Contamination destroying recycling efforts. My thoughts on recycling would stop on the curb. It wasn’t until I documented the journey of the glass bottle, as a video piece for QTV, that I really started to think about it. On the morning of the 27 of August, I followed the SOS trucks and recorded the glamour crane lifts and audio glass clanks from their Frankton run. Once I got my shots, I had to be on-call for the briefed, big dump. There was a problem. “One of the trucks is pretty contaminated. I don’t know if you would want to film this” I wondered how the driver knew. Turns out, the trucks are kitted with a camera inside the hopper, the driver gets a live feed of what comes out of the bin. This was my only opportunity to get this, otherwise I had to wait another two weeks! After a hesitant wait, the ops manager got word of a ‘less’ contaminated load that’ll champion the day. I wondered what it took to deem a load unworthy. As the hopper slowly lifted up, I got the answer! Glass bottles pouring out mixed with tins, beerboxes, a towel, just general household rubbish littered throughout the load. A worker then scans through the huge glassy knoll, pulling out unwanted contaminates with a long pick up stick. The bobcat rotates the glass pile so they can sort through the pile once again. I became overwhelmed with emotion. How could people be so negligent. This hopper was mean to be filled with Glass bottles and Jars ONLY. This wasn’t even the contaminated truck. The driver recorded 20 bins that ruined that load. So now you know, our glass recycling is at the mercy of lazy recyclers. How do we make this message clear!? Glass is uniquely sustainable; it can be used over and over again an infinite number of times! We have the O-I plant in Auckland recycling it! It’s no easy feat to get our glass up there but it can be done. A transit in Christchurch, traversing South to North to get to Auckland but what if it’s contaminated? We bare a hefty landfill bill. There is no room for error – 1 smashed pyrex dish and the load is condemned to landfill. My heart goes out to the staff at the recycling center. It must get depressing to see regular truckloads of glass (that could be reused again) go to landfill. I get the feeling that we haven’t sent any glass up there yet because we can’t get a clean load. I left the scene and wept again. Driving with a headache fury against our complacent human race. How can we drill this in. BLUE recycling BIN is ‘Glass bottles and jars ONLY’! Period.

Facebook / Website comments RE: ‘Notta lotta Ramada Parking’ whinge I know of a place in Fernhill which has 8 residents renting it, and they have 1 carpark... WTF... how can this be allowed to happen?
RE: Notta lotta Ramada Parking
Shotgun. RE: Ripped Jeans. I don’t get it.
Just wait until the new hotel on the corner of Man and Brecon St gets built with not a single car park - that will add 40-50 cars per night trying to find a park in the CBD streets. How the council approves such complexes is ridiculous. Our central government is encouraging tourists to use rental cars over buses with multi-million dollar advertising campaigns but our council doesn’t insist any car parks are built
with large hotels. Now they finally seem to realise the CBD is becoming impossible to access and want another 1100 car parks. They should have listened to the public for the last 10 years rather than remove car parks in the CBD and think everyone will catch the $2 bus.
Please get your judging habits together and solve them. Young girls can use whatever they like. I encourage you to use this space to talk about reasonable subjects like climate change, poverty, education, unemployment, health care, and corruption. Have a lovely day!
At least you have carparks out at Frankton.

RE: Measles making a comeback. Congratulations Measles making a comeback. Great piece!! It’s incredible that in the middle of 2019, measles which had almost disappeared has come back with a vengeance with almost 1000 cases reported throughout the country. I’m all for citizens individual rights but when it comes to common sense things like protecting the community as a whole, individuals rights don’t replace an individual’s responsibility. Those who cant be bothered or can’t get their head around the science of getting vaccinated or for some other reason don’t get their child vaccinated are a dangerous risk to everyone.
They are the weak link and if common sense, undeniable research and free access to vaccines cant generate action then the rights to education, sport etc should be suspended until they get with the program. No one has the right refuse to take a vaccine when the impact can affect us all. The governments lets all be nice and hope for the best attitude will take too long and enable a medical crisis to unfold. It works in the neighbour’s across the pond where non vaccinated kids cant access public resources, it time to do the same here. No right to refuse.
Sparkling water. Not a nice tingling feeling. What’s up with sparkling water. I find the taste like TV static. #lickthetv RE: Poll Question - Do you think the SDHB has the measles outbreak in Queenstown under control? What a loaded question! How can you control an outbreak when their are people out their who don’t vaccinate. I’m sure the SDHB are doing all that they can but if you don’t help yourself how can others help you!

