By Chris Tobin Why the turnaround after three years of pain and

agony and why do you want to apologise now when you could have from the start?

These are some of the questions Pat and Pam Heagney, the parents of Matthew Heagney, 24, want to ask Kevin King, 52, a former Blenheim bar manager.

King has admitted to a charge of manslaughter over the death of Matthew Heagney outside King’s Shapeshifters Bar in the early hours of August 23, 2009 - over three years after the incident.

On Monday, the first day of a 10 day retrial in the Wellington High Court before Justice Stephen Kos and a jury, King had denied the charge.

However, in a surprising reversal on the third day, Wednesday, he changed his plea to guilty.

Continued page 2.

“He (Matthew) is the true victim; he’s a guy who’s not going to have a family......he deserved to have safety in his country and he didn’t get it.” - Pat Heagney, Matthew Heagney’s father

Matthew Heagney, 24, who died outside the Shapeshifters bar in Blenheim over three years ago.

“It’s been such a long time, three years and I can’t under-stand the turnaround when up to now he’s completely denied any involvement, Pat Heagney said yesterday.

“In three years he’s never apologised to the family and now he wants to: I can’t under-stand that.

King had not approached the Heagney family.

His desire to apologise has come via his lawyer.

“Why didn’t he do it three years ago? Mr Heagney asked.

“He would have saved a lot of pain and heart-break.”

Police alleged King rendered Matthew Heagney semi-con-scious in a headlock after Mr Heagney was removed from the bar.

During subsequent events, Mr Heagney was dropped on his

head and later died. Mr and Mrs Heagney attend-

ed King’s earlier trial as well as King’s subsequent appeal and Mr Heagney was in Wellington for this week’s retrial.

However Mrs Heagney could not attend. Her mother died on Monday and she had to remain in Blenheim.

Mr Heagney said the court case had been an ordeal.

“It’s hard to see your son outside a bar dead.

They showed the CCTV (closed circuit TV) in the court room.

To see him (Matthew) coming out of the bar and next thing lying on the ground motionless,

practically dead was very hard.” Mr Heagney said he and his

wife were relieved but they still felt they had lost a son unneces-sarily.

He did not like the focus being on King either; it was his son who deserved justice.

“We’re victims but he (Mat-thew) is the true victim; he’s a guy who’s not going to have a family and his father and mother.

“He is the true victim and he deserved to have safety in his country and he didn’t get it.”

Mr Heagney believed King should be imprisoned “which I don’t think he will get,” he said.

Lansdowne Park on Wednesday. A signals platoon from 2/1st Battalion of

the Royal NZ Infantry Regiment based at Burnham Military Camp was stationed there temporarily as part of a week long military

exercise in the Nelson/Marlborough area. Platoon commander Sergeant Shaun

Moore said most of the unit’s training away from Burnham was done at Tekapo so it made a change to come to Blenheim.

“It’s more challenging here with the hills too,” he said.

Police have released the name of the man they believe died in a fire in a vehicle parked near Kaikoura.

Police believe he is Adam Tole-man, aged 28 years. Mr Toleman is a citizen of the United Kingdom who has New Zealand residency. His next of kin have been advised.

By Chris Tobin The first ever international

conference on domestic violence hosted by Women’s Refuge NZ will be held in Blenheim later this month.

Overseas expert speakers at the conference include Professor Michael P. Mitchel, an emeritus professor from Penn State Uni-versity in the United States, whose work has helped shape his nation’s

response to domestic violence at state and national level.

Marlborough Women’s Refuge manager Rachel Black said the conference would follow the national annual meeting that would be held at Omaka Marae. The conference will be held at The Winery Riverlands.

“It’s great for the Marlborough community and I know a lot of people will stay on and have a look

around,” she said. “Hopefully it will heighten

everyone’s enthusiasm for the work and it’s also an opportunity to meet like-minded people.”

Other keynote speakers com-prise Marai Larasi, the executive director of Imkaan, a UK-based national organisation dedicated to challenging violence against black, minority ethnic and refugee women and girls; Professor Bob

Pease of Deakon University in Australia, Professor Julia Tolmie of Auckland University and Judge Peter Boshier, the principal family court judge.

Mrs Black said the public were welcome to attend the conference to hear the various speakers.

The conference, Whanu of to-morrow – Building Safer Futures, will be held on October 26, 27.

Major conference coming to Blenheim

By Annabelle LatzEthnicity, age and back-

ground proved no boundary for a wonderful day at Mistletoe Bay last Sunday.

The Marlborough Newcom-ers’ Network and migrant families spent a day in the sun and water, thanks to a first time joint initiative between Zonta and Spring Creek Lions Club.

More than 120 people, rep-resenting 23 nationalities, at-tended the excellent day.

“The day’s outing was an outstanding success and will be talked about as a memorable and educational trip in terms of a visit to a sustainable Eco Vil-lage facility and a valuable op-portunity for our newcomers to make new friends and engage with the sponsoring entities,” said Margaret Western from Marlborough Newcomers’ Network.

As community relations and co-ordinator for the network, she said it was wonderful to have the support of Zonta and Spring Creek Lions Club, as

well as Sport Tasman, Beach Comber and Mistletoe Bay Trust, for the success of the day.

