Gru­ongeluk eis gesin FRANS LE ROUX
aarliete steier steeds nadat ’n rugbyskeidsregter, sy vrou en drie van hul kinders in die vroeë oggendure van Sondag dood is in ’n gru-botsing in die Paarlse Hoofstraat. Willie Blankenberg (39), sy vrou Dorothea (38) en hul kinders, Andrew-Wealer (15), Wilber (7) en Dorenika (4) was in die motor tydens die ongeluk. Die ongeluk het ’n paar honderd meter van die Retiefstraat-afdraai in Noorder-Paarl gebeur, slegs ’n half kilometer van die gesin se woning op ’n Noorder-Paarl plaas. Die Blankenberg-gesin van die plaas LaBorans was onderweg huis toe, toe ’n wit Toyota Hilux-bakkie hul groen Fiat Uno getref het. Ooggetuies het vertel dat die slag so hard was dat inwoners aan die onderpunt van Retiefstraat dit gehoor het. Die Hilux het die Paarl binnegekom vanaf
rigting Wellington en ’n ander voertuig probeer verbysteek. Dit het toe vermoedelik die Uno reg van voor getref. Die bestuurder van die Hilux het volgens die polisie eers van die toneel gevlug, maar hom later aan die polisie oorgegee. ’n Saak van strafbare manslag word nou deur die Paarl-polisie ondersoek en ’n bykomende saak van roekelose en nalatige bestuur kan ná verdere ondersoek volg. Die Hoofstraat was vir byna agt ure gesluit sodat forensiese deskundiges vanuit Kaapstad die toneel kon fynkam. Eers toé kon noodpersoneel die liggame van die slagoffers uit die verfrommelde wrak sny. Die Blankenberg-gesin was vroeër die dag op Tulbagh waar Willie ’n rugbywedstryd geblaas het. Hulle het later besoek afgelê by familie. Volgens Willie se suster, Surita Blankenberg, sukkel die familie om die tragedie te verwerk. “Dit is steeds vir ons almal baie onwerklik. Die hele verhaal het nog nie by ons inge-
sink nie. Hul ander twee kinders Ernest (18) en Danwill (12), ontvang berading met die hulp van JD Kirsten en die Nieuwedrift-skool. Ek wil ook net almal bedank vir hul ondersteuning gedurende hierdie moeilike tyd.” Ernest en Danwill het die dag van die tragedie tuis gebly. Boodskappe het van oral af ingestroom vir die Blankenberg-gesin. Nieuwedrift Primêr se skoolhoof Chris Bam het hul meegevoel uitgespreek teenoor die gesin: “Die nuus van die ongeluk het skok en ongeloof deur ons skoolgemeenskap gestuur. Ons as personeel is verskriklik hartseer om twee ouers en veral drie van ons leerders te verloor. Ons sukkel om die gebeure te verwerk.” Hy het gesê die Wes-Kaap Onderwysdepartement het die skool fantasties bygestaan en berading vir onderwysers en leerlinge gereël. Berading is ook vir die twee oorlewende broers, Danville en Ernest gereël. “Hulle was so geskok nadat hulle die nuus van hul familie se dood ontvang het dat hulle dadelik mediese
hulp moes kry. Die skool reël ook ’n gedenkdiens vir môre, Vrydag 3 Mei, in die Nieuwedrift-kerksaal om 12:00. Ons wil almal van reg oor die vallei, provinsie en die land bedank vir hul ondersteuning.” Die Boland Rugby Unie-president Francois Davids het sy en Boland Rugby se medelye uitgespreek met die tragiese heengaan van die skeidsregter Willie Blankenberg en sy gesin. “Hy was die afgelope agt jaar ’n skeidsregter by Boland Rugby. Willie het vanjaar in sy derde jaar in die top-kompetisie geblaas.” ’n Roudiens vir die hele gesin sal op Sondag 5 Mei om 12:00 plaasvind by St Peterstraat 13, Wellington waarna die diens by die Bethelkerk gehou sal word. * Residents of the Drakenstein valley are still reeling with shock after the horrific crash which killed five members of one family.
Hostage drama at Paarl Post Office
Paarl mag dalk ’n Kwela-finalis wees as top-dorp, maar Wellington mag binnekort ’n voorsprong hê. Dié dorp het vandeesweek weer bewys hoe hulle saamstaan met die verloop van die suksesvolle Safari-halfmarathon. En dit kort na hul sukses met die wêreldbekende Cape Epic. En vra vir Wellingtonners wat dra by tot hul sukses: “Ons staan almal saam, nie soos ons bure die Paarliete nie”. ) Well, it looks like something may just be happening with the Paarl Waterfront development. A new premises for the canoe club is being built on the other side of Market Street. But it remains to be seen when any development will be taking place on the Parys sports complex.
Plakstuk Die derde plakstuk in die plak-vir-jou-sakkompetisie waarin ’n leser R1 800 kan wen, verskyn vandag op bl. 22. Die kompetisie sluit op Vrydag 24 Mei om 10:00. Die wenner sal Maandag 27 Mei in kennis gestel word.

FRANS LE ROUX “If I look back now, everything feels so unreal. For those 20 minutes it felt like we were all trapped inside a bad action movie,” says a notably shocked hostage, James Lesch. An armed robbery in Lady Grey Street in Paarl’s business centre left post office customers in a state of shock on Thursday. At 15:50 five men entered the Paarl Post Office to do what seemed like normal business. “I stepped inside the post office but didn’t expect anything to be different. The normal queue was in front of me and customers were quietly awaiting their turn. Only after I saw the suspect in front of me with a blank post office slip, things started to feel funny.” Lesch had to collect a package for his wife and is very glad that his children did not accompany him. “We were all waiting patiently in the queue and while the line moved forward, it was time for the five robbers to be helped.” Three of them walked to the cashier closest to the entrance while one remained standing at a closed cashier cubicle. In a matter of seconds one of the robbers jumped over the counter and started talking to the post office staff. “I initially thought he may be working there, but then I saw him take out his pistol. I remember that one of them stood at the entrance and told us to get on the floor. Amidst all this confusion the robber behind the cashier told us to get up.”
