Cemetery for quake victims won’t be renamed By Emily O’Connell A PUSH to have Avonhead Park Cemetery renamed to reflect its significance as the final resting place of earthquake victims has come to a halt. The Friends of Avonhead Cemetery group has been lobbying to have the name changed to the Avonhead Memorial Cemetery. Four people who died in the CTV Building collapse and 20 others who lost their lives in the February 22, 2011, earthquake, are buried in the cemetery. But a city council report has found the cemetery can’t be renamed. Fendalton-WaimairiHarewood Community Board chairman David Cartwright said the cemetery doesn’t meet the criteria. “What would trigger a site or location to be named a memorial, in this particular case, doesn’t trigger that,” he said. He said the official memorial for earthquake victims is on Oxford Tce. FOAC chairman Clive Paris said the group was not surprised at the response from city council staff. •Turn to page 5

Tuesday November 21 2017 FROM THE EDITOR’S DESK
THE FRIENDS of Avonhead Cemetery spokesman Clive Paris doesn’t pull any punches (see page 1) over the decision not to include the name memorial in the cemetery’s name. The issue is whether to add memorial to take into account the 2011 earthquake victims who are interned there has been ongoing for a long time. But now the city council has made a decision that adding the name doesn’t meet required criteria for cemeteries. But Clive isn’t impressed: “They (city council) have always had a backward looking mentality when approaching ideas or issues and tend to go into defence mode rather than looking at the issue and responding positively.” Good to see Tongan league star Tuimoala Lolohea drop into Hornby last week (page 4). They’ll need to be at their best to beat England this weekend. – Barry Clarke

News Pensioners plead for help By Emily O’Connell REST HOME residents are again pleading for noisy trucks to be banned from Lodestar Ave. A Lady Wigram Retirement Village resident wrote a letter to the Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton Community Board which was discussed last week. The letter was asking for action to be taken so they could enjoy some “peace and quiet.” Halswell Ward city councillor Anne Galloway (left) asked the board what more they could do to support the progress. Community board chairman Mike Mora said they are supporting the progress by receiving the letter and referring it to city council staff for feedback. Cr Galloway said the Lady Wigram residents are “very upset with how the issue has transpired.” The Traffic and Parking Bylaw 2017, which would give the city council the ability to restrict heavy vehicles on certain roads,
NOISY: A large container truck on Lodestar Ave, Wigram. PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER will go to the city council on Thursday for approval. If the bylaw is approved, the city council will then consider placing a restriction on Lodestar Ave. When asked again this week by Western News whether she will push for heavy trucks to be stopped, Cr Galloway would only say she’s been working with Wigram MP Megan Woods and

city council staff “to address the concerns of all the residents who are impacted.” “I’ve reassured residents through emails, phone calls and visits that I am taking the concerns seriously and will be using all tools available to us to manage these,” she said. Three weeks ago Cr Galloway told Western News she doubted

the new bylaw will be of any use. “It seems that speed is the issue and the recommendation is for police to get more involved in monitoring this,” Cr Galloway said. But then Cr Galloway tempered her stance, sending Western News an email saying the bylaw can work. “There definitely is still hope that it can be used to prevent heavy trucks along Lodestar. Staff cannot consider it as an option until it is passed,” Cr Galloway said. Last week Cr Galloway said she’s thrilled “things are moving so quickly” and she hopes the bylaw is passed. She said the city council’s Heavy Vehicle Parking in Residential Area Policy is another tool which can be used to address the Lodestar Ave situation. Lady Wigram Retirement Village residents said they get woken up at 4.30am. Retirement village residents have been lobbying since April when they met with Cr Galloway and Dr Woods asking for a bylaw to stop trucks being allowed to drive through Lodestar Ave. It’s a short cut to work sites in the area.

