Plans for final 

section 

of pathway 

progressing 

THE SPEED limit on Main Rd, 

Redcliffs, could be lowered to 

40km/h as part of the multimillion 

dollar project to complete 

the final section of Te Ara Ihutai 

Christchurch Coastal Pathway. 

The speed limit reduction is one 

of several proposed changes the 

city council is seeking community 

feedback on as it moves to finalise 

plans for the final section of the 

pathway, around Moncks Bay. 

“The final section of the Christchurch 

Coastal Pathway runs 

through a complex coastal environment,’’ 

city council transport 

planning and delivery manager 

Lynette Ellis said. 

“We are going to be building 

in a narrow, busy corridor along 

the coastal marine edge that has 

wildlife and natural hazards so it 

requires a lot of detailed planning. 

“Our goal is to substantially 

upgrade the existing narrow grit 

path to create a 4m-wide, safe, 

high-quality pathway for a variety 

of users. •Turn to page 5 

CONNECTION: A 4m-wide section will complete the Christchurch Coastal Pathway. It will be accessible to a variety of users.

Meeting to discuss 

rising sea levels 

PEOPLE LIVING in the 

Lyttelton and Mt Herbert areas 

will be the first to be consulted 

on over the impact of rising sea 

levels. 

The city council has agreed 

to start adaptation planning 

with low-lying 

coastal and 

inland communities 

likely to 

be impacted by 

rising sea levels. 

A meeting 

will be held 

Mike 

Davidson 

on Monday, 

6-7.30pm, Allandale 

Hall, 

Governors Bay. 

Said urban development and 

transport committee chairman 

Mike Davidson: “We have a big 

coastline and a lot of low-lying 

land, so one of the most significant 

challenges facing us is how 

do we respond to the coastal 

hazards caused by climate 

change and sea level rise. 

“First up, it’s important we 

have a city-wide conversation 

about the adaptation planning 

process as there are implications 

for all residents, not just people 

CONSULTATION: The city council will be talking to 

communities likely to be impacted by rising sea levels. 

living in coastal and low-lying 

communities. We have some big 

decisions ahead of us that will 

likely have an impact not just on 

this generation, but on generations 

to come. 

“We then need to work closely 

with our first tranche of communities, 

to develop an adaptation 

plan together. 

“The adaptation planning 

programme that we have 

PHOTO: NEWSLINE 

formally endorsed today is 

based on the Ministry for the 

Environment’s guidance and 

puts community engagement 

at the centre of our decisionmaking.” 

The city council sessions will 

give interested residents across 

the district an opportunity to 

learn more about the coastal 

hazards adaptation planning 

programme. 

Spirit of Enderby first 

to use new berth 

LYTTELTON’S new $67 

million cruise ship berth 

was meant to be vessel 

empty for a while – until 

Spirit of Enderby arrived 

on Monday. 

The Christchurchbased 

Heritage Expeditions 

flagship has claimed 

the honour of being the 

first cruise ship to berth at 

the new facility. 

The berth will be officially 

opened next Wednesday. 

Covid-19 will mean cruise 

ships arriving in Lyttelton will be 

scare, if non-existent, until the 

pandemic is over. 

But the Spirit of Enderby was 

a welcome insight of what is to 

come. 

Lyttelton Port Company 

engagement and sustainability 

general manager Phil de Joux 

said he was not expecting the 

berth would be used by a cruise 

ship so soon. 

The port was also busy at the 

moment so having the new berth 

was helping ease congestion. 

“We’ve been looking at other 

uses for it … a Korean Antarctic 

research ship will be using it 

next week but at the moment we 

actually have quite a bit of berth 

HONOUR: The Spirit of Enderby was 

the first ship to use Lyttelton’s new 

cruise liner berth. 

congestion in our inner harbour, 

so it will be good,” said de Joux. 

De Joux said that in spite of the 

dampener Covid-19 had put on 

the cruise industry, he was proud 

his team was able to finish the 

berth on time and on budget. 

“We are nearly at the end of five 

years of reconstruction now following 

the earthquakes. It is the 

end of an era and it is a great asset 

for the future.” 

The Spirit of Enderby sailed 

directly from Vladivostok in 

eastern Russia and the crew have 

been in isolation for 44 days. 

