1 00:00:07,173 --> 00:00:10,493 Speaker 1: You're listening to the Saturday Morning with Jack team podcast 2 00:00:10,613 --> 00:00:11,773 Speaker 1: from news Talks at b. 3 00:00:13,253 --> 00:00:15,493 Speaker 2: Ah Jack. Where'd you get your bird feeder this morning? 4 00:00:15,493 --> 00:00:17,813 Speaker 2: How amazing is that? Says Susy Jack. What was your 5 00:00:17,813 --> 00:00:20,733 Speaker 2: bird feeder brand? So I went on to Peter Ta Free, 6 00:00:20,813 --> 00:00:23,893 Speaker 2: New Zealand, and I got a Pecker Pecker bird feeder. 7 00:00:23,973 --> 00:00:26,533 Speaker 2: And I'm not being paid to promote it or anything. 8 00:00:26,533 --> 00:00:29,653 Speaker 2: I just bought one. It's pretty good because you attach 9 00:00:29,693 --> 00:00:31,773 Speaker 2: it to one of those warratars, you know, the metal 10 00:00:31,813 --> 00:00:34,573 Speaker 2: things you can stick in the ground. You're attached it 11 00:00:34,573 --> 00:00:36,853 Speaker 2: to one of those, and it's important that you get 12 00:00:36,933 --> 00:00:38,613 Speaker 2: high off the ground. You kind of want about a 13 00:00:38,653 --> 00:00:41,333 Speaker 2: meter and a half or higher off the ground so 14 00:00:41,413 --> 00:00:43,493 Speaker 2: that you know, cats and rats and that kind of 15 00:00:43,493 --> 00:00:45,973 Speaker 2: thing don't get up there and disturb it. Jack, you 16 00:00:45,973 --> 00:00:49,733 Speaker 2: could publish poems. I saw the description of what you 17 00:00:49,773 --> 00:00:52,933 Speaker 2: were reading, says Steve. That's very kind. Steve might be 18 00:00:52,973 --> 00:00:54,493 Speaker 2: a bit of a stretch. I don't think anyone needs 19 00:00:54,533 --> 00:00:57,213 Speaker 2: me to get too lyrical anyway. Ninety two ninety two 20 00:00:57,213 --> 00:00:58,653 Speaker 2: is our text number. If you can beat six to 21 00:00:58,733 --> 00:01:01,213 Speaker 2: twoy I'd love to hear from you. I've actually put 22 00:01:01,213 --> 00:01:03,333 Speaker 2: a video of it for all of the non believers 23 00:01:03,333 --> 00:01:06,293 Speaker 2: out there. I've put a video taken from my take 24 00:01:06,493 --> 00:01:08,733 Speaker 2: from my window looking outside and all the toy lined 25 00:01:08,813 --> 00:01:10,893 Speaker 2: up Yesterday've put it on our Facebook page, So go 26 00:01:10,973 --> 00:01:13,573 Speaker 2: to Jack Tame on Facebook and you can see that. 27 00:01:13,613 --> 00:01:16,253 Speaker 2: If you like, Kevin Milne is with us this morning. 28 00:01:16,373 --> 00:01:18,733 Speaker 2: Kill to Kevin. Oh, hang on this again, Kill to Kevin. 29 00:01:19,653 --> 00:01:23,933 Speaker 3: Yeah, don't you think those toy look kind of like criminals? Yeah, 30 00:01:24,133 --> 00:01:27,253 Speaker 3: when they come and to drink, they're always looking behind 31 00:01:27,293 --> 00:01:30,373 Speaker 3: them and around them and genuinely make sure nobody's sneaking 32 00:01:30,453 --> 00:01:31,453 Speaker 3: up on them totally. 33 00:01:31,693 --> 00:01:35,733 Speaker 2: Well, although the silver eyes are probably more twitchy in 34 00:01:35,813 --> 00:01:37,373 Speaker 2: that they know that they're going to get shoved out 35 00:01:37,373 --> 00:01:40,173 Speaker 2: of the way by two. You know, it's actually amazing. 36 00:01:40,253 --> 00:01:42,613 Speaker 2: It's only this. This is like going to sound like 37 00:01:42,653 --> 00:01:48,213 Speaker 2: an crearly dumb observation, but it was only upon setting 38 00:01:48,293 --> 00:01:51,413 Speaker 2: up the bit that I really appreciated the difference in 39 00:01:51,573 --> 00:01:54,853 Speaker 2: size between some birds and that a too he is 40 00:01:54,893 --> 00:01:59,533 Speaker 2: probably like six or seven silver eyes, Like you could 41 00:01:59,573 --> 00:02:01,573 Speaker 2: fit six or seven silver eyes and a toy, which 42 00:02:01,613 --> 00:02:03,653 Speaker 2: is a really big discrepancy. So you can see why 43 00:02:03,653 --> 00:02:05,133 Speaker 2: the too he's able to You know, it's top of 44 00:02:05,173 --> 00:02:08,653 Speaker 2: the pecking order, very little parting order. Yeah, but it's 45 00:02:09,013 --> 00:02:09,973 Speaker 2: interesting reading. 