Welcome to the Muster on Hockinoy Radio today, proudly brought
to you by Peters Genetics. I'm Chris Wilson doing Day
three of three in for any Mirror. Welcome to a
new month. Hopefully people got things achieved over the weekend.
Track to work, mating, mowing grass for silent and supplement.
Let's hope that it all happened. A number of summer
sports kicked off over the weekend. We had bowls and
(00:38):
cricket around the province. On a fantastic day in the
higher ranks of sport, the Black Caps completed a sleep
of the English cricket team and the All Blacks successfully
kicked off the Grand Slam Tour with a screechy but
solid one over Ireland in Chicago. Looks like a spectacular
day out there again, So with a bit of luck,

Speaker 1 (03:12):
The Muster proudly brought to you by Peter's Genetics. Every
drip means quite a bit when it's from Peter's Genetics.
Speaker 3 (03:27):
With us on the show.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Right now, we've got South District Mayor Rob Scott Can
I Rob, how do you get nine?
Speaker 4 (03:34):
Chris?
Speaker 3 (03:34):
Good?
Speaker 4 (03:34):
Thank you you.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
I mentionine you've had a bit of a whirlwind, a
couple of weeks in the whirlwind beginning to your seeking
term as meyor how's that all going?
Speaker 4 (03:43):
Yeah, whirlwind's probably the key wordcase wind is Sittney a
wind for forty minutes?
Speaker 2 (03:49):
Can?
Speaker 4 (03:50):
Yeah, certainly wreak a bit of epic, but no, it's
going well. It's obviously been a tough time for a
lot of our people and there's going to be quite
a long pale to this. As been talking to a
few farmers over the last few days and so if
ye're hearing about the destruction and how long it's going
to take to recover it all. But I mean, the
best thing that we've had out of this is no
(04:11):
loss of life and no serious injuries, one one blessing
out of it all.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
Yes, and we're just with these cleanups carrying on. Just
as long as people have got that Safety's payer amount,
hopefully everyone will be fine.
Speaker 4 (04:26):
Yeah, there was I see a lot of the stores
of thought out of chainsaws, and we are starting to
get a few more people presenting to A and E
with chainsaw, and so yeah, people don't need to just
take care I guess around that. Yeah, I mean chainsaws don't.
They quite often win arguments, So yeah, we need to
do Yeah, we are alert and.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
Yeah, making sure you've got the safety equipment and I
guess having someone there to you to keep an eye
on things providing they're safe also.
Speaker 5 (04:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
Correct, But it looks to me to be mainly a
big good job for a lot of it too.
Speaker 4 (04:59):
Yeah, you're a lot of people I've been talking to
they've actually made the assessment and they've gone, hey, look
this is actually too big for me. I'm going to
get the big machinery in and do it that way
because there's a lot of tension in a lot of
those trees and stuff as well. So yeah, it's sort
of just being realistic I think, and letting the big
machinery come in and do it.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Yeah, And there were senses tied up and at all
that we're probably going to need ripped out and rebuilt,
and not to mention arrogators and all sorts of things
that need to be repaired. So certainly just adding to
the busy time on farm for everybody, isn't it.
Speaker 6 (05:29):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (05:29):
Yeah, Now, it is.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Is there anything particularly you've seen, you know, for people
to watch out for other than that, is there still
a few power wise down?
Speaker 4 (05:40):
The power is power I need is certainly getting on
top of that now was sort of down to the
last getting. I think we just had under a thousand now,
which is good. So there may still be power lines
down and yeah, again just as there are, just make
sure and they're at the point now where they wanted
people to let them know when they're finding things as well.
(06:02):
So yeah, whatever you do, don't go anywhere near them
because they are livening up the networks. And yeah, you
need to treat any of those power wise as life
because yet they are. We don't need any injuries or
desk coming out of this. And the tail end of it.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Yeah too, right, they also stay with emergency.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
It's been in play basically from the day after, I believe,
and we're currently still in that stage and that's I
guess talking to you off ye, And it's being reviewed
every day, but it's in place till more likely Friday.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
Is that great?
Speaker 4 (06:34):
Yeah, at the moment, it's in place until Friday. We've
been briefing every day and including over the weekend. And
we're starting to look at what recovery is going to
look like now. So that's the next stage of the emergency.
So we're getting prepared for that in some stage, and
it might even be before Friday we might move into
that recovery piece. And yeah, I think the recovery is
going to mean different things for different people. I think
(06:55):
from our rural sector, it's going to take quite some
time to get that recovery done on farms that have
been kind of obliterated with senses gone, and realigning paddocks
and getting everything all all back into the phrase that
we all love now, the new normal.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
New normal. Well, that'll be a nice thing when it
actually happens.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
Yeah, excuse me, just also thinking about the recovery and
what's happened during the emergency, with all the services that
were involved. I just not that I was affected at
all by any of it, but the way I've seen communities,
rarely electricians helping out farmers, the power people doing what
they did, the ambulances, the firem and the I think
(07:37):
everybody was an absolute credit to everybody in these districts.
How people have banded together and supported each other.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
I MA, it's been incredible and we've been going I've
been going on to a lot of these community for
the barbecues and get togethers that have been hosted through
the week, and you're just hearing stories all the time.
And at Musline on Friday night they invited that of
the local Sparkys there and all the crew, and they
gave them recognition because they were literally working round the clock.
(08:06):
I think I thought his vehicle that keeps track of
how long you've been running for it have been running
for eleven hours. It's how long it's been running NonStop.
So between all of the I mean, obviously Power need
have done a sterling job, but there's been a lot
behind the scenes as well. South Roads, Fork and Hogan down,
the Sparkys, the farmers themselves, families, the whole everyone's just
(08:28):
all rally together to make sure that that no one
gets left alone in this and it's just at that
southend spirit coming and through and through and it's just
been fantastic to hear. And people are so Yeah, people
are just so Everyone that I talk to they say, oh, well,
there's someone who's lost. For me, I'm not pretty stressed,
And no one's moaning, no one's worried. They're all just
(08:50):
doing much right to get through this. Also, it's so
great to their souvens are right now.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
And not to mention the communication from you guys at
the council, All of the councils involved have been they're
good with their their releases on information and and just
dos and dan'ts and what to beware of. So I
think the whole thing's been lead very well, right from
the top right down to the people on the ground.
Speaker 4 (09:11):
Yeah, the colms has been a bit of a challenge. Obviously,
we didn't have comms for a while there and getting
out to people that there's I mean, there's still people
without power there and we're lucky with South phones now
that you can kind of when the towers are up.
We've got colms in there. But that's that's one thing
that I think we need to look at going forwards
as to how it can improve getting out to as
many people as fast as possible when when those networks
(09:33):
are down. So that, yeah, on the whole it's been them. Yeah,
it's been a good a good challenge.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Too right, too right, And what a start you seecond
term anyway, So hey.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
Look that's better all I've got for this today. But
thank you very much for the work you've done and
making the time to be available for us today. Thank
you very much. That's Rob's got from the Southern District Council.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
The Muster proudly brought to you by Peter's Genetics. Every
drop means quite a lot when it's from Peter's Genetics.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
Nicks on the show, we've got John Pemberton all the
way from well Danny and Eden Dale means he's theory,
can I John Agan?
Speaker 6 (10:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (10:28):
Good man, you know on Chris a very good things.
What a cracker day out there to.
Speaker 7 (10:31):
Day makes a change, Krothy deck. We needed a bit
of sun on the decks. Yeah, yesterday afternoon had a
bit of a driver in the district and the fear
of sefty got the state of the farm's lots and
been a bit of a bit of a battle for
someone on ticking as we centlyseld it.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Yeah, and it's not just what the wind did, well,
it is ultimately what the wind's done, because it's been
every day that the lake of growth to and farms
are just looking a bit hungry, aren't they.
Speaker 3 (10:59):
Just we need some good weather.
Speaker 7 (11:02):
Just like a sun mate, just very yellow looking looking paddocks.
But lock even today we're just cutting cutting, Silas's cutting
bit of size at the moment on our Broaden block
and just the difference of color of paddocks from that
ten o'clock this morning competer ten o'clock yesterday morning.
Speaker 8 (11:22):
Unreal.
