regarding the looting. However, police have
arrested two suspects for being in posession of
items suspected to have been looted. But we

One of the demands raised in the memorandum that the secretary of the Malamulele
Task Team on Boundaries, Dr Jan Nkuna, read
out, was that “Malamulele should be given

the status of being a municipality by 2014,”
and that, this should be ﬁnalised this year.
“We want this issue to be ﬁnalised before the
end of September this year,” he said, adding
that it has been a long time that they have been
waiting for the matter to be resolved and that
they were now tired and demanded action.
Poor service delivery in their area is a major
problem. The residents allege that Thulamela
municipality was too big, and does not cater

Malamulele residents (Giyani area) have
given the Thulamela municipality a taste
of what to expect if their demand of having
their own municipality was not met.
In a mass march on Monday to their local
police station to hand over a memorandum of
their thirteen year-old grievance to be given
their own municipality, the residents stoned
cars and looted shops along the way, despite
Thousands of people around Malamulele
came out in numbers to attend the march,
resulting in it reaching an uncontrollable
stage where protesters smashed and looted
anything along their way. A truck that
happened to be on the scene had all its
windows smashed as its driver pulled out of
the vehicle by an emotional crowd.
The spokesperson for the Malamulele police
said no arrests have been made in connection
with the looting or damage to property during
the light masts in our streets are not serviced.
Malamulele is said to have 107 villages
with an estimated population of above half a
million, which is said to be more than enough
to justify an independent municipality.
In the mean time, Michael Sakuneka
reports that about six hundred disgruntled
residents of Ward 2 in the Greater Tzaneen
Municipality’s jurisdiction have left the ANC
and joined Cope. They say that the GTM has
failed to provide basic services such as water,
electricity en better roads.
asking for better services since 1994.
According to Cope’s Mopani regional
secretary, Mr Aubrey Sekhula,
“residents in various villages in the
ward, like Mawa Block 8, 9 & 12
approached us to join our party”.

Elke mens het seker maar ‘n
ou sagte plekkie vir ‘n spesiﬁeke ander persoon of persone. As dit by konings,
profete, apostels, dissipels
en diesulke karakters uit
die Bybel kom, het Vlieg
twee gunstelinge. Die een
natuurlik ou Thomas, seker
omdat hy ook nie te bang was
om te erken wanneer hy begin
twyfel het nie.
Die ander deﬁnitief ou Gideon. Enersyds
omdat daar nie ‘n boek na hom vernoem
is nie, siestog, en andersyds omdat Vlieg
daarvan hou dat sy hedendaagse bende
stil en op hul plek hul werk doen. Sit net
orals in hotelle, hospitale, skole en so aan
Bybels neer, sonder om ‘n groot bohaai op
te skop en opdringerig te raak.
Anders as oorle koning Daniël se moderne
bende. Hulle maak sommer groot geraas,
nooi bekendes uit alle sfere na konferensies
en haal die voorblaaie. Vlieg sien hulle het
net die afgelope naweek weer die groot gemeentekompleks van die mega-gemeente
met die nuwe, heteroseksuele orrelis daar
langs die Moreletta-spruit volgemaak.
Praat daar toe ‘n dominee oor manne en
hul emosies en reken hy vir die manne te
sê hulle emosies is hul keuse. Mans moet
volgens hom verantwoordelikheid vir hul
emosies neem. Die manier waarop ‘n mens
dink help jou blykbaar om jou emosionele
reaksie op gebeure te bepaal.
“Dis nie jou vrou wat jou kwaad maak
nie. Dis jy wat besluit om vir
haar kwaad te word.”
Vlieg dink nie dié dominee
is getroud nie. Vlieg dink
ook nie hy het al kinders
nie, veral nie papies nie.
Hy werk ook seker alleen
en hoef geen personeel te
bestuur nie. Deﬁnitief boer hy
nie. Deﬁnitief nie!
Hy ry ook nie met ‘n motorkar op ons paaie tussen die slaggate en die taksi’s nie, en hoef dus ook nie
brandstof in te gooi nie. Vlieg weet nie
waar doen hy inkopies nie en hy eet seker
ook nooit uit nie.
Hy lees ook nie nuuspapiertjies nie en het
nie ‘n beeldradio nie. Hy het seker nie ‘n
mediese fonds nie en hoef hulle dus nooit
te bel nie. Hy was nog nooit in die Ontvanger se kantoor nie, was nie onlangs by
Binnelandse Sake, die lisensieafdeling, die
munisipale kantore of in ‘n bank nie.
Ten spyte van die dominee se teoretiese,
idealistiese naïwiteit, dink Vlieg egter nie
die raad wat hy aanbied om woede te
hanteer, is te vergesog nie.
“Roep ‘n time-out. As ‘n man se vrou iets
sê of doen wat hom sy humeur gaan laat
verloor, moet hy vir haar sê hy moet net
eers gou badkamer toe gaan.”
Vlieg dink dit is baie sinvol, want as sy
vrou of een van hierdie ander voormelde
irritasies hom de wetter in maak, voel dit
tog vir hom elke keer of hy in sy broek

Post Oﬃce fraudster caught
The Maake Police have arrested a 32 yearold suspect who is linked to various cases of
fraud which occured in the Trichardtsdal Post
Office between May and July this year.
Police Spokesperson Lt Col Moatshe
Ngoepe said the suspect is facing nine cases of
fraud. It is alleged that the suspect withdrew
cash from Post Office clients’ bank accounts,
unnoticed for some time. “The matter came
to our attention after some of the people who
became victims opened cases at local police
stations, when they realized that their money
was withdrawn by an unknown person,”
Ngoepe said. According to Ngoepe, the
suspect might be linked to more similar cases
as police investigations are still in progress.
The Police are urgently appealing to members
of the Sekororo community whose money
was mysteriously withdrawn by unknown
people to come forward and help police
with their investigations. He urged people
to call Lt Col Cecil Machimana on 072 5321
725 if they have information. The suspect,
Pheane Oscar Mokwena, who worked for the
Post Office at Trichardtsdal, appeared in the
Naphuno Magistrate’s Court on Monday and
was released on R5 000 bail. He will appear
again in court on 20 September.

