It's not 0:00:39.053 --> 0:00:42.893 the email. I don't know why that is. Seems so 0:00:42.973 --> 0:00:47.493 informal my email address, doesn't it. It's two o'clock in 0:00:47.493 --> 0:00:51.813 the morning in Los Angeles. There could be some news 0:00:51.813 --> 0:00:53.413 coming out of there tonight. We'll keep an eye on that, 0:00:53.453 --> 0:00:55.413 although it will still be nighttime by the time I 0:00:55.493 --> 0:00:58.893 go off here there. Although it's yesterday, not today, but 0:00:58.973 --> 0:01:01.173 early in today, so we'll keep an eye on that 0:01:01.213 --> 0:01:03.493 throughout the course of the evening. A couple of things 0:01:03.533 --> 0:01:07.973 mainly I want to talk about tonight. Firstly is the 0:01:08.013 --> 0:01:13.413 opening of this road, and I'm kind of disappointed that 0:01:13.453 --> 0:01:17.853 the road was opened with such a soft opening because 0:01:17.893 --> 0:01:23.813 I like a hyped road opening. This is the Munu 0:01:24.013 --> 0:01:27.053 to Tatlado, a highway that goes through the wind farm. 0:01:27.093 --> 0:01:32.093 It looks spectacular. It's even point five k's to replace 0:01:32.093 --> 0:01:34.133 the old man or two gorge that had long slips. 0:01:34.173 --> 0:01:36.653 I think the trains still go through the gorge. So 0:01:36.733 --> 0:01:38.293 your train driver a text me last night. I wasn't 0:01:38.333 --> 0:01:39.533 quite sure if he's going through the gorge, and I 0:01:39.613 --> 0:01:44.933 presume they must. So the first vehicles traveled the road 0:01:44.973 --> 0:01:48.173 this morning. I can't quite work out why more of 0:01:48.173 --> 0:01:50.613 a song and dance wasn't made of it, and why 0:01:50.653 --> 0:01:52.933 there wasn't a walk by eleven point five. That's perfect 0:01:52.933 --> 0:02:00.733 for families, candy floss buses taking people back hats. Ah'd 0:02:00.733 --> 0:02:04.053 be a great thing for the family who wouldn't remember 0:02:04.093 --> 0:02:06.093 walking on a road I walked that were first opened. 0:02:06.093 --> 0:02:10.613 That absolutely absolute waste opportunity, not having open uness. They 0:02:10.613 --> 0:02:16.893 did anyway, So that's a situation. The speed limit would 0:02:16.893 --> 0:02:19.733 be one hundred climeters per hour with two lanes divided 0:02:19.733 --> 0:02:23.133 by a flexible median barrier. That's a good thing or 0:02:23.133 --> 0:02:27.453 a bad thing. Why is it flexible? So anyway, if 0:02:27.493 --> 0:02:29.773 you've been on that road, today because you wouldn't been 0:02:29.813 --> 0:02:32.893 on it Earliss know what it was like. They're calling 0:02:32.893 --> 0:02:40.093 the project so much more than a road. Wetlands, stream diversions, mahey, 0:02:40.133 --> 0:02:44.373 toy artwork on the lookouts, structures and roundabouts. I don't 0:02:44.373 --> 0:02:46.733 know how many roundabouts are if the roundabouts are clear, 0:02:47.373 --> 0:02:49.933 So I do like a new road. The people of 0:02:49.933 --> 0:02:54.013 Woodfulle are excited, the people of Esshurst are excited. I'm 0:02:54.013 --> 0:02:57.093 sure it's up on Google Maps already. So if you've 0:02:57.093 --> 0:03:00.813 experienced this road, let us know what it's like. You 0:03:00.893 --> 0:03:03.053 might be driving as we talk tonight. That would be 0:03:03.053 --> 0:03:09.013 even better expensive for eleven point five kilometers. Can you 0:03:09.053 --> 0:03:12.213 bike it? By the way, be a shame if you 0:03:12.213 --> 0:03:14.253 couldn't buke it. Can you bike it? Can you walk it? 0:03:15.053 --> 0:03:18.533 I don't know the answer to these things. I'll just 0:03:18.533 --> 0:03:20.533 t I see if it's live on Google Maps yet 0:03:21.813 --> 0:03:23.933 I can't actually see where it is at State Highway through. 0:03:24.013 --> 0:03:27.613 Yes it is, it's not yet on Google Maps. You 0:03:27.653 --> 0:03:30.613 can see the road works, but you can't see the 0:03:30.693 --> 0:03:34.253 road opened. That's bad, isn't it. Well maybe you can 0:03:34.253 --> 0:03:36.853 see a little bit of it. So anyway, if you've 0:03:36.893 --> 0:03:38.933 been on that road today or want to comment on that. 0:03:39.013 --> 0:03:41.933 Let us know. The number is eight hundred and eighty 0:03:42.013 --> 0:03:45.893 ten eighty nine twos. I'll say one thing for it. 0:03:47.613 --> 0:03:51.693 It looks a lot sunnier than the road through the gorge. 0:03:51.733 --> 0:03:53.813 That was kind of a god forsaken kind of a road, 0:03:53.893 --> 0:03:56.653 wasn't it. Cold hills on one side and the river 0:03:56.773 --> 0:03:59.373 on the other. Miserable kind of place for a river. 0:04:00.053 --> 0:04:02.013 But this would be great for the people that want 0:04:02.013 --> 0:04:11.013 to commute from Woodville from Mangetuanoka. My lost their job 0:04:11.053 --> 0:04:13.613 at the brewery because that no longer runs from pay 0:04:13.693 --> 0:04:16.933 Here tour. All those people will be commuting to Parmas 0:04:16.973 --> 0:04:21.773 to North. They'll be loving and Danny urk. That's situation. 0:04:21.853 --> 0:04:23.293 The road has opened. If you're a part of that, 0:04:23.373 --> 0:04:25.053 let me know how that worked out for you. That's 0:04:25.053 --> 0:04:27.373 what I want to start the whole thing about tonight. 0:04:29.693 --> 0:04:31.413 So yeah, I don't know why it opened in such 0:04:31.413 --> 0:04:37.773 a weird way. Normally they are falling over themselves politicians 0:04:37.813 --> 0:04:42.293 to open it. I don't quite know what happened there. 0:04:42.733 --> 0:04:48.533 See ahu A Tudanga is the name eleven point five 0:04:48.653 --> 0:04:51.613 killing me to four lane highway that runs from Parmerston North, 0:04:52.653 --> 0:04:55.533 weaving through wind farms to the tuddler town of Woodville. 0:04:57.613 --> 0:04:58.973 I don't know how much it was budgeted, but it's 0:04:58.973 --> 0:05:01.293 eight hundred and twenty four million dollars. Seems fair. I 0:05:01.293 --> 0:05:04.813 guess they're throwing good money after bad keeping the old 0:05:04.893 --> 0:05:06.853 road open. Anyway, if you've been and that, let me 0:05:06.893 --> 0:05:08.893 know how that's worked out for you. It's eleven past eight, 0:05:09.813 --> 0:05:11.693 good evening, Grant, It's Marcus welcome. 0:05:12.893 --> 0:05:16.773 Yeah, I'm actually the mayor of Parmers North and I 0:05:16.813 --> 0:05:19.693 know a bit about the road. So look at can 0:05:19.733 --> 0:05:22.053 I just. 0:05:21.133 --> 0:05:23.053 Can I just throw something at you? There was there 0:05:23.093 --> 0:05:24.373 was a bit of fear mangring it was going to 0:05:24.373 --> 0:05:26.213 be told, was it? And they stopped there? Is that right? 0:05:27.253 --> 0:05:27.613 Yeah? 0:05:27.853 --> 0:05:28.733 Yeah, well done? 0:05:28.813 --> 0:05:31.693 Yeah yeah, it was a bit of It was a 0:05:31.693 --> 0:05:34.933 bit of i'd say a little bit of trepidation that 0:05:34.973 --> 0:05:37.493 it was going to be told. But look, I'm just 0:05:37.533 --> 0:05:41.173 actually an Asheist right now at a community meeting and 0:05:41.253 --> 0:05:43.573 that the new road has opened to a bit of 0:05:43.653 --> 0:05:47.133 fan fare, I mean a lot of commentary about how 0:05:47.173 --> 0:05:51.693 great it is, and you know, seven minutes between the 0:05:51.733 --> 0:05:54.773 two towns of Ashurst and Woodsville, it is a it 0:05:54.933 --> 0:05:59.413 is a great scenic road too, so look, it's it's 0:05:59.453 --> 0:06:01.773 fantastic for us here in the in the Manowood city 0:06:02.013 --> 0:06:05.013 and also for Taro and Hawk's Pay. Is it an 0:06:05.013 --> 0:06:09.413 easy drive, Yeah it is, although it's got a gradient 0:06:09.653 --> 0:06:14.373 very very similar to Transmission Gully, so yeah, it's but 0:06:14.813 --> 0:06:18.253 it's an amazing piece of engineering feat to go through 0:06:18.293 --> 0:06:22.613 the middle of basically the hills there and and also 0:06:23.253 --> 0:06:25.693 the wind turbines on either side, so it is quite 0:06:25.733 --> 0:06:29.533 a picturesque as you come down on the Hawk's Bay 0:06:29.653 --> 0:06:33.893 side or the Tartarua side looking towards the Tararua Valley 0:06:33.933 --> 0:06:38.053 and the real hanging ranges on one side, and you 0:06:38.133 --> 0:06:40.253 come down on the other side into the Muno with 0:06:40.333 --> 0:06:42.493 two you can on a good day you can see 0:06:42.573 --> 0:06:46.093 out to the sea and certainly Mount Hu on one 0:06:46.213 --> 0:06:49.653 side and out to the almost Foxed and the man 0:06:49.773 --> 0:06:50.253 Or Two River. 0:06:50.573 --> 0:06:53.013 Has it caused a land grab to the east that 0:06:53.053 --> 0:06:55.293 people want to buy properties there because it's now much 0:06:55.333 --> 0:06:56.933 easier to commute to Palmerston North. 0:06:58.093 --> 0:07:01.213 Absolutely, I think it will be a Woodville will become 0:07:01.253 --> 0:07:03.373 a commute well, it already is a commuter town to 0:07:03.933 --> 0:07:08.373 Palmerston or City and the easy easiness of being able 0:07:08.413 --> 0:07:11.053 to get across now and to and from work. What 0:07:11.173 --> 0:07:17.013 I think will make Woodville very attractive to new home 0:07:17.053 --> 0:07:19.053 buyers and those sorts of people. 0:07:19.093 --> 0:07:22.013 Yeah, no, it's fantastic. Okay, So it's all go. And 0:07:22.013 --> 0:07:24.253 what was the openin? Was it kind of a soft opening? 0:07:24.333 --> 0:07:26.093 Was this always a day that was planned to open? 0:07:27.653 --> 0:07:29.573 You had it, you were right on the money, and 0:07:29.933 --> 0:07:32.453 maybe the money was the thing they didn't They didn't 0:07:32.453 --> 0:07:35.013 put enough into in terms of opening it, but they 0:07:35.013 --> 0:07:39.413 missed an opportunity. Transport agents. Yeah, the Transport Agency opened 0:07:39.453 --> 0:07:42.053 it on Saturday morning, but they could have done a 0:07:42.093 --> 0:07:44.893 free community day where people could just walk the bridge. 0:07:45.213 --> 0:07:48.333 You know, it had because there's two magnificent bridges, the 0:07:49.293 --> 0:07:52.213 pretty Harker Bridge which goes over the one or two river, 0:07:52.253 --> 0:07:54.853 and then I've got an eco bridge across the Wetlands 0:07:54.853 --> 0:07:58.653 area and it is very spectacular. And there was an 0:07:58.693 --> 0:08:02.693 opportunity where people had put up with basically seven years 0:08:02.693 --> 0:08:08.133 of you know, lots and thousands of cars and trucks 0:08:08.133 --> 0:08:12.213 a day through the village of ashes Dan Woodsville, and 0:08:12.693 --> 0:08:15.213 now they're going back down to nine hundred with the 0:08:15.253 --> 0:08:17.133 new road sort of opening and just on the side 0:08:17.133 --> 0:08:17.413 of them. 0:08:17.573 --> 0:08:21.213 So it's cause of celebs cause of celebration, isn't it? 0:08:21.933 --> 0:08:22.253 Yeah? 0:08:22.293 --> 0:08:23.893 Absolutely yeah. 0:08:23.933 --> 0:08:25.893 And the train still go through the gorge. Have I 0:08:25.893 --> 0:08:26.613 got that correct? 0:08:27.613 --> 0:08:27.813 Yeah? 0:08:27.853 --> 0:08:28.253 It does. 0:08:28.413 --> 0:08:31.613 And look, if you go back to the late eighteen hundred, 0:08:31.893 --> 0:08:35.693 they used picks and shovels to open up the train. 0:08:35.813 --> 0:08:39.253 The train, you know, the rightway line was went through, 0:08:39.573 --> 0:08:41.733 but on the other side, on the on the road side, 0:08:41.733 --> 0:08:44.933 they dynamize of it. And you know that probably has 0:08:44.973 --> 0:08:47.013 been the difference of why they had all the slips. 0:08:47.533 --> 0:08:49.373 Are you going for another shot at the mayalty grant? 0:08:49.413 --> 0:08:50.693 Are you you're going again? 0:08:52.133 --> 0:08:55.773 Yeah, I'm going to have another crack three more years 0:08:55.813 --> 0:08:56.333 and we'll see how it. 0:08:56.653 --> 0:08:56.733 Well. 0:08:57.133 --> 0:08:58.933 Is there any one money against you or or that 0:08:59.093 --> 0:09:01.413 you're like because you've been out of the news so much, 0:09:01.413 --> 0:09:05.053 I mean you haven't really, I mean there's been no 0:09:05.133 --> 0:09:08.613 great abdication. You're you're a dead suirit to be beck 0:09:08.653 --> 0:09:09.013 and are. 0:09:08.933 --> 0:09:12.413 You well you can never be complacent. But I've been 0:09:12.453 --> 0:09:14.533 the mere for a decade now, and as you say, 0:09:14.573 --> 0:09:16.253 sometimes when you're not on the news, that's good. 0:09:17.053 --> 0:09:18.693 It's a very good thing. Right. Well, look, thank you 0:09:18.773 --> 0:09:20.813 for giving us your time tonight, and I really appreciate that. 0:09:20.813 --> 0:09:23.133 There we go, that's the road, it's open, that's the 0:09:23.133 --> 0:09:25.653 mirror of Parmeston. So it goes between it's actually not, 0:09:25.733 --> 0:09:28.413 so it goes between essurist and woodful. I guess you'd 0:09:28.413 --> 0:09:30.093 say it, But he's quite right. They should have a 0:09:30.173 --> 0:09:31.933 bit more of a song and dance about the opening 0:09:31.973 --> 0:09:34.333 of that one. But there you go. If you you 0:09:34.333 --> 0:09:36.413 yourself have driven that and got a road report for us, 0:09:36.413 --> 0:09:38.813 would be nice to hear from you. Oh eight hundred 0:09:38.813 --> 0:09:43.493 and eighty ten eighty love a new road, four lanes 0:09:43.613 --> 0:09:51.533 bangs for your buck Ooh, Marcus, of the barriers flexible 0:09:51.533 --> 0:09:54.053 will be a wire rope barrier motorcyclist standing me, He's like, well, 0:09:54.053 --> 0:09:58.213 there's a cheese cutter. I think the bikers don't like them. Marcus. 0:09:58.253 --> 0:10:00.413 Is there anyone else who is sickened by the new lotto? 0:10:00.493 --> 0:10:03.853 Add who wants to see idiot button aked in the 0:10:03.893 --> 0:10:06.133 snow with god forsaken music that gets stuck in your head? 0:10:06.133 --> 0:10:12.013 Put me buying lotto wherever credit should be fired. So 0:10:12.133 --> 0:10:14.013 it's a person that says that they will if they 0:10:14.053 --> 0:10:16.413 win lotto, they'll ski nagged. I don't have a problem 0:10:16.413 --> 0:10:24.653 with it at all. That's funny, isn't something to be 0:10:24.653 --> 0:10:28.093 offended by that, But oh well, you can walk it, 0:10:28.173 --> 0:10:31.053 you can buy it, and a flexible barrier to the 0:10:31.053 --> 0:10:34.973 wire rope. So there we go. That's a situation with 0:10:35.093 --> 0:10:37.813 this new road. If you've got some experience that, let's 0:10:37.813 --> 0:10:40.213 be hearing from me the brand new road. Oh eight 0:10:40.293 --> 0:10:44.173 hundred eighty ten eighty and nine nine. Keep you I 0:10:44.173 --> 0:10:45.773 think we're out without the bad weather day. We haven't 0:10:45.813 --> 0:10:48.093 got the thunder report. It's a good thing. So I'll 0:10:48.133 --> 0:10:49.693 keep you updated if anything else happens. But if you 0:10:49.693 --> 0:10:52.813 don't want to get involved, oh, eight hundred eighty ten eighty, 0:10:53.773 --> 0:10:55.453 this is the new highway that well, it sort of 0:10:55.453 --> 0:10:59.693 like open Saturday, would also open today. But yeah, it's funny, 0:10:59.733 --> 0:11:02.253 isn't that he says that. That guy says repicturesque going 0:11:02.293 --> 0:11:07.093 through wind farms, And it's certainly wind farms have become picturesque, 0:11:07.133 --> 0:11:10.533 haven't they, Because for a while they're people were doing 0:11:10.533 --> 0:11:14.053 their damnedest to not have them in their neighborhoods. But 0:11:14.133 --> 0:11:16.013 now we seem to be much more kind of easy 0:11:16.053 --> 0:11:18.733 with them. There's also kind of a lot of terraced hills. 