There is a RPM instructor who has on his track list what is perhaps my favourite of all favourite RPM tracks. I've discovered it's a Yoots song. It starts off real slowly, then has this "ska" section, followed by a sort of celtic section. It's clever and has good rhythm. It's not technically on the RPM LM playlist, although that doesn't deter the instructor. I don't get to his classes very often, but he is a good instructor (a little mean though! - although that's why he is a good instructor!)
Unfortunately, I can't locate it on You Tube. Instead there is this tune which I guess like most people my age reminds me of singing it at primary school.

I start my work gig tomorrow - makes it sound exciting to frame it like that eh? (it is exciting when you have been on a staycation in Carterton!). This is going to mess with plans to enrol at Work and Income as it will stuff up my eligibility. However, it will get me back on the Terrace.
Yay for whanau ora, and a job that will return me to a workplace I know quite well, but will have changed, like I guess I like to think I have since I was there last. Yay for a gig that is close to my LM home on the Terrace.
Praise and thanks to God for meeting my need. I don't completely understand God's timing and project planning but I'm trying.
This All Black version is quite good too - and it's good to be reminded of the translation:

Breaking news of the day is I found my "original" birth certificate in a quite random place. I'll now be putting in a safe place in anticipation of getting a renewed passport - soon-ish. I like to think that its a sign that now that I've found it, I wont need it - not at least in terms of Work and Income purposes.
Didn't exercise today - other than a brisk walk to the hairdressers with all the ladies over 70 today getting their weekly "set" done!
It would have been quite cool to cycle the Gladstone route because the snow was so low on the hills there. Although I didn't want to freeze today and I can't afford to catch a cold when I need to be well for work.
Will make sure I get into LM on the Terrace tomorrow. Maybe not for a RPM session but a gym session.
RPM is currently 92/100. Slowly closing in on the target!
98 days until Taupo - eek - it's approaching FAST