Benwens die feit dat die jaarlikse stakingseisoen aangebreek het, wel gemoedere op
talle ander plekke op; oor hoofsaaklik gebrekkige dienslewering.
Is daar ‘n damwal wat in een of ander stadium gaan meegee? Waarskynlik is daar.
Daar is egter ook goeie tekens dat mense
toenemend begin besef dat jy nie deur die
klip en die vuurhoutjie noodwendig resultate
gaan kry nie, maar dat jy met die hand wat
die kruisie trek, groter sukses kan behaal.
Mense moet egter ook besef dat geen
regering wonderwerke kan verrig en dat
geld nie uit die lug val nie.
As mense deur die stembrief kan help
om die verswelgende golf korrupsie en
wanaanwending van staatsgeld te stuit,
kan die eindresultaat dit laat lyk of geld
uit die lug val! Dan sal daar baie meer geld
wees om noodsaaklike dienste aan die arm
gemeenskappe te lewer; en om bestaande
infrastruktuur behoorlik te onderhou.
Etienne Botha skryf per e-pos: Ek verwys
na Vliegologie van 2 Augustus, 2013.
Sies, Vlieg, ek het nog altyd jou se goed geniet maar die Bybel te bevraagteken is glad
nie wat ek van jou verwag het nie. As die
Bybel sê die groot vis het vir Jona ingesluk
of as die Bybel sê Jona het die groot vis ingesluk dan is dit waar en ons glo dit omdat
die Bybel so sê.
Vlieg, jy ruk die Bybel uit verband. As
Paulus sê dat vroue moet stilbly, dan is dit
alleenlik in die Kerk. So, geen vroue Predekante of Pastoors nie. En almal moet trou,
sit jy alweer die pot mis. Moenie saambly en
sondig nie. Trou eerder maar as jy nie trou,
nie moet jy kuis lewe.

The movie “ Corpus Christi “ is due to be
released this June to August. It is a disgusting ﬁlm set to appear in America later this
year which depicts Jesus and his disciples
as homosexuals! As a play, it has already
been in theatres for a while.
It’s called “ Corpus Christi “ which means
“The Body of Christ”. It’s a revolting mockery of our Lord.
But we Christians can make a diﬀerence.
That’s why I am sending this e-mail to you.

able to prevent this ﬁlm from being shown
in South Africa & UK. Let’s stand for what
we believe and stop the mockery of Jesus
Christ our Saviour. Where do we stand as

If you are not interested and do not have
the 2 minutes it will take to do this, can you

banned the ﬁlm.

Why do we as parents and also the church
often steer away from discussions on sex
especially when dealing with children?
How do they learn the correct relationships? Is it because it has always been seen
as a personal matter or is it because we
ourselves are uninformed?
In his book: “The Good and Beautiful
Life”, James Bryan Smith, uses a triangle to
describe how we should see relationships
as far as sex is concerned. The base line
represents a relationship with no physical
intimacy and no commitment.
The two sides rising up to the apex represent the two aspects of a relationship: one,
the level of commitment and the other, the
Starting at the bottom, at the base of the
triangle is the start of a relationship, notice how far the arms are apart. The level
of commitment should always be in relationship to the level of intimacy, thus it is
only when the apex is reached that sexual
intimacy should be considered and that is
The only restriction on sexual behaviour
these days is that we must never harm
or take advantage of another person and
sexual activity must always be consensual.
We have moved out of our moral ground
and thus just accept the norms of society.
Let us be more open to our children and
discuss sex openly and
then only will they be able
to make good judgement

“My broer & beste vriend
Vandag stel die Bulletin twee broers wat in

Richard direk in oupa se voetspore as tamatieboer en Jaques as veeboer. “Hulle het ‘n
invloed op ons lewens gehad,” sê Richard;
en kleinboet Jaques voeg by “Oupa het
nooit kwaad geword nie en hy was ‘n groot
gentleman.” Richard en Jaques het groot
geword in Tzaneen, gematrikuleerd uit Merensky gestap en die Plasie-titel geskud.
Richard het vir die volgende drie jaar die
titel student aangeneem en verder gaan leer
oor hoe om ‘n besigheid te bestuur deur
Business Management en masjienontwerp
te swot — by die destydse Tegniese Kollege van Tzaneen (FET College). Jaques, het

Jaques is volgende maand reeds twee jaar
lank getroud en wil deﬁnitief kinders hê.

stappe,” voeg Richard by.
Om sake te doen is die twee broers se forté. Alles het begin by PlastiekPype Tzaneen
wat in 1996 deur hul ouers gestig is. Die
jong manne het deel-eienaarskap bekom en
sedertdien — ‘n jaar en ses maande gelede
— is AfriWater op die been gebring en net
ses maande gelede hul splinternuwe breinkind, AfriDrilling. “Die drie besighede loop