0:11:18.773 --> 0:11:22.133 You know, they've benched big hillsides to stop them slipping. 0:11:22.173 --> 0:11:25.573 It's impressive roadworks. So yeah, I was impressed with our 0:11:25.573 --> 0:11:27.333 transmission when I went through that for the first time. 0:11:27.453 --> 0:11:29.053 I'm sure this is the same if you want to 0:11:29.093 --> 0:11:31.533 comment on that eight hundred and eighty ten eighty, if 0:11:31.613 --> 0:11:33.413 he wants to talk about the Loto ad. I think 0:11:33.453 --> 0:11:38.173 it's quite quite that people still complain about ads, because 0:11:38.173 --> 0:11:40.213 I would say for most people they're viewing experience, they 0:11:40.253 --> 0:11:43.613 never see ads. For the fact you're still watching them 0:11:43.653 --> 0:11:47.133 means you're pretty old school. Like most we have a 0:11:47.173 --> 0:11:51.493 remote if there's something they don't like. The other story 0:11:52.053 --> 0:11:55.333 that's got a bit of interest from me today is 0:11:55.413 --> 0:12:01.893 the statistics figures that have come out today. Pretty amazing 0:12:01.933 --> 0:12:09.773 story is and probably for the first time ever, there 0:12:09.853 --> 0:12:13.173 is net migration from the North Island to the South Island. 0:12:15.893 --> 0:12:17.813 And I think ever since the gold Rush ended in 0:12:17.813 --> 0:12:23.333 the eighteen sixties, pip have been heading north. Of course, 0:12:23.333 --> 0:12:24.893 the South Island for a long time was the most 0:12:24.933 --> 0:12:27.413 populars but then of course the North Island has taken 0:12:27.453 --> 0:12:29.293 over and dominated for a long long time. But now 0:12:29.293 --> 0:12:31.293 it seems that the flower is going the other way 0:12:33.653 --> 0:12:38.093 and more than forty thousand people have moved from the 0:12:38.133 --> 0:12:45.053 North Island to Canterbury. Since twenty eighteen, eighty six thousand 0:12:45.093 --> 0:12:47.053 people have moved from the North Island to the southig 0:12:47.053 --> 0:12:50.533 in the last five years, thirty thousand more than people 0:12:50.573 --> 0:12:55.253 that went in the opposite direction. Seas Auklan always said 0:12:55.253 --> 0:12:56.453 to be full of people that have moved up from 0:12:56.453 --> 0:12:59.053 the South Island. Now in fact, the South Island of 0:12:59.093 --> 0:13:00.733 christ Judges full of people have moved down from the 0:13:00.773 --> 0:13:11.213 North Island where with big stories to tell get in touch. 0:13:11.293 --> 0:13:13.533 My name is Marcus head On Midnight. So if you 0:13:13.573 --> 0:13:15.293 are one of those people that's moved from the north 0:13:15.373 --> 0:13:19.573 end of the South Island, how was the experience in 0:13:19.613 --> 0:13:24.693 what advice would you give to others? I think any 0:13:24.733 --> 0:13:26.533 advice when you're moving from one town to another is 0:13:26.573 --> 0:13:30.693 just stay on the down low. Don't come in and 0:13:30.773 --> 0:13:32.653 kick up too much of a fuss. That never works. 0:13:33.173 --> 0:13:34.973 Nest it's Marcus, good evening. 0:13:35.813 --> 0:13:39.013 Good evening, Marcus. Yeah, I just want to talk about 0:13:39.053 --> 0:13:40.973 I love in Gennie Rouge. I just want to talk 0:13:40.973 --> 0:13:45.533 about new road really exciting. David opened. So I think 0:13:45.653 --> 0:13:47.733 all live in Denny Vige to Mute to Paris, the 0:13:47.733 --> 0:13:50.573 North and basher Forth. I lived in Deny Vue for 0:13:50.573 --> 0:13:53.573 about four years now, but I've still got family in Paris, 0:13:53.613 --> 0:13:57.133 and also I can mute quite regularly, so it's quite exciting. 0:13:57.173 --> 0:14:01.413 And the shopped this morning my daughter because she worked 0:14:01.413 --> 0:14:04.333 from Paris and all from Jennie Voge. It takes me 0:14:04.373 --> 0:14:06.853 just want to have the roads open, and we kind 0:14:06.893 --> 0:14:08.573 of didn't know when it was going to open, so 0:14:08.933 --> 0:14:12.053 I hid the meal of town. Someone speaking before it 0:14:12.173 --> 0:14:16.133 was kind of a little bit of a missed opportunity. Yeah, 0:14:16.893 --> 0:14:18.813 for some sort of sort of celebration. 0:14:19.133 --> 0:14:20.933 Well he should he should have driven that. It was 0:14:20.973 --> 0:14:23.293 his job to get that going. How long did how 0:14:23.293 --> 0:14:25.493 long din a victorpartments north? Is it forty minutes? 0:14:27.453 --> 0:14:30.373 For well, fifteen minutes of my little calf and of 0:14:30.533 --> 0:14:33.853 you go from Getty Ricka up to the gett a 0:14:33.973 --> 0:14:36.933 road that's not a nice road. 0:14:37.653 --> 0:14:39.173 Was a new road? How long does it take with 0:14:39.213 --> 0:14:39.773 a new road? 0:14:41.093 --> 0:14:43.893 Apparently? Well, I don't notice. I cann't travel it today, 0:14:43.973 --> 0:14:47.013 so okay, only only the other way? 0:14:47.493 --> 0:14:49.693 Did your door to say? How much quicker it was? 0:14:50.933 --> 0:14:53.333 She did? It was quite nice. It was quite nice, 0:14:53.333 --> 0:14:55.053 but she was she didn't even know what was going 0:14:55.133 --> 0:14:58.253 to be open either, So until she went to go 0:14:58.653 --> 0:15:02.853 the end. Then she takes me to this open man, so. 0:15:02.173 --> 0:15:03.693 She should she should have taken you. 0:15:05.013 --> 0:15:08.093 Well, she was going to work so this morning and 0:15:08.173 --> 0:15:11.013 it came back tonight. So it's because I lived right 0:15:11.053 --> 0:15:14.653 on the State Highway three and I got the railway 0:15:14.653 --> 0:15:18.013 track on one side and end the State highway on 0:15:18.053 --> 0:15:22.013 the other side. So yeah, they looked looked forward to 0:15:22.053 --> 0:15:26.613 it so long. So yeah, I'm looking forward to traveling tomorrow. 0:15:27.733 --> 0:15:29.973 I've put into Google Maps, but the Google Maps is 0:15:30.013 --> 0:15:31.053 not showing the new road. 0:15:32.093 --> 0:15:33.573 Obviously take a better time. 0:15:33.373 --> 0:15:35.973 So yeah, I'm not very happy with that. Actually I 0:15:36.013 --> 0:15:37.013 thought that would be up to date. 0:15:38.253 --> 0:15:41.693 Yeah, we didn't know Thomas mon I needed, so I guess. 0:15:41.533 --> 0:15:44.093 It takes you haven't got much of a bush telegraph 0:15:44.093 --> 0:15:45.973 there and Eddio. That's disgusting that you've got no idea 0:15:45.973 --> 0:15:47.653 when you road. Don't know that'd be the only story 0:15:47.693 --> 0:15:48.093 in town. 0:15:49.293 --> 0:15:51.493 I was only just said my daughter takes me when 0:15:51.493 --> 0:15:54.253 she was going to week Sat, and so nobody knew 0:15:54.333 --> 0:15:59.973 what date or it was officially open on Saturday, and 0:16:00.453 --> 0:16:04.413 the governing officials come through and not open to the public, 0:16:04.533 --> 0:16:06.693 so we didn't know exact they win. 0:16:07.493 --> 0:16:11.533 So yeah, people are more people are more people moving 0:16:11.573 --> 0:16:13.213 to Donaverk or leaving Diana Vik. 0:16:15.133 --> 0:16:17.213 It's been hard to say. And between we're getting a 0:16:17.213 --> 0:16:20.333 lot of awkward people coming and I don't. 0:16:20.133 --> 0:16:23.453 Think, I don't think have been moving ton would. 0:16:23.253 --> 0:16:26.413 They mean awkward people coming to Jenny vug This the 0:16:26.413 --> 0:16:27.853 main year really. 0:16:28.413 --> 0:16:30.813 Buying a renter or moving there and gloating about how 0:16:30.893 --> 0:16:32.853 much money they made with their house selling their house 0:16:32.933 --> 0:16:33.333 up down. 0:16:33.773 --> 0:16:36.813 Well, they're not not gloating. They're buying and buying a 0:16:36.853 --> 0:16:38.653 house and just finding a lot cheaper. 0:16:38.733 --> 0:16:43.973 And and what are they doing for a crust Well, we're. 0:16:43.853 --> 0:16:46.533 Still working and you know, working from home, and they're 0:16:46.533 --> 0:16:47.693 still doing whatever they do. 0:16:47.813 --> 0:16:53.293 Or don't ask like influences or fitness consultants or what 0:16:53.293 --> 0:16:54.253 would you do from home? 0:16:54.293 --> 0:16:57.133 And Genny Vik, I don't know because they don't ask 0:16:57.173 --> 0:16:57.733 them so. 0:16:57.613 --> 0:17:01.413 Much what they're doing. 0:17:02.493 --> 0:17:05.213 They'll change the lifestyle for them though. That's the flower 0:17:05.293 --> 0:17:08.573 paint and one that I thought she seemed to be 0:17:08.653 --> 0:17:09.213 quite eppy. 0:17:09.333 --> 0:17:13.333 So it's a long way for. 0:17:15.573 --> 0:17:18.573 I guess, so which is yeah, but you've got to 0:17:18.693 --> 0:17:19.453 foot with the beds. 0:17:19.533 --> 0:17:21.973 So yeah, you got any roundabouts? 0:17:23.333 --> 0:17:30.253 Uh?

So yeah, I think it 0:18:10.333 --> 0:18:12.053 was Tracy Martin. They wrote a book about that, didn't 0:18:12.053 --> 0:18:18.813 They was like, a might have got that wrong flit 0:18:18.853 --> 0:18:20.453 the note, but you know, Lawsy read a book about her, 0:18:20.533 --> 0:18:23.173 forget what a day.

Are you a mover? 0:19:28.333 --> 0:19:33.733 I am, yes, recently from Auckland down to the Otaga 0:19:33.773 --> 0:19:34.693 region into Dunedin. 0:19:34.973 --> 0:19:36.813 Wow, because. 0:19:38.813 --> 0:19:39.533 Cheap houses. 0:19:41.573 --> 0:19:43.773 Did you realize, did Jordan? Did you realize was a thing? 0:19:47.373 --> 0:19:50.733 I guess like from from I've not of mates have 0:19:50.853 --> 0:19:52.573 lived down in the South and then gone up to 0:19:52.613 --> 0:19:55.893 Auckland to earn a bit more, and then obviously it 0:19:55.893 --> 0:19:58.773 goes a bit further down there in kennerburtin Otago. 0:19:59.413 --> 0:20:03.053 Yeah. I just never realized. I mean when the sense 0:20:03.093 --> 0:20:04.973 of stuff comes through, it looks like it's a really 0:20:05.013 --> 0:20:08.333 big deal. With eighty six thousand people, almost one hundred 0:20:08.373 --> 0:20:10.813 thousand moving to the North Island from the North Island 0:20:10.853 --> 0:20:13.013 to the South within five years, it's a big deal. 0:20:14.653 --> 0:20:15.213 Sure is. 0:20:17.053 --> 0:20:17.933 Is it worked out for you? 0:20:20.093 --> 0:20:20.333 Yeah? 0:20:20.373 --> 0:20:24.533 Well maybe not like super uncommon, but I guess we 0:20:24.613 --> 0:20:26.653 made it work by we took our Auckland jobs down 0:20:26.693 --> 0:20:30.573 with us, both my wife and I. We work for 0:20:31.613 --> 0:20:34.453 tech companies up at Auckland, and with the work from 0:20:34.493 --> 0:20:37.613 home from COVID that's translated into the role can now 0:20:37.653 --> 0:20:40.333 be kind of remote from New Zealand. So we're just 0:20:40.373 --> 0:20:42.173 I just took there as an opportunity to go somewhere 0:20:42.173 --> 0:20:44.853 a bit cheaper Stanley down there as well. 0:20:44.933 --> 0:20:46.253 So yeah, do. 0:20:46.333 --> 0:20:48.493 The bosses ever want to see you in Auckland? 0:20:49.613 --> 0:20:52.013 Yeah, actually I'm here at the moment. That's how I 0:20:52.013 --> 0:20:55.253 caught winding there in my mum's cash. She's got z beyond, 0:20:55.293 --> 0:20:59.613 so that's how he's asking about it. Yeah, So yeah, 0:20:59.853 --> 0:21:01.493 up here at the moment. Just come back from time 0:21:01.533 --> 0:21:05.253 to time because obviously there's always good stuff to do 0:21:05.333 --> 0:21:06.213 it in person, but. 0:21:07.053 --> 0:21:09.013 Because that is the hussle from the end of the airport. 0:21:09.093 --> 0:21:11.573 So is far damn far away. A. That's the that's 0:21:11.613 --> 0:21:12.333 the big downer. 0:21:14.453 --> 0:21:16.293 Yes, ye, it's probably the biggest drive you can do 0:21:16.293 --> 0:21:19.213 down there. Actually, Yes, from from like the Oxygen out 0:21:19.293 --> 0:21:20.773 past moscowle out to the airport. 0:21:21.093 --> 0:21:24.613 Yeah, so tell me how many years since you moved down? 0:21:26.333 --> 0:21:26.853 Just this year? 0:21:26.893 --> 0:21:27.813 Actually very recently? 0:21:28.133 --> 0:21:30.653 Okay, because the whole thing that's key I reckon is 0:21:30.653 --> 0:21:32.893 when you move from one place to the other, is 0:21:32.973 --> 0:21:36.093 when you realize that it's permanent. Has that happened for 0:21:36.253 --> 0:21:38.573 you yet? Have you settled in straight away or is 0:21:38.613 --> 0:21:41.453 it still a work in progress and you might move back? 0:21:43.013 --> 0:21:45.493 Now we're committed. Now we bought some property, yes, so 0:21:47.013 --> 0:21:52.253 I guess that's made it pretty real. Yeah, so definitely 0:21:52.293 --> 0:21:55.213 just gonna I guess paid down mortgage there. And maybe 0:21:55.413 --> 0:21:58.133 maybe it changes again, like if the job market changes 0:21:58.133 --> 0:22:00.013 and people don't let you work from home anymore. But 0:22:00.853 --> 0:22:03.813 while while it works, it works, and I think that's 0:22:03.813 --> 0:22:04.253 where we'll be. 0:22:04.693 --> 0:22:07.413 Is there is there any down side with it to 0:22:07.453 --> 0:22:08.453 be working from home? 0:22:10.413 --> 0:22:10.933 Definitely? 0:22:11.213 --> 0:22:14.373 I would say it does impact on your upward mobility, 0:22:14.813 --> 0:22:20.693 like you're not really coming across the opportunities. There's not 0:22:21.693 --> 0:22:23.933 I guess interned and there ares and tech jobs given 0:22:24.013 --> 0:22:26.893 day where the gigatown when five or first came through. 0:22:26.893 --> 0:22:30.973 But obviously I think especially for the work that we're doing, 0:22:31.013 --> 0:22:33.253 it's definitely all happening in Auckland. Maybe a little bit 0:22:33.293 --> 0:22:35.293 in christ Church too, but so. 0:22:35.413 --> 0:22:37.733 Career advance when in getting hit hunted and stuff that's 0:22:37.733 --> 0:22:39.453 not going to happen because those people aren't there. Is 0:22:39.453 --> 0:22:40.373 that kind of what you're saying. 0:22:41.413 --> 0:22:43.093 Yeah, And I think also just with the amount of 0:22:43.093 --> 0:22:45.373 people out of work. If you know, if someone came 0:22:45.373 --> 0:22:48.013 across your LinkedIn or something and said, hey, we've got 0:22:48.013 --> 0:22:51.093 an opportunity for you, if you said I have to 0:22:51.093 --> 0:22:54.013 be I'm playing them allagine living indeed, and then maybe 0:22:54.053 --> 0:22:56.613 they'd look past you for probably ten other candidates that 0:22:56.653 --> 0:22:59.653 they've got available in an orpened in person. 0:23:00.333 --> 0:23:01.853 Have you found it easy to meet people? 0:23:04.173 --> 0:23:09.293 Yes, Actually one thing we different they noticed was introducing 0:23:09.293 --> 0:23:12.573 yourself to friends of friends. People are quite quite almost 0:23:12.573 --> 0:23:15.133 more accommodating I would say, down there than they are 0:23:16.453 --> 0:23:18.453 even though you aren't out of town and from the 0:23:18.493 --> 0:23:19.093 big city. 0:23:20.453 --> 0:23:21.853 Yeah, definitely quite accommodating. 