Speaker 7 (11:22):
So it's all sitting there really, boggie. We just need
to just need more than one day a damn sun
a week.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
Yeah, we did, and we do and at least we've
got today. We head Saturday and the forecast is looking
quite nice all week.
Speaker 7 (11:34):
Yeah, yeah, no fair happening. We just poured our first
for a concrete form the new shed and so yeah,
we've just been hanging out. We're probably probably started earlier
we anticipated, but from when we started, we're probably three
weeks behind now because of the of the way the
weather's gone. But now it's all coming together. Yeah, so no,
(11:55):
no either. This week I think people will be in
a far better state of mind completely.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
You'll be underway with making I'm assuming.
Speaker 7 (12:03):
Yeah, yeah we are.
Speaker 5 (12:05):
We.
Speaker 7 (12:07):
I think we're about five or six days at the
Bridon Farm and I been selling twenty fourth for the
newsies property that who's for sale. So we're just making
sure we've got a Dutch lined up for market and
Canterbury and such like, so that you know people got options.
Heaving you card a little bit earlier.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
Yes, yep, you just get that carving right for the window. Yes, yes,
oh that's really good.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
And so just to touch back with that storm there
a couple of weeks ago. You obviously you've had a
drive around the district. Not a lot for you, though,
you feel a lot. You've got off pretty lightly. I
think you may have been away, were you when it happened?
Speaker 7 (12:45):
Yeah, yeah, I was think sure. I'm a global focus
program for Noffield. The last stint was a five week,
five week compulsory program, which was just a juggle as
it was for the time of year I've even got
going on, but yeah, no, and i'd sort of gone
through Canada Scotland then I was in early, saw the
storm coming and just kept in touch with home and stuff.
(13:10):
Certainly had the work cut out for them, and you
know it didn't go all to plan for them, and our
generator blew up day two. We've had a generator for
twenty years, so that was a bit frustrating, but the
good old community pulled together and we got managed to
finish milking, get the cows off the platform, and then
my brother miniged to locate a generator out of Sinclow target.
(13:30):
My parents dragged it down and got us going that afternoon,
so we got pretty I think the biggest window we
had was nineteen or twenty years for milking. Cows were
just peaking, and to be honest, to think that Brydon
farms still peaking. Are the older cares that were carving
later certainly have noticed that we've come off your peak
on the younger cares. That means so yeah. But three damage, Yeah,
(13:53):
a few sheds losing the lost rooms. Actually a roof
come down on a pen of cars, but luckily the
the gate caught caught the roof and literally ended up
with just a mazzanine floor above them. No casualty, So
very lucky here and a few trees down. The only
real trees we hading at Briden were the ones that
snapped the one dawn wire at feeding the farm, and
(14:13):
it just took a while to get pound it, to
get to realize was how to action get done. But
all in all, I think we've got off light. Now
we're just parking up and waiting for diggers. We've cleared
what we had to, but I do see a real
health and safety risk with these trees. And I've just
contacted local contricy when when you're local with your digger
and the cutting saw on it, we'll just get and
(14:34):
we've done all we need to do. We've got other
stuff to get on with. And yeah, it is a
conversation we had in a coshy local all Support Trust
and Mark Patterson was you know that was the biggest
thing that came out of the conversation was, Yeah, there's
obviously the obvious around house fly for farms, but the
biggest was people whistling out there with chainsaws and these
(14:54):
trees and quite a curious situation with the stump still attached.
And yeah, just a real concern that people aren't just
focused on cleaning up for the sake of cleaning up.
What can they get away with to operate the farm
And appreciate that it's hard for people to sit back
and look, but you know, the farm can still operate
as long as you've got water and temporary features running around.
(15:17):
We can sill operate these farms, so it's probably the
one miss is and trying to sue of people as
just patients could save lives.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
And that is a message that it's been reiterated a
couple of times just about the whole safety the weight
of a tree route with soil or around it versus
cutting it off halfway up. You know where's it's pressure point?
How safe are you?
Speaker 9 (15:39):
So?
Speaker 3 (15:39):
And I think, yeah, you're down.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
To diggers and even still spotters with diggers as long
as you're at a safe distance.
Speaker 7 (15:46):
Absolutely, you know, it's there's not a huge amount of
people out there with their tickets for chainsaws my understanding,
a lot of older guys. Yeah, and you know, I
guess yes, see our worksfe stuff does have to come
into account about exposure for businesses. So yeah, hey, summing
(16:08):
your back's going to change people's attitudes too, right, absolutely, yeah,
so that's a big thing. I think the sun coming
out couldn't have been timed any better.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
And I still think the most critical part with the
destruction is the farms and businesses still have to function
as they were, whether this has happened or not. Like
you've still got plenty to do without the tree.
Speaker 3 (16:25):
Clean up.
Speaker 7 (16:27):
Yes, so can I wait, Yes, this is the question
that people need to ask themselves because prioritizing mate and
prioritize feeding, getting ecuppment feeder and getting water done, getting
the crops, and they are the crucial ones. They always
a crucial ones, a number of those before Christmas. And
you know is then there are options too, Like I
think as the dust settles, there might be more options
(16:49):
potentially for logs to come off farms to go to
locke to port or mills or whatever. So let's not
rush in and actually waite a product there as well
as the other side of too.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
What Yeah, be patient, m Now tell me though, just
because you had to come back from your travels, how
fast how were you and is there any change you
can catch any of that back up?
Speaker 7 (17:09):
Yeah, so I was about a third of the way.
I'm not quite halfway into it. And so the group
carried on from Italy to Spain and there they've just
landed in India, which is I was sort of that
was sort of the one I was really looking forward
to because I want to see how the dairy cooperative
works over there. It is globally one of the big
is the biggest in the world and a huge number
(17:31):
of small farms, so a massive chunk of moving parts
with from that. So I was quite fasting to see that.
But they finish up in Ossie and I'm planning on
joining them next week for the final week in Aussie.
So yeah, so not not done yet.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
Last you just have to organize another trip to India.
Speaker 7 (17:49):
Yeah, yeah, exactly. So you know, look, the reality of
this is the first world problem that I've got. No
one's hurt, cares me. Milk business is running, and yes
we we done to the road, but it is what
it is, and I'm just very grateful that I was
like enough, thing's carried on smoothishit at home, but probably
got home just some time. Staff were starting to get
(18:10):
some bags on their eyes. As soon as I got home,
I seen half the crew away for a couple of
days to recharge, and I know the family is quite
relieved to be able to hand the reins over. When
I walked to the door.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
Yeah perfect, well he went safe and happy and you're
doing your best for them, so well done, mate. Yep,
all right, mate, appreciate it. I'm a bit done here.
I'll thanks very much for your time and we'll keep
in touch. I'll catch up there another time, but and
you certainly will be back in touch.
Speaker 7 (18:37):
No worries.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
The horn, silence, the muster, proudly brought to you by
Peter's Genetics. Every drip means quite a bit when it's
from Peter's Genetics.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
With us Now on the show, we've got Ben Dooley,
Wyndham farmer and a bit of a what are you
social media?
Speaker 3 (19:01):
As well? Has it been?
Speaker 2 (19:02):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (19:02):
I wouldn't go as far as to say, Guru, well,
I spend a bit of time on there, but yeah.
Speaker 3 (19:08):
I mean, what's that thing in your world?
Speaker 2 (19:09):
On the farm obviously, I guess the one topic on
people's lips are still the storm.
Speaker 3 (19:14):
How'd you feel through that?
Speaker 8 (19:15):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (19:16):
We were. We were pretty good and chest looking around
at some of the damage. A lot of other people
have got around the place. A lot of branches down,
a few trees down, a couple of fences to fix,
but going a bit of clear lot off the roofs
and the yards. But yeather than that, we got off.
We got off pretty lot. But by croaky shoe was
a gust. We were hailing some pet lambs up in
(19:36):
the Hayshie and we're given up because we couldn't keep
the orang lit. We see the rain coming, but we
couldn't see the wind coming. And yeah, yeah it came
in a bit three seconds later. The year it was
full of timber and dust. Couldn't believe the dust that
came out from under the trees. But yeah, just the
way it was, it.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
Was kind of like a seating storm that I saw
it and gore it was, but it was just rain.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
Yeah, it was quite.