Vir baie mense is die Bouwer-broers die
silwer randjie om‘n baie donker wolk.
Richard raak opgewonde as hy met meelewing vertel van hoe hulle mense se lewens
verander. “Ons is baie bevoorreg om so ‘n
groot verskil in mense se dag-tot-dag lewens te kan maak. Die blydskap op mense
se gesigte om lopende water te hê, WOW!”
Jacques voeg by dat dit die beste deel van
hul werk is. “Die tevredenheid, blydskap en
dankbaarheid motiveer ons. Soos met elke
werk is daar hier en daar iets wat ‘minder
lekker’ is. In ons geval is dit dat die werk
baie tydrowend is en dit soms moeilik is om
genoegsame tyd by die werk en net so veel
by die huis deur te bring. Struikelblokke
wat nou en dan kop uitsteek, is die krag van
Eskom en arbeidswette, asook die agterstand (in kennis) wat ons as jong sakemanne
het — die kompetisie.”
Jaques sê dat elke dag vir
hulle ‘n nuwe uitdaging is met
geen roetine nie. “Ons weet nie
wat ‘n nuwe dag vir ons inhou
Hulle is dit eens dat die resep vir sukses is om van die
begin af elke kliënt met eerlikheid en lojaliteit te behandel.
Richard vertel hoe hy gek is oor nuwe
idees, daarvan hou om geleenthede te ontgin en iets nuut aan te pak. “Ek is oop vir
besigheid”, sê hy.
Hul daaglikse verantwoordelikhede is
nimmereindigend. “‘n Agt tot vyf-werksdag ken ons nie. Ons werk tot laat.” Met AfriWater is Richard aan die stuur van sake,
Jaques is by PlastiekPype en hulle is saamsaam vir AfriDrilling verantwoordelik.
Hulle erken dat dit nie altyd maanskyn en
rose is nie, maar dit is vir hulle belangrik
om objektief te bly, die kinkel in die kabel
reguit te trek en vorentoe te beweeg. Richard verklap hul geheim: “Ons kan goed saamwerk, ek en my broer wat ook my beste

ek soos ‘n wegholtrein. Jaques knik instemmend en beskryf homself as ‘n staatmaker

Aubrey van Reenen van die
Hoërskool Ben Vorster, het
Saterdag 122 lopies van slegs
148 balle aangeteken, in ‘n
wedstryd teen Warmbad.
In die eerste helfte van die Vossies se eerste span se wedstryd het dit lekker
gegaan en dié lopie van Theo Maree was kenmerkend van die stryd — net
rooi truie waar jy kyk en byna nie ‘n gele in sig nie. Maar in die tweede helfte
het dit nie so lekker gegaan nie en op die foto onder word Erik van Niekerk
omring deur geel truie wat help keer.
Die Hoërskool Ben Vorster se BB Motors Black Cap eerste krieketspan het die
naweek plaaslik met Warmbad op die
Premium Park-krieketovaal afgereken.
Ben Vorster het die loot gewen en
besluit om eerste te kolf in ‘n baie donker bewolkte oggendsessie. Warmbad
het baie goed begin en die eerste vier
paaltjies vir slegs 88 lopies laat kantel.
Openingskolwer Aubrey van Reenen,
met 122 lopies, en Louis du Plessis met
60, het egter die Ben Vorster-span deurgetrek met ‘n 129-vennootskap. Die
Black Caps eindig met ‘n baie mededingende 323 lopies vir die verlies van 8
Na ete het die Vossie-boulers in alle erns
begin om hul telling te verdedig. Gedissiplineerde boulwerk het Warmbad tot
‘n 119 almal uit beperk. Thabo Komane
het 3 paaltjies vir 9 lopies omgekap en is
goed bygestaan deur Jean-Piere Prinsloo,
Girvacques de Jager en Don Radebe wat
elkeen 2 paaltjies gevat het. Ben Vorster
wen dus met 204 lopies.
Die o.15’s het op Lord Milner se
krieketveld in Settlers gespeel. Warmbad het die loot gewen en besluit om
eerste te kolf. Die Vossies was egter
net te goed vir Warmbad en boul hulle
uit vir slegs 66 lopies in 16 boulbeurte.
Jimmy Modiba en Gideon Coertzen het
elkeen 2 paaltjies geneem.
Die Vossie-kolwers het slegs 7 beurte
benodig om die wen-telling verby te
steek. Openingskolwer Jimmy Modiba
met 20 lopies, en Gideon Coertzen met
17 n.u.n. het Ben Vorster tot die wenteiken gehelp. Ben Vorster wen dus met

Haar toewyding het haar ‘n verdere
geleentheid besorg om onder ‘n Thaise
professor ‘n driejaarkursus in drie maande
te voltooi. Bella, wat intussen deur haar
Thailse kollegas en vriende Suranaree gedoop is (beteken sterk vrou: geestelik, ﬁsies
en emosioneel) het die dorpie met dieselfde
naam in Thailand gaan opsoek.

