5 OKTAWE, 61 NOTE... KOMPLEKSE UITDAGING NEEM DRIE JAAR
Man bou marimba tuis NIELEN DE KLERK @nielendk
arty mense beskou visvang as die perfekte ding om mee te ontspan; ander versamel muntstukke as ’n stokperd-
jie. Dirk Streicher (61) van Eversdal is nie een van daardie mense nie. Die perfekte uitdaging vir hom is om ’n konsertmarimba te bou – met al die nodige komplekse wiskundige uitdagings wat daarmee gepaardgaan. En dit is sonder dat hy self enige instru-
mente bespeel. Dirk, wat as ’n siviele ingenieur opgelei is, is gewoond aan ’n lewe met ’n mengelmoes van uitdagings en belangstellings. Hy is onder meer betrokke by eiendomsontwikkeling, brandnavorsing by die Universiteit Stellenbosch en die verkoop van kompressors. Jare lank het hy ook spesialisskrynwerkery beoefen. Dit was daarom nie juis vir sy naastes ’n groot verrassing toe hy aankondig hy wil ’n konsertmarimba bou nie. Hy het hoeka eintlik kort tevore ’n kontrabas klaar gebou. “My suster (die kunsjoernalis Elretha
Britz) is in die musiekbedryf,” vertel hy. Britz se dogter, Zanelle, is lid van die Kaapse Filharmoniese Orkes, waar sy kontrabas speel. Sowat vier jaar gelede het hy binne ’n jaar vir haar ’n kontrabas gebou. Toe sy suster met hom praat oor die perkussielesse wat sy neem, het sy genoem ’n kennis is op soek na ’n konsertmarimba. Dit sou maklik wees, het Dirk gereken, en besluit om sommer self een te bou. Dit was toe meer van ’n uitdaging as wat hy ooit kon raai en dié instrument het hom ’n volle drie jaar besig gehou. In teenstelling met ’n kontrabas was daar
nie regtig volop hulpmiddels om ’n konsertmarimba in ’n Suid-Afrikaanse omgewing te bou nie. En ’n konsertmarimba is baie meer kompleks as ’n gewone marimba. Dit het onder meer vyf oktawe en 61 note. Dirk moes ’n klomp verskillende faktore in berekening hou toe hy die marimba gebou het – van die tipe hout wat beskikbaar is, tot hoe die note gesny moet word sodat dit die vorm en kurwe het om die regte noot te speel. Boonop het die resonator (boks) ’n groot invloed op die klank. V Na bladsy 2

Twee vas oor inbraak ESMÉ ERASMUS @erasmusesme Twee vermeende inbrekers is Donderdag 9 Januarie danksy die oplettendheid van Durbanville-polisielede aangekeer – selfs nog voor die inbraak ontdek is. Volgens lt.kol. Theo Fisher, waarnemende bevelvoerder van die Durbanville-polisiekantoor, was ao. Ernst Viljoen en sers. Sean Fox op Donderdag 9 Januarie besig met patrolliediens toe hulle twee verdagte mans uit Sentinelweg in Durbanville Hills in Durbanvillerylaan sien stap het. Hulle het die mans deursoek en ’n skootrekenaar, ’n duur verkyker en ’n bottel wyn in hul besit gevind. “Hulle kon nie rekenskap gee van waar hulle die artikels gekry het nie. Met verdere ondersoek is die eienaar van die goedere opgespoor; hy was baie verbaas toe hy deur Viljoen oor sy eiendom uitgevra is,” het Fisher gesê. “Daar is toe vasgestel dat daar by sy huis in Cederbergstraat in Durbanville Hills ingebreek is. Hy was baie ingenome dat die polisie die verdagtes gevang het en hy sy eiendom teruggekry het nog voordat hy geweet het daar is by sy huis ingebreek,” het hy gesê. Die verdagtes het reeds in die Bellville-landdroshof op aanklagte van huisbraak en besit van gesteelde eiendom verskyn.