Speaker 6 (19:58):
A picked up picked up everything, didn't they It.
Speaker 3 (20:01):
Was amazing and in a bad way.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
But I look at you know, I've said this last
week too, but where we are it's not bad. But
I've sort of been venturing further out over the weekend,
but down towards the carg when just thinking of the
main rays. But there's a lot of debris down in places.
Speaker 6 (20:16):
Yeah, there's a lot of massive, big old trees down there,
certainly stood the test of time before. But then they
do keep even taller too.
Speaker 3 (20:22):
Don't they they do.
Speaker 6 (20:23):
Yeah, But yeah, there's a lot of damage to buildings
around as well. One of the main pho here, and
there's a couple of sheds have lost their roofs, and yeah,
there's a few houses around there are damaged and wall
sheds and everything else, so there's going to be a
few workpening up from it. Yeah, there's not much we
can do about the weather is there.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
And as the grandstand still standing at the race course,
I think the roof went, didn't it.
Speaker 6 (20:43):
Yeah, still standing, but the roof is or most of
the roof is gone. Yeah, so I'm not sure what
they'll do there.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
It's sad to see those old structures like that, doesn't it?
Speaker 6 (20:51):
That is it really is?
Speaker 3 (20:53):
What else you got ening on farm?
Speaker 6 (20:55):
Yeah, we're yeah, sort of struggling. But at the moment
we had a I don't mean we get tailing downe
pretty early on October and I wasn't real keen to go,
but we looked at the forecast for the week after
that and decided, no, we might take that opportunity.
Speaker 3 (21:07):
Yep.
Speaker 6 (21:07):
Just meant there was a few ams at six or
seven days getting tailed. But there's a week for you
out there that haven't made that up real well. But
most things are pretty good in that respect. But yeah,
if we hadn't got it done, I think we're just
a bit of doing it today, which is getting a
bit late, but yeah, covers are real tight. We put
a bit of your ear over a bit a third
of the farm or three or four three days ago,
(21:29):
which was yeah, just put the ball, decided she's time
to do it, So a little bit over a lot
method and yeah, looking forward to this next week of
heat or ten days of.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
Surely, yeah, surely you're going to get something out of
us to get things growing. And it seems to be
one of those hand to mouth seasons. It turns up
and then it's gone pretty quick too, And just the
nature of what the spring's being, isn't it.
Speaker 6 (21:52):
Yeah, absolutely, Now she's she's been a challenging one. I
don't think we'll have any quality controller she's come waning though.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
No, I don't think you will.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
Although of course the later things do grow, the higher
chance things turning to seed and places to isn't it.
Speaker 6 (22:06):
Yeah, And there is a risk. And that's what I
thought when I was putting your ear on. I'll do
fifty kgs over twice the yerea and that should be
a bit easier to keep on top of them doing
one hundred in a few areas and just losing it.
So but it's it's just one thing that's going to happen.
It's going to go to seed, and we've just got
to work with it. There's no point trying to stop
it because yeah, it's going to happen, So that's.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
Right, And as long as it whether stays good and
plays the game. Yeah, a little bit poorer quality, but
feed as better than nothing.
Speaker 6 (22:34):
Yeah, and we just don't know what's going to happen
over summer, so any feed we can have on hand,
Like I'm guessing there's not many sheet guys anywhere that
I've even thought about where they're locking up any bailage
or hate or anything new or silage. So we've got
options if it does go. But yeah, it's got a
it's got a few ways to go before we start
worrying about it gett out of control.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
Well, I'm just looking at Northern South and just the
other day I was up there on said they only
a couple of farms have actually started mowing to make
siloe too, which is a lot later than the norm
from what we would have been even five years ago.
Speaker 6 (23:05):
Yeah. Well I had a snipcheit gave me you're a
winder the other day that h three years ago we
made I think about three hundred and fifty dollars of
daileage on the twenty eighth or ninth of October. And yeah,
this year we haven't even got anything.
Speaker 3 (23:19):
Locked up here it yep, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 6 (23:23):
It said Seuthen has a habit of I won't say
that's saying that one Dan's wine Stein rabbage up. But
we always get a good burst somewhere, so if we
haven't had it early, we might just get it a
bit later.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
Yeah, I think we're reasibly reliable. It's just olds when
it comes.
Speaker 6 (23:38):
I'll just knock on some ward here spinning in a wardshead.
So yeah, recovery basis.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
There same Hey excuse me, And currently you're it a
working beat. You've got the school pete day tomorrow.

Yeah, yeah, wood and would I think it's the lower Materia.
Actually went to meeting del tudor El a few others
pet Day tomorrow, so you just got off. There's actually
a heap of people who turned up, so I've got
time to duck away and do this. But just getting
the show grounds tided up a little bit and get
set up for tomorrow and then makes tomorrow an a
bit easier. So yeah, it should be a good day.
I think the kids will still enjoy it. And yeah,

Speaker 3 (24:14):
So it is.
Speaker 6 (24:15):
I always love that.

Absolutely.
Speaker 6 (24:23):
And there's a lot a lot of kids these days
doing the other entries to the baking and the sand
sources and whatever else they do, which is quite cool
to see. So she's not just about the pets, but mainly.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
That's rarely area if it's not with kidding, he how's that?
Speaker 6 (24:37):

Speaker 1 (24:56):
The Muster, proudly brought to you by Peter's Genetics. Every
drop means quite a lot when it's from Peter's Genetics.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
On the show.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
Right there, we've got Senior Sergeant Gary dingon from the
goold Police. Get I Gary a bit of rolling stones.
She's so cold, certainly warm me up out there.
Speaker 3 (25:22):
To day.
Speaker 9 (25:23):
Yeah, a nice bit of music there, Chris, and thanks
for having me on today and thanks for the good
community as well.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
Yeah, and we've been hitting out there obviously a wee
bit of activity with the weather wise, is that.
Speaker 3 (25:35):
Created opportunity for any thiefts or anything like that.
Speaker 9 (25:39):
Well, we're just there's always opportunities out there. We've just
obviously there's a lot of tiny's still been known, people
without power. So what we're saying to people out there
is if you do see anything sort of especially in
the world right what one want of its surgeon and
if it's too good to be true, just make sure
we make it uncomfortable for these opportunists thieves.
Speaker 6 (25:55):
Yep, we've we've.
Speaker 9 (25:57):
Had a bit of unfortunate around copper thefts and piping.
Whilst we're getting some good results, we saw reach out
to the community for intelligence and crime stoppers to try
and catch them and hold them accountable.
Speaker 3 (26:08):
Here enough to get rid of them.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
Absolutely no place for them, Hey, roads, what are we
what's sitting on the roads these days?
Speaker 9 (26:17):
So we've been some really good good behavior recently, but
we're also still targeting and still getting ODRD drink driver
making them risks repeat conversations, you know, make good choices,
plan new evenings as opposed to having one consequences you know,
ends up being a sort of fatal or a serious
consequence life changing for life. Just a reminder to people
(26:38):
just to watch the speeds off the phones. And we've
just noticed a little bit of increase around young sorry
people driving thinking it's funny to do sustain lots of
traction and can tour on the roads within the area. Yep,
can rest assure it's not. We will see your vehicle
and put you before the courts. So I just don't
want anyone anyone getting seriously injured or killed because of
stupid driving.
Speaker 3 (26:59):
And it could be quite costly.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
I'm sure that there'll be plenty of appearance with the
other and arms of these silly young people were making
silly decisions.
Speaker 9 (27:07):
Costing and property and costly and serious injury in life
could be And we've just just I know the scores
is finished now, but there has been sort of a
few complaints around students hanging out the windows thinking it's
funny out the summ roof. But if you continue to
do so, inviting them along to see what the consequences
of a serious crash or so are not coming out
at the end of the night. They're thinking it's great
(27:29):
having been of fun and it's great that you've finished
the year, but just think about the consequences.
Speaker 3 (27:34):
Yeah, that's brutal saying that, but its effective.
Speaker 6 (27:37):
Yeah, absolutely, And.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
Then you'll well, I haven't seen any chick points over
the weekend, but there's still ongoing chick points and just
checking out for drivers.
