Where there's smogthere's overreactionWintercanbeabitofashock

for many migrants to SouthCanterbury, particularlythose ofus from the north.

When I arrived last April,the first advice I was givenwas to layina good stock offirewood.

I have to be honest and

admitthat Idi(in'tthinkthat

would be necessary.But my first electricity bill,

and my first five-degree frost.,soon convinced me otherwise.

Although I was too late toget anything dry.

Nevertheless, that logburner in my lounge was afamily saviour.

I also noticed the smogwhen I ventured outdoors

after 6pm. However, that wasrare given the airtemperature and I noticed ithad all generally dissipatedby morning.

Then IreadthatECan-

this strange beast that is theprovince's regional council -wastalkingaboutthesmogasifitwasakillershroudandwewere in 1950s London.

And how theyweregoing tocleanupTimaru'sairbycompulsion ifnecessary.

This was accompanied by ahectoringwoman, frowningout from the back oflocal

buses, accusing me ofnotknowing how to start a fireproperly. Yes, Timaru's smogwas all my fault

Then the local editorial

writer weighed in, saying

Laying , *1Down

the Laws

Timartihad to clean up its actExcept there's a small

problem. Exactly, what is theproblem?

Where's the proofthat theoccasional nightoflingeringfire fumes causes anyproblem at all? There's beennone. In fact, the lack offactual evidence has been

startlingIn its placetherehas been a

misguided fanaticism that"something mustbedone"whenthere isn'treallyaproblematall

There are no health

problems, and there havebeen no hospital admissionsor respiratory attacks as aconsequence.

And why's that? Because99% ofTimaru is indoors on

the freezing nights thatproduce the worst fire smoke.

And the other 1% soon will

be-because no-one wants to

stand outside at 10pm,freezing. Strange that

Which is why I say: we mustresistthese so called "cleanair" advocates.

All theywill achieve is thedoubling ofour already

expensive electricilybills andthat will really send people tohospital, especially the poor,the elderly and the vulnerablebecause they can no longerafford to heattheir homes

4properly.

And anybodywho wants todonate this soft northernfamily some ofthe locallog,please don't letme stop you.Come winter, I'll burnwithgratitude and pride.

RETIREMENT

VILLAGES

I've said this before, but it'sworththe repeat-SouthCanterbury has got somethingspecial going. School numbersare up, business is booming,new businesses are arrivingand new retirementvillagesare being built

The complex underconstruction atElloughtonGardens is the latest. They aregood business foranytownand attract solid citizens,well-heeled and with arealinterest in volunteer work

Retirementvillages arenotrest-homes-they're vibrantcommunities.

And they confirm theongoing desirability ofTimaru.

Mr Whittaker said theMackenzie District Council

building, also located in MainSt, had also received an AED.

"It used to be in the
