Episode Transcript

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

Speaker 2 (00:11):
At be.

Speaker 3 (00:13):
Greetings, Welcome evening all, mina Miss Marcus httled twelve. I
just have got time. I'm thinking about things today, right,
He's what I need to say to you before too long?
Is the time you need to make your Christmas cake?
I forget when it happened, but yeah, the year has
crept up on us. So we'll be telling you when

(00:34):
to make your Christmas cake. I think it's sometime in October.
And also when to auder your Christmas ham. As we
say in this business, you're mutton ham. So that's all
coming up. Where's the year? God?

Speaker 4 (00:45):
Eh?

Speaker 3 (00:47):
I say this from time to time. What happens with
the year? It goes revery quickly till about now in
the next three months. Drag funny, that isn't it? And
all evens out in the long run by the time
the end of the year come. I think Jeep as
Creeper is at the end of the year. That's my theory. Anyway,
things to talk about tonight, well, there's a lot gosh,
and there'll be breaking news tonight. I don't know what,

(01:07):
but you know, we're all here for it. I live
in Hope, so I think it's we're going to be
a three topic night, might only a four topic night,
might only a one topic night. Oh by the way,
I never there was no warning we're going to get

(01:27):
these speed camera trailers. That's a weird thing, isn't it.
Anyone following that story there's going to be speed camera trailers.
I presume there's going to be someone in the ute
in the issue V nearby. But when did they ever
say we're going to get these? Have been following that
story speed camera trailers. But the question I have is

(01:50):
where are they? We need to warn people for the
first couple of days because we don't even know they're
bringing those out. Speed camera trailers. Yep, speed camera trailers
and no idea.

Speaker 2 (02:06):
They're a thing.

Speaker 3 (02:07):
I don't know where we've picked it up from. You
might have seen these overseas, never heard of them. They're
going to be trial in Auckland. To pay for your concerts,
you're going to get that's right. He has spend seventy
million to get people to come and perform in Auckland.
Trailers equipped with speed cameras are set to be rolled

(02:29):
out on using roadsides from tomorrow, and they're quite tricky
looking because they look a bit like they look a
bit like a four wheel drive off road camper van.
The first will be operating tomorrow. There nine more were

(02:50):
set to join the fleet over the coming months. Doesn't
say how many are operating tomorrow, it's more than one.
It says trailers. They take you going both ways, yeah,
day and night, detecting speeding river and whenever it occurs.
They won't be signposted, and they can detect speeding vehicles

(03:13):
from either side of the road and detect vehicles traveling
both towards and away from them. Cheaper yep. They have
security and tracking systems and are equipped with CCTV cameras
and arms systems. They are on the twenty four hours
a day, seven days a week, so I don't think
there'll be people nearby them. I think they're just pump

(03:35):
and dump. We don't say pump and dump, but just dump.
I think pump and dumps a sheer market term, isn't it.
I don't know how I feel about that spooky little thing.
I don't know what they need to be so big.
What's on their giant batteries with some little guy hiding
in there. Wow, I don't think they be any in

(03:57):
the South Island, would there? Steve Marcus good evening.

Speaker 5 (04:06):
Out with the cameras.

Speaker 6 (04:07):
Yes, there's one set up between Kicking Ninnie and Peppercorra.

Speaker 7 (04:13):
Just before we go, they.

Speaker 3 (04:14):
Causeway, Well that's dishonest. I said that. They said they're
sitting them up tomorrow.

Speaker 6 (04:21):
Well that's that's wrong because it was there about two
weeks ago as well, and then they took it away.
And now I'm speaking.

Speaker 3 (04:28):
Wow, they've been trialing today. Hey, did do you get
a flesh?

Speaker 8 (04:35):
No?

Speaker 6 (04:35):
I don't know. I don't know if I'm driving the truck,
so yeah, I don't know. It was just it just
looks like it's just a normal trailer worked like a
boxing on. It doesn't even look like cameras. You wouldn't
even know.

Speaker 3 (04:48):
No, because the old cameras, you get a flesh when
the flesh went off, you know, wouldn't you?

Speaker 7 (04:55):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (04:55):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yes, But I don't know if this
one these ones play.

Speaker 3 (05:01):
Or would you say? It was taking taking anywhereabouts.

Speaker 6 (05:04):
Between Kicking Innie and Pepper Coura.

Speaker 3 (05:06):
Oh great, okay, not on the motorway.

Speaker 4 (05:11):
Yeah, yeah, it's.

Speaker 6 (05:13):
Parked off just off the motorways. There's a lot of
bit parking here and it's parked in the just before
we go over the US wait bridge.

Speaker 3 (05:22):
That'll make a fortune. Yeah, okay, good until Steve thinks.
So they're already out there.

Speaker 1 (05:28):
There we go.

Speaker 3 (05:29):
They're tried, and it's back out there tonight.

Speaker 9 (05:34):
People.

Speaker 3 (05:34):
If people still flesh their lights when there's go past
speed cameras, I don't know. I mean, I think that
was sort of that was sort of ambiguously moral ground,
wasn't when you flesh your lights. Some people that are
not not gonna flesh my lights. It's good for people
to drive slob But yeah, each to their own, I suppose.
I don't think they prosecute people for fleshing their lights.
Every time I'm driving, having someone fleshes my lights, I think, oh,

(05:54):
there must be wandering stock because we do that. I
don't know if the wandering stock is a different signal. Marcuse.
I saw one of these trailers on Point View Drivers
Tarmaki last weekend. I was amazed to find out there
are people sitting in the speed camera vans. Yes, there are.
They've rebored people, but they're there. How's this for a

(06:18):
precious smug text Hi Marcus. A funny thing I've leound
over the years is if you don't speed, they never
bother you, just saying Colin, Wow, Marcus. I agree. There
was no real warning of the speed camera trailers. I
didn't even know they were a thing until I drove
past one on the Southern Motorway near Publicata on the weekend.
One of my passengers point out to me and told

(06:38):
me what it was. It was news to me, but
apparently it wasn't issuing tickets. It does say issuing toast.
It might mean to say toast. It was news to me,
but apparently it wasn't issuing toast. It's amazing. Yeah, they're
probably trying them out, aren't they. I think there's only
been everywhere Big Brother, Big Sister. Hello, Michael, this is Marcus.

Speaker 7 (06:58):
Welcome, Hello Marcus.

Speaker 2 (07:01):
How are you good?

Speaker 3 (07:01):
Thank you, Michael.

Speaker 2 (07:05):
I got a letter in them the other day, a
fortnight ago actually, so I got flashed by one of
them cameras, but I still haven't seen it.

Speaker 10 (07:13):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (07:15):
And it was actually just a warning. They said in
a letter that they were triling new equipment and that
this time around it was a warning. I was doing
sixty seven and a fifty. So take that colin.

Speaker 3 (07:34):
You should put it on trade, but that's a collector's item.

Speaker 2 (07:37):
Absolutely. I framed it and put it on the wall
beside the.

Speaker 3 (07:39):
Toilet it so it says your, It says your this
is your warning.

Speaker 7 (07:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (07:44):
So it gave me the area, that gave me the
street address or the street that it was on, and
how fast I was doing, and that they were trialing
new equipment and this time around it was.

Speaker 11 (07:54):
Just a warning.

Speaker 3 (07:56):
I don't know how to feel about that. I actually
feel quite good about it.

Speaker 7 (08:00):
I loved it.

Speaker 3 (08:01):
Did you see the trailer? You saw the trailer and
you felt the flesh?

Speaker 4 (08:03):
Did you?

Speaker 2 (08:05):
No? I still haven't seen it.

Speaker 12 (08:07):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (08:08):
Did they say where it was? Did they say where
it was?

Speaker 2 (08:11):
Befley Ham Road, bethy Ham Road in Tower?

Speaker 3 (08:13):
How could you put on Bethleyhem Road with the connotation
that's bad? Isn't it should?

Speaker 2 (08:19):
Well, it should be it should be sixty on bethley
n Road.

Speaker 3 (08:21):
But it's not a fifty and sixty sixty seven, isn't it?
Give will take the margins and your and your speedos
and your speedos record high, don't they?

Speaker 2 (08:31):
Absolutely? Just depends who you talk to.

Speaker 3 (08:34):
Nice I liked your tone, Michael. We'll keep you on.
I got a warning from LTSA that I was going
fifty eight and fifty k ere if one of those
trainers at fortnit Ago saying they're trialing them.

Speaker 11 (08:46):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (08:50):
I saw one of those trailers on Pointview Driver's Tammaky
last weekend. Richard says, I made four Christmas cakes last week,
feed them brandy each fortnite until icing ely December. Marcus,
can you remind me about the three packs snack for
the soup market from time to time. I've got what
they're called sami snap I think. By the way, here's

(09:12):
the way it works for us. The Christmas Cake day
to make your cake is the first Wednesday in October,
which is not far away. We've got daylight savings to
work out there. We've got Christmas Cake Day and your
Christmas Ham October the twenty four that's when the reminder
all happened. So we're four weeks away from that. Also,
maybe that five weeks. So these trailers, well, and they're

(09:35):
only in Auckland. Why is that cheap? I've reading some
interesting articles about this Constanton park. They reckon that. You
know that it's going to every time there's a constanton
park that your bar owners and your hospital people around
the country. They do it tough because all the money
goes out of the province is to go to Auckland

(09:57):
for Pink or Cold Play. So yeah, that's right. It's
suctioning all the money out of the regions and chucking
it into Auckland for their sugar hit. That's bad, isn't it.
He hadn't thought of that?

Speaker 7 (10:09):
Had you.

Speaker 3 (10:12):
Text and emails?

Speaker 13 (10:12):
You know?

Speaker 3 (10:13):
The drill seventeen past eight again? Touch welcome if you
ought to be part of the show. I've got some
texts speck. In the early nineties, a friend of mine's
dad got pulled over by a cop for flashing his
head lights. Ended up getting a ticket, which I'm not
sure what the actual offense was. I think it might
be I think it might be dangerous driving, because yeah,

(10:37):
I think there is an offence. Anyway, he went to
court to fight at the judge asked, and why did
you flash your lights at the speeding driver, and he
said because he wanted them to slow down, And the
judge ended up saying he achieved the ultimate desire effect
that the police were trying to do, and let him go.
Google Maps in the car tells you when speed cameras
are coming up anyway, So anyone that will with that

(10:58):
fart gets to drive fast, slow down for cameras, then
speed up again. I'm not sure why the police don't
just stop the maps systems hurting people. Same with the
radar I think people have been using since the eighties.
Not sure of the legal ins and outs of enforcing it,
but it seems odds with a fact. Please continduerly have
to find ingenious ways. Just disguise the camera. Surely, for
having the alert system would mean more fines than there's

(11:20):
a lot less speeding. And I don't think they're trying
with the trailers to disguise the camera. I just think
it's more efficient because it's unmanned and they can go
both ways. Marcus, I'm all for the new cameras to
reduce speed of the police that issue traffic gets back
to the beat to keep us safe. Well, there's no
chu that. There is zero chance of that, Marcus. Have

(11:43):
a radar detect does it pick up this new devil?
Don't understand. Don't usually speed unless overtaking. That's from Gwen.
I don't know Gwen. I know as much as you know,
I'm not the oracle of this stuff. At be in
touch if you want to talk about the drivers. Oh wait,
tent eight ten two detects also too. I meant to

(12:05):
mention this yesterday, but I mentioned it tonight. It's fifty
years since they have stopped the Littleton to Willingon Ferry
nineteen seventy six, be fifty years next year. So if
you want to talk about that, you might have been

(12:26):
on it. You might remember some of the boats. That's
good to hear from you before my time, can't well,
I guess probably not before my time. I would have
liked to have gone on it. The ships were called
two of them are called the Maldi, two are called
the Way He Need. Two were called the Lana and
the Honeymore. They were the ships. There is call for

(12:53):
it to come back again. I don't think anyone is
that serious about it. But you know, we love a ship,
and I love his ship. So get in touch. You
want to talk about that. Oh wa, eitight hundred eighty
ten eighty nine nine two detect fifty years or forty
nine years. But I'm slept for the discussion. If that
is something that's in your bread basket of things you'd
like to talk about tonight. Would love to hear from you. Oh,

(13:15):
eight hundred and eighty ten eighty nine nine to detext
and I'll keep your data with the news throughout the world.
But also too about these trailers. I don't know that
you did. Do see speed cameras on Google Maps? Could
someone fact check that for me? Not sure about that.
This person that's been injured the supermarket in west Auckland

(13:38):
in Hobsonville, people said they've heard a pop and a crack,
so a firearm has been discharged towards a vehicle. I
don't think that caused the injury, but that's pretty serious. Marcus.
You're allowed to request You are allowed to request the

(13:59):
photo from the speed camera because of the Privacy Act.
If you see a significant reflective object near your vehicle,
you should write in and say, as radar bounce off
flat objects, I'll go off a ticlar. I was actually
speeding chairs, sam Well. Surely the objects that are reflecting
off they'd be stationary, they would be going very fast
at all. And also your memories of the Wellington have

(14:24):
picked the the Wellington Littleton, Littleton Wellington Ferry. If you
got something to say about that too. That's what we'reng
about tonight eight one hundred and eighty to eighty nineteen
nine two, the text get in touch and these speed trailers.
I don't even know if the people that were running
the speed cameras were police officers. I don't know if
that was the case. You might know more about that,

(14:47):
But yes, for a lot of people, they just thought
there were cars, would knowing in them, But there are
people in them. It's a true story. In the world's
most boring job, you'd be on your phone, I suppose
looking at your cheeses. Headle twelve, Law and Order. People
love talking about a speed camera. Love talking about speed camera. Well,

(15:07):
by the way, wasn't that guy smug last night saying
is you all bottle your own peaches? Get off the grass?
What is now?

Speaker 14 (15:14):
Say?

Speaker 3 (15:15):
No one's buying peaches? And that's probably true. I think
we've kind of I think we've lost our love of
tin fruit? Have we too sweet? Maybe people making better choices?
Was he avocados? Mark? This is Marcus welcome.

Speaker 15 (15:33):
Yeah, hello, hello out there.

Speaker 3 (15:37):
That's about hello out there? Yeah, Hi, hello to you
and there too, Mark welcome.

Speaker 15 (15:42):
Oh, thank you very much. I want to talk about
the fairies.

Speaker 10 (15:45):
Yes, I.

Speaker 2 (15:48):
Was.

Speaker 15 (15:49):
I had the one of the opportunity to be on
the ferry from Littleton to Wellington way back in nineteen
seventy four. It was seventy four and it was great
overnight trip. You got on an evening and Littleton and
you got off next morning in Wellington and then I

(16:13):
was away up Drave straight through to Northland that day.
But I I just yeah, yeah, but but it would
have been great if we could have had a ferry
that went from Lyttleton to Wellington and then on to Auckland,
and I think it would be well patronized. I think

(16:35):
we're big enough country now to endure it. And the
fairy that I've just recently discontinued or decommissioned would have
been ideal for that trip on the return, like from
Auckland Wellington Littleton because a lot of truckies would go
on that one.

Speaker 12 (16:55):
It was.

Speaker 15 (16:56):
I still think that trip there was it was. I
can't remember the name of the faery that they've just decommissioned,
but the biggest problem that they've had been running these fairies.
Because I'm an engineer I'm a marine engineer. Is the
fact that they haven't been able to get the proper
engineers to run the run the fairies, to keep them going.

(17:17):
The engines are the main part of the Fairies, and
because they haven't had proper engineers, they haven't been able
to maintain the ferries to that standard. It's only a
short trip from Wellington to Victim, but I think they
could have could do a long haul from Littleton.

Speaker 3 (17:36):
Are we not training? Are we not training the engineers?
It sounds to me like the sort of marine engineers
you'd get would be coming through the apprenticeship system.

