I was 3-4, brother 2 and another newborn. It was the Broom to Boom decade of Taupo development. Forestry, sawmills all over town, building everywhere. My Dad a builder designer.
I am glad that I was alive back then, it was okay, I am also rather pleased that I am still alive now. I think that there were more individual freedoms then than now.
Thank you for posting this. My mother is the beautiful Maori woman guiding at Geyser Valley at that time

@TERENCE896 His accent isn`t received pronunciation . Its `standard English` , and the most common accent in the South East .
Sounds very British the accent
The kiwi accent was very British back then
In 1964 Kiwi and Oz accents the same!
and 2013 not much difference to a pomme like me!
The proper pronounciation for Taupo if written in english is toe (toe on a foot) poor (the poor man had no shoes)
toe-poor
toe - paw

He is pronouncing it as it was pronounced then. Before all the politically correct stuff happened.