VAN BLADSY 1 Sy seun, Simon (wat ook ’n ingenieur is en in toegepaste wiskunde spesialiseer), het selfs ingespring om ’n rekenaarprogram te skryf wat die proses vergemaklik. Dirk het ’n spesiale apparaat gekoop wat die klank opneem en toe met behulp van Simon se program die note se toonhoogtes bepaal en aangepas. In Desember verlede jaar het Dirk die marimba-speler Dylan Tabisher genooi
om die instrument te beproef, juis omdat hy nie self kan speel nie. Dirk se dogter, Petro Wagner, sê dit was ’n ongelooflike ervaring om te sien hoe iemand die instrument gebruik en te hoor hoe mooi dit klink. Dirk sê hierdie is ’n “eksperimentele marimba” en wil graag weer een bou, veral met al die kennis wat hy intussen opgedoen het.
Die proses was baie kompleks en Dirk se seun, Simon, het selfs ’n rekenaarprogram geskryf om te help. FOTO’S: NIELEN DE KLERK
Die jare lange proses het hom egter nog nie geïnspireer om self ’n instrument te begin speel nie. “Ek is glad nie musikaal nie,” sê hy. Hy het ’n paar maande lank musiek geneem totdat sy onderwyseres hom betaal het om op te hou, spot hy. Nee, vir Dirk sal die komplekse berekeninge en bouwerk die grootste uitdaging wees.
Dirk het onder meer ’n spesiale mikrofoon gekoop waarmee die klank opgeneem kon word en later getoets is of dit nootvas is.
Buite Ekspo skud vere reg D
ie 19de kykNET Buite Ekspo vind vanjaar op die plaas Môreson langs die N7, net 10 km buite Malmesbury, gedurende die naweek van 14 tot 16 Februarie plaas. Verlede jaar het dié gewilde geleentheid meer as 20 000 besoekers gelok, wat dit die grootste ekspo van sy soort in die Wes-Kaap maak. Die ekspo is hoofsaaklik gemik op buitelewe- en relevante uitstallings en beloof om die nuutste in hierdie veld aan besoekers te bied. Uitstallers bly dan ook die hele naweek op hul uitstalterreine en rig hulself so in dat die publiek eerstehands kan ervaar hoe die produkte funksioneer. Alle uitstalterreine het toegang tot krag, water en badkamergeriewe. Tesame met die uitstallings word ook lekker pretaktiwiteite vir die hele gesin aange-
bied. André de Villiers van Safari 4x4 Roetes bied gratis Amarok 4x4-hindernisritte aan. Dan is daar veldmotorfiets- en vierwielfietsvertonings en -ritte, asook helikopterritte. Maak ook seker om nie die kykNET Buite Ekspo se verjaarsdagjol – aangebied deur Jimmy’s Steakhouse Sauces met kykNETsepiesterre – mis te loop nie. Daar word gedurende die naweek verskeie interessante kompetisies en aktiwiteite aangebied – onder meer ’n kunsmark en splinternuwe Swartland-Wyntuin, wat wyn en eetgoed sal verkoop. Daar is vanjaar selfs meer gekeurde kosverskaffers om aan almal se smaak te voldoen. Daar is ook ’n Castle Light-kroeg en -biertuin en ’n baie gewilde “slush”-tuin om almal se dors te les. Die kykNET Buite Ekspo is nie ’n musiek-
Katryntjie word toe amper uilkos ESMÉ ERASMUS @erasmusesme Katryntjie die kat se laataand boomklimmery en haar eienaars se opgewondenheid oor uile se gehoe-hoe in die buurt het byna een van haar katlewens gekos. Haar eienaar, Annelien Els, vertel dit was verlede Woensdagaand reeds sterk skemer, net na 20:00, toe hulle uile by die huis langs hul huis in die Napa Valley-kompleks in Grysbokstraat in Aurora hoor roep het. “Ons het lanklaas, seker meer as 18 maande laas, uile in ons buurt hoor roep en is almal buitentoe om die uile te gaan bewonder. “Dit was ’n volwasse uil met ’n kuiken. Die uil kom sit toe op ons dak. “Katryntjie het teen die kaal stam van ’n boom in ons tuin opgeklouter en was seker 1,8 meter bokant die grond toe die uil skielik op
haar afgeswiep kom – met sy koue uitgestrek om haar te vang,” sê Els. Dit was vermoedelik ’n gevlekte ooruil. “Katryntjie het afgespring en onder bosse gaan wegkruip. Sy is maar agt maande oud en klein van postuur; sy sou maklik uilkos kon raak.” Volgens ’n artikel op die webblad www.catological.com is dit algemeen dat uile katte vang en doen hulle dit hoofsaaklik omdat hulle die kat as ’n prooi beskou en wil eet. Mense word aangeraai om veral jong katte vanaf skemer binnenshuis te hou om te voorkom dat hul kat uilkos raak.