Speaker 4 (17:43):
Is that right?

Speaker 14 (17:44):
Indeed?

Speaker 15 (17:44):
Indeed, yes, that's the way I went. I served my
time in a marine workshop Angie Price and Thames, Oh yes,
and I learned all about diesel engines because that's what
we did, was these we built diesel shunters and whatnot
back in the old days, and we made things some
scratch and we learned everything. Unfortunately, those apprenticeships are no

(18:04):
longer there. But yeah, it's a shame. But however, that's
that's what we need, proper engineers.

Speaker 3 (18:11):
I haven't heard this. I haven't heard this before. That's
why they're always breaking down. Is it because I haven't
got proper engineers?

Speaker 15 (18:16):
Indeed? That is yes, it's the engineers a kick engine going.
We need the engines going. Otherwise the ship that breaks down,
and we haven't had proper engineers because they don't have
those sort of apprenticeships anymore like I did in my day,
which is brilliant.

Speaker 3 (18:30):
Make that's good. That's really in the bread basket. Gosh,
there you go. You want to aspire to being not
an engine not a TikTok influence of an engineer. They're
the skills we need. Oh, I think it's going to go.
Good tonight, keep in touch if you want to. Eight
hundred and eighty ten eighty Brian, Good evening, it's Marcus.

Speaker 8 (18:51):
Welcome, Ah, Marcus, a last call. Interesting look at the
Philippines and maritime nation. They have colleges. I think it's
a three year maritime engineers.

Speaker 3 (19:05):
We need an we need a maritime university. That's exactly right,
that's that's yeah.

Speaker 8 (19:10):
But you know, when you'll think about Philippine is a
quite well known as cruise on board globally ships. Really,
so you know, I think I think that that that
has to be the solution. I too, you know, I
used to catch that Ferria back in the early seventies,
seventy one seventy two. It's about eight hours. I believe
harbor entrance to harbor entrants, so it's eight hours steam

(19:31):
engine and then you've got to come into harbors. You
call it twelve hours. You'll leave at seven at night,
you get at seven in the morning, and those days
you'll had a cabin and it was a great trip,
you know. You bring it back. Now, keep the trucks
on the road christ Church to to Peck. Then you
can get ATV trains a night up there on a
Friday night, put those on a take those off the road,

(19:53):
and I think a lot of people would go to
Wellington on an overnight ferry. You know it's I do think.
You know, look at the cost of their tickets and
you know you've you get a free night's accommodation on
Friday night. Come next Sunday night you get another free night.
I think there is some merit, but of course it's
the willingness to look at it. Ah Brian wrote wrote,

(20:17):
I thought I was trying to think that I think
they were the rang. Was that the rang of Tira?

Speaker 7 (20:22):
Was it the ring.

Speaker 8 (20:23):
I believe they were and the way he was on
that wasn't it. And remember they when they last that
they had a lot of recovery of our vehicles and
so on.

Speaker 7 (20:33):
So yes, I think it is.

Speaker 3 (20:34):
But I know, I know in the early day some
of the cars were taken on by a crane. They
were lifted on kind of with straps, but I don't know.
I don't know what happened in the later years.

Speaker 8 (20:46):
Yeah, yeah, see there's another quick foot for you. You know,
they've talked about what they've done it, you know, the
new Faeries infecting. You know, I said, what don't we
just go and get a car carrier like you see
the maybe a bit big, but the car carriers overseas bed.
I believe they just built one seven thousand cars. They
drive them on and drive Morphan Brazil and so on.

(21:08):
You know, I still believe there's some other ideas that
it could work in New Zealand. In Wellington that I
believe the port authority was talking about moving down to
the end of the port, you know, that we don't
have to have the rrow all n roll off downtown,
which of course is very expensive. It just makes and

(21:29):
maybe they have been researched, engineers of research. But it
does seem that there are more options if you really
got into it. And you know, I just don't believe
we're looking at you know, that that form of transport
and depth enough. You know, I've got like the train
to earn the cargol to well to pick and get
that back on our students. And everybody is complaining about

(21:51):
flying the cost of flying. I'm surely people have a
little bit of time to catch trains these days.

Speaker 3 (21:57):
Not to hear from you, Brian, thank you. Twenty six
to nine. Sue, it's Marcus alone.

Speaker 11 (22:05):
Welcome O, Hi high Marcus.

Speaker 16 (22:08):
I just heard you say about it's fifty years since
they stopped all the theory from christ Church to Wellington,
which made me feel very old, and so I got
it and wanted to tell you this. When we were
at primary school a few years ago, we used to

(22:28):
have a trip which I went on and from a
school trip and we went over onto the theory, you know,
from Littleton to Wellington. And then we got there and
we looked around Parliament, which was fantastic and I've always
loved politics ever since. And then we went to the

(22:48):
zoo and we saw the tea party with the monkeys,
which I think wasn't the right thing, you know, they
pulled it out after a few years. But it was
fun and it was a great trip and it was
exciting and and you know, breakfast at a cafe and

(23:09):
coming from a family of nine where we didn't get
to go on big trips like that, I think it's
always been something I think about a lot.

Speaker 3 (23:18):
So I just had to Yeah, hey, se, just not
to friend you out. It's forty nine years. It's fifty
years next year since it stopped, but just that, Yeah,
but I think it's coming up.

Speaker 17 (23:32):
Sorry you go.

Speaker 16 (23:34):
Oh, I'm just saying I'm coming up nearly seventy six,
so it was a long time Agome.

Speaker 3 (23:40):
I think a lot of schools in christ did that,
didn't they. I don't think it so much came the
other way, but a lot of people, a lot of
school kids' primary school children would go to Wellington on
that on that far. It said to be a popular
class trip. Do you know where you stayed, Sue.

Speaker 16 (23:54):
We just stayed on the boat overnight and then got
back on the boat home again. So it was all
you slept on the boat there and back.

Speaker 3 (24:04):
Oh, you're just up there for the day.

Speaker 16 (24:06):
Yeah, yeah, and it was. It was pente and it
was wonderful. And I think we went from christ Church
to Wellington, you know, more than the other way, because
the main thing was to go to Parliament and weren't
about what went on there. And it's pretty awesome. And
a few years well, probably a few years ago, about

(24:26):
six years ago, I was lucky enough to see my
grandchildren up there at Wellington come from Nelson with their
mum and dad and they looked around in Parliament as well,
and I was thrilled for them. It's a wonderful place.

Speaker 3 (24:41):
Really nice, cool. So thank you so much for getting
go to bed. That was worth you if it loved
that twenty to nine. Tell you what you can do.
Get out your local body election forms and read the
candidate's profiles and tell me which ones are written by AI.
Most of them, I think terrible. Richard Marcus, Welcome, good evening.

Speaker 18 (25:03):
I remember I was about sixty six. I think Mom
took me to Wellington, to Littleton and just you know,
got a you know, sort of a memory of that
and went down on the Mary, which was a riveted ship.
And I remember commenting to me father when I got

(25:27):
home that the Mary creaked groaned all the way down,
and the Wahini was relatively quiet. And you know, the
Mary was a riveted ship, and they had that characteristic
with them that they creaked and groaned with the with

(25:47):
the seas, and and you know, came back on the
Mary probably two years before it sunk. But and I
can remember where we stayed. It was the People's Palace
in Chrost Church, which I think was the Salvation Army Hotel.
And I remember that because I set the fire all
off and we had the fire rigade there. So I

(26:10):
think Mom was pretty pleased to get home after all that.
But yeah, good trip.

Speaker 3 (26:16):
So what was the purpose of your trip?

Speaker 18 (26:19):
Probably well, basically, my father had worked for Union Steamship Company,
so I think he organized probably a tenth something to
do with me turning ten and Mum going down to
see the family member and and more to do with

(26:41):
that good stuff.

Speaker 3 (26:42):
Richard, Thank you, Hello, George. This is Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 9 (26:46):
Hey, hello, Marcus.

Speaker 12 (26:47):
Are we good Georgia.

Speaker 9 (26:50):
One of the interesting trips that I've done on the
until over the years was in late seventy four, my
family moved from christ from Walking to christ Church, and
then I did After Christmas, I decided to go and
business some friends back in Auckland, and one of insting

(27:11):
trips I did around here was actually a day crossing
from Littleton to Wellington, and then I did the experience
from Wellington to Auckland, which is interesting because I don't
why they call him express, because it seemed to stop
at every little station on the way and every person
would turn up and it was almost like a party

(27:33):
all the way to Auckland. Then on the way back
I was on the silver and Rail car and from
Auckland back to Wellington, and then I had the rangot
here back to christ Church, which left I think about
seven thirty eight o'clock that night. Now I wasn't feeling
that good, and interesting that the cabins in those times

(27:54):
were basically two sets of bunks and a little vanity
between them, and I was not the leccud so I
was lying in my bunk feeling on well. Anyway, three
or four guys turned up who also were booked in
the same cabin and they said to me, I listen,
our mate who's in the cabin down down the aisle.

(28:16):
Be good if we can swap. We'd like to go
and swap with him, and I said earlier, I'm not
worried about it. Anyway, I go to the bed, got dressed,
and next minute I threw up all through the cabin
into this, into my bed and over the vanity and
I said, there goes. Oh thanks, I'll see later, and
I walked out. Now, the look I got on the
face of those guys unbelievable.

Speaker 3 (28:38):
And I thought, well, what good reason.

Speaker 9 (28:41):
Yeah, it's an insane that aman to My family moved.
We've had family closets and family in Auckland, and we
had lots of trips. And I remember late sixty eight
on the Mary going out of Wellington and seeing white
Heney and the salvage barge him in our sitting there

(29:02):
as they're breaking her up. As interesting a because the
mayor shouldn't have been operating at that time, because they
should have taken over. But after she sank the marry
you had to come back and the last another couple
of years until they got something beckon. So a lot
of memories from that that crossing.

Speaker 3 (29:21):
Yeah, no, we'll keep going with those too, Georgia. I
appreciate that's a good story. Thank you fourteen to nine
if you want to come through here till twelve. We're
back on transport and firies and also the speed camera trailers.
No one likes, but that's the world we live in.
Keep those texts coming. I've forgotten about the texts to

(29:42):
Was he talking to the people? I didn't know there
was a daytime faery. Someone said, tesla's give a warning

(30:05):
about seven hundred fifty from the camera. Humble up. How
do speed cameras keep us safe? When they hide them?
It's all about the money. Well, they don't hide them.
They're on trailers, but I think you can see them.
Here's the tugboat headed south, arrived your way yet? Yeah?
Hell look, I'm kind of z up Bluff Hill today
on the far side looking for the for the tug

(30:28):
but had already gone. But what would have happened to
that ship? Because there's always ships weight in the and
fovo straight for the tides and the pilot. There's normally
three or four out there. But if you had lost
steering like that ship had lost. I think about that today,
what would have happened? Would there be some limited would

(30:49):
there be some limited steering? Their new giant circles or
what would happen? But you couldn't just keep going on
a straight line, or would they just have the engines off?
It was quite a big role in the water. Actually
you could you could. I was up the top of
the hill walking around the far side of it. You
can hear the boom of the waves crashing. There was

(31:09):
quite a big roll on. But if anyone could tell
me about that tug and about what the ship would
have done, there was an oulship. I think I don't
know what. Yeah, I haven't got the I'm just trying
to bring up the new story now, but I can't
see it. I can't haven't got the right key words.
You see, you're going to idea what that story was, Dan,
I've just put I've put tugged timid ship because that's

(31:32):
where it was going for I found it. Yeah, a
tug boat has reached an autochemical tanker struck off the
coast of Stuart Island. The Golden Mind was steering west
of the island on Wednesday and the ship and its
crew have been waiting there since. So what would they

(31:53):
do any marin is out that would just turn all
the engines off, or we'd just go very slowly. What
would happen? So them a vision which is the ocean
going tug. That's the one that ripped that boat off
the coast, remember that that that bar. Yes, so I
think they've got it all sorted because the weather's turning bad.

(32:15):
But yeah, get in touch with you or talked ten
away from nine Welcome Bruces. Is Marcus good evening?

Speaker 11 (32:23):
Hey am Marcus Bruce here bring the theory and the
theories to christ Church represented Willington. I just tell her
we used to take us a Wellington and rip team
down on the theory on the Friday night, play a
game of rugby league on the Saturday, bring us back
on the Saturday night on the on the same boat,
and go on to Auckland. The needs to put us

(32:43):
on the Oakloom Express on a Friday night, got to Auckland,
played the rugby league, represent the game, come back on
the bring him train on the Saturday night. There and
those on the boats, they've had about eight I think
of six to eight into wonder room and bunks on
the old on the old Mary.

Speaker 12 (33:02):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (33:04):
That's a pretty legionary rugby league weekend, isn't it.

Speaker 10 (33:08):
Yeah?

Speaker 11 (33:08):
Oh yes, I'll tell you what I went as my
first one. I went down as a ten year old kid.
I represented oneing and from from my time on most
ten to I was thirty five. So and that's how
they used to be. And they say Auckland was a
got Aukland trying to play those buggers. And you know
you've gone up the train what was rattled in shaped
or the ferry he rocked and rolled on the corooks strade,

(33:30):
you know, and they wondered why we could never win,
you know, and they put us on planes. And but
he went down in a two days beforehand. It was
down there on the boat and come back on the
same night.

Speaker 3 (33:39):
Christ Chach has always been Bruce Christchich has always been
pretty strong in league, isn't it sorry? Christ Church has
always been pretty strong in league.

Speaker 11 (33:48):
Oh yeah, well christ Church in the West Coast. Yeah,
because well that that was another thing. They'd take you
down on the ferry you play on the Saturday, play
christ Church, then take you on the train trained to
go over to the West Coast and playing here on
the Sunday for God's sake.

Speaker 3 (34:04):
Wow, true good hospitality, Oh.

Speaker 11 (34:09):
Great, great, I love it. I mean I just sit
back now the eighty year old man thing and just
how these how it was those days, and just every
West Coasters the minds were all working, went to black ball,
stayed the ability of the black ball lovely as people.
Here's a couple of pubs those days there. Everyone had
a job, everyone worked lower up, every car factory is full.

(34:29):
You know, people were working freezing works. Everyone was going,
you know, good days, good days.

Speaker 3 (34:35):
Your body's.

Speaker 11 (34:37):
About the fairies that this guy got on the fairies,
you know, you know, you imagine six or eight clinking
guy in a cabin with eight bunks in it. Get
off at seven o'clock in the morning, have some breakfast
at the christ Church, go down to the park at
you know, twelve o'clock, three o'clock, kickoff, seven o'clock. Back

(34:58):
on the ferry, come back to Wellington.

Speaker 3 (34:59):
Would you party the whole way back?

Speaker 11 (35:02):
Oh, depends on the dead. I saw a lot of
guys would been now when I was younger. No, But
as I got up there to say, as an older,
when you're twenty one and twenty two, twenty three, you
have a good old party coming back and all the
good laughs and buddy, all that sort of thing. Good
comer good guys then each other's all those sort of
guys love those guys all passed on there. Yeah, and
it's just memory, but just talking about the theories and

(35:24):
and things like that. But but it's four four guys,
good friends of mine who worked on the Quahini and
you know when that went down, you know, No, that's
just good memories, Marcus, just good memories. Had a good laugh.

Speaker 3 (35:36):
Great to hear from bridge. It's a nice story. I
like that. Oh get in touch. Oh wait one hundred
eighty Italian nine nine two to text. M oh wait, Yeah,
I joined this. I'm learning a lot. It's always good,

(36:01):
Daniel Marcus. Good evening.

Speaker 19 (36:03):
Yeah, and got to mandain my dogs in the door.
But you're totally about.

Speaker 7 (36:08):
The fear in it.

Speaker 19 (36:10):
My parents were actually on the singing of their mourner.
If you remember her, I don't remember that.

