Nelson Anglican Diocese, has been the home of a continuous Christian witness since the appointment of its first vicar, Dr Henry Codrington, in 1861. The parish is currently seeking a new vicar.
The story of the church is one of joy and tragedy. Its third vicar, Richard Gaskin, drowned in the Aorere River in 1872 while returning from taking a service in Pākawau. He had been enthusiastically working towards the building of the church and his death was met with great sadness, not only by his congregation and fellow clergy, but by the community in general. The miners at the Perseverance Mine stopped working to go and help to look for his body, which was eventually found in the estuary near his home some weeks later. A m o n g t h o s e at te n d i n g S u n d ay ’s celebrations were descendants of John and Mary Riley, some of the earliest worshippers, plus several people who had been present at the 100th celebration in 1973, and the 125th in 1998. Rev Fred Greig, who was curate at St Cuthbert’s in 1963-4, recalled a busy church life, which included regular services at Pākawau, Rockville, Bainham, and Mangarākau. The Bishop of Nelson, Steve Maina, preached from Paul’s second letter to Timothy written from prison.
After the reading, he said God is faithful and God’s word is “unchained” and still changing people’s lives by giving them hope. Following the service, a commemorative wooden seat made by Brian Cooper was unveiled in the church grounds by Rev Watiri Maina, the bishop’s wife. In the church hall attendees enjoyed a sumptuous lunch provided by Rural Women, a presentation of a painting of the church by Auckland artist and minister Fred Brunell, and a slideshow of church life from the last 150 years. The celebration ended with a visit to the old Collingwood cemetery where Rev Gaskin is buried. His grave is directly above that of Dr Henry Turnell, resident magistrate and goldfield warden, who chaired the St Cuthbert’s building committee, but who tragically drowned crossing the Tākaka River in 1874. Near their graves is that of Tamati Pirimona Marino, the chief who presided over the Māori whare on Wapping Point in Collingwood, which served as the first church in the area, attended by both Māori and Europeans.
Feedback on freshwater JO RICHARDS
Freshwater remains high on New Zealand’s political agenda and is a key focus for central government and councils. At local government level, Tasman District Council’s work is guided by the National Policy Statement for Freshwater Management, input from iwi, and feedback from communities across the district. These communities now have a further opportunity to shape TDC’s freshwater policy by providing feedback on the council’s draft environmental outcomes. For Golden Bay it’s another chance to influence the rules and regulations that will eventually be applied to its two Freshwater Management Units (FMUs) – the Tākaka and Aorere-West Coast catchments. The current exercise is the third round of the council’s “Mountains to the Sea” engagement programme and is being conducted almost exclusively online. The public have until 30 November to have their say by completing a survey on TDC's website which invites feedback on the 21 draft environmental outcomes. For each outcome there is short statement followed three options: agree; disagree; or "other". In each case, respondents are asked whether there is a specific outcome they would like to see for a specific waterbody or FMU. In its Visions and Values document, informed by previous feedback, TDC created draft visions for each FMU and identified 17 values for freshwater across the district, all of which apply to the Golden Bay FMUs. The document also included a common vision for 2035: “…our land and freshwater management provides for our community’s social, economic and cultural wellbeing. People have access to safe, clean water for drinking, swimming, recreation and cultural uses.” While the path to achieving that vision is long and complicated, the process of providing feedback is relatively straightforward and supported, in this case, by series of three public webinars hosted by TDC during November. Once this latest round is completed, the next steps towards achieving the vision include working with iwi on planning provisions, and further public engagement. TDC webinars: Tuesday 7 November, 12 noon; Wednesday 8 November, 6.30pm; Wednesday 22 November, 6.30pm. Zoom links are on the TDC webpage.