0:23:22.053 --> 0:23:23.893 Well, I guess probably quite surprised because for so long 0:23:23.973 --> 0:23:25.933 people leaving to need to head north. I mean the 0:23:25.973 --> 0:23:28.293 thing that now that the reverse things started, it's probably 0:23:28.373 --> 0:23:34.013 quite exciting for people. Yeah, exactly your house isn't too cold, 0:23:34.133 --> 0:23:34.333 is it. 0:23:36.253 --> 0:23:40.533 No, No, it's it's got all the nice things that 0:23:40.613 --> 0:23:44.533 heat pump, they would burners both keep we keep it 0:23:44.613 --> 0:23:45.013 nice and warm. 0:23:45.373 --> 0:23:47.373 The great thing about in a cold climate you can 0:23:47.413 --> 0:23:49.573 always if you're always stuck for a conversation, if you 0:23:49.653 --> 0:23:53.293 discuss what sort of firewood you're burning, that you can 0:23:53.293 --> 0:23:55.133 go for days about that. That you're never alone with 0:23:55.173 --> 0:23:58.813 a conversation like that. That's everyone could talk about firewood. 0:23:59.973 --> 0:24:00.333 Yeah. 0:24:00.413 --> 0:24:03.973 Yeah, And obviously I gues said the same Vein, Like 0:24:04.373 --> 0:24:06.773 you go to the shops, people are much willing to 0:24:06.813 --> 0:24:11.813 just talk about anything. Yeah, have longer random conversations than 0:24:12.293 --> 0:24:14.333 I guess I found it awkward. 0:24:14.693 --> 0:24:16.613 Did you just choose to or did you look around 0:24:16.653 --> 0:24:19.133 islet towns in the South Island before you head on Dunedin. 0:24:20.413 --> 0:24:20.693 Leeden? 0:24:20.853 --> 0:24:20.973 Was? 0:24:21.093 --> 0:24:23.373 It was mainly for the family that we had there already. 0:24:23.533 --> 0:24:26.133 Okay, so here that was the big draw. 0:24:26.773 --> 0:24:28.693 Really interesting to talk Jordan, Thank you so much to that, 0:24:28.813 --> 0:24:33.773 very generous with your information. Find this fascinating, absolutely fascinating 0:24:34.373 --> 0:24:36.293 because your thought. For a long time the South Island 0:24:36.333 --> 0:24:38.373 was dying, but then there was the quake in the rebuild, 0:24:38.773 --> 0:24:41.173 and then of course Central Targo is growing like topsy 0:24:41.213 --> 0:24:45.693 because it's spectacular despite all its planning issues. Yeah, and 0:24:45.813 --> 0:24:50.973 let's not forget Rolliston growing like there's no tomorrow. I 0:24:51.013 --> 0:24:53.533 think there's forty thousand people or something there. I think 0:24:53.533 --> 0:24:56.013 it's the fifth biggest place in the South Island. All 0:24:56.013 --> 0:25:05.293 these things are great stories and affordability, work life balance, YadA, yadia. Well, 0:25:05.293 --> 0:25:06.813 I don't want to be the advocate for but I 0:25:06.893 --> 0:25:10.813 kind of was there but a while ago with a 0:25:10.893 --> 0:25:16.853 north south switch and yeah, no complaints at all. Get 0:25:16.853 --> 0:25:18.493 in touch, you want to talk. Moname is Marcus welcome 0:25:18.613 --> 0:25:20.773 Eddal twelve. The new road, the one or two tunnel, 0:25:20.893 --> 0:25:23.853 a highway, that's topic one. Topic two. All these people 0:25:23.893 --> 0:25:25.853 moving from the North under the side. I couldn't believe 0:25:25.853 --> 0:25:28.533 when I saw the article. Seems all the young people 0:25:28.573 --> 0:25:31.973 heading overseas, the progressives and those that want to stand 0:25:32.213 --> 0:25:36.213 in the moving to the South Island. Ten percent of 0:25:36.213 --> 0:25:40.533 those moving south have come from Wellington, So now four 0:25:40.533 --> 0:25:42.533 point three percent of whin Tonians are living in the 0:25:42.573 --> 0:25:51.293 South Island. New Zealand North Island is moving to christ Church. 0:25:51.333 --> 0:25:54.013 If one aim in common affordability, they've discovered it's not 0:25:54.053 --> 0:25:56.933 all about the money. Everything's a bit slower. Knowing in 0:25:56.973 --> 0:26:03.173 a rush less win less traffic, less rent and a 0:26:03.213 --> 0:26:04.333 lot more sun. 0:26:07.493 --> 0:26:07.693 You go. 0:26:07.773 --> 0:26:12.173 A lot of people like a lifestyle block too, don't they. 0:26:13.173 --> 0:26:18.733 So there we go. It's amazing. After the quake, everyone 0:26:18.773 --> 0:26:21.213 thought that christ Church would well, not everyone, but they thought, well, 0:26:21.253 --> 0:26:23.253 it's touch and go where the christ Church would survive 0:26:24.533 --> 0:26:29.573 and Canterbury's blossomed. The new road, the new road that's 0:26:29.613 --> 0:26:31.453 open and moving from the northide to the south side. 0:26:31.453 --> 0:26:33.453 There're two of the discussions that we've got on today. 0:26:34.173 --> 0:26:42.773 I'll get to the texts. Go to Newtube. You go 0:26:42.813 --> 0:26:46.173 to YouTube for an overview of Munuwatu the road that's 0:26:46.173 --> 0:26:50.613 from nol Marcus, you reminded me of the old Hot 0:26:50.653 --> 0:26:52.933 Road and Wellington. Traffic lights are on gentries over the road. 0:26:52.933 --> 0:26:55.213 That center lane could change directions being on the morning 0:26:55.213 --> 0:26:58.093 of the evening rush hour is that's like the Harbor Bridge. 0:27:00.893 --> 0:27:05.973 Marcus moved from Stratford, Taranaki to Maruya. True story to 0:27:06.133 --> 0:27:10.053 Eden's supermarket band. Customers from wearing slippers. 0:27:14.533 --> 0:27:21.213 Oh, Marcus. 0:27:21.213 --> 0:27:23.373 I wonder if it's harder for more recent immigrants to 0:27:23.453 --> 0:27:28.533 make them move. Marcus, visiting family in the South Island's 0:27:28.533 --> 0:27:29.973 like returned to the good old days of thirty or 0:27:29.973 --> 0:27:32.293 forty years ago. A lot of Auckland's become like a 0:27:32.293 --> 0:27:40.973 pig stye Marcus, I wonder how many of those Wellington 0:27:41.053 --> 0:27:43.613 people that are moving down to the South Island ex 0:27:43.653 --> 0:27:46.173 government workers have rescuing made redundant. I went the opposite 0:27:46.213 --> 0:27:48.453 way several years ago, from the South Island to the 0:27:48.493 --> 0:27:51.893 North Island. Well I guess if you are a Wellington 0:27:51.933 --> 0:27:53.653 bureaucrat and you're out of work, you may as well 0:27:54.133 --> 0:27:55.973 go somewhere it's more affordable to live for a while 0:27:56.013 --> 0:28:00.453 as your regroup. I would have thought a lot of 0:28:00.453 --> 0:28:02.533 those people had gone overseas. That was the great fear 0:28:02.573 --> 0:28:04.573 when they cleaned out the bureaucracy, as a lot of those 0:28:04.573 --> 0:28:07.333 people and those skills will be lost forever because you're 0:28:07.333 --> 0:28:10.013 not coming back from Australia, because the figures of the 0:28:10.053 --> 0:28:12.373 young people moving to Australia are through the roof. And 0:28:12.533 --> 0:28:16.013 that's the real worry. Evening, Marty Marcus, welcome. 0:28:16.693 --> 0:28:19.173 You know, Marcus, I've got a field Day's report and 0:28:19.413 --> 0:28:23.373 a new roundabout report about the priory roundabout how it 0:28:23.373 --> 0:28:25.013 handled its thirst field days today? 0:28:25.413 --> 0:28:27.413 How fast the part of any roundabout from the field 0:28:27.493 --> 0:28:29.213 days forty k's or further than that. 0:28:31.813 --> 0:28:36.653 So normally it would take thirty five minutes to get 0:28:36.653 --> 0:28:40.053 to the field days and this morning we left at 0:28:40.093 --> 0:28:43.733 eight o'clock and we were there about forty five minutes, 0:28:43.733 --> 0:28:46.133 so it was ten minutes longer.

We had ten people say, 0:33:19.813 --> 0:33:22.093 so there was a pretty good, pretty good five days, 0:33:22.893 --> 0:33:24.653 two hundred and nights people. 0:33:24.973 --> 0:33:27.893 Wow, okay, long way from the long way from the 0:33:27.933 --> 0:33:28.493 surf though. 0:33:28.813 --> 0:33:29.373 Oh yeah. 0:33:29.413 --> 0:33:33.413 They were going to Hobbiton and Road now using it 0:33:33.413 --> 0:33:35.533 as a bit of a face can for wife and 0:33:35.653 --> 0:33:39.253 doing something in Cambridge Shire. But they were like Christian surfers, 0:33:39.293 --> 0:33:41.253 they're on a mission. They're out to people. 0:33:41.533 --> 0:33:43.613 Oh they're still about the Christian surfers. So they don't 0:33:43.613 --> 0:33:45.013 go away anytime soon, do they. 0:33:45.093 --> 0:33:50.573 Wow, Christian surfers are still going in this millennium just 0:33:50.693 --> 0:33:53.253 like Jesus and are still still ticking over. 0:33:53.653 --> 0:33:54.053 Were there are? 0:33:54.133 --> 0:33:54.333 Yeah? 0:33:54.333 --> 0:33:56.213 Okay, well not nice to hear from you, but it's 0:33:56.213 --> 0:33:58.413 a tremendous report. I enjoyed that much, so thanks very 0:33:58.453 --> 0:34:01.613 much for that. Nine Away from nine Chris, it's Marcus. Welcome. 0:34:02.613 --> 0:34:04.013 Hi Chris. 0:34:04.293 --> 0:34:08.413 Oh hi Marcus. Sorry. Yes, I just would love to 0:34:08.453 --> 0:34:10.813 be at field days, but that's not why I rang, 0:34:10.893 --> 0:34:14.333 But I'd love to get you one day. I've just 0:34:14.453 --> 0:34:17.813 watched the new season of the Castera Tiers Life and 0:34:17.893 --> 0:34:24.773 Death around the Globe was Frounces and Payora Tippany. I 0:34:24.813 --> 0:34:29.173 was quite interested to watch it after in the public 0:34:29.213 --> 0:34:33.933 arena with their staff member, which was quite terrible for them, 0:34:34.053 --> 0:34:38.613 and it was a really great program for the series. 0:34:38.653 --> 0:34:43.613 Tonight they were in Tonga and where his ancestors are 0:34:43.973 --> 0:34:47.413 and it was really good. I really enjoyed it and 0:34:47.773 --> 0:34:52.053 thought it was a really good comeback for their series. 0:34:54.613 --> 0:34:57.013 Did they acknowledge what had happened with that prosecution? 0:34:58.653 --> 0:35:00.853 No, Well, I'm actually looking at it. They had their 0:35:00.933 --> 0:35:04.573 baby daughter in the program and left their boys at home, 0:35:05.293 --> 0:35:08.693 and the babies like not that old, less than a 0:35:08.773 --> 0:35:12.613 year old, and I'm wondering if it was before filmed. 0:35:12.293 --> 0:35:14.573 Before the prosecution, you could well have been. 0:35:15.653 --> 0:35:18.693 Yeah, so judging by the age of the baby because 0:35:18.733 --> 0:35:21.333 at the end of the last series, with their particular 0:35:21.373 --> 0:35:25.333 staff member still in it, the baby had just been 0:35:25.373 --> 0:35:29.213 born and a daughter after a whole lot of boys. 0:35:28.853 --> 0:35:31.973 So they are they sort of going on the world, 0:35:31.973 --> 0:35:34.173 looking at around the world, looking at funeral stuff. Is 0:35:34.213 --> 0:35:35.333 that the way the series works? 0:35:36.333 --> 0:35:39.573 Well, it's it's saying life and death around the globes, 0:35:39.653 --> 0:35:43.853 and next week they're going to I think Rarah, Tonga. 0:35:43.933 --> 0:35:44.573 I'm not sure. 0:35:45.213 --> 0:35:45.373 So. 0:35:45.813 --> 0:35:47.773 I thought it might have been for the Pacific, but 0:35:47.853 --> 0:35:49.853 I don't really know so, but I just thought it 0:35:49.893 --> 0:35:53.053 was quite lovely tonight because that's where his ancestors were 0:35:53.053 --> 0:35:54.973 from and the respect that. 0:35:55.293 --> 0:35:58.093 You know, so he's Tongue and is he. 0:35:59.533 --> 0:36:03.333 He's half Tongu and he has Murray and Tonguan. I 0:36:03.333 --> 0:36:07.373 think his father was Tongan. And he's ever been to Tonga 0:36:07.613 --> 0:36:10.453 though it's only three hours away, he'd never been. So 0:36:10.493 --> 0:36:14.693 he met an ancestor tonight and visited the graves of 0:36:14.733 --> 0:36:19.773 his ancestors like his great great grandfather and so it 0:36:19.853 --> 0:36:24.773 was very and then visited a funeral home and other 0:36:24.893 --> 0:36:27.653 undertank takers. I mean, it sounds a bit morbid, but 0:36:27.733 --> 0:36:31.133 it wasn't really. It was very respectful and very heartfelt, 0:36:31.253 --> 0:36:32.053 I thought to night. 0:36:32.253 --> 0:36:34.173 So, oh, yeah, they seemed to friend with people. I 0:36:34.173 --> 0:36:36.413 don't think it's my jam. I don't like watching about death, 0:36:36.453 --> 0:36:37.973 but people do seem to love it, don't they. 0:36:38.613 --> 0:36:41.133 No, well, I was about to say, you can only 0:36:41.133 --> 0:36:43.093 have so much of it, but I was interested to 0:36:43.133 --> 0:36:46.613 watch the first program of after what had happened to 0:36:46.693 --> 0:36:49.173 see how they redeemed themselves. But they were out of 0:36:49.213 --> 0:36:50.933 New Zealand, so that probably made it. 0:36:52.173 --> 0:36:56.213 I also remember that they went to They went very 0:36:56.253 --> 0:36:59.573 quickly after Queen Elizabeth died to get themselves involved with 0:36:59.573 --> 0:37:02.253 her funeral, which I always thought was a strange thing 0:37:02.333 --> 0:37:03.933 to do, but that seemed to be something they wanted 0:37:03.973 --> 0:37:04.213 to do. 0:37:05.293 --> 0:37:06.333 Sorry, they worry. 0:37:08.613 --> 0:37:12.413 They went to join the queue for Queen Elizabeth when 0:37:12.453 --> 0:37:15.093 she had died and was laying in state. Remember that. 0:37:16.333 --> 0:37:17.693 I do vaguely remember that. 0:37:17.893 --> 0:37:19.413 Yeah. I don't know if that was for the series 0:37:19.533 --> 0:37:19.733 or not. 0:37:21.053 --> 0:37:23.333 Yeah, I don't know, but I mean whether I tune 0:37:23.333 --> 0:37:26.093 in every week, but I was quite interested tonight just 0:37:26.093 --> 0:37:28.933 to see how they redeemed themselves for a TV program 0:37:28.973 --> 0:37:34.773 after the very terrible public profile figure of their last series. 0:37:35.813 --> 0:37:37.733 Yeah, agreed, look nice to hear from you, Christ and 0:37:37.773 --> 0:37:41.893 thanks for bringing that out. That's a good report. I'm 0:37:41.893 --> 0:37:44.573 going to start this hour with extremely good joke that 0:37:44.613 --> 0:37:49.453 I've been sent in. Marcus. How did the tractor break 0:37:49.533 --> 0:37:52.053 up with the other tractor? She wrote him a John 0:37:52.133 --> 0:37:57.573 Dee letter. That is quality. By the way, falcons Crest, 0:37:57.693 --> 0:38:00.213 not falcon Rest, was a TV program. I'd got it. 0:38:00.253 --> 0:38:08.253 Falcons Crest tempted to come stay myself. Actually, I'm just 0:38:08.333 --> 0:38:15.693 trying to. We're planning a hobbit and holiday fidget spin. 0:38:15.813 --> 0:38:22.813 We could do that September.

You can never wash them, so they will 0:38:53.813 --> 0:38:56.853 sink to high heaven purposely to keep the wife away. 0:38:57.453 --> 0:38:59.933 I'm back tomorrow, will doubt more trees and report back. 0:38:59.973 --> 0:39:01.773 You want a pair of chake take care Sha, No, 0:39:01.853 --> 0:39:05.733 not for me.

They got to know me. Loved it, kids love. 0:39:27.613 --> 0:39:28.773 We had to move back to t Walking a few 0:39:28.813 --> 0:39:31.293 years ago now for working in My heart remained to 0:39:31.333 --> 0:39:33.173 the South. We planned to move back when the kids 0:39:33.173 --> 0:39:36.893 had finished school. So we are talking about migration news, 0:39:36.893 --> 0:39:38.533 seeing people moving from the north end of the South 0:39:38.813 --> 0:39:41.573 and the field Days and the Casketeers and the new 0:39:41.653 --> 0:39:47.053 road from the Mono two to the Tuttaders.