Speaker 3 (36:17):
I don't remember that ship.

Speaker 19 (36:20):
Well she was the end of the island period that
rounded off Reeths Rock coming into willing to Harbor. Okay,
she grounded, and uh, a lot of people lost their
lives on that thing.

Speaker 3 (36:38):
Really google what will I google?

Speaker 19 (36:45):
The arable one in the island period that ground on
Reth's Rock okay.

Speaker 3 (36:53):
I'll check it out, Daniel. I appreciate it, thank you. Yeah,
whatever his wires crossed, does he? I don't think he's
a fairy with Aramore. I think any story the way
he knew. But oh yeah, okay, yeah, that's why I
got the wrong stare on that one. As I said

(37:15):
in my earlier text, we were so well served with
public transfer the fifty sixty seventies. You had a mystery
about it. Your last call of Bruce described as illand
as it was also from Bruce, mind you, it was
hard to get a car, couldn't spend the money overseas.
You know, it was all regulated. That was the situation,
so you couldn't get around like you once could. But

(37:38):
I think people enjoy the whimsy of public transport, especially
with a sports trip. It's a great thing to do. Marcus.
Trucking companies won't use a direct ferry between Wellington and
christ it's just due to the cost and time. The
ferry was a twelve hour trip, and we can run
a unit from Palmerston to Chroist each in twelve hours
and the drivers stay within legal hours. The cost of

(37:59):
getting the trucks on thre I don't know what that means,
it asked, but Marcus done. Sandal School went to Wellington
on the ferry. That's from jen Jan. We have many
peatures on our property, Golden quinn and black be After
eating many fresh we're now enjoying those we bottled Humble up.

(38:19):
Mark's a great overnight trip from Lyttleton to Port Nicholson
in August nineteen seventy or four birth buck huge seas
sliding one into the bank to the other. Days when
you're in an integrated road rail see the air passages
and freight transport. Cheers Bruce, Evening, and welcome Hitdle twelve
looking forty input. We are talking about the forty ninth

(38:41):
anniversary of theirs. This day that the ferries stopped running
between Littleton and Wellington, or Wellington and Lyttleton. That's what
we are talking about tonight, if you want to talk
about this, so this is your show for you people.
Eight hundred and eighty ten eighty and nine two nine
two to text Allen good Evening.

Speaker 10 (38:59):
Mike, I'm listening to see regarding that the lam Mowana,
whether the guy earlier had made mistake or not, I imagined, so.

Speaker 3 (39:12):
Okay, that song is I enjoy I think it was,
Yeah about the way, you know, I think that's what
that was my understanding. But come through I you don't
want to talk people, but yeah, I I want to
because I mean it's probably it's probably using his most
famous ship. Oh well, m it's not Judge.

Speaker 19 (39:34):
Hey.

Speaker 3 (39:34):
So we talk about the faery, the Entron ferry between
Littleton and Wellington and your memories of it. Was it
did actually was there actually a dining room you went to?
And was there a breakfast room you went to for?
It was a dining room for dinner and breakfast? Was curious.
So also just some other questions just while I'm thinking
about it that maybe someone could explain to me what

(39:55):
would have that ship that lost steering off the west
of Rakiura Studa? What would it have done? We just
bounced around there and the sea. Would it have just
had some limited steering? What do they use the to
stare it? You might have some understanding of that, So
get in touch about that also tonight. The other thing,

(40:20):
and well done to the guy Beamish for winning that
race which was unbelievable. George, what was it for? Geordie?
Not a first name I've known Geordie, but yes, Jordie
did fantastically. Could someone explain to me what is not

(40:41):
what's the point of it? But could someone explain to
me the subtleties of the steeple chase, like what is
the point from a runner's point of view of the water?
Would it be different if it was dryer? As there's
some subtlety about the water that I understand. I've always

(41:03):
wondered about that. What's the point They can understand how
there jumps. It's a bit like a long hurd or race,
but it's what's with the water. They might not never
there might even be a reason. So that's what I'm

(41:24):
into discussing that. Also, you want to talk about that,
that's good. That's what we're about kind of tonight. Eight
hundred and eighty ten eighty And the entire on ferries
and the speed camera trailers which are already out and about.
They get you both ways, I reckon they probably get
you coming in sideways. How do you put them in

(41:45):
the roundabouts? But they've been putting out warning tickets to people,
which is kind just to see if their systems work.
I don't know if it's about to free our other people.
I think probably there. I don't think they're actually signed.
I think they're non I don't even know the right expression.
I don't think they're actual police people that sit in
the cars that book you. Yeah, but someone will know

(42:09):
more about that, and that person's not me. Eleven past nine.
If you want to come through, oh, eight hundred and
eighty ten eighty and nine nine two to text anything
else you want to talk about, that's good, that's fine.
But with it till twelve o'clock time breaking news. I'll
bring that to you tonight. That's a promise. Um just

(42:37):
looking now, Actually, no, no, not that I can see.
Just Melby talking about who made it to a wedding. Oh, well,
least you do. Twelve past nine, Lloyd, it's Marcus. Good evening.

Speaker 8 (42:59):
Oh hi, Marcus.

Speaker 4 (43:00):
Hey.

Speaker 20 (43:02):
What was the name of the theory that went from
Littleton to Welkin? Was it the Spirit of Adventure or something?
It was Rock McKenzie. Anyway, I don't remember that there
were private enterprise and the other theories. The government owned ones.
They undercut them, which was very unfair. Anyway, Talking about
your steeple chase, that was a race from church to church.

Speaker 15 (43:24):
The steeples.

Speaker 20 (43:25):
That was how that originated. I don't know about the
water if anyway, That's all I've got to tell you.

Speaker 3 (43:30):
I don't know that that's interesting in itself. But you
don't know why they persevere with the water, do you?
What's the point is it? Is there some special technique
or I don't know what it is?

Speaker 20 (43:40):
No, I really don't know. No's I suppose if you're
going from church to church, that must have crossed the
stream or a Greek I really know. I only supposing.

Speaker 3 (43:50):
Really, I'll google up and see what I Can'll find
out about Lloyd, thank you. I often wondered about that,
because it must be hard for tracks to have that
big ditchate. I don't think he's going to do with
choice at churches. Maybe it has the steeple chase and knobscrace,

(44:12):
which derives its name from the steeple chase and horse riding,
the grind of hunting with dogs. So there we go,
no where what the ditch is for? What the point
of that is? Well, there probably is. I just can't

(44:34):
work out how they persevered with it or why they
have good that we won twenty eight barriers and seven
water jumps since the water jump is never on the
track over steeplechase course is never a perfect for it, admits. Instead,
the water jump is placed inside the turn, shortening the lap,

(44:55):
or outside the turn, lengthening the nap. Braiden, Marcus, good evening.

Speaker 2 (45:02):
Hi, how's it going good?

Speaker 3 (45:03):
Braiden?

Speaker 2 (45:04):
Hey, I just said you're talking about steple chase. I
just rang up, so I must they last? But I
had a guess. I thought maybe the water part of
it is to do with motes.

Speaker 10 (45:16):
Yes, is it right?

Speaker 18 (45:19):
No?

Speaker 3 (45:20):
I don't know. But what would it as an athlete?
What as an athlete would the water make any difference?
Could I presume your shoes, I presume your shoes are wet.
Does it slow you down?

Speaker 2 (45:30):
It would effect, I guess, depending on the temperature to
figure muscles.

Speaker 3 (45:35):
So yeah, So I wonder why they still put water
in it, because it must be a fair thing around
to fill the thing up with water.

Speaker 7 (45:42):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (45:43):
I think they hit it k and brighten and crust
eat and I think they just well since I was born,
when I was a young and they just said it
fill with rain water?

Speaker 11 (45:53):
Is it?

Speaker 3 (45:57):
Your Brandon figure even Marcus welcome?

Speaker 2 (46:00):
Yeah, good evening, Marcus Evan.

Speaker 7 (46:04):
That ship.

Speaker 2 (46:06):
Was it a single poopellership.

Speaker 3 (46:10):
It's a good question. Now I'll just to look at
the name of what the ship was again, Tug Tim
of his ship. It's called It's got a good name,
so I can look that up. Are most ships most
ships have more than one anger, one one prop? Would they.

Speaker 21 (46:33):
Well, I think that most of them are single props,
But I was thinking if it had a bout rust,
they might have been after slightly.

Speaker 11 (46:40):
Maneuver it like that.

Speaker 3 (46:42):
It's called the Golden Mind, But I get.

Speaker 21 (46:48):
I get the feeling of coming closer, but closer to
throw the anchors.

Speaker 3 (46:52):
Oh, okay, they'd go into a bay. Would they be
waiting to be picked up there?

Speaker 14 (46:57):
Yeah, well something like that.

Speaker 21 (46:58):
If they've got no other options.

Speaker 3 (47:01):
Off Mason's Bay. I've got it. I've got to deeps
up now there, old caller, Golden Mind, Panama. I've got
to agree to it. Tanker oil chemical tanker. Navigational status
underway using engine positioned vehicle speed, course, true heading, rate

(47:21):
of turn draft is it?

Speaker 22 (47:24):
So?

Speaker 3 (47:24):
How many props it's got. I've got an upgrade to
get that.

Speaker 21 (47:32):
Yeah, if it had two props, might be able to
get some slight steering off that, you know, one.

Speaker 11 (47:36):
Engine and a foot part from the other.

Speaker 7 (47:38):
RADI Rah good, I like the radio.

Speaker 3 (47:39):
Rah even thinks that. Craig Marcus welcome. Yeah good Craig.

Speaker 7 (47:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 23 (47:45):
I just got a great memory from ninety five when
I was on our school trip with mister.

Speaker 3 (47:49):
Stark, mister mister Stuck, mister Stuck.

Speaker 23 (47:54):
Great teacher. We were in it's part of interredio up
in the hut Rally and we went down to klist
shit on on the Maori. There was a few yes,
and it was fantastic. Willing left the wharf and Wellington
the toilet rollers and sign off the side of the

(48:15):
boat and all appearances down there clapping and cheering with stuff.
It was like you know as you see on TV
back in the day. It was fantastic.

Speaker 3 (48:24):
Craig. What was the purpose of your trip? What did
you do once you got to christ Jurg.

Speaker 23 (48:29):
We got down to cry Church and the little tunnel
has just been opened and probably a couple of months
before went through there with like a big shiny dun
going through it. And then we went to cry Church
railway station and out in the rail car out to
Gramy Out and we were there and we had to
down a strong and mine.

Speaker 12 (48:52):
Just after that.

Speaker 23 (48:52):
Two weeks later it grew up. Wow, and there's quite
a few guys got killed up. But we were down there.
We were down there two weeks prior, so, yeah, it was.
It was really out there trip. And mister Start was
the first to your head.

Speaker 3 (49:07):
How many days was the trip?

Speaker 23 (49:10):
It was seven days? Yeah, two days. We've tooken gold
mining sheep can wa'ts the stuff and gym mines and
we know it was a bloody good feature.

Speaker 3 (49:19):
That's fantastic.

Speaker 23 (49:21):
Yeah, yeah, it's I say that. The ship we went
down on was a Maori and it was rock and
roll all the way down here. It was like a
lot of kids or six, but we had a lot
of fun.

Speaker 3 (49:31):
Nice to hear from your graig. Great story. Eighteen past nine,
twenty one past nine. If you want to be in
touch people, how are you? What's happening? There's breaking usually
hear about it right down here. Yes, Oh, that's interesting.
Thanks for the perse that's said it very lot. And

(49:52):
Nathan about the history of the cross country. They built
bariou hurdles and ditches to ment the hedges and streams.
The water jump, specifically the ditch with water was designed
to a stream or brooke the horse driders have to
clear and cross country there's sloping water deepest at the barrier.
Shadow out encourages athletes to clear as much distance as possible. Yeah,

(50:19):
so I guess the further you jump, the less wheat
you get and probably the more comfortable as you're landing.
I just want to know what tactics, what it means
if you're running for wet with wet shoes and stuff.
Someone knows about that. Be in touch if you want

(50:39):
to talk. Het Tel twelve. My name is Marcus Welcome,
and we are talking about the internal fairies because it's
this day that they canceled the ferry between Littleton, which
is in Christ Churches you'll know, and Wellington didn't take
that long eight hours. But you've a roll, a bit
of a roll. He kind of a trip someset. So yes,

(51:04):
if you want to talk about that'd be great to
hear from you. Also the speed cameras and trailers. I
was worried to see Usain Bolt say he gets tired
out of breath walking up stairs. That was a worry.
You himself goes so soon. But your line's fear if

(51:24):
you've been trying to get through. Now is a good time.
I've really enjoyed all those teachers, all those schools that
took their kids for trips down the mine. Pretty old world, YEA,
liking that a lot. Let's be hearing from you though. Also,

(51:48):
come on, there's something else you want to mention too.
I'm up for it. Oh, eight hundred and eighty ten
eighty to text, you can email also, it's all good.

Speaker 2 (52:04):
Ah.

Speaker 3 (52:06):
I think the Warriors Awards might be on today. Rookie
of the Year lique Haalesima, Players Player RTEs YEP, People's
Choice Liquor Halaesima, Clubman of the Year, Dimetric varan Wanga,

(52:28):
Rookie of the Year. Yeah, I think I've read them
all now have I?

Speaker 10 (52:33):
There?

Speaker 3 (52:34):
We go, got some new buys for next year to
apparently that's all good. Then we could be eas a
bit of a risk. But if you don't want to
talk on air, that'd be nice to hear from you.
As I say, oh, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty
nine nine to detext the fairy. You have you have
some memories of the class trips. I'm liking all of it.
Let me know what you went. Where did you go,
Where'd you stay? If it was a school trip? This day?

(52:56):
In ninety three, the sitcom Frasier debut on NBC. Another
one of those spin offs, well it was a spinoff
from Cheers, but another one of those comedies. It was
a spin off from another comedy, like Mark from Orc.
I think Mark from Ork. Funny enough with a spin
off from Happy Day? Isn't that surprising? You wouldn't think that,

(53:20):
would you? Would you? Could you? Twenty six past nine
o'clock twenty seven past nine, Ken, Marcus, Good evening.

Speaker 24 (53:34):
Good evening, Marcus Kent.

Speaker 3 (53:36):
Ken.

Speaker 24 (53:37):
I used to work for the Union Central Company and
in the seventies and eighties with the theories. Wow, very
interesting people bringing up at the moment. The Mary was
slightly before I joined in about seventy three, and I
think to replace the Wahni she was sent away and converted.

Speaker 7 (54:02):
To a role on.

Speaker 23 (54:04):
Okay, and that with that and the Ring of Terra until.

Speaker 24 (54:11):
So the Maria finished and I can't remember exactly when,
but whether where it went through until seventy six? Was
that was that when she finished?

Speaker 10 (54:21):
Yeah?

Speaker 23 (54:23):
It was.

Speaker 24 (54:25):
Now it was a great ship that the ring a
tear in any case, which was the sister ship to
by Hen and from memory, I think they had seven
hundred births and I can't remember how many cars and
cargo trailers it carried. But the water siders used to
load on the trailers on with sea frasers on them.

(54:48):
And now this was before containerization. Yeah, and I'm pretty
certain that the trucks used to be used to tow
the trailers on and then they were pushed in the
position and lashed down and they would have been towed
off at Wellington Waterler and depending on where the ship

(55:08):
was at the time. But she did do a day
daylight sailing that was getting towards the end of her life.

Speaker 3 (55:15):
Okay, it wasn't okay, so there was a there was
a later on thing.

Speaker 24 (55:20):
It was it was towards the end. It maybe been
the last eighteen months for two years, and a few
of us used to ring bolt up to Wellington for
the weekend on daylight sailing.

Speaker 3 (55:33):
Yeah, what was your what was your role?