NEWS IN BRIEF Boys' & Girls' Agricultural Show
JO RICHARDS
Tomorrow’s Boys' and Girls' Agricultural Show is set to be a big spring day out for Golden Bay. Just like a mini A&P Show, one of the main attractions is the judging of the lambs, goats, calves, horses and dogs as they parade around the arena with their young handlers. There are plenty of other things to see and do, including face-painters, a petting zoo, and a creative table with an ample supply of pens and paper, to keep the young ones happy, while the Dance Collective Mohua performance and emergency services demonstrations will appeal to all ages. Meanwhile, inside, the booth will display a wide range of fruit and veggies – including a “funniest vegetable” category, floral arrangements, sewing and craftwork, plus an exhibition of photographs. All this activity is bound to work up appetites, but there’s no need to bring your own snacks. On site catering includes a sausage sizzle, flavoured shaved ice, a cake stall, plus coffee from Goodness2Go. Although showday is this Saturday, organiser Abbie Langford says it’s not too late to enter any of the competition categories, which can even be left until the last minute. “Entries are still open on Saturday morning – we try to make it as easy as possible.” GB Boys' & Girls' Agricultural Show is at the Rec Park Centre on Saturday 4 November. Gates open at 10am. For more information contact Abbie Langford on 027 624 0680.
Sun City Country Music Awards
SUBMITTED
Twelve-year-old Maggie Quinn has struck gold at the New Zealand Sun City Country Music Awards, held in Nelson over Labour Weekend. In her first ever competition, the Golden Bay girl with the golden voice performed five different songs in several categories : Rock ‘n’ Roll; Country Rock; Open New Country; Junior Vocal; and Under-18 Novice. She took home the top awards for Junior Vocal and Junior Overall. Although this was Maggie’s first taste of competition, she has worked with Levity Beet over the years performing songs, videos and harmonies for his children’s music which can be heard and seen on Spotify and YouTube. She also sings lead vocals and plays guitar in “Chain Reaction” – a band managed by Levity and, in the past, she has taken singing lessons with accomplished vocalist Cath Tucker. In addition, her stage skills have been honed by involvement with Ronnie Short’s Kidztheatre, so she is no stranger to the limelight. 2

“Small but mighty” is how Motupipi Primar y School principal Rachel Evans d e s c r i b e d t h e “a m a z i n g fundraising committee”, who once again pulled off another successful plant sale last Saturday 28 October. Spirits were high as a perfect day dawned for the occasion, unlike last year when rain forced the sale to take place inside classrooms. Full support was given by parents and children contributing their energy in every area, from the pop-up café selling cakes, muffins, and other baking, to the “amazing” raffle prizes. There was even a group of budding beauticians who set up a nail salon. Sarah and Luke from ITM gave up their Saturday morning to fire up their deluxe barbeque and sell sausages. A huge list of sponsors and companies supported the school, plus members from the wider community who grew plants specifically for this fundraiser. While Rachel explained that plants and pots had been arriving at the office door for at least the past two months, many plants were also supplied by just a few within the school community. Plant manager for the event, Teresa Brough, who is also a flower grower and florist, visited private homes to select

and pot up plants for people unable to deliver. She raised many of the veggie plants herself with the help of Terry Knight’s shadehouse, and soil donated and delivered by Solly’s. She was also responsible for laying out the plants “nursery style”, elevating many and grouping others into easy-to-find categories. The quality of plants this year was high, with a good variety of veggie and herb seedlings, fruit and native trees, house-plants, grasses, shrubs, and exotics. Many new offers of plants have been promised for next year, including a large selection of roses, kūmara, and tamarillos. A gardening booth run by plant doctor and

garden expert Nicky Morris was also a popular new initiative and is likely to become a major drawcard in the future for identifying plants and giving growing advice. The sale was a huge success, drawing a large enthusiastic crowd, most of whom left with boxes brimming with plants, leaving very little left by the end of Saturday afternoon. The grand tally reached just over $12,000. “It has been an amazing community effort,” exclaimed Rachel. “This is one of our big fundraisers. This year the money is going towards our playground and sports equipment.”

LE T TERS New X-ray machine at GB Community Health
I want to correct some information circulating about our new X-ray machine and what the provision of the service will be: We are expecting our new machine to be installed before Christmas. We currently have four registered nurses who are already trained to take limb X-rays and this service will continue from day one. Our new machine has the potential and capacity to take other X-rays but for GBCH to do so, relies on us securing a contract with Te Whatu Ora to employ a trained radiographer or MRT and being funded to provide that service. That is not guaranteed, nor in place yet and will be part of future contract negotiations. Ruth Robson, GBCH general manager