In die voorste vertrek kan jy jou in ‘n salige atmosfeer tuis maak vir refeksiologie op

Hier leef Bella Nortjé haar droom. “Ek
het nog altyd ‘n passie om mense te bedien
met genesing,” sê sy. Alhoewel in Namibië
gebore en getoë, het sy van jongs af reeds
rond en bont in Suid-Afrika gewoon. “Ek
het tussen die Boesmans en Hereros grootgeword. Die Brandberge… waar die welwitshia en die welbekende ‘witvrou’ is …
daar lê my spore.”
‘n Betekenisvolle oomblik in haar lewe,
was toe sy en haar dogtertjie ‘n Thaise spa
in ‘n groot Johannesburgse winkelsentrum
besoek het. Sy en die eienares het aan die
gesels geraak oor hul gedeelde passie. Sy

is so veelsydig geseënd soos hul kunstige,
kleurvolle ma en het saam met haar verskeie sakke sout geëet. Haar dankbaarheid
vir en teenoor hulle is groot.
Sy wil ook langs hierdie weg haar dank
betuig teenoor God, haar eks-man wat met
die kinders gehelp het toe sy besig was
om hierdie besigheid te bou, en haar Thaivriendin en kollega, wat haar raakgesien en
geleenthede gegee het.

20:30 deur twee onbekende aanvallers op sy

hy besig was om bokkies in sy agterplaas te voer.
Hulle het hom van agter gegryp en gewurg tot
hy op die grond neergeval het. Sy vriendin en oppasster, me Marinda van Zyl, het net betyds by die
agterdeur uitgestorm om te sien hoe hulle hom los
en weghardloop. Niks is gesteel nie, maar Viljoen
het beserings aan sy keel en lyf opgedoen.

maar niemand is nog oor die voorval aangekeer nie.

eiendom, water- en mineraleregte is ontneem, suksesvolle eisers hoef nie meer hul

opsporing van grafte sal deurslaggewend
wees in die toestaan van grondeise.
Hierbenewens gaan druk uitgeoefen
word om elke plaaswerker wat tien jaar

Besitreg van grond gaan die bewoners van die nege tuislande gegee word,
waarby minstens 22 miljoen mense sal
baat vind. Ses van die nege tuislande is in
Limpopo en die OosKaap.
Die regering het nie alternatiewe planne
hiervoor nie en AgriSA moet binne drie
weke ‘n strategie in plek hê om dié bleek
vooruitsigte te kelder.
Dié situasie is vandeesweek op die
voorlaaste vergadering van AgriLetaba
aan boere geskets in ‘n voorlegging deur
dr Theo de Jager, adjunk-president van
AgriSA, wat pas van samesprekings met
die regering uit Kaapstad teruggekeer het.
“Nou moet julle boer. Ons kan nie
verder stagneer en ophou boer soos
met die instelling van die eerste sarsie
grondeise nie. Elke landboustreek in die
land sal moet saamstaan en produseer
om AgriSA se hand teen die voorgestelde
planne te versterk.”
Dit was in sy gesprek duidelik dat die
ANC-kant van die regering reeds hase uit
die hoed begin trek om kiesers volgende
jaar na die stembus te lok.
Hy het na die besitreg verwys en gesê as
een boer tien mense huisves wat tien jaar
en langer vir hom werk, is hy sy besitreg
Volgens De Jager het die kwessie oor
hoeveel grond jy mag hê (grondplafonne), by ‘n vorige bespreking sterk
teenkanting gekry, maar toe raak die
notules oor die bespreking skielik weg.
‘n Werkgroep kyk op die oomblik na
staatsgrond (sowat 33%) wat onbenut lê.
Dit moet uitverhuur word om produktief
te raak. Dit sal egter nie so maklik wees
nie, want die huurder moet BEE kwaliﬁseer en die huurtermyn moet ekonomies
die moeite werd wees.
Buitelandse grondbesit gaan uitgefaseer
word. Dit kan volgens De Jager ‘n erge
negatiewe invloed op beleggings uit die
buiteland hê, want dié grondbesit is hoofsaaklik in wild, voedsel en wyn.
Groot maatskappye kan ook in die slag
bly, omdat ‘n deel van hul eienaars buitelanders is. Hy het die name van groepe
soos Westfalia, Sappi en Mondi as voorbeelde genoem.
Koperdiewe baljaar deesdae in Tzaneen en Letsitele,

AgriLetaba se voorsitter, mnr Dries Enslin, het by
Woensdag se AgriLetaba-vergadering ‘n lys van
besware teen polisie-optrede in Tzaneen voorgelê,
wat tydens ‘n spesiale vergadering met die polisie
bespreek sal word. Een van die besware is koperdiefstal wat groot ontwrigting op landbougebied veroorsaak. Hy het gesê die probleem is meer as tien keer
erger as voorheen. Dit dwing pakhuise tot stilstand
en ontwrig besproeiing, wat baie groter skade meebring as die enkele meters koper wat in die slag bly.
Nog klagtes van AgriLetaba is die stadige reaksietyd van die polisie wanneer ‘n misdaad aangemeld word. Dit neem etlike ure en selfs dae vir
hulle om te reageer. Wanneer hulle opdaag, word
‘n saaknommer aangeteken, maar die ondersoeke
en terugvoering bly agterweë. Klein diefstalle
(soos die steel van tien hoenders) word as te gering beskou om ondersoek te word.
Mnr Ron Reiners van Agatha se beswaar was dat
leiers van die sektorpolisie na ‘n dag se werk huis
toe gaan met die telefoon waarvan die nommer vir
24 uur beskikbaar moet wees.
Dit is voorgelê aan kol Binky Usiba van die polisie, wat voortaan AgriLetaba se vergaderings sal
bywoon. Dit was in die verlede ‘n knelpunt dat die
polisie elke keer ‘n nuwe en onervare lid na die vergaderings gestuur het, met min resultate daarop.
New chef moves in
Mr Peter Irons has been appointed executive chef at the Coach
House. A member of the Chefs Association of South Africa, Irons
brings 38 years’ experience in restaurant management, latterly in the
Kruger National Park and the Raptors Restaurant In Mbombela.
He ran the well-known Selati Train Restaurant at Skukuza for seven years before it was sadly demolished by ﬁre. It catered for VIPs,
politicians and overseas visitors, venison being the main speciality.
He aims to bring back the dishes for which the original Coach House
was famous and to re-introduce the popular Sunday buﬀet.
“My challenge is to fuse modern cuisine with the old classical
dishes, such as avocado ice-cream with balsamic reduction.”
The Coach House holds fond memories for him as he was married here 29 years ago. The six-course wedding feast, including
fresh oysters, cost R26/head.
Irons started his career with the SA Defence Force where he
took a cookery course specialising in French cuisine (which may
sound odd to old ‘troopies’) and rose to sergeant major in the
He is an avid bird-watcher and looks forward to pursuing his
hobby in the beautiful environment of Agatha. He is also a keen
gardener and has taken over the supervision of the hotel’s extensive gardens. His wife Manya has also been employed at the
Coach House as part of the sales and marketing team.

