Getting to the bottom of summer stink
From Page 1
Mrs Haylock says she can see this being a really long and tedious situation – the community liaison person has left (for which she takes some responsibility, having sent them endless emails) “and they don’t have the manpower to communicate effectively with the community,” (which became evident during the discharge debacle).
While she is not knocking on doors, Mrs Haylock says the Stop the Stench petition is still there for people who want to have a
voice in making a change to the infrastructure.
“I'm sure everyone is aware Wellington Water needs to sort their stuff out. There’s constantly leaking pipes and constant odours – I've had to step around burst sewerage sites on Muritai Rd pavement. I feel sorry for the people whose homes are affected.
“Everything needs upgrading – we’re well behind in that regard. We need pressure for a massive upgrade, which is seriously lacking. The amount of water we must waste as well…!
She says: “I'm continuing to nag at them and hope others can do the same thing. I would love us to be seen as shining stars of water treatment.

Bronwyn Mary Griffiths
25 July 1948 – 15 July 2021
Best known locally for her productive garden, her hens and her English muffins, Bronwyn was also a nationally-recognised weaver and spinner who in her younger years had been a successful vintage trader at Auckland’s Cook St Market.
From her beloved father, Bronwyn had inherited Raynaud’s Phenomenon, a circulatory disorder which led eventually to the amputation of several fingers on each hand; she also developed scoliosis at a young age. Always stoical, she had become increasingly frail following the couple’s move to Auckland in late 2017.
Born in Wellington, Bronwyn was the only child of accountant Raymond Griffiths and his wife Eunice, a farmer’s daughter. Her mother’s family lived at 1 Radium Street Martinborough, where great-grandfather Alexander McLeod owned a grocery and drapery shop, then a boot factory, eventually manufacturing Radium Boot Polish.
The family moved to Auckland in 1952, where Bronwyn later attended Takapuna Grammar and Westlake Girls’ High School.
She was deeply affected by the arrival in 1957 of grandmother Margaret Wall, whose husband was killed crossing the main road in Featherston after posting Bronwyn a birthday card – a death her grandmother blamed on the girl.
More welcome was newly-widowed paternal grandfather George Griffiths, who fostered her interest in cultivating an extensive vegetable garden. Her father’s reading to her as a child led to a lifelong love of books, but Bronwyn’s other memories of those years were uncomfortable – with grandparents sharing the house, loud music was not tolerated and having friends home difficult.
In 1972 Bronwyn began occupational therapy training in Petone, living in a cottage her parents bought in Buick Street, before moving to Bidwill Street, Mt. Cook. Here she could live the kind of life her peers enjoyed: parties, pop music played loudly on a stereo, the chance to engage with life in the city she came to regard as her spiritual home.
Bronwyn met David, a sculptor who worked nights in a dairy factory, on a study trip to Auckland in August 1974. She was invited to dinner by his Freemans Bay flatmate, whom she’d met at a jumble sale. David was too tired to go out; he and Bronwyn stayed home, conversing long after the others retired.
They kept in touch; he travelled to Wellington on the overnight train to be met by Bronwyn on her bicycle at the railway station. They walked everywhere; their relationship blossomed. She took him to his first jumble sale, at the old St. Patrick’s College hall opposite Basin Reserve.
Returning to Auckland, they lived in the Freemans Bay flat, enjoying Sunday organ recitals at the Town Hall and excursions out of town by car. On one such trip, at her aunt and

uncle’s Pukekawa farm, David proposed.
As Bronwyn was opposed to a church marriage with the surrounding hoopla, they had a short ceremony at Auckland Registry Office on 20 February 1975, honeymooning overnight at Warkworth Hotel before returning to town, where David watched a cricket test match at Eden Park, and Bronwyn went to her Cook Street stall.
Bronwyn had an acute sense of style, and knew exactly what she wanted to sell. Their Mt Eden flat was within walking distance of the dairy factory, and Auckland’s jumble sales. She spent her weeks washing, ironing and repairing clothes in preparation for Fridays and Saturdays, her stall so successful she earned more in two days than David did in a week.
In 1975, they made their first trip overseas. Arriving in London they found accommodation in West Hampstead, and explored the city’s art galleries, museums and markets. At Portobello Road they bought a 1964 three-tonne ex GPO Morris maintenance truck they named Basil and headed off to the West Country, living like gypsies in the back of the truck and finding the kindness of strangers at every turn.
When an art school friend of David’s offered a flat in Amsterdam they sold the truck outside Australia House, piled their belongings into a Citroen 2CV6 van and headed to Harwich for the Holland ferry. Within walking distance of Stedelijk Art Gallery and the Rijksmuseum, close to markets, dealer galleries, cafes and restaurants, they thoroughly enjoyed Amsterdam. But the winter was too much for Bronwyn, so they headed south to the coast of Portugal, for three weeks’ living on goat’s milk and vegetables, fruit and fresh market fish before heading back to England then home.
Other trips would follow, exploring the British countryside while working in youth hostels, where Bronwyn developed her love of growing and cooking vegetarian food on industrial scale Aga cookers, and keeping hens.
Returning in 1980, the couple lived in Paekakariki for three years before moving to Hinau St, Eastbourne, when David was appointed director of the Settlers’ Museum.
Once again, Bronwyn created a garden from scratch, centred around a long-established plum tree and several chook runs. The washhouse shelves were filled in summer with preserved and bottled fruit, and surplus relish and chutney sold at the newly-established Eastbourne Market. On her beloved coal range, Bronwyn made the best English muffins ever, for about ten years.
Inside, on three large looms, she wove rag rugs, runners, cushion covers and place mats, to sell on commission and at public galleries. The bulk of her raw material was sourced from op shops.
The last book Bronwyn was reading –unfinished when she died – was the children’s classic The Secret Garden…which is where David imagines her, “dwelling amongst her seedlings, vegetables, plants, and all the living creatures that have inhabited her gardens” by

