PAVILJOEN EN SEEMUUR: OPGRADERING BINNEKORT ’N REALITEIT
Uiteindelik ’n nuwe baadjie vir Strand DALEEN FOUCHÉ Die uitgebreide opgraderingsprojek vir Strand se paviljoengebied en seemuur is die eerste stap om dié kusdorp se vorige roem as top-toeristebestemming te herstel. Dit is volgens Daantjie Malan, voorsitter van die Strand se belastingbetalersvereniging. Die Stad Kaapstad het Vrydag aangekondig die projek behels onder meer die oorbou van die seemuur vir R178 miljoen en die opgradering van die paviljoen-parkeerarea vir R13 miljoen, die oorbou van die vervalle pier en die afbreek van Deep Blue. Die nuwe seemuur sal gebou word presies waar die huidige muur staan, maar sal die vorm van ’n promenade soortgelyk aan dié by See-
punt, aanneem. Die projek sal ook ’n deel van die paviljoen-parkeerarea omskep in ’n openbare ruimte met ’n aparte gebied vir die informele handelaars. Malan meen alhoewel dié projekte ’n hele aantal van die Strand se oudste probleme aanspreek,salditnievoldoendewees om dieStrand weer die toeristemekka van Suid-Afrika te maak nie. Tog meen hy dié projek is die eerste stap om die droom te realiseer. Malan, wat ook die voorsitter van die Jetty Trust is, sê hy is bly om te verneem die pier is nou deel van die beplande projek. Die Jetty Trust sou voorheen die voortou neem met die herbou van die pier, maar daar is nooit genoeg geld ingesamel nie. Hy sê hy gee nie om wie die pier opgradeer nie, solank dit net gebeur. Brett Bailey, bestuurder van die Strand Pavi-
lion Resort, sê as die projek “uiteindelik” realiseer, sal dit ’n groot aanwins vir die Strand wees. Bailey is nog skepties oor die projek omdat dit reeds verlede jaar moes begin het, maar verwelkom die Stad Kaapstad se aankondiging dat die werk aan die seemuur in Junie begin. “Enige verbetering aan die Strand sal verwelkom word.” Bailey meen alhoewel konstruksiewerk ’n moontlike negatiewe impak op besighede, veral restaurante, kan hê, sal dit help as die Stad behoorlik met die publiek kommunikeer oor die konstruksie gedurende die tydperk wat die bouwerk plaasvind. Die oorbou van die seemuur, wat oor die 100 jaar oud is, en opgradering van die paviljoengebied word al sedert 2008 bespreek en die burgemeesterskomiteelid vir energie, omgewing en ruimtelike beplanning, raadslid Johan van der
Merwe, sê daar is nou groot afwagting dat die projek ’n realiteit word. Hy sê die Stad beoog om die paviljoengebied ’n mooi en inklusiewe openbare ruimte te maak wat beleggers na dié “geliefde en historiese” deel van Kaapstad sal lok. Raadslid vir die Strandgebied, Dave Venter, sê die informele handelaars sal reeds oor die komende Paasnaweek na hulle nuwe tydelike handelsgebied geskuif word op die hoek van Fagan- en Hoofstraat. Venter sê dit word gedoen sodat die handelaars hulself kan vestig by die nuwe staanplek. Hoewel van die handelaars bekommerd is dat hulle ’n verlies aan inkomste gaan beleef, meen Venter die tydelike staanplek is ideaal omdat dit baie voete van die treinstasie en taxistaanplek lok.

