To G Mackenzie,Thanks for letter sticking up for

your industry in the Maui’s debate. You raise some interesting questions. You seem to ignore that these questions have been asked before by people who are experts rather than simply informed by anecdotal evidence and a fear for their livelihood.

You also ignore that its now or never for these creatures. We won’t get a second chance. Banning netting means some people may need help and VXSSRUW�ZKLOH� WKH\�¿QG�QHZ� MREV� DQG�ZH�GRQ¶W�HDW�VR�PXFK�¿VK�EHFDXVH� LWV�much more expensive. But not doing so may mean extinction and that’s forever.

A great visual explanation can be found at the website below and thanks for your time.

To the Editor,The Manager and staff at DOC’s

:DLNDWR� $UHD� 2I¿FH� ZRXOG� OLNH� WR�thank the Raglan Surf Lifesaving Club, Raglan Police, local iwi and all those who helped at the pygmy sperm whale stranding at Wainamu Beach on 17 February. The goodwill of locals, visitors and the various agencies who worked together, highlights the communal spirit that exists in the Raglan community and was very much appreciated by DOC staff present.

From around mid-day until later in

the afternoon, numerous unsuccessful attempts were made to release the whale despite the best efforts of those involved. Finally a decision was made, in consultation with iwi, police and veterinary staff present, to euthanase the animal. Local kaumätua Russell Riki offered karakia in accordance with protocol at marine mammal strandings, and Noel Barber kindly offered his tractor and expertise to bury the whale.

Little is known about the biology of pygmy sperm whales. They are secretive creatures, growing to about 3.4m and living in deep waters near the continental shelf where they feed on VTXLG��VKULPSV��FUDEV�DQG�¿VKHV���:KHQ�disturbed they can excrete a reddish-EURZQ�ÀXLG� IURP� WKHLU� LQWHVWLQDO� WUDFW�(similar to squid and octopus) leaving a dense cloud in the water through which they make their escape. This specimen was a 2.7m long female with no obvious external injuries.

In a sequel to this event, Raglan Police called two days later to report a smaller whale stranded on the beach between Rangitoto Point and Mussel Rock. DOC staff and Russell Riki recovered a deceased 1.1m long baby pygmy sperm whale, presumed to be the female’s calf, which was later interred beside her. While DNA samples from the two animals will FRQ¿UP� WKH� PDWHUQDO� OLQNDJH�� ZKDW�caused them to strand is unknown.

Sir Mark plays local rider’s shining knight

Sir Mark Todd and Te Uku equestrian Jody Hartstone at the ‘Horse of the Year’ show in Hastings

He was her knight in shining

armour and she the fair maiden –

and together the newly knighted

Sir Mark Todd and accomplished

Te Uku equestrian Jody Hartstone

did dressage with a difference at

the recent Horse of the Year Show

down-country in Hastings.

It was just a bit of horseplay for the pair who – to the delight of the crowds – hammed it up in hired costumes to medieval music at what’s touted as one of the biggest sporting events in the southern hemisphere.

But for Jody, who’s ridden internationally for New Zealand for 15 years now, their demo was the highlight of this year’s annual show.

It’s a show at which Jody has twice taken top titles on horses she both imports and breeds on the family farm just out of Raglan.

And although she missed a placing this time round, Jody got to show off her new stallion Ali Baba – a “hardy breed” from Portugal, she proudly pointed out to the Chronicle.

He behaved spectacularly, she said, for the dressage display with Sir Mark. In contrast Mark had to put up with a borrowed horse for the occasion, and one

which apparently behaved less than well.Sir Mark – back home from England

specially for the show – did however get to ride Ali Baba, said a delighted Jody, and they were captured on camera by TV One for the whole nation to see.

Jody’s met the Olympic horseman before on her travels around the world but reckons it was good to get to know him better this time. And all his past misdemeanours seem to have been forgiven, she added.

Mark is in fact “a bit of a hero” in horse circles, Jody revealed, and was certainly “hot property” during the week-long show.

Mr Cox says the delay in connecting WKH� ¿UH� DODUP�GLUHFWO\� WR� WKH� ¿UH� EULJDGH�is because the Telecom network currently

only provides two phone lines to the building. “We have had to wait for Telecom to install additional lines which will provide for a Fire Brigade connection. Telecom has committed to having this done by 19 April.”