Happy 100, Jeanne Sampson!
Eastbourne’s newest centenarian joined the WRNS because, having started her working life at the beginning of the war as a rest home nurse, she decided she didn’t want to spend her war years “looking after old people”.
Fronting up to the Admiralty, Jeanne Kilpatrick was assigned to Bletchley Park, where she spent the next four years working eight-hour shifts on enormous machines – 12-15 to start with, building up to 70 – in small huts in the grounds, cracking the encrypted enemy codes that would hasten the end of WW2. At the time, they had no concept of what they were doing.
Billeted at first with local families, the Wrens got a better deal when the service requisitioned Wavendon, a large country house, where they were well looked after. Mrs Sampson always felt it was unfair that the civil servants who made up the balance of the 8000 female workers kept separate, living with local people.
“Bletchley was a horrid little place,” she says, “but nothing’s hard when you’re young.” Though none of the girls knew each other to begin with, they all got on, “because that was what you did”.
Churchill, who visited Bletchley, referred to the staff as “my lovely geese that lay the golden eggs and never cackle”. As a treat, they were sent to London to spend time at the War Rooms, his rabbit warren beneath the Admiralty. She found the air quality awful and would take her lunch across to St James’s Park to walk in the fresh air.
Mrs Sampson came to Eastbourne in 1951 with her Burma veteran husband Oliver. They raised two sons, first in Matai Tce (“being young and English we built for the view”) then down on the flat in Karamu St, in a house she designed herself around her ailing husband’s needs. He died in 1999.
Now living in Woburn Home, Mrs Sampson turned 100 on 12 January, a couple of weeks after receiving signed cards from the Queen and PM Jacinda Ardern. Bound by the Official Secrets Act, she and her fellow codecrackers never talked of what they had done until the 1970s, when the UK government released them from secrecy.

Bard in the Yard is back and set to go ahead
With much optimism in these uncertain times and years of experience, the Butterfly Creek Theatre Troupe (BCTT) is bringing The Bard to our (Muritai School) Yard for the 26th time, with its now traditional outdoor summer production (inside if wet).
A strong cast of experienced hands and exciting new talent will perform Shakespeare’s most popular comedy, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, on the evenings of February 24th, 25th and 26th, and again the following week on March 3rd, 4th and 5th.
The play revolves around a forthcoming marriage and a conflict between four lovers but with several subplots, including forest fairies manipulating the humans’ emotions.
“Although this will be a romantic, magical production, it will also explore the play’s eroticism and darker tones of predatory sexuality. In much of Shakespeare, there is often a thin line between the world of fairies and that of witches,” director Anne Manchester says.
She is delighted with the “amazing cast” she has been able to assemble. “They are a talented bunch, creative and really committed.” Having learnt their lines over the festive break, they are now in the middle of an intense six-week rehearsal period, exploring the play’s comic depths.
Several actors play dual roles, including troupe stalwarts John Marwick as Theseus/ Oberon and Lian Butcher as Hipployta/Titania. Four of the mechanicals/clowns also play fairies. BCTT first mounted A Midsummer Night’s Dream 14 years ago, directed by Florence McFarlane. She plays First Fairy in this production.
“I felt it was time to revisit the play,” Anne
says. She is giving it a timeless setting, with some New Zealand allusions, but otherwise it is a traditional production, contrasting neatly with the modern take, Lysander’s Aunty, featuring in the Aotearoa New Zealand Festival of the Arts. “See the real thing first,” says Anne.
An extra treat for the audience will be live music to accompany the play. Local music teacher and performer Merilyn Moonen has composed a musical score specially for the play, which she will perform using a variety of instruments including a rinkelboom percussion instrument, a medieval-style hurdy gurdy, recorders, an ocarina, shakers and drums – a veritable one-woman orchestra!
Tickets will be on sale from early February from Eventfinda, the Artisan Co-op Store in Rimu Street, Eastbourne, or at the door. Prices $17 adults, $14 concessions. Attendees will need to be able to present their Covid passport and to wear a mask during the performance.
Under the new red light system, audience numbers will need to be restricted to 50 per night.