Die langverwagte oorbou van die Strand se seemuur en opgradering van die paviljoen begin nou nader kom en hoewel die opgraderings verwelkom word, sal die uitgebreide projek baie inwoners en vakansiegangers gedurende die konstruksiefase raak. Die Stad Kaapstad beoog om ’n webtuiste te skep om die uitwerking daarvan op verkeer en besighede betyds aan die publiek te kommunikeer om sodoende minimale ontwrigting te veroorsaak.
Die volgende word beplan vir die uitgebreide Strand-seefrontprojek: ) Die herbou van die huidige verbrokkelende seemuur begin in Junie vanjaar en swaar masjinerie, insluitend hyskrane, sal van die Strand se paviljoen-parkeerarea af werk. ) Die hoofdoel vir die oorbou van die seemuur is om te voorkom dat die see oor die muur spoel, veral met springgety, en ook om die verplasing van sand tot op Kusweg te voorkom. ) Die oorbou van die seemuur begin in Junie vanjaar en sal einde 2019
voltooi wees. Sowat R178 miljoen is oor ’n tydperk van drie jaar vir die projek begroot. ) Die seemuur sal herbou word op die voetspoor van die huidige seemuur. ) Die kontrakteurs wat verantwoordelik is vir die opgradering van die paviljoen-gebied sal in Augustus vanjaar aangestel word en die werk aan dié gebied sal in April 2016 begin. ) Die paviljoen se parkeerarea sal in twee dele opgedeel word, met ’n sentrale gebied vir publieke ge-
bruik met sitplekke en plante. ) Die Stad het R13 miljoen vir die paviljoenprojek, wat ongeveer 18 maande sal duur, begroot. ) Die Stad Kaapstad beoog om die Strand-pier te herbou op sy huidige voetspoor. ) Deep Blue, die blou gebou op die strand wat in ’n vervalle toestand is, sal gedurende die projek afgebreek word. ) ’n Deel van die opgegradeerde paviljoen-parkeerarea sal vir informele handel gebruik word. ) Ringe vir die opslaan van stalle-
tjies sal in die plaveisel ingebou word om te voorkom dat ander strukture beskadig word deur die informele stalletjies. ) Oor die lang termyn word beoog om die opslaanstalletjies te vervang met eenvormige waentjies wat weer aan die einde van die dag deur die handelaar verwyder kan word. ) ’n Opedag om die ontwerp van die opgradering van die paviljoengebied en oorbou van die seemuur ten toon te stel, vind vandag (Donderdag) plaas van 16:00 tot 19:00 by die Strand se munisipale gebou.
Sand problems continue at harbour DALEEN FOUCHÉ Thesandbank at theentrance to the Gordon’s Bay Harbour is getting worse and has already left a fishing boat and several yachts stranded for a few hours. The DistrictMail reported last week that a massive sandbank at the entrance of the harbour is preventing vessels from entering or leaving the harbour during low tide (“Dire straits for harbour,” DistrictMail, 19 March). On Friday 20 March, a fishing trawler got stuck on the sandbank whiletryingtogetintotheharbour. The boat was stuck for almost two hours while waiting for high tide, before it could enter the harbour. On Saturday, about nine yachts had to wait several hours before they could return to the harbour
after finishing a club race from Gordon’s Bay to Simon’s Town and back. The race started at 05:00 and the yachts were back at 10:00, but had to wait until 14:00 for high tide to carry them over the sandbank. Paul Tanner, chairperson of the Gordon’s Bay Harbour Users Committee, says the sandbank is growing bigger and predicted that the harbour will be completely blocked within a few weeks if the sand is not removed. He says the Gordon’s Bay Harbour Users Committee has not had any feedback from the authorities on this growing problem. Alven Driver, one of six commercial fishermen operating from the Gordon’s Bay Harbour, says their worst nightmare has now come true X that the harbour has become
dangerous and at times impossible to use. Driver says crew members of the commercial fishing boats working from Gordon’s Bay Harbour were briefed on safety procedures on Tuesday. The NSRI confirmed to the DistrictMail last week that it is able to perform rescue duties with its two rapid response crafts and would not comment on the matter further. However, DistrictMail reported last week that the 13 metre Jack Riley rescue vessel is unable to leave the harbour during the low tide after the spring tide. DistrictMail once again contacted both the Department of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries and the Department of Public Works, who have joint responsibility over the harbour, but received no feedback at the time of going to print.
TAKING SHELTER: A National Geographic Exploration Ship, The Orion, was in False Bay on Monday, close to the Strand and Gor don’s Bay coastline. According to Noeleen Jackson, manager of Manor on the Bay, The Orion arrived in False Bay at 10:00 to take shelter from adverse weather conditions while travelling from Cape Town to Mossel Bay. The coach drivers and guides appointed to meet the ship’s occupants in Mossel Bay backtracked to Gordon’s Bay and spent the night at the Manor on the Bay. The Orion even tually continued its journey at 18:00 on Monday evening.

DRIVER ARRESTED: A 36yearold man was arrested for drunk driving after an acci dent in Sir Lowry’s Pass on Saturday in which an elderly woman was injured. The accident happened at 14:00 on the Old Sir Lowry’s Pass Road, just in front of the entrance to the village, when a MercedesBenz and Toyota Rav collided. According to Sergeant Suzan Jantjies, the Toyota Rav – which the arrested driver had been driving – left the road and went onto the gravel next to the road. The driver then swerved back onto the road across lanes into oncoming traffic and hit the MercedesBenz. The man was granted R1 000 bail in the Somerset West Magistrate’s Court on Monday and his case will be heard on 23 June. PHOTO: DELIAH BRINKHUIS
Gordon-onderwyser met skêr gesteek DELIAH BRINKHUIS ’n Onderwyser aan die Hoërskool Gordon wat drie weke gelede deur ’n leerder met ’n skêr in die kop gesteek is, het vandeesweek weer begin klas gee. Die voorval het Donderdag 5 Maart net ná 13:00 gebeur gedurende ’n ekonomiese en bestuurswetenskappe-les vir ’n gr. 8-klas. ’n Woordewisseling het na bewering tussen die onderwyser en leerder (14) ontstaan, waarna die leerder die skêr uit sy sak gehaal en herhaaldelik na die onderwyser gesteek het. Die onderwyser, wat reeds sowat 28 jaar aan die skool verbonde is, moes steke aan sy kop kry en sy arms en hande het ook snywonde gehad. Volgens skoolhoof Bernard Simons is die leerder tydelik geskors. Jessica Shelver, woordvoerder vir die WesKaapse departement van onderwys (WKOD), sê dieleerderheterkendathydieonderwyserdrie keer gesteek het. Volgens Shelver het die skool se dissiplinêre komitee en die beheerliggaam versoek dat die WKOD permanente skorsing
van die leerder oorweeg omdat hy na bewering geen berou getoon of erken het dat sy optrede verkeerd was nie. Simons sê die leerder is toegelaat om die kwartaallikse kontroletoetse af te lê. Volgens Shelver was daar gister (Woensdag) terugvoering van die ondersoek. Die uitslag van die ondersoek was egter onbekend teen druktyd van die koerant. Simons sê dat dit die tweede steekvoorval by die skool in die bestek van drie weke was. In’nvorigevoorvalop20Februarie,waarnog ’n gr. 8-leerder betrokke was, is ’n matriekleerder met ’n mes in die skouer gesteek. Die mes is kort ná die voorval deur medeleerders weggesteek, maar later in die seunstoilet-afdeling gekry. ’n Seun (14) is intussen geskors. Volgens Simons word leerders soms met ’n draagbare metaalverklikker deursoek vir gevaarlike wapens. Simons sê dié steekvoorvalle is geïsoleerde gevalle. Daar word meestal sigarette of sigaretaanstekers aan leerders gevind. Hy is egter bekommerd nadat hy onlangs ’n mes van sowat 30 cm lank by ’n leerder in die

