Yeah, 33 00:01:34,292 --> 00:01:36,652 Speaker 4: and I've got to say, mate, the perfect HouseGuest. 34 00:01:36,813 --> 00:01:37,133 Speaker 2: Ah. 35 00:01:37,572 --> 00:01:41,373 Speaker 4: Just he loves a snuggle. Yeah, and he ruled the roost. 36 00:01:41,413 --> 00:01:44,173 Speaker 4: I've got to say. So, Pepper is greyhound. She's about 37 00:01:44,173 --> 00:01:46,652 Speaker 4: three times the size of Colin. But instantly when you 38 00:01:46,693 --> 00:01:50,293 Speaker 4: brought Colin around, you could see he was going to 39 00:01:50,333 --> 00:01:53,573 Speaker 4: be the boss of that situation. Uh, and people loved it. 40 00:01:53,653 --> 00:01:55,973 Speaker 4: After they it only took about twenty minutes. Then they 41 00:01:55,973 --> 00:01:59,333 Speaker 4: were sleeping next to each other or sing you that photo. Yeah, 42 00:01:59,413 --> 00:02:01,173 Speaker 4: and it was just like a wee Disney movie. 43 00:02:01,293 --> 00:02:03,333 Speaker 2: Isn't that interesting? Dogs? How they've got no idea what 44 00:02:03,493 --> 00:02:06,892 Speaker 2: size they are? Yeah. So Colin's just this tiny little unit. 45 00:02:06,933 --> 00:02:10,693 Speaker 2: Can just run straight under Pepper yep, without even touching 46 00:02:11,173 --> 00:02:12,213 Speaker 2: her belly underneath. 47 00:02:12,373 --> 00:02:12,573 Speaker 6: Yeah. 48 00:02:12,653 --> 00:02:15,133 Speaker 2: Yeah, his ears wouldn't even tickle her belly. And yet 49 00:02:15,173 --> 00:02:17,412 Speaker 2: he's like, no, stay away from my bed. And then 50 00:02:17,493 --> 00:02:19,213 Speaker 2: just went into your house and went straight in and 51 00:02:19,213 --> 00:02:20,573 Speaker 2: started eating Pepper's food. 52 00:02:20,853 --> 00:02:23,733 Speaker 4: Yeah, I was disappointed. People didn't do anything. She just 53 00:02:23,773 --> 00:02:27,893 Speaker 4: sat there and watched Colin devour her whole biscuits. But 54 00:02:28,133 --> 00:02:28,853 Speaker 4: good on them, you know. 55 00:02:29,133 --> 00:02:32,053 Speaker 2: Actually another issue over the weekend is I gave you 56 00:02:32,093 --> 00:02:35,692 Speaker 2: an old tint of mine in an old canvas tent. Yeah, fantastic, 57 00:02:35,773 --> 00:02:40,613 Speaker 2: the Cacao Caca po tent. Yeah, And I dropped it 58 00:02:40,613 --> 00:02:41,813 Speaker 2: around to you. But I had a whole lot of 59 00:02:41,853 --> 00:02:43,893 Speaker 2: stuff in the back of the truck that I was 60 00:02:43,972 --> 00:02:46,373 Speaker 2: dropping it around to you. And I drove right across 61 00:02:46,413 --> 00:02:48,773 Speaker 2: town and then I arrived at your house and I 62 00:02:48,813 --> 00:02:52,493 Speaker 2: realized I hadn't put I hadn't put the back down, 63 00:02:53,173 --> 00:02:55,093 Speaker 2: and there was so much stuff in there. There was 64 00:02:55,133 --> 00:02:58,253 Speaker 2: like a trolley for moving a stuff around. There was 65 00:02:58,293 --> 00:03:03,572 Speaker 2: heaps of crazy just miscellaneous items that could have just 66 00:03:03,573 --> 00:03:06,172 Speaker 2: just didn't just happened to add a pure dumb lot, 67 00:03:06,333 --> 00:03:08,573 Speaker 2: not including the tent I was giving you.

I've just left the bloody door 74 00:03:22,213 --> 00:03:24,333 Speaker 4: open on the truck an Allen. Nothing came out. 75 00:03:24,373 --> 00:03:26,493 Speaker 2: There was an LPG canister. I don't know. I mean, 76 00:03:26,532 --> 00:03:28,573 Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure they don't explode. I saw something in 77 00:03:28,613 --> 00:03:31,852 Speaker 2: the you know, the protests with there throwing LPG canisters 78 00:03:31,853 --> 00:03:34,012 Speaker 2: onto fires, and they weren't exploding like they do in 79 00:03:34,053 --> 00:03:37,533 Speaker 2: the game man Charted and video games.

This is an issue near and dear to 97 00:04:15,173 --> 00:04:16,733 Speaker 4: your heart that you're kind of facing at the moment 98 00:04:16,773 --> 00:04:18,813 Speaker 4: when it comes to open plan living. 99 00:04:18,613 --> 00:04:22,133 Speaker 2: Mat Yeah, that's right. I'm moving into a house and 100 00:04:22,133 --> 00:04:24,853 Speaker 2: I'm getting some advice from people on how to renovate it, 101 00:04:24,893 --> 00:04:27,493 Speaker 2: and everyone's just open it up, turn it into a cabin, 102 00:04:28,013 --> 00:04:31,293 Speaker 2: open up the kitchen into the lounge, remove rooms, remove walls, 103 00:04:31,333 --> 00:04:34,053 Speaker 2: and I'm just asking why is that? Why have we 104 00:04:34,133 --> 00:04:36,053 Speaker 2: gone so far down that route? When it comes to 105 00:04:36,093 --> 00:04:38,693 Speaker 2: houses in New Zealand, I say, bring back the hobbit ole, 106 00:04:38,733 --> 00:04:40,813 Speaker 2: bring back the maize. Why do we have to live 107 00:04:40,813 --> 00:04:43,173 Speaker 2: in shopping shopping more food courts. 108 00:04:43,693 --> 00:04:45,093 Speaker 4: This is going to be a big one. We've already 109 00:04:45,093 --> 00:04:46,413 Speaker 4: had small. 110 00:04:46,133 --> 00:04:49,973 Speaker 2: Isolated areas, weird knocks and crannies. Bring them back. 111 00:04:50,053 --> 00:04:52,413 Speaker 4: This whole opening everything up, bring the maze back. 112 00:04:52,813 --> 00:04:53,653 Speaker 2: I'm angry about it. 113 00:04:53,813 --> 00:04:55,893 Speaker 4: You are very angry about it, and a lot a 114 00:04:55,973 --> 00:04:57,573 Speaker 4: lot of listeners are angry as well. But that is 115 00:04:57,653 --> 00:05:00,253 Speaker 4: after three o'clock. After two o'clock, it seems more and 116 00:05:00,293 --> 00:05:03,253 Speaker 4: more young families are moving away from the big cities. 117 00:05:04,013 --> 00:05:06,653 Speaker 4: Arguably it's not just because of the lifestyle. They say 118 00:05:06,693 --> 00:05:09,413 Speaker 4: it's getting too expensive and the big cities for food, 119 00:05:09,493 --> 00:05:12,373 Speaker 4: for petrol, for housing and even childcare. 120 00:05:12,813 --> 00:05:14,893 Speaker 2: Is it really that much cheaper in the small towns. 121 00:05:15,413 --> 00:05:16,853 Speaker 2: That's what I want to ask on one hundred and 122 00:05:16,853 --> 00:05:19,093 Speaker 2: eighteen eighty what are the but also what are the 123 00:05:19,093 --> 00:05:21,133 Speaker 2: advantage of the big city if the big city is 124 00:05:21,133 --> 00:05:23,293 Speaker 2: so much more expensive in taking housing out of there? 125 00:05:23,333 --> 00:05:26,053 Speaker 2: Obviously houses are more expensive in Auckland, that's a given 126 00:05:26,373 --> 00:05:30,053 Speaker 2: than they are in Milton. But why do most of 127 00:05:30,093 --> 00:05:31,493 Speaker 2: us stay in the big cities if it's so much 128 00:05:31,493 --> 00:05:32,853 Speaker 2: better and cheaper in the small towns. 129 00:05:32,893 --> 00:05:35,253 Speaker 4: Yeap, looking forward to that after two o'clock. But right now, 130 00:05:35,493 --> 00:05:38,133 Speaker 4: let's have a chat about parking. The number of drivers 131 00:05:38,173 --> 00:05:42,853 Speaker 4: pinged annually by at Auckland Transports license plate recognition vehicles 132 00:05:42,933 --> 00:05:46,133 Speaker 4: is almost double, so data provided to Newstalk ZB shows 133 00:05:46,213 --> 00:05:50,013 Speaker 4: this new technology. They issued more than five hundred and 134 00:05:50,053 --> 00:05:53,613 Speaker 4: eighteen thousand finds last year. That's almost twice as many 135 00:05:54,053 --> 00:05:56,293 Speaker 4: as the fines they handed out in twenty twenty three, 136 00:05:56,893 --> 00:05:59,973 Speaker 4: and the most common type of infringement was failing to 137 00:06:00,013 --> 00:06:03,453 Speaker 4: pay for parking in paid zones. Boom, that's seventy bucks 138 00:06:03,533 --> 00:06:03,853 Speaker 4: right there. 139 00:06:04,413 --> 00:06:07,853 Speaker 2: Look, I'm angry about this, and I think that the 140 00:06:07,893 --> 00:06:11,213 Speaker 2: council in New Zealand and parking enforcement has broken an 141 00:06:11,333 --> 00:06:17,053 Speaker 2: unspoken fear, unspoken rules of fear competition, the cheeky back 142 00:06:17,093 --> 00:06:21,333 Speaker 2: and forth, the cat and mouse between parker and parking enforcement. 143 00:06:21,973 --> 00:06:26,333 Speaker 2: And you know, we never signed up for fuel full 144 00:06:27,173 --> 00:06:30,893 Speaker 2: nuclear attack on us. We're just driving at pace around 145 00:06:30,933 --> 00:06:33,853 Speaker 2: pinging everyone. That's not what we signed up for. There 146 00:06:33,933 --> 00:06:35,853 Speaker 2: used to be an area if out there, if it 147 00:06:35,893 --> 00:06:38,133 Speaker 2: was raining, you'd know that the parking warden couldn't be 148 00:06:38,173 --> 00:06:40,053 Speaker 2: bothered walking around, so you could park out there all 149 00:06:40,133 --> 00:06:41,773 Speaker 2: day and that was just a little bit of joy 150 00:06:41,813 --> 00:06:44,693 Speaker 2: in the life of the citizens of the city. And 151 00:06:44,733 --> 00:06:46,533 Speaker 2: if they're going to go full nuclear on us, maybe 152 00:06:46,573 --> 00:06:48,693 Speaker 2: we should question their right to charge us to park 153 00:06:48,733 --> 00:06:51,333 Speaker 2: on our own streets at all. 154 00:06:51,453 --> 00:06:53,813 Speaker 4: You're pushing back out on this, Yeah, this is where 155 00:06:53,813 --> 00:06:56,093 Speaker 4: the campaign starts for Matt haat oh one hundred and 156 00:06:56,133 --> 00:06:59,213 Speaker 4: eighty ten eighty. I do get your point on the 157 00:06:59,253 --> 00:07:01,973 Speaker 4: cat and mouse situation, and we've all done it. And 158 00:07:02,453 --> 00:07:04,773 Speaker 4: you talk about the scenario where it's pouring down with 159 00:07:04,893 --> 00:07:06,733 Speaker 4: rain you park because you think that the warden's not 160 00:07:06,773 --> 00:07:08,973 Speaker 4: going to been out. If there is a ward and 161 00:07:09,013 --> 00:07:11,213 Speaker 4: that's hardy enough to be out there, then you say, 162 00:07:11,253 --> 00:07:13,653 Speaker 4: fair cop, well done. You put yourself in that environment. 163 00:07:13,853 --> 00:07:16,933 Speaker 4: It's you versus me. You got me in that scenario. Yeah, 164 00:07:16,973 --> 00:07:19,413 Speaker 4: fair cop, I'm almost happy to pay that fine. But 165 00:07:19,453 --> 00:07:22,933 Speaker 4: you see that that punishing car flying around it loves 166 00:07:22,933 --> 00:07:25,893 Speaker 4: around here, actually drift netting, drift netting everybody. 167 00:07:26,053 --> 00:07:28,973 Speaker 2: And before people say, oh look, these these tickets are 168 00:07:29,533 --> 00:07:33,133 Speaker 2: you know they're they're you know, these parking enforcement and 169 00:07:33,213 --> 00:07:37,493 Speaker 2: staff is you know, it's just about moving cars through rubbish. 170 00:07:37,613 --> 00:07:39,813 Speaker 2: It is not, because you're pinging people on Sundays and 171 00:07:39,813 --> 00:07:43,053 Speaker 2: you're not pinging people where the congestion is. But my 172 00:07:43,173 --> 00:07:46,173 Speaker 2: thing is, sure, maybe you can argue that you could 173 00:07:46,213 --> 00:07:49,253 Speaker 2: find someone for staying over three hours, sure, but that 174 00:07:49,333 --> 00:07:51,853 Speaker 2: first three hours, the first minute shouldn't be charged because 175 00:07:51,853 --> 00:07:54,893 Speaker 2: these are our roads that we've paid for. So if 176 00:07:55,373 --> 00:07:58,453 Speaker 2: there's a congestion problem, then give people two hours free 177 00:07:58,493 --> 00:08:01,493 Speaker 2: parking in the areas you want people to go, and 178 00:08:01,533 --> 00:08:04,973 Speaker 2: then then maybe find them after that. But the idea 179 00:08:04,973 --> 00:08:07,933 Speaker 2: that we start paying from the second we park there 180 00:08:07,973 --> 00:08:11,133 Speaker 2: and then get fined if we stay over it's just 181 00:08:11,173 --> 00:08:13,973 Speaker 2: it's overreach. And we were willing to let it go 182 00:08:14,093 --> 00:08:16,733 Speaker 2: for a while because there was a fair cat mouth, 183 00:08:16,813 --> 00:08:18,333 Speaker 2: there was a bit of a game going on. But 184 00:08:18,373 --> 00:08:20,893 Speaker 2: if they're just going to go full nuclear and blast 185 00:08:20,933 --> 00:08:23,933 Speaker 2: around at pace with their stupid cars, just pinging absolutely 186 00:08:23,973 --> 00:08:28,493 Speaker 2: everyone treating the citizens of New Zealand as the enemies 187 00:08:28,813 --> 00:08:33,373 Speaker 2: of the state, then no, the gloves are off.

