	Temuka New Zealand - Angler's Paradise, South Island, New Zealand
		Temuka, South Canterbury, is a town with a strong sense of heritage, a heritage that saw local farmer Richard Pearse rival the Wright Brothers as the first man to fly (some world aviation authorities still say he was, and try telling a local he wasn't!).
		Sea-run trout and salmon are caught in season, while Temuka is also an ideal central base for those wishing to fish the mighty Waitaki river to the south, the Rakaia to the North, or the fabled lakes of the Mackenzie Country and the Waitaki Basin.
		Pioneer aviator Richard Pearse, Temuka's most famous son, was a genius by any standards, though it only earned him the nicknames among locals of "Mad Pearse" or "Bamboo Dick", the latter because of his penchant for using bamboo in the construction of his flying machines.

		Richard William Pearse was born on 3 December 1877 at Waitohi Flat, Temuka, South Island, New Zealand, the fourth of nine children to Digory Pearse and Sarah Brown, Digory an immigrant from Cornwall, England and Sarah from Ireland, who was working in a shop in Timaru when Digory met her.
		They fielded a strong tennis team, building their own courts on the estate, and even in an age where self rather than mass amusement was the norm, they were uncommonly musical, forming their own family orchestra in which Richard played the cello.
		Pearse’s mechanical inquisitiveness continued to be applied laterally, and perhaps inspired by a desire to preserve the music of the Pearse family orchestra, he developed two sound recording and playback devices during these years, including a version of the gramophone: a phonograph and trumpet using wax-coated discs that could be heard 400 metres away.