Concerns in Yaldhurst Yaldhurst Residents Association chairwoman Sara HarnettKikstra talks about what’s happening in the area What’s happening in Yaldhurst? Plenty of noise, a plethora of new quarries in a rural zone, a plethora of industrial activity in a rural zone and plenty of stressed residents. The root of the problem is a succession of district plans with extremely permissive rules. There are always consequences. While the buzz word in the city is rebuild and regenerate out on the fringes of the city it is denigrate. City council acting head of resource consents John Gibson said “the city council was aware of concerns in the area and sought to address them through a planning and legal framework.” Can he not comprehend that is precisely what caused the problem, a dysfunctional Resource Management Act. Historically the Resource Management Act looks at every application in isolation, in an ad hoc laissez faire style and doesn’t appear to take into account the cumulative effects of an activity.
CELEBRATIONS: Hornby Preschool children and staff gathered with Lolohea during his visit, while Hornby High School students played a song for him.
That is until the recent environment court decision by Judge Borthwick in Harewood Gravels, city council versus Joint Action Group. The application for resource consent has been declined. In this case Judge Borthwick considered the cumulative effects of the 300ha already consented with the current application and the absence of any specific study to determine the level of quarrying which is acceptable within this zone. As an aside the court acknowledged the impact on residents of the development of quarrying in this area and their felt sense of frustration, at times, helplessness, when responding to the applications in respect of which they were notified and their efforts to ‘police’ the compliance by neighbouring quarries with the conditions of their consents. Harewood Gravels has now appealed to the High Court. The city council and Environment Canterbury’s lack of action is akin to “Caesar fiddling while Rome burns.”

Inquiry into bus routes By Emily O’Connell A DOUBLE-DECKER bus tour company has agreed not to drive through residential Riccarton streets – but it has revealed a shortcoming in transport laws. Hassle-Free Tours had planned to go through Rata, Rimu and Titoki Sts on its new route which started earlier this month. The city council was made aware of the route when the tour company made a request to create a bus stop outside Westfield Riccarton on Rotherham St. An agreement was then made to avoid those roads. However, one bus driver accidentally drove on residential streets in Riccarton on the first day of the new route. Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton Community Board chairwoman Helen Broughton said when the tour company realised, it made a “very nice” apology. Mrs Broughton said she will now look into the laws which surround the issue. She said not only is it a breach of privacy, it’s also concerning bus companies don’t have to seek approval on their chosen routes. City council manager of transport operations Aaron Haymes
said the agreement relied on “the good will” of the tour company. He said the city council supported the right to privacy of residents. But he said streets are public places and as long as it’s within the bounds of traffic regulations, there are no controls on where buses can travel. “Environment Canterbury and the city council do, however, consult on all public Metro bus routes and bus stop locations,” Mr Haymes said. Riccarton Bush-Kilmarnock Residents’ Association chair-
man Tony Simons said residents didn’t have a problem with the tours in principle. “We should be encouraging a revitalised tourism industry in Christchurch,” he said. Mr Simons said the agreement has met the association’s objections and it is happy the issue has been resolved. The proposed bus stop would function from 9am to 5pm everyday and return to normal car parking after hours. The community board will discuss the bus stop at its meeting next month.

ago, when he created nine murals for the walkway. Prior to that, the wall was littered with graffiti. Riccarton residents recently helped clear some vine from the wall to allow for more murals to be painted. Deans Ave Precinct Society then asked Mr Holt if he would do the job. Mr Holt said he has completed
one of the new murals and is currently working on the second, and is drawing inspiration from the paintings. “The project lets me colour up my neighbourhood,” Mr Holt said. He said he has loved getting to know his neighbours as they stop to admire his handy work on their way to and fro each day.
By Emily O’Connell THE HEI Hei Broomfield Community Development Trust will receive $4000 of community board funding for stolen tae kwon do equipment. KIX Taekwondo Christchurch is having to make do, with students bringing in their own gear, after about $3500 worth of equipment was stolen out of their shed in September. The funding will come from the community board’s 2017/18 Discretionary Response Fund. Landlord Tracey Buunk said the funding is a huge help and it’s very important to locals. The trust requested $4859 from the Halswell-HornbyRiccarton Community Board – which is just short of the total $5659 needed. Mrs Buunk said they have some fundraising, including $400 from their givealittle page, so they don’t require the whole $5659. Mrs Buunk said the price of the equipment has increased, meaning the $3500 of gear they lost, is now worth closer to $5000.
THE RUSSLEY VILLAGE
She said the equipment was not insured by the club. And because she didn’t know that, it wasn’t listed separately under her insurance which means if she made a claim, the excess would be $5000. KIX Taekwondo Christchurch instructor, Jupiter Bignotea said the club was devastated after the break-in. “Basically what was taken was the gear that we use every day. We are a not-for-profit club so all our funding is in the fees of the students,” he said. Forty-eight interlocking red and blue mats, seven kick shields, eight paddle target pads, 16 focus punch pads, two medicine balls, a first aid kit, one boxing punch bag, two agility ladders, two sets of elastic bands, skipping ropes, personalised screens and a novelty gong were stolen. The trust and club will arrange for a contract to be drawn up so the equipment can be bought from the trust if the club change location. Mrs Buunk said the security has been upped on the storage containers and property.