TOPS: Die Paarl is ’n streeksfinalis vir Kwêla se Dorp van die Jaar­ kompetisie. Die wenner vir 2013 se Dorp van die Jaar sal R1 miljoen in bemarkingswaarde van kyk­ NET wen en kykNET hou ’n groot makietie in die wendorp. Die gemeenskap kon tot 30 April smse stuur om vir hul dorp te stem. Die wenner word op 29 Mei aangekondig. Die dorpe teen wie die Paarl meeding in hierdie eerste ronde is Paternoster en Wildernis!
Vrae rondom moord steeds onopgelos Inwoners van die Paarl is steeds aan die gis oor die raaiselagtige dood van die voormalige polisielegende Jannie Dreyer (55). Dreyer se lyk is twee weke gelede, op 17 April, in sy huis in Groenvlei, Paarl, ontdek. Hy was ’n polisieman vir byna 30 jaar en het alleen gewoon. Die polisie is steeds op soek na verdagtes en ’n verdagte maroen Toyota Corolla Avante. Die motor het ’n swart kol op die bestuurder se deur en ’n Wellingtonregistrasienommer. Indien enigiemand nuwe inligting of leidrade het, bel kapt. Louise du Plessis by 082 850 9614.
According to Lesch everything changed from normal to chaotic in a matter of seconds. “The robbers demanded that the staff open the safe and all the tills. While this was going on, customers were still walking into the post office without realising something was wrong. I tried to show them with my eyes that they should leave, but they could not understand. “After the robbers The post office was closed for business after the armed robbery. forced the safe open Here confused and disgruntled customers wait outside the entrance. and took cash from the tills they locked one of the staff members away car. “I later heard the car they used was parked at the back of the post office. We then inside the safe.” Things took a turn for the worse when a asked staff of the post office to lock the door and call the police. We waited almost 15 minman and his wife entered the post office. “They walked in, then wanted to leave but utes for the police to arrive, which I find one of the robbers closed the door and told shocking. They are one kilometre from the them to stay. The man then had an altercation post office and one can walk there in less than with one of the robbers after which the robber 15 minutes.” The suspects fled with close to R10 000 and pulled out his pistol and pulled the trigger. Luckily the firearm jammed and no shots cellphones. The police have confirmed the incident and were fired.” This prompted all of the five robbers to have opened a case of business robbery. No leave. They ran out the front door to their get- suspects have been arrested.
Diamonds for Drakenstein! Drakenstein Municipality is shining bright like a diamond. This which was confirmed recently when the municipality walked away with nine Diamond Rating Awards for Excellency during the recent PMR Africa Awards – Boland Region. The PMR Africa Awards, which are conducted annually, are the indicators of the institution’s competencies whereby companies within the Boland region are rated, based on respondents’ perceptions, with a strong focus on evaluating and measuring customer service and customer satisfaction.

Wellington venue refuses gay wedding The Paarl couple, Emile Butler and Gareth O’Brien has lodged a discrimination complaint with the Human Rights Commission (HRC) after the owners of a local wedding venue refused to allow the couple to marry on the farm. They are extremely disappointed at what they describe as the “small-town mindset” of Diemerskraal Estate owners, Daan and Jeanette Morkel, who “couldn’t find it in their hearts” to let the couple have their wedding at the reception venue in Paarl. Jeanette Morkel confirmed to a weekend newspaper that they would not allow the couple to use the premises to get married because she was “not at peace with the situation”. The couple is upset with the decision and although they respect the personal views of the owners, they expect an honest apology for denying them the right to have the wedding at the venue of their choice. Butler argues that everyone has the right to their own opinions, but as soon as you turn it into a business and accept money for a venue, “you should put personal views on the back burner”. Butler has thus filed a discrimination complaint with the HRC, because he felt discriminated against and feels the responsibility to be the voice for couples who are similarly affected. The couple believes people should be made aware that there is still a lot of discrimination against gay people in South Africa. He
has received news from the HRC that a letter has been sent to the owners of Diemerskraal for them to comment on. When Paarl Post contacted the farm owners for their reaction, they were told they had not yet received a letter from the HRC and furthermore refused to comment on the matter. Butler and O’Brien have now started looking at other venues for their wedding, which although too expensive for their budget and not their ideal venues, are proving to be more accommodating. Bellingham Estate in Franschhoek, which was left in a trust for charities by late founders Fredagh and Bernard Podlashuk, has offered to host the venue and donate the proceeds from the event to the SPCA. Butler and O’Brien, who are passionate animal lovers and SPCA supporters, are excited to look at this venue as an alternative. The couple plan to tie the knot sometime next year, depending on the availability of the final venue. Under the Promotion of Equality and Prevention of Unfair Discrimination Act of 2000 individuals, companies, organisations and government departments cannot discriminate against anyone on the grounds of race, gender, disability, sexual orientation or religion/belief.

Aanklaer se oordrom bars ná klap ’n Staatsaanklaer se oordrom het gebars toe sy deur ’n beskuldigde in die Paarl-landdroshof aangerand is omdat hy nie borgtog toegestaan is nie. Rialda Jacobs het vandeesweek vertel dat dit die eerste keer is dat so iets met haar gebeur. “Ek het dit nie verwag nie. Dit het alles so vinnig gebeur. Die landdros se uitspraak was nog aan die gang, so ek het nie eens gesien dat die beskuldigde in my rigting
geloop het nie.” Die beskuldigde Shaun Ramages, wat verlede week in die hof verskyn het op ’n aanklag van gewapende roof, het Jacobs onkant betrap en haar so hard teen die regteroor geslaan dat dit selfs hoorbaar is op ’n bandopname. Die landdros het Ramages op die plek gevonnis tot 12 maande gevangenisstraf vir minagting van die hof. Die saak waarvoor Ramages in die hof verskyn het, is uitgestel.