toilet-afdeling gekry het, waar dit in die lyfband agter in sy broek versteek was. Die leerder het na bewering aangevoer dat hy die mes as beskerming dra nadat hy die vorige week ná skooldetensie naby die skool van sy selfoon beroof is. Volgens Randall Thomas, voorsitter van die beheerliggaam, word hierdie probleme grotendeels onder die gr. 8’s opgemerk. “Dieleerderstoonreedsoplaerskoolgedragsprobleme en ons erf dit.” Thomas voeg by dat dit oorweeg word om dissiplinêre verslae van laerskole aan te vra met aansoeke van leerders. Volgens Shelver sal die WKOD en die Safe Schools-projek die skool ondersteun om leerderveiligheid te verseker. Sy sê verskeie WKOD-programme word aangebied om leerders te weerhou om by bendeverwante of antisosiale aktiwiteite betrokke te raak. Die programme wat in samewerking met die departement van maatskaplike ontwikkeling en gemeenskapsveiligheid aangebied word, sluit ook konflikbestuur en gedragsaanpassing van leerders in. Die Safe Schools-program se tolvrye nommer is 0800 454 647.

New CPF to move forward DALEEN FOUCHÉ Stability has settled over the Somerset West Community Policing Forum (CPF) after the successful election of a new executive committee on Tuesday evening. This is in light of the many troubles that have plagued this community-based structure in recent years. The previous executive committee was restricted in its duties after a complaint was lodged against the Exco with the Department of Community Safety in December 2013. An investigation was launched and the exco was barred from holding public meetings and prevented from filling vacant positions within its executive committee, but could continue with its internal meetings and community operations. Hugh Roe, former chairperson of the Somerset West CPF, previously told the DistrictMail that the furore was over his having been appointed as opposed to being elected. He explains that he was appointed to the position of chairperson in 2012 after the passing of Johnny Brown, who was elected as chairperson in 2010 for a five-year period. The restrictions on the previous exco were lifted in October 2014, followed by the CPF’s first public meeting in over a year. National elections for all CPF bodies were planned for December 2014 but the Somerset West CPF election was postponed after the
representatives from the Department of Community Safety (DOCS) did not arrive at the elections. Another attempt at electing the new exco in January this year failed due to an investigation into the Somerset West Neighbourhood Watch by the Private Security Industry Regulatory Authority (PSIRA). The police’s Cluster Commander, Major General Johan Brand, said at the time that the CPF elections could only continue once the investigation was finalised. Louis le Riche, chairperson of the Somerset West Neighbourhood Watch, says they are still awaiting PSIRA’s official feedback, but have been notified that no criminal misconduct was found. The representive from DOCS, who facilitated the election, told the meeting on Tuesday that Somerset West is not unique in facing many problems within its CPF structure. She says the majority of affluent areas in the Western Cape faces similar problems. Only registered NPOs and formal community structures like schools, churches and neighbourhood watches are allowed to participate in electing a new exco. Billy Smith, who represents the Radloff Park Field of Management Committee, was elected as chairperson and Joe Swart, representing the Night Shelter, was elected deputy chairperson. The secretary position will be filled by a member of the Somerset West police, to be appointed by Police Station Commander, Colonel Mary Ann Williams.
Die polisie swyg steeds om enige nuwe inligting oor die Van Breda-moorde bekend te maak. Ná byna drie maande van die grudaad is niemand nog in hegtenis geneem vir die moord van Martin van Breda, sy vrou, Teresa, en hul oudste seun, Rudi (22), wat in die oggendure van 27 Januarie in hul huis op die De Zalze-landgoed aangetref is nie. Hul dogter, Marli (16), is ook in die voorval aangeval en het ernstige kopbeserings opgedoen. Sy word tans in ’n private rehabilitasiesentrum versorg. Die egpaar se jonger seun, Henri (20), is lig beseer. Hy woon tans by familie in die noordelike voorstede. Die Burger het die afgelope naweek berig ’n selfoon wat die polisie met die moordtoneel van die Van Breda-gesin kan verbind, is glo voor die gesinsmoord gebruik om inligting oor ’n bylmoord in Amerika op te soek. Lt.kol. Andrè Traut, ’n provinsiale polisiewoordvoerder, het gesê hulle gaan nie oor die bewerings kommentaar lewer nie. Die nasionale vervolgingsgesag (NVG) besin ook steeds of iemand vir die Van Breda-moorde in hegtenis geneem gaan word.
THEY DID IT! Helderberg’s famous adventure couple, Vasti Geldenhuys and Riaan Manser, show their delight in completing the gruelling Absa Cape Epic, which finished at Meerendal Wine Estate in Durbanville on Sunday. They agreed that the sevenstage race over 739 km – which included 16 000 me tres of climbing – was incredibly tough and much, much harder than they had anticipated. Vasti, who together with Riaan rowed from Morocco in Africa to New York in the USA last year, said it was the toughest and most rewarding thing she had ever done. Riaan added that it was a lot tougher than he had ever imagined but was pleased that they had both finished and got their medals. “I’m so proud of Vasti. She hung in there and just kept going de spite some heavy falls and a lot of pain.” PHOTO: BELLE HEYNEMAN