In response to criticism the new wharf building was opened without a code of compliance, he says it is standard practice WR�LVVXH�D�FHUWL¿FDWH�RI�SXEOLF�XVH�ZKHQ�D�building reaches practical completion, and this allows a building to be occupied prior to the code of compliance being issued.

Retaining wall to be built at Wainui ReserveRemedial works to the main beach access track at Wainui Reserve in Raglan are scheduled to begin next week and will involve the construction of a retaining wall.

The construction is due to start on Tuesday 2 April and is expected to be completed by Friday 17 May.

The beach access track will remain open to pedestrians throughout the project, but there may be some minor disruption due to the work.

Waikato District Council Acting General Manager Service Delivery Stephen Cox said the works were a result of subsidence of the track which required a retaining wall to be

built to minimise the risk of a slip. “If no work is undertaken the

access track will continue to subside in the future with the potential for the track to disappear resulting in no access to the beach for emergency services.”

Mr Cox said the subsidence was likely caused by “coastal erosion at the base of the slope”.

The works will involve excavation of the walkway asphalt, minor vegetation clearing, installation of retaining post and panels, followed by reinstatement of the track.

The project was put out to tender with Rock Control Limited the successful contractors.

When former Raglan chef (PPD�*DOORZD\� ¿UVW� VHW� XS�her food blog, My Darling Lemon Thyme in July 2010, food blogging in New Zealand was still very much in its infancy.

Emma herself was brand new to the concept; she’d picked up a book by American cookbook author Heidi Swanson in Raglan Library, which in turn led her to Swanson’s blog 101 Cookbooks. “I was kind of blown away,” she says. “I knew about blogs

but hadn’t ever seen a food blog before.”

Fast-forward to the present day and food blogging has seen a surge in popularity. There’s now a New Zealand Food Bloggers Association, an annual conference and numerous food writers sharing their stories and recipes online.

For Emma too, the last few years have been a whirlwind of action. My Darling Lemon Thyme now receives around 90 000 visitors a month, she’s been featured on Oprah Winfrey’s ZHEVLWH� DQG� ZDV� D� ¿QDOLVW� LQ� WKH�2012 Saveur Best Food Blog Awards (known as the Oscars of the food blogging world).

She’s also achieved her lifelong goal of writing a cookbook, securing a publishing deal with Harper Collins New Zealand in November last year. Having spent the previous 12 months knocking on publisher’s doors with proposals, Emma says being approached through her blog made a welcome change. “It was nice because I haven’t had to convince them,” she says. “It’s hard to get publishing deals if you don’t have that platform.”

Inspired by fresh, simple

food made from real ingredients, Emma’s recipes are vegetarian and gluten-free. But the cookbook (like the blog) won’t be marketed as such. “If I was to splash gluten-free all across the front, that would cut out most people,” she explains. “I’m hoping that people just take the book for what it is, rather than what it isn’t.”

Now based in Perth, Emma and her family have recently been back in Raglan, catching up with friends and family. It’s an experience that, at times, has seemed a little surreal to the mum of two. “I kind of forget when I’m writing my blog that anyone actually reads it,” she says. “I’ve come home and people know my whole life story.”

But the blurring of personal life and recipe inspiration is part and parcel of the blogging experience. “Most of the food blogs I absolutely love do share more than just the food,” says Emma. “It’s the story and that person’s life that you get involved with.”

Emma says her style has GH¿QLWHO\�HYROYHG�RYHU� WKH�\HDUV��and credits the consistent work that goes into maintaining a blog

with helping to hone her food writing VNLOOV�� ³,� ZLVK� ,¶G� NHSW� P\� ¿UVW� IHZ�draft posts,” she says. “The blog has been such good practice for the book.”

She’s also had to brush up on her photo skills, and says that learning the styling secrets of food photography has been her biggest challenge. “There’s been a lot of crash learning and late nights just fumbling my way through it,” she admits. “I’m pretty

anal with the photos. I’m a really visual person - as so many people are - and I pretty much judge a recipe ERRN� E\� WKH� SKRWRV�� 7KH� IRRG� ,� ¿QG�easy because that’s what I’ve always done.”

