Carrying a $500 boom-box, two yellow signs, a water bottle and adorned in a kina ring she designed herself, Estelle walks down Cuba St in Wellington’s Te Aro with a smile.
She uses blue chalk to draw a large, uneven oval onto the cobblestone pavement alongside the words join the dance.
And then she starts to dance.
For the past 11 weeks she’s been coming to Cuba St during people’s lunch hour. She sees dancing as a way of making people relax and encourages everybody to give it a go.

Motor cyclist have to pay over $400 per year to cover ACC cost (apparently they are dangerous).
I was at A&E with my Dad in the winter and I counted 3 rugby 2 football 1 Hockey and 3 cyclist injuries (no motor cyclists) I think the govt and ACC need to look into this.

"Since I have been here, I have found a new best friend so will need to be adopted Kanan. He is quite shy, and will need an experienced family. This is what my foster family said about me. "Sophie was shy and hid a lot when she first came home with me. I put some food by her hiding spot and a little trail towards me and she came out and was affectionate. Until she feels safe she will hide. Sophie still - 3 months later - hides when other people come to the house, but is brave and affectionate with me. Sophie isn't really interested in toys and prefers to sleep in the sun or hang out with me. She will either snuggle into my leg on the sofa or on my lap. When she wants attention she will pat me with her paw. In the evening I would cradle her like a baby and sing to her and rub her belly, she loved it." I would do best with someone around for parts of the day, and will need to be indoors for some time until I feel safe."

Don't book on the library replacing David Jones when it closes next year.
The store, part of a trans-Tasman chain owned by South Africa-based Woolworths, will close in June next year, with the loss of more than 150 jobs and the prospect of a gaping hole in the city’s golden mile.

The store, part of a trans-Tasman chain owned by South Africa-based Woolworths, will close in June next year, with the loss of more than 150 jobs and the prospect of a gaping hole in the city’s golden mile.
Experts say it is unsuitable for a library and are confident new tenants will be found. Offices and multiple retailers on the ground floor are considered more likely.
If you want to smarten up your look before you hit the office tomorrow, pop in today for a haircut. We are open today and every Sunday 10-4pm. 31 Waitoa road, Hataitai
