Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:07):
You're listening to the Marcus lush Night's podcast from News Talks.

Speaker 2 (00:11):
I'd be.

Speaker 3 (00:12):
Welcome and good evening, a relieved Marcus. That's me here tonight.
I had a slightly slightly complicated start to my shift tonight.
I got home and shucked my jings in the wash
front loader and they had a bath, and got to
get up the bath and get ready for work. I
couldn't find my keys, and of course they were in
the front loader, and I'm new to the front loader.

(00:34):
It was full of water. It was a mid cycle.
It was a two hour, fifteen minute cycle, so I
couldn't get the keys out. I presume they were there.
I looked everywhere else, and I presume they're in the
washing machine, but they were. I don't quite know how
I manage to get it out. I must it must
have there must be. I just kind of pushed the
button play it like an accordion, and it must have
drained out because I did it. Did manage to open it,
managed to unlock the front loader after about ten minutes,

(00:58):
but the keys were in there. The keys had been
in there in about an hour and a half cycle
or how long was the bath, maybe half an hour,
but some extra time as well. So yeah, so that
was a real situation. So I've got my keys out,
are they still work? So I don't know if there's
anything I should do with my keys? Are they going
to should I put them in?

Speaker 4 (01:14):
Right?

Speaker 3 (01:14):
So they're going to rust overnight?

Speaker 2 (01:15):
Well?

Speaker 3 (01:15):
They because I'm going away tomorrow. I don't want the
car to sort of close down on me. So if
anyone knows anything about keys, I know there's actual key
you can pull out from it, but it's still a
bit sketchy. I just like a key in the car
that works. I prefer nothing with batteries or wires because
everyone from time to time is going to put their
keys in the washing machine? Aren't they in the front loader?

(01:37):
So you've re panicked about that. So that's what's happened
to me. And I thought, well, I'm going to Ring
and I can't make it to work. You, I can't
get moved. But I managed to get here in time,
were well within time, and we run on quite a
tight margin in this job. I like to be here
half an hour beforehand or whatever. But gee, boy, oh boy,
no room for error. And I couldn't have lot my cars,

(01:58):
my car keys and the pass of the swipe card
for work was in the car. I think I can
get an Uber because we've got Uber in and the
cargo for about a week, but that's gonna be late
and I'm not gonna have my key or my swipe card.
So anyway, once I finally did extricate the car keys
from the front loader, they did work. So I get

(02:21):
my swipe card to where it just shows what a
disaster the modern world isn't it. He's self locking cars
and keys that aren't waterproof and anyway, so I've.

Speaker 5 (02:31):
Got to work.

Speaker 3 (02:31):
I wasn't quite sure how I could dry I wasn't
quite sure what I could use at work to dry
out my keys. No rice at work. So that's me,
I mean, the scheme of things. I mean, it's not
the worst start to a day in life, but it
was a it was a difficult one. Now ten past eight,
that's the situation there for me. So it wasn't good.
It wasn't good at all. By the way, South, I

(02:54):
are gett an old fashioned coaching lesson from Tasman. Of
course they have the shield this year South, but now
they're down seven to forty one. That's tasmint halftime, so
they're getting into hiding. So that's what's happening at the moment.
But if you want to get on here tonight, if
you've got some advice, wobout those keys too. Are they
going to be okay? Or should I do something with them? Yeah?

(03:19):
Jumping if you want to talk, eight hundred and eighty,
ten eighty and nine to nine to detext here till midnight,
so do get in touch. By the way, the whole
of Lotto will be down for a bit from Sunday
evening to Monday afternoon, just so you know. You've been
pre warned about that. So that's happening. Also too, there's
been a rollout for restrictions for teenagers across Facebook about

(03:43):
time they're doing this, so that's what's happening, so should
wed The company Menaces will write restrictions for teenage across
Facebook and message you from today, but critics say that
doesn't go fair enough In cook curbing hard harmful content.
Yeap tin accounts are automately private, with the ability of

(04:07):
users to restrict two can message them. Notifications are muted
from ten PM, and harmful content is restricted. Those over
sixteen can opt out, while under sixteen need their parents
consent to opt out the feature of parents can choose
to see you as messaging or to set daily time limits,
and the block keep teens from using Instagram, Facebook and
Messenger overnight. Yeah, so ten accounts are really lynched launched

(04:32):
for Instagram with the other year across Facebook and Messager
in the UK, US, Australia. So we're just catching up,
by the way in the U. By the way, in Australia,
from ten December, they'll ban under sixteen from accessing social
media and its on the companies themselves to prevent their access.
So yeah, we should be doing that and hopefully they'll
see sense and do that also. So that's something you

(04:53):
might want to mention tonight. Also to social media happening,
but Friday free for all, what's tepening in your neckthoord.
Bearing in mind there are strong wins for parts of
Southern and central news in and across the weekend. I'll
keep you updated with that. I'll keep you updated with sport.
As I've warned you, we have got the NRL semi
final or whatever they call it, the preliminary final tonight.
It's pretty much the same is that we're down to

(05:14):
four teams. I think Cronula the Sharks go against Melbourne tonight.
I'll keep you a cross that also, So, yes, that's
the rush start for me. Be in touch if you
want to, oh eight hundred and eighty ten eighty nine
nine two to text, if you want to come through. Yeah, no,

(05:40):
not no to that, Dan, But if you want to
start the whole discussion going on about keys and if
you put electronic keys in the washing machine, will they
be ruined? It's the last thing I want on a
Friday night. And how would you drive them? Would you
put them in rice? Oruld you do something else with them?
I don't know the answer that, but you might. It
would be good to hear from you if there's something

(06:00):
else you want to talk about tonight. As I say,
by the way, the whole six seven thing, if someone
could explain that. I've noticed the kids are saying that.
I don't even know what it is. But when you
say six, you say seven. So that's happening at the
stage Dan, for that six seven, I don't know what

(06:21):
that is. But the teachers don't like it. But the
teachers just start saying themselves. I'm sure the pupils will
stop saying it too. It's called the six seven trend
or six seven. I don't even know what it does.
I think when someone says six, someone says seven. Got

(06:43):
no idea the way'd say that, But the kid seem
to love it. It's all come from TikTok or something.
So there we go. But anyway, I'm looking forward to
your calls on anything. As you say, hit till midnight tonight,
eight hundred and eighty toy A nine two nine to detext. Yes,
it has been a bit of a a chaotic start
for my evening. I like to normally be here and

(07:04):
calm and do my meditation. Oh Marcus, I find it
strange you don't have a spear set of keys. Oh
that's a good pop point. No NRL schools tonight, please,
Mark is always a great show. Someone are driving home
from Big Jay the Trail. Unfortunately, I've got to give
out the NRL scores. That's something that's part of my job. Unfortunately,

(07:27):
I'll warn you before I'm putting them out there. Might
hear from you, David Biggs at the Benny. Oh, but
get in touch you on to be a part of
the show. Is I try and get my calm back
to be. International news happening tonight, no doubt, And I'll

(07:48):
get you updated with that throughout the next four hours.
But wouldn't mind if you've got someone Hey, they're still
in found that guy that's missing in Australia, have they?
I was thinking about that last night. I mean, he
no longer might be he might no longer be alive,
but that's unbelievable. It must have about three or four
weeks he's been on the run. So yeah, they've gone

(08:11):
quiet on that. There's no more news about that. Oh well,
there's anything about that or anything else that will keep
you updated on that. By the way, fifteen past eight,
looking forward to your calls. By the way, Donald Trump
and his wife Malania have been caught having a feud
on Marine one through the windows. He's pointing and she's gesticulating.

(08:36):
He's waving a finger at the wife, and the first
lady's shaking her head for no surprise. Is there anyway?
Looking forward to your calls? You want to start the
whole discussion tonight, as I say, oh, eight hundred and
eighty ten eighty and nine two nine two detect there
might be something else you want to get going with tonight.
I don't know what it is at the stage. I'm
off my spot south and fourteen Tasman forty one south

(09:01):
and twenty one.

Speaker 6 (09:02):
Now is it.

Speaker 3 (09:05):
Nineteen kicked a car? So it's on the comeback. Well
that's exciting, so you never know. Seems like it might
be okay that one anyway, seventeen past night past eight
looking forty your calls nineteen past eight. If you want
to be a part of an eight hundred and eighty
ten eighty en, this is Marcus welcome. I like that.

(09:26):
That's a good start. Hello, Hi, and it's Marcus welcome.

Speaker 7 (09:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (09:31):
Sorry, trying to do these things at once, they ain't work.
You made me think the other day I filled up
my vent with diesel, but I was actually ninety five
and it took me a while before I figured it out,
maybe three kilometers, but yeah, five hundred bucks later we
managed to say it was all right.

Speaker 3 (09:53):
So you've got a diesel car and you put ninety
one on it? Is that right?

Speaker 9 (09:58):
Yeah?

Speaker 8 (09:59):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (10:00):
Is that better than having a petrol car and putting
diesel in?

Speaker 9 (10:04):
I don't know. I think so.

Speaker 3 (10:08):
I think one of them is really bad. So what
was it? Did you have to drain that. Did you
go to a mechanic?

Speaker 9 (10:14):
Yeah, next door neighbor he he he drained it and
then put theesels through and the way it went, he said,
it didn't like it, but it came right. Yeah was
the was?

Speaker 3 (10:27):
It was the tank empty when you folded?

Speaker 8 (10:30):
Yeah? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (10:32):
And how how did it go?

Speaker 10 (10:33):
For?

Speaker 3 (10:34):
How did it go for those three k's?

Speaker 9 (10:37):
Well, it went sweet and then I had lots of
power okay, as as the petrol came through, you know,
and then I knew it suddenly.

Speaker 4 (10:48):
Dawned on me.

Speaker 9 (10:49):
It was like Monday morning. I was on my way
to a door, you know, only he had pulled over,
and of course there's a logging truck right up your
number plate sort of thing coming up behind you. Fully lad. Anyway,
that's another thing.

Speaker 8 (11:04):
But you made me think, are you in a the
cargole bluff?

Speaker 9 (11:09):
Oh that's pretty rare. Yeah, okay, hey, missing persons you
were talking about. Yes, I'm in Towong. And he used
to be a chap that lived on a boat next
to us in the marina. His name was Butler, and
I don't know if you've heard Butler, but he had

(11:29):
a boat called Blazing shades, which was about a sixty
five foot aluminium catch that he designed and built himself
with his little hand. And he lived between Funga and
Trong probably for the last eighteen years, and about I

(11:50):
don't know, six months ago was reported missing. He used
to be in the barrieres.

Speaker 3 (11:57):
I remember reading about that.

Speaker 9 (11:59):
Nobody's seen him since, so I hope he's all right.

Speaker 3 (12:02):
And they haven't seen the vessel either.

Speaker 9 (12:05):
No, And it's like, yeah, you couldn't miss it. You know,
it's a black catch with flames down the side of it. Yeah,
in high gloss black.

Speaker 4 (12:16):
It's a beautiful boat.

Speaker 3 (12:19):
I would have thought if there was a boat missing
that about looking for that and this is got it
was was an ocean going vessel.

Speaker 7 (12:25):
Yeah, well it was.

Speaker 9 (12:28):
I don't know how ocean going it was, but it
was a big vessel.

Speaker 3 (12:33):
They could have gone up to the islands, could.

Speaker 9 (12:34):
He Yeah, but he never had any He's like, if
he's missing, they would have known if he got kept
one and left, you know, with his passport and all that. Yeah. Yeah,
but yeah, so I don't.

Speaker 3 (12:50):
Know as five hundred bucks. If it wasn't your neighbor,
it would have cost a lot more than five Hundrey
would it?

Speaker 9 (12:57):
Well, you know what the mate to light everybody's his
eye that it costs me fifteen hundred bats. The bottom
lip was doing a.

Speaker 3 (13:06):
Yeah, bad start to the bad start to the weekend.
That's this week, is it?

Speaker 11 (13:11):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (13:12):
Yeah?

Speaker 9 (13:12):
No, no three weeks ago.

Speaker 3 (13:14):
Yeah, good story like it in. I wouldn't mind talking
aout there. I thought I thought there were things to
stop you putting on. There's something on the diesel to
stop it putting in. I think diesel in the petrol
cars is worse. Is it something to let me know?
The be have mechanic out there? Do you want to
get in touch? Twenty four past eight? As I get
on the spot gradually slowly, do come through anything? Oh,

(13:35):
by the way, here's a question for you. I've got
kids and started cooking.

Speaker 12 (13:39):
What do you w w whoa who who?

Speaker 13 (13:41):
What?

Speaker 11 (13:41):
What?

Speaker 2 (13:41):
What?

Speaker 14 (13:41):
Who?

Speaker 13 (13:41):
Who?

Speaker 3 (13:41):
What? Do you get ovenments for kids? Are they special
kids ovenments? We haven't got any ovenments, so we always
do it two teetwels. But it's quite hard for kids.
So yeah, I'm curious to know about that. I'm sure
I could google that, but you might have some experience.
It's been quite a productive first week of the school holidays.
I think we've done it all actually second but we

(14:07):
just plug them into the games. I think that's what
I feel like. M'm joking. Get in touch of your
talk on air, as I'm saying, oh, eight hundred eighty
ten eighty and nine, to keep those texts coming. This
is your last day to text. We're getting a brand
new text machine on Monday. You Margie, get these last
day's texts for free. Probably won't, but you'll be curious.

Speaker 15 (14:26):
Yep.

Speaker 3 (14:27):
Anyway, do come through. Oh, by the way, that TV
and did presenter Jenny Sol she's had a baby, a
long and difficult battle within fertility. That's the news today.
So that's happened. Pretty sweet looking child. Do oh, that's

(14:47):
come through the Woman's Day. So it's probably about a
week or two old, I would imagine with that one.
Any who, welcome to it. Oh eight hundred eighty ten
eighty and nine two nine to text. The other story
that's out there, according to the Post, this is the
whole thing for Blenham pushing for the inter Island ferry
to go there. Yep, I don't know if that's going

(15:09):
to be a thing or not. Actually, Donna, this is Marcus. Welcome,
Hi Marcus.

Speaker 16 (15:14):
I've only just tuned in, but I heard you saying
about oven mits for kids school holidays. You can make
some after a book to the op shop.

Speaker 3 (15:21):
It's not a bad idea, is it.

Speaker 17 (15:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 16 (15:24):
You just get some old blankets, chop off the blankets
to make them several sick gets by and at the
shop get some old curtains, but make sure they're not
pleased obviously that good sticks linen or cotton curtains, and
you just literally long rectangles blankets for like little mittens
on the ends. As it were really simple. The kids
can make their own and then.

Speaker 3 (15:44):
Go baky, gosh, you're good, donna.

Speaker 16 (15:49):
Oh it's so much fun.

Speaker 3 (15:50):
Yeah, it will be what material's best for oven mets.

Speaker 16 (15:57):
So you're gonna have everybody who's better than meet craft
phoning in now. But so denims are good. Jeans, old jeans.
Are you going to shop? Get some old jeans because
that's there they are as a cousin, and they're not
the fancy streetch ones all made a polyester old jeans
and a couple of old blankets. That would be your best.
But don't forget to make the blanket on the back

(16:18):
side of the mitten part as it were, if you
know what I mean thinking to like long rectangle.

Speaker 3 (16:24):
Is a blanket not go against the hot plate?

Speaker 4 (16:27):
No, no, because you're going to.