No, it's 193 00:08:45,773 --> 00:08:48,932 Speaker 2: a big income stream out of the citizens of a 194 00:08:49,012 --> 00:08:52,333 Speaker 2: city towards the council to spend in all kinds of 195 00:08:52,333 --> 00:08:54,693 Speaker 2: crazy ways.

At has made a decision that they're a 338 00:15:37,493 --> 00:15:42,533 Speaker 8: lot parking enforcement cards are a lot more efficient, and 339 00:15:42,653 --> 00:15:45,733 Speaker 8: I guess you know, really some of the safety concernsu 340 00:15:45,853 --> 00:15:48,613 Speaker 8: raised about parking parking water v issue for us. Is 341 00:15:49,533 --> 00:15:53,613 Speaker 8: there a problem with people finding parking? That's what you know, 342 00:15:53,653 --> 00:15:55,773 Speaker 8: the parking strategies meant to be behind. And if that's 343 00:15:55,813 --> 00:16:01,133 Speaker 8: the case, then obviously parking does need to be enforced. 344 00:16:01,173 --> 00:16:05,173 Speaker 8: But yeah, this number is a huge increase in one year. 345 00:16:05,733 --> 00:16:07,813 Speaker 4: Do you think it is fair that they have these 346 00:16:07,933 --> 00:16:10,532 Speaker 4: vehicles driving in loops all day trying to find these 347 00:16:10,573 --> 00:16:12,813 Speaker 4: people park for a couple of minutes over over what 348 00:16:12,853 --> 00:16:15,053 Speaker 4: they pay. Do you think that is fair cop or 349 00:16:15,093 --> 00:16:16,093 Speaker 4: just a little bit overboard. 350 00:16:17,373 --> 00:16:21,053 Speaker 8: I think they're becoming increasingly common throughout the world, and 351 00:16:21,093 --> 00:16:24,013 Speaker 8: there are an other cities cities to so it's it's 352 00:16:24,013 --> 00:16:27,412 Speaker 8: probably just you know, we're getting getting speed tickets and 353 00:16:28,213 --> 00:16:32,493 Speaker 8: under things acually this way to it's it's it's really 354 00:16:32,533 --> 00:16:36,533 Speaker 8: a question of what problem they're trying to solve and 355 00:16:37,373 --> 00:16:40,573 Speaker 8: the legitimate parking shortages people are coming into areas and 356 00:16:40,693 --> 00:16:42,733 Speaker 8: not driving around around and not be able to get apart. 357 00:16:44,533 --> 00:16:46,813 Speaker 8: It kind of makes sense a lot to use these 358 00:16:47,213 --> 00:16:51,373 Speaker 8: alongside parking wardens. But where there's where there's not a problem, 359 00:16:51,893 --> 00:16:55,373 Speaker 8: you know, it just does with everybody's suspicion that it's 360 00:16:55,373 --> 00:16:56,573 Speaker 8: just about revenue generation. 361 00:16:57,133 --> 00:17:00,613 Speaker 2: Well, it's just about revenue generation, though, isn't it isn't 362 00:17:00,653 --> 00:17:04,573 Speaker 2: that Isn't that clearly the case? Because you know they're 363 00:17:04,613 --> 00:17:08,253 Speaker 2: they're they're pinging people in areas where there isn't can 364 00:17:08,333 --> 00:17:11,093 Speaker 2: congestion and pinging people at times when there isn't congestion. 365 00:17:11,253 --> 00:17:13,293 Speaker 2: So how do they justify that that has to be 366 00:17:13,333 --> 00:17:14,413 Speaker 2: about revenue generation. 367 00:17:15,813 --> 00:17:18,733 Speaker 8: I haven't seen any of the specific data. I mean, 368 00:17:18,773 --> 00:17:21,653 Speaker 8: this is something we've asked at time and time about 369 00:17:21,813 --> 00:17:24,253 Speaker 8: over the years, even before these cars. 370 00:17:24,093 --> 00:17:24,573 Speaker 2: Are around them. 371 00:17:24,973 --> 00:17:29,693 Speaker 8: They have a short asset's about addressing the problem by 372 00:17:29,773 --> 00:17:34,933 Speaker 8: that by the same token. In the last year or two, 373 00:17:34,973 --> 00:17:37,253 Speaker 8: it's the council. The mayor and the council have been 374 00:17:37,333 --> 00:17:42,893 Speaker 8: leaning on at to raise or cover more of its 375 00:17:42,893 --> 00:17:45,933 Speaker 8: costs from its own sources, and have particularly highlighted parking. 376 00:17:46,013 --> 00:17:48,093 Speaker 8: So I think it's a yeah, I do think it's 377 00:17:48,093 --> 00:17:52,133 Speaker 8: a reasonable supposition that not every parking car out there 378 00:17:52,213 --> 00:17:56,133 Speaker 8: is just is just doing it to make sure parking 379 00:17:56,133 --> 00:17:57,133 Speaker 8: is available for people. 380 00:17:57,493 --> 00:17:59,653 Speaker 4: Surely there's something in the double amount of fines, I mean, 381 00:17:59,733 --> 00:18:02,653 Speaker 4: half a million infringements and the big chunk of those 382 00:18:02,693 --> 00:18:05,053 Speaker 4: who are around parking enforcement. Does it not take the 383 00:18:05,133 --> 00:18:07,613 Speaker 4: human element out of it? Martin that it does feel 384 00:18:07,613 --> 00:18:10,733 Speaker 4: an attack on citizens rather than seeing the context of 385 00:18:10,733 --> 00:18:13,333 Speaker 4: why someone might have stopped for an extra minute in 386 00:18:13,373 --> 00:18:15,293 Speaker 4: a particular parking spot. You get what I mean that 387 00:18:15,333 --> 00:18:18,053 Speaker 4: if there's a human warden and there's an emergency that's 388 00:18:18,133 --> 00:18:21,532 Speaker 4: happened or whatever the reason is, there's that human element 389 00:18:21,573 --> 00:18:23,933 Speaker 4: to say, hey, fair cop, you can't park here, do 390 00:18:23,973 --> 00:18:25,893 Speaker 4: what you need to do and move on, rather than 391 00:18:26,013 --> 00:18:27,693 Speaker 4: just smashing them all with these fines. 392 00:18:29,213 --> 00:18:31,853 Speaker 8: I think that's a very legitimate question. It's something that 393 00:18:31,933 --> 00:18:35,893 Speaker 8: you'd need to put to at itself. I know, I 394 00:18:36,013 --> 00:18:41,773 Speaker 8: understand the the parking charges are initially checked in an office. 395 00:18:42,453 --> 00:18:44,493 Speaker 8: That's differently. Obviously they're being on the street and being 396 00:18:44,493 --> 00:18:51,493 Speaker 8: able to listen to somebody's explanation. But yes, without that, 397 00:18:51,693 --> 00:18:53,733 Speaker 8: you can't tell us, you know, does someone have a 398 00:18:53,853 --> 00:18:56,733 Speaker 8: legitimate reason? But as you say, just being a minute 399 00:18:56,813 --> 00:19:00,813 Speaker 8: or two over or having not even paid a parking charge, 400 00:19:00,853 --> 00:19:04,053 Speaker 8: because I note that was the thing the at spokes highlighted. 401 00:19:04,053 --> 00:19:05,773 Speaker 8: It seem to be the most common thing. People haven't 402 00:19:05,773 --> 00:19:08,013 Speaker 8: paid a parking charge at all. So it's probably deshing 403 00:19:08,013 --> 00:19:10,333 Speaker 8: into the shop for a minute or two and picking 404 00:19:10,333 --> 00:19:12,293 Speaker 8: it's not worth paying and packing charge. 405 00:19:12,293 --> 00:19:14,493 Speaker 2: And then some punishes zooms passed and pings them with 406 00:19:14,573 --> 00:19:18,532 Speaker 2: no nuance at all. So if this, you know, it 407 00:19:18,533 --> 00:19:20,493 Speaker 2: gets to the point where it's no longer a friendly 408 00:19:20,613 --> 00:19:23,573 Speaker 2: back and forth and there's no gray area in terms 409 00:19:23,613 --> 00:19:27,373 Speaker 2: of some you know, empathy or consideration about what people 410 00:19:27,413 --> 00:19:30,173 Speaker 2: are doing in their day because we're all members of 411 00:19:30,213 --> 00:19:33,813 Speaker 2: this of any particular city we live in, and you know, 412 00:19:33,853 --> 00:19:35,693 Speaker 2: we're all trying to get around and do our business 413 00:19:35,693 --> 00:19:39,933 Speaker 2: and visit shops and keep the economy running. So is 414 00:19:39,973 --> 00:19:43,093 Speaker 2: it time to ask questions around their right to charge 415 00:19:43,133 --> 00:19:44,893 Speaker 2: us at all? We've already paid for the roads through 416 00:19:44,973 --> 00:19:48,733 Speaker 2: rates and taxes, and you know, isn't it our right 417 00:19:48,813 --> 00:19:51,693 Speaker 2: to just park on the road that we already own? 418 00:19:51,853 --> 00:19:55,053 Speaker 2: I mean, the council doesn't own it, the citizens own it. 419 00:19:55,093 --> 00:19:58,052 Speaker 2: So I could maybe understand if they find you if 420 00:19:58,093 --> 00:20:00,893 Speaker 2: you've been there for two hours, But where does the 421 00:20:00,933 --> 00:20:04,093 Speaker 2: moral right to charge us for the first from minute 422 00:20:04,133 --> 00:20:05,733 Speaker 2: one that we park on our own streets. 423 00:20:08,413 --> 00:20:10,333 Speaker 8: I mean, I agree with you, and I think there 424 00:20:10,373 --> 00:20:14,173 Speaker 8: is an element of with any fine, whether it's parking 425 00:20:14,373 --> 00:20:16,933 Speaker 8: or anything else, there needs to be an element of discretion. 426 00:20:17,053 --> 00:20:19,653 Speaker 8: And that's where the human factor comes in it. I 427 00:20:19,693 --> 00:20:23,733 Speaker 8: don't know what the AT back office does when these 428 00:20:23,773 --> 00:20:29,093 Speaker 8: cameras presumably download all the infringements you've taken, and I 429 00:20:29,173 --> 00:20:31,613 Speaker 8: understand the humans still got to look at them one 430 00:20:31,653 --> 00:20:34,973 Speaker 8: by one, but it would say you could argue that 431 00:20:34,973 --> 00:20:37,493 Speaker 8: that's you know, that's too remote to kind of understand 432 00:20:37,493 --> 00:20:41,333 Speaker 8: everybody's circumstances. So yeah, there is people do have an 433 00:20:41,333 --> 00:20:44,133 Speaker 8: objection right process they can go through, and I know 434 00:20:44,173 --> 00:20:48,573 Speaker 8: that's something else A members reasonably regularly contact us about. 435 00:20:49,373 --> 00:20:52,133 Speaker 2: Now the AT is always talking about, and this is 436 00:20:52,173 --> 00:20:55,093 Speaker 2: true across the whole country. They're talking about, you know, 437 00:20:55,533 --> 00:20:57,773 Speaker 2: congestion problems. And this might be a bit of a 438 00:20:57,853 --> 00:21:01,413 Speaker 2: leading question, but who's fault is the shortage of parking 439 00:21:01,653 --> 00:21:03,933 Speaker 2: in the CBD of say Auckland. 440 00:21:06,573 --> 00:21:08,213 Speaker 8: Well, I was able to listen to some of your 441 00:21:09,413 --> 00:21:14,573 Speaker 8: story a few minutes ago. An Auckland Council that to 442 00:21:14,613 --> 00:21:16,733 Speaker 8: their ride, has been going through a kind of city 443 00:21:16,773 --> 00:21:20,613 Speaker 8: center access plan for the best part of a decade now, 444 00:21:20,773 --> 00:21:22,973 Speaker 8: of which the city rail link is one of the 445 00:21:23,053 --> 00:21:26,933 Speaker 8: centerpieces and it's aimed at making it more easier for 446 00:21:27,013 --> 00:21:28,853 Speaker 8: other modes to get around. And that's that's all the 447 00:21:28,933 --> 00:21:30,933 Speaker 8: said at next sense of the car, So that's a 448 00:21:32,053 --> 00:21:35,253 Speaker 8: legitimate question to put to them. There are there buildings 449 00:21:35,333 --> 00:21:39,773 Speaker 8: like the Downtown Car Park which holds two thousand people 450 00:21:40,933 --> 00:21:46,053 Speaker 8: that have been sold to to to development that's planning 451 00:21:46,093 --> 00:21:50,173 Speaker 8: on putting high rises up. Auckland Council continuously sees the 452 00:21:50,933 --> 00:21:53,933 Speaker 8: off street parking there is a setplus available that's never full. 453 00:21:55,773 --> 00:21:57,853 Speaker 8: It doesn't need to preside the down to parking space 454 00:21:57,893 --> 00:22:01,013 Speaker 8: that it wants to. But you're right, it's still the 455 00:22:01,053 --> 00:22:05,013 Speaker 8: main way most of us access the city center as 456 00:22:05,093 --> 00:22:08,133 Speaker 8: through the cars, so you're getting that balance rights tricky. 457 00:22:08,653 --> 00:22:11,453 Speaker 4: Yeah, thank you so much, great discussion, Martin. Thank you 458 00:22:11,573 --> 00:22:13,693 Speaker 4: very much for joining us. Really appreciate it. Have a 459 00:22:13,693 --> 00:22:14,613 Speaker 4: good rest of the afternoon. 460 00:22:15,973 --> 00:22:16,653 Speaker 8: Cheers you guys. 461 00:22:16,693 --> 00:22:16,853 Speaker 11: Tea. 462 00:22:17,093 --> 00:22:20,013 Speaker 4: That is Martin Glenn, policy director for the AA. 463 00:22:20,293 --> 00:22:23,333 Speaker 2: So they make it impossible for us to park anywhere 464 00:22:23,373 --> 00:22:26,893 Speaker 2: reasonably and go about our business to make their plans 465 00:22:26,933 --> 00:22:31,453 Speaker 2: that they've had successful, to force them to make a 466 00:22:31,493 --> 00:22:34,053 Speaker 2: success of their crazy plans that they've put in place, 467 00:22:34,573 --> 00:22:38,333 Speaker 2: and then they deploy an army of robots against us 468 00:22:38,373 --> 00:22:41,853 Speaker 2: to punish us on the back end. So they're attacking 469 00:22:41,893 --> 00:22:46,133 Speaker 2: the citizens of the city from two ends for their 470 00:22:46,253 --> 00:22:50,813 Speaker 2: own strange plans and schemes that we're not really a 471 00:22:50,853 --> 00:22:51,213 Speaker 2: party to. 472 00:22:51,293 --> 00:22:53,613 Speaker 4: It's a beautiful analogy, and can I just say it's 473 00:22:54,133 --> 00:22:56,693 Speaker 4: at is obviously the one handing out half a million 474 00:22:56,733 --> 00:22:59,653 Speaker 4: infringements over the past year. But talking about the free 475 00:22:59,733 --> 00:23:02,333 Speaker 4: hour of parking, the CBD and christ Church for example, 476 00:23:02,373 --> 00:23:05,373 Speaker 4: nobody was going in. One councilor suggested, hey, why not 477 00:23:05,813 --> 00:23:09,773 Speaker 4: just offer one hour of free parking. Council said nap, No, 478 00:23:09,973 --> 00:23:11,853 Speaker 4: don't want to do that. So they got shut down 479 00:23:12,213 --> 00:23:14,373 Speaker 4: and that was effectively anti business, That's what it was, 480 00:23:14,413 --> 00:23:17,413 Speaker 4: because the one councilor is not a counselor anymore. Jamie 481 00:23:17,413 --> 00:23:20,453 Speaker 4: Goff said that the businesses are struggling here, Why is 482 00:23:20,493 --> 00:23:22,773 Speaker 4: it so controversial just to offer that one hour of 483 00:23:22,773 --> 00:23:25,292 Speaker 4: free parking get people back in? Because I'm buggering off 484 00:23:25,293 --> 00:23:26,733 Speaker 4: to the malls and everyone said, no, the. 485 00:23:26,693 --> 00:23:28,853 Speaker 2: Malls can do it exactly. The malls can give you 486 00:23:28,893 --> 00:23:31,213 Speaker 2: three hours of free parking one hundred percent. Yeah, okay, 487 00:23:31,893 --> 00:23:35,853 Speaker 2: but we can't park on our own roads that we 488 00:23:35,933 --> 00:23:38,813 Speaker 2: paid for with our rates and taxes for free. Yeah, 489 00:23:39,293 --> 00:23:42,453 Speaker 2: to go about and further the economy by going into 490 00:23:42,493 --> 00:23:45,173 Speaker 2: shops and going about our business. But the malls can 491 00:23:45,173 --> 00:23:46,173 Speaker 2: give it to us for free. 492 00:23:46,293 --> 00:23:48,453 Speaker 4: Exactly. Oh, one hundred and eighty ten eighty is that 493 00:23:48,533 --> 00:23:50,493 Speaker 4: number of cool headlines with Raylan coming up? 494 00:23:52,773 --> 00:23:56,453 Speaker 12: You talk said the headlines with blue bubble taxes. It's 495 00:23:56,533 --> 00:24:00,173 Speaker 12: no trouble with a blue bubble labors. Sweetening an election 496 00:24:00,293 --> 00:24:03,413 Speaker 12: policy for a capital gains tax with a promise the 497 00:24:03,453 --> 00:24:07,173 Speaker 12: money will go into health, including funding three free GP 498 00:24:07,373 --> 00:24:10,493 Speaker 12: visits a year. It would only apply to investment and 499 00:24:10,573 --> 00:24:15,293 Speaker 12: commercial properties.