sloot verwyder nie, maar moes hulle breek deur met springstof uit mekaar te skiet om sodoende plek te maak vir ’n nuwe rioolpyp.” Inwoners het briewe ontvang om hulle oor die “ontploffings” te waarsku. Toe dit plaasgevind het, het die aarde behoorlik onder hul voete gebewe. Die uitgrawing is plek-plek oor die 3 m diep. “Die nuwe rioolpyp vorm deel van die opgradering van die bestaande water- en riooldienste wat op ’n jaarlikse aaneenlopende grondslag regoor die Drakenstein munisipale gebied plaasvind. Hierdie spesifieke pyp was deel van ’n midblok-rioolpyp wat gereeld probleme oplewer. Dit word nou vervang en ook op ’n alternatiewe roete geïnstalleer om probleme op privaat erwe tot ’n minimum te beperk.” * While contractors were digging a trench in General Hertzog Drive in Wellington they came across two huge rocks which they had to blast away to make way for a new sewage pipeline.

When is the madness going to end? Paarlites are still shocked after the events of Sunday morning that led to the death of a family of five, leaving two children orphaned. This tragedy occurred when a head-on collision occurred in Paarl Main Road in the early hours of Sunday morning. An eyewitness, paramedics and police officials all say that it is evident that speed had played a role in the crash. It is alleged that a bakkie overtook another vehicle, careering head-on into a smaller vehicle in which the family of five was travelling. Such incidents are frequently seen as examples of negligence on the part of one of the parties, rather than unavoidable accidents. Negligent and even reckless driving is witnessed on a daily, if not hourly, basis in the area. Drivers ignore traffic signs, speeding is a popular sport on our roads and driving under the influence of alcohol is a disease. It seems too, as if these abuses are readily allowed, as law enforcement on our roads, especially after hours, is limited. How many more must die before there is a concerted effort to address lawlessness on our roads?
Vyftig jaar gelede was dit lekkerder Ons matriekklas van Hoër Meisieskool Bloemhof, Stellenbosch het onlangs ons 50 jaar-reünie gehad. Ek vermoed dat jonger lesers sal dink daar sou slegs ’n paar oorlewendes wees; desnoods op krukke of met kieries, swaksiende, hardhorend en sonder ’n volledige gebit, want ons tik 70 op die skouer en enige mens bo 60 is verskriklik oud vir mense onder 50. Verrassing: almal het op eie stoom daar aangekom en nié in vuurhoutjiedosies nie. Niemand met ’n merkbare fisiese disfunksie nie. Ons het soos goeie wyn verouder. Ek moet bieg daar was twee met oorfoontjies – ek (die oudste in die klas) en Miniature (die jongste). ’n Onderwyseres het ons met onverbloemde trots deur die koshuis en skool geneem. ’n Gemoderniseerde instituut; lokaal op lokaal. Slegs twee klaskamers was effe bekend soos in die toenmalige splinternuwe skoolgebou van 1960. Indrukwekkend. Ultramodern. Binnenshuisversiering op sy beste in portale, gange en die personeelkamer. Elke moontlike moderne hulpmiddel en die beste moontlike leermateriaal en wat ook al benodig word om die dogters dié beste vakopleiding en voorbereiding vir hul toekoms te gee. Ek wonder of hulle besef hoe bevoorreg hulle is. Ontstellend vir ons was die maatreëls vir beveiliging van die personeel en meisies asook van die historiese meublement, die kunsversameling, ensovoorts. Beginnende op die skoolgronde met slegs een in- en uitgang en veiligheidswagte en monitors opgestel om toe te sien dat geen ongemagtigde persone die skoolterrein betree nie en dat geen leerling die skoolterrein gedurende skoolure verlaat sonder kennisname nie. Ons was dit eens dat dit 50 jaar gelede baie lekkerder daar was ten spyte van al die luukses wat ons gemis het. Engeltjies was ons nie, maar tienermeisies met die gewone nukke eie aan daardie ouderdom. Ons het ook nie aldag geleer soos dit hoort
nie, die onderwyseresse bespreek en skool probeer jippo. Overgesetsynde . . . normale kinders. Nie almal uit voorkeur-ouerhuise en ideale omstandighede nie, maar ons het mekaar en ons meerderes respekteer. Daar was ’n hiërargie in die koshuis- en skool opset wat sonder teëstribbeling aanvaar is. Ja, natuurlik het ons gespot met argaïese reëls soos die meet van die skoolrompe se lengte en die vests wat ons moes dra sodat ons onderklere nie deurskyn en ons sodoende die seuns – Paul Rosers met wie ons in elk geval nie gedurende skooltyd kon kontak maak nie – in die versoeking sal lei nie. Kort hare in ’n aanvaarbare styl en lang hare óf twee vlegsels óf pony tail met, verpligtend, donkerblou linte. Patent leather shoes was verbode . . . ons onderklere sou daarin weerkaats en dan kon die seuns onder ons rokke in sien. Dit, eenmaal per jaar met ’n gesamentlike funksie. Langbroeke was taboe. Sonde. Punt. Ek was, soos ander ver kinders, slegs vir standerd 9 en 10 daar. Sommige dogters uit die destydse Suidwes, asook uit Noord- en SuidRhodesië was vanaf standerd 6 reeds leerlinge daar en het dikwels net twee maal per jaar huis toe gegaan. Diesulkes by die reünie was dit eens dat hulle geen permanente sielkundige letsels opgedoen het as gevolg van die “wrede praktyk deur ongevoelige ouers” nie. Vuil taal is nie gebesig deur óf leerlinge óf personeellede nie. Tienerswangerskappe, dwelmverslawing (purple hearts en dagga was beskikbaar) en drankmisbruik was daar nie. Iets is dus reg gedoen deur ons ouers, onderwyseresse en samelewing. Of is ons net soveel slimmer en ordentliker gebore? Opvallend was die opregte blydskap in die weersiens en die lewensvreugde van almal met die ondertoon van die Groot Vrede. Dít ten spyte van die hartseer, teleurstelling, verliese en smarte wat niemand gespaar gebly het die afgelope 50 jaar nie. Ek dink nie ons gaan nog 50 haal nie, maar tien jaar nog maklik!
