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.

Ever since they changed the transponder frequency I have no more reception. I do have the box plugged in and the remote and tried everything to change it but no luck. Is there anyone on Neighbourly who can do this for me? I will pay you for your time of course. I took a screenshot of the BVN website with details, but it does not mean anything to me. ( I know you can get BVN online, but I have the whole setup already and would like to use it.

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.
Free Office Chair - the seat tips forward and won't stay in the right spot. Otherwise, very comfy if you can fix it.
Another easy one this week. Where is it and what are your memories?

I am selling a number of items I am not using. This electronic cooker ( fuzzy microcomputer) is in great condition. It cooks different types of rice as well as soup , porridge etc. and has a steamer and keep warm function. Operating instructions ( with recipes) are included.
This stain remover is excellent for spillages, spots, pet stains, upholstery and the car. I bought it at the time, because I thought my large Bissell carpet cleaner could not be fixed, but I was wrong, so I have only used this cleaner about half a dozen times.

I bought it at the time, because I thought my large Bissell carpet cleaner could not be fixed, but I was wrong, so I have only used this cleaner about half a dozen times. It is for sale at Godfreys for $249, so this is a bargain. Godfreys also sells the carpet shampoos for this machine. The Bissell is in excellent order and comes with the user guide.
It is very easy to operate.