Speaker 16 (16:28):
Cover that in the genes. You're going to cover that.
So it's going to be fully encased in denim or
some cotton material.

Speaker 3 (16:35):
What's the point of the blanket.

Speaker 16 (16:38):
Because that's going to be really sick and that's your
insulation because you want to.

Speaker 3 (16:41):
Don't wanta ge you're good, donna, I'm back to I'll
bet to you been good again. That's right, because there
will be the insulation and then the denner will be
the thing that won't that will be a tough material
for the for the oven tray.

Speaker 16 (16:55):
Yes, that's right, and that won't that won't get burnt
as it was not going to melt there. But when
you're putting the little part on the I can't really
describe it well as the part that you'll put your
hands into. Not so people forget to put the blanket
and that part as well, because the back of your
hand has only got the denim on it. Then it's
still got to be just as thick.

Speaker 3 (17:14):
The blanket on both sides and would you go with
one continuous one or two individuals for each hand, like
little crocodiles.

Speaker 7 (17:24):
Oh no, I just do one, would you?

Speaker 16 (17:27):
You could end up crocodiles. So what you're doing is
it's basically like a pocket. Imagine a pocket at the
end of a rectangle each pocket. Is it very easy sewing? Yeah,
but that extra bit that you use as the pocket
must also have the blanket in that pocket, because lots
of people forget that and you'll see them at the Yeah.

(17:47):
But because they're quite good fun just to make them
the kids, they're really The blankets are literally called blanket stitch,
so you don't even need a throwing machine.

Speaker 13 (17:54):
You can.

Speaker 3 (17:55):
I know the blankets are at Are you on Instagram?

Speaker 11 (18:00):
Donnar?

Speaker 3 (18:02):
I am well doing home hunts and.

Speaker 16 (18:04):
Craft No, no, no no, I'm just a good old
session to win to school in the seventies and eighties
and learned how.

Speaker 8 (18:12):
To do it.

Speaker 3 (18:13):
Wow. Appreciate your moxy. It's been great. Thank you. Wow. So,
who's put the wrong fuel in their car? That's the
topic for tonight. And who's made their own oven mits
oooh oh my god, I'm married. Couple had an argument
Donald Trump and his wife. You must live a perfect life, Marcus,

(18:34):
I can see what you've done there. Well, I'll tell
you something about me. I've never been on marine one
and I'm not married, so neither of those things apply
to me. Mind you, is Trump married? Oh yes, I
suppose so, just well, what would you say about that?

(18:55):
And I've never sternly shaken my head? Doesn't look good.
I'll double down now that's what I do anyway. Welcome people,
Marcus till twelve, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty two,
known to detect, looking forward to what you've got to say,
South and on the charge back three quarters gone south
and twenty eight Tasman forty eight. We'll give them a scare.

(19:17):
I might have been turned it on now it looks
like it's from behind. Oh, by the way, it's six
even you extend the seven when you say six to seven.
That's what the kids are doing. It's a thing. It's
pretty annoying. It's pretty annoying. Like my remote mind, you
was pushing volume rather than channels. Twenty forty eight. Stags

(19:40):
are stags behind tas Man South Island, Derby top and bottom.
There we go, going at it. We are talking about
bad things. You've done to your cars, like the wrong fuel,
amateur mistakes when you're driving and filling up with petrol,
and the likes we've all done it. Let's out ourselves
on that. Or who else has washed their keys in

(20:00):
the washing machine? Furious? I'll take them and get them
sing to I think Marcus, I'm a studio. I don't
think anyone knows what's succesve and means. I think it's
just a catchy phrase. Someone started saying it's spread. My
wife and I had a nineteen fifty eight chevroleigh. We
pulled it at the petrol station at Rocks Bryan O
that station, put the nozzle on to fuel the car up.
The attendant came out and said it was is your

(20:22):
car diesel? I said no, he said you? He said
you have picked up the picked up the pump. At
that point I put three quarters of the tank and
diesel in it. The car went for a week before
I had to put petrol in it. It just smoked
a bit from Brian.

Speaker 5 (20:37):
Marcus.

Speaker 3 (20:37):
We would have brand new motor home and went off
on our first holiday to Dunedin. We pulled it the
BP down there to fill up a paid and went
on our way. When it started jerking, we realized we
filled with petrol instead of diesel. We rang our insurance.
They caught an exit and paid for it. Not sure
how much it was, but it was a big job

(20:58):
because we drove it. You think petrol and a diesel
you got I think it. I think it does your ring.
I don't know what it does. What a mechanic. Oh,
it'll do your rings or something. It'll do your seals,
that's what they say. So if you've done that, let
me know anything goes Hititle twelve twenty seven away from

(21:19):
nine fuel or diesel in your car. That's what we're
on about tonight, and happy to be doing that. That's
good for me, good for me, good for you, good
for them, good for me, good for you, good for them.
That's the way we like to work tonight. Be in
touch if you want to, as I say, eight hundred
and eighty ten eighty and nine to nine to de

(21:41):
text Hittle twelve. Anything else you want to talk about
here for you people nice to hear from you. Anything else, beautiful.
We can cope anyway. Christus is Marcus welcome evening.

Speaker 18 (21:58):
Marcus just wanted to chip in a little.

Speaker 3 (22:00):
Bit tonight, Yes think you Yes, so I thought it might.

Speaker 18 (22:04):
Give a bit of insight into the wrong fuel scenario.

Speaker 3 (22:08):
Which is worse.

Speaker 18 (22:10):
Yeah. Well, I'm not exactly sure, but my thought pattern
is the petrol, which is more flammable, going into a diesel,
which is a hotter burning engine could likely cause more
damage to the engine. But also potentially I guess question
via the diesel nozzle at the petrol station has a

(22:34):
fatter nozzle, so very unlikely that you'll get the diesel
into the petrol tank. But the diesel engine and the
fuel pump relies quite heavily on the lubricating properties of
the fuel of the diesel, So if you put petrol
into a diesel vehicle, you end up damaging the high

(22:56):
pressure fuel pump, and that can put metal filenks through
the system, causing damage to the other components like the
fuel injectors. So it can be ten fifteen thousand dollars
worth of repair on a modern car.

Speaker 3 (23:08):
Wow, and even if even if you catch it quite soon.

Speaker 18 (23:14):
Yeah, best case scenarios you don't run it. But like
your previous caller drove the three kilometers until they started
gain performance issues. Very fortunate that just simply draining it
out and kind of flushing that system didn't cause any damage.
You're very very common for the parts to start overheating
inside the high pressure feel pump and when they're not

(23:34):
lubricated properly. Yeah, cause catastrophic failure of those parts.

Speaker 3 (23:41):
I don't know how the insurance company would go on
it too, because they'd probably be sick of those sort
of appeals or those sort of claims because of stupidity,
isn't it.

Speaker 18 (23:49):
Well, definitely had good experiences and bad experience with customers
and insurance companies. That is a one time mistake, and
that's what insurance is for. It's the same as driving
into a powerful.

Speaker 5 (24:00):
Yes my view, and some.

Speaker 18 (24:04):
Insurance companies do consider that and have paid out for
that yet.

Speaker 3 (24:08):
So it seems though petrol and diesel is worse, isn't it.

Speaker 18 (24:14):
Yeah from my experience where we're relying on that lubricating
properties the diesel that just doesn't exist in the petrol,
then yes, I've never had a fire or a catastrophic
safty issue because of it, but definitely a mechanical breakdown
because of it.

Speaker 3 (24:31):
Yes, appreciate that, Chris, thanks so much that tasmand just
scored to that's the coach killer now doing some stupid
thing with his head as do you get sort of that,
mate anyway, not only what he was doing actually, because
he's doing a Southern stegg he's doing a shark thing.
Oh the Tasman sharks, of course. Yes, that's why I
was getting the confused with the basketball twenty four away

(24:54):
from nine, twenty two away from nine o'clock gift. This
is Marcus welcome.

Speaker 7 (25:03):
Yeah, I mean, Marcus, I was just listing about this field.
But I can't believe that people can be so stupid
to put the wrong feel in their car. When you
buy a car and you know it's got ninety one
or ninety five, that's what you put in. You don't
have the days of people coming out anymore and putting

(25:26):
feel on your tanks like like they used to, because
they're not they're not that courteous anymore. But I just
failed to believe that people could be so stupid. If
you open up the flap on a car, you can
it's got a little thing there, ninety one, ninety five
or diesel. There's a little notice here, a little sicker.

(25:51):
I just failed to believe that people can be so
stupid to put the wrong feel on But I'm sorry,
but that's the way I feel.

Speaker 3 (25:59):
Jeff. Yeah, in my life, I try not to be
too mental, not a I Well, you're very judgmental.

Speaker 19 (26:11):
I don't.

Speaker 3 (26:11):
I have walked in their shoes. People have chaotic lives.
Some morning, there could be other stuff going on. They
could be involved in mergers and acquisitions. There could be
a big takeover or something bad might be going on.
They're just kind of abbs it. We've all done it.
I can identify with it entirely.

Speaker 7 (26:28):
You might have.

Speaker 3 (26:29):
I hadn't. I haven't.

Speaker 7 (26:31):
I just felt that people can put the wrong feel
on their car. Sorry, no way.

Speaker 3 (26:39):
Yeah, yeah, but that's an intolerant Yeah, but that's okay.
Where's that going to get you this judgment?

Speaker 7 (26:46):
Jeff, Yeah, that's my judgment on people dumb enough to
stagel onto a petrol car. Then you're going to ask
for problems.

Speaker 3 (26:56):
But how is this working out for you? Being judgment
like this? You sound a little bit heated.

Speaker 7 (27:00):
I don't care.

Speaker 3 (27:01):
Okay, people, Let you go, mister angry tonight. Well, I
appreciate your opinion. This was a very good one. Alas
like the stories, people are like I enjoyed. I enjoyed
the dramas and the situations people get themselves into rumgoing
this one nineteen to nine, Rachel, this is Marcus welcome.

Speaker 7 (27:27):
Hi.

Speaker 10 (27:27):
So yeah, just listening to Jess talking about how stupids
or he can't believe how stupid Peel can be. I
do a lot of traveling and would have been about
six months. Six weeks ago, traveled from Dargavill to Kaitia,
got up to the top of the manga makers and
my petrorelight came on. I had thirty eight kilometers travel

(27:48):
with thirty k's of diesel of petrol. Sorry left in
my car. And if you think I didn't leave my lesson,
I didn't because last night traveling from Tower back to Zagavil,
I did it again. Just jump them my car I had, like,
you know, one hundred k's with guesser, oh yeah, didn't
even bother looking. Petrol light came on, googled my nearest

(28:11):
picture station is forty six k's away and I literally
had to just put it a neutral face and I'd
get there.

Speaker 5 (28:19):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (28:20):
How exciting is that?

Speaker 2 (28:21):
I like?

Speaker 3 (28:22):
I like living like that, Rachel. Though I always think
enough because it's amazing how fade got empty.

Speaker 10 (28:26):
But still wow, well I guess maybe I'll just get sick.

Speaker 3 (28:32):
It's such a bore too. It takes so long.

Speaker 10 (28:36):
Well, yes, exactly, You've got to pull off the road away.
You know, you've got down of your vehicle and it's
just we need we need planes that fly past us.

Speaker 9 (28:44):
The spuel.

Speaker 10 (28:45):
That's while we're.

Speaker 3 (28:45):
Driving, Rachel. I used to spend the time when the
car was fulling tidying the car. But now the surveys
have got too miserable with their bins. You know, there's
got a tighty little thing to put your rubbish, and
beforehand it was quite volumeless, but now the one that just.

Speaker 10 (28:59):
Out of Teapockey is great. Pull in there and empty
my car out and give it a vacuum. I've got
to jet Russell. So you know it's the here and
the car.

Speaker 18 (29:07):
You've got a huge bin.

Speaker 3 (29:09):
You're doing long distances? Are you in sales?

Speaker 20 (29:12):
No?

Speaker 10 (29:13):
No, just like to travel. So I live and I
live in the north and I work in Twanga, and
I've got family.

Speaker 3 (29:18):
And brilliant living the dream.

Speaker 4 (29:21):
Rachel.

Speaker 3 (29:21):
Nice to hear from you. Thank you. Fifteen to nine TB.
This is Marcus welcome good doing.

Speaker 14 (29:28):
Yeah, I think she would jest.

Speaker 3 (29:31):
I just she sounds like he's having a bad night.
Let's face it.

Speaker 14 (29:37):
Yeah, I've just brought my first diesel car six months
ago and I live in here. Of fueling it on automatic,
you know, just get out, grabbed the nozzle, stick it
in and forgetting that I've close a diesel and so
far I haven't been caught out, but I can see
how people's prove it would be you just you killed

(30:01):
your car a thousand times with one nozzle and and
you've got a different cat. But I've nearly been caught
because my diesels carrying in the shop hand some work
done to it. I've got a petrol car and I
pulled out the diesel.

Speaker 3 (30:18):
If you're switching between the two fuels, would be pretty
easy to do.

Speaker 14 (30:23):
I would think easy has anything to do. So, you know,
I feel for those people that you know, it's all
right if you're halfway through and you realize because you
haven't started your engine, but.

Speaker 3 (30:41):
What do you do? What do you do? What do
you do?

Speaker 21 (30:43):
Then?

Speaker 3 (30:43):
If you haven't started your engine, do you just do
you push it round the back to the garage?

Speaker 14 (30:48):
Yep, yep, and drain the tank and refill of the
right stuff. A little bit of diesel and of the petrol.
Car is not going to do you.

Speaker 4 (30:57):
It spoke of it.

Speaker 14 (30:58):
But you can't run it on diesel. But you say,
you've just topped up your tank and it's so, you've
got twenty five diesel. You it'll ratten, it'll running like
a hare his dog, but it will rap. But people
in the diesel tank.

Speaker 3 (31:15):
That's is there a tip on the bottom of the
tank is easy to drain.

Speaker 14 (31:22):
You get him mechanic to coming up and go. But yes,
there's a there's a draining. It has there has to
be because yeah, when your car is ricked, they have
to drain the fluids out of it.

Speaker 3 (31:34):
Brilliant. Okay, thanks debe What be up to dare we have?
We've done the forty five? I can't see it. Have
little Peter Pannick here, John and to Marcus welcome. Oh
there it is John and Marcus welcome Mark.

Speaker 22 (31:51):
Can you hear me?

Speaker 11 (31:52):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (31:52):
John, thank you?

Speaker 22 (31:54):
Yeah, No, Look, I just wanted to say just literally
about five minutes prior to to to that chap ringing.
And I don't mean Jeff, although he will stand out
the chap who had the Monday morning incident. I was
filling up the car with petrol, and I thought, oh
my god, I'd manage you all these years without ever

(32:15):
putting the diesel in the petrol car, you know. And
then I had a real sort of butt for the grades
of god go I, oh, you know, because I'm terribly
disorganized and I'm a sort of person who would do it.
And then no know, had I lead the peture station,
and I heard the story about the stress on Monday morning.
And then of course we we all got Jeff. And
so look at it. Well, I think Jeff is Jeff

(32:37):
has told any of us who might might make a mistake.
But I just can only assume he's perfect.

Speaker 3 (32:43):
But look at Jeff. It's been a good evening for Jeff.
Because Jeff feels like king of the world because he's
neve sitting at home. They're really talked about he's never
done that. So he's thinking, well, I'm winning it life
because I've never put in a petrol car.

