CHUCKLE A blonde goes to her doctor and says that every time she drinks a coffee her eye hurts. The doctor prepared her a hot, fresh cup of coffee to see what really happens. She took a sip of the coffee and screamed, "Ouch, that hurts!" The doctor said, "I know your problem." The blonde asked, "Is it bad, doctor?" The doctor replied, "No, you just need to take your spoon out of your cup before you drink your coffee.“ Klein Jannie en sy gesin eet Sondag middag by Ouma. Net toe almal aan tafel is, begin Ouma die kos opskep. Toe Jannie sy bord kos ontvang, begin hy dadelik eet.

"Jannie, asseblief!!" sê sy ma. "Wag asseblief tot ons gebid het."

"Ek hoef nie," sê hy dadelik.

"Natuurlik moet jy!" antwoord sy ma. "Ons bid altyd voor ons by die huis eet."

"Ja, maar dit is by ons huis" verduidelik Jannie.

"Maar hierdie is Ouma se huis, en sy weet hoe om te kook."

the department of water & sanitation revised the estimated cost to R3.5bn.

“However, after more than three years of limbo, we expect the total costs to exceed R4bn,” Van der Westhuizen said. More delays, expected due to mounting procurement challenges, will result in further costs, he said. Van der Westhuizen pointed out that the SA National Roads Agency (SANRAL) has already completed a new section of the N7 to run past the dam to allow for the increased dam wall height.

“This shows just how much time and resources have already gone into this endeavour.” Meyer said in his response that construction of the dam

wall is now on hold while only 12% of the project had been completed to date. “[The department] is now in the process of considering a new implementation model that involves the appointment of the Development Bank of Southern Africa as an implementing agent to carry out the implementation of the project,” he said. In a statement released late in 2021 after an oversight visit by water & sanitation minister Senzo Mchunu, the department said raising of the Clanwilliam Dam wall was the second-biggest infrastructure project undertaken in the Western Cape.

INSPIRATION

Give God your weakness and He’ll give you his strength HEUNINGDRUPPELS | WILLEM BOTHA “Ek kyk op na die berge: waarvandaan sal daar vir my hulp kom?” (Ps. 121:1) ’n Vraag, ’n versugting van iemand wat benoud is, wat verdwaal is, wat raad nodig het, wat nie weet wat die volgende stap is nie. Jy ken dalk daai gevoel – jy staar teen die plafon of ’n muur vas, jy staan voor ’n kruis, jy tuur in die verte, jy kyk na ’n hoogte of luister na die gedruis van die see en jy vra: waar sal ek hulp kry? Ek dink “die berge” waarna die Psalm verwys is seker Sionsberg wat algemeen bekend gestaan het as die blyplek van God, wat gekenmerk is as die plek waar God teenwoordig is, waar Jerusalem en die tempel was. Die skrywer soek seker nie sy hulp by die berge self of by die natuur of ’n skepping groter as hyself nie, hy kyk op na waar God teenwoordig is, na ’n plek waar hy hoop dat God sy uitroep sal hoor. Waar soek jý jou hulp as jy nie meer weet waarheen nie? By mense? By geld? By die kerk? By gebedskettings? Of by die Here self, dié Een wat alles gemaak het, dié Een wat alles weet, dié Een wat jou beskerm, dié Een wat jou nooit in die steek sal laat nie, dié Een wat nooit slaap nie, dié Een wat nie sal toelaat dat jy struikel nie, dié Een wat weer ’n uitkoms sal bewerk, dié Een wat sy hand na jou uitsteek om jou op te help, dié Een wat daar by jou teenwoordig is en nie êrens ver op ’n berg bly nie. Toe ek hierdie Psalm weer gelees het, het ek gedink daar is dalk ’n ander kant aan “ek kyk op na die berge”. Die skrywer (pelgrim) het dalk voor ’n hoë, onoorkomelike berg te staan gekom en gewonder hoe hy dié struikelblok gaan aanpak. Moontlik het hy nie ’n antwoord by die berg gesoek nie, die berg was dalk juis sy probleem. Jy ken seker ook hierdie gevoel. ’n Opdraande, ’n moeilike pad, ’n kronkelpad, ’n donker pad en jy weet nie hoe om die pad aan te durf nie, jy sien nie ’n volgende vastrapplek om oor die berg voor jou te kom nie. Die berg van bekommernis, die berg van siekte, die berg van ’n operasie, die berg van werksoek, die berg van platsak wees – jy was al daar, of jy is nóú daar. Ons was so paar weke gelede in Clarens en het tot op die hoogste punt van daai berg (ek dink dis die Rooiberge) opgeklim wat so mooi uitkyk oor die dorp. As jy van onderaf kyk kan jy dalk dink dit gaan te moeilik wees, maar as jy begin stap, sien jy gou daar is ’n mooi gemerkte paadjie, hier en daar ’n klip vir jou neergesit as trappie, ’n riviertjie waar jy jou warm gesig kan afspoel of bietjie rus. As jy die pad-pyltjies bly volg, al lyk dit of dit nie die regte paadjie is nie, as jy aanhou en deurdruk, wanneer jy voel nou kan jy nie verder nie, dan is jy skielik bo en word jy beloon met die mooiste uitsig. Dán voel jy tevrede. Dán voel dit of jy die berg oorwin het. Dán kan jy dankbaar terugkyk na die hulp wat langs die pad was. Die Here sal jou nie alleen los voor jou berg nie. Hy sal ’n pad wys. Hy sal ’n vastrapplek gee. Hy sal jou dra as dit nodig is. Hy sal jou aanmoedig. Hy sal ’n rusplek en lafenis langs die pad verskaf. Hy sal jou lei tot by ’n mooi uitsig. Vat sy hand en klim die steilte.

