When The Queen pulled out of the Remembrance Sunday Cenotaph service last month, a gasp echoed around the world. Of all the engagements the monarch had cancelled in recent weeks, we were told this was one Her Majesty didn’t want to miss. Consequently it was all very last minute, adding to the shock. The reason – a back sprain – was entirely unrelated to The Queen’s doctor’s recent advice to rest. Nobody regrets her absence today more deeply than Her Majesty herself, noted a Buckingham Palace source, saying she was deeply disappointed. It shouldn’t really have caused so much consternation, of course. Her Majesty is 95. She was fatigued after coming a little too fast out of the blocks following COVID lockdown and now suffering a no-doubt-painful back injury. So,…

The Samford Valley in south-east Queensland vibrates in every gradient of green. On a day of sun and rain I travel there, down country roads lined with rolling fields, gum trees and farmhouses slumbering in a sudden burst of light. At the foot of Mount Samson I am greeted by two peacocks in full spectacular plumage. A guinea fowl perches on top of a fridge. I alight from the car and a little deer nibbles on my notebook and rips a bag of treats out of my hand. This is Luka, 10 months old. He and his brother, Leo, were found as newborn fawns near Coffs Harbour, separated from their mum in the floods, and brought here to the Lyell Deer Sanctuary. “They still had their umbilical scab. Their mother…

Tree CHANGE Dreamy Garland Choose a palette of soft, tonal pinks and peach shades for our garland, but neutral shades would also look gorgeous against twinkling lights and sparkling decorations. Once your filters are ready (see page 79), simply thread kitchen twine onto a tapestry needle and string the filters together by piercing the centre of each one with the needle. Continue until you reach your desired length, and then secure the ends with knots and hanging loops. When you’re ready to decorate, scrunch, fluff, and shape the filters with your hands.…

You will need Toilet rollsScissorsCraft glue or hot glueand a glue gunPegs and twine STARS For each star, you’ll need one toilet paper roll. To start, simply flatten the roll. Then cut into 6 rings of equal width (ours were about 1.5cm wide). Add a small dab of glue to one end of each flattened ring and glue the points of the tube to one another, forming the star shape. While they dry, clamp the rings together with small pegs. To finish, add twine. ANGELS Each angel requires two rolls. Once both rolls are flattened, cut one into 6 equal rings that are about 1.5cm wide. First, make the wings by pinching 3 rings together in the centre and then gluing at the join and to each other. Then make…

Joy and husband Stan met as champion tennis players and went on to create their own tennis academy. When Joy goes missing, Stan and their four children aren’t nearly concerned enough. What’s afoot?

It takes a village. It’s a phrase you can apply to achieving success in a lot of areas of life. Turns out it also sometimes takes a village to get a Christmas magazine shoot done – this month’s delightful cover story with Nadia and her family is testament to that. It’s also a great reminder of just how connected New Zealand is and how Kiwis will always go out of their way to help someone out. As is the case in lots of industries, Covid-19 and all the restrictions that come with it have made it challenging to get things done. With our team confined to Auckland due to border closure, this cover shoot needed a bit more of a creative approach. “I’ve got a photographer coming to do some…

A while ago – “15, possibly 20 years” – Joanna Lumley purchased a limited-edition work of art that is the crowning glory on the wall of her study. We are meeting via video call, and in a flurry, the much-loved English actress and TV presenter excitedly picks up her laptop and swirls me – virtually – around the room, to fix my gaze on the wall opposite. There, in glorious shades of regal purple, gold, bright green and a hint of cerise, is Joanna’s icon, Her Majesty The Queen, immortalised by the late pop-art master, Andy Warhol. “He did four colourways and 40 prints of each of them, which he signed, and then that was it. This is one of the 40, so it’s not that rare but it’s pretty…

