Greeting fellow humans in lockdown :-)


I am from Miami, Florida, USA, the cutting edge of dance music since the '70's. I love to dance and have have literally enjoyed thousands of hours in clubs across the planet.


Over lockdown, I have compiled some of the best dance music that I have heard into 1 playlist. It has 120 dance tunes, from the '70's to the '90's, with some classic rock included that will get you off your bum. Here it is.

If you enjoy this music, I invite you to come to one of my meetups every Friday at a different bar in Wellington. We always get drink specials until 10:00 and free nibbles. You will have fun though even if you do not drink. For more information, check out these links.

The Wellington City Council has broken precedent and a nationwide trend by sending its parking wardens out ticketing more than 800 cars during alert level 3.
The council deemed all parking free during 2020's alert level 4 and all but one day of level 3 but not this time around. A look around central Wellington streets late on Saturday morning found many empty parks but most of those cars that were parked had been ticketed. Some stretches of road had tickets on every parked car.
Do you think parking should be free in lockdown?

Over lockdown Neighbourly is running stories on SPCA pets that have been successfully adopted. This week it is Zoe.

“The adoption has progressed really well with our little Zoe. Before we went to pick her up, I had a whole list of elegant princess type of names to rename her, but now that she has fully settled in, we have come to realise she is quite the opposite of that and more of a mischief cheeky troublemaker.
After a couple of weeks of slowly introducing each other, Zoe and her feline brother have gotten along a lot better than we anticipated. What she lacks in hearing she definitely makes up in with her voice and all the random noises she constantly makes. We bought her a large expensive cat tower and of course she much prefers to sleep and play around in a paper bag, so that has been fun being woken up at 3am with her rustling around in the bag.
Her new favourite area of the house is the bathroom where she loves to sit on the bath for hours and watch the water slowly drip out of the tap or go and rip up every single piece of toilet paper. She is constantly making us laugh and is so full of character and is loved by all our family and friends. Thanks so much for everything.”