Speaker 9 (27:48):
We'll do checkpoints were basically across the whole area, including
all the rural areas as well. You know, if this
functions on or whatever, we'll still be targeting and we'll
have people out in about mobile troll specifically for it.
So it's just obviously not going to stop. Just it's
gonna be all over the place at different times.
Speaker 3 (28:04):
Yes, they're coming into the feast of season.
Speaker 2 (28:05):
Make sure you've got a saber driver or yeah, a
safe way home or sleeping.
Speaker 9 (28:10):
Big absolutely, or find a friend or you know, just
plan plan planners with what we're saying, get home safe.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
Oh no, that's all very very wise.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
Anything else hit me out there that would you'd like
to make people aware of.
Speaker 9 (28:25):
I just think just you know, if there's lots of
suspicious activity around.
Speaker 6 (28:30):
Sort of in the rural properties.
Speaker 9 (28:32):
So what we're saying to people is again inside Gore
as well. If you see something and it's happening at
the time, one one one, and if it's something that
you don't want to put your name to but it's
for intelligence, then crime stoppers. We are actively building pictures
continuously and daily looking at how we can tie target
high risk offenders and take them off our streets.
Speaker 2 (28:51):
Well that's what that's what you're there for, and that's
what nobody else wants, isn't it.
Speaker 9 (28:55):
Absolutely just want to have a great Christmas, happy New
Year and when it comes, without which wait and enjoy yourself.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
Sick cool too, all right, Gary, Senior Sergeant from Gore,
Gary Ardenton, thank you for your time and we'll all
the best and we'll catch up with you another time.
Speaker 7 (29:12):
Yeah, thanks Christ, thanks for the whole community again.
Speaker 6 (29:14):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (29:29):
Up next on the show, we've got Clayton Peters from
Peter's Genetics. Clayton, fantastic sponsors of the show.
Speaker 3 (29:36):
How are you getting on?
Speaker 8 (29:37):
Oh good, thanks Christ, you know canath and playing on
a daylight today. She's it's good to see the sunny.
No one, We're busy tailing, and everyone's got a smile
new face because they're not.
Speaker 5 (29:47):
So they're shoving from the wind or the rain and stuff.
Speaker 8 (29:49):
So it's it's me.
Speaker 5 (29:51):
It's gonna be a good.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
Day tailing, going to go from wind Burn to Sunburn.
Speaker 8 (29:54):
Yeah, well I'd rather hear it that way, yea.
Speaker 3 (29:57):
And how far three tailor are you?
Speaker 8 (30:01):
Uh?
Speaker 5 (30:01):
Well, after the day we well, we're probably yeah, we're
going about four or four good days tail left and
then we'll get on the hobbits and late, so you're
probably about six days tail left, so we're about they're about.
Speaker 8 (30:11):
Five days six days behind, but like most people, but
we'll have a good week this week and catch up.
And obviously we've haven't had many trackless going, but we've
got the first seed in the ground on Saturday, so
so we're begg into that. And yeah, so we'll just
keep going, get this toiling on the road and get
track where it's done, and then yeah, do some drink
testing on some lambs, see when need to drench any lambs,
(30:33):
but hopefully we don't have to do so.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
Yeah, how are the lambs in the years for them?
How are they looking? And not that I need to
know percentages, but you're happy with your percentages you're seeing
so far.
Speaker 8 (30:44):
Oh listen, we we we with the way the weather was,
we new things are going to be back. We got
pretty hard with that that bed Saturday afternoon. But we're
we're gonna be up on last year. But we're actually
at the bar proper at the moment. It's actually looking
good over here. But we'll shower over here though, and
the lambs, the lambs are actually just getting big enough
to tar. We're got a few guys complaining that lefting
and including me, but we're definitely everything to get behind.
(31:05):
So but the you who's looking at good note with
the feet hung on, it's yeah, the last week it
has disappeared. But whether get a week week of starting,
we should be right again.
Speaker 3 (31:14):
Right, well, so you're not too bad off?
Speaker 8 (31:18):
No, No, we like we were hoping for a ripper
lemming because all the skinnings were well up and really good.
But obviously whether it takes that, so we're just got
to go with it and and grow the lambs out
the ones we've got.
Speaker 2 (31:29):
So yeah, it just you neva seems to me that
sometimes does it. It's just a leave whether you somewhere
that keeps up the same average.
Speaker 8 (31:36):
Well it does yet, like I think the biggest thing
is getting the lambs in for a start, and yeah,
uh yeah so and just yeah, but we're just yeah,
we can't do much about it. It's it's gonna be.
We're probably be about overall five percent over the all
the trophies better off for the last year, so I hope. So, yeah,
the hobbits of blend really well with what we the
ones out at home. We haven't even I think we've
(31:56):
gone around the five days and in the twenty days
and we haven't haven't touched the hobbit. So that's we're
pretty happy with that.
Speaker 2 (32:03):
Oh you would be. You would be in there. As
we said that the sun on the backs not only
is it good for people, it's good for your mind.
Speaker 5 (32:09):
Yeah, it is.
Speaker 8 (32:09):
Like even just yesterday, even though I was at CDF
the Sun's twenty first and Saturday, I was, you know,
look around the lambs and everything was happy, just sitting
in the sun and a bit of warmth. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
But other than that, we're just yeah, we've got ram
sitting around the corner in the second week of December
and the two s raands looking really good. So you're
(32:29):
looking forward to that too.
Speaker 2 (32:30):
And with the track to work, you've got some seeds
in the ground. I'm assuming you've been working on a
bit of grass.
Speaker 8 (32:36):
No, we're just concentrated on going to leap the tournament
for for the lambs. That's a priory and then we'll
get on to the is that where she haven't got
a lot of young grass going and she is will
most of the Leaffield ground to grass in the autumn.
So but yeah, we are, we are behind the track
at work. And yeah, so I'm lucky. I've got a
son home from like and he's gonna jump on the
Seacond tractor for a few weeks and hopefully we catch up.
Speaker 5 (32:58):
So yeah, and.
Speaker 2 (32:59):
Get that, well you get one and to get the
other end and all of a sudden, well it just
seems to happened.
Speaker 3 (33:04):
But yeah, how are.
Speaker 2 (33:06):
Those conditions or how have they been? Obviously you're slow
just the week just everything like everyone else is it.
Speaker 8 (33:11):
Yeah, like you get you get a couple of days
in and then you get raid again and then yeah
everything's too weak to touch and then and but we're
probably we'll catch up pretty quickly. Like it's just a
matter of getting getting the big drill gown for a
two or three days non stop.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
So yeah, very good, and I hit the fortune slash
misfortunate meeting a couple of the why Cooey Cooey cricketers
at the pub on Saturday night. They were well on
their way after. I believe both teams had a good one.
Obviously you couldn't make it. You're looking at don the
Whites again this season?
Speaker 8 (33:43):
Oh, I think so, yeah, I'm just yeah, we just
we've been quite busy at the moment we tired on
said they just been and then it was sty First
I to the other the stuff there and get sorted
out for that and then yeah, I depend on what
I'll probably make a start, not this, not this weekend,
proably the following, I'd say, but it sounds like them
might not leaed me. Both both teams are winning, so
good luck to them.
Speaker 2 (34:02):
Well, yeah, I think BEGINNDI mirrors he Fancy's putting the
Whites on for a wee cameo here in the tube
by the sounds of it.
Speaker 8 (34:08):
Yeah, I see he's going to play austright, I have
to come back.
Speaker 2 (34:12):
It's just oh yeah, because it's really you don't want to,
but yeah.
Speaker 3 (34:16):
You do, all right.
Speaker 8 (34:19):
I love it just to get away. It gets me
off farm today and and I've never been a big cricketer,
but it's just it's just good fun. You can go
out and meet different people and stuff. It's yeah, it's good.
Speaker 3 (34:28):
Oh yeah it is.
Speaker 2 (34:30):
It's a few beers, meet new people and catch up
with your old people that even know and just yeah
it feels the soul.
Speaker 3 (34:37):
Doesn't it.
Speaker 8 (34:38):
It's amazing here you run, you're running a few ram
clients and bits of pieces. You never know where you
see people. So no, it's just good fun.
Speaker 3 (34:44):
Perfect.