“It’s not easy for new people coming here, and the Newcom-ers Network is a supporting entity to help them. It connects people so they have a sense of belonging.”

Organised children’s activi-ties and group activities took place throughout the day, in-cluding a detour on the boat to Double Cove to feed the tame fish.

“It was seeing the children playing together, where lan-guage and ethnic background made absolutely no difference to them enjoying each other, in the wonderful environment in the Sounds,” said Bev Moore, president of Zonta.

Bev said it was a wonderful community project, and hoped to see it become an annual event.

“It’s about introducing peo-ple, and there was number and address swapping happening during the day.”

the rangitane cultural centre in grovetown is nearing completion and is set for a december opening date. Photo supplied.

She said, before the Grovetown Community Hall on the land was demolished to make way for the centre, Labour weekend had been discussed as an opening date, timed to coincide with a Rangitane festival.

The area holds strong cultural significance for Rangitane.

The tribe cemetery is in Grovetown, and the land has been heavily involved in Treaty of Waitangi settlements.

“It’s part of the heartland.“Part of the vision was to build a meeting

place and open it to service ourselves and

the community.“It’s only now that we’ve got a place that

we’ve been able to fulfill that.”After Treaty of Waitangi settlements in

2010, the land at 3 Fell St could be developed, and the move was made to establish the cultural centre.

“It was to replace the old Grovetown Com-munity Hall and also to ensure, as out kids grow up, they have those connections.

“It’s about community and ensuring that we have a place to share in those happy occasions.”

NZ Car of the Year finalists

By Robbie ParkesA Blenheim woman has made big

steps in establishing a successful business career after winning a top award in an Australasian competition.

University of Canterbury student and former Redwoodtown School pupil Pip Widdon, 25, won the creativ-ity and innovation award in the final round of the CPA Big Break Project in Melbourne last week.

The Australasian tertiary business competition pitted teams against one another in a Dragon’s Den-style environment, presenting their cases to an expert panel.

The panel included representatives from Make-A-Wish Foundation, the company that entrants were tasked with creating a business report for on how to develop a sustainable business model.

The ‘dragons’ however, were not as fierce as Sir Bob Jones or Annette Presley from the New Zealand version of the popular television show.

“It was quite different because we were actually looking at a business model to help improve their company rather than pitching an idea and look-ing for investments,” said Pip.

“They were really appreciative of all our support.”

Pip represented New Zealand in the Australian-dominated competi-tion, after she came out on top in the national stage of the event earlier in the year, beating 144 teams to make the finals.

The competition, organised by ac-counting group CPA Australia, was run for the first time in New Zealand this year.

Pip said the win had given her more profile in kickstarting her career.

“It’s just great to be recognised and represent New Zealand, and have that opportunity to compete with Australia.

“I’m really into consulting and look-ing at businesses and how a business can improve.”

She said she is also interested in the not-for-profit sector, and helping to improve those causes, so the Make-A-Wish Foundation challenge was a fairly suitable project.

Queensland University students Samuel Senior and James Roberston won the top prize of $20,000, with another $50,000 going towards their institution.

By Robbie ParkesThe Rangitane Cultural Centre in Grove-

town is on target to be completed for Labour weekend, but will open on the first weekend of December.

“We’re looking good, we’re all very happy, but we’ll be working up to the date,” said Robinson Construction Ltd contracts manager Mark Watson.

Robinson Construction has been under-taking the $1.7 million project since early April.

There is still a lot of subcontracting work to do, he said.

Rangitane chairperson Judith MacDonald said there had been some initial confusion about the opening date as the building con-tract for the project would end on Labour weekend, but the facilities still had to be prepared for use.

The centre still requires exterior landscape work, and the building needs to be fitted out with equipment, including tables, chairs, plates as the facility could sleep 45 people.

“We just don’t want to open it too early,” she said.

In terms of an opening ceremony, Judith said they are not quite sure what shape it will take at this stage, but they think there will be a dawn blessing to meet the cultural needs of the tribe.


By Annabelle LatzSong, dance, action and

fun will create the vibrant musical production on stage next week.

School children represent-ing Marlborough Home-school Players will present ‘How the Grinch Found Christmas’ at the Nativity Hall, Alfred St.

As an adapted version of the Dr Seuss book ‘How the Grinch Stole Christmas,’ this musical production will involve a cast of children representing 15 homeschool families in Marlborough.

“We have taken the general concept of the book,” said Blenheim homeschooling mum Linda Lloyd, who has written and produced the

play with fellow Blenheim homeschooling mum Ana Pahono.

“We have written in parts that use all of the children’s talents,” said Linda.

The production has been a term-long project involving weekly rehearsals, and full time rehearsals during these school holidays.

Niki Boon, who home-schools her children in Ra-rangi, praised all the young ones for working so hard together, to help make all the props and costumes.

“They’ve all done the most insane amount of work, it’s just great,” she said.

Niki said homeschooling families network well to-gether to share their skills

and spread education.Within families, there is

also huge support when it comes to daily tasks.

“Because you can’t do all the chores, and homeschool all yourself!” she said.