LAKES WEEKLY BULLETIN
Resentment building fast to crude and rushed freshwater blueprint by Chris Allen, Federated Farmers environment spokesperson Huge turnouts to the meetings to discuss the government’s Essential Freshwater proposals have caught the Ministry for the Environment on the hop. An estimated 150 farmers had to wait outside in the cold because the venue at Winton on September 12 couldn’t accommodate them all. The day before, in Ashburton, 350-400 farmers turned up. It shouldn’t have been a surprise. Some parts of the proposals could be workable with some tweaks but other fundamental aspects are onerous, unjustified, even reckless. Despite what Environment Minister David Parker says, if enacted they will send some farmers broke, or at the least force the sale of productive dairy and sheep & beef land into pine forests. Either scenario is a big blow to employment, rural communities and regional economies.

Don’t just take our word for it. Local Government NZ has also said the economic consequences will be dire. As one example from their report, up to a third of the Waikato-Waipa catchment (which is about half of the Waikato region) currently in livestock (sheep, cattle, deer and horses) would be replaced by pine trees. LGNZ’s modelled cost estimates are $100 million, or an 11% loss of total profits derived from this land use change. That’s just one catchment.

Target the hotspots; pressure (and support) those regional councils which still haven’t got suitable regulations and discharge limits in place. To insist that by 2025 all the plans that communities have worked diligently on are re-done, at a cost of millions and millions of dollars to ratepayers, will just suck the momentum out of the good work that farmers, councils and others are already doing. The government’s proposals ignore the fact the key drivers of water quality vary from catchment to catchment. In some it is sediment, others E. Coli or one of the other containments. In some it’s a combination or in some, none. The ban on land use development – and that’s what it is – is a crude and blunt ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach. Intensification restrictions are needed in some catchments, and they’re coming into force. Blanket national rules risk stranding a whole generation of young farmers in a time warp.

New “bottom lines” for nitrogen and phosphorus (NOF numbers) will wind back production and hack at export earnings. What was the A (excellent) band in the last National Policy Statement is now suddenly the D band. The new bottom lines are so low that for phosphorus 10% of native and 40% of exotic forest monitoring sites don’t meet the proposed bottom lines, for pastoral farming monitoring sites (which often include small towns) about a third would be in breach. So why are farmers up in arms? They’re committed to the steady sustainability improvements already happening in many catchments, but not a set of proposals that put their family’s livelihoods, and the rural way of life, at substantial risk.

LAKES WEEKLY BULLETIN
CBD
by Miranda Spary
I was racing home to finish the last tiny bit of “Boy Swallows Universe” by Trent Dalton. It’s a shockingly good novel and really shocking as well. What rocked me to the core is that it is all based on his own childhood with a mother in jail and stepfather selling heroin. My childhood has been so very sheltered in comparison! Jiggling with impatience to get back to this horrible world of drugs and violence, I waited at the bottom of McEntyre’s Hill at the red light with nothing coming towards me - what on earth was the council doing approving that ridiculous hotel site on what is already such a dangerous bit of road? I asked the workmen why they couldn’t take the fence down and do all the work from the developer’s own land instead of blocking the main road like that, and was told they are widening that bit. What IS the point? It is simply not the place for a hotel and is there actually a need for another one? Imagine how much traffic a hotel there would generate, and as for the hundreds of houses they are planning in there as well… It’s much more relaxing reading about terrible things than seeing where you live get wrecked like that! Apparently there are a lot of people not registered to vote in the next local elections, so do make sure you get along and sort that - if you don’t vote, you have no right to complain. Or even better, put your hand up and stand for council yourself - it’s a totally thankless task and we need to be grateful to all the people who do have the courage and community spirit to take on such a huge job that eats up so much time and energy. I’m definitely not brave enough. All the same, there are so many terrific things happening around - spring is doing its delicious thing and the rain overnight has perked everything up enormously. I’m determined to win some prizes in the Arrowtown Spring Flower Show later this month - the battle of the blooms will be bloody and brilliant.The catalogue is online now on arrowtownspringshow.com - you have to wait a few seconds to be redirected. Being patient is a key ingredient in being a good gardener - I’m still trying to come to grips with that concept. I finally got along to see the new library at Frankton - it’s very ugly on the outside, but inside there is a team of my favourite people - librarians! What a friendly, helpful bunch they are in there and it’s great to see the library serving so many of the community’s needs - there are Spanish language story times, meditation classes, free charging sites for dangerously low mobile phones (EVERYONE needs those…) Libraries are an essential part of life and if you haven’t visited any of our local ones, you’re missing out on something marvellous. There was a beautiful funeral for the much loved Colin Batchelor who died this week - he was such a courteous, kind and gentle man - a real gentleman. Everyone is going to miss you a lot, dear Colin. The world really needs more gentlemen - such a pity that two of the world’s biggest English speaking countries’ leaders are lacking them. Miranda Spary is a tired, old, hasbeen columnist that we feel sorry for. She used to write a weekly book column in the old Queenstown Times which was read more for the local gossip in it than the book part. She is quite lazy and very grateful if readers send in ideas about what’s been happening locally on miranda@queenstown.co.nz

