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 --> 00:00:11,493 Speaker 1: from News Talks. 3 00:00:11,493 --> 00:00:15,533 Speaker 2: Ad Be, Kevin Milt is with us this morning, Kielder, Kevin. 4 00:00:16,013 --> 00:00:19,693 Speaker 3: Koa and go Auntie Bob. Yeah. No member of the 5 00:00:19,773 --> 00:00:24,133 Speaker 3: time family is safe. Now wherever you are, you can 6 00:00:24,173 --> 00:00:29,133 Speaker 3: be called on instantly for a little piece about what's 7 00:00:29,173 --> 00:00:29,973 Speaker 3: happening in front of you. 8 00:00:30,133 --> 00:00:32,213 Speaker 2: Well, she said to me this morning that she should 9 00:00:32,213 --> 00:00:34,173 Speaker 2: packed her thermos. She got on her bike and she 10 00:00:34,293 --> 00:00:36,813 Speaker 2: went and got ao advantage point, so that a good 11 00:00:36,813 --> 00:00:38,933 Speaker 2: spot on advantage point, so she could see everything as 12 00:00:38,933 --> 00:00:42,213 Speaker 2: it unfolded. But yeah, I mean it does sound pretty, 13 00:00:42,773 --> 00:00:46,573 Speaker 2: you know, reasonably serious. But I suppose my initial reaction 14 00:00:46,693 --> 00:00:51,213 Speaker 2: is that, you know, provided they can refloat it safely, 15 00:00:52,293 --> 00:00:54,493 Speaker 2: you can only imagine how much worse it might have 16 00:00:54,573 --> 00:00:57,853 Speaker 2: been in a worst case scenario. An absolute worst case scenario. 17 00:00:58,533 --> 00:01:00,373 Speaker 3: Is blocking away of the other fairies. 18 00:01:00,613 --> 00:01:04,493 Speaker 2: No, I know, from from my understanding it's it's not. 19 00:01:04,973 --> 00:01:11,053 Speaker 2: But yeah, I don't honestly know that for sure. Side 20 00:01:11,053 --> 00:01:12,893 Speaker 2: I wouldn't want to. 21 00:01:13,213 --> 00:01:14,173 Speaker 3: We've got another question. 22 00:01:14,253 --> 00:01:17,013 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly, Yeah. 23 00:01:16,053 --> 00:01:16,213 Speaker 3: Yeah. 24 00:01:17,053 --> 00:01:19,413 Speaker 2: Anyway, We're going to keep up with the very latest 25 00:01:19,413 --> 00:01:22,573 Speaker 2: from the authorities as they continue their efforts in the 26 00:01:22,653 --> 00:01:25,333 Speaker 2: sounds this morning, just outside of Picton. But I hear 27 00:01:25,413 --> 00:01:27,333 Speaker 2: you were up another part of the country this week 28 00:01:27,533 --> 00:01:28,493 Speaker 2: in Tarmaki, Mikardo. 29 00:01:28,533 --> 00:01:32,293 Speaker 3: Auckland, Kevin, Yahlyndra and I spent four rewarding days up 30 00:01:32,373 --> 00:01:35,573 Speaker 3: your neck of the woods this week. Now, while downtown 31 00:01:35,613 --> 00:01:40,933 Speaker 3: Auckland's decline continues, the old suburbs seemed more glorious than ever. 32 00:01:41,213 --> 00:01:44,693 Speaker 3: Who was it that had the foresight to preserve block 33 00:01:44,773 --> 00:01:49,933 Speaker 3: after block of beautifully aged bungalows and cottages across Auckland. 34 00:01:50,493 --> 00:01:54,933 Speaker 3: No other city except maybe Dunedin, has fared so much 35 00:01:54,973 --> 00:01:58,493 Speaker 3: of its vintage housing stock. I'd be liking from Mount 36 00:01:58,653 --> 00:02:01,453 Speaker 3: Eden were our first friend of the house nearly fifty 37 00:02:01,533 --> 00:02:05,213 Speaker 3: years ago, as a young TV one newsman. Gosh, I 38 00:02:05,293 --> 00:02:08,373 Speaker 3: wish I could have bought that house back then. There 39 00:02:08,373 --> 00:02:12,093 Speaker 3: are all those leafy suburbs too, of course, like Herne 40 00:02:12,173 --> 00:02:18,213 Speaker 3: Bay's and Mary's Bay, Freeman's Bay, Ponsonby, Graylan absolutely gorgeous. 41 00:02:18,493 --> 00:02:22,773 Speaker 3: But Mount Eden has busy, rumpty old Mount Eden Road 42 00:02:22,853 --> 00:02:28,733 Speaker 3: running alongside it. And with busy roads come shops, cafes, florists, supermarkets, 43 00:02:28,973 --> 00:02:33,653 Speaker 3: libraries which bring people. We stayed a couple of nights 44 00:02:33,653 --> 00:02:36,653 Speaker 3: in Mount Eden with old journo friends. The man in 45 00:02:36,693 --> 00:02:40,213 Speaker 3: this couple is an astonishing cook. It surprises me actually 46 00:02:40,253 --> 00:02:43,893 Speaker 3: how many hard assed male journalists turn out to be 47 00:02:44,133 --> 00:02:47,933 Speaker 3: excellent cooks. But this guy's the best. The first thing 48 00:02:47,973 --> 00:02:50,813 Speaker 3: he said after inviting us to say was I've been 49 00:02:50,933 --> 00:02:54,853 Speaker 3: keeping something for a special occasion. They're hard to find. Actually, 50 00:02:55,173 --> 00:02:58,973 Speaker 3: we'll have a little French night. Can you guess that? What? 51 00:02:59,213 --> 00:03:00,253 Speaker 3: What that might have been? Deck? 52 00:03:00,453 --> 00:03:08,013 Speaker 2: Snails?

Magnificent. Now 64 00:03:52,453 --> 00:03:57,253 Speaker 3: Linda doesn't have bacon unbelievably. Mikey remembered that from a 65 00:03:57,293 --> 00:04:00,533 Speaker 3: couple of years back, and he cooked her a separate 66 00:04:00,653 --> 00:04:04,213 Speaker 3: meal without the bacon.