Ana said this production was all about getting the children involved as much as possible, which happens easily with homeschooling.

“It’s covered so many areas of the curriculum.”

She said all everyday ac-tivities are educational, that

transform into her family’s ‘school system,’ from feed-ing the goats to doing daily chores.

“It’s a lifestyle choice,” she said.

Ana said homeschooling was about having flexibil-ity throughout the day, and building education around learning together as a family.

“It’s holistic,” she said.Her husband Andrew, who

teaches part-time design classes at Marlborough Boys’ College, said people

choose to homeschool their children for a variety of reasons, with each family tailor-making an education system that best suits their own children.

“It’s about quality educa-tion, and there are so many positives,” he said.

There are about 40 fami-lies involved in the home-schooling community in Marlborough, and parents swap talents to groups of children focused education in different sporting and

cultural areas. “The kids don’t miss out on

anything,” she said. The musical production

will be on at the Nativity Hall next Thursday, October 19, at 10.30am and 6pm, and next Friday, October 19, at 7pm. Tickets are $2, children under five years-old are free.

Programmes will be $5, and ice creams will be avail-able for purchase during the evening performances at the interval.

Home schooled students take to the stage

Dear Ed,There is an odd link between

the King Salmon case and the recreational set net ban along the South Island’s east coast.

Set netting is banned not because of, but for fear of, dolphins getting entangled.

Here’s the link. Dolphin entanglements have

happened at Marlborough Sounds salmon farms.

There was evidence in June 2012 presented to the EPA hearing describing the deaths of two dusky dolphins (1999) entangled in King

Salmon’s farms, then a Hector’s dolphin (2005),two dusky dolphins in 2011 and a dusky dolphin in 2012.

King Salmon admitted also that two seals were trapped inside their salmon farm for several months.

If government bans recreational set nets on the imagined pos-sibility of dolphin entanglements, shouldn’t it ban salmon farming because of actual proven dolphin deaths?

mistake which they will regret

Archaeologists have shown that ancient man developed the ability to produce cutting blades of an extreme degree of sharpness from volcanic glass.The prismatic glass blade is infinitely sharper than a honed steel edge, and these blades can be pro-

duced in a wide variety of shapes and sizes. It is therefore suggested that this type of blade may find an appropriate use in special areas of modern surgery.The technique of produc-ing these blades was re-discovered only 12 years ago!

Everything seal and sea lion-related was in the programme for Conservation Kids New Zealand’s latest workshop at the weekend.

More than 60 children attended the Seal and Sea Lion Day at the Dolphin Watch & Nature Tours office in Picton on Sunday.

Two groups of children, from junior ages to senior, took part in the day’s activities.

These included an education slide-show about the animals, a fur seal game to catch chocolate fish, and even producing some playdough versions of the mammals.

Highlights included the seal conga line where it was compulsary to bark and waddle like the animals - parents included.

The day ended with a ‘What’s the Answer’ quiz where the kids worked as a team to answer ques-tions on what they had learnt.

At the end of the day, all the children took home a seal colour-ing competition and The Seal Deal posters and brochures provided by the Department of Conservation.

A few misconceptions were cleared up by teaching the kids

Seals and sea lions take centre stage

what is normal for a seal or sea lion.

It is normal for New Zealand fur Sseals to snort, cough and regur-gitate food, to look like they are

crying and to drift in the waves. These behavious typically cause

a lot of concern from children when watching the seals.

Pup also happily spend time

alone while their mothers fish.New Zealand sea lions are in

the highest threat category for endangerment in the country, along with the Kakapo and the

Maui Dolphin.For anyone who would like to

Trips down memory lane were plentiful at the combined rest home dance last Friday afternoon.

Held at the nurses’ hall next to Wairau Hospital, the annual event has just reached its tenth birthday.

About 100 participants from Bethsaida Rest Home and Hos-pital, Ashwood Park Retirement Village, Springlands Lifestyle Village, Redwood Lifestyle Care and Village, and Waterlea Resthome all joined for a midday session of dancing and socialis-ing.

It coincided with the Interna-

tional Celebration of the Older Person.

Caregivers and residents en-joyed Fox Trot tunes like ‘Send me the pillow’ and ‘Your cheating heart’, and The Gypsy Tap tunes of ‘Marching through Georgia’ and “Isle of Capris.’

They were performed by Pam and Terry Price, who were playing the piano and piano accordion.

“It’s the first time I’ve been, it’s really good,” said Harold Heffer from Waterlea Rest Home.

Heather Gray from Ashwood Park was enjoying the day out.

“Well, just the music, and seeing everyone joining in is great, it’s

that sort of thing that everyone can enjoy.”

Eleanor Smith used to perform as a dancer at rest homes as a youth living in the United States.

“There’s life in this old girl yet!” she said.

Betty Hope from Bethsaida Rest Home and Hospital said being at the dance reminded her how healthy she is.

“It made me realise how lucky I am.”

“It’s good to all get together,” said Lois McMaster, who was there with Colin McMaster, they were there from the Ashwood villas.

people are among those who want to join Prince Charles for his birthday party in the ballroom at Government House next month.

