This research is going to examine how a 3-months mini-trampoline exercise programme can improve overall fitness, bone density, and pelvic floor muscle functioning in older healthy women.

Travelling into and from Wellington every day I notice the poor driving by many drivers.

We have the usual using cell phones, drinking coffee (with their heads tilted back), using the mirror to put on lipstick, diving under the dashboard to do God-knows-what, but yesterday afternoon was the best.
We noticed the white utility in the left lane heading towards Petone drifting right and then drifting left. The gaps between his vehicle and the others were gettting larger and larger.

As we passed I was absolutely surprised.

The driver had his head down looking at the piece of paper balanced on his steering wheel. In his right hand was a pen. He was writing on the paper and staring down into his lap from time to time.
We left him far behind as he drove slowly in the left lane and the gap between him and the car ahead of him got wider and wider.
When I learnt to drive many, many, many years ago we were told that one has to concentrate on driving.

Your trade vehicle is not a mobile office.

From the brief glimpse … View moreI have just returned from a walk on the stopbank where I found some mens glasses and black case on the track just north of the Melling Bridge. I am pretty sure they belong to the guy that had just passed me on his bike but by the time I got to the glasses he had disappeared! From the brief glimpse he was 'older' with grey hair and grey beard! If you think you know this cyclist or you are the owner of the glasses, please get in touch. Pip