Speaker 22 (32:54):
He's effectively gone viral, really has he's become. He's always
talking about no, no, But look, he's one of these
people who had never never, never, never, never made that mistake.
But I think it's harder for the petrol people to
bag a shrup because the diesel thing has that cat.

Speaker 3 (33:14):
I've lifted the flap, but someone says it doesn't fit in.
But it would fit in, wouldn't it.

Speaker 15 (33:18):
I'm sure?

Speaker 22 (33:19):
I mean unless you yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 (33:21):
If it didn't fit and they wouldn't need the flap.

Speaker 22 (33:25):
No, correct, the flap is for.

Speaker 3 (33:29):
You, wouldn't need the flap.

Speaker 23 (33:32):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (33:33):
What I always find John, and I liked you. I
think if one the night by saying deaf's gone viral
quite often, I'll get out of my car, yeah, and
pick up the fuel bowser right, yes, and then I'll
have to step over the hose because I'll be on

(33:54):
the wrong side of the hose.

Speaker 7 (33:56):
Oh.

Speaker 24 (33:57):
Yes.

Speaker 22 (33:57):
And that that's a that's a class, especially if you
park a bit far away or you park too close or.

Speaker 3 (34:06):
The wrong way you pick it up and you're always
on the rock.

Speaker 22 (34:10):
Yeah, and it's all tangled with I mean, you always
have a closing counter with with the diesel hose, regardless
of you're using it.

Speaker 3 (34:19):
Yeah, okay, But I think more about that. Why do
they do that? Why it almost feels like it should
be for a left handed person. You who nine from nine.
So just to explain, I'm not parking on the wrong
side of the bowser. I'm sometimes picking it up and
then putting it in, and I find I've got to
step over the hose to get back in the car.

(34:41):
I know about little man poking one direction showing which
side the bowels is on. I've been on the internet, Stephanie.
Marcus welcome, Oh, just dropped off. Not if I clicked them,
they go. It must have come into a bad area, Marcus. Twice.
I have put petrol into my diesel vehicle because of tiredness.

(35:02):
The first time was so embarrassing as a mechanical cervice station,
said said degree student. Are we well? Yes, they had
been university, but didn't let the mechanics know that. Stiffanie,
this is Marcus. Welcome. Oh, something's gone for something's gone
bad with him? Dan, yeah' allergic to him? Seeving away

(35:23):
from nine? No, yeah, I've wrecked the phone system. That's great,
We've got no more talk back. No, I just go home.
What's going wrong with it? Steffanie Marcus, Welcome.

Speaker 19 (35:39):
Here, Marcus, I've gone the petrol. I stopped at an
I'll get down the road. Man doesn't sound right, So
I phone the company and they say, there is the

(36:00):
petrol bus. Are there you straight away?

Speaker 14 (36:03):
What I've done well.

Speaker 25 (36:06):
Wasn't too bad because it was about.

Speaker 19 (36:08):
A fifty to fifty mins at that stage. So we're
able to drain somehow.

Speaker 25 (36:12):
With two tanks.

Speaker 19 (36:14):
The bok between the two tanks drained somehow to the
one tank and refolded with diesel and just kept every about.

Speaker 25 (36:22):
Every truck stuff I came to, I kept popping it up.

Speaker 19 (36:25):
With diesel to get affected diesel. Yeah, there is the worst.
There is the worse one than that, and that is
AD blue that a lot of modern engines use now.
And if you put that into the diesel or the
diesel into the AD blue, that is major.

Speaker 3 (36:46):
So what's ad blue?

Speaker 11 (36:47):
Doo?

Speaker 19 (36:48):
Ad blue is an art the treatment that come into
your muscler with nitrous cabin all the rest of the stuff.

Speaker 14 (36:58):
It's like a.

Speaker 25 (36:59):
Liquid your ear.

Speaker 19 (37:01):
And if you put that into your diesel tank, you've
got major issues.

Speaker 3 (37:07):
How many leaders of petrol had you put into your track?
Like one hundred?

Speaker 25 (37:11):
Oh, about one hundred and fifty yeut of four hundred?

Speaker 3 (37:14):
Did they manage to save that? Did they manage to
save it.

Speaker 19 (37:19):
Yeah, the truck was fine, but.

Speaker 3 (37:22):
They met did they just did they just toss their
petrol out? What do they do with the petrol? How
do they collect it?

Speaker 13 (37:28):
Well?

Speaker 19 (37:28):
I stopped at another trucking company and they we managed
to train or about half the league tank out and
we topped that up.

Speaker 25 (37:36):
With diesel, so it was a better.

Speaker 19 (37:39):
Five and we just kept running it at that and
that was the Secually a safe pleaned about five percent
of petrol into diesel. A lot of these in the
Navan countries will use diesel as a eighty freeze. Are
these diesels will burn a.

Speaker 13 (37:59):
Little bit better?

Speaker 3 (38:00):
I just wonder what they did with the petrol that
you'd gotten that tank, whether that was used for anything.

Speaker 2 (38:06):
Oh, they may have.

Speaker 19 (38:07):
Used it for something at that trucking company.

Speaker 9 (38:10):
I don't know what.

Speaker 25 (38:11):
They used it for.

Speaker 3 (38:13):
How's the weather?

Speaker 5 (38:14):
Yeah?

Speaker 19 (38:15):
Wait, I'm just Royer on State always thirty nine eighty
south and year I've had rained on and off all
the way from the Bombay Hills.

Speaker 3 (38:25):
How do you feel going past that spot where your
head the next and do you remember that every time?

Speaker 21 (38:30):
Oh?

Speaker 19 (38:31):
Yeah, I just went past it a bit or just
after I started.

Speaker 26 (38:34):
Speaking to you.

Speaker 3 (38:34):
Yeah, I thought you must have.

Speaker 2 (38:36):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 19 (38:37):
The marks still on the road and there's a hole
in the hedge with the sort of posting rails up.

Speaker 9 (38:44):
But yeah it is.

Speaker 2 (38:47):
It's there.

Speaker 3 (38:48):
Does it give you the heb gbs?

Speaker 25 (38:50):
Okay, that's I've put it in a box on the
shelf and labeled as occupational hazards.

Speaker 3 (39:00):
Stiff, don't talk, give a good night. I just coming
up to you have to cut them off there, just
coming up to nine o'clock here until twelve ge. That
was a bus the hour start off literally like a
car crash, and away we go, thirty eight to fifty five.
The Sharks, the Marcos beat the Stags. Fifty five thirty eight.
We could call that. I feel like I've got the
good lot of tries. It was a try fest, absolute

(39:24):
try fest. Catch you soon, Thank you. Jennifer Ushians. Jennifer
Usher's birthday this weekend Shares sixty five and what happens
with Jennifer Usher's birthday, We play that song. It's entirety.
That will be at seven to midnight, So we will
do that because we can. People are loving these stories
about putting diesel in your fuel tank or fuel or

(39:46):
petrol in your diesel tank neither good. Neither good at all.
The fuel and the diesel appears to be worse. Got
on text for these if you want to talk about this.
Oh wait one hundred eighty to ten eighty erin texts Marcus.

(40:10):
A couple of years ago, I toddle. The son was grizzly,
not sleeping, so I took him for a full am drive.
We've all done it. We parked up by the christ
Church runway. As exhausted, we both fell asleep. I woke
after an now and was driving home, but the engine
was so sluggish. Car struggling to get his speed, felt
like I was fighting it, about to conk out. Get
my foot down firm, but it wouldn't go with thirty k's.

(40:30):
I had to slow down for a roundabout and the
car died. That's why I realized I'd been driving with
a handbrake onrevor nearly a kayl like that. Thankfully it
was started when I got home. I came mechanic checked it.
No damage. Don't drive tired people, Jeez, Aaron done that often, Marcus.
Why Tomo fuel has a good idea? The terminal screen
asked you to say yes to the fuel you asked for,

(40:52):
so it's hard to pick up the wrong handle as
it won't work. I put five years of pitted on
a kid worth about fifty to twenty five years ago.
Luckily I caught it few. It was an owner driver's baby,
so I was sweating bullets over the fifty k Cummings egent.
I found it later a mate and Australia used two dose.
Used to use two dose as for a lettered truck
tank with Tenny's a petrol, so it went better. I

(41:15):
don't know what two dose means, but that's what he's
clearly done. Someone says, have you put petrol on the
phone system?

Speaker 27 (41:22):
No?

Speaker 3 (41:22):
Or what I'd done. I'd put my phone down on
the keyboard and what was the button down had control?
So when I put control, it means as soon as
I click on a call, it hangs them up. I thought,
for fun, what would do with Jim Steen would put

(41:42):
one of his control things down and see if he
notices all night when no one calls going to even
That would be craul wouldn't it anyway? Welcome people had
at midnight? Oh wait eighty Taddy Scott Marcus good evening.

Speaker 6 (41:54):
Hi, Marcus, to have put the wrong fuel in a
vehicle out of habit.

Speaker 7 (42:00):
You have?

Speaker 6 (42:02):
Yeah, I went from a diesel van to a petrol
van and I thought of that was diesel fo time
moment to fill up, and so I had the guy
come to the petrol station, you know, to to clean
to clean out the fank basically, And I said, what
happens to the to the few and he says, oh,
they've got a refining system, so they take it back
and sort it out.

Speaker 3 (42:22):
Basically, that can you because it's hard stuff to just dump,
isn't it. Yeah.

Speaker 27 (42:27):
Well, the thing that I.

Speaker 6 (42:28):
Said, I said, do you get a lot of call ups?
And he said it happens all the time, a lot
of times that you know guys that usually drive a
ute or a van that you know used to doing diesel,
they'll take the wife's car out and put diesel in
the out of habits. But he said the cars isn't
the worst. He said, they've had a few with They've
had people fill up a boat like I think he

(42:48):
said five thousand leaders once with diesel a bit official.
So that was a lot more expensive than during a
vaner a car.

Speaker 3 (42:56):
Who did you call Scott.

Speaker 14 (43:00):
I don't remember.

Speaker 6 (43:01):
I don't remember the name of the company exactly. It
was on. It was somewhere around Dominion Road with that
shell station is. And I did it and I realized
it, and I said, oh jeez.

Speaker 3 (43:10):
And I went back and you googled it. Oh, you
asked the Guessie.

Speaker 6 (43:13):
I told you, yeah, this, I mean, this is pretty smartphone.
It must happen. He the guy just had a business
guy be haw Matilist. He just call these guys that
happened and it goes and it was like that was
their business.

Speaker 4 (43:23):
It was called like.

Speaker 6 (43:27):
D suck you up or something along those lines, so
that that was their whole business model, is cleaning up
people that put the wrong fuel, and so it obviously
happens to a lot of people. I didn't feel so
bad after that.

Speaker 3 (43:36):
And you know what the whole business isn't you know
what the whole business has got. The whole business is
making people feel okay about it because A, it's the business,
and be it's all they deal with. Oh, it's all right, Scott,
it happens all the time.

Speaker 22 (43:47):
Maybe.

Speaker 6 (43:47):
But but when you told me about someone putting five
thousand leaders of these on seat of picture in a
you know in a ship. I thought, well I got
off lately to everything that happened.

Speaker 3 (43:58):
Yeah, good on your Scott. Nice story. Thank you, Steve Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 21 (44:02):
Are you doing about putting Petro and and theeselor on that.
I'll tell you what's the worst thing. It's putting too
much oil in. The guy came into the gearage I
was working in, and he'd seen the mechanic put in
in the little red tin of oil and and say,
you know, they're about a liter and he thought he thought,

(44:25):
Master thought to himself, oh that wasn't enough. So he
bought a four leater container, poured in. He said it
ran for about five minutes and then stopped. He said,
I don't know why it won't start now. We pulled
the plugs out and they were covered in oil. Oh
dere you run a run ahead gesscud or something. Anyway,

(44:48):
I just pulled the deepstick out. I said, you could
too much oil in it. That's why it stopped. To
take the pull hole mode of the pieces and get
all the oil out of it. But it had to
have rings, a new set of rings and that. But
he had no where he should have had about four

(45:10):
leaders oil. He had eight leaders. It took it, but
it wouldn't run. That's the worst thing. When we finally
fired it up boarded its smoke.

Speaker 3 (45:23):
And was all right. After that, Steve was our capital.

Speaker 21 (45:25):
Yeah, I went down the exhaust pipe. It went everywhere.
But say, we had to strip the motor, get all
the oil out of it, and then put new rings
in and it worked after a while, but it was
quite a bit too my toil, Steve.

Speaker 3 (45:44):
Are you a white baiter?

Speaker 20 (45:46):
Ah?

Speaker 22 (45:47):
Yes, hit diddy.

Speaker 21 (45:49):
I had a lead of them where I've been my baiting.
There's a kingfisher feeding her young. She's feeding her young
with the white bait, and so I just got a
little bit from myself, made a few couple of bridges.
But I've just left it for mother nature, okay, to

(46:10):
see the little baby.

Speaker 3 (46:11):
Oh yeah, they're a great bird, the kingfisher. I don't
get this bird of the air rubbish. But I saw
a kingfisher the other day and I thought, Wow, what
a gorgeous looking bird.

Speaker 21 (46:21):
Yeah so regal, but.

Speaker 3 (46:25):
Regal, regal, regal.

Speaker 21 (46:30):
A little hole looking at me, and I thought, oh no,
I'll just leave it for me.

Speaker 3 (46:33):
There'll be a great feet for little birds. To a
little white bait in their mouth. I'd love that, wouldn't
they perfect?

Speaker 21 (46:38):
Oh yeah, far from home? Oh better, half an hour's
walk from the end of the road.

Speaker 3 (46:49):
You got a Southland sock. What sort of net you got?

Speaker 21 (46:53):
Oh it's made out of a pair of.

Speaker 6 (46:56):
Ladies, isn't it.

Speaker 3 (46:58):
Yeah, Okay, it's a bit of.

Speaker 21 (47:00):
A homemade job, but it does a trick.

Speaker 3 (47:02):
Well, you don't need much. You've got to save something
from the kingfisher.

Speaker 21 (47:06):
Yeah, yeah, but it's lovely just to watch them. You know,
they just dive and pick one up, up up to
the little hole in the bank, ted little bubber, and
back again.

Speaker 3 (47:16):
And oh the fish, the kingfishes make the nests and
the dirt.

Speaker 21 (47:20):
Do they Yeah, in the banks of the river. But
the one one year there was a bough of a
tree across the river and they had a big knot
on it and they'd hollowed it out and they had
they were in that quite safe from the predators.

Speaker 22 (47:38):
Ye.

Speaker 21 (47:39):
But yeah, I know they have in the clay bank
on the side of the river, the little holes.

Speaker 3 (47:44):
Well they must use their bell as a little chisel.

Speaker 21 (47:47):
Yeah, little chisels like or the woodpecker.

Speaker 3 (47:50):
Yeah, you've seen that you've seen the eve seen a
diagram of a woodpecker's brain, like the tongue goes right
round the back of the brain like a shock absorber.

Speaker 21 (48:01):
It was something would have to because of the same.
Ever in America with they have all those big water
tanks for the steam locomotives. Certain times of the year
they've got they're going to repair them because they would
would take it. Doesn't know that it was a water
a water tank and a tree.

Speaker 3 (48:22):
Wouldn't be so wouldn't there so many steam engines there
now though, would there? Stephen, Oh, there's a few.