Government House spokes-man Antony Paltridge said people from Tasman and Marlborough were among the more than 1000 who had applied for 64 invitations to attend the party at Govern-ment House, Wellington, on November 14.

“They’ve come from all over New Zealand,” he said.

Those attending were not required to bring gifts but they would have to pay their

own travel and accomodation costs if they were coming from outside Wellington

Mr Paltridge said the oldest who had applied was over 100 years of age. The age require-ment was 18 years and above.

The Prince of Wales and his wife, the Duchess of Cornwall, are visiting the country be-tween November 10 and 16 as part of the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee celebrations.

The Governor General Sir Jerry Mateparae’s birthday is also on November 14.

The successful party attend-ees will be decided by a ballot which will be held later this month. Applications closed at 5pm on Wednesday.

By Robbie ParkesBeach Volleyball in the region is set to grow after Marlborough Volleyball applied for and have been granted a funding partnership with KiwiSport.The grant is part of a national incentive to inject funding into the regions, aimed at getting more school-aged children participating in organised sport.Marlborough players and international beach volleyball representatives Greg and Micah Lindsay-Brown have been heavily involved in the sport in the region.Funding will go towards coaching and workshops hosted by Greg, a coach at a national level, with Micah assisting where she can.Micah said there is a specific amount of money being granted, but it depends on how many hours they estimate they will train people for, and how much they will actually need.“The purpose of it is so we can get younger people involved in schools.The aim is to provide younger genera-tions with a solid base for them to start playing, but also players and parents looking to get involved in the coaching side.“If we’re the only two people who know how to train others, it’s not going to grow.”Micah said interest is growing in Marlborough.

“There’s a big big pool of players now, we can sort of pick and choose who we play with.”In November 2010, two volleyball courts at Lansdowne Park were estab-lished to meet a growing need for new facilities.“They’re phenomenally good.“We’re really lucky for a small region to have such a good facility.”Micah said the courts, having very deep sand, can be challenging.But if you can play in that sand, you can play anywhere, she said.The proposed development of Lansdowne Park to include more facilities to support growing sports such as softball, will only add to beach volleyball, said Micah.She said Marlborough Volleyball have been crucial to the growth of Beach Volleyball in the region.“They’re excellent, they’re probably the most proactive club I’ve been as-sociated with.”“I think Nelson is considered the beach volleyball capital in the South Island, but we’d like Marlborough to be the best.”A schedule of the practices and coach-ing sessions being taken by Greg and Micah are available.There is a player muster on Monday, October 15 at 4pm, upstairs at Stadium 2000.

Grant set to boost beach volleyball

Beach volleyballer Micah Lindsay-Brown and husband Greg Lindsay-Brown will be holding beach volleyball c o a c h i n g s e s s i o n s a n d workshops to help grow the sport in the region.

SunThe

By Robbie ParkesKeen foodies looking to make

the most of their gardens will find inspiration when guest chef Ruth Pretty heads a masterclass for Hunter’s Garden Marlborough next month.

The Te Horo-based chef and author has attended the annual event before, and is giving Marlburians insight into how to best utilise ingredients grown in their own backyard.

“Hot Nights, Cool Salads,” takes heed of the summer feel, making the most of fresh salad greens and herbs.

“And we will be utilising the best of what Marlborough has to offer,”

she said.“I think people will come away with

dishes that will be reasonably simple to prepare and will definitely have that ‘wow’ factor.”

The food will be matched with nice, “summery” wines from Hunters.

Of course, New Zealand King Salmon will not be left off the menu either.

“It’s beautiful, it’s the salmon we use all the time.

“It’s exported all over the world, and in many countries it is the salmon of choice.”

She has used it in Japan, China, the

UK, New York, to much praise.Despite being a garden festival,

Ruth said cooking and gardening are a good mix.

“It seems to go hand in hand, anyone who’s interested in gardening usually likes to cook too.”

Ruth hosts “Hot Nights, Cool Sal-ads” on Friday, November 9 at the Marlborough Civic Theatre.

This is followed by a garden fete at Seymour Square on Sunday, where Ruth and her team will sell products, and herbs and plants from the Ruth Pretty Kitchen Shop.

Hot nights and cool salads on the menu

Christmas is only months away so if you want home grown new potatoes ready in time, now is the time to get them planted.

Potatoes are a meal in themselves - they are high in fibre, rich in vitamin C and B and have more protein and iron than any other vegetable.

Plus, they are not hard to grow, especially with new varieties that mature quickly and are disease resistant.

How to grow:Choose a very sunny sheltered area in

your garden where the soil is well drained. Add plenty of compost, peat or well rotted

organic material before planting.Plant your seed potatoes in furrows about

10cm deep.Early maturing varieties are spaced 25cm

apart and main crop varieties 35cm apart. Space the rows between furrows 80-100cm apart, lay the sprouted seed potato in the furrow and cover with soil, taking care not to damage the shoots.

As shoots appear, mound soil around them to protect the new growth. Mounding is essential as potatoes form on the stem of the shoots. Mounding the soil prevents

developing potatoes from “greening”. Continue mounding until the potatoes start to flower and growth slows down. Mounds should be kept weed free.

Keep the soil moist, especially at flower-ing time and water between the mounds rather than on the foliage as potatoes are susceptible to blight which is spread by water splash.