Gewilde rugby-ondersteuner sterf Marlene Wells (65), lojale Macassar rugbyondersteuner en netbalspeler van die destydse Protea-netbalklub, is Saterdag 21 Maart na ’n kort siekbed in Tygerberg-hospitaal oorlede. Sy was ’n uiters lojale ondersteuner van Macassar-rugbyklub en het elke wedstryd bygewoon – tuis of weg, reën of sonskyn. Sy was ’n fanatiese ondersteuner wat gedurende wedstryde op en af langs die veld saam met die spelers beweeg het. “Mense van reg oor die Helderberg het haar geken vir haar deelname en ondersteuning op die sportveld,” sê haar skoonseun, Victor Isaacs.
Haar bekende gesegdes op die rugbyveld soos “Not to worry, worry” en vele ander sal beslis gemis word. Marlene se netbal was van so ’n gehalte dat sy die nasionale span kon haal. “Sy het vir jare by Genop Optical in die Kaap gewerk en het nog tot op die ouderdom van 50 netbal gespeel,” vertel Isaacs. Sy laat haar eggenoot, Charles, vyf kinders, skoonseun, nege kleinkinders en twee agterkleinkinders na. Stuward Afrika, ondervoorsitter van die Macassar-rugbyklub, het gesê Marlene was ongetwyfeld hul beste ondersteuner en toeskouer.
“Ons gaan haar gesegdes en ondersteuning verskriklik mis, maar ons gaan dit juis as ons versterking gebruik,” vertel Afrika. Isaacs voeg by dat sy ook vir haar “kleurvolheid en vriendelike karakter onthou sal word”. Die teraardebestelling vind Saterdag 28 Maart om 08:00 vanuit die Anglikaanse kerk, St. Joseph in Macassar plaas.
Marlene en haar man, Charles, het Macas sarrugbyklub se wedstryde altyd saam by gewoon. Sy was ’n gewilde ondersteuner onder die spelers en toeskouers.

Wayne Hindley (43), ’n bekende inwoner van die Strand, het Woensdag 18 Maart tragies gesterf ná ’n fratsongeluk. Hindley was besig met ’n ondersoek op ’n dak toe hy deur die dak geval het. Hy is die bekende bouer, James (Boetie) Hindley, se seun. Hy was ook mede-eienaar van Central Taxis. Almal onthou hom as ’n vriendelike mens wat altyd ander mense goed laat voel het.

Hy het goed na sy familie gekyk en ’n passie vir die vervoerbedryf gehad.” Hy word oorleef deur sy pa, broer, twee susters, lewensmaat, Shanaaz, en hul drie kinders. Sy begrafnis is Saterdag 28 Maart by Helderberg Fellowship-gemeente op die hoek van Ou Sir Lowryspas- en Schapenbergweg, Somerset-Wes.

N2-slagoffer vier 28ste verjaarsdag tuis DELIAH BRINKHUIS Julius Jantjies, die jong slagoffer van ’n N2-aanval op 7 Januarie vanjaar, koester geen wrok teen sy aanvaller nie. Volgens sy ma, Rochelle Jantjies, het hy die man wat hom dié dag met ’n sementblok teen sy kop gegooi het, vergewe.
Julius Jantjies, ’n groot Chelsea sokkeraanhanger, met die verjaar dagkoek wat ’n vriend gebak het.
Groot blydskap het in Jantjies se ouerhuis in Cliftonstraat, Macassar, geheers toe hy die afgelope naweek ná drie maande van hospitalisasie vir die eerste keer tuis was om sy 28ste verjaarsdag Vrydag (20 Maart) saam met sy gesin en vriende te vier. Jantjies was ’n week lank in ’n koma in die Vincent Pallotti-hospitaal ná sy aanval in Januarie. ’n Man wat langs die N2 net voor die R300-afrit gestaan het, het ’n sementblok deur die voorruit van die werksmotor wat hy bestuur het, gegooi en hom in die gesig getref. Die aanval het omstreeks 13:00 gebeur.
Jantjies het sy regteroog se sig verloor en sal in Oktober ’n tweede rekonstruksie-operasie aan sy gesig ondergaan. Volgens Rochelle is sy dankbaar dat haar oudste seun die aanval oorleef het en sy 28ste verjaarsdag met hulle kon vier. Sy suster Virginie en haar man Imraan Ebrahim, wat op die MSC Opera-boot werk en binnekort na Europa sou seil, het hul kontrak van vyf maande verbreek om Julius se verjaarsdag te vier en hul ouers en vir hom te ondersteun. “Julius se aanval was ’n groot skok, en ek wou dadelik huis toe kom,” vertel Virginie, wat ten tyde van die aanval in Durban was. Sy en Imraan was gelukkig die volgende week in Kaapstad en kon haar broer in die hospitaal besoek, waar hul ouers en sy vriendin Nazeerah Ebrahim, daagliks langs sy bed gewaak het. Virginie het in dié tyd ’n gedig aan haar broer opgedra waarin sy haar hoop op sy herstel verwoord. “Julius se aanval was vir ons gesin ’n traumatieseervaringwatdiehegtebandtussen ons net versterk het. Ons is dankbaar vir die Here en trots op Julius dat hy deurentyd positief gebly het en so merkwaardig herstel het,” voeg sy by. Volgens Julius is hy bly om tuis te wees en al sy vriende en mense wat hom in die tydperk ondersteun het weer te sien. Hy was ook opgewonde oor die verjaarsdagpartytjie wat sy vriende Saterdag vir hom gereël het. “Dis lekker om by die huis te wees, veral om

by my ma te wees, in my eie bed te kon slaap en op ons rusbank voor die TV te sit. Ek voel soos my ou self,” sê hy. Julius word môre (Vrydag) uit die hospitaal ontslaan.

