The Country's Jamie Mackay catches up with Sir Brian Lochore, our Roving North Island Farming Ambassador.
As a sheep farmer Sir Brian lends his opinions on Brexit, the weather in the Wairarapa and what's going on with the rainfall on his son's farm up the road in Coastal Hawkes Bay.
Jamie Mackay can't resist asking about the Auckland housing crisis and whether it keeps Sir Brian awake at night. Mackay is rewarded with a no-nonsense answer for his troubles.
Of course you can't talk to the ex-All Blacks great without mentioning a bit of footy! What are Sir Brian Lochore's picks for the Super Rugby this weekend?