Whether supporting others, improving the environment, fundraising, responding to an emergency, supporting events, festivals, sports or the arts, there is a role out there for everyone. The benefits of volunteering are huge. Volunteers gain a sense of satisfaction, make new friendships, learn and share skills, improve their health and well-being and feel more connected to their community. It should also be really enjoyable! Volunteers strengthen community groups; bringing diversity, passion, skills, knowledge, capability, motivation, respect and much more. For the first time Volunteering Central is introducing a Queenstown based team member. Kirsty Miles is their first Queenstown based staff appointee and is available to meet with anyone wanting a face to face chat about volunteering. Kirsty is based at the Citizens Advice Bureau offices in Queenstown each Tuesday between 10am-2.30pm. Kirsty is a long time volunteer and since she was a teenager she has worked in a variety of jobs in the administration, marketing and education fields and always made the most of where she has lived in the world! “Having spent the past 3 years living in Queenstown, my sense of belonging in the community was definitely enhanced when I started voluntarily running the Wakatipu Girl Guides in 2016; which I still love. I am really excited about using my skills and energy to help develop Volunteering Central to reach it’s full potential in Queenstown which is their busiest and biggest hub!” “I’ve spent the last few weeks getting out and about meeting a range of organisations that involve volunteers and am now really enjoying meeting people who want to connect to others in their community through volunteering.” Kirsty says. If you’d like to chat to Kirsty about volunteering in your community email her on kirsty@volunteeringcentral.org.nz or call 027 506 5777. Kirsty is based at the CAB in Queenstown each Tuesday between 10am-2.30pm Citizens Advice Bureau (CAB) offices are at 44 Stanley Street

What’s Happening
Hooray! FILM. THE LION KING Don’t think the Lion King is just for children - it’s animated, but animation so clever that it’s hard to tell they aren’t real animals. It won’t be in cinemas much longer and it’s definitely worth seeing on the big screen.
Dorothy Browns Cinema 18 Buckingham St, Arrowtown Tickets: $12 - 18,50 from dorothybrowns.com
27th September, 1pm - 5:30pm Atheneum Hall, Arrowtown Admission $3, Children free
FILM. AMAZING GRACE A never been seen before recording of a live concert of Aretha Franklin. It’s recorded in her minister brother’s church in America and there are fascinating closeups of all the congregation in their 1972 churchgoing fashions and outsize Afros.
SHOW. SPRING FLOWER SHOW Keen gardeners get your secateurs and vases ready for this fabulous floral event. Enter the tiniest daffodil or hugest trillium and dare to beat the local flower arranging champions. It’s VERY competitive. The children’s section is well worth seeing too.
A common complaint in the district is that there aren’t enough cultural events happening, and an equally common complaint amongst artists, musicians, actors and other performers that there aren’t enough places to perform, and that it’s very difficult to get the message about where and when performances are on so that the necessary number of bums on seats happen. Pages like this one are rare and wonderful so three cheers for LWB!!! And three cheers for the Arrowtown Creative Arts Society. They are only just over two years old and have already attracted 150 members and the spring arts festival they organise has grown from a one weekend event to a three week gorge yourself silly on every facet of the art world - whether you fancy landscape design itself, or painting the landscape, hearing the expert Sir on the subject of “Taking the Mickey” - Sir Bob Jones, or you want to grab your guitar and join in with all the other local guitarists for a grand guitar jam, or dozens of other options, this October is really going to be a happy one for you. The best way to see the whole list before the tickets sell out is to join the ACAS - it’s only $35 per household for a whole year. As well as the Spring Festival, the organisers organise (that’s what organisers do) other brilliant events like opera in private gardens which are only available to ACAS members. The one in late summer this year was incredible - I always thought opera was just that wailing and booming business but it was witty and crazy and utterly fabulous. I’d happily have watched the whole show time and time again especially in such a beautiful setting. They also held a Ceilidh in the Arrowtown Hall where the biggest problem was trying to get the full tartan-clad house to leave at the end. We begged the band for more and more dances but finally we wore them and our exhausted feet out. Scottish dancing is ridiculously good fun. And I do know, but not sure if it is for public knowledge or not, that they are organising a sculpture walk at The Hills golf course with afternoon tea in the beautiful Andrew Patterson award winning clubhouse. So if you fancy a jolly good snoop into this very private world in the next month, here’s your chance. The very naughty opera singers had the whole picnic munching, wine sipping (swilling?) audience in fits of giggles.
Art News Great Southern TV is starting filming of “One Lane Bridge” a murder mystery dreamt up by local producer Phil Smith (the genius responsible for Eating Media Lunch, Remarkable Vets, The Casketeers to name just a few….) next month. The story of two duelling local farming families separated by, as you may have guessed, a one lane bridge. Filming will be happening all over the Wakatipu so keep an eye out for it - sounds intriguing.