If you have kids or are an allergy-suﬀerer
yourself, you probably already know that
a lot of small things cause allergies. This is
especially true of bedrooms, as it is the room
you spend the most time in — more than
Try these tips to allergy-proof your bedroom
and get a good night’s sleep:
• Wipe the dust oﬀ the bed frame, wood
and metal parts of the furniture with a damp
cloth once a month.
• Buy covers that keep mites and allergens
at bay for your mattress and base.
• Make sure it is the breathable kind. For
more comfort, add a washable mattress pad
• Wash all linens in hot water once a week.
Wash blankets in hot water every two to four
• Put your pillows in allergen-proof covers.
Wash synthetic pillows once a month in very
hot water. Throw away any pillows that are
lumpy, old or discoloured.
• Avoid: wool blankets (if you are sensitive
to the ﬁbres) and foam-rubber cushions,
pillows and mattress (which attract mold
• Remove carpeting. If you can’t, rather
use low pile rugs than lush shag carpeting.
Vacuum twice weekly. Take out all the
boxes, shoes and trinkets
from under the bed. They
collect dust very easily.
• Keep pets out of the
bedroom. They bring dust
and mites wherever they go.
• Don’t eat in bed.
Cockroaches will move into
your bedroom for the small
scraps you leave behind.
• Don’t put candles,
especially scented candles,
in the bedroom. It can
release irritating or harmful
• Keep bookcases away
from the bed or move them
Working with a small garden
Source: Source: http://homemag.co.za/gardening/smarten-up-your-small-garden/#sthash.6h23rl6T.dpuf
With spring approaching the outdoors seem
more attractive and you start longing to sit
under a tree and read or get your backyard
ready for a braai.
There are many ways to transform your small
garden into a summertime oasis.
Walls, paving, pillars and groundcover
contrasting and complementing comfy
cushions on gorgeous bench or beautiful
cement plant pots come together to create an
inviting garden corner.
Use the walls and floor as focal points. Paint
an ugly wall or create a sense of space with a
striking mural, add a touch of romance with
fragrant creepers. Flagstones and pavers,
surrounded by groundcover and bedding
plants lead visitors to your oasis.
The crowning glory should be a comfortable
bench or weather-proof hammock with a large
garden umbrella to create shade on hot days.
The braai zone
If a braai on the weekend is tradition in your
house, then an outdoor braai is a must. Get a
built-in braai on the veranda, sheltered from
wind and within easy reach of the kitchen.
Alternatively there are many freestanding or
portable braai-units around which you can
create a haven for the men who live chatting
around the ﬁre.
Remember to keep your braai zone close to
the kitchen and add a work surface for cutting,
seasoning and keeping serving dishes, as well
as a wash basin for sticky hands.
For a cosy atmosphere, add a picnic table
or two (in the shade / with umbrellas) where
guests can sit and eat. Place the seating area
where the smoke from the ﬁre won’t irritate.
Most people don’t have the time or energy to
keep their garden looking lush and green all
the time. Use structure and low-maintenance
plants to create a fabulous garden that will
not take up your whole Saturday. Ask your
nearest nursery for plants that need minimal
tending but are still colourful.
Use boundary walls with creepers to create
the illusion of a lush paradise. Paving stones,
gravel and grass need little tending, but used
together with flowering shrubs or ground
cover plants can create a green paradise.
With a small garden space a pool is out of
the question. Install a water feature ﬁtting
the garden atmosphere and space instead.
Water features cool down the garden, which
will have a big impact on your garden in the
summer, and has a soothing eﬀect on people.
Use a water feature as a focal point and
design your garden around it. There are many
diﬀerent types of bowls, ponds and other
interesting shapes. Try to create your own or
visit a local nursery to browse their selection.
In the interest of water conservation, rather
choose a smaller water feature.
Remember to match the water feature with
the garden. Circular and square ponds tend
to ﬁt more formal gardens. Keep the water
feature away from trees or you’ll constantly
have to clean leaves out of it. Install it in a
sheltered spot if your garden is regularly
exposed to strong winds.
Boundary walls can have a great impact on
your garden. A wall of plants or a brick and
mortar wall can be used to create secret nooks
and separate spaces,
even in a small garden.
Use frames or trellises
for creepers to soften

