Field Days are definitely a big deal when it comes to the farming and rural communities. They're sort of a Disneyland for country folk! As for that Creamota factory, featuring Sergeant Dan the Creamoata Man, as a child growing up, I often had Creamota porridge for breakfast, then Thistle Rolled Oats when I got older. Fond memories of both!
Been following you guys for the past few months. You go to some interesting places and events! Glad you see more of NZ than just the tourist attractions. Enjoy yourselves!
I love Gore and I spent a wonderful summer in Wyndham. Mustering on horseback. I was also there as a teenager during the floods in the late 70s. Helped with sandbagging!! Love the South Island community spirit. Much love from the Wairarapa. Love the content guys!! Really some of the best I have seen on our beautiful Nation!!
Absolute legend! we need more people like you my friend. people helping each other when in need is when the world becomes a better placer :) hope your enjoying the content haha were just being us :)
Us Kiwi's love our Field Day shows they are usually big events like this one. A great way for manufactures to show off their wares and a great day out for the public.
Love you video. Went to high school and did my nursing in Gore. Lived in Riversdale but also used to go to Field days which are great. Apart from the town people all the farmers from miles around go to these field days. Gore is a central town for farmers. Had not realised that the Creamoata industry had closed. Just one little thing and it’s probably just me but find when you turn the camera real quick it plays havoc with my eyes-lol. Keep up the good work.
Hi Glen and Mado. My son was down at the field days. His company make farm harrows at West Melton just a short distance from Christchurch. They had a display going on there. I was scanning the background in your video just in case I saw him. Looked like a good day out. I ;like that you visit all these small towns as well as the cities to get a good overall impression of NZ
I grew up in Gore. Haven't been back there in a long time so it was great to watch you wander around town. Followed you for a couple of months now. Your Kepler Track video was awesome. Te Anau is my happy place, we go there once a year for a week to chill out. All the best, glad your enjoying our country.
Southland - and Otago - were the richest parts of NZ in the second half of the 19thc., thanks to gold, the development of railways opening up vast areas for farming, and eventually the frozen meat trade to the UK. Gore is in about the middle of Southland, and there are still lots of successful farms all round - not that any farmer would ever acknowledge they do alright!
The military "lady" is Sgt Dan. The brand mascot Sergeant Dan the Creamoata Man made his appearance in the 1920s. Creamoata was discontinued as a product in New Zealand around 2009 when stocks ran down. The Flemings brand is now owned by a large food conglomerate.
Hahah yeah I’ve been the Cluji! Loved the Langos there! Made a video too actually but will upload when I get back home as need to get all the New Zealand videos il first
Loving your videos, Watching from Waimate in South Canterbury. Hope you one's have time to visit Waimate, It is between Oamaru and Timaru. In the South Island Nz . :)
Great to see how Gore has come on. In the mid 60's we knew it as a stop for pies, separate public toilets for Gentlemen,Ladies and Boys, on the way to Fiordland, and of course where the porridge came form
Gore has a really nice Country Western night, I was surprised by the talent there. gore is the Country & Western capital of NZ. nearby there are Dutchman producing tulip bulbs, they found out Gore was good for that and I think they ship them back to the Nederlands
@@GlenAndMado They pretty much charge what they like on Valentines Day. Couldn't help but look at the big field of sunflowers you showed from the earlier vid and try to imagine what they'd be worth at 3 for $50!

Imagine meeting a leprechaun in Gore! what next?

Gore has a really nice Country Western night, I was surprised by the talent there. gore is the Country & Western capital of NZ. nearby there are Dutchman producing tulip bulbs, they found out Gore was good for that and I think they ship them back to the Nederlands