Bible for the Deaf opens new world NIELEN DE KLERK @nielendk
or many the words in the Bible are selfexplanatory. Verses like “whoever has ears, let them hear” or “if you declare with your mouth...you will be saved” are so commonplace, many don’t think twice when reading it. For a deaf person this is a completely different experience, says Dr Rocco Hough, who helped put together the English Bible for the Deaf (EBD), which the Bible Society of South Africa released at the end of last year. Hough, who was a reverend at the De la Bat Dutch Reformed Church for the deaf in Bellville for over 30 years, was directly involved with both translations, along with Elmien Roux, a retired teacher who used to
The English Bible for the Deaf.
work at the De la Bat School for the Deaf in Worcester. Helping them were scores of academics and deaf people, making this a translation developed with the deaf, for the deaf. The EBD follows the runaway success of The Afrikaans Bible for the Deaf of 2008 (now also known as the Bible for All), the first Afrikaans Bible for the deaf. The EBD is aimed at people who were born deaf and could not learn a language in an auditory way.
Necessity Hough says he was challenged to do the English translation of the Bible for the Deaf while in Kenya about 11 years ago. A pastor there said they were struggling to understand the English Bible for the Deaf they were using at the time. When he looked at the Bible himself, he saw about 50 words in the first chapter of the Bible that the average deaf person wouldn’t understand. There was a great need for a text-based Bible for the deaf in English, Hough realised. And as he knew only too well from translating the Afrikaans Bible for the Deaf, most of the existing Bible is too difficult for a deaf person to understand. “The mother tongue of the deaf is Sign Language, a very difficult language for hearing people to learn, and likewise, difficult for deaf people to understand written language as we find it in our Bibles.” A hearing impairment normally leads to language impairment. “Deaf children cannot learn a language in a normal way, and in the past deaf children were sent to a school for the deaf at the age of three where they had to learn a language in a specialised way.” Even though they have normal intelligence, the average reading ability of an adult deaf person is that of an eight-year-old-hearing child. This creates a large barrier when trying to read something like the Bible. Added to this is the fact that the Bible is filled with idioms, which is something that is acquired by speaking a language over time and not something deaf people learn automatically.
Dr Rocco Hough and his wife, Jean. Hough says Jean was a big help in the process of putting together a more readable Bible for the Deaf. Translation The translation of EBD officially started in 2011 and the text was completed after about five years. “After (this) it was tested, the development of all the footnotes and illustrations, the page layout, and then it was printed in China, who has the largest and most modern Bible printing press.” Two source experts Prof Bart Oberholzer and Prof Hermie van Zyl helped with this translation. After Oberholzer’s death, Dr Tiana Bosman took over. Hough says this Bible is ideal for groups
Bekende kinderboekskrywer bied kursus aan Die kinderboekskrywer Marianna Brandt gaan weer in Februarie haar gewilde skryfkursus aanbied. Brandt is die skrywer van onder meer die Emma-reeks en Poppie-Dot se verhale. Met vorige kursusse het sy talle suksesvolle skrywers help oplei, onder andere Elizbe van der Colff, Noreen Nolte, De Wet Hugo, Troula Goosen, Jolene du Toit, Gloudine Kellerman en Anika Molnar. Die kursus strek oor drie dae in Februarie en die presiese datum en plek sal nog bevestig word.
“Begin nou,” sê sy. “Daar is geen ouderdom aan jou talent gekoppel nie. Jy kan ’n mooi boek vir jou kleinkinders nalaat. Dink net, jy het nie eens nodig om af te tree uit hierdie unieke en opwindende beroep nie. “Jy kan net elke oomblik van jou skryfwerk geniet en dan sien hoe jou lesers dit ook geniet en waardeer.” Brandt sê die kursus bied alles wat jy nodig het om enige kinder- of jeugboek te skryf – “rillers, fantasie, wetenskapfiksie, romans, spookstories en ook talle van die
nuwe neigings.” Kursusgangers sal leer waar om idees te kry en hoe om dit te gebruik om ’n volwaardige boek te skryf. “Jy sal leer hoe om die storielyn te beplan en hoe om die slaggate te vermy.” Belangstellendes kan Brandt per e-pos kontak by brandtmarianna@ gmail.com vir meer inligting en om te bespreek.
of people wanting to read an easy translation, like Christians in countries like Pakistan and India. “There is such a big need for a Bible like this and I’m grateful we could finish it,” Hough says. Hannerie Swart, development manager at the National Institute for the Deaf (NID), says it’s special that the deaf can receive the word of God in an easily understandable way. “It supports deaf accessibility and inclusivity.” VThe Bible is available at Cum Books or at the Bible Society of South Africa.

Emergency strap to help in times of need

RICHARD ROBERTS @richardjohn_rj A Richwood resident and graphic designer, Olivia Viglatzis, has launched a new customised emergency strap to help during an emergency. The strap folds around seat belts, a baby seat and backpack strap and has details of the driver, baby or school going child – these include the name and surname of the individual, an emergency contact and medical aid details. “All of this came to mind one evening when I was driving to the shop and thought to myself, ‘what would happen if I was to be in an accident? “How would the emergency services know who to contact? “And so it all started,” Viglatzis explains. They also decided to make the strap available for school backpacks. “School children get injured and no one knows who to contact,” Viglatzis adds. According to her, the idea started small and they hope they can someday grow it into a business. “We started in November and we have only done things via Facebook so far, so we are really still small.” The business has gained some momentum through word of mouth. Viglatzis hopes to approach medical aid companies to get involved. “We will be marketing it ourselves for now as each of the emergency straps is individually made for that particular person’s needs.” The straps can be ordered and mailed to anywhere in the country.