Speaker 21 (48:27):
There's a few vintage train groups there that they've got
water tanks.

Speaker 3 (48:31):
But nice to talk super perfect col there but a
train stuff but a bird's cortadi and also but on
the old oil. Suki Moto is the company apparently, I
guess they're still around, Suki Moto. The are the ones

(48:52):
that you put the wrong petrolum and not you, Jeff
for the judgment or judgment Jeff coming on coming in
strong from the four Marcus. I remember seeing a story

(49:12):
on social media while back somebody pulled theto a gas
station with their boat. They thought they were filling up
the boat tank all the time. They hare to the nozzle
and the fishing rod holder and filled up the bottom
of their boat with fuel.

Speaker 5 (49:23):
Wow wow, Marcus.

Speaker 3 (49:33):
Down there this day and age, most stations have number
plate recognition for people that do fuel feds. Why can't
they have it so when you park up, the camera
notes the car type using AO as something from a
database and only allows the correct fuel to be pumped. Marcus,

(49:58):
I've done the petrol and diesel wagon a couple of times.
I'm a woman and should know better.

Speaker 2 (50:01):
Right.

Speaker 3 (50:01):
There's a company called sucki Moto and they are brilliant
roadside assistant. They sought you out and get on your
way for a Feelinda and Linda from Walkworth. There we go, Marcus.

(50:23):
I had someone add sugar to my diesel yute cost
thirteen K to repair, found out by cutting diesel injectors
in half. Marcus, fourther you call a Jeff, my car
has no sticker. I've also driven several cars, none with
the stick as he was renting about Raywan Murray. Some

(50:45):
people have more than one type of car and also
have partners who put the fuel in. Anyway, Clearly, Jeff
has never made a mistake before. I've put forty lads
of people in my diesel yute once after a tired

(51:08):
night from drinking, then filled the whole tank up with diesel.
It's smelt bad while I used it, but came through
strong for me. There you go. That's what we're on
about mistakes you've made with your cars. Thanks always for

(51:33):
your talk back show. Looks like Jeff is the man
in an hour and his term of his popularity. So
there is a sticker which tells you which type of
fuel you need to flip your cap with. Big deal.
We all make mistakes, or I guess Jeff is liven
on the following mixed up saltan sugar wate, cocking, use
the wrong type of charge of his phone type, the
wrong pin number on his bank card, caught the wrong
bus or train, or taken the wrong exd on the motorway.

(51:55):
We all have one to make whe routines. Being so
judgemental does not help PEPSI exercised some compassion for those
who make such mistakes. Ash in London here has gone viral.
Eh marcus real comments about petrol station hoses getting the
way when you full up. Japan has cured this by

(52:16):
all putting the pumps in the station roof. The hoses
dangled down and you just grab the one you want.
The forecourt is bare and voidable pumps and obstacated obstacles.
Illuminated lights guide you in there. Rugby League tonight it
is Melbourne versus Cranulla from the Shire. I like Kranella

(52:42):
apart from there being Scomo's team, remember him, Scott Morrison,
like the Aussie luxon. It's always going on about how
I loved his Crenella. He loved Hillsong and Cranella. Yep.
I don't know what he's doing. I know he's working
for old Trumpo. I think always looking for gig those

(53:09):
old liggers, aren't they. Twenty one past nine at the
word liggers, Yeah, I think that's the right word. Twenty
one past nine, twenty four past nine. Looking forward to
your calls, Doug. This as Marcus welcome, Oh hello Marcus.

Speaker 11 (53:24):
Yeah. I listened to the guy who I was very
interested in, the guy with the bird, the Kingfisher.

Speaker 3 (53:29):
Yes.

Speaker 11 (53:29):
When I moved to into my place in Foxton, I
dug a pole and there were two King Fascists that
came around. One of them later had had checks.

Speaker 5 (53:43):
I don't know.

Speaker 11 (53:43):
I didn't see the nest, but the checks are sort
of a rusty color. They're quite different to the mother.
But they were very checks were very friendly, actually quite
dangerously friendly if you were anti.

Speaker 28 (53:53):
Bird sort of thing.

Speaker 11 (53:54):
I had. The pool was full of frogs and tadpoles,
and I had some pale faced bird. I'm trying to
think of what it was. Some of them it has
to come down. And there was quite a little little
group of birds that tried to feed on the pond.
Basically the king fetch had been the most beautiful of them, really,

(54:17):
but the pond's borne. I've managed to put other things
in its place. But the some of the babies and
and and the adults have come back basically and are
still around the place, you know. So they're beautiful birds. Actually,

(54:38):
if people, if people have the space, they should have
a small pond. It doesn't have to be very big
at all.

Speaker 3 (54:44):
It relieved you idle your ted poles and frogs, did
it well.

Speaker 11 (54:50):
I tended to put rocks and things and and cover
our slate cover and stuff so they could get away.
And the pale face I've forgotten the name of the
bird that the pale face thing has got would come
down and would try and ship them all into that
she had it. She had a messod you know, shepherding
all these tadpoles and things into into the shallows where

(55:12):
she could get to them, you see. And I would,
I would, I would try and get kidders to go
away because I didn't clear what all the frogs killed,
but she thought she thought it was fair pool. Basically,
she was quite got, quite angry, didn't didn't sort of
fly away from me or anything. She was she was
quite aggressive. But the kingfishers didn't. The king kingfishes went

(55:33):
aggressive at all. They just sort of set up in
the tree and came down every so off and.

Speaker 28 (55:36):
Ate what they liked.

Speaker 11 (55:38):
But there were other birds as well, which I never
really identified, basically, but I was amazed at how quickly
they gathered. You know, they come from all around the place,
but it's it's it's more built up now and there's
a drive close to it, and the neighbors are you know,
they're nice but there, but were noisier than they were

(55:59):
when I first came here. And so I haven't really
sort of haven't got the pond going again. It's basically
just just a slight hole now because I think.

Speaker 3 (56:11):
A lot of people have had a lot of people
are putting Sculfish bonds and they've lost them all to kingfishes.

Speaker 11 (56:16):
I think, well, kingfishes are They're beautiful birds, they really are,
but they're voracious. Basically. The first things that I put
into to it were not tropical fish, but fish basically,

(56:37):
rather than the tadpoles and things, and kingfishes are clean
them out in no time. The tadpoles were much better
for hiding, you know, and they became frogs of course eventually.
But the ordinary, the ordinary I'm not sure what you
call them. Basically they went goldfish, but they were like

(56:57):
I didn't use any fish that weren't recommended because you
don't want to get them into the native population egal
fish that only existed on pools or ponds or or tanks,
I suppose, and they were easy prey. They had lots
of places to hide.

Speaker 26 (57:14):
But the.

Speaker 11 (57:16):
Kingfishers come down and dive into the water basically come
up with it and away they'd go. And pretty soon
had the young ones and the other batch that I saw.
This was last year, I think, which is another teen
years on from when I had the main group there
were there were two or three of those of the
little ones that they're rusty colored, quite beautiful birds, but

(57:40):
not at all like kingfish is really the same shape
of course, but smaller and rusty, not the normal colors kingfish.
Kingfishers were just beautiful.

Speaker 3 (57:49):
Beautiful colors. Dug, thanks so much for that, coul. Thank
you keep those texts coming through, for there's two lines
for if you do want to come on and be
a part of the chat tonight. And we've gone from
putting the wrong fill on ther tie as to kingfishers
into your car to kingfishers. Both topics are still live topics.
Rolls Royce made a multi fuel engine for tanks numbered

(58:11):
vehicles which would be tuned on the go to run
on chirossing diesel petrol handy when in vaining countries been
able to fla up at gas stations. Kingfishes are related
to the Australian cooker. Bough watched the prage on sea
shore birds. One was called a wizard. Never heard of them.
One thing that secondly was owls were eating wizard chicks.

(58:34):
Oh yeah, anyway, do get in touch you on a
talk Marcus. I just GenEd in a half an hour ago.
There's week so much to talk about, Jeff that I
went back and listen on demand on your website. It
was worth it. Yeah, Jeff went viral. That's what's that?
The word? He said, Hey Dan, jefferent viral a radio

(58:55):
version of viral just means so grumpy. Don't they be
worth it? I wouldn't have asked her to go back
for it, Graham. It's Marcus.

Speaker 29 (59:04):
Welcome, good evening and interesting refueling. Come from the north Shore.
I had to tend to function and tower on and
had to go out to How. I picked up somebody
and I held up a bit, got the pyre roar
and pushing it a little and a pet little bit
lows how, pulled into a service station and pump up

(59:27):
forty dollars worth, put the nozzle in the car, rush
in and there's a gentleman in front of him, and
I said, lo, here, forty dollars on, pump Sovno, wait
your turn, and the tap in front of me or
the first in front of me, who was a proper
pain anyway, go handed over the forty dollars, rushed outside,
hopped in the car and took off. The next thing

(59:48):
there was a hell of a noise, and the rear
vision mirror there was the pump being smashed to pieces.
I hadn't take the nozzle out of the out of
the car.

Speaker 3 (59:58):
Wow, and it pulled it over.

Speaker 29 (01:00:05):
With the uzzle, the heavy muzzle on the end of
the rubber hose that was flying around in all directions.

Speaker 3 (01:00:12):
Yeah, I think you can even if you leave the
nozzle and you can actually pull the pump over. Sometimes
you can actually just tip it over. People have done that.

Speaker 29 (01:00:20):
The end of that goes in the tank and the
filler was plastic and that broke off.

Speaker 3 (01:00:28):
Okay, that's blessing, a.

Speaker 29 (01:00:31):
Blessing, and that was still in my petrol tang when
I sold the car years later.

Speaker 3 (01:00:40):
Good story, Graham, Thank you like that. Oh, it's good
about faulty refueling.

Speaker 10 (01:00:44):
I like that.

Speaker 3 (01:00:46):
Try about tonight. Keep in touch, Marcus till twelve oh,
eight hundred and eighty to eighty, Get in touch. Het'll twelve.
You want to be part of it? Something else you've got? Good?
What is that? Something else? Do come through DCT yep? Yes,

(01:01:12):
filling with the wrong fuel.

Speaker 24 (01:01:16):
Yep.

Speaker 3 (01:01:20):
Right about If you want to be a part of it,
I'd like to hear from you. There's something different you
want to talk, but that's also good. We're a broad church.
Texts are good if you want to. It's mainly about
fueling up with the wrong fuel and Kingfisher birds Ah

(01:01:46):
twenty seven to ten. Here to the end, people, the
bitter end, just texting home, telling the rugby is about
to start, the body in bed. Otherwise they can watch.
Otherwise they can watch in morning, they can watch. What's
happening people, How you're going? Everyone taken care of crazy

(01:02:14):
things we've done with your car. Easy mistakes with your car.
Put the fuel in the wrong thing. I put my
keys in my ging pockets. I put them through the
wash tonight, so I've got them in my pants pockets,
trying to dry them out with body heat and mckendovry short.
I hope it's going to work all right. I might

(01:02:35):
put in rice when I get home. It's one of
those electronic keys, which I'm not a big fan of.
But you know, change yourself or change the world. The
world is changing. I've got to manage to fit in
with it, don't I can't be a luddite. So if
there's a how's it? Anyone got the eyebits for that
house far in Herne Bay Crumber Road was it Crumber

(01:02:56):
Crumber Road wasn't to assess for smoke inhalation herne Bay?
Whom not the latest? You might have something, but I've
got from news for you. I'll just check some of
the other websites to make sure I'm all across it.
Southend did good comeback, but not enough to take down Tasman.

(01:03:18):
One of the Tesman wingers got heterric hetrick. But yes,
do get in touch with you on to talk. Oh
wait hundred eight text Helen, it's Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 17 (01:03:35):
Yes, good evening Marcus. It's Helen. And I was just
surprised today driving from West Aalkland to Resorkland on the
motorway and motorway yep, yeah, West stalk And to Restorkan
and the off wrapps where they have the lights so

(01:03:59):
they say, oh, you've got to go on the green
light and then they have the red light which you're
not allowed to go on. And how many people were
going on the red light. I couldn't believe it. Well,
it was amazing.

Speaker 3 (01:04:16):
I always thought those were just recommendations. They weren't like
you didn't you went diet. You didn't have to stick
stick by them so much.

Speaker 17 (01:04:24):
Oh well, we don't want that with our road.

Speaker 3 (01:04:26):
Will No, I don't know about that, but yeah, okay,
is it coming off the motorware onto the motorway.

Speaker 23 (01:04:32):
Coming onto the motorway or gills?

Speaker 2 (01:04:36):
Was it?

Speaker 17 (01:04:37):
No, it's from we stalking police storking. So it was
Henderson to.

Speaker 3 (01:04:45):
Yep, I know that one.

Speaker 17 (01:04:46):
Yeah, yeah, and and they they had I mean it's
well marked and they say clearly, you know, moved two
cars on the green lights and then the red lights
are spiced to stop, but everyone was going through the
red lights.

Speaker 3 (01:05:06):
That Helen. Thank you, Liz Marcus, welcome.

Speaker 17 (01:05:09):
I just wanted to tell you that I'm not fat.
I haven't gone mad. I want to tell you the
story because I know I can tell you about two
or three years ago. I'm in the Highland Park and
it's beautiful ponds with duct from everything, and they I
was sitting there and I saw this most weird looking.

Speaker 7 (01:05:31):
Duck.

Speaker 17 (01:05:31):
Now I haven't gone silly. I'm just telling you the truth.
It had a seagull's head and.

Speaker 7 (01:05:37):
A duck body.

Speaker 17 (01:05:38):
Oh yeah, well I thought I was looney, see what
I mean. So anyway, the other day. My daughter lives
where there's ponds and all that, and she said, you know,
I don't believe what I saw the other day. I said,
I saw this duck, a seagulls head and a duck body.

(01:05:59):
So I don't know anything about whether because they migrated
to the beach.

Speaker 7 (01:06:05):
Now the duck.

Speaker 17 (01:06:08):
I just found it absolutely, you know, curious, but I
don't know where I can get the answer from them.

Speaker 3 (01:06:16):
Interested that both you and your daughter saw it.

Speaker 17 (01:06:19):
Yes on, they're around the place, you see, So I
didn't notice that how it beats, but to speech and
all that, it's all in full.

Speaker 22 (01:06:29):
Create of abduction.

Speaker 17 (01:06:30):
Now this duct everywhere. Yeah, Oh they're funny. They walk
up and down the streets, and the duck seem to
have got very suburban years. So I just wondered whether
that is a possibility like some other animals, you know,

(01:06:54):
because the seagulls are declining a number, aren't they.

Speaker 3 (01:06:59):
Oh yeah, there's some rare ones that are quite that
are that are quite endangered.

Speaker 17 (01:07:07):
So if you wanted to put that down there, it
might shave me from thinking that time a little bits.

Speaker 3 (01:07:12):
You know, I've googled it. I've googled seagull head, duck
body and nothing much has come up.

Speaker 17 (01:07:21):
No, it was just at the time, I it can't
be possible, but she come out with it as well.

Speaker 3 (01:07:27):
Okay, I have a look and see what I can
find outlets. Paul Marcus, good evening.

Speaker 13 (01:07:34):
Yeah, hi Marcus. The online went off lights. Definitely not
a recommendation. It's the legal requirement that you can get
you ticket from.

