The other in Masterton was Paddy O’brien, used to sell him Venision and hares. After Paddy passed, the facility processed Pāua, was jointly owned by Owen “frog” Fairbrother. Biggest Pāua processing plant in New Zealand Frog told me a couple of years ago. Owen passed away about 6 months ago.
Fred Burling owned Burling Transport and was on my R/T frequency. The air would turn blue when old Fred got into sorting one of his drivers, Goff enough to pull over and listen to the exchange, mainly Johnny Bak would be his favourite to pour shit over. Both those guys are no longer with us.
Boom, cough,cough,cough