Peak to Peak – An iconic event on a bluebird day.
by Casey Lucas-Quiad
The weather could not have been better on Saturday, when the 2019 edition of the David Reid Homes Peak to Peak multisport race kicked off. Beneath a bluebird sky, racers took off for the downhill ski leg and then descended the Remarkables Access Road on mountain bikes. Whether in relay teams, tandem teams, or as individuals, competitors in numbered bibs streaked across the bay in their kayaks and along the roads toward victory. Peak to Peak has always been a cherished event on locals’ calendars, one of the final events of the winter season. Acquired last year by 100% PURE Racing, the race is now in the hands of longtime Queenstown events runner Adrian Bailey, who was thrilled with how the day went. Bailey and his team were on hand at the finish line to welcome cyclists to the finish line after the grueling climb by bike from Arthur’s Point to the Coronet Peak base building. Changes to the race this year included the later start time, the later calendar date, and the expansion of several new categories. Of particular note was the new tandem category, which saw husband-and-wife teams as well as pairs of friends crossing the finish line
with hands held and big grins on their faces. There are far too many winners to list here, but full results can be seen at https://peaktopeak.nz/results/. After the prizegiving had wound down and the last few athletes downed their well-earned beers, race runner Bailey was pleased with the day’s results. “We’re ecstatic with how it went off,” he said. “[Peak to Peak] is always a big day. It’s iconic.” He was particularly pleased with the efforts of his volunteer team, commending their efforts at handling the much larger field of competitors. This year the number of racers swelled by 60% over last year. While some might have been wary at an iconic local event undergoing so many changes, the race looks to be in competent hands.

LEGEND OF THE WEEK Name: Megan Cleary What’s your role and how did you get into your position? I'm a beauty therapist. I really just copied my sister at college because she looked like she was having fun and here I am! How long in QT and why did you choose to live here? Lived in Queenstown for a year and a half... I actually followed my best friend here from Australia! Recommended must-do activity in and around QT? Definitely the bungy if you're an adrenaline junkie like myself! And of course Onsen hotpools because we’re the best. What's your favorite place to eat? Big Fig! How would someone get your special attention? By singing to me... I’m actually a sucker when it comes to live music! What has been your best/worst date? Best date was probably going to watch Dara O'Briain at the Sydney Opera House - I love a comedian! The worst date has to be when I was taken shoe shopping on a first date.. AND THEN he puts me on Facetime to his Portuguese mum living in Portugal. (I hate shopping and found the whole thing uncomfortable) Who is your inspiration? Why? My dad. Because he’s an absolute legend. What's the best bad decision you ever made? Working in Ibiza - it’s probably taken a few years off me! What's on your bucket list? To go to the moon! What is the first thing you notice about a person? Definitely a smile! What is something you like to do that your mates would probably consider ‘’weird’’ if they knew? Blow drying my body when I’m cold - I don’t understand why more people don’t do it if I’m honest! If you had to describe yourself in 5 words, what would they be? Chatty, outgoing, friendly, ambitious, independent! What is your most useless skill? And your most valuable? Touching my nose with my tongue is my most useless party trick! But I can talk the hind legs off a donkey! What is that one joke that you cannot tell without laughing hard? What kind of bees make milk? BOOBEES (I don’t actually find this hysterically funny - I just couldn’t think of anything so my housemate just told me this one) What’s your best piece of advice? Treasure the memories that no one can steal.