Geen inhegtenisname het nog plaasgevind na die twee skietvoorvalle in Sir Lowry’s Pass waarin Ricardo Pietersen (24) en Jason Wessels (17) vroeër die maand gesterf het nie. Die skietvoorvalle het gevolg op drie ander skietvoorvalle tussen bendes die vorige week. Pietersen het op Maandag 9 Maart om 19:30 in Mandela-rylaan in ’n koeëlreën gesterf. Sy dood was na bewering ’n sluipmoord en
Wessels was die teiken. Nog drie persone, insluitend ’n swanger meisie (16), ’n negejarige meisie en ’n seun (17), is beseer toe twee mans met vuurwapens op ’n groep mense wat in die straat gesit het, losgebrand het. Die beseerdes is in die Helderberg- en Tygerberg-hospitale opgeneem. Die negejarige dogter en 17-jarige seun is reeds ontslaan. Wyle Pietersen se swanger vriendin is egter steeds in die hospitaal. Haar toestand en dié van die negejarige is onbekend. Die 17-jarige seun wat ten tye van die

Motorbike accident leaves one critical TAMSYN JANTJIES Alocalmanisinacriticalcondition after he and his son were involved in a motorcycle accident on the R44 near Kogel Bay on Saturday 21 March. According to the Gordon’s Bay Police, the accident happened at 15:50 when a car travelling from Johan van Gordon’s Bay indicated to turn right as the motorbike tried to overtake it. The motorbike crashed into the right hand side of it. The driver of the motorbike, Johan van Niekerk, is in a critical but stable condition in the Mediclinic Milnerton. Surgery was scheduled for his right arm and left shoulder yesterday (25 March). His 14-year-old son is in a stable condition at the Mediclinic Vergelegen in Somerset

Mail Sport uplifts and unites the Helderberg The promotion to the Western Province Cricket Association’s 1 C league for both the Hottentots Holland (HHCC) and Somerset West (SWCC) cricket clubs is not only great news for cricket in the Helderberg, but for sport in general. Both clubs experienced a slump a few years ago, but renewed energy and changes within club structures saw both clubs revitalised and perform well this season. HHCC and SWCC finished in first and second places in the WPCA 1 D league respectively, which automatically qualified them for a spot in the WPCA 1 C league for the 2015/2016 season. This promotion will ensure growth at both clubs, with new players wanting to join the clubs and existing players wanting to stay on, instead of looking for greener pastures. The launch of the inaugural DistrictMail/Macassar Youth Rugby Club’s Sevens Tournament this weekend is another cause for celebration. This will be the very first time ever that an u. 11 and u. 13 youth rugby tournament will be held at the Macassar sports grounds. Hats off to the energetic executive committee of the Macassar Youth Rugby Club for their tireless work in putting this historic tournament together. Without their exuberance and enthusiasm, this tournament would never have got off the ground.
Dankie vir ons wonderwerk Ons as ouers en familie van Julius Jantjies jr., ook bekend as “Jules” en “Joeppies”, bring hulde en dank eerstens aan ons Hemelse vader, en aan Garth Vermeulen vir die erge traumatiese ervaring wat hy vir bykans ’n uur moes deurmaak, terwyl hy aan ons seun lewensondersteuning gebied het. Ons dank ook die persone wat by die toneel gestop het en die nodige hulp ontbied het. Dankie aan die ER noodhulpdienste, die medici van die Vincent Pallotti-hospitaal en ook die rehabilitasiesentrum vir die wonderbaarlike herstel van ons seun. Ons dank die beamptes en gemeentes van die Ou Apostoliese kerk van Afrika, alle kerke, moskees, gebedsgroepe, christelike instellings, sy ongelooflike groot vriendekring en hul families, ons bure en kennisse, sy werkgewer, DTM Nissan en al sy kollegas, selfs
vreemdelinge by die hospitaal vir alle gebede, bemoedigende woorde, ’n handdruk, ’n drukkie, telefoonoproepe, SMSe, Facebook boodskappe, kaartjies en blomme. Dankie vir die DistriksPos vir hul juiste en positiewe beriggewing en selfs die DA se minister van vervoer, Donald Grant, wat ook persoonlik geskakel het vir bemoediging. Uitsonderlike ondersteuning was aan ons gelewer deur verskeie van ons seun se spesiale vriende waarvoor ons ewig dankbaar sal wees. Julius se pad na herstel is en was ongelooflik merkwaardig en hy het selfs die dokters verstom. Hy is ongelooflik positief en ’n ware vegter. Hy het selfs die persoon wat verantwoordelik is vir die insident onvoorwaardelik vergewe en bid vir hom. Ons is so trots op hom. Julius het deur God se gena-
de geen breinskade opgedoen nie en het byna geen tekortkominge nie. Sy sig in sy beseerde regteroog is verswak maar ons bid, glo en vertrou dat dit sal herstel wanneer die rekonstruksie van sy skedel in Oktober sal plaasvind. Ek wil net die waarskuwing aan motoriste oordra (veral aan die eienaars van ouer model voertuie) wat die N2 gebruik, om asseblief hul ruite te vervang met die shatterproof-ruite wat volgens sommige medici in ons seun se geval, ’n beduidende impak op die noodlottigheid van ons seun se beserings gehad het. As daar enige een is wat advies kan bied oor hoe om die blykbaar ongeërgde eienaars van die N2 tot verantwoording te roep, vra ek dat julle asseblief help.

Querying traffic fine is an uphill battle
Thank you, Linmar Pools I would like to take this opportunity to thank the two fine gents at Linmar Pools for their endless patience, excellent advice and caring attitude. We visited them eight times during the past week or so to try get our green pool sparkling and blue. Although we had to do this by trial and error and elimination, we are nearing the end of the battle and hope to obtain excellent results. Thanks, guys.

On Thursday 26 February, I received a fine for allegedly not displaying a license disc. I have had to waste my time and petrol finding out how to resolve this matter. I went to the public prosecutor in Somerset West and he advised me to wait for the summons before proceeding further. Furthermore, I was informed that there is no email address to use to contact the relative department, which in this day and age is unacceptable. Snail mail went out in Jan van Riebeeck’s days, not to mention the ongoing strike actions, which preclude the use of this method of communication. The required license disc was displayed in the recommended position – on the lower left side of the windscreen.
Perhaps the issuing officer is in need of an eye-test, but is still driving around in a motor vehicle. I also assume that, being able to write, that the officer is able to read. I take great exception to this treatment, which I regard as being opportunistic issuing of traffic fines in the hope that the recipient will pay a spot fine without carefully examining the reason for the fine – thus generating income. I am a pensioner and, in light of the new budget, cannot afford extra expenses. I trust the City of Cape Town’s Traffic Services will find this in order, cancel the ticket with immediate effect, reprimand the issuing officer and supply me with a written apology.