I was wanting to why people 0:40:09.053 --> 0:40:12.613 in New Zealand say if you do a news article 0:40:13.173 --> 0:40:16.653 and then you read down and you say two five 0:40:16.693 --> 0:40:21.493 to six instead of at five to six. Why I 0:40:21.533 --> 0:40:25.293 don't get it. I just realized that I'm not exactly 0:40:25.333 --> 0:40:26.253 sure why that happens. 0:40:26.573 --> 0:40:28.213 Tell me about tell me again so I can listen 0:40:28.213 --> 0:40:28.773 more closely. 0:40:29.773 --> 0:40:31.453 So if I listen to the news or the weather 0:40:31.533 --> 0:40:35.413 forecast on news talks at b so someone might say, oh, 0:40:35.733 --> 0:40:41.853 you know, it's stormy in christ Church whatever two five 0:40:41.893 --> 0:40:47.373 to six instead of saying at six o'clock or at 0:40:47.453 --> 0:40:51.973 the time. You guys use the word too. I've been 0:40:52.013 --> 0:40:54.973 here for eight years. I'm just not quite sure why 0:40:55.053 --> 0:41:00.653 people use the word two instead of act. I know 0:41:00.773 --> 0:41:04.613 this might be really boring, but I honestly, genuinely don't understand. 0:41:04.693 --> 0:41:06.933 Why do you understand what they saying? 0:41:08.413 --> 0:41:12.053 No, I understand what they're saying. I just don't two 0:41:12.173 --> 0:41:13.933 a time instead of at the time. 0:41:14.333 --> 0:41:15.373 Tell me again how it goes. 0:41:16.893 --> 0:41:17.853 So, say I was. 0:41:17.853 --> 0:41:21.613 Saying, oh, it's stormy and christ night two five to six, 0:41:22.613 --> 0:41:24.893 whereas if I was an English presenter, I'd say it's 0:41:24.893 --> 0:41:29.453 stormy in christ night at five to six. Why do 0:41:29.493 --> 0:41:30.893 you say two five to six? 0:41:31.333 --> 0:41:32.013 Have I seen it? 0:41:34.613 --> 0:41:37.973 Not you personally, but everyone on the radio station, on 0:41:38.013 --> 0:41:43.933 this radio station does Why do people say two a time. 0:41:45.573 --> 0:41:47.773 I'm not trying to be boring Marcus Onathy, I'm not. 0:41:48.333 --> 0:41:49.333 I nearly didn't ring in. 0:41:49.453 --> 0:41:49.773 I just. 0:41:51.853 --> 0:41:53.933 At the out of the outtro of the bulletin. 0:41:54.213 --> 0:41:54.413 Right. 0:41:55.453 --> 0:41:59.693 Yeah, they'll say that's using sports. 0:41:59.693 --> 0:42:04.373 To Yes, so they say two five passics instead of 0:42:04.413 --> 0:42:05.733 at five pastics. 0:42:07.213 --> 0:42:10.533 Because the news and sport has taken the slot up 0:42:10.573 --> 0:42:15.293 to five to six. It's the it's the it's the 0:42:15.333 --> 0:42:19.293 six o'clock news, and that's using sport to five past six. 0:42:20.253 --> 0:42:24.213 So is there a reason that British people and New 0:42:24.293 --> 0:42:28.013 Zealanders do it differently? So that was my question. I 0:42:28.413 --> 0:42:29.533 going to be antagonistic. 0:42:29.693 --> 0:42:33.853 I haven't heard British radio what they would say. 0:42:34.533 --> 0:42:38.653 I don't think i've ever heard another country say two 0:42:39.533 --> 0:42:42.413 instead of I was just interesting. 0:42:42.373 --> 0:42:44.293 But it wouldn't make sense world. 0:42:45.773 --> 0:42:48.133 Well, if you normally say, oh, so this is the 0:42:48.253 --> 0:42:50.173 news at six o'clock. 0:42:50.493 --> 0:42:54.133 Yes, they start off at the same in the news, 0:42:54.173 --> 0:42:56.453 this is the news at six, and that the ends 0:42:56.653 --> 0:43:00.453 they say, this is news in sport to five past six. 0:43:01.333 --> 0:43:04.133 I agree with you, But in the on if you've 0:43:04.413 --> 0:43:09.093 traveled and I know that you have done so, yes, 0:43:09.213 --> 0:43:11.773 you say at six o'clock at the start of the 0:43:11.853 --> 0:43:14.213 news article, but at the end of it you don't 0:43:14.253 --> 0:43:19.093 say two ten past six, so. 0:43:19.093 --> 0:43:20.973 You think they should say that's news and sports. 0:43:21.613 --> 0:43:24.293 I'm just that I know, I'm genuinely interested as to 0:43:24.373 --> 0:43:24.933 why it is. 0:43:26.093 --> 0:43:26.693 It's a question. 0:43:27.053 --> 0:43:28.973 So you're saying, to be more grammatical to say that's 0:43:29.053 --> 0:43:31.893 news and sport and the time is now five past six. 0:43:32.373 --> 0:43:36.493 I'm not directing anybody, Marcus. My question is why is 0:43:36.533 --> 0:43:40.733 it different? Because I've not heard it before. So normally 0:43:40.813 --> 0:43:44.733 people say, oh, this is what we reported at this time, 0:43:45.213 --> 0:43:51.253 not to this time. It was just a query. I'm 0:43:51.293 --> 0:43:52.253 sorry for ringing in. 0:43:56.013 --> 0:43:56.933 I think it's interesting. 0:43:57.013 --> 0:43:57.373 I just. 0:43:59.933 --> 0:44:02.013 I'm just not sure what the answer is. 0:44:04.453 --> 0:44:07.533 Lean neither that's records ringing it because. 0:44:07.293 --> 0:44:10.133 What we say is that using sport to five past six. 0:44:11.573 --> 0:44:16.173 Yes, So normally if you were listening to the I'm 0:44:16.213 --> 0:44:18.933 not saying everyone should listen to the BBC, but if 0:44:18.933 --> 0:44:22.053 you were listening to that, they would say that was 0:44:22.093 --> 0:44:25.133 the news and sport at five plast six. They wouldn't 0:44:25.133 --> 0:44:26.733 say two five plastics. 0:44:30.013 --> 0:44:30.293 Wow. 0:44:30.613 --> 0:44:35.373 Okay, I know that's entirely boring. I'm going to continue listening. 0:44:35.413 --> 0:44:37.733 I'm sorry, apologize. 0:44:37.533 --> 0:44:40.173 I felt it interesting. But yeah, look, I don't set 0:44:40.253 --> 0:44:42.013 up the templates for the news and sports to like it. 0:44:42.093 --> 0:44:46.053 It's out, it's out beyond my brief. It doesn't jar 0:44:46.213 --> 0:44:52.053 with me. It makes sense to me. Someone else might 0:44:52.093 --> 0:44:56.933 want to comment about that, or some might want to 0:44:56.933 --> 0:45:06.053 comment on Angie. What they thinking about Energi. Yeah, when 0:45:06.053 --> 0:45:08.293 you spoke to travel to broaden your experience and different 0:45:08.293 --> 0:45:12.253 experiences are you? I don't know? And all the things 0:45:12.373 --> 0:45:18.733 of all the things in the world. Marcus tell her 0:45:18.773 --> 0:45:21.933 it's quarter five to two. What does that mean? Anway 0:45:21.973 --> 0:45:23.773 lines there free if you want to come through. Fourteen 0:45:23.853 --> 0:45:26.413 past nine.

You the moon's position as Earth orbits the Sun. 0:46:15.293 --> 0:46:19.453 So yeah, there are big moons in the winter. Becomes 0:46:19.453 --> 0:46:26.333 full precise at eight forty three. Loving that good evening, Tony, 0:46:26.373 --> 0:46:29.613 it's Marcus. Welcome you go, Marcus. 0:46:30.493 --> 0:46:33.133 What that lady was saying about the way you finish 0:46:33.213 --> 0:46:36.213 your news and weather. There's another news program in the 0:46:36.253 --> 0:46:40.013 next hour, so you're up to the five past eight. 0:46:40.293 --> 0:46:42.133 There's going to be another one at five past nine, 0:46:42.253 --> 0:46:46.533 so two five past eight, next one is to follow. 0:46:47.173 --> 0:46:49.413 It's not the end of it. It's not the last news. 0:46:49.133 --> 0:46:49.813 Of the day, is it. 0:46:52.453 --> 0:46:53.533 No, So what does that mean? 0:46:54.853 --> 0:46:59.293 Well, when if you said there's the news at five 0:46:59.333 --> 0:47:02.773 past eight, that kind of completes it. If you say 0:47:02.773 --> 0:47:06.333 that's the news to five past eight, because this morning 0:47:06.453 --> 0:47:08.533 used to come next there there'll be another one. 0:47:08.893 --> 0:47:11.373 Oh yeah, And I think all this is probably quite planned. 0:47:12.053 --> 0:47:14.053 I think we don't do things. I don't think we 0:47:14.093 --> 0:47:17.533 do things in an ad hoc or reckless men are 0:47:17.533 --> 0:47:18.093 with our news. 0:47:19.013 --> 0:47:21.933 No, no, I think in the most complete sense. 0:47:22.573 --> 0:47:29.453 Yeah, but it jarred with her. I know she didn't 0:47:29.453 --> 0:47:33.733 want to come across as sounding patronizing, but she was 0:47:33.773 --> 0:47:36.853 a bit defensive, but yeah, look, I don't know what 0:47:36.893 --> 0:47:40.133 that was. Good evening Markets, Marcus, Welcome. 0:47:40.653 --> 0:47:46.293 Good evening Marcus. The up under two one country the 0:47:46.293 --> 0:47:49.853 British had knocked in one word of and the kiwis 0:47:49.893 --> 0:47:52.173 is not one word of. So it used to be 0:47:52.773 --> 0:47:56.173 the news and weather up to six o'clock. Now someone 0:47:56.213 --> 0:47:59.533 says news and weather up six o'clock. On News and 0:47:59.613 --> 0:48:03.933 Weather two six o'clock, it's quite simple. 0:48:03.973 --> 0:48:07.293 Really doesn't sound that simple because we're too about that's 0:48:07.373 --> 0:48:09.373 news and sport to five past six. 0:48:10.573 --> 0:48:14.053 Yeah, but you could say up to five past six 0:48:16.053 --> 0:48:18.133 and people have dropped one of the words. 0:48:18.373 --> 0:48:20.653 Why would you say up to five? Why would you 0:48:20.653 --> 0:48:21.973 say up to five past six? 0:48:22.453 --> 0:48:25.693 Because that's all the news and sport that I know 0:48:25.773 --> 0:48:27.173 about up to five past six. 0:48:28.773 --> 0:48:31.733 Basically, I think that sounds I think to me, that 0:48:31.733 --> 0:48:32.733 sounds a bit clunkier. 0:48:33.493 --> 0:48:35.533 Yeah, that's why they've cut them short. That's why they've 0:48:35.533 --> 0:48:36.213 cut words off. 0:48:36.613 --> 0:48:40.733 Okay, who's they as well? 0:48:40.773 --> 0:48:44.173 Anyone who's in the business, I suppose decides which words 0:48:44.173 --> 0:48:46.573 to cut out on the radio or TV programs or whatever, 0:48:47.453 --> 0:48:50.013 just to shorten the abbreviation so then get through more stuff. 0:48:50.013 --> 0:48:53.333 I suppose I don't know or people just get lazy 0:48:53.333 --> 0:48:55.773 and say, oh, let's just say up up six o'clock 0:48:55.893 --> 0:48:56.893 or two six o'clock. 0:48:59.253 --> 0:49:01.493 Yeah, I'm not fully in agreement with you, Mart, but 0:49:01.533 --> 0:49:03.613 I appreciate your confidence that you rung out and said 0:49:03.653 --> 0:49:06.493 that with Dale Marcus. Good evening and welcome. 0:49:08.853 --> 0:49:09.573 You get a Marcus. 0:49:09.973 --> 0:49:10.213 Look. 0:49:10.373 --> 0:49:12.973 I've just come up over the New George Road. 0:49:15.373 --> 0:49:17.853 So you've gone it's east west west east, isn't it? 0:49:17.893 --> 0:49:18.053 Is that? 0:49:18.093 --> 0:49:18.213 What? 0:49:18.253 --> 0:49:20.013 That's the way it goes with a kink. 0:49:20.213 --> 0:49:23.533 Yeah, Well I've traveled. Yeah, I've traveled from the Fielding side, 0:49:23.533 --> 0:49:25.893 coming through to Ashes and up over the Gorge towards 0:49:25.893 --> 0:49:27.933 Woodville and gone over to paid perf for something. And 0:49:27.973 --> 0:49:30.773 I've come on the way back both ways. The fantastic 0:49:30.853 --> 0:49:34.733 views of Parmes the north and Woodville and you know, 0:49:34.813 --> 0:49:38.413 the light scenery is just incredible. But one thing I noticed, 0:49:38.533 --> 0:49:40.453 just as an observation for the first time driving on 0:49:40.453 --> 0:49:43.413 a road, as you're coming back from Woodville down on 0:49:43.453 --> 0:49:48.013 this beautiful motorway, you I didn't notice a sign saying 0:49:48.173 --> 0:49:51.053 major intersection ahead. I may have missed a major roundabout 0:49:51.053 --> 0:49:53.093 because as you come down there's a small sign on 0:49:53.133 --> 0:49:56.013 the side that shows a roundabout. But I guess if 0:49:56.013 --> 0:49:58.893 you weren't observant, you can potentially. I'm not saying it 0:49:58.893 --> 0:50:01.213 would happen, you'd have to be pretty dumb. But as 0:50:01.253 --> 0:50:03.973 you come down, particularly at nighttime, next thing, there's this 0:50:04.773 --> 0:50:06.973 there's this big roundabout, well several loads of it, So 0:50:07.373 --> 0:50:10.373 just wondering again I might have missed it, but I 0:50:10.373 --> 0:50:12.173 wonder if that in the future they probably need to 0:50:12.213 --> 0:50:15.333 have a large sign saying major intersection heads. Yeah. 0:50:15.373 --> 0:50:17.453 Maybe and this is the Essue side or the woods 0:50:17.533 --> 0:50:21.493 Woodville side side. Okay, maybe they've got the signe writing 0:50:21.653 --> 0:50:23.173 just quite Oh you can see that now. I'm just 0:50:23.173 --> 0:50:25.773 looking at Google Maps, but that's kind of the photos 0:50:25.773 --> 0:50:28.653 a bit outdated, so they're not even directed. So that's interesting. 0:50:28.653 --> 0:50:30.853 You've got good views down over Parmeerston North that would 0:50:30.853 --> 0:50:32.693 be quite spectacular. 0:50:33.053 --> 0:50:35.853 Absolutely spectacular. Almost the roads up over the hills here 0:50:35.933 --> 0:50:38.773 are yeah, like the Soil Road or the posts who 0:50:38.773 --> 0:50:41.133 are track. You get incredible views of the whole city 0:50:41.133 --> 0:50:43.173 at night time and in the day. But yeah, I'm 0:50:43.173 --> 0:50:45.493 be interested to hear anyone else's comments that have traveled 0:50:45.493 --> 0:50:47.053 over and if they've kind of come to the same 0:50:47.053 --> 0:50:50.573 conclusion that as you come down towards ashes. There's a 0:50:50.693 --> 0:50:53.413 very small sign on the side showing aroundabout, but I 0:50:53.453 --> 0:50:56.133 would have thought that have a big sign saying major intersection. 0:50:56.213 --> 0:51:00.293 Head you're a bit will they run into snow trouble 0:51:00.333 --> 0:51:02.653 there snow? 0:51:03.133 --> 0:51:07.213 Yeah, we occasionally with occasion you get snow. And the 0:51:07.253 --> 0:51:09.933 monow two probably over the hills a bit further you 0:51:09.973 --> 0:51:11.853 can see snow at the moment. I'm not sure if 0:51:11.893 --> 0:51:14.293 what I've seen snow in the twenty five years i've 0:51:14.293 --> 0:51:17.533 lived over this way over the Sederl Road. But anyway, 0:51:17.573 --> 0:51:17.933 there we go. 0:51:18.013 --> 0:51:20.253 I always remember those bleak conditions when there was that 0:51:20.373 --> 0:51:22.613 nd set playing Crest that was the other side, wasn't 0:51:22.653 --> 0:51:25.973 it the flight seven oh three? Terrible conditions? Weren't you 0:51:26.013 --> 0:51:28.613 remember those fat footage of that play from there? 0:51:29.853 --> 0:51:33.533 You further around towards the up there at the moment, 0:51:33.533 --> 0:51:36.613 if you look not on the where the TV and 0:51:36.733 --> 0:51:38.973 tenor is, but further around, there's tons of snow on 0:51:39.013 --> 0:51:41.333 the hills around all the ranges around there for sure. 0:51:41.493 --> 0:51:44.933 And Livin there's there's there's always snow in the winter. 0:51:45.373 --> 0:51:48.333 Great report, Thanks Dale, hold your horses, Johnny with you soon, Sue, 0:51:48.333 --> 0:51:49.893 It's Marcus. Welcome good evening. 0:51:51.333 --> 0:51:52.893 Oh hello, Marcus. 