So we're talking about Auckland 515 00:25:10,893 --> 00:25:14,572 Speaker 4: Transport handing out double the number of infringements and they 516 00:25:14,613 --> 00:25:18,573 Speaker 4: did the previous year almost no over half a million infringements. 517 00:25:18,773 --> 00:25:22,053 Speaker 4: Most of those were for parking enforcement. And they're able 518 00:25:22,053 --> 00:25:24,813 Speaker 4: to do this because they've got this license plate recognition 519 00:25:25,333 --> 00:25:28,133 Speaker 4: technology that they've rolled out over the previous year, which 520 00:25:28,173 --> 00:25:30,213 Speaker 4: is effectively like carpet bombing. 521 00:25:30,373 --> 00:25:33,053 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right, they're going hard on us. They've decided 522 00:25:33,053 --> 00:25:37,093 Speaker 2: to full out no nuance war against the citizens of 523 00:25:37,853 --> 00:25:41,213 Speaker 2: the city Sylvia says, I agree with Matt. Where is 524 00:25:41,213 --> 00:25:43,733 Speaker 2: the good will? Where is the room for making mistakes? Yeah? 525 00:25:43,773 --> 00:25:47,053 Speaker 4: Spot On nicely said that nuance and that context. 526 00:25:47,453 --> 00:25:48,453 Speaker 2: Pete, welcome to the show. 527 00:25:49,613 --> 00:25:51,813 Speaker 13: Yeah you go, just like that gentleman Sere from the 528 00:25:51,853 --> 00:25:54,933 Speaker 13: AA there. But I can't see what they're how the 529 00:25:55,053 --> 00:25:59,413 Speaker 13: councils or especially like Auckland. I think it's about time 530 00:25:59,493 --> 00:26:03,213 Speaker 13: the government stepped in because what's happening now is they're 531 00:26:03,293 --> 00:26:07,733 Speaker 13: using this modern technology solely to their advantage, these councils. 532 00:26:07,813 --> 00:26:10,253 Speaker 13: And they know they've got that technology now. They never 533 00:26:10,333 --> 00:26:14,573 Speaker 13: had that technology before. So the government is trying to 534 00:26:14,613 --> 00:26:17,292 Speaker 13: get people in the cities. I've got a sister up 535 00:26:17,293 --> 00:26:20,373 Speaker 13: on Auckland and she won't go in town now, which 536 00:26:20,453 --> 00:26:22,893 Speaker 13: is too scared where all human beings are. We not 537 00:26:22,973 --> 00:26:25,573 Speaker 13: people come into cities. I'm from New Plymouth, I come, 538 00:26:25,733 --> 00:26:27,453 Speaker 13: I go up Ortland. I don't won't go up there 539 00:26:27,453 --> 00:26:28,773 Speaker 13: anymore now. So I put it going to end up 540 00:26:28,773 --> 00:26:32,013 Speaker 13: a five hundred, five hundred dollar fines for parking or 541 00:26:32,013 --> 00:26:36,573 Speaker 13: maybe a loading zone for two minutes to get my bearings. 542 00:26:36,973 --> 00:26:39,333 Speaker 13: There should be a grace period where these park I 543 00:26:39,413 --> 00:26:42,093 Speaker 13: call them, these parking people, they just a bunch of 544 00:26:42,093 --> 00:26:43,933 Speaker 13: their bunch. I call them a bunch of crims. That's 545 00:26:43,973 --> 00:26:48,613 Speaker 13: what they are. Greedy, they have no dignity at all. 546 00:26:48,653 --> 00:26:52,173 Speaker 13: They're just fleecing people. And I pritty myself, it's about 547 00:26:52,213 --> 00:26:55,333 Speaker 13: time the government stepped in. There is a leeway, yeah, 548 00:26:55,333 --> 00:26:57,813 Speaker 13: and a your phone goes, you pull over, you want 549 00:26:57,853 --> 00:27:01,052 Speaker 13: to get your bearings at your GPS or whatever. They 550 00:27:01,093 --> 00:27:03,573 Speaker 13: should not be able to park you basically park now 551 00:27:03,613 --> 00:27:06,053 Speaker 13: for thirty seconds whatever they pin you that. It's not 552 00:27:06,213 --> 00:27:08,693 Speaker 13: fear So I think it's about time the government did 553 00:27:08,733 --> 00:27:11,973 Speaker 13: something and also the Auckland Council give people a bit 554 00:27:12,013 --> 00:27:14,213 Speaker 13: of a credibility and treat them with dignity. 555 00:27:14,733 --> 00:27:17,253 Speaker 2: Look good on your pete. Yeah, I mean that's right. 556 00:27:17,653 --> 00:27:21,213 Speaker 2: That's the whole thing. It's the it's the the blanket, 557 00:27:21,293 --> 00:27:25,733 Speaker 2: the one hundred percent efficiency. The way the no nuance 558 00:27:25,813 --> 00:27:29,573 Speaker 2: war against us parking is tricky as some cafes, laundromats 559 00:27:29,573 --> 00:27:31,733 Speaker 2: have designated parking and some people want to park there 560 00:27:31,733 --> 00:27:35,052 Speaker 2: all day and then have all sorts of excuses. Unfortunately, 561 00:27:35,093 --> 00:27:37,693 Speaker 2: so there can't be exemptions rules. Otherwise they park in 562 00:27:37,733 --> 00:27:40,773 Speaker 2: supermarkets et cetera, and it will annoy us. Well, parking 563 00:27:40,813 --> 00:27:44,773 Speaker 2: the supermarkets. That's a private matter, but yeah, I mean 564 00:27:44,813 --> 00:27:47,653 Speaker 2: I get that. So if you're in front of a 565 00:27:47,733 --> 00:27:49,933 Speaker 2: dairy and you need people to move on, then maybe 566 00:27:49,933 --> 00:27:51,973 Speaker 2: you have you know, you can have those fifteen minute zones, 567 00:27:52,573 --> 00:27:56,053 Speaker 2: but they're free, so you can park for fifteen minutes 568 00:27:56,053 --> 00:27:57,653 Speaker 2: for free as long as you move on ping the 569 00:27:57,693 --> 00:28:00,373 Speaker 2: people for not moving on. What I'm complaining about is 570 00:28:00,413 --> 00:28:04,133 Speaker 2: that they start charging you from second one and then 571 00:28:04,373 --> 00:28:10,533 Speaker 2: they unreleased on the zero nuance for technology punishment on you. 572 00:28:10,533 --> 00:28:14,853 Speaker 2: You know, if you if you are there for even 573 00:28:15,293 --> 00:28:17,053 Speaker 2: you know, one minute too long? 574 00:28:17,173 --> 00:28:18,333 Speaker 4: Yeah, what do you say? 575 00:28:18,333 --> 00:28:18,453 Speaker 5: Oh? 576 00:28:18,493 --> 00:28:20,413 Speaker 4: Eight, one hundred and eighty ten eighty is the number 577 00:28:20,453 --> 00:28:22,813 Speaker 4: to cour if you've recently been fined. And there's a 578 00:28:22,853 --> 00:28:24,693 Speaker 4: lot of people that have been picked up by this 579 00:28:24,733 --> 00:28:27,853 Speaker 4: new technology, over half a million. Love to hear from you. 580 00:28:27,893 --> 00:28:30,253 Speaker 4: What happened? How long were you parked up? And did 581 00:28:30,253 --> 00:28:32,253 Speaker 4: you manage to fight the power? Nine two nine two 582 00:28:32,413 --> 00:28:34,533 Speaker 4: is the text number as well. Back in a mow, 583 00:28:34,693 --> 00:28:36,133 Speaker 4: it is nineteen to two. 584 00:28:36,293 --> 00:28:39,173 Speaker 2: Tyler, concentrate on the show, stop watching the baseball on 585 00:28:39,213 --> 00:28:39,813 Speaker 2: the team mate. 586 00:28:39,813 --> 00:28:41,213 Speaker 4: I'm going to turn that tally off in a minute. 587 00:28:41,853 --> 00:28:45,373 Speaker 2: You got it. My last focus in the middle of 588 00:28:45,373 --> 00:28:45,813 Speaker 2: my center. 589 00:28:47,853 --> 00:28:51,333 Speaker 1: Matt Heath, Taylor Adams with you as your afternoon rolls on. 590 00:28:51,573 --> 00:28:54,693 Speaker 1: Matt Heath and Taylor Adams afternoons news talks. 591 00:28:54,693 --> 00:28:56,933 Speaker 4: They'd be We're a good afternoons here. We're talking about 592 00:28:56,933 --> 00:28:59,933 Speaker 4: the number of parking infringement AT have issued. It doubled 593 00:28:59,973 --> 00:29:02,333 Speaker 4: in the previous year, over half a million. Most of 594 00:29:02,373 --> 00:29:04,373 Speaker 4: that is for parking. And the reason they can do 595 00:29:04,373 --> 00:29:06,373 Speaker 4: that is because they've got this new tech. They don't 596 00:29:06,413 --> 00:29:08,493 Speaker 4: need to even need wardens on the ground anymore to 597 00:29:08,613 --> 00:29:11,293 Speaker 4: drive around in those cars and sting you left, right 598 00:29:11,373 --> 00:29:13,493 Speaker 4: and center. Is that fair cop or does it go 599 00:29:13,573 --> 00:29:13,893 Speaker 4: too far? 600 00:29:14,213 --> 00:29:18,053 Speaker 2: Is it zero empathy, zero gray area tech deployed against 601 00:29:18,053 --> 00:29:21,773 Speaker 2: the cities of the city together revenue for the dubious 602 00:29:21,813 --> 00:29:26,253 Speaker 2: plans is this text says it's called social engineering, guys, 603 00:29:26,293 --> 00:29:29,933 Speaker 2: and down here in Wellington, the WCC are in the 604 00:29:29,933 --> 00:29:32,653 Speaker 2: business of telling us how to live our lives. This 605 00:29:32,773 --> 00:29:34,333 Speaker 2: Texas says it's time to call Batman. 606 00:29:35,373 --> 00:29:38,133 Speaker 4: It's ten minutes of Gotham City. This texture is actually 607 00:29:38,133 --> 00:29:41,013 Speaker 4: pushing back. Get over at your wines. The AT app 608 00:29:41,093 --> 00:29:43,733 Speaker 4: is very easy to use. Parking is not expensive at 609 00:29:43,773 --> 00:29:45,453 Speaker 4: two bucks an hour. The app lets you know when 610 00:29:45,453 --> 00:29:47,453 Speaker 4: your parking time is up or so when you park, 611 00:29:47,693 --> 00:29:49,613 Speaker 4: you can say how long you're going to park. So 612 00:29:49,613 --> 00:29:51,213 Speaker 4: if you think you're going to be an hour, it's 613 00:29:51,213 --> 00:29:53,533 Speaker 4: best to put two hours, because when you go back, 614 00:29:53,533 --> 00:29:55,613 Speaker 4: it only charges you for the time you actually use. 615 00:29:55,853 --> 00:29:57,973 Speaker 4: The biggest problem I have is finding a park. 616 00:29:58,413 --> 00:30:00,493 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that's because they've removed all the parks. 617 00:30:00,573 --> 00:30:02,453 Speaker 2: But secondly, you could ask the question why are they 618 00:30:02,533 --> 00:30:04,653 Speaker 2: charging us from a minute one at all to park 619 00:30:04,693 --> 00:30:07,933 Speaker 2: on our own roads? Were saying for with our rates 620 00:30:07,973 --> 00:30:11,453 Speaker 2: and in Texas this Texas is not a fan of 621 00:30:11,493 --> 00:30:13,613 Speaker 2: at But as far as I'm concerned, eight does give 622 00:30:13,613 --> 00:30:15,613 Speaker 2: a ten minute grace period. If someone parks on a 623 00:30:15,613 --> 00:30:18,133 Speaker 2: paid parking spot and didn't pay, they will only be 624 00:30:18,173 --> 00:30:21,453 Speaker 2: pinned it pinned and charged on the second time they 625 00:30:21,453 --> 00:30:23,453 Speaker 2: are seen on the same spot and have not moved. 626 00:30:24,213 --> 00:30:26,973 Speaker 4: Okay, undred and eighty seen eighty is that number of time? 627 00:30:27,093 --> 00:30:29,013 Speaker 2: That's not what some of our uber drivers are saying 628 00:30:29,013 --> 00:30:31,573 Speaker 2: that they're experiencing. Let's go to Ken Welcome to the show. 629 00:30:33,053 --> 00:30:38,933 Speaker 6: Oh guys, First of all, how do we determine parking? 630 00:30:39,573 --> 00:30:42,813 Speaker 6: To me, if you're sat in the car, even if 631 00:30:42,813 --> 00:30:45,413 Speaker 6: the eroine is off. You're not parked, You're only stuck. 632 00:30:46,613 --> 00:30:46,853 Speaker 2: Yep. 633 00:30:47,173 --> 00:30:49,493 Speaker 6: Well, I worked as a volunteer driver taking people for 634 00:30:49,573 --> 00:30:53,573 Speaker 6: medical appointments, and sometimes I go to the middlemore where 635 00:30:53,573 --> 00:30:55,853 Speaker 6: you're supposed to part. Well, I usually go and park 636 00:30:55,933 --> 00:30:58,453 Speaker 6: down the road at the service station for most of 637 00:30:58,493 --> 00:31:00,493 Speaker 6: the time. Then I might come back up when I 638 00:31:00,533 --> 00:31:03,533 Speaker 6: think the patient's going to be ready, and then sometimes 639 00:31:03,573 --> 00:31:05,813 Speaker 6: I've still been parped in the road for an hour. 640 00:31:06,413 --> 00:31:08,053 Speaker 6: But if I'm sat in the car and one of 641 00:31:08,053 --> 00:31:11,373 Speaker 6: those crumbs down, he's not to know whether he's dole 642 00:31:11,413 --> 00:31:13,133 Speaker 6: un necessarily see whether I'm in the car or not. 643 00:31:13,213 --> 00:31:15,693 Speaker 6: So that if you picking me because I haven't paye 644 00:31:16,253 --> 00:31:18,173 Speaker 6: and yet I'm not really parking money stuff. 