Horsing Around SPINAL COLUMN As a Chiropractor practising in Cambridge, I am often dealing with patients whose injuries stem from working with or riding horses. Just about every facet of the equine industry has its own potential for injury. Jockeys and riders get injured in falls, farriers suffer from posture related pain, dressage competitors require perfect postural balance and poise, hunters often tumble, stable hands strain their backs with lifting and shovelling. Recreational owners may get knocked by their horse when loading them into a trailer, and old timers may still suffer the results of injuries of many years ago. My simple advice to horse riding folk is this: 1- Riding horse; good 2-Falling off horse; bad 3- Shovelling horse poo; very bad. Riding exercises and strengthens the postural ‘core’ muscles around the spine, and good coaching will improve posture and balance. Often aches and pains will diminish with the movement of riding, however falling off rarely improves anything. Lots of shovelling poo will eventually lead to wear and tear, however not shovelling poo results in neck deep poo, which is bad. If you suffer from horse related injuries come and see me at the Cambridge Chiropractic Clinic and I’ll give you treatment and advice to get you back in the saddle. The horse poo however, is all yours. NEVER UNDER ESTIMATE THE POWER OF CHIROPRACTIC CARE • BACK PAIN • SPORTS INJURIES • NECK PAIN • STIFF SHOULDERS • HEADACHES • LACK OF SLEEP B.Sc. M.

EMMA JAMES

Warwick Johnson has moved more than 30,000 Waikato build- ings in his 82-year lifespan, including some iconic ones. Born in Hamilton and now retired in Tirau, Johnson was in the business of building removal since he was about 15. It started when his school closed down due to an outbreak of polio and he was sent to a farm to work. But he was a bit of a misfit in school, he said, so when he got his roll-call to come back he opted to move buildings instead – starting with the transit huts that were used by American soldiers who were here during World War II. ‘‘They needed to be used to rehab the New Zealand soldiers when they came home, so we picked the huts up and took them to rural areas,’’ he said. ‘‘They had 400 to be shifted.’’ His family owned the first trailer built in the Waikato, which was what they used. ‘‘It was cumbersome for what it was, but it did the job,’’ he said. After working with his father and grandfather for some years, he broke away from the family to start his own business – John- son’s House Removals. The Heritage Village at Mys- tery Creek is one of his ‘‘babies’’ having shifted nearly all of the Warwick Johnson has many scrapbooks and photographs of his time in the building removal business.

18 CAMBRIDGE EDITION, JUNE 8, 2016 stuff.co.nz Motoring Roll-up ute cover on view at Fieldays

A new, easy-to-use tonneau cover for utes that doesn’t require holes drilled into the bodywork will be taking pride of place on vehicles dressed by Best Bars at this year’s national Fieldays. Utes on the Toyota, Isuzu and Volkswagen stands at this year’s event from June 15 to 18 at Mys- tery Creek will feature the Advan- tage Roll-up Tonneau Cover recently introduced to the market by Best Bars. The cover uses an alloy frame fixed to the top of the wellside tray with specially-designed brackets locking it into place. Removable ribs inside the cover keep it taut over the wellside tray. The cover simply rolls up when the ribs are removed – it can be stored behind the cab when the driver needs to trans- port tall or bulky items. Elasticated straps are incorpor- ated into the design to keep the rolled-up cover tightly in place while the ute is being driven. The new cover combines the flexibility of traditional fabric covers, but without the need to drill unsightly holes in the side of the vehicle to install hooks for bungy cords. The unique frame holds the cover firmly in place.

These inancial assets will have a direct inluence on the quality of life you’ll enjoy in retirement. A key characteristic of inancial assets is that they can grow (or fall) in value, as well as generate income. The decisions on how and what to invest in can be complex. It is important to identify your own appetite for investment risk, time-frame, income requirements, and future capital needs so that you can decide upon the most appropriate asset allocation. The proportion of funds in each asset class will have a material inluence on the return an investor receives and the risk taken to achieve that return. In thinking about these decisions, the trade-off between the risk of losing money for the prospect of better returns is one that needs to be carefully considered.

Racing

I’ve done my dash. Welcome to the last column from ‘‘The Commentary Box’’. Although it may come as a sur- prise to some, (and just pure relief to others), I think it is time to bow out. An ever increasing workload and a pretty hectic schedule has made the task of a weekly racing column increasingly difficult. At times I’ve even gone miss- ing in action, causing unnecess- ary stress to a few editors along the way. I was trying to work out how long I’d been writing this column, but I’m hopeless at that sort of thing. I wished I’d been able to state categorically how many years ago I started writing this weekly column for the Cambridge Edition, then I would have worked out how many columns I’d writ- ten, followed by how many words I’d written. It’s the sort of thing I’ve read when someone calls it a day. George Simon has written his final column for the Cambridge Edition.