Speaker 28 (01:07:44):
How would they how would they?

Speaker 3 (01:07:46):
How would they stop you?

Speaker 13 (01:07:48):
Oh well, this is the thing. There are a lot
of hidden cameras and now they hid and guys. But
there was there was something that the AA put out
the other night on the windy mini heads. They put
across on Facebook and stuff over the social media, and
I was can you get a ticket like you say
that on one of our on rents. I grow around

(01:08:12):
and messy. We were lucky to have a police off
a vehicle waiting at the bottom of the bus room
which has always been utilized by other people other than buses.
And they picked them about six strives, the cars and
mans and stuff while we were there and just trying
to get on the motor How long it's for us
to get on the motorway. But there's those traffic light, song,

(01:08:35):
ms and loads and stuff are a waste of time.
Half the time. Some days they are off and half
as days in the morning, and other times they're not
off till two o'clock. So I can't work.

Speaker 3 (01:08:43):
With the girl's tell me about two sickonds on and
two seconds off.

Speaker 13 (01:08:47):
A yeah, yeah, very much for here. But you know
you'll get three or four cars trying to go through
one on one, you know, green light as such. But
yeahs you one car each lane.

Speaker 3 (01:08:59):
So they yeah, thanks Paul Hollo, Colin.

Speaker 29 (01:09:05):
Gay Mac.

Speaker 25 (01:09:06):
Don't just wonder if that lady's talking about with the
white hen but the old Paradise.

Speaker 3 (01:09:12):
Duck it could well be it's one of the males
or the females looks like that, doesn't it. Yeah, she
will be.

Speaker 25 (01:09:20):
The male has the color and the females not colored
or something, and that I can't remember the male and
the female colts.

Speaker 9 (01:09:29):
I just wondered that was it.

Speaker 3 (01:09:31):
Yeah, that's a good point. We've got a couple outside
our place, and every year about this time there'll be
about ten ducklings. I'm just waiting for them anytime soon.
I'm looking for the nest. The other day, I can't
work out where as it must be at one of
the water pipes. But yeah, they're lovely birds. I love
the Paradise ducks.

Speaker 25 (01:09:47):
They're often they're often nest in the trees.

Speaker 7 (01:09:51):
Oh really yeah, up in.

Speaker 25 (01:09:54):
The bush and the round from the areas. And some
of the old husbands said that they saw the bloody
ducklings falling out on the stride, and of course the
old bloody duck breeds them up on the and the nest.
And when she thinks so ready, she just pushes because
that's so funny. They just floating down.

Speaker 3 (01:10:12):
To the ground and not like oh okay. But I'm
almost certain that's what she's describing because it looks so
much like that, doesn't it with the white head. Yeah,
it's a very good point of yours, Colin. Thank you.
Uh poo tucky tucky and pooh tangy tangy the perrys. Yeah,

(01:10:33):
funny because you see the ducks, but you really really do.
I over see duck nests with full of eggs or
any nests nests. Sure that I'm sure he's right. Look
it up, Liz for me. It's the female or the
male at one of them. Yeah, Marc is just on
the blue Bridge Ferry straight fer Ohnia almost into Wellington Harbor.

(01:10:56):
This is the final trip for the vessel of New Zealand,
soon to be taken to the Red Sea. Yep. Back
in the day when we had superleaded petrol, putting unleaded
petrol in the car caused a lot of problems. You
probably would have fifteen to ten, twelve from ten, that's

(01:11:21):
the time. Of course. It's like Sarcos is going to jail.
He's got a month. Again's a feares in order. French
present ex French present. That's a big deal, isn't it.

Speaker 4 (01:11:32):
Not?

Speaker 3 (01:11:32):
If they lock away world leaders and democracies. But there
you go being touched you or a talk on air, Um, yes,
get in touch. You on to be a part of it.
Twelve away from ten o'clock. We are talking putting the
wrong fuel into cars. Go to a place like Ripco

(01:11:58):
and get a petrol and engine cleaner additive to help
clean the digital effect on the car. For car is
if it's bad, is driven with the wrong substance in
the car. The motorway on rate, the motorway on ramp,
traffic lights have signs that say one car per green,
but there's four separate lights that tically you can get
four cars through each time the light changes. Jeff the

(01:12:22):
good one. We traveled thro Christich a month ago. The
wife pulled up our range with ninety eight pittful instead
of diesel, called fueled Rescue and they showed up in
twenty minutes, sawted us out and we're driving again an
hour later. It was an amazing service and cost about
three hundred and fifty. Couldn't have been happier. Could continue
our duurney to need with a small delay. Don't say

(01:12:44):
he blames the wife. Oh well, probably her fault, that
makes sense. But there's lines fIF you want to be
in touch. Are ten away from ten o'clock loling good
for Starbucks, they're stopping, they're axing nine hundred staff struggling

(01:13:07):
coffee chain. Yep, there you go. Make you make what
you will have had, but your lines free if you
want to come through, as I say, hit til midnight tonight,
oh eight nine to the text, looking forward to what
you've got to say? Center bit six away from ten

(01:13:29):
Christ's Marcus.

Speaker 20 (01:13:30):
Welcome, Yeah, hi Marcus. Before that guy starts to feel
too smug about people make mistakes. I'm I'm a mona
mechanic from wayback and used to motivracing everything, so U
and I've done that. And in more recent times I

(01:13:50):
worked for a company and we had several veg you know,
all vans, and we had several vehicles. Some of them
were dieseled, some were petrol and seasy enough done if
you're tired and whatever, but they just run like a
herey go. Yeah, someone else fixed it up. Definitely wasn't

(01:14:11):
me because I, you know, had enough of being a mechanic.
But we're in Wau at the moment, in the caravan
behind the museum, you know, and we had no TV reception.
You know, it's gone funked again through we've been listening
to you on the radio. But I got a story

(01:14:32):
before my wife feels too smug. I felt about you know,
the sixth Magan m a mechanic, you know, doing a
fro power like that years ago. He suspecialized in a
lot of VT ups and we just used to hop
into whatever vehicle was going, you know. And she worked
at a general to spare parts in Applahattan, and she

(01:14:54):
drove all away from from Tighter, which is probably a
distance I think around about all about ten twelve k
and she had the handbrake on, and of course by
the time she got to work, she got out and
there was smoke billowing out the back of it, and

(01:15:14):
of course her clothes must have smelt as well of
all his break dust or whatever and smoke, and yeah,
so she felt pretty stupid about that one. But of
course for this moment mchann he had to go and
repair the whole back end, as the wheel cylinders and

(01:15:36):
the break breake linings, and then it absolutely melted everything.
You know.

Speaker 3 (01:15:41):
Yeah, you're not permanently at the campground, there are you
just passing through?

Speaker 20 (01:15:46):
Yeah, yeah, just passing through. But we quite often stop
either you know, tupou whichever.

Speaker 3 (01:15:54):
There wouldn't be many in the campground there would there.

Speaker 20 (01:15:58):
Uh not tonight it was just been the weather is
really bad and been blind and gale and raining, you know,
like it is everywhere, and we're just behind the there's
Freedom camping in behind the museum. And of course my
wife used to work for defense and so we find it.
It's good security here too.

Speaker 3 (01:16:19):
Yeah. Yeah, a good little town that one to start
of often always slip very well when I've stayed there
must be the dude.

Speaker 20 (01:16:30):
There's reasonably quiet. There's only about three vehicles here anyway,
camp of vends and.

Speaker 3 (01:16:36):
Our caravan year And what's going on your TV reception?

Speaker 20 (01:16:38):
Did you say, yeah, I yeah, I'm not too sure
what's what's causing it?

Speaker 9 (01:16:46):
Yeah, I don't.

Speaker 20 (01:16:48):
Think so much the reception as opposed to something that's
gone skewed with with the automatic satellite dish. Yeah, these
days are more they sometimes can play out.

Speaker 3 (01:17:03):
Have a good night. Chris likes to hear from you.
Greetings and welcome. At seven past ten, if you don't
want the rugby league score, shut your ears. It'll be
in the next you'll be able to turn yourad it
back on twenty seconds the scorers for all Melbourne scored first.
Then Cronulla has scored. You open your ears now people,

(01:17:26):
eight past ten. To save a bit of money, I
changed to all of my truck using YouTube. So now
I'm stuck with used all I know where to dispose
of garages, will take them for a fee that defeats
the purpose it isgestions. Please thanks Mac. What can you
do with used oil? People?

Speaker 11 (01:17:46):
Were?

Speaker 3 (01:17:47):
Can you dispose of it? Marcus Carol here recently went
to a VP another town and the pump was prepay.
We didn't paid to fill up my Honda Jazz. Came
out to get my car and drove off about a
clomme of down the road. It was the fuel lights
still on, and thought it must be faulty, but it
just fulled up. Then realized I hadn't put the petrol in,

(01:18:07):
went back and told them, and they wondered why I
had driven off a senior moment, I could see that happening. Yeah,
pre pay and then forget to fill it in. You're
talking about patterns and behavior, isn't it because you used
to paying them? Going entirely understandable, Carol. We've talked mainly
to talk about kingfishes, not kingfish kingfishes and putting the

(01:18:31):
wrong fuel in your car or other amateur driving mechanical
mistakes you have made. But we're talking about tonight. Someone
said evening super cheap. Also have a been outside for
used oil. Try them when do what they do with it?
I suppose they percolate it. No that's not the word.

(01:18:52):
I suppose they are distill it or sivot and work
out what to do with it. Yeah, that's what we're
on about tonight. Thirteen nine past ten to eleven minutes past, yeah,
past ten, I hit till midnight tonight. That's what we're
on about. So if you want to talk, it's been
a good show actually, but keep it going if you've

(01:19:13):
got calls it So we're on about tonight. Oh eight
hundred eighty ten eighty nine two nine two to text Hi, Marcus,
since it's Jenniferish's birthday this weekend, and how you're playing,
and you are playing a song, and for maybe could
come up with a new opening song. I vote for Journey.

(01:19:34):
Don't stop believing what a great song You're not wrong?
On and on and on. Get in touch with you
on a talk. As I've said, there's something else you
want to mention tonight, I've got no I'm not fuss
about what's on tonight. Anything goes, but you get in touch.

(01:19:58):
Oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty yep. Yeah, I've got
this whole article here to read about Lenin becoming the
new Into Island. I know that you guys like talking
about fairies and the NTO island port. That's something you
want to talk about too. Feel free to come through.

(01:20:21):
Just get that so I can read that.

Speaker 2 (01:20:22):
Dan.

Speaker 3 (01:20:26):
I think I actually mentioned this is sort of the
same article from the newsroom story. But there's a consortium
promising to cut the cook straight faury costing by two
hours by having the fairies arrive in Blenham. So yeah,

(01:20:47):
that's the thing if you want to talk about that,
a nine hundred million dollar fairy to them, like Clifford
Bay near Blenham. Yep, they're kind of comparing it to
Transmission Galley. I'm not entirely sure why. I can't quite
see what the connection is there. Oh, they've gone to

(01:21:09):
the National Infrastructure Funding and Financing the government's Agency for
Private Investment for public infrastructure has been considered in the
competitive Transmission Gully and showed that the port at Clifford
Bay was a no brainer. You're bringing out two major
islands an hour and a half closer together in sale time,

(01:21:29):
in our connection to our major cities, winning in christ
two and a half to three hours closer. This should
be a priority for anyone that's looking at how this
country develops economically. Yep. So they've found out while Transmission
Gully saves drivers an average of nine minutes, this will

(01:21:50):
save one hundred and fifty minutes. Therefore, it all stacks
up has been a really really good idea also with
road deaths too. Ten to four Melbourne, Kennet's Marcus.

Speaker 30 (01:22:03):
Welcome, Yeah, good ma, guess how are using?

Speaker 7 (01:22:09):
I good?

Speaker 3 (01:22:09):
What's happening?

Speaker 19 (01:22:10):
Ken?

Speaker 12 (01:22:11):
I just come to be on housebound unfortunately? No, no, yeah, yeah, anyway,
I just got a little story about uh what you
mentioned white fade a wee while ago. Can I talk
to you about that?

Speaker 3 (01:22:29):
Of course? Yes.

Speaker 12 (01:22:32):
Well, I used to live in Graymouth. My dad's family,
as a backstory, lived in Graymouth. He came from Graymouth,
and when I got married, we made the decision to
go down there and buy a house, which we did. Anyway,

(01:22:53):
early on in the piece, uh lovely Tuesday morning, I
went downtown after i'd for this work, and the Bank
of New Zealand used to be.

Speaker 4 (01:23:06):
In my for key.

Speaker 12 (01:23:08):
I don't know where it is now, right right on
the wharf wolf edge coast of the river, and you
could see, you know, you could see the see blake
down on the other side of the river. Anyway, I
would go to the bank. So off I went to
the bank and whilst in through the door to the

(01:23:35):
speed there's no tell us.

Speaker 4 (01:23:37):
He was usually two girls tell us from there. Okay,
the manager wasn't there. I'm going there. There's been a
stick up or something. Anyway, walked out the door and
they were over on the riverside.

Speaker 12 (01:23:57):
The all the stuff were over on the river side
of the of the of the key girls stripped off
their pantyhose. Okay, they were down the side of the
wall and the white bait were running, and I mean
they were running. It would just look like a It

(01:24:21):
looked like a silver mine. And they were down the
side of the down the side of the wharf with
their pantyhose, scooping up this bait and dumping dumping into
these what pails they could find. There was a wood

(01:24:41):
metalworking guy along the kea bit feather he got cleaned
out of all the bucket stick that he used to make.
And they was keeping up this this bait and I've
never ever seen anything like it. There's a couple of guy.
There's a rock in the middle of the river, straight

(01:25:02):
over the road from the straight opposite the fat and
there was as a rock and there was a couple
of guys had their little dinghy tied up to this
rock somehow, and they were scooping bait like it, like
just bucket falls of bait into their containers. Look like

(01:25:25):
I was going out of fashion.

Speaker 4 (01:25:26):
You've got no idea.

Speaker 3 (01:25:29):
It's a great it's a great story, and I believe
it as well. What year were talking? Nineteen seventies?

Speaker 12 (01:25:34):
Oh this is this is the seventies, Marcus. I just
got married and we shifted back to the sort of
family seat as it were, and and yeah, I was
sort of familiarizing myself with the place. And yeah, there's
certainly other thing, but you know, I just thought I

(01:25:55):
dropped that into you like it?

Speaker 3 (01:25:57):
Ken, I hope you've got house bound for two. Long
good story, Neil Marcus.

Speaker 15 (01:26:00):
Welcome, good evening, Marcus O Poly's well review. Marcus. I'm
an old man now. My dad bought a car mid
to late forties, and he piled all the kids in
and we were chugging along. He only had one eye,
so he needed a stain and watch and a port

(01:26:20):
lookout for the edge of the road, you know, And
we were going along and it's fluttered run out of petrol.
There was no garage. And then he went in this
shop and he cleaned him out of all his containers
of rons lighter fuel put that in and it waked Marcus.

(01:26:42):
It got us on our way.

Speaker 27 (01:26:45):
Wow. Yeah yeah.

Speaker 15 (01:26:48):
So if anybody says lighter fuel shouldn't work, well it
jolly well did, mate.

Speaker 3 (01:26:53):
It must have got a lot of that.

Speaker 15 (01:26:55):
Oh, he was a troller skipper.