0:51:52.973 --> 0:51:53.173 Hi. 0:51:54.493 --> 0:51:58.693 I used to be a grammar teacher for the international 0:51:58.773 --> 0:52:02.173 students who came to New Zealand and for the refugees, 0:52:04.013 --> 0:52:08.493 and when you always taught there. But the prepositions in 0:52:08.773 --> 0:52:13.333 on and at and in was for in the morning, 0:52:13.413 --> 0:52:17.253 in the afternoon and in the evening. And on was 0:52:17.373 --> 0:52:21.613 for on Sunday, on Monday, on Tuesday, on Wednesday, so 0:52:21.693 --> 0:52:25.453 that was days of the week. And at was always 0:52:25.453 --> 0:52:28.533 for the time, like at four o'clock, at five o'clock, 0:52:28.573 --> 0:52:30.453 at six o'clock, at seven o'clock. 0:52:32.613 --> 0:52:34.933 Yeah, I think it was always for the time. 0:52:35.333 --> 0:52:35.733 Yeah. 0:52:35.813 --> 0:52:38.333 I think they say this is the news at six 0:52:38.373 --> 0:52:40.573 o'clock and then they say that is the news to 0:52:40.573 --> 0:52:43.533 five past six. It's like the end bracket on the news. 0:52:45.053 --> 0:52:45.453 Oh. 0:52:45.613 --> 0:52:47.613 I say, what's. 0:52:47.493 --> 0:52:50.733 At the other end of it, Johnny, it's Marcus. 0:52:50.773 --> 0:52:55.293 Good evening, Oh, good evening, you st. I was just 0:52:55.333 --> 0:52:59.693 getting on the conversation about people moving down to the 0:52:59.693 --> 0:53:04.853 South Holland and droves. I remember going back to South 0:53:04.893 --> 0:53:07.933 Holland for thro Tom and Tetay them and there were 0:53:07.973 --> 0:53:11.333 still people leaving the bottom of the South Island and drives, 0:53:12.093 --> 0:53:16.653 and there was row after row of houses and Avocago 0:53:16.733 --> 0:53:18.933 that were empty that Lenolds couldn't rent. 0:53:20.533 --> 0:53:20.613 No. 0:53:20.853 --> 0:53:23.373 I remember after the earthquake and chriss each around that 0:53:23.493 --> 0:53:25.573 time that you know, there was a lot of incentive 0:53:25.613 --> 0:53:28.733 for people to move to chross Chuch. But there's this 0:53:29.133 --> 0:53:30.933 old story that there was no way for people to live. 0:53:32.973 --> 0:53:34.813 And I just heard something about it just a few 0:53:34.893 --> 0:53:36.893 days ago that there was there's still not enough places 0:53:36.893 --> 0:53:40.413 for people to live. Who for moving down there. 0:53:41.373 --> 0:53:44.453 It's funny. It's funny because there was that, you know, 0:53:44.573 --> 0:53:48.333 in Vercago had the fastest declining population in the Southern hemisphere. 0:53:48.373 --> 0:53:52.013 There was that, Yeah, And I don't really know what 0:53:52.093 --> 0:53:54.693 turn that round. Probably in all reality was the dairy 0:53:54.693 --> 0:53:57.653 boom and so much dairy support and dairy workers. I 0:53:57.693 --> 0:53:59.933 think there's that, But also to this funny old micro 0:54:00.773 --> 0:54:04.693 migrations too funny enough. After the christ Church quake, I 0:54:04.733 --> 0:54:06.893 noticed a lot of people moved from christ It's two 0:54:06.973 --> 0:54:09.773 in Chicago. There was an influx of people then that 0:54:09.853 --> 0:54:11.813 were looked at, We're finding, Okay, we're out of there. 0:54:11.853 --> 0:54:14.253 We want to go somewhere that's affordable, and we want 0:54:14.253 --> 0:54:15.853 to be south. We want to get out of christ Church. 0:54:16.653 --> 0:54:19.693 A lot of people moved to in Chicago. Then now 0:54:19.733 --> 0:54:21.813 everyone seems to move into Christ Church in Dunedin. 0:54:23.533 --> 0:54:28.133 Yeah, that is interesting. Yeah, I think it's all that 0:54:28.213 --> 0:54:31.013 seems always interesting. Hey, Marcus, I did want to ask 0:54:31.053 --> 0:54:34.453 for something else. We went over to the Pikatarki broach 0:54:34.493 --> 0:54:39.013 today just before tunny as work, and we drove through 0:54:39.013 --> 0:54:46.573 some floodwaters on on the way towards Pokahena coming from Totonga. 0:54:47.653 --> 0:54:49.893 And that the Pikatarki bridge is over one hundred years 0:54:49.933 --> 0:54:54.253 old and it's going to be replaced. But it's it's 0:54:54.293 --> 0:54:59.533 absolutely terrible. And when you have it's a traffic light bridge, 0:54:59.613 --> 0:55:05.093 one lane and it's one giant pothole. Really, but took 0:55:05.093 --> 0:55:06.853 the truck over the here with the crane it and 0:55:07.413 --> 0:55:09.693 there was a logging truck on the other side shaking 0:55:09.693 --> 0:55:13.813 his head, very angry looking guy because the light had 0:55:13.893 --> 0:55:15.333 changed while I was halfway across. 0:55:17.173 --> 0:55:19.453 It's a single it's a single lane bridge, isn't. 0:55:20.213 --> 0:55:22.933 Yes, Yes, there's traffic light at each end and so 0:55:23.333 --> 0:55:25.413 it runs out like you know that the old pedestrian 0:55:25.453 --> 0:55:27.573 crossing runs out before you get to the other side. 0:55:29.093 --> 0:55:32.133 Tunes read again from green Well this this happened today 0:55:32.173 --> 0:55:35.213 and I thought that's pretty dangerous. 0:55:35.853 --> 0:55:37.733 What we're doing. What we're doing in the crane. 0:55:39.133 --> 0:55:41.293 I've got a truck with a crane. It's just a 0:55:41.293 --> 0:55:44.213 small one and I'm just doing a little bit of 0:55:44.253 --> 0:55:46.253 work on it before I get a tear cel and 0:55:46.333 --> 0:55:50.293 start my own little delivery business of sides eight tons 0:55:50.933 --> 0:55:52.693 and yeah, a nice little crane there. 0:55:52.813 --> 0:55:55.493 So what will you be delivering? 0:55:56.453 --> 0:55:59.613 Oh like railway sleepers when we can get them again, 0:56:01.213 --> 0:56:06.853 and yeah, paving palettes to building sites. But it interesting 0:56:06.853 --> 0:56:09.333 thing on the way down today to one and we 0:56:09.373 --> 0:56:12.933 saw the railway lines and there's a hole of golf 0:56:12.973 --> 0:56:15.813 carts on railway tracks. Now there's a little tour you 0:56:15.853 --> 0:56:18.893 can go on down the just around each comp Yeah 0:56:19.493 --> 0:56:23.053 I hate it. Yes, it's cheer boy. 0:56:24.613 --> 0:56:28.173 Doesn't doesn't. It's just a disgusting that we had a 0:56:28.213 --> 0:56:29.973 great rail in it. We Now we got people on 0:56:30.133 --> 0:56:32.733 golf frolly saying, oh look at this is amazing. I mean, 0:56:34.293 --> 0:56:37.253 you know anyway, what what what? What is interesting? I 0:56:37.293 --> 0:56:39.133 think at tunning our tour and you know about this 0:56:39.853 --> 0:56:42.013 there was a shared road rail bridge. Is that the 0:56:42.013 --> 0:56:43.053 one you're talking about? 0:56:45.213 --> 0:56:45.373 No? 0:56:45.453 --> 0:56:47.293 Did that goes as far as twenty A tour where 0:56:47.293 --> 0:56:49.093 was the road rail bridge the shared one? 0:56:50.933 --> 0:56:53.173 Do you remember we a sheared road railroadge for us 0:56:53.293 --> 0:56:57.773 and to with the railway track in the road. No, no, 0:56:58.013 --> 0:56:58.853 my patents. 0:56:58.493 --> 0:56:59.893 From the remember. 0:57:01.933 --> 0:57:03.333 I might have my rise crossed. 0:57:04.333 --> 0:57:06.693 Yeah, there's a whole lot of railway line that's up. 0:57:06.693 --> 0:57:10.333 That'scott farmland on it. So there's the railway's been abandoned. 0:57:10.333 --> 0:57:15.613 There's BlackBerry growing over the top of it near the river. Yeah, 0:57:15.653 --> 0:57:19.053 and so there's railway sleepers. People have come along and 0:57:19.133 --> 0:57:22.133 just checked up the railway lines and punched them all. 0:57:22.133 --> 0:57:25.413 But what's Johnny, what's the sleeper worth? 0:57:26.413 --> 0:57:26.573 Oh? 0:57:26.733 --> 0:57:30.693 Retail ninety dollars? Oh yeah, yeah, shocking, isn't it. 0:57:30.933 --> 0:57:37.413 Well try and making one, I suppose. Yeah, I guess 0:57:38.133 --> 0:57:40.373 they're worth what people will pay for them. 0:57:40.933 --> 0:57:43.213 Well, there used to be reasonably priced to buy, but 0:57:43.333 --> 0:57:46.253 now you know they're run well over one thousand dollars 0:57:46.293 --> 0:57:48.893 for a bund or twenty five. So you're looking at 0:57:49.453 --> 0:57:52.333 transporting those as well, which is about it up to 0:57:52.533 --> 0:57:53.693 twelve hundred kilograms. 0:57:54.453 --> 0:57:56.173 Yeah, I'm going to run Johnny on news. But look, 0:57:56.173 --> 0:57:57.573 it's nice to talk to you. Thank you for that. 0:57:58.053 --> 0:58:00.413 Keep your calls coming through and enjoying it greatly. People, 0:58:01.013 --> 0:58:02.773 it'scared to say the time now in case and who's 0:58:02.773 --> 0:58:06.533 going to come down the pipes? What are you saying that, 0:58:08.533 --> 0:58:13.933 Jason Marcus? Welcome Marcus made a right, Yeah, good Jason yourself. 0:58:14.333 --> 0:58:16.373 Hey, he'd pretty good on the headline there. We're just 0:58:16.373 --> 0:58:21.133 talking about facial recognition technology and a bit behind nowadays. Hey, 0:58:21.133 --> 0:58:23.613 I want to swing back to the railways for a second. 0:58:23.613 --> 0:58:25.693 You know, one of the biggest issues is maintaining the 0:58:25.733 --> 0:58:28.173 railways and keeping it eye on the tracks and all 0:58:28.173 --> 0:58:29.773 the people. We need to actually go ahead and actually 0:58:29.773 --> 0:58:31.493 make sure the railway is safe for people to use. 0:58:32.013 --> 0:58:33.773 The same technology that's going to be used for this 0:58:33.813 --> 0:58:36.893 facial recognition stuff can be used to monitor the railway 0:58:36.933 --> 0:58:38.933 systems as the trains move around. It's the same stuff 0:58:38.933 --> 0:58:41.093 that can be used to one of the roads as 0:58:41.133 --> 0:58:43.653 buses and caurier drivers and taxis and things move around 0:58:43.653 --> 0:58:44.773 as well. So watch the space. 0:58:44.933 --> 0:58:45.493 Very exciting. 0:58:45.533 --> 0:58:49.413 Actually, facial recognition technology is being used all around the world. 0:58:49.893 --> 0:58:51.373 Are you excited about it or you're not? 0:58:51.693 --> 0:58:56.613 For you, how is it going to possibly impact your life? 0:58:58.733 --> 0:59:05.013 I think probably removing I think probably removing the sphere 0:59:05.893 --> 0:59:08.333 of whether there are desirable people in places I don't 0:59:08.373 --> 0:59:11.333 want them to be, especially if we know who they are. 0:59:12.853 --> 0:59:15.053 Does it Are you scared? Often? Have people been where 0:59:15.093 --> 0:59:16.693 they shouldn't be or where you are? 0:59:17.853 --> 0:59:18.013 Well? 0:59:18.053 --> 0:59:19.733 No, but I think there is a I think there 0:59:19.773 --> 0:59:23.573 is a more fragile group of people out there. As 0:59:24.613 --> 0:59:26.973 as we engaging population, there's chrime rates starts to sort 0:59:26.973 --> 0:59:30.533 of you know, tear off. We've still got a bit 0:59:30.573 --> 0:59:32.973 of the unknown. Is there somebody in a bar who 0:59:33.013 --> 0:59:35.693 shouldn't be there because they caused the ruckus three weeks ago? 0:59:35.813 --> 0:59:38.053 Is there somebody who was I'm. 0:59:37.893 --> 0:59:39.853 Not necessarily going to cause a ruckus this time? Are 0:59:39.933 --> 0:59:46.013 they if it's a well managed bar. Are that you're 0:59:46.013 --> 0:59:48.053 handing too much faith into the technology? 0:59:49.253 --> 0:59:51.173 Well, we're moving that way, and we're using that airport's 0:59:51.213 --> 0:59:53.213 already all around the world. We're using going to have 0:59:53.253 --> 0:59:55.653 train stations already all around the world. We're using it 0:59:55.653 --> 0:59:58.053 when we go to the airport, when you go on 0:59:58.093 --> 1:00:01.493 your flight, when you arrive in America, when you arrive 1:00:01.493 --> 1:00:03.773 the most sort of you know, airports in the world. 1:00:03.813 --> 1:00:05.093 We'd already using it, would be using it for a 1:00:05.133 --> 1:00:09.013 long time. It's nothing new. What I'd be interested in 1:00:09.173 --> 1:00:10.533 is how far are they going to take it? Where 1:00:10.573 --> 1:00:13.093 else do they want to put it? And who's going 1:00:13.133 --> 1:00:14.413 to look after their data? 1:00:14.533 --> 1:00:15.293 That's probably I think. 1:00:15.213 --> 1:00:17.773 It's concerned God on here, Jason, thanks for that. Twenty 1:00:17.813 --> 1:00:20.933 five to ten, someone said it's another way of saying 1:00:21.053 --> 1:00:25.693 up until is two For a good point, Marcus, are 1:00:25.693 --> 1:00:28.493 the stories online about Bradley Walsh being sacked from the chase? 1:00:28.533 --> 1:00:28.733 True? 1:00:28.813 --> 1:00:31.773 Is at fake news? I click on the stories but 1:00:31.893 --> 1:00:35.573 seems to get redirected other websites. Cheers, curious that will 1:00:35.613 --> 1:00:40.453 be fake news. If Bradley Walsh got the don't come Monday, 1:00:40.533 --> 1:00:45.173 it would be third story up in the bulletin. So yes, 1:00:45.213 --> 1:00:47.253 but thanks for asking. But yes, they go to and 1:00:47.293 --> 1:00:51.333 then they get the hits, the clicks Marcus, it's the 1:00:51.373 --> 1:00:53.613 news up to six, but the upper is usually dropped. 1:00:55.933 --> 1:00:57.573 Oh my god, that was so boring. My English daddy 1:00:57.573 --> 1:00:59.853 is to say the time was five and twenty past, Kezzy, 1:01:01.893 --> 1:01:04.013 she's been reboring. Who cares how the news is? Time? 1:01:04.093 --> 1:01:07.813 Get over it, lady, Marcus. I was in Zagreb, Croatia, 1:01:07.813 --> 1:01:09.933 a few years back. While talking to a local near 1:01:09.933 --> 1:01:12.093 a football steam. She told me his story where the 1:01:12.133 --> 1:01:15.773 local supporters try to find out who's from their rivals 1:01:15.773 --> 1:01:17.733 in the south of the country. They would ask them 1:01:17.773 --> 1:01:20.933 the time and they would reply, for example, quarter past six, 1:01:21.493 --> 1:01:25.333 whereas the locals would say it's fifteen past. If they 1:01:25.373 --> 1:01:29.733 do find an opposition support, they'll get roughed. Up market's 1:01:29.773 --> 1:01:31.653 the news up until six, but the up until is 1:01:31.693 --> 1:01:38.373 usually dropped. Marcus has the South Island supermarket band pj's 1:01:38.413 --> 1:01:45.333 and onesies or just slip it slippers. Just wondering, Ice 1:01:45.373 --> 1:01:47.293 would say, a lot of the people are in pajamas 1:01:47.293 --> 1:01:50.093 and onesies now in the supermarket. I don't think you 1:01:50.093 --> 1:01:53.933 can enforce address stand at the supermarket. Not sure. Why 1:01:53.973 --> 1:01:56.813 would I find the grammatical chat quite interesting? Maybe I 1:01:56.853 --> 1:01:59.733 am boring, just different ways of saying the same things, 1:01:59.813 --> 1:02:01.573 really and enduring the show and Queen said that che 1:02:01.573 --> 1:02:05.893 has beat Marcus. I think someone's getting confused. Then news 1:02:05.933 --> 1:02:08.653 it to five past six is whenning the time to 1:02:08.733 --> 1:02:11.373 five minutes. She could also replace the two five with 1:02:11.573 --> 1:02:18.413 until five. Yes, road rail bridge between Totecho and Tania 1:02:18.413 --> 1:02:22.453 Tour was no longer. Yes, Marcus Picata Bridge did share 1:02:22.493 --> 1:02:24.853 the rail with right where were kids olive at Awakiri? 1:02:25.653 --> 1:02:27.173 We had to give way to the train is it 1:02:27.213 --> 1:02:32.813 does need replacing.

