Lions Christmas cakes
Back in 1971, Ernest Adams, New Zealand’s premier baker, created a special Christmas cake recipe exclusive to Lions – the cakes were moist, full of fruit, did not crumble, had a guaranteed shelf life of no less than two years and, most importantly, tasted delicious.

Now, more than 50 years on, the only change is the refreshed packaging.

The Lions Christmas cakes are still baked by Ernest Adams using the original tried, tested, proved and unique Lions Christmas Cake recipe.
• Over 50% Fruit – very rich and fruity
• Full of flavour – not crumbly
• Large 1.2kg cake – 18 x 18 x 5 cms
• Minimum 2-year shelf life
• Great Value! $20.00 per cake

To order and support the Lions Club of Kapiti email your name and address to

tennis grand slams

Harry from Waikanae



Serena Williams has the most Grand Slam wins (23) among active players. While she has won seven titles each at Wimbledon at the Australian Open,

she has won her home Grand Slam six times starting all the way back in 1999. She has also won the French Open thrice.

Serena Williams has the most Grand Slam wins (23) among active players. While she has won seven titles each at Wimbledon at the Australian Open,

she has won her home Grand Slam six times starting all the way back in 1999. She has also won the French Open thrice.

Why does the tennis world claim serena williams as the goat. This is absolute garbage.

She is nothing more than the best tennis player of the modern era and has never won a grand slam.

She has only won 23 major tennis titles and would be thrashed by Steffi graf and Margaret court who is the goat.



What is a Tennis Grand Slam?

Originally coined in 1933, Grand Slam refers to a player winning all four major tennis tournaments in a calendar year, including the Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon, and the US Open.

The achievement is so rare that only five players have completed the feat in their careers

To date, only five players, male or female, have achieved the feat playing singles. Here’s a list of the players who have completed a Grand Slam.

Player Year Country Discipline

Don Budge 1938 America Singles

Rod Laver 1962 Australia Singles

Rod Laver 1969 Australia Singles

Maureeen Connolly 1953 United States Singles

Margaret Court 1970 Australia Singles

Steffi Graf 1988 Germany Singles

Rod Laver’s accomplishment is unique because he not only achieved it twice but did so as an amateur before and after the Open Era, which began in 1968.