Speaker 18 (55:36):
Ken?

Speaker 24 (55:37):
I was working in the garret and workshop that serviced
the prime movers and the trailers and any any role
on cargo.

Speaker 3 (55:47):
Okay, So.

Speaker 24 (55:50):
At the moment where there's a crew of us from
not to anyone that's worked over the years. Have a
get together once a month. It's the first Wednesday of
the month, and we can only find us that are
actually alive that worked over there in that period.

Speaker 10 (56:09):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (56:10):
Wow, it was not that long ago? Is it just
forty nine years? I've going on for headlines, Kim, but
nice to talk to you here till twelve. You want
to be a part of it. Eight hundred and eighty
eight Talking about the fairies, Wilso talk about the speed
camera trailers and steeplechase and the water. How would it
affect your way you run your race. I suppose its

(56:32):
all about timing. You've got to get your time pacing
worked out there and get out of that water and
not slip. I guess it's becoming more a slippy kind
of a race. That's my take away. Get in touch,
Marry Marcus.

Speaker 7 (56:46):
Welcome, Hi Marcus. How are you good?

Speaker 3 (56:49):
Thanks?

Speaker 12 (56:50):
Murray good.

Speaker 7 (56:52):
I've been up on that ferry from christ Chips to
Wellington and in them days they used to swing the
cars on by crane.

Speaker 3 (57:03):
Yeah, that's what I thought would have happened.

Speaker 7 (57:05):
Yeah, they did there in the sixties. We went up
and there they had a new sixty fear lane. We
went around the North Island.

Speaker 3 (57:16):
You tell me more.

Speaker 7 (57:18):
Yeah, Well they swung around with Well I was only
a kid then. I was probably only had six or
seven years old. Uh, And they yeah, you've got a bird,
you've got a cabin. And they swung them on by
the old crane. It was quite a sight to see
the cars in the air.

Speaker 3 (57:35):
And then did they go on the deck or or
they put them They have to be on the dick,
would they.

Speaker 7 (57:40):
No, they went the whole I hang, okay, they had
an opening.

Speaker 3 (57:44):
So the old brother, the lids had come off, the
old covers had come off, and they put them right down.

Speaker 7 (57:51):
Well, I was only kid, so I was only sort
of tagging along. Yeah. My father, my father probably could.

Speaker 12 (57:56):
Tell you more.

Speaker 7 (57:57):
Yeah, but I can remember my brother threw out a
whole lot of lobby papers on the way over on
the and they had a ten bob note pocket. He
threw that out as well.

Speaker 8 (58:09):
He was very happy, very good.

Speaker 3 (58:14):
That was a lot of money and then a lot
of money, a lot of that. That'll be the lesson.

Speaker 7 (58:19):
Yeah, that's right.

Speaker 3 (58:20):
How the cargo. Good to hear from you, Mary, Thank you, Avon, Marcus, welcome.

Speaker 25 (58:25):
Good evening. If steven here from New Plymouth, My daughter
and a group of standard for pupils went with mister
Carnahan on the left on the eight o'clock railcar to Wellington,
went around to Parliament, went down on the Waheny and

(58:47):
visited different factories in christ Hutch the next day, and
came back on the Wahini that night, and the're back
on the rail car.

Speaker 3 (58:56):
Well, that's like three days all up.

Speaker 25 (59:01):
Well two here, Yes, they went one day and they
came back the next day in the afternoon. They arrived
back the next afternoon. Oh yes, yes, there are two
nights on the Wahene.

Speaker 3 (59:15):
Yeah, gosh, you didn't miss around, didn't you. And I
mean there'd been no factories to see these days? What
factories was no?

Speaker 25 (59:23):
Well, I mean the crystal I can remember one tip
one is Christmas the crystal factory.

Speaker 12 (59:30):
Yep.

Speaker 25 (59:31):
So I don't know what other factories now it's a
long time ago, but it was the year before the
Waheney went down, So.

Speaker 3 (59:37):
Sixty eight I guess probably, would it be right?

Speaker 25 (59:40):
Yeah, yes, well, what a wonderful trip they had.

Speaker 3 (59:44):
What school was it? Did you say an your Plymouth.

Speaker 25 (59:46):
Well Welburne school. Mister Carnahan. He was a wonderful teacher.

Speaker 3 (59:52):
Tell me the name of the school of Guinea, Yvonne
Wellborn w W E L B O U N. Is
it still there as a school?

Speaker 25 (01:00:02):
Yes, there is, Yes, Coronation Avenue.

Speaker 3 (01:00:07):
Oh yeah, I know, m yeah, yeah, I can see
it is now. I just that's not one of the
suburbs of New Plymouth I've known. But that's all right,
I'll get over that.

Speaker 25 (01:00:17):
It's where all the row I settlement days.

Speaker 3 (01:00:19):
Yes, yes, was understand. So where are they they? I'm

Thank you for that. Get in touch. You want to

Speaker 22 (01:00:53):
They?

Speaker 3 (01:00:54):
Mark's I we had to say that I work for
the United Steamship Company. In the sixties. I went on
the ling A Tearra for a sports trip to christ Church.
So that's what we are on about twenty five away
from ten o'clock, twenty two away from ten. Good even, Karen,
this is Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 26 (01:01:13):
Oh hi Marcus, how are you good?

Speaker 3 (01:01:15):
Thanks? Karen?

Speaker 18 (01:01:16):
Oh?

Speaker 26 (01:01:16):
Good good. I watched that prison tonight. If Patty has
issues or something was on TV three.

Speaker 3 (01:01:22):
Sure, yes, And it's about weight loss.

Speaker 26 (01:01:25):
And I have struggled with weight loss for most of
my well early adult life. I was actually skinny until
I went to a dietitian and came up with a
low fat, high carb diet in the early two thousands,
and that's when I gained all my weight. Ever since then,

(01:01:47):
I've been trying to lose it and and it's been
a battle, and I've lost one hundred kilos over the
years for it to all come back. So now I've
got a lot of my information from overseas from doctors,
and have gained a lot of information about unders standing diet,

(01:02:08):
about understanding how to lose weight and keep it off,
and about how to control diet and hunger. And I
just wanted to help people, will give people some help
with the experiences that I've had.

Speaker 3 (01:02:25):
Could you tell me, Yeah, you went to a dietitian. Yeah,
and they subscribed a what sort of a diet?

Speaker 8 (01:02:38):
No loaf.

Speaker 26 (01:02:39):
In those days when I was in my early twenties,
I'm now in my late fifties. In those days, we
were told to follow a low fat, high carbohydrate diet.
I thought that that was came from America, and so
after that I gained a lot of weight and that

(01:03:01):
that's when all my health problems started. So what I
wanted to do was to just to put some information
up there so that people have got some options.

Speaker 3 (01:03:12):
What was the show from my own pattern? What was
the show like?

Speaker 2 (01:03:18):
Ah?

Speaker 26 (01:03:19):
I was not very impressed with it because they're focusing
on drugs for losing weight, and the best way to
lose weight is hard work. I don't go for those
kind of things. But I had a lot of success
with losing weight and keeping it off. And what I

(01:03:40):
did was I did the five to two diet, which
was fasting, and that brings your It does bring your
weight down, it brings your liver fat down, and it
also lowers your insulin, which controls your appetite. So if
your insulin is high, then you have a high demand

(01:04:00):
for food, because the insulin also controls your weight store,
your fat stores, so you can't have high fat stores
and low insulin because it doesn't work that way with
skinny people. They eat a certain amount of food. When
they're full, they can't eat anymore because the insulin controls
the food intake. So if your incine is high, you're

(01:04:21):
going to have a high food intake and you're never
going to get full because the internet is trying to
bring your fat stores up to where the incilin wants it,
so it's effectively high insulin is trying to make you fat.
So by lowering the insulin, you lower your fat stores,
and because the insulin is low, your fat stores stay down.

(01:04:43):
You don't gain that weight back, so that cuts out
the yo yo dieting, and to maintain that weight, you
also have to have a good healthy diet, and I
use fruit.

Speaker 27 (01:04:55):
And veg as well.

Speaker 26 (01:04:57):
When I have dinner, I use vegetables because they're low
calorie and they help fill you up. But I also
use high fat, high animal fat, which is eating the
fat on the meat, adding animal fat to my cooking
like roasts and things like that. Animal fat to my
stir fries and that also helped to control your satiety

(01:05:21):
levels because animal fats do not affect your insulin. It's
only the carbohydrate and protein do effect. But fat doesn't
affect your insulin. Therefore, when you have fat, that satiety
is there and it stops you from being hungry, and
it stops you from snacking. Now, with the fasting, what

(01:05:42):
I found was that you have a hunger hormone by
the name of grilling, and when you fast often what
often happens. What I found is that hormone lowers itself
because you're not listening to it anymore because with fasting,
you're not paying attention to it. And so over a
period of time when you're fasting, that hormone drops down,

(01:06:06):
which stops you from being hungry, because that's that's the
hormone that regulates your hunger. When it's high, you're always hungry.
When it's low, you don't get hungry. So I can
quite eat because of the years of fast thing I've done.
I can go till two thirty three o'clock in the
afternoon and not feel hungry. But the reason why I
don't have breakfast is to give my body a chance

(01:06:29):
to use up any excess sugars to prevent the type
the excess sugars building up. So I miss breakfast and
I have a later lunch, like one thirty, and I
have a good lunch, so I have eggs with a
bit of carbohydrate bread or sour dough roll with egg

(01:06:50):
and tomato and a little bit of mayonnaise in there,
and then I have fruit afterwards. But I use I
have cups of tea in the afternoon, but I have
animal fat in the milk, so I have high fat milk,
and that animal that cream and the milk actually sustains
me in the afternoon, so I'm not snacking, so it

(01:07:12):
just takes the edge off the hunger. So I'm not
actually snacking. And by doing that, you're reducing your food intake.
Therefore you're reducing your stomach size and you don't get
so hungry, and you by and by fasting in the
morning and allows your body to overcome any high quarterisole
levels or any high blood sugars. The body uses those

(01:07:34):
ex their sugars, uses them all up, so you don't
get an accumulation of sugars, which is what causes the
type two diabetes in the first place.

Speaker 3 (01:07:43):
Karen, are you I missed when you came because you
came and strong at the beginning. Are you at of
weight now that you are happy with.

Speaker 26 (01:07:54):
I'm still trying to get it down because I also
have a lot of food trauma in my life.

Speaker 10 (01:08:01):
Sure.

Speaker 26 (01:08:01):
I had a period of starvation when I was young, young,
not from my parents.

Speaker 3 (01:08:08):
Are you are you? Are you Karen that doesn't do
daylight savings?

Speaker 10 (01:08:12):
Yes, i am.

Speaker 3 (01:08:13):
I'll be looking forward to that, won't you soon?

Speaker 10 (01:08:15):
Wow?

Speaker 19 (01:08:16):
Yes?

Speaker 26 (01:08:17):
Yes, yes, yes, I will be looking.

Yeah, no, I'll be.

Speaker 26 (01:08:39):
I'll be still doing my you know, I'll be still
doing my standard time.

Speaker 3 (01:08:44):
You said, yeah, what's going you're sounding younger?

Speaker 26 (01:08:47):
Yes, because because you know i've been you know, I
have lost a bit more ways. But I'm I'm I'm
sort of you know, just more excited about life and stuff.

Speaker 3 (01:08:58):
So I can hear it.

Speaker 26 (01:08:59):
It's about it's about feeling joyful and happy, and you
know when when everyone's in the same time zone, everybody's.

Speaker 3 (01:09:07):
I'm going to run. I'm going to run, Karen. But yeah,
well yeah, that nice to hear from you, So thank
you for that. Fourting to ten, A buses questioned a
liquor store at the Auckland suburb of Silverdale. Fire and
emergency were called about eight pm. The owner was not
at the site of Sylvidal Liquor Center, it said the
buzzard questioned into the building next door to the ben

(01:09:30):
Non store. Both stores had been infected. No staff for inside.
It's not a It's not a ram raad. I don't
think it is anyway. I'm pretty sure it's not a
ram raid twelve from ten Hello Janets, Marcus, welcome.

Speaker 17 (01:09:47):
I'm Marcus. Who was the lady before me?

Speaker 3 (01:09:51):
Karen Gee. She's good talk.

Speaker 28 (01:09:56):
It could hardly get a word and I couldn't.

Speaker 17 (01:10:02):
I just couldn't believe what I was hearing and all
j fact. You know, she got a lovely speaking voice,
but everything that was coming out of her was so
up the shoot and wrong that I could hardly believe it.

Speaker 3 (01:10:19):
What's worked for her?

Speaker 17 (01:10:21):
She's a heart attack victim waiting to happen really, so, yeah,
you don't have saturated fat and what she's promoting it
saturated fat and animal fat, fat in the milk. And
I could have taken notes to try and remember all

(01:10:43):
of it.

Speaker 3 (01:10:43):
But the thing about starting it always changes. What's better
that the food permit always gets inverted. While sugar was evil,
but that's not evil, then fat was evil, Now that's
not evil.

Speaker 18 (01:10:54):
Now.

Speaker 3 (01:10:55):
Yeah, look, I don't know.

Speaker 15 (01:10:57):
This is not.

Speaker 17 (01:10:59):
The way to go because being a nurse and having
studied all the sciences and studied.

Speaker 3 (01:11:10):
Jen can we not get into it. I do find
it a bit boring dieting because it's always people. When
people go on about about inchelin levels and five two
fasting and stuff like that, it becomes I think people
there's a lot of inform I don't think talkback is
good to digest a lot of information and short calls.
I think we all get overwhelmed.

Speaker 17 (01:11:30):
Yeah, well I'm the whelmed.

Speaker 3 (01:11:38):
But you know, she doesn't do you know, she doesn't
do she doesn't do daylight savings, she doesn't know, she
doesn't move your clock, won't touch your clock.

Speaker 17 (01:11:49):
Well we'll see if it's sailing by on a former.

Speaker 3 (01:11:54):
Yeah, good on you, Jen nicely said, nicely, pot but
next to there are and wow coming strong. I'm until
we go vy because like saying the word a zimpic,
we go vy.

Speaker 9 (01:12:07):
But I know that.

Speaker 3 (01:12:09):
I had sort of thing on Facebook about Petty Gower.
I can't see it again now, but I think that
the one of the women that was on his show
was the woman who was the TV three foreign correspondent.
And there's a photo of her and she looks like
she's lost a lot of way. It looks fantastic. So yeah,

(01:12:31):
I can't quite find the story now, but yeah, I
just read that before I came on here, so that
seems to be the story. And I mean you always looked, yeah,
I mean always look good, but that now she's lost
eleven kilos, she said, So there we go. That's the
situation there, and she's, yeah, I don't know. I think
it's a very personal thing for a reported we turned

(01:12:53):
themselves into the news story. But good honor, Yes, Lisa Raymond,
she's written an article about it. I'm not I'm just
I'm trying to speed read it now. She says, my
entire life, my weight has yo yoed, mirroring periods where

(01:13:16):
a brilliantly busy schedule was coming with the expensive sleep
exercise of how they eating if there's drugs were a
quick and easy way to lose weight, and I wanted
in to get his zpit. For weight loss, you have
to be a BMI of over thirty. So then she

(01:13:37):
goes on to talk about it. After my first job jab,
my hunger subsided instantly. I barely thought about food with
an hours found myself at the first I've ember completely
unaffused by the prospect of duck on an ice cream.
I guess I'll get one scoop, I said to the souper,
who clear to understand that I usually struggle to choose
a fewer than four flavors. Wow, but she's six. She's vomiting,

(01:13:59):
I think with it, so yeah, it didn't see it
seems though she had a bit of struggle with it.
Nausea and vomiting.