Speaker 2 (34:45):
Hey Clayton, we might just wrap that up there. Thank
you very much for time out of the tailing pen,
and I wish you're all the best for the good weather,
getting tailing track work, getting rams sold and a bit
of cricket.
Speaker 8 (34:58):
Yeah no, that's good, Thanks very much, Chris. And obviously
we got help with those wins too, and we know
it was pretty bad down and the fish real target
it we got, you know, we lost a few trees too,
but yeah, yeah we had to go out to those
guys and people haven't got still haven't got pear. Yeah,
it must be tough, but yeah, so good luck.

solid one over Ireland in Chicago. Looks like a spectacular
day out there again, So with a bit of luck,

The Muster proudly brought to you by Peter's Genetics. Every

Speaker 3 (03:27):
With us on the show.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Right now, we've got South District Mayor Rob Scott Can
I Rob, how do you get nine?
Speaker 4 (03:34):
Chris?
Speaker 3 (03:34):
Good?
Speaker 4 (03:34):
Thank you you.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
I mentionine you've had a bit of a whirlwind, a
couple of weeks in the whirlwind beginning to your seeking
term as meyor how's that all going?
Speaker 4 (03:43):
Yeah, whirlwind's probably the key wordcase wind is Sittney a
wind for forty minutes?
Speaker 2 (03:49):
Can?
Speaker 4 (03:50):
Yeah, certainly wreak a bit of epic, but no, it's
going well. It's obviously been a tough time for a
lot of our people and there's going to be quite
a long pale to this. As been talking to a
few farmers over the last few days and so if
ye're hearing about the destruction and how long it's going
to take to recover it all. But I mean, the
best thing that we've had out of this is no
(04:11):
loss of life and no serious injuries, one one blessing
out of it all.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
Yes, and we're just with these cleanups carrying on. Just
as long as people have got that Safety's payer amount,
hopefully everyone will be fine.
Speaker 4 (04:26):
Yeah, there was I see a lot of the stores
of thought out of chainsaws, and we are starting to
get a few more people presenting to A and E
with chainsaw, and so yeah, people don't need to just
take care I guess around that. Yeah, I mean chainsaws don't.
They quite often win arguments, So yeah, we need to
do Yeah, we are alert and.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
Yeah, making sure you've got the safety equipment and I
guess having someone there to you to keep an eye
on things providing they're safe also.
Speaker 5 (04:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
Correct, But it looks to me to be mainly a
big good job for a lot of it too.
Speaker 4 (04:59):
Yeah, you're a lot of people I've been talking to
they've actually made the assessment and they've gone, hey, look
this is actually too big for me. I'm going to
get the big machinery in and do it that way
because there's a lot of tension in a lot of
those trees and stuff as well. So yeah, it's sort
of just being realistic I think, and letting the big
machinery come in and do it.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Yeah, And there were senses tied up and at all
that we're probably going to need ripped out and rebuilt,
and not to mention arrogators and all sorts of things
that need to be repaired. So certainly just adding to
the busy time on farm for everybody, isn't it.
Speaker 6 (05:29):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (05:29):
Yeah, Now, it is.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Is there anything particularly you've seen, you know, for people
to watch out for other than that, is there still
a few power wise down?
Speaker 4 (05:40):
The power is power I need is certainly getting on
top of that now was sort of down to the
last getting. I think we just had under a thousand now,
which is good. So there may still be power lines
down and yeah, again just as there are, just make
sure and they're at the point now where they wanted
people to let them know when they're finding things as well.
(06:02):
So yeah, whatever you do, don't go anywhere near them
because they are livening up the networks. And yeah, you
need to treat any of those power wise as life
because yet they are. We don't need any injuries or
desk coming out of this. And the tail end of it.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Yeah too, right, they also stay with emergency.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
It's been in play basically from the day after, I believe,
and we're currently still in that stage and that's I
guess talking to you off ye, And it's being reviewed
every day, but it's in place till more likely Friday.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
Is that great?
Speaker 4 (06:34):
Yeah, at the moment, it's in place until Friday. We've
been briefing every day and including over the weekend. And
we're starting to look at what recovery is going to
look like now. So that's the next stage of the emergency.
So we're getting prepared for that in some stage, and
it might even be before Friday we might move into
that recovery piece. And yeah, I think the recovery is
going to mean different things for different people. I think
(06:55):
from our rural sector, it's going to take quite some
time to get that recovery done on farms that have
been kind of obliterated with senses gone, and realigning paddocks
and getting everything all all back into the phrase that
we all love now, the new normal.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
New normal. Well, that'll be a nice thing when it
actually happens.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
Yeah, excuse me, just also thinking about the recovery and
what's happened during the emergency, with all the services that
were involved. I just not that I was affected at
all by any of it, but the way I've seen communities,
rarely electricians helping out farmers, the power people doing what
they did, the ambulances, the firem and the I think
(07:37):
everybody was an absolute credit to everybody in these districts.
How people have banded together and supported each other.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
I MA, it's been incredible and we've been going I've
been going on to a lot of these community for
the barbecues and get togethers that have been hosted through
the week, and you're just hearing stories all the time.
And at Musline on Friday night they invited that of
the local Sparkys there and all the crew, and they
gave them recognition because they were literally working round the clock.
(08:06):
I think I thought his vehicle that keeps track of
how long you've been running for it have been running
for eleven hours. It's how long it's been running NonStop.
So between all of the I mean, obviously Power need
have done a sterling job, but there's been a lot
behind the scenes as well. South Roads, Fork and Hogan down,
the Sparkys, the farmers themselves, families, the whole everyone's just
(08:28):
all rally together to make sure that that no one
gets left alone in this and it's just at that
southend spirit coming and through and through and it's just
been fantastic to hear. And people are so Yeah, people
are just so Everyone that I talk to they say, oh, well,
there's someone who's lost. For me, I'm not pretty stressed,
And no one's moaning, no one's worried. They're all just
(08:50):
doing much right to get through this. Also, it's so
great to their souvens are right now.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
And not to mention the communication from you guys at
the council, All of the councils involved have been they're
good with their their releases on information and and just
dos and dan'ts and what to beware of. So I
think the whole thing's been lead very well, right from
the top right down to the people on the ground.
Speaker 4 (09:11):
Yeah, the colms has been a bit of a challenge. Obviously,
we didn't have comms for a while there and getting
out to people that there's I mean, there's still people
without power there and we're lucky with South phones now
that you can kind of when the towers are up.
We've got colms in there. But that's that's one thing
that I think we need to look at going forwards
as to how it can improve getting out to as
many people as fast as possible when when those networks
(09:33):
are down. So that, yeah, on the whole it's been them. Yeah,
it's been a good a good challenge.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Too right, too right, And what a start you seecond
term anyway, So hey.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
Look that's better all I've got for this today. But
thank you very much for the work you've done and
making the time to be available for us today. Thank
you very much. That's Rob's got from the Southern District Council.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
The Muster proudly brought to you by Peter's Genetics. Every
drop means quite a lot when it's from Peter's Genetics.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
Nicks on the show, we've got John Pemberton all the
way from well Danny and Eden Dale means he's theory,
can I John Agan?
Speaker 6 (10:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (10:28):
Good man, you know on Chris a very good things.
What a cracker day out there to.
Speaker 7 (10:31):
Day makes a change, Krothy deck. We needed a bit
of sun on the decks. Yeah, yesterday afternoon had a
bit of a driver in the district and the fear
of sefty got the state of the farm's lots and
been a bit of a bit of a battle for
someone on ticking as we centlyseld it.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Yeah, and it's not just what the wind did, well,
it is ultimately what the wind's done, because it's been
every day that the lake of growth to and farms
are just looking a bit hungry, aren't they.
Speaker 3 (10:59):
Just we need some good weather.
Speaker 7 (11:02):
Just like a sun mate, just very yellow looking looking paddocks.
But lock even today we're just cutting cutting, Silas's cutting
bit of size at the moment on our Broaden block
and just the difference of color of paddocks from that
ten o'clock this morning competer ten o'clock yesterday morning.
Speaker 8 (11:22):
Unreal.