Emma’s cookbook will be published in March next year. For recipe inspiration from her kitchen, check out www.mydarlinglemonthyme.com. Emma Brooks

Stylish gazebo adds to bush park appeal

Wainui Bush Park now

has a stylish new gazebo

overlooking a clearing

which, surrounded by

trees and with its own

pond and trickling

stream, has become

a popular venue for

weddings and picnics.

The gazebo – or shelter

– is the result of a combined working bee by volunteers from St Peters Anglican Church and the Friends of Wainui Reserve, and its completion was marked with an on-site blessing last Sunday that took the place of the church’s Palm Sunday service.

&KXUFK� DGPLQ�RI¿FHU� -DQ�Mitchell said the project was

undertaken “in honour of all the mainly elderly volunteers who over the last 20 years have helped to develop and maintain this beautiful reserve”.

A feature of the shelter is the use of southern mahogany gum for the roof beams and also in the bench seats at either end.

The gum logs came from

the late Neal and Dorothy Gavin’s Raglan woodlot, but bowed so badly when milled that they were considered useless. However the natural curve and great strength of the wood proved ideal for the shelter, where the laminated gum beams attach to the top of the conventional tantalised pine uprights.

An exciting new landmark in the historic growth of Raglan is being unveiled in April.

A new neighbourhood has been inspired and nurtured by one of our own, David Peacocke, who was compelled to act after watching recent growth in the town diminish the character of Raglan.

“With the last development boom of the 90’s, we saw the generic suburban house subdivisions arrive in town and these, in my opinion, are starting to undermine what makes Raglan so special” he says.

One of the key issues for David has been the continual sprawl of the town’s housing to the south along Main Road and the destruction of its entry. It pulls the town away from its foreshore.

³5DJODQ¶V�D�ZRUOG�FODVV�VXU¿QJ�destination and is now being discovered by a wider audience,” he says. “People want to be closer to the surf, our coast and our town – why are we trying to grow the town away from where people want to be?”

Surf’s up for Raglan’s newest neighbourhood

Such was his conviction about this, David pulled together a talented and experienced design, planning and engineering team to rise to the challenge of catering for Raglan’s projected growth in a way that recognises that Raglan is a special place.

The team consider that the Rangitahi Peninsula is an ideal area to accommodate the future growth of Raglan. Team lead designer, James Lunday points out why.

“The Rangitahi Peninsula is much more closely associated to the town centre than many other areas. It is close to the school, golf course and existing residential areas. Yes, it’s separated by water, but these are small local channels and crossings with bridges and causeways have always been a feature of Raglan” he says.

Over recent months the team has shaped up an exciting development for the peninsula that would see only a third of the land area used for development while the balance is retained as a farm or is regenerated as

bush. It represents true Raglan values: community, coast and farming.

“This is much more in keeping with the Raglan I’ve known for the last 35 years” says David. “Our relative isolation meant we had to protect our environment, be innovative and embrace sustainability. This is what I wanted embodied in Rangitahi”

David’s company - Raglan Land Company - is proposing to rezone approximately 100 hectares of land on the Rangitahi Peninsula by launching a Private Plan Change (Plan Change 12) that will seek the zoning of the Rangitahi Peninsula be amended from Coastal Zone to a new zone called the “Rangitahi Living Zone”.

The proposal sees the development of a master planned community based on sustainability principles.

As James points out: “We are striving for something special. Plan Change 12 for the Rangitahi Peninsula is designed to enable Raglan to grow in a way that supports the town’s identity and uniqueness whilst also protecting the cultural, ecological and landscape values of the land, the settlement, the wider landscape and the harbour.”

“Raglan is a coastal village with highly distinctive and desirable urban qualities that underpin its reputation as a lifestyle destination. It is vital that the seaside village character is maintained.”

The proposal promotes an urban form that responds to the landscape, the harbour and way of living that set it apart from standard urban growth areas. The design team want to build on the inherent assets of the peninsula (rural/agricultural activity, estuary, beach culture and tourism) to provide the opportunity for other land uses and employment that will reinforce the existing town centre.

In starting with a ‘capacity to absorb growth’ design approach, the team have demonstrated that over the next 40years, over 500 homes can be accommodated, yet only use 1/3 of the land area.

The majority of the land is retained as an integrated farm, or restored as ecological and open space networks.

