15 December 1966 – 14 January 2024 My dear beloved brother.

You were the best brother anyone could dream of having. You fought your lifelong battle with epilepsy with such courage and dignity. You are now free of your lifetime suffering.

May you rest in peace and fly high with the angels.

Your beloved sister, Jacqui Mitchell.

A very special thank you to Dr Rowan Venter, to all the medical staff at Knysna Life Private hospital, to Loeriehof, Paradise Manor, the Epilepsy Centre in Knysna and to Charmaine, Colleen, Stephen and Pauline for the amazing care and love that was given to Geoffrey over the years.

Funeral service will be held on Tuesday 23rd January 2024 at 11h00 at the chapel at Perks Funeral Home, Rawson Street, Knysna.

The owners and staff of Kings Sports Bar & The Saloon are sad to inform all its loyal customers who were part of our journey for 17 exciting years, that these establishments will be permanently closed as from 1 February 2024 due to new building developments taking place in Pledge Square.

We would like to sincerely thank everyone who walked through our doors for their support.

It is, however, time for exciting new ventures and we would like to keep our customers happy and invite everyone to join us at either UPTOWN RESTOBAR on the corner of Fitchat and Grey Streets or THE SHED at 9 Spring Street, Central Knysna.

Both establishments have a brand new look and you’ll be pleasantly surprised to see how much more is on offer to you, our loyal customers e.g. new delicious food- and drink menus, in- and outdoor seating and sufficient parking. At THE SHED even the kids can be entertained under the trees in the play area.

Hope to see you soon!

STOEP CHAT at Action Ads

18 January 2024

Tripping the Light Fantastic We had the most brilliant experience on Saturday night - dancing on stars at Nature’s disco!

We were staying with my sister Julie when one of our friends on the beach at Noetzie sent a pic of a wave breaking with a shimmering blue light.

Julie jumped up and said: “Come, let’s go and watch! I knew this would happen because we had a red de today.”

We all jumped into the Landie, shot off to the beach and walked onto the cool sand.

What a sight!

It was a dark night and the Milky Way was brilliant with millions of stars, and every me a wave broke there was a flash of cobalt blue that shot along the wave’s crest like blue lightning. It was truly splendid.

We have seen this phenomenon over the years at Noetzie, and had always called it “phosphorescence”, but that’s not the right word. Phosphorescence is something different. The blue shine we see in the waves is called “bioluminescence” – light created by living organisms, in this case microscopic plankton.

We walked in the dark towards the sea, watching the brilliant blue waves break. Then as we reached the wet sand, the ground around our feet suddenly lit up with a thousand blue sparkles. Each footstep we took brought a ring of ny blue lights shimmering around our feet - bioluminescent plankton in the wet sand.

It was such fun! I ran and skipped and danced on the sand, watching these li le stars of brilliant blue erup ng around each footstep. We had stars above us, stars at our feet - and blue lightning in the breakers. It was wonderful.

All this was the result of the red de we had seen at Noetzie that day.

The red de was apparently pre y extensive, stretching from Lambert’s Bay on the West Coast to Ple enberg Bay. Many of you will have seen it, an orange smudge on the surface of the sea, almost a coral colour, thick in places. It looked beau ful against the deep blue ocean.

Red des, also called algal blooms, are caused by a “popula on explosion” of microscopic plankton. This occurs when sea temperatures are just right, the sea is calm and there is an abundance of nutrients.

Plankton contain pigments – green, red, orange, brown or even purple – so the colour of red des varies according to which species has mul plied en masse.

It is these same microscopic organisms that create the blue, or some mes green, light in the sea at night.

One of them is Noc luca scin llans, a dinoflagellate. Its name comes from the La n Noc luca, meaning “light at night”, and scin llans, meaning “shining”. Very apt name.

Apparently bioluminescent plankton do not glow all the me because it takes energy to make the chemicals that create light.

So when do they glow? Some scien sts think that they light up to scare away predators. They also think the light may a ract bigger predators that then eat those that were preying on the plankton.

They don’t really know.

Whatever the reason, aren’t we lucky to be able to witness the splendour of one of Nature’s dazzling secrets?