Speaker 7 (11:22):
So it's all sitting there really, boggie. We just need
to just need more than one day a damn sun
a week.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
Yeah, we did, and we do and at least we've
got today. We head Saturday and the forecast is looking
quite nice all week.
Speaker 7 (11:34):
Yeah, yeah, no fair happening. We just poured our first
for a concrete form the new shed and so yeah,
we've just been hanging out. We're probably probably started earlier
we anticipated, but from when we started, we're probably three
weeks behind now because of the of the way the
weather's gone. But now it's all coming together. Yeah, so no,
(11:55):
no either. This week I think people will be in
a far better state of mind completely.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
You'll be underway with making I'm assuming.
Speaker 7 (12:03):
Yeah, yeah we are.
Speaker 5 (12:05):
We.
Speaker 7 (12:07):
I think we're about five or six days at the
Bridon Farm and I been selling twenty fourth for the
newsies property that who's for sale. So we're just making
sure we've got a Dutch lined up for market and
Canterbury and such like, so that you know people got options.
Heaving you card a little bit earlier.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
Yes, yep, you just get that carving right for the window. Yes, yes,
oh that's really good.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
And so just to touch back with that storm there
a couple of weeks ago. You obviously you've had a
drive around the district. Not a lot for you, though,
you feel a lot. You've got off pretty lightly. I
think you may have been away, were you when it happened?
Speaker 7 (12:45):
Yeah, yeah, I was think sure. I'm a global focus
program for Noffield. The last stint was a five week,
five week compulsory program, which was just a juggle as
it was for the time of year I've even got
going on, but yeah, no, and i'd sort of gone
through Canada Scotland then I was in early, saw the
storm coming and just kept in touch with home and stuff.
(13:10):
Certainly had the work cut out for them, and you
know it didn't go all to plan for them, and our
generator blew up day two. We've had a generator for
twenty years, so that was a bit frustrating, but the
good old community pulled together and we got managed to
finish milking, get the cows off the platform, and then
my brother miniged to locate a generator out of Sinclow target.
(13:30):
My parents dragged it down and got us going that afternoon,
so we got pretty I think the biggest window we
had was nineteen or twenty years for milking. Cows were
just peaking, and to be honest, to think that Brydon
farms still peaking. Are the older cares that were carving
later certainly have noticed that we've come off your peak
on the younger cares. That means so yeah. But three damage, Yeah,
(13:53):
a few sheds losing the lost rooms. Actually a roof
come down on a pen of cars, but luckily the
the gate caught caught the roof and literally ended up
with just a mazzanine floor above them. No casualty, So
very lucky here and a few trees down. The only
real trees we hading at Briden were the ones that
snapped the one dawn wire at feeding the farm, and
(14:13):
it just took a while to get pound it, to
get to realize was how to action get done. But
all in all, I think we've got off light. Now
we're just parking up and waiting for diggers. We've cleared
what we had to, but I do see a real
health and safety risk with these trees. And I've just
contacted local contricy when when you're local with your digger
and the cutting saw on it, we'll just get and
(14:34):
we've done all we need to do. We've got other
stuff to get on with. And yeah, it is a
conversation we had in a coshy local all Support Trust
and Mark Patterson was you know that was the biggest
thing that came out of the conversation was, Yeah, there's
obviously the obvious around house fly for farms, but the
biggest was people whistling out there with chainsaws and these
(14:54):
trees and quite a curious situation with the stump still attached.
And yeah, just a real concern that people aren't just
focused on cleaning up for the sake of cleaning up.
What can they get away with to operate the farm
And appreciate that it's hard for people to sit back
and look, but you know, the farm can still operate
as long as you've got water and temporary features running around.
(15:17):
We can sill operate these farms, so it's probably the
one miss is and trying to sue of people as
just patients could save lives.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
And that is a message that it's been reiterated a
couple of times just about the whole safety the weight
of a tree route with soil or around it versus
cutting it off halfway up. You know where's it's pressure point?
How safe are you?
Speaker 9 (15:39):
So?
Speaker 3 (15:39):
And I think, yeah, you're down.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
To diggers and even still spotters with diggers as long
as you're at a safe distance.
Speaker 7 (15:46):
Absolutely, you know, it's there's not a huge amount of
people out there with their tickets for chainsaws my understanding,
a lot of older guys. Yeah, and you know, I
guess yes, see our worksfe stuff does have to come
into account about exposure for businesses. So yeah, hey, summing
(16:08):
your back's going to change people's attitudes too, right, absolutely, yeah,
so that's a big thing. I think the sun coming
out couldn't have been timed any better.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
And I still think the most critical part with the
destruction is the farms and businesses still have to function
as they were, whether this has happened or not. Like
you've still got plenty to do without the tree.
Speaker 3 (16:25):
Clean up.
Speaker 7 (16:27):
Yes, so can I wait, Yes, this is the question
that people need to ask themselves because prioritizing mate and
prioritize feeding, getting ecuppment feeder and getting water done, getting
the crops, and they are the crucial ones. They always
a crucial ones, a number of those before Christmas. And
you know is then there are options too, Like I
think as the dust settles, there might be more options
(16:49):
potentially for logs to come off farms to go to
locke to port or mills or whatever. So let's not
rush in and actually waite a product there as well
as the other side of too.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
What Yeah, be patient, m Now tell me though, just
because you had to come back from your travels, how
fast how were you and is there any change you
can catch any of that back up?
Speaker 7 (17:09):
Yeah, so I was about a third of the way.
I'm not quite halfway into it. And so the group
carried on from Italy to Spain and there they've just
landed in India, which is I was sort of that
was sort of the one I was really looking forward
to because I want to see how the dairy cooperative
works over there. It is globally one of the big
is the biggest in the world and a huge number
(17:31):
of small farms, so a massive chunk of moving parts
with from that. So I was quite fasting to see that.
But they finish up in Ossie and I'm planning on
joining them next week for the final week in Aussie.
So yeah, so not not done yet.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
Last you just have to organize another trip to India.
Speaker 7 (17:49):
Yeah, yeah, exactly. So you know, look, the reality of
this is the first world problem that I've got. No
one's hurt, cares me. Milk business is running, and yes
we we done to the road, but it is what
it is, and I'm just very grateful that I was
like enough, thing's carried on smoothishit at home, but probably
got home just some time. Staff were starting to get
(18:10):
some bags on their eyes. As soon as I got home,
I seen half the crew away for a couple of
days to recharge, and I know the family is quite
relieved to be able to hand the reins over. When
I walked to the door.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
Yeah perfect, well he went safe and happy and you're
doing your best for them, so well done, mate. Yep,
all right, mate, appreciate it. I'm a bit done here.
I'll thanks very much for your time and we'll keep
in touch. I'll catch up there another time, but and
you certainly will be back in touch.
Speaker 7 (18:37):
No worries.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
The horn, silence, the muster, proudly brought to you by
Peter's Genetics. Every drip means quite a bit when it's
from Peter's Genetics.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
With us Now on the show, we've got Ben Dooley,
Wyndham farmer and a bit of a what are you
social media?
Speaker 3 (19:01):
As well? Has it been?
Speaker 2 (19:02):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (19:02):
I wouldn't go as far as to say, Guru, well,
I spend a bit of time on there, but yeah.
Speaker 3 (19:08):
I mean, what's that thing in your world?
Speaker 2 (19:09):
On the farm obviously, I guess the one topic on
people's lips are still the storm.
Speaker 3 (19:14):
How'd you feel through that?
Speaker 8 (19:15):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (19:16):
We were. We were pretty good and chest looking around
at some of the damage. A lot of other people
have got around the place. A lot of branches down,
a few trees down, a couple of fences to fix,
but going a bit of clear lot off the roofs
and the yards. But yeather than that, we got off.
We got off pretty lot. But by croaky shoe was
a gust. We were hailing some pet lambs up in
(19:36):
the Hayshie and we're given up because we couldn't keep
the orang lit. We see the rain coming, but we
couldn't see the wind coming. And yeah, yeah it came
in a bit three seconds later. The year it was
full of timber and dust. Couldn't believe the dust that
came out from under the trees. But yeah, just the
way it was, it.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
Was kind of like a seating storm that I saw
it and gore it was, but it was just rain.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
Yeah, it was quite.
Speaker 6 (19:58):
A picked up picked up everything, didn't they It.
