[12 Aug 2011 | No Comment | ]	“Ek het niks om aan te trek nie!”
Elkeen van ons het dit al gesê terwyl ons voor ons kas staan wat eintlik propvol klere is. Niks lyk presies reg nie. Loslit Dag bied jou een dag in die jaar aan waar enige iets aanvaarbaar is. Hierdie besonders gewilde fondsinsamelingsgebeurtenis is gebaseer op die konsep dat jy enige iets vir die dag kan aantrek, solank jy die amptelike Loslit Dag-plakker ook dra. Die opbrengs van die donasies vir die plakkers bevoordeel organisasies wat dienste bied aan mense met gestremdhede.
Die 2011 veldtog vind op Vrydag …

However, we can all look forward to the most beautiful season of the year, Spring! Time to clean out all the cobwebs, dust off the garden tools, get the pool ready and live again!
Dit is ook die maand vir vroue! Oral word hierdie maand vroue vereer en die vriendin, vou, ma, suster en kollegas word van nuutsaf …

Ek het onlangs ‘n ring opgetel en ek wil dit graag aan die eienaar wil terugbesorg.
Die ring is waarskynlik in die afgelope 18 maande in die Centurion-area verloor (of dalk gesteel?).
Skryf asb. aan ring.gevind@gmail.com en beskryf die ring om dit op te eis met ‘n beskrywing wat voldoende met die werklike ring ooreenstem wat my sal oortuig van u eienaarskap.
Verskaf asb. die volgende punte: tipe ring, wanneer aangeskaf, deur wie verkoop of vervaardig; tipe metaal; gewig; vingergrootte; inskripsies of ander merke; steen (tipe, aantal, …

[12 Aug 2011 | No Comment | ]	Recently The Centurion received an email informing us that the United Nation Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) in collaboration with the Nelson Mandela Foundation (NMF) and William J Clinton Foundation held an internet raffle draw.

“Ek glo dat enige “beauty queen” nie net ‘n mooi gesiggie moet wees nie, maar wel iemand wees wat terug in die gemeenskap sit. Baie kinders kry alles wat mamma en pappa kan gee, maar hierdie kinders het nie huise nie,” sê Natasha.
Albei dae was lekker om ander gelukkig te maak maar dit was vir Natasha hartseer om totsiens te …