Speaker 29 (01:26:58):
He came home.

Speaker 15 (01:26:59):
We had his settlings, pockets full of money and no sense.

Speaker 3 (01:27:04):
Not to hear from a new magazine seventeen past ten.
Oh two things I haven't thought of. One was daylight
saving on this weekend. Also, someone said there has to
be reminders all the time. Now there's none. I think
what happens is our cell phones just ultimately adjust. I
think that's probably why we don't need to be reminded.

(01:27:25):
The other thing, of course, the All Blacks play tomorrow
night at the Fortress, as they call it. I don't
even know what to say about that. M I'm not
gonna have a sweepstake for it. It was too boring.
Last time. It wasn't boring. It just it just it
just it just wasn't that interesting. So neat you want

(01:27:48):
to invent a really interesting way for a sweepstake. I
don't know what it is, but that's tomorrow. Presume that
the All Blacks will win that. I was saying that
kind of thinking maybe that I'll jinx that. I like

(01:28:09):
Australian way, the way they play rug. We always sort
of quite enjoy Australia. They've been the underdogs for a
long long time, but they always play with a certain
amount of vim and vigor. But we need to acknowledge
that's happening tomorrow. Blossom Festival tomorrow in Alexandra would.

Speaker 5 (01:28:28):
Be a big day.

Speaker 3 (01:28:32):
Yep. I think it's quite not a hot day in
alex tomorrow. Unfortunately, it's the beginning of spring for a
lot of us and the local body elections on You
should vote. What you need to do is you need

(01:28:52):
to full in that form and then find a box
in one of the local shops and deposit that in
that box. Vote for who you like, but just vote.
Someone said waste oil is good for painting fences. Haven't
heard that. Marc has just looked at Clifford Bay on
Google Maps. To shallow beach exposed to the ocean, we'll

(01:29:16):
need a long pier, no safe port in a storm. Crazy,
that's Gavin Canterbury.

Speaker 17 (01:29:26):
Remember.

Speaker 3 (01:29:26):
For a long time they're trying to work out where
to move auckland Port too. Now they don't talk about
that anymore. Don't know why got to move it to teams.
They're going to move it off Middleway, which seemed crazy
to me. But yes, no discussion anymore. You've gone quiet
on that. Hit'll twelve. You ought to be a part

(01:29:47):
of it. Moname is Marcus Good evening eight hundred and
eighty ten eighty. The lines are free if you want
to start the whole discussion and the local news that
you've got for you still, the Herne Bay fire is
leading on one site with local news South and Stags

(01:30:11):
got a hiding, well not a hide, and they came
back quite well on that one. But yeah they didn't
win it. They were beaten by Tasman. But that's about
everything I can tell you at the stage. I'll see
what's happening in the UKA ten for Melbourne of a
Cronulla if that's important to you. This is the semi final.

(01:30:43):
Now that's about what I've got for you tonight. I'm
sure Trump's up to something. I just don't quite sure what.
I don't know that I care. Actually it's all been
a bit much, but line's free. Twenty four past ten
Email here Marcus Clifford Bay has been previous to mister

(01:31:05):
It's only eleven case from Senn which was the epicent
of many major earthquakes in that Mulbra area. No one
in their right mind would spend none of the million
to build a major concrete port and ferry terminal and
the center of it now an earthquake zone. Insurance companies
wouldn't want to borrow it. After paying out vast amounts
to rebuild the Port of Littleton destroying the Crosstitch quakes,
you there need to knuckle down, stick with existing and
upgrade infrastructure as the at the far too many ports

(01:31:27):
we already have. Although I would say that we're going
to rebuild, well, they have rebuild the ferry terminal at Wellington,
which is literally right on the main fault line through
the country. So yeah, I don't think that's been stop
people in the past with infrastructure. It's very hard and
he's even to go anywhere that's one on a fault line,

(01:31:49):
because the whole country is just a mess of fault line.
But yeah, we will discuss that. And also fuel and
putting the wrong fuel in your car, diesel in a
petrol car or petrol and a diesel car. Guess another
good thing about the battery cars. You can't put the
wrong fuel in, can you? He's we had any one
winding about electric cars for a while. People used to

(01:32:10):
get quite triggered about those. Oh what about a power card?
What about this? What are them catching fire? They've gone
quiet on it. Tenate Melbourne of a Credolla kick to
come you to a look where Niko is for this one.
It's well on the what do they say on the
tram lines on the edge. He won't get it. He
won't get it, he won't get it. Maybe the kick

(01:32:30):
has already been I know. Here it comes now, Jim.
This is Marcus. Good evening, Hi Marcus.

Speaker 27 (01:32:42):
I oh good, thanks. I've got quite an interesting long
fuel story. Yeah good Yeah. The years before I retired,
I worked for a mobile you know, and serve the
stations yep, now one of them. One of our stations
I worked at the inner city. Buses used to come
in at the end of their runs and fuel up yep,

(01:33:02):
and then the park you know, on the on the
site really for the the driver. The next day, anyway,
one of the drivers came in and put about diesel.
They're all diesel, of course, and he put about between
about two hundred and three hundred dollars worth of petrol.
So it was a bit of a major you know,

(01:33:23):
I had to get a mechanic out and quite a
few big containers, you know, to take the petrol out. Yes,
but there was an embarrassing sort of side story to this.
The mobile cars which all the drivers had, were restricted
to diesel and all only. Oh so the driver finished up,

(01:33:45):
he paid for it himself out of his own card,
and of course Winter City compensated him later. So it
was a bit of an embarrassment all around.

Speaker 3 (01:33:54):
Yeah, so what was he using his own card?

Speaker 27 (01:33:57):
Yeah, well the mobile card which they all carry, it
doesn't didn't take petrol, restricted to the diesel and well only,
but you know, just to pay for the petrol which
you'd actually put he just chose to pay compensated.

Speaker 3 (01:34:19):
And I understand what we say now, Jim, thank you
for that, and thank you for explaining that for me.
Just coming up to the headlines, if you do want
to talk on air, good we are here till twelve.
It would be nice to hear from you. It's fuel,
bad fuel and the wrong cast stories. If you've got
one of those liking these a lot. Oh eight eighty
nine to text you want to come through? Thanks, need

(01:34:42):
to twenty nine from eleven here till midnight right for
the rest of the day. The weekend will be a
short one because of daylight savings, which is sad. Isn't
it always like a long weekend? But this is not
that long weekend. It's shorter. You do think that the
government thinks the whole reason and the whole way to
rescue our country is more consciously than park, don't you.
It's all the narrative. Now, Oh well, I'm still not

(01:35:04):
quite sure who's going to come. I mean, there's only
so much each cheer and we can put up with.
I think he's again here next year. Be a part
of we want to talk. One of is Marcus welcome, Welcome,
Welcome hitdle twelve. Someone has texted me. Dan's emailed me
he's listening from n Z eight San Francisco flight to
Part eight twenty two, heading for San Francisco in the

(01:35:27):
middle of the Pacific. So yeah, you can listen to
the radio on the plane on the I've never done that.
I'm onto the movies with those things. The movies I
haven't seen, but yeah, if you want to talk on it,
it'd be nice to hear from you. Hello, Jimmy, this
is Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 31 (01:35:45):
Hi jim I was going to tell you a good
story about the pulling up the car with the wrong field.
I had him just got a job, a new job,
and just got a work chart, probably about a week
in and I went to the gaes Stasion and brought
it up, the diesel up with petrol.

Speaker 7 (01:36:01):
Wow.

Speaker 31 (01:36:02):
And I was wondering why the power wouldn't the card
wouldn't work in it, that was why. And then and
then what happened, Well, then a lady there was like
gold the seven to me last week, I'll help you out,
and she went across the road and it was a
sort of like a mechanic over the end. He came
over and towed my car to the mechanics and they
only charged me like one hundred and forty bucks drained

(01:36:24):
the fuel out. And then I mean, I said him,
can I still use the fuel in my car because
you don't got it entertainers and you can take it home,
but you're going to be careful because it's got diesel
on it. And it's okay. I'll just filter it through.
I'll just filter it through like over time. It was,
you know, like I bellow, that was ninety one, and
then i'll put it but in it's just a little
bit of diesel and he that should.

Speaker 9 (01:36:43):
Be all right.

Speaker 3 (01:36:45):
It sounds like you got off it quite cheaply.

Speaker 31 (01:36:48):
Yeah, well I didn't actually, because I had to pay
for it the premium myself, and I couldn't tell her
work about it either.

Speaker 2 (01:36:56):
Why not?

Speaker 3 (01:36:56):
But why not? It was an honest mistake, wasn't it.

Speaker 32 (01:37:00):
Look at this what we just hired.

Speaker 3 (01:37:02):
Yeah, okay, fair enough, okayed.

Speaker 31 (01:37:05):
Me to be a manager, not give them problems.

Speaker 3 (01:37:09):
Yeah, in my line will work if you're on here.
You know, you can do anything, You can do no wrong,
and it'll be different. And I suppose that when you
come as a manager and make such poor decisions.

Speaker 31 (01:37:17):
Yeah, unless my advice is at homeless thing now.

Speaker 3 (01:37:22):
Thank you, Jimmer twenty seven away from eleven Headle twelve.
Text and emails. Look, I like what you've got people,
Good on Jim Arah, save the gas, good honor. Text
If you've got them, we're getting rid of the text
machine tomorrow and they're going to a brand new one.
Have you seen the wool, worst product recel on the mints.

(01:37:44):
It's been a week of product recels. Yep, makes sense.
Furies leave the sounds, turn them on into reserves. An
interesting daylight saving stories. If anyone's got me, I'm out
of daylight saving stories. I've spent devoted too much of
my life to daylight savings. But do come through if
there's anything else you want to mention. Six away from

(01:38:07):
eleven o'clock. Oh gosh, just to remind it. If we won,
the rugby is on tomorrow at five o'clock, not seven o'clock.
Thanks the text that reminded me. I forgot that I
was aware of that. I don't know if I was
aware of that. Let's just put it that way. So
that's handy, and I probably would have missed it. So
see five o'clock not seven o'clock tomorrow night.

Speaker 4 (01:38:26):
Hello Kyle, evening, marguts.

Speaker 14 (01:38:29):
Kyle.

Speaker 4 (01:38:31):
I've got a fuel story for you, mate. Some years back,
the BP used to say came out with some gold
fuel or something. I don't know what. It was, ninety
one or ninety five or something. I was in a
little diesel truck and we were nearing empty, so we
pulled into the VP and they never used to have
the little lectures that the diesel have now.

Speaker 27 (01:38:51):
Yep.

Speaker 4 (01:38:52):
Yeah, so you wouldn't make that mistake. Anyway, I didn't
manage to. So I started fueling up this truck with
this gold figured it was the diesel, and I see
some of my coworkerss like, this diesel smells like petrol,
you know, her up to about fifty leaders at the stage,
he goes it might be, and I looked at him

(01:39:14):
like it is. Stop the pump again, and I says
to the guy, we actually hit a van that took fuel,
so the company card covered all of them, you know,
all the fuels. So anyway, we had to ring truck
stops and the guy come come around with a barrel
and a pump and pumped it all out.

Speaker 12 (01:39:34):
And he says, you should be right, you know, a
little bit of petrol for a diesel engines.

Speaker 4 (01:39:39):
Fine, that's the other way. A diesel will clean out
your your picture engine, but not too much. That glass caller,
her car engine would have been nice and clean, I'm sure,
and I hit a long clean by the sounds of it.

Speaker 3 (01:39:55):
Yeah, anyway, I think the key way you keep going yep, anyway.

Speaker 4 (01:39:58):
Yeah, yeah, you're right. Yeah, I hadn't actually started the truck.
So yeah, the truck stop guy come over and we
towed it over and took it all out, and then
we pushed this truck back over to the pump and
he goes he reaches over and he grabs the sploody
gold some are you sure you want to do that?
He's like, but what I put that field in?

Speaker 12 (01:40:19):
Mate?

Speaker 4 (01:40:19):
This when I just put it? Oh, I wouldn't. It
was quite confusing. There was yellow and green and gold.

Speaker 2 (01:40:27):
Mate.

Speaker 4 (01:40:28):
We were like, oh wow, yeah, so it's an easy
mistake to make if you're not paying attention.

Speaker 3 (01:40:34):
Well, I think it's all right if you realize when
you do it, because when people drive it away, I
think it does the damage. From all the calls i've
heard tonight.

Speaker 4 (01:40:41):
Yeah yeah, that's yeah, I think that is the problem.

Speaker 3 (01:40:44):
You So you're smart that you'd realize. Nice to hear
from your Kyle. You're Dave. This is Marcus welcome receiving.

Speaker 2 (01:40:50):
How a Marcus thirty points to Penrith eighteen points to Brisbane?
How does that sound?

Speaker 3 (01:40:56):
But that's not the match on tonight? You know that,
don't you?

Speaker 9 (01:40:59):
Well, I know I know that.

Speaker 12 (01:41:00):
Yeah, I know that.

Speaker 3 (01:41:01):
Are you watching that? Are you watching it? Are you
watching the match tonight?

Speaker 2 (01:41:05):
Who is it? Make? Because no I'm not.

Speaker 3 (01:41:07):
It's Melbourne Cranella. It's the other semifinal.

Speaker 15 (01:41:10):
Oh what's give?

Speaker 3 (01:41:13):
It's just gone halftime now Melbourne School Predella scored, Melbourne
School Cadeller scored. Melbourne scored twice. So sixteen eight to
Melbourne at halftime.

Speaker 2 (01:41:24):
Oh sounds good. Melbourne has read hof. I think there's
is Penrith. Mark's the reason I've actually phoned these nonsense
heads on the On the TV one there's a Gerbil
running on a keyboard for Spark and the other one
is Ami insurance with a seal in the bath. He
obviously knows how to turn a bath on and then

(01:41:44):
pedals around in it. He gets through the dog door.
I mean for me, for mine, it insults my intelligence.

Speaker 3 (01:41:51):
I think it is, Well, don't go with Spark, and
who's the other one for the seal.

Speaker 2 (01:41:55):
Ami Insurance, I'll get to on the bar, get through
the dog door.

Speaker 3 (01:42:00):
What's the premise is? Are you covered for insurance against
seals coming into your house?

Speaker 2 (01:42:05):
Exactly? He gets through the dog door and they're sitting
on the beach, and she says.

Speaker 27 (01:42:09):
Oh, I hope, I hope, I hope.

Speaker 15 (01:42:11):
I locked the dog door.

Speaker 2 (01:42:12):
For goodness sake, and there's a seal that got through it,
and it knows how to turn the bath on. Obviously,
put the plug in, fill it with water and play
around so the water's coming through the ceiling. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:42:25):
Thanks, I haven't seen this. We used to have a
sea line and bluff poine off. I haven't seen it
for a few years. That could have done that, but
there hasn't been around.

Speaker 2 (01:42:31):
I remember Elizabeth on the banks of the Avon River,
going back by the bow bridge. That's going back a
wee ways that it's going back thirty some years. Probably
it's here. They wouldn't fit through a dog door, mate.

Speaker 3 (01:42:44):
No, they didn't get a You didn't get occasional visits
and Christis didn't you?

Speaker 4 (01:42:48):
Yeah here come up by the history, I suppose.

And yeah, yeah, anyhow, I thought i'd put my too
things for the update on Melbourne.

My Sunday? I think with Penrith, isn't it.

