"My heart is bursting with overwhelming love and gratitude for the support shown to me and my family. It is giving me a surge of strength and faith in my ability to fight this every step of the way."

Done with sky-high Wellington rent, Olivia Caldwell moved to rural Otago.

In her new location, Caldwell has privacy on her very own front porch, has sheep and deer in the paddock in front of her and a short walk up the back the farm takes her to an incredible picnic spot, overlooking Lake Wānaka.

Her Wellington flat was shared with two blokes and scented with a mix of Ecoya candles, incense and mould. She wasn't sad to leave it behind.

A Queenstown drug dealer claims a friend who left New Zealand gave him ecstasy pills worth $120,000.

Keith Singleton, a 30-year-old labourer originally from Ireland, said he only started selling the pills when his partner was made redundant.

Police found 2431 pills when they searched his home on December 9, and charged him with possession of the class B drug ecstasy and possession of ecstasy for supply.

Judge Russell Walker sentenced him in the Queenstown District Court on Monday to 11 months and two weeks home detention and 200 hours of community work, on top of 240 hours already completed.

“You have come as close as you possibly can to a sizeable term of imprisonment without actually going to prison,” the judge said.

A Central Otago man has escaped a late-night house fire without injury after being woken by a smoke alarm.

Emergency services were called to the fire on Horace St in Cromwell shortly after 11pm on Sunday.

The house was “well ablaze” when three crews from Cromwell and another from Clyde arrived, Fire and Emergency New Zealand spokesman Brent Dunn said.

He said no-one was injured in the blaze but there was “extensive damage” to the rear of the home.

Crews were able to stop the fire spreading to any nearby structures, but a neighbouring property was evacuated as a precaution, Dunn said.


The fire was extinguished shortly after 12.50am.

Specialist fire investigator Marty Jillings said a man, the sole occupant of the home, was able to escape the fire because he was woken by working smoke alarms.

The circumstances of the fire were still under investigation, but it was not considered suspicious at this stage.