645 00:31:18,373 --> 00:31:20,173 Speaker 4: Spot on, I'll meet you whether you ken. If you're 646 00:31:20,213 --> 00:31:22,853 Speaker 4: in your vehicle, then that is not parking up. And 647 00:31:22,893 --> 00:31:24,853 Speaker 4: we've all played that game before that. I five needed 648 00:31:24,853 --> 00:31:27,493 Speaker 4: to shoot in somewhere. I say to my partner, Hey, mate, 649 00:31:27,493 --> 00:31:29,253 Speaker 4: can you jump in the driver's seat just in case 650 00:31:29,293 --> 00:31:30,573 Speaker 4: the warden tells you to move? 651 00:31:31,173 --> 00:31:34,853 Speaker 2: That's fair cop, yeah, but the presence of a driver 652 00:31:35,013 --> 00:31:38,773 Speaker 2: does not grant immunity. In Auckland, transports regulation and new 653 00:31:38,853 --> 00:31:41,093 Speaker 2: Zealand's Land Transport that state that being in a vehicle 654 00:31:41,133 --> 00:31:43,933 Speaker 2: does not exempt it from parking restrictions. The law penalizes 655 00:31:43,973 --> 00:31:48,173 Speaker 2: the act of stopping, standing or parking in a prohibited area, 656 00:31:48,213 --> 00:31:51,453 Speaker 2: regardless of whether the cars occupied right. But I guess 657 00:31:51,453 --> 00:31:53,573 Speaker 2: back in the old day, you know, you leave one 658 00:31:53,693 --> 00:31:57,253 Speaker 2: person in the car and if a parking warden came along, 659 00:31:57,373 --> 00:31:59,573 Speaker 2: you just buzz out of there. Yeah, well you. 660 00:31:59,533 --> 00:32:01,893 Speaker 4: Just go sor right, just moving cat and mouse. 661 00:32:03,053 --> 00:32:03,293 Speaker 14: It was. 662 00:32:03,573 --> 00:32:07,333 Speaker 6: I had another instance that went to gardens play. When 663 00:32:07,373 --> 00:32:09,933 Speaker 6: I take people up to off an hospital, I go 664 00:32:10,013 --> 00:32:12,333 Speaker 6: and park in the winter garden cafe and wait for 665 00:32:12,373 --> 00:32:16,173 Speaker 6: them while their own chemo or radiation and stuff.

So what are 1022 00:48:50,213 --> 00:48:52,493 Speaker 2: they doing out at ten thirty at. 1023 00:48:52,453 --> 00:48:54,053 Speaker 4: Night trying to catch people like Glynn? 1024 00:48:54,053 --> 00:48:58,172 Speaker 2: Clearly that's really that, that's revenue it's got They've got 1025 00:48:58,173 --> 00:49:00,853 Speaker 2: to stop that kind of behavior, yeah, because because you 1026 00:49:00,893 --> 00:49:02,333 Speaker 2: know at that point they're not doing it for any 1027 00:49:02,333 --> 00:49:05,693 Speaker 2: other reason. They're to ping people for cat Yeah. 1028 00:49:05,733 --> 00:49:07,732 Speaker 17: So like yeah, so I thought, what the hell? So 1029 00:49:07,813 --> 00:49:11,853 Speaker 17: I disputed it and said, well they're a bus through 1030 00:49:12,013 --> 00:49:15,133 Speaker 17: you know, I'd rather part my car off the road 1031 00:49:15,533 --> 00:49:17,173 Speaker 17: so my car doesn't get hit by a bus or 1032 00:49:17,293 --> 00:49:20,893 Speaker 17: people you know, having to wait long time, keep passing 1033 00:49:20,893 --> 00:49:24,333 Speaker 17: any type thing. And they wavered the Burmfinne but still 1034 00:49:24,373 --> 00:49:25,133 Speaker 17: did me for the redge. 1035 00:49:26,453 --> 00:49:29,173 Speaker 4: Yeah see, I mean registration to me, I think that 1036 00:49:29,213 --> 00:49:31,493 Speaker 4: should purely just be police officers. I don't think the 1037 00:49:31,573 --> 00:49:33,933 Speaker 4: council should have any right to sting a car that 1038 00:49:33,973 --> 00:49:36,173 Speaker 4: doesn't have a registration. That just feels outside of the 1039 00:49:36,333 --> 00:49:38,692 Speaker 4: jurisdic Get out of it, stick to your I mean, 1040 00:49:39,133 --> 00:49:42,853 Speaker 4: arguably parking isn't there jurisdiction, but just you know, stick 1041 00:49:42,893 --> 00:49:45,053 Speaker 4: to your own lane. Eighty you can't be whacking people 1042 00:49:45,093 --> 00:49:47,013 Speaker 4: for no warrants and no regil as well. Yeah, just 1043 00:49:47,053 --> 00:49:49,732 Speaker 4: get out of it, Yeah, come on, yeah, get out. 1044 00:49:50,053 --> 00:49:52,173 Speaker 4: Arguably Glenn got dobbed on by one of his neighbors 1045 00:49:52,173 --> 00:49:53,693 Speaker 4: as well. So this is what happens if becomes a 1046 00:49:53,813 --> 00:49:56,973 Speaker 4: Gestapo situation where your neighbors are dobbing in boys. 1047 00:49:57,013 --> 00:50:00,093 Speaker 2: This behavior by a parasitic bureaucracy is entirely consistent with 1048 00:50:00,173 --> 00:50:04,413 Speaker 2: their objectives. If you want independent forms of transportation, you 1049 00:50:04,453 --> 00:50:06,893 Speaker 2: will pay and be bled dry for it. Eighty want 1050 00:50:06,933 --> 00:50:09,613 Speaker 2: you on buses and trains on cycles, so you can't 1051 00:50:09,773 --> 00:50:13,613 Speaker 2: leave their greedy grasp. Get out while you can, regard Stephen, 1052 00:50:14,253 --> 00:50:17,053 Speaker 2: I don't know how you get out, Get out of 1053 00:50:17,093 --> 00:50:19,453 Speaker 2: the busy, keep fighting that power. Well, I mean, part 1054 00:50:19,453 --> 00:50:23,013 Speaker 2: of me is suspicious that they have invested so much 1055 00:50:23,253 --> 00:50:27,373 Speaker 2: in certain areas that they have to make it work. Yeah, 1056 00:50:27,573 --> 00:50:30,333 Speaker 2: so you know, and they pull leave. They've got the 1057 00:50:30,453 --> 00:50:33,772 Speaker 2: levers on either side, so they can they can choke 1058 00:50:34,013 --> 00:50:37,413 Speaker 2: and torture and make it as horrible as possible to 1059 00:50:37,493 --> 00:50:40,733 Speaker 2: be a car driver to make their other plans work. Yep, right, 1060 00:50:41,093 --> 00:50:44,613 Speaker 2: so it's a bit of an unfair war against the citizens. 1061 00:50:44,213 --> 00:50:46,253 Speaker 4: One hundred percent. And when you double the number of 1062 00:50:46,333 --> 00:50:48,853 Speaker 4: infringements from two hundred thousand and a half a million, 1063 00:50:49,133 --> 00:50:52,613 Speaker 4: you've got a question. That's exactly what their policy is. 1064 00:50:52,973 --> 00:50:54,813 Speaker 4: But oh, one hundred and eighty ten eighty is the 1065 00:50:55,013 --> 00:50:58,893 Speaker 4: number to call Neville. You reckon, you've got a strategy 1066 00:50:58,973 --> 00:50:59,732 Speaker 4: to get out of a fine. 1067 00:51:01,293 --> 00:51:04,493 Speaker 16: Yeah, this is for the Wilson's Car Parking. So Wilson's 1068 00:51:04,493 --> 00:51:07,773 Speaker 16: Car Parking is a big Hong Kong based companies. They're 1069 00:51:07,853 --> 00:51:11,093 Speaker 16: huge and most of the car parking buildings in New 1070 00:51:11,133 --> 00:51:13,333 Speaker 16: Zealand and other car parks are managed by them. You 1071 00:51:13,413 --> 00:51:17,933 Speaker 16: guys all know Wilson's correct, yep, duty yeah, yeah, so yeah, 1072 00:51:18,013 --> 00:51:20,813 Speaker 16: So this was debated on the radio a while ago actually, 1073 00:51:20,853 --> 00:51:23,413 Speaker 16: and there was a lawyer that gave the one way 1074 00:51:24,133 --> 00:51:28,373 Speaker 16: to get off it. So listen close. Basically, this is 1075 00:51:28,413 --> 00:51:30,533 Speaker 16: what you do you take a photo of So let's 1076 00:51:30,533 --> 00:51:32,973 Speaker 16: say you're fifteen minutes over. You're paying ten dollars an 1077 00:51:32,973 --> 00:51:37,893 Speaker 16: hour for a car parking building, so that ten fifteen 1078 00:51:37,933 --> 00:51:40,652 Speaker 16: minutes over is two dollars fifty. That they've actually missed 1079 00:51:40,693 --> 00:51:42,413 Speaker 16: out on. So what you do is you take a 1080 00:51:42,453 --> 00:51:45,772 Speaker 16: photo of your car, so you've got photo time proof 1081 00:51:45,933 --> 00:51:50,173 Speaker 16: on your phone. When the eighty five or one hundred 1082 00:51:50,173 --> 00:51:53,693 Speaker 16: and twenty dollars fine arrives, you don't shag around. You 1083 00:51:53,853 --> 00:51:56,693 Speaker 16: don't contact anyone other than by email because it's a 1084 00:51:56,733 --> 00:51:58,493 Speaker 16: waste of time trying to phone them. You won't get 1085 00:51:58,493 --> 00:52:02,253 Speaker 16: anybody anyway, and you dispute it and you offer them 1086 00:52:02,773 --> 00:52:06,373 Speaker 16: ten dollars, So that's being fair and reasonable. You're saying that, well, 1087 00:52:06,533 --> 00:52:10,173 Speaker 16: you've missed out two dollars fifty worth of parking, and 1088 00:52:10,293 --> 00:52:12,493 Speaker 16: here's a photo with the other empty parks and of 1089 00:52:12,693 --> 00:52:17,652 Speaker 16: my cars. You've got all that proof, and you say 1090 00:52:17,733 --> 00:52:19,973 Speaker 16: that this is the crucial bit. You say, otherwise this 1091 00:52:20,093 --> 00:52:22,533 Speaker 16: account is in dispute. So what you're doing is you're 1092 00:52:22,573 --> 00:52:25,213 Speaker 16: forcing them to go to the disputes tribune, and they 1093 00:52:25,253 --> 00:52:27,453 Speaker 16: won't want to bar of it. They'll just simply move 1094 00:52:27,533 --> 00:52:30,653 Speaker 16: on and they will threaten you with bake corp or 1095 00:52:30,693 --> 00:52:32,413 Speaker 16: a sort of those sorts of different things. But the 1096 00:52:32,533 --> 00:52:35,133 Speaker 16: fine's too small, and so what the lawyer that was 1097 00:52:35,173 --> 00:52:38,373 Speaker 16: on the radio set is that it's actually illegal for 1098 00:52:38,493 --> 00:52:40,973 Speaker 16: Wilson's to call them a fine, so they call it 1099 00:52:41,133 --> 00:52:44,293 Speaker 16: something else to get around that. But if you do 1100 00:52:44,413 --> 00:52:47,732 Speaker 16: what I just said yet, they will just simply walk 1101 00:52:47,773 --> 00:52:50,933 Speaker 16: from it because it's not really it's a dodgy way 1102 00:52:51,013 --> 00:52:52,652 Speaker 16: that they're doing it anyway, if it makes sense. 1103 00:52:52,853 --> 00:52:55,732 Speaker 2: Have you tried tried this and did it work? 1104 00:52:55,813 --> 00:52:58,453 Speaker 16: Yeah? But but I yeah, I got by doing that 1105 00:52:58,613 --> 00:53:01,613 Speaker 16: naturally before I heard the lawyer on the rathiaf anyway, 1106 00:53:02,013 --> 00:53:04,013 Speaker 16: So yeah, I'm probably bit like you guys, I thought 1107 00:53:04,093 --> 00:53:04,453 Speaker 16: back of this. 1108 00:53:06,053 --> 00:53:10,533 Speaker 2: Just talk us through this depth again. Sorry level. 1109 00:53:10,653 --> 00:53:13,533 Speaker 16: Yeah, well, I don't know if he necessarily said that, 1110 00:53:13,613 --> 00:53:16,613 Speaker 16: but I've debated it with enough savvy people that they 1111 00:53:16,653 --> 00:53:19,172 Speaker 16: would definitely do this. You take a photo of your car, 1112 00:53:19,293 --> 00:53:21,973 Speaker 16: so you've got you know that the ticket. You take 1113 00:53:21,973 --> 00:53:24,333 Speaker 16: a photo of your car with the ticket in the photo, 1114 00:53:24,333 --> 00:53:26,093 Speaker 16: if that makes sense, so you can see that you're 1115 00:53:26,133 --> 00:53:29,133 Speaker 16: maybe twelve minutes over, so therefore you've got proof that 1116 00:53:29,173 --> 00:53:31,093 Speaker 16: you're back at the car. It's not like it's three 1117 00:53:31,173 --> 00:53:34,533 Speaker 16: airs or something silly. And then you wait for the 1118 00:53:34,613 --> 00:53:37,573 Speaker 16: fine to arrive. Once it does, you don't muck around. 