WHAT'S ON
Garden Stuff with Sandy Lang
URBAN FORESTS
January/February: Mid/late summer. On sandy soils, water and fertilise little-and-often. Sand retains little water and minerals. Gardening in Eastbourne is essentially hydroponics…! Increase soil organic matter (tree chip mulch) to gradually (years) increase retention of both.
Forests: These days we hear lots about forests and climate. They store CO2 and emit O2 (good) and provide habitat for countless species (so deforestation = despeciation), cool and moisten the air, reduce runoff (so deforestation = flooding). According to the FAO, half the world's forests have been destroyed in the last 70 years (expanding farms and cities - too many people). Nowadays, forests cover 30% of the land surface, previously most of it. Leaving aside rising CO2 from burning fossil fuels (coal, oil), deforestation is the next major contributor to climate change.
Your micro-forest: Looked at from above, 30% of urban Eastbourne is green. A lot of that is trees. So ‘forest’ is not entirely lacking from our little bits of urbania. Think twice before removing your garden tree…
•Your tree provides habitat (food, shelter) for many wild species.
•Your tree anchors the soil, reducing risk of slips/erosion on a sloping site.
•Your tree affects your living environment. The wind shelter it provides is calculated to reduce your power use by 10% - you need less heating in winter, less cooling in summer.
•Your own ‘thermal comfort’ depends on (1) air temperature, (2) air movement (chill factor), (3) air humidity (skin evaporation) and (4) your net radiation environment. It may surprise you that (1) is usually least important and the others usually more important, while (4) is usually most important.
•On a hot summer’s day, try a comfy chair under your tree. You will be much cooler - a much reduced level of net radiation - the temperature of the shaded grass beneath will be ~2°C cooler than air temperature (evaporative cooling), the leaves of the canopy above you will be ~5°C cooler than air temperature (evaporative cooling). A dense canopy absorbs about 95+% of sunlight so is much shadier than a shade sail (which lets some light through and heats up well above air temperature) or a veranda (which heats up well above air temperature). And neither of these allow wafts of cooling breeze as a tree does.
Weighing in at just 6 grams Tītipounamu/Rifleman is New Zealand’s smallest bird and one of the few wren species surviving in NZ since the introduction of so many destructive hungry mammals. We are lucky to have a population of them in East Harbour Regional Park. Though they are considered to be more comfortable at higher altitudes, they have been attracting attention in the media recently because of a nesting pair discovered in the hills behind Parliament after recent reintroduction to Wellington, via Zealandia ecosanctuary from a population of birds caught in the Rēmutaka forest. They can also sometimes be seen as low at the beech forest behind the Pavilion in Days Bay. Wellington photographer Don Laing captured this image in the park earlier this year.
Tītipounamu don’t appear in great numbers in many of our bird counts probably because of their extremely high pitched call, making them very difficult to hear, especially as we get older and our capacity to discern higher pitched noises dissipates. So if you wish to hear or spot them it’s recommended to ask for the company of a young person to join you in your search. It’s important to sit still and quiet for up to five minutes, listen intently and watch the canopy for tiny movements, a great test in patience and attention span so perhaps it can be considered a form of forest bathing? If you wish to know what they sound like before you go or even when you’re in the forest you can look up the link: https://nzbirdsonline.org.nz/ species/rifleman#bird-sounds
Titipounamu in the Northern Forest—Don Laing. underside of branches with what seems to be some sort of spiderman super power, looking for small insects as they move. Such tiny, busy birds need to feed constantly to survive as they carry no fat reserves despite their feathered marshmallow appearance. As with many birds the females are slightly larger than the males.
They nest in small cavities, making them susceptible to introduced mammals that share the same spaces. This year a nest has been found on the Otago peninsula in a possum trap that has had to be secured without disturbance to the nest, something that proved a stressful task for the trap operator.
They are a very rewarding bird to watch as they dart around and walk upside down, up the
Would you be interested in a guided tour into the forest? MIRO would like to take a “forest foray” trip on a Sunday afternoon in March if there are enough people interested (15 max.), please contact Secretary@miro.org. nz to register your interest. Steep hill climbing will of course be unavoidable so a good level of fitness will be required.
