A good friend of mine, Elly, is one of the lucky (or unlucky!!!) few whose birthday falls on the 29h of February. She turned six today, and certainly acts like it!

Heidi and the Hightops covered The Haunted Windchimes' "Don't Take My Baby Away" for the first installment of local talent time for 2016.

Heidi and the Heightops dropped into the studio to have a chat and they played a little number for us as we welcomed back local talent time for the first time in 2016! And weren't they just brilliant!