ge is but a number. And Dr Hymie Ehrlich is proof of this as he spent his 90th birthday on Monday 13 January paragliding. Ehrlich, a former resident of Goodwood, says the offer came as a surprise to him. This was his third paragliding experience, which he says just gets better. “I never expected to be paragliding for my 90th birthday, but it was and always is a wonderful experience. Fly Cape Town Paragliding decided to gift me with the experience which I am especially grateful for. The flight was scheduled for 11:00, but we had to wait a bit more than an hour as the wind had to pick up before we could take off. The first time I went up was at the age of 86. And it just keeps getting better. I enjoy the freedom it offers and the fresh air,” says Ehrlich. “The views of the buildings are beautiful, but it was the movement of cars and people walking which was more interesting for me.” The flight, which takes off on Signal Hill, took about seven to 15 minutes. Ehrlich’s family awaited him at the landing ground in Sea Point. He says the paragliding instructor, Stephan Kruger, asked if he should do a trick in the air, but Ehrlich declined the offer saying, “No, thank you. I’m fine.” He says the remainder of his birthday was spent with family. Ehrlich currently resides in Sea Point but runs a practice in Bellville. “I’ve been practising in Bellville for 10 years, after being in Goodwood for 54 years.

‘Give more and take less ...’ NIELEN DE KLERK @nielendk
iving to others seems to be addictive. Just ask Corné Roux (33) from Rosendal, an unemployed samaritan who has been diagnosed with numerous chronic rare diseases yet continues to help those less fortunate. Roux has become somewhat of an unofficial ambassador for Ehlers Danlos Syndrome after being diagnosed with the illness in 2014 and sharing information about it on social media. She has since been diagnosed with a variety of other illnesses, the latest being Lupus at the end of last year. On her Facebook page, she details the challenges many patients face when their lives are ruled by an “invisible disease”. In her case, she’s had to stop working and relies on a disability grant. Despite these challenges, Roux has decided to change her narrative to something good.
Last year, like the three Christmases before, she donated gifts to less fortunate children. She donated 50 packages to the Amy Foundation and every gift pack was filled with a beanie, a scarf, a teddy bear, sweets, a toothbrush and toothpaste. She also donated 80 packages to Die Herberg children’s home in Robertson. These contained an additional pen, card, tissues and lip ice. She says she’s always wanted to donate goods to a rural institution and this was a children’s home with many needs. She bought most of the goods herself, with help from her father, Johan. Her friend Kim Hawes made special bags with zips which the children at Herberg received their toys in. Gertrude Roux (her mother), Corrie Strauss, Mariana Stoltz and Marietha de Jongh knitted the soft toys. Roux says she hopes everyone will give more in life, and take less.

Brothers stabbed to death Two brothers were stabbed to death with a bottleneck on an open field in Fisantekraal on 1 January. According to Capt Marchell Rhode, spokesperson for Durbanville police, the incident happened at 12:30 near Ebony Street. “According to information received the one brother was fighting with the suspect in the open field. His brother came to help him and both brothers were stabbed. They sustained fatal injuries and both passed away on the scene,” Rhode said. “The suspect also sustained injuries to his forehead, which was caused when one of the deceased attacked him with a panga,” he said. A 38-year-old suspect was arrested shortly after the incident. He appeared in the Bellville Magistrate’s Court on charges of murder.

unique and quirky art installation aimed at creating awareness around an unknown plastic pollutant and its risk has hit beaches and popular attractions around the country. The Kiickbutt initiative was initiated more than a year ago but gained momentum over the last month. The initiative is aimed at simulating the magnitude of damage created by irresponsible disposal of the cigarette butts and what animals encounter as they come across the butts in nature. The 19 life-sized butts are created from decommissioned telephone poles, spray-painted to resemble cigarette butts. Clive Amsel, WRAPP CEO, installation artist and environmentalist, says many people do not realise the cigarette butts are actually made of plastic and are one of National Geographic’s top listed plastic pollutants in the world. While they may look like white cotton, the basis of most cigarette filters is a plastic named cellulose acetate, which can take up to 10 years to fully decompose. The environmental risk is increased in the fact that filters are designed to absorb the contaminants in cigarettes and prevent them from going into the lungs. These contaminants include cadmium, arsenic and lead which are then released into waterways or ingested by animals. “We chose areas that are environmentally sensitive, but also areas where people tend to smoke and leave their butts,” says Amsel. “As you walk along the beach or take a hike anywhere in the country, you will find cigarette butts scattered all over the place, defacing the natural beauty of your surroundings.” Amsel recently also collected a 2 liter bottle full of butts while hiking up the Platteklip Gorge trail.
The identified areas included Lion’s Head, Llandudno, Table View, Scarborough, Fish Hoek, Platteklip Gorge, Kommetjie and Umhlanga beaches, Tokai, Zeekoevlei and the Cederberg mountains. The installation is funded by WRAPP waste who were motivated to get involved through their passion for responsible waste removal. Amsel says the installation will be around until June and move to other locations, weather dependent. “It seems like a small thing but it has a butterfly effect, a lot of small things add up to a big problem,” says Amsel. Another area of focus is the CBD, as Amsel says many drivers discard of their butts on sidewalks and out car windows. “This enters the stormwater systems, goes out to sea and affects our marine life and shellfish. We end up eating that,” he says. The butts have already caused a stir and Amsel hopes it will change people’s minds about irresponsible disposal of their cigarette butts, and decrease the toxic waste caused by discarded cigarette butts. It is estimated that 18 million cigarettes are smoked around the world daily. “It is a personal choice whether or not to smoke, but at least throw the discarded cigarette butts into the nearest waste bin,” he says. “We are not educating people against smoking, but rather to discard butts in a dust bin or controlled environment.” Aside from the toxicity, the butts also pose a major fire risk. One of the biggest reported veld fires which started on Table Mountain in 2007 was caused by a tourist who discarded a smouldering cigarette butt out of his car window. Amsel says they have enough funding to run until June and hope to secure additional funding to assist them in continuing at more locations beyond this date.