I attended the meeting on the proposal to raise shrimp in the Bay (GBW, 20/10). Dr Heasman explained that this research was funded by millions of dollars invested by an unnamed (to the audience) company. They will be expecting to recoup this huge investment once the research is completed and the ideal place to introduce this, we were told, is in the marine waters of Golden Bay. The company wants ecological concerns to be taken into account, with acknowledgement that applied feeding would cause pollution of the seabed. Therefore, the shrimps would feed directly from the sea. What appears to have been overlooked are the demands that have already been introduced to our waters and that are already planned to increase, namely mussel farming, which are taking a toll on the nutrients which contribute to the health of our marine life. I feel to add another big venture reliant on natural feeding in a partially enclosed area is taking a huge gamble on our marine environment not crashing. For years dead penguins, and other sea birds, have been found washed up on the beaches. About seven years ago, two dead penguins from Patons Rock beach were taken, by a friend, to a local vet who thought malnutrition rather than disease, was the cause and who said this was becoming more common. Economic growth at the expense of our environment has been recognised as the major cause of climate change, which threatens all species. Karen Brookes
First principle of war

FOR ALL YOUR CARTAGE NEEDS: General Freight Storage Bulk Cartage Livestock
Those of us having received military training or served in the armed forces, will know from the 10 principles listed, the "First Principle" of war is "to destroy the enemy’s will to wage war". The remaining nine principles tell how to achieve this. Israel has declared the aim of its war is to "destroy Hamas". It is clear that this is the prime goal. Why does the world expect to bring about a cease fire? The only way to end this terrible war is to prosecute the First
Principle. With the destruction of Hamas, their will to fight must end. We must remember it took two atom bombs to destroy the Japanese "will to wage war" in 1945. Reg Turner
Final risks of climate change ignored
Are we accelerating towards an abyss of debt-fuelled madness? The 2023 paper titled The Emperor’s New Climate Scenarios: Limitations and assumptions of commonly used climate-change scenarios in financial services, illuminates false assumptions commonly employed within the financial services sector. Those who continue to project economic growth scenarios have a profound impact on socio-environmental impacts, particularly in cases where the Tasman District Council (TDC) chose to invest ratepayers' funds as debt for assets supporting the expansion of private industries, such as marine farming or even the Waimea Growers Dam. These scenarios raise concerns as the ongoing expansion of industries and society leads to increased material throughput and higher waste outputs, exacerbating environmental impacts. The paper underscores the pressing need for financial institutions and decision-makers to reassess their risk assessment models, incorporating worst-case scenarios and recognise the interconnected risks associated with human activities leading to climate change. Furthermore, the paper highlights the importance of acknowledging "net zero" as an integral part of fiduciary duty. In the context of the TDC’s debt investment decisions, understanding and addressing the underestimated risks linked to climate change and its environmental impacts should be a key component of the investment strategy, ensuring that activities of private industry align with responsible long-term environmental practices. The paper emphasises the necessity for a paradigm shift in financial risk assessment to better account for climate-related risks and their environmental consequences in investment decisions, especially in situations where continued industrial and social expansion will likely worsen these impacts.