Russian crew members received 

another Covid-19 test on Monday 

morning and have to remain on 

the ship for now. 

The 50-passenger ship will sail 

to Invercargill to pick up its first 

passengers on November 24 for a 

Kiwi-only cruise.

Pathway to marina under way 

CONTRACTORS have started 

constructing a pathway, two 

new pedestrian crossings and 

relocating the Sutton Quay 

port access gate, creating a 

pedestrian link from Norwich 

Quay to Te Ana Marina in 

Lyttelton. 

Currently, there is no 

pedestrian 

access from 

the quay to Te 

Ana Marina, 

meaning 

people must 

either use the 

stairs from 

Simeon Quay 

to the back 

Andrew 

Turner 

of Te Ana 

Marina, or 

walk down to 

Godley Quay. 

Banks Peninsula Ward 

councillor and Deputy Mayor 

Andrew Turner said it was great 

to seee the Lyttelton community 

gain additional access to the 

waterfront. 

“Whakaraupō/Lyttelton 

Harbour is a special place 

to many people. We know 

that particularly during the 

Covid-19 level 4 lockdown 

earlier this year Te Ana Marina 

was a very popular spot for 

locals to walk and enjoy some 

fresh air,” he said. 

“Providing this walkway 

will mean people can now 

easily walk from Lyttelton’s 

town centre to Te Ana 

Marina. 

“I’m looking forward to 

seeing more families and 

visitors down on the waterfront 

this summer – this is the perfect 

spot for a picnic, a walk along 

the promenade or a chance to 

take in the stunning harbour 

views.” 

Lyttelton Port Company 

engagement and sustainability 

general manager Phil de 

Joux said since Te Ana 

Marina was opened in 2018, 

it has been fantastic to see the 

community use the recreational 

area as a space to connect and 

enjoy. 

“While the new pathway is 

being constructed, no vehicles 

or pedestrians will be able to 

access the inner harbour via 

Sutton Quay. Alternative access 

and traffic management is in 

place for LPC’s customers and 

port users.” 

The new pathway is expected 

to be completed by mid- 

December. 

“We’re expecting to have 

the pedestrian pathway ready 

in time for the community 

to enjoy over the summer 

holidays,” de Joux said. 

Construction 

expected to start 

in June next year 

•From page 1 

“We also want to create some new 

pedestrian connections so we can 

make the pathway more accessible 

for locals,’’ Ellis said. 

“This will require some changes, 

including relocation of some existing 

bus stops and removal of some 

on-street parking on Main Rd. 

“With considerably more pedestrians 

and cyclists expected, a 

lower speed limit will help to keep 

everyone safe as they move through 

the area.’’ 

To help maintain the availability 

of on-street parking in this popular 

area, the city council is proposing 

to upgrade the car park on the 

pump station site on Main Rd and 

add angle parking on Cliff St and 

Bayview Rd. 

“We are working towards a construction 

start in the middle of next 

year,’’ Ellis said. 

“We want to get this final section 

of the pathway completed so we can 

realise the Christchurch Coastal 

Pathway Group’s vision of having 

a coastal pathway that stretches all 

the way from Ferrymead Bridge 

through to Scarborough.’’ 

Construction of the final section 

of the pathway is being funded 

by the Government as part of its 

Covid-19 response. It is one of 

the ‘shovel ready’ projects that are 

designed to stimulate the economy. 

Christchurch 

Hospital’s 

Emergency 

Department 

is on the move. 

From 7.30am on 

Wednesday 18 November, 

if you need emergency 

hospital care, you’ll need 

to come to the new 

Emergency Department 

in Waipapa – Christchurch 

Hospital, Hagley. 

Entry to the Emergency Department drop off 

area is off Riccarton Ave. 

Turn left in front of Christchurch Women’s 

Hospital for drop off and accessible parking 

in front of the new building. 

Please keep the 

Emergency Department 

for emergencies.

SLOW: Many water supplies on Banks Peninsula are stream-fed and are 

now running low due to dry conditions. Residents are being warned to save 

water. 

Residents urged to save 

water as streams run low 

STREAM-FED water 

supplies on Banks 

Peninsula are dropping, 

and the city council is 

pleading for residents to 

start saving water. 