Speaker 3 (20:01):
Was amazing and in a bad way.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
But I look at you know, I've said this last
week too, but where we are it's not bad. But
I've sort of been venturing further out over the weekend,
but down towards the carg when just thinking of the
main rays. But there's a lot of debris down in places.
Speaker 6 (20:16):
Yeah, there's a lot of massive, big old trees down there,
certainly stood the test of time before. But then they
do keep even taller too.
Speaker 3 (20:22):
Don't they they do.
Speaker 6 (20:23):
Yeah, But yeah, there's a lot of damage to buildings
around as well. One of the main pho here, and
there's a couple of sheds have lost their roofs, and yeah,
there's a few houses around there are damaged and wall
sheds and everything else, so there's going to be a
few workpening up from it. Yeah, there's not much we
can do about the weather is there.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
And as the grandstand still standing at the race course,
I think the roof went, didn't it.
Speaker 6 (20:43):
Yeah, still standing, but the roof is or most of
the roof is gone. Yeah, so I'm not sure what
they'll do there.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
It's sad to see those old structures like that, doesn't it?
Speaker 6 (20:51):
That is it really is?
Speaker 3 (20:53):
What else you got ening on farm?
Speaker 6 (20:55):
Yeah, we're yeah, sort of struggling. But at the moment
we had a I don't mean we get tailing downe
pretty early on October and I wasn't real keen to go,
but we looked at the forecast for the week after
that and decided, no, we might take that opportunity.
Speaker 3 (21:07):
Yep.
Speaker 6 (21:07):
Just meant there was a few ams at six or
seven days getting tailed. But there's a week for you
out there that haven't made that up real well. But
most things are pretty good in that respect. But yeah,
if we hadn't got it done, I think we're just
a bit of doing it today, which is getting a
bit late, but yeah, covers are real tight. We put
a bit of your ear over a bit a third
of the farm or three or four three days ago,
(21:29):
which was yeah, just put the ball, decided she's time
to do it, So a little bit over a lot
method and yeah, looking forward to this next week of
heat or ten days of.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
Surely, yeah, surely you're going to get something out of
us to get things growing. And it seems to be
one of those hand to mouth seasons. It turns up
and then it's gone pretty quick too, And just the
nature of what the spring's being, isn't it.
Speaker 6 (21:52):
Yeah, absolutely, Now she's she's been a challenging one. I
don't think we'll have any quality controller she's come waning though.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
No, I don't think you will.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
Although of course the later things do grow, the higher
chance things turning to seed and places to isn't it.
Speaker 6 (22:06):
Yeah, And there is a risk. And that's what I
thought when I was putting your ear on. I'll do
fifty kgs over twice the yerea and that should be
a bit easier to keep on top of them doing
one hundred in a few areas and just losing it.
So but it's it's just one thing that's going to happen.
It's going to go to seed, and we've just got
to work with it. There's no point trying to stop
it because yeah, it's going to happen, So that's.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
Right, And as long as it whether stays good and
plays the game. Yeah, a little bit poorer quality, but
feed as better than nothing.
Speaker 6 (22:34):
Yeah, and we just don't know what's going to happen
over summer, so any feed we can have on hand,
Like I'm guessing there's not many sheet guys anywhere that
I've even thought about where they're locking up any bailage
or hate or anything new or silage. So we've got
options if it does go. But yeah, it's got a
it's got a few ways to go before we start
worrying about it gett out of control.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
Well, I'm just looking at Northern South and just the
other day I was up there on said they only
a couple of farms have actually started mowing to make
siloe too, which is a lot later than the norm
from what we would have been even five years ago.
Speaker 6 (23:05):
Yeah. Well I had a snipcheit gave me you're a
winder the other day that h three years ago we
made I think about three hundred and fifty dollars of
daileage on the twenty eighth or ninth of October. And yeah,
this year we haven't even got anything.
Speaker 3 (23:19):
Locked up here it yep, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 6 (23:23):
It said Seuthen has a habit of I won't say
that's saying that one Dan's wine Stein rabbage up. But
we always get a good burst somewhere, so if we
haven't had it early, we might just get it a
bit later.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
Yeah, I think we're reasibly reliable. It's just olds when
it comes.
Speaker 6 (23:38):
I'll just knock on some ward here spinning in a wardshead.
So yeah, recovery basis.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
There same Hey excuse me, And currently you're it a
working beat. You've got the school pete day tomorrow.
Speaker 6 (23:53):
Yeah, yeah, wood and would I think it's the lower Materia.
Actually went to meeting del tudor El a few others
pet Day tomorrow, so you just got off. There's actually
a heap of people who turned up, so I've got
time to duck away and do this. But just getting
the show grounds tided up a little bit and get
set up for tomorrow and then makes tomorrow an a
bit easier. So yeah, it should be a good day.
I think the kids will still enjoy it. And yeah,
hey it's a day off school for them, tour, isn't it.
Speaker 3 (24:14):
So it is.
Speaker 6 (24:15):
I always love that.
Speaker 2 (24:16):
And they get the show off the peak dog or
a lamb or a car or something, which is what
it's all.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
About, isn't it.
Speaker 5 (24:22):
Absolutely.
Speaker 6 (24:23):
And there's a lot a lot of kids these days
doing the other entries to the baking and the sand
sources and whatever else they do, which is quite cool
to see. So she's not just about the pets, but mainly.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
That's rarely area if it's not with kidding, he how's that?
Speaker 6 (24:37):
We absolutely?
Speaker 3 (24:40):
Yeah, all right mate, Hey we might leave that there.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
I'll yeah, we'll just tidy up and and you'll be
back in touch with you and the next time around.
Speaker 6 (24:48):
No sounds good man, we'll catch you later on.
Speaker 3 (24:50):
Thanks.
Speaker 6 (24:51):
It's out.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
The Muster, proudly brought to you by Peter's Genetics. Every
drop means quite a lot when it's from Peter's Genetics.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
On the show.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
Right there, we've got Senior Sergeant Gary dingon from the
goold Police. Get I Gary a bit of rolling stones.
She's so cold, certainly warm me up out there.
Speaker 3 (25:22):
To day.
Speaker 9 (25:23):
Yeah, a nice bit of music there, Chris, and thanks
for having me on today and thanks for the good
community as well.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
Yeah, and we've been hitting out there obviously a wee
bit of activity with the weather wise, is that.
Speaker 3 (25:35):
Created opportunity for any thiefts or anything like that.
Speaker 9 (25:39):
Well, we're just there's always opportunities out there. We've just
obviously there's a lot of tiny's still been known, people
without power. So what we're saying to people out there
is if you do see anything sort of especially in
the world right what one want of its surgeon and
if it's too good to be true, just make sure
we make it uncomfortable for these opportunists thieves.
Speaker 6 (25:55):
Yep, we've we've.
Speaker 9 (25:57):
Had a bit of unfortunate around copper thefts and piping.
Whilst we're getting some good results, we saw reach out
to the community for intelligence and crime stoppers to try
and catch them and hold them accountable.
Speaker 3 (26:08):
Here enough to get rid of them.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
Absolutely no place for them, Hey, roads, what are we
what's sitting on the roads these days?
Speaker 9 (26:17):
So we've been some really good good behavior recently, but
we're also still targeting and still getting ODRD drink driver
making them risks repeat conversations, you know, make good choices,
plan new evenings as opposed to having one consequences you know,
ends up being a sort of fatal or a serious
consequence life changing for life. Just a reminder to people
(26:38):
just to watch the speeds off the phones. And we've
just noticed a little bit of increase around young sorry
people driving thinking it's funny to do sustain lots of
traction and can tour on the roads within the area. Yep,
can rest assure it's not. We will see your vehicle
and put you before the courts. So I just don't
want anyone anyone getting seriously injured or killed because of
stupid driving.
Speaker 3 (26:59):
And it could be quite costly.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
I'm sure that there'll be plenty of appearance with the
other and arms of these silly young people were making
silly decisions.
Speaker 9 (27:07):
Costing and property and costly and serious injury in life
could be And we've just just I know the scores
is finished now, but there has been sort of a
few complaints around students hanging out the windows thinking it's
funny out the summ roof. But if you continue to
do so, inviting them along to see what the consequences
of a serious crash or so are not coming out
at the end of the night. They're thinking it's great
(27:29):
having been of fun and it's great that you've finished
the year, but just think about the consequences.