1119 00:53:37,773 --> 00:53:41,613 Speaker 16: You just simply dispute it. But you offer them for 1120 00:53:41,733 --> 00:53:45,453 Speaker 16: what Because I mean Essentially, they're charging you for losses, 1121 00:53:46,013 --> 00:53:48,652 Speaker 16: and so they've lost down in that particular instance two 1122 00:53:48,693 --> 00:53:51,133 Speaker 16: dollars fifty, haven't they, Because it's ten dollars an hour. 1123 00:53:51,693 --> 00:53:55,293 Speaker 16: You're fifteen minutes over, so quarter of ten dollars is 1124 00:53:55,373 --> 00:53:58,893 Speaker 16: two dollars fifty. So you would you would write a nice, sensible, 1125 00:53:59,013 --> 00:54:03,013 Speaker 16: non emotional reply to their ticket in an email or 1126 00:54:03,093 --> 00:54:05,533 Speaker 16: however you would do it, and you would be going, 1127 00:54:05,573 --> 00:54:07,533 Speaker 16: we've missed out in two dollars fifty. As a good 1128 00:54:07,533 --> 00:54:10,253 Speaker 16: will gesture, will offer you ten dollars, which means that 1129 00:54:10,413 --> 00:54:15,733 Speaker 16: you're being recompensed for one hour. The eighty five dollars 1130 00:54:15,853 --> 00:54:17,373 Speaker 16: or one hundred and twenty dollars or whatever it is 1131 00:54:17,453 --> 00:54:20,933 Speaker 16: that there wanting from you is disproportionate to the loss. 1132 00:54:21,653 --> 00:54:23,893 Speaker 4: Makes a lot of sense because it is it's been 1133 00:54:23,973 --> 00:54:26,613 Speaker 4: reasonable on their genuine loss of income because they've got 1134 00:54:26,613 --> 00:54:29,573 Speaker 4: a business they're running. But this idea of an infringement 1135 00:54:29,693 --> 00:54:33,413 Speaker 4: notice which means nothing at one hundred and twenty bucks, 1136 00:54:33,493 --> 00:54:37,133 Speaker 4: that is not reasonable if you're six minutes over, that's right. 1137 00:54:37,213 --> 00:54:39,813 Speaker 16: Yeah, it's a gotcha moment, and they will just simply 1138 00:54:39,893 --> 00:54:43,253 Speaker 16: walk from it. They won't. It would be incredibly unusual 1139 00:54:43,373 --> 00:54:45,692 Speaker 16: for them to meet you in the disputes tribunal because 1140 00:54:45,733 --> 00:54:49,973 Speaker 16: that's essentially what you're saying. So Baycorp or any anyone 1141 00:54:50,373 --> 00:54:52,893 Speaker 16: will not pursue that because you've said this account is 1142 00:54:52,933 --> 00:54:53,533 Speaker 16: in dispute. 1143 00:54:54,013 --> 00:54:55,893 Speaker 2: Wow, Okay, I'm definitely going to try that and neve 1144 00:54:55,893 --> 00:54:56,413 Speaker 2: all next time. 1145 00:54:56,573 --> 00:54:57,413 Speaker 4: That is a great tip. 1146 00:54:57,493 --> 00:54:58,613 Speaker 2: I'll try it and I'll get back to you. 1147 00:54:58,773 --> 00:54:58,973 Speaker 4: Yep. 1148 00:54:59,653 --> 00:55:01,373 Speaker 2: Hey guys. A couple of months ago, we drove into 1149 00:55:01,413 --> 00:55:03,813 Speaker 2: the city first time for four to five years. This 1150 00:55:04,053 --> 00:55:07,133 Speaker 2: is Auckland's CBD. What a mess. Even the GPS was 1151 00:55:07,173 --> 00:55:10,893 Speaker 2: confused getting us there. On God, the GPS really struggles. 1152 00:55:10,933 --> 00:55:13,573 Speaker 2: Google Maps and Apple Maps really struggle with what's happening 1153 00:55:13,613 --> 00:55:16,293 Speaker 2: in the city of Auckland moment. A while ago, we 1154 00:55:16,413 --> 00:55:17,812 Speaker 2: got to take it for one hundred and fifty dollars 1155 00:55:17,813 --> 00:55:21,013 Speaker 2: for driving through a special area which was described in 1156 00:55:21,053 --> 00:55:23,933 Speaker 2: a very long paragraph.

Yeah, Hi, Tyler and Matt. 1190 00:56:56,293 --> 00:56:59,172 Speaker 2: I understand the one second ticket. I feel a five 1191 00:56:59,253 --> 00:57:01,933 Speaker 2: minute drop off and pickup zone must be very close 1192 00:57:02,013 --> 00:57:05,133 Speaker 2: by if everyone stopped there to pick up collectively, it 1193 00:57:05,333 --> 00:57:08,733 Speaker 2: must drive a cafe in customers nuts, say fifty two 1194 00:57:08,813 --> 00:57:12,133 Speaker 2: cars pulling in out fast cause accidents. I would feel 1195 00:57:12,173 --> 00:57:13,933 Speaker 2: like I was trying to enjoy a coffee with a 1196 00:57:14,013 --> 00:57:16,453 Speaker 2: friend in the middle of a racetrack of cars. Pull 1197 00:57:16,533 --> 00:57:19,813 Speaker 2: up doors, open doors, slam close, and the next pulls 1198 00:57:19,853 --> 00:57:24,333 Speaker 2: up walk down the road. Okay, Sorry, that one's just disappeared. 1199 00:57:25,493 --> 00:57:27,333 Speaker 2: Moving it over, so many texts coming in, I'll just 1200 00:57:27,413 --> 00:57:31,093 Speaker 2: get to the end of it. Sorry. I would feel 1201 00:57:31,133 --> 00:57:32,733 Speaker 2: like I was trying to enjoy a coffee with a 1202 00:57:32,773 --> 00:57:34,813 Speaker 2: friend in the middle of a racetrack of cars. Pull 1203 00:57:34,893 --> 00:57:37,533 Speaker 2: up doors, open doors, slam close, and the next pulls up, 1204 00:57:37,893 --> 00:57:41,493 Speaker 2: walk down the road for a pickup. Good for you, Jane, hmm. 1205 00:57:41,973 --> 00:57:44,613 Speaker 4: I mean, arguably that's better for the cafe if you've 1206 00:57:44,693 --> 00:57:47,493 Speaker 4: just got rolling cars actually doing what you should be doing. 1207 00:57:47,613 --> 00:57:50,053 Speaker 4: Five minute pack up or less, get out there, get 1208 00:57:50,093 --> 00:57:52,133 Speaker 4: into the cafe and then roll into the next one. 1209 00:57:52,213 --> 00:57:55,413 Speaker 2: Surely there's more, but those fifteen minute ones aren't in 1210 00:57:55,453 --> 00:57:58,093 Speaker 2: front of cafes. They're in front of dairies. Yeah, so 1211 00:57:58,173 --> 00:58:00,853 Speaker 2: they put the really short ones in front of places 1212 00:58:00,893 --> 00:58:03,013 Speaker 2: where you're in and out to keep people rolling through 1213 00:58:03,013 --> 00:58:05,613 Speaker 2: because you know, I totally understand that kind of enforcement, 1214 00:58:05,693 --> 00:58:09,213 Speaker 2: because a dairy doesn't want three people there all day, 1215 00:58:09,773 --> 00:58:13,253 Speaker 2: you know, and that doesn't help anyone. You want people 1216 00:58:13,373 --> 00:58:15,453 Speaker 2: there and on there and on there and on buying 1217 00:58:15,493 --> 00:58:17,853 Speaker 2: and going and getting their rubbish and getting out exactly. 1218 00:58:17,973 --> 00:58:18,173 Speaker 11: Yeah. 1219 00:58:18,213 --> 00:58:19,773 Speaker 4: But a bang butter boom, And if I was caught 1220 00:58:19,813 --> 00:58:21,573 Speaker 4: out using it for more than five minutes, I'd take 1221 00:58:21,613 --> 00:58:23,013 Speaker 4: the hat as long as it was a human. 1222 00:58:23,053 --> 00:58:26,053 Speaker 2: That God, I'm not against that. I'm not against that. 1223 00:58:26,253 --> 00:58:28,653 Speaker 4: Yeah, Gary, you've got an unusual ticket. 1224 00:58:29,813 --> 00:58:34,093 Speaker 18: Yes, I'm up way up in the king Country and 1225 00:58:34,213 --> 00:58:38,533 Speaker 18: I've got a use and it's red and next thing, 1226 00:58:38,573 --> 00:58:41,013 Speaker 18: I got a ticket and you know where it come 1227 00:58:41,093 --> 00:58:45,413 Speaker 18: from Wellington, right, Well, I'm sorry to say, I haven't 1228 00:58:45,493 --> 00:58:49,253 Speaker 18: been down to Wellington for thirty five years. So what 1229 00:58:49,453 --> 00:58:51,973 Speaker 18: I did was I went under the post office and 1230 00:58:52,133 --> 00:58:55,013 Speaker 18: I said, this is not mine. And they said, you've 1231 00:58:55,013 --> 00:58:57,893 Speaker 18: got your number plates blah blah blah. I said, correct, 1232 00:58:58,693 --> 00:59:03,373 Speaker 18: it's your vehicle read. I said correct. And you know 1233 00:59:03,533 --> 00:59:06,413 Speaker 18: what it was. I went into the post office and 1234 00:59:06,973 --> 00:59:09,973 Speaker 18: a nice thick it is not mine. I haven't been 1235 00:59:10,053 --> 00:59:16,373 Speaker 18: down there for thirty five years. So they found out 1236 00:59:16,573 --> 00:59:20,413 Speaker 18: it was a vehicle that was red now mine the 1237 00:59:20,533 --> 00:59:25,933 Speaker 18: youth with number plate blah blah blah. And this car 1238 00:59:26,133 --> 00:59:28,653 Speaker 18: had the same number plate as what my track did. 1239 00:59:30,453 --> 00:59:32,493 Speaker 4: How does that work going you don't have the same 1240 00:59:32,533 --> 00:59:35,653 Speaker 4: number plate, it might be a similar looking vehicle, but 1241 00:59:37,133 --> 00:59:37,573 Speaker 4: it wasn't. 1242 00:59:37,613 --> 00:59:40,133 Speaker 2: It was a station wagon and they had the same 1243 00:59:40,253 --> 00:59:42,293 Speaker 2: number plate. Well that's a huge issue and you need 1244 00:59:42,333 --> 00:59:43,973 Speaker 2: to take that right to the top because if someone's 1245 00:59:44,013 --> 00:59:46,053 Speaker 2: impersonating your number plate, that's a serious crime. 1246 00:59:46,413 --> 00:59:46,933 Speaker 3: That's right. 1247 00:59:47,253 --> 00:59:48,773 Speaker 14: And my vehicle is a. 1248 00:59:50,453 --> 00:59:54,533 Speaker 11: What are we two man's to you lovely? 1249 00:59:54,733 --> 00:59:58,293 Speaker 18: And I said, hey, this is not mine, but this 1250 00:59:58,573 --> 01:00:01,333 Speaker 18: vehicle had the same number plate as what my track did. 1251 01:00:02,373 --> 01:00:04,533 Speaker 18: And I hadn't been off my farm for a week 1252 01:00:04,653 --> 01:00:07,093 Speaker 18: or so or whatever. And by the way, I hadn't 1253 01:00:07,133 --> 01:00:10,573 Speaker 18: been down to whelms And for thirty four years. So 1254 01:00:11,293 --> 01:00:14,933 Speaker 18: I said, you'd go and sort this out, because someone's 1255 01:00:14,933 --> 01:00:18,133 Speaker 18: got the number plate of my track. 1256 01:00:18,893 --> 01:00:22,493 Speaker 9: You that's got the number. 1257 01:00:22,333 --> 01:00:25,173 Speaker 18: Plate which them bought it brand you know, it's pretty 1258 01:00:25,213 --> 01:00:31,493 Speaker 18: near brand new, and I never will sort this out. 1259 01:00:31,533 --> 01:00:32,333 Speaker 18: Don't worry about it. 1260 01:00:32,493 --> 01:00:36,853 Speaker 4: So, yeah, that's concerning Gary, that is very concerned. I'm 1261 01:00:36,853 --> 01:00:38,653 Speaker 4: sure they would have sorted that one out. Yeah, I 1262 01:00:38,693 --> 01:00:40,773 Speaker 4: mean it's very left field. There's got really nothing to 1263 01:00:40,853 --> 01:00:43,173 Speaker 4: do with at and the crazy old I remember when. 1264 01:00:43,053 --> 01:00:45,733 Speaker 2: I was a kid, there was a there was a 1265 01:00:45,773 --> 01:00:49,173 Speaker 2: TV show called Chips and someone and someone invented a 1266 01:00:49,293 --> 01:00:53,373 Speaker 2: number plate that spun round. It had four different number plates, 1267 01:00:53,413 --> 01:00:55,373 Speaker 2: and they could commit a crime and they press a 1268 01:00:55,413 --> 01:00:57,813 Speaker 2: button and it would it would flip round in another 1269 01:00:57,893 --> 01:01:01,693 Speaker 2: number plate. But Punch and John solved the mystery because 1270 01:01:01,693 --> 01:01:03,933 Speaker 2: they got flipped around to someone else's number plate that 1271 01:01:03,933 --> 01:01:05,773 Speaker 2: they investigated and they could tell it was the wrong 1272 01:01:05,893 --> 01:01:07,173 Speaker 2: car and they got them. 1273 01:01:07,213 --> 01:01:09,093 Speaker 4: They got the man in the end, So this could 1274 01:01:09,093 --> 01:01:11,013 Speaker 4: be happening to Gary.