Richard Bosman, the City’s director for Safety and Security, responds: “At about 09:50 on Thursday 26 February, an officer from the City’s Law Enforcement Department was on duty with her partner, doing foot patrols at the Caledon Square parking area in Somerset West. The officer observed a white Mercedes Benz with registration number CFM 18*** with a single license disc displayed – the expiry date on the disc was 31 January 2015, with register number KFJ****. The officer then issued a Section 341 notice in the presence of her partner for the offence. The complainant is welcome to dispute the fine by going to the local municipal court and following the correct channels to have the fine reduced or cleared.

nisipaliteit ná die ander swig voor hul eie onbeholpenheid. En hoe moeg KAN ’n mens raak van al die slegte nuus in die koerante? As ek nog een keer te veel moet lees van stakings, oproer, rassisme of sinlose geweld, kan my kop dalk net uithaak! Daarom was dit vir my so lekker om onlangs ’n paar liedjies te gaan sing by die jaarlikse Solms Delta Oesfees, net om die draai van ons af in die Franschhoek-distrik. Vir die uur of twee wat ek daar deur-
gebring het, het ek gevoel ek is waarlik deel van die Nuwe SuidAfrika. Op Solms Delta is die werkers almal vennote en mede-eienaars van die landgoed. En almal kuier saam en maak saam musiek! Dit was nou regtig terapie vir my gees om ’n middag daar deur te bring. Ek hoop dat meer boere in die Boland dié wonderlike voorbeeld sal volg wat gestel word deur gemeenskappe soos Solms Delta, Beyerskloof en ander plase waar die waardes van ’n demokratiese Suid-Afrika waarlik uitgeleef word. Sulke plekke is soos klein vlammetjies van optimisme en hoop in ’n donker, moedelose land.

Among the guests who attended a presentation by Dr Colleen Hiscock of the Somerset West Family Practice at 15 St James Street on how DermaPulse and Dr Hiscock’s practice could benefit patients were (from left) Ceorlea Dahl (medical rep), Caroline Lindes (DermaPulse skin laser clinic), Dr Colleen Hiscock and Rene Campbell (medical rep).
Lindes explained that the two practices often worked hand in hand, which is why they decided to join forces. A number of Dr Hiscock’s patients, together with medical reps, were invited to a presentation at Dr Hiscock’s rooms on 11 March where it was explained how the two practices would work together. Lindes said that very often a patient would see the doctor about a serious skin condition such as acne or skin pigmentation and the doctor would prescribe medication to be taken internally. She added that to complement the medication, her practice would then administer aesthetic treatments such as chemical peels to help the patient look better as well. Lindes added that because she was

HOSPICE DONATION: When the Hertex show room in Somerset West was approached by interior designer Nessa Temlett to supply curtain fabric for the wards at Hospice House, the staff decided to do something special. Dawn Eras mus called the company sales director, who immediately agreed to donate all the fabric required. As several employees of the group have either undergone cancer treatment or received Hospice care, this was a way to not only say thank you but to also provide directly for the patients currently at Hospice House. Temlett is herself a cancer survivor and has given her design services free of charge as a way of celebrating her health. At the presentation were Hertex staff Delmarie Windvogel, Leandra Kriel and Dawn Erasmus.

Use the technology used by Hussain Bolt Electro Muscle Stimulation (EMS) has been around since the 1950s, but has recently become the fastest growing wellness and fitness trend globally. This has been led by miha-bodytec, the award winning German company that is leading the research, development, and design of EMS technology. Body20 Studio is powered by miha-bodytec and offers the ultimate in muscle strengthening, body shaping, cellulite reduction and weight loss programmes. Studies have shown that a 20 minute session is the equivalent of between four and six hours worth of gym exercise. The world’s fastest man, Hussain Bolt, uses miha bodytec technology, as does the Alpine skiing world champion Jean-Baptiste Grange. Miss Universe and one of the princesses also use EMS to keep toned and in shape. The technology works by sending electrical stimulation directly to the deep stabilising muscles that are difficult to reach with conventional methods. This makes it possible to train and stimulate the entire musculature whilst avoiding stress on joints from weights or high impact exercise. Body20 Studio offers a “Power20”programme designed for strength and fitness training, and a “Cellulite20” programme to aggressively target cellulite and fat loss. “Power20” EMS allows more intense and stronger muscular contractions than could be achieved by voluntary exertion, and enable you tobuildstrongermuscleandachievebetterdefinition.
Basically, your muscles become more efficient. Electrical impulses control the fasttwitch muscle fibres directly, so not only do you gain maximum performance by boosting strength, but also an increase in speed of movement. Many people eat healthy food to lose weight and centimetres, but this alone will not achieve best results – you need regular exercise and training to reduce fat and cellulite. “Cellulite20” activates the muscular and connective tissue in problem areas, leading to the reduction of fat cells by increasing circulation. You will perceive a difference with a firmer tighter body in a short period of time. Twenty minutes a week will change your life. “Body20 Studio” is an innovative approach to physical fitness and overall well-being. The studio has a varied cross-section of customers, from a 70-year-old lady with arthritis to a 19-year-old top ranked biathlete and provincial swimmer. They have many cyclists who are gaining immense benefit, and provincial ball room dancers who compete successfully at national level. On the other side of the spectrum they have professional business owners and mothers in post natal recovery. They design specific training routines for eachindividualguaranteeingresultsinthefastest and most efficient way possible. Your journey to a stronger, fitter, healthier and slimmer you begins at Body20 Studio at Shop 10, Fountain Square.