Heys, thanks so much that nine from 1:05:35.693 --> 1:05:37.493 ten angel Ats Marcus, good evening. 1:05:38.613 --> 1:05:44.213 Hello, I'm ringing from Northland. 1:05:44.293 --> 1:05:44.613 Fra. 1:05:45.173 --> 1:05:49.733 Yes, I the awkward thing I. 1:05:49.653 --> 1:05:51.693 Lived with for a long time. Bought my first house 1:05:51.733 --> 1:05:54.533 in my twenties and in Terrace, and then from my 1:05:54.613 --> 1:05:58.093 late twenties had you know the word out cash up 1:05:58.093 --> 1:06:00.653 now sar your house moved down to christ Church and 1:06:00.693 --> 1:06:05.413 I did that and looked around for a bit because 1:06:05.533 --> 1:06:07.773 for me coming from Auckland, the city was coming back 1:06:07.813 --> 1:06:12.133 to front so where the eastern suburbs was pretty much 1:06:12.333 --> 1:06:15.933 like well, not our eastern suburbs in Auckland, but I 1:06:16.013 --> 1:06:17.853 found that the closer got to. 1:06:17.773 --> 1:06:20.933 The airport, the railway lines and the. 1:06:22.173 --> 1:06:26.293 Your big pole lines, and that that was the richest suburbs. 1:06:26.613 --> 1:06:29.533 So normally in Auckland you go to Manory and that's 1:06:29.613 --> 1:06:30.573 your poorer. 1:06:30.333 --> 1:06:31.413 Suburbs and so forth. 1:06:31.493 --> 1:06:35.893 But in christ Church that was where the western suburbs 1:06:35.893 --> 1:06:38.773 are wealthier, so that took me a while to get 1:06:38.773 --> 1:06:42.493 the head round. But aside from that, got there settlement 1:06:42.493 --> 1:06:46.213 and took me about three years and ended up buying 1:06:46.253 --> 1:06:49.853 a place over in Littleton. Loved it, loved the community. 1:06:50.733 --> 1:06:54.493 Had an earthquake, the dad rocks out of nowhere and 1:06:54.493 --> 1:06:56.533 I'm thirty eight and there's a lot you're coming home, 1:06:56.933 --> 1:07:01.693 which is back up to North Island. What I left, unfortunately, 1:07:02.013 --> 1:07:06.093 was that I bought the place down there at market 1:07:07.933 --> 1:07:11.413 and with the earth coake they would only basically pay 1:07:11.453 --> 1:07:13.573 you back the rate of all value, so you'd lost 1:07:13.693 --> 1:07:20.053 and you'd lost. And in staying that, I'll come make 1:07:20.133 --> 1:07:22.893 up to from Ray just to actually get my foot 1:07:22.933 --> 1:07:25.653 back in the market. Like I knew, I couldn't afford Auckland. 1:07:26.733 --> 1:07:29.333 And I still have days where I think, yeah, I 1:07:29.413 --> 1:07:32.453 go down about twice a year and I love the place. 1:07:32.733 --> 1:07:38.533 It's some of that, but again it's the concern of like, oh, 1:07:38.573 --> 1:07:41.813 worry that. Okay, jump back into where am I going 1:07:41.893 --> 1:07:42.053 to be? 1:07:45.653 --> 1:07:49.213 So you've moved around a lot plan Sorry, you've moved 1:07:49.253 --> 1:07:49.973 around a lot. 1:07:51.373 --> 1:07:55.813 Not really, because I've just been Auckland, christ Church back up. 1:07:55.693 --> 1:07:59.893 To from Ra so not really, it just sounds like 1:07:59.933 --> 1:08:02.773 it was a very busy itinery would you be worried 1:08:02.813 --> 1:08:04.533 about would you be worried about would you be worried 1:08:04.533 --> 1:08:05.933 about another quake in christ Church? 1:08:07.333 --> 1:08:10.653 No, I'm probably worried the fact that I'm not thirty 1:08:10.693 --> 1:08:14.653 two anymore and fifty one just bought a place and 1:08:14.973 --> 1:08:18.173 for me to sell up and go back down. I'm 1:08:18.173 --> 1:08:21.613 not fearful of another quake because that could be anywhere. 1:08:22.933 --> 1:08:25.813 What seems to be people from Auckland moving up There 1:08:25.813 --> 1:08:27.533 are people from there moving elsewhere. 1:08:29.213 --> 1:08:31.293 People from Auckland will been moving up here. 1:08:31.333 --> 1:08:31.813 I know that. 1:08:33.373 --> 1:08:36.053 I suppose reason being is that you can get into 1:08:36.093 --> 1:08:38.933 the proper market and be close to the water, you know, 1:08:39.093 --> 1:08:42.613 like to the carco or a carcraon all around that area. 1:08:43.093 --> 1:08:48.853 You got Wypoo and so forth, And it's quick to 1:08:48.893 --> 1:08:51.853 get back down to Auckland if you wish you away 1:08:51.933 --> 1:08:53.973 or want to go down to town or so forth. 1:08:55.533 --> 1:08:57.613 And you do have the airport, Like when I go 1:08:57.653 --> 1:09:00.253 down to christ Church, I go to the Sommery Airport 1:09:00.333 --> 1:09:02.733 straight to Auckland then onto christ Church and I get 1:09:02.813 --> 1:09:07.333 really good flights if I book a head But I 1:09:07.493 --> 1:09:09.573 actually like this time of the night I will go 1:09:09.613 --> 1:09:12.293 and trade me and I start looking like random, like 1:09:12.373 --> 1:09:14.413 what can I afford for where I live? 1:09:14.733 --> 1:09:15.533 Like what I've got? 1:09:16.013 --> 1:09:21.293 And I'm actually in the up around Omoru tomorrow and 1:09:21.733 --> 1:09:24.013 destinations which I haven't actually looked at. But when you 1:09:24.053 --> 1:09:27.333 look at it, I can actually see where people you know, 1:09:27.373 --> 1:09:30.013 where you can spread yourself out to think, well, I'm 1:09:30.013 --> 1:09:35.133 going to have a lifestyle and in a good solid base. 1:09:39.493 --> 1:09:42.133 So tomorrow. 1:09:42.293 --> 1:09:45.333 It's the funny sort of towns. I don't know. Yeah, 1:09:45.453 --> 1:09:52.373 I I guess it depends on the days you're there. Actually, 1:09:52.373 --> 1:09:52.893 doesn't it. 1:09:54.213 --> 1:09:58.213 Well, if Omor is always good because you've got steampunk, 1:09:58.453 --> 1:10:01.653 and if you're into steampunk, into the Victorian thing, it 1:10:01.733 --> 1:10:03.253 doesn't matter what. 1:10:02.333 --> 1:10:06.413 I find that a big negative for the town. I 1:10:06.173 --> 1:10:08.693 thin I'm having people with top hats and goals. They 1:10:08.733 --> 1:10:10.933 freak me out. Honestly, I think it's got to be 1:10:10.973 --> 1:10:14.813 one of the most banal things I've ever said. It 1:10:15.093 --> 1:10:16.653 just is a massive negative for me. 1:10:18.053 --> 1:10:19.333 So where are you based again? 1:10:19.613 --> 1:10:21.853 Oh? Everywhere? And I'd like to go into it too 1:10:21.933 --> 1:10:24.973 much Angeler, but I'm stay not a steampunk that's I'd 1:10:25.013 --> 1:10:27.773 like to say. I'm down on bluff, but nice to 1:10:27.773 --> 1:10:29.373 hear from me engine. We're just ambling towards the news. 1:10:29.373 --> 1:10:31.733 People who want to talk after eight hundred and eighty 1:10:31.893 --> 1:10:36.053 ten eighty and nine two nine two to text if 1:10:36.053 --> 1:10:45.933 you want to come through. Oh, I see there's a 1:10:45.973 --> 1:10:50.013 TikTok video that's shocking people with an update on the 1:10:50.093 --> 1:10:55.493 real rules on how to play Monopoly, which means if 1:10:55.493 --> 1:10:57.133 you land on a property and don't buy it, then 1:10:57.213 --> 1:11:03.293 it goes to auction. Probably it's a rule, but all 1:11:03.333 --> 1:11:05.773 I can tell you there's some brilliant board games out there. 1:11:06.053 --> 1:11:08.093 Out of all the board games in the world, Monopoly 1:11:08.093 --> 1:11:10.533 would have to be the worst. There is no joy 1:11:10.613 --> 1:11:15.733 Monopoly whatsoever. You just roll your dice going from terror 1:11:15.813 --> 1:11:21.973 to terror. Kids enjoy it, adults hate it. It is 1:11:22.053 --> 1:11:26.373 the worst of the board games, Marcus. The most prime 1:11:26.413 --> 1:11:28.973 wasted space anywhere and ever across the country has to 1:11:28.973 --> 1:11:30.973 be the middle of every roundabout. What would you like 1:11:31.013 --> 1:11:35.373 to see on big roundabouts. We couldn't open a bar 1:11:35.413 --> 1:11:39.173 because it's hard to get to. Trees are pretty good, 1:11:39.173 --> 1:11:44.093 aren't they? Tussocks? I think that works, doesn't it, Marcus? 1:11:44.133 --> 1:11:46.053 In the middle of roundabouts. I'd like to see street 1:11:46.133 --> 1:11:49.053 signs with arrows and towns or suburbs, all in plain 1:11:49.213 --> 1:11:53.253 consistent texts and a sculpture, a piece of art significant 1:11:53.253 --> 1:11:58.613 to the area. Really, I've never really worried about what's 1:11:58.653 --> 1:12:01.653 in roundabouts. But you want to talk on any hours 1:12:01.653 --> 1:12:03.653 of time to come through people cracking to an eight 1:12:03.773 --> 1:12:07.733 hundred and eighty ten eighty nine to nine two to text. 1:12:07.773 --> 1:12:09.933 If there's something different you want to mention, feel free. 1:12:09.973 --> 1:12:13.013 There is a full moon also, which is exciting edge 1:12:13.053 --> 1:12:15.613 a certain edge to the conversation which I quite like. 1:12:19.173 --> 1:12:22.093 And also a discussion about well, I don't know what 1:12:22.093 --> 1:12:26.093 that discussion was about, about what happens at the end 1:12:26.173 --> 1:12:30.613 of the news. News in Sport two five past eight 1:12:30.693 --> 1:12:32.413 apparably the only place in the world that does that. 1:12:32.573 --> 1:12:37.493 So yep, listen and learn people. My name is Marcus Good. 1:12:37.493 --> 1:12:39.253 Even together it's something different you want to talk about. 1:12:40.613 --> 1:12:49.053 There was a back topic on Monopoly, terrible board game anyway, 1:12:49.173 --> 1:12:52.733 but do get in touch is I say eight hundred 1:12:52.733 --> 1:12:55.373 and eighty ten eighty and nine two nine two to text. 1:12:56.293 --> 1:13:01.253 By the way, they're calling the Irwins Australians Cadeshians. I 1:13:01.253 --> 1:13:05.213 thought that was quite good, all stage managed. Everyone's obsessed 1:13:05.213 --> 1:13:08.893 with them. There we go he hadn't heard that before. 1:13:08.933 --> 1:13:10.333 But get in touch people if you don't talk. My 1:13:10.413 --> 1:13:12.653 name is Marcus. Welcome. So when I start the whole 1:13:12.693 --> 1:13:16.093 ball rolling for this hour some of the other stuff, 1:13:16.093 --> 1:13:17.853 I can tell your time and dates and what why 1:13:17.893 --> 1:13:21.733 today is special. There was a road snowfall warning for 1:13:21.813 --> 1:13:26.093 porters Parceland and passing the Crown Range. Love the Crown Range. 1:13:29.373 --> 1:13:31.933 It is International Links Day. I never know what that is. 1:13:34.533 --> 1:13:39.253 Wild Cats where do they live? Where's Lynx live? But 1:13:39.333 --> 1:13:44.333 would would it be South America? Don't know, don't know 1:13:44.413 --> 1:13:46.733 much about links. That's probably why I need to study 1:13:46.733 --> 1:13:49.333 it for today. It is Caught on the Cobb Day 1:13:49.413 --> 1:13:55.213 and German Chocolate Cake Day two thousand and two TV 1:13:55.373 --> 1:13:59.933 series American Idle Day Bud. I don't know who the 1:13:59.933 --> 1:14:02.013 winner was. Was it Reuben Stobart? Or was at Kirie 1:14:02.013 --> 1:14:04.453 Clark's And you might know the answer to that should 1:14:04.453 --> 1:14:07.053 it come up on quizzes this day? And nineteen eighty 1:14:07.093 --> 1:14:10.493 two E t The extraterrestri of Lester in theaters. That 1:14:10.613 --> 1:14:16.053 is a movie I've never seen and I have zero 1:14:16.173 --> 1:14:22.053 interest in seeing it. I've seen stupid pictures of the 1:14:22.253 --> 1:14:24.453 creature in the bike basket, never liked any of it, 1:14:24.493 --> 1:14:30.973 But there we go was today in nineteen eighty two, 1:14:31.933 --> 1:14:35.253 forty one years ago. Do they ever do a remake? 1:14:35.293 --> 1:14:41.093 I don't know. So that's what's happening people. My name 1:14:41.173 --> 1:14:43.933 is Marcus Headled twelve, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty 1:14:44.613 --> 1:14:47.733 and nine nine two. By the way, Smith and Coey's 1:14:47.733 --> 1:14:52.613 will be closing now on June fifteen, that Sunday. He've's 1:14:52.653 --> 1:14:58.773 got four more days to go. It was supposed to 1:14:58.773 --> 1:15:02.213 go intill July thirty one, but most of the remaining 1:15:02.253 --> 1:15:06.653 stock has been sold and it's now full of empty shelves. 1:15:08.933 --> 1:15:11.253 So it seems as though the end of year sale 1:15:11.253 --> 1:15:14.973 went much better than they thought. Must have reduced the 1:15:15.013 --> 1:15:21.853 prices too much. Good selection of beauty, lingerie and shoes left, 1:15:23.813 --> 1:15:28.333 and a good range of men's were in store. Nice building. 1:15:28.373 --> 1:15:31.333 Don't know what's going to happen to it. That's Smith 1:15:31.373 --> 1:15:33.213 and Kay. That's your last chance. I ever wander around there. 1:15:33.213 --> 1:15:36.693 Although it looks pretty depressing. I thank the information about 1:15:36.733 --> 1:15:39.533 the train, Marcus. We can use wood and christ Church 1:15:39.573 --> 1:15:42.533 as long as it's burned in an approved log burner. 1:15:44.573 --> 1:15:46.333 Marc's a little bit of users. Shunt trainers hit a 1:15:46.373 --> 1:15:50.893 truck in Auckland. Thanks for that. Originally from Auckland, left 1:15:50.933 --> 1:15:53.413 having lived in two other cities in the North Island 1:15:53.773 --> 1:15:57.013 through my career. On returning from a three years overseas assignment, 1:15:57.613 --> 1:16:00.013 I settled into Needed eight years back. Best decision I 1:16:00.093 --> 1:16:02.373 ever made. It's big enough to have essential service, got 1:16:02.373 --> 1:16:05.693 a real vibrant seat and close enough to enjoy all 1:16:05.733 --> 1:16:14.613 that scent Tiger offers. Marcus good evening, Marcus and Daniel 1:16:14.613 --> 1:16:18.893 will change your mind when you see ET. I think 1:16:18.893 --> 1:16:22.253 you may love it. It's truty, magical. Well, if ET 1:16:22.413 --> 1:16:24.373 is so good, how come they've ever made a musical 1:16:24.373 --> 1:16:29.773 of it? I remember exactly where I was. I watched 1:16:29.773 --> 1:16:31.733 it was eleven years ago and it was shown on 1:16:31.773 --> 1:16:34.653 the Warnaka Town Hall, which was on the main street 1:16:34.693 --> 1:16:37.893 as you drove down the hill into town. We all 1:16:37.933 --> 1:16:42.413 sat on long wooden hall chairs. The train just went 1:16:42.493 --> 1:16:44.493 past here and in Vcargo. I love it and wish 1:16:44.533 --> 1:16:47.093 they would bring the Southerner back. Love your show, Melissa. 1:16:47.173 --> 1:16:50.213 Nice to hear from you, Melissa, I said.

Yeah, well that's not going 1:16:56.173 --> 1:16:59.093 to happen. I can tell you that now clearly only 1:16:59.093 --> 1:17:02.613 because no one would catch it and a Costa King's 1:17:02.693 --> 1:17:07.533 Ransom was changing platforms and the likes. But anyway, Marcus, 1:17:07.533 --> 1:17:09.213 we're currently living in the Bay of Plenty, but are 1:17:09.253 --> 1:17:16.253 planning to move to Opha. Wow.