Early varieties are ready for harvest when the flowers are fully open, approximately 3-4 months after planting (add another month for sprouting before hand).

Main crop varieties should not be dug until the foliage has completely died down.

Use a fork to dig potatoes, taking care not to damage the tubers as damaged tubers will not keep for long.

As soon as the potatoes have been dug, store them in a sack or paper bag in a cool, dark, well ventilated place. Do not leave potatoes exposed to light after they have been dug.

For new potatoes at Christmas time, the best varieties to plant now are Swift, Rocket, Cliffs Kidney, Jersey Benne, Maris Anchor and Ilam Hardy. So, start sprouting now!

And don’t forget to plant your peas at the same time!

Plant potatoes now for Christmas Gardening Tips

Tomato seasonHow to grow your best to-

mato crop this year .Tomato seeds germinate

readily.Sow seeds in trays, punnets

or pots, either indoors or in a glasshouse from late August or from now on in pots outdoors.

In trays, sow 5cm apart. If using plastic punnets, sow 6-8 seeds in each.

Or sow in individual pots, with a 5cm layer of seed-raising mix on top of potting mix.

Always buy fresh seed-raising mix, it's worth the investment to ensure your plants get off to a good start.

Seed-raising mix is sterile and is a blend of peat/fine bark and pumice for drainage.

Plus soil fungicide to prevent diseases and enough fertiliser for early growth.

Press down the seed-raising

mix and moisten with a spray mister before sowing.

As tomato seeds are large, they are easy to handle.

They don't need to be buried, just set on the surface with a light sprinkling of seed-raising mix to just cover.

From now on, your seeds only need two things - mois-ture and warmth.

You can cover trays with a clear plastic bag to create a glasshouse effect, but ensure the plastic isn't touching the seed-raising mix.

Tomato seeds take on aver-age 10 days to germinate.

They hate getting a chill, so starting them off inside your house may be a good idea.

Seedlings need light as well as warmth, so windowsills are a good spot if you don't mind the look!

Ingredients; 2c cherry tomatoes 1/4c very fine chopped red onion 1/3c finely chopped fresh basil 1-2 green onion chopped finely 1 tsp balsamic vinegar 1/8 tsp salt 1/8 tsp pepperHow to make it:In medium bowl combine everything. Use a blender if desired. Let it stand at least 10min to let flavours blend Serve with corn chips, crackers, tortilla chips or pita bread triangles toasted after brushing with garlic and olive oil. Enjoy.

Tomato Salsa

October is a great time to plant flowers, cold kills; so, don’t let Mr Frost ‘jack’ you around!

While you say tomato, we say... carnation! Try growing a few flowers amongst the

veggies. Tall, attractive, leggy bloomers will attract

bees, helping the uglies in the garden (eg: beans and tomatoes) to hook up!

With such rich diversity, orchids are truly spring favourites.

Remember to split crowded plants and re-pot.

Dose those roses! Spray for fungal diseases as roses experi-

ence new growth.

Submissions are being invited on a draft management plan for Molesworth Station.

In 2005 Molesworth, 180,787 hectares, became a recreation reserve under Department of Conservation management with its working farm continuing, operated by Landcorp Farming Limited.

People have until 4pm, Friday December 14 to make submis-sions on the draft management plan which, when finalised, will guide and direct the management of Molesworth for up to 10 years.

Hamish Ensor, chairman of the Molesworth Steering Committee which advises on Molesworth’s management, said submissions on the Draft Molesworth Manage-ment Plan enabled the public to

have input into how it is managed. There will be four public meet-

ings in November, in Hanmer Springs, Nelson, Blenheim and Christchurch, hosted by the steer-ing committee.

‘Management of Molesworth integrates protection of its natural, historical and cultural values and recreational use with its pastoral farming operation.

The draft management plan outlines proposed measures for how this will be achieved and balanced.”

‘The draft plan and its propos-als build on the good working relationship between DOC and Landcorp developed over several decades.

The plan proposals aim for

further protection and enhance-ment of its farming, conservation, recreation values, and biodiversity.

DOC Nelson Marlborough Conservator Neil Clifton said public access has increased since Molesworth became a reserve and is managed to co-exist with its farm and protection of its natural, historical and cultural qualities.

The draft plan can be found on the DOC website www.doc.govt.nz .

Marlborough Kaikoura’s principal rural fire officer Richard McNa-mara wants to build a ‘prevention culture’ into fire safety attitudes in Marlborough; one of the hottest, driest parts of the country.

“There is a good understanding here of the impact of fire and we have some great teams of volunteer fire fighters across the region. But it is easy for a community to get a bit blasé about fire safety,” he said.

The last big fire in the Marlborough-Kaikoura region was the dramatic Boxing Day fire which swept across the foothills of the Withers on the edge of Blenheim in 2000 burning off almost 7000ha of grassland.

This summer has the potential to be another hot, dry season, says Mr McNamara, with temperatures forecast to be average, or maybe even higher than average.

“There’s a bit of uncertainty about the climate but spring usually brings hot dry winds here and that’s the kind of weather that firemen hate. So we’re asking people to think about fire safety – and it’s a particularly important message for people who live outside the urban area,” he said.