Nie huil of huil, nou kan jy self kies Jare gelede het mense by geleentheid gekla oor die kos wat die Suid-Afrikaanse Lugdiens op sy vlugte voorsit. Wyle Hendrik Schoeman, toe minister van vervoer, se antwoord hierop in die Parlement was: “Man, wil jy vlieg of wil jy vreet?” Ek wil dit effens aanpas na “Man, wil jy vlieg of wil jy stilte hê?” Want in ’n vliegtuig is jy oorgelewer aan wat die mense om jou doen. Daar is straks ’n huilende baba. En die baba het seker ook geen keuse nie, want iets pla. Nou het ons ’n dilemma, want soms duur die vlug twaalf uur lank of meer. Ek het simpatie met hulle en met die ouers. Babas is in die algemeen heel bekoorlik, al is dit iemand anders s’n. En natuurlik huil hulle van tyd tot tyd. Dis hoe hulle kommunikeer. In ’n vliegtuig word die lugdruk kunsmatig beheer om dit dieselfde as op die grond te hou, anders sou passasiers nie kon asemhaal nie. En dis heel dikwels wat ’n kindjie se ore laat pyn. Bo in die lug is mense woelig, party drink te veel, party skreeu in die ry af na iemand anders of die lugverkoeling drup die heeltyd in jou nek. Op een so ’n internasionale vlug het ’n pa met ’n baba in sy arms gesit – ma was nie by nie – en die baba het met die opstyg begin huil. En gehuil en gehuil en gehuil. Arme pa. Ná so vyf uur het die ander passasiers begin kla. Toe kom ’n vlugdoedie en praat met die pa. En toe ons weer hoor, is sy en die pa behoorlik in ’n yelling contest gewikkel, alles in Chinees, sien. Hy is blykbaar toe as ’n vlugrisiko beskou, want ’n mens stry nie met ’n lugwaardin nie. Toe die vliegtuig in Hong Kong land, was die sekuriteitsmanne by die deur om die pa in te wag. Hulle wou kennelik nie vir die baba ’n nuwe nappy aansit nie, maar het die pa berispe en laat gaan. Ek het hom jammer gekry. Daarna het ek nog lank gewonder oor babas op vliegtuie. Hulle kan nie verbied word nie, maar ander passasiers kan ook nie verontrief word nie. Nou het Japan Airlines besluit hy waarsku mense wanneer hulle plek bespreek as daar babas op die vlug gaan wees, en waar hulle gaan sit. Dis al ’n goeie begin om die probleem op te los. Maar wat van diegene wat ná jou bespreek? Ek doen graag ’n oplossing aan die hand: reserveer die agterste vyf rye sitplekke vir ouers met babas. Dan weet almal mos hulle moet elders sit as hulle stilte soek terwyl hulle daar tussen die wolke aan hul Moët et Chandon teug. Maroela Media het mense vir kommentaar op Japan Airlines se besluit gevra. “Sit oorpluisies in jou ore of luister musiek. Tien teen een snork jy soos ’n vark wanneer jy slaap,” lui een. En “Net so erg (as huilende babas) is pongende voete wat uit die skoene gehaal is op ’n 13 uur lange vlug...” Nog een: “Kan hulle ook aandui waar oorgewig mense sit – sal daai sitplekke ook wil vermy.” Ander sê weer: “Klomp suurgatte. Dis die probleem met die samelewing: alles gaan oor EK. EK het vir my kaartjie betaal. EK verdien stilte. EK, EK, EK.” Iemand anders sê “Ons geniet dit as kinders op die vliegtuig is en dit pla ons nie. Die meeste ouers is ‘vlieg-wise’.” Vanmelewe kon ’n mens ook kies waar jy wil sit: rook of nie-rook. En as almal nou weet die agterste deel van die vliegtuig is gereserveer vir ouers met babas, sal hulle tog weet hulle moet eerder elders sit. Dis huil of nie-huil. Ek sê: “Briljant Japan Airlines, briljant!” Kom ons hoop ander lugdienste volg die voorbeeld. Maar wag, my kind huil. Waar is daai dummy nou weer? – Werner van Tonder
“Sit pluisies in jou ore of luister musiek. Tien teen een snork jy soos ’n vark...”
Shaking things up: Once again, one of Africa’s biggest annual cultural events, the Cape Town Street Parade did not disappoint. Altogether 42 troupes, compromising approximately 10 000 performers, participated in this year’s event on Saturday 4 January. The groups marched from Hanover Street in District Six, along Darling Street past City Hall and the Grand Parade before taking a route that came to an end in the Bo-Kaap.