TOP SCHOLARS: Justine Lee (left) and Linda Wang won the top two awards at the Burnside High prize-giving.
Burnside celebrates success BURNSIDE High School’s dux and this year’s recipient of the Peter Bryant Memorial Award was Justine Lee. Her time at the school included an extremely wide ranging involvement in extra-curricular activities, proving herself to be a talented musician with involvement in Big Sing, Senior Chorale and Bel Canto. She offered her time in school service as a year 9 student support prefect, as an international student leader and as an academic mentor. From an early age,
she excelled in mathematical and problem-solving tasks. This all-round talent has obviously served her well over her years at Burnside as she has accumulated 21 first places in subjects since year 9, and since starting NCEA in 2015, has earned an excellence endorsement in every subject she has studied. Justine is set to begin studies in economics and finance at Canterbury University. The proxime accessit award and medal was awarded to Linda Wang. She has proved to be incredibly talented across a
range of subjects, often visiting the stage in relation to her academic excellence and, to date, has accumulated 11 first places since starting year 9. She has won additional distinction and high distinction awards every year in external academic competitions. This year, Linda served as a year 10 student support prefect, as well as an international student leader and academic mentor. She will now study biomedical science at Auckland University.

SUCCESS: St Thomas of Canterbury College teachers (from left) Dean Smith, Chris Leader, Tim Muir, Robbie Lange, Jacob Allen, Paul Burton, Richard Washington and Hamish Barclay raised money and awareness for men’s health by taking part in the Molesworth Run on Friday.
Teachers run for men’s health By Emily O’Connell WITH SUNSCREEN and water in tow, eight St Thomas’ teachers took on the Molesworth Run on Friday. Due to a recent storm, this year’s race from Molesworth station to Hamner Springs was 23km shorter than usual. Chris Leader, Dean Smith, Hamish Barclay, Paul Burton, Robbie Lange, Richard Washington, Jacob Allen and Tim Muir split into two teams and competed against each other in the 61.8km race. So what inspired this venture? Mr Leader said they joined forces to raise money for men’s health. “More specifically to raise funds for prostate cancer, testicular cancer, mental health and suicide preven-
tion,” he said. Mr Leader said they are trying to spread the message to the young men at St Thomas’. “We wanted to do some type of activity to get our students to understand the areas of suicide, mental health and cancers which men don’t usually talk about,” he said. Mr Leader said suicide is a huge issue with men and there’s a growing problem with the mental health sector in New Zealand. The teachers have also been growing facial hair as part of Movember. Last year the teachers raised $2810 and they’re hoping to get about the same this year. •Donations can be made on https://nz.movember.com/ team/2241309.