Daar ís ’n pad oor die berg. Daar ís hulp by die Here

Druiwe oeste word in grootmaat gesteel VREDENDAL | DAWN ELS Met die druif-oesseisoen op hande het diewe aktief begin druiwe steel in die Olifantsriviervallei. Heelwat sake is die afgelope tyd by SAPD aangemeld en

verskeie arrestasies is reeds gemaak. Van die beskuldigdes is gevang waar hulle druiwe in vullisdromme wegry en sommiges gebruik

kruiwaens. Hierdie diefstalle knou die ekonomie van die landbouprodusente wat op goeie oeste staatmaak om hul inkomste te verdien. Die

publiek word gemaan om hulle te weerhou van hierdie misdrywe wat die landbouers seermaak.

Drie plase brand weivelde vernietig VANRHYNSDORP | DAWN ELS 'n Brand wat vermoedelik deur weerlig veroorsaak is, het sowat 7000 hektaar oor drie plase verbrand. Die eerste nooddienste het sowat 16:30 reeds begin en teen 23:00 was alles onder beheer. Daar was geen beserings maar weivelde, pypleiding en lyndrade is beskadig in die brande.

In watter boksie pas jy?

Jy is té sag. En dan jy is te hard. Dan is jy te desperaat. Of heeltemal in 'n ander klas. Of die hoë klas of die lae klas (jy as jy bok twee letters verder te gereeld sê)- bietjie te rof en onbeskof. Of jy kan nie saampraat nie. Nie oor sport nie en ook nie oor "clubbing" nie. Maar jy ken van Rommel, Mengele, Stalin en Midas of Icarus.

Dan is jou agtergrond ingekleur met die regte of verkeerde van. Daai vraag van watter (voeg van in) is jy om jou in die "join" boks met Nee-Nee te prop of uit te haal om die status van die wat jou benodig om in te pas, op te tel. Dit lyk my ek gaan vir altyd op die rak sit omdat daar nie 'n boksie vir my ontwerp is nie. Ek pas in die boks waar ek heeltemal lief mag raak. Waar ek gedigte vir 'n geliefde, wat die eroskliere van my kielie, en

waarna ek smag om met my woorde te mag skryf. Onvoorwaardelik.Ek smag daarna om my passie met hom te deel. Meeste van die tyd as 'n verrassing met kerslig, keurgeregte uit my kombuis en net jy wat daarvan hou om bederf te word.Ek wens ek word verras met net so af en toe 'n bossie blomme net vir my. Nie gekoop. Self gepluk. Of 'n bondel hout vir ons kaggelvuur sonder dat ek daaraan hoef te gedink het. Miskien sal my dag kom en my Icarus het vlerke wat nie smelt nie, Midas verhonger nie van my kos met liefde bedien nie. Net lekkertes gedeel sonder om goud te word. Jy hoef nie 'n miljarder te wees nie. Net jouself en die wil en ywer om saam met my net "happy" te wil wees en mekaar se drome aan te vul. Snaaks die ou wat

Week 1 Die pyn is duidelik sigbaar op sy gesig. Daar waar sy in die idioot van 'n Jacques se arms lê sal dit wat kon wees net nooit vir hulle wees nie.

Daar waar hulle onder de boom buite die koshuis van Hoërskool Carpe Diem sit, staan, lê en vry en rook terwyl iemand pos vang dat ou Willemse hulle nie vang nie. Terug by Zani wie se tong diep in Venter se keelgat wegraak. Hy's 'n vriend niks meer nie. Nie dat hy net 'n vriend wil wees nie. Zani Pieterse sal hom nooit die kans gee nie. Hy skrik toe hy sy naam hoor. "Paul-Ryk foon" Hy sug, kyk 'n slag weer in haar rigting voordat hy die stompie dooddruk en 'n lyn maak om die foon te antwoord.

Zani is in die sewende hemel. Sy sterk hande met are wat soos 'n padkaart oor sy arms loop, daai six pack lyf, daai package onder die stywe gilbert rugby broek..Jacques van Eck en Zani Pieterse 'n item. Vir jare was hy en sy eks die who's who van Carpe Diem. Danksy 'n haar hokkie talent het sy nie twee keer gedink om die beurs by Carpe Diem Hoër te aanvaar nie. Sy wonder vir 'n oomblik of hy nog aan sy eks Belinda dink. Sy's bly die cheater het uitgekom en hulle nou publicly 'n item kan wees. Die skelm gevryery agter die pawiljoene, in die skoolbus en sexting via whatsapp tot watter ure in die oggend was tog die moeite werd gewees...