Some of the features proposed in the concepts include;�� A new multi-modal causeway to

Opotoru Road (already consented).�� A wide variety of housing options

including live-work and compact units.

�� Local Business Enterprises that reinforce existing Raglan town centre and visitor activities.

�� A small village centre with very limited retail and commercial spaces around a village square for neighbourhood convenience only (the increased residential catchment will provide a boost for businesses in the Raglan town centre).

�� A central domain and several open space amenity areas.

�� Tourism opportunities.�� Restoration of the historic stone

wharf area and creation of a new visitor complex.

�� Equestrian grazing, stables, arena and visitor complex.

�� Community gardens.�� Added value opportunities for

primary agricultural produce.

An obviously proud David points out that the approach taken delivers over 10km of integrated walkways, cycleways and bridle paths.

“Whaingaroa Harbour is Raglan’s taonga” he says. “Low impact stormwater design and minimal earthworks were a baseline requirement for me, but the team have gone above and beyond to use this constraint WR�FUHDWH�D�VLJQL¿FDQW�UHFUHDWLRQDO�network. ”

He and his team believe Rangitahi Peninsula can offer a lifestyle opportunity far superior to that which has occurred in recent years throughout the country. They want your input to develop the concepts further.

A public presentation of concepts to date and the opportunity for people to have direct connection with the team has been organised for the 6th of April at the Raglan Town Hall, Bow Street, Raglan.

It’s not often people to get a chance to have genuine input into development proposals at the earliest stages. Come and see what is being proposed and contribute to some fresh ideas and inspiration for Raglan.

RAGLAN Easter Holiday Guide Pullout 1

Easter SUP racing offers fun day for bunnies tooStand up paddleboard racing comes

to Whaingaroa harbour bigtime this

Easter Saturday and anyone, from

beginners to experienced paddlers, will

be able to give it a go.

The Raglan event is part of a Nisco SUP

race series which successfully debuted in

Whitianga recently.

And while organisers say it’s a great

opportunity for anyone to try out for

themselves what’s become the fastest-growing

sport on the globe since snowboarding, the

fun day will also double as a community

fundraiser with all proceeds going towards

security cameras to help stop vehicle break-

ins and thefts at local surf spots.

Auckland promoter Luke Thompson, a

self-described “wannabe local” who was

running auctions and DJing at Raglan’s

very successful kite jam fundraiser

recently, reckons the Stand Up Raglan

HYHQW�FRXOG�EH� WKH�¿UVW�RI�PDQ\�UXQ�HDFK�summer and winter.

While this inaugural event will focus on

short, family fun races in the Kopua estuary,

Luke hopes to include more serious long-

distance paddleboarding in future events.

But meantime the focus is to bring what

has become an elite sport back “down to

grassroots”.

All competitors, from kids to pros like

local legend DK and Armie Armstrong,

need to roll up to Kopua domain at 9am

and register for the races – which will

be ordered according to age and abilities

– then they can put in a couple of hours’

practice out on the water before the SUP

racing begins for real.

All the gear’s supplied – board, paddle,

safety leash and vest – and the plan is to

have four or eight boards in a race.

It’s billed as a “fun and fast competition

format that’s great for the whole family”,

and on shore there’ll be food and drinks

for sale, prizes for the kids, a barbeque and

music. Edith Symes*Registration, practice & demos from 9am at Kopua, $20 entry. Racing 11am-4pm. And see what you’re in for on facebook.com/standupseries

Magic scenery: Magic Mountain Horse Treks

Magic Mountain is 20 mins

drive from Raglan at the end of

Houchen Road, overlooking Te

Mata.

At 328m above sea level, it is the highest dwelling in the district. The only place in the world you can see 3 harbours and 4 volcanoes from one spot. Whaingaroa (Raglan), Aotea and .DZKLD�KDUERXUV�ÀRZ�LQODQG�IURP�WKH�Tasman sea. Mountains Karioi and Pirongia’s steep, bush covered faces tower above the smooth green rolling hills leading up to it. Further south the snowy peaks of Ruapehu and Taranaki can be seen on a clear day.