With a dry winter and spring, this summer could well be a drought as predicted by NIWA. The El Niño pattern will mean above-normal wind strength along with temperatures, and below-normal rainfall. For the gardener, being prepared for a dry summer could make all the difference in terms of healthy productive crops. Here are some preventative tips: 1. Mulch everything with organic matter. This helps protect the soil from drying out and conserves soil moisture. For the vegetable garden, best to use cellulose carbon like hay/straw, or grass clippings or seagrass/seaweed. Wait until direct-sown seedlings of carrot are 10cm high and transplanted seedlings are 15cm, to avoid being eaten by slugs or snails. The orchard will benefit from woody mulches, especially young trees, subtropicals like avocados and citrus, and stone fruit such as peaches. Seagrass/seaweed and cutting down herbal ley from the row between trees or perennial understorey plants is also of benefit but doesn’t persist as a mulch for long. 2. Irrigation helps, especially if mulch is scarce and the soil is free draining. Depending on scale and water availability, there are a range of options. Sprinklers on standards cover up to 25m round and can be moved about, as can a variety of home garden sprinkler systems. Sprayers can be added on risers on permanent irrigation systems. Both require good
water supplies and pressure. Strip tape irrigation is a good option on low pressure systems. All these irrigation types can be set up with timers. For those with time, hand watering with trigger pistol that has a range of spray options can ensure the soil is targeted, which is most beneficial for leaf-sensitive crops like tomatoes and cucumbers. 3. Keep garden weeded to reduce competition with crops. 4. Water conservation is rather important for those of us on rainwater. Adding small tanks to the garden shed or lean-to could make all the difference. And using shower water may be necessary. 5. Spacing plants at optimum distance rather than cramming them in offers crops the best availability to much-needed water (and nutrients). 6. Fruit thinning will reduce the demand for water and encourage less but larger fruit. Depending on fruit set up to 50 per cent can be removed. Focus on removing damaged, diseased, shaded, and too many on the ends. 7. Shelter from winds will greatly reduce plant water loss. Temporary solutions include setting up a wind cloth fence using standards. Ideally your garden and orchard have a mixed species shelter belt that not only diffuses strong winds but also provides wildlife habitat and offers woody carbon as mulch when chipped strategically.
SOL’S GARDEN JOBS FOR NOVEMBER Vegetable care: Complete kūmara planting into fertile beds. Plant warm-loving crops like capsicums into weed mat mulched beds with irrigation underneath. Sow and plant a succession of crops, eg carrots and lettuce for ongoing supply. Lightly till beds to deter soil pests like cutworms, etc. Check for slugs and snails. Spray Bt on Brassicas. Liquid-fertilise growing seedlings. Keep mounding potatoes and yams, or mulch. Sow green crops into spare beds or those that need more fertility, eg buckwheat and crimson clover. Use poles, frames with string lines, or 665 mesh to train beans, cucumbers, and tomatoes up. Stake asparagus fronds and feed with compost and mulch. Spray with garlic and pyrethrum on pest infestations, eg aphid. Hothouse: Keep propagating leafy greens, flowers, and annual herbs. Add flowers and herbs like basil around hothouse tomatoes. Remove bottom leaves on tomatoes and cucumbers as they grow up. Water and ventilate well. Sow for transplanting: All seeds 5 and 25 November. Leeks, spring onions, and leafy greens (celery, spinach, spinach beet, silver beet, lettuce, endive, cabbages, kale, cauliflower, broccoli, Brussels sprouts) (4 and 14-15 Nov). Flowers (3 and 30 Nov). Sow direct: All seeds 5 and 25 November. Salads, spring onions (4 and 14-15 Nov). Corn, zucchini, pumpkin/squash, cucumbers, French and climbing beans and peas (6, 8, 16-17 Nov). Carrots, beetroot, radish, parsnip (9-12 Nov). Flowers (3 and 30 Nov). Plant: Best 18-29 November. Salad greens, spinach, cabbages,
cauliflower, broccoli, tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, eggplants, zucchini, pumpkins, yams, kūmara, and main potatoes. Flowers, eg canna. Rhubarb. Avoid gardening on 13 November (new moon) and 27 November (full moon). Herb care: Harvest herbs to dry, eg oregano. Weed and mulch. Plant all herbs. Direct-sow coriander, basil, and dill. Fruit care: Harvest citrus. Plant/prune subtropicals. Divide and plant comfrey root around drip line of fruit trees or into borders. Prune grapes back to five leaves after fruit bunch. Foliar-feed fruits with seaweed, compost tea, worm juice, and/or fish. Hang pheromone traps to prevent caterpillar damage. Spray Madex 2 vs codling moth pest. Spray Bt on berry fruit. Spray neem oil or mineral oil on citrus vs sap-sucking insects that cause black sooty mould fun-gus. Spray copper oxychloride or lime sulphur after leaf bud burst (but not both together) on disease-susceptible fruits. Spray garlic and pyrethrum and/or neem oil on apples, feijoas, etc, vs bronze beetle and woolly apple aphid. Insert trichodowels into silverleaf fungus-affected fruits, especially stone fruit. General garden care: Mow lawns on high and ideally don’t catch clippings every time. Apply lime/dolomite before it rains. Make and turn lots of compost as you weed or mow. Add manure. Prune perennials and shrubs after flowering, eg roses. THE GB WEEKLY, FRIDAY 3 NOVEMBER 2023
NEED A NEW BBQ TABLE?
NEWS IN BRIEF Woodchopping season starts SUBMITTED
Labour Weekend saw the start of the chopping season for the Golden Bay Axemans Club. On Saturday Dave and Serena Gowland were at the Rangiora Show. Axemen competing there came from throughout the South Island and the wood was a firm hybrid poplar. Serena chopped in the three women's underhand races against some very good opposition, starting strongly but running out of power as the day progressed, finishing the day with a 1st, 2nd and 3rd. Dave couldn't match Serena's success, making three of the four open finals but finishing out of the placings. The most notable being the big underhand where he had a commanding lead in the final only to totally botch the finish and end up disqualified. Dave then combined with Nic Corbin from Canterbury to easily win the butcher's block race. Brian Godsiff and new axeman Brett Pocock chopped on the Sunday at the Ngātimoti School Fair which, as well as providing valuable race training, also assists with the school fundraising by helping to entertain the large crowd at the fair.