Speaker 10 (01:14:09):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (01:14:09):
Wow, So it's not a walk in the park. And
the other days my weight remained stagnant and the vomiting continued.
In the mornings, I was lethargic and grumpy, and knowing
what each wgovy pen cost, I started feeling pretty ripped off.

(01:14:30):
Worse till I couldn't improve my blood or my mood,
where a savory treat was perpetually bloated, in full and
ready burpy. Then suddenly the wonder drag started working. One
as my clothes were loosening, I was fitting energized, My
weight was dropping five k's with a fortnight. A Thursday
was renamed Jeb Day had a seven per appointment with

(01:14:51):
the wigovy pen. I stored the fridgicks, the mayonnaise. No
longer heart calling my name.

Speaker 10 (01:14:59):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (01:15:01):
So it's quite a good article. Actually, now what's a conclusion.
I'm just going to scroll through. It's quite a long article.
There we go, that was on the issues Petty Gower
has issues programmed today? Hasn't got the photo there? Who
sort of before an hour? Because you don't do that
these days, do you. So there we go. It's a situation,

(01:15:22):
that's the article, and we are talking about the internal
fery between Littleton and Wellington and long way. That continues
a topic. It's a journey I would love to have done.
I haven't done enough shipping around New Zealand, and I
wish I had the option to do it more often.

(01:15:43):
I've done some maritime journeys, but not all the ones
I would like to do. It's free hard to get
onto it now. You can't get on the freight ships
like you once could. But yeah, there's no real options
apart for the inter Islander and there's probably a fury
to the Chatham as you can get from the Chathams
then up to Norfolk Island. I think probably you can do.

(01:16:07):
That's about it, yes, so you might want to talk
about that also, and anything else you want to mention
tonight eight hundred and eighty ten eighty and nine two
nine two detext we are here til twelve. You've got
to be a part of the show. And also talking
about the speed camera at trailers, which are a thing.

(01:16:28):
They're winning those out tomorrow or actually already whiled them out.
They're just not having them live. They're just seeing your
warnings are not real tickets. What I'm amazed is your
class trips you've done on the ferry. When the people
went from christ Church to Wellington for the day on
the ship's school kids, I guess the kid's got a
good deal. It seems we have very good system. So

(01:16:50):
you might want to talk about that. Anything else you
want to talk about too. We've segued into weight loss.
Very confusing, going to talk about weight loss. Oh, animal fat,

(01:17:11):
that's the answer. It's the fifty to fifty combo of
fat and sugar that is evil. Think ice cream, donuts, cake,
sweet yogurts. We are not hardwired to resist this combination
because it's man made. I know this might sound a
bit old fashion, but exercising would also help Karen and
save her knees from wearing out. Hard to have sympathy

(01:17:33):
when there's a lack of discipline, harsh, but I'm harsh,
and also one point eight meters and seventy two kilograms.
She's right about animal fat though, So it's all very
confusing because we've been misprogrammed by all of it. That's
the trouble. So yep, the lady jan is spot on.

(01:17:53):
Karens are hard to take waiting to happen. All that
animal fat not good. Well, it might have saved her,
That's what I'm saying. Get in touch, Marcus till twelve,
eight hundred eighty eight and text if you want to talk. Oh,
I'm liking the fifty fit combo fett and sugar, Johnny Marcus,
welcome O, Hi, Hi Johnny.

Speaker 14 (01:18:17):
Is that you Marcus?

Speaker 10 (01:18:18):
Yes?

Speaker 4 (01:18:19):
Yes, oh yeah, very good. Yeah, No, I just agreeing
with is it Karen about it's sort of a carnival
type with vegetables and fruit. It worked for me, so yeah.
I did a little bit of research on it myself,
and I found out that it went real, real good

(01:18:39):
because I gained a lot of weight. I think I
went up at about one hundred and ten. I was
right over my cliff wall was high. My I became
type two diabetic. And they said, once you got it,
you can't get rid of it. And I thought, well,
I'm going to try a few things. I did a

(01:19:00):
bit of research, my partner and I and we looked
at it very seriously and we've applied it. We watched
you up like you mentioned it on on your radio station,
but we watched this podcast and I'm talking about the
Carnival diet, how the fat was actually good for you
and it helped. It was good cholesterol and expeing that

(01:19:25):
bread with used and that would give you well that's
the bad carb years. The carbs amazing game Waite obviously,
and it's not good for you lake Rice, but if
you put it in a freezer. It's supposed to make.
It starts resistance, so you leave it there for twenty
four hours, then you book it the next day. So

(01:19:48):
apparently well it works for me, and it brought my coletols.
I've got good colestials. They're off the roof now they're
right down. I've lost the weight. I'm about six. I
used to ye six one, but as the years rolled on,
I think it was a little bit disappeared. But I've
sayed my average rate was eighty five kilegrams and I

(01:20:10):
was up one hundred and ten buck. The foot already
dropped dead. He told me to get start exercising, applies
whatever they tried to put me on Stanton's and stuff
like that. The Stanton put me in bed and then
I felt like I was going to die. I next

People can't tell the difference, but I feel good. And
I'll tell you what. I'm fitter than what I was

the old regime, old school going on there. How they've

and they just talk about putting pools in there and
giving you more pools and more pools and more pools.
But you can heal your body, all right, every alten

Patrick Gowers program on were GOVI or a zem pic.
But yeah, you can't just get it for vanity. You've

the same weight as in my teenage years? Thank you
for that. How do people know what their weight was
in their teenage years?

Speaker 2 (01:22:49):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (01:22:49):
Eight hundred and eighty, ten eighty here till twelve. Be
a part of it, Margaret, This is Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 27 (01:22:59):
Oh hello, hello Marglas. I'm ringing about the entoil and
fear And as a ten year old had an amazing
trip from a little school called wend Inside in Southland
oh Wow, to Wellington and we went up. We caught

(01:23:22):
the train, the train and Gore were all day on
the train and through to christ Church and then over
to Lyttleton.

Speaker 26 (01:23:31):
Caught the ferry at.

Speaker 27 (01:23:35):
Eight o'clock at night and arrived at Wellington at seven
am the next morning. We were all in little cabins
and had teachers and some parents with us as well,
and another small school from central Otago joined us in Dunedin,

(01:23:56):
were at Palmerston, I can't remember which, and then we
had this amazing thirteen hour trip.

Speaker 17 (01:24:06):
We went.

Speaker 27 (01:24:07):
We got to Wellington, got off the boat. We went
to some fish and chip shop in Wellington for breakfast.
Then we went to the railway station to watch the
all the people coming off the train. We went to
watch the one of the fairies dock and to go
into a floating dock in Wellington Harbor. Then we went

(01:24:31):
to Parliament. Then we went to the car factory Todd
Motors at Pittoni and saw Chrysler Valiance being made. We
went to the nine I swimming pool fifty meter swimming pool.
Then we went to days Bay for lunch, had lunch
out there as a little caf and then we went

(01:24:56):
back into Wellington to the we went to the museum,
and we went to the War Memorial, then the museum
for the afternoon and we had a quick look around
the gardens up the cable car and then back into

(01:25:17):
Wellington for dinner for tea at the same place with
the same menu as we had for breakfast, and then.

Speaker 26 (01:25:26):
Went back to the ferry.

Speaker 3 (01:25:28):
Was it all on one day?

Speaker 27 (01:25:31):
Yes, it was, and there was about thirty five of
us from these two little small schools.

Speaker 3 (01:25:38):
Now, how did you get around Wellington by bus?

Speaker 27 (01:25:42):
There was a bus arranged for us to get to
once we got it, so it was there waiting for
us at the ferry.

Speaker 26 (01:25:49):
And we had a bus driver all day.

Speaker 15 (01:25:52):
Wow.

Speaker 27 (01:25:53):
That was pretty It's amazing.

Speaker 3 (01:25:56):
It's amazing how quick it all happened, to go from
wend Inside to Gore to christ Church to Littleton and
to do all that and then you must have only
been away for five days.

Speaker 27 (01:26:08):
We were away for thirteen hours in Wellington.

Speaker 9 (01:26:11):
Wow.

Speaker 27 (01:26:13):
And you know, like, I've caught up with somebody that
I was in the same class at primary school recently
and we talked about that trip and we both remembered
it quite because.

Speaker 3 (01:26:24):
You imagine what it'd be like for teachers to organize
that before facts, before cell phones and emails and stuff.
I mean, what an extraordinary thing to do.

Speaker 27 (01:26:33):
I think there was a plan for schools to be
able to do it.

Speaker 3 (01:26:38):
There probably was. There probably was the Education department probably
had a template and had things that all sorts of
schools would come up there and do it. Now I'm
thinking about it.

Speaker 27 (01:26:47):
Yeah, and that's what they did. And it was sort
of part of the outdoor outdoor education program.

Speaker 3 (01:26:58):
And I presume that school closed went.

Speaker 27 (01:27:01):
Insides closed, ye many years ago now, but it's just
it's still locked in my memory of the trips to Wellington.

Speaker 3 (01:27:15):
Well did people cope? What did they do on the train?
It's a long train trip, isn't it. That's too long
train trips?

Speaker 28 (01:27:20):
Yes, we all we all.

Speaker 27 (01:27:25):
Had hired pillows to be able to sleep, to be
able to and we had books to read, and there
were things that teachers. Teacher, well our teacher, he gave
us things to look out in certain places. We weren't
allowed to get off the train at the train stops Lake.

(01:27:46):
The train stopped in Amaru for refreshments and and things,
but we weren't really meant to get off the train
I think they had stuff brought onto the train for us.

Speaker 3 (01:27:57):
It's wise especially was there two class school?

Speaker 2 (01:28:05):
Was it?

Speaker 7 (01:28:06):
Yes?

Speaker 27 (01:28:07):
And the senior class? I was the ten year olds
and up went Wow and the same for the other
school the senior class went.

Speaker 3 (01:28:19):
And were they flat and calm crossings?

Speaker 27 (01:28:24):
As far as I remember they were, they were quite.
I don't remember anything. I don't remember the crossings. And
I as a as a sort of older teenager, I
did that trip two or three times, going to Wellington.
I went to a ranger guide calls in Wellington once

(01:28:47):
going up on the train and over on the theory.
And then when I had a presentation at Government House
from a Queen's Guide, I went over again.

Speaker 3 (01:28:59):
I spoke I've spoken to people in Bluff that from
the Sea Scouts because our kids are involved with that now.
But you know, when they used to go the jamborees,
it would be a train to it would be a
train to Littleton, yes, then the boat to Wellington, then
the train to Auckland. Then I think they had one

(01:29:19):
They only had one Jamburete fung Apparo, so that would
have been that would have been a long way to
go for a jamboree. It would be like three days.

Speaker 27 (01:29:28):
Yeah, but you knew you were going to be doing
that trip, and you took took books to read, and
I think there was games and all sorts of things.

Speaker 3 (01:29:37):
You you'd be prepared because of your guiding. Wouldn't you
know what was going on, you'd have everything worked out?

Speaker 27 (01:29:43):
Yeah, yeah, but it was so there was. But the yeah,
the trips, those trips were quite quite amazing. As the
older teenager remember being on the deck watching the moon
at night, and it was quite quite lovely.

Speaker 3 (01:29:58):
Lovely to hear from your margaret. Thank you so much
for those stories. What evening, Well, this is Marcus. Welcome.

Speaker 12 (01:30:05):
Well Marcus, are you doing good things? Nice? Nice chats.
I just wanted to share some recollections. I've recently gone
through some things and came across a commemorative middle of
my late dad who in nineteen sixty eight went out

(01:30:26):
and tried to rescue people on the way HENI And yeah,
there was a thing that happened four years before I
was born. But yes, quite an adventurous day.

Speaker 11 (01:30:39):
He had didn't go that well, how do you mean
it didn't go that well?

Speaker 12 (01:30:47):
Well, so, unbeknownst to my late mother at the time
he responded to a call out with a couple of
his friends and they went out on a forty foot
yacht and tried to head out through the passage to
get to the way HENI to resue people. And well,

(01:31:10):
I've got the journal of the Historic Medical Society of
Australians healing here and according to the records there they
pulled a few people on board. But interestingly, just in
the middle of Wellington Harbor. It's a lot shallower than
people think it is. And yeah, the boat that they

(01:31:31):
were on actually grounded or hit the bottom and broke apart,
and so everyone was in the sea and my father
ended up washed up on eastbom Beach wearing others but
nothing but his watch. As the family saw, he goes, oh.

Speaker 3 (01:31:47):
I didn't know that other boats and that was a yacht,
you said, is it right?

Speaker 12 (01:31:51):
Yeah, that's right. Yeah, there was a concrete and steel
constructed catch.

Speaker 3 (01:31:58):
So why did he get I mean because you said
he got on meddle and then you said that it
didn't go so well.

Speaker 12 (01:32:03):
But what was the medal for, Well, it was just
a recognition for there was a lot of them handed out.
There's something up to eighty of them. In fact, they've
got the record here. There's something in the region of
well probably twenty five point thirty just everyone's individual recognitions

(01:32:26):
of the day and everyone had to make their own
decisions on the day at the time and do what
they could. And the medals really were just recognized the
individual acts that people did.

Speaker 15 (01:32:38):
And it's the.

Speaker 12 (01:32:40):
It's a historical society of a Medal Society of Australia
and New Zealand. And they I guess it's a thing
of days gone by, but that's what they used to do.
Recognize exit bravery, you know, a thing well lost on
the Bodern generation, I imagine.

Speaker 3 (01:32:59):
Yeah, And who owned the yacht.

Speaker 12 (01:33:03):
Well, there's a guy called I hope there's people out
there who might know. But his name was Cully and
Alex Cully and the yacht was called Tahi Miranda, and
she was lost and all the crew, the four of
them on board, went down and and yes, they all

(01:33:24):
washed up on the Eastbourne side. Of course, like all
the many of the survivors, so four survived. Yes, all
of the guys who went out to rescue survived, but
they weren't too sure about the people they pulled on
board at the time the boat broke apart. So anyway,

(01:33:45):
just a little bit of history from my family.

Speaker 3 (01:33:48):
Yeah, wow, And how did your dad how did your
grandfather know? You say he's your grandfather, did you my father?
How did he know? How did you know the person
whose boat it was?

Speaker 14 (01:34:00):
Oh?

Speaker 12 (01:34:01):
They were sailing friends. They were in a sailing community
in Wellington, and yeah, Plick had the boat. And as
far as I'm aware, there was a quick phone call.
I guess the part I was going to mention too,
was that my dad was in some order of trouble
by the time we got back to my has newly
betrothed wife, my mum to find out because he didn't

(01:34:23):
actually mention that he was heading out to do a rescue,
and she only found out in the worst possible way
that he was missing and then lately later found So anyway, and.

Speaker 3 (01:34:34):
They risk people to do a bit of making up
for that. Before the boat sunk, they'd riscued people onto
the odd head.

Speaker 12 (01:34:40):
They yes, evidently, Yeah, that's my understanding of it.

Speaker 15 (01:34:44):
Yep.

Speaker 3 (01:34:45):
And those people didn't survive.

Speaker 12 (01:34:48):
Well, I don't know that a markers, but I just
know that there was. It was a bit of a
It was a bit of a shmozzle, as you might say.
The ways were quite big and actually, interestingly not many
people know that between Ward Island and Eastbourne it's only
three meters deep. So these massive ways roaring in and
they build up and they become these incredible huge and

(01:35:10):
I saying, so, yeah, it's quite something in that area.

Speaker 3 (01:35:14):
Nice to hear. Well, thank you for that story. Twenty
five past ten. Hi, Margaret's Marcus welcome.

Speaker 29 (01:35:22):
Yeah, O, gooday, Marcus. I can remember. There's a year
eight students they call them now. It was formed two
for us at Blaketown School in Greymouth and we went
to Wellington. We went on the railcar from from Greymouth
to christ Church. That was a long trip on the

(01:35:44):
train and we had little booklets. We had to answer
questions all the way.

