In January, he set off to do the Paekākāriki escarpment track, including he section known as the Stairway to Heaven.
Although he was not feeling well, he did not want to let his partner Chantal Lynch down and decided to push on.
Halfway along the track, he suffered a heart attack and stopped breathing. A bystander began doing CPR and after 20 minutes, Duseigneur began to breathe for himself.
In Wellington Hospital he was placed in a coma and he needed surgery to put a stent in his heart. He has made a good recovery, although his memory of that day is not good.

From today, owner-occupiers of units and apartments in earthquake-prone buildings can apply for up to $250,000 in low-interest loans.
There are still 561 buildings overall, including units and apartments, registered as earthquake prone in Wellington City.
The average cost of earthquake repairs for apartments has been estimated at $500,000.
Minister for Building and Construction Jenny Salesa said the scheme aimed to help owners avoid being forced to sell their home or face “huge financial hardship”.

Lance Barnard might be the oldest barber in Wellington.
“It only feels like yesterday that I was the youngest,” Barnard jokes with a client. A fortnight ago Barnard moved from the barber shop on Courtenay Place where he spent the last 40 years cutting hair, to Cuba Barbers on Cuba Street.

Does anybody know if there has been a barber cutting hair longer than Lance.
Another easy one this week. Where is it and what are your memories?

Good news – 2021 is set to be the year of the long weekend.
Five out of 10 public holidays will be Mondayised (or Tuesdayised in one case) next year, which means if you work a standard Monday to Friday week, you can look forward to some extended breaks.
In fact, once you’ve tacked on the weekends, you’ll end up getting a whopping 25 days off out of those 10 stat days, plus your region’s anniversary day.

Does anybody have excess hay or wood fuel pellets? This little girl needs some of the moisture taken out of the penn, the heavy rainfall last week has made everything a bit squishy.
Hay is for her bedding not for eating so it doesn't have to be yummy