Stanford Lake College received the PMR Africa Diamond Award as the
Best Independent School in Limpopo for 2013 at a business breakfast
in Polokwane. Seen here receiving the award are Mr Craig Carolan
(headmaster), Cassie McGaffin (head girl) and Brandon Wright (head
boy). This is the second year in a row that SLC has been rewarded.
‘Tea on the
The pupils of the Letaba School for the Handicapped had a big birthday party last week
Friday, courtesy of a homegrown Samaritan.
The Nkowankowa-bred Ms Priscilla Mothobuka (better known as Nhlagi), celebrated
her birthday in June, but decided to treat
needy children instead of calling up her
friends and family for a party in Johannesburg.
Gathering friends and family, they decided
to make the party part of their Mandela Day
contributions. Their motto — make every day
a Mandela Day!
As part of the celebrations, each pupil of
Letaba School received a Mandela Day t-shirt
and cap. Mothobuka also had fleece blankets
personalised. “Each child’s name was embroidered so that they know which blanket
is theirs and that it doesn’t get lost or taken,”
she explains with a smile.
As part of their 67 minutes for Mandela Day
Mothobuka’s group cleaned the boys’ hostel,
prepared breakfast, tea with cakes and made
lunch for the pupils. After tea, the pupils held
a small ceremony where they sang, danced
and thanked Mothobuka for her kindness.
Mothobuka hopes that her actions will inspire others to extend their Mandela Day
contributions past 18 July.
To keep the children warm, Ms Priscilla Mothobuka gave each pupil of
the Letaba School a fleece blanket with their name embroidered on. Robert Nkwana, one of the pupils, wrapped himself in his new blanket as
soon as it was handed to him. Mothobuka bent down and chatted to him
for a bit. Photo: Retha Nel

Is Oubal nou nie beswaard oor neef Outop se skrywe verlede
week in hierdie dun rooi koerantjie nie! Nie juis oor wat die
neef te sê het nie — Oubal is dankbaar om te sien iemand lees
darem die skryfsels wat hy pleeg. Oubal se beswaardheid
gaan daaroor dat Outoppie toegelaat word om ‘n 2 000-woord
epistel gepubliseer te kry, terwyl hyself in die sweet van sy
aanskyn weekliks beperk word tot ‘n skamele 500 woorde!
Die onsamehangende epistel is grootliks ‘n aanval op die
plaaslike rooiskool se modus operandi en Oubal en hierdie
weekblad se klaarblyklike onkritiese kyk daarna. As neef
Outop hierdie koerant meer dikwels en met meer aandag
lees, sal hy agterkom Oubal vuur meestal kartetse af teen
onbeholpenheid, onhebbelikheid en algemene onnooslikheid
in die sportwêreld. Oubal kolf allermins vir die rooiskool
— probeer gerus ‘n vorige rubriek van Oubal, “Groot of
Medium?”, onder oë kry vir perspektief!
Oubal kan nie ontken dat sommige van die dinge wat neef
Outop teen die rooiskool opper die waarheid is nie. Die
meeste van hulle is egter sulke ou koeie dat daar ‘n besliste
klank van verrotting uit die sloot kom.
Vir Oubal gaan dit in die eerste plek oor rakbie en die
gesamentlike stand daarvan in ons skole, wat uiteindelik
bepaal hoe mededingend Limpopo op Cravenweek sal wees
en hoe suksesvol ons kinders na skool sal kan meeding.
Outoppie se onsubtiele kritiek op die Limpopo CW se
spankeuses en afrigterspan het dus weinig met Oubal of
hierdie koerant te doen, en behoort veel eerder met die
Limpopo Hoërskole Rugbyvereniging opgeneem te word.
Ter wille van ‘n repliekpunt wil Oubal graag ‘n kykie gee
na wat van sommige Limpopo-kinders word. Omdat Oubal
ietwat verwyderd is van die stookoond van enige bepaalde
skool, is hy dank verskuldig aan sy uitgebreide kring van
informante wat hiermee gehelp het:
Chiliboy Ralepelle is waarskynlik die bekendste Limpopokind wat na laerskool elders gaan speel het (Pretoria Boys’
High/Bulle). Daar was kinders wat in Gr11 vir Limpopo CW
gespeel het, maar in matriek elders uitgedraf het — Jannie
Stander van Frans du Toit (Monument/Leeus), Kobus Marais
van Ben Viljoen (Waterkloof) en Johan Bannink van Ben
Jesse du Toit van Phalaborwa het vir Limpopo-laerskole CW
gespeel, maar sy hoërskoolloopbaan op Nelspruit voortgesit,
waar hy hierdie jaar vir die eerste span gespeel het. ‘n Baie
belowende Thapelo Rapelwana was tot o.15 in Ben Vorster,
maar is daarna St John’s College toe, vanwaar hy die Leeus
op CW-vlak verteenwoordig het. Soos aan Oubal meegedeel,
kon Marais, Bannink en Rapelwana al drie in 2012 vir die
Limpopo CW-span (waaroor u so krities is) gespeel het, maar
dan sou jy seker nog steeds die Tzaneener en Duiwelsklower
as huursoldate beskou het, neef!
Oubal verneem ook dat vier van PHS se huidige o.15’s na
afloop van die Julie-vakansie in Pretoria aangemeld het, en
gerugte wil dit hê dat twee van Pietersburg Laerskool se o.13’s
moet besluit of hulle volgende jaar Glenwood of Garsfontein
toe gaan. Oubal hoor ook dat twee van die “blouskool oorkant
die brug” se spelers ‘n jaar of twee, drie gelede in die middel
van die seisoen na Diamantveld in Kimberley is.
Daar is waarskynlik heelwat meer sulke gevalle wat nie onder
Oubal se aandag gebring is nie, maar hy hoop die prentjie is vir
Outoppie duidelik — kinders verlaat ons provinsie agter die
perseptiewe lokaas van beter afrigting en geleenthede aan, ‘n
realiteit van die semi-professionele era wat skolerakbie betree
het. Na Oubal se onbeskeie opinie sê dit veel meer van die
instansie waar hulle vandaan kom as andersom, en dit sluit die
rooiskool in, as u tot hiertoe opgelet het!
Outoppie se reaksie is egter voorspelbaar tiperend van wat
die Aussies “tall poppy syndrome” noem — in plaas daarvan
om ‘n doelgerigte poging aan te wend om op gelyke voet met
die hoë boom mee te ding, probeer jy jou uiterste bes om hom
af te kap. Intussen word jyself niks meer as ‘n blote struik in