Speaker 3 (01:43:11):
I'll check that out for you.

Speaker 2 (01:43:14):
Radio and no word on the All Black VERSI, what
do you think too strong?

Speaker 3 (01:43:19):
Well, well, I'm sick of the fortress. I hate, I wish.
I think it'd be easy for everyone if we no
longer are beating it Eden Park, but I know people
love it. But yeah, I don't know. Maybe a drawer.

Speaker 2 (01:43:33):
Right, mate, I'll go Australia by six that the.

Speaker 3 (01:43:38):
Game seven o five on Sunday, Roger Penrith, thank you,
but that would be six o five if you don't
move your clock, so it'll feel like six o five
for the day like that'll that'll that'll shake you around
one daylight savings get you coped.

Speaker 2 (01:43:53):
With that, mate, springs for it. Annoy It does annoy
me a little bit. Markets I'm know, not even to
chip my clocks for the for the whole year. Mate.

Speaker 3 (01:44:05):
You do you starve a nice to hear from you, Dave,
thank you? Eighteen to eleven, eighteen to eleven, brilliant. Do
you want to be a part of it?

Speaker 5 (01:44:18):
That's what we're about.

Speaker 3 (01:44:19):
I thought he's going to go on about the car
that splits in half. I think that's going to be
quite of a loved commercial, that one. It's quite clever. Yep.
Now let me see anything else around the world I
need to tell you about tonight. Yep. UK fuel retailers

(01:44:42):
accused of ripping off motors at the pumps market shrag
off latest Trump tariffs s space over Danish city of
Albourg closed again last night after reports of drone sightings.

Speaker 21 (01:44:56):
Yep.

Speaker 3 (01:44:58):
Abu Dhabi Royal family to take steak in TikTok.

Speaker 19 (01:45:05):
Yep.

Speaker 3 (01:45:06):
It's about all I've got for you tonight people. But
if you want to talk on air, we've been only
talking about putting the wrong fuel in your car, which
has been interesting. So if you want to talk about that,
met tear from you. Oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty
Marcus my son had a new hold in ute. He

(01:45:28):
was traveling from palmerstonalf to Wellington for work and exit.
He filled up with a Petron set of diesel and
just after sharing this arrest deep hill of the ute
sput it and Bunny hopped. Had to call for assistance
and tank had to be dedrained. Expensive mistake. Chairs Mary
Clifford Bay significantly safer than route depict in as it
avoids Tory channel, which is an excellent way to happen
and would result in catastrophic loss of life. Seismic risks

(01:45:52):
equal in Willington and picked him. But it can be
engineered too in Clifford Bay to make more result. Infrastructure
clicked down major islands Clifford once in a lifetime opportunity
for growth. I reckon, we've got to get the infrastructure
right this country. One thing Ossie doesn't do is give up.
That's from Murray, Thank you Murray. And apparently there's a

(01:46:14):
Woolworth's recort recall on their mints. I'm not across there,
but that's happening. It's fourteen away from eleven about this
time that I can't ask if you'm doing anything. He
might be out in an uber or doing something interesting.
To know what's happening, what the state of the city
is like. There's much happening out there in the big
smoke or in the small smoke. Do you want to

(01:46:35):
talk about that? That's of interest to me. Also talking
about daylight saving and kingfishes, the birds, not the fish,
not the kingfish, but the kingfishes. I know we're on
Bird of the Year, which I always find is not
my jam Bird of the year. People get very very
excited about that. But if I was involved. I think
probably the Kingfisher needs to probably have a bit more

(01:46:58):
time to shine. It's a great bird. It's twelve way
from eleven. If you want to talk before the news,
that would be greatly appreciated. I know a lot of
you have probably gone to watch the rugby league. I
have a problem with that. I hope you're enjoying it.
But get in touch. You've got to talk on air,
as I say, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty nine
two nine to text. Yep, we'd love to hear from

(01:47:22):
you if you want to come through with anything. Anything
you do want to talk about. Yes, Aaron Patterson's car
is for sale on Facebook marketplace mg suv price to
sell quickly. No surprise is there?

Speaker 2 (01:47:44):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (01:47:44):
Just as a completely separate chop topic. I know it's
the Ossie Rules final. If anyone finds the AUSSI Rules.
How's that season been and what's the end looking like?
Is it this weekend or next weekend? The final? I
think it might be a week earlier. A lot of
Brisbane people have gone down to Sydney for gone down
to Melbourne for that. So you talk about that if
you want to. You here till twelve. You want to

(01:48:06):
be a part of the show before the end, get
in touch. You might have planned for the festival for
the weekend. You might be off to the Alexandra a
Blossom festival. That's a big deal in the South, always
famous for sort of battles between shearers and people from gold.
But I think it's kind of died down a bit now.
I think they've got a big they've got a very

(01:48:28):
big lick a kind of curfew area for it now,
so that's happening too. But yeah, talking about ten eight
minutes of the news. If you want to come through
before then, so eight hundred and eighty ten eight nine
two to text. There's anything different you want to mention,
I can handle that, So I get in touches. You

(01:48:53):
want to be a part of the show. Now, let
me think what else I can tell you tonight. I'll
keep those texts coming to people if you want to.
And nine two nine two is the text number. We
are changing the text company from Monday. I don't know.
I don't think it's going to be any different, that's
what they say. I think it's still going to be

(01:49:15):
twenty cents. But yeah, well i'll tell you to let
you know more about that on Monday. I think it's
still going to be nine two nine two. I don't
know why they've done it. Haven't been across though.

Speaker 2 (01:49:24):
Well.

Speaker 3 (01:49:24):
I've had some warning, but don't know the actual discussions
for it. But yep, so be in touch if you
want to be talking about. Oh now, what's this the
Mount Monganui dragon sculpture.

Speaker 15 (01:49:42):
Yep.

Speaker 3 (01:49:43):
They've put a sculpture up which has breached by laws
and now the council has been helpful to find a
new place for it that we've made it themselves, scrap
metal kind of stuff. The statue was installed without council permission,
despite the couples off at a gift and maintain the statue.
The councilor that breached two by laws did not meet

(01:50:04):
the requirement of Civic Art policy or Public Art Framework.
Fair enough, you can't just have everyone dumping their tat
around the city.

Speaker 16 (01:50:10):
But there we go.

Speaker 3 (01:50:12):
So I think they're going to find a home for that.
It's kind of got nuts and bolts and stuff it's
made of.

Speaker 24 (01:50:18):
Yep.

Speaker 3 (01:50:21):
Our counsels love battles over art, don't they. That's always
a big thing for them. Seven away from eleven it
would be lovely to get you before the news, before
you get the news, before the news at eleven o'clock,
if you.

Speaker 5 (01:50:31):
Want to talk.

Speaker 3 (01:50:35):
It is Jennifer Rush's birthday this Sunday, so we're playing
her song. It's entirety before midnight tonight. How many times
have we done that? Dan?

Speaker 2 (01:50:44):
Dan?

Speaker 11 (01:50:44):
Three?

Speaker 27 (01:50:44):
Or four?

Speaker 3 (01:50:45):
Would it be?

Speaker 17 (01:50:46):
Really?

Speaker 3 (01:50:46):
Have we done it every year?

Speaker 16 (01:50:48):
If we?

Speaker 3 (01:50:49):
O CO didn't know that? So as you're right, suppose
we probably have. Of course it's the weekend this weekend,
so it's not the wrong day. We're doing it in advance.
Will be pleased to know. Now, let's have a look
at this giant iceberg of Antarctica, four thousand kilometers squared

(01:51:16):
it what was that big? It's down out of fifteen
hundred kilometeris squared. It's moving northward, so it's final drift north. Oh,
I love and escaped an escaped iceberg. But yes, that
might eventuate, that might get quite high around the country,
around the globe. But yeap, if you want to talk
on air before the news, that would be great. Second

(01:51:37):
half is about to start in the rugby league, and
do come through otherwise I get really and prepared for
the next hour, which would be a bit like this hour,
I think, but eight hundred eighty ten eighty. Mainly it's
about putting the wrong fuel in cars. That's been the
topic of the night. And Kingfishers, Marcus, have you ever

(01:51:59):
seen a Kingfisher expelled to crab casings? It is perfectly
round a palette which they vomit out. And oh, the
AFL Grand Final is tomorrow center bound it at four
thirty New Zealand time. It's between the Geelong Cats and
the Brisbane Lions. So a feline theme for that. The

(01:52:23):
Cats versus the Lions. I presume probably there hasn't been
those teams met in the final before. I might be wrong.
Always held the MCG always sells out one hundred thousand people.
The best game ross Ross so Geelong Cats. So there's
a Victorian team against a Queensland team, the Brisbane Lions.
I think AFL is quite making quite a lot of

(01:52:43):
headway into Queensland, it seems. And New South Wales. I
mean it always seems to have a fairly big crowd there.
Every time I've started watching a little bit, I quite
enjoy it. Good long games to watch. Actually, he gets
a very settled in to watch it. It's good. I
don't fully understand or I understand. I don't fully understand

(01:53:05):
the subtleties of the game, but you know it just
comes from watching, doesn't it. That's tomorrow, Sorry, I got
that right, Yes, Tomorrow, not Sunday. Thought they were always
the same week it as the NRL. Something might have
changed there. They might have changed them because they don't
want to compete with each other. I don't know who
blink first with that one. And also a little bit

(01:53:26):
talk about Clifford Bay versus picked in for the fairies.
Always enjoy a port discussion, Marcus. A few years ago,
I put pel on my diesel when this happened. Why
this happened was the garage misplaced the bowser with the
wrong color code. It cost the garage to train. I
was given a full tank of deesus commensation for the mistake.

Speaker 5 (01:53:49):
Marcus.

Speaker 3 (01:53:50):
Just wondering when they are going to be finishing the
greyhound racing season. It's a good point. It can't be
far away, I think when they announced it was going
to finish in a year. I know they're still racing
Escot Park because it's seen the advertisements. But I don't
know how long it's gone. I drive the bus and
christ I knows a lot of people walking greyhounds, a
lot more than normal. I wondered if people have retired

(01:54:12):
this already knows about when the greyhoud racing is going
to finish. I think it's a bad thing. By the way,
I've thought about that a lot. Only after we had
that experience and fog an it, I thought it was
the bad event. Actually, yeah, Carrie, this is Marcus welcome.

Speaker 11 (01:54:29):
Hey Marcus, how do you know these?

Speaker 23 (01:54:33):
You know he's Jolly double dick as I drive. Yeah,
well here's one point twelve years ago, maybe thirteen years ago.
I was doing the night shift from Warnington Auckland. Then
there was a bit of distrustful right, be honest. I
think the moon was out there. I think people went
to behaving themselves. But the one thing turned into another

(01:54:56):
later and running but late. Anyway, I was coming into
coming in the Hamilton, coming in and stop there and
I think I had a full rat of people and
had about been getting on off just coming in the
driveway and the jolly bus just stops, just eyes on me.
What the heap's going on? So anyway, I turned the
team and we're just wouldn't start this wound, just keep

(01:55:17):
what wound you. So anyway, we've got a mechanic out,
and the jolly thing was out of gas and out
of marcus. And it was pretty embarrassing. Literally, it was
like half past five. It was five o'clock in the morning,
and it was just then later and later, and the

(01:55:39):
mechanic come out. And it's not a simple manner of
just putting diesel. One way, with those things, You've got
to leave them, you know, and that takes time in itself,
and it's so embarrassing. Hey, people looking at me asking questions,
what's having to your bus? Well, you know, and.

Speaker 3 (01:55:56):
So here we how did it happen?

Speaker 23 (01:55:58):
Well, how it happened is I was taken over a shift.
And so what you're supposed to do is you saw
your bus up at the end of your So say,
for example, you go from a Walker and the Warrington,
you fill your bus up and then you know, you
put on the run sheet. In this particular driver, I
won't say who he is, but he Balls, which was

(01:56:19):
two hours from Washington, and so he didn't put the
name Bulls on there. He just put the hobbow reading
and so when I when I jumped in the bus
at night to take it up, I failed to see
a digit a couple of digits that were filled up,
you know, like you know, one hundred and fifty k

(01:56:41):
or whatever it was, you know, But I was just
expecting the bus to beat bull. Yeah, and so it
wasn't really my It wasn't my bault was you know,
someone should have put the location on where it got filled.
So yeah, and well to see when I hit the
side of the house and mcays ago here who makes

(01:57:01):
no mistakes, mates, makes nothing.

Speaker 3 (01:57:04):
So did you tell your persons? Did you fesce up?

Speaker 23 (01:57:08):
No, you'll see s up neck corn thing.

Speaker 14 (01:57:10):
You've got to be there.

Speaker 23 (01:57:10):
You've got to be honest and say you stuffed up
and kind of thing.

Speaker 33 (01:57:13):
So yeah, that was about.

Speaker 23 (01:57:14):
Tall feed in years ago. So the stranger if I
were only out a guess again, but I think we're
all sort of now.

Speaker 3 (01:57:23):
Will you say you are tonight? Carrie?

Speaker 28 (01:57:26):
Sorry?

Speaker 3 (01:57:26):
Where are you tonight?

Speaker 23 (01:57:28):
I'm just coming out of road through it make them
my way to topoor and fourteen vs.

Speaker 3 (01:57:35):
Good to hear from your thanks Kirie like it Keevin
touch eight hundred and eighty to eighty nineteen nine to
text oneas Marcus. Welcome Marcus. Thirty six years ago my
first Carameza sixty one six petrol. Driving with cousin home
Little River, fifty five k's from christ Church City, ran
out of guests in the middle of nowhere, had an
empty fuel can in the boot. Was late at night.
Stumbled out to a father's shed, found a forty four

(01:57:57):
gallon drum, tip fuel into the can into the car,
started with a coffin of splutter. Did that all the
way home. Wouldn't go fast than sixty five found out
the next day I'd used diesel loll at least made
at home.

Speaker 11 (01:58:08):
Ben.

Speaker 3 (01:58:11):
I start a new job with a company with an
older four wheel driver and a diesel. The boss asked
me why I didn't fill it up. I said, I'm
waiting for the low level light. He said, there isn't one.
Eleven twenty three. Jim Steen will be along at twelve.
What can I tell you? The rugby starts tomorrow at
five or ten past five five I think it is.
The AFL starts tomorrow at full thirty Daylight Savings starts tomorrow,

(01:58:38):
starts Sunday at two in the morning, and for those
that still haven't got their head around it. For people
that like myself that finish work at midnight, we love it,
but it feels like we're finishing work an hour earlier.
So yes, for people that do well for my shift,
it works for e very well because I feel like
I get to bed to a bed to bed an
hour earlier. I'm really going to bed at eleven. Well

(01:59:00):
it's actually twelve, but it's eleven in the old calendar,
So yes, for me, those six months of the air
are much being as sleepwise, so I'm excited about that.
So anyone got any daylight savings questions, I can answer those,
or about fuel, about running out of petrol. But slight
on the calls in this last hour, say we'll need
some of you. Want to come through or ring, I

(01:59:22):
guess is what I'm asking you to do for this
final hour. I don't really care the caliber of callers
at the end. Just don't be as angry as viral Jeff.
You would wake it up like a bee with a
sore head by the sound of things. So yeah, do
come through anything to add I'm here for your people.