Sassa is senior burgers ’n antwoord verskuldig oor geen diens Ek dink genoeg is genoeg. Ek verwys na die wyse waarop senior burgers behandel word om hulle pensioene te kry. Op 3 April het ek na Checkers Paarl toe gegaan om pensioen te trek. Die dame by die kassier het twee keer gekyk en daar was geen geld inbetaal nie. Sy het my meegedeel dat daar baie mense omgedraai het wat ook nie geld gekry het nie. Ek is na Sassa se kantoor toe om navraag te doen waarom ons pensioen nie inbetaal is nie. Die kantoor se wag-area was soos ’n sirkus soos mense ontsteld was. By die navraetoonbank het die dame vir my gesê hulle skryf nie meer mense in nie. Dit was 11:20. Ek is na die eerste vloer om die bestuurder te gaan spreek. ’n Dame het my te woord gestaan en gesê hy is nie op kantoor nie. Toe ek vra wie sy assistent is, het sy na ’n sekere mnr. Fredericks verwys, ’n onbedagsame en onprofessionele man. Hy het geweier om my te woord te staan en my sy kantoor se deur gewys. Ek wil hom aanhaal: “Ek praat met niemand wat by my kantoor instap sonder begeleiding van iemand wat hom of
haar na my kantoor toe bring nie.” Ek is na die navraetoonbank op die grondvloer en daar het ’n amptenaar my weer na mnr. Fredericks se kantoor geneem. Hy het nog steeds geweier om met my te praat en nie toegelaat dat ek in sy kantoor gaan nie. Die optrede kom langpad aan by die Paarl Sassa-kantore. Met registrasie was daar klomp verskonings. Jy kan 06:00 by die kantoordeure kom wag, jy loop 16:00 daar uit, dan is jy steeds nie gehelp nie. Met registrasie was ek by vyf verskillende registrasiepunte en steeds nie gehelp nie. Daar is hordes verskonings gebruik. Die werkers is onbevoeg om die werk te doen en onprofessioneel
om senior burgers te help. Dit verbaas my nie as die tweede in bevel so optree nie, wat verwag jy dan van die res?! Ek is die volgende dag 16:15 na die Hugenote-gemeenskapsaal. Daar het ek met amptenare gepraat wat die geld uitbetaal het. Hulle het my na Sassa terugverwys. Sassa-hoofkantooramptenare het opgedaag. Ek het met mnr. Paulse gepraat; hy het vir my gesê hulle is daar om ondersoek in te stel. Die jong man het professioneel en bedagsaam opgetree. Daar het ander mense ook gesit wat nie hulle geld ontvang het nie. Ander het die vorige maand ook nie ontvang nie, terwyl daar belowe is dat ek met die reuse-Sassakaart geen probleem sou hê nie. Al wat ons vra is dat ons senior burgers met respek en waardigheid behandel word.

Teen druktyd het Sassa nog nie geantwoord op vrae wat hieroor aan hulle gerig is nie. Red.
Paarl­Oos se speurders se houding stel teleur Op 30 Maart 2013 het ek my Blackberry-selfoon as gesteel aangemeld by Paarl-Oos-polisiestasie. Ek het die blacklist-nommer en alle dokumentasie verskaf en die verdagte se naam, van en adres. Die sersant by wie ek die verklaring afgelê het, het vir my gesê dat die speurder my binne 24 uur sal kom sien voordat hulle die verdagte in hegtenis kan neem. Op 2 April is ek weer terug na die polisiestasie, drie dae ná die saak aangemeld is en steeds was daar nie ’n speurder by my nie. By verdere navraag moes ek verneem dat ’n sekere speurder wel by my was (waarvan ek geen kennis dra nie) en hy het in my verklaring geskryf dat hy
wel ’n onderhoud met my gevoer het, wat blatante leuens is. Uiteindelik sien ek toe ’n speurder wat my belowe dat iemand my sal kom sien, maar toe ek hom op 6 April kontak sê hy die verdagte is in aanhouding en sal 8 April 2013 voor die hof verskyn. Tot op hede het ek nog geen terugvoer van Paarl-Oos-polisie se speurtak gekry nie. Geen speurder was by my nie en dit is meer as drie weke gelede wat ek die saak aangemeld het. Hoekom moes die speurder lieg in my verklaring en sê dat hy ’n onderhoud met my gevoer het? Is dit die rede hoekom baie sake tot in doodloopstraat lei? Want sommige ondersoekbeamptes is te lui
Boland Rugby­president reageer Die Boland Rugby Unie bly steeds verbind tot die ontwikkeling van klubspelers (“Wat gaan aan met Boland Rugby dat hy so agteruit boer?”, 25 April). Sewe van 2011 se senior spelers het die unie verlaat as gevolg van beter aanbiedinge. Boland het ’n driejaarplan (tot 2015) en is steeds verbind tot die uitvoering daarvan. Boland gee die geleentheid vir klubspelers en sal volhou daarmee, veral tydens die Vodacomkompetisie (wat ’n kompetisie is om geleenthede te bied aan jong spelers). Die bestuur en direksie beplan nie dat die span moet verloor nie, maar aanvaar nederlae en
bou sukses op leemtes. Die saak gaan nie oor familieverbintenisse nie – familie wat betrokke is by rugby is ’n wêreldtendens. Kontraktering van spelers by ’n klein unie soos Boland bly ’n groot uitdaging, aangesien “groter” unies met ’n tjekboek rondloop en talentvolle spelers met groot kontrakte “oorkoop”. Dit duur gewoonlik twee tot drie jaar voor ’n wenspan gebou word. Die wenspan van 2011 was ook ’n bouproses, aangesien die span eers van 2009 saam geoefen het.