Step up to the open microphone There will be an open mic/ closed mic musical evening at Triggerfish Brewery on Wednesday 1 April from 18:45 until about 21:00. These open mic/closed mic sessions are held at Triggerfish on the first Wednesday of every month at the same times. There are usually between two to three sets of musicians/ groups which play – and the organisers need two acts for Wednesday 1 April. Musicians keen on sharing their musical talents in a relaxed setting can contact Judy Brower or Paul Fletcher (thefletchers@cch.co.za). Musicians need to have about 20 to 30 minutes of play
at the ready – and this can be blues, jazz, rock, classical or whatever really. The idea is to promote local talent and give the bands or musicians a platform to play in public. There is no payment for playing but the pub at Triggerfish will sponsor a beer or two. If this feels a little too public, musicians can also attend an open mic evening at the Fletcher’s house in Somerset West, which is held quarterly. Contact them on thefletchers@cch.co.za. Musicians can then play one or three numbers. Bring a picnic and relax. For more information contact Judy on 076 011 0753 or on 021 851 2737.

Macassar end season with an emphatic win Macassar beat Kensington by an innings and 58 runs in their last First Division D two-day match of the 2015 season played at the Kensington fields last weekend.
WINNING BOWLERS: The team from the Strand Bowling Club were the winners of the recently completed Pensioners Tournament, played over six weeks, which ended on Tuesday 10 March. A total of 36 bowls teams from the Helderberg, Edgemead, Dur banville, Stellenbosch, Kleinmond and Hermanus competed in this popular competition played on a strength versus strength format and divided into three sections after the halfway stage. The competition has been sponsored for the past 14 years by the Per sonal Trust Investment Company, who in partnership with the Helderberg Bowling Club, sponsored a magnificent new trophy. In recognition of his contribution in running this prestigious competition over the past 11 years, the president handed over the trophy inscribed as the John Arguile Pensioners League Trophy to the winning skip. With the trophy are John Arguile (Helderberg Bowling Club), Mark Gibbs (representing the spon sors) and Chris Fenton, Hugo Hofmeyer, Johan Heydenrych and Jan Rall (Strand).
Kensington won the toss and elected to bat and the Macassar bowlers toiled hard to the break-through, which came in the 19th over when S Levendal picked his first wicket with the score on 29/1 . Wickets fell regularly after that and Kensington were struggling on 56/6 after 30 overs and went to lunch on 65/7 after 33 overs. After lunch Macassar bowled out Kensington for 106/10 in 52 overs. The best bowler on the day was S Levendal with 13-4-19. He was well supported by J Fortuin 16-2-35, N Swartland 11-2-29 and D Sebastian 11-1-26. Macassar lost a wicket in the second over with the score on 2/1. T Kemp was joined by A Roberts who put together a 38 run partnership for the second wicket before Roberts (8) was caught behind with the score on 40/2 after 16 overs. T Kemp (48*) continued to bat well and with Q Bowman (16*) took the score to 76/2 at tea. Kemp reached his half century after tea and
Bowman (17) was dismissed with the score on 82/3. J Fortuin (38) joined Kemp and took the attack to the bowlers with a 74 run partnership which took the score to 156/4. Macassar lost two more wickets with the score on 176/6, but Kemp continued to bat well and went on to score a brilliant maiden century (111*) to take the score to 217/7 with the support of S Jantjies (21). Skipper N Swartland declared the Macassar innings on 217/7. This left Kensington with still 13 overs to bat in the day and 111 runs in arrears. J Fortuin bowled Kensington’s opener with the first ball of the second innings with the score on 0/1. Macassar got two run-outs in this spell leaving the home team on 5/3 after 4 overs. J Fortuin 3/13 took two more wickets and N Swartland 1/15 to leave Kensington on 28/6 in 13 overs and still 83 runs behind Macassar’s first innings total. Day two was delayed due to rain and when play got under way, J Fortuin, who ended the match with 14-6-15, wrapped up the Kensington innings very quickly with their score on 53/10 after 27 overs. He was assisted by D Sebastian 5-1-7.
Shore anglers bag elf, kob, wildeperd and galjoen One is often asked about the use of poppers to catch leerfish and elf from our reefs and beaches. Lures are sometimes more successful in catching elf and leerfish from ledges or casting them or trolling from boats and kayaks.

I have sometimes observed anglers casting a plug from our beaches with no success while others spinning with metal spinners have had better results. So far this season more leerfish have been caught on spinners than on other lures. One of our best local spinnermen has resorted to using two small links in tandem by coupling three treble hooks. He has had better results and has lost fewer lures, which flings out the treble hook. Local spinnermen are still having success with Numbers 2, 22, 10 and 7 spinners when using multiplier reels as well as the No 18 and 20 spinners and other small spinners used with light tackle and fixed spool reels (coffee grinder). During the weekend a number of anglers fishing from our reefs caught elf, wildeperd and size galjoen. The Harmony Park fishermen reported fair catches of galjoen, dassie and kob, as well as the odd elf and white stumpnose. Ferdi Joubert who fished in the Pearly Beach competition held on Saturday, said the event was a mixed bag of fortunes. Thirty two fish were weighed in, mostly kob, although a

number of anglers had no success at all. Johan de Kock won the competition with five kob with a total weight of 30,45 kg. Second was Hannes Smuts with 4 kob and third was Robert Pace with 5 kob (small). The best kob weighed 10,45 kg and was caught by Hannes Smuts. Most of the fish were taken between Brandfontein and Agulhas. Club anglers fishing in the monthly WP Shore Angling Association’s competition weighed in mostly sharks and rays. The heaviest shark was a 205 kg ragged tooth shark caught by Deon van Zyl of Tygerberg club which earned him first place. Alan du Plessis said there was very little boating angling at Arniston on Sunday, but he tagged and released some nice kob and elf near “Die Mond”. On Saturday and Sunday there were a number of craft fishing for mackerel at Hottentots bank, one mile off the Poort in the Strand. Locals fishing in small boats and kayaks in the Strand poort had a few smaller kob, elf and geelbek (Morocco size). A very recent and encouraging develop-
ment is that the environmental crime committee are investigating the rights of all the trek net fishermen who use this outdated method, which often kills off thousands of undersize and out of season fish. The general public and fishing fraternity have for many years protested against this destruction, which only benefits a few.