And I would have brought 1:20:16.333 --> 1:20:17.093 firewood tonight. 1:20:18.653 --> 1:20:21.933 Yeah, it's that time, isn't it. How much how much 1:20:21.933 --> 1:20:22.653 you pay per meter? 1:20:24.573 --> 1:20:27.333 I just got two thirds, so I've got a third 1:20:27.333 --> 1:20:29.493 of Pine and as sead of Oregon and those one 1:20:29.573 --> 1:20:32.813 hundred and twenty five dollars. 1:20:33.053 --> 1:20:35.413 Okay, be cheaper than that in South. It'll be much 1:20:35.453 --> 1:20:37.053 cheaper in South. And way nice to hear from you. 1:20:37.093 --> 1:20:40.333 Thank you for that, Marcus. I've heard through Key. We 1:20:40.413 --> 1:20:43.253 were there doing a case study doing a train to Helensville. 1:20:43.693 --> 1:20:47.613 It'll be run by the Glenbrook Vintage Railway. I see 1:20:47.653 --> 1:20:51.933 there there is some sort of a advocacy to bring 1:20:51.973 --> 1:20:54.213 the train out. As far as who were Pie, I think, 1:20:55.533 --> 1:20:57.213 or coome you and who are Pie? They're almost the same. 1:20:57.333 --> 1:20:59.493 But I mean it works. It works if there's congestion. 1:21:00.333 --> 1:21:02.573 If there's congestion, a train works because it will beat 1:21:02.573 --> 1:21:05.733 the traffic. But there's no congestion between in v Cargo 1:21:05.853 --> 1:21:10.573 and Christian And the reality is when fablies go from 1:21:10.653 --> 1:21:15.653 Invacabo to christ Church, they want to have their car 1:21:15.693 --> 1:21:17.413 when they get there because they want to go into 1:21:17.533 --> 1:21:20.173 town and the train finishes way out in the WAPs. 1:21:20.973 --> 1:21:22.973 They want to go up to Hamner. They want to 1:21:22.973 --> 1:21:25.293 do all sorts of things. People don't want to travel 1:21:25.293 --> 1:21:29.413 without cars. And for those that do want to travel 1:21:29.413 --> 1:21:33.053 without cars, the backpackers or the elderly or kids, there's 1:21:33.093 --> 1:21:37.573 the bus there for them. Until the bus is jam packed. 1:21:37.653 --> 1:21:39.493 There's no point with the train. People don't get it. 1:21:39.493 --> 1:21:41.813 They've got a they've got they've got a strange romantic 1:21:41.933 --> 1:21:45.533 view of the railway. I love the railways, but a pragmatist, 1:21:47.453 --> 1:21:49.093 the one they want to concentrate on the moment is 1:21:49.093 --> 1:21:54.373 the one between Hamilton Auckland. That's going well. It's continuing 1:21:54.413 --> 1:21:56.213 to build and get more pesters in. They want the 1:21:56.253 --> 1:21:58.813 one from Todonger. They're the ones you want to focus on. 1:22:00.013 --> 1:22:06.773 Where there's areas of huge population and a huge amount 1:22:06.933 --> 1:22:10.573 of congestion on the roads. That's where you're training to 1:22:10.613 --> 1:22:13.653 going to work markets. Marcus, welcome, good evening. 1:22:15.653 --> 1:22:25.093 Hi there road rail bridges, Eh, yeah, I've I encountered 1:22:25.133 --> 1:22:30.333 one the many years back on a brass monkey motorcycle 1:22:30.373 --> 1:22:32.653 really to the South Island. I don't know if you've heard. 1:22:32.493 --> 1:22:33.173 Of such a thing. 1:22:33.533 --> 1:22:34.053 Yes I have. 1:22:35.653 --> 1:22:39.493 So we traveled from you know way wherever we were 1:22:40.373 --> 1:22:46.453 to the Iderburn Dam and oh, yep, that's the one. 1:22:47.933 --> 1:22:50.613 Coming in. We zig zagged but went over the Lewis 1:22:50.933 --> 1:22:56.293 up through McKenzie Country. I think coming into Hoka ticker 1:22:56.493 --> 1:22:58.133 was a bridge that had a. 1:22:58.213 --> 1:23:02.893 Train trace and that's now gone. That's how separated. Yep, 1:23:02.933 --> 1:23:04.733 that one's gone. 1:23:04.053 --> 1:23:08.613 Yes, well I I crashed on that due to the 1:23:08.693 --> 1:23:10.413 railway on my motorcycle. 1:23:11.053 --> 1:23:12.813 Dangerous, a terrible things. 1:23:12.893 --> 1:23:15.013 Oh it was like it was my poles, you know, 1:23:15.053 --> 1:23:17.093 I just did n counted such a thing. I thought, 1:23:17.133 --> 1:23:19.853 oh they're all you know, some of us and we 1:23:20.173 --> 1:23:24.053 zoom zooms are coming in and I said, ah, railway 1:23:24.093 --> 1:23:25.053 tracks from the middle. 1:23:24.813 --> 1:23:25.453 Of the bridge. 1:23:25.573 --> 1:23:27.453 There was a funky bridge too, with the you know, 1:23:27.613 --> 1:23:32.173 sort of the sides to it that looked a bit 1:23:32.253 --> 1:23:37.573 gothic and I've just had it wrong. My wheels dug 1:23:37.653 --> 1:23:42.293 into this thing. This is a good yarn actually, and 1:23:42.733 --> 1:23:45.453 my bike stabbed banging against the side of this when 1:23:45.493 --> 1:23:48.333 I had a tank bag on the motorcycle that jumped off, 1:23:49.573 --> 1:23:53.213 went down to this river below, floating off. I was 1:23:53.733 --> 1:23:57.013 bettered when my colleague stopped run down tried to retrieve 1:23:57.053 --> 1:24:00.413 my stuff. They had my fairy tickets, my wallet, everything, 1:24:00.493 --> 1:24:04.733 you know. Grass monkey entry still with me. 1:24:05.053 --> 1:24:06.853 Yep, it's good. 1:24:08.173 --> 1:24:10.413 Get down there. And there was a couple of dudes 1:24:10.493 --> 1:24:14.493 under the bridge there. There was an older guy and 1:24:14.533 --> 1:24:21.933 a young bloke almost web footed, and he said, ah whatever, 1:24:22.693 --> 1:24:25.173 and we're running after the thing. And he swung me 1:24:25.253 --> 1:24:28.373 up and got my bag back. God bless him come 1:24:28.453 --> 1:24:31.293 back and and he said what are you reackoning about? 1:24:31.373 --> 1:24:33.413 That's uncle Frank to the other guy and he said, 1:24:34.093 --> 1:24:38.413 where you got shrom? So you know, well we've come 1:24:38.453 --> 1:24:41.573 from Wellington, but you know I'm from Orphans and the 1:24:42.013 --> 1:24:45.133 wound and have ever been Uncle Wound and Uncle Frank 1:24:46.133 --> 1:24:53.493 his uncle nsaid are they they hung out there? They 1:24:53.693 --> 1:24:55.893 saved saved the day for me. They got I was 1:24:55.933 --> 1:24:57.973 a bit better than Bruce. My bike carried on. 1:24:58.053 --> 1:25:01.053 Of course the bike wasn't there make. 1:25:04.733 --> 1:25:08.493 That bike was a one hundred GB five hundred Ye? 1:25:11.373 --> 1:25:11.733 All right? 1:25:11.733 --> 1:25:13.613 Did you get? He scrambled these days? 1:25:13.813 --> 1:25:17.733 But it's luckily I haven't smashed it into any break. 1:25:18.213 --> 1:25:20.613 There is another road. There's one on the there's a 1:25:20.733 --> 1:25:24.893 road rail bridge and Hindon and the on the Tirie 1:25:24.973 --> 1:25:26.733 Gorge railway. That's the other one that you might have 1:25:26.773 --> 1:25:28.373 come across on your way to Tura. Who did you 1:25:28.413 --> 1:25:29.293 come across that one? 1:25:30.293 --> 1:25:32.933 And remember I think I might have Actually we did 1:25:33.573 --> 1:25:36.333 bit Yeah, so where. 1:25:37.773 --> 1:25:39.133 I could hear crickets in the background. 1:25:39.173 --> 1:25:42.973 Where are you Auckland? Auckland said, he mean this crickets 1:25:43.373 --> 1:25:44.733 and they've come under the hares. 1:25:44.533 --> 1:25:48.293 The buggers buggers. Evening, Richard, it's Marcus welcome. 1:25:49.613 --> 1:25:52.573 Yeah, hi, Marcus. You mentioned the new road that had 1:25:52.613 --> 1:25:56.853 opened today or yesterday. Why hasn't he got a toll moment? 1:25:57.133 --> 1:25:59.133 Because I think they kicked up Bobbsey dying den the 1:25:59.213 --> 1:26:02.653 verk and they had meetings in their campaigned to the 1:26:02.693 --> 1:26:04.413 government and they didn't have the guts to do it. 1:26:05.773 --> 1:26:05.973 Yeah. 1:26:05.973 --> 1:26:09.933 But you see, Torona has two toll roads. Hamilton has 1:26:09.973 --> 1:26:13.853 the expressway and there's no toll on that. Auckland has 1:26:13.893 --> 1:26:16.333 one in the north. I think there's a toll on that. 1:26:16.933 --> 1:26:19.293 But down here in toront we are two. 1:26:19.813 --> 1:26:23.373 Yeah. So you asked me why, and I told you 1:26:23.413 --> 1:26:25.733 they might best understand that's why they kicked up and 1:26:26.293 --> 1:26:28.893 might be a bad I think there's four toll roads 1:26:28.893 --> 1:26:31.253 in the country. 1:26:30.733 --> 1:26:33.893 Three one, two, three, I think, and we're going to 1:26:33.933 --> 1:26:37.293 get the fourth one with the toe Roung Northern Link. 1:26:39.933 --> 1:26:43.413 It just seems very very unfair that we're going to 1:26:43.533 --> 1:26:48.813 end up with three, Auckland one and nowhere else. 1:26:48.693 --> 1:26:49.453 Has a toll road. 1:26:50.013 --> 1:26:51.493 You could move to denner Vig. 1:26:52.613 --> 1:26:57.333 I have thought about moving, certainly have my boy. Yeah, yeah, 1:26:56.533 --> 1:27:03.293 it's a possibility. Yeah, but just just interested in my Okay. 1:27:03.413 --> 1:27:04.573 They kicked up the sync. 1:27:04.853 --> 1:27:06.933 Anyway, Yeah, that's why, and that's my saying. They kicked 1:27:06.973 --> 1:27:08.853 up a real stink. It was quite big on talkback 1:27:08.893 --> 1:27:13.653 as well. Owen good evening, Oh goody, hi, hi, Owen. 1:27:14.893 --> 1:27:18.893 I was talking about the rail is the subject is rail. 1:27:19.533 --> 1:27:21.613 Oh, the subject is all over the show tonight. But 1:27:21.693 --> 1:27:25.933 there was some discussion about rail and I see the 1:27:25.973 --> 1:27:28.333 Southerner will ever come back because there's no point to. 1:27:28.253 --> 1:27:30.013 It all right. 1:27:30.453 --> 1:27:34.773 Well E Cam was looking at a possible commuter system 1:27:34.813 --> 1:27:41.093 between Rangiora and Rollinster. Needs interesting track and they want 1:27:41.093 --> 1:27:43.093 to get it done within the next couple of years. 1:27:44.533 --> 1:27:46.333 The problem with that is a lot of the track 1:27:46.413 --> 1:27:50.693 is single and on the northern line, going through some 1:27:50.773 --> 1:27:54.373 of the richest suburbs Spendleton, you've only got a single 1:27:54.453 --> 1:27:58.253 track next to a bike path and they were talking 1:27:58.293 --> 1:28:03.093 at possibly wanting to double tracking. The other problem is 1:28:03.093 --> 1:28:07.053 that all the signaling has done from Wellington and they 1:28:07.093 --> 1:28:09.853 need to relocate it back to christ Church like they 1:28:09.933 --> 1:28:14.293 used to forty fifty years ago. One of the signaling 1:28:14.413 --> 1:28:17.013 was done at the old christ Church. 1:28:16.893 --> 1:28:21.053 Railway had still it with remote signaling, couldn't you. I 1:28:21.093 --> 1:28:22.213 don't know, okay. 1:28:23.933 --> 1:28:27.253 I was looking reading up the history of railways in 1:28:27.813 --> 1:28:32.013 christ Church and it was quite a system of track. 1:28:32.773 --> 1:28:37.133 They went to a little river, they went to Leaston, Southbridge, 1:28:37.973 --> 1:28:41.133 they went to Oxford, they went everywhere and they just 1:28:41.253 --> 1:28:45.253 ripped them up and I just thought, well, why in 1:28:45.333 --> 1:28:46.773 the resource that would have been. 1:28:47.613 --> 1:28:49.133 And not only did they rip them up on that, 1:28:49.173 --> 1:28:53.773 when the quake happened in christ Church, which was a 1:28:53.813 --> 1:28:57.933 great chance to rebuild, and they completely blew it. I 1:28:57.933 --> 1:29:00.573 remember speaking to the guy interviewing them who was behind 1:29:00.653 --> 1:29:03.973 the whole rebuilding of the NBC of christ Church, And 1:29:03.973 --> 1:29:06.773 the problem was, I don't think they had any idea 1:29:06.893 --> 1:29:08.413 or any faith in what they were doing. I don't 1:29:08.453 --> 1:29:11.653 think they realized how big christ Church was going to become. 1:29:12.133 --> 1:29:15.613 But they could have built a rapid rail system. They 1:29:15.653 --> 1:29:18.093 could have built a center based and it could have 1:29:18.173 --> 1:29:20.573 made I mean, Christchurch is a great place, don't get 1:29:20.573 --> 1:29:22.973 me wrong, but they blew it when it came to rail. 1:29:23.333 --> 1:29:25.453 I mean they had to rebuild the town anyway, why 1:29:25.493 --> 1:29:29.213 wouldn't you build an underground or a fast system. It 1:29:29.293 --> 1:29:31.093 was it was a complete dereliction. 1:29:32.493 --> 1:29:35.253 Well, the biggest mistake they made was moving the rail station. 1:29:35.813 --> 1:29:39.853 It was then moving the Northern line onto the main 1:29:40.013 --> 1:29:44.293 South when it used to connect to the Middleton line. Yeah, 1:29:44.613 --> 1:29:46.973 the stakes have been made and that's because of previous 1:29:47.053 --> 1:29:49.213 national governments doing this. 1:29:50.213 --> 1:29:53.573 Or because we know in the national governments are always 1:29:55.213 --> 1:29:58.293 very much supported by the road Transport Lobby. 1:29:58.893 --> 1:30:02.693 Yes, definitely, there's so many trucks on the road, especially 1:30:02.733 --> 1:30:07.933 when you're going to say, through Kaikoura, through what's the 1:30:08.533 --> 1:30:14.893 path that goes past hand the springs. Yes, trucks. Virtually 1:30:14.933 --> 1:30:20.693 a convoy of trucks. Billions of dollars spent on the 1:30:20.693 --> 1:30:23.693 city rail loop in Auckland. Well that could have been spent. 1:30:24.013 --> 1:30:26.653 Oh, don't get me wrong now, and that's a worthwhile thing. 1:30:26.653 --> 1:30:29.213 That's a great thing that's going to revolutionize Auckland. The 1:30:29.213 --> 1:30:34.213 thing is you can do both, Marcus, are we tippit? 1:30:34.333 --> 1:30:38.013 During the construction of the Tiahu Turanga the MNUA two 1:30:38.133 --> 1:30:43.853 Tallada Highway, workers on earthed moa bones. The discovery was 1:30:43.933 --> 1:30:49.533 made in twenty twenty one during excavation work. The bones, 1:30:49.573 --> 1:30:52.613 belonging to at least two smaller mora are found, along 1:30:52.653 --> 1:30:56.573 with other bird bones. The discovery significant because moa bones 1:30:56.613 --> 1:31:01.013 are rare fines and the site where they were found 1:31:01.053 --> 1:31:03.493 as expected to be of great significance for the region. 1:31:05.413 --> 1:31:08.173 Thank you for that. Maybe it's Marcus welcome, good evening. 1:31:09.293 --> 1:31:13.093 Yeah, good, Marcus has tiva the West coast here. Listen, 1:31:13.573 --> 1:31:16.253 I live in christ Church. But you know when they 1:31:16.493 --> 1:31:19.973 run the Coast to Coast. It goes to Graymouth and 1:31:20.133 --> 1:31:23.173 it stops at Graymouth for three hours or four hours, 1:31:23.173 --> 1:31:25.733 and then they get on the train again. And then 1:31:25.773 --> 1:31:29.893 they go through Mowana and you know Lake Brunner. 1:31:31.573 --> 1:31:32.373 Through Tira. 1:31:34.133 --> 1:31:38.053 There's there's a railway line from Graymouth to Hoker Ticker 1:31:38.813 --> 1:31:43.693 and it goes over the Tira Macair which is another bridge. 1:31:44.213 --> 1:31:46.893 It's got a railway line in it. And then they 1:31:46.893 --> 1:31:52.213 go down to Errahua, you know, getting towards Hoker Ticker 1:31:52.493 --> 1:31:56.653 and there's another one there. But I don't know why 1:31:56.973 --> 1:32:02.693 the railways don't run the Coast to Coast to Hoka Ticker. 1:32:02.773 --> 1:32:08.293 You know, Hoka Ticket is a more lovely place than 1:32:08.453 --> 1:32:13.213 Graymouth for tourists because you can go and do a 1:32:13.293 --> 1:32:15.493 lot down the Hope to Taggy like. You've got the 1:32:15.613 --> 1:32:20.493 Jade fat Tree, the Greenstone fat Tree, you got souvenir shops, 1:32:20.533 --> 1:32:24.413 you've got lovely restaurants. And I come from Graymouth. I 1:32:24.453 --> 1:32:27.733 was born and bred in Graymouth, and I just don't 1:32:28.133 --> 1:32:31.933 don't know why they don't use that line because it's 1:32:31.933 --> 1:32:36.573 only they only use it. The railways only use it 1:32:36.693 --> 1:32:43.173 for Fhill two south like to Hope Beca. You know, 1:32:43.293 --> 1:32:47.773 they have their tankers on a on a rail on 1:32:47.813 --> 1:32:52.253 the rail line, you know, and that's all it's used for. 1:32:53.453 --> 1:32:57.733 And you know, there's a lot more to the West 1:32:57.733 --> 1:33:01.173 Coast than just going to Graymouth. That's what I'm saying. 1:33:02.613 --> 1:33:05.293 I think, I think, I think the problem with the Transalpine, 1:33:05.373 --> 1:33:08.573 right is those people go from christ Church to Greymouth 1:33:08.733 --> 1:33:12.693 and Beck in the day. It's a really long day. Yeah, 1:33:12.773 --> 1:33:15.533 I know, but that's the trouble with it. And by 1:33:15.573 --> 1:33:20.093 the way, with those bridges you mentioned, right, yeah, they 1:33:20.093 --> 1:33:23.053 are now separate. They're not road rail bridges anymore. 1:33:24.133 --> 1:33:24.613 Aren't they. 1:33:24.813 --> 1:33:30.613 No, I thought that, Tira mckel No, No, it's all 1:33:31.293 --> 1:33:32.373 they're all separate now. 1:33:33.733 --> 1:33:35.933 Oh well, that's better because I. 1:33:35.893 --> 1:33:38.013 Remember it used to be on that movie Goodbye pork Pie. 1:33:38.053 --> 1:33:39.653 I think it was on that and the train came 1:33:39.693 --> 1:33:41.773 down there on that. Yeah, and that was a legendary 1:33:41.853 --> 1:33:46.813 kind of scene. Harry Harry, Yeah, great movie. Ye, that's 1:33:46.853 --> 1:33:47.213 that you're. 1:33:48.693 --> 1:33:52.053 Yeah, No, I'm on board and bred West Coaster. 1:33:52.093 --> 1:33:54.493 But it sounds like it sounds like you should get 1:33:54.533 --> 1:33:54.973 back there. 1:33:56.213 --> 1:34:01.133 I am. I'm going back. I'm going to go bush 1:34:01.133 --> 1:34:04.133 them and build a log cabin in the bush and 1:34:05.413 --> 1:34:06.173 a lifestyle. 1:34:07.253 --> 1:34:08.013 When are you going to do it? 1:34:08.053 --> 1:34:08.293 TV? 1:34:10.253 --> 1:34:14.333 Oh, well, there's not many years left in me now. 1:34:16.253 --> 1:34:19.573 But I used to work for the Dominion Brewers and 1:34:19.693 --> 1:34:25.133 gray Mouth, Yeah, and I used to go.