I was thinking, can 1650 01:19:56,612 --> 01:19:59,652 Speaker 2: we bring back the little areas, the small rooms, you know, 1651 01:20:00,452 --> 01:20:02,492 Speaker 2: the more zones the better. What's wrong with what's wrong 1652 01:20:02,532 --> 01:20:04,612 Speaker 2: with living in a little bit of a maze? What's 1653 01:20:04,652 --> 01:20:07,333 Speaker 2: wrong with the hobbit hole, the little holes. Why do 1654 01:20:07,412 --> 01:20:08,892 Speaker 2: we all need to live in foo food courts? 1655 01:20:09,933 --> 01:20:10,093 Speaker 11: You know? 1656 01:20:10,173 --> 01:20:10,333 Speaker 18: Why? 1657 01:20:10,452 --> 01:20:13,052 Speaker 2: Is that just the way everyone goes Now? I was thinking, 1658 01:20:13,093 --> 01:20:15,133 Speaker 2: maybe I want a house with lots of little nooks 1659 01:20:15,173 --> 01:20:19,173 Speaker 2: and crannies, a little quirky, little weird and efficient bits. 1660 01:20:19,732 --> 01:20:21,933 Speaker 4: It's such a good question. I'm glad your questioning of this, 1661 01:20:22,133 --> 01:20:25,372 Speaker 4: because I've never thought about I mean, it's just a key. 1662 01:20:25,412 --> 01:20:27,652 Speaker 4: We think that you love the open plant that these 1663 01:20:27,812 --> 01:20:30,213 Speaker 4: days apparently you should have the lounge in the kitchen 1664 01:20:30,412 --> 01:20:33,013 Speaker 4: opened up, give a bit of space, give it some 1665 01:20:33,093 --> 01:20:36,133 Speaker 4: breathing room. And I've always just accepted it that that's 1666 01:20:36,173 --> 01:20:38,412 Speaker 4: the right thing to do for some reason. But you're 1667 01:20:38,492 --> 01:20:41,012 Speaker 4: so right. What happened to even a little private little 1668 01:20:41,093 --> 01:20:42,093 Speaker 4: room that you could jump into? 1669 01:20:42,253 --> 01:20:44,452 Speaker 2: We get these fashions and then there's no way to 1670 01:20:44,532 --> 01:20:46,013 Speaker 2: do it, And then some looking at my house going 1671 01:20:46,093 --> 01:20:47,933 Speaker 2: have I really renovated it if I haven't turned it 1672 01:20:48,013 --> 01:20:51,293 Speaker 2: into a massive cabinous area where the lounge in the 1673 01:20:52,133 --> 01:20:55,253 Speaker 2: dining room in the kitchen all merge into one without 1674 01:20:55,293 --> 01:20:59,053 Speaker 2: any weird rooms off the side. But having zones in 1675 01:20:59,133 --> 01:21:00,973 Speaker 2: your house house is quite of cool. If you've got 1676 01:21:01,013 --> 01:21:02,732 Speaker 2: like one of your kids sleeping in a room that's 1677 01:21:02,772 --> 01:21:06,772 Speaker 2: over one by a bathroom that's near a laun tree 1678 01:21:06,853 --> 01:21:09,333 Speaker 2: that's behind a wall, and you could clear that all out, 1679 01:21:09,412 --> 01:21:11,812 Speaker 2: but then your kids kind of just their room just 1680 01:21:11,893 --> 01:21:13,372 Speaker 2: opens up onto the main area. 1681 01:21:13,492 --> 01:21:15,692 Speaker 4: There's nowhere to escape. Yeah, it's all open. 1682 01:21:15,933 --> 01:21:17,812 Speaker 2: Yeah. This text has said this is about women not 1683 01:21:17,893 --> 01:21:20,652 Speaker 2: being locked away in the kitchen cooking. It's about involving 1684 01:21:20,732 --> 01:21:24,492 Speaker 2: them in the family, not servants hidden away. So I 1685 01:21:24,572 --> 01:21:27,692 Speaker 2: guess at one point the kitchens were small and in 1686 01:21:27,772 --> 01:21:29,892 Speaker 2: a different part of the house and it wasn't very 1687 01:21:29,933 --> 01:21:32,572 Speaker 2: social when you were cooking, right, Yeah, that was part 1688 01:21:32,612 --> 01:21:34,492 Speaker 2: of the reason that people opened it all up. And 1689 01:21:34,572 --> 01:21:38,133 Speaker 2: I know the French think it's disgusting cooking in an 1690 01:21:38,213 --> 01:21:41,492 Speaker 2: open area like we do here. They would prefer you 1691 01:21:41,532 --> 01:21:44,253 Speaker 2: had an open toilet and someone just sat in the 1692 01:21:44,333 --> 01:21:47,372 Speaker 2: lounge on the toilet then cooking there. It's just a 1693 01:21:47,412 --> 01:21:50,133 Speaker 2: different way they look at it. And I can kind 1694 01:21:50,173 --> 01:21:52,293 Speaker 2: of get that that it's fun for the cooking and 1695 01:21:52,492 --> 01:21:55,412 Speaker 2: entertaining to be all in the same place. But this 1696 01:21:55,612 --> 01:22:01,852 Speaker 2: person says, I've never liked open plan living. It's terrible 1697 01:22:01,893 --> 01:22:03,372 Speaker 2: if you're trying to watch a show and all you 1698 01:22:03,452 --> 01:22:06,133 Speaker 2: hear is pots and pans banging around. Just have a 1699 01:22:06,173 --> 01:22:08,452 Speaker 2: bigger kitchen with a dining room attached, and some are 1700 01:22:08,492 --> 01:22:10,892 Speaker 2: stills in it for when you want company while cooking, 1701 01:22:10,933 --> 01:22:12,572 Speaker 2: and add a small TV on the kitchen wall. 1702 01:22:12,772 --> 01:22:15,732 Speaker 4: Exactly. I mean, we had an open planned situation down 1703 01:22:15,772 --> 01:22:17,612 Speaker 4: in christ Jute, and I just accepted it for what 1704 01:22:17,732 --> 01:22:19,532 Speaker 4: it was. But I got quite annoyed if I was 1705 01:22:19,572 --> 01:22:21,852 Speaker 4: doing the cooking and there was all this ruckus going 1706 01:22:21,893 --> 01:22:23,333 Speaker 4: on in the living room. But now you've seen the 1707 01:22:23,372 --> 01:22:26,372 Speaker 4: new place we've just moved into. There's a separate lounge. Ah, 1708 01:22:26,612 --> 01:22:27,412 Speaker 4: it's a dream. 1709 01:22:27,652 --> 01:22:30,412 Speaker 2: Then you're running knocks and crannies up the wazoo with 1710 01:22:30,452 --> 01:22:32,412 Speaker 2: funny little rooms everywhere, and you love it. 1711 01:22:32,572 --> 01:22:34,093 Speaker 4: I'm finding a new cubby hole every day. 1712 01:22:34,173 --> 01:22:37,692 Speaker 2: It's so good. Andrea says it's all about light, and 1713 01:22:37,772 --> 01:22:40,372 Speaker 2: she also makes the point about woman wanting to be 1714 01:22:40,452 --> 01:22:42,412 Speaker 2: part of the environment. I would push back on that 1715 01:22:42,492 --> 01:22:46,893 Speaker 2: a little bit, Andrea, because I every single dude I 1716 01:22:47,013 --> 01:22:47,932 Speaker 2: know does a lot of cooking. 1717 01:22:48,053 --> 01:22:48,213 Speaker 15: Yep. 1718 01:22:48,692 --> 01:22:51,173 Speaker 2: I don't think I don't know a single friend of 1719 01:22:51,253 --> 01:22:57,012 Speaker 2: mine who's running a marital situation where they're just locking 1720 01:22:57,093 --> 01:22:58,693 Speaker 2: their partner up cooking. 1721 01:22:58,492 --> 01:23:01,452 Speaker 4: For them Yeah, times have change drastically.

And my point 1881 01:30:10,452 --> 01:30:13,133 Speaker 11: is that, like if you're a couple or something like that, 1882 01:30:13,333 --> 01:30:15,452 Speaker 11: and you're in a marriage, the whole house is the 1883 01:30:15,492 --> 01:30:18,532 Speaker 11: domain of the woman or the white the kitchen, the 1884 01:30:18,692 --> 01:30:22,772 Speaker 11: dining room, the lounge, everything, and like all the art work, 1885 01:30:22,812 --> 01:30:25,973 Speaker 11: the whole nine yards, you know, and so at some 1886 01:30:26,133 --> 01:30:28,652 Speaker 11: stage you need some peace and clients. So the other 1887 01:30:28,692 --> 01:30:30,572 Speaker 11: thing is, I'm a builder, as well. And if you 1888 01:30:30,612 --> 01:30:33,293 Speaker 11: see to start knocking out walls, what's you know load bearing? 1889 01:30:33,412 --> 01:30:36,492 Speaker 11: What it starts to compound with west anything can be done. 1890 01:30:36,572 --> 01:30:38,572 Speaker 11: It's a massive expense, so sometimes you've got to take 1891 01:30:38,612 --> 01:30:39,812 Speaker 11: a practical approach as well. 1892 01:30:40,293 --> 01:30:42,173 Speaker 2: Mark, can you explain to me as a builder, why 1893 01:30:42,293 --> 01:30:44,293 Speaker 2: when you go to do a renovation of a house, 1894 01:30:44,372 --> 01:30:46,892 Speaker 2: every part of it seems so much more expensive than, 1895 01:30:47,213 --> 01:30:49,612 Speaker 2: proportionately speaking, building a whole new house. 1896 01:30:50,772 --> 01:30:53,412 Speaker 11: Absolutely one hundred percent, because I'm just doing one of 1897 01:30:53,452 --> 01:30:56,092 Speaker 11: the line stuck in traffic in between jobs at the moment. 1898 01:30:56,213 --> 01:30:59,612 Speaker 11: But it's because you've sort of got to make good 1899 01:30:59,652 --> 01:31:02,372 Speaker 11: and nothing's plum level or square, so you're fitting joinery 1900 01:31:02,372 --> 01:31:05,093 Speaker 11: into something. Yeah, right, I start one job I just. 1901 01:31:05,452 --> 01:31:07,012 Speaker 3: Fit at the door the other day is ever. 1902 01:31:06,973 --> 01:31:10,173 Speaker 11: So slightly out of plumb. It's adjacent to another door, 1903 01:31:10,293 --> 01:31:14,492 Speaker 11: so the exact height to match the architravees, so they've 1904 01:31:14,532 --> 01:31:16,452 Speaker 11: got to be scribed down so they don't look skinny 1905 01:31:16,452 --> 01:31:19,173 Speaker 11: at the top and wider. It's so teaching, it's a 1906 01:31:19,213 --> 01:31:21,893 Speaker 11: different art form. So yeah, it's that's why it's so 1907 01:31:22,053 --> 01:31:25,412 Speaker 11: much harder doing renovations. And the other thing as well, 1908 01:31:25,412 --> 01:31:28,852 Speaker 11: they usually charge up jobs simply because you can't really 1909 01:31:28,933 --> 01:31:31,132 Speaker 11: quote because you don't know what really you're going to find. 1910 01:31:32,293 --> 01:31:34,173 Speaker 2: As soon as as soon as you open up, you 1911 01:31:34,213 --> 01:31:37,612 Speaker 2: suddenly find out the foundations are blowing, that there's there's 1912 01:31:38,053 --> 01:31:41,212 Speaker 2: there's something horrific living in the walls, you know, squirrels, 1913 01:31:41,293 --> 01:31:42,333 Speaker 2: possums living in the walls. 1914 01:31:42,492 --> 01:31:44,253 Speaker 4: Sometimes out of side, out of mind is better. 1915 01:31:45,812 --> 01:31:48,692 Speaker 11: Yeah, absolutely, sometimes it is. But then you know you've 1916 01:31:48,732 --> 01:31:50,532 Speaker 11: sort of got to fix things on the fly because 1917 01:31:50,532 --> 01:31:52,333 Speaker 11: there's no point and we're doing half a job with 1918 01:31:52,412 --> 01:31:54,412 Speaker 11: those things sometimes. And that's why it does sort of 1919 01:31:54,452 --> 01:31:56,253 Speaker 11: start to stack up because you start one job and 1920 01:31:56,333 --> 01:31:58,852 Speaker 11: end up doing it, doesn't just to repeat the most 1921 01:31:58,893 --> 01:32:01,133 Speaker 11: basic of jobs that you're doing. 1922 01:32:01,333 --> 01:32:03,492 Speaker 2: So yeah, yeah, thank you for your call. 1923 01:32:03,572 --> 01:32:03,732 Speaker 3: Mark. 1924 01:32:03,772 --> 01:32:07,053 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's interesting that that, you know, you know Mark 1925 01:32:07,133 --> 01:32:10,253 Speaker 2: saying it turns all into one side of the relationships 1926 01:32:10,372 --> 01:32:12,932 Speaker 2: domain or the other.