Speaker 3 (27:34):
Yeah, that's brutal saying that, but its effective.
Speaker 6 (27:37):
Yeah, absolutely, And.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
Then you'll well, I haven't seen any chick points over
the weekend, but there's still ongoing chick points and just
checking out for drivers.
Speaker 9 (27:48):
We'll do checkpoints were basically across the whole area, including
all the rural areas as well. You know, if this
functions on or whatever, we'll still be targeting and we'll
have people out in about mobile troll specifically for it.
So it's just obviously not going to stop. Just it's
gonna be all over the place at different times.
Speaker 3 (28:04):
Yes, they're coming into the feast of season.
Speaker 2 (28:05):
Make sure you've got a saber driver or yeah, a
safe way home or sleeping.
Speaker 9 (28:10):
Big absolutely, or find a friend or you know, just
plan plan planners with what we're saying, get home safe.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
Oh no, that's all very very wise.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
Anything else hit me out there that would you'd like
to make people aware of.
Speaker 9 (28:25):
I just think just you know, if there's lots of
suspicious activity around.
Speaker 6 (28:30):
Sort of in the rural properties.
Speaker 9 (28:32):
So what we're saying to people is again inside Gore
as well. If you see something and it's happening at
the time, one one one, and if it's something that
you don't want to put your name to but it's
for intelligence, then crime stoppers. We are actively building pictures
continuously and daily looking at how we can tie target
high risk offenders and take them off our streets.
Speaker 2 (28:51):
Well that's what that's what you're there for, and that's
what nobody else wants, isn't it.
Speaker 9 (28:55):
Absolutely just want to have a great Christmas, happy New
Year and when it comes, without which wait and enjoy yourself.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
Sick cool too, all right, Gary, Senior Sergeant from Gore,
Gary Ardenton, thank you for your time and we'll all
the best and we'll catch up with you another time.
Speaker 7 (29:12):
Yeah, thanks Christ, thanks for the whole community again.
Speaker 6 (29:14):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (29:29):

Peter's Genetics. Clayton, fantastic sponsors of the show.
Speaker 3 (29:36):
How are you getting on?
Speaker 8 (29:37):
Oh good, thanks Christ, you know canath and playing on
a daylight today. She's it's good to see the sunny.
No one, We're busy tailing, and everyone's got a smile
new face because they're not.
Speaker 5 (29:47):
So they're shoving from the wind or the rain and stuff.
Speaker 8 (29:49):
So it's it's me.

It's gonna be a good.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
Day tailing, going to go from wind Burn to Sunburn.
Speaker 8 (29:54):
Yeah, well I'd rather hear it that way, yea.
Speaker 3 (29:57):
And how far three tailor are you?
Speaker 8 (30:01):
Uh?
Speaker 5 (30:01):
Well, after the day we well, we're probably yeah, we're
going about four or four good days tail left and
then we'll get on the hobbits and late, so you're
probably about six days tail left, so we're about they're about.
Speaker 8 (30:11):
Five days six days behind, but like most people, but
we'll have a good week this week and catch up.
And obviously we've haven't had many trackless going, but we've
got the first seed in the ground on Saturday, so
so we're begg into that. And yeah, so we'll just
keep going, get this toiling on the road and get
track where it's done, and then yeah, do some drink
testing on some lambs, see when need to drench any lambs,
(30:33):
but hopefully we don't have to do so.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
Yeah, how are the lambs in the years for them?
How are they looking? And not that I need to
know percentages, but you're happy with your percentages you're seeing
so far.
Speaker 8 (30:44):
Oh listen, we we we with the way the weather was,
we new things are going to be back. We got
pretty hard with that that bed Saturday afternoon. But we're
we're gonna be up on last year. But we're actually
at the bar proper at the moment. It's actually looking
good over here. But we'll shower over here though, and
the lambs, the lambs are actually just getting big enough
to tar. We're got a few guys complaining that lefting
and including me, but we're definitely everything to get behind.
(31:05):
So but the you who's looking at good note with
the feet hung on, it's yeah, the last week it
has disappeared. But whether get a week week of starting,
we should be right again.
Speaker 3 (31:14):
Right, well, so you're not too bad off?
Speaker 8 (31:18):
No, No, we like we were hoping for a ripper
lemming because all the skinnings were well up and really good.
But obviously whether it takes that, so we're just got
to go with it and and grow the lambs out
the ones we've got.
Speaker 2 (31:29):
So yeah, it just you neva seems to me that
sometimes does it. It's just a leave whether you somewhere
that keeps up the same average.
Speaker 8 (31:36):
Well it does yet, like I think the biggest thing
is getting the lambs in for a start, and yeah,
uh yeah so and just yeah, but we're just yeah,
we can't do much about it. It's it's gonna be.
We're probably be about overall five percent over the all
the trophies better off for the last year, so I hope. So, yeah,
the hobbits of blend really well with what we the
ones out at home. We haven't even I think we've
(31:56):
gone around the five days and in the twenty days
and we haven't haven't touched the hobbit. So that's we're
pretty happy with that.
Speaker 2 (32:03):
Oh you would be. You would be in there. As
we said that the sun on the backs not only
is it good for people, it's good for your mind.
Speaker 5 (32:09):
Yeah, it is.
Speaker 8 (32:09):
Like even just yesterday, even though I was at CDF
the Sun's twenty first and Saturday, I was, you know,
look around the lambs and everything was happy, just sitting
in the sun and a bit of warmth. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
But other than that, we're just yeah, we've got ram
sitting around the corner in the second week of December
and the two s raands looking really good. So you're
(32:29):
looking forward to that too.
Speaker 2 (32:30):
And with the track to work, you've got some seeds
in the ground. I'm assuming you've been working on a
bit of grass.
Speaker 8 (32:36):
No, we're just concentrated on going to leap the tournament
for for the lambs. That's a priory and then we'll
get on to the is that where she haven't got
a lot of young grass going and she is will
most of the Leaffield ground to grass in the autumn.
So but yeah, we are, we are behind the track
at work. And yeah, so I'm lucky. I've got a
son home from like and he's gonna jump on the
Seacond tractor for a few weeks and hopefully we catch up.
Speaker 5 (32:58):
So yeah, and.
Speaker 2 (32:59):
Get that, well you get one and to get the
other end and all of a sudden, well it just
seems to happened.
Speaker 3 (33:04):
But yeah, how are.
Speaker 2 (33:06):
Those conditions or how have they been? Obviously you're slow
just the week just everything like everyone else is it.
Speaker 8 (33:11):
Yeah, like you get you get a couple of days
in and then you get raid again and then yeah
everything's too weak to touch and then and but we're
probably we'll catch up pretty quickly. Like it's just a
matter of getting getting the big drill gown for a
two or three days non stop.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
So yeah, very good, and I hit the fortune slash
misfortunate meeting a couple of the why Cooey Cooey cricketers
at the pub on Saturday night. They were well on
their way after. I believe both teams had a good one.
Obviously you couldn't make it. You're looking at don the
Whites again this season?
Speaker 8 (33:43):
Oh, I think so, yeah, I'm just yeah, we just
we've been quite busy at the moment we tired on
said they just been and then it was sty First
I to the other the stuff there and get sorted
out for that and then yeah, I depend on what
I'll probably make a start, not this, not this weekend,
proably the following, I'd say, but it sounds like them
might not leaed me. Both both teams are winning, so
good luck to them.
Speaker 2 (34:02):
Well, yeah, I think BEGINNDI mirrors he Fancy's putting the
Whites on for a wee cameo here in the tube
by the sounds of it.
Speaker 8 (34:08):
Yeah, I see he's going to play austright, I have
to come back.

off farm today and and I've never been a big cricketer,
but it's just it's just good fun. You can go
out and meet different people and stuff. It's yeah, it's good.
Speaker 3 (34:28):

Speaker 2 (34:30):

with your old people that even know and just yeah
it feels the soul.

It's amazing here you run, you're running a few ram
clients and bits of pieces. You never know where you
see people. So no, it's just good fun.