A bright pink campervan with large words on the side reading “Let’s Talk Breast Health” cruised over the Hill for two days last week. The visit coincided with Breast Cancer Awareness Week, and the mission of “Cammy” and the two nurses on board was to talk to as many people as possible, to provide information about the disease that affects one in nine Kiwi women and some men. The Breast Cancer Foundation already have “Pinky”, an educational caravan, on the road and have now added Cammy the campervan to be able to reach more communities. Wild, wet, windy weather on Thursday in Collingwood meant the awning could not be opened to show displays and the children’s play area wasn’t able to be pulled out. Instead, Libi and Alison took “Betsy” visiting. Betsy is a torso used to demonstrate breast care and self-examination. Following discussions, women took home pink shopping bags, informational resources, and a greater awareness of breast health.

WHAT’S HAPPENING IN THIS PROGRAMME: SAT 11th
South Korean-Canadian director Celine Song has drawn upon her own history to create her first feature film, Past Lives. Like Song, the heroine of the film, Na Young, (Greta Lee), immigrates to Canada at age twelve, leaving behind a smitten young classmate Hae Sung (Teo Yoo). Twelve years later, Na Young has changed her name to Nora Moon and now lives in New York, pursuing her career as a writer. During a call with her mother she is reminded of Hae Sung and searches for mention of him online, discovering that he has been trying to reach her. Nora’s new name had derailed his efforts, but they now make contact. Resuming their friendship with video calls, a strong degree of unrequited longing is soon discovered. However, with complications frustrating any plans to meet in person, Nora decides it is better for them both to focus on their own separate lives and move on. Another twelve years pass and Nora is now married, but finally receives a visit from Hae Sung who has left his girlfriend and travelled to New York to see her. This long-awaited reunion is the heart of the film, and explores the profound effect that our own past, and cultural identity, can still have on ourselves and those around us. Past Lives has been enthusiastically embraced by film critics and audiences, proving that romance is still very much alive at the cinema. Although low on incident and sometimes even dialogue, this leisurely paced story will amply reward anyone willing to join its gradual 24-year journey. The lead actors are very capable of not only carrying, but practically”being” the story. Particularly Greta Lee, whose character’s westernised upbringing allows her a more demonstrative performance, contrasting well with Teo Yoo’s far more reserved and mannered portrayal. When they finally meet she laughs and throws her arms around him, while he woodenly stands and asks her what he should say. But such is the skill of the acting and direction that his hidden inner turmoil is clear. As a child, Na Young already possessed an irreverent sense of humour, one of the aspects which Hae Sung always held dear. As a bicultural adult she is able to give full vent to her sly wit and high-spiritedness, and Greta Lee gives a surely awardwinning, highly charismatic performance. The third person in this triangle is Arthur, Nora’s writer husband. Initially almost a caricature of an introspective, Jewish New Yorker intellectual, he is still given room for surprising development despite his ”spare wheel” status. When Hae Sung comes into their lives his insecurity and jealousy surfaces, but he is honest enough to admit it. “I was just thinking about what a good story this is,” he says. “Childhood sweethearts reconnect twenty years later only to realise they were meant for each other. I just can’t compete”. He’s clearly fishing for reassurance which Nora provides and the three of them go to a bar. This threatens to be excruciatingly awkward, with Nora having to frequently translate her conversation with Hae Sung for an excluded Arthur. Past Lives actually opens with a flash forward to this moment, with unseen observers speculating upon the nature of the relationship between the three. Coming full circle we find that we have now become completely invested in this trio, and are holding our breath waiting to see how the scene will play out. The outcome will most likely take you by surprise, and the ending may even break your heart. All those quiet human moments gradually stacked up over the film's running time prove to have astonishing emotional weight as the credits roll. Tomorrow afternoon at 4pm is a unique opportunity to see the acclaimed New Zealand film Stylebender, about MMA champion Israel Adesanya, and hear "co-star" and Israel’s therapist Janet Redmond speak in person afterwards. Don’t miss this very special event.