He says people living on rural prop-erties need to face the fact that it takes emergency services longer to reach

their properties in the event of fire.“Distance means a house fire in

the country can have disastrous consequences, especially if no one is around when it begins. Serious damage or even total loss is a far more likely outcome for a rural house fire unless property owners have taken all possible steps to minimise fire risk.”

The NZ Rural Fire Authority’s FireSmart Manual has a good check-list which every country property owner should consult.

He stresses the importance of ensur-ing properties are easily accessible to appliances.

“Low hanging trees or parked vehicles make it very difficult to get a 10-tonne tanker up a narrow driveway,” he said.

Smoke alarms are absolutely es-sential but he also urges anyone building a new house in the country to seriously consider installing a sprinkler system.

“For about $350 per sprinkler head (a typical 3 bedroom home would require perhaps 12 sprinklers) you get a fire fighter in every room.”

With summer weather not far away, Mr McNamara says anyone with dry vegetation piles to burn should be get-ting on with the job – before fire bans come into force. In most parts of the

rural Marlborough-Kaikoura region, fires are still able to be lit although fire permits are required in some areas; check with your local Council to see if a permit is required.

Fire permits are free and available through the Marlborough Kaikoura Rural Fire Authority’s Permit system. Ph (03) 520 7400; Fax (03) 520 7496; Email [email protected]

Mr McNamara says it makes good sense to minimise all fire risk factors now, before the heat of summer.

“Every time the siren goes off it suggests we have had a failure – a fire which someone could have prevented.”

They call themselves apiarists, but their job has nothing to do with apes.

From the bush and farmland, to lifestyle blocks and back yards, Matt Wells and Catherine Gordon look after nearly 170 beehives throughout Marlborough, and areas of Nelson Bays.

The busy season has started buzzing, and at the moment they spend lots of their time making the beehives taller, so bees have room to make their honey.

This is done by stacking up boxes of frames of recycled wax, which the bees use as their ‘foundation’ to make their honey on.

The boxes, or ‘honey supers’ are placed above where the queen lives in her brood nest.

As the population of bees in-creases, more bees bring in honey, so more supers need to be added to contain it.

“It’s about the whole conservation of bees,” said Matt, who has been bee keeping for 20 years.

Matt and Catherine are based in Picton, and call themselves Urban Bees.

“A lot of people have beehives just to have the bees – the harmonic thing in their garden.”

Catherine said people who love their gardens and producing their own goods off the land, need to have beehives.

“It goes hand in hand with self sufficiency,” she said.

There is quite an involved struc-ture to the simple looking stack of boxes.

The bottom box houses the queen bee, and with her live thousands of ‘workers,’ sterile females, and ‘drones,’ fertile males.

During winter, the boxes are minimised, as bee numbers in the hives naturally reduce, and less activity takes place.

As the weather warms up, repro-duction takes place, with the queen laying up to 200 eggs an hour, night and day, without sleeping.

An ‘excluder’ stops the queen moving up to the supers and pro-ducing brood, (eggs and larvae) in the honey.

“Drones are bigger, they have to carry the strong while mating in flight,” said Matt.

The temperature inside the bee-hives sits at 37 degrees Celsius all year-round, which is the human body temperature.

A bee’s wings will buzz in dif-ferent directions, causing air flow to heat or cool the atmosphere, depending on the air temperature needed.

Matt and Catherine have to con-stantly monitor the hives, checking there is enough room for the bees, that the queen is present and lay-ing healthily, and that there is no disease.

Catherine said we are lucky in New Zealand not to have suffered Colony Collapse Syndrome, (CCS) which has happened in many other parts of the world, caused in part

by excessive transport of bees for pollination, with lack of welfare.

But varroa mite has caused bee farmers problems for a decade now, so disease control takes place every spring and autumn, where strips of miticide are placed in the beehives, to manage the risk.

Catherine said varroa mite has caused the loss of many wild bee-hives, so people are enjoying their own beehives as a way to encourage pollination.

“Because of varroa, it’s a lot harder to pollinate plants these days, so bees need intervention to survive.”

Surviving daily interaction with thousands of bees comes down to good rearing skills.

“I raise my own queens,” said Matt, who puts much attention and time into producing good tempera-ment, and bees that have a tendency not to swarm, or fly away from the hive too often.

“Now and then we get the odd sting, but generally, if you carry on they ignore you because they are busy doing their own thing,” said Catherine.

www.urbanbees.co.nzCome to the Picton Spring Market

Day this Saturday, to learn all about beehives and honey.

Organised by the Picton Toy Li-brary, the market day is a joint effort for some community fundraising.

There will be 35 stalls represent-ing many community groups in Picton.

It will be held at the Picton Toy

Buzzing with goodness

Library, next to the Scout hall, between 9am and 1pm.

A good family event, it will be on rain or shine, with art, craft, homemade goods, food, pre-loved goods, local specialities, and buskers.

“We are hoping to raise money for a lot of local organi-sations,” said Haylee Milham, the market organiser.

“If we are really well or-ganised we will be able to do this again.”