FRANCOIS DAVIDS PRESIDENT, BOLAND RUGBY UNIE
om hulle werk te doen? Dit help nie mens kontak die stasie nie, want jy word net van bakboord na stuurboord gestuur sonder enige sukses. Ek wil graag weet wat gebeur nou? Moet ek maar koebaai vir my foon sê, nadat ek dit met my hardverdiende loon gekoop het? Nog ’n rede hoekom die misdaadsyfer net sal toeneem, want misdadigers kan steel dan word sake uitgegooi as gevolg van swak speurwerk en die klaer trek maar net aan die kortste ent?
ERG TELEURGESTELD PAARL­OOS
Paarl-Oos-polisie het gesê dat die aantygings ondersoek sal word.

Kan parate beamptes nie ook rommelstrooiers beboet nie? Op Saterdag 27 April het ek weereens gesien hoe ’n voertuig vol bourommel die oop gebied langs die begraafplaas binne ry. Toe ek gaan kyk waar die voertuig heengaan, kry ek die bestuurder geklee in ’n Departement Bosbou T-hemp en sy handlanger besig om bourommel af te laai. Volgens die bestuurder is die rommel ene Brandon wat by die munisipaliteit werk se afval. Hy het geweier om enige verdere inligting in verband met Brandon te verskaf. Volgens hom sou ’n amptenaar by die stortingsterrein aan hom sê dat daar nie plek is vir bourommel nie en dat hulle die rommel maar op enige plek langs die pad kan afgooi.
Later die middag het ek self vullis gaan aflaai by die stortingsterrein en navrae gerig oor bourommel. Ek is deur ’n werker verseker dat daar wel geriewe beskikbaar is daarvoor. Op pad terug huistoe staan ek agter ’n voertuig waarvan die een insittende ewe ongeërg haar papiere by die motorvenster uitgooi. Haar antwoord op my konfrontasie: “Ander mense word betaal om die vullis op te tel.” Nou wonder ek: Die Paarlse-middedorp krioel van parate beamptes wat net te gretig is om seker te maak dat ek wel my R2 of R3 per halfuur betaal vir parkering. Is daar ’n skrale moontlikheid dat hulle en die munisipale-polisie sommer op die uitkyk
kan wees vir rommelstrooiers en sulkes dan ’n spotfine gee. Sodoende kan ons die geld inkry om mense te betaal wat die gemors weer moet skoonmaak. Dalk help dit net ’n klein bietjie om ons dorp skoner te hou.
Verkeersbeamptes tree net teen sommiges op Op die oggend van 23 April het ek versuim om my volle stop uit te voer by ’n stopstraat. ’n Verkeersbeampte het my gestop en ’n boete van R500 aan my uitgereik. Ek het bevestig dat ek nie my volle stop uitgeoefen het nie en verduidelik dat ek en my vrou laat was vir ’n belangrike afspraak. ’n Paar minute later let ek op hoe sowat ses motors oor dié stopstraat ry sonder om te stop. Ek vra die verkeersbeampte hoekom hierdie motoriste nie afgetrek word nie. Hy sê dat hulle drie verkeersbeamptes nie nou daaraan aan-
dag kan gee nie, omdat hulle klaar besig is om aan die huidige motoriste aandag te gee wat hulle afgetrek het. Ek vra toe hoekom hulle dan nie nog ’n beampte kry om dit te kontroleer nie. Die beampte het toe gesê dat ek nie moet “tegnies” raak nie. Ek het vir hom gesê dat dit onregverdig is, want wat geld vir die een geld ook vir die ander. Ek voel dit is onregverdig en baie onprofessioneel van die beampte om sy diskresie op so ’n manier te gebruik. Die aangeleentheid is net van een kant af gekyk en ek voel dat my mening geen invloed gehad het op die
voorval nie. Dit gee ’n mens ook die gevoel dat net sommige motoriste geteiken word, maar waar vriende en familie aangaan word dit mis gekyk. Dit skep ’n baie swak beeld van die Drakenstein-verkeersafdeling en dit skep ook die illusie dat die verkeersafdeling net daar is om sekere te dien. Baie van dié beamptes vergeet hulle is daar om heel eerste ’n diens aan die gemeenskap te lewer. Maar hulle verkies om snaakse kommentaar te lewer en dat hul attitude voor die belange van die publiek kom.
JOHAN V.D. WESTHUIZEN PAARL
Chapter 2 of the Constitution, under Section 27, gives every South African the right to sufficient water. I suspect that those of us who are fortunate enough to have sufficient access don’t always realise exactly how difficult life can be without it. Imagine not being able to wash your body, your clothes, your food or cutlery. This has serious health and other implications. You become more vulnerable to diseases. It becomes difficult to find employment when you and your clothes are dirty. You inevitably become trapped in a spiral of poverty. Access to water is not the only contributing factor, and access to sufficient food, education as well as opportunities brought about by economic growth are also major contributors to alleviating poverty. (Food security and industrial as well as agricultural development are naturally also closely tied to access to sufficient water.) Nevertheless it has occurred to me that where water is concerned the working and middle classes are probably more vulnerable than they realise. South Africa is a water-scarce country. However,
as much as 37% of our water is lost through leaks. To worsen matters by 2015, 80% of the country’s water resources will apparently be so badly polluted that they could not be made fit for consumption again. In other words the constitutional right to sufficient water may very well be denied even more people. While the protection of citizens’ constitutional rights is mainly the responsibility of government, it did however, occur to me that at least to some extent the protection of the rights it defines depend on how we as South African citizens act. So, what am I driving at? You and I can help address looming water shortages by doing a couple of simple things – don’t pollute, report polluters, deal with water leaks at your home, report water leaks in areas where municipalities are responsible and manage your own water consumption. So, it’s quite simple, by making a couple of changes you and I can ensure that more South Africans (including ourselves) have access to safer water for longer.