Speaker 10 (01:35:48):
Along, you know.

Speaker 29 (01:35:49):
We were things about the tunnel and all sorts of
stuff like that. And then we got we went out
to the Little Twin Tunnel which had only I'm pretty
sure I'm right in saying it it only recently opened.
It was pretty new anyway, and they gave us a
tour of We saw the machines polishing the walls and
all that kind of stuff. Then We went through the

(01:36:10):
little tin had fish and tips if I remember rightly,
and got on a ferry of drink. It would have
been about seven o'clock at night and we stayed. We
slept on it and got into Wellington eight o'clock in
the morning. It was the most terrifying trip I can
can I won't get on the area now. I don't
think I've been on one since.

Speaker 15 (01:36:33):
It blue.

Speaker 29 (01:36:34):
It rained, It was rough and all I can still
see all the toilet doors banging and crashing open and
shutting as it was rocking and rolling, and everybody trying
to vomit into the toilets. We eventually got to Wellington
and then we went to the Salvation Army places. If
I remember right, it was called People's Palace.

Speaker 3 (01:36:55):
Yeah, someone else People's Palace as well. That stayed there,
so that must have been a yeah, it must must
have been.

Speaker 29 (01:37:02):
It was like a Salvation Army hostel type thing, you know. Anyway,
we left our bags and everything there.

Speaker 15 (01:37:09):
We stayed there.

Speaker 29 (01:37:10):
We'd been picked up by a bus off the Theory
and we had a bus driver and a woman showing,
you know, talking, guiding us all around Wellington and Marg, I'm.

Speaker 3 (01:37:22):
Just going to ask you to hold on. I'm just
going to go to the headlines. I'm going to come
back to you because I'm loving this. By the way,
the Littleton Road Tunnel open nineteen sixty four, so somebody
else had mentioned that, so it would have been brand
new when you went through there. So look, just told
them we'll come back to you with more about this.
Keep your texts coming through to if you want. Nine
to nine two. Loving these stories, and there were pretty

(01:37:43):
more of them, hopefully, So marg we're back. We're at
the People's Palace.

Speaker 29 (01:37:48):
Yes, yeah, yeah, and the bus driver and the lady
they stayed with us for the rest of our time there.
We went from there, I think we had breakfast at
the People's Palace and then we went to the zoo
and then we're going to the zoo and to I
think it was Todd Todd Motors they called it to.

Speaker 3 (01:38:10):
Someone else said this they went and he went to
Parliament and the and then to Day's Beach for lunch.

Speaker 7 (01:38:14):
Is that right?

Speaker 30 (01:38:15):
Yeah, well, we went to we did go to Day's
Beach for lunch or one of those beaches around there somewhere,
and we went to Todd Motors and then we stayed
that night.

Speaker 29 (01:38:26):
We had it must have been next to day. I
don't know why, but we did because it was such
a deal to get there in the first place, I guess.
And we stayed the night at People's Palace, and then
the next day we went to Parliament okay, and set
in Parliament and would even had a bit of a

(01:38:46):
tour around that place. And then I can't remember coming
back at nighttime on the faery. Maybe we came back
during the day.

Speaker 11 (01:38:56):
You might have.

Speaker 8 (01:38:58):
You might have.

Speaker 3 (01:38:58):
You might have blocked it out.

Speaker 19 (01:38:59):
It was so traumatic, well, it was, and I do remember,
I clearly remember.

Speaker 29 (01:39:05):
This was quite funny mister Hall standing at the gentry
room for me to get on the boat, and I
was refusing to get on the boat, waiting to go
on that boat again. And he had an ice cream
and he conned me to get bog with an ice cream.
I still remember that. And the trip home was fine.

Speaker 15 (01:39:24):
It was good as gold.

Speaker 29 (01:39:25):
Back again in the rail car and Victor Great House.
We felt like we've been half way around the world.

Speaker 3 (01:39:30):
What an amazing trip a lot, probably only five days,
but was it because how long was the railcar? Is
it four hours?

Speaker 29 (01:39:36):
Yes? Yep, would have been a good four house. Yep,
it's amazing.

Speaker 3 (01:39:42):
Really parents, did parents go along as you go?

Speaker 29 (01:39:46):
Well, I was trying to thing of that before. I
do remember mister Hall and mister O'Connell being with us.
They were our teachers, or mister Hall was the principal.
But I guess there must have been woman with us
as well. I would imagine, I just can't remember now,
but there would have been. There wouldn't have been that
many children. I think there'd only been about fifteen, maybe

(01:40:08):
twiggy at the most of us. It wasn't you know,
it wasn't. It was only standard six, so it wouldn't
have been that many of us. It's a great trip,
you know, you know it really was because most of
us had kind of never really been out of gram yet.

Speaker 20 (01:40:23):
You lift the coast, Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's a long
way to go.

Speaker 3 (01:40:27):
Did you say that you hadn't Did you say you
hadn't been on a boat? Did you have been on
a fairy since?

Speaker 23 (01:40:31):
No?

Speaker 29 (01:40:32):
No, no, no, no, no no no, I'm not going
only inter roll and fury, no way.

Speaker 3 (01:40:37):
So how do you so? Are you still on the coast?

Speaker 10 (01:40:40):
Bag?

Speaker 19 (01:40:41):
Yeah?

Speaker 26 (01:40:41):
Still there?

Speaker 29 (01:40:42):
Yeah, I've got child children in the North Island.

Speaker 2 (01:40:45):
I fly up.

Speaker 3 (01:40:48):
It's a good thing you've got because because it's quite
a short trip the I mean, it's normally quite benign
the entron it's not as it's not as epic as
going from Little Too, but I know fair enough.

Speaker 29 (01:40:59):
No, no, it's a lot long way for you. Though
I thought we were never going to get off the
damn thing.

Speaker 4 (01:41:03):
It's good to get off too.

Speaker 3 (01:41:06):
Yeah, it's a good story, Mark, thank you. We talked
about the class trips on the and the ferry. Seems
like that a fairly well organized trip there. Actually, last
time I was in Wellington, when was that last year
there was a whole class trip from the Chatham Islands,
And I said to the fri said good on you,
because I thought good on them, and the kids looked

(01:41:28):
wide eyed and look like an amazing trip. It wouldn't
been easy coming across the Chathams to go around Wellington. Marcus.
The train trip ferry crossing dan Wellington thing must have
been a regular for South Island schools. We had the
same trip from Tokemayarido School in Milton when we're informed two.
So we are talking about it's forty nine years today

(01:41:50):
since they stopped the ferry between Littleton and Wellington, and
Wellington didn't seem that so many people did it the
other way, apart from rugby league teams out of the
hut down to christ Church for a coaching lesson better
than going to Auckland. They said, So we are talking
about tonight. If you want to come in about that too,
it's good. Also the trailers that are riding out traffic tickets,

(01:42:17):
the new speed camera trailers have been unveiled. You might
have something to say about that also tonight. Get in
touch here till twelve if you want to talk anything else.
I'm not quite sure why this is why Trump's suing
the New York Times. I didn't quite understand why. It's

(01:42:39):
too full on? Isn't it the politics of the jeepest creepers.
A lot happened in the day. Where does it end?
Can't answer that. Twenty four away from eleven o'clock, ray,
it's Marcus, Welcome, Good evening, Yes.

Speaker 31 (01:42:58):
Good evening, Marcus. Way back in nineteen forty eight, I
was a sixteen year old apprentice working with the engineering
firm in Littleton, and we traveled backwards and forwards on
the old Ranguta repairing the boilers. The boilers were in

(01:43:21):
a bad way. There was also a gang from the
Union Company's engineering works in Wellington. We're doing the same
thing and we'd be traveling. We lived on board and
travel backwards and forwards. The boilers were that bad that

(01:43:43):
for a period there we had to anchor off Kai
Kora while we repaired a particular boilers soak to get
up enough steam to get back into Littleton.

Speaker 3 (01:43:56):
So you'd be repairing them as you went back and forward.

Speaker 31 (01:44:00):
Yes, they had four boilers, so there's always two working supplying.

Speaker 3 (01:44:08):
What would there repairing be it would be it would
be doing what working with plate steel?

Speaker 31 (01:44:14):
Well, they were water tube boilers, so the water got
boiled and then that made the steam which went into
the main drum. Well, these tubes were that worn that
we had to cut them out and replace them. And
we did that, and it was a sort of a

(01:44:34):
pretty slow sort of a job. And if one of
the other boilers packed up or lost the tube, where
we'd have to what we'd call plug it. Put a
plug in each end of the tube so the water
wouldn't escape back into the firebox where the fire was
and the boiler.

Speaker 3 (01:44:56):
So marine boilers are like a boiler on a steam train,
aren't they. There's just a cylinder with all sorts of
pipes going through them.

Speaker 31 (01:45:03):
Is that right, that's correct, Yes, yes, Particularly one was
a big drum at the top and then two drums
down either side, like a v upside down. So tubes
went from the bottom drums up into the big drum,
and then there was another drum up further, and the

(01:45:25):
steam went from that big drum up into the other
drum where it was what they call superheated steam, and
that gave the the engines enough steamed to be to
drive the engines, which were electric type dynamo engines.

Speaker 3 (01:45:50):
Yes, you understand.

Speaker 31 (01:45:51):
So when we did anger.

Speaker 25 (01:45:54):
Off and we.

Speaker 31 (01:45:56):
Many of the people thought that we were getting into
Littleton too early, so that's why we hadn't They never
knew that we didn't have enough steam to get into
Littleton from where.

Speaker 3 (01:46:07):
Wow, how do you place the pipes inside the board?
Have to pull them all out to you. Yes, you
can't get into it though.

Speaker 31 (01:46:14):
Can you into the boiler?

Speaker 10 (01:46:16):
Yeah?

Speaker 31 (01:46:17):
Oh, you can get into the boilers through what they
call manholes.

Speaker 3 (01:46:20):
Okay, so boilers, okay, so they can drop that down
into there and repair them all. Ok, I understand because
it was four and long. There wasn't there.

Speaker 31 (01:46:29):
Yeah, the end of the tube had poken to the
big drum at the top. And of course you can
use a gas plant to cut the tubes out and
then put them gradually back and then expand them into
the drum so they don't leak.

Speaker 3 (01:46:47):
So was it would it always run on? There was always?
It would always run on just two boilers and always
had two spear. Is that the way they worked?

Speaker 23 (01:46:54):
Yes?

Speaker 31 (01:46:55):
Yes, normally three and they keep one for a spear.

Speaker 3 (01:46:59):
Were you were you a good traveler at sea? Did
you handle it?

Speaker 7 (01:47:03):
Oh?

Speaker 31 (01:47:03):
Yes, yes, there was no trouble to try between Littleton
and Wellington.

Speaker 3 (01:47:09):
And how long did the job take?

Speaker 18 (01:47:11):
Oh?

Speaker 31 (01:47:13):
This one talk about over a year.

Speaker 3 (01:47:19):
So a year going back and forward fixing it.

Speaker 31 (01:47:22):
Yes, I wasn't there all the time. We used to
swap over with other tradesmen and other apprentices.

Speaker 3 (01:47:29):
So was the ship more or less at sea the
whole time? Was it doing a day sailing and a
night sailing?

Speaker 31 (01:47:33):
Yes, And we'd work and till about about seven at night.
We'd do about ten hours a day.

Speaker 3 (01:47:43):
Which speaks the question. Ray White had got so bad.

Speaker 31 (01:47:47):
Well, probably the water not suitable water during the war.
Perhaps they couldn't get the correct water.

Speaker 3 (01:47:55):
Okay, what is the correct water?

Speaker 31 (01:47:57):
Is it some sort of well supposed to be a
pretty pure water if you use water with a lot
of lime and it'll cake the boiler tubes up. Okay,
of course the heat can't get through the line to
help heat the rest of the water.

Speaker 2 (01:48:13):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:48:13):
So has it got to be distilled? Is it going
to be distilled water or something?

Speaker 31 (01:48:17):
Oh, not distilled but just plain water?

Speaker 10 (01:48:20):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:48:20):
Okay, good water, great story, Ray, thank you very much
for that. Seventeen Away from eleven min Namers, Marcus, welcome
headed twelve, looking forward to what you want to say.
Last week we took over two hundred year seven students
across four days from Ashburn Rittleton. From there we took
the Black Pearl Firy and spent the day exploring and
walking around Quail Island Marks imagined that was likely the

(01:48:50):
ship's sail from the Chathams to Norfolk on the only
ship that sails the Chathams are for freight and from
there no pessages are allowed. Be fun trip, though if
anyone wanted to set up a tourist trip on boats
more more than those who's currently Barbara get in touch.
People welcome he till twelve. You know the drill oha eight,

(01:49:11):
one hundred and eighty, ten eighty anything else, looking forward
to hearing from his sixteen from eleven. By the way,
today is the day that Matt Boland died sixteenth September
nineteen seventy seven, passenger in a Many twelve and five
DT driven by his partner. Both have been drinking across
the small Humtbridge. I think there's a memorial there also.

(01:49:35):
He has become a shrine. The car crash site has
become a shrine to his memory, where fans leave tributes
beside the tree. The shrine was featured on the BBC
series Pagan and Pilgrim. Is Britain's holiest places. Mark Boland's
rock shrine owned by the t Rex Action Group. But

(01:49:57):
if history, I hadn't really known about all that memorial,
I hadn't known about there you go. There's a situation there.

Speaker 19 (01:50:13):
Now.

Speaker 3 (01:50:13):
I think it's what his partner might have survived. Actually,
I think that's a situation. I've seen more recent articles
on her. Gloria Jones. She was a backing singer now
if you want to talk about these trips to Wellington
and trips on the inter islander when it was going
for Littleton. For those that don't know, obviously that occasion

(01:50:35):
listing from overseas. The faeries always used to go from
Lyttleton to from christ Church to Wellington, but then they
made it shorter to go from Picton to Wellington, which
is probably from an eight hour trip to a two
hour trip. That's a situation there. I don't think. I
don't know that. I'm pretty sure as the as the
picked in Wellington ferry was running, so the Littleton Wellington

(01:50:56):
I don't think there was a picked into Wellington ferry.
You might be able to fact check me on that one.
And the Littleton Tunnel opened and aunt in sixty five,
and the christ Church to Picton railway line opened in
nineteen forty five. So yeah, so the ferry continued for

(01:51:20):
a long time after the railway line went right up
to Picton. That's all the information I've got for you.
What's the best way to clean the inside of a
stainless steel kettle? Would you need to clean it? It's
terrible that my first response is would you need to
clean it? I would think probably it would be something

(01:51:43):
that's basic. Wouldn't it be some sort of carbonate that
would be left on the kettle? Would vinig be I
reckon vinegar? Is the answer? Fight me for that? I
reckon might be vinegar. I don't know what the experts
will say. There we go bomb the clean inside your

(01:52:07):
kettle for it halfway with a one to one mixture
of white vinegar and water, boil and then it sit
for twenty minutes. Cheapest creepers. I've become a stained guy
or a cleaning guy. It's saying that could say I've
become a stained guy? Does it now? Be in touch
if you want to talk Marcus till midnight eight hundred
and eighty ten eighty nine nine two detext. If there's

(01:52:29):
something different you want to talk about, good, good, anyway,
get in touch. Ten from eleven. This is Marcus being welcome.

Speaker 7 (01:52:41):
Hey man, I guess how's it hanging to the night?

Speaker 3 (01:52:43):
Good? Thank you.

Speaker 7 (01:52:44):
I've got a solution for your kid. All night. I've
got a solution for you.

Speaker 3 (01:52:48):
Yeah, it's not my kettle, it's a texts kettle. But
I'm hearing you right right.