What are they Dankie dat julle my pa gehelp het after now . . . Barely five days into 2020, and Eskom decides to start their excuses of loadshedding. What are they after now? More money to pocket, undeserved bonuses or whatever they can think of? When are the corrupt “cronies” going to “pay back the money they wasted”? When is JZ going to own up for his part in the failure of those “so-called plants, Medupi or whatever it is called”? When are the municipalities which owe money to Eskom, going to start paying their debts? When are the illegal connections going to be stopped? Eskom is well aware of the illegal connections, but doesn’t do a thing to stop it. When is the president going to put a stop to all this and government going to stop playing the “blame game” while the poor man in the street has to put up with all this nonsense? Are we going to be compensated for our food going off in the refrigerator, for our electrical appliances being messed up due to loadshedding? Or is the “blame game” now going to shift to the new person in charge? When the new person has inherited all the “incompetent staff” who created the whole mess in the first place.

My pa van Worcester, wat in Desember by ons gekuier het, het twee dae na Kersdag besluit om die middag litte los te maak en daarop aangedring om winkels toe te stap in stede van dat ek hom neem. Hy het in Okavangoweg, naby Makro, gestruikel en hard geval. Aan die mense wat gestop het om hom te help, en veral die man wat hom ’n geleentheid huis toe gegee het, wil ek net baie dankie sê. Hy het ’n wit bakkie gery met ’n Somerset-Wes-registrasienommer. Buiten sy nerf-af knieë, en seer armspiere is die ouman darem okei. Julle hulp word opreg waardeer. CECILIA Langeberg Ridge
Parkering is ’n pyn Durbanville brei ontsettend vinnig uit en met die opening van al hoe meer winkelsentrums lok dit nóg meer motors en mense van buite. Aan die oostekant van Durbanville kry ons vier winkelsentrums – Graanendal, Pinehurst, Cobble Walk en Glengarry, waar baie van Durbanville se inwoners hul inkopies doen. Dit verlig definitief baie van die instroming van motors en besoekers aan die middedorp. Aan die westekant van die dorp, met die ontsettende
groot uitbreiding van Clara Anna Fontein en D’Urbanvale reeds daar, dink ek sal ’n winkelsentrum op die Vissershokpad groot verligting in die toekoms bring. Met 500 woonerwe, omtrent 100 woonstelle, ’n aftreeoord en privaatskool is my vraag, waar gaan al die mense hul motors in die dorp parkeer? T.H. CARSTENS Durbanville
Titanium, ons is baie dankbaar Ek wil graag hiermee my waardering uitspreek teenoor Titanium se paramedici vir hul uitstekende diens. My man het op 23 Desember geval en sy been net onder die heup op drie plekke gebreek. Ek het nie geweet watter kant toe nie en het dadelik vir Titanium geskakel. Die vrou wat die foon geantwoord het, het my kalm gehou en al die besonderhede geneem. Dit was ’n kwessie van minute toe stop hul ambulans by ons en die manne was uitstekend om hom te help en na die hospitaal te vervoer. Hulle het daar gewag totdat hy mediese hulp by die trauma-afdeling kon kry. Dit is net fantasties om te weet dat Titanium nie net na ons veiligheid omsien nie, maar ook mediese bystand kan verskaf in ’n tyd van nood. Baie dankie Titanium, ons waardeer julle opreg.