Legendary journalist passes away Well-known veteran Paarl journalist, Reg Weiss (83) passed away on Friday evening 26 April. He had been struggling with a respiratory illness for some time and was hospitalised for gastro-intestinal complications last week.
) Hier volg die sektornommers vir Klapmuts: Sektor: 1 082 302 8140 en Sektor: 2 082 443 9373. Mbekweni se sektornommers is: Sektor: 1 082 411 3541; Sektor: 2 082 411 3569 en Sektor 3: i082 379 8483. ) On Saturday 28 April, Paarl East police responded to a murder that had taken place in Chicago. On arrival they found the body of Barend Swarts (40) from Springbok street. Swarts had stab wounds to his stomach. The police identified three possible suspects, Bradly Lackay (20), Carlton Williams (19) and Dylan Abrahams (19). They appeared in court this week. ) On Sunday morning, at about 07:15, Ms Jensel was waiting for a taxi to work in Jan Van Riebeeck road near Mbekweni, when an unknown man grabbed her from behind, demanding her belongings. She bravely fought back, but another suspect drew a firearm and hit her over the head. They fled with her cellphone and handbag. The suspects are still at large. Anyone with the information can contact Mbekweni detectives at 021 868 9926.
Weiss was active in journalism for more than 63 Reg Weiss. years, mainly with agricultural publications such as Farmer’s Weekly. As a young man, he joined the navy and trained on the General Botha in Simonstown for a career as a deck officer. He was the first cadet-officer to sign on with SAF Marine’s first ship, STS Constantia, sailing between South Africa, the West Indies and the United States. He cut his teeth in journalism in the late 1950s with Farmer’s Weekly, where he was trained as a reporter before joining The Friend, South Africa’s first daily newspaper north of the Orange River. He was editor (Western Cape) successively of three publications – the Farmers’ Weekly, Landbouweekblad and The Dairy Mail. He also worked for the SA Press Association and the Cape Argus, at the same time doing service in the Parliamentary press gallery.
He represented Sapa and Reuters at the independence celebrations of Ghana, the first colony in Africa to achieve this distinction. In the 1950s, amongst others, he covered the treason trial in Johannesburg and the historic congresses of the ANC before it was banned. Memorable assignments included interviews with General Smuts, Dr Malan, Dr Moroka, Chief Albert Luthuli, Walter Sisulu, JG Strydom, Hendrik Verwoerd and PW Botha. He also remembered being introduced to a youthful Nelson Mandela. Frustrated by negative politics he returned to agricultural journalism which he saw as a positive force in the world. Visits to the United States, the United Kingdom, Spain, Portugal, France, Germany, Norway, Denmark, Finland, Ireland, Australia, Israel, Ghana and the West Indies only reinforced his belief that peace was best served by “putting good wholesome milk into babies”. He represented South African journalists at successive world congresses of the IFAJ and fought hard to secure the 10th World Congress for South Africa in 2004. It was the first in Africa and hosted some 100 delegates from 26 coun-
tries. From 1996 – 2005, he was Vice-President (Africa) of the International Federation of Agricultural Journalists and at the time of his death he was an Honorary Life President of the SA Agricultural Writers. He was a past chairman of the Paarl Ratepayers’ Association, the Simon van der Stel Foundation and the Paarl SPCA. He was secretary of the Drakenstein Heemkring and ratepayer representative on the Drakenstein aesthetics advisory committee. He served for two successive five-year terms on the Cape Diocesan Council and was for some 40 years a lay minister at Holy Trinity Anglican Church in Paarl, also representing the parish at various synods and the elective assemblies of five Archbishops, including that of Emeritus Archbishop Tutu. Weiss was public relations manager of the old Deciduous Fruit Board in the 1970s and served on the board of the National Museum, Bloemfontein, in the 1950s. Up until his death, he was still a regular columnist for the Paarl Post and The Dairy Mail, edited newsletters for organised agriculture in the Western Cape for many years and was also a correspondent for Die Boer and several commodity journals. He is survived by his wife Yvonne, three daughters, Beverley Moll, Kate Webster and Andrea Weiss. His funeral service will take place on Friday 3 May, at 15:00 at the Holy Trinity Anglican Church, Paarl.
Police make multiple arrests Various suspected criminals were recently caught red-handed by Paarl police. While patrolling in the early hours of last Thursday morning, two police officers saw a man walking in Denneburg carrying a gas cylinder. Upon further investigation the police discovered that the man had stolen the cylinder and he was subsequently arrested. Good community policing was also central to two arrests made over the past weekend. In both cases alert neighbours reacted to suspicious activity which then led to the two successful arrests. In the first case a resident of De Zoete Inval saw two strangers in his neighbour’s yard. It
was established that they had stolen a trampoline. They were later apprehended and arrested while trying to escape across the railway line. Another attentive neighbour saw a suspicious-looking vehicle parked outside his neighbour’s house. He then saw someone pushing his neighbour’s trailer out the driveway. The police were informed and one suspect was arrested. The police would like to thank the public for assisting them in curbing crime. “This is exactly what community policing entails – the community being the eyes and ears of the police,” said police spokesperson Capt. Louise du Plessis.