Speaker 7 (01:52:52):
Check this scout. I we brisco to buy another kettle
because fine hand all that stain and so it's electric lubs.
You can do it with theaest one or whatever one
you got. No, I wake to Briscoes and got this
braid your kettle on specializes. Right. I went back around
to my mum's and my mom had a couple of
her mates here. They're painted bit of hard game or

(01:53:15):
whatever they're doing, and oh, went scotting. I've got this
kettle for half priced.

Speaker 18 (01:53:19):
Mum.

Speaker 7 (01:53:19):
Check it out. Anyway, once the old girls goes, you
use citric acid, and I thought what she could go
to the supermarket and you had finished picric acid, saying home,
put peace, bringing your kettle boiler. But when you finish it,
wash it out, cheg it out. So I've done it.

(01:53:41):
Oh my gosh, brand new. Everything was gone there a minute, unbelievable.
So I've been a few other people. I've been around
this is this that freen as it's worked. I've done
about four times, four different people, include myself.

Speaker 3 (01:54:00):
What's the morow? What's the morral of the story?

Speaker 7 (01:54:04):
Checking out? The older people don't know the secret? And
what you said?

Speaker 3 (01:54:08):
What did you say?

Speaker 10 (01:54:09):
You used?

Speaker 7 (01:54:10):
I think it's called pricid. Okay, you get a supermarket.
It's like sort of like a little baking soda container,
one of those. I'm pretty sure.

Speaker 3 (01:54:23):
It's not cream of tartar, is it?

Speaker 22 (01:54:26):
No?

Speaker 7 (01:54:26):
No, I'm sure it is.

Speaker 3 (01:54:30):
Okay, that's probably right. I just haven't seen it at
the because you can help other people use it, because
there's nothing else you use it for, is there?

Speaker 6 (01:54:41):
I don't know.

Speaker 7 (01:54:42):
I've got all excited and brought three jars of it
sitting in the pantry.

Speaker 3 (01:54:45):
I only used But what what else would you use
citro guessid for?

Speaker 7 (01:54:51):
I know, it's just a pretty little container, in my eyes,
not that pretty.

Speaker 3 (01:54:55):
Yeah, I'm curious to know what it'll be used for.

Speaker 7 (01:54:58):
Yeah, no, no, but that's ideal for your gets any way.

Speaker 3 (01:55:03):
All right, did you take your other kid? Did you
take the other kettle deck? You didn't need?

Speaker 7 (01:55:09):
No, I've got it sitting in the bottom of the
pantry and a box still that was probably a year ago,
probably every year ago. Now, yeah, no, I thought, oh,
I'll just pull it out when the other one gets
stained up or because I reckon when it gets that
stain and I reckon, you can start tasting it in
your cup to teas or coffees or whatever.

Speaker 8 (01:55:27):
You might be.

Speaker 7 (01:55:28):
Right.

Speaker 3 (01:55:29):
Yeah, I've done. I've done baking, and I've used citric
acid to give the breed a sour taste. It's where
I've used it, right, Yeah.

Speaker 7 (01:55:37):
Yeah, I'm not much of a bake, but I know
one thing. You've got to rinse it out heat when
you finish it, print out. You kill about three or
four times.

Speaker 3 (01:55:46):
Let's say there'd be a since you'll ben, Thank you?
Ask your mother, if and doubt? Ask your mother, if
and doubt? I ask your mother, Val.

Speaker 22 (01:55:57):
Yes, good morning, good evening, evening. Val, it's baking. So
do you push in the stainless steel I reaching my
stainless steel fire pans bring it to the boil, and
I've had that about thirty years. I still put baking
soda in it.

Speaker 3 (01:56:18):
I guess is whatever works?

Speaker 10 (01:56:20):
Say yeah, okay, thank you?

Speaker 3 (01:56:25):
Some say citric Guess it's same. Say cream of tartar.
I don't know what that word tatar is. What's that
about cream of tatar? Do it where that derives from?
Might have a wiki pedie page. I'll see what it

(01:56:45):
says about cream of tatar? Ah? Did I see someone
said you have it in coffee, I don't think, so
I'll protest by carbonate. What's it called cream of Tata.
That's what I'm interested in exploring tonight. Potessium by tart trait,

(01:57:06):
same thing. I don't know why that became a thing.
I don't know why it's got that name. Anyway, it's
not important for now. I was going to head towards
the news. We'll be back after it with more and
do come through eight hundred eighty nine nine to text

(01:57:34):
prob it's going well for you if you want to
be in touch and Tim Beverage long after twelve tonight, yep.
It's called tartic short for tartaric esid obviously, and cream
means because it's the best. They'll be right, Hurdle twelve.
Welcome eight hundred and eighty today Jerryot's Marcus.

Speaker 7 (01:57:55):
Good evening, Yes, good evening, Marcus.

Speaker 13 (01:57:59):
Yes. I can remember my father taking me on a
chip on the Tamaenie out of Victim So always had
a start with this that ship. I think it was
a triple expansion steam engine. Anyway, you go down through
the sound, through the sounds, past the Perano's whaling station

(01:58:21):
into the tour out through the story channel and there
she blows the white traces were out there chasing the whales.
And they tell me he was ancient, but it was
all right, had a start at list undred all the time.

Speaker 3 (01:58:40):
Yeah, what year we're talking, I'll be back.

Speaker 13 (01:58:44):
About forty even Okay, Yeah that Beranos. They used to
have a mothership in the in Pirano's wire station called
the tour Tier, and the tour Tier often took took
the job of carrying passages across the willing when they

(01:59:09):
when the tammin he was out of order. Yeah, ok.

Speaker 7 (01:59:15):
Was it?

Speaker 3 (01:59:16):
Was he much of a port and picked in in
those days or not much there?

Speaker 13 (01:59:20):
No nothing much now which is a cherry beach on
one side and the wharf on the other. Okay, and
maybe island in the middle. Okay, go past maybe island yep.

Speaker 3 (01:59:34):
Makes sense. Appreciate you coming through, Jerry. Make it's Marcus welcome.

Speaker 14 (01:59:39):
He's still my friend. Tammany. Yeah, that was pickted in
Wellington then that it was a hell of a ship
that had concrete put it in the bottom of it
to keep it up right. But in nineteen fifty it
would be I think we did a crossing across the
family and oh man know you rolled right over. It

(02:00:03):
would go over one side. If you're in the lands,
you can see the fisher in the sea and you
look at and so the seagulls going past.

Speaker 4 (02:00:09):
On the other side.

Speaker 3 (02:00:13):
To the heather list.

Speaker 14 (02:00:17):
Yeah, well, I think the concrete was in when I
remember as anyway, my father was a nick Wiless operator,
so I hit a lot of trips on boats and
the air my line. I was the one that replaced it.
Oh yeah, and that was on the picking rude going
the other way. I used to go to May Holidays

(02:00:39):
during the war up on the old Waii m Hum
Christmas Uh May Holidays and that was quite something because
we leave Littleton down here in the evening after coming
down from North Canterbury on the train, go on board

(02:01:00):
be it Mary concert party on the end of the
wolf singing. Now is the air. As we went at.

Speaker 7 (02:01:05):
The mole, we.

Speaker 14 (02:01:09):
Ten I had shout out right all lights out, everybody below,
no smoking on deck. Then we'd go out and I'd
still be singing as you just chugged out of a
Littleton there. And then once all the lights were out,
we'd go out through the heads of Littleton and you
couldn't even see a light where christ is just there

(02:01:31):
were mines each side of the entrance, and the same
in Wellington, and every time we went to Wellington we
took it took a different course on the way up there.
During the war, I was a bit worried about submarines
being around. So that was the old Waiheni, and then
I think the Nama was the next one. And in

(02:01:53):
nineteen fifty we went up on a there was a
cooks and steward strike, I think, and so the only
could run it in the daylight. And I remember doing
a daylight trip up there in about ninety fifty fifty
one were a hewling suddenly at the tail and my
bell had just about to appear underwater and my mate

(02:02:15):
that was with me, he was sick as could be.
We got out in front of the bridge, out of
the wind and duel I. I enjoyed the trip anyway,
So it's doesn't never worries.

Speaker 32 (02:02:25):
We after the.

Speaker 14 (02:02:29):
Ina mar I think the me and came rang as
Era that joined the fleet, and that kept going right
up until we got the new Waheni, of course, which
made its fate on bear It's reef. And yeah, those
are the days My father had been a wild operator
of the Union Seamship Company.

Speaker 3 (02:02:48):
What were you traveling for?

Speaker 12 (02:02:49):
Met?

Speaker 14 (02:02:51):
I just go to mcgrannie was in Wellington, so that
got me up there in my holidays. Couldn't you couldn't
go at Christmas because it was harvesting time, and then
August holidays it was leiling time.

Speaker 2 (02:03:01):
So that was that.

Speaker 3 (02:03:03):
Where where where was your farm? Where where were you living?
North Canterbury after understand?

Speaker 14 (02:03:10):
Yep, yeah, that's I've just left here actually only in
the last a few months.

Speaker 3 (02:03:16):
Oh you'll be sad about that, I am, but never mind.

Speaker 14 (02:03:20):
You could have moved on.

Speaker 3 (02:03:21):
Yeah have you gone? Let me guess where you've gone.
You've gone to Kyapoy, have you no, Emily? Oh yeah,
nice place.

Speaker 14 (02:03:29):
Yep, yep, just down the road and what I love
the what Crop nineteen fifty nine trip was quite something
because I was an assistant scoutmaster and the local boys
all wanted to go to the jamburey in Auckland. So
that was the train into christ Church under the Ferry,

(02:03:52):
up to Ferry, up to Wellington, being on the train
and all day up to Auckland and we got to
the Auckland in Pacific jemburey and that was about fortnight
I think. And then we came home.

Speaker 3 (02:04:07):
Where with the where with the jamboree?

Speaker 14 (02:04:09):
Mech on the slopes of One Tree Hill.

Speaker 3 (02:04:14):
Oh yeah, I can mentioned they'd be a good place
for jamboree.

Speaker 14 (02:04:17):
Yeah, yeah, that was. It was a magics for it.
But we've got to see lots of things. We've got
side trips over and I important to see the naval
base and quite a few things around Auckland while we
were there. It's a lot o great days, the old
fairy days. They should come back, because as you've heard tonight,
there were so many school trips went to Wellington. They

(02:04:39):
got to the Parliament, they got to the zoo. They
had in other words, they had a geography, social studies.

Speaker 7 (02:04:46):
Listen and look, I don't think.

Speaker 3 (02:04:48):
Me, I don't think. I don't think the class trips
these days are nearly as exciting. It's all about lame
what they do now.

Speaker 14 (02:04:54):
Yeah, exactly exactly, No, I love it. I still love
to see you. My failure had been he'd be not
a wireless operator because he went to see for a while.
So he did the Wellington Sydney San Francisco run and
he ended up sitting out ninety thirty sent out. The
SOS was the tower he went down, and that was

(02:05:17):
about five hundred dollars west east of Range where it
went down. Yeah, but they all got off.

Speaker 3 (02:05:26):
Okay, how'd they get how'd they get off?

Speaker 14 (02:05:30):
There was a ship not far away and it pulled
up alongside the tower. He took quite a long time
to go down because the propeller shaft broke in front
of the one in front of a bearing, and of
course the engine raced and got out of balance and
just carved a whole the outside, so the engine room flooded.

(02:05:50):
She went down by the standard.

Speaker 4 (02:05:51):
Eventually everybody got off.

Speaker 14 (02:05:55):
Everybody got off.

Speaker 3 (02:05:56):
Have you just moved off a farm now? Meck to
go to Embley? Is that what you've hit to do?
Have you been off a farm where you did?

Speaker 14 (02:06:02):
That's right? I had the family farm dead, came home
thirty five off.

Speaker 7 (02:06:06):
So he left the sea.

Speaker 14 (02:06:07):
After the day he went down, he did a run
on the modern life for quite a while. Does that
replaces how?

Speaker 17 (02:06:17):
Yeah?

Speaker 14 (02:06:17):
The union steamship companies would have been paid. In my life,
I loved it. Yeah, So I spoiled, I spoilt, rotten
because a lot of my father's shipmates were still on
the local ferries here, so if I go on board,
i'd be up on the bridge with a think. And
then when Whitlock and a few others had around, being

(02:06:38):
wireless operators, so I'd be in the Wallas cabin and
then he had no Well Mcwilliamson was an engineer. He'd
be down and helped me down the engine room. So
there was a real adventure every time I went up
to move in there. As I can tell you you
be on.

Speaker 3 (02:06:52):
The ferries, that'd you go the cook straight fery at all?

Speaker 21 (02:06:54):
Meg?

Speaker 14 (02:06:56):
Yeah, I mean over a couple of times. Doesn't excite
me at all.

Speaker 3 (02:07:01):
No, Okay, good on you make nice to hear from
his seven in past live and keep it going ahead
of twelve. Maybe it's the time for now is the
hour to come back? You don't hear it so much
these days?

Speaker 18 (02:07:11):
Do you?

Speaker 3 (02:07:13):
Fantastic song might be due a return anyway, get in
touch you want to be part of the show. But
to talk about diets today too. On the back of
Petty Gower's program about we Go V which is o

(02:07:35):
zimpic Marcus love your show, I need to inform me
that schools to have exciting trips at my school in
the Company Coasts. Year twelves just came back from a
one week trip to Tweenstown. The year eleven's are going
to New York for economics on a two point five
week trip. Tomorrow. I have got his apparent help to
drive the van with my own kids from Tawa College

(02:07:56):
on a five day bike trip around the top of
the South Island. So it does have a lot of
planning by the teachers. Good on you, Marcus. They showed
do they not show the Warrior ward do on tee?
I don't think they do show the awards on TV.
I don't know what about that, but the Warrior Awards
have been on RTS Lequahalaesima and forget the other award.

(02:08:21):
Oh maybe they when clock it's something he deserved it, Marcus,
that goes right about a fairy called the aramon One.
I traveled on it in nineteen eighty one with my parents.
It was a row row roll on, roll off train
ferry from Wellington depict In. Then we'd travel on a
train nicknamed the Grasshop at a christ jurge. But all
seems to be about if you want to clean your kettle.
You use a slice of lemon. For clean electric kettles,

(02:08:45):
to use a slice of lemon boiled jug, leave to cool,
boil again, tip out water full and reboil. No after
taste and nothing to buy. Don't forget to tip the
lemon out after the second boil. It's just the yesid
breaking down the calcium deposits. I would think twenty three
pastep if you want to talk, my name markets good evening.

(02:09:09):
Is that other stuff good? That's good too? What is
the other stuff? I don't know? Got tomorrow's show all
work out already? Oh, there are those speed cameras tomorrow
the trailers. They're trailers that are speed cameras. I don't
know how many there are there says they're going to

(02:09:29):
be nine more that tea how many have been rolled out?
This week? A new mobile camera speed camera has been
rolled out tagging high risk areas in Auckland before being
deployed across New Zealand. The cameras have fled onto a trailer,
joining a fleet of issue visa replaced traditional vans earlier

(02:09:50):
this year. The first trailer will begin operating in Auckland
from Wednesday, with nine more joining the fleet in coming months.
I guess there'll be ten altogether. There's thirty four mobile
cameras operating an issue. I don't know they've got to SUVs.
I've still been looking out for a van on the road.

(02:10:14):
Mobile trailers allowed to have our cameras out for longer
and sit up in places that might be difficult for
the SUVs to operate. They're working day and night, detecting
speeding wherever and whenever, wherever and whenever it occurs to
know that the SUVs they're white, like a Hyundai or something.

Speaker 13 (02:10:36):
There you go.

Speaker 3 (02:10:40):
They say it's about road safety, fair enough, but about
revenue also, maybe a pay for that seventy million dollars
aga of awknerds for concerts. Marcus. I just watched a
YouTube documentary on railways through the world. Did you know
that Gisbane Tonaype railway line goes straight through the runway
of Gisbane Airport. Well, funny you should mention that Shirley.

