There's no way Jamie Mackay is wiping the smile off Andy Thompson's face today.

There's no way Jamie Mackay is wiping the smile off Andy Thompson's face today.

Andy Thompson is having wonderful weather in glorious Hokitika where it's currently 20 degrees!

Jamie tries to ruin his happy mood by bringing up Westland Milk Products and how they're falling behind Fonterra with their forecast payout. Thompson remains resolutely chipper.

Mackay further tries to upset Andy by comparing him to Donald Trump "without the hair". Even this cutting remark bounces off the West Coast Cow Cocky as he gets on a roll about the US Presidential debate.

Nothing is getting Andy Thompson down today while the sun is shining.