THE GB WEEKLY, FRIDAY 3 NOVEMBER 2023
A show to bring people together ANITA PETERS
Th e l a te s t D r a m a L A B production, Come Unity, is described as an “unravelling street theatre show that brings people together”. Director Martine Baanvinger says this is new to the group, who have been developing the collaborative theme on the street over the past seven months. Fifteen shows, each 25 minutes long, will be performed at 10 different centres over only four days in November, starting in Collingwood. “It’s a very exciting, highenergy tour,” explains Martine. “It’s pack up, in the car, drive, unpack, perform, pack up, in the car, every day; it’s going to be real fun.” The theme is “bridging the divide”. Through developing physical theatre skills in their Monday night training group over the past several years, the seven actors under Martine’s tuition have been able to cocreate this highly original and innovative work. “They’re a really dynamic, fun and daring bunch – they’re not shy, they really go fully into it,” explains Martine. “This show is about what happens if your world is totally pulled apart. This can be on a personal level but also on a community level. How can we come together again across a massive crevasse that has formed? It is not about right and wrong, as everyone will

have their own experience and views, which will define what’s right and wrong for each individual or group. It’s about how we can come back together in a way that we can move forward.” The group, sharing diverse experiences, backgrounds, and opinions, discussed what could heal the divide. Time was one immediate answer, the healer of wounds. Compassion was another. Enjoyment and fun, celebration, and dancing all emerged as ideas. “Also, fighting your war with love,” adds Martine. “And inclusion, reaching out to your community.” Street theatre in itself bridges the gap that usually exists between performers and audience. Part of the training technique Martine
Takaka
teaches is to make a composition in three minutes. There have been at least 15 different compositions on bridging the divide, but those resonating with them all were chosen for the best fit. The story literally unravels, revealing layer after layer of the theme as it goes. A pop-up audience during rehearsals reported every emotion felt, one person describing it as “a rollercoaster”. “There’s no wrong or right,” reiterates Martine. “Whichever way you interpret what you’re seeing, is right.” Come Unity, Thursday 9 November: 11.30am at the boat ramp, Collingwood. 1.30pm and 3.30pm at the Junction Green, Tākaka. 6.30pm in Stoke. See poster for details of shows in Tapawera, Wakefield, Richmond, Nelson, Mapua, Lower Moutere, and Motueka.

Keen competition at CAS Show Day

Servicing the Bay from the Bay
Collingwood Area School held its annual Show Day last Tuesday 24 October. Always a highlight in the school’s calendar, the show was opened by principal Hugh Gully who welcome everyone before the parading and judging began in earnest. The forecast of showers failed put a damper on the number of entries and there was stiff competition in several categories. The judges were particularly impressed by the quality of the lambs, admitting some hard decisions had to be made as to who would get the winners’ ribbons. As well as admiring the animals, showgoers viewed the wide range of students' craftwork displayed in the hall and visited fundraising stalls run by the library, Te Kuruwaka and the Aorere Childcare and Education Charity. Keeping everyone fed and watered, the sausage sizzle and the coffee cart did steady business all morning.

How to beat Str8ts – Like Sudoku, no single number can repeat in any row or column. But... rows and columns are divided by black squares into compartments. These need to be filled in with numbers that complete a ‘straight’. A straight is a set of numbers with no gaps but can be in any order, eg [4,2,3,5]. Clues in black cells remove that number as an option in that row and column, and are not part of any straight. Glance at the solution to The solutions will be published here in the next issue. see how ‘straights’ are formed.