Matt Wells and Catherine Gordon from Picton are buzzing about the Picton Spring Fair on Saturday, where they will teach people a thing or two about bees and honey.

Frost season continues on, and the best way to deal with it is to keep your ear plugs handy, and spare a thought for the vineyard managers.

Nadia Crighton, from BNC Viticulture Contracting, said that although spring has been fairly kind so far with only a couple of hard frosts causing frost fans to be turned on, people always complain about the noise.

She admits it can be hard to put up with the noise, especially when young children are woken up.

But she wanted to remind people it is only for a couple of months per year, and without it, there would be no wine industry.

Nadia said infrastructure and facilities we get in Marlborough are hugely benefited by the wine industry.

“We get to enjoy the spoils, and get some of the best wine in the world here.”

Nadia remembers the heavy frost of 2007, when many growers suffered fruit loss.

That year, she measured icicles hanging from the vines on her property in the Wairau Valley

measuring 50cm long.“It was the biggest frost we have ever seen.”A lot has been learned since then, using

methods such as water protection to prevent loss.

“Water protection is like putting a wetsuit over the buds,” she said.

Nadia said forward thinking systems are prevalent today in the wine industry, both in terms of protecting crops from adverse atmospheric conditions like harsh frosts and using water protection, to using spray techniques that have minimal consequences on the environment.

“Innovations such as the Recycle Spray Unit can immensly reduce

chemicals used on vineyards while still achieving the same great

results. They also greatly reduce drift and chemical waste.”

Sustainable Wine Growing New Zealand (SWNZ) introduced a sustainable policy in 2007, promoting participation in SWNZ and

also recognises other environmental-based programmes such as certified organic and biodynamic production.

Nadia said frost season was a good time to remind everyone in Marlborough that vineyard managers do the best they can to look after, and manage the environment.

“So keep in mind that if you are not in the vineyard industry, have a think for the vineyard managers out in the cold during the night, when we are snuggled up in bed.”

of Prizes to be won

All enquiries to Renwick Arms Country Club, 92 High Street, Renwick • Ph: (03) 572 8597

By Robbie ParkesBragging rights will surely be abused when

keen fishermen size up each other’s catches at the annual Renwick Arms Country Club Fishin’ Competition next weekend.

Organiser and Club manager Allan ‘Ferg’ Ferguson said it is a great family event with $7,000 worth of prizes in total.

“It keeps growing every year, it’s complete word of mouth.”

More than 100 people entered last year, with about 40 children heading along too.

He said there are some really good sponsors again this year, with Marlborough Hunting & Fishing supplying a large portion of the prizes.

One of the major prizes is a $1,200 fishing charter trip from Fin Fishing Charters, and a wide variety of spot prizes are up for grabs too.

Anyone who enters is eligible for the main prize.

Last year, it went to a father son team after they caught a “great big seven gill shark.”

He can’t recall any unusual catches or stand-out tales from all the years the competition has run, but was adamant anyone out there on the day would have a yarn or two to tell.

“Everyone’s got stories of course, and everyone talks about the one that got away.”

However, it is not all about the glory.“What we’re trying to do, as well as get

people to go out fishing, is really encourage kids to fish.

“It’s really good for them to get outside, get a bit of fresh saltwater air and catch a fish.”

Whether they get on a boat, catch a spotty off the wharf, or head up the creek and get an eel, when it comes to the weigh-in, they will get a prize bag, said Ferg.

“In case they’ve missed out on a fish, we’ll give them a chocolate fish as well.”

The final weigh-in at the Club takes place from 1pm to 4pm on Sunday.

Ferg said they eventually get boxes filled with fish, and even crayfish that are either taken home or put up for auction.

“We had a few guys go out last year just to fish for auction.”

All the proceeds went to Renwick Kinder-garten, and Ferg said they will do something similar this year.

“So it’s a little fundraiser for someone else.”The competition kicks off Labour weekend,

October 19, 20, and 21.Entries close Thursday, October 18 at 9pm.

The Junior Kiwis team to play the Junior Kangaroos in Townsville this Saturday has been named.

Five members of the team that beat the Junior Kangaroos 28-16 in Newcastle last year have been included, while last years captain Carlos Tuimavave has been named as co-captain along with Jason Tau-malolo from the North Queensland Cowboys.

Eleven former teammates have stood up as key witnesses against cyclist and seven-time Tour de France winner Lance Armstrong in his case against the US Anti-Doping Agency.

Armstrong challenged the US-ADA to name names and provide evidence against him, which they produced in a report of more than 150 pages.

Winston Reid and Ryan Nelsen are unlikely contenders in the All Whites world cup qualifier in Tahiti on Saturday night.

Reid and Nelsen are currently in England recovering from injuries from their club matches for West Ham and Queens Park Rangers respectively.

Racing at Queen Charlotte Yacht Club on Saturday was the Short Course Championship with four races in total

Sailing conditions were very windy Northerly, 20 to 25 knots to start the first race, swtiching to very light Southerlies for the second.

The wind swung backwards and forwards between the two directions for the remaining two races.

Nineteen boats took to the water

with a good intermediate Starling Fleet making good numbers.

Green Fleet Optimist; Emily Overend 1st; Jasper Hopkins 2nd; Bob Marr 3rd.