So he would be in 2039 01:37:11,053 --> 01:37:15,692 Speaker 25: the living room shouting and whatever at the screen, and 2040 01:37:15,812 --> 01:37:18,812 Speaker 25: I would be in the kitchen and cooking, baking. I 2041 01:37:18,933 --> 01:37:22,253 Speaker 25: do a lot of cooking and baking. And we were 2042 01:37:22,293 --> 01:37:28,572 Speaker 25: retired and moved down to Papamoa and we wondered, you know, 2043 01:37:28,772 --> 01:37:31,093 Speaker 25: how it was going to work out, Because of course 2044 01:37:31,213 --> 01:37:36,093 Speaker 25: open plan living is the thing now, and because we're 2045 01:37:36,213 --> 01:37:39,452 Speaker 25: used to being separate, we decided to go for a 2046 01:37:39,572 --> 01:37:45,772 Speaker 25: house that has pocket doors, which you get the best 2047 01:37:45,853 --> 01:37:49,532 Speaker 25: of both worlds from. So when the doors are pulled together, 2048 01:37:50,053 --> 01:37:52,412 Speaker 25: he's got his longe area and I've got my lovely 2049 01:37:52,492 --> 01:37:56,253 Speaker 25: big kitchen and when we've got the family round, we 2050 01:37:56,452 --> 01:37:58,532 Speaker 25: open them up and there's this great big space. 2051 01:37:59,133 --> 01:38:02,333 Speaker 2: Are those Are those blast doors sound proof enough to 2052 01:38:02,452 --> 01:38:06,013 Speaker 2: keep the you know, the enthusiastic sports fandom out. 2053 01:38:07,133 --> 01:38:09,692 Speaker 25: Absolutely, they're brilliant. 2054 01:38:10,372 --> 01:38:10,572 Speaker 15: Yeah. 2055 01:38:10,933 --> 01:38:17,173 Speaker 25: I think you have the advantages of not having physical 2056 01:38:17,293 --> 01:38:20,692 Speaker 25: doors to push, you know, like having handles to push 2057 01:38:20,772 --> 01:38:23,932 Speaker 25: and open and because that takes up space, but then 2058 01:38:24,293 --> 01:38:28,093 Speaker 25: you have almost like a double door space there, so 2059 01:38:28,253 --> 01:38:30,532 Speaker 25: it makes the kitchen and the lounge seem as if 2060 01:38:30,572 --> 01:38:33,532 Speaker 25: it's all in one, but obviously when they're pulled together, 2061 01:38:33,652 --> 01:38:35,412 Speaker 25: they're closed. It's a huge area. 2062 01:38:36,572 --> 01:38:37,772 Speaker 2: Is it a big key we thing? 2063 01:38:38,452 --> 01:38:41,013 Speaker 4: Petunity you think when it comes to open plan?

We've just come back from the 2070 01:38:55,133 --> 01:38:58,533 Speaker 25: UK actually, and my sister lives in an old Victorian 2071 01:38:58,692 --> 01:39:01,532 Speaker 25: house and they've done the house up, but they have 2072 01:39:02,133 --> 01:39:06,452 Speaker 25: a kitchen, a living room and a dining room. It's 2073 01:39:06,492 --> 01:39:10,333 Speaker 25: quite separate and very happy. I mean, my husband and 2074 01:39:10,452 --> 01:39:15,692 Speaker 25: I a musicians as well, and he plays a trumpet 2075 01:39:16,612 --> 01:39:20,932 Speaker 25: and I played the piano, and so all our married 2076 01:39:20,973 --> 01:39:23,772 Speaker 25: life we've had to have space where we can have 2077 01:39:24,013 --> 01:39:28,253 Speaker 25: instruments in our house and practice, and so it's been 2078 01:39:28,333 --> 01:39:33,013 Speaker 25: really important that we have separate spaces. But where we 2079 01:39:33,173 --> 01:39:35,532 Speaker 25: are now it's just work perfectly for us. And we 2080 01:39:35,973 --> 01:39:39,412 Speaker 25: both recently retired, so we spend a lot of time 2081 01:39:39,492 --> 01:39:42,053 Speaker 25: together for a lot of time separate at the same time. 2082 01:39:42,213 --> 01:39:42,852 Speaker 25: It's brilliant. 2083 01:39:43,013 --> 01:39:47,412 Speaker 2: Well, you need that, you know, you need you need 2084 01:39:47,452 --> 01:39:49,293 Speaker 2: your calm down space.

I was just looking at 2088 01:39:55,772 --> 01:39:58,293 Speaker 2: a thing about England and that there's this article he 2089 01:39:58,412 --> 01:40:01,612 Speaker 2: is saying about in England and people are moving away, 2090 01:40:02,093 --> 01:40:04,932 Speaker 2: saying the walls are coming back, people are moving away 2091 01:40:05,013 --> 01:40:08,093 Speaker 2: from the open play loving and people are moving back 2092 01:40:08,133 --> 01:40:11,173 Speaker 2: to more nooks and crannies and such. I mean, it's 2093 01:40:11,173 --> 01:40:15,412 Speaker 2: difficult over there, I mentioned in terms of the heating 2094 01:40:15,492 --> 01:40:19,652 Speaker 2: and such. Welcome. Oh Bruce, Yeah, you're timely, open hand, 2095 01:40:19,893 --> 01:40:21,333 Speaker 2: open plan living and heating. 2096 01:40:23,013 --> 01:40:27,053 Speaker 14: Yes, so I'm a refrigeration engineer by trade with some 2097 01:40:27,253 --> 01:40:31,093 Speaker 14: building experience, and they have lived in a large Californian 2098 01:40:31,772 --> 01:40:38,253 Speaker 14: style house, more recently a split level house and now 2099 01:40:38,532 --> 01:40:42,532 Speaker 14: an older weather board house with small rooms. And something 2100 01:40:42,612 --> 01:40:45,452 Speaker 14: that you need to consider depending on where you live 2101 01:40:45,532 --> 01:40:50,013 Speaker 14: in my opinion, is the heating system you wish to 2102 01:40:50,372 --> 01:40:53,572 Speaker 14: maintain a comfortable house after you've just spent you know, 2103 01:40:54,253 --> 01:40:56,412 Speaker 14: fifty two one hundred grand on your operations. 2104 01:40:57,412 --> 01:41:00,052 Speaker 2: Yes, so if you if you open up a house 2105 01:41:00,133 --> 01:41:02,572 Speaker 2: and it's a modern situation and you've got all the 2106 01:41:02,612 --> 01:41:06,412 Speaker 2: double glazed window windows and stuff, you know, a modern 2107 01:41:06,452 --> 01:41:09,732 Speaker 2: house can be large areas be heated and hold the 2108 01:41:09,772 --> 01:41:11,372 Speaker 2: heat pretty well. Now though, can't they bruce? 2109 01:41:13,372 --> 01:41:16,333 Speaker 14: They can? But it's about heat transfer. 2110 01:41:16,812 --> 01:41:16,973 Speaker 11: You know. 2111 01:41:17,173 --> 01:41:21,013 Speaker 14: Heat pumps are a popular form of heating, but a 2112 01:41:21,293 --> 01:41:26,372 Speaker 14: struggle to get you know, the space above the door jam. 2113 01:41:26,853 --> 01:41:30,333 Speaker 14: You know there's two foot of space there where heat 2114 01:41:30,412 --> 01:41:37,412 Speaker 14: can't move between room between rooms and heat heat rises. 2115 01:41:37,532 --> 01:41:42,173 Speaker 14: So unless you have a heat transfer type system like 2116 01:41:42,492 --> 01:41:46,772 Speaker 14: was popular when we all had love fires, you have 2117 01:41:46,973 --> 01:41:51,012 Speaker 14: to put in you know, multiple heat pumps or adducted system. 2118 01:41:51,572 --> 01:41:56,372 Speaker 14: So a high wall low wall air conditioning system you 2119 01:41:56,532 --> 01:42:00,572 Speaker 14: can get you know, for probably under five thousand dollars, 2120 01:42:00,652 --> 01:42:03,772 Speaker 14: but if you go to adducted system you're talking you know, 2121 01:42:03,973 --> 01:42:08,932 Speaker 14: ten thousand dollars plus. So it's depending on where you live. 2122 01:42:09,013 --> 01:42:12,452 Speaker 14: Of course I live in christ Church. You need to 2123 01:42:12,572 --> 01:42:15,733 Speaker 14: consider your heating system and what's going to be economical 2124 01:42:15,812 --> 01:42:19,253 Speaker 14: for your pocket. Do you have excess to fireworld, are 2125 01:42:19,293 --> 01:42:21,452 Speaker 14: you looking at a heat pump? And how do you 2126 01:42:21,572 --> 01:42:23,772 Speaker 14: want to what sort of heat do you want in 2127 01:42:23,812 --> 01:42:25,492 Speaker 14: your bedrooms? Any or none? 2128 01:42:25,893 --> 01:42:28,812 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a great point because our place down in 2129 01:42:28,893 --> 01:42:32,093 Speaker 4: christ Church open playing kitchen and lounge, and during the 2130 01:42:32,133 --> 01:42:34,333 Speaker 4: course of this conversation, I've decided I hate it and 2131 01:42:34,372 --> 01:42:36,213 Speaker 4: the wall needs to go back up. But it's a 2132 01:42:36,253 --> 01:42:38,612 Speaker 4: palette fire that has to be in that area because 2133 01:42:38,652 --> 01:42:41,372 Speaker 4: that's the only thing that heats it up properly. Is 2134 01:42:41,532 --> 01:42:43,173 Speaker 4: that we don't actually have a heat pump in there. 2135 01:42:43,173 --> 01:42:45,532 Speaker 4: It's just the palette fire. So then when it comes 2136 01:42:45,692 --> 01:42:48,732 Speaker 4: to those warm Canterbury summers, we kind of bug it. 2137 01:42:48,853 --> 01:42:52,013 Speaker 4: There's nothing to cool it down, so it's almost you know, 2138 01:42:52,173 --> 01:42:56,452 Speaker 4: it's become too complicated to sort out that open plant 2139 01:42:56,492 --> 01:42:57,973 Speaker 4: part of the house. With a back part of the 2140 01:42:58,013 --> 01:43:00,013 Speaker 4: house easy as just a heat pump sorts it out. 2141 01:43:01,412 --> 01:43:06,253 Speaker 14: Yeah. Yeah, just thrown into the conversation because it's something 2142 01:43:06,333 --> 01:43:11,133 Speaker 14: that's often overlooked and ill stick to burners a last 2143 01:43:11,213 --> 01:43:16,572 Speaker 14: minute decision and as I say as a refrigeration engineer, 2144 01:43:17,692 --> 01:43:21,412 Speaker 14: they need more open areas to function. 2145 01:43:21,612 --> 01:43:25,492 Speaker 4: Well, yeah, Bruce, thank you very much for your expertise. 2146 01:43:25,772 --> 01:43:28,893 Speaker 2: This is interesting hugely. It depends on who's living in 2147 01:43:28,973 --> 01:43:30,812 Speaker 2: the house. You only have to look at the reversal 2148 01:43:30,893 --> 01:43:33,892 Speaker 2: of this government's open planned classroom. Mostly it didn't work 2149 01:43:33,933 --> 01:43:37,812 Speaker 2: similar to their homes perhaps regards Chris, Yeah, I mean 2150 01:43:37,853 --> 01:43:40,492 Speaker 2: that's that's that's a good point. Is it more stressful 2151 01:43:40,532 --> 01:43:42,253 Speaker 2: when everyone's in the same area and as a result, 2152 01:43:42,333 --> 01:43:45,572 Speaker 2: your teenager teenage kid just stays in their room, as 2153 01:43:45,612 --> 01:43:47,293 Speaker 2: opposed to if they could go into the lounge and 2154 01:43:47,372 --> 01:43:49,372 Speaker 2: the door was shut and everyone else was hanging out 2155 01:43:49,372 --> 01:43:50,732 Speaker 2: in the kitchen, you could come and see them for 2156 01:43:50,772 --> 01:43:53,892 Speaker 2: a bit. It is it really that great for everyone 2157 01:43:53,973 --> 01:43:57,293 Speaker 2: to always be in this you know, the whole wide open. 2158 01:43:57,372 --> 01:43:59,732 Speaker 2: If you don't, if you only have one lounge and 2159 01:43:59,973 --> 01:44:02,333 Speaker 2: all the kitchen, dining room, lounge are in one place, 2160 01:44:02,772 --> 01:44:06,012 Speaker 2: isn't that kind of like open planned classrooms where everyone's 2161 01:44:06,053 --> 01:44:07,053 Speaker 2: just stressed out all the time. 2162 01:44:07,053 --> 01:44:09,932 Speaker 4: It's just chaos. You're right, there's better for family dynamics 2163 01:44:10,013 --> 01:44:12,492 Speaker 4: to not have the open plan that way, if the 2164 01:44:12,532 --> 01:44:14,372 Speaker 4: teenagers want to come in and just have their own 2165 01:44:14,412 --> 01:44:16,213 Speaker 4: space in the lounge, at least it's not their room. 2166 01:44:16,452 --> 01:44:17,212 Speaker 4: It's a privacy. 2167 01:44:17,333 --> 01:44:19,933 Speaker 2: There's some tiny little booth down the end of the 2168 01:44:20,293 --> 01:44:23,253 Speaker 2: hallway that's sort of with a half sized door that 2169 01:44:23,333 --> 01:44:24,572 Speaker 2: they consider in by themselves. 2170 01:44:24,893 --> 01:44:27,012 Speaker 4: Oh, one hundred and eighty ten eighty is the number 2171 01:44:27,013 --> 01:44:29,012 Speaker 4: to call if you've gone against the grain of open 2172 01:44:29,053 --> 01:44:31,053 Speaker 4: plan Love to hear from you.