First league matches for
National First Division teams
This weekend marks the commencement of
the National First Division League matches.
Black Leopards will resume their activities
for the new season by playing away from
home. They will play against Roses United
at the Botshabelo Stadium. It will be the ﬁrst
league match for Lidoda Duvha in the lower division after facing the chop from the Premiership Division at the end of last season.
There will be two Cape Town derbies in

Town will take on Milano United, while Santos will face Vasco da Gama.
die groot woud daar buite nie.
‘Tja, Oubal se ewe ongevraagde raad aan Outoppie (en
andere wat soos hy redeneer) is dat hy hom liewer daarvan
moet weerhou om die een instansie in Limpopo wat poog
om die tendens van talentverlies teë te werk met rokies af te
skiet, en eerder, in soverre dit binne sy vermoë is, te help om
genoemde talent hier te probeer hou!
Oubal sal sy plig versuim deur nie sy uiterste teleurstelling
uit te spreek nie in Trevor Nyakane wat uit die Bokgroep
geskop is vir “herhaaldelike oortredings van spanprotokol”.
Oubal was op die punt om te skryf hoe teleurgesteld hy in
Heyneke Meyer is oor Heyneke vir Gürthro Steenkamp
van oorsee laat kom het om in onse Vettie se plek op die
reserwebank te sit, toe die nuus breek dat daar ander dinge
agter die skerms gebeur het.
‘Tja, Trevor, ou seun, om vir die Bokke gekies te word is iets
waaroor elke jong rakbiespeler droom en sy voortande sal
gee. Oubal sou dink dat ‘n mens daardie voorreg as kosbaar
sal beskou en só stiptelik sal wees dat jy eerste by die videosessies, op die bus en op die vliegtuig sal wees. Maar jy is
jonk en dis jou voorrreg om foute te maak. Oubal hoop egter
jy neem hierdie les ter harte en leer daaruit — kry ‘n wekker
en leer om vroeg op te staan!
Oubal wil hiermee ook die rooiskool van harte gelukwens
met hul verowering van drie Beeldtrofeë vir medium skole.
Oubal wil die wens uitspreek dat dit julle laaste oorwinnings
in hierdie kategorie was, want soos voorheen gesê, dink
Oubal julle skiet julleself in die voet deur nie teen julle
porture te speel nie, wen of verloor.
Verskoon dus maar dat Oubal nie julle geesdriftige
opgewondenheid deel nie. Om ‘n tree terug te gee, beteken
uiteindelik jy speel die gehalte rakbie waarmee jy jouself
vereenselwig, wat Oubal verstaan juis Saterdag gebeur
het. En dan gly jy boonop nog maklik op ‘n verleentheidpiesangskil soos wat met die o.14’s gebeur het!

Businessmen take part
About 22 men and one woman participated in a monthly golf
tournament organized by the Baobab Golf Club at the Tzaneen
Country Club. It was the third tournament since the Club was
introduced by various top business men three month ago.
The tournament was won by Sheriﬀ Mashile from Phalaborwa,
Robert Rabothata from Motsinoni, Bolobedu, was second and
Frans Moshole of Tzaneen came third. Members of the club were
also encouraged to join clubs so that next time they would be able
to participate in an official handicap.
Rufus Mokonyane, one of the top businessmen in Tzaneen, said
they have written to the manager of the Tzaneen Country Club to
express their dissatisfaction with the manner in which the event
was staged. The Baobab Club’s members are from various towns
around Mopani District.
The other ﬁxtures are Chippa United vs
Blackburn Rovers, Witbank Spurs vs Thanda
Royal Zulu, Baroka FC vs Sivutsa Stars, African Warriors vs Maluti FET College and Jomo
Cosmos vs United FC.
Thanda Royal still have unﬁnished business
with the Premier Soccer League. They recently referred their case against the league to the
FIFA Appeals Board, after failing to convince
the arbitrator that they were unfairly denied
promotion to the elite league last season.