Hornby High School
Commitment, Achievement, Resilience, Respect
Years 7 – 13
Keep learning during summer
Kia ora koutou. Talofa. Kia Orana. Malo e lelei. Bula. Fakaalofa atu. Namaste. Kumusta. Haere mai ki Te Huruhuru Ao o Horomaka. Warm greetings to the Hornby High School community. Last week we celebrated senior achievement with our showcase Senior Prize-giving evening, and what a celebration it was. We had, the week before, been privileged to host a visit from the Prime Minister The Right Honourable Jacinda Ardern, and at prize giving we had the pleasure of the company of local MP and now cabinet minister The Honourable Dr Megan Woods who presented our special prizes. There can be no doubt of the quality of the achievement of our students. As we sat and listened to the prize citations for our special prizewinners it was very clear that these are amazing young people determined to be the best they can, to do the best they can, to change the world. Speakers at the Prize-giving included Sam Johnson (founder of the Student Volunteer Army) and each speaker talked of the dreams and aspirations that our young people should have. I gave some specific advice that I’d heard earlier that day on the radio: Fall in love with your dream, because if you do you’ll find your true passion, and you’ll give up almost anything to make it come true. Then anything is possible. Some of our many prizewinners are featured on this page. One last thought for the year: The final day of the school year shouldn’t signal an end to learning. Students experience a significant “summer slump” in their learning over the January period. Learning should not stop because classes have finished. Keep your tamariki reading. Get them to enter the “summer learning journey” (more information soon), get them entering a summer blogging competition. Let’s not lose the amazing gains that our kids have made during the year, let’s not undo the good they have done with their hard work. Please follow my thinking on issues that are both specific to Hornby High School and also of more general educational interest on my Principal’s blog “Whakatauki: He waka eke noa”, after all, we are indeed all in this together – https:// whakataukihewakaekenoa.blogspot.co.nz/.

Big industrial land sale in Avonhead, Hornby TWO OF the largest greenfield commercial and industrial development land blocks on the city’s urban fringe are up for sale. The 7.61ha block at 361 Russley Rd, Avonhead, adjacent to Christchurch Airport, and 11.97ha block at 206 Shands Rd, Hornby, are both zoned for commercial and industrial-related property usages. The Russley Rd site is being marketed as deadline sale with offers closing at 4pm on December 7, while the Shands Rd block has a deadline sale, with offers closing at 4pm on December 6. Both blocks are being marketed for sale by Greg Mann and Nick O’Styke, of Bayleys Canterbury. The Russley Rd block is situ-

ated within the special purpose airport zone, which allows for the building of car parking amenities, warehouse and distribution complexes, commercial service premises, or retail and hospitality operations. The block sits in the middle of four potential access routes – facing onto Avonhead Rd, Ron
Guthrey Rd, Syd Bradley Rd and with a 400m-long exposure to Russley Rd. Mr Mann said the zoning of the Russley Rd block was designed to underpin the ongoing operations and roles of nearby airport and aviation activities. “Christchurch International
Airport plays a significant role in supporting the economic and social development of not only the city, but also greater Canterbury and indeed the South Island,” Mr Mann said. Meanwhile, the Shands Rd block is zoned industrial general – providing a buffer between Hornby’s industrial and
residential sectors and allowing for a broad range of business operations. The rectangular site fronts onto Establishment Drive and Shands Rd. Mr O’Styke said the property was close to a raft of different business premises. “A 2015 commercial property report identified Hornby as one of the key growth suburbs in western Christchurch as a result of the earthquake rebuild and relocation activity,” Mr O’Styke said. “Given the close proximity to State Highway 1, the Port of Lyttelton, and Christchurch Airport, there is no question that Hornby is widely recognised as one of the most strategicallylocated industrial and logistical hubs in Christchurch” he said.
Computer science through the generations •From page 1 The programme, which is used around the world, focuses on binary numbers, algorithms and data compression and has been translated into 25 different languages. A visit to his son’s year 1 class to talk about his profession sparked the idea.
“I was aware from my son about the people before me, in particular a cop, who came along with his car and a nurse who brought fake blood, so as a computer scientist the challenge was getting kids to actually be interested in computer science.
“But then it went down really well and I kept being invited back for more sessions,” said Prof Bell (left). The challenge was to find an engaging and interesting way to teach computer science, something Prof Bell was determined to achieve.
“Someone might say, well, obviously, you can’t teach computer science to five-year-olds and so I thought well okay, lets see if we can . . . it’s definitely about rising to that challenge.” Shirley Primary School, Banks Avenue School and Chisnallwood Intermediate

School were some of the first to trial the system. “The local Christchurch schools have been a very big part of what has become a well-known international programme … being Kiwi schools, I feel they are more open to new ideas and making stuff happen,” said Prof Bell.