Mother’sDay 2 Mei, 2013
Breakfast in bed, kisses for free LISE BEYERS Mothers are on duty 24 hours a day, seven days a week – cooking, cleaning, caring and seeing to her family’s every need. So make Mom feel really special this Mother’s Day by surprising her with a delicious breakfast in bed. How about trying a breakfast pita. Preheat the oven to 200˚C. Slice open a pita bread and toast slightly in the oven. Place a few cherry tomatoes in a pan and fry them gently. When they are almost cooked, not too soft, fry an egg in the same pan. Cook some spinach, or heat up prepared frozen spinach. Spoon this evenly over the pita halves, then fresh basil leaves, the tomatoes, and finally the egg. Then you can also try your hand at egg and bacon potato cakes. Boil one potato in its skin and leave to cool. Peel the potato and mash with a knob of butter, a little salt and pepper, and some chopped chives. Shape it into a patty and refrigerate for half an hour. Now the cake is ready to fry in a warm pan with a bit of butter and olive oil. Once the cake is golden brown, remove from pan and keep warm. All that needs to be done now is to fry a couple of rashers of bacon, as well as an egg. If you know how to poach an egg,
do this instead. Place the hot potato cake on a plate, followed by a couple of bacon rashers and top with the egg on top. And if you are not a keen cook, you can just prepare her the perfect boiled egg with a couple of toast soldiers. The perfect boiled egg is not a matter of simply putting an egg into a pot of boiling water for ten minutes. First fill a small saucepan with enough water to cover the eggs. Turn on the heat, and when the water starts to simmer, not boil, quickly but gently lower the eggs into the water, one at a time using a tablespoon. If you are going to be hard handed here, the eggs may crack. Time the eggs for exactly one minute and remove the saucepan from the heat. Leave for another six minutes and you will have a soft, fairly liquid yolk and a white that is just set, but still quite wobbly. Seven minutes will produce a firmer egg, but still fairly soft. And the longer the egg is left in the hot water, the harder it will get. But nobody really wants a rock hard blue egg. Toast a slice of bread, spread with butter, and cut into slices of about 2 cm. And at the end of the day, all mom will really ask for is a hug and to know that you really care. But it will make her smile if you do go to a bit of trouble and make her feel special. Just remember to clean the kitchen as well – otherwise your popularity might soon start to fade.
Even the simplest breakfast will warm your mother’s heart on Mother’s Day.
SPECIAL DAY: Mothers Day is around the corner and many moms are hoping to get spoilt on that day. However, most mothers will also say that the best thing about being a mother is her little sweethearts, and Dele­ nia Jaeggi­Wright is no exception. Here she is with her two boys, Liam en Luca.
Moedersdag-idees Moedersdag is die een dag in die jaar wat elke kind, maak nie saak of hy/sy nie meer ’n “kind” is nie, die ma wat aan hom of haar lewe geskenk het, spesiaal móét laat voel. Elke ma waardeer ’n geskenk wat spesiaal vir haar uitgekies, of selfs beter, gemaak is. Hier is ’n paar oulike idees vir Moedersdaggeskenke: .’n Boks met 52 van jou gunsteling-herinneringe van jou ma, een vir elke week van die volgende jaar. .’n Versameling van jul gunsteling-familieresepte deur die generasies heen, en probeer foto’s bysit. .As jy al studeer, ’n lys van al die dinge wat jy wens jy voor dankie gesê het voordat jy die huis verlaat het. .’n Toe-en-nou-foto van jou en jou ma, mooi geraam met ’n boodskap by. .’n Haar-afspraak, nael-afspraak, spa-dag of sommer net ’n lekker voet-massering by die
huis. .Haar kinders of kleinkinders se kuns in ’n raam. .Laat jou ma slaap vir so lank as wat sy wil en vat die ontbyt in die bed eers wanneer sy lekker uitgerus is . . . en maak skoon die kombuis. .Liefdesbriefies van die kinders of kleinkinders wat weggesteek is in onverwagse plekke. Dit is vreeslik lekker om ’n maand ná Moedersdag nog briefies te ontdek. .Pak die skottelgoedwasser uit. .Pluk vir haar vars blomme (al is dit uit haar eie tuin). Meeste van ons sê nie gereeld genoeg vir ons ma’s hoe lief ons hulle het en hoe dankbaar ons is vir alles wat hulle vir ons opoffer en doen nie. Gebruik hierdie een dag om op te maak daarvoor deur die dag vir haar spesiaal te maak. Eintlik kan élke dag Moedersdag wees, al wat dit verg is ’n blommetjie, drukkie of ’n eenvoudige dankie.
Vanwaar kom Moedersdag?

DIE meeste van ons aanvaar dit as vanselfsprekend – Meimaand is Moedersdag-maand. Maar vanwaar? Dit is nie ’n bemarkingsghoeroe wat met ’n blinknuwe idee wakker geword het nie. Allermins. Die eerste huldeblyk aan moeders dateer sover terug met die Grieke se lentefees wat hul opgedra het aan Rhea, die moeder van verskeie Griekse gode en die offerande wat die antieke Romeine aan Cybele, die moeder van baie gode, gedoen het.Maar vir die hier en nou bly ons vasklou aan die Amerikaner Anna Jarvis se veldtog. Sy het in 1905 ’n veldtog begin om haar ma se werk te herdenk. Volgens die legende het haar ma gehoop dat iemand eendag aan die moeders moet dink. In 1914 is Anna se werk beloon en het Woodrow Wilson, voormalige Amerikaanse president, Moedersdag as ’n nasionale vakansiedag verklaar. Maar haar bedoeling om die dag met ’n kerkdiens en briewe aan moeders te herdenk, was van korte duur want toe stap Mamon by die voordeur in. Dit is toe dat die bemarkingsghoeroes opstaan. Allerweë word die tweede Sondag van Mei beskou as een van die gewildste dae om uit te eet. Die Amerikaners voorspel dat daar volgende Sondag in die VSA byna 200 miljoen kaartjies aan ma’s gestuur gaan word.
WARM HARTE: Die VLV­Sirkel Paarl het 27 hand­ gebreide en gehe­ kelde kniekomber­ se aan inwoners van Rusoord­tehuis vir bejaardes ge­ skenk.