Yeah, but I think the fifties 2299 01:49:59,492 --> 01:50:02,452 Speaker 2: kitchen is maybe just a lutable, too cramp for people 2300 01:50:02,812 --> 01:50:03,732 Speaker 2: in twenty twenty five. 2301 01:50:03,933 --> 01:50:06,093 Speaker 4: They were pretty small, Yeah, couldn't do much in those 2302 01:50:06,133 --> 01:50:10,293 Speaker 4: little fifties kitchens.

It is nine minutes to four. 2309 01:50:29,173 --> 01:50:31,492 Speaker 4: So have we lost our privacy in the name of 2310 01:50:31,652 --> 01:50:34,013 Speaker 4: open plan living? I eight hundred eighty ten Eightyes, at 2311 01:50:34,093 --> 01:50:35,492 Speaker 4: number to call the sesss. 2312 01:50:35,692 --> 01:50:37,772 Speaker 2: Remember the English have their laundry in the kitchen, so 2313 01:50:37,853 --> 01:50:40,972 Speaker 2: while cooking you can enjoy watching your skiddies getting clean. 2314 01:50:41,612 --> 01:50:44,133 Speaker 2: That's perfect this from Dave. I've seen that a lot 2315 01:50:44,253 --> 01:50:46,652 Speaker 2: in the UK. Is that just because the houses of 2316 01:50:47,013 --> 01:50:49,412 Speaker 2: flats have lived in over there have been so small. 2317 01:50:49,853 --> 01:50:52,012 Speaker 2: But that is a thing that you just don't see 2318 01:50:52,013 --> 01:50:54,173 Speaker 2: in New Zealand. Someone having the washer and dryer in 2319 01:50:54,253 --> 01:50:56,812 Speaker 2: the kitchen area and thank God for that. Well that 2320 01:50:57,053 --> 01:50:59,852 Speaker 2: that makes kind of sense to me. Why because that's 2321 01:50:59,933 --> 01:51:01,492 Speaker 2: kind of the stuff where you're doing all that sort 2322 01:51:01,492 --> 01:51:03,893 Speaker 2: of domestic stuff and want to do it all in 2323 01:51:03,933 --> 01:51:04,452 Speaker 2: the one place. 2324 01:51:04,532 --> 01:51:06,772 Speaker 4: But then if you got the dryer blasting, why you're 2325 01:51:06,812 --> 01:51:09,053 Speaker 4: doing the court on blur? I mean there's a lot 2326 01:51:09,053 --> 01:51:10,092 Speaker 4: of humidity in the kitchen. 2327 01:51:10,572 --> 01:51:13,612 Speaker 2: The court on blur. Do you make your own court 2328 01:51:13,652 --> 01:51:15,612 Speaker 2: on blues? Or is the set of a McCain's packet. 2329 01:51:15,732 --> 01:51:18,053 Speaker 4: Yeah, well that's my whipping up the court on blur. 2330 01:51:18,173 --> 01:51:20,412 Speaker 2: Blase sirs. She loves it. I love a court on 2331 01:51:20,452 --> 01:51:22,612 Speaker 2: blur to be honest. It is lovely. Malcolm, welcome with 2332 01:51:22,692 --> 01:51:22,972 Speaker 2: the show. 2333 01:51:23,772 --> 01:51:24,293 Speaker 23: How are you going to go? 2334 01:51:24,333 --> 01:51:24,972 Speaker 2: It's very good. 2335 01:51:25,692 --> 01:51:28,772 Speaker 26: Yeah, I've just done a we've got a lifestyle block 2336 01:51:28,812 --> 01:51:31,093 Speaker 26: property but it says just a house. But I just 2337 01:51:31,173 --> 01:51:34,612 Speaker 26: recently took out the wall between the kitchen and lounge 2338 01:51:34,652 --> 01:51:39,932 Speaker 26: and dining room. Fairly big area, but we like it well. 2339 01:51:40,013 --> 01:51:42,532 Speaker 26: One thing I was going to say is when renovating 2340 01:51:42,532 --> 01:51:44,772 Speaker 26: these houses i've found and I've done a couple, I 2341 01:51:44,933 --> 01:51:47,053 Speaker 26: just moved the kitchen to a totally different part of 2342 01:51:47,173 --> 01:51:50,212 Speaker 26: the room. Two good things about that is the kitchens. 2343 01:51:50,812 --> 01:51:53,852 Speaker 26: I've made my kitchen so they're not a walk through area, 2344 01:51:54,053 --> 01:51:55,852 Speaker 26: you know, so the kitchens set, but you only go 2345 01:51:55,933 --> 01:51:57,412 Speaker 26: in the kitchen if you want to go in the kitchen. 2346 01:51:58,093 --> 01:52:00,093 Speaker 26: And I find out a lot better than how a 2347 01:52:00,133 --> 01:52:03,132 Speaker 26: lot of houses are set up. But also the lighting. 2348 01:52:03,333 --> 01:52:06,333 Speaker 26: You know, when you've got your open planning area, it's 2349 01:52:06,412 --> 01:52:09,892 Speaker 26: quite amazing. I can have two ten what allied light's 2350 01:52:09,933 --> 01:52:12,932 Speaker 26: going in our living area and you can use the kitchen. 2351 01:52:13,652 --> 01:52:19,052 Speaker 26: So that's quite a freaky thing. And yeah, the heating, 2352 01:52:19,133 --> 01:52:20,732 Speaker 26: I don't find that an issue. But we have a 2353 01:52:20,812 --> 01:52:25,253 Speaker 26: separate sort of entrance area is quite big. In another 2354 01:52:25,293 --> 01:52:27,093 Speaker 26: area I took another wall out of and it's now 2355 01:52:27,293 --> 01:52:30,293 Speaker 26: quite a separate down So probably quite lucky there because they, 2356 01:52:30,492 --> 01:52:32,932 Speaker 26: like you say, the teenagers like to hit their own space, 2357 01:52:33,013 --> 01:52:35,492 Speaker 26: but they sort of stuck in their view gyms half 2358 01:52:35,532 --> 01:52:38,133 Speaker 26: the time. Yeah, yeah, yeah, moving the kitchens is a 2359 01:52:38,173 --> 01:52:41,053 Speaker 26: good one, and you know, you can be functional, your 2360 01:52:41,093 --> 01:52:43,053 Speaker 26: house can stay functional while you're setting up your new 2361 01:52:43,133 --> 01:52:43,732 Speaker 26: kitchen as well. 2362 01:52:43,933 --> 01:52:45,572 Speaker 4: So where do you put the kitchen? So you've got 2363 01:52:45,732 --> 01:52:48,372 Speaker 4: the rest of the house open plan, the lounge and 2364 01:52:48,452 --> 01:52:50,532 Speaker 4: maybe the bedrooms in the hallways a bit more, you've 2365 01:52:50,532 --> 01:52:52,612 Speaker 4: opened that up, and then the kitchen is kind of 2366 01:52:52,853 --> 01:52:54,052 Speaker 4: on the separate part of the house. 2367 01:52:54,933 --> 01:52:58,173 Speaker 26: Yeah, well Willis was I if you can imagine the phone, 2368 01:52:58,213 --> 01:52:59,892 Speaker 26: but the lounge was at the front of the house. 2369 01:52:59,893 --> 01:53:01,293 Speaker 3: Which I find ridiculous too. 2370 01:53:02,452 --> 01:53:04,732 Speaker 26: You know, why do people these older houses have the 2371 01:53:04,812 --> 01:53:06,972 Speaker 26: lounge at the front facing the street. You really want 2372 01:53:06,973 --> 01:53:09,372 Speaker 26: them at the back, which I did that to my 2373 01:53:10,013 --> 01:53:13,093 Speaker 26: previous house back in the nineties. I built a new 2374 01:53:13,133 --> 01:53:16,252 Speaker 26: louns on the back and the old lounges become a bedroom. 2375 01:53:17,333 --> 01:53:19,812 Speaker 26: But yeah, I don't know, you've got a street and 2376 01:53:19,973 --> 01:53:22,693 Speaker 26: all the lounges are facing the street, which is ridiculous. 2377 01:53:23,333 --> 01:53:25,333 Speaker 2: It used to be that the houses were designed to 2378 01:53:25,772 --> 01:53:27,732 Speaker 2: show off basically, right, so you had that at the 2379 01:53:27,772 --> 01:53:30,013 Speaker 2: front of the house looked amazing, and then you'd have 2380 01:53:30,253 --> 01:53:33,932 Speaker 2: like a dining room and a living room at the front, 2381 01:53:34,013 --> 01:53:35,973 Speaker 2: and then out the back was all this sort of 2382 01:53:36,652 --> 01:53:39,013 Speaker 2: you know, the kitchen and the bathrooms and all this 2383 01:53:39,133 --> 01:53:41,213 Speaker 2: kind of stuff. That was all about fronting, wasn't it. 2384 01:53:41,652 --> 01:53:43,213 Speaker 26: Back Yeah, but now you want to be able to 2385 01:53:43,293 --> 01:53:45,133 Speaker 26: sort of open your runt slider up or whatever and 2386 01:53:45,372 --> 01:53:48,012 Speaker 26: go to the back the backyard and be more private. 2387 01:53:48,532 --> 01:53:48,692 Speaker 23: You know. 2388 01:53:48,772 --> 01:53:52,213 Speaker 26: It's they're definitely all those old state houses and that 2389 01:53:52,612 --> 01:53:55,253 Speaker 26: sort of thing around lower huts and that, well, they 2390 01:53:55,293 --> 01:53:57,812 Speaker 26: were all landes at the front sort of thing. So 2391 01:53:58,213 --> 01:54:00,412 Speaker 26: there's one side of the road gets the sun on 2392 01:54:00,452 --> 01:54:02,932 Speaker 26: the other side doesn't. So I don't know where they're 2393 01:54:02,973 --> 01:54:06,133 Speaker 26: based their theory on, but yeah, it's my little theory. 2394 01:54:06,213 --> 01:54:09,253 Speaker 26: Or the kitchen, you know, movie kitchens. Another thing I 2395 01:54:09,293 --> 01:54:10,692 Speaker 26: was going to say that, you know, if you if 2396 01:54:10,732 --> 01:54:13,973 Speaker 26: you are renovating, get your full plan, you know, just 2397 01:54:14,053 --> 01:54:16,253 Speaker 26: the full plan view of it, and then look at 2398 01:54:16,293 --> 01:54:20,213 Speaker 26: that before you start cutting anything out, because do it. 2399 01:54:20,492 --> 01:54:22,333 Speaker 26: You might do it for a modern house and you'll 2400 01:54:22,333 --> 01:54:25,452 Speaker 26: find there's a lot less building materials used. But of 2401 01:54:25,532 --> 01:54:27,293 Speaker 26: course you have foot beams and whatnot on the roof 2402 01:54:28,133 --> 01:54:29,412 Speaker 26: usually when you're taking balls out. 2403 01:54:30,853 --> 01:54:32,892 Speaker 4: Makes a lot of sense, Malcolm, thank you. Yeah, kitchen 2404 01:54:32,973 --> 01:54:36,333 Speaker 4: in a different area, you're Rachel. We've got about sixty seconds. 2405 01:54:36,373 --> 01:54:36,693 Speaker 4: How are you? 2406 01:54:38,693 --> 01:54:43,533 Speaker 27: Oh yeah, yeah, my take on it very quickly as. 2407 01:54:45,413 --> 01:54:47,373 Speaker 21: About how the number of years have got just a 2408 01:54:47,453 --> 01:54:52,653 Speaker 21: small nineteen fifty's house and it's great dining, living kitchen. 2409 01:54:53,413 --> 01:54:56,133 Speaker 21: But I have a bit of an issue with it 2410 01:54:56,333 --> 01:54:58,413 Speaker 21: every Sunday when the USC. 2411 01:54:58,253 --> 01:55:00,812 Speaker 3: Goes on the TV now is on? 2412 01:55:01,853 --> 01:55:05,533 Speaker 4: Ye see, I. 2413 01:55:05,653 --> 01:55:09,173 Speaker 27: Cannot stand it. And so there's kind of no way 2414 01:55:09,213 --> 01:55:11,733 Speaker 27: to go unless I go down to the bedroom end 2415 01:55:11,733 --> 01:55:15,413 Speaker 27: of the house or I leave the house. And equally, 2416 01:55:15,493 --> 01:55:19,573 Speaker 27: my husband gets really frustrated with the banging and crushing 2417 01:55:19,653 --> 01:55:21,413 Speaker 27: in the kitchen because I like to potter around and 2418 01:55:21,453 --> 01:55:25,013 Speaker 27: we also have our laundry behind couple doors in a kitchen. 2419 01:55:24,973 --> 01:55:25,053 Speaker 18: And. 2420 01:55:27,373 --> 01:55:32,253 Speaker 4: Yes I can, yeah, Rachel, thank you very much. 2421 01:55:32,373 --> 01:55:32,533 Speaker 18: Yeah. 2422 01:55:32,533 --> 01:55:36,213 Speaker 2: I think that that that overly enthusiastic sport watching leaking 2423 01:55:36,333 --> 01:55:38,653 Speaker 2: into the shared open planned space is a problem for 2424 01:55:38,693 --> 01:55:40,973 Speaker 2: a lot of people. And uh, you know, the way 2425 01:55:41,053 --> 01:55:43,053 Speaker 2: I watch sport as a problem for everyone, not just 2426 01:55:43,573 --> 01:55:45,812 Speaker 2: in the open plan area if we had it, but uh, 2427 01:55:46,293 --> 01:55:50,093 Speaker 2: you know the neighborhood, and you know, just anyone on 2428 01:55:50,173 --> 01:55:51,333 Speaker 2: a sports thread with me. 2429 01:55:51,573 --> 01:55:52,653 Speaker 4: Yeah, poor Tracy Man. 2430 01:55:52,772 --> 01:55:55,892 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, all right, thank you so much for listening everyone. 2431 01:55:56,053 --> 01:55:58,772 Speaker 2: I loved our chats today.