Data from the city 

council shows Akaroa’s 

cumulative rainfall this 

year is the lowest it has 

been in a decade – its total 

rainfall this year is 447mm, 

less than half the 10-year 

average of 957mm. 

Duvauchelle’s water supply 

was also under extra 

pressure, with the streams 

that supply it running particularly 

low for November. 

“Most water supplies in 

Banks Peninsula 

are 

fed by small 

streams, 

which are 

usually at 

their lowest 

when Summer 

water demand 

is at its 

Helen 

Beaumont 

highest,” city council head 

of three waters and waste 

Helen Beaumont said. 

“Right now, streams 

are exceptionally low and 

expected to keep dropping, 

so we need residents to get 

on board early and start 

saving water now please.’’ 

The city council had not 

imposed water restrictions, 

but were watching weather 

forecasts, stream flows, 

and daily water use “very 

closely.” 

“Even if we get scattered 

rain over coming days, it 

won’t do much to change 

the overall situation with 

the streams,’’ Beaumont 

said. 

The city council also 

needed to ensure it was not 

taking too much water from 

the streams, as doing so 

would have an impact on 

the plant, fish and insects 

that live in the waterways, 

as well as the long-term 

quality of the water.

Redcliffs School’s steel 

construction award-winning 

THE STEEL construction 

of Redcliffs School has won 

an award. 

The school was opened 

by Prime Minister Jacinda 

Ardern in June, after being 

forced to move from its old 

site by the February 22, 

2011, earthquake. 

This week, it was singled 

out in the Excellence in 

Steel Awards. 

Christchurch firm VIP 

Steel won the Up To $1.5 

million category for the 

way it used steel to get 

around quake and coastal 

ground challenges. 

A Steel Construction 

NZ spokesperson said the 

judges were impressed 

with the construction of 

the school and its use of 

blended materials, and 

commended the team’s 

focus on buildability and 

collaboration. 

“The team has shown 

out-of-the-box thinking 

to produce a resilient 

building on a site with 

a history of earthquake 

damage.” 

The site sits in a flood 

plain and a coastal inundation 

zone, and is subject to 

lateral spread and liquefaction 

settlement. 

Almost 170 structural 

steel industry leaders and 

specialists gathered at 

Skyline, Queenstown, to 

celebrate the best of the 

best at the awards. 

VIP Steel also won a second 

award for The Spur in 

the Standalone Residential 

category.

ADVERTORIAL 

Customer feedback 

sparks A-Four-Dable idea 

at Four Square Redcliffs 

When Four Square Redcliffs 

opened its doors in June 2020, 

operator Heath De Garnham 

promised the team would have 

their ears wide open to listen 

to their customers. 

It’s a promise the team are 

staying true to, says Heath 

“we’re a community store 

and a big part of being a part 

of a tight knit community is 

supporting each other, listening 

and responding to what our 

customers want and need.” 

One message the Four Square 

Redcliffs team have been 

hearing loud and clear is that 

providing excellent value for 

money, as well as convenience 

and choice in their community 

store is extremely important. 

The team put their heads 

together and have taken action, 

introducing ‘Local Deal’, specials 

that are personally selected by 

the Four Square Redcliffs team, 

plus a brand new idea called 

‘A-Four-Dable Everyday’. 

The A-Four-Dable concept 

came about as a result of 

listening to our customers says 

Heath, “they’ve been telling 

us they’d appreciate some 

certainty around the price of their 

everyday grocery items.” 

It was a challenge the Four 

Square Redcliffs team were keen 

to find a solution for and set 

about identifying everyday items 

that regularly feature in most 

Redcliffs resident’s weekly shop. 

With fruit and veg, bread, milk, 

cheese, yogurt, biscuits, frozen 

fruit, beer, wine and shampoo 

all on the A-Four-Dable list, Four 

Square Redcliffs customers 

can now look out for the yellow 

A-Four-Dable tickets and choose 

them in the confidence they’ll 

be able to get everything they 

need at a consistent everyday 

price, with the convenience of 

shopping and supporting local. 

With our combination of specials 

and our new A-Four-Dable 

everyday option, our customers 

can now have the best of both 

worlds” says Heath. 

