1
00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:03,000
Speaker 1: Me and Liz McMillan, Morning to you morning. Did you

2
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:04,920
Speaker 1: get any sweep last night? Did it feel like the

3
00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:05,880
Speaker 1: roof was peeling.

4
00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:08,600
Speaker 2: Off, gearing off? But yeah, I found a wee bit

5
00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:10,080
Speaker 2: windy last night up in Methvin.

6
00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:15,120
Speaker 1: Nice warm though lovely tropics. Yeah, So in for some

7
00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:17,320
Speaker 1: council chat and I thought we'd polish off the heavy

8
00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:19,759
Speaker 1: stuff early. First. There was a bit of chat that

9
00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:23,439
Speaker 1: I spotted on the community Facebook page while I was

10
00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:25,840
Speaker 1: enjoying an extra long weekend. I think this was on

11
00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:29,080
Speaker 1: Sunday night. The water pressure was down in parts of Ellington.

12
00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:29,840
Speaker 1: What was going on there?

13
00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:33,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, so we're just in the final stages of upgrading

14
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:39,760
Speaker 2: our water treatment plants and Expudence. So we've got four plants, Domain, Argyll,

15
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:43,240
Speaker 2: park Bridge Street and tim Wold and the Domain plant

16
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:47,080
Speaker 2: is currently offline because we're that's the final one to

17
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:50,000
Speaker 2: be upgraded. So there was a bit of low pressure

18
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:55,600
Speaker 2: through Allington I think on Sunday night. It was fixed

19
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 2: within an hour, but probably just a reminder if you

20
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 2: know a few if there's something going on with your

21
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:06,399
Speaker 2: water pressure or something unusual, you can ring the council

22
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:10,800
Speaker 2: number and it's twenty four to seven. So we heaven

23
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,520
Speaker 2: after our service so you can through hair.

24
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:16,680
Speaker 1: Ald was thinking it was all the sprinklers going as

25
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:18,760
Speaker 1: things are getting dryer there, right because of that wind

26
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 1: that we mentioned. That's right, Yeah, yeah, And I use

27
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:25,320
Speaker 1: these sprinklers at off peak times where you can their team. Hey,

28
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 1: something else which has been top of mind. I've been

29
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: catching up on the news here as if poor teachers

30
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 1: don't have enough to stress about through two and four.

31
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 1: And then there's giving parents a bit of a scare

32
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 1: too that colored sands, some types of colored sand from

33
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 1: Kmart they reckon, could be linked with asbestos. So a

34
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 1: lot of schools and early child care centers are affected,

35
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 1: and no doubt a lot of parents going to check

36
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 1: if it's some stuff that we might have around the house.

37
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 1: If we do have some of the sand. The particular

38
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 1: batches in question, Council are helping us dispose of it.

39
00:01:58,040 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 1: We don't want it going in the red bins.

40
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 2: No, don't want to going in the red buns. And

41
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 2: I think MB have said don't vacuum it as well,

42
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 2: so don't the particles. Yeah, So we've got a special

43
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 2: area in the Eshpur and Resource Recovery Park where you

44
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:17,400
Speaker 2: can drop it off. Have a look on our council

45
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,639
Speaker 2: website or the mb website for details of how to

46
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 2: kind of package it up, so you know, put some

47
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,160
Speaker 2: gloves on, put it in a plus it bag, put

48
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:29,799
Speaker 2: it in another plus it bag, rite contaminate it all

49
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,800
Speaker 2: over it and then drop it off. But we don't

50
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:34,360
Speaker 2: want it in the red buns.

51
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:39,360
Speaker 1: So that's from this Thursday. We don't usually accepts bestos

52
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,399
Speaker 1: like material, but we're making an exception for the sake

53
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:44,960
Speaker 1: of helping parents out. Wonderful, So all that details up

54
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:47,160

55
00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 1: can go and check that one out. Our new Many

56
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:52,240
Speaker 1: golf Course, Many, Mid Canterbury. It opens this weekend.

57
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 2: It does on Saturday.

58
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:57,960
Speaker 1: Wow, so break neck speed that the crew have been

59
00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:00,120
Speaker 1: doing all those earthworks and then it's been made by

60
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 1: an outfit in Amuru. Is it the actual holes themselves

61
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,119
Speaker 1: they look cool of how do we sneaky peek over

62
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:11,239
Speaker 1: the fence, but just unique local characteristics here.

63
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's actually really really cool. So when we

64
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:18,880
Speaker 2: saw the designs and sort of looked at at what

65
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 2: we could have sort of Mid Canterbury icons, I guess

66
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,760
Speaker 2: on the different holes, you know, what you see on

67
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 2: paper and what we've got down at EA Networks is

68
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:31,239
Speaker 2: just incredible fun.

69
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 1: Have you picked a favorite yet?

70
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 2: Not yet, No, because they hadn't all been completed. I

71
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,800
Speaker 2: was down there last week with the Long Beach school

72
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 2: kids doing some planting on there, so yeah, they weren't

73
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 2: all totally finished. But yeah, there's a couple of really

74
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 2: really cool Well actually they're all cool.

75
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,680
Speaker 1: So all the formalities and the ribbon cutting is on Friday,

76
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 1: but's Sat. Today is our opportunity to have our first hack.

77
00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 1: What's the housekeeping around this?

78
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 2: We need to book, yes, you so booking through AA

79
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 2: Network Center and then I think you just book your times.

80
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 2: It's if you've got your own clubs, it's free. You know,

81
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:18,280
Speaker 2: you don't have to pay anything. But if you want

82
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 2: to hire some putters, I think they're five dollars each

83
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,479
Speaker 2: network so similar to them to the disc golf where

84
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 2: you go in and you can hire a few. Don't

85
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 2: have the equipment and you don't have a school card,

86
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 2: so you don't have a paper scorecard. It's all done

87
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 2: through a QR code as well. So yeah, a little

88
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:39,040
Speaker 2: bit different, a little bit exciting. I think it's going

89
00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:40,560
Speaker 2: to be amazing.

90
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 1: What a rate about this the you know, my other

91
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:47,560
Speaker 1: play of golf, which is usually at timuld the risk

92
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:51,000
Speaker 1: of losing a ball is greatly reduced, well you'd hope.

93
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:56,479
Speaker 1: So anyway, well, brilliant. So that's this coming weekend and

94
00:04:56,520 --> 00:05:00,440