Rides are 1-3 hours long. Suitable for novice to experienced riders this is a great way to see the New Zealand countryside. The one hour ride is suitable for children and novice riders. The two hour ride is over rolling farm

land to the Te Mata Domain. The trek to the Bridal Veil falls involves some walking on foot through bush to Wairenga (Bridal Veil falls). Ride through paddocks of grazing sheep and cattle. See the wind turbines of the Te Uku wind farm and ride along ridges with endless views of surrounding countryside out to the Tasman sea. Experience the joy of riding and great scenery and take away memories that will last.

Marcus began Magic Mountain almost 20 years ago. He has worked with horses all his life. He grew up locally and his grandfather, R.T. Vernon (Bob) wrote 5 books on local history. Recently Marcus worked on ‘The Hobbit’ as an animal trainer and riding double. Bookings essential. Ph

Summer or winter, Kaahu, the NZ harrier

slopes of Karioi looking for something likely

I was due to party at the weekend - a

friends 40th with a 80s theme. Normally I

would be super excited at this prospect

IHHOLQJ� UDWKHU� ÁDW� WR� VD\� WKH� OHDVW�� $� WULS�

down to Lime to see the lovely Hayley

seemed to be the answer. Could she work

her magic to get me in the mood.

I turn up and have a little time to spare

so I grab the opportunity to enjoy the

ambience of the waiting room or should

I say lovely big comfy lounge with rich

indian furnishings. Hayley can take all

day as far as I am concerned because

this quiet space with a trashy magazine is

simply heaven right now.

Hayley comes to greet me and takes me

to a newly decorated treatment room

again with the same exotic theme that

seems to induce relaxation. We discuss my

treatment. I’m having a brow and lash tint

and tidy. I’m paranoid about therapists

with my brows as some in the past have got

tweezer happy. I like to keep my eyebrows

looking natural and Hayley respected

this. “Eyebrows are like sisters not twins”

said Hayley. She explained that they are

indeed different and what she works on is

gaining symmetry. It makes sense and I’m

glad I have an expert to achieve this as I

can never persevere with the plucking at

home.

While Hayley puts the tint on I am soothed

by the trans sending Reiki music in the

background and I’m feeling like I could

go right off to sleep which is a rare

feeling for me during the day. Hayley

tells me how she sets up the room for her

massage treatments and it’s evident that

this woman really genuinely adores her

role and thrives on giving her clients really

yummy experiences. She wants them to

walk out truly happy with how they look

and feel. But it works both ways as Hayley

expresses “I actually get a lot of joy from

working on my clients”

The tint is off and my new look is revealed.

You can’t under estimate giving some

attention to your appearance when you

are feeling a little blah. It’s certainly a

lift and I feel boosted by the result and

the actual pamper. Yet another bonus

- Hayley explains that because she is the

sole clinician she has been able to reduce

the cost of her treatments.

I leave with a spring in my step. It’s time

to work those shoulder pads and party like

it’s 1999.

Describe your wearable art?

Combining new, recycled and vintage

materials turning those into harmonious,

mosaic style creations

Where did you grow up? Are you from a

creative family?

In the old centre of Antwerp, Belgium. My

Grandad was a tailor-painter who had his

workshop on the river Schelde, making

suits and uniforms for the sailors.

My mum was always sewing (when she

couldn’t sleep she was up making clothes

for my sis and me)

:KHQ�GLG�\RX�ÀUVW�OHDUQ�WR�VHZ"

Nobody taught me. When my mum was

sewing, as a kid I was sitting on the table

beside her chit chatting away.

I must have never forgotten what she

was actually doing. It all got stuck into my

brain somehow by watching.

What is your inspiration?

Traveling through Spain,15years ago,

being in Barcelona, I got really inspired

by Gaudi and started doing Mosaics,

bringing all colors and mixed materials

together into a great harmony of

balance.

How did you start off selling your clothes?

First creating and making for myself as

when immigrating to New Zealand I

didn`t like the fashion styles here so much.

Everybody always commented and

asked me where I got them from. So there

I was before I knew it selling at the Raglan

Creative Market.

always telling me when I was young.......If

you want to do or be something, you make

sure you are or become so exceptional

great at it ,otherwise don’t even think of

starting.

At the time I thought `Whatever, Dad`.....

but I wouldn’t have come this far if I wasn’t

taught to be committed to doing what

you want to achieve.

If you could live any time in history when

would it be?