“It’s fantastic to be able to 

bring new ideas to life at 

Four Square Redcliffs, at 

the moment everyone is 

watching the dollars, 

so looking out for the 

A-Four-Dable shelf 

tickets makes Four 

Square Redcliffs 

a really easy 

place to shop 

for the every- 

day things you want and need 

while supporting your community 

store.” 

So come on in, check out the 

Local Deals and new A-Four- 

Dable prices. We’re here for the 

Redcliffs community and we’d 

love your support by making 

Four Square Redcliffs your 

regular place to shop. It’s very 

A-Four-Dable!

Surf club engages with community 

Tayors Mistake Surf Life 

Saving Club volunteer 

Dave Mills reports on 

what is happening at the 

club 

THE TAYLORS Mistake Surf 

Life Saving Club is in great 

shape. Our volunteer lifeguard 

talent and depth is strong. Our 

junior programme is bulging 

at the seams with enthusiasm 

and numbers, and our new 

clubrooms will be finished in 

December. 

The club is also very proud 

of its high-performance programme 

for those who choose 

to compete in addition to their 

volunteer lifeguard role. 

The club recognises that the 

world has changed, and as more 

of the wider community are 

likely to enjoy more of the local 

environment this summer, our 

volunteers are very ready to help 

the community enjoy the beach 

and stay safe. 

To try and reach out to the 

community, a small community 

engagement project has been 

developed and is now underway. 

We are using our social media 

sites (Facebook and Instagram) 

to introduce the community to 

some of our volunteers, and to 

allow our volunteers to tell our 

TALENT: Josh Ryan on Taylors Mistake beach creating a community engagement video

new clubrooms under construction. 

story to the community. We are 

fortunate to be helped with this 

project by Josh Ryan, a talented 

postgraduate marketing student 

from Canterbury University. 

Each week we will post short 

video clips fronted by our volunteers, 

as they seek to highlight in 

their own way the beauty of Taylors 

Mistake, what the beach and 

surrounds has to offer, and to 

highlight that the public should 

feel very confident approaching 

our friendly volunteer lifeguards 

to ensure they stay safe and enjoy 

their day at the beach. 

We even have a surprise in 

store with a video clip during the 

summer from one of our famous 

Taylors lifeguard TV stars! 

We are reaching out to the 

community to highlight our volunteers 

as real people, with real 

day jobs and diverse personalities. 

They are all passionate about 

the beach that they help keep 

safe. We are a small club, but we 

are hoping that as people engage 

with and share our videos on 

social media, more of the public 

will see the talent we have in our 

volunteers. We hope that the 

public will recognise just how 

approachable our volunteers are. 

We are delighted that the Sumner 

Ferrymead Foundation has 

supported this project. We see 

strong alignment with our values 

and the values that the foundation 

promotes. 

Stay close to our social media 

sites over the summer and check 

out the stories of some of our 

volunteers. 

Our volunteers will be 

patrolling the beach each 

weekend and on public holidays 

starting from Show weekend. 

Remember – swim between the 

flags. 

When we call, hundreds 

of Kiwi businesses answer. 

At Fire and Emergency, 80% of our people are volunteers, many running or working at businesses 

just like this. In an emergency, their businesses proudly allow them to rush out and help.

Preparing young for life’s adversities 

Myriad groups help 

keep our community 

moving. Reporter Bea 

Gooding speaks to 

Life Education Trust 

Canterbury community 

engagement manager 

Andy Gray about why 

the trust has been an 

iconic fixture in schools 

for the past 30 years 

and why he’s involved 

Could you tell me a bit 

about what the Life Education 

Trust does, and how it came 

to be what it is today in 

Canterbury? 

The Life Education Trust 

started over 30 years ago, which 

started in Canterbury. There’s 

now 32 regional trusts across 

the country, and one national 

branch. The vision is to inspire 

tamariki and rangatahi to make 

positive choices and to give them 

the power to do that. The trust 

addresses challenges including 

obesity, substance use, mental 

health and well-being and 

bullying. 