(01:59:45):
Don't make me talk for the whole hour. I I
prefer my fridays to be more chilled out, trumps up
and on truth social going on about it. No surprises there.
And they found a human skull which indicates that humans
are older than we first thought. Yep. I don't know

(02:00:10):
what this means. Maybe we all came from China. I
think it was found in China. Sixteen ten fourteen minutes
Stift to go to Melbourne in the Rugby League. Pete,
this is Marcus. Welcome are yeah hi Pete?

Speaker 26 (02:00:25):
Yeah good yeah. Just regarding daylight saving ours, I'm more
fortunately all year round.

Speaker 3 (02:00:29):
Mark of course it should be. I'm always in because
no one likes to change. People die on the roads
because they feel disheveled.

Speaker 26 (02:00:36):
Yeah, well you think about it. Most people, I just
want to fear your callers say they get up early
in the morning. They do it, we're walking sort of stuff.
But most people they sleep or whatever doing theness wasted
daylight hours in the morning. But at nighttime you can
utilize that. You can cut the lawns even the winter
if you get an extra hour of daylight hours in
the winter, so you got an.

Speaker 25 (02:00:56):
Extra hour to playoff your kids who aready.

Speaker 4 (02:00:57):
They cut the lawns as well.

Speaker 26 (02:00:59):
You're also saving power because you got an extra hour
at night not to have your lights on in the
winter time.

Speaker 3 (02:01:05):
I think both. The only reason I got a problem
with that Pete if he's making the kids walk to
school in the dark.

Speaker 26 (02:01:12):
Yeah, I know, but when I was doing there, when
I was in London there for three winters over there,
you just get dune here about meantime half ass three
or five.

Speaker 24 (02:01:20):
Yeah, so you just got to get your hear around that.

Speaker 21 (02:01:23):
One.

Speaker 26 (02:01:23):
Can't please everybody, but really good thing to have.

Speaker 3 (02:01:28):
Yeah, I haven't quite looked out why hasn't gone perman
It would make more sense to me, I reckon totally.

Speaker 26 (02:01:34):
I don't know why. I don't know where would the
actually have a referee in the mineral or something. I'm
not to sure. They cost money, but not really. If
you if you vote, if you have your election on that,
maybe you'll be three years you put that refereen. It
doesn't cost that much more, doesn't really if you put.
If you do it all the same time, just put
a few more words in your in the election paper.

Speaker 14 (02:01:52):
What's the big deal?

Speaker 3 (02:01:54):
How's your campaigning for counsel going? Any more meetings?

Speaker 26 (02:01:57):
I went to the last one last night, just for
the mears, the baits you might see if you go
on line or see it all. There's actually quite interesting.
There's a lot of sort of almost like a punching match.

Speaker 3 (02:02:09):
Oh great, tell me about that. What happened?

Speaker 26 (02:02:12):
Ah, some sort of mes was sort of sort of
I sang, yeah, I might getting too much into it.
But it was a bit sad really because.

Speaker 3 (02:02:20):
Did someone throw did someone throw a punch?

Speaker 2 (02:02:23):
No?

Speaker 26 (02:02:24):
No, I'm just saying it's sort of a slinging mats
sort of thing about it. It's a bit sad and
you got to got to go that way about it.

Speaker 3 (02:02:31):
Who was the moderator? Sounds like bad moderation. Who was
the moderator?

Speaker 26 (02:02:36):
Ah, it's one guy from the Daily News. I I
know what his name was here, So he was actually
pretty good. So now I was a good No, I
was here to had my name tag on because in
the day is when you when you want to be
you know all about it. If you want to you
want to get your name in there for the counsels.

Speaker 24 (02:02:51):
They all do it.

Speaker 26 (02:02:51):
It's interesting when you go through this process. They all
try to get they all try to get in. They'll
put me a little the little brooches or whatever the
little flyers on on the seats and or whatever they
passing out of the door. It's like a it's like
a rat race. One you just try again and you
do your and it's like at a game of sport,
the best man wins.

Speaker 24 (02:03:10):
So here you get in.

Speaker 26 (02:03:11):
As long as you're doing it nicely. I don't see
nothing wrong with it. Just well, just side, just at
the front door there. And I said them, some of
the counts, as I get on, you all get on
pretty well. We all we will, we all mean well.
End of the day. We try to change what we've had,
try to stuff our spending pretty much, keep our rates
down sort of thing.

Speaker 3 (02:03:29):
Did you have flyers printed? Did your peepe?

Speaker 2 (02:03:32):
No?

Speaker 23 (02:03:33):
You just go on that.

Speaker 26 (02:03:34):
You don't have to do that stuff anymore. Markets you've
got I'm on the ukond Of District Council, so my
profiles on there.

Speaker 8 (02:03:40):
I don't have to do that.

Speaker 26 (02:03:41):
We waste money on that stuff.

Speaker 3 (02:03:43):
Oh yeah, sure enough. Okay, Well I don't have many
people going to those websites to look at it, do they?

Speaker 11 (02:03:50):
Well?

Speaker 26 (02:03:50):
I always say, do you only only got two or
three minutes when you have when you do have your
speech whatever it's for you for the meal candidate meetings.
So you you're not going to waste thirty seconds on
your profile, are you.

Speaker 3 (02:04:02):
You've got to streak it. You probably should streak it
a rugby match or something to get your file out there.

Speaker 26 (02:04:08):
Well thought about.

Speaker 3 (02:04:11):
Good on your Pete Darren, Hello.

Speaker 24 (02:04:14):
Yeah, I talk about dat. So yeah, people's crack up people,
I see people was a creak up.

Speaker 3 (02:04:24):
Yeah, crack up.

Speaker 30 (02:04:27):
But yeah, just daylight so means if you're a shop worker,
time means nothing. Okay, well it doesn't make like you
do night shift.

Speaker 2 (02:04:40):
Ye.

Speaker 30 (02:04:41):
Yeah, So you go to bed when you go to bed,
and you get up when you get up. Yep, that's
what I'm going to say.

Speaker 3 (02:04:48):
I think it's always good to be as close as
you can to the rhythms of the sun.

Speaker 30 (02:04:52):
Though, you know, well what are you doing night shoft then?

Speaker 3 (02:04:56):
Marcus, Oh I kind of. I can be in beard By,
I can be in beard by quarter past? Well yeah, god,
are you working now? Do you finish at twelve?

Speaker 9 (02:05:11):
I know I don't.

Speaker 24 (02:05:13):
Sucks or six?

Speaker 3 (02:05:14):
Oh yeah, that's a tough that's a tough one.

Speaker 4 (02:05:17):
We on for off.

Speaker 30 (02:05:21):
So when the daylight so many changes, that means nothing
to me.

Speaker 3 (02:05:24):
Oh yeah, sure, okay, fair enough. Good on you there.
Don't to get to a daylight saving argument, but good
on you, Tony Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 33 (02:05:33):
Oh there you go, Marcus.

Speaker 3 (02:05:35):
It tast tunny.

Speaker 2 (02:05:37):
You know.

Speaker 33 (02:05:37):
This is going back about thirty years old, kind of
like I never told anyone about this, so I've just
heard it on the radio tonight that you.

Speaker 4 (02:05:47):
Know, putting diesel in a petrol car. About thirty years ago.

Speaker 33 (02:05:52):
I was in Hamilton. I was coming back to Cambridge.
According to the gas station, just did my thing, grabbed
the hoes, put it and paid for it.

Speaker 28 (02:06:05):
Got down the road.

Speaker 9 (02:06:06):
Next night, the car started to jerk, jerk, jerk, and.

Speaker 33 (02:06:09):
Then it just stopped and I called over, damn, what's
going on? And I popped the bonnet and then I
went down to the gas station because I realized, hey,
you know, something's wrong here. And they took me around
the back and they showed me on the video me

(02:06:31):
putting the diesel and they set a petrol on the video,
and so I went, oh, damn, you know, and they said, oh,
you know, the only thing you can do is, you know,
you had to get it drained out and all this,
and I was sucking and just out of Hamilton, they're
making my way to cambridg So I got in touch

(02:06:52):
with the old mate from Cambridge to come over and
ton me back. Told me to Cambridge, and you know
I told why, you know, they litrics had gone and
you know I didn't tell anyone that I put these
in my petrol car.

Speaker 4 (02:07:07):
You know, I felt that stupid, you know, god to think.

Speaker 33 (02:07:11):
And so yeah, they told me to Cambridge and I
got it towed to the gas station, to the garat
and I told the guys there, yeah, the only one
that I told that, oh, you know, kind of like, hey,
I put these withn't he you know, And they said, oh,
you know that's all good.

Speaker 4 (02:07:27):
Well we'll just.

Speaker 30 (02:07:28):
Strain it out and that.

Speaker 33 (02:07:29):
And you know, I only talk about all about fifteen
minutes and it was back on the road again. But yeah,
I don't know, it just felt so stupid.

Speaker 3 (02:07:38):
You know, it didn't damage the car for the few
CA's you didn't.

Speaker 33 (02:07:42):
No, well, I just got down the road. It was
only about you know, kind of like a minute down
the road from the gas station that I had how
I had done it, you know, And then I started
to jerk, jerk, and then that and I realized that,
oh do you want to put theesel, wasn't it?

Speaker 3 (02:08:00):
I think sometimes it can damage the car, but obviously
that did in your case.

Speaker 33 (02:08:05):
Yeah, I was lucky and that way. Yeah, that it
just happened so quickly, you know, like because he said
that I just used the peture in the fuel line
just to get it out of the petrol station and
down the road. Yeah, you know, and then it counted
out as soon as it hit the diesel, because you know,
I was low on gas, so that there was another

(02:08:26):
thing too, where kind of like it just hit the
diesel pretty early.

Speaker 8 (02:08:30):
You know.

Speaker 3 (02:08:30):
Yeah, I've told everyone now, Tony, good on you for
fiscing up. Thank you for that. Twenty six to twelve
people weeple, sheeple oh e one hundred and eighty twenty
mon umers Marcus good evening. Text to email if you
can if you want to get through. Eighteen ten Melbourne
over Cranulla crowd played very well. Melbourne said, look quite

(02:08:51):
arrogant with the way they play and the way they say,
oh what is it home to It's that they got
the home crowd supporting them, so that's a bit of
a worry or worry come on if you want to
be a part of it. Before the end, we'll played
genniferation or entirety before twelve. She's sixty five. I also
asked about the Ryder Cup. If you're involved with the

(02:09:12):
Ryder Cup, if you've seen the Rider Cup. I've read
a book about the Rider Cup. I can't remember. It
was quite quite a big deal. I don't fully understand why.
I don't know what it's like as a TV spectacle.
I presume some of you will be watching, and I
presume it'll be on TV over the weekend. I don't
know where the course is, like they've where they've played it.

(02:09:32):
But yeah, if you want to be a part of it,
it's twenty five away from twelve. Some of you might
have been played the course where it's on the Ryder Cup.
I think it's in New York. Bethpage Black Course. Is
that where I've got that right? Yeah, beth Page Black Course.

(02:09:55):
I have a look at a Google maps, beth Page.
I'll tell you where it is Black Course Golf. But
if you want to be a part of the show,
that would be ideal before for the end, Oh, here
we go find out where it is. Opening maps. I

(02:10:15):
don't know how many golf courses there would be in
the United States compared with his end, and probably not
as many I would think. Let me think where it is.
Oh it's in a heavy industrial Oh yes, gosh, it
is right in New York. What is interesting? I'm glad
I googled that the bef Page golf course where the
writer cap is is a public golf course. So yeah,
owned by the government. And actually it's in New York.

(02:10:38):
But there's five golf courses in that one place. It's
pretty extraordinary. It's a massive area, massive amount of land,
an extremely difficult course. There's a warning on the black course.
It says warding the Black Course an extremely difficult course,
which we recommend only for highly skilled golfers. Peter's Marcus, welcome,
good evening.

Speaker 32 (02:10:58):
Oh, good name Marcus. So I hate being late for work,
and this particular day, the early caught the training got
a flat tire and I caught the trolleybus.

Speaker 9 (02:11:10):
Bloody thing.

Speaker 4 (02:11:10):
Really at the petrol I couldn't believe it, neither the bloss.

Speaker 3 (02:11:15):
No, it's a good story. I was thinking about the time.
Yet it's not making much sense. Okay, like it, Pete,
good one. You think, excuse me, thank you, Marcus. Off
to hot wheels with a five year old tomorrow, will
report on Monday. Take your ear muffs, so I was
selling a lot of them there apparently, hio Ron it's
Marcus welcome.

Speaker 28 (02:11:33):
Oh thanks, thanks Marcus. I've been up to Farmingdale where
Bedpage Black is actually wow, fifteen years ago, just before
the US open at nine actually, and it's pretty impressive complex,
five golf courses. There's all sorts of public areas and

(02:11:54):
it used to be owned by an industrialist who had
a private golf club there for his mates, and a
few years before he was planning to tire he decided
to give it all to the public, you know, give
it to the state, and he got his mates all

(02:12:16):
got pretty upset with him, but he handed it over
with millions of dollars and if he wanted golf to
be accessible to the public, and made a lot of
enemies and doing that obviously in those days and the
way back. But it's the most amazing public facility and

(02:12:40):
it's only about you know, I think I drove up
from New York maybe it was about an hour and
a half. It was in the middle of winter, so
the course was closed, but brutal course, long ruff around
the edges of the fairway.

Speaker 3 (02:12:56):
But flat.

Speaker 4 (02:12:58):
No, it's reasonably undulating in places, but generally flat.

Speaker 28 (02:13:03):
Yeah, pretty much. But it's not like a park and
flat of course like you get in England.

Speaker 3 (02:13:09):
So it's kind of amazing thinking about that. Looking at
that the American you know that the government owned course
could be one of the most sought after ones because
because I see all, you know, the people are ranked
it as sort of, you know, in the top ten
and all those sorts of things. So they've obviously designed
a very good golf course there.

Speaker 28 (02:13:24):
It'll be fun to watch because it's very tough, and
I think the eighteenth is actually a short path four
which is driveable where I think Lucas Glover won at No.
Nine and I think he drove the green and two
padded for a birdie. Did you want it when it
was very wet?

Speaker 3 (02:13:45):
Did you play?

Speaker 13 (02:13:47):
No?

Speaker 28 (02:13:47):
I haven't because when I was there, I was it
was in winter and it was frozen basically lock lockdown
for about four months because you know, the golf ball
hits frozen green causes damage. But yeah, it's an amazing facility,
that's for sure. Many beautiful golf course. It stuff on
Long Island, that's for sure.

Speaker 3 (02:14:08):
But when you look at such so heavily, such a
heavily urbanized area and the gold I mean it must
be hundreds of acres. It's just massive.

Speaker 28 (02:14:17):
It is massive. And that was his estate and there's
one little private golf club for him and his mates.
And then he thought, nah, I want to turn this
over to the public.

Speaker 4 (02:14:29):
Which is awesome.

Speaker 3 (02:14:30):
Will you watch it this weekend?

Speaker 28 (02:14:31):
Roun, Yeah, definitely, yeah.

Speaker 3 (02:14:35):
Do you know when it starts? It starts on Sunday?
Does it starts tomorrow?

Speaker 28 (02:14:38):
I'm not sure it Actually haven't really followed it. I've
seen it coming up, but I'm not a fan. I
love the opens, but bright a cap.

Speaker 3 (02:14:47):
I find it a bit h Yeah, I think you're
probably right right now. It might even been on now. Actually,
nice to talk. Thank you for that.