RYMAN HEALTHCARE Retirement village offers quality care & great companionship All the residents at Woodcote are free to take part in the many activities and outings on offer. These include the exclusive Ryman Triple A exercise programme, tailored for residents’ differing levels of health and mobility. In conjunction with Triple A, the Engage programme is designed to keep residents stimulated and entertained. Run by the two activities co-ordinators, it includes a wide range of activities, entertainment and outings, such as shopping trips to The Hub and dining out at restaurants. There is live entertainment every week, while petanque, indoor bowls, table tennis, darts and cards are available, as well as a library and hair salon. “We introduced table tennis at the suggestion of a resident,” Liz says. “It’s very important to us that the residents know that this is their home, and that they feel in charge of their own space, with their possessions in their rooms, and in charge of their day.” She says occasions such as Anzac Day, St Patrick’s Day and Melbourne Cup day are celebrated, and residents receive a bouquet from the Woodcote staff on special birthdays.

CULTURE: One of Ilam School’s kapa haka groups taking the stage last Thursday night at its Polyfest.
Diversification within school celebrated By Emily O’Connell ALL ASPECTS of Polynesia were celebrated at Ilam School last Thursday night. The school’s annual Polyfest saw about 300 people gather in their hall for food, music and dance. Teacher and organiser Mick Withers said the event was inspired by the Christchchurch Primary Schools Cultural Festival. He said three years ago, Ilam entered multiple teams in the festival and they saw the need for their own celebration.
Mr Withers said the highlight was having parents get involved in what they call the “Fruit Haka.” He said it’s always quite funny because parents have to learn the actions from the pupils. Mr Withers said the night was a relaxed celebration of the different diversities within the school. He said Ilam’s junior and senior kapa haka group both took to the stage with various acts. Mr Withers said each family brought a plate of food to share which represented their ethnicity.
THINKERS: Christchurch Girls’ High School student Annabelle Reilly (left) and St Margaret’s College students Lucy Jessup, Zelle Logan and Hattie Compton-Moen came away with top prizes at the national Future Problem Solving final. Together they took out the middle division of the competition. St Margaret’s global issues team also took out the overall creativity award.

Robots tax the minds By Emily O’Connell EIGHTY-EIGHT pupils, 69 pizzas and numerous robots gathered in Russley School’s hall for Robofest. The lego robotics competition is run by teachers for teachers and their year 5 to 8 pupils. Eleven different schools throughout Canterbury, with 21 teams, competed at the festival. Casebrook Intermediate School’s Casebrook A+ finished first with 480 points. Russley School’s D-Day team finished second with 360 points. And in third St Martin School’s Lump of Cheese had 335 points. Russley School’s Yokosuna team took out the Sumo King competition. Organiser Annette Ward said the event was surprisingly quiet. She said teams were too busy problem-solving to make much noise. Mrs Ward said the competition is different from most because there are different challenges each year. “Nobody knows until competition day . . . there are six different challenges with a variety of points available,” she said. Mrs Ward said pupils have to lead their robots on ramps, platforms and through mazes. She said pupils also have to complete challenges using light, touch and ultrasonic sensors. “Teams have to decide what challenges will be easier for them to do to get the maximum points,” Mrs Ward said.
TESTING: Izak Koster (left) and Cameron Sidaway putting their robots through their paces.

