The fire started at Pegasus Beach on Wednesday 2 November and due to the high winds it swiftly headed south towards Christchurch.
The Woodend Holiday Park is currently in the direct path of the fire and therefore residents were evacuated. As of this morning, 200 hectares of land has now been damaged in the blaze.
Twelve trucks and 50 firefighters remain on the scene and were doing everything they could overnight to slow the fire’s progress, including using heavy machinery to create firebreaks. There had been no known loss of homes or other property however the fire is still active as of 9am this morning and the smoke can be detected as far as the Port Hills.
What you need to know:
- The fire is parallel to the beach from Pegasus Beach towards Woodend Beach and public should avoid this area
- Waimakariri Civil Defence and Police are assisting residents and have set up a hub for evacuees at Woodend Community Centre
- There will be an update for residents at the community centre at 10am
Further updates will be in the comments below this post.

Does anyone know the Protest group responsable for impeeding the traffic flow through the Harewood Rd./Greers Rd. controlled intersection in Papanui.

The 30KPH speed reduction has been in force for nearly 8 weeks without any sign of action/construction in the area. Or, is it a cheap way to warehouse cones and advisory road management items? It sure is a distraction/disruption to road travel. Possibly a softening up for the impending single laneing of the carrageway to accomidate the cycle lanes.

I was spiraling out of control

I don't have many memories from my childhood, but the memories I do have relate to food - picnics with bacon and egg pie, my mother’s home cooking, Sunday bread. I was never much of a sweet tooth, but instead I preferred savouries, pastries, breads and the like. I grew up on a farm and food was plentiful and was never restricted and I lived a pretty healthy, active lifestyle.
Once I hit my teenage years, however, I remember starting to get worried about my weight. (I'll just mention here that I don't think I have ever been overweight and I certainly wasn't overweight as a teenager). I'm not sure how this all came about, but it was around the time I started getting interested in boys and my body was changing. I would stare at myself in the mirror and think I was fat.

I scanned this from the 1896 publication "Pick-me-up". Thought it may be appealing to some. Yes 1896 was the date of publication. Cheers all and don't drop the ball.
There's a fine line between being helpful and minding your own business.