Terwyl dit met die senior spanne in die groter Blou
Bul-land nie so goed gaan nie, presteer die Limpopo Blou Bulle se o.19- en o.21-spanne heel goed
in die Absa Curriebekerkompetisie. Hulle speel in
die B-afdeling teen die EP Kings, Valke, Boland,
SWD, Griekwas, Griﬀons en die Pumas. Hulle het
in hul eerste wedstryde gespeel en die o.19’s het in
George teen die SWD gespeel en met 18-16 gewen.
Die o.21-span het het die SWD met 60-0 behoorlik
onder die stof geloop.
Die afgelope naweek het die twee spanne teen
die Pumas te staan gekom. Die o.19’s het 6214 amok gemaak en die o.21’s het ewe wreed
gespeel en met 53-19 gewen.
Mnr Gawie du Plessis van Letaba het die
spanne verteenwoordig en ook die Speler van
die wedstryd-bekers oorhandig.
Oud-Vossie Marcel Scholtz het ‘n blink vertoning op losskakel vir die o.21-span gelewer.
More speel albei spanne in Bela teen die Boland.
Die o.19-span is derde op die punteleerlog, een
punt agter die Kings en Valke wat saam eerste is,
terwyl die o.21-span eerste op die punteleer lê.
Vossies wen Beeld, maar…
En toe stap die Vossies se drie spanne wat tot
die Beeldtrofee se eindstryd deurgedring het
Saterdag met drie bekers weg. Maar dit het
vir die eerste span nie altyd so maklik gegaan
nie en in die tweede helfte van hul wedstryd
het hulle hul ondersteuners baie bekommerd
Vir die o.14’s was dit natuurlik ‘n stryd tussen
die Hoërskool Oosterlig en die Hoërskool Ben
Viljoen, wat na ‘n drie in “beseringstyd” deur
Oosterlig met 22 elk gelykop geëindig het.
Hulle deel dus die beker.
Die o.15-eindstryd was tussen Ben Vorster en
die Hoërskool Vryburg. Die Vossies het eerste
punte aangeteken, toe hul kaptein, Stefan
Engelbrecht, na ‘n mooi breekslag oorgebeur
het vir vyf punte. Kort hierna het linkervleuel
Ruben Ragolane oorgeduik en Andre Klopper
se visier was in met die doelskop. Net voor
rustyd het slot Nyiko Mahamu ‘n puik drie
gedruk en die spanne is kleedkamer toe met
die Vossies 17-0 voor.
Na rustyd het Vryburg verwoed ingeklim en
twee vinnige drieë gedruk om die telbord te
laat aanskuif na 17-12. Die Vossies antwoord
egter toe Ruben Ragolane (vleuel) ‘n puik
agterlynbeweging vir sy tweede drie afrond.
Telling nou 24-12. Van die afskop af is dit weer
Vryburg wat ‘n drie gaan druk en die telling
word 24-19. Die Vossies skakel egter oor na
‘n hoër rat en druk nog twee drieë deur die
vleuel BornwiseThibela en die heelagter Floyd
Ledwaba. Vryburg kry aan die einde van die
wedstryd ‘n troosprysdrie om die eindtelling
34-26 in die Vossies se guns te maak. Die
haker Ruben Koekemoer is as speler van die
Die o.16’s kom toe aan die beurt, teen die
Hoërskool Delmas. Ben Vorster val sterk aan
van die afskop af en met Delmas wat oortree,
slaag die losskakel Duan Schoeman vroeg met
die strafdoel (3-0). Delmas gaan nie lê nie en
druk die eerste drie van die wedstryd (7-3).
Die laaste tien minute van die eerste helfte
het aan die Vossies behoort met die agsteman,
Jacques Venter, wat gaan druk het; toe rond die
senter Sibusiso Mhlangeni mooi af na ‘n puik
teenaanval van vleuel Christiaan Bronkhorst
en kort voor rustyd druk skrumskakel Dylan
Janse van Rensburg ‘n opportunistiese drie
Delmas het in die tweede helfte met mening
terug geveg en vroeg-vroeg. Die doelskop
is oor en die telling is nou 20-14. Die Vossies
antwoord met ‘n strafdoel (23-14). In die res
van die helfte verdedig albei spanne verwoed
en loods die een aanval op die ander. Ben
Vorster slaan die laaste spyker in die doodkis,
toe vleuel Pule Mollokomme met speeltyd
verstreke oorgaan vir ‘n welverdiende drie.
Die eindtelling: 28-14 in die Vossies se guns.
Die stut Matimu Manganyi is as speler van die
Die eerste spanne van die Vossies en die
Hoërskool Ben Viljoen het toe aan die beurt
gekom. Die Vossies begin die wedstryd puik
en hul voorspelers klim byna ongekend in,
teen ‘n hoogs gemotiveerde span van die
besoekers. Die Vossies se Jinx Molapo (senter)
het binne die eerste twee minute deur ‘n horde
verdedigers gebreek en agter die pale gaan
kuier. Leroy Ndlovu het fyn gekorrel en die
Vossies loop 7-0 voor. Van die afskop af is dit
nog steeds net die Vossies en die vleuel Tsepiso
Mahasha het gaan druk (12-0).
Die Vossies het op die voorvoet gebly en kort
voor lank gaan die woelige loskopstut Madot
Mabokela oor vir ‘n drie. Die doelskop is oor
en die Vossies loop voor met 19-0. Ben Viljoen
kom uiteindelik op die telbord na sowat 25
minute se spel, toe hulle oorgaan vir ‘n drie
(19-7). Die Vossies het egter die laaste gepraat
voor rustyd, toe eers agsteman Floyd Ntimane
oorduik, opgevolg deur die flank Theo Mahlo.
Die rustydtydtelling is dus 31-7 vir die Vossies.
In die tweede helfte is die wedstryd
beduidend stadiger en dit het gelyk of die hitte
albei spanne benadeel het. Die Vossies het veral
teleurgestel met hul speltempo in dié helfte.
Ben Viljoen het in dié helfte nog twee drieë
gaan druk, om die telling 31-19 te maak. Die
Vossies was egter nie lus vir verloor nie en
Leroy Ndlovu het met ‘n strafdoel geslaag om
die telling te rek. Met speeltyd verstreke het
losskakel Andries Bruwer onderskep en agter
die pale gaan kuier. Die eindtelling: 41-19.
Andries is welverdiend as speler van die