Open Optimist; Nico van Beek 1st; Iolo Adams 2nd; Alice Overend 3rd.

Starlings; Callum Radford 1st; Seren Adams 2nd; Nicholas Gar-dinar 3rd.

Laser; Stuart Burrough 1st; Jason Anderson 2nd; Peter Bush 3rd.

Seven Queen Charlotte Yacht Club sailors competed at the Stack Interiors Auckland Winter Champs at the weekend, with good results.

The Queen Charlotte team were the largest representation of any South Island yacht club at the competition - the first major sailing event of the year.

The event, held over three courses and a number of days, usually attracts 300 or more sailors from Junior Green Fleet Optimists to Olympic Classes.

Murrays Bay Sailing Club hosted the regatta

Hamish Clark of QCYC lead the Optimist Open Fleet at the end of three races for the first day with Alistair Gifford not far behind.

Henry Gibbs likewise led the P Class Fleet.

The wind was building and the forecast looked ugly for the second day, Saturday.

With winds blowing at 35 knots and

forecast to increase, the decision was made to cancel the days racing.

Sunday had four races scheduled and the fleets set sail for their various courses in light and shifty conditions.

Alistair Gifford popped into 2nd overall with Hamish Clark settling for 3rd.

Nick Egnot-Johnson took out the Optimist title with a very close finish from the two QCYC sailors.

Oliver Cowley came 30th, Max Gibbs, 57th, and Jack Tripe, 58th in their first Open Fleet major regatta.

Henry Gibbs convincingly won the P Class Fleet by 14 points, taking home one of the most impressive trophies on NZ Yachting.

Taylor Burn, in his first event back in a Laser Radial since January, finished 6th in a very competitive Fleet com-prising of the Wonens Olympic Laser rep, the World Masters Champion and the National Champion.

Sport is a little like life. There are rogues in life and

they’re out there in sport also....the Ben Johnsons, the Marion Jones. There’s been baseballers who have thrown the World Series as part of a gambling rip-off; cricket has been rife with corruption.

And the bigger they are the harder they fall.

I’ve been thinking this as it looks like we can now add the great, or should that be not so great, Lance Armstrong, to the parthenon of sporting rogues, vagabonds and cheats.

If he stays true to form Armstrong, the winner of the Tour de France seven times, will place his hand on

his heart and say ‘I’m not guilty your honour.’

But the evidence has grown substantially and how can he deny what has just come out?

Yesterday it was revealed that The United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) alleges that Armstrong was at the heart of a sophisticated doping programme – in fact the most sophisticated in history.

The USADA would not go out on a limb and say these things lightly. They have some hefty evidence to back up their allegations – a more than 1000 page document and the testimony from 11 former teammates.

I don’t know if former top New Zealand cyclist Stephen Swart is among those 11 but I always remember Swart saying six years ago that Armstrong was a drugs cheat.

Swart had been on the same Motorola professional team with Armstrong back in 1995 and the future Tour de France winner was heavily into the drugs then, taking erythropoetin (EPO), a banned red cell booster which improves endurance.

So from Lance Armstrong, the guy who licked cancer, the super hero, to Lance the sporting rogue?

What do you think? Email me at [email protected]

Lance Armstrong, hero or rogue?

Speaking of rogues – stay home Mike Tyson. Clean up your act, say some nice things about women before you think of coming to New Zealand to act as a role model for our disadvantaged youth.

And go the Tasman Makos! Great to see them beat Counties

Manukau on Tuesday. All they need is a win over bottom placed North Harbour in Nelson tomorrow to secure a home semifinal in the ITM Cup.

The talent displayed by the young Marlborough swim-mers at the New Zealand short course championships in Wellington earlier this month caused heads to turn.

The three swimmers from Blenheim who attended the meet; Sara Gane, Toby Lloyd and Rebecca Hull, brought home a number of records and medals.

Sara Gane can now call herself New Zealand’s ninth fastest breast stroke swimmer over 200m, in the open age

group. The 14 year-old displayed

a golden performance, win-ning three gold medals, in the 50m,100m, and 200m breast stroke – the first two of those races earning her open records, and she broke three age group records.

“I just wanted to get good times,” she said, so was thrilled with her results.

She is now concentrating on improving her medley performance.

“I’ve always loved swim-ming, I love being in the wa-ter,” she said.

Rebecca Hull, 15, gained two open records, in the 50 metre backstroke and 50 metre freestyle.

Along with Sara, they won bronze in the regional age group 14 year-old medley relay.

Toby Lloyd, 14, broke three Nelson Marlborough records, in the 100m individual medley, 200m freestyle, and 200m butterfly.

He had a fantastic campaign in the butterfly, where he was ranked about 20 going into the race, was seventh after the heats, and finished fourth

fastest.“Butterfly is my favourite

stroke. Toby has been swimming for

three years.“I thought I’d give swimming

a go, and ended up enjoying it.”He hopes to get to the Com-

monwealth Games in the next few years.

These youths dedicate at least 16 hours to the pool each week when they’re in full training, and their coaches Jenni Gane and Liz Peipi said this recent medal and record haul proves there is plenty of swimming talent here in Marlborough.