46 00:02:09,693 --> 00:02:12,413 Speaker 3: A book at the moment called bird Watching, and you 47 00:02:12,533 --> 00:02:15,133 Speaker 3: know it says that the silver eye is only a 48 00:02:15,173 --> 00:02:16,573 Speaker 3: fifth weight of a mouse. 49 00:02:17,013 --> 00:02:20,453 Speaker 2: Wow. Wow, that's incredible. Yeah, there's such a cue. I 50 00:02:20,493 --> 00:02:22,333 Speaker 2: love them because they kind of they're like little you know, 51 00:02:22,333 --> 00:02:24,493 Speaker 2: they're like little ping pong polls. But they're they're all 52 00:02:24,573 --> 00:02:26,333 Speaker 2: kind of slightly shabby at this time year as well, 53 00:02:26,333 --> 00:02:28,733 Speaker 2: they're very very cute. I've got a real affinity for 54 00:02:28,733 --> 00:02:31,333 Speaker 2: the little for the little silver rise. But Kevin, you 55 00:02:31,333 --> 00:02:33,013 Speaker 2: have had a little bit of an issue with your 56 00:02:33,093 --> 00:02:34,213 Speaker 2: calendar for this week. 57 00:02:34,653 --> 00:02:37,813 Speaker 3: Yeah, Now, why is it that printed on my SPCA 58 00:02:38,373 --> 00:02:42,733 Speaker 3: twenty twenty four calendar is, for example, September the twenty 59 00:02:42,773 --> 00:02:48,613 Speaker 3: third South Canterbury Anniversary Day. Useless information? Why on January 60 00:02:48,653 --> 00:02:53,853 Speaker 3: the two does it say, seriously, day after New Year's Day? 61 00:02:54,373 --> 00:02:58,533 Speaker 3: Surely you know that. But on on Saturday, the sixth 62 00:02:58,533 --> 00:03:02,933 Speaker 3: of July, that's today, it doesn't tell me that the 63 00:03:02,973 --> 00:03:05,693 Speaker 3: New Zealand All Blacks are playing England in the first 64 00:03:05,733 --> 00:03:10,133 Speaker 3: International the Razor Era. As a result, what's now written 65 00:03:10,173 --> 00:03:13,893 Speaker 3: on our calendar for the night is Guru of Chai 66 00:03:14,453 --> 00:03:18,493 Speaker 3: seven pm. Guru of Chai is a play put on 67 00:03:18,533 --> 00:03:22,533 Speaker 3: by the Indian In Theater Company, the most innovative, fantastic 68 00:03:22,573 --> 00:03:26,533 Speaker 3: theater group in the country, Christian's Dairy, etc. I've talked 69 00:03:26,533 --> 00:03:30,373 Speaker 3: about them before. It'll be brilliant, But Jack, I'd rather 70 00:03:30,493 --> 00:03:32,933 Speaker 3: be sitting in front of my Telly tonight at seven 71 00:03:32,973 --> 00:03:37,853 Speaker 3: pm watching the All Blacks than going to a play. Sure, 72 00:03:38,053 --> 00:03:40,093 Speaker 3: I'll record the game, I'll watch it when I get home, 73 00:03:40,133 --> 00:03:43,533 Speaker 3: but it's not the same. Call me a linear constricted boomer, 74 00:03:44,093 --> 00:03:48,853 Speaker 3: but home test matches needed to be watched live. It 75 00:03:48,933 --> 00:03:51,573 Speaker 3: goes without saying that it wasn't me that booked for 76 00:03:51,613 --> 00:03:54,173 Speaker 3: the play. My wife did. But it's not her fault. 