We operate in three mobile 

classrooms in Canterbury, 

they’re like big container shells 

that have been turned into 

REWARDING: Life Education Trust Canterbury community engagement manager Andy 

Gray is passionate about inspiring children to make the right decisions in life. 


classrooms and are moved 

around different schools – 

whether it was as far as Omihi in 

North Canterbury, right down 

to Rakaia. Whether schools have 

35 students or 500 students, we 

end up making our way there no 

matter where they are. 

What issues is the trust 

currently facing in the wake of 

Covid-19? 

Quite a few in all fairness – 

when Covid-19 hit during the 

first lockdown, even though we 

were still continuing to support 

the teachers and tamariki during 

lockdown, we didn’t get any 

school fees come in, and the 

funders that we usually used 

were all closed down. 

It’s been tough, but we 

managed to get through it 

and we’re in a better position 

now. We reached out to a lot 

of people that have done quite 

well throughout Covid-19, like 

supermarkets, and to the Rata 

Foundation and Lottery Grants 

Board who have helped us out. 

With Covid-19 it’s a doubleedged 

sword. It’s great that 

we’re busier now and we’re 

looking to expand to a fourth 

classroom because of it. But the 

double-edged side of that sword 

is obviously with increased 

demand it means that more 

people are affected, there are 

higher anxiety levels. 

We’ve learned a lot about 

mental health from the 

earthquakes in the past 10 years 

and also the mosque attacks 

where kids have been affected. 

Things like a lack of employment 

that comes from it just filters 

through to the kids, so we expect 

to see increased demand over the 

next few months. 

The trust has been iconic in 

Canterbury schools for the past 

30 years. What do you attribute 

towards its success? 

Obviously, the most 

memorable thing about Life 

Education is Harold the Giraffe. 

But the reason why I think we’re 

so iconic is because we tend to 

react to the issues currently at 

hand.

‘It’s the kids’ reactions which I find the most rewarding’ 

•From page 11 

We don’t get any government 

or Ministry of Education funding, 

so we aren’t led by their 

agenda, and it’s why we’re the 

number one health education 

provider. We don’t want to be led 

by what they want, which is why 

we work with teachers to adapt 

[the lesson]. I think that’s what 

makes us so successful. 

Why did you decide to join 

the trust? 

I’ve got a wee eight-year-old 

boy and things are a little bit different 

now than back in my day; 

kids have got different challenges 

now, so I just wanted to make 

sure I was getting in touch with 

what was going on. Kids seem to 

be a lot more involved and more 

aware of what’s happening around 

them because of social media and 

access to the internet. That was 

my excuse to get involved and 

understand what’s happening in 

my own child’s head. 

What are the rewarding parts 

of your job? 

The kids – when Harold comes 

on board, the kids wander in and 

when they see him, they all get 

pretty excited to hear what he 

has to say. It’s the kids’ reactions 

which I find the most rewarding. 

Like most jobs, it’s not always 

fun and games. What can be 

challenging about your role? 

I think seeing the statistics 

that are pretty grim, like when I 

hear about the teen suicide rates 

or how many kids are stressed. 

About 35 per cent of kids are 

stressed at least once a week. 

It’s like, bloody hell, these kids 

are eight or nine-years-old, they 

shouldn’t be stressed, they should 

be watching Pokémon on TV or 

something. 

Tell me a bit about where life 

began for you – where did you 

grow up? How about family? 

I was born in Salford, UK. 

When I was about 13-years-old 

my folks decided to ship us all 

over, with my brothers and sister, 

and start life afresh over here. I 

ended up going to school down 

the road at Christchurch Boys’ 

High School, and eventually at 

the University of Canterbury. 

After travelling overseas for a 

while, I came back and became 

the director at Specsavers (Papanui) 

after opening up a franchise 

here. After selling that I was 

lucky that I had a bit more free to 

pick and choose the jobs I wanted 

to do, and that’s when the Life 

Education Trust job came up. 

BIRDS OF THE ESTUARY 

ICON: The Life Education Trust has been visiting Canterbury 

schools for more than 30 years. 

My two brothers live in Sunshine 

Coast and Gold Coast in 

Australia. My sister is here in 

Christchurch so she’s not very 

far from me, and my parents 

are retired now and live in the 

Hurunui District. 

Do you remember much from 

life back in England? 