If you pay attention while you drive you will notice them on the side of the road. They are right here in our suburbs and along our motorways. They are a warning to all of us, but we probably disregard them pretty much the same way we do stop signs. Crosses, too many crosses on the side of the road. Behind each cross is a story of great heartache and lives lost too soon. I have noticed it before but even more so now after my family has planted its own cross. My son was a passenger when he died, taking with him hopes and dreams that will not be fulfilled. It took a year before we felt ready to plant our cross. Last week we went out to the crash site to see if the cross was still in place and to take fresh flowers. As we stood at the very place where my son took his last breath two cars came speeding past us, the lady was talking on her cellphone and not far behind her a guy in a bakkie, driving so fast that I heard him well before I saw the vehicle. We complain about the crime and corruption in our country, but we cannot obey the basic laws of our roads. Those crosses are sending us a message and pleading with us as drivers to slow down, stop at the red lights, ignore our cellphones, stay in our lanes and not get behind the wheel after consuming alcohol. To the families who have a cross on the side of the road, I wish you peace as you enter another year without your loved one. GRIEVING MOM Email

Model not put off by skin condition NIELEN DE KLERK @nielendk
ast year a woman walked up to Chad Esau and said she would pray for his skin to turn back to normal. Esau (22) smiled politely and then prayed for the opposite. “It was that moment that I realised I’m not that young boy who used to pray for my (skin condition) to go away. Esau, from Bellville-South, has come a long way from being bullied as a young boy. These days he’s a part-time model and is vying for the title of Mr South Africa 2020 and hopes to inspire everyone who is a little different. Vitiligo is a skin condition that causes the loss of skin colour in blotches. Michael Jackson famously tried to hide any signs of the illness, while Winnie Harlow became a top model with her unique beauty. Esau’s Vitiligo started when he was between 5 and 6 years old. “I didn’t know what it was called at that time because the internet wasn’t as informative as it is right now. I always thought it’s “wit lewer” (white liver), that’s what people called it growing up.” When he became a teenager he received his first phone and discovered the condition is called Vitiligo. He always felt self-aware about the condition, but with time he started accepting it. “I can’t picture myself without my Vitiligo,” he says. “I learned that it never mattered what people say about me growing up, it’s always
been what I tell myself.” Esau works as a barista at GrandWest and this is how his modelling career took off. He was working the night shift when a scout asked whether he wanted to start modelling. “I said yes because it is something I wanted to do.” Esau put motivational sticky notes on his wall with things he wanted to achieve and coincidentally he was focusing on a sticky note about becoming a model that specific morning. His decision to enter Mr South Africa is one that suddenly popped into his head. “I told myself ‘no that’s ridiculous, why would I wanna do modelling as big as Mr South Africa 2020’?” But later he changed his mind. “Why can’t I do this? I’ve always been a role model for family and friends growing up.” Modelling has given him a platform to inspire more people and speak to those who are a bit different or who are bullied. “I’m with an anti-bullying campaign called Brave Heart, which focuses on stopping bullying in schools and the work environment. “At the end of the day we are all imperfect, but also perfect at the same time. Because if we weren’t needed in this world we wouldn’t be here. We are all imperfectly perfect.” VTo vote for Chad in the Mr South Africa contest, SMS the word MRSA74 to 40439 (at R2 a SMS) or via Zapper. More information is available on the Mr South Africa 2020 Facebook and Instagram page as well as on Chad’s Instagram page (chad_carlton_esau). Supporters are asked to vote as many times as possible.
All-female crew waiting for call to fight fires AVRIL FILLIES The all-female firefighting wildland crew, consisting of 15 women that completed the three-month nature conservation programme at Chrysalis Academy, are rearing to go. They are known as the Nature Conservation Corporation (NCC) all-female wildland crew and hail from Capricorn, Retreat, Philippi, Bonteheuwel, Khayelitsha and Mfuleni. “The crew is the result of a successful partnership between the NCC, Chrysalis Academy and the (provincial) department of public works, with support from Vergelegen Wines. The project officially kicked off on 25 November 2019, after a recruitment process was performed,” says Kylie Paul, superintendent of the crew, the first of its kind in Africa. “There were a large number of women interested in the programme and the 15 that graduated were interviewed, performed a fitness test and were then handselected by a large panel including myself. Every member of Team Juliet completed an elective fire fighting skill phase during their three-month programme. All of them loved this part,” she says. Chrysalis Academy is hosting them while they search for accommodation and a base. “We are currently still searching for a home base, looking into many options, but
we are lacking a degree of sponsorship on this matter. We are also trying to source a vehicle that could transport us to and from fires. Any support on this from anyone would be greatly appreciated,” Paul says. TygerBurger asked why they became firefighters and here are their responses: . Zimkhitha Nqetelo (22) from Philippi: “The reason I became a firefighter is to rescue animals and my crew when they need me, also to destroy trees that could be a danger to all of us and animals (widowmakers).” . Tarren January (27) from Bonteheuwel, one of the crew leaders): “When I applied to become a firefighter I knew I had to commit myself and that it would positively change my world and my perspective. “I always loved being out in nature and exploring the wilderness, also because of my love for animals and new adventure, I decided that being a part of this team, I could contribute by lending a hand to this very important cause. It is an honour to be a part of this mission to save and protect wildlife, as well as human beings – instead of turning a blind eye to the beauty of nature that can be destroyed in the blink of an eye.” . Sisanda Bam (25) from Philippi: “I want to be a firefighter to save people’s lives, communities and animals. I also like
Team Juliet, the all-female crew of the Nature Conservation Corporation that are awaiting their first call to fight a fire.
Anga Kom and Yandiswa Tywalana keeping fit. to work with people.” . Sharne Maritz (19) from Retreat: “When I was young I witnessed my community burn down. It was horrible to see people’s lives burning away. Firefighters came but could only save some of the properties and a few people at a time. At that moment I knew exactly what I wanted to do with my life. “Whenever I see a fire-truck drive past me I get filled with excitement, it’s a burning feeling, wishing it was me heading to the fire. Now it is. I can’t see myself doing anything else. I was told I couldn’t be a firefighter because I was a weak woman, yet that did not stop me. It’s tough, dirty, amazing and an important job.” . Anelisa Thwasile (23) from Khayelitsha: “The reason I chose to become a firefighter is the love for the job and I am willing to take any chances that may come my way to save the world and to prove to some women and young girls that this is not only a man’s job.” . Nyameka Makeleni (25) from Khayelitsha: “A firefighter is the closest thing to a hero. My dream was always serving my community. I am serving my community… I became a firefighter because I love it!” Paul says the male colleagues have been a huge support from day one!
“They are so excited to have us and constantly offer advice and assistance in getting started up or on projects. They cannot wait to see us out on the line beside them. The integration with the male contingency has been effortless and really special. “They totally support this project and understand why it is so important. Many of the male firefighters have roots in Working on Fire, where there are male and female firefighters that are integrated into the crews,” she says. . Sesethu Stuma (male crew leader and experienced firefighter): “The NCC Juliet Crew, for me, is ready to respond to any fire. From what I saw when working with them on an alien clearing job was that they have the potential and energy. I am looking forward to seeing them on the line.” The women have been undergoing all the relevant wildland and fitness training that is required to perform this highly skilled, amazing and physical job. The crew has officially been on standby and ready to respond to call-outs since Thursday 2 January 2020. “We have not received a call out yet, and we have faced some operational hiccups, but are constantly training, studying and eagerly awaiting our first call. As the ladies often say, “When the going gets tough, Juliet gets going,” says Paul.