Speaker 7 (02:11:06):
Was there.

Speaker 3 (02:11:06):
The railway no longer goes there. That's the situation there.
I think there's probably three railways in the world. There's
one on Ireland where the railway goes through the airline
through the airport is one in Tasmania. Just so you know,
eleven thirty Jamie, it's Marcus. Good evening, Hey.

Speaker 5 (02:11:30):
Marcus, there you go.

Speaker 3 (02:11:31):
Good, thank you Jamie.

Speaker 5 (02:11:33):
Are those speed camera trailers you've got? Don't quote me
on that, but I'm pretty sure they're the same we've
gone in Australia and I'm pretty sure it's an Australian
company that's running them because one of my friends he
was driving a speed camera van. He wasn't a police officer,
but who's working for New hilland Police? And then he

(02:11:56):
they either got the choice of moving to the new
contract with the new company or getting redundancy pay. I'm
pretty sure, so he up the redundancy pay because he
didn't want to work for the Australian company or something
similar like that.

Speaker 12 (02:12:11):
Anyway.

Speaker 30 (02:12:12):
Yeah, so what what what?

Speaker 13 (02:12:16):
What?

Speaker 2 (02:12:16):
What?

Speaker 3 (02:12:17):
Why have they rolled them out? And what's the point?

Speaker 5 (02:12:22):
I think it's because they can just put them wherever
whoever they want and they just run on. So I
got done by one. They put it, They hed it
behind sixty k zone in between the sixty and an
eighty and then yeah you come around the corner and
at sixty and then bang it was right there. I

(02:12:42):
got them doing sixty eight and sixty.

Speaker 3 (02:12:45):
So they hide them and they get you going both ways,
don't they?

Speaker 8 (02:12:49):
Yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah they just yeah, did.

Speaker 3 (02:12:53):
You did your boss? Did your bosses tell you off?

Speaker 13 (02:12:57):
No?

Speaker 5 (02:12:58):
They just they you got to find and then they
just turned through it into your name and then they
seen brilliant.

Speaker 7 (02:13:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (02:13:04):
It was a controversial and one day two hundred trucks
got done.

Speaker 4 (02:13:09):
I think.

Speaker 3 (02:13:10):
How much you get paid for that going? How much
do you have to pay for eight k's over?

Speaker 5 (02:13:16):
I think it was like two or three hundred dollars
quite a lot at one point. Yeah, at one point
is just paid off weekly.

Speaker 3 (02:13:25):
How demerits you got to get there? It's a different
demerit system, is it.

Speaker 5 (02:13:29):
Yeah, you got you get twelve and then if you
lose tho you get extra two that you get on
a good behavior bond. And if you lose those two
you lose your license for six months instead of three.

Speaker 3 (02:13:41):
Okay, anything else from you, Jamie.

Speaker 5 (02:13:47):
I'm on the hay Panes at the moment, heading for CERF,
which was the first trip I've ever done over to Perth.

Speaker 3 (02:13:53):
Hang on, hang on, you on what.

Speaker 5 (02:13:56):
I'm on the hay Panes nearly at Mildura, and I've
loaded out of Sydney with truck fires heading to Curve.
Apparently the rails.

Speaker 3 (02:14:06):
Down Sydney with what trying? What have you picked up
from Sydney truck fires? Are you taking the truck all
the way to Perth?

Speaker 4 (02:14:18):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (02:14:18):
Yeah, yes, I'm going to beat doubles loaded with thirty
two pallets of truck tires going on Perth yea four
thousand kilometers.

Speaker 3 (02:14:28):
So that's new territory for you, isn't it.

Speaker 5 (02:14:31):
Yeah, I've never done it befose it's pretty interesting. And
then I'm going to get home by next Friday because
I'm flying for New Zealand.

Speaker 3 (02:14:38):
So where will you stay on the way when you go?
If you've got it all mapped out and you're just
doing as it goes.

Speaker 5 (02:14:44):
I kind of got it mapped out. Tonight they have
to get pretty much too little durr and then tomorrow
I should pretty much make it work. I have to
get into Perth five tusday night, get up, load and
reloadd Friday and then have a twenty four hour break
and then leaving for Melbourne out of Perth on Saturday.

(02:15:04):
So then load out of Melbourne on Tuesday to head
home to get to my flight for Friday.

Speaker 3 (02:15:11):
Cheaper is creepers? Where do you speak to? Does the
company put you up for your twenty four hours? And
and Perth? Are you stay in your truck?

Speaker 2 (02:15:20):
Now?

Speaker 5 (02:15:20):
I's saying the truck. I've got a big cab camera,
it's got a microwave, what we call an ice pack,
air conditioner, got everything in here, so they've got a
air fry, cook up food, got a freezer. So I've
got everything I need.

Speaker 3 (02:15:32):
And what's your what's your beck? What's your back load?
Coming from Perth?

Speaker 5 (02:15:37):
I'm not too sure. It's something out of main treate.

Speaker 3 (02:15:39):
Apparently you wonder where the rail? Do you wonder where
the rails down? Is it flooded?

Speaker 12 (02:15:45):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (02:15:45):
I googled it. I don't know. I googled it and
I reckons it was working, so I don't know. But yeah,
it makes you some expensive times. Four thousand kilometers the
minimum they'd be getting charged at about three dollars fifty
year kilometer, but maybe four dollars. So it makes you
some expensive times.

Speaker 3 (02:16:04):
It's really expensive. Do you get you get extra bonuses
for doing such a long gig?

Speaker 5 (02:16:11):
Now a kilometer?

Speaker 7 (02:16:13):
Right?

Speaker 5 (02:16:13):
So the only reason I did it was because it's
good money for I'm going to spending money when I'm
in New Zealand seeing my grandmother.

Speaker 3 (02:16:21):
And will you and will you? Will you? Where will
you park your truck? And Perth? Is that quite straightforward?

Speaker 5 (02:16:29):
Yeah, I'll just unloaded and then I've got some family
I haven't seen about eight that they're going to come
and pick me up in the afternoon, and then that'll
be that.

Speaker 3 (02:16:40):
So you stay in touch on first with it, Jamie.
That's a good trip, Lois. It's Marcus. Welcome, good evening.

Speaker 23 (02:16:47):
Like I said, are you here, we go?

Speaker 7 (02:16:52):
You go.

Speaker 28 (02:16:52):
I couldn't bring you yesterday because yesterday I shifted the house.

Speaker 3 (02:17:00):
Let's please, I'm pleased to hear that.

Speaker 28 (02:17:02):
I went from one each and I went, I'm in
a beach in a fleet. This one's got a bedroom.
The one I moved out and was a bid for
just one, you know.

Speaker 7 (02:17:14):
So that's all right.

Speaker 28 (02:17:15):
So coming here we got and and I paid the
peckers to peckers to shift me because my friend couldn't
do it because he had a fall and broken his
ribs and broke his he's rist so he's out of action.
So so we moved in here yesterday. Right, that's okay.

Speaker 3 (02:17:38):
Nice, it's a nice place, and you've got good neighbors
and it's all okay.

Speaker 28 (02:17:42):
Yeah, it's all good.

Speaker 7 (02:17:43):
It's all good.

Speaker 28 (02:17:45):
Up come nighttime started to get a bit cool, so
I thought I was doing.

Speaker 14 (02:17:52):
Well.

Speaker 7 (02:17:52):
I couldn't get the heat pump to go.

Speaker 3 (02:17:54):
Don't get mistakes.

Speaker 28 (02:17:55):
Wink it winked.

Speaker 7 (02:17:56):
I mean, I'm used to using heat pumps and they
eat the other it winked. But I couldn't get it off.
It was blown cold here.

Speaker 28 (02:18:06):
H I couldn't get it off, so I got I
got ready with it, so I turned it off, I thought,
by So I come in the bedroom. I thought, I'll
turn the radio and listening to rats. I come in here,
and I'm in the bedroom now. I come in here,
and because everything wasn't all unpacked, I couldn't find me

(02:18:30):
bloody radio.

Speaker 7 (02:18:33):
So I had no radio. I had a cold.

Speaker 28 (02:18:36):
I had a cold ear pumping up there.

Speaker 7 (02:18:39):
That was no good.

Speaker 28 (02:18:40):
I come in here, no radio nothing. That's why I
didn't ring here, because I was going to ring here,
but I was i'ld be the only one that was happy.

Speaker 7 (02:18:51):
On said they wouldn't be.

Speaker 3 (02:18:53):
What just did you watch the game, Lois. Yep, A
lot of people have used the word capitulation.

Speaker 7 (02:19:04):
Was bloody.

Speaker 28 (02:19:05):
Discussing was just absolutely disgusting. I told you he'd go
belly up the number. I didn't think he'd go belly
up so fast. He should have gone overseas when he
wanted to go overseas because they won't want him.

Speaker 3 (02:19:21):
Now, what's the problem. What's the problem, Lois?

Speaker 7 (02:19:27):
What's the problem.

Speaker 28 (02:19:31):
It wasn't only one problem.

Speaker 7 (02:19:34):
And his surnames Robinson. I blame him. I blame him.

Speaker 28 (02:19:41):
Nobody in the whole history of New Zealand rugby, which
started way.

Speaker 32 (02:19:47):
Back when nineteen oh nine or something, it's never ever
nobody else has either done it.

Speaker 28 (02:19:58):
He's not all blacked up.

Speaker 7 (02:19:59):
I reckon that. I written that.

Speaker 28 (02:20:01):
When we play the blade slow cup the way the
way he Australia's plain, they can you give us a
round free money too. If they play like they played
on Sturday night, they won't win.

Speaker 3 (02:20:16):
Would you keep the same fifteen lowess?

Speaker 6 (02:20:21):
Well?

Speaker 7 (02:20:21):
I don't.

Speaker 28 (02:20:23):
Yeah, I probably wouldn't because I don't blame them. I
don't blame the players. I don't blame the players. I'll
put all the blame on the coach completely, the whole lot.

Speaker 3 (02:20:40):
Is good with probably is good with Canterbury.

Speaker 32 (02:20:45):
The next on Canterbury is that that's not that, that's not.
That's a big difference to coaching Canterbury coaching the All Plats.
It's a big, big difference.

Speaker 28 (02:21:02):
I knew he wouldn't be no God, I told you
were day he started, he wouldn't be really good.

Speaker 3 (02:21:07):
Did did you see how many staff they've got?

Speaker 7 (02:21:12):

for all of this, but those ruined New Zealand rugby.

Speaker 7 (02:22:17):
It's bagged.

Speaker 28 (02:22:19):
It's completely bagged because every every season.

Speaker 7 (02:22:24):

Speaker 3 (02:22:27):

And I see that who's the coach?

Speaker 19 (02:23:22):
Who's the coach?

Speaker 7 (02:23:24):
He was a good coach too, all breack coach they
called Fobley in foster Ian Foster.

Speaker 28 (02:23:31):
Well, he was on the on Facebook today saying we
were usually breakdancing.

Speaker 7 (02:23:38):
Now Robinson, he.

Speaker 3 (02:23:41):
Would have said then that might be a fake news,
is it?

Speaker 7 (02:23:44):
Or did you say it would be? I'm just telling
you what I read.

Speaker 3 (02:23:47):
Fair enough, fair enough. I think he's been barely judged
for his breakdancing. I quite like that aspect of him.

Speaker 28 (02:23:55):
No, no, no, no, he's an idiot. He's represents the
coach of the all break.

Speaker 7 (02:24:02):
He's representing New Zealand.

Speaker 3 (02:24:05):
Yeah, and what and he.

Speaker 28 (02:24:07):
Gets down and does all that stupid nonsense break out
And he's an idiot, idiot.

He is?

Speaker 7 (02:24:24):
Ellie Is? I've got to have sky for sport.

Speaker 28 (02:24:30):
I'd get rid of half. I'd get rid of half
the sky if I could just have the sport.

Speaker 11 (02:24:35):
But you can't do that, are you?

Speaker 3 (02:24:38):
Are you watching the women play Lois? Is that part
of you or your bit old fashioned?

Speaker 18 (02:24:41):
For that?

Speaker 28 (02:24:42):
I'm starting to watch them. They played good, they played
the guys.

Speaker 3 (02:24:47):
Yea, they are South Africa. Were good for the first half.
They kept them level, a very good first half. But
they've come right. She's good. That young woman boy, she's good.

Speaker 14 (02:24:55):
Yeah, she isn't she?

Speaker 28 (02:24:56):

Tremendous, tremendous, Yeah, you know.

Speaker 21 (02:25:03):
I did.

Speaker 28 (02:25:03):
I've started. I haven't been watching the war months, but
I've started watching them and it's pretty good.

Speaker 3 (02:25:10):
Yeah, we've got the semis in the final. Hey Lois,
what will you do about your your heat pump? Will
you get someone to look at the remote? Will you
figure it out?

Speaker 13 (02:25:19):
No?

Speaker 28 (02:25:19):
No, no, it's fixed. It's fixed.

Speaker 3 (02:25:21):
Oh okay, I was worried about that.

Speaker 7 (02:25:23):
The new boss. We've got a new boss.

Speaker 28 (02:25:24):
And he comes because I had I moved into the
place and I didn't so I knew anything up.

Speaker 7 (02:25:30):
So he came this afternoon and I did all that.

Speaker 28 (02:25:33):
So he walked and I said, well, I've got a
couple of jobs for you. One six Bundy heat so
it's so it's blowing out heat.

Speaker 10 (02:25:42):
Not cold.

Speaker 3 (02:25:43):
Did you go into him about Scott Robertson.

Speaker 7 (02:25:47):
No, no, I no, I haven't talked to him about Rugby.

Speaker 3 (02:25:54):
Oh well, well you didn't. You told us for the
day I got the job. He was no good. You
told us for the moment he got the job. He
was no good.

Speaker 28 (02:26:06):
He wasn't any good before he got the job. He's
a big booby, that's what he is. If you don't
give me the job.

Speaker 7 (02:26:16):
Wasn't going to go over the sas well. He should
have gone.

Speaker 28 (02:26:21):
Because they certainly won't want him over the idea.

Speaker 7 (02:26:27):
We'll probably be stuck with him.

Speaker 3 (02:26:29):
Well, I think he's going to last long, is he?
He wouldn't want to last much longer like John Mitchell,
remember him, John Mitchell didn't last long, did he?

Speaker 7 (02:26:38):
Yeah?

Speaker 28 (02:26:38):
But John Mitchell wasn't easy. You know, you're right he didn't.
But John and Mitchell wasn't the idiot that this joker is.
This joker is an idiot?

Speaker 5 (02:26:52):
Is it?

Speaker 3 (02:26:53):
Good Old Black?

Speaker 13 (02:26:55):
Hey?

Speaker 28 (02:26:56):
But I don't remember him playing as an all break.

Speaker 3 (02:27:00):
I didn't play a lot, but he was.

Speaker 6 (02:27:01):
He was there.

Speaker 7 (02:27:03):
Yeah, he got because he.

Speaker 3 (02:27:07):
Have You got the internet. No, because you've got the internet,
you can get sky for fifty five dollars a month
sky Sport. Now that might be something to look into
in the future.

Speaker 7 (02:27:17):
Fifty five dollars a month yep for Sky Sport.

Speaker 12 (02:27:22):
Yep.

Speaker 28 (02:27:23):
Okay, so I haven't got a lot of my plans
for it.

Speaker 3 (02:27:27):
You'll be paying one hundred and ten I think just
for Sky Sports. No, for all of it. But but
if you've got the internet, you can get just Sky Sport.
It's a cheaper option. Oh, I see it's still live.
But you don't have you don't have the box. It's
just coming through the internet. Okay, it's we're thinking of,
it's we're thinking about. What are you saying?