I remember quite a lot of it. It’s 

quite a rough spot where we were, 

a lot of cars were being nicked 

every night and there were a lot 

of fights, you could just watch it 

from your window - that’s what it 

was all to me. 

One of my favourite parts 

about my home town is the 

football, everyone enjoyed a bit 

of soccer. You could play it in 

the streets, you’d just jump over 

the back fence after school and 

go play with your friends in the 

streets. 

Aside from your work, what 

do you like to do in your spare 

time? 

I enjoy any sport, especially 

soccer being English and all. 

I’ve always the idea of making 

something myself so I make short 

films on the side. 

I make any type of short film, 

it’s just a matter of writing a 

script and trying to gain funding 

to do it. 

I’ve always loved movies, the 

idea for me growing up was to 

become either a football player, a 

fireman or a moviemaker. 

Tanya Jenkins is the manager of the Avon-Heathcote Estuary Ihutai Trust, a non-profit organisation formed in 2002 to 

protect one of New Zealand’s most important coastal wetlands. This is her last Birds of the Estuary column. A new column 

will start next week – Estuary Matters. 

Greenfinch is a sparrow lookalike 

THE GREENFINCH was introduced 

from England when some 100 birds 

were released here between 1862 and 

1868. 

Like many other introduced birds, 

they rather enjoyed our environment 

and settled here nicely with the result 

that they are now commonly found 

throughout New Zealand. 

This greenfinch is a small bird and 

is actually often confused for a house 

sparrow due to its size and its plain 

brownish colourings. But then spring 

arrives and the male produces its 

stunning green and yellow breeding 

plumage and certainly can no longer 

be called plain. 

Nests are being built in early spring 

when four to six eggs are produced, and 

this can be repeated twice during the 

nesting season. The female incubates 

the eggs alone but is assisted by the 

male who will bring her food to the 

nest to save her from having to leave the 

eggs alone. Feeding the chicks is done 

by both the parent birds. 

They are not fussy eaters and they 

will eat most tree seeds, but the seeds 

of the pine trees do tend to be their 

favourite and that is why you may 

have seen the greenfinches along the 

South Brighton side of the estuary 

more often than the hillside. 

Apart from seeds though 

they will also at caterpillars, aphids, 

moths and other small bugs. Fill up 

your bird feeders, the greenfinch is 

easily attracted by “wild bird seed” 

available from supermarkets.

Contacts 

by Mark Watson 

The unforgettable new book from award-winning writer 

and comedian Mark Watson. One man’s last journey. One 

hundred and fifty-eight chances to save his life. James 

Chiltern boards the 23:50 sleeper train from London to 

Edinburgh with two pork pies, six beers and a packet of 

chocolate digestives. At 23:55 he sends a message to all 

158 people in his contacts, telling them that he plans to end 

his life in the morning. He then switches his phone to flight 

mode. He’s said goodbye. To him, it’s the end of his story – 

and time to crack open the biscuits. But across the world, 158 

phones are lighting up with a notification. Phones belonging to his mum. 

His sister. His ex-best friend. The woman who broke his heart. People he’s 

lost touch with. People he barely knows. And for them, the message is only 

the beginning of the journey. Funny and wise, tender and deeply moving, 

Contacts is a beautiful story about the weight of loneliness, the importance 

of kindness – and how it’s never too late to reach out 

Betrayals 

by Bridget Collins 

From the Number 1 bestselling author of THE BINDING. If everything 

in your life was based on a lie Would you risk it all to tell the truth? At 

Montverre, an exclusive academy tucked away in the mountains, the 

best and brightest are trained for excellence in the grand jeu: an arcane 

and mysterious contest. Léo Martin was once a student there, but lost 

his passion for the grand jeu following a violent tragedy. Now he returns 

in disgrace, exiled to his old place of learning with his political career in 

tatters. Montverre has changed since he studied there, even allowing a 

woman, Claire Dryden, to serve in the grand jeu’s highest office of Magister 

Ludi. When Léo first sees Claire he senses an odd connection with her, 

though he’s sure they have never met before. Both Léo and Claire have 

built their lives on lies. And as the legendary Midsummer Game, the climax 

of the year, draws closer, secrets are whispering in the walls…

Directions 

Select about 12 of the best berries 

for the top. Put the rest in a 

saucepan with 3 tablespoons of 

sugar and the water. 

