About Me
New to Digital Scrapbooking, just started in 2019, want to make a record of family stories before my mother passes away. My dad died in 2016. I currently live in Canada but was born and raised in New Zealand, and emigrated to Canada upon marrying my Canadian spouse. Home Country - lets see - New Zealand or Canada? Which to choose? Most of my photos will be from NZ, but any pics of my son will be from Canada. MY IP Address will say that I am in Canada which is fine. My mother and sister are still back in NZ so I will make my home country as NZ for now. For Facebook, I dont check it every day - I am not addicted to FB, and I use a different name for privacy. My image is myself as a child - aged about 2 or 3 years old

How many of you remember the catchy disco song called Hands Up by Ottawan that came out in 1981?
This song had really cool music, a catchy melody, and a great synthesized beat. It also had relatively easy words to sing and was a great song to dance to. I had never heard of this group, Ottawan before, but their catchy song, Hands Up, went to number one on the music charts in New Zealand and stayed there for some 8 weeks. It not until many years later that I learnt that this group came from Ottawa in Canada.
Even now, some 40 years later, I still LOVE this song which is why I am making yet another music layout to cover one of my most favourite songs ever!!
