00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:07,320
Speaker 2: I did, Yes, I was involved in that.

4
00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:10,720
Speaker 1: So this was the second practice, so I understand it

5
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:15,720
Speaker 1: of our swinking new emergency operation center, and you're assimilating

6
00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:17,720
Speaker 1: what would we do if there was a five meter

7
00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:18,960
Speaker 1: tsunami coming our way?

8
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:22,079
Speaker 2: Ye, for the coast of South America. So we're just

9
00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:24,000
Speaker 2: getting ready for that and working out what we do

10
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:25,520
Speaker 2: to keep people safe basically.

11
00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:27,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, So we've got a pretty good handle on

12
00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:29,479
Speaker 1: where all the district's kayaks are.

13
00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:31,960
Speaker 2: Now, yeah, where we were?

14
00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:34,920
Speaker 1: Yeah right, Well that fills me with confidence, to be fair.

15
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:37,520
Speaker 1: Have you got your survival kit at the ready at home?

16
00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:38,199
Speaker 2: I do?

17
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:41,160
Speaker 1: Actually, after all this, so you do, I do. Yeah.

18
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:43,360
Speaker 2: I've been involved in this long enough that I've got

19
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:46,720
Speaker 2: all the food that I don't particularly like. You know

20
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:49,280
Speaker 2: that I'm not you know, I'm not tempted to steal

21
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:50,560
Speaker 2: out of the stash.

22
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:52,560
Speaker 1: You know what our issue is? It was two for

Speaker 1: survival cat in. The tents are in there, which is

27
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 1: probably quite good to keep things turning over. But now