Baie beter vertoning deur Helderberg Rugblyklub teen Villager Helderberg het in sy derde en laaste opwarmingswedstryd teen Villager baie beter gevaar as verlede week, maar moes nogtans die knie buig met 45-31. Was dit nie vir hul stadige begin nie, kon die uitslag anders daaruit gesien het. Die besoekers was die eerste helfte beter daaraan toe en het met rustyd 26-7 voorgeloop. Helderberg moes ‘catch-up’ speel in die tweede helfte wat hulle met 24-19 ‘gewen’ het. In die eerste helfte het losskakel Brendan Smith gaan druk en heelagter Gavern Skippers het verdoel. Ná rustyd het Helderberg se lostrio, agtsteman Alvino Ant-
hony en flanke Andri Blom en Adie Abrahams, hul stempel op die wedstryd afgedruk. Die kranige drietal was baas in die losspel en het goed geskakel met hul agterlyn, vir wie hulle talle kanse geskep het. Heelagter Gavern Skippers het gaan druk voordat losskakel Brendan Smith sy tweede drie gedruk het. Plaasvervanger-vleuel Ryan Solomons het deurgesny vir sy drie en laat in die wedstryd het nommer agt, Alvino Anthony, sy span se vyfde drie gedruk. Senter Deon Taljaard, wat die stelskopwerk oorgeneem het, slaag met twee doelskoppe. Die tweede span het ’n 42-10 sege oor hul Villager-eweknie be-
haal met ses verdoelde drieë. Die driedrukkers was Manie Darries (2), Paul Zietsman (2), Robin Kuys en Kurtley Johnson. Manie Darries het vyf doelskoppe bygevoeg vir ’n persoonlike bydrae van 20 punte. Carl Block het die sesde doelskop behaal. Ánder uitslae: Helderberg Crusaders 56 - Villager III 5, Helderberg o. 20A 21 -Villager o. 20A 17. Hierdie Vrydagaand reis die Crusaders na Milnerton om op Theo Marais Park met Unie-Milnerton kragte te meet. Die afskop is 19:30. Die ligaverpligtinge begin op Saterdag 11 April en Helderberg speel dan op Brookside teen Villager.

TWO LOCAL CRICKET CLUBS PROMOTED TO WPCA 1 C LEAGUE
SWCC in AMA 20 final Somerset West Cricket Club’s first team ended their 2014-’15 season on a high this weekend by winning both their two-day and oneday league matches.
Their decisive 10-wicket win in their two-day match over Elsies River/Northlink College on Saturday secured them promotion to the 1C league alongside Hottentots Holland Cricket Club (HHCC) next season. On Sunday they defeated HHCC by one wicket in a nailbiting WPCA 1D final. SWCC continued their twoday match against Elsies River/Northlink College at Radloff Park on Saturday with the visitors trailing by 69 runs with two wickets down. SWCC kept the pressure on the visitors through some disciplined bowling and this, supported by tight fielding, saw Elsies River all out for 122, leaving SWCC a target of 29 runs for victory and promotion. Francois Kilian’s 13-6-27 together with two wickets each by spinners James Wilshere and Steven Southey ended the visitors’ innings. SWCC wrapped the game up within 7 overs. On Sunday SWCC hosted HHCC at Radloff Park. SWCC Skipper, Steven Southey, won the toss and sent HHCC in to bat. The home side’s tight bowling and sharp fielding dried up the runs for the visitors who scored 55/1 after 19 overs. The continued pressure led to two more quick wickets, but HHCC recovered to put on a 40-run 4th wicket partnership. Relentless pressure saw the visitors go from 104/3 to 139 all out in 48 overs.
Van Reenen top scored with 28 and was ably assisted by Ridah Rhoda with 25 runs. Skipper Steven Southey led the SWCC attack with figures of 8.4-4-26. Dean Vincent, James Wilshere and Michael Osborn all chipped in with a few wickets. SWCC were cruising in their run chase with a first-wicket partnership of 57 between Francois Kilian and Peter Baumeister and a second-wicket partnership of 30 between Kilian and Bobby Londt. The HHCC bowlers then took charge in spectacular fashion with seam bowler Ziyaad Salie taking 7 wickets for 38 runs to have SWCC tottering on 125/9. This left Donovan Martin and Dean Vincent to score 15 runs off 7 overs. They kept their nerve to secure a onewicket win and the title. Francois Kilian top scored with 47 runs. The second team beat Avendale by one run in their twoday away match on Saturday. SWCC resumed their innings on 105/4 and were all back in the hut for 185. Avendale required 158 for the win after their first innings lead of 27. Man of the match Arnand Swart opened the bowling and ended his spell with figures of 23-5-48. Daniel Pieterse assisted him with 6-2-13. The third team lost to Cravenby on Saturday by 43 runs. Cravenby batted first and scored 195/5. SWCC were all out for 152. Nick van der Vyfer top scored with (45*). The executive of SWCC invites all Helderberg cricket fans to support the SWCC first team in their WPCA AMA20 final at Newlands on Sunday at 14:00. Entry is free.