Baked Chicken with Cream Cheese dipping Sauce Prep Time: 20 minutes Cook Time: 30 minutes Crispy coated chicken served with a creamy, cheesy dip.

Cream Cheese Dipping Sauce 175 g SPAR Traditional Cream Cheese ¼ cup (60 ml) SPAR Chutney 30 ml chopped coriander

Ingredients (4) 2kg SPAR IQF Chicken, defrosted 2 SPAR Chicken Stock Cubes 2 L water 1 cup (250 ml) SPAR Cake Flour 2 SPAR Eggs, beaten 2 cups (500 ml) SPAR Cornflakes SPAR Frozen Oven Chips

Method Par cook the chicken pieces in boiling water and stock cubes for 10 minutes.

Place the Cornflakes in a clean plastic bag, and bash lightly with a rolling pin or something heavy, until crumbs form. Season the flour with salt and pepper and coat the chicken. Dust off any excess flour. Dip the chicken into egg and then roll in cornflake crumbs to coat. Bake chicken in oven at 180C for 25 – 30 minutes or until crispy and cooked through. To make the dipping sauce, mix all ingredients together and chill in fridge.

Belinda staan by die Koshuis venster en hou die twee lovebirds dop.

"Slet"... dink sy terwyl sy Zani se hande stip dophou waar die te gemaklik bo daardie broek raak. Sy raak naar as sy kyk hoe Jacques met haar hare speel...dis sy ding om sy hande so deur 'n girl se hare te trek.

Net soos hy sy merrie roskam vir gymkhana...Oh well, sy't genoeg op Jacques om hom te laat suffer maar dis daai klein merrie wat regtig die payback van haar lewe gaan kry.

Want jy sien Belinda de Klerk kry altyd haar sin. Dit wat pappie se geld nie kan koop nie, kan altyd op ander maniere bekom word. Zani het nie 'n idee wat op haar wag nie...

AFRICAN BLACK OYSTERCATCHER | HAEMATOPUS MOQUINI APPEARANCE The adult oystercatcher is entirely black with bright red eyes surrounded by an orange ring. The wedge-like orange-tipped red bill is somewhat longer than the head and the mandibles do not meet at the tip. The sides of the bill are compressed to form thin blades at the tip. The three-toed legs are short and red. The immature oystercatcher is a duller mottled brown-black with a white underpart and brownish-orange legs.

AFRICAN BLACK OYSTERCATCHER DIET Their diet consists of mussels, limpets, polychaetes (worms), whelks and crustaceans. The powerful neck muscles and long blade shaped bill is specifically adapted to jab between the partly opened valves of mussels to get the flesh out.

AFRICAN BLACK OYSTERCATCHER CALL The African black oystercatcher produces a clear repeated ‘klee-weep’ sound to communicate. When in danger the alarm call is a series of sharp ‘pip pip pip’ sounds.

AFRICAN BLACK OYSTERCATCHER BREEDING Breeding time in South Africa is from October to March.

The females lay one to four eggs in a simple shallow nest in the ground excavated in sandy soil and lined with rocks, bits of debris or a few pieces of broken shells. The eggs are stone-coloured, with blotches varying from pale purple to dark blackish brown. The eggs are incubated by both parents for about 28-30 days and the chicks are unable to fly until about 45 days old.

AFRICAN BLACK OYSTERCATCHER STATUS The African black oystercatcher is a common resident in South Africa but is considered vulnerable.

HABITAT In South Africa, the African black oystercatcher is found living among the rocky and sandy seashore, islands and occasionally lagoons and estuaries. The oystercatcher is widely distributed along the shorelines of Southern African and can be seen on rocky coasts and beaches as well as lagoons and estuaries.

THE OLD FRIEND This mission reunites him with Whistler Macaskill - a local poacher, Fin's teenage intimate, and possessor of a long-buried secret. THE FINAL CHAPTER But when this reunion takes a violent, sinister turn and Fin puts together the fractured pieces of the past, he realizes that revealing the truth could destroy the future.

THE CULL | TONY PARK R288.00 | CALL 073 847 2468 TO ORDER The war to save Africa's wildlife is fought on many fronts.

For former mercenary Sonja Kurtz the opportunity to head up an elite squad tasked with taking down the continent's poaching kingpins is a chance to strike at the heart of the enemy.

Financed by British billionaire Julianne Clyde-Smith, the pair hope to bring about real change. But as their operation progresses, the new unit's activities soon draws them into the firing line of The Scorpions. A ruthless underworld syndicate willing to do anything to protect their bloodthirsty trade. When Sonja's love interest, safari guide and private detective Hudson Brand, is employed to investigate the death of an alleged poacher at the hands of the team, their mission comes under intense scrutiny. As darker forces come into play and the body count rises, Sonja is forced to consider if Julianne's crusade has gone too far and what she could lose if she continues with the increasingly bloody campaign . . .