STASIE­ROLBAL: Die Wellington­rolbalklub het hul bydrae gelewer tot die 150­jarige bestaansjaarvieringe van die Wellington­ spoorwegstasie. Rolbalspelers uit die “verre verlede” het vroegoggend per trein aange­ kom om die dag saam met die Wellington­ rolbalspelers te geniet. Die gaste is op die stasie verwelkom deur die president van Wellington­rolbal, Pieter Myburg. Gerhard Koorts het met sy 1948­Chevrolet die gaste na die rolbalklub vervoer waar spelers van Wellington en die Paarl hulle verwelkom het. Ná die rolbalspel het almal ’n tradisionele middagete geniet. Olivia le Cordeur, kurator van die Wellington museum, het ’n interes­ sante praatjie oor die geskiedenis van Wel­ lington en sy spoorwegstasie gelewer. VEILING:By­ kans R7 000 is ingesamel vir die Paarl dierebesker­ mingsvereni­ ging, tydens ’n veiling van kunswerke van plaaslike kunstenaars by Primi Piatti. Die poskaart­ grootte kunswerke wat opgeveil is, is geskep deur Patsy Copeland, Riana de Klerk, Yogi Frater, Sonja Rust, Germien Pauw en kunson­ derwyser Trevor Cleevely van Wellington.

ATTACK: The junior teams of Blues (Lower Paarl) and Vineyards met each other on Saturday in the curtain raiser for the senior teams. Here Shakiel Adams gets ready to show his troops the way. Blues won 8­5. PHOTO: ERNEST KILOWAN
Villagers verniel Bloues Villagers Newton het Saterdag op hul tuisveld die Bloues aan flarde gespeel. Villagers het die swaarder span van Malmesbury 27-5 geklop. Die besoekers se agttal was baie groter en sterker as die tuisspan, maar het swaar geleef in die skrums en lynstane. Pikkie Didloft het talle omgekeerde besit vir Villagers verseker. Die tempo waarteen Villagers se agterspelers gespeel het, was ook gans te vinnig vir die besoekers. Puntemakers vir die Villagers was Maxwell Solomons (twee drieë, een strafskop en twee doelskoppe), Aiden Cupido (een drie), Anthony Pietersen (een drie). Villagers se tweede span wen 37-10. Saterdag speel Newton weg teen United Stones. Vervoer vertrek 13:00 van die Newton-veld.
Vineyards beat Lower Blues At a jam-packed Daljosafat Stadium on Saturday, log leaders Vineyards raced to a 20-0 lead in the first half, then withstood a ferocious counter-attack from Lower Paarl Blues to record a 29-28 victory in their top-of-the-log clash in the Paarl region competition. Vineyards struggled in their previous game and narrowly beat Rangers last week after some poor play, but the victory against second-placed Blues took the men in maroon to 18 points and put them back in charge of the Paarl region. Vineyards looked like they would run away with the game after a high-tempo start. They were leading 20-0 within only 20 minutes with tries by scrumhalf Alvin Farmer, hooker Mario Kok and fullback Robin Andrews. Andrews’s try was especially memorable as it came after a pow-
erful run from wing Sharief Mack, who ran over and around four Blues players. With Blues on attack, flank Sulaimaan Antar managed a turnover on the Vineyards try-line, Mack received the ball and ran 50 metres before finding Andrews, who scooped up the kick ahead and sprinted more than 40 metres for his try. Dayne Petersen added 5 points with the boot to give Vineyards a comfortable lead. Vineyards lost forward Imirie Lategan who was sin- binned in the last 10 minutes of the first half and Lower Paarl managed to score and convert going into the break trailing 7-23. A controversial decision by the referee, who red-carded Vineyards lock Conroy Peters within the first five minutes of the second half for a high tackle, meant that Vineyards had to finish the game with 14 men.
Lower Paarl took advantage of this and almost managed a huge comeback leading 28-26 with one minute to go. Blues had tons of scoring opportunities but the 14man Vineyards team defended their try linelike Trojans with impact players Junaid Moerat (hooker), Zaahir Chippendale (flank) and Shukri Moerat (centre) leading from the front in the defensive effort. Just as celebrations in the Blues camp started, Vineyards received a penalty in the dying minutes of the game and flyhalf Randal Geldenhuys slotted a 40 metre penalty to secure a 29-28 victory. Vineyards’s second team, who played the last 10 minutes with two players in the sin bin, managed to score a bonus point victory. Both Vineyards’s first and second teams top their respective logs after round 4.

SAFARI MARATHON: A record 12 000 runners took part in yesterday’s Safari Half Marathon in Wellington. Approximately 5 500 runners took part in the 21 km half marathon event. An ocean of people set off at 07:10. The winners in the women’s race were first Bulelwa Fimae (01:22), second Asiphi Fikabalanjana (01:23) and third Bernice van Zyl (01:26). In the men’s category the winners were first Lloyd Bosman (1:06), second Norman Dlomo (01:07) and third Andries Pongwana (01:07). PHOTO: LISE BEYERS
Lintnaar, who is physically disabled, recently won the time-trial event when he competed in the tricycle class at the 2013 South African Paracycling National Championships, held in Oudtshoorn on 19 and 20 April. He now proudly wears the South African National Champion jersey. Making this a remarkable performance, is the fact that in December 2012 he was involved in a serious accident whilst training for the National Championships, which left him both injured and without a tricycle to continue his training. Thanks to the generosity and support of many institutions and individuals, in particular his coach An-
gi Stanford, he was able to overcome what seemed to be an insurmountable barrier to achieve the success he strives for in his cycling career. Lintnaar now has his sights set on claiming a place in the South African paracycling team that will be announced shortly to compete in the UCI World Cup events in Italy and Spain this year. His performance in the national championships certainly places him in a very good position to be selected for the team. To enable him to actualise his potential as a world-class cyclist, Lintnaar urgently needs financial support. He would be very glad to engage with sponsors who can assist him with cycling equipment and other means to compete in local and international cycling events. Interested sponsors can contact his coach, Angi Stanford on 084 515 2729.