FOCUS ON HEALTH Dilo Oil – The Remarkable Centuries old folk remedy Skin Rejuvenator supports good health! Until Rachel Hunter’s popular TV series “TOUR OF BEAUTY” Dilo Oil was relatively unknown, being one of the best-kept secrets of the Pacific Islands. It may however be the number one natural beauty oil available as it possesses powerful natural skin regeneration and healing properties. According to ethnobotanist Chris Kilham, Dilo (pronounced dee-lo) Oil is a powerful skin regenerator as it is one of the most effective agents in promoting the regeneration and formation of new tissue, thereby accelerating wound healing and the growth of healthy skin. Dilo Oil is super-absorbing and can penetrate all three layers of the skin, offering exceptional cell hydration and regeneration. As well as this, Dilo Oil has potent anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antifungal and antioxidant properties. Traditionally, Dilo Oil is used to keep the skin young and youthful and for just about any skin complaint. Some of the conditions for which it is considered helpful include abrasions, cuts and cracks, acne and acne scars, pimples, blemishes, stretch marks, wrinkles, blisters, burns (including chemical and radiation), diabetic sores, rashes, shaving irritation, dry or scaly skin,
eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis, herpes sores (cold-sores), insect bites and stings, rheumatism, pain, sciatica, shingles, sunburn, rosacea, athlete’s foot, skin eruptions, warts, skin ulcers and sores, nappy rash and almost any other skin ailment and often with incredible results. Many beauty and skincare products on the market today contain unnatural ingredients that can be toxic and may even contribute to disease. Generally the benefits are exaggerated and often only temporary or camouflage. Marshall’s Dilo Oil is 100% pure and certified organic. It has been cold-pressed from the Dilo nut and contains absolutely no additives. Polynesians and Southeast Asians have revered Dilo Oil for centuries believing it to be a sacred gift of nature and the Gods. Dilo oil stimulates and supports the skins natural healing process through the growth of new healthy skin tissue. I personally believe it is a remarkable product and highly recommend it to everyone. A 50ml bottle is $19.90 and 100ml only $29.90. Further information is available from the Natural Health Advisers at Marshall’s Health & Natural Therapy in New Brighton. We are Always Happy to Help!
A fermented liquid health tonic offers an array of powerful health benefits. It is none other than the popular apple cider vinegar or ACV. Since the time of Hippocrates – the “Father of Medicine” – ACV has been renowned for its curative properties. In his popular book “ARTHRITIS and FOLK MEDICINE”, DR. D.C. Jarvis reports how he found that Vermonters who regularly consumed ACV and Honey had excellent health with many putting in a vigorous day’s work on the farm even when well into their eighties. He also noted the effects of ACV and H on arthritis to be remarkable with many patients reporting almost total relief after taking a course of the mixture. Dr. Jarvis surmised that the acid and potassium in cider vinegar counteracted calcium deposits and helped the body control calcium use. He also noted that Vermonters who consumed ACV and H around meal time had excellent blood pressure and circulation. The reason he found was that protein foods thickened the blood and vinegar thinned it. As the blood thickens it cannot pass as easily and quickly through the blood vessels and capillaries. This poor blood flow would reduce cellular health by limiting nutrients to the cells as well as waste elimination from the cells. To prevent cell damage the body naturally increases blood pressure but this puts more stress on the blood vessels, organs
NATURAL HEALING & BEAUTY OIL As seen on Rachel Hunter’s Tour of Beauty Revered for centuries by Polynesians & Southeast Asians for its remarkable skin anti-aging & healing properties, Dilo oil comes from the nut of the sacred Dilo tree, “the tree of a thousand virtues”. Dilo oil is often called the beauty oil as it can penetrate all three layers of the skin offering exceptional cell hydration & regeneration. It has a unique ability to stimulate the growth of healthy skin cells & this gives it powerful anti-aging & healing properties that can help reduce lines, blemishes, scars & damage to the skin. It also possesses anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antifungal & antioxidant properties. Dilo Oil Supports • Anti-aging & skin regeneration, helps reduce lines, blemishes, scars & stretch marks • Skin hydration • Skin repair & growth, helps feed the skin & stimulate healthy new cells • Wound healing & skin protection from bacteria, viruses & fungus • Most skin problems, rosacea, pimples, ulcers & sores, acne, psoriasis, eczema, dermatitis, rashes, blisters, skin eruptions, warts, insect bites & stings, athlete’s foot, burns, nappy rash etc. • Joint & muscular pain