77 00:03:54,493 --> 00:03:57,813 Speaker 3: When she made the booking, the little square that says 78 00:03:57,933 --> 00:04:01,653 Speaker 3: six July was blank. How was she to know it 79 00:04:01,693 --> 00:04:04,333 Speaker 3: was a momentous night. She simply said, Kevin, do you 80 00:04:04,373 --> 00:04:06,973 Speaker 3: want to go and see Indian Inklan play? And I 81 00:04:06,973 --> 00:04:10,853 Speaker 3: said yes. Had she been the perfect woman, she might 82 00:04:10,893 --> 00:04:16,133 Speaker 3: have said, darling, No. She never said through that and 83 00:04:16,253 --> 00:04:21,173 Speaker 3: there she might have said, Darling, it's on a Saturday 84 00:04:21,293 --> 00:04:24,493 Speaker 3: night in the middle of winter. A check. There's not 85 00:04:24,533 --> 00:04:27,653 Speaker 3: a matt Test match on it or the warriors in 86 00:04:27,693 --> 00:04:30,493 Speaker 3: factor are both. But that's a lot to ask someone 87 00:04:30,533 --> 00:04:34,453 Speaker 3: who's not interested neither. So can I say to the SBCA, 88 00:04:34,573 --> 00:04:36,973 Speaker 3: you do a great job, but before you put out 89 00:04:37,013 --> 00:04:41,093 Speaker 3: next year's calendar, don't bother calling every regional council for 90 00:04:41,213 --> 00:04:46,173 Speaker 3: their anniversary day, Chatton said to the New Zealand at 91 00:04:46,213 --> 00:04:46,933 Speaker 3: Rugby Union. 92 00:04:47,133 --> 00:04:49,733 Speaker 2: Yes, yes, that is a very very good point. I 93 00:04:49,773 --> 00:04:52,493 Speaker 2: wonder if with digital calendar, is there something you can 94 00:04:52,533 --> 00:04:55,013 Speaker 2: click whereby it puts on all of those kind of 95 00:04:55,133 --> 00:04:58,973 Speaker 2: key sporting events. There must be someone must have invented that, right, 96 00:04:59,253 --> 00:05:01,413 Speaker 2: because I get caught out by exactly the same thing 97 00:05:01,453 --> 00:05:03,573 Speaker 2: from time to time. But you know what, Kevin, I'm 98 00:05:03,573 --> 00:05:04,813 Speaker 2: going to give you a hack. And this is very 99 00:05:04,893 --> 00:05:09,133 Speaker 2: cheeky of me. You know you don't have to go. No, 100 00:05:10,133 --> 00:05:13,693 Speaker 2: you've bought a ticket, but you've supported the Kopappa. 101 00:05:16,333 --> 00:05:20,413 Speaker 3: My daughter's actually just the rid home affected, right, and 102 00:05:20,933 --> 00:05:22,293 Speaker 3: maybe some negotiations. 103 00:05:22,453 --> 00:05:24,293 Speaker 2: Yeah, you see. I think it would be a great 104 00:05:24,293 --> 00:05:28,013 Speaker 2: opportunity a mother daughter bonding evening, you know, And you 105 00:05:28,093 --> 00:05:30,413 Speaker 2: have that that cough of yours has been getting a 106 00:05:30,453 --> 00:05:32,693 Speaker 2: little bit more harsh over the last couple of days. 107 00:05:32,693 --> 00:05:35,253 Speaker 2: I think the responsible thing to do Kevin might be 108 00:05:35,293 --> 00:05:38,973 Speaker 2: just you know, not for you, but for the community, 109 00:05:39,173 --> 00:05:39,853 Speaker 2: you know, just. 110 00:05:42,053 --> 00:05:45,693 Speaker 3: I think there are some possibilities in that regard. Yeah. 111 00:05:45,733 --> 00:05:51,213 Speaker 3: On the other hand, I hear it's a brilliant, brilliant play. Yeah, yeah, 112 00:05:51,333 --> 00:05:51,773 Speaker 3: very brilliant. 113 00:05:51,933 --> 00:05:54,173 Speaker 2: Well, whoever goes along from the Mellon household, I hope 114 00:05:54,173 --> 00:05:56,453 Speaker 2: you enjoyed this evening.

Jack, I feed my bird life here 118 00:06:03,813 --> 00:06:06,173 Speaker 2: in Milton Kluther. I've got wax eyes a silver eyes. 119 00:06:06,173 --> 00:06:09,493 Speaker 2: But my record for the Towey family is seventeen feeding 120 00:06:09,493 --> 00:06:11,933 Speaker 2: it at one time every day. I have a minimum 121 00:06:11,973 --> 00:06:15,093 Speaker 2: of ten, says Kathy. Okay, that's pretty impressive, Kathy.

You get 126 00:06:29,173 --> 00:06:30,973 Speaker 2: the core fire in as well. This time of year 127 00:06:31,013 --> 00:06:33,573 Speaker 2: keeps the Towy going.