Kyk sterre op Paarlberg K apenaars en besoekers kan Saterdag die skitterende sterrehemel – spesifiek die sterrebondel 47 Tucanae – van nader leer ken tydens ’n somerpiekniek op Paarlberg. Besoekers kan die sterrehemel verken met behulp van die Orion Observasiegroep (OOG) se lede wat graag hul kennis en teleskope gratis deel. Die tema is Dans onder die Sterre, want die fokus is op 47 Tucanae, die tweede helderste sterrebondel wat pragtig in die suide sigbaar sal wees. Tucanae, genoem na ’n Suid-Amerikaanse voël, is 16 700 ligjare van die aarde en bestaan uit minstens ’n halfmiljoen sterre. Die pieknieks is baie gewild by plaaslike inwoners en oorsese besoekers, wat veral die mooi vergesigte van die valleie, berge en skiereiland geniet. Dit begin om 18:00 met ’n begeleide toer van die monument om 18:30, waarna besoekers van 20:00 tot 22:30 deur die teleskope na die hemelruim kan tuur. Gaste is welkom om hul eie piekniekmandjies te bring of een vooraf te bestel

WP-PREMIERLIGA: DURBANVILLE BLY BO
Durbies gee Langa pak slae Stormers oorheers Varsity-dag Die voormalige Springbok Hilton Lobberts, wat deesdae vir Hamiltons uitdraf, trek ’n speler van die WP-vyftiental plat tydens ’n Stormers Varsity-rugbydag op Saterdag 11 Januarie in Ravensmead. Die Stormers het sy mini-kragmetings met KSUT (15-10), Ikeys (15-5) en Maties (10-5) gewen, maar kon nie die WP-vyftiental, wat uit plaaslike klubspelers bestaan het, tot oorgawe dwing nie (10-15). Die Stormers se teenstanders het ook onderlinge mini-wedstryde gespeel. FOTO: ASHLEY VLOTMAN/GALLO IMAGES
Krieketspelers maak reg vir skolestryd Altesaam 10 hoërskole se eerste krieketspanne sal van aanstaande week af sake uitspook in die topafdeling van die Peter Buttner Sport-kompetisie vir skole in die Tygerbergstreek.

Brackenfell, President t Tygerberg, De Kuilen t Edgemead, D.F. Malan t Parow, Fairbairn t Durbanville, Curro t HTS Bellville. – Sarel Burger
urbanville se weghol-sege met 10 paaltjies oor Langa op Saterdag 11 Januarie het tot gevolg dat die Durbies steeds die bopunt van die punteleer in die WP se Premierliga beman.