The rail tank's 1:37:41.253 --> 1:37:43.133 going to Hooker tick are not fuel but raw milk 1:37:43.173 --> 1:37:44.973 for the dairy company.

Never 1:37:51.093 --> 1:37:53.853 mind the butter? How are coffee drinkers handling? How are 1:37:53.893 --> 1:37:58.173 coffee drinkers handling the price hikes? Probably the same as 1:37:58.253 --> 1:38:07.013 chocolate lovers who can't afford a decent sugar fix the situation. 1:38:07.133 --> 1:38:12.813 I tell you what's up in price, butter, coffee, chocolate, 1:38:14.253 --> 1:38:24.813 olive oil, all because of the extreme climate.

How's it all going? 1:38:43.373 --> 1:38:45.173 I really thought t Bone was going to name every 1:38:45.173 --> 1:38:48.373 pub between Carameir and Hearst. Thought I could have done 1:38:48.373 --> 1:38:53.733 better than them. He didn't get fat Toty. Seemed like 1:38:53.773 --> 1:38:56.213 it'd be quite a good job for t Bone doing 1:38:56.253 --> 1:39:02.133 up pubs. Brilliant. Apparently someone taxi is a paper hanger 1:39:02.173 --> 1:39:05.813 as well, So the why isn't it? Oh wait one 1:39:05.853 --> 1:39:09.253 hundred and eighty nine nine to detect monument. Someone talked 1:39:09.253 --> 1:39:12.853 earlier on about the Casker Tears new series of that. 1:39:15.333 --> 1:39:16.813 Good on them for keeping going to tell you what 1:39:16.853 --> 1:39:20.333 must be a tough year for them, the courts and 1:39:20.373 --> 1:39:28.093 all that when it's your business. So The Field Days 1:39:28.173 --> 1:39:32.573 is on from today until the fourteenth. A Mystery Creek 1:39:33.373 --> 1:39:35.013 for those who don't know. Mystery Creek used to be 1:39:36.013 --> 1:39:37.893 history Mystery Creek quite interesting. It used to be a 1:39:37.973 --> 1:39:42.213 dumping ground for old World War two aeroplanes. Yep, that's right, 1:39:44.053 --> 1:39:49.293 I've learned that from this show. Now there is rainfall 1:39:49.493 --> 1:39:53.013 snowfall warnings for Porters Pass and Linda's Pass and the 1:39:53.093 --> 1:39:58.173 Crown Range overnight from tonight this day. In two thousand 1:39:58.213 --> 1:40:03.733 and two, American idol dabude and this year in nineteen 1:40:03.773 --> 1:40:10.133 eighty two, et was released in the one of those 1:40:10.173 --> 1:40:12.253 movies I've never seen. By the way, too, Smith and 1:40:12.293 --> 1:40:15.533 Curri's is closing earlier than it should because the sale 1:40:15.573 --> 1:40:19.133 has been so successful. You might want to let me 1:40:19.213 --> 1:40:22.853 know how that went for you. What did you buy? 1:40:23.293 --> 1:40:30.973 They've got linge or a left shoes and men's wear. Well, 1:40:31.013 --> 1:40:32.373 I hate to say, but I always thought the men's 1:40:32.373 --> 1:40:40.093 were there was particularly a particularly weed selection, and I 1:40:40.133 --> 1:40:41.813 for thought that might be one of their problems was 1:40:41.853 --> 1:40:48.653 the choice of men's We didn't really resonate. It never 1:40:48.813 --> 1:40:50.813 was never quitch for what market they were going for. 1:40:51.293 --> 1:40:54.573 Like this, it's always changes though, doesn't it? Maybe that 1:40:54.653 --> 1:40:55.613 they knew that better? 1:40:56.293 --> 1:40:56.533 Yeah? 1:40:56.533 --> 1:40:58.853 Interesting, I wonder what the price of railway sleepers was 1:40:59.773 --> 1:41:02.453 because a while there that everyone was redoing their gardens 1:41:02.453 --> 1:41:04.773 with the railway sleepers, weren't they That was a great thing. 1:41:05.733 --> 1:41:08.013 That's a dugable, all those railway lines in the eighties 1:41:08.053 --> 1:41:11.053 and the seventies, and there must have been garden centers 1:41:11.053 --> 1:41:12.853 full of railway seeds. Now they're very hard to get 1:41:12.893 --> 1:41:18.133 one hundred dollars each for a railway sleeper. There must 1:41:18.173 --> 1:41:21.173 have been millions of them gone through into garden centers 1:41:21.213 --> 1:41:24.653 for people to do kind of there gardens in their villas. 1:41:24.693 --> 1:41:26.253 While am I talking about that? I quite like a 1:41:26.293 --> 1:41:29.573 dis case about railway sleepers. Also, people moving from the 1:41:29.573 --> 1:41:31.013 north end to the south under. We want to re 1:41:31.213 --> 1:41:32.933 address all the top I don't know what you want tonight. 1:41:33.333 --> 1:41:38.733 It is a full moon and it's cold. There's also 1:41:38.773 --> 1:41:44.853 the situation with seals, the seal silly season. They're all 1:41:44.893 --> 1:41:48.173 coming ashore and nesting. I quite know what they're doing, 1:41:49.253 --> 1:41:52.813 but yeah, it's the silly season, they say. I know 1:41:52.893 --> 1:41:55.893 there was that one seal that got hugely upstream on 1:41:55.933 --> 1:41:58.373 the Kluther was up as far as the to a 1:41:58.413 --> 1:42:02.693 pack of punt I don't know what the fourth inland 1:42:02.733 --> 1:42:04.733 a seal would be. That might be something that someone's 1:42:04.733 --> 1:42:08.413 got some information about. Yes, I'm after your calls tonight. People, 1:42:09.253 --> 1:42:13.013 You've got something of interest to say, And I guess 1:42:13.093 --> 1:42:15.413 the definition of that is what is interesting. Well, remember 1:42:15.413 --> 1:42:18.013 there's others listening, but it might be more interesting than 1:42:18.093 --> 1:42:19.533 me banging on. So if you don't want to talk tonight, 1:42:19.533 --> 1:42:22.173 it'd be good to hear from you. There's something different 1:42:22.173 --> 1:42:24.293 you want to mention. What is that? People get in touch? 1:42:25.093 --> 1:42:30.133 Oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty you can tell me 1:42:30.173 --> 1:42:34.333 the reason why I should go see et. Well, they 1:42:34.333 --> 1:42:35.933 wouldn't be going to see it, would you. You'd be 1:42:35.933 --> 1:42:39.653 actually watching it on YouTube. I presume he says a 1:42:39.653 --> 1:42:41.573 few of those movies I've never seen, But after a 1:42:41.613 --> 1:42:44.213 while you kind of think, oh, well, actually I've missed 1:42:44.253 --> 1:42:48.053 the boat on that one. Auckland to getting electric ferries 1:42:48.053 --> 1:42:57.093 for Devonport and for Half Moon Bay. They look all right. 1:43:01.693 --> 1:43:05.293 They're made locally, which I thought was quite interesting. I 1:43:05.333 --> 1:43:08.173 think some of them are made of and nui and 1:43:08.253 --> 1:43:10.093 some of them are diesel electric. I'm not in Kylie 1:43:10.133 --> 1:43:14.413 sure how that works, but I think they've got international 1:43:14.493 --> 1:43:15.973 orders for those. And maybe that's our new thing, that 1:43:16.093 --> 1:43:24.693 Hamilton Jet engines in them, carbon fiber composite. It's exciting. 1:43:32.133 --> 1:43:33.733 Maybe they have the battery, maybe the batteries to get 1:43:33.813 --> 1:43:37.613 charged and put on shore. I don't fully know all 1:43:37.613 --> 1:43:39.333 the details about that one. But anyway, if you don't 1:43:39.333 --> 1:43:43.293 want to talk Marcus till twelve, good evening, Mary, It's Marcus. Welcome. 1:43:44.493 --> 1:43:49.493 Hi Marcus. I just wanted to talk about one of 1:43:49.533 --> 1:44:01.413 my favorite programs on TV. Yes, I'm hearing yourself on 1:44:01.413 --> 1:44:03.573 the radio. I can't reach down there. I'll lose my 1:44:03.613 --> 1:44:04.693 hot water bottle if I do. 1:44:04.893 --> 1:44:08.173 Okay, well I can see that set up now, yep. 1:44:09.493 --> 1:44:14.533 God, And it's absolutely and today was one of the 1:44:14.533 --> 1:44:19.053 best this evening. It's a better fellow called Drew Pritchard. 1:44:19.253 --> 1:44:20.853 Oh you Drew and Tea. 1:44:21.973 --> 1:44:28.453 Oh yeah, well they had. 1:44:28.173 --> 1:44:29.333 Love it, love it. 1:44:30.133 --> 1:44:33.053 Oh got on you, got on you. I know there's 1:44:33.093 --> 1:44:36.333 another man somewhere. He couldn't something went wrong with the 1:44:36.373 --> 1:44:41.853 programs a couple of weeks ago, and and he but anyway, 1:44:42.853 --> 1:44:45.573 Oh it's exquisite. And some of the houses they visits, 1:44:45.653 --> 1:44:49.973 and but this was all about he picked up these 1:44:50.213 --> 1:44:55.933 beautiful antiques. God go into these big fancy houses, and 1:44:55.973 --> 1:44:58.813 he says wildly as a fox. He knows exactly what 1:44:58.893 --> 1:45:02.333 he's doing. But it's so engaged, you know, every the 1:45:02.373 --> 1:45:02.893 whole thing. 1:45:04.973 --> 1:45:07.373 Although I am I am reading somewhere that he's lost 1:45:07.373 --> 1:45:11.133 all his money. Drew brought some big flesh house to 1:45:11.173 --> 1:45:14.333 try and renovate and it didn't work out for him. 1:45:14.573 --> 1:45:18.773 Now I know. Yeah, it's hard to know, because it's 1:45:18.813 --> 1:45:20.213 hard to know. If you're seeing a current of an 1:45:20.253 --> 1:45:23.293 old TV series, I can never keep up. Sometimes I've 1:45:23.293 --> 1:45:26.333 seen them before. It's always quite complicated. But yeah, I 1:45:26.373 --> 1:45:28.453 wouldn't mind it a bit more of an update what's happening, 1:45:28.573 --> 1:45:30.573 because for a while their tea wasn't there on the 1:45:30.653 --> 1:45:31.653 show that he was back of it. 1:45:31.813 --> 1:45:35.973 Wasn't he Yes, so I noticed that, and somebody else was. 1:45:36.213 --> 1:45:38.853 And then those guys he has working for him that 1:45:38.973 --> 1:45:42.413 do out all that, they're just you know, it's just 1:45:42.573 --> 1:45:44.733 the whole, the whole thing. And of course you see 1:45:44.773 --> 1:45:47.973 all the countryside.

I was in Auckland twenty 1:46:54.693 --> 1:46:58.893 seven years, which is too long for anybody to live there. 1:46:59.173 --> 1:47:01.133 Are you are you? Are you older than twenty seven? 1:47:02.213 --> 1:47:03.533 I'm a lot older than twenty seven. 1:47:03.533 --> 1:47:05.373 Okay, yep, okay, I understand, yep. 1:47:05.893 --> 1:47:06.253 Yeah. 1:47:07.693 --> 1:47:11.813 And so I was struggling an often for a few years, 1:47:11.893 --> 1:47:14.893 and I knew I needed to make some changes, but 1:47:14.973 --> 1:47:17.373 I had trouble just working out what to do and 1:47:17.413 --> 1:47:22.773 how to do it. And so I did it. In February. 1:47:23.253 --> 1:47:29.053 I finished my full time job and I started to 1:47:29.093 --> 1:47:33.253 get my house ready to go into the market, and 1:47:33.373 --> 1:47:37.653 I found a townhouse to rent here in christ Church, 1:47:38.613 --> 1:47:44.173 and so I moved down in February. It's just me. 1:47:44.693 --> 1:47:48.653 I'm single with no kids. The cat flew down with 1:47:48.693 --> 1:47:52.973 me and she's down here with me, and yeah, it's 1:47:53.013 --> 1:47:57.413 good here. It's definitely a change from what I'm used to. 1:47:58.413 --> 1:48:01.373 That's what I wanted. So it's working out quite well. 1:48:02.653 --> 1:48:06.333 So my first South Island winter and Yep. It's cold, 1:48:07.253 --> 1:48:10.973 but not unbearable by any means. But yeah, it's colder 1:48:11.013 --> 1:48:12.493 than the North Island ever. 1:48:12.733 --> 1:48:15.093 Was I think it takes two I think it takes 1:48:15.093 --> 1:48:18.013 two years to get used to the climate change. 1:48:18.373 --> 1:48:22.253 Okay, yeah that sounds of that, right. Yeah, so this 1:48:22.333 --> 1:48:25.773 is this one my first experience of the cold winter, 1:48:26.253 --> 1:48:28.573 and yeah, we'll see how it goes from here. 1:48:29.013 --> 1:48:31.533 Did you sell the house at Upland, Jared? 1:48:32.613 --> 1:48:36.693 Yep, it's sold a few weeks after I moved down. 1:48:36.973 --> 1:48:39.413 Because that's quite a fun Did you think twice about that? 1:48:39.453 --> 1:48:41.413 Do you think maybe I'm not going to sell it 1:48:41.493 --> 1:48:44.173 until I've made the decision, because then you can't go back. 1:48:44.053 --> 1:48:52.093 Or I changed my mind so many times about selling 1:48:52.173 --> 1:48:54.853 the house. How am I going to do this? Should 1:48:54.853 --> 1:48:58.573 I find a job first somewhere and then sell the 1:48:58.613 --> 1:49:03.653 house or do it pretty much the opposite way, And 1:49:03.733 --> 1:49:06.613 so it's a bit of a risk. But how also 1:49:06.933 --> 1:49:10.653 quite quickly, I didn't get a great price for it, 1:49:11.813 --> 1:49:15.853 but I did it to move on with my life, 1:49:16.013 --> 1:49:20.413 not to get this price for it. So yeah, it's 1:49:20.413 --> 1:49:22.573 all working out quite well. I've just got to find 1:49:22.573 --> 1:49:23.453 a job now, but. 1:49:26.453 --> 1:49:27.413 It people in christ Church. 1:49:28.493 --> 1:49:29.453 I've got family here. 1:49:30.173 --> 1:49:32.493 Yep, yep?