Bring to a gentle simmer, then 

cook for about 2min. Place the 

cut sponge pieces in the bottom 

of a clear glass bowl. Add the 

Grand Marnier and allow it to 

soak in. Ladle in the strawberries 

and juice. 

To make the custard, beat the 

egg yolks and sugar until light and 

thick. Heat the milk and vanilla 

bean in a heavy-based saucepan 

until almost boiling. Tip the hot 

milk onto the egg mixture in a 

bowl and stir well to combine. 

Rinse the pan that the milk 

was heated in, return it to the 

heat and strain the egg, sugar and 

milk mixture into it. Carefully 

reheat the custard, stirring constantly 

until the mixture thickens 

enough to coat the spoon. 

Do not let this boil, as the mixture 

will curdle. If the mixture 

starts to curdle around the edges, 

immediately remove from the 

heat and whisk vigorously until 

smooth. 

Once the custard is cool, 

tip it over the strawberries. 

Finally, lightly whip the cream 

then spread it over the custard. 

Decorate with reserved halved 

strawberries. Chill before serving.

Sound of thunder from V8 SUV 

THERE’S LITTLE doubt that 

the way we view automobiles is 

changing with a global demand 

for fuel efficiency and fewer 

emissions. 

Most manufacturers are 

looking at ways to address those 

issues, and that’s showing with 

an ever-increasing number of 

hybrids and electric vehicles 

reaching our market. 

I’m not rebelling against the 

electric revolution, but the reality 

is I’ll find it hard to give up my 

desire for internal combustion 

engines, and the bigger and 

more powerful they are, the 

better. 

Mercedes-Benz has already 

introduced an electric vehicle 

down under and the company 

is indicating more will arrive en 

masse. 

Where that leaves its big cars, 

and the big engines, I don’t know, 

but in the interim I can be very 

grateful that I’ve sampled some 

of the best engines to come out of 

Germany, as well as some of the 

most powerful. 

My latest foray into the highperformance 

driveline was in 

the AMG GLC 63S sport utility 

vehicle, a mid-size wagon that 

also comes in coupe-like form, 

both sharing the 4-litre, twinturbocharged 

V8. 

It’s a monster in terms of power 

outputs – 375kW and 700Nm – 

the latter available all of the way 

from 1750rpm to 4500rpm and, 

if you take into account peak 

power is on tap all of the way 

to 6250rpm, it’s no wonder I’m 

hooked. 

The GLC is a super-quick, 

high top speed wagon, and you’d 

expect nothing less from the 

performance arm of Mercedes- 

Benz. AMG claims a 3.8sec 

standstill to 100km/h acceleration 

time along with a governed 

250km/h top end. 

These figures are fantastic, 

making the GLC one of the 

quickest cars I’ve driven, and it 

does so in a way that you know 

you are travelling fast; even in 

standard mode the engine is 

quite audible, it bellows out of 

the exhaust and if you want extra 

sound a console-mounted pushbutton 

will increase the decibels. 

The 63S fairly thunders under 

acceleration. 

This engine is utilised in a wide 

FUNCTIONAL: A cavernous load area lies under the tailgate 

of the GLC 63S. 

MERCEDES-BENZ GLC AMG 63S: Speed and acceleration which is uncharacteristic for a 

sport utility vehicle. 

range of Mercedes-Benz product, 

and in some cases it drives 

through to the rear wheels 

only, delivering a true sports 

car feel, but the GLC has drive 

to all four wheels and that adds 

an element of reassurance. As a 

driver, you know that delivering 

that power to the ground is going 

to be channelled in a fashion 

that won’t catch you out with 

oversteer. 

If you also take into account 

the huge 21in wheels with 

massive tyres then grip levels 

are high. Even so, on my highcountry 

evaluation drive there 

were a couple of instances 

when I felt traction control 

complaining, such as powering 

out of a corner. 

Drive is channelled through 

a nine-speed automatic 

transmission, and there are 

varying drive modes that the 

driver can select or individualise 

to suit his/her driving style. 