Sue Fleischl is one of the unsung legends of the New Zealand culinary scene. These days, you may recognise her as one of the judges on TVNZ 1’s popular series The Great Kiwi Bake Off, but the Savoy-trained chef has done much to revolutionise the nation’s concept of food. An elegant, outgoing woman, she is, by her own admission, a classic type-A personality. Common traits for these individuals include a strong character, the need to operate at speed, impatience, competitiveness and high achievement. Sue has needed all those characteristics to survive and thrive in the demanding world of professional cuisine. She was born in Napier, the daughter of an Austrian refugee. Peter Fleischl and his wife Charmian were both doctors, with Sue the youngest of their five children. Charmian died…

One of the major challenges for pet owners is keeping our fur babies safe from parasites. It’s extremely common for dogs to bring fleas, ticks and worms into the home, and once these nasties have made themselves comfortable, they’re hard to remove. Initially causing your pet moderate discomfort, if allowed to thrive, these pests can create serious health issues. Happily, you can easily save your four-legged friend – and yourself – from the pain, stress and cost of infestations. The experts at NEXGARD SPECTRA are passionate about ensuring your pet’s lifelong health and are on a mission to dispel common myths about those pesky parasites. MYTH 1: I keep my house and my dog clean, so fleas won’t be an issue. Unfortunately, there’s no escaping fleas, they are extremely prolific,…

A twist on floral and fabric garlands, nailing this crafting step will allow you to create some seriously dreamy decorations. To start, dilute about 1-2 tablespoons of acrylic paint in 1 cup of water in a shallow bowl. Keep in mind, the colour will lighten on drying. Next, dip a pile of about 20 basket-style coffee filters in the paint solution until the colour absorbs, then squeeze out any excess liquid and lay them out to dry. Once dry, separate filters and get ready to craft! Coffee filter Christmas trees Create festive cheer in every corner of your home with these whimsical trees. To begin, cut a centre circle out of the dyed coffee filters (save for later) leaving a ring that is about 4cm wide. Cut the ring open…

Removing the rind Using a small sharp knife, cut through the rind 10cm from the shank end of the leg. Lift rind off in one piece by running your thumb around edge of rind under the skin; pull from the widest edge of the ham up to the shank. Remove the rind completely. Where to start Place the ham on a chopping board and steady it with a carving fork. Using a large sharp knife, make a vertical cut toward the bone at the shank end then cut a small wedge of ham and remove it. This will provide you with a greater surface area for carving. Scoring the fat Using a large sharp knife, score across the fat at about 1-2cm intervals, following the curve of the ham, and…

Future Steading by Jade Miles, Murdoch Jade and husband Charlie Showers and their three “chilluns” run the Black Bean Farm biodiverse orchard in Victoria.

Capricorn Dec 22 - Jan 20 As the zodiac’s premier respecter of status, any event you host or attend is likely to be a top-shelf and impeccably managed publicity opportunity for an Insta shot.

On the big day, I’ll wear… Something special. The greatest joy about what I do is… Exploring the complexities of human nature. My favourite Christmas food is… Terry’s Chocolate Orange. It might be…

Danny Abdallah lifts two of his boys up at once, supporting Alex in one arm and Michael in the other, while his almost-teenage daughter Liana lets her mother, Leila, drape an arm around her and leans into her protective embrace. Storms were predicted for the family’s photo shoot and leaves in the garden are glistening from the morning showers. But up above, the dark clouds have broken and sun streams down on the family. “It was the same at the funeral. There were nine days of rain and I remember them saying they never saw rain like this in 30 years, and on the day, the clouds just broke and there was a ray of sun right on the church,” Danny says. The Abdallah family was thrust into the public…

How To Woo A Duke by Lady Whistleblower, Penguin Guide to navigating “the season” for fans of the Bridgerton TV hit. The “haut ton” (French for high fashion) refers to those of elite Georgian society displaying refined manners. The “Fan flirtations” translations are delicious – carrying in right hand in front of face means “follow me”. Twirling in left hand: “I wish to be rid of you.” Slow fanning: “I am married.” Fast fanning: “It’s hot in here.” On debut day, “never wear a court dress more than once”. Why Did I Buy That? by Kirstie Clements, Murdoch Former Vogue editor Clements’ mother Gloria was always ready for whatever life had to throw. When her father died, her widowed mother worked as a barmaid and in a plastics factory at…