and heart. Having ACV and H with meals will help prevent protein raising the blood pressure. It also contributes to a feeling of greater well-being because the thinner blood circulates quickly and more easily through the blood vessels. Dr. Jarvis found regular consumption of CV and H to be an excellent health tonic with numerous health attributes. ACV is highly nutritious as it contains all the goodness of the apple in a form that is readily accepted by the body. Good health starts with good digestion and assimilation of nutrients. ACV taken before food will stimulate and promote healthy digestion and assimilation of vital nutrients for good health. A well-functioning digestive system helps prevent disease by neutralising any toxic substances that enter the body. It is important to note not all ACV is produced in the traditional way and results are likely to prove disappointing with these other vinegars.

HOW TO ROAST THE PERFECT WHOLE LEG OF LAMB
STRAWBERRY AND MARSHMALLOW PARFAIT Ingredients
Whole leg of lamb 1-2 tbsp oil Rock salt Freshly ground black pepper 4-5 sprigs fresh rosemary
½ cup Marshmallows, small 350g Sugar 500g Strawberries, hulled 6 Eggs, 4 yolks, 2 whole 2 cups Cream, thick 500g Strawberries, fresh, for garnish
Take the lamb out of the fridge 30min before cooking to allow it to come to room temperature. Preheat the oven to 170 deg C. Place a wire rack in a roasting tray, place the lamb on the rack and brush the meat with the oil and then season with the rock
Directions To prepare the tin, line a narrow terrine mould about 30cm x 10cm with plastic wrap. Set some of the marshmallows along the bottom with some strawberry slices. Place the strawberries in a saucepan with half the sugar. Bring to a gentle simmer over a low heat. The juices will come out, so there is no need to add water. Simmer for no more than 2min, then remove from the heat and mash or purée the mixture. Return it to the pan and set aside. Use an electric beater to whisk the egg yolks and whole eggs with the remaining sugar until thick and mousse-like. Return the strawberry and sugar
mixture to the heat and bring to a simmer. With the beater still running, tip this hot mixture into the eggs and continue whisking until it is really thick and well incorporated. The hot sugar and strawberries “cook” the egg yolk, so it is not raw. Whip the cream until it reach-

HEALTH & BEAUTY
Love your dentures Is it time to swap your generic denture appearance for a beautiful, natural looking smile? Internationally renowned dental technician Richard Greenlees, PGDipCDTech (University of Otago) of Lovebite is the person to call. His special point of difference is rebuilding what he calls the Oral Architecture, the structure and shape of a patient’s face that is often lost following years of wearing dentures. Lovebite dentures address problems that can arise due to years of the patient wearing incorrectly fitting or poorly functioning dentures, such as poor occlusion (the way the teeth come together), aesthetics, function and hygiene. An intricate knowledge and understanding of facial features allows Richard to return facial tissues back to the correct position, reform lips, and restore beauty and confidence. Richard provides a friendly, discreet service and personally guides his patients through the transformation process to create teeth with small nuances in the fabrication, colour and shape. Carmen, a recent patient said in a thank you letter to Richard, “I highly recommend your craftsmanship to anyone wanting a natural looking smile. Because
you do your work in front of your client, one is able to see how meticulous and dedicated you are to ending up with a top class result. My dentures are amazing. They look like one’s own natural teeth. So much time, effort and energy went into the end result. Simply the best.” Richard’s patients have varying needs, from full denture replacement, to first time immediate dentures, implant supported dentures and metal partial dentures. Since he started making teeth in 1980 Richard has travelled extensively, accumulating vast knowledge through training and working in Japan, and running his own practice in the prestigious Harley Street, London for 15 years. He continues to teach his world leading techniques globally. Richard also creates porcelain crowns and veneers, working with like-minded dental professionals. A beautiful new Lovebite smile resembles nature and reflects the patient’s character. It boosts confidence and helps patients to look and feel years younger. To learn more and to view a gallery of stunning Lovebite dentures, visit lovebite.com.