Even in standard mode the 

engine management protocols 

are structured so that the driver 

can enjoy the V8 experience at 

all times; it rumbles and burbles 

away, tantalising with its response 

and urgency. 

• Price – Mercedes-Benz 

AMG GLC 63S, $184,400 

• Dimensions – Length, 

4744mm; width, 

2090mm; height, 

1577mm 

• Configuration – V8, 

four-wheel-drive, 3982cc, 

375kW, 700Nm, ninespeed 

automatic 

• Performance – 

0-100km/h, 3.8sec 

• Fuel usage – 12.2l/100km 

Not that it is a handful in lowspeed 

situations, the 63S 

has perfect inner-city manners, 

the combination of brawn 

and beauty is an engineering 

masterpiece. 

The GLC is a true SUV, it 

has a cavernous rear load area, 

and for five adults there is 

comfort in abundance. It is 

also built in the traditional 

Mercedes-Benz style that is high 

in luxury and specification, 

sharing the look and feel with a 

layout that is systematic across 

most of the Mercedes-Benz 

range. 

Column space doesn’t allow 

comprehensive detailing of the 

features and fitment. However, 

it’s fair to say the GLC wants for 

little and the interior is state-ofthe-art 

with all of the electronic 

goodies you’d want in a car 

that sits towards $200k. Yes, if 

you add in a lot of the options 

from Mercedes-Benz’s extensive 

catalogue of extras, the base price 

tag of $184,400 could be well 

stretched. 

However, for my money the 

pleasure to be had from the 

fabulous bi-turbo engine would 

be well worth the outlay. And 

don’t go believing that it is going 

to overly create havoc with the 

environment, as, for all of its 

brute force, the GLC 63S has 

respectable fuel usage figures. 

AMG claims a 12.2-litre per 

100km combined cycle average, 

which sits well with the trip 

computer’s 12.8l/100km figure 

during my time in the car. 

I know for certain the drive 

in the GLC 63S won’t be my 

last in a V8, but I do know such 

opportunities will become fewer 

and further between. 

For those who feel like me, now 

is the time to buy before they face 

extinction.

BAY HARBOUR 

PAGE 25 

This superbly placed property enjoys 

tremendous views over the ocean and 

across to the rugged hillside of Taylors 

Mistake and Godley Heads, uniting the 

countryside with the seaside. Sit and 

watch the boats and ships coming and 

going every day from the comfort of 

your living room. 

Recently renovated throughout with 

Cedar accents adorning the exterior to 

deliver aesthetic appeal. 

An exceptionally sleek kitchen provides 

the focus for entertaining with attractive 

and sophisticated appliances including a 

wine fridge, coffee maker, twin oven and 

an integrated fridge/freezer ensuring 

you’ll be the host with the most. A dedicated 

dining zone and spacious living 

area with bamboo floors, open to a deck 

that spans the front of the house 

providing a backdrop for the view. 

The home’s distinct u-shaped formation 

creates a beautiful sheltered alfresco 

setting where you can entertain in style 

or soak up the sunshine. The many fulllength 

windows of the house ensure that 

this outdoor space still feels connected 

to the views while remaining sheltered 

from virtually all winds. 

Four bedrooms and a study can accommodate 

the demands of modern living, 

with the master naturally featuring an 

ensuite and walk-in wardrobe and doors 

onto the patio. A sizeable family 

bathroom with walk-in shower caters 

to the rest of the household. Downstairs 

the 4th bedroom is an ideal guest wing 

with its own ensuite and sitting area. 

Designed with comfort in mind; solar 

heating provides energy efficiency and 

serves the radiator heating system while 

underfloor heating provides warmth 

underfoot. An extensive speaker system 

and new roof contribute additional 

appeal to this sensational abode that’s 

proudly perched upon an expansive 

1135sqm gentle sloping section. 

This idyllic, hillside escape is situated 

in-between Taylors Mistake and Sumner, 

both of which are a comfortable drive at 

the bottom of the hill. With lots of recreation 

on your doorstep and Sumner’s 

innumerable amenities your family can 

ensure an effortless lifestyle living here. 

Visit a home you may never want to 

leave. Our owners are building and are 

definite sellers so prospective purchasers 

should proceed swiftly.
