Country Life Summer Edition January 2
BODY:
A selection of some of the best Country Life stories from 2015. In this episode: Golden Reflections, Ponds of Gold and Woosters of Orira.
EXTENDED BODY:
Golden Reflections
John Knight reckons he's shot and killed thousands animals during his hunting career, but decided to call it a day after being involved in a helicopter accident while hunting near Karamea. Once he had recovered from his injuries John bought a boat in Napier and went deep sea fishing, but now he's back on the West Coast and working a black sand gold claim near Harihari.
Ponds of Gold
Murray Barker has been farming goldfish for 37 years. His small goldfish farm at the foot of Mount Te Aroha produces between 200 and 400-thousand goldfish each year. The fish are couriered all around New Zealand and end up in pet shops, garden centres, veterinary practices and in lawyers offices.
Woosters of Orira
Orchard John Wooster's great grandfather bought a parcel of land in the upper reaches of Hokianga harbour in 1902. Woosters have grown fruit trees on the land ever since and these days John is still planting up a mixed orchard including many heritage varieties. Ironically he pulled many of them out years ago because the supermarkets didn't like them. The family also has its own cemetery on the land which includes the grave of Frank Wooster who died from injuries received in WW1.

Golden Reflections
[image:55995:full]
John Knight reckons he's shot and killed thousands animals during his hunting career. He spent much of it deer culling from helicopters on the West Coast but called it a day after being involved in an accident while hunting near Karamea.
After he had recovered from the injuries sustained in the helicopter accident, he bought a boat in Napier and went deep sea fishing but due to personal tragedy the business was sold and John travelled the world.
After a few years he returned to New Zealand and went back to the West Coast where he now lives a self-sufficient lifestyle and works a black sand gold claim on beach near Harihari.
The 74 year-old says "I learnt a long time ago that when you retire you can do what like but you'll probably die within a few years unless you have a hobby or an interest, so I took up gold!"
Ponds of Gold

Even the man who breeds them can't believe how many goldfish New Zealanders buy.
Murray Barker owns Te Aroha's Braeside Aquaria, the largest goldfish farm in New Zealand.
His farm puts between 200-thousand and 400-thousand goldfish onto the market each year.
"And that happens year after year after year and we wonder where they all go."
Murray says a there are 196 different types of goldfish in the world and he grows 27 varieties. Goldfish cannot be imported in to New Zealand.
They're couriered around the country in plastic bags half filled with water and with oxygen added. They are sent to pet shops, veterinary clinics, garden centres and to businesses that rent aquariums to dentists, lawyers and other professionals for their waiting rooms.
Murray says the number of Asian immigrants to New Zealand has also been good for his business. He says they bring with them a love of goldfish.
"It's caused us to raise our standards because most people from Asia have a very discerning eye when it comes to goldfish."
The goldfish are bred and raised in ponds containing 18 million litres of water on 6 hectares of land at the foot of Mount Te Aroha.
Nets are put over some of the tanks but that hasn't stopped a local hawk, starlings and blackbirds from trying their luck.
And while the farm has a rural and mountain outlook it's bordered by 23 houses.
"I'd vow and declare that every neighbour has got 12 cats." Murray says "On occasional nights that I come in having a look around and I'm shining the torch and here's all these cats eyes looking at me and I counted 26 cats one night ...so it's party time at the goldfish farm most nights by the looks of things."
Woosters of Orira
[gallery:1647]
In the upper reaches of the Hokianga Harbour, at a place called Orira, John Wooster wears the Hokianga farmer's uniform, black singlet, black shorts and red band gumboots.
He's proud of his attire and he's proud of his heritage. His great-grandfather arrived in the district in 1902, purchasing the block of land site unseen, from America. He'd read an advertisement in the Washington Evening Post and thought New Zealand sounded great.
World War One brought sadness to the family with the only son of fighting age, coming home injured after a German snipper hit him at Passchendaele. He died from those injuries in 1919, but instant death was probably avoided by the bullet hitting a bible, card and photo of his baby brother which he had in his top pocket.
These days fourth generation John Wooster has a very mixed orchard on the land. "If it has fruit on it, I grow it. I have twenty of this tree, ten of that tree."
He and his wife Marion sell the fruit and preserves at the Kerikeri Farmers' Market, and both daughters, Tammy and Nicole, also hope to be back full time on the orchard one day. Quite a change from a decade ago, before the market, when they considered pulling out of orcharding altogether.

Future homes: monitoring you and projecting false realities
BODY:
Picture this: it's 2025 and one of the most important rooms in your home is the virtual reality den. There you can feel like you're the All Black kicking the winning penalty try or Black Fern getting the winning goal, or sense the snow against your face on a ski field, or that you're fighting aliens on another planet, all without leaving the couch. Meanwhile monitoring systems will do everything from checking your health, to keeping your power and fuel bills as low as possible. The Future Laboratory in the UK is a futures consultancy, and Steve Tooze works there on a project monitoring technology to predict how homes will look a decade ahead.

Who does medical trials?
BODY:
Medical trials depend on people being prepared to try new drugs or to take part in experimental procedures which may not help them now, but might help others in the future. There are many reason not to answer calls for help from researchers but without people willing to sign up for trials, better medication and other treatments with real potential to help out a raft of health issues can't get over a crucial hurdle. Dr Rinki Murphy from the University of Auckland is a specialist in diabetics who often puts out requests for volunteers to help in her research projects. Lynn Freeman also spoke to Rinki's colleague Brendan, who is diabetic and signed up for a genetic test.

Noel Gallagher
When Oasis played Wellington and Auckland dates in March 1998, the tour made headlines on both sides of the Tasman for all the wrong reasons.
In March 2016, Noel Gallagher returns to New Zealand as a solo artist. Ahead of the visit, he speaks with Sam Wicks about (not) remembering those shows, some classic New Zealand rhythm'n'blues records, and his pre-Oasis background as a music fan in Manchester.

Motörhead's Lemmy Kilmister
Ian “Lemmy” Kilmister, frontman of British hard rock trio Motörhead, has died of cancer at the age of 70.
A favourite with generations of hard rock and heavy metal musicians, Lemmy served as a vocalist with Dave Grohl’s heavy metal side project, Probot. At the time of the release of Probot's eponymous LP, Lemmy talked to RNZ Music’s Sam Wicks about the record and regaled him with Motörhead folklore – in tribute to the man and his music, we revisit that